Redstone was the Army's largest surface-to-surface ballistic missile. Modified Redstone rockets launched America's first satellite and first human into space. Developed by Wernher Von Braun, Redstone is a direct descendant of the German V-2 rocket.

 

As a field artillery missile, Redstone was designed to extend the firepower and range of conventional artillery cannon against ground targets. It could deliver a nuclear or high-explosive warhead to targets 200 miles away. In 1951, a nuclear warhead meant a 3-ton package. Since Redstone was a ballistic missile, its initial trajectory and guidance was provided by the launcher. Great care was taken to level the missile and to orient the stabilized platform accurately in the direction of the target.

 

Redstone's liquid-fueled engine burned alcohol and liquid oxygen, producing about 75,000 pounds of thrust. At burnout, or when the propellant was exhausted, it had a speed of 3,800 miles per hour (6,116 kilometers per hour). For guidance, Redstone had a totally new pure-inertial guidance system using air-bearing gyros. Beyond the earth's atmosphere the inertial guidance system directed it toward the target. After reaching the proper speed, the rocket engine cut out and dropped off, along with the fuel tanks. Then the guidance system and warhead coasted to the target.

 

As a field artillery missile, Redstone was mobile and transportable by plane, truck or train. However, when on the move, it needed a convoy eighteen miles long, with 200 vehicles carrying approximately 10,000 individual pieces of equipment and more than 600 men. The Redstone itself was carried on three trucks-its nose section (warhead) midsection (power plant and fuel tanks) and tail section- to be assembled in the field.

 

Named after Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, where it was developed and built, Redstone's development was triggered by outbreak of the Korean War in 1950 to counter Soviet Cold War threats. The first Redstone missile was launched on August 20, 1953 from the Army's missile test range at Cape Canaveral, Florida, and traveled 8,000 yards (7,315 meters). Thirty-six more were launched rough 1958, testing structure, engine performance, guidance and control, tracking and telemetry. On May 16, 1958, combat-ready soldiers fired their first Redstone rocket. It was put into U.S. Army service in Germany that June.

 

Redstone has been called the Model-T of the Free World's space program. A solid-fuel fourth stage was added to it and Redstone became the Jupiter-C rocket. On January 31, 1958, a Jupiter-C lifted America's first orbiting satellite, Explorer I, into space.

 

Starting in 1959, warhead some Redstone rockets were modified for NASA's Mercury program. Propellant tanks were elongated by 96 inches, adding 20 seconds of burn time. The section was replaced by the Mercury capsule and escape tower. The first of these Mercury Redstone rockets was tested at Cape Canaveral on December 19, 1960. On May 5, 1961, astronaut Alan Shepard became the first American in space when he was launched on a suborbital flight in a Mercury capsule by a Redstone rocket engine.

 

Between 1958 and 1962, eighteen Redstone missiles were fired at White Sands Missile Range. Pershing replaced Redstone beginning in 1960.

This McDonald's will soon be torn down and will sport the new modern prototype after being here for more than 40 years. Sure, it looks nice enough in this picture, but I'm pretty confident that what the customer can't see is what the problem is. I'm sure the prep area is all worn out and the back offices are ancient.

 

What was unique about this particular McDonald's is that it was divided into three sections: two sections at ground level, and one section had what I call "the pit" where you had to step down four steps to go into the midsection, which is not ADA / handicap accessible, but in the 1970's, I don't think that was at the top of their list when they built this location. My local McDonald's in Carroll, Iowa, sported this exact same layout, complete with "the pit" and the booth with the Legos to play with (this one had the Legos as well, but of course, they're gone now).

 

Have any of you witnessed a McDonald's with the prototype I described that still exists? Let me know! Thanks!

BTR-112 Cockroach IFV

(Doubles up as SPAAG w/ SAM)

 

--------------------

 

An armoured personnel carrier utilized by the UT Enforcer Corps starting 2016.

 

The advanced 20 ton APC utilizes a dual 57mm autocannon system along with Igla anti-air missiles. It multipurposes as a SPAAG, the cannons can be used against any type of unit. AP rounds can be loaded for anti-armour purposes.

 

It is equipped with it's own radar system and an advanced targeting computer.

 

It's armour is heavy and the vehicle is slower compared to others of it's kind, but it is worth it. It uses armour similar to the Ogre MBT.

 

Basic armour shell with an insert of alternating layers of aluminum and plastics and a controlled deformation section as it's first tier.

 

The second tier is the Kontakt-5 ERA (explosive reactive armor). It severely reduces the blow from kinetic projectiles. They are in the form of blocks on the turret and body or as ERA plates underneath steel outer covering. It results in much better protection than simple steel armour.

 

It utilizes a state-of-the-art infrared missile/projectile detection and elimination system, it is visible on the midsection as a sphere with a large red diode.

