SlipStream Genesis. The SlipStream Genesis is a family of American, strut-braced, high wing, pusher configuration, tricycle gear aircraft, produced in kit form, for amateur construction. Designed by Chuck Hamilton, the series were originally produced by Innovation Engineering of Davenport, Iowa and more recently by SlipStream International of Wautoma, Wisconsin.

Design and development
Developed in 1991 for the homebuilt aircraft market, the Genesis is built from aluminium tubing, riveted together using stainless steel gussets for support. The tail surfaces are suspended from a distinctive series of four tubes that curve to allow clearance for the pusher propeller. The wings and tail surfaces are covered with doped aircraft fabric or optionally with pre-sewn Dacron sailcloth envelopes.

The series is unusual in having control yokes in place of the more common control sticks used on this class of aircraft.

The Genesis can be fitted with floats or skis. Options include larger fuel capacity, electrically-operated flaperons and trim, wheel pants and ballistic parachute.

Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge. Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge is a self-anchored suspension bridge in San Diego, California. A pedestrian and bicycle crossing, it spans the San Diego Trolley and San Diego and Arizona Eastern Railway in downtown San Diego. The bridge connects otherwise disconnected segments of Park Boulevard, allowing pedestrians easier access between East Village and the waterfront. It is  long, which makes it one of the longest self-anchored pedestrian bridges in the world. The span measures  while the remainder is approaches.

Completed in March 2011, the bridge was built to allow pedestrian traffic on Park Boulevard to safely cross six sets of railroad tracks and Harbor Drive. The bridge also completes the "Park to Bay Link", a long term vision of city planners to develop a public parkway or green belt along Park Boulevard in order to connect Balboa Park with San Diego Bay. The bridge crosses over six lanes of traffic on Harbor Drive, a rail yard and trolley tracks, and is adjacent to Petco Park and the San Diego Convention Center. It is accessible by stairs and elevators.

The bridge was built by Reyes Construction, Inc. T.Y. Lin International engineered the project, and Safdie Rabines Architects was project architect. It cost $26.8 million and was funded in part by a $6 million grant from the California Transportation Commission. The bridge is suspended from a single 131-foot-tall (40 m) pylon set into the ground at a 60-degree angle. The unusual, iconic structure features a curved concrete deck that is suspended only on the deck's inside curve by a single pair of suspension cables. The bridge was constructed using stainless steel and has lighting above and below the deck. It has been described as "a sleek, nautically themed bridge with a very nice view of the city".

ASM-N-5 Gorgon V. The ASM-N-5 Gorgon V was an unpowered air-to-surface missile, developed by the Glenn L. Martin Company during the early 1950s for use by the United States Navy as a chemical weapon delivery vehicle. Developed from the earlier PTV-N-2 Gorgon IV test vehicle, the program was cancelled without any Gorgon Vs seeing service.

Design and development
The Gorgon V project was begun in 1950 to develop an air-to-surface missile capable of dispersing chemical warfare agents over a combat area. Designing of the missile was contracted to the Glenn L. Martin Company, which used the company's earlier PTV-N-2 Gorgon IV ramjet test missile as a basis for the weapon's design. The Gorgon V was to be a long slender missile, with swept wings and conventional tail. The Gorgon IV's ramjet engine, slung beneath the missile's tail, was replaced in the Gorgon V with a X14A aerosol generator, developed by the Edo Aircraft Corporation.

Operational use of the Gorgon V was intended to be based on two missiles being carried by a launching aircraft. These would be released at an altitude of . The Gorgon V would be piloted by autopilot in a high-subsonic dive. Upon reaching an altitude of  or less, as measured by a radar altimeter, the aerosol generator would be activated, dispersing chemical agent over an area of up to  by .

Development of the Gorgon V continued throughout the Korean War. In 1953 it was projected that the weapon would be ready for operational service by 1955. Later that year, the Gorgon V was cancelled by the US Navy. It is unknown if any prototypes were constructed before the termination of the project.

New York Society of Model Engineers. The New York Society of Model Engineers (NYSME) is an American 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of the model engineering, model railroading, and the preservation of American railroad history. Formed in 1926, it is the oldest model railroad Society in America. It is located in Carlstadt, New Jersey.

History 
The Society was originally formed in 1926 in New York City. In its early years, the organization moved to various locations throughout Manhattan. Members were interested in all types of model building, with model trains being a division of the organization. They were also known for building miniatures and models of steam engines, boats, automobiles, airplanes, buildings, as well as mechanical and electrical items.

In 1934, the Society was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York. During this time, the Society also began construction of its first Model Railroad, "The Union Connecting." Over the next twenty years, the Society moved from its original location to two other locations. Each move doubled the size of the previous location and the size of the model train layout.

