title: Arthouse reviews the second best exotic marigold hotel

text:
It’s films like this that make you think it must be so much fun being an actor. You get to go to exciting locations and lounge around luxury hotels, spend time amongst other entertaining national treasures like yourself, no doubt have a good laugh and go home with a nice tan and an extra pot for your pension.
At least it’s hard to believe there wasn’t a lot fun involved in the making of The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. On the other hand, there could have been lots of tantrums, rivalries and competition for the best lines or a dance with Richard Gere. Perhaps the film about the making of the film would have been more interesting than the film itself. At least you might have been able to make sense of the sub plots.
As it was, a lot of the time was spent hammering home the message that getting old doesn’t mean the end of your life, while at the same time rather worryingly talking an awful lot about death. The message began to disturb rather than uplift. And there are times when you might wonder if the film had confused Indian with idiotic, particularly in the case of some of the male characters. But then would you want to miss Maggie Smith, Celia Imrie, Penelope Wilton and Bill Nighy doing Bollywood with Dev Patel and Shazad Latif? And who else but the best of British acting talent could actually deliver those lines? Judy Dench can make any old empty cliché sound like an ancient Indian pearl of wisdom.

title: Sale of yacht path international assets is approved

text:
Assets of Yacht Path International and its related entities were purchased by a sole bidder Monday for $250,000—an amount the company’s co-founder calls “an absolute joke.”
Documents filed in a Florida U.S. Bankruptcy Court say the sale of the yacht shipping business and its sister companies was approved for $250,000 Monday because “no other person or entity appeared at the sale approval hearing wishing to participate in bidding or to make a higher and better offer.”
Yacht Path Holdings LLC, identified only as a “New Jersey limited liability company,” was the initial bidder for the company’s assets. Because there were no other bidders at auction, Yacht Path Holdings got the company for its original bid. There was no website for the company, although the name was on file at the state of New Jersey’s Online Business Entity Filing website. The sale agreement signed by Michael Uhl of Yacht Path Holdings LLC grants control of the company’s assets, as well as responsibility for all liens except for one that is in dispute.
Yacht Path International co-founder Kevin Cummings called the $250,000 purchase price “an absolute joke.” The court-appointed trustee handling the sale of the companies didn’t return calls to Trade Only Today, nor did the attorneys representing all the parties in the case.
“If that’s the case, then the trustee did a really poor job for the creditors,” Cummings told Trade Only Today, adding that the equipment cost him $1.8 million to purchase. “If they can honestly come up and say they came up with $250,000 as a purchase price, then the system is flawed.”
Yacht Path’s assets were frozen after myriad claims were filed by customers who said they either had to pay twice to get their yachts shipped — once up front and another time when the yacht reached its destination — or they paid to have yachts shipped that never made the trip.
Cummings continues to defend the company he and his brother, Dennis, launched in 2001, saying it saw three consecutive years of losses because of a poor economy, low freight rates and high competition. Then a failed merger led to an initial lawsuit that prompted a judge to freeze the assets and business proceedings of the company. That led to the inability to pay freight.
When the trustee was appointed, Cummings said Yacht Path International had a ship with 39 yachts headed to Vancouver that was stopped. “We were prevented from performing a voyage that would have seen a profit of more than $250,000 on behalf of the creditors.”
Cummings says the loss of Yacht Path International will negatively affect the industry because it leaves only two companies that will perform the same service.
“It’s not only [about] the customers who were affected and the money they lost in the bankruptcy,” he said. “It’s the fact that there’s a big portion of the industry now that’s disconnected.”

Benefit in 2025 With an IRA Charitable Rollover
Each year, traditional IRA owners aged 73 and older must take a required minimum distribution (RMD). In nearly all cases, the RMD is calculated using the Uniform Lifetime Table. Under the Uniform Lifetime Table, distributions generally commence at age 73 at approximately 3.8% and increase each year based on the age of the IRA owner. The RMD must be taken by December 31 each year.
Many traditional IRA owners with larger balances take their RMD during the months of October, November and December. Because many individuals with larger IRAs do not need IRA distributions throughout the year to pay for living expenses, they often delay an RMD until the end of the year. This allows the IRA balance to benefit from additional tax-free growth during the year.
Fortunately, the IRA charitable rollover will count towards the donor's RMD. Although RMDs are not required until age 73, the IRA charitable rollover can be used by any donor once they reach age 70½. The IRS term for an IRA charitable rollover is a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) which is also the term commonly used by IRA custodians.
There are five donor profiles for IRA charitable rollover gifts. The first are the convenience donors who find it a simple method for an end of year gift. The second is the generous donor who wants to give more than the 60% of adjusted gross income (AGI) deduction limit for cash gifts. The third is a major donor who may be a generous individual looking for a favorable opportunity to make a major gift. The fourth donor is the Social Security recipient looking to reduce taxes with an IRA charitable rollover gift. Finally, a donor who takes the standard deduction can also benefit from an IRA charitable rollover gift.
Many IRA owners wait until the final months of the year to take their IRA withdrawals. As the individual approaches the end of the year, he or she will need to make decisions related to their RMD. If an IRA owner is actively making gifts to charity during the year, then using a QCD is a good opportunity to make a gift.
Convenience donors may contact their IRA custodians to arrange for an IRA charitable rollover. There is no charitable income tax deduction, but also no inclusion in federal taxable income. It is a simple and convenient way to help their favorite charity.
Some generous individuals already donate up to 60% of their AGI which is the maximum limit allowed by the IRS for deduction of cash gifts each year. Any gifts over this limit may be carried forward and deducted over the following five years. Some generous donors may also have a large IRA and live at a moderate expense level and may not need their entire IRA.
If there is a desire to give more, they can give up to 60% of adjusted gross income from their cash assets and make "over and above" gifts from an IRA. Some generous donors may in effect give nearly 100% of their income per year through this method. Since the IRA charitable rollover is not included in taxable income, it will have no impact on their regular income and other charitable gifts.
As the rules have continually become more favorable for IRAs and required withdrawals have been reduced, IRAs balances are likely to keep growing. There are occasional market dips, but the long-term trend is positive and IRAs will continue to increase in value.
For many professionals and business owners, the IRA may become most of the estate. In these cases, it may be desirable to do "asset balancing" to keep future RMDs at manageable levels. To accomplish this goal, the major donor can give up to the maximum QCD amount in 2025 of $108,000 from his or her IRA. This has the advantage of "balancing" the estate assets.
In addition, there may be income tax benefits. If the donor were to take the IRA distribution into his or her own personal income, there are several types of exemptions that are phased out at higher income levels. Thus, it may be preferable to make the gift directly from an IRA rather than making a charitable gift from regular income.
Social Security Donor
Social Security is subject to two levels of taxation. For donors who have income in excess of the first level, 50% of Social Security is taxed. For donors with income in excess of the second level, up to 85% of Social Security income may be subject to tax.
Withdrawing any amount from an IRA will potentially cause the amount of the donor’s social security benefits that are taxable to increase from 50% to 85%. Even if the withdrawn amount is given to charity and then deducted, there may still be increased tax on the donor’s income. Thus, by making the transfer directly to charity, many Social Security recipients will save income taxes.
Standard Deduction Donor
Many seniors do not have a mortgage and have medical deductions that are less than 7.5% of AGI. Thus, they may not have a sufficient level of deductions to itemize and choose instead to use the standard deduction.
If a donor withdraws $1,000 from his or her IRA and then gives it to charity, there is $1,000 of increased income with no offsetting charitable deduction, since the standard deduction is taken. Therefore, it may be preferable for all donors who take a standard deduction to make IRA charitable rollover gifts directly to charity and avoid the additional income tax on their RMD.

