Animal Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is a science-based profession and takes a holistic approach to aid restoration of movement and function. It is extensively used after surgery, as an alternative to surgery (conservative management) and to enhance athletic performance.
Consultations are available at the nationally renowned Hawksmoor Hydrotherapy center near Nuneaton in Warwickshire. This center has the latest physiotherapy equipment including the 'Fitfurlife' integrated land treadmill and gait analysis. Alternatively, if you prefer treatment can be carried out at your home address. Download a veterinary referral form.
Massage increases localised blood flow and oxygen supply, removes waste products and mobilises adhesions.
These benefits are achieved due to the stimulation of the fibroblasts and specialized proteins necessary for tissue regeneration.
Additionally massage has a calming effect on the patient and is useful to warm soft tissue prior to stretching and exercise.
Therapeutic exercises
Canine therapeutic exercises help to increase joint mobility, muscle flexibility, strength and balance.
Stretching is recommended to improve range-of-motion, flexibility, aid injury prevention and reduce tightness in tendons. Passive stretching is the most applicable to the canine patient and 4 rules (for stretching) are proposed;
Electrotherapy plays an important part in animal physiotherapy. It is an all-encompassing term which includes the use electrical current, electro-magnetic fields, light and sound waves. Each has particular attributes which aid in animal rehabilitation.
Land-based Treadmill
The passive movement of the treadmill belt facilitates weight bearing and improving the dogs is range-of-motion. They are often used in post-surgery rehabilitation.
A canine land-based treadmill functions in a similar way to the human equipment, with some important adaptations:
- The running belt is longer to account for the dogs longer body / stride length.
- It will have guards at the side and be open at both the front and back.
- A decline, as well as an incline feature will be built in.
The latter are critical factors in designing a targeted muscle and joint rehabilitation program. For example the incline will help strengthen rear limbs, whereas decline targets forelimbs. Additionally altering the belt speed further refines the specific muscle and joints being worked. Land treadmills are used as part of athletic conditioning and weight loss programs.
Hydrotherapy (swimming and water-treadmills) is the use of water-based treatments to improve muscle strength and proprioception by the 'drag' of the water. These modalities are finding increased use due to the patient being able to commence muscle use / walking (typically after surgery) without having to fully weight-bear on painful limbs and joints.
The primary difference between hydrotherapy (swimming) and the water treadmill (wading) is the muscles they target, although there is overlap.
- Swimming is considered better for conditioning prime mover muscles (i.e. hamstrings).
- Water-treadmill targets the stabilising muscles.
Also consideration must be given to the dog, as some just don't like swimming at all but are happy using the water-treadmill.Back to index

The installation of smart meters into all 30 million UK homes have been delayed by more than a year with the first meters unlikely to be installed until Autumn 2015, and all 30 million meters until 2020.
The delays to the £11-12 billion project has been caused by industry needing more time for designing, building, and testing the systems which will enable the energy companies to communicate with the gas and electricity meters – for example to get daily accurate meter readings for all of their customers.
The huge costs of the project should be more than offset in the savings from not needing to employ people to read meters, and deal with customer complaints relating to estimated bills. Smart meters should help consumers understand their power usage and therefore take steps to reduce it.

Thanksgiving on a budget
It's hard to believe, but it's that time of year again. The holidays are officially upon us, and with the stagnate economy and abysmal unemployment rate, people across all socio-economic classes will be looking for ways to celebrate Thanksgiving in a joyful yet penny-wise way. Having volunteered to host Thanksgiving for my family of 20 + people last year, that unfortunately never came to fruition. A brutal case of the flu forced an emergency change of venue and left me literally home alone watching "Home Alone" on Thanksgiving.
Prior to my getting sick however, I was very excited to host my first Thanksgiving dinner and did a lot of planning and prep-work, in fact, with the benefit of hindsight I feel as though I might have done too much. I wanted everything to be perfect, neglecting the cost involved with hosting such an event, and forgetting the notion that the food was merely an excuse to bring everyone together. Focus on the people you are celebrating with rather than the presentation of the celebration itself. Here are some helpful hints to enjoy turkey day without it gobbling up your wallet.
1. Before you start shopping take a good inventory of what you already have. More often than not you may have some key staple ingredients in your kitchen pantry. There's nothing more wasteful than doubling up on items you seldom use, that eventually will have to be thrown away.
2. Ask for help! Don't take everything on yourself; ask your guest and family members to bring their favorite dishes. Most people are more than willing to bring something to the table so to speak. It makes them feel like they contributed to the event in someway other than just showing up, and people also enjoy seeing other people react to the dish that they brought. Even asking someone to bring items that do not need to be cooked or prepared such as beverages and ice, plastic cups and utensils or even extra chairs or other things that can alleviate some of the stress from the person doing the hosting.
3. The turkey is the centerpiece for your Thanksgiving meal; however, the turkey can also be the most expensive part of your Thanksgiving meal. As Thanksgiving draws near, you should be able to find several grocery stores offering great deals on their turkeys – some stores even offer free turkeys if you purchase a certain amount of groceries from their store. While their minimum limits may be around the $100 mark, it will be no problem for the average family to spend that amount at their local grocery store over the course of the weeks and days leading up to Thanksgiving.
4. Before you head out to the grocery store armed with your shopping lists, don't forget to hit your coupon sources for extra coupons that can help you to save a significant amount of money. Check out the circular flyers that your local stores send out in the mail so that you can have an idea as to which store currently has the best deals on the things that you plan on purchasing.
For great deals on your fresh produce, consider a visit to your local farmers market; not only will you be able to get great fresh fruits and vegetables, but you can often purchase them for much less than you could purchase the same products in your grocery stores.
5. Enjoy the collective effort! When all is said and done, do not lose focus on what the event symbolizes. Take the time to literally give thanks for all the blessings that surround you. In these tough economic times, it can be easy to over emphasize the bad and overlook all the good. Take solace in the little things and the fact that you are enjoying good food in the company of people that love and care for you. And most of all save your leftovers! A little creativity can keep you fed for many days after Thanksgiving!
*** To anyone who might be reading this post, I want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you for your loyalty and continued support, there might not be too many of you out there, but I for one have always been about quality over quantity***

