A man was taken to hospital with 'multiple stab wounds' following an incident on a city estate.
Emergency services were called to Peppercorn Close, Beaumont Leys after the injured man was spotted shortly after 9pm on Saturday.
The man, whose details have not been released, had been stabbed a number of times in nearby Home Farm Close, Leicestershire Police believes.
In a statement today, the force said: "Officers were called just before 9.10pm on Saturday to Peppercorn Close following a report of a man who had multiple stab wounds.
"The man is believed to have been assaulted at Home Farm Close.
"He was taken to Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham. His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.
Last week, the Leicester Mercury reported that a young man was stabbed after being chased into a Home Farm Close shop.
The pair tried to hide behind the counter of the shop but were followed and one of them was repeatedly punched during the incident which happened at about 3.20pm on Friday, April 6.
Beaumont Leys ward councillor Sue Waddington said she had spoken to the shopkeeper about the incident.
She said: "He and his family were very shaken by the incident but thankfully nobody was harmed.


We will be holding our Leavers Disco on 1st July for all our Raccoons that are leaving the nursery to go to school.
We will be playing party games and we will be showing off the leavers t-shirts that we have decorated and making photo frames to hold our class picture of the children's friends, for them to use as a keepsake and to remember their time at the Teepee.
All children are welcome to come in for the disco which will start at 4:30pm, if your child does not normally attend nursery that day please can you stay with them for the duration of the disco.
Please could each child contribute a plate of food for the disco to share with their friends.
All our leaving Raccoons will be very much missed by Kay, Alex, Kym and Katie and we wish them all the best in their move to their new schools.


Coastal zones are an area of convergence and competition which both links and separates, though vector of regional cooperation. Integrated coastal zone management represents a governance tool for Mediterranean integration.
Plan Bleu's participation in Coastal Area Management Programmes (CAMPs) has been undertaken in the framework of accreditation from the Mediterranean Action Plan (MAP) and a bordering Mediterranean country. Plan Bleu's contribution in CAMPs cover inputs of a systemic and prospective analysis, named 'Imagine', for the development and sustainable management of Mediterranean coastal zones. In 2015, Plan Bleu participated with MedSea Foundation, in the development of a coastal risk index at the scale of CAMP Var (France).
More recently, the 'Imagine' method has been upgraded in a way of its adaptation to the objectives of new projects where Plan Bleu is involved, namely Mediterranean forest ecosystems and adaptation to climate variability and change impacts in coastal zones.
On 24th March 2011 after the ratification of five countries and the European Union, an international agreement on the Mediterranean coast came into force in the form of a regional protocol on ICZM.
This protocol is crucial in MAP's history and enables countries to better manage their coastal zones by acquiring coastal policies to ensure a balance between environmental protection and economic development and adapt to emerging issues such as climate change.
The European research project named PEGASO (2010-2014) allowed, through prospective studies and tools development (indicators, scenarios, economic evaluations), to support the implementation of the ICZM Protocol in the Mediterranean.
Adaptation of the 'Imagine' method towards 'Climagine' in the frame of "Integration of climate variability and change into national ICZM strategies" project. It is an additional part of MedPartnership program, funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) under the "Sustainable Med" program.
Refinement of indicators' calculation for sustainable development of coastal zones.
New state of the art and prospective analysis (prospective analysis Med 2050, implementation of the MSSD for the period 2016-2025, ...) about relationships between Development and Environment according to main regional issues already identified (North/South relationships, green and blue economy, water supply, food safety, sea level rise,...).
The development of the coastal risk index for the whole areas of the Mediterranean boardering countries enables to identify hotspots in which further studies will be carried out, in particular in the whole area of the RAMOGE agreement.
Nearly 40% of artificialized coastline.
By 2030, + 41% of inhabitants on the Mediterranean south shore.
Salt marshes and deltas area divided by two during the 20th century.
Currently, 5% of the Mediterranean area under protected status.
Rising sea level is estimated between +0.20 and +0.60 m by 2100.

Diecezja pelplińska (; ) – jedna z trzech diecezji obrządku łacińskiego metropolii gdańskiej w Polsce, historycznie nawiązująca do diecezji chełmińskiej erygowanej przez papieża Innocentego IV 29 lipca 1243. 25 marca 1992 papież Jan Paweł II bullą Totus Tuus Poloniae populus zmienił nazwę diecezji chełmińskiej na pelplińską i włączył ją w skład nowo utworzonej metropolii gdańskiej. Zreorganizowana została również struktura diecezji. W jej skład weszła część dekanatów dawnej diecezji chełmińskiej, archidiecezji gnieźnieńskiej i diecezji koszalińsko-kołobrzeskiej.

