Standard configuration with Storage Module and Standard Indicators.
The wheels are a tough, lightweight material especially suited to gravel or rocky surface conditions. They are also impervious to puncturing and provide excellent traction on loose surfaces. Traditional steel belted radials (not shown here) and mission specific alternatives are also available in a range of capabilities to suit a variety of offworld environments.
When F-86Ds were upgraded to the F-86L configuration, an AN/ARR-39 datalink receiver was fitted, which had a blade-like antenna sticking out of the fuselage just forward of and below the starboard wing. The AN/ARC-27 command radio of the F-86D was replaced by an AN/ARC-34 set. An AN/APX-25 identification radar was added, and a new AN/ARN-31 glide slope receiver was provided.
All Follow-On aircraft were brought up to F-86D-45 standards before starting with the electronics upgrades, including the installation of the drag chute in the tail. In the F-86L, two protruding cooling air intakes were added to the fuselage sides just aft of the wing, replacing the older recessed cooling ducts. The same J47-GE-33 or J47-GE-17B engine of the F-86D was retained, but the F-86L was fitted with the F-86F-40 wing, with twelve-inch wingtip extensions and "6-3" leading edge extensions with slats. The wingspan and wing area were 39.1 feet and 313.37 square feet respectively. The new wing improved the handing ability and provided better turning at high altitudes. The reconditioned F-86Ls retained the armament of twenty-four rockets of the F-86D.
The first flight took place on December 27, 1955. That particular aircraft had just the SAGE equipment installed, and the first conversion incorporating all of the Follow-On changes did not fly until May of 1956. A total of 981 F-86Ds were modified to the F-86L configuration. After conversion in 1956-57, F-86Ls were issued to most of the ADC wings that were using the F-86D. First to receive the F-86L was the 317th FIS at McChord AFB, which first received the planes in late November of 1956. The service of the F-86L with the ADC was destined to be quite brief, since by the time the last F-86L conversion was delivered, the type was already being phased out in favor of the Convair F-102A and F-106A delta-winged interceptors. The last F-86Ls left ADC service by 1960.
It should be noted that F-86L aircraft were also assigned to the 196th FIS, which was an integral part of Air Defense Command. The 196th FIS was based at Ontario ANGB, and the successor unit is the Guard refueling unit currently based at March Field. (Source: Ray V. Miller).
During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, six ANG F-86L squadrons were on alert. The last F-86Ls were withdrawn from ANG service during the summer of 1965.
-March Field Air Museum website (www.marchfield.org/)Nicknamed the "Flying Vacuum" because of its low slung jet intakes, the F-89 Scorpion would ingest any loose objects it crossed paths with on the runway. An attempt to place screens over the intakes failed when, at high altitudes, ice formed over the screens and caused the engines to flare out. Designed as an all weather ground attack fighter, the Scorpion was the first US interceptor armed with nuclear air-to-air missiles and the first aircraft to live fire an AIR-2 Genie nuclear air-to-air missile on 19 July 1957.
According to the Air Force Historical Research Agency (AFHRA/RSA), Maxwell AFB, AL, the museum's F-89J has the following history:
The aircraft at the March Field Museum is a J model, serial number 52-1949. It was manufactured by Northrop and delivered to the Air Force on 24 November 1954
In June, 1981, it was transported by truck to March AFB Museum. The nose radar equipment was removed and placed into a display case by former radar technician who was in the RAF during WWII. The display shows the many glass radio tubes in use at the time. This aircraft is on loan from the USAF.

While photographing for this project I took a more creative approach when photographing the ways in which natural surroundings (in this case-the sun) can refresh and enliven our experiences. This shot has a strong influence from Valie Export and her "Body Configuration" idea. This photo was taken on a bell tower against the setting sun in the background. Without the beautiful sunset illuminating the night's sky, this photo would caring far less meaning. This was my favorite photo from the series as I feel it captures my theme in the most creative and abstract way. I look forward to hearing any feedback!
