Chumballs. Chumballs  (French: Les Chumballs) is a 2009 animated series that aired on France 5.

Premise
An environmentally unlivable environment on Earth following a catastrophic event has driven humans to live underground. They dispatched robots called Chumballs out to the surface to restore Earth. The Chumballs are supposed to beam a signal down to the humans once their work is complete and confirm that the surface can be resided again. But the humans haven't received the signal, forgot the Chumballs, and are forced by the council to remain inside the Earth. Three kids, Solana, Stel, and Tom, and their robot Tago, leave the underground and explore the surface of Earth on a goal to search and reactivate the Chumballs.

Characters
Solana -- The main protagonist of the series. She is a girl educated by Master Pakadis regarding on Earth and the Chumballs. She has the ability to identify plants.
Stel -- A friend of Solana. He can think before acting while solving problems.
Tom -- The younger brother of Stel. He is very curious and can get distracted by what he sees.
Master Pakadis -- A wise old man who believes the Chumballs' mission is in peril and challenges the council's message. He communicates the kids during their adventure through Tago.
Tago -- A Chumball-styled robot built by Stel that accompanies the kids. It is able to use several functions and tools that helps the kids.
Voltar -- The main antagonist of the series. He wants to disrupt nature and capture the Chumballs.
GMX -- The robot henchman of Voltar.
The Chumballs -- The spherical robots dispatched by the humans to recover the Earth's environment. They are named after their designer Bob Chumball. They function like machines, but they interact and have minds like that of living beings. There are 24 Chumballs, each focusing on a different environment. All episodes except the first and last ones focus on each one of them.

Production
Chumballs was based on the comic book series L'odyssée du temps by Maxime Péroz, a graduate of the École supérieure des arts décoratifs in Strasbourg, and Michèle Graveline. There was also an interactive Chumballs website that existed as of 2001.

Sikorsky S-19. The Sikorsky S-19 was a Russian twin engine experimental prototype biplane aircraft built late in 1916 by the Russian Baltic Railroad Car Works while Igor Sikorsky was chief engineer of the aircraft manufacturing division.

Design and development

The S-19 was a two bay biplane powered by two  Sunbeam Crusader water-cooled V-8 engines installed in a push-pull configuration. Arranged as a twin-boom aircraft, it had a large rudder located in the center of the empenage. Two crew members occupied cockpits in the forward-most section of the booms in front of the lower wing and served as pilot and machine gunner.

Flight testing revealed sluggish performance and the aircraft was scrapped after a minor crash.

James Anderson (civil engineer). James Anderson was a Scottish civil engineer.

He was born in Edinburgh on 22 January 1793. His father was a flax dresser. Anderson was a pupil of James Jardine. Assisted by Jardine and the work of Thomas Telford, he proposed two designs for a suspension Forth Bridge in 1818, but the idea was ahead of its time and was not taken up. In 1830 he was responsible for replacing the piles on the Trinity Chain Pier, which had been damaged by the marine crustacean Limnoria terebrans. In 1834 he wrote a treatise on proposed improvements to the harbour at Leith. In 1836 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. He became a harbour engineer and died in Edinburgh on 19 February 1861.

Mikoyan-Gurevich I-350. The Mikoyan-Gurevich I-350 (Samolet M), was a Soviet Cold War-era experimental fighter aircraft. It was the first Soviet aircraft able to maintain supersonic speed.

Design and development
From 1947, work began on a new axial-flow turbojet by OKB-165, led by Arkhip Mikhailovich Lyulka. OKB Mikoyan-Guryevich designed the I-350 around this engine, the  Lyul'ka TR-3A (redesignated as the Lyulka AL-5). Resembling a scaled-up MiG-17, the I-350 had a long slim fuselage, mid-set 57° swept wings and a wide-chord fin mounting a tailplane at half-span.

Given the OKB designation Izdeliye M, it was the first Soviet fighter able to fly stably at supersonic speeds. Redesignated as the I-350, the I-350M-1 first prototype was fitted with a RP-1 Izumrud airborne interception radar and the second prototype, I-350M-2, was fitted with a Korshun airborne interception radar.

Operational history
The I-350M-1 first flew on 16 June 1951, piloted by Grigoriy A. Sedov, but the engine failed shortly after takeoff, precipitating a hydraulic system failure. Despite battling very heavy control forces, the pilot made a successful landing after lowering the landing gear using the emergency undercarriage extension system. Four more test flights were made, with very poor engine reliability, before the I-350 programme was terminated in August 1951.

Depolymerizable polymers. Depolymerizable polymers or Low-Ceiling Temperature Polymers refer to polymeric materials that can undergo depolymerization to revert the materials to their monomers at relatively low temperatures, such as room temperature. For example, the ceiling temperature Tc for formaldehyde is 119 °C, and that for acetaldehyde is -39 °C.

