VERMES Microdispensing introduces its highly optimized MDS 3250+ Micro Dispensing System for next generation high viscosity media
The highest precision new microdispensing system MDS 3250+ is based on high speed piezo technology and is suitable for a wide range of sophisticated industrial applications where higher viscosity fluids are applied.
New high-performance microdispensing system MDS 3250+ from VERMES Microdispensing GmbH for highly viscous media
Munich, Germany – April, 4th 2017 – VERMES Microdispensing, the micro dispensing system manufacturer, today introduced the new MDS 3250+ system of its MDS 3000 Micro Dispensing Series for high viscosity media. The new high-performance jetters are designed for ultra-precise contactless dispensing of fluids in a large range of viscosity up to 2.000 Pas.
VERMES Microdispensing's system development banks on a sophisticated engineering and modeling process that simulates a real dispensing industrial situation combined with a series of complex mathematical algorithmic formulas. The simulations are used in optimizing component selection and in model based design to generate perfect mechanical movement and fluid flow.
The VERMES Microdispensing valves are known for their precision and durability. An exact pairing of nozzle and tappet is getting more and more critical when nano- and sub-nano microdispensing quality is required.
The special FEM & CFD modeling software allows for the company's expert to perform a full 3-D simulation of the VERMES Microdispensing valve including the pieoz-electric, mechanical and fluidic formulations characterizing the dynamic responses of a system in real operation. With this deep understanding of the system dynamics particular application scenarios can be simulated and essential factors that influencing efficiency are identified.
"This simulation driven product development has become an important aspect in our highly innovative and future orientated firm. By performing a multitude of simulations our R&D department has the freedom of running extensive what-if analysis", states Jürgen Städtler, CEO of VERMES Microdispensing.
The MDS 3250+ incorporates a highly efficient piezo actuator that leads to higher stroke and force, which makes the system suitable for highest viscous media such as SMT adhesives, silicones, LED-phosphor, underfill materials, hot melts or solder pastes.
The high speed piezo technology accelerates the dispense cycle with extremely fast opening and closing times of the valve, which results in higher throughput and enhanced system performance.
Fully automated production lines require shortest set-up times and fast process configuration. With the novel "Quickadjust" VERMES Microdispensing has designed an extremely user-friendly feature that allows adjustment of tappet and nozzle from the top instead from below. This does not only facilitate system accessibility and but also leads to highly precise adjustment results.
"With the new MDS 3250+ system VERMES Microdispensing has designed a high-volume manufacturing dispense-tool that offers extremely reproducible dispensing outcomes of identical single dots down to 0.8nl", explains Juergen Staedtler. "It is the dispense system of choice for all production plants, such as automotive, semiconductor, microelectronics and consumer electronics, where ultra-precise contactless dispensing of high viscosity fluids is needed."
About us
Headquartered in Germany, VERMES Microdispensing revolutionized microdispensing technology with the introduction of its contact free piezo-based MDS 3000 series in 2001. Today, the company is a world leader in the design and manufacture of innovative microdispensing concepts and systems for adhesives, silicones, greases, solvents and other fluids.
VERMES high precision MDS 3000 valves support modern manufacturing processes across the globe, e.g. for automotive, pharmacology, smart phones, TV sets, lamps, wafers, automated manufacture of LEDs, MEMS components, RFID tags, LC displays and many other electronic devices.

Does using the right size hex key (Allen key) to speed up the disassembly process cause damage to the LEGO Technic pieces?
Active 3 years, 2 months ago
Viewed 244 times
A hex key, being tough metal, is inherently a danger to ABS plastic. Using it to push axles and pop connections will eventually scratch and wear down your parts, something you don't want with technic pieces.
Having used small pliers to get axles out, we should really come up with plastic tools to solve these problems. – tl8 Jul 29 '16 at 6:07
1@tl8 what are you trying to get the axle out of? Lego have a tool for taking elements apart that includes a stub of axle for pushing them through. The limit tends to come attempting to get an axle-connector or 2-axle out of a dead-end element. – Zhaph - Ben Duguid♦ Mar 14 '17 at 15:28

