An Egyptian-Israeli commercial link was closed Sunday as protesting police push for the release of colleagues kidnapped on Thursday at a border crossing in the Sinai Peninsula.
Officers shut down the Al-Ouga crossing to support coworkers who closed a border checkpoint between Egypt and the Gaza Strip on Friday, Agence France-Presse said.
Gunmen abducted four Egyptian soldiers and three police officers stationed at the Gaza-Egypt crossing, AFP said, citing the state-run MENA news service.
A spate of hostage-takings has rocked the Sinai, which borders Israel as well as Gaza, but they usually last for no longer than 48 hours and are often carried out by Bedouin seeking the release of jailed relatives, according to AFP.
Such abductions have been on the rise since the 2011 uprising that toppled veteran president Hosni Mubarak.
Families of the missing men joined the blockade along the Gaza-Egypt border on Sunday, the Los Angeles Times reported.
An estimated 170 people flooded a building at the crossing to demand a swift rescue.
"We swore we would not open this crossing or leave this place until these soldiers come back, whether dead or alive," one protesting officer, Osama Ali, told the LA Times.
The gunmen are demanding the release of prisoners, Reuters reported, and trapped the seven security forces between the towns of el-Arish and Rafah.
In response, police hung barbed wire and locked up gates at the checkpoint.
A representative of Hamas, which controls Gaza, said the police action jeopardized the negotiations.
"There are promises to follow up on the matter, but in spite of these promises the suffering is still building up. We consider the continued closure of the crossing unjustified and incomprehensible," the spokesman told Al Jazeera.
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi told MENA that he wouldn't negotiate with the gunmen, according to Al Jazeera.
"There are no negotiations with criminals and the awe of the state will be preserved," Morsi said, according to Al Jazeera.
Agence France-Presse contributed to this report.

Discussion in 'Hangout' started by theblack, May 15, 2013.
I read a few randomly , Is bunk = Pump ?
I believe Petrol Bunk is wrong terminology being used here
fftopicThe price diff is just more than Rs. 3 now
In south India people call it as Bunk not pump.
So this is right or wrong terminology ?
What should you actually call it in any part of India
PSU Pumps 54.21 and Shell 57.50. Difference 3.29 bucks.
Well there is a BUNKer underground where the fuel (Petrol/Diesel) is stored and is PUMPed to fill the vehicles.
So either one should be a correct term for me, as long as one can understand what we mean.
They also call them as Filling Stations, so what are they actually Filling?
Agree with Kiran,there is nothing right or wrong,language evolved in the same fashion.
A filling station, fueling station, garage, gasbar (Canada), gas station (United States and Canada), petrol bunk or petrol pump (India), petrol garage, petrol station (Australia, Hong Kong, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa and United Kingdom), service station (Australia), or servo (Australia), is a facility which sells fuel and usually lubricants for motor vehicles.
Further reading
I've always stuck to BP from the past 4 yrs and till date i've had no problems.
Consistently getting 15kmpl . Very few times i've tried other bunks in the city.
Some of which are
IOC - Near NGV [ Pathetic quality ]
HP - near Kengeri on Mysore road. (This is actually a new bunk and seems to offer good quality at a lower price too, i think diesel is about 30ps less here)
just pulling legs of Bangalore guys
Bunker is no way related to Petrol, its military term
Whatever experience, I had in Bengaluru, Shell Petrol Pump, Whitefield even costly was correct measure and clean, so felt satisfied with bike & car efficiency
Separate names with a comma.

