Juki's FX-3 Modular Chipshooter |
Written by Equipment Advances | |||
Friday, 29 February 2008 19:00 | |||
Juki's high-speed modular chipshooter, the FX-3, features two placement stations, each with two head beams. In each placement station, the two heads are arranged in front and behind each other, alternately carrying out component picking and placement. The four high-speed assembly heads each support six nozzles, for a total of 24 nozzles. The component placement range is from 01005 (0402 metric) through 33.5 mm sq. Each head is driven by an overhead x-y dual gantry positioning system with closed-loop independent linear servomotors and magnetic linear encoders. The y beam has dual synchronized linear motors for each station, both left and right. Each nozzle is controlled with independent z and u AC servomotors featuring new encoders with a resolution of 260,000 pulses per revolution, for reliability and accuracy. Control of each nozzle is possible without affecting other nozzles. This reportedly aids machine uptime, as well as time between repairs. The design results in a placement rate of 60,000 cph (0.06 sec./chip), according to IPC-9850. The head unit is equipped with a new precision laser alignment and control system for both upper and lower rotary axes to improve efficiency. Placement is done via exclusive laser centering using the new CyberOptics LNC60 system. The LNC60 laser uses novel Tangent Line Centering, which takes multiple views of the component by rotating it 360° through the laser to achieve a full outline of the component. The LNC60 measures the component's center, dimensions and angular correction in a single sweep. The machine features 1 µm linear encoders on the x and y axes. Combined, these enhancements improve placement accuracy to ±50 µm (Cpk >/= 1). Other important features of the LNC60 laser include the exact height of the nozzle tip, bent nozzle detection, and a tombstone pick. Additionally, it ensures a component is present before placement, and that the component has been placed successfully. The LNC60 laser measures components while they move from the pick to the placement site and never requires moving to a stationary camera or Line Scan Camera because it is built into the head, creating an efficient method of component measurement. The optical design of this laser has been simplified to provide higher reliability in a thinner and lighter package. The head unit is designed for easy maintenance. Vacuum filters have been moved for better access and reportedly require no adjustments or calibrations after replacement. Laser centering measures the components on the side. It is not affected by variations of component color or width/length; unlike vision centering, there is no need to edit component data for different component vendors. Component data can be completed by entering approximate dimensions, type and packaging information. The exact dimensions and lead count/pitch are measured by the machine and automatically entered into the component data. A vacuum self-calibration function eliminates the need for a vacuum "blowing-off" during placement, which can disturb neighboring components or solder paste. Standard features include:

Found January 13, 2013 on
Fox Sports Southwest:
Quarterback Casey Pachall, who left the TCU football team during the season to enter a substance abuse facility, is back at TCU.
Pachall, who was arrested in October for suspicion of driving while intoxicated, has re-enrolled at TCU and is once again part of the football program the school confirmed Sunday.
Classes at TCU begin Monday and Pachall will begin working out with the team.
Pachall will have a year of eligibility remaining this fall and could provide TCU a lift at quarterback.
Pachall played in the first four games for TCU in 2012, throwing 10 touchdown passes and leading TCU to a 4-0 start. Following his arrest and an indefinite suspension, he was replaced by redshirt freshman Trevone Boykin and TCU went 3-5 with Boykin as the starter.
Before Pachall's arrest, TCU considered moving Boykin to tailback because of injuries.
Pachall had a big sophomore season after taking over for Andy Dalton, setting school records for completions and passing yards to go along with 25 touchdown passes.

Super Majoritarianism and the Endowment Effect
The American and some other constitutions entrench property rights by requiring super majoritarian voting as a condition for amending or revoking their own provisions. Following Buchanan and Tullock [5], this paper analyzes individuals' interests behind a veil of ignorance, and shows that under some standard assumptions, a (simple) majoritarian rule should be adopted. This result changes if one assumes that preferences are consistent with the behavioral phenomenon known as the "endowment effect." It then follows that (at least some) property rights are best defended by super majoritarian protection. The paper then shows that its theoretical results are consistent with a number of doctrines underlying American Constitutional Law.Download Info

Shots missed not taken by each team need to be taken into account. In your scenario who has the rebounding advantage if the team that took 60 shots shot 50% and the team that took 48 shots shot 33%? The 60 shots yielded 30 rebounding opportunities and the 48 shots yielded 32 rebounding opportunities. You also have to take both team's missed free throws into the equation.
Right idea, I just think you have to take it further for it to mean anything.

