To support its commitment to going green, Moran Logistics has placed an order with Keltruck for 15 Scania compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles, with delivery throughout 2023. This adds to Moran’s first order of two CNG vehicles from Keltruck, which went on the road in 2021.
Moran decided to purchase CNG vehicles for its Lidl contracts, as Lidl is encouraging its hauliers to use more environmentally-friendly fuel alternatives. The vehicles were initially purchased as a trial, but due to excellent driver feedback Moran has now placed this new larger order. Due to their specialist requirements, Moran has trusted Keltruck to maintain both gas vehicles at its Willenhall location, on a Scania three-year Repair & Maintenance package.
“The CNG vehicles are suited to the work we do with Lidl, based on the products we deliver, and the fuel infrastructure for filling up near Lidl locations is not an issue,” said Dean Roberts, General Manager at Moran Logistics.
“We have a long-standing relationship with Scania, but still underwent a selection process to ensure we partnered with who we saw as the most suitable for our needs whilst supporting us to meet our sustainability target,” said Dean. “This was supported by listening to recommendations from Lidl, as to how CNG fits in with both their roadmap and ours for using renewable energy.”
The CNG vehicles are solely used for refrigerated transport and have Ecogen fridges supplied by Hultsteins, a Swedish and British manufacturer specialising in diesel-free transport refrigeration.
Ecogen is a truck-powered hydraulic generator powered via the engine drive PTO. When combined with a traditional transport refrigeration unit, the system becomes a clean (hybrid), electric-powered refrigeration unit.
“More customers are looking for their logistics partners to demonstrate that they are taking responsibility for the elements under their control within the supply chain,” said Dean. “At Moran Logistics we are committed to look for efficiencies throughout our entire operation, to help reduce our carbon footprint, whilst maintaining the highest delivery standards. Efficient, renewable energy vehicles support this green policy.”
Keltruck Account Manager Calum Crooks, who took the order for these vehicles, commented: "Scania offers the widest range of alternatively-fuelled vehicles on the market today, and I had the pleasure of working with Moran Logistics to help provide this environmentally-friendly fuel alternative for their business."
The two gas vehicles – Scania G cabs, normal roof (G20N), 13l 410bhp, 4x2 CNG vehicles – are part of a range of vehicles and developments from Scania that are driving the shift to a sustainable transport system. Moran has also invested in driver comforts, including a leather steering wheel, premium driver seat, and premium seven-inch radio.
“The gas truck is much quieter compared to a diesel truck, the ride is smoother and more comfortable from a driver’s point of view, and there is an extra bonus that the interior looks nicer and is easy to handle and drive,” said Maxine Maltby, Operations Manager at Moran Logistics. “One of our drivers who has previously driven a LNG truck also mentioned that refuelling is easier with the CNG vehicle, as the process is straightforward and quick.”
Established in 2006, Moran Logistics is an expert in multi-temperature controlled transport and warehousing, handling 16,000 deliveries per week. Its operating philosophy is founded on maintaining the highest level of quality service in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible. See moranlogistics.co.uk.

