Just peel back the foil and put it in the microwave. For Thanksgiving I am treating myself to the large size Hungry Man dinner.
What Could Go Wrong With This?
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Subdeacon Joe's topic in SASS Wire SaloonBack in the 1960s myself and one other guy from the ROTC rifle team got hired by the local University. The pigeon feathers and poop were playing havoc with the AC systems. They gave us each a pellet rifle, a big box of pellets and a burlap sack and told us to go and kill pigeons. We killed bags of those things every weekend. A bunch of local hippies took them at the end of each day and ate them. (Squab.) We were doing great until one weekend one beady eyed liberal professor saw us and went ballistic. He managed to get the program stopped and we lost our source of income and the hippies lost a source of food.
She looks awful cute in the photos and I don't have to buy her a banquet ticket.
I'll take it for Winter Range.
Driver license renewal
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Perro Del Diablo's topic in SASS Wire SaloonArizona is the same way. To get the new style hi-security driver's license they give you a sheet of paper divided into three sections. You have to have a piece of evidence from each of the three sections. Had to go home and dig them up and come back. Needed if you want to be able to use your driver's license to get on an airplane.
Morning Larsen, if you dont sell the rugers in 32 mag at winter range please contact me. Thank You Oak Creek Martin

Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to shotguntom's topic in SASS WireHere is one of my Lightning pushers. This one is made from a .30-30 and some aluminum rod. Fits in a cartridge loop.
I have been trying to get more information but the Match Director for the WB match is out of town. Basically the WB side matches are not in the schedule because the WB shooters decided a few years ago that only people signed up for the WB match should be able to shoot the WB side matches. So, the side matches have basically become an ad hoc affair. Depending on how tired people are they hold the side matches on Monday, Tuesday, or both after the match shooting for the day has ended. They use props and targets that we do not include in the regular side matches and decide what they want to shoot themselves. Since only WB shooters can shoot the WB side matches the shooters just spread the word among themselves. This year there are 133 shooters signed up for the WB match which is the most that have ever shot the WB match anywhere in the world.
Larsen, I've been reading about the expansion of classes into sub categories, provided the numbers exist. Will you be offering Elderstatesman Duelist or Silver Senior Duelist at WR?. How many will you need if either is offered? I am Currently signed up for WR as a Senior Duelist, because at the time there was nothing more offered, but at age 71 could qualify for either Elderstatesman Duelist or Silver Senior Duelist, if offered.......and would be willing to make the switch...
Your thoughts please. Thank you Rootin Tootin 21707
I'm thinking of making a 7 1/2 Ruger Vaquero. I have a barrel from a new model Blackhawk that will fit an Old Model Vaquero but want a blade front site since it needs to be a Vaquero with a 7 1/2 barrel to be legal for SASS.
Duece shoots 7 inchers that he built and thought I'd try and build one to see if there is any benefit over my 5 1/2's
That's why the question.
after pouring off the dirty water, rinsing and pouring off the rinse water I just pour the brass and SS pellet mix into the separator and start turning. I see no need for putting water into the separator. My separator has a Claim Shell type top that closes and keeps all the SS pellets inside. After a few turns, I just pour the pellets back in the tumbling drum, ready for a new batch of dirty cases. You are gonna LOVE the results you get with the wet tumbling. Just for your information, 99% of my brass cleaning is on Straight walled cases such as 38 spl and 32 H&R, and I have no problem with pellets hanging inside the cases. I doubt that you will have any problem with the slight necked down 44-40. It might become a problem with some highly necked down rifle cases. However I did some 7.69 X 39 cases and had no problem.
When Lipseys had a special run of New Vaqueros in .44 Spl, I purchased a set of stainless steel from Long Hunter. Now, I've always wanted to shoot .44-40 and planned to have custom cylinders made by Gary Reeder, but I decided to check with the Ruger service centre here in Canada to see if I could get another set of .44 Spl cylinders from them. I could so I bought a pair which they fit to my guns. After I got them guns with their new cylinders back, I sent them to a gunsmith I know who reamed them out for .44-40. Now I can shoot either caliber but for the past 3 years have exclusively shot .44-40. So when Ruger says the New Vaqueros can't be chambered for .44-40, they aren't correct.

I'm not sure which brand of .44-40 brass has the maximum size rim, but every brand of .44-40 brass I use fits; I use Winchester and Starline most. Every part of my guns was made by Ruger, the only "customization" was the reaming out of a New Vaquero .44 Spl cylinder to .44-40. There isn't a lot of space between the cartridge rims, but they don't touch; everything loads smoothly.
Again, no brand has the maximum size rim by design. It is a matter of tolerance stacking and tool wear. I have several .44-40 guns and ammo from one won't necessarily work in another depending on the bullet OD and case brand used. I have standardized on the original bullet size of .427. This fits all of my current guns. I have .44-40s that vary from .423 to .432. In the old days SAAMI did not exist so the dimensions for the chambers and cases were/are not uniform. I have had the worse luck with Remington and CBC. Both of those frequently have rims that won't fit in some of my guns or stick in the shell plates on my reloading presses. So, I now only use Winchester or Starline brass. They have the thinnest case necks and seem relatively consistent for rim size. As an example, suppose the reamer your smith used was towards the maximum. That would allow the cases to move outward from the centerline and give the rims a tiny bit more space. A tighter chamber with wider rims and they would be a no go.
The reamer used by my gunsmith was a new one from Mason, one for which I paid half. So maybe the chambers were more toward the maximum. All the bullets I load are .429 RNFP, usually as I previously mentioned, in Winchester or Starline brass. Use these rounds in my Rugers as well as my Marlin Cowboy Limited and new Winchester from Miroku. Love the .44-40.
SAA help needed!
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Cheyenne Culpepper 32827's topic in SASS Wire1. You need to slowly cock the hammer and see when the bolt comes up. It should pop up at the lead-in notch. If it is early or late or mushy you need to describe the problem better. 2. Take a LITTLE material off the lower finger on the hand/pawl. It only takes a stroke or two with a sharp file to make the difference.

About Clive Grey
Clive was born in Kaufbeuren, Germany, and spent the first two years of his life in an orphanage. At the age of 2 1/2, he was adopted and brought to Southern California where he spent the rest of his childhood. At the age of 18, Clive moved to Santa Barbara where he became a handyman and was fortunate enough to learn the building trades from master craftsmen in the area.
When time would permit, he would be known to be building furniture from wine barrels as well as wooden flower pot holders and mirrors. After 10 years of learning the trades, he became a general contractor focusing primarily on kitchen and bath remodels. In the 90's Clive started building his own cabinets and fireplace mantles as well as book shelves.
In the Early part of the new millennium, Clive even had the privilege of hosting and co-writing a woodworking show on PBS that aired throughout the US and parts of Canada. This started the ball rolling for quite a few commissions to build unique art tables. While still doing remodels he began to start doing his own designs and plans. At the request of many clients he moved into designing music boxes and wall art. Today he is focusing on his passion of Woodworking and art and is always ready to start a new project for you!

