Friction is a process used to whiten brown rice. In the friction rice whitener the grain kernels are forced against each other and a metal screen by a steel-ribbed cylinder rotating inside a metal plated cylinder. The frictional forces created between individual rice grains and between the grains and the metal screen surface remove the bran layer from the grain. Friction polishers are always horizontal in design and apply more pressure on the grain than an abrasive whitener.

The whitening chamber is the enclosed space formed by the whitening screen and the whitening roll. The whitening screen is made up of 3 separate triangular perforated hardened steel plates which are clamped at both ends. Due to the presence of the vertical iron supports on these plates, the screen that is formed is a nonagon with unequal sides. The upper portion of the screen set up is linked to a spring system which makes it possible to be mobile.

High yielding cultivars and use of advanced methods of harvesting, threshing, milling, and storage help in alleviating postharvest losses and improve crop output. Cultivar, crop management practices, time of harvesting, postharvest handling, drying techniques, and milling methods are among a few major factors responsible for improving cooking quality of rice. Mechanical harvesting of crop at 20–26 % moisture levels followed by automated drying, pneumatic husking, and grain whitening through horizontal frictional whiteners are considered to be the best processing techniques that impart good cooking and milling qualities to the rice. In resource constrained and developing economies, adoption of advanced processing techniques to improve postharvest quality of rice is compromised on account of farmers’ illiteracy, low acreage, and poor access to the agricultural inputs. It may be compensated through capacity building and training of the stakeholders with the assistance of developed countries.

Integrated professional technology and actual production practice in domestic rice milling plant, rice polisher is designed and developed to be both economic and making rice become lucent and white. It is not only applied to be single processing machine for rice milling plant, but also used for multistep slight polishing with several machines.

You can't win if you don't play... and last week the jackpot rolled up to $680 million.
Reports last night claimed the jackpot exceeded $1.6 BILLION making it the largest jackpot in the US lottery history!
Sure, I put $5 in with 30 coworkers in a chance to retire with more money than I could imagine. The girl who made the transactions for us mandated that if we hit the jackpot ALL of us have to show up Monday to decide which tour bus we will hire to go claim the prize money.

No one called or texted.
No jackpot winner either...
Maybe next week.

Swatting as in being swatted is when someone calls the police falsely stating a crime was committed at the address of another person... in this case it's Georgia representative, Marjorie Taylor Greene. On Christmas day, with family attending her party, crisis hotline received several calls requesting emergency services giving out her address.

This is not the first time it's happened to Greene. On X / Twitter, she stated it was the 8th time!
So Merry Christmas to MTG as it made someone else merry too!

You re presented with a legal document, to sign:

You spot a slight error, scrambling the whole contract

Do you tell or not...?

...indeed. I play the lottery as follows. But with no other gambling habits. About a dollar weekly, and my small winnings so far yield about half back. Not all that different, allegedly, for the slots and tables.
Now, the liberal politicians in all States here, claimed that much would go to education, decades ago, when all began state lotteries. Over time, it seems that only Georgia hasn't lied about this. For the rest, I'm told, it all goes into the general fund. Mostly then simply pissed away. But at least some small amount goes to government schools. Which under teachers' unions do much the same. Digressing
I've been doing so since a long term tenant in one of the family estate rentals won the one million jackpot. A nicer bloke you'd never meet. Factory worker. Decent and humble.
So as tiny as the struck by lightning chances for a big win may be, if it comes, I can stop being a dilettante at my charity giving. As evidenced by plenty.

Looking to earn a bit extra for an expensive time of year? Don't get caught the way one woman was. She bought an iPad on eBay, good price, was very pleased with it, and the dealer asked if she would be interested in selling some on commission for him. Ooh yes - she sold 20 pretty briskly, deducted her commission, sent him the money, lovely jubbly.

Then the buyers started saying where is my iPad?

eBay protects its buyers, so they took the whole price back from her paypal account. She cannot, big surprise, get in touch with the dealer, and his bank account has been closed. She has been financially wiped out.

Lots of scams around.

You play white. "Do you feel lucky...... ?"

What is the best single chess move you can make in the position shown below ?
It leads to checkmate of the black king a couple of moves later.





The chess notation is, that the location of the lower left space is a1, and the space just
to the right of a1, is b1.
Thus, the highest right corner on the board is space h8.

K = King
Q = Queen
R = Rook
B = Bishop
N = Knight
P = Pawn

So, one could move the Pawn in front of your king (Ph3) to the h4 space as
1. P h3 - h4, as your first move. But, there is a much better move.
What is the best one ?

The first one to state it, wins the challenge.

Every 4th of July, Nathan's Famous (company) sponsors a hotdog eating contest in Coney Island. This year added masks. Defending his throne, Joey Chestnut gobbled down 75 hotdogs breaking his record of 71 from last year making 13 years of competitive wins. Second-place fell short of Joey by 30 hotdogs.

Congrats to Kiki Sudo who took first place again in the women's division by wolfing down 48 'dogs' making it her 7th win!

Mega Millions Lottery Jackpot is up to $850 million with the drawing Tuesday, January 19, 2021.

This is the third largest jackpot in lottery history.

I used to work at a place with about 50 employees and whenever the jackpot was high they would pool their monies and buy a stack of tickets. We used to talk about renting a tour bus to ride to the capitol to collect our winnings. That never happened.

5 bucks to get in on the lottery pool... It's nearly a year since I worked there and I suppose if I asked, they would let me get in on the action!
