It took a baby-faced Marc Leishman less than 18 holes to feel welcome at Commonwealth Golf Club.
For a promising and humble teenage amateur from country Victoria, nothing was intimidating about one of the most revered clubs on the Melbourne Sandbelt.
Well, aside from the approach shots.
But in the early 2000s, Leishman was being courted by several high-profile clubs in Melbourne. He wanted to test himself in the city's elite pennant competition, and Melbourne clubs wanted him on their team.
But when Leishman and his father Paul teed up in a Saturday competition at Commonwealth, they were hooked.
"I remember when I got to Commonwealth, I wasn't sure where I was going to join," Leishman tells Australian Golf Digest.
The difficult 11th hole with the cheeky par-3 ninth just beyond.
From a playing perspective, it isn't hard to see why Leishman – or anyone who sets foot on this classic Melbourne Sandbelt course – feels welcome. The first hole is a prime example.
A beautiful, sweeping, downhill short par 4 measuring just 294 metres from the tips eases a golfer into the round. With true Sandbelt bunkers lining either side of the fairway and a small green, a birdie 3 can be made as easily as a 7.
In fact, short par 4s and 3s are the heroes at Commonwealth. For the two-shotters, the tricky fourth and diminutive 17th stand out. On both holes, placement is everything and, fortunately for right-handers, the right side is where you want to be. On the 339-metre fourth, a green sloping aggressively left to right demands a lofty approach to hold the green. On the 303-metre 17th, attacking the tiny green from the right side of the fairway ensures the putting surface is actually visible. If your tee shots finds the left side of the fairway, be prepared to hit a high draw from a blind position.
While the slightly doglegging par-4 16th is Commonwealth's signature hole, this writer was far more impressed with the wonderful par-3 ninth and its glamorous counterpart at the 15th. The ninth measures just 133 metres from the back but can be feast or famine with a severely sloping green surrounded by deep bunkers.
Similarly at the 15th, which maxes out at 147 metres, bunkering leaves the golfer feeling intimidated yet confident of getting it close with a solid strike using a short iron. Particularly impressive at the 15th is how big a portion of the long, cavernous sand trap in front of the green is hidden from the tee by the native vegetation.
The 12th hole begins a stretch of true tests at Commonwealth.
In October, Commonwealth welcomed John Mann to the club to take over as course superintendent. Mann arrived at Commonwealth with a fabulous reputation consolidated during his tenure as super at the highly regarded Woodlands Golf Club.
Prior to Woodlands, Mann rose to be East course assistant superintendent at Royal Melbourne, where he was part of significant reconstruction projects and played key roles in preparing the Composite course for the 2011 Presidents Cup and 2013 World Cup.
At Commonwealth, Mann has been tasked with restoring some of the Sandbelt qualities. Mann says the first two projects are allowing golfers to play a variety of shots around the greens and restoring some of the native vegetation the Sandbelt is famous for.
"My mission is to enhance the golf course while staying true to the Sandbelt philosophy," Mann says.
