1937 Duesenberg SJ - James Deneen

This boal-lail speedster, built by Weymann to a design of Gordon Buehrig, was one of only 36 SJ models produced by Duesenberg. It was owned by George Whittell of Woodside, California, along with five "J" model Duesenbergs. An honorary fire marshall, Mr. Whittell had a siren and red light specially installed, although he rarely drove the SJ because its striking appearance attracted so much attention. When the car was acquired by Harrah's Automobile Collection, the odometer registered only 1,432 miles, and the car still had its original tires, paint and upholstery.

A climate change study that projected a 2.4 degree Celsius increase in temperature and massive worldwide food shortages in the next decade was seriously flawed, scientists said.

Scientist Osvaldo Canziani, who was part of the 2007 Nobel Prize winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, was listed as the scientific advisor to the report.

The IPCC, whose figures were cited as the basis for the study's projections, and Al Gore jointly won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 2007 "for their efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change," the prize committee said at the time.

...

The study cited the UN group's figures for its projections, combined with "the business-as-usual path the world is currently following," said lead author Liliana Hisas of the Universal Ecological Fund (UEF), a non-profit group headquartered in Argentina.

But climate scientist Ray Weymann told AFP that the "study contains a significant error in that it confuses 'equilibrium' temperature rise with 'transient temperature rise.'"

This 1948 built Weymann bodied Bristol K6A M&D's DH266 stuck on the Well's Hill correctly known as Mt Pleasant in the winter of that year -was eventually turned and cam back down tother side! Shortly after was withdrawn from service in March 1963 and like many of her vintage these K6a's did long service in Kent under M&D and their close neighbours Chatrans who they amalgamated with in 1955 -picture Chris Phillips

If you, like me, have used telescopes to gaze out at the wonders of the Universe, then you too may have been a little captivated by the topic of gravitational lensing.  Think about it: how cool is it that the very universe we are trying to explore is actually providing us with telescopes to probe the darkest corners of space and time?  The alignment of large clusters of galaxies is the usual culprit whose gravity bends distant light to give us nature’s own telescopes, but now part-time theoretical physicist Viktor T Toth poses the question, “Can there be multiple gravitational lenses lined up and can they provide a ‘communication bridge’ to allow civilisations to communicate?” You might have heard of Albert Einstein.  In his general theory of relativity, he describes how the presence of matter can distort space around them.  The famous analogy of placing a bowling ball at the centre of a large rubber sheet causes a dip centred around the mass of the bowling ball.  Any object rolling past the ball would find itself traveling through ‘curved space’ and, therefore, find its path to be altered.  This very concept is used successfully by space mission planners to adjust the trajectory of spacecraft exploring the Solar System.  The same concept applies to light as it passes by massive objects like galaxy clusters and is the principle behind the gravitational lens. The first evidence of light being deflected by a massive object was performed in 1919 by Arthur Eddington and Frank Watson Dyson during a total solar eclipse. Gravitational lenses entered the scene 60 years later when they were first observed in 1979 by Dennis Walsh, Bob Carswell, and Ray Weymann using the 2.1m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory. An artist’s impression of a gravitational lens seen by Hubble. NASA, ESA and D. Player (STScI) In a fascinating paper authored by Toth he explores the possibility that multiple gravitational lenses might provide extra amplification of light to provide a communication bridge between distant civilisations.  In a conventional gravitational lens, a large mass – such as a cluster of galaxies – sits between a more distant object and the Earth. As the light travels from the distant object, it is bent around the galaxy cluster, providing a lensing effect to astronomers on Earth, allowing them to a) study the distribution of matter in the lensing cluster but also to observe the more distant object a little more easily. Toth proposes that, just like a conventional telescope that uses multiple lenses, a multiple gravitational lens could provide even more amplification than a single system.  Toth explores combinations of multiple gravitational lenses using a variety of methods but focuses (sorry) attention on a two-lens system (so-called gravitational lens bridge), which is aligned along the central axis of the system, but found no advantages and no additional signal amplification over the results from a single lens system.  In addition, photon mapping techniques were applied with the same outcome; a double-lens system offers no advantage over a single-lens system.  Applying the wave theory of light to the same two-lens system revealed the same results, but using computer graphics to perform ray tracing (which cannot be used to estimate amplification) can help to highlight visual features other techniques would be unable to produce. Using this approach, it suggested a two-lens system would produce two concentric Einstein rings; however, they would be very difficult to detect in real-world scenarios.   In summary, then, a fascinating concept, especially the possibility of using a lens bridge for communication with distant civilisations, but the results are less than promising. Yes, there may well be double gravitational lenses, but as this paper shows, it is unlikely we will be able to detect them for now and sadly I suspect the idea of using them as a long-distance cosmic telephone will for now remain science fiction.

Tra le novità ci sarà la presenza delle più importanti collezioni museali al mondo, dal Museo Nazionale dell’Automobile che a Bologna proseguirà i festeggiamenti per i 90 anni dalla sua fondazione esponendo 8 vetture della collezione, con una Ferrari 312 T5 1981, una Monaco-Trossi 1935 e una Lancia Lambda Weymann, oltre all’Autoworld Brussels (Belgio), il Louwman Museum (Paesi Bassi), il Musée National de l’Automobile di Mulhouse (Francia), il National Motor Museum di Beaulieu (UK), il Musée National de la Voiture | Château de Compiègne (Francia), che porteranno a Bologna pezzi significativi. Non mancherà la presenza delle eccellenze  della Motor Valley nel padiglione 32, dove saranno presenti Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, Ducati, Pagani e Dallara, oltre ai quattro autodromi della Terra dei Motori: Varano de’ Melegari, Autodromo di Modena, Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari di Imola, Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, assieme a scuderie, collezioni private e raduni.

Presenti club e registri, tra conferme e new entry, come la Scuderia San Martino ed è stato rinnovato e ingrandito invece l’ASI Village, il grande spazio dedicato all’Automotoclub Storico Italiano, con oltre 20 Club Federati all’interno del Padiglione 25. Il tema che caratterizzerà l’intera esposizione dell’ASI Village sarà Orgoglio italiano con la presenza di una vettura dalla storia significativa, l'Alfa Romeo Giulietta del 1956 appartenuta ad Enrico Mattei e tuttora conservata dalla famiglia del fondatore dell'ENI. Sarà presente anche la Marina Militare Italiana con l'esposizione del modello in scala 1:25 della Nave Scuola Amerigo Vespucci, attualmente in navigazione per il giro del mondo, l'Automobile Club Italiano e l'ACI Storico nell'ampia area che ospiterà diverse vetture di spicco, oltre a un calendario di eventi e talk dedicati. Confermata anche Piazzetta Lancia, un’area espositiva dedicata a tutti i club della grande marca italiana, oltre al neonato Club Cayenne, che porterà a cinque il numero dei club Porsche presenti ad Auto e Moto d’Epoca 2023. Tra gli anniversari ci saranno le celebrazioni per i 70 anni dell’Autodelta e i 100 anni del Quadrifoglio Alfa Romeo, dove la collezione Marazzato unirà gli esemplari di camion d’epoca all’esperienza VR di guida sulle strade degli anni ‘50.