Disclaimer #1 -My husband had to work later tonight and the kids and I entertained ourselves in the kitchen.
Disclaimer #2 - I am posting two lunches tonight because the kids helped me make lunches and I let them choose what items went into their lunch. My son only got a little bit of 'decorative' lettuce because he 'wants a break from salads for a few days' and he 'had a pickle in his lunch today and didn't want one tomorrow'.
This was one that kinda snowballed. The only plan I had in place was the grilled cheese with butternut squash, but I/we started playing and this is what I ended up with...

First Time Business Owner Mistakes
Hello everyone, my name is Richard and welcome back to my business and industry blog. I wanted to talk to you about owning a business today, whether it be your own business of a franchise or whatever you do. There are so many things that you need to do in right a business, and so many things that can go terribly wrong. You need to do your networking, advertising, sales, and everything else just right or your business will fail. You also have to stay on top of things, such as your finances. I try and buy used things for all of my startups, one of my favourite sites is https://www.for-sale.ie, they have quality used goods at quality prices. Here are some tips to follow if you are a first time business owner.
File your Paperwork
Business is about paperwork, not matter what kind of (legal)business it is. You need to make sure that your paperwork is accessible to you at all times and that it is easy to go through. BAsically, you need to have it in a filing cabinet. If you don't already have a filing cabinet but you do have a business, buy at least one of these cheap used filing cabinets(https://www.for-sale.ie/filing-cabinets) before proceeding. Make sure that you put it in a place that is easy to use, and somewhere that will not end up with things piled in front of it rendering the whole purchase useless. If you are looking for organization ideas, consider taking a look at some of the tips available on http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/workspaces/10385/.
Keep Valuables Safe
I am not talking about the stacks of cash you will be making or the jewelry you buy for your partner(although those should be kept safe). I mean all of the things that you and your business need to run. Business license, rental agreement/land title, tax documents and so on. You want to keep all of these in a safe, preferably one that is fireproof and waterproof. I actually just got a safe for my house that was for sale on https://www.for-sale.ie/fireproof for real cheap. The safe is small enough to fit in a lot of hiding spots and heavy enough so that it can't just get carried out.
Thought and Idea?
These are the two biggest mistakes I see people physically doing when starting their own business, do you readers have anything to add to the list? Let me know in the comments section below and like always, make sure that you have us added to your bookmarks so you can get all the latest business and industry news. If you are still looking for a good read, you might find yourself interested in one of our shorter posts, like the one on Brexit. Enjoy your week everyone.

MRC (USA) LLC and SELECTUM (PAK) PLC are collaborating to develop a Viable Economical Model of Two Energy Related Catalyst Projects i.e. CHP-1US-H (Power Generation) and UCG-CTL PAK (Underground Coal Gasification - Coal To Liquid).
Project CHP-1US-H
CHP-1US-H is an alignment of almost similar four, small, up to 9 MW each, Combined Heat and Power Projects; two of which in USA, one in Pakistan and one in Kenya.
What is Combined Heat and Power?
CHP is the simultaneous generation of two or more forms of energy from a single fuel source. By recycling valuable heat from the combustion process, CHP results in far greater efficiencies than centralized power generation. The recovered thermal energy may be used for industrial processes, space heating, and refrigeration or space cooling through an absorption chiller.
According to Dept. of Energy (DoE) USA, CHP is considered the most viable and economical use of Distributed Generation (DG) when implemented at or near the point of use.
CHP Applications:
As per EPA, CHP is being used in over 4,400 facilities in USA, including:
Case Study
Major Benefits
CHP offers many benefits to energy consumers choosing to adopt this technology including:
Medical Center Houston Texas USA CHP Plant
LOCATION: Texas Medical Center Houston, Texas USA
MARKET SECTOR: Healthcare / FACILITY SIZE: 19.3 million square feet
PEAK LOAD: 60 megawatts (MW) / CORE EQUIPMENT: 48 MW turbine (GE LM 6000) with HRSG and steam-driven chillers
FUEL: Natural Gas / USE OF THERMAL ENERGY: Steam-driven chillers, space heating, hot water, dehumidification, and sterilization
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS: Reduces CO2 emissions by 305,000 tons/yr
FINANCIAL BENEFITS : Yearly Energy Savings: $6-12 million 48 MW CHP in Operation since 2010
Project UCG-CTL PAK
Since 2014, Dr. Aziz Siddiqi PhD (Imperial College London) President MRC LLC has focused on Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) Technology and his active areas of research are "Coal-to-Liquid" (CTL) and Industrial Plants Operational Efficiency.
MRC (USA) LLC Director Special Projects Mohammad A. Mirza and SELECTUM (PAK) PLC President Prof. Muhammed Sharif Bhatti PhD are structuring the Underground Coal Gasification / Coal-To-Liquids (UCG-CTL) Project in Pakistan, in accordance with the applicable Laws and Regulatory Framework of respective countries.
Underground Coal Gasification (UCG)
As per National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) part of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratory System, Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) takes advantage of the same chemical reactions of coal to produce product gases, as those occurring in conventional gasifier reactors. The main difference is that in UCG the underground coal seam itself becomes the reactor, so that the gasification of the coal takes place underground instead of in a manufactured gasification vessel at the surface.
How UCG Works?
Gasification is a technological process that can convert any carbonaceous (carbon-based) raw material such as coal into fuel gas, also known as synthesis gas (syngas). Gasification occurs in a gasifier, generally a high temperature/pressure vessel where oxygen (or air) and steam are directly contacted with the coal or other feed material causing a series of chemical reactions to occur that convert the feed to syngas and ash/slag (mineral residues). Syngas is so called because of its history as an intermediate in the production of synthetic natural gas. Composed primarily of the colorless, odorless, highly flammable gases carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2), syngas has a variety of uses.
UCG Process
In UCG Process, injection wells are drilled into an unmined coal seam, and either air or oxygen is injected into the seam along with water. The coal face is ignited, and the high temperatures (about 1,200°C) from the combustion and limited oxygen causes nearby coal to partially oxidize into hydrogen, carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and minimal amounts of methane (CH4) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). These products flow to the surface through one or more production wells located ahead of the combustion zone. As the face is burned and an area depleted, the operation is moved to follow the seam. The graphic below illustrates the general process.
The Syngas can be further converted (or shifted) to nothing but hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2) by adding steam and reacting over a catalyst in a water-gas-shift reactor. When hydrogen is burned, it creates nothing but heat and water, resulting in the ability to create electricity with no carbon dioxide in exhaust gases. Furthermore, hydrogen made from coal or other solid fuels can be used to refine oil, or to make products such as ammonia and fertilizer. More importantly, hydrogen enriched syngas can be used to make gasoline and diesel fuel.
UCG History
UCG has been identified as a potential process for utilizing Unmineable Coal since the late nineteenth century. The process was first developed, during 1925, by Franz Fischer and Hans Tropsch at Kaiser-Wilhelm Institute for Kohlenforschung in Mulheim Germany. Former Soviet Union invested heavily in UCG research. By 1939 the Soviets had successfully begun operating a UCG plant in the Ukraine. Later (and to this day) the Skochinsky Institute of Mining Moscow became a center for UCG expertise. The UCG technology developed by the Institute was implemented in three brown coal and two black coal power stations in the 1960s. One of these facilities, the power station at Angren, Uzbekistan, still operates, producing about a million standard cubic feet of syngas per hour.
During late 1970s and 1980s, the U.S. government instituted several research projects and trials of UCG. China also has a significant history of coal gasification and current installed capacity, and continues to add more gasification capacity at substantial rates, using a wide range of gasifier choices including both Chinese technology and foreign gasifier types.
Current Status
With increasing natural gas demand, interest in UCG has revived around the world. Australia, Pakistan and South Africa are implementing pilot projects.

