I was diagnosed with CFS/ME two years ago and have been to several specialists but nothing has worked so far. I have only found minimal relief for my symptoms which are extreme fatigue, nausea, brain fog, body aches and blood pressure issues. I have been taking this kit for only two weeks but I feel at least 30% better already. I can go for a walk which I couldn't before and I am able to think much more clearly. I'm excited about the progress and very hopeful.
I wanted to give some time before reviewing this to make sure it works. I was very skeptical because I don't really believe in supplements but I read the science behind this technology and decided to give it a go. I used to get recurring sinus infections, flus, colds, joint pain and so on. Everyone always told me it's normal at my age (I'm 65) but I have seen other people that are my age and are healthy so I figured there must be something you can do to get better. After taking this kit for a month I noticed better energy, my skin had better elasticity and I just felt better and happier. But after 6-8 months the results were very noticeable. I never got sick again, even during the winter. I feel great and full of energy. I keep on getting calls from my doctors asking where I am and that I should come in for a checkup (I used to be quite sick all the time) but I feel wonderful. I know it's not the cheapest supplement out there but it's the only thing that worked for me. Now I budget it in and make sure it don't run out. I had so many vacations and family gatherings/holidays that were ruined by sickness and I am just happy I found something that allows me to enjoy life again. At my age I believe these are the things that count.
I have been taking this kit for 2 months now. I noticed an incredible improvement in my pain levels after 2 weeks. I suffered from Fibromyalgia for over a decade and took all possible medications. Nothing really helped so I stopped everything and gave this a go. I am now pain-free which is something I didn't even know anymore. Very pleased with it.
Since taking these products, specifically Shield, Boost, and Pain Relief, I've noticed such an improvement in my health. Most recently, I took a flight where my neighbor was coughing and sneezing the entire trip. On my return flight, weather delays turned my 4-hour trip into a 12 hour sojourn at Austin-Bergstrom airport. I was terribly tired and worn down. Feeling a bronchitis coming on, I took an extra tablespoon of Shield and Boost for a couple of days. I never descended into the depths of that miserable cold! It's a week later and not a symptom in sight. That's not the only reason I believe in the products. I have also suffered from knee pain for many years. Many years ago, I even had surgery for my right knee. The MRI was non-conclusive but I was looking for relief. There was not a marked improvement in the results of the arthroscopy. I continued to be active despite my discomfort and some swelling, but sometimes it got to be too painful and I'd have to stop. Taking these products, I recently completed a 10-mile run and have done several runs and sprint triathlons-all pain free! I'm not fast but enjoy setting personal goals and know the importance of exercise. I saw my parents as they aged with all their pills for various serious ailments. I would like to stave off the ravages of time for as long as possible and enjoy good health while I can. Immunize Labs' products are helping me to do just that!
I am the co-owner of The UPS Store, Greenwich, CT: In less than a month I noticed a decrease in joint pain in both my hip and knee. In 2 months I realized I had no pain at all. In the gym I am now able to use all the machines, pain free, and my strength has increased to where it was 10 years ago. immunizeLABS's products reduce inflammation and increase endurance, a perfect combo for healthy aging or peak performance in the gym.

