Ancestral roots of a squadron
In 1923, it was decided to permanently attach aircraft from the RAF to the aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy. Previously, aircraft from RAF squadrons had been used at sea – for example, in 1922 Gloster Nightjars of 203 Squadron were embarked on HMS Argus and were shipped to the Dardanelles during the Chanak Crisis. So it was that in April, 402 (Fleet Fighter) Flight was formed at RAF Netheravon, three months later 404 (Fleet Fighter) Flight was established. These were merged in 1933 to form 800 Naval Air Squadron.
Anyway, when the Fleet Fighter Flights were mustered some Gloster Nightjars were assigned to the embryonic marine units. They were very soon replaced with the Parnall Plover and the rather better and more numerous Fairey Flycatcher. But the Nightjar served briefly under the colours of 404 (Fleet Fighter) Flight, so it must be made.
There was a reluctance on my part to do it. First, the only kit of the Nightjar is the vanishingly rare Blue Rider edition from the late 1980s. Second, that kit is a vac form, and I have never done one of those. However, eventually I bit the proverbial bullet and found a Gloster Nighthawk (from which the Nightjar evolved) also from Blue Rider.
The kit itself is, let's say, basic. Vacform is made by heating a sheet of rigid polystyrene (the stuff injection moulded kits are made from) then placing the pliable material over a mould and pulling it into place using a vacuum. The kit parts stand out in relief. More detailed parts, such as the engine, wheels and propeller, are cast in white metal and a few bits etched in brass.
The first issue is cutting the parts from the plastic sheet. This requires much attention. If you just cut around the edges, you also have an extra thickness of plastic left on the part, so you have to sand everything down to the right thickness. This is OK on the fuselage, but on the tailplane it is a pain and needs very careful work.
Too much and you lose part of the tail, too little and it doesn't look thin enough. All the cockpit parts are here too – including the tiny instrument panel and the seat base. The seat back is on the photo etch, as its the control column.
The two halves of the fuselage are joined together using little bits of plastic sheet as guides. Jut a little trick I picked up on t'internet!
Plenty of tape to hold it in place and beads of normal polystyrene cement and the fuselage is built. There is a bit of filling and sanding needed, but really not as much as I had imagined.
The wings come out of the sheet flat, but in reality they had a slight dihedral.
The cure was to clamp them in this home-made jig, saw the joint where the dihedral starts (outboard of the central fuel tank) then apply more poly cement. This softens the joint first, allowing the wings to straighten, but eventually sets the joint at the right angle.
The last piece of the puzzle was to replace then engine and propeller. The kit comes as the Nighthawk VI with a 14-cylinder Armstrong-Siddeley Jaguar II radial engine. This drives a big prop, way too big for the Nightjar. The latter used a 9-cylinder Bentley BR.2 rotary engine – about half the size of the Jaguar – with a more modest propeller.
Finding this proved a bit of an issue, until I came across the excellent Joe's Models web site in the USA. Joe has collected a huge array of out-of-production bits made by companies such as Aeroclub that have sadly gone to the wall. A few emails back and forth and a lovely Bentley BR.2 engine and sensible propeller arrived in the post. I also got Joe to send me a couple of Vickers guns to add as armament, the kit having no weapons. $20 the lot including postage. Cheers, Joe!
With the engine in place I could attach the photo etch undercarriage pieces and the cast wheels. Coming together now, especially with some decals applied. I always feel this starts to bring a 'plane to life…
The next bit was another problem. Fitting the upper wing. The kit doesn't include the struts. The instructions, an exercise in brevity, simply says "Cut strut lengths from Contrail strut." OK, will do. Where do I get Contrail strut? Nowhere, it appears, as they also disappeared a while back. But there is a company called Evergreen that makes polystyrene sheet, rods, tubing and so on and that are easy to source on eBay. Bits of 0.5mm x 1.5mm strip do the job. Of course, the Nightjar needs eight struts. Oh, you also need some smaller strips to do the cabane struts that connect the fuselage to the upper wing.
Then we start on the rigging. All of it. Essentially a cross of wires in each empty bay – 12 in total. And the control lines.
But then, before you know it and having taken only the three weeks, it is done.

Folding a Seafire
You'd have thought that, being a photographer reasonably competent with things digital that I would have learnt by now. You take pictures, you put them on your system and back them up. I neglected to do step 2 from the above, so have no production photos from this build. Which is a pity, because it is a beauty.
The Seafire FR.47 was the last in the line of navalised Spitfires. It wasn't the first to have folding wings, that started with the Mk.III and continued with the Mk.XV and Mk.XVII. The FR.47 was the only Seafire to have powered wing folding, previously the wings were folded manually by a reasonably large crew.
The other thing about this build was the conversion to an 'open engine', with the covers off as if it were being serviced. The conversion is by CMR and comprises the RR Griffon engine, mountings, cover panels and bulkhead. I also got a set of ladders from Brengun.
The wing fold was made by cutting along the relevant lines on the kit and blanking off the ends with bits taken from a surplus Fairey Fulmar wing fold photo etch set and sanded to size. The open side door was part of the photo etch that came with the kit.
So that is pretty much all I can tell you. I wish I could find the photos, I really do, as they were quite instructive. Ah well.
So, there is just one more kit to go. One more model to complete the entire project. The first aircraft to carry the colours of 800NAS or its predecessors, the Gloster Nightjar. And it is the first vac form kit I've ever made…