Pride By The Sea – A Trip to Gay Friendly Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
Life's a beach for Keph Senett as she celebrates pride in Puerto Vallarta, the gay-friendliest place in Mexico
Prior to your arrival in Puerto Vallarta, you'll hear two things about the place.
First, that before it served as the setting of the 1962 release The Night of the Iguana and a torrid affair between Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, it was a sleepy fishing village. Second, that it is the most gay-friendly place in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta has only just celebrated its second annual LGBT Pride, but don't let that discourage you – it's been welcoming gay visitors and residents for decades.
Indeed, it was the Iguana promotional photographs that first caught the attention of Old Hollywood VIPs, many of whom were gay men. Word spread about this enclave on Mexico's Pacific Coast, and soon there was a steady clientele of visitors looking to experience Vallarta's natural beauty, relaxed lifestyle, and inclusive vibe.
Fifty years later, the fishing village has grown into a small city. With international restaurants, a vibrant nightclub scene, and loads of local businesses, Puerto Vallarta has grown into more than a simple beach town. In the words of Pride Committee Vice-President Bill Hevener, "The only thing you can't get enough of in Vallarta is sleep!"
With a such strong ties to the rhythms of Banderas Bay it's no surprise that in 2014, Vallarta Pride was presented under the banner of Todos al Mar (Pride by the Sea). The theme perfectly captured the connection of Vallartenses to the sea, highlighting the best of local food, culture, and costuming. Think sailors, and lots of them.
The first event of the festival was hosted by the newly-reopened beach club Mantamar (Malecon 169, en.mantamarvallarta.com) where bartenders served frosty cocktails to revellers lounging on the gracious terrace, on the beach front sofas, or in the dipping pool. Local drag queens provided photo ops and entertainment, while a DJ spun house beats under a setting sun. When everyone had had their fill, they retired to rest up for the next full day of celebrations.
Most tourists stay in Old Town. Also known as the Romantic Zone, this gay-friendly colonia is close to the beach and is packed with tiendas, nightclubs, farmacias, restaurants, and hotels, many of which sport inviting rainbow stickers on their storefronts. The Zone is super convenient and walkable. In the space of a few blocks, you can as easily buy beer or tacos as a massage or bespoke swim trunks (try Alphonse Swimwear at Pino Suarez 373 for the latter).
On Los Muertos beach, the Blue Chairs resort (Malecon 4, bluechairsresort.com) has long been acknowledged as the hub of gay activity. Seaside, waiters serve food and drinks to a parade of fit and well-groomed men while a DJ serves up beats, and upstairs in the hotel, gogo dancers and drag queens entertain.
If you're looking for a mellower, elegant alternative, try the Lido Beach Club two spots north (Malecon 1). Peaceful and welcoming, Lido is close enough to the action to people-watch, and far enough away to relax. Bonus points for a quality menu, excellent service, and a sophisticated atmosphere. Lido is also the venue where Pride organisers hold their annual group same-sex commitment ceremony (this year, five couples took part).
One of the most exciting developments in this year's programme was the inaugural women's party. Powered in large part by Pride Committee member and local restaurateur Carmen Porras, the Pink and Proud women's event at El Arrayan (Allende 344, elarrayan.com.mx) drew in hundreds of women. With drag kings, gogo dancers, and tag-team DJanes keeping a packed house happy, you can count on this party sticking around. Porras and her partner Claudia Victoria own and run the venue, an award-winning Mexican restaurant serving creative takes on classic dishes. The tacos chapulines (cricket tacos) are perennial favourites.
While the women were sweating it out in el Centro, Casa Cupula (Callejon de Igualdad 129, casacupula.com) was hosting a men's party with drag performances, music, and dancing. This extraordinary multi-level boutique hotel is LGBT-owned (and "straight-friendly"), and is also the site of Taste Restaurant which serves a regular Sunday brunch and pool party. Open to guests and visitors, it's an afternoon of food and flirting in one of Vallarta's most impressive and gracious venues.
In between siestas and fiestas you'll want to grab quick bites. At the beach, you can flag vendors selling fresh mangoes, watermelon, and cucumbers, and spit-roasted mahi-mahi on a stick. Vallarta's main pedestrian thoroughfare is the recently-renovated Malecon — seek out a vendor selling refreshing paletas (popsicles) or tuba (a drink made from palm sap, fruit, honey, and nuts) while you stroll the sculpture walk. Free-style it with any of the taco stands around the city (try birria, barbacoa, and tacos al pastor), or if you prefer, book with Vallarta Food Tours (vallartafoodtours.com). Their friendly local guides bring insider knowledge to help you get the most out of your mealtime.
Vallarta's Pride parade is lively and local. Check the route information and station yourself streetside while the floats and walkers go by, or grab a spot at the end-point in Parque Lazaro Cardenas and let the party come to you. Pop-up shops from local restaurants sell food and drinks, and the coliseum seating fills up fast for the entertainment.
Once the sun goes down, follow the crowd to the dance area behind the gazebo to light up your night with a DJ. Or, hit the showers and head back out to the nightclubs. Many bars are along Lazaro Cardenas, making club-hopping easy.
Reinas (361 Lazaro Cardenas) is an intimate space catering to an older crowd, while younger men flock to martini bar-turned-disco La Noche (Lázaro Cárdenas 257) or dance club CC Slaughters
(Lázaro Cárdenas #254, ccslaughterspv.com). Bar Frida (301A Insurgentes barfrida.com), on the second floor of a building on nearby Insurgentes is lesbian-friendly, and those seeking out a cabaret should try The Palms (Olas Altas 508, thepalmpv.com. No matter where you choose, most places stay open late (as do the taco stands), encouraging impromptu street parties into the wee hours.