Maid Of Sker
New horror title, Maid Of Sker, is announced and Maid Of Sker will have us holding our breath as we explore a house based on a real-world haunted house
Just in time for Halloween we have another new horror game to look at now in way of Maid Of Sker. Not that it is releasing in time for this Halloween, as it is currently slated for a Q3 2019 release, but Wales Interactive has placed the official teaser out there to get the ball rolling on this new horror title. A title that will bring horror to pretty much all of the platforms next year as Maid Of Sker is slated to hit the PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch as well. Something that seems to be fewer and further between in the current state of the market here.
On top of being announced, Maid Of Sker also comes along with its teaser that you can see below and some extra key bits of information for the game. One of the tidbits being that the game's location is using a real-world haunted location as a point of reference to tell this branching story. A story that will lead to many different endings based on our actions and choices in Maid Of Sker. Something that should have been a given there but I felt like it needed to be detailed out. So there you go.
At the base surface Maid Of Sker sounds a bit like a walking simulator of sorts in this real location, but it does offer up some stealth mechanics from the sound of it all. That is, Wales Interactive is using a 3D sounds mechanic in the game that we will need to learn and master to hide and sneak past enemies that get harder as the game progresses. At some points, we will need to hold our breath to slip by or let an enemy walk past all while managing how long we can do that. So it sounds like Maid Of Sker may be more of a stealth horror game than a haunted walking simulator.
Maid Of Sker — Teaser
Maid Of Sker is a first-person survival horror, set in a remote hotel with a macabre history from Welsh folklore. Brave the nightmares of the Quiet Men. When they arrive, do not panic — don't even breathe. Coming Q3 2019 to PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
Based on the haunting true story of Elizabeth Williams, you play as Thomas Evans, a musician who is thrust into a terrifying battle to save the woman he loves. Set in 1898 in and around Sker House, a real dwelling which still stands to this day and is said to be one the most haunted in Britain.
Featuring realistic 4K visuals with gameplay focused on story, exploration and no-weapon survival tactics. Experience a multiple thread narrative where your decisions matter, unlocking different story paths and multiple endings.
A 3D sound based AI system is the core survival gameplay mechanic. Hide, run, creep, trap and distract are some of the techniques you need to master to survive enemies with super hearing. As you progress, enemies become more difficult to avoid, to the point where standing still and holding your breath is the only option!
Time it correctly and you're safe, for now. Run out of breath and — suffer.
What do you think about Maid Of Sker based on what we have here to look at today? Does the idea of the game's location being based on a real-world haunt make you look forward to this game or just a bit of background? Do you see this more as a stealth game now or will it be a horror game that is just walking around and twisting doorknobs? Let us know what you are thinking down in the comments. If there is more to share with you on Maid Of Sker, we definitely will. Be sure to keep checking back for those updates and more.

No one can argue that pictures and videos are now the standards of advertising. Even simple content requires an infographic if you want your content to deliver traffic. Pictures sell, words don't. But this requires a different level of creativity, something that most SMEs find lacking in their current roster.
The major setback for small and medium-sized entrepreneurs is the cost of graphic design. You can choose to hire your graphic design team, or you can outsource your SME design needs to companies that offer shared services.
What Are Shared Services?
If you hire your team members, they work solely for you. A designer will do nothing all day but to produce ads, charts, or animations. The challenge here is that you do not need to put out ads every day. You also do not need to produce new videos on a daily basis, especially so if you are an SME enterprise. And you may find yourself paying the salary of under-utilized employees.
Companies realize that they can provide value to a businessperson by putting up a team of graphic designers who can work for multiple clients at the same time. This set-up is the reason we call them shared services. As a client, you do not own their time, but you certainly can ask them to produce work according to an agreement.
What can you expect from them?
Since you are the client, you can draw a contract for a one-off project, or you can hire their services on a continuous basis. Part of the deal should indicate the amount of work you expect from the shared services team. If you need graphic designs on a weekly basis, a graphic designer will produce one at par to your specifications.
If you need videos, then you or your marketing team will work together with the members of the outsourcing company on a timeline you set. Essentially, they can only dedicate time and effort according to the project expectations. After that, they can either move on to complete another client's projects or move on with your new ones.
Where can you find them?
Outsourcing is not a new concept in the Philippines. The country is the world's capital in outsourcing services. Although the majority of services found here comprises contact centers operating in different channels, the country is moving at a pace to compete globally as far as other services are concerned.
Part of this growth is a trajectory by digital marketing, advertising, graphic design, and animation services. The country also has many experts in other fields of technology like network operations centers, data infrastructure, and others.
SMEs have a lot to gain with outsourcing their marketing and graphic design needs to shared services companies. By doing so, they will only spend a fraction of what it would cost to build their in-house teams. The quality of work is also beyond question, as these companies only employ the best in their respective areas of expertise.
SMEs have the choice of contacting these professional agencies, or risk working with freelancers and get work that was either copied or work that does not meet the business owner's expectations.

