    There are some important things to remember when judging Impossible films compared to the traditional Polaroid films you may be used to: this is NOT Polaroid film, nor does it pretend to be. None of the components to make original Polaroid film were possible to recreate or reproduce after Polaroid stopped making it and demolished the factories that made the original materials. This is a completely new film from completely new and evolving materials that are COMPATIBLE with classic Polaroid cameras. In about 1/3 of the time it took Polaroid to perfect and release the original SX-70 film and cameras, The Impossible Project has re-invented the process by which the classic integral Polaroid films functioned and has produced a very impressive product in pursuit of saving Polaroid-format analog instant film from extinction.

    Im 72 years old and this hot water bottle is a treasure. Ive been suffering residual nerve pain on one side of my face after a Bells Palsy attack, and while pain pills didnt seem to help, hot compresses brought instant relief. But it is a nuisance to soak a cloth in hot water, wring it out, and apply it to my face, only to have it cool off in a few minutes so that the process has to be repeated.

    Im never in one place for too long, due to military obligations. At first, I was a little shaky paying $2400 for a laptop. Being my first MSI laptop I wasnt sure what to expect. Upon arrival (which was pleasantly quick) I was happy to see that MSI did a fantastic job of packaging. It arrived without a scratch. Set up was decently quick. Once I got past all the initial set-up and adjusting the settings to my liking, I decided to give it a test. I downloaded a few of the newer games I knew would be demanding for a standard laptop. I was honestly shocked to see Fallout 4 (and many other games) run at maxed out settings. Its a whole different gaming experience I never thought Id see. No screen tearing, ultra settings, and the frame rate was fantastic. Honestly better than any previous computer Ive owned. If youre looking for a high end, beast of a gaming laptop. This is it. Look no further.

    After much research we went with this travel system for our son, weve been using it for almost 3 months and we absolutely LOVE IT. We did have an issue where we received the same back wheels for the L & R sides, they need to be different in order for the breaking mechanism to slide on properly, but after a REAL quick call to baby trend they sent us a brand new wheel so it worked out just fine....The one thing I LOVE about the infant seat is that it has an adjustment wheel on the back so you can simply turn it to move the straps/headrest part up and down, no hard pulling the straps through then re-looping them to a higher/lower setting. The stroller is super easy fold and open after some practice. GREAT travel system for the money for sure!!...This travel system was made in 2008, and it is new enough to have that latch mechanism for the cars so it is difficult to adjust with an older vehicle, we had to prop the base up with something so that the baby was reclined at the correct position. Thats the other thing, this seat has little holes on the side that indicate whether or not the seat is properly reclined on flat ground.

    Ive tried a ton of various teethers, and these hand and foot ones are the only ones my child seems to like! Hell spit out the others or stop gnawing at them after a few seconds, but these will actually seem to satiate him for quite awhile. He seems to prefer when they are frozen to refrigerated, and they freeze pretty quickly (can be unusable in under an hour). My only negative would be that they do also warm up after not too long (however, as these are the only teethers that hell use, I cant knock off a star). Plus, in this set you get four, so you can have a few in the freezer at once to throw into the rotation. I think he likes these because the material is pretty soft and light (even frozen), and both the hands and feet are easy for him to hold and turn around on his own, though not too big as to be uncomfortable for him.

Belden 1694A SDI Cable

The industry standard in serial digital performance

Since Blue Jeans Cable"s earliest days, we"ve been working with Belden 1694A SDI coaxial cable -- a high-bandwidth, low-loss SDI cable used by industry professionals for decades. 1694A is good for anything from standard-definition SDI all the way up through 6G, and will support runs in the hundreds of feet (see chart below).

The BNC: Canare BCP-B53

For connectors, we use the Canare BCP-B53 male BNC plug. This BNC is a three-piece crimp design with excellent mechanical stability and electrical characteristics, and features a broad grip surface for ease of use. It was designed specifically to fit Belden 1694A, and so its dimensions are ideal for a smooth cable-to-plug transition.

Product highlights:

  • 18 AWG bare ETP copper center conductor
  • Foamed HDPE dielectric
  • Belden Duofoil two-sided foil shield, overlain with 95% coverage tinned copper braid
  • Rated CMR; allows installation in walls and risers
  • Available in ten jacket colors
  • Bulk cable made in Richmond, Indiana; finished assembly made in our shop in Seattle, WA
  • Canare BNCs for excellent mechanical and electrical performance

SDI Cable: More Complex Than It Looks

Coaxial cable seems simple, doesn"t it? And yet, when high bandwidth is to be delivered, it"s anything but simple to actually manufacture a consistent, precision quality cable. Why is that?

