I was recently on Skype....the first time in many years. I had to download the program and make a new account. Anyway, after a few days of using it, it froze up on me. I had to restart my computer and when it was restarted, a pop-up box came up saying that another computer with the same ISP was connected.

I wrote down the exact message....but I cannot find it right now. I decided to uninstall Skype and the box has not popped up since. Is this anything to be concerned about? I am technology stupid. :(

Conventionally, wheat is milled in paddy separator which simultaneously remove outer bran layers and germ from the wheat kernel or berry and reduce the size of the starchy endosperm. A typical paddy separator will include a sequence of counter rotating opposed rollers which progressively break the wheat into smaller and smaller sizes. The output from each pair of rollers is sorted into multiple streams, typically by means of sifters and purifiers, to separate the bran and germ from the endosperm, and to direct coarser and finer fractions of the endosperm to appropriate rollers.

The prepared grain sample flows through an adjustable feed gate over the feed roll to the first pair of break rolls and from there, without intermediate sifting, to the second pair of break rolls. Subsequently, the material goes directly to the reduction section. Here, the second roll of the second break head operates against the fine corrugated roll of the reduction section. The closed grinding process with extremely small roll diameters and the resulting short grinding zone, together with the self-grinding effect of the grain particles among each other, ensure maximum separation of the endosperm. The short grinding process corresponding to the elasticity of the bran prevents splitting up of the bran. After having passed the last pair of rolls, the material drops into the round sifter.

Practical implications grain structure relate to every step from grain development and production through market ing to processing, utiliza-tion, and consumption. The structure and adherence of the hulls may contribute to protection of grain during germination or malting and protection against insect infestations. Germ retention during thresh-ing and separation during processing depend on the germ structure and location in the kernel. The subaleurone and central endosperm layers differ in cell size , shape, and structure and in composition, especially with regard to protein contents and quality. The main factors in grain hardness are the intrinsic hardness of the main components, the strength of interaction within the cell, and the interaction of individual cells to produce overall grain structure.

The husking performance of different paddy husker was compared for changes in the applied normal load. It was found that grains rotate between the rubber counterfaces on initial motion before being husked. In addition, harder rubbers were found to husk a higher proportion of entrained grains at lower applied normal load. By measuring the coefficient of friction between rice and rubber samples, the shear force required to husk a given percentage of grains could be calculated and was shown to be constant regardless of rubber type. Based on the mechanism seen in the high-speed video, it was evident that there was a limiting shear stress that was the governing factor over the husked ratio.

Paddy cleaner is used for removing various large, small and light foreign objects from grain. Uses a vibration motor as the vibration source and has stable operation and high reliability. Even sealing to prevent dust overflow results in a good operational environment. Having compact structure, low noise and low power consumption.

The color sorter are used in the wheat cleaning to remove ergot wheat, black tip, fusarium, burnt, other discolored grains and other inner contaminants. Today’s advanced color sorters are robust, compact, requires less maintenance and consumes very little energy. The color sorting has come of age and should be considered for inclusion in any modern wheat cleaning plant. Optical sorters are taking the place of traditional disc and indented separators in the wheat milling process.

Under the strict supervision of our experienced professionals, we are offering a wide collection of paddy cleaner. It is provided with rotary drum for removing straw and oversize impurities. Our offered cleaner is available in a variety of sizes and other such specifications to choose from. The cleaner offered by us is precisely designed at our highly advanced manufacturing unit following industry defined guidelines.

Rice destoner removes stone using a series of webs (between two and five webs). The stones stay on the web and the clay falls through it. The stones travel through the machine and the bigger stones fall into a boulder box and the smaller stones fall onto a cross conveyor and in turn fall into a trench. On the next pass the tractor tramps these stones down.

China-zjlg has 20 years of experience in this field. We know what you want, welcome to leave a message:

You know - like that legendary T.V. guy who can make/fix anything with nothing but a hairpin.

My house was built circa 1890.
Many of the fixtures are original - 125 years old.

A while ago, an original door lock went hawire.
I figured it was busted, so taking it apart couldn't hurt...what the hell, I might even be able to fix it.
Also, I'm rather fond of old things & like to keep them functioning.

A flat spring in the mechanism had broken.
I figured going to a hardware store asking for a spring for an antique lock would result in...
So I laid it aside for the time being.



A few days ago, I figured I might be able to cobble in a spring from a ballpoint pen.
Rummaging through an odds 'n ends bin, I found (are y'all ready for this?)
a...HAIRPIN!
Yes. Really!!

I figured it was just springy enough, and exactly the right size to snip & bend into a suitable flat spring.

VOILA!

Yep.
It fit just like it was custom made for the mechanism...which I guess it was, come to think 'bout it.

As long as it was disassembled, I also oiled up the whole mechanism.
It now works like everything's moving on jeweled bearings...far(!) smoother than it ever did since I've owned it...probably smoother than it has in fifty years.
Maybe a hundred years, even.

Pretty cool, huh?

America made a poor attempt to convert to metric in the 1970's and with the exception of tools and some engineered products, we switched back to the imperial system learned from England.
Last time I checked, America, Liberia and Myanmar were the only countries still measuring by feet and weighing by pounds. Thanks England for abandoning us!
It's time to set the record books straight.

