Dragon The Bruce Lee Story SNES Game Cartridge
Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story was released for the SNES in 1995. It was developed by Virgin Interactive and published by Acclaim Entertainment. The game was based from the movie having the same name, which is a somewhat fictional account of Bruce Lee's life.
The player will take control of Lee and will need to defeat a sailor from a Hong Kong dance, chefs from a Chinese Restaurant located at San Francisco, master of martial arts who challenge Lee, and others to progress in the game. It will recall action scenes that were in the movie. The game, however, leaves out important story information that was in the movie and also a lot of the romance scenes between Bruce Lee's future wife and himself.
The player is able to use various moves from martial arts to defeat enemies and build their chi meter. The chi meter will allow the player to use special moves on opponents. There will be a total of three continues to use and if they are lost, the player will need to fight an enemy called The Phantom, who is Bruce's personification of fear and will change into a Japanese Samurai that is armored, to continue. Phantom, however, is close to invincible. The player will fight Phantom Samurai again at the game's end as the final boss.
Three players are supported simultaneously. They can either choose to play the game cooperatively or against one another in the battle mode. The characters that are not Bruce Lee will not be playable. Therefore, additional players will use Bruce Lee clones that are differentiated with different trouser colors.

Thanksgiving and Christmas … two holidays wrapped up in gratitude and appreciation. But how do you celebrate these two holidays when you're hurting, scared or dealing with limitations?
You celebrate the gift of time.
If your head hurts, thank God for the sense of feeling.
If you've lost your ability to walk, be thankful for all the years you ran.
If you suffer from confusion, know the pillow you lay your head on will hold you safe until you awaken.
If your balance is gone, appreciate the days you had when you didn't wobble.
Hear the tha-thump? That's your greatest gift–your heart beat. You have no control over it. Life is a gift from God every time your heart beats. So why worry about what tomorrow has in store for you? It isn't here yet! Why fret over what use to be. It's over! If you can't enjoy what you remember, leave it behind.
Life was ripe for me April 11, 2011. I had a tumor on my brain that had been there between 10-12 years. I had more strikes against staying alive than dying. But I am grateful it wasn't my time to pass.
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." (Ecclesiastes 3:1) We don't determine when we die, but we can use our time left wisely. Don't waste what you have today on what was or what could be. Embrace now. That's all there really is.

This evening, at seven o'clock, a special broadcast was aired by all national (Dutch) television and radio stations; it was announced rather suddenly at the end of the afternoon. Expected for some time, but unexpected, impressive and well executed in its timing, it is typical for her style as a monarch. Her Majesty, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, has announced her upcoming abdication on April 30th this year; after having (proverbially) sat on the throne for thirty-three years.
She will hand over the crown to her eldest son, His Royal Highness, the Prince of Orange – who might just become King Willem IV, his regnal name is still uncertain I believe. But one thing is certain, for the first time since the death of King Willem III in 1890, well over a hundred and twenty years ago, there shall be a King ánd a Queen of the Netherlands, as his wife Her Royal Highness, Princess Máxima shall become Queen-consort. Queen Beatrix was the third female monarch in her own right, with a prince-consort. Her husband, the highly-respected Prince Claus (1926-2002), passed away ten years ago.
H.M. The Queen, 28 januari 2013 © RVD
Her Majesty's speech, in a quick translation:
(the original in Dutch can be found here)
" As it is common knowledge, I am hoping to celebrate my 75th birthday in a few days; I am grateful that is has been granted to me to approach this day in good health. At the end of this year, we commemorate that, two-hundred years ago, our nation became a kingdom, by which a new era began in our history. The concurrence of these two special occasions has for me been the reason to decide to abdicate the throne this year. After having contemplated this for several years, it seems to be the right time to now effectively take the step.
I have always considered it an exceptional privilege in having geen able to dedicate a large part of my life to serving our country, and to bring my interpretation to the task of monarch, within the assignment given to me. In this, Prince Claus has been a great support to me for many years.
To this very day, this wonderful task has brought me much fulfilment. It is inspiring to feel close to people, to share in their sorrows and in their times of happiness and national pride. This I have also experienced in the Caribbean parts of our Kingdom, where I have always found much warmth and kind-heartedness.
The reason for my abdication is not because the task is becoming too heavy a burden for me, the decision has been made from the conviction that the responsibility for our country should lie in the hands of a new generation. It is with great confidence that on April 30th of this year I shall hand over the crown to my son, the Prince of Orange. He and Princess Máxima have been fully prepared for their future task. They shall serve our country with dedication, loyalty to the constitution, and giving their own interpretation to the monarchy with all their talents.
Despite the fact that I take this step in favour of my successor, I am reassured by the thought that this will not mean a farewell from you, and I hope to still enjoy meeting many of you. I am truly grateful for the confidence you have given me through the many beautiful years in which I was allowed to be your Queen. "
To me it marks the end of an era, as she was the monarch under whose rule I was born, she had ascended the throne a year before as successor to her mother, Queen, then Princess Juliana (1909-2004). In my family there is an ancient tradition of serving the monarchs of those countries they lived in, or of those they belonged, or were loyal to, as diplomats, military and court-dwellers; and although that actual service has faded out around the time of the major World Wars – we were all brought up with the idea that a monarchy serves a purpose and should be preserved. And this is also my personal belief. Of course, the monarchy does not exist any longer in the traditional sense, but as it is proven in modern monarchies: Although a historical office, it can be a vital part of the democratic constitution. Yes, it is hereditary and by all means unequal – but would anyone wish to trade places with them? If you have a realistic view on what it would mean for a person to be the (future) monarch or to be part of that family… you would kindly decline. It is a life in the traditional way of serving, whereas in the past a family had the power to decide over their country and its peoples, they are now very much ruled themselves by that nation. It is perhaps the most ungrateful task of all, they have to maintain the fairy-tale and represent their nation. When one looks around in Europe there is a mix of (constitutional) monarchies and republics. And most of the former are solid countries with a sense of tradition and stability, where the politicians also may relentlessly make a mess of things, but at least it doesn't harm the reputation of a country due to the simple fact that the head of state stands above it all, who feels and displays their responsibility as the monarch, even though their powers to actually change things are highly limited. Presidents who are holding the office as head of state for a few years, may perhaps feel the responsibility but they do not always act the part and are constantly aware of their party politics and their own future 'after office'. These few historical families, they were born to it, they are locked to it – by the grace of their peoples and by their own dedication. I still feel that no person can represent a country in such a way, with that kind of rooted tradition, appearance, stability, and even glory, as a monarch and their family. And Queen Beatrix, even just by this speech she delivered, proved that point.
The Dutch monarchs have always kept up the tradition of abdicating (albeit not always voluntarily); where most monarchs only pass the crown to their successor on their death, they retire at some point. And I think there will be few people in the Netherlands denying that this particular Queen does not deserve her retirement from the throne. Despite her solid reputation as a business-like woman, she has shown the nation that she was always there on the crucial moments. She also held up the tradition of not complaining and carrying on with your duties; despite the heavy blows one is given through life; for example, the death of her husband, and the terrible accident of her second son who's been in a coma for nearly a year now. She deserves spending her remaining years, may there be many, in good health and surrounded by her (grand)children without the affairs of state.
And the country? The media will go crazy for a few days. We can look forward to endless reports about the smallest detail, and constant overviews on her reign. And then there is the big day, April 30th, which by no coincidence is also Queen's Day. A new king, and Queen will be inaugurated (not crowned) – and she will become Princess of the Netherlands. Then slowly the new stamps, coins, and portraits of the royal couple will seep into daily life; then, of course, Prince's Day, the official opening of the parliamentary year, which will be the second official task of the new monarch; and finally the celebration of being a Kingdom for two-hundred years. I think it will be an orange-coloured year.
As Her Majesty said, she won't be disappearing.
But it is most definitely – the end of an era.