A word from Amaline, the 'Toy Soldiers' costume creator:
My husband and myself are wearing our creative costumes, I always wanted to try and become a toy so this was perfect.
We just went in our closet and grabbed a old pair of shoes and rain coat for husband I used an old jacket and leggings, we bought several cans of primer spray paint and gloss green hunter spray paint, we used the primer first let it dry and used the green all over everything one a time of course, we looked through our sons toy guns and spray painted it also went to thrift store found a helmet to paint along with other gear to complete costumes.

Huntsville, Ala. (WAFF) -- As a tribute to Huntsville's leadership role with the U.S. space program, Mazda Toyota Manufacturing, U.S.A., Inc. (MTM) will name its two assembly lines Apollo and Discovery, respectively.
Apollo was the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) program that resulted in 12 American astronauts walking on the moon. Discovery also launched the Hubble Space Telescope into orbit and was the first American Spacecraft piloted by a woman, Eileen Collins.
"The scores of brilliant men and women who worked tirelessly to further mankind's progress and exploration into the unknown gives our team motivation to add to the Rocket City's history as a producer of world-class vehicles," said Mark Brazeal, vice president for administration at MTM.
Construction of the MTM plant remains on schedule, with the start of production expected to begin in 2021. Up to 4,000 new jobs will be created and hiring is underway. In August 2017, Toyota and Mazda announced a collaboration to establish MTM, a $1.6 billion joint venture that will assemble up to 300,000 vehicles annually.

You Can Win a Bookstore By Writing a Short Essay
And submitting an entrance fee.
Have you ever had a dream of owning your own bookstore? Well, the only thing that could be standing between you and that dream coming true might be a measly 250-word essay and a check for $75. The owners of a local bookshop in Pennsylvania are holding an essay contest where the winner inherits the store from the retiring couple.
Kevin and Kasey Coolidge opened From My Shelf Books & Gifts in downtown Wellsboro, Pennsylvania in 2006 after outgrowing the bookselling operation they ran from their shared apartment. In the 11 years since opening the only bookstore in town, the space has amassed a loyal following and a special place in the local culture.
The store isn't the only thing in the Coolidge's life that has taken off since then: In the past few years Kevin's children's book series The Totally Ninja Raccoons has taken off, too, leading the couple to question what they want the next decade of their lives to consist of. But one thing was for sure: They didn't want to leave their hometown without a well-stocked bookshop.
RELATED: The Best Bookstores in Every State
So earlier this month, the owners of the bookshop announced a contest: Whoever wrote the best 250-word essay about why a bookstore is important to a community (and paid a $75 entrance fee) would inherit the 1,100-square-foot store, the full inventory and customer base, experienced staff, consultation from the previous owners, as well as a refund on their entry fee.
To ensure that the winners are set up for success, the Coolidges have one stipulation: 4,000 entries must be received by March 31, 2018 in order for there to be a winner, since 4,000 $75 entry fees is what is needed to cover the first six months of rent for the bookstore, as well as transfer ownership of current inventory, shelves, and signage. The owners will extend the contest 60 days if they do not have 4,000 entries by the end of March, but will close the contest, return all entry fees, and continue to run the store if that number is not met.
RELATED: 8 Books You Should Read Before the Emmys
If all goes as planned, the winner is contractually obligated to own and operate the store for one year. After the year, they can sell the business, with agreement from the previous owners.
Sound like a dream come true? For full contest rules, entry forms, as well as legal contracts, head to the My Shelf Books & Gifts blog. Want a handful of great reads instead of the responsibility of a store? Check out our favorite new books this month.

