No Boundaries (contest). No Boundaries is a competition between high schools in the United States. Sponsored by USA Today and NASA, it encourages high school students to learn about careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (the STEM fields).

Students may enter individually, or as a group of up to four. Entrants create a project about a career in STEM, which may vary greatly in format. In 2008, the first-place group of four made a PowerPoint presentation called "It's Electric", about electrical engineering. In 2009, the contest was won by four girls who created a website about astrobiology. The group who won the second-place prize in 2009 made a "cookbook" with recipes for how to become a food scientist for NASA; third place that year created a simple home-made yarn-bound storybook. First place winners receive $2000 to split between members of a group, and a trip to NASA's Kennedy Space Center.  Currently (as of the year 2012), No Boundaries is out of funds and is not supplying the contest or the prize. Though, some schools still enforce this contest without a prize.

International Harvester 1066. The International Harvester 1066 is a farm tractor that was made by International Harvester from 1971 to 1976. The 1066 has a six-cylinder diesel engine and about 105 drawbar and 125 PTO horsepower. The 1066 is significant for its popularity, with over 50,000 units having been built in its six-year run.

Features 

DT-414 engine.
Turbocharged six-cylinder direct start diesel engine.
Hydrostatic power steering.
Dry disc brakes.
Hydraulic assist clutch
Dual pto's (540/1000).
Non synchronized 4 speed transmission with a non synchronized 2 speed range transmission, 16 total forward speeds when equipped with Torque Amplifier.
Dual hydraulics.
Engine HP 105 it has been a myth that some tractors came off the floor with over 150 hp, which was not uncommon. The 414 is sometimes known as a factory hot rod, built and engineered by Jerry Lagod who later formed Hypermax Engineering and set the milestone for the ultimate super stock diesel engine

Cabs
When introduced in 1971 two cabs were available, the "Custom" cab carried over from the previous series and the "Deluxe" cab. Both cabs could be equipped with air conditioning, heat and AM radio.

Updates
In 1975 after the introduction of the 30 series John Deere, IH decided rather than replacing the 66 series they would give the line a "tune-up"
starting with increase of about five horsepower, also IH altered the "Deluxe" cab, it now had just one window on the doors instead of two, the rear window now opened farther and the lower rear window was enlarged. The cab was now painted all red with the roof still being white. Also in 1973 the "custom" cab was dropped along with the optional Hydrostatic transmission version.

Miniature hydraulics. Miniature Hydraulics are copies or models that represent and reproduce regular or standard sized hydraulic systems and components, but in a reduced state, on a small scale, or in a greatly reduced size. True working and functional miniature hydraulics follow the same operating principles and behavioral properties as their standard or regular size hydraulic prototypes, but are done so primarily at reduced sizes and pressures. Although uncommon, miniature hydraulics do exist, and are obtainable through a variety of sources. Miniature hydraulics, mini hydraulics, and micro hydraulics are abbreviated as or otherwise known as M-H.

List of Apple printers. Apple has produced several lines of printers in its history, but no longer produces or supports these devices today. Though some early products use thermal technology, Apple's products can be broadly divided into three lines: ImageWriter (dot matrix), LaserWriter (PostScript laser), and StyleWriter (thermal inkjet).

Early products
Apple's first printer was the Apple Silentype, released in June 1979, shortly after the Apple II Plus. The Silentype was a thermal printer, which used a special paper and provided 80 column output. Also compatible with the Apple III, the Silentype was a rebranded Trendcom 200.

The Apple Dot Matrix Printer (often shortened to Apple DMP) is a printer manufactured by C. Itoh and sold under Apple label in 1982 for the Apple II series, Lisa, and the Apple III. Apple followed this release with a Qume daisy wheel engine, the Apple Letter Quality Printer (also known as the Apple Daisy Wheel Printer), in January 1983.  This printer could print at forty characters per second. Also in 1983, Apple released its only plotter, the Apple Color Plotter. This printer moved and rotated four color pens along the horizontal axis, the device moving the paper into order to allow its pens to render along the vertical axis. The Apple Scribe Printer was a thermal transfer printer, first introduced in 1984 alongside the Apple IIc for a relatively low retail price, and compatible with the Apple IIe computer.

