Phantom OS

Phantom OS is an operating system (OS) made by mostly Russian programmers (with help of some Uzbeks). It is based on a concept of persistent virtual memory, and uses a virtual machine, managed code, and bytecodes. It is one of a few OSes not based on classic concepts of Unix-like systems. Its primary goal is to achieve simplicity and effectiveness in both the operating system and application software at the same time. It is free and open-source software (FOSS) released under a GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
Phantom is based on the principle that "Everything is an object", in contrast to the Unix-like approach of "Everything is a file".
Basics
Managed code – Memory protection on object level, rather than process level; absence of pointer arithmetic in managed code avoids many problems that exist and occur in unmanaged code.
Global address space – Very effective and inexpensive inter-process communication (IPC). Single (flat) address space allows transfer of objects from one process (application) to another by transferring links to that object. Security is achieved via absence of pointer arithmetic and the inability of an application to get linked to an object other than by calling a public method.
Persistence – Application code does not see OS restarts and could live forever—this makes the concept of a file obsolete and any variable or data structure could be stored forever and at the same time be available directly through a pointer. Differently from hibernation that is done in other OSs, persistence lies in the very core principles of the Phantom OS core. It is done transparently for applications; in most cases it requires no reprogramming of an application. Persistence stays even if the computer crashes.
Compatibility
Two ways to migrate code are offered:
Converter from Java virtual machine (JVM) bytecode; supposed to allow import of bytecode from Java and other programming languages that target the JVM.
The Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX) subsystem allows porting application code from Unix and Linux, although important features of Phantom OS become unavailable.
Status
, the system exists in alpha version for x86 IA-32 processors. Porting to ARM architecture is underway (currently being tested, not yet ready for use) and porting to MIPS and x86-64 (AMD64) has begun. Kernel operation has been demonstrated at the biggest Russian IT-conferences RIT 2011, ADD 2010, CC 2010, and 2009.
The project is open for contributors to join.

Two years later, with four gold, one silver and one bronze medals he became the most successful male athlete at the 1968 Summer Olympics. In 1970, he won another four world titles: in team competition, on rings, floor and parallel bars. He won four more medals at the 1972 Summer Olympics.

جسر عزرائيلي

جسر عزرائيلي أو جسر الكرياه أو جسر السلام هو جسر قوسي مُعلق مُخصص للمُشاة في تل أبيب، إسرائيل. يمتد الجسر فوق طريق بيغن ويربط مجمع الكرياه الحكومي غربًا مع مجمع عزرائيلي التجاري شرقًا. وتقع بقربه محطة قطار هشلوم. كثيرًا ما يستخدمه الجنود وموظفو وزارة الدفاع.
أُنشئ الجسر في عام 2003 كجزء من مشروع لربط مركز عزرائيلي ومجمع الكرياه بالقطار. صممه المهندس المعماري أفراهام ياسكي. يرتكز الجسر على أقواس كبيرة مصنوعة من أنابيب فولاذية سميكة، ومن هذه الأقواس تنزل أسلاك فولاذية تحمل الجسر. قبل بناء الجسر كان هناك ممر تحت الأرض قرب موقعه الحالي. يبلغ طول الجسر حوالي 100 متر، وعرضه 10 أمتار، وارتفاعه 8 أمتار فوق طريق مناحيم بيغن. يضم الجسر من كلا الجانبين سلالم وسلالم متحركة ومصعد.

Khanqah of Baybars II

Khanqah of Baybars II
The Khanqah of Baybars II is a medieval building located on historic Sharia Gamaliya in Cairo, Egypt. It was built between 1306 and 1310 in the medieval Islamic Cairo to accommodate four hundred Sufis and children of the Mamluk Sultanate. This is the oldest khanqah or convent that has survived in modern Cairo.
Builder
Baibars al-Jashankir or Baibars II (d.1310, Cairo) (royal name: al-Malik al-Muzaffar Rukn al-Din Baibars al-Jashankir al-Mansuri; Arabic: الملك المظفر ركن الدين بيبرس الجاشنكير المنصورى) (Nickname: Abu al-Fath (Arabic: أبوالفتح)), was known as al-gashankir, "the taster", a court position he held at one point. He served as the Atabek of Egypt and after the death of Emir Salar, he became the Sultan of Egypt in 1309. He sponsored lavish decoration of the building.
Building
Within the confines of the irregular site, the various functions of the Khanqah were interwoven into an architecturally rich building complex. The elegant facade has an imposing arched entrance that projects into the street. The doorway is set back in a marble recess covered with a hood of stalactites. A block of pharaonic stone engraved with hieroglyphics was used for the doorsill.
The minaret, capped with a ribbed dome that was once covered with green faience tiles, is located on the south side of the building. The first tier is square and trimmed with rows of stalactites, or Muqarnas vaulting, while the second is cylindrical.

Sky Destroyer

Sky Destroyer
is a rail shooter video game released by Taito in 1985 as an arcade game as well as for the Family Computer. Controlling a Japanese World War II monoplane, the player assumes the role of the pilot of the respective naval aircraft who is required to destroy enemies to clear stages.
Gameplay
In Sky Destroyer, the player controls a plane, equipped with machine guns and torpedoes and ammunition is unlimited.
The color of the sky changes according to the time of the day (afternoon, evening, night). F6F Hellcats (F4U Corsairs in the Arcade Version) are common enemy fighter planes the player will encounter. Occasionally, the player would run into a B-24 bomber and has to shoot each of its four engines before the B-24 flies away. Sometimes when player has shot down a number of B-24s, they would encounter a falling satellite across the screen. A high number of points would be rewarded if the satellite gets destroyed. There are bonus stages in this game.
Enemy resistance comes not only from the air, but from land and sea as well. Sometimes, an American naval destroyer or submarine would try to down the player's plane with anti-aircraft fire. Aircraft carriers can sometimes be seen in the distant horizon (but can still be sunk with torpedoes). At the end of a stage, the player faces a mobile shore battery on an island. This battery must be destroyed in order to complete the mission. If the player is hit even just once by enemy fire, his plane crashes and he loses one life point. The game is over when all life points are used up.
Sky Invader
A hacked version of this game made by Inventor is known as Sky Invader. The differences between the original and the hacked version are:
Different title screen.
Different music.
Different planes (both the player's and the enemies are modified).
The sky is pink.
The water color is different.
The player starts with nine airplanes instead of three.
The stages are called "WAR".
Reception
In Japan, Game Machine listed Sky Destroyer on their December 15, 1985 issue as being the third most-successful table arcade unit of the month.
