These guys refuse to waste a second…

Sam, of Lean Israel, shares a video of his first hang gliding trip off a mountain. The site was on the Gilboa range, at “Saul’s Shoulder” (literal translation – I think a more accurate translation would be “Saul’s Point”). This, by the way, is the site of the famous biblical Battle of Gilboa, in which Saul committed suicide by falling on his sword rather than being taken alive by the Amelekites. If only he had had a hang glider, perhaps he could have gotten away…

Scotty Miller of Briggs Medical Service Company sent us the following photos and stated, “Just wanted to share some small but steady improvements we have made to some cluttered areas using 5S. Our next step is to purchase some long nose markers and Kaizen foam for another project. Thanks for what you do!!”
