Of starting new projects! I just looked at all of the projects I started in the last few years and it just makes me sick. There are 52 and most likely more than that. I know others have much more and I am not alone in this tragedy. When is enough, ENOUGH? I am at my witts end with this problem. I got this way several years ago when I only had 11 models unfinished and decided to make a marathon run to finish them all. I did finish them ALL before starting anything else and it felt great!
What makes it easier , is the fact some of them are almost done and it's merely down to small details or just foil work. It's been one hell of a struggle for me in the last year. I seriously want to build and well finding the time is one thing....I have a family that needs me and well, there is more to life than just models. With that said, I still have to remind that I have plans to build much of the stock I have before it's "my time"....no idea when that will be, but it's something I want to enjoy while I am here.
I made up my mind to do something. I am going to seriously take a look at my kits and parts and everything else......decide what exactly I believe I will use during this lifetime and the rest is going up for sale! That's it!
My kids will inherit what I have at my departure, but I can't keep all this crap around....it's literally exhausting and depressing to look at.
I remember when I was a kid and had less than 20 models during a certain point and every single one was built. I could not afford to buy kits, so I would take them apart, swap parts and rebuild them just for the satisfaction. Remembering back to that, it makes no sense to have so many models as all it does for me is overwhelm my motivation.
Update: June 1st.
I have made a little progress in this mission. I have sold several kits and still plan to sell some more. There is so much going on , it's overwhelming at times.... I just can't wait until it's over with and we can (my family) get back to normal and enjoy life the way we all should!

A couple of weeks ago, I attended a rehearsal for the upcoming project, Ballet Confessions, a dance, music, and art installation about the physical and psychological effects of the ballet world, by Mary Ellen Beaudreau. The creative process was beautiful to watch, a manifestation of art stemming from self-reflection, on life, post-ballet.
Since the age of four Mary Ellen has dedicated her life to ballet, dancing with San Francisco Ballet and North Carolina Dance Theater and then delving into modern dance at The Juilliard School and performing with Pilobolus Dance Theater.
Dancers, in the public mind, are impossible athletes: we see them execute the classics with intense perfection, but rarely hear them speak outside of the imaginary narratives like Black Swan or Center Stage. Even rarer, is to witness creative expression from dancers once they've outgrown the competitive demands of the ballet industry.
Ballet Confessions inverts the world of ballet on it's head: the music (warbled Romeo & Juliet), the props (piles of "dead" pointe shoes and a giant tutu), the movements (hands instead of feet). It studies the arc typical to most dancers: stereotype, discovery, euphoria, obsession, destruction, and then; renewal.
It began in 2012 at a SITI Company theater workshop, when she happened to run into two ex-ballerinas. They began a dialogue about their time in the insular world of ballet, trading stories like old war veterans. Mary Ellen recorded them speaking, and went on to give voice to six other ballet dancers, ranging from thirteen to seventy-five years old.
In some ways, the ballet world is a mirror of the real world. Females are treated as objects, and the men are favored and told to be stronger rather than thinner. We're all born with innate creativity, but then forced to mold ourselves into the shapes society provides us with.
What happens when the mold we've been conforming to for so many years, breaks? What happens when our world changes, when we lose something close that we've held onto for so long? How do we move forward?
Ballet Confessions is a beautiful inspiration for how creation can be birthed from destruction and reflection. It examines how the rigid world of ballet constricts art to an impeccable form, and what happens to the body and self once free of the constriction. It's a metaphor for anyone who has dared to fall in love, tried to conform to expectations, or has been betrayed.

