The Pittock Mansion is a French Renaissance-style château in the West Hills of Portland, Oregon, United States. It was built in 1914 as a private home for London-born Oregonian publisher Henry Pittock and his wife, Georgiana Burton Pittock. The mansion had many devices that were ahead of it's time including this intercom system.
This power station was built by the Intercom (now Electrabel) in 1921. Monceau sur Sambre was still an independent municipality and the new coal plant was one of the largest in Belgium. In the 50's and 60's, the plant was expanded and after Monceau sur Sambre in 1977 was added to the town of Charleroi this was the main supplier of energy in the region. Originally coal fired, the newer part ran on gas and stood for years standby for any emergencies. It was closed in 2007.
Es el viejo intercomunicador de mi casa... sonaba escandalosamente. Aqui en el edificio se les ocurrió cambiar el sistema. Ahora suena en el telefono y cuando suena se me va el internet, aparte es un codigo raro para cada apartamento... yo vivo en el apart 91 y el código es 34 (hay una lista en el tablero) pero la gente que va pal 34 siempre toca aquí...

I got Graham to help me with this one by holding the torch. I'd taken it yesterday but the ISO was way too high.
Oddly the light was totally different with the torch shining on it.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
Construite en 1921, cette centrale thermique d'Electrabel (originalement Intercom) située en région wallonne produisait d’énormes quantités d’énergie à partir de charbon. Responsable de 10% des émissions de CO2 de Belgique à elle-seule, l’usine a été fermée définitivement en 2007. Étendue sur une dizaine d'hectares, cette centrale est notamment formée d'un bâtiment principal et d'une tour de refroidissement, auxquels se rajoutent des bâtiments administratifs et une annexe munie d'une turbine de secours construits dans les années 60. Aujourd'hui la propriété de la société WANTY, cette centrale et surtout sa tour de refroidissement sont la proie d'urbexeurs venant du monde entier.
“Seedy - looking and bearded, Michael J. Vaccaro and Haydon Y. Grubbs Thursday emerged grinning from the confines of the tiny “moon rover” after 18 cramped days.
A moment before a Honeywell engineer had clicked on the intercom and told them, “Congratulations, it’s been a very successful test. You can egress now.”
“Roger, that’s the best news I’ve heard in 18 days,” shot back Grubbs.
Both of the NASA scientist - engineers were flabbergasted to find their boss, Dr. Wernher von Braun, and their wives waiting to greet them as they stepped out.”
Dr. von Braun, partially obscured by Mr. Vaccaro’s head (on the right), can be seen in the background.
Who knew? Did you? I didn’t!
Speaking of Lyn Grubbs - what a full wonderful life:

The following are pertinent extracts from an interim technical report entitled “MAN SYSTEM CRITERIA FOR EXTRATERRESTRIAL ROVING VEHICLES, Phase IB—The LUNEX II Simulation”:
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Mssrs. Haydon Y. Grubbs and Michael J. Vaccaro of the Systems Engineering Branch, Propulsion and Vehicle Engineering Laboratory, Marshall Space Flight Center, NASA, served as subjects during the experiment described herein. The pressure suits used during the experiments were provided by the Crew Systems Division, Manned Spacecraft Center, NASA. The cooperation and close support of these two centers was extremely helpful in the planning and conduct of the study…
ABSTRACT
An 18-day lunar surface mission was simulated under laboratory conditions with two NASA engineers as test subjects. The purpose of the simulation was to validate a minimum-volume cabin design for a lunar roving vehicle. The cabin contained a free volume of 3.26 cubic meters (i15. 3 cubic feet) in the main living space and 36 cubic meters (48 cubic feet) in the airlock. The cabin had a maximum floor-to-ceiling height of 166.0 centimeters (65.4 inches). The cabin was evaluated with subjects performing representative scientific and mission-oriented tasks in accordance with crew mission timelines developed in connection with this study. A 16-hour on and 8-hour off work-rest schedule was used. Subjects were given a 3000-calorie per day diet provided in four meals per day.
The subjects were evaluated by performance and physiological measures. Driving, monitoring, navigation, sample measurement and audio balancing tasks were performed. Selected geophysical tasks requiring simple but realistic measures contributed to simulation realism. Subjects' maximum oxygen capacity and the associated heart and respiratory rates were obtained before and immediately after the simulation by measuring oxygen consumption during graded treadmill runs. By this means, each subject was physiologically calibrated and pre- and post-simulation physical fitness evaluated. Throughout the simulation heart and respiratory rates were also taken continuously via a biotelemetry system.
Water balance and urine analyses were performed. Selected simulated emergencies were performed to evaluate the interaction of the subjects in pressurized state-of-the-art Apollo suits with the vehicle interior volumes and workspace layout. Subjects performed daily extravehicular activities while wearing inflated pressure suits. Representative physiological stresses were obtained during extravehicular activities by performing walks up to 4.15 kilometers per hour (2.6 miles per hour) on a treadmill while wearing inflated pressure suits. All simulated tasks were performed at 1 atmosphere pressure. The performance data was analyzed by simple statistics, daily means and standard deviations being calculated by computer for each principal task. Graphical analysis was used to evaluate trends or irregularities in the task data.
No adverse trends or marked irregularities were noted in the performance data of either subject throughout the 18-day simulation. Both subjects maintained satisfactory performance levels and physical condition throughout the simulation with no adverse effects attributable to the extended period of living and working in the vehicle simulator being observed.”

