Vigorous AchieverEdit
Fen Jin grew up on the street of Mongkok into a triad family. He started collecting money from small businesses for the triads when he was 12. He grew into kidnapping and torturing, mostly the sons and daughters of wealthy Chinese families. All for extortion. His favourite "sport" was fighting other triads and his vicious street fighting abilities became well known.
One evening on his way home from checking on a kidnap victim, an assassin's silenced bullet ended Fen Jin's life and his P'o was propelled into the spirit world. It was too strong for Yomi's hell and crashed through the Wall and went rampaging through the streets of Mongkok.
Keui-jin were sent out to put down the monster raging in the streets and they cornered Fen Jin and were about to strike when suddenly a hand reached out and snagged Fen Jin and pulled him to safety. Gan Shuo had rescued the mindless Fen Jin and calmed the slavering brute's P'o. Fen Jin was given an explanation about what had happened to him and spoken to about the Righteous Devils' evil and Fen Jin's every desire would be fulfilled if he served Gan Shuo and did exactly what he did for the triads – extort from and eliminate enemies and rivals.
Fen Jin has no concept of what it is to be Keui-jin as his entire knowledge comes from his mentor and boss. He lives to indulge himself in the same activities he excelled in life.
Fen Jin looks and acts like a street tough, wearing a leather jacket, tight jeans and dark glasses. He wears his hair in a short buzzcut and smokes constantly (a habit he believes adds to his "tough-guy" image.) He spends much of his time in Demon Shintai form.

|This is a discussion on Two Questions - Set Mining & Fold Equity within the online poker forums, in the Cash Games section; With small pocket pairs, normally I've been open raising in early and middle positions. Would I be better off just calling initially, with the option
Two Questions - Set Mining & Fold Equity
With small pocket pairs, normally I've been open raising in early and middle positions. Would I be better off just calling initially, with the option of calling subsequent raises? Specifically, reasons are to mask my hand and maybe more calls to put those extra few bbs into the pot.
When it comes to Micro stakes cash games, quite often you run into players with a very high VPIP. My read is that with these players you basically have very little fold equity with these. It's a situation where I never feel I'm getting the proper value out of them when I do win. Any thoughts, comments or suggested reads? I've also learned to never try to bluff them.
It sounds like you have 2 dissimilar ends in mind.
1: you want to get some extra bbs in the pot, so you might fold people out if you bet.
2: you don't want to bet because you don't have any fold equity.
Both of these things can't be true. If people won't fold you get more bb's in by betting than by calling. If people fold too much, then you have fold equity so betting should net you some $$ when people fold.
In either situation, betting is probably the best course of action.
It should work like this. If you get several callers then you should only lead on the flop when you hit your set or something like that. You have already gotten some good money and you may even get a call from a fish.
If you only get 1 caller then you can cbet most flops because the other guy should miss 70% of the time and you likely have the best hand.
Don't cbet when you missed into several people - someone probably hit.
If you stick to that, you should be fine.
Depends on your opponents. If you're playing against a bunch of solid regs, I'd rather fold PP's in early/MP than limp. You'll never get value from them unless it's some sort of cooler situation because your range will be severely capped.
On the other hand, if you're playing with a table full of casual rec fish, limping is perfectly fine and perhaps even preferred.
I think betting in both situations is still fine. You just treat your post flop differently. If you are playing at a very loose (like 1/2 live full ring kind of loose) game then I guess you could limp... but I think you actually have more fold equity than you think you do.
Either way, its more a post flop, rather than pre-flop adjustment.
re: Poker & Two Questions - Set Mining & Fold Equity
Uber, no issues with the confusion, I caused that by putting to (intended) unrelated questions in the same post.
Still not sure about the fold equity part though. Example:
I have QQ, raise and have 1 caller going to the flop. If I am against a nitty or tight player, I am comfortable C-Betting with an A or K on the flop. I know if he hit, I'll know it. However, if the villain has a VP of 30 or many times higher, MUCH higher, I'm lost 'cause I know so many times he's calling with air, a lower pair or a draw. And we all know every card he sees I have a better chance of losing.
Basically its this, on the flop you are either beating him and he has few outs against you, or he is beating you and you have few outs against him.
In the above example, the board is A high and you have QQ. If he has an A you are way behind. If he doesn't, you are likely way ahead.
In these kind of situations you want to get to showdown relatively cheaply. So you are going to check most of the time, and call 1 or 2 bets.
You don't want to just fold when you may be ahead, but if you bet and get raised you kind of have to fold. But you can call a single bet on the flop. Same thing on the turn.
If someone is really loose postflop, and they are likely to call MUCH wider than just TP, then you can probably bet for some thin value. I think checking is still fine though.
WA/WB usually comes up most of the time when the board is pretty dry, so like A59 rainbow would be a decent example. Thats not super dry, but dry enough that you can apply the concept. They should have few outs against you if you're ahead, and if they are ahead you have only 2 outs (at best).
This just happened, example of what I'm referring to. Villain here is 18/11 with ~ 400 hands.
If he calls my flop bet, I go into a shell knowing 95% of the time I'm beaten. If it's a fish, I have no idea.