Beautiful warm day here in Ireland, just wondering if it would be ok to have a little love in the garden?
...well, Irish - did ya get yor answer?
That would depend. Do you see it as work, or fun?
As sex is sinful and used only as a last resort to "go forth and populate the earth" it must be work. Better not risk it.
It almost makes me want to praise god that I'm agnostic. So I don't have to miss out on some fun on a perfectly good day off.
...ha ha ha....Irish - you go for it, k?...and a few times...add some wine too if ya want...oooohhh the garden sounds like a good spot..... thanks for the laugh!
Considering the true Sabbath is friday night to Saturday night... they are free to do anything they want on Sunday. They just have no clue they break the Sabbath every week... so they are oblivious to the fact that they might as well piss on sunday. The infraction is already committed by then.
Mr. Mason, don't you think that might be a lame argument? Are we 100% sure that Saturday, on the Gregorian calender, coincides with the actual day the Christians believe God rested? Wouldn't it be more logical to assume that if you wanted to follow that commandment the only thing you could do was flip a coin and pick a seventh day?Are we to honestly believe that the days have remained in a particular order over (I'm assuming you are a Bible literalist) six thousand years? If you aren't a literalist it would be even more difficult to believe.Why allow an unsupportable argument to be a bone of contention?
I am. You do not have to be.But the Jewish calender places it on Saturday, also. So yes, I am sure.And it is a well established fact that the Roman Cathoilic Chruch moved it to Sunday to appease, some would say lure, the pagans into thier flock. Sunday was the day of the Roman Sun God, Sol Invictus.How are you today, Emile? Well I hope.http://www.toolong.com/pages/sol_invictus.htm
Fine, as usual. Yourself?I won't argue that point about moving to Sunday. We do know the day was moved, there is some disagreement as to why.But, the problem remains in my mind. How is one to know that the Israelites maintained the integrity of the day? Goodness. The history shows they were, at times, far removed from their faith. That fact alone would make me somewhat leery of chastising others for the day they choose to observe their Sabbath. How would I know for sure I was right? And in the end, if you believe in God, do you think he would care? As long as you were attempting to keep the faith?
As I said above. I do. You do not have to Emile.
Whew. I was afraid you were going to try to drag me down a path I didn't want to go.But, I wasn't attempting to be argumentative. I have truly never understood why this is seen as cause for separation among Christians. They always speak of unity, body of Christ kind of thing, but small things cause discord. It reminds me of when I was young and in church. They used to sing the same song every time they passed the plate and even as a young child I was amazed at the hypocrisy. The song talked about a tie that bound their hearts in christian love. I never saw the tie. I assumed it had been broken and wondered why I was the only who saw that.
The Sabbath is God's day and as such is one of the most precious in Christianity and judaism. So there is a good reason for the devide. God said keep my day and it will show you are faithful to me. And that day was set as the seventh day, not the first. And none can change God's law or days but God. But no argument here, Emile. I do not drag people, I simple stand and fight with passion for those things I believe. As many here do.
And you argue your points quite well. Everyone should stands firmly for what they believe.
Thank you, Emile.
You really must warn viewers not to drink milk prior to posting something like this.
Well, there are limits...
Johann Sebastian Bach, who was extremely religious and wrote plenty of sacred music had 20 children. He didn't have any days off. ...Oh, wait a minute... ...sorry, ...it says here he was a Lutheran... ...that explains it!
Uh...Klara? I'm a Lutheran. Whaddup with that remark may I ask??????
Ps, I don't have 20 kids. I have no kids at all. That doesn't mean I don't have sex on Sunday, just like Bach.
Well, you have TV and the internet. Bach didn't.
..whoaaaa....speaking of sex...i gotta go for a ride and a picnic....later........purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.......
love the pic!
Sex is joyful and fun, relaxing, so relax on Sat or Sunday..or whenever you feel like it. God wants his people to be happy, their eyes shining, getting some exercise, LOL
Relaxation? What are the calories figures for the action per hour? It is said one experiences similar physical effects (sweating, rapid heartbeat) as you would during a vigorous workout.
Depends, if it is short lived, not much, but if it is sweating, mind blowing loud vocal sex, then a whole lot of calories!!!Then you relax and start again!!!
Y'all forgot the Rhythm method...Get the Rhythm going on Monday and it all comes out just fiiine...No,I don't have a clue what that means.It just sounds so damn hot.
I may have some penence to catch up on
Its ok, I managed to stay off the nettles
....ha ha ha...'top o' the morning'
Hey Irish, my late husband was Irish. Sex not allowed on Sundays? Gosh, we must have been sinners! Happy sinners tho' Whoopee!
these photos are halarious. well done guys, well done.

Do you think it's okay to ask for Sundays off although you were hired under the assumption that you could work weekends? I was not born-again three years ago when I was hired at my current job but now I want Sundays off.
by Adrian McDonald4 years ago
This is not a discussion about discrediting the existence of God or discrediting the church as an institution of God. This serves to provide clarity on the issue of Sunday worship and it's legitimacy.
by buddingwriter9 years ago
If catholics and people of most denominations know this, then why do religious ministers and priests, still teach sunday worship to their followers?

Fancying Friday
Jelly beans are my weakness, and my dad just bought a crap load, along with other Easter Candy goodies.

Turns out it's from that show Oddities and this lady is a model turned mortician turned fashion designer. If she ended up on project runway it would make my life.

So this is the inverse of the Chow Crush thread:
The Chow crush is such an innocent state of mind, redolent with the passions of youth.
But now I want to get down and dirty. You know what I'm talking about. Those late night drives, you're craving something quick and easy and available. You'd never eat these things by the light of day, you'd never introduce these food items to your sweet aunt Judy. So 'fess up Chowhounders - what food items make up your Booty Call list?
The classic Montreal Chow Booty Call: the $2.99 shish taouk sandwich from the greasiest, skankiest late night falafel joint, loaded with garlic mayonnaise, day-old shreds of iceberg lettuce, watery chunks of tomato and the ubiquitous pink navret (Turnip pickle). During day light hours, I'll search out more refined versions, but at 2:00 AM, these things seem to satisfy the urge. I'm happy to say, this has replaced the booty call of younger days, the 99 cent slice of pizza that's been sitting under a heating lamp for hours, calling for you to end its misery - this is a booty call that even I won't make anymore...
(Note: I was inspired to start this thread by another Chowhound's mention of booty calls in another thread. My apologies, I can't find that reference for the life of me. My memory ain't what it used to be...)

New Delhi, Feb. 11: From April 1, price labels of all medicines must carry the maximum retail price, having factored in all taxes, including the value-added tax, so that drug stores cant overcharge customers.
Medicine packs will also have to carry the name, price and dates of manufacture and expiry in both Hindi and English. Most drug manufacturers now provide this information only in English.
It will also be implemented from April 1 and by October 2, 2006, everybody has to comply. Necessary amendments would be made as and when required, chemicals and fertilisers minister Ram Vilas Paswan said after the first meeting of the Pharmaceutical Advisory Forum, set up recently.
Drugs' are unaffordable for the masses (and) will have to follow the MRP norm. Nobody should charge more than the MRP from April 1, 2006.
Paswan said the state governments have promised not to levy any tax on cancer and HIV/AIDS drugs provided the Centre, too, does so.
He added that the government is considering a national scheme that provides for health insurance for poor families and ensures that life-saving drugs are available at reasonable prices.
We are (also) assessing the options to provide free drugs to people below the poverty line and will talk to the ministries concerned for the funds required.
The government will try to boost the state-run pharmaceutical units, Paswan said. He added that these public sector units share in the drug manufacturing business is a meagre Rs 250 crore. A target has been set to achieve a Rs 100,000-crore turnover by 2010.
He told reporters the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority and the state drug controllers will be strengthened so that they can monitor the drug price control order efficiently. We need more manpower and teeth and necessary action in this regard would be taken.
The day-long meeting was attended by health ministers and secretaries, drug controllers, officials from the Centre and the states, representatives of the drug industry and consumer groups.
The industry representatives demanded that the excise be brought down from 16 per cent to 8 per cent and the turnover limit of small-scale industries raised from Rs 1 crore to Rs 5 crore. Paswan said a proposal on slashing the excise had been sent to the finance ministry.