Historia

Diecezja pelplińska historycznie nawiązuje do diecezji chełmińskiej, którą utworzono 29 lipca 1243. Przez prawie 580 lat stolicą diecezji była Chełmża. 16 lipca 1821 papież Pius VII bullą De salute animarum powiększył diecezję chełmińską i przeniósł jej stolicę z Chełmży do Pelplina. Już wcześniej biskupi rezydowali w Pelplinie, a w 1829 przeniesiono tu seminarium duchowne. Kolejnej przebudowy struktur diecezji dokonał 28 października 1925 bullą Vixdum Poloniae unitas papież Pius XI wytyczając nowe granice diecezji.

W okresie od 7 do 9 lipca 1959 w Pelplinie odbył się Synod Diecezji Chełmińskiej, natomiast 22 kwietnia 1960 erygowana została przez papieża Jan XXIII kapituła kolegiacka w Chełmnie. Od 23 października 1960 w diecezji odbywała się peregrynacja kopii obrazu Matki Boskiej Częstochowskiej, która trwała do 29 października 1961. Po zakończeniu peregrynacji obraz Matki Boskiej Częstochowskiej przekazano w Chojnicach diecezji gorzowskiej. 1 listopada 1964 papież Paweł VI erygował kapitułę kolegiacką kamieńską.

25 marca 1992 bullą Totus Tuus Poloniae populus papież Jan Paweł II dokonał reorganizacji administracji Kościoła w Polsce. W jej wyniku diecezja chełmińska została przemianowana na diecezję pelplińską i zreorganizowana co do struktury. Weszła wraz z nowo powstałą diecezją toruńską w skład nowo utworzonej metropolii gdańskiej. W wyniku reorganizacji większość byłej diecezji (chełmińskiej) pozostała w diecezji pelplińskiej, a część włączono do diecezji toruńskiej (w której znalazła się między innymi była stolica diecezji Chełmża). Pierwszym biskupem pelplińskim mianowany został dotychczasowy biskup pomocniczy chełmiński Jan Bernard Szlaga, a biskupem pomocniczym przeniesiony z diecezji koszalińsko-kołobrzeskiej biskup Piotr Krupa.

20 października 1992 erygowana została kapituła kolegiacka w Kartuzach, a 5 grudnia 1992 rozpoczęła się I sesja Diecezjalnego Synodu Plenarnego w Pelplinie. 11 marca 1993 papież Jan Paweł II nadał kościołowi pw. Ścięcia św. Jana Chrzciciela w Chojnicach tytuł bazyliki mniejszej.

Historycznym wydarzeniem w dziejach diecezji była wizyta papieża Jana Pawła II w Pelplinie, która miała miejsce 6 czerwca 1999. Rok później, 6 czerwca 2000 zakończony został uroczyście I Synod Diecezjalny, a 18 października 2000 bp Jan Bernard Szlaga erygował kapitułę kolegiacką w Koronowie. 5 marca 2011 koronowska kolegiata pw. Wniebowzięcia Najświętszej Maryi Panny została ogłoszona przez papieża Benedykta XVI bazyliką mniejszą.

15 września 2011 papież Benedykt XVI przyjął rezygnację biskupa Piotra Krupy z urzędu biskupa pomocniczego w związku z osiągnięciem przez niego wieku emerytalnego. 24 marca 2012 mianował ks. Wiesława Śmigla biskupem pomocniczym diecezji. Sakrę biskupią ks. Wiesław Śmigiel przyjął w katedrze pelplińskiej 21 kwietnia 2012. Głównym konsekratorem był abp Sławoj Leszek Głódź, a współkonsekratorami abp Henryk Muszyński i bp Andrzej Suski. W konsekracji z powodu stanu zdrowia nie uczestniczył biskup pelpliński Jan Bernard Szlaga, który kilka dni później, 25 kwietnia 2012 zmarł w szpitalu. Na czas sedewakancji administratorem diecezji został bp Wiesław Śmigiel.