Our cannabis nutrients ensure optimal growth with a perfect balance of macronutrients and micronutrients. Suitable for soil and hydroponics, they support healthy, high-yielding plants.
No more products
The best marijuana plants get their start from the best Cannabis nutrients. In addition to our grow support, we're proud to offer nutrients and plant protectors that help your Cannabis seeds become high producing weed plants. We sell Cannabis nutrients for soil, hydroponics, and other growing mediums.
DIY Cannabis Nutrients Are Risky
Organic Cannabis nutrients can be challenging to find, which is why some people choose to create their own. While you can make all-natural marijuana nutrients using everyday ingredients, the best organic Cannabis nutrients know the perfect proportions for your growing success.
In general, top Cannabis nutrients include both macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are absolutely required, whereas micronutrients help ensure a thriving plant. Cannabis plants need Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium (NPK). They should also have calcium, magnesium, sulfur, manganese, and boron.
When you make your own Cannabis nutrients, you need to know how much of these elements to provide. You also need to consider your growing medium. Certain mediums, such as soil, already have some nutrients. If you're not careful, you may add too much of one particular element.
Another DIY option is to add nutrients to everyday fertilizers as an alternative to buying the best Cannabis nutrients. While this may seem like a good idea, these cheap Cannabis nutrients can harm your plants if you don't know what you are doing. Nutrient burn is a real thing, and it's very likely to happen if you're homemade plant food has the wrong nutrient balance.
Use Hydroponic Cannabis Nutrients for Hydro Grows
If you are growing hydroponically, you'll need nutrients that will support your plant's unique needs. Unlike soil, there are no naturally occurring macronutrients in water. Instead, you will need to add these and other nutrients to your growing solution for your Cannabis plants to thrive.
When researching the best Cannabis nutrients hydroponics and aeroponic growers must pay close attention to their choice of nutrients. That's because their plants will be entirely reliant on these added nutrients for their success. With hydroponics, Cannabis nutrients are their lifeline. Choose the wrong one, and your plant may never survive.
Many ordinary fertilizers will not work for hydroponics because they do not provide a broad range of nutrients. Many times, this is because they are designed for soil, which often contains many of the necessary macronutrients. If you are growing hydroponically, be sure to select fertilizers designed for your growing medium.
Buy Cannabis Nutrients
Marijuana nutrients help your plants survive setbacks, yield better bud, and thrive in harsh environments. Our marijuana fertilizers give your plants a healthy boost for more buds and stronger potency.
Bergman's Plant food is a high potassium NPK-formula designed to help your plants bloom. It's perfect for indoor autoflowers, but it's also one of the best outdoor Cannabis nutrients that you can buy.

