Aq Qaya. Aq Qaya (, , ) — is a rock in Crimea, situated near the village of Belaya Skala/Ak-Kaya of the Bilohirsk Raion.

The vertical white rocky wall rises above the valley of the Biyuk-Karasu river. The height above sea level is 325 m, the height difference between the valley and the top of the rock is 100 m.

The name Aq Qaya is translated from Crimean Tatar language as White Rock ( — white,  — rock).

Aq Qaya was created as a result of erosion and weathering of chalk and Paleogene limestones and sandstones — a clear example of the Cuesta relief. In the upper part of the rock weathering created pillars, grottoes, oval niches. At the bottom of the rocks, weathering products accumulate such as slides, piles of boulders, erosion hollows. In some places, erosion is restrained by thickets of wild rose and hornbeam.

Since 1981, it is a natural monument of national importance.

Cornwell Muleya. Cornwell Muleya is a Zambian chemical engineer, accountant and aviation consultant, who served as the Acting Chief Executive Officer at Uganda National Airlines Company the revived national airline of Uganda, effective October 2019. He was relieved of this position by an "interim" board of directors of the airline in February 2022. Before that, from March 2019, until October 2019, he served as the Technical Director at the same company. He is now the acting Chief Executive Officer at Industrial Development Corperation Zambia.

Background and education
Muleya was born in Zambia, circa 1960s. He studied at the University of Bath, in Bath, Somerset, United Kingdom, from 1983 until 1986, graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering. He then went on to obtain qualifications in accounting and auditing.

Career
He started out as an audit manager at PriceWaterhouseCoopers, working out of their Lusaka office between 1989 and 1995. He then transferred to Air Botswana Corporation, working there for seven years, rising to the position of Chief Executive Officer, in the process. At that time, he was based in Gaborone, Botswana's capital city.

Muleya has also previously worked with Air Mauritius Limited as the Chief Finance Officer, based in Port Louis and at Zambezi Airlines Limited, as the Chief Executive Officer, based in Lusaka. He has also worked as the CEO at ALS – Aircraft Leasing Services, based at Nairobi, and at Air Uganda as the CEO, from 2013 until 2014. Immediately prior to this new assignment, and concurrent with his new role, Muleya is the Founder & Director of Cornwell Aviation Consultants Limited, an aviation consultancy based in Lusaka Zambia.

In October 2019, Muleya was appointed Acting CEO at Uganda Airlines, while the company searched for a substantive CEO. He replaced Ephraim Bagenda, who was named director of engineering and maintenance at the national airline. As of July 2020, the search for a substantive CEO at Uganda Airlines was ongoing. Meantime, Muleya's contract as acting CEO was extended to February 2021. In April 2021, the Daily Monitor newspaper reported that his short-term contract had been extended until September 2022, while the search for a substantive CEO continues.

In April 2021, General Katumba Wamala, the Cabinet Minister of Works and Transport, suspended (with full pay), Muleya the CEO together with 12 other senior management officials at Uganda Airlines. This was on directives from the president of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni, who ordered investigations into, corruption, mismanagement and other infractions at the airline.

After nine months of suspension, an interim board of directors terminated Muleya's contract, together with the contracts of the other 12 senior airline managers who worked under his supervision. The board was "interim", because the original board was also terminated and dissolved at the same time.

Khordad 15 (air defense system). The Khordad 15 () is an Iranian designed and built surface-to-air missile (SAM) system. The system was unveiled to the public on 9 June 2019 in an address made by Iranian Defence Minister Amir Hatami in Tehran, Iran. The system was developed by the Iran Aviation Industries Organization (IAIO). It has the capability to detect and intercept fighter jets, stealth targets, unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAV) and cruise missiles. It operates in conjunction with Sayyad-3 missiles. The surface-to-air missile system was developed in order to counter missiles and other aerial threats presented by the presence of extra-regional forces at military bases in countries around Iran. It was unveiled amid escalating tensions with the United States and Europe's failing attempts at upholding its commitments to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal.

Name 
The Khordad 15 air defense system is named in honor of the 1963 demonstrations in Iran, which according to the Iranian calendar is known as the 15 Khordad uprising. It was a series of protests in Iran against the arrest of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini after his denouncement of Iranian Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and Israel. The Shah's regime was taken by surprise by the massive public demonstrations of support and it was these events which established the power of religious opposition to the Shah, and Khomeini as a major political and religious leader.

Design 

The Khordad 15 air defense system was designed and is manufactured by the Iran Aviation Industries Organization (IAIO). The system is equipped with a passive electronically scanned array radar and independent launch pads which work in conjunction to detect, intercept and destroy potential threats. The setup of the SAM system includes two military trucks. One with a rotating, rectangular launcher on the bed which contains four missile canisters in two rows of two canisters each but is capable of utilizing only one row of two canisters. Another with a mounted rotating slab-shaped radar antenna.

Capabilities 

The Khordad 15 is capable of detecting, intercepting, and destroying six targets simultaneously. The system is capable of detecting fighter jets, cruise missiles and unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAV) from  away and is able to track them within a range of  and the Sayyad-3 missile, used by the SAM system, has a range of . The system can also detect stealth targets from a distance of  and can intercept and destroy them within a range of .

Operators 
 : At least 9 SAM launchers have been seen, more likely in service.
 : In service with the Syrian Air Defense Force.