27 października 2012 Benedykt XVI mianował nowego biskupa diecezjalnego. Został nim dotychczasowy biskup pomocniczy archidiecezji gdańskiej Ryszard Kasyna. Nowy biskup kanonicznie objął diecezję 1 grudnia 2012, a tydzień później 8 grudnia 2012 odbył uroczysty ingres do katedry pelplińskiej. W 2017 roku bp. pomocniczy Wiesław Śmigiel został skierowany na stanowisko biskupa toruńskiego ze względu z rezygnacji bp. Andrzeja Suskiego ze stanowiska biskupa, który rok wcześniej osiągnął wiek emerytalny. Przez półtora roku diecezja nie miała biskupa pomocniczego. W 2019 roku Franciszek skierował ks. kapelana Arkadiusza Okroja, proboszcza parafii św. Michała Archanioła w Kiełpinie, na stanowiska biskupa pomocniczego. Głównym konsekratorem był biskup diecezjalny pelpliński Ryszard Kasyna, zaś współkonsekratorami arcybiskup Salvatore Pennacchio, nuncjusz apostolski w Polsce i Wiesław Śmigiel, dawny biskup pomocniczy, ob. biskup toruński. Jako zawołanie biskupie przyjął on słowa Euntes Evangelium praedicate (Idąc, głoście Ewangelię).

8 października 2019 roku Sąd Apelacyjny w Gdańsku, wyrokiem prawomocnym, nakazał diecezji skierowanie przeprosin oraz partycypowanie w wypłacie odszkodowania w wysokości 400 tys. zł tytułem zadośćuczynienia na rzecz powoda, byłego ministranta, Marka Mielewczyka jednego z bohaterów filmu braci Sekielskich "Tylko nie mów nikomu". Będąc ministrantem był molestowany przez wikarego z Kartuz. Finansowe zadośćuczynienie mają zapłacić wspólnie wikary, Parafia św. Kazimierza w Kartuzach i diecezja pelplińska.

As the temperatures creep up and the snow melts, you might start thinking about the home renovation projects you want to undertake this spring. Whether you are renovating a room inside your home or building a new porch or deck, you're bound to accumulate more waste than can be comfortably disposed of in your standard garbage cans, and definitely more than can be reasonably sorted. Renting a roll off dumpster for your project allows you the space necessary to throw away building materials in an organized way.
When is the best time to clean and de-clutter your home? Many homeowners like to clean and organize their homes when the weather warms up. However, when temperatures fall and precipitation turns frozen, you have the best time of year to give your home a makeover.
Depending on what you are using your dumpster for, it can develop an unpleasant smell. If you notice a new odor or dirt accumulating on your dumpster or toter, you can clean it by following these easy steps!
First, make sure your container is empty. It's easiest to clean a container on collection day before you start filling it with more trash. Take your hose and spray down the inside with water. This is easiest with a sprayer attached to the hose and the water set to the "jet" setting.
Thanksgiving 11/23/2017- Closed & Trash Pickup Delayed!
Molloy Disposal Services will be closed on Thursday, November 23rd, 2017 in observance of Thanksgiving. Trash curbside pickup services will be pushed back by one day for the rest of the week. If you are scheduled for pickup on Thursday, your trash will be picked up on Friday. Friday pickups will be pushed to Saturday. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and continued business.
Downsizing can be an emotional undertaking. Whether you are preparing to move to a smaller dwelling or closing out the storage unit you visit twice a year, deciding which possessions to keep, donate or discard is a time-consuming process, and Molloy Disposal Services has some tips to ease the process for you!
Don't wait until your move or renewal date is in sight. A tight deadline will enhance the emotions of going through your belongings.
The start of fall can be an exciting one for homeowners: as it gets colder, you won't have to worry as much about regular lawn maintenance. However, the leadup to the first snowfall means having to remove any debris cluttering your yard before everything is covered, to ensure a healthy lawn next spring.
Clutter around your home adds to your overall stress level, whether you're looking to move or planning to stick around for a while. There are several benefits to cleaning out your home, both mentally and physically.
A home cleanout can lead to reduced allergy side effects. Dust mites and pet dander can collect on and around your belongings, leaving a year-round allergen in your home. Dust and other particles can also collect in the fibers of any carpeting in your home.

