Interview with Prof. Chris Rapley: The Climate Change Act, Antarctica & Political Pressure
The Climate Change Act 10 years on: does it matter? Is it fit for purpose? Are our politicians fit for purpose? Chris Rapley speaks candidly about our preparedness for an ever-rising tide of climate impacts that are already having a disastrous effect on nearly all regions of the world.
The weather we rely on for agriculture is only going to get worse
The jet stream is responsible for what kind of weather we experience and it's behaviour is changing. Dr Jennifer Francis, a research professor at Rutgers University's Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences, explains how a combination of factors are going to drastically impact agricultural systems in Europe and Eurasia.
It is easy to look at the fires in southern Europe and think that "global warming" is a regional problem often on someone else doorstep. This misconception could not be further from the truth because the "global" bit refers only to global mean temperature. As scientists start to look at what is happening around the world, it becomes very clear that the interconnected global system is changing for all.

I had a great week…. It was my birthday, which is always fun as it is the opportunity to unashamedly make everything about me, which though I don't normally admit it, I like to indulge in occasionally…
And I also learnt a lot this week:
1. I can ski if I really put my mind to it!
2. I can relax…. If I really put my mind to it
3. I have some great friends around me, here and at home, who know me much better than I think, so I don't need to do everything alone (of course alone means through The Big i Am, poor TBiAm)
4. I function much better with time to reflect, so I need to slow down.
5. I am action orientated, a bit of a contradiction to learning 4…. Work in progress
6. I can finish what I start…. Sometimes.
Point 6 is my favourite and the one that made me realise the most this week. I finally finished a painting I started in 2005. This is quite normal for me, I have alot of unfinished 'stuff', mainly ideas, paintings, books, and ventures. So, whilst I was moaning away on the phone to TBiAm about how I want to do x, y and z and work 'always takes over' he accurately pointed out to me that I have a lot of things I want to do, but how many do I actually do I start but never finish? Fair play.
There's nothing like a challenge from outside to get my perfectionism into action, so I reflected on this for a day, got a bit moody then thought I would start a new painting. Realising this just proves the point, starting something new again I decided to finish an old painting!
It's taking a while to get to, but I promise this is going somewhere. So, after 7 hours painting and an almost finished article ( I say almost because I am such a perfectionist I am never truly happy with the end product) I realised something really insightful. My fingers hurt really badly from paintbrush multi-tasking, an art in itself. My back was killing. I forgot to eat and drink and my nails were wrecked. Then I had to clear up.
Though I am very happy that I finished my painting, I realised that the last 15 years of me saying 'I want to be an artist, I am creative, my corporate job sucks the creativity out of me' and such the like, that if I had been painting for the last 15 years, my fingers would be painful all the time, my nails would be messy and I hate that and my posture would be even worse than it is sitting at a desk all day! Ultimately, I would just be complaining how painting sucks the life out of my body and I look like crap.
You can find something you like and that inspires you in everything you do. Sometimes it is not easy and it doesn't mean you should accept something less than you want, but what it does mean is nothing is perfect. I am hoping that this is something that will help me move forward in the present, not always think about the future 'what if…' or the past when I can get what I need out of right now.
Result 🙂

Speedy Delivery
- Speedy Delivery
- Who's Out There?
- The CDN Solution
- Dynamic Pages
- Standards Needed
Dynamic Pages
With performance out as a simple comparative metric, most CDN shoppers focus on other considerations, such as the types of data handled by the CDN. All CDNs handle static data, whether images, video, PDF files, or static HTML. That worked for most customers in the late 1990s. Since then, many sites have added dynamically created, database-driven contentproduct catalogs, personalized pages, news, and weather, for examplethat varies based on user information or geographical location. Such pages are generated dynamically using JavaServer Pages or Active Server Pages.
Serving dynamic pages is much more complex than serving static pages. For static content, the CDN needs to know what data it's handling and when to refresh the datacomparatively simple variables to re-tag with automatic or semiautomatic routines. For dynamic pages, however, the CDN must also distinguish dynamic portions of the page from static, and know where to find dynamic data and personalization variables.
Though most major CDNs have some proprietary mechanisms for handling dynamic data, the level of complexity can be reduced significantly by interaction between the authoring language and the CDN. This is the focus of the Edge Side Includes (ESI) standard recently launched by Akamai and Oracle. ESI is a markup language with a handful of tags such as <esi:include>. ESI code is embedded within HTML code and parsed on the edge server.
ESI (and JESI, the Java equivalent) breaks pages into templates with common static elementslogo, background, and navigational structure, for exampleand HTML fragments containing the dynamic portions of the page. Each fragment contains instructions about whether to cache the retrieved data and for how long. Multiple users can share the template and the HTML fragment data. This allows edge servers to create dynamic pages locally, using locally cached content and referring back to the origin server only for missing data.
Akamai and Oracle have promised to submit ESI to a formal standards body, and the companies have already garnered an impressive list of endorsers, including IBM, CDNs Digital Island and Mirror Image Internet, and authoring vendors Macromedia, Open Market, and Vignette. Akamai has integrated ESI into its application suite and network, which will likely stimulate great acceptance in the applications community. Oracle9i Application Server supports ESI.

