Ferdinand Porsche
Life
OBorn
in 3 September 1875 and died in 30 January 1951 in Maffersdorf
(Czech). Ferdinand was an automotive engineer and founder of the Porsche car
company.
OHe is
best known for creating the first electric vehicle (Lohner-Porsche),
the Volkswagen Beetle, the Mercedes-Benz SS/SSK, other important developments
and Porsche automobiles.
OPorsche
was an important contributor to the German war effort during World War II. He
was involved in the production of advanced tanks such as the Tiger I, Tiger II,
as well as other weapon systems, including flying bombs. Porsche was a member
of the German Nazi party and the SS.
In
1996 Porsche was inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame and
in 1999 he won the award of Car Engineer of the Century.
Career
OHis
life as an engineer started early, at the age of 22, when he designed an
electric engine. In 1900 he was hired by a carmaker of the time. He installed
one of his engines on a Lohner and
showed it in the Paris World Fair. The car was the show-stopper of the event,
and later obtained positive results in several races.
OPorsche
worked in the design of Mercedes-Benz cars until 1928, when he left because of
disagreements the other chief engineer of the factory. But his last development
in the factory was probably one of the most important: The curious, exotic and
fast SSKL.
OAfter
Porsche left Mercedes, he was soon hired to design the now extinct Austria
cars, and later joined another very important German auto maker, Auto Union. In
this factory he designed the famous and complex 16-cylinder race cars. While
working in Auto Union, he formed with his son “Ferry” an independent factory
that had their last name, Porsche, as name. Ferry worked as design head.
OIn
another example of versatility and excellence, he won the contract for building
the Volkswagen, a car that, according to the beliefs of Adolf Hitler, was going
to put every German citizen on wheels. And it did. With help from the Nazi
government, he started building the Volkswagen plant. Finally, the car hit
showrooms on 1939, but the war postponed its full production until 1945.
What if we had super powers !
That would be an amazing thing , because if we have them we can do everything we want like : Fly ,
Froze someone by blewing on him or even burn things by using our eyes
It would be amazing but also dangerous if we dont know how to use them or if we use them for bad things i think it would be fabulous to have them but we would also loose our humanity.
A Disturbing Episode
Nowadays, almost every school in Lebanon celebrates the Lebanese Independence Day, which occurs at the 22nd of November, for now 73 years. But at our school, something disturbing happened.
As the celebration started, almost every student was talking and shouting and screaming, whilst the new headmaster was making a speech about the Lebanese Independence. Some of them calmed down a bit when the Lebanese Hymn was played, but they just restarted everything afterwards, considering this ceremony a waste of time. Some of them even started hitting and pushing each others all around the recess yard.
This episode was a very disturbing one, because of all the disrespect the students showed to their great country and their new headmaster. Why all this disrespect? Why all this rudeness? Do we really lack the necessary politeness to stand still for at least half an hour, in order to show our respect?
