- "What Chevrolet can do, we can too," they thought at Pontiac when Chevrolet released the Camaro (1967).
- John DeLorean, manager of the Pontiac Motor Division General and later founder of the sports car manufacturer DMC, "combined" the Camaro chassis and the name of the turbine-driven show cars Firebird XP-21 from the 1950s to develop the first Firebird.
- Some refer to this as the "coke bottle" years, due to its body style.
- The Firebird first generation (1967-1969) was at the forefront of America's muscle car generation.
- Each generation of the Firebird also had its own sportier variant, each under the name Firebird Trans Am.
- This '69 model (built Okt. 1968) underwent numerous styling updates, like new fender marker lights (Federal mandates), front door vent-windows were replaced with a single pane of glass, the ignition switch installed to the steering column (GM's new locking ignition switch/steering wheel), an updated interior and a refined rear suspension (staggering shocks along with the use of multi-leaf rear springs) and the '69 model had even more changes, like the grille. The rear end and interior only changed slightly.
- Until 1969, a two-door hardtop and a convertible were only available.
- This 2 door hardtop Coupé body style has standard a two-speed automatic gearbox (three-speed automatic and four-speed manual were options) and rear wheel drive.
- A "Ram Air 400 Package" option was also available in 1968, providing functional hood scoops, higher flow heads with stronger valve springs and a different camshaft.
- This "350" in particular (with a Rally-dash) had the "350" engine with a two-barrel carburettor and a four-speed manual gearbox (was an option), but it is replaced by a "400" (6555cc V-8) with a four-barrel Holey carburettor, a Lunati Voodoo camshaft (flat tapped), hydraulic lifters and roller tip tumblers, an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold with pacer (4 holes), dual exhaust with headers, full electric ignition and a Turbo Hydra-Matic 400 three-speed automatic gearbox. It produces now about 350 bhp.
- This "350" was lime-green with a Cordova-top and is now red with a black vinyl roof.
- They were produced at in the Lordstown, the Ohio factory.

Special:
- Chevrolet was co-founded by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant. Louis Chevrolet was a race-car driver, born on December 25, 1878, in La Chaux de Fonds, Switzerland. William Durant, founder of General Motors, had been forced out of GM in 1910 and wanted to use Louis Chevrolet's designs to rebuild his own reputation as a force in the automobile industry. As head of Buick Motor Company, prior to founding GM, Durant had hired Chevrolet to drive Buicks in promotional races.
- By 1916 Chevrolet was profitable enough to allow Durant to buy a majority of shares in GM. After the deal was completed in 1917, Durant was president of General Motors and Chevrolet was merged into GM, becoming a separate division.
- The name “Camaro” was conceived by Chevrolet merchandising manager Bob Lund and General Motors vice president Ed Rollett, while they were reading the book Heath's French and English Dictionary by James Boïelle and by de V. Payen-Payne printed in 1936. It states that Mr. Lund and Mr. Rollett found the word “camaro” in the French-English dictionary was slang, to mean friend, pal, or comrade.
- In fact, the actual French word that has that meaning is "camarade", from which the English word "comrade" is derived and not "camaro"; "camaro" is not a recognized word in the French language.
- The Camaro (code-named Panther) was first shown at a press preview in Detroit, Michigan, on September 12, 1966.
- This first generation Camaro’s (1966-1969) went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford Mustang.
- It shared its platform and major components with the Pontiac Firebird, also introduced for 1967.
- The 1967 Chevrolet Camaro V8 Series 12400 (L30) was available as this 2-door Convertible and as 2-door 12437 Sport Coupé (160,648 units built).

Special:
- TR stands for Triumph Roadster and PI for Petrol Injection.
- Wilhelm Karmann GmbH, Osnabrück (Germany) was commissioned to develop a "new" sports car with as many TR5 parts as possible. So only the front and the rear side were different. Mechanically everything remained the same and even the “ancient” chassis of the Standard Flying Nine from 1936, managed to survive this rejuvenation.
- The engine was already used in the ’67 TR5 and Triumph claimed in their sales brochure that it was the "First British production sports car with petrol injection".
- For the US market the engine (104 bhp / 4.500 rpm) was carburetted with twin Stromberg 175 CDSE carburettors because of U.S. emission standards.
- 86,249 units (total production almost 95,000 units) were sold at the American market and only 8,370 units were equipped with the powerful PI engine.
Memorabilia from 2nd Marine Division. In World War II the US Marines had four camps in the Pāuatahanui area; at Judgeford, at the Porirua side of the foot of the Haywards Hill, at Motukaraka, and in the Moonshine Valley. The Judgedford camp accommodated 3,755 men, the Moonshine camp had a recreation hall and a vehicle servicing depot, and the Haywards camp had a large theatre for the troops. Apart from a few huts for officers, most of the marines were in bell tents.

When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, dividing them into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom. “Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s decide by lot who will get it.” This happened that the scripture might be fulfilled that said, “They divided my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment.”
So this is what the soldiers did.