2 into 1 goes twice…
Some considerable time ago I made a kit of the Buccaneer S.1 made by Airfix some time in the 1970s. It was, in essence, a toy aeroplane. I don't mean any disrespect to Airfix in this, it was of its day and fit the market at the time. But for serious modelling it is still a bit off. Mind you, if you want a kit of the NA.39 prototype before the modifications that turned it into the Buccaneer, well there are precious few options.
So, wanting to do a decent S.1 Buccaneer I got hold of a resin kit. I really don't like resin kits. This one came with a chunk of rear fuselage broken off and neither direct contact with the manufacturer or the intercession of the retailer provided a replacement. So I was stuck with the prospect of a biggish repair job.
But then, I heard that the enterprising people at Aerocraft Models make a conversion kit, allowing an S.1 to be made from the excellent Airfix Buccaneer S.2. So, I ordered it, actually I ordered two as I wanted a wing folded S.1 as well as one "ready to fly", but kept the resin kit for some useful details…
The aircraft kit comes in two packages. One has the smaller intakes and a bit of the leading edge of the wing with an extra cooling vent. It also includes the front compressor blades of the Gyron Junior engines and two supporting pieces as we are going to hack off a chunk of fuselage.
The second contains smaller exhaust plates for the back end and smoother airbrake skins Options for open or closed airbrakes). The S.2 gained quite a few lumps and bumps and extra panels, so these bring it back to the original spec.
For the open canopy, wing-folded version, I got a cockpit detail set from Eduard. This includes all kinds of bits and pieces , but frankly some of them are just potty. I mean, am I really going to put in throttle levers at this size that I can't see when the kit is on my shelf. Am I? Well, am I???
Anyway, I used the instrument panels and controls from the Eduard set but used the ejection seats and straps from the resin kit as they seemed much better. The office looks quite good as a result.
So, on to the actual build. The big bit is cutting out the existing inlets and leading edge and putting in the new one.
It is just a case of marking it out and hacking away with a small saw. The Aircraft web site has full instructions on all this and was very useful.
The gaping sides left are where the two support slabs go, they are marked "P" and "S" as they have a slight curve to them to follow the body shape so are not interchangeable side to side.
The slabs do create a really useful space in which to stuff weights the keep the model nose-heavy. This is because I want the nose used for something else, at least on the wing-folded model. You'll also notice there has been some sanding around the intake and one of the inspection panels under the cockpit.
It is also necessary to cut the intake compressors off from one of the internal support pieces as they don't fit inside the new inlets.
So, with all that done you can insert the new intakes. I'm not terribly good at all this modification lark, I will be honest, so my ones probably have needed much more filler that one made by a competent modeller. But they do fit and, with sanding, they look pretty bloody good I think.
The other modification requiring a bit of a hack is the smaller exhaust plates needed by the Gyron Junior. These are quite straightforward to insert.
The new airbrakes t the tail are a simple swap out for the kit parts and fit absolutely like a glove.
So, on to the next stage. I mentioned I kept a few other resin bits for extra messing about. Well, the main one was that the resin kit had a folding nosecone option. The Buccaneer was designed to fit British aircraft carriers and they had lifts of a set size to take the aircraft to and from from flight deck to hangar deck. The Buccaneer was too big for the lift in normal flying configuration, so in addition to the usual folding wings, Blackburn made sure that the airbrakes could be opened fully and the nose cone with its electronics fit and refuelling probe could also fold back. Doing all of this allowed the Bucc to fit the lifts. Clever.
The first step was to take off the nose from one kit. We have to remember to cut out a small bit for the hinge to go. The resin kit has a one-piece nose cone and a plug for the main part of the fuselage. These were really easy to fit to the Airfix kit.
The hinge piece itself was missing from the resin kit, so I just cut a bit of plastic card to size. The whole thing was glued up using two-part epoxy for strength, then the interior painted with yellow zinc chromate primer.
The kit was finished with practice 1000lb bombs and rocket launchers, a few remove-before-flight tags and open airbrakes.
For the other S.1, I wanted to change up the weapon load. From its very early days, the Buccaneer has one important job. Countering the threat from the Sverdlov class cruisers of the Soviet Navy. Built in the 1950s, these were the last conventional all-gun cruisers built by the Soviets, mounting 12 six-inch guns and defended with large amounts of radar-directed anti-aircraft artillery. In the days of guided missiles this may not sound too threatening, but in the late 1950s and early 1960s the Sverdlovs were a very potent enemy. Just remember, the six-inch guns of HMS Belfast moored near Tower Bridge in London could easily take out the London Gateway services on the M1, and the Sverdlov's guns were more modern and better directed. So, the Admiralty decided that the best way to deal with them was to lob a nuclear bomb at them from a distance, and that the Buccaneer was the aircraft for the job.
The bomb used was called Red Beard. It was carried semi-recessed into the bomb bay as it was too large for internal carriage. The model comes from Freightdog, and includes the bomb with the modified bomb bay door. It all fits simply into the Airfix kit.
Painted up it looks menacing enough. The yellow "live round" stripe has a broken red stripe next to it – to denote special munition.
One final note is on the wing tips. The Airfix kit comes with the expected S.2 flared wingtips. These are triangular and flare out at the trailing edge. They were designed to counter some aerodynamic issues caused by the increased size of the Spey engine housing and inlet. They did, in turn cause some issues of wing loading, but that it by the by for now. Anyway, the S.1 had plain wingtips. Oddly enough, the Airfix kit comes with these too as part of the transparency sprue. Whether that is planning ahead for a future S.1 kit of their own, or whether later S.2s in the RAF or S.50s in South Africa reverted to the original design I'm not sure, but it made my job easier!
So, there we go. Painted up in a couple of variations seen in the squadron this brace of Buccaneer S.1s look rather fine and are a very good addition to the 'heavy metal' era of the squadron.

To Catch a Fly…?
You will remember, at least you will had you read the entry on the Parnall Plover, that in the 1920s a replacement was being sought for the Nieuport Nightjar fighter board His Majesty's aircraft carriers under Air Ministry Specification 6/22. Two types were given a shot at the job, the Plover and the Fairey Flycatcher. The Flycatcher won the competition by being a bit easier to handle both in the air and on ship.
The Flycatcher went on to serve from 1923 to 1934, although many were replaced by Hawker Nimrods and Ospreys before that. Some 192 aircraft were produced. Most particularly, the type was used by both 402 and 404 (Fleet Fighter) Flights, the amalgamation of which resulted in 800 Naval Air Squadron in April 1933.
So, there being no polystyrene kit of the Flycatcher in 1/72 available, I got hold of a couple of resin kits from Karaya, a Polish company that also does the Choroszy Modelbud kits such as the Parnall Plover. The two versions differ mainly in that the early version sometimes had a spinner over the propeller and the late version had a collective exhaust ring leading to two exhaust pipes.
As usual for a resin kit, the bits come as a loose collection of stuff with some mounted on supports and others just moulded. Everything comes with plenty of flash but this is easy enough to get rid of most of the time.
So, after cleaning all the bits with detergent and a quick spray of primer, we set off. The interior is basic but decent enough, although I found the setting of the cockpit floor a bit tricky. But I got it all glued together, then started to get things marked up. The undercarriage doesn't have a well-defined slot for the legs, neither do the struts.
But a bit of attention with a hand drill sorts this out. I also added drilled holes for the cables connecting the upper and lower ailerons. The rigging of this will be a challenge, but until then…
Getting on with the fuselage seemed a good idea as it would be much trickier to do with the wings attached. A bit more work adds the engine and exhausts, the gun sight and the guns on this late model aircraft. The tailplane is added as well…
There are plenty of little bits of rigging to apply as well. The cables to the elevators and rudder are exposed at this point.
The biplane rig was very valuable in holding the upper wing in place for the struts, followed son after by the cross-rigging. Note that the cabane struts and their rigging is already in place.
Last to be attached were the cables linking the elevators. The brass wire was bent forward to be glued to the top of the actuator horns, then forward to the entrance points on the wings.
So, that is that. I did two of them, one for 402 (Fleet Fighter) Flight and the other for 404 Flt.
So, apart from the Nieuport Nightjar, of which there is only a vac form kit available and I'm not yet brave enough to take that on, the first biplanes in the early DNA of 800NAS have been done. Next a return to heavy metal and even more messing about with resin…

