Im 23 years old and i have recently been diagnosed with hypogonadism. I have good reason to believe it was cause by an undescended testicle i had lowered when i was 15 yrs old. I am currently waiting to see an endo specialist who will most likely put me on testosterone therapy. My overall testosterone read 201. My biggest problem is the size of my genitals. my penis is about an 2 to 3 inches in length when limp and i've measured 7 inches erect. My testicles measure about 3and a half cm in length. i have plenty of pubic hair but i have minimal chest hair and beard growth. I need to know what the chances are that genitals will reach normal size with this treatment. what options do i have?
Will my genitalia grow with treatment?

I hate to break it to you but 7 inches while erect is actually pretty normal in size. 5- 7 inches is about average in penis length for mature males. 7 inches is plenty large enough to satisfy a woman during sex. Size truely doesnt matter as much as a male who is willing to be attentive to his partner and is sensitive enough to want to be sure they are satisfied. Your secondary sex characteristics seem normal too. You have plenty of pubic hair and many males do not have much chest hair or beard/facial hair. It is as varied as female breast size. Dont worry so much about size. It is really not important. This is a matter where quality is better than quanity. Has your Dr said you are small? Hypogonadism usually refers to a matter that a male is sterile not small. Talk with your physician about your concerns.
Actually scratch what I said about hypogonadism, that is not entirely true. Some men with hypogonadism are sterile but you may not be. Your testosterone is low but not horribly. The fact that you are able to get an erectuion is a good sign. Like I said your secondary sex characteristics dont seem abnormal to me from what you describe. I would recommend that you talk with your Dr. How is your muscle mass and overall size (height and weight). Taking testosterone supplements may help but I'm not sure if they will enlarge the penis. It may help to enlarge the testicles though. But like I said your penis is not small, it is an average length.
Thanks for replying I appreciate it. well I have my appointment set for a month from now but I'm dying with anticipation. I have been concealing this problem for far too long. Unfortunately it has robbed me of about 8 years of my life. Something has to change...
forgot to menton My urologist did say my testicles were undersized and said that penis size does not matter. but it does appear undersized when limp.
Size when limp has no bearing on the size when erect and at 7 inches you are just fine. Nobody notices testicles. Dont worry! Like I said, being attentive and trying to satisfy your partner has a lot more bearing on lovemaking than size!!
so i recently found out from my endocrinologist that i am sterile.. apparently i do not produce a detectable amount of sperm. im in the process of seeing a fertility expert but im having insurance problems because i am not actively trying to have a child. i have also been on axiron for going on three months. 90 mg per axilla daily. the only change i have noticed is a minor loss in in abdominal fat and some muscle gain. im roughly 15lbs heavier and i feel slightly stronger. however i still find it difficult to maintain an erection during sex. im hoping this works but at the same time i dont want this medicine to ruin my chances even further of concieiving in the future

Archivist and author Janica Anderson is currently writing a biography on Ruth Fuller Everett Sasaki and Sokei-an Sasaki, a project which has taken her a good decade to research and write; she also hopes for a feature film to accompany it. Sokei-an was a Rinzai Zen teacher from Japan and Ruth was an American aristocrat who later married Sokei-an. According to the Kickstarter Campaign, Janica is an archivist of spoken audio recordings with 13 archives under her care (the largest of which is the Esalen Institute archive). She is also separately seeking funds to digitize the archives. See www.bigsurtapes.com
According to her campaign page, Anderson explains her need to raise funds for this book project as follows: "This book has been a labor of love, but I have now come to the point in the project where I need help. Kickstarter is God send. I seek funds to travel to Kyoto, Japan to complete my research; funds to hire a editor, who will help me polish the book; funds to hire an audio engineer, to edit the 9 hours of the interview of Ruth. I also seek funds to hire a screen writer. There have been a few, full length feature films on Tibetan Buddhism, but to my knowledge none on Zen Buddhism. There is no doubt this unforgettable story of awakening and love will make an inspiring book and extrodinary feature film."
So, check out her Kickstarter campaign and consider whether you'd like to donate.

The Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) was an American self-styled left-wing urban militant group active between 1973 and 1975 that considered itself a revolutionary vanguard army. The group committed bank robberies, two murders and other acts of violence.
The SLA became internationally notorious for kidnapping media heiress Patty Hearst, abducting the 19-year-old as she and her 26-year-old boyfriend, Steven Weed, sat relaxing in their Berkeley, California home. Interest increased when Hearst, in audiotaped messages delivered to (and broadcast by) regional news media, denounced her parents and announced she had joined the SLA. She was subsequently observed participating in their illegal activities. Hearst later alleged that she had been held in close confinement, sexually assaulted and brainwashed.

High SchoolPrincipal Sandi Ortiz
CCA's High School instructors equip students to move forward toward college and careers with their faith as a framework for success. CCA's high school curriculum far surpasses the State of Ohio requirements for graduation, and provides students to navigate a complex world with Biblical truth. CCA graduates are regularly accepted into top-tier universities, and well-prepared for college coursework. A wide array of co-curricular activities round out the academic experience, while providing leadership opportunities for students.
Academic Support
Tutoring Services
Students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP) from their home school district may access tutoring services through the use of the State of Ohio's Jon Peterson Scholarship Program. Working in conjunction with this program, qualifying students receive professional tutoring on the CCA campus during their regular academic day.
College Counseling
The College Counseling Program provides personal counseling to students and their parents, helping them navigate college selection and the application process. Both juniors and seniors are required to attend a mandatory meeting with the Director of Student Counseling to discuss college planning. Parents are strongly encouraged to attend college counseling sessions. The counselor helps students understand the college application process, maximize scholarship and financial aid opportunities, and consider college majors and career paths. Presently the Principal, Director of Student Counseling, and Junior and Senior Class Advisors share academic guidance responsibilities at CCA. Numerous resources for college and financial aid searches are also available through the Office of Student Counseling.
College Credit Plus (CCP)
Cornerstone Christian Academy offers qualifying juniors and seniors College Credit Plus (CPP) coursework through Cedarville University and Malone University. These universities align with CCA's Biblical worldview in content and curriculum. CCP students have the opportunity to complete dual-credit coursework on the CCA campus, using Chromebook technology. CCP credit meets CCA graduation requirements, and also represents transferable college credit. CCA does not grant direct dual-credit for coursework taken outside of the CCA-CCP program. Students who present transcripts for college coursework taken at other institutions may be given elective credit at the discretion of the Administration.
Chromebook Technology
In order to provide students with the most enriching educational experience, CCA recently introduced Chromebooks to our student body. Each student has access to a Chromebook during the academic day; middle school and high school students may also take their Chromebook unit home.
CCA's Technology Team has put many Chromebook safeguards in place to protect students. The goal is to ensure the highest level of security, so technology enhances the learning experience. Obviously, there are many social media websites that contain inappropriate content–these sites have been filtered out, and our current system aligns with CCA's Christian mission. The Chromebooks have been equipped to use many apps that will enhance learning. However, students are not able to add apps that have not been approved by CCA faculty and administration.

