All last week, the Ravens had to block their upcoming battle with the Pittsburgh Steelers from their minds and focus on the Philadelphia Eagles.
It took a scary turn, but the Ravens succeeded in beating the Philadelphia Eagles.
Now the Ravens can officially turn their attention to the Steelers, and they were more than excited to do so immediately following Sunday's win at M&T Bank Stadium.
On Christmas day, the Ravens and Steelers will battle for first place in the AFC North. The final result could immediately decide the division.
"It's kind of looked this way for a while, and obviously we had to take care of business and do our thing," quarterback Joe Flacco said.
"I'm sure it's what everybody wants, and we're up for the challenge. It's going to be a fun day, going in there on Christmas, into Pittsburgh, into that environment. It'll be a pretty cool place to go."
Had the Cincinnati Bengals held off the Steelers on Sunday, the Ravens would have had a chance to clinch the AFC North crown with a win in Pittsburgh on Christmas day.
If the Ravens win, they still may also need to win in Cincinnati in Week 17 to finish with the same record as the Steelers and take the division with the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Steelers have the winless Cleveland Browns on the schedule in Week 17.
The Steelers (9-5), however, can clinch the AFC North division if they knock off the Ravens. It would push Baltimore (8-6) two games behind.
The once-struggling AFC North has seen the Ravens and Steelers emerge, as both teams have jockeyed for playoff position during strong November and Decembers. The Ravens have won five of their last seven games after a four-game losing skid. The Steelers have won five straight after dropping four in a row.
"Well, we put ourselves in a great scenario – they did too," linebacker C.J. Mosley said.
"We know what they're going to do. They know what we're going to do. Obviously, they're going to scheme up some stuff, and we're going to do the same. But at the end of the day, it's Pittsburgh versus the Ravens, so we know it's going to be four quarters."
The majority of the NFL's Week 16 games will be played on Saturday. The Ravens-Steelers matchup at 4:30 p.m. is one of just two games slated for Christmas day – making it essentially a primetime broadcast.
"This is what you live for," safety Eric Weddle said. "It's all the hours, all the sacrifice, all the time, it's for a chance to win the division and get into the dance. You hope and dream every day you're getting up at 6 a.m. or 5 a.m., you don't see your kids – it's for this chance, and it's all worth it.
"We'll be ready to roll. Nothing more out there for us than to have a chance at the division against a rival team. It's going to be amazing."

A British Christmas tradition that's very popular in Canada, too, mincemeat tarts are a mainstay in many households at this time of year. If you have British ancestry, you're probably familiar with them - and made with from-scratch mincemeat and a basic sweet shortcrust pastry, they're the perfect holiday treat.
With a filling of sweet, warming mincemeat, made with homemade candied peel, dried fruit, and brandy, it's just right on a cold winter evening. This version is vegetarian, made with butter instead of suet (or vegan if you'd like).
These are, of course, a bit more time consuming than store bought mincemeat and pastry shells, but it's very well worth it. Take the time to make your own candied peel, mincemeat, and pie dough - if you think you don't like mince tarts, 100% homemade might change your mind.
Ingredient Notes and Substitutions
- Pastry: you can use store-bought shortcrust pastry if preferred. We've included the method in the recipe card below, but suggest reading through the full post if it's your first time making pastry.
- Mincemeat: canned or pre-made mincemeat can of course be substituted for homemade.
- Make it plant-based: to make the tarts vegan, use our vegan pie crust and go for the vegan option (using vegan butter) in the mincemeat.
Step 1: make the pastry and chill ahead of time. Roll out the pastry and cut circles of dough. Cut tops for the tarts too, or small shapes for decoration.
Step 2: place the larger rounds into the muffin cups, pressing gently to make sure they're touching the bottoms of the cups.
Step 3: fill each shell with about 2 tablespoons of mincemeat.
Step 4: top each tart with a smaller round or shape cut from the pastry.
Step 5: brush the pastry tops with an egg wash.
Step 6: bake the tarts in the middle rack of the oven.
Step 7: they should be golden and slightly puffy looking when ready.
Step 8: cool the tarts fully before dusting with icing sugar and serving.
Top Tips
- Add an egg wash: the egg wash isn't mandatory if you're going with the vegan option, but it adds a nice shiny golden element that's very festive and pretty. We recommend it.
- Use two tins: this makes 15 tarts, so if you have two muffin tins, make use of them.
- Make it with chocolate: add some dark chocolate to the centre of each tart for a bit of a twist – it pairs well with the mincemeat flavours.
Recipe Notes
If you're covering every tart fully in pastry and not cutting shapes, make sure to poke some holes in the tops with a fork in any case. The steam needs to escape during baking to avoid a soggy bottom - this way you get a nice crisp crust all around.
How to Store
Storage: keep cooled mince tarts in a sealed container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or refrigerate a bit longer. For any longer storage, we recommend freezing.
