The cruiser Aurora had served with distinction in the Russo-Japanese War. During the First World War, she was on routine assignments in the Baltic. This was a vessel which would have slipped quietly into maritime history were it not for its key role in signalling the start of the October Revolution. She is the sole ship to have received the Order of the October Revolution, which includes an image of the Aurora in the insignia. In short, this vessel - more than any single structure, perhaps more than any individual bar Lenin - came to symbolise the revolution.


Since 1956, the Aurora has been a museum ship - one of the star tourist attractions in St Petersburg. One might have expected this Russian city to be en fête this autumn, it being the centenary of the October Revolution. But the mood is muted. The Aurora has been spruced up for the occasion, and the extensive exhibition area in the ship has been entirely revamped. If you look for stirring images of brave Bolsheviks, red flags and Lenin, they are hard to find. There's much more emphasis on the Aurora's missions in the Far East. The dramatic events of October 1917, and the central role of the Aurora in the Bolshevik narrative, get a mention, but it's almost by way of a footnote in the wider story of the ship.


She may have been the vessel which fired the shot which echoed around the world. But in 2017, those echoes now seem to be fading all too quickly.


NAI Hiffman’s Dan Leahy, executive vice president with the Industrial services group, is moderating today’s NAIOP Chicago All-Star Industrial Panel. Speakers include Carter Andrus of Prologis, Brian Kling of Colliers International, Brett Kroner of CBRE, Jeff Lanaghan of IDI, and Brian Roach of DCT Industrial.


1256078 ing out of that factory have been markedly improved. They took many of their paddler’s complaints to heart and implemented the changes in their new batch of inflatables.


All this was done while keeping the kayak weight about 50 lbs yet it still can handle weights of up to 550 lbs. My wife and I weigh about 120 lbs and 180 lbs respectively, which allowed us to bring plenty of additional gear and supplies to our weekend river kayaking trip, without the need for a second kayak.


This kayak is also priced the lowest of the bunch at round $600-$800 depending on if you get the solo, tandem, or any upgrades at the time of purchase.


One thing to keep in mind, you should always have these kayaks inflatable to the manufacturer’s PSI. Never under inflated. Even if it means using an electric pump at first and then topping it of with a hand pump. This will help it track well and travel fast. Just like we like it.


If you want a kayak to last you a lifetime get the AIRE. I kid you not. We have ours for over 20+ years. You read that right, 20 plus years. They are that good.


They are great for advanced paddlers in Class IV whitewater rafting and paddlers that just want to enjoy a weekend in the lake.


Now, would I spend $1,600 on my first kayak? No, absolutely not. Get a Sea Eagle for $300 and learn to paddle first. But if you already passed your beginner’s phase using someone else’s kayak and are looking to get your own inflatable, or you want to level-up from your previous one. This one is it.


Not much has changed since its introduction, nor does it need to. AIRE was never known for using cheap parts in their inflatables, they have been premium made right from the start.


And did I mentioned it’s a head turner? Everytime we take this beauty out to the water we get looks and complements without fail.


Its comfortable, easy to use, and performs great. Highly recommended. In fact, the only reason its #3 on our list, is because of the price. But if you have the budget this would be out top pick.


Not everyone can or want to spend $1,000 on a kayak. Especially when your a beginner and just starting to get into this sport. My first kayak was right about $200-300.


For that reason we rounded up our top choice inflatable kayaks under $300 that would not only be a good starting kayak but also one to keep for future use when you have extra members joining you on your water trips.


With a price tag right under $300 for the Start Up package, the SE 370 is perfect for both beginners and experienced kayakers on a budget.


This affordable kayak is rated class 3 for whitewater use. Personally, I would stick to flatwater and cam ocean paddling when choosing the SE 370.


It can handle rough waters, there is no question about it, but I would get the 300x or 380x if that’s your high wind waters, and whitewater rafting is your main sport.


Lastly, the price, in my opinion, is something that should be taken into account any time you make a major purchase. I noticed that when I spend $1k+ on a kayak I am more careful and maybe even a bit too concerned when taking it out on the water as to not damage it.


The beauty of spending $300-$350 on a good kayak is that you get to enjoy it without worrying how much it cost you. I highly recommend spending an extra $50 and upgrade to the Pro package, as the upgraded seats will make a huge difference on your long multi-hours kayaking sessions.


This Sevylor inflatable is a two person kayak that’s made of heavy duty 26-gauge PVC with two air chambers for enhanced security and a tubular I-beam floor which gives stability.


It’s equipped with specially designed inflatable seats that have comfortable back support with two spray covers for protection with an optional directional skeg. This kayak can hold up to 400 pounds and measures 10’7″ by 2’7″.


This is the very same kayak that had traversed the entire length of the Mississippi river, and is ready to be taken on any adventure you can throw at it regardless of where you travel. However, I would recommend a sea kayak if long expedition style sea adventures is your thing.


It’s also guaranteed not to leak with Tahiti’s exclusive Airtight system that you can feel rest assured punctures is one thing you don’t have to stress about.


Limited time offer: SeaEagle.com is offering a 180 day trial & free shipping on all their inflatables.


