Session 189 Video Analysis

So before I get into the next session, I have decided to do an extensive look into the last few videos that I saw because OH BOY there was a lot to discuss in there. Hell, I didn’t even now that the video was 14 Minutes Long because I was so absorbed into in.

So after a careful rewatched, here is what I got from last time. (please bear with me, I tried to put my thoughts in the most cohesive was I can but it is long as fuck)

(I also use a lot of pictures to prove my point, so prepare for that too)

First, I never fucking meant for the shaving cream to actually hit. I mean, I hoped and dreamed, but that was to hit Jack not Jade! Y’all are just mean.

[S] Cascade

To point out the title, in programming, to cascade is where you can call multiple methods on the same object at the same time. So, literally all of these events and stories are happening at the same time of one thing – The Scratch.

K so it looked like what Scratch said about of the boys needing a sword is bullshit, because John is doing just fine scratching the disc with the SBURB needle cutter thing, that cut the power cylinders.

John did good. Scratch complete. Just like Dave’s Fucking Shirt!!!

Why the hell is the Shadow Dark God there? It is just…watching. How did you even get down there??

I mean, later on we get to see what the Dark God looks like up close. I too would be like Dave and try to do anything I can to look away. At least they also get nuked.

So that beginning out of the way, let’s get this heavy piece of information out of the way.

The Scratch literally had nothing to do with Jack going into the Troll Verse. It was Jade, all Jade.

Jack hated frogs, and the universe is a Frog, so he wants to kill the universe (multiverse, etc). But he couldn’t, because Jade was alive. As long as she lived, the universe was safe. Because killing the universe would mean that Jack would kill Jade.

But with Jade dead, it was all free game.

Hence the red lines I saw from before just tearing up the place. I thought they would be more…nicer, than what was actually going on.

But before he goes off on his murder spree, it was nice of Jack to place Jade in the god bed before going off to destroy everything.

Does that excuse anything he did? Hell Fucking No. But this is a sign of respect, where Jack spent so much time with Jade that the feelings of Bec really did consume him to caring for her, in whatever way he could. Which was not killing everything until she died.

So here he is, to go into the Frog Shrine (the same one where Bec was created) to lock himself into the flower.

And course the flower that jack was in was old and rotten. He literally is Cancer.

But it was also the same meteor that crashed landed millions of years ago to create Jade’s Island. So Jack still was by Jade while she grew up. I have mixed feelings about that.

Then we zoom to the future where Future Jack launches his attack and Current Jack now awakens.

Rotten flower blooms of death

And Jack murders people. That Guy basically amounted to nothing. Unless that notebook he has was another DNA codebook, and somehow managed to last and survive into the new dimension world, then maybe he had a point. Maybe.

This part was especially cruel, because Mayor was afraid of Jack, was spared by Jack on a whim.

Only to be killed later on.

Because the Scratch isn’t what caused Jack to go into the Troll-Verse. It was Jack all along. He needed the radioactive power crystal to give him enough energy to break out of the Frog and outside of its universe.

See, this machine would teleport a person either into the frog, into the future universe after the frog, or into the universe before the frog.

And we all know what happened then.

So let’s move on to the bomb, in all of its glory.

And you see the bomb like dripping away to hatch out a chemistry set. It was gross watching it melt away.

And these tubes have to be the universes of the Humans and the Trolls, right? Because 1) When we were zooming in/out before the start of Act 5.2 (you know, when I kept yelling at space) we zoomed out of red and into blue. Matches the two universes that Sollux saw with his eyes, etc etc.

2) We zoom into Red – We see Earth, Zoom into Blue – We see Alternia.

So the bomb is like the ultimate kill switch where it will kill Both universe at once, or activates when both universes die, either way.

How did the Troll’s Universe Die? Well we see Spades shoot Snowman.

Which is badass because Spades knows that killing her kills the universe and he gives no shits here.

Pierces through her heart, the heart of the universe, and there is one universe down. Scratch was fucking right, his shitty gun with one bullet was what was needed to kill everything.

See? Both universe die, so the bomb is going to work.