I've been asked to suggest a place for a Quaker youth group to go for dinner in Chinatown. I need some help.
The kids are smart and curious and generally well behaved. They live in the city, so they won't be daunted by Chinatown (though none of them have their own suggestions for places to eat there).
My own experience in Chinatown is limited to New Green Bo, which doesn't seem like the right choice (too small and chaotic), and Joe's Shanghai, which seems more viable but I'm not so enthusiastic about (I'd rather go somewhere that's a little more centrally located more in the middle of things).
So -- any suggestions would be much appreciated!

The Infinity Clock - All Digital Analog clock.
The Infinity Clock - All Digital Analog clock.
The Infinity Clock is an all-digital Analog Clock, that has hands made of light echoes. There are no mechanical parts.
The Infinity Clock is an all-digital Analog Clock, that has hands made of light echoes. There are no mechanical parts. Read more
THE INFINITY CLOCK: is an All-Digital Analog Clock, with no moving parts. Born of one of those epiphanies that come from everyday life -specifically, my wife -somewhat angrily - asking me if I knew what time it was.
As a high-tech, electronic counterpart of something that has been around for 100's of years, keeping with some of the standards that analog clocks have followed was paramount in the project. You set the time with a knob, not buttons. There are "light chimes" on the hour, and every quarter-hour. They're round...
From there, I deviate from the norm. I eliminated moving parts, any sounds, and those pesky solid hands. And I made them DEEP. With The Infinity Clocks, and infinity mirrors in general, the "effect" of seeing dozens of times deeper than the thickness of the piece itself is no effect.
Creating these clocks has been a long and trying adventure. I think about the programming and design constantly. Designs come to me from all directions, and everywhere I look, I see something that inspires me to ponder "how does this fit into my plan?"
It's long been a dream to create one of the ideas that I've come up with, and this campaign will help me to realize that dream, and hopefully many others as well.
This is my journey:
Climbing the learning curve(s):
First, I needed to see if I could just buy such a thing. After an exhaustive web-search for such a clock, I found that I was on my own to build one.
Aside from the obvious - mirrors, LEDs, something to hold them in position, and a case to make them look nice, I first needed something to control them. Being that it was to be a stand-alone piece, I needed some kind of microprocessor chip and some programming. I spent another week of research and:
I found The Arduino.
As an open-hardware, open-software microprocessor prototyping circuit board, the Arduino would be an ideal solution. Now to learn how to use it...
Working part-time on this project, I learned how to make single LEDs blink and then multiples at different rates. But using the 13 output ports on the Arduino, I was only able to control 13 LEDs. Or so I thought...
After turning to the amazing Arduino fanbase:
I found CHARLIEPLEXING!
Charlieplexing is a way to control many LEDs, using very few output pins. While it would work for some early prototypes and proof-of-concepts, it wasn't -by any measure- a final solution. But it was a starting point. I needed to create my own Charlieplexing network, as all the existing set-ups were aimed at LED Matrixes or LED Cubes.
Now that I was able to control 60 LEDs (actually 72, but I only needed 60 for my clocks) it was time to take the next step.
I started making stuff:
I took my Arduino, 60 LEDs, my Charplieplexing diagram and some Matte-board (the stuff that photos get masked with when properly framed) and made my first proof-of-concept... It didn't keep accurate time, but it did start to look like what I wanted it to.
This is my first functional proof-of-concept. It showed me that my wiring and programming worked. The 3 solidly-lit group of three LEDs at the ten-o'clock position is the "hours hand", the single solidly-lit LED just above the three o'clock position is showing 12 minutes as the "minutes hand", the faster-moving LED is seconds, and the 4 flashing LEDs shows 12,3,6,9 o'clock positions.
Make it INFINITE
I bought a wall clock at a garage sale, and proceeded it take it apart. Using some mirrored window tint, and a 12" round mirror from the local arts & crafts chain, I made my first actual Proof-of-Concept Infinity Clock.
Taking control:
I concluded that it would be nice to be able to set the time on the clocks. Thinking about how one sets the time on an analog clock, I determined that I needed to use a rotary encoder... So I needed to learn HOW to interface a rotary encoder. Below is my first successful rotary encoder test. It is also the first time I gained accurate control of the LEDs I was going to use for the Color Infinity Clocks.
Class is over (or so I think),let's put it all together:
So I have the ability to address LEDs, to interface with a Human-Interface-Device, and to communicate with external circuit boards.
Let's make something that looks nice now...
This is my first prototype - fully functional on the inside, and similar to what I would like to eventually produce.
This clock is in a high-speed test mode
Make it faster... better.
I knew I needed to make parts that were perfectly round, structurally sound, and had lots of holes. Cardboard and a hole puncher wasn't quite the solution, so I started researching 3-D Printers. While I could build one for about $800, I really didn't want to get too distracted with a machine that would need dozens of hours of assembly and tweaking. That's when I found Solidoodle, and their "plug-n-play" Solidoodle2 3D-Printer. I bought their SD2 Pro model:
With a 8 week + lead time on all orders, I found myself having some time to learn some new tricks...
Class is back in session:
Adventures in 3D Modeling
Over the following months, rather than spin my wheels working on the physical aspects of my Infinity Clocks - only to have to change it all up again with whatever differences the 3D printing would cause, I decided to dive deeper into the programming as well as learning how to design 3-D models that I'd eventually be able to use with my upcoming 3D Printer. I went to town...
I learned how to use Google's Sketchup and realizing it's shortcomings for complicated internal parts, I also took on OpenSCAD - which is a scripting-based 3D modelling package.
I continued to learn better programming methods and refine my digital designs for another 2 months while I awaited delivery of my SD2 3D printer. Again, school was out... (and again, so I thought)
3-D Printing is VERY COOL:
And one fine August afternoon, my new Solidoodle printer arrived! In less than an hour after cracking open the box, I was printing some calibration parts. After about a hour of tweaking and testing, I started my first useful print.
And scale models:
Followed by full size pieces:
Finding new ways to make them look different:
For the following few months, I went on making different designs, refining my 3D modeling and printing skills... I also started making tools to help me work on my project:
I started working on some final designs, how to make things efficiently repeatable, and how to improve the overall results. This led to the creation of a custom circuit board, designed specifically for my application.
ClocKore Circuit Board
