The 705th Tank Destroyer Battalion was a tank destroyer battalion of the United States Army active during the Second World War. It was originally formed from artillery elements of the 5th Armored Division, and its lineage is today perpetuated by the 75th Cavalry Regiment.

The battalion operated in northern France with Third Army in 1944, where it fought in Brittany at the capture of Brest, and then along the Moselle River, reaching Germany at the end of the year. During the Battle of the Bulge, it was engaged at the Siege of Bastogne along with the 101st Airborne Division, where it received the Presidential Unit Citation, and in the spring of 1945 it advanced through southern Germany with the 11th Armored Division, reaching Austria by the end of the war.

Early service
The battalion was formed in December 1941, around a cadre taken from the 58th Armored Field Artillery Battalion, part of the 5th Armored Division. It trained in California and Texas, equipped with M3 GMCs, before moving to Oregon in early 1943 and receiving the new M10 tank destroyer. Whilst at the Tank Destroyer Center in Texas, they were described by General A. D. Bruce as "the finest" tank destroyer battalion yet trained.

The battalion transferred to New York, and then boarded the liner Queen Elizabeth on 18 April for the voyage to the United Kingdom. It arrived in Scotland on the 27th, and set up camp in southern England on 1 June.

France
The battalion sailed for Normandy in July, and was landed at Utah Beach on the 18th, equipped with M18 Hellcat tank destroyers. After two weeks of being held in reserve, they were moved to the front line on the 31st and attached to a task force of Third Army which was assigned to capture the ports along the north coast of Brittany; it pushed through Avranches and turned westwards towards Brest; from 6 to 16 August B Company was attached to the 83rd Infantry Division. On 17 August, the battalion liberated the town of Paimpol, on the north coast of Brittany.

On 23 August, one company (B) was assigned to the 2nd Infantry Division, fighting in the Battle for Brest; it was released on 19 September. Meanwhile, the remainder of the battalion was employed fighting on the Crozon Peninsula to the south of the port through September. A shortage of the M18 Hellcat in the supply chain – most battalions in France were equipped with M10s at the time – led to the battalion being assigned a number of M4A3 Shermans, which carried the same 76mm gun, as temporary replacements.

The battalion regrouped in late September, and trained replacements, before moving to the Moselle River. The battalion was attached to the 95th Infantry Division on 15 October, and deployed to relieve the 818th Tank Destroyer Battalion in the Pagny bridgehead on the 20th. It withdrew from the bridgehead in early November, after providing indirect fire support, and was released by the 95th Division on 2 November. It crossed the Moselle again and moved northeast, crossing the border into Germany near Merschweiler on 18 November. The company A of the battalion crossed the Moselle near Malling when assigned to the 90th Infantry Division.

Ardennes

On 16 December, the Germans launched a major offensive throughout the Ardennes region of the Western Front, which would later become known as the Battle of the Bulge. The 705th, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Clifford D. Templeton, was ordered by Ninth Army to move south in the evening of 18 December, and join VIII Corps at Bastogne, a town on a critical road junction in the southern Ardennes. After delays to secure the town of La Roche, and a short engagement in which the command group was attacked, the command and combat elements of the battalion had fully arrived in Bastogne late on the night of 19 December. Templeton detached two platoons to hold a bridge at Ortheuville and a platoon to La Roche, and the supply and support elements were sent west, escorted by a single M18 and instructed to "hook up with some big friends".

A platoon was sent north from Bastogne on the early morning of the 20th to help relieve Task Force Desobry, defending the northeast approaches to the town. The platoon, accompanying a battalion of paratroopers, blunted the attack of the 2nd Panzer Division, destroying a number of German tanks. The battalion was formally attached to the 101st Airborne Division, the formation holding Bastogne, on 20 December, and was engaged throughout the siege, fighting a number of small actions. It provided a major part of the 101st's combat capabilities; on the 21st, the total armoured reserve available other than the 705th amounted to about forty operable medium tanks.

On the 24th, it was distributed between the 101st's regiments; a platoon to the 501st Parachute Infantry, two to the 506th Parachute Infantry, two to the 502nd Parachute Infantry and four to the 327th Glider Infantry, with one platoon deployed as a reserve in the town itself. On the 25th, Christmas Day, it was engaged in the thick of the fighting; an attack by eighteen Panzer IVs of 15th Panzergrenadier Division was broken up by M18s of the battalion. One half of the attack was caught in a close-range action by units of the 502nd PIR and a platoon of B Company; two M18s were knocked out at the start of the engagement, but the other pair quickly accounted for three Panzer IVs. The other half, meanwhile, was caught in a crossfire between four M18s, a group of M4 Shermans, a group of 105mm howitzers and infantry bazookas and destroyed.

Throughout the siege, the battalion destroyed around 40 German tanks, and lost only six M18s. The battalion remained stationed in Bastogne for the remainder of the Battle of the Bulge, being released by the 101st on 18 January, and withdrawn to rest and refit. The battalion would later be awarded the Presidential Unit Citation for its role in the defence of Bastogne.

Germany
The battalion was attached to Combat Command B of the 11th Armored Division, part of Third Army, on 24 February, and committed to action on 1 March. On that same day Lieutenant-Colonel Clifford D. Templeton, battalion commander, was killed in action. He was succeeded by Major John Dibble.

The battalion crossed the Kyll River on 6 March, and pushed towards the Rhine with the 11th Armored, fighting all through March. The 705th crossed the Rhine at Oppenheim on 29 March, and continued to advance across southern Germany in April, seeing action in a number of small engagements. The battalion liberated two prisoner-of-war hospitals and a large forced-labour camp, and late in the month arrived at the Flossenbürg and Buchenwald concentration camps.

The battalion crossed the border into Austria on 1 May, and linked up with Soviet Army troops on 8 May, the day that the German surrender was announced.

Postwar service
The battalion began occupation duties near Linz in June, and was inactivated in July. During its year in Europe, it lost 48 men, of whom 30 were killed at Bastogne, and received the Presidential Unit Citation.

The battalion's lineage is currently maintained by the 1st Squadron, 75th Cavalry Regiment (1–75 CAV).

Глеб Святосла́вич (убит ) — князь тмутараканский (1064 и 1066—1068 годы), князь новгородский (1069—1078 годы); старший сын великого князя киевского Святослава Ярославича.

Биография
Был посажен отцом княжить в Тмутаракани, но в 1064 году был изгнан оттуда двоюродным братом Ростиславом Владимировичем. Вернулся в Тмутаракань с помощью отца, однако вскоре Ростислав вновь изгнал Глеба, который сумел утвердиться на княжении лишь после смерти Ростислава в 1067 году. В 1067 году некоторое время был новгородским князем, однако после вокняжения Всеслава Брячиславича в Киеве вернулся в Тмутаракань, где, по свидетельству надписи на мраморном Тмутараканском камне, в 1068 году измерял по льду расстояние между Тмутараканью и Керчью (это древнейший известный пример проведения топографических и гидрографичесих работ на Руси).

После бегства Всеслава из Киева в Полоцк в 1069 году руководил новгородским ополчением, успешно защищавшим Новгород от войск Всеслава Брячиславича. В 1071 году подавил в Новгороде языческое восстание. Правил в Новгороде до 1073 года до вокняжения в Киеве своего отца Святослава Ярославича, который передал Глебу Переяславское княжество. После смерти отца и прихода к власти Всеволода Ярославича в 1077 году был вновь переведён в Новгород.

