Dennis Sabre. The Dennis Sabre is a purpose-built fire engine produced by Dennis Specialist Vehicles of Guildford, Surrey, England from 1995 to 2007. It was the last full-size fire appliance produced by the company before its closure in 2007.

Features
Built as a low-cost alternative to the Dennis Rapier with increased equipment load capacity, the Sabre was available in three sizes: Sabre, Sabre ML, Sabre XL, with most of the coachbuilding on these chassis being undertaken by John Dennis Coachbuilders of Guildford, England. Over the Sabre's thirteen year production run it underwent several subtle styling changes, mainly to the grille, and later shared styling similarities with the compact Dennis Dagger. Production ceased in 2007 with the closure of Dennis Specialist Vehicles. 

Like the Rapier, the Sabre is powered by a Cummins C Series turbocharged six-cylinder diesel engine and has an Allison MD five-speed automatic transmission. It also uses a double-wishbone suspension with semi-elliptical multileaf and coil springs with telescopic dampers, and the gearing allows a governed top speed of . The Sabre holds  of water and seats six people in a stainless steel tilting cab.

Operators of the Dennis Sabre include fire brigades in the West Midlands and North East England, Nottinghamshire, Hereford and Worcester, the city of Dublin and the Hong Kong Fire Services Department. The Dublin Fire Brigade are unique in ordering the only Sabre turntable ladders on the Sabre HD (Heavy Duty) chassis, while the Sabre HD was also popular with the Singapore Civil Defence Force as a conventional fire engine. Sabres were also sold to fire brigades in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, South Africa and the Netherlands.

Integrated Architecture Framework. The Integrated Architecture Framework (IAF) is an enterprise architecture framework that covers business, information, information system and technology infrastructure. This framework has been developed by Capgemini since the 1990s, from the experience of practicing architects on projects for clients across the group. The first version was released in 1996 and was based on the Zachman Framework and Spewak's ideas about Enterprise Architecture Planning. Since Version 1.0 released in 1996 IAF has been developed by Capgemini's internal global architecture community drawing from the experience of practising architects. Now in its 6th edition, IAF provides alignment considering all relevant artefacts.

It's domains are: 
Business Architecture - people, process and organisation
Information Architecture 
Information Systems - applications
Technology Infrastructure - infrastructure
Governance 
Security
Sustainability 

It has four levels of abstraction:
Why - Contextual 
What - Conceptual
How - Logical
With What - Physical

Istanbul metalworkers' strike of 2008–2009. The Istanbul metalworkers strike of 2008–2009 was a strike by metalworkers at a sintering plant in Istanbul, Turkey. A dispute arose between workers, represented by Birlesik-Metal (the metalworkers' union), and Sinter Metal Technologies (SMT), the company which owns the plant, in December 2008 when plans for extensive job cuts were announced.

Background
The SMT plant is located in Ümraniye, a working class district of Istanbul. Workers at the plant have described poor working conditions, long hours, and low wages. On 19 December 2008, management at the plant announced the loss of 37 jobs. On 22 December 2008, management announced plans for the loss of a further 400 jobs and locked the workers out of the plant.

Strike
The workers responded to the initial lay-offs by joining the union, Birlesik-Metal, and staging a protest outside the plant. On 22 December 2008, workers responded to the lockout by climbing the gate and occupying the plant for two days. Since that time the workers have been picketing the plant to protest against the job losses.

Anybots. Anybots Inc. is an American robotics company based in Santa Clara, California. It was founded in 2001 by Trevor Blackwell.

History
The company was incorporated as Anybots Inc. by Trevor Blackwell in 2001. David Rogan later became CEO in July 2012.

Robotic Products

Q(X) 

Q(X) (also known as the QX) was a 2013 virtual presence robot from Anybots. It could support a 21-inch display or 2x 15.6-inch screens. It provided HD video, a 64x zoom camera, and audio capabilities. It was the first product from Anybots that did not feature its laser pointer as a standard.

 
However, its modular design allowed for customer-specified payloads and alternate conferencing systems to be included.

QB 

QB was a two-wheeled, gyroscopically stabilized remote telepresence unit driven via a web browser. The user was able to select from a range of bots located around the world, and drive it from the website. The end user was required to have power, Wi-Fi or 3G/4G. This product featured a touchscreen display, speaker and microphone and a laser pointer.
 
