The Next-Gen Predator in ‘Popular Science’

Jennifer — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 14:16:59 +0000

Popular Science tackles the thorny issue of remote-control warfare and, in particular, the intensified efforts to train thousands of drone pilots to fly them, immediately. As usual, Bonnier’s science title ranges far and wide. The September issue covers hot new products, such as a 41-inch wraparound computer display (ideal for gaming), profiles of high-school-dropout inventors and a great piece of service journalism about college programs with lots of hands-on training in the sciences and technology. Then, there is this item for the truly ambitious: “How to Make a Star.” (No, we don’t mean the American Idol kind.)

Pop Sci Details Revamp of Army’s Black Hawk

Jennifer — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 16:03:18 +0000

Popular Science’s “How it Works” cover package fronts the Army’s Black Hawk helicopter, which is getting an upgrade from manufactucturer Sikorsky after 30 years of service. The new and improved Black Hawk gets more power — 3,988 horsepower — generates lift from stronger, composite rotors, and becomes the Army’s first fly-by-wire helicopter. Of course, the “How it Works” feature covers much more than military hardware. NASA’s new, astronaut escape pod and a kickin’ power drill by Hitachi are but two examples…

From Outdoor Life: Grand Slam Gobblers!

Jennifer — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 17:22:15 +0000

Sure, the cover story is about bagging your best winter buck ever — with a beautiful specimen staring alertly amidst the falling snow. But inside, on page 97, is the story of a couple of fellas chasing the Grand Slam of gobbler hunting through the very heart of America’s wild turkey country. That is, they traveled 1,800 miles through eight states in eight days, looking to bag all four turkey subspecies: the venerable Gobbler Grand Slam. There is all kinds of great content in the December/January Double isssue of Outdoor Life, including a sportsman’s gift guide. But this turkey quest may be the highlight, and a great example of the father-son, or buddy-buddy, roadtrip. We’re forgetting all about golf vacations and stepping through the turnstiles of every major league ballpark. From now on, it’s the Gobbler Grand Slam for us!