In the West, diamond has a rich tradition. Diamonds are here often linked to weddings, engagements and therefore also to engagement rings: a diamond is forever. Diamond rings and other diamond jewellery also become increasingly popular with westernized consumers in Asia. Along with the increased number of millionaires, the demand for diamond has therefore boomed. And the Asian market has not reached its limit yet.
Diamond rings: now also in Asia thé symbol of love
China and India now already purchase more diamonds than Japan, the European Union and the Persian Gulf. Just as Western consumers associate the most important moments in one's life, like weddings and engagements, more and more with a diamond ring. Valentine's Day also becomes very established and is strongly associated with diamond.
Rising demand for diamond creates chain reaction
Experts predict that the demand for diamonds in Asia will only increase the coming years. Both for more exclusive coloured diamonds, colourless diamonds, as well as synthethic diamonds.
In China, this evolution is due to the rising number of millionaires, which increases faster than in Europe or the United States. This also has an impact on consumer behavior of the average Chinese, who become more and more interested in exclusive luxury products.
It is not the first time that such an evolution is taking place: in a period of 30 years, the number of brides who get a diamond ring in Japan increased from 6% to 80%.
In India, will the diamond ring dethrone the golden ring?
For India, it is predicted that it will become the fastest growing market in the world for luxury jewellery after China. The Western tradition to seal engagements and weddings with a diamond ring is also making its entrance. Observers even suspect that the demand for diamonds will be larger than the demand for gold. That is remarkable for a country that since time immemorial is known for its great affinity with gold.
The European consumer? He already knows where he gets the best quality at the best price. At BAUNAT you will find an unrivaled range of diamond rings and other diamond jewellery. Always at exceptional prices, because BAUNAT sells its collections mainly online. Looking for a diamond jewel to treasure forever? Quickly discover the exclusive BAUNAT jewellery collections!