Any transmission line has a characteristic impedance, and in the case of video cable, equipment invariably calls for that to be 75 ohms. The characteristic impedance of a cable is a function of its physical geometry and materials: especially the dielectric, that inconsequential-looking layer of plastic which insulates the center conductor from the shield. Characteristic impedance isn"t load impedance: you can take your ohmmeter to video cable and measure all you like, but you won"t find 75 ohms anywhere. Rather, the characteristic impedance of a line is a way of describing how its impedance affects the impedance of the load: the load should look like a 75 ohm load (not just in terms of resistance, but in terms of reactance) when it"s hooked up directly to the source, and it should look like a 75 ohm load if it"s hooked up through a run of cable, no matter the length. A balance of inductive and capacitive reactance – from the inductance and capacitance of the cable – achieve this end.

But, alas, it"s not so simple as looking at the massed values of inductance and capacitance for the cable run. Signals propagate down a cable over time – traveling at a significant fraction of the speed of light – and react to local conditions at every point along the way. Changes in the impedance as seen at any point along the line cause signal reflections – what we call "return loss" – and these add up, not only diminishing but actually interfering with the intended signal. Above all, what a cable needs, to minimize these reflections, is consistency: consistency of dimensions, even down to microscopic levels, and consistency of materials. If the density of bubbles in the dielectric varies, or a wire has been drawn over a wheel that"s out of round and so gets slightly bigger and smaller along the way, or any of a number of other little manufacturing issues, return loss rears its ugly head.

Belden, with its engineering center in Richmond, Indiana, knew these issues when SDI came onto the scene: it had been producing precision coaxial cables for other applications such as early digital telecommunications networks. And so while a precision video cable like 1694A might look superficially a lot like, say, a ten-cents-a-foot CATV drop cable, the engineering and the manufacturing resources that go into it are a world apart. Equipment is carefully maintained to eliminate small periodicities and inconsistencies in dimensions. Dielectric extrusion is continuously monitored during production to catch even small departures from tight tolerances. Everything from tension on braider wires to the consistency of foil overlaps to the amount of nitrogen going into the polyethylene foam is watched, and checked, and the final product is sweep-tested just in case something, somewhere, has been missed. The result is a cable of tremendous physical and electrical consistency.

And we at Blue Jeans Cable should know. We"ve handled millions of feet of the stuff.

The Stripper

Stripping cable is a critical step: dimensions that are out of whack will cause damage to the shield braid or result in a weakened mechanical connection. All of our coaxes are stripped on Schleuniger Swiss-made coaxial cable strippers, custom-programmed for the precise dimensional requirements of the cable and the connector.

The Resulting Strip

The resulting strip is clean and dimensionally consistent, for a perfect fit every time. The fast-spinning blades have cut the braid without fraying or disrupting it and the center conductor is just the right length for full engagement with the pin.

The Crimper

Instead of hand crimping we use these three-ton pneumatic presses; the straight vertical action of the press gives the crimp perfect symmetry, and the heavy force means no crimp is ever halfway-done.

The Finished Cable

All of these details -- conductor and shield and dielectric lengths just right, powerful crimping force using the specified dies, and careful handling and inspection by our experienced technicians -- mean that we can produce to the highest standards of assembly quality, day in and day out.

Blue Jeans Cable: Decades of Experience in Precision Cable Assembly

Blue Jeans Cable has been in the cable assembly business since 2002, with our primary manufacturing operation in Seattle, Washington. Today we occupy a small industrial building in the Interbay neighborhood where we employ about a dozen people in cable assembly. From the very beginning, we"ve emphasized assembly, not import: if we can build the cable here, rather than offshoring it, we do, and in addition to conventional assembly techniques we"ve introduced novel materials, methods and processes, like our ultrasonically-welded speaker cable. We can"t underprice our foreign competition, but what we can do is produce goods of consistent higher quality; to do that we use the best American-made cable and the highest assembly quality standards. To do that, you need experienced workers, and so we try to be the sort of place where people want to work; our employee retention is high and that means that, likelier than not, the technician assembling your cable is someone who"s been doing this work for at least ten years. American manufacturing isn"t dead, and neither are good American manufacturing jobs; and we thank our customers for making this possible.
