CALLING ALL FORMER BAND MEMBERS This means Anyone who was a member of the Magrath School Bands or anyone who played in a school band in another community How would you like to dust off your embrasure, and renew old memories? How would you like to play in a band again? THINK ABOUT IT! Wouldn't it be a great idea to put together a community band to perform during the centennial celebration in July? Now don't think of reasons why you CAN'T participate - think of reasons why you SHOULD. We could rehearse evenings in the band room with the doors locked (so no one can hear us until we are ready). I can supply music that is within the ability of anyone - even those who haven't played since school. We can even supply some instruments. Let's have a meeting to discuss it. Call all the old band members you know and talk to them about it. Call me and let me know of your support or fears/concerns. We can do this and it will be a blast! Watch for an announcement for a planning meeting in the near future. Gerry Chatwin ****** Allied Arts Council The Bowman Arts Centre is accepting proposals for exhibitions for 1999/2000.

The Stingers were full of steam and the scoring spree started off with Chase Hofer & Devin Millward getting one goal each, they both got two goals each for the Stingers! Taylor Evans put the "wrap around" move on the other teams's goalie & came out the victor! Cody Foggin followed with one goal with an assist pass from Robbie Karren. Tyson Hudson played a great game with two goals both on fast paced breakaway. Carson Foggin played a tough face off center position and passed the puck to the team. Matt McClenan kept the puck out of our end and got the puck off to his teammates. Doran Johnson got a 1st time goal and brought the puck across the line and got his goal! Tyler Hansen passed and kept the other team on their toes. Some awesome goalie work by Taylor Evans and Nigel Atwood. One goal attempt by Picture Butte put Nigel on the run out of the crease & some pressure sent him scrambling back to the net to make the save! Nigel made the 11th goal and this ended the game 11-4.

The ancestors you find are a part of who you are Jacquie Bly — Coordinator WHY WE NEED TO KEEP OUR POSTAL SERVICE 1- GROWTH: Magrath (Federal Census) is one of the fastest growing communities in Southern Alberta. 2- LOCATION: the Post Office is the center of the town; the center of a large rural area that includes three hamlets, six Hutterite colonies with 500 people sharing 6 boxes, and some of the largest farming and ranching operations in Canada. 3- ECONOMY: Magrath's scheme for economic growth through master plans and development strategies has our Post Office as a key player 4- SHIPPING: Grain shipments from Magrath Elevators have been the largest from any single point several times over the past years. 5- TRADE: Magrath is close to a year - round accessible Port of Entry with the U.S.; economists and trade experts are predicting a shifting of trade and commerce from an East / West direction to North / South; we will experience substantial increases in freight, travel, and postal traffic through this area. We will require postal services that are capable of expanding to meet the increased demands; retail postal services in the comer of a convenience store will not be able to cope. 6- HISTORY: In 1988 Canada Post went through this same process when Cal Alston retired as Postmaster and they ruled in favour of our Post Office. In the past five years our population and business activity have increased. SPORTS NOVICE HAWKS We played an exhibition game on Saturday, Feb.27th, 1993 against Lethbridge.

