1978 Lehigh Engineers football team. The 1978 Lehigh Engineers football team was an American football team that represented Lehigh University as an independent during the 1978 NCAA Division I-AA football season.

In their third year under head coach John Whitehead, the Engineers compiled an 8–3 record. Bill Bradley and Pete DeLuca were the team captains.

Lehigh had won the NCAA Division II Football Championship in 1977, and in 1978 the Engineers moved up to the newly formed Division I-AA, later to be renamed the Football Championship Subdivision. Also moving up from Division II, and competing as I-AA independents, were in-state rivals Bucknell and Lafayette. The Engineers' 1978 schedule included opponents from Division I-A, Division I-AA, Division II and Division III.

Lehigh played its home games at Taylor Stadium on the university's main campus in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

SmartWare. SmartWare is an office suite, originally developed for MS-DOS and Unix, and later Microsoft Windows, including a database, word processor, spreadsheet, and a (now obsolete) "communication" module for communication via a modem .

The user interface consists of a window in which documents, spreadsheets and database views are displayed and can be manipulated via a command line at the bottom of the window. Significantly the product includes a complete and powerful programming language enabling developers to build complex applications. The spreadsheet and word processor modules are proprietary, but the database is built on a FairCom database engine.

Started in 1983, it was developed for many years, with SmartWare 4.5 released in 2004 and VisualSmartWare being released in 2006. The later versions include features such as the capability to communicate with SQL servers, use Microsofts Dynamic-link library and ActiveX technologies, and optionally provide a less 'Dossy' looking user interface.

Smartware is still widely used and has an active online Smartware Users Group - Smug.

Similar and competitive packages included Lotus Symphony, Microsoft Works, Context MBA, Framework, Enable and Ability Office.

Rexus/Bexus. The REXUS/BEXUS (Rocket Experiments for University Students / Balloon Experiments for University Students) programme is a cooperation between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA) that allows students from higher education institutions to study experiments on board sounding rockets and stratospheric balloons. Through a collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA), the opportunity has been made available for students across all ESA Member States, Slovenia and Canada. The Swedish Space Corporation (SSC) and the Mobile rocket base (MORABA) of DLR are responsible for the launch. Students are getting support from experts of DLR, ESA, SSC and ZARM. The programme started in 2007.

Each year, two REXUS rockets and two BEXUS balloons are launched from the Esrange Space Center in northern Sweden. A maximum of 20 experiments designed and built by student teams are flown every year. As of 2017, 147 experiments involving more than 1200 students from all over Europe were successfully launched. The launch vehicles are suitable for carrying research in various scientific areas such as atmospheric science, radiation physics, control systems, communication, aerodynamics and more.

REXUS rocket 

REXUS rockets are launched from Esrange on an annual basis (nominally 2 rockets per year). The rocket is spin-stabilised and powered by 290 kg of an Improved Orion motor. The rocket can embed up to 40 kg of experiments to an altitude of 70 to 90 km. The peak acceleration of the rocket is about 17 g. A yo-yo de-spin system is used to reduce the spin rate of the rocket from 4 Hz to 0.08 Hz before reaching the apogee. The nosecone can be ejected during flight. As of March 2024, 32 REXUS rockets have been launched.

REXUS is part of the rocket family operated by the Mobile Rocket Base (MORABA), a branch of DLR.

BEXUS balloon 
BEXUS balloons are launched from Esrange on an annual basis (nominally 2 balloons per year). BEXUS consists of a 12,000 m3 Zodiac 12 SF plastic balloon filled with helium gas. It can lift up to 100 kg of experiments to an altitude of 25–35 km during a period of 2 to 5 hours. The length of the balloon train from the top of the balloon to the gondola is about 65 to 100 m. As of 2019, 29 BEXUS balloons have been flown.

Experiment
U-PHOS (Upgraded PHP Only for Space) is one of the selected experiments of the programme.

Chemical Industries of Ethylene Oxide explosion. On 14 January 2020, two explosions at the Chemical Industries of Ethylene Oxide (IQOXE) site in Tarragona, Catalonia, Spain, killed three offsite people and injured seven.

