Black caterpillar dozer12/5/2023 ![]() “Typically, we are connecting the site and, especially in quarries, we go one step further with VisionLink® Productivity so assets are connected and site managers can analyse performance across job sites, making decisions to improve productivity. “Even more important than having the exact payload measurements, though, is that the site manager gets all the information. “A quarry customer wants to ensure trucks are loaded to the maximum, because, if you’re underloading trucks, you’re losing efficiency, which means higher costs per tonne. “If you can measure production, it allows you to avoid overloading or underloading the trucks. On all our equipment, starting from the load area, we have payload systems – on the excavator, the wheel loader, the truck, as well as the yard, when the material is leaving the quarry. “We certainly see right now the importance of measuring the material flow. “In the construction business, you tend to have smaller jobsites, which are constantly changing, and they don’t have the same repetitive processes.”ĭo these repeating processes and the potential for scalability make quarries good places to utilise technology? “For example, for truck loading, if you can make the operator a little bit more efficient – say 5 seconds for each truck load – you have scalability if you’re loading 100 trucks a day. You’re repeating hundreds of times a day. With every little change that improves the process, you have a high scalability. Quarry customers look for efficiency ways they can improve the process. “Because of this, you have long-term thinking. ![]() So, basically, you have a repeating process, hour by hour, day by day. From there, the final material leaves the quarry site. You generally have the same processes – you start drilling, blasting, extraction, hauling, dumping into the crusher, screening, then you go to the yard. “In a quarry site, you have basically a factory without a roof. “I think the nature of the business between quarrying and construction is quite different. With this in mind, Construction Europe spoke to Peter Sauter and Christian Berling, quarrying experts from Caterpillar, about how technology is being brought to bear on the sector, to help increase both efficiency and sustainability.Īre quarrying operations currently experiencing similar issues to general construction, or are the challenges in this sector different? Suppliers of building materials are now reporting a general fall in demand and that means quarry owners are seeing their margins squeezed and must optimise efficiency to remain profitable.

Remove skin tags on neck12/4/2023 However, you might want to seek skin tag treatment for cosmetic reasons if, for instance, you have one on an eyelid and it detracts from your appearance. Sometimes skin tags fall off on their own as they get pulled and irritated, according to the AAFP. The only way to get rid of skin tags is to have a dermatologist remove them with a minor surgical procedure, says Baxt.ĭepending on where your skin tags are located, you might not choose any skin tag treatment - out of sight can lead to out of mind. Skin Tag Treatment Options: Simple Surgical Procedures Skin-tag-like basal cell carcinoma in childhood may represent a marker for NBCCS, according to one study. In rare cases, skin tags could be a symptom of nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS), which is a complex genetic disorder in which individuals are predisposed to developing a type of skin cancer known as basal cell carcinoma, according to the National Organization for Rare Disorders. One theory is that the friction created by skin rubbing against skin, a side effect of being overweight, causes skin tags in certain people, which would explain why skin tags often grow in body folds, according to the AOCD. They are also more common among people with diabetes and a family history of skin tags, according to the AOCD. There is no way to prevent skin tags other than staying a normal weight, she adds. No one knows what causes skin tags, but they are more common with pregnancy and weight gain, says Baxt. They are common as people age, according to the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP). It is estimated that almost half of adults have at least one skin tag, according to the AOCD. ![]() However, since it can be difficult to self-diagnose skin tags, it’s important to see a dermatologist if anything is growing, changing, bleeding, itchy, crusty, flaky, or changing color on your skin, says Baxt.Ī Common Condition: Skin Tag Causes and Risk Factors They are usually asymptomatic, and they are diagnosed by visual inspection. ![]() You may have just one or two, or you may have many they might be in isolated spots or in a group with many skin tags. Once formed, they typically don’t get any bigger. They are common on the neck, under the arms, in the groin, and on the eyelids, says Dr. Baxt, as they tend to grow in parts of the body with folds, but they can appear elsewhere as well. They can be right on the skin’s surface or seem to sprout from a thin stalk of skin and hang off the body. Skin tags, also called acrochordons, are mostly flesh-colored growths, although some may be darker in color, according to the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology (AOCD). Skin tags can be as small as 1 millimeter and as large as 1 centimeter, occasionally even larger, says Rebecca Baxt, MD, a dermatologist in Paramus, New Jersey. ![]() How to Identify a Skin Tag: What They Look Like And though what causes skin tags isn’t always known, skin tag treatment is pretty straightforward - they are easily removed. They are harmless and more of a cosmetic issue than anything else, but understanding what they are, and aren’t, can be reassuring. Skin tags are extra pieces of skin that stick out beyond the surface of the body. Target projection clock12/4/2023 ![]() Moore projects best as a flanker/slot receiver in the NFL but was not going to play that role over an established veteran like JuJu Smith-Schuster after coming from a lower collegiate level. The Chiefs' receiver room seems like a mystery on paper but Skyy Mooreshould be considered the odds-on favorite to lead that position in catches and yards. Nailing the position in the early and mid-rounds is as important as ever. Getting breakout candidates right later on is important but don’t let that siren song convince you to avoid stocking the position with a wealth of safe and high-ceiling combo bets available earlier. Even if you get a few ADP-beaters along the way, it can still be tough to compete with receiver corps loaded with three-plus alpha target earners who can flip a fantasy matchup any given week.Īll the good fantasy rosters coming out of drafts will be the ones that hammered receiver in Rounds 1 to 6. While there are guys you can tell yourself a story about as breakout options and guys with better-than-advertised target projections in the late rounds, there’s still a great deal of uncertainty lurking. ![]() So, with the quality depth available at the position and “zigging when they zag” always being a tried and true fantasy concept, does it make sense to pass on receivers early? There are 32 wide receivers with consensus ADPs inside the top 80 picks and as Yahoo Fantasy contributor Jorge Martin notes, running backs have fallen lower than ever. This carries into the middle rounds, as well. With Travis Kelce carrying a Round 1 sticker too, the running back position has officially lost its majority. Manscaping beard trimmer12/4/2023 and for some reason, women's "private-area-shavers" are cheaper than men's.Īnd lemme tell ya - when i was a kid i'd watch my sister shave her legs, and she'd go thru 3 blades shaving that freakin forest - i can imagine what the hair on the vaginal cavity must be like. Me - i don't care - i'll use whatever works, and is cheap. Remington PG525 Head to Toe Lithium Powered Body Groomer Best Budget Option. Order one, and if it comes in a box that shows it, say it's a 'gift' or some shit. Philips Norelco Bodygroom Series 7100 Best Premium Trimmer. So - even if you're too "manly" to use a woman's shaver - WHO'S GONNA KNOW? I used to HATE shavin me balls, cuz i'd always end up bleeding, and having to soak my nutsack in freakin peroxide. Beard trimmers give a closer shave and are ideal for creases in skin and detail work. ![]() You could shave with a hand razor, use too-wide hair clippers, or go for the beard trimmer.