"There are some really great green sites, but some of the tweaks we have made include rolling out shorter mowing sites around the green complexes. That allows a playability and variety of short-game shots that the Sandbelt is renowned for.
"Firm, tight lies promote a variety of shot options; from running the ball all the way up the pin or, if you've got the high lofted shot, that, too.
Commonwealth Golf Club is determined to get back to its roots and show off its best assets.
Recent course work at Commonwealth also included a portion of trees being removed to realign each hole with its original design intention.
Commonwealth has a wonderful habit for discovering and preparing players for major golf tours around the world. A simple stroll through the clubhouse is like a museum of Australian golf exports. You'll see Jarrod Lyle's name on the wall under the title 'club champion' for four consecutive years. Lucas Herbert, who enjoyed a breakout year on the European Tour in 2018, holds the course record (65), while photos of Commonwealth's victorious team from the 2004 division one pennants series shows a baby-faced Leishman standing beside teammate Lyle.
The winning pennant team of 2004 was packed with future tour stars.
The men's Port Phillip Amateur trophy – a 72-hole championship held across Commonwealth and Kingston Heath – boasts former champions such as Mike Clayton (1977, 1980), Brad Hughes (1987, 1988), Craig Spence (1994), Steve Allan (1995) and Scott Gardiner (1999).
"You had to be a good ball-striker to be there," Leishman says.
"The layout, I think, was very demanding. It's one of the longer courses on the Sandbelt and because of the (Legend couch) grasses, it played longer.
"You have to shape the ball both ways and it's a really fun course to play; that's a great combination. If you're not striking the ball well there, you've got no chance of going low; those Sandbelt bunkers are pretty penalising and the greens are fair, but reasonably severe, so you need to know where to miss it.
"You need to have all the shots; there are certain greens where you absolutely have to spin your approach into the slopes. I didn't just figure that out in competition; to go out there on a Tuesday night with a few balls and learn those shots was pretty good training for tour golf.
But Leishman says a warm and friendly membership base was the biggest positive he took out of his time at Commonwealth. In the mid-2000s, it was common to see Leishman taking a few balls out and developing the shot shapes he now flaunts on the US PGA Tour. It's still common to see Herbert practising relentlessly on the putting green when at home in Melbourne.
"The atmosphere around the club was fantastic," Leishman recalls. "All the members are really friendly and they did whatever they can to help you succeed. If you needed something, they did it for you… the culture is very good there, which makes it a cool spot (for tour players).
While Commonwealth doesn't receive the same plaudits given to nearby layouts such as Kingston Heath, Royal Melbourne or Metropolitan, the club has its sights on getting the most out of its divine Oakleigh South surrounds.
"The canvas is there," Mann says proudly of the course.
Designers: Sam Bennett (1921); Charles H. Lane (1926); Sloan Morpeth (1962); Kevin Hartley (1992); Geoff Ogilvy, Mike Clayton, Mike Cocking and Ashley Mead – OCCM (2006 and ongoing).
About: Commonwealth is a par 73 with an ACR of 74 and measures 6,380 metres from the blue tees.