By Architect Don Bunting
I find myself falling back on the above rhetorical response more and more as current events unfold.
Whether it is national or local politics, news reports, or recent happenings in our own industry, truth, or even facts seem harder and harder to find.
Political commentator and writer Daniel Moynihan said: "Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not to their own facts."
Sadly, this seems to have passed by our national and local leaders and their growing cohort of bureaucrats and fellow travellers.
Really? Yes, really.
James Comey, head of the FBI until Trump got him in his sights, called it "confirmation bias — to crave information consistent with what we already believe". Ring any bells?
A recent article in The New Zealand Herald newspaper talked about what was described as "white noise".
This was an attempt to explain the problem politicians and others have because they tend to hear from only the most outspoken and confident group in society — generally white and middle-aged.
Unfortunately, this one voice is often accepted without any attempt to dig into what those who remain silent want and need.
As Comey said, it's about being happy with information consistent with your own beliefs.
Why does it take so long?
I have been watching with growing despair as Auckland Council's project to upgrade Franklin Road in Freemans Bay moves blithely into its third year. Really?
Yes, really, and with the greatest respect to our dauntless cyclists, the work is being done to create cycle lanes down each side of the road, reducing traffic flows on this busy street to one lane each way. Really?
A cycle lane up and down a relatively steep street dappled summer and winter by overhanging trees? Plus the added danger of large, slippery leaves on the surface during autumn.
Well done Auckland Transport. Another accident waiting to happen.
Is it my imagination, or does construction take much longer than it once did?
I've been watching neighbours struggling for more than a year to get their contractors to build what is a mere 12 metre-long by three metre-high retaining wall behind their house.
And living in an older area where renovation projects are always on the go, I despair for the home owners having to wait far too long to get relatively modest projects completed.
Maybe Health and Safety has something to do with it? Yes, really.
Bullshit jobs
This is the title of a new book by anthropologist David Graeber, who notes that futurists in the early 20th Century prophesied that technology would see us working 15 hours a week before heading home in our flying cars.
Instead, we are all working longer hours and for more years, with no sign of any flying cars. And right across the developed world, three quarters of the jobs are now in human resources, public relations, finance or administration, many of which don't seem to contribute anything to society. Bullshit jobs.
Worse still, it is the productive jobs and those that clearly add value — teaching, nursing, drain unblockers, cleaners and other such jobs — that are under-valued and receive the least reward. Really.
Think small
I always thought the secret to political survival was to under-promise and over-deliver.
This seems lost on our current government who continue to make wild and optimistic statements about change and what they see as progress.
For example, Kiwibuild — great name but poorly targeted — was always going to be a pig that failed to fly.
The answer is to think small — specifically, target struggling first home buyers looking for a truly affordable entry into the housing market.
Think 90sq m to 100sq m, single-storey, pitched roof, two-bedroom, stand-alone starter homes, backed by a government-financed mortgage scheme and protected by restrictions on selling within five years.
Visit any recent subdivision and see that the market is currently providing the opposite. Why? Because big houses provide the biggest and most assured profits.
It's not rocket science, but it seems to be beyond the abilities of our current politicians and our industry organisations to change this mindset.
Someone should be showing some leadership and telling our industry what all levels of the market need and how to achieve it.
A question
Why can industry produce beautifully constructed pieces of high-tech machinery — the modern car — in a less than a day, but it takes months, sometimes years, to build a house?
And with no real guarantee that it won't leak or break down in some way.
Imagine what a furore there would be if our cars were only as well and efficiently built as our houses?
What if you could buy a house that was as sleek, exciting and reliable as a Toyota or even a Mercedes? It's not an impossible dream.
Back in the 1960s a group of Auckland architects came up with a scheme to produce modular, fibreglass houses, fully factory-constructed, and with the individual and easily transportable units bolted together on site.
I guess it ended up in the same place as the flying car. Too futuristic, too soon, and too expensive at the time. And too much buyer resistance because of the likely sameness of appearance. Instead, what did we end up with?
As Pete Seegar sang: Houses made of ticky tacky and they all look just the same. Really.

First I want to thank all of you for being patient the last 4 weeks. We were on vacation and even though some hotels had wifi, mostly it was too slow or poor to use long enough to write anything. We are now home, so I will get back to blogging.
TONIGHT I just want to mention that Saturday the 9th was the feast day of Saint Benedicta. She was important because:
"Born in 1891, Edith Stein grew up in a German Jewish household, became an atheist at the age of fourteen, and converted to Catholicism during her philosophic studies. At the age of forty-two, she entered the Carmelites as Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. At her profession in 1938, in the face of growing German anti-Semitism, she told her prioress: "Human action can not help us but only the sufferings of Christ. My aspiration is to share them." In 1942, the Gestapo apprehended Theresa at the Carmel in Echt, Holland. Seven days later she perished in the gas chamber at Auschwitz. Saint John Paul II canonized her in 1998 as a "martyr for love.." He meant of Christ, I believe.
This story is important because to me it means that "WITH GRACE FROM GOD" A person can be transformed from a non believer or atheist to a Christian. It is only with that grace that the conversion can happen. Therefore, we should pray for those we know do not or may not believe that God will give them the Grace to KNOW HIM, LOVE HIM, AND SERVE HIM SO THAT THEY MAY BE IN HEAVEN WITH HIM. This is, of course, the reason he made us in the first place.
PRAYER: GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB, you sent your Son among us to redeem the people of the promise and the people who knew not your promises. Through the witness and prayer of Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, bring all men and women to the joy of your kingdom, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

