Some people don’t know how to act on a plane. 

From Alex Baldwin to Naomi Campbell to Ivana Trump, there’s been a long history of celebrities misbehaving on airplanes. The latest is Blac Chyna, the model and girlfriend of Rob Kardashian. On Friday, Jan. 29, Chyna — whose real name is Angela Renee White — was arrested after being kicked off a flight at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Austin, Texas. 

According to Texas authorities, Chyna was charged with public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance. She was allegedly drunk and causing a disturbance on a commercial flight that was about to take off. 

An official told People Magazine: “At 6:22pm Airport Officers were informed that there was an intoxicated female on a flight that was about to depart ABIA and she was causing a disturbance and would not be allowed to remain on the plane.”

Pentagon risks building 500 F-35s before completing combat tests

Posted on January 31, 2016 by Writer

Tests of how Lockheed Martin Corp.’s F-35 will perform in combat won’t begin until at least August 2018, a year later than planned, and more than 500 of the fighter jets may be built before the assessment is complete, according to the Pentagon’s test office.

“These aircraft will require a still-to-be-determined list of modifications” to be fully capable, Michael Gilmore, the Defense Department’s top weapons tester, said in his annual report on major programs. “However, these modifications may be unaffordable for the services as they consider the cost of upgrading these early lots of aircraft while the program continues to increase production rates in a fiscally constrained environment.”

The Defense Department plans a fleet of 2,443 F-35s for the United States, plus hundreds more to be purchased by allies, including the United Kingdom, Italy, Australia and Japan. The costliest U.S. weapons program, at a projected

Ted Cruz Iowa events shadowed by pro-ethanol Winnebago

Posted on January 30, 2016 by Writer

ALBIA, Iowa— Wherever Ted Cruz appears on the campaign trail in the last frantic days before the Iowa caucuses, chances are a colorful Winnebago is in hot pursuit.

As the Texas senator spoke to several hundred voters here Tuesday at Bogie’s Steakhouse, the RV festooned with a green cornfield and a “Ted Cruz can’t be trusted” sign stood vigil, a reminder of the corn-based fuel additive’s political clout as well as the unique character of Iowa politics.

“Caucusing for Cruz is caucusing against Iowa farmers,” declares a message on the RV painted in capital letters.

The federal ethanol mandate, which requires blending increasing amounts of ethanol into the nation’s gas supply, is of little interest to most voters outside the Hawkeye State, but it looms once again as a difference-maker in the pivotal first-in-the-nation caucuses.

The question of whether the $5 billion issue resonates with Iowans the way it once did comes with Mr. Cruz and billionaire businessman Donald Trump entering the final stretch locked in a virtual tie. A Quinnipiac University Poll released Tuesday found Mr. Trump leading Mr. Cruz by 31 to 29 percentage points among likely Republican caucusgoers.

“You play with ethanol in Iowa, you get burned,” said FiveThirtyEight political statistician Nate Silver on Twitter after Iowa Republican Party Chair Jeff Kaufmann introduced Mr. Trump at a Sunday rally.

For his part, Mr. Cruz has refused to back down from his opposition to ethanol subsidies, saying he wants a “fair and level playing field,” even as the issue embroils him in a

Gerald Bernheisel

Posted on January 30, 2016 by Writer

1939 – 2016

Gerald “Gerry” Wayne Bernheisel, 80, of Dallas, Ore., died Jan. 3, 2016, in Dallas as a result of pancreatic cancer.

He was born in Medford to Elizabeth and Nye Bernheisel. Gerald graduated from Coquille High School in 1954. He married the love of his life, Charlene Vee Fellows in 1957 and they had three children. Gerald worked in the produce department for Safeway at the age of 16 in Coquille and then in Coos Bay and then worked for United Grocers/Cash Carry, working up to manager of the store in Coos Bay. He retired from there after 30 years.

Gerald served in the U.S. Navy Reserve for several years and enjoyed this very much. He also was a longtime member of the Elks and was an avid NRA member.

Gerald loved his family very much and was a great role model. He was a very special man to his family and friends and will be missed very much. He loved going to second-hand stores looking for treasures, fishing, hunting and to the beach, looking at the stars and taking pictures of the clouds and all types of airplanes.

Gerry is survived by his sister, Janet Cagley; half-brother, Milton Bernheisel; his children, Bruce Bernheisel, Kimberly O’Harrow and Lisa Weidman; seven grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be held in early summer.

Morgan Joslin shares rocketry passion with CAP cadets

Posted on January 30, 2016 by Writer

For Morgan Joslin, Civil Air Patrol cadet lieutenant colonel and squadron commander, building model rockets has been a life-long passion. This weekend, he will be teaching CAP cadets to launch 20 rockets more than 1,000 feet into the sky above Sulphur Springs Municipal Airport. 

 

Joslin has been interested in all aspects of aviation since his grandfather took him flying when he was three years old. At seven, he was introduced by his family to building model rockets and airplanes, which quickly became a full-time hobby. Now in high school, he has built more than 500 model aircraft and rockets.

Joslin’s dream is to become a pilot and he will stop at nothing to get in as much flying time as possible. After school, he spends every free moment at the airport. From taking airplane rides with local pilots to helping out around the airport, he is determined to learn every aspect of aviation. 

Rising through the ranks of the Civic Air Patrol to commander, Joslin began to share his passion for rockets with his fellow cadets. This weekend, he will be training cadets to pass several Aerospace Education Model Rocketry exams and explaining the fundamentals and science behind the technology. This is the third time in six years he has taught the badge certification. 

“We are having a rocketry day with our squadron. Our younger cadets will learn how to build and launch rockets,” said Joslin.

To fund the initiative, the Civic Air Patrol contacted the Air Force
