Actually my books are already available for worldwide shipping through online stores such as LAZYYY and Seemoon, but these stores are founded in Taiwan and most pages are written in Traditional Chinese. I have been asked "how can I buy your books if I don't live in Asia?" for years, and mostly my answer is to write a request letter to service staff of the stores I consigned. Recently the staff of LAZYYY told me they're welcoming overseas orders. Now they accepted credit card as payment method. And most Q&A are written in Chinese/ English / Japanese now. LAZYYY store now seems almost English-friendly.
LAZYYY is a doujin shop and also an online shopping platform, same as most of my consigned shops listed in my website: Home-->Doujin Shop & Print Store-->#SHIPPING INFO#. If you're familiar with some famous Japanese doujin shops, like K-books or Toranoana(とらのあな), they are also the same kind of shops, mostly dedicating on selling fanbooks(doujinshi).
Please notice that those artists create and publish merchandise by themselves. These shops are only consigned for helping artists selling merchandise. They are not responsible for merchandise publishing, quality and content.
I made a small testing, pretending I'm incapable of reading Chinese and try to place an order. There are still some Chinese only pages which may confuse many customers. Overall, the process is easy and convenient. If you have a credit card, just apply for a LAZYYY membership account and you're ready to go.

PrEP (Pre Exposure Prophylaxis) is a new HIV prevention strategy that involves HIV-negative people taking antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) to reduce the risk of becoming infected with HIV if sexually exposed to the virus.
Research is showing that PrEP is highly effective in preventing the sexual transmission of HIV as long as the medication is taken regularly and as directed. The PROUD study in the UK reported that PrEP reduced the risk of HIV infection by 86% for men who have sex with men (MSM). Read more about this study at www.proud.mrc.ac.uk.
Currently (July 2017), PrEP is not available in Ireland, but access is expanding globally. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that in all countries, PrEP should be available to MSM, alongside other HIV prevention interventions. The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) advises European countries to consider integrating PrEP into their existing HIV prevention package for those most at-risk of HIV infection, starting with MSM.
Keep up to date about access to PrEP at www.prepwatch.org.
PrEP does not prevent other STIs. Condoms, when used consistently and correctly, are the best way to prevent the transmission of HIV and other STIs.
What is PrEP?
PrEP is a course of HIV drugs taken by HIV negative people before and after sex to reduce the chance of getting HIV. Results in trials have been very successful, with PrEP significantly lowering the risk of becoming HIV positive and without major side effects. The medication used for PrEP is a tablet which contains tenofovir and emtricitabine (sometimes known as Truvada).
How does PrEP work?
Taking PrEP before and after being exposed to HIV means there is enough drug inside you to block HIV if it gets into your body – before it has the chance to infect you.
How do I get PrEP?
At the moment PrEP is not available in Ireland. In Ireland, it is against the law to supply prescription medication by mail order, including over the internet. The Health Products Regulation Authority (HPRA) provides information for the public in relation to sourcing medication over the internet. View/download the HPRA information leaflet 'The dangers of buying prescription medicines online'.
PrEP has recently been made available in Scotland. For more information about PrEP we recommend you check out the prep.scot website.
Update on sourcing PrEP online
(information supplied by the Gay Health Network)
The Health Products Regulation Authority (HPRA) have increased surveillance of PrEP orders coming in to Ireland. Reports have been received of orders being intercepted by the HPRA and PrEP medicine being confiscated.
In addition to this, the HPRA have expressed particular concern about the legitimacy of the source of a recently seized supply of generic PrEP. The HPRA are also examining the websites people use to source PrEP.
There have been no reports from the HPRA or any other appropriate bodies stating that the medicine being sourced online is not effective as PrEP. However, sourcing medicine online does carry a level of risk and so we encourage caution if you intend to do so.
Please remember…
- If you are sourcing PrEP by any means, engage with your local sexual health service for testing and monitoring. Clinics want to see people who are taking PrEP so that they can look after them in the best possible way.
- If the HPRA intercepts a PrEP order it will be confiscated. Under no circumstances will the PrEP drug be released to you. Any amounts spent on purchasing the drug will be lost.
- If the HPRA contacts you about having placed an order for PrEP online – you are not in any trouble. If they ask you for information on how you ordered PrEP, you are under no obligation to respond. However, the role of the HPRA is to protect the public from illegitimate drugs and their suppliers – any information supplied by you will be used to better understand the circumstances around supply of medicines and protect the public from bogus suppliers.
Advice before taking PrEP
Talk to a health advisor, nurse or doctor at the clinic. They can help you if you are planning to take, or are already taking PrEP. It is important to have an HIV test before you start. PrEP can only be used if you are HIV negative. If you are already HIV positive and don't know it, you could develop resistance to drugs that you will need for treatment.
Ask for a '4th generation' HIV blood test. This is also called a 'combined antigen/antibody' test. This test can tell you your HIV status approximately four weeks ago. Most finger prick tests are currently '3rd generation'. They tell you your HIV status approximately three months ago. So don't rely on a finger prick test alone before you start PrEP.
If you are just starting PrEP and had a risk exposure to HIV in the last four weeks, have another 4th generation HIV blood test four weeks after starting, just to be sure an early infection was not missed. If you have flu-like symptoms and a recent HIV risk exposure it is advisable not to start PrEP. This is to check that these symptoms are not related to a recent HIV infection.
If you are starting PrEP after PEP, it is best to start immediately if you have ongoing risks. Ideally you should have an HIV blood test around the time you finish PEP/start PrEP plus another HIV blood test four weeks into PrEP.
Remember that unprotected sex while taking PrEP will reduce your risk of HIV but not other STIs. Use condoms to reduce your risk of other STIs and get tested regularly.
You will also need to have your kidney function checked. Kidney monitoring just involves a blood test for creatinine and a urine test for protein. These should ideally be done just before or on the day you start PrEP.
Advice while taking PrEP
Once you have started PrEP, health monitoring is really important.
Every 3-4 months:
- Have a '4th generation' HIV blood test.
- Have a full screen for other STIs.
- Have a urine dipstick test for protein when you have your STI check up; if there is more than a trace, an additional blood or urine test can be sent off for kidney function.
Every 12 months:
- Have a blood test to check your kidney function.