В 1078 году при появлении в Новгороде волхвов, призывавших народ к восстанию, по словам летописи, убил главного из них, после чего был изгнан новгородцами. Изгнание Глеба, по мнению И. Я. Фроянова, вероятно, было связано с большой опасностью для него. «Бегство Глеба из Новгорода — знак, говорящий о чрезвычайности обстановки, вынудившей правителя оставить город. Видимо, жизнь князя находилась под угрозой, идущей от новгородцев, обвинявших его в несчастьях (недороде плодов земных), которые постигли Новгородскую землю». Не получив помощи от других князей, Глеб Святославич бежал за Волок, где был убит чудью заволочской 30 мая 1078 года.

Похоронен 23 июля 1078 года в Чернигове. Предполагаемые станки князя Глеба (образец VK542) стали объектом научных исследований. По ним была определена Y-хромосомная гаплогруппа I2a (I2a1b2a1a-CTS10228>I2a1b2a1a1-Y3120/YP196>I2a1b2a1a1b-Y4460>Y3106>Y91535>Y91535*) и митохондриальная гаплогруппа H5a2a.

Тмутараканский камень
 В 1792 году на Таманском полуострове был найден камень с надписью: «В лето 6576 индикта 6 [1068 — Л. В.] Глеб князь мерил море по леду от Тмутороканя до Корчева 14000 сажен».

After a first day of arguments which was more like an exhibition season scrimmage, the U.S. Supreme Court now moves into the meat of the legal fight over the Obama health law, with two hours of arguments on the constitutionality of the individual mandate.
We saw some skirmishing in the court on day one, as several more liberal justices went to great lengths to defend the law in several situations, while more conservative justices were critical.
If you were reading the tea leaves on Justice Kennedy - considered "the" swing justice on this court - there really wasn't anything to go by on the individual mandate.
None of the justices fully embraced the idea that an obscure 19th century law should preclude the High Court from issuing a ruling on the individual mandate, as the first day was more of a high level legal symposium - a reminder that the people in this arena leave reporters like me gasping for air at times as they run through their legal arguments.
One thing that was interesting from the first day was how it looked outside of the Supreme Court - frankly, the turnout was not very big.
I've seen a lot more people for a variety of cases and causes outside the Supreme Court in years past - anything that involved abortion would bring many more people, so the crowd that was there seemed underwhelming to reporters and police alike.
Maybe it will be different on Tuesday, since the focus is on 'the' most controversial part of the Obama health law, the individual mandate.
"We feel very positive," said Attorney General Pam Bondi of Florida, who has led the 26 states challenging the Obama Administration on this law.
Bondi will be in the courtroom again on Tuesday, a day that has much more at stake for Republican critics of the health reform law.
Judging by how many times multiple Supreme Court Justices tried to enter the debate in arguments on Monday, we could be in for a treat on day two of this high stakes legal - and political - showdown.
The arguments begin at 10 am - I will be out hopefully right at 12 noon EDT and on the air a few minutes later with Neal Boortz to give you the latest.

Cercyon (Ancient Greek: Κερκύων, -ονος Kerkyon) was a figure in Greek mythology. He was a notorious King of Eleusis, famous for his cruelty towards his daughter, Alope, and anyone who refused to fight with him. Cercyon was described also as a very strong man.

Family
According to the different versions, Cercyon was the son of: (1) Poseidon and one of the daughters of Amphictyon, and accordingly half-brother of Triptolemus or (2) Branchus and the nymph (or naiad) Argiope and finally of Hephaestus. He had one child, Alope but in the Suda, Cercyon was called the father of a certain Ekphantos, ancestor of the epic poet Musaeus (Cercyon-Ekphantos-Euphemus-Antiphemos-Musaeus).

Mythology

Cruelty to a daughter
Cercyon's beautiful daughter, Alope, had an affair with (or was raped by) Poseidon. From this union, she begat a child which she gave to her nurse to be exposed, since she did not know its father. When the child was exposed, a mare came and furnished it milk. A certain shepherd, following the mare, saw the child and took it up. When he had taken it home, clothed in its royal garments, a fellow shepherd asked that it be given to him. The first gave it without the garments, and when strife rose between them, the one who had taken the child demanded signs it was free-born, but the other refused to give them, they came to King Cercyon and presented their arguments. The one who had taken the child again demanded the garments, and when they were brought, Cercyon knew that they were taken from the garments of his daughter. Alope's nurse, in fear, revealed to the King that the child was Alope's, and he ordered that his daughter be imprisoned and buried alive, and the child exposed. Again the mare fed it; shepherds again found the child, and took him up, and reared him. Feeling that he was being guarded by the will of the gods, they gave him the name Hippothous (Hippothoon). The body of Alope was then turned by Poseidon into a fountain, called by the name Alope, near Eleusis.

Death
Cercyon was said to have treated strangers wickedly, especially in wrestling with them against their will. He stood on the roads around Eleusis and challenged passers-by to a wrestling match. Other writers identified Cercyon as a robber who operated around Eleusis. The loser (always the passer-by) was murdered, though Cercyon promised his kingdom to anyone who won. In his fifth labour, journeying from Troezen, Theseus eventually beat and killed Cercyon when he lifted him up and dashed him to the ground. Theseus won owing to his skill, rather than superiority in brute physical strength. With this, Theseus started the sport of wrestling. In the account of Bacchylides, he alludes to the event when saying "Theseus has closed the wrestling school of Cercyon". The place associated with the story, known as the wrestling-school of Cercyon, was near Eleusis, on the road to Megara.

According to some, Theseus ravished Cercyon's daughters after taking over the kingdom of Eleusis. He then gave it to Hippothous, who came to him and asked for his grandfather's kingdom. Theseus willingly gave it to him when he learned that he was the son of Poseidon, from whom he claimed his own birth.

Kristin got an early start in communications, producing her first newspaper in elementary school and later writing for her high school paper. A undergraduate degree in English from Wake Forest University led to a grand adventure bartending, nannying, and traveling solo in Europe for a year, where she found enough material to fill several notebooks.
A Master's Degree in Public Policy from the University of Maryland followed. In the ensuing years, she delved into a wide range of health, education, and tax issues as a budget committee staffer in the Maryland General Assembly. Next stop was Montgomery College, where she worked in the President's Office on government relations and strategic communications.
This strategic communications work has been a central part of her career. She conceived and helped implement a number of advocacy plans, including one that led to a major campus expansion. Her portfolio includes policy reports and speechwriting, from inaugural addresses to "State of the College" remarks that garnered her an outstanding staff award at Montgomery College. Kristin assisted presidents with testimony, opinion pieces, and blog posts.
Kristin was proud to work with students to hone their own amazing stories and become advocates; that led to her New York Times story on the value of community colleges. The emails and comments from community colleges students across the country blew her away. It was a potent reminder that all people–no matter their backgrounds or stories–want to be seen, heard, and valued. Dr. Jill Biden called the piece "a must read."

During the pandemic, Kristin served as Vice President for Communications and Marketing at an economic development organization, where she worked on a campaign to tell the story of the thriving local and global life sciences companies choosing to call Montgomery County, MD home. She led communications and marketing for multiple pandemic grants, with over $22 Million awarded to thousands of restaurants, small firms and nonprofits. It was a time characterized by recovery, resiliency and results, and Kristin was proud to have been a part of it.
As a consultant, Kristin helps clients translate stories into communications that resonate with policymakers, donors and the public.
Her writing has appeared in Your Teen for Parents Magazine, The New York Times,The Washington Post, The Washington Post Sunday Magazine, McSweeney's, Barrelhouse, Grown and Flown, Scary Mommy and Bethesda Magazine, and has led to guest appearances on WBAL's morning show.


