| Weapon Technology - Sukhoi 35Tue, 06 Jan 2009 16:00:24 -0800 by drooped42102http://home.youngest er.com The Su-35 is equipped with the RLSU-27 radar system. The system is composed of the forward-looking N011 slotted-antenna radar and the small N012 rear-looking radar, the latter is located in the central tailboom. Compared to the N001 radar of the basic Su-27 variants, the RLSU-27 radar offers extended target acquisition range, air-to-surface stand-off attack capability, simultaneous tracking of more targets, surveillance and tracking of targets in the rear hemisphere and improved counter ECM. The new radar is also capable of terrain-mapping, enabling nap-of-the-eartch (NOE) and obstacle avoidance. Later it was concluded that the slotted-antenna radar would be outdated soon, and a phased array variant of the N011 radar was developed, designated N011M. The phased array enabled a greater radar range, wider zones of tracking and engagement, increase in number of simultaneously tracked and engaged targets, and the employment of more advanced weapons. Advanced Avionics In addition to the radar, the Su-35 features other advancements in its avionics suite compared to the Su-27. Other principal components were the electro-optical sighting/navigation system, communications suite, instrument guidance equipment, new FBW system, IFF and digital computer. The aircraft is equipped with an advanced self-defence suite consisting of new RWR systems, Sorbtsiya ECM pods, and APP-50 chaff/flare dispenser. Cockpit The instrument panel layout was changed to accomodate three high-res multifuction monochrome CRT displays and an improved HUD, reducing the number of old electro-mechanical instruments needed. Later the Su-35 features multifunction colour LCDs. The IRST sensor was moved to the right off the line of symmetry to improve visibility from the cockpit. The ejection seat was elevated and declined at 30 degrees to enable the pilot to better withstand high G manoeuvring. The pilots wears a helmet with the Shchel-3UM helmet-mounted target designator. Airframe The Su-35 airframe incorporates a new nose section, new central tailboom, canards, and upgraded AL-31FM engines. The wings panels were fitted with larger fuel cells and the enlarged fins have internal fuel cells as well, to increase the aircraft's combat radius. Also the Su-35 has been fitted with an IFR probe and provision to carry two 2,000-litre underwing drop tanks to further extend its range. The aircraft's structure and undercarriage was strengthened to cope with the increased weight of the aircraft caused by the new equipment. The single nose wheel is replaced by two smaller wheels. New Weapons The new systems enabled the Su-35 to be capable of using modern air launched weapons. The most important in the air-to-air role, is the medium-range active radar homing R-77 (export designation is RVV-AE) air-to-air missile, the Russian equivalent of the AIM-120 AMRAAM. A maximum of 12 of these missiles can be carried or 10 when carrying the ECM pods on its wingtips. The Su-35 can also be armed with the older R-27 semi-active radar, R-27E IR homing medium-range missiles as well as the short-range R-60 and R-73 IR homing missiles. The armament now also includes guided air-to-surface missiles and bombs. Aside from the unguided rockets already on the basic Su-27's weapons list, the Su-35 is now also capable of the Kh-29 TV-guided, Kh-31P anti-radiation, and Kh-31A anti-ship missiles. In addition to the increased number of dumb free-fall, incendiary, and cluster bombs, the Su-35 is now also capable of the TV and laser-guided KAB-500 bombs. Multi-Role These new systems and weapons capabilities make the Su-35 a true multi-role fighter. Combined with its large action radius and reasonable price tag, make the Su-35 a good candidate for export. The Su-35 was first shown at Farnborough international air show in 1993. Early attempts included the Su-35 based Su-37MR which was marketed to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), see Su-37 section. After the first series produced Su-35s had been delivered to the Russian Air Force in 1996, development by the Komsomolsk-on-Amur aircraft manufacturing association (KnAAPO) was aimed at meeting the requirements of possible export customers. The new Su-35s would be offered with the AL-31FP TVC engines, which were developed following the successfull Su-37 trials with the first TVC engines, see Su-37 section. The modified Su-35s also feature an open architecture avionics suite incorporating the latest digital computers and display systems. Related: sukhoi 35 russian fighter plane su | |