Our ClocKore circuit board features an ATMega328 Microprocessor running at 16MHz, FOUR Texas Instruments TLC-5940 Sixteen-channel Pulse Width Modulation LED driver chips, SIXTY 3mm. LEDs, and multiple interfaces - ICSP (for low-level programming), FTDI (for Arduino IDE-based programming), THREE analog inputs, FOUR digital outputs, I2C port (for interfacing with the Real-Time Clock module), ONE RGB LED output, and a dedicated TLC-5940 extender output, for interfacing with our upcoming Infinity Pendulum board and other future enhancements. All Sixty-Four output lines from the TLC-5940 chips are also broken out to headers, for connection to clock faces larger than 80 mm. - which is the diameter of the circle of LEDs
ClocKore in action
Eclipse Clock
Who is going to do all this assembly?
The 3D models are complete, as are the Laser Cutter files. The clocks core programming is 98% complete, with just a few tweaks required based on the final construction dimensions. I will be doing the bulk of the high-tech work; soldering, microprocessor programming and running the Laser Cutter and 3D Printers. My middle son, Zac will be also be doing some soldering as well as running the 3-d Printers and eventually, the Laser Cutter. My oldest son, Alex will be our shipping, receiving and stock manager. My great friend Joe will be doing any wood work, additional cutting, and most of the final assembly. Aside from my son Zac, I have 6 other kids in my house ages 20 to 5 (plus my 10-month-old grandaughter, but she'll just drool on everything, so she stays home), and all of them will be helping out with polishing, packaging, kitting, labeling, shipping, clean-up, and so on.
How we're going to do it.
With newly-designed custom circuit boards, and 3-D printed & Laser-cut parts, LiTime Clocks is on the bleeding-edge of micro-manufacturing technologies. Turning to these emerging manufacturing technologies, we can keep our costs and thus our prices low, while retaining a high level of control and flexibility of the final product. Accountability is key in the growth of a small company.
There are few things as valuable as a PLAN...
Day One: Let's get moving!
Starting at the moment of success with our Kickstarter Campaign, we will mobilize our resources to get into production. We currently have 3 available and appropriate workspaces, and all are perfectly suited to our production needs. After signing our lease on one of the spaces and going about the business of securing electricity, and other utilities, we'll start preparing to move all our existing manufacturing equipment (3D printers, soldering stations, wood shop tools, and testing stations) into the factory immediately. We will pull the trigger on orders with Solidoodle, our plastics suppliers, and our laser cutter supplier.
Day Two - Six: Moving day
Over the following few days, all our existing equipment will find it's way to our new factory site. We have loads of friends with trucks and free time to help the relocation efforts. During this time, we will also be handling additional required tasks, such as running electrical and data lines, installing air-exhaust systems for sawdust and fumes, setting up our computer networks and servers, building shelves and workstations, and, perhaps the most important of all, cleaning the bathrooms.
We'll also start going about the business of setting up our "showroom" which will also double as our conference room AND our video studio.
Day Seven: THE conferences
With 4 main production leaders (plastics, woodworks, electronics, and shipping) and our other staff, a production planning meeting will be critical to starting up our production efforts. Product and process training, methodology, and implementation will all be key topics.
A second meeting will be held later that day for our Customer Service team. We will put into place reactive and success-driven Customer Support processes, to include technical support, order processing, and social media operations.
Day Eight: Break time
Teams are built, not born. It's time to cement our teams together, over some nice summertime comfort foods and company-picnic-style games. We will also start our staff-recognition efforts with a contest for the 3 best recipies: appetizer/finger foods, main course foods, and desert/drink. Of course we will post our favorites to our website, so you can not only enjoy what else we do, but also taste what we do...
Day Nine - Twelve: Make it your own by making your own.
With the processes planned, roles defined, and equipment in place, we will hold some mock-up workdays. These workdays will not only ensure a smooth transition in operation for our staff, but also help build a sense of ownership in everyone's roles. To do that, we will all be making some clocks for the entire staff to bring home. Using the wealth of materials we already have on hand and the newly set-up equipment, everyone will have a chance to try their hands at their roles AND the roles handled by others. Staffers will follow the process, starting from ordering on-line and then proceed to assist in building their clock through all phases of assembly. In a slightly different twist, rather than taking their clocks home with them at the end of the day, their clocks will be shipped to them - just like any other order would be - so they can share the excitement of getting a new toy and have a personal unveiling with their family and friends at home, just like our customers soon will.
Holding pattern: Until Kickstarter Funds arrive
Up to now, all steps taken have been funded with existing LiTime funds. Armed with steadfast planning and determination, our factory should be complete and our staff should be ready. With our Solidoodle 3D printers, we will get a jump on the 3D printing, as our core parts take over an hour each to print. By this time, we should have received most of our materials and any additional manufacturing equipment that we recently purchased should be up and running. We'll start up the processes, and begin manufacturing with the materials available to us at that time.
The first 25 units, reserved for those special Kickstarter contributors, will be assembled in this phase... This will give us the opportunity to add the touches that makes these limited editions unique. Then we have a few inspirational people that I wish to deliver some of our clocks to, and then we do have a few units that we plan to deliver to a few charities - it's always good to give something back.
Money in = money out : purchasing day
Upon availability of our Kickstarter funding, we will spring to action on purchasing all the required materials: Plastics, wood, circuit boards, electronic components, shipping boxes, and more... there is a lot of "stuff" that goes into producing these clocks, and the major portion of this stuff is to be acquired locally and the balance of the requirements come from companies that have stellar reputations for shipping quickly.
At this time, we will also start up a Kickstarter-only contest. We will post a photo of some of our materials or something else in our operations, and ask our contributors to fathom a guess about the picture; how much it weighed, how long it took us to stock it into our stockroom, or some other random fact. The best/closest answer will win a currently undetermined prize - possibly an upgrade to a deluxe Color Infinity Clock or maybe their order will just arrive as TWINS!
Day TWENTY and on... Let's get REAL!