News and Views by Takehiko Yagi on the paper "FeO2 and FeOOH under deep lower-mantle conditions and Earth's oxygen–hydrogen cycles" by Hu et al.
Deep inside the earth, seismic observations reveal that three distinct structures make up the boundary between the earth's metallic core and overlying silicate mantle at a depth of about 2,900 kilometers—an area whose composition is key to understanding the evolution and dynamics of our planet. These structures include remnants of subducted plates that originated near the earth's surface, ultralow-velocity zones believed to be enriched in iron, and large dense provinces of unknown composition and mineralogy. A team led by Caltech's Jennifer Jackson, professor of mineral physics has new evidence for the origin of these features that occur at the core-mantle boundary.
Is Carbon Responsible for the Anisotropy in the Earth's Inner Core?
Using a numerical model we include the intrinsic density change that occurs from high to low-spin ferropericlase around 50 GPa [ Sturhahn et. al., 2005 ]. This generates buoyancy similar to a discrete phase change. However, in pressure-temperature space the spin transition occurs over an extended pressure range for warmer material (Figure 1). The temperature broadening effect distributes spin- buoyancy over a large pressure range for warm plumes a nd a tight pressure range for cold slabs. In the deep mantle, spin-buoyancy works with therma l buoyancy and convection is enhanced for both upwellings and downwellings. In the shallow lowe r mantle spin-buoyancy m ildly hinders convection.

I do not know why this islet is called Bonsai Island. Maybe because it is dwarfed during hightide that all you can see are the top of the trees planted there. Or, maybe, they refer to those trees as Bonsai Trees because they are planted on stone and really look tiny from afar. For whatever reason, Bonsai Island is worth visiting when you find your way to Cagbalete. For me, it is the equivalent of Willy's Rock that Boracay offers.

Constitutional and Legal Framework of Women Empowerment in India
Behera, Ashok Kumar (Unknown)
Our Constitution as ultimate law of territory and sufficient of legislations tried to reorganize their surroundings and supply assistance for security and their upliftments. The study is an attempt to review and fall out that there is complete constitutional and other legal arrangement to deal with issues of women empowerment. However, this research paper is limited to some legal provisions and interpretations of Indian Courts only. The jurisprudence of industrialization has confirmed the very important roles as tool of social justice. Equal Remuneration Act 1976 passed with the aim of equal pay for equal work both man and woman and contained that there will be no intolerance against employment of woman and promotes chance to them. Maternity Benefit Act 1961 provides protection to women workers maternity leave, extra leave for child infancy sufficient awareness to their security and strength of woman during pregnancy and lactation. Factories Act 1948 makes comprehensive requirements concerning health, safety and welfare of employment of women. Sec.25 of Beedi and Cigar Workers (Condition and Employment) Act 1966 laid down no woman shall be obligatory to manufacturing premises except between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. and to make sure for safety of woman.Â

Drought displacement and implications for conflict
Posted October 31, 2018 by Andrew M. Linke
Human migration driven by weather variability and environmental change (see, e.g., here, here, and here) has been identified as a possible link between global warming and violent conflict (see, e.g., here, here, and here). Despite academic and public policy discussions about these and similar topics, the relationship between climate change and regional migration within developing countries remains understudied in relation to the risk of violent conflict (although there are notable exceptions).
In addition to tensions among communities related to cultural or religious traditions – in their own right a potential source of hostilities – plausible sources of animosity between host and arrival communities include housing and job market pressures, changing electoral demographics, and access to public goods (e.g. primary schools and other services).
Share of drought-displaced respondents in Kenya who reported host-migrant hostilities. SOURCE: Linke et al. (2018)
The relationship between climate change and regional migration remains understudied
Even if a region's population increases over time and this correlates with the risk of violence or political instability, any reporting of a relationship between the two contemporaneous changes is based on the assumption that conflict is either perpetrated by migrants against hosts or committed by long-term residents of an area against new arrivals. If this assumption is false, violent events could take place between people who have no direct personal experience relocating in response to drought or interacting with people who have.
Valuable recent research reports Indian state's prevailing political alignments vis-à-vis the central government to determine whether the likelihood of riots increases when migrants fleeing drought elsewhere arrive. However, the authors use state level data instead of speaking with migrants directly and treat climatic shocks primarily as a corollary statistical instrument for their main argument about formal institutions and nativist politics.
With colleagues Frank Witmer, John O'Loughlin, Terry McCabe, and Jaroslav Tir, I recently published an article in Environmental Research Letters that uses original Kenyan survey data to avoid problematic assumptions about peoples' behavior and attitudes as part of broader population dynamics. We asked respondents directly about their experiences as they relate to drought or water shortages, temporary and permanent relocation, and conflict. Alongside other innovative migration research, our research speaks directly to one of the many potential mechanisms operating between environmental change and conflict.

