Watch the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor mule tackle the trails - Autoweek

The all-new Ford F-150 Raptor is just around the corner, as hard as that may be to believe, and Ford is currently testing Raptor mules in real life conditions -- no, not mall parking lots, real real life conditions -- trails that would make an... Ford has shared a video of an engineering prototype combining parts from the upcoming 2017 Raptor with the 2015 F-150 -- an engineering mule -- tackling trails in northern Michigan. The automaker says that the upcoming Raptor will have actually sport greater ground clearance than the first-generation model, and will use 3. 0-inch FOX Racing Shox with custom internal bypass technology. The front and rear canisters will be able to offer greater suspension travel than the current Raptor offers, which is 11. 2 inches up front and 12 inches in the rear. Ford says the redesigned truck will go on sale in the fall of 2016, which is just about when the company is expected to announced pricing for the new model. The outgoing Raptor , meanwhile, is powered by a 6. 2-liter V8 producing 411 hp and 434 lb-ft of torque, so the upcoming truck will actually have a power advantage over the "old" model.

Keel laying for future carrier JFK set for Saturday - NavyTimes.com

Laying a keel is the symbolic beginning of a ship’s construction, but work on the next second-in-class supercarrier actually started in 2010. To date, more than 450 of her 1,100 structural units have been constructed, according to Newport News... The carrier, the second in the Gerald R. Ford-class, is scheduled to launch in February 2020 and be delivered in June 2022. Kennedy will be nearly an exact replica of Ford — she will employ the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System , boast an... They will live in 40-man berthing areas (carriers today cram as many as 180 into a berthing area) with attached heads and common areas. Ford’s $12. 9 billion price tag was cut to $11. 35 billion for JFK. Lessons learned and the transfer of specially built tools from Ford will decrease construction man hours by 18 percent, officials said. the Navy is under mounting pressure to keep ballooning costs down on the Ford-class. JFK opted out of Ford’s dual-band radar, a move that will cut hundreds of millions from the bottom line. Source: www.navytimes.com

Beware the killing frosts - The Battlefords News-Optimist

A little sun, a little rain and that is the week that was. We are not suffering the plus-30 weather anymore and it has turned a little cool. We will get a killing frost soon enough. We know a killing frost comes on a clear night. Killing frosts in the fall always come with wet weather and then the clouds clear off and the weather gets down to freezing. Also in conjunction with the wet weather, any time four days before or after the change of the moon is when we get a killing frost. Looking on my hoar frost calendar, I see I have a rain marked for the 28th. There is a new moon on the 29th. This is not good. Of course, that is expecting the hoar frost calendar to be right, which it hasn’t been all year. If the big guy sends us a killing frost, we have to take it. Maybe the weather will be overcast those nights and we will escape again. I don’t farm anymore but I like to drive around and look at the crops. Today I don’t see a wheat crop that could not be swathed. Before the end of the coming week the swather guys are going to be laying crop down left and right. The pea guys will be harvesting their crops this coming week. They have a system because Ty’s welding can be a little sketchy, so they are smacking the welding with a. Source: www.newsoptimist.ca