The Sea Eagle 330 is designed to hold up to two adults, which is why its our best inflatable tandem kayak pick in 2018. Their accompanying gear of up to 500 pounds of total weight. It’s made out of 33 mm Polykrylar hull I-beam construction with high frequency welded seams.


This kayak is safe for fishing, flatwater recreational use, and class 3 whitewater rafting. Equipped with inflatable spray skirts and two tandem seats, a foot pump, and an included carry bag for easy storage. This kayak in particular measures 134 inches long and 34 inches wide. Weighing only 26 pounds, it can easily be carried out to water by one person inflation and assembly takes only approximately six minutes.


It comes with three chambers, in the port, starboard, and the floor and has three air valves and a deluxe one-way; you won’t have to worry about any air accidentally leaking out of a Sea Eagle kayak.


The Stearns Spree has a patented three-chamber air system that provides extra safety; the two main chambers are fully enclosed so that they provide a rigid body when the kayak is inflated. The spray deck aids in keeping the paddler dry over an extended time and can be pulled back for convenience when it’s not in use.


It’s easy to inflate within minutes and just as easy to deflate in a lesser amount of time. This kayak features a mesh zippered pocket that’s great for storing the needed gear, any valuables, and things of that sort. Padding and elastic cord with D-rings are supplied in order to tie gear down while out kayaking. The size of this kayak is 11’7″ by 35″ and weighs 31 pounds while being able to hold up to two people.


This Coleman inflatable kayak is a single person boat with a grab and go backpack storage unit while being made out of 1000D Polyester bottom laminated with 24-gauge PVC. This kayak is equipped with a double lock and mini double lock valves which prevent accidental air loss and keep the inflation.


There’s a large storage area with multiple D-rings and bungee lacing. It can hold up to 250 pounds in weight and measures 10 feet by 3 feet, just unpack from it’s backpack and inflate and you’re ready to go. Comes equipped with a spray skirt that provides protection and tracking fins that make the kayak easier to steer. It’s guaranteed not to leak and comes in the color of orange.


If you find a cheap inflatable kayak on a sale, just get it. I have one. They are great for backup and kids that are just starting. Most inflatables are made out of durable PVC material, so don’t worry too much about whether the material is strong enough (enjoy the savings!).


There are a few $100 inflatable in the market today, but you might as well go with the one that has the most mileage and is well tested in the waters, like the Intex K1 and K2.


Both the Intex Challenger K1 and K2 are regularly topping the best seller list of any inflatable out there. What makes them so popular? Price.


They run anywhere from $60 to $100 depending on the sale or deals going on. hey are also a good choice to start your kids on if you just want to get them used to paddling without spending a too much on a fleeting interest.


Our daughter was an avid kayaker and loved taking any opportunity to take her inflatable to the water. Now, she switched to stand-up paddle boards as her favorite paddling sport (an inflatable SUP of course). So long story short, if you are shopping for your kids, then maybe getting a cheap inflatable kayak is a better choice for now.


Hobie Inflatables are one of the most well known brands in the world, with the Mirage line being one of the best product lines they have.


What makes them so unique is their patented paddle drive system that allows you to paddle the kayak through the water with your feet instead of your arms. This is especially useful for fishing when you want to move slowly while having your line in the water.


This Hobie inflatable kayak was created specifically for kayakers who my be shy about spare acreage but seek the enjoyment of angling, fishing, and or sailing. For those who like to sail, this kayak comes with an optional sail kit.


This kayak in particular is great for a one person paddler with enough durability to hold up to 325 pounds of weight while only weighing 48 pounds itself when fitted and 66 pounds when fully rigged. Made out of 1000 Denier PVC, it fits in a storage bag that’s 30″ by 25″ by 12


1256079  site called Taste. It was my second attempt at making bread (the first was a year ago and I don’t want to talk about it!) and it turned out pretty damned well! Delicious toasted and topped with cheddar.


Split dough into two, shape into balls and place each in a bowl covered with a damp towel. Leave for an hour.


Knead risen dough until it reduces to its original size. Shape into a ball, split into smaller balls or place in loaf tin (depending on kind of loaf or rolls you want). Set aside for another 25 mins.


Sorry I did not tell you that it was sweet! It does make for a wonderful breakfast treat. But your loaf looks marvelous and I am going to try it. Mike and I like a nice bread to have with some cheese while we are tasting our first bottle of wine of the evening. I have been purchasing a rosemary bread from the Farmers Market that a gal makes fresh every week. Like you, I have not made bread for some time now, except for pizza dough. So next week, I am going to give yours a shot. Do the pumpkin seeds need to be toasted before putting them into the bread?


Everyone has his own passion. Although D’s passion seems high in adrenaline, yours is high in taste and creativity. And it’s how I like it too.


I’m picturing Wanaka under winter conditions – I was there last February at the end of their summer. Glorious place – I’m beginning to think of a return visit. In January. 🙂


that looks excellent – I am pleased that you have made some bread to be proud of – you wont look back – homebaked bread smells and tastes so good and Scottish weather is perfect weather for baking it!


Deb – Ohhh, rosemary bread! More ideas. Maybe you are my muse! As for the seeds, I didn’t toast them. Quite like them chewy. Suspect they’ll be tastier toasted though.