Way back in naval aviation history, even before 800 Naval Air Squadron had been founded, aeroplanes carried by the Royal Navy belonged very firmly to the RAF. Aircraft were either seaplanes that were catapulted from cruisers or wheeled aircraft operating from aircraft carriers. The latter were organised into fleet fighter flights. Two of these, Nos. 402 and 404 (Fleet Fighter) Flights RAF were amalgamated in 1933 to form 800 Naval Air Squadron.
The standard fighter on aircraft carriers in the early 1920s was the Gloster (Nieuport) Nightjar. Two competing designs were trialled to replace them, the Fairey Flycatcher (of which more later) and the Parnall Plover. Six aircraft were given to 404 (Fleet Fighter) Flight for evaluation.
Cover art, but misspelt name!
The kit comes from a Polish company called Choroszy Modelbud. It is a resin kit, not my favourite medium as you will remember from the Hawker Nimrod II, but it is the only one available so there we go.
The kit comes as a collection of loose bits and some things on tiny supports. Everything needs cleaning up due to moulding flash, even some very delicate things like interplane struts. Anyway, it all goes together reasonably well, with the usual problem of trying to get the upper wing set in place. In the end I used a biplane rig which holds the two wings in place so the struts can be glued in place and some brass wire rigging added. This stabilises everything, then the small cabane struts can be placed between the fuselage and upper wing.
The rigging also needs to be done for the tail controls. All the cables attaching to the rudders and elevators were exposed from about half way down the fuselage.
Overall paint is aluminium dope with a black nose.
Apart from the issue of trying to put the upper wing in place, this resin kit went reasonably well and has resulted in a charming addition to the project.
The Plover also went reasonably well, but the Flycatcher was found to be easier to fly and easier to rig on ship. So the Flycatcher was purchased and the Plover went into relative obscurity. No examples survive.
Next up is the Plover's rival, the Fairey Flycatcher…

You served for but a short time…
On VJ-Day, denied the task of helping with the invasion of Malaya, 800 Naval Air Squadron instead found itself being disbanded. Its aircraft, the mighty Grumman Hellcat II, were disembarked at RNAS Trincomalee in Sri Lanka and its crews shipped back to the UK having won a total of 13 Battle Honours during the war.
However, the squadron was doing nothing more than taking a breather. On 5th August 1946 the squadron was re-established at RNAS Lee-on-Solent, the crews then making their way to RNAS Eglington (now Derry Airport) where on October 1st the squadron reformed with the Seafire Mk.XV.
The Mk.XV lasted a very short while in the squadron, being replaced by the Mk.XVII in February 1947 when the squadron was assigned to 13th Carrier Air Group onboard HMS Triumph. Despite this very brief stint of duty, the Mk.XV managed to have two sub-versions known as the 'frame hook' and the 'stinger hook' varieties.
The frame hook was an 'A'-frame with a covering panel fitted to the underside of the rear fuselage about half way between the wing trailing edge and the tail wheel. The stinger type extended from a fairing at the base of the rudder and effectively trailed below and behind the aircraft. Captain Eric 'Winkle' Brown, the greatest naval pilot of all time who tested both types, found that the stinger was easier to position to catch a wire than the frame hook, and so all the subsequent Seafires had stingers. Quite what the crews thought about giving up the huge and rugged Hellcat for the slight, sprightly and twitchy Seafire I have yet to discover, but I can't imagine they were too happy about the very narrow undercarriage and the terribly restricted front view.
Anyway, the kit came from the rather glorious five-aircraft set by Sword. This has five different Seafires: the Mk.IIc, Mk.III. frame hook Mk.XV, stinger Mk.XV and the Mk.XVII. Each is bagged up as a complete kit in the box. Of course, this is made a bit easier due to the fact that there are only really two fuselage shapes and only one wing design across the marks. Also, if you have ever looked at a Sword Seafire kit, there are a lot of unused parts which actually belong to other marks. In effect, you could probably box up five Sword 'Seafires' and just have different decals and different instructions for each. Oh, and the exhausts come as resin parts.
Anyway, the kits are decent enough to do and I have made the stinger Mk.XV and the Mk.XVII previously. What I will do in the future is make the Mk.XVII again but with a proper-looking wing fold.
So, Seafires all done now. I now sit on the edge of the Dark Side – resin kits need to be made…

A farewell to Seafires…
At the end of May 1950, North Korean troops headed across the border between them and South Korea. Despite UN resolutions, they continued on toward the capital at Seoul. Allied forces in the region were mobilised and the Korean War started.
Not far away in Japan, a British 'Colossus' Class light fleet carrier, HMS Triumph, was despatched to join with the American carrier USS Valley Forge to form a naval strike force to provide fast reaction to the invasion and to try to slow the advance of North Korean forces. Aboard HMS Triumph were the Seafire FR.47s of 800 Naval Air Squadron and the Firefly AS.1s of 827 NAS. And my Dad. By 2nd June 1950, both squadrons were engaged on air strikes against airfields, railways and other logistic sites.
The Seafire FR.47 was the last in the long line of Spitfire/Seafire aircraft. Major differences over the Seafire Mk.17 they replaced were a six-bladed contra-rotating propeller to reduce the huge torque swing of the Griffon engine on take-off, four 20mm cannon replacing the mixed cannon/machine gun armament of the Mk.17 and a powered wing folding mechanism. Previous Seafires required a crew to unlock and fold the wings.
Light fleet carriers were built toward the end of WW2 and were not imagined to last for very long. It was not surprising that it wasn't long before HMS Triumph developed a problem in the after gland of one of its two propeller shafts. As a consequence, it could only steam at about 17 knots on one screw. This had a huge impact on the ability to launch their Seafires. Fully loaded with fuel and bombs or rockets, the Seafires needed a strong headwind to get airborne from Triumph's small deck. There was a hydraulic accelerator (predecessor to the steam catapult) but that only allowed a very slow rate of take-offs. Two solutions were adopted – one of which was decidedly 'Heath Robinson'.
The sensible solution involved adding a battery of four solid fuel rockets to the aircraft to help push them into the air more quickly. The rocket carriers were dropped after take-off as they contributed to very significant drag. The other solution addressed the fact that the Seafire only had two flap settings – up and 35 degrees down for landing. What was needed was a partial flap deployment – say around 15 degrees – that would boost lift without too much extra drag. So, before launch the pilot would select flaps 'down', aircraft handlers would then hold wooden chocks inside the flap bay and the pilot would select flaps 'up'. The wooden chock held the flaps open at around 15 degrees. After take-off and in a stable accelerating climb, the pilot would briefly select flaps 'down' so the chocks fell out, allowing him to select the flaps fully 'up' for the rest of the flight. Landing back on the deck he was able to select flaps full 'down' for landing.
This model is the same kit from Special Hobby as I built some time ago. The kit comes with an array of parts not required, as it apparently covers the Spitfire Mk.21, 22, and 24 as well as the Seafire Mk.45, 46 and 47. Once you take away the extraneous bits, you are left with some sparse sprues of plastic!
The build was much as before, with nice photo etch parts as decent detailing. I cut away the outer flap panels from the lower halves of the wings (these are split flaps, so the upper surface of the wing is fixed).
I also had to drill holes for the rocket mountings and the IFF aerial as these are not provided in the mouldings. There is a diagram in the instructions saying where the holes must go, but it would be easier to have them set up in the mould. On many kits, such as the new Airfix Buccaneer, optional stores stations have a hole half-way into the plastic from the inside. So, you know where to drill if you want it, or you can leave it and the skin is untouched. A tiny difference, but something very easy to do.
Anyway, I think that in the time since my first FR.47 my skills and patience has improved somewhat, such that I have added all kinds of little detail bits that come with the kit (such as the rocket fuse wires) as well as all of the tiny stencil decals.
I have also tried to make the aircraft look well used, as it might have done after a few months of hard flying.
After repairs, HMS Triumph continued on the Korea station, providing fighter cover and armed reconnaissance for the fleet during the invasion at Inchon. They continued until late September 1950 when HMS Theseus arrived with its Sea Furies and Firefly AS.5s. By this point 800 NAS had only four airworthy Seafires, having lost most of its original aircraft and most of the replacements it was issued. None was lost to enemy action. One was shot down by a US B-29 'Superfortress' that confused its profile with that of a Yak-9D of the North Korean Air Force (the US Navy kindly reaching the pilot), leading to the adoption of the black and white 'invasion' stripes shown here. The rest were lost in landing accidents or from over-stressed fuselages.
The Korean War marked the end of the front-line use of the Seafire in the Fleet Air Arm. The Seafire was never a rugged aircraft, and by the time of the FR.47 the ever-increasing landing weights meant that the basic structures were getting too weak. The day after the squadron was relieved, it moved to 'peacetime' flying rules and the remaining allegedly-airworthy Seafires were immediately grounded due to airframe buckling in the tail. 800 NAS returned to the UK and were disbanded, being reformed shortly thereafter at RNAS Ford to work up with the Supermarine Attacker and to form the first British naval jet squadron.

