BS11 Five Power Defence Arrangement (FPDA)Australia and the other members of the Five Power Defence Arrangement (FPDA) today completed a major military exercise to plan and conduct a joint military operation for the defence of Malaysia and Singapore. The FPDA countries - Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand and the UK - conducted Exercise Bersama Shield 2011 during May 2-13 which challenged them to jointly plan and execute tactical missions for 46 combat aircraft and nine warships. Over the past 11 days FPDA warships and a diverse range of combat aircraft have engaged in complex air defence exercises. The tactical missions involved the integration of different aircraft types which was coordinated by 130 FPDA personnel at Butterworth Air Base in Malaysia. The exercise was beneficial for Australia's new F/A-18F Super Hornets, and the RAN guided missile frigates, HMA Ships Ballarat and Parramatta. The Super Hornets, from 1 Squadron at RAAF Base Amberley in Queensland, trained alongside Malaysian MiG-29 interceptors and Singaporean F-16s to help the combined maritime task group conduct highly realistic air defence exercises. The Commanding Officer of 1 Squadron, Wing Commander Glen Braz, said the Australian Super Hornets have practiced air combat tactics that enhanced the Air Force's experience of air combat with regional defence forces. "This type of training is especially beneficial for our aircrew to be exposed to a highly complex and multi-national environment that aids in developing their air combat ...

5. Vladimir Nabokov, LolitaThe American Novel Since 1945 (ENGL 291) Professor Amy Hungerford introduces the first of three lectures on Nabokov's Lolita by surveying students' reactions to the novel, highlighting the conflicting emotions readers feel, enjoying Nabokov's virtuosic style, but being repelled by the violence of his subject matter. Nabokov's childhood in tsarist Russia provides some foundation for his interest in memory, imagination, and language. Finally, Professor Hungerford shows how Nabokov, through the voice of his protagonist Humbert, in his own voice in the epilogue, and in the voice of "John Ray, Jr." in the foreword, preempts moral judgments in a novel that celebrates the power of the imagination and the seductive thrill of language. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Should Google Go Nuclear? Clean, cheap, nuclear power...Google Tech Talks November 9, 2006 ABSTRACT This is not your father's fusion reactor! Forget everything you know about conventional thinking on nuclear fusion: high-temperature plasmas, steam turbines, neutron radiation and even nuclear waste are a thing of the past. Goodbye thermonuclear fusion; hello inertial electrostatic confinement fusion (IEC), an old idea that's been made new. While the international community debates the fate of the politically-turmoiled $12 billion ITER (an experimental thermonuclear reactor), simple IEC reactors are being built as high-school science fair projects.

There is also a brief discussion of Chi and Yoga. This talk is given by Todd Murphy, inventor of the 8 Coil Shakti (similar to the Persinger God Helmet), and author of "Sacred Pathways: The Brain's Role in Religious and Mystic Experiences" (Kindle edition, www.amazon.com

Nuclear Disaster Preparedness Special: Cold War Atomic Bomb Evacuation Film (1957)DVD: www.amazon.com CONELRAD (Control of Electromagnetic Radiation) was a method of emergency broadcasting to the public of the United States in the event of enemy attack during the Cold War. It was intended to serve two purposes; to prevent Soviet bombers from homing in on American cities by using radio or TV stations as beacons, and to provide essential civil defense information. US President Harry S. Truman established CONELRAD in 1951. After the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles reduced the likelihood of a bomber attack, CONELRAD was replaced by the Emergency Broadcast System on August 5, 1963, which was later replaced with the Emergency Alert System in 1997; all were administered by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Unlike its successors, the EBS and EAS, CONELRAD was never used for nor intended to be used for severe weather warnings or local civil emergencies. Prior to 1951, there was no method that the US government could use to broadcast warnings to citizens in the event of an emergency. However, radio stations and networks could interrupt normal programming and issue a bulletin in the event of an emergency, as happened during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, as well as the first successful tornado warning near Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City in 1948. This type of broadcasting was the forerunner to CONELRAD. The CONELRAD concept was originally known as the Key Station System. According to an FCC document created ...

