Liquid Crystal Institute

The former Glenn H. Brown Liquid Crystal Institute (LCI) at Kent State University is now renamed the Advanced Materials and Liquid Crystal Institute. The AMLCI is a center of study for liquid crystal technology and education, blending basic and applied research on liquid crystals. This approach has resulted in technological advances and new applications such as display tablets, optical shutters, variable transmission windows, projection display devices, and flexible displays. Established in 1965, the institute is now directed by Torsten Hegmann and is housed at KSU's Liquid Crystal and Materials Sciences building, completed in 1996. The LCI is home to the Chemical Physics Interdisciplinary Program, which offers masters and Ph.D. studies in the physics and chemistry of liquid crystals and their applications. The program is open to incoming students with degrees in physics, chemistry, engineering, and materials science. Directors There have been five directors of the Liquid Crystal Institute. Glenn H. Brown (1965–1983) Glenn H. Brown founded the Liquid Crystal Institute in 1965. In 1986 the Kent State University Board of Trustees honored him by naming the institute after him. J. William Doane (1983–1996) Bill Doane received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1965; he became a member of the Kent State University faculty the same year. In 1983 he became Director of the Liquid Crystal Institute and in 1991 the ALCOM Center's first director, serving in both capacities until his retirement from the University in 1996. John L. West (1996–2003, 2016–2019) Oleg D. Lavrentovich (2003–2011) Hiroshi Yokoyama (2011–2016) Torsten Hegmann (2019–present) References External links AMLCI Home
Stambaugh Stadium

Stambaugh Stadium, officially Arnold D. Stambaugh Stadium, is a stadium in Youngstown, Ohio, United States, sited on the campus of Youngstown State University. The stadium was built in 1982, and is primarily used for American football. It is the home venue for the Youngstown State Penguins football team, a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) at the Division I Football Championship Division (FCS) level and the Missouri Valley Football Conference. History When it opened in 1982, Stambaugh had one large grandstand on the west side, with a seating capacity of approximately 17,000. During their time at Stambaugh, the football team has risen to become a power in FCS football, qualifying for NCAA Division I Football Championship playoffs 12 times, advancing to the championship game on six occasions, and winning four national championships through the 2015 season. The stadium is also known by fans as the "Ice Castle". The stadium's 25th Anniversary was celebrated during the 2007 season, and the top 25 players in the stadium's first 25 years were honored at a ceremony on September 15, 2007. Those players were: Renovations The stadium was upgraded and expanded prior to the 1997 athletic season with the addition of over 3,000 bleacher seats on the east side of the field, on the site of a practice field. In addition, a new press box was created and 14 additional luxury suites were built, along with a stadium club, which hosts the football team's weekly press conferences and is rented out for private events. Since 1997, the stadium's capacity is 20,630, making it the largest stadium in the Missouri Valley Football Conference. In the summer of 2009, an auxiliary scoreboard was constructed in the south end zone, giving Stambaugh Stadium a scoreboard in each end zone. New reserved chairback seats were also installed during the 2009 season along with two new flagpoles next to the scoreboard in the north end zone, one for the Ohio flag and one for the United States flag.

Flughafen Toledo Express

Der Flughafen Toledo Express (englisch Eugene F. Kranz Toledo Express Airport, IATA-Code: TOL, ICAO-Code: KTOL) ist ein zivil-militärischer Flughafen im Lucas County in Ohio. Toledo Air Show Bis 2004 fand auf dem Flughafen alle zwei Jahre die Toledo Air Show statt. Im Juli 2016 wurde sie nach zwölfjähriger Pause zum ersten Mal wieder abgehalten. Zwischenfälle Am 29. Oktober 1960 stürzte eine Curtiss C-46F-1-CU Commando der US-amerikanischen Arctic Pacific (Luftfahrzeugkennzeichen N1244N) nach dem Start vom Flughafen Toledo Express ab. Die Maschine stürzte etwa 1700 Meter hinter dem Beginn der Startbahn ab, geriet in Brand und wurde zerstört. Das Flugzeug war mit 2000 pounds (gut 900 Kilogramm) über seinem zulässigen Höchstabfluggewicht überladen. Hinzu kam ein teilweiser Leistungsverlust des linken Triebwerks. Von den 48 Insassen wurden 22 getötet, zwei Besatzungsmitglieder und 20 Passagiere. Am 15. Februar 1992 verstarben alle vier Personen an Bord einer Douglas DC-8-63F der Air Transport International (N794AL), als die Crew während eines Durchstartmanövers am Flughafen Toledo Express die räumliche Orientierung verlor und die Maschine 5 Kilometer nordwestlich des Flughafens abstürzte. Am 11. September 2019 verunglückte eine auf einen privaten Betreiber zugelassene Convair CV-440 (N24DR) beim Anflug auf den Flughafen Toledo Express. Die Frachtmaschine stürzte im Landeanflug 1 Kilometer vor der Landebahn ab. Die beiden an Bord befindlichen Personen kamen ums Leben. Weblinks Offizielle Website (englisch) Einzelnachweise
Aeropuerto Express de Toledo