Dot-matrix series

Laser printer series 

The LaserWriter was a laser printer with built-in PostScript interpreter introduced by Apple in 1985. It was one of the first laser printers available to the mass market. In combination with WYSIWYG publishing software like PageMaker, that operated on top of the graphical user interface of Macintosh computers, the LaserWriter was a key component at the beginning of the desktop publishing revolution.

Inkjet series 

The StyleWriter was the first of Apple's line of inkjet serial printers, targeted mainly towards consumers. They produced print quality that was better than the dot matrix ImageWriters, and were cheaper than the LaserWriters. All but a few models contained Canon print engines, a few were rebadged Canon printers, while the last few were rebadged HP DeskJet printers.

The Apple Color Printer was the first color inkjet printer sold by Apple. Introduced in 1993 alongside the StyleWriter II, it was a rebadged Canon BJC-820 printer. Its maximum resolution was 360 DPI and connected to the computer via SCSI. Unlike many inkjet printers of the time, the Apple Color Printer did not suffer from print slowdowns caused by slow communication from the computer performing rasterization, since the SCSI bus is relatively fast. The model was discontinued in 1994 when Apple introduced the Color StyleWriter series of printers.

The Department of Mad Scientists. The Department of Mad Scientists: How DARPA is Remaking Our World, from the Internet to Artificial Limbs, is a book by Michael Belfiore about the history and origins of DARPA. Belfiore describes DARPA's creation as the agency ARPA in Department of Defense and some of its notable contributions to artificial limbs, the Internet, space exploration and robotic automobiles.

Reception

In his review of the book, Tom Simonite says "Belfiore does a good job of exploring the sunny side of the moon that is DARPA", but also notes that the author had no access to DARPA's classified research, which constitutes approximately half of all work. Robin Tatu also observes Belfiore's limited access, but calls the book a "an engaging inquiry into the workings of the agency, its past contributions, and its concerns for future technology." David Pitt describes the book as "a capsule history" that, "for some readers [..] serves as a tantalizing introduction to subject that bears deeper exploration."

Capella Javelin. The Capella Javelin is a family of American open cockpit, high wing, tractor configuration, conventional landing gear-equipped ultralight aircraft that were produced in kit form by Capella Aircraft of Austin, Texas and intended for amateur construction.

The single seat Javelin I was designed to comply with the American FAR 103 ultralight regulations, including that category's maximum  empty weight.

Capella Aircraft went out of business in late 2007, and the type is no longer in production.

Design and development
The Javelin was introduced circa 1999 and was intended to appeal to pilots who wanted to experience totally open-air flight.

The design features an open frame fuselage of welded 4130 steel tubing, with the pilot's and passenger's seats bolted to the frame. The horizontal stabilizer and tail fin are also constructed of welded steel tubes. The wing is framed from riveted aluminium tubing with all flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. The wing is equipped with full span ailerons.

The conventional landing gear includes sprung-steel main gear and a similarly sprung steerable tail wheel. The open cockpit design provides good visibility while taxiing.

The standard engine supplied by the manufacturer for the single seat version was the  Rotax 277, but it was reported that the aircraft was underpowered with that engine installed. The throttle control is of a unique motorcycle grip type.

Original factory kit options included a cockpit pod and windshield, brakes and steel tube powder coating.

The single-seat Javelin was developed into a tandem two seater, designated the Javelin II and then  further developed into the T-Raptor ultralight trainer. The T-Raptor uses a wider and more enclosed fuselage, with optional bubble-windowed doors, to allow cool weather flying and was intended to be marketed to ultralight schools.

Variants
Javelin I
Single seat open cockpit ultralight powered by a  Rotax 277 engine.
Javelin II
Two seats-in-tandem open cockpit ultralight trainer powered by a  Rotax 503 engine. It was reported as being in development in 1998 and forecast to be available at the end of 1998.
T-Raptor
Two seats-in-tandem ultralight trainer powered by a  Rotax 503,  Rotax 582 or  HKS 700E four stroke engine. The T-Raptor has an expanded-width steel cage to provide a more enclosed cockpit and is a development of the Javelin II.

