8/19/2023 0 Comments Tico shunt truck![]() “That surprise is one of the biggest trends I’ve noticed. “Anyone who used to buy off-road yard tractors is so surprised by the cost of new technology and the complexity of it all,” he said. is recognizing more than any spec’ is the face of a customer who hasn’t been shunt truck shopping in a while. “So, with a simple fix like adding AM/FM radio to the shunt truck – five years ago, no shunt trucks had that, and now it’s a popular option today.” “These drivers really just want the same comforts as highway drivers,” acknowledged Blake. “We’re seeing customers asking for the trucks to come with radio, MP3 player capability, and chargers for their phone and tablet,” she said.Īnd just like GPS systems for drivers, shunt truck operators want their yard management systems mounted to their dashboard for easy access, Uppington added. Sedlezky confirmed she is seeing this with her customers as well, adding many are asking for entertainment systems in the cab. So with that, we’re seeing OEMs trying to give truck drivers the car experience where there’s Bluetooth hookups in the cab and things like that to make life easier for the drivers.” “So making the cab a more comfortable place for the driver is becoming more popular. “Drivers – even shunt truck drivers – are getting older,” he said. Even though this issue isn’t exclusive to terminal tractors, we are seeing it go in the terminal tractors more and more.”Īccording to Shawn Rogers, national sales manager for Train Trailer, more and more shunt trucks are getting spec’d to resemble a car. The seat works to help keep the driver healthy. “They work like noise canceling headphones and isolate the driver from being tossed around. “Many are choosing to go with the Bose Ride seat on their new trucks,” he said, adding that the company recently sold 45 units with the Bose Ride seats to a major Canadian client. He said that buyers are more aware of the effects of full body vibration caused by being in the truck all day. “What we’re really seeing a lot of recently is more buyers opting for comfortable seats,” said Uppington. It provides better quality light for the driver and they can see what’s going on around them much better than with traditional incandescent lamps or halogen lamps.” “We’ve seen for many years now that almost all our trucks are being spec’d with LED exterior lighting. John Uppington of Kalmar Ottawa confirmed this trend. “The LED lighting provides better visibility for the driver and makes it safer for the drivers in the yard,” she said, adding that many owners are opting to upgrade to LED lighting for the safety factor alone. There has also been a major move towards spec’ing LED lighting, according to Sedlezky. “Especially our customers in the Ottawa area.” “Because of how many times the doors are opened in the winter, we are finding that many customers like to have a secondary heating system,” agreed Michelle Sedlezky at Tico dealer Checker Flag Leasing. Not only do the heaters keep the drivers warm during the winter months, but they can also keep the windshield defogged and are a fuel saving option that many are fond of, Cobham Jr. So, we’re seeing a lot of people putting in auxiliary heaters as another heat source.” “They have small motors – two-fifths the size of a highway truck – so they don’t produce as much heat. “Shunt trucks don’t produce a lot of heat,” he said. said that many more customers are spec’ing auxiliary heaters. So many of our customers are finding that having air conditioning will keep drivers happy.” “Just like on-highway drivers, retention is important for shunt truck drivers too. “Two or three years ago, air conditioning was an option, but now it comes standard,” he said. James Blake, vice-president and general manager of Tico Eastern Canada agreed. ![]() ![]() Some people might refuse to work if it’s too hot. But for drivers today, air conditioning is a pretty important thing. Some people said drivers going from a 65-degree cab to 90 degrees outside is not good for you. “Because there was a reason not to spec’ it. vice-president of sales and marketing, Autocar dealer Glasvan Great Dane said. “A couple years ago, this wasn’t the case,” George Cobham Jr. One of the most noticeable trends in the last five years has been that air conditioning in terminal tractors is now standard, the dealers told us. We spoke with several shunt truck dealers who gave us the scoop on the latest options buyers are steering towards, and found many shoppers are opting to make the shunt truck a more luxurious space in an effort to attract and retain operators. You can spec’ your terminal tractor with endless options to suit your fleet’s needs and even make it a comfortable and functional work space for operators. With all the different options available, buying a shunt truck isn’t a simple task anymore. 