In a sample representative of all regions in Kenya (1,400 respondents across 175 enumeration areas), we find that people who report relocating due to drought are at greater odds of experiencing violence than the general population. Furthermore, this risk varies according to the status of their move. Respondents who moved temporarily and those that relocate into the traditional area of other ethnic communities have the greatest risk of victimization.
People who report relocating due to drought are at greater odds of experiencing violence than the general population
We followed this analysis of victimization risk with the more ambitious goal of understanding whether Kenyans were more likely to support the use of violence based upon their experiences. Because of social desirability bias – respondents are highly unlikely to admit to our survey enumerators that they approve of using violence – we used an endorsement experiment methodology (similar to this study), designed specifically to elicit honest responses to sensitive questions. Our respondents who reported moving are no more likely to express latent support for the use of violence than the general population. Interestingly, there is a conditional impact of having relocated due to drought and also being attacked. A combination of these experiences is associated with higher levels of support for the use of violence.
Our findings bring us a step closer to understanding how one of the most plausible mechanisms linking climate change and conflict operates in sub-Saharan Africa. Our general conclusion is that migrants are a vulnerable population and their maltreatment stands to make a troubling problem even worse.
Our work is not without limitations. We were too concerned with misappropriation to inquire about the identity of the attack perpetrators. Such research will only add additional detail to our main finding that migrants endure tenuous, risky, and precarious conditions as they negotiate livelihood uncertainty in the face of climate change.

Sharon found out she had a bulging disc that was causing sciatica down her leg. The pain started fifteen years ago while lifting and moving things at work. Sharon ended up trying physical therapy, chiropractor, and painkillers to find relief, but nothing was working for her and eventually her doctor recommended she have surgery. Sharon decided to try the Illinois Back Institute first before she went under the knife.

Pailadzo Captanian (), was a survivor of the Armenian genocide and an author. She is also credited with inspiring the creation of Rice-A-Roni which is based on her own recipe of Armenian pilaf.

Life

During the Armenian Genocide in 1915, Pailadzo, while pregnant, was forced to march through the Syrian desert to Aleppo.

After the Genocide, she wrote her memoirs, which were published in 1919 in French translation, entitled Memoires d'une deportee armenienne. They are considered an important contribution to Armenian Genocide research, since they were penned shortly after the events. The book contributed to Raphael Lemkin's research and his understanding of the Genocide.

Also in 1919, Mrs. Captanian was reunited with her two other sons whom she had entrusted to a Greek family before the deportations. Afterwards, Pailadzo and her sons moved to the United States, where she worked as a seamstress and sewed draperies for President Franklin D. Roosevelt's home in Hyde Park, New York. In 1922 she published the Armenian original of her memoirs.

After World War II, Pailadzo and her family moved to San Francisco. While in San Francisco, she rented a room to Lois and Tom DeDomenico. Pailadzo taught Lois how to make Armenian pilaf and in 1955 Tom and his brother Vincent, who worked at the Golden Grain Macaroni pasta company founded by their father, came up with the initial recipe for the rice-and-macaroni mixture they called Rice-A-Roni.

Sagging and loose skin is a common occurrence for many people as they get older. The skin continues to lose hydrating properties that are responsible for a firm and hydrated look over time. Aging, as well as major weight loss, can cause skin to droop and sag. If you are experiencing sagging and loose skin, we here at FamWell MD can help. With revolutionary BodyTite body sculpting treatments, you can achieve firm and smooth skin once again.
BodyTite is an advanced and innovative treatment that uses the restorative properties of radio frequency energy to tighten and smooth loose skin. This specialized skin smoothing remedy offers improved skin tightening results over time through the natural function of collagen production and stimulation within tissue. BodyTite delivers the necessary energy beneath the skin with precision and efficiency in order to restore the sculpted and youthful contour of your skin.
Treatments are tailored to each patient through an initial consultation in order to identify and develop a treatment plan designed to target and improve specific skin concerns. The process is performed through the use of a electrode and cannula simultaneously for ultimate RF delivery. During treatment, the specialized BodyTite electrode device is held to the surface of the targeted area. The cannula is then lightly inserted beneath the skin surface through a tiny incision. The advanced device then works to emit and deliver the specialized heat energy beneath the underlying layers of targeted skin. This works to activate tightening and restoration on a cellular level. Collagen production is activated and works to tighten the loose and lax fibers within tissue. Results offer tight and younger-looking skin.
If you are ready to say goodbye to your loose and droopy skin, and hello to a smooth and contoured look, reach out to us here at FamWell MD and speak to one of our caring professionals to learn more about this specialized treatment. Contact us today and schedule your consultation towards firm and younger-looking skin!

Why Future Well Control?
The short answer:
Is all about sustainability.
Future Well Control was founded to meet the current need to advance the drilling and completion industry in a more sustainable and environmental friendly way. Our mission is to develop more reliable, sustainable and resilient solutions for drilling and completion.
For more than 100 years the industry has believed that a kick or influx of hydrocarbon will result in an observed gain at the surface. However, this way of thinking will not solve our desire to detect an influx early and keep control of the primary well barrier.
Simultaneous loss of fluid and hydrocarbon influx, may conceal both the kick and loss of fluid. Likewise, thermal effects and gas solubility may also conceal the kick. Estimating the size of a kick or fluid lost by the change in surface volume does not work.
Make the world safer -
We will change the way the oil, gas and thermal industry monitor and maintain the primary well barrier.
Enthusiasm is important in our
daily business and routine tasks.
When a goal is reached, small or
large, we celebrate with joy.
The key to success is knowledge.
We believe in a lifelong learning
process and continuous improvement.
It is allowed to make mistakes as
long as we learn from them.
We care about each other
and the world around us.
We want to make a difference.
We care about health, security,
safety and the environment.
We firmly believe in being reliable,
truthful and to deliver what we have
promised. However, trust is nothing you are.
Trust is something you may earn
by collaboration and getting
to know each other.