This post is a piece of creative writing in response to the Daily Post Weekly Writing Challenge, Through the Door. The door to your house/flat/apartment/abode has come unstuck in time. The next time you walk through it, you find yourself in the same place, but a different time entirely. Where are you, and what happens next?
My absence was unintentional. An Act of God, fate, a random gypsy curse, call it what you will. I never planned to be gone so long and after almost three years my life had ground to a halt. Time in the wilderness had sapped my energy, eroded my confidence and chipped away at my resolve. My legs trembled uncontrollably as I walked from the lift along the short corridor to the studio. Hearing commotion on the stairs I fumbled for the keys in my purse and quickly moved my shaking hand towards the deadlock. Neighbours were best avoided. They'd ask questions I'd be unable to answer.
I pushed the heavy door ajar and as I stepped over the threshold music drifted towards me. The song was somehow familiar but I hadn't heard it for a very long time. 'It's too cold outside, for angels to fly, to fly, to fly. An angel will die.' I remembered liking the song even though it was tinged with sadness and my weary mind searched for the name of the artist. Ed, it was definitely Ed, but the surname escaped me. There was no music during my sojourn and my memory was rusty. I shrugged my shoulders and thought no more of it.
The hallway was as I remembered, a little too grand given the size of the studio. We'd talked about redesigning it if we owned the place but we were renting. Buying a place like this was completely out of our league. Light shone into the hall from all angles, gleaming off the polished floor and glossy doors. Suddenly I felt as if I was in the spotlight and a sea of glowing dots swam before my eyes making me reach out for the coat stand. I knew this feeling; I was about to faint. Tremulously and with caution I turned from the hall to the bathroom, splashed my face with water and sat on the edge of the bath. Music was still playing softly in the background, 'the worst things in life come free to us…'
I don't know how long I sat in the bathroom; it might have been minutes or hours. The mirrored cabinets were as pristine as ever, no fingerprints or toothpaste splashes. A razor and a bottle of Radox stood on the edge of the bathtub, fluffy towels lay neatly folded over the heated rail. The linen basket, empty as always, was just inside the door. My breathing returned to normal and I ventured from the bathroom back into the hallway.
I looked towards the lounge/diner. The sofas, cushions and side tables were all just as I remembered. The ugly sideboard, a cross between office furniture and airline baggage storage, still held its imposing position casting a shadow over everything else in the room. On the balcony a rain-stained chair and some discarded cigarette butts from the apartment above competed for my attention, immediately triggering my need to clean up, to keep everything wholesome and untainted. I couldn't find the key to the French doors and as I tried the handle I remembered I was afraid of heights. I wouldn't be going outside after all.
As I turned back from the window memories flooded my brain, everlasting feelings of love, companionship and unerring loyalty for my soul mate. I never intended to be away so long and now I could feel the excitement building, the butterflies that meant I would see Eden again. Years had passed but I still felt the same, Eden was my soul mate and that was all that mattered.
Something compelled me towards the kitchen. It was spotless as ever, foodstuffs, crockery and cutlery neatly concealed in cupboards or drawers. Except the tea. The teabags sat on the counter next to the microwave ready to be brewed into a refreshing cuppa with minimal effort. It was such a long time since Eden and I had enjoyed a cup of tea together. Although I wasn't hungry (and now I thought about it I couldn't remember the last time I'd eaten), curiosity insisted I should open the fridge. I smiled. Carrots, sun-dried tomatoes, pate, beetroot… and monkfish? I frowned. I couldn't recall a time when we'd eaten monkfish but my memory was so ethereal at times. '…Her face seems, slowly sinking wasting, crumbling like pastries…' the song was still playing from a speaker somewhere nearby.
Footsteps. I recognised them. Eden was approaching and my heart raced with excitement. He would be so surprised to find me here, to have me back from… well I wasn't quite sure where from but the main thing was that I was here and home for good. Keys turned in the lock and as the handle twisted I moved from the kitchen into the hallway. I wanted to throw my arms around Eden's neck, to kiss him, tell him I was sorry for going away, let him know I loved him more than ever.
"Come on in Rachel, I'll run you a bath. You must be exhausted." Whoa… Rachel?! I watched as a very attractive brunette walked into the studio behind Eden. "Thanks love," she said.
My head was spinning, I felt faint again and my heart pounded faster than I ever imagined possible. Raw emotions flooded through me. "Who is she, Eden?" I asked. He didn't look at me, carried right on into the bathroom and started to run the bath. In my confusion Rachel had slipped past me towards the kitchen. I turned from the hall and confronted the tall, beautiful woman who had taken over my home and done who knows what with my soul mate. "Hello Rachel. What exactly are you doing here with Eden?" She called to Eden. "Honey, did you forget to close the fridge this morning?" and then she walked straight through me.
Sheeran, that was it, Ed Sheeran. The song continued playing… 'An angel will die, covered in white, closed eye and hoping for a better life.
This time, we'll fade out tonight.'