I’ve not been much of a bread maker myself but this recipe has me so intrigued that I’m probably going to try making it. I just have one, very American, question: for the dry measure, should I be weighing out the grams of flour? I really don’t know what 350 grams is in cups. I know, we really should be on the metric system! Thanks!


Christine – Yes, you need to weigh the flour. Think one cup is equal to 230g though. Check that out! I’m not entirely certain!


This looks great Wendy. I will definitely try this recipe. all I need to get is the pumpkin seeds. I love courgette. The last time I baked with it, I made a cake and didn’t drain the grated courgette and the cake turned out a bit wet!But it tasted good, so it was not such a disaster. 😉


Lucy – My problem is that a) I don’t get excited about cakes and b) although I love bread, I don’t like to eat a lot of it. Therefore, I don’t bake often. Plus, I love the freedom of cooking (ooh, more rosemary, more pepper, what about some coriander, let’s add…). This does not work with baking, it seems.


Wendy, you’re so right. That is precisely what does/doesn’t work for me! Baking is a science; measurements, weights, getting out the scales, realising you don’t have the butter at exactly the right temperature, cursing yourself for not reading the recipe through…I love other people’s efforts all the more because I know how exacting the process is.


Hi! I found your recipe after also searching the net for a savoury courgette bread! Tried it out yesterday. I think my courgettes were a little larger than yours, so I ended up having to add quite a lot of flour during the kneading process, and then I left it to prove for more than two hours for the first prove… But it worked out absolutely brilliantly! Crumby but moist, with a gorgeous crust. I’ve got a glut of courgettes at the moment so I;ll be making this again!

So many terms, but what do they all mean? They are all words and phrases which you might hear in relation to social media, but may not mean much to you. If you aspire to having a successful presence on your social media channels though, you should.


Don’t despair though. Whether you struggle to know the difference between your preferred audience and organic reach, I can help. That is what a glossary is for! Of course listing off every possible term in a blog post has its limitations. For one, there just isn’t enough space and for another, I just might lose you. So why not start with the ABCs!


Administrator – Someone with administrative powers on a social media page. Depending upon their page role, an admin on a Facebook page can publish posts, respond to and delete comments, edit, create ads, view insights, assign page roles, and more. An administrator is an important member of your social media team and their prompt response is key to the success of your page.


Algorithm – The formula that a social media page uses to determine which posts are shown to an audience. Facebook does not publicly disclose its exact algorithms, but they do give hints as to what boosts the potential of your posts being seen; amount of content available, active interaction (comments & shares), time of post, relevance of post to audience, etc. All social media channels use algorithms, so it is best to learn a little about each site you plan to post on to know how their specific algorithms work.


Audience – Your audience is the people who view your social media posts. These would be your followers, but also the people you would like to attract to your page. Ultimately, it is the people you want your message to reach; clients, potential clients, business affiliates, members of your extended community, friends, and family.


Blog – Similar to a news or magazine article, a blog is an informational web page. Blogs come in all range of topics, but typically

Two broker/dealer associations working together have filed with the NASD an independent slate of four candidates for the NASD Board of Governors. The NASD in September announced its own slate of 12 nominees for upcoming openings on the 30-person NASD board.On Nov. 9, Alan Davidson, owner of Zeus Securities in Jericho, N.Y., and president of the 120-member Independent Broker Dealer Association (IBDA),


Two broker/dealer associations working together have filed with the NASD an independent slate of four candidates for the NASD Board of Governors. The NASD in September announced its own slate of 12 nominees for upcoming openings on the 30-person NASD board.


On Nov. 9, Alan Davidson, owner of Zeus Securities in Jericho, N.Y., and president of the 120-member Independent Broker Dealer Association (IBDA), said IBDA filed with the NASD 309 petitions signed by member firms requesting that the independent candidates be placed on the NASD ballot. Independent candidates must obtain at least 167 signatures from member firms--3% of the NASD's 5,570 members. IBDA worked in conjunction with the 90-member California Association of Independent Broker Dealers to gather the petitions.


At press time, the NASD planned to mail ballots to members Nov. 16. Ballots are due back to the NASD by Dec. 21, 1998, the day of the NASD's annual meeting.


"Our intent is to provide fair and appropriate representation for the NASD membership, 90% of whom are small businesses," Davidson says.

ring-trace is a tool which allows you to create graphs which visualise traceroutes from a number of ring sources. In this news item you can read more about ring-trace.


It’s usually a good idea to limit the number of hosts (using the -n flag) to improve the readability of the generated graph and reduce the runtime. Resolving all nodes usually is a bad idea, since it takes quite a long time. To make a graph more readable the -a flag can be used, which shows traces grouped by autonomous system and -B to remove all broken hops.


Since ring-trace v1.4 it is possible to use a config file to set your own default values. The file should be named .ringtrace.cfg and should be in your homedirectory. Here’s a sample of a config file:


ring-trace can be found on all ring nodes. With pastebin option (-b) it is possible to automatically upload the generated graph to a pastebin. You can also run ring-trace on your local machine if you have a SSH-agent running locally. The code can be downloaded here. Feature requests, bugs and ideas are always welcome, preferably via the Github issue tracker.


ring-curl is a wrapper around the libcurl API and ring-all. It can be used to run HTTP requests on multiple RING nodes. This is particularly useful for debugging CDN problems.