My father was a cabinet maker and he once told me that you have to follow the vein of the wood rather than try to impose your own will on it. I took this literally and have chosen to keep myself open to the opportunities and encounters life throws at me. Throughout my 29-year career as a shoe designer, I've never had a set plan, and I truly believe that everyone has their own specific journey. My advice is, enjoy the adventure. There isn't one narrow way to reach your goal. My experience of journeys started from a young age. When you're a child your imagination allows... Full story

Git Install
satya - 5/7/2018, 10:00:16 AM
Discomfort (with many of the unix tools on windows)
I was hoping the IDEs that I normall work with, like Eclipse, or any of your choice will know how to work with version control systems like Git without explicitly downloading such version control on to the OS!!
Eclipse does have EGit as a plugin.
However there are enough dependencies (I don't recall now exactly what they are as it has been a few weeks) that I did install Git on the windows system.
This document will point out a few links and facts you may want to have for such an installation.
I will also try to cover GitHub (setting up an account etc) as that is what I am using as the server side component.

Many roads to Rome
1. Command line windows git that is installed
2. Git GUI that comes with command line installation
3. Each IDE has their own version of git, sometimes emulating the whole protocol, and sometimes relying on the command line version of git
4. A plethora of other GUI third party programs
5. Now there is this addition tool "Git Desktop", looks like from github
satya - 9/1/2019, 4:16:05 PM
I am happy with EGit while in eclipse
the VSCode support and its extensions are so so
I rarely or never used the GitGui
will see when I need to use the Git Desktop
will be nice if these tools show content of the remote without cloning them first and allow a downloads that are granular

aka... I'm a big ole slacker!
I spent so much time on Saturday working on my Scrap Squad quilt that I passed on my recent routine of working on Midget blocks and BOM blocks on Sunday morning. I thought that I would make the time this afternoon/evening after court, but I was all worked up and that didn't happen either.
When I finally got the block out to work on it, I realized that it is a template block and not a paper pieced block so I figured that it could wait until I am closer to 100% than I am right now.
Since I have the Scrap Squad blocks up on the design wall, I took down my Midgets and now I have a nice little stack of them.
Don't they look cute?!?
Anyone else have any tiny blocks to share?

I'm with ScrapHappy, court??? Anyway, I love your midgets and they do look really nice all stacked up there. I can't wait for you to post your scrap squad quilt. I just love the fabrics that you are using. Are you almost finished with it? What's next after it?

Great stack. That block almost did me in - be well rested when you work on it. Court? Is that some of the neighborhood drama? Just curious. Hope things settle down.

We had a wonderful time traveling and camping in Ecuador. Here's an overview of places we stayed.
Among our overland camps in Ecuador:
- We rough camped at various places, such as along the coast, and at the páramo of Hacienda Zuleta (read about it here).
- We camped in somebody's garden, or we were invited by total strangers who subsequently became good friends, such as the Australian Graham in Ibarra.
- We were invited to camp at a Salesian Mission.
- We paid to camp at Rumi Wilco Ecolodge in Vilcabamba (read about it here).
- We got permission to stay in the parking lot in Saraguro for the Three Kings Celebration (read about it here).
- For New Year's Eve we stayed at a fire station in Cuenca (read about it here).
- We camped in a workshop in Quito for 4 weeks (read about it here) to get a lot of work done (read about it here).
- We camped in centers of small towns such as Zaruma.
- We camped National Parks. While at Podocarpus National Park we couldn't enter the park by car and camped in the parking lot, we had some fantastic camping spots at the Chimborazo Volcano and Cotopaxi National Park.
All in all quite a variety of overland camping spots during our six-month stay in Ecuador.
GPS Waypoints of Campgrounds and Overland Camps in Ecuador
Let there be no misunderstanding: no, you don't have to go to these places. No, these are not by definition the best spots. After having traveled in South America for so long we realize that it's no problem here to find your own beautiful spots for camping. We decided to continue the page anyway, for travelers who would like some tips about camping spots which we enjoyed or found practical. Please note that this is always our personal experience.
You can also check out iOverlander, where you can see where other overlanders spent the night.
Drinking Water from the Tap
Note that sometimes we write 'drinking water from the tap'. This means we drank that water because locals told us it was safe and we didn't get sick from it. Things change, including quality (and safety) of water, so always ask local people if the water is still safe to drink.
Vilcabamba. Camped at Rumi Wilco Ecolodge and greatly enjoyed it (note that the field is only accessibly with small cars) Friendly owners, rustic, reasonable clean bathroom and kitchen, drinking water from the tap. Included in price: hiking all trails of their natural reserve. Only downside: no WIFI. Lies at 10 min walk from downtown (Dec '13, 1569 mtrs).
gps: -4.25830, -79.21659
Saraguro. Camped in the parking lot of the hospital downtown. Tap with drinking water, use of bathroom (Dec '13, 2520 mtrs).
gps: -3.61994, -79.23956
Cuenca. Bomberos (Fire Brigade). There was a parking space left, so we could stay here. Friendly place to stay (2542 mtrs, Dec '14).
gps: -2.91571, -79.00420
|Near Guanazan
Near Guanazan (road between RT80 & RT35). It was tough finding a place to rough camp on this mountainous road. It's not a special place by any means but very quiet; 2 vehicles passed during the rest of the day (2150 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -3.42162, -79.49633
|Podocarpus National Park
Podocarpus National Park (north side). Beautiful park to visit. Can't enter with the car but the parking lot itself is already in the middle of nature (976 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -4.10799, -78.96391
Bomboiza, Salesian Mission. Enough space to camp. Use of (cold) shower and bathroom (794 mtrs, Jan 14).
gps: -3.45474, -78.55276
Cuenca. Homero Ortega P & Hijos Parking Lot. We parked here to visit the (well se-up) Panama Hat museum but asked the guard: yes you can camp here for the night, which might be a nice option for you (2500 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -2.89103, -78.99304
Ingapirca. Camped in the parking lot. Has a guard + one bathroom open for the night. Quiet place (3150 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -2.54097, -78.87226
|Laguna Atillo
Lagunas Atillo. Rough camped along the side of the road, but out of view from the road, and with a stunning view of the lake. Beautiful place to camp, very quiet too as the brand-new, asphalted road is hardly used (3488 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -2.18775, -78.52048
Puyo, 6 kms south of town (village called Vera Cruz). Stayed on the premises of somebody's house, who was kind enough to let us camp there + use the toilet and shower (Raquel and Angelica). In return we bought a bottle of aguardiente from them (966 mtrs, Jan '14).
gps: -1.50787, -77.94405

