I have worked in a BBQ restaurant for 2.5 years, and always had good comments on the food that I made there (people could tell if someone else had made it). This would be an excellent opportunity for me to thrill my friends taste buds on a personal level, using these products as a way to accomplish that. Many a backyard BBQ has created world class champions in the business. I will put my knowledge and expertise to good use when I win one of the products you are offering!
Good luck y'all.
omg your shirts are too freakin awsome they have megan written all over it lol… hope i get it
Don't know that the zebra will fit in the smoker Harry. But I'll do my best to do you proud LOL
I would love to own one of these. My neighbor cooks with one and what a difference in the meats. So good
BBQ is considered to be the way to go especially when we go out camping and each of those that are intending to use it will be remembering that we were very lucky! As a result, the winning of this prize will be used in all so many ways from Boy / Girl Scout camp to Fundraisers! This would in doubt be an awesome prize that will be remembered in all the years following!
This would be so awesome to win!
This is a fantastic site
We live BBQ summer spring fall winter
I hope I win the Smoker! My son will be soooooo Happy!
my caregiver, son, Jerry would look good in this shirt while cooking outside food.
can't wait to win a BBQ system!
I really need this to go with the amazing BBQ-Tool kit, I won.
I am going to smoke a 5# corned beef round I got last weekend on my reverse flow smoker I built last winter.
First time attempt at corned beef on smoker. Any good advice out there?
Roger, I have done corned beef on the smoker. It is my favorite way to make it now. Treat it like a brisket, that's what it is. You will have to experiment with technique, smoke,foil,etc. to make it the way you like. Also a very good method to make faux pastrami. Let me know what you do and how it turns out.
Excited for the opportunity. Thank you Harry👀
I would LOVE to win!
Can't wait to put that brisket, and thermapen to good use. (what, gotta have some faith in winning.)

Hello Harry
Went to Sloe's barbecue restaurant in downtown Detroit and fell in love with smoked barbecue. Bought a pit barrel smoker to get my feet wet smoking meats. Fell in love with smoking meat. Searching the web looking for great barbecue recipes and came upon slap your daddy barbecue, found them!!! There is a natural progression going on here Harry, moving up to the Weber smoker is the next step. Don't mess with nature, award me the Weber smoker. Thank you very much for your consideration, possibly your next best competitor, Mike!
I love this!!! I can bbq like a professional!!! So cool!!! Pull apart pork, seasoned roast, bbq chicken and more!!!! YUM!!! I cant wait to win one of these!!! Its time to get rid of the grill!!!!
This is awesome. Kudos.
Looks like an awesome smoker, never had one, so this would be an experiment… but something I've been dying to get into. I grill year-round & love it. This would be great to try something new. I've had smoked BBQ & love it, and hope some day I can make my own! Would actually like to take one of your classes, but looks like they're all pretty booked/ not in my area… SOMEDAY!!!
Man, I really need to try this Snake River Farms product!!!

Thanks for the chance to win this. Love your website. You're recipes are awesome!!!
Nice thermometer! This is very important!
I first meet Harry at the Woodshed for a BBQ/Smoking 101 class, I was so impressed with his techniques and style of teaching & cooking, I wanted to learn more & found out Harry did a more in depth class in Diamond Bar, This class was just fabulous and had answers for all my BBQ/Smoking questions & issues, at the end of our class Harry gave us an assignment to BBQ/Smoke meats and send him pictures of our progress, My first attempt was a big fail, but when I started paying attention to detail that I learned from Harry, I had total success. I must say that what I have cooked since then might even give harry a run for his money. I have several big cooks coming up, one is a very large birthday party and the other is a block party, this will be my real test of the skills in which I have learn, my confidence in being able to provide is high and as Harry would say, I will pass along the love of BBQ/Smoking. This class is well worth the price, happy smoking…………..
