Start (newspaper) start

Posted on October 21st, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

Start was a short-lived daily tabloid published in Belgrade.

After the commercial failure of his Ekipa sports daily, Radisav Rodic, owner of Kurir and Glas javnosti dailies, decided to give Start a try in late 2005. The first issue hit the stands on November 1, 2005.

Resembling ‘ in many ways, many wondered about the commercial reasoning behind a launch of yet another tabloid (admittedly, a little less sensationalist) in the highly saturated Serbian daily newspaper media market.

Edited by Milka Ljubicic, in addition to running the usual political, culturual, life, and social sections, Start tried to compete by offering expanded sports coverage, something that most Serbian tabloids don’t do. However, it couldn’t keep up and the January 24, 2006 issue turned out to be its last.

Production Bike Racing motorcycle

Posted on October 21st, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

Production Bike Racing is a form of Motorcycle sport that involves racing motorcycles virtually unmodified from those that can be bought in shops and then ridden on public highways.

The most common subcategory is the 250 cc production bike class, in which “race-replica” motorcycles that superficially resemble Grand Prix machines but have engines capable of meeting legal and reliability requirements for street use, have their road equipment ripped off and are raced.

Because each bike offers virtually identical performance, and because they are relatively cheap to buy and race, it is a popular introductory racing category, particularly in Australia.

Traditional engineering start

Posted on October 18th, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

Traditional engineering, also known as sequential engineering, is the process of marketing, engineering design, manufacturing, testing and production where each stage of the development process is carried out separately, and the next stage cannot start until the previous stage is finished. Therefore the information flow is only in one direction, and it is not until the end of the chain that errors, changes and corrections can be relayed to the start of the sequence, causing estimated costs to be under predicted. This can cause many problems; such as time consumption due to many modifications being made as each stage does not take into account the next. This method is hardly used today, as the concept of concurrent engineering is more efficient.

Erv Kanemoto motorcycle

Posted on October 18th, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

Erv Kanemoto (Born May 7, 1943 in Utah) is known as a World Champion motorcycle mechanic and motorcycle race team owner. The son of a farmer, he began boat racing as a child then switched to tuning karts raced by his sister.

He was hired as a race mechanic by Kawasaki in 1968 and became famous for his partnership with motorcycle racer Gary Nixon when they won the 1973 U.S. Road Racing National Championship aboard a temperamental and brutally fast Kawasaki H2R, a 750cc three cylinder, two-stroke.

When Nixon retired in 1979, Kanemoto joined a young up and coming road racer named Freddie Spencer and won the U.S. 250cc Roadracing National Championship with a Yamaha. He spent the 1980 season with Spencer before moving to Europe in 1981 to be a Yamaha mechanic for former 500cc World Champion Barry Sheene.

He is perhaps best known for the World Championships won with Spencer for the Honda Grand Prix team in 1983 and 1985 when Spencer accomplished the double by winning both the 250cc and the 500cc Roadracing World Championships in the same year, a feat once common but rare by this time.

He joined forces with Eddie Lawson in 1989 to win another 500cc World Championship for Honda. Kanemoto also won 250cc World Championships for Honda in 1991 and 1992 with Luca Cadalora as the rider, and in 1997 with Max Biaggi as the rider.

In 2001 Kanemoto was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. Kanemoto is currently still involved in motorcycle Grand Prix racing.

Briscoe starter

Posted on October 17th, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

The Briscoe was an American automobile manufactured at Jackson, Michigan by a group headed by Benjamin Briscoe.

A few months after his departure from the United States Motor Company in 1913, Benjamin Briscoe established a manufacturing plant at Billancourt, France to design and manufacture the first automobile in France built by American methods. The business was called Briscoe Freres; Billancourt was the home of Renault.

In 1915, Briscoe offered what he called “The First French Car at an American Price.” Briscoe claimed that the auto had been designed by a French design studio. It featured a single headlamp in the front, faired into the radiator shell. The auto was priced at $750.00 but this price did not include a top, windshield, or starter.

The company also produced the Argo, the Hackett, and the Lorraine.

Straight-14 engine

Posted on October 16th, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

A straight-14 engine is a straight engine with fourteen cylinders. A straight-14 is a very long engine, and therefore only used for large ships.

The only engine of this type known to have been built is a member of the Wärtsilä-Sulzer RTA96-C family. It is a huge 2-stroke Diesel unit for use in container ships. The engine became well-known due to photos taken at the Aioi Works in Japan and spread through blogs.

The 14-cylinder version of this modular engine displaces 25,480 L (1,556,002 in³) with a 38 in (.965 m) bore and 98 in (2.5 m) stroke. The engine is 89 ft (27.1 m) long, 44 ft (13.4 m) high, and weighs 2,300 tonnes (2 300 000 kg). Power output is 108,920 hp (80,080 kW) at 102 rpm. It also produces 5,608,312 ft.lbf (7,603,749 Nm) of torque at that speed.

If built, the 14-cylinder variant of the MAN B&W K108ME-C would be even larger at nearly 33 meters long, and over 2,800 tonnes, and more powerful at 136,000 hp (97,300 kW).

Resnik (crater) be smaller and

Posted on October 16th, 2007 in Uncategorized by admin

Resnik is a small lunar crater that is located within the interior of the huge Apollo impact basin, on the Moon’s far side. Apollo is a double-ringed formation with a central floor that has been flooded with basaltic-lava. Resnik is located at the northern edge of the dark area of the surface. It lies to the southwest of the smaller McAuliffe crater.

This is a roughly circular, bowl-shaped crater. Overlaying the northwestern rim is a smaller, cup-shaped impact crater with a higher albedo than Resnik. A small, partly submerged crater is attached to the exterior along the southern rim, and a portion of a submerged crater rim lies just to the east of this feature along the same rim.