You can either go on sites for the most popular stuff posted by journalists for example the science and technology section of BBC News.
Or you could go on a forum like the ones on reddit where people post stuff they find interesting.
There are tons of technology sites publishing news every hour like verge and techradar but my personal favorite sources are hacker news and r/technology subreddit. I also have subscribtion of a mibbit irc private channel for such news.
Best is subjective. Tech news is also really broad, you won't find all the tech news in one place. There's countless websites, forums and YouTube channels dedicated to it.
Personally I use TheRegister and KrebsOnSecurity, however they have a larger focus on security rather than broad tech news. I watch TechLinked on YouTube but there's only so much they can cover.

Jerry began his musical pursuits in the late 70's as the bass guitar player for the rock band Ozone that he and his friends Chris Kane and Dan Herman formed as juniors in high school. From that beginning he played with various bands, mostly in the Heavy Metal genre -believe it or not! Though he played in heavy metal bands, Jerry was always country at heart. "I always loved country music", says Jerry. I enjoyed it as I was growing up when my mom and dad played it on the radio. I never told any of my friends that I listened to country because it would have 'ruined' my image as a 'rock star'". He continued, "I did some pretty wild things back then. I wore spandex pants, spiked arm bands, hand cuff belt, etc. I even shot flames out the end of my guitar for some awesome effects".
Jerry's first performance on a country stage came in 1988 at the True Value Country Music Showdown at the Tussey Mountain Ski Resort. Though he had never performed country music in public prior to the show, he placed 3rd in the competition! After the show he was approached by one of the judges, who happened to be a representative from MCA/Nashville records. Jerry was asked to develop some original songs and submit them to MCA for review. Though the opportunity was intriguing, he never pursued it. "I'll never forget the feeling I had when the judge approached me after the show", stated Jerry. "To say I was excited would be an understatement". When asked what happened Jerry explained "I guess it was just timing. I didn't have any contacts in the song writing industry, and I hadn't wrote any of my own songs. As time went on, life just kind of took over and I had to focus on making a living".
Although Jerry was inactive as a performer for the next few years, he never lost his love for music. "I met a musician from State College, Pa. named Tommy Wareham. He turned out to be one of my greatest friends and supporters. He inspired and encouraged me back into music". In October of 2000, Jerry videoed three country songs for the Fast Track To Fame and Sonic Records nationwide talent search competition. He was chosen "most marketable" by the Sonic Records label and offered a professional recording and promotion package. In September of 2001, Jerry made the trip to Winston-Salem, North Carolina and recorded the song "I Wonder If She Thinks Of Me". After the release of the song to radio, Jerry's first recording actually rose to #48 on the nationwide Indie (independent artist) chart! It stayed on the chart for 5 months! "I was so excited about the success of my first release!", Jerry said. "To have a song played on national radio was great, but to have it climb the charts because people wanted to hear it was a dream come true!". Since that initial success, Jerry traveled to Nashville in 2004 after signing with A.M.I. Records and recorded two songs "It's A Good Thing" and "If Only". On January 23, 2006, "It's A Good Thing" was released on the Lone Pine Records label to over 600 radio stations in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and various parts of Europe. 2006 will find Jerry in Nashville once again to record his first full-length CD. He has teamed up with songwriter/producer Tom Paden (Paden Place Music). Jerry comments "I'm very fired-up about working with Tom. He's a seasoned veteran in the music industry in Nashville, not only as a quality songwriter, but with the skills of a great producer, to help me bring quality music to my fans!".
Jerry's music career appears to be on an upswing, and with influences like George Strait, Merle Haggard, Steve Wariner, Tracy Byrd, and Brad Paisley, it seems he's now deeply rooted in country music. He formed his current touring band, North Country, in 2005 and played some great venues including the Clearfield County Fair, Centre County Grange Fair and Encampment, Relay For Life and Children's Miracle Network benefit shows, and a variety of other concerts in the U.S and Canada. Jerry also became very popular in Canada in 2005, as well as overseas in Australia, New Zealand, and Belgium. In 2006, Jerry won The Starliners Most Popular Indie Artist award. He has opened for such acts as the Marshall Tucker Band and Neal McCoy, and is looking forward to hitting the road in 2013, and meeting lots of new people. "I really feel this is the year to make some big things happen", Jerry said. The thing I love the most is meeting new people. I never miss a chance to honor our military veterans. I also enjoy talking with the children at my shows and try to influence them to dream big and not be afraid to chase those dreams!". We're sure you'll be hearing more from Jerry very soon..........

Mark Kos - Lead Guitar
I grew up in the small rural town of Soldier, Pa. There was not much to do there as a small boy and, being an only child, I almost always had to make my own entertainment. At the age of six, my father taught me 3 chords on the guitar. I must have been doing some good things with those 3 chords, so my parents encouraged me to take some lessons. I did that for 7 years. I would look out the window at my friends playing ball, or whatever, and I was stuck in a chair in my house practicing. The practice eventually paid off, and then I started playing by ear. I was in various bands in my teen years (none of which got out of the garage - Ha!). When I was in my twenties, some of the better bands were "Headhunter" and "Victim", all rock and hair metal. It wasn't until about 4 or 5 years ago that I started appreciating the sound of country music, so I joined a small local country band. I had a lot of problems trying to make the musical adjustments necessary to play that required country sound, but the guys in the band stood by me, giving me support and encouragement, until I got the desired sound instilled in me. I owe a lot to those guys (you know who you are!), Dale, Mike, and Terry - many thanks to you! The very first time that band played a gig, the singer was introducing the band and when he got to me he said: "Not even a year ago, this guy was all rock and metal, and you can say he turned over a new leaf, but I think he turned over the whole damned tree!". We all had a great laugh, and I thought it was priceless! One night about a year ago, I was at "Over The Mountain" kicking up a few jams when a guy came up on stage and started singing. I didn't know who he was, but he sure sounded good. He came to me afterwards and told me he liked my playing style and introduced himself as Jerry Schickling. He told me a little about what he was doing and, of course, it sounded very exciting to me! He asked me for my phone number, and almost a year later Jerry called me to ask if I'd be interested in playing lead guitar for him. Needless to say, I got an ear-to-ear grin on my face over the phone and said "You-betcha!". I'm extremely excited and honored to be a part of North Country! Each musician in the band is super talented and, when we are brought together as a whole, the sound is electrifying! I want to thank Jerry, Bill, Wild Bill, Greg, and Brenda for making me feel welcome, and to be part of something that is very close to my heart - making music that makes everybody feel good. By the way....thanks Dad! Jerry adds: "Bringing Mark to the band adds an ingredient that we were missing. The first time I heard him on the "Mountain" I knew he had an incredible gift for the guitar. His style, and the licks he was playing, captured my attention right away! Myself and the rest of North Country want to welcome Mark to the band, and thank him for choosing to be part of what we're doing!! We know you'll be impressed too!!
"Murph" Martell - Guitar/ Vocals
Murph (Gordon Martell), is a Clearfield Pennsylvania native... sang lead/harmony vocals and played lead guitar in local bands including Jagged Edge, Shyster and Double Shot, among others. His outstandingly diverse vocal ability will give ya goose-bumps, and his seasoned guitar licks makes ya go "whoa" ! "Hi folks! Murph here. Yes the rumor is TRUE! I have joined forces with Jerry and North Country. I feel that with the talent and our love for music, this band will produce some of the sweetest sounds that anyone could put an ear to. I would like to thank Jerry and NC for inviting us along on this endeavor. I would also like to thank all the M&T fans and supporters, inviting you to join in on a great thing about to unfold. See ya soon" Murph!!! Jerry: "What can I say? Murph joining North Country is an incredible step forward for me and the band! He not only brings his awesome guitar playing to our sound, but his vocals will bring out the best in my sound! I'm very excited to have him a part of North Country!"
Gary Bowser - Bass Guitar
Hi, Gary here! I'm the new guy in the band and I play bass. I'm from Reynoldsville and am retired from the Owens Illinois Closure Division, Brookville Plant. (The plant has since been sold to Rexam Corp. – see - I told you guys you couldn't do without me.) For the past several years I've been playing bass on the 3rd Weekend worship team at TCC. tricountychurch.net (You can see me standing on the far right on the webpage.) I also play with The Sounds of Swing, sponsored by the American Legion and directed by Jack Averill. In the past you may have seen me playing one of Ray Fitzgerald's "Tribute To Elvis" shows at the Jefferson County fair. I was watching TV one night when Jerry called looking for a bass player. Since playing bass is my main job these days I said I give it a shot. The rest, as they say, is history. I've been learning their songs one at a time. I've been Savin' It Up For Saturday night every Tuesday now for well over a month. Sometimes I forget a chord change but It All Comes Back To Me. Most of the time I'm 99.9% Sure. This band is 24/7/365! I'm glad I joined these guys because I don't want to have to say I Wish I Had or If Only. Now don't accuse me of being a Politically Incorrect Redneck just because I say Some Beach once in a while. Just come out to a show and introduce yourself and enjoy some great country music with us. Jerry: Gary brings bass playing experience and creativity (as you read in his bio) to North Country. We're very excited to have him join us on the road this year! C'mon out and meet him...we know you'll be impressed!!!

