As background, this is a comparison of Noga Magnetic Base Indicator holders. The Noga model numbering system can be baffling, but basically the first three digits of the number give an indication of the maximum reach of the articulated arm (not including the indicator holder at the end). From smallest to largest they are MA (509mm), MG7 (276mm), MG6 (246mm), DG6 (211mm), NF6 (107mm), and LC6 (76mm). The other digits of the model number specify if it has a mag base, if the fine adjustment is on the head, on the base, or both, and whether the arm that attaches to the mag base is threaded metric or imperial, and if it holds 8mm dial indicators or ⅜” indicators. The type of indicator mount at the far end determines the final reach length and can vary by 20mm. Noga’s current indicator holder ends are the newer FA1500 type which are long, but very difficult to adjust and keep steady. On every Noga holder that I own, I have replaced the indictor holder with the older FA1300 units which are far more rigid and easier to set up and adjust.
Below is a photo of my collection of Noga holders showing their relative reach on an X-Roll sliding table. Front to back they are (with total reach in parenthesis) NF61003 (178mm), DG1033 (232mm), MG10533 (267.5mm), MG1033 (317mm), MG71003 (347.5mm), MA61003 (580mm).
Of all of these models, my most used and favorite is the MG10533 since it has fine adjustment on the base, the indicator holder does not swivel and is thus rigid and easy to set up, and the reach is sufficient for sliding table outside edge alignment checks.

Blytheville Air Force Base aka Eaker Air Force Base.
I think it is lost on most Americans that the first time a B-52 was used in actually live combat was in Vietnam and it was the only time a B-52 was lost to enemy fire.
Fifteen B-52s were lost during the 1972 Linebacker II Christmas bombings and three of those B-52s originated from the 97th Bombardment Wing assigned to Blytheville Air Force Base; B 52G 58-0201 "Charcoal 1" went down on the 18th, B 52G 58-0198 "Olive 1" and B 52G 58-0169 "Tan 3" were shot down on the 21st. Airmen from the 97th Bombardment Wing lost their lives and their photos appear on the lonely memorial at their abandoned base in Blytheville; Lt Col Keith R Heggen was in "Olive1", (now buried at Arlington Nat'l Cemetery) Lt Col Donald L Rissi, 1st LT Robert J Thomas and Msgt Walter L Ferguson were in "Charcoal 1" Major Bobby A Kirby, Capt Randall J Craddock, Capt George B Lockhart, Capt Ronald D Perry and 1st Lt Charles E Darr were in "Tan 3". These three 97th BW aircraft were stationed and flown out of Anderson AFB, Guam, as part of the 72nd Strategic Wing (Provisional).
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif — Officials from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District and 30th Space Wing broke ground Aug. 15 for a new education center here. The $14.2 million building will replace a 60-year-old facility that is used by more than 3,000 Airmen and their families.
Col. Nina Armagno, 30th Space Wing commander, said the center will have room for five college programs, 25 classrooms, a training and WAPS (Weighted Airman Promotion System) testing area, two computer labs and a 75-seat auditorium to meet the education goals of base Airmen.
“Team Vandenberg is thirsting for knowledge and this new, state-of-the-art facility is just what we need,” said Armagno. “This building will be more than bricks and mortar and glass that shall hold it together; it represents the Air Force’s commitment to providing the best services and facilities to the best Airmen the world has ever seen.”
The 38,000 square foot center is a design-build project awarded by the Corps to Teehee-Straub, a joint-venture team from Oceanside, Calif. Their 21st century design includes sustainable development and energy efficiencies, such as light pollution reduction and water use reduction.
Col. Mark Toy, Los Angeles District commander, said the Corps is proud to be part of the team at Vandenberg. His District has managed major construction at the base for more than fifty years, completing such projects as dormitories, a satellite operations facility and the recently opened LEED Gold child development center.
“We hope we can continue to build wonderful facilities for all of you,” said Toy. “This is a perfect example of a great partnership between the Army and the Air Force. So, in the spirit of that, I will say, ‘Go Army,’ ‘Go Air Force,’ ‘Beat Navy!’”

Achna (Greek: Άχνα; Turkish: Düzce) is an abandoned village in the Famagusta District of Cyprus. It is just north of the Buffer Zone and it is under the de facto control of Northern Cyprus. After the 1974 Turkish invasion, its displaced inhabitants built a new village nearby.
New village
The inhabitants of Achna built a provisional tent village in the Achna forest (Dasaki tis Achnas), some hundred meters away from their old village, and later started to build a new village, Dasaki Achnas, near the old location, within the confines of the Dhekelia Sovereign Base Area.
Dasaki Achnas' population in 2011 was 2,087.
Sports
Achna is known for its football club, Ethnikos Achna FC.

