The Advantages of Hook Loop Fasteners

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 08:17:20 -0500

Hook-loop fasteners are a two-faced fastening system whereby oneface is covered in tiny nylon fibers with little hooks on theends of them, and the other face is covered in tiny nylon loops.When the two faces are pressed together, some of the hooksburrow in and catch onto the loops. The tighter the two facesare pressed together, the more catches that are formed. Thisforms a powerful bonding system that can support great amountsof weight. You can't pull the faces of the hook-loop fastenerdirectly apart; rather, you must pull a few hooks and fibersapart from the one of the edges of the two-face bond. When youcontinue pulling, the hooks and fibers "un-catch" a few at atime, making a "ripping" sound, and the hook-loop fastener isfreed.If you said, "Hey, that sounds a little bit like Velcro!" you'dbe closer to the truth than you know. That's because it isVelcro. Velcro is a brand name - the first brand of hook-loopfastener ever. It was created by Swiss inventor George deMest...

Wed, 15 Feb 2012 05:11:33 -0500

Most companies have only one chance to win, but leaders havetwo. If a leader misses an opportunity to attack itself, thecompany can often recover by copying the competitive move. Butthe leader must move rapidly before the attacker getsestablished.Many leaders refuse to block because their egos get in the way.Even worse, they knock the competitor's development until it'stoo late to save the situation.Blocking works well for a leader because of the nature of thebattleground. Remember, the war takes place inside the mind ofthe prospect. It takes time for an attacker to make animpression in the mind.