This configuration - a 3 axle dump with a "drop axle" - has become quite popular in California during the past 20 years. The drop axle is a non-driving, self-steering axle deployed by inflating its air suspension bags to provide extra carrying capacity when loaded. Its certified GAWR is 12,000#. When the truck is empty the air bags are deflated and it is lifted off the ground.
The baseline configuration of the Oshkart SMTV (Scalable Medium Tactical Vehicle) family, the Mk601A is the standard two-door 6x6 cargo hauler configuration.
Features include opening doors and top hatch, a cab capable of seating 2 minifigs with body armor and headgear, foldable gunner’s seat, turning front wheels, center-pivoting rear axles, and spare tire with lift arm.
A special thanks needs to be given to Abdullah750Pakistan. This originally started as a project to clean up and make a buildable and more minifig-friendly version of his Ural 63708. As you can see though, it’s turned into a project to create a series of trucks in the same vein of the Oshkosh MTVR, Navistar 7000 MV, and Ural 63704-0010 families.
As with my other builds, all parts used in this are real production pieces.
If you're interested in this build, a file can be found here:
The special of this wheel configuration is long axle, about 6.250 mm. To need demands devour a minimum radius of 150 meters, first wheel and sixth wheel have tolerance movement in the lateral direction of 30mm, while the conducting wheels are 100 mm.
Conducting wheel have pushback spring (terugstelinrichting) with the initial strengh 350 kg, and maximum 3500 kg. That pushback spring have a job to keep the wheel so that back to the position after devour sharp turns.

The Vice-Admiral Kulakov was commissioned in 1982 and was on combat duty with the Northern Fleet until March 1991, when she was retired for repairs that lasted more than 18 years. The ship returned to the Severomorsk base on December 7, 2010 and is to return to active duty. On 5 January 2011, a fire broke out in one of the ship's mess-rooms. It was reported to be caused by a short circuit. The damage was minimal and did not reduce the combat effectiveness of the ship.On 3 September 2011 the destroyer conducted the first underway landings tests for the new Ka-52K helicopter.
The Udaloy-II is modified by the replacement of the SS-N-14 by the SS-N-22, reflecting a change in emphasis from ASW to anti-shipping, however, her standoff ASW capability is retained by firing SS-N-15 missiles from the torpedo tubes. Other changes include an improved self defense capability with the addition of the gun/SAM CIWS systems. Similar to Udaloy externally, it was a new configuration with the Moskit antiship missiles, a twin 130 mm gun, the Udav antitorpedo system and several anti-aircraft systems.
Powered by a modern gas turbine engine, it was equipped with more capable sonars, an integrated air defense fire control system, and a number of digital electronic systems based on state-of-the-art circuitry. The original MGK-355 Polinom integrated sonar system (with NATO reporting names Horse Jaw and Horse Tail respectively for the hull mounted and towed portions) on Udaloy-I ships is replaced by its successor, a newly designed Zvezda M-2 sonar system that has a range in excess of 100 km in the 2nd convergence zone. The Zvezda sonar system is considered by its designers to be the equivalent of American AN/SQS-53 in terms of overall performance, but it is much bulkier and heavier than its American counterpart: the length of the hull mounted portion is near 30 meters. The torpedo approaching warning function of Polinom sonar system is retained and further improved by its successor Zvezda sonar system.
HST Power Car W43029 brings an early WR set into Exeter St Davids station. It is notable that the leading TS is still one of the originals rather than the later TGS design with a guard's compartment.