Hey guys! Here is a video to give you an idea of what I eat in a day. Don't forget that I'm BULKING which is why I'm eating 2300 calories per day. I'm also in the gym lifting 6 days/week. Hopefully this gives you some ideas of things you can eat while following the ketogenic diet. Leave a comment letting me know what you eat on a typical day, or what sort of video you would like to see next 🙂

Episode 77 – Tara Geraghty – Making Cancer Fun
"It's my life to live. I am OK with the choices I am making for my life. I am accountable."
Cancer and fun are two words that don't generally go together, however, my guest today is about to tell us otherwise.
In 2009, after coming out of a domestic violence divorce, Tara Geraghty found herself in the hospital with her 3 ½-year-old daughter Emily, who was diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma (one of the third most common types of childhood cancer).
Emily was admitted to hospital and critical.
Unable to control anything that was happening is something Tara remembers well. Faced with an unknown outcome of whether her daughter would live or die, she was forced to just be present and appreciate the here and now and that's how she made the choice to make every moment the best it could be.
From then on there were decorations in Emily's room, parties and celebrations for anything that Tara could think of and they had a 50th 'day' celebration party where they gave out party favours…even the nurses wanted to hang out in Emily's room.
Before cancer, Tara spent her whole life feeling like she had to have it all together. Sitting on the floor of Emily's hospital room she finally released the pressure to be perfect. Her perspective on everything changed. She felt the pull toward being more open, authentic and transparent and as she says when you're in faced with life or death and all control you thought you had is stripped away, the only thing that is left is the real you.
In this episode Tara shares:
- If every single human being on the planet wrote down what they were grateful for every night, it would change the entire world for good.
- Everything we view in our world, the good the bad the ugly; it's up to you as to how we view it.
- You don't need other people's approval. Trust your gut…your inner wisdom. Our inner wisdom is so powerful…listen more.

Divya's 1st Birthday | A Fairy Tale Kind of Day
I was absolutely thrilled when I received the call to film Divya's 1st Birthday. She is an adorable little girl with so much personality and I couldn't wait to capture some of that on video. Not to mention she has two of the best parents and most wonderful families I have ever met.
Now this story goes back to last summer when Laura & Narinder were tying the knot here in Altoona, PA. Even as I first met them, I could tell that they were two of the friendliest people on Earth. I think we talked for almost 2 hours at that first meeting. Needless to say, we had an amazing time at their wedding and have kept in touch since then. So when Laura reached out about filming Divya's birthday, there was no doubt that I'd be there.
Divya's birthday celebration began with a meal at the Twisted Thistle in Leechburg, PA. Facepainting, balloon animals and games were set up in the back room where the kids were having an absolute blast. After lunch, it was time for Divya to go at it with the cake. She loved it! As we finished up at the restaurant, we headed back to the house to open some presents. I have never seen so many presents in my entire life!
Thanks to Laura & Narinder and both of their families for welcoming me into their lives. I have had such a great time over the past year or so since I met you. Happy Birthday to Divya and enjoy your video!