In 1968, the six districts of Neihu, Nangang, Muzha, Jingmei, Shilin and Beitou were rezoned and integrated into Taipei City, and the population at the end of that year totaled 1,604,543. By the end of 2011, the population reached 2,650,968 (males 1,276,343; females 1,374,625). Compared with 2010, the total population increased by 32,196 (males up by 13,789; females up by 18,407). 1. Demographic DistributionTaipei's population is distributed amongst a total of 12 districts. Due to the varying topography, economic development and time of development, the population is unevenly distributed. Daan, and Shilin districts are the most populated. (1) Population DensityBy the end of 2011, the population density was 9,753 people per square kilometer. By district, Daan was the most densely populated with 27,624 people per square kilometer, whereas Beitou was the most sparsely populated with 4,440 people per square kilometer. (2) Births and DeathsThe crude birth rate in 2011 was 9.54, a 2.45 increase over the previous year. The crude death rate was registered at 6.07, indicating a 0.18growth from the previous year. Social, environmental and economic factors have affected people's willingness to give birth, causing the birthrate to flag. However, thanks to the "Have a Care-Free Pregnancy" campaign by the Taipei City Government in 2011, the birthrate began to rise. The city continues to see a rise in the elderly population in the last decade. To prevent the rapid decline of population and the excessively graying population from affecting economic development in the future, the government is currently hardpressed to support reasonable population growth.
2. Population Make-upFrom demographic data, one can thus better understand the makeup of the population and analyze the origins and nature of social issues and the relationship between population and social economy. Population make-up is hence an important indicator of social and economic changes and is crucial for the government to use as a frame of reference in formulating current and future social welfare policies. (1) Age DistributionsGenerally speaking, the more people who are able to work, the lower the dependency ratio; the more the labor force is engaged in productive activities, the more beneficial it is towards economic advancement. By the end of 2011, the younger population (between the ages of 0-14) was 382,966; the working adult population (between the ages of 15-64) was 1,929,803, while the elderly population (above 65) was 338,199. The dependency ratio was 37.37%, down by 0.24% from the previous year. (2) Marital StatusIn 2011, the number of couples who registered for marriage was 21,373, and the crude marriage rate was 8.11; the number of couples filing for divorce was 5,841, and the crude divorce rate was 2.22 Compared with the previous year, the crude marriage rate was up by 1.48, while the crude divorce rate was down by 0.11.
Unit: %
(3) Distribution of Aboriginal PeopleTaiwan's aboriginal tribes consist of the Amis Tribe, Atayal Tribe, Paiwan Tribe, Bunun Tribe, Rukai Tribe, Puyuma Tribe, Tsou Tribe, Saisiat Tribe, Yami Tribe, Thao Tribe, Kuvalan Tribe, Taroko Tribe, Sakizaya Tribe and Saideke Tribe. By the end of 2011, the aboriginal population of Taipei City was 14,340. The tribe with the largest population was the Amis, while the Thao, and the Sakizaya had the least number of residents. A great majority of the aborigines live in Neihu, Wenshan, and Nangang districts. (4) New Immigrant and Foreign PopulationThanks to Taiwan's increasingly frequent political, economic, societal and cultural exchange activities with other nations, Taiwanese citizens' worldview has been expanded, inspiring an increase in marriages to foreign and Mainland Chinese people By the end of 2011, Taipei had a population of 42,952 new immigrants, the majority being Mainland Chinese spouses, at 31,315, with other foreign spouses totaling 11,637 in number; the majority of new immigrants were residents in the Wanhua (5,578), Wenshan (4,410), and Xinyi (4,249) districts. In order to assist new immigrants in adapting to the local society, and to help local residents grow more open-minded to other cultures, the Taipei City Government has launched a series of workshops and classes in succession, including the New Immigrant Growth Camp, study groups in immigrant workers' native tongues (Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Thai), computer lessons and performance workshops.
Globalization and the rapid spread of information have enabled the transmission of information all the more ubiquitous: convenient expedient transportation shortens distances between people, and is gradually breaking down boundaries in the world. Inspired by prospering economic and construction development, and a robust transportation network, the city often hosts large international conferences, events and exhibitions. There is also an increasing number of foreigners attending school here, and taking part in international inspection tours and business activities.By the end of 2011, the number of foreigners residing in Taipei was 58,131; among them, 24,963 Indonesians accounted for the majority, followed by 5,857 Filipinos and 5,540 Japanese expats.