By this time, we will have received all our materials and supplies. We will have soft-started our manufacturing operations. We will have built our teams and helped them fall madly in love with each other.
Now it's D-Day. Laser cutters will be lasing and cutting. 3D printers will be printing in 3D. Circuit boards will be baking. Screws will be turned and LEDs will be lit. Bugs (in the system, not actual insects) will be debugged. Most importantly, CLOCKS will be born! Over the next week, we will be carefully monitoring our operations to ensure a smooth start-up as well as to enhance and streamline our operations.
By day twenty-seven, we should have produced and shipped a few dozen of our first orders. Being that each clock will need to be registered on-line for warranty purposes, we will seize the chance to ask for customer feedback on everything: Product quality, fit and finish, shipping expediency and other aspects will be posed as questions for our clientele. Criticism is constructive.
That's our production plan.
While parts of the plan may be somewhat unconventional for a manufacturing environment, I have seen the positive effects of team-building and mock operations in my work with hundreds of new and updating businesses, and I know that the benefits far outweigh the efforts.
I feel with our thought-out production plan, our key players, and a 55-gallon drum of determination, we'll have clocks flying out the door within 30 days of our Kickstarter Campaign meeting our goal. Of course, we are open to feedback, and welcome any ideas that can help us in our mission. Speak up, Kickstarters, we'll listen!
Risks and challenges
We need:
Space - light industrial space is readily available in our area.
Materials - Using commonly available LED's, microprocessors, plastics, and mirrors, supply lines are numerous.
Equipment -
Laser cutters are readily available, with a 2-4 week delivery time. While Laser Cutting Services are also available locally, such services to have longer lead times than cutting what we need, when we need it.
3D Printers - I already have a very tight relationship with Solidoodle, and they are ready and able to supply me with as many printers as I need, without the standard waiting period.
Reflow Ovens (for baking the circuit boards) are readily available.
Custom circuit boards - 1 week lead time for quantities over 100.
As indicated, all of the tools and materials I need to start production are readily available. Should there be any delays with any one component or material, there are many alternate suppliers, and should a material or component become unavailable or discontinued (highly unlikely, as all the chips and parts are current versions of very common) direct-replacement parts can be used, with no further modification to the hardware design or programming.
As with any plan, there are potential issues.
Staff: not everyone you hire will be a star employee. Having run my own company for 15 years, with dozens of employees throughout that time, I know what to look for and how to correct problems... Of course there is the final decision to eliminate problem staff, if need be.
Suppliers: As a Metro-NY based company, we do have the luxury of being able to choose from a wide range of local suppliers for most of our material needs. Should we run into any issues with our suppliers, there is surely another one just around the corner. We have already either been a customer of many of these businesses, or have struck up an opening relationship with them, so should we need to change suppliers, we will have choice.
Breakdowns: As reliable as our Solidoodle printers and other gear tends to be, things do break sometimes. Most of our production tasks can be done in a variety of ways, but we have chosen the most efficient methods available. While we will have multiples of most of our production equipment, some of the bigger-ticket items are just too expensive to have more than one unit. Should there be any stoppages in the production line due to equipment failure, we will have spares of all wearing parts: Belts and extruders for the 3D printers, replacement laser tubes for the laser cutters, and other wearable parts will be stocked for immediate use in the case of any failures.
Shipping Delays: Though most of our materials will be acquired as locally as possible, some items will come from afar. The IC chips, LEDs and the bare circuit boards are not manufactured here in the U.S. so we are - to some extent - at the mercy of international shipping and customs. Such items are not usually under sharp scrutiny of customs, so we really do not expect to see any delays of that nature, and the past performance of our suppliers of such non-native items have repeatedly shown us that they will be able to deliver on time, on budget, and on specification. Again, sourcing alternate suppliers is a fairly simple feat, as there are dozens of large companies that can meet our needs.
Financial: Our Kickstarter Campaign goal is based on sound mathematics, ensuring that we are well-endowed to start-up the manufacturing process and meet our material and staffing needs through to delivering each and every reward due our donors. Most of the equipment we will need is already owned by us, and the balance is about 20% of our campaign's goal.
Time: Again, my years of business ownership experience comes into play. Our production plan will easily keep pace with rewards due on the Kickstarter Campaign, and the due dates for all our rewards are properly timed to include potential delays.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Memphis Grizzlies - 2/3/14
Memphis Grizzlies (26-20) at Oklahoma City Thunder (38-11)
NBA Basketball: Monday, February 3, 2014 at 8:00 pm (Chesapeake Energy Arena)
The Line: Oklahoma City Thunder -7 -- Over/Under: 188.5 See the Latest Odds
Memphis and Oklahoma City will clash Monday night in what should be a terrific NBA game. The Grizzles have surprisingly won six straight and the Thunder have remained one of the hottest teams in the league over the last month. These teams have met two times earlier in the year and have split those games.
The Grizzles got off to a horrible start to the season but are finally playing the way they're capable of playing. In their last six games they're allowing just 86.3 points, which is simply unheard of. The offense has also improved over their last five games, shooting 49.6 percent from the field and 39.7 percent from beyond the arc. During this winning streak, Memphis has beaten the Rockets twice, Portland on the road and Minnesota on the road.
Justin Ford-USA TODAY Sports
Oklahoma City is coming off a mysterious blowout loss to Washington. The Thunder shot only 39.7 percent from the field and turned the ball over 21 times. Considering the way they've played over the last several weeks, it's fair to chalk that game up as a fluke. OKC is still shooting 52 percent from the field in its last five games and averaging more than 105 points.
The Thunder deserve to be the favorite at home considering they are 20-3 SU in front of their home fans. But the spread is way too high. Memphis has finally turned the corner and is playing like the sleeper in the Western Conference it was supposed to be all season. It's 4-0 against the spread in its last four road games and is 8-0 against the spread in its last eight matchups against teams with a winning SU record.
Memphis has also covered six of its last seven meetings against Oklahoma City.
I think the Grizzles could win this game SU if they continue to play elite level defense. But I'll gladly take the points just to be safe.