Thanks Harry for the awesome giveaways….
good luck everybody! If I win, I'm gonna give it to my buddy, he needs this in his life!
harry that nice grill and 10pounds of your jailbird rub yum yum

We now know why top Democrats are protecting Bush administration officials from facing an inquiry into the illegal torture program – because several of them were actually complicit in giving their approval for such methods to be used.
The White House stressed again yesterday that it would not be pursuing an investigation of key Bush administration officials, despite the manifestly provable fact that the order to torture came from the very top, which was re-affirmed with the recent release of the Senate Armed Services Committee report.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs stated yesterday, "I think the last few days might well be evidence of why something like this would likely just become a political back and forth."
"By (definition), an independent commission would probably not be something that I would weigh in on if Congress were to create one of those," he told reporters, according to AFP.
Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid also said he opposed an independent torture probe, stating, "I think it would be very unwise, from my perspective, to start having commissions, boards, tribunals, until we find out what the facts are."
In addition, upon the recent release of the torture memos, Obama's right-hand man, chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, told ABC News that top Bush administration officials "should not be prosecuted either and that's not the place that we go." Obama's statement that accompanied the release of the torture memos stated, "In releasing these memos, it is our intention to assure those who carried out their duties relying in good faith upon legal advice from the Department of Justice that they will not be subject to prosecution."
Why are top Democrats so vehemently opposed to an independent inquiry into the blatantly illegal Bush torture program? This goes further than the crony self-interests of the two party monopoly – it turns out that top Democrats had foreknowledge of the torture and actually provided their unmitigated approval for the methods when presented with them by the CIA.
Despite Nancy Pelosi's denial that Congress was informed that the CIA was illegally waterboarding detainees, the Senate committee report discovered that in 2002 Pelosi and three other members of Congress (one other Democrat and two Republicans) were given a virtual tour by the CIA of overseas detention sites and the torture tactics employed to try and make detainees talk. This was reported by the Washington Post in December 2007.
Democrats Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) and Sens. Bob Graham (D-Fla.) and John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), all held oversight roles during this period. The Post reports that the lawmakers raised "no objections" to the interrogation methods demonstrated by the CIA and that in fact, "at least two lawmakers in the room asked the CIA to push harder."
So in summary, at least four top Democrats were aware as far back as 2002 that the CIA was using torture tactics which were illegal under the Geneva Conventions on detainees. They gave their approval for such measures and, along with Republicans, advised that even harsher torture methods be employed.
Any independent investigation into the torture scandal will most probably uncover the fact that top Democrats like Pelosi, Harman, Graham and Rockefeller were complicit in approving the torture methods used by the CIA, which would also likely make them culpable to charges on the basis of knowingly covering up the fact that illegal actions which violate both the Geneva Conventions and the U.S. Constitution were taking place.
This is why Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the Democratic elite are so resistant to prosecuting Bush officials for devising the torture program – and have made every effort to protect them – because they were in on the fun and any truly independent inquiry would expose the fact that this whole debacle was a bipartisan cover-up from the very beginning.

SAN RAMON — The universal messages of love, good and evil, and devotion steeped in the centuries-old traditions and beliefs of the Indian culture and Hindu beliefs came alive in a recent performance by local graduates of the Vrindavan Dance Academy in San Ramon.
Amid the elaborate custom-designed costumes, sparkling jewels, and live vocal and orchestra accompaniment and after more than five years of intense training and rehearsals, Madhu Katragadda, of San Ramon, and Vidya Subramanian, of Dublin, performed an arangetram, a two-hour graduation performance at the Dougherty Valley Performing Arts Center.
An arangetram is literally "aranga," which means raised stage, and "etram," which means climbing and represents the years of training and immense stamina required to achieve this level.
Wives, mothers and professionals in software engineering and finance respectively, Katragadda and Subramanian performed a Bharat Natyam dance called "Seetha's Abduction" to an audience of more than 300.
Katragadda and Subramanian have studied this dance art form for more than five years and rehearsed several times a week to perfect their technique and level of ability to dance Bharat Natyam, a classical Indian dance known for it grace, purity, tenderness and sculpturesque poses.
