Biography

Tubb was born on 28 November 1881 to Harry and Emma E. Tubb, of St. Helena, Longwood East, Victoria, Australia.

He was 33 years old, and a lieutenant in the 7th Battalion (Victoria), Australian Imperial Force during the First World War was awarded the VC for his actions on 9 August 1915 at Lone Pine, Gallipoli, Turkey. Lieutenant Tubb held a newly captured trench which was being counter-attacked by the enemy, who blew in a sand-bag barricade, leaving only a foot of it standing. Tubb led his men back, repulsed the enemy and rebuilt the barricade. Twice more the enemy blew in the barricade, but on each occasion this officer, although wounded in the head and arm, held his ground and assisted by corporals Alexander Stewart Burton and William Dunstan, rebuilt it, and maintained the position under heavy bombardment.

Citation

For most conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty at Lone Pine trenches, in the Gallipoli Peninsula, on 9th August, 1915. In the early morning the enemy made a determined counter attack on the centre of the newly captured trench held by Lieutenant Tubb. They advanced up a sap and blew in a sandbag barricade, leaving only one foot of it standing, but Lieutenant Tubb led his men back, repulsed the enemy, and rebuilt the barricade. Supported by strong bombing parties, the enemy succeeded in twice again blowing in the barricade, but on each occasion Lieutenant Tubb, although wounded in the head and arm, held his ground with the greatest coolness and rebuilt it, and finally succeeded in maintaining his position under very heavy bomb fire.
The London Gazette, No. 29328 15 October 1915


Tubb’s grave at Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery, Belgium. Plot XIX, row C, grave 5.

He later achieved the rank of major and died of wounds suffered in battle at Polygon Wood, Third Battle of Ypres, France, on 20 September 1917. In this action Major Tubb was serving with 7th Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 1st Australian Division when he was shot by a German sniper. While being carried to the rear he was struck by British artillery shells. He died at the dressing station at Lijssenthoek and was buried at Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery, Belgium.

The Medal

His Victoria Cross is displayed at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra, Australia along with the eight other Australian Gallipoli VCs.

Mopar

March 9th, 2010

















Mopar

Jump to: navigation, search


Mopar has recently become involved in sprint car racing.

Mopar (short for MOtor PARts) is the automobile parts and service arm of Chrysler Group LLC. The term was first used by Chrysler in the 1920s and has been in continuous use ever since. Mopar parts are original equipment manufactured parts for Chrysler vehicles. In Canada, these were sold under the Chryco and AutoPar brands until the Mopar brand was phased into that nation’s market, starting in the late 1970s.

Mopar has passed into broader usage among car enthusiasts as an unambiguous reference to the Chrysler parent company, as the Chrysler name also refers to a company marque. The term has thus become an inclusive word for any Chrysler-built vehicle—most any Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, Imperial, or DeSoto, plus Jeeps and AMC vehicles built before Chrysler’s 1987 buyout of AMC-Jeep. Thus, for example, a car club for owners of any Chrysler Corporation vehicle might describe itself as a club for “Mopar enthusiasts”.

Sponsorship

In the United States and Canada Mopar participates in Formula Drift Series Formula D. Current 2009 drivers for Formula Drift competition are Samuel Hubinette In Canada Mopar participate in Canada World Drift Series Drivers for the Canada Drift Competition are Vanessa Ozawa, Jessica Lopez, Kevin Huynh, and Chris Yakamoto.Currently,Mopar also sponsors NHRA drag racer Allen Johnson in that series’ Pro Stock division.

Jalan Kayu
English Jalan Kayu
Chinese ????
(Pinyin r?lánji?yóu)
Malay Jalan Kayu
Tamil ???? ????


Row of shophouses next to Jalan Kayu, famous to food-hunters for its roti prata.

Jalan Kayu is a name of a street situated within the Sengkang Planning Area in the North-East Region of Singapore, under the urban planning scheme of the Urban Redevelopment Authority. The area east of Jalan Kayu has been renamed as Fernvale to form the western part of Sengkang New Town.

Etymology and history

Jalan Kayu was built in 1928 when the first Royal Air Force base outside the United Kingdom was established in Singapore, in the northern part of the island.

Jalan Kayu means “wooden road” in Malay. One version for the road name’s origin is that firewood used to be stacked on the roadside. Another version is that the muddy laterite roads leading to the rubber estates in the area were made passable due to logs of wood that used to cover the muddy roads, hence the term in Malay jalan kayu.

