No. 2 (band)
No. 2 was an American indie rock band that originated in Portland, Oregon in 1996 and consisting of Neil Gust (guitar and vocals), Gilly Ann Hanner (bass, backing vocals; later to be replaced by Jim Talstra) and Paul Pulvirenti (drums).
History
No. 2 was formed by frontman Neil Gust after the breakup of Heatmiser. The band's name is a reference to the fact that this was Neil Gust's second band with Virgin Records:
The band quickly picked up where Heatmiser left off, with songs on their debut album No Memory that echoed the sound and feel of Mic City Sons. No Memory quickly earned the band praise for its melodic hooks and finely crafted songs. No. 2 began small, with Neil Gust asking a few friends to help record some material for a new album.
The band's first release, a 7" vinyl called "Allistair Chestnut", was released in mid-1999. The A-side, titled "Allistair Chestnut", is a song about falling for someone who is more interested in 'playing the field' than a relationship. The band's first full album, No Memory, was released within months of the "Allistair Chestnut" 7". A full tour followed, mostly opening for former bandmate Sam Coomes's band Quasi. A second album, What Does Good Luck Bring? followed in 2002.
N° 2
N° 2 is the second album by French musician Serge Gainsbourg, released in 1959. It features Gainsbourg backed by the Alain Goraguer Orchestra. The album was not well received at the time of its release.Music journalist and Gainsbourg biographer Sylvie Simmons described the album as "...mutant jazz-pop engaged in an unnatural act with chanson, French literature and Americana..."
The album cover is a reference to French author and musician Boris Vian. The cover of Lovage's 2001 debut album pays homage to the cover.

ATC2K
ATC2K is an acronym for the Oregon Scientific All-Terrain-Camera 2000, a pocket-sized camera which can be used as a helmet cam or action cam.
The ATC2K is made waterproof through the use of two O-rings coated in silicone grease. The ATC2K is waterproof to 3 meters (10 feet).
The ATCK2 records directly onto an SD card. The ATC2K supports SD cards of up to 2GB and has 32mb of inbuilt memory.
The ATC2K offers 3 resolutions (640×480, 320×240, 160×120) and 2 frame rates (30fps and 15fps). On the highest settings a 2GB SD card would record an hours worth of footage.
The original version was not compatible with existing technologies such as RAM Mount hardware, but had its own mounting system. The 2008 version and newer ATC3K and ATC5K cameras include a tripod mount that can be used with a universal tripod screw.

Automatic train control
Automatic train control (ATC) is a general class of train protection systems for railways that involves a speed control mechanism in response to external inputs. ATC systems tend to integrate various cab signalling technologies and they use more granular deceleration patterns in lieu of the rigid stops encountered with the older automatic train stop technology. ATC can also be used with automatic train operation (ATO) and is usually considered to be the safety-critical part of the system.
Over time there have been many different safety systems labeled as "automatic train control". The first was used from 1906 by the Great Western Railway, although it would now be referred to as an AWS (automatic warning system). The term is especially common in Japan, where ATC is used on all Shinkansen (bullet train) lines and on some conventional rail lines as a replacement for ATS.
