Camea & Jan van Lier @ Noice! (12.12.2012)

Biography of Camea:
Camea was born and raised in the Seattle music scene as a pianist and lover of all genres of music. In her youth she studied both classical and jazz theory as well as dance, and spent a lot of time playing in bands. Later in her teens she fell into the Seattle grunge and rock trends, but her lifestyle quickly changed when she discovered electronic music and bought turntables in 1999. After spending a few years perusing local record stores, Camea began to collect labels like Perlon, Playhouse and Minus. This eventually led her to the artistically thriving city of Brooklyn, NY, where she moved in 2002, immediately immersing herself in the city’s music scene. Brooklyn’s intense artistic environment became a magical time for her, as this is where she discovered an abundance of new music and met Ambivalent, Alexi Delano, Tim Xavier, and Tony Rohr and spawned Clink Recordings, launching her career as an International DJ by 2005. Soon after her tour schedule became worldwide, and two years later she relocated to Berlin where she resides today.

DJing has stayed the forefront of Camea's passion but she has also moved her interests into the studio. She released her first solo EP in 2006 and has achieved a discography of original work and/or remixes featured on labels like Bpitch Control, Minus, Clink, Soma, and Get Physical. In 2011 she became the first female producer to ever put music on Richie Hawtin’s Plus 8 label, which featured her remix on Ambivalent’s “Jackson” EP. During this time she also released her first compilation on her imprint titled, Clinkology. Soon after in 2012 arrived her first solo release on Bpitch Control.
As a DJ, Camea’s house/techno hybrid sound has secured her a regular tour schedule around the world. She is a passionate performer and her sound is best described as Seattle cool meets Brooklyn edge meets Berlin chic, and she blends her more traditional musician roots with modern melodic concepts and groovy percussion. Her tracks have topped sales and DJ charts on many occasions, and she has been center stage at many of the world’s hottest clubs and festivals. Since her relocation to Berlin in 2007 Camea has become one of the handful of women from America to make it to the International stage for her genre.

Home WELLNESS MIND & BODY Mind & Body: July 2014

Mind & Body: July 2014

Island Inspiration: Tropical ingredients give these problem-solving skincare products added flair.

mindandbodyJuly2014Sénica founder Benardett K. Jno-Finn, who grew up on the island of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, created what would become her all-natural body product line in response to her own skincare struggles. “I always had sensitive skin, and then I moved to Syracuse, New York [to attend college],” she says. “When I moved to Syracuse, the drastic change in the weather really caused a lot of complications for me and my skin.” The biochemistry student spent a great deal of time at the dermatologist’s office, seeking treatment for conditions like eczema and dermatitis.

“That’s when I started looking at ingredients that I grew up with,” Jno-Finn remembers. “Starting with that, and researching other ingredients, I started to create products for myself.”

Thus, the idea behind Sénica was born. The products’ moisturizing bases, like cocoa butter, shea butter and coconut oil, help soothe dry skin, while ingredients like lavender and lemon offer natural antiseptic and astringent properties, respectively.

Essential oils in scents like lavender, tea tree, orange and bay rum help calm and balance the senses. “They’re head-to-toe products that can be used on all skin types,” Jno-Finn says.

In Syracuse, Jno-Finn found that with the help of her self-created skincare regimen, along with regular exercise and good hydration, her skin issues abated. “Those are the things that form the foundation of Sénica,” she says. “When you pay attention to your body and how it responds to things, a lot of times, you can curb those issues without major medical intervention.”

After moving to New Orleans in 2007, Jno-Finn launched Sénica at the Freret Market. The company has grown to include other hair and body products, including Senk solid shampoo and conditioner bars, which avoid stripping the hair’s natural oils.
“At the end of the day, I get to help a lot of people celebrate their natural beauty,” Jno-Finn says. senicanaturals.com

Better Butters: More omega-3s, please!

Bella Nut Butters began in founder Sydney Bazan’s kitchen, as the mom of two started creating alternatives to peanut butter for her kids’ school lunches. “It was literally a ‘little bit of this and a little bit of that’ kind of recipe until I began measuring ingredients to get accurate nutrition information,” Bazan says of her first batch of “sunbutter.”

When Hollygrove Market bought a case each of her Sunflower Honey, Peanut Butter Vanilla and Almond Joy butters, Bazan created a company at her husband’s urging. She makes her seed and nut butters with perilla seed oil, which contains high levels of healthy omega-3 fatty acids, and includes other delectable, organic ingredients, like chia seeds, cinnamon, cacao powder and local raw honey. “Each jar has over 3,000 milligrams of omega-3s per serving,” she says.

Last summer, Bazan formed an LLC and made Bella Nut Butters official. “We’ve taken off, partly because our product is handcrafted from the highest-quality ingredients and is incredibly fresh, not to mention clean-tasting and loaded with omega-3s,” she says. “Our products are all vegan, except the Sunflower Maca Cinnamon Honey, and that all depends on how vegan you are!”

Bella Nut Butters has grown quickly, with plans in progress to diversify offerings and partner with other health-oriented retailers and organizations — and Bazan is watching the company head for Canada. “We are already a fast-growing company, but we have been approached by a major food distributor who sells to 500 stores in [Montreal and Ottawa], as well as distributors in the Toronto area,” she says. That’s not to mention the many nut-butter fans that have reached out from places as distant and diverse as Asia, Australia and the United Kingdom.

Bazan sees herself building Bella Nut Butters for her children, a mission that brings the company’s existence full-circle from its start in a school lunchbox. “My biggest challenge is balancing motherhood and business,” Bazan says. “Hats off to every working mama — single or married, entrepreneur or not — in existence.” bellanutbutters.com

Winning Attitude: Keep an eye out for this rising track star.