It's easy to control and safe to use in the shower, and played John. Women's "bikini" shavers are better than any men's razor/shaver.īut of course, i guess most guys wouldn't buy or use something made for shaving a vaginal cavity. This is the first trimmer designed to tackle the follicles below your beard. A black lady sketch show season 212/4/2023 ![]() ![]() A Black Lady Sketch Show does more than show Black women’s range for comedy, it celebrates Black women with all their joys and hilariously shows the barriers Black women experience. Hopefully, this show not only continues but continues to improve upon previous seasons. Don’t think there are even white characters in the background another noteworthy surprise as many shows and films, even when they showcase us will include at least one white person to cater to the white gaze. ![]() The writers know it, hence the hilarity of the sketch “Tired Dance Moves”. This show stands out as much as Key & Peele and is more notable due to its creator, writers, and characters being Black women, who are often overlooked. It’s now Black women playing a variety of roles and while other sketch shows have existed and had Black people, they are often tokens in the show and feel made for white people to laugh at us. Creator Robin Thede is as talented in writing as she is acting and it’s nothing short of phenomenal to have a show specifically made showcasing our comedic talents and stories. It gives a shout out to games like MASH many of us played-IYKYK-while still giving relevance to current culture with phrases like “holy Dora Milaje.” There is also a sequel to the beloved first season sketch that highlighted the elation we feel when we encounter solely Black ladies in a professional setting-a rarity for many of us-in “Courtroom Kiki Part 2”.Ī Black Lady Sketch Show season 2 improves upon the first season and it’ll be a challenge to select one favorite from this season. The show even touches on the challenge of getting a unified opinion with the sketch “Black Market Research”. It does not show a one-dimensional monolithic Black woman experience but joyously revels in the differences. The beauty of this show is how it not only showcases Black women but reminds us of our own experiences hanging out with friends. The core story of the group of friends surviving after the world has ended continues throughout the series with various sketches interspersed between this continuing segment. Haddassah Olayinka Ali-Youngman warning of the dangers of white people putting raisins in everything to the dysfunctionally comical Chris and Lachel romance and some of these characters do return for season two with a spate of guest stars including Issa Rae, Gabrielle Union, Wunmi Mosaku, and Omarion as well as two new recurring cast members Skye Townsend and Laci Mosley (as Quinta Brunson had scheduling conflicts). They also gave us unforgettable characters such as Dr. Still, the initial season with actresses Robin Thede, Ashley Nicole Black, Gabrielle Dennis, and Quinta Brunson had a banging intro of the quartet as muppets, acting up while Megan Thee Stallion’s “Hot Girl” plays. Unsurprising given how sketch comedy is some sketches work while others fall short of hitting the mark between truth-however exaggerated-and comedy. A Black Lady Sketch Show season 1, when it aired in 2019 had peaks and valleys.

Printable jigsaw puzzle maker12/4/2023 ![]() ![]() The Museum staff have investigated this intriguing little machine, and decided that although it probably works well, the idea of energetically winding the handle to punch card while holding the card with ones's fingers is probably to invite the loss of parts of one's fingertips - the bench clamp is probably a necessary aspect of the machine to allow the user to keep their fingers a long way away from the blade.