| Posted almost 2 years ago @gracee eventhough they said that, I think it would be better if you get your local license first.. It would be so much easier for you toget your eligibility. I applied to board of nursing last year and they denied my application. But most of my friends that has local license got approved. |

| Posted almost 2 years ago Hi Teresa! I am a BSN graduate from Bacolod City, Philippines. I am a U.S Citizen since I was a kid and finished my education at the Philippines. Right after graduation my parents sent me back to the US. Now I'm in between choosing which states to take the NCLEX. I live in Illinois and they require a local RN license which I don't have and now I am choosing either Florida and California. I have noticed that you are very active and alert in responding to all our posts and concerns and we are so thankful for that. Knowing this, I guess you have been reading a lot of posts about California. May I ask your opinion? Should I give California a shot? I have been reading all these posts about the many requorements California has and I don't want to end disappointed because I am on my own now and I don't want to waste my money. |

| Posted almost 2 years ago Hiya, It's nice to meet you.. So my opinion is for you to call the places (BON's) that you would like to apply for first and just see what the qualifications are exactly.. I believe in going right to the source instead of the "I thinks"..I appreciate other's expierences, but I think that every one has a different expierence, no matter how slight it may be. It seems to be that California is extremely dificult, but it also seems to me that it may be the state of acceptance into the field of nursing.. Best of luck to you.. Please keep us posted.. Teresa |

Dutch hope to invent foods that prevent obesity
WAGENINGEN, Netherlands
- Tweet
- Share this
WAGENINGEN, Netherlands (Reuters) - Scientists in the Netherlands are developing a new generation of foods that can help prevent obesity by making people eat less, a research institute said on Thursday.
The Top Institute Food and Nutrition (TIFN), funded by the Dutch government and food groups like CSM Anglo-Dutch Unilever, is also developing food ingredients which can stop an obese person from developing diabetes.
"We are working on certain food ingredients, which provoke more satiety than others do on the long run, so that our partners can use them in food manufacturing," said Professor Robert-Jan Brummer, program director at TIFN.
"These products should trigger satiety and stop us eating more and more. They should also meet our dietary requirements, have a very good taste and be enjoyable to eat," he told Reuters.
Brummer declined to give details, saying it was a commercial secret, but added these nutrients could eventually be used in any kind of food from drinks to spreads and bread.
Several other research centers in the world are working to develop nutrients that could prevent obesity but Brummer said that none of them, including his own, had achieved big breakthroughs so far.
"My feeling is that we will see a breakthrough in the next five years or so," he added.
Obesity is on the rise in many countries, including the United States, where 60 percent of the population is overweight or obese, Britain and elsewhere in Europe.
It is clearly a matter of people eating more calories than they burn off, but experts argue over whether diet or exercise is more important.
The Dutch public health agency concluded in a research report last ear that poor diet was as deleterious to health as smoking. It said 25 percent of deaths and serious illness caused by overweight and obesity would be avoided if adults shed 3 kg.
Brummer said his institute was developing food ingredients that can raise insulin sensitivity and prevent an obese person from developing diabetes, as well as looking for novel dietary ingredients, which can lower high blood pressure.
The TIFN has invented ingredients that can keep bread crust crispy for longer and a technology that lowers the total fat content in foods without compromising the taste.
Brummer said his institute was one of the first in the world to prove that folic acid vitamins can improve brain function and hearing in elderly people.
The European food industry, faced with increasing demand for healthier foods and competition from lower cost regions, is investing more in R&D to meet the challenge.
"Twenty years ago, the industry was only interested to sell as much as possible. That has changed, the industry now feels responsibility to respond to the health situation," Brummer said.
"On the other hand, such innovative products have higher margins than those of selling a tomato or a bottle of milk."