Freezing: these freeze really well, and can be made up to three months in advance. Just freeze in airtight containers after the tarts have cooled fully and take them out as needed.
What are mincemeat tarts made of?
Mincemeat tarts feature a pastry crust and filling of dried fruit, candied peel, and brandy (mincemeat). Some more traditional recipes will include beef or mutton in the mince.
What was the meat in mincemeat pie?
In historical recipes, the meat most often used is beef or lamb/mutton. Some recipes do call for other types of meat but those are most common.
Why do people eat mincemeat pie at Christmas?
While there's no real clear reason why it's a specific Christmas meal historically, it's probably simply due to saving special foods for the holiday season, and its history dates back to the 13th century.

Mincemeat Tarts
- 12-cup muffin tin
- Rolling Pin
- 2 ¾ inch or 7 cm cookie cutters
- Whisk
- pastry brush
- Mincemeat you'll need about half the batch
- Shortcrust pastry
- 1 large egg
- Icing sugar for dusting
- Make the shortcrust pastry according to instructions and chill before starting on the tarts.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and set out a 12-cup muffin tin, plus a second tin if you have one.
- Divide the finished dough in half, then roll it out on a lightly floured surface to 3-4mm (⅛ inch).
- Cut circles of dough slightly larger than your muffin cups in diameter (about 9 cm or 3.5 inches is good). Set aside. Using a slightly smaller cutter (7 cm or 2 ¾ inches) cut tops for the tarts. You can also cut out small shapes (stars, hearts, etc.).
- Place the larger rounds into the muffin cups, pressing gently to make sure they're touching the bottoms of the cups. Fill each tart about ¾ full with mincemeat (about 2 tablespoons each).
- Top each tart with a smaller round or shape cut from the pastry. If using a full round, dampen the edges of the lid with a touch of water to help it adhere to the base.
- Use a fork to poke holes in the tops of any full pastry lids that don't have shapes cut out.
- Beat the egg with a teaspoon of water and use a pastry brush to brush the tops of each tart with egg wash.
- Bake the tarts for 20-22 minutes, or until golden. Cool in the tin for 10 minutes before carefully removing and cooling fully. Dust with icing sugar when cooled.

Your Spaghetti
I worked it out.
552 days.
Or – 1 year, 6 months, 4 days.
And when I think about it too deeply, my belly aches and my eyes fill up.
And I don't know what to say. The words won't come.
So I decide to fill my mouth up.
Garlic, lemon zest, fresh basil.
Olives in oil, not brine, that you brought over so long ago. The jar is almost finished.
I measure them out carefully, sparks of glossy darkness.
A pinch of sugar to bring out the best in the slow-cooking tomatoes, just like you taught me.
They will never taste as good as the ones from home. But we work with what we've got.
I sit down to eat, and I send you a picture, and I look outside at the grey sky, and my eyes fill up again.
I twirl the spaghetti around the tines of my fork, and think about all the times we sat around a table together without a second thought.
I will never take a second of time together for granted ever again.
I will savour every bite.

I love to bake when I have time and have taken to baking with healthier ingredients. I ordered Nutiva Coconut Flour recently and I was so excited to give it a try. A healthy alternative to regular flour, I was totally in. Who can say no to healthy and delicious Blueberry Chia Muffins? Not this girl! The recipe actually came off the back of the Nutiva Coconut Flour bag but I changed up a couple of things, I don't have any coconut milk or raw honey in the house. If you have gluten or dairy dietary restrictions, these muffins are gluten and dairy free. *depending on the flour & milk product you choose to use.*
A couple of weeks ago I went grocery shopping and came upon a great deal on blueberries, three pints for $5. I thought it was a good deal so I grabbed three pints of beautiful sweet blueberries. I kept thinking, "I'm going to make those blueberry muffins from the bag." As I mentioned I ended up having to change a couple of the ingredients because I didn't have certain items.
Here's the recipe:
- 1 cup flour (use any I used coconut)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 cup almond milk (or any milk)
- 6 eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
- 1/4 cup of chia seeds (optional but it adds to the muffin)
- 4tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pint of blueberries
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Keep wet & dry ingredients separate
- Sift flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl
- Whisk honey, almond milk, eggs, coconut oil and vanilla
- Mix in dry ingredients with wet
- Once combined add in chia seeds and fold in blueberries
- Prepare the muffin tins and fill up 1/2 way up with mixture
- Bake for 22 minutes
- Check to make sure muffins baked all the way with a toothpick
- Let cool
The recipe is super easy to follow and you're going to be so impressed with the muffins.
I was worried about the white pieces until I realized it was the coconut oil. I wasn't too worried about it, the oil melts during the baking process and the muffins turned out super moist and delicious! By the way the original recipe only called for one cup of blueberries. Maybe I'm overindulging but I like for there to be bits of fruit in every bite. Isn't it the worst when you want to enjoy something and you only get a couple of bites? Not with this recipe folks. I'm taking care of ya'll.
