BYD C9. The BYD C9 is a battery electric coach manufactured by the Chinese automaker BYD.

History 
Since 2010, BYD Auto, the global leader in electric vehicles, builds buses with electric drive.

The construction of battery buses focused until 2015 exclusively on city bus used in short-distance traffic with the usually reduced level of comfort in these vehicles. With the presentation of the BYD C9 in January 2015 at the bus fair UMA Motorcoach EXPO in New Orleans, for the first time an electric touring coach was introduced, which is also suitable for urban traffic.

In Europe, the vehicle was first presented in June 2016 at the French trade fair transport publics. The first buyer was Green Yvelines ; another bus company near Paris, which has ordered twelve vehicles. Like other major cities, the city of Paris intends to stop diesel vehicles from entering the city center starting in 2020. In China, around 100 vehicles will be used (as of the end of 2016).

Since October 2018 Flixbus uses the C9 with 40 seats on the route between Frankfurt and Mannheim via Frankfurt Airport and Heidelberg in regular service, where it operates four times a day. The distance is ; the bus has a range of . The bus is charged once or twice a day and during the night with 2 × 40 kW with green electricity.

His Name Was Robert. His Name Was Robert () is a 1967 Soviet science fiction film directed by Ilya Olshvanger.

Plot
The scientist Sergey Sergeevich (Oleg Strizhenov) creates an experimental humanoid robot (also played by Oleg Strizhenov), designed, according to his plan, to master the far space inaccessible to humans, and gives him the name Robert. Robert looks like his creator, like a twin. Sergey Sergeevich decides to test the robot in the human environment and sends it on a date with the bride of one of his employees Tatiana (Marianna Vertinskaya). However, Robert "falls in love" with her and readily fulfills all, even the most ridiculous and dangerous tasks of the girl, because he understands all her orders literally. The robot goes out of control - it even disappears from the field of view of scientists, going after Tanya in a mountain camp. There, at the resort, he settles in a room with a certain citizen Knopkin (Mikhail Pugovkin).

Dangerous social and technical consequences are imminent. Scientists rush to search and find it, but their questioning leads to everyone starting to take Knopkin for that same robot, which leads to many mishaps.

Tanya, meanwhile, gives Robert too many human tasks which he can not fulfill. Its circuits fail from overvoltage and it breaks. The inventors of the robot find it and take it for regeneration. Scientists understand that using a robot in an unknown and unpredictable environment is unsuitable, and a man is preparing for the space flight.

Henry R. Hazlehurst. Henry R. Hazlehurst (1815-1900) was an American civil engineer. Long employed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, he also helped build the first rail link between Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and points south.

Hazlehurst was born in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, England, on March 2, 1815, a son of Richard Hunter Hazlehurst of Mount Holly, New Jersey, and Maria Eleanor Blagden of London, England. In 1819, the family moved to Salem, New Jersey.

In the late 1820s, Hazlehurst served as one of the assistants to Benjamin H. Latrobe, a civil engineer who helped survey the Baltimore and Ohio's routes to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia; and Washington, D.C. Latrobe was let go after the work was completed, and in 1835 became chief engineer of the Baltimore and Port Deposit Railroad, with Hazlehurst again among his assistants. In the late 1830s, the B&PD was merged into the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore Railroad, forming the first rail link from Philadelphia to Baltimore. (This main line survives today as part of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor.) Hazlehurst's service as a railroad builder is noted on the 1839 Newkirk Viaduct Monument in Philadelphia, although his name is misspelled.

Hazlehurst married Elizabeth McKim, granddaughter of PW&B executive John McKim Jr.; their children included George Blagden Hazlehurst (1855-1919), an engineer who went to work for the B&O and ultimately rose to the position of General Superintendent of Motive Power.

In mid-century, Hazlehurst and James Murray, another former assistant of Latrobe's, took over the Vulcan Works machine shop in Baltimore and founded Murray & Hazlehurst, a mechanical engineering and fabrication firm. Among other things, the firm built engines for steamships, including the two oscillating engines of the wooden side-wheel screw steamer SS Republic, built in 1849 for Baltimore Steam Packet Company. In the 1850s, the firm cast several 65-foot lighthouses of cast iron for the U.S. Treasury Department, which then had charge of navigational aids, including Biloxi Light, Matagorda Island Light, and the first Point Bolivar Light.