February 22nd 2012 @ 5:01am
Johnno said | February 22nd 2012 @ 5:01am | Report commentSo where does Gus Gould and Jack Gibson fall into this category, I wonder and Craig Bellamy and even big Mal 6 straight origins.
Micheal Hagan won a title in 2001 and helped Mal as Neil Henry has done too in those origin wins.Brian Smith is a good coach but has not won a title so can't put him in the top category . Bob Fulton I think and i am not a Manly fan but he won a few title a few grand final runner ups too, and kangaroo tour victories , and Ashes wins at home and 95 world cup win at the old wembley, has to be looked at as one of the great coaches just as much as Tim Sheens, both Tim and Bob had star club sides and won titles. Still how Tim Sheens won the NRL title in 2005 with the team he had (a very raw and young Benji Marshall i will never know).
Was Scott Prince like Andrew Johns, and that dominant a half back who did not needs his forwards as much im not sure. Joey in his final part of 2006 did not win many matches despite playing great coz he did not have a dominant pack of forwards at Newcaslte in 2006. All halfbacks need good forwards even joey.
Maybe the 2005 team of Todd Payten and Skandalis, a young robbie farah, and some others trying to remember a forwad by the surname futon, and others maybe they were a class team the 2005 west Tigers, just so young blokes like Pat Richards too.
But Bob Futlon sure could coach despite having good teams. And a special mention for Malcom Reilly who coached the Newcastle knights 97 grand final win. And he coached great britian teams too that beat and got mighty close to winning some ashes series vs the kangaroos.
Even Ellery Hanley as coach of great Britian in 94 did a good job. What a player Ellery Hanley was though.
Fatty won an origin in 95 with no coaching experience but probably can't be considered great and had 1 more origin form memory and has been at 9 and done the forty show ever since with guys like sterlo and matey, and chief, . Matt johns apparently good feedback they say he would be a good head coach as he has done some consulting in coaching for some teams.
If Matt Johns wanted to be and move away form media commitments. -

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Differential Geometry—mainly of curves and surfaces—represented from the very beginning a natural and standard tool of Imaging and Graphics. However, only with the true advent of the "Digital Age", has Discrete Differential Geometry been developed and recognized as a self-standing, active and important field of study.
Here, "discrete" means that one does not merely restrict himself only to approximations, but rather operates on a deeper level, by considering various possible discretizations of such classical notions as curvature, geodesics and connection, to mention just some of the most basic and essential ones.
The ensuing applications are manifold, and range from sampling and reconstruction to segmentation, and from smoothing and denoising to registration and modeling. Moreover, they transcend their specific boundaries (already far from narrow), and have applications in Medical Imaging, Pattern Recognition, Manifold Learning and Robotics.
It is the goal of this Special Issue to explore, through its constituting papers, this multifaceted, dynamic and ever-evolving field of study.

