This space is reserved for your B&W or greyscale images. Give us your best shots! Gerry Smerchanski of the Winnipeg Centre adopted the hard way to record the crater Vieta on September 27 last year. Gerry combined paper and pencil at the end of a Celestron Ultima 8 with a binoviewer at 200× to capture the crater with its small central hill and off-centre craterlet. Gerry notes that “Crater Vieta usually gets overlooked by me as it is near Gassendi, which is a favourite of mine. But the lighting was perfect to go from Gassendi down along an arc of dramatically lit craters—including Cavendish—to Vieta where the terminator was found.” Vieta is 80 km in diameter with 4500-m walls on the west side and 3000-m walls to the east. To the southeast lies the crater Fourier. Michael Gatto caught the elusive “Werner X” during its few hours of visibility on November 20 from 9 to 9:45 p.m. Michael used an 8-inch f/7.5 Newtonian on a Dob mounting from Dartmouth, N.S., in average-to-poor seeing. The sketch was done at the eyepiece with various pencils and a blending stump on paper, then scanned and darkened in Photoshop.

  • Alan Milstein's History of Computers
    Alan Milstein's History of Computers CYBERCHRONOLOGY INTRODUCTION This chronology reflects the vision that the history of computers is the history of humankind. Computing is not just calculating; it is thinking, learning, and communicating. This Cyberchronolgy is a history of two competing paths, the outcome of which may ultimately determine our fate. Computers either are simply machines to be controlled by the powerful, by governments and industrial giants, and by the Masters of War, or they are the tools that will allow every human being to achieve his or her potential and to unite for a common purpose. Day One Earliest humans use pebbles to calculate, a word derived from the Latin for “pebble” 17th century B.C. Wolf’s jawbone carved with 55 notches in groups of five, first evidence of tally system 8500 B.C. Bone carved with notches in groups of prime numbers 5th century B.C.

Printed in USA 20M 0809 State All products are subject to change without notice. 2010 2 TO BE THE FIRST For over a century, Shakespeare has established a winning tradition of getting there first with the best. This is particularly evident today as some antenna manufacturers promote “innovations,” which Shakespeare pioneered years ago and now regards as standard features. Take, for example, low angle of radiation. Shakespeare engineers developed unique low angle techniques in marine antennas in the 1960s and built them into many of our models. Or, fiberglass radomes. Hand-soldered connections. Brass and copper elements for maximum range and efficiency. Metal ferrules for more demanding conditions. Ultra smooth, extra durable, polyurethane finishes. UV stable, low loss coax cable. All were introduced, and remain superior, in Shakespeare antennas. TO BE THE LEADER From day one, our dedicated research and development engineers have continued to innovate and apply the sophisticated electrical engineering that begins the Shakespeare winning tradition. Using only the very best materials, our skilled master craftsmen hand solder, hand assemble and hand finish each individual antenna. Quality control is a constant within each area. Our exclusive white fiberglass seals out moisture, prevents corrosion and provides years of trouble-free operation. Brass and copper elements ensure that each antenna will operate efficiently and effectively for maximum range. Lastly, reliability is further assured through extensive testing on our own high-tech test range. Boaters worldwide have known and trusted Shakespeare innovation, performance, quality and reliability for many years.

    20052005 ProductProduct CatalogCatalog Scanners & Accessories for Public Safety, News Media, Race Scanning & the Radio Hobbyist 1-800-SCANNER | POLICESCANNERS.COM SCANNERS | Background and Uses Why Scanners? Communications monitoring has been a hobby, business and a function of government ever since radio was first developed. Scanners, also known as Police Scanners, which were developed in the 1960s and quickly blossomed in the '70s, allow multiple public safety communications channels to be rapidly "scanned" or checked for activity (public safety transmissions are not continuous - unlike AM-FM and TV broadcasts). The timing of the invention of the scanner could not have been better. Civil unrest in the U.S. at the time, as well as a general interest in learning more about local police and fire operations, helped grow the business. Soon police departments were using scanners to supplement their two-way radio systems; volunteer fire- fighters began using scanners to monitor their department's radio traffic; reporters were using scanners to get their stories; and radio hobbyists were using scanners for the challenge and fun of monitoring radio communications systems. Today scanners serve the same purpose law enforcement, the news media and radio buffs, and for average Americans who, concerned for their personal and neighborhood safety, for reasons of crime, or more impor- tantly today, terrorism, want to stay informed. Key users and uses of scanners include: Public Safety Patrol cars and dispatch centers use scanners to monitor, and cross-communicate with, neighboring police and fire departments. In today’s world scanners can provide critical communications "interoperability.” News Media Photographers, videographers, reporters and assignment desk editors use scanners to learn of breaking news stories the moment they happen.