8/19/2023 0 Comments White india ink marker![]() ![]() Now, Sharma’s AIR-INK is on display at the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in New York, in the exhibition “ Nature-Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial” co-organized with the Cube design museum in Kerkrade, Netherlands. They take this idea beyond the science and the impact,” he explains.Īs artists realized that AIR-INK pens produced high-quality, long-lasting, deeply-pigmented, non-toxic pigment using recycled material, word spread fast. “Art wasn’t the way to make money for us - it was the way for us to build a community. In 2016, he paired up with the Singapore-based brewery Tiger Beer to create street art and murals using AIR-INK in Hong Kong's Sheung Wan district. When it came time to start sharing the product with the rest of the world, Sharma knew he wanted to start with artists. Sharma and his team started his company Graviky Labs, which handles operations for both Kaalink and AIR-INK. Each marker holds about 30 milliliters of AIR-INK, which is equivalent to approximately 45 minutes of diesel car pollution. Now, Kaalink can by scaled up to filter air pollution from just about any source, like a smokestack on small machinery or even straight out of the air, and turn it into soot, which is then hydrated to form ink that can be used in AIR-INK pens and markers. They first developed a filtering device called Kaalink, derived from the Hindi word “kaala” meaning black, that was comprised of a steel cylinder that could be affixed to an exhaust pipe. “People started seeing AIR-INK as an opportunity to get rid of their waste, so it doesn’t end up in a landfill.” “They started coming to us and asking to send it to us because we were making something people can buy,” Sharma says. They put a call out to area factories asking for their carbon particulates, and it wasn’t long before polluters started contacting him to collect their waste. Without systems in place to get rid of the waste, plenty will end up in landfills or even rivers, Sharma explains. ![]() However, in places like India where regulations are more relaxed, waste builds up quickly at small to medium-size businesses because it can be expensive to dispose. Sharma explains that in Western countries, like the United States, stricter regulations already require companies to dispose of carbon particulates responsibly. In the six months they spent in India refining their technology, it wasn’t hard to find pollution sources for experimenting. When it worked, he and his team built a lab in a small garage in Bangalore to create a device that could capture air pollution at the source, in engines or factory machinery. ![]() It started as a small proof of concept experiment using soot from air pollution to make paint. A year later, following the completion of his master's degree at MIT, Sharma returned to India to focus fully on developing what would become a product called AIR-INK, the first commercial ink made entirely from air pollution. In 2013, Sharma and a few friends “hacked” an inkjet printer cartridge to print using ink made from soot from a candle at the Fluid Interfaces Group at MIT’s Media Lab. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value." Buckminster Fuller: "Pollution is nothing but resources we're not harvesting. He reflects on a quote from 20th century inventor and architect R. Fashion and textiles use black ink,” says Sharma. “Ink is such a powerful medium to connect with people. If he could find a way, he thought, to capture the particles that produced that stain on the wall in his photograph, he could not only reduce the amount of pollution released into the air, but also turn it into something new, or perhaps something beautiful. But you shouldn’t need to burn new fossil fuels just to make ink. “The black color in the pen you use is made by burning fossil fuels to make ink. “So, if you can do it with soot, can we do the same with air pollution?” Sharma explains. The powder is mixed with a polymer and a solvent to turn it into smooth, flowing black rollerball ink. The technical term for the substance is “ carbon black,” and it is the powder that remains after burning coal or oil. The black ink we use in our pens or in inkjet printers is essentially made from soot. That dark, triangular stain made Sharma, who was then a student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Media Lab, think seriously about pollution-and also about pigments, like ink. On a trip to India in 2012, Anirudh Sharma captured a photo of a diesel generator blowing black soot against a white wall. ![]() Two or three, whole or broken, horizontal lines symbolize.