I wrote earlier this year soliciting audio, memories, items, etc. from Penn State's student broadcasting alumni for a growing permanent archive, and more recently on the news of Penn State's "Student Broadcasting" historical marker placed in from of Pattee/Paterno Library just before the start of the fall semester. I also visited the old WDFM headquarters in Sparks Building and made a short video of the Student Broadcasting marker for those who can't visit it in person.
Why do I think Penn State student broadcasting still matters in a world where content can be created and consumed instantaneously? Why does The LION 90.7fm—the heir to WPSC, WDFM, and WPSU—still matter for Penn State students?
What The LION 90.7fm does, and what its predecessors we honor did in years past, is provide a specific place where young people and community members can come together and truly learn from each other. It provides a place where the human voice can be fine tuned, where a Penn Stater can learn how to speak in a way that's compelling and to earn the attention of a potentially indifferent audience. It provides an extracurricular sort of classroom for learning about how to be a positive public citizen along with a few dozen other Penn Staters. And it provides a place for students to share great music, the news and life of the community, and the spirit of each class with anyone who might want to hear. It's a place that reminds us that what we say, and the things we create, matter to a whole community and can change lives, careers, and influence others in all sorts of unexpected and unplanned, positive ways.
We've wanted to support Penn State student broadcasters for a long time. It always amazed me that, despite a history dating to the Senior Gift of the Class of 1912 that enabled the first student radio experiments, there has never been a formal scholarship to support students involved with student broadcasting.
That changed when Mike Walsh, an alumnus of The LION 90.7fm, came to me not long ago and committed $25,000 toward a necessary $50,000 to create the first permanent annual scholarship for Penn State student broadcasters. Thanks to Mike's gift, I signed the paperwork committing the Penn State Media Alumni Interest Group to raise that remaining $25,000 no later than June 30, 2019. I've been confident that alumni will step up with contributions of all sizes to help us reach this goal, and I'm writing now to ask if you'll be one who steps up and makes a gift before the end of this year.
We've already raised ~$7,500 of the remaining $25,000, and we're aiming to raise a final ~$2,000 by December 31st. Next year, we're aiming to raise ~$8,500. That would leave ~$7,500 to raise in 2019 and ensure we reach our $50,000 goal to make this scholarship permanent.
Even better, Penn State will double match the annual scholarship available to members of The LION 90.7fm, which means that by helping us reach this $50,000 goal, an annual ~$7,200 in scholarship assistance will be available for Penn State student broadcasters going forward, every year.
I only write to appeal for gifts like this once per year, and now is that time for this year. Will you make a gift today (or later this month) to help us raise our remaining $2,000 goal before December 31st?
Make a one time, tax deductible gift here, or consider signing up as a recurring scholarship donor directly through Penn State.
As alums of WPSC, WDFM, WPSU, WKPS, or any of the old residence hall stations, I think we have some duty to the students of today who've followed in our footsteps to make life better for them than it was for us. To make Penn State just a little bit better by building up student broadcasters and making it better than we found it.
That's ultimately what I'm asking you to consider, if you're in a position to make a gift.


My name is Victor Ragusila. I am currently a PhD student at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS), working on legged robots and how to achieve running motion with them. Before that i had graduated from UofT, Engineering Science division. I have also experience working in R&D, having completed a year at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC), working on a variety of prototype robots.
I feel it is important however to be involved in university clubs and teams. While an undergraduate student, i started a robotics team on campus, building underwater autonomous vehicles. Later, during my graduate studies, I worked on the team that flew the first successful human powered ornithopter, making news around the world. After that projectachieved its goal, together with some of the members of that team, I started the University of Toronto Human Powered Vehicle Design Team (UofT HPVDT).
The goal of the HPVDT is to promote, research and build human powered vehicle. We compete each year in the ASME Human Powered Vehicle Competition with a new high speed bicycle. In 2011, only our second year of participating, we achieved first place overall at this competition. The vehicle is able to negotiate obstacles, speed bumps and carry groceries. It is however not an average bicycle, as it has a maximum speed well in excess of 100km/h. We are preparing to find out exactly how fast it can go, by competing in the 2011 World Human Powered Vehicle Speed challenge in Nevada. On a 6 mile strip of flat, straight road, the fastest vehicles around the world try to beat the 132km/h world record. Our last year entry set the collegiate record at 102km/h, and this year's bike is much faster.
The trip to Nevada is from Sept 10 to Sept 18. I am looking for people and companies interested in helping us get there, by sponsoring us with the funds needed for air tickets and rental car. We can achieve good media exposure for any company interested. An article appeared in the Toronto Star on august 26th about our team. http://www.thestar.com/news/article/1045060--u-of-t-engineers-design-bicycle-that-can-top-100-km-h.
We are also working to have a reporter from the Star present at the competition in Nevada, as well as a crew from Discovery Channel. Beside media exposure, we participate in many campus activities, such as club fairs, presentations, etc.

We've talked about the Panerai and Zenith special edition watches being held in Bermuda for the 35th annual America's cup match. Now omega is launching two new limited-edition Omega replica watches to support the New Zealand emirates team (ETNZ). If ETNZ wins the qualifiers and then the semi-finals, the team could face the defending champion, the American oracle.
To advance they have to beat Land Rover BAR (backed by Zenith), but with the qualifying campaign barely underway, anything can happen. The field is already open, and other challengers are still running, including Artemis Racing of Sweden, Groupama Team of France and SoftBank Team of Japan. As a special partner and official timekeeper for ETNZ, Omega replica watches swiss movement has created a pair of their own watches and hopes to do a good presentation in Bermuda.
According to Omega, the chronometers are all made with "the DNA of the New Zealand chiefs." The special edition Speedmaster created for the team could be a good opportunity to do something really cool, rather than its presence. Frankenstein.With fierce competition for Zenith and Panerai, Omega brought their own watches to the table. The Speedmaster x-33 Regatta ETNZ limited edition is worn by crew on board. While the watch's combination of analog and digital features is practical, it seems to be a detriment to Speedmaster's timeless design. The timings include necessary boat racing features to track the critical five-minute countdown at the start of each race. Looking under the sail of the cheap fake Omega watches, we can see omega Calibre 5620 quartz multi-function chronograph movements. Fast, due to production limit of 2,017 pieces.