See how beautiful they look. So moist, delicious and so good for you.
What's your favorite way to enjoy fruit? Muffins, pies, cookies, cakes?

How To Design A Small Kitchen?
When planning for a smaller living area, creativity and utilising the most minimal materials are key. Small kitchens often give rise to common concerns due to absence of functionality. preparing a large meal? Being unable to multitask is a result of having less countertop space. Do you like hosting guests and find yourself in the kitchen most of the time? You'll probably experience cramping. Do you take pleasure in storing your preferred foods? If there are no cabinets or other storage options, items will frequently be left in the open, which will clog the area. However, this does not mean you have to compromise if you are a homeowner. We've learned from constantly changing kitchen trends that the perfect solution to your issue might just be within reach. So let's begin by talking about more important issues that should come up when planning a small kitchen. This does not, however, mean that you have to give in as a homeowner. Because kitchen trends are constantly evolving, we are confident that the ideal solution to your issue is just around the corner. So let's start by discussing a few of the most crucial topics that need to be considered when designing a small kitchen.
The storage, layout, lighting, and flooring lighting are the main elements that need to be considered first when designing a smaller living area such as your kitchen. This is due to the fact that these four factors will primarily impact how roomy your kitchen appears, rather than just how big it is. When it comes to the overall feel of your kitchen, the layout will undoubtedly be the most noticeable example of these factors in action. Kitchen designers will advise redesigning your kitchen taking into consideration to include a work triangle, especially for smaller spaces.
For those who are not familiar, the placement of your stove, sink, and refrigerator in a triangle around each other promotes greater convenience and a more effective workflow. But the triangle is actually where the kitchen layout actually starts. There are many different types of kitchen layouts that can fit any shape, depending on your preferences and needs. Most of the time, choosing the t
One of the six most popular kitchen layouts—U-shaped, L-shaped, G-shaped, single-walled, kitchen island, or galley—will be recommended by most designers or contractors. The best workflow can be achieved by selecting the appropriate layout that includes a work triangle, which will make the cooking process a breeze.
One thing we all want more is storage. However, you can be inventive with what you currently have. To maximize the use of less, consider taking some calculated risks that will pay off later. These risks can range from hanging stemware to vertical cabinet solutions to open shelving. Most homeowners face a similar situation, where their countertops turn into extra storage until they become a disorganized mess.
Keep an eye on your walking path. The domain of flooring in the kitchen can be perplexing and is frequently disregarded. However, you can give the impression of more space by using the right materials in the right places. Because it creates the impression that your kitchen is large, plank flooring is frequently advised to be installed horizontally rather than vertically.
Adequate lighting is the ideal way to showcase each of these kitchen components. A poorly placed light fixture or insufficient lighting overall can give the impression that your room is smaller and darker. Draw attention to the warm hues or stark whites that permeate your entire kitchen. Enough natural light will also help you save money on your energy bill.

How about mechanical pencils, lip gloss or chapstick, jigsaw puzzles, children's dictionary, bubb;le bath, micro popcorn(unpopped, ) flash cards or playing cards, gel pens, sports cards, winter hats or gloves, fun socks, comic or paperback books, stickers. Go to a dollar store and let your imagination go wild. Let your son help find what he would like.
I saw a post here a while ago and used it with great approval from adults and kids alike. It basically involved using clear plastic (food-safe) gloves. Place red jelly-beans or raspberries at each fingertip to resemble fingernails then fill the rest of the hand up with popcorn and fasten off at the wrist.
small jars of bubbles
different colored pens
fast food gift certificates
one dollar coins
party photos of themselves and the birthday boy
dollar store halloween decorations (ceramic figurines)
How about picking up those cute little miniature pumpkins - 1 for each child, and allowing them to paint faces on them?
Go to a Store Called: Dollar Tree it is sorta like a Dollar General but MUCH cheaper. That is where I always got our things at for birthday parties. My Daughters also "shopped" there when they were younger for Christmas or birthday gifts for family and friends and thought they were getting a lot for the few dollars they had to spend.

First up, it's important to really understand your intentions behind your purchase and what kind of lifestyle you have in mind. For example, are you looking to travel during the weekends only or do you want to hit the road for weeks at a time? During your research you should be asking yourself a few key questions.
- What is your lifestyle dream?
- Will you mainly travel as an individual, couple, or family?
- Do you have a specific hobby you need to accommodate while you're travelling?
- How important is it to you to have a sought-after brand and model, should you choose to sell it or upgrade?
- Where do you see yourself exploring, and at what time of the year?
- Will you stay in campsites or do you want to freedom camp?
- How long do you want to be away?
A motorhome will suit those whose preference is for a combination vehicle and mobile home; the freedom camper; a person who values maximum manoeuvrability in campgrounds, and anyone who wants to set up camp with minimum fuss.