Nice game, played it on steam, loved it, nice skills, stuff, armors swords,bows…. very nice.


As Montreal has been submerged in one of the most cruel (and boring) deep freezes of this century, Chinatown has been quietly awesome-ing. This tiny little square that connects Old Montreal and the Plateau is more than just a place to grab cheap General Tao and fresh ginger, it is a mini mecca of unique nightlife fun..
One thing that I have always loved about Chinatown, is that it has that train station-all walks of life energy. There is something dense and chaotic about the visuals coupled with random themes back to back, providing the ultimate set-up for a somewhat adventurous and unique evening if you actually STAY there. If you are like most people, you will go for a Viet PHO then go up the street to party. If however, you stay and just let this weird little world eat you up, you will have a different kind of evening..
You might enjoy a Mongolian hot pot with sake, then a dragon beard on a bench, then grab a Chia Fresca at Le Mal Necessaire, relax and do some good high speed internet surfing. Or you might go try a rib-eye taco n spicy guac at the new tiny industrial taco joint La Capital, then go to Beijing for desert and your fortune. (if you do not like your fortune, they give you more cookies until you do!) If it's Summer, you can easily grab some tiny bbq pork buns at Harmonie and sit around the wall drinking your own wine realizing that neither of you felt the rain or saw the time pass or remembered you never went on vacation.

Der Fall der Gerti B. ist eine österreichische Filmkomödie der ORF-Fernsehfilmreihe Stadtkomödie aus dem Jahr 2019 von Sascha Bigler mit Susi Stach, Karl Fischer und Cornelius Obonya. Das Drehbuch von Sascha Bigler und Axel Götz basiert auf einer Idee von Sascha Kato und Ervin Tahirovic. Im ORF wurde der Film am 25. November 2019 erstmals gezeigt. Die Premiere auf 3sat erfolgte am 22. Mai 2022.

Handlung
Im Mittelpunkt der Handlung stehen die drei ehemaligen Freunde Gerti Bruckner, Franz Aigner und Jonas Lipansky aus dem 21. Wiener Gemeindebezirk Floridsdorf, die sich im Laufe der Jahre aus den Augen verloren hatten und nach vierzig Jahren zufällig wieder aufeinander treffen.

Gerti Bruckner ist zwischenzeitlich seit 32 Jahren mit Herbert verheiratet. Sie wurde Kriminalpolizistin und setzt sich sehr für ihren Beruf ein, was ihr jedoch kaum gedankt wird. Ihr wird die junge  Heidi Mai vorgesetzt, die meint alles besser zu wissen. Franz Aigner sollte ursprünglich das Bestattungsunternehmen seines Vaters übernehmen werden, wurde dann aber Betreiber einer Diskothek und später einer Reihe von Bordellen. Er hat seine beste Zeit ebenfalls hinter sich, von seinen Lokalen ist nur mehr eines über. Jonas Lipansky ist offiziell Uhrmacher, tatsächlich aber als Auftragskiller tätig. Er wird von seiner Auftraggeberin unter Druck gesetzt, nachdem er seinen alten Freund Franz liquidieren soll, Jonas aber zögert.

In Rückblicken werden die drei Protagonisten im Alter von sechzehn Jahren gezeigt, im Jahr 1978 am Tag des Fußballländerspiels zwischen der deutschen und der österreichischen Nationalmannschaft im Rahmen der Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft 1978 in Córdoba.

Die Leiche der Prostituierten Chanelle, die im Lokal von Franz als Domina gearbeitet hatte, wird zufällig bei einem Begräbnis entdeckt, als einer der Sargträger stolpert, sich der Sargdeckel öffnet und darin zwei Leichen zum Vorschein kommen, anstatt nur einer. Gerti ermittelt in diesem Fall, was sie zu Franz führt, der wiederum von Jonas observiert wird.

Die Auftraggeberin von Jonas wird langsam unruhig, nachdem er Franz noch immer nicht liquidiert hat und setzt ihre eigenen Leute nunmehr auf die drei Freunde Franz, Gerti und Jonas an. Jonas liquidiert die beiden Killer seiner Auftraggeberin in der Villa von Franz. Anschließend erzählt Franz Jonas, wie Chanelle ums Leben kam: Nach der Lesung von Christiane Hörbiger im Nachtklub von Franz vermisst sie Loriot, einen ihrer beiden Mopse. Hörbiger erwischt Chanelle dabei, wie sie den beiden Hunden Schokolade füttert. Es kommt daraufhin zum Streit zwischen Frau Hörbiger und Chanelle, dabei schlägt Chanelle mit dem Hinterkopf auf und kommt ums Leben.

Jonas' Auftraggeberin versucht in der Folge Gerti als Mitwisserin umzubringen. In ihrer Wohnung in einem Hochhaus lehnt sich Gerti aus dem Fenster, dabei löst sich die Verankerung des Geländers. Gerti stürzt über mehrere Stockwerke ab und fällt dabei genau auf Jonas' Auftraggeberin, die dabei stirbt. Gerti überlebt den Sturz und wird von Jonas und Franz gepflegt.

Produktion und Hintergrund
Die Dreharbeiten fanden vom 7. Mai bis zum 5. Juni 2019 in Wien statt. Drehort war unter anderem der Nachtclub Maxim auf der Wiener Kärntner Straße. Produziert wurde der Film von Lotus Film, beteiligt waren der Österreichische Rundfunk. Für den Ton zeichnete Dietmar Zuson verantwortlich, Casting Director war Eva Roth und Art Director Marlies Theis.

Nach Herrgott für Anfänger (2017) ist dies eine weitere Stadtkomödie aus Wien und die zweite, für die Regisseur und Drehbuchautor Sascha Bigler verantwortlich zeichnete. Dessen Mutter Christiane Hörbiger hat darin einen Gastauftritt, sie las vor der Kulisse des Bordellclubs in der Wiener Innenstadt aus dem Tagebuch der Josefine Mutzenbacher von Felix Salten.