This is a great option visiting lovely Crete in Winter time.
A winter package, 3 nights in picturesque town of Chania, for a short break in Crete.
"Out of season" and "off-season" the right time to enjoy Crete's more peaceful nature, sites and gastronomy. Winter months offer the chance to explore the uncrowded vision of Crete.
Indeed, most people have in mind that Crete is a Summer destination, but surely a winter break on the island can offer a very wonderful experience. With very few tourists but sunny weather, Crete in wintertime is a delightful place to explore the great nature, swimming (in November and December water temperature is around 22°C ) and discovering the local authentic lifestyle.
3 Nights In Chania - Winter Short Break In Crete
Day 1 :
You will be met at Chania airport for your transfer to your hotel in the old town. Evening at leisure. Overnight in Chania
Day 2 :
Enjoy a private walking tour around the old town and the Venetian port. Our walk will allow you to visit the most important sites, such as the Venetian fortifications, the Arsenals, the 1860 Greek Orthodox Cathedral, the Food Market, the Etz Hayyim Synagogue, and the Turkish quarters behind the inner harbour. The tour will also bring out plenty of hidden spots off the beaten track, which reflect the mix of influences that has given Chania its very unique atmosphere. A walk through time, the tour promises to help you gain an understanding of how the city's multilayered history has unfolded. Rest of the day at leisure. Overnight in Chania
Day 3 :
Today's guided tour will travel you through scenic countryside and unspoilt villages and offer a journey in the island's heart with an in- depth look at the past and an intimate perspective of today's Crete , its people, culture and landscapes Driving towards the Akrotiri peninsula, our first visit is to the monastery of Agia Triada Tzagarolon. Built in the 17th century, with a majestic cruciform church, it is set on a wonderfully overgrown landscape of olive groves, vineyards and cypress trees. We will visit the premises and learn about their great produce of organic olive oil and wine. Continuing our drive towards the verdant province of Apokoronas, we will stop by the Fortress of Koules, set on an impressive position with views over Souda Gulf.

Again this year stackoverflow is presenting the survey results:
A lot of interesting details can be seen there based on developer profiles, technology and work!
A nice article about the startups here in Berlin listed by tube station!
I think this talk speaks for itself!
Now nearly a year ago I was put on new task:
Optimize the performance of an application I did not know before.
This was not a really a new tasks for me, but I was a little worried about the available tools outside. They work, but it is mostly hard to find the performance issue.
During this time Blackfire was already in beta and in the end of November a colleague and me got access. So I tried the same also with Blackfire. In the end I could not find anything for this project. But I really liked Blackfire.
Some month later I started to profile the performance of the homepage of a different project. Here I could very quickly find some issues and within one day I was able to double the performance of the homepage. To bad that I don't have those profiles anymore.
On my current project we are mostly serving an API for mobile devices. So I took one day to profile every API endpoint. First I could not find any specific, but after I added 20.000 test items (and also over 6000 items are related to my test user) the performance of one Endpoint dropped to around 3.x seconds.
Here is to bad profile for the endpoint:
(note: screenshot say 18s but during this time the importer was still running)
Spot (what you can see in the screenshot) is the small ORM we use in our project. I quickly realized that there where 6426 entities created – which is definitely wrong :).
The issue was quickly found. All related items where fetched and counted (picardpalm) instead of using a real count query. So the fix for this issue was also very quick:
The result with the next profiling:
208ms instead of 3.x seconds.
Without Blackfire and the testdata we would not have found this problem until someone hits the amount of items which could took some month.
If you did not worked with Blackfire: Try it out. Its really worth the time you invest. And it offers much more I just described here.
Old! But still the truth!
Here are some of my alltime favorite comics for developers.
Right now I am looking for a new job located in Berlin or Brandenburg (near Falkensee).