"The dance tradition was developed to articulate the stories and ideas from Indian philosophy," said guru Dr. Bindu S. Shankar. The philosophy and teachings are "abstract and difficult to understand," she adds. Bharat Natyam "brings to life and tells the stories from Indian mythology about good and evil by bringing gods and goddesses to the stage to teach these ancient traditions. The cultural art forms of dance as well as paintings and sculpture are used to teach.
Shankar founded Vrindavan Dance Academy in San Ramon in 2005 and trains students of all ages, Indian and non-Indian, in the technique, theory and performance of Bharat Natyam. Shankar was trained at the Kalakshetra Foundation in Chennai, where she performed her arangetram. She holds a doctorate in Indian Art History from Ohio State University and for the past 20 years has given recitals, lecture demonstrations and received numerous awards in addition to sponsoring artists, organizing community events and supporting upcoming dancers.
In addition to the storytelling and graceful dance movements in Bharat Natyam are the traditional costumes and jewelry. The handmade Indian silk costume designs are deeply symbolic and are grand and elaborate with brilliant colors and traditional patterns. Bought in India and hand-tailored for the dancers, the costume designs are inspired by mythological sculptures from Indian temples, says Bindu. The ornate jewelry worn for the dance is called "temple jewelry" and, again, is inspired by sculptures in the temples and used only for dance performances. Also, the music accompaniment comes from the Carnatic style of South India with instruments including the drum, long pipe horn, flute, violin and veena, a stringed instrument associated with the Hindu goddess of the arts.
Katragadda and Subramanian began dancing when they were children and returned to dance as adults. They met at the dance school, and their friendship has blossomed over the years as their entire families have become friends.
"I like the whole experience of dance and have always been interested in it," says Subramanian. "It (Bharat Natyam) is my passion of choice" and a good avenue of expression, she adds. "I lose all my inhibitions through dance and a different person takes over. That's the fulfilling part."
Bharat Natyam is a "stress reliever" and good physical exercise says Katragadda and requires endurance and stamina. "We try to become someone else and try to tell a story through movement and expression," says Katragadda. "There is a satisfaction about doing that."
Learning this particularly challenging art form "is one way in which we connect to our roots," explains Subramanian, who says she hopes her 11-year-old daughter is "influenced by the passion she sees. She has an 8-year-old son, also.
Katragadda, a mother of 6 and 9-year-old sons, says dancing Bharat Natyam is a way "to teach them about the culture through this art form." With more than 90 students at her San Ramon dance school on Ryan Industrial Court, Bindu says that connecting to the culture offers a sense of pride.
"This is a 2,000-year-old refined and sophisticated art form that is immensely popular in the U.S.," she says and is a way to connect the younger generation with their culture when sometimes the only connection to India that the younger generation has is "nebulous and only through family." Bindu says she hopes audiences "feel they have participated with the dance," and feel the passion, love and devotion expressed" in addition to admiring the physical form of the dance.
"There is a magnetic quality to the dance," she adds. She hopes the audience feels a spiritual awakening as well.
The arangetram, says Shankar, means the dancers "have reached a certain level of competence. It is not the end of the journey." Both dancers say they will continue with advanced classes and perhaps even assist with teaching as well as stay connected.
"My hope is to build a bridge between the east and west (through dance)," says Bindu and she says she hopes "non-Indians come and check it out." "If yoga is so easily embraced by the Western culture, then so can this dance form," she adds. "Come with an open mind, and come and explore it," she says.
Free arangetram performances will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday, featuring Karbi Choudhury, and at 4 p.m. Nov. 23, featuring Minu Rao and Swarna Rao at the Dougherty Valley Performing Arts Center, 10550 Albion Road in San Ramon. Visit www.vrindavanacademy.com or call 925-858-6551 for details on dance classes and performances.

