ACE Moharram Bakhoum. ACE Moharram Bakhoum is a multi-disciplinary engineering and project management consultancy company, based in Egypt.

Operations 
The company operates in 37 countries, working on both private and publicly financed projects.

History 
ACE Moharram Bakhoum was established in 1950 as a private partnership between Ahmed Moharram and Michel Bakhoum. The first projects executed by the partners was a storage area for printing machines constructed in the basement of a building in Cairo, followed by the design of a pharmacological factory. In the 1950s, the partners made their entry into the field of bridge design, for which they later became widely known. By the 1970s, the company witnessed a regional expansion. In 1970, the first phase of the 6th of October Bridge was opened. This bridge, which is considered the main artery of the Egyptian capital, was the first prestressed concrete bridge to be entirely designed, constructed and the construction supervised by Egyptian firms. ACE Moharram Bakhoum was the designer and construction supervisor. By this time, ACE had been involved in numerous high-profile projects in Egypt and the Middle East region, and the expansion of its activities to include other disciplines was necessary. Currently, ACE Moharram Bakhoum is one of the largest engineering offices in Egypt. In 2020, ACE Moharram Bakhoum won the International Project of the Year Award by MEED for the Rod El Farag Cable Stayed Bridge, over the River Nile.

Hachinohe Thermal Power Station. is a liquefied natural gas (LNG)-fired thermal power station operated by Tohoku Electric in the city of Hachinohe, Aomori, Japan. The facility is located on the Pacific coast.

History
At the time Tohoku Electric was founded, all of its power generation facilities were hydroelectric power plants, mostly concentrated along the Agano River basin in Fukushima Prefecture. As a result, northeastern Japan faced chronic power shortages. As the Hachinohe area was selected as a center for heavy industry by the Japanese government, industrial power consumption was expected to increase, and Tohoku Electric started construction on its first thermal power plant in September 1956. The plant was completed in June 1958. A total of four units were completed.  Units 1 and 2 were abolished in 1982 and Unit 4 in 2006, due to aging equipment and a decline in operating rates.

After the 2011 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, Unit 5 was rushed into service to make up for a shortfall in electrical generating capacity. Unit 5 was subsequently upgraded to an advanced combined cycle plant by installing an additional waste heat recovery boiler, steam turbine, and generator. At that time, it was also converted from diesel fuel to LNG. The upgraded plant came back on line on August 7, 2014 and its conversion to LNG was completed by July 1, 2015.

On August 7, 2014, the combined cycle of Unit 5 was completed and commercial operation began [4]. Diesel fuel was initially used as fuel, but on November 28, 2012, JX Nippon Oil & Energy signed a supply contract for natural gas, and it was announced that it would be supplied from the company's Hachinohe LNG terminal [5]. The switch to natural gas was implemented on July 1, 2015, and improved power generation capacity and thermal efficiency [6].

Unit 3 was abolished on July 1, 2016 due to aging equipment.

The 1.5 MW Hachinohe Solar Power Plant was built on the site of the scrapped thermal power units and started operation on December 20, 2011

Hanne Vedel. Hanne Elisabet Vedel (born 23 January 1933) is a Danish weaver who has created her own textiles since 1955, using natural raw materials such as silk, wool and cotton. In 1979, after acquiring Spindegården from Paula Trock, she moved the establishment to Aabenraa, making it her design and production facility. Her fabrics have been widely used in Denmark and abroad, for churches, courts of law and banks. In 1952, Finn Juhl used her materials for the upholstery and curtains when designing the United Nations Trusteeship Council in New York. They were reapplied in the 2013 renovation.

Early life
Born on 23 January 1933, in Skive, Hanne Elisabet Vedel was the daughter of the folk high school principal Anders Aaby Vedel (1878–1939) and the restaurateur Helene Frederikke Solmer (1895–1978). She was the youngest of five children. She attended Rødding Friskole and a folk high school in Norway. In 1949, she was trained in weaving as an apprentice with Cis Fink in Aabenraa. In 1951, she continued her education at a folk high school in Finland. In 1955, she married the architect Jens Peder Dall (1916–1994).

Career
While in Finland, she worked for an arts and crafts business in Helsinki where she was trained by Uhra Simberg Ehrstrøm, a textile artist. She also attended evening courses with the Finnish designer Kaj Franck.

On returning to Denmark in 1953, she was employed by Paula Trock at Spindegården in Askov. She opened her workshop in Aabenraa in 1955. In 1970, on taking over management of Spindegården, she moved the firm to Aabenraa where she produced textiles with traditional Danish designs, including carpets, curtains and upholstery. Her designs are simple but attractive, often with striped patterns with few colours. She has also developed knitted goods and other textiles in collaboration with other artists, including Vibeke Lind, Pia Hedegaard, Anne Abildtrup, Kirsten Toftegaard and Johanne Heide. Her naturally produced materials that could not be obtained elsewhere proved popular with those designing folk costumes.

