Medeco is a manufacturer of high-security locks.
The name Medeco is short for Mechanical Development Company.
The Medeco cylinder uses a rotating pin and sidebar design with angled cuts on the keys that rotate the pins, making it more difficult to pick than most other locks.
However, it is possible to pick a Medeco lock.
In 2006, it was discovered that a set of only four bump keys could open almost any Medeco lock at that time.
Newer Medeco locks require a much larger set of bump keys.
These keys are referred to as the "Four Keys to the Kingdom" among locksmiths.
Medeco is owned by the ASSA ABLOY Group, which also owns Abloy and many other lock manufacturers.

Busiest airports in the United Kingdom
LaGuardia Airport  () is an airport in the northern part of the New York City borough of Queens.
The airport is on the edge of Flushing Bay and Bowery Bay.
It borders the neighborhoods of Astoria, Jackson Heights and East Elmhurst.
La Guardia is popular because of its location near to Manhattan.
Although the airport is small in size, wide-body airliners once flew there often.
The McDonnell Douglas DC-10 and Lockheed L-1011 were designed for use at LaGuardia.
The Boeing 767-400ER is the largest airliner that once flew to LGA; from 2000 to 2005, Delta used the 764 with 285 seats.
Today, there are usually no widebody flights.
Delta Air Lines does use a Boeing 767-300 at times for one of its Atlanta flights, and Air Canada sometimes sends their 767-300s there.
On July 11, 2012, the airport became a domestic hub for Delta Air Lines.
It is also a focus city for American Airlines and American Eagle.
LaGuardia is the smallest of the New York metropolitan area's three main airports.
The other two are John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in southern Queens and Newark Liberty International in Newark, New Jersey.
LaGuardia is the closest of the three to Manhattan.
These three airports are the largest airport system in the United States.
They are the second most busy system of airports in the world by number of passengers.
They are the first in the world in terms of total flight operations.
In 2010, the airport had just under 24.0 million passenger.
JFK had 46.5 million and Newark had 33.1 million.
A total of about 104 million travelers used New York airports.
Most flights from LaGuardia go to locations inside the United States and Canada.
Some flights also go to Aruba, the Bahamas, and Bermuda, which have United States Department of Homeland Security preclearance services.
The airport has ICE/CPB facilities to deal with  customs and immigration for international flights but they cannot deal with a large number of passengers at one time.
LaGuardia is the busiest airport in the United States without any non-stop flights to and from Europe.
Nonstop flights to or from LaGuardia are limited to only .
This does not include flights on Saturdays and flights to Denver.
Because of this most flights across the continent and international flights use JFK or Newark.
The airport was first named Glenn H. Curtiss Airport.
It was named for Glenn Hammond Curtiss.
It was later renamed North Beach Airport.
New York City took control of the airport and named it New York Municipal Airport-LaGuardia Field.
In 1953, it was named "LaGuardia Airport" for Fiorello La Guardia, the mayor of New York when the airport was built.
The airport is run by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

Boris Godunov () is an opera by Modest Mussorgsky (1839–1881).
It was the only opera that Mussorgsky finished.
It is his most famous work and one of the most famous of all Russian operas.
It was composed between 1868 and 1873.
What the opera is about
The story of the opera is based on something that really happened in Russian history.
The Russian people were ruled by a tsar (an emperor).
The previous tsar Tsar Ivan IV was known as “Ivan the Terrible”.
He was terribly cruel and the Russian people suffered badly under his rule.
They were hungry, they were tortured and killed.
When he died his son became Tsar, but he was mentally retarded (he had “learning difficulties”) so a group of powerful people including Boris Godunov had to rule for him.
Ivan also had another son, but he disappeared.
He was almost certainly murdered, and Boris Godunov, who wanted to become tsar himself, had probably ordered him to be murdered (for the sake of the opera, Mussorgsky assumes that he was indeed guilty of his murder).
Then he persuaded the Russian people that they should choose him to be their tsar.
Some years later a young monk escapes from his monastery and pretends to be the murdered son of Ivan the Terrible.
He gets a Polish army to help him to fight Boris Godunov.
Boris Godunov feels terribly guilty about the murder.
He suffers so much that he dies.