These remaining Concrete Plinths with their Holdfasts once supported the 350ft Transmitter Towers used on the Experimental Chain Home Radar Station.
During World War One the grounds and stables of Bawdsey Manor were requisitioned by the Devonshire Regiment and having been returned to the Quilter family after the War the Bawdsey Manor Estate was selected as the site for a new Research Station for the development of 'Radio Direction Finding' in 1935. The Treasury allocating one million pounds for the continuation of the research started at Orfordness. The Manor, estate buildings and 168 acres of land were sold to the Air Ministry in 1936 and Robert Watson Watt was appointed as Superintendent. In January 1937 the RAF’s Radio Direction Finding (RDF) Training School was established there and the first Chain Home Radar Station was developed on the site, coming on line in May 1937. In August a filter room was established to process data from two other recently opened Chain Home Stations, the tracking information obtained being used for the deployment of Fighter Aircraft. The Station was fully operational by the 24th of September 1937 providing long range early warning for the southern North Sea and the Channel approaches, as well as Radar coverage for Coastal Convoys. As well as research for the Air Ministry, a War Department (Army) Team was working on the development of Gun-Laying Radar that would enable Anti-Aircraft Guns to fire accurately with poor visibility. By 1939 acceptable Gun-Ranging Equipment was in service with an accuracy of 25 yards at a range of 10 miles.
Another important area of research was the development of an Identification, Friend or Foe (IFF) System allowing friendly Aircraft to be differentiated from hostile planes. As a result of this research, Aircraft were fitted with aerials incorporating motor-driven tuners that caused the reflected signal received by Ground Radar Stations to vary in amplitude. Later models employed an electronic unit that detected the presence of 'Friendly Radar' and then transmitted a coded signal causing the Ground Radar display to indicate a Friendly Aircraft. By Easter 1939 15 Chain Home Stations were available for use around the coast and Chain Home went into a 24 hour Watch System. On the outbreak of World War Two the Research Station staff were relocated to dispersed locations around the country. Bawdsey continued in the forefront of the expansion of the Radar Network with an AMES Type 2 Chain Home Low on a 200ft platform on the southern (No.4 of 4) Transmitter Tower. (Each Tower was 350ft high) This was able to detect Low Flying Aircraft and Coastal Shipping but not Small Vessels or Low Flying Aircraft just above sea level.
Towards the end of 1941 Coastal Defence Radar (Army CD Mk IV) was established at Bawdsey, this installation was taken over by the RAF on the 7th of December 1942 making RAF Bawdsey the only site in the UK with three types of Radar (CH, CHL and CD) in operation. By August 1943 Coastal Defence was changed to an AMES Type 55 Chain Home Extra Low (CHEL) again this was mounted on a 200ft platform on the northern (No.1) Transmitter Tower. In September 1944 RAF Bawdsey began monitoring the launch of V2 Rockets using specially developed Chain Home Receivers codenamed ‘Oswald’. Although there was no defence against the V2 Rocket once it had been launched Oswald was able to provide Bomber Command with the location of the Launch Sites which could then be attacked. Other CH Stations equipped with Oswald were RAF Stoke Holy Cross, RAF High Street, RAF Great Bromley, RAF Dunkirk & RAF Swingate. The run-down of Radar Stations started before the end of the War from a peak of 194 Stations in 1944 with only 36 remaining by 1947 and only 29 of those were manned at full readiness. RAF Bawdsey is listed as being operational with both CH and CHEL in 1948.
In 1950 the Station was chosen to participate in the ROTOR Programme which involved the construction of a new Underground Operations Room on a new 21 acre site on the north side of the Bawdsey Manor Estate, this was planned to be operational by January 1952 as part of the ROTOR Plan Stage 1. Towards the end of 1953, the Chain Home Equipment was taken out of service and placed in a state of ‘Care and Maintenance’ and the Chain Home Low array was removed from the southern Transmitter Tower.
For the later history of Bawdsey Manor as fighter control school see RAF Bawdsey GCI Rotor Radar Station. Today Bawdsey Manor is occupied by Alexanders International School, a residential language school. Many of the RAF Buildings have now been demolished but the Transmitter and Receiver Block, two buried reserves and a number of other buildings from all the major phases of the site still survive.
During World War Two RAF Bawdsey was identified as a potential target and in September 1939 was protected by three 40mm Bofors Guns and two .303 Lewis Anti-Aircraft Guns. With an increased fear of a German invasion, these Defences were supplement in 1940 by Slit Trenches, Sandbag Gun Emplacements, a concrete Gun Post and at least ten Type-24 Pillboxes, nine of these are still extant. There were several attacks on the Station during 1940 which did little damage with no casualties and on the 18th of October 1940 Anti-Aircraft Gunners shot down a German bomber. Sporadic attacks continued over the following three years with some loss of life, the last Bombing Raid near Bawdsey was on the 30th of June 1944. A V1 Rocket crashed on the beach on the 21st of September 1944 and a V2 Rocket detonated over the sea on the 9th of October.
194th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion conducts
convoy live-fire at Story Range, Republic of Korea.