First of the, well, quite a few really…
From time to time, I take the view that one or two early models need replacing. I am hoping that my skills, such as they are, are on the way up and new kits appear that are really quite good to make. So it is in this case, with the remake of the first of the Hawker Hurricanes and Sea Hurricanes operated by 800 Naval Air Squadron.
I have opted here for an aircraft based at RNAS Lee-on-Solent in 1942. This was when they were training pilots for the squadron to re-equip on retiring the Fairey Fulmar. The Royal Navy had their own training aircraft because the radio system was different from the used by the RAF, and as the pilots no longer had the radio operator they carried in the Fulmar they had to get used to doing it themselves. As it was a procedural trainer it didn't have a tail hook for deck landings, so technically is a converted Hurricane I rather than a Sea Hurricane I…
The kit is by a relatively new kid on the block from Poland called Arma Hobby. Everything about them is slick in presentation, from the decent box artwork to the very well designed and colour printed instruction sheet.
The kit itself comes with one huge sprue and one smaller one, plus a sprue of transparencies and a decal sheet. All of the plastic is very well moulded with sharp, but not too obtrusive, panel lines. Variations included are a set of de Havilland propellers and a set of the later Rotol props with three types of spinner. So in essence some options for a Hurricane I or a Hurricane Ia. Transparencies include hood open or closed – the open hood version has to be a bit wider to fit over the fuselage. In reality the hood just slid back, but you can't make the hood strong enough and thin enough at this scale in clear polystyrene. The decal sheet includes all kinds of things like yellow tips for the propellers and the red fabric patches for the gun port covers. The set of stencils is about as comprehensive as any hurricane model I have seen. However, as this is a Royal Navy aircraft, most of the markings come from a separate sheet made by Print Scale.
What i did invest in, and later regretted to a large extent, was some customising. The detail kit by Eduard is excellent and comes pre-painted. The flaps kit is one of the fiddliest things I have ever had to use.
So, to start off we build the cockpit area. This is very well modelled, and includes the structural tube frame around the pilot.
Then we move on to the flaps. First you cut out the existing flaps from the bottom half of the wing (these are split flaps).
Then fit the new flap housing. The kit is designed specifically for the Arma Hobby Hurricane, so the fit is actually very good.
There are a few brackets to assemble and you need to add a couple of lengths of 0.5mm rod to make the flap support arms for the inner flaps. Very fiddly stuff, but we got there in the end!
The rest of the kit goes together quickly and well. There are alignment posts on things like the fuselage halves, and everything fits together first time. This is the result of brand new moulds and modern formulations of polystyrene. Everything is crisp and sharp and easy.
There is even a mount for the reflector gun sight, the sight glass is cut from a spare bit of clear acrylic about 2mm x 2mm.
You will have noticed how much weathering has been applied. As this aircraft was used for training, I imagined it to be a very old hack of an airframe, so I dirtied it up enormously. Here you can see the starboard side before I get going.
Then compare it with a roughened up version applied already to the port side…
Look pretty darned good, I thought. Anyway, getting close to the end and it is time for the flaps to go on. They have loads of ribs that have to be bent backward and glued to the inner surface of the flap itself. These were a bloody nightmare.
Still, got something reasonably good at the end and they were glued in place in the fully open position.
So, there we have it, a Hawker Hurricane I from 800NAS based at RNAS Lee-on-Solent in 1942. I must say I am extremely happy with this kit.

The Osprey folds its Wings…
I am concerned about this project, and what it does to the mind by way of obsession. I can't think of another reason why I would choose to try to do a wing fold conversion on a biplane. But I did.
Ever since seeing photos of Hawker Ospreys of 800NAS with folded wings, I have felt obliged to build one. The process was, well, interesting. I know how I'd do it in the future if I had to, but this one didn't turn out too badly. Anyone with any knowledge of aviation will spot mistakes straight away, but this isn't a build for a museum so I'm going to chill out and think positive. It looks like an Osprey and the wings are folded.
The donor kit was the Osprey III/IV by A-Model that I have built before. The kit started as before with the fuselage taking shape. Then came the modifications.
First was to mark up the wings for cutting. There are clear marks where the fixed and folding portions meet up, which is helpful.
Once cut, the lower plane inboard sections can be fitted to the fuselage and the tension struts to the fuselage put in place.
Then the upper centre section can be fitted to the cabane struts above the fuselage.
Then the outer (folding) portions of both wings can be attached with the struts and a short length of polystyrene rod to represent the braces used in reality to support the inner edge of the upper wing.
After that, we can start painting. All over aluminium dope with cerrux grey on the nose metalwork and the red and blue stripes of HMS Ark Royal.
One photo reference I found showed an Osprey of 800NAS with a red tail but with a striped panel superimposed – my guess is that this is a flight leader's aircraft. I used the usual distressing powders and oils to make it look a little 'lived in'. Then the big moment…
Joining the wings went more simply than I had anticipated, with the two sides lining up roughly the same. I just have to photograph from the right angle to hide the worst gaps… I painted the inside of the fold lines an interior green and added a small bracing rod on the lower planes – I can't see the Admiralty allowing the wings to be unsecured completely when folded.
So that is the pair completed – an Osprey III with folded wings and an Osprey IV with wings out.
Next will be another modification project to replace a model i have already done, but with a new set of decals. Intrigued? then watch this space!