text: Joseph von Benedikt - January 04, 2011 Hornady 120-Grain GMX Load By Joseph von Benedikt Though not a follower of the 6.5mm cartridge cult, I have recently felt symptoms of the addiction that draws shooters into its fold, especially since Hornady began producing its revolutionary new Superformance ammo in 6.5 Creedmoor.The 129-grain SST load was the first bullet introduced in the company's Superformance line and quickly proved both accurate and effective on game. Recently, Hornady added its homogenous 120-grain GMX (Guilding Metal Expanding) bullet, and I was lucky enough to try it out in the field. The GMX load exits the 26-inch barrels of the various Ruger Hawkeye rifles we shot at right around 3,100 fps and grouped fairly well out of the loaner rifle I had on the hunt. Even off of a relatively primitive bench, I was able to keep three-shot groups hovering around 1 inch. I hunted axis deer in Texas's Hill Country, and though these deer are an exotic and are often viewed as easy to hunt, these inhabited some very broken, canyon-cut, thickly forested country. In fact, hunting them reminded me of elk hunting in my native southern Utah. When my chance came, it was at 270-plus yards, and as the trigger broke, I knew I'd screwed up: I'd been holding into a persistent wind and my crosshairs moved slightly too far. I hit the big axis too far back. But even though I hadn't done my part perfectly, the bullet did, keeping the axis from going far until I was able to move in for a finishing shot.I examined close to a dozen other animals on that trip, all of which had been taken with the new 120-grain GMX load. I was amazed at the consistently dramatic damage in the wound channels. Shots were taken from short range to over 300 yards, and though not extreme, the distance did not seem to make a difference in the terminal performance. Though many would consider it light for game larger than deer, I wouldn't hesitate to hunt elk with the load. It's accurate, shoots very flat, and hits like a diminutive freight train.

Monday memories
Such an amazing moment in time.
We were blessed with grandsons in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
And in 2014, we were blessed with two granddaughters…only a month apart.
What a joy to hold those infants together.
And how fun that they are all within minutes of each other.
Cousins. Growing up together. Oh, the memories they will have…
(And how great is it that we can visit them all in just one location?! asked the spoiled Grammy)
Currently there are "4 comments" on this Article:
One of my favorite sayings is "Grandma's house – where cousins go to become friends." I think you have some really fun times ahead with those five!
Truly a blessing! My husband and I have 3 granddaughters and the fourth one on the way. 🙂

On 20 August 2018, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Orphan Drug Designation to ASLAN003, a potent inhibitor of human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).1
DHODH is an essential enzyme of de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis of DNA and RNA. David Skyes et al. have shown in a study that the inhibition of DHODH enables myeloid differentiation in human and mouse AML models.2 ASLAN003 is an orally active, potent inhibitor of DHODH, which have been shown to have the ability to differentiate AML blast cells into granulocytes in a variety of AML cell lines that do not respond to ATRA.
A phase IIa dose optimization study (NCT03451084), assessing the safety and efficacy of ASLAN003 as monotherapy in patients with AML is currently ongoing. The primary objective of the study is overall complete remission. The secondary objectives are the incidence of complete remission, relapse-free survival, clinical benefit rate and tumor percentage change.

Good healthcare apps treat me as me.
Harry Reynolds, Director of Health Industry Transformation for IBM, joined Pat Salber, MD (@docweighsin) at the 2014 mHealth Summit in Washington DC to talk about "what makes a good app." You have to first and foremost design the app for people, not patients or members of health plans, because the folks who use them are parents, parents, children, consumers and so forth. They are going to compare their health apps to apps they use in the rest of their lives. They have to be straight-forward, five-star,and stable. They also have to be empowering, engaging, and trustworthy. People will hold healthcare apps to the standards of apps from other industries. It's a high bar.
Harry says app developers should ask themselves: "Is it relevant? Is it easy to use? Is it related to me? And, most important, is it related to who I am in healthcare?
There's a lot of data about individuals in the health care system: doctors know some things, payers know some things, and there are many other sources of data and analytics. Are they included in the app? "There are many apps out there, but if they are not connected to data about me and don't help me, then they are just a transaction and are not a part of my daily life…not relevant daily and not something that I am going to use to change my life."