| REGENERATION a film by Igor Notte blunaturalbrain trailerSun, 04 Jan 2009 09:17:09 -0800 by blunaturalbrainBirth, development and then expansion, decline and at last died. "3" ages of every living organism. The three ages of the human been, like in tha famous picture of Tiziano. Three the basics of the flat figure. And in the "3" the rhythm of Regeneration is stretched. In the beginning it was the pulse of energy, its to expand itself, needing space. Then spread and consolidation. A net of the nets , covering the planet, sucking some the deep energies, transforming the vital lymphs in rhythms, dissonances, agreements, terrible sinphonics electromechanical lyrics. The matter becomes intelligence and this istranslate in forms, structures, movements. The power of the concentration. Too much concentration.The equilibrium is fragmented in thousands. Forgotten poisons emerge from the skin, cells craft, all are corrupted. Hush. Pause. White on white clean what has been. Snow on the earth. And from the snow the bread. A new food. Fourth element: the "3" it enters in un' other dimension. Now, unconsciously, it is tetrade. The energy, a concentrated time, with overwhelmed surprise raises, discovers possible the adjacent one, it reveals the infinity of the spaces. The energy of the mind, the energy of the active intelligence. Related: www.blunaturalbrain.com regeneration video film videoart experimental new media igor notte electronic music | |

| Dirty Harry soundtrack - Schifrin on RhodesFri, 02 Jan 2009 06:30:18 -0800 by danofsydneyThe "End Titles" piece from the Dirty Harry soundtrack (1971)by the incredible Lalo Schifrinplayed on a sweet Rhodes by DanLalo Schifrin is an awesome composer born in Argentina in 1932, studied with Messiaen in France and played and wrote for Dizzy Gillespie. He has a massive number of film soundtracks, numerous orchestral works and solo albums to his credit, he's diverse and prolific and truly one of the great composers!This piece plays at the end of the film as Callahan reflects and contemplates his future. In the Schifrin original the piece also has a saw lead (synth) playing a sort of counterpoint to the Rhodes part. Elements of this piece are in the "Dawn Discovery" cue when the dead girl's body is found earlier in the film and also forms part of the "Finale" in Magnum Force. In Sudden Impact it forms the basis of "San Francisco After Dark" and "This side of Forever" (a vocal version/extension) and finally in the fifth sequel "The Dead Pool" the closing/end credits have a saxophone instrumental jazz version of the piece (with some variation).A Rhodes piano is an electro-mechanical musical instrument, a brand of electric piano first introduced in 1965. Its creator was Harold Rhodes (true!). It is not a synthesizer as the sound-producing mechanism is derived from the concept of an asymmetrical tuning fork - with a stiff wire (called a "tine") struck by a felt-tipped hammer acting as one side of the tuning fork, and a counterbalancing resonating tone bar above the tine acting as the other side. The vibrations are then picked up by an electromagnetic pickup (one for each tine), and amplified. The pickups' output is fed to an amplifier which can be adjusted for volume and tube clipping if desired.The Rhodes has a bell-like character like a glockenspiel but with added "electric warmth". A shimmering pan-oscilation (labelled vibrato on Rhodes pianos) is a built-in effect option and can be heard in "Riders on the Storm" by The Doors as well as numerous Funk, RnB and popular music. Alicia Keys uses one in her "A Woman's Worth" song.All comments welcomeLalo Schifrin Dirty Harry Soundtrack End Titles closing credits end scene film score 88 key Rhodes piano music ost theme cover (FYI John Milius was an uncredited screenwriter for Dirty Harry) Related: lalo schifrin dirty harry soundtrack end titles ost theme closing credits music sweet rhodes piano cover suitcase sad dan plays melancholy reflective scene fender eastwood film score danofsydney | |