Another day, another Bucc…
Time to go back to heavy metal – the heaviest of all the metal flown by 800NAS, the superb Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer S.2 and the new Airfix kit. You may recall I have already done one with wings folded, etc., so now I want to do one 'clean' and in the early Fleet markings.
The kit is exactly as before, except there are more bits I'm not using. Airbrakes are not deployed, wings are level and the flaps are not set.
Most of the faff with this build has been finding the decals to go on it. The all-over extra dark sea grey (EDSG) used in later years means that the underside decals are all white. I had to get a decal set from KH World that included black underside markings. However, this also included some yellow panel edging and other bits that the later Airfix markings didn't use. I managed to cobble together the serial number and used things like the squadron badge from Airfix. The 'E' for HMS Eagle came from an Xtradecal set of white letters.
All things considered, I'm happy with the look. Anything white at sea gets grubby quickly so I added some oil stains to the black panel lines to make the plane look a little 'lived in'.
So, what is next? Probably a lot of work. Both kits that are due to arrive first will have some modification to a greater or lesser extent. Let's see how brave I feel…

Philippine fashion retailer Golden ABC Inc is set for Asian expansion.
The company behind Penshoppe, Oxygen, Regatta, For Me, Memo, Tyler and Red Logo said it plans to increase its approximately 660 stores in the Philippines to 700, and open 50 stores elsewhere in the region by the end of 2016.
"The vision of the company is to become the most admired Asian fashion brand company," said Liu in an interview.
Golden ABC has recently approved six new sites in Vietnam for its expansion there. Currently, it has more than 40 stores outside the Philippines, and most of these are located in Indonesia, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Dubai and Bahrain. It also has a store in Cambodia and will debut in Myanmar in August. Online, Golden ABC has a strong presence in Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan and Hong Kong.
Liu added that Asia is the focus as of the moment, and there are no plans to open stores in the US or Europe yet, despite invitations to these markets.
"I want to put more focus and attention in ASEAN, which I think rightfully deserves the opportunity because that is really the new frontier, the new growth area," he said.


I've had Dollhouse on my grid since it was first announced at last year's upfronts, so I'm concerned I may have been anticipating the premiere too much.
The biggest compliment I can pay about "Ghost" is the way the writers weaved the explanations about the imprint technology into the storyline without ruining the pacing of the episode.
My biggest complaint comes from the scene where the FBI agent (played by Battlestar Galactica's Tahmoh Penikett) sneaks up on the Russian gangster dude in the bathroom. No man enters an empty restroom and chooses the low urinal when there are several standard height ones available. We call it the leg-splatterer for a reason, so I can only conclude that this gave them the best camera angles and shot composition for the scene. I know this sounds petty, but bathroom design and traffic flow is kind of a hobby of mine.
When the episode ended, I was expecting to see J.J. Abrams's Bad Robot, even though I knew Joss Whedon is behind the show. Something tells me I'm not the first and won't be the last person to ask if Joss took a blank series starring Eliza Dushku and imprinted Alias on it. Admittedly, the resemblance won't really turn me off since Alias is one of my favorite series ever.
Snide Alias remarks aside, I do think the show has potential. It is certainly a twist on the genre, even if the twist is one that telegraphs the all-too-certain glitches that will inevitably disrupt the imprint/wipe process. The high-quality cast is experienced in the genre and should be able to deliver on a weekly basis. Whedon's ability to craft a quality series is proven, even if Fox's willingness to keep it on the air isn't. Ultimately, I think this was a mediocre episode, and as always, I will cut the creators some slack due to the difficulty of introducing both characters and crazy fake technology all in one hour.


We're getting a healthy dose of winter weather. Ice, snow, and frigid temps are here! While most of us take refuge indoors, we can't forget about our feathered friends. The good news is, if they haven't flown south they can handle the weather. Still, survival can be a challenge. Providing wild bird seed, a water source, and a place to roost is a major help to their survival.
If birding is your thing, make sure to visit us at Bomberger's for feeders and wild bird food to keep them flocking to your backyard all season.
Tube feeders are great for protecting seed from the elements.
Food high in fat & protein provide high levels of energy necessary for keeping birds warm during the harsh winter months. You can try black oil sunflower seed, suet, and even peanut butter.
Water can be hard to find when everything is frozen. Water is needed to keep hydrated and groom feathers to help keep their bodies insulated. Try keeping your bird bath water thawed with a submersible bird bath heater or de-icer.
A birdhouse can provide a place to stay warm. Use dry grass to provide some added warmth.
Don't wait for harsh weather to hit before you try any of the above. Plan ahead. When the weather let's up, be ready to clean and maintain those baths, houses, and feeders.

A Christmas Carol è un film del 1971 diretto da Richard Williams. Tratto dal racconto di Charles Dickens Canto di Natale, il cortometraggio animato fu inizialmente trasmesso in TV dall'ABC il 21 dicembre 1971 e fu successivamente distribuito anche al cinema. Nel 1972 vinse l'Oscar al miglior cortometraggio d'animazione. La scelta di premiare con l'Oscar un cortometraggio creato originariamente per il piccolo schermo destò qualche critica, tanto che l'Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences dovette cambiare le regole a tal riguardo e dal 1973 solo cortometraggi scritti appositamente per il cinema poterono ottenere una candidatura al prestigioso premio.

Trama
L'usuraio Ebenezer Scrooge è un uomo arido e duro che non comprende il significato del Natale. La sera della vigilia riceve l'apparizione del defunto socio Jacob Marley che gli annuncia un orribile futuro dopo la morte qualora non si ravvedesse. Durante la notte, Scrooge riceve le visite di tre fantasmi grazie ai quali capisce i propri errori e si ravvede, diventando così noto per la sua generosità e per la sua capacità di mantenere vivo lo spirito del Natale durante tutto l'anno.

The residents of Tarentum will pay for it with housing, taxed next year | Mousy News
The Council of Tarentum has approved the last budget of the district for the year 2023, which holds the property tax at 5.48 milles.
The owner of a property assessed at $100,000 will pay $548 to the district again.
The Council also agreed to keep the income tax rate at 0.5%, dropping a proposal to raise it to 1%.
Borough Administrator Dwight Boddorf said the move has been delayed pending next year's recommendations from an independent financial consultant.
"We're going to transfer money from their capital savings account to make up," Boddorf said.
Boddorf initially proposed raising the income tax to help with the $1.2 million deficit.
There are many important projects to consider in the coming year, including the purchase of a million gallon tank at the water treatment plant and the construction of the first national highway, he said.
This will increase the income of the electricity company in the circle.
Tarentum is one of the 35 municipalities in the state that operates its own electricity distribution system. The district buys electricity in the wholesale market and delivers it at retail prices to its 2,500 customers.
There will be no rate increase for customers of the electric circle.
Boddorf said the district is one of the most affordable electric providers in Western Pennsylvania.
The district's $17 million budget includes $3.8 million in general funds, $1.8 million in water, $4.2 million in electricity and $6.2 million in utilities. fund. There is another $628,000 in the canal budget.
Next year's spending is $1.4 million for the police, $104,000 for the fire service and $692,000 for public works.
Budget details are available at tarentumboro.com.

ReadMe | Has it been 2 years already?
Today Paperless will reach $100,000 in revenue (since March 2010), with over 60,000 sales and over 146,000 downloads of the free version. It's nowhere near as much as the huge runaway success stories in the app store – but it has been enough to keep me in business doing what I love.
It feels great to have created something that many people use every day – and to have generated that income completely on my own.
It's not enough to sustain this business for the long term though. That $100,000 is before taxes are taken out, and I have a family to help take care of… so, for the past 8 months I've been working on another app that ties into my love of photography. I hope to release that within the next month or two.
To anyone who has purchased Paperless and helped support what I'm doing: THANK YOU!