Watch my profile at Xing or LinkedIn.
My entry date could be 01.07.2014.
I just found on twitter a nice Symfony service config converter: http://converter.rosstuck.com/
Also usable as a symfony command.
I think this is great to convert examples into your desired format.
And a simple link is pretty boring! So there are two more links…
A very nice tutorial from Fabien Potencier. And it is also a good start to get an overview over some symfony components.
An – for me – older link is the cheatsheet:
Just noticed that I did not used it so far… damn you… google search box!
Design your Database inside MySQL-Workbench and get a nearly completely auto generated Sonata Admin from your MySQL-Workbench schemata.
Working as a web-developer I was mostly confronted to create a unique and custom data model for the customer. I started to use MySQL-Workbench to design my data structure and followed on that I looked for a way to get my created structure directly into PHP models and an auto generated database.
Years ago for the bmw motorcyle community (Zend Framework) I started with a simple macro to just create to create the database structure. After that I used Doctrine to generate my models. So I used it only as a project start.
With an auction platform for the "Österreichische Bundesforste AG" (Agavi) I found a nice schema exporter for the MySQL-Workbench. After some testing I could make some steps further. With the yaml export and the doctrine "generate-migrations-diff" I could also auto generate migrations after changing my data model inside MySQL-Workbench.
Now with Symfony I am still using the schema exporter from johmue. I created a fork to fit my needs for my Symfony projects and it fits perfectly to get an easy and quick way from the MySQL-Workbench to a Sonata-Admin. And I created a Bundle the integrate the exporter into Symfony.
php composer.phar require hydrax-skarrag/mwbs-exporter:dev-master --no-update
php composer.phar require hydrax-skarrag/mwbs-exporter-symfony-bundle:dev-master --no-update
php composer.phar install
Configure Exporter Bundle:
See https://github.com/HydraxSkarrag/mwbs-exporter-symfony-bundle#configuration
schema_name here refers to name of the Workbench file without the extension (mwb). Workbench files are saved in the Resources/workbench/ directory as *.mwb inside your bundle.
bundle: YourBundle
bundleNamespace: "YourBundle"
repositoryNamespace: "YourBundle\\Entity"
entityNamespace: ""
useAnnotationPrefix: "ORM\\"
generateBaseClasses: true
useAutomaticRepository: true
skipPluralNameChecking: false
enhanceManyToManyDetection: true
filename: "%%entity%%.%%extension%%"
backupExistingFile: false
indentation: 4
quoteIdentifier: false
I think the MySQL Workbench is pretty much self explaining. Create your tables and relations and than save your file to your Bundle /Ressources/workbench/schema_name.mwb
Export your schema and create your database tables:
Export the schema:
app/console mwbs:export-entities
Check the changes to your database:
doctrine:schema:update --dump-sql
Update your database:
doctrine:schema:update --force
Install Sonata Admin:
See the offical dokumentation: http://sonata-project.org/bundles/admin/master/doc/reference/installation.html
I am using the SonataDoctrineORMAdminBundle.
Follow to Step 2.1 http://sonata-project.org/bundles/admin/master/doc/reference/getting_started.html and stop after this step (2.1). You can use the sonata generator for the following steps.
I suggest to create an extra bundle for you admin generator.
e.g. YourProjectAdminBundle.
To create the admin classes you can use this command:
php app/console sonata:admin:generate
Run your Sonata Admin and get lucky:
Browse to your site with /admin.
As you can see, the admin generator does not auto include your references. You have to add in on your own. And the ID for the edit mask should be removed.
Please use the comments!
There are several good articles on installing MacPorts.
You can simply follow the instructions in the articles above. To get the basic extensions for symfony you can use one of the following port installs. Depending on the PHP version you want to use. I like the side by side version.
standard PHP:
sudo port install php5-curl php5-mysql php5-sqlite php5-xdebug php5-mbstring php5-iconv php5-posix php5-apc php5-intl php5-openssl php5-gd php5-zip
side by side:
sudo port install php54-curl php54-mysql php54-sqlite php54-xdebug php54-mbstring php54-iconv php54-posix php54-apc php54-intl php54-openssl php54-gd php54-zip
sudo port install php53-curl php53-mysql php53-sqlite php53-xdebug php53-mbstring php53-iconv php53-posix php53-apc php53-intl php53-openssl php53-gd php53-zip