The front plotted in the Southeastern U.S. The leading edge of advancing warm air is a warm front and is signified by red semi-circles on the side of the front’s movement. The leading edge of advancing cold air is a cold front and, as shown in the map legend in Figure 1, is signified by blue spike symbols which are pointing in the direction toward which the cold front is moving. These boundaries, called fronts, typically separate warm and cold air-the major determiner of air density differences. Because air masses of different densities do not readily mix, boundaries separating air masses tend to remain distinct and persistent. In the atmosphere, broad expanses of air with generally uniform temperature, humidity, and therefore density come in contact with other masses of air having different temperature, humidity, and density characteristics.

A bright yellow sun means “sunny.” But others are less obvious. But the iPhone Weather app doesn’t include descriptions of the graphic icons that appear next to each day. The forecast should be the same as if you want to Yahoo and looked up the weather for your area.

8/18/2023 0 Comments Franchi intensity![]() Most people use the term shot when describing the ammunition of a shotgun, but slugs are also another type of shotgun ammunition. ![]() ![]() Slug : A slug is actually a word that describes a shotgun bullet.The bigger the pellets, the more impact it will have on the target. The only difference is the buckshot does more damage than the birdshot because it uses larger pellets. When the buckshot is fired from the shotgun the pellets scatter outward just like the birdshot. Buckshot : Buckshot is shotgun ammunition that uses large metal pellets in the shotgun shells.The reason why this type of ammunition works best for shooting birds is because it is easier to hit them with it. The more metal spheres, or pellets, that get packed into a shell the more the pellets will scatter around the target area. Inside a birdshot shell are small steel or lead spheres that scatter outward once it is fired from the shotgun. It is typically used by hunters who want to shoot birds or other flying wildlife. Bird Shot : Birdshot is the smallest type of shotgun pellets.If you own only one gun, it should be a 12 gauge. Ammunition is available everywhere, and the volume of 12 gauge sales keeps prices low. The 12 gauge shoots everything from nearly recoilless 3/4-ounce practice loads to 2 1/4-ounce turkey stompers. This is the standard and the most versatile gauge of all. The 12 gauge is by far the most versatile and handles a huge range of loads.

Shouldering and aiming the Intensity is like pointing your finger. Three choke tubes are supplied with the Intensity, including IC, M, and F (choke wrench included). The Intensity is available in four finishes and comes with either a 26-, 28- or 30-inch barrel that sports a stepped, ventilated-rib with a red fiber-optic front sight. Further slimming is accomplished by trimming down the dimensions of the durable polymer stock, which also includes a removable balance weight fitted in the buttstock for adjustable weight distribution and balance. It embodies the feel of a smaller gauge gun with a slim attractive profile, possible because the recoil spring encircles the magazine tube located forward of the receiver.