The site is operated by IQOXE, which is the only producer of ethylene oxide in Spain with an installed capacity of 140,000 tonnes per year, and 50% of this production is destined to the manufacture of glycol, one of the main raw materials for the production of PET polymers. Because of the toxic nature of the chemicals it produces, the site is covered by the Seveso-III directive.

Sequence 
The first explosion occurred between 18:40 and 19:00  and affected an ethylene oxide tank of the company. The second one affected a transformation station of the same company. The blast was noticed within a radius of several kilometres.

Following the explosion, there was a severe fire with a large smoke plume. Thirty teams of firefighters ensured that the propylene oxide left in the tank burned in a controlled manner.

Following the explosion and the fire, a 500-metre (547 yd) exclusion zone was imposed; railway lines and a highway were closed. As a temporary measure, people in the area (populations of La Canonja, Vilaseca and 3 neighbourhoods of Tarragona) were confined in their homes. They were advised to keep doors and windows closed until more information would be available about the eventual toxicity of the smoke of the fire.

Two workers of the plant were killed off-site, due to a collapsing roof. A third person, Sergio Millán, 59, was killed after being struck by a steel plate, which was most likely the lid of the reactor tank, that was catapulted over a distance of 2 km (1.2 mi) due to the blast of the explosion. A video taken by a security camera shows the plate flying through the air.

The weight of the reactor lid was 800 kg (1,764 lb). Seven employees were injured, two of them seriously due to major burns. The injured were treated in hospitals in Barcelona and Tarragona.

Ethylene oxide 
Ethylene oxide is a very hazardous substance. At room temperature it is a flammable, carcinogenic, mutagenic, irritating, and anaesthetic gas. It is used for making many consumer products as well as non-consumer chemicals and intermediates. These products include detergents, thickeners, solvents, plastics, and various organic chemicals.

Site classification 
The IQOXE site is classified as an "upper tier establishment" under Directive 2012/18/EU, meaning its operators should comply with the strictest safety regimen. It is listed in the Electronic Seveso Plant Information Retrieval System database. Article 20 states the period between two consecutive inspections at such sites shall not exceed one year.

Santa Fe Class 2900. The Santa Fe 2900 Class was a series of 30 4-8-4 type steam locomotives built between 1943 and 1944 for Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad and pulled freight and passenger trains until retirement in the early to late-1950s.

Today, six 2900s survive, with five units on static display and one, No. 2926, has been restored to operating condition in Albuquerque, New Mexico. When it was fully restored in July 2021, it is considered to be the largest operating 4-8-4 type steam locomotive in the United States.

History
Being built during World War II, wartime shortages of lightweight metals resulted in ordinary metals being used for their construction. This resulted in the class being the heaviest 4-8-4s ever built. They outweighed their nearest rivals by over 2,000 pounds. They have Timken roller bearings on all axles. Between 1946 and 1948, they were then approved for 110 mph speeds with the Santa Fe's express passenger trains after being fitted with Timken roller bearing tandem side-rods, up from 100-mph when delivered with its original side-rods. However, anecdotes from retired drivers have hinted that the class was able to run at speeds of over 120 mph for miles.

Though they were designed to haul passenger trains, wartime exigencies required that they also haul fast freight until the war ended. After the war, they hauled passenger trains such as the Chief, Scout and Grand Canyon Limited. After diesels took over, the class was retired by 1959.

Preservation
Six 2900s survived into preservation:
 2903 is displayed at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois. 
 2912 is displayed at the Pueblo Railway Museum in Pueblo, Colorado.
 2913 is displayed at Riverview Park in Fort Madison, Iowa.
 2921 was originally displayed at Beard Brook Park in Modesto. It is now displayed at the Modesto Amtrak Station in Modesto, California.
 2925 is displayed at the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, California.
 2926 moved from Coronado Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1999 to the New Mexico Steam Locomotive and Railroad Historical Society (later renamed to New Mexico Heritage Rail) there; then moved locally for rebuilding to operating condition. Restoration was complete in July 2021, and is currently operational. On October 1, 2007, No. 2926 was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Inorganic waste. Inorganic waste is a type of waste that does not contain organic compounds. This waste is generally very difficult to decompose by microorganisms. Glass, aluminum cans, dust, and metal are some examples of inorganic waste. Inorganic waste remains free from decay, with more than 500 years needed being common for effective decomposition, therefore disposal can be challenging. Reducing consumption, reusing, and recycling are possible solutions for coping with this type of waste.