Parliament debates on SMRT breakdown - 09Jan2012SINGAPORE: Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew says the train disruptions in December have exposed gaps in the way such emergencies are handled, adding that authorities need to do better. Delivering a ministerial statement in Parliament on Monday, he said the government will review the regulatory and penalty framework overseeing rail operations as well as the maintenance regime. Straight off the bat, the transport minister said the breakdowns on the North-South Line on December 15 and 17 last year were disruptive and poorly managed. "SMRT could have better handled the evacuation of the passengers in the stalled trains to reduce the sense of distress, and provided clearer and timelier information and instructions to the public, instead of leaving commuters confused and apprehensive in already disordered circumstances," said Mr Lui. "That the two incidents have the same proximate cause and happened two days apart raises concerns about possible systemic shortcomings." On 15 December 2011, thousands of evening peak-hour commuters were stranded as four trains stalled due to a power failure. In one stalled train, passengers were trapped in darkness for over an hour with poor ventilation. Many did not know what was going on. 11 stations between Braddell and Marina Bay were affected for five hours, and the chaos continued as commuters tried to make their way home. Operator SMRT said the breakdowns were due to a damaged third rail, which supplies power to the trains. A day later ...

Eurocopter EC 155 the most sophisticated helicopterThe Eurocopter EC 155 medium-lift twin engine helicopter is a development of the AS 365N Dauphin 2, with 40% larger cabin area, new rotor and 'glass cockpit'. Eurocopter is a wholly owned subsidiary of the EADS (European Aeronautic, Defense and Space) company, formed by the merger of Aerospatiale Matra of France, DaimlerChrysler Aerospace of Germany and CASA of Spain. The 5t EC 155 is suitable for a variety of roles such as parapublic (law enforcement, fire fighting, emergency medical), commercial passenger transport, VIP/corporate and offshore operations. The EC 155 first flew in 1997. It was certified by the French Civil Aviation Authority (DGAC) and the German Government Agencies (LBA) in 1999 and for single-pilot IFR (instrument flight rules) operations in January 2000. Launch customer for the EC 155 B1 helicopter was the Hong Kong Government Flying Service. Deliveries of five helicopters began in November 2002. Over 60 EC 155 helicopters have been ordered, including 15 for the German Federal Border Guard (BGS), six for Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria, four for Azerbaijan Airlines, three for Samsung in South Korea, two for the Royal Thai Police and one for Heli Air Monaco/Monacair for VIP transport of the royal family of Monaco. An EC 155 helicopter has been used as a demonstrator for Eurocopter's All Weather Helicopter (AWH) programme. First flight of the demonstrator took place in October 2002. The EC 155 was equipped with a DGPS (Differential Global ...

The Five Power Defence Arrangements (FPDA) are a series of defence relationships established by a series of bilateral agreements between the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and Singapore signed in 1971, whereby the five states will consult each other in the event of external aggression or threat of attack against Peninsular Malaysia (East Malaysia is not included as part of the area of responsibilities under the FPDA) or Singapore.
The FPDA was set up following the termination of the United Kingdom's defence guarantees of Malaysia and Singapore as a result of Britain's decision in 1967 to withdraw its armed forces east of Suez. The FPDA provides for defence co-operation, and for an Integrated Air Defence System (IADS) for Malaysia and Singapore based in RMAF Butterworth under the command of an Australian Air Vice-Marshal (2-star). RMAF Butterworth, until 1988 under the control of the Royal Australian Air Force, is now owned by the Royal Malaysian Air Force, but hosts rotating detachments of aircraft and personnel from all five countries.
In 1981, the five powers organised the first annual land and naval exercises. Since 1997, the naval and air exercises have been combined. In 2001, HQ IADS was redesignated Headquarters Integrated "Area" Defence System. It now has personnel from all three branches of the armed services, and co-ordinates the annual five-power naval and air exercises, while moving towards the fuller integration of land elements.
John Moore, then Minister for Defence of Australia said, "As an established multilateral security framework, the FPDA has a unique role in Asia. It is of strategic benefit to all member nations and, in Australia's view, to the wider Asia-Pacific region."[1]
[edit] 40th Anniversary
On 1 November 2011, Singapore hosted FPDA's 40th anniversary celebrations, with the defence ministers, aircraft and servicemen from all five signatory countries converging on Changi Air Base (East) to participate in the event. Later, a gala dinner was hosted by Singapore's defence minister - Dr Ng Eng Hen at Singapore's Istana whereupon they called on the Prime Minister of Singapore - Mr Lee Hsien Loong to discuss a multitude of issues. Codenamed Exercise Bersama Lima, the three days joint exercise is expected to test the readiness and cooperation between all participating countries and should conclude on 4 November 2011.[2]