| Nikola Tesla - The Forgotten Wizard - Free EnergyFri, 26 Dec 2008 12:13:04 -0800 by kissmytwinkysNikola Tesla (Serbian Cyrillic: ?????? ?????) (10 July 1856 7 January 1943) was an inventor and a mechanical and electrical engineer. Born in Smiljan, Croatian Krajina, Austrian Empire, he was an ethnic Serb subject of the Austrian Empire and later became an American citizen.[2] Tesla is often described as the most important scientist and inventor of the modern age, a man who "shed light over the face of Earth".[3] He is best known for many revolutionary contributions in the field of electricity and magnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla's patents and theoretical work formed the basis of modern alternating current electric power (AC) systems, including the polyphase power distribution systems and the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution. Contemporary biographers of Tesla have regarded him as "The Father of Physics", "The man who invented the twentieth century"[4] and "the patron saint of modern electricity."[5]Afte r his demonstration of wireless communication (radio) in 1894 and after being the victor in the "War of Currents", he was widely respected as one of the greatest electrical engineers who worked in America.[6] Much of his early work pioneered modern electrical engineering and many of his discoveries were of groundbreaking importance. During this period, in the United States, Tesla's fame rivaled that of any other inventor or scientist in history or popular culture,[7] but due to his eccentric personality and his seemingly unbelievable and sometimes bizarre claims about possible scientific and technological developments, Tesla was ultimately ostracized and regarded as a mad scientist.[8][9] Never having put much focus on his finances, Tesla died impoverished at the age of 86.The SI unit measuring magnetic flux density or magnetic induction (commonly known as the magnetic field B), the tesla, was named in his honour (at the Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures, Paris, 1960), as well as the Tesla effect of wireless energy transfer to wirelessly power electronic devices which Tesla demonstrated on a low scale (lightbulbs) as early as 1893 and aspired to use for the intercontinental transmission of industrial energy levels in his unfinished Wardenclyffe Tower project.Aside from his work on electromagnetism and electromechanical engineering, Tesla has contributed in varying degrees to the establishment of robotics, remote control, radar and computer science, and to the expansion of ballistics, nuclear physics,[10] and theoretical physics. In 1943, the Supreme Court of the United States credited him as being the inventor of the radio.[11] Many of his achievements have been used, with some controversy, to support various pseudosciences, UFO theories, and early New Age occultism.Tesla is honored in Serbia and Croatia, as well as in the Czech Republic and Romania. He was awarded the highest order of the White Lion by Czechoslovakia.http: //www.netsense.net/t esla/The life story and work of Nikola Tesla. He invented AC electricity, Neon Lights, Radio transmission, The Electric motor, Wireless electricity transfer, Remote control, Hydraulics, Lasers, Space weapons, Robotics, and many, many more things.As Tesla claimed to have invented a way to harness "free energy" from the voltage difference in the ionosphere that causes lightning, he was seen as a threat to the world energy economy mostly by the rich bankers, J.P. Morgan who was a silent partner with an ulterior agenda. The majority of Tesla's inventions were classified for national security by the US government.A lot of his discoveries in physics have not been released to the public, despite being invented nearly 100 years ago. Other technologies not yet released to the public include HAARP Electromagnetic technology and high energy directed particle beams used in space weapons.Some Electromechanical devices and principles developed by Tesla:* various devices that use rotating magnetic fields (1882)* induction motor and high frequency alternator* means for increasing the intensity of electrical oscillations* alternating current long-distance electrical transmission system (1888)* Tesla coil* blade less turbine* bifilar coil* Telegeodynamics* systems for wireless communication (prior art for the invention of radio) and radio frequency oscillators* robotics and the "AND" logic gate* X-rays Tubes using the bremsstrahlung process* devices for ionized gases* devices for high field emission* devices for charged particle beams* methods for providing extremely low level of resistance to the passage of electrical current* voltage multiplication circuitry* devices for high voltage discharges* devices for lightning protection* Magnifying Transmitter* VTOL aircraft* Dynamic theory of gravity* concepts for electric vehicles Related: tesla coil blade less turbine bifilar telegeodynamicsrobotics and the and logic gate x-rays tubes using bremsstrahlung processionized gases | |