- Motorhomes are relatively quick and easy to park and set up
- You can be spontaneous and go from place to place quite easily
- With a bit of practice, most confident drivers will easily handle driving a motorhome
- Once you're set up at a campsite, it can be a hassle to pack up and unhook your motorhome if you realise you need extra supplies and have to drive to get them
- Motorhomes are generally more expensive than caravans to purchase
- With cab space taking up room, there's less 'living' space inside a motorhome than a caravan of the same length
Caravans can go most places a motorhome can go; and they can also be used for freedom camping providing the driver is competent towing and at getting in and out of awkward places. You will of course need a suitable tow vehicle and set up time is usually a little longer than with a motorhome and less convenient when it's raining. However, once camp is set up, the tow vehicle is free for travel without the need to unhook power and pack everything away.
- A caravan can double as extra accommodation for friends and family to stay in at home
- Caravans are generally less expensive than motorhomes
- You can set up at your campsite and still have a vehicle to go exploring or shopping
- You'll need to factor in the additional cost of the tow vehicle and its maintenance
- You can't be quite as spontaneous – it's not as easy to pull over and take in a view or check out a shop when you've got to park with a caravan
- You'll need to be confident at towing
- Network with other motorhomers and caravanners, but be sure to back up what you're told with facts. If you don't personally know anyone with an RV you could join a motorhoming Facebook group and get first-hand advice from someone who just went through the process. Many motorhomers in New Zealand have their own blogs and YouTube videos, so do a bit of searching online.
- Try before you buy. If possible, see if you can hire or borrow an RV similar to the one you're thinking of purchasing, even for a small amount of time – preferably overnight – so you can get a real feel for how it will suit your needs.
Still not sure which RV is right for you? A good idea is to read a few reviews and stories about others who have been through the process (MCD magazine has lots online at nzmcd.co.nz). If you have an RV centre nearby, pop in for a chat about which vehicle might be best for the travel lifestyle you're looking for. Most specialists have a wealth of experience and are only too happy to offer impartial opinions.

drive chain type
Drive chains are used in a variety of industrial applications. Unlike roller chains, which are more efficient in terms of weight and size, drive chains slide on steel guides. Drive chains are often used for dirty work. Here's what you need to know about the various types of drive chains. In this article, we'll look at pin chains, engineered steel chains, bushing roller chains, and timing chains. These types are the most common and the most commonly used.
time chain
There are several factors to consider when deciding which drive chain to buy. What matters is how long the chain will last, as the timing chain will stretch over time. However, they are pre-stretched during manufacture to reduce the risk of stretching. Timing chains can also be noisy compared to toothed belt drives, but rails and chain tensioners can alleviate this problem. Timing chains also wear slower than belts, reducing repair costs.
Timing chains require little maintenance compared to belt drives. When well lubricated, timing chains require little maintenance. The only maintenance really required is checking the engine oil level and following the manufacturer's recommended service intervals. Timing chains of drive chains are also safer than belt drives and can be dangerous if the toothed belt tears. Also, the timing chain only needs minor repairs and replacements. Garages can purchase complete timing chain kits that contain all the parts needed for repairs.
Drive chains can be equipped with roller chains or timing chains, depending on the load on the engine. The style of the timing chain depends on the type of motor used. However, the roller chain is the most common choice due to its high strength and NVH properties. The roller chain has two tabs pressed into the eyes, and two rollers above them. These components work together to improve engine performance.
Many modern vehicles use timing chains. Timing gears synchronize the camshaft and crankshaft so that the valves open and close at the appropriate times. This is critical to the running quality, power output, and fuel consumption of the engine. The timing chain also reduces the amount of pollution emitted by the vehicle. Over the past two decades, many OEMs have turned to time chains for OHC/DOHC engines.
pin chain
Steel pivot chains feature open barrels to reduce blocking and material buildup. These chains are designed for power transmission and transportation applications, often used in agricultural applications. They can be custom welded using specialized accessories. These chains can be used in agricultural, industrial and municipal applications. Here's a closer look at each. Read on to learn about the benefits of steel pivot chains.
The Long Pitch Class 700 Pivot Chain is a versatile chain for conveying and lifting products. Its T-head pins fit snugly so dust doesn't get into the pin holes. It is also constructed with a closed bearing structure to prevent elongation due to wear. Steel pivot chains are designed for high fatigue applications and are versatile.
Engineering Steel Chain
Engineered steel drive chain provides maximum power transfer while minimizing weight. Engineering chains are often used for tough oil drilling operations. Designed for durability and tight tolerances, these chains can be used in a variety of industrial equipment. Whether you need to lift heavy objects or store a lot of items, engineered steel chains will do the job. Read on to learn more about the benefits of engineering chains.
Engineered steel chains consist of links or pin joints with large gaps between the components. The material of these chains is designed to handle abrasives. While many of these chains are used as conveyors, some are designed for drives. You can find these chains on conveyors, forklifts, bucket elevators, oil rigs and more. To get the most out of them, they should be able to withstand the power produced by the prime mover.