Intended applications included marketing, and various telepresence tasks, such as for remote experts, remote lobby receptionists, museum guides, education, translation services, remote property tours by real estate agents, exhibition attendants and security patrols, as well as the more general business meeting presence.

It could also have become useful for the handicapped, severely disabled, and sick children, according to marketing material.

Anybots could be purchased in the United States, Japan, and Europe.

QA 
QA, which debuted at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show, was the first of Anybots' two telepresence Robots. ,   It balanced on two wheels, like a Segway, had 5-megapixel cameras, two-way audio and a laser pointer for gesturing. The user could connect to QA via Wi-Fi.

The robot was never produced commercially.

Dexter 
Dexter was a dynamically balancing bipedal humanoid robot research project. It was made to learn walking and jumping, with its feet clearing the ground for a third of a second. Because it uses pneumatics as actuators, its joints were compliant and provided a springy restoring force, much like a human's tendons, allowing it much greater capability to deal with obstacles.

Monty 

Monty was a telemanipulation prototype. It could pick things up with an 18 degree of freedom hand and was operated remotely through the use of a suit that included a special glove.

PIK-15. The PIK-15 Hinu is a light aircraft developed in Finland in the 1960s for use as a glider tug. It was a low-wing cantilever monoplane of conventional design with an enclosed cockpit and fixed, tailwheel undercarriage. The cockpit had two seats, side-by-side, and the PIK-15 was intended to have a secondary role as a trainer. Construction was of wood throughout.

Design work began in 1960, with the first prototype built two years later and flying on 29 August 1964. Six examples were listed on the Finnish Civil Aviation Authority registry in 2011.

PIK-19 Muhinu. 

The PIK-19 Muhinu was a light aircraft developed in Finland in the early 1970s for use as a glider tug and flight trainer. It was a low-wing cantilever monoplane of conventional configuration, with an enclosed cockpit and fixed, tricycle undercarriage. Its construction was of composite materials throughout, a novel approach at the time. When the PIK-19 flew for the first time in 1972, it was only the fourth aircraft in the world made of these materials.

The project was undertaken as a joint venture by the Finnish government and the Helsinki University of Technology. Its "PIK" designation belongs to a sequence of designations applied to the aircraft designed and built by the university's gliding club, Polyteknikkojen Ilmailukerho, although this was not a project by the club. Design work commenced in 1969 under the leadership of Jukka Tervamäki, Ilkka Rantasalo and Pekka Tammi and the prototype flew on 26 March 1972. Plans for production in series were never realised, and the single prototype was the only example ever built. Over the next 21 years, it accumulated 5217 hours of flying time and some 40,000 glider tows. It was destroyed in a crash in June 1994 when the engine failed at low altitude.

Avro 511. The Avro 511 was designed as a fast scouting aircraft just before the First World War. Modified, it became the Avro 514. Though it had innovative features, development did not continue after the start of hostilities.

Design and development
The Avro 511 was designed as a fast scout for military use at a time (1913) when the role of aircraft in war was first emerging. It was a single-seat wood-and-canvas biplane. The fuselage was of square cross-section and carried Avro's characteristic "comma" rudder, with no fin. The wings were heavily staggered and had pronounced sweepback, both features intended to improve stability. They were not constructed with the usual span-length spars, but used a cellular approach. The interplane struts were not the usual single-piece shaped rods, but built up multi-piece, wide chord structures covered in canvas. There were conventional midsection "N" type struts between the fuselage and the upper wing. Ailerons were carried on both upper and lower wings. Most unusually for its time, the inboard lower wing featured landing flaps, so the 511 landed at a sedate 35 mph (56 km/h).

The single rotary Gnome Monosoupape was neatly cowled, though this was later modified to improve cooling. Mainwheels were mounted on a single axle plus centre-skid undercarriage and there was a tailskid.

Later in 1914 the 511 was modified with a new pair of wings with no sweepback and a V-form (cranked axle), skidless main undercarriage, becoming the Avro 514.

Operational history
The Avro 511 was on static display at the Olympia Aero Show in London in March 1914 and was entered for the Aerial Derby Race around London in May. The race was postponed by bad weather. Though not as fast as had been estimated (95-100 mph/150–160 km/h), it was entered for the postponed race in June after modification into the Avro 514, but a mechanical failure while taxiing prevented participation.