I know, it's been quiet at Mainly Banished of late. But I've been busy recently keeping the house up. It's been warm, as seems to have been the case everywhere this summer, unseasonably so. Around 90f is hotter than hell for Maine, especially consistantly, day in day out for a couple of weeks.
I have a bunch of stuff to post from the last few weeks but I thought I'd start with the products of the many warm nights that punctuate the succession of warm days. These have produced a whole long list of moths around the porchlights, either every evening or the leftovers every morning.
Of the bigger specimens this is the Waved Sphinx (Ceratomia undulosa)
Slightly smaller but very striking I think is this Lettered Habrosyne ( Habrosyne scripta) with it's odd 'blank' area at the base of the forewing.
This looked like another Sphinx to me initially but turned out to be a Black Rimmed Prominent (Pheosia rimosa).
Much smaller and not totally identified yet is this member of the Haploa genus. They all have striking chocolate and cream patterning like this but within each species there is a lot of pattern variation and that makes ID difficult. A week after posting BugGuide still haven't got a concrete identification.
Smaller again but very pretty is the White-Ribboned Carpet (Mesoleuca ruficillata)
Another Sphinx species was found resting on the basil on the deck after a long warm evening. This seems to be the Twin-Spotted Sphinx (Smerinthus jamaicensis)
Finally for now here is the day-flying Hummingbird Clearing ( Hemaris thysbe). This particular specimen was very active on the beebalm for a good hour yesterday afternoon

Peer Educators
Our peer educators are the cornerstone of the organizations since they are the ones who keep the finger on the pulse. They have the complete trust of the community and everyday they make their daily round visiting people, listening to their problems, guiding them in the right direction (HIV checkup point, hospital, police related issues …), connecting them to our centre by informing the community about our activities, workshops and events, and spreading a positive vibe with their caring presence. The peer educators are the vital link between all Aatmvishwas' initiatives and the community. They decide which activities are needed based on their own ideas and what lives in the community. Subsequently, they also make sure people attend the programs. The peer educators are responsible for increased numbers of sex workers coming for testing and checkups by 40 percent.

