Wendy Venturini

Wendy has been happily married to Jarrad Egert. Her husband is an engine tuner for Tony Stewart.

Some views I have been able to gather off the net.

I’ve always liked Wendy as a NASCAR reporter. But since her recent marriage to a JGR employee, she seems to be showing a little bit of bias. What say you, NASCAR Nation?

I should have mentioned that I thought that she “soft-pedaled” her reporting on the JGR Nationwide penalties. She defended their actions, as a good wife should. But maybe a good wife shouldn’t be reporting about her hubby’s team? I still like her, I’m just a little disappointed.

I dont think so. If I had a relative in Nascar I would probably show bias too.(Guilty as charged) Ive watched her before in those school bus races up there in NC and she tenacious plus she has racing in her blood with I believe her dad or brother. I would rather watch her than Jimmy Spencer any day.

Check out Wendy Venturini interview videos below from Youtube that I have been able to gather. Don’t forget to leave a shout out to Wendy Venturini below if you like her.

Is Ratan Tata Pulling Out

With the Singur blockade going into its 6th day, it is only seemed a matter of time before Ratan Tata pulled out of West Bengal. We cannot blame him for it actually. The TMC workers have constantly threatened and physicaly abused the workers who had shown up at the factory and forced them to stay indoors. The entire Durgapur highway was blockaded and temporary structures erected along the road which created more congestion.

Apart from this an entire convoy of in excess of 50 vehicles, carrying employees of the Nano factory were not allowed to leave the workshop premises for over an hour. Among those present in the convoy were engineers from Japan providing technical support to the project.

Uneasy peace in Kashmir

Finally the Government of India has been able to resolve the Amarnath land issue with the Amarnath Yatra Sangharsh Samiti. It has been agreed that the Shrine Board will have complete authority over the much disputed land for the period of the yatra only.

With this solution the Sangharsh Samiti has suspended its agitation in the Valley much to the relief of everone. There was jubilation in Jammu as people defied curfew and took to the streets to express their acceptance of the decision. But there was some violence in parts of Srinagar where curfew had to be reimposed.

Robofly Fly O Vision

To study the aerodynamics of flapping flight, Dickinson’s Lab has developed a series of large robots, permitting them to quantify the forces and flows generated by flapping wings.

In designing these robots they make use of the principles of dynamic scaling, in which size, flapping frequency, and velocity of the robots, as well as the viscosity and density of the surrounding fluid, are chosen so that two dimensionless parameters (Reynolds number and reduced frequency) of the devices match those of the animals of interest.
