Performance plus
Operating in remote locations along the B.C. Coast, logger Doug Sladey requires rock-solid reliable equipment—and he is getting that reliability, and performance, from a fleet of Hitachi purpose-built Foresters.
Doug Sladey, President of B.C. logging operation Sladey Timber Ltd., is motivated.
"I'm a third-generation logger, with 40 years in the industry," says Sladey. "Both my sons have told me they want to work in the family business. So I've got more reasons than ever to keep our own company healthy as well as participate in the various organizations dedicated to keeping the industry strong."
And part of keeping the industry strong is having a long term vision. "When you think about it, we're simply farming the trees—we just have a long growing season. The trees we are harvesting are on an 80-year rotation."
The Sladey operation is based in Madeira Park, in the middle of British Columbia's "Sunshine Coast," a remarkable area of fjords, islands, inlets, and bays facing the Pacific Ocean, just north of Vancouver.
The equipment that is used on each Sladey Timber job is barged to each site, and a road is pioneered from the water's edge to the targeted timber stands.
Diesel-powered boats ferry the crew to work each day, escorted by the occasional porpoise, whale, or eagle.
"Nearly all our jobs are remote and inaccessible by inland roads," says Sladey. "Our crew is like family because we work, socialize, and enjoy each other's company. We're just good old local boys. Most have gone to school together and are friends for life. Our foreman has been with us for 38 years. We had our first retiree last year.
"Our local dedicated team is comprised of a mixture of age groups ranging from 25 to 65 years old. Not only are all of them versatile operators, they're pretty good mechanics. They are responsible for changing oil, servicing the machine they're operating, and changing their own hydraulic hoses if one should blow."
Given the remoteness, Sladey's requirements from a manufacturer for machine performance and reliability are at the top of the scale.
"Just imagine asking your dealer to send his mechanic and service truck to a harbor hours away from the branch so he can be loaded on a barge, pulled slowly to our landing with a tug, and, once on land, hopefully be able to maneuver on our temporary road—while making darn sure he packed all of the right parts. Well, first we'd be down for days, and second, it would cost a fortune."
So it's no surprise the company only owns brands proven to be equal to the job. They literally can't afford not to.
"Excluding pickups, we have one or two each of a select few pieces of equipment on every cut block. A couple of Kenworths, a feller-buncher, an articulated truck for road building, and a fleet of Hitachi purpose-built Foresters."
One Forester ZX350RB builds the roads, and then as the harvest nears completion, removes most of them as specified by the project plan. A ZX350F is equipped with a Waratah 624 processing head for classifying and cutting the logs to mill specs.
Their newest Forester ZX370F-3, just delivered this season, features single-grouser tracks and next-size larger undercarriage and swing-control motors. These features are a must for aggressive shovel logging, which is the West Coast's answer to lower-cost movement of logs out of the forest rather than yarding or helicoptering.
Appropriate (and legal) for moving logs on slopes up to 40 per cent grades, a hoe-chucking operation means Sladey's Forester has to travel up grade, travelling over wet logs, mud, and rocks to where the tree was felled. It then picks the log up and rotates it in the air from front to back, again and again—typically up to four times—and then stacks it along the haul road.
Another Forester cuts the logs to the correct length. The timber is loaded on a truck and taken to the water's edge, where it is rolled in with a splash to form floating rafts. There is no more demanding effort put on a hydraulic excavator-type machine than shovel logging.
"We harped and harped for years to all the manufacturers for a machine designed by a logger, built for a logger, and equipped to tackle the demands shovel logging puts on it," says Sladey. "My feeling is that with the newest Hitachi Forester, we're finally—or at least almost—there. We've got the extra windows for better visibility and the dual swing motors for power. We've got a larger undercarriage so there's real power to the tracks and it doesn't bog down. The booms are purpose-built and tough. The screening on the engine is really good. It filters out all the needles, moss, and dust so there's less risk of fire or overheating. Windows in the cab actually open—which is big because they used to be sealed.
"Hitachi was already making a very reliable machine," adds Sladey. "Twenty-thousand hours on one is nothing. And, we've been sold on the Isuzu engine for years. It's reliable and gets better fuel economy for the production than any logging machine we have experienced."