International E-Waste Day aims to raise public awareness
Campaigns, school and city collections, recycling center events planned Oct. 13.
Posted by Kelly Maile
Conferences & Events Electronics International Recycling News
The first International E-Waste Day to promote the correct disposal of electrical and electronic equipment throughout the world is Oct. 13.
Brussels-based WEEE Forum, a European association of electronics recyclers, developed International E-Waste Day with the support of 25 nonprofit e-waste companies in 19 different countries across the world. The association says the day will bring awareness of e-waste recycling and encourage consumers to correctly dispose of their electronics with the resulting increase in reuse and recycling rates on the day itself and into the future.
Conferences, campaigns, school and city end-of-life electronics collections and promotions in stores and recycling centers will be celebrated locally on International E-Waste Day, as well as an online guide for proper e-scrap disposal to increase consumer knowledge about e-scrap. Click here for a list of the activities taking place in different countries.
According to the association, it is estimated that 50 million tons of e-scrap will be generated globally in 2018. Half of this is personal devices such as computers, screens, smartphones, tablets and televisions, with the remainder being larger household appliances and heating and cooling equipment.
About 20 percent of global e-waste is recycled each year, which means 40 million tons of e-scrap per year is either placed in the landfill, burned or illegally traded. The results are a loss of valuable raw materials, as well as health, environmental and societal issues, the association says.
Karmenu Vella, European Union commissioner for environment, maritime affairs and fisheries, says, "This is an important and timely initiative because e-waste continues to increase in volume and the materials it contains are essential for manufacturing new products and satisfying consumer demand for e-products."
"Even in the EU, which leads the world in e-waste recycling, only 35 percent of e-waste is officially reported as properly collected and recycled," he adds. "Awareness raising initiatives impacting positively on collection rates will not only help member countries achieving the WEEE directive's targets, but also help Europe in developing the circular economy."
Pascal Leroy, secretary general of the WEEE Forum, adds, "Consumers are key to better management of e-waste and we have high aspirations that this campaign can have a huge impact on their habits. For example, in each household in Belgium there are an average of 79 electrical items as well as 47 lamps, which makes getting e-waste out of homes and businesses and into re-use and recycling plants a critical part of the challenge."
ICBR 2018 shows new trends in battery recycling
Attendees learned about developing market and battery recycling technologies.
Conferences & Events International Recycling News
More than 270 experts attended the annual International Congress for Battery Recycling ICBR 2018 Sept. 26-28 in Berlin.
Attendees experienced 30 specialist presentations, panel discussions and a workshop, as well as plant tours at Nickelhütte Aue GmbH and Electrocycling GmbH in Goslar, Germany, says Switzerland-based ICM AG, the organizer of ICBR.
Keynote speaker Kerstin Kuchta, a professor from Hamburg University of Technology, kicked off the congress with a session on the market for batteries and the opportunities and challenges that arise for the recycling industry.
Didier Marginèdes, Blue Solutions, France, spoke about changes occurring in the transport market–away from delivering transport and toward delivering solutions. In addition, Gudula Schwan, Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure, Germany, addressed the importance of hazardous goods regulations for the recycling industry.
Other presenters, such as Jos Mossink from the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), reported on the effects of the EU chemicals policy on battery recycling. Chris Heron, Eurometaux, described the connection between the European metals policy and the recycling industry, ICM says.
The presentations were supplemented by reports on market conditions for battery recycling and new technological developments. The focus was also on safety in handling lithium-ion batteries as well as their recycling. In addition, the development of electric mobility and its impact on the recycling of car batteries was addressed.
ICM says panel discussions on portable batteries and industrial battery second life were hot topics.
The conference was accompanied by an exhibitors' forum. Attendees had the opportunity to find out which innovations are currently on the market by talking to exhibitors at the venue.
The ICBR 2019 industry meeting will be held Sept. 18-20, 2019, in Lyon, France.
American Zinc Recycling to restart North Carolina plant
The plant will be designed to manufacture pure zinc metal from waelz oxide.
Megan Smalley
Nonferrous International Recycling News
American Zinc Recycling Corp. (AZR), Pittsburgh, plans to restart its Mooresboro, North Carolina, plant in late March or early April 2019. The plant is owned by the company's subsidiary, American Zinc Products LLC.
AZR recycles zinc from steel electric arc furnace plants (EAF), which produce EAF dust (EAFD) as part of their operations. AZR takes the EAFD and processes it into a zinc containing material, called waelz oxide, at its recycling plants that are located in Illinois, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Gary Whitaker, vice president, general counsel and secretary at AZR, says the Mooresboro plant is designed to manufacture pure zinc metal ("SHG" grade) from the waelz oxide through a solvent extraction and electrowinning process. He adds that the plant was built a few years ago, but it was idled so that certain design and equipment problems could be addressed.
"We started it up and it worked, but over time the product deteriorated in quality," he says. "The zinc wasn't high quality, and contaminants got in the process. So, we had to redesign certain elements of the plant. We needed a bigger unit that would, for example, essentially filter out or precipitate out contaminants that we had to replace a smaller unit with three bigger ones."
Glencore AG, a European-based metals company, has helped AZR in its efforts on the Mooresboro plant, Whitaker says. "With the assistance of Glencore and various engineering companies we have retained, and the investment of over $100 million, we believe we have resolved all the previous problems, and expect the plant to come on line as scheduled, ramping up to close to its full annual 155,000 US tons of zinc production capacity by the end of 2019," he continues.
In the long-term, Whitaker says the company wants this plant to be known as one of the world's best zinc smelters.
"We hope to have it in full capacity shortly after the end of 2019," he adds. "We'll be producing zinc metal that will be resold and eventually sold back to the steel companies."
Recycling app connects residents with waste collectors
Recycle Coach teaches communities how to waste less, recycle more.
Municipal / IC&I
It is Creighton Hooper's vision to make recycling easy for people and municipalities, especially with all the changes in the recycling market. In 2001, the president of Toronto-based company Municipal Media Inc. began using calendars to communicate with residents about waste management issues and priorities. Seventeen years later, how the company reaches residents around the world has changed, but the goal is still the same.
Three years ago, Hooper and his team launched Recycle Coach, an educational app that teaches residents about recycling and connects them with recycling programs where they live.
More than 3,000 municipalities use the app to send collection schedules, notifications and reminders to their customers, such as when to put out yard waste or when holidays will delay pickups.
While speaking at an event, Tyler Munro, a Recycle Coach content specialist, was asked what's the point of the app.
"Ultimately, when it comes to recycling, a lot of people don't realize how little they know," Munro says. "One in every 3 pounds of material that go in recycling are contaminants. People don't even realize when you go from program to program everything is different. That creates a lot of confusion. Our reason for being is to simplify everything."
The "What Goes Where?" search tool allows users to look up materials to see how to dispose of them. The database contains more than 10,000 common and uncommon items.
"There's a lot of searches for flexible packaging and resin-coated paper on the app," Munro says. "Electronics are also very popular. Unfortunately people just toss those into the garbage."
For example, residents can use the tool if they don't know what to do with plastic bags. The app will instruct them to "place all bags into one bag and tie closed." It also provides nearby drop-off locations accepting plastic bags and explains the recycled bags will be made into new products, such as plastic lumber for decks.
"If something is really easy to do, people will do it correctly," Munro says. "We're trying to make it really simple and reduce all the barriers. The average person doesn't want to spend much time thinking about their garbage, so we think of it for them."
Equipped with geolocation, the problem-reporting tool allows users to notify municipalities about issues, such as missed collections or illegal dumping. They can upload an image and share it with their city's recycling program, Munro says.
"This really empowers municipalities," he adds. "It gives them a communication infrastructure to directly contact their residents."
Other features include the "What Type of Recycler Are You?" quiz and the blog, which features articles on a range of topics from how to get rid of old furniture to the plastic straw problem.
The state of New Jersey recently joined the Recycle Coach network. Brick Township is one of many New Jersey towns where residents can now access their curbside collection calendar, notifications and recycling news on the app.
"Recycling should be one of the easiest ways for people to do good," Hooper says. "Unfortunately, it can be a little confusing. Our approach is to make it as easy as possible, so that everyone can do it correctly and reap the benefits of doing something good for themselves, their communities and the environment."

