e-Kanban by Datacraft Solutions replaces Paper for Pacific Scientific HTL

Posted at October 31, 2008 by admin

After a year and a half of using the paper fax release system, it was clear that it simply didn’t scale for PS/HTL’s 100-plus suppliers, more than 100 fax numbers over 3500 parts on kanban, and 2000 signals sent each month. With numerous points of possible failure–did a fax get sent? Was it received? Was it legible? Was it acted on?–the system encouraged inefficient behavior all around.

A key component of Pacific Scientific HTL, an internationally renowned maker of aerospace safety equipment and military defense hardware, lean journey was to institute a kanban system that would govern the flow of materials from their suppliers and through their facility. While visual cues governed their internal production kanban system, fax releases signaled their suppliers.

A 20-minute webcast demonstration of Datacraft Solutions’ e-kanban product had alerted PS/HTL’s Purchasing Manager Cari Gintz to a system that aligned perfectly with what PS/HTL needed: a system that was easy to learn and use for buyers, planners, and suppliers, and visible enough that everyone involved could do their jobs without constant confusion and supply worries cutting into productivity. Clearly PS/HTL needed a way out of the paper fax morass and into some kind of controlled, electronic kanban system. Gintz says, “What led us to decide to go electronic kanban, was sheer frustration and the need to start managing instead of reacting.”

Datacraft Solutions and Gintz approached their work together as a project with measurable goals and a clear, phased implementation strategy. These were some of the specific goals PS/HTL targeted:

* Be assured of getting what’s ordered, and only what’s ordered, at the expected date * Handle the unpredictable–spikes in demand and other exceptions–predictably * Get a clear picture of the health of every cell and kanban at any time * Automatically calculate expected-on-dock delivery dates based on replenishment lead times * Rapidly bring suppliers on board and provide them visibility of the kanbans they support * Shorten replenishment times based on true schedules rather than one-size-fits-all guesswork * Evaluate and motivate supplier performance based on accurate tracking of delivery times and quantities

Registry Cleaner: Protection for Your PC

Posted at October 30, 2008 by admin

Your personal computer saves all the processes that are happening within it. The operating system has its own log of these programs running, and changes that are happening within it. What is a registry cleaner? First you must understand what a registry is. A registry is an applet within your compendium pack of an operating system. Within the term itself registry registers the processes that take place. It also takes note of the automatic processes that are happening in your PC and are running in the background. Think of the registry as a big notebook of your PCs to-do list and it logs everything into it.

Why a registry cleaner important? Registry cleaners are important because it protects your PC from other processes that are not considered viruses, but can be harmful to your PC. Is your computer slowing down without your knowledge? Are you having errors that are not distinguished by your anti-virus program? Your PC might be affected by applications that are running without your knowledge. Registry cleaners are a must!

Your PC might be inflicted by Adwares, Spywares and Spambots. In addition, your registry might be littered with logs that commands your PC to execute these files. A registry cleaner is needed to clean some of these programs. Registry cleaners detect errors in your PC. Registry cleaners help your PC function properly and registry cleaners detect errors, and deletes and/or fixes them. For your PC to function in its optimum performance, you must have a registry cleaner. The basic programs that your PC should have in order to function properly should be: anti-virus software, firewall, anti-spam, and a good registry cleaner.

When your PC suddenly has a mind of its own, it might have caught a Spyware, or an Adware from the internet. Spywares and adwares are small programs that download themselves from the internet to your PC. They affect your PCs registry and a registry cleaner can possibly fix the errors that they cause. Spywares monitor your PCs activity?the programs running, registry information, websites visited. Adwares are annoying pop-ups and spam mails. Registry cleaners often block these from proliferating in your PC. These programs are not considered virus by your anti-virus, but it tinkers your PCs registry, and sometimes cause errors.

A registry cleaner fixes bugs or errors that are inherent in your PC. If you don’t have a registry cleaner, your PC will function at a slower rate. Also, without a registry cleaner, a PC will be inflicted with many annoying programs that run on the background. A registry cleaner scans, identifies and fixes the bugs that are contained in your operating system’s registry. Some of the bugs in your PC are actually from other programs that you have installed. Sometimes, your PC is running programs that are non-existent anymore. Installation and uninstallation processes also affect your PC’s performance. Registry cleaners also deal with these errors. Sometimes, files are corrupted when you uninstall. Some PCs even restart on their own, behaving erratically and uncontrollable. If you have these problems, you need a registry cleaner.