Born: 1969 -
Inducted into MNZ Hall of Fame: 2017
It is not very often a sports person comes along that can perform at or near the top level of the person's chosen sport for over 30 years. But Darryll King is no ordinary sportsman.
Darryll and his four brothers were born in to a Motorcycle family, his Dad raced bikes and owned a motorcycle business so it was just a natural fit that the King boys would take up the sport.
Darryll started riding at just three years old on Honda QA50 mini bike. But he would have to wait till he was 10 years old before he was to have his first race at a club event in 1979.
It was around this time that Junior Motocross was gaining in popularity. In 1980 Junior Motocross got it's own New Zealand Championship status. In 1984 Darryll King's name appeared for the first time as a championship winner. Winning the 12-15 year old 80cc class.
The following season was his first in the Senior ranks. It didn't take long for Darryll to establish himself as a serious Senior competitor. His first Senior meeting -The Johnny Old MX- he rode a Honda CR125 and CR500. He won the 125cc class and won the last 500cc race of the day beating the then reigning New Zealand Champion Murray Anderson.
Then a break through in the Senior ranks when he took out the 1986 125cc Senior New Zealand Motocross Championship, which came down to the last round at Pukekohe. He would follow this up with the Pro- 126cc and over Championship in the 1988.
Throughout this period, it was the beginning of a dominate run by Darryll King, Brother Shayne and Darryl Atkins. These three more than any others were gaining experience in New Zealand, Pacific and Australia and were all destined to International careers.
Supercross arrived in New Zealand in the late 1980s, and Darryll showed he could adapt to this having raced in some overseas events. Racing against top Australians and American International racers at home, he showed that he was equal to them and at many times even better. Whether racing in Tokoroa, Wellington, Auckland or Christchurch, Supercross was the ideal base to gain even more experience and support at home.
Darryll would firmly plant himself at the top of the New Zealand racing scene in the 1991 season by winning the New Zealand Pro-125 and Pro-250cc Motocross Championships and the New Zealand 125cc and 250cc Supercross championship in the one season.
Finally Europe called, so leaving New Zealand on a wing and a prayer, and some support from home. It didn't take him long to find how difficult it was, living in a van with limited funds and traveling to Grand Prix and International events, it wasn't the glamour life many thought. There must have been times where it he could have easily come back to New Zealand and been a big fish a small pond.
A break through season in Europe in 1995 saw Darryll finish in third spot in the World 500cc Championship on his private Kawasaki, then returned home to New Zealand and winning the Pro-250cc New Zealand Championship in the 1996 season.
Returning to Europe in 1996 a tough year finishing fifth in the Championship chase, which saw brother Shayne crowned World Champion.
Returning to Europe Darryll would be fighting for the top spot of the World Championship for the next two seasons finishing runner up in the World in 1997 and 1998 riding for the Husqvarna factory.
Returning to New Zealand, he may not have won the World Championship but after eleven seasons abroad he had raced in over 100 Grand Prixs and took five overall Grand Prix victories in Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany and Austria along with other successes.
Back in New Zealand, he set up his own riding academy and with a contract with Yamaha he competed in New Zealand and Australia. He kept winning on both sides of the Tasman winning the 500cc New Zealand Championship in 2002 season and taking the Australian Open Motocross Championship in 2001, 2003 and 2004.
Then in the 2006 he took the New Zealand 125cc and 250cc Championship double. Showing there was still fight in the old racer yet, he would win his final New Zealand championships in 2011 and 2012 taking the MX2 title both times.
Just when he looked like he was at the end of the line, by taking the New Zealand MX2 Championship. He decided to have another shot at Europe.
Darryll finally reach the top of the World of Motocross when at the age of 43 he became World FIM Veteran Cup Champion in 2012, returning in 2014 and 2015 to finish runner up both years.
A remarkable career indeed, with hundreds of wins and more New Zealand off road titles and major events wins than any other rider in history. Five World Grand Prix wins, Twice runner up in the World Championship he also represented New Zealand seven times in the MX of Nations.
It is not only his successes, but his longevity and determination in the sport that stands him apart from everyone else. He has suffered life threatening injuries and other disappointments and challenges, but those situations only made him push on to succeed.
To be the best in the World and still winning a New Zealand championship 33 years after he first started in the sport is a true superman performance and should surely be named as New Zealand's greatest ever Motocross rider and a welcome addition to the Motorcycling New Zealand Hall of Fame.

Diesel Additives Can Still Harm Engines
Diesel Additives Can Still Harm Engines
Instability Can Create Solids in Fuel
Much of the world is required to use Ultra Low Sulfur diesel (ULSD).
With the removal of sulfur, fuel properties change radically, requiring the increased use of additive in order to meet specifications. In the
real world, maintaining these fuel properties can be a challenge. Diesel is tested at many points along the distribution channel, from refinery
to terminal to distributor to end user. Chemical additives are used to correct or enhance the fuel at each of these locations.
Chemically speaking most additives are very similar to diesel itself (i.e. long chain hydrocarbons) so that they dissolve into the fuel. Additives are composed of a long hydrocarbon "tail" at the "head" of which there is another element, the one intended to have a beneficial effect on the diesel. This head typically contains atoms of nitrogen, oxygen, and/or sulfur in addition to carbon and hydrogen. Unlike the hydrocarbon tail, the head is polar. The beneficial element is intended to stay dissolved in the fuel so that it can do its job
Since head elements are polar, they have a strong tendency to want to escape from the non-polar hydrocarbons and associate with other polar substances such as water, metal, dirt, degradation particles or asphaltenes. You might think of them as being magnetically attracted to each other.
Sometimes, usually under adverse circumstances, the polar elements manage to come out of solution and form a bond with other polar elements. When this happens, there are two consequences:
The chemical may no longer be doing the job it was intended to do.
The chemical, now bonded with another substance, drops out of solution and turns into a soft contaminant in the fuel.
This phenomenon is most frequently observed in the presence of poor fuel storage conditions and fluctuating temperatures. Water, improper blending practices, and cold temperatures are leading contributors to these problems.
When unstable additive drops out of solution, it forms soft, sticky, solids which can cause rapid filter plugging and deposit formation. Engine manufacturers have observed injector deposits caused by these soilds, which are chemically identical to the substances found in many rapidly plugged filters, especially the high efficiency filters specified by OEs to protect HPCR systems.
The image to the right is of filter media at 1000x magnification under a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
The media was cut from a high efficiency filter of the type used in high pressure common rail fuel systems. This filter clogged in under 30 minutes of use. Between the media fibers you will notice a film. This kind of soft contaminant coats media as if it were covered in plastic wrap, effectively disabling the filter.
The filter to the left has been completely disabled by soft contaminant. It looks clean because
it did not have the time to become loaded with dirt. Instead, you will notice a sort of sheen, as if the filter media had been coated with wax. This is not due to wax (fuel gelling), but to soft contaminants that have dropped out of solution in the fuel. The pink color is red dye from off-road diesel. Upon further analysis, these soft contaminants were found to have chemical profiles identical to certain components of common diesel additives such as corrosion inhibitors, cold flow improvers, lubricity improvers and others. One thing that is important note, the root causes of this specific chemical instability are not yet completely understood. They are under rigorous investigation by Donaldson Company and other industry leaders.