How to Choose the Best Pets for Kids
Kids love pet animals and pet animals love kids. Ideally, as your toddlers begin to grow, they already have companions by their side. Of course, apart from they should have a little brother or sister, they ought to have a pet by their side. Pet animals such as dogs and cats should be brought into the house at an early age. That way, both the animal and the toddler grow together, and that creates a pretty powerful bond. Mind you, opting for just the right pet, or indeed the best pets for kids, isn't as difficult as it sounds. There are, however, a few things to consider before deciding on the best friend for your little one.
Here are the main categories of the best pets for kids, you should definitely consider:
– Dogs
– Cats
– Reptiles (Turtles and such)
– Rodents (Hamsters and such)
– Birds
– Fish
Fish Pets
Yep, goldfish, and the like; you just can't go wrong with that. Fish pets are basically the easiest and quickest way to keep your kids happy and to help them learn what it means to really, really look after a living, breathing organism. It's less difficult, and less expensive than taking care of any feline or canine, and it doesn't require you to take them outside. It basically brings nearly all the joy of having a pet, with minimum hassle.
Dog Pets
Kids love dogs, and dogs adore kids – that's just a fact. Now, a dog is practically considered to be an additional family member, and that can be the biggest obstacle for most parents. In addition to that, certain types of dogs are not suitable for toddlers. So, before adopting a dog, you must check the breed, and if the dog itself is well-socialized and comfortable around kids. All the while, it must be said that any dog involves commitment. Pups must have daily exercise, veterinary checkups and immunizations. Moreover, they need attention and love. Some of the more kid-friendly dogs are: boxers, golden retrievers, labrador retrievers, beagles and so on.
Cat Pets
Cats are cool. They are cool as animals, they are cool as pets. They are well-known for their independence. Happily, they denote a lot less care and attention than pups. But don't get carried away, because cats also require immunizations and frequent veterinary checkups. Getting a cat is a great options if you have restricted living space. Cats also mean you need to go through the process of finding a suitable one that's okay to be around children.
Reptile Pets
No, we're not talking about snakes or lizards (those should be avoided as pets for kids). In this case, you are on the lookout for more docile creatures, and animals like the plant-eating Russian tortoise is a great companion, and unlike most pets, it can grow to the ripe old age of 50. One of the greatest things about reptiles is that they are nonallergenic. There is a word of caution here: AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) notes that reptiles are the ideal pet for kids because they can easily transmit salmonella. So, yeah there are certain specific care requirements reptile pets.
Rodent Pets
No, it's not rats. This category includes little pals like guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils, all of which are very straightforward to raise. And it's yet another species that doesn't take up a lot of room in your living space. Important note: if they are handled gently, they take it as a sign of friendship. On the other hand, possible bites may occur if the rodent feels threatened in any way. Still, both hamsters and guinea pigs are intelligent, and they prefer human companionship.
Bird Pets
Loud and cute: kind of like your kids 😉 Of course, birds are always a great option when you're search for the coolest pets for kids. It must be said though, that birds require more commitment than a fish or such. In fact, every birds require nearly daily attention. The awesome thing is that these are very social animals, they are not expensive and are generally a good starter pet for kids.