Runway to Color Palette: A Stylish Holiday
This holiday season, I have strayed away from the classic red and green color palette and focused on a more modern palette which includes gold, white and a little cream. The reason I am so keen on this color family is because it's a nice transition into the New Year, and it gives off a more sophisticated vibe. A lot like the ensemble below, this color palette is classic, trendy and full of style. Try this holiday palette in your dining room and your guests will be sure to give some Ooh's and Aah's. Here's the look:
Products: 1. Teapot 2. Flatware 3. Fur Throw 4. Chair 5. Wall Decor 6. Wallpaper 7. Placemats 8. Dining Table For even more finds inspired by this palette, go here.
Color Inspiration: Jacket.
Folky Gold is a pretty hue to introduce in textiles, wall art and other accessories.
Color Inspiration: Shirt
Paint your walls a bright white, like Pure White, to allow all of the pretty tones to pop.

The 'Golden Visa' is presented as something that the Spanish government has put in place to attract wealthy foreigners, particularly Russians and the Chinese to come to Spain for residency, who will then go on to spend their money in the Spanish economy, and in turn will boost it. The only clear regulation that has been explained is that the foreign person must spend 500,000 euros on real estate. However, many foreigners are having trouble in obtaining a golden visa due to the fact that there are a lot of underlying rules and conditions which Spain Property Lawyers can help with. For instance, people are now having trouble in getting the visa because Spanish officials have said that anyone trying to gain a golden visa will also need to have 50, 000 euros in your savings otherwise you will not be accepted. This therefore makes it much harder for people to gain Spanish residency, as a lot will use their savings when making the purchase of their new property.
As well as this it has also come out that you have to spend 500, 000 euros per person therefore a couple cannot buy a 500,000 euro property together and expect to gain the golden visa: it has to be separate; a couple would have to spend 1 million euros for them both to get the visa. If the couple is, in fact, capable of spending this amount of money then they will only be entitled to a provisional visa for residency, that will only last a year and they will then have to re-apply after twelve months. You will also not be able to work in Spain as it is not included in the visa regulations, so buying a property in Spain will not allow you to practice business or work in that country. You can look elsewhere and speak to Property Lawyer based in Italy, but Spain is where to be!
The aim of the golden visa was to lure wealthy, foreigners to come to Spain and buy property and to therefore spend money in the Spanish economy, which would, in turn, boost it, which it is in dire need of so it does not make sense for them to make it so difficult to do so.
The fact that they will not issue working permits is understandable due to the job market being the way it is, however this will not help seduce wealthy foreigners to come and bring their money to Spain. The whole scheme now feels all a bit insincere, where applicants are expected to jump through so many hoops and have to meet so many conditions that they either will not bother to do it, or will be incapable for one reason or another. Due to the lack of on-line information about the new law and the requirements that need to be met, one is forced to pay a specialist to help obtain the "Golden Visa" and this ends up costing a small fortune to be told you have to find a lot more money than the 500,000 euros!
The Spanish authorities are also claiming that one of the outlines for earning the visa is that the person applying must be on a yearly wage of 70,000 euros but they did not specify that you would need extra savings if you have any children and this can seriously raise the price of a golden visa.
With so many regulations and conditions to ascertain a golden visa that appear to have been hidden from applicants, governments and officials clearly need to make the process of gaining a golden visa more clear and simple for applicants.