Q: Database Design SQL - Inserted Checkbox values during edit I'm developing an application and have a question regarding the database design. I have a table called 'consultant', a table 'branch' and a table that has a collection of the consultant_id and the selected branch_id.
What happens is that during inserting a new consultant all branch names are shown in checkboxes. The user fills information about the consultant and selects certain checkboxes. Information about consultant is inserted in the consultant table and the selected branches are inserted in a table consultant_branch that includes id of consultant and id of branch. Is this database design right?
Secondly I do understand that I would insert the selected branches into consultant_branch table during saving. But, during edit how would i do that? Delete all consultant ids and save again the selected branches into the consultant_branch table? Here the SQL:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `consultant` (
 `id` int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
 `street` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
 `plz` varchar(10) NOT NULL,
 `city` varchar(10) NOT NULL,
 `status` int(1) NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `branch` (
  `id` int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `status` int(1) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `consultant_branch` (
 `consultant_id` int(10) NOT NULL,
 `branch_id` int(10) NOT NULL,
 KEY `consultant_id` (`consultant_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

ALTER TABLE `consultant_branch` ADD CONSTRAINT `FK_bbb` FOREIGN KEY (`consultant_id`) REFERENCES `consultant` (`id`)    ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE;

A: They are two approach. Let's supose new is new list of consultant_banch and old is the old one:

*

*Delete all old that not are in new then insert all new that not are in old. This is the most tedious approach for a developer and expensive in database terms but it is needed if relation table has other attributes than primary key (both id's) or is referenced by other tables.

*As you say, replace old by new deleting old and inserting new.
The analyst will take a decision about best algorithm for your case considering both previos points and grow application prospects.
In any case, don't forget to enclose all operations in a single transaction to avoid inconsistent database state. InnoDB supports transactions.

Day 5, TransAmerica 2 point oh.
On Friday, I went out to the crash site. Just ol' Precious and myself, leaving Mr. Zimmerman (the trailer) sulking in the hotel room. I just wanted to take my time and go at an easy pace and not be weighed down by full touring regalia. Plus, it was an 82 mile round trip, which would've been a hell of a day back at it!
Long story short – we noodled out there and I got sunburnt and stood at the side of the road where it happened and felt, well, embarrassed. Part of me still can't believe I crashed. That this is the situation I'm in. Back at it. Again.
But that's the way the cracker disintegrates.
Today was the real Day 1. Although slow and not very big in terms of mileage, just a taste of what's to come really. I think the video above says enough, but it was a really nice day where I sweated, groaned along in my granny gear, was rained on and enjoyed the great humidity thanks to the clouds keeping a real lid on the day. My least favorite hill occurred right at the end – the climb up to the Cookie Lady's house. Kinda makes you all the more grateful to get there.
Today was also a shared experience, and for that I am truly grateful. Thanks to Adam, who came out to ride with me and make sure I didn't have an attack of the freakouts. I have to admit, I'm very, very squeamish about downhills. A little afraid to brake. I'll get over it I guess. I have 60-odd days to work this out. Anyway, Adam: You, Sir, are a good egg.
PS: I need to include the twitter address for Precious in the video, but it takes too long to update on a slow connection so I'll have to do it later. Anyhoo, he's at @yesiamprecious.
Go Janeen! I will be following you on this ride.
I'll be looking for you on the distant shore. I try to follow you on twitter also as heiferbison, but I'm a twitter newbie. It's a lonh haul so I hope you yake time to enjoy a few selected points along the way.
making everything ready for your arrival). Keep the spirit up.
Super impressed to see you back at it. Seems like a fast recovery! I'm looking forward to following the trip.
I also stole a page from your book and rode to Stony Point and back from Carroll Gardens yesterday. Unfortunately I topped out at 97.8 miles and by the time I got home, pizza sounded better than a ride to park slope and back just to tick off 100. But thanks for the recommendation via your stellar videos- it was a great ride!
great to see you back at it! following you on twitter and dailymile!
I am happy to see you on the road again.

Q: How do create couchdb design docs with Nano in Node.js? Looking through the README it doesn't look there is a way to create design docs with Nano?  What are others doing for this?

A: Simply use the db.insert function.
db.insert(design_doc, '_design/design_doc_name', callback);

Here's a more complete example (from tests/view/query):
  db.insert(
  { "views":
    { "by_name_and_city":
      { "map": function(doc) { emit([doc.name, doc.city], doc._id); } }
    }
  }, '_design/people', function (error, response) {
    console.log("yay");
  });

If you are interested in learning some more check this sample or go on and read the CouchDB Guide

Q: what happened when I call setTimeout in for loop? Please run the code snippet, as you see, the console output as follow:
1
...
5
6 (5 times)

So far as I know, setTimeout create a new function stack, but i<=5 should be stop when i == 5, So I can't understand why 6.
This is MDN about explain setTimeout.
from 1 to 5 I is very simple to understand, but what happened when call setTimeout, and how to explain 6 exist in console?

for(var i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
    console.log(i)
    setTimeout(function() {
      console.log(i)
    }, 0)
}

A: The first console.log call gets run five times in a row before the ones in setTimeout ever start. Then, i is 6, and console.log(i) gets called those five times that are all queued up.
When you run setTimeout, it returns a handle to the timer. You're not actually doing anything with the return value, but it's still on the queue.
Also, a timeout value of 0 doesn't technically mean "run right now", it just means "add to the top of the queue".

A:

for(let i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
    setTimeout(function() {
      console.log(i)
    }, 0)
}

var creates a variable which isn't scoped to the for loop's block (it's not block scoped), whereas let does this. Therefore the functions created with the setTimeout invocations will all look at the same var and hence print 6 (which its value by the time they'll have a chance to run, while with let, they have a closure over this block scoped variable, hence all correctly print their intended values, 1..5.

The chance of UFC re-launching a Nate Diaz vs Dustin Poirier fight is virtually non-existent, according to president Dana White.
The two fighters were set to clash at UFC 230 at Madison Square Garden next month, but Poirier pulled out of the event with an injury that was later described as a 'small setback'.
The 29-year-old is scheduled to fly out to Los Angeles for treatment this week.
Following Poirier's withdrawal, UFC confirmed that Diaz would not take part, putting his return on hold with the 29-year-old last entering the Octagon over two years ago at UFC 202, when he was beaten by Conor McGregor.
Diaz had previously pledged that he would not fight again at UFC unless it was to face McGregor in a rematch - he therefore shocked fans when he agreed a deal to fight Poirier.
Seemingly in possession of a desire to return, many have urged UFC to re-arrange the bout, with Poirier's injury confirmed as non-serious.
Dana White has, however, dismissed these pleas, saying that he is no longer interested in booking a Diaz fight unless he's desperate.
"I'm not interested in making a Diaz fight until Diaz is just absolutely dying to fight," White told ESPN's Brett Okamoto.
The UFC president and Diaz have endured a rocky relationship, with the 49-year-old long-frustrated by the fighter and his brother Nick's refusal to arrange fights in the regular procedure recommended by UFC.
Nate created further animosity when he appeared to ask to be fired if Khabib Nurmagomedov's teammates were in an inexplicable tweet.
White refused to bill the Diaz-Poirier clash as the main event at UFC 230, and it now appears that the wait for Diaz to step back into the Octogan will be prolonged.
Pound-for-pound no.1 Daniel Cormier will face the no.2 challenger for his heavyweight title Derrick Lewis in the main event on November 3.