High school sophomore Chelsey Jones has had to overcome a few setbacks to pursue her passion for running. This spring, the young athlete’s hard work paid off when she set a record in the 800-meter event, completing the run in just over two minutes, 12 seconds at the Louisiana High School Athletic Association Track and Field State Championships.

“I always wanted to break the state record,” says Jones, who also runs cross-country. “That’s what I’ve been training for since I started running. It felt really good, and I was proud of myself.”

The child of two runners, Jones began running at the age of nine. “My parents put me, and my brother and sister, in summer track, and that was my first time running,” she says. She liked the sport immediately for its personal challenges. “When I run a really good time, it makes me feel good about myself and finally achieving that goal,” she says.

However, the past two years of running have posed several physical challenges for Jones. “I had a bruised bone in my right knee, and then I had hip problems in both of my hips,” she says. “And then I had a stress fracture.” Despite having to sit out half of one cross-country season because of the fracture, she hasn’t slowed down.

The teenage runner plans to become a general surgeon, and has already picked her top three colleges: Oregon State University, Texas A&M University and the University of Florida. Naturally, all three schools have excellent track programs.

Jones offers this advice to those who might like to achieve more confidence and break records of their own: “Just keep working hard. You should always push yourself to reach your goals. If you really set your mind to something, you can do it.”

cvBlob library for Android

I recently moved to Barcelona to start working in here. Although I’m not working in any computer-vision based project, I still keep a high interest in this field, trying to conduct as many personal projects as possible. My work team is highly motivated and full of professionals, and we all keep our personal projects besides our work.

Recently I met Fegabe in Barcelona, who’s a member of the GTUG Barcelona core team and an Android Developer. We decided to start together a Sudoku Solver for Android. Although there are already many of them published in the Market, we just wanted to do it for fun and to get a bit deeper into computer vision and pattern recognition. There is an OpenCV port for Android, but we decided to keep our implementation pure Java.

The following steps are applied in order to capture, detect and solve the Sudoku:

-The user must take a picture of the Sudoku using the camera of the device.

-After the picture is taken, a Threshold is applied to the image, so we can get a black and white version. Of course, there is some preprocessing involved. Things like smoothing out noise, some morphological operations, etc.

-When the picture has been taken, we apply a blob detection in order to detect the biggest segment of the image. We work under the assumption that this segment will be the outer line of the Sudoku table.

-Afterwards, we can use the Hough transform to get lines in the image. It returns lines in mathematical terms. So after this step, we’ll know exactly where a lines lies… and not just the pixels where it lies.

-When the lines has been detected, it will be easier to locate each individual cell. The number inside will be recognized using a neural network.

-The last step is the easiest: we just solve the sudoku by using any of all the known algorithms

The Sudoku Solver is still to be finished, but the cvBlob library is working fine, so I decided to publish it. The implementation is based on Dr. Andrew Greensted suggestion for Blob Detection.

I shared the project with a GPL license in Google Code. All the technical information can be found there, besides the source code and a binary file for Android. If you wanna try out, I would highly appreciate any feedback

blob detection

TrafficVision is an application presented to the context AbreDatos (the Spanish Version of Apps for America). With the popularization of the traffic cameras on our roads and the improvement of computer vision techniques, new possibilities for improving traffic management are arising. trafiCVision attempts to demonstrate this concept by joining these two worlds.

So we’ve developed a platform where the camera images of traffic from the Dirección General de Tráfico (Traffic National Department) scattered throughout the Spanish territory, are converted into numeric information displaying the number of vehicles each processed image contains. Thus, an interactive map is generated which reflects graphically the traffic congestion in the area where the camera is located. This map provides information in a way that would not be possible just by visiting the image.

The application can be accessed here. The source code can be checked here.

Blog: Third Floor Movement

Apr 24 2013

Third Floor Movement have two passions: Jesus and music. They've neatly figured out how to combine these passions in their first album 'Sing of This Love'.

The guys are all around university age, based in the Tunbridge Wells area. They each serve in the worship teams of their respective churches, with most of them leading regularly in some capacity.

Have a look at the promo brochure to read the band's biographies. Andrew is the frontman, co-writing and arranging the songs with Ross, with input from Jack, Dave and Tom. The band started back in 2010 as an evolution of a local church youth band. Andrew’s studies at the aptly named Canterbury Christ Church University have been a catalyst for growth, as well as introducing him to Tom and Ross. As the band has matured, the music too has developed in leaps and bounds.

They are a gifted lot, all being able to play multiple instruments, so swapping instruments between songs has become a feature of their live performances. On most TFM songs you’ll hear Andrew singing lead vocal with Ross providing backing vocals, harmonies and acoustic guitar. Tom plays bass, Jack’s on drums and Dave provides the glue on electric guitar.

Sing Of This Love is their debut mini-album, a collection of favourite original songs from the last couple of years. The recording quality shines through; the mixing and producing were entrusted to Neil Costello at the iconic ICC studios in Eastbourne. Neil has worked with many of the big names in Christian music through his connections with Kingsway and Integrity music and his input, guidance and sage advice has been invaluable.

Describing the band’s musical style has been interesting; Jono (LTTM) suggestsclean British indie rock’, which the guys were pleased with! There’s something for everyone in their music and that’s what they’re aiming to achieve; music that’s accessible to all, regardless of their beliefs, but unashamedly carrying Christian lyrics. Jono says ‘This is a band who have written songs that have real meaning and actually at times lyrically you get a real sense of God’s Glory.

You can find the lyrics and chord sheets for all the band’s songs on their website along with practical videos for worship leaders.

The band’s desire is to write songs that come from a very personal place, based around life experiences. By My Side is one of those honest songs. From the start you can tell the song has been lived through words grounded in scripture. It expresses a desire to walk side by side with God while facing the reality that it’s a harder path to follow. It also brings revelation about the clarity in purpose that walking with God provides.