I have to wonder though, if the Former Black Queen was forced into this life of immortality like how Scratch and English is going to force Ancestor Feferi and Aradia.

So the beds are slightly confusing to me, because the rules weren’t exactly what we thought it was before. So Original Idea: You die on the bed, get revived in your dream body. That was what happened to John. But Witch Jade, she was already dead

so either as long as you put the physical dead body on the dream bed, then you are still awaken to your Dream Body.

(will talk about you in depth later, but this does explain Hussie Cosplay choice from before)

But then you have Dave and Rose, who were already in their dream bodies. (Jack killing Dave and Rose before)

Here they are floating in Cthulhu space.

And inside their own moons were more beds. Again, they are already in dream bodies when they reach here.

So my ideas is this: because Scratch said that there were two ways to become gods, but both require you to die on a bed.

You either find the bed on the planet in your physical form, “sleep” there by dying and awaken to god powers in ultimate dream body.

Or, you are asleep in Dream Body with no Physical Body. Dream Body is your only body. You find the Dream Beds on your Dream Moon in your Dream Body. And you die “awake” and revive to be gods.

And the reason you need your Dream Body, no matter what oath you take? Because it is everyone’s dream to be a god.

And can I just say how it is cool that the Prospit Kids became gods in the same way, and the Durse Kids because gods in a different way. I just like that.

Now let’s talk about Jade’s path to godhood.

The only reason why her path on the planet bed worked was because of Jadesprite. Her Dream Body was still technically alive, because it got revived. If it didn’t, Jade would have died. So reviving herself was the best choice.

Which gives me questions. Because now Jade literally has all the knowledge of the game from the sprite, all the powers of space from her dog, and has fused back with her other formerly-dead Dream Self. So, does she still have her Dream-Self memories? Does she remember talking with Davesprite, how she felt/what she saw while dead?

But now, she has the powers of all of fucking space. That is adorably frightening.

Yeah, I would be shocked too. Also, Jade just sort of left him there.

There she goes on the ship, but Dave is just still there. Not even going to bother to join up I guess. Or Float fast to reach her. And Jade doesn’t even think about, grabbing him as she leaves. Just, thanks for leaving him behind Jade. Not everyone is a super god like you.

Sure she is still saving him by picking up the planet, but shouldn’t he at least be given like crew status on your Space-breaking ship?

See? She teleported John to the ship!!!! Davesprite got screwed.

I love her being able to gather up all the planets by shrinking them, as a Witch of literal Space and have them around her. But more importantly because it just destroys Scratch’s shitty doily and I love that.

I also love how the buildings are still there. Like, making the planets look like giant lollipops.

But Jade creating the 4th wall panel for them to bust through was beautifully done. And so clever, because they are literally jumping together to reach the other side before the reset happens, so they can still keep their memories. Back to before the beginning.

And they bust through in the exact same panel and spot that Ancient Aradia was beating the chair on.

Now For Something Completely Different

ok, I get that Gamzee was important in making nightmares come true

In making Cal. And that the creation of Jade-Sprite did literally change the world with God-Jade. But I don’t think that Gamzee is the most important character, at least not in reference. Like, what he has red and blue antennas in his head for a good signal in the computer? Naw, the “most important character” Hussie is talking about has to be Cal. Or English? Is there really a difference? Because Cal because Scratch and…sort of…Evolved to Lord English.

Because he is talking to Scratch. Last Words are “oh yeah? AND JUST WHAT THE MOTHER FUCKING IS IT that we motherfuckin are?”

Scratch: “S u c k e r s”

So Cal really was the evil villain we made along the way.

With the heat-death of the universe from The Tumor Bomb finally blowing up, English makes his entrance, and Dave & Rose become Gods. But it now looks like the “green sun larger than two universes” was actually the combined destruction of both of their universes merged into one. Who knew.

I mean, that Explains how Rose and Dave reached Aradia at the Green Sun. They were just waiting for the right time.

Gang found the signal (Gamzee was manipulated by the puppet can’t tell me otherwise) time to blast off!