Registry cleaners are softwares. You can download free registry cleaners in the internet. But it is advisable to buy a licensed registry cleaner because it offers better technical support. Crashes are inevitable without registry cleaners. Losing all your data, or having a corrupted program is a nightmare, so be wise, have a registry cleaner!Your personal computer saves all the processes that are happening within it.

Nintendo Revolution Price

Posted at October 29, 2008 by admin

While on my constant search for new Nintendo Revolution information, I came across some articles speculating the European release date and price tag for Nintendo’s next generation gaming console. Of course, this is only a “rumor,” and I have not confirmed the date, or the price in any official capacity.

Amazon France has slipped a page with the European release date and price for Nintendo’s monumental new game console, the Nintendo Revolution.

The tentative release date is listed as June 15, 2006. The total cost after conversion to US dollars, would be approximately $365. European game console prices tend to be a bit priced a higher than in North America, but this still sounds a bit overpriced given the Xbox’s $299-$399 price tag. From what we know so far the Nintendo Revolution will be less technologically advanced than the xbox 360 or Playstation 3.

Based on the GameCube’s 2001 launch cycle–it arrived in Europe six months after it debuted in North America. This leak gives credence to rumors that the Revolution could see a surprise 2005 launch in Canada and the US.

Of course, when more “official” information is available for both the release date and price, htt://www.nintendorevolution.ca will let you know.

For more great gaming information, check out this great Xbox News site or check out this great Nintendo Revolution resources http://www.nintendorevolution.ca

The Technologies That Run Tracking Devices

Posted at October 28, 2008 by admin

Tracking devices, also called 6-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) devices, are defined as technological tools that are used to observe a specific person’s movements by the use of a transmitter to relay radio signals back to a receiver which then enables one to pinpoint the exact location of that particular person.

Global Positioning Satellite, homing devices and cell phones are part of the tracking device technology, and they have all very useful purposes.

GPS, for instance, enables car drivers to have a knowledgeable virtual “companion” that can give out directions and help you be located by the proper authorities if and when you’ve gotten into an accident.

As a corollary, this technology can also be implanted on very important persons just in case they go missing or worse, kidnapped, and need to be found pronto. In fact, even non-celebrities are afforded this option.

In Mexico, for instance, senior staff of a company is required to have these chips as kidnapping is on the rise on that country.

On a more practical note, rental car companies like Payless have incorporated this type of technology on their cars so that they could tell when renters are crossing into forbidden states.

The guilty parties can be assured of an extra $1 charge for every mile driven on non-permissible states. The costs of these devices and their maintenance can vary greatly.

So we all know what tracking devices are and what they could do. But what exactly makes them tick? Such devices are based on electromagnetic, acoustic, mechanical or optical technology.

Mechanical tracking devices can measure orientation and position with the use of a direct mechanical connection between a reference point and the target. The advantage of this type of gadget is that they are accurate and their lag is short. The main drawback is that the operator’s motion is limited to the mechanical arm.

Optical tracking devices use the information contained in the projection of the LED’s to identify the position and orientation of the head.

There come in two kinds: in the first one, cameras are placed on top of HMD’s while a set of infrared LED’s are placed above the head at specific locations in a given environment.

The other type has cameras mounted on a fixed frame with fewer LED’s located at known position on the HMD. These types of tracking devices both have high update rates and short lags, although they usually suffer from line of sight problem.

Electromagnetic tracking devices work by measuring the magnetic fields’ strength generated by sending current through three tiny wire coils, placed perpendicular to each other.

These are then implanted in a small unit attached to the entity the system needs to track. These types of devices can track multiple objects simultaneously although they may experience interference with mechanisms that produce magnetic fields of their own.

Acoustic tracking devices employ ultrasonic sound waves that measure the position and orientation of the entity being tracked. This can be done through time-of-flight tracking and phase-coherence tracking.

The first type works by measuring the time needed to take for the sound sent out by transmitters placed on the target to reach sensors located at specific points.

The second type works by measuring the difference in phase between the sound waves produced by a transmitter on the target and those given off by a transmitter at some reference point.

Chapter Seven and 13, Part Three

Posted at by admin

What Happens When You File for Chapter 13?