The government is committed to developing Queensland small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by supporting them to enhance their prospects for securing participation in defence and aerospace industry supply chains. The Defence and Aerospace Industry Development (DAID) Fund:
- enables Queensland SMEs to develop their capabilities and compete for national and international defence and aerospace industry contracts
- increases Queensland SMEs' exposure and access to defence and aerospace industry supply chains
- facilitates the acquisition of internationally recognised industry certification.
Queensland SMEs operating in the defence, aerospace, and related C4ISREW sectors are encouraged to seek assistance from the DAID Fund to pursue industry-specific, internationally recognised certification of their business operations, goods or services.
The DAID Fund will also provide support for SMEs to participate in targeted international trade shows to engage with national and international companies in the defence and aerospace industries.
Applying for financial assistance
The International and Industry Certification stream of the DAID Fund is open. Applications will be accepted until 5pm on Thursday 12 December 2019.
Financial assistance is available to support SMEs to obtain certification of their business operations, goods or services to international industry-specific requirements. Grants from $10,000 to $30,000 (excluding GST) in matched funding will be awarded to approved applicants.
Applicants can apply for assistance for up to three certification categories; however, the maximum amount an applicant can receive is $30,000 (excluding GST) in matched funding.
Please read the guidelines ( 1.8 MB) and frequently asked questions before you begin your application, and note that only online applications will be accepted.
Frequently asked questions
How do I apply for assistance from the DAID Fund?
To make an application under the DAID Fund, complete the online application form. You're encouraged to read the guidelines ( 1.8 MB) before completing the form.
What is the role of departmental staff?
Departmental staff in your local regional office can also help you. A list of regional office contact details is provided in the guidelines ( 1.8 MB).
Please note that departmental staff are not responsible for developing applications for DAID Fund assistance.
Is there a file size limit that can be uploaded in the online application portal?
No, there is no file size limit.
What are the timeframes for completing activities supported by the DAID Fund?
Recipients of DAID Fund assistance must complete all approved activities within the timeframe stated on the funding agreement with the department. The maximum timeframe is 18 months from the commencement date specified in the agreement.
Do I need to have existing products and market presence to apply?
Yes. It's essential your business currently provides products and services, or has the current capability to supply products and services, to the defence and/or aerospace industries in order to apply for DAID Fund support.
How will my application be assessed?
Applications will be assessed against the eligibility requirements of the program and the assessment criteria listed in section 6 of the guidelines for the International and Industry Certification Funding stream.
During the assessment process, you may be contacted and asked to clarify information, or provide further information, to enable full assessment of your application and a due diligence appraisal.
How will I know if my application is successful?
The department aims to notify you in writing of the outcome of your DAID Fund application within eight weeks of the closing date.
Will my application be treated as confidential?
Yes. The department is required to comply with all relevant Australian and Queensland laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 and the Right to Information Act 2009 by having appropriate processes in place to secure and protect the privacy of all personal and commercial-in-confidence information.
If your DAID Fund application is successful, you will be contacted by the department and informed of the amount and timing of the funding. The business name of the recipient and a brief description of the funded activity may be made public by the department.
What will not be considered as eligible sources of matched funding?
Matched funding cannot be sourced from 'in-kind' (i.e. non-cash) contributions, or other Commonwealth or Queensland Government programs targeting SMEs that subsidise international market engagement, market development, or certification activities. Matched funding is an upfront requirement and the applicant's responsibility to ensure their business has adequate cash flow available to accommodate all activity costs (i.e. eligible and non-eligible costs) at the time of application, and for the duration of the approved activities (i.e. trade shows or certification).
Do I need to have the matched contributions available upfront?
Yes. Payment from the DAID Fund will be made in arrears of eligible costs incurred and evidence of payment provided to the department (i.e. copies of official receipts issued for payments made). Claims for payment must be accompanied by an official tax invoice addressed to the department.
What are the GST obligations associated with receiving a DAID Fund grant?
Under Australian taxation law, government grants are treated as financial assistance payments and may constitute a taxable supply for GST purposes. The department strongly recommends applicants seek independent professional taxation advice regarding their business tax obligations. Grant payments made by the department to approved applicants will not include GST.
Are professional fees considered eligible costs for reimbursement?
No. Professional fees, such as, legal and accountancy fees are not considered eligible expenditure. For further information, refer to the list of ineligible activities and costs under section 5.1 of the guidelines.
Is my business eligible for funding if its head office is not located in Queensland?
Yes. SMEs with a head office located interstate are eligible to apply; however, interstate applicants need to ensure their Queensland-based operations solely benefit from the activity for which they have applied for fund assistance. Therefore, funding may only be applied for the purpose of ensuring Queensland-based operations or systems, or products produced in Queensland, meet international certification standards.
Is my business eligible for funding if less than five employees are employed in Queensland?
Yes. SMEs that employ five or more employees, but have less than five employees located in Queensland, are eligible to apply. However, in this instance the funding application will need to demonstrate how certification activities will directly benefit Queensland-based operations. Businesses that do not employ five or more employees are not eligible for DAID Fund assistance.
Is it necessary to show evidence of compliance with Queensland industrial relations, and workplace health and safety regulations, with my funding application?
No. While compliance with the above regulations is required, it is not necessary to provide evidence of this with your application. However, you will need to ensure that evidence of compliance can be produced if requested by the department during the application assessment process.
What qualifications does my consultant need to help prepare my business for certification?
To be eligible for support from the fund, you will need to:
- engage a consultant to carry out the pre-certification tasks that are required. As a minimum requirement, the consultant you select will need to be certified to ISO9001 or AS/NZS ISO 9001.
- engage an independent certification body that is accredited by JAS-ANZ, or other international accreditation body, to inspect and certify that your business fulfils the requirements of the specified international standard.
For a guide to certification bodies in Australia, go to https://www.jas-anz.org. Other international accreditation organisations can be found on the International Accreditation Forum website.
I already have a quote from my preferred consultant that is valid for 30 days, will this be adequate?
No. You will need to ensure the quote from your consultant is valid for up to 90 days from the date the quote was issued. It's also important to ensure your quote is dated on or after 1 November 2019.

All kinds of things, regardless from your confusion from the newspaper not to mention TV and additionally sector, consumption of calories nevertheless rely!

Schlossgut Diel Riesling Kabinett 2009
Winemaker's Notes:
Ridiculously charming a loveable, dancing wine; a little girl very neat in her school uniform, playing hopscotch on her way home; among the most innocent and child-like of any '09 I tasted; lots of lime and garrigue and sassafrass, piercing brightness, whistling to itself as it skips out of view around the corner. One can be fond of wine like this.
Member Reviews for Schlossgut Diel Riesling KabinettAdd your review
The nose showed ripe peaches, tangerine, hints of lemon and floral notes. On the palate it was soft and ripe with sweet apple and lemon. It's tongue curling acidity shows up later and lasts into the close. The finish was dry, showing citrus rind and hints of grapefruit.