I think that the reason Sollux was able to psychic power his way to the green sun was because of this Sollux

One of Sollux’s dead bodies was already there, and acted like a beacon for the other Sollux to latch himself onto to drag them to the green sun.

Of Course, this means that history I guess repeats itself. Sollux died pushing himself as the helmsman like his ancestor. And when he died, the time bubble shit didn’t work as well for him since they were at The Scratch Event. So Sollux’s body was thrown back in space by Aradia to help with leading the trolls there. That was why he was binary in black and white, from this moment.

They were both blind so Karkat had to point them in the right direction, that’s funny.

Now let’s move on to PM

Can you imagine being her right now? She was forced to go into this quest by Jack when he was the beady like secretary. She completed her for Jack for the rabbit package at the cost of basically fucking the white kingdom (in her mind). And now she faces him again after years in exile in yet another form.

Watching him kill her friends.

Safety man deserves better.

And she drags Mayor out as Jack destroys yet another world she lives in.

But then she finds the ring, and

Time to Fuck Jack Up!!!

But look at that, she took his body. She took his body with her. The power in that right was so great because of Jade that it automatically teleported her to the place she needed to be. Because I doubt that she would have taking the body back inside the machine after pulling Mayor out.

So that is the end of Cascade, leaving behind basically a burning universe for the hope of another chance.

[S] Begin Intermission 2

So this was the rise/creation of Lord English. If you haven’t seen my video, boy do I have thoughts on him.

Scratch was a literal fucking host. God that made me so mad. No wonder you had to die, like some messed up parasite.

I still can’t tell if that is supposed to be a roulette wheel or a pool stick or what, but it gaudy enough to match your trash style.

Because thank god you needed you aesthetics of stealing Hussie’s robe he stole from you. Other wise Team Human might not have busted through.

But look at this guy? I am supposed to be afraid of him?? He looks like a snapper turtle who got cooked in his shell.

He looks like someone tried to make a shrunken skull of a Namekian while on the Namekian.

He looks like if a human and a spider alien tried to make a relationship work, but then when they saw the child, they just left him in the woods and agree to never call each other again.

I mean, the comic was going on about how terrifying he is. And maybe his power is terrifying…… but his head hatched into that of a puppet head that got a seaweed facial that somehow melded into his skin so he is perma-green.

He is like if a puppet got Hulk powers, but has so many health issues you can’t even begin to think of a treatment to help him.

It’s just, it is hard to take him so seriously when I can make so many jokes about him.

[S] Act 6

There isn’t much to say about this video. They are in an alternate dimension. This is if the roles of the kids and the adults got switched around.

Jane Crocker has to be like the granddaughter of John. And it even looks like she has some items from the other dimension too

I see that shitty ink stain, you can never disappear can you? Not even in another dimension.

It looks like the kids in adult form also took on adult roles. Alternate-Rose is another genetic scientist that is studying the 4th wall.

Alternate Dave actually because a popular comic artist. Good for him, I hope this Dave has a better life.

I have to wonder if the god-tadpole they made is still in the volcano.

And the who galaxy is in her eyes. So idk if that means that the new universe is within her, or if she is just seeing space right now.

But I am more intrigued in this set up. She has a Troll Exile. Or at least type in Alternia. And the symbol is the doctor Hippocratic oath stuff. And it is a troll because

Troll Hands.

So yeah…that was all of my in-depth look at the videos I saw yesterday.

Blood Collection Tubes Manufacturing

A Blood Collection Tube Manufacturing is of BCT/ Vacutainer which is a sterilized glass or plastic test tube with a coloured rubber stopper which creates a vacuum seal inside the tube supporting the draw of a fixed volume of liquid. It is also referred to as the “Vacutainer”. Vacutainer tubes consist of additives which are designed to preserve the specimen earlier to the accurate testing.

These tubes or containers have a security planned plug with en number of labelling alternatives and draw volumes. The shading on the top shows the added substances of the containers or tubes. Vacutainer tubes may contain extra substance that preserves blood from preparing in a medical research laboratory. Utilizing an inappropriate tube can make the blood test unusable for the intended purpose.