Similar to a Chapter 7 case, you will file for Chapter 13 by filling out forms describing your income, assets, and debts. You will also fill out a form describing your plan for paying back your debts over the next few years. You will pay a filing fee of about $150 when you file (same for married couples). If you can’t afford the fee, you may be allowed to pay it in installments, but it will not be waived.

Soon after you file, the court will notify you of the meeting of creditors, at which time you will meet with the trustee (not a judge) and any interested creditors. Unsecured creditors rarely attend this meeting, but secured creditors may, especially if they disagree with a value you’ve assigned property. The trustee will go over your papers and ask questions about your plan and the papers you filed.

The same day, or within a few weeks, a confirmation hearing will be set. At this time, the court decides whether to accept the plan, and if so, “rules on confirmation.” Once your bankruptcy plan is confirmed, the trustee will begin payments to your creditors. (You pay the trustee, not your creditors.) During the three years or so, as long as you make your payments, you’re pretty much free to conduct your financial life as you wish.

If you meet the requirements of your plan, your bankruptcy will be discharged and your case closed.

How To Entice People To Your Website

Posted at by admin

People running a small business or website, will probably believe that once a website has been developed and published the website development is accomplished. However, the real work begins from here only. In a move to generate income from a website, potential traffic must be driven to the site. There are many successful techniques to create this web traffic that can be followed as part of a Search Engine Optimization strategy.

While all techniques may not be needed to take in as triumphant. But, some combination of most will certainly be required to generate traffic. Consider realizing these strategies: Good optimized content is required for search engine recognition, and update the site frequently. The search engines takes your website as an active not dead website, when updated regularly. Put in practice to update your website at least, monthly.

The following are some effective techniques you should implement:

* Do little alteration in content from time to time. These help to do regular update website. * Modify contact, staffing and clientele information.

* Make sure that the links are active, and also keep changing the link text frequently that will be considered as a change to the page by search engine.

* Offer RSS feed to public that updated at hourly or daily basis.

* Manage good links that will result in an excellent weight given by the search engines for search positioning.

* Try to publish newsletter weekly, at least monthly.

How to get link popularity? You may find it boring, as it requires careful selection of the links, however, there are many means that can be implemented.

* Reciprocal Links: Find out relevant and websites that desire to exchange trade links. * Anchor text: Create link text using appropriate keywords.

* Consider Page-Rank: Make out a link only with websites that have good Page- Rank (Websites at least having PR of 3).

* Enlist your website with web directories. You may select paid or free directory listings that are profitable to your website.

Keep in mind that developing a site is just beginning. Driving potential traffic to your website is the most significant work to be done. You will not be able taste the sweet fruits of success until you do hard work, spend the time and energy. You may hire someone to get the job done.

Nice offer 30000 dollar at a honorable interest rate of 7.4 percent

Posted at October 26, 2008 by admin

At present you can inquire interest rates quickly at websites and visualize if there are possible traps you should be aware of. Many of the moneylenders wil show you a rate that is looking comely but feels badly or so after some time. 8.5 percent loan rate may look so honest but will that be unvaried after you have to retort your deferred payment. It makes no difference if you live in Greensboro North Carolina or in Carson City Nevada a respectable online check up will economize you often a lot of problems.

Translated it means: Woon je in Gennep of Sint-Michielsgestel en hebt u BKR. Lenen met een BKR notering is nog nooit zo gemakkelijk geweest. Haal snel een nieuwe caravan met lenen met bkr notering, 302882 euro is altijd mogelijk om te financieren. Van Waterland tot Tubbergen, financieren met een BKR notering is hier geen enkel probleem.

Be hopeful today to inspect if you have a special offer or if you don’t with the merchant bank that offers you a loan. That’s the reason why now you need to inquire and get a line if you can have a money loan at a solid percent rate of interest. A bank in Myrtle Beach South Carolina or so can have a total completely different actual rate for a 27500 dollar loan then a moneylender in Knoxville Tennessee and that makes a immense clear difference in your yearly pay offs. Investigate to see if the moneylender who is willing to give you a credit loan is safe.