One of those purposes is to share God’s word through their songs. Jack says, “if just one person comes to Christ from hearing our songs then that’s good enough.”

Another purpose is to share Jesus through direct action. Most of the guys have been on short term overseas mission or involved in local outreach activities, generally organised through their churches. Jack has been to Mozambique, Ross has worked in Albania and Tanzania, and Dave is intending to visit the latter this summer.

They see serving God as a lifelong adventure full of opportunities to serve people who are poor or vulnerable, which is why they are teaming up with Tearfund to promote their various youth programmes through and their short-term missions program with

We hope you enjoy the album and a big thank you for listening to our songs! Hopefully they speak some of God’s love into your life too. We don’t know what the future holds but it’s exciting to see what God’s got in store. We’ve already got a bunch of new songs together with the goal of recording a full album of new songs at the end of the year - watch this space!

- Andrew, Ross, Dave, Jack & Tom

Sunday, August 26, 2007Miami Dade Fire Rescue, Urban Search and Rescue Florida Task Force 1 Members were on the scene since last night. Search dogs worked the scene all night.

According to current reports, sometime early this morning, an apartment building in Brittons Hill, Barbados fell into a cave below.

Five family members are known to be trapped in the collapse, although reports have not be made as to whether these are the only individuals involved. Rescue workers, as well as several prominent politicians are currently on the scene; two cranes have been deployed to remove debris. Evacuation has occurred, with an extension of this area being discussed.

Miami Dade Police arrived on the scene late Sunday night and are now in a joint effort with the Barbados Defence Force, Barbados Fire Service and Royal Barbados Police Force to rescue possible survivors. Prime Minister Owen Arthur also stated that surveys are currently being conducted to determine the stability of the surrounding area, and only after these reports have been compiled will residents know whether they will be able to return to their homes.

A cadaver dog was sent into the cavern and has identified two areas where there are possible dead bodies. Sadly it is no longer a rescue mission but recovery one.

Maat - To know the history to create the future

From the Company to the English Crown

In 1690 the English of the Company of the Eastern India establish a base in Calcutta.

In 1858 the English Crown took the direct control of India.

The Empire of the Great Mogol, begun in 1526 with Baber, great-grandson of Tamberlain, had arrived at the end.

Locality: India

Age: From 1690 to 1858

The English arrive in India

On 5 june 1659, Aurangzeb, of the family of Mogol, was crowned emperor; he took the name of Alamgir, that is "owner of the world". He would die on 20 February 1707. Under his reign Europeans, in particular English and French ones, began the penetration in India.

In 1690 the English settled down in Calcutta, in Bengal. In 1700 over 1200 English lived there. At the beginning of 1700 Fort William was constructed.

The English begin to take part in the Indian matters

In 1749 the French, as a result of European vicissitudes, had to yield Madras to the English .

In 1750 the English became part in a vicissitude of local succession and in 1752 the Indians named nawab of Arcot Muhammad Ali.

Indians attack Fort William

In april 1756 Ali Vardi, the nawab of Bengal, died. Siraj, the successor, in summer 1756 attacked Fort William as the English had added fortifications without his permission. Roger Drake, the responsible for the Company, and the greatest part of the men of the garrison escaped on the ships. 160 soldiers, many women and children remained ashore. On 20 june the attack was delivered . At noon general Holwell had to surrender. In the night, 146 prisoners, comprised a woman and wounded people, were thrown in the prison of Fort William, a cell without air of 4 per 5.5 meters. In the morning only 23 of them were alive.

The reaction of the English

In January 1757 Fort William was reconquered by the English.

The Company formed an alliance with the Hindu bankers of Calcutta and particularly with Jagat Seth, the Rothschild of the place, who, displeased of the new nawab, supported Mir Ja'far, considered more malleable than Siraj.

On 23 june 1757 there was the battle of Plassey, between Calcutta and Murshidabad. With only 800 European soldiers and 2,000 sepoy, the army of the Company, guided by Clive, put the 50,000 men of Siraj to rout. Mir Ja'far became nawab of Bengal.

The Company controls Bengal

Clive obtained as a reward a personal patrimony of 234,000 pounds, was named mansabdar of 6,000 men with one annual wage of 30,000 pounds, equivalent to the revenue of 24 pargan (regions) of Bengal.

In 1760 the Company replaced Mir Ja'far with Mir Kasim. As a reward the Company obtained that approximately half million of silver pounds were transferred every year from Bengal to the British ships.

The Company controls Bengal, the Bihar and the Orissa

In 1763 the Company replaced Mir Kasim, who wanted to control the merchants, with the weaker Mir Ja'far, who was in office until his death in 1765.

Mir Kasim ordered that all the English resident at Patna were killed, then he escaped to Luckow and asked help to Shuja-to-Dulah, nawab of the Audh, and to his royal host, the Mogol emperor Shah 'Alam.

On 22 October 1764 at Buxar (Bakshar), between Banaras and Patna, the major Munro with exiguous troops beat the army of the mogol coalition.

With an edict of 12 August 1765 Shah 'Alam had to allow to the Company the collection of the Bengal, Bihar and Orissa taxes, as the Company had become divan of the emperor for those territories. In exchange for this the Company paid to the emperor 260,000 pounds a year for the maintenance of the court of Allahabad. The administration of the territories remained formally in the hands of the nawab, who however had no more funds with which to manage expenses.

At the end of 1769 the monsoonal rains did not fall, in 1770 Bengal found itself lacking completely alimentary supplies and at least a third of the population died of starvation. The English merchants made incredible transactions speculating on the hunger of poor people.

The Company determined later on to halve the wage of the nawab and not to pay the annual tribute to the mogol emperor. On the other hand the Company introduced more effective systems of collecting taxes.

Military activities

In 1774 the Company sent English soldiers to help the nawab-wazir of Audh, Shuja-to-Daulah, in his fight against the Rohilla afghans.