The advice of these books is boiled down the the following "key tips:
- Walk further and with no fixed route
- Stop texting and mapping
- Don't soundtrack your walks
- Go alone
- Find walkable places
- Walk mindfully
- Carry paper and pencil (or some electronic device) to take notes
Unexpectedly, the essay suddenly took shape in my mind. I pulled out my notebook and began to write while I sauntered along. When I arrived at Eutin, the sketch was finished, and I had a clear idea of the whole. All that was left for me to do was to rewrite it and fill in the details—an enjoyable task, which occupied me during the following weeks at home.There is even recent study that supports the connection between walking and thinking (mentioned in the article).
Many of my articles have come into being in a similar way, as, for example, "Instruction in Philosophy, Its Past and Its Future." I was taking an evening stroll along my father's fields at Langenhorn, when the whole article suddenly stood before my mind, so that I felt induced to pencil down a rapid outline on the spot. Many a chapter in my Ethics has had a similar origin.
Strange as it may seem, a creative mood also came over me not infrequently when I was traveling in a train or a street car or when I was walking in the streets of Berlin. In every possible and impossible situation I wrote such outlines down, elaborating them afterward at home into an article or a chapter in a book. On the other hand, when I sit at my desk in the morning, the productive mood often so persistently refuses to appear that, after all sorts of futile attempts my pen down at last and take up a book or go out for a walk. And then it happens not so rarely that what I had been vainly to think out or put into shape comes to me quite by itself.
The eighteenth and nineteenth century had not yet forgotten the connection between walking and thinking. Nor is it perhaps an accident that the Aristotelians are also known as the "peripatetics" or walkers (in the "collonnades)."
1. I searched Amazon for "walking" and found these titles as well (as well as some e-books and Thoreau's essay on walking).

Microsoft have probably just saved Silverlight. Their recent announcement of the Windows Phone 7 Series, and more importantly the development platform for that phone (Silverlight of course) means Silverlight is important now. I was always pretty sure WPF would become the defacto standard for desktop applications (and what with Visual Studio now being written in WPF, perhaps it will), but I couldn't quite see a compelling reason behind Silverlight. Now there is one!
Have Embarcadero backed the wrong horse (again…)? They're targeting the MAC with their next compiler. Probably because they think that is where the future is. Perhaps the future is with Seattle and not Cupertino!
They have Delphi Prism of course, and you can develop for Windows Phone using that. Having said that, no one has ever answered my question? Why should I use Delphi Prism and not C#? Now before I get a 1000 comments telling me that Pascal is easier to read than C#, I just want to say I agree. I love Prism! I wish I could use it every day. It's awesome. Can I praise it anymore? I need a reason to use it though. One I can go to my boss with. I'd like to be able to go to him and say, "you know that project we were about to develop in C# (the one we decided to NOT use Delphi native Win32 for!), well I think we should use Delphi Prism because…."
If anyone can complete that sentence for me, I'd love to be able to use it. I wish Microsoft had approached Remobjects and partnered with them rather than Embarcadero. The only way my boss would agree to Delphi Prism would be if it sat along side C# and VB.NET in the default install of Visual Studio. That wouldn't guarantee anything, but I'm sure the added exposure would garner quite a few new followers.

|Nom du fichier : Madden NFL 08 [PS3] - Auteur : ANO
|Easy touchdowns
Off the line, without speed burst, instantly juke right then left. The CB will be fooled. Speed burst, run a 45 degree angle to the center of the field, and call for the ball. Either the CB will be far away or he will be behind you, and you will catch it almost every time usually for an easy touchdown. This also works during games but it takes some of the fun out of running routes. Instead of right then left, do left then right and catch the ball running up the line for a big gain.
Kyle Labelle
Use the following trick for an easy touchdown or first down. Make sure that you have a fast QB or this might not work. When it is third down and you need a first down, call a pass play. By doing this, the defenders will lay off you slightly. When you see an open gap, run in that direction. Run in a 45 degree angle when defenders start to get close. When a group of defenders start to approach you, make a QB dive so that you cross the line to get a first down or touchdown. This also works well in Superstar mode. Do not wait too long or you may get sacked.