Mini-Robots, Motherships, Swarm Strategies, Wasps, Ants, Organization and Delivery

Posted at October 25, 2008 by admin

Robots are for every one. Tech TV now host Battle Bots which is a big hit with viewers and draws crowds as big as WFB Wrestling. Many of these people get heavy into the Robot Scene and even occasionally try to impress Military People. Check out some of these Super Heavy Weight Battle Bots, every type of configuration available.

http://www.battlebots.com/superheavyweights.asp

What I find most interesting to these battle bot groups is that they are literally practicing warfare at a micro-level, using flanking maneuvers, military strategy, modern day theories, and theories of nature and hunting. Why are these groups important? Well for one we have seen them as we have seen those who play computer games such as Mech-Warrior and others become as smart at tactics as those being trained in military history strategy and tactics at West point.

When we discuss the use of swarms in battle, we often think of animals, bees, wasps, etc. I think of UAV swarms and taking this to another level these Battle Bots also have been messing around with such ideas, recreating science fiction movies genres and using some pretty interesting calculations and ideas to justify their ideas. We must consider both offense and defensive ideas on this theme. Now we are already on the scene with our DARPA to build swarm ability UAVs. UAV costs for military operations. AeroVironment WASP and the hobbyist; the Q-Butterfly. You might want to google both of those items to learn more.

Should we use the same defenses we use on insect swarms for possible defense on UAV swarms? Well here are some of the things we do to prevent swarms in insects: Killing of Q-Fly and uses of DDT can give us insight as to the level of problem West Nile really is, to eradicate it completely is a huge issue.

http://www.sardi.sa.gov.au/pages/entomolo/…fhistry_no3.pdf

http://www.pc.gov.au/inquiry/citrus/finalr…t/appendixe.pdf

We have had some success with the Mediterranean fruit fly. Here are some of the ground robots created for Battle Bot RoboWars.

http://victorynetwork.net/michael/downloads/notebook.ps

There are hundreds of people thinking about these things day and night all with ideas and trying to better each others efforts and this competition is helping the speed of evolution of this technology.

http://www.aaai.org/AITopics/html/archvC2.html

If you study African Fire ants working together when attacking a larger prey. If you think about it there are thousands of species probably 20,000 species, we have categorized about 10,000 so far. 20,000 species of ants and they are niche specialists and if you weigh them out, they weigh the same amount as the 6.6 Billion people in the world. Using an ant concept with an exo-skeleton you have the basic idea for a Mother Ship Robot, which carries smaller robots for important purposes. And really if you take an evasion craft of the Normandy Invasion and put in many Fighters with Kevlar and helmet, is that not the same concept?

http://www.michaelbehar.com/wired/robots_05_02_p2.html

Science Fictionists have forever been developers of such ideas, but in real life we must also deal with motion and therefore we have to make sure that these little robots as well as the mothership has the proper motor, gearing, batteries, speed controllers, fuel, weapons systems.

http://www.sandia.gov/media/NewsRel/NR2001/minirobot.htm

We are not the only ones working on robots, so are the Japanese and these items are getting very small as in Nano Size and will some day go in and attack cancer cells. Here are some of the smallest robots being developed:

http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/200…mbw-3001101.php .

Ants use a chemical communication system, which seems to be superior to human communication. Wasps and ants are of the same basic genome. By detecting smells and odors and CO2 they are able to home in on targets and give off chemicals to get other ants to follow their instructions. All colonies smell the same and other colonies do not smell the same. Each human has a smell as well and this smell can be used to identify people and perhaps small robots might uses chemicals to home in on and detect problems or discover North Korean’s arsenal? Some ants in hot desert regions use the direction of the sun, because the odors are melted into oblivion due to high heat of the day and perhaps a pattern of light in the sky based on the spectrum of the light rays, which is used as a good navigation system. The ants stop every so often to look up in the sky and see where they have gone. They can zig zag for hours and then beeline straight to the nest at will at any time. This type of navigation is very valuable, which can be used by those robots, which will go from LA to Las Vegas and collect their million dollar prize. In Minority Report remember the Robot Ants, well so do the scientists. The ants seem to be a pretty excellent species and well adapted for our various needs in a Mothership ground based robot form. We can learn much from ants also in their bacteria fighting ability, which neutralizes poisons in animals, insects and plants. Which means we could use organic robots and the current species can solve the problems of diseases we are now experiencing.

