Details
Typhoon provides the RAF with a multi-role combat aircraft, capable of being deployed in the full spectrum of air operations, from air policing, to peace support, through to high intensity conflict. It is currently employed on permanent ops in the Falkland Islands, UK QRA North and UK QRA South.
Britain, Germany, Italy and Spain formally agreed to start development of the aircraft in 1988 with contracts for a first batch of 148 aircraft – of which 53 were for the RAF – signed ten years later. Deliveries to the RAF started in 2003 to 17(R) Sqn who were based at BAE Systems Warton Aerodrome in Lancashire (alongside the factory where the aircraft were assembled) while detailed development and testing of the aircraft was carried out. Formal activation of the first Typhoon Squadron at RAF Coningsby occurred on the 1st Jul 2005. The aircraft took over responsibility for UK QRA on 29 Jun 2007 and was formally declared as an advanced Air Defence platform on 1 Jan 2008.
Initial production aircraft of the F2 Tranche 1 standard were capable of air-to-air roles only and were the first Typhoons to hold UK QRA duties. In order to fulfill a potential requirement for Typhoon to deploy to Op HERRICK, urgent single-nation work was conducted on Tranche 1 to develop an air-to-ground capability in 2008. Tranche 1 aircraft were declared as multi-role in Jul 2008, gaining the designation FGR4 (T3 2-seat variant), fielding the Litening Laser Designator Pod and Paveway 2, Enhanced Paveway 2 and 1000lb freefall class of weapons. Only a handful of F2/T1 aircraft remain, these will be upgraded to FGR4/T3 by the end of 2012. Tranche 2 aircraft deliveries commenced under the 4-nation contract in 2008, in the air-to-air role only. These aircraft were deployed to the Falkland Islands to take-over duties from the Tornado F3 in Sep 09. Currently, upgrades to Tranche 2 continue as part of the main contract, with air-to-ground capability expected in 2012.
A total of 53 Tranche 1 aircraft were delivered, with Tranche 2 contract provisioning for 91 aircraft. 24 of these were diverted to fulfill the RSAF export campaign, leaving 67 Tranche 2 aircraft due for delivery to the RAF. The Tranche 3 contract has been signed and will deliver 40 aircraft. With the Tranche 1 aircraft fleet due to retire over the period 2015-18, this will leave 107 Typhoon aircraft in RAF service until 2030.
Future weapons integration will include Meteor air-to-air missile, Paveway IV, Storm Shadow, Brimstone and Small Diameter Bomb. Additionally, it is intended to upgrade the radar to an Active Electronically Scanned Array.

Last Friday, 6 March 2015, saw the latest police community support officers (PCSOs) complete their training in preparation for beginning duty on the streets of Greater Manchester.
The occasion was marked by a passing-out parade at the Force’s Sedgley Park Centre.
The work of PCSOs complements and supports their regular police officer colleagues. They provide a highly visible and accessible uniformed presence in the heart of local communities, which is intended to improve the quality of life and offer reassurance to the general public.
Find your local Neighbourhood Policing Team.
Neighbourhood Policing is at the heart of Greater Manchester Police. We want Greater Manchester to be a better place to live, work and play.
It is about putting people at the heart of what we do, really caring and having a strong working relationship with our communities. It is about having the right people in the right place at the right time tackling everything from anti-social behaviour and burglary to terrorism and organised crime.
Greater Manchester Police is divided into geographical areas known as Divisions. Each of these divisions has a number of Neighbourhood Policing Units, each of which is managed by a Neighbourhood Inspector. These units have specific areas of responsibility and consist of smaller, localised, Neighbourhood Policing Teams which include your local police officers and Police Community Support Officers.
These Neighbourhood Policing Teams are focused on your needs. They have regular meetings where you can help set the priorities for your community. You can also find out who your local officers are and read about policing news from your area.

Italy's iron-fist dictator Benito Mussolini offers his full support to Hosni Mubarak and his regime.
(On Feb 4th Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian prime minister, has described Egypt's president as a "wise man" and called for continuity in the country's government.
"I hope that in Egypt there can be a transition toward a more democratic system without a break from president [Hosni] Mubarak, who in the West, above all in the United States, is considered the wisest of men and a precise reference point," he said.)