Always have first pick in draft
Start a franchise with the trade deadline off. Sim or play the season to Week 17. Find out which team has the worst record. Trade your first draft pick for their first pick and they will always accept. Note: You can also do this with second through seventh draft picks as well.
Fantasy Challenge mode: Getting players
Make sure you have all the desired players from that league on your team before the last game (championship). You will not be able to get the players if you win the championship because you will move on to the next league.
Fantasy Challenge: Recommended players
In Fantasy Challenge mode, two very good and cheap players are Mike Alstott (FB) and Antrell Rolle (CB). Rolle has great catching. It is almost a guaranteed interception in every game that he plays. You should get the cheapest players at every position then save it. Go to "Rosters" under "Features" at the main menu and increase your players to a 99 overall. Doing this will make your team cheap and outstanding. Also, no one will be able to negotiate your players away.
Franchise mode: Recommended players
When playing in Franchise mode, visit the Free Agent screen. Sign a free agent names Jordan Beck. He is a middle linebacker 71 overall. Change his position to defensive end and he will be 90 overall. The same thing works for a lot of the other linebackers when changed to defensive end. Also, you can change Ladainian Tomlinson's position to linebacker. Do this, then trade for him. He will have an F trade rating and his team will accept almost any player in a trade. When signed release him then resign him to save cap room. Then, change his position back to running back. He will be 99 again. This can be done for lots of other players.
In Franchise mode, take any quarterback in the league (Peyton Manning is the highest overall). When you go to the roster and select them, and go to edit the player. Change his position to a WR. He will have a 30 overall (if you selected Manning), and you can trade any pick or player for him.
Go to the "Trade" screen in "Roster Management". Go to your favorite team then trade for very young players in every position. Edit them to the best stats and go to Franchise for a very good team.
Superstar mode: Set team and player rating
At the main menu, go to "My Madden" then to "Create-A-Player". Create them however desired, but set what team you want to be on in Superstar mode and make them a rookie. When you go to "Player Rating" select "Create Custom". You can now make your player as good or bad as desired. Exit the Create-A-Player mode. If you do not want to change your default rosters, select the "Keep player without saving" option. Then, go to "Game Modes" and choose "Superstar". Then, choose "New Superstar" and select the "Play as Rookie" option. Find your created person under the list of players. This will give you control of the Superstar at the start of preseason, and he will be exactly the same that as he was when you created him. This works well if you are bad at the mini-games and cannot get a good player normally.
Superstar mode: Get drafted by any team on Superstar hall of fame
When you make your profile at the main menu, select the team that you want to be drafted by as your favorite team. When you start your superstar and get to the draft, a message will appear stating "Would you be interested in being drafted by your favorite team?". Select "Yes" and you will be on that team.
Superstar mode: Start your Superstar with 99 in ratings
Go into the Superstar Hall Of Fame and select a player based on which position you would like to play through, appearance, etc. At this point you are not selecting them, but you know which player to alter. Go into Roster mode, then to the players' team and begin alteration. You can change all the characteristics that let you highlight them as usual. Once you have changed the appearance, etc. go to ratings and adjust them as desired. Go back into Superstar mode and the player you modified will be at the top (if you made them with perfect ratings).
Go to the rosters. Look for a player that is a rookie at your position. Alter that player as desired (appearance, build, etc.), then change the ratings to suit your taste. If needed, trade that player to your favorite team. When leaving rosters the game will save. Then, start Superstar mode and choose "Rookie from 07 class". Be aware that this player's ratings will apply to other game modes. Select your player and continue.
Superstar mode: Get drafted by any team on Superstar hall of fame
When you make your profile at the main menu, select the team that you want to be drafted by as your favorite team. When you start your superstar and get to the draft, a message will appear stating "Would you be interested in being drafted by your favorite team?". Select "Yes" and you will be on that team.
Fantasy Challenge mode
Make sure you have all the desired players from that league on your team before the last game (championship). You will not be able to get the players if you win the championship because you will move on to the next league.
