Mosca-Bystritsky MBbis. The Mosca-Bystritsky MBbis was a fighter aircraft developed and used by the Imperial Russian Air Service during the First World War.

Design and development
After being persuaded to move to Russia, the Italian aircraft designer Francesco E. Mosca worked at the Duks factory, with Bezobrasov, Lerkhe and Yankovski. Mosca also designed a two-seat reconnaissance monoplane similar to contemporary Morane and Nieuport monoplanes which went into production as the Mosca-Bystritsky MB. A smaller single seat version of the MB was also produced as the MBbis, 50 of which were ordered from 1916.

Description
The MB and MBbis were both constructed largely of wood with fabric covering. The wings were mounted in the shoulder position with gaps between the roots and the fuselage, allowing easy access to the cockpit and improved view for the pilot, (pilot and observer). For transport on the ground the wings could be folded to lie along the fuselage sides and the tail-planes folded forward and upwards.

Powered by  Le Rhone 9C or Clerget 7Z engines the MBbis was armed with a single machine gun mounted, either in a fixed forward firing mount firing through the propeller fitted with deflector plates, or in angled or elevated mounts firing outside the propeller disc.

Center for Geospatial Research. The Center for Geospatial Research at the University of Georgia focuses on remote sensing and climate science. The center is a regional NASA DEVELOP node and was recognized by NASA in 1998 for its outstanding achievements relating to applied climate and environmental sciences, being named a NASA Center of Excellence.

Founding and History 
The University of Georgia's Center for Geospatial Research, CGR, was founded in 1985 as the Laboratory for Remote Sensing and Mapping Science. In 1989 the lab was renamed the Center for Remote Sensing and Mapping Science. This Center was founded by Dr. Roy Welch, who served as director from its founding in 1985 until 2003. The Center is now directed by Dr. Marguerite Madden and in 2012 the center was renamed Center for Geospatial Research to better reflect its internal goals. In 2016 the center helped found the UGA Small Satellite Research Laboratory.

Significant Research

Publications and Presentations

In 2016 research from the Center was used to identify the coastal regions of the United States that were most at risk from sea-level rise due to climate change. This study was one of the first studies to have accounted for ongoing population growth when assessing the potential magnitude of future impacts. Minimally 4.2 million people at risk of inundation were projected to be at risk from sea-level rise in the continental United States.

Researchers at the Center for Geospatial Research have helped students at the UGA Small Satellite Research Laboratory receive grants to build 2 satellites. These satellites will be the first satellites built, designed, and operated by the University of Georgia.

NASA DEVELOP
Since 2013, the Center for Geospatial Research has been a regional node for the NASA DEVELOP national program and contributes significantly to climate change research. This DEVELOP location specializes in spatial ecology projects under the supervision of Lead Science Advisor, Dr. Marguerite Madden.  

Certain DEVELOP work at CGR has focused on identifying key issues regarding Atlanta and its suburbs. Using data from the Landsat 8 and Terra satellites, the team was able to model water flow in the region and help the area build better infrastructure as it grows. The center has also been published in the International Union for Conservation of Natures World Conservation Congress Publication. The study focused on ecological forecasting, reforestation and conservation efforts, and the Colombian primate Cotton-top tamarin.

Small Satellites
The Center is also aiding the undergraduates of the Small Satellite Research Laboratory with technical knowledge. Faculty members, such as Dr. David Cotten, have given presentations on the possibilities of structure from motion in low Earth orbit and how the Small Satellite Research Laboratory could build the first satellite to perform this technology in orbit.

Ke-Go. Ke-Go was one of the first guided weapons, developed by the Imperial Japanese Army Ordnance Board. The Ke-Go was a free falling, infra-red guided, gyro-stabilized missile, intended to be dropped from airplanes onto shipping targets. The missile had eight wings in two cross-configurations, one set fore and one set aft. Output from the heat-seeking head was amplified to provide guidance control to flaps on the four forward wings. The main body was to hold an explosive charge behind the heat-seeking head.

Development
Tokyo Shibaura Denki Company began development of infrared seekers around March 1944, and Hideo Itokawa of the Nakajima Aircraft Company was tasked with the aerodynamic design of the missile. 