The chain can withstand high tensile stresses and is ductile enough to withstand fatigue. The center-to-center distance between the chain and sprockets is between 30% and 50% of the pitch. On smaller sprockets, the arc of contact between the teeth and chain must be at least 120 degrees. The resistance of the chain drive depends on the use environment, including vibration, noise, fatigue strength and other factors.
There are many types of engineering steel drive chains, each with a different function. The most commonly used type is the elevator. Its lift mechanism raises and lowers the carriage. Most cranes are attached to the load with hooks. Another type of chain is the oval link. Its links are welded and the sprocket has receivers for each link. It is used in low speed applications for elevators, chain hoists and anchors in offshore operations.
Bushing Roller Chain
Typically, a bushing roller chain as a drive chain consists of two link assemblies. The inner link consists of two plates held together by two sleeves, while the outer link consists of two plates connected by pins that pass through the inner link. However, there are some differences between bushing roller chains. The main difference is the type of link and the amount of lubrication required. If you want to learn more about bushing roller chains, keep reading.
While roller chains are generally stronger and more durable than bushing chains, they are not immune to wear. During the driving cycle, they lengthen and undergo a process called articulation. The rate at which they elongate depends on the lubrication and load applied to them. The frequency of pin and bushing articulation is also critical. Like other wear parts, the manufacture of critical wear parts requires close attention to detail to ensure optimum performance. Correct raw material selection, part fabrication, and assembly are key factors in achieving optimum performance. Improperly prepared parts can affect wear life and performance.
Consider your application and load distribution when selecting a bushing roller chain as your drive chain. The length of the chain must be between 30 and 50 times its pitch. The arc of contact between the small sprocket teeth must be at least 120 degrees. The resistance of the drive chain depends on the usage environment, which will determine its fatigue strength and vibration level. It's a good idea to check the chain length before deciding to replace it.
flat top chain
The TSplus flat top drive chain is the most flexible conveying medium on the market today. They can be connected end-to-end to create extended conveyor lines. The side bend design allows it to be used with a variety of conveyor types including inline, snake, and carousel conveyors. These chains are available in a variety of sizes, ranging in width from 3 feet to 20 feet.
A variety of materials are available for flat-top chains, including steel and plastic. Steel chains are ideal for applications requiring wear resistance. They are sturdy and well made. Plastic chains are particularly durable, but not suitable for harsh environments. Stainless steel flat top chains are suitable for a variety of applications, and some manufacturers make them from stainless steel or even aluminum. If your application requires a durable flat top chain, choose a chain made from iwis hardened stainless steel.
Another type of flat-top drive chain is the side bend chain. Suitable for flexible machinery requiring efficient conveying. It is equipped with a single hinge pin or double hinge pin. Either option will do, but each hinge pin has its advantages. Single hinge pin chains are suitable for smaller light-duty conveyors, while double hinge pins are more suitable for medium and heavy-duty applications.
CZPT is a modular flat top chain conveyor system. Its standardized components and modules can be easily integrated into any production process. And because it's a single track, you can lengthen or shorten it as needed. Its versatile design makes it compatible with other conveyor systems such as belts and sprockets. This monorail modular design allows system lengths up to 40 meters and is compatible with other conveyor systems.

What is a roller chain?
What is a roller chain? A roller chain is a transmission system that transmits power from one shaft to another. Internal lubricant helps chains last longer and are interchangeable. Chains are usually made of carbon or alloy steel. Stainless steel is sometimes used in food processing machinery or in environments where lubrication is problematic. Brass and nylon are also sometimes used. If you need to slow down the machine, nylon chains can be used.
Roller chains are used to transmit power from one shaft to another
Generally speaking, the life of a roller chain is limited by three main factors: wear, corrosion, and fatigue. These can be minimized by following some simple guidelines. For optimum performance, the roller chain must be lubricated. Proper lubrication reduces friction and extends product life. Remember that corrosion and wind resistance can adversely affect lubrication, so protect the product properly.
A chain is a mechanical device used to transmit power from one shaft to another. The chain consists of a series of steel plates called bushings. Bushings are attached to the roller chain by pins or bushings. The block and bushing are held together by pins or bushings C riveted to the outer link D. The chain is also attached to the sprocket and bucket by pins or hooks. Chain pitch is measured between hinge centers, usually denoted p.
There are three types of chains: single-strand standard series, multi-strand standard series, and silent chain. Single strand chains are the most common type and cover a wide range of drive loads. Multi-strand chains provide greater power capacity without increasing chain pitch or line speed. An inverted tooth chain is a variant of a single-strand chain that eliminates the noise caused by pitch-related friction.
The inner and outer plates of the roller chain drive are made of steel. The rollers are positioned evenly between the chain links and are fastened to the sprockets. In addition, the rollers can rotate freely within the bushing. The chain links are arc-shaped and mesh with the sprocket teeth to transmit power through the chain.