The use of SSH Agent forwarding poses a security risk, in that it forwards all identities in your agent to the remote system. Individuals with root access on the remote system may take over your agent’s socket and use it to login on other systems. ring-ssh mitigates this risk by creating a separate ssh-agent instance containing only your ring-identity, and forwarding this agent to the remote system.

I am planning to open more bottles of whisky from my own collection. For no other reason than there’s no time like the present.


Some bottles I’ve bought I’ve stashed away for a special occasion, but no occasion ever feels special enough. So I’m opening them. And this is one such whisky.


I love distillery exclusives. And even better I love ‘bottle your own’ distillery exclusives. Partly because they’re very special and you really associate the whisky with the trip and the time you had at the distillery. Also partly because they’re usually awesome single casks actually selected by someone who actually knows what they are doing.


Nose: Not the Sherry monster that I expected. Quite a muted nose with golden raisin, orange, fresh tobacco, faded cigar smoke and some subtle earthy notes coming through. Dried mushroom perhaps? Quite a soft and subtle nose.


Water: More complex, darker and more earthy, dried tobacco, more leather, classy orange, caramel digestive biscuits, dark chocolate, some cherry at times too.


Taste: Soft arrival, golden raisin, golden syrup, barley and malt, very fresh for a Glendro, tobacco with some dark chocolate, then more malty with some fresher citrus coming in, orange, some tangy lime and then becoming more spirity with lemon peel and juniper.


Water: Soft but much better balance, orange oil, classy oak, none of that spirity hit, more earthy and dry with leather and chocolate, cherry, a little raspberry maybe, malt, golden raisin and then golden syrup into the finish.


Finish: Medium length. A little spirity and almost gin like with juniper and mint, quite atypical for the Glendro's I've tried so far. Interesting though!


Distilled 02/06/04, bottled 01/07/16 from a Puncheon. A shame about the finish, in that it goes in a very differnt direction and is a little spirity for my taste. Perhaps could have done with another few years in the cask to calm it down. Much better with water, really brings everything together and into a much better balance. Despite that, I probably should have bought a bottle of the 21yo based on price-to-pointage alone.

This production will total to 100,000 per month or 1.2 million sex-reversed fry annually for at least three years rising to 2 million per year by the fifth year.


To sustain this production, it is estimated that 200 females stocked will each produce 200 eggs each per spawn. This will produce 40,000 eggs per spawn translating to 400,000 eggs from ten ponds in a month. Assuming that only 50% will hatch this will bring the total to 200,000 fry. Assuming the worst-case scenario and without aeration, fingerling production will be 50% of the fry hatched. This projects fingerling production at 100,000 per month thus giving a total of 1.2 Million sex reversed fingerlings in one year from 3,000 parents (2,000 females and 1,000 males).<|endoftext|>François Morellet (born 1926 in Cholet, France, where he died in 2016) discovered Concrete Art in 1951 through Max Bill and other artists and went on to become one of its most unorthodox representatives.

1256084  of the lexicon. You appear to still be using the 2nd edition. There is no special category created to accomodate this one passage.


In Sir 35 we have a widow (I wonder whether it is the same widow—the longevity of some of these women is amazing) who similarly cries out to God for justice. Our pericope here may be somewhat dependent upon that passage.


Here too the idea is one of delay. I can't account for the divergence in versification here. I know about the difference in Psalms, but haven't really studied the text of Sirach, but be aware that the verse numbers of the English translation do not match the Greek text. Note what Deissmann states regarding some apparently late developments in the meanings of words.


But now comes the surprise. Among the 550 remaining words we find first a number of proper p 72 names, then a quantity of Semitic and Latin transcriptions or borrowed words, then a series of numerals. Finally, however, if we consult the excellent articles in the Lexicon itself, we shall find in the case of many of the words still remaining that there are quotations given from Josephus, Plutarch, Marcus Aurelius, etc.! Thus, for example, out of 150 words enumerated by Kennedy2 as occurring “only” in the Septungint and the New Testament, 67 are quoted by Thayer himself from pagan authors! The only excuse that I can see for the inaccuracy in these old statistics is that most of the authors quoted for the 67 words are later in date than the Now Testament. But are we to regard words as specifically “New Testament” words because they happen to make their first appearance there? Did Plutarch, for instance, borrow words from the Bible? That is altogether improbable. The Bible and Plutarch borrow from a common source, viz. the vocabulary of late Greek.


Sometimes two meanings of a word seem to clash and you feel it doesn't make sense. Etymological thinking may help to see how the meanings are naturally related. I can't know about this word, but at least I can easily imagine how it may have meant "be patient = wait patiently before something happens" and then taken sense "wait patiently before doing something", hence "delay doing something". God is patient with his plans and we should be, too... Oh, sorry about the theological conclusion!


I was actually quoting from the 3rd edition, but only quoted what I considered to be most relevant. There is no difference between BAGD and BDAG here.