IMCOM-Korea Public Affairs
PANMUNJOM - With weapons at the ready, members of 194th Combat
Sustainment Support Battalion set out at dawn to conduct convoy
live-fire training here, March 25.
The fast-paced exercise exposed Soldiers to many of the real-world
perils found on today's asymmetric battlefield, culminating in a series
of drills designed to hone their skills in reacting to road-side bombs
and enemy small-arms fire.
"These Soldiers have been training for the past six months to prepare
for this day and their hard work is evident in the outstanding
performance I've seen throughout the battalion," said Command Sgt. Maj.
Nichelle S. Fails.
At times gritty and intense, the Soldiers worked in teams to zero in on
enemy targets with their rifles and machine guns.
"This scenario is interesting and very realistic," said Pvt. Jiwoo Kim,
a KATUSA assigned to the battalion.
Pvt. Dylan Florres, a battalion mechanic and one of the day's enemy
combatant role-players, sees the training as realistic and a good way to
build unit cohesion. "What we are doing is basically helping Soldiers
learn how to train safely and work as a team," he said.
"Everybody is highly motivated and ready to fight," said Chief Warrant
Officer 4 Joseph Williams, HHC, 194th Combat Support Sustainment
Battalion, safety officer. "Taking care of our Soldiers is very
important, we don't want any injuries. That's why we do risk assessments
and go over all of the details to make this a very safe, yet realistic,
training environment."
Master Sgt. Kenneth Ashley, the day's pyrotechnics NCO, described the
training as important in building teamwork within the battalion. "Here
in Korea and in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, we need to make sure
our Soldiers know how to react under fire and to ensure they are
prepared for anything the enemy throws at them."

The rotating wafer support maintains flatness and position of 4", 6", 8", 10", 12", and 13.625" diameter wafers in order to achieve contamination-free contact angle readings while preserving flatness. Each wafer support is hand lapped to a high-tolerance. The support incorporates a rotating stage plate which is graduated in 1° increments with displacement holes for creating the appropriate suction. The wafer support mounts directly to the leveling stage of the Contact Angle Goniometer. Model 400 supports and includes an 8" wafer support (and other sizes can be added). Models 190, 200, 250, and 290 support the 4" wafer support only. Larger supports may require an upgrade kit which will extend the focal length of the camera and extend the microsyringe fixture. We offer kits which include all of the necessary parts.
Premier Jason Kenney, Energy Minister Sonya Savage, and Environment Minister Jason Nixon announced, in Edmonton on Friday, April 24, 2020, actions to support the economy and the energy sector.
A new program will provide the energy industry with access to up to $1 billion, creating jobs to immediately get Albertans back to work.
The Site Rehabilitation Program – mainly funded by the federal government’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan – will provide grants to oilfield service contractors to perform well, pipeline, and oil and gas site reclamation work. Starting now, the program is expected to create about 5,300 direct jobs and lead to the cleanup of thousands of sites.
This work will be done in Alberta, putting Albertans back to work. The program will also provide additional economic benefits, such as indirect employment, helping support various sectors of Alberta’s economy – including restaurant and hotel workers, and many other businesses – as it begins to reopen and recover after the effects of COVID-19.

Indonesia is supporting Myanmar in the preparation stage for entering negotiation with European Union (EU) on Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade - Voluntary Partnership Agreement (FLEGT-VPA). As Indonesia will be the first country in the world to attain FLEGT license, Indonesia shared its experience with Myanmar on the development of Sistem Verifikasi Legalitas Kayu (SVLK) or Indonesian Timber Legality Assurance System (TLAS), the core of the FLEGT-VPA negotiation between Indonesia and EU. During the exchange program from 9-10 August, 2016, in Yangon, Myanmar, the Indonesia delegation suggested that Myanmar needs to focus on critical factors of FLEGT-VPA that eventually for the purpose of transparency and inclusiveness. Meanwhile, Myanmar realized that the current TLAS system needs significant improvement, especially on multi stakeholder engagement. In order to get more inputs on TLAS development, Myanmar delegation will visit Indonesia from 5-10 September, including field trip to several small, medium and large furniture industries and community forestry certified by SVLK in Jepara, Boyolali, Yogyakarta.