Fantasy Challenge mode: Unlocking bonus teams
To unlock NFC Hall of Fame, AFC Hall of Fame, Dummies, Glaciers, Deceivers, and Tridents, you must defeat them in Fantasy Challenge mode. They will be under the last league, called the Supreme League. Once they are beaten you will be able to play with them in Play Now mode. The easiest way to beat the Supreme teams is to change the difficulty to Rookie or Pro. Another way to unlock the Hall Of Fame teams is to buy their Madden cards, which appear randomly when you buy cards for 100 tokens.

Future of Canadian Cycling On Display in Ancaster at 2013 Ontario Youth Cup Series Final
The CHCH National Cycling Centre Hamilton (NCCH) in association with the City of Hamilton and the Ontario Cycling Association (OCA) are once again bringing Ontario Youth Cup racing back to the community. The eighth and final event on the 2013 racing calendar takes place on September 7th over the rolling hills of Ancaster.
"I would like to invite everyone to celebrate the future of Canadian Cycling at the 2013 Ontario Youth Cup Championships" says Lloyd Fairbairn, President and Coaching Director at the NCCH".
This is the second year that this event has been hosted by the NCCH in Ancaster. It promises to be an exciting day of racing, and an opportunity to watch Ontario's future champions in action.
"With the weeks ticking down, all of us here at the OCA are extremely excited to see the Youth Road Cup Series Championship back in Hamilton" says Greg Rawson, Sport Coordinator for the OCA.
The event will attract between 100 to 200 youth racers enjoying the thrill of road racing. The 16 race card will be split into 8 time trial races and 8 road races in 4 categories. Racing starts at 9:30am to 2:25pm with the podium presentations taking place at 3:45pm at Morgan Firestone Arena. The winners will receive custom Youth Cup Champion jerseys from the OCA. The Youth Cup series was created by the OCA to address a gap in youth cycling for riders between the ages of 9 and 16.

Fee compression, regulation, succession planning, technology—the more things change, the more they stay the same for the 58 leaders of independent broker-dealers we questioned exclusively for our annual survey.
Click here for a by-the-numbers comparison of the respondents over the past three years.
1. What issue do you feel is the most challenging to your firm business-wise in the short term (next 18 months)?
We should have asked they be more specific with "other," although it's nice that the size of the debt is such a small percentage of broker-dealer concerns. Color us unsurprised that the top concern is "regulatory uncertainty/increased compliance costs." A new SEC chief, the reintroduction of the DOL's fiduciary proposal (see Phyllis Borzi's extended profile from the 2013 IA 25 on AdvisorOne.com), Dodd-Frank's ongoing implementation, the health care law—it could easily be "death by a thousand cuts."
2. What issues do you feel are the most challenging to your firm business-wise in the long term (next three to five years and beyond)?
"Dealing with margin squeeze" overwhelmingly took the top spot, but might there be a connection between that and the second biggest challenge, "keeping technology up to date"? Combine the two and you have something. "One of the biggest trends I see in the next 10 years is the interconnectivity of advice and information overall," Michael Kitces, director of research for Pinnacle Advisory Group and one of this year's IA 25 honorees, said. Key to that interconnectivity is technology.
3. What issues do you feel are the most challenging to individual reps in the short term (next 18 months)?
We're a bit confused by the results of this one. "Finding the best new clients" wouldn't be much of a concern, we surmised, with the stratospheric rise in the market. But further reflection had us take note of that key word—best—which we would agree, yes, is an ongoing challenge. What, you wouldn't want your reps to have lovely retired couples who call every day, ignore their advice and attempt to time the market?
4. What issues do you feel are the most challenging to individual reps over the long term (next three to five years and beyond)?
Building sustainable retirement plans for themselves and their clients certainly fits with all we hear at industry events. Succession planning is the topic everyone is talking about, but sadly, few are acting on it. Maybe it's simple procrastination or the more complicated emotions of letting go of a business they've spent a lifetime building. Whatever the case may be, reps aren't taking their own retirement into account, despite the active encouragement of almost every broker-dealer leader who answered our poll.