Sacred Valley of Peru:
A Meditative Trekking Journey with Susie Harrington and Laura Tyson
Trip Itinerary
May 17-28, 2012
This itinerary has been designed to allow for a relaxed pace, with plenty of time for flexibility and individual needs. We will first spend several days in Pisac, allowing our bodies to gradually adjust to the high altitude before beginning the trek in the highlands. We will integrate our dharma practice into our travel by practicing sitting meditation every morning, and by practicing in action during the day. On most evenings we will practice and/or have check-ins and discussions in the evening. Keep in mind that we are entering a more relaxed and spontaneous culture, and some elements of this itinerary may change. Part of our practice will be in allowing things to unfold as they do, rather than as they are planned!
DAY ONE- Thursday, May 17
Leave home on Thursday. Arrive in Lima in the late evening or night, and take pre-arranged transport to a small guesthouse in a quiet neighborhood of Lima.
Fly to Cusco. We'll have lunch at a local restaurant, and spend an hour or two exploring the twisted streets and alleys of this ancient Incan city before the hour's drive to Pisac, located in the Sacred Valley beside the Urubamba river. We will stay at the Paz y Luz Bed and Breakfast, a quiet, peaceful spot just outside of the village. We'll walk into town for dinner. Massages and traditional healing treatments are available at Paz y Luz. www.pazyluzperu.com
A visit to the traditional Sunday morning market of Pisac will fully immerse us in the local culture. For centuries, locals from the surrounding Andean villages have made the trek to Pisac to barter and display their produce, livestock, weavings, jewelry, and clothing in a feast for the senses. In the afternoon we'll return to the round, open-air meeting space at Paz y Luz for practice and reflection. A home-cooked Peruvian dinner at Paz y Luz will complete the day.
In the morning we'll hike up a hillside of Incan terraces to visit the ruins above Pisac, for our introduction to the ancient Incan empire. A dramatic Temple of the Sun, intricate stonework, and sweeping views of the Sacred Valley make this one of the best ruins in the region. In the afternoon we will return to Paz y Luz for practice and discussion, and in the evening we will join a local Quechuan shaman for a despacho, a traditional ceremony of setting intention and letting go.
After morning practice and breakfast we will pack our trekking gear and begin our journey into the highlands with a several hour drive to the remote village of Quisharani, at 12,000', where we will spend the afternoon doing a local service project and visiting the small school, where the children will teach us some basic phrases in Quechua. We'll camp on the village soccer field, and have our first dinner in the dining tent where we will get to know our trekking guides and porters.
Our first day of trekking. After morning practice we'll climb up and over Huillquicasa Pass (13,800'), dropping down past turquoise lakes to the backcountry village of Cancuni (12,300'). The remoteness of this region has allowed the people to maintain their traditional potato farming, llama and alpaca herding, and weaving. Along the way we'll pass spectacular views of the Vilcanota range, and the stone huts of small communities. After 5-6 hours of trekking, we'll camp outside the village of Cancuni.
A shorter hiking day of about three hours. After our morning meditation practice we will trek over a much smaller pass to the village of Huacahuasi (12,000'), which is known for its traditional weavings. We will have time in the afternoon to explore the village, and visit some local weavers.
Today we will hike slowly up and over a 15,000' pass, dropping down to camp beside a beautiful lake at 13,500', below the glacier of Mount Montanay. This hike will take five to six hours, and will traverse spectacular, high alpine scenery.
Today we hike downhill, through forests of the native 'weeping' Quenal tree. We have lunch outside the village of Yanahuara, and then take a bus to Ollantaytamba, where we catch the afternoon VistaDome train, for an incredible three hour train ride through the Sacred Valley, following the huge whitewater of the Rio Urubamba river, below snow capped mountains rising more than two miles above us. We will spend the night at a hotel in the town of Agua Calientes, our last stop before the ruins of Machu Picchu.
We will rise very early in the morning for a quiet sunrise introduction to Machu Picchu. We'll find a quiet corner in which to practice in silence, and then our guide will explain the amazing culture behind the intricate stonework. Afterwards, you will have time to wander on your own through the magical ruins, or climb Huayna Picchu, the spire that towers over the Machu Picchu ruins. In the late afternoon we will return by train to Ollantaytambo, an ancient town on the banks of the Rio Urubamba with Incan ruins rising above.
We find ourselves in Ollantaytambo on the first day of the festival of the Pentecost- the biggest festival of the year for the town. This is a full-blown event that displays the unusual blending of Spanish Catholicism with the pantheistic indigenous traditions. We'll witness costumed dancing in the street, and any other festivities that spontaneously emerge. We'll also spend time in practice, and reflect on teachings that came from our experiences in Peru. We'll also leave time for you to wind down your trip in your own way- with a massage, journaling, a walk up the Urubamba River, or exploring the town.
After a final breakfast in Ollantaytambo, a two hour van ride to Cusco will take you to the airport for your flight to Lima, in time to catch an evening flight home. Depending on when you schedule your flight, you may have time on your own to either explore Cusco in the morning, or explore Lima in the afternoon.
Arrive home on May 29.
On-Your-Own Option
To explore the city of Cusco, plan on spending a day or two on your own at the end of the trip. Cusco is the oldest continuously inhabited city in South America, and the only city in the world intentionally laid out in the shape of a puma. It is the heart of the Incan empire, and is a unique blend of Incan culture and the rich architecture of the conquering Spaniards, built on top of exposed Incan stonework. If you want to book your return flight for a later date just let us know and we can book a good place to stay for you.