Rezeption
Die Erstausstrahlung im ORF am 25. November 2019 wurde von bis zu 621.000 und durchschnittlich 576.000 Sehern verfolgt, der Marktanteil lag bei 18 Prozent bzw. bei 20 Prozent bei den 12- bis 49-Jährigen.

Closing Bricklink store to be a builder. Am I crazy?
Short summary, I started a bricklink store to make some extra cash and I did, not a lot but some and looking back I doubt I broke even. I currently have about 40k pieces listed with about 60k more waiting to be parted out. Due to a car accident and excelling at my job I'm in a much better financial situation and don't need the extra cash from the store. And I can actually have a monthly LEGO budget for new stuff. I'm contemplating closing the store in favor of becoming a builder. I know my girls are in favor because, well what kid wouldn't want an extra 100k bricks in their collection. So here's my questions. Since im mostly interested in Friends( I have 2 girls), Technic and Space related series( Classic, MTron, both Blacktron), do I pull parts and colors related to these and keep the rest in the store to sell eventually ? I realize this won't leave much in the store but if I'm likely not to use it, I rather have it sit in the store and maybe someone will buy it eventually. Plus items will be gradually added back and if I sell a few times a year great. Last question, should I add back log to bricklink and have it in stock room status in case I sell some later it's already added, vs adding parts back piece by piece later ? Am I crazy ?
Now those are cool. Very nicely done.
I was lucky enough to score some walmart clearance. 4, 75167 Bounty Hunter Speed Bike Battle Packs for $6 2, 75177 First Order Heavy Scout Walkers for $10 1, 75178 Jakku Quadjumper for $10 and a damaged box Arrowhead ship from the Lego store and the last day of double VIP. I have a strong feeling my concentration is going to be shifting to primary Star Wars, it's time I stop fighting it and just let nature takes it course.
I've decided to start building a clone army, as part one of a long term project ( most likely related to the clone wars era). I know there is currently only one battle back with " clone troopers" but there are a couple with first order and imperial troopers. Would it be bad or make a big difference if I add those as well ? I know it's ultimately all up to me but I'm curious what some others might do. Thanks in advance.
Sourcing parts for epic (to me) project. Sets or Bricklink?
So I'm wanting to start a project. I'm thinking something along the lines of a navy battleship / aircraft carrier, or a classic space outpost. That being said a lot of mixed grey pieces are in my future. I'm wondering if buying sets with mostly grey colored pieces would be better than ording all from bricklink. My thought is by purchasing sets with mostly shades of grey pieces and selling off the minifigs and unwanted pieces on bricklink I can slowly help offset the expense. As far as project size is concerned I'm thinking something in the several feet range if a navy ship or something like Jangbricks layout just all classic space related. I'm fulling expecting this project to be never ending, but at least I'll have a goal and direction moving forward. I figure this might help cut down the number of bricklink orders not to mention improve my building skills by forcing myself to concentrate on building with pieces I have on hand. So what do you think, is my thought process on the right track? Thanks in advance.
Great use of colors, really feels islandy and beachy.
Nicely done, and thanks for the pic with all the pieces, might have to try and make one now.
I realize this is an old thread but this thing is awesome.
Are those the akro mills drawers? I see several people have issue when ordering the stack on ones and them arriving broken, just wondering if the akro mills would be any better.
AFOL with Spouses not into Lego, what's your agreement?
I'd say my wife is pretty neutral for the most part. Once in a blue moon she will want to build something. I love building but do it rarely simply because I have very limited space, I've got a small shelf to display, enough room for VW Bus, the new creator surfside bus and a couple mini figures. However we have agreed that when we buy a house(currently renting), I can have a room for my toys. In the mean time I will continue to buy the sets I like and stack them in the closet, under the bed, or wherever else I can squeeze them.
I've got to use some points by the end of the year and I'm considering putting them towards the Bus, or the Beetle. I really like the bus but I'm not crazy about the red. I'm curious if anyone knows if there is list of color options I could swap out. Or if going to brickset to see if the color I'd like is available in all the pieces. I'm wanting to replace the red with lime green or a shade of blue. So my options are buy the bus and bricklink the color pieces i want to change(I probably have a good portion of them). Or buy the beetle and then bricklink the entire bus( of which I currently have about half or a little more of the pieces in my bricklink store) So what would you do if you were in my shoes.
Building my first city, need some advice please.
I'm looking to build my first city and here's what I'm thinking. I'm looking for input as to if it makes since to do what I want to do or the scale of the various builds would be way off ( scale a little off is ok). I'm wanting to do a small island/beach town using both current sets and mocs with a layout something similar to listed below. Houses along the beach both moc and something like the seaside house and friends beach house. I really like the modulars so I'm thinking a block inland to do something like the brick bank, assembly square, detectives office, and maybe a couple more, mainly going for like the historic downtown feel. Across the street from the beach I'm thinking mocs like sea food restaurant, dive shop, bike shop, tackle shop, fish market, and similar. A small marina with various boats and coupe sea planes. Small first responders units, police, fire, medic, coast guard. Maybe an airport for like 2 planes, cargo and passenger Most cars in town will be smaller version of the large vw bus, vw bug, mini cooper, maybe some speed champions, and mocs I also really like the Maersk line of sets, so I was thinking maybe using the train to represent goods coming into the town and a ship yard with the container type ships to represent goods coming in from the sea. I also really like the pirate ships like black seas barracuda, black pearl and others. So I'm thinking have one or two docked and turn it into a pirate museum, and using some of the pirate fort sets as like a mini pirate amusement park attraction. Anyway that should give you and idea of the direction I'd like to go. This build will most likely take a long time, especially since I have almost zero display space but will be moving and would be setting it up once we move. I know projects like this are truly never ending so I figure why wait to start. So what do you think, am I on the right track? Does it seem like to much? How off would the scale of the various sets be? I appreciate your time and input, thank you.
This has always been one of my favorite builds. The Mini has been one of my all time favorite cars since purchasing a 1987 while living in Germany.

