Baltimore Public Works Museum. The Baltimore Public Works Museum was located at 751 Eastern Avenue, Pier 7 of the Inner Harbor, Baltimore, Maryland. This museum provided a behind-the-scenes glimpse of how a large city provides public works utility services to its citizens. Exhibits also explained street lighting, road maintenance, and trash removal. An outdoor sculpture called Streetscape was an intricate model of a network of phone lines, street lights, storm drains and pipes for water, gas, and sewage disposal. The building housing this display is an operating sewage pumping station built in 1912.

The museum opened in 1982 and was operated under the auspices of the Baltimore Department of Public Works. On February 3, 2010, the city announced that the museum would close immediately due to budget constraints.

Since then, various efforts have been made to re-open the Baltimore Public Works Museum. Attendees of the centennial celebration event of the city's Montebello Water Filtration Plant in 2015 were given blue bags by the Baltimore City Department of Public Works that had printed on them www.PublicWorksMuseum.org, a website associated with a group called "Friends of the Public Works Museum" whose goal "is to reopen the Public Works Museum", though by 2017 that did not lead to a valid website. In 2016, the building was made a Baltimore City Landmark.

In 2018, a new effort was announced to renovate the facility and open an expanded museum called the "Public Works Experience".

The Public Works Experience Board of Directors is working to rejuvenate the museum into a hands-on, STEM-focused engagement to help visitors learn about the importance of public works.  The facility is now open to the public on the second Saturday of the month, from 10am - 2pm.

Arthur T. Ippen. Arthur Thomas Ippen (July 28, 1907 – April 5, 1974) was a noted hydrologist and engineer and was an Institute Professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Born to German parents, he attended high school and college in Aachen, Germany graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering in 1931. He then took an Institute of International Education scholarship to study at the University of Iowa but after his doctoral advisor, Floyd Nagler, died suddenly, Ippen transferred to Caltech to complete his Ph.D. His doctoral work, supervised by Theodore von Kármán and Robert T. Knapp, explored sediment transport and open-channel high-velocity flows and represented the first American development of sonic wave analogy to free-surface flow.

Ippen's took his first faculty appointment at Lehigh University in 1938 and remained there until he accepted a position at MIT in 1945. While at MIT, he took over the existing Hydrodynamics Laboratory and built up a research program of staff graduate students examining the sonic analogy, transient flows, instrumentation, turbulence, cavitation, shoaling waves, stratified flow, and sediment transport. The laboratory eventually expanded and became the Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics.

Ippen served as the President of the International Association for Hydraulic Research, was elected to the National Academy of Engineering in April 1967 and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and also received honorary doctorates from the University of Toulouse, University of Karlsruhe, and the University of Manchester.

He married Elisabeth Wagenplatz while at Caltech and had two children, Erich Peter and Karin Ann. Erich P. Ippen is a professor of electrical engineering and physics at MIT and a fellow member of the National Academy of Engineering.  Elisabeth died in 1953 and Ippen married Ruth Calvert in 1955.

Lotnicze Warsztaty Doświadczalne. Lotnicze Warsztaty Doświadczalne (LWD) was the Polish aerospace manufacturer and construction bureau, located in Łódź, active between 1945 and 1950. The name meant Aircraft Experimental Workshops. It was the first Polish post-war aerospace construction bureau.

History

World War II and German occupation destroyed the whole Polish aviation industry. After eastern Poland was liberated, in October 1944 a group of designers gathered in Lublin as a Design Bureau in the Ministry of Communication. It was directed by Aleksander Sułkowski, but Tadeusz Sołtyk became the main designer. In primitive conditions, the bureau started work on a utility aircraft, the Szpak-1. In early 1945 the construction bureau moved to liberated Łódź. On April 1, 1945, the bureau established the Aircraft Experimental Workshops (LWD), subordinated to the Ministry of Communication.

The Szpak-1 was not built, but LWD designed and built its development variant, the LWD Szpak-2 utility plane. It first flew on October 28, 1945, as the first Polish post-war plane. Only single prototypes of the Szpak-2 and Szpak-3 were built, but in 1947, PZL-Mielec built 10 Szpak-4 - the first Polish post-war plane to go into production.

The next design (also in 1947) was the LWD Żak, a two-seater touring and trainer plane. A series of 10 Żak-3 was built in LWD in 1948, plus prototypes of the Żak-1, Żak-2, and Żak-4.

LWD's most successful design was a military and civilian trainer, the LWD Junak of 1948. Its improved variants, Junak-2 and Junak-3, were produced from 1951 in the WSK-4 Okęcie in Warsaw (a total of 252), although its further development was carried out outside of LWD. The LWD Zuch of 1948 was a civilian aerobatics and trainer variant of the Junak. It was a successful design, but only 7 were built in LWD because of lack of proper engines.

LWD also designed the two-engine light transport plane LWD Miś of 1949, but it was not successful and was not produced. The last LWD design was the LWD Żuraw, a two-seater military liaison and utility high-wing plane prototype completed in 1951. It was not produced either.

In 1950 LWD was converted from a construction bureau and experimental works to a production factory and renamed WSK-6 (Wytwórnia Sprzętu Komunikacyjnego 6 - Communication Equipment Factory 6). This put an end to its activity. Soon it was disbanded because of too small production capabilities. Chief designer Tadeusz Sołtyk organized a new construction bureau in the Aviation Institute in Warsaw.

Para-Cresidine. para-Cresidine is an organic compound with the formula CH3OC6H3(CH3)NH2.  It is a white solid that is soluble in organic solvents.  The compound features both amine and methoxy functional groups.  It is used as an intermediate in preparation of dyes and pigments.

Synthesis and reactions
The compound is obtained in several steps from 4-chlorotoluene.  Nitration gives mainly 3-nitro-4-chlorotoluene, which reacts with methoxide sources to give 4-methoxy-2-nitrotoluene.  Reduction of this nitro compound affords the aniline. 

Sulfonation with oleum gives 4-amino-5-methoxy-2-methylbenzenesulfonic acid.  This sulfonic acid is a precursor to allura red AC, a red food coloring.