New York City is crisscrossed with rivers and bounded by the sea, facts easily forgotten when fighting the swift human currents of the city streets. But the owners of a marina that opened on Sunday off the banks of Brooklyn Heights in Brooklyn Bridge Park are aiming to remind New Yorkers of the water that plies this place, and how to enjoy it.
"You're on an island, and nobody thinks about the water except as something you need to get across, or over, or avoid somehow," said Estelle Lau, the deputy chief executive officer of the marina at Pier 5, where Joralemon Street dead ends at the East River.
The marina, called ONE°15 Brooklyn — a reference to the coordinates of a marina over 9,500 miles away, in Singapore, where the majority partner of the $27 million project is based — will be a private dock with 100 slips for skiffs, yachts and the occasional hulking lightship. It will also devote a portion of its proceeds to community groups that will use the marina for education programs.
While there are marinas elsewhere in the city, including in Brooklyn and Queens and along the West Side of Manhattan, the marina's owners felt this one would be a new asset.
The idea for the marina did not come to Tim O'Brien, the general manager and a partner in the project, as much as it never left him. Mr. O'Brien, 37, grew up summering in Cape Cod in Massachusetts, teaching sailing at a marina where dues were little more than $10. When he moved to New York over a decade ago, he managed a marina in Lower Manhattan, until he took a "grown-up" job, he said, in private wealth management. But he spent his free time trying to figure out how to replicate the marina of his youth in New York.
"You go on a boat, and immediately step into a different universe," he said. "You still have that same feeling of being transported."
In 2013, when Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation was seeking proposals for what to do with the site at Pier 5, Mr. O'Brien saw an opportunity to realize his dream. Soon afterward he quit his job to work on the marina full time. Last week, as the first ship, a yacht named Topaz, docked in Brooklyn Bridge Park, he began to cry, he said. "This is the project of a lifetime," he said.
On Sunday, shiny white sailboats belonging to the marina's sail club were nestled in slips. The site includes a high-tech buffer system manufactured in Finland that was designed to withstand brutal waves from hurricanes and wakes from ferries that chop up the East River.
A community dock, where kayak lessons and other services will be offered to the public, is yet to be completed. The programs will be funded by the marina, which will tithe 2 percent of its berthing revenue — boat-parking, in landlubber speak — to a nonprofit created in conjunction with the marina.
"I want to make sure that people know that this is not just another thing that's an amenity for the rich," Mr. O'Brien said.
But slip rentals are far from the low-priced marina of Mr. O'Brien's youth. Boat slips start at about $325 per foot and go up to $972 a foot for vessels over 150 feet. Sail club memberships range from $1,000 a season to about $3,000.
During its first weekend the marina was largely empty, but ships were already calling. The cherry red Nantucket Lightship bobbed in the East River. The decommissioned floating lighthouse, owned by Kristen and William B. Golden, usually makes berth in Newport, R.I., but they sailed it to New York and took it Brooklyn to show it off.
"This marina is a game changer for New York City," Mr. Golden, 67, a former lobsterman and Massachusetts state senator, said.

While I used some of the beet greens in my Thanksgiving centerpiece, I roasted two bunches of beets for my ensalada de remolacha. One thing I love about Encarnacion Pinedo's cookbook: very few measurements and bare bones descriptions of how to make the dishes.
I sliced off the greens and tips, washed the beets, dried them, sprinkled them with smoked sea salt, drizzled them in olive oil, and roasted them - covered with foil - in a 350 degree oven till you can pierce them with a fork. The cooking time depends on how big the beets are. These took about 75 minutes.
Once the beets cooled, I peeled them, sliced them into eighths and seasoned them, according to Encarnacion's instructions: sprinkle with salt, pepper, and cumin. Drizzle with olive oil some vinegar. She suggested sliced raw onions; I skipped those.

Two types of disability insurance are available as a work benefit. Short-term disability provides income when an employee becomes temporarily disabled due to accident or illness. There is a waiting period before the insurance pays benefits. The benefits will pay out for 26 weeks. After a period of 26 weeks, short-term disability ceases. These benefits replace 50-67 percent of an employee's income.
Long-term disability insurance is similar to short-term insurance, except it covers employees who become disabled and are unable to work for six months or longer. The benefits, which are about 50-60 percent of the employee's income, can continue to retirement age. Permanent disability is not a requirement, but the employee should have been a full-time employee for at least a year.
The Social Security Administration also provides benefits for people who meet their requirements. However, benefits are reduced by the amount the person receives from workers' compensation. Workplace benefits of long- or short-term disability insurance do no reduce the benefits.

This is how we're taught to count as children: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Yet our innate grasp of quantities isn't linear. We're more likely to experience the world in ratios, like 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. It's easier for us to see the difference between one and two marbles than 15 and 16 of them.
In this way, we're a lot like certain types of bats who have shaped the evolution of the plants they pollinate by making proportional judgments about what they're willing to eat. That's the finding of a study published in Science on Thursday. The study set out to answer an old evolutionary riddle: How do plants pollinated by bats get away with offering nectar in much lower sugar concentrations than the bats prefer? It turns out the plants are just giving the bats what they appear to want.
Given a choice through experiments, bats choose syrupy nectars, with 60 percent sugar — but the plants they pollinate in the wild produce watery nectars with 20 percent sugar.
"Maybe it's the plants enforcing a dilute nectar that they prefer on the animals — or maybe it's the bats exerting selection pressure," said York Winter, a professor of cognitive neurobiology at Humboldt University, and one of the study's authors.
To figure out which scenario was happening, his team ran evolution simulations in the field, on the computer and in the lab, assuming that the bats were choosing certain plants to pollinate over others.
Combining these simulations, the researchers found an explanation for how nectar-feeding bats end up preferring nectars that are less sweet — particularly when there's fierce competition for a limited amount of nectar. The crux of that explanation? The same kind of nonlinear, proportional decision making that people use in many everyday judgments.
This pattern is encapsulated by the Weber-Fechner law, which says that animals — including people — commonly perceive physical stimuli in relative increments rather than absolutes.
Given one type of input, the Weber-Fechner law is relatively straightforward. But when you're forced to deal with multiple considerations, like trying to simultaneously judge prices and sizes of cereal boxes at the grocery store, the effect becomes more complicated. Which factor will stand out more, and therefore carry more weight in your decision making?
Nectar-feeding bats also consider two things at the same time: the volume of available nectar, and its sugar concentration. They prefer high levels of both, but in the wild, nectar sugar concentrations are generally midrange, while volumes per bat are low, especially when many thirsty bats are competing for limited supplies.
The Weber-Fechner law dictates that the bats perceive increases in volume more acutely than they do increases in sugar concentration. In other words, they are more sensitive to changes in quantity than in quality.
"Gaining just a little bit more nectar causes a much stronger change in sensation — so they go to flowers where they get a little bit more nectar," Dr. Winter said.
Over many iterations, the researchers' simulations confirmed, the bats help pollinate plants that produce more nectar, even if that nectar is more watery and less sugary.
Dr. Winter is intrigued by the possibility of applying these findings to human behavior. How do people make decisions when they have to take into account multiple factors?
"Multiple dimensions can interact and cause nonrational decisions, where you are given two options and you actually take the lesser one," Dr. Winter said.
Consider that a proportional sense of quantities is what sometimes leads people to expend more effort saving $5 on a $10 purchase than $10 on a $100 purchase.
So, the next time you find yourself defaulting to rough estimates, you may want to stop and disentangle your perceptual biases. Take this lesson from nectar-feeding bats: It's all relative, until the only nectar that's left for you to drink is watery.

