StackEngine. StackEngine was founded in Austin, Texas in 2014 to build enterprise-grade container management and automation products to help organizations simply deploy, manage, and scale resilient applications. It was designed as a Docker management software product to provide an integrated DevOps solution for end-to-end container application delivery and operations. StackEngine was acquired by Oracle in December 2015.

History 
StackEngine was founded in May 2014 by Eric Anderson, Robert Gordon, and Bob Quillin.  As an early mover in the Docker management marketplace, StackEngine built enterprise-grade container management and automation products that helped organizations simply deploy, manage, and scale resilient applications. Silverton Partners and Live Oak Venture Partners both led the StackEngine seed investment and Series A rounds. The company launched out of stealth October 2014 to focus on products to address Docker operations.

Product 
The StackEngine model-based Docker management software provided an integrated DevOps solution for end-to-end container application delivery and operation, all with an integrated GUI dashboard, service discovery, scheduling, and orchestration functions. StackEngine could be deployed into any on-premises, hybrid, public, or private cloud environments and scaled across thousands of hosts enabling users to start in the lab and scale out to full production.

StackEngine launched the Container Application Center in June 2016 to eliminate the Docker operations bottleneck by helping ops teams (1) bootstrap Docker into production; (2) discover, visualize, and orchestrate small to large scale Docker deployments; and (3) intelligently automate change and configuration management for containers.

StackEngine focused on automation as the answer. Containerization instantly shifted the problem up the stack away from low-level system configuration tools to application-level container management tools. With StackEngine, the product was designed to help deliver product faster, deploy more frequently, operate more reliably, and run wherever was most optimal.

Oracle Acquisition 
On December 18, 2015, Oracle signed and closed an agreement to acquire StackEngine. All StackEngine employees joined Oracle as part of Oracle Cloud.  Oracle announced the Oracle Container Cloud Service – based on the StackEngine technology and built by the StackEngine team –  at Oracle OpenWorld 2016.

Robot Wants Kitty. Robot Wants Kitty is a 2011 action-adventure platform game developed by American indie developer Hamumu Software. It was adapted from a 2010 Flash game of the same name.

Plot

The player character is a robot who must navigate a maze to rescue a kitten.

Gameplay
The player controls the robot as it navigates a series of six mazes, the goal in each being to reach the eponymous kitten. At the beginning of each level, the robot can do nothing but run left and right, but it will acquire additional abilities by obtaining items (called "apps") hidden throughout the maze, thus allowing it to backtrack and traverse previously impassable obstacles. Once the robot reaches the kitten, the robot is stripped of all of its apps and sent to the next level, where the process begins again.

There is also a timer. The player loses twenty seconds each time the robot is destroyed and respawns on the last checkpoint, gains one second for each enemy destroyed, and gains ten seconds for collecting a timesaver app.

Reception

The iPhone version received "favorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. TouchArcade said, "The way you acquire all of these abilities fits perfectly in to the Metroidvania formula ... it feel[s] like the essence of what makes said formula work so well has been practically perfectly distilled", but also added, "I suppose you could look at the fact that there's only six levels as a negative point of the game." Eurogamer called it "as charming as they come", and wrote that during the game, "comparisons to some of the genre's true greats spring to mind."

Calais border barrier. The Calais border barrier is an international border barrier under construction jointly by France and the United Kingdom designed to prevent illegal migrants from gaining access to the Channel Tunnel and from the port of Calais as a means of illegal entry to Britain.   Construction, funded by Britain, began in September 2016.

It aims, in particular, to prevent migrants from entering Britain by stowing away on trucks and ferry boats.  The wall will cut the large migrant encampment known as the Calais Jungle off from access to the port and tunnel entrance.  The government of Calais opposes construction of the wall, preferring that the central government instead dismantle the Jungle because the illegal migrants living there place a strain on local resources.

The $23 million cost will be shared by Britain and France.

Air-jet loom. An air-jet loom is a shuttleless loom that uses a jet of air to propel the weft yarn through the warp shed. It is one of two types of fluid-jet looms, the other being a water-jet loom, which was developed previously.  Fluid-jet looms can operate at a faster speed than predecessor looms such as rapier looms, but they are not as common. The machinery used in fluid-jet weaving consists of a main nozzle, auxiliary nozzles or relay nozzles, and a profile reed.

Air-jet looms are capable of producing standard household and apparel fabrics for items such as shirts, denim, sheets, towels, and sports apparel, as well as industrial products such as printed circuit board cloths.  Heavier yarns are more suitable for air-jet looms than lighter yarns.  Air-jet looms are capable of weaving plaids, as well as dobby and jacquard fabrics.

Method
In an air-jet loom, yarn is pulled from the supply package, and the measuring disc removes a length of yarn of the width of fabric being woven.  A clamp holds the yarn and an auxiliary air nozzle forms it into the shape of a hairpin.  The main nozzle blows the yarn, the clamp opens, and the yarn is carried through the shed.  At the end of the insertion cycle, the clamp closes, the yarn is beaten in and cut, and the shed is closed. The jets are electronically controlled, with an integrated database. 

Research has been done to analyze factors that contribute to compressed air use, a major source of energy consumption, in air-jet looms.

History and production
The air-jet loom was invented in Czechoslovakia in the 1950 by Vladimír Svatý and was later refined by Swiss, Dutch, and Japanese companies.

Companies that produce air-jet looms include Toyota Industries and Tsudakoma, both based in Japan; RIFA (PICKWELL in India), based in China; Picanol, based in Belgium; Dornier, based in Germany; and RIFA, based in China; and Itema, based in Italy.