Furthermore, some tubes contain added substances that save certain segments of or substances inside the blood, for example, glucose. At the point when a tube is centrifuged the materials inside are isolated by thickness, with the platelets sinking to the base and the plasma or serum gathering at the top. Tubes containing gel can be effectively taken care of and moved after centrifugation without the platelets and serum blending.

Types of Blood Collection Tube

No Additive Tube – This tube is used for collecting blood and storing it for biochemistry, serology and other tests. It provides non-contaminated serum samples for clinical tests, keeping the serum stable for an extended period of time.

Serum blood collection tube – This tube aims at giving high-quality serum sample for medical technologies. It has 3 kinds of tubes: no additive tube with & without clot activator and brick red cap.

Hemo Repellent Coated tube – blood collection and storage for biochemistry tests, silicon are used. It is appropriate for a broad range of operation, quick in coagulation. These blood cells don not stick to the side of the tube.

Gel + BCA – such tubes are used for clinical and biochemical immunology. There’s a barrier gel present inside the tube at the bottom. After the centrifugation, the gel can easily separate the serum from the cells without causing additives exchange between blood cells and serum.

Whole blood collection tube – this tube provides good quality of blood sample for the laboratories. It has 2 kinds of tube (ETDA) (ETDA.K2/K3 and ESR tube.

ETDA tube is used for haematology and also as various kinds of blood cell test instruments.

ESR tube is used for blood collecting and anticoagulation rate test.

Plasma blood collection tube – plasma blood collection tubes give a high quality plasma sample for medical laboratories. This includes 3 kinds of tubes:

Blood Collection Tube Manufacturing Process

Moulding machine

The moulding machines are used for making small plastic tubes which are made to collect a blood sample in it. The moulding machines can be of many different types, like an electric moulding machine.

Component Cleaning

Component cleaning or parts cleaning is significant to all industrial processes as a preparation for the surface finishing or else to protect the essential components. Electroplating is generally a sensitive part of cleanliness since the molecular layers of the oil can keep the adhesion of the coating.

Blood Collection tube Assembly line

An assembly line has to assemble cleared blood collection tubes with various tubes sizes. The limit of the basic line layout is 200parts/minute and it carries all process from feeding and sorting of the tubes to the caps/closures and dosing of all kinds of testing agents. There are two types of BCT assembly line,

Automatic (fully)

Semi-Automatic

Secondary packing (Gamma Sterilization)

Sterilization is a process that efficiently kills or deletes all the micro-organisms like bacteria, and other viruses. There are various types of sterilization process that depends on the type of material and its sterilization process.

Quarantine (Finished Goods Store)

Quarantine period or process helps to assure that there is no defective or infectious product which is reaching to the consumers.

Blood Collection Tube Manufacturing Machinery

BCT Cap and stopper Combination Machine

Blood Collection Tube cap machine is used for inserting the rubber stopper cap into the plastic cap for blood collection tube cap. It has 24 pcs of assembling punches with two sets of vibration material loaders, which exactly fit the rubber stoppers and caps running in one row.

BCT Labeling machine

In the packaging industries, stickers labelling machine is used for applying labels and stickers on products, containers, tubes, injections, and bottles etc. As labelling plays a significant role, these machines have a huge demand in the industries. There is en number of labelling machines available in the market according to their types and features.

Dosing machine

The dosing machine is an automated system for feeding the equipment with the products which contain liquid like lubricants and water.

Capping machine

Capping machines are used for applying the plastic and metal threaded caps as well as plastic snap caps, fitments, corks and plugs.

Centrifuge machine

A centrifuge is an equipment which pushes the object in rotating motion around the fixed axis with applying a force which is very strong. The centrifuge works with the help of the sedimentation principle, where centrifuge’s acceleration can cause denser substances and particles to move outwards in a radial position.

Shrink packaging machine

Shrink tunnels using a heated air system, it used for shrinkable films (PE POF PVC) that have been applied by L-bar sealers, sleeve wrappers, and sealing cutters. Planned for high production, the airflow method helps to circulate the air to avoid bubbles and bumps in plastic film.

