These expansion joints were designed for 13" movement. They are capable of withstanding temperatures of 1100F. These particular joints are externally pressurized. Externally pressurizing a bellows eliminates squirm as a limitation to the design and permits the safe acceptance of large amounts of axial thermal expansion.

The Regal Cinema opened on 14th September 1931 with Owen Nares in "The Middle Watch". Designed by architect Horace G. Bradley of Birmingham, externally it was given an Art Deco style. There were two entrances, one on Dormer Place and another for the rear seats on Portland Place. The original seating capacity was for 1,305 on a stadium plan, with a raised stepped section at the rear, rather than an overhanging balcony. The proscenium was 45 feet wide and on each side of its opening were two back-lit, coloured glass, surreal style dragons, adding to the Oriental style of the auditorium. The Regal Cinema was equipped with a Barbieri 3Manual/6Rank organ which was opened by Frederick Jukes. It is thought that this was the only British cinema installation of this Italian made instrument. The organ was removed in 1955 when CinemaScope was installed. An additional facility was a cafe, located in the foyer. In November 1936, the Regal Cinema was taken over by the Stratford Picture House Co. Ltd. they were part of the Clifton Cinemas chain.
The Regal Cinema was equipped for 70mm presentations in December 1969, re-opening with Ron Moody in "Oliver". It was at this time that the main entrance on Dormer Place was removed and an office building erected in its place, a new entrance was built on Augusta Place and the former rear seating entrance on Portland Place was bricked up and subsequently demolished.
In January 1993, Apollo Leisure Ltd. purchased the Regal Cinema and they submitted plans to to create a new screen out of the 1969-built office space. This opened on 19th April 1996 with 144 seats. The original main auditorium was tripled in July 1996, with two screens converted from the sides of the raised stepped area and the other using the former front stalls and these three screens were served from the original projection box. In 2000, two additional screens were built by expanding out into the car park. Seating capacities in the 6-screens are now: 286, 174, 117, 96, 116 and 109. In 2014 it was taken over by Vue.

Can you believe that I did not write for such a long time ! So much has happened that one becomes taciturn. Maybe also externally. If I had my own desk, just for my own use, a ready fountain pen and a ready notebook , perhaps I would not have such long pauses. But there are no external causes, only internal ones.
And so all was not written down : The move to Tel Aviv, the partition and the Jewish State, the unrest, the long development of the war, Harry's journey to the US. --The winter came and now is gone, many sad and unpleasant days went by, the spring is here and with it a lot of pain. We lived through two hard wars, but this one is our own, and that is a completely different thing.

War, death, bombing, victory and defeat, fear and terror. Mortal fear in the eyes of Eri during the bombing, as the bombs fell close to where the children played. Eri was just with other kids on the roof of the building next to ours, the building where Dr. Rabau plans to live. He ran back home, death-pale, covered with sweat . I, and the other neighbors sat in the "shelter" , actually a neighbor's apartment on the ground floor. " Ima, don't get excited, don't get excited, I see you get excited." In the evening, he does not want to stay by himself. Yesterday he went , by his own wish, to a performance of Herschel Ostropoli. I asked him how he like it. " Oh, don't ask. I don't want to think about it. Everybody sat there and laughed . I was serious and could not laugh. I had to think about the wounded and the dead" . And his big dark eyes seem like they saw and realized the sorrow of the world.
Editor's note:
Hershel Ostropolier was born in Balta in the Ukraine during the second half of the 18th century. Hershel was hired as a kind of court jester for the amusement of Rabbi Boruch, the hereditary Hasidic tzaddik of Miedziboz. In that capacity he spun out a rich collection of tales about himself.
Hershel’s story "The Feast" features a group of wealthy Hasidim who make fun of Hershel while sharing a coach with him. To avenge himself he extends an invitation to the Hasidim from a particular innkeeper to a lavish banquet. Then he turns to the innkeeper and tells him that the Hasidim would like to hold a banquet at the inn and that they will spare no expense.Hershel laughs to himself throughout the luxurious banquet, but manages to steal away just before it was over, and just before the innkeeper presents his bill to the Hasidim.
The Hershel stories are a similar phenomenon as those of the merry Dutch prankster, Tyl Eulenspiegel. Tyl brought laughter to the Dutch population during the hard years of the Spanish occupation by telling stories of tricks he played on the oppressors. Tyl, like Hershel, became a legendary figure because of the stories which grew up around him. Although typically Jewish, Hershel shares with Tyl a guise of folk jester and a style of wit designed to provide a people with an outlet during difficult times.
The pilot of an 824 Squadron C Flight Sea King waiting on QRA. Sounds strange to talk in these terms but for a couple of days we kept a Sea King ready to go.... until the more organised flypro emerged.
These 15 pressure relief safety valve connector expansion joints were manufactured from 316SS, A-335 P22, A-387 Gr22, A106, and A-51670. They were externally pressurized to prevent steam blow back. These externally pressurized expansion joints were attached to the relief valves in the power plant. They assist in maintaining pressure as well as provide for 7 axial and 6 lateral travel. These joints can handle applicable loads of up to 150 PSIG at 535F and 460 PSIG at 885F, but can function if temperatures reach 1,000F. They range from 30 to 85 in length and weigh between 400 lbs and 1,600 lbs. Dye penetrate, air, and soap bubble tests were completed for quality and performance assurance.

External entrance to Darbar Hall (literally- King's Audience Hall). The palace is remarkable for nearly perfect symmetry internally while being assymmetrical externally.

Minaret is a 50' tower that can be scaled externally to the midpoint, then entered into and climbed to the top. A latticed stainless steel dome on top allows people to see out without danger of falling.The tower is in 6 sections. The bottom 3 are based on the vertebra of a lion.Steel and redwood will be combined to form a climbable structure.The upper 3 sections are painted to resemble snake skin and are smooth on the exterior to discourage people climbing externally.An interior access portal allows people to climb up to the dome.Light and sound effects will enhance the experience, especially when climbing internally.

While deployed to Herat, Afghanistan, SFC Eric Sears (right) took great satisfaction in helping commanders meet requirements that had a direct impact on Soldiers’ quality of life. Part of that effort was to host a conference for local Afghan vendors to help them understand the U.S. government’s contracting requirements. (Photo courtesy of USARAF Public Affairs)

St Mary Magdalene, Sandringham, Norfolk
Externally unassuming, and largely rebuilt over a period of thirty years or so from the 1880s. The interior however is a spectacular jewel of a church, everything focused on the sumptuous chancel, a 1911 memorial to King Edward VII who had been bought the Sandringham estate by his mother Queen Victoria when he was Prince of Wales.
Much of the glass is by Kempe & Co including an arrangement of poor fragments of continental glass. In the upper lights and in the porch are a series of 14 saints in late medieval glass, some of them much restored.