Are you a TAXPAYER?!? Are you willing to have your government conceal the animals they have stolen from their rightful owners-YOUR NEIGHBORS!!! This makes me sick especially considering the untrue story and cover-up these people did to steal very valuable animals from their owners with the creation of an outrageous law and taking away of civil liberties that all Americans are entitled to: Life, Liberty and Property…
State Won't Identify Animals In Exotics Facility
REYNOLDSBURG, Ohio – The state says officials won't release to the general public the types of animals being held at Ohio's new holding facility for exotic creatures.
The Ohio Department of Agriculture director says the state is just as concerned about making sure animals don't get out as making sure nobody gets in to access the animals.
Director David Daniels says local police and emergency first responders will be notified. He says it would be too difficult to make such notifications to neighbors.
Daniels allowed reporters to tour the facility in suburban Reynoldsburg east of Columbus on Thursday to help assure the public the facility is safe.
State veterinarian Tony Forshey emphasized the building is not a zoo but more along the lines of a temporary humane society facility.

"State veterinarian Tony Forshey emphasized the building is not a zoo but more along the lines of a temporary humane society facility." This gives rise to extreme alarm!!! How many animals will be imprisoned at this facility?!? Tortured and/or euthanized?!? Cover up that started withnthe death of Terry Thompsn and the slaughter of his animals. Demand accountability!!!

text: GroupFull judgment IN THE INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS COURT OF MALAWI PRINCIPAL REGISTRY MATTER NO. IRC 334 OF 2002 BETWEEN TAUMBE . ...APPLICANT -and- CHINESE ENGINEERING & FURNITURE . ..RESPONDENT CORAM: R. Zibelu Banda (Ms);Chairperson Ngwangwa; Sales Representative for the Respondent Applicant; present Chinkudzu; Official Interpreter JUDGMENT Dismissal- Reason-Resignation-Constructive dismissal Constructive dismissal-Onus on employee to show that the employer breached fundamental term of contract Upon hearing the applicant and the respondent the court finds that the applicant resigned from his job after he failed to cope with the workload assigned to him. The applicant was unskilled labourer. He was working in the factory. At the material time he was assigned to work at a building site where he found work too heavy for him. He complained and asked for reduced workload but he was not assisted. He decided to resign. The applicant claimed that this was unfair dismissal. In response the respondent stated that the assignment from one section to another was routine and many more workers were assigned such jobs. At the time that the applicant was assigned to the building site he was not the only one. He resigned while the others did not resign but continued to work. The Issue Was this constructive dismissal in terms of the law? The Law An employee can claim that his resignation was not of his own volition but was forced due to unreasonable conduct of the employer. Where the employer breaches a fundamental term of the contract, an employee is entitled to repudiate the contract. The burden is on the employee to show that a fundamental term of contract was breached by the employer, which made the continuation of the employment contract unreasonable, see section 61(3) of the Employment Act. Where an employee proves on a balance of probabilities that the dismissal is in fact constructive dismissal, the Court must find that the dismissal is unfair, see section 58 of the Act. The dismissal is not automatically unfair just because the employee resigned for some reason. The Court must still find whether the dismissal was fair or unfair. At that point it becomes the employers duty to show the reason for the conduct which entitled the employee to terminate the contract, see, Berriman V Delabole Slate [1985] ICR 546. In assessing the facts of this case, the court was not convinced that the employers conduct was so unreasonable that the conduct could be construed as a breach of contract. This is so because the applicant was unskilled worker; he did not have any special acquired skills therefore he could be assigned to perform any work that did not require any skills. The applicant was not the only employee assigned to this work; there were other employees who had no problems with the work. There was a rotation system to work to and fro the building site therefore this action by the employer was not inconsistent with its normal operations. Finding This court does not find any compelling reasons to find for the employee in this case. This action is therefore dismissed in its entirety. Any party aggrieved by this decision has the right of appeal to the High Court within 30 days of this decision. Appeal lies only on matters of law and jurisdiction and not facts: Section 65 (2) of the Labour Relations Act. Pronounced this 13th February 2007 at BLANTYRE. Rachel Zibelu Banda CHAIRPERSON.