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Pope John Paul II leads over one billion Catholics worldwide, but he thinks
of himself as a loving father figure. In this meditative book, he invokes the
titular phrase (words that Jesus Christ used in the Garden of Gethsemane to
call his disciples to him) to urge readers to "go forth full of trust in Christ."
The Pope describes how he himself has done so and starts this book where Gift
and Mystery (1996) left off—with his ordination as a bishop in Poland in
1958. The first chapters are the most strictly autobiographical, but he quickly
turns to matters of faith, discussing everything from the spiritual meaning of a
bishop's miter and crosier to the need for clergy to talk with scientists and
other intellectuals. Naturally, since he has served as a bishop (of Krakow,
of Rome) for almost 50 years, the Pope devotes a lot of space to a bishop's
duties. His discussion of these duties provides openings for him to remember
important occasions in his past, such as his pastoral visit to the shrine of Our
Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico. Later chapters deal with the Second Vatican
Council, which he participated in as a young bishop. The prose style is that of a
many-faceted sermon, with Biblical quotations woven throughout and themes such
as the importance of telling the truth, staying celibate and giving to charity
heavily reinforced. Although the book occasionally feels like a guide to the
Episcopal ministry, it's sure to gratify those hungry for his instruction and
inspiring faith, as well as non-Catholics interested in his philosophy.

