Lingfield Point. Lingfield Point is a  business park in Darlington, County Durham created on a historic industrial site previously home to Europe's largest wool manufacturing plant developed by Patons & Baldwins.

History
Patons & Baldwins built a wool factory at Lingfield Point immediately after the Second World War. Construction started on the new factory in August 1945. The aim was to create a flagship manufacturing base for the knitting yarn company. The  site  to the east of the town centre was located next to the Stockton & Darlington Railway line, providing the factory with its own railway sidings. 

By 1951 this wool factory was completed at a cost of £7.5m. At over  this was one of the largest wool factories in the world.

Transport
 east of Darlington, Lingfield Point is located off the new Eastern Transport Corridor, giving immediate access to the A66 (East/West) which in turn links to J57, A1(M) South, a couple of miles from the A167 which links to J59, A1(M) North.

Lingfield Point is now only minutes away from the region's extensive road network; 5 minutes from Darlington railway station – operating on the East Coast Main Line with over 30 trains per day to London and Edinburgh and  from Teesside International Airport.

Modern transformation
60 years later property developers Marchday transformed this manufacturing base into a large business park – one of the largest employment bases in the Tees Valley employing over 2500 people.  Now owned by Clearbell, it is home to over 50 businesses and offers space from  to 150,000+ sqft. Lingfield Point has been recognised by winning a number of national and specialist awards including the British Council of Offices Recycled/Refurbished workspace award in 2009 and previous winners of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors national property management award.

Creativity is set to continue around the 90-acre site thanks to ongoing investment.  Lingfield Point hopes to become a flagship for successful regeneration in the North East – continuing to position Darlington as a great base for business.

A new £100m masterplan will see the creation of a flagship, sustainable mixed community built around the existing business community providing up to 1300 homes, sports facilities, a school, healthcare facilities and public, green open space.

Over  of office space has been let at Lingfield Point in the last five years and more than 2500 people currently work at the business park.

Mechanochromism. The change of colour which occurs when chemicals are put under stress in the solid state by mechanical grinding, crushing and milling; by friction and rubbing; or in the solid or solution state by high pressure or sonication is covered by the generic term mechanochromism. Specifically colour change under pressure is known as piezochromism and under grinding or attrition tribochromism.

Keyway Air Transport. Keyway Air Transport was a United States airline that operated from Frankfurt International Airport (which at the time was also home to a United States Air Force facility; Rhein-Main Air Base) using a Boeing T-43 Bobcat (a military variant of the Boeing 737-200) and a Boeing 707-355C. Details on its operation are unknown. The 737-200 was operated by Keyway Air Transport from 1986 up until 1992, when it was transferred to defence contractor EG&G, who operated the aircraft in the Janet fleet up until 2009 when it was retired from service. The Boeing 707-355C was operated from 1986 up until 1989, when it was transferred to HCL Aviation. From 1992 onwards, after having been modified for military service by Raytheon, the aircraft was used by the United States Air Force as an airborne command post for the United States Central Command and later on was reported as being used by the Air Force Special Operations Command, before being put in storage at the 309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group located on Davis–Monthan Air Force Base in 2002.

PCB (software). PCB is a free and open-source software suite for electronic design automation (EDA) - for printed circuit boards (PCB) layout. It uses GTK+ for its GUI widgets.

History
PCB was first written by Thomas Nau for an Atari ST in 1990 and ported to UNIX and X11 in 1994. Initially PCB was not intended to be a professional layout system but as a tool for individuals to do small-scale development of hardware.
The second release 1.2 introduced user menus. This made PCB easier to use and increased its popularity.
Harry Eaton took over PCB development beginning with Release 1.5, although he contributed some code from Release 1.4.3.

PCB includes a topological autorouter named Toporouter, developed by Anthony Blake in a Google-funded open source project mentored by DJ Delorie in 2008. It is mostly based on an implementation of the algorithms described in Tal Dayan's 1997 PhD thesis, "Rubberband based topological router". This router has meanwhile been adapted for use with the open-source KiCad project as well.

In 2013, pcb-rnd was forked from PCB.

(U)SIM interface. The (U)SIM interface is the connecting point of the mobile phone and the UICC with its SIM or USIM application.

Standardisation of the (U)SIM interface
The UICC with the SIM or USIM application plays an important role in mobile telephony as it is the secure element identifying a subscriber in the network and allowing MNOs to bill the respective account. Hence it is crucial to have standardised features e.g. placing phone calls or sending SMS working throughout the global network with all available handsets and (U)SIM cards resp. UICCs. Developing globally applicable standards for communication technologies is the task of standardisation bodies such as ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute, 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) and 3GPP2 (Third Generation Partnership Project 2). In case of the (U)SIM interface, the most important specifications are:
 ETSI TS 102 221 - UICC-Terminal interface; Physical and logical characteristics
 3GPP TS 31.101 - UICC-terminal interface; Physical and logical characteristics
 3GPP TS 31.102 - Characteristics of the Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) application

Standardisation of test scenarios
To ensure that actual implementations of such standardised features are interoperable, the standardisation bodies also create so called test specifications. These document detail exact procedures on how to test that an implementation under test acts according to conformance requirements. Important test specifications for the (U)SIM interface are:
 ETSI TS 102 230 - Physical, electrical and logical test specification
 3GPP TS 31.121 - Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) application test specification

Type approval for mobile terminals
Before mobile network operators select new handset types to be offered to their customers, they want to be sure the new handset will support all features and work in combination with new and existing UICCs. Hence, they request the manufacturers to perform those test cases defined by the standardisation bodies. Therefore, certification organisations such as the GCF (Global Certification Forum), CCF (CDMA Certification Forum) and PTCRB (PCS Type Certification Review Board) have been founded. These organisations are associations of the leading network operators, device manufacturers and other stakeholders such as test system suppliers and test houses. They select relevant test cases and define an independent certification programme for handset type approval.

