The Secret Labs of WWII: Innovations in Warfare

World War II was a conflict fought on battlefields, in the skies, and across the oceans. But it was also a war fought in the shadows, in laboratories hidden away from prying eyes, where brilliant minds raced against time to develop technologies that could turn the tide of the conflict. These “secret labs” were hotbeds of innovation, where scientists, engineers, and researchers worked on projects…

antwerppriddde

ein ganzes jahr ist es schon her als ich den richtig geilen sommer hier in antwerpen hatte und aufm pride truck mit allen war und ich so in die ciddy und die leute verliebt habe. das festival läuft zwar aktuell immernoch aber die pride week ist schon die ereignisreichste woche an dem ganzen festival. es war echt komisch dieses jahr mal nicht so komplett eingebundet zu sein, habe ja schließlich auch nur das filmprogramm kuratiert. das eröffnungsdinner, die vernissage, das war alles ganz cute am mittwoch bin ich dann nachdem ich aus brüssel zurückkam mit dem rad bis zum rivierenhof geradelt, erstmal verfahren aber doch noch schnell kontakte während der fahrt geknüpft und das opening mit den festival peeps genossen. dann aber auch recht müde mit vural zurück. donnerstag dann echt ko gewesen, nach der arbeit noch schnell zur kbc und dann ins de studio. exhibition und das dream concert von parisa madani wo ich halbwegs einschlafen konnte. am freitag kam lea dann zu besuch, es ging zum zweiten queer lab evening mit andré uerba und madmozelle, anschließend absacker im patine. samstag dann auf die pride parade mit desi bas und ros, mal ne andere perspektive, dann etwas vorm cut gedanced, pizza genossen (so ein classy pride dingen) dann in stadspark oh honey, zu hause gechillt, aufi zum pride village und dann DOCH spontan zu send in the clowns und es war ne richtig gute und tolle party - ich hatte so eine tolle zeit! die performances waren gut, die musik war der hammer, alle waren da, koen, gern, EYU mal wiedergesehen und so tolle gespräche mit ihm gehabt GO WITH THE FLOW AND SEE WHERE IT TAKES YOU AND WHAT IT BRINGS das ist ein super advice. das war echt toll, bin so froh eyu, gert und koen hier zu haben bzw zu kennen, auch wenn die älter sind. insbesondere für koen bin ich dankbar, das ist ein echt lieber freund. in my mind i'm fluent in italian. BAS UND DESI, auch so dankbar dass ich mit desi zusammenwohnen durfte, war so weird gestern wieder in der bude zu sein. ZOE LEA JILL dann noch den dude von der lesung getroffen, den bram wo ich mal gewohnt habe, geminglet, neue leute kennengelernt, das war echt cool und schön, und dann bis um halb 5 getanzt. heute sehr entspannt. andy und vitrin, meine zwei favs probably. was soll ich sagen. pride week rum, festival läuft noch etwas an. ich bin heute ganz woanders als da wo ich vor nem jahr war. aber ich bin an dem ort wo ich vor einem jahr sein wollte. an it worked out. and let's see where it goes. vielleicht schaffe ich es bald nochmal mehr routine in alles reinzubekommen. doch noch NL zu lernen, das schwimmbad macht wieder auf. der sommer ist aber auch zurück, vielleicht kann ich dann auch endlich das erste mal in diesem jahr zum boekenberg, mich in die sonne legen mit nem buch. freue mich auf die woche. easy und entspannt. tat richtig gut. freu mich.

The long and glorious life of the temporary Building 20

During World War II in 1943, a timber three-floor structure was hastily erected on the central campus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). As one of its architects, George McCreery, said, the life of the building was supposed to be for the duration of the war and six months thereafter. It was indicated as Building 20 among the other temporary structures built there and became a home for the Radiation Laboratory, or Rad Lab, which works made a significant influence on science during WWII.

The war ended, and the Rad Lab shut down. But the student enrollments increased in the university, and the temporary structures continued to serve the university needs in post-war times. Building 20 had been used for workshops, offices, and labs, and its occupants utilized their environment in ways that would not be tolerated in a permanent building.

Eventually, Building 20 became the “magical incubator” for many remarkable projects and startups. MIT professor Jerome Y. Lettvin called it the procreative “womb” of the institute. Some of the famous occupants in Building 20 were the LIGO gravitational-wave antenna project, the Strobe Lab of high-speed photography trailblazer Harold "Doc" Edgerton, and the “father of modern linguistics” Noam Chomsky.