In 1775 according to the Treaty of Surat, the English promised to the unthroned peshwa Raghunathrao 2,500 armed men, of which 700 Europeans, in change of gold and riches necessary in order to maintain them and of the perpetual cession of a certain number of islands near Bombay.

In 1780 the Company sent an army in order to help Madras and fought against Haidar 'Ali who had attacked Fort St. George.

Discrimination of the Indians

In 1790 the Company established that:

- no sepoy would never become official

- no civil employee with wage superior to 500 pounds would have been Indian.

Fiscal reform

In 1793 the Company reached an agreement with the zamindar that is the mogol tax-collectors of Bengal, for having a certain minimal yield: 3,750,000 pounds a year. The zamindar from concessionaires of the emperor, without right to sell lands assigned to them, were transformed in land owners.

But as soon as the zamindar, for some harvest gone badly or some other economic difficulty, were not in a position to pay the established tax, bankers and usurers of Calcutta hastened in order to take control of the lands. In this way the old mogol aristocracy was in part replaced by Hindu families: the Roy, the Sen, the Tagore. These families remained tied to the British regimen and in 1857-58 they manifested their fidelity to the new master.

Conquest of the Malabar

In 1792 the Company made war to the sultan Tipu who yielded large part of the coast of the Malabar.

Legislatives measures

The Company abolished the courts presided by Indian judges and at their place put courts presided by English people.

The magistrates had also police functions for certain types of crime. But in 1817 justice had again a separate body.

The district civil employees had to be English.

The assistants and the executive staff could be Indian.

It was established the monopoly on salt, which became one of the main sources of income of the Company.

A monopoly was established also for the opium, sent to China in exchange for silk and tea.

The Company reserved the right to impose taxes and prices.

In 1798 the general governor lord Richard Colley arrived to India, with his younger brother Arthur, the future duke of Wellington, winner of Napoleone.

On 4 May 1799 the sultan Tipu fell before the English army when his capital Seringapatam was attacked. Half of the Mysore and Madras were taken by the Company and were joined to the western coast. Other territories were given to Indian allied.

A short time later the nizam of Hyderabad yielded the Berar, the nawab-wazir of the Audh had to dismiss his army beyond yielding the Doab and the Rohilkhand. Surat and Tanjore were absorbed.

On 31 December 1802, with the treaty of Bassein, the peshwa Baji Rao II, after his defeat, became allied of the Company.

In 1812 Baji Rao II began to make resistance, then he was put on a ship and sent to Bithur, a castle in proximity of Kanhpur (Cawnpore).

The lands of hostile noble (sardar) were seized. But many jargirdar succeeded to maintain their lands declaring fidelity to the English.

Between 1813 and 1833 the English opened the doors of India to the imports from the motherland. The cotton fabrics machine-made in England supplanted completely the local production. Millions of women and men remained without job.

Also in the agricultural world the industrial revolution carried serious changes. The situation of the peasants became precarious. India was no more self-sufficient and had to import from foreign countries also foodstuffs.

Modifications to the canalization system quadruplicated swampy areas and the fields, up to then fertile, became sterile due to drought.

In 1832 Persian stopped to be the official language of the legislation and of the courts. English became the language of the administration.

In 1835 the effigy of the English monarch appeared over the rupees.

Between 1828 and 1833 17 palaces of Agra were taken apart and sent to England for being put to the auction. The English arrived even to place scaffoldings around the Taj Mahal.

Conquest of the Sind

In 1843 Napier started a military campaign against the amir of the Sind. On 17 February 1843 5,000 men of the Sind were massacred. The English lost 256 soldiers.

Conquest of the Punjab

In 1844 Ranjit Singh, maharaja of the reign of the sikh of the Punjab, died. The succession was suffered and in December 1845 the army of the Company attacked. On 9 March 1846 it was signed a treaty with which all the lands comprised between the rivers Beas and Satlej, beyond the Kashmir, were delivered to the English. In 1849 hostility resumed and on 30 March the entire Punjab was put under British administration.

Principle of extinction

After 1849 the Company proceeded to integration of still independent territories resorting to the spurious legal principle of the extinction: the expression "heirs and successors" in all deals had to be considered reported only to natural heirs, not to the adopted ones. In 1854 the state of Nagpur with 4 million inhabitants was in this way annexed by the English.

Cartridges of cow and pig

In 1857 the use of animal fat in the cartridges provoked the rage in Hindu soldiers, who thought tath cartridges had been made with the meat of cow, and in the muslim soldiers, who thought it was of pig. In fact the tip of the cartridges had to be torn with the teeth and no soldier wanted to violate the alimentary prohibition of their own religion.

The great revolt

On Saturdays 9 May 1857 the rebellion at Meerut was set off, just for the problem of cartridges. On Sunday the rebellious troops headed towards Delhi. On 11 May the city fell in the hands of the rebellious ones and Bahadur Shah II, however reluctant, was reintegrated in the imperial Glory of Great Mogol.

The English present at Delhi were killed. On 16 May prince Mirza decapitated English women and children. A horrid ride was organized in the evening with the heads of the victims on nozzles.

On 19 May the imam declared solemnly the Saint war against the infidels. The Hndu protested. The imam specified that for infidel it was meant "English". In order to calm the Hindu it was also forbidden the use of beef meat to every people, comprised the Muslims.

The rebellion exploded in other zones. At the beginning of june general Wheleer did not succeed to defend 400 persons, comprised women and children, in the intrenched field of Cawpore. He surrendered after 18 days with the agreement of a safe-conduct. But, as soon as people had gone on the boats, the Indian troops began to shoot. Only 4 were saved.

On 6 september the English besieged Delhi. The evening of 14 it happened the assault and began the slaughter, that lasted until 20. Approximately 120,000 Indians were killed, of which at least 100,000 civilians.