15 Reasons Why You Should Never, Ever Move To Texas
As much as we love the great state of Texas, even those of us who have lived here our entire lives can admit it has some shortcomings. I mean, the food is so delicious that being overweight is basically inevitable, the sheer amount of beautiful natural wonders is overwhelming, and we're all trapped here because every other state sucks. Texas is just awful, right y'all? Here are 15 reasons why you should avoid moving to Texas at all costs.
Can you relate to these reasons? Why else should people stop moving to Texas?

Hong Kong's Mass Transit Railway (MTR) is quite rightly regarded as one of the best in the world.
On an average weekday it moves more than 5.5 million passengers, with a punctuality rate of 99.9% - a figure most Australian rail users can only dream of.
But with land in the tightly packed city at a premium, extending the MTR is proving a challenge.
Some construction sites on the $11 billion Shatin-Central Link are just two metres away from bedrooms, while building under the busy harbour has thrown up some unwanted surprises.
"You can have anything, dead dogs, shopping trolleys, car engine blocks, piles, old anchors, anything", project manager David Salisbury said.
"Fortunately on the drive we did here, we didn't hit too much big, but we did take out some 50 Tonnes of bits of steel, knives forks, spoons, shell casings, cannon balls, sitting on the sea bed".
Due to open in 2021, the project will extend Hong Kong's rail network by 17 kilometres, with tunnels under Victoria Harbour and Hong Kong Island.
Key to construction is a large Tunnel Boring Machine, or TBM, described by David as an underground "moving factory", which uses a slurry system to help grind through the earth.
"What you've basically got is a huge 7.5 metre diameter drill head, with a shield behind it to protect the guys from the water bearing ground outside", he says.
"That liquid is clean going in, and brings the material with it back out, up to a separation plant on the surface, so it's a closed circuit, the guys down here never see the muck, they never see the material that we're excavating".
The TBM is lowered down a shaft, and as it pushes through the ground, installs concrete rings to line the new tunnel.
As we walk through the tunnel entrance, it feels clean and complete, and compared to the crowded streets above, it's remarkably spacious.
In charge of the Hong Kong TBM is Queenslander Sam Armstrong, working with French tunnelling experts Bouygues and their subsidiary Dragages.
"This is a perfect example of what can be achievable going under the heart of a big city, causing minimal, zero impact to the public", he said.
Similar technology is being used to build the Sydney metro, and will soon be brought to Melbourne to help dig its new rail tunnel.
But even with the tunneling technology, disruption is inevitable.
Hong Kong has demolished buildings and rebuilt entire intersections to make way for the deep shafts needed for stations.
The Victorian government has foreshadowed similar works in and around the city's Central Business District, with parts of busy St Kilda Road to close from early next month.

"The NDP have become the de facto
Opposition party, even though they
don't have status in that regard,"
The delicate nature of spinning the humble pie served up to both the tories and the grits via yesterday's pair of public opinion polls was entertaining. Sometimes, I wonder why politicians bother with the facade of serving-up all of the horse shit when they know that people see it for what it is.
I thought Bell Island MHA, David Brazil, did a decent job, he was not nearly as cheekish as the rapid fire suck-up Tweets from Boy Scout MHA, Steve Kent. He offered a realistic assessment of both the ongoing political correction, the current public policy challenges and the impact Federal Conservative policies are having on the provincial brand.
Expectantly, the former Bell Island Ferry Committee Chair turned government apologist, did not mention the fact that his crew endorsed Stephen Harper, and in doing so unleashed the E.I changes, job cuts, fisheries cuts, science cuts and search & rescue cuts on the residents of the province. The Progressive Conservative Party of Newfoundland and and the Conservative Party are one and the same these days. Notice how one has the others back? Stating anything to the contrary is like asking voters to believe the Liberals are moving forward.
Liberal Andrew Parsons did as good as can be expected, considering the lackluster performance of Dwight "dynamite" Ball. Give us time said young Andrew, he has only been leader for five months. Have many times have I heard that K-Tel hit since 2005!
Time is something the Liberals do not have. They are only a by-election, or two away, from being the third party! Frankly, considering the obnoxious behavior of Bay of Islands Liberal MHA, Eddy "The Enforcer" Joyce, in the House of Assembly this week, the label might look good on them!
What is interesting, like Joyce's sudden temporary coalition with the government bleacher creatures, is the Parson's/Brazil one-two punch on St. John's New Democrat Dale Kirby over the Corner Brook Mill workers pension issue. The temporary love in is amazing.
What the heck are the Liberals doing in bed with the government on this issue when they should be pounding the crap out of them? This is not a political issue? My ass! It is a political issue, it is an issue that demonstrates a failure of leadership not much different than the issues facing the fishery. You might recall the Premier rejected an all-party approach on that issue because the Liberals did not have the intelligence to contribute anything, according to the Premier:
"I have said it time and time again in this house, to have these all-party committees requires some confidence in that the people opposite know what they are talking about,"
What is clear, the Corner Brook situation is that the outstanding issue, the bone of contention, is that current union employees are worried about the future of their pensions. Government is prepared to pay out millions in assistance if the mill closes but they feel it is not their role to offer the union and the owners a way forward? How is trying to find a solution to the pension impasse political? How is forcing the government to account for it's lassie-fair approach, political?
Why won't the government guarantee pensioners that their pensions will be protected in the long run through some form of loan guarantee. They could ask Kruger to put up the power plant in Deer Lake as collateral. If both parties feel the mill has a future, such an arrangement would be the ideal fix to this impasse. Is this political, of course not..It is a pragmatic way to eliminate the stress of the current situation and a win-win-win for all three groups.
I thought the House of Assembly was the place to debate public policy and to hold the government to account! Perhaps not quite understanding that is the reason that the Liberals are sitting double digits behind the NDP in the polls.