Inspiration from Endwar. The BTR-112 Cockroach from the Spetsnaz Brigade.

Ezrelor the Worryingly Unhinged. The conversion's based on one of the old metal Dark Eldar Hellion models, which had just the right look of screaming fury for a combat-ready general.

 

I wanted something a bit more vicious for him to swing in combat, hence the axe. It's still not clear why this fighter's armour leaves his vulnerable midsection uncovered; maybe it's just a sign of a true hardcase.

Her midsection appears oddly long here. Her small breasts have a natural slope. The larger breasts actually help make her torso look shorter. While they do pop out too much, they look a lot more believable from the side.

A blue moon is a full moon that is not timed to the regular monthly pattern. Most years have twelve full moons which occur approximately monthly, but in addition to those twelve full lunar cycles, each solar calendar year contains an excess of roughly eleven days compared to the lunar year. The extra days accumulate, so that every two or three years (7 times in the 19-year Metonic cycle), there is an extra full moon. The extra moon is called a "blue moon." Different definitions place the "extra" moon at different times.

 

Top 10 Amazing moon facts

 

The moon formed as a result of a collision known as the Giant Impact or the Big Whack, scientists figure. It went like this: A giant Mars-sized object hit Earth 4.6 billion years ago shortly after the birth of the sun and the solar system.

Earth Makes the Moon Rise:Each day, though not at the same time, the moon comes up in the East and goes down in the West -- much like the sun and other stars and for the same reason.

Contrary to what you might have heard, there is no "dark side" of the moon. There is, however, a "far side" that we can't see from Earth.

The moon is about 27 percent the size of Earth and far less massive. Gravity on the moon is only about 1/6 of that on Earth. If you drop a rock on the moon, it falls more slowly (and astronauts can hope much higher). If you weigh 150 pounds on Earth, you'd weigh 25 pounds on the moon.

The moon's orbit around Earth is an oval, not a circle, so the distance between the center of Earth and the moon's center varies throughout each orbit. At perigee (PEHR uh jee), when the moon is closest to Earth, that distance is 225,740 miles (363,300 kilometers). At apogee (AP uh jee), the farthest position, the distance is 251,970 miles (405,500 kilometers).

The craters on the moon reveal its violent history. Because there is almost no atmosphere and little activity inside the moon, the crater trace a record of impacts back billions of years (unlike Earth, which would have been just as violent back then, but the craters have all been weathered away or folded back into the planet).

The moon is not round (or spherical). Instead, it's shaped like an egg. If you go outside and look up at the moon, one of the small ends is pointing right at you. And the moon's center of mass is not at the geometric center of the satellite; it's about 1.2 miles (2 kilometers) off-center. Earth, likewise, bulges in its midsection.

Apollo astronauts used seismometers during their visits to the moon and discovered that the gray orb isn't a totally dead place, geologically speaking. Small moonquakes, originating several miles (kilometers) below the surface, are thought to be caused by the gravitational pull of Earth. Sometimes tiny fractures appear at the surface, and gas escapes.

Tides on Earth are caused mostly by the moon (the sun has a smaller effect)

Ciao, Luna!: As you read this, the moon is moving away from us. Each year, the moon steals some of Earth's rotational energy, and uses it to propel itself about 1.6 inches (4 centimeters) higher in its orbit.

This is an actual car I found at the Kirkland Concours d' Elegance in September of 2009.

It reminded me of the "Dream Car" stylist drawings of the mid 50's. So with my Artistic License clearly displayed, I gave it that "longer, lower, wider" look that served Detroit stylists back then so well. The actual car had a 1959 Chevy rear end. 58 Chevy midsection and 1957 Chevy front end grafted to a C-6. This Photoshop image is done in a graphic style designers would have used to make their proposals stand out during executive presentations.

President 32112 was one of the best ones in terms of how pristine the front dome looked, thanks to a massive L-shaped patch on the nearside corner, though I don't want to think what kind of damage lies below it. It's also gained circular marker lights from an older Eclipse. On 19.7.23 it makes the turn off Rampant Horse Street with an orange line 21.

 

Bizarrely, the livery application varies between the different Network Norwich Presidents. Although all follow the same pattern with diagonally separated colours, some (like 32112 and 32203) are at a steeper angle with the white midsection only beginning behind the front wheels. Yet others (like 32101 and 32205) have a far shallower colour separation and the white comes almost to the front bumper... how unusual!

Chuckwallas are large lizards found primarily in arid regions of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. Some are found on coastal islands. There are five species of chuckwallas, all within the genus Sauromalus; they are part of the iguanid family, Iguanidae.