This is a photograph from both of the races in the 8th annual Longwood Village 10KM and 5KM Road Races and Fun Runs which were held in Longwood Village, Longwood, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 22nd October 2017 at 11:00. The races are held annually to support the development of the local GAA club while also supporting local charities. The race has support from Trim AC which sees the race have full AAI premit status. These races have grown steadily over the years and this year almost 400 participants to part in the two races. This is an impressive statistic given that a very large number of local runners will be preparing for the Dublin City marathon 7 days from now. However both races provide marathon runners and all other runners, joggers and walkers with an ideal opportunity to race on a very fair course in a beautiful rural setting. Barry Clarke of Longwood GAA and Trim AC and his very large group of volunteers deserve the highest of praise for the very high standard of organisation immediately apparent to anyone taking part in the race. Overall the whole day was a great success with the hard work put in by the organising committee ensuring that participants enjoyed their race experience. Both routes were accurately measured, kilometer points clearly marked, junctions well stewarded, and electronic timing provided. The event provided many local runners, joggers, fun runners and walkers with a local event to support whilst at the same time providing runners preparing for events such as the Dublin marathon with an opportunity to race a short, fast, distance in the lead up to marathon day. The GAA club provided excellent stewarding and traffic management all around the course. The race had a professional feel to it and it is sure to grow next year given the very positive feedback from many of the participants today. The weather in the week leading up to the race was hardly ideal with both Storm Ophelia and Storm Brian bringing windy and rainy conditions to Ireland all week. The weather for race day was more suitable for running. Dry, with a fresh breeze, the weather remained dry for both races with the sun making an appearance also.
We have an extensive set of photographs from all of the races today in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157661720601468

Longwood is a small village in South East Co. Meath and is close to the town of Enfield with access to the M4 Motorway.
5KM Course: The 5KM started in Longwood village. Runners then took a left turn in the Village down St. Oliver's Road. This straight section of road brings runners to a left turn onto a very well maintained boreen road for less than one kilometer. The race then emerges and joins with the 10KM at Stoneyford where the runners take a left and then another left before arriving back at the finish line in Longwood GAA club. Overall this is a very fast and flat 5KM with no hills to speak of.
10KM Course: The 10KM event begins in Longwood Village outside Dargan's Pub and proceeds westward out of the village. There are some interesting points along this part of the course. At the 2KM point the runners will run under the double bridges - an aquaduct for the Royal Canal and a bridge carrying the Dublin Sligo Railway line. The race then enters county Kildare just before the 3km and after taking a right turn at the four-cross roads known locally as Lally's Cross it returns to County Meath on top of the River Boyne Bridge (Ashfield Bridge) which forms the county boundary. The race follows a straight road for the next 2KM until runners encounter Blackshade bridge which is the toughest climb on the route. As a point of interest Blackshade bridge brings runners back over the Royal Canal and the Railway line. The race then crosses the River Boyne again at Stoneyford before taking a right which will bring runners on a testing two kilometer stretch with some short hills. The 10KM course then joins with the 5Km course for the final 1.5KM back to Longwood GAA club for the finish.

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

With the aim of supporting families fleeing the war in Ukraine, our library has proposed a cooperation between the Nova Hvylja Association and the book’s publisher Móra Publishing House. Together, we published eight stories from Csenge Zalka Virág’s award-winning storybook to provide them to 1,500 Ukrainian refugee families. The collection of folk tales in Ukrainian entitled Ribizli a világ végén [Ribizli at the End of the World], was published in a new Ukrainian edition, with expanded content and renewed illustrations more in line with Ukrainian traditions.
Ukrainian children and their companions took part in the extraordinary book launch upon the courtesy of the association, and the organisers entertained them with fairy tale reading, folk songs and circus performances. Among others, Hungarian actress Nelli Szűcs, Jászai Mari Prize winner, a worthy and distinguished artist of the National Theatre in Budapest, read a story from the book in Ukrainian to the audience.
At the event, Dávid Rózsa, Director General of the NSZL, Liliana Grexa, President of the Association, and Zoltán Fürjes, State Secretariat for Church, Civil Society and Nationality Affairs of the Prime Minister’s Office welcomed the guests. Dávid Rózsa emphasized that the cooperation and support for the good cause came quickly from the participants of the edition. Zoltán Fürjes’ speech focused on fairy tales, ‘the ancient shared tradition that must be rediscovered over and over again’ and ‘which can enchant us and take us out of reality’. The president of the association expressed the hope that the book will remain a lasting memory of Hungary for Ukrainian children.
