Port Lockroy is a natural harbour on the Antarctic Peninsula of the British Antarctic Territory. After its discovery in 1903 by the French Antarctic Expedition it was used for whaling and British military operations (Operation Tabarin) during World War II and then continued to operate as a British research station until 1962.
In 1996 Port Lockroy was renovated and is now a museum and post office operated by the United Kingdom Antarctic Heritage Trust. Proceeds from the small souvenir shop fund the upkeep of the site and other historic sites and monuments in Antarctica.

On November 29, 2018, the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice hosted a reception where newly minted advanced medical office assistants (AMOAs) presented their capstone projects, all designed with a practical focus to address an aspect of practice in the office where they work.
UFV Continuing Education developed the AMOA program in collaboration with the Division of Family Practice to train medical office assistants to tackle advanced office and clinical support tasks and create efficiencies in medical offices.

SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAM FIXED BASE GUIDANCE AND NAVIGATION SIMULATOR
One of only three advanced space shuttle orbiter simulators used to train NASA astronauts.
The fixed-base Guidance and Navigation Simulator (GNS) represents one of only three simulators once used to train astronauts for the Space Shuttle Program at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. Along with the motion-base Shuttle Mission Simulator (SMS) and the Fixed-Base Simulator (FBS), these complex machines were used to create a series of various mission tasks ranging from full mission rehearsals down to recreating specific exercises such as atmosphere entry or launching satellites.
Predating the SMS and FBS, the GNS was built in the late 1970s and operational by 1982. Initially it was primarily used only to test and verify guidance and navigation software that would later be installed in the SMS, FBS, and orbiters. As such it originally did not have visual computer-generated windscreen displays and much of the interior was unfinished, though it did contain the same complex array of cockpit instrumentation, controls, and computer displays operated by five distinct general-purpose computers (GPC) present in actual orbiters.
Following the Challenger accident investigation, the Rogers Commission suggested that NASA invest in additional crew training simulators to provide increased and expanded training and to handle the higher frequency of missions. However, the cost of providing an additional SMS or FBS proved too expensive, so NASA elected to upgrade the GNS into a full fixed-base crew simulator that was essentially identical to the FBS.
The upgraded GNS flight deck was enhanced to provide a more realistic appearance and a full visual computer-generated imagery system for the six forward facing windscreens. Computer-generated imagery (CGI) was a new science in the early 1980s and all the simulators used a first-generation CGI system, rudimentary by today's standards.
For 20 years the upgraded GNS was used interchangeably with the FBS and it is likely that every post-Challenger crew spent time in the GNS practicing launch, ascent, orbit, re-entry, and landing procedures.
With the end of the Space Shuttle Program, the GNS was retired in 2011. In late 2020 the GNS was used on the set of a science fiction movie due to be released in late 2021 [not sure why they’re being cryptic, its Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall]. The filmmakers modified the simulator's external appearance, making the GNS more closely resemble the outer surface of an actual orbiter, along with internal cabin modifications. Following movie shooting, the GNS flight deck was donated to the Pima Air & Space Museum in early 2021.
Friday, Chad and Jeff attended an advanced composite fabrication workshop at the Kreysler & Associates manufacturing facility near Vallejo, California. The day started with a broad overview of composite technology and its applications for architecture. Attendees were then taken on a tour of the facility and watched demonstrations of carbon fiber being infused with resin by vacuum and closed-mold methods. At the time of the tour, the facility was being used to produce the cladding for SFMOMA (San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)’s new expansion, designed by Snøhetta, and participants witnessed each stage of the fabrication process for the unique panel system. We are excited by the possibilities and potential uses of this strong and lightweight material because is stronger and lighter than steel and comes in any color, texture, shape, or size.

I wanted the second shot to look "homey". Warm and old. I cranked up the ISO (a little to far, I regret) and used Shadow to the max as White Balance setting, the cable in the background is irritating -but I need sleep now ...
Again an excercise to push your inner weak self a little further ...
Critique, please ...
This was a big achievement for me earlier this year, I've only been riding three years and now I've passed my advanced test with a F1rst
With the aim to contribute to the improvement of IELTS test preparation Vietnam, the British Council IELTS have been organising teacher training workshops in Vietnam for the past 8 years. Teacher training is one of our key activities that we offer to our IELTS partners to provide the teachers with insights of how IELTS are marked and practical skills of teaching IELTS in order to help the students reach their full potential in the real exam. This year we are very delighted to welcome nearly 70 teachers to the British Council's Practical Teaching Methodology Workshop - IELTS Advanced 2017, organised in Hanoi on 19th & 20th August 2017.
Với mục đích nâng cao chất lượng dạy và học IELTS tại Việt Nam, Hội đồng Anh đã và đang tổ chức các khóa tập huấn nâng cao năng lực giảng dạy dành cho giáo viên IELTS trong suốt 8 năm qua. Chương trình tập huấn dành cho giáo viên là một trong những hoạt động quan trọng dành riêng cho các đối tác IELTS của Hội đồng Anh trên khắp cả nước nhằm cung cấp cho các giáo viên những hiểu biết sâu sắc và cập nhật về bài thi IELTS, cách thức chấm điểm của bài thi IELTS và những phương pháp giảng dạy thực tiễn có thể áp dụng ngay trong lớp học, thông qua đó giúp đỡ cho các học viên của đối tác đạt được phong độ tốt nhất và số điểm IELTS mơ ước. Năm nay Hội đồng Anh rất vinh dự được chào đón gần 70 giảng viên IELTS tới từ mạng lưới các đối tác tham dự khóa tập huấn nâng cao British Council's Practical Teaching Methodology Workshop - IELTS Advanced diễn ra tại Hà Nội trong 2 ngày 19-20 tháng 8 năm 2017.

The National STEM Guitar Project, in partnership with NSF Advanced Technological Education (ATE) Centers with funding provided through a grant from The National Science Foundation (#1304405), hosts innovative Guitar Building Institutes around the United States. The 5-day institutes, combined with additional instructional activities comprising 80 hours, provide faculty training on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) for middle, high school, and post-secondary faculty. The institutes present and teach participants hands-on, applied learning techniques to help engage students and spark excitement for learning STEM subject matter.
Nationwide, there are increasing concerns from businesses about the supply of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics trained workers. Science and math test scores in the U.S. are among the lowest around the world.
The goal and objective of the STEM Guitar Building Institutes is to showcase a new way to present learning for students with applied methods.
