Airsoft is a team game that simulates an armed combat, with a high level of reality. Even though this type of game was at first practiced in Japan, it quickly spread all over the world and it soon became a popular activity. In Italy, for example, it is considered a sport and it is administrated as such (with referees, airsoft clubs and competitions).

I will get a bit “technical” and I will explain to you the rules of playing this game.

1. For someone to participate at this game there are a few requirements: the person has to be over 18 years old, psychicaly stable, to have his own equipment and to agree with and respect all the rules of the game.
2. In this game can participate two or more teams that are armed and equipped according to the airsoft regulations.
3. Usually the game takes place in an open space and it has a well-established scenario. The players decide on the duration of the game, its objectives and the borderlines from the beginning and these facts cannot be changed throughout the game playing.
4. The guns and equipments that are used in this game are especially designed for it. The ball that comes out of the guns barrel never exceeds the power of one Joule so that none of the players could be hurt during the game. The bullets are usually made of plastic, polistiren or other soft materials.
5. When a player is considered “dead” he must immediately wear a red cap or to fasten a red ribbon on his hand, arm or else can be obvious and to get out of the game scene as quickly as possible. The rules say that he cannot talk to anyone who is still active in the game and cannot share his guns.

There are a few restrictions the players should be aware of:

• One cannot play without protective goggles.
• One cannot shot at the one who wear the red ribbon or at the persons that are near the territory of the game (like local neighbors, curious people, friends that join etc).
• One cannot talk or establish any sort of relations while the game play.
• One cannot participate at this activity while being drunk or under the influence of drugs.
• Any breaking of the rules can get one expelled out the game.

Keep in mind that the role of this game is in the first place relaxation, a getaway in the middle of the nature in order to neutralize all the bad emotions and aggressive thoughts.

ESS Profile Turbofan Goggles: The preferred fan goggle of US Special Forces groups, the ESS Profile TurboFan goggle is now better and tougher than ever. Following a series of vast improvements, there is no question that the ESS Profile TurboFan goggles represents the most effective night-vision-compatible weapon against lens fogging.

Powered by a single AA battery, the patented TurboFan goggles system draws fresh airflow in through the lower edge of the goggle frame and forces humid air out the top at around 13,000 rpm. Even when perspiration or temperatures are extreme, this two-speed system will exhaust humidity and dramatically reduce lens fogging for over 150 hours of continuous operation (low speed).

This improved fog-elimination system features the robust PowerPod battery pack, now with a push-button switch and repositioned near the back of the head for snag-free operation. Patented new technology provides constant fan speeds as battery power diminishes, and an “Auto-off” timer shuts down the fan system to preserve battery life if accidentally left on. Water-resistant casing facilitates all-weather operation.

The Profile TurboFan goggle includes two 2.8mm polycarbonate high-impact lenses (Clear & Smoke Gray), an anti-reflective SpeedSleeve, and a protective soft case. P-2B Rx Insert available. All Profile lenses provide 100% UVA/UVB Protection.

When you try on the CrossbowTM, youll discover its unlike any other ballistic eyeshield. Experience the Tri-Tech FitTM frame that achieves an amazing universal fit with zero pressure points. Then notice the lenses. They wont fog. Thats thanks to groundbreaking ClearZoneTM FlowCoat technology, engineered to eliminate fog inside and prevent scratches outside. As you stare down your objective through distortion-free ESSOPTICSTM, youll see just how optically precise vision can be. When youre ready to switch tints, the innovative DedBoltTM Lens Lock pivots up for easy release, then clamps down for rock solid retention under impact.

To prevent such injuries, tough eye protection is necessary.  Ballistic eyewear will provide extra protection from shrapnel and flying debris that may cause damage to your eyes.

Ess Crossbow

The ESS Crossbow protection goggles are unlike any other ballistic eyewear.  It is currently used by the US Military, fire rescue and law enforcement personnel.  It currently has two configurations available in the market today – the ESS Crossbow 2X and the ESS Crossbow 3LS.