Xbox One X News: 4K Game Updates, PS4 Pro sales, Microsoft on VR and a Halo Scorpio secret
Microsoft has announced a few interesting pieces of news regarding its upcoming Xbox One X console this week, starting with most notably the news from Mike Ybarra that Alpha ring members can now start preparing for the launch by downloading 4K content updates.
This functionality was announced during the Xbox live show at Gamescom in August.
Essentially you can transfer any of your Xbox One Enhanced games to the new console via external storage or network transfer.
This way you don't need to download everything on November 7th when you pick you your new console.
In addition to this, preparations for the Xbox One X launch are well underway at The Coalition, the devs behind Gears of War 4.
They've announced that they will be pushing One X enhancements for the game out alongside a new October map update later this month.
"As we prepare for the Xbox One X Enhancements coming this November (more on that in a second), the release of the October Map Drop will coincide with our Xbox One X Ready Update in late October", The Coalition announced in a post on its website.
The Xbox One X update will allow the game to support HDR assets, as well as allow the game to support full, native 4K resolution.
These updates are due to drop sometime during October – well before the console itself launches on November 7 next month.
Microsoft premieres Xbox One X, the world's most powerful console
Xbox One X was designed to be the best console to create and play games on, putting the greatest graphic fidelity in the hands of the world's best game creators to create true 4K games. Coming to all Xbox One markets starting Nov. 7, Xbox One X will retail for $499 USD and £449 GBP
The Xbox Scorpio was said to support "high-fidelity" virtual reality when it was announced at E3 2016, although not much has been heard about it since.
Although the PlayStation PSVR headsets haven't necessarily set the world alight, the unit, which many might consider more niche and for a limited crowd, has still shipped 1 million unit.
Now, for the first time in a while, Xbox has opened up about the possibility of VR on Xbox One X – but it doesn't sound like good news.
Speaking to Wired, Albert Penello, senior director of product management and planning at Microsoft explained why.
"We learned with Kinect and the Wii that just translating a typical game experience to VR is not a winning strategy.
"It's the oddball VR-specific stuff that makes it sing. It wasn't something we wanted to distract developers with this year."
While we don't want to put words into Penello's mouth, it certainly doesn't sound as though he believes it has mainstream appeal
He also did not feel the technology had mainstream appeal, retorting to Wired: "Is it a viable consumer product? For a certain size of audience."
It's worth noting that Penello hasn't ruled it out completely and the senior Xbox official did say that "there's still a tonne of experimentation in VR."
But we wouldn't hold our breath for any Xbox One X VR announcements anytime soon.
Xbox One Games with Gold October CONFIRMED
Here's the games you can download with Games with Gold in October
As alluded to before, there's less than one month to go until the official launch of the Xbox One X and Microsoft will sure be hoping it helps bridge the gap in sales with Sony's PS4 which has steamed ahead this generation.
Thankfully, Microsoft and Xbox One fans have been handed some slightly positive news from Lewis Ward, IDC Research Director for Gaming and VR/AR who was speaking to GamesTM in their latest issue.
Speaking about how well Xbox One X could do, Ward said:
"No, the XB1X won't be enough for Microsoft to catch up. It should give PlayStation 4 Pro a run for its money in 2018 in the United States and the United Kingdom, however.
"I'm projecting about four million XB1X consoles shipped from Q4 2017 through the end of 2018, and about five million PlayStation 4 Pro consoles shipped in the same timeframe.
"The way shipments break down globally, however, that implies a very tight race in the United States and the United Kingdom."
Although this is still a big win for the PS4 Pro, it doesn't perhaps reflect the price difference and actually implies that the years ahead could feature a much closer battle for supremacy between the two console makers.
Unocero
Xbox One X's cool Master Chief/Project Scorpio Easter Egg
Finally, for this week it has been that revealed that Microsoft is up to its old tricks once again, hiding a fun little Easter egg inside the Xbox One X, repeating the stunt that proved so successful with the Xbox One S last year.
The S featured a small Master Chief logo etched on the inside of the slimline Xbox console launched last year and in a similar fashion, Microsoft has included a little-hidden image inside the Xbox One X.
It's unlikely you'll ever actually see it yourself – unless you break it or void the warranty – but inside, etched onto the console's circuit board you'll find a little Halo Master Chief riding on top of a scorpion.
A wonderful homage to both the Project Scorpio codename Microsoft used and a clever play on words considering the Chief would occasionally use tanks in the games which were known as Scorpions