The interest for blood collection could be hampered by dangers related to blood transfusion, for the most part in underdeveloped countries. In any case, there are a few awareness plans and crusades led by governments and outside people to handle this issue. The command of enlisting capable and qualified healthcare services experts could make great development prospects on the planet blood collection market. Besides, technological advancements in blood collection methods and items have opened a few entryways of chance for the key players in the blood collection market throughout the years to come.

Pex Pipe Installation

New Post published on http://roofnrays.com/pex-pipe-installation/

Pex Pipe Installation

One of the principles of effective design is the choice of right materials for a job, based on its requirements. If you consider hot and cold water plumbing, what are the factors that you must look out for in a material? Resistance to high and low temperature variation, resistance to chemical corrosion, durability and flexibility are the characteristics you should be looking out for.

What is PEX?

In case you have never heard about PEX, let me fill you in about the virtues of this material. PEX is cross linked polyethylene, which is well-known as a plastic polymer. The strength of polyethylene as a material is enhanced by cross linking and this derivative is tougher than its source material.

It can withstand temperatures ranging from freezing point to about 200 degree Fahrenheit. These are the exact characteristics that one wants to see in home hot water piping materials. So PEX is a natural choice when it comes to installing home plumbing. Besides the durability, what makes PEX pipe installation simpler than copper pipes is its flexibility. PEX pipes are available in inch, inch, 1 inch and 3/8 inch diameters.

How to Install PEX Piping?

Before we talk about PEX pipe installation, let me list out the things you will need for the job. If you need to transport the PEX pipe over a large distance in the house, you will need a drilling machine, PEX fasteners, hangars, straps and stud plates.

According to the scale of the project, you will have to determine the length of PEX tubing that is needed. Depending on length of tubing, you must purchase PEX straps and hangars. To make attachments at plumbing ends, you need crimp rings and PEX cutters, as well as crimping tools.

Under heating and cooling effects, a PEX pipe can expand or shrink. For a 100 feet PEX pipe, you can expect a shrinkage of 1 inch, for every 10 degree rise in temperature.

Let me now provide a brief summary of procedure for installing PEX tubing. Firstly you need to mark out the path on the wall, along which the PEX tubing will run. At appropriate intervals, you must drill holes for the metal fasteners to be fixed. After the metal fasteners are fixed to the wall, you must run the PEX pipe through it, after cutting appropriate segments from the 100 foot roll.

Using hangars and straps, you can make sure that the piping is firmly fixed. The last part is connecting the PEX pipes to plumbing attachments. This will require crimp rings to be attached at every end. The crimp rings should be fixed using a crimper tool, while taking care that it is at least 1/8th inch away from the pipe end. If you want, you may use a go/no-go gauge to check whether crimp ring is firmly fixed. That does the job.

Hope this brief summary of PEX pipe installation has given you a good idea of how to go about it.

Written by John Hertig on The Prepper Journal.

Survival is largely a state of mind. That being said, having some equipment and supplies with you can sure help. Often, this “stuff” is referred to as a “survival kit” or sometimes a BOB (Bug-Out Bag), GHB (Get Home Bag) or INCH (I’m Never Coming Home) bag. These can be from pocket sized up to a large (or perhaps too large) backpack, and even larger if a vehicle is available. One critical concept which is not part of any of these is EDC (Every Day Carry). This is not, and should not be, called any kind of “survival kit”. It is more a “life kit” which can have application in survival situations.

The name is highly specific. This is stuff you carry, every day. And you are willing to do so, because the stuff is frequently useful in everyday situations, of high importance during an emergency, and perhaps most importantly, not obnoxious enough to carry that you look for excuses to not carry it.

These points and the name itself provide a fairly precise guide to what kind of stuff to include in your EDC. Of course, there is no “list” which applies to everybody, since there are a wide variety of lifestyles out there. Instead, there is a process of analysis which can be used as a guide in designing your EDC.

The First Step

Actually, you probably already have an EDC. It is the stuff you “normally” carry in your pockets or purse. It is usually a really good starting point.