Three sons of the Great Mogol introduced themselves at the doors of Delhi in order to pray captain Hodson to interrupt the slaughter. The captain extracted the gun and killed them.

On the evening of 18 December by torches ligth captain Hodson proceeded to the arrest of the Great Mogol. Bahadur Shah II was exiled in Birmania.

The rebellion continued until 8 July 1858.

On 2 August 1858 the British government approved the Government of India Act with which all the rights enjoyed by the Company were transferred to the Crown.

Between 1857 and 1858 the English had made more dead men than Tamberlain and of all the emperors of Delhi put together.

Tornos : Konigsee Implantate installs two new Tornos machines
Enquire about this Story

For more than 20 years, Königsee Implantate in Königsee, has been developing and producing implants and instruments for traumatology, orthopedics and spinal surgery with enormous success. In the course of continuous process improvements, two new Tornos EvoDeco 16 machines were purchased in 2017 and they have already passed the test brilliantly.

In the medical industry, Konigsee is one of the top addresses with a long tradition. The roots of Konigsee Implantate go back to the end of World War I. In 1919, the orthopedic technician Otto Bock founded a company in Berlin to provide disabled war veterans with

prostheses and other orthopedic products. Shortly afterwards, the company moved to Konigsee, in Thuringia. This company was the origin for Konigsee Implantate GmbH, which was founded by Erich Orschler in 1993.

The success story of this company started with a small machine inventory and the strong determination of its employees. Initially, the company focused exclusively on the development and manufacturing of osteosynthesis systems for traumatology and

orthopedics. For more than 10 years now, it has also been offering solutions for spinal surgery. The products for almost all bone sections, from the collarbone to the toes, drastically speed up the healing process of fractures compared to conventional methods of treatment. New solutions constantly arise from the close collaboration with physicians and surgical teams. The development projects comprise the complete path of the value chain, from the idea and development of a prototype to the manufacture of the product. During this process, painstaking attention is paid to quality, since it is the basic requirement for the long service life and safe use of implants. This is why they purchased two new EvoDeco 16 machines

from Tornos.

Perfectly harmonized systems

In layman’s terms, an osteosynthesis system consists of a plate that is matched with the anatomy and screwed onto the bones with a variable number of screws of different lengths and diameters. This is done using special tools to stabilize fractures and help bones grow together. Konigsee comprises the entire manufacturing process from purchase and planning to the milling, turning, grinding and galvanization to the final inspection and warehousing. Design concepts are translated into series production.

Here, the materials used, the tight tolerances, the process stability, traceability and manufacturing costs are all considered. The pricing pressure has reached the medical industry and this means that top quality produce from Germany can only be competitive by applying a sophisticated manufacturing strategy. For this reason, Konigsee has invested in Tornos.

The fine art of turning

All the screws are produced in the turning shop. Fractures require screws of different lengths and diameters, as well as with different properties. Depending on their use, the screw types produced are self-tapping, self-drilling or reverse-tapping. The threads are either full threads up to the head or partial threads. The threads are whirled with various

pitches while heeding the tightest shape tolerances. The head faces usually have a hexagon or hexalobular (Torx) socket. Most of the screws are cannulated, featuring a channel to drain the tissue fluid.

The material used is usually titanium or implant steel. Even if it is not difficult to machine titanium, it features two special characteristics, low thermal conductivity and the difficulty to break the chips, which requires special cooling strategies. Tool wear is very

high due to the extreme toughness of the material. The varying lot sizes are between 25 and 150 pieces. All screws manufactured must be as burr-free as possible in order to minimize rework. The high expectations the company is making on itself are a constant motivation to strive for optimization of products and manufacturing processes. Although Konigsee had already been well positioned with seven Tornos machines, they decided to purchase two new EvoDeco 16 machines. Why exactly these machines?

A tuned up all-rounder

Thanks to their kinematics and tooling, Tornos EvoDeco’s are predestined for manufacturing complex workpieces with high quality. Christian Hedwig, manufacturing engineer for turning operations at Konigsee, gives us more reasons that were decisive

for the purchase of these machines: “Up to then, we had been using Deco 13 and Deco 20. On the two new machines, we can produce a larger diversity of parts, which makes us much more flexible.”

“On the other hand, the large number of tools opens up new possibilities in terms of machining even more complex workpieces in one set-up. This purchase has enabled us to improve our processes.” To do so, the machine has been further optimized by Konigsee. A high-pressure system by Muller Hydraulik has been installed with a pressure of up to 150 bar can be fed directly to the individual tool blocks through a manifold block. This significantly improves chip breakage and evacuation. As a consequence, the tool life and

process stability are extended. Stability is a major advantage of the Tornos machines.

They operate with high reliability and produce parts with absolute dimensional accuracy over a long period of time. Another interesting point is that the new EvoDeco’s have again reduced the production times by up to 30 percent. The employees of Konigsee

are full of praise after having started series production. They soon became familiar with the machine, since the TB-Deco control functions are extremely user-friendly and were already known in the company. At present, the machines are running in three shifts and help to further improve the already high standards of the Konigsee Implantate GmbH.

1.02 Nature of Indictment; Presumption of Innocence

This criminal case has been brought by the United States government. I will sometimes refer to the government as the prosecution. The government is represented at this trial by an assistant United States attorney, [_________]. The defendant, [__________], is represented by [his/her] lawyer, [__________]. [Alternative: The defendant, [__________], has decided to represent [him/herself] and not use the services of a lawyer. [He/She] has a perfect right to do this. [His/Her] decision has no bearing on whether [he/she] is guilty or not guilty, and it should have no effect on your consideration of the case.]