Paul has been invaluable in providing accountancy services for my small business. As a small business owner, my time is valuable and so it's great having the piece of mind that I can rely on Paul to sort out my accounts for me. He is always prompt and clear in explaining anything I don't understand and I look forward to working with him well into the future.
Paul did a great job with our accounts. He delivered on deadline with minimum hassle for us. He uses technology very well and this helps provide top-notch service.
Paul was a delight to work with. Flexible, understanding and endlessly patient; I would recommend him in a heartbeat.
This is the first time I have used cloud based accounting. It has been a refreshing change. I found Paul to be extremely helpful in setting things up being a new user. Communication was done by email and i always received a response within a day. Very knowledgeable and excellent communication. And a fantastic bonus was that the service was 1/3 cheaper than what i was paying using a traditional accountant. I would without hesitation recommend Paul. Just brilliant.
It took me a while to find an accountant that understands the needs of the modern times. Paul is very good at using cloud systems that reduces unnecessary paperwork (specially in printed form), and accelerate communications. My accounting and bookkeeping is less annoying now. Thanks Paul.

Potato Nachos
- Slice potatoes into small circles about 1/4 inch thick.
- Lightly coat the potato slices with oil (or spray for 3 seconds with cooking spray).
- Arrange slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the oven at 450 degrees for 25-30 minutes, depending on desired darkness.
- Meanwhile, add ground turkey and chili powder to a skillet. Cook, stirring over medium heat (300 in an electric skillet) for 8-10 minutes or until turkey browns.
- Remove potatoes from the oven.
- Transfer baked potatoes to a casserole dish or an oven-safe dish. Top with turkey and sprinkle with cheese. Put back in the oven to melt the cheese, about 2 minutes.
- Remove from oven and top with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cilantro, and salsa.
- Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours.
5 Comments for "Potato Nachos"
These are delicious! The whole family loved them. I added cumin and garlic powder to the turkey, but everything else was great. I love that they have so many fresh veggies as toppings. It was a huge hit with the family!
So, so good! Such a unique take on nachos! The potatoes worked perfectly as the "chips" and the cucumber was a surprisingly great topping - couldn't get enough. We did add olives, guacamole and low-fat sour cream as topping options and served with the Food Hero retried bean soup which also made a great dipping sauce for the potatoes. You do really need to watch the potatoes carefully as the cook as jgallup02 mentioned. Oh and we make it half vegetarian with beans on that half instead of meat.
These were great and a hit with my family. I would suggest watching the potatoes carefully so they do not burn. Using a mandoline really speeds the process of getting the potatoes sliced quickly, and thinly.
How very original. I've never thought to make nachos with potatoes.
Great! I am definitely going to make this again! Next time I am going to add some garlic powder to the trukey.

Impact of Interpersonal Problem-Solving Training on Preschooler's Behavioral Adjustment.
Sharp, Kay Colby
The relationship between interpersonal problem-solving training and behavioral adjustment was examined for 54 black, low-income preschool children. Pre- and post-testing was done with two interpersonal problem-solving measures designed by Shure and Spivack, Shure and Spivack's Hahnemann Preschool Behavior Rating Scale which classroom teachers were asked to complete for each child, and the Sharp Behavior Identification Checklist which was used to observe the children in small play groups. The children's scores on the behavior rating scale were used to classify children as adjusted, inhibited, or impulsive. Following preliminary analyses of pre-test data, children were assigned to one of three conditions. The problem-solving training condition consisted of interpersonal cognitive problem-solving training exactly as set down by Shure and Spivack. The modified problem-solving training condition employed Shure and Spivack's lessons with the exception of the first twelve on prerequisite language skills. In the attention placebo control condition, the children received a general cognitive enrichment program stressing language and number concepts. Children within each condition met in small groups with their trainer outside the classroom for 15-20 minutes a day for a total of 44 days. The findings suggest that problem-solving training does not mediate improvement in preschoolers' behavioral adjustment whether one uses teachers' ratings or independent observations of the children's behavior.

Bitcoin: Will we ever actually bank with it?
The product of an anonymous and secretive mastermind.Used by criminals trading online through a "Silk Road" of illicit drugs and weapons – the founder of which website is now serving life in jail.
The price explosion of Bitcoin this year, fetching more than $US10,000 at times, has brought Bitcoin back to the attention of mainstream media – where it has been dismissed for almost a decade since it was launched by a bunch of internet nerds after the collapse of Lehman Brothers.
When the post is a nightmare for small business
It's the busiest time of the year for small business owners. The orders are flooding in, and online orders are being packed and sent to customers via Australia Post, one of the growing number of alternative services or a courier service. But the fact is that not all parcels will arrive on time. Or even at all.
The courier pick-up and delivery services in Australia is a $5 billion industry shared between 17.055 businesses and growing 2.4 percent between 2013 and 2018, according to IBISWorld figures released in November.
Why small businesses are in trouble
Access to justice is a recurring issue for small business people who are at the wrong end of a power imbalance in dealings with big business and governments.
Consumer protections don't always apply to small businesses, which have limited options in seeking resolution.
Christmas kick in the guts for small business: Sunday Penalty Rates face increase
Australia, 1 December 2017: Small businesses face a crushing blow as the recent reduction in Sunday Penalty Rates could be repealed in time for Christmas, abandoning small businesses across Australia, in what should be the highest sale period of the year.
Australia's largest independent retail and home delivery group, the lottery and newsagents industry, are appalled that our government representatives would increase our costs – particularly at the busiest time for retailers, when running costs are already high. This will spell disaster for the small business, the backbone of Australia's economy, along with employment levels.
Black economy hot spots blitz
The Australian Taxation Office has launched an audit blitz on neighbourhoods across the nation with high concentrations of cash-only businesses, including restaurants, hairdressers and beauty parlours.
The blitz is part of a covert war on the black economy that has already yielded $200 million.

Agree on the No Odor front.
Another that concerns me, especially in winter is No Static Electricity. Cloth material that generates a static charge is not a good thing for working with film holders. Not to mention getting zapped with a shock when it is 20 below zero does get to be painful.

