1955 W196 R 2.5 Streamlined Racing Car
The first Daimler-Benz formula racing car built after the war. In this car, Juan Manuel Fangio won the 1954 and 1955 world championship titles. After their pre-war success, no-one doubted that Daimler-Benz would recommence formula racing. But the time for this did not come until the new formula racing regulations were introduced in 1954. Now, the engines could have a displacement of 750 cc in the supercharged version or of 2.5 litre in the naturally aspirated version. The Daimler-Benz company chose the naturally aspirated version the development of the car was put into the hands of Rudolf Uhlenhaut. The very first entry of the new W 196 R in the French GP at Reims ended with a great success: Fangio and Kling could score a twin victory. The next entry in the Silverstone race, however, was less successful, probably due to the streamlined body which was unsuitable for that track. This experience resulted in the development of the monoposto body. Subsequently, various versions of the car were manufactured with different wheelbases - 2210 and 2150 mm-, and different brake locations - internal or external.

It's not just 19-century industrial sites that Greenpoint's waterfront will lose thanks to recent rezoning and imminent construction of high-rise condos. This building is probably doomed too. According to the Municipal Art Society (see link below), it's a rare (in NYC) example of streamlined moderne architecture from the 1930s. The building is an amazing assemblage of curves and boxes (and wonderful typography in that sign too).
If you're interested in helping to preserve some of these old buildings in Greenpoint, check out the Waterfront Preservation Alliance.

Recent shift to AMC enables streamlined logistics services

CAMP CASEY, SOUTH KOREA – The logisticians who look after Warrior Country’s transportation, maintenance and supply needs are now able to provide even more robust services thanks to a recent change that gives them broader, faster reach into the Army’s overall logistics network.
The U.S. Army Garrison Red Cloud and Area I’s Directorate of Logistics ran the Central Issue Facility at Camp Hovey and the transportation motor pools that provide buses and vehicle maintenance in Warrior Country.
They did that as part of the U.S. Army Installation Management Command, of which USAG Red Cloud and Area I is a part.
But, effective Oct. 1, all Army DOL assets shifted from IMCOM to the U.S. Army Materiel Command. AMC is a global command that supports Army logistics worldwide.
The shift plugs in the DOL to AMC’s global logistics network.
And in Warrior Country, DOL is now part of the 403rd Army Field Support Brigade Area I, said DOL director Dennis Williams.
For Warrior Country customers, that’ll mean that when one of the 403rd AFSB’s facilities in Warrior Country runs low on an item – helmets or vehicle parts – for example, they can be shipped from another facility that does have them, even one in, say, Japan, Williams said.
The transition will not pose any confusion or inconvenience for DOL customers, he said.
“For Area I it will be transparent,” he said. “The services we did yesterday are the same services that we’ll do today and tomorrow.”
The Area I DOL marked the shift to AMC with a low-key patch-and-pin ceremony Oct. 3 at Camp Casey’s Carey Fitness Center.
There, DOL’s Soldiers traded in their seven-sided IMCOM patch for the shield-shaped AMC patch, while civilians received an AMC lapel pin.
“On behalf of the Army Materiel Command I want to welcome you to the new AMC family,” Col. Michael Lopez, commander of the 403rd AFSB, said during the ceremony.
For the more than 300 DOL Soldiers, Department of the Army Civilians and Korean civilians in Warrior Country, the 403rd AFSB is now their higher headquarters. But, they’re not alone. On Oct. 1, the 403rd also took command and control of all DOLs in Korea, Japan and Okinawa.
The changeover process was set in motion in March 2005 when the leadership of IMCOM and AMC decided to develop a logistics partnership to improve support to the Army and the Army’s transformation plan.