Let's start with the 1967 song 98.6 by Keith.

From now it's "Hey 37C, it's good to have you back again... Oh hey 37C, her lovin' is the medicine that saved me..."

Carbon emissions may play a part in the environment but is not ultimately the heart of the issue.
Heat emissions is the core here's why:
The heat of a regular gasoline car is up to 1400 degrees Fahrenheit or 760 degrees Celsius

Apply this heat emissions on the Highway 401 in Toronto America
Or Dan Ryan Expressway through Chicago on a daily basis.
Also apply this to factories whose heat emissions are equally high you have current practical idea of what is affecting climate change

The morning heat of the sun creates fog which lowers the moisture content from the soil that same fog rises and becomes clouds. But the most important factor is lowering moisture content in the soil. But radiant heat can not achieve this if it is affected by convective heat and if the soil has prolonged moisture content it will begin to crate water mold on a molecular level.

This is a war of convective heat versus radiant heat on a global scale day to day.

But also this creates an unbalance of natural weather cycles because the moisture content if ever is dissipating at a later time during the day due to the high levels of convective heat.


However this is solvable and a business here in Whanganui has created a solution of lowering heat emissions by 99% called TPE Racing. Owner David Tunnell.

You could apply this to computers where u will no longer need fans or water coolant systems to cool cpu hard drives gpu motherboards etc or even large computer systems the amount of savings u would make would be substantial.

Within the last year or so a lot of the social media "clowns" decided they had sucked enough of the economic lifeblood from their customers worldwide,exploited their home countries economic opportunity to the hilt and......ALARMINGLY, have decided to enter into an incestuous relationship with our sworn enemy China for God only knows what advantage they can gain only to sharply tilt the dynamic and thereby seriously threaten our National Security! Set aside,for a moment,the militarily strategic position this decision could shape for the US in the future and focus on the blatantly TURNCOAT aspect these SCUM have demonstrated to their home country. They all were allowed tax incentives,loans,the ability to pick from the finest technological talent available to start their companies in the friendliest economic environment on earth to achieve all they now have! By way of thanks they figuratively give the finger to every single customer that ennabled them to prosper! We are currently in a situation where every single opinion,political stance and ideaology they disagree with is heavily CENSORED, they ASSUME to decide who thrives economically online etc...... This is TOTALLY unacceptable and I would humbly submit that after the first High Profile lawsuit,hopefully followed by many others,along with heavy and very SEVERE Government regulation these unappreciative,treasonous,traitorous lowlifes will be properly brought to bear! If not,I don't care how Congress and DOJ go about it but I honestly believe there is sufficient grounds to,under the auspices of National Security,Seize,(by any means available,these peoples considerable wealth,revoke their citizenship and EXPORT their asses to whatever communist country they aspire to!

Now that millions of people are home under lockdown, it's safe to say the internet is on bandwidth overload. Many sites cannot handle the amount of increased traffic. I heard (on local radio) some streaming services (like Netflix) will be limiting/restricting their High Definition signals during peak hours.

I usually obsess on YouTube during the weekends and noticed EVERY video I clicked had an error message that required a second try to get the video to play. High bandwidth problems is suspected.

It took several tries to logon to CS this morning as I received HTTP Error 503.2 - Service Unavailable and a few errors while navigating around the site.

A friend who is a regular at the county park where we fly model aircraft said ALL the parks are now closed. One of the local flying clubs website stated local and regional parks are closed until further notice! The field video camera confirmed no cars in the lot and the airstrip is devoid of pilots.

My plan was to catch a few helicopter flights in the schoolyard, but someone told me under city lockdown I could be jailed and/or fined. No one around me for 200 yards... I promise to wear an N95 mask.

I recently replaced my Nokia Express Music with a Sony Xperia. I liked the Nokia; it served me well but it was grossly behind times.

Mastering the Android system took a day or two and at one stage it had me so consumed that I though I would not bother about my laptop anymore. It opened a new world to me and I spent hours installing new apps and reading books on-line. I loved the way you can restore it to factory setting and start all over again. Wonderful, I thought… until I tried to do some serious browsing. That was when I lost half my interest in it.

When I logged on to CS, the other half went. Sorry, I got too used to the bigger screen and a proper keyboard. I tried to comment on somebody’s blog and half way I gave it up for a bad job. My fingers are too dumb for the small keys on the screen and what I did not misspell, the auto-correct function messed up; in stead of just leaving the good words while correcting my mistakes! Back to my faithful old laptop.

I know a lot of people here use their mobiles on CS and they are probably pretty happy with it, but I did not make it; though I still enjoy reading ebooks with it. Maybe I should have gotten a tablet instead but they are too large and clumsy. After all, I just wanted a new phone; one that can slip into my shirt or jacket’s pocket.

Not that I’m unhappy with the phone. On the contrary, I like it very much. I even use the calendar; something I have never used before. I have Whatsapp going and I’m thinking about installing Skype, even though I don’t like apps like that. Too many people troubling me. I don’t have the patience to sit and text all day.

I have a problem though. I cannot get any memory card to work in it. I checked on the web and it seems to be a general issue with the Xperia. If somebody here got a memory card to work in it, please let me know what make it is.

Have a great day, will ya!