[Defendant] has been charged by the government with violation of a federal law. [He/She] is charged with [e.g., having intentionally distributed heroin]. The charge against [defendant] is contained in the indictment. The indictment is simply the description of the charge against [defendant]; it is not evidence of anything. [Defendant] pleaded not guilty to the charge and denies committing the crime. [He/She] is presumed innocent and may not be found guilty by you unless all of you unanimously find that the government has proven [his/her] guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

[Addition for multi-defendant cases: The defendants are being tried together because the government has charged that they acted together in committing the crime of [__________]. But you will have to give separate consideration to the case against each defendant. Do not think of the defendants as a group.]

This instruction is derived from Federal Judicial Center Instruction 1.

The Legend of Asato Gura

"if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely.
— Which is?
...Legend, Mr. Wayne."

Okinawa is full of legends. Some big. Some small. Eventually, they all fine their way across distant lands in the ears of the intrigued. Some time during the 19th century, word had spread in old Naha, that there was man of extraordinary strength. This man had lived up north on an island known today as Ie Jima. His name was Asato Gura. But to the villagers of Ie Island, he is known as Uputeimun, (the Strong Man) Asato Gura (ウプテイムンアサトグラ ). As word continued to spread, five men from Naha made the ambitious journey to challenge this man to see if the stories were true. Predictably, all five men, in an Okinawan-style sumo match, would succumb to Asato Gura's overpowering strength, henceforth, making him sort of a local hero and a 'bragging right' among village folks.

Asata Gura's exact age was never determined. It is believed though that he died in the year 1890. At Miisui (ミースィ) Park, on Ie Island, you will see this statue erected in his honor. You may wonder why he is standing firm like a mountain on boat while holding a flask in his left hand. Asato Gura was known for three things: being very strong, being a fisherman, and being a man who always had a bottle of liquor at his side.

Source of Information. Sign in Japanese underneath the Statue.

Directions. The statue and Miisui Park is on Ie Jima Island and is marked in the map above. Please refer to the article 'Travel Prep to Ie Jima' on getting there.

Notes. 1. The opening quote was taken from the motion picture, 'Batman Begins' 2. Uputeimun (ウプテイムン) is of the Okinawan Language (possibly an Ie Jima variant)

June 22nd, 1945 – The Great Okinawan War' comes to an end. The day after, the long road to recovery begins.

June 23rd is a day of healing. It is Okinawa's Memorial Day, known to the Okinawans as 'Irei no Hi' (慰霊の日). The 22nd and the 23rd of June are two bookends of an era tied to a significant event. One is an end to a war-torn past. The latter, a beginning to a brighter future. This is Okinawa's past and with it, countless wartime stories told by the Okinawans – stories that did not always have a peaceful end. Telling them is their way of preserving the honor and memories of those who tragically lost their lives many, many years ago. Telling them is their way to remind us, the consequences of war. On Ie Jima, there are two caves that are connected by the Battle of Okinawa. One is about life, the other about death. Sen-nin Gama (now called the Niya-Thiya Cave) was said to have a 1,000 people take refuge in its domain as war waged on between American and Japanese forces. There were no reported deaths as a result of the war. And inside, you will find a stone about life. It's a fertility stone. Visitors to Ie Jima come here to feel a special power. To them, it is a 'Power Spot' and is pronounced as such in their own language.

Then, there is the Ahashagama Cave. It is a cave that for two decades that was seemingly left to be forgotten, and for understandable reasons. In 1971, just twenty-six years after the war, the cave was revisited and excavated for its remains. A dark past was about to be revisited. It was discovered that about 150 people died. The cause... suicide by use of grenades, given to them by the then Japanese Imperial Army. About 20 survivors walked away from that dreadful aftermath. All remains were removed and sent to a separate location. A phone number is left behind for those relatives who come back to Ie Island wishing to pay respects to their ancestors (it should be of no surprise that some Ie villagers left the island after the war to get away from the horrific memories of the past). Stories like this are not uncommon during the Battle of Okinawa, where mass suicides were committed to avoid being captured by the oncoming US Forces – a fear that was propagated by the then Japanese Army. It is a sensitive and controversial subject even today.

But 'Irei no Hi' is not supposed to be a day of controversy. Like Memorial Day in the United States, all political positions are set aside for one day in what should be a solemn and quiet moment to honor and remember the fallen. June 23rd is a day that helps Okinawans move forward to the next horizon. The story of Ahashagama – an end to a terrible past, and yet a monument that reminds us to strive for a better future.

Author's Note. The word 'then' is highlighted to emphasize that it was the then Japanese Imperial Army. It is a sometimes human tendency to inadvertently convict an entire current generation of people to the tragedies that took place long, long ago... or to convict an entire group of people over the misdeeds of one individual. The Okinawan War can be a topic of heated debate. I realize this especially as someone who has both an American father and a Japanese mother. History, in the author's opinion, should always be viewed in the context of the times they occurred.

Soak, soak, soak!

I have been taking Dear Bess' advice, and have been soakin' up some endorphins in fabric, fibre and floss these last few days.

I finished my lovely "Summer's Eve" from Just Nan -- except for the beads which Janice at Traditional Stitches will teach me at our session next week. And I have started a new stitchery -- a Lizzie Kate tribute to marriage for my DD and her DH, who celebrate their First Anniversary! on May 1. My next sampler project (also to start with J. next week) will be "Take Time to Quilt" (Autumn version) from Jeannette Douglas Designs. This is the first of 4 of these I hope to do over the next several months -- one for each season.

Then there's the knitting. I have 2 more armhole decreases on my DH's cardigan back, and that'll bring me close to finishing it (the back, that is). That, plus one more baby cap, are destined to take up my time at the Knitting Room knit night tonight.

As for fabric, I have scrounged together 11 fabrics (!) for my Autumn Bargello -- Lesson 3 in "Bargello Seasons" from QU this week. All are washed and ready to be sliced into strips. Those, plus baby flannels in "Kids' Stuff" from
Connecting Threads for a little baby blanket, will keep me out of trouble for a while! I hear Bambino is due any day now, so I'd best get going!