Maiduguri – The caretaker chairman of Gubio Local Government Area of Borno State, Alhaji Modi Gubio has said the council under his watch was able to reconstruct about 151 residential houses hitherto destroyed by Boko Haram insurgents in Gubio town at a total cost of N95 million.
He said, this is in addition to construction of eight mosques and clinics for the better use of its people, especially Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) who have since returned to their communities following degrading of insurgents by military troops.
Gubio stated this on Sunday in an interview in Maiduguri, the state capital.
He said, having recognized that the emergence of Boko Haram sect was as a result of illiteracy, lack of education and poverty, he has personally offered himself out of his tight schedules to teach lessons for two hours each during school time to complement voluntary teaching services.


The first children's room I was in charge of was at the Mott Haven branch of the New York Public Library, in the South Bronx. It was a venerable Carnegie library, the oldest in the Bronx. In the early 1970s the neighborhood was called Fort Apache.
The children's room occupied the whole second floor, with huge windows on three sides that pivoted, letting in the sun and wind all summer. Round radiators with marble tops warmed the room in winter.
The Mott Haven neighborhood was alive with children. They came trooping up the stairs and fanned out into the space and light of that gracious room. The senior clerk for the room was a warm and talented neighborhood woman named Caroline Williams. She took me in hand and I happily followed her lead.
"We need some diapers up here," Caroline told me. And so we had diapers.
"We can get free lunches for these kids in the summertime," she instructed. So we had lunches provided by a city program.
Soon a troop of children arrived with armloads and boxes of books overdue by eons. Mrs. Williams kept piling them on a book cart, thanking the kids for finding them. We never asked where the books had been, or questioned their condition. We welcomed those children back and they joined the crowd of regulars.
—showing a luminous new print of The Red Balloon to a room filled with at least three hundred children. We gasped together at the brilliant colors, and the image of the boy carried by the balloons above the harsh Parisian neighborhood.
—learning to make hand puppets with Pura Belpre and watching her bring Perez and Martina to life with the slightest movement, the smallest gesture of a puppet's head or hand.
—snowy winter afternoons when children sat near the huge round radiators, the snow on their coats turning to steam.
What a fine education I received at Mott Haven branch library, tutored by Caroline Williams and the children there. Keep the doors open, keep the children coming, make everyone welcome. Share the sun, the breezes, the warm, round radiators. And of course the books!

A couple of weeks ago, an experienced Eurofighter Typhoon industry test pilot wrote to The Aviationist to reply to a Lockheed F-35 test pilot who, talking to Flight's Dave Majumdar, had claimed that all three variants of the Joint Strike Fighter will have better kinematic performance than any fourth-generation fighter plane with combat payload, including the Eurofighter Typhoon.
At that time, we said that the F-22 tends to lose too much energy when using TV and unless the Raptor can manage to immediately get in the proper position to score a kill, the energy it loses makes it quite vulnerable.
We have all been around long enough to recognise there is not a single sensor able to turn the night into day, nor a unique aerodynamic design feature capable of ensuring by itself air dominance if implemented.
The effectiveness of an air superiority fighter relies on the successful combination of a range of design elements including thrust-to-weight ratio, wing loading, avionics and weapons integration. Furthermore, appropriate tactics and valuable aircrew training must be developed to exploit the full potential of the weapon system.
Thrust Vectoring is one of the design elements that can contribute to create a certain advantage during close air combat by generating impressive pitch and yaw rates, but only in a limited portion of the flight envelope at velocities well below "corner speed".
Moreover, Thrust Vector operation requires the pilot to "create the opportunity" for its usage, spending valuable time in manoeuvring the aircraft to achieve a suitable condition and managing the activation of the Thrust Vector Control.
If you are "defensive" and your aircraft has Thrust Vectoring, you can possibly outturn your enemy, but that most likely won't prove to be a great idea: an energy fighter like the Typhoon will conveniently "use the vertical" to retain energy and aggressively reposition for a missile or gun shot. Also the subsequent acceleration will be extremely time (and fuel) consuming, giving your opponent the opportunity to tail chase you for ever, exploiting all its short range weapon array.
If you are "neutral," when typically vertical, rolling and flat scissors would accompany the progressive energy decay, similarly performing machines would remain closely entangled, negating the opportunity for Thrust Vector activation.
If you are "offensive," probably stuck in a never ending "rate fight," Thrust Vector could provide the opportunity for a couple of shots in close sequence. Make sure nobody is coming to you from the "support structure", otherwise that could be also your last move.
Eurofighter has decided to develop for the Typhoon High Off-Bore-Sight Weapons, supported by Helmet Cueing, to retain energy and target tracking ability while manoeuvring WVR (Within Visual Range) at relatively high but sustainable Angles of Attack. For those who may require some additional AoA, the "Strakes" package is progressing well and soon it will be offered to Typhoon's Customers. Nevertheless, Strakes is not purely about extreme AoA, but also suitable Roll Rates and manageable energy characteristics. Because in the European way of doing things, an all around balanced solution counts more than a single eye opening performance.
It is a fact that against Eastern produced fighters provided with Thrust Vectoring, throughout the years the Typhoon has showed an embarrassing (for them) kill-to-loss ratio.
Even if this can be true, the risk of coming to close range is still high. At a distance of about 50 km the Typhoon IRST (Infra-Red Search and Track) system could be capable to find even a stealthy plane "especially if it is large and hot, like the F-22″ as a Eurofighter pilot once said.

One of Pentecostal Bishop, Rt. Rev. Seun Adeoye, has urged Nigerians to pray for the quick recovery of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying his wellbeing is so important to the nation's stability.
Bishop Adeoye warned that if anything should happen to Buhari, such would be a difficult burden as Nigeria will fall into wrong hands that are ready do anything to turn it into their private estates.
The cleric, who spoke during the 1st Episcopal Honours and Gallantry Awards held at Sufficient Grace and Truth Ministry, Rehoboth Arena, Okinni, Osun State, last weekend, noted that only God can sustain the President's health.
He said: "I see trouble should anything go wrong with President Buhari. So, we need to pray for his quick recovery from this ailment. Buhari must not die; Buhari must live and that should be our prayers.
"If Buhari is not the president, we will be faced with more lies and propaganda where we are going to be made to call black white. Rule of law will turn to be rule of fear and democracy will be replaced by despotism, favoritism and god-fatherism.