The most significant architectural historic element of Montalbano, Elicona is the castle which dominates a haphazard and tortuous medieval urban fabric, meandering up and down the alleyways, molding itself to the configuration of the rocky promontory.The little houses constructed in sandstone are filled with authentic history, although in certain places a sense of abandonment is felt which should disappear with the planned restoration works.Erected on pre-existing Byzantine and Arab structures, the upper part of the castle is comprised of a Norman-Suevian fortress, while the lower part is made up of a fortified Suevian-Aragonese palatium (palace).The upper part, a rectangular fortress, is enclosed on its two extremities by two towers, one with a square plan and the other, typically Suevian, with a pentagonal plan, which functions as a donjon.The embattled perimeter walls date back to the Suevian period, and represent the most important and best preserved a saettiere defensive configuration in Sicily. The date 1270 still engraved in the cover of the large cistern is evidence of its Angevin phase.Instead it is to Frederick II of Aragon that we owe that reconstruction of the edifice and its transformation from fortress to regiae aedes, royal residence for summer sojourn (1302-08). The sovereign had eighteen large windows open on to the perimeter walls above the Suevian embrasures as well as a considerable number of portals and gates. Thanks to the modifications executed by the Aragonese king, the castle of Montalbano is one of the most coherent and harmonious of the Sicilian Middle Ages. The most extraordinary element in the entire castle is the royal chapel of the Byzantine era, which according to some scholars preserves the remains of Arnaldo da Villanova, one of the most important personages of his time. Physician, alchemist and religious reformer suspected of heresy, he died in 1310, and his numerous stays in Montalbano with king Frederick are well documented.
Il castello Svevo-Aragonese rappresenta l’elemento architettonico più illustre del luogo. Fulcro del centro storico, domina il suggestivo borgo medioevale, irregolare e tortuoso, che si adatta alla conformazione del promontorio roccioso.
Fu edificato e fortificato dall’Imperatore Federico II di Svevia intorno all’anno 1210 su preesistenti costruzioni bizantine ed arabe, raso al suolo a seguito di una rivolta popolare nel 1233, venne ricostruito tra il 1302 e 1308 dal re Federico II d’Aragona, e trasformato in reggia aedes, residenza reale per i soggiorni estivi, raggiungendo in quel tempo il massimo splendore. Egli trasformò il corpo svevo da fortezza a reggia, donandogli quell’imponenza elegante e composta che ne fanno un unicum nel suo genere, per cui il castello è costituito in alto da una piazzaforte normanno-sveva e in basso dal palatium fortificato svevo-aragonese.Sui lati corti spiccano due torri, una rettangolare, l’altra pentagonale. Nei vasti ambienti definiti da muri incisi da eleganti portali in pietra, si scorgono le zone un tempo adibite alla guardia, ai magazzini, alla rappresentanza, agli alloggi reali.L’elemento più straordinario dell’intero castello è la “cappella reale”, riconoscibile come “tricora” o “cuba” di epoca bizantina, caratterizzata da tre absidi, di cui le due laterali ricavate direttamente nello spessore delle mura e da tracce di affreschi. Qui, secondo il Fazello (1490-1570), sembra abbia avuto sepoltura Arnaldo da Villanova, medico, alchimista e riformatore religioso, morto intorno al 1310 e del quale sono attestate numerose presenze a Montalbano insieme al re Federico.

This was my first configuration on my GF2 for super macro photography. Keep in mind this was simply my first test setup for macro after upgrading from a Lumix fz28 as my macro shooter. That's also the reason why I foolishly jammed the DCR 250 in there, which really provides no benefit in magnification...something I learned after posting this picture.
My macro setup is always a serious work in progress that's for sure. I've hence moved on to older reverse mount lenses with f stop lower than this stock lens.
Hopeful potential changes:
-auto bellows+M42 adapter
-Nissin Di466+flash bracket (after my olympus fl-36 died...womp womp)
Update: Just got some extension tubes and an adapter for an old 35m Steinheil :)
Note: The DCR 250 is pretty useless in this setup, really doesn't add much magnification if at all.
This is a screen shot of me setting up frame relay and serial ppp between 3 of my routers. Its running through a cisco 2511 with 16 terminal lines. So I can have upto 16 telnet windows open
Final configuration: Termignoni silencers with modified dB killers installed. I drilled out one 1/2-in hole in each dB killer to reduce backpressure and smooth out the re-mapped power curve without significantly increasing radiated noise.
I think this is a good compromise between performance and overall noise. The system is still very loud, but nowhere near as ear-splitting as the full open-throated Termignoni system.