An auto glass shop has one primary function – to solve problems with windshields, and a good shop should be able to handle anything from a surface crack to a deep hole that requires the complete replacement of the windshield. Before you head to any particular auto glass shop in your local area though, make sure you know what your options are, and that there isn't a better alternative somewhere nearby.
The main factor that's going to be affected by this is the price, of course – the time for getting a windshield replaced isn't that much in most cases, and in the worst-case scenario (requiring a complete replacement) it shouldn't take more than three-four hours.
As for the price, it's not just about the local prices of the shop you're going to – it also matters quite a lot whether that shop works with insurance policies, and in particular the policy you're using for your car. You can easily get a list of auto glass shops supported by your insurance company by calling the company and asking them, but look into all of those shops and not just the first one – just because your insurance company works with a given shop doesn't mean it's automatically suitable for your needs.

FCMB Deepens Financial Inclusion, Opens Ultra-Modern Cash Centre At Ikorodu, Lagos
Data & Financial Inclusion	 333 VIEWS

First City Monument Bank (FCMB) has again proved its mettle as a customer-centric financial institution that cares for the comfort of its customers by opening a world class Cash Centre at Ikorodu, Lagos.
The ultra-modern Cash Centre, located at Oluwarotimi Adeola Street, Ori Okuta Junction, Off Isawo Road, Ajaguro-Owutu, Ikorodu, takes into consideration the convenience of residents and businesses present within Owutu and its environs, including the popular Ikorodu garage, Agric Junction and Haruna areas. The development, which is coming two weeks after the Bank opened another Cash Centre at Ipaja, a suburb in Alimosho local government in Lagos, is in line with the commitment of FCMB to bring financial services closer to the populace to deepen financial inclusion, especially in densely populated areas like Ikorodu where a large number of people desire excellent banking services.
The Cash Centre, which commenced operations on December 21, 2020, is powered by solar energy, and equipped with latest traditional and digital banking infrastructure that ensures convenient and secured financial transactions for customers in a relaxed and tranquil environment. This is in addition to the team of highly experienced staff deployed to attend to the needs of existing and potential customers of the Bank.
Speaking on the opening of the FCMB Cash Centre at Owutu, Ikorodu, the Managing Director, Mr. Adam Nuru, reaffirmed the commitment of the Bank to grow its network to meet the individual and business aspirations of its ever-increasing customer base across segments.
According to him, "this is another turning point in our commitment to ensure that Nigerians enjoy the very best of Banking experience from FCMB. We consider our presence at Owutu, Ikorodu as another great opportunity to further cement our relationship with Lagos and in turn, drive development in this part of the state. Ikorodu is one the fastest growing residential and business hubs in Lagos. As an inclusive lender, we recognise that the only way we can succeed is when we engage and support our customers to succeed.".
Also commenting, the Divisional Head, Service Management of FCMB, Mr. Oluwakayode Adigun, said, "having a second physical outlet in Ikorodu to support our long existing Branch in the town reinforces our customer-centric approach. We assure that individuals and businesses at Owutu and its environs will enjoy the valued-added offerings which FCMB has been known for since its establishment 37 years ago. We will also use the opportunity to further optimise our strategic digital transformation drive by deploying channels that would promote rapid growth in the area. We urge existing and potential customers to take advantage of the benefits which the Cash Centre offers by banking with FCMB".
FCMB, as a foremost financial institution in Nigeria, has continued to wax stronger by re-engineering its processes and leveraging on emerging technologies to offer seamless customer experience at all channels. This is in line with its values of Execution, Professionalism, Innovation and Customer-focus (EPIC)". With its more than 6 million customer base, over 200 branches spread across Nigeria and upward growth in overall performance, the Bank has consistently proved its mettle as a resilient and dominant player in the Nigerian financial services industry.
These strides have earned the Bank several accolades and awards. The Bank recently emerged as winner of the prestigious award of Best SME Bank in Africa at the Asian Banker Middle East and Africa Regional Awards. In 2019, the lender was conferred with the award of "Most Business-Friendly Bank" at the BusinesDay Banking and Finance Awards.

The troubled multimillion-rand Qumza Highway construction project in Mdantsane is back on track with a new company hired by Buffalo City Metro to resume the work. Initially, the project was budgeted at R117m. However, BCM spokesperson Samkelo Ngwenya told the Daily Dispatch the new contractor, Stefanutti Stocks, would be paid R269m.


The alt.fan.sailor-moon newsgroup (also known as afs-m) was established by Ken Arromdee on July 25, 1995, several months before the Sailor Moon anime began airing in English for the first time. Its subject matter is "Sailor Moon animation, manga, and merchandise."
I'd like to get this group out and propagated _before_ the US version of the Sailor Moon series starts up (which should be this fall). Sailor Moon is currently popular among Japanese animation (anime) fans, but the series is going to be dubbed and receive a merchandising push as big as the Power Rangers.
In the 1990s and into the early 2000s, afs-m differentiated itself from other community resources such as the Sailor Moon mailing lists for being a completely open forum for Sailor Moon news and discussion. Since the group was unmoderated, it had its share of spam and trolls, but also spawned many famous memes such as "Mamoru is Setsuna" and "Serena Gravey," as well as the group fanfic known as the "Otaku Wars!."
At its high point, particularly during the period when the Cloverway dubs were airing, afs-m would reach post-counts of hundreds per day. With the development of internet forums, however, and the general decline in the use of Usenet newsgroups, afs-m was no longer the resource it once had been.