LIBRARY SURVEY please stop in at the library or contact any of the Board Members. The Magrath Public Library wants to plan its new facility to best meet the needs of the community. Your opinions and answers to this survey will help. Please have your surveys in by Thursday evening March 4 th.BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT DELICIOUS CAFE owned and operated by Mark and May Wong. From the province Kwon Tung in China came twenty year old Mark Wong and his family, in 1951. They originally settled in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan where other relatives had immigrated to a few years earlier.. May, lived in Assiniboine at that time. Introductions by a mutual friend brought the two together at a function in Moose Jaw. May's father purchased the restaurant here in Magrath from George Lee. When his partner decided to return to China, May's father invited Mark to purchase the partner's interest in the business. So, in September 1955, Mark became joint owner of the DELICIOUS CAFE. He and May were wed in 1956. A few years later they did extensive renovations to the restaurant. Panelling was put on the walls; a new ceiling installed; new flooring and new tables as well. Over the years the tables have been modified and the floor has been replaced several times. A family owned restaurant demands long hours of the proprietors. Today, when most people their age are retired, Mark and May still put in a 15 hour day 6:00am -9:00pm. Their only time off is when they take a few hours on Sunday for a pleasant drive. Any morning you will see the street in front of the cafe lined with trucks and a few cars as their regular clientele have them up early to serve breakfast; a ritual that has been going on for many years. When the weather is poor or the streets dangerous for walking, Mark is treated to taxi service by “one of the boys". Obviously they value his cooking! Sand is also provided around the cafe so if Mark and May go out, there will be little danger of them falling. Mark says, "After you've been in business for so many years you make alot of friends; fellows like Frank Hufnagel, John Brunner, Walter Niznikowski, and Garth Veale, the town foreman". Mark and May have four children bom and raised here in Magrath. Melvin, their oldest, after a stint in Ottawa of two years with the government , was transferred to Edmonton, where he still resides with his wife Carina and their three girls. Myrna married Craig Wilson, also a student from Magrath. After many years down east, they returned to Magrath for a short time(1990-91) before moving on to Logan Utah with their two children Justin and Meghan. Craig is a partner in a construction business. Susan attended Lethbridge Community College in the field of Business Management. She and her husband Brent Hatton now reside in Edmonton where she manages a Lady Foot Locker outlet. Lisa their youngest daughter attended the University of Lethbridge majoring in Business Management. She has just recently married Ken Thomson, a boy from Magrath and they have chosen to settle in Calgary. Both Mark and May enjoy their home and gardening, planting many vegetables specific to the Chinese cuisine ie. bok choy.. May enjoys knitting and reading and obtains literature in the Chinese language from Vancouver, which she enjoys very much. Mark is an undiscovered artist. For years he has done pencil sketches whenever he has a few moments to spare from the routine of restaurant work. He also has done a little work with specially designed brushes and black ink. One such picture he entered in the Magrath Fair in 1988, winning second prize. At their request, Mark's pictures grace the homes of his daughter, Melvin Bingham, Joe Wipf of Hutterville as well as the Butte Feeds Ltd. 1980 brought thoughts of retirement. Although several people have shown an interest in purchasing the restaurant, no one has yet made a firm offer.. How much longer they will work they are uncertain; and with their children gone the work load is entirely theirs. With the support of their faithful regular customers, they are almost certain to continue until their health no longer permits or until they meet a serious buyer. Come in and enjoy7 their hospitality. They'd be happy to serve you a full meal or a small treat such as ice cream or pop. CAR POOL Would you be interested in joining a Car Pool going into Lethbridge? We have room for 1 or 2 riders in the Car pool leaving Magrath between 6:30 and 6:45 a.m. going to Lethbridge; and then leaving Lethbridge at 4:30 p.m. or so to come home.

a myopic policy for optimal inspection scheduling for condition based maintenance
Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 2015Co-Authors: Ji Ye Janet Lam, Dragan BanjevicAbstract:Abstract In this paper, we propose a decision policy for condition-based maintenance that schedules inspections according to the current health of the system, optimized myopically over the next inspection interval. In traditional condition-based maintenance practices, regular inspections are considered a given requirement. Most measurements, however, confirm that the machine in question is in Good Working Order and that no maintenance is necessary. We consider the possibility that there are savings to be had in the number of inspections that are undertaken. As such, we use a proportional hazards model for risk of failure and a Markovian process to model the system covariates. The cost and time of inspections are incorporated into our model, and an optimal decision for one interval is made. This process can be repeated for each decision point, resulting in a decision policy that produces an inspect-or-replace result and an optimal time for the next inspection. Applied over the life of an asset, this policy can be used as a complete condition monitoring program supporting evidence based asset management.

