		<description><![CDATA[The Navy had been working on the idea of satellite navigating since 1960, advancing a tool developed during World War II. Long-range radio aids were used then to determine a ship&#8217;s or airplane&#8217;s position quickly and accurately. When the U.S. started exploring space, scientists placed new navigation satellites in orbit, thousands of miles above earth&#8217;s surface. Although early systems could determine an object&#8217;s location only about once an hour, the concept was proven and&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Harold Smith may not be a household name, but he made a huge contribution toward making American roadways safer. He ran a driver training school following his service in World War II, basing his behind-the-wheel tactics on collision avoidance. When students didn&#8217;t get his approach to safety, he set out to clarify his ideas on paper. Smith believed safe driving had more to do with seeing than reacting. Working with an ophthalmologist, he developed a theory that human beings were designed &#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A dozen or so years ago, at a meeting of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), I helped organize a panel discussion about sleeper cabs. I brought three owner-operators for a dialogue with truck builders&#8217; cab engineers. After hearing how sleepers had been made larger and more comfortable, Dennis Mitchell of Blissfield, Mich., stopped the engineers in their tracks. He asked if any of them knew how long it took for a sleeper cab to burn down to the frame rails. Dennis reported seeing i&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mickey Gwillim is a show trucker. He and his brother Scott operate Gwillim Trucking, Inc., a third generation family operation founded in 1936 and based in Carlinville, Ill. They have a championship show truck: a lime green customized Peterbilt 359 with a Great Dane spread axle trailer. Last year, the brothers hosted the first-ever World of Large Cars show truck meeting. It wasn&#8217;t a show in the traditional sense. There were no judges, no trophies and no call for&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whoever started the saying &#8220;time is money&#8221; could have been thinking of truck drivers. Every minute counts and is accounted for on the road, and wasting precious minutes off-road hurts. So why go one place to fuel, another to eat and another to stock up on supplies? When you stop to really think about how you manage your time, that makes no sense.At TA, a driver can make one stop and take care of everything.Fuel? Check. Plus, become a member of the Road King Club, and every time you&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When a four-wheeler slows down, speeds up and drifts in and out of their lane, you are almost guaranteed to find the driver yakking on a cellphone or vigorously tapping out a text message. Technology has made distracted driving an epidemic on our roads. Could more technology be a cure?That&#8217;s the thought behind Zoomsafer, a developing software for mobile phones that goes into action when a vehicle starts moving. The driver hears a gentle reminder to drive safely, while the software shuts d&#8230;]]></description>

A concert by Aaron Tippin, fireworks, a truck beauty contest with more than 80 vehicles, more than 200 antique trucks, games, pork chops and lots of exhibits were all part of the fun. But one particular moment took the cake. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Jamboree, and the 45th anniversary of the location itself, an incredible truck-shaped desse&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The highways could certainly use less road rage, drowsy driving and distracted driving. Throw into the mix a way to relieve tight shoulder and neck muscles and generally diminish the stress of being behind the wheel and hours of travel sounds downright heavenly. Steve Halpern says these are just some of the things drivers will experience by listening to his CD, Drive Time Rx. The keyboard player, who has released 70 mind-soothing recordings in the last 35 years, says his concept is simple. Buri&#8230;]]></description>

This is the second year for the event, which raised $1,718. TA provided a breakfast buffet at the start of the run, and served meatball hoagies at the finish line. ]]></description>