Mike has more than 13 years experience as a web site designer and developer. In addition, he has been a bilingual instructor for over 8 years teaching everything from Microsoft Office (Production), Adobe Suite (Graphics and Video) to Scripting Languages.
In 2012, Mike became a MOS Certified Expert in both Office 2010 and 2013.
Great atmosphere, Great instruction. You're doing it right.
Mike did an excellent job... as someone who really wants to understand the under-workings of a resource or software, Mike definitely was that instructor. Introducing excellent tools and tips that related to the training (for those that want to explore more afterwards), he did not spend unnecessary time on such tangents. Very good skills to manage those situations.
Mike was an excellent instructor and managed to keep our attention throughout the course. I would highly recommend him and this course to anyone interested.
I was pleased to see that Accessibility was woven into the curriculum.
Very comfortable environment in which to learn.
The class was great. I was the only online student and Mike made sure I was just as engaged as the in-class students.
Mike went above and beyond with his presentation. He took one of our forms and went over it to demonstrate how to create it.
I was feeling very reluctant to take this course as I really struggle with Excel, but to my surprise I was able to keep up and follow along and gain SEVERAL new skills that will make my daily tasks so much easier. I will work much more efficiently. Instructor was FANTASKIC! So knowledgeable and made it FUN. That's what makes the difference. A great experience. I will be sending more of my co-workers to courses here! HIGHLY recommended.
Awesome / amazing instructor. Mike has an amazing knowledge of the subject matter and great teaching ability. He knows how to verbally say all the steps to complete the process.

Q: If condition in SQLCMD script in sql database project I created Sql Server Database Project in Visual Studio and i wonder if there is possible to use something like this
pre deployment script
:setvar Environment Production

post deployment script
IF '$(Environment)' = 'Production'
BEGIN
    ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
    AS
        SELECT Col1, Col2 FROM Production.database.dbo.Table1
    GO
END
ELSE
BEGIN
    ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
    AS
        SELECT Col2, Col3, Col4 FROM LinkedServer.Development.database.dbo.Table2
    GO
END

error is : Alter view must be the only statement in the batch.
or simplier version
ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
AS
IF '$(Environment)' = 'Production'
    SELECT Col1, Col2 FROM Production.database.dbo.Table1
ELSE
    SELECT Col2, Col3, Col4 FROM LinkedServer.Development.database.dbo.Table2
GO

error is : Incorrect syntax near IF. Expecting Select or With
any idea, what is your approach ?

A: There is a way to do this, but that info must first be prefaced with:
Don't      do      this!!
Your object definitions really need to be the same across all environments. Meta-data (as in config data) can be different, but not object definitions. Else you are setting yourself (not to mention the next unlucky person to take this over) up for failure. It is unmaintainable. There are differences in performance, functionality, and security between using a Linked Server and not using one. In your current setup, any QA done against this code is invalid as it isn't even close to testing the same thing in each environment.
BUT, it is understandable that there are environment-specific differences that need to be dealt with. In which case, you should have a different Linked Server definition in each environment. Don't need the Linked Server in one or more environments? That's fine, just create a "loop back" Linked Server that points at the Instance that it is currently residing in.

That said, you just need to bury definitions for objects requiring their own batch in an EXEC, such as the following:
IF ('$(Environment)' = 'Production')
BEGIN
    EXEC(N'ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
           AS
           SELECT Col1, Col2
           FROM Production.database.dbo.Table1;');
END
ELSE
BEGIN
    EXEC(N'ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
           AS
           SELECT Col2, Col3, Col4
           FROM LinkedServer.Development.database.dbo.Table2;');
END;

A: Can't you write it as:
ALTER VIEW [dbo].[vwTable]
    AS
        SELECT Col1, Col2 FROM $(Environment).database.dbo.Table1
    GO
You should be able to control the different columns too as I believe the command variables just implant text into the script before it runs.