title: Carbon emission spectrum

text:
At the heart of understanding the carbon emission spectrum is the broader study of emission spectra—visual displays of the frequencies of light an object emits. Like a fingerprint, each element has a unique emission spectrum.
The carbon emission spectrum is a unique set of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation emitted by energized carbon atoms. It’s an essential tool for identifying the presence and quantity of carbon in various environments.
Let’s take a closer look at the Carbon emission spectrum, and discover something that might surprise you.
A Brief Primer On The Carbon Emission Spectrum
Atoms, in their quiescent state, have electrons revolving around the nucleus in specific energy orbits. When you pump energy into these atoms—through heat, light, or electricity—the electrons jump to higher energy levels.
Once the energy source is removed, the electrons fall back to their original levels, emitting energy in the form of light. This light, when spread out using a prism or diffraction grating, forms the emission spectrum.
Quantum mechanics, the theory governing the world of atoms and subatomic particles, plays a key role in explaining emission spectra. According to this theory, energy is transferred only in discrete units, known as “quanta.”
This is why electrons only occupy certain energy levels, and each transition corresponds to a specific color in the emission spectrum.
Understanding The Emission Spectrum of Carbon Dioxide
The emission spectrum of carbon dioxide (CO2) is a crucial tool in environmental and climatic studies.
When excited, the CO2 molecules emit light of specific wavelengths, which forms its emission spectrum. By observing this spectrum, we can deduce the presence and quantity of CO2 in a particular environment.
It’s particularly important in the context of greenhouse gas monitoring, as CO2 is a significant contributor to global warming. Its distinct emission lines serve as markers for CO2, providing us with valuable information about human impacts on atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
Getting Started With Carbon Emission Lines
Carbon emission lines are the distinctive spectral signatures that we see in the carbon emission spectrum.
Each line corresponds to a specific energy transition of the carbon atoms. By studying these emission lines, scientists can discern a wealth of information about the carbon content in a given sample. For instance, astronomers use these lines to determine the composition of distant stars and galaxies.
Environmental scientists, on the other hand, use them to monitor and quantify carbon emissions in our atmosphere.
Carbon Emission Lines in Astrophysics
For astrophysicists, these emission lines are of utmost importance. The lines are unique to each element and can be likened to a fingerprint.
By observing these lines, astrophysicists can discern the composition of distant celestial bodies. Since the emission lines for carbon are well established, the presence of these lines in the light from a star or galaxy indicates the presence of carbon.
Carbon Emission Lines in Environmental Science
In the realm of environmental science, carbon emission lines also hold significant value. These lines enable scientists to monitor and quantify carbon emissions in our atmosphere.
In the context of climate change, understanding and tracking these emission lines is crucial. This knowledge allows us to monitor human impacts on atmospheric carbon levels and aids in the development of strategies to mitigate these effects.
Carbon Emission Spectroscopy
Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, is the primary tool used to observe carbon emission lines.
Through techniques such as atomic emission spectroscopy, scientists can excite carbon atoms and then analyze the emitted light to determine the composition and concentration of carbon in a sample.
This provides a powerful and precise method for studying carbon and its various compounds.
What Is The Wavelength of Carbon Emission?
The wavelength of carbon emission refers to the particular wavelength at which a carbon atom emits light when it’s excited and then returns to a lower energy state.
For carbon, the most prominent emission lines in the visible range are located at wavelengths of approximately 493.205 nanometers (nm) and 906.89 nm, which correspond to a green-blue and infrared color, respectively.
However, it’s essential to note that the carbon emission spectrum is vast, encompassing a range of wavelengths that correspond to different energy transitions within the atom.
The Sun and Carbon Emission Spectrum
The Sun, our primary source of light and heat, emits a continuous spectrum of light—called a blackbody spectrum. Superimposed on this spectrum are dark absorption lines, known as Fraunhofer lines. Among these lines are those corresponding to carbon.
Scientists use these spectral lines to determine the Sun’s chemical composition, including the amount of carbon present.
Carbon Emission Spectrum in Everyday Life
Astrophysics and Carbon Spectroscopy
In astrophysics, understanding the carbon emission spectrum is crucial for determining the chemical composition of celestial bodies. This information can help scientists draw conclusions about a star’s life cycle or the presence of life-supporting elements in distant exoplanets.
Environmental Science and Carbon Footprint
In environmental science, studying the carbon emission spectrum allows for the quantification of carbon emissions from various sources. This plays a significant role in assessing human carbon footprint and devising strategies to combat climate change.
Carbon Emission Spectrum and Climate Change
The Greenhouse Effect
The carbon emission spectrum also has implications for understanding climate change. Carbon dioxide, one of the primary greenhouse gases, traps heat in Earth’s atmosphere. Its presence and quantity can be identified through its specific emission spectrum.
Understanding Carbon Dioxide Emissions
Human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels, contribute significantly to carbon dioxide emissions. Understanding the carbon emission spectrum aids in monitoring these activities and their impact on our planet’s climate.
How Industries Affect the Carbon Emission Spectrum
Fossil Fuels and Carbon Emissions
Industries that rely heavily on fossil fuels significantly alter the carbon emission spectrum. These industries, which include power plants, transportation, and manufacturing, are a major source of carbon dioxide emissions.
When fossil fuels are burned, carbon atoms are oxidized, forming carbon dioxide. This process releases energy and generates an emission spectrum characteristic of carbon dioxide.
Impact on Climate Change
The increase in carbon dioxide emissions from industrial activities enhances the greenhouse effect, leading to global warming and climate change. The elevated levels of carbon dioxide can be detected through its distinct emission spectrum, signifying the extent of the industrial contribution to global warming.
Industry Solutions and Clean Energy Alternatives
A shift to cleaner energy alternatives can significantly reduce industrial carbon emissions. These include renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and hydropower, which do not produce carbon emissions during operation.
By promoting and adopting these technologies, industries can reduce their carbon footprint, thereby lessening their impact on the carbon emission spectrum.
Role of Technology in Carbon Emission Spectrum Analysis
Advanced Spectroscopy Techniques
The application of advanced spectroscopy techniques has greatly improved our ability to analyze the carbon emission spectrum. Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) are examples of technologies that allow for a more precise and efficient analysis of emission spectra.
These techniques can detect even minor changes in the carbon emission spectrum, aiding in various fields from astrophysics to environmental science.
Future Technologies and Machine Learning
Emerging technologies aim to further refine our understanding and interpretation of emission spectra. Machine learning algorithms are being developed to analyze large spectroscopic datasets quickly and accurately.
These algorithms can identify patterns and correlations in the data, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the carbon emission spectrum.
Spectral Imaging for Emission Monitoring
Technologies such as spectral imaging provide a powerful tool for monitoring carbon emissions. For instance, satellite-based spectral imaging systems can continuously monitor the Earth’s atmosphere, capturing changes in the carbon emission spectrum on a global scale.
This information can be crucial for understanding and managing human impact on the environment.
Role of Nanotechnology in Spectroscopy
Nanotechnology is opening new frontiers in spectroscopy, including the study of the carbon emission spectrum. Nano-enhanced spectroscopic techniques can enhance the sensitivity and resolution of spectral measurements, enabling detailed analysis at the nanoscale.
This holds promise for diverse applications, from material science to environmental monitoring.
The Importance of Understanding the Carbon Emission Spectrum
The carbon emission spectrum serves as a vital tool for understanding our universe and the environmental impact of human activities.
Its study provides invaluable data for a range of fields and holds promise for future scientific and technological advancements.
Why is the carbon emission spectrum important?
The carbon emission spectrum is essential as it helps identify the presence and quantity of carbon in various environments, from distant stars to our atmosphere. It also aids in monitoring carbon dioxide emissions, which is crucial in addressing climate change.
How does the carbon emission spectrum relate to climate change?
The carbon emission spectrum is used to identify and quantify carbon dioxide emissions, one of the primary contributors to climate change. By monitoring these emissions, scientists can better understand human impact on the environment and develop strategies to reduce carbon footprints.
What is the role of quantum mechanics in the carbon emission spectrum?
Quantum mechanics explains why atoms emit light at specific frequencies. It states that electrons in an atom can only exist at specific energy levels. When an electron transitions between these levels, it emits or absorbs energy in the form of light, producing the characteristic lines seen in emission spectra.
How does technology aid in understanding the carbon emission spectrum?
Modern spectroscopy techniques and technologies enable more precise and efficient analysis of emission spectra, including the carbon emission spectrum. Future technologies, such as AI and machine learning, promise even quicker and more accurate analysis of large spectroscopic datasets.
How does industry affect the carbon emission spectrum?
Industries that rely heavily on fossil fuels contribute significantly to carbon dioxide emissions, which can be identified through the carbon emission spectrum. Shifting to cleaner energy alternatives can help reduce these emissions.
What is the relationship between the Sun and the carbon emission spectrum?
The Sun’s light contains dark absorption lines known as Fraunhofer lines. Among these lines are those corresponding to carbon. Scientists can therefore use the carbon emission spectrum to determine the amount of carbon in the Sun.
The carbon emission spectrum, a product of the quirky quantum world, serves as a vital tool in understanding our universe and the environmental impacts of human activities.
From star-gazing astrophysicists to climate-conscious environmentalists, this barcode of the universe has much to offer.
By promoting its study and application, we can foster scientific discovery and work towards a sustainable future.