And when it comes to support, Sladey is pleased there, too. "Ralph Currie, our sales representative for the Hitachi dealer, Wajax Equipment, has been great. I call him a personal friend because of the classy way he treats us. No hard sell—he simply makes sure we have the product we need when we need it, the options we require, and a competitive price. After the sale, the dealership gets us parts in a timely manner, and follows up to make sure our Hitachi machines are in good working order.

Helen Freeman, 1932-2007: 'Jane Goodall' of snow leopards
From the moment Helen Freeman saw two snow leopards at Woodland Park Zoo, they captivated her, family members recall.
She would stand near them for hours at a time, observing behaviors that she would become an expert at interpreting.
In 1981, she founded the International Snow Leopard Trust, the largest organization working to preserve the endangered animal in its Central Asian habitat.
Freeman sometimes traveled to Asia alone, balancing her persistence and maternal grace in trying to persuade government officials to protect the endangered species.
After she died of lung disease Thursday, colleagues praised her as "the Jane Goodall of snow leopards." Freeman was 75.
"Helen inspired so many people to help her cause that the Snow Leopard Trust continues to grow stronger and accomplish goals Helen envisioned almost 30 years ago," trust Executive Director Brad Rutherford said.
Born Helen Maniotas, Freeman was the only child of Greek immigrants who owned the London Cafe in Everett. After graduating from Washington State University, she met Stanley Freeman through friends in the Coast Guard.
The couple marked their 49th wedding anniversary this year.
"She could bring a smile to your face whenever you were talking to her," Stanley Freeman said of his wife. They have two sons, Doug and Harry.
Freeman became a volunteer docent at Woodland Park Zoo and later enrolled at the University of Washington, where she earned a degree in animal behavior.
Freeman used that training when studying Nicholas and Alexandra, the Zoo's snow leopards, which had been obtained in 1972 from the Soviet Union.
"The more I learned, the more I saw them, the more interesting they were to me," she told the Seattle P-I in 2001.
In the early 1970s, snow leopards didn't breed well in zoos. Freeman helped build a successful breeding program over a decade, and Nicholas and Alexandra had 29 cubs through 2001.
"I think it's important that we preserve diversity," Freeman told the P-I in 1982. "I don't think every animal that we look at should be domesticated. We evolved to share with every other creature on this planet."
Freeman traveled to Asia and Europe and around the U.S., meeting with government officials and conservationists. In 1984, she was named chairwoman of the American Zoo and Aquarium Association's Snow Leopard Species Survival Plan.
Among many awards, Freeman received the Alumni Achievement Award from Washington State University and the Evergreen Award in 1998 from the Fish and Wildlife Service.
But just as important are the memories Doug Freeman has of her spending time listening to his friends.
"She made it part of her day to get to know them and learn things about their life," said her son, a veterinarian. "I have several friends still tell me she helped guide them to become who they are today.
"She was a strong woman determined to succeed, and she always saw the good in people."
Freeman also is survived by five grandchildren, who loved to hang on the handlebars of her motorized scooter, family members said. A celebration of her life is scheduled for Oct. 13 at East Shore Unitarian Church in Bellevue.

Every drive down the N340 in Spain is full of surprises. Appalling drivers, bush fires, and – the fog.
The Fog was a 1980 film by John Carpenter which had a spooky fog that swept in over a coastal town in California and brought lots of mariners ghosts with it. Carpenter also did the brilliant Assault on Precinct 13 (1976).
So here, travelling up the N340, approaching Estepona from the south, in our Landy, was The Fog.
Creeping in from the sea.
We watched it roll in from the sea as we drove up the coast and suddenly..
…. it was enveloping us.
And then suddenly we were clear enough for 'planes to land at Málaga airport.

Chabad Flamingo Bar Mitzvah Levi Vorovich
Thank you so much to the whole Vorovich Family for giving me trust and opportunity to capture those very important moments in their Life !
Before the Bar Mitzvah party we had little bit of time for quick Family photos, so we decided to go to their favourite place Mac Donald house park located in Vaughan, Ontario.
Vorovich family it's a very famous family in Jewish community in Thornhill and not because Rabbi Shlomo Vorovich (The Father of Bar Mitzvah boy) he is Program Director at Chabad Romano Centre in Maple, also Shlomo and his daughter Bassie Vorovitch are amazing photographers.
