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.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Air_Force_Marine_Branch
Initial estimates saw a requirement for ten of these vessels, capable of sustaining the Marine Branch's Long Range commitment for the forseeable future. The lead vessel was built by Brooke Marine at Lowestoft and launched on 11th May 1967 under a design and build contract. Her naming ceremony was carried out on 2nd August 1967 and she arrived at Mount Batten on 7th August 1967 bearing her name HMAFV SEAL.
Posted to 1105 MCU Portrush, she ably demonstrated her capabilities on the weapon ranges working with both the RAF and RN. Torpedo recovery required a new approach from that of running alongside and either parbuckling, or hoisting the weapons aboard using the winch and derrick. These steel craft used a 'Gemini' to tow the torpedo to the launch, the stern ramp would be lowered and the weapon recovered by means of rails and recovery winch. The weapons flat could hold a total of nine short and four long torpedoes. In 1986 SEAL undertook the longest ever passage by an RAF launch, a total of 12,500 miles steamed over a 101 day period, when she went to the AUTEC range in the Bahamas.
This success lead eventually to an order of a further two vessels, 5001 - SEAGULL and 5002 - SEA OTTER, being awarded to Fairmile Construction of Berwick on Tweed on the 8th April 1968. They were launched in June and December 1970. They were allotted to Mount Batten and Portrush until the latter unit closed in March 1971, when SEAL moved to Alness, where she operated out of Invergordon. Over the ensuing years they carried out a variety of tasks around the UK and further afield, including NATO exercises, SUBSUNK, training, Channel Surveillance, HM Customs work, and escort to the Royal Yacht. These were all in addition to their normal weapons recovery tasks, periodic slippings, for routine maintenance (and damage repair)
Although they proved to be both excellent sea boats and ideally suited for their work, no further vessels were ordered. With the forthcoming closure of the Marine Branch, HMAFV SEA OTTER was handed over to the RN and re-named HMS REDPOLE carrying the pennant of P.259. After modifications she operated as a patrol vessel in Northern Irish water until she was sold out of service on 28th February 1996.
In 1986 when the Branch closed, SEAL and SEAGULL were operated by the new civilian contractors James Fisher & Sonas AFVs (Air Force Vessels) still bearing their RAF colour scheme. This was changed to the Black and Buff scheme in 1991 when control passed to DMS(N) after the DDMC was disbanded. Later again they reverted back to their original RAF colours minus the roundel, and had the designation of ASC (Air Support Craft). Their last commercial operators were VT (Vosper Thornycroft) Marine and when they lost the contract to Smit Towing an early 2003, the two old girls were sold off and replaced by new purpose built civilian craft.

The OPCW observes the annual Day of Remembrance for all Victims of Chemical Warfare on 30 November 2021.
Location: Manthali Municipality, Ramechhap-Nepal
Building Typology: Load Bearing stone masonry in mud mortar
Supported by: Government of Nepal
House owner Name: Ram Bahadur Rokaya
Construction details:
•Three room cross wall provided
•Attic floor ht. is limited
•All horizontal band provided.
•Steel rod is provided as Vertical post
Stone in mud buildings are constructed using dressed or undressed stones available at the site with mud mortar. The structural walls are the main load-bearing component of the building. The walls are usually 450-650 mm. thick. Such thick walls are generally constructed in multiple wythes with the filler material (small pieces of stones) between the walls. The floor system is the flexible type of mud flooring on bamboo or timber joists. The roof system is also flexible type with CGI sheets or tiles over timber rafters.
Nepal suffered a massive loss of lives and property on Saturday 25 April 2015, when the devastating magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck Nepal. Subsequent aftershocks, including one of magnitude 7.3 near the Chinese border on 12 May, produced additional losses of life and property.
The earthquake triggered avalanches on Mount Everest and in the Langtang valley. Villages were flattened and people were made homeless across 31 districts, with 14 districts suffering the highest impact. Infrastructure was damaged throughout the earthquake zone. Historic neighborhoods and heritage sites were destroyed in the Kathmandu Valley.
As a result of the earthquake, 8,790 people died and more than 22,300 people were injured. Assessments showed that at least 498,852 private houses and 2,656 government buildings were destroyed. Another 256,697 private houses and 3,622 government buildings were partially damaged. In addition, 19,000 classrooms were destroyed and 11,000 damaged.
The earthquake affected manufacturing, production, and trade in agriculture as well as tourism and other areas of the service sector, thereby weakening the national economy. Economic growth fell in 2015 and has picked up slowly 2016. Once fully underway, reconstruction should contribute to economic growth in the coming years.
According to initial estimates arrived at during the Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA), NPR 669 billion would be required to reconstruct damaged properties and infrastructure and to support recovery in affected sectors of the economy.
The government was providing 300 hundred thousand grant for Private housing reconstruction & 100 hundred thousand grant for retrofitting of the private house damaged by earthquake

wikipedia: Tokyo Tower (東京タワー, Tōkyō-tawā) is a communications tower located in Shiba Park, Minato, Tokyo, Japan. The 332.6-meter-tall (1,091 ft) orange and white lattice tower is the tallest self-supporting steel structure in the world, the tallest artificial structure in Japan and the 11th tallest tower in the world.
Built in 1958, this Eiffel Tower-like structure supports an antenna that broadcasts television and radio signals for important Japanese media outlets such as NHK, TBS and Fuji TV. In recent years, the tower has also been instrumental in Japan's push to switch from an analog signal to digital signal.
The tower is constructed of steel, a third of which was from recycled World War II scrap steel. Despite being 8.6 meters taller than the Eiffel Tower (32.6 if the tower's TV antenna is included), Tokyo Tower only weighs about 4,000 tons, 3,300 tons less than the Eiffel Tower.

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

Well we hit Mukilteo beach today, hoping to spot some good wildlife shots during low tide. Well I didn't spot any good animals, probably due to the crowds, but over under the old fuel pier was these great lineup of supports. I really liked the white washing from the saltwater with the aged brown above that. It's also nice that this creates a false horizon.

Back in April 2017 we went to support our son Rob and his then girlfriend (now wife) Sophie down in Sussex. They were both running in the Brighton marathon for their chosen charities. Back in 1986/7 we lived in Seaford, in East Sussex so going back for the first time since then was an absolutely pleasure. We stayed in a lovely ‘above-the-garage’ conversion not too far from Lewes. A lovely couple had rented it out to us via Air-B&B and our room/bathroom/kitchenette was really wonderful. We ventured out to the lovely village of Alfriston (which was also the place that the Labour politician Denis Healey made his home) and we’d forgotten what a pretty village it was. The highlight was our lunch in one of the cafés, and also a visit to a fabulous bookshop called ‘Much Ado About Books’, a nice play on Shakespearian word! This album also contains pictures around Lewes town centre.The Photographs in this set are a nice reminder of a delightful weekend away from home giving support to Rob and Sophie.