The Dynamo Dukedom Is Formed
Entry posted by mirofoss ·
112 Views
Today marks the day when the Dynamo Dukedom has officially declared sovereignty over the Continental Kingdom of Mintakous. After many days of negotiation the Kingdom of Mintakous agreed to divest itself of the entire Mintakian Peninsula; including the Isles of Las Minas. The Kingdom of Mintakous has left the peninsula "as is" and has stipulated the following conditions to the Dynamo Dukedom:
-The Mintakous Royal Military can traverse the peninsula
-The Dynamo Dukedom will connect to the Kingdom of Mintakous by road and rail in the next twenty years
-The Dynamo Dukedom will allow free trade with the Kingdom of Mintakous
At this time, the majority of the land now ruled by the Dynamo Dukedom is made up of small farms, forested land, large mountains, and a network of small rivers and lakes which criss-cross the peninsula. The peninsula is under developed with very few roads and rail links. The Dynamo Dukedom will work to develop this new sovereign state, and allow its residents, commerce, and industry to flourish.
This journal will allow the dukedom to keep its citizens, and potential citizens, informed on what is going on.

GFF Zenography #3011 KAMPFER
Ever since I came back from Japan, my fondness for Gundams have been re-ignited. I couldn't help it, everywhere I went (so it seems) there were Gundams and I finally understood why it was so popular in Japan. Most toy shops in Japan have a dedicated section just for Gundams, and most of these dedicated sections are huge compared to other toys. So I came back, went through my collection and decided it was time to take a look at a Gundam toy I've had hiding in the pile for a while.
Zenography series is an off-shoot of the main Gundam Fix Figuration line that showcases mobile suits from the Zeon forces. These figures are based on the Gundam mechanical designs of Hajime Katoki, with interchangeable parts for variant models, heaps of accessories, great articulation and fine modelling, paint and print detail.
The MS-18E Kämpfer ("Kämpfer" means "fighter" in German) was a prototype mobile suit built by the Principality of Zeon in the series Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in Pocket. Based on the YMS-18 Prototype Kämpfer, the MS-18E was developed for specific missions as a fast assault unit, hence the barrage of weapons and number of thrusters and verniers. Its high power consumption rate from the thrusters means it could rival the Federation RX series in speed but could only operate for a short period of time, so the designers had to minimize the armour plating and reducing weight by going as far as removing the hip mounted skirt plate found on most other mobile suits. The choice of conventional explosives and weapons over beam weapons were also done to minimize power drain on its powerplant. The unit was intended to be operated by Special Forces, but due to its late introduction to the war, only a few units were ever produced.
Name: #3011 MS-18E Kämpfer
Manufacturer: Bandai
Line: Zenography Expanded Edition of Gundam Fix Figuration
Sculptor: Sato Naoki, Akaba Kazuhiro
Designer: Hajime Katoki
Scale: 1/144
Material: ABS, PVC, POM
Release: Nov 2006
Original Price: ¥3,680 (approx. $48AUD / $43USD)
Secondary Market Price: N/A
Height: 130mm / 5.11inches (to top of head no including spike)
Pretty much the same same as with all GFF line figures, looks great on shelves but damn hard to unpack the contents. I'm really not a fan of the twisty wires, especially when there are so many, seems like a bit of overkill in some places. Graphics wise, it is nice and clean, with very concise information about the figure which makes for great light reading. All parts are laid out clearly so you can see exactly what you get, which is nice.
The first thing you'll notice is the shear number of extra armour parts included, they're for transforming the MS-18E Kämpfer to the menacing looking YMS-18 Prototype Kämpfer variant, shown further below. The transformation was relatively simple as parts were quite easy to snap on and off. The next thing you'll notice is the huge array of weapons this guy comes with, simply awesome. He has two 42mm pump action shotguns, one with stock and one without, two 360mm Bazookas, two Sturm Faust rocket propelled grenades, two beam sabers and a chain mine. There is also a massive Vulcan machine gun included for use with the YMS-18 Prototype Kämpfer, but looks just as deadly in the hands of the MS-18E Kämpfer. Unfortunately the tripod on the machine gun is fixed and cannot be unfolded out. Display base also included.
MS-18E Kämpfer: This is one of my favourite Zeon mobile suits, I used to have a 1/144 scale model kit of this mobile suit so when I saw there was a GFF offering, I snapped it up quick smart and boy he does not disappoint one bit. Unfortunately I no longer have the model kit figure to compare against but every detail is just as I remember it, if not better. Katoki has done a brilliant job with the design, and the sculpture really captures the formidability of this deadly assault mobile suit.
YMS-18 Kämpfer: I have to be honest, this is the first time I've ever seen the prototype Kämpfer, but the longer I look at it, the more I like it and can appreciate the slightly more angular and bulkier design of this mobile suit compared to the MS-18E. The only problem I found with this toy is that after swapping back to the MS-18E variant from the YMS-18, some of the interchangeable parts became loose.
Articulation is not too bad with this toy, but it does leave a bit to be desired. The biggest let down was the fact the arms couldn't be raised side ways horizontally, although this may be due to a limitation of the actual mobile suit design rather than a fault with the joint design on Bandai's part. I would also have liked to see more movement in the knee joints, it is such a crucial joint on any figure and it wouldn't have taken much to rectify this problem, a simple cut out or double joint would have solved the problem. I do clearly remember my model kit version having a bit more articulation than this – so it's not impossible.
Now we come to the part where the GFF series toys really shine – the paint and print department. So much printing on this toy, and done to a really good quality too. Very clear and precise, what more can you ask for? The paint job is also pretty good, although in some of the smaller areas it can get a bit wobbly, especially on a few of the yellow vent parts.
Bazookas can be mounted on the back of the Kämpfer in both variants, as well as storing a shotgun on the waist. The bonus to this is that all the clips can be taken off for a clean and sleek look. There is also a lifting "neck" joint which was a pleasant surprise as it adds one more dimension to the movement of the head.
I've only got one word to sum up this review, "more". That's right. I want more of these toys, more of the GFF series, more Zenography, more Gundams! Ok, maybe I've been slightly brainwashed since my trip to Japan but who can say no to a toy that has fantastic paint job, heaps of print detail, huge array of accessories, realistic and sharp modelling, especially for this price!
Thanks for reading my toy review, please check out my other reviews and share them with your friends if you've enjoyed it!