Sixteen. That's when their worlds changed. That was when Danny & Kaelah fell in love and never recovered, and they're better for it. Some might think their giddy excitement for each other would have faded at this point, but anyone who knows these two or has even seen them together would know that's not possible. All of the butterflies are still there, and beautifully flutter in each look and touch.
I had said before that their wedding was an adventure. Really, what I should have said was getting married outside in the Northwest can be like playing Russian Roulette. There's no judgement in that statement, I did it, and yes my bridesmaid's froze to death on the day the Farmer's Almanac had given me the thumbs up.
The clouds had been threatening to pour all day, but the sun had broke through just in time for the ceremony, turning the sky into incredible shades of dark blue. The guests' lively chatter filled the air as the final preperations for the cermony were completed.
Tears flowed freely as Danny & Kaelah exchanged their vows. It was during the exchange of rings that the rain decided to join in the festivities and it flowed freely too. It rained on Danny & Kaelah's parade, but you wouldn't have known it with all of the joy on their faces.
Danny & Kaelah, every time I think of you I smile. Thank you for the privilege of being part of such a special day.

DDoS Protection Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, Growth, and Forecast 2017 - 2025
Global DDoS protection Market: Snapshot
Distributed denial-of-service protection solutions help safeguard the endpoints from advanced and sophisticated DDoS attacks. For the last few years, there has been a rise in the demand for DDoS protection solutions and services from small and medium enterprises across industry verticals worldwide on account of the growing trend of bring your own device as well as increasing concentration of the Internet of Things technology. Other factors which are helping this market to grow is the rising use of electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, tablets and computer which in turn have also fuelled the number of online transactions and payment transactions. All these factors have subsequently increased the chances of distributed denial-of-service threats which in turn have created a heightened need for DDoS protection solutions.
One of the key trends which is anticipated to gain traction in the years to come is the growing incidences of application layer attacks. This trend is expected to bode well for the growth of the DDoS protection market in the next few years as application layer attacks causes severe damage including operational damages, account suspension among others. As application layer attacks consumes less bandwidth, the incidences of these attacks are increasing significantly.
As the incidences of sophisticated attacks are increasing due to an increase in the connectivity through computing and mobile devices, vendors in the global distributed denial-of-service protection market are investing extensively in order to develop a safety net for protection against these attacks. The availability of tools for DDoS attacks is another factor behind the rise in the number of attacks and subsequently in the demand for DDoS protection solutions.
Global DDoS Protection Market: Overview
The global market for DDoS protection is likely to witness a significant growth throughout the forecast period. The proliferation of technology and the rising adoption of Internet of Things across diverse industrial sectors are some of the important aspects that are anticipated to fuel the growth of the global DDoS protection market in the next few years.

Global DDoS Protection Market: Key Trends
The rising instances of several sophisticated DDoS attacks are expected to boost the demand for DDoS protection solutions in the next few years. In addition, the easy availability of attack tools, especially for extortion activities and hire services is estimated to fuel the growth of the overall market throughout the forecast period.
On the other hand, the rising operational costs and the availability of pirated and free DDoS protection solutions are anticipated to restrict the growth of the global DDoS protection market in the next few years. Nonetheless, the emergence of cost-effective hybrid and cloud-based solutions is expected to generate promising growth opportunities across the forecast period.
Global DDoS Protection Market: Market Potential
The leading players in the global DDoS protection market are anticipated to face several challenges due to the constantly changing DDoS attack trends and the large-scale volumetric attacks. Moreover, the lack of expertise in technical cyber security and the lack of awareness among stakeholders are expected to hamper the growth of the market in the near future. However, the growing demand for next generation and integrated security solutions and the introduction of customized DDoS mitigations solutions are likely to encourage the growth of the global DDoS protection market in the forecast period.
Global DDoS Protection Market: Regional Outlook
The global market for DDoS protection has been divided on the basis of regional segmentation in order to offer a clear understanding of the market. As per the research study, North America is likely to register a progressive growth in the forecast period. This segment is projected to be followed by Europe and remain in the leading position in the next few years in terms of revenue generation. The robust growth of the North America DDoS protection market can be attributed to the presence of a large number of DDoS protection players and service providers. In addition, the increasing adoption trends for innovative and new technologies in the developed nations, such as Canada and the U.S. is estimated to accelerate the growth of the market in the near future.
On the flip side, the Asia Pacific market for DDoS protection is considered to register a progressive growth throughout the forecast period. The increasing rate of adoption of DDoS services and solutions across a large number of large, medium, and small-sized enterprises is projected to encourage the growth of the Asia Pacific market throughout the forecast period.
Global DDoS Protection Market: Competitive Analysis
Some of the prominent players operating in the DDoS protection market across the globe are Nexusguard Ltd., Imperva, F5 Networks, Inc., Neustar, Inc., Arbor Networks, Inc., Corero Network Security, Inc., Cloudflare, Inc., Radware Ltd., Akamai Technologies, Inc., and Dosarrest Internet Security Ltd. A significant rise in the number of players is estimated to strengthen the competitive landscape of the market in the coming years.

In the early 1960's well-known players Alan Schwartz and Errol Gerson emerged. In 1961 the School 1st Team won the second league and was promoted Team Blazers were awarded for the first time.
In 1963 two other well-known players Errol Benjamin and Mel Baleson joined the first team under Schwartz's captaincy and the latter was the first to receive tennis colours in an excellent year in which we played 17 and only lost 3 matches and had 3 teams.
The amazing Mr Hugh Wilson was the Master-in Charge of tennis. By the mid 60's Baleson had emerged as our top player and was chosen for Transvaal Schools.
In 1967 the School's new courts were built and this was a great stimulus to tennis under the captaincy of David Moss and in 1968 under Michael Meyers. Meyer's captaincy had another great year early. Tennis grew rapidly and by the early 90's the School had 8 teams.
In the early 90's Ms Mariette Buys, the present teacher in charge was guiding tennis and Michael Polasik was chosen in 1997 for the SA Schools Team. That year 5 players were chosen for the Southern Gauteng squad.
We continued to play in local leagues and have occasional tours to Natal. As had occurred for many years there was a house competition.
In 2001 we played in Pretoria Boys High Centenary Festival and our young squad had an excellent Centenary year.
Currently the 1st Team is playing in League 1A and with further commitment and determination are hoping to move into the Premier League during 2012 season.
2012 Winter League:
A winter league squad has been chosen and due to Steven Cant being involved in 1st team hockey, a new captain and vice captain have been chosen. The picture attached shows Sizwe Sishi (Captain) and Mohammad Jassat (Vice Captain).