re: Poker & Two Questions - Set Mining & Fold Equity
Also, SB played his hand horribly bet flop and turn bigger, especially against a guy that calls like this. I would be more in favor of betting 2/3rds+ pot on flop and turn and betting small/checking river if he calls to this point.
There isn't really anything "to do" there. Bet bigger, and roll your eyes and fold when he raises. It sucks. But these players show up all the time at the micros. They make bad calls all day long and then people pay off their reverse implied odds by making the call when they finally connect and shove.
You have to be able to make folds here. Yeah, he could be bluffing - but he won't be. He WILL call down with a pair of 2's though.
If you can make the smart folds, then he will be getting crushed, because he will not get paid off on his long shot hands. He will still get crushed even when does get paid off, but it will take longer.
Have faith, play tight, fold smart, bet for value.
Yes, he will call down with a pair of 2s, but in the case above, he hit another pair on the River. How do you bet for value there?
The 95% is just a guesstimate from my own experience with players .............. let's say VPIP 15% and below with a high PFR. For the most part, if they call me, they have something worth calling with. Maybe I'm wrong, I dunno. I'm not saying it's a smart or profitable way to play, just saying it's what I see very often.
sorry, xb = checkback. I'm lazy lol.
Basically we don't fold out better(+ have little equity vs a calling range ) and everything that folds we probably are way ahead of anyway as someone mentioned earlier in this thread the way ahead/ way behind concept.
QQ/JJ is unlikely when he limp/calls from the sb.
Sometimes we can call a street or two depending on opponent if they bet vs our "weakness" or whatever( which will often be villain dependant) but checking is by far our best option on that flop.
You bet for value on the river then you fold when he shoves. THAT is what
I mean by a smart fold. Either something changed or he is spewing. Its pretty polarizing in what he could have. However, with weak players it is weighed more heavily towards a value shove when the idiot hits.
Value bet, and fold to a raise.
xb means Check (x) Back (b). Like you might say x/r for check raise.
I don't think you need to xb that that river. I think you b/f.
re: Poker & Two Questions - Set Mining & Fold Equity
Listen to this guy. At the micros, bet/fold is your best friend with a strong one pair type on the river. It completely counters a fish tendency to call down anything and only ever reraise something that beats overpair because lol "AA?" Seriously look at their fishy chats. They love to either pin you on AA/KK or AK and play against you as such (ie. trying to draw to 2 pair or better because they have such good implied odds)
Don't give them that chance to get paid for their reverse odds.
Don't call their bluffs either with a good read, cause it's not going to happen often enough to be profitable. If they ever figure you think like that you might see them betting too often on the river (over adjust) , at that point maybe.
Hhmmmm something anecdotal... If you're IP and they suddenly lead bet 50-90 pct pot into you, it's more likely a bluff than if you were check raised by them. Most Fish often get scared of bluffing big so they are prolly less likely to attempt bluff check raising. This don't apply to Afro fish though. Disclaimer: they still won't be bluffing enough majority of the time, but it's a good start to learning to bluff catch these guys.
Showing down your TT here with a fairly large pot may even induce some bad adjustments as well. Watch them overvalue TPWK later.
Most of the time you have to give respect to fishes' raises. That guy played AA horribly, if he gets his bet sizing correct and villain doesn't hit a lucky 2 pair, he gets 3 streets of huge value from J4 offsuit... who is happier in the long run?
Generally don't cbet if you missed, fire out once if you know the fish folds if they completely whiffed the flop, as they'll miss 70% of the time. When you do hit, TPGK is going to be beating them on the flop, take them to value town and fold to any raises. Don't slow up if they snap call you down, or overcards come either, please fold to their raises, they won't be bluffing trust me.
Lots of great posts here folks, and thank you. To respond to just a few of them:
As for they won't be bluffing, I have numerous instances that make me tend to disagree, one that just happened this afternoon is posted below.
Now, he min-raised pre which tells me he might have a low pocket pair, Ax, maybe suited connectors or 2 broadway cards. (Note I have 0 info on this player.) I took a stab at a C-Bet with 1 overcard and a possible FD on the board, he called. OK, maybe he has Qx, maybe suited diamonds, maybe a 7 or a 2. Turn gives me my set, but it's a diamond and shoves. He COULD have a flush, he might have made 2 pair. I called figuring my odds are OK (and maybe I'm right out to lunch there).
I'm willingly open to criticism here, but my thoughts were he has (I think) something like an 8% chance of having a flush there, and my set is made. There are 14 cards that would give me a full house or better on the River if he did make his flush, so I think my odds are worth the risk of calling him. Thoughts, comments or suggestions?