Moving up Iowa State promotes Morgan to replace EustachyPosted: Wednesday May 14, 2003 4:27 PMUpdated: Wednesday May 14, 2003 6:27 PM
AMES, Iowa (AP) -- Wayne Morgan, an assistant under former Iowa State basketball coach Larry Eustachy, was introduced as the new head coach Wednesday, ending a tumultuous two weeks in Cyclone athletics. Morgan, 52, said his hiring was "the greatest thing in my life" and called for unity as the university tries to put the controversy that led to Eustachy's resignation behind it. Eustachy resigned last week after publication of photographs showing him drinking and kissing young women at a fraternity party in Columbia, Mo., after Iowa State's Jan. 21 loss. Morgan said it's time for the university to move forward. "We have special fans here and we have special people, and with the difficult time we've been through it's time for us to come together," Morgan said. "I want us to all come together and support this great university, support this wonderful program." He promised to maintain the high-quality basketball Cyclone fans are used to seeing. "We will try and play as hard as you're use to seeing us play," he said. But he predicted there would be some changes on the court, including "a little more up-tempo, a fun and exciting brand of basketball." University President Gregory Geoffroy and athletic director Bruce Van De Velde said Morgan fits the description of the kind of person the university was looking for in a new coach. "We were looking for someone with trust, honesty and integrity, a proven national recruiter with demonstrated success," Van De Velde said. Iowa State also wanted someone with coaching success as both an assistant and head coach. "And most of all a player's coach, who can develop, teach and mentor with young men," Van De Velde said. Geoffroy said Morgan has displayed the talent, skill and energy to become the new coach for a Cyclone team that finished last season 17-14 overall and 5-11 in the Big 12. Morgan came to Iowa State last summer after six years as head coach at Long Beach State, finishing with a 91-84 record. His 1999-2000 team finished 24-6 and won the Big West Conference championship. Prior to that he spent 12 years as an assistant at Syracuse and held assistant coaching jobs at Xavier and Dartmouth. Morgan and his wife Maribeth have three children. Van De Velde said details of Morgan's four-year contract could be worked out as early as the weekend. In the meantime, he declined to talk about how much Morgan will be paid. With base pay of $220,000 and $880,000 in guaranteed outside income, Eustachy received $1.1 million a year and was Iowa's highest-paid state employee. Geoffroy said Morgan's hiring was well received by players. "The player's really like coach Morgan -- he was their first choice and they are very excited to play for him." Cyclone player Jake Sullivan said the players are happy that Morgan was hired to be their new coach. "We're all very excited," said Sullivan, who will be a senior next year. "We're all on the same page, we're together 110 percent and we're behind this decision. This is the guy we really wanted." Sullivan said the players trust Morgan and believe he was the best candidate to move the team forward. "He has the kind of system that excites players, and to get this program where it needs to be again," Sullivan said. "He's the right guy." Point guard Tim Barnes, who supported Eustachy and initially said he might not return if Eustachy left, said he is committed to playing for Morgan. "I'm going to go out and play the same as I did for Larry -- 110 percent," Barnes said. "I'm pretty sure everyone is going to come back. Everybody loves coach Morgan and everybody's glad to see him as head coach now and move on. Now we can just get back to playing as a team." |

Ravens LB Bart Scott (Post-Gazette)
During the process of identifying the Buffalo Bills' biggest positional needs, the Buffalo Rumblings community nearly unanimously listed a pass-rushing defensive end as the one spot where the Bills most desperately needed an upgrade. Tight end, center and outside linebacker closely followed. We have already begun the process of profiling potential Bills free agents; for reference now and in the future, all of these profiles will be available at this link.
With the NFL's free agent signing period set to begin less than one month from today (midnight on February 27), we here at Rumblings are now starting the process of profiling several top-notch free agents that the community has identified as potentially worthy of donning the red, white and blue in 2009. Even after signing LB Kawika Mitchell as an unrestricted free agent last off-season, the Bills still have a need for an athletic playmaker at outside linebacker (especially since Angelo Crowell's return is unlikely). One of the more interesting and hard-to-define names amongst this year's free agent crop is Ravens linebacker Bart Scott. Though he plays second fiddle to some of the league's greatest defensive players in Baltimore, Scott has quietly enjoyed a very productive seven-year career after making the cut as an undrafted free agent in 2002. At 29, however, major questions surround Scott, particularly regarding his ability to be a good player outside of Baltimore.
Bart Scott
Age 29 at start of 2009 season
6'2", 240 pounds
7-year NFL veteran out of Southern Illinois
With LB Angelo Crowell an unrestricted free agent and likely on his way out of Buffalo (despite his recent public comments), the Bills will once again be searching for an outside linebacker to play in front of the often-overmatched Keith Ellison. With several viable options available at outside linebacker this year, Baltimore's Scott could be one of the first to switch teams. Scott is an inside linebacker in Baltimore's general 3-4 defensive front, and many believe that his stats are inflated as Ravens opponents key on his interior teammate, the great Ray Lewis. Still, Scott has played on very good defensive teams and has had some impressive statistical seasons, and though he's pushing the age of 30, he's probably got some years left in the tank.
I'm no authority on the Ravens, but Rexx of Baltimore Beatdown most certainly is. SB Nation's Ravens blogger has some nice things to say about Scott and his time spent in Baltimore, but offers some words of caution as well...
On Scott's future in Baltimore
"Of all the high profile free agents that the Ravens stand to lose, this one looks to be the favorite to part ways with the team that signed him as an undrafted free agent seven years ago out of Southern Illinois. However, if he is willing to accept less with the Ravens they would gladly keep him. At the same time, this team has been the NFL equivalent of Penn State's "Linebacker U" and we have a few great prospects waiting for a chance to take over in the wings."
On whether Scott is a "product of the system"
"Scott to me is a product of the Ravens great system and on another team, may turn out to be relatively invisible, save for his mouth. Most teams focused on keeping Ray Lewis from making tackles, along with Terrell Suggs, and that left Scott free to do his damage. His stats have been off for the past few years since his awesome 2006 season."
Does Scott "Fit the Bill"?
I'm going to come right out and say it: I don't want to see Scott in a Bills uniform. For one, he's less equipped than some of the other linebackers we've covered (or are going to cover) in playing the strong-side in our 4-3 scheme; his coverage skills aren't outstanding and he doesn't have the bulk that you'd like to see in that type of prospect. At age 29, he's not exactly a wise long-term investment, either, particularly considering he'd be asked to do far more outside of Baltimore, not to mention make a position switch. The one positive he would add to Buffalo's defense would be some attitude, but balancing that with his motor mouth and his penchant to take dumb penalties, I'll pass on this guy in every way possibly imaginable. There are just smarter ways to get better defensively, and the fact that this guy played for the Ravens does nothing to convince me that he'd be good in any other NFL city.
Any thoughts on Scott that you'd like to add? Take a gander at his stat line below, vote in the poll, and let's talk some about Bart Scott this afternoon. Many thanks to Rexx for the valuable insight!