"I believe in Spinoza's God," physicist Albert Einstein famously stated, but "not in a God who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings."
Einstein, in fact, shared philosopher Baruch Spinoza's view of a hard-wired universe, where every event follows inevitably from what comes before, with no room for divine or other intervention. In the words of biographer Walter Isaacson, "Einstein… believed, as did Spinoza, that a person's actions were just as determined as that of a billiard ball, planet or star." "Everything is determined," Einstein insisted, "the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. I cannot conceive of a personal God who would directly influence the actions of individuals or would sit in judgment on creatures of his own creation."
As a scientist, committed to explaining in exact and predictable detail how the physical universe is ordered, Einstein was no doubt reassured by the apparent complete predictability of events – at least in principle. But his convictions about the orderliness of the universe implied constraints with which we are not satisfied in the modern world. His assertion, in particular, that nothing could move faster than the speed of light was persistently set aside by generations of science fiction writers and buffs. They refused to accept that, as we look out our telescopic windows at stars or potentially life-bearing planets zillions of "light years" away, we will never travel there – or even communicate with living beings that may exist elsewhere in anything approximating "real time."
But, while rejecting a "personal" God, Einstein appears to have imagined a different kind of God — distinct from our physical universe, mysterious and not ultimately knowable by mortal men. "The most beautiful emotion we can experience," he said, "is the mysterious…. To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is something that our minds cannot grasp, whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly: that deeply emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God."
In effect, like a later scientist –Steven Jay Gould — and unlike Baruch Spinoza, Einstein saw science and the divine as "separate magisteria." His universe may have had a Creator, but one who did not intervene in our daily affairs.
Both Einstein and Spinoza were generally humane and modest in their personal lives, and generously radical in their political views – Spinoza as a democrat ahead of his time, and Einstein as a socialist. "From the standpoint of daily life," Einstein put it, "there is one thing we do know; that we are here for the sake of others"
Einstein's commitment to determinism, however, and even his revelation of Relativity, may have contained unsupportable constraints on the free development of life, and science. His refusal to accept the evidence of quantum science, with its suggestions of uncertainty, and its modifications to perfect "billiard ball" causation, Einstein came to appear unreasonably stubborn to some. "It was as if the ground had been pulled out from under us," he said, "with no firm foundation to be seen anywhere."
Since Einstein's death, his still unsurpassed graphic vision of Time as a fourth dimension has opened possibilities for exploring the vast universe; while the speed-of-light "speed limit" in relativity theory has been gratifyingly challenged as "entangled" particles are observed to communicate at speeds far greater than the speed of light.[i]
Whether our lives are ultimately predetermined or open to many possibilities, humanity's liberation from our origins on this blue-green planet, and a path toward understanding the deep mysteries and responsibilities of existence remain open before us.