I guess this thread has gotten a little off track, but it's a great discussion all the same.
Besides, it's my thread and I'll do what I want!!!!
Time for another Espresso!
I've been able to put reads on my opponents and make them fold their pocket pair... It gets tricky though and can burn a lot of money depending on the opponent.
I guess it's all about Hollywood and acting the part and believing you have something you don't.

I think the answers reveal in the above pretty well.
The guy raises pre-flop with Aces against a guy who will call with any two cards. GREAT.
The board lands fairly dry. Aces bets half pot... well I'm not sure I like that. If I thought my opponent might by calling conservatively I wouldn't mind it. A conservative player with over cards might peel thinking our guy is c-betting with AK/AQ/AJ/99, something there's still value against. BUT against this kind of player Aces is almost ALWAY ahead. The only hands ahead are hole cards are T2, T7, 22, and maybe 77. But let's be real - even aggro fish are folding 72, and they're very likely 3-betting TT, and there's about 50/50 they're 3-betting 77.
So with Aces, I would know I'm very very likely ahead. AND I know if this guy has any ten he's going to call a big bet. If he has over cards or a pocket pair, he will likely call a big raise. If he has a 7, if he 89, even if he has a 2, he might call off a big raise (89 assuredly would, these guys LOVE chasing straights and flushes). So I'm betting pot sized AT LEAST.
Now, a Jack hits on the turn. That puts a couple other scary prospects in play - J10 got there, 89 got there, J7, J2, T7, 22, T2. So there's seven reasonable hands that are beating us. Now what else would call a big bet here? Any KQ, KJ, QJ, J9, K10, Q10, A10, and any pair with a diamond draw. About ten-twelve pockets (I'm not multiplying the combinations since it about evens out). So by betting big on the flop and betting big on the turn, we're say about 66/33 favorite against his range, and we have outs against all of his range that's ahead except 89.
Now, it's a somewhat tricky spot if the guy is really a maniac. Because unless we hit an ace or the board pairs we're looking to most likely check-call the river following this line. But there is that chance that this player will bet monstrously on the river following a check. And it's fair to say that it's not usually a bluff here because the pair-with-diamond draw combo will most likely check back or bet half-pot to pot size for value. He'd have to have our guy on a better hand to turn his hand into a bluff, and he's just not that smart. The only other bluffs are missed diamond draws with no pair, and how many of those really got this far? Not many.
So the moral of that long long post is that the optimal line is generally betting LARGE for value. If you break down his range, we ARE in fact ahead until the river. 2/3 times we have the best hand on the turn, and of those 2 times our villain will only catch their river 10% of the time. So with no real read at all we're above a 50% favorite to win the hand. That's WITH the guy calling big bets.
If we can narrow the range down a bit more we can easily tip those odds even MORE favorably. AND think of the implied value if he had J10 and another 2 showed up on the river!
While these players can be tough because they just call the shit out of you and will get lucky, they're actually just little piggie banks waiting to give you their money. Don't be scared, be excited!!
Here's another way to look at it.
If you are playing straight ahead poker, you should be pulling in something to the tune of 5bb/100hands, give or take. That means for every hundreds hands you are banking 50 cents on 0.05/0.10. That's maybe an hour or so of playing... for 50 cents. It's gonna take a long time to bankroll yourself to 0.10/0.25 this way.
But, then there's edge. Edge is when you find players that you can accelerate your win rate against.
Calling stations, like the player mentioned here, is a perfect player to gain that edge on! Best way to gain an edge on a player that calls everything - put as many chips in the pot as you can get them to call when you are ahead!
The best best BEST reason to bluff in a cash game is so that people will call off your big bets when you actually have a real hand. Call stations fast lane you to doing just that! They give you a golden ticket to value the shit out of your hands without ever having to risk a bluff.