Simple 430 SSB transceiver by JF1OZL
1.Circumstances of this product.
I made and used 50MHz-ssb transceiver for these years. One night on the air, my friend (JE3TXU/1:Mr.Haraguchi) said to me that ,"50MHz is easy to build, and we must challenge to build 430MHz ssb ." This is my first 430-SSB-transceiver. this is very simple. This transceiver uses bilateral theory in many parts of whole configuration.
2. General construction of this transceiver
See fig 2! This is a diagram of transmitter. Audio signal is amplified by audio AMP. It is inserted to IF-port of the DBM. On the other hand local oscillator makes 19.9961-MHz signal. It is inserted on a local-port of DBM. Then I can receive 19.9961-DSB signal on the RF-port of DBM. See fig4! Only lower side band of DSB signal can pass through handmade-crystal filter. Therefore There comes LSB-signal on the exit of the crystal filter. This signal is amplified by IF-AMP. And it is inserted to the frequency converter. On the other hand, 14MHz VXO is constructed with the 42.222MHz named crystal. And it is multiplied 32 times. There comes 450MHz signal. At the converter 450MHz CW-signal and 19.9961MHz-LSB signal are mixed. There comes 430MHz-USB signal and 470MHz-LSB signal. Only 430MHz signal can passes through the 430MHz band pass filter. RF-AMP is only single stage. And after the signal passes through the BPF again, it goes to the antenna. And radiated from the antenna to the air. I will Explain about the receiver. See fig 3! The signal from the antenna passes through all each the circuits, as the counter direction from that of transmitter. Two oscillators continue to work in both timing of receive and transmit. Therefore I have no need to be afraid the changing of the frequency between receiving and transmitting. Originally, by the way of development , the transmitting-converter was used also as receive-converter. But the self oscillation has happened. Therefore I made FET-receive converter another from transmitting-converter. I can re-construct the transceiver easily, because it is constructed on the mother-board. The AF-AMP has 40dB-gain. The gain of it is enough to the microphone-AMP. But for the receiver, I need extra gain. Therefore I sat the pre-AMP. It gives me more 35dB-gain only while receive.
3.Explanation of each block.
...About local oscillator unit....
Oscillator is constructed by 14MHz-VXO and five times (doubler=) double multiplier. See fig 1. VXO is made of varicap-diode. I like to use a air-varicon(variable capacitor is called so in Japan). But in this machine, I use the varicap-diode. By using varicap-diode I can lay out the oscillator-unit and tuning-dial freely in the case. When I use a air-varicon, I must locate the air-varicon near from the local-oscillator unit. See fig 10! Originally oscillator was constructed by VXO using coil. Some operator send me the report that my signal has QRH. Therefore I changed the construction. I used the coil-less-VXO. See fig 11! Original-coil-VXO has 600Hz of QRH by 20 minutes. And the coil-less VXO is improved in this point. By this VXO transmitting-frequency is tunable from 430.2352 MHz to 430.3256MHz. I bought the 42.222MHz third overtone crystal by mail-order business and use it with it*s original frequency. The five-times-doubler is constructed by push-push doubler. I learn about this doubler in the ARRL-handbook. This type of doubler can work very sure. Because it works as C class amplifier, it has no possibility to make useless self oscillation. And this type of doubler can make very pure signal. Because it has double tuner on the corrector, it avoid to through the original frequency, it avoid to product three harmonic frequency. Yes you can believe it is the double frequency signal if you can get some signal on the output of this circuit. I do not have a spectrum analyzer, therefore I must choice such a reliable and easy to tune circuit. I want to say one more this type of doubler is free from miss tuning. ....Five doubler is constructed by the same circuit. But the dealing frequency is different from each other. I must choose the transistor to match the frequency.
The ft-of the transistor must be 10 times bigger than the frequency dealt by that circuit . Or else you can not get the enough electric output power on the outside of the any types of amplifier or multiplier. Yes, it is very important basic theory that you should care about it. Please take a red pencil and please mark the upper line of your CRT display!
The first doubler makes 28MHz output, so it is made by 2sc1815(ft=80MHz).
The second doubler makes 56MHz output, so it is made by 2sc372(ft=200MHz).
The third doubler makes 112MHz output, so it is made by 2sc2347(ft=650MHz).
The fourth doubler makes 224MHz output, so it is made by 2sc2347(ft=650MHz).
The fifth doubler makes 460MHz output, so it is made by 2sc3356(ft=7000MHz).
You say that I do not keep 10 times theory? Yes my friends call me "About man".HiHi.
In the UHF circuit, the leg of the parts must be made very short, else you meet the self-oscillation or lack of output-power. See fig5! It indicates how to make 430 MHz band-pass-filter. In this filter, if you lay each coils more closely, you can get more power. But too close lay out gives the poor filtering character. If you take some space from each other, you can get cleaner signal from it. But too much distance gives you poor signal strength. Therefore, you must adjust the combine-factor of this band pass filter. In order to tune the connection factor , solder the 1.5D2V(Japanese industrial standard calls so) coxial cable wire on the coil. And on the other side of the cable, join the dummy load and 1N60 diode and the prove of oscilloscope. If you joint the dummy-load and the prove directly on the side of the band-pass-filter-coil, the electro-magnetic force of 430MHz makes the influence to the prove of oscilloscope and you can not measure correctly.
.....Audio frequency amplifier ....
Audio-frequency-amplifier is constructed by a normal transducer-push-pull-amplifier. Three-series LED is connected on the first side of trans. The LED begin to brink when it*s voltage becomes over 2 volts. Therefore it can limit the voltage with 2 volts. Therefore this three LED array limits the voltage amplitude on the first side of the output transformer with 6Vp-p. If you use more LED , limiting point becomes bigger. When I speak to my microphone the LED lights. It indicates this limiter makes it's job then.
....Local oscillator unit ...
I must use the five 20MHz crystals to built this gear. Four of them is used for filter. One of them is used for the local oscillator. See fig4! At first I made a filter. And I tried some types of oscillator to make suitable 19.9961 MHz signal. FET-COLPITS-oscillator is used for the purpose. You must adjust the capacitor between source and ground to get the suitable frequency. By this method you can make SSB-signal with a set of 5 the same crystals.
....modulator unit ...
Modulator unit is made by diode-ring-modulator. You must limit the audio signal smaller than half(-6dB) of the carrier signal. Else DSB signal becomes dirty.
....ladder type crystal filter ...
See fig 6! Join four the same crystals series. And join the nine same capacitors between the crystals and the ground. The capacitor becomes bigger , narrower the pass band becomes. But you cannot change the center of pass band. It is decided by the original frequency of the crystal. Put the attenuator of resister on the front and end of the filter. Else shape of pass band becomes bad. This filter has the loss about 10dB. So you must use IF AMP after it, to cover the loss of the signal. See fig 7! It indicates how to adjust the filter. You can plot the characteristic of the filter by this system. If the pass band is wider than 4KHz, change the capacitors for bigger one. And try again. If the band pass is narrower than 2.5KHz , change the capacitors to smaller one. It may need 6 hours to make this adjustment with this signal oscillator and frequency counter.
If the filter is narrower than 2KHz your transmitting-voice may become like nose-closed-person, because the upper half of your voice be cut. If the filter is wider than 5KHz, your rig may have QRM on the crowded band , because the filter can pass the neighbor side signal. Therefore the pass band of the filter should be adjusted between 2.5 to 4KHz.
Next stage is IF AMP. If you can complete these units, please test it! Contact the vinyl wire on the output of IF AMP! Make loose contact between the wire and some kind of radio. The radio must be wide band type to receive the IF frequency 20MHz in this case. The radio must have BFO(beet-frequency-oscillator) on it to demodulate the SSB signal. If you can get some helper, put the microphone of the transmitter in front of the mouth of your helper! If you can not get any helper, please use the tape recorder. Adjust the carrier-point! If the carrier is located too far from the band-pass of the filter, you cannot hear some low voice clearly like the Buuuu or wooooo, because the lower spectrum of the voice is cut. If the carrier is located too near from the band-pass of the filter, you cannot hear the high voice like sha syu syo.
.... converter ....
Converter is constructed by the push-pull-active-single-balanced-mixer. Also in the case of this mixer, the IF signal must be smaller (lower signal strength level) than the local signal. Therefore I put the 10-ohm-resister in front of the IF AMP. In stead of this tuning, you can add one more amplifier on the local oscillator. It is a matter of total signal revel planning as the transmitter. ............I will explain about the tuning of emitter resister of the converter. The smaller resister if you use, the conversion-gain becomes bigger. But it may need more power as the local signal. The bigger the resister if you use ,the smaller level of the oscillator can drive satisfactory this converter. But the conversion gain become small in this case. In this machine I made, the conversion gain becomes -8dB. Its loss is smaller than diode converter. But the conversion gain is far smaller than the normal nallow band converter. In this converter you must use high ft-transistor. I use 2sc3510(ft=3500MHz). See fig 8. Emitter-base-collector are printed on the package of this transistor. I guess the designer of this transistor (Technika of Hitachi) may be kind person.HiHi
... power AMP ....
Power AMP is constructed by the wide-band-push-pull-A-class AMP. This type products very clean signal. But ft of the transistor must be bigger than ten times of 430MHz. Output-power of AMP is 10mW QRPP. Please look the last figure of this page. I measured the total transmitting signal frequency character with spectrum analizer of Japanese amateur radio association. The through of local signal 350MHz , and the difference side of the converter 470MHz is suppressed 40dB or more than the transmitting signal of 430MHz.
....Receiver ...
In the receiver, all the circuit is used as the counter direction from the transmitter. All the circuits is changed by small relay. Only the front converter of the receiver is constructed by two gate FET. It is normal usage of this FET, that is developed to use the front converter of TV receiver set.
....4.... When I use this transceiver .....
I make some local-expedition, on the hill, about 500 meter high, on the Tsukuba mountain. With 10 element Yagi-antenna, I could make QSO with the stations on Yokohama and Tokyo. I got 51 to 57 report. MY rig is 10 milliwatt QRPP, but I can use many element-Yagi in this band easy. 10mW operation with 10dB gained antenna has the same meaning with 100mW dipole operation. Let's challenge 430MHz! Don't care of your mistake! .
At the end of this page ,I will show you the character of the transistors to help your own choice.