Building 20 had been operating for 55 years until it was demolished in 1998. It was one of the longest-surviving World War II temporary structures on the MIT campus.

Bottom line:

Sometimes temporary is the most permanent not because it's the most solid, but because it is the most adaptive. If you try to solve an immediate problem with an immediate solution, it can last for decades. But if you try to solve a 5-month problem with a 50-year solution it will most often get torn down in 5 months.

Possibly over a trillion dollars has been spent.  Hundreds of applicable patents have been filed.  Thousands of papers have been published. It's called the New Manhattan Project and just like the original Manhattan Project, you're not supposed to know about it.  We all paid for it, but we also paid for a gigantic disinformation campaign designed to keep us as mushrooms; in the dark and covered in manure.   Please read  “Chemtrails Exposed: Truly a new Manhattan Project.” and learn about where the New Manhattan Project comes from, who put it together and who is doing it today.  No other single book gives you the detailed history and current state of this Project like "Chemtrails Exposed."   Pre-Rad Lab Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) probably first conceived of the plans to manipulate the weather with electromagnetic energy which eventually grew into what the author calls today’s New Manhattan Project (NMP).   Although the author has been unable to verify direct documentary evidence showing his hand, other circumstantial evidence strongly suggests it.

Tesla did a great deal of theorizing about weather control and he specifically theorized about using directed energy to manipulate the atmosphere.  Bernard Eastlund (1938-2007), the inventor of today’s most significant, powerful, and versatile electromagnetic energy generator (the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Project or HAARP), attributed its fundamental technologies to Tesla.  There are many of these so-called ‘ionospheric heaters’ all around the world today being used to manipulate the weather as part of the NMP.  Also, when Tesla died, huge quantities of his effects (most notably his scientific papers and instruments) were confiscated by the United States government.   Among these confiscated papers may have been the initial New Manhattan Project plans. The timing is right.  As noted above, Tesla died in 1943, then just three years later, Bernard Vonnegut (who later went on to conduct early NMP field experiments) and two other General Electric (GE) scientists were simultaneously kicking-off the scientific era of weather control and the New Manhattan Project.  The three years plus between Tesla’s death and GE’s famous exploits would be plenty of time to review Tesla’s material and make plans for the future.  The MIT Rad Lab was already well at work on related technologies.

Most curiously though, the scientific expert charged with reviewing Nikola Tesla’s posthumously confiscated papers was a Radiation Lab Steering Committee member and Assistant Director by the name of John G. Trump (1907-1985).  For our military, John G. Trump translated the Tesla papers from Scientist to English.  Our military, in turn, decided which of Tesla’s ideas were of military value and thus worthy of further exploration.  John G. Trump went on to serve as the head of the British Branch of the MIT Radiation Laboratory.  If you are wondering… yes, John G. Trump was the uncle of the new United States President Donald J. Trump.  In fact, The Donald’s middle name of ‘John’ was given to him in honor of his uncle.

I Found This Interesting. Joshua Damien Cordle

Cosmic rays may soon stymie quantum computing

The practicality of quantum computing hangs on the integrity of the quantum bit, or qubit.

Qubits, the logic elements of quantum computers, are coherent two-level systems that represent quantum information. Each qubit has the strange ability to be in a quantum superposition, carrying aspects of both states simultaneously, enabling a quantum version of parallel computation. Quantum computers, if they can be scaled to accommodate many qubits on one processor, could be dizzyingly faster, and able to handle far more complex problems, than today's conventional computers.

But that all depends on a qubit's integrity, or how long it can operate before its superposition and the quantum information are lost -- a process called decoherence, which ultimately limits the computer run-time. Superconducting qubits -- a leading qubit modality today -- have achieved exponential improvement in this key metric, from less than one nanosecond in 1999 to around 200 microseconds today for the best-performing devices.

But researchers at MIT, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have found that a qubit's performance will soon hit a wall. In a paper published in Nature, the team reports that the low-level, otherwise harmless background radiation that is emitted by trace elements in concrete walls and incoming cosmic rays are enough to cause decoherence in qubits. They found that this effect, if left unmitigated, will limit the performance of qubits to just a few milliseconds.

