Sabrewing Rhaegal. The Sabrewing Rhaegal is a proposed American unmanned cargo aircraft developed by Californian Sabrewing Aircraft.

Design 
The hybrid electric vertical takeoff and landing full-size Rhaegal-A is powered by a  turboshaft engine and has ducted fans, a  wingspan, a  gross-weight, a VTOL payload of  in STOL mode, a maximum speed of  and a range of  at up to .
A larger Wyvern could lift a VTOL payload of  in STOL configuration.

Development 
By February 2018, Sabrewing was to fly a 65%-scale vehicle in the fall.
By February 2019, a one-eighth-scale model was going to be tested while the first full-size aircraft construction had begun, to fly by the end of 2019 and to enter service in 2023.
By then, the Aleut Community of Saint Paul Island, Alaska, in the Bering Sea signed its first order for four Rhaegal and six larger Wyvern aircraft, to resupply Saint George Island,  south. The half-scale Rhaegal-B was completed and officially revealed to the public during the U.S. Air Force "Agility Prime" program unveiling.

At the January 2020 Vertical Flight Society symposium, Sabrewing announced a larger Rhaegal-B was being completed, to be revealed within weeks.
With an increase in wingspan, fuselage length and maximum gross weight, payload increases by  in VTOL and over  in conventional take-off/landing.
It should load a single LD1 or LD3 container, or two LD2 containers, through the nose without special cargo handling equipment.
FAR Part 23 certification negotiations were to be completed within weeks, to deliver cargo autonomously in any weather and any airspace.

In July 2020, Sabrewing announced that it had received the first Agility Prime contract from the United States Air Force worth $3.3 million USD for "evaluation" of Sabrewing's Rhaegal RG-1 aircraft.  In September 2020, Sabrewing announced that it had received a firm order for 102 aircraft from Arabian Development and Marketing Company (ADMC), a company with IT, telecom, logistics and transportation and media interests, in a deal worth over $600 million. The deliveries of aircraft are to begin in 2022 to support the air cargo transportation needs of the Saudi Arabian Neom project.

In October of 2022, Sabrewing  announced that its RH-1-A drone had lifted a payload of 829 pounds (374 kg) on its first hover flight, saying that this was a heavier payload than had previously been “dead-lifted” by any commercial, vertical takeoff, uncrewed air vehicle.

Coupled substitution. Coupled substitution is the geological process by which two elements simultaneous substitute into a crystal in order to maintain overall electrical neutrality and keep the charge constant. In forming a solid solution series, ionic size is more important than ionic charge, as this can be compensated for elsewhere in the structure.

Ionic size

To make a geometrically stable structure in a mineral, atoms must fit together in terms of both their size and charge. The atoms have to fit together so that their electron shells can interact with one another and they also have to produce a neutral molecule. For these reasons the sizes and electron shell structure of atoms determine what element combinations are possible and the geometrical form that various minerals take. Because electrons are donated and received, it is the ionic radius of the element that controls the size and determines how atoms fit together in minerals.

Examples
 Coupled substitutions are common in the silicate minerals where  substitutes for  in tetrahedral sites.

For example, when a plagioclase feldspar solid solution series forms, albite (Na Al Si3O8) can change to anorthite (Ca Al2Si2O8) by having  replace . However, this leaves a negative charge that has to be balanced by the (coupled) substitution of  for .
 Despite being nicknamed fool's gold, pyrite is sometimes found in association with small quantities of gold. Gold and arsenic occur as a coupled substitution in the pyrite structure. In the Carlin–type gold deposits, arsenian pyrite contains up to 0.37% gold by weight.

 The possible replacement of  by  in Corundum.
  and  in Haematite
  →   Diopside (MgCaSi2O6) → Jadeite: (NaAlSi2O6 or   
   2 → 2   As in the Spinel groups
 The site being filled to maintain charge does not have to be a substitution. It can also involve filling a site that is normally vacant in order to achieve charge balance. For example, in the amphibole mineral Tremolite - (Ca2(Mg5.0-4.5Fe2+0.0-0.5)Si8O22(OH)2),  replaces  then  can go into a site that is normally vacant to maintain charge balance. This new mineral would then be edenite  a variety of hornblende.
 Bityite’s structure consists of a coupled substitution it exhibits between the sheets of polyhedra; the coupled substitution of beryllium for aluminium within the tetrahedral sites allows a single lithium substitution for a vacancy without any additional octahedral substitutions.  The transfer is completed by creating a tetrahedral sheet composition of Si2BeAl.  The coupled substitution of lithium for vacancy and the beryllium for the tetrahedral aluminium maintains all the charges balanced; thereby, resulting in the trioctahedral end member for the margarite sub-group of the phyllosilicate group.
  Ferrogedrite is related to anthophyllite amphibole and gedrite through coupled substitution of (Al, Fe3+) for (Mg, Fe2+, Mn) and Al for Si.