Posted by BE on August 7th, 2017
The new Leader of the Opposition has undertaken to be 'relentlessly positive' between now and the Election in September.
If her appearance on yesterday's 'Q & A' with Deputy Leader Kelvin Davis is anything to go by, his role is to be 'relentlessly negative'.
'Relentless' is generally a negative term: 'relentless rain, relentless suffering' etc. One would not commonly refer to 'relentless good weather' or 'relentless happiness'. The same is true of 'relentlessly positive'. It sounds incongruous, fake.
To illustrate her relentless positivity, Jacinda Ardern smiled relentlessly during her interview with Jessica Mutch on yesterday's Q &A. That seemed incongruous too, with 'fake' not far behind.
Between now and September Jacinda will be relentlessly feted by her adoring supporters. It will be tempting for her to hear little else. I would counsel against that. That dry, laconic, southern man currently running the show comes pretty close to the Kiwi version of the ideal joker. He wouldn't have looked out of place in the front passenger seat with Barry Crump.
I think "relentlessly" works rather well with "positive" in this instance after all, incongruous or not, it got you commenting on it.
You can be 'relentlessly positive' After I spent a month in China about a decade ago I commented to a friend afterwards: "I could never live in China. The relentlessly positive reports on the English language television would drive me nuts within a few weeks."
Yes Brian, but 50% of us are women and don't relate to that Southern man type.
It's hugely refreshing to see a happy, positive young woman who is showing just how competent she is in handling the media…………..she wasn't relentlessly positive, by standing up for all woman against Mark Richardson.
There is a lot more to her than her happy, positive face. She's very smart and this has come across in all her interviews to date.
Anne Kerr: "She [Jacinda] is very smart?" Not if she's the same vapid young woman I used to listen to inevitably failing to score hits in the House…Paula Bennett will wipe the floor with her…even Wooden Top English will slice and dice her…
Ha! I remember the same words being said about John Key. He'll be no match for Helen, they said. Listen to him mangle the English language, haw haw, they laughed. Then they watched him win three elections, pretty-much powerless to do anything about it.
Oh what a short memory one gets when they're trying to score baseless political points…
I'm sure Jacinda can ooze a bit of gravitas for you Brian.
"That dry, laconic, southern man currently running the show comes pretty close to the Kiwi version of the ideal joker." Really? From which decade? That image of NZ is tired and Adern is showing it.
I agree that the 'relentlessly positive' slogan is hackneyed but Adern has something that I have never seen in a politician before. She comes across as authentic and positive without compromising on principle and toughness. Women get her. Young people get her. Gen X & Y get her. And because it is amongst those people that the future of NZ actually resides – not with the perceived selfishness of the grey, heavily-propertied baby boomers – that everyone else is going to follow.
Bob Jones suggested part of the reason John Key and Nelson Mandela were so popular was that they were natural smilers. That probably applied to Tony Blair and Winston Peters too. Ardern seems to be a natural smiler?
Agree Brian:'relentlessly positive' sounds incongruous, fake
Evidence suggests positive attitudes lead to positive results–like 'relentlessly positive' candidates being more likely to be elected. However, I believe this could merely reflect societal prejudice against those with negative or merely realistic attitudes.
Positivism is a mass delusion of self-hypnosis, mind control and thought control. Simply put, "it requires deliberate self-deception, including a constant effort to repress or block out unpleasant possibilities and 'negative' thoughts."
Clearly, this is the path that Jacinda Ardern has opted to take as a means of deflecting the Green Party fallout with her 'relentlessly positive' campaign to, "always look on the bright side." However, with the political landscape likely to serve one or two further challenges for Labour to respond to, Ardern will be required to constantly adjust her attitude and revise her perceptions in response to any future difficulties that might arise.
In my opinion, Jacinda Ardern has been poorly advised with her 'relentlessly positive' strategy, which will require her to walk on a very thin political tightrope between now and September.
I believe it's scepticism and critical thinking that Jacinda Ardern should be embracing right now, rather than foolishly denying Labour's political reality.
The decision by Kennedy Graham and David Clendon's to quit in protest over the Metiria Turei's refusal to step down serves as an important reminder that the public should expect and demand a high standard of
accountability, honesty, and integrity from our politicians.
In life, we are told to strive to see things as they truly are, as uncoloured as possible by perceptions and feelings. Unfortunately, it would appear that this is something that Jacinda Ardern might need to be reminded of if she truly believes that Labour will be able to form a new government in September.
Yeah, wrong choice of word. "Dogged" would be more suited. "Relentless" conjures up 'GTF outta my way, I'm commin' thru'.
Whenever I see a gathering of Green MPs, it somehow reminds me of a motley bunch of Bohemians and wayfarers, all gussied-up and ready to go to town. I'm not sure I want enthusiastic drongos anywhere near the levers of power.

Code of conduct to set standard for FX market
KINGSTON, Jamaica (JIS) — Governor of the Bank of Jamaica (BOJ), Brian Wynter, says the Foreign Exchange Code of Conduct, currently being crafted, will bring greater order and standard to the foreign exchange market.
He noted that while there are excellent institutions operating within the market, the standards are not consistent across all entities.
"So we are looking at creating some common standards that will assist in an effective market from the consumer's point of view. It will also have parts that deal with how dealers should interact with each other and with the central bank," he noted.
Wynter was addressing a forum hosted by the Jamaica Chamber of Commerce (JCC) at The Knutsford Court Hotel in New Kingston today to discuss, among other things, the BOJ's recently introduced Foreign Exchange Intervention and Trading Tool (B-FXITT).
The Foreign Exchange Code of Conduct is being drafted by a subgroup of the Foreign Exchange Market Development Committee, which consists of market intermediaries such as banks, authorised dealers and cambios.
The BOJ Governor said the final draft, which is expected to be completed in a few months, will be presided over by the central bank.
He explained that all major markets have codes of conduct governing foreign exchange, and that a global foreign exchange code of conduct was recently introduced.
The FX Global Code was drawn up over the past two years by a coalition of central bankers known as the FX Working Group.
The code's 55 principles lay down international standards on a range of practices, from the handling of confidential information to the pricing and settlement of deals.
Meanwhile, the BOJ Governor explained that B-FXITT, which is a tool used to facilitate the buying as well as selling of foreign exchange, is designed to foster more competitive behaviour among authorised dealers and cambios.
"The process should reward the dealers who provide the best service and the best margins to customers, and disadvantages those who do not," he contended.
B-FXITT corrects weaknesses in the old selling mechanism. In a dynamic market, using the previous day's weighted average selling rate would not always reflect the true market price on a day of transaction.
This would mean that some institutions may have bought foreign exchange from the central bank at a price too expensive or too cheap, compared to what they might have paid in the open market.
B-FXITT mitigates certain issues and levels the playing field for all participants. Through the new foreign exchange system, BOJ now sells foreign exchange at market-determined rates, and the average daily rate at those times is now at a more accurate reference rate.
The JCC forum was organised with a view to encouraging dialogue around B-FXITT, and provided an opportunity for business operators to exchange their thoughts with the central bank's head.

