Auto firm spends R16m to upgrade parts store--------------------------------------------------------------------------------�Automotive company General Motors South Africa (GMSA) has spent R16-million on refurbishing its parts and accessories warehouse at its Port Elizabeth plant, which is set to increase productivity of employee's involved in the parts and accessories distribution processes.After sales director Dough Harrison said that GMSA had increased the warehouse productivity by 33% over the last 21 months and that it recorded almost almost 100% ontime delivery.“This is partly due to lean warehousing principles, which involves velocity and commodity stocking.”Productivity had also increased by introducing standardised work assignments, whereby each employee in the warehouse gets the same workload for each assignment.“We also placed special focus on the optimisation of ergonomics.

Seeking a pickup

Seeking a pickupTruck purchases in Texas turn flat this yearBy SHANNON BUGGSCopyright 2006 Houston Chronicle TRUCKS always sell well in Texas, but this summer they didn't sell as well as usual.Texas still leads the nation in truck sales, and dealers say they are are doing better largely because energy companies are going strong, as are related construction and services businesses where pickups are amust.But when domestic truck sales in Texas, the No. 1 market for full-size pickups, are virtually flat compared with the previous year, as they were in June, July and August, the national sales declines look even worse."We're not doing as well with full-size trucks as we did last year, but we're doing better in Texas and Oklahoma than we are in the rest of the country," said Earl Hesterberg, chief executive of Group One Automotive, a Houston-based national auto-dealership chain.That's because soaring oil prices in Texas and Oklahoma mean higher gasoline prices and more money flowing into and out of t

For example, a local artist could be brought in to teach an art class or have a local chef teach club members how to cook a specific dish."We would like the community to step in and give us a more Buena

少用公厕烘干机

Submitted by pvcblog on 25 September, 2006 - 13:26.

少用公厕烘干机 �� 很多公共卫生间都配有自动烘干机，洗完手后用暖暖的热风将手吹干，简单又方便。但最近的医学研究发现，卫生间里的烘干机是大量细菌滋生的温床，最好少用，否则会带来健康隐患。　　医学专家解释说，烘干机长期放置在温暖潮湿的环境中，本身就非常利于细菌的存活。另外潮湿的洗手盆附近有很多细菌，洗净的双手在吹风的同时，也会被附着在烘干机内部以及出风口处的细菌所污染。如果人们再用手触摸口、鼻、眼睛等部位，就会将病菌带入体内，从而造成眼部或呼吸道感染。有人认为烘干机吹出来的风都是热风，其产生的热量能消灭细菌，对此医学专家说，烘干机出风口的温度一般在60℃左右，这只会带给人温暖的感觉，并不能影响细菌的存活。因此专家建议，在公共场所洗完手后，最好用随身携带的消毒纸巾或手帕擦

Just got home after my first day at WD06. I decided that I should add something to MY OWN blog a bit more often (even though I'm not much of a writer!) Interesting day! I love fact that microformats are be promoted so much! Reason: I've been looking for years for tools to help event promoters provide data feeds from their own websites with all the information required for event listings in a machine-readable format. Yes of course most people add events to spraci by using the "add event" forms but there are some promoters out there who are so used to dealing only with street press over the years they assume websites also work the same way and think that if they send out a press release blurb there will be someone hired to type it in for a free listing. Of course in the real world that is not the case. However if those promoters already have their own website with listings of their upcoming events on it they coulld provide a data feed of their events which sites like spraci (and anyone else compili

专业化生产是我国数控附件发展方向

Submitted by pvcblog on 28 September, 2006 - 22:10.

专业化生产是我国数控附件发展方向来源：中国机械网　　我国数控机床功能部件最初是通过两个途径进行发展的。一是专业化附件生产厂家向数控附件生产发展，典型的产品有数控转台、动力卡盘、滚珠丝杠等。二是主机生产厂家自我研发配套功能性部件，典型的产品有数控刀架，国内大多数车床厂都经历了这个过程。　　　　从技术发展上看，数控机床技术向高速、复合、智能和环保方向发展，对数控刀架、数控转台、数控分度头提出同样的要求。在数控附件的高速化方面，烟台环球机床附件集团公司开发了AK36系列伺服电机驱动刀架，主要特点是采用伺服电动驱动，液压或气压松开夹紧，转位时间可调，最快换一把刀时间为0.15s，达到国外同类产品水平；TK13250M高速数控转台转速达到30r/min；复合化AK33系列动力刀架，采用模块化设计，动力刀具由伺服电机驱动，

How to Beat Pre-Holiday Stress and Save Big Bucks - How to Beat Pre-Holiday Stress and Save Big Bucks

Submitted by JaciRae on 30 September, 2006 - 01:08.

Every year stress is a main ingredient during the holidays. With Halloween around the corner and Thanksgiving and Christmas not far off, most of us think say the same thing to ourselves: This is the year I will shop early so I can avoid last minute shopping. I will begin the holiday season fully relaxed and enjoy it!

Yet every year time seems to slip away and suddenly the holidays arrive. You end up racing to the stores, panic-stricken, trying to find candy in the empty racks or a beautiful turkey for the dinner table that is now triple the price because the only store that has any left is the high-end market down the street.

Surely it is too soon to begin worrying about the Christmas holidays. Or is it? We have all felt the pressure and stress that comes from trying to buy holiday presents for everyone at the last moment, the strain that it puts on our finances, and we all resolve not to fall into the same trap next year. And yet, year after year, many of us find ourselves repeating the same situation. Now is the time to start making plans so that you can enjoy shopping and be stress free during the holidays.

Drinking and Drive a Deadly Mix by Jaci Rae - Is the rising cost of this industry becoming too much for your family to endure?

Submitted by JaciRae on 30 September, 2006 - 01:10.

51 Billion Dollars and rising! Sounds like a company a wise investor should invest in. After all, having a piece of a 51 billion dollar industry is an exciting prospect, filled with anticipation for the future right? Not this time. This industry takes away any hope for the future. Any promise of potential greatness is dashed to the ground, becoming ashes and dust when people continue to invest in this business. Warnings have been issued over the years advising people to avoid investing in this global industry. Still people chose to purchase the stock � some one share at a time, others in large quantities.
