Connect (Irish trade union). Connect is a trade union representing construction, electrical, and technical workers in Ireland.

History
The union came into existence in 2001, when it was named the Technical Engineering and Electrical Union (TEEU).  It arose from an amalgamation between the Electrical Trades Union and the National Engineering and Electrical Trades Union. Both unions could trace their origins to 1920 when union activists in British based unions believed Irish workers needed autonomous representation in the emerging Irish state.

In 2016, members of the Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians based in Ireland transferred to the TEEU.  In 2018, the union changed its name to "Connect".

Remit
The union represents a broad range of workers throughout industry and public service. It includes craftworkers, technicians, skilled operatives, general workers, technical, administration, and supervisory staff.

The TEEU is the largest engineering union in Ireland and the second largest in manufacturing, representing up to 40,000 workers.

Baltasar Mena Iniesta. Baltasar Mena Iniesta (born 1942) is a Spanish-born Mexican mechanical engineer specialized in Rheology. He has been laureated with Mexico's National Prize for Arts and Sciences (1997), UNESCO Science Prize (2001), and has chaired both the International Committee on Rheology (1984–88) and the Mexican Society of Rheology (1976–97).

Mena graduated with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM, 1964); specialized in Fluid Mechanics at the University of Toulouse (France, 1967); and earned both a master's degree and a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Brown University (United States, 1969–1973), where he also received the Brown Engineering Alumni Medal in 2000.

He has developed several patents, including an oscillatory die for polymer extrusion used by the henequen industry in the Yucatan Peninsula and an hexagonal solar-powered grain elevator used in Mexico, India and Southeast Asia. According to UNESCO, such design has saved millions of dollars yearly by preventing post-harvest losses.

Aside from his academic activities, Mena is also a veteran rock musician, having toured since 1959 with Los Sonámbulos, Los Sinners and Tequilas. Since 1976 he is the lead singer and guitarist of Naftalinas, a band with seven albums and over a hundred live performances.

Capability (systems engineering). A capability, in the systems engineering sense, is defined as the ability to execute a specified course of action. A capability may or may not be accompanied by an intention.  The term is used in the defense industry but also in private industry (e.g. gap analysis).

Capability gap analysis
The Joint Capabilities Integration Development System is an important part of DoD military planning.  The "Operation of the JCIDS" introduces a Capability Based Analysis (CBA) process that includes identification of capability gaps.  In essence, a Capability Gap Analysis is the determination of needed capabilities that do not yet exist. The Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DoDAF) suggests the use of the Operational Activity Model (OV-5) in conducting a CGA.

Sage Type 3. The Sage Type 3 (also known as the Sage N3 School) was a prototype British biplane training aircraft of the First World War. It was unsuccessful, only two examples being built.

Development and design
In 1916, the British Admiralty placed a contract with Frederick Sage & Co, a Peterborough-based woodworking company which had become an aircraft contractor for the Royal Navy, to design and build a primary trainer for the Royal Naval Air Service. It was required to be robust, with a low landing speed and good visibility. The resultant design, the Sage Type 3, was a two-bay tractor biplane powered by a Rolls-Royce Hawk engine.  In order to prevent the aircraft overturning during landing, it was fitted with an additional pair of wheels ahead of the mainwheels.

The first prototype Type 3 flew on 5 January 1917. It proved to be slow, even for a trainer, and was modified with smaller tail surfaces and reduced weight, becoming the Type 3b (with the original design retrospectively designated Type 3a), which slightly improved performance. However, after a second aircraft was built, the contract was cancelled, and the remaining aircraft of the contract for 30 Type 3s were unbuilt.  The type did form the basis for the Sage Type 4 floatplane, which was ordered into production but cancelled due to the end of the war.

Flash-lamp. The electric flash-lamp uses electric current to start flash powder burning, to provide a brief sudden burst of bright light. It was principally used for flash photography in the early 20th century but had other uses as well. Previously, photographers' flash powder, introduced in 1887 by Adolf Miethe and Johannes Gaedicke, had to be ignited manually, exposing the user to greater risk.