From Wikipedi:
La Petite France (also known as the Quartier des Tanneurs; German: Gerberviertel; "Tanner's Quarter") is a historic quarter of the city of Strasbourg in eastern France. It is located at the western end of the Grande Île, which contains the historical centre of the city. At Petite France, the River Ill splits up into a number of channels that cascade through an area that was, in the Middle Ages, home to the city's tanners, millers and fishermen, and is now one of Strasbourg's main tourist attractions. Petite France forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Grande Île, designated in 1988.
Just upstream of Petite France, the River Ill flows through the Barrage Vauban, a defensive structure built at the end of the 17th century. Downstream of this, the river splits into the Canal du Faux-Rempart, which flows to the north of the Grande Île, and four channels which flow through the Petite France quarter before reuniting in the main channel of the river, flowing to the south of the Grande Île. These four channels are spanned by the Ponts Couverts, an earlier defensive structure of three bridges and four towers that, despite its name, has not been covered since the 18th century.
Downstream of the Ponts Couverts, the four channels flow through an area of largely half-timbered buildings which, together with the narrow lanes and footbridges that connect them, mostly date from the 16th and 17th centuries. The sloping roofs of many of the buildings include open lofts where hides were once dried. Three of the four channels flowing through the quarter run over weirs that once drove mills and other industries, whilst the northernmost channel is navigable. This passes through a lock and the Pont du Faisan swing bridge in the centre of the quarter, and is largely used by passenger trip boats.
On the north bank of the Ill at the heart of the quarter is the Maison des Tanneurs, home of the Tanner's Guild, and Place Benjamin-Zix. From this square lead several streets, including the Rue du Bain-aux-Plantes and the Rue des Dentelles, also lined by half-timbered houses. To the east these lead to the Saint-Thomas church, the city’s main Lutheran church, and to the west back to the Pont Couverts and to the Saint-Pierre-le-Vieux church, actually two churches (one Protestant and one Catholic) in the same building.

The European Space Armaments Division is proud to present it's newest weapon: the "Spectrum" HME. The HME was built as a request from the aghBan-IgneTek, one of the two alien factions fighting in the ongoing war that tears apart the landscapes of Pegasi. Unlike most common weaponery, the "Spectrum" fires short, highly concentrated bursts of microwave radiation. This was the most important requirement, since both factions wear physicly impenetrable suits.
It can discharge 50 short beams of radiation before needing a new energy cell (green part on the bottom of the stock). Heavy shielding materials were used throughout the weapon to safeguard the eletronic internals.
By pulling the charging handle, conductor bolt will be driven backwards and lock itself in place right above the energy cell, coming into contact with it. When this happens, a high amount of eletric energy is transfered to the conductor bolt. Pulling the trigger will release the bolt, disconnecting it from the energy cell and connecting it to the transfer chamber. There, the eletric energy is transfered from the bolt to the emmiter itself, causing it to release a short concentrated beam of microwave radiation. Finally, the conductor bolt is driven back again by a magnetic repulsion system, (much like a gas system pushing the bolt back on old firearms) locking it back on top of the energy cell. Semi and fully automatic firing modes are available.
Lethality is acheived by this weapon, because when any part of a living organism gets hit by a beam, it's molecules vibrate insanely faster than normal, causing the area to suffer from intense internal burns. The Kyani nicknamed the weapon "Body Melter", having said that wounded soldiers looked like drops of lava had been poored on them.
The HME's aesthetics we're based on the faction's armor and colors and the internals are built from both our and their materials and technology.

Credit my girlfriend for the name "Spectrum" :)
Much smaller than my German Division. :) US, British, Aussie, French, Russian. Tanks, Half-tracks, UCs, UEs, 5 Stueys, Armored Cars, Aerosleds, Tank Destroyers.
Still want to make a 9-wide Sherman (having probs), a US tank destroyer, and an Achilles TD.
The shadow of Saturn on the rings, which stretched across all of the rings earlier in Cassini's mission (see PIA08362), now barely makes it past the Cassini division.
The changing length of the shadow marks the passing of the seasons on Saturn. As the planet nears its northern-hemisphere solstice in May 2017, the shadow will get even shorter. At solstice, the shadow's edge will be about 28,000 miles (45,000 kilometers) from the planet's surface, barely making it past the middle of the B ring.
The moon Mimas is a few pixels wide, near the lower left in this image.
This view looks toward the sunlit side of the rings from about 35 degrees above the ring plane. The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on May 21, 2016.
The view was obtained at a distance of approximately 2.0 million miles (3.2 million kilometers) from Saturn. Image scale is 120 miles (190 kilometers) per pixel.
The Cassini mission is a cooperative project of NASA, ESA (the European Space Agency) and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

Il tramezzo che taglia la navata centrale racchiude altri enigmi, legati sia alla funzione dell’elemento architettonico che all’apparato scultoreo. Nelle chiese altomedievali strutture simili delimitavano uno spazio, detto endonartece, riservato ai catecumeni, non battezzati, e ai penitenti pubblici, mentre nel gotico francese compare lo jubé, elemento derivato dall’iconostasi bizantina, che separava la zona dell’altare o il coro dal resto della chiesa.