In the 1980s and 1990s, Vedel gained recognition for the textiles she created for decorating churches and cathedrals throughout the country. They have also been used to decorate courtrooms and company buildings at home and abroad. In 1952, Finn Juhl used her materials for the upholstery and curtains when designing the United Nations Trusteeship Council in New York. They were reapplied in the 2013 renovation.

Juno-class corvette. Juno-class corvettes were a group of two ships built for the Royal Navy during the 1860s in London to a design by Sir Edward Reed.

Characteristics and construction
They were designed to carry troops with the accommodation arranged with the soldiers on the lower deck, and the sailors on the upper deck. Juno  was built by Deptford Dockyard and laid down in 1866, launched on 28 November 1867 and completed in May 1868. It displacement was 2,083 tons, its crew 200, top speed it achieved was 10.53 knots. Armaments for the ship were usually two 7-inch MLR and four 64-pounder cannons, later being rearmed with eight 64-pounders. Thalia was the last ship to be built at Woolwich Royal Dockyard, laid down in 1866 and launched 14 July 1869 and commissioned for the Royal Navy in May 1870. It had a displacement of 2,240 tons, its crew numbered 200, top speed it achieved was 11.13 knots, and it was armed with two 7-inch MLR  and four 64-pounder cannons. It was later being rearmed with six  64-pounders.

Ships

Note Thalia was the last ship to be built at Woolwich Dockyard, and received the engine intended originally for the cancelled (1864) wooden frigate Ister.

Service history
The Surveyor to the Royal Navy during 1863 to 1870, Sir Edward Reid was the designer of these two wooden screw corvettes, HMS Juno and HMS Thalia. Both ships were completed by 1870 compliant to British demands at that time to match the French, American, and Russian small ships at that time. The ships were made alongside 35 others in the 1867-1868 programme written in the Parliamentary Debates. Both ships were included in the ¨op¨ in the 1878 official list. At that time Juno was in China and Thalia was in the Devonport Dockyard.  Although they were regarded as ¨Fighting Ships¨. They shared this classification with Iris, Mercury, and the torpedo boat . In 1882, Thalia was named for ¨Particular¨ which meant at that time she was going to be fitted to be a troopship. In 1886, Thalia was refitted to be a troopship, hulked in 1891 and later in 1915 to be a depot ship. Juno was sold in 1887.

ESD Alliance. The  Electronic System Design Alliance (ESD Alliance) is the international association of companies that provide tools and services for electronic design automation.  Until  2016 it was known as the Electronic Design Automation Consortium (EDA Consortium, EDAC). In 2018, the ESD Alliance became a SEMI Technology Community.

It defines itself as "a forum to address technical, marketing, economic and legislative issues affecting the entire industry. It acts as the central voice to communicate and promote the value of the semiconductor design industry as a vital component of the global electronics industry".

The 2016 name change reflects the expansion of its charter to address the changes in the industry towards a more system-oriented approach, embracing both integrated circuits design (its past focus) and electronic systems design.

The organization, then known as EDAC, was established in 1987 and incorporated in 1992.

In 1994 the organization established the Phil Kaufman Award to recognize people  by their contributions to electronic design automation.

Shin-Sendai Thermal Power Station. is an LNG-fired thermal power station operated by Tohoku Electric in Miyagino-ku, Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. The facility is located on the Pacific coast near the Port of Sendai.

History
The Shin-Sendai Thermal Power Station was built in 1959 to supply power to the Sendai metropolis and surrounding Miyagi Prefecture. Unit 1 started operation in August 1971, followed by Unit 2 in June 1973. In 2006, Tohoku Electric announced a plan to abolish both units and to build two new high-efficiency More Advanced combined cycle (MACC) power generation facilities to reduce carbon emissions and lower operating costs.

Operations were temporarily suspended due to damage caused by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami in March 2011. Unit 1 was already stopped for maintenance, but Unit 2 was forced to make an emergency shutdown when its turbine house was flooded by the tsunami. Unit 1 resumed full output on December 27, but a decision was reached not to repair Unit 2 and it was subsequently scrapped by the end of the year.

Along with the new power generation units, a new LNG receiving facility was constructed. This facility was purpose-built to accommodate the Q-Flex series of liquefied natural gas carriers from Qatar.

Unit 3-1 came on line in December 2015, followed by Unit 3–2 in July 2016. From July 18, 2017, the rated output of Unit 3 was upgraded from 980,000 kW to 1,046,000 kW due to operational experience and software modifications.