BANGKOK — Thailand's prime minister dissolved the government and called for new elections Monday, but that did little to appease the more than 150,000 people who took to the streets in the capital, demanding she resign.
As demonstrators began converging again on the seat of the Thai government's power, a conciliatory Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra announced she would ask the crown to consent to dissolve parliament and hold snap elections.
In a brief, nationally televised address, the prime minister acknowledged widespread opposition to her government, emphasizing authorities do not want to see any further "loss of life."
But Yingluck says her cabinet will remain intact, albeit with limited powers, and she is staying on as caretaker prime minister. Her party says she will stand as a candidate in the new election to be held by February 2.
That did little to appease protesters whose leaders demanded she immediately step down.
Demonstrator Watcharapon Wuou was among those marching to the government center after Yingluck's announcement.
He says the protestors are not satisfied with the dissolution of the parliament and the "prime minister must resign or get out of the country."
The opposition has repeatedly rejected the idea of new elections, instead saying they want to change the country's political system.
Its most vocal leader, a former deputy prime minister, has demanded the elected government be replaced by an appointed but vaguely defined "people's council."
The roots of Thailand's political instability go back years to when Yingluck's brother, the billionaire tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra was prime minister. Although he lives in exile to avoid prison for corruption charges, the parties he has backed have won every national election since 2001, largely from the support of rural and working-class voters.
Observers have deemed the elections free and fair, but his opponents, mainly the capital's middle class and royalist elite, contend Thaksin and his family buy their way to power and enrich themselves while in office.
Protester Santhanee Methaneethom says that is why new elections will not work.
"It is the time that the Thai country should be clean from corruption. So that's why the people are all here," said Santhanee Methaneethom.
The latest round of demonstrations began over an amnesty bill introduced by the ruling party that would have cleared the way for Thaksin to return home. The bill was defeated, but sparked mostly peaceful protests that have lasted weeks.
Domestic media reports say leaders of Thailand's powerful military are growing increasingly displeased. The generals have intervened 18 times since 1932, when absolute monarchy rule ended. And despite the assurances of military leaders that this latest crisis will not lead to another coup, few Thais rule that out as a possibility.

Vintage Transports, photos by Friends & Guests
» INDEX PAGE «
On a regular basis people sent me photos, to share their enthusiasm for vintage airliners or to illustrate a question. These photos have been lingering in a scrapbook or a discarded box somewhere and/or probably wouldn't find their way to Online-use or publication.
To prevent them from getting lost, with permission of the sender, I would like to share them on this page.
Photos already online (personal websites, airliners.net, jetphotos.net, etc) are not meant to be included here.
Roger Soupart wrote me this in Oct.2008:
"On saturday 28Sep08 I went to Overboelare/Geraardsbergen ( which is near Brussels,Belgium), where this DC-4 is.
It is fast deteriorating.
Since my last visit in in 2000 it has become hard to photograph, because the small trees have become quite big! So I had to use a 17 mm lens on my fullframe DLSR. But it shows the sad condition of the wing's underside.
This DC-4 is rarely photographed or reported on, which I think is quite odd."
"For photography it is best to go here during the afternoon, we were a little too early (13:00)".
N2894C (c/n 10352) was impounded at Brussels in 1967, with the fake registration N2894C (ex N90443). It served as a clubhouse for the gliding club at Overboelare.
Note that 'the full story' is told in an article by Fernand Van de Plas, "The Smugglers Skymaster", in the no. 61 issue of Propliner magazine (Winter 1994), pages 14-16.
The article features 8 photographs.
Paul J. Hooper sent me this 1972 image of this Douglas DC-4
A posting on Facebook (Jan.2020) provided additional details ¬
Location info (& photos) can be found on www.spottingmode.com which shows it current until Dec.2019
One Ronald van der Valk provided the following (possibly taken from another source, no mention of this):
"The Magical Mystery Plane.
This C-54 Skymaster was built as USAAF C-54A-15DC hull number 83, c/n 10352 and USAAF serial number 42-72247, It was delivered on 17 July 1944, making it an original war bird.
In December 1946, the aircraft was sold to American Airlines, where she served as N90443 "Flagship Texas'. From June 1950, she served Eastern Airlines until 1955, when she was sold to Aero Leases Inc, a broker in aviation. In 1958 she began flying for Miami Airlines, flying passengers and cargo around Florida until 1961, when she was leased by Trans Atlantic Airlines (TAA).
TAA was a bit of a shady outfit. While registered in the US, it used a postal address in Frankfurt, Germany and its operational base was located at London Gatwick, UK. From Gatwick and other British airports, she began flying charter flights to many cities around the Mediterranean Sea. To impress customers, the airline had styled the aircraft's paintwork to resemble a DC-6.
After the summer season and the end of summer charter work, founder and president Daniel Walcott started flying cargo and managed to contract freight work between India and Afghanistan. Sometime in the sixties, he ended up in an Indian prison for smuggling ammunition in a Piper Apache, but he made bail and was released. By tricking Indian authorities he was able to smuggle fuel in his Apache and fled to Pakistan!
He was later wanted by Interpol for illegally running an airline, for smuggling gold, diamonds, wristwatches, weapons, etc. And ultimately he was also wanted for espionage on behalf of Israel by photographing Lebanese military installation...
Things get even more confusing and shady in 1963.
Skymaster N90443 was photographed in its TAA livery at Frankfurt am Main on 04Apr63. While this seems to be quite normal, the Air Britain DC-4 Monograph states that this very C-54 was in fact impounded by Swiss authorities at Basle in 1962 due to irregularities about payment of certain fees, even though the aircraft was already leased (on paper) by Panama Airways and carrying a Panamese registration.
The story starts in June 1963, when this Transatlantic Airlines DC-4 (C-54) arrived at Basle airport and became impounded after landing.
The Magazin 'Propliner' reports in its No.59 and No.61 editions that the C-54 during its enforced stay at Basle was allowed to have her engines run up regularly, just to stay 'alive'. Then, on 14 June 1963, the plane was to have another run-up. Early morning 04:00 AM, the crew boarded the aircraft and disappeared in the rain clouds, without any radio contact and not using the position lights to an unknown destination, she followed a departing BEA Comet to the runway and departed illegally!
After a European-wide search for the stolen aircraft, a trace led to Milan (Italy) a few days later, where a DC-4 was seen the day after Skymaster N90443 had disappeared from Basle. There, the crew "re-arranged" the registration by over painting it with the faked registration N2849C and then disappeared with this aircraft again – all, without being prevented by airport authorities or even police.
A few days after the incident at Milan, the DC-4 was found again: at Brussels.
After arrival at Brussels the crew left unseen and she was impounded by the authorities.
The pilot who had stolen her was arrested at Paris on 13Feb64 and transferred to the Swiss authorities the same day.
For years Skymaster N90443 stood idle on the north (military) side of the airfield, where she was slowly stripped for spares by the Belgian Air Force, who operated a few C-54A's of their own.
In May 1967, she was moved to Geraardsbergen to become a bar. This came to nothing and in May 1971 she was acquired by Mr. Coessens and placed a little further down the road at Overboelare Airfield, to be used as a club house for the local glider club.
Unfortunately, Skymaster N90443 is deteriorating fast. The Coessens family is not willing to spend money conserving her anymore and it shows. It is however still possible to see her at the airfield and the airfield maintainer is happy to show you around."