Chain drives are another common way of transmitting mechanical power. These are the simplest forms of power transmission and are used on conveyor belts and other low-speed applications. The chain wraps around the sprocket and passes through the sprocket whose teeth mesh with the links. This mechanism transfers mechanical power from one shaft to another, increasing speed.
They are interchangeable
There are many different types of roller chains, but most are made of steel. Although they have their own advantages and features, they are generally interchangeable. You can buy different kinds of roller chains from domestic and foreign manufacturers, and you can choose the one that best suits your needs. Bearing Services can help you choose the right bearing for your application needs and budget. Here are some important things to consider before buying a roller chain. Here are some tips to make it easier for you to buy the right type of chain.
When choosing the right roller chain, be sure to consult the available size charts. Depends on how much chain you need to move the load you need to move. Remember that roller chains can be manufactured to fit a variety of machines and must meet your specific needs. Also, the chain should be long enough for the machine you are using. Make sure to buy a chain made of high-quality materials.
Double pitch roller chains have a flat top surface and are used in many different conveying applications. Double-pitch load-carrying roller chains, also known as oversized roller double-pitch chains, have rollers that extend beyond the sidebars to carry products. Double pitch drive series roller chains are used in elevators, long conveyor drives, agricultural machinery, and commercial sprinkler systems.
The tensile strength of a roller chain is a key factor to consider before purchasing a chain. The tensile strength of a chain is a function of the maximum force the chain can withstand before breaking. The three different types of tensile strength represent the force a chain can withstand without breaking. Each chain also has different strengths that can determine the type of chain you need.
The outer and inner links of the roller chain are designed for bearings. This allows the chain to be paired or unpaired with its internal links. The outer link has a pin, and the inner and outer pins are press-fit into the connecting plate. These links are usually made of steel and have a tensile strength of about 20 times their weight. The fatigue strength of two-pitch offset links is the same as that of the base chain.
They reduce wear with internal lubricants
In a roller chain, the pins and bushings rotate inside the chain without lubricant on the outside. They are in contact with the teeth of the sprocket and can easily wear out if not lubricated. The plates that connect the links and pivot about the pins can also rub against each other and cause wear. This is where lubricants come in handy. Without lubricant, the bare metal of the plate and bushing would rub against each other.
The lubricant should have the appropriate viscosity to penetrate critical internal surfaces and form an effective oil film. Recommended viscosities are listed in Table 1. Lubricants must be clean and non-corrosive. For roller chains, a good quality non-clean petroleum base oil is sufficient. While defoamers are not required, other additives such as antioxidants and extreme pressure inhibitors may be useful. However, impure oils should be avoided due to the risk of damage.
The shape of the spray head 10 overlaps with a conventional drive chain 12. The drive chain includes a plurality of rollers 24 and roller link plates 26. Each roller includes a roller pin 29 and is connected to a pair of pin link plates 28. Most drive chains have critical wear points on the sides of the roller pins 29. The shape of the spray head 10 prevents overspray onto the central portion of the roller.
In addition to preventing wear, these chains have unique specifications. Manufacturer CZPT requires raw material suppliers to certify that their products meet standards set by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). CZPTs do not accept uncertified raw materials. For safety, the machine must be turned off before attempting to measure the chain. After the system is shut down, the measurement process should be completed in accordance with safety procedures.
General spray oil has lubricating properties, but is not as good as other types of chain lubricants. These are typically used for rust protection and include antioxidant chemicals. Generally, they are inexpensive and widely available in retail stores. However, they have the disadvantage of being very penetrating and difficult to apply evenly. Oil cannot stay on the chain as it spins, which can accelerate wear and corrosion.
They can be used to speed up or slow down machines
Typically, roller chains are chains used to move mechanical system components. Unlike belts, roller chains can be used to speed up or slow down a machine. The main difference between belts and roller chains is the lubrication process. Belts use lubrication to help them move at a constant speed, but should not exceed the critical speed of the roller chain. This critical speed is not easy to determine and lubrication is critical to its life.
A roller chain is a chain consisting of a steel bushing that holds the inner plate A and pins C together. Pin C is riveted to outer link D, while roller R surrounds each bushing B. The teeth of the sprocket are supported on the rollers. They spin freely on pins and bushings, reducing friction.
The chains can be single-stranded, double-stranded, or multi-stranded. The rated power capacity of the single strand chain can meet various drive load requirements. Multi-strand chains provide higher power capacity without increasing chain pitch or line speed. The silent chain, also known as the inverted tooth chain, consists of a series of toothed chainplates. The pins of the chain are pressed into the wide ends of the sidebars and outer links.
Although roller chains are a common mechanical component, they can fail under certain conditions. The most common cause of excessive wear is wrong to load sizing. Each manufacturer sets a maximum workload for its product. A chain that is too small for the load carried will not run smoothly and may cause premature failure. Chains can also fail due to rust or improper maintenance.