Assessment of efficacy of critical view of safety (CVS) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in avoiding the occurrence of bile duct injury
Dr. Ajay Kumar
Background: Diseases of the gallbladder commonly manifest as gallstones, gallbladder inflammatory conditions and gallbladder cancer. Cholecystectomy has been gold standard surgical treatment of Cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. The critical view of safety (CVS) is a method of target identification, the targets being the cystic duct and the cystic artery. Hence; the present study was undertaken for assessing the efficacy of critical view of safety in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in avoiding the occurrence of bile duct injury.
Materials & methods: A total of 75 consecutive patients of gallbladder disease were included in the study. Complete demographic details of all the patients were obtained. Hematological and biochemical profile of all the patients was done preoperatively. All the procedures were performed under the hands of skilled and experienced surgeons. Post-operative assessment of all the patients was done.
Results: Aberrant anatomy was found to be present in 1 patient, where as it was absent in 49 patients. Critical view of safety was achieved in 100 percent of the patients of the present study. Aberrant anatomy was encountered only in two cases case. Those cases were converted into open cholecystectomy.
Conclusion: Critical view of safety method of ductal identification is an effective technique.

title: Who are we?

text:
Who are we?
We are education enthusiasts with a long-term vision who founded the first early education school in Lithuania in 2018. Eureka grows with the children and in 2023 we happily opened the doors for the primary school students.
Why do we do this?
We think that the basis of the world’s sustainable development is learning evolution. We believe that Eureka contributes to this global change by providing modern education and continuous improvement.
The uniqueness of Eureka
Discovery Based Education
It is unique due to the systematically created conditions that allow children to discover something new every day: an object, phenomenon, natural feature, emotion, country, etc. This creates a continuous and engaging experience of exploring the world, encouraging the little explorer to be curious, eager to learn, and discover.
Children at Eureka learn a second language daily, naturally, just like their native language – by absorbing it from the verbal environment and real-life situations. To encourage such language practice, teachers present at least 20% of the content in English every day.
We have developed a model of an all-day school where children have an opportunity to improve in one place. In our school, children not only study according to Eureka’s program but also have time to relax, participate in non-formal education, receive individual consultations, communicate with friends and eat healthy food.
The concept of Harmonious Education
It is a holistic system for developing the personality of a modern child, implemented by harmonizing different educational dimensions.
Sustainable Thinking Education
In Eureka, the integrated educational content is based on the sustainability goals set by the United Nations. We learn sustainability principles through a connection with nature and the environment, the use of recycled materials, and project-based activities. Eureka’s environment, unique educational tools, and professional teachers encourage children not only to boldly explore the world but also to understand the importance of friendship between humans and nature.
Eureka’s spaces are adapted to the needs of the little discoverers and their educational activities. Children have not only modern classrooms and active activity spaces but also enclosed courtyards designed for the little ones.
We aim for every child at Eureka, by discovering themselves and the world around them, to create their own Personality
A rapidly growing community
Eureka started in Kaunas when we opened our first early childhood classroom in 2018. Since then, we have grown into an international community of more than 300 families. Our organization employs over 100 professionals and modern education enthusiasts who contribute to fulfilling Eureka’s mission every day by fostering the school’s values. And we continue to grow—both qualitatively and quantitatively.
We believe that sustainability is not a final goal, but rather a continuous path of growth and improvement. After achieving our set goals, we always strive for new, even more ambitious heights. But what does this look like in Eureka’s daily activities?
At school, we carefully sort waste and use recycled materials to create interesting and useful educational activities. We all conserve energy together while also caring for and nurturing the school’s green spaces.
We use paper sparingly, writing on both sides and storing unused paper in separate boxes so that we can use it in the future. We choose environmentally friendly cleaning products to maintain a clean and healthy environment.

Frequently asked questions
Whats the difference between our 'Vinyl' stickers and 'Fabric' Wall stickers?
Our range has 2 core products. The vinyl stickers come in 26 predetermined colourways and will always be an outline or shape. They are removable but wont always be repositionable/ reusable.
The Fabric range is a unique canvas like product with a removable glue on the back. Its very sturdy and you can peel and restick these as long as they dont get covered in dust and hair. We print on the fabric - which means the designs we choose for this are typically Illustrations or multiple colours of our choice.
Are our Wall Stickers removable?
Yes. This is essentially how we started our business. We have a background in signwriting and we witnessed other companies using high tack products and we hated the idea of peoples wall being destroyed. So we set out to find a better solution - which meant we were the first in NZ to import and dedicated wall sticker product.
We do have to acknowledge however that if your wall hasnt been painted and primed correctly it can sometimes cause an issue.
How many packets will I need for a standard size wall?
All of our packets of wall stickers contain a generous amount to cover any standard size wall, depending on the look you would like to achieve.
Most of the time two packs is enough for a full wall - but it depends on how much space you place between the stickers.

