Recent research by the Airfield Research group has revealed that building was nicknamed "Dragon Mountain" by base personnel, Not the often quoted "Magic Mountain" . The first reference to Magic Mountain is in the research notes for the listing of the Building and is in error. The Dragon Mountain name makes more sense as the U2/TR-1 aircraft are nicknamed "The Dragon Lady" and personnel with the 17th RW called themselves "Dragon Keepers"
"The Avionics building, constructed c. 1989 by US Air Force, is a two storey, partly sunken reinforced concrete bunker, rectangular in plan. The building accommodates a drive-through access roadway and is capped with a rough concrete buster cap designed to absorb the impact of a missile before penetrating the bunker's roof.
INTERIOR: The purpose of the avionics building was to service the electronic components of reconnaissance aircraft and process the data retrieved. The interior of the building housed life support systems, stainless steel decontamination rooms, electronics workshops, photographic dark rooms, handling and storage areas. It is protected internally by subterranean 'portcullis' type blast doors on a hydraulic release mechanism. By the main doors are a suite of decontamination rooms and male and female toilets. An internal vehicular decontamination facility is also present. Large rooms on the lower floor housed the computers (now removed) where the data was downloaded and analysed. One of these rooms has a painted motto 'Aircrews live by the knowledge, skill, awareness and integrity of their maintenance people' over the door. A unique feature is the system for maintaining air pressure in the case of attack, by the use of compressed air cylinders on the lower floor, still present. All fixtures and fittings apart from the air cylinders and generators, floor surfaces, wall panelling and doors have been removed.
HISTORY: Land for an airfield at Alconbury was first acquired in 1938 as a satellite landing ground for RAF Upwood and when war broke out, the base was used by Blenheims from RAF Wyton. As part of the US 8th Air Force, it fulfilled a variety of roles until being handed back to the RAF in November 1945. In June 1953, the base was reactivated for the US 3rd Air Force and from 1959, Alconbury assumed its principal Cold War role as the home to various reconnaissance squadrons. In 1983, U2/TR-1 spy planes were permanently based at Alconbury, resulting in the construction of a number of hardened structures including the Avionics building and a number of Hardened Aircraft Shelters which have group value. Following the cessation of the Cold War, flying ceased in March 1995 and the base was released for disposal.

SUMMARY OF IMPORTANCE: The hardened Avionics building at Alconbury airfield was constructed by the US Air Force in 1989. It is a very rare surviving example of this building type, and along with other buildings from this period, represents the physical manifestation of the global division between capitalism and communism that shaped the history of the late 20th century. The Avionics building is unique amongst the few such buildings in England, because of its size, form and internal survival of the vehicular decontamination unit and compressed air re-pressurising system. It is uniquely associated with the U2/TR1 aircraft, stationed only at Alconbury. As one of the last Cold War structures built in the country, it is the most sophisticated hardened structure remaining and as such has very special architectural and historic interest.

I think a white end board was meant to come on the screen otherwise how are you going to read the words.
Forse sono i nostri errori a determinare il nostro destino. Senza quelli che senso avrebbe la nostra vita... Probabilmente se non cambiassimo mai strada non potremmo innamorarci, avere un figlio, essere ciò che siamo... Del resto le stagioni cambiano, e così pure le città. La gente entra nella tua vita e poi ne esce, ma è confortante sapere che coloro che ami rimangono per sempre impressi nel tuo cuore. (Carrie in Sex and the city)
Royal Error - NATOs krigsmaskineri leker krig i Norrland sommaren 2009
Mellan den 8-16 juni 2009 genomförde NATO sin största flygövning det året. Övningen var belägen i Norrbotten och sammanlagt deltog ett 60-tal flygplan och uppemot 2000 soldater från 10 länder. Ett brittiskt hangarfatryg deltog även det i övningen. Syftet med övningen är att öva NATOs snabbinsatsstyrka NATO response force.
Nato är världens största krigsmaskin och kärnvapenklubb. Nato för imperialistiska krig världen över för att säkra USA:s kontroll av världens råvaror och marknader. Ofog tycker inte det är ok att Sverige hyr ut i princip halva landet för att Nato ska öva luftangrepp och bli bättre på att kriga. Vi fanns därför på plats för att protestera och konkret försöka förhindra NATO från att öva!

Let me tell you why this is funny: this is historically an error code used by Microsoft for undetermined errors. I have seen it as far back as classic ASP over 10 years ago. And it still exists, in the Xbox 360. Ouch.

Not only does this book have the pages printed in the wrong order without page numbers, including repeating pages, it keeps saying this in the margin without any apparent errata slip or section. Yes, I see the error.
my baby's been acting up! everytime i shoot, i get Err 99... Canon's generic error code for one of any of 943,000 possible problems.
i think i've got it narrowed down to the SD card that i was using, but it's got one more day before it goes back to the store for an equally sexy replacement!
The Royal Shakespeare Theatre has been closed for most of the pandemic. But hopefully they will be reopening soon.
On the River Avon in Stratford-upon-Avon.
The RSC Riverside Cafe was open, and we went there for our lunch after a walk around the river.
The Comedy of Errors - this shows that the RSC are planning on an open air theatre in the summer and autumn.
One of those "Adobe Flash requires access to your computer" messages seen on the till screens at a local Co-operative supermarket.
Sorry it's not a very clear shot. I have adjusted the colour levels slightly to make it a bit clearer but it was a very quick shoot-and-scoot snapshot!

This is a interesting spelling error that I've caught recently on Buletin Utama (the main prime-time news programme on TV3) but it's in Malay. The headline says that a gigantic seafood can be served to some 400 people.