About Turtle Bay Brixton
Welcome to Turtle Bay Brixton!
Jerk... Rum.. Reggae....
Caribbean eating and drinking... is at the heart and soul of the Caribbean Island culture and we, here at Turtle Bay, aim to capture the essence of this way of life and the great food that evolves here. We are a Caribbean restaurant serving authentic great tasting Caribbean style food from Aruba to Saint Lucia. You will also taste our fantastic rum based cocktails and experience friendly service which we hope leaves you wanting to come back to our Bay again and again.
If your not too keen on spicy food be carful some of the food is spiced but still does taste absolutely amazing! Drinks for happy hour are the best!! Loved all of them
Great food and drink, friendly staff and a fun atmosphere - will definitely visit again
Service slow, got our order wrong and had to wait 15 minutes before getting my meal which by then my husband had finished his.!
Would have liked Mac n cheese on menu and fried chicken. Waitress was really nice. Manager was very polite and active on floor. Red snapper curry was nice. Plantain was nice. Could improve Child's grilled chicken.
Great service and atmosphere on a Sunday afternoon. Not enough rice served with the meal. Jerk chicken not that great- lack of jerk taste and quite dry but had a great grilled flavour.
We are always well looked after in Turtle Bay Brixton. It's a really positive place 2ith a reasonable prices
Always a great place to eat!
I ordered 2 drinks, the 1st drink was inedible/bitter and it did not have enough cordial as it is known to be a sweet drink, the waitress had to add more. The 2nd drink did not have any rum even though it was the main ingredient, again waitress had to add some. The person who made my drinks was a useless mixologist. I ordered the curry jerk chicken and rice and peas - no flavour at all. This was the worst experience I have had in Turtle Bay Brixton.
The team at Turtle bay in Brixton never fail to provide excellent service with a genuine smile, the food was great, atmosphere chilled. We took the time to thank them and the manager for such a great experience. This was our second visit and wont be our last. Thanks guys! keep doing a fantastic job!
Food wasn't as good as it usually as which was a shame, I ordered the browned chicken curry which I usually order and it really wasn't the same. The food and service in generally was extremely slow and some of our orders got a little muddled. Food and speed of service generally fell short of what I've come to expect from turtle bag Staff were very friendly and apologised for the mess ups however
Cool vibe in the restaurant, nice food and cocktails. However the service was not good. We ordered 2 long island ice teas and we waiting over 30 minutes for them and had to ask for them 3 times. The staff were nice, but just forgretful, we didn't have knifes on our table either and had to ask for knifes.
Great evening but need more staff on, they were rushed off their feet and needed to call them over a couple of times. Always friendly and helpful when they came over though.
Absolutely disgusted with the service on Thursday 29th March 2018. I booked a table for 10.30pm to have some pre drinks before a night out. I was with 5 other people. I went to the bar and waited over 20 minutes for someone to serve me. Firstly, I've been to turtle bay in Brixton before. There was two staff members at the bar that was clearly no on their shift and the person serving was only paying attention to the staff members. There was no apology for the wait time and there was no sense of urgency or care towards all the people including myself waiting to order a drink. This type of behaviour is very unprofessional and expected better customer service than this. I gave up in the end and left turtle bay without being served any drink. Would not recommend turtle bay to anyone as I witnessed a complete lack of care and professionalism on Thursday. Disappointed is an understatement
From start to finish every member of your team was attentive, smiley and very knowledgable about the menu. Cocktails were gorgeous as was the food We will be coming back soon, thank you to your team for such an enjoyable evening
Amazing atmosphere staff and food
The weatress were all lovely but they couldn't handle all the work! 45 min to get a menu 30 min for a cocktail .. 30 min more for another one! Not enough staff! Otherwise food is great !
Great atmosphere. Good selection of vegan food and drink to choose from. Service was great- would definitely come back
The food was quite good but we've had better. Service is friendly but a little slow. Good atmosphere though.
Service was great, nice staff, food and drink was lovely
We absolutely LOVED our first experience of Turtle Bay, the food was perfect and the staff were so helpful. We'll definitely be returning!
The curry goat had approx 2 pieces of meat in it. Have eaten here previously and the food was better. There were more vegetables than meat in dishes. We spoke to the manager, he checked and fixed nd the portion control was wrong. He apologised. Our waitress was great, really enthusiastic and fun. Good service just a shame about the food.
Yummy food, but don't expect 100% authentic food if that's what you're used to/have had before elsewhere. It's more 'inspired', as the Turtle Bay staff will tell you if you inquire. The customer service was excellent.
The bar tender was horrible and rude plus the new chefs cannot cook compare whit ur first chefs wen the turtle bay was open the good was 5⭐But not any more , my valentines dinner was a desapointment at turtle bay . And I been a customer sense u have been open. Not thinking of going back
Second time I've been to a Turtle Bay restaurant and the food tastes amazing although portions are a bit small. Great atmosphere though. Would definitely recommend for an evening out.

I finished high school and like most people I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. I tried college but never really excelled in school. I just kind of scraped by doing what I needed to pass. I think a lot of the reason was because to me, school was boring. I was never motivated to put much more effort than needed. It wasn't until my brother told me about the exciting career as a helicopter pilot that my interest was sparked...so, I checked it out. After the Demo Flight with my instructor, Cory, I knew there wasn't anything in the world I would rather do! My instructor at Utah Helicopter tailored his lessons around me and filled class time with facts and stories from him and other pilots. He accepted nothing but the best out of each flight and ground session and truly was "setting the standard for quality and performance one pilot at a time.
At Utah Helicopter the owners and instructors want to see you succeed and will do all that they can to make sure this happens. Without this company's love and dedication to the industry and its students I know I wouldn't be where I am today. Thanks, Utah Helicopter!