Product Description:
Following the success of the international bestseller Crossing the Threshold
of Hope, Pope John Paul II provides the world with a glimpse into his past in
RISE, LET US BE ON OUR WAY. Chronicling the years he spent as a bishop and
later archbishop in Krakow, Poland through his election as the first Polish Pope
in 1978, he recounts everything from communist efforts to suppress the church
in Poland to his efforts to adopt a new and more open style of pastoral
ministry. With recollections on his life as well as his thoughts on the issues
facing the world now, Pope John Paul II offers words of wisdom in this book that
will appeal to people of any faith looking to strengthen their spirituality.

Fat transfer for undereye hollows/tear troughs?(32 Posts)
Hi all, just wondering if anyone here has had fat transfer rather than fillers to the tear trough area? I've got genetic hollowness under there that's only become a problem from my late 20s, but it's getting worse and worse as time goes on.
I'm attracted by fat transfer rather than fillers as fat transfer is permanent while fillers need to be repeated, and I'd much rather have the hollowness sorted once and for all, rather than forever have to go back to get the filler, which would work out much more expensive in the end.
I've seen it recommended to use an oculoplastic surgeon for anything to do with fat transfer around the eyes, and Dr Jesper Sorensen (http://sorensenclinic.com/aesthetic-surgery/face/fat-transfer/) seems to tick all the boxes - anyone have any experience with him, or just with fat transfer in general?
Not seen anyone about this yet, just gathering info!
No experience but you need to be really careful of anything permanent because even though it's your own fat, the skill needed to use it properly will vary between drs.
Thanks - yeah, totally agreed, was just why I was wondering if anyone had any experience of Dr. Sorensen as he seems really qualified.
Anyone ever had any fat transfer done to the face?
There's a website called look your best which might be able to help.
Hi, Just by chance saw your message so have registered on mums net so that I can send you a message!
I have had work done by Jesper and this did include fat transfer.
Would be happy to answer any questions you have.
Had last lot done on valentines day!
hi OP. My sister had fat transfer done by jasper (to the face - her cheekbones and to even out imperfections etc). I've asked her about this - she said he was kind and extremely competent, and she did get a lovely result...
Don't know about under eye area though and sis didn't have that. Ask lots of questions at your consultation!
Im also looking at consulting with Dr Sorensen for the same problem, we should message and swap info?
Jesper Sorenson performed a blepharoplasty for me in January this year. I cannot recommend him highly enough. I was out with makeup on in ten days. No one could tell and I got several compliments even that soon about how well I looked. Three weeks on no one would guess id had plastic surgery even without makeup. I have no scarring unless you are really searching for it. Really close you can see a faint line at the sides- nothing on the lids. The lines are so faint only three months on that I am sure they will be gone soon. They look more like a very tiny facial line than a scar- don't imagine red lumpy ridges. You won't get them with this surgeon. Dr Sorenson is a charming gentle man who can work miracles. He deserves to be recommended but I have been able to keep my op a secret from everyone. So here is my anonymous recommendation.
I'm considering getting this done, too. I have zero wrinkles or even fine lines at 37, but the hollowness under my eyes is terrible. It's a solid genetic imprint and doesn't vary when I lose or gain weight. Please post results about how you get on. I'm in the US, and there are several facial surgeons close to me who are renowned for fat grafts.
Interesting subject, it does sounds as if fat transfer has advantages over fillers.
I am considering a fat transfer with Sorensen. If anyone has had a procedure with him I would be very grateful for some information.
I'd like to revive this thread, like the OP am considering this procedure for hollowing. I'd be grateful to hear about any experiences, and for any recommendations. Sorensen sounds wonderful, but probably beyond my budget, Brian Leatherbarrow seems eminently qualified... Please help,
shit a bit scared, but tired of looking tired / ill!
This is an American site but gives the good and bad of cosmetic procedures
Hi, I had juvederm tear trough fillers last summer, had researched fat transfer as well. Unfortunately my research pointed to a couple of documented cases of blindness following fat transfer, it's because there is a chance fat droplets can migrate into the capillaries around the eyes and cause blockages in the blood vessels in the retina which is very bad news. (I work in ophthalmology by the way)
I can't recommend juvederm enough, I had to have two doses to get a good result but it seems to be lasting well.
Thanks for the links and info. Sometimes it seems insane to care enough about dark hollows to think of doing something about it... But equally it is miserable looking miserable if something could be done with 'negligible' risk! I swither endlessly.
I hoped in the hands of an oculoplastic specialist using a cannula it would be relatively safe, but hadn't come across this particular issue in my research. Did I understand right, the droplets migrated across the capillary membrane, rather than entering a blood vessel through direct accidental injection?
Unfortunately HA not an option, and the surgeons who are really phenomenally qualified to inject anything near eyes say they don't do this. Sigh.
Hi I know this thread was some time ago but I am interested in facial fat transfer by Dr Sorensen, I have emailed for information several times but have yet to get a reply. Is anyone able to tell me how much fat transfer to the face costs with this doctor? I don't even have an idea of cost. Thanks for any information
Hi , i too am thinking of doing fat transfer , can anyone who has had this procedure done to their face in the uk let me know if they are happy with the result. I am also looking into Dr Sorensen as he seem to be the best . He charge �250 for the consultation and knwo he isnt cheap so anyone who has had experience with him please let me know. thank you.
Jesper Sorensen performed a fat transfer procedure to my lower eye (tear trough), forehead, temple and upper lip area in December 2014. The results are fabulous and very natural looking. The £250 consultancy fee is a one off charge and all further appointments are free. I made 2 appointments before the operation and had several follow up appointments thereafter - which were included in the initial consultation fee.
I would recommend him without hesitation.
Hi Karryn. I have a consult with Dr Sorensen next Friday regarding fat transfer under my eyes which are a big hollow. Do you mind me asking roughly what the cost was and what your recovery was like ? Thanks so much. Chris
Hi Chris
Below is an extract from the quote I received in June 2014.
'The initial consultation fee is £250 and the fee for periorbital fat transfer is £3,400 as a day case procedure.'
I was also quoted £2,600 for any additional fat transfer.
I ended up having blepharoplasty, fat transfer and a brow lift and that cost £11,780. It is expensive but worth every penny.
I was very bruised and swollen for 2 weeks post op. By week 3 most of the bruising was obscured by my glasses.There was never any pain and I was back at work 10 days after the operation.
Happy to answers any other questions.
Thank you so much that's really useful. I presume hospital fees need to be added to that also.
I just hope I'll have enough fat for fat transfer as a make. I'm hoping they don't need as much.
It's hard to find much information on Dr Sorensen given there's no before and afters of his work etc. With that said he seems very skilled at what he does. It would be great to share more about your experience.
My email is christopherbrowndesi
I'm glad you are happy and had a great result. Hoping for similar.
i nee dsome advice on fat tarnsfer
who did you get them done by?
Hi All,
I went to see Jesper Sorensen and was really impressed with his consultation last week. I had bad surgery about 8 years ago in the states and have been trawling the earth seeking a competent surgeon to fix the mess the last surgeon did. I have probably had 20 consultations from London, NY to LA, only one other surgeon that impressed me was in LA , Dr Haworth, but after seeing Jesper Sorensen I am convinced he is my revision surgeon going forward.
My problem now is that I am so anxious in trusting any surgeon ever, after what I went through.
Is there any one out there that can talk me through their past experiences with Sorensen or about to have surgery with Sorensen and would like some support them, Id be happy to support some one via email who is going to have surgery with him shortly.
Please contact me asap, as I am looking forward to going ahead with this
if I get enough replies from here.
Really looking forward to chatting to anyone over Sorensen..
Sad Scared Charlie x

Buy Now vs Add To Cart on SEO services
I'm torn between two options. On my web site buybacklinkscheap.com right now I have "buy now" button. I was thinking about switching it to "Add to cart"
In your opinion, is it good / better idea, or should I just leave it how it is? Pretty much all of my customers by only one package at the time, but I also want to think about those who want to purchase multiple packages at the same time.
What are your opinions on this? Guys that offer similar services, do you use buy now or add to cart?