I now pass the "do not generate the scowl as you pass a cop" test. At least a dozen times in just a day or two. Hooray. But, parenthetically, why are there oodles of cops in speed traps right now?

Bike shown with the rack in the porteur configuration.
Bike write up:
The 2011 North American Handmade Bicycle Show (NAHBS) has arrived. I would like to start The Bicycle Escape’s coverage of the event with my new ride, the pictured YiPsan cruiser.
Some of you may remember the YiPsan Sunflower bike that won the “People’s Choice Award” and “Best City Bike” at the 2010 North American Handmade Bicycle Show. Well that beauty belonged to my beauty (aka wife Danielle). At the time the bike was being designed there was discussion of a dude’s version of the now famous cruiser. NAHBS 2011 offered the perfect excuse for such a bike to become a reality.
The design of the bike is function forward. Racks, generator lights, fenders, a bell, and a kickstand adorn the machine. To say it is functional is not to overlook the bikes beauty. The paint was done by the skilled hand of Keith Anderson. His flawless finish is complimented by lots of high-polished bits and pieces. When polished parts were not available (they usually were not) we had them polished. The rims for example started out as a nice silvery/grey color but it was not shiny enough for this build. We could do better. The kickstand, brake lever blades, crank, ring, fenders, and Shimano Alfine rear hub all received the same treatment. We even replaced the kickstand and brake lever pivot pins with pins made of brass. So yeah, I am kinda worked-up about this bike.
One of the original motivating forces behind this bike was the transforming front rack. I wanted a porteur style front rack that could transform into a small randonneur rack. After discussing this idea with Renold Yip at YiPsan Bicycles he took the idea a step further. He designed and built a rack platform with removable left and right sides. With the sides removed you are left with a small front rack. The sides can then be installed on the fork forming a low-rider rack to accommodate side bags.
I am really pleased with the way this bike came together and am super excited to see my bike displayed alongside the best our industry has to offer. Stay tuned for more posts from Austin.
I had collected sufficient anecdotal evidence that people approved of the new furniture configuration and that, as needed, they were making minor alterations as needed.
Thus I set my sights on the peripheral environment. I had been wanting to organize formally the organized chaos that was the random stacks of books on the shelves and the assorted posters on the common room walls. I was spurred to do this because the complaint that I had made about the common room's incoherent conditions on a postgraduate feedback form had been heard in fact by the administrators. When a staff member called me, I knew something could at length be done.
The problem with all the books on the shelves and the posters on the walls is that people have developed unspoken rules for why they are placed there; yet the consequences of their placement without regulation are obvious: while people can browse other people's refuse and find treasure in a pile of books that otherwise would be thrown out, this purpose is not explicitly stated: this tradition is passed on by word of mouth or by guesswork. In addition, since no other rules govern these piles, they grow to such heights that browsing the stacks become tedious: indeed, there comes a point at which a pile of loose books and articles grows to an unmanageable, unsearchable multitude. Looking at some of these items, dated from, even, a decade ago, their relevance has passed. They should no longer exist and should be thrown out. Unfortunately such a rule has not existed for their passing, yet.
This is where I, with the help of the research office, step in. I toured the premises with the administrator, pointing out this unbridled growth and concluding that the more these piles are able to grow unchecked, the less effective these piles become to users. She nodded and for the most part agreed with my assessment. She will follow up by asking the administration to perhaps develop rules for the timely disposal (and replenshiment) of the refuse literature. If possible, per my friend's suggestion, the next cycle of refuse books can be positioned upright for easier browsing by users.
While I was in a cleaning mood, I also asked the administrator to help me to clean up my office in 102 Hui Oi Chow. Like elsewhere in the building and on campus, this office serves an ancillary purpose in being a storage room for university, faculty, department and individual refuse. I pointed out to the administrator individuals' junk and university junk accumulating on shelves, by walls and in corners. The administrator promised to remove the excess equipment and furniture. I would do my part to clean up by asking people in the office to claim their excess belongings lest they be thrown out.