You likely have a wallet or equivalent, with your driver’s license or other ID, a credit card or two and some cash, as well as keys to your home and car. Now is a good time to go through these basics and throw out or remove anything which is obsolete. Then make sure that you do have valid ID as well as current medical and other insurance cards, your important contact information; including doctors and dentists, and other items you need for memberships, discounts, services and so on. A picture of your significant other is an important survival item, because some loved ones, if you don’t carry a picture of them, may kill you.

Add anything new but not in there yet, and replace anything which is expired or too worn to be useful. This is a task it would be wise to do yearly.

Money can be helpful in a lot of situations, so make sure you have a reasonable collection of fund sources. Credit cards can be of great value, but only if you are disciplined enough to handle them. If your situation does not allow you to pay the credit card bill(s) in full each and every month, you are better off not using them because they will increase the cost of most things you buy (interest, sometimes by 20% or more) and can get you into a deep hole (massive debt) it will be immensely difficult to get out of. If normal credit card use would be a problem, perhaps you can have a card for emergency use only which you never use or use for no more than one token charge a month to keep it active. Or perhaps it would be better not to have one at all if even that level of self-control would be a stretch. Debit cards can give you the convenience of a credit card without the risk of massive debt, but I don’t recommend them because they are a direct line into your bank account. If there is an error or someone else uses your number, you have to fight to get your money back as opposed to fighting to avoid paying the incorrect credit card bill. Guess which is more likely to be successful. If you have a debit card, have it be on a separate account all by itself, with no overdraft active and only keep an amount in that account you can afford to lose or at least do without for many months.

Cash is king, but it is sometimes obnoxious to get and is at risk of loss or destruction. Still, have some, particularly some small bills and change (for vending machines). For larger amounts of cash equivalency, Travelers Checks used to be the safer way to have significant funds, but these did have some down sides. American Express still offers them, but these days, an AAA cash card or pre-paid MasterCard gives you the safety of Travelers Checks with smaller fees, wider availability, more universal acceptance, and less of a replacement hassle.

Of course you have the keys you need, but keys can get lost or locked in. It would be wise to have a spare of any critical key.

For most people, a cell phone is part of their EDC. If not, why not? If you don’t like being tracked, keep it shut off. If you think you can’t afford one, I suspect you can find one which you can afford (including through government programs) for emergency use only.

I find that my wallet had too much critical stuff in one item which could be lost or stolen, so I split it into three. My wallet has cash (I try to keep it between $100 and $40), three credit cards, $200 in Travelers Checks (left over from the days when they were the only real option) and discount cards, rain checks and coupons. All my IDs, membership cards, contact information and photos are in a card case, with a small bill folded and hidden between some of the pairs of cards. And then I have a coin purse with coins and spare house and car keys. This has always proven to be a successful funding arrangement as long as I am in town with easy access to more resources. Whenever I leave town, I also carry a packet with some $100 bills and $1000 in Travelers Checks in a hidden pocket.

Why three credit cards? My primary one, which I use everywhere I can, should be obvious, but not every place takes it. My backup one is for when the primary one is not accepted. It is also the only one I ever use on the internet or over the phone. The third is from a particular store and it is the only one they accept, so that is the only place I use it, although it serves as backup to the other two. If I leave town, that third card is taken out of my wallet and kept separate.

Optimizing Your Current EDC

Once you have the “universal” EDC of ID, money, cell phone and keys completed, list everything else you normally carry. Consider not only how and how much you normally use it, but how it might be used in an emergency. See if there is anything which could be replaced by something just as useful in everyday life and more useful in an emergency. One area particularly useful to investigate is your cell phone; it is best if the one you carry not only reliably makes calls, but offers other functions you need normally or in an emergency.

Weed out anything which you never use and which would not be of value in an emergency. This makes your “current” EDC as optimal as practical. Hopefully some of the things from the next section are already part of your EDC.