air to air refueling market
The global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market size reached USD 6.16 Billion in 2020 and is expected to register a revenue CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period. Rising need for aerial refueling to support overseas missions, increasing procurement of advanced fighter aircraft to replace older fleets and to increase defense capabilities, and increasing defense spending by governments of various countries are some of the key factors expected to continue to drive global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market revenue growth to a significant extent over the forecast period.
Aerial refueling, also known as air refueling, In-Flight Refueling (IFR), Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) is the process of transferring aircraft fuel from a carrier plane or tanker to a military aircraft or fighter jet mid-air and at high at varying altitudes. Rising need for aerial refueling to support overseas deployments owing to increasing threat of conflict and hostility between various countries are resulting in formation of alliances and countries establishing overseas military bases and deploying fighter aircraft in order to improve battle preparedness and deter possible attacks and conflict. Air-to-air refueling enables aircraft to fly longer distances without landing. Similarly, aircraft can be further used for long distance monitoring purposes due to developments in autonomous aerial refueling technologies and systems. Unmanned air-to-air refueling is steadily gaining more focus and is being tested currently, but is expected to become a highly preferred method going ahead. In a first on 4 June 2021, the U.S. Navy and Boeing demonstrated air-to-air refueling using an unmanned aircraft, Boeing's MQ-25 T1 test asset, to refuel another aircraft. Unmanned air-to-air refueling aircraft will take on the role of other planes and aircraft and assume the carrier-based tanking role and enable combat aircraft to enhance range and reach further into combat zones. Air-to-air refueling also reduces fuel consumption for long distance flights to a significant extent. Reduction in fuel consumption reduces fuel charges, which in turn is financially beneficial for the air force.
Increasing procurement of advanced fighter jets equipped with state-of-art technologies in order to modernize air force capabilities and to meet or exceed military capabilities of developed countries is a trend that is driving growth of the air-to-air refueling market. In July 2020 for instance, the first batch of Rafale jets were delivered to India by France, and the 4.5 Generation Rafale jet can attain a top speed of 1.8 Mach and have advanced capabilities. On the way to India, the Rafale jets were refueled mid-air, by two A330 Phoenix MRTT refueling planes of French Air Force, at an altitude of 30,000 feet.
Increasing defense expenditure by governments in order to create deterrence against military aggression due to rising potential of conflict and countries such as the U.S., Russia, China, and India among others shoring up defense capabilities, and increasing border tensions and disputes are some key factors propelling growth of the global air-to-air refueling market currently. Additionally, demand for air-to-air refueling is growing as it enables planes to take off with lesser fuel and shorter runway length due to reduced weight. Military aircraft mostly carry weapons, cargo, as well as army personnel, and therefore a fully fueled aircraft is subject to major load during takeoff.
However, aerial refueling operations require extensive training and skilled pilots to perform flight maneuvers as it requires proper co-ordination between pilots of jets and tanker and crew. Besides, aerial refueling can be performed under only under reasonable conditions and clear weather conditions, as turbulence and poor visibility may pose challenges. These are the key factors restraining revenue growth of global air-to-air refueling market.
Air-To-Air Refueling Market: Definition
The process of transferring aviation fuel between two aircraft in mid-flight is known as air-to-air refueling, in-flight refueling, or tanking. The "tanker" is the plane that loads the fuel, while the "receiver" is the plane that receives it. Air-to-air refueling allows planes to stay in the air for considerably longer than they normally would, and it can also save fuel and time on long manned missions. Air-to-air refueling is normally reserved for military operations flights more than 3,000 nautical miles because the practice is inherently dangerous due to the close proximity the aircraft must maintain. Air-to-air refueling was originally investigated soon before World War II, and it has since become a common procedure in military operations around the world.
There are currently two techniques to join the two aircraft during an air-to-air refueling operation once they have settled in the distance:
Probe-and-drogue — In this arrangement, the tanker connects to the receiver by a long hose with a funnel-shaped drogue that plugs into a probe. The receiver pilot must adjust the receiving probe to latch onto the drogue once the tanker stretches the hose. The latching must be done at a specific speed; if done too slowly, the probe will not latch, and if done too quickly, the hose will be punctured or broken. Although most fuel tanker aircraft are designed and built specifically for refueling, existing aircraft can be retrofitted to use a probe-and-drogue system.
Flying boom - This system connects the two planes with a sturdy tube called the boom. The boom is directed into a small opening on the receiving aircraft by a professional operator. The Air Force prefers this method because it transfers fuel faster than the probe-and-drogue system.
Air-To-Air Refueling Market: Drivers