detox foot spa machine
detox foot spa machine
Pollution is one of the biggest factors that can bring health hazards to the human race. No matter how you take care of yourself you always end up sick and ailing. You cannot spare the environment from getting polluted. The dirty surrounding is one source of toxins that are in your body. Although your body has inherent properties to naturally get rid of toxins, the amount of this waste is too much for the human system to excrete. Cleansing and detoxification methods such as the ionic foot baths are innovative means to help the body organs and dealing with all this built up waste.
The Ionic Foot Bath use a detoxification process that can help get rid of the toxins that are mounting inside the body. The ionic foot bath stabilizes the cells in the body and the cells aid in disposing unwanted toxins in the body. A session of ionic foot bath is about 30 minutes and within that short span of time, you can begin to feel the benefits. You should feel relaxed, energized and invigorated. Your body will be supplied with renewed energy, mental concentration, improved blood circulation and better metabolism.
We are always surrounded by a lot of pollution that is contained in the environment. The pollution in the environment contains pollutants like chemicals, gases and some compounds, obviously is the gaseous state.
These pollutants get inside our body through breathing and cause a considerable amount of damage. Even when we drink the water and consume food, we need to know that they are also polluted to a certain level. Through the direct or indirect intake of such toxic chemicals and dangerous pollutants, our body starts suffering, slowly and steadily. Detoxification is the process of cleansing of the toxins from our body. The most common way of detoxification is going on a fruit diet. This cleans the body and its systems from within along with nourishing it with the vital nutrients of the fruits. There is another way of detoxification for your body, by using an Ionic foot bath.
For the people who do not want to diet or have difficulty maintaining a diet for detoxification, this is a simpler and easier way. The process of detoxification takes place by using salt water or saline water in conjunction with electrodes. You start with immersion of your feet in lukewarm salt water. Then the electrodes are also immersed in the water carefully so that they do not make any contact with your feet. A very small level of current is then passed through the electrodes with the help of a circuit into the water.
This process brings out the toxins from your body in the ionic way and deposits them in the salt water. An Ionic foot bath removes the dangerous toxins from your body with the help of ions. When these toxins get deposited in the water, the salt water changes its color. The change of color is due to the presence of the toxins in the water that came out of your body through the ionic foot bath.
The ionic detox foot bath resembles any other spa. The ionic detox works for the person's health in many ways. It is a new technology for the creation of positive and negative ions to re-energize and revitalize the body system. During the procedure of ionic detoxification, the foot bath transmits titillating currents throughout the entire body and at this time the positive ions are released. The concentration of ions thus released neutralizes the wastes and toxins and bring them to the pores of the feet from where they can be eliminated. Thirty minutes soaking can complete this helpful detox procedure.