A: You should use Procedure instead of View with a parameter for passing the environment. An ALTER VIEW statement must be the first statement of the batch, so you cannot use it in this way. Even if you somehow execute the ALTER VIEW statement, you will not be able to create a VIEW. As a view is a plainT-SQLand cannot understandSQLCMD` commands/variables.
The procedure may look like the one below.
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_Results_Based_On_Environment] (@pEnvironment varchar(50))
AS
BEGIN
    IF @pEnvironment = 'Production'
        SELECT Col1, Col2 FROM Production.database.dbo.Table1
    ELSE
        SELECT Col2, Col3, Col4 FROM LinkedServer.Development.database.dbo.Table2
END
GO

A: Its not exactly what i wanted to do but it also helped me to solve the issue.
It is possible to include files, but i need manually comment/uncomment specific lines before publish.
:r .\included\production.views.script.sql
--:r .\included\development.views.script.sql

also the file can contain many GO statements.

Q: Disconnect all user connections on an RDS Oracle DB So I have an AWS RDS server instance configured with an oracle database, and I'm trying to forcibly disconnect all connections for a given user so I can drop that user and re-create the user and it's schemas.
According to the AWS RDS documentation, instead of using
ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION ' sid, serial#' immediate

We're supposed to use
exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(sid, serial#)

See Amazon's documentation here
so, I've tried both of the following ways to get kill all connections, and neither of them work:

BEGIN
  for session_to_drop in (select 'exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill('|| sid ||',' || serial# || ')' command from v$session where username in ('SCHEMA_NAME'))
  loop
    dbms_output.put_line(session_to_drop.command);
    execute immediate session_to_drop.command;
  end loop;
end;

Error report -
ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
ORA-06512: at line 5
00900. 00000 -  "invalid SQL statement"
*Cause:
*Action:
exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(22,48087)

BEGIN
  for session_to_drop in (select sid, serial# from v$session where username in ('PERFLAB')) loop
    dbms_output.put_line('exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(' || session_to_drop.sid || ',' || session_to_drop.serial# ||')');
    exec rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(session_to_drop.sid, session_to_drop.serial#);
  end loop;
end;

Error report -
ORA-06550: line 4, column 10:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "RDSADMIN" when expecting one of the following:
   := . ( @ % ;
The symbol ":=" was substituted for "RDSADMIN" to continue.
06550. 00000 -  "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause:    Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:

Ideally these loops would loop through all of the present connections and kill each one; however, it seems like the exec command isn't recognized within the loop.
Has anyone else been able to solve this problem?

A: You don't use exec inside a PL/SQL block.  exec is a SQL*Plus command, it's not part of the SQL or PL/SQL language.  You just call the procedure in the loop
BEGIN
  for session_to_drop in (select sid, serial#
                            from v$session
                           where username in ('PERFLAB'))
  loop
    rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(session_to_drop.sid, session_to_drop.serial#);
  end loop;
end;

I would guess that you would want to lock the account before you kill the sessions in order to prevent the user from logging back in while you're in the process of killing sessions.

A: Using call instead of exec, worked for me (JDBC Connection).
i.e.
-- select username, sid, serial#, status, machine
-- from v$session where username is not null;

call rdsadmin.rdsadmin_util.kill(123, 45678);

Francis to end 'climate of fear' as NHS whistleblowing review begins
I raised concerns, made an error in judgement, was sacked, reported to the NMC and totally blacklisted, 75 job applications with no success. Would I whistle blow again, absolutely when it involved patient care, that is why I went into nursing. Managers should be held accountable and NHS money should not be spent on their excuses. If a trust has been seen to cover up. bully and harass and be down right corrupted they should be made to pay back the money spent on legal representation. Please Sir Robert do something about the length of time it takes the NMC to hear a case. Iv been waiting two years. If I committed a crime I would have been through the judicial system by now