I recently presented a session for the E-Learning Guild's Annual Online Learning Forum 2015 about how to create engaging scenarios for e-learning. (The session was recorded and Guild members can view the recording here.). In preparation for that session I built a branched e-learning scenario, using Articulate Storyline 2, called The Job Interview.
What do I mean by branched scenario? It means that the learner can follow different paths (or different "branches") through the course, depending how interview questions are answered. For example: if you select the worst choice for the first question in the scenario and arrive to the interview 30 minutes late, that path, or branch, ends right there. Your interview is cancelled and they've moved on to the next candidate.
However, choose the option that has you arriving 5 minutes early and you score bonus points. The order and the amount of questions in the interview, as well as the amount of points scored (indicated through the progress meter), is totally dependent on the choices made by the learner.
Try it out yourself and let me know in the comments, how many tries did it take you to land your dream gig?

The biophysical and biochemical properties of RADA16-I, the representative of a class of self-assembling peptides, were studied to elucidate the molecular mechanism of nanofiber and hydrogel formations. We found that self-assembly occurs in the solution at low pH (pH 4), rather than the popular belief that it occurs in the physiological environment. Actually, the peptide lost its β-sheet structure and formed irregular aggregates in the condition around pH 7. Our results demonstrated that the extended conformation of peptide backbone caused by the electrostatic repulsive force in acid solution is crucial for the peptide to self-assemble into nanofibers. Importantly, we have proposed a mechanism for the peptide to form nanofiber hydrogel in the physiological condition, which is not propitious for nanofiber formation. Hypothetically, it is by virtue of the tendency of fibers to collapse and form irregular aggregates at pH 7 that we could obtain stable hydrogels by introducing phosphate buffered saline into the system.
Frequency sweep data on 1 wt % RADA16-I (a) in pure water without triggering; (b) triggered by PBS or NaOH to form hydrogel
The typical AFM morphological images of 100 μM peptide RADA16-I at different conditions: (a) in pure water (pH 4), (b) in PBS (pH 7.1), and (c) in 0.9% NaCl
Chemical structures of RADA16-I in the solution of pH 4 (a) and pH 7 (b). (a) The peptide was mainly positively charged. The four alkaline arginine side chains are ionized to positive charges, while four acidic aspartic side chains are hardly ionized and almost neutrally charged. (b) The peptide contained alternating positive and negative charges.
The effect of different solutions on secondary structure of peptide RADA16-I (0.1 mM). All the spectra were obtained at 25°C after incubation overnight at 4°C, and peptide RADA16-I exhibited a typical β-sheet structure (minimum at ∼216 nm, maximum at 196 nm) in pure water. The color patterns and different solutions are shown in the frame.
Schematic representation of three-dimensional molecular model of RADA16-I. Carbon atoms are white, oxygen atoms are red, nitrogen atoms are blue, and hydrogen atoms are gray. The dimensions are about 5 nm in length, 1.3 nm in height, and 0.8 nm in width (32).

A restaurant that got stiffed on a tip by a football superstar may have the last laugh, and could do so all the way to the bank.
The 20-cent tip seen round the world is now selling on eBay, in the form of the receipt of a meal had by Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy.
In the wake of McCoy's leaving of a piddling gratuity, the restaurant's owner has waged a media campaign to shame the athlete, now resorting to a popular auction website. where the current high bid is flirting with $100,000.

text: If I am correct, you cannot line lap the VL sprocket side bearing due to bushing as opposed to bearing race in pinion side. Is there a lap in the 96710-40 line lap kit that will lap the sprocket side bearing? Reason I am asking is, due to location of the left bearing collar chain oiler out outside of sprocket bearing race, seems you would have to use a blind hole lap. I just need to verify what type lap to use. If I need to buy the regular Harley 96710-40 line lap kit, I will but not sure. Thanks!!

Avocado oil has practiced since ages to enhance hair condition & stimulate the hair growth. The positive point of this oil is that it normally is available at an affordable price & also has no side effects. Below described regarding Benefits Of Avocado Oil For Hair.
Avocado oil includes the remarkably high content of monounsaturated fatty acids and minerals, vitamins, anti-oxidants too. In this post we have listed below are the five most significant benefits of this oil on hair and also the steps about how to apply the avocado oil for your hair.
Avocado Oil helps to Moisturize Your Hair:
The avocado oil contains monounsaturated fatty acid is also further than extra virgin oil & is one of the best reasons for its being so helpful for hair. If the hair is dry, damaged & fragile because of poor nutrition, chemical treatments, heat styling, & then monounsaturated fats application, environmental pollution, whether straight or can hydrate, in a mask, nurture & strengthen hair stresses, enhance the process they look & save them from hair damage.
How To Apply Avocado Oil As A Moisturizer:
To obtain the best results, use one egg, beat it well & combine with one teaspoon of avocado oil. Blend in one teaspoon of fresh virgin olive oil or rosemary oil. Massage the mix smoothly into your scalp & hair, beginning from the scalp till the hair finishes. Let the mask sits on for nearly thirty minutes, and then clean the hair well. Follow with shampooing the hair as common.
Avocado Oil For the Hair Growth:
Avocado is such a light weight oil that it's extremely useful contents, such as the monounsaturated fatty acids, phytosterols & rich amounts of antioxidants like vitamin E make well absorbed into the scalp & hair shafts. It in turn not only gives excellent moisturizing & protective effects upon environment-stressors & damage, but also can result into unblocking of closed hair follicles and support new hair growth. All these three components, particularly, antioxidant, vitamin E, moisturizing plants sterols & the massive levels of monounsaturated acids included in avocado oil have individually supported for fuelling hair growth.
Avocado Oil To Stop Hair Loss:
Massaging avocado oil all over the scalp enhances the blood flow to the hair follicles. The improved blood flow & circulation to your scalp permits higher amounts of nutrients to transfer the hair follicles – preventing hair loss & making the hair healthier in common.
You can use the oil with conditioner or make an avocado oil hair mask to strengthen the hair & stops hair loss.
Avocado To Condition The Hair:
It works to perk up the condition of the hair to make it feel more supple and elastic. Its elevated fat content improves the smoothness of the hair to do it less likely to damage. After cleaning the hair with the favorite shampoo, use the homemade avocado hair conditioner, Allowing it for at least 10 minutes, & then rinse it off with the lukewarm water.
How To Do Avocado Oil Hair Conditioner at Home:
Just mix thoroughly mashed ripe avocado with fresh virgin olive oil to make a thick, spreadable paste.
Replenishes The Hair Vitamins:
The avocado fruit from that the oil is derived has loaded with loads of vitamins, comprising vitamins B & E that aid stimulates the cellular levels & strengthening the hair health at the same time. Vitamin B is essential for hair growth & vitamin E aids in revitalizing the scalp. As otherwise, an unhealthy scalp hampers hair growth and can lead to initial hair loss.
To get the best results from using avocado hair oil, use it collectively with the conditioner or as a hair mask.
Avocado Oil helps To Treat Dandruff:
Apply avocado oil on your hair to reduce dandruff. It not only can treat dandruff but too helps in decreasing blemishes on the scalp as of eczema & psoriasis.
The way is to massage the oil smoothly into the scalp in the circular motion to step up the conversion rate.