But it was very easy to work with this family as they were all very creative, fun and easy going people, bar mitzvah Boy Levi definitely should think about side career opportunity as a model.
Right after, we went to the Banquet Hall Centre at Chabad Flamingo and had lots of fun there, as well as you can see.
Mazal Tov !
Special thanks goes to very talented Videographer Genadi Sherman from Miracle Studio.

This is a really good Sloppy Joe recipe. I got it from my friend Angie after she brought it in for a work party and everyone gobbled it up.
- 2 lbs. extra lean hamburger
- 1 large onion (optional; I generally chop some up and serve them separately)
- 1 pint (2 cups) tomato juice
- Salt and pepper to taste (I also use a dab of onion salt, garlic pepper and garlic salt!)
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 6 tablespoons brown sugar
Brown meat and drain off excess fat. Add rest of ingredients and cook for approximately 1 – 1‑1/2 hours. (Time will vary if you are cooking larger quantities.) Have small bowls of grated cheese, sliced pickles, and olives to serve with it.

The key characteristic of an electric drum pump is its capability to give a very smooth and tir...
There are situations where manual pumps are improper for getting liquid out of pails and drums, and in these situations, utilizing an electric drum pump is the perfect solution, and will both slice the timeframe taken and additionally ensure it is simpler for staff. Much like manually powered pumps, there are different forms of design available that offer slightly different functions. Dig up further about in english by going to our pictorial encyclopedia.
The important thing feature of an electrical drum pump is its capability to give a very clean and tireless flow of liquid from the drum. Rather than the flow that originates from a piston pump, having an electrically powered design, the fluid is drawn out of the drum in one single easy flow, meaning that there's less possibility of spilling. Apart from reducing wastage, having less splashing means a lesser risk of spillage.
It's common sense to make use of different electronic drum pumps for each type of water that you'll require to go. This maintains all the liquids at optimum levels of love and prevents gas and water based liquids from damaging each other. It is advisable to completely clean each pump system after use to avoid any blockage, especially in any case where in actuality the pump has been employed for liquids that can congeal such as paint.
Different forms of fluid may respond with the inside surfaces of the pump in different ways, and so as to ensure the long life and maintain the quality of your electric drum pump in the greatest condition, it is very important to utilize only the right kind of pump with each chemicals. You can choose from 3 different components in the pump:
Polypropylene is a high quality plastic that's broadly speaking inert and unreactive. Electronic drum pumps using polypropylene are intended for use with light weight liquids, and can resist corrosion from acids. They're not generally speaking compatible with solvents, as these can break down the chemicals in the plastic and cause the pump to fail.
A stainless pump is advantageous under numerous situations, and won't corrode, even if it's left immersed in water for long periods. Metal can so long as the pump is well managed and retain its power with high weight oil, will stay in exempla

I've turned my Monthly Praise Posts into a link up to encourage you (yes, you) to write up your own post about what God has been doing in your life this month. You can find out more below.
Finally 2016 seems to have slowed down a little bit! June has been a really, really good month but also one that seems to have decided to take the slow train. While it means I can relax a little, it also means that each day at work is seriously dragging… I'm sure you know what I mean! Fortunately, I've had another month of full weekends to look forward to plus good books and cups of tea to get me through the damp weather we've been having. Seriously, I am so glad that God created a huge variety of tea! But before I start getting mushy over cups of hot tea (we had a mini celebration on Instagram), let's get on with nine of my favourite Insta-moments from June.
- A good book can be the best thing in the world! A story that grips you with action, characters, plot twists and even weird Medieval-political storylines is fictional gold dust. I know that The Game of Thrones is not to everyone's taste but I just love the character complexity. No one is good or bad and I want to bang all their heads together to knock some sense into them! They were my faithful companions on my train journeys when I didn't have the energy to work on the blog any longer. Sometimes we all need a chance to escape from the world around us.
- Catherine and Annabel are two of the most important people in my life. (Annabel will also be doing a happy dance when she sees this as it's her third appearance in a Monthly Praise Post in a row.) This photo was taken on one of those, increasingly rare, spontaneous nights when we just decide to crash at one of our houses with no plans. This time I was actually packing to visit my grandparents but the beautiful thing about my besties is that they're happy to just chat and chill while I pack. We had some massive giggles and of course had some boy chat… mostly about how I've realised that I do too much to have a boyfriend and I'm too selfish to give anything up to make room for one. It really is the little, spontaneous times that make a life worth remembering.