Summary - Metro Line C runs from the Pantano terminus through the south-eastern suburbs of Rome. This chapter reflects on the archaeological investigations carried out along via La Spezia and via Sannio, published as a series of preliminary reports. The evidence suggests that the banks of the ancient river course running through this area –tentatively identified with the aqua Crabra or one of its branches – were farmed from the third century BC. The river worked as a catalyst for local exploitation and imposing embankments to control its floods were built in the third century BC.

These allow us to indirectly reconstruct the original riverbed. Things started to change in the second half of the first century BC; the land use became diversified and the complexity of the landscape increased. This process continued until the construction of the Aurelian Walls, which effectively created an intra-mural and an extra-mural area. From the last quarter of the third century AD, land-use took on a more homogenous form, mainly characterised by agricultural and funerary use. The construction of the Aurelian Walls modified and, in places, substantially reduced the width of the riverbed.

2). ROMA - Roma, dagli scavi in via Sannio spunta un galoppatoio: ecco la villa imperiale. Il Messaggero / Video (10/05/2018).

Gli archeologi lo chiamano già il galoppatoio di via Sannio. Va immaginato come una scenografica pista dove godersi passeggiate a cavallo, riparate da un'elegante struttura porticata che si affacciava su ricchi giardini. Un gioiello architettonico che sotto l'imperatore Claudio (metà del I secolo d.C.) si estendeva per oltre sessanta metri - ma è ipotizzabile il doppio - sulle pendici del Celio, digradanti verso quello che diventerà il quartiere di San Giovanni. Il viaggio nel tempo in questo rione continua. Ancora una scoperta archeologica dai cantieri della Metro C. Siamo a via Sannio, nell'area a ridosso delle Mura Aureliane, dove è stato aperto un cantiere per realizzare un pozzo di areazione.

Ed è qui, ad oltre quindici metri di profondità che sta lavorando lo staff della Soprintendenza. L'annuncio dei nuovi ritrovamenti è stato dato in occasione dell'affollato incontro sul tema Novità per gli scavi della Metro C di Roma organizzato dal parco archeologico di Ostia Antica, voluto dalla direttrice Mariarosaria Barbera. «Si tratta di una bellissima struttura porticata destinata a galoppatoio, inteso come un luogo ameno dove andare a cavallo, fare attività fisica e godersi il tempo libero - spiega l'archeologa responsabile Rossella Rea - Aveva la parete di fondo completamente decorata con lastre di marmo e intonaci dipinti, mentre il pavimento non era rivestito». Prove che non lasciano dubbi all'archeologa su questa struttura larga nove metri e lunga oltre sessanta. Ma sono i muri del portico ad aver regalato la vera sorpresa: i legni. Restano le originarie tavole di legno utilizzate dagli operai romani per costruire le armature lignee che contenevano la gettata di calcestruzzo delle fondazioni. Decine di metri di assi disposti a fasce sovrapposte, orizzontali e verticali. «La quantità di tavole rinvenute è unica - dice la Rea - ci ha consentito per la prima volta di effettuare un'analisi estesa con risultati precisi sulla datazione dei legni e persino la provenienza. Il legno infatti risale al 40-50 d.C. è originario della quercia ed è stato portato a Roma dalle foreste dell'Alta Valle del Reno».

FONDALI MARINI
«La particolarità del terreno argilloso e umido dell'area interessata dal passaggio di flussi idrici sembra aver creato un ambiente simile ai fondali marini», racconta Nicoletta Saviane che ha seguito lo scavo. Ma c'è un altro elemento che attira l'attenzione degli studiosi: un perno di legno di oltre un metro infilato perpendicolarmente nel muro, ancora al suo posto dopo millenni. «Il galoppatoio faceva parte di una lussuosa villa che doveva svilupparsi a terrazzamenti, tra la sommità del Celio e il fosso dell'acqua Cabra che scorreva in basso». Per il momento non si hanno dati che ne attestino la proprietà. «Il grande portico prospettava su un giardino in cui sono state rinvenute le fosse di piantumazione - precisa la Rea - E in corrispondenza di ogni pilastro aveva piante rampicanti». Il portico dava le spalle alla collina del Laterano. Dalla parte verso il giardino aveva un lungo muro in opus reticulatum basso che fungeva da base del colonnato. Tra le curiosità, anche i resti ossei di un asinello. Soddisfatta del successo di pubblico dell'incontro, la stessa Barbera: «A dimostrazione di quanto interesse suscita il lavoro degli archeologi, in specie quando dialoga con lo sviluppo urbano».
