Members of the Fort Drum Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers teamed with the Atkins Functional Fitness Facility staff to host the BOSS Invade Atkins challenge. The functional fitness course showcased the Alpha Warrior Battle Rig, where 10th Mountain Division (LI) Soldiers tested their strength, agility and endurance across a series of obstacles. Staff Sgt. Tony Celestino, with D Company, 2nd Battalion, 14th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, recorded the fastest time on the course at 3 minutes and 47 seconds. Spc. Andy Davila, with 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry Regiment, 2BCT, was second behind at 3:55. (Photo by Mike Strasser, Fort Drum Garrison Public Affairs)

The Wielingen class was a class of four multi-functional frigates constructed for and operated by the Belgian Naval Component. In service from 1976 to 2008 with the Belgians, three of the class were sold to Bulgaria for service with the Bulgarian Navy beginning in 2004. The fourth, Westhinder, ran aground in 1988, was decommissioned in 1993 and was scrapped.
The Belgian government began studies in 1969 for a new type of escort that would meet the requirements of escort missions in the North Sea and English Channel during the Cold War. The design would also only be limited to weapon systems already in service with or under development by NATO navies. The design also emphasized seaworthiness, automation and watertight integrity. The weapons systems, with the exception of the Sea Sparrow surface-to-air missile (SSM) were French. The radar and tactical data systems were Dutch and the hull and machinery were constructed in Belgium. As part of the project, the Belgian government made Belgian shipbuilding participation mandatory in the construction of the new ships.
The frigates feature an action information centre between decks and the ships could be split into two independent gas-tight citadels in the case of nuclear, biological or chemical warfare. All machinery could be controlled from a central control station. The vessels measured 103.0 metres (337 ft 11 in) long between perpendiculars and 106.4 m (349 ft 1 in) overall with a beam of 12.3 m (40 ft 4 in) and a draught of 5.6 m (18 ft 4 in). The ships had a light displacement of 1,880 tonnes (1,850 long tons) and 2,283 t (2,247 long tons) at full load. By 2004, the light displacement had increased to 1,940 t (1,910 long tons) and to 2,430 t (2,390 long tons) at full load.
The ships are propelled by a two-shaft combined diesel or gas (CODOG) system. This is composed of a single Rolls-Royce Olympus TM3B gas turbine creating 21,000 kilowatts (28,000 shp) and giving the frigates a maximum speed of 28 knots (52 km/h; 32 mph) or two Cockerill CO 240 V12 diesel engines creating 4,500 kW (6,000 bhp) with a maximum speed of 20 knots (37 km/h; 23 mph) on both diesels or 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph) on just one. These turned controllable pitch propellers. The frigates have a range of 4,500 nautical miles (8,300 km; 5,200 mi) at 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph). The vessels also had four 500 kW diesel alternators for electric production. They had a complement of 160 including 15 officers in Belgian service.
The Wielingen class were armed with four launchers for MM38 Exocet anti-ship missiles, later converted to two twin launchers. They were equipped with a Mark 29 octuple launcher for eight RIM-7M Sea Sparrow SAMs. These were later upgraded to the RIM-7P model. The frigates also mount a single 100-millimetre (3.9 in)/55 calibre modèle 68 naval gun, one six-barrelled Creusot-Loire 375 mm (14.8 in) anti-submarine warfare (ASW) rocket launcher with Bofors rockets, and two catapults for L5 torpedoes. The class was fitted with two eight-barrelled Corvus chaff launchers, a Sagem Vigy 105 optronic director, a Signaal DA-05 air/surface search radar, a WM-25 surface search radar, SQS-510 hull-mounted sonar, and the SEWACO IV tactical data system with Link 11 capability. They were also given Argos AR 900 intercept electronic support measures and SLQ-25 Dixie torpedo decoy system.
Wandelaar was designed as a platform capable of multiple uses as an escort during the Cold War in the North Sea and English Channel. The vessel uses weapons and sensor technology from NATO counterparts, which was one of the reasons the ship was acquired by the Bulgarian Navy in 2004. The frigate is currently in active service.