The young monk arrives in Moscow and makes himself tsar (Tsar Dimitri II).
The ordinary Russian people remain desperately poor.
It is their fate to suffer, ruled by cruel tyrants.
How the opera was composed
The composer wrote the words (the libretto) himself.
It was based on a play by Aleksandr Pushkin.
Mussorgsky also read a famous book on the history of Russia: Nikolay Karamzin's History of the Russian State and used some of the historical material from this book.
Originally Mussorgsky composed the opera in 1869, but in those days it had to be approved by the censors before it was allowed to be performed.
The opera was rejected by the censors.
The main reason they gave was that there were no female characters in the opera.
Mussorgsky made lots of changes, including adding a whole new act with Dimitry in love with a Polish princess.
Another reason why the opera had been rejected was that composers and dramatists were not allowed to have the character of a tsar on stage.
However, Tsar who then ruled said he did not mind, so the opera was first performed in 1874 in Saint Petersburg.
The opera Boris Godunov can either be performed in the first version of 1869, or in the second version of 1874.
In fact performances of the opera have often been something of a mixture, as opera directors have often made cuts, or changes to the music or the order of scenes.
The composers Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and Dmitri Shostakovich have both made new editions of the opera in which they thought they could improve some of Mussorgsky’s harmony or orchestration.
For many years it was these editions that were usually performed.
Nowadays people realize more and more that Mussorgsky’s harmonies and orchestrations, which were very original for their time, were quite deliberate and very effective.
Modern performances therefore often go back to what Mussorgsky originally wrote.
By the close of 1868, Mussorgsky had already started two operas, but never finished them These were Salammbô and Marriage, which was influenced by Alexander Dargomyzhsky's opera The Stone Guest.
Mussorgsky was breaking away from the Romantic style that many composers used at the time.
He had learned a lot by trying to write these operas and he used some of the musical ideas in Boris Godunov.
Vladimir Nikolsky, a professor of Russian history, suggested to Mussorgsky the idea of writing an opera about Boris Godunov, based on Pushkin’s play.
Mussorgsky worked very fast on the opera, finishing the vocal score (i.e. without the orchestration) in 9 months.
During this time he was also working as a civil servant.
When he state censor rejected the opera he worked another two years on it, adding a female role as required, and making other changes he felt necessary: adding three scenes, cutting one and changing another, adding songs for the Hostess, Fyodor and the Nurse.
In 1873 three scenes were performed, and on 27 January 1874 the first performance of the whole opera took place.
The conductor, Nápravník, was a good conductor, but he often made cuts in the operas he performed.
He cut the whole of the Cell Scene because he thought the opera was too long.
Nevertheless, it was a great success among many people, although some critics hated it.
It was performed 21 times in Mussorgsky’s lifetime.
Famous interpreters of the main role
During the early 20th century the Russian bass singer Fyodor Shalyapin was a very famous singer who often sang the role of Boris.
Time: The years 1598 to 1605

Scene i. This takes place five years later in a monastery.
An old monk, Pimen is writing the history of Russia.
He has nearly finished, and he has got to the year when the Tsar’s son seems to have been murdered.
He is reading what he has written to a young monk, Grigory.
Grigory then has a dream.
In the dream he is standing on top of a high tower and looks down on the people who are laughing at him.
He feels guilty and falls from the tower.
Pimen tries to comfort him.
He says that Boris murdered the Tsar’s son.
Grigory learns that the Tsar’s son, if he had still been alive, would have been the same age as he is now.
He decides to pretend to be the Tsar’s son and to claim the throne as his.
Scene ii takes place in an inn on the border of Russia with Lithuania.
The hostess sings a silly song.
Two monks, Varlaam and Missail, come in.
Grigory is with them.
He has run away from the monastery.
The two wandering monks were showing him the way to the Lithuanian border.
The two monks start to get drunk and sing.
Grigory does not join in, his just sits there.
Two guards (like policeman) appear.
They are looking for Grigory because they know that the runaway monk is a going to be a threat to the Tsar.
They have a description of the wanted man.
They ask whether anyone can read (hardly anyone could read in those days, except monks).
Dimitri says he can read, so he takes the piece of paper and starts to read the description of the wanted man.