You're trying to get the kids off to school, you can't find your cell phone, you're sitting in traffic….
Then a tiny control tower in your brain, decides to send out the order: Send in the stress hormones!
These stress hormones are the same ones that trigger your body's "fight or flight" response.
Your heart races, your breath quickens, and your muscles ready for action.
This response was designed to protect your body in an emergency by preparing you to react quickly. But when the stress response keeps firing, day after day, it could put your health at serious risk.
And some studies show that an acute stress, such as the death of a loved one — can actually trigger asthma attacks, in which the airway between the nose and the lungs constricts.
Stress can also cause the rapid breathing or hyperventilation that can bring on a panic attack in someone prone to panic attacks. Working to develop relaxation and breathing strategies that work for you can help.
When you're stressed, you may eat much more or much less than you usually do.
If you eat more or different foods, or increase your use of alcohol or tobacco, you can experience heartburn or acid reflux.
Stress or exhaustion can also increase the severity of heartburn pain.
Stress may affect menstruation among adolescent girls and women in several ways.
High levels of stress may be associated with absent or irregular menstrual cycles, more painful periods and changes in the length of cycles.
Stress may make premenstrual symptoms worse or more difficult to cope with and pre-menses symptoms may be stressful for many women.
These symptoms include cramping, fluid retention and bloating, negative mood (feeling irritable and "blue") and mood swings.
As menopause approaches, hormone levels fluctuate rapidly. These changes are associated with anxiety, mood swings and feelings of distress.
Thus menopause can be a stressor in and of itself.
Some of the physical changes associated with menopause, especially hot flashes, can be difficult to cope with.
Emotional distress may cause the physical symptoms to be worse.
Women who are more anxious may experience an increased number of hot flashes and/or more severe or intense hot flashes.
Women juggle personal, family, professional, financial and a broad range of other demands across their life span.
Stress, distraction, fatigue, etc., may reduce sexual desire — especially when women are simultaneously caring for young children or other family members, coping with chronic medical problems, feeling depressed, experiencing relationship difficulties or abuse, dealing with work problems, etc.
You can clearly correlate stress to weight gain.
Part of that link is due to poor eating during stress, but the stress hormone cortisol may also increase the amount of fat tissue your body hangs onto and enlarge the size of fat cells.
Higher levels of cortisol have been linked to more deep-abdominal fat—yes, belly fat.
Stress also makes your muscles tense, which can make the pain of a migraine worse.
Beyond treating the headache itself, focus on headache-proofing your home, diet, and lifestyle in general.
During acute stress, the hormone also interferes with neurotransmitters, the chemicals that brain cells use to communicate with each other.
That can make it hard to think straight or retrieve memories.

This week my travels found me in Dallas to rehearse for the upcoming Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices 2016 Sales Convention. (By the way, read more about that event here.) Because our hotel was only a few blocks away, while on a break from rehearsal I had the chance to make a quick visit to Dealey Plaza in downtown Dallas, a landmark of American history and the site where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated November 22, 1963.
As I walked the Dealey Plaza, it felt as if I had stepped back in time. The place stands pretty much as it did years ago—the same white colonnades adorn the main building, the same grassy knoll surges gently above the surrounding park. And in many ways, this preservation of the plaza fits squarely with the idea that though JFK may no longer be with us, his ideals and guiding principles remain.
The plaza has particular significance for me because I consider JFK as one of the finest examples of a leader anyone could hope to find. Honest, forthright, courageous … in every sense of the word, JFK embodied what it truly means to lead. So, being in the very spot where his life was tragically taken years ago—and just days before the Presidents Day holiday—I took the opportunity not just to lament the loss of a great man but also to reflect on the good he represented that no bullet can take away.
So what's the message? Or better yet, what's his message? JFK once said, "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." With this in mind, my hope is that we take Presidents Day as an opportunity not to merely thank our past leaders with words but to reaffirm an unspoken promise to lead in a way that would make them proud.

What would an independent Scotland mean for UK Science and Technology?
By Hapsci - December 07, 2012
I'm not going to pretend to know a lot about Scottish politics because I don't. But I am interested in what impact independence would have on science and technology - not just in Scotland but across the UK as whole.
Science and technology funding comes from Westminster and the research councils that allocate this funding are UK wide. An independent Scotland could mean a complete reorganisation of the councils and funding allocations, which would affect science and technology across the whole of the UK.
Last month I attended Science and The Parliament in Edinburgh. An event organised by the RSC that brings politicians, policy makers, scientists and research councils together. Jolly good event.
The event finished with a panel debate that tackled the question 'What would happen to science and technology in Scotland if it became independent'.
A brief overview of the debate and discussion would be that Scotland has a rich history of good science and technology and continues to contribute in this area. *stat from the panel* Scotland has 9% of the UK population but receives 13% of the science funding.
The panel seemed unsure as to how research councils worked. At one point someone on the panel suggested that Scotland (and I quote), "would just take the bits of the research councils that Scotland wanted". I'm not sure what the rest of the UK would have to say about that.
I won't go through all the minute details of the event as I want to focus on the bigger picture that the debate touched on but didn't look at in detail. What would happen to science in the UK if Scotland were to be come independent?
How will the UK research councils be split up?
Would Scotland still be part of the EU (or not) and would Scotland be eligible to apply for EU funding?
Where would the funding for science come from? At the minute it comes from Westminster, would a Scottish government match/increase/decrease that funding? Would Westminster change their strategy?
Would independence for Scotland reduce the amount of collaboration occurring between Scotland and the rest of the UK (and the world) (consensus being; probably not)
If the research councils were split in two then researchers would be competing with fewer researchers for money. Would that mean standards would slip across the UK as a whole?
This debate was eye opening for me, and clearly highlighted that these discussions haven't happened yet. I believe the research councils are starting to look in to what might happen but I do not know when these discussions will be shared. It's an area everyone in science and technology across the UK should be looking at, and thinking about not just those in Scotland.
You can read the coverage of this debate in The Herald here. I have also contacted the better together, and the Yes campaigns to get some reactions. If anyone has any suggestions as to who I could contact at the research councils then please let me know.
Independent Scotland phd science in the UK
endless psych 9 April 2013 at 10:19
Hi Heather.
Going by figures released by David Willets to match science funding Scotland needs to find 220,000,000 pounds. That is equivalent to 0.14% of Scottish GDP. The Westminster government currently contributes around 0.17% to research (the rest of the overall 2.5% spending coming from charitable bodies and private financing).
In reality the UK govt. spends as much as Belgium does on funding science.
These figures pleasantly surprised me. As 1% of GDP is the European science Govt. spending target and if people can convince the SNP to declare support for funding at that level than the Govt science funding available to Scottish scientists will far outstrip that offered by Westminster.
Whether or not the overall figure of 3% can be matched proportionately depends a lot on whether or not private and charitable science funding is a meritocracy or if it is protectionist.
Hapsci 10 April 2013 at 01:26
Thanks for the info, do you have a link to the numbers?? So if Scotland becomes independent, and part of the EU they will be spending 1% of GDP on science funding (if they stick to the target?)

Fujifilm X-E1 leaks into view oozing vintage cool

Steve Dent, @stevetdent
A Japanese site called Digicam Info has leaked pics of a previously unknown Fujifilm mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, the X-E1. The natty looking snapper bears a strong family resemblance to the X-Pro1 model, but looks to be flaunting a pop-up flash, and lacks the optical viewfinder of the flagship model. The sneaked pics show black and silver-topped models, as well as a previously announced lens, the 18-55 f/2.8-4.0 OIS zoom that has yet to hit the market. No other details, such as price, are available yet, but the model will likely slot behind the X-Pro1 and ahead of the X100 to fill out the retro-look X-family.