The effect of the pump flow and machine age on the Good Working Order of the atomizer
University of Zagreb. Faculty of Agriculture. Department of Agricultural Engineering., 2019Co-Authors: Plukavec JuricaAbstract:Orošivači su danas sve češće korišteni, no kao i svaki drugi uređaj za primjenu pesticida, oni moraju funkcionirati u potpunosti ispravno kako bi se pesticidi mogli točno i precizno distribuirati. Kod uređaja starijeg datuma proizvodnje često dolazi do nepotpune tehničke ispravnosti samog uređaja. Testiranjem različitih karakteristika orošivača, od kojih je protok pumpe najbitniji, želi se utvrditi utjecaj protoka pumpe i starosti uređaja na kvalitetu rada. Testiranje je provedeno u Sloveniji u Školskom centru Šentjur na 30 traktorskih nošenih orošivača. Za to istraživanje koristila se razna oprema (menzura, manometar, uređaj za mjerenje protoka, crijeva i slično) koji su uvelike pomogli kako bi se dobili točni rezultati koji će se analizirati. Testiranje se radilo na uređajima marke Agromehanika te marke Zupan. Orošivači Agromehanike, na testiranju, imali su BM 2 i BM 65/30 pumpu dok su orošivači marke Zupan imali BM 2 pumpe i AR 30. Na ovih 30 uređaja ispitivao se protok pumpe, starost uređaja, zapremina spremnika te sve ostalo bitno za ispravnost uređaja. Na kraju istraživanja moglo se zaključiti kako starost ne mora nužno utjecati na kvalitetu rada uređaja ukoliko se on redovito održava. S druge strane protok pumpe utječe na kvalitetu rada samog orošivača jer čim je veće odstupanje između izmjerenog i nazivnog protoka pumpe, dolazi do prekomjernog trošenja pesticida ili nedovoljno efikasnog tretiranja nasada. Uz to se može zaključiti kako protok pumpe te starost i ispravnost uređaja mogu značajno utjecati na troškove prilikom korištenja.Atomizers are frequently used today; however, like any other pesticide-applying equipment, they must function properly so that pesticides can be applied correctly and precisely. When it comes to older machines, one might often encounter faulty devices. By testing various atomizer possibilities – where pump flow emerges as the most important – one would like to claim that the pump flow and the machine age might affect its Working quality. Some tests have been done in Slovenia in the Šentjur School Centre with 30 tractor-mounted atomizers. Various equipment was used, such as manometers, gauges, flow measuring devices, hoses etc. This was extremely helpful since exact results had been measured and analyzed. Testing was conducted on Agromehanika and Zupan devices. Agromehanika atomizers, while tested, used a BM 2 and a BM 65/30 pump, while Zupan atomizers had the BM 2 and AR 30 pumps. These thirty atomizers checked pump flows, machine age, its capacity as well as all other important qualities a properly Working device has. After these test, a conclusion was reached that old machines do not always affect the Working quality, under the condition that the machine is properly serviced. On the other hand, pump flow does influence the atomizer Working quality, because if the variance between the measured and the named pump flow is too big, exaggerated pesticide application occurs or plantations are not covered efficiently enough. Therefore, one can conclude that pump flow and machine age, as well as the Good Working Order, can significantly affect the expenses while using it

Innovative tester for underwater locator beacon used in flight/voyage recOrder (black box)
'Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH', 2016Co-Authors: Pranjoto Hartono, . SutoyoAbstract:All commercial airplanes that carry more than 20 passengers and all sea merchant vessels with sizes above 3000 gross tonnage must be equipped with flight/ voyage data recOrders or more popularly known as black box. All black boxes aboard those vessels must be equipped with a completely independent ultrasonic sonar finder device called Underwater Locator Beacon (ULB). In case the device is immersed in water due to an accident, this device will emit ultrasonic signal at 37.5 kHz of a certain pattern for thirty days. The chance of finding the vessel (an airplane or a ship) sinking in the ocean is almost solely depend on the Working Order of this device. The voyage/ flight data recOrder performance must be tested every year per regulation of Air Transport Association/IATA (for airplanes) or International Maritime Organization/IMO (for sea vessels) under very stringent rules and regulations. For an airplane there are two data recOrders, which are the flight data recOrder (FDR) and cockpit audio voice recOrder (CAVR) and for a sea vessel there is Voyage Data RecOrder (VDR). During the annual performance test, the system will go very rigorous test in recording the data from all aspects of parameters in the sea vessels or the airplane for up to six hours. Unfortunately the ULB will only be tested – usually – by the technician for the voltage of the battery and also the expiration date of the battery only. The important part from the ULB – transmission of ultrasonic signal and pattern of the signal – is not addressed during the annual test, although this is one the most important factor in finding the vessel if she sinks in the deep ocean. The work presented here is about testing the ULB for its performance using simple system by the use of a microprocessor. The tester will check the voltage of the battery inside the ULB, the expected length of usage of the battery, the generation of the ultrasonic signal at 37.5 kHz, and also about the pattern of the signal. The device designed and built will be small and easy to use with Good visual and audio feedback to indicate the result of the UTB test. At the termination of this work, a Working system to test a ULB on the voltage and also detection of the ultrasonic signal has been built which is small and intelligent. The usage of the system is very simple, just by inserting the ULB into the system and pressing the unit for five seconds, a thorough result of the ULB test is presented on an LCD screen together with a blinking color light emitting diode (LED) and audible sound via buzzer to prove that the ULB under test is in Good Working Order
