Despite the amount of preparation involved in this transition, it was a rough period to adapt to our new system and still offer the same level of service. Even after the change of system, we faced many unpredictable issues necessitating quick and efficient decisions altering the processes that were previously agreed on. Throughout all these challenges, our team worked together to ensure that we continued to offer the best possible service to you. We thank you for your patience and understanding as we sorted out those issues. Now that we have a solid foundation, we plan to work on numerous other projects that will connect with our ERP database to offer better and quicker solutions to you. During the previous year we have begun offering what we call the “Zoller service” for calibrating CNC tools so that you can save hours when you set up new tools or redressed tools on your CNC machine. If you haven’t heard of this service please ask your local sales and service representative or our customer service agents for more information. Once you have learned to love this service and would like to pursue with this fantastic advantage, we can offer you a machine with which you could calibrate your tools in-house, weekly or monthly, to make sure that you’re always using your tools at the optimal specifications and by keeping your stock removal to a minimum, enabling you to extend your tool life. Combining the calibrating machine or service with the new faster feed rates, you can maximize your production output. We have trained technicians available to help set your company up for a more successful and efficient production. And lastly, I would like to touch a sensitive yet very important subject, this year again the industry was struck with more work-related accidents across the country and this concerns me very much. We at GranQuartz Canada work hard to find the best tools and handling equipment that are safe and certified. Quality products have a price and like every tool or equipment, they must be maintained regularly and used properly by trained personnel. We strive to make workplaces safer environments for all and urge you to put the necessary attention it deserves on work accident prevention. To finish, I want to thank you all for your continued support and loyalty over the years. Rest assured of our commitment to finding the latest and greatest tools for your production efficiency. members of: Alain Bedard President & CEO tel.: 1 800 520-7223 STANSTEAD | TORONTO | CALGARY | VANCOUVER granquartz.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS BLADES MATERIAL HANDLING SMALL TURBO BLADES ...................................................................4-8 WORK STATION CRANES, HOISTS ..........................................145-148 TILE/PORCELAIN CONT.

  • Rust Disease of Water Willow Intercepted in Import Plant Quarantine in Japan
    RES.BULL.PL.PROT.JAPAN No. 41: 59~64(2005) Short Communication Rust Disease of Water Willow Intercepted in Import Plant Quarantine in Japan Yoichi MOTOKURA, Masayoshi NAGASE*, Akihiro OOI**, Koshi UEDA, and SHIGERU KIMURA Research Division, Yokohama Plant Protection Station 1-16-10, Shin-yamashita, Naka-ku, Yokohama 231- 0801, Japan. * Nagoya Airport Branch, Nagoya Plant Protection Station ** Nagoya Plant Protection Station Abstract: A rust disease on water willow(Justicia gendarussa Burm f.)was found at an import plant quar- antine inspection at Nagoya airport, in January, 2002. The causal rust fungus was identified with Puccinia thwaitesii Berk., based on it's morphology and the results of inoculation experiments. This is the first report on the interception of rust disease of water willow caused by P. thwaitesii at import plant quarantine inspection in Japan. Key words: rust, water willow, Justicia gendarussa, Puccinia thwaitesii Introduction Water willow(Justicia gendarussa Burm f..)is a perennial shrub native to the tropical and sub- tropical zones of the Asia, and it belongs to Acanthaceae(Editorial Committee of the Flora of Taiwan,1998). In the Southeast Asia, this plant is utilized as a raw material of Chinese medicine, or as a medicine for rheumatism(IWATSUKI et. al. ed., 1997). In our country, water willow is introduced and used as an ornamental plant, mainly for indoor. In January 2002, potted plants of water willow infected with a rust disease were found at an import plant quarantine inspection at Komaki(Nagoya international airport)in Japan. They were plants imported from Thailand for use as the ornamental foliage.

  • Colours in Nature Colours
    Nature's Wonderful Colours Magdalena KonečnáMagdalena Sedláčková • Jana • Štěpánka Sekaninová Nature is teeming with incredible colours. But have you ever wondered how the colours green, yellow, pink or blue might taste or smell? What could they sound like? Or what would they feel like if you touched them? Nature’s colours are so wonderful ColoursIN NATURE and diverse they inspired people to use the names of plants, animals and minerals when labelling all the nuances. Join us on Magdalena Konečná • Jana Sedláčková • Štěpánka Sekaninová a journey to discover the twelve most well-known colours and their shades. You will learn that the colours and elements you find in nature are often closely connected. Will you be able to find all the links in each chapter? Last but not least, if you are an aspiring artist, take our course at the end of the book and you’ll be able to paint as exquisitely as nature itself does! COLOURS IN NATURE COLOURS albatrosmedia.eu b4u publishing Prelude Who painted the trees green? Well, Nature can do this and other magic. Nature abounds in colours of all shades. Long, long ago people began to name colours for plants, animals and minerals they saw them in, so as better to tell them apart. But as time passed, ever more plants, animals and minerals were discovered that reminded us of colours already named. So we started to use the names for shades we already knew to name these new natural elements. What are these names? Join us as we look at beautiful colour shades one by one – from snow white, through canary yellow, ruby red, forget-me-not blue and moss green to the blackest black, dark as the night sky.