David W. Hempe, Manager, Aircraft Engineering Division, AIR-100 Brad Miller, Avionic Systems Branch, AIR-130 Information: Policy and Guidance for Electronic Flight Bag Class 1 & 2
System Architecture and Aircraft Connectivity
The FAA has previously published AC 120-76, Guidelines for the Certification, Airworthiness,
and Operational Approval of Electronic Flight Bag Computing Devices. This memorandum
provides additional policy and guidance for Electronic Flight Bag Class 1 & 2 system
architecture (e.g., portable modules, lithium batteries, charging circuitry, and rapid
depressurization) and aircraft connectivity (e.g., aircraft power, data busses, mounting brackets).
This memorandum is applicable to all operators conducting flight operations under Title 14 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 91, 121, 125, 129, or 135, to obtain airworthiness
and suitability of operations approval for the Class 1 & 2 EFB systems and aircraft connectivity.
EFB Advisory Circulars (ACs)
AC 20-159, Obtaining Design and Production Approval of Airport Moving Map Display
Applications Intended for Electronic Flight Bag Systems, may be used to add own-ship position
on an EFB Class 2 system.
AC 91-78, Use of Class 1 or Class 2 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB)
AC 120-76, Guidelines for the Certification, Airworthiness, and Operational Approval of
Electronic Flight Bag Computing Devices.
EFB Class 1 & 2 System Architecture
1.1. EFB System Modules and Hybrid Configurations
Class 1 & 2 EFB systems may be packaged in various configurations where some of the modules are classified as portable and other modules are classified as installed. EFB system modules that are located in the flight deck that may be removed or installed without tools are considered portable and do not require an aircraft certification design approval. An example of this architecture is an EFB class 2 system with a central processing unit (CPU) and power supply located behind the pilot's seat with a cable connected to a display unit and keyboard. If this equipment may be installed and removed in the flight deck without tools, the modules are classified as portable. There is no requirement to remove portable equipment from the flight deck after each flight and the equipment may be allowed to stay in the flight deck for indefinite periods of time. Class 2 EFB system architecture may consist of hybrid configurations that contain both portable and installed modules. An example of this architecture is an EFB Class 2 system with a CPU and power supply located in the electrical equipment (E/E) bay with a cable connected to a display and keyboard in the flight deck. The CPU and power supply module would require an aircraft certification design approval via supplemental type certificate (STC), type certificate (TC), or amended TC and the display and keyboard would be classified as portable equipment. An applicant may obtain an aircraft certification Technical Standard Order Authorization (TSOA) for an EFB class 2 system for functions with a failure classification no greater than "minor". Refer to AC 20-159, Obtaining Design and Production Approval of Airport Moving Map Display Applications Intended for EFB Systems, to add own-ship position on an EFB Class 2 system. 1.2. EFB System Lithium Battery, Charging Circuitry and Aircraft Power
An aircraft electrical power source may provide power to Class 1 & 2 EFB systems with lithium batteries. Lithium batteries and charging circuitry may be flammable under certain conditions and could cause an unsafe condition during flight operations. In particular, lithium battery systems have the potential to pose a safety hazard when recharging. The aircraft electrical power source is not certified to mitigate unsafe conditions that could occur when connected to portable equipment (e.g., Class 1 & 2 EFB systems) which contains lithium batteries and charging circuitry. At present, there is limited experience with the use of rechargeable lithium batteries in applications involving commercial aviation. Lithium batteries include lithium ion and lithium polymer batteries or any battery storage system with lithium based chemistry. Other users of this technology, ranging from wireless telephone manufacturers to the electric vehicle industry, have noted safety problems with lithium batteries. These problems include overcharging, over-discharging, and flammability of cell components. Since the Class 1 & 2 EFB systems are not installed equipment and are not certified, safety requirements are needed to ensure that failure of lithium batteries or charging circuitry will not cause an unsafe condition. Class 1 & 2 EFB systems that are connected to aircraft electrical power sources must meet the requirements for the lithium battery and charging circuitry defined in this memorandum. If the EFB Class 1 & 2 system lithium batteries and charging circuitry do not meet the requirements defined in this memorandum, they are not eligible for connection to aircraft electrical power sources. For this reason, a limitation on Class 1 & 2 EFB system connectivity to the aircraft electrical power source is required to ensure compliance to §§ 25.1309 and 25.601.
The Aircraft Certification Office (ACO) is not required to participate in the evaluation of the
suitability of the Class 1 & 2 EFB system for connectivity to aircraft electrical power. The Class
1 & 2 EFB system lithium battery and charging circuitry compliance to the requirements
contained in this memorandum must be documented by the operator and presented to the
Principal Inspector to ensure operational suitability.
Overcharging – In general, lithium batteries are significantly more susceptible to internal
failures that can result in self-sustaining increases in temperature and pressure (i.e., thermal
runaway) than their nickel-cadmium or lead-acid counterparts. This is especially true for
overcharging which causes heating and destabilization of the components of the cell, leading to
the formation (by plating) of highly unstable metallic lithium. The metallic lithium can ignite,
resulting in a self-sustaining fire or explosion. Finally, the severity of thermal runaway due to
overcharging increases with increasing battery capacity due to the higher amount of electrolyte
in large batteries.
Over-discharging – Discharge of some types of lithium batteries beyond a certain voltage
(typically 2.4 volts) can cause corrosion of the electrodes of the cell, resulting in loss of battery
capacity that cannot be reversed by recharging. This loss of capacity may not be detected by the
simple voltage measurements commonly available to flight crews as a means of checking battery
status – a problem shared with nickel-cadmium batteries.
Flammability of Cell Components – Unlike nickel-cadmium and lead-acid batteries, some
types of lithium batteries use liquid electrolytes that are flammable. The electrolyte can serve as
a source of fuel for an external fire, if there is a breach of the battery container.
Power Connectivity
a. Use of Aircraft Electrical Power Sources. Aircraft electrical power outlets are part of
the type design of the aircraft and require airworthiness certification. Additionally, electrical
outlet connections should be appropriately labeled to identify the electrical characteristics (e.g.,
28VDC, 115VAC, 60 or 400 Hz, etc.). An electrical load analysis should be conducted to
replicate a typical EFB system to ensure that powering or charging the EFB will not adversely
affect other aircraft systems and that power requirements remain within power-load budgets. A
means (other than a circuit breaker) for the flight crew to de-power the EFB power source or
system charger is recommended. Electrical power provisions that are certified to part 25
airworthiness requirements should follow the policy outlined in the Transport Airplane
Directorate policy, "Policy Statement on Certification of Power Supply Systems for Portable
Electronic Devices on Part 25 Airplanes, ANM-01-111-165"
b. Limitations to EFB Connection to Aircraft Power. The limitations on the provisions for
aircraft electrical power connected to portable equipment with lithium batteries is required to
ensure safe operations on the flight deck. Similar limitations for the cabin may not be applicable
if a malfunction of the battery system would not produce an unsafe condition.
Aircraft Certification requires limitations to the equipment that can connect to aircraft power through a marking at the aircraft electrical power connection and in the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICAW). In addition to §§ 25.863 and 25.1353 (a), (b) (1)-(4), aircraft certification requires the limitation statement for electrical provisions to be documented on the TC, amended TC or STC. This limitation ensures that the battery system, including batteries and battery charging system, meet acceptable safety standards. The applicant must do the following: (1) Marking. The installation of the aircraft electrical power provisions must
incorporate a limitation, in the form of a marking, such as a placard. AIR approves as part of the Type Design a placard that defines what type of equipment can be connected to aircraft power. The placard provides awareness to the flight crew and maintenance personal. The placard, must be legible, easy to see and as close as practical to the docking location(s). It must be installed as part of the STC and it indicates that equipment that is connected to these provisions must be tested in accordance with the ACO approved criteria. Caution – EFB Provisions Limitation: All equipment that connects to these aircraft
electrical power must be tested in accordance with the requirements of [Company,
Document, Revision, and Date].
Caution – EFB Provisions Limitation: No equipment containing rechargeable lithium
batteries may be connected to aircraft electrical power.
(2) Limitation. AIR places in the limitation section of the approved certificate a reference to the
limitation of the aircraft electrical power source. The intent of this limitation is to provide
awareness to operators and to ensure there is awareness of this limitation during future
certification activities.
Example wording of the limitation: Any equipment that is attached to the provisions approved by this certificate must be tested in accordance with the requirements of [Company, Document, Revision, and Date]. Or: No equipment containing rechargeable lithium batteries may be connected to the provisions approved by this certificate. b. Electrical Battery Power for Class 1 EFB Systems. The operator is responsible
to ensure that the batteries are replaced as required, but no less often than the EFB manufacturer's recommended interval. d. Rechargeable Battery Power for EFB Systems. To ensure an acceptable level of
safety, the following criteria should be used to evaluate compliance to the certified electrical provisions. (1) 14 CFR 25.1353. Applicable sections to lithium batteries should be applied.
(2) 14 CFR 25.863. The flammable fluid fire protection should be applied.
(3) Safe Cells. Safe cell temperatures and pressures must be maintained during any
foreseeable charging or discharging condition and during any failure of the charging or battery monitoring system. The lithium battery installation must preclude explosion in the event of those failures.
(4) Design. Design of the lithium batteries must preclude the occurrence of self-sustaining,