Many countries are concentrating on improving their military capabilities. Some of the key motivations for military forces to expand their capabilities include geopolitical difficulties, territorial and border disputes, and the necessity to replace outdated fleets with contemporary fighter aircraft with improved payload capacity and flying range. An increase in interest in developing unmanned aerial systems technologies over the last decade has driven the growth of the air-to-air refueling market. Furthermore, the requisite logic and flight control systems for autonomous air to air refueling are presently being studied for systems with increasing autonomy. As unmanned aerial vehicles become more common, there will be greater demand for air-to-air refueling. Position tracking, apparatus modelling, rendezvous scheduling, wake effects, and vision-based sensors have all been studied in order to facilitate unmanned system refueling and boost the autonomy of manned aircraft refueling.
Air-To-Air Refueling Market: Restraints
One of the most important skills that military organizations strive to have is air-to-air refueling. The exorbitant expense of installation of aerial refueling systems prevents all governments from adopting them. The skill required for the success of the process is also a factor that has been restraining the growth of air-to -air refueling market.
Type Insights:
Manned segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market in 2020
On the basis of type, the global air-to-air refueling market is segmented into manned and unmanned. Manned segment is expected to account for relatively larger revenue share during the forecast period. Manned aerial refueling systems are more widely used currently and used by military, air force, as well as navy, and while unmanned refueling is still under development and testing phases, it is expected to gain traction gradually.
System Insights:
Boom refueling segment revenue is expected to expand at a rapid CAGR in the global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market during the forecast period
On the basis of system, the global air-to-air refueling market is segmented into probe and drogue, boom refueling, and autonomous. Boom refueling segment revenue is expected to expand at a rapid CAGR during the forecast period due to its flexibility and reliability over probe and drogue systems as well as technological advancements in new booms that reduce operator workload. The flying boom can pump considerably more volume of fuel than the probe-and-drogue, which makes it more efficient for large airplanes with larger fuel tanks and fuel requirements. This is expected to augment revenue growth of the segment in the near future.
Aircraft Insights:
Fixed wing segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market in 2020
On the basis of aircraft, the global air-to-air refueling market is segmented into fixed wing, fighter aircraft, tanker aircraft, military transport, attack helicopters, and transport helicopters. Fixed wing segment is expected to lead in terms of revenue contribution to the global market over the forecast period. Growth of this segment is attributed to longer distances that this type of plane can travel and more efficient aerodynamical structure which provides stability and better maneuverability as compared to other aircraft. Besides, fixed wing aircraft can also fly better in challenging weather conditions.
Components Insights:
Fuel tanks segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market in 2020
On the basis of components, the global air-to-air refueling market is segmented into pumps, valves, hoses, boom, probes, fuel tanks, and pods. Fuel tanks segment accounted for largest revenue share in the global air-to-air refueling market in 2020. Cargo planes carry large payloads, and aerial refueling enables these planes to carry less fuel during takeoff, and be refueled mid-air. Larger fuel tanks facilitate storing of more fuel thereby increasing the range that a cargo plane can travel to a significant extent. Some tankers with large fuel tanks can store up to 29,000 gallons of fuel, which allow longer distances to be covered without need for refueling.
North America accounted for a relatively larger revenue share than other regional markets in the global Air-to-Air Refueling (AAR) market in 2020
Air-to-air refueling market in North America is expected to account for larger revenue share among other regional markets during the forecast period. Increasing public-private partnerships for developing aerial refueling technology is a primary factor driving growth of the air-to-air refueling market in the region. Additionally, increasing concerns related to China and its stance in the South China Sea has led to increase in overseas deployments of U.S. warships and fighter jets in military bases in Asia Pacific. Use of mid-air refuelling services for covering longer distances and conducting surveillance missions has increased substantially in the last decade. The U.S. Air Force has operated for many years using both, boom refueling and probe and drogue systems, whereas the U.S. Navy mostly uses probe and drogue systems as it is convenient to mount on a smaller carrier-based aircraft.
Asia Pacific air-to-air refueling market is expected to register a significantly robust revenue growth rate during the forecast period. Rapid growth rate of the market is attributable to increasing government and private business funding for improving aerial refueling technologies by countries such as China, Japan, and India. This is also expected to open up significant lucrative opportunities air-to-air refueling service providers. Due to tensions between China and the U.S., the Chinese government has stopped procurement of military technology from the U.S. and has become entirely self-dependent and supports initiatives to bolster development and production of aerial refueling technology. This is another major factor driving growth of air-to-air refueling market in the region