Self-regulation definition refers to the way we exert control over our impulses. It is "control [of oneself] by oneself" (Andrea Bell, 2016). It allows us to stay in control and keep our emotions in check. When we learn to self-regulate, we learn to resist impulses and behaviors that may worsen a situation. Self-regulating is not only about learning to control our impulses, according to Bell, it is also being able to cheer ourselves up when we're down, and having a whole range of emotional and behavioral responses that are well-matched to the demands of our environment" (2016).
In Jewish teachings, the practice of self-regulation is not only encouraged but obligated. Our mission in life is to ascend to higher spiritual levels. How can we do so? By taking control of not only our physical bodies but our emotions as well. "Therefore every man of heart must strive with all of his faculties to reach the ultimate he can achieve of the higher qualities… So that if a man has attained a level of good, he should always desire to ascend to yet a higher level – until he attains the ultimate good whereby he may attain the world of reward, the World-to-Come" (Introduction to the Ways of the Righteous). Striving to attain reward in the next world is the essence of Judaism. How can we ensure our reward in the World-to-Come? We can do so by working on ourselves and learning to self-regulate, and thereby become a more spiritually perfected people.
When we practice self-regulation, we will find many important benefits down the road that may not be so obvious at first. There is a lot of evidence suggesting that those who successfully self-regulate their behavior and emotional responses in their everyday life will enjoy higher levels of well-being. Greater self-regulation is positively associated with well-being for both men and women (Skowron, Holmes, & Sabatelli, 2003). A study conducted in 2016 found the same to be true regarding young people. Adolescents who regularly engaged in self-regulatory behavior had higher levels of well-being than their peers, as well as enhanced life satisfaction, perceived social support, and positive feelings. Those who suppressed their feelings instead of addressing them, however, experienced lower levels of well-being, as well as greater loneliness, worse psychological health, and more negative feelings (Verzeletti, Zammuner, Galli, Agnoli, & Duregger, 2016).
Practicing self-regulation will slowly change our everyday lives for the better, ushering in a sense of calm. We relinquish attempts at controlling the uncontrollable. Instead, we focus our control internally, taking control of ourselves and our emotions. This practice will undoubtedly lead us to a path of spiritual perfection and an overall higher quality of living.Self-Regulation Definition to Jewish Positive Psychology

Today's quote comes from Lord Chesterfield who said, "If we do not plant knowledge when we are young, It will give us no shade when we are old."
Lord Chesterfield points out that knowledge is a necessary retreat and shelter for us in our older years. He suggests that if we do not plant this knowledge when we are young then when we grow old we will not have the comforts of that shelter when we grow old.
Do you agree? Please comment and give me your interpretation!

Why is it so hard to spell the Lybian leaders name? Why are there so many variations on the spelling of his name? Transliteration is the answer. Transliteration is the transcription of a word or name, into corresponding letters of another alphabet. The Arabic language is one of the most widely spoken Semitic in the world and the pronunciation of words varies across the different regions. A famous roadblock for any Arabic to English translator is the Arabic "q." Depending on the region, it can be replaced with k, g, or gh sound. This explains the different variations of the spelling.

