Kinarri 16. The Kinarri 16 was the ARRI's first 16mm camera, released in 1928.

Function
The Kinarri 16 was first released as a hand cranked version, in a round camera body. The crank was on the right side and the framerate was obviously completely manually adjusted, by how quickly the cinematographer turned the crank. On the left side there was a foldout direct optical viewfinder with a crosshair. The left side could be removed to load the film into the camera. The internal magazine took 100 ft (30meters). The Kinarri 16 had a fixed 25mm lens.

The overall design was very similar to the Kinarri 35, which was released four years earlier. Arri produced this camera for the amateur market.

Shortly after a spring-wound model was released, this one had a cubic camera body, and the option of adding an external magazine. The direct optical viewfinder was replaced by a glass prism on the top of the camera.

The name is a portmantau of the German word for "cinema" ("kino") and the manufacturer's name, Arri.

David Tománek. David Tománek (born July 1954) is a U.S.-Swiss physicist of Czech origin and researcher in nanoscience and nanotechnology. He is Emeritus Professor of Physics at Michigan State University.  He is known for predicting the structure and calculating properties of surfaces, atomic clusters including the C60 buckminsterfullerene, nanotubes, nanowires and nanohelices, graphene, and two-dimensional materials including phosphorene.

Academic career 
Tománek earned a doctoral degree in Physics from the Freie Universität Berlin in 1983 under the supervision of Karl Heinz Bennemann and became Hochschulassistent there in 1984. Between 1985 and 1987 he worked as postdoctoral researcher at the Bell Labs under the supervision of Michael A. Schlüter and at the University of California, Berkeley under the supervision of Steven G. Louie. Since 1987, he has been Professor of Physics at Michigan State University, where he directs the Computational Nanotechnology Laboratory at the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

Research 
Tománek and his research group have worked in areas in nanoscience and nanotechnology. As a graduate student at FU Berlin, he studied structural end electronic properties of surfaces, including reconstruction and photoemission spectra. He was intrigued by the unusual structure and electronic properties of atomic clusters, including collective electronic excitations and superconductivity. His computational studies of growth regimes of silicon and carbon clusters have made use of the semi-quantitative Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals (LCAO) or tight-binding method.

During his 1994 sabbatical stay at the laboratory of Richard E. Smalley, he turned his interest to the unique properties of nanotubes formed of carbon (CNTs) and other materials. He studied their morphology, formation, mechanical stiffness, their ability to conduct heat and electrons, and field electron emission.

After 2000, he got involved in studies of two-dimensional materials including phosphorene. In the following years, he has continued identifying applications of carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional materials in fields including low-resistance contacts to nanostructures, nanomechanical energy storage, and purification and desalination of water.

Conferences 
Tománek initiated a series of annual Nanotube (NT) conferences and a Gordon Research Conference on Two-dimensional electronics beyond graphene.

Honors and awards 
In 2004 Tománek was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society and in 2005 he received the prestigious Alexander-von-Humboldt Senior Scientist Award (Germany). In 2008 he received the Japan Carbon Award for Life-Time Achievement and was chosen by the American Physical Society as member of the Outstanding Referees Program for excellence in peer review.

John Rasmussen (professor). John Rasmussen is a professor of biomechanics at Aalborg University. His research is aimed both at solid mechanics, biomechanics, biomedical engineering and sports engineering.

Education and research 
John Rasmussen was educated at Aalborg University, where he graduated as MA in 1986, and three years later received his PhD in computer-aided engineering. In addition to his academic work, John Rasmussen acted as chief executive officer at AnyBody Technology A/S from 2001 to 2008 and subsequently became the CTO of the same company. Furthermore, Rasmussen publishes research on a personal blog.

Rasmussen's research has influenced the theoretical field of structural optimisation in the late 1980s by applying the finite element method as the engine of his research, thus enabling optimisation of practical structures rather than conducting academic examples.

In the late 1990s, he formed the AnyBody Research Project at Aalborg University, which he is still a leading part of. One of the goals of his research is to develop methods for analysing the biomechanics of the human body involving bones, joints, muscles and tendons.

His research has contributed to the treatment of osteoarthritis, general disability and the optimisation of sports performances. Furthermore, John Rasmussen has initiated a new branch of interdisciplinary biomechanics in cooperation with Aalborg University’s Laboratory for Stem Cell Research in the aetiology of pressure ulcers, which has led to new results in tissue engineering.

Video games in Sweden. The first 20 years of video game developing in Sweden included work mostly done by separate individuals. Developing costs increased and the industry structure became more complex over time. Mapping the business of Swedish game developing history has been relatively problematic, because individuals were spread all over the country while working with different platforms in PDP, C64, VIC-20, Amiga, and IBM PC compatibles. Home computers became the focus for the creativity among often self-educated youths who got access during the 1980s.

In 2018, the Swedish games industry generated €1.8 billion and it employed almost 8,000 people.
For 2017, there were 4.2 million gamers in Sweden who spent $411.7 million.

1980-1989 
The colour-graphical VIC-20 home computer was released in 1981. The home computer Commodore 64 was released 1983. The game Space Action (1983) was developed by Arne Fernlund and published by Handic Software.

After 20 years game development shifted towards project groups of game developers.

Hans Hüter. Hans Hermann Hüter (born March 21, 1906, † June 9, 1970 in Huntsville, Alabama) was a German-Swiss rocket engineer.

Being part of the engineering team around Hermann Oberth, Rudolf Nebel and Klaus Riedel (together with Wernher von Braun, Rolf Engel, Hans Bermüller, Paul Ehmayr, Kurt Heinisch and Helmuth Zoike) Hüter was involved in the development, construction and tests of the first rockets powered by liquid gas - initially at the Berlin-Reinickendorf rocket airfield, most recently at the Peenemünde Army Research Center. He was supposed to fly as a passenger in the "Magdeburg pilot rocket" in 1933, but this flight ultimately failed.