Australia was approaching its bicentennial celebrations, and after Brisbane’s success hosting the 1982 Commonwealth Games, Brisbane City Council and the Queensland State Government were confident they could win the bid to hold the next World Exhibition.
Brisbane won the right to hold the event and Expo 88 was officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on 30 April 1988. By the time it closed, it had changed the way the world saw Brisbane and helped shaped the city as we know it today.
Starting with an estimated budget of $645 million, the Queensland State Government developed a World Expo that would recoup and support its own costs and promote international investment in Queensland, both during and after the event. South Bank, badly damaged in the 1973–74 floods, was chosen and the site acquired for $150 million. Developers completed construction on time and within budget. The targets set for ticket sales were reached 11 weeks before Expo 88 had even opened. It was off to a smashing start.
Celebrating ‘Leisure in the age of technology’, there was an incredible range of pavilions, performances, parades, comedy and artwork on show. Guests could experience over 50 restaurants filled with flavours from around the globe. Hosted over six months, it drew more than 18 million people to the renewed South Bank parklands district. An average of 100,000 people a day entered the gates.
An influx of royalty, celebrities and international visitors came to Brisbane for the exhibition, but it was Queensland residents who attended the most often, purchasing 500,000 season tickets. Expo 88 provided something the city needed: an easy-to-access recreational facility with exciting things to do, see and experience. Brisbanites returned again and again to socialise and enjoy the festival atmosphere.
The monorail was one of the most popular attractions. Giving travellers a view of the entertainments from above, it operated along a 2.3-kilometre track during Expo 88, taking up to 44,000 visitors a day from one side of Expo to the other, along the Brisbane River. Built by Swedish manufacturer Von Roll, the monorail cost $12 million and comprised four MkII trains with nine carriages each. The idea of keeping the monorail operating after Expo and extending it into the Brisbane CBD was discussed. Ultimately, the existing monorail wasn’t a feasible long-term people-moving solution and it was disbursed. Three trains were sold back to Von Roll and were used in Germany’s Europa-Park. The remaining train and some tracks were incorporated into the Sea World theme park on the Gold Coast.
Some of the most significant installations, exhibitions and artworks from Expo 88 were relocated and continue to be enjoyed today. Ken Done AM, a prominent Australian artist and designer, was commissioned to produce the entry and exit statement art pieces for the Australia Pavilion. Using the word ‘Australia’, Done produced a sign nearly six metres tall that could not be missed by anyone who attended Expo 88. The letters have since been restored and are on display at the Caboolture Heritage Village. The Nepal Peace Pagoda was the only international pavilion that remained on-site, after a petition asking that it remain attracted about 70,000 signatures. The Japan Garden and Pond were gifted to the city of Brisbane and moved to the Botanic Gardens at Mt Coot-Tha.
The buzz of activity, the investment in South Bank’s infrastructure and the spotlight on Brisbane transformed the city. The physical legacy left by Expo 88 turned South Bank into a thriving social space and prominent cultural hotspot: 42 hectares was dedicated to the construction of the South Bank Parklands.

Republican Senators supporting legislation by U.S. Senators Claire McCaskill and Kirsten Gillibrand to curb sexual assaults on campuses today took center stage at an event to rally support for the bipartisan bill.
“We’ve taken huge steps forward over the past two years in crafting this bipartisan, commonsense plan—but students on campuses across this country can’t wait any longer for us to act on it,” said McCaskill, a former prosecutor of sex crimes. “This legislation reflects the input of countless survivors, universities, advocates, and law enforcement officials. We’ve got a smart policy solution that helps curb these crimes, increases responsiveness when crimes do occur, protects and empowers students, and creates an accountable system with real teeth. Even at a time when it’s hard to get much done around here, I’m confident these are solutions that my colleagues in the Senate can agree on, and I look forward to working with them to get this across the finish line. It’s time to get this bill passed.”
McCaskill and Gillibrand were joined by Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, Senator Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa, Senator Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri, Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon, Senator Jack Reed of Rhode Island, Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island. The Senators were also joined by advocates Andrea Pino and Annie Clark of End Rape on Campus.