Multi-year transects, beginning in 1995, of the Parker River Plum Island Sound Estuary conducted at dawn and dusk, containing dissolved oxygen, conductivity, temperature, percent saturation, pH, DIC and pCO2 measurements. Differences between dawn and dusk measurements can be used to determine the water metabolism and corresponding estimates of gross primary production, total system respiration and net ecosystem production.
Transects were conducted in a motorboat with a sample inlet device located beneath the hull that, when the boat was moving, would force water into an enclosed chamber and past the sampling probe. Dissolved oxygen, percent saturation, conductivity, temperature and pH were measured in the chamber with a Hydrolab or YSI sonde (see ANALYTICAL METHODS). On dates when DIC and pCO2 were measured, samples were collected in the outlet line into glass bottles, and preserved with HgCl2. As we did not need to stop at each station to obtain a sample, transects were completed quickly and represent a close to instantaneous dissolved oxygen transect of the estuary.
Calculated salinity is based upon Hydrolab_Series_4a_Manual, Section 4. Conductivity sensor, page 86 with the following formula:
Salinity = c1*SpCond^4 + c2*SpCond^3 + c3*SpCond^2 + c4*SpCond + c5 where c1 = 5.9950 x 10-8, c2 = -2.3120 x 10-5, c3 =3.4346 x 10-3, c4 = 5.3532 x 10-1, c5 = -1.5494 x 10-2.

After a raft of family friendly employment legislation the idea of pet-friendly policies may be the last concept employers would welcome. But Nestle (in Gatwick) has started "recruiting" dogs for their offices. There is an application process, assessment process, a probation period and an "on-boarding" process. WHY?
Research in the USA and in the UK suggests that allowing owners to bring their dogs to work has the following benefits:
- Improved retention, especially of millennials (18 – 35 year olds)
- Higher morale – 82% of staff would feel a greater loyalty to their company if they were allowed to bring their pet to work
- Lower stress levels – the research reports that dog owners have lower levels of anxiety and the presence of dogs at work can defuse anger
- Healthy employees – encouraging physical activity, walking to work, exercising at lunchtime.
Individuals benefit too. No rushing home at lunchtime to let the dog out, or feeling guilty if working into the evening. Furthermore if you work alone then it is company to have a dog quietly resting in the corner.
We have one or two clients who allow dogs at work and we have ourselves in the past. If you give it a try then please let us know how you get on.

Both The Man Who Wasn't There (2001) and A Serious Man (2009) utilize Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle as an organizing metaphor. Knowledge, according to this quantum mechanical interpretation, is fundamentally imprecise: the more we know about one property, the less we can know about another. This notion is in keeping with the Coen brothers' longstanding fascination with the limits of knowledge and the fundamental difficulties of communication. In practically every Coen film, characters misunderstand the motivations of the other characters. This misappraisal can stem from either the gap between appearance and reality—exemplified, for instance, by "The Big" Lebowski in that film, whose façade of wealth and power is revealed by film's end to be an utter sham—or the fallible nature of language itself: Larry Gopnik's comic misunderstanding of Clive Park's phrase "Mere surmise, sir" in A Serious Man, itself an expression of the unknowable nature of human actions.
In The Man Who Wasn't There (2001), attorney Freddy Riedenschneider invokes Heisenberg in a misguided attempt to gain acquittal for Ed Crane. In voiceover, Ed relates: "He told them to look not at the facts but at the meaning of the facts, and then he said that the facts had no meaning." Freddy's grand speech is interrupted by Ed's brother-in-law Frank, who attacks Ed and prompts the declaration of a mistrial. The mistrial, in fact, is inherent to the proceedings: Ed is charged with murdering Creighton Tolliver, who was actually beaten to death by Big Dave Brewster. When Ed returns to consciousness after the car accident and is informed that he's being charged with murder, he naturally assumed his passenger, Birdy, has been killed. This Gordian Knot of misunderstanding continues throughout the film, lacking any solution that might be provided by Ed's voiceover narration.
The film's end reveals that Ed has been writing his memoirs for a pulp magazine and—being paid by the word—very well might have "embellished" his story. Commerce dictates revelation here. The truth—and the very notion of The Truth as an objective entity—is up for sale. Existence lacks meaning and language is a game played for profit: "Writing has helped me sort it all out. They're paying me five cents a word." The film's last lines hint at the possibility of transcendence or at least the desire for such: "I don't know what waits for me, beyond the earth and sky. But I'm not afraid to go. Maybe the things I don't understand will be clearer there, like when a fog blows away…Maybe Doris will be there…And maybe there I can tell her all the things they don't have words for here…"
In A Serious Man (2009), Larry Gopnik instructs his college Physics class in the mathematics behind Heisenberg's principle. The scene echoes an earlier one in which Larry instructed his class on the paradox of Schrödinger's cat. The scenes start similarly, but the later scene soon becomes incongruous: A cut reveals a massive chalkboard, dwarfing Larry's figure, crammed with equations. Larry says, "The Uncertainty Principle. It proves that we can't ever really know…what's going on. So it shouldn't bother you. Not being able to figure anything out." Now we see Sy Ableman sitting in the audience. At this point in the narrative, Sy is dead. Only now is the viewer cued that this scene is a dream sequence, the first of three. Sy responds, "I'll concede that it's subtle, it's clever, but at the end of the day, is it convincing?" Larry replies: "Well, yes it's convincing. It's a proof. It's mathematics." Sy: "Excuse me, Larry. Mathematics is…the art of the possible." Larry: "I don't think so. The art of the possible…that's…I can't remember…something else…" In point of fact, the art of the possible is politics, at least according to Otto von Bismarck.
Larry expresses a withering confidence in mathematical certainty, in proof, even while espousing Heisenberg. Uncertainty can be proved to the extent that it can be incorporated into a system. Kurt Gödel's theorems state that 1) no consistent system can prove all facts and 2) one fact that cannot be proven about the system is that it is in fact consistent. In short, any system aspiring to consistency must include the fact of its own incompleteness. On a theological level, these notions find their embodiment in the story of Job, which parallels Larry's experiences. From out of the whirlwind (the tornado at the film's conclusion…?), God tells Job: "Shall a faultfinder contend with the Almighty?" (40:2) and "Will you condemn me that you may be justified?" (40:8)
In this view, the divine order is utterly incommensurate with human codes of ethics or morality and God owes nobody any answers, a view supported in the film by Rabbi Nachtner. Suffering is no more punishment than prosperity is a reward: the text makes this quite clear. Closer to the truth of this word is the view that suffering forms and purifies us. But even this notion only goes so far. The transcendent, in the scripture's tautological assertion, transcends. "Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you," a quote from the 11th century French Talmudic scholar Rashi, opens the film. "Accept the mystery," says Mr. Park.