Transaural. Transaural Stereo is a technology suite of analog circuits and digital signal processing algorithms related to the field of sound playback for audio communication and entertainment. It  is based on the concept of crosstalk cancellation but in some versions can embody other processes such as binaural synthesis and equalization.

The technology was developed in the 1970's by Duane H. Cooper and Jerald L. Bauck.

Description 
The central concept behind transaural stereo is that there are two loudspeakers and a single listener (two ears).  The left-channel signal should only reach the left ear and the right-channel signal should only reach the right ear, each with appropriate timbral corrections. 

To effect this, a circuit or computer algorithm is devised.  It is based on the knowledge of the four frequency-dependent transfer functions, the so-called ipsilateral and contralateral paths.:

 L-to-L
 L-to-R
 R-to-L
 R-to-R

These four functions are examples of head-related transfer functions (HRTF).

A more general theory allows arbitrary numbers of loudspeakers and ears (listeners). The inputs to the process are sometimes recorded binaural signals from a recording mannequin ("dummy head") but this is not a requirement. Virtual loudspeakers can be formed by combining crosstalk cancellation with binaural image synthesis so that, for example, narrowly-spaced loudspeakers can be made to sound farther apart or a five-channel surround sound system can be made with only two actual loudspeakers, a virtual home theater.

History 
transaural stereo was developed by Duane H. Cooper and Jerald L. Bauck. An early version was published as a Master's thesis at the University of Illinois in 1978 and later in the Journal of the Audio Engineering Society. The work was continued in the mid-1980s as an improvement on and practical implementation of the early work in comparative auditoria studies in the 1960s of Schroeder and Atal  which was reported as obtaining unstable images under slight head movements. 

Cooper and Bauck, using methods to stabilize images and reduce the filter count, made an analog crosstalk canceller, a two-speaker spreader, and an eight-position binaural image synthesizer which doubled as a binaural pan pot in 1987–1989 using biquadratic analog filters in shuffler configurations. Later implementations used highly efficient digital biquadratic filters. 

The distributed source concept with both discrete and continuous source distributions was created in March 1997 and later refined and the refinement named Optimal Source Distribution.

1979 Lehigh Engineers football team. The 1979 Lehigh Engineers football team was an American football team that represented Lehigh University as an independent during the 1979 NCAA Division I-AA football season. The Engineers finished the year ranked No. 3 in Division I-AA and qualified for the four-team national playoff. They won their semifinal but lost the 1979 NCAA Division I-AA Football Championship Game.

In their fourth year under head coach John Whitehead, the Engineers compiled a 10–3 record (9–2 in the regular season). Rich Andres, Jim McCormick and Eric Yaszemski were the team captains.

Lehigh returned to the national championship two years after winning the NCAA Division II Football Championship and the Lambert Cup in 1977. Its two regular season losses in 1979 were away games at Colgate, a Division I-A team, and at Delaware, the eventual Division II champion.

Lehigh played its home games at Taylor Stadium on the university's main campus in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

State Trading Corporation building. State Trading Corporation building (also known as Jawahar Vyapar Bhawan) in New Delhi, India, was designed by the architect Raj Rewal, and is home to the government-owned State Trading Corporation of India. Built between 1976 and 1989, it is considered to be an important example of modernist architecture in post-Independence India. Rewal used elements from the Japanese Metabolism style, but departed from it by drawing inspiration from Mughal architecture, as seen in the polychromatic sandstone cladding, instead of concrete. The "structurally expressive" design employs Vierendeel trusses. Apart from offices, the building houses the Central Cottage Industries Emporium, a government-run store that retails Indian crafts products.
