Promotional thing from ICI.
I remember ICI used to be the archetypal Big, Scary Industrial Giant. Haven't heard anything of them for years. Do they even still exist?
The Google Engineering Philosophy
1. All developers work out of a ~single source depot; shared infrastructure!
2. A developer can fix bugs anywhere in the source tree.
3. Building a product takes 3 commands ("get, config, make")
4. Uniform coding style guidelines across company
5. Code reviews mandatory for all checkins
6. Pervasive unit testing, written by developers
7. Unit tests run continuously, email sent on failure
8. Powerful tools, shared company-wide
9. Rapid project cycles; developers change projects often; 20% time
10. Peer-driven review process; flat management structure
11. Transparency into projects, code, process, ideas, etc.
12. Dozens of offices around world => hire best people regardless of location
See my entry on Always Be Coding for more information.
The Clyde Engineering builders plate sits proudly on the short hood of 1204 ) above a slightly worn "Zero Injuries" decal.
Formerly known as A1514 and financed by Western Mining Corporation for the West Australian Government Railway to haul ore trains, this was one of three A Class fitted with dynamic brakes. A1514 was built by Clyde Engineering at Granville in NSW and is presently owned by Genesee & Wyoming Australia (along with sister unit 1203/A1513) for narrow gauge grain haulage out of Port Lincoln.
With the closure of the grain lines from Port Lincoln in mid 2019, the future of 1204 is presently unknown.

In its 22nd year, the Engineering Expo is the college’s premier community outreach event. On average, the college welcomes more than 1,500 K-12 students from Miami-Dade and Broward County schools (elementary, middle, and high school) to the FIU Engineering Center to engage with FIU student organizations, researchers and staff, and to discover the endless possibilities of pursuing a degree in engineering or computing.
Leith Docks are important to Edinburgh as they were and still are the cities link to the sea. Although the types of trade have changed over the years, many of the original dockside buildings survive as modern flats, cafes and pubs. Also surviving is this old swing bridge which lies across the Water of Leith.
Finished in 1963, designed by Stirling and Gowan. The lecture theatres stick out of the building rather neatly and the workshop roofs seem to reflect the idea of terraces (as seen from above) and factory roofs. Winner of the R S Reynolds Memorial Award in 1965 for it's use of aluminium.
UP's "Engineering Special" negotiates the yard leads at Butler as the westbound "Z" holds on the main. The caboose adds some additional "flair" to the shot.
Odd that I was the only railfan on the Hampton Ave bridge....I expected a fleet of railfans...??
Western Engineering welcomed more than 50 alumni and friends back to campus on Sept. 26 as part of Western University's Homecoming weekend.
This year's annual open house was held in the Claudette MacKay-Lassonde Pavilion.

Such a long way down. This was the view from the Hoover Dam looking out to the new bridge.

Robots developed by DU's School of Engineering and Computer Science. Each has a pair of video camera "eyes," so that they can conduct war zone surveillance and even ride alongside troop transports to detect roadside bombs. To learn more about these and other robots being created at DU, see www.du.edu/magazine/archive/2009/04/Building_a_Better_'B.....
Near the Engineering Deck we have converted an old cargo bay into a crew lounge area. We spend the endless hours in deep space cranking out some of our favorite space country classics.
To study engineering in a building such as this is an inspiration.

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla., April 15, 2014. - U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Axel Fiksman, right, 116th Civil Engineering Squadron (CES), Robins Air Force Base (AFB), Ga., Georgia Air National Guard, uses a circular saw to cut an even edge on a portion of a wall frame while Senior Airman Daniel Tift, 143rd CES, Quonset National Guard Base, R.I., and Staff Sgt. Joe Wells, 433rd CES, Lackland AFB, Texas, help to steady the boards during Silver Flag training.
During the weeklong course, Guardsmen from the 116th CES and more than 30 other U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard units trained on building and maintaining bare-base operations at a forward-deployed location. In addition, they honed their combat and survival skills and repaired simulated bomb-damaged runways, set up base facilities and established various critical base operating support capabilities. More than 30 Airmen from the 116th CES attended the exercise that consisted of extensive classroom and hands-on training culminating in an evaluation of learned skills on the last day of class.