Emmanouil Argyropoulos. Emmanouil Argyropoulos (; 1889 – 4 April 1913) was a Greek pioneer aviator of the early 20th century. Apart from being the first Greek aviator who performed a flight over his homeland, he also became the first casualty of Greek military aviation.

First flight in Greece
Argyropoulos, originally a civil engineer, abandoned his profession and went to Paris in order to study aeronautics. At the end of January 1912, he acquired his pilot license and returned to Greece together with a privately owned Nieuport IV.G 50-hp aircraft. On 8 February 1912, Argyropoulos became the first Greek aviator to perform a flight in Greece, an event that was widely commented upon in the local press. After taking off from the Rouf district of Athens, he performed a 16-minute-long flight around the city, including an overflight of the Acropolis. An hour later he carried out a second flight, this time with Prime Minister Eleftherios Venizelos as his passenger. Venizelos, was enthusiastic about the concept of aerial warfare, and stated that Greece should immediately take advantage of this newly invented weapon.

Balkan Wars and death
When the Balkan Wars broke out in October 1912, he joined the military aviation with the rank of Lieutenant. On 4 April 1913, during a reconnaissance mission, his aircraft, a captured Ottoman Blériot XI, fell from a height of 600 m. while flying over the Langadas region near Thessaloniki. Both Argyropoulos and his passenger, the athlete and poet Konstantinos Manos, were killed. Argyropoulos thus became the first loss of Greek military aviation, and marked the end of air activities in the Balkan Wars.

Capella XS. The Capella XS is a family of American high wing, tractor configuration, cabin aircraft that were produced in kit form by Capella Aircraft of Austin, Texas and intended for amateur construction.

Capella Aircraft went out of business in late 2007, and the series is no longer in production.

Design and development
The single seat SS model was introduced in 1988. All members of the design family were available as optionally conventional landing gear or tricycle gear-equipped aircraft.

The family of aircraft all share common design features, including an enclosed cabin-style fuselage, horizontal stabilizer and tail fin all constructed of welded 4130 steel tubing. The wing is framed from riveted aluminium tubing with all surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. The wing includes flaps and has an optional folding system for transport and storage.

The landing gear arrangement includes sprung-steel main gear and a similarly sprung steerable tail wheel or optional sprung-steel nose wheel.

The single-seat SS model was developed into a line of side-by-side two seaters with different engine and fuselage designs.

Machine-tool dynamometer. A machine-tool dynamometer is a multi-component dynamometer that is used to measure forces during the use of the machine tool. Empirical calculations of these forces can be cross-checked and verified experimentally using these machine tool dynamometers.

With advances in technology, machine-tool dynamometers are increasingly used for the accurate measurement of forces and for optimizing the machining process. These multi-component forces are measured as an individual component force in each co-ordinate, depending on the coordinate system used. The forces during machining are dependent on depth of cut, feed rate, cutting speed, tool material and geometry, material of the work piece and other factors such as use of lubrication/cooling during machining.

Louis Hodes. Louis Hodes (June 19, 1934 – June 30, 2008) was an American mathematician, computer scientist, and cancer researcher.

Early life and computer science work 

Louis Hodes got his Bachelor of Science (B.S.) from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. He got his Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1962, under Hartley Rogers with a thesis on computability. With John McCarthy, in the late 1950s and early 1960s, he helped produce the earliest implementations of the programming language Lisp,
and under Marvin Minsky he did early research on visual pattern recognition in Lisp. He is also credited by some with the idea, and an initial implementation, of logic programming.

Cancer research 

In 1966 he moved into cancer-related research, specifically at National Institutes of Health and later the National Cancer Institute where he turned his interest in visual pattern recognition to medical imaging applications.  He also worked on efficient algorithms for screening chemical compounds for studying chemical carcinogenesis.  His work on models of clustering for chemical compounds was pronounced a "milestone" by the Developmental Therapeutics Program of the National Cancer Institute, for "revolutioniz[ing] the selection of compounds of interest by measuring the novelty of a chemical structure by comparing it to known compounds."
