		Aberdeen Harbour is a harbour between Aberdeen and Ap Lei Chau.
		As with all Aberdeens outside Scotland, it was named after the original Aberdeen by nostalgic Scots who colonised Hong Kong.
		Aberdeen is served by Pok Fu Lam Road, and Aberdeen Tunnel and Nam Fung Road through Wong Chuk Hang.

	Utah Fuels The West, Kennilworth Mines
		The Aberdeen property consisted of a tunnel 200 feet in length through which wagons were driven and loaded in a big chamber during the previous fifteen years whenever the citizens of price needed a load of coal.
		The second new tunnel was begun in 1922, with its portal adjacent to the Kenilworth tipple, was 8,100 feet long and was equipped with a double track tram for coal haulage to the surface.
		With the completion of this new tunnel in 1959, coal was gravity fed down to the Castle Gate mine's main haulage tunnels and exited at the Castle Gate portals, adjacent to the coal washing plant, eliminating the cost of hauling coal around the mountain by railroad.

	ch1.8
		The tunnel was to operate at up to 6 atmospheres of pressure and, to achieve low turbulence, its shell had to be larger in diameter and longer than a conventional 12-foot tunnel.
		The pressure and capacity of the 12-foot tunnel were such as to operate a 1-by 3-foot supersonic jet for several minutes -the higher the speed, oddly, the longer the period.
		The windows of a supersonic tunnel had to be large, to encompass a suitably large area of the flow field, and they had to be thick, to withstand the pressures in the tunnel.

	BBC News \| SCOTLAND \| City traffic plan has depth
		Traffic congestion in one of Scotland's biggest cities could be cured by building a tunnel underneath it, according to a scientist.
		Aberdeen's granite would not be an obstacle either, because Mr Hurst said it is ideal for a tunnel and would also produce much-needed aggregate.
		Aberdeen's politicians and business leaders lobbying for a bypass said the tunnel is an idea worth looking at because it has potentially less impact on the environment.

	Signs of an IT Purchasing Recovery
		Recently completed Aberdeen Group research, "IT Purchasing Shows Signs of Stabilizing," has provided two key findings The first is that the IT purchasing decline that began in late-2000/early-2001 appears to have bottomed out.

		Aberdeen expects Linux on commodity Intel servers, Infiniband and Gigabit Ethernet to be among these infrastructure changes.

		Aberdeen's rich oil economy and its position as the regional capital of the north-east have fuelled a greater concentration of retailing activity than in other cities of comparable size.
		Aberdeen, unlike cities such as Newcastle, Liverpool and Glasgow, does not have a profusion of redundant warehouses, factories and textile mills, readily available at low rentals for new occupants and uses.
		There are under-used parts of Aberdeen not far from the city-centre; Bridge St, Queen St, Gallowgate, West North St and the town end of King St come to mind.

		IT purchasing in Canada is expected to go nowhere but up from the depths it reached at the start of the year, and as the spending starts, resellers should be setting their sights on a smaller target market.
		According to Aberdeen, year-over-year revenues among the top 20 IT suppliers declined only 3.5 per cent in the second quarter of 2002, marking it as the best performance of the last five quarters.
		In a second InSight, IT Purchasing: The View from the End of the Tunnel, Aberdeen found that leading IT organizations have not just cut back on their purchases during the current slowdown but have changed the very nature of IT organization and management, productivity, and technology infrastructure.

		The arbitrators ruled in January this year that the level of reasonable but not excessive remuneration for the tunnel company was an internal rate of return ("IRR") on equity after tax of between 15% and 17% over the life of the franchise.
		The tunnel company was therefore entitled to increase the tolls in accordance with the arbitrators' ruling.
		The number of vehicles using the eastern tunnel fell by 22 per cent as of 4pm yesterday, while the Cross-Harbour Tunnel, the cheapest of the three, saw a modest increase of 1 per cent.

		At the Aberdeen Proving Ground, the Army was organizing a ballistics research group to investigate supersonic phenomena; work had begun on the study of airflow over projectiles at supersonic speed.
		One of the new tunnels was designed to use compressed air being discharged from the adjacent 12-foot pressure tunnel.
		In this way two supersonic tunnels were built -one a continuous-flow tunnel and the other an intermittent blow-down tunnel attached to an existing tunnel -one relatively cheaply.

		Price tariffs are displayed clearly inside the taxis; tunnel tolls are extra charges (and the toll for the two cross-harbour tunnels is doubled, as drivers based on Hong Kong Island or in Kowloon usually stay in their own known territory and will return to it after a cross-harbour trip).
		Permitted extra charges are HK$20 for the Cross-Harbour Tunnel and the Eastern Harbour Crossing; HK$5 for the Aberdeen Tunnel; HK$6 for the Lion Rock Tunnel and HK$5 for a radio call.

	'Scare the Natives' World Tour - Instalment Five
		The bus I caught to Aberdeen dropped me off at the side of the harbour much to the delight of the old women lined up along the harbour wall next to their sampans.
		There are actually three gaudy, neon infested restaurants side-by-side in Aberdeen but by far the most famous and the largest of the three is the Jumbo and it was here that I went for dinner that night.
		The tunnel ended at a set of nondescript concrete stairs which came out in the hotel's underground car park from where I had to go up another set of stairs to a door to the outside which didn't indicate that this was the way into the tunnel so it's no wonder I hadn't found it.

		I have limited my list to clothing, but there are outlets for all kinds of things, for example there is a place in the New Territories where you can design your own china as well as buy their pre-made patterns.
		There are several outlets in the Aberdeen area for blue and white porcelain jars, vases etc. There is a guy who makes beautiful silk lampshades starting at about US$45.
		You could combine this with a trip to Aberdeen as it is not too far; could also be combined with a trip to the Prada designer outlet at Space (see below).

		This was in keeping with the practice of granting areas for burial to other communities, such as the Catholics, the Jews and the Parsees, immediately adjoining the main Colonial Cemetery.
		However, in 1970 Hong Kong's Public Works Department informed the Muslims (but not any of the other groups) that all their graves were to be excavated and moved to the Cape Collinson area, to make way for the Aberdeen Tunnel flyover.
		Things have not been much smoother in the post-Handover era, with plans for a new mosque in Sheung Shui in the New Territories stymied by Chinese resistance and local community red-tape.
