While divergent governance regimes have shaped the development of urban transportation networks in the two case city-regions, the imperatives of globalization and neoliberalization are pressuring the material, political and discursive regionalization of airport space while privileging the logics of premium networked mobility.The Special Envoy for International Water Affairs, Henk Ovink and the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs) have taken on the challenge of addressing water crises in urban areas. The concept of aero-regionalism advances our understanding of the urban political economy of airports by uncovering how competitive economic globalization, state spatiality and the development of large-scale airport infrastructures are mediated through the symbiotic, if contested, co-production of urban and air space. The paper analyzes the relative significance of variations in local transportation and planning systems to develop our understanding of the relations between global aviation infrastructures and their surrounding regional spaces, and the connectivity between major global ports and local transportation capillaries in global city-regions. I provide a relational geographic comparison of the impact of varying local institutional arrangements and policy frameworks on the political and infrastructural integration of airports in the global city-regions of Chicago and Toronto. This paper introduces the concept of aero-regionalism to explore the relationality/territoriality dialectic and mechanisms of state territorialization unfurling at the nexus of globalization, air transport, city-regionalism and air transport. Yet the relations between global air transport, economic development and city-regionalism remain under-theorized. In addition to their global economic functions, the multiscalar connectivity and localized impacts of air transport infrastructure place them at the heart of city-regional politics and planning. Airports are key catalysts for urban growth and economic development in an era of global urbanization.

If done correctly, another set of 2 metal arms appears. Quickly run to the second arm and pull it down with Kinesis. Grab one with Kinesis to hold the outer ring in place. Use it to extend 2 metal arms from above. Circle to the right for Ripper Schematic ( #VI/XXIII ), then snag a Power Node next to the console. Go clockwise on the walkway and find a Gold Semiconductor on top of some machinery. Open the door to find a text log ( #19/48, “Stuck Coffins”) on the console. In a pile of dead corpses in front of the next door hides a dormant Slasher. Return to the door, take the path on your right and expect a Puker guarding a green crate. Soon you’ll get jumped by a Puker and 2 Slashers in the same room. Approach them, and a Slasher bursts out of a tube in the room to your right. This time, take the left-hand path and pay attention to the light sticks in front of you. Just like kit built AKs are a hot commodity in the U.S., so too are Soviet T-72s. Most of the tanks that fit into this category are decommissioned cold war relics of Soviet origin. Most of the controversy surrounding these working specimens stems from their ability to wreak havoc. Most, though not all, of these sorts of tanks are associated with museums. The interest in these machines is almost entirely based upon their value as examples. There are two general classifications of hardware. And there’s a lot more to a tank than the gun, which can be spiked, or filled with concrete easily enough. But you can still have a tank if you’ve got the spare cash. The odds of picking up the necessary license and stamps for a working 125mm gun are - slim. A tank’s cannon is classified as a destructive device by the ATF, and is, therefore, subject to all of the restrictions and regulations of the National Firearms Act and the Gun Control Act. I’d just like to have one to look at.Īnd for folks like me, buying a tank is no more difficult than buying a bulldozer, so long as the gun on the tank has been permanently rendered inoperable. I have no idea what I’d do with a tank, and I know full well I wouldn’t fit inside a tank (I’m terribly claustrophobic). |