Having undesirable fat in numerous areas of your body can have a considerable effect on your health and self-esteem. While conventional weight loss through exercise and diet is a fantastic method to lose weight overall, even the best workouts cannot target issue areas like the tummy, inner thighs, arms, and butts. Liposuction is a time evaluated treatment that is utilized to remove excess fat from particular areas of the body, permitting an individual to form and contour their body to their preference. Is liposuction right for you? Learn now.
Pros of LiposuctionThere are lots of advantages to this cosmetic treatment, including:
• Immediately visible modifications. Unlike standard weight-loss, liposuction creates modifications that are immediately noticeable in the body. Some distinction is visible right away, and the wanted results are generally achieved in simply a few days.
• Proven and safe. This cosmetic procedure has been performed by knowledgeable specialists all over the world for many years and the method has been improved over and once again to be safe and reliable.
• Healing time is usually quick. The downtime needed after having this kind of procedure is normally much less than exactly what is required for other types of cosmetic treatments, including abdominoplasty, breast reduction, and more. Individuals who have had the treatment can often return to work a lot more rapidly than they expected and can return to living a healthy, active way of life.
• Weight reduction can be long-term. With the best maintenance strategies, the fat that was removed during the liposuction procedure will not return.
• Complete control over your physique. With liposuction, an individual can have complete control over how they want to look, beyond what traditional diet plan and exercise can supply. Providing people this power over their bodies enhances self-confidence and help people feel their best.
While there many advantages to liposuction, there are obviously a few cautions that need to be taken into account before making the final decision to progress with the treatment.
Cons of Liposuction
Before having liposuction done, it is necessary to examine the possible downsides of the treatment and figure out if the advantages surpass the threats in your certain case. Your specialist can help you learn more about the dangers related to the procedure and can help you choose if progressing is the ideal thing for you.
• Complications with basic anesthesia. Since liposuction is carried out under general anesthesia, the treatment carries the same risks as other type of surgery where general anesthesia is utilized. Underlying medical conditions may increase these threats.
• Adverse reactions. Bruising, bleeding, and discomfort are all to be anticipated, however, in uncommon cases can trigger more significant problems.
• The potential to get the weight back. After having actually liposuction done, it is critical to maintain a healthy diet plan and exercise appropriately as advised by your doctor. Failure to do so could cause acquiring back the weight that was lost or perhaps much more.
There are risks associated with liposuction, for many people, the advantages far surpass them. Inform yourself about the treatment by having thorough discussions with your surgeon and consider how liposuction has the prospective to affect you as an unique person. Just you and your cosmetic surgeon can figure out if liposuction will provide you with the outcomes you are searching for within your expectations.

Tissot are nice time pieces, analogous to Tag. I feel that people who purchase Tag are really not "watch people" more like "label people" . I am not a fan of Tag. Oris is a more reputable watchmaker as they are their own company not a subsidiary of swatch. I do like the old Heur watches though.

Could not help but breathe new life into this thread...firstly because it's amused me immensely but also since for the first time in my life I noticed some Tissot watches which looked good and therefore worth investigating hence clicking on this site. I have learnt that Tissot is made by Swatch apparently and then learnt from a shop assistant that Tudor is supposedly made by Rolex. The question I guess becomes brand over substance over value...ie if something holds it value it adds a third dimension something not done by cheaper watches regardless of their merits. I started looking at watches to replace a £200 CK watch which ticked every box until it stopped working and was going to be potentially more expensive to fix than the cost of a new watch hence I started looking about. GQ mag has an article at present about the best beach watch and it's these sort of article which raise brand profile in the midrange I guess. In the end like a car I fear the more you spend the more you need to care about it the less you can simply get on with your life...as they say even a broken watch is right twice a day....but hey I digress..anyone know if the dude bought a Tissot ??
As a watch person (there aren't many of us) I can say with certainty that, with everything else there is more to a class timepiece than meets the eye (percussion sting*). Tissot do make some nice looking pieces but also a lot of lower end `things`. The fact that you bought a CK watch with a battery highlights your need for a bit of reading (no offence intended my friend). I find it bizarre that people will spend a fortune on classy nice clothing yet wear a tacky watch that belongs on the wrist of a spotty youth.
In spite of saying that, there isn't the immediate need to rush out and buy a Vacheron Constantin OS just to play the part. Quality Swiss watches can be had for a few hundred that have class, sophistication and a bit of horology as well.

