Two new additions to my collection are the Schopf F59 aircraft tractor/pushback tug, and a Truck Firefighting Airfield Crash Rescue 2 Tonne 6x4 Mark 2, Range Rover (TACR2).
The Schopf F59 is a 1:76 scale, 3D printed model by Ray Rimes. The F59 is an all wheel drive, medium aircraft tractor, apparently designed to manoeuvre narrow body regional aircraft. I have added a set of chocks and a fire extinguisher, glazed front and back and painted.
The Range Rover TACR2 is a diecast model by Oxford, also 1:76 scale. Originally bearing military VRM plates, and with “Royal Air Force” on the sides, an RAF roundel and Union Flag on the rear. I removed these with cotton buds and nail polish remover. I added the thin yellow line along the sides, painted the blue warning light orange, added two blue warning lights and applied civilian VRM plates (which in reality belong on a minibus). This will primarily be found as part of the Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) team on the Barra layout.
This means my airport support vehicle/equipment collection now consists of - Two tractor tugs, two tow bars, one ground power unit, and one ARFF TACR2.
This weekend, the students of DePauw University will unite with a tremendous display of campus support for the 2005 Special Olympics Indiana Women's State Basketball Tournament. Thirty-eight Special Olympics Indiana basketball teams will compete Saturday and Sunday, March 12 and 13 in state championship competition at the University's Lilly Physical Education and Recreation Center. The event takes place, in part, thanks to the support of the Finish Line® Youth Foundation.
"DePauw basically adopts this event and does the nuts and bolts to make it happen," said Scott Mingle, assistant director of sports management for Special Olympics Indiana. "The students do so much, from getting tables and special olympics logo.gifchairs in place to providing volunteers to run registration and serve as court captains, timekeepers, scorers and announcers. They house Special Olympics athletes, throw parties for the teams, and ensure that the athletes experience this as a big-time tournament."
Thirty-eight teams consisting of 382 players will compete Saturday and Sunday at the annual state championship -- the world's largest Special Olympics women's basketball tournament. Athletes range in age from nine to 61.
Tournament competition includes rounds of play in 10 divisions organized by team ability level. Prior to competing in the state tournament, all teams completed a required minimum of eight weeks of training and played at least two games within the Special Olympics Indiana basketball program. All state tournament games will play on the courts of the main gymnasium at the Lilly Center.
Declaration of 4,000 MPs, including majorities of 30 parliaments
Moreover, a deceleration by over 4,000 MPs from 40 countries across the globe in support of the Iranian Resistance and especially Ashraf residents was unveiled at the gathering. The MPs, including the majority of the European Parliament, the majority of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and majorities of 28 national parliaments, called for the urgent protection of Ashraf by the UN, U.S. and EU, the immediate lifting of the siege on Ashraf – especially ensuring free access to medical services – and an impartial, comprehensive and independent investigation into the crimes committed on April 8th in Ashraf
In a large and exhilarating gathering held in the Villepinte Auditorium near Paris on Saturday afternoon, 18 June 2011, Iranians called for the immediate protection of Ashraf by the UN with assistance provided by the U.S. and EU. They also condemned any kind of displacement of Ashraf residents inside Iraq, and declared their support for Europe’s peaceful long-term solution for Ashraf. The participants described maintaining the terrorist tag against the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) by the US State Department as an illegal measure and tantamount to participating in the repression of the Iranian people and Resistance. The attendees called on the U.S. government to comply with last July's verdict of the U.S. Court of Appeals in D.C. and immediately revoke the PMOI's terrorist designation.
Hundreds of prominent politicians and MPs representing a broad range of political views from countries in five continents of the globe also took part in the largest gathering of its kind by Iranian exiles. In addition to expressing their support for the Iranian Resistance and defending Ashraf’s rights, the high-profile dignitaries also called for the recognition of the National Council of Resistance by the international community
Rudolph Giuliani, former New York City Mayor and Presidential Candidate (2008); US Congressman Bob Filner; Rita Sussmouth, former Speaker of the German Parliament (1988-1998); Judge Michael Mukasey, former US Attorney General (2007-2009); Ambassador John Bruton, former Prime Minister of Ireland (1994-1997) and EU ambassador to the US (2004-2005); Jean-Pierre Brard, Member of French National Assembly; Andrew Card, White House Chief of Staff of President George Bush (2001-2006); Tom Ridge, first US Secretary of Homeland Security (2003-2005); Alejo Vidal Quadras, European Parliament Vice President; Geir Haarde, former Prime Minister of Iceland (2006-2009); Lord Corbett of Castle Vale, Head of the Labour Peers group in the House of Lords; Nariman al-Rousan, Member of Jordanian Parliament; Aude de Thuin, author and founder of the Women Forum; Sid Ahmed Ghozali, former Prime Minister of Algeria; Robert Torricelli, former U.S. Senator; Carlo Ciccioli, Member of the Italian Parliament; Jean-Charles Rielle, Member of the Swiss Federal Parliament; and Henry Leclerc, Honorary President of the Human Rights League of France.