Deadline kills half of Oregon measures |
| Print | |
Must Reads |
Tuesday, February 07, 2012 |
Many bills died by the first major Oregon Legislature deadline this Monday. Monday was the deadline for committees to post notices of public hearings on bills and resolutions. As of Monday morning, notices had been posted for 127 of the 279 measures introduced for the 2012 session. That number excludes several bills already cleared by committees for votes of the House and Senate or passed by one or both chambers. It also excludes bills pending in the tax, budget and rules committees, which are not subject to the deadlines. So slightly more than half the measures survived the first cut.

The PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative (MVI) announced today that it has entered into a collaboration with Dutch biopharmaceutical company Crucell N.V. and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). This collaboration is aimed at developing a second-generation vaccine against malaria—a deadly disease that kills close to 800,000 people annually, most of them young children under age five in Africa. MVI drives the development of malaria vaccines by joining its scientific, managerial, and field expertise with companies, universities, and governments to test potential malaria vaccines and invest in those with the most promise.
The new project will bring together two promising vaccine approaches in an effort to develop a malaria vaccine that may have the potential to improve on the efficacy of GSK's first generation RTS,S vaccine candidate. In this collaborative effort, a single dose of Crucell's weakened recombinant adenovirus Ad35.CS.01malaria vaccine approach will be administered, followed by two doses of GSK's RTS,S malaria vaccine candidate in a Phase 1/2a clinical trial that is expected to begin later this year. This would be the first test in humans of this "heterologous prime-boost" approach against malaria.
"We are at an important moment in malaria vaccine development," said Dr. Christian Loucq, director of MVI. "For the first time, we have a malaria vaccine in late phase development in the form of the RTS,S vaccine candidate. This new collaboration, though in the early stages, gives us the opportunity to test an approach with the potential to substantially increase efficacy and move us closer to the internationally agreed upon goal of an 80 percent effective second-generation vaccine by 2025."
The RTS,S vaccine candidate is currently in the midst of a large-scale Phase 3 clinical efficacy trial. If all goes well in Phase 3 testing, the World Health Organization (WHO) has indicated that a policy recommendation for RTS,S is possible as early as 2015, paving the way for countries to make a decision about implementation through their national immunization programs. The RTS,S trial, which is the outcome of a decade-long collaboration between MVI and GSK, involves 11 sites in seven African countries.
Crucell and MVI first began working together in 2007 to develop adenovirus-based vaccines targeting malaria and are currently collaborating on another heterologous prime-boost approach. Crucell's Ad35.CS.01 was recently tested in a Phase 1 clinical study in the United States.

0.5 starson by fredhagPros: Good tablet adhesion (I'm sure it was licensed) yet easy removal without noticeable residue
Cons: Weak plastic parts that breaks easily
Summary: I would not buy this again without redesign and checking out at brick-n-mortar store. Lack of any warranty/guarantee suggests manufacturer is expecting one-time purchase clientele.