Primary Examiner-Joseph W. Hartary Attorney, Agent, or FirmSpencer & Kaye ABSTRACT In a device for delivering drops of fluid to a surface, such as a printing head for delivering drops of ink, which device includes an ink ejector head provided with at least one chamber having an outlet channel and an inlet channel, a connector member arranged to be connected to a line for receiving ink fluid and for supplying such fluid to the inlet channel, and a member for applying pressure pulses to the fluid in the chamber, the operating reliability of the device is improved by the provision of a valve disposed in the ejector head in the fluid flow path between the connector member and the inlet channel for reducing pressure surges experienced by the fluid in both the forward and reverse fluid flow directions and for closing the fluid flow path between the connector member and the inlet channel when a pressure drop occurs in the line,
7 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures 1 INK EJECTION PRINTING DEVICES BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present-invention relates to apparatus for applying drops of fluid to a surface, and particularly a printer having an ink ejection head. Such printers include at least one chamber with an outlet channel and an inlet channel for delivery of writing fluid from a reservoir through a tubular line, and a device for producing temporary pressure increases in the writing fluid in the chamber.
German Offenlegungsschriften [Laid Open Applications] Nos. 2,132,082 and 2,164,614 disclose ink ejection printers whose operation is based on the flow conditions produced during ejection and sucking in of the writing fluid in cooperation with the inertia and surface tensions in the outlet channel, i.e., arrangements which operate like valve-less pumps. In order to prevent air from entering the system through the outlet channel during the suction process, while assuring that the writing fluid will nevertheless flow from the ink reservoir, the dimensions of the fluid filled channels and thus the surface tensions at the outlet channel and the capillary forces of the writing fluid in the system-are selected to be correspondingly large. In the case of mass produced printers in which the ejection heads are not moved, such a measure prevents the entrance of air into the system. i
In printers with an ink ejection head which is moved in the direction of the printed line, acceleration surges will develop in the writing fluid disposed in the ejection head and in the tubular line, which surges cause a change in the pressure and force conditions in the cavities, so that the printing process is interrupted by the entrance of air. The entering air must be removed by evacuation in a vacuum system and the ink ejector head must be refilled with writing fluid. When the ink reservoir is exchanged and when the tubular lines are removed from the connecting studat the ink ejection head, a subatmospheric pressure is produced in the ink filled cavities which effects a return flow of the ink from the ejection head and favors the entrance of air.
US. Pat. No. 2,556,550 discloses an ejection device with valves which are manually closed after each ejection process and which must be reopened in order to refill the device. When, for example, there is a sudden power failure, the ejection head is connected with the ink reservoir via the tubular line so that pressure surges in the writing fluid due to improper handling of the printer will lead to excess ink discharges or to a return flow of the ink. Often such an apparatus, when in the switched-off state, will be moved to another location or will be handled during maintenance. In such cases a flow of writing fluid through the system formed by the cavities in the ink ejection head, the tubular line and the ink reservoir cannot be avoided.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to render ineffective any oscillations which may occur to the writing A further object of the invention is to automatically separate the writing fluidwhich has entered into the ink ejection head from the writing fluid which comes from the ink reservoir through the tubular line when the inactive state has begun.
The invention substantially increases the operational dependability of such devices. Removal of the tubular line and replacement of the ink reservoir is possible for every position of the ejection head and can be performed by less skilled personnel.
The flow of writing fluid during operation of the ink ejector head continues without interruption as the valve experiences a pressure reducing action. The valve can be formed in an advantageous manner by means inserted opposite oneanother in the dividing planes of the ink ejector head, so that fabrication and installation can be effected easily and by unskilled labor. Inexpensive cutting tools and standardized parts can be used to divide the pressure chambers. The arrangement does not require any additional space and is weight-saving.
Further advantages of the present invention result from the fact that the flow of writing liquid is interrupted in the inactive state and that inflow of air due to the return flow of the writing fluid, which would require complicated refilling preceded by removal of the air inthe chambers of a vacuum system and a discharge of ink due to excess writing fluid, is prevented.
The apparatus for operating the valve is made of simple components which can be carried only with the ink ejector head or may be stationary in the printer. When the inactive state occurs, no additional energy source is required to maintain the closed state of the valve.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional elevational view of an ink ejector head according to the invention which is connected to an ink reservoir via a tubular line.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view to a much larger scale of the valve in the area of the abutment surfaces, to illustrate the pressure conditions therein.
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view to a much larger scale of a further exemplary embodiment of the valve.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an arrangement for controlling the valve.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows an ink ejector head 1 which is in flow communication with an ink reservoir 3 via a flexible tubular line 2. The cavities of this system are filled with a writing liquid. Before the cavities are filled with the writing liquid, the air present in the cavities of the system is removed in a vacuum apparatus. In addition, any gas present in the ink is removed because encapsulated air would lead to malfunction of the ink ejector head if the air were carried along by the writing fluid into the cavities or if air were sucked into the ink ejector head through the outlet channel 9 provided for discharging drops to effect printing.