There are many ways to choose the correct size roller chain. The easiest way to choose the right one is to use a horsepower chart to determine the speed of the motor. RPM will determine the size of the chain and the number of teeth on the drive sprocket. Conveyor chains offer a variety of options to move products horizontally or vertically, even around bend radii.

Those waiting for a chance to use DALL-E may soon get their turn. The powerful AI tool that generates images based on provided text will open in beta to one million users on the waitlist, OpenAI, the company that created DALL-E, announced today.
Users enter a phrase or string of words into DALL-E, and the tool returns its own interpretation in the form of four images, ranging from whimsical to hyperreal. An updated DALL-E 2, launched in April, added the ability to edit existing images.
As of last month, the tool was only available to a few thousand as other users waited to be granted access. Many people without access to DALL-E learned about the tool in June when images created using DALL-E Mini — a less powerful AI image generator inspired by OpenAI's tool but not associated with it — went viral.
For waitlisted users who get access, here's how it will work: each prompt entered into DALL-E will cost one credit, and users will get 50 free credits during their first month. After that, users will get 15 free credits a month. If that's not enough, additional credits are available for purchase — $15 for 115 credits.

Pasta is a staple at my house. My boys would be happy eating some type of pasta every single day if they could…especially my youngest. I pack him a bowl of spaghetti at least once per week for lunch!
Pasta is a good thing in my world too. It's hard to beat the convenience and price, so it's on my menu quite often. I try to keep the meals and types of pasta used varied so no one gets bored. One of my all time favorite meals is this Cheesy Chicken Manicotti. It's simple to make and is always a hit at the dinner table!
You don't need a ton of ingredients and I make it super simple by grabbing a rotisserie chicken at the deli. Mix the chicken with lots of cheese and some spinach then top with the great taste of Prego® Sauce and you'll be on your way to big flavor. You can even prep this dish ahead of time so that you just pop it in the oven when you need it! That comes in very handy on busy weeknights after the kids' practices and/or games!
Serve up with a side salad topped with Bolthouse Farms® Dressing and a Pepperidge Farm® Stone Baked Artisan Roll and you have a delicious meal that everyone will love!
- 8 oz box of manicotti shells
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 15 oz tub of ricotta cheese
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 10 oz pk of spinach, thawed and well drained of any liquid
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 24 oz jar of [i]Prego®[/i] Sauce
- Preheat oven to 350º F.
- Parboil the manicotti noodles by boiling for about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the chicken, ricotta cheese, garlic, spinach, egg, basil and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese and mix to combine.
- Spray a 13×9 baking dish with cooking spray and then spread 1/2 cup of [i]Prego®[/i] Sauce over the bottom of the dish.
- Fill the manicotti with the filling and place in prepared baking dish.
- Cover with remaining pasta sauce.
- Bake in 350º oven for 30 minutes.
- Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese has melted.
- Serve & enjoy!

How Caregivers Can Benefit From Remote Patient Monitoring
The healthcare business has seen tremendous changes and advances in recent years, particularly with the introduction of remote patient monitoring equipment. Remote patient monitoring (RPM) is a sort of technology that allows carers to remotely monitor their patients' health and well-being. RPM has shown to be an efficient strategy to improve patient care while lowering expenses. We shall look at the advantages of remote patient monitoring for carers in this article.
What exactly is Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)?
Remote patient monitoring is a sort of healthcare technology that allows healthcare providers to monitor their patients' health and well-being from the comfort of their own homes. This technology makes use of medical gadgets that capture patient data and transmit it in real time to healthcare providers. This information is then used to develop personalized treatment programmes that assist people in managing their health conditions.
Chronic Disease Management and RPM
Remote patient monitoring technology is very beneficial in the management of chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. Caregivers can notice possible health problems early and intervene before they become more serious by remotely monitoring patients with chronic diseases.
Aging in Place and RPM
Remote patient monitoring technologies can also assist elderly in remaining in their homes as they age. Caregivers can spot potential health concerns in elders early by remotely monitoring them, allowing them to intervene before they become more serious. This can assist seniors in maintaining their independence and quality of life for a longer period of time.
Home Healthcare and RPM
In home healthcare settings, remote patient monitoring technology is becoming increasingly common. Home healthcare providers can provide excellent care while eliminating the need for in-person visits by remotely monitoring patients.
How do Caregivers Benefit From Remote Patient Monitoring?
Better Patient Outcomes
Improved patient outcomes is one of the key advantages of remote patient monitoring for carers. RPM technology enables carers to monitor their patients' health in real time, allowing them to identify potential health issues early. This early detection can aid in the prevention of hospitalisations and other negative health effects.
Improved Patient Care
Remote patient monitoring technology gives carers access to a variety of patient data, which may be utilized to develop personalized treatment strategies. This information enables carers to personalize their care to each patient's specific needs, resulting in better patient outcomes.