Given the rate at which scientists have been improving qubits, they may hit this radiation-induced wall in just a few years. To overcome this barrier, scientists will have to find ways to shield qubits -- and any practical quantum computers -- from low-level radiation, perhaps by building the computers underground or designing qubits that are tolerant to radiation's effects.

"These decoherence mechanisms are like an onion, and we've been peeling back the layers for past 20 years, but there's another layer that left unabated is going to limit us in a couple years, which is environmental radiation," says William Oliver, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science and Lincoln Laboratory Fellow at MIT. "This is an exciting result, because it motivates us to think of other ways to design qubits to get around this problem."

The paper's lead author is Antti Vepsäläinen, a postdoc in MIT's Research Laboratory of Electronics.

"It is fascinating how sensitive superconducting qubits are to the weak radiation. Understanding these effects in our devices can also be helpful in other applications such as superconducting sensors used in astronomy," Vepsäläinen says.

Co-authors at MIT include Amir Karamlou, Akshunna Dogra, Francisca Vasconcelos, Simon Gustavsson, and physics professor Joseph Formaggio, along with David Kim, Alexander Melville, Bethany Niedzielski, and Jonilyn Yoder at Lincoln Laboratory, and John Orrell, Ben Loer, and Brent VanDevender of PNNL.

A cosmic effect

Superconducting qubits are electrical circuits made from superconducting materials. They comprise multitudes of paired electrons, known as Cooper pairs, that flow through the circuit without resistance and work together to maintain the qubit's tenuous superposition state. If the circuit is heated or otherwise disrupted, electron pairs can split up into "quasiparticles," causing decoherence in the qubit that limits its operation.

There are many sources of decoherence that could destabilize a qubit, such as fluctuating magnetic and electric fields, thermal energy, and even interference between qubits.

Scientists have long suspected that very low levels of radiation may have a similar destabilizing effect in qubits.

"I the last five years, the quality of superconducting qubits has become much better, and now we're within a factor of 10 of where the effects of radiation are going to matter," adds Kim, a technical staff member at MIT Lincoln Laboratotry.

So Oliver and Formaggio teamed up to see how they might nail down the effect of low-level environmental radiation on qubits. As a neutrino physicist, Formaggio has expertise in designing experiments that shield against the smallest sources of radiation, to be able to see neutrinos and other hard-to-detect particles.

"Calibration is key"

The team, working with collaborators at Lincoln Laboratory and PNNL, first had to design an experiment to calibrate the impact of known levels of radiation on superconducting qubit performance. To do this, they needed a known radioactive source -- one which became less radioactive slowly enough to assess the impact at essentially constant radiation levels, yet quickly enough to assess a range of radiation levels within a few weeks, down to the level of background radiation.

The group chose to irradiate a foil of high purity copper. When exposed to a high flux of neutrons, copper produces copious amounts of copper-64, an unstable isotope with exactly the desired properties.

"Copper just absorbs neutrons like a sponge," says Formaggio, who worked with operators at MIT's Nuclear Reactor Laboratory to irradiate two small disks of copper for several minutes. They then placed one of the disks next to the superconducting qubits in a dilution refrigerator in Oliver's lab on campus. At temperatures about 200 times colder than outer space, they measured the impact of the copper's radioactivity on qubits' coherence while the radioactivity decreased -- down toward environmental background levels.

The radioactivity of the second disk was measured at room temperature as a gauge for the levels hitting the qubit. Through these measurements and related simulations, the team understood the relation between radiation levels and qubit performance, one that could be used to infer the effect of naturally occurring environmental radiation. Based on these measurements, the qubit coherence time would be limited to about 4 milliseconds.

"Not game over"

The team then removed the radioactive source and proceeded to demonstrate that shielding the qubits from the environmental radiation improves the coherence time. To do this, the researchers built a 2-ton wall of lead bricks that could be raised and lowered on a scissor lift, to either shield or expose the refrigerator to surrounding radiation.

"We built a little castle around this fridge," Oliver says.

Every 10 minutes, and over several weeks, students in Oliver's lab alternated pushing a button to either lift or lower the wall, as a detector measured the qubits' integrity, or "relaxation rate," a measure of how the environmental radiation impacts the qubit, with and without the shield. By comparing the two results, they effectively extracted the impact attributed to environmental radiation, confirming the 4 millisecond prediction and demonstrating that shielding improved qubit performance.