The online Degree Audit is the official system used by the undergraduate programs of the JHU Krieger School of Arts & Sciences to track degree completion. It can be accessed through SIS. The information below is meant to serve as a navigation guide for Cognitive Science Majors. Majors should take note that while the department has jurisdiction over major degree requirements, there are certain policies set forth by the Office of Academic Advising and the Office of the Registrar regarding transfer credit, study abroad credit, foreign language credit, etc. that supersede departmental oversight.
Accessing Degree Audit
Log into SIS. Under the Registration tab, select "Degree Audit," choose a goal, and select "Create Audit." Undeclared majors cannot automatically run a degree audit. Instead, create an audit as an undeclared major by selecting "Add Goals." Specific instructions can be found on this website.
Selecting Two Focal Areas
The required courses for Cognitive Science Majors are divided into five general areas as described below. The major is structured so as to ensure some exposure to each of the five areas. In addition, it provides in-depth training in two of the areas, deemed focal areas, chosen by the student. Majors thus acquire a broad perspective which will enable them to situate particular research disciplines within the overall study of the mind/brain. The three areas not selected as focal areas are loosely referred to as non-focal areas for advising purposes. For more on focal areas, visit our Cognitive Science Major & Focal Areas webpage. To select your two Focal Areas in the Degree Audit, complete the following:
- Choose A Pathway
- Under the "Two Focal Areas" header click on "Select Alternate Paths" link.
- In the popup window, select two of the five focal areas.
- Save Path (if you are committed to these two focal areas, check "Locked" before saving).*
- Rerun the Audit: The audit should re-distribute courses accordingly.
TIP: Saved paths are user-specific, meaning only you can see the chance. Your adviser(s) will not know which Focal Areas you chose. If you 'Lock' your path, your two chosen Focal Areas will be visible to other users who access your audit.
Moving Courses
Some courses may fit more than one Focal Area, but you may not use it to satisfy more than one course requirement. However, it is possible to move courses around to other focal areas to best satisfy your degree requirements.
- Click the Focal Area header. This must be the destination Focal Area to which you want to move a course.
- In the popup window, choose the "Move Course" tab.
- In the drop down list of applicable courses, chose the desired course to move.
- Select the "Move Course" button.
Foreign Languages
Cognitive Science Majors who entered Fall 2017 and prior
There are two options: complete one foreign language through the second semester of the second-year level OR complete two foreign languages through the second semester of the first-year level. The resultant total is four language courses for either option.
- If the audit does not reflect the correct option click the "Select Alternate Pathway" link under the Foreign Language header and choose the correct option.
- If the audit does not reflect the correct language, click the "Select Alternate Pathway" link under the "Two Beginner/Intermediate Modern Languages" header and select the correct language(s).
In both cases, if you are committed to the particular pathway or language, choose 'Locked' before saving the pathway. This way, your adviser(s) will be able to see the pathways you have chosen and your language courses will correctly populate the audit when they review your progress.
Cognitive Science Majors who entered Fall 2018 and after
There is no language requirement for these Cognitive Science majors, however, students with Linguistics as one of their focal areas, one intermediate or advanced foreign language course may be used to partially satisfy the upper-level course requirement for that focal area and/or one other intermediate or advanced foreign language course may be used to partially satisfy the nine credits of Additional Upper-Level Cognitive Science Courses. Here is how this works in your Degree Audit:
- Linguistics Focal Area: Applicable language courses should automatically populate your focal area.
- Additional Cognitive Science Courses: This is not populated automatically. You must submit a request to the Cognitive Science Director of Undergraduate Studies. If approved, the DUS will access your audit and move the language course to the Additional Cognitive Science Courses section.
Placing out of Language Courses
Students may place out of one or more language course(s) in a few different ways. Each language has an assigned Language Director on campus who must approve language placement exams, waivers, transfer credit, study abroad credit, etc. If successful, the Language Director will submit a transcript notation to the Office of the Registrar and a language 'placeholder' course should appear on the your transcript as a waiver or a course equivalency.
In the Degree Audit, the course placeholder should automatically populate the correct language section (except in the case outlined in #2 in the section above regarding Linguistics Focal Area students). If it does not, contact the Director of Undergraduate Studies to make an inquiry about the eligibility of the course. If approved, the DUS will move the course the appropriate major requirement.
The links below provide information on each topic. Questions about these policies and procedures may be directed to the Office of Academic Advising.
- Advanced Placement Exam: Students who score high enough on a language AP exam, could receive course credit for one or more language courses. The above link lists AP exam score-to-credit equivalencies.
- Placement Exam: Students who would like to 'test out' of one or more a language course(s), must take a Placement Exam. Depending on the language, this may be administered online or in person. Language Directors will use the exam to determine into which language course a student should be placed. Students may need to take additional entry or intermediate level language courses if they do not 'place out' of the minimally required language course(s) for the Cognitive Science Major.
- Language Waiver: Students who are relatively fluent in another language besides English, may qualify for a waiver. In some cases, the Language Director will use a Placement Exam to assess this. In other cases, a Language Director may use other methods to evaluate proficiency. It is the Language Director's responsibility to determine the language-level waiver and inform the Office of the Registrar to add the notation to the student's transcript
- Transfer Credit: Students might satisfy all or part of the language requirement with transfer credit. Transfer credits do not auto-populate in the Degree Audit. The student must first take proper steps to add the transfer credit to their transcript, then ask the current director of undergraduate studies if the credit will be accepted to satisfy one or more language requirements.

'Finding coaching was like starting life all over again' not because my life needed starting again, but because I got the chance to look at it with new eyes.
The business person I had evolved into had served me well to this point in my 24/7 exciting world and here's a brief work history. However, a few comments from those closest taught me that some of my behaviour, since starting on my coaching career journey, had changed for the better. The thing I learnt from them and from me was, without realising it; I had become 'softer'. By learning to understand others I learnt so much about myself.
Following this coaching career path wasn't all flowers and beautiful awakenings; at times it was real personal challenge. Had I made a big mistake here? Was I going to have to lose that confident person in order to follow my dreams? I had always believed I needed to be strong and have all the answers in order to feel significance but, with hindsight, that wasn't the case, just by facing inward for a little while, I got the chance to relax and look again.
Looking inward was the catalyst, the turning point. Whilst focusing on finding contentment with who 'me' really was I was also becoming content to just 'be'. Being happy with who I am now and as an evolving story, has catapulted me into a world of constantly seeking new learning, new energy, an absolute passion for my personal growth and enabling others to find theirs. Both in business and personally, I know how 'free' it feels to just be me and allow others their space. It took me from back then; spending all my days 'seeking' tomorrows full of success and approval, to now; 'living' today with focus on what's important for me but with an exciting plan for tomorrow and beyond. And here's the thing, it's always a work in progress because even when we think we've cracked it, as new discoveries come into play, just like our phones; we need an update from time to time to keep moving forward.
Everyone's outcome is beautifully different. I am privileged and love being a part of that and that is where I found my new significance; to serve others.
So, what's my niche? I have to apologise here because I can't quite seem to find the appropriate box in order to categorise myself specifically but I guess that's my whole point, that we're all unique, we are all special in our own way. My focus is on keeping it simple and on who you intrinsically are. I help you find the real you and with that comes genuine, long lasting, true confidence and peace of mind.'
I think I am best defined as: A confidence coach. I help people find out who they really are and they, in turn, unearth (rediscover) their confidence. I do that having had some great training, experience and by just being me, positive and passionate.
If this resonates with you, then I can't wait to hear from you, whenever that time maybe.
So Here I Am With A Life Coaching Practice
No bells and whistles just confidentiality, great patience, non-judgemental understanding, positivity and a genuine passion to help.
If I sound like a person you would like to spend some time with in order for you to achieve your personal goals, then take the first step to your new life and give me a call…..07884 970 502. I can't wait to hear from you and let's see what we find…..