Nir’s Note: This post part of a series on cognitive bias co-authored by Nir Eyal and illustrated by Prima Jeans Cigarette AG Rise Mid Skinny Lakshmi Mani. Discover other reasons you make terrible life choices like confirmation bias, Mini by amp; Broke Ruched Young YFB Fabulous Open Dress Back 6wq8wtdx andAG Skinny Cigarette Rise Jeans Prima Mid  Skinny Jeans AG Prima Mid Rise Cigarette distinction bias.

There I was, sitting in a packed movie theatre. I waited two years for this sequel and I’ve got enough popcorn and diet soda to last me a full three hours. Fifteen minutes into the movie, the hero and villain are facing off for the first time when a lady bursts into the theater. Trying to find a seat, she awkwardly tries to squeeze into the middle of the row in front of me blocking the best part of the movie. “What a rude and inconsiderate person!” I think to myself as I dodge her body when she scuffles by.

A week later I’m rushing to catch another film with my friends. It’s pouring rain and traffic is crazy. I hope I make it before the previews end but when I reach the theater (soaking wet I might add), the movie has already begun. I have to turn on the flashlight on my phone to find my seat and accidentally step on a few movie goers’ toes. I hear tuts and loud sighs. It’s clear these people think I’m a complete jerk.

“Well this isn’t my fault! It’s raining and the traffic was insane!” I think to myself as I take my seat. “I’m usually never late.”

The Fundamental Attribution Error Strikes Again

The “fundamental attribution error” is our bias to judge other people differently from how we judge ourselves. It is, according to Dr. Cristina Bicchieri, “the tendency to believe that what people do reflects who they are” — for better and for worse.

Dress Romeo Tie amp; Couture Eyelet Juliet Shoulder zYr7qnwYxClick To Tweet

This cognitive bias takes a few forms. The first occurs when things go poorly. When we screw up, we tend to believe things happened because of circumstances outside of our control. However, when others fail, we tend to think it is a result of poor choices or someone being a bad person.

For example, I believed that being late to the movie was due to the weather, something I couldn’t control. However, I didn’t give the same affordance to the other moviegoer who was late. I assumed she was a rude person despite having no idea what might have made her late.

The second type of fundamental attribution error occurs when things go well. When we succeed, we tend to believe it is the result of our talent and hard work. That might be true, however, when others succeed, our bias tends to make us think the other person got lucky or was privileged in some way. That college friend who made it big in Hollywood or your pal who now reports to the CEO at a Fortune 500 company, they were just at the right place at the right time, right?

Why So Judgy?

What’s the deal with our tendency to give ourselves the benefit of the doubt while not doing the same for others?

Firstly, it’s hard to see things clearly when we don’t have all the information. We only see a sliver of the world around us. When someone else screws up, we see them as the most obvious cause of the problem. We don’t see all the things that might also be going on. When it comes to our own mistakes, we’re fully aware of the factors outside our control, so we understand the context of why we tripped up.

On the flip side, attributing our successes to our awesomeness boost our confidence, makes us feels good, and improves our reputation among the people around us.

Turns out that confidence boost can benefit us and may even serve an evolutionary purpose. Researchers believe it may help us take on beneficial risks as we change our perception of what we’re capable of.

For example, a study of unemployed college grads found those who credited their successes to themselves, were more likely to find a job than students who tended to blame themselves for failures. The researchers’ believe students who viewed things in a more self-serving way were more motivated and optimistic about their futures.

End of an Error

While the fundamental attribution error has some benefits, it also has a downside when it comes to how we think about others. Being aware of this tendency can help us put it in its place. Here are two ways to make sure the bias doesn’t get the best of us:

1. Acknowledge the Role of Chance

Have you paused to grasp how many things had to go just right for you to be reading this sentence right now? In the 13.8 billion years since the big bang, out of the billions of planets floating around the black abyss of space, among countless galaxies, two million years of human evolution just happened to insert one special sperm out of millions into one single egg that made you. The odds of winning this cosmic lottery are mind blowing. And the best part is, you had nothing to do with it.

You also happened to be alive in the safest, healthiest, most well-educated, most equitable time in human history. Sure, things are far from perfect in the world, but for the average person, now is a whole lot better than any other time in history.

Remembering how many things outside of our control had to go just right, can help us feel more grateful and reminds us of how lucky we are that so many things we had nothing to do with went just so. This same attitude regarding the role chance plays in all our lives can help us cultivate a more unbiased point of view.

2. Try Some Empathy

Research shows we are more likely to fall for the fundamental attribution error when we make quick judgements of others. The next time you find yourself critical of someone else’s behavior, blaming who they are instead of what they did, try practicing some empathy.

Practicing empathy Vintage Strappy Dye Tie Petite Dress Como aT6qfw the fundamental attribution error. Researchers believe pretending you are in the shoes of the person you are likely to blame makes us kinder and less judgmental.

For example, that person who cut you off in traffic might be a jerk, or alternatively, maybe the driver is a woman in labor. Of course, you’ll never know, but why not consider it anyway? Your anger won’t change her driving and does nothing but cause you undue stress.

Before being so quick to judge, try coming up with an alternative story behind why someone might behave a certain way. It doesn’t matter if the story is a little whacky, you’ll likely find a scenario you could potentially see yourself in.

Just Humans

Humans seem to be hardwired to make the fundamental attribution error. It evolved to aid our survivalApplique Cinq Sweater a Monarch Sept Beaded aZq6a by bolstering our confidence and reputation. However, in modern society, this cognitive bias can hurt us and others more than it serves us. It can cause us to lose our cool, get into more trouble because of the repercussions of our anger, or ruin our day if we let it.

