Älteste Verkehrsampel der Welt?
Der sogenannte „Verkehrsturm“ prägte ab 1924 das Bild des Platzes. Aufgrund des großen Verkehrsaufkommens ließ ihn die Berliner Stadtverwaltung 1924 in dessen Mitte mit der ersten Verkehrsampel Deutschlands aufstellen, deren drei Lichter noch horizontal und nicht, wie heute üblich, vertikal angeordnet waren. Mit dem Bau der unterirdischen verlaufenden S-Bahn endete die Zeit des Verkehrsturms, der in der Nacht vom 1. zum 2. Oktober 1937 demontiert wurde.

Traffic lights:
Although a contraption at Stephansplatz in Hamburg is now thought to have predated them by two years, it has often been stated that the first traffic lights in Continental Europe were erected at Potsdamer Platz on 20 October 1924, in an attempt to control the sheer volume of traffic passing through. This traffic had grown to extraordinary levels. Even in 1900, more than 100,000 people, 20,000 cars, horse-drawn vehicles and handcarts, plus many thousands of bicycles, passed through the platz daily. By the 1920s the number of cars had soared to 60,000. The trams added greatly to this. The first four lines had appeared in 1880, rising to 13 by 1897, all horse-drawn, but after electrification between 1898 and 1902 the number of lines had soared to 35 by 1908 and ultimately reached 40, carrying between them 600 trams every hour, day and night. Services were run by a large number of companies, but in 1929 all these were unified into the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (Berlin Transport Services) company, which has operated Berlin’s trams ever since.
Up to 11 policemen at a time had tried to control all this traffic, many of them standing on small wooden platforms positioned in key locations around the platz, but with varying success. The traffic lights, again from Siemens, were mounted on a five-sided 8.5 m high tower designed by Jean Kramer, shipped over from the United States, and actually modelled on a similar one erected on Fifth Avenue in New York in 1922, although towers like this had been a feature of the Big Apple since 1918. A solitary policeman sat in a small cabin at the top of the tower and switched the lights around manually, until they were eventually automated in 1926. Yet some officers still remained on the ground in case people did not pay any attention to the lights. The tower remained until c.1936, when it was removed to allow for excavations for the new S-Bahn line (on 26 September 1997, a replica of the tower was erected, just for show, close to its original location by Siemens, to celebrate the company's 150th anniversary. The replica was moved again on 29 September 2000, to the place where it stands today).

I purchased this top of the line automated welding helmet for work but it wasn't practical for supervising a crew that welds for you. The lens cracked less than 6 months after purchasing it and Optrel replaced the lens for free. Paid $269 and sold it on Ebay for $175.00.

This is the interior dome of the Islamic mosque (or something) near Xanthi, Greece. The masonry work is really amazing.
Sorry for the slightly blurry picture here. The hand held shot was hard to pull off (nearly a 1 second exposure).
See this picture for a view of the exterior of the building.

Four New Zealand ships were chosen for 2009 Automated Mutual-Assistance Vessel Rescue (AMVER) awards for active participation: the Kakariki, the Tore the Forum Samoa II, the Tangaroa. The awards program recognizes those vessels, which regularly participate in the AMVER system. AMVER is an international program, operated by the U.S. Coast Guard, to assist the safety of vessels on the high seas. Merchant vessels of all nations are encouraged to send their sail plans, including departure message, periodic position reports, and arrival message, to the Coast Guard's AMVER Center. The information is processed in a computer database that maintains a plot of the positions of these ships throughout their voyages. Rescue authorities around the world can then obtain, through U.S. Coast Guard Rescue Coordination Centers, a list of participating ships in the vicinity of an emergency so that assistance can be sought from vessels nearby. For 51 years, AMVER has been effective in arranging emergency assistance to those who need it on the high seas.
In 2009, AMVER merchant ship responses resulted in 237 lives saved and 18 lives assisted (for medical attention, evacuation,
communications, food/fuel/supplies, etc). AMVER ships conducted 308 searches at sea to verify electronic distress alerts, thus preserving
limited rescue assets for genuine emergencies. Additional information on the AMVER program, including country award statistics,
is available at www.AMVER.com, or the AMVER blog at www.AMVERuscg.blogspot.com.

A fleet of automated oil suckers

In just under a week, it will be the anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. With the dubious honor of being responsible for the largest accidental oil spill in history, BP and then CEO Tony Hayward were demonized at every opportunity. Yet, despite the presence of a prominent villain, there was no equally prominent hero. A year later, we may have found a hero in Cesar Harada, as he tackles the task of increasing the efficiency and automation of oil spill clean up.
The current methods for handling oil slicks on the ocean surface requires ships that are costly to operate in terms of both staff and energy. Despite all that effort, there is very little payoff. An estimated 3% of the BP oil spill was skimmed from the ocean, while nearly 25% was either incorporated into sea water or evaporated into the atmosphere. Inspired by these startling statistics, Cesar Harada founded the Protei Project to start looking for alternative methods for cleaning up Deepwater Horizon’s aftermath.
Given the risks involved in piloting the oil skimmers, as well as the health risks the staff runs into in constant exposure with the oil, Protei instead plans to use a fleet of autonomous vehicles. These vehicles are modified sailboats, outfitted with a long tail made up of material capable of absorbing up to twenty times their own weight in oil. While the tail isn’t different than the a conventional oil boom, the construction and engineering of the sailboat are the key points towards increased oil collection.
The oil spill was by no means a stationary creature. In just over a month, the oil spread from its drilling point in the Macondo Prospect in the Gulf of Mexico to the US coastline. This spread was mediated by the wind and ocean currents. The Protei fleet would automatically sense the direction of the wind and trace long stroking paths in the wind’s wake. Adding some sensors and an oil boom to a conventional sailboat would not suffice, however. The drag involved with the long tail made conventionally designed boats increasingly slow and difficult to steer. Instead, the engineers worked on creating an articulated sailboat, as if it were made up of a series of rudders rather than a single steering element. Essentially made from inflatable parts, it is light weight and leaves a small footprint in the water in comparison to the large oil skimmers currently used.
Perhaps the most striking thing about Protei is its can-do attitude. Videos documenting its progress through the various iterations show its not a project investors are tossing money at with wild abandon. The members make do with limited materials and their creativity to achieve their goal. In that same spirit, they encourage other people to take advantage of their progress by making the project open source. Though it’s specifically designed for oil collection, Cesar encourages others to adopt the technology for their own causes.

Automated Penetration testing is the process of using specialized tools to conduct penetration tests on web applications, networks, and computer systems. These tools can automate many tasks that would otherwise be performed manually by a pentester.
The ramé-hart Automated Dispensing System (p/n 100-22) is a software-driven tool and control pump for creating single drops or dynamic drops such as required by advancing and receding and other dynamic studies. This hydraulic system uses disposable tips for multiple liquid studies and quick changes from one liquid to another. The system includes software, serial cable, stage adapters, one 250uL syringe (other sizes optionally available), and a set of disposable tips. The control software is embedded in both versions of the DROPimage software (Standard and Advanced) and is also available (stand alone) when used with non-ramé-hart products.