Ribo (robot). Ribo is the first social humanoid robot which can speak in Bengali. Ribo was created by RoboSUST, a robotics group of Shahjalal University of Science & Technology, Bangladesh. The team was supervised by Muhammed Zafar Iqbal. Bangladesh Science Fiction Society funded for making this humanoid robot Ribo.  Ribo was first appeared in public on 11 December 2015 in a Science Fiction Festival held at the Public Library, Shahbag.

Development history 
The team of 11 members of RoboSUST has been working for many robotics projects since it started. The project SUSTU was the inauguration of forming a humanoid robot. It was able to write its name on a paper and follow the directions that had been shown. Bangladesh Science Fiction Society sponsored for a humanoid robot to represent it on the annual Science Fiction Festival. The team then started to work in full swing in November. With huge possibilities, they had been able to display in time the first social humanoid robot in Bangladesh which was named as Ribo. Ribo has 24 degrees of freedom. It is an upper torso robot. It includes the following features: dances, shows facial expressions, handshakes with people, hands up and down when asked to, makes eye contact to the person it's talking to, makes conversation in Bengali, responds to its name. Ribo can understand the facial gestures of people.

Design 
Ribo is an upper torso humanoid robot capable of interact with people. It features 24 degrees of freedom. It runs on a Core-2 Duo processor of 6GB RAM with another additional processor for hardware control.
Ribo is controlled by Ubuntu and Windows based operating system (OS). The OS powers the robot's multimedia system including a camera, a microphone array with an RGB and depth camera. The microphone array of the Kinect device was used as the sound source for 3D sound localization. Ribo uses text-to-speech synthesis for robotic voice conversion. At right hand, Ribo uses a touch sensor to understand if someone grabbed its hand. Inside the eyeballs, there are cameras to make feel the depth of the eyes. The eyelids help Ribo to blink like a human being and the eyebrows help to show different facial expressions. By using a support vector machine, Ribo can understand facial gestures.

Specifications

Public appearance 
Ribo made its first public appearance at the Bangladesh Science Fiction Festival held in December 2015. In 2016, Ribo was demonstrated in the event of the ICT Expo which was held at Bangabandhu International Conference Center, Dhaka. At the year of 2016 & 2019, the robot was exhibited at the National Science Festival at Sylhet. In 2017, when Sophia (robot) visited Dhaka, it aroused vibe about Ribo. Because it took more than a million dollars to bring Sophia, where Ribo got only one lakh Taka fundings.

In 2018, Ribo was demonstrated in Natore at Chalanbil Utshob.

In 2019, Ribo was exhibited in National Physics Olympiad which was held at Sylhet.

Grow Heathrow. Grow Heathrow was a land squat and community garden in Sipson, west London. It was occupied in 2010 by local people concerned about the possibility of the expansion of Heathrow Airport. It was part of the Transition Network. Half of the site was evicted in 2019 and the other half was evicted in 2021.

Community
Around twenty people lived at Grow Heathrow. The squat was off-grid and low carbon. Electricity came from solar panels and wind turbines. There was a meadow with allotments which were used by both residents and local people. There were also three large greenhouses.

The project stated four main aims:

To further the Heathrow villages as an iconic symbol of community resistance to the economic, ecological and democratic crises.
To develop and promote community and resource autonomy to support long-term community resilience
To establish replicable structures of organisation, which could provide a model for future non-hierarchical, consensus-based communities.
To root the grassroots radical values of the 3rd runway resistance in the Heathrow villages for the long term

Legal struggles
Alongside four other squats, the project was raided by the Metropolitan Police 24 hours before the 2011 Royal Wedding. There were no arrests.

Over four years after the occupation the owners, Lewdown Holdings Limited, took legal action on 23 September 2014 at Uxbridge County Court. The owner was granted possession and the project successfully resisted bailiffs in 2015. Grow Heathrow launched an appeal against eviction which lasted into 2016.

During its legal struggles, Grow Heathrow was supported by the local MP for Hayes and Harlington and Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer John McDonnell who said in 2017 “We need lawful spaces of protest with the values of education and community embedded in them; Grow Heathrow would be a great loss for my constituency in this crucial campaign year against Heathrow airport’s expansion.”

Eviction
In February 2019, the project made an urgent callout for support after losing a court case. An eviction attempt began on 26 February, which resulted in half the project being evicted and half remaining.

On the 8th of March 2021, another call for support against eviction was made. This eviction successfully displaced the remaining occupation, ending Grow Heathrow.