uncontrolled increases in temperature or pressure.
(5) Gas Emission. No explosive or toxic gases emitted by any lithium battery in normal
operation, or as the result of any failure of the battery charging system, monitoring system, or EFB system which is not shown to be extremely remote, may accumulate in hazardous quantities within the airplane. (6) Leakage. There must be a means to minimize the probability of leakage and possible
ignition of flammable fluids or vapors that might escape. Analysis or tests should consider leakage paths and detection, flammability characteristics of system and ignition sources.
(7) Corrosive Damage. No corrosive fluids or gases that escape from the battery may
damage surrounding structure, systems, equipment or electrical wiring.
(8) Hazardous Effect. Each lithium battery must have provisions to prevent any
hazardous effect on structure or essential systems caused by the maximum amount of heat the battery can generate during a short circuit of the battery or of its individual cells.
(9) Charging. The lithium battery system must have a capability to control the charging
rate of the battery automatically, so as to prevent battery overheating or overcharging, and,
(a.) A battery temperature sensing and over-temperature warning capability with a means
for automatically disconnecting the battery from its charging source in the event of an over-temperature condition, or, (b.) A battery failure sensing and warning capability with a means for automatically
disconnecting the battery from its charging source in the event of battery failure. Note: These criteria are not intended to replace 14 CFR 25.1353(b) amendment
25-123 in the certification basis of aircraft. These criteria apply only to lithium
batteries and their use in portable electronic devices. The requirements of 14 CFR
25.1353(b) amendment 25-123 remain in effect for batteries and battery
installations of aircraft that do not use lithium batteries.
(10) Instructions for Airworthiness. The Instructions for Continued Airworthiness
required by 14 CFR 25.1529 (and 26.11) must contain steps to assure that the lithium battery is sufficiently charged at appropriate intervals specified by the battery manufacturer. The Instructions for Continued Airworthiness must also contain procedures to ensure the integrity of performance of the lithium batteries in spares storage to prevent the replacement of batteries whose function is required for safe operation of the airplane with batteries that have experienced degraded charge retention ability or other damage due to prolonged storage at a low state of charge. Precautions should be included in the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness maintenance instructions to prevent mishandling of the lithium battery which could result in short-circuit or other unintentional damage that could result in personal injury or property damage.
Note 1: The term, "sufficiently charged" means the charge that is applied to
rechargeable lithium batteries, which during the life of the battery, diminishes with
respect to the retentive capacity of the batteries to deliver available power, where
capacity is the total quantity of electricity of a cell or battery, expressed in ampere-hours.
Battery life is influenced by its internal chemical reaction, and by other factors, such as
temperature, shock, the number of times of recharge, etc.
Note 2: The EFB is required for safe operation of the airplane when paper products,
which are required by the operating rules, are removed from the airplane and replaced by
the EFB systems.
(11) Replacement Batteries. Replacement batteries must meet the requirements of items
(12) Testing Procedure. The applicant will establish criteria in the form of testing
procedures to meet items in paragraphs d.(1) through d.(9) and an ICA for item d.(10). These documents will be part of the compliance data that will be submitted to the FAA. This documentation will be referenced in the placard (see paragraph b. (1). above) and the limitation statement on the certificate (see paragraph b. (2). above). (a.) The Class 2 EFB lithium battery system should be tested using RTCA/DO-311
dated March 13, 2008, as a method to show that the Class 2 EFB meets criteria (1) through (9) above. If this standard is used then all of the tests in Table 4-1 must addressed. RTCA/DO-311 is intended to test permanently installed equipment; however, these tests are applicable and sufficient to test EFB hardware. As part of this testing: The environmental conditions of the EFB should be considered and Results of test procedures should have a pass/fail outcome. (b.) If the applicant wants to use a method other than RTCA/DO-311, the applicant
may propose the alternate criteria to the local ACO for their approval. The ACO will ensure that the testing addresses items in paragraphs d.(1) through d.(9) above. (c.) The testing method, such as DO-311, is part of the compliance data and must be
contained in the approved data. Any change to the testing method would require an amendment to the type certificate. (13) Test Results. The results of these tests are not part of the certification type design
data of this STC and are not required to be shown to the ACO. These results are part of the data the operator would need to submit to the Principal Inspector prior to determination of suitability of operations. 1.3 Rapid Decompression Considerations
Based on the intended function and proposed operating environment of the Class 1 & 2 EFB system, environmental testing for rapid depressurization may need to be performed. However, since many Class 1 & 2 EFBs were originally COTS electronic systems adopted for aviation use, testing done on a specific EFB base model configuration may be applied to other aircraft installations and these generic environmental tests need not be duplicated. It is the responsibility of the operator to provide documentation that these tests have been accomplished. EFB Class 1 & 2 systems are required to meet rapid depressurization test criteria if the EFB systems by themselves replace paper products required by the operating rules. If EFB systems do not replace paper products required by the operating rules or other mitigations are available then the EFB system are not required to meet rapid depressurization test criteria. 1.4 EFB Mounting Devices on Aircraft
An unsafe condition must not be created when attaching any EFB to the control yoke attachment/mechanism or mounting device. For example, the weight of the EFB and mounting bracket combination may affect flight control system dynamics; even though the mount alone may be light enough to be insignificant. The equipment when mounted and/or installed should not present a safety-related risk or associated hazard to any flight crewmember. A means to store or secure the device when not in use should be provided. Additionally, the unit (or its mounting structure) should not present a physical hazard in the event of a hard landing, crash landing, or water ditching. EFB systems and their power cords should not impede emergency egress. 1.5 Stowage Area for EFB Systems
A stowage area with a securing mechanism for EFB systems is recommended for storage of portable units when they are not in use. EFB systems that are not secured in a mounting device during use should be designed and used in a manner that prevents the device from jamming flight controls, damaging flight deck equipment, or injuring flight crewmembers should the device move about as a result of turbulence, maneuvering, or other action. EFB Class 1 & 2 Aircraft Connectivity
2.1 Aircraft Electrical Power
The aircraft electrical power source may provide power to EFB systems with lithium batteries. Lithium batteries and charging circuitry may be flammable under certain conditions and could cause an unsafe condition during flight operations. In particular, lithium battery systems have the potential to pose a safety hazard when recharging. The aircraft electrical power source is not certified to mitigate unsafe conditions that could occur when connected to portable equipment (e.g. Class 1 & 2 EFB systems) which contains lithium batteries and charging circuitry. The aircraft electrical power source must have a limitation on portable equipment connectivity with lithium batteries to ensure compliance with Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations section 25.1309 and 25.601. 2.2. Aircraft Data Bus Connectivity
AC 120-76 policy allows both Class 1 and 2 EFB systems to have read-only data connectivity to other aircraft systems. It also allows both Class 1 and 2 EFB systems to transmit data using Aircraft Administrative Communications (AAC) only. Data connectivity may be wired or wireless, but must only be accomplished using a certification approval (TC, STC, or amended TC). Data connectivity to other systems is not authorized except if connected to a system completely isolated from other aircraft avionics and systems (e.g., hardware firewall). Any connection to a certified aircraft data port (e.g., ARINC 429 Data bus) must be evaluated using a certification approval (TC, STC, or amended TC). The EFB system may be connected to an avionics data bus, file server, or wireless network. When connected to other aircraft data buses and/or communication systems, EFB failures should not adversely affect other installed aircraft systems. (1) Class 2 EFB systems may be connected to non-essential data buses, essential data
busses, file servers, printers, routers, etc. If the EFB is connected to a certified data link (either wired or wireless) where the data link, through the certification process, has an approved firewall protection to aircraft systems, then there is no further evaluation required prior to connecting the EFB to the data link port. (2) EFB connections to an ARINC-429 port require that the protection mechanisms (ARINC-429 interface circuitry) for non-interference be demonstrated as part of the TC, amended TC or STC approval. No credit for ARINC-429 non-interference is granted for the EFB Class 1 & 2 internal interface. 2.3 Environmental Hazards Identification and Qualification Testing
Class 1 and 2 EFB system radio frequency (RF) emissions data need to be evaluated in accordance
with AC 91.21-1, current version. Class 1 and Class 2 EFB systems should demonstrate that they
meet appropriate industry-adopted environmental qualification standards for radiated emissions for
equipment operating in an airborne environment. In general, Class 1 and Class 2 EFB systems
should be evaluated using RTCA/DO-233, Portable Electronic Devices Carried on Board Aircraft
(current version), but if the device is wireless-enabled (i.e., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc.), then DO-294,
Guidance on Allowing Transmitting Portable Electronic Devices (T-PEDs) on Aircraft (current
version), should be used. An appropriate alternative would be to test the device in accordance with
section 21, Category M, of RTCA/DO-160, Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for
Airborne Equipment, current edition.
Any Class 1 or Class 2 EFB used in aircraft flight operations should be demonstrated to have no
adverse impact on other aircraft systems (non-interference). The manufacturer, installer, or
operator may accomplish the testing and validation to ensure proper operation and non-interference
with other installed systems. Possible interference when portable EFB systems are moved about in
the cockpit should be addressed.

