Shaun McCutcheon. Shaun McCutcheon is a businessman and electrical engineer from suburban Birmingham, Alabama. He is the inventor and developer of innovative industrial electric devices including a large-scale imploding circuit breaker and a multi-polar electric motor and generator.  He is also the successful plaintiff in the Supreme Court case McCutcheon v. FEC, a landmark campaign finance decision.

Career 
After graduating from the Georgia Institute of Technology, McCutcheon began working as an electrical engineer, installing motor drives and electrical equipment for manufacturing industries.

In 1996, he founded Coalmont Electrical Development Corporation, an engineering firm specializing in complex electrical systems. McCutcheon currently serves as Coalmont’s CEO.

McCutcheon v. FEC 
McCutcheon rose to national prominence when he filed a lawsuit against the Federal Election Commission (FEC) in 2012. McCutcheon specifically challenged the FEC’s “aggregate contribution limits,” which had imposed a cap on contributions an individual could make over a two-year period to national party and federal candidate committees.

With the help of the attorney and campaign finance expert Dan Backer and the Republican National Committee, McCutcheon’s case rose to the Supreme Court. In 2014, the Court ruled in McCutcheon’s favor by a 5-4 margin, claiming the FEC’s aggregate contribution limits violated the First Amendment.

Political activity 
McCutcheon is a Republican donor and conservative activist. In May 2020, McCutcheon filed to run for president as a Libertarian.

In popular culture
McCutcheon made frequent appearances as himself on news programs and in other forums to defend the rights of donors to give to politicians.

In film and television
On episode 4 of the satirical comedy show Who Is America? the character Erran Morad (as portrayed by Sacha Baron Cohen) teaches Shaun McCutcheon how to defend an office from Islamic terrorists by wielding pork and a picture of two men apparently having anal sex as shields.

Deanie Parrish. Marie Odean Bishop Parrish (February 25, 1922 – February 24, 2022), known as Deanie Parrish (sometimes spelt as Parish) was a US air force pilot who served as a WASP pilot during WWII. She was known for being one of Florida's first female air force aviators. She joined the air force aged 21, and after earning her wings, worked as an engineering test pilot at Greenville air force base. She later retrained to tow target planes during training exercises.

She married a career USAF pilot and had two daughters. She spent much of her life after the WASP's were disbanded as a hospital volunteer. In later life she worked to commemorate the efforts made by female pilots towards the war effort during WWII.

Her work directly resulted in the Women Airforce Service Pilots being awarded a Congressional Gold Medal in 2010, she accepted the award on behalf of the 1074 WASP aviators. Deanie was inducted into the WAI Pioneer Hall of Fame in 2015. Parish has been highly influential in the efforts to get the work of the WASP's recognised, and has organised several websites, written books and created initiatives to achieve this.

The medal ceremony on capitol hill was attended by over 200 surviving WASP personnel. The award comes 65 years after the service was disbanded. The WASP's (known as "fly girls") were volunteer pilots who flew military aircraft around America during the second world war to allow more USAF pilots to fly frontline missions in Europe, they were recognised as a military group in 1977, and their contribution to the war effort recognised with the Congressional Gold Medal in 2010. The medal was presented by congressional officials and accepted by Deanie Parish on behalf of the WASP's.

Parrish died on February 24, 2022, one day before her 100th birthday.

Torus fusion. Torus fusion (tofu) is a proprietary computer network topology for supercomputers developed by Fujitsu. It is a variant of the torus interconnect. The system has been used in the K computer and the Fugaku supercomputer (and their derivatives).

Tofu has a six-dimensional mesh/torus topology, a scalability of over 100,000 nodes, and full-duplex links that have a peak bandwidth of 10 GB/s (5 GB/s per direction). Each node is connected to its own InterConnect Controller (ICC) chip, which contains four Tofu interfaces (one for the node and three for connecting to other ICC chips) and a router.