Here's what you can expect now that the FCC has killed net neutrality
The Federal Communications Commission voted 3-2 Thursday toscrap all of its existing net-neutrality rules.
FCC chairman Ajit Pai has never wavered fromhis deep distaste for therules adopted in 2015 that ban internet providers from blocking or slowing legal sites and forbid them from charging sites for priority delivery of their data.
Twitter violently lashes out against FCC chair after net neutrality vote:
See Gallery
His two Republican colleagues Mike O'Rielly and Brendan Carr agree with him, leaving Democratic commissioners Mignon Clyburn and Jessica Rosenworcel on the losing end.
So if you don't likePai's plan, it's too late to expect comments to the FCC to stop this. The chairman is so confident in his cause that he used his speech at the FCC Chairman's dinner in Washington last Thursday tojoke that, yes, he really was a Manchurian candidate for his former employer Verizon (VZ). (Verizon's media division,Oath, includes Yahoo Finance.)
But what happens next may not go according to Pai's script. Or yours.
It's lawsuit time
Over the last decade of net-neutrality politics, only one group has consistently done well: telecom lawyers.
The FCC's 2015 vote to put internet providers back under the same "telecommunications services" regulatory framework as phone companies appeared to have ended that legal trench warfare. The "Title II" rules that Pai calls "1930s-style"gave the FCC clear authority to create net-neutrality protections. Prior to that, attempts to craft weaker net-neutrality ruleslost in court when judges found no solid legal foundation.
But Pai's U-turn now invites challenges from advocates of the current rules. They can point to a law called theAdministrative Procedure Act, which says an agency like the FCC can't be arbitrary or capricious — meaning that the FCC of 2017 will have to explain why it disagrees so completely with the FCC of 2015.
"I think you'll see public interest groups, trade associations and small and mid-sized tech companies filing the petitions for review," predictedGigi Sohn, who served as counselor forPai's predecessor Tom Wheeler.
Congress could also vote to stop this. But while polls show people hate this repeal — 83% opposed it in a new University of Maryland survey that took care to present Pai's logic — Republican members have yet to show serious opposition.
Don't expect any paid-prioritization deals anytime soon
But even if the FCC swiftly wins any court challenge, internet providers probably won't block your favorite sites or demand they pay for fast-lane service. Why? Because the business model for that behavior seems doubtful.
"The major providers out there are smart enough to know not to get between their customers and their TV," T-Mobile (TMUS) chief operating officer Mike Sievert said during a conference call after that carrier announced its plans tolaunch an online video service in 2018. "We're not worried that we're going to face throttling or prioritization issues."
A critic of the current net-neutrality rules agreed, saying nobody needs priority delivery badly enough to pay for it.
"It's going to take quite a while,"economistHal Singer said. "You need a market for this stuff" — as in, an application that could work dramatically better with paid prioritization, such as live virtual reality. He rates the odds of such a deal happening in the next year at zero.
You could, however, see those abound once5G wireless comes around in another two or three years. Asanalyst Peter Rysavy wrote in an April, 5G's near-real-time responsiveness allows for use cases in which the developers of critical apps like autonomous-vehicle software would want to pay for priority handling.
Other kinds of mischief will be harder to see
Under Pai's proposal, internet providers would be free to block, slow or surcharge sites as long as they said so upfront. If one went beyond that disclosure, theFederal Trade Commission could take action against the deceptive conduct — or against cases in which an internet provider abused its power to suppress a competing service.
But Pai would not make ISPs disclose these details in any standard format; thenutrition-label-style proposal of his predecessor Tom Wheeler is gone. An ISP wouldn't even have to post the disclosure at its own site, instead letting the FCC publish it.
The FTC, meanwhile, could only take action after a violation had occurred. And its actions can take time: Itssettlement with Vizio over allegations that it snooped on TV customers' viewing habits landed three years after that alleged conduct began. The case the FTC opened against AT&T (T) forthrottling the connections of wireless subscribers on its old unlimited plan starting in 2011 remainsmired in litigation — whichcould wind up gutting the FTC's oversight.
All this has led one tech investor who seemed less concerned about a net-neutrality rollbackwhen it didn't involve zeroing out the rules to worry about the lack of clarity startups might now face.
"My biggest worry if the FCC scraps all of the rules is that we enter an extended period of uncertainty," saidProof co-founder John Backus. "We want to be able to understand the risk we are taking on, and weigh it against the possible upside. So the uncertainty here is a penalty to bandwidth-hungry startups."