Hazlehurst died on February 21, 1900, in Baltimore.

Brooke Owens. Dawn Brooke Owens (July 11, 1980 – June 24, 2016) was an American pilot and space policy expert. She worked with NASA, the Federal Aviation Administration and the White House. The Brooke Owens Fellowship was established in 2017 to honour the considerable contributions Owens made to the American space industry.

Education 
Owens was born in Trona, just outside Death Valley National Park in 1980. She was inspired to study aerospace engineering because of the open sky, and grew up fascinated by space travel. She studied at Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University, Prescott, on a full scholarship, and graduated in 2002.

Career 
Owens was considered an aerospace pioneer. She worked at the Johnson Space Center and the Federal Aviation Administration. Owens was enlisted as an intern at X Prize Foundation whilst completing a Masters at International Space University. She was told by Peter Diamandis that during the summer internship she was going to "live, drink [and] breathe spaceships". She attended meetings about Personal Spaceflight at SpaceX headquarters with Elon Musk. At X Prize Foundation Owens was appointed Director of Team Relations & Special Projects and ran an internship program for young professionals.

She was appointed as Space Industry Analyst by the Office of Management and Budget. As early as 2009, she used a Twitter account to keep people informed about commercial spaceflight and recruit a new generation of space fans. Owens was mentored by Lori Garver, former Deputy Administrator of NASA. She worked with Students for the Exploration and Development of Space to discuss the Federal Aviation Administration's role in commercial spaceflight and space tourism. Her mentor was Patti Grace Smith. Owens attended the 2014 World Technology Summit in New York.

Owens died in 2016 aged 35 after suffering from breast cancer. Owens supported several charities, including Aidchild.

In 2017, Lori Garver (NASA, ALPA), Will Pomerantz (Virgin Galactic) and Cassie Lee (Vulcan Inc.) created a program to pay tribute to Owens. The Brooke Owens Fellowship is volunteer-led and provides sponsored internships and mentoring for women undergraduate students interested in a career in aerospace.

Ethiopian Electric Power. Ethiopian Electric Power () is an Ethiopian electrical power industry and state-owned electric producer. It is engaged in development, investment, construction, operation, and management of power plants, power generation and power transmission. The company is a main key in the Ethiopian energy sector.

Ethiopian Electric Power owns and operates the Ethiopian national power grid with all high voltage power transmission lines above 66 kV including all attached electrical substations and almost all power plants within the national power grid (with the exception of some co-generation power plants belonging to the state-owned Ethiopian Sugar Corporation). Ethiopian Electric power is almost the state monopoly in generating electric power for the national power grid, although Ethiopia also allows independent power producers to construct and to operate power plants for delivering power to the national grid since 2017.

Electric power distribution and the operation of power transmission lines of ≤66 kV within the national power grid is not part of the activities of Ethiopian Electric Power, that is done by the also state-owned sister company Ethiopian Electric Utility.

Small and isolated self-contained power generation systems and power plants not attached to the national power grid do also exist in Ethiopia with generation capacities of up to 5MWe. These local power producers do not belong to Ethiopian Electric Power and can be privately owned or owned by regional authorities. The power transmission and power distribution from those self-contained power plants is not part of the business operations of Ethiopian Electric Power either.

History 
The company was formed in 1956 as the Ethiopian Electric Light & Power Authority (EELPA), which bundled all Ethiopian activities around electricity in a single organization. In 1996, EELPA was split into the Ethiopia Electric Authority (EEA), taking over all regulating activities and a company, Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation (EEPCo), bundling all activities from power generation to household delivery. In 2013, EEPCo was again split up into two companies, Ethiopian Electric Utility and Ethiopian Electric Power. Ethiopian Electric Power was formed by Council of Ministers Regulation No.302/2013.

The first (2013) CEO of Ethiopian Electric Power was Azeb Asnake, replaced in August 2018 by Abraham Belay. In 2016, Ethiopian Electric Power had more than 3500 employees.