"Cosmic ray radiation is hard to get rid of," Formaggio says. "It's very penetrating, and goes right through everything like a jet stream. If you go underground, that gets less and less. It's probably not necessary to build quantum computers deep underground, like neutrino experiments, but maybe deep basement facilities could probably get qubits operating at improved levels."

Going underground isn't the only option, and Oliver has ideas for how to design quantum computing devices that still work in the face of background radiation.

"If we want to build an industry, we'd likely prefer to mitigate the effects of radiation above ground," Oliver says. "We can think about designing qubits in a way that makes them 'rad-hard,' and less sensitive to quasiparticles, or design traps for quasiparticles so that even if they're constantly being generated by radiation, they can flow away from the qubit. So it's definitely not game-over, it's just the next layer of the onion we need to address."

This research was funded, in part, by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Physics, the U.S. Army Research Office, the U.S. Department of Defense, and the U.S. National Science Foundation.

Trump`s Grandfather Worked Under John D. Rockefeller, Uncle Translated Tesla`s Stolen Work

Before you trust a power gamer, checked out up on their history.

The history, family members, and associations of a power player are essential requirement information, if an individual genuinely wants to understand who they are and also what they do.

Since we're required to manage Head of state Donald Trump, let's have a look at what he was born right into. He inherited numerous bucks from his US military associated real estate baron father, Fred Trump.

His uncle, John G. Trump, was an engineer functioning with the military commercial complex associated school MIT, as well as examined fantastic engineer Nikola Tesla's stolen documents after his death.

Donald Trump's grandfather Frederick Trump was an immigrant from Germany to the US. Fred and John G. Trump inherited the structure of their chance from Frederick.

Frederick Trump had issues with immigration in his life time, and was denied the ability to again become a German resident, after leaving to the US to evade army service (not that there is anything incorrect with staying clear of offering in the armed force of a federal government you do not think in).

At the age of 16, in 1885 Friedrich Trump landed in New York after emigrating from Kallstadt, Germany. He succeeded in the Pacific Northwest during the gold-rush era, selling dining establishment rooms with prostitutes and alcohol to miners attempting to find gold.

He functioned under the direction of John D. Rockefeller's investment near Seattle in the last years of the 1800's. Inning accordance with a write-up by researcher Gwenda Blair released in Politician:

"Friedrich Trump's Seattle restaurant flourished, however he maintained his ears open-- another aspect of the Trump household MO. In 1894, he listened to that John D. Rockefeller, the wealthiest male in the world, was moneying a mining procedure in a little community north of Seattle called Monte Cristo. Without delay, Trump scoped out the very best place there, secured it by submitting a fraudulent mineral case, developed a resort on the parcel even though it didn't really belong to him, and also started offering the clients, again, exactly just what they wanted: plenty to eat, great deals to consume alcohol as well as of course women.

When Monte Cristo verified slow to supply on its promise, Rockefeller publicly repeated his assistance while secretly arranging a departure. In the summer of 1897, Trump also determined to squander and also return to Seattle-- making him, along with Rockefeller, one of the couple of financiers in Monte Cristo to end up champions instead of losers.'

Although this doesn't indicate any kind of sort of close partnership in between Rockefeller and also Trump, it is telling somehow that they both made their ton of moneys in the same environment. It paints an image of where power today originates as well as just how it inherently behaves.

Whether or otherwise John D. Rockefeller had a relationship with Friedrich Trump, Donald Trump today has a connection with Rockefeller's Requirement Oil company, which is currently ExxonMobil.

Donald Trump's Secretary of State is Rex Tillerson, ex-Exxon executive.

Continuing from the article:

' In the New Arctic Dining establishment as well as Resort, which he opened in the raw new community of Bennett in Could 1898, he once more provided 'exclusive boxes' for women, facilities that included not just a bed, but a range for considering the gold dirt used to pay for solutions.

It was the most effective dining establishment in community, one newspaper reported at the time, but included that it 'would not recommend respectable females to go there to rest as they are reliant listen to that which would be repugnant to their sensations and uttered, too, by the depraved of their own sex."

The tale is proceeded by Wikipedia:

' He acquired all the needed supplies, sold his remaining property in Monte Cristo as well as Seattle, and also moved his 40 acres in the Pine Lake Plateau to his sis Louise. In 1900, Louise sold the building for $250. In the winter season following Trump's departure from Monte Cristo, the community suffered some of the most awful avalanches and also floodings in its short background, and also this time around, Rockefeller rejected to rebuild the virtually vital railway to Everett.'

