                                          A Biographical Sketch       

Mr. Charles Littman began working in the field of photography in 1957, it
was then he won 1st place in the national ANSCO photography contest while
attending Chicopee High School, Massachusetts. His presenter in Boston was
Dr. Edwin Land, CEO and pioneer of instant photography of the Polaroid
Corporation. While on stage Mr. Land mentioned if there ever was money needed   
for education to contact him. Years later while attending University of Nebraska
there did come a time tuition costs exceeded income even when working at the
world's largest furniture store in Omaha Nebraska, the Nebraska Furniture  
Mart and so a request went out to Boston. But, the money situation some how
resolved itself, so when  an announcement by one of his class instructors to
immediately report to the Dean's Office, everyone thought he was in some kind
of trouble. The dean said to sit down, just watch and he proceeded to count out
all the money spent that semester's expenses & said as long as Chuck maintained
a 'C' average there would be no education money issues!  Now, skip forward a   
couple of years when the United States was attacked in the Gulf of Tonkin and 
president Johnson said our nation needed us. Chuck enlisted and within months
found himself in two combat tours to Vietnam, one tour to Thailand and one tour
to Republic of South Korea at the USAF military airfield of Suwon near Osan in       
response to the capture of the US Navy ship Pueblo by North Korea. Later  that       
year he got married and was posted to Hickam AFB,  Hawaii. There he wore
several different hats. Alert photographer, weekend wedding videographer & AF     
computer operator. Due to the breakouts of Americans high jacking airliners to
Cuba and having an expert marksmanship rating, went into the sky marshal and
airport security TDY assignments through out the Hawaiian Islands for 2 years.
Also his family expanded with the birth of two sons and all called Hawaii home.

He then got selected for a new generation of Air Force computer up grading that
took place worldwide. It was the IBM 360 series in the PACAF underground
command post. His selection for cutting edge computers was based in part on his
fathers service dating back to the world's 2nd computer: the 'RAMAC.' It was
derived from the world's 1st computer for the WWII US Army called ENIAC.
But MSGT Littman came to the attention of higher ranking military by being a
pilot, putting forward to the CAA and later the FAA an architectural concept in
airport design called 'The Race Track Runway Project' and finally his weekend
civilian off duty job as a videographer before video had come to America. Many
Japanese would opt for a Hawaiian Traditional wedding & started bringing a new
contraption from Sony called the Betamax and JVC called the camcorder to these
wedding services. All photo studios usually only had one photographer and many
assistants, especially those that were photographers in training. Volunteering to
hold, take care of and to actually shoot these video cameras gave Mr. Littman an
early jump on this relatively new technology. Then seeing a possible military
application and having access to fly to Japan to retrieve this new equipment he
quickly mastered their operation, studied them and even put them to novel uses 
not originally intended by the manufacturers. He soon became a Beta tester for
Sony, Nikon, Panasonic, Canon and JVC (Japan based, not USA branches).

It was at about this time, 1973 that war broke out in the Middle East where his
superior officers put him on a mission that utilized his combat skills in the
recently ended Vietnam conflict to be employed on the Golan Heights.

After the Yom Kippur War he met an IDF counterpart and visited him at his
home in the Jerusalem corridor called Sha'ar Hagai. There he met the founder
Myrna who introduced him to the ferral breed called the Canaan Biblical Dog.
It was arranged through Pan Am, a USA contact in Bethsalem Pennsylvania and
famous Hawaiian Vetenarian Dr. Roy Harada to import two females (Kaiulani
and Kapiolani) and one male puppy (Kamehameha). My boys called them Kai,
Kap and Kam. I made sure they would not get exploited and so gave all of the
first four litters away to various famous Hawaiian institutions on all the islands...
Chain of Craters National Volcanic Park, Arch dioceses, Sea Life Park, Paradise
Park, Barking Sands, Molokai Leper Colony, Maui Haleakala National Park,
Hawaii Humane Society, service dogs through Hawaii Canines for Independence
and Military SAR (search & rescue) through the Barbers Point Airstation Coast
Guard District 14 H-65 helicopters SAR. 

                           
He attended Roosevelt University of Chicago and got credits for Air Force Institute
of Technology (AFIT) and Air University & Command College. Later he would find
himself not only attending but teaching at Delaware State University and Delaware
Tech in the capital city of Dover Delaware in the 1970's.    

It was while Mr. Littman was at Dover AFB and teaching at DelTech that he was
temporary assigned to Pomona Naval Air Station Atlantic City New Jersey to the
NAFETC (National Aeronautical Flight Evaluation & Test Center) that he came
upon a 12 year old boy's suggestion from Westover AFB dated in the mid 1950's.
It was the one HE submitted, unfortunately at the exact time that of the change
over from the old WWII CAA (Civil Aeronautics Administration) to the current  
FAA (Federal Aviation Administration). But, somehow it was identified as being
from his father's rank (Major at the time) but his name 'Charles' was listed and with
a Brigadier General's endorsement (Nazarro, 8th AF chief). The submission was for
a 3rd (THIRD) approach to runway layout. For the first time since the age of the
Wright Brothers a new design was put forward besides the straight line runway and
the intersecting crossing runways. Called 'RaceTrack Concept™' approach which
basically was a very large banking elliptical shape with a central facility located in
the center, No car parking areas necessary, No taxiways as None would be, again,  
necessary and a single Never ending runway enclosed in a giant loop. Very safe, 
very practical, apparently very futuristic as most reviewers could not believe the
simplicity and the audaciousness of the concept. More of this subject, the cockpit
video system, the TV Studio in a SuitCase ideas and others can all be found in the
LINKS section provided in the middle @  http://www.supervideo.com

 
Lightning strikes twice when Mr Littman was interviewed and published on an idea
of a future business in Videography called the 'TV Studio In A SuitCase' whereby
everything found in a TV station; i.e. many cameras, many lights and audio pick  
up devices, a control room, prompters, new wireless technologies was incorporated.
Playback devices, various media sources and instant 'On The Fly' recording as well
as editing could all be accomplished all the while fitting inside a simple roll aboard
suitcase. At first it was several trunks, bags and cases where one being a steamer
size trunk on wheels. But, eventually with the advent of small LCD screens as
preview monitors and 8mm tiny camcorder videography allowed all to be reduced
to a single small light weight roll-aboard with a garment bag. The garment bag
would serve for personal over night items used on away trips. 

Today, Mr Littman is promoting the idea of everyone, not only in America but also
perhaps in the world get a Free computer with Internet connectivity. This would be
through the encouragement of a new ultra portable netbook-like computer whose
price point finally reach that of a small kitchen appliance, such as toasters, blenders
and other so called 'Give-Aways' found in such places as "Banks," savings and loan
institutions and credit unions promotions to bring in new customers or for opening
up a new account, changing direct deposits or dropping old banks for one with a
Free Netbook.  In fact if it were not for the real estate bubble bursting and the wall
street 2007 crash we would have had all this back in 2008....  Trick is this could prove
to be one of the greatest marketing promotions in world history... such would be
the colossal impact of such an offer, especially FREE.  Even  the banks themselves
won't realize what they will have wrought till After-The-Fact.  Want a sneak peek at
the future, click his photo @ the top of this section.  

Mr Littman continues to share his time and knowledge by giving lectures in
many forums and formats worldwide. His web site continues to keep his many
followers up on the latest happenings in the world of technology, media and
communications. Beta testing many radical inventions, accessories and unique
eclectic 'toys' picked up from around the world. In the future there will be two
kinds of businesses. Those that are on the web... and those that are going...
                                                  OUT OF BUSINESS!

                        Final words of advise...  "SEEK WISDOM."