Breast Stupa Topiary, 2561/2018
Noen Nom Sao or Thung Nom Sao is the name of an area where the flower fields are not close to the entrance of Jim Thompson Farm as this entire area features Pinaree Santhapitak’s exhibition. Pinaree Santhapitak is one of Thailand’s most important female contemporary artists creating international works.
Breast Stupa Topiary is the name of the artwork that Pinaree created for Jim Thompson Farm. This work clearly reflects the identity of the artist by bending the metal line to look like a breast or many stupas. By presenting the issue of women, the nature of motherhood or femininity It also creates a relationship with the sanctity of Buddhism. These steel frames are located in the middle of the flower field, ready to be climbed by various vines and peach varieties. Looking at it, it invites you to think that this work is part of nature or is like a symbol of the abundance that blooms to create beautiful things for the world, just like the role of motherhood giving birth to a child with the expectation that they will create good things.
Pinaree Santhapitak is a Thai female artist who has a very important role and influence on contemporary art. Her approach to her work is distinctly unique in her studies of femininity, motherhood or womanhood, working in various forms, including painting, sculpture or installation art. Her work has featured inThailand and abroad, such as Puchan Biannale in 2008, the 18th Sydney Biannale in 2012, Bangkok Art Biennale in 2022, etc.
The work of the harp is often abstract. Presented through various materials that are assembled into simple shapes to give the audience the opportunity to consider independently, such as breasts, cups, pots, pillows, mats, etc. The breast is a distinctive identity in the work of the harp as it is an important symbol that conveys the female body. At the same time, it is similar in shape to the stupa pagod, it is like a part of the body of Buddhism. It reflects the closeness of a person with the mental anchors. It also shows that the body is like a sacred thing. Vessels and other objects often reflect ways of life, stories, memories, making the audience feel that they are close to art through various possessions encountered in everyday life.

Litigation Lawyers in Beach Park
In Beach Park, Illinois, a civil deposition is a part of the discovery process in civil litigation.
The discovery process in Beach Park, Illinois is one of the most important parts of the civil litigation process. During the discovery phase, each side of the lawsuit is required to make all of the relevant information it has in its possession available to the other side.
One way to acquire this information in Beach Park, Illinois is to conduct a deposition. A deposition, at its core, is a fairly simple process. A deposition is a question and answer session conducted outside the courtroom. Normally, it takes place in the office space of an attorney representing one of the parties. There are a few people who are almost always present at the deposition: there's the person being deposed, the lawyer who is going to be asking the questions, a lawyer representing the other side of the lawsuit, who can object to any questions being asked (a judge can rule on the objections later), and a court reporter or video recorder, to ensure that the testimony ends up on the record.
Conducting A Civil Deposition in Beach Park, Illinois
In Beach Park, Illinois, the main reason to conduct a deposition, as opposed to having someone testify in court, is to save time. After days of depositions, the jury can be presented with just the relevant testimony, if the case goes to trial. Furthermore, it's a good idea to conduct a deposition if there's any reason to believe that the witness will not be able to show up to court to testify, due to poor health, or any other reason.
So, it shouldn't be shocking that civil depositions in Beach Park, Illinois can usually go on for several days. If you are subpoenaed for a deposition in , Illinois, you are normally obligated to appear. This can be a source of some inconvenience.
To help mitigate this inconvenience, Beach Park, Illinois authorizes witnesses who are appearing in depositions to be paid a set amount of money for their time, and reimbursed for travel expenses. However, if there is any evidence that this money is being used to influence a witness' testimony, there is going to be a serious problem: this would amount bribery, and it is a serious offense.
When giving a deposition in Beach Park, Illinois, be sure to answer all of the questions honestly, and to the absolute best of your knowledge. You will be sworn in before the deposition begins, and you will be under oath, just as if you were in open court. Therefore, if you lie, you are committing perjury, which can land you in jail.
How Can A Beach Park, Illinois Lawyer Help?
If you are directly immersed in a lawsuit in Beach Park, Illinois, and have to appear at a deposition, you should already be represented by a lawyer. It goes without saying that you should do whatever they advise you to do during the deposition.
If you are not directly immersed in the lawsuit, you might still have to appear at a deposition, if you have information that's relevant to the case in Beach Park, Illinois. You probably don't need to hire a lawyer in that case, but it might be a good idea to at least get a consultation from one.

Ethylene glycol is a colourless, odourless, viscous dihydroxy alcohol. It is the simplest aliphatic dihydric alcohol with chemical properties of alcohols as it is capable of generating ether, ester, be oxidized into acid or aldehyde as well as be condensed to form ether or be substituted by a halogen. It has a sweet taste but is poisonous if ingested. Ethylene glycol is the most important glycol that is commercially available and is manufactured on a large scale in the United States.
1. Direct Hydration
Industrial production of ethylene glycol is by direct hydration of ethylene oxide. Ethylene oxide and water undergoes liquid-phase hydration reaction at 2.23MPa and 190-200â„ƒ to produce ethylene glycol and other by-products like diethylene glycol, tripropylene ethylene glycol and multi-uret poly ethylene glycol. The dilute ethylene glycol solution obtained is then condensed, dehydrated, and then refined to obtain qualified products and by-products.
2. Sulfuric Acid Catalyzed Hydration
Ethylene oxide can react with water, in the presence of sulfuric acid catalyst, at 60-80â„ƒ and 9.806-19.61kPa to generate ethylene glycol. The reaction mixture is then neutralized by liquid alkaline and then evaporated to obtain 80% ethylene glycol, which is then distilled and concentrated to obtain 98% of the finished product. However, due to the presence of corrosion, pollution, and product quality problems, as well as complex refining process, countries have gradually discontinued this method and instead change to the direct hydration method.
3. Chlorohydrin Method
Chloroethanol is taken as the raw materials for hydrolysis in an alkaline medium. The reaction is carried out at 100â„ƒ and at 1.01 MPa to generate ethylene oxide.
Ethylene glycol is mainly used as the antifreeze agent for preparation of the automobile cooling systems
The ethylene glycol can be supplemented to the hydraulic fluid and can be used for preventing the erosion of oil-based hydraulic fluid on the rubber of the system. The water-based hydraulic fluid with ethylene glycol is a main component in an inflammable hydromantic fluid and can be applied to the moulding machine in aircraft, automobiles, and high-temperature operation.
It is the raw material for the production of polyethylene terephthalate (the raw material of polyester fibres and plastics material).
Ethylene glycol can also be used as an alternative of glycerol and can often be used as hydration agent and solvent in the tanning industry and pharmaceutical industry.

