Gallaudet Hydroplane. The Gallaudet Hydroplane ( Gallaudet Wing-Warping Kite or Hydro-Bike) is an early aircraft employing the use of wing-warping for roll control.

Development

The Gallaudet Hydroplane was built in Norwich, Connecticut, by Edson Fessenden Gallaudet. The principle of wing-warping was independently applied to this kite/aircraft/glider several years before the Wright Brothers applied it to their Wright Flyer. (along with Jean-Marie LeBris, John J. Montgomery, Clement Ader, D.D. Wells, and Hugo Mattullath). The Wrights later applied for a patent on wing-warping, which led to the widespread use of the aileron control method to avoid the Wright's airplane patents. Gallaudet generically employed the name hydroplane to many of his future seaplane designs. In 1908, Gallaudet would form the Gallaudet Engineering Company, (later the Gallaudet Aircraft Corporation). Later hydroplane models were built for the United States Navy.

Design
The 1897 Gallaudet Hydroplane glider featured twin floats, a central pyramidal support frame, and flexible wooden wing ribs (employing wing warping) with fabric-covering.

In 1913, Gallaudet filed U.S. Patent# 1,214,536 for the Hydroplane. The single-place open cockpit aircraft featured most of the engine enclosed in the fuselage. The fuselage tapered upwards to the rear with a small attached rudder. A single landing wheel protruded partially from the center of the fuselage for ground landings.

Operational history
The Gallaudet Hydroplane was on display at the East Hall of the Arts and Industries Building of the Smithsonian Museum.

Test flights for later hydroplanes built for U.S. Navy acceptance were performed at Gales Ferry, Connecticut in 1916.

NemHandel. NemHandel is a Danish e-invoicing infrastructure, developed by the National IT and Telecom Agency and launched in 2007. NemHandel is based on open standards (including the Universal Business Language, Reliable Asynchronous Secure Profile (RASP), and UDDI), open source components, and digital certificates. It was launched as part of a Danish Government Globalisation initiative in 2005 under the auspices of Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen.

The public sector in Denmark receives more than 15 million electronic invoices every year from approximately 150,000 suppliers. Non-electronic invoices for a public sector institution will be rejected. There are more than 30,000 public sector e-invoicing end points. An end point can be everything from a municipality to a kindergarten or even a department within a public sector institution. End points are addressed via Global Location Numbers or via Company Registration Numbers (called CVR-numbers in Denmark).

History
NemHandel was mandated by law in February 2005.  The initial version was based on traditional Electronic data interchange (EDI) methods in combination with an early version of Universal Business Language. 
The current version of NemHandel was launched in 2007 and is based on modern internet technologies.

Architecture
NemHandel is an example of the 4-Corner Model for interoperability between service providers. This model is best known from the telephony industry where Telco-operators interoperate by roaming traffic between each other. The advantage of this model is that any party in a transaction can switch provider seamlessly without having to notify the other parties with whom they exchange business documents.

T. Stephen Crawford. Thomas Stephen Crawford (1900-1987) was an American chemical engineer known for his research in coal, coal tar and coal gasification.  He was a long-serving (1945-1968) dean of the college of engineering at the University of Rhode Island, and namesake of Crawford Hall at the university.

Biography
T. Stephen Crawford was born in the village of Linton-on-Ouse, near Durham, England on 14 January 1900 to John and Sarah Jane Crawford.   John Crawford was employed as a coal miner in the Durham region until he and his whole family immigrated to America in 1913 aboard the RMS Lusitania.  The family settled in Kingwood, West Virginia.  Upon graduation from high school in 1918, Crawford began his career following his father by working as a coal miner in Elkins Mine #4 near Kingwood.  He took his B.S. in chemistry at West Virginia University in 1925, and went on at the same institution to earn his master's degree in chemistry in 1927. He earned his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the Columbia University in 1931.  Crawford married Charlotte Sibert Grayson (1907-1997) in 1930, and they had one daughter, Phyllis Lenore (Crawford) Grdenick (b. 1940).

Crawford began his professional career as a chemical engineer with the Socony-Vacuum Oil Company in 1931. Five years later in 1936, he joined the engineering faculty at Rhode Island State College; he became dean of the college in 1945 and served in that capacity until his retirement in 1969.  In 1952 Crawford was one of three engineering educators to be selected as a year-long participant in the Year-in-Industry program sponsored by the  DuPont Chemical Company, and he was named "Engineer of the Year" in 1964 by the Rhode Island Society of Professional Engineers.  He was a charter member and first president of the Rhode Island Section of the American Society of Chemical Engineers in 1953, and from 1958 to 1959, he was the chairman of the engineering division of the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges.

Community service and legacy
Crawford was an active member of the community in South Kingstown, serving as president of the Tavern Hall Club in 1943.  He served as the organist at the Episcopal Church of the Ascension in Wakefield, Rhode Island for 47 years and served 18 years on the board of trustees of South County Hospital.  In 1963, the chemical engineering building at the University of Rhode Island was named Crawford Hall in his honor.