Trajectory-following methods for large-scale degenerate convex quadratic programming
Nicholas I. M. Gould, Dominique Orban, Daniel P. Robinson
We consider a class of infeasible, path-following methods for convex quadratric programming. Our methods are designed to be effective for solving both nondegerate and degenerate problems, where degeneracy is understood to mean the failure of strict complementarity at a solution. Global convergence and a polynomial bound on the number of iterations required is given. An implementation, CQP, is available as part of GALAHAD. We illustrate the advantages of our approach on the CUTEr and Maros–Meszaros test sets.

Five books to look forward to in July 2017
The current trend in Indian publishing space, as also globally, shows a phenomenal rise of nonfiction while the number of fiction titles have dipped significantly over the past couple of years.
The month of July, however, will come as a boon to fiction readers as several prominent novels are slated to hit the stores.
Arundhati Roy's The Ministry of Utmost Happiness and Amish Tripathi's Sita - Warrior of Mithila dominated the literary space in June, which also saw the release of two prominent autobiographies: Ruskin Bond's Lone Fox Dancing and former RBI Governor Y.V. Reddy's Advice and Dissent. While Roy's novel initially attracted much attention from readers and critics alike, ultimately it was again nonfiction and memoirs that occurred more in terms of number and sales.
The growing interest of readers in knowing about the lives of celebrities and other leading personalities, coupled with exorbitant marketing and promotion of such books, have toppled the rightful place that fiction once commanded. Thus, a sort of 'hit-and-run' nonfiction books that create hype momentarily and do well commercially rule the roost.
But these books are also forgotten equally fast. Consider Karan Johar's An Unsuitable Boy and Amitav Ghosh's 1988 novel The Shadow Lines for instance. While Johar's memoir, which released only a few months ago seems to have gone out of sight and mind of most readers, Ghosh's novel, even after three decades, seems like an oasis of bliss and aesthetic reading.
Here are the five books that we can't wait to read in July:
The Lovers by Amitava Kumar (Aleph)
This novel is about a man in search of a love story. Our narrator Kailash is a new immigrant, eager to shine and in his account of his years at a university in New York, he takes us through the bittersweet arc of youth and love. Manifest in the narrator's first years and first loves is the wild enthusiasm of youth, its idealism, chaotic desires and confusions.
Funny, meditative, and shot through with waves of longing, the book explores feelings of discomfort about cultural misunderstandings and the lack of clarity between men and women.
Without Prejudice: Epic Tale of a Mumbai Bar Dancer by Devasis (Niyogi Books)
A novel on the life sketch of a fictional Mumbai Bar Dancer, the book delves deep into the roots of their evolution as dancers and attempts to answer how the sudden decision of closure of the Dance Bars ran the danger and risk of depriving a section of the populace of a dignified (albeit not being seen so by some sections of society) way of earning their living. The damage caused by certain archaic laws to certain sections of the Indian populace and how the government, administration and general public are completely unaware of the injustice meted to women from these communities is also highlighted in the book.
A state of Freedom by Neel Mukherjee
Neel Mukherjee, the author of two previous novels, A Life Apart (2010), which won the Writers' Guild of Great Britain Award for best novel, and The Lives of Others (2014), which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize, returns this July with his third novel.
In A State of Freedom by Mukherjee, five characters find out the meanings of dislocation, and the desire for more. Moving between the reality of this world and the shadow of another, this novel of multiple narratives -- formally daring, fierce but full of pity -- delivers a devastating and haunting exploration of the unquenchable human urge to strive for a different life.
Navigating India by Bharat Joshi (Rupa)
This is a non-preachy, non-prescriptive and unbiased account of the possibilities that define India amidst magnificent paradoxes. It provides an experiential compass through first-hand accounts and insights from some of India's most respected names in business, public governance, diplomacy and intelligentsia.
It lucidly explains the frequent and vital intersections between the government and business, culture and modernity, demographics and democracy -- all of which are vital to understanding India.
To Kill the President by Sam Bourne (HarperCollins)
The United States has elected a volatile demagogue as president, backed by his ruthless chief strategist, Crawford 'Mac' McNamara. When a war of words with the North Korean regime spirals out of control and the President comes perilously close to launching a nuclear attack, it's clear someone has to act, or the world will be reduced to ashes.
Maggie Costello, a seasoned Washington operator and stubbornly principled person, discovers an inside plot to kill the President -- and faces the ultimate moral dilemma. Should she save the President and leave the free world at the mercy of an increasingly crazed would-be tyrant -- or commit treason against her Commander in Chief and risk plunging the country into a civil war? This blockbuster thriller will keep you hooked to its pages.


text: In 1960, Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, took over the operation of DomiNick's, an existing location of a small pizza restaurant chain that had been owned by Dominick DiVarti, at 507 Cross Street (now 301 West Cross Street) in Ypsilanti, Michigan, near Eastern Michigan University. The deal was secured by a $500 down payment, and the brothers borrowed $900 to pay for the store. The brothers planned to split the work hours evenly, but James did not want to quit his job as a full-time postman to keep up with the demands of the new business. Within eight months, James traded his half of the business to Tom for the Volkswagen Beetle they used for pizza deliveries.

You'll need to have a tax identification number in Belgium if you're planning on living and working in the little but mighty European country. Discover more about the Belgian tax numbers for business and the related procedures in this guide.
The Tax Identification Number (TIN) in Belgium is also known as the National Register Number or National Number (NN). National Register Numbers in Belgium are issued to all residents including temporary residents, and you will need one in order to work, pay tax or register for social security in Belgium.
This guide to Belgian tax identification numbers will cover the following areas:
- What is a Belgian tax number?
- Who needs a Belgian tax number?
- How to apply for a Belgian tax number
- Requirements for a Belgian tax number
- Using your Belgian tax number
There is also a further information section at the end of the guide with useful websites and web pages with more information on tax numbers in Belgium.
Belgian tax numbers – the Belgian National Register Number (NN)
The Belgian NN is a multi-purpose identification number which acts as a Belgian tax identification number, a national register number and a social security number. It is used for tax administration, social security and public records in Belgium. The NN is issued by the Belgian government through the Federal Public Service department.
The Belgian National Register Number is found on Belgian ID cards, social security cards and passports. It is a unique 11-digit number consisting of the holder's date of birth (first 6 digits) then three digits to differentiate people born on the same day (odd numbers 001-997 for men, 002-998 for women) and a final two digits calculated on the previous nine digits. Businesses also get a Belgian NN. This is a 10-digit number used primarily for tax purposes as well as public records.
Who needs a Belgian National Register Number?
As the Belgian NN is a general registration number, it is a requirement for everyone living in Belgium, both nationals and non-nationals. Belgian citizens will have the number on their passport or Belgian ID card, permanent and temporary residents will have it on their residence cards or residence documents. You will also need a Belgian National Register Number if you visit Belgium short-term and take up employment. This will be a temporary or provisional NN.
Businesses registered in Belgium will also need a Belgian National Register Number which serves as a business tax number in Belgium. This will be issued with the company documents when the business registers with the Belgian authorities.
The Belgian National Register Number is automatically issued. Every Belgian national aged 12 or over receives it on their Belgian ID card and non-nationals resident in Belgium will receive it with their residence permits. See our guide to Belgian citizenship and permanent residence to see who qualifies as a Belgian citizen or permanent resident.
How to apply for a Belgian National Register Number
As the Belgian National Register Number is automatically issued as part of other documents (national ID card, Belgian passport, social security card, residence permits), it is not something that you have to apply for separately in most cases. You can see our separate guides for information on how to apply for Belgian citizenship and permanent residence, Belgian passports, social security in Belgium and registering as a temporary resident in Belgium. You can also check out our guides to starting a business in Belgium and paying taxes in Belgium for information on company registration and how to pay taxes in Belgium.
If you haven't received a Belgian National Register Number or an identity document containing a Belgian NN, or if you want to make an enquiry about the how to get a Belgian tax number, the best place to contact is your local municipality (commune/gemeente) which is responsible for registering foreign residents and issuing identity cards and residence permits. This is done at the local town hall. Information on local municipalities and where to find your local town hall is available here.
As your Belgian National Register Number is provided as part of various other documents, there is no separate fee that needs to be paid to obtain the NN.
Requirements for a Belgian National Register Number
The documents required for an NN application will depend on what you are applying for. Exact requirements for a Belgian National Register Number will usually depend on the local municipality you are making your application through. If you are applying for a Belgian residency permit or work permit, you will typically need to provide valid ID, a work permit or proof of reason for staying in Belgium, proof that you can support yourself during your stay, proof of accommodation, a medical certificate and a certificate to show that you do not have a criminal record. If you are setting up a business in Belgium, you will need to follow certain steps such as making sure you have obtained the necessary business permit if required, registering your business and opening up a business bank account.
Using your Belgian National Register Number
As the Belgian National Register Number is a multi-purpose identity number, you will need it to carry out many transactions in Belgium, including:
- renting or buying property in Belgium
- working in Belgium
- accessing social security in Belgium
- paying taxes in Belgium
- starting up a business in Belgium
- obtaining credit in Belgium, including taking out a mortgage or a mobile phone contract
- buying a car or applying for a driving licence in Belgium
- opening a bank account in Belgium
- setting up utilities or communications in Belgium
For some of these transactions, you will need to provide your Belgian NN, for others you may just need to provide your Belgian ID or residence permit containing your NN.