However, now that you have mentioned Sirach 35:19, we do find the word for delay which is βραδύνω and not μακροθυμέω.


NRSV: Indeed, the Lord will not delay, and like a warrior (Heb: Gk and with them) will not be patient


It seems to me that "be patient" here is closely related to "show mercy" or "have compassion with". That is the sense I was womdering about in Luk 18:7. There is a big difference in that Luk 18:7 is a rhetorical question with οὐ μὴ that expects an affirmative answer, whereas in Sirach we have a statement where the οὐ μὴ indicates a reinforced negation.


Can I suggest the problem is not with "μακροθυμεῖ" but with "ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς"? I think that "ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς" here means "over them", so "καὶ μακροθυμεῖ ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς" means "and is he patient over them?", which implies "and is he patient [with those who persecute them]?"


Iver Larsen wrote: If we take the normal sense of μακροθυμέω I suggest the rhetorical question becomes something like: Will not God avenge his chosen ones who cry to him for help day and night and does he not have compassion on them? (I take the οὐ μὴ to govern both coordinated clauses). Then in v. 8: I tell you that he will avenge them quickly (when the right time comes).


I can't really see anything wrong with your proposal (it seems to make excellent contextual sense without positing any unusual meanings), but I would like a better understanding of why so many have seemingly favored the "delay" sense.


I failed to look at REB, so let me quote it here. It is one of the few or maybe the only English one that use the word patient:


"Then will not God give justice to his chosen, to whom he listens patiently while they cry out to him day and night?"


The Greek word is not common in the LXX, but interestingly it occurs a number of times in Sirach, so I thought I would quote how REB dealt with these:


It seems to me that we two senses. One is being patient in the sense of persevering. The other is patient/forbearing in the sense of feeling compassion with and showing mercy to people who are in a difficult situation.


Iver Larsen wrote: I failed to look at REB, so let me quote it here. It is one of the few or maybe the only English one that use the word patient:


David Lim wrote: Can I suggest the problem is not with "μακροθυμεῖ" but with "ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς"? I think that "ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς" here means "over them", so "καὶ μακροθυμεῖ ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς" means "and is he patient over them?", which implies "and is he patient [with those who persecute them]?"


The usage elsewhere is that the people ἐπὶ whom one μακροθυμεῖ are the people who are causing you grief. So if you want it to mean "Is he patient with their oppressors", the αὐτοῖς surely has to refer directly to the oppressors not his chosen people. Some have taken this line, e.g. Grimm in the Grimm-Thayer lexicon, who suggests that they are referred to "negligently" (=without previous contextual reference) with Sirach 35 in mind. Otherwise, the αὐτοῖς must refer to the chosen people.


Iver Larsen wrote: It seems to me that we two senses. One is being patient in the sense of persevering. The other is patient/forbearing in the sense of feeling compassion with and showing mercy to people who are in a difficult situation.


I think your idea of "compassion" is not far off but I suggest that μακροθυμέω is used with particular reference to the clamouring night and day, and a better gloss might be "to be tolerant of them" (i.e. of their requests). Sirach 29.8, which you mentioned, seems similar in that the previous context warns of the difficulties that a lender may experience in securing the repayment of his loan.


"Nevertheless be patient with [be tolerant of? be understanding towards?] the penniless, and do not keep them waiting for your charity." (REB)


Despite the fact that English versions start a new paragraph, I feel the πλήν supports a connection to the previous context.


Thanks for the cite. I think Rogland is persuasive that μακροθυμεῖν does not mean "delay" in Sir 35:19 or Luke 18:7, but it would have been nicer if Iver's possibility of meaning "be compassionate" was also addressed.<|endoftext|>You're a developer.

1256085  company has established formal procedures to assimilate, transform, and exploit knowledge acquired from complaints submitted by customers. Customer requirements, reviews and feedback are used to optimize FTO internal processes. As highlighted in the interviews with the Managing Director: “Claims create an opportunity to learn and change things for the future. The team dealing with claims look for short- and long-term solutions”. In order to better understand the needs of customers and their processes, FTO employees visit customer plants. The suppliers of machines and equipment are invited to share their expertise with FTO employees under the umbrella of “supplier days”. FTO has established close learning relationships with the stakeholders in its local environment e.g. universities and technical secondary schools. Business relations and visits to other companies play an important role in combining inter-firm and intra-firm learning. What is interesting is that the company is open for inter-firm learning through site visits even with some of its competitors. For instance, the FTO Managing Director during his visit to a competitor in Brazil (which is a potential partner for a joint venture), was inspired by the competitor’s production system. As the result, he came up with an idea concerning the reduction of steel losses. The idea requires some changes (mostly technical) within the production system. Thus, the managers and employees of the production department have been tasked with proposing changes in order to reduce FTO steel losses. Another field of applying external knowledge to strengthen intra-organizational learning is sponsoring employees’ studies at universities. When an employee is appraised highly by a supervisor and is willing to study, FTO will fund such education. In this case, an employee usually knows what areas of knowledge he/she lacks in particular and through attending university courses, he/she gets such knowledge. What is of significant importance is that an experienced employee has his/her own reflections concerning work, frequently resulting in some suggestions. Employee consciousness about the possible improvements in the company enables new knowledge acquisition, assimilation, transformation and finally exploitation. Also, employees who study are obliged to perform traineeships in other companies. This obligation results in sharing the experience of the studying employee with the workers of other companies and thus acquiring new knowledge. Then, this new knowledge is assimilated, transformed and exploited by FTO.