I thought you would be interested in these pictures I took last month when I visited Coulson Air Tankers, the owners and operators of the two Martin Mars aircraft. Unfortunately only the Phillipine Mars was there as the Hawaii Mars was still in California where it has seen a lot of work this fire season.
The Phillipine Mars is undergoing heavy maintenance and I don't think it has flown this year. I was interested to see an open drop door so I am including a shot of it.
As well, I was very impressed that they have rescued that nose section which I saw many years ago parked in the bush with trees and weeds growing around and through it. Now it has been made into a very interesting display item and the information plate which is part of the display gives details on all the Mars aircraft which were built. They welcome visitors to the facility in the summer, even have tours and a gift shop. If planning to go outside those times, it is very difficult to access the base as I found out...
I wonder how many more years these behemoths will still be able to fly..............

Water bombers grounded by U.S. red tape
Sandra McCulloch, Times Colonist
Published: Friday, October 17, 2008
The Martin Mars water bomber based in Port Alberni was poised to assist in fighting raging wildfires near Los Angeles last week but instead got mired in bureaucracy, said the aircraft's owner yesterday.
Hawaii Mars has been in California since early July on a contract with the state. The aircraft landed on Lake Elsinore on Saturday, located 20 minutes from Los Angeles, after flying from its previous base at Lake Oroville in central California.
Before that, the Mars was at Lake Shasta where it worked at extinguishing numerous wildfires sparked by a lightning storm in June.
But despite its unique ability of dropping fire-suppressing foam on structures without causing damage, Hawaii Mars never got off the water last week to help with the fires near Los Angeles.
"We had our first taste of the bureaucracy of the infrastructure down there," said Wayne Coulson, owner of Coulson Flying Tankers of Port Alberni.
Fighting wildfires is an expensive proposition in California, last year costing the state $1 billion.
Last year, Hawaii Mars helped douse fires in San Diego county through its partnership with the state's forestry department. It dropped 163,000 litres of fire-suppressing gel on three fires there.
Last week's fires were all in Los Angeles county, and required a new set of negotiations for the Martin Mars to operate.
"The Mars was available, but trying to figure out how to contract it [to the county] was a major event," said Coulson. "We've never worked with L.A. county before and there's a whole group of different people and infrastructure."
However, the fire situation is under control partly due to the fact that the Santa Ana winds which normally fan wildfires were not as strong as they have been in other years.
"They normally last up to a week and this was only a short burst of a couple days," Coulson said.
Despite the lack of activity, the community around Lake Elsinore has welcomed the Martin Mars and its crew to the area off the Interstate 5 between Los Angeles and San Diego.
Hawaii Mars will return to its base at Sproat Lake in a few weeks and will remain here for the winter to undergo repairs and maintenance, Coulson said.
"We are starting to think about next year and we've got maintenance to do on the aircraft," he said.
It will take time to convince California's decision makers that the Martin Mars is safe to use on neighbourhoods threatened by wildfires, he said.
It is hoped talks over the winter make for smoother operation in California during next summer's fire season.
"We're working with everybody at all sorts of different levels" Coulson said.

Bond (Daniel Craig) and Camille arrive at an airfield in Bolivia. 'Quantum Of Solace' (2008 United Artists)
It was interesting to see the DC-3 appear in the 2008 James Bond movie 'Quantum of Solace", as I had seen this Douglas DC-3 parked at Lake Elsinore,CA last may. Skip Evans is the owner and he flew this plane for the movie.
However, it wasn't the only DC-3 used in this movie!
On the Classic-Propliner forum the following information was posted:
"From a pilot pal of mine at Opa Locka,FL DC-3 N12BA was used."
"That is Frank Moss' DC-3. Frank told me about the trip when I spoke with him by phone a few weeks ago."
"Mr. Evans' DC-3 was used for location filming in Baja California. Frank's was used for location filming in Panama and Chile. Frank's trip occurred in March of this year."

At the offices of ENSA, I was welcomed by a friendly uniformed director who told me that Aerotaxi no longer existed, and that all remaining aircraft had been transferred to Aerocarribean. The two DC-3 aircraft were in the process of being scrapped and efforts to place one of them at the aviation museum had failed.
Immediately after receiving this disappointing news, I took a taxi to the outskirts of Havana where the "Museo del Aire" is located. Imagine my frame of mind when I faced a sign 'closed for repairs' on the gate of the museum!
Another disappointment!
Fortunately, the taxi driver and I were able to convince a lady guard inside the compound to allow this European aviation fan into the museum for about 30 minutes. The lady charged the normal ticket price and on top she received a handsome token of appreciation..
This Ilyushin IL-14 CU-T825 is a former Presidential airplane. The construction number is not known.
The Museo del Aire is located at Avenida 212 y La Coronela, Cubanacan, Havana.

Heinz Rentmeister sent me this 1978 photo of N711TD, aftre having seen and read my webpage dedicated to se Sep.2008 visit to the air museum near Rimini... There is a DC-3 on display, registered N242AG with in the cockpit a marker as being N711TD; this complies with the information in various sources.
BUT THE DOORS ARE DIFFERENT !!
More photos and info on Museo dell'Aviazione - Sep.2008
This DC-3/R4D-5 c/n 12679 was sold in 1963 and operated by various parties; at some point it was reregistered N711TD, which is the tailnumber that is marked inside the cockpit (see photo).
It was ferried to Italy with the intention to reregister it as I-COFR and operate freight (fish) between Italy and Yugoslavia. But its Certificate of Airworthiness was denied and at some point it was purchased by the museum.
Paul Gross wrote me in Sep.2008, returning from a visit to Alaska this summer; the weather did not cooperate too well (heavy overcast and/or rain during 10 of the 12 days..) but Alaska weather can do that to you. But Paul did return with excellent photographic results and here are some to share!