Dog Ear Infections – Vet Advice
If your dog often scratches its ears, shakes
its head or just generally seems to be irritated with its ears – chances are it has an ear
infection. The good news is that ear infections can be
easily treated and cured. But Laura Smith one of the vets at Abbey House Veterinary
Hospital advises you get your dog checked out as soon as possible. It's very important to look after your dog's
ears. It's really important to get them used to having their ears cleaned from being a
puppy, because a lot of dogs that we see are very head shy and don't like you looking in
their ears. If a dog has recurring ear infections, then the canal get very narrowed and then
sometimes it's irreversible and may even go on and have surgery to open up that canal,
which can be very painful and very costly. Ear infections can be caused by mites, bacterial
infections, food allergies or poor dog hygiene. Dogs with floppy ears are especially susceptible
because their ear lobes cover their ear canal resulting in dark warm moist places where
bacteria can thrive. This morning owner Sue has brought in her
five year old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Molly who is prone to having ear infections. She's been crying since Friday. So there's
something wrong with her. But she's eating and walking okay, so I don't think it's her
feet, so – and I've brought here because I think it's her ear, because she's got dirty
ears because they're all covered up. Spaniels ears are notorious for getting ear infections.
She has got a lot of fur in her ears, she's been before about her ears and they said she's
got a lot of fur in them, inside them, and that collects dirt. It's important to regularly check the health
of your dog's ears. Normal ear wax excreted by the ear is odour free. If it smells then
chances are there's an infection. They're quite thickened, aren't they, her
ears? Has she always had problems with her ears? Yeah, it's not new.
Does she let you clean them? Are you putting anything in them at the moment? I've been cleaning them with cotton buds. Right, okay. And what is it you're getting
out of them? Is it just this yellow discharge? Yeah. Oh, they're very itchy. Look at that. Oh good
girl, very, very itchy. If your dog has very hairy ears we recommend
that if they go to the groomer's they have their ears plucked to make sure there's not
a lot of hair in there that can trap any wax or infection. If your dog doesn"t got to
a groomer's then contact your vets and they can probably do it for you. We also recommend
cleaning your dog's ears with a veterinary product every couple of weeks or so any wax
that's in there out, just to make sure that there's no risk of them getting any ear problems. Right, will she let me have a little look
down those, do you think. Maybe. Right. If they are too sore for her we won't
put it down too tight. Good girl. Oh, it's okay. Good girl. Oh dear me, good girl. Very,
very itchy. Good girl. She's very red down both of the canals and they're quite narrowed
as well. Can we just turn her round and have a look in the other ear? Oh, dear, some on.
Let's have a look in this side. So, so, good, stay. Oh I know. Good, Molly Shh, it's alright.
Oh that one hurts doesn't it? Oh dear, that's the one that hurts. Oh. See, I think it is
quire sore because when I'm rubbing like this she does quite like that. Oh dear me.
With regards to her ears, what cleaning product do you have at the moment? Do you have an
ear cleaner for her? I had some that I bought from the pet shop. Right. Okay. What we'll need to do is start
her off with an ear cleaner. So kind of it's got the nozzle and put that into her ear and
then massage down, and then with some cotton wool just try and take out all of the waxy
debris that you can see there and I'll pop you out some eardrops as well. And the eardrops
will be twice a day and so after you've cleaned her ears in the morning, then wait about 20
minutes and then put the ear drops in, so you're putting the ear drops into quite a
clean ear. Are they like antibiotics? Yeah, they'll be antibiotic eardrops. And
use those for about a week and then can we have another look at her just to have a look
down those canals and see how they're getting on. Sometimes if they're not really improving,
if the canal's really narrowed, we actually have to have them in and flush those ears
out just to get all of the detritus that's in there. Right, then, I'll pop you on the
medication for her now and if we can see her in about a week's time to see how sh'�s
getting on. Alright then. Good girl. Let's pop you down. Come on then. Don't jump. Fortunately for Molly the antibiotics cleared
up the ear infection and owner Sue says she's had no more problems since. The treatment will depend on what's caused
your dog's ear infection but be aware that some ear infections can be contagious so if
you have other dogs it's probably best to keep them apart until you've seen your vet.

