Lunch Time Breaking News: We got the Senate back!

Dem Victory, too soon to say.

Side note: N1 is still down with power breaker failure/bump.

Machine misfortune

Doug said "How do we be #1? Oh we were built first!"

That statement reflected the challenges and the daily fights on N1 in 2006. We need to examinate the machine inside out to find some anwsers to the runnability issues. Today the new item is moisture profile STINK.

Since my days at N1, I have seen numerous downtime related to STINK that hurt runnability, productivity and efficieny, quality and cost. Internal struggles are deposits, pre dryer breaks, wrinkles, seam breaks, profile. External factors are wrong starch to machines (L3), high turbidity etc and frankly... many more.

Long way to climb back to the top of world.
oh no... another outage.. gotta run.

Go huskie site!

Huskies Roberta sent this over. Go cougs. Then you may think, what's the dealio? After clicking at Huck the Fuskies, I couldn't stop laughing. You gotta give credit to the brain behind the site with its tasteless humor about HARRY.

Oh Deer! Round 2!

Coincident!
N1 went down with a failed aircap and I was in RC6, working with the Furnish operators. After several hours of rescue mission, I turned around and found that. Now Mr. deer is in a full safety compliance with all his PPE; to go beyond 100%, someone was trying to put on a respirator for him. Tomorrow his owner is on duty, we'll see.

Record in the making, not the kind I want.

Rain, rain, rain. What else is new? That's what happened when you and I live in the lowland. Flooding Warning

Oh Deer!

As I walked into RC6 this morning, I found a new decoration on the plain wall. I was told this is just temporary. Can you believe that?

The departed

Being a hard core AL fan, I finally saw the American cinematic version of " Infernal Affairs". Too bloody, too vulgar with the some frictional sexual content that the Chinese version lack of. Overall, I do think that they did a pretty ok job developing the plot with the final twist.

Port Townsend, WA

I decided to cruise to PT for the weekend insearch of the vital sign of my loving Coffee. It was emotional as I revisited the landmarks. Flyers were once again posted at major bulletin boards.

Beavers topple USC

Beavers defeated No. 3 Tojans 33-31!
Go Beavs! I still like Benny and Bernice.

EXtreme winter sport

Davie and I went to see Warren Miller's OFF THE GRID last night at Arlene S. NAH, we DID NOT win that monster JEEP!

The movie captured some very pretty mountains in Montana, Alaska and Salt Lake City. Maybe I will get to see SLC. Anyway, it also mentioned Yukigassen. Very funny.

Dead tired ~ round 3 ~ 歡樂今晚, 再會,各人觀眾, 晚安!

Oyasumi-nasai = Good night.
There will be more delays at the dryer section on the machine, my "red-eyed leader" instructed me to go home and so he can have my "fresh" mind in the morning at 7! Yipee! I guess no easy Friday for me! I hope things are running well when I come back in the morning.

Dead Tired ~ round 2

I am back! More actions.... sheet is at the press pulper!

Dead tired

N1 is half way being buttoned up again for operation. I officially have my 12+hours day. Just a quick break to say hello. I will leave the mill for lovely 2 hours and be back for start up so I won't violate the 1X hours work day rule! The pic is a vendor that I worked with. A fellow ChE. I did not suit up liked he did (He was wearing chemical resistant green suit and I just had my yellow gear) and let me tell you for what it worths...I did not miss it.
Ja mata(see you) in ni(2) hours!