One of the most important things we can do to improve our lives is to learn from the people, places, and things around us. In order to do this you have to focus your attention on what's going on around you. It's important to explore new things and idea's to enrich our lives. This is how we grow and develop.
This is how we live better today than yesterday. We should be learning something new every single day. This is how we keep from making the same mistakes over and over again.
We are what we feed our minds but to live a successful life, here are some of the things we should focus on:
- Information on technology
- Information about the field of work we are in
- Information about things that interest us most
- Learning how to live a better life
- Information about how to find and live out your purpose
- Learn how to best live out your challenges
- How to carry out your desires
Life is not just about completing everything on our "to do" list. It is about living and learning. It is about retaining the most important information and lessons then using the information to make today better than yesterday.
Want to make a difference in your life?
Don't you agree?

There is a general contention that free press release distribution is a viable choice for those marketers that end up on a tight budget. This will make the thought of a totally free release syndication quite tempting, whilst a number of the sceptics wonder how effective they are in comparison to paid services.
Allow us to be clear that totally free press release distribution is affordable and will certainly allow you to expose your organization to media participants. This can allow them to expose your business to the general public in the kind of information or articles in your market segment, but also considering that it is relevant.
On the one hand, individuals need to appreciate that free services are certainly not as effective as paid-for services, and although your release will be sent their subscriber base, very few free sites will in fact distribute it to a list of verified media contacts. The downside of this, is it might actually keep you from creating a lists of contacts by industry, geography, or perhaps specific product preferences. Within both off-line and also on-line marketing, it comes with an undisputable norm that "the cash lies in a list".
Some free press announcements are however published on online media only, while best press release distribution service have it published on other news outlets also making the distribution wider. The greatest values of writing, publishing and distributing free press releases are which they allow you to get the business publicity, even without having to advertise anything. Free releases are proven to be effective in many ways, to let readers take actions by replying to some of the marketing calls and messaging a part of those releases.
When you may be unable to directly post your news in media like Google News, many reputable press release outlets can and will do so. Other websites offering free releases are PRLog and Free Press Release, yet others even welcome guest editorials of a high value-adding nature. If these kind of no-cost releases can be your second choice, then at the very least get some good comfort from the truth that they may be fantastic for SEO.
Press release syndication on a free basis, could be fast, simple and effective, and it might be worthwhile considering the needs and marketing reach of any modern business, to help make an informed decision. Free releases yzoyau also often included in premium marketing packages on Business To Business review sites. Some are obviously quite limited, having a maximum of one daily being offered, but instead some exposure for the product and services, rather than nothing whatsoever. Also usually do not discard the possibility of distribution through other media website in addition to free classified adverts and free events posting.
The media landscape is in a procedure of constant change, which is redefining just how free press announcements are prioritized, especially within the editorial review processes. Editors have become increasingly fussy about the type of content they want associated with their publications or news media. After your day, you obtain what you bought, which is actually a view expressed by those pundits who may have a company think that free press releases usually are not really free.

that would mean less money. Daniweb is a big operation so i assume it needs ever penny of ad revenue for bandwidth.
Wow... the ins and outs of running a big website. What I find a bit funny is that technically if DW got a decent cash injection, or all members donated even just for 1 month, the ad companies would still pay, but only guests would see their ads, thereby reducing the effectiveness of their marketing... sort of.

It all began in Australia in 2007 in a lights off event. Now, dubbed as "Earth Hour," it became an annual worldwide movement organized by WWF encouraging people to switch off their lights for an hour as a support for climate change action.
But is this simply another feel-good event that doesn't really have any significant impact?
Critics say that the reduction in power consumption is negligible. Well, that's true. And Earth Hour events when not managed well actually contribute to a lot of waste generated and more energy consumed.
But the whole point of Earth Hour is raising awareness on climate change and other environmental issues. Because frankly, there are still climate deniers, people who are oblivious to how we are destroying our planet, and those who need a little nudging to adopt a more sustainable lifestyle.
So I say switch off the lights. As you go beyond the hour and be more proactive in conserving energy.
Switch off the lights and let this be your vote in support for cleaner sources of energy.
Switch off the lights and continue doing something to combat climate change by reducing the stuff you buy, by being a responsible consumer, by re-using and recycling, and by lessening waste.
Switch off the lights and be part of this collective environmental movement.
Let the naysayers be for at the end of the day, taking action is better than inaction.

If anyone is apprehensive about sending one to him, I can vouch for Robert. I know him personally. He's a good guy, and you will definitely get your part back with no issues.
Gents, I don't post here very often and when I come here I am usually seeking knowledge.
I need to replicate a Type 1 piston and need a sample - even a damaged one to borrow for a couple days. I'll of course pay shipping to me and from me. If you have one to lend, please reply here or send an email message to [email protected]
Thank You,
Robert Forbus
Ah - thank you BR!