What is significant while considering combining inter-firm and intra-firm learning, is that FTO has developed several practices used for processing, assimilating and transforming new external knowledge in order to be able to exploit it properly. Such techniques involve: writing memos after business meetings and visits, disseminating new knowledge among other employees during working meetings, discussing the possibility of new knowledge exploitation in FTO. What is of particular note is that FTO employees expect their supervisors and colleagues to share the knowledge that they acquired during meetings with business partners. Thus, in order to facilitate knowledge processing and knowledge sharing among employees, FTO has established electronic knowledge repositories (Frauenthalpedia, Management Planet).


The interviews with FTO managers reveal interesting examples of positive outcomes of such a cooperation oriented to inter-firm learning. As observed by the Managing Director: “We have had a development program with one of the tools’ suppliers (thread rolls). The effect of the collaboration is a design of new tools not available in supplier’s catalogues. Before the improvements, one set of thread rolling tools was used to produce around 400 pieces – now it is 620 to 780 pieces per one set of tools”. Another case is provided by the Continuous Improvement Leader who states: “We had a one-year-development-program involving three partners: machine supplier, tools’ supplier and ourselves. There were minor changes implemented into the processes (FTO), the set-up of the machine (machine supplier) and the design of the tool (tools’ supplier), which doubled the life-time of tools – from 40,000 to 80,000 pieces per tool”.


As regards intra-firm learning by FTO employees, the company has two approaches: managers/engineers proposals and the employee suggestions system. First of all, there are some employees (e.g. managers or design engineers) whose job descriptions include the responsibility for intra-firm learning aimed at generating improvements and innovations. When approved, the ideas submitted by managers and engineers are usually implemented in the company as independent projects due to the fact that they are usually non-standard changes, they are mid- or long-term ventures and they need allocated resources. Managers/engineers proposals are a part of the white collar employee duties and they are not extra remunerated or awarded. All other members (mainly blue collars) are encouraged to contribute to organizational learning processes through the employee suggestion system. Submissions to the formal employee suggestion system are made on a voluntary basis and they are recognized and rewarded in accordance with compensation regulations included into the company remuneration policy.


The employee suggestion system is closely connected with implementation of the Lean Management philosophy which started in 2010. First of all, the 5S technique was introduced on the shop-floor. Then, the following Lean Management techniques and tools were added: Quality Control, SMED, Total Productive Maintenance, Value Stream Mapping, Gemba Walk and Poka Yoke. Certainly, the employee suggestion system as a prerequisite of the continuous improvement approach was founded and developed. FTO has formal procedures for the conduct of the suggestion process. Employees are invited to submit their suggestions for improvement to the committee responsible for analyzing them and validating the value of submissions. The company has introduced a suggestion form which is completed by a submitting employee. The main areas of interest of the employee suggestion program encompass: occupational health and safety (OH&S), quality, performance, ergonomics and organization of work. Submitted observations should define problems or possible areas for improvement and provide recommended solutions. If an employee submitting a suggestion is not able to analyze root causes of the problem or develop recommendations for remedial actions, the committee appoints an expert who validates the value of the suggestion and elaborates on it in order to provide a solution. When submissions are positively assessed by the committee they are forwarded to the Managing Director for final approval. Depending on available resources and the CEO’s decision, the company either implements remedial actions recommended in suggestions, maintains them in on hold, or refrains from any action. When a suggestion is approved for implementation by the Managing Director the remedial action body is assigned to it. Such a body is responsible for planning and implementing recommended changes. The employee suggestion procedure in FTO is consistent with the theoretical models proposed by Neagoe and Marascu Klein (2010) or Van Dijk and van den Ende (2002).


Employee suggestion processes are staffed and managed by the Continuous Improvement Leader and members of the committee including the representatives of the Departments of Production, Financial Control, Quality, OH&S and Sales. Managers, especially in the Production Department, are expected to provide employees with information on areas of particular importance, which are the guidelines as to where suggestions should be searched for. Shift leaders are also considered to play an important role in encouraging employees to submit suggestions and share knowledge between the teams. Employee contribution to the suggestion system is motivated with financial rewards. Showing a willingness to identify improvements and share knowledge with others are important criteria for recognizing the best workers of the month. Moreover, contribution to company improvement and innovation is an official requirement to be promoted to level 3 in the 4-grade hierarchy of blue collar positions. Transparency is an important characteristic of the FTO employee suggestion system. The company officially informs about submitted suggestions, contributors and the status of issue resolutions. The management shows a high level of concern about filling the gap between the number of submissions and resolved issues.


To encourage employees to come up with ideas for improvements, FTO has introduced a solution called ‘Trust Curve’. The idea of ‘Trust Curve’ is measuring the number of ideas proposed within the employee suggestion system each month and comparing it with the number of improvements introduced out of these suggestions. What is important is that FTO management pays a lot of attention to keeping the gap between these two numbers as small as possible in order to show employees that the company appreciates their ideas, which leads to an increase in employee trust towards the company and managers, and employee commitment.