The Crossbow 2X features two complete eyeshields and is primarily marketed for US residents.  The ESS Crossbow 2x Dual-Eyeshield retail kit contains two black Crossbow frames with Clear and Smoke Gray eyeshields, a micro fiber pouch, a rugged zippered hard case, an elastic snap-on retention strap, a Crossbow instruction booklet, an ESS sticker and retail packaging.

The Crossbow 3LS, which is made primarily for the international market, features three lenses with the Crossbow frame: Hi-Def Yellow, Smoke Gray and Clear.

All ESS Crossbow protective goggles make use of advance technology to give its wearers maximum protection and comfort during tough operations.  It is made of 2.4mm ballistic high-impact polycarbonate lenses which are interchangeable, gives 100% UVA and UVB protection, with Rx inserts available when needed.

ESS Crossbow

Tri-Tech Fit technology has been incorporated in the goggles to help ESS Crossbow users achieve superior comfort, universal fit and zero pressure points.  As it also balances weight evenly throughout the frame, it provides optimum stability.

Different situations may require different lenses.  So the DedBolt Lens Lock feature is useful at times when switching lenses may be necessary.  This innovative feature will allow you to quickly release a lens by pivoting up, then will clamp down on the new lens for guaranteed retention under impact.

With the use of the ESSOPTICS feature, you will be able to zero-in on your objective without any distortions.  The ballistic polycarbonate lens will enable you to achieve ultimate optical precision throughout your field of vision, as well as providing 100% UV protection.

The fogging up of your eye protection will not only impair your vision, but it may also put your life at risk during actual combat.  However, as ESS Crossbow employs the ClearZone FlowCoat Technology into its protection goggles, you will never have to worry about fogging glasses ever again.  Thanks to this ground-breaking technology, your eye protection goggles are dual-coated to achieve fog resistance on the inside and maximum scratch resistance on the outside.

ESS Crossbow is widely trusted by law enforcers and military personnel because it is compliant with US Federal OSHA, CE EN 166, ANSI Z87.1+ and US MIL-PRF-31013.

Man is beginning to realize that the environment and its concerns affect every facet of life. The reason behind this is that everything in nature is interlinked and anything that upsets the balance in nature brings about a stilted approach which endangers species.

Our planet is being harmed in several ways and one of the ways is the deforestation. Trees are our main form of sustenance and cutting them down at such an alarming pace is going to have terrible repercussions for mankind in the future; that is if man does not wake up to the potential harm of deforestation and its horrible overall impact. Also, in the rural areas, trees are felled abundantly for fuel and clearing areas for further cultivation. This follows a pattern of more agricultural and living space required for mankind.

The forest is the home of numerous amounts of trees, foliage and animals. The moment these are cut down all the benefits that we receive from plants and animals vanish along with it. The benefits that we gain from plants such as food, medicines, products like fibers, resins and spices, all disappear. With no plants around, animals are left homeless and often stray into human habitats. Besides that the species dwindle and become extinct.

The foliage of trees around us is a great source of climate controllers. A single tree planted in your garden can reduce the temperature and work as efficiently as five air conditioners. Another important benefit of trees is that they also attract clouds that bring rain, avoid soil erosion, and are life gifting.

When man cuts down trees he not only cuts down the number of species but decreases his own lifespan and the quality of life. Trees are the only ones that can enhance the level of oxygen and take in carbon dioxide. They trap the pollutants and cleanse the air around them. This enables the sun’s rays to reach the earth in a defused manner and block the scorching heat. Trees do not allow the sun’s harmful UA rays to reach us directly and cool and warm the temperature around. Yes, you can wear eyeglasses and goggles, but this is not a permanent solution by any stretch of the imagination.

As the population all around the globe grows at an unprecedented way, human beings are cutting down trees without realizing the concerns that they are leaving behind. Almost every week several hectares of forests fall under the axe of deforestation.

Therefore, forests help mankind in several ways, and deforestation can have the most terrible of impacts for the Earth. If you don’t want your coming generations to scold you for your wrongdoings, you better get up and take some real initiatives to save forests.
