Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4. The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is a limited-production mid-engine hybrid-electric sports car produced by the Italian automotive manufacturer Lamborghini and designed by its head of design Mitja Borkert. Unveiled on 14 August 2021, the car is inspired and named after the original Countach which was first introduced 50 years prior. Based on the hybridized powertrain of the Sián FKP 37, 112 units are planned to be produced, the number referring to the LP 112 model designation used during development of the original Countach.

All 112 units had been sold less than a week after the model was unveiled. Customer deliveries commenced in early 2022.

Specifications and performance 

The Countach LPI 800-4 shares its underpinnings and mechanicals with the Sián FKP 37 which was unveiled in 2019. It utilizes the same carbon-fiber monocoque along with the same mild hybrid powertrain with a slightly decreased combined output of  powering all four wheels. It is a combination of the longitudinally positioned (LP) naturally-aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine which in this case produces , along with a 48-volt electric motor producing an additional  which is located inside the 7-speed automated manual transmission. Energy from the regenerative braking system is stored in a supercapacitor which is lighter than a traditional lithium-ion battery. The dry weight is , with the percentage split 43-57 front-to-rear.

Lamborghini claimed the car is capable of  acceleration in 2.8 seconds,  in 8.6 seconds and a top speed of .

Margaret Shea (scientist). Margaret Ann ("Peggy") Shea is a space scientist known for research on the connections between cosmic radiation and Earth's magnetic field.

Education and career 
Shea graduated from Portsmouth High School (New Hampshire) in 1954 and was the top student in her high school math and physics classes. In college, she monitored cosmic rays in New Hampshire and was one of three women who entered the College of Technology at the University of New Hampshire. On the first day of an engineering class the instructor announced "Well, fellas, we've got two girls in here. How fast can we get 'em out?" She persisted and earned an undergraduate degree in 1958 and a masters in 1961, when she was the first women to earn an advanced degree in the physics department at the University of New Hampshire. She worked briefly at the University of Hawaii and AVCO Corporation. In 1964 she joined the Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories. Shea earned a D.Sc. from the University of Tasmania, Australia, in 2001; at the time she was 64 years old. Shea became an emeritus scientist at the Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories. In 2018, the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences at the University of New Hampshire honored her with the Distinguished Alumni Award and an honorary degree.

As of 2021, she is co-editor for special issues of Advances in Space Research.

Research 
Shea is known for her research connecting cosmic rays, solar particles, and the Earth's magnetic field. Her research on vertical cutoff rigidities led to the development of a computer program, the Geomagnetic Cutoff Rigidity Computer Program, which set the standard for the amount of radiation that pilots and astronauts can encounter. Shea's research includes an investigation into the Solar storm of August 1972 which set off a Coronal mass ejection, magnetized clouds of gas, which caused mines to detonate in Vietnam. Shea has also worked on solar cosmic ray events in ice and considered the changes in solar proton events over the time period from 1561 to 1950, which included comparisons to the Carrington Event, a solar flare that occurred in September 1859.

Pirkankatu. Pirkankatu is a busy, east–west street in Tampere, Finland, which forms the southern border of the Amuri district. The districts of Kaakinmaa and Pyynikinrinne are located south of the street. To the east, the end of Pirkankatu is the Hämeenpuisto park, in the middle stages of which it connects to Hämeenkatu. In the west, on the border of Pispala, Pirkankatu becomes the Pispala Highway.

Pirkankatu is one of the driveways leading to the city center, and it is one of the main routes used by Tampere public transport. In 2021, the Tampere tramway art stop designed by sculptor Jaakko Himanen was completed on Pirkankatu, in front of Pyynikintori. Pyynikintori is the terminus of the first stage of the tramway, from where trams run through the city center to Hervanta.