Movie buffs with a cool $45 million to spare might want to consider a move to Hawaii: Oahu's sprawling Dillingham Ranch, where parts of Lost, Hawaii Five-O, Kong: Skull Island, and 50 First Dates were filmed, is currently up for sale.
The 2,721-acre property is sandwiched between the island's North Shore—with nearly 19 acres of oceanfront space spanning more than 1,125 feet of coastline on Kai'ahulu Beach —and the ridgeline of the Waianae mountain range. The working ranch, established in 1897, is the largest land offering available for purchase on Oahu, and among the largest in all of Hawaii. It is currently used for cattle grazing and farming, and as an event venue and filming location; it is also home to a polo field.

The property's dual-wing house comprises eight bedrooms, a 3,000-square-foot great room, and a 700-square-foot professional-grade kitchen. The house is adjacent to an equestrian center and the largest coconut grove in Hawaii, which is among the property's most iconic filming locations: It's the site of plane and helicopter crashes in Lost and Kong: Skull Island, and is part of the post-heist escape route in Netflix's Triple Frontier. If that's not enough, in addition to the cattle and other farm animals raised on the ranch, you can spot peacocks and ducks roaming the property.
The famous beachfront polo field that has been host to Prince Charles and General George Patton.
The new ranch owner will be able to subdivide the property into 70 lots, per the realtor Cushman & Wakefield, with the potential to develop the land into a golf resort, housing development, or other multiacre hospitality enterprise, though previous attempts to do so have been unsuccessful.

After cleaning address box in IE6 (cleaning history and also in register by Typed URL's), there is always a rest of info in the address box. When I type an A in the adress box I get a list of links from programs like Acrobat Reader.lnk, AdAware.lnk ... all programs starting with an A. Also for others from B till Z this happens. Even the maps from the "Favourites" of IE are displayed when typing in A till Z in the address box. Does anyone know how this happens ... and how you can delete this or make it not happen ? Thanks for any suggestion.
Edited by kape, 11 July 2007 - 03:55 AM.
Hi Paws, Your suggestion of auto-complete is working for the normal URL's, like "www.andsoon.com" (and I like that), but that's not the problem. The problem is that in the address box other information is shown when typing f.e. the letter A. When all the URL's are deleted I get suggestions for links like AdAWare.lnk, Acroabat Reader.lnk and all the other programs that are shown on my desktop. And more : also the names of my maps of "Favourites" are shown when I type a letter in the address box. I want to know where they come from, how I can stop this ... and most of all where they are storaged to come up when typing a letter in the address bar. Sorry if my English isn'always correct, but it isn't my native language in Belgium. Any other suggestion ?

Dance Review
Only for Those Who Aren't Photosensitive
Members of Tokyo Electrock Stairs performing "Send It, Mr. Monster" at Japan Society's 15th annual contemporary dance showcase.CreditCreditAndrea Mohin/The New York Times
By Brian Seibert
Last weekend Japan Society presented its 15th annual contemporary dance showcase and once again opened a window onto the East Asian scene. The series's artistic director, Yoko Shioya, remarked that the Internet has made that scene more easily accessible. She also said that her focus has shifted from new companies to new works, since so many dancers and choreographers are now freelancers and eager to collaborate with artists outside dance. Sounds like New York.
The four North American premieres that made up this year's showcase were a typically eclectic collection. If they had anything in common, it was highly active lighting design. Strobes, digital projections — this was a program that posed risks to the photosensitive.
The most sophisticated technology came from Taiwan, in Anarchy Dance Theater's "Seventh Sense," which trapped a man and a woman within three white walls. Upon those walls and the floor, digital projections by the new media collective Ultra Combos tracked motion impressively. The light set amoebalike shapes under feet and surrounded bodies with magnetic filings or tendrils that resembled a neural network.
Unfortunately the basic contact-improv grappling of "Seventh Sense" was much less distinctive. The sympathetic attention shown by the choreographer, Chieh-hua Hsieh, toward the male dancer, who lifted the submissive woman by the throat, was more tiresome still.
In "Haigafuru — Ash is Falling," by the Kyoto choreographer Kosei Sakamoto, light and sound summoned tsunamis and radioactive leaks, intimations of the 2011 Fukushima disaster. Though the extremely drawn-out cycles of approach and retreat by the work's four underwear-clad dancers tried one's patience, some of the effects were chilling: the floating of the drowned, the stumbling of the saved.
"Misshitsu: Secret Honey Room" brought together the established Japanese dancers Makoto Enda and Kumotaro Mukai. Mr. Enda, in character as what the Japanese call a salaryman, was harassed under strobe light by Mr. Mukai, who was covered in white powder, rode a tricycle and misbehaved like some Butoh imp of the perverse. Both dancers have participated in Japan Society showcases before, and their contribution felt predictable.
The revelation was "Send It, Mr. Monster." The two exclamation points in the name of the choreographer and star, Kentaro!!, and the sound of mistranslation in the name of his group, Tokyo Electrock Stairs, raised expectations of a joke. But his was the deepest and most original work of the evening.
The mode was hip-hop, so the dance's bouncy, kinetic pleasures weren't surprising. Its emotional resonance was. Kentaro!! portrayed himself and his three dancers as confused young adults, still connected to childhood in their clapping games and tantrum-throwing, but also trying out postures of coolness.
In his solo the choreographer was virtuosic, elastically tying himself in knots, yet that virtuosity was made expressive of frustration. The whole work gave off a sad sweetness recognizable by anyone who's had to grow up.
Correction: Jan. 16, 2013
An earlier version of this article and a photo caption misspelled the name of a group that performed at the Japan Society. It is Tokyo Electrock Stairs, not Tokyo Electrorock Stairs.

Q: How to connect HTML page to MySQL Workbench Server using JavaScript,Ajax and PHP? I have an HTML page where we enter the name of a movie and if that movie is present in the database,then the name is displayed. I am trying to connect to the database using JavaScript, Ajax and PHP. The database is in the MySQL Workbench Server.
This is what I have done:
pc.html

        <input type="text" name="moviename" id="moviename" placeholder="Enter a movie...">

        <input type="button" name="search" value="Search" onclick="Search_Data()">