Once it cools, it will stay in that new position. PVC is what scientists call an amorphous polymer, which means the particles that make up its structure are not arranged in fixed arrays.Īpplying heat to the PVC, therefore, softens it up and makes it easier to bend. You can bend PVC pipes by applying heat to the part where you want the bend to go. So it’s best not to use a direct flame on the pipe. But if the PVC goes up in flames, vinyl chloride will be released into the air. It’s not harmful when it's sealed inside the PVC polymer. Remember to wear heat-proof gloves or oven mitts to protect your hands when you touch the hot pipe.Īpart from the fumes, one of the main components of PVC, vinyl chloride, is carcinogenic. Bend the pipes in a well-ventilated area ( do not bend PVC indoors ). ![]() That’s because PVC can produce harmful vapors and fumes like carbon monoxide and chlorinated furans when heated, so you need to Safety Tips for Bending PVC Pipes With Heatīefore we get on with bending the pipes, remember to be extra cautious when dealing with PVC and heat. ![]() Let’s look at a few easy methods to bend PVC piping for your next DIY project. Thankfully, by simply applying heat to the pipe, you can bend it at home, even without specialized tools. When you’re installing or fixing your irrigation system, you won’t always get the exact shape of PVC pipes you need to complete the project.īut PVC is hard and stiff you won’t be able to bend it at will. 8/18/2023 0 Comments Update time vimrFor example: vim +"set shiftwidth=4|echo 'hello'" You can run any command using the options -c or +.NONE - Don’t load any vimrc nor plugins.NORC - Don’t load any vimrc but load your plugins.You can also use of of these value instead of a vimrc for debug purposes: You can use the option -u when you run Vim in your terminal, to load another vimrc file instead of the default one.Setting the option exrc can be dangerous: Vim can load potentially unsecure vimrc files you might have downloaded with other files.In Lua or Vimscript for Neovim (located in $HOME/.config/nvim/init.vim, or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim/init.vim if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set).In Vimscript for Vim (located at $HOME/.vimrc).If you want to run more than one command using $VIMINIT, you can separate them with the symbol |.Execute the options given to Vim affecting the startup.Source the shada file (for Neovim) or the viminfo file (for Vim).Load runtime’s and plugin’s scripts from the “after” folder.Source filetypes, filetype plugins, and indent plugins.Keep in mind however that setting “exrc” is not secure.

8/18/2023 0 Comments Redacted console commands![]() In Chrome, both console.error() and console.warn() can be expanded to show additional information about the output while Firefox only does this with console.error(). For example, bug() is not color-coded and () has an additional icon next to it. Here is the same list in Firefox and, while it looks similar, there are three minor differences. Firefox console showing debug, error, info, log, and warn The error and warn outputs have an additional icon for even easier identification. Notice that some of them have a color treatment to give a visual indication of the type of output it is. This is an example in Chrome of each command outputting a string, such as bug('bug()'). Chrome console showing debug, error, info, log, and warn ![]() Before we get into what you can log in these five commands, let’s see our first minor difference between Chrome and Firefox. I’m sure many of you have seen console.log() before (I mean, we just talked about it up top) and have probably used it before. But browsers provide additional features tied to the five commands to give each their own distinct benefit. There are five commands that at first glance seem to do the exact same thing. This will clear the console and will helpfully inform you of that by outputting a message like “Console was cleared.” Common usage: debug(), error(), info(), log(), and warn() However, the console object itself also provides a command to handle this: console.clear() Browsers typically provide a button in DevTools that performs this task. Sometimes you just want to clear things out and start with a fresh console. With heavy usage of the console comes a very crowded output of text. That way, you can be fairly confident that your code will output much the same regardless of the browser in use. Thankfully, most of the differences between the browsers tend to be just as trivial. Firefox doesn’t provide this property and yet has a “name” property that Chrome does not have. One such difference I can point out between Firefox and Chrome is that Chrome provides a “memory” property that outputs some basic memory usage stats. If there are differences in the properties of the console object from one browser to another, this way you can see the differences. Most of them are functions and will be rather consistent regardless of browser. This command will output the various properties of the console object as the browser knows them. The first thing we can do is log the console object itself to see what your browser of choice actually offers. The new Chromium-based Edge is essentially the same as Chrome in many ways so, in most cases, the console commands will operate much the same. This guide covers what’s available in the console object of Firefox and Chrome as they are often the most popular browsers for development and they do have a few differences in various aspects of the console. Some of these differences are simply visual in nature while others do have slight functional differences to keep in mind.įor the curious, here’s the spec by WHATWG linked from the MDN console docs. ![]() Even though these features are mostly consistent between browsers, there are a few differences. These commands are contained in a console object available in almost every browser. There is also a way for a website’s JavaScript to trigger various commands that output to the console for debugging purposes. Starting out as a means for errors to be reported to the developer, its capabilities have increased in many ways such as automatically logging information like network requests, network responses, security errors or warnings. The developer’s debugging console has been available in one form or another in web browsers for many years. |