Last week, the Eleventh Circuit finished out the week with a wide variety of issues, ranging from a decision on the scope of an NASD arbitration agreement, to an interesting immigration case addressing the United States' protection to the husband of a woman subject to China's family planning laws, to the reasonableness of the former Atlanta mayor's sentence for tax evasion.
Starting with the last case first, in USA v. Campbell, the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the reasonableness of former Atlanta Mayor Bill Campbell's sentence resulting from his conviction for tax evasion (although he was acquitted of RICO). Far from questioning the reasonableness of the sentence, the panel questioned whether it was sufficiently severe, but because (as the panel complained in a footnote) the government did not cross-appeal, the court did not have the opportunity to address whether the 30-month sentence should have been higher. And, the details of the opinion generally reflect the view that Campbell should consider himself lucky he was only convicted of tax evasion and only got 30 months.
Embedded in this opinion is the court's recognition of a potential issue brought to the fore by the recent U.S. Supreme Court case of Rita v. United States: the Eleventh Circuit (post-Booker) has, in contrast with other circuits, held that a sentence within the guidelines range is not necessarily presumptively reasonable. It did so for reasons that are potentially undermined by the reasoning in Rita, however, and in Rita the Supreme Court affirmed circuit decisions affording such a presumption. In the Campbell opinion, the court resists such a presumption, although seemingly inviting an en banc petition or cert petition on the issue. (Note: Campbell also challenged the district court's disqualification of his first counsel, Craig Gillen, whose partner, Buddy Parker, represented one of the coconspirators who pled guilty and was to testify against Campbell, but the Eleventh Circuit found the district court did not abuse its discretion in doing so.)

Miracle of Sound: Wheatley's Song (Portal 2)
Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 6 NEXT
That's because, like Batman is Bruce Wayne... So Miracle of Sound is secretly mild mannered musician Gavin Dunne!!
Ninja'd there :P My bad.
In 2 weeks
Both are pretty mild mannered to be honest :D
Which is the genius of the disguise, really. If you think about it... :D
Better than the ending theme, IMO. Nice one Miracle!
This song is false...No wait, True it's very true. Except, it doesn't go on forever; It seems like this song could be 30min longer. Maybe mash some other songs together with it. Name it after something majestic like a swan,a swan-song; Wheatley's super swan-song, that would just be beautiful. It's really still brilliant as it is though.
ya you clearly didn't get the fact that Weatly WAS PROGRAMED to be a Moron he actual is a true moron and hes not holding the place together when you put him in change of it the place starts falling apart
This song is supposed to be sung by Wheatley. He thinks that he's very important, and doesn't know how much of a moron he really is.
Meh. I never liked Ricky Gervais in the Office, and for me; Steven Merchant was the only bad thing about Portal 2. That style of comedy just really grates for me.
That's the entire point of the song, actually.
I had this song stuck in my head all day when I was in school yesterday, thanks.
Meh, ur songs are getting little bit too happy for me. Very nice, but not for me.
They're not all happy... lol
Nice, very nice in fact. I'm not sure it could get any nicer. At least I don't think it can.
Before i listened to it, i read the lyrics (like i always do) and i actually thought you'd be rapping this...
Seriously guys, go back, read the lyrics, but imagine rap...
It kinda fits o.O
But still awesome, keep it up! =D
Wheatley could comprehend a paradox while most other A.I.'s couldn't. So as far as I know, he's the smarter one.
What IS a "frosted balloon"? I realize it's an insult...But what does it mean?
I think the best part was the spoiler warning. The song itself was meh in my opinion
'Fostered balloon'.
Fostered: Adopted, without parents and taken in voluntarily by another entity or foster parent
Balloon: fat person
If you play the game, you'll understand :)
that was amazing! It had a catchy beat and everything!
one unrelated question though, do you do all the music yourself or do you have a band that helps out?
All me, I don't like working with other musicians!
cant wait for you to put his one on itunes so i can get it!!! loved it
Personally I didn't like this one as much. The words were well written but this felt to much like a lullaby. I would have gone for a more robotic computer sound just because its Portal. Still think you are better then a vast majority of what I hear nowadays.
When do you put "Fire In Your Hole" on bandcamp? it's been 2 weeks :P
I can't stop listening to this song! I must have watched it from :41 to the end about 25-30 times now. I love this song!
Best one so far :)
The melody reminds me VERY much of a Scorpions song. Skywriter:
The space between here and the moon isn't infinite unless you include laterally. Otherwise, it's a set distance. Duh.
Love it. Want it. How do I get it?
That's the whole point. Duh.
I know, I was going along with it :D
Only Wheatley knows for sure!
Well he DOES have an IQ of the infinite space between the earth and the moon... ;D
I thought the accent was fine, it fit with wheatley. But since you RUINED THE HARRY POTTER SERIES FOR ME...could you put the other version up for fun? and a spoiler or clue what your next song is going to be. Thanks
I don't know why I spent so long before giving this series a try. Its brilliant! Keep it up!
You can blame Mr Pitts for that, lol. Sorry.
Here's a hint about the next one for you... it's about someone contemplating their own sanity.
Thank you :)