- My grandma's desk is becoming one of my favourite places for productive work. I visited them in Suffolk at the start of June and loved every moment of it. Not only was I spoilt with a trip to the most incredible restaurant but they also gave me space to get a load of writing done. Their house has become a true refuge to me. Somewhere I can be productive and relaxed without any of the distractions that get in my way at home. Yet I swear I actually do less work there though I feel more productive. Basically, visiting my grandparents is great for me in pretty much every way!
- My grandma totally shocked me on the Sunday. The top is from Spiral Direct, one of my favourite gothic brands. My super-conservative grandma said she liked my top and then suggested I buy some more from the same brand! My mum and sister have no idea how I get away with so much with my grandparents. I just know that having my family accepting me, including all my quirks, is amazing.
- I love love love fruit and herbal tea. I've even fallen for chocolate tea. Yes, it is a real thing! And I discovered Planet Organic's Rawkin Roons! This bag of goodies may have been a rather expensive buy but it totally made my day! I may have even gone through the whole box of raw macaroons in one day, though I did share them at work. Next step is persuading Pukka or Planet Organic to send me some freebies… anyone have any contacts?
- I had another Sheffield adventure in June. My amazing friends Esther and Dave are now officially married! It was a beautiful ceremony, fantastic reception and being surrounded by friendly northerners is always reinvigorating. But what it did make me realise that I'm a rural girl at heart. I cannot wait for the move to Sheffield in September but I am definitely going to need to find a rural refuge while I'm up there. Any suggestions gratefully received!
- My final trip of June was to Brighton to visit the lovely Louisa and Alistair. I've visited Brighton before but only on a gloomy January day so it was gorgeous to visit it on a summer's weekend. We explored Brighton's charity shops and had a pub lunch on the coast. The sunshine was fantastic even if there was a little dipping and diving between showers.
- My stitches are out! Okay, so having my mole taken out was not a highlight of June but I am glad I did it. Whether or not it comes back cancerous, I am grateful to have the concern of a large mole and skin cancer taken away from me. But I even more grateful to have the horribly itchy stitches out!
- I found this verse while flicking through a notebook my godmother gave me for journalling. I have been dreaming and planning so much that I've becoming totally wrapped up in what I want for the future. This verse was perfectly timed and a real reminder that no matter how much I want to live in California or run a digital ministry, it is all in God's timing and planning.
God has been pretty epic this month. His blessings come in so many different forms and I have been made so aware of that throughout June!
Monthly Praise Post Link Up
Now my favourite bit! For those of who you love to see what God's been doing in our lives, it's your turn to join in! Excited? I am! All you have to do is write up your own praise post and link it up at the bottom of the page (click on An InLinkz Link-up and follow the steps).
However, if you could follow these pointers, that would be great:
- Concentrate on the good things that have happened over the last month. That could be the obvious or even how God has turned a rubbish situation into a good one (like forcing me to take time to chill via my wrists).
- Read the link that appears before yours. Maybe even leave a comment on the page so they know you've read it. Let's build a community of Christian girls and guys celebrating with and supporting each other.
- Use the button below to let everyone know about the Monthly Praise Posts. Let's see people praising God for the everyday stuff all over the web! (I even included HTML code for your web design ninjas. Or you can copy and paste the button)

At times, when he's talking about iLL Manors, the film that he has written and directed, Ben Drew, aka multiplatinum-selling rapper and singer Plan B, is almost spitting. Not spitting as in the street parlance for rapping, but literally spitting; such is his impassioned, forceful, expletive-peppered delivery as he talks about society's failure to tackle and nurture its disadvantaged youth. "This film is me talking about this shit that I'm also talking about in my music and as a human being. Stuff I think we need to address; we need to understand why these fucked-up things happen, so that we can educate ourselves going forward and try to prevent them from happening again, you know what I'm saying?
"A lot of people outside this environment don't believe it exists," he continues. "So in the film, rather than glamorise it, I'm trying to say to people this is the true, dark reality. This is what happens. It's not cool. No drug dealer really has the last laugh."