History made real
In the early spring of 1988 we (two LDS missionaries) were on our way to an appointment in Amelia County, Virginia when we noticed a plaque next to a house on the side of the road. In the background was a lone cannon. This kind of thing was not uncommon as I had seen many Civil War and Revolutionary War era sites over the previous months. This was, afterall, Virginia.
We got out of the car to see what the plaque said. It read:
Battle of Sailor's (Sayler's) Creek
This is the Hillsman house, used by the Unionists as a Hospital in the engagement of April 6, 1865. From the west side of the creek the Confederates charged and broke through the Union infantry. But were stopped by the batteries along the hillside here. A mass surrender followed, including a Corps Commander, Gen. R.S. Ewell, several other Generals, many Colonels, about 7000 rank and file and several hundred wagons. It was the largest unstipulated surrender of the war. (over)
The other side said:
At the same time another engagement took place two miles north, on the main Sailor's (Sayler's) Creek, where Gen. John B. Gordon repulsed pursuing Union troops. He lost most of his wagons but saved the majority of his men. At this same time Gen. Robert E. Lee was tretreating from Petersburg toward Danville, closely followed by Gen. Grant. Lee lost half of his troops in these two memorable rearguard actions, which foreshadowed the surrender at Appomattox three days later.
Though it did not give the exact casualty count, I knew that it was no small number of men (young men, mind you) who had lost their lives on that spot of ground adjacent to the Hillsman house. The reality of what this piece of land, in the middle of rural Virginia, meant sunk into me. The Civil War was no longer just something found in high school text books. Real men lost their lives in that war. Real families lost their sons, fathers, and brothers.
Less than one month later, as I was moving from Farmville, Virginia to Roanoke, we stopped by the McLean House in Appomattox, CH. This was the culmination of the events that were set in motion on April 6, 1865 on a rural plot of ground in the middle of Virginia.
That was the beginning of my quest to learn all I could about that piece of history.