Extending Your Current EDC

Now that you have tweaked your existing EDC, you should look and see if there is anything you can add which would support YOUR normal life as well as helping to extend it in an emergency. Here are some things to consider which would be invaluable in an emergency, and each would be of value normally for some people:

– Flashlight. I can count on the thumbs of one hand the days when I did not use my flashlight at least once. It would usually not be wise to go any bigger than a two cell CR123A light, and you can go as small as a watch battery powered “key-chain” light. AA and AAA batteries are easier to come by than CR123A batteries, but they are more prone to leaking and have destroyed several of my AA/AAA flashlights, and don’t put out as much light or run as long. I suggest a light with multiple brightness levels, so you can choose between a little light for a long time or lots of light for a much shorter time. In an emergency, consider how much more lethal or at least unpleasant the situation would be in complete darkness.

– Knife. I use a knife almost as often as I do a flashlight. Most days, there are fingernails to be cleaned, packages to be opened, labels to be scraped off, strapping to be sliced, food to be cut and other knife tasks. If allowed by laws and corporate policy, best is a single hand opening, locking, quality knife with a three to four inch blade, But whatever will do the tasks you need done and you are allowed and willing to carry should be your choice. In an emergency, a knife is invaluable, including defensive use if you have training in that and the knife is appropriate.

– Multi-Tool. If you don’t lead a technical life, you might not need one of these multi-tools. For the rest of us, these portable pliers, wire cutters, screwdrivers, file and saw, among other tools, are quite useful. Many also have a knife blade, which might allow it to serve in place of a knife. These tools are of use in many situations, “normal” and emergency.

– Lighter. If you smoke, you probably have this covered. Otherwise, you might not need this unless you do tasks which require heat/fire (i.e. using heat shrink tubing). Still, fire is a key requirement for some emergencies, so a mini butane lighter or a sealed “peanut” lighter or at least a ferrocerium bar is a good thing to have.

– Large (Engineer’s) Bandana. I normally use this as a sweat rag, dust mask, pad against heat or pressure, and a shade from the sun for my neck. In an emergency, it can do not only these functions, but also filter particulates from water, be used for first aid, carrying things, and if a bright color, signaling.

– Duct tape. A small piece often comes in handy, and wrapping a few feet around a small core does not take up much space. In an emergency duct tape can be used for first aid and other purposes.

– Paracord. Ten feet or so of paracord can serve as a leash, belt, shoelace or lashing. A convenient way to carry it is woven into a bracelet, key-fob, lanyard, or other object, as long as it is a “quick deploy” weave. The most common “Cobra” weave is actually a series of knots which takes forever to get undone. In an emergency, it can serve as a tourniquet, restraint or made into a weapon.

– Safety Pins. A couple takes no room, weigh nothing, and often come in handy. Add a needle and some thread, and you can handle repairs to clothing and equipment whether merely embarrassing or life threatening.

– Pen/Pencil and Small Notebook. For jotting down information you don’t want to forget, making lists, doing designs and leaving notes. In an emergency, the paper can be used as tinder to help start a fire and the pencil/pen as the windlass of a tourniquet. There are also “Tactical Pens” which are sturdy enough to be used as weapons if you are trained with them.

– Tape Measure. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m always having to measure things or estimate distances, and I’ve carried a small 10′ pocket tape for years. Recently I changed to a free one from my insurance company; it’s only 6′, but has both inches and centimeters. This is probably not of use in an emergency, though. And they wouldn’t let me into the courthouse with it. I guess they were afraid I might measure something.

– Magnifier. A Fresnel lens is the size of a credit card and can help you read “the fine print” or regular sized print if you don’t have your reading glasses or your eyes are strained. If you want/need more power, there are small folding magnifying glasses available. In an emergency, these also can be used to start a fire.

– Pair of Exam Gloves. These are good to protect your hands if you need to do something gooey, sticky or toxic, or avoid contaminating something. In an emergency, they can protect you from disease.

– Pair of Foam Ear Plugs. Not only can they help your concentration in a noisy environment, it protects your ears if you get into an environment with a harmful level of noise.

Final EDC Tweaks

Think back over the last month or so. Was there anything you needed and did not have readily available? How common was that need? What was the impact of not having it? Would that item meet the criteria for your EDC?