The ink ejector head 1 is provided with a chamber which is divided into two parts, i.e., an inner chamber 4 and an outer chamber 5, connected together via a connecting channel 6. The inner chamber 4 is bounded on one side by a unit for producing short-term pressure increases, or pressure pulses, in the writing fluid filling the cavities. This unit includes a metal plate 7 and a 3 piezo-electric crystal 8 which can be excited by a voltage applied via terminals 13. The outer chamber 5 includes the outlet channel 9 and an inlet channel 10. Each pressure pulse resulting from excitation of crystal 8 causes a drop of ink to be projected from channel 9 onto printing surface 22 guided around roller, or drum,
The arrangement according to the present invention for eliminating oscillations in the writing fluid is disposed between the inlet channel 10 and the connector member 11 for'the tubular line 2. This arrangement will hereinafter be called the valve and is generally designated as 12. Valve 12, two embodiments of which are shown in detail in FIGS. 2'and 3, includes an antechamber which is divided into two pressure chambers 14 and 15 by a diaphragm 16. The diaphragm 16 is provided with a bore 17 in its center region and may additionally be provided with a ferromagnetic plate 40, as shown in FIG. 1. A plurality of such bores may be present.
Each one of the pressure chambers 14 and 15 is provided with a respective one of abutment surfaces 18 and 19 which are disposed opposite one another in a pair in line with bore 17. The abutment surfaces 18 and l9 each have a concave curvature. A pliable sealing ring 20 is placed around bore 17 in diaphragm 16, as shown for the embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 3. The space between wall 21, defining a sealing surface, and the sealing ring 20 is less than the space between dia- P gm 16 find....aht t nent.surfa h sl aph a l6 and sealingring 20 is consisting of one part and consist of plastic material.
The pressure chamber 14 is connected to provide flow between it and connector member 1 l for the tubular line via a labyrinth-type channel 24. The presence of capillary channel Hand of a preferably concave abutment surface 27 is of importance. Pressure chamber 15 is in flow connection with chambers 4 and 5 (FIG. 1) via a channel having a capillaryv effect,'and an inlet channel 10.
The valve 12 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 can operate in various ways. The acceleration and deceleration of theink ejector head 1 during its movement in the direction of the line being printed produces, due to the inertia of the writing fluid in the system as well as because of deformations in the flexible tubular line 2, acceleration surges in the writing fluid so that the writing fluid is discharged irregularly and is interrupted when air enters through outlet channel 9. The entrance of air is possible, for example, if drops in pressure in the system are superimposed on the suction occurring during the return movement of thepiezoelectric crystal 8 (FIG. 1)
to its rest position.
Acceleration surges coming from tubular line2 are partially absorbed in the labyrinth-type channel 24, and acceleration surges coming from ink ejector head 1 are partially absorbed in the capillary channel 25. The rest of the acceleration or pressure surge acts on diaphragm.
16, as shown in FIG. 2, so that the diaphragm tends to bend through slightly in the direction of the acceleration surge. If an acceleration surge, in the direction of arrow 28 in FIG. 2, coming from tubular line 2 now acts on valve 12, its direction is changed when the surge abuts on abutment surface 27. The concave abutment surface 27 reflects the acceleration surge in such a manner that counterforces will converge substantially in its focal point.
Residual acceleration surges reaching pressure chamber 14 tend to move diaphragm 16 into the pressure chamber 15. This produces an equal pressure in pressure chamber 15 which is partially absorbed in cup illary channel 25. Bore 17 of diaphragm l6 permits equalization so that writing fluid flowing from pressure chamber 15 into pressure chamber 14, in the direction of arrows 29, impinges on the abutment surface 18 and is deflected therefrom so that counterforces, in the directions of arrows 30, are produced which converge in the focal point of abutment surface 18. Acceleration or pressure surges coming from the ink ejector head system in valve 12 through capillary channel 25 are also equalized when diaphragm 16 tries to deflect into pressure chamber 14.
Upon disconnection of the flexible tubular line 2 from ink reservoir 3 and from tubular line connection 11 there will inevitably occur an effective enlargement of the cavities filled with writing fluid. This produces a sub-atmospheric pressure in valve 12, resulting from flow of fluid in the direction of arrow 31 in FIG. 3. The return flow of the writing fluid from ink ejector head 1 into tubular line 2 is prevented by the automatic contact of sealing ring 20 with sealing surface 21 in the embodiment of FIG. 3, or contact of diaphragm 16 with sealing surface 21 in the embodiment of FIG. 2.
FIGS. 1 and 4 also show the possibility of closing the valve when the printer is switched off (inactive state).
The ink ejector head 1 in FIG. 4 is disposed in an ejection position. As shown in FIG. 1, a permanent magnet 33 is fastened to a rocker arm 34 which in the operating state of the printer is held in its pivoted-out position by the electromagnet 35 via an armature 36, so that the printing process can take place along the entire printing line without any influence on the ink flow. When the printer is switched off, or when there is no current, armature 36 of the electromagnet 35 drops so that rocker arm 34 is pivoted about fulcrum 38 by an energy store 37 and permanent magnet 33 is brought into contact with the outer wall 39 of the ink ejector head 1 once it has been moved to its lefthand position, represented by the dashed-line ink ejector head 1'. When magnet 33 is in this position, it attracts plate to close the passage between diaphragm l6 and wall 21.
It is also conceivable, however, to carry the permanent magnet 33 along with the ink ejector head 1, thus moving along electromagnet 35 as well as fulcrum 38 of rocker arm 34 and power store 37. Upon occurrence of a sudden power failure, the permanent magnet 33 would abut at the outer wall 39 of the ink ejector head for any printing position of the ink ejector head 1, so that the valve 12 shown in FIG. 1 would close.
The valve arrangements shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 can be used, in combination with this device if they are provided with a ferromagnetic plate 40. In the inactive state the ferromagnetic plate 40 is pulled against the sealing surface 21 of the outer wall 39 under the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 33 which is placed against the outside of the outer wall 39 so that the writing fluid disposed in the cavities of the ink ejector head 1 is separated from the writing fluid in tubular line 2. It is also conceivable to hydraulically or pneumatically control the valve by way of varying pressure relationships.
It willbe understood that the above description of the present invention is susceptible to various modifications, changes and adaptations, and the same are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalents of the appended claims.