  • Rust-Red Stringy Rot and Red Heart Rot Indian Paint Fungus and Bleeding Stereum in Firs
    Rust-Red Stringy Rot and Red Heart Rot Indian paint fungus and bleeding Stereum in firs Pathogen—Rust-red stringy rot is caused by Echinodontium tinctorium. It is one of the few pathogens that has a common name—Indian paint fungus. Red heart rot is caused by Stereum (Haematostereum) sanguinolentum, also known as the bleeding Stereum. Hosts—Indian paint fungus attacks firs, hemlocks, and less commonly other species in western NorthAmerica, but it is primarily found on white fir in the Rocky Mountain Region. Bleeding Stereum occurs primarily on subal- pine fir and Engelmann spruce in this Region, though it can also attack other conifers. Signs and Symptoms—Indian paint fungus produces conks frequently at branch stubs, at wounds, and even inside hollow stems. The conk is hard and woody, hoof-shaped, and perennial (figs. 1-3). The upper surface is blackish and rough with crevices. The lower surface is grey-brown with hard, blunt, thick teeth. The inside is brilliant brick- or rust-red, but it fades over time after exposure. This tissue was ground into a powder and used as paint by some Native Americans, giving the fungus its name. The only other indicator of this disease is punk knots known as “rusty knots.” Although there is no swelling as with punk knots caused by Porodaedalea pini, the interior of the knot shows the rust-red color characteristic of the decay. Bleeding Stereum fruits frequently on logs and slash, but infrequently on live trees. Conks are small, thin, incon- spicuous, and leathery (fig. 4). Portions are appressed to the bark, often with a projecting cap.

  • Deviceside Software Update Strategies for Automotive Grade Linux
    Device­side Software Update Strategies for Automotive Grade Linux Konsulko Group, sponsored by ATS Advanced Telematic Systems GmbH Overview This whitepaper explores the area of software update strategies for devices running Automotive Grade Linux. The starting point is understanding several key use cases for updating software in an AGL1 system. Several open source device­side software update mechanisms are compared with a focus on their ability to meet the stated use cases. Finally, recommendations are made for an approach that can be implemented for inclusion in AGL. Use Cases and Requirements The topic of software update on any computing device is very broad and can only be examined properly by narrowing the scope of the system, operating conditions, and the policies established for executing a software update. The following sections describe the use cases considered when evaluating the various mechanisms that could be employed in an AGL software update strategy. System Description AGL systems include both IVI2 and ADAS3 devices that run Linux on at least one processor in the system. The complete IVI or ADAS system is not necessarily limited to a single processing node, but is normally part of a larger network that includes a number of ECU4 nodes throughout the automobile. Due to this distributed architecture it is often necessary to update software on 1 Automotive Grade Linux (https://www.automotivelinux.org/agl­specification) ​ 2 In­Vehicle Infotainment 3 Advanced Driver Assistance System 4 Electronic Control Unit Copyright 2016 Konsulko Group and ATS Advanced Telematic Systems GmbH CC BY­SA 3.0 US (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by­sa/3.0/us/) ​ ​ the ECUs as well as the node running AGL.

In spite of its ever-growing community, researchers as web programming [4], mobile application development [5], have not performed much analysis on Python’s topics, trends, and tech- security [6], and blockchain [7]. However, none of them has nologies which provides insights for developers about Python commu- focused on Python. In this study, we shed light on the nity trends and main issues. In this article, we examine the main topics Python’s main areas of discussion through mining 2 461 876 related to this language being discussed by developers on one of the most popular Q&A websites, Stack Overflow, as well as temporal trends posts, from August 2008 to January 2019, using LDA based through mining 2 461 876 posts. To be more useful for the software topic modeling . We also analyze the temporal trends of engineers, we study what Python provides as the alternative to popular the extracted topics to find out how the developers’ interest technologies offered by common programming languages like Java. is changing over the time. After explaining the topics and Our results indicate that discussions about Python standard features, trends of Python, we investigate the technologies offered web programming, and scientific programming 1 are the most popular by Python, which are not properly revealed by the topic areas in the Python community.