I know its premature, but do you have a ball park price in mind?
Brownstone, no sir. I received the sample from BR762 and have the sketch complete. The Type 3 drawing shows these to be made from simple 50-point carbon steel, hardened to 34-40 Rockwell C and flash-hardchromed a minimum of 0,015mm after buffing. The sample BR762 sent even has buffed grooves. A customer of mine wants one and is "willing to settle" for alloy 300 stainless steel. That will work okay and be "pretty" when buffed but of course will not have the longevity of hardened steel that has a very thin layer of hardchrome. I'll examine the market and see what is the desire and what one is willing to pay. These would of course not be $20.00 units if made correctly. I can't even make a single soft stainless unit for that price.
Count me in for two properly made and chromed.
Does anyone know what turbos price point was for these when he made them? Were his made out of stainless? I'm pretty sure I have a turbothis fluted piston that came with one of my rifles he welded up. I have herd that the hard chrome process throws these out of spec when reproduced.
WTB: Russian PLO Parts KITS
Type 1-2-3 Russian Barrels / Deact kits
Late 70s Russian AKM kits
If the price is good I'd be in for two.
Would prefer the harder steel made as close to or to original specs even at a higher price as I intend to shoot mine, I'd expect most people would be similar.
1960s-1986 Russian Kits | Subgun kits of any kind
1973 dated kits and guns | AIMR-74-PM MD 86 Barrel
Polish NSP3 Nr L-90048
PM me, can pay $ or possibly trade.
I would need atleast 4 maybe 5. As close to original spec as possible.
Way early, but any updates Robert?
Not likely to wear out a stainless piston in a semi-auto, primarily collector T1 firearm.
Most US 922r pistons are stainless and not sure anyone has worn them out to any degree.
Last edited by AKBLUE; 11-28-2018 at 07:03 PM.
Any updates on a reproduction piston?
If an original piston is demilled then rewelded and machined would it count towards a compliance part for a manufacture?
Any updates or a ETA?
does turbo still make these? I had two of them at one time. seemed fine
^ Turbo does still makes these. I had inquired awhile back, but he says he just to busy currently to do a run.

Straddling the renegade worlds of alt-country, blues and soul, Jess Knights' hard-to-pin-down style is reflective of her own unassuming past. A classically-trained opera singer, who's spent time living in Germany, Thailand and New Zealand, Knights has been defying convention since she started cutting her teeth in the boozy, rough-hewn dives of her native Calgary.
Recalling the raw timbre of Etta James, her crystal-clear voice radiates vintage soul. On her debut EP, Won't Wait— out independently on October 27, 2018 —Knights flexes a sly, heart-on-her-sleeve sweetness while chronicling tales of corrupting religious boys, a friend's battle with addiction, and finding the light of humanity from darkness.
The album was recorded between OCL Studios and the living rooms of Knights and producer Josh Gwilliam (George Canyon, Road Hammers), and she enlisted a crew of heavy-hitting musicians as her studio backing band. Members of The Flat Whites, including Juno Award-winning songwriter Russell Broom (guitar), Chris Byrne (bass), and Spencer Cheyne (drums), along with multiple Juno and CCMA Award-winning songwriter and producer Mike Little (keys) ensure a rollicking, full-bodied sound while letting Knights' pristine vocals shine. Aaron Young (Ghostboy, The Blackbelts) also contributes to a track.
Gospel-tinged opener "You Come for Money" is an example of the singer's inability to fit into a single box, setting the album's tone with an infectious, reverberating blow. On the title track, Knights coos around a blistering halo of fuzz-buzz guitars and saccharine '60s soul-pop vibes; boot-stomper "No Jazz" channels the singer's juke joint roots; and the understated "Shot a Bird" describes the regret of an unfaithful lover.
The five songs contained on the EP were forged out of more than a decade of honing her songcraft and a fair share of paid dues. Won't Wait represents Knights' long-overdue introduction to a realm beyond the bleary-eyed last calls of the watering holes she came up in. A hunger, heart, and voice this big are hard to restrain, and she's not waiting anymore.

Some are convinced that organic farming and, resulting from that, organic food should be called conventional since mankind has been growing food on an organic way for centuries. Now organic stands for ecologically based farming. It is defined by ecological and proactive procedures that maintain and enhance soil fertility, prevent soil erosion, promote and enhance biological diversity. It also aims to minimize risk to both animal as human health and natural resources.
Organic products are therefore not just products with no pesticide residues but organic products are the result of a specific way of producing.
For organic produce a formal legislation is not into place in the EU. The EU is working on a formal legislation but until today it is not official.
For organic produce, Primoris offers several methods that are very well suited for organic produce and where the reporting limits of plant protection products are compliant to the rules for organic produce.
Certified by
Regarding residue analysis on organic produce, Primoris is approved by the German "Bundesverband Naturkost Naturwaren" and the Dutch organisation BIOKAP.