The kit and its assembly:
This build followed a spontaneous inspiration, and it became another contribution to the “in the navy” group build at whatifmodlers.com in early 2020. I actually had the Vampire kit already stashed away for a while, and the plan to convert it into a propeller-driven aircraft with a radial engine and a pusher configuration à la Saab 21 had been there – but I lacked an idea for an operator, so that I could build the background story around it. With the “in the navy” theme, it suddenly clicked – why not the IJN? The Vampire is a rather compact and slender aircraft, so there’s IMHO some Japanese “style” in the design, and after the torturous build of HMS Cerberus I wanted some kind of relief.
The Vampire kit is the vintage Heller mold from 1979, but actually in a mid-Nineties Revell re-boxing. Like many other Heller kits, it comes with raised panels, but detail is sufficient (nice dashboard, landing gear is O.K., and the kit comes with separate air brakes) – the molds seem to be a bit worn, though, I guess a “true” old Heller kit is more crisp and would be the better choice.
At the core of the conversion plan was the implantation of a radial engine in place of the jet exhaust. I found a donor part from a Hobby Boss MC.200 Saetta – a bit vintage, but it had the right diameter and I actually liked the ring of bulges on the cowling. Internally, a styrene tube adapter was added for a freely spinning propeller.
While adding a prop to a jet seems to be an easy task, the real challenge behind such a conversion are the many other changes that have to be made to the airframe. This includes a (considerably) longer landing gear and the respective wells, but also the tail surfaces. There’s also the question how the new radial engine actually breathes, where exhausts can be located, and a cooling system is necessary, too.
Work started with the search for new landing gear struts, and I also used different wheels – for instance, the main wheels come from a Hasegawa F9F Panther, while the front wheel comes from a Frog He 162 and is probably 35 years old(!). In order to make the longer struts fit into the airframe, I elongated the wells in the wings towards the fuselage, so that the track width was reduced – but with the Vampire’s small airframe and original wide stance, this was no serious problem. From the inside, they were faired with styrene profile material, and the extended covers were scratched – esp. the parts for the wings, with their bulges for the tail boom tips, were fiddly.
In order to move the overall look a bit further away from the Vampire, I completely changed the fin arrangement. The original, rounded and rather small fins and the bullet-shaped fairings that hold the stabilizer outside of the original exhaust blast were deleted. Once the wings and the tail booms were added to the fuselage, the stabilizer was mounted between the booms, in a slightly lower position. For the new fins I wanted a layout that would, beyond a more squarish shape that would better match the wings, protect the propeller. Therefore, I used stabilizers from a KP Yak-23; each was cut into two pieces, tailored further to match the rest of the aircraft, and glued in positions above and underneath the booms. Looks quite weird, as if the aircraft had been designed upside down, but it’s a rather pragmatic solution that has already been used on some pusher designs in the past.
The six-blade propeller was scratched from a spinner, carved from a thick piece of sprue, plus a metal axis and six single blades that were taken from the rather wacky one-piece propellers of Airfix’s Ki-46 kit.
Hollow steel needles were used as barrels for the Type 99 cannons in the lower fuselage.
This is a photograph from the SSE AIRTRICITY Dublin Marathon which was held in Dublin, Ireland on Bank Holiday Monday 26th October 2015 at 09:00.The Dublin Marathon has been held annually since 1980. The marathon course starts at Fitzwilliam Square in the city center and finishes at Merrion Square. For the past number of years there have been some changes to the configuration of the route at the start and finish due to traffic and transportation infrastructure work around the city center. However the majority of the race proceeds in an anti-clockwise direction around the city passing through the Phoenix Park, Chapelizod, Inchicore, South Circular Road, Walkinstown, Terenure, Clonskeagh, UCD, Stillorgan Dual Carriage Way, Ballsbridge and finishing up Northumberland Road and Mount Street. As always the organisation is first class and this seen just under 13,000 people complete the marathon course.
The weather conditions were not very good for marathon running with runners facing race and windy conditions around much of the course.
Overall the poor weather conditions did not make for very good photographic conditions particularly around the start and finish area where it was a little darker around the tall buildings and streets.