Savings on expenses
Remote patient monitoring can assist carers in saving money on healthcare expenses. Caregivers can spot potential health concerns early by remotely monitoring patients, avoiding costly hospitalisations and other bad health outcomes. Furthermore, RPM technology has the potential to eliminate the need for in-person visits, saving both carers and patients time and money.
Increased Patient Engagement
Remote patient monitoring technologies can boost patient involvement by allowing people to participate in their own treatment. RPM devices provide patients with real-time data on their health, allowing them to make educated healthcare decisions.
Peace of Mind
Remote patient monitoring technologies can give carers peace of mind by allowing them to remotely check the health of their patients. This technology can boost carers' confidence in their capacity to offer excellent care while also reducing stress and worry.
Caregivers benefit greatly from remote patient monitoring technology. RPM technology can improve patient outcomes, improve patient care, save money, increase patient participation, and provide carers with peace of mind by giving real-time patient data. Remote patient monitoring technology is projected to become an increasingly significant aspect of the treatment continuum as the healthcare business evolves.

New Jerseyans under the age of 21 would be barred from buying a rifle or shotgun under a new bill introduced by Democratic lawmakers.
The bill (A-3815) would raise the minimum age to get a permit to purchase the weapons from 18 to 21. That would be in line with the state's law regarding handguns, which can't be sold to anyone under the age of 21.
The bill is sponsored by Assemblymen Roy Freiman (D-Somerset) and Andrew Zwicker (D-Mercer).
"This is about preventing gun violence," Freiman said in a statement. "There is no easy solution to the proliferation of gun violence in this country, but there are measures we can take to help keep people safe. Bringing the rules on rifles and shotguns in line with the rules on handguns can help. If you have to be 21 to buy a handgun, the same standard should apply to rifles and shotguns."
The bill is the latest gun control measure to be proposed by Democrats in the wake of the February school shooting in Parkland, Florida. The state Assembly passed a six-bill gun control package in March to further toughen New Jersey's strict gun laws, and the Senate is expected to vote on those bills in June. Gov. Phil Murphy has vowed to sign them all.
The new legislation, announced Monday, would allow people under the age of 21 to possess a handgun, shotgun or rifle under the following circumstances:
- If they're in the presence or under the supervision of a parent, legal guardian or someone who holds a handgun permit or firearms purchaser ID;
- If they're an active duty or honorably discharged military and law enforcement member;
- For competition, target practice, instruction and training;
- For hunting during the designated hunting season, if they possesses a valid hunting license;
- If they're between the ages of 18 and 21 and have already obtained a firearms purchaser ID card before to the bill's effective date.
"We want to make it harder for people with bad intentions from getting their hands on these weapons, but we also want to strike the right balance," Zwicker said in a statement. "We realize that some young people use these weapons for lawful hunting or as part of their work. This bill's careful exemptions recognize those pragmatic realities, while also limiting access to weapons for people who might want to use them to hurt others."
Scott Bach, a New Jersey gun rights advocate, said criminals would ignore the age requirement if it became law, and it would make law-abiding citizens less safe.
"The 18-year-old female living alone can't defend herself," said Bach, the executive director of Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. "That person is left a victim by this legislation. It doesn't make anyone safer because criminals and madmen won't follow it, and it makes the people who do follow it less safe."
The bill's sponsors cited the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, which found that 18 to 20 year olds commit gun homicides at a rate nearly four times more than adults 21 and older.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that focuses on helping people heal by accessing and healing their protective and wounded inner parts. Under the scope of IFS, it is believed that we are all made up of different parts of ourselves; each part is necessary to help us survive different aspects and times in our lives.
It has been helpful to clients who have struggled with Trauma, anxiety, depression, attachment issues, self-esteem, shame, anger issues, and more, and it uses a non-pathologizing approach.
How Does the Internal Family Systems Model Work?
In IFS therapy, a therapist will guide the client in identifying their parts of self and work with them to release parts that might carry a burden and be stuck in time.
The therapist will guide you in:
- Finding or identifying the part that needs attention.
- Focusing on that part, giving the part your full attention.
- Fleshing Out or describing the part, what it looks and feels like.
- Discuss any feelings that arise toward that part.
- BeFriending the part by exploring this part more deeply, getting curious about it, and accepting its presence.
- Exploring the part's fears and what might happen if its function shifted.
If you or someone you know would benefit from Internal Family Systems, please contact me today. I would be happy to speak with you about how I may be able to help.

Others believe it is the great copper stills which continue to be directly fired, and some believe the secret is the family's uncompromising commitment to maturing Glenfarclas in the best Oak casks in traditional Dunnage Warehouses.
Cask Type: Sherry Cask
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Complex, sherried, light butterscotch aromas, with a hint of dried fruit.
Palate: Full bodied with a superb balance of sherried sweetness and malty tones.
Finish: Long lasting, gloriously sherried, sweet and distinguished.