Lee Holden noticed a question on my Questions & Answers page, about DC-6 EC-AVA once used as a restaurant at Palma de Mallorca... He wrote:	"I took a couple of photos of Douglas DC-6 EC-AVA c/n 43118 in 1998. And as far as I know it is still there!
But as you can see it is not in very good health...
Its location is just past Magaluf; I believe there is a waterpark in Magaluf now, across from a go-cart track and as you continue to the top of the road you turn left, head down the road a couple of hundred yards and its on the right hand side.
It is located at the side of a bowling green, hence the titles on the aircraft.
It does appear to have been used as a restaurant at some time, due to it having vents.
Be warned though: wear long trousers as I had shorts on and got terribly bitten by mosquitos!"

Alan Miller wrote me in Sep.2008: "I found these slides and photos in my Dad's attic while cleaning out some old boxes. Hope they are of good enough quality for you to use.
The first one is of a DC-6 at Miami's Corrosion Corner."
The forth was taken at CSG. I rode this a/c to ATL.
I am not sure where the last one was taken, but I think it was at the southwest corner of MIA.
N14436 is a Douglas DC-6B and was probably operated (or had been) for a company called Kimex when this photo was taken.
N14436 (cn 45067/709) was sold to the Indiasa Aviation Corp and leased to Virgin Islands International Airways in 1980. It was impounded in Colombia one year later and transferred to the Colombian Air Force. There is one image on Airliners.net (B&W, 1978).
This DC-6B was delivered to Western Air Lines in 1956 (N93116) and sold in 1962 to Japan Air Lines (JA6208). In June 1968 it was bought by Onyx Corporation, reregistered PH-TRK and briefly flown by the Dutch company Transavia. The next year it was registered TF-FRB for Fragtflug who reregistered it again in Dec.1969 to TF-OAB.
Tailnumber N14436 was assigned for Boreas Corporation when they bought it Feb72; the next year Kimex bought it from them.
Indiasa Aviation Corp. bought N14436 in Sep78 and reregistered it as N120AC on 12Jan79. Virgin islands Int'l Airways leased it in 1980, but the next year it was impounded in Colombia.
The Colombian authorities (Air Force) made use of it and registered it as FAC-902; it crashed near Letica, Amazona on 24Jul85, see Aviaton safety Network Because of a strike among Avianca pilots, Air Force transport planes were used on domestic services. The aircraft was flying in bad weather (rainstorm) when a no. 3 engine fire caused the plane to crash into the jungle.

OB-R-1005 Aeronaves del Peru is on its way to runway 9R at Miami int'l (KMIA).
An excellent website to read up on the individual histories of the CL-44 is www.cl44.com This website offers on c/n 6 details when it was delivered to the RCAF, designated CC-106 Yukon, in 1961, was sold to AER - Aerotransportes Entre Rios in 1972 (LV-JZR), wento onto Aeronaves del Peru that same year who stored it ten years later, in 1982. It was sold on 01Nov82 to Vic Air Cargo (9Q-CKQ), which was renamed Virunga Air Cargo two years later but by then this CL-44 may have already outlived its usefulness and been stored.
It has probably been scrapped at Kinshasa.
The Martin 404 (also written as 4-0-4) of Southeast is at the gates at MIA.
A truly excellent book to read on the Martin 202 & 404 is "The MartinLiners" by Gary L. Killion (Airways Int'l , 1997); it offers on Southeast Airlines:
'formed in 1958 as Cat Cay Airlines and started charter operations the following year. After it had changed its name, the company moved into scheduled intrastate service and, early in the 1970s, used ex/ Piedmont 404s with 44-passenger interiors for service between Miami, Key West, Marathon, Opa Locka and Freeport-Bahamas. The four 202As acquired earlier from Modern Air Transport were apparently used only for charter operations as all flight schedules referred to the 404s. Operations were suspended because of financial difficulties in 1976 and the 404s were sold to PBA. The company was subsequently revived and acquired by MCA Leasing but ceased all activity in 1981.'
Martin 404s operated by Southeast were listed as: N93205 (c/n 14075) - N93206 (14076) - N93208 (14078, for spares use) - N93212 (14082) - N40407 (14107) - N40413 (14117) - N40424 (14130) - N40425 (14131) - N67097 (14145, for spares use).
Of this Martin 404 Alan wrote: "This one was taken at Columbus Metropolitan Airport (KCSG); I rode this a/c to Atlanta (KATL)."
Gary Kilion wrote in his book "The MartinLiners" about Southern Airways (of Atlanta, Georgia):
'Local Service airline Southern Airways acquired a fleet of ex-Eastern 404s and introduced the type in service on 29Oct61 on Atlanta-Dothan-Eglin AFB, Atlanta-Huntsville-Muscle Shoals & Atlanta-Columbus-Dothan-Panama City routes, with the class name Aristocrat.
Southern was the last major US scheduled airline operating 404s (or any other reciprocating engine-powered transport for that matter) when N144S made Southern's last 404 flight on 30Apr78. The former Federated Department Stores executive 404 was only owned for one day in what appears to be a paper transaction for its sale from Lockheed Aircraft to Piedmont.' N141S (c/n 14156) - N142S (14157) - N143S (14237) - N144S (14150) - N145S (14142) - N146S (14223) - N147S (14161) - N148S (14160) - N149S (14141) - N251S (14243) - N252S (14154) - N253S (14158) - N254S (14159) - N255S (14246) - N256S (14236) - N257S (14110) - N258S (14232) - N259S (14233).

Alan wrote on this unidentified Martin 404: "I am not sure where this one was taken, but I think it was at the southwest corner of MIA..."
Michael Prophet may have identified this 4-0-4 when he wrote: "The red/orange cheatline and engine cowling reminds me of an ADSA Martin 404... Did they have only one?
See Mr Vandervord's 1980 photo on www.airliners.net"
{Mr Kilion's book state that ADSA flew 2 M404's: HI-285 (c/n 14157) and HI-334 (c/n 14241); 'using the name Dominair, ADSA flew 2 M404's in scheduled services. ADSA was the last operator to use the 404 in international scheduled (albeit often unpredictable) services'.
A few words from Wikipedia on the Martin 4-0-4:
"First deliveries in 1951 were made to Eastern Air Lines (who had ordered 60) and Trans World Airlines (who had ordered 40). The only other new aircraft of the production line were delivered to the United States Coast Guard who had ordered two as executive transports with the designation RM-1G later changed to RM-1 and then in 1962 to VC-3A. In 1969 they were transferred to the United States Navy and they had both been withdrawn from use by 1970. A total of 103 aircraft were built at the Glenn L. Martin factory in Baltimore.
The last airworthy 4-0-4 was ferried to the Planes of Fame Museum in February 2008, where it is on display together with a Martin 2-0-2."
I visited the Planes of Fame Museum at Valle,Arizona; see MY REPORT.
Douglas C-47A N473DC, better known as "Drag-em-Oot", is seen in splendid form dropping paratroopers over the Ginkelse Heath ('Ginkelse Heide') in the Netherlands, in memory of 'Operation Market Garden' during WW2.