The construction programme of four ships was approved by the Belgian government on 23 June 1971 and an order was placed with two Belgian shipyards in October 1973. The vessel was laid down on 28 March 1975 by Boelwerf at Temse, Belgium. Wandelaar was launched on 21 June 1977, named after the Wandelaar sand bank off the coast of Belgium, near Zeebrugge, as the third ship in the Wielingen class. The frigate was later commissioned on 3 October 1978 with pennant number F912. Wandelaar was based at Zeebrugge.
Architectural and functional wall gardens which soften the brutalist lines of cheap to construct buildings, help to manage heating and cooling while contibuting to the well beng of inhabitants of the city and the building are admirable.
Now that you've got the idea that growing food is also admirable, but you've got a pokey little plot around a McMansion, you might want to spend a while in lockdown to wonder why your plot isn't suited to you new need and what you might do about the solar access and growing area problem.
Yeah, you could move out. Honestly, with all the uncertainty and falling real estate prices, is that a good idea? Probably not. Let me introduce you to the wonders of vertical gardening.
A typical garden bed spreads across the two dimension of the ground surface. It spreads out, shades the adjacent soil and catches an oblique view of the sun, like a solar panel laid flat on the ground. The most efficient solar panels are angled at 90° to the incident rays of the sun. That's simplified to flat at the equator and vertical near the poles. Chances are that you are somewhere entirely different. Tipping your garden up to optimise efficiency is maybe an option for a hydroponic garden. But that needs a lot of hardware, chemicals and energy. That's out of scope for most.
If you plant a vertical garden at the back of a garden bed which faces the sun it can grow upwards from roots at the back of the bed while the horizontal part in front can grow shorter things. You're now intersecting more of the sun's rays with the same little garden bed.
This simple idea puts a trellis behind on the edge of your garden. You mightn't have the bits and pieces just lying about and may not be able to get hold of them right now. But when you do, you want a simple, strong support with strings, wires or mesh that your plants can climb. Perhaps that could be peas in autumn or like these things, pumpkins, cucumbers and beans. Yeah, really. Growing pumpkins and training them up a trellis is perfectly viable and makes something you'd think impossible, possible. These beans are dried in their pods where they grew and are for storing to eat later. They were marketed last century as "Deb's Creek Beans", probably a misprint of "Greek". They are delicious, make awesome baked beans and are very productive. You can't buy them anywhere now. But when you get a good 'un you should save seeds and keep them going. You'll find other climbing dried beans out there. The same is true for these pumpkins. I don't know what they are. the seeds came from a pumpkin gifted by a friend. It's productive, a good keeper and has firm, tasty flesh. So I save seeds and grow it up a frame each year. It's like free food.
Now you're stuck at home, study the path of the sun, line up a bed at 90° to that, plan a trellis about 2m high and enjoy the delights and productivity of vertical gardening!
No proprietary dongle, and the decision to use multiple connectors (rather than a single USB cord) means instant driverless playtime.

[ Overview of SkyWalking ]
"SkyWalking is a GPS logging application developed for outdoor activities in harsh environments such as mountain climbing and ultra-marathons, where you have to travel for a long time in mountainous or desert areas without internet access. As a GPS logger, it can record your activities while tracing them in real time on a cached map, and export them to a GPX file to be shared with external services. It is also an application that allows you to enjoy the GPS logging in situations other than mountaineering, such as normal outings and travel. This app has been developed since its release in 2015 with the goal of "making GPS logging and GPS location information easily available to all iPhone users". By installing this app, your iPhone will become a highly functional GPS gear that can accurately determine your current location and route.

For the functionality I build, I am pretty confident because it has been tested many times under different scenarios before being activated. I pretty enjoy the coding process.