Blitzkarren. The Blitzkarren (German ) was a cab-less tricycle freight cart based on a motorcycle. It was produced in 1924 as the first complete production vehicle manufactured by the Bremer Kühlerfabrik Borgward & Co. GmbH. The company, located in Sebaldsbrück, a settlement in Hemelingen, Bremen, Germany previously produced radiators and fenders for Hansa-Lloyd. Between 1929 and 1931 Hansa-Lloyd was acquired by Carl Borgward and his co-investor Wilhelm Tecklenborg. Borgward also renamed his radiator manufacturing company to Goliath-Werke Borgward & Co. GmbH.

In 1924, responding to a designer complaining about the material transport for radiator production between the workshops by handcart, Borgward constructed this light truck. In difficult economic times before the Great Depression Borgward discovered a gap in the market. There was a great demand from traders and small business owners for affordable motorized freight carts, that were legal to drive without a license. A Blitzkarren cost 980 Reichsmark. In 1929, a quarter of the licensed commercial vehicles were made in Bremen. Carl Borgward had patented the Blitzkarren division. The patents were granted on June 20, 1925 in Germany, and on March 11, 1926 in England. Previously there had been similar tricycles used as passenger transporters, usually single-seater.

Blitzkarren had neither clutch nor starter. The two-stroke motorcycle engine, under the flatbed, was coupled over a V-belt on the left rear wheel and was pushed to start, and choked to stop, which was not difficult from the driver seat in the rear of a 250 kg payload vehicle on a flat road. The single front wheel was mounted in a motorcycle fork, which was controlled from the rear.

NCC Class W. The Northern Counties Committee (NCC) Class W was a class of locomotives introduced in 1933 and allocated to express passenger duties from , Belfast.

Design and build
The design was attributed to the NCC's Chief Mechanical Engineer H. P. Stewart who was with the permission of William Stanier able to draw on designs and parts from the NCC's owners, the London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS). The resultant design is understood to have been an Irish 5ft 3in gauge tender version of the LMS Fowler 2-6-4T tank engine with  diameter wheels which were three inches wider than its predecessor.

Operations and performance
On introduction the Class W moguls took over the principal main line expresses of the NCC.  They proved capable of speeds of over . while coal consumption of the locomotives was considered extremely economical.  

The class was the motive power for the North Atlantic Express introduced in 1934 with the opening of the Greenisland Loop Line and the fastest services to  taking a mere 80 minutes.  In 1937 the North Atlantic Express was scheduled from  to  at an average speed of  making it the fastest schedule in Ireland; that time being reduced by a further minute in 1938 to achieve a scheduled  start to stop.

The locomotive remained on former NCC lines until the introduction of diesel railcars on services to  in 1958 whereupon some were shifted to other lines including cross border trains to  and occasional excursions to Dublin.  The final six remaining locomotives of the class were withdrawn in 1965.

Livery and naming
When new the locomotives were painted in LMS crimson lake red livery until the NCC was absorbed into Ulster Transport Authority (UTA) in the later forties whereafter repaints were black with red and yellow lining.  The original plans were to name the class after Irish Chieftains, however there were concerns this might not be acceptable to some sections of the community.  In the event the naming split between British Nobility and geographical locations, the class lead was named Duke of Abercorn after the governor of Northern Ireland.

New build option
While none of the original class have survived, the Railway Preservation Society of Ireland possesses a spare set of driving wheels and motion and are being used to re-construct the next locomotive of the class, to be numbered 105. It will also use a spare tender that the group have numbered 43.

Vector Packet Processing. Vector Packet Processing (VPP) platform is an extensible, open-source framework, which offers the functionality of network switches or routers. Vector processing is the process of processing multiple packets at a time, with low latency. Single packet processing and high latency are present in the scalar processing approach, which VPP aims to make obsolete.

This open-source, Linux Foundation backed framework is part of the Fast Data Project (FD.io). VPP uses the Data Plane Development Kit device drivers and libraries for many of its layer 1 functions - however, this functionality is separated into an optional plugin-in for VPP.

Technology 
In order to push for scalability of networks, VPP reads the largest available vector of packets in the networks I/O layer. Instead of processing each packet individually throughout an entire graph with several nodes, VPP selects the entire vector of packets and pushes them through a graph node, before moving on to the next node. The instruction cache then adapts to the process and the remaining packets are processed even faster, due to the previously learned instructions from the first vector packet.

Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Company Limited. Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Company Limited, also known as RPGCL, is a government owned company in Bangladesh. RPGCL is the forerunner in encouraging the use of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) as an alternate fuel in the transport sector. People were encouraged to use CNG as a fuel in order to improve the environmental pollution. RPGCL played the positive role in building the CNG fuel based infrastructure in the transport sector of the country and thereby supervising, monitoring and expanding its commercial operation. NGL-Condensate, which are the by products of natural gas produced from Sylhet Gas Fields, are being processed by RPGCL to produce MS, Diesel and LPG and marketing of the same. Ashuganj Condenate Handling Installation Site (ACHIS) supplies Condensate to the Govt. enterprise, Eastern Refinery Limited (ERL) as well as to the private sector using the Vessels. Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) based activities is an added function, being operated by RPGCL

History
An entity named ‘Compressed Natural Gas Company Ltd’ was formed on 1 January 1987 with a view to ensure multi-dimensional use of natural gas, which is a valuable resource of the country by resorting to alternate sources of fuel for preventing air pollution, saving foreign exchange through reduction of import of fuel. Later, due to expansion of its activities, the name of the Company was changed to ‘Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Company Limited (RPGCL)’ on 9 February 1991.