Best update so far! However, I ran into a connection issue a few moments ago. I disconnected for a few seconds and when I reestablished the WiFi connection seconds after, it only showed that yellow wifi sign signifying I was connecting and my ATC was usable again. However, live traffic remained invisible and the yellow wifi thingy didn’t go away regardless of my connection.
I had a similar issue today also. My best guess is that the server is being stressed by the sheer number of people flying.
If you click on the “yellow WiFi” it should show you which parts of the server are still connecting - weather, live server, API service and global server.
It was the Live Server
The rest was green
Good to hear that it’s probably not an issue from my side then!
I’ve sometimes found that after an internet outage, the “live server” does take a little bit longer to get back up on its feet. I think that’s a function of how speedily it can connect via your internet.
Alright, as long as a staff member hasn’t got a solution, I am simply gonna wait a few minutes longer after this happens. This time I waited around 3 minutes.
This happened not to long ago actually. It was a server overload/stress.
I have people periodically disappear. Not all the time, but occasionally, just briefly (e.g. they haven’t just left). I’m presuming its comms between the server for one of us.
Do other people get this ?
(I have wondered if IF is extrapolating positions for these brief disconnects)
The exact same issue is occurring to me too! It’s probably due to the load onThe servers,it’s VERY busy today!
Figures. Have a look at Heathrow. There’s umpteen aircraft there.
Willing to hazard a bet most of them are A330s :)

title: Black community struggles to trust providers for mental health needs

text:
As the concept of self-care is surging in popularity within our society and the Black community, doctors say there still remains a rise in mental health issues worldwide that has yet to be adequately addressed, in particular, amongst Black people.
In an effort to shed light on the challenges, August is recognized as Global Black Mental Health Awareness Month. According to research from the American Psychiatric Association, Black people are disproportionately affected by mental health issues. In facts an estimated 20 percent of people living with mental illness are Black —a number that researchers say is likely being underreported.
BlackDoctor.org spoke with Dr. Nicole Washington who is a member of Black Psychiatrists of America who says the time is now for the Black community to address mental health.
“We have to talk more and build narratives around our mental health struggles. It is time to talk about this in a matter of fact way and take some of the stigma and taboo out of these struggles. We hide these things because we want to appear strong but there is strength in vulnerability,” she explained.
As Blacks are being urged to seek help for any and all mental heath, there is yet another obstacle impacting Blacks that centers around the healthcare providers. According to research conducted by JAMA Network, physicians who are responsible for treating Black people often lack the cultural competency and compassion to properly diagnose Black people dealing with mental health issues. In fact, only 2 percent of the nearly 40,000 psychiatrists in the United States are Black. The racial disparities in healthcare often means Black people seeking treatment for mental health experience lower healthcare quality and negative outcomes.
“There aren’t enough people of color to provide services and frankly a lot of Black people would be more comfortable talking to someone who looks like them. The system has done a lot to lose the trust of Black people in this country,” Dr. Washington said.
Researchers also point out that various mental heath struggles facing Black people worldwide can be distinctively different from other races. Researchers agree that because of the history of enslavement and discrimination in our society it is necessary to consider historical context to better understand the mental health of Black people.
According to the National Institutes of Health, although Blacks have similar or lower rates of common mental disorders than whites, mental disorders are more severe, persistent, and disabling among Black people. In addition, Black people are also less likely to utilize psychiatric services, and if they receive care, it is usually of lower quality than care provided to whites.


title: Merchant cash advances

text:
Do you need immediate financing? Are you finding it hard to get loans because you have some bad credit? It does not matter which one is the motto for you to check out the option for the business loan advances, make sure you don’t settle down with the wrong one. There are different types of merchant cash advances available in the market. Toronto especially is a very hot market for many upcoming businesses in Canada to make their mark and establish their presence. Getting a loan processed by the bank poses a significant challenge as they have more intricate demands. Merchant lending and private vendors are the most common people many small businesses turn to who need quick cash loans with less hassles and paperwork. Dealing with merchant cash vendors has its own challenges and merits too.
Many financial advisors in Canada believe you should never settle down with the one that takes the maximum interest and finance your money for a very short period as well. To help you find the best financing options, here we have gathered some of the best tips for getting merchant cash advance. If you run a small business and are in dire need of money, then you should keep these things in your mind before you go out to get loan for your business.
Don’t Run Negatives
Before offering you the financial help, 2m7 and many other business cash advance companies will check your bank account details to try to calculate the transactions and underwrite an advance. During this process, the professionals of the company will check the previous and the current transaction history of your business. If the merchant lending company finds the history of bounced checks and insufficient funds, they might deny you any funding to be processed.
The reason is that the funding company will expect that you will pay back your loan in the due time. If your bank details show that you previously have problems meeting your financial obligations, they might not trust you enough to lend the necessary money.
Keep A Strong Daily Balance
There is no doubt that you must make sure that your business does not incur a negative balance if you are thinking about getting the funding. However, if you are to get the best rates from the professionals of 2M7 – A Merchant Cash Lender in Canada, you have to keep your average daily balance as high as possible.
According to the professionals, when a merchant financing company finds out that the small business has the sufficient balance to meet their daily needs constantly, they are much likely to offer you the money at a much lower rate and for a longer-term. Having a lower daily balance robs you from getting that opportunity in the first place.
Robust credit Scores
Credit score is an important metric in Canada. Your credit score is the reflection of your payment habit to your creditors. You have to consider the merchant cash advance companies as your new creditor to understand this point perfectly.
Being your probable new creditor, the professionals of merchant cash advances have all the rights to check your credit score to find out how much risk they are taking. The signs of delinquency and insufficient cash history are some of the factors that help them to understand that you are a too risky candidate to extend loans.
So, if you are thinking about taking the help of the 2M7 – A Merchant Cash Lender in Canada, then you should keep your credit scores as high as you can.
The records or delinquencies work as a big red flag for most of the merchant cash advance companies. At the end of the day, the funding company has only one goal; to get the money back with interest after providing financial help. However, if the financing companies discover that you have issues of returning payments to your past creditors, they will most probably decline your request. So, if you are to get the financing, make sure to pay your other creditors on time. Credit Score is a good indicator of where your current financial portfolio is. Hence maintaining it at over 700 is a strong recommendation to keep your financial portfolio clean of any red flags.
Request Weekly Payments
While most of the merchant cash advancing companies require the clients to pay the money daily, there are some other modes of payments that you can explore. You can request the company to schedule the payment on a weekly basis instead of on a daily one. This simple step can save your business from struggling with the daily strains of money that the merchant cash advance companies can create on your business.
Get Early Pay Addendum
A merchant cash advance is not a regular loan. It is a sale of the future receivables of the company. That does not mean you can’t save some of the profits you make by paying the Lender in Canada off early. Most of the merchant cash advancing companies offer some sort of discounts if the clients pay their loaned amount early. The ranges of savings due to the early payoffs can range from 5-15% depending on the company and the amount of balance cash advances.
Dealing with loans and finance is always a sensitive matter especially when you are taking loan from a picky vendor who may bother you with constant reminders. Also, don’t make the deal with the first company that you contact. Check the rates and the deals of the different companies and then choose the one that suits the requirement of your business perfectly. Even though most merchant cash lenders offer money, many vendors have ways of processing the application and some may not even require much introspection.
So, these are some of the tips that you should keep in mind while requesting financial help from the Merchant Cash Lenders in Canada. It’s always advisable to consult first before taking a big step