 

Chuckwallas are a stocky wide-bodied lizard with a flattened midsection and prominent belly. Their tails are thick, tapering to a blunt tip. Loose folds of skin characterize the neck and sides of the body, which is covered in small, coarsely granular scales. The common chuckwalla (Sauromalus ater) measures 15 3/4 inches.

 

The genus Sauromalus has a wide distribution in biomes of the Sonoran and Mojave Deserts. The common chuckwalla (Sauromalus ater) is the species with the greatest range, found from southern California east to southern Nevada and Utah, western Arizona and south to Baja California and northwestern Mexico. The peninsular chuckwalla (Sauromalus australis) is found on the eastern portion of the southern half of the Baja California peninsula.

 

Chuckwallas prefer lava flows and rocky areas. These areas are typically vegetated by creosote bush and other such drought-tolerant scrub. The lizards may be found at elevations of up to 4,500 feet (1,370 m).

This is the aluminum outer case for a W80 warhead. It serves as a structural and protective container. Its mounting hardware allows it to be attached to a cruise missile. The Mod 1 (left) and Mod 0 (right) warheads are nearly identical. The mounting and installation hardware for the cruise missile bodies are different, but little else.

 

W80

The W80 is the warhead used on the three types of cruise missiles in the U.S. arsenal. There are two modifications (mods):

Mod 1 on air-launched cruise missiles launched from bombers

Mod 0 on missiles, called Tomahawks, which can be launched from certain attack submarines sea-launched cruise

 

AGM-86 Air-Launched Cruise Missile (ALCM)

The Air-Launched Cruise Missile is a long-range, unpiloted craft. It provides the U.S. Air Force with a strategic weapon that can be launched outside enemy airspace. The missile can carry a conventional or a nuclear warhead in its midsection, just in front of the wings.

 

Radar detection is difficult because of the missile's small size and low-altitude flight. It can fly just above treetops at 500 miles per hour. Infrared detection is difficult because the turbofan engine emits little heat.

 

The missile navigates and locates its target by using several guidance systems. An inertial navigation system uses sensors and gyroscopes to measure acceleration and changes in direction. It is updated during flight by a more precise system that matches the contour of the terrain using maps stored in computer memory. On some missiles, a Global Positioning System receiver uses the military's network of satellites to detect positions with high accuracy. The target system, or the missile, may use a camera and image correlator to find the target with Digital Scene Matching Area Correlation. This guidance system is especially effective if the target is moving. A cruise missile can also be equipped with heat-sensing or light-sensing devices.

 

The missile is destroyed when the warhead explodes. Cruise missiles armed with conventional explosives have been used during hostilities in Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, and the Balkans.

 

Built by: Boeing Defense and Space Group

Length: 20 ft, 9 in

Weight 3,150 pounds

Diameter: 24.5 inches

Wingspan: 12 ft

Range: 1,500 miles

Speed: 500 miles per hour

Warheads: conventional explosives or W80 (nuclear)

Date deployed: 1982 AGM-86B, 1991 AGM-86C

Inventory: 1,142 AGM-86B: 239 AGM-86C

The second stage of the build is the middle deck and masts. The masts each contain a 32x Technic axle through the centre for stability, which works a treat. At this scale, the pillar pieces look good too. The build is a little repetitive using Technic axles and connectors to make the wooden side poles but they are mainly of different lengths, so it's not bad at all. Certainly I found this build a very enjoyable one, and with a minimum of repetition compared to other large exclusives like the 10196 Carousel or 10189 Taj Mahal.

This unique Great Lakes self-unloading bulk carrier was built by Port Weller Dry Docks, St. Catharines, Ont., as Hull #41. She was christened Canadian Century for Upper Lakes Group, Inc., Toronto, Ont., on April 15, 1967 by Mrs. G. E. Gathercole, wife of the Chairman of the Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario. The name paid tribute to the 100th anniversary of Canada’s confederation.

 

At the time of her launch, the vessel was the largest capacity self-unloading vessel on the Great Lakes. Her squared hull design reduced wasted space thus increasing her tonnage, however her very tall wheelhouse and forward accommodation block gave her the distinction of being known as the “little bank building that floats.”

 

The Canadian Century’s original self-unloading system consisted of a single, center line conveyor belt gravity system with a 300-ton reclaimer feeding a bucket/hopper elevator system leading to a forward-mounted 250 foot discharge boom. The reclaimer consisted of 2 auger screws, each 26 feet long and 7 feet high. As they would turn, the cargo would be forced forward to the bucket elevator system. It could discharge at a rate of up to 4,000 tons per hour. Due to the technological advances in self-unloading systems, the Canadian Century’s bucket elevator system was replaced in 1975/76 with a modern loop belt elevator system capable of discharging cargo at a rate of up to 4,572 tons per hour. The discharge boom can be swung 95 degrees to port or starboard.