El Pollo Loco: "Chicken & Salsa" Los Angeles Restaurant Tip by heryanta
Los Angeles Restaurants: 917 reviews and 1,036 photos
Continuing my tips on Californian fast food joints ... Americans may pass along as this tip is probably more for our friends from abroad :)
If you read my other tips you will know that I love chicken :) Therefore I like El Pollo Loco.
It is a chain of fast food restaurants offering flame grilled rotisserie chicken in Mexican style meal. You can have it with tortilla, or in a burrito, or taco's. I believe the grilled chicken probably is the best choice you can go with.
They also have a salsa bar that I like a lot. Next to the regular and spicy salsa you can have pico de gallo, avocado based sauce and jalapeno's.
Selection of sides include: rice, black beans, pinto beans, coleslaw and Mac 'n cheese.

Frigidaire Stainless Steel 1000 Watts Microwave Oven
Reviewed by 1 customer
Comments about Frigidaire Stainless Steel 1000 Watts Microwave Oven:
My hubby surprised me w/ my FGBM185KF Microwave Oven - matched my new range. Overall I am pleased. The Gallery Series appliances LOOK very sharp. The microwave has several "conviencence" buttons. One thing I love is the ability to press any number 1-6 and have it 'quick start'. This microwave seems to have plenty of power - heats food quickly. One thing I don't like is how warm the inside of the microwave gets while the exhaust fan is on and we're cooking on the range below. The handle also tends to get very warm if the heat from the range gets to it.

