Posnansky/Fronius PF-1 White Knight. The Posnansky/Fronius PF-1 White Knight is a Swiss/American FAI Standard Class high-wing, T-tailed, single-seat glider that was designed and constructed by Hernan Posnansky and later greatly redesigned by Posnansky and Robert L. Fronius.

Design and development
The PF-1 was initially constructed by Posnansky in Switzerland in 1963, while he was a student at ETH Zurich there. The aircraft resembles the FFA Diamant, which was also under construction at the same time and place. Posnansky flew the aircraft for one year and then later moved to San Diego, California. The aircraft was inactive until 1983. Posnansky and Fronius greatly modified the PF-1 and re-licensed it as a US Experimental - Amateur-built, N15PF, in 1983.

The PF-1 is of mixed construction. The fuselage is a glass and foam sandwich, while the wings are from a Schleicher Ka 8 and thus have spruce spars covered in birch plywood and doped aircraft fabric covering. The wing employs a NACA 64-415 airfoil and has terminal velocity dive brakes on the top  and bottom surfaces. The tow hook is mounted on the aircraft's center of gravity. The landing gear is a fixed and faired monowheel. The cockpit features a reclined pilot position and a side-stick.

Even though it uses the same wing as the Ka 8 the White Knight has a glide ratio that is seven points higher, due to the more streamlined fuselage.

Only one PF-1 was ever built.

Operational history
As of June 2011 the PF-1 was still on the Federal Aviation Administration registry and co-owned by Posnansky and Fronius.

Sol (format). sol is a file format for representing solutions of mathematical programming problems.  It is often used in conjunction with the nl format to return solutions from the solvers. Initially this format has been invented for connecting solvers to AMPL but then it has been adopted by other systems such as FortSP for interacting with external solvers.

The sol format is low-level and is designed for compactness not for readability. It has both binary and textual representation.
Many solvers such as CPLEX and MOSEK can produce files in this format either directly or through special driver programs.

The AMPL Solver Library (ASL) which allows among other things to read and write the sol files is open-source. It is used in many solvers to implement AMPL connection.

AMPL/MP Library contains an NL writer and SOL reader.

Wittman D-12 Bonzo. The Wittman D-12 "Bonzo" was an air racer designed by Steve Wittman for the Thompson Trophy races. The aircraft's top speed of  made it faster than any United States military aircraft of the era.

Development
Wittman purchased a Curtiss D-12 engine in 1934, and designed "Bonzo" around it. In 1935, it took part in the Thompson Trophy Race. In 1936, a spring steel landing gear was installed. In 1937 a ducted fan was added to the spinner inlet, flaps were added and wingspan was reduced to . Ram air was added for the carburetors, and modified several times to get even fuel pressure.

Design
"Bonzo" featured a mid-winged taildragger design with a small squarish cross-section. The aircraft was finished in red and silver, like Wittman's smaller racer "Chief Oshkosh". The spinner featured a center cut-out to provide cooling air to a radiator. The wings were made of wood with aircraft fabric covering and closely spaced wing ribs.

Operational history
"Bonzo" was not ready for the 1934 National Air Races in time. 
1935 National Air RacesBonzo places second behind "Mr.Mulligan" with a speed of .

1937 Thompson Trophy racesEngine trouble forces Wittman from lead to fifth at .
1938 National Air RacesThird place with a leaking radiator.
1939 National Air RacesFifth place.

The D-12 engine was sold to the Falin Propeller Co. for propeller testing throughout World War II.

Variants
 Only one Wittman D-12 "Bonzo" was built, but Wittman used the name "Bonzo" again on his second midget racer patterned after the Wittman Buster.

Aircraft on display 
The D-12 "Bonzo" was donated by Wittman to anchor the EAA Airventure Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in December 1959, it was later restored for display in 1982.

Scan tool. An automotive scan tool (scanner) is an electronic tool used to interface with, diagnose and, sometimes, reprogram vehicle control modules.

There are many types from just as many manufacturers, one of the most familiar being the Snap-On Inc. "brick", or MT2500/MTG2500. Snap-On, Hella Gutmann Solutions, OTC/SPX, Xtool india, Autel, Launch, Vetronix/Bosch and a number of other companies produce various types of scan tools, from simple code readers to highly capable bi-directional computers with programming capabilities.
The scan tool is connected to the vehicle's data link connector (DLC) and, depending on the particular tool, may only read out diagnostic trouble codes or DTC's (this would be considered a "code reader") or may have more capabilities. Actual scan tools will display live data stream (inputs and outputs), have bi-directional controls (the ability to make the controllers do things outside of normal operations) and may even be able to calibrate/program modules within certain parameters. However, a typical scan tool does not have the ability to fully reprogram modules because it requires a J-2534 pass-through device and specific software.

OBD 1 vs OBD 2 the vehicle will also dictate what the scan tool is able to display. If the vehicle is equipped with OBD 1 it will have significantly less available data when compared to a vehicle equipped with OBD 2.