How Can Illiteracy Be Solved?
When we ask how can illiteracy be solved, we must understand the factors that promote literacy. The different factors that contribute to illiteracy can be approached in different ways. Organizations and governments are familiar with these factors, and many programs worldwide are working to solve this issue.
Globally, we enjoy an 86% literacy rate, which is an incredible increase from the 12% of 1820.1 However, there are still 773 million people who do not have enough literacy skills to complete daily tasks, such as reading street signs for public transportation.2
The number one contributor to illiteracy is poverty, followed closely by gender bias, meaning more women than men are illiterate worldwide.3 This means that to solve illiteracy, poverty must be addressed. If a family is merely trying to survive day to day, schooling will fall lower and lower on their list of priorities even if they understand how important it is.
GFA World has two programs that impoverished families in becoming literate:
1. Child Sponsorship Program
Through a $35 per month sponsorship, GFA World’s Child Sponsorship Program provides community-wide solutions that provide children and their families with key resources and support such as nutritious food, medical care, clean water and tutoring assistance. These key essentials help families keep children in school which is essential to breaking generational illiteracy.
2. Income generating gifts through our Christmas Gift Catalog Program
Through the Christmas Gift Catalog program, donors can choose gifts which GFA missionaries distribute all year long to impoverished families earn extra income. For example, with the gift of a cow, the family can make ghee from the milk and sell it. Or with a piglet, the family can breed the pig and start a herd. With these extra forms of income, their children can stay in school and learn to read and write as they should, taking those skills into adulthood to secure better-paying jobs.
You can become part of the solution of illiteracy by sponsoring one of these precious children. Only costing $35 a month, your monthly gift can help provide the key support for children who may otherwise be roaming the streets or plowing a field. These children will be able to stay in school, something their parents maybe never have had the opportunity to do. By staying in school, they will be able to learn to read and write and so much more. These are the keys to stepping out of poverty and into higher education or skills-based careers. This releases their own children, and hopefully generations to come, from illiteracy and poverty.

title: In valencia a modern kitchen blends with the spirit of the place

text:
Timeless design and innovation converge in the kitchen renovation of a single-family villa nestled on the outskirts of Valencia. The new layout, modern yet functional, has been carefully crafted to meet the owners' present-day needs, while still preserving the home's original soul. The chosen model for this transformation is Genius Loci, a kitchen designed to honor the memory of the place through tactile effects and refined details.
The challenge for the Valcucine Valencia | Metrocuadrado team was to blend the new design seamlessly with the villa's existing architectural elements, maintaining a perfect harmony between past and present. Original features, such as the marble floor with its elegant black-and-white graphic motif and the exposed brick wall, guided the entire design concept.
These elements, rich with history, inspired the selection of colors and finishes, establishing a serene connection between the old and the new. The floor dialogues with Vitrum, tinted in similar hues, and with the natural Cardoso stone, which enhances both the countertop and the under-counter drawer of Genius Loci. The glass finish amplifies the contrast between marble and brick, reflecting light and imbuing the space with an unmistakable, authentic character.
A further challenge of the project lay in the optimization of the operational space: not one, but two islands were designed to elevate functionality.
The layout of this modern kitchen divides the areas for cooking, washing, and preparation, ensuring perfect ergonomics and fluid movement, even when multiple hands are at work.
Yet the design never loses sight of the social aspect: the kitchen is not merely a space for cooking, but the very heart of the home, meant to be lived in throughout the day. To this end, a cozy corner with seating and stools was created, an inviting space to work, unwind, or savor a coffee while someone else tends to the stove. Completing the project are high-end appliances, including a column wine cellar, in perfect harmony with the owners' passion for fine wines.
The team at Valcucine Valencia | Metrocuadrado approached this modern kitchen's renewal as an act of stylistic continuity, selecting pure materials and sophisticated finishes that blend with the home's existing atmosphere.
The fusion of Vitrum, natural stone, and solid wood brings coherence and elegance to the space, transforming the kitchen into a sanctuary that celebrates the timeless balance between innovation and memory.