Poverty anywhere is a threat everywhere
Breaking the cycle of poverty involves full employment and decent work. This has been a major thrust of the ILO approach. Evidence shows that decent and productive jobs, sustainable enterprises and economic transformation play a key role in reducing poverty. While development assistance remains important, countries that managed to pull themselves out of poverty were those that were able to move from low to higher productive activities, while strengthening institutions for governance and social protection for workers and their families. More on ILO's work on poverty reduction
- Haiti earthquake aftermath: 522 entrepreneurs in entrepreneurship training programmes, 53 new businesses established in the construction sector; 766 microenterprises set up focusing on debris recycling.
- Bangladesh: Since 2011, over 100,000 women and men have benefited from apprenticeships within technical and vocational education and training (ILO TVET Programme).
- The ILO has joined forces with the Africa Agriculture and Trade Investment Fund (AATIF) in a range of LDCs, including Burundi and Zambia to help assess social and environmental risks of investments in agriculture in Africa.
- Better Work Programmes: through Transparency Databases, monitors accountability and transparency in the garment sector in Bangladesh, Haiti and Lesotho.
- HIV/AIDS in Tanzania: 491 jobs created and 1201 businesses engaged to prevent the spread of HIV in transport corridors.

Late 2011 saw a fantastic 20 year re-union happen for all the old Fourways High School folks.
Sadly I was not able to attend but Colette Rieder (now Van Heerden) managed to sort it out for everyone who could.
Thanks to Michael Burril, everyone that made it was given a CD that contained scans of all the yearbooks from 1989 and a selection of scanned images and photies.
Colette very kindly sent this to me in Wales (after an aborted attempt to get it to me through people in ZA, thanks Brett Fischer for that effort, sorry my peeps let us all down there).
So, I am not making an ISO available for download as that would mean burning a CD. I have zipped the contents into a single file for you to download if you want. You can find it here. It is 243 MB in size.
If you would rather browse around, I have dumped the various files into the same folder structure so you can peruse and download as you want.
- Images captured between 1991 and 1992 (In this series of folders is also the 1988 founders class photo's)
- The 1989 year book (PDF)
- The 1990 year book (PDF)
- The 1991 year book (PDF)
- The 1992 year book (PDF)
In order to expedite the process I have decided that I will get this all into a much prettier format at a later date, so I welcome everybody sending me any old photo's that you may have lying around so I can add them in here. You can mail them to
I will set up a proper gallery that allows us to browse around through the images and view thumbnails and download full versions. I just don't have the time right now 🙁 Sorry…

Maybe I am not explaining myself properly.
To prolong a cert an RWC or other responsible person signs to verify the welder has been complying with the welding requirements for the previous 6 months.
How can they do that if he/she has only been with the company 3 months ?
If they don't sign to prolong after 3 months (when the original 6 months is up) the welder is no longer qualified.
If they do sign to prolong they have committed fraud as they have no idea what the welder was doing in the 3 months prior to joining the new company.
Clear as mud - LOL ?

Hi BB, Thanks for your reply, I completely understand your interpretation now!
My interpretation is slightly different, the 6 monthly prolongation verifies the welder has been working within his range of approval
the last 6 months rather than continuously for the past 6 months. Meaning if I break my leg and take a month off or if I go on holiday for a month or 3, I wont come back 'unqualified'.
I'm not particularly saying my interpretation is the correct one, the standard is actually quite vague under section 9.2 with the requirements for prolongation.
It's good to see different interpretations and highlight vague areas in the standards though!

I agree with you andye611
If I took a holiday or even a day off within the 6 months would the QA department be committing fraud for stamping my cert. another possibility is that I might be welding one day but not up to the spec of my cert, fillet welds when my cert is for pipe welding. If the company stamped my cert it would be fraud because one day in 6 months I wasn't welding up to the spec. Now we're getting rediculous.
When I hand over all my Certs to a company, I expect the company to keep them all validated whether I weld to the spec on all my Certs or not.
I have several 6g and 6gr Certs of different combinations of welding processes on different materials. This has never been an issue here in Britian to get them all stamped, it might be different in other countries where welding to these standards is deemed hard, but amongst the oil n gas fraternity here in Britian we all know that it's not hard to pass a 6g/ 6gr weld test.
A welding cert doesn't make you a good welder, it allows you to become a good welder.

As I said it is a grey area - not very well detailed at all.
Look at ASME IX
Welder performs a qualification test and passes.
A welder does no welding for 3 months - no problem.
As soon as he strikes an arc using the same process as he qualified with his quals are extended for a further 6 months.
He can not do any welding for 5 months and 29 days and the same applies.
The whole reasoning behind this is the quals are only valid for the employer that had operational control / responsibility of the welding.
You would never have the issue as noted in the OP because the quals are not transferrable between companies.