El Aeropuerto Express de Toledo, oficialmente Aeropuerto Express Eugene F. Kranz de Toledo (del inglés: Toledo Express Airport) (IATA: TOL, OACI: KTOL, FAA LID: TOL), es un aeropuerto civil-militar ubicado en los municipios de Swanton y Monclova, a 16 km (10 mi) al oeste de Toledo, en el oeste del Condado de Lucas, Ohio, Estados Unidos. Fue inaugurado el 31 de octubre de 1954 e inaugurado el 5 de enero de 1955 como reemplazo del Aeropuerto Municipal de Toledo, actualmente Aeropuerto Ejecutivo de Toledo, al sureste de Toledo.​​ Toledo es utilizado tanto por aerolíneas de pasajeros como de carga, así como por la aviación general. También alberga la 180.ª Ala de Cazas de la Guardia Nacional Aérea de Ohio. Es un aeropuerto secundario para el Aeropuerto Metropolitano de Detroit (DTW) y la región circundante, e incluso sirve como punto de desvío principal para DTW. El aeropuerto es operado por la Autoridad Portuaria del Condado de Toledo-Lucas mediante un contrato de arrendamiento con la Ciudad de Toledo. El aeropuerto también sirve como sede y centro de carga terrestre para BX Solutions. El aeropuerto fue renombrado oficialmente en septiembre de 2020 para honrar al director de vuelo retirado de la NASA y nativo de Toledo, Gene Kranz.​ Historia Los esfuerzos para construir un aeropuerto moderno comenzaron poco después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, cuando los líderes cívicos se dieron cuenta de que el Aeropuerto Municipal de Toledo (hoy Aeropuerto Ejecutivo de Toledo) era inadecuado. Se propusieron varias ubicaciones, que luego se descartaron, hasta 1952, cuando un consorcio de seis importantes empresas de Toledo (Libbey-Owens-Ford, Owens-Illinois, Owens-Corning Fiberglas, Champion Spark Plug, Electric Auto-Lite y Willys-Overland) adquirió el terreno del Aeropuerto Toledo Express, al oeste de Toledo, y lo vendió a la ciudad al costo. El aeropuerto se inauguró el 31 de octubre de 1954 y estaba previsto que iniciara sus primeras operaciones comerciales el 5 de enero de 1955, las cuales se cancelaron debido a las condiciones climáticas.​​ Aerolíneas y destinos Pasajeros Carga Véase también Aeropuertos del mundo Aeropuertos de Estados Unidos Referencias Enlaces externos Página oficial del aeropuerto TOL (en inglés) Sitio Oficial del Departamento de Transportes de los Estados Unidos (en inglés) Administración Federal de Aviación de los EE.

London Correctional Institution

The London Correctional Institution (LoCI) is located in Union Township, Madison County, just west of London, Ohio, 27 miles (43 km) southwest of Columbus. It was originally known as the London Prison Farm. From 1913 to 1925 it was a branch of the Ohio Penitentiary in Columbus. In 1925, it became a separate facility. The prison currently accommodates approximately: 2,500 adult males in three security levels: minimum, medium and close-security. Construction and Ohio State inmates The site selected in 1913 for what was originally intended to become the new Ohio Penitentiary was in Madison County, Ohio, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northwest of London, Ohio. The state already owned 1,448 acres (586 ha) there and later acquired another 1,088 acres (440 ha), bringing the total tract to 2,989.67 acres (1,209.88 ha). Plans for a new penitentiary were later shelved, possibly because of World War I, and construction of the London Prison Farm began in the early 1920s. The main building was erected entirely by inmate labor under civilian supervision, as the state lacked sufficient funds to hire outside construction workers. In 1925, the London Prison Farm became a separate correctional institution. Facilities for the inmates The complex expanded over time. After the 1930 Easter Monday fire at the Ohio Penitentiary, another wing was added at London; completed in 1931, it provided additional housing for inmates transferred from the Ohio Penitentiary. South of the main institution, an honor dormitory completed in 1955 had a capacity of 332 inmates assigned to outlying farm projects and related work, including the dairy, granary, power plant, slaughterhouse and motor pool. By the late 1970s, the institution proper consisted of six two-story wings, while farm buildings, storerooms and factories accounted for 78 additional structures on the grounds. Present day The London Correctional Institution now owns around 3,000 acres (12 km2). Over $30 million have been spent to renovate the prison. As of November 2013, the population was 2,283 inmates. The prison has a staff of 379 employees. Programs for the inmates The London Correctional Institution provides programs for the inmates, such as the Family Life Centers and The New Beginnings Unit. Now, the facility has a reading room for inmates and their children. Inmates are also able to earn their GEDs and other academic diplomas. Vocational programs include auto technology, barbering, dental lab, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning), web based design, animal training, and culinary arts. References