Dark reality is, if anything, an understatement. The film is an unapologetic and at times unnerving and uncomfortable drama, a depiction of life in the most unloved and unforgiving streets of east London, seen through the interwoven lives of its dysfunctional characters, linked and part-narrated by six new Plan B tracks. Starring established British actors such as Riz Ahmed (aka rapper Riz MC) and Natalie Press alongside unknowns such as Keith Coggins (Drew's godfather in real life) and Ryan De La Cruz, it shows the spirals of hopelessness and violence that vulnerable individuals can easily be sucked in to.
ILL Manors is not a manifesto or a direct polemic, but, like many of the best protest artforms, concentrates on capturing a mood – of desolation and anxiety. Rather than judging or preaching, it's more concerned with encouraging debate about the root of the problems it presents and demonstrating how they can have a domino effect on people's lives. It's also a surprisingly accomplished piece of work for a directorial debut and Drew, you could argue, is becoming a much-needed spokesman for an alienated sector of our society that feels it doesn't have a voice.

"I just wanted to say, 'They're not all scum,'" says Drew of his characters. "They act the way they do because of the shit that happened to them that wasn't their fault. It's not your fault if your parents abandon you and put you in a home. It's not your fault, but there comes a time when you have to take responsibility for your actions. But for a lot of them, there's no one there saying, 'All that shit that happened to you in the past is fucked up, man, and I feel really sorry for you, but you're just repeating that bad and negative energy through what you're doing and you can't keep blaming the past for the way you're acting now.'"
ILL Manors the film follows iLL Manors the single and will itself be followed by an accompanying album of the same name. Filming on the feature had almost finished last summer when the London riots erupted and the single was Drew's reaction to the riots. The Guardian called it "the first great mainstream protest song in years"; shadow health minister Jamie Reed compared it to a Marvin Gaye classic and tweeted that it "really does remind of What's Going On".
It polarised opinion, though, and after what he saw as ill-founded criticisms of lyrics such as: "There's no such thing as broken Britain/ We're just bloody broke in Britain/ What needs fixing is the system/ Not shop windows down in Brixton/ Riots on the television/ You can't put us all in prison!", Drew said in a statement: "If you're born into a family that's had enough money to educate you properly, you're privileged. You're not better than anyone else, you're just lucky. Certain sectors of middle England, not all of them, but the ignorant ones, need to wake up and realise that and stop ridiculing the poor and the less fortunate."
To some, 28-year-old Drew may seem an unlikely polymath, but there's always been a more complex character beneath the surface sheen of his soulful smash The Defamation of Strickland Banks. His debut, Who Needs Actions When You Got Words, was a grittier rap album that tackled similar issues to iLL Manors. He's also acted in the Noel Clarke films Adulthood and 22.214.171.124., and alongside Michael Caine in Daniel Brown's Harry Brown. More recently, he was chosen to play George Carter alongside Ray Winstone in the remake of The Sweeney.
While growing up, although music was his first love, film came a close second. "I loved films, but all we wanted to watch were horror movies like Poltergeist and Nightmare on Elm Street," he says. "As I got older, I got really bored of Hollywood. Then one day, someone told me to watch La Haine [Mathieu Kassovitz's 1995 urban French modern classic] because it was on TV. I thought, 'I don't know if I can do this, it's black and white and has subtitles', but they said, 'No, you've got to watch it', so I did and loved it. It opened my eyes to a whole new world of cinema that was so much edgier than the Hollywood movies I grew up with."

ILL Manors is not autobiographical, but is set in Forest Gate, where Drew grew up, one and a half miles east of the Olympic Park, and based on things that happened to him or his friends. With his father absent from the age of five months, the disruptive Drew was kicked out of school aged 16 and sent to a pupil referral unit called the Tunmarsh Centre in Plaistow.
Drew credits it and early counselling with turning his life around, as it was the first time anyone encouraged him creatively and asked him to question why he was so angry. "I've had counselling since year eight. They called it sports counselling in my school, because otherwise kids would say, 'I ain't mad, I ain't going to see a therapist!' So they called it sports counselling so they could say, 'Oh, it's just because you're aggressive during sports'. Now I'm older I can see that name was bollocks; it was just counselling, but it was great, I loved it. It did me a world of good." He is currently back at his old unit, making a documentary, and was saddened to see the teacher who had helped him change his life is now gone.