RICHARDSON, Texas – Senior Holly Denfeld posted a double-double of 14 points and 10 rebounds, but it was not enough as the MSOE women's basketball team fell to UT-Dallas 75-41 in its second contest at the UT-Dallas Classic Saturday afternoon at the UTD Athletic Center.
The Raiders (6-4) fell into a 21-9 hole after one quarter and could not recover against the host Comets (9-2).
Denfeld was MSOE's lone double-digit scorer as senior Margaret Pugh scored seven points. Senior Lizzy Hilby and sophomore Jamie Spanbauer scored six points each.
Kayla Reinhart led UTD with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Alyssa Crockett chipped in with 12 points, as did Victoria Pena off the bench.
After a lengthy time away from the court heading into the tournament, the Raiders struggled to shake off the rust. They ended up shooting 30.6 percent from the field. They fared better from three-point range with a 38.5 percent clip (5-for-13), but went just 6-for-16 at the free throw line. The Comets finished the game shooting 46.2 percent and hitting on 7-of-16 from deep.
MSOE will look to return to its winning ways when it's back in action Tuesday, hosting Concordia Wisconsin.

Most popular dating site in poland match dating uk
Introduction sites differ from the traditional online dating model, and attracted a large number of users and significant investor interest.
In Eastern Europe, popular sites offer full access to messaging and profiles, but provide additional services for pay, such as prioritizing profile position, removing advertisements, and giving paying users access to a more advanced search engine.
Most free dating websites depend on advertising revenue, using tools such as Google Ad Sense and affiliate marketing.
Since advertising revenues are modest compared to membership fees, this model requires a large number of page views to achieve profitability.
Online dating services also differ widely in their revenue streams.
Such sites earn revenue from a mix of advertising and sale of additional options.
This model also allows users to switch between free and paying status at will, with sites accepting a variety of online currencies and payment options.
Most services offer digital messaging, while others provide additional services such as webcasts, online chat, telephone chat (VOIP), and message boards.
Members can constrain their interactions to the online space, or they can arrange a date to meet in person.

What stuck out to me in Power Ponies is how most of the super powers the mane six are portrayed with are things that they could already do. Rainbow Dash controls the weather, Twilight can use all kinds of crazy magic, Pinkie can travel at unusual speeds, Applejack can lasso anything, and Fluttershy becomes extra powerful when she's mad. Arguably Rarity also is great at making things from her imagination, though in her case the power becomes a few magnitudes more literal.
As a result of this, the narrative is really not so much about the mane six gaining new powers, as it is about emphasizing how much more useful all of them are compared to Spike already. It's meant to show you how the mane six essentially are superheroes, and Spike doesn't really do much of anything.
However, just like in Daring Don't, I feel like this would've been delivered better if it really had just been Spike drawing a parallel between the comic book and reality, just as Rainbow Dash did in Read It and Weep. It might've seemed like reusing a plotline, but we wouldn't have the issue of this episode's set up taking so long. More than half of the episode is spent setting up and introducing concepts that are supposed to pay off in the remaining less than ten minutes. We end up with a location, a villain, six superpowers, and magical objects that all feel critically underdeveloped and leave little lasting impact.
Spike draws the parallel between himself and the comic pretty early on, so the middle section of the episode just feels like so much waiting around for him to get on with saving the day, and the situations that play out come across stilted and rushed. The episode pays homage to a ton of comic super heroes, so you can kinda have fun recognizing all the shoutouts, but if you're not that into comics then it probably won't feel that special.
The one thing which did pay off big time was Flutterhulk, and a big part of that was how they clearly paid homage not only to the idea of the Hulk, but to the way that the Hulk's arc is actually portrayed in the Avengers. It has the same build up, and contention from the Banner character over their lack of desire to actually transform. Plus, following through on having Fluttershy hulk out was a big payoff.
Other than that, I enjoyed seeing that Rarity's castle restoration project wasn't just a silly one-off joke in Castle Mane-ia, and I'm suspecting that this castle will continue to make important appearances across the season. I also thought it was clever how Mane-iac's hair allowed her to move in a way similar to Doctor Octopus from Spider-Man. The Pinkie Pie cupcakes joke was funny, some of Rarity's projections were clever, and… that's it. That's all I've got to say about it. It's a Spike episode. Whad'ja expect. If you think I missed something important, let me know in the comments.