Petition Seeks to Reverse NOAA Weather Chart Alterations
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has enacted two changes that degrade the amount of information available on the meteorological charts used by mariners to help forecast potential weather conditions while at sea and chart safe routes for their vessels. There is now an active White House petition opposing these changes.
The first NOAA change eliminates past tracking information for all high- and low-pressure systems and would only include future forecast tracks on low-pressure systems that are deemed to have hazards associated with them. More information regarding this change is available online [https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/pdfs/pns17-17surface-analysis.pdf].
NOAA also enacted changes to the 500mb chart, switching to a fully automated system that doesn't provide complete representation of what is happening in the upper atmosphere. Removing the human element has caused vital information to be deleted. For years, mariners have found all the information contained in 500mb and other meteorological charts to be valuable in safely forecasting and navigating at sea. More information regarding this change is available online [https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/pdfs/pns17-26opc_500mb.pdf].
NOAA's changes went into effect in the summer of 2017. The problems with these changes were recently raised by American Maritime Officers members who were training at STAR Center and wondered why they had not received direct notification. The concerned mariners, along with STAR Center personnel, have since spearheaded a petition drive to have the changes to the charts reversed.
The petition can be viewed and signed online at https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/petition-changes-made-noaas-opcs-graphical-products.
Another aim of the petition is to require NOAA and other government entities with maritime jurisdiction to give adequate opportunity for input from mariners on matters that directly impact how they perform their duties.
Following is the language of the petition objecting to the NOAA changes:
"We/I the undersigned, offer our name(s)/signature(s) to strongly oppose the changes made by NOAA's Ocean Prediction Center's synoptic scale meteorological and oceanographic charts that they imposed on the maritime industry. These alterations of removing critically important information that were originally stakeholder driven and in place for decades, now unnecessarily jeopardizes mariners' safety. We/I further believe that these unwarranted changes put mariners at risk for misinterpretation of the true meteorological and oceanographic picture, especially those mariners engaged in commerce. NOAA's OPC implemented the downgrading of certain products without proper vetting and seeking out consensus solutions, thus not giving the mariner a voice."
The products and services herein described in this press release are not endorsed by The Maritime Executive.

The KBS spy action drama "Iris" team films explosion and gun-fighting scenes yesterday on the roads in front of the Sejong Center for Performing Arts in central Seoul. The roads, near which the Central Government Complex and the U.S. Embassy are located, were blocked for 12 hours from 7 a.m. during the shooting of the TV drama. [YONHAP]
Actually, I did go that square, the location of the drama(Iris) last month!
So this time I'll show you what the 광화문광장(Gwanghwamun Square
) is!
This is me with expressionless face 🙂 I think i just so tired and blanked that day..
but the water of the fountain behind me was so beautiful!
It is said that It is brilliantly illuminated at night~
The statue in this pic is King Sejong!
King Sejong created Hangeul (한글-The Korean alphabet) and he is one of the best heroes of Korea!
It is said that 한글 was designated as National Treasure in UNESCO's Memory of the world. I'm so proud of that ~
Are you able to guess what the green-something is?
Its name is hATCHI ! Hatchi is the symbolic character of Seoul!
Actually hatchi is much prettier than that -_- …!
CUTE and HOT character Right? 🙂