After World War II, he was brought to the United States as part of Operation Paperclip, where he worked in the group of Wernher von Braun at Fort Bliss. In 1960, he became head of the Agena and Centaur Systems Office at NASA.

Paul Ehmayr. Paul Ehmayr (October 28, 1909, in Vienna – September 15, 1993 in Linz; sometimes incorrectly spelled as Ehmayer, Ehmeier or Ehmeyer) was a German-Austrian rocket engineer. He was a precision mechanic. His masterpiece was a barometer.

Due to the high level of unemployment in Austria, Ehmayr went to Mecklenburg in 1927, then to Berlin. There he worked from 1930 as part of the engineering team around Hermann Oberth, Rudolf Nebel and Klaus Riedel (together with Wernher von Braun, , Hans Bermüller, Hans Hüter, Kurt Heinisch and Helmuth Zoike) in the development, especially in the construction and experiments with the first rockets powered by liquid gas.

Development and tests initially took place in the Chemisch-Technische Reichsanstalt, financially supported by the Army Weapons Office. When Hermann Oberth returned to Romania, the team continued its activities in the newly founded Berlin-Reinickendorf rocket airfield where they reused the rocket stand featured in the movie "Woman in the Moon". The jointly developed rockets included the Oberth cone nozzle ("Kegeldüse"), different versions of the Repulsor, the  I-III and the Magdeburg pilot rocket (10-L)

The activities of the Verein für Raumschifffahrt and at Raketenflugplatz Berlin have been under strict surveillance. since the National Socialists came to power in the spring of 1933. After the Gestapo confiscated all documents in the same year, the organization and the rocket airfield were finally closed in June 1934

Since then, private rocket attempts have been prohibited. - all activities have now been continued under the patronage of the German Wehrmacht in the Kummersdorf Army Research Center, later in the Peenemünde Army Research Center

From then on Ehmayr worked in various companies as a technical employee until he returned to Austria together with his wife and son at the end of the war. There he lived first in Wels, then until his death in 1993 in Linz.

Paul Ehmayr was rewarded the Decoration of Honour for Services to the Republic of Austria.

Freedom 39 PH. The Freedom 39 PH is an American pilothouse schooner sailboat that was designed by Ron Holland and Gary Hoyt as a cruiser and first built in 1983.

The Freedom 39 PH was introduced at the same time as the related Freedom 39 design, a boat with a similar hull, but a ketch rig and a conventional aft cockpit, without a pilothouse.

Production
The boat was built by Tillotson Pearson in the United States for Freedom Yachts, starting in 1983.

Design
The Freedom 39 PH is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass using a balsa core, with wooden trim. It is a cat-rigged schooner, with carbon-fiber conventional booms and two free-standing carbon-fiber masts. It has an aft cockpit and a low-mounted pilothouse forward of the cockpit. It features a raked stem, a slightly reverse transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. The pilothouse has a second wheel for steering. The design displaces  and carries  of ballast.

The boat has a draft of  with the standard keel fitted.

The boat is fitted with a British Perkins Engines  for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds  and the fresh water tank has a capacity of .

The design has sleeping accommodations for six people. It has a private, aft, double cabin, under the cockpit, accessed from the pilothouse, a double settee berth in the pilothouse and a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin. There is a captain's chair in the pilothouse, along with a navigation station. The galley is U-shaped and located just aft of the bow cabin. It includes a three-burner propane stove, an oven and double sinks. There are two separate heads, one just aft of the bow cabin on the starboard side, opposite the galley and another in the aft cabin on the port side. The forward head includes a molded fiberglass shower.

Ventilation is provided by two opening ports in the aft cabin and four hatches, located over the bow cabin, the forward head, the galley and the main cabin.

All sail controls are led to the cockpit which includes two winches and sheet stoppers. The halyards, the reefing lines and the boom vang for the aft mast are all controlled from the cockpit.

Operational history
In a 1994 review Richard Sherwood wrote, "this cruiser was designed to offer the advantages of a schooner but with improved windward sailing characteristics. Since there is no forestay it cannot sag, and upwind performance is improved. The pilothouse is very low and does not block vision from the cockpit."

Concepción Mendizábal Mendoza. Concepción Mendizábal Mendoza (March 4, 1893 – November 23, 1985) was a Mexican civil engineer. Mendizábal is recognized the first woman in Mexico to earn a civil engineering degree. She attended the Palacio de Minería starting in 1921 and successfully passed the engineering exam on February 11, 1930. Following her death

Early life 
Mendizábal was born in Mexico City on March 4, 1893. Her father, Joaquín de Mendizábal y Tamborrel, was an engineer and she was inspired by his career. She had a primary education between 1913 and 1917 and then entered a normal school for teachers. She also pursued additional courses in mathematics.

Education and career 
Mendizábal started taking engineering classes at the Escuela Nacional de Ingenieros in the Palacio de Minería in 1921. At first, she audited the classes, but eventually her normal school courses were considered equivalent to the bachelor's degree she required to be fully enrolled. While she was in school, her father became ill and eventually died in 1926. Nevertheless, she came back to school and achieved high grades in all her classes. 

She graduated in 1927 and in January 1930, applied to take the professional exam for engineers. Her thesis was unusual in being illustrated with photographs. When she passed the exam on February 11, 1930, she became the first woman in Mexico to earn a civil engineering degree.

Mendizábal went on to work with the Sociedad Científica Antonio Alzate (Antonio Alzate Scientific Society), which her father had helped create.

Legacy 
She was honored with the Ruth Rivera award in 1974. Mendizábal died on November 23, 1985.