Winter's Respite Read-a-thon Wrap-up
I did average my 50 pages a day, although I didn't read 50 each day. I ended up with 426 pages read and only one book finished. I watched too much TV this weekend, including the Pride and Prejudice mini-series Saturday and two episodes of Downton Abbey(since I missed last weeks, I had to play catch up yesterday). I finished The Night Dance by Suzanne Weyn for my two fairy tale challenges. I am about halfway through Iron Daughter and a fourth of the way through Red Garden and Goddess Inheritance. I did not get to read any of Mind Games yet. However this is still better than I normal do in a week, so I am pleased with my progress. How did your read-a-thon go? For others wrap-ups, the wrap-ups are here. Thanks again to Michelle @ The True Book Addict and Castle Macabre for hosting!

Yep. It's true. I had two personal (not robo-call) voicemail messages from him yesterday. I missed both calls, but he did leave me a direct number to reach him. He wants to talk specifically about the issues and concerns we have.
I'll get about 15 min max with him because one of his voicemail messages said, "I'm between hearings right now and have about 15 minutes to talk to you." So a couple thoughts:
1. WE PERSISTED and we got a response. Ok, it is not an in-person Town Hall, but we finally got a personal response. And yes, I take his calls to me to be in response to our collective work. So keep persisting. Our presence is known and again, legitimized.
2. With the 15 minutes I'll get, please comment below what topics you want me to raise. Right now, what are the top 3 messages we need him to hear? And for those of you that don't know me personally, I'm a lawyer by trade, and not the least bit uncomfortable with having direct conversations and holding people accountable, in a respectful way. So just know that I will do that on our behalf.
3. While this is only one phone call, I want to say that it is symbolic of the fact that he knows we are holding him accountable, but we are using civic engagement and democracy as it was intended to be used. Thank you for being engaged, intentional, respectful, and strong-willed for Montana.

The more time you may have your Mac and Macbook, the sluggish it can actually get. Why? Quite a lot of things might play a part to present you the reply to this inquiry. We will protect the leading criteria that is certainly plaguing your Mac in this post. Then, we will express and make it easier to figure out how one can minimize the slowness you might be struggling with on your Mac. Let us examine some things that is usually reducing your Mac's macrunningslow.net velocity and satisfaction.
Can Be Your MACBOOK'S DESKTOP Rich In "STUFF"?
Have you got a couple of clutter on top of your Mac desktop panel? A lot of records, applications, screenshots, and so forth chilling out on top of your panel can slow objects off. What you can do is clean it up-eliminate needless clutter since you would at your house.
Only get out of what you need and employ most as readily available onto your Mac desk top. It can take up room and solutions in case you have a great number of mess you have piled up onto your desk top display. Now that you've cleared up some of the computer files, apps, and so on, you will regain much of the quickness you had.
Have You Repeat Graphics?
As you are very likely cognizant, just about everything that is digitized-is. This includes graphics. I wager the majority of there are many graphics stashed away in the Mac. We of course do. We are for certain its possible you have some duplicate graphics occupying expensive place during your Mac hard disk. Receive a huge, strong take a look at pictures range that you have acquired, and you are bound to unearth more than one backup of the small number or even more of images. Do you really would need a couple of the exact same visualize? Likely your solution will be a massive excessive fat "no." If you've became an extensive photograph range, normally it takes up an important chunk of room space-and duplicates just additionally. What you'll might like to do is take away the twice-takes you've compiled and take away them. This is sure to deliver you with lumbar region more space onto your Mac and take off one other portion of the slowness element that is positioning your Mac hostage with full speed constraints.
Is The Harddisk Just about AT Maximum Functionality?
More your Mac disk drive fulfills up, the lesser swiftness your computer is capable of procuring. This will be a main influence on the destruction of swiftness as time goes by. The fuller the difficult commute, the a reduced amount of zippy you will notice your Mac has come to be.
What to do apart from the noticeable-deleting concerns and freeing up some location for stuff you no longer will want but might benefit from once again later on-is make back up. If your main Mac lacks an internal Disc/DVD/Blu-ray drive the car, ago essential things to a lightweight Usb 2 . 0 force, thumb put, or NAS network obtainable storing gain.
By changing your records, workouts, apps, snapshots, game, or anything else over the disk drive of this Mac, you are bound to see some essential boost renovations over your equipment.

Who are you to be so inhumane towards another with no care for their families, their friends, their person, which you have stolen their loved one, their fellow man, their life in order to make yourself feel whole in the depths of your own bottomless abyss of nothing within.