Highlights

The street itself is a relatively minor, one-lane road. However, it became prominent in Singapore for two reasons. First, it was the main access route to the large British-built military compound in Seletar as well as the neighbouring Seletar Airport. Second, a range of road-side eateries selling roti prata gradually earned a reputation among the people of Singapore as arguably amongst the best in Singapore, and the road name became a household name for good food in a laidback setting.

Getting there

Only services 86, 103 and 103M call at the Jalan Kayu Shophouses.The rest of the busses serve as a transferring point to other areas

Chemical Agent Resistant Coating

March 8th, 2010

















Chemical Agent Resistant Coating

Jump to: navigation, search

Chemical Agent Resistant Coating is the term for the paint commonly applied to military vehicles which provides protection against chemical and biological weapons.

The surface of the paint is engineered to be easily decontaminated after exposition to chemical warfare and biological warfare agents. The paint is also resistant to damage and removal by decontaminating solutions. Two-component systems (e.g. epoxy or polyester-based) are often employed.

Nonylphenol is an organic compound of the wider family of alkylphenols. It is a product of industrial synthesis formed during the alkylation process of phenols, particularly in the synthesis of polyethoxylate detergents. Because of their man-made origins, nonylphenols are classified as xenobiotics.

Due to its high production and dispersive use patterns, nonylphenol is found in many of the worlds bodies of waters. The Great Lakes have had some of the highest levels reported, though the levels remain well below acute toxicity thresholds. Nonylphenol, and a related compound tert-octylphenol, were first detected as an air pollutant in New York City and New Jersey, probably due to its evaporation from the Hudson river and other smaller rivers in the region that routinely receive municipal wastewaters. It is possible that the atmosphere is a destructive sink for nonylphenol as it is probably reactive with atmospheric radicals and/or is photoactive. Nonylphenol is found all around the world, and is of high concern due to its hazardous effects that have been found in many aquatic organisms.

Chemical description

In nonylphenols, a hydrocarbon chain of nine carbon atoms is attached to the phenol ring in either the ortho (2), meta (3), or para (4) position, with the most common ring isomers being ortho or para. Moreover, the alkyl chains can exist as either linear n-alkyl chains, or complex branched chains. Nonylphenol is commonly obtained as a mixture of isomers, largely with highly branched alkyl groups, and is thus usually found as a pale yellow liquid at room temperature with a freezing point of -10 °C and a boiling point of 295-320 °C. However, pure isomers of nonylphenol crystallize readily at room temperatures and for example, para-n-nonylphenol, forms white crystals at room temperature. It has a straw color and is poorly soluble in water and is soluble in alcohol.

Ethoxylated alkylphenols, alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEs), are used as industrial surfactants in manufacture of wool and metal, as emulsifiers for emulsion polymerization, in laboratory detergents, and pesticides. APEs are a component of some household detergents outside of Europe; within Europe, due to environmental concerns, they are replaced by more expensive but safer alcohol ethoxylates.

Nonoxynol-9, one of the APEs, is used as a surfactant in cleaning and cosmetic products, and as a spermicide in contraceptives.

In 1984, the formation of 4-nonylphenols from nonylphenol ethoxylates in wastewater treatment plants was first discovered.

Health hazards

Nonylphenol is considered to be a xenoestrogen because it is a man made chemical that acts on the estrogen receptor. Nonylphenol is considered to be an endocrine disruptor due to its tendency to mimic estrogen and in turn disrupt the natural balance of hormones in a given organism.

Nonylphenol has been shown to disrupt normal reproductive functions in many types of organisms, particularly aquatic life.

Nonylphenol is persistent in the environment, therefore lingers around to potentially negatively effect organisms it comes in contact with. Nonylphenol also bioaccumulates, which is dangerous to animals and humans which eat meat.

Environmental protection policies

Nonylphenol and nonyphenol ethoxylates have been banned in the European Union as a hazard to human and environmental safety.

For freshwater ecosystems, the Environmental Protection Agency has set two types of standards: the first which is considered acute criteria is one-hour average concentration of nonylphenol does not exceed 28 ?g/L more than once every three years on the average.

For saltwater ecosystems, the standard is considered to be chronic criteria and is set to four-day average concentration of nonylphenol that does not exceed 6.6 ?g/l more than once every three years on the average.