Walking foot. A walking foot is a mechanism for feeding the workpiece through a sewing machine as it is being stitched.  It is most useful for sewing heavy materials where needle feed is mechanically inadequate, for spongy or cushioned materials where lifting the foot out of contact with the material helps in the feeding action, and for sewing many layers together where a drop feed will cause the lower layers to shift out of position with the upper layers. A walking foot is also good for sewing materials with varying layers because it can climb up and down these layers easier than other feeding mechanisms.

A sewing machine might have a single walking foot with a second holding foot, or two walking feet which both feed with alternating action.  A walking foot is usually combined with another feed mechanism, such as a drop feed or a needle feed.

It is not a commonly used sewing machine attachment for household use, although it is used for both quilting and bag making, but this type of feed is common in industrial heavy duty machines.  Some household machines are marketed as having a walking foot, but actually have a puller feed.  However, almost all household sewing machines use a standard connector for their presser foot, and so add-on walking foot attachments are available.

"Plaid Matcher" attachments

A "plaid matcher" is similar to a walking foot, but unlike a walking foot it does not actually contribute any forward or backward feeding force.  Rather, it applies cyclic downward pressure onto the material onto the feed dogs, in time with the feed dogs, so as to increase the friction between layers of the material.  The increased friction reduces the slipping of lower layers (which contact the feed dogs) versus the upper layers (which tend to be held in place by the presser foot).

The plaid matcher's downward pressure is more helpful than that of the presser foot because the plaid matcher's foot can slide freely forward and back in order to move with the feed dogs.  Consequently, it appears to be a walking foot, even though the only force it generates is downward.

The plaid matcher is powered by the machine's needle shank.

Keyboard computer. A keyboard computer is a computer which contains all of the regular components of a personal computer, except for a screen, in the same housing as the keyboard. The power supply is typically external and connects to the computer via an adapter cable. The motherboard is specially designed to fit inside, and the device is larger than most standard keyboards. Additional peripheral devices such as a monitor are connected to the computer via external ports. Usually a minimum of storage devices, if any, is built in.

Most home computers produced during the late 1970s and 1980s were keyboard computers, the ZX Spectrum and most models of the Atari ST, Xiao Bawang, Commodore 64, Apple II, and Amiga being prime examples. While this form factor went out of style around 1990 in favour for more modular desktop setups, some notable x86 keyboard computers have been built, like the Olivetti Prodest PC1 in 1988 and the Schneider Euro PC Series between 1988 and 1995.

Newer computers to employ this form factor include the Commodore 64 WebIt by Tulip, the Asus Eee Keyboard, which uses Intel Atom processors and Solid-state drive, and the unreleased Commodore Invictus PC. In November 2020, Raspberry Pi Foundation announced Raspberry Pi 400, a modified version of their previous Raspberry Pi 4 housed entirely within a keyboard.

Bundesautobahn 117. is an autobahn in Germany.
The road that would become the A 117 was opened on 6 October 1962 as the A 113, intended as a connection from the A 10-A 13 junction in Schönefeld to the Berlin neighborhood of Adlershof. This road's path was similar to all of the A 117's present-day route, then the A 113's route south to the beginning of the A 13.

Soon after reunification, a junction was built along the A 113 at Waltersdorf (present-day A 117 junction 2). In 1997, construction began in Neukölln on a new section of autobahn, which was to begin at the A 100 and connect the inner city to Adlershof and the already-existing section of the A 113. The new section was completed in 2008 and received the A 113 designation. The stub that was left, from Waltersdorf into Treptow, was renumbered A 117.

During construction of the A 113 extension, a new three-way interchange had to be built at the point where the extension meets the existing roadway. The existing autobahn also had to be slightly rerouted, as the town's cemetery was isolated from the rest of its area by the road. The only way to resolve this problem and retain both the new junction and the existing junction was to combine the two junctions, although to this day they are still numbered separately.

When the A 113-A 117 project was completed, the portion of the B 179 that ran into Berlin was downgraded to L 400, a fact that still has not been noted by most maps.

BASIC Atom. Basic Atom refers to a line of self-contained microcontrollers from Basic Micro.

Like the Basic stamp, the Basic Atom line is based upon various microchips pre-programmed with an interpreter, making it easy to change "programs", as they are only "data" being interpreted. A compiler converts a high level language into the interpretive "code" which is then loaded in as data, and run.  

 The product line consists of:
 Basic Atom - Basic Stamp 2 compatible devices, claiming faster execution
 Basic Atom Nano, a series of pre-programmed chips for those that want to integrate the functionality into other products without adding other boards
 Basic Atom Pro, a line of higher capacity devices. 
 Board-level products, such as for robotic control, etc. 
 Accessories such as power supplies.

Basic Atom chips may be added to other projects via the familiar Dual in-line package style, or the higher density TQFP.

One small Basic Atom Pro is implemented as a Single in-line package thus taking very little area on a board, at the expense of greater height.