Invention 

The electric flash-lamp was invented by Joshua Cohen (a.k.a. Joshua Lionel Cohen of the Lionel toy train fame) in 1899, and by Paul Boyer in France.  It was granted U.S. patent number 636,492.  This flash of bright light from the flash-lamp was used for indoor photography in the late nineteenth century and the early part of the twentieth century.

Joshua Lionel Cohen's flash-lamp patent 636,492 reads in part, 

The principle of operation of the electrical flash-lamp is linked to the shutter of an early box camera: tripping the shutter ignites the flash powder and releases the potential energy of the exploding powder causing a bright flash for indoor photography.

Uses of flash-lamp 
The main purpose of Cohen's invention was as a fuse to ignite explosive powder to get a photographer's flash. One of the first practical applications, however, for Cohen's flash-lamp was as underwater mine detonator fuses for the U.S. Navy. In 1899, the year the invention was patented, the government awarded Cohen a $12,000 contract for 24,000 naval mine detonator fuses. The use of the flash for photography was dangerous, and photographers could get burned hands from the flash.

Frobot. Frobot is a puzzle/shooting video game developed and published by American studio Fugazo for WiiWare as well as Windows. The word "Frobot" is a portmanteau of "afro" and "robot."  The WiiWare version was released in North America on December 20, 2010 and the PC version was released on January 13, 2011.

A European version of the game was planned for WiiWare, but never released due to the shutdown of the WiiWare channel on January 30, 2019.

Gameplay
Players control the titular Frobot, a masculine robot who sports an afro and is equipped for combat. Frobot must rescue his five robot girlfriends from their demise upon their kidnapping. Gameplay involves solving puzzles and battling robots to navigate Frobot through levels set in a top-down perspective. In multiplayer mode, up to four players may fight one another as armed robots.

In single-player mode, the player controls Frobot through different kinds of scenarios while confronting enemies and solving different kinds of puzzles. The game features five different types of environments, different kinds of weapons (such as energy blasts, missiles, etc.) and boss fights. As Frobot rescues his girlfriends he regains all of his powers: remote mines, quick dash, missiles, shield, and a disco ball. Frobot has one competitive multiplayer mode that lets four players battle each other using an assortment of weapons such as energy blasts, mines, missiles, and grenades. The game has 10 different maps with present special features such as destructible walls, moving platforms, and teleporters.

Development
According to the developer, the gameplay could perhaps be summarized if one "imagine[s] if Wii Tanks and The Legend of Zelda had a baby. The baby's name would be Frobot."

Deronda Type F. The Deronda Type F is an extreme performance, road going, track day car.  It has been designed and developed by professional motorsport engineers and utilises racing car technology.

When former airline executive, Andy Round, wanted to create the ultimate performance car he contracted Racing Designs Ltd, of Buckingham, and sister company Fabrication Techniques Ltd to design and build the Deronda Type F to meet his exacting specification.

Design features
Racing Designs boss, Mark Taylor, came up with an exoskeleton car featuring a space frame chassis with wishbone suspension at each corner and push-rod operated coil-over dampers. Audi's turbocharged 1800cc 4-cylinder engine is mounted longitudinally behind the cockpit to achieve the ultimate in weight distribution. The engine is mated with Audi's 5-speed transaxle gearbox, as used in the Audi A4 and Audi A6.

Production
The first prototype was completed in 2003 and was debuted at the Autosport International show in January 2004. This car was fitted with a Cosworth Technology tuned engine that produced 300BHP.
A second car was built, SVA tested and registered for use on the road. This car was later exported to the United States, where Sirius Motosports Inc have licensed the rights to the Deronda. Sirius Motorsports subsequently developed the Deronda Type G, which uses the GM LS2 V8 from the Chevrolet Corvette.
However, health problems prevented Andy from progressing with the Type F in the United Kingdom until April 2009 when an agreement was reached with Alternative Cars Ltd, manufacturer of Midas Cars.
