The escape to Sweden
On the northern coast of Zealand, approximately 30 miles from Copenhagen, The Gilleleje Museum tells the story of how 7,200 Jewish refugees escaped to Sweden.
The population of Gilleleje responded to the call to assist the refugees on the night of October 1st and early hours of October 2nd 1943. Word had leaked from the offices of the German occupiers to the Danish resistance that the country's Jews were to be rounded up and taken to...
* Wonk (colloquial American English) was originally a 1960s slang word applied to an excessively studious person (equivalent to "grind" or "nerd"). The origins of the term are obscure. It has been described as a simple reversal of "know," linked to an obscure Old English word, and attributed to Royal Navy slang for a learned but inexperienced midshipman
* Policy wonk, presumably from the above, is someone knowledgeable about and fascinated by...
The first, the Super Guppy, or "SG", was built directly from the fuselage of a C-97J Turbo Stratocruiser, the military version of the Boeing 377. The fuselage was lengthened to 141 feet (43 m), and ballooned out to a maximum inside diameter of 25 ft...

This site is located at the end of Morrison Canyon Road in Alameda County, Ca. While the site has 24 and 7 security, I don't believe the area is intended to be very secret or secure. Occasionally the site will get mentioned in the local press, but ESL provides no information on the mission of the site. The land next to the site is now owned by the...

You are right, strange I tried it before, did something wrong I guess.
Any clue what they are anyway ? I send out a question to the local newspaper but no reaction yet.
3.3
Proposed design
The system should consist of three sites, laid out in a
rough triangle with baselines N-S and E-W. The main
antenna should have a total collecting area of5000 m
2
and the satellite antennas2000 m
2
. The sites should
ideally lie some 300-400 km apart. The frequency of
operation favoured is 327 MHz, a protected radio band
and thus unlikely to experience serious interference
and ideally suited...
Reading this I can't find a clue to the large (8?) antenna array. According to above pdf it is small. Further pdf about an array on ascension are for sale ??. These kind of antenna's don't look big. Anyone has holiday pictures with local snaps of how it looks.? (Yeah, I was there last week...) unexplained I guess ?
Ascension Island hosts one of three ground antennas (others are on Kwajalein and Diego Garcia) that assist in the operation of the Global Positioning System (GPS) navigational system.
The final live performance by the band, recorded (and filmed) on January 30, 1969 on top of the Apple Building at 3 Savile Row, London. The full performance included the following songs: "Get Back #1", "Get Back #2", "Don't Let Me Down #1", "I've Got A Feeling #1", "One After 909", "Dig A Pony", "God Save The Queen" (which has surfaced on the German bootleg On the Rooftop), "I've Got A Feeling #2", "Don't Let Me Down #2", and "Get Back #3".

Porto Santo is located 50 Kms. north-east of Funchal.
The island is amazingly different from the island of Madeira. There is almost no vegetation at all. The southern coast is bordered by a 9 Kms. long beach with golden, soft sand.
The temperature in the sea is 18-23 ºC (64,4-73,4 ºF) throughout the year.
Tourists seek to Porto Santo to enjoy a relaxing holiday of tranquility. The isolation permits the island to keep some of the old traditions of...
Actually I don't think it was a swing bridge, if you look way up upstream you can see simular structures beneeth other bridges. Altough on the pilar could have been a rest for a swing bridge anyway.

It doesn't matter much to me