It is excellent to see an important party in the aviation- and airline industry, Lufthansa, going through such an effort to keep the aviation history and -heritage alive... And heart-warming to see enthusiasts such as Dietmar go through such great lengths to capture the initiative through photography and 'spread the word', so to speak.
UPDATE 26Jan2019:
'In an effort to reduce expenses, Lufthansa has announced that they are withdrawing their financial support to their foundation, the Deutsche Lufthansa Berlin-Stiftung. The foundation has been operating the Junkers Ju 52/3m D-CDLH among other aircraft since 1986 and offered paying recreational flights in Germany and Europe. The aircraft is the oldest airworthy Ju 52 in the world and carries the historical Lufthansa colours of D-AQUI in 1936.
Without their prime sponsor the days of 'D-AQUI' may be numbered..
The tragic accident of Ju-Air's Ju 52 in August 2018 was reportedly not a factor in the decision.'

A Hazleton man arrested after a purse-snatching incident in Mahoning Township was sentenced yesterday to 2 1/2 to five years in state prison.
Robert Snyder, 39, who submitted an autobiography of more than 40 pages to Carbon County Court Judge John P. Lavelle, was sentenced to concurrent sentences of 2 1/2 to five years on a robbery charge and one to two years on a charge of recklessly endangering another person.
Snyder admitted taking the purse of Bertha Konstas on Dec. 1 while she was putting groceries into the trunk of her car which was parked at the Carbon Plaza, Lehighton R.6.
Konstas said the purse was over her shoulder and Snyder grabbed it, throwing her to the ground.
She said she suffered a broken rib, was in pain for five to six weeks, and was under a doctor's care until March.
The recklessly endangering charge stems from an incident on Dec. 2 in which Snyder hit a Mahoning Township police car while involved in a high-speed chase with Township Police Chief David Ebbert.
Ebbert said that the chase extended through Mahoning Valley and into Lehighton, and that Snydersmashed through one roadblock and ran around two others.
Snyder testified that he had been addicted to opiates because he was severely burned several years ago.
Lavelle ordered that Snyder make restitution to Konstas for $214, her out- of-pocket loss, and to the Mahoning Township police for the expenses not covered by insurance for damage to the police car. Snyder received credit for time served in the county prison since Dec. 2.
- A Lansford man who severely beat a borough hotel owner with a tire iron during a burglary of the man's room was sentenced to 23 to 46 months in county prison.
David Kovich, 30, of 232 W. Kline Ave., beat Anthony Renzo, the owner of the Lansford Hotel, when Renzo found the defendant attempting to break into a safe in Renzo's room on the second floor of the hotel.
Renzo testified he was tending bar in the downstairs area of the hotel and that he went upstairs for change. He said someone grabbed him and began hitting him on the head, and that he received 16 stitches as a result of the beating.
Kovich, who was described as a "Jekyll and Hyde" personality by his attorney, Bruce Miller, admitted having a serious alcohol problem.
"I thought I had it beat, but I also thought I was the one exception and that I could have one drink and it wouldn't matter," he told the court. "I agree . . . alcohol has ruined my life."
Lavelle said he would give Kovich "one last chance" at a county sentence, and sentenced him to concurrent sentences of 23 to 46 months on the burglary charge and 11 to 22 months on the assault charge. The judge ordered that $450 restitution be made to Renzo for expenses incurred because of his injuries, and gave Kovich credit for 120 days served on the charges.
- A Lehighton man charged with criminal trespass was sentenced to eight to 16 months in county prison.
George P. Hosier, 24, was apprehended Dec. 19 after an employee at the 7- Eleven store in Lehighton claimed he saw him on his knees in front of a cabinet in a private office at the store.
Hosier claimed he was looking for a rest room. Nothing was taken or damaged in the incident.
- An Ocean City, Md., man who formerly lived in the Lehighton area was sentenced to three to 12 months in county prison for stealing and forging a check.
Kevin B. Nothstein, 22, cashed a $104 check belonging to Deborah Barclay at the Home Savings and Loan in the Carbon Plaza, Lehighton R.6.
Mahoning Township Police said the woman lived in Nothstein's apartment before him, and that the check mistakenly came with his mail. He forged her name, and then endorsed it.
Lavelle denied probation for Nothstein because of an extensive criminal record, but said he would consider work release if Nothstein complies with the prison's stipulations.
- A Lehighton man was given a mandatory 48 hour to 30 day sentence on a driving under the influence of alcohol charge, and fined on several summary offenses.
Nathan R. Balogach, 31, of 515 Cypress St., was arrested on Oct. 26 for DUI after he was observed driving the wrong way on a one-way street in Weissport. He refused a breathalyzer test.
He was fined $200 for driving while his license was suspended and $25 for driving the wrong way on a one-way street.
In another incident, Balogach was involved in an accident on Nov. 23 on North Eighth Street, Lehighton, in which several parked vehicles were struck. He again refused a breathalyzer test, but was fined another $200 for driving while under suspension.
Lavelle also fined Balogach $300 on the DUI charge and suspended his license for another year for refusing the breath tests. The judge ordered the defendant to sell any vehicles he owns in order to remove the temptation to drive.
- A Lehighton man charged with defrauding the state Welfare Department was placed on probation for one year.
Harry Shiffert, 44, of 123 South St., was charged with collecting welfare from Aug. 1984 through May 1985 while he was employed at Brookhaven Home, Chester County.
A Welfare Department representative said Shiffert collected $927 in cash and food stamps during that period.
Lavelle ordered Shiffert to make restitution and remain employed.