SS Edmund Fitzgerald
Here is just a snippet from Wikipedia:
SS Edmund Fitzgerald was an American Great Lakes freighter that sank in a Lake Superior storm on November 10, 1975, with the loss of the entire crew of 29. When launched on June 7, 1958, she was the largest ship on North America's Great Lakes, and she remains the largest to have sunk there.
For 17 years, Fitzgerald carried taconite iron ore from mines near Duluth, Minnesota, to iron works in Detroit,Toledo, and other Great Lakes ports. As a workhorse, she set seasonal haul records six times, often breaking her own previous record.
Captain Peter Pulcer was known for piping music day or night over the ship's intercom while passing through the St. Clair and Detroit Rivers (between Lakes Huron and Erie), and entertaining spectators at the Soo Locks (between Lakes Superior and Huron) with a running commentary about the ship.[5]Her size, record-breaking performance, and "DJ captain" endeared Fitzgerald to boat watchers.
Carrying a full cargo of ore pellets with Captain Ernest M. McSorley in command, she embarked on her ill-fated voyage from Superior, Wisconsin, near Duluth, on the afternoon of November 9, 1975. En route to a steel mill near Detroit, Fitzgerald joined a second freighter, SS Arthur M. Anderson. By the next day, the two ships were caught in a severe storm on Lake Superior, with near hurricane-force winds and waves up to 35 feet (11 m) high.
Shortly after 7:10 p.m., Fitzgerald suddenly sank in Canadian (Ontario) waters 530 feet (160 m) deep, about 17 miles (15 nautical miles; 27 kilometers) from Whitefish Bay near the twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario—a distance Fitzgerald could have covered in just over an hour at her top speed. Although Fitzgerald had reported being in difficulty earlier, no distress signals were sent before she sank; Captain McSorley's last message to Anderson said, "We are holding our own."
Her crew of 29 perished, and no bodies were recovered. The exact cause of the sinking remains unknown, though many books, studies, and expeditions have examined it. Fitzgerald may have been swamped, suffered structural failure or topside damage, been shoaled, or suffered from a combination of these.
The disaster is one of the best-known in the history of Great Lakes shipping. Gordon Lightfoot made it the subject of his 1976 hit song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" after reading an article, "The Cruelest Month", in the November 24, 1975, issue of Newsweek. The sinking led to changes in Great Lakes shipping regulations and practices that included mandatory survival suits, depth finders, positioning systems, increased free board, and more frequent inspection of vessels.

Fredricks: (Intercom) "It's not enough to simply show humility. We will continue to push our limits and demonstrate our ability to adapt to new challenges and new horizons. When this Galactic Alliance is forged, it will be the dawn of a new day for us all. So please, bear with me in this lengthy address. For now, as the only representatives of the Federation, I expect each and every one of you to give me your all, and I promise the same in return."
Shi'fah: "I hope you don't mind my dropping in. The red outfit suits you. Congratulations."
Frankie: "Thanks Princey. I'm just doing a little light maintenance on my gear what can I do you for?"
Shi'fah: "Interesting speech the Captain's giving. He's quite the visionary."
Frankie: Fredricks is a good guy and will be a great Captain. I mean hey, you guys got your moon base right? Seems like the universe is pretty square."
Shi'fah: "The universe may be square Frankie, but Blacktron has not forgotten what is due. I brought you a little gift, you know, in the name of peace. Enjoy."
I remember back in kindergarden, we had show and tell. This was back in 2000, when pokemon was coming out and was all the rage. Richard Song was a guy in my class who I shared a locker with. He presented thursdays and I on fridays. One thursday, he brought his pokemon deck to share with the class. Although it was pretty sweet, I still knew I had a better deck, with more holographic cards and more rarities.
and then it came on.
Mr. Kuligowski, our principal, came over the intercom. "Pardon the interruption, but Pokemon Cards and trading cards of any sort should not be brought to school. Please refrain from bringing them."
I was crushed. My teacher, Mrs. Sadkin, told Richard to finish up his presentation and put his deck back in his locker.
I was a day away from sharing my collection.
This motorized and revolving 3-sector turnstile offers 2 way access control in a high traffic flow in a revolving door look and feel. An alarm can be triggered if more than one person is attempting to enter at the same time ("tailgating" in the same turnstile sector) or a person does not scan or their employee badge or fingerprint to enter.
Free exit is standard but access control can also be used for exiting as well.
This revolving turnstile is either for outdoors leading into a building (sealed for protection against rain and snow) or for an indoor installation.
Glass is 11/12 mm laminated glass for turnstile wings and sides, but thicker glass can be requested.
Only-One Person
Sensors in the ceiling of the revolving door’s entry sector, in conjunction with additional software, detect if one or more people are present in that turnstile sector and the turnstile stops and reverses so the person can correct the problem.
This motorized revolving turnstile can be integrated with any card or biometric system to operate the turnstile. The scan can be made outside or inside the turnstile depending on the placement and style of reader.
Security checks can be required for building access yet with a high flow capacity and a minimalist, attractive design.