- Jolt Ponte Knit Skinny Pants: My mother gave me these skinny pants for Christmas, and so far they are some of my favorites. I love stretchy fabrics that are also not too tight, so when you're having a fat day, they still fit. lol
- NBC's Grimm: I've enjoyed this tv show for a while, but got really behind on this season. I finally got around to catching up on this season via Hulu Plus, and I am enjoying it a lot.
- Dole Pineapple Tidbits: I am a huge fan of these, especially frozen. I am in love with frozen fruits right now, so these are super tasty frozen.
- Hulu Plus for ipad: As I said for #3, Hulu Plus has allowed me to go back and re-watch shows that are currently still playing, unlike Netflix- which is pretty much a season behind on most things. So check it out!
Thanks for stopping by. I will be away on vacation going to a Scrapbooking crop with my mom this weekend. Yay! Mini getaway!
Have a great day!

Indians' Chris Perez Gets in Trouble for Tweet
It looks like Chris Perez is the lucky recipient of this season's first fine handed out under Major League Baseball's new social media policy. Well done, sir.
The Cleveland Indians right-hander has to dish out $750 (umm... that's like you or I being fined fifty cents) for an "inappropriate" tweet last Saturday night after a heated game with the Kansas City Royals. Yes, the same game in which Jeanmar Gomez, Jack Hannahan, and Manny Acta were thrown out of.
Joe Garagiola Jr., MLB's Dean of Discipline, claimed in a letter to Perez that he "demonstrated a reckless disregard for the players on both clubs." We'll just tell you what was tweeted since it has since been unfortunately deleted:
"Huge team win tonight, time for a sweep of the Royals. It's not 'Our Time,' it's TribeTime. P.S. You hit us, we hit you. Period."
Perez cited the First Amendment and his right to freedom of speech as an American when faced with the fine. Ah, Chris, that is an excellent rebuttal... but it does not help your teammate Jeanmar's appeal case. It was supposed to be an accident, remember?

A Matter of Taste?
The range & types of food we eat is truly staggering. Our pantries & refrigerators are full of foods that our pets & other animals can't, don't or won't eat. We evolved from eating small prey or scavenging our protein & gathering what fruits & berries we could to become the ultimate omnivores we are today.
From this has grown a vast food industry that seeks people with finely tuned taste buds and can identify foods that stand out above the others.

My blog used to be called Nappy Valley. But now I've moved to the dizzy heights of Crystal Palace (via a spell as an expat on Long Island, New York). And my Littleboys are long out of nappies.
Wednesday, 30 January 2013
The Photo Gallery: Bond
Everything they do, they do it together.
They are each other's best friend. If one goes on a playdate, the other wants to come. If one has a day off school ill, the other is miserable. When I ask them who they play with at recess at school, they answer that they play with each other.
They are not twins, but 19 months apart. They are not identical in character, far from it; Littleboy 1 is energetic, enthusiastic and tends toward the manic while his brother is quieter, thoughtful and goes at his own (often frustrating to us) pace. But, like all the best couples, their differences complement each other perfectly. They have a very special bond.
Which is why I'm concerned that they might not be going to the same school in England. Not at first, anyway. Their father says they will just "have to deal with it". And I guess that's all part of growing up. Whatever, I hope they will still have that unbreakable fraternal bond in years to come.
This post is part of the Photo Gallery at Sticky Fingers; theme this week is "Bond". The photo was taken last weekend, when ice covered the beach and bay opposite our house; a truly beautiful sight.

Aw - that's lovely. Funny, you and I are in similar boats - the school that is most likely for our Boys when we get home will be the same but they won't be on the same sites, so they won't see each other at all. Despite that though, I think they will be fine with the initial adjustment because whatever else, out of school, they will have each other. x

Hmmm...good luck with that. Me and my older sister are 16 mnths apart. And when we (prob mostly me) were seperated in grade 7 cause grade 8 was a bus ride away (we grew up practically next door to an elementary school and a high school except for gr 8) I was miserable for two years until we were in the same school again. I'm 56 and can still remember the terrified mornings that I had to get to school on my own...and she wasn't around to insert myself into groups of her friends. It was torture. I had to make my own friends ...horrors. I started smoking in gr 8 just to fit in with all the other loosers.

That's frustrating. The nieces are in separate schools right now. But if the schedules synch up, they can still have most of their afterschool time together still, and they wouldn't be in the same class anyway, right?

I think it's pretty common for one's relationship with one's siblings to wax and wane (always wanted to use that in conversation) over time.
Hopefully whatever circumstances throw at them they'll end up back together again.
ps what were they doing with that iceberg?!

Iota - I know, great minds think alike!
Clare - I agree. We just found out LB2 can go to the same school a year later, so that's good.
Fifty - that sounds awful, you poor thing. I think it's always hard when you are close to a sibling. But I'm hoping my boys are too young to start smoking!
Conuly - you're right, and it turns out they can go to the same school in 2014 anyway, so I am feeling better about it.
planB - boys stuff! They just love breaking pieces of ice...

Our 2 are 13 months apart and I hope they have a bond like this when they are a bit older. I grew up as one of five so always hoped my kids would have siblings to play with also.