Software support
Tofu's six-dimensional mesh/torus topology is abstracted by software to appear as a three-dimensional torus; it is supported by a Tofu-optimized version of the open-source Open MPI Message Passing Interface library. Users can create application programs adapted to either a one-, two-, or three-dimensional torus network.

Alfred W. Szlumper. Alfred Weeks Szlumper CBE (24 May 1858 – 11 November 1934), was a British railway engineer. He was the President of the Permanent Way Institution and the Chief Engineer of the London and South Western Railway and later the Southern Railway company.

Biography

Early life
Szlumper was born in Milford, Pembrokeshire, on 24 May 1858, the son of Albert Szlumper, a Polish tailor, and his second wife, Sally Harris. He had an older brother of the same name who died in 1856. After attending the University of Wales, he served as apprentice to his older half-brother, Sir James Szlumper who was also a noted railway engineer.

Early career 
In 1880, Szlumper was appointed as engineering assistant on the South Eastern and Chatham Railway. He served for two years before moving to the Great Indian Peninsula Railway as a resident engineer.

London and South Western Railway 

In 1884, he took a position as engineering assistant on the London and South Western Railway. He led a series of projects to widen the main line in London and in the Woking-Basingstoke area. During this work he was promoted to resident engineer. In 1892 he presented a paper to the Institution of Civil Engineers on his work reconstructing Vauxhall station. In 1897 he was promoted again to divisional engineer for London and in 1914 he became Chief Engineer of the railway, replacing J.W. Jacomb-Hood. He oversaw the building of the Bordon Light Railway in 1902, the remodelling of Clapham Junction station which was carrying over 1,000 trains a day, and the first electrification scheme carried out by the L&SWR between 1913 and 1916. He also completed the major reconstruction of Waterloo station in 1914–15.

During the First World War, Szlumper also worked for the War Office and the Admiralty. In 1920 he was made a CBE. In 1922 he was elected President of the Permanent Way Institution.

Southern Railway 
In 1924, the London & South Western Railway became part of the larger Southern Railway, and Szlumper retained the post of Chief Engineer in the larger company. He oversaw the reconstructions of the Barnes, Kingston and Richmond bridges and the Feltham goods yard.

Retirement 
Szlumper retired in June 1927. During his career he was awarded the Miller Prize, the Trevithick and Telford Premiums by the Institute of Civil Engineers. He also won the Telford Medal for his description of the "Widening and Improvement Works London and South Western Railway Metropolitan Extension". He died on 11 November 1934 in Richmond.

Family 
His son, Gilbert Szlumper became the Assistant General Manager of the Southern Railway in 1925, and became General Manager in 1934.

Softwall. softwall is a flexible room divider designed by Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen of molo. Made from paper or nonwoven polyethylene, the walls use a structured honeycomb geometry to bend, curve, expand and contract. The honeycomb structure also provides acoustic absorption. Part of a modular system, each softwall can connect to another by magnetic end panels. The walls have been used to create booths for trade fairs, pop-up retail, sculptural art installations, backdrops for performances, as well as to divide space in living and working environments.

In 2003, softwall was welcomed into the Museum of Modern Art’s permanent collection. Two years later, it was presented with the INDEX Award for Design to Improve Life.

Design

Forsythe and MacAllen first conceived softwall as a method for repurposing architectural shells to provide shelter for the homeless. The concept grew into a modular system of space partitions that could quickly and easily transform space to suit diverse uses, whether in small live/work studios or large scale environments.

softwall reflects molo’s interest in sustainable building methods and flexible living. Both the paper and polyethylene textile used for the soft collection are 100% recyclable. These materials are paired with non-toxic fire retardants, adhesives, and inks. By organizing the paper or textile layers with a honeycomb structure, the material takes on strength to create freestanding partitions and the flexibility to adapt to or shape space. The pleated surface and interior cells, which facilitate movement, also absorb sound.