When a vehicle detects a problem, it generates a DTC code which is a unique code that corresponds to the specific problem detected. The code is usually a combination of letters and numbers.

DTC codes are read by a diagnostic tool, such as an OBD 2 scanner, which is plugged into the vehicle's diagnostic port. The tool communicates with the vehicle's onboard computer and retrieves the DTC codes. The codes are then interpreted by the mechanic or technician to determine the specific problem with the vehicle.

Chromalox, Inc.. Chromalox, Inc. manufactures and supplies electric heat and control products for industrial heating applications in the U.S. and internationally. Based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the company has manufacturing facilities in Ogden, Utah; La Vergne, Tennessee; Nuevo Laredo, Mexico; and Soissons, France. Chromalox also provides engineering and sales expertise, as well as warehousing throughout North America, Europe and Asia. Sales and service are provided through sales representatives and distributors globally.

The company serves a wide variety of industries, including alternative fuels, biopharmaceuticals, chemical processing, commercial food equipment, laboratory and analytical, marine, medical equipment, nuclear energy and power generation, petrochemical, oil and gas, solar energy, transportation and wastewater treatment. It provides industrial heaters, temperature control products, heat tracing products and packaged heating systems that include heat transfer and vaporizer systems, large tank heating systems, boilers and steam generators, air handlers and load banks.

History
The company traces its origin to 1915 when a Pittsburgh engineer, Edwin L. Wiegand, received a patent for a resistance heating element embedded in an insulated refractory enclosed in a metal sheath. This electric heating method would eventually be applied to home cooking and heating as well as manufacturing processes. Chromalox incorporated in 1917, with the company's first order for a strip heater used in a product that became the modern household clothes iron. The product had the word "chrome" stamped on the strip heater and used a cement mix to "lock" in the heating element, hence the name "Chromalox."

The company continued to grow and developed a Pittsburgh manufacturing presence in the 1920s, developing new industrial heating products and processes. It expanded into the nuclear industry in the 1950s, supplying pressurizer heaters. Chromalox was also a supplier to the aerospace support industry in the 1960s, with a Chromalox strip heater included on the first Apollo Lunar Module.

Chromalox expanded into global markets by acquiring two manufacturing facilities, Grimwood in England, and Etirex in France. In 1977, Chromalox Industrial Controls was born with the purchase of Rosemount Temperature Controls in LaVergne, TN. The controls product lines were diversified and expanded, positioning Chromalox as a leader in the industry. International manufacturing acquisitions continued in the 1990s, and a Hong Kong regional sales office was added in 1993 to service Asian markets.

Acquisition
The company was acquired by Sentinel Capital Partners from CCMP, a division of J. P. Morgan Partners, on April 14, 2011.

The company was acquired by Spirax-Sarco Engineering on May 26, 2017.

Scorpene deal scam. The Scorpène deal scam was an Indian bribery scandal, in which USD 175 million (Rupees 1,100 crores) were alleged to have been paid to the Government of India’s defence procurement decision makers by Thales, a French defence and aerospace company. In 2005, the Minister of Defence, Pranab Mukherjee, approved the deal to build s, which was worth US$3 billion (Rupees 19,000 crores) with Thales. However, in 2008, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), found no evidence of corruption in the deal. Scorpène-class submarines are now being built in India under a technology transfer agreement that was part of that contract.

Allegations and investigation
The amount of US$175 million was allegedly channeled and paid to middleman billionaire arms dealer Abhishek Verma who is known as the Lord of War and is the prime accused in the Navy War Room spy scandal and many other defense scandals in India.

The investigation moved very slowly. In 2007, Prashant Bhushan of the Centre for Public Interest Litigation filed a petition with the Delhi High Court to investigate whether there had been kickbacks in the  deal. The Delhi High Court took a strong line with the investigating agency CBI, saying "We feel dissatisfied with what you've done so far. If you've tried to shield someone, then we will come down very heavily on you". French submarine manufacturer Thales refuted the charges, with its country director in India, Francois Dupont, saying, "The e-mails are forgeries and we have sued the news magazine for this."  Arms dealer Abhishek Verma sued former Deputy Prime Minister of India L.K.Advani and Outlook magazine for criminal defamation in 2006 for maligning his name and launching attacks merely on account of political vendetta. In 2016, Abhishek Verma and L.K.Advani resolved their differences amicably and Verma withdrew his defamation case against Advani from Punjab and Haryana High Court.

Result
In 2008, the CBI told the Delhi High Court that after investigations, it had found no evidence of payment of kickbacks in the US$6 billion deal. However the case dragged on for eight years in Delhi High Court. On 13 January 2016 the Chief Justice of Delhi High Court dismissed the PIL (Public Interest Litigation) filed by Prashant Bhushan in 2007, thereby exonerating Abhishek Verma.