Red Laser Activate Metabolism: Lower Blood Pressure and Improve Blood Flow
Increasing age and an unhealthy lifestyle enhance the possibility that cholesterol and other blood fats build up on vessel walls and thus impair the oxygen and nutrient supply to our organs. Vasoconstriction leads to metabolic and microcirculation disorders which in turn result in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke etc. Laser light activates different enzymes and decomposes redundant fat in the bloodstream. It increases the oxygen amount in the blood, boosts metabolism and enhances the process of lipid peroxidation to reduce cholesterol in the vessels.
Main Technical Parameter:
Laser output: 19 diodes
(10x Watch, 7x Pad, 2x Nasal Applicator)
11pcs red laser
4pcs blue light
4pcs yellow light
Output power: 2-5mW
Light: Red laser and LED blue light +LED yellow light together.
Blue LED: stimulates the first complex of the respiratory chain (NADH dehydrogenase).
Instead of just utilizing the red laser, the latest generation now also emits blue light LED in order to activate regeneration processes by stimulating the different parts of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
It has the following effects:
By increasing the activity of fibroblasts blue light optimizes wound healing and improves the oxygen utilization in the tissue. Due to its anti-inflammatory effects, the laser pad can be used very successfully in dermatology.
Why Yellow Light?
Yellow light promotes serotonin and vitamin D metabolism. Vitamin D – the "sunshine vitamin" and "sun hormone" is essential for bones, connective tissue and immune system. It helps to protect against infections and regulates our metabolism and hormone system. Serotonin is our "happiness hormone" and is involved in the regulation of numerous body processes. When binding to certain receptors, it affects the contraction of blood vessels in the cardiovascular system. It also regulates our intestinal movements. Without serotonin, we are mentally labile. The Laser Watch has shown to increase the serotonin level in the blood and thus lightens the mood and stimulates vitality. Yellow light stimulates the mitochondrial respiratory chain at complex III (cytochrome) and acts strongly detoxifying and anti-depressive. .
Prevent Thrombosis, Heart Attack and Stroke.
The risk of thrombosis is especially high during long-distance flights or long car journeys due to the limited room to move. The sitting posture causes a decrease of blood flow in the veins which might then lead to fluid retention and thrombosis. A thrombosis is a blood clot in a vein. If it dissolves and reaches the lungs it can result in lung embolism.
Because of the air pressure fluctuation, low humidity and little fluid intake there is an increased risk of heart attacks and heart and circulatory problems for patients with cardiac diseases.
A heart attack is a persistent circulation disorder and is caused in most cases by a blood clot which can cause a closure of the coronary arteries. Many cardiac muscle cells are dying during a heart attack and influence the functionality if this vital organ.
Stroke is caused by clogged blood vessels and bleeding in the brain. Low cabin pressure and physical inactivity during the flight might present possible risk factors.
A scientific research has already demonstrated the blood flow-increasing effects of the Laser Watch.

im preppin for a show too. i need to get a glucometer. Anyways normally after I eat my carbs PWO i go to sleep rather quickly after. That means I produce quite a high bit of insulin correct... also why Im endo and grow easy, but hard to cut. I got the slin trol and im currently only on Low GI carbs, sweet potatoes, brown rice, and oats. Would the GDA's still benefit me? I read that you advocate trying high GI then low GI at the next meal, but its crunch time and i need to get as much fat off asap as possible. Just lookin for recommendations, didnt get tired at all after my PWO meal tonight though, with the slin trol. Dont know if thats good or bad considering what im going for, (maintaining as much mass as possible, while cutting) and i am "enhanced."
it is a learning experience, its my first time so im learning a hell of alot about MY body.... i know a great deal, just getting things to correlate with what you read and study in school, mags, "guru's, etc. theres just a huge difference on how things work for you. I actually dumped my old trainer and started workin with a friend that i havnt talked to in along time that wins all the shows around here and is qualified for nationals and i think we may have things lined out. THe way i looked today i may be ready for the show in 4 weeks instead of the Kansas State in 10, but i think i'd actually rather do the one in 10 weeks lol. Just gotta stay consistent, stick with the same thing and keep at it. The old guy was definitely hurting my progress though.
Can you link this thread on here iv tried to find it to no avail
My coach told me to start accept steroids. I am new to all of this. After all,it's not secret, that steroids is
the most effective means for a set of lean muscle mass and increase strength. I decided to try.
On another forum, peole advised me a website where you can buy them. thepharmacom.com.
Some of you made the order on this site?What are you thinking about it?
I really just wanna make my own posts already. smdh...
What do you buy in this shop?
And show your results, if you can.3rwfw3r.jpg
P.S This was my first order
When I was cutting I took slin-trol which consist of 200 mcg of Chromium polynicotate and 10 mg of Vanadyl sulfate. I would take them at meals 1,2,5,6. The GDA's were great also with me cheat meal I would take a double dose with the cheat lord of the ocean. They make me appear harder and fuller as they help shuttle the nutrients to the muscle and away from the fat cells. Yes tipsta and scooby are two people who know there shit about GDA's.
Hey guys just looking for some feedback. I have done lots of research on this so here is what I'm thinking of doing.
Front Load - 500 or 700mg First Shot
Week 1-8 Test-E 500mg Week
Week 10 Nolvadex 40 mg day
11 Nolvadex 20 mg day
12 Nolvadex 20 mg day
13 Nolvadex 10 mg day purchased it on https://steroids-evolution.com
What do you think? Any help suggestions?

If you have any other Solution please let me know!
Thanks Mate.... :)
Well, per that link, it's most likely one of three things
1: A bad video cable or connection
2: A bad LCD display
3: A faulty Video adapter on the motherboard.
Did you do any troubleshooting?
1. Check the video cables?
2. Check for bad LCD by attaching an external monitor to your laptop when the LCD display is acting up or white?

However, 7 out of 10 people who have tried to build a business have failed. Often, reasons why businesses fail are quite simple. Things like lack of management, financial or economic knowledge, being afraid to take risks or not taking any risks at all, following your competitor's every step and becoming invisible…the list is long. The good news is there are 3 simple steps to start building a successful business:

There is absolutely no doubt that entertainment has changed significantly over the years. In the early days, most people listened to the radio to kill their time. Then, the television was introduced and it stole the spotlight. Today, more and more people are playing online games and this is not a coincidence. There are tons of reasons that online games have become so popular over the past few years. Within this guide, you're going to learn about many of those reasons.
Faster Internet
In the early days, online games were pretty basic and limited. They offered basic graphics and it was usually only possible to play with one or two people. That has changed since Internet technology has improved so greatly. Today, the Internet is faster than ever. This makes it possible to gamers to play with hundreds of people all around the world. Plus, the graphics have become much more realistic.
More Accessible
It is also true that there are more online games than ever. If you want to play online roulette games today, you just need to perform a search and begin playing almost immediately. On top of that, there are tons of games to choose from. You can play role-playing games, first person shooters, strategy games and so much more. No matter what you're after, you can pretty much guarantee that you're going to be able to find something that suits your individualistic needs and playing preference.
Many years ago, the most popular online games required a monthly subscription. Those subscriptions were pretty expensive. This left a lot of people out in the cold. After all, not everyone wants to pay a monthly bill to play a video game. Thankfully, this is no longer a problem. Now, it is possible for consumers to play many online games for free. It is true that there are many in-game purchase options. Nevertheless, you can usually play the entire game for free.
Casual And Hardcore
There is no doubt that some games are only suitable for hardcore games. Hardcore games require a lot of time and grinding. With casual games, you don't have to worry about this. You can log on for a few minutes each day and play until you're sick of it. You can also play anywhere in the world since many games are now available on mobile platforms. It doesn't matter what type of player you are, you can guarantee that you'll find something that suits your experience level.
Money To Be Made
Finally, you should know that online games have become a big business over the years. E-sports have gotten immensely popular and this has helped many players generate money while playing their favorite games. This is unlikely going to change at any point in the future. This is yet another reason why online games have grown in popularity. Many people are playing diligently each and every day in hopes of improving their skills and make it to the big leagues. This is encouraging more people to remain on their computers or in front of their television screens for longer than ever before.