We pop champagne cause we're thirsty!
Year One Project 365 is complete! With a few late posts and missed counted two days, this year has been a blessing nevertheless. I didn't think I was going to make it through the year, so I would like to thank my beautiful wife Jodi, family and friends for the support and viewing all the pages to keep me going.
It's amazing to see his daily progress with something new everday. Each day you see more of his personality pop out. Always smiling, always sick, exploring everything within reach, his good looks, his curious mind evolving....it's hard not to love this little man.
This year we have celebrated a couple of births, Ellysia (Dom's godsister/first girlfriend), Mia (Tessa's Daughter) and the preppin for Gondica's little bundle to show up. With life, we have gone through three deaths, his great grandmother, my dad's godbrother, and my dad's godfather.
Within the first year, Dominik did so much more than I did. He went on numerous flights, his first plane trip at three weeks to see family in the bay area and then off to South Tahoe/Nevada for Katalia and Matt's wedding. To Colorado to see Aunty Manda, Uncle Brian, and Stampy. Also the countless trips to the bay area and back. He's also a huge Oakland A's fan and saw them with a game against the San Diego Padres. He loves going to the beach and pool. Visited Disneyland because Momma wanted to go. He started school at 3 1/2 months in the Bambini room at Aspirations School of Learning in Carlsbad.
Favorite foods: milkies, pears, cantaloupe, bananas, blackberries, cookies in the middle of dinner, broccoli, zucchini sauteed in olive oil and garlic, cheerios, gold fish, sweet potatoes, peas and carrots, cheeses, avacodo, beans, rice and pho. Tried lamb, buffalo, goat cheese, rabbit, liver pate....the list goes on. This boy is the first to start eating and last to leave the table. He got this trait from his grandfather Hoi, good thing we named him Dominik Hoi Tran.
We went through millions of diapers. Babies are hella expensive! Well worth it!
Now, onto YEAR TWO!
Funding for national team squad ahead of World Cup.
Scotland’s women’s national team squad will be able to train full-time for the FIFA 2019 World Cup with additional Scottish Government funding.
The financial support will allow those players in the national squad who are currently not professionals to train full-time from January ahead of the tournament in France.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon confirmed the funding at Hampden Park ahead of the Scottish Women and Girls in Sport Week.
We shadowed our friends at the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance en route to a mission in Kandahar. The team deployed to Afghanistan from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District and will be supporting engineering and infrastructure projects in Afghanistan for the next nine months. The men and women serving in the 553rd Forward Engineer Support Team – Advance are rare. There are only eight teams like them in the world; each comprised of one officer-in-charge, one non-commissioned officer and six highly-skilled U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian technical experts. From design, construction management, contracting, geospatial support and more, the teams quickly produce relevant engineering products and services worldwide.
Rally to Free Julian Assange and support the wikileaks website from government persecution arising from Cablegate - the progressive release of 250,000 US diplomatic cables, incombination with major newspapers. Protest gathered on the lawns of State Library in Melbourne at 5.30pm December 14. Julian Assange second bail hearing will soon be heard in a London Court.
The rally heard from Jacob Grech from Victorian Trades Hall, Adam Bandt, member for Melbourne and Assange's elected representative in Federal House of Representatives, a union official from the Media and Entertainment Alliance, Colin Jacobs from the Electronic Frontiers Australia, and Rob Stary, Julian's Australian lawyer.

John "JC" Carver, a payload integration engineer with NASA Kennedy Space Center's Test and Operations Support Contract, uses a FluorPen to measure the chlorophyll fluorescence of Arabidopsis thaliana plants inside the growth chamber of the Advanced Plant Habitat (APH) Flight Unit No. 1. Half the plants were then harvested.
The harvest is part of an ongoing verification test of the APH unit, which is located inside the International Space Station Environmental Simulator in Kennedy's Space Station Processing Facility. The APH undergoing testing at Kennedy is identical to one on the station and uses red, green and broad-spectrum white LED lights to grow plants in an environmentally controlled chamber. The seeds grown during the verification test will be grown on the station to help scientists understand how these plants adapt to spaceflight. Photo credit: NASA/Leif Heimbold
The wooden center bar is actually being supported by a block of wood that I glued together with Elmers Carpenter Wood Glue. All these pieces were leftovers from the cutting of the slats. The guy at Home Depot wanted to toss them out but I insisted I keep them. After all, they sell by the plank, not by the length. So there was no additional cost. My original intention was to use them as testers for the stain and finish. In the end, they were a life saver since I had nothing else to support the center of the bed.

Colombia’s Amazonas shares its borders with Peru and Brazil, 2 of the countries with the world’s highest number of coronavirus cases.
People cross the triple border on a regular basis, either for medical needs or to buying and selling all kinds of goods. This has contributed to spread the virus, bringing the total number of cases in the border areas to 10,200.
Before the pandemic hit, tourists used to visit the Amazonas’ markets to purchase handcrafts. Tourism was an economic lifeline, but confinement measures brought it to a halt.