During WW II, many Society members were called to service in the Armed Forces. Upon their return from the war, members of the Society searched for a new location and received an invitation from the Lackawanna Railroad to move into their Passenger Terminal in Hoboken, NJ. They had the space for what would become the largest model railroad in the world at that time: the ornate waiting room for the recently discontinued ferry boats to 23rd Street in New York City. Here, the layout was built. It was based on the Lackawanna Railroad from Hoboken to Scranton, PA. During the early-1950s the organization moved to its current location in Carlstadt, New Jersey.

Today, The organization features two operating model railroad displays. One railroad, The Union Connecting, models two rail "O"-Scale (1/4" to the foot). The other railroad, The Union, Hoboken, and Overland, models "HO" scale (3.5mm to the foot).

Full members of the Society are allowed to use all the facilities of the organization including extensive railroad library of video tapes, books, and magazines. Full members are also allowed free access to the Society's machine shop and tools. In addition, full members are allowed access to both "O" and "HO" scale layouts following the completion of training in control systems and operating the layouts. Both layouts are large and operate very similar to prototype railroad operations. New members are trained by more experienced members.

Fluorescence intermittency. Fluorescence intermittency, or blinking, is the phenomenon of random switching between ON (bright) and OFF (dark) states of the emitter under its continuous excitation. It is a common property of the nanoscale emitters (molecular fluorophores, colloidal quantum dots) related to the competition between the radiative and non-radiative relaxation pathways. 
The peculiar feature of such blinking in most cases is the power-law (in contrast to exponential) statistics of the ON and OFF time distributions, meaning that the measurements of the time-averaged intensity of a single emitter is not reproducible in different experiments and implying a complex dynamics of the involved process. In other words, in one experiment the emitter can blink frequently, while in another it may stay ON (or OFF) for almost entire length of the experiment (even for extremely long measurement times).

For CdSe-ZnS core-shell nanocrystals, "charge trapping" is the dominant theory explaining observed power-law blinking kinetics. Charge carrier trapping describes the transfer of a charge carrier from a delocalized electronic state of the nanocrystal to a localized state.

ANF Les Mureaux 190. The ANF Les Mureaux 190 was a French prototype light fighter aircraft. In response to a program created by the French Minister of Air, the ANF Les Mureaux 190 was designed by André Brunet as a light fighter. The ANF Les Mureaux 190 was an all-metal monoplane, and was first tested in July 1936, then taken to the 15th Paris Air Show in late November, where it was asserted to be very manoeuvrable. However, less than a year later, the project was abandoned due to the poor quality of its engine.

The ANF Les Mureax 190 was powered by a 450 hp Salmson 12 Vars inverted V-12 engine. its proposed armament consisted of a  engine-mounted cannon, and two 7.7mm (.30-caliber) wing-mounted machine guns.

SSM-A-5 Boojum. The XSSM-A-5 Boojum, also known by the project number MX-775B, was a supersonic cruise missile developed by the Northrop Corporation for the United States Air Force in the late 1940s. Intended to deliver a nuclear warhead over intercontinental range, the project was determined to be too ambitious given technical difficulties with the SM-62 Snark which it was planned to follow, and it was canceled in 1951.

Development
As part of a United States Army Air Forces effort to develop guided missiles for the delivery of nuclear weapons, the Northrop Corporation was awarded a development contract in March 1946 for the design of two long-range cruise missiles designated MX-775. The contract called for a subsonic missile MX-775A, later designated SSM-A-3 Snark, and a more advanced supersonic missile MX-775B, which in 1947 was given the name SSM-A-5 Boojum. Northrop named the missiles after characters from the works of Lewis Carroll, with Boojum coming from the final line of The Hunting of the Snark.

Designated N-25B by the company, the final design called for a long, slender missile, fitted with delta wings, and powered by a pair of General Electric turbojet engines, mounted in nacelles near the tips of the wing.

The missile was intended to be launched using a rocket sled; air-launch from a Convair B-36 heavy bomber was an alternative that was studied. The missile would climb at subsonic speed to its operating altitude, then conduct a supersonic dash to the target area, guided by a celestial navigation system. A "slipper" type drop tank would be jettisoned halfway through the flight. The Boojum was intended carry a warhead weighing up to  over a range between .

Cancellation
At the end of 1946, the contracts that had been awarded to Northrop were revised; the Snark was canceled, while the Boojum was to be fully developed as an operational system. Northrop lobbied for the reinstatement of the Snark, however; this was successful in getting the program reauthorized during 1947, with the Boojum being deferred to a follow-on project.

Despite the design having been finalized, the United States Air Force (which the USAAF had become in 1948) determined that the project was technologically unfeasible, given continuing development difficulties and technical problems encountered during the Snark's development. Accordingly, in 1951, the Boojum project was canceled, before any prototypes of the missile had been constructed.