"There used to be a big old music room there and an amazing music teacher called Cliff Earlye . He helped me massively, so when I went back I was looking forward to seeing him. Unfortunately, he had died and they couldn't find anyone to replace him; someone with the patience and the motivation to engage with the kids like he did. All the music equipment has gone as well, because it was all his, so the old music room is just an office now. I was so depressed when I saw it."
Rather than whisk through with a film crew, Drew made a conscious decision to find the time to sit down and talk to the kids about themselves. "I really want to show the kids my film, but some of them are 13 years old so I can't – they're too young, although half of me is thinking, 'You know what, they've been exposed to so much more shit than that.' I think they could learn so much from the film and I really want them to see it and talk about it with them."
This desire to change what he sees as relentless negative portrayals of the young and disenfranchised is a theme Drew returns to again and again. It was also the core message of his impassioned speech at the Observer's TEDx event in March and he is still working on the plans he outlined in his speech to create an "umbrella organisation" that will help what he calls "vigilante social workers". He's also involved with the 1Xtra Academy that, following Radio 1's Hackney weekend, aims to offer 10,000 teenagers masterclasses in everything from music to acting, fashion to radio, with fellow ambassadors such as Leona Lewis, Riz Ahmed and EastEnders stars.
When I ask him who the film is for, he says without a pause: "The kids that are living that life. These kids are angry and fucked up and I am angry and fucked up. But I'm starting to calm down and I'm starting to see the bigger picture. I want to give them some knowledge and wisdom. You might say, 'Get over yourself Plan B!' Whatever, cool. I know that for me to want to teach another human being is not coming from a negative place. As human beings, we're compelled to teach and to learn, that's part of the beauty of being human. What the fuck is the point of us being here if we're not going to learn nothing or pass nothing on?"

The Perfect Fit
It took me a long time to find the right producer to make this collection.
Many a cold winter day was spent wandering a lonely industrial estate, deciphering google maps, clutching precious drawings and toiles. In the end, I actually came back to a connection I had made some years previously with a small atelier based in Greenwich, London.
Led by Director Andrey, who also runs his own bridal wear label, they are a small team of passionate professionals with integrity, patience and the most incredible quality of skill. They worked with me over a long period of time to get this collection right. Advising on quality of finish, cut and fit while always remaining so open and positive, a real pleasure to work with. Together we refined the collection so that the quality of garment and quality of fit could be the best possible.
If you'd be interested in having a bespoke garment made to fit you perfectly, just get in touch here.

World's first roast-grind-brew coffee machine
Our idea
Our roast-grind-brew coffee machine enables you to roast green beans on their own and therefore enables farmers to directly sell their green, raw coffee beans to you. Farmers become faces and you become a coffee changer.
Help us show the world that it is time to change the way coffee is perceived, traded and enjoyed. With the world's first roast-grind-brew coffee machine we can disrupt the value chain, empower farmers and bring you the fairest and freshest coffee experience right into your own home.
Who believes in us
Stretch Goals
Our story
We have worked over 2 years to make our vision become reality by developing, enhancing and testing our roast-grind-brew coffee machine.
Finally we're all set for the final step: We want to take our machine from 135 working prototypes to serial production. We need your pre-orders to finance and start tooling.
Let's start with a little video showing you how our prototype works:
And for all the tech and coffee geeks amongst you, let's have a closer look at the technical details of the machine. To spice the following list up a little bit, we're also revealing why we decided to delay the launch by a couple of days:
Technical data sheet &
facts for the serial production
The next steps
That's how we are going to proceed from now on:
The design
We have crowd-sourced brilliant designs with dedicated designers from all over the world and were overwhelmed by their submissions. As it is prohibited to show photorealistic renderings that could be mistaken for finished products, we hope that our attached sketches and the videos give you a good idea how the machine is going to look.
The following views will give you an overview of how the technical components will be arranged within your machine.
Risks and challenges
There will always be risks and challenges when starting to get a serial production ready. It is a challenge we feel comfortable accepting for many reasons. The most comforting reason for us is that we have created 135 prototypes before including tooling. We also believe that our core technology is full proof and we have great confidence in it.