5. Which industry association/entity do you feel is most essential to advancing your point of view, especially in Washington, D.C.?
We realize we could be accused of "gilding the lily" on this one, but hear us out. The overwhelming response of the admittedly biased respondents still fits with the advocacy wins FSI has recently experienced (witness the defeat of Florida's notice-filing legislations and its implications for other states). Combined with its steadily increasing numbers and the excitement we witnessed firsthand at the annual OneVoice conference in January, and there is some "there" there.
6. Are you confident that the independent broker-dealer model will remain viable?
We'd really like to talk more with representatives of the naysayers. While the industry does face significant headwinds, each challenge would appear to offer a corresponding opportunity, which is how most executives who responded to the poll described it. Fully 76 million members of Gen Y will follow closely on the heels of 78 million baby boomers, and the former is far more independent-minded than the latter. Handled right, things can only get better.

Cash-strapped? Try the poor man's space travel with a parabolic flight
By • Updated 16th August 2013
Up next
Part of the imagined charms of space flight is not just the view from the window. It is also the thrill of breaking the shackles of gravity and free-floating. Now taking a break from Newton's laws is easier (and cheaper) than ever.
For years, the European Space Agency (ESA) has used a Novespace-owned Airbus to run parabolic, aka "zero-gravity" flights for scientists and astronauts-in-training. Last March,
started selling seats to the general public for a relatively reasonable $7,932.
"I've been doing this for 20 years, and every flight, there's always this 'wow' impression," says Vladimir Pletser, the parabolic flight manager at the ESA, and a Guinness record holder for most aircraft flown in parabola. "It's like you get born again in a new environment. Words are not enough to describe it. You have to live it."
"Zero-gravity" is a bit of a misnomer, as the Zero-G -- the Airbus A300 that performs the missions -- never leaves Earth's orbit.
Rather, the weightless feeling is a result of the plane's parabolic flight path. The aircraft shoots up at a 47-degree angle at full engine thrust -- at which point everything inside the plane experiences hypergravity, and is heavier. The thrust is then reduced, and the plane is allowed to experience free fall, allowing everything inside to become weightless.
"Gravity does not disappear, but we are in a state of freefall," explains Pletser. "With respect to the environment, which is the cabin, your weight will be zero. It's absolute magic."
Amazing feats of science: Trying to work On board the "vomit comet"
Magical though it may be, the experience lasts a mere 20 seconds. To draw out the experience, the Zero-G needs to thrust up and fall down in a series of 30 parabolas (it's no wonder it's nicknamed the "vomit comet.")
The Zero-G has not abandoned its main purpose, however, which is to provide a handy gravity-free environment for scientists to conduct experiments.
"It is a beautiful opportunity," notes Jean-Louis Thonnard, a professor at Belgium's Université Catholique de Louvain who is researching gravity's effect on upper-body movement.
"By studying the manipulation of objects in different gravity fields, we understand how important gravity is on Earth," he explains. "We are gravity dependent."
Sticking a scientist on a parabolic flight is considerably cheaper than sending them to the International Space Station, and many of the world's top space centers use Zero-G as a venue for the early stages of experimentation. It's no surprise that a lot of the research is space-themed.
The International Space University in Strasbourg, for instance, is researching how gravity affects our everyday perception of objects in terms of weight and density. According to Leonardo Surdo, a researcher at the university, studies show that on Earth, when people are presented with two balls of equal weight, they will mistakenly assume the smaller one is heavier. This is known as size-mass illusion.
The Zero-G shoots up at a 47-degree angle at full engine thrust.

"In microgravity, we don't have weight, just mass. It gives us the opportunity to see what the mechanism is underlying this illusion," says Surdo. In terms of real-world application, the experiment can help prevent accidents in space.
"We don't want astronauts to take different objects and smash them," he says.
According to Pletser, allowing the public to board the plane is partly an educational enterprise. By interacting with scientists, they're able to better grasp the affects of microgravity.
"It allows them to have an experience of zero gravity, and to see what it's good for," he says.
