All - aspect An all - aspect missile is one which is able to track a target no matter which way the target faces relative to the missile . In other words , an all - aspect missile can be launched against a target in a tail - chase engagement , in a head - on engagement , in a side - on engagement , from above , from below , etc . This is opposed to older infrared homing missiles which were only able to track the hot engine exhaust of an aircraft if the aircraft ' s engine exhaust was pointing towards the missile seeker , and thus were only successfully used in tail - chase engagements . An example is the Israeli Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Python 5 air - air / ground - air missile .
Civil War Roundtable Civil War Roundtables ( or CWRT ) are a loosely organized group of independent organizations that share a common interest in the study , promotion , and recognition of the American Civil War . The oldest such group in the United States is The Civil War Roundtable of Chicago based in Chicago , Illinois , and the second oldest is the Milwaukee Civil War Roundtable . There are hundreds of such organizations throughout the U . S . , with some in other countries as well . There is no national organization to coordinate the activities and publicity of the individual roundtables , although most follow a similar format of a monthly meeting ( some include a dinner on site or at a nearby restaurant ) , announcements of local Civil War events and activities , a guest speaker ( usually an author , park ranger , battlefield preservationist , historian , reenactor , or other expert ) . The meeting may also feature raffles , book signings , door prizes , auctions , fund raisers , and other similar activities . Some CWRT groups sponsor battlefield preservation events , battle walks , excursions , tours , and other " sanctioned " events . Many roundtables charge an annual membership fee to help defray expenses for speakers , and others raise money primarily from charging for individual dinner meetings / presentations . Several smaller CWRT groups do not charge any set fees , but instead " pass the hat " and give all or a part of the collected money to the guest speaker . Since 2004 , Matthew Borowick has been writing a column in the Civil War News about round tables . The column features " best practices " about round tables throughout the world . In 2010 , he published The Civil War Round Table Handbook , a compilation of those columns .
Ingelrii The Ingelrii swords , stylised as INGELRII , INGELRD or INGELRILT , were particularly highly prized by the Vikings . Other variations have also been found : INGRLRIIMEFECIT on a sword found ay Sigridsholm , Sweden , and INGELRIH FECIT on a sword found in Flemma , Norway . Probably crafted slightly later than the more frequently found ULFBERHT group of swords , they continued to be made until slightly later , that is , into the 12th century . By 1951 , Oakeshott had identified thirteen such swords , and had suggested that another , now at Wisbech Museum , is also an " Ingelrii " , a possibility also considered by Davidson .
Italian War of 1536 – 38 The Italian War of 1536 – 1538 between Charles V and Francis I of France began with the death of Francesco II Sforza , the duke of Milan . When Charles ' s son Philip inherited the duchy , Francis invaded Italy , capturing Turin , but failed to take Milan . In response , Charles invaded Provence , advancing to Aix - en - Provence , but withdrew to Spain rather than attacking the heavily - fortified Avignon . There is also a story that French troops deliberately left over - ripe fruit on the trees in an attempt to give Charles ' s troops dysentery . France had secured an alliance with the Ottoman Empire in 1536 through the diplomatic efforts of Jean de La Forêt . A Franco - Turkish fleet was stationed in Marseille by the end of 1536 , threatening Genoa . In 1537 Barbarossa raided the Italian coast and laid a siege at Corfu , although this provided only limited assistance to the French . With Charles V unsuccessful in battle and squeezed between the French invasion and the Ottomans , kings Francis I and Charles V ultimately made peace with the Truce of Nice on 18 June 1538 . The Truce of Nice ended the war , leaving Turin in French hands but effecting no significant change in the map of Italy . The Truce of Nice was notable because Charles and Francis refused to sit in the same room together , such was their hatred . The negotiations were carried out by Pope Paul III going from room to room , trying to reach an agreement . Charles V would turn his efforts against the Ottomans , only to lose the Battle of Preveza on 28 September 1538 .

Children were thrown into pits alive , to save bullets , in expectation that they quickly freeze to death . Memorial . In the beginning of the 1990s , a competition was held for the best design of the memorial to immortalize the thousands of citizens who perished from hands of the Nazi s . Twenty - nine designs were submitted . The winner was the architect A . Leibfreid . The construction of the complex lasted several years however it was suspended due to the lack of funds . The memorial is located at 49°56 ' 5 . 23 " N 36°26 ' 55 . 36 " E . At a meeting in late August 2001 , the Kharkiv Oblast administration decided to resume the construction of the memorial .