At the eastern end of Pirkankatu is the cityscape and historically significant Pyynikki Church Park, where the landscape is dominated by the Alexander Church (1881). Across the street is the nationally significant Central Library Metso (1986), designed by architects Raili and Reima Pietilä. Most of the residential buildings on Pirkankatu are wooden houses built in the 1920s. Such is, for example, the 138-meter-long Kilometritalo (1923). The most notable of the stone apartment buildings is Veljeslinna (1952), which is part of a large, sealed city block, which is rare compared to typical Tamperean architecture.

VAPE. The Vehículo Anfibio Pesado de Exploración (VAPE, "Heavy Amphibious Exploration Vehicle") was a wheeled amphibious reconnaissance vehicle project developed by Argentina in the 1970s. Commissioned by the Argentine Army, two prototypes were developed by the French companies Renault and Panhard. On top of reconnaissance, the vehicle was also designed for direct infantry support and anti-tank warfare.

History
The production of armored vehicles in Argentina ceased after the production of 16 Nahuel tanks in 1940. In 1960, Plan Europa was formulated, planning for the development of armored vehicles production in Argentina. In 1968, under license from French firms, AMX-13 light tanks were manufactured at the Astarsa shipyard. By the 1970s, Argentina had become the second largest arms producer in Latin America (after Brazil), producing equipment such as ships, military aircraft and rifles, and the government was attempting to produce its own armored vehicles. In 1974, the West German firm Thyssen-Henschel received a contract for the development of the medium tank TAM and the infantry fighting vehicle .  In January 1979, the state-owned company  ordered the French companies Renault and Panhard to build prototypes of a reconnaissance vehicle for the Argentine Army. The vehicle, called VAPE, was to be exported. The APV VAE was also developed concurrently by the two companies.

At the time, Argentina did not have a developed road network and required fast, lightweight military equipment. The VAE/VAPE, along with the TAM/VCTP and the plane DINFIA IA 38, was developed with this in mind.

The contract called for the construction of 1000 units, to be assembled at the factory of TENSA in Córdoba. From 1979 to 1980, Renault and Panhard presented their 6×6 prototypes, which were transferred to the Institute of Scientific and Technical Research for Defense for testing. While the tests were successful, the military dictatorship of the National Reorganization Process was then involved in the Dirty War, and financial difficulties caused the discontinuation of the project.

Design and specifications
VAPE has a frontal control compartment and a fighting compartment in the middle of the vehicle. The body of the BRM is sealed, made of bulletproof and splinter-proof steel armor. The regular crew consists of three personnel: the vehicle commander, the driver and the gunner. The turret is located behind the engine compartment, in the center of the hull. The vehicle is equipped with NBC protection, air conditioning and fire extinguishers. The VAPE is equipped with a 90mm GIAT F4 cannon located in the Argentinean SAMM-TAMSE-TENSA AR90 turret, with an ammunition stock of 20 rounds. The initial velocity of the shell is 1500 m/s. In addition, the vehicle has two 7.62mm machine guns with 1,000 rounds and smoke grenade launchers located on both sides of the turret.

Variants
 VAPE-1 (6 × 6) – Renault armored vehicle variant.
 VAPE-2 (6 × 6) – Panhard armored vehicle variant.

Farmall 340. The Farmall 340 is a medium-sized row-crop tractor, first produced as part of the Farmall line by International Harvester in 1957. The 340 was a completely new design, unrelated to its predecessor the Farmall 350. Production ran until 1963 for the Farmall model, while production under the International and International Harvester name ran until 1965.

Description
The 340 used a new   four-cylinder gasoline engine, connected to a torque amplifier that gave an effective range of ten gears. A diesel version had a  engine, with the same horsepower. The 340's new hydraulic system used transmission oil is the hydraulic fluid. The International Harvester IH 340 was the utility version, and the International 340 was the industrial version. A crawler version was sold as the T-340, or the TD-340 with a diesel engine. The Farmall 340 was offered in an orchard and grove configuration. Crawler versions were sold until 1965. About 800 were produced, the gasoline models selling for about $3,600 and the diesels for about $4,300.

Comparable products
The Case 441 and Massey MF33 were comparable to the 340.