I was searching family history stuff the other night and ran across a list of soldiers who had joined the Confederate army from one county in North Carolina. It was unbelievable how many on the list had "killed in this battle, killed in that battle" out to the side of their name. Many had died as prisoners. Just one backwoods county in western NC.
I'd love to have the time to visit all those Civil War historical sites.

That would be very interesting indeed. I was living in a small town in eastern North Carolina for a summer. This town had Revolutionary War stuff and southern plantation stuff all over the place. This little town had had its own Tea Party before Boston had their famous history-making Tea Party. The town had adopted the Tea Pot as its symbol.
Researching family histories is another great way to make all this come alive. I would like to go back to Harper's Ferry, where many of my family comes from, just to see what the area is like today.

The Cocaine Bear Teaser Is As Devilishly Fun As It Sound
Published on December 01, 2022 10:37 AM by Michael Davis
The Meaty Thriller
In 1985, when everyone in Hollywood was taking a hit, an Asian black bear made national headlines after it consumed a large amount of Coke and was thrown out of a plane into the woods of Georgia by drug smugglers. It took almost 30 years for this jacked bear to finally make it to Hollywood with his Universal's Cocaine Bear, a meaty thriller loosely based on the 1985 ordeal.
This Horror is also a Comedy, due in February; it will be directed by Elizabeth Banks and will star Keri Russell, O'Shea Jackson Jr., Margo Martindale, Game of Thrones Christopher Hivju, and Soros' Alden Ehrenreich. Ensemble, including the cast, thus he has performed.
The New Trailer
(Image Credits: Fangoria)
The new trailer opens with two paramedics arriving in a horror movie battle scene to confront a famous cocaine bear. Russell plays a mother desperately searching for her missing child amidst a bear rampage, and Martindale plays a policeman ambushed by the beast. Modern Family's Jesse Tyler Ferguson climbed a tree to escape a bear, even though he knew full well that bears could climb trees.
The trailer uses Melle Mel's classic "White Lines (Don't Do It)" in a hilarious way. This is a groovy cautionary tale about the dangers of nasal drugs. (In the preview, Ehrenreich yells, "Bear, did cocaine! Bear did cocaine! Story" while giving a line of money. I remember reading that story and thinking.
The Cocaine Bear
Acoustically, Cocaine Bear sounds like a crossbreed between horrific creature traits like Crawl and destructive creatures. Doomed horror like Dale vs Evil. Banks first jumped into the director's chair with Pitch Perfect 2, showing a knack for crafting the fast-paced humor that makes her successful as an actress. Her last feature film, her 2019 reboot Her Charlie's Her Angels, received mixed reviews and never found a commercial footing.
So cocaine rebooting with her bear-like irreverent, low-risk action comedy is the logical choice. While the film absurdly promises a snake-on-a-plane (the trailer ends with a bear jumping into the open door of a speeding ambulance), Cocaine Bear has a poignant angle.