For instance West Nile Virus. We know that certain caterpillars make noise vibrations which can be picked up by the ants as a communication system. We can use such a vibration to train ants to do what we need them to do. Therefore we do not need to create a system of communication, however using mini network sensors and mini-robots we may be able to it as good or better than the natures version. We can use these for large uses or small uses, for trucks or for mini-bots. If we learn the communication system of ants, well then we do not need weapons for our enemies, because we can have the ants take care of our needs. Even though they not in possession of a large brain, they work as network computer grid. By using these types of systems and communicating strategies we can prevent, create a defense and create an offense strategy in robots and AUVs.

Now Ants work in a NetCentric Warfare strategy, they work in teams and the teams are separate from the whole in a way yet controlled by the central control before and after each mission. It is an anarchy of teams. Let me put it this way. It runs like the FED EX model and theories of Fred Smith explained in his book; The World on Time. You should read the book, especially you should go to the midnight Memphis Sort. Air Cargo usually uses this method, which he created. Each set of ants goes out and scours the area and finds things and then they get together to bring it back. At Fed Ex they have a mission and a goal and everyone has been trained to do the job, Now then, they bring all the packages to the hub like the ants, only now Fed Ex reverses it and uses the same methodology to deliver the packages somewhere else. And like the offensive defense of the nest the ants go out together and attack the predator together. Each one of these groups working together yet separate has their own little groups and teams, just like Fed Ex and again you are going to have to read the book to understand what I am talking about with Mr. Smith’s ideas on Management Theory.

I wonder if this is the natural order of things for all species on the planet and the best idea for those species to work together to be able to serve and exploit niches and accomplish tasks. 5 million years of evolution may have learned more about management than we have in our schools. Perhaps as much as we try we are not being smart about our designs? Organization is the strong point of the ants. Shouldn’t we pay attention? Yes of course. Especially as we create artificial life, artificial intelligence and robots and autonomous vehicles?

Just some thoughts on reviewing the Theory of Movement, Nature and Science and the possible future technologies of Mini-Robots, Motherships, Swarm Strategies as they relate to the future. By studying nature and the movements of such well adapted and evolved species like Wasps, Ants and bees and studying their Organization and Delivery Strategies we will learn the efficiencies and possibilities to move to the next step.

What Is This Thing Called Love?

Posted at by admin

What Is This Thing Called Love?
John Cali

Since Valentine’s Day will be here in less than a week, I thought it’d be a good idea to talk about love in this newsletter.

Many years ago, Joseph defined love this way:

“The choice to see the divinity in all beings.”

At the time that didn’t make much sense to me. In fact, it made almost no sense. But over the years I’ve come to see the wisdom and the power in that definition.

The very word, “love,” often conjures up so many confusing and conflicting images and feelings in our human minds. Especially in the seemingly chaotic and trying times our planet is experiencing today.

So I asked Joseph to revisit that earlier definition of love from so long ago.

Chief Joseph

We have often used the term “All That Is” to mean what many of you call God — Goddess — Great Spirit — etc. We prefer the term “All That Is” because it really says it all.

Whatever word or image you have of that divine creative energy, it doesn’t really matter. What does matter is that energy created every being, the entire universe, and every minute particle of that universe.

And that divine creative energy is part of — is the essence of — everything that exists, has ever existed, or will ever exist. In other words, all that is.

God is all that is. It’s that simple.

God is you. God is your beloved family. God is your friends. God is your enemies. God is your pets. God is the animals of the world. God is the plants growing in your garden. God is the food you eat. God is the clothes you wear. God is the country you live in. God is the countries you are at war with. God is the mountains, the hills, the valleys, the deserts, the oceans. God is the sun, the moon, the stars.

God is all that is and All That Is.

If you acknowledge the truth of what we’ve just said, then you must indeed have reverence for all life — yours and those of other human beings. And all other animal beings. All plant beings. And your Mother Earth and the planets, stars, galaxies surrounding your beloved Mother. Even so-called “inanimate” objects have their roots and their sacred beginnings in All That Is, in God.

If you see all creation in this way, friends, you will respect and revere all life. When you acknowledge the value, the sacredness of all life, of all beings, you have truly touched the hand of God.

At that moment of touching the hand of God you will know in your heart, in the very depths of your being and your soul, what it is to truly love.

Love is all there is. Love is all that is. Love is All That Is.

When you see that bright golden divine spark in all life, when you choose to see the divinity in all beings, you will have come home.

That, friends, is the key to all you long for — peace on earth, peace in your hearts. The peace that surpasses all human understanding.