 

The vessel is powered by a Burmeister & Wain type 574 VT2F 160 diesel engine rated at 7,394 b.h.p. at 115 r.p.m. burning intermediate grade 180 fuel driving a controllable pitch propeller, giving the vessel a service speed of 14.5 knots. She is equipped with a 1,000 horsepower bowthruster. Her enormous single hold is fed by 22 hatches. She can carry 25,700 tons at maximum Seaway draft of 26 feet and is capable of carrying 31,600 tons at her maximum mid-summer draft of 29 feet 4 inches. Other capacities include 465 tons of fuel oil, 75 tons of diesel oil, 186 tons of potable water, and 17,348 tons of water ballast.

 

In December 2001, Canadian Century entered Port Weller Dry Docks for a mid-life refit. The $25-million (C) refit was similar to the work that the shipyard completed on Canada Steamship Lines’ CSL Tadoussac the winter before. The bow and stern sections remained intact, along with most of the main deck. The cargo hold and the rest of the midsection were replaced with a new, larger cargo hold and a one-belt self-unloading system with a flat tank top. When it returned to service in May of 2002, it not only carried more cargo, but could operate more efficiently through the increased use of technology.

 

The Century was built specifically to accommodate Upper Lakes Group’s first contract to carry coal for Ontario Hydro. During her first season of operation, she made 63 trips delivering coal totaling 1.7 million tons. On Dec. 8, 1967, she set a Welland Canal coal record by carrying 28,283 tons from Conneaut, Ohio, to Dofasco at Hamilton, Ont. June 18, 1969 saw the Canadian Century load a Conneaut, Ohio, record of 31,081 tons of coal for Ontario Hydro’s Lambton Generating Station at Courtright, Ont. In her early years, she would sail to Sept Isles, Que., to rendezvous with her former fleet mate Ontario Power to transfer coal loaded aboard the latter vessel at Sydney, Nova Scotia, for delivery to Nanticoke, Ont. The Canadian Century carried her first load of taconite ore pellets in 1986 when she loaded 25,427 tons at Pointe Noire, Que., for Hamilton, Ont. The vessel has carried cargoes of salt from ports such as Goderich, Ont., and Fairport, Ohio. She has also carried the odd cargo of grain products.

 

In her later years, the Canadian Century sailed under the management of Seaway Marine Transport, St. Catharines, Ont., a partnership of Algoma Central and Upper Lakes Group.

 

On March 23, 2001, the vessel was honored in the traditional Top Hat ceremony recognizing the passing of the first upbound vessel through the Welland Canal for the 2001 navigation season.

 

In 2002, the vessel was renamed John D. Leitch, honoring the chairman of the Upper Lakes Group. On February 25, 2011, a formal statement was issued announcing the sale of the privately owned Upper Lakes fleet and their associated interest in Seaway Marine Transport to the Algoma Central Corporation. On April 15, 2011, Algoma announced that the John D. Leitch would retain her name.

Chuckwallas, or less commonly Chuckawallas, (Sauromalus ater) is the largest lizard, growing up to 17 inches and 2 pounds, native to the Americas, ranging throughout southwestern United States and nothern Mexico. Part of the iguana family, the name derives from the Shoshone word "tcaxxwal" or Cahuilla "caxwal", transcribed by Spaniards as "chacahuala".

 

Noted for their wide, flattened midsections and prominent paunch, their tails are also notably thick, tapering to a blunt tip. Loose folds of skin characterise the neck and sides of the body. Males have reddish to orange, yellow or light gray bodies and black heads, shoulders and limbs; females and the immature have bodies with scattered spots or contrasting bands of light and dark in shades of gray or yellow.

 

Chuckwallas prefer lava flows and rocky areas, such as those found in the Sonoran and Mojave Deserts, and can be found at elevations of up to 4,500 feet. well adapted to desert conditions, they are active at temperatures of up to 102°F (39°C) and hibernate during cooler months. Primarily herbivorous, the diurnal lizards feed on leaves, fruit and flowers of annuals and perennial plants; insects represent a supplementary prey.

 

Harmless to humans, these lizards are known to run from potential threats; a tight rock crevice is sought wherein the Chuckwalla will inflate its body with air in order to wedge itself.

The Bronx Zoo, located within the Bronx Park, is the largest metropolitan zoo in the United States, comprising 265 acres of parklands and naturalistic habitats and home to over 4,000 animals. Focused on conservation, it opened on November 8, 1899, with 22 exhibits, 843 animals. The zoo's origins date back to 1895, with the establishment of the New york Zoological Society (NYZS), renamed Wild Conservation Scoiety (WCS) in 1993. Only the outer structure of the World of Reptiles remains much as it was in 1899. With the 1941 opening of African Plains, the Bronx Zoo was one of the first U.S. zoos to move away from cages and exhibit animals in naturalistic habitats.