Field Testing
Wireless Research Center of NC Secures Three Portable Towers, Establishing Portable Wireless Network Testing
Testing for rural internet and next generation communications now viable throughout NC
The Wireless Research Center of North Carolina (WRC) has acquired three portable radio towers, thanks to a grant from the Golden LEAF Foundation. This expands WRC's support of wireless technology expansion throughout North Carolina.
The self-supporting towers along with National Instruments equipment will be used to support the design, development and deployment of fixed wireless networks for a wide range of services throughout the state.
- These services will include the delivery and expansion of rural broadband connectivity.
- Supporting telemedicine
- Working with Utilities and Communities on smart metering Network
- Developing advanced air-to-ground networks for commercial aviation and unmanned air systems (UAS).
- The Center will also be working with communities to expand their emergency service networks.
- 3 -106' Aluma Towers TM5370
- Powered with an onboard 10Kw diesel generator for remote site use
- 30amp shore power inlet (NEMA L14-30) with automatic power transfer switch for easy access to available power
- Multiple antenna mount capability
- 4' x 2' NEMA secure enclosure with 19' racking
- Radio Equipment
- National Instruments Vector Signal Transceivers
- Combined vector signal analyzer and generator in one package
- Built-in support for many wireless standards including GSM, WCDMA, LTE, and WLAN
- Reprogrammable FPGA for maximum flexibility in radio applications
- Up to 4 simultaneous wideband channels supports MIMO testing
- Agilent/Keysight Field Fox N9918A
- The ultimate portable signal analysis tool
- Spectrum analyzer, vector network analyzer, cable analyzer, vector voltmeter, and more
- Built-in GPS
- Rugged, MIL-spec construction
Demand for access to reliable high-speed internet is increasing exponentially. Communities outside of the largest metropolitan areas will require fixed wireless networks to provide Internet access, in order to deliver services equivalent to those offered in the urban center of North Carolina where extensive fiber coverage exists. The use of the portable towers will facilitate the expansion of existing wireless networks and the introduction of emerging technologies that support greater connectivity.
SmartSky Networks is an emerging Charlotte-based corporation that recently announced the deployment of a nationwide 4G terrestrial network. The use of the portable towers allows SmartSky Networks flexibility during its initial stages of deployment.
Access to these capabilities will benefit a broad range of initiatives throughout the state. The WRC works closely with the NC Department of Commerce, the NextGen Air Transportation (NGAT) Center at North Carolina State University, the North Carolina Defense Business Association (NCDBA), the Research Triangle Cleantech Cluster (RTCC), and other organizations throughout the state.

Garrett yet to receive Gunns mill management plans
Federal Environment Minister Peter Garrett says he has not yet received most of the management plans for the Gunns pulp mill project in northern Tasmania.
Mr Garrett has approved four of the 16 planning modules for the $2 billion development, but says the rest have not been finalised.
He has told ABC local radio that Gunns has 11 weeks to submit all of the plans for assessment.
"I understand that there's a number of those modules that are currently with the department and I expect to consider them when they come from the department to my office, as I did with those original four modules," he said.
"Once they were finalised, in their final form between the department and the proponent, in this case Gunns, then they come to me and as I assessed the four modules up to now, I'll assess these modules in the same way."
He says the department and the company are still working on more for his consideration.
"If there's going to be an extension of time that is sought, then I'll consider it when it's been made," he said.

How to sign the right keynote speakerBy Kim Benjamin
15 Mar 2017
A keynote speaker's purpose is to set a general tone for an event, so it is vital to find an appropriate one. "Some of the most important things to consider include the message you want guests to take away, whether to opt for an in-house or external speaker or a mix of both, and whether the speaker's personality is in line with the company's image," says Jed Mok, general manager, creative and strategy planning, at Pico Singapore.
Are you seeking a speaker who can provide content, entertainment or a theme that is more motivation-based? You can source speakers in a number of ways, via colleague recommendations, checking a speaker's website and referencing videos of the speaker's past presentations on YouTube.
"It's best to speak directly with the speaker and insist that you want to brief them directly so that you can get a sense that this person is the 'right' one for your event," says Sean Rach, chief marketing officer at Prudential Corporation Asia.
Amway Indonesia's manager, special events, Sorin Widjaja, adds that the keynote speaker should also relate to the audience, so consider demography and age, alongside male/female ratios.
If budget is no issue, then a name is always a nice to have, and can act as a drawcard. Without a well-known name, more time and thought needs to be given to the message/outcome that attendees will get from your proposed speaker. "Having someone cover a topic that is a little 'aspirational' is always good, or an influential peer," says Melanie Ricketts, event director at cievents. "People are always interested in hearing from someone they can identify with, or learn from and someone who's a little left of centre can't hurt either."
For ticketed events, engaging someone who is willing to create awareness using their own networks is always advantageous.
