Patrick Blanc, inventor of the vertical garden, and creator of Drew School’s ‘living wall’ – the largest such installation in the U.S. visits the San Francisco prep school. The 1,720sf project is this world-renowned botanist's largest installation in the United States.
This is VERY rough and ready, I need to sort out the length and the background is in the wrong place (watch out for disappearing hands!) but give a quick glimpse into what I'm up to at the moment. :-)
A fun and easy way to get started with programming and hardware interaction. The Inventor Kits are used for classes and special programs in the Lee Innovation Lab.
Australian industry and society mobilised for a total effort. Railway workshops built armoured fighting vehicles, field artillery, and aircraft components. AWA built military signals equipment, Lysaght Steel made guns and bayonets, and Rheem Australia made military canteens and mess tins. Australia’s existing arms industry, including the Small Arms Factory at Lithgow in New South Wales, the ordnance factory at Maribyrnong in Victoria, and the proofing range at Wakefield in South Australia, were expanded, and hundreds of annexes and supporting factories established.
Australian scientists and inventors made a major contribution to Australia’s war effort during the dark days of the invasion threat. They assessed enemy weapons and developed new weapons and equipment for Australian and Allied fighting forces. Australian innovation ranged from Evelyn Owen’s sub-machine-gun to Sir Stanton Hicks’s ration pack.
Those with ideas for new weapons or tools for the war effort were encouraged by the Army Inventions Directorate, established in March 1942. In the first nine months of the Directorate’s existence it received 6,426 submissions, from which 771 were selected as being worthy of development.
Not all of the inventions worked. Some were badly made and others duplicated equipment available more cheaply and in greater quantity from our Allies.
Using the three buttons with yellow icons we can change the direction we will extrude. In this screen it is set up extrude below the rectangle. We can also change the distance we extrude through.
Romanian Inventor Mircea Tudor believes that everything can be innovated. He invented the “Roboscan” gamma scanner, the most advanced system in the world, which can scan trucks or rail cars in a flash. It can be operated remotely by a single operator thereby eliminating the risk of professional and accidental irradiation. Watch the video.

Unlike the first extrusion this time Inventor doesn't know which part of the sketch we want to extrude, so we have to select it ourselves. With the 'Profile' button selected click on the areas I have chosen and your screen should look like mine.
If your screen look s like this then great but of course this isn't quite right yet, we will have to make some changes to the options. Don't click OK, instead look at the next few screens to see what to do.
A view of the pyramids at Giza from the plateau to the south of the complex. From right to left are the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Pyramid of Menkaure. The three smaller pyramids in the foreground are associated with Menkaure's pyramid. Ricardo Liberato