The same author created an additional short article in the Week, proceeding the tale into the 20th Century. It states:

' Friedrich died in Might 1918, prior to completion of World Battle I. There was a rising trend of anti-German sentiment in America, materialized in accusations of disloyalty versus individuals with German backgrounds, diatribes versus music by German authors, even bonfires of publications by German writers. People with German names transformed them, and readership plummeted for the country's numerous German-language publications.

This intolerant atmosphere had a profound influence on Friedrich's older son, Fred (named after Friedrich yet in an Americanized form). Just 12 years of ages when his dad died, Fred was now the guy of the house, and also he started to meddle with his family history-- that is, to tell it like it wasn't. Despite growing up in a German-speaking home and also speaking his moms and dads' language on brows through to Kallstadt, he said he didn't recognize German, and by the start of Globe War II, he stated his family members was from Sweden.'

So that brings us to Donald Trump's dad, Fred Trump. When Fred Trump's father Freidrich died, 13 year old Fred became the male of the house.

By age 15, his mother aided him begin a profession in building houses and also real-estate, using the wide range built up by Freidrich: Donald Trump's dad was provided a more modest silver spoon compared to Donald, however a silver spoon nonetheless. With the inheritance from his dad as well as his operate in real estate, Fred Trump aided his bro John G. Trump go into academia.

Fred Trump became a millionaire dealing with the United States Armed force in WWII, developing barracks and also homes. Inning accordance with Wikipedia:

' During The second world war, Trump built barracks as well as garden apartments for UNITED STATE Navy workers near major shipyards along the East Shore, including Chester, Pennsylvania, Newport Information, Virginia, and Norfolk, Virginia.

After the battle he expanded right into middle-income real estate for the families of returning professionals, developing Shore Place in Bensonhurst in 1949, and also Beach Sanctuary near Coney Island in 1950 (an overall of 2,700 apartments). In 1963-1964, he developed Trump Town, an apartment building in Coney Island, for US$ 70 million.'

This is how Donald Trump was born into a position to develop his own lot of money, following his father right into the realty business with both his cash and also service connections.

The precise amount Donald received from his papa to start his life is questioned. Hillary Clinton (not that she is to be relied on or appreciated) declared he received $14 million.

Donald Trump asserted he obtained a 'small' sum of $1 million to start, as well as other proof recommends that he got other finances from his dad. He likewise obtained a $1 million count on, as did his brother or sisters. Inning accordance with the Washington Blog post:

' The online casino paper listings numerous various other car loans from Trump's dad to his kid, including a $7.5 million loan with at least a 12-percent passion price that was still superior in 1981.

In a 2007 deposition, Trump admitted he had actually borrowed "a percentage" from his father's estate: 'I think it was like in the $9 million variety."

During the moment that Fred Trump gained his ton of money, his bro and also Donald's uncle John G. Trump was dealing with the mad scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), de-coding fantastic designer Nikola Tesla's taken papers.

MIT is a main center of scientific research for the army commercial facility, as we have actually damaged the surface area of in previous articles. Scientist and also writer Peter A. Kirby extensively exposed the root of geoengineering (spraying the skies) in MIT, and his most recent post could be found here.

John G.'s association to Tesla was summed up by Huge Think:

' A few days after Tesla died on January 8th, 1943, his ownerships were confiscated by officials from the amazingly-named government Office of Alien Property. Regarding 3 weeks then, all of Tesla's things as well as documents were offered an extensive exam by a team of FBI representatives that consisted of none various other compared to John G. Trump."

John G. Trump created concerning Tesla's taken documents, but possibly his declaration was suggested to discourage individuals from believing they found something of worth in them, to keep the searchings for a secret. He said:

Tesla's ' ideas and also initiatives throughout at the very least the previous 15 years were mainly of a speculative, thoughtful, as well as somewhat marketing personality," but "did not include brand-new, audio, convenient principles or approaches for understanding such outcomes."

More standard info concerning John G. Trump could be gathered from Wikipedia:

' During 1942, Trump became Assistant of the Microwave Board, a sub-committee of the NDRC. The director of the Microwave Board was Alfred Lee Loomis, the millionaire physicist, that determined to develop a laboratory. He selected a site for it, selected a suitably discreet and also unclear name for it and also moneyed the construction, up until the Federal administration was developed. The new institution was the MIT Radiation Laboratory, or the 'Rad Lab'.'

