Heart Wirral
Heart Wirral (formerly Wirral's Buzz) was an Independent Local Radio station broadcasting to the Wirral Peninsula, sharing its facilities with Heart Wrexham and Gold, in Gwersyllt, Wrexham. History The station, owned by Global Radio (originally by Marcher Radio Group), broadcast a mix of popular music and presenter chat. Launched in 1989 as ''MFM 97.1'' (an opt-out service from the main Marcher Sound output), the station relaunched as ''Wirral's Buzz'' on 14 February 1999, before becoming ''Heart Wirral'' in 2009. The station was broadcast from the Storeton transmitter on Storeton ridge in Higher Bebington. Although the area of the licence was Wirral, it could be received as far east as Warrington and as far west as Ruthin in the Heart Wrexham region. In November 2005, it was announced that GCap's former Marcher Radio Group stations, including ''Buzz'', were to be sold. This was due to the fact that they were outside of the company's primary target area, however in 2006 G ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Marcher Sound
Heart Cheshire and North East Wales (formerly Marcher Sound and previously MFM 103.4) was an independent radio station broadcasting to north east Wales and Cheshire from its Mold Road studios in Gwersyllt, Wrexham, also shared with Gold and Heart Wirral. The station was last owned and operated by Global Radio who purchased the previous owner, GCap Media, the group formed by the merger of GWR Group and Capital Radio Group. GWR purchased Marcher Radio Group in October 2000, although the latter remains as the official licensee of the station, which now forms part of Capital North West and Wales. The station was broadcast from the Wrexham-Rhos Relay, situated just above The Moss near Wrexham, and although it officially broadcast to the Wrexham and Chester areas, it could also be heard in parts of Merseyside and Shropshire. History Early years Originally the flagship station for what became the Marcher Radio Group, ''Marcher Sound'' (''Sain-Y-Gororau'' in Welsh), licensed by ...

MFM Radio
M Radio (originally known as MFM Radio) is a radio station, based at Lyon (France) and created in 1981. M is dedicated to only French songs like its local competitor in Île-de-France, Chante France. History In 1981, MFM was created in Lyon, then named as Radio Montmartre, and proposed a format essentially based on French chansons from the 1920s till the 1960s. Following a certain success, Radio Montmartre extended its coverage in the late 1980s. In 1995, it was authorized by the CSA to change its name to "Montmartre FM". Until 1998, MFM was controlled by the RMC Group. The station was then acquired by LV & Co who were owned by Gérard Louvin. After the purchase, Montmartre FM became known simply as MFM. In April 2007, the programming was made around a musical format focused on ''relaxation and emotion'', broadcasting mainly songs from the 1970s to today. Since then, it always plays "40 minutes of ad-free music" for EVERY hour of the day. The format was changed to be aimed a ...

Macau International Airport
Macau International Airport ( zh, 澳門國際機場; pt, Aeroporto Internacional de Macau) is an international airport in the special administrative region of Macau, situated at the eastern end of Taipa island and neighbouring waters which opened for commercial operations on 9 November 1995, during Portuguese administration of the region. Since then the airport has been a common transfer point for people traveling between the Mainland and Taiwan, as well as a passenger hub for destinations in mainland China and Southeast Asia. During 2006, the airport handled 5 million passengers and 220,000 tonnes of cargo. In 2017 the number of passengers had increased to 7,165,803, which is more than the 6 million passengers per year the terminal was originally designed for. History During the 1990s, the Macau airport had a direct link to Europe. TAP Air Portugal, in cooperation with Sabena, started flying Airbus A340s to Lisbon via Brussels in April 1996, but within a few months the ...

Magnetic Force Microscope
Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is a variety of atomic force microscopy, in which a sharp magnetized tip scans a magnetic sample; the tip-sample magnetic interactions are detected and used to reconstruct the magnetic structure of the sample surface. Many kinds of magnetic interactions are measured by MFM, including magnetic dipole–dipole interaction. MFM scanning often uses non-contact AFM (NC-AFM) mode. Overview In MFM measurements, the magnetic force between the sample and the tip can be expressed as :\vec F=\mu_o (\vec m \cdot \nabla ) \vec H \,\! where \vec m \, \! is the magnetic moment of the tip (approximated as a point dipole), \vec H \, \! is the magnetic stray field from the sample surface, and ''µ0'' is the magnetic permeability of free space. Because the stray magnetic field from the sample can affect the magnetic state of the tip, and vice versa, interpretation of the MFM measurement is not straightforward. For instance, the geometry of the tip magnetization ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Marine Fuel Management
Marine fuel management (MFM) is a multi-level approach to measuring, monitoring, and reporting fuel usage on a boat or ship, with the goals of reducing fuel usage, increasing operational efficiency, and improving fleet management. MFM has grown in importance due to the rising costs of marine fuel and increasing government oversight of the pollution generated by the world's shipping fleet. Effective MFM requires that you know: * How much fuel is likely to be used * How much fuel is used * How the fuel was used * What things impact fuel usage * And by how much Manual methods of measuring fuel usage, i.e. fuel tank dipping or sounding, typically do not tell how much fuel was used: * Traveling versus idling while in port or on station * By a specific engine (port versus starboard, for example) * Performing one job versus another * By crew A versus crew B on similar voyages Without a clear understanding of how fuel is being used, there is no operational baseline from which to com ...

Material Flow Management
Material flow management (MFM) is a method of efficiently managing materials. The triad of environmental, social and economical orientation makes MFM a tool of high importance in the field of sustainable development and circular economy. Seen historically, material flow management is a tool that can be understood as an implementation-orientated advancement of the methodology of material flow analysis (MFA). MFM was established as a policy tool after the UN Earth Summit conference in Rio de Janeiro 1992. The German Bundestag outlined the targets and specific goals of MFM in a special report by an Enquete Commission. See also * Material flow accounting Material flow accounting (MFA) is the study of material flows on a national or regional scale. It is therefore sometimes also referred to as regional, national or economy-wide material flow analysis Material flow analysis (MFA), also referred to as ...

Melodies From Mars
''Melodies from Mars'' is a collection of unreleased tracks by Richard David James, better known under his pseudonym Aphex Twin. Although James did not admit authorship until 2014, it was known to fans as an unofficial Aphex Twin album because at least two of its tracks are alternate versions (possibly demo versions) of tracks featured on the subsequently released ''Richard D. James Album'' (1996). Some tracks also bear resemblance to those on '' Analogue Bubblebath 5''. These tracks are thought to mark the beginning of a new phase in James's career, when he started composing music using computer software rather than on synthesizers and analogue equipment. There are few places to find this album. It is commonly believed that ''Melodies from Mars'' was given to some of James' friends on cassette tapes. The Aphex Twin Community claims that "men in black suits" (people from Rephlex) asked it to remove MP3 excerpts from its website. An alternate version was illegally released in R ...

Methylsulfonylmethane
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH3)2SO2. It is also known by several other names including methyl sulfone and dimethyl sulfone (DMSO2). This colorless solid features the sulfonyl functional group and is the simplest of the sulfones. It is considered relatively inert chemically and is able to resist decomposition at elevated temperatures. It occurs naturally in some primitive plants, is present in small amounts in many foods and beverages, and is marketed as a dietary supplement. It is sometimes used as a cutting agent for illicitly manufactured methamphetamine. It is also commonly found in the atmosphere above marine areas, where it is used as a carbon source by the airborne bacteria ''Afipia''. Oxidation of dimethyl sulfoxide produces the sulfone, both under laboratory conditions and metabolically. Use as a solvent Because of its polarity and thermal stability, MSM has been used industrially as a high-temperature solvent. For example, di ...