Repaired, the 514 flew successfully in July 1914, but no further development was undertaken.

Avantix B8070. Avantix B8070, more commonly known as Avantix MultiTicket was a passenger-operated railway ticket issuing system,  installed at British railway stations from 1999 onwards. The machines were available as upgrades to the Ascom B8050 Quickfare or as new builds.

The machine was developed by Sema Group, later SchlumbergerSema and then Atos Origin.

Most machines were withdrawn during 2007 and 2008. The last Avantix B8070 was withdrawn in January 2009. The last B870 was withdrawn in North America by NJ TRANSIT in 2011.

Introduction of the Avantix B8070

A pilot Avantix B8070 was trialled at the East Croydon railway station in 1998. The first machines in live use went into service on Thameslink stations, starting with St Albans. Other significant deployments followed on South West Trains, at West Anglia Great Northern stations between Kings Lynn and Peterborough to London King's Cross and on c2c. Small numbers of machines were deployed at other stations, including Leeds, Manchester Piccadilly and London Paddington.

Details of the machine
The user interface comprised an ATM-style display screen with hardware buttons for selecting menu items displayed on each side of the screen.

B8070 machines were fitted with an industrial PC connected to the UK rail wide area network. This offered a significant advantage over the B8050 in support terms, giving the ability to connect to each machine from a central location and:
 update fares 
 change the tickets on offer
 diagnose faults

A significant advantage of the Avantix B8070 over the Ascom B8050 was the ability to handle credit card payments. Initially, this was by reading the magnetic stripe of the credit card, but this was updated to handle Chip and PIN cards with the addition of a Hypercom Chip and PIN card reader and pin pad.

The software application could handle tickets to all GB destinations. However, to reduce scrolling through lists of stations, these were in practice limited to the 200 most popular destinations from the station, plus all of the London Underground destinations.

Ticket stock

Avantix B8070 offered the standard centre stripe mag encoded orange CCST stock for singles and returns, and also the green season ticket stock. Receipts were printed on a white tally roll.

Branding

Several train operating companies took the opportunity to customise the front of the machine with branded graphics.

Planing (shaping). Planing is a manufacturing process of material removal in which the workpiece reciprocates against a stationary cutting tool producing a plane or sculpted surface.  Planing is analogous to shaping.  The main difference between these two processes is that in shaping the tool reciprocates across the stationary workpiece.  Planing motion is the opposite of shaping. Both planing and shaping are rapidly being replaced by milling.

The mechanism used for this process is known as a planer. The size of the planer is determined by the largest workpiece that can be machined on it. The cutting tools are usually carbide tipped or made of high speed steel and resemble those used in facing and turning.

Process 
In shaping, the tool is brought into position with the workpiece. The tool then repeatedly moves in a straight line while the workpiece is incrementally fed into the line of motion of the tool, this produces a flat, smooth, and sculpted surface. For shaped pieces the tool reciprocates across the stationary workpiece. The tools are usually tilted or lifted after each stroke. This is done hydraulically or manually in order to prevent the tool surface from chipping when the workpiece travels back across.

Workpiece geometry
Planing can be used to produce flat surfaces, as well as  cross-sections with grooves and notches, are produced along the length of workpiece. Shaping is basically the same as planing, except the workpiece is usually smaller, and it is the tool that moves and not the workpiece.
Planing can be used to produce horizontal, vertical, or inclined flat surfaces on workpieces usually too large for shaping. Shaping is used not only for flat surfaces, but also for external or internal surfaces (either horizontal or inclined). Curved and irregular surfaces can also be produced by using special attachments

Setup and equipment
Flat, angular, and contoured surfaces are made by horizontal shapers. Concerning shaping, the device that holds the piece being worked on has a very heavy movable jaw to withstand cutting forces. The size of the planer needed is determined by the workpiece.  Depending on the size of the workpiece many clamps and supporting devices may be used to hold it on the planer.

Typical tools and geometry produced
The tools for shaping/planing are usually made of high speed steel or carbide tipped. Except for some slight angle difference, cutting tools resemble those used in facing and turning.  Some advantages of using single-point cutting tools over multipoint tools is that they are more easily sharpened and fabricated. Internal shapes can be made by using a special extension tool.

Material properties
Although the most common material to be planed or shaped is wood, there are planers and shaping machines capable of processing anything from metal pieces to plastic objects.
