NITROS Project. The NITROS (Network for Innovative Training on ROtorcraft Safety) project is an ongoing project which began in November 2016 consisting of 12 Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs). It is funded through the European Union's Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) research grant which is an Innovative Training Network (ITN) to support European Joint Doctorates (EJD). The collective aim of this specific MSCA scheme is for fostering new skills by means of excellent initial training of researchers.

NITROS aims to train aerospace engineers in Control Engineering, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Modeling and Simulation, Structural Dynamics and Human perception cognition and action, to address complex solutions for rotorcraft safety. Rotorcraft accident rates remain disproportionately high in comparison with fixed-wing aircraft.

The network is composed of four universities spread over four countries namely: Politecnico di Milano (Italy), Delft University of Technology (Netherlands), University of Liverpool (England) and the University of Glasgow (Scotland). Whilst there are also six international industrial partners involved in helping collaborate: Bristow Helicopters, Civil Aviation Authority, Eurocontrol, Leonardo Helicopter, National Aerospace Laboratory and the Max Planck Institute.

The NITROS project will be presented at the 44th European Rotorcraft Forum in Delft and the subsequent 45th and 46th European Rotorcraft Forums, where the 12 projects will be presented.

Each research project is focused on a problem that affects the safety of the current or innovative rotorcraft configurations.

Fort Slemmer. Fort Slemmer sometimes called Battery Slemmer was one of seven temporary earthwork forts part of the Civil War Defenses of Washington, D.C., during the Civil War built in the Northeast quadrant of the city at the beginning of the Civil War by the Union Army to protect the city from the Confederate Army. From west to east, the forts were as follow: Fort Slocum, Fort Totten, Fort Slemmer, Fort Bunker Hill, Fort Saratoga, Fort Thayer and Fort Lincoln. Unlike other forts, today very little remains of the structure.

Civil War

The fort was named in honor of Lieutenant Adam J. Slemmer. It was built in August 1861 between Fort Totten and Fort Bunker Hill on the east side of Harewood Road just north of The Catholic University of America's Marist Hall. In February 1862, the 20th New York moved in the fort.

The fort was equipped with the following armament:
 Three 32-pounder James guns
 One 8-inch siege howitzer

The following troops garrisoned in the fort:
 20th New York
 Several New Hampshire Heavy Artillery
 150th Ohio National Guard
 Battery G, 3rd United States Artillery

Post Civil War
The fort was abandoned at the end of the civil war in 1865. It fell in disrepair after the war.

International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences. The International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences (ICAS) is a worldwide institution, established as an international forum for individual national aeronautical professional associations.

History
It was formed on 29 January 1957 at a conference in the US. The first ICAS Congress was held in Spain in 1958. Frank Wattendorf, of AGARD, was the first Director.

A second meeting was held in Paris, with Hugh Latimer Dryden of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, and representatives from ONERA (Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales), the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), the WGL (now the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Luft- und Raumfahrt), the Association Française des Ingénieurs et Techniciens de l'Aéronautique (now the Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France), and the Aeronautical Research Institute of Sweden.

Congress
It holds a biennial international congress in September. In 1986 it was held in London. In 2000 the congress was held in North Yorkshire. The 2018 Congress was held by Associação Brasileira de Engenharia e Ciências Mecânicas (ABCM) in Brazil. The 2020 congress will be held in Shanghai, China.

Temernitsky Bridge. Temernitsky Bridge () is a bridge in Rostov-on-Don over the river Don.
It was built in 2007–2010 on the project of engineer Aleksandr Efremushkin. In 2011 the bridge was named Temernitsky after Temernik River, as the bridge's overpass extends along with this river.

Description and history
Temernitsky Bridge (which has designed capacity of about 60 thousand cars per day) provides an alternative to Voroshilovsky bridge (about 46 thousand cars per day) entry to the M4 "Don" highway from Rostov-on-Don towards Krasnodar and Stavropol. It also has a great transport significance for cities Bataysk and Azov.

The bridge was being built at an accelerated pace, in connection with the emergency condition of Voroshilovsky Bridge, which  since June 2008 was opened only for limited traffic. In 2014, because of the probability of collapse of Voroshilovsky Bridge, Rostov-on-Don City Administration decided to block the traffic on this bridge and move it to Temernitsky Bridge.

Since 2014 Temernitsky Bridge runs the route of public buses between Bataisk and Rostov-on-Don. A new scheme of bus traffic was appointed in connection with the closure of the Voroshilovsky Bridge.

In the winter of 2016, a set of measures was taken to clean Temernitsky Bridge, which allowed to minimize the cost of adapting the structure to the spring period.

In 2017 the bridge was repaired.

Ivan Hladush. Ivan Hladush (; , Ivan Dmitrievich Gladush; 24 July 1929 – 6 December 2018) was a Ukrainian militsiya general.

Early life and education
Hladush was born on 24 July 1929 in village of Mishuryn Rih, Verkhnodniprovsk Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Okruha (today in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast). In 1951 he graduated the Dnipropetrovsk Autotransportation Technicum.

Career
Hladush started out in 1951 as an inspector at the State Auto Inspection (GAI). In 1957 Hladush graduated the All-Union Extramural Engineering Institute in Moscow. In 1963 he was in charge of GAI at the Directorate of General Order Security in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. In 1968-1974 Hladush headed the Directorate of General Order Security in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. During that period he graduated the Kyiv College of Ministry of Interior Affairs of USSR (today National Academy of Interior Affairs of Ukraine) in 1970 and in 1973 he received a rank of major general of Militsiya.

In 1974-1977 Hladush was a chief of Directorate of Interior Affairs in Donetsk Oblast. In 1982-1990 he was a minister of Internal Affairs of UkrSSR. In January 1991 Hladush retired as a Colonel General of Militsiya. In 2010 he was awarded a rank of General of Internal Service by the President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych.

In April 1988 Ivan Hladush as a minister of Interior headed a government commission in regards to recent findings in woodlands around Darnytsia. The commission came up with its report announcing that in Bykivnia were killed Soviet people by Nazi-Fascist invaders. It was partially true as there was Darnytsia concentration camp in close vicinity. Later another commission confirmed that Bykivnia was hiding much more.

Fred Gabourie. Fred Gabourie (September 19, 1881 - March 1, 1951) was a technical director and department head.

Gabourie was born in Tweed, Ontario, Canada.  He was a member of the Seneca Indian tribe.  He served in the Spanish–American War.

He worked primarily for Buster Keaton, figuring out how to make Keaton's innovative stunts work.  As one author put it, "Fred Gabourie had the most interesting job in the world:  He solved problems for Buster Keaton."  As technical director, he was responsible for set design, construction, props management, and location scouting.  During this time, he designed the electric house in The Electric House, which featured an automated staircase, library, swimming pool, and dining room.  He located and purchased the ship for The Navigator.  Only after Gabourie found the ship and suggested to Keaton that it would be a great prop to build a movie around did Keaton and his staff come up with a script.  Gabourie also worked out how to accomplish the famous stunt in Steamboat Bill, Jr. in which the front of a house (weighing two tons) falls on Keaton without harming him.

Keaton and Gabourie, working with an architect, co-designed Keaton's lavish Beverly Hills mansion, eventually called the Italian Villa.

Gabourie was also responsible for the ships in the silent version of The Sea Hawk.

Gabourie went to MGM with Keaton but worked on just one picture with him (The Cameraman) before MGM promoted him to construction superintendent, a position he held until he died.

Gabourie's son, Fred Gabourie Jr., played some small parts in film and on TV, but eventually became a judge.