Things you might be concerned about:
Design & Engineering:
➢ Design: Our crowd design challenge has already delivered a magnificent design. So we are safe on that part.
➢ Usability: We strongly focus on simplicity, that means an easily understandable user interface and high user friendliness. Having used the prototype for over 18 months now, we've collected the experience to build a machine that's easy to use for everyone.
➢ Functionality: We are down to our 5th generation of prototypes. We've been through an intensive trial and error phase and, thanks to that, have identified all remotely possible flaws to this machine. Now we are ready to enter the market with a stable and well-functioning machine.
➢ Serial production: 135 working prototypes have been built already and our solid core technology has passed the reality check. We have done the whole tooling, production line set-up and engineering process before. We are excited to take our baby to the next level.
➢ Coffee quality: By now, way more than 15,000 of you have tried our coffee. We were overwhelmed by your positive feedback and have done everything to ensure recurring quality for our machine.
Supply Chain & Logistics:
➢ Machine parts: We have done more than 18 months of closed beta testing on all crucial parts. We identified the critical parts of our machine and either replaced or made sure to fix them.
➢ Suppliers: We are talking to exclusive and innovative supplier partners for coffee, smoke and water filters to ensure best service quality and a high durability of all machine parts.
➢ Manufacturing partner: Signed. Timeline set. Ready to roll.

Botox-Dysport Houston
Injectable Treatments for a Younger Appearance
Dysport® and BOTOX® Cosmetic are injectable treatments available at our Houston, Texas practice. They are both variations of botulinum toxin A, commonly used to treat facial wrinkles. They are temporary solutions and have many similarities (and a few differences). The effect on muscle weakness is seen approximately two to four days following injection, with maximal weakness at seven to 10 days. The effect is usually reversed in four months. However, if an area is treated repeatedly, the effect seems to be prolonged after each time. To learn more about Dysport® and BOTOX® Cosmetic, contact the Houston practice of Dr. Azita Madjidi, serving Sugar Land, Pasadena and patients from around the world.
Getting Started with Dysport® and BOTOX® Cosmetic
During consultation, Houston plastic surgeon Dr. Azita Madjidi listens to your concerns and analyzes your face, both at rest and during expression. Having an extensive training in craniofacial surgery, and a Masters degree in anatomy, Dr. Madjidi will precisely identify the muscles responsible for the areas of your concern. Those specific muscles will be injected with a very fine needle. She will discuss with you the differences between BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport®, both of which are FDA approved to treat frown lines. However, they cannot be used simultaneously.
Each patient reacts differently to injections. Therefore, if this is your first time, Dr. Madjidi will see you again two weeks after the injection in order to precisely evaluate how much BOTOX® Cosmeticor Dysport® is necessary for your individual need. If the desired effect is obtained, this will be your required dose. If the result is less than expected and touch up is needed, it will be done at that time.
In order to improve facial wrinkles, BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport® may be used in conjunction with dermal fillers or fat injection to obtain longer-lasting results. BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport® will be injected at least two weeks prior to the filler or fat injection treatment. They are a great adjunct to eyelid surgery, browlift, or facelift to improve the overall results around the eyes.
BOTOX® Cosmetic has many off-label applications in the face. The most common application is in the forehead and crow's feet. The transverse lines and the frown lines are often treated with either BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport®. However, they cannot be mixed together and units are not comparable.
The position and the shape of the eyebrows can be modified by precise BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport® injections. The crow's feet areas, lateral to the eyes, the lines over the nose, and some of the neck bands may be treated as well.
The hyperactive chin muscle can also be treated this way to create a softer chin.
"I personally perform the injections and do not delegate injections to a nurse or a physician assistant."
BOTOX® Cosmetic has also been approved to treat severe migraine headaches and a condition called hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating.
Most common side effects with both BOTOX® Cosmeticand Dysport® are temporary headache, fatigue, dry mouth, discomfort or pain in the region where the injection was administered, neck or muscle pain, and eye problems such as double vision and blurred vision.
If you have deep creases, repeating injections about every four months over a year will help soften the lines because the muscle is prevented to contract and make the lines deeper. This is also a great way to prevent frown lines from becoming permanent and deep. To learn more about Dysport® and BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment, contact our Houston practice today.