The streamlined fastback rear of my Tatra 603, made all the more curvacious by being seen through a fisheye lens attachment. This is at Bawdsey, Suffolk, and was pictured on the second SALT Rally in June 2008.
The second SALT (Soviet Auto Luxury Tour) Rally was held in and around Framlingham in Suffolk, over the weekend of June 6-8 2008. This is a rally for classic cars made during the Cold War period - 1945-91. We visit places of Cold-War interest, and enjoy some great touring and comradeship along the way. Although SALT largely features vehicles built under Communism, no political statement is intended or should be implied.
This picture was taken using, appropriately enough, my East German (made in '87) Carl Zeiss Jenaflex AM-1 35mm film camera.
The streamlined inverted bath-tub style of the late-1940s Nash sedan quickly dated. This rare example was found in New Orleans. The contemporary Standard Vanguard in the UK copied the style in shrunken form.
An all-new streamlined appearance, commonly called ponton, was offered by Packard, and the Series 22 Custom Super Eight replaced the Custom Super Clipper and was the top-level trim package sedan, limousine and convertible. The "free-flow" slab-sided appearance was shared with all Packards and senior trim levels could be distinguished with an egg-crate grille, and horizontal bars below the traditional "ox-yoke" grille that wrapped around to the front wheel opening. The overall appearance was distinctive, with Packard winning several awards for the design, including the "Fashion Car of the Year" from the New York Fashion Academy.
The "Winged Goddess" cormorant hood ornament was introduced, intended to evoke the popular appearance from Packards of the 1930s. The 2-door Club Sedan was joined with the first convertible offered since 1942, called the Victoria Convertible Model 2259, and was available with the Super and Custom Super trim packages. Custom Super trim packages could be identified by having two stainless steel body trim at the bottom edge of the body, while Super trim did not have them after 1949.

with their sleek, streamlined bodies, reddish gold coats, and the dramatic markings on the face, caracals are among the most beautiful of cats. also called the desert lynx, medium-sized caracals have no spots or stripes and have longer legs than a true lynx and a slimmer body. they are the heaviest and also the fastest of the small cats. like the rest of the small cats, they may purr when content and make a variety of other mews, growls, and hisses to express their mood.

Is your ISP spying on your surfing under the pretext of "streamlined advertising'? Are they using 'behavioural analysis software' to sell an audit trail of the sites you visit to third parties to boost their own profits? Would you really be happy with your phone operator asking a mystery company to tap your telephone conversations so you can receive targetted junk mail? Well that's exactly what this new generation of ISP based 'AdWare' is intended to do.
Yes, but what makes this different from say, FaceBook, or YouTube analysing your personal profiles? Well, you can filter the information you choose to place on your personal home pages. Unlike 'profiling software' which gives a complete view of the where and when that you visit. And everyone who uses a domestic internet connection has their activity recorded, not just the person who might willingly 'opt-in' to the scheme. Your parents, your children, even your pets if they can click a mouse.
Data about personal net activity is traded through what is called the Open Information Exchange, or OIX - although many people might be unhappy to hear that their surfing habits were being traded 'openly'. You might have installed Norton, McAffee, Windows Defender, etc, to destroy spyware on your personal computer. But what use is this if your ISP is running similar spyware either with or, without, your consent? Read more about this issue at:

www.thinkbroadband.com/news/3446-bt-retail-to-test-phorm-...
In the UK, B.T. Broadband customers are to 'enjoy' the benefits of having their surfing recorded by third party company Phorm. There is a Downing Street petition against this. Visit:

ISPs state in their terms and conditions that, "we respect your privacy." Sadly, they also state, " terms and conditions are subject to change."

The glossy brochure issued by the British Transport Commission who, along with the railways that served the Terminal, operated the UK's ex-railways docks, harbours and inland waterways through the Docks and Inland Waterways Executive. It describes the fine Ocean Terminal constructed in post-war austerity and opened on 31 July 1950 to serve the then huge numbers of passengers who travelled on liner services and arrived or departed Southampton by rail. As can be seen the Terminal was designed to deal with a full range of services from arrival or departure by train at 'ground level' and on upper floors services such as baggage, customs and passport control were situated along with a wide range of almost airport style passenger amenities; banks, shops and restuarants.
Architecturally there is something of a Festival of Britain style but overall it has a feel of a pre-war design that was dusted down and I suspect that the Southern Railway, who pre-nationalisation ran Southampton's Docks, may have had a design that was delayed by war. There is a certain restraint in terms of design shown here - but very plush and quite corporate. I like that very corporate look that includes all the service areas, shops and banks.
I quote R P Biddle, the Docks and Marine Manager of the Transport Commission - "there is a streamlined efficiency about the operations which the ocean passenger of today rightly expects and which instantly creates a favourable impression". Oddly no architect is credited.
But it was all very commodious and in pre-jet aviation days it was one of the ports of entry or exit to the UK and I wonder how many passengers waved hello or goodbye to people standing on the liner-like decks of the building over the years.
As liner traffic decreased in the 1960s the Terminal saw less and less use and was finally closed in 1980 and sadly, amidst some protest, it was demolished in 1983. A shame really as within a decade Southampton was busy again with cruise ship traffic and my, would not this building restored have made quite the sight?