Land of fire and ice is nice
23 April 2010
Be it through opportunistic marketing strategy or unfortunate timing, a somewhat surprising item of mail dropped through my letterbox in recent days.
"Visit incredible Iceland", invited the travel leaflet, adding trips to the country are "better value than ever before".
With astounding timing, the leaflet states that among the holiday options available is the opportunity of a lifetime to see a live volcanic eruption.
Describing Iceland as a land of superlatives, whose natural wonders include lava fields and volcanic and geothermal curiosities, the missive certainly turned my thoughts towards a summer holiday in the "land of fire and ice".
"What on earth are you waiting for?", screams the leaflet in huge print - well, possibly a flight actually, given the air travel chaos caused by the volcanic clouds spewed out by Eyjafjallajökull…

Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910) spent 50 years of his life at Yasnaya Polyana, where he was born, wrote his most significant works, undertook social experiments, and was buried. Here he freed his serfs and taught peasant children at a school that he opened, attempting to transfer his ideal of a perfect world of universal equality to reality. Disappointed with his way of life and nobleman status, he decided at the age of 82 to depart from home forever, venturing out shortly before his death in October 1910.
A region with a cultural history like nowhere else in the country has its own ways of celebrating the holidays.More

Great base for harbour & the gower
We really enjoyed being near to everything the hotel was great for a couple of days.
Friendly staff at the counter but the cleaner was rude
Ok where to start..
We booked two rooms.. One room was fine but the other had clearly been cleaned but before we got into the room someone else had used the beds and bathroom.. There were hairs all over the beds, cushions had been moved, a charger had been left in the room, the bins had not been emptied as there was an empty bottle of milk/ shaving foam and strip of tablets in the bin, the toilet was filthy and glasses had been used in the bathroom.. (I have photographic proof of this!!). We complained to the main desk and fair play they sent a cleaner (after 20min) to clean the room again- although she complained the whole time that she only had 20 min to clean ever room and that it wasn't her fault that someone had used the room in the mean time.. When a senior member of staff appeared and we mentioned that the cleaner was stressing and complaining she also helped out to cleaned the room along with myself and my mother by stripping the bed and putting clean sheets on the bed.. (Not really what you expect for £70 a night)
We received a free bottle of rose as an apology that we greatly received and they were apologetic.. But it did taenish our opinion of the place..
Although as no one had been checked into the room logically only a worker could have done the mess in the first place....
Besides this... The food was great!. Good value for money!. And the breakfast was lovely!!. Would highly recommend for a conference as I have never had an issue with the conference suites in the 8 course days that i have been on here..!.
Plus if the room was clean when we arrived it would have been great. (Which is a shame!!)
Swimming pool and sauna was amazing (nice to chill!. And in full working order)
So all good would highly recommend but they need to investigate their own staff to see who is using the rooms after they have been cleaned x

Would stay again
We only stayed for one night, overall the stay was enjoyable.
However the twin beds were not very comfortable, pillows were hard and lumpy (preference obviously counts). We ate in the Victory Pub which was very nice. The hotel is situated in a lovely place just outside the Marina area so it's quiet and you can go for a walk on an evening. We often stay in Village Hotels because of the quality but I wasn't impressed of having to pay £5 each to use the leisure facilities. The breakfast was really really good and there were plenty of options. Staff nice and friendly so overall a good but a few tweeks and it could of been excellent.

Staff were so friendly and helpful, both on reception and in breakfast room.
One of the best cooked breakfasts in this type of hotel that I have ever had. The mattress and pillows were high quality and very comfy. No faults what so ever.

Good Hotel
Good hotel, very good location, within easy walk to the city centre or Marina.
Best in Swansea
We have stayed at this hotel quite a few times and it is very nice when you notice that the high standards set by this hotel never slip.
The hotel is very clean and the staff are probably the best of any hotel that we have stayed in.