The full set of photographs from the start and the finish are available at our Flickr set for Dublin Marathon 2015 https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157658064057124

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

The weather conditions were not very good for marathon running with runners facing race and windy conditions around much of the course.
Overall the poor weather conditions did not make for very good photographic conditions particularly around the start and finish area where it was a little darker around the tall buildings and streets.
The full set of photographs from the start and the finish are available at our Flickr set for Dublin Marathon 2015 https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157658064057124

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
Introducing the new L47 Objective Squad Based Bullpup Rifle Series, from MKC. This is the Light Machine Gun configuration, chambered in 7.62 NATO. Veering away from the traditional SAW design, this bullpup rifle sports a helical magazine, which holds 50 rounds. Different from the rest of the L47 series rifles, the iron sights are made to help the user adjust elevation, and easily contrast MKC tracer rounds. Automatic firing only, the L47 LMG is the perfect, multi-purpose machine gun for urban, squad based combat.
The exhaust system determines the correct under cab components as shown on the following diagrams. All three configurations are available, with the new 45 and 70 gallon fuel tanks, 1) right hand under cab 2) horizontal series, and 3) horizontal crossover. These also show the new narrow battery and tool box to maximize frame space. Green Box – Narrow Battery Box / Narrow Tool Box
Gray Box – Fuel Tank
Blue Box – DEF Tank
Red Box – DPF / SCR
Yellow Box - Tailpipe
I had collected sufficient anecdotal evidence that people approved of the new furniture configuration and that, as needed, they were making minor alterations as needed.
Thus I set my sights on the peripheral environment. I had been wanting to organize formally the organized chaos that was the random stacks of books on the shelves and the assorted posters on the common room walls. I was spurred to do this because the complaint that I had made about the common room's incoherent conditions on a postgraduate feedback form had been heard in fact by the administrators. When a staff member called me, I knew something could at length be done.
The problem with all the books on the shelves and the posters on the walls is that people have developed unspoken rules for why they are placed there; yet the consequences of their placement without regulation are obvious: while people can browse other people's refuse and find treasure in a pile of books that otherwise would be thrown out, this purpose is not explicitly stated: this tradition is passed on by word of mouth or by guesswork. In addition, since no other rules govern these piles, they grow to such heights that browsing the stacks become tedious: indeed, there comes a point at which a pile of loose books and articles grows to an unmanageable, unsearchable multitude. Looking at some of these items, dated from, even, a decade ago, their relevance has passed. They should no longer exist and should be thrown out. Unfortunately such a rule has not existed for their passing, yet.
This is where I, with the help of the research office, step in. I toured the premises with the administrator, pointing out this unbridled growth and concluding that the more these piles are able to grow unchecked, the less effective these piles become to users. She nodded and for the most part agreed with my assessment. She will follow up by asking the administration to perhaps develop rules for the timely disposal (and replenshiment) of the refuse literature. If possible, per my friend's suggestion, the next cycle of refuse books can be positioned upright for easier browsing by users.
While I was in a cleaning mood, I also asked the administrator to help me to clean up my office in 102 Hui Oi Chow. Like elsewhere in the building and on campus, this office serves an ancillary purpose in being a storage room for university, faculty, department and individual refuse. I pointed out to the administrator individuals' junk and university junk accumulating on shelves, by walls and in corners. The administrator promised to remove the excess equipment and furniture. I would do my part to clean up by asking people in the office to claim their excess belongings lest they be thrown out.
The Montana Theatre was built in 1936. The seating configuration is a long narrow layout with a regular raked floor in the front 2/3 of the auditorium, with stadium-style seating in the back. The walls are covered in cloth tapestries which are all original, along with many of the lighting fixtures in the auditorium and lobby.

