Killingworth is a small town located south of West Wallsend, New South Wales and west of the Sydney-Newcastle Freeway. It is part of the West Ward of the City of Lake Macquarie local government area, and Ward ‘D’ of the City of Cessnock.

History

Killingworth owes its origins to coal mining, which took place there from 1888 until the Great Depression, when it ceased for a time, and thereafter until the great slump in the industry in the 1960s. Caledonian Collieries Limited purchased the original unworked shafts at Killingworth in 1895 and continued its sinking to a depth of 880 feet. Two seams were subsequently mined, production commencing at Killingworth Colliery in October 1897. It was renamed West Wallsend Extended Colliery about 1915, although large K C letters continued to adorn the engine rooms. Their coal was shipped via its own branch which connected with the main private railway from Seahampton and West Wallsend to the government’s main line at Cockle Creek.

A huge gas explosion occurred in the pit at 5.25 a.m. on December 7, 1910. No human life was lost but a horse named ‘Splash’ was killed. The shaft’s cages were blown right up the shaft to lodge in a massive tangled mess in the metal headframe. Production did not resume until August 1911.

A brick kiln was established at the colliery, as was a sawmill connected to the mine’s railway by a spur. The timber used to construct many houses in Killingworth was produced here. In addition, a large wagon repair shop was opened in 1924 and not closed until April 1961, eighteen months prior to the colliery’s final closure.

A public school operated from 1891-1892 and 1902-1941.

Breeding

It makes its nest in a termites nest usually in a tree or sometimes on the ground. To make a nest the female digs a tunnel up to a length of 30 cm in the termites nest in a colony with other lovebirds.

Aviculture

It is difficult to breed in captivity because it has to burrow to make its nest and the nest chamber needs to be heated to about 27C; however, they can be induced to burrow into cork to build a nest. It is a very nervous species.

Bubble car

Jump to: navigation, search

A BMW Isetta 300

A Messerschmitt Kabinenroller KR 200

A Peel Trident

Bubble car is a subjective term used for some small, economical automobiles, usually produced in the 1950s and 1960s.

Contents 1 Varieties 2 See also 3 References 4 External links

Varieties

The Messerschmitt KR175 and KR200, and the FMR Tg500, had aircraft-style bubble canopies, giving rise to the term bubble car to refer to all these post-war microcars. Isettas and others also had a bubble-like appearance.

Bubble cars became popular in Europe at that time as a demand for cheap personal motorised transport emerged and fuel prices were high due in part to the 1956 Suez Crisis. Most of them were three-wheelers, which in many places qualified them for inexpensive taxes and licensing as motorcycles.

Most bubble cars were manufactered in Germany, including by the former German military aircraft manufacturers, Messerschmitt and Heinkel. Automobile and motorcycle manufacturer BMW manufactured the Italian Iso Rivolta Isetta under licence, using an engine from one of their own motorcycles. France also produced large numbers of similar tiny vehicles called voiturettes, but unlike the German makes, these were rarely sold abroad.

The United Kingdom had licence-built right-hand drive versions of the Heinkel Kabine and the Isetta. The British version of the Isetta was built with only one rear wheel instead of the narrow-tracked pair of wheels in the normal Isetta design in order to take advantage of the three-wheel vehicle laws in the United Kingdom. There were also indigenous British three wheeled microcars, including the larger Regal and Robin from the Reliant Motor Company in Staffordshire and the smaller P50 and Trident from the Peel Engineering Company on the Isle of Man.

Bubble cars were superseded by a new wave of ‘proper small cars’ like the 1959 Austin Mini, which gave far more functionality for their owners for only slightly higher costs. However, the Reliant Robin remained in production until 1997, and production was briefly restarted under licence for a few months in 2002.

Wolfville is a small town in the Annapolis Valley, Kings County, Nova Scotia, Canada, located about 100 kilometres (62 miles) northwest of the provincial capital, Halifax. As of 2006, the population was 3,772.

Wolfville is home to Acadia University, Landmark East School and the Acadia Cinema Cooperative, a non-profit organization that runs the local movie/performance house. The town also operates a small library and C@P site.

Wolfville is a popular tourist destination for the scenery of the nearby Bay of Fundy and Gaspereau Valley, as well as for the many cultural attractions which are offered by the university and town. In the past few years, several Victorian houses in Wolfville have been converted to bed and breakfast establishments.

Sign upon entering Wolfville

Once known as Mud Creek and Horton, the town was renamed Wolfville in honour of judge Elisha DeWolf in 1830. The town was an important shipbuilding location in the mid 19th century led by Wolfville shipbuilders such as Charles Rufus Burgess who later built the large full rigged ship Canada. The Windsor and Annapolis Railway arrived in 1868, later becoming the Dominion Atlantic Railway making Wolfville a seaport devoted principally to the export of apples from the orchards of the fertile Annapolis Valley. Wolfville Harbour was also a terminus of the MV Kipawo ferry, the last of a long succession of ferries that connected Wolfville, Kingsport and Parrsboro for 200 years. The harbour, which empties twice a day due to the high tides of the Bay of Fundy, was once described by Robert Ripley as the smallest in the world.

In 1985, Wolfville was declared a nuclear free zone. Wolfville was declared Canada’s first fair trade town on April 17, 2007.

Culture

Wolfville is considered by many to be, apart from Halifax, the cultural hub of Nova Scotia. The Acadia University Art Gallery and The Atlantic Theatre Festival are both located on Main Street along with many bistros and boutiques.

GHG Vehicle Test Group

Jump to: navigation, search

plainlinks ambox ambox-move” style=”">

It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into US emission standard. (Discuss)

GHG Vehicle Test Group means vehicles that have identical test group, vehicle make and model, transmission class and driveline, aspiration method (e.g. naturally aspirated, turbo-charged), camshaft configuration, valvetrain configuration and inertia weight class.

Since the 2001 model year, light-duty vehicle engine families are known as “test groups”. There are many different test groups; for example, the Ford F-150 could have 10 or more test groups, depending on the engine size, gross vehicle weight, and drivetrain of the vehicle.