The start of training camp almost always brings a surprise for Jeff Green.
In one case, it was a life-changing surprise, when he was diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm in the fall of 2011 and was forced to miss the entire season. Most years, however, the surprise has been a bit more mild. Rather than life-threatening, it's merely career-altering.
In essence, Green walks in the door and hears this: "Hey, welcome back, Jeff. We've completely revamped your role. Take care."
And Green rolls with it.
"That's what I came into this league as, a player without a position," Green said. "I worked hard to develop my game to be at the point I am now, where I can play four positions, even all five. I like being that player who can be put in a game at any position, in any kind of situation. I enjoy the challenge of switching up positions each game."
Observers have looked far and wide for an explanation for Green's inconsistency, and this might be part of it. In a way, he might be a victim of his own versatility. Since coming into the NBA, Green has played as a power forward, a small forward, a stretch-forward and, this season, as a hybrid forward/guard for a Celtics team in need of scoring punch on the wing. Because Green can physically do just about everything on a basketball court, he tends to be the last guy his coaches slot into the rotation.
The point guard goes here. The center goes there. Sprinkle in a shooter, a scorer or a rebounder, and whatever's left, just throw Green into that spot. He can handle it.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens mostly has turned to Green as a small forward this season, because that's where Green is needed. Still, Stevens doesn't seem convinced Green is a natural three, or that Green has a natural position at all. That just happens to be where Stevens has used him.
"The way that our team is built from the standpoint of personnel at the three, it's really important that him or Gerald [Wallace] is in the game at the three most of the time, simply because of size or their ability to guard that bigger wing," Stevens said. "So that means those guys are going to be there a lot, because we don't have anybody else that really fits that bill."
Green is prone to wild swings in his production, this season being no exception. Although he has been a bit more steady, particularly on the road, where he is averaging 17.7 points per game while shooting 43 percent on 3-point attempts, it's not unusual for him to score in single digits one game and more than 30 points the next. His point totals in the last 15 games have been 4, 13, 12, 22, 12, 39, 16, 8, 14, 18, 8, 36, 17, 18, 29. He's all over the map.
Such inconsistent production has led to Green and the Celtics becoming sensitive to any criticism of the 27-year-old forward. Stevens could keep a recording of himself saying "we need to do a better job of putting Jeff in positions to be successful" and replay it whenever a reporter asks about Green's up-and-down performance. When Green was asked a relatively benign question last week about things he needed to "improve," he bristled after mishearing the question and responded, "I don't have to prove nothing to nobody."
Despite the uncertainty over what Green can provide from game to game, the Celtics won't stop going to him. They can't, really. Until Rajon Rondo's right knee fully heals, Green stands alone as the team's greatest potential threat every game. When he is on, as he was Monday against the Milwaukee Bucks, he can make scoring 29 points look effortless, no matter which position he plays. In at least one sense, Green has been one of the few players Stevens can count on in this injury-riddled campaign. Along with Brandon Bass, Green is one of just two players to appear in every game for the Celtics this season.
So as Rondo and Avery Bradley shuffle in and out of the lineup, and Jared Sullinger battles through two injured hands, a sore knee and a balky back, Green remains a constant. He's started all 53 games, 42 of them at the three, 11 of them as a combination two/three beside Wallace. The Celtics are just 3-8 when Green and Wallace start together on the wings, which is probably more of an indictment on the state of the roster than on those two players specifically.
"One of our biggest areas of depth is the 4-5, and it's hard to say you play one of those guys less right now and push [players at other positions] down — more so now than before, simply because we've got some healthy guards," Stevens said. "There were a few games where we had to play Jeff at the two or the three because we literally had only one sub off the bench. Now, you could potentially see a little bit more of that."
Playing Green at shooting guard or power forward more often probably isn't the answer. Then again, playing him solely at small forward might not be, either. Although he is in his sixth professional season, Green is still a player in transition. He came into the league without a position, dabbled as a swing-four in Seattle and Oklahoma City, got traded to Boston, missed an entire season, came off the bench for a veteran team with championship hopes and now is a regular starter on a rebuilding club.
He knows he has been inconsistent, and he hears the criticism — perhaps a bit too much. He doesn't claim to be the perfect player, but he aspires to be that. As he enters what should be the prime of his career, Green still talks about wanting to grow his game.
"It's still a work in progress," Green said. "Each year, my role has been different, so it's never been set in stone what Jeff Green is going to bring into the year, because it's unknown. This year, I didn't plan on coming in as a two, but it happened that way. My first year, I didn't plan on coming in and playing the four, but it happened that way.
"I've just got to continue to work on my game and improve in all areas of my game so I can continue to be that player who can play multiple positions, because that means I always have an excuse to be on the floor."
Ultimately, the problem with Green and his detractors might be one of conflicting expectations. What some might see as consistency, Green sees as stagnating his growth. He doesn't want to settle his role if it means losing the ability to expand his role in the future. The Celtics and those who watch them have been begging for Green to offer some predictability, while Green still aspires to surprise people.

If you're going for a sleek, low look on your modern classic, British Customs' Flat Gauge Cluster Bracket is the way to go. Proudly sitting up high and tilted back, Triumph instrument clusters are major stand outs. Accurately named, this Flat Gauge Cluster Bracket positions the offenders flat enough to blend in, but prominent enough to still see at a glance.

This not only makes it easier to reach, but is another way British Customs fosters clean motorcycle design. Blending form, function and durability, it is precisely cut from aluminum and coated with a subtle black wrinkle finish for blend-in coolness. The bracket mounts without modifications with stainless-steel hardware. The Flat Gauge Cluster Bracket is available for standard handlebars.

City of Tempe, AZHome Menu
Tempe firefighters have encountered many cases of hoarding. It's a dangerous trend that risks the lives of firefighters and residents alike. According to Hartford Hospital, compulsive hoarding may affect up to two million people in the United States. Obsessive hoarding can cost thousands of dollars and isolate people from their friends and family.
Animal hoarding can be just as dangerous as hoarding material objects. Early intervention is the key to preventing the suffering caused by animal hoarding. Thousands of animals suffer and some die in due to unsafe surroundings. Often times, the homeowner is living in feces while breathing acrid ammonia.
There are ways to control hoarding behaviors.
Tips to stop mild hoarding include:
• Putting items into piles.
• Having more possessions is not necessarily better.
• Learning to get past your imperfections; it's okay to make mistakes
• Understanding what you're afraid of and recognize when your fears are irrational.
• Being patient and persistent.
• Recognizing that the clean-up effort won't happen overnight.
• Knowing when to ask for help.
People with friends or loved ones who may have a problem with hoarding can seek help from the Arizona Hoarding Task Force at www.azhoarding.com. Arizona Hoarding Task Force provides guidance in finding support groups and personal organization services. Tempe residents also can find help through CARE 7 – City of Tempe Crisis Response Team at 480-350-8004. Download the Care 7 hoarding brochure.

Doug Garrison's portraits are atypical in the fact that they aren't the usual photo-reality portraits many artists strive for.
Instead the subject's personality takes a higher level of importance than their physical likeness. Although, that's not to say Doug's portraits don't look like the subject… they do… but he strives to capture more than just the likeness. That's what makes each of Doug's portraits special and unique.
Starting with an original photographic image, Doug utilizes a combination of abstract watercolors and digital brush work — artfully manipulating the image until his creative goals are reached. His pieces truly look like nothing else.
The end result is then printed on high-quality, museum-grade watercolor paper, using archival inks that remain true and sharp for many lifetimes.
Additional prints can be ordered as well, in a variety of sizes.