The first, and a very prominent, manifestation of using external knowledge for intra-organizational learning in Frauenthal Automotive Toruń is the company suggestion system. The idea of the employee suggestion system was recognized and imported from an external business partner by the Production Manager. Similarly, the reorganization and upgrade of the employee suggestion procedures were catalyzed by experiential knowledge acquired from an external company by the Continuous Improvement Leader.


As regards the possibility to apply external knowledge, due to the firm absorptive capacity in the processes of employee suggestions and managers/engineers proposals implementation, it varies depending on the phases of the processes of learning lessons (cf. Table 3).


Table 3. The influence of applying external knowledge on learning lessons through employee suggestions


Generation of employee suggestions may be triggered by acquiring external knowledge by employees who confront it with the situation in the company. Identification of the gap may be a direct force motivating employees to submit an observation or a suggestion. An interesting example is the heating of steel rods before processing them in a hardening machine. The idea was observed by one of company engineers in other metal-processing companies and adapted to the FTO technological process. As highlighted by the respondents, the influence of external knowledge on the company intra-organizational processes is much more observable in the case of proposals submitted by white collars (managers and engineers), who usually have more opportunities to cooperate with external partners. During the interview, the Managing Director emphasized the paramount importance of such inspirations: “Sometimes it is enough to have one inspiring discussion for the idea to be born. As soon as we see benefits from implementing the idea we consistently aim

As China prepares to celebrate its emergence as a global power at next year's Olympic Games, a rash of recent American and international opinion polls suggest that the Asian giant faces an uphill battle to convince the world it is worthy of its new status.


Beijing's task is made harder, say Chinese and foreign analysts, because the ruling Communist Party has so far failed to learn the new ropes of international public diplomacy.


Chinese officials are accustomed to traditional links with their diplomatic counterparts abroad. They have little experience coping with the single-issue advocacy groups that have sprung from civil society in the West to shape the international agenda and influence public opinion on questions ranging from climate change to Darfur.


"It is a great problem," says Shi Yinhong, a prominent foreign-affairs expert at Beijing's Renmin University. "China has no experience with this. We are weak at dealing with diverse nongovernmental entities. The government machine is not capable of dealing with such groups."


Nor has it proved very successful in dealing with the sort of novel challenge that this summer's food and toy safety scandals have posed to China's international image, according to the polls.


An NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey in July found that 65 percent of Americans had very little or no confidence in Chinese food products. Zogby International reported last month that 72 percent of Americans did not believe Chinese claims that the US

Agreed with the logotype. I think it was one of the original font types suggested when we got our own design, but I never really cared for it then either. – MBraedley Sep 2 at 20:19


The first thing I noticed is how bright the background is now without the textured background we used to have that now only applies to the header/footer. Arqade was one of the few sites I didn't have to have a custom dark theme for as it was dark enough not to hurt my eyes with continued use. Can we get a darker background for the left and right sides, or even just have the background match the header and footer?


As I mentioned in Mad Scientist's answer, because of our work to standardize the LESS we're using for the network, the left nav text needs to be legible and it must be black. As such, dark theming isn't possible because it makes it impossible to see the black text. – Catija♦ Sep 5 at 20:37


@Catija i guess ill just have to write a custom extension to make the dark theme. though if everything is supposed to be standardized, it seems like it should be incredibly easy to also make a dark theme (with light text) that is toggle-able. as it stands now, i cant use any site i dont have a dark theme for on the network for more than about 5 minutes without my eyes hurting from how bright they are. – Dragonrage Sep 5 at 20:44


People have been requesting a dark theme for either specific sites or the network for years. Considering we have at least 60 sites with custom designs, that would be a huge amount of work for a very small design team! :) Unfortunately, I don't think we can meet that request any time soon. – Catija♦ Sep 5 at 20:48

The mobile version is definitely in progress and many of these things are already being addressed. That said, this isn't specific to Arqade, so should be posted on the MSE post rather than here. :) – Catija♦ Sep 9 at 1:12


The largest point of feedback for me is that watched tags are no longer highlighted in blue, and ignored tags are not greyed out. This makes it more strenuous for me to determine which questions I can potentially answer.


Also, the mothership should not animate unless you hover over it. It's immediately distracting when it shoots its lasers, and there's no reason it should be ripping my attention away from answering questions.


There is a link to badges in the top bar (very top of the achievements dropdown). At this point, there's no plan to add badges to the sidebar. ~Catija


The Badges button seems to have evaporated. I am not sure if this is because people decided it wasn't useful or used often or what, but I miss it, because I used it reasonably often in moderation things and to remind myself of stuff. Can we have it back somewhere? Like there doesn't appear to be anyplace to see a list of all the badges you can get, which feels off to me somehow. No fun earning a thing if you can't like...see how to work for it.