So what does this say concerning Donald Trump? Something is particular: he is not brand-new to the game of political power, to the military industrial facility, or to wealth.

He has never ever had a history of caring concerning our course of individuals, and he has actually filled up the White Residence with nothing however lenders, oil barons as well as individuals who loot as well as loot our class of people.

Just as Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama stood for forces bigger compared to them, from Goldman Sachs to the contemporary incarnation of Rockefeller's Criterion Oil (ExxonMobil), every one of them approve cash and also instructions from the precise same entities.

It is purposefully hard to differentiate who is against who in this powerstructure, yet it's risk-free to say none of them have our ideal interest at heart.

Neuer Sattel und noch mehr

Neuer Sattel und noch mehr

Eigentlich schon erschreckend, wieviel Geld in den letzten 1,5 Jahren in mich nun reingesteckt worden sind. Soviel Liebe und Pflege habe ich die 8 Jahre zuvor nicht erhalten, da war ich einfach ein Fortbewegungsmittel. Aber letztes Jahr bin ich dann zum Sportesel aufgestiegen

Schon lange klagte Chris darüber, dass der Sattel auf längeren Fahrten ihn Rückenschmerzen bereitet, trotz eigentlich korrekter Montage. Chris hat sich in diesem Thema sehr viel eingelesen, Berichte gelesen und schliesslich von SQLab ein Set für eine Sitzknochenvermessung bestellt. Anfangs denkt man sich bei diesem Vermessungsset: Das kann doch niemals klappen. Also kurz die Anleitung gelesen und der zweite Versuch hat dann geklappt (3 Versuche hat man). Ausgemessen und dann entsprechend einen SQ-lab 612 Ergowave Active ausgesucht. 150 € – eine Menge Geld für einen Sattel. Aber wenn es der Gesundheit gut tun wird, ist es das wert. Die erste Fahrt damit war wirklich gut, es fühlte sich gut an. Jedoch stellte Chris die nächsten Tage dann noch noch ein paar Schmerzen fest, die dann aber immer weniger wurden. Vermutlich musste sich das Hinterteil noch an den neuen Sattel gewöhnen. Nun fährt er aber soweit schmerzfrei. Und wenn ich dann meine Lackierung bekommen habe, steht ohnehin noch ein Bikefitting auf den Plan. Auf alle Fälle hat das Sitzknochenvermessen definitiv etwas gebracht. Wir können das jeden nur wärmsten empfehlen, wenn er nicht womöglich schon professionell vermessen wurde.

Hier noch ein paar Fotos von dem neuen Sattel:

      Zudem hat Chris mit erschrecken festgestellt, dass das Profil runter war und man sogar schon die Anti-Plattschicht von dem Schwalbe Marathon Reifen gesehen hat. Alles vielleicht gar nicht sooo schlimm, jedoch stand die Cyclassics vor der Tür und so musste schnell Ersatz her. Und so hat sich Chris wieder in eine neue Thematik eingelesen, Test-Berichte studiert und persönliche Empfehlungen. Die Wahl fiel am Ende auf den Continental Grand Prix 4-Season. Dank Amazon Prime waren die Mäntel dann auch nächsten Tag direkt schon da und wurden mit neuen Schlauch dann auch montiert. Doch damit nahm das Unheil seinen Lauf:

Chris stellte eine leichte Unwucht um hinteren Laufrad fest und versuchte Anfangs noch selber Hand anzulegen, stellte aber schnell fest, das wird nichts. Es war Samstag nachmittag, für Abends stand eine Tour auf den Plan, Langstrecke. Der Fahrradladen des Vertrauens macht keine Schwertspeichen. Also auf die Suche via Google Maps nach Fahrradshops gegangen. Ein paar schon bekannte Läden waren auch dabei, machten alle keine Schwertspeichen oder hatten keine Zeit. Schliesslich dann doch einen gefunden. Er sagte ich kann in zwei Stunden wieder kommen. Tja, das Ergebnis: eine gebrochene Speiche, zwei gebrochene Speichennibbel. Also dahin schon mal nie wieder.