This year, in the face of increasing right-wing antipathy to ethnic diversity, the San Francisco International Arts Festival has found its rallying cry in a line from German dramatist Bertolt Brecht: “In the dark times, will there also be singing?”
To that end, performing artists from 15 different countries join forces with American counterparts at this year’s festival in two busy weeks of music, dance, theater, and performance art. The flood of events includes One Day We Will All Be Happy, a darkly humorous play from Russia’s famed Meyerhold Theatre Center, epic drumming from the Shanghainese GuGu Drum Group, and ABADÁ Capoeira San Francisco’s high-spirited images of resistance fusing traditional and contemporary Brazilian music, dance and martial arts.
Since its birth in 2003, SFIAF has championed overseas artists who were not yet well known in the U.S. — like British choreographer Akram Khan — and nurtured vital cross-cultural and genre-bending experiments. An important part of this effort is the festival’s strong focus on Asian voices during the second week of the event at Fort Mason. Here are four highlights.
In Visible Light by Gamelan Sekar Jaya
Among the offerings is a world premiere from the Bay Area’s Gamelan Sekar Jaya under the direction of master Balinese musician I Dewa Putu Berata and dancer Emiko Saraswati Susilo, in collaboration with American shadow puppet master Larry Reed. Reed fuses traditional shadow puppetry techniques with modern theatrical animation to create live cinematic effects.
This new work, titled In Visible Light, deploys shadow puppets, dance, voice, and Balinese gamelan to tell the tale of a tyrant “whose arrogance,” program notes inform us, “poisons the rivers of knowledge, arts and culture, casting the world into chaos.” Fighting on the side of justice and enlightenment is Saraswati, goddess of arts, language and learning. The plot speaks broadly to the rise of authoritarianism – including the seismic rumblings in Indonesian politics from Islamist vigilantes who are threatening democratic institutions in the world’s largest Muslim country, long known for being a mostly secular, pluralist society.
Gu Jiani’s Right and Left
Light and shadow is also a vital component of Chinese contemporary choreographer Gu Jiani’s Right and Left, a spellbinding meditation on the power dynamics of an intimate relationship. Gu’s silky, brooding interactions with partner Wang Xuanqi unfold to a soundtrack cobbled from fragments of electronica, Chopin, and the experimental acoustics of Dawn of Midi. Framed and manipulated by the eerie lighting effects of projectionist Ah Ping, the dance appears to comment on the erosion of trust in a relationship that is constantly under surveillance by shadowy figures.
Gu belongs to a rare breed of independent choreographers in China, where the state overwhelmingly controls funding for the arts, and where the crackdown on freedom of expression has intensified since Xi Jinping assumed the presidency in 2013.
From the Top by Victor Fung
The long arm of Chinese censorship reaches to Hong Kong – a territory whose freewheeling capitalist system has, in theory, been shielded from the mainland’s authoritarianism by the “one country, two systems” principle invoked at the 1997 handover from Britain. Notwithstanding this promise of autonomy, Beijing has increasingly imposed its authority over the territory, provoking mass protests. Hong Kong artists like Victor Fung, however, enjoy freedoms and funding support unheard of on the mainland, while political frictions continue to fuel their creativity.
Fung’s piece at the festival, From the Top, takes a jab at the power politics of art. The work made a splash at its Hong Kong premiere two years ago. On the surface, it’s a hilarious romp about a pair of long-suffering dancers browbeaten by a pretentious choreographer. But From the Top also plays with the idea that meaning in art is often sabotaged by the artist’s ego. In the dark times, Fung suggests, you can’t always trust the artists.
Scarabe’s Sell Our Body
Japanese experimental dance troupe Scarabe tackles ego and the commodification of art in the latest incarnation of an ongoing project starkly titled Sell Our Body. Earlier works under this title have enlisted duos, trios and casts of thousands in various site-specific settings. This version is danced by the three co-founders of the troupe. Izumi B Fujii, Yukio Miyahara and Mikiko Shinohara are alumni of the iconoclastic contemporary dance company Noism. Their work, the epitome of ‘Japanese cool,’ straddles various European dance traditions and the worlds of modern art, Japanese theater, performance art and fashion.
As Japan recovers from the Fukushima disaster, it grapples with serious environmental issues, aggravated threats from North Korea and China, a rapidly aging population and deeply rooted gender inequality. Young artists like those of Scarabe are at the forefront of exploding popular myths about a homogeneous and compliant Japanese society, often standing up to traditional power structures.
The 2017 San Francisco International Arts Festival runs from Wednesday, May 31 through Sunday, Jun 4. For tickets and more information click here.

title: There are several types of keycaps what s the difference

text:
If the shaft determines the basic feel of the mechanical keyboard, then the keycap is the icing on the cake for the user's feel in use. Keycaps of different colors, processes, and materials will not only affect the appearance of the keyboard, but also affect the feel of the keyboard, thus affecting the experience of using the keyboard.
Although the keycaps of mechanical keyboards can be replaced freely, the price is relatively high, and the price of some limited edition keycaps can even be compared with high-end keyboards. Although the materials of mechanical keyboard keycaps are usually plastic, different materials There are different characteristics between them, and there are many other special material keycaps, which are favored by enthusiasts. The price of just one keycap can reach thousands of yuan.
The keycaps of common mechanical keyboards can be divided into three materials: ABS, PBT, and POM. Among them, ABS has the highest usage rate in mechanical keyboards. Whether it is a popular product of several hundred yuan or a flagship keyboard of thousands of yuan, you can see it. to ABS figure. ABS plastic is a copolymer of acrylonitrile (A)-butadiene (B)-styrene (S), which combines the properties of the three components, and has the characteristics of high strength, good toughness, easy processing, etc., and the cost is not high .
It is precisely because of these characteristics that ABS has been widely used. Due to the relatively mature manufacturing process, the produced keycaps have the characteristics of regular craftsmanship, exquisite details, and uniform texture. ABS is not only excellent in workmanship, but also feels very good, extremely smooth.
PBT refers to a type of plastic composed of polybutylene terephthalate as the main body, and has the reputation of "white rock". Compared with ABS material, the processing technology is more difficult and the cost is higher. The material has excellent strength, wear resistance and high temperature resistance, and the shrinkage rate is small during injection molding. The processing technology is relatively mature, and it can be processed by secondary injection molding and other processes to achieve the purpose of never dropping characters. The keycaps made of PBT feel dry and tough to the touch, and the surface of the keycaps has a fine matte feel.
Compared with ABS, the biggest advantage of PBT is that the wear resistance is significantly higher than that of ABS material. The time limit of the keycap made of PBT material to oil is obviously longer than that of ABS material. Due to the complex process and relatively expensive price, keycaps made of this material are usually used in mid-to-high-end keyboard products.
Due to the large molecular gap and high temperature resistance of the PBT material, the keycap made of this material has another feature, that is, it can be dip-dyeed with industrial dyes. After purchasing white PBT keycaps, users can dye the keycaps with industrial dyes to make their own unique colored keycaps. However, this kind of operation is more complicated, so it is recommended that if you want to dye the keycaps, you can buy a small batch of keycaps and practice your hands, and then dye the whole set of keycaps after you are familiar with the process.
Although the wear resistance of PBT keycaps is higher than that of ABS materials, it is not the hardest among common mechanical keyboard materials, and there is another material that performs better than PBT in terms of hardness-POM.
The scientific name of POM is polyoxymethylene, which is a kind of synthetic resin, which is a polymer of harmful gas formaldehyde in home decoration materials. POM material is very hard, very wear-resistant, and has the characteristics of self-smoothing, so it is often used in the production of lightweight parts. Due to its own material characteristics, the keycap made of POM has a cold touch and a smooth surface, even smoother than the oiled ABS material, but it is completely different from the sticky feeling of ABS after oiling.
Due to its large shrinkage rate, the POM material is more difficult in injection molding. During the production process, if there is improper control, it is easy to have the problem that the keycap assembly gap is too small. There may be a problem that the shaft core will be pulled out. Even if the problem of too tight cross socket at the bottom can be solved well, due to the large shrinkage rate of the material, a certain shrinkage texture will be formed on the surface of the keycap.
KEYCEO can customize ABS keycap mechanical keyboard, custom game PBT keyboard, POM keycap keyboard.