He is describing Varlaam.
Varlaam realizes this and snatches the paper from him.
He decides he can read after all.
He starts to read a description of Dimitri.
Dimitri escapes through the window.

He tells him to concentrate on his lesson.
One day he will rule the country and he will need to be wise.
Boris sings of his terrible feelings of doubt and agony (because he is guilty of murder).
A boyar enters and tells Boris that Shuisky wants to speak to him.
He warns Boris that Shuisky is on the side of the Poles who are against him.
When Shuisky enters he tells Boris that a pretender has come who claims to be the Tsar’s son who is thought to have been murdered.
Boris asks Shuisky whether it really was the Tsar’s son who was killed and buried.
Shuisky says that it definitely was, and that he had watched over the body for five days.
Boris cannot bear to hear any more and tells Shuisky to leave.
He then sinks back in a chair.
A clock chimes and the figures on the clock move.
Boris thinks they are aghost of the murdered child.
He goes mad.
The scene takes place in the royal palace in Poland.
Dimitri has gone to Poland to persuade the Polish army to support him in his fight against Boris.
The Poles are glad to do this because they often fought Russia when they thought they could take a bit of their land.
They want the Polish Princess Marina to marry Dimitri (they think, of course, that he really is the Tsar’s son Dimitri, they don't know that he is really a young monk called Grigory).
Princess Marina sings of her love for Dimitri.
She has not met him yet, but she would like to be Tsarina (the wife of the Tsar) because that would bring her power.
Rangoni tells Dimitri that the Princess is in love with him.
A meeting is arranged in the garden.
Princess Marina is horrible to him.
She persuades him to act quickly to get an army together to march to Moscow and get the throne.
They embrace.
Rangoni is pleased, because it will be a triumph for his church.
Scene i takes place in the palace in the Kremlin.
Shuisky tells the assembled noblemen that he saw Boris who seemed to be having a mad fit.
He was shouting “Away!
Away!”
and waving his arms.
Just at that moment Boris enters doing just that.
He does not seem to notice any of the boyars who are standing there.
Shuisky manages to persuade him to sit down on his throne.
Shuisky then says that there is a holy man outside who has something to say to everyone.
The man is let in.
It is Pimen.
He tells a strange story.
It is about a shepherd who was blind.
He had a dream in which he was told to go to the tomb where the murdered Tsar’s son Dimitri lies buried.
He went there and prayed.
Immediately he was able to see.
Boris becomes terribly distressed at this story.
He calls for light, he collapses in the arms of the boyars, and he sends for his son Fyodor.
Boris asks to be left alone with him.
He then says goodbye to his son and tells him to take good care of the Russian people.
Monks behind the scene pray for the soul of Boris.
Boris dies.
Scene ii takes place in the forest of Kromy.
Dimitri has marched into Russia leading his troops.
The Russian people are starving and law and order has broken down.
A very simple man (the Simpleton) sings a simple song.
A group of children tease him and steal his money (just one kopek).
Varlaam and Missail sing in praise of Dimitri.
They point out two men who are Jesuits, and the people get ready to hang them.
Dimitri enters and frees the Jesuits.
The people rejoice because Dimitri is to be their new tsar.
He tells the people to follow him to Moscow.
All exit and the Simpleton is left alone on stage.
He sings a simple song which expresses the sadness of the poor, hungry Russian people.
Order of the scenes in the last act
There has been a lot of discussion about the order of the two scenes in Act IV: scene i which shows the death of Boris and scene ii which shows the Russian people in the forest.
The order given above is what Mussorgsky wanted.
For him, the most important thing about the opera was to express the tragedy of the Russian people who are always doomed to be ruled by cruel tyrants.
When Rimsky-Korsakov edited the opera after Mussorgsky’s death he put Boris’s death scene last.
Finishing the opera with Boris’s death meant that the personal tragedy of Boris was the most important thing.
Certainly, famous singers who sang the role of Boris, such as Chaliapin, liked the opera to finish with Boris’s death.
Nowadays the opera is nearly always performed with the forest scene finishing the opera.
This was Mussorgsky’s intention.
It is about the tragedy of the people, and this is put into words by the Simpleton, who expresses the truth through his simple words.