Gut, die abendliche Tour war damit dann gestorben. Nichts desto Trotz, muss das Rad heil. Also zu einem Radladen gegangen, der in der sich in der gefühlten Homezone befindet. Eigentlich hat dieser Radladen einen guten Ruf – jedoch hat die Chemie zwischen Chris und dem Laden irgendwie nicht so ganz gepasst, die Kommunikation war katastrophal. Zwischendrinnen gab es dann ein klärendes Gespräch und ab da ging es dann eigentlich. Einer der Schrauber hat dann uns dann sogar ein Laufrad kostenfrei gestellt, damit wir die Cyclassics bestreiten können. Das hat das Ganze zumindestens ein wenig rausgerissen. Zwischenzeitlich stellte sich auch dann heraus, dass das Rad komplett neu eingespeicht werden müsse und boten mir später für wenig Aufpreis gleich ein gleiches, aber neues Mavic Aksium Laufrad samt Montage an. Dann war es endlich soweit und ich konnte mein neues Laufrad in Empfang nehmen. Leider erneut leichten Schlag im Rad. Die haben das korrigiert und ab da war es dann alles schick !

Blöde Sache: Auf dem Rückweg riss dann auch noch der Seilzug von dem hinterem Umwerfer. Spitze. Also sind wir dann quasi im Fixie-Mode nach Hause gefahren. Natürlich hatten mittlerweile alle naheliegenden Radläden schon zu. So musste das leider bis Montag warten. Montag dann kurz ein neuen Seilzug montiert, Schaltung kurz eingestellt und ab da lief es wieder wie gewohnt bzw. warscheinlich noch besser

In der Zwischenzeit wurde auch noch eine neue Luftpumpe angeschafft. Es handelt sich dabei um eine SKS Air-X-Press Control. Es steht zwar ein Luftdruckkompressor im Keller, aber ich darf die meiste Zeit in der Wohnung stehen. Chris fährt meist mit 8 bar Druck und er hatte keine Lust mehr immer mit der kleinen Handpumpe soviel Druck aufbauen zu müssen.

So, das wars soweit erstmal, reicht aber auch erstmal. Wenn es kälter wird, bekomme ich dann endlich die neue Lackierung und auch dann alle Seilzüge und Verschleissteile werden getauscht. Danach sehe ich vermutlich 10 Jahre jünger aus

The Media Lab demos marked the latest steps in a complex dance between high-technology research culture and the American counterculture. To be sure, they represented a traditional feature of engineering culture, particularly its World War II incarnation. In the Rad Lab and later, across those disciplines linked by systems theory, scientists and engineers routinely demonstrated new technologies in order to make manifest not only their immediate applications, but also  their broad ability to transform existing social systems. Norbert Wiener’s anti-aircraft predictor, Ross Ashby’s homeostat, and numerous other cybernetic machines each served as a demonstration of the ways that human life could be enhanced by human-machine integration. In the late 1960s, the New Communalist wing of the counterculture had, in its own way, thoroughly embraced the “demo-or-die” ethos of the engineering world. In venues like the Trips Festival, the hippies of Haight-Ashbury sought to demonstrate the ability of technologies such as LSD, stereos, and stroboscopic lights to amplify human consciousness. The communes of the Southwest, too, served as demonstrations, illustrating the powers of new forms of housing and new forms of cohabitation to model a new society. These various local demonstrations were connected by a far-flung network of  interpersonal relationships, a network in which Stewart Brand was a key figure. Fifteen years later, Brand symbolically integrated the Media Lab into this network, depicting the Lab as a living demonstration of an alternative society based on a shared and technologically amplified experience of consciousness. The Lab, he wrote, served as a “prefiguration of the wider evolution” of media and organizational systems. The counterculture may have faded away and its networks dissolved, but a new mechanism for transpersonal communion was emerging. “A global computer is taking shape, and we’re all connected to it,” Brand explained. “How we’re connected to it is the Media Lab’s prime interest.” The Media Lab, like the Whole Earth Catalog before it, served as both an emblem of this developing world and a mechanism through which to enter it. As a working laboratory at MIT, the Media Lab was actively building real digital artifacts and networks. Like the products Brand had once reviewed in the Catalog, the Media Lab’s digital newspapers and Lego robots could  be bought and used, so to speak, at least by corporate clients. And like the Catalog itself, the lab served to link representatives of relatively disconnected groups—in this case, corporate, academic, and technical—into a single functioning network.
