SU-100 (SU = СУ – самоходно-артиллерийская установка) byl sovětský stíhač tanků, postavený na podvozku tanku T-34 konstrukční kanceláře Uralmašzavod, jako přímý pokračovatel modelu SU-85, z důvodu nedostatečné kapacity proti novým německým těžkým tankům. Sériová výroba SU-100 byla zahájena v Uralmašzavodu v srpnu 1944 a pokračovala, podle různých odhadů, až do března 1946. V letech 1951–1956 byl licenčně vyráběn v Československu pod označením SD-100.

Life
Heinrich Maier on 9 October 1926 entered the Vienna seminary and enrolled in the same year at the University of Vienna, where he studied theology until 1928. 1928 changed Maier, instead of the diseased fellow student Franz Loidl (see BBKL XXII, 1993), to the "Pontifical Collegium Germanicum et Hungaricum" at the Gregorian University in Rome, where he studied scholastic philosophy. (One of his former Mitkommilitonen (fellow students) was the later Archbishop of Vienna, Cardinal DDr. Franz König.) On July 6, 1929 Maier completed his studies in Rome with the addendum of "bene probatus", his doctorate"(Laurea) c[um] laude prob[atus]" he received according to Matrikeleintrag (register entry) on 16 July 1930. During his studies he became a member of he Catholic fraternity K.Ö.St.V. Nibelungia in the ACA.
On July 24, 1932 he was ordained a priest. In 1935 he became a deacon in the parish church Gersthoferstrasse. Since 1936 he was also active as a religious teacher, he taught at the Industrial-Technical Federal Educational Establishment Mödling, later in Vienna at the grammar school of "Albertus-Magnus-Schulwerk" of Brothers of Mary in the 18th district. Maier was praeses of the Marian Congregation of children. This one "fascinated by charisma and enthusiasm, he disposed of high intelligence and research-based education, was interested in art and politics, and felt internally to his home country strongly connected. Sociability, coupled with a warm and open personality opened him many friendships across all strata of society; however, his special attention was given to the care and upbringing of children and young people to be independent and responsible persons; the dealing with them was easy and companionable... "(BBKL XXVII).
1938 Maier lost his job as a teacher too, but he deepened his theological studies and he gratuated in July 1942 (second doctorate - Theology).
Maier was very involved in the resistance against the Nazis. On the basis of his conviction, the Catholic faith and the Austrian patriotism, he was a resistance fighter who ultimately did not rule out militant means to defeat the Nazi regime. Together with the Tyrolean resistance fighters Walter Caldonazzi and Franz Josef Messner, the Director General of the Semperit plants, he founded the resistance group Maier-Messner-Caldonazzi. The aim of the group was there as quickly as possible to bring about the end of the terror regime by a military defeat and to realize the re-establishment of a free and democratic Austria. The group, inter alia, took care of the collection and dissemination of information about locations, employees and productions on Nazi armaments factories to the Allies. This information for targeted Allied bombing was passed partly through intermediaries in Switzerland to the British and Americans. The project of the resistance group Maier-Messner-Caldonazzi to bring an American transmission system of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) from Liechtenstein to Austria, but failed.
The group was gradually arrested. In the national court hearings on 27 and 28 October 1944 a total of eight death sentences against Henry Maier, Walter Caldonazzi, Franz Josef Messner, Andreas Hofer, Josef Wyhnal, Hermann Klepell, Wilhelm Ritsch and Clement of Pausinger were imposed. He was charged with "conspiracy to commit high treason" by "participation in a separatist networking".
Caldonazzi was beheaded in January 1945 in the Regional Court of Vienna and Messner gassed in April 1945 in Mauthausen concentration camp. Henry Maier was arrested on 28 March 1944 by the Gestapo in his parish Wien-Gersthof in the sacristy after Mass and then brought to the prison in the former Hotel Metropol on Morzinplatz and in the Mauthausen concentration camp. He was tortured for months until his execution, but gave away nobody.
In the presence of the myrmidons, which then led him to the scaffold, he gave his last Mass in the parish church Gersthoferstrasse. Kaplan Heinrich Maier was on 22 March 1945 beheaded in the Vienna Regional Court, the last execution day before the invasion of the Red Army in Vienna.
1949 in Vienna Waehring (18th district) the Dr. Heinrich Maier-street was named after him.

And we're live! After a few weeks of scanning, editing, tweaking, and fine tuning, I'm happy to announce that I've launched my first three packs of vintage paper textures.
These 15 textures include ink smears, stains, creases, folds, and all sorts of grit accumulated through the years. The set has been carefully scanned in from a late 1800s typography reference book.
A bit of technical data:
- At least 7,880x4,990 pixels
- Scanned in at 1,200 ppi
- Complete pack file size: 404 Mb
Don't miss out on this great launch celebration: this texture pack is available as part of Design Cuts current bundle, "The Essential, Creative Design Arsenal" - http://www.designcuts.com/design-cuts-deals/essential-design-bundle
You can have a peek of what's in the pack in the attachments.
Finally, note that there are two other paper textures packs captured from the same booklet!

The inaugural Saturday Social last Saturday 18th August at Cathays Social Club.
I played the opening set between 19.30 to 20.30 where not a soul danced but as soon as I'd finished my set, everyone was lubricated enough to venture onto the dancefloor.
Gareth the organiser has only just invited me to play the next one which falls on September the 15th, he's also offered me a later slot so that may be a challenge to get folk dancing.
If you use Facebook, the events page is here . If you don't have a facebook account and still want to keep up with it, I will be posting and tweeting the details of the next one as it gets closer.
For those that don't know,
