Hi , Iskander ! Was in the soviet army service from 1976-1979 . Truly I had totally different experience. I served as a sergeant too . First “they” sent me(not only me ,was 5000 guys ) so far from home – 10000km. Was good , so-so or bad , Was different people ( like every where and always ) . But not so bad as you say.(this is my personal story). I was radio station commander . To learn this stuff from scratch for 2 month we worked 12-16 hours a day( no weekends) but it was necessary – you know. After school real army , and real work, work , work. On our ”point” was 20 mans and we leaved like a family . Our locators followed any aircraft and another stuff on our part of border with Iran etc . And I think Soviet army wasn’t so bad professionally as you say. I think generally it was a good army. Regards

Hi guys! What you think about it: **************************** Canadian Companies Should Outsource to China Interview by Donna Guzik The recent strength in job creation in both Canada and the United States won't be the trend for the near term. Economic growth will come from productivity, not jobs says Export Development Canada Vice President & Chief Economist Stephen Poloz | Summary | Transcript | Click to Listen | "It will be silly for Canadian and American companies not to take advantage of low-cost producers in China." Transcript IC: Welcome to InvestorCanada.com. I’m Donna Guzik. For a look back at the week’s economic numbers, I’m joined now by Stephen Poloz. He is Vice-President and Chief Economist at Export Development Canada. Stephen, first off, employment numbers in both Canada and the United States surpassing expectations. Let’s start with Canada. The job creation in October, over 65,000 jobs, much greater than what economists have predicted. Is this a one-month wonder or are we looking at the beginning of a trend, do you think? Poloz: Well, I don’t expect this to be the trend we’ll see in the near term. I think we’re going to see, especially manufacturers working to reduce their head count or at least contain that. And the GDP growth will come from productivity in Canada rather than in jobs growth. IC: In terms of the manufacturing side, are you expecting to see job improvement at any time soon there? Poloz: Well, it’ll be a mix because obviously, over the next 12 months, we’re going to see stronger growth in the world, more demand for Canadian products; but at the same time, Canadian companies are facing the first regular position for the Canadian dollar in a long time and they’ve got to adjust to that level. And that’ll mean working hard to boost their productivity to remain competitive on international markets. IC: Well, certainly the numbers that came out did help the Canadian dollar. What do you see happening for the value of the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar and how will it affect exports? Poloz: Well, we think that the natural place for the Canadian dollar to be is between 73 and 75 cents. That would be a characteristic normality when the rest of the world is back to normal, which is how we see 2004 shaping up. And so if it goes above 75 cents, as it is barely at this moment, I see it as a bit of an overshoot, a temporary thing that will ease back. As we see the US economy gaining its credibility, people are now beginning to believe that the US is capable of maintaining its expansion. IC: Looking at the job growth in Canada and what seems to be more growth in the United States, what do you see the Bank of Canada doing on December 2nd with regards to interest rate decisions? Poloz: Well, I don’t think there’s any need to be raising interest rates just yet, although you never really know. What we know is interest rates are below normal and the world is getting back to normal. So at some point between now and a year from now, interest rates will be noticeably higher. When is the right time to begin that? It depends on a great deal of issues, particularly in the United States. It looks like Mr. Greenspan is going to take his time. Inflation is very low so there’s no rush for him to move interest rates up. Nevertheless, I think by spring, he’ll be moving. IC: Well, the US job numbers of course were much higher than expected as well in October and September’s numbers were revised higher. Is this finally the job growth that everybody has been waiting for in the United States? Poloz: I expect it is. My interpretation is that most of the job reductions that we’ve seen in the US over the last almost four years now in the manufacturing sector have been caused by the strong US dollar and the fact that it’s come back to more normal levels against most currencies means that a lot of that pressure is off, the manufacturing sector has produced fantastic increases in productivity as a result of their efforts. And now, I think that they can relax a little more and as the economy picks up speed, they will add staff. IC: But regardless if the economy does pick up, has the manufacturing sector changed? Has there been some overall shifts whereby companies are producing without as many workers as they had before and learning that they can do that? Poloz: Essentially, I’d say they’re leaner and meaner. Part of that is because they’ve upgraded their equipment. But another part of it is they’ve gone global. We’ve had a very big increase in off shoring in the US. This is how you get Chinese workers to work for your company for 25 percent of the cost of our workers. That’s by incorporating China in your supply chain. And many American companies have done that. That boosts their productivity and their profitability and it means now they’re positioned for growth even better than they were before. IC: Do you see more of that happening whereby American and perhaps Canadian manufacturers are outsourcing those jobs to not only China but India and that those manufacturing jobs in North America will slowly disappear? Poloz: I do see that as a trend and in fact, I would expect to see more of it from Canada now than we’ve seen in the last couple of years because the Canadian dollar has gone back to its more normal level, and now, if you like, it’ll cost a Canadian company 20 percent less to make an investment in China than it did a year ago. So that’s a good deal for those companies. So we’ll see more of that happening. But you have to bear in mind that that’s how a Canadian company will boost its business and thereby generating more jobs of the other types in its organization. IC: So is there going to be a shift in the kinds of jobs, in the kind of employment we’re going to see in the future? Poloz: I do indeed. That’s exactly right. It will be silly for Canadian and American companies not to take advantage of low-cost producers in China. That’s how they can compete, improve their price point and grow their business. *************** Regards

Hi! We are not buzy. China take over all moldmaking industry. But i am not blame China, i blame our goverment.

Hi Ying! Thank you for reply. Yes by this mpmaster i can get stock value for surface machining , but what about contour or pocket machining ? Regards [ 05-16-2003, 12:21 AM: Message edited by: mikhael gutman ]

Hi ! I would like to use “STOCK TO LEAVE” value for setting up mode for high speed machining automatically in G-code . So idea is : pull out stock value ,compare with limits of stock and in depend of this limits and my “stock to leave “ value get spatial codes in my g-code generated by post. I would be really appreciate any help to get stock to leave value in G-code which from ver . 8 came as new option but I newer see it working. Thank you in advance

Hello! I have had problems recently on a couple of jobs when filtering/arc in surf. contour finish toolpaths. Cutter deviate in surface which represented as regular cone(so really simple) The surface finish is good with no filtering (long program). Arc fitting ,if properly done, should improve the surface finish.