Totally agree,
All the above is currently what's wrong with the testing/coding/paying your own certs nonsense that is going on in the uk now.
While I was testing out for a well know uk based company, I asked the testing company how much these tests I was doing would cost?
I was quoted £2k to qualify me for (with out materials or consumables included)
1x6" schd 160 tig/stick 6g (carbon)
1x6" schd 160 tig flux cored 6g (carbon)
1x2" schd 80 Tig 6g (carbon)
1x2" schd 80 tig (stainless)
3x1/2" schd 160 6g (stainless)
3x1/2" schd 160 6g (carbon)
Plus 4 fillet welds.
Why on earth would I pay £2000+ for all that just to work for a poxy agency on £15 a hour?
And the guy's who are paying for there own certs need to have there heads looked at!!

Section 365, Mandatory Bankruptcy Rules and Inefficient Continuance
Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code prohibits enforcement of the once common "ipso facto" clause." The clause excuses the solvent party from performance of the contract when the other party becomes insolvent. We show that the ability of insolvent firms to continue bad projects is enhanced by the absence of ipso facto clauses. Without such a clause, the firm can exploit the inability of courts always to assess expectation damages accurately to compel a solvent party to stay in a bad deal. An ipso facto clause would preclude this outcome because the clause permits the solvent party to exit costlessly. Further, an ipso facto clause improves the managers' incentive to exert effort to avoid financial distress. These results have two broader implications. First, that the important mandatory rule regulating the ability of solvent parties to exit is inefficient suggests that the justifications for the Bankruptcy Code's other mandatory rules should be rethought. Second, under free contracting, the inefficient continuance of insolvent firms would be less of a problem than it now is because the ability of contract partners to withhold future performances sometimes would stop bad projects

Complaining and murmuring is the preset disposition of the natural man, and too often it becomes the preoccupation of our hearts. Thomas Watson reminds us where complaining and murmuring comes from:
Murmuring is no better than mutiny in the heart; it is a rising up against God. When the sea is rough and unquiet, it casts forth nothing but foam. When the heart is discontented, it casts forth the foam of anger, impatience, and sometimes little better than blasphemy. Murmuring is nothing else but the scum which boils off from a discontented heart. (Watson, The Art of Divine Contentment, 18)
The next time you find yourself complaining and murmuring remember, complaining is the overflow of a heart dissatisfied with God. A heart that is satisfied with God & His provision does "all things without grumbling or disputing" (Phil 2:14).

According to a Rasmussen poll, more voters now trust Republicans more than Democrats to handle the economy, by a margin of 45-39
And the Democratic leads over Republicans on their core issues are also dropping. Particularly interesting is the Democratic decline over healthcare, from an 18-point lead in May to only 10 points now.
Gallup poll also confirms that the president's personal ratings are high, but the underlying data less so. While 67 percent of voters give Obama personal favorable ratings and 61 percent approve of his job performance (Rasmussen has his job approval lower, at 55 percent), they give him much lower ratings on specific issues.
As it becomes clearer that the deficit caused by spending has landed us in a new economic crisis, entirely of Obama's own making, his popularity and job performance are likely to drop as well.

No, anon :14, it doesn't make me happy. It does however make me hopeful that voters see that choosing a leader isn't all about flowery words and wordy whimsical speeches. I hope with the worsening economic climate that voters start to really understand that you can't get out of debt by creating more debt. I hope that the next election will bring forth a leader with experience in foreign policy, national security, as well as some business experience.
Your pp has me wondering if you are new to this section of Cafemom, or if you just haven't been comprehending what is under the fundamental difference of opinion on the subject of Obama.

|Rock 'n' roll ain't noise pollution, rock 'n' roll ain't gonna die. Rock 'n' roll ain't noise pollution. Rock 'n' roll, it will survive.

|Now that's just where you're wrong Anon2. Recent studies show that rock and roll is, in fact, dying. Popular music has been on the wane since 1974, the year of the first Bad Company release.

|Let's see if I can't put this into terms you'll understand. Say you had 12 beers... Now let's say that four of those beers represent the Pogues, another six represent the Gypsy Kings, and one beer is shared by The Chieftains and Lady Smith Black Mombaza.

I just got back from the A&P with my husband who attempted white collar shoplifting, used me (unbeknownst to me) as his accomplice and got caught.
He "bought" 2 cans of ultra-premium pasta sauce ($8 per can) by placing them into his cart. He then used 2 coupons to get them for free. As he scanned each coupon, he handed them over to me to give to the cashier. During this transaction, I was not allowed to chit chat with him. I didn't understand why he was being so grouchy. My attempts to make friendly talk was met with aggressive shushing and belligerent waving of the hands. Any way, then he scanned another coupon and asked me to give that coupon ($4 off) to the cashier. His criminal mind was trying to scam $4 from innocent parties. The $4 off coupon was for the sauces that he already got for free. He wanted them to pay him!!! He wanted his net to be 2 jars of sauce and +$4!!!
The cashier stopped him dead in his tracks, called him out on it. "What?! You got the sauce for free, you can't use another coupon!" she chastised. Josh wasn't even embarrassed. "So? I know!" he bellowed proudly and took the coupon back. If I were her, I would've ripped up the coupon and scare him a little by calling the cops. In any case, I wanted to bury my head in the sand.