Willis Carrier's slide rule, a circular calculating instrument, was patented in 1881 and manufactured by Kueffel & Esser. At the slide rule's core is a cylinder, or slide, containing a series of scales. Careful scale alignment yields the precision of a modern calculator. Carrier used this instrument to calculate dew point control, a breakthrough that was the foundation of his invention of modern air conditioning.
A group portrait of the engineers of Buffalo Forge Company includes Willis Carrier (bottom row, third from right) and his future business partner, J. Irvine Lyle (middle row, sixth from left). Carrier, Lyle and five fellow engineers would launch Carrier Engineering Corporation as an independent entity in 1915.
Buffalo Forge Company sells Carrier's "Apparatus for Treating Air" to the Chronicle Cotton Mills of Belmont, North Carolina, and applies it to the mill's fan-heater ventilating system. It was the first industrial "central station" humidifying system.
The textile industry was among the earliest and most enthusiastic adoptees of modern air conditioning. Here, buyers for New England Cotton work in a clean, efficient environment.
Willis Carrier's Rational Psychrometric Formulae brought science to what had been the often hit-or-miss design of air-conditioning systems, and in the process made Carrier an international name. The chart would be updated and reprinted regularly, serving as an essential tool to generations of engineers and remaining the basis of today's designs.
Almost from the start, air conditioning became an international phenomenon, with important installations of equipment designed by Willis Carrier reaching from North America to Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Central and South America.
Carrier achieves the first application of air conditioning in a residence for the Charles Gates mansion in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Carrier Engineering Corporation had talented engineers and bright prospects, but little capital. Promoting the business and booking sales were essential activities in the company's first few months of existence.
Carrier's installation of modern air conditioning at the International Arms and Fuse Company in New Jersey was representative of the sophisticated work that the company performed during World War I, drastically improving the efficiency of workers.
Carrier hires Margaret Ingels as America's first woman air-conditioning engineer, right around the time that the decision to allow U.S. women the right to vote was being debated by lawmakers. True to Carrier's pioneering spirit, she was the subject of several articles in national magazines and served on President Herbert Hoover's Conference on Home Building and Home Ownership in the late 1920s. Ingels also wrote Willis Carrier's biography, published in 1952.
This iconic photo of Carrier co-founder Alfred E. "Ned" Stacey shows him seated in the company's Newark, New Jersey, research laboratory shortly after its founding in 1918.
The Mechanical Weather Man authored his own book (with an assist from Carrier's president, J. Irvine Lyle) in 1919, demonstrating the benefits of Carrier's modern air conditioning in dozens of industries.
In 1922, Carrier unveiled the first centrifugal chiller, which opened the door to large-scale comfort air conditioning.
On the same day in 1950 that Carrier Corporation completed its 2,000th centrifugal refrigeration machine, Willis Carrier, Chairman Emeritus, visited the Onondaga Pottery Company in Syracuse, New York to inspect his first centrifugal, completed in 1922. The Chief found it in perfect working condition. This picture is thought to be among the last taken of Carrier.
New York City's "new" Madison Square Garden opened in 1925, employing Carrier centrifugal chillers to cool its patrons and produce a perfect ice surface for professional hockey.
With Carrier centrifugal chiller equipment in the basement, and air conditioning on the roof, the T.W. Patterson Building in Fresno, California, cooled floors two through seven for its tenants, becoming Carrier's first multi-story installation.
The construction of the Milam Building in San Antonio, Texas, included Carrier central air conditioning, making it the first skyscraper to install comfort cooling as it was built.
In March 1930, Carrier recorded the first sale of its window-sill-height Weathermaster units to the Superheater Company of East Chicago, Indiana, to air condition the second floor of a two-story building. In August, the California Bank of Los Angeles contracted for 490 Weathermasters to air condition its 15-story building. The U.S. Supreme Court was also cooled using 180 Carrier Weathermaster units.
The August 1931 Carrier Courier featured a picture of His Majesty, King Prajadhipok of Siam, with Willis Carrier and a number of company senior executives during the King's visit to Carrier's Newark facility. Since that day, Carrier has been a leading supplier of air conditioning to the people and industries of Thailand.
In 1931, the M.V. Victoria, a 13,400-ton Italian motorship designed to run from Italy to Egypt, became the first vessel to make its maiden voyage equipped with Carrier air conditioning.
From the first sale in 1907 of Willis Carrier's air-conditioning equipment to an international customer, the Fuji Silk Spinning Company of Yokohama, he and his company maintained close ties with Japan. Shown here in 1937, Carrier invited members of the Japanese Trade Commission to Newark Airport for a flight over the metropolitan area in a United Airlines Mainliner. United Airlines was once owned by United Aircraft Corporation, which later became United Technologies Corporation (UTC). UTC became the parent of Carrier in 1979.
When New York City organizers established a World's Fair committee in 1935, they adopted the motto "Building the World of Tomorrow" and set about attracting companies and technologies that provided for "individual fulfillment and human progress." Few fit this definition better than Carrier Corporation and modern air conditioning. The Fair opened in 1939 with nearly 1.3 million visitors flocking to the prominent "Carrier Igloo of Tomorrow" in the first 100 days. Inside the Igloo and in the adjacent Hall of Weathermakers, guests learned the steps involved in air conditioning, toured a modern food store using Carrier refrigeration, and viewed an exhibit with Carrier self-contained air conditioning.
With its air conditioning products focused on industrial productivity, Carrier worked tirelessly in support of Allied troops around the globe.
In 1942 Carrier marked the 20th anniversary of Willis Carrier's invention of the centrifugal chiller. The innovation famous for introducing the general public to air conditioning became, during World War II, a critical component in the efficient production of war materiel.