Black Friday is approaching and retailers will be keen to maximise sales with highly targeted advertising throughout the weekend-long bargain fest.
That will make it an equally busy time for Location Sciences Group PLC (LON:LSAI).
WATCH: Location Sciences Group offering new 'Verify' solution to tackle advertising fraud
The AIM-listed business has built a platform that gives advertisers a whole range of data on how effective an ad has been in getting people into shops.
Products cover out of home ads (posters), digital promotions on smartphones and tablets, raw data on consumer movements or reports with insights and analysis.
Kitchen maker Wren, for example, uses it to link footfall at its stores with its marketing activity.
Wren was one of the first high street names to sign for the platform.
In October, location planning giant CACI also signed a twelve-month contract to help clients find the best sites for new premises.
Agencies, too, are using the platform.
Talon, the UK's largest out-of-home/ poster ad planning agency, has just agreed on a two-year contract.
Data crunch
Mark Slade, Location Sciences' chief executive, says it is at the cutting edge of the location data and insights industry, something which would not have been possible 3-4 years ago due to the prohibitive cost of processing data.
But with cloud-based servers and virtual networks, those costs have tumbled.
Location Sciences' platform analyses the location of millions of people through their mobile phones and crunches the data through cloud-based servers.
Next time you download an app and are asked permission for your position to be recorded, that is the information Location Sciences uses for its services.
Consent has to be given by the individual, hence the prompt, but in return, an app can usually be downloaded for free.
Location Sciences will pay the app owner for the information, which is then analysed and supplied to the advertiser or agency.
Thirty billion datapoints
At present, Location Sciences has thirty billion data points it can access and is adding two billion more every month from 5.3mln mobile phones.
That requires some serious number-crunching and Slade says artificial intelligence is at the heart of what it does.
"Our business is a combination of big data, processing power, analytics and machine learning/artificial intelligence," he says.
Indeed, the newness of the business means Location Sciences is probably the UK market leader, says Slade though he admits the whole concept is still in the fledgeling stages.
Identifying ad fraud
Slade, though, has global ambitions, not least for the Verify product that was launched in May.
This is designed to tackle the thorny issues of advertising fraud, which has burgeoned with growth in mobile phones and digital adverts.
Click-farms and bots to boost viewers among the most common forms and all told fraud is costing the industry US$50mln per day.
Verify uses machine learning and pattern recognition to detect instances of location fraud.
The product is a highly scalable platform with the potential for the global application that can be a real success and have a dramatic impact on revenues and profitability, Slade believes.
Sales on the up
Although the location data was part of the former Proxama, Location Sciences PLC is, in essence, a start-up and revenues are growing rapidly.
At September, the run rate was £70,000 per month with a target of £702,000 pencilled in for the full year.
Hitting that target will depend on how the Black Friday and Christmas periods pan out, but next year market forecasts are for surge upwards to more than £2.2mln.
After all the troubles that accompanied Proxama in recent years, some caution by investors is perhaps understandable.
Slade, though, says the disposal of most of that business has put it back on an even keel and if the growth comes through as he expects, a re-rating would seem inevitable.
The share price is a modest 0.24p, which values the group at about £5mln or just 2.3 times expected sales in 2019.
Big data in location space
A consolidation has been proposed to give the share price a more sensible base, a suggestion that presumably came from the experienced board, which includes CFO David Rae who has built and sold numerous businesses.
Location Sciences raised £412,000 for the launch of Verify but if the plans pan out as planned raising more should not be an issue.
Slade stays away from using artificial intelligence to describe what it does – "The buzzword at present" - but concedes it is the bedrock of the business.
"We are a real big data business in the location space."


text: Although Net Neutrality – or its repeal if certain somebodies get their way – is an issue that affects everyone, not everyone is clued in to what it actually means. Enter Burger King's faux "social experiment" that explains Net Neutrality with a currency everyone understands: the Whopper sandwich. Want a Whopper for the regular price of $4.99? Fine but you'll have to get a "slow-access Whopper pass" and wait in the slow lane for up to 20 minutes. But no worries, if you're in a hurry you can still have it in a few minutes – it'll just cost you $26. This is the best explainer video I've seen in a long time.

Going to the hospital is never a pleasant experience for anyone. But, in life often times, family and societal obligations necessitate that people need to do just that. Of course, children are brought out of both necessity and for a sense of a teaching moment to be sure. Probably the first bit of information given to a complaining child about going to a hospital to visit a relative is the standard, "Well, just be glad it's not you that's stuck in the hospital sick with no one to visit you!" Or maybe, "Well, one day you might find yourself sick in a hospital and you'll be so happy and relived if someone comes to visit you."
Yes, these are life moments that we all go through at some point. Moreover, hospitals certainly have it tough. First you have an institution charged with healing people, caring for them, welcoming visitors, and handling the delicate balancing act of trying to bill and pay for everything at the same time.
Given all of this, I wonder why people come away with such a bad impression of hospitals in general. It's almost like they are scared of them or something. After it's all explained by a parent, why would a child ever find a hospital scary?