On September 5, 1944, a Land and Sea Technology Operation Committee was established to integrate science and technology for military purposes, and the Ke-Go project was included in one of the studies. The Army planned to produce 700 missiles by October 1945. The Navy's Yokosuka P1Y "Frances" bomber was intended to be the launch aircraft.

In addition to Toshiba, engineers from electronic components companies also participated in the development study group, and Akio Morita, who was a naval technology lieutenant, and Masaru Ibuka, who was a measurement instrumentation engineer, became acquainted at the study group and established Tokyo Telecom Industry Co., Ltd., the predecessor of Sony, after the war.

Testing
In January 1945, the first drop test was carried out at Lake Hamana. The bombs were dropped on a 10 × 30 meters target (a fire burning on a raft). The results were not satisfactory. Despite the fact that the homing head worked quite satisfactorily, the control device did not work well. Only 5 or 6 out of 50 bombs dropped hit the target. 

Based on these results, the fleet created two new models with improved guidance, but by the time the bombs were ready for testing, the war ended without the missiles entering mass production.

Dean Fisher. Dean C. Fisher (born September 3, 1956) has a Bachelor of Electronics Engineering Technology and has been an Iowa State Representative for the Republican Party of Iowa from the 53rd District since 2013.

Early life and education

Fisher was born in 1956 and raised in Garwin, Iowa in Tama County.

In 1975 he graduated of South Tama Community High School. He earned a Bachelor of Electronics Engineering Technology from DeVry Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois, in 1978.

Career

Fisher spent 26 years in the electronics industry as an engineer, engineering manager, and business manager. He worked for Qwint Systems, IO Vision, Autotech, and from 1986 until 2004 at Motorola in the Automotive Electronics division.

From 2010 to 2011, Fisher was the chair of his county's Republican Party. He also served as the Indian Village Township Clerk from 2008 to 2013. 

Since 2013, he has been an Iowa State Representative for the Republican Party of Iowa from the 53rd District. He has chaired the environmental protection committee, sits on the agriculture Committee and the public safety committee. 
In 2019, Fisher intentionally blocked the Farm System Reform Act from being heard.
In 2023 the environmental protection committee met only 4 times and Fisher did not propose a single bill; in 2024 he proposed a raccoon bounty bill and was criticized as "fiscally irresponsible... in a state where we’re defunding water quality sensors and not funding research on childhood cancer". 

In January 2024, Fisher founded a private Christian school named Tama Toledo Christian School, which is set to open in August 2025. Because school operations will be funded by Coverdell education savings account / private school vouchers (a bill that Republican Governor Kim Reynolds had pursued since 2021, the Students First Act), Iowa Citizens Community Action saw a conflict of interest and filed an ethics complaint with the Chief Clerk of the House.

Personal life
Fisher is married to Vicky Fisher, also on the Board of the Tama Toledo Christian School.
They reside in rural Montour, Iowa on a heritage farm which has been in his family since 1852.

Fisher is a member of the National Rifle Association of America; Iowa Firearms Coalition; Amateur Trapshooting Association and the Iowa State Trapshooting Association. He is also a member of the American Farm Bureau Federation, the American Motorcycle Association, A Brotherhood Aimed Towards Education (motorcycle organization), The Heritage Foundation,  and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation's W.A.R. Goodwin Society. 
Among his hobbies are hunting, trapshooting, woodworking, model airplanes, motorcycling, quilting, genealogy, horticulture, and astronomy.

Algoid (programming language). Algoid is an educational programming language developed around 2012, by Yann Caron a student of computer science at CNAM, (Conservatoire national des arts et métiers at Paris)

Features
Algoid is an educational language that allows the student to use different paradigms:
Imperative
Procedural
Functional
Recursive
Object-oriented (multi-inheritance)
Aspect-oriented programming.
It leads onto programming in industry standard language (such as C, Java and C++) and its syntax as close as possible to their respective syntaxes. It implements powerful idioms like meta-object protocol (from python) and cascade (from smalltalk).
 
To do this, the fundamental principles of Algoid are:

A function is an expression.
An object is an expression.
An expression is an object.
So a function is a meta-function and an object is a meta-object.
