THE OLD MAN he golden thread running through much of this issue of Popular Mechanics is Things My Father Taught Me. From life lessons Tto basic life skills, appropriately we celebrate Dadly wisdom – particularly given our proximity to Father’s Day. As the son of a photojournalist, it’s safe to say that an important lesson I learnt from my old man was to avoid clichés like the plague. It just so happens that I, too, am a father. In my time, I attempted to teach our daughter many things: how to make a kite, ride a bike, drive a car. Some of my teachings clearly stuck. What we have now is a grown woman who is confidently able to a) tell me to go fly a kite b) order me to get on my bike and the hell out of here and c) drive me insane. When I pointed out that I was trying to teach more a way of thinking than an actual motor skill, I discovered there was something you could learn from your offspring: how to roll your eyeballs until only the whites showed. The man pictured alongside with me isn’t my father, by the way. On a three-week visit to South Africa, Tim Leatherman swung by RamsayMedia to talk about his eponymous multitools. Our paths first crossed when he visited three years ago and I have his dated autograph engraved on the flank of my Super Tool to prove it. This time around, he engraved the other side to restore the balance. Look out for that interview with Tim, by associate editor Lindsey Schutters, in a coming issue – and by the way, don’t forget to visit our YouTube channel to view the video we shot of Tim in action. Although “action” sounds a little excessive as a description of a laconic man whose movements are measured and who serves his wit extra dry. Tim could justifiably claim to be the father of the modern multitool as we know it. The story of how he created the tool out of necessity while on holiday has already passed into legend.

Broyles Special Activities and Innovation Operations Evaluation Group Copyright © 2017 CNA Abstract The military is on the cusp of a major technological revolution, in which warfare is conducted by unmanned and increasingly autonomous weapon systems. However, unlike the last “sea change,” during the Cold War, when advanced technologies were developed primarily by the Department of Defense (DoD), the key technology enablers today are being developed mostly in the commercial world. This study looks at the state-of-the-art of AI, machine-learning, and robot technologies, and their potential future military implications for autonomous (and semi-autonomous) weapon systems. While no one can predict how AI will evolve or predict its impact on the development of military autonomous systems, it is possible to anticipate many of the conceptual, technical, and operational challenges that DoD will face as it increasingly turns to AI-based technologies.

He is perhaps best known for appearing as if from nowhere and landing a starring role as the sinister Wikus Van De Merwe in the 2009 Oscar-nominated movie District 9, directed by Neill Blomkamp. He is playing Captain “Howling Mad” Murdock in The A-Team, slated for release in June 2010. He is also a director, writer, producer, and visual effects producer with many films and television programs to his credit. In short, when it comes to filmmaking, Sharlto Copley does it all. From the very beginning of his career, Adobe Premiere Pro software has been his choice for non-linear editing. “I’ve always been a big fan of Adobe Premiere Pro,” says Copley. “It was the first software to break the mold and deliver timeline-based editing. Adobe Premiere Pro transformed the industry and outclassed old-style systems that force you to think about A and B roll and toggle between windows. It was a different school of thought—one that supports the fluid way today’s new filmmaking breed thinks.” “Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 is so incredibly stable—and with native 64-bit support, I found myself sitting there saying ‘Wow’ at its amazing performance.” Sharlto Copley Actor and filmmaker Challenge An Adobe Premiere Pro veteran • Gain more creative control in Copley has used Adobe Premiere Pro for years, but he is more devoted and enthusiastic than ever now filmmaking that he is using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.

  • District 9 – a Little Known Fact About the Faculty of Veterinary Science and the Movie
    District 9 – A little known fact about the Faculty of Veterinary Science and the movie By CvB Posted on 28 August 2009 Image: D-9.com District 9, the new film by the renowned film producer and Oscar-winning director, Peter Jackson, who was responsible for the production and special effects of movies such as King Kong and Lord of the Rings, is released on the big screen by Ster Kinekor today. Not many people know that some of the scenes for the movie were filmed at the Faculty of Veterinary Science of the University of Pretoria in December 2008. The filming involved one of its Anatomy halls that was converted in a sci-fi biomedical laboratory with, among other things, a space-technology sliding door, and the Anatomy museum, while some equipment from the Onderstepoort Veterinary Academic Hospital (OVAH) and the Biomedical Research Centre were also utilized. A pulsating atmosphere existed on the set in the week during which actors, crew-members and technical personnel spent time on the campus while life-like 7-feet aliens were ‘hanging around’. The movie not only features some South African settings but is mainly set in Johannesburg as the city that is being invaded by aliens from space. As we all know, South African born Neill Blomkamp, who was also present on the set during filming at the campus, was the Director while fellow South African, Sharlto Copley, plays the lead role. According to the preliminary reviews by critics this promises to be an excellent movie with amazing special effects that were executed to perfection.

    THERE’S A NEW MO’ IN TOWN! Wednesday November 24: First it was Mr. T, now Mr. E is standing up for men’s rights to sport a Mohawk! The newly crowned Mr England, Vaughan Bailey, has joined forces with The A-Team and celebrity groomer Jason Shankey to ensure November is the month of the Mohawk! Thanks to all-action hardman BA Baracus in The A-Team and a whole host of manly celebrities, from Jared Leto to David Beckham, more and more British men are getting Mo’d up, as ‘the Hawk’ makes its mark as one of the styles for 2011. First sported by Mr T in the original A-Team series, it has taken Mr. England to re-launch the funky cut, inspired by the new film version of The A-Team. Bailey, who was crowned Mr England in September, went from Hobo to Hunk, having been plucked from a life on the streets to be crowned Mr. England, and cites BA Baracus as one of his inspirations. Now he is fronting the campaign with celebrity groomer Jason Shankey, who is offering free Mohawks to anyone feeling manly enough to ask for a ‘BA’ on Friday 26 November. All those who take up the offer will also be rewarded with £5 off the A-Team on Blu-ray when it is released on Monday 29th November. Shankey, whose Fulham salon sees some of London’s coolest celebrities through its doors in London’s most happening district, has seen a huge rise in the demand for Mohawks this year.