However, this bias isn’t our destiny. There are ways we can fight this tendency and live a happier more empathetic life. The next time you catch yourself about to lose your patience, are tempted to give someone the stink eye or judge them as a bad person, remember they’re human, just like you. Give them the benefit of the doubt and put yourself in their shoes, even if it takes a little effort. We’ll all be better off for it.

'Chemistry by Graham Swift', 'Snowdrops by Leslie Norris', and finally 'Superman and Paula Brown's New Snowsuit by Sylvia Platt.'

Extracts from this document...

How do the authors of the anthology deal with the subject of change? In this essay I am comparing three stories together. These stories are 'Chemistry by Graham Swift', 'Snowdrops by Leslie Norris', and finally 'Superman and Paula Brown's New Snowsuit by Sylvia Platt.' I will investigate how the stories are similar and different, and also how they come across to the reader. I will explore the techniques they use and how each author deals with the subject of change. 'Chemistry' is about a boy recalling his childhood and that sees an 'invisible' bond between himself, his mother, and his grandfather. He uses the boat to symbolise the bond, and when the boat sinks, the bond is broken. We see things as the boy saw it, recall the boy's thoughts and emotions of how he felt towards his mother's lover Ralph. 'Snowdrops' is from another boy's memory, where it outlines two different worlds, the adult world, and the child world. The boy is excited by the thought of seeing snowdrops that his teacher Miss Webster was taking them to see. He is excited of seeing the flowers as he believes they are magical. The boy finally sees the flowers and feels depressed because they are not exciting at all. 'Superman and Paula Brown's New Snowsuit' is set from the eyes of a girl, who always thought her Uncle Frank was like superman, and has a lovely life until a few incidents ruin it for her. ...read more.

At the beginning of the story the girl has nice pleasant dreams of superman, near the end superman is gone and her dreams turn into horrible nightmares. The authors of these stories have different memories but the same kind of plot, each story is set from the eyes of the child. There appears to be two different worlds, the child's world, and the adult's world. All the authors use the technique of 'setting the scene'; they each keep the conclusion to the end, whether the story has a good ending or a bad ending. We do not know that these stories are real pastimes of the authors, nor do we know if the writer is trying to create an impression and is using the story as an anecdote. We do know however know that each story has something very similar; we never know the narrators name. In Superman and Paula Brown's New Snowsuit, we see through the eyes of a girl, who is never actually named. In Chemistry, we see through the eyes of a boy, who is also never named. In Snowdrops we see through the eyes of another boy, he is never named either. I think that the authors used this as a 'mysterious' technique so you wonder if this was the authors past or if this is just a story the author wrote. ...read more.

The language used in these stories is informative yet childlike, it is easy to read and quick to read as well. The stories are not very long; about ten pages would be the maximum to expect. In Chemistry the boy gives the reason of why he recalls certain events e.g. 'I remember it because it was the same Saturday Grandfather recalled the wreck of my boat' In Snowdrops, the boy starts off with a confusing/mystifying statement 'Today Miss Webster was going to show them the snowdrops growing in the little three cornered garden outside the school keepers house, where they weren't allowed to go.' This makes us think 'Who is narrating?' 'Who are them/they?' In Superman and Paula Brown's New Snowsuit the poor girl is shown the real images of war, and her own mind would not let her look away 'I blocked my ears to muffle the sound of the men groaning, but I could not tear my eyes away from the screen.' In conclusion I believe that the authors are very successful in writing these stories and in my opinion each story is well structured and planned. Each story was very easy to read, quite short but informative. These stories were very interesting to read; the authors give a whole new aspect to "Short Stories" and have shown me a new way to write short stories. By Callum Tooey ...read more.

Farmers Market and More Trains at Wilson Park

I read that if kids help pick out fruits and vegetables they are more likely to try them. Hailey likes to feel involved. It is fun for her to pick a few things out and help pay for them.

She still had to be convinced we had to pay for the carrots before we could took bites out of them.

We found  lots of delicious treasures in the farmers' market that came home with us.

Last year we planted artichokes and didn't get any.... hopefully we will have better luck this year.

Found a cute little yorkie to hug.

Someone can't read the signs that says Don't Feed the Ducks Kettle Popcorn!

Happy as a clam.

She likes to hide behind tree and jump out, and then waits for someone to chase her.

Time to have some lunch.

Hailey didn't want to sit and have lunch with us; she had to be ticked into submission.

Evan just wanted to sit and eat crackers.

Since Hailey just wanted to run around we had to strap her down so the rest of us could eat.

Just tickled to death.

Found his dad's apple.

Evan loved being outside at the park.

Checking out the cool giant tree house.

One Saturday a month they give free train rides.

Our ride lasted about 30 minutes.

The naughty people on our train de-railed their train car and got kicked off and had to walk back.

Fun little cargo trains.

Time for a nap.

Then we played at the park.

We know we are almost home when we pass Randy's Donuts.

Steve's parents were so nice to take us out to dinner last night; we really liked the flatbread appetizer and decided to make some at home.

McLean County Fair Receives Facility Grant

McLean County Fair Board President, Fred Grieder (left) accepts grant funds from Dan Guth, with Compeer Financial.

McLean County Fair received a $3,000 Facility Upgrade Grant from the Compeer Financial Fund for Rural America. The grant funds were used to improve lighting at the horse arena on the fairgrounds.

Compeer Financial awarded a total of 64 grants totaling $180,000 to support fairground enhancement projects at local and county fairs in Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin this year.

“Compeer Financial proudly supports local and county fairs across our Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin territory, recognizing the important role they play in youth development, and in celebrating agricultural heritage and rural life,” said John Monson, chair of Compeer Financial’s
Fund for Rural America.

County fairs enhance rural communities by bringing people of all ages together to learn and experience agriculture. The grant program is designed to help fund upgrades and repairs of fairgrounds and facilities so fairs can continue to offer the best possible experience to fair-goers year after year.