If it's about this Badges list, then it has been moved (and unified) to the top of Achievements pop-up on the top bar, alongside with the Privileges list – antimo Aug 31 at 20:04


You can, there's just a delay. I should clarify that in the question. I didn't know about it when I wrote this up. – Catija♦ Sep 2 at 3:58<|endoftext|>DBC2 worked with the Motoractive team to produce another engaging Video Media Release with motoring spokesperson Bruce Morrison, about the industry uniting to raise money for sick children.

It was first adopted by US Special Forces and airborne troops in 1962 before it was issued to Army and Marine units serving in Vietnam. Its use spread throughout the following decades and a number of variants including submachine and carbine versions were also fielded. As a result it is now amongst the three most used combat cartridges in the world while over 10 million M16s and variants have been produced making it one of the most successful American handheld weapons in history .But despite its undeniable success the M16 is not without its detractors. Indeed, the "black rifle”, as it is known, is one of the most controversial rifles ever introduced with a long history of design defects, ruggedness issues, cleaning difficulties and reliability problems leading to endless technical refinements. This volume provides a technical history of the M16 and the struggle to perfect it together with an assessment of its impact on the battlefield drawing on over a decade's combat experience with the rifle.


Gordon L Rottman entered the US Army in 1967, volunteered for Special Forces and completed training as a weapons specialist. He served in the 5th Special Forces Group in Vietnam in 1969-70 and subsequently in airborne infantry, long-range patrol and intelligence assignments until retiring after 26 years.

The actor said he had no political ambition, but was often dragged into political debates despite stressing that he was "neither an influential political leader nor a social activist."


"My life is in the hands of God. I'm not sure what he has in store for me. But I'll always perform the duty that he bestows on me. So, don't feel disappointed if I don't enter politics," he told fans at a gathering here.


But if he did join politics, he would ensure that there would be no place for those seeking material gain.


In 1996, the 66-year-old actor had supported the DMK-TMC alliance in Tamil Nadu, which swept the polls that year. But he has not been involved in any political activity since then, he said.


"(But) my name has been dragged into politics for the past two decades. I am pushed to clarify during every election that I'm not affiliated to any political party," he said.


"I was supposed to meet you all two months ago but had to postpone it to accommodate more fans. So, I cancelled the previous meet-and-greet session. Later, I was supposed to go to Sri Lanka for an event. Again I had to cancel it for various reasons. A lot of media reports followed saying, 'Rajinikanth doesn't stick to his decision. He is apprehensive' and so on."


"If you step into the water and later realise that there are crocodiles in it, you shouldn't brave them and refuse to step out of the water. Such blind courage will take you nowhere," he said.


He shrugged off allegations that he did "certain stunts" before a film's release to ensure its success at the box office.


"With the blessings of my fans and Tamils intact, I don't need to do that. My fans are not fools to be deceived by this. A film will succeed only if it is good. Even if you do somersaults, bad content will flunk," he said.


"Please take care of your families and children. Give up drinking and smoking. Even wealthy people in business have lost their empires because of alcohol addiction, which not only spoils one's physical health but mental well-being, too.


It will diminish your decision-making skills and your crucial decisions in life will eventually go wrong," he warned.<|endoftext|>I wrote in my last blog post about training leading up to MMTR and how I was feeling before the race, so this is strictly about MMTR weekend..


Super early Friday morning the day before the race, Jeff dropped me off at the airport. This was only my second time flying without Jeff in my entire life, it was the first race I've had to fly to, the first race I'd ever run without a crew or familiar face on the course, and I was the only runner from MA who was going to be there. I knew it was going to be quite the adventure but I was excited about it. Both of my flights out went smoothly, picked up my rental car at the Charlottesville airport with no problems, and then had the rest of the day to get food, drive to my hotel in Raphine, VA about an hour from Charlottesville, pick up my packet, then just relax. The drive to Raphine was beautiful. It reminded me so much of Vermont with the mountains and fall foliage. It was warmer than I would've liked, but I knew it was suppose to cool down overnight with a potential for rain on race day. Packet pick-up didn't start until 4:30pm, so I had some time to hangout at the hotel beforehand. Since MMTR is a point-to-point, all of the pre-race and post-race activities happened at the finish line in Camp Blue Ridge, Montebello, VA. The drive from the hotel over to the finish line was only about 20 minutes, but it felt much longer. Windy, narrow, steep mountain roads. No cell service. My stomach sank deeper the more I drove through the mountains. It made me wish that Jeff was there to keep me distracted. The finish area was about a 1/2 mile from where you had to park, great way to loosen up the legs before race morning. I grabbed my packet and immediately headed back to the hotel, skipping the 7:30pm pre-race briefing. I just wanted to relax as much as possible before the 3am wake-up call the next morning. Before every race, I get a much needed pep-talk from my coach. He always knows exactly what to say, even if it's stuff I already know, sometimes I need to hear it all again. He mentioned that I didn't sound as excited as I should be, and it wasn't lack of excitement, I was just really focused, probably more so than I've been before any other race. I knew what needed to be done and I was feeling anxious to get started. I felt better after the phone call, but then when I was trying to find the athlete tracking information I stumbled upon a "seeded entry list". I was about 50th female on that list. I have no idea what they base those numbers on or what it even really means, but it did not help with the nerves. I just tried to stay calm and focused, and get as much rest as possible.
