These are two 36" radius w/ easement curve templates that were laid out following the John Armstrong "stick" methodology. The only change I made was to bump the offset up to 1" with a total easement length of 30" (known as 'L'). The 36" is on the "inside" of the template and 38" on the outside. If needed, I can bump up the radius to 38" if conditions require.
I could have used one piece for the entire thing, but these 1/4" scraps I had in the garage were readily available. After laying everything out in pencil, I simply used a jigsaw and sanding block to do the rest.
Ensuring Sustainable Finance in Transition Economies
The EBRD/Institute of International Finance/National Bank of Poland will hold a one-day joint event on Banking and Capital Markets.
The event focused on the changing banks’ business models and their impact on SME financing, the evolving global financial architecture to support cross-border banking and how to grow reliable capital markets in transition economies. Speakers included banking and capital markets practitioners, market infrastructure experts, regulators and professional market associations.
Transition in Light is my second painting. This is my hope for change. After the sun set, the moon is rising. This is the natural painting. I applied the natural aspect in my painting too. This is my image of mountian, lake and clouds and lights. This Light of sun and moon and the light of stars can read symbolic too. This is the change of our inner being. We can see the calmness after the change and after the purification in our soul. The same calmness we can see in natural objects too. The lake seems so peace and the mountain seems so quite. We can see the rising of moon and shining in stars after the sun set. There is the Transition in Light.

At the end of the last bend, just before the apple tree, the track will transition from the wooden chests to a paved section. Will probably need to do some power drilling to fasten the track.

The Transition Report 2016-17 casts a spotlight on inequality and inclusion, explaining how a failure to deliver a fair distribution of the fruits of progress may lead to setbacks in political and economic development. It also explores the causes of inequality of opportunity and looks at how to strengthen financial inclusion.
Tracking the successes that have been achieved in post-communist societies, the report concludes that the “happiness gap” has finally closed with people on similar incomes in non-transition countries, but warns that not everyone has shared in this economic prosperity.
This latest annual analysis draws on a wide-ranging survey of people who have experienced transition first-hand.

The transitional years on the Southern Region (SR) Eastern Section, with ex-works Maunsell 'N' Class 2-6-0 31844, bearing an Exmouth Junction shed code plate (72A) on a proving diagram running through Ashford station in the early 1960s, soon after the Kent Coast electrification programme had been completed in June 1959. The 'N' class migrated from the SR Eastern section to work additionally on the Central and Western sections, and in their latter BR(S) days continued to excel on passenger and goods duties in the West Country. Withdrawals took place between 1962 and 1966, 31844 being taken out of service from Exmouth Junction shed in December 1963. Ashford locomotive workshops eventually closed on 16th June 1962, the last locomotive to be outshopped from Ashford being sister 'N' class-2-6-0 31400, on 9th June. A BR Sulzer Type 2 was running alongside into the station heading a parcels train from the Hastings line. The Southern Region had made a request to 'borrow' from the London Midland Region the first nine of the class that were rolling off the production line at Derby Works, prior to the delivery of their BRCW Type 3s (later Class 33), and the first seven, D5000-D5006, were allocated to Hither Green depot (73C) from January 1959. Following crew training, the Sulzers were put to work in the Ashford - Ramsgate - Dover - Faversham area and ultimately numbered fifteen. By January 1962, the SR was accepting its final deliveries of BRCW Type 3’s, and receiving the first of its electro-diesels and new DEMU’s for the Oxted line. These additions allowed for the gradual return of the loaned LMR Type 2’s, the majority visiting Eastleigh Works for overhaul prior to heading north.

(CHICAGO, Illinois - 19-26 August, 2011) Veterans wounded in current campaigns, (OEF, OIF, OND, Gulf War) and those retirees of previous wars, participated in a three-day United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and World Sports Chicago training camp followed by the subsequent inaugural Olympic style 2011 Valor Games Midwest in Chicago, Illinois. The confidence and empowerment events sponsored by the Veteran's Administration, World Sports Chicago, USA Paralympics and the Support All Veterans Equally (S.A.V.E) organization embraced the capabilities of participants who at first glance, because of percieved disabilities ranging from severe traumatic brain injuries, loss of limbs, wheelchair confinement and other debilitating ailments are thought to be limited, by introducing them to events such as track & field, archery, winter biathlon challenges, rowing and water activity, to name a few, and Warriors who, like themselves, were stricken ill or injured during active duty. Focusing on existing self-determinations and reinforcing the military's esprit de corps. Jeanette Thompson, a wheelchair athlete and paralympian who was introduced to the throwing events at a USOC Paralympic Military Sports Camp in Rhode Island in 2009 and made a dramatic showing at the 2011 IPC Athletics World Championships in Christchurch, New Zealand in January as a member of Team USA and placing first in several field events in 2010. She was also named 2010 Rookie of the Year in wheelchair basketball by the Augusta Bulldogs. Thompson said these events are an opportunity to be oneself without the misconception of limitations. "Since my injury the stigma associated with being (confined) to two-wheels has been fun to disprove," the gregarious retired Army non-commissioned officer explained. "Now (injured veterans) come together and feel the normalcy of being a team with commonalities, not restrictions, and look beyond societal restrictions and move forward to continue to proudly represent our country in other capacities."

Start of the Venus Transition seen from two different locations on the globe (Hawaii and Norway). This allows us to see the parallax effect, seen from Norway (left) Venus was already further over the Sun while it had only just entered when seen from Hawaii.
During the period of changeover from hook to automatic couplings (which lasted a couple of decades), this is how "hooks" and "autos" were coupled together. Initially, automatic coupled wagons were fitted with buffers and transition links.
A very effective, cheap and functional way to make the change! And so simple. One of the cleverest things Australian railways have done.