Engineered protein inspired by nature may help plastic plague

Cheap to produce and long to degrade, plastic was once a manufacturing miracle. Now, plastic is an environmental plague, clogging landfills and choking waterways. A Japan-based research team has turned back to nature to develop an approach to degrading the stubborn substance. Similar to how a protein binds to cellulose in plants or to chitin in crustaceans to initiate decomposition, an engineered protein is on its way to binding to plastic particles in an effort to more efficiently break them down.
They published their results on June 29 in ACS Catalysis, a journal of the American Chemical Society.
"Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is produced and used in large quantities in modern society due to its low cost and ease of processing," said paper author Ryota Iino, professor of the Institute for Molecular Science (IMS) in the National Institutes of Natural Sciences (NINS). "However, in recent years, from the perspective of realizing a sustainable society, the complete recycling of PET in industry and the removal of PET from the natural environment have become global issues. To resolve these issues, it is very important to understand how to degrade PET efficiently."
The researchers investigated and engineered an enzyme cloned from a library of genetic materials collected from nature. This enzyme — called PET2 — was found to facilitate the degradation of PET by accelerating the reaction between PET's chemical components and water.
Using single-molecule imaging analysis, the team found that the way the enzyme binds to the surface of PET actually limited the rate of degradation.
"We also revealed that by introducing positive charges on the surface of PET-degrading enzyme, the binding rate to the PET surface can be increased," Iino said.
The positive charges react favorably to the PET surface, so more of the enzyme can bind and more effectively degrade the PET. The researchers also found that while engineered PET2 showed high thermal stability and highest activity at 68 degrees Celsius — slightly lower than most residential kitchen ovens can go — it may be more effective at higher temperatures where PET's molecular bonds become more flexible and breakable.
"Our ultimate goal is to create a bacterium that can sense PET in the environment, move toward it, and degrade it," Iino said. Such a bacterium would then be able to turn the degraded PET into energy useful for other organisms, effectively acting as an automated recycling center for plastic. "In nature, chitin and cellulose are recycled in this way."