The Kharkiv archives contain data on fifteen thousand victims . However , the " Drobytsky Yar " foundation considers the number of dead to be closer to thirty thousand . 180 tons of a Zhytomyr granite was used in the construction of the memorial . This is the same material that was used for Lenin ' s Mausoleum . Due to the granite ' s particular qualities ( it has reddish veins ) , the stones lying at the menorah ' s foot seem to bleed . As of 2006 the names of 4 , 300 of the 16 , 000 victims were etched on an underground memorial wall , illuminated by candlelight , in a room called " Room of Tragedy " . Museum .

Battle of Solicinium The Battle of Solicinium was fought in 368 between a Roman Empire army and the Alamanni . The Roman force was led by Emperor Valentinian I , and they managed to repel the Alamanni , but suffered heavy losses during the battle . There is little known about the battle . Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus claims that different tribes organized for a major offensive , the last one to overcome the Germanic Limes . Forced to do battle , the Alamanni retreated onto a hill where they inflicted heavy casualties to the onrushing Romans until finally being defeated . The actual location of the battle is not known and remains subject to historical speculation and disagreement . No archaeological evidence has been found so far , so many hills could be the actual site of the battle . The locations under consideration are Sulz am Neckar , Heidelberg , Schwetzingen , Rottenburg ( Sülchen ) , Glauberg or the Spitzberg near Tübingen . All these sites are located in southwestern Germany , but spread over an area of roughly 200 km in diameter . The most recent research shows that the battle probably took place in the northern part of what is today Hechingen and the lost city Solicinium was located where the Roman museum of Hechingen is located today .

SCR - 536 The SCR - 536 was a hand - held radio transceiver used by the US Army Signal Corps in World War II . It is popularly referred to as a walkie talkie although it was originally designated a " handie talkie " . History . The SCR - 536 is often considered the first of modern hand held , self - contained , " handie talkie " two - way radio s . It was developed in 1940 by a team led by Don Mitchell , chief engineer for Galvin Manufacturing ( now Motorola ) and was the first true hand - held unit to see widespread use . By July 1941 , it was in mass production . In November 1942 , the SCR - 536 received coverage in the amateur radio magazine QST . It appeared on the cover as well as in Signal Corps advertising , and was featured as part of an article on the Signal Corps . “ Smallest field unit of the Signal Corps ” in which a photo caption read ; “ it is not much larger or heavier than a conventional handset . ” It was carried among the first waves to hit Omaha Beach at Normandy in June 1944 . Every rifle company of the U . S . 29th Infantry division had six ; one for each of three rifle platoons , two for the weapons platoon , and one for the company CO . The Germans were deeply impressed by the SCR - 536 and the SCR - 300 after capturing several units in Sicily . By war ’ s end , 130 , 000 of the units had been manufactured by Motorola . Today the SCR - 536 is often restored and operated by vintage amateur radio enthusiasts and military radio collectors . Specifications . The SCR - 536 incorporated five vacuum tube s in a waterproof case . There was no power switch on the SCR - 536 . The SCR - 536 weighed 5 pounds with batteries and 3 . 85 lb without batteries ( 2 . 3 and 1 . 75 kg ) . The unit operated in AM voice mode between 3 . 5 and 6 . 0 MHz frequency range . The SCR - 536 had an RF output power of 360 milliwatt s . The range of the unit varied with terrain ; from a few hundred feet , to approximately one mile over land , and 3 miles over water . The short range is accounted for by the short antenna : on transmit it shows a low radiation resistance , so it couples to free space with low efficiency . The same is true on receive , with an alternative explanation : the shorter the receiving antenna , the less energy it can intercept ( " collect " ) , and therefore deliver to the receiver . Under the Army Nomenclature System , the BC - 611 transceiver was the core component of the SCR - 536 Signal Corps Radio set . The Signal Corps technical manual number was TM 11 - 235 .

( When Sir Francis Drake looted the city of Portobelo , Panama , died and was buried at sea in its harbour , many places in England and Ireland were commemoratively named Portobello – including part of Rathmines in 1696 . The nearby canal bridge and the area became known as Portobello and thereafter , the barracks . ) Originally designed as a cavalry barracks , it saw some development along these lines , with additional land being purchased , and the addition of a church ( 1842 ) and canteen block ( 1868 ) .

Avia BH - 7 The Avia BH - 7 was a prototype fighter aircraft built in Czechoslovakia in 1923 . It was a parasol - wing monoplane developed in tandem with and as an alternative to the BH - 6 , which shared its fuselage and tail design . Like the BH - 6 , the BH - 7 was involved in a number of serious crashes during its test programme , which led to its abandonment as a fighter . Undaunted , however , Avia used the design as the basis for a racing aircraft , shortening the wingspan by 1 . 4 m ( 4 ft 7 in ) and fairing it directly into the top of the fuselage and dispensing with the cabane struts . This revised version was designated BH - 7B and the fighter ( retrospectively ) as the BH - 7A . When the design proved no more successful as a racer it was finally put to rest .