This is a photograph from the 4th and final round of the 2017 Pat Finnerty Memorial 5KM Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 24th May 2017 at 20:00. This is the final round and consequently some of the decisions around the final configuration of the category prizes are still open for resolution. The Road League is promoted and organised by Mulligar Harriers Athletic Club and sponsored by local sponsors including O'Brien's Renault dealership. This is a very well established as an annual event which takes place on every Wednesday night in the month of May. Tonight's weather was absolutely wonderful. Warm summer air filled the Belvedere area as the runners were treated to perfect summer weather. Just under 200 participants took part in the race which runs a traffic free course over a mix of road and hilly forest trail. Congratulations are due to all of the Mullingar Harriers club who put this excellent series together.
Timing and event management was provided by http://www.myrunresults.com/. Their website will contain the results to today's race.

The Spirit of Chartwell is an unusual addition to the Luxury Train Club, as it is a luxury River Cruiser. However, the interiors, atmosphere and attentive service are redolent of a luxury train. Indeed, the inspiration behind the riverboat’s public areas was the Rene Lalique 1929 Pullman car ‘Cote d’Azur’ operated by the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits. It was previously based in London, England, when in 2012 it was completely refurbished for The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. It played a major role in the Thames Pageant, where it was in the flotilla as The Royal Barge, and carried Her Majesty Queen Elisabeth and HRH Prince Philip. This riverboat defines luxury Douro River cruising, setting the standard for service and quality. The finest interior furnishings, the impressive amount of space, and the high number of staff members per guest, all work together to create an elegant, club-like atmosphere for the fortunate few; an environment where every need is predicted and promptly attended to during the calm passage along the majestic Douro River Valley.
Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum
The Titan IV Stage I rocket delivers 547,600 or 550,900 lb nominal vacuum thrust, depending upon the nozzle configuration. It is essentially two identical engines attached to a single steel frame which mounts onto the launch vehicle. These separate engines operate simultaneously under a single control system. The Stage I rocket engine consists of the following components and subsystems: pump suction (inlet) lines, turbopump assemblies, pump discharge lines, thrust chamber valves, gas generator systems, thrust chambers, autogenous pressurization system, control and instrumentation harnesses, and the engine frame.
The suction lines duct the Aerozine-50 fuel and nitrogen tetroxide oxidizer from the propellant tank lines to the turbopump assemblies, each of which is driven by a turbine rated at over 5000 h.p. The fluid pressure is increased by over 1000 psi, forcing the propellant into the thrust chamber. Thrust chamber valves control the engine start and shutdown. Gas generators are operated by propellant from the combustion chamber inlet lines, downstream of the valves, to drive the turbo pumps to maintain propellant flow. Combustion in the thrust chambers produces gas at pressures over 800 psia and temperatures above 5000° F. This gas is expanded through a convergent-divergent DeLaval design nozzle and exhausted at supersonic velocity to produce thrust.
Thrust vector control (pitch, yaw and roll) is achieved during Stage I flight by pivoting the thrust chambers independently on gimbal bearing mounts. The gimbal action is provided by hydraulic actuators which operate in response to signals from the launch vehicle guidance system.
System reliability is augmented through functional simplicity of design. The engine is hydraulically balanced, requiring no active control of thrust and mixture ratio. It is pre-set to consume propellant at a fixed rate and mixture ratio. Balance orifices in the propellant discharge lines fine tune the engine mixture ratio, controlling propellant flow to the gas generators, resulting in a stabilized turbine speed. Titan storable propellants are hypergolic, meaning they ignite upon contact. Therefore, an ignition system is not required to initiate combustion in the thrust chambers or gas generators.
Dry weight of the LR87-11 engine is 4300 lb for a thrust weight ratio of 128 using the 16.7:1 nozzle extension.

What does it mean to create a truly autonomous machine, independent from human control? And what happens when organs live outside of a body? Could this help us understand that the power of the human body lies in its ability to be different and to take on unexpected forms and identities?
Violently entangled within the performance space are three elements: an artificially intelligent prosthesis, out-of-body organic wombs and a human body. The prosthesis uses artificial intelligence algorithms to learn in real time how to move, exist and perform on stage. The wombs live and pulsate through the activity of microbial cultures. The sounds of the performer’s body are re-synthesised and transformed into a powerful and visceral auditory experience.