It just makes me sick. And to think that he had to involve you and subject you to embarrassment. At the Price Chopper yesterday S. got two tubes of toothpaste, two Clif energy bars and 3 apples for free. AND (the apples were scanned incorectly) when she went to customer service for a 'refund' on the apples (not just to be charged the sale price) she said "Is that all you can do for me?" and the woman handed over a $2 shopping coupon for her next trip to the store. Some people have 'chutzpah.' But I think S's experience was more legit than J's.

Whatever you do, don't let him know that you can go online to NYTimes.com and claim that your newspaper never turned up and you want a credit - they won't check, and you'll get a free paper!
But don't make the mistake of accidentally donating that paper to a school or anything naff like that, rookie mistake! HAHAHA!

by Eliot Schrefer
About the book: From National Book Award Finalist Eliot Schrefer comes the compelling tale of a girl who must save a group of bonobos -- and herself -- from a violent coup. Congo is a dangerous place, even for people who are trying to do good. When Sophie has to visit her mother at her sanctuary for bonobos, she's not thrilled to be there. Then Otto, an infant bonobo, comes into her life, and for the first time she feels responsible for another creature. But peace does not last long for Sophie and Otto. When an armed revolution breaks out in the country, the sanctuary is attacked, and the two of them must escape unprepared into the jungle. Caught in the crosshairs of a lethal conflict, they must struggle to keep safe, to eat, and to live. In ENDANGERED, Eliot Schrefer plunges us into a heart-stopping exploration of the things we do to survive, the sacrifices we make to help others, and the tangled geography that ties us all, human and animal, together.
My thoughts: This book will make you fall in love with bonobos and will make you want to take up the cause to ensure their safety and survival. I loved this book. It taught me about a species of ape that I have never even heard of before. Schrefer creates a vividly realized setting and a harrowing portrait of
the chaos of a country at war. I enjoyed Schrefer's portrayal of
the unbreakable bond between Sophie and Otto, and the close,
awe-inspiring look at bonobos in general.Check out the book trailer below!!!

About the author: Eliot Schrefer is the author of The Deadly Sister, The School for Dangerous Girls, Glamorous Disasters, and The New Kid. He lives in New York City, and has never discovered any bodies. Visit him online at www.eliotschrefer.com.

The battle between MLOK and keymod continues apace. Keymod was first out of the blocks to offer a really solid modular attachment system, but Magpul's MLOK system is gaining ground due to the ease of manufacturing and Magpul's undeniable special sauce. The problem for consumers is that the systems force you to choose — you can either stock up on MLOK or keymod rail sections, but they aren't cross compatible. Strike Industries is looking to change that with their new rail sections, which interface just as easily with both keymod and MLOK. Buy once, run everywhere? We'll see — we have some sections inbound for testing.
They are also launching two new rail kits, one in keymod and one in MLOK, that are designed to be slim and sleek as well as offering some nifty extras like a built-in flip up front sight and 7 available lengths. The internal diameter is going to be 1.51 inches, which should be just big enough to slot a silencer inside for those looking to make an integral-ish suppressed rifle. Which should be sweet.
Stay tuned.
10 Responses to New From Strike Industries: Rail Sections Compatible with Both Keymod and MLOK
Great! Now that the MLOK vs. keymod argument has been resolved, we can get back to caliber wars.
now that was funny
Awe, geez dair Edith, there you go again complicating my life! I was happily unaware of MLOK!
Effing brilliant!
I'll be honest, my initial impression of Strike Industries was not a good one. They have those seriously goofy muzzle devices.
Now it seems they're starting to put out some truly useful parts.
Huh. Hope it works. That'd be a thing of beauty.
Oh, good, the battle between MLOK and KEYMOD was beginning to sound like the battle between GOG and Magog
Capitalism . . . when it's good, it's very, *very* good.
To be blunt, I didn't have a good first impression of Strike Industries. Their muzzle devices look downright goofy and several of their products appear to be designed with no purpose in mind other than to look mall ninja.
I'm glad to see they're coming out with some useful-looking products. This new rail adapter is a great solution for someone who isn't sure whether to go KMOD or MLOK. It makes the decision less of a commitment.
Keymod is a dead man walking.
First off until the military adopts one of these new rail types, 1913 is going to be the defacto standard for a LONG time. ALL accessories are compatible 1913….as in ALL.
Second M-LOK is just better in every way. It is also cheaper and easy to make. It has MAGPUL behind it.
Keymod is getting burned my accessory makers not properly adhering to the keymod standard and not machining a proper chanfer into their products. Just google "Keymod attachments falling off". These accessories are either falling off or tearing up the rails as people try to tighten them more. M-LOK does not have the chanfer and it makes it easier overall.