A number of French mayors, including Jean-Pierre Béquet, Mayor of Auvers-sur-Oise; Nelly Rolland, Mayor of Villepinte; and Maurice Boscavert, Mayor of Taverny, delivered speeches and declared the support of 5,000 French mayors for the Iranian Resistance.
The ceremony was held on the eve of June 20th, the Day of Martyrs and Political Prisoners in Iran. The master of ceremony for the first part of the event was Congressman Patrick Kennedy, Member of US House of Representatives until 2011. David Amess, Member of British Parliament from the Conservative Party, took over the event for the second part.
While being accompanied by Mrs. Rezaii (the mother of 7 martyrs), Mahin Saremi and a number of French MPs, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi honored the memory of 120,000 martyrs of the Iranian people, who have fallen during the three decade struggle against the clerical dictatorship, including the martyrs of the past two years and those who lost their lives as a result of the recent criminal attack against Ashraf.
Mrs. Mahin Saremi, the wife of PMOI supporter Ali Saremi, also took part in the gathering. Ali Saremi was Iran’s most prominent political prisoner and was hanged last year by the Iranian regime after enduring 24 years of imprisonment and torture. Mrs. Saremi, who herself was arrested and imprisoned several times since the 1980s, was recently condemned to 10 years of imprisonment but managed to flee from the Iranian regime and reach Paris. Akbar, the son of Ali and Mahin Saremi, is among the residents of Ashraf.
Wednesday fortnight, my disability support worker and I head out on photography adventures. This Wednesday we travelled about an hour out of Melbourne to O'Brien's Crossing picnic area which is a great starting point for many of the hiking trails in the park.
Around 5pm a person arrived and headed straight to a small pool for a dip after his working day. The weather was around 17 degrees Celsius, so the water must have been very cold!
We tried doing the East walk but had to turn back after 20mins due to numerous massive log jams blocking the narrow path. I'm not that adventurous, so after climbing over two blocks, did not want to try scrambling over the next.
I have a Ko-fi account* to raise funds to finally buy a waterproof camera (and 85mm lens for all of the events I've got lined up in January/February) and have been able to buy the lens already with the support I've received. I took the close ups of the river at the end of the day with it and whilst it is definitely not a macro lens by any means and not what I bought it for, I am very pleased with the detail and depth of colour it produces.

Verdi 15 Occupata. Un'esperienza di vita, un progetto di lotta.
All’Università di Torino, lo scorso anno (anno accademico 2011-12) studenti esterni alla Regione e meritevoli hanno vinto, con regolare domanda e graduatoria, posti-letto e borse di studio gestite, come da decenni ormai, dall’EDISU, l’ente regionale del Piemonte per il diritto allo studio. Peccato che questi posti, queste borse di studio, non si siano mai concretizzati: l’EDISU, in grave crisi economica per i terribili tagli voluti dalla Regione Piemonte, ha tagliato quei posti e non ha concesso quelle borse. E gli studenti, in mezzo a una strada, si sono mobilitati. In Via Verdi 15, a Torino, c’è stata fino all’anno scorso una residenza universitaria da 200 posti letto per studenti fuori sede, e doveva chiudere. Gli studenti hanno iniziato una bella esperienza di autogestione, trasformandola in “Verdi 15 occupata” e sostituendosi alle istituzioni che volevano chiuderla e renderla un fantasma.

Day 8 of The Gratitude Project- Today I am grateful for support. There are certain people in my life that I know I can rely on no matter what. I know I can always turn to them when I need a shoulder to cry on, when I need advice, or when I need moral support to chase after my dreams. I am so grateful for their consistency in always being there for me, and I love when I have the opportunity to return the favor. A little ice cream therapy always helps to make things better too. :)
When planning the precise and delicate procedure to remove a brain tumor, a neurosurgeon needs to know the exact location and dimensions of the invasive growth and the surrounding tissue. Because of the brain’s intricate network of neural pathways, altering one spot can adversely affect a patient’s speech, vision, mobility and cognition.
Nagarajan's lab specializes in detailed, high-fidelity brain imaging using magnetoencephalography (MEG), a quick, noninvasive procedure that measures the brain’s electromagnetic signals to visualize how things work inside.