Unlike stable polymers such as PVCs that have high thermal stability, depolymerizable polymers and closely related self-immolative polymers can be triggered by stimuli to break fast under moderate to low temperatures. The first type of polymers, poly (olefin sulfone), was reported by Snow and Frey in 1943. It was further confirmed and explained in terms of the thermodynamics of a reversible propagation step by Dainton and Ivin. Closely related to depolymerizable polymers, self-immolative polymers can also irreversibly disassemble into their constituent parts in response to stimuli such as temperature, biological inputs or pH.

Aspirational applications 
Demand for recycling has also prompted search for polymers that are transient. For example, poly(phthalaldehyde) is a possible photodegradable substrate material for circuits.. Other applications include controlled release of small molecules, and as  stimuli-responsive photoresists for lithography.  Some polymers are contemplated for controlled release of drugs.

Control Program Facility. Control Program Facility (CPF) is the operating system of the IBM System/38. CPF represented an independendent line of development at IBM Rochester, and was unrelated to the earlier and more widely used System Support Program operating system. CPF evolved into the OS/400 operating system, which was originally known as XPF (Extended CPF).

While CPF is considered to be the operating system of the System/38, much of the hardware and resource management of the platform is implemented in the System/38's Horizontal and Vertical Microcode.

Description of the libraries
 QGPL – general purpose library
 QSYS – system library
 QSPL – spooling library
 QTEMP – temporary library
 QSRV – system service library
 QRECOVERY – system recovery library

Data storage
In most computers prior to the System/38, and most modern ones, data stored on disk was stored in separate logical files. When data was added to a file it was written in the sector dedicated to this, or if the sector was full, on a new sector somewhere else.

The System/38 adopted the single-level store architecture, where main storage and disk storage are organized as one, from the abandoned IBM Future Systems project (FS).  Every piece of data was stored separately and could be put anywhere on the system. There was no such thing as a physically contiguous file on disk, and the operating system managed the storage and recall of all data elements.

Capability-based addressing
CPF was an example of a commercially-available Capability-based operating system. System/38 was one of the few commercial computers with capability-based addressing. Capability-based addressing was removed in the follow-on OS/400 operating system.

Distributed data management
In 1986, System/38 announced support for Distributed Data Management Architecture (DDM). Such a middleware in the context of a distributed system is the software layer that lies between the operating system and applications. Distributed Data Management Architecture defines an environment for sharing data. This enables System/38 programs to create, manage, and access record-oriented files on remote System/36, System/38, and IBM mainframe systems running CICS. It also allows programs on remote System/36 and System/38 computers to create, manage, and access files of a System/38.

Programming languages
Languages supported on the System/38 included RPG III, COBOL, BASIC, and PL/I. CPF also implements the Control Language for System/38.

McGrath Army Airbase. McGrath Army Airbase is former United States Army airbase located in McGrath, a city in the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska.

During its construction, equipment to construct the facility arrived too late in the season, as the ground had already frozen over. As a result, it was ordered that the equipment be brought to Umnak Island and Cold Bay, Alaska, which built Fort Glenn Army Airbase and Fort Randall Army Airfield, respectively. Both of those airfields later played a part in repelling the Japanese Attack on Dutch Harbor.

Carlos Busqued. Carlos Busqued (1970 – March 29, 2021) was an Argentine writer, radio producer, engineer and university professor in the Department of Engineering at the University of Córdoba.

Early life
Carlos Sebastián Busqued was born in the city of Presidencia Roque Sáenz Peña, province of Chaco, Argentina, in 1970. He lived there until the age of fifteen, when he moved to the city of Córdoba and finished his high school education. In Córdoba, he studied mechanical engineering, graduated and tried to study Literature, but dropped out just a few months after starting it. Between 2006 and 2007, he settled in the city of Buenos Aires.

Work in radio, literature and teaching 
Busqued taught at the Universidad Tecnológica Nacional de Buenos Aires, in addition to traveling twice a month to the city of Córdoba to give classes there. He was also a member of the Executive Committee of EDUTECNE, the publishing house of the UTN. As a radio producer, he produced the radio programs El otoño en Pekín, Vidas Ejemplares and Prisionero del Planeta Infierno, besides having collaborated in the magazine El Ojo con Dientes and in the last issue of the magazine Cerdos y Peces.

As a writer, Busqued published in 2009 his first book, the novel Bajo este sol tremendo, in the Spanish publishing house Anagrama. It was a semi-finalist for the Herralde Prize in 2008, translated into English, Italian, French and German; and later made into a film by Israel Adrián Caetano in 2017, under the title El otro hermano. Nine years later, in 2018, the writer published his second and last book, the non-fiction novel Magnetizado. At the beginning of 2019, Busqued faced a court case for sexual abuse after being denounced by a woman at the Domestic Violence Office of the city of Buenos Aires. Following this, a perimetral restraining order was imposed on the writer, to which he responded with a prohibition of mutual contact towards the complainant after she had contacted him, in May 2019. Finally, after the complainant was given the possibility of advancing a criminal action and Busqued had denounced that the facts did not occur, the case was filed.

Death 
Busqued died at his home in the neighborhood of San Cristóbal, Buenos Aires, on March 29, 2021, at the age of fifty, due to a heart attack. After his death, several writers, Internet users and public figures expressed their grief through social networks.