And lastly, consider your weaknesses. Is there a medication which if you miss taking or did not have available, would impact your health? Having a keychain pill capsule with a dose or three would be wise. Do you wear contacts? A lens case would be worth having in case you need to remove the lenses. Are you in an environment where you are at risk from other people? Defensive equipment may be indicated, but only if it is legal and allowed, you are trained in its use, and you are willing to put up with any annoyances involved in carrying it. Pistols are the most obvious choice, but if this is not a good match, there are also collapsing batons, knives, pepper sprays, tasers, stun guns, a cane or walking stick and some even more esoteric defensive equipment.

One thing to consider which is not of much use “normally” for most people is a whistle. Even if I’m not going anywhere near the outdoors, I like to have one readily available to scare off attacking people or animals, or if I happened to be caught in a collapsed building or become immobilized out of sight.

If you live “off the beaten path”, you may want to augment your EDC with some basic “survival” gear; in the city the only thing I carry only for emergencies is one of those Mylar space rescue blankets.

Oddities

Nowhere in the specifications does it limit you from including “weird” things. Things I carry which support the oddities of my lifestyle include a small pry bar, a tiny music/video player/radio with earphones, a few disposable “anti bacterial masks”, some Ibuprofen, a folding hair brush/comb, a folding tooth brush, an audio Bible, a “phone charger” battery with cables for everything, a small tablet, a small bottle of hand sanitizer, a small set of knife, fork, spoon and chopsticks, a small shaker of lemon pepper, a tiny tube of sun screen, a tiny tube of shampoo (I have no idea why I have it or where I got it, but there is was when I was going through my pockets), a Lightload compressed towel, and a earphone/microphone for my phone

Carrying Your EDC

Once you have selected your EDC items, lay them out and figure out how you are going to carry them. First choice, of course, is the pockets you have. Next best is a small pouch on your belt. Other options are a fanny pack or pocket vest (such as those from Scottevest, which is the only way I could carry all the stuff I do). It is not optimal, but a separate bag such as purse or computer bag will allow you to carry things, but might get separated from you.

As you work out how to carry things, you may find that some things just “won’t fit” and you will need to remove some items from your proposed EDC. Of course, this decision should be based on comparing its utility to the difficulty in carrying it.

Once you have what seems a practical EDC selection, try it out for several days, keeping an eye out for things which cause annoyance, are at risk for being lost or damaged or you decide just are not worth the trouble. Remove, replace or repackage things as necessary. Eventually you will end up with the EDC which is practical for you. Oh, and as you move forward through life, keep an eye out for things which you find out you do need, and would meet the criteria to join your EDC.

Blood Collection Tubes Manufacturing

A Blood Collection Tube Manufacturing is of BCT/ Vacutainer which is a sterilized glass or plastic test tube with a colored rubber stopper which creates a vacuum seal inside the tube supporting the draw of a fixed volume of liquid. It is also referred to as the “Vacutainer”. Vacutainer tubes consist of additives that are designed to preserve the specimen earlier to the accurate testing.

These tubes or containers have a security planned plug with en number of labeling alternatives and draw volumes. The shading on the top shows the added substances of the containers or tubes. Vacutainer tubes may contain an extra substance that preserves blood from preparing in a medical research laboratory. Utilizing an inappropriate tube can make the blood test unusable for the intended purpose.

Types of Blood Collection Tube

Serum blood collection tube – This tube aims at giving high-quality serum sample for medical technologies. It has 3 kinds of tubes: no additive tube with & without clot activator and brick red cap.

Whole blood collection tube – this tube provides good quality of blood sample for the laboratories. It has 2 kinds of the tube (ETDA) (ETDA.K2/K3 and ESR tube.

ETDA tube is used for haematology and also as various kinds of blood cell test instruments.

ESR tube is used for blood collecting and anticoagulation rate test.

Plasma blood collection tube – plasma blood collection tubes give a high-quality plasma sample for medical laboratories. This includes 3 kinds of tubes:

Blood Collection Tube Manufacturing Process

Centrifuge machine

A centrifuge is equipment which pushes the object in rotating motion around the fixed axis with applying a force which is very strong. The centrifuge works with the help of the sedimentation principle, where centrifuge’s acceleration can cause denser substances and particles to move outwards in a radial position.