Mine are not close in age (3 years) so maybe the dynamics are different, but for us, it was good when they were finally in different schools and Son#2 could get out a bit from his big brother's shadow. A real eye-opener for us was when he started school here in Seoul(#1 had left for Uni) - the first school he'd ever been to where he was not already known as 'Son#1's little brother' - and really has come into his own. I guess all this is just to say - it may be a bit of an adjustment, but there are good and bad aspects to all the changes - and your boys will have plenty to talk about and share when they get home in the afternoon!
Glad to see you posting. Think of you often (as I struggle with my own back issues) and hope things are looking up. x

1 Thessalonians 5:4-11 MESSAGE Bible But friends, you're not in the dark, so how could you be taken off guard by any of this? You're sons of Light, daughters of Day. We live under wide open skies and know where we stand. So let's not sleepwalk through life like those others. Let's keep our eyes open and be smart. People sleep at night and get drunk at night. But not us! Since we're creatures of Day, let's act like it. Walk out into the daylight sober, dressed up in faith, love, and the hope of salvation. God didn't set us up for an angry rejection but for salvation by our Master, Jesus Christ. He died for us, a death that triggered life. Whether we're awake with the living or asleep with the dead, we're alive with him! So speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you'll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind. I know you're already doing this; just keep on doing it.
The times that we live in, if not approached in light of the Word of God, will have an opportunity to bring in a spirit of fear that we must guard our hearts against. We live in uncertain times, but for the believer in Christ Jesus they are exciting times. Every day that we live moves us one more day towards the coming of the Lord Jesus! How exciting is that! But our attitude towards world events and the era in which we live will determine how we walk and talk in these last days. It is important that we look forward to the coming of the Lord with faith and expectancy. He promised to return for us and He will keep His word. THE MESSAGE Bible's introduction to the books of 1 & 2 Thessalonians says this:
"The Christian faith had always been characterized by a strong and focused sense of future, with belief in the Second Coming of Jesus as the most distinctive detail. From the day Jesus ascended into heaven, his followers lived in expectancy of his return. He told them he was coming back. They believed he was coming back. They continue to believe it. For Christians, it is the most important thing to know and believe about the future.
"The practical effect of this belief is to charge each moment of the present with hope. For if the future is dominated by the coming again of Jesus, there is little room left on the screen for projecting our anxieties and fantasies. It takes the clutter out of our lives. We're far more free to respond spontaneously to the freedom of God.
"All the same, the belief can be misconceived so that it results in paralyzing fear for some, shiftless indolence in others. Paul's two letters to the Christians in Thessalonica, among much else, correct such debilitating misconceptions, prodding us to continue to live forward in taut and joyful expectancy for what God will do next in Jesus."
Do you have a strong and focused sense of future, charged by faith, love and an expectancy of His return? Or do you fear what might take place tomorrow or in the future that lies ahead of you?
1 Thessalonians 5:24 MESSAGE The One who called you is completely dependable. If he said it, he'll do it!
God is not slack concerning His promises, what He has said He will do! But our walk through life is to be a walk of faith. That means that we might see the larger picture of what is going to happen, but the everyday happenings are hidden from our view so that we must trust Him to lead us through them. Our walk of faith is not a walk of always seeing and knowing what lies ahead; it is a walk that trusts God to reveal our path as we walk it out. We are to focus our eyes on Jesus and walk as He directs us through every day, encouraging one another, loving both the unsaved and the saved and sharing the expectancy of His arrival with all around us.
2 Peter 3:13-15 Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, with out spot and blameless; and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation—as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,
We are supposed to be looking forward to the promise of the new heavens and new earth that await us at His return. We have the joy of His salvation within us! He has gone ahead of us to prepare a place for us! What joy it will be when we see Him again, knowing that the life that we have lived here on earth will no longer have a hold on us. We will be totally free to experience our eternity with Him. For believers, we have a hope and a future that is good, but for unbelievers there is no hope and no future. Ephesians 2:12 says that they are "without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and with God in the world." The thing that we are to do as we await the return of our Lord and Savior is to tell the lost about the future that awaits both us us; ours with promise of eternal life with Jesus, theirs without hope of a future with Him. We are to be about our Father's business!
Friends, which camp are you living in today? Are you in the fellowship of the saved, the redeemed, those who look forward to the coming of the Lord with great expectation of good? Or do you live in the land of darkness, the place where there is no hope and no future expectation of good? The decision to change camps is yours. All you have to do is call upon the name of the Lord and you will be saved. You can change residences by simply praying and asking Jesus into your heart, believing that He is the Christ, the Messiah and that He died for you personally, so that you might have eternal life with Him in the Presence of the Father. Won't you pray that prayer today so you can know for sure that your salvation is secure in Christ Jesus?
Father, I thank You for so great a salvation that reaches down to the lost and dying and pulls them out of the muck and mire of darkness and sets their feet on the solid rock of Your love. Father, I pray today that those who read this blog will be encouraged to place their faith and trust in you, both those who already know you and those who don't. Father, today is the day of salvation! Today it is not too late for them to come to You to receive eternal life. But tomorrow might be too late. I pray that they will not enter into eternity without You. I thank You for delaying Your coming to give as many as possible the opportunity to come into the fold; into Your family. I ask that You would prepare hearts to receive You today, Lord Jesus. Knock on their heart's doors and soften them to receive you. Father, I ask You to cause those who do know You to look at the future with great expectancy of the good things that await them. Drive fear far from them and cause faith to arise with in them. Thank You, Father, for Your word and how You direct us by Your Spirit to those scriptures that will fill our hearts with hope. Thank You, Lord, for Your precious Spirit that fills us within with faith, love, and hope. To You be the glory for what You are doing in our hears and lives. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

What do I need to get into all grain brewing from extract brewing?
It's an exciting time when a brewer decides to switch from extract to all-grain brewing. Brewers just make wort while yeast actually make the beer and all-grain brewing allows you to produce your own wort instead of just boiling up malt syrups. Some beers will turn out much better and you can actually design your own recipe based on what you want it to taste like instead of what the malt syrups taste like. the main change that will stick out to many is that you need to boil 5-6 gallons, instead of 2-3 gallons, so that is the main equipment change that is required. All of your fermenting equipment remain the same but you will need some additional equipment to perform the mash, sparge, and boil. Consider checking out our all-grain equipment starter kits or even the all-in-one advanced systems, but the basics of a traditional method are covered here.
A traditional set up requires:
- 8 gallon Boil kettle, or larger
- A mash tun, 7/10 gallon cooler or kettle with ball valve
- A hot liquor tank, 7/10 gallon cooler or kettle with ball valve
- False bottom for mash tun
- High temp tubing for transfers
- Heat source like a propane burner
- A sparge arm is used to divert the sprage water over the mash tun, so you are not channeling a direct stream into the mash as you rinse, or sparge, the grains. You can perform a batch sparge or use something simple like a sprage sprayer.
- A pump is a tool of convenience which will make your brew day quicker and easier. No one wants to pick up a heavy cooler/kettle full of hot liquid.
- A propane burner is optional but will make your brew day much faster than your stove top. Drastically cut down your time spent heating water to make your all grain brew day 4-5 hours instead of 6-7 at minimum on your stove top. There are many options for heat sources but the best option has long been the propane burner.
