kids clothing expands to fit as children grow This children's clothing line designed by Royal College of Art graduate Ryan Mario Yasin has a pleat system that lets garments stretch to fit even after growth spurts. Yasin created Petit Pli after buying clothes for his nephew which no longer fit by the time they turned up. He used his background as an aeronautical engineer to devise a set of permanent folds that let clothes 'unpack' when pulled, as children get bigger. The collection features waterproof and windproof outwear, sized to fit children aged 6 to 36 months. The designer hopes that by creating kids clothes that last longer, this will help towards reducing the huge amount of waste generated by the garment industry.
Crazyswarm: a large nano-quadcopter swarm Crazyswarm is a swarm of 49 Crazyflie 2.0 nano-quadcopters operating in a new experimental robotics building at USC. We localize the quadcopters with a Vicon motion-capture system and a custom object tracker that supports identical marker arrangements. Three shared radios broadcast position updates at 100Hz and send high-level trajectory commands to each vehicle. Vicon-IMU sensor fusion, trajectory evaluation, and position control are all performed onboard at 500Hz. The rotating pyramid demo is built from ellipse commands. The USC letters demo is built from point-to-point commands with each vehicle planning fifth-order polynomial trajectories onboard. A Python scripting layer controls the overall sequence of events. A forthcoming publication from our group will describe the components of this system, the platform constraints, tradeoffs, and the associated design decisions in detail.

The forces were not in favor of a maniac - she literally pushed the would-be rapist of the elevator, ran back to the cabin and began to frantically press the button of closing doors. But the offender at the last moment changed his mind to hide - and, as in horror movies, is back in the elevator. But he got a new portion of the blows. He tried to speak with the victim, showing her gestures to be quiet, but eventually gave up and retreated. She called for the number of security systems, but no trace of the perpetrator.

PETROL MINI V8 engine This engine was built at the beginning of my career, Engine Building. I got the casts and drawings as a Christmas gift from my wife. Work on the engine lasted for about five months. This engine generates the most interest in the exhibitions. This led to the fact that I had to restore it twice due to wear. He had some serious shortcomings. Rods were bronze, which quickly wore out. They have been replaced by aluminum. Pistons were redesigned, added rings made by the method of George Trimble. Added electrical system start-up, allowing the engine to run at the touch of a button. Author: Ron Column Specifications: Ignition ............................

Apple uses spite to force planned obsolescence. Watch $750 tier 4 repair performed with $2 in parts. At the Apple store, this is a tier 4 repair which is $750. I am going to perform this repair with $2 of parts on camera live so you can see for yourself just what nonsense it is that Apple goes above and beyond to keep independent service centers from repairing their products. I will discuss the challenges we face and show you specific examples, and show you how those challenges negatively affect our ability to offer a better value to the consumer. My store is located in one of the most expensive geographic areas of the United States. Taking this into consideration, we are still half the price of Apple tier 4 repair for this particular machine. I respect the free market and I respect other repair center's right to charge less if they wish. I WANT to see more out there performing this work so that consumers have a choice other than being bent over at the Genius bar or throwing away their devices. This starts with the manufacturers not going out of their way to spite the independent service center.
Europe is Kaput. Long live Europe! –; Slavoj Žižek, Yanis Varoufakis and Julian Assange –; full event Content warning: adult language. Philosopher Slavoj Žižek and former Greek finance minister, Yanis Varoufakis and Wikileaks founder Julian Assange discuss Europe’s future. With the recent economic crisis in Greece, unprecedented challenges to centralised European policy, and the lack of consensus on the ongoing refugee crisis, many would agree that Europe faces its greatest ever predicament. Slavoj Žižek, regarded as ‘the most dangerous philosopher in the West’ (The New Republic), and Yanis Varoufakis, self-described ‘erratic Marxist’ and economic ‘rock-star’ (Business Insider and other publications), met in Croatia in 2013. They have never appeared together on the public stage – until now. Take your seat to hear them discuss the urgent task of building a different and more democratic Europe. The conversation explores the contradictions of late capitalism and some of the solutions that might just save the European project. It is moderated by Croatian philosopher Srecko Horvat.