text: 2014 Canard, E. F., et al. "Empirical Evaluation of Neutral Interactions in Host-Parasite Networks." American Naturalist. 183.4 (2014): 468–479. Résumé: While niche-based processes have been invoked extensively to explain the structure of interaction networks, recent studies propose that neutrality could also be of great importance. Under the neutral hypothesis, network structure would simply emerge from random encounters between individuals and thus would be directly linked to species abundance. We investigated the impact of species abundance distributions on qualitative and quantitative metrics of 113 host-parasite networks. We analyzed the concordance between neutral expectations and empirical observations at interaction, species, and network levels. We found that species abundance accurately predicts network metrics at all levels. Despite host-parasite systems being constrained by physiology and immunology, our results suggest that neutrality could also explain, at least partially, their structure. We hypothesize that trait matching would determine potential interactions between species, while abundance would determine their realization.

"Latitudinal mismatches between the components of mammal-flea interaction networks." Glob. Ecol. Biogeogr.. 21.7 (2012): 725–731. Résumé: Aim The large-scale description of ecosystem complexity, including the structure of interaction networks, has been largely overlooked although it is known to underpin species co-occurrences and their robustness to climatic or anthropogenic disturbances. Here, we investigated whether the various components of mammalflea interaction networks (richness of fleas, richness of mammals and the richness of mammalflea associations) are spatially congruent and follow the latitudinal diversity gradient (LDG). Location Sixteen regions, world-wide. Methods We first took into account the effect of area on diversity by determining the position of regions with respect to speciesarea relationships. We then investigated the spatial congruence between the regional richness of each component of mammalflea interaction networks as well as their latitudinal gradients. We further investigated patterns for fleahost associations by testing for relationships between mammalflea interaction richness and (1) flea niche breadth and (2) host carrying capacity. Results We report divergent LDGs for the different components of mammalflea interaction networks: our data agree with a canonical LDG for mammals, but reveal that the diversity of fleas and mammalflea associations do not follow such a classical gradient. Our results suggest that host carrying capacity is more likely than flea niche breadth to modulate the number of links in hostparasite interaction networks. Main conclusions The complex interplay between geographic variation in host diversity and both host and parasite traits can lead to unexpected spatial patterns such as the invalidation of expected parasites and links in hostparasite web LDGs. Beyond our focus on hostparasite interactions, our study is among the first in the emerging field of interaction network macroecology and paves the way for other components of ecological networks to be investigated across space and time.

We usually have a few of them on life's journey (isn't that profound!?) Getting married, having kids, first house (and usually first mortgage), first car, first kiss, first time your kid's ignore you completely, etc, etc, you know what I'm talking about.
I had a sort of a milestone recently, I discovered that I'm the youngest member of our modeling 'group' ! I turn 47 in a bit over a week and I'll be honest, I never expected to be the youngest member of anything ever again! It was a pleasant surprise, mind you the two guys who I thought were younger than me definately look like they have a lot less k's on the the clock!
I had another genuine milestone a few days ago, I submitted a DA to council for my first shed! A backyard haven, a retreat, a colourbond cave, manland (apparently-not real sure about the conclusions one could draw from referring to it as "manland"), what ever you call it, it's 48.75 sqm (7.5M x 6.5M) of space to build a layout in. Now unlike council who said "about 6 weeks" when I enquired how long should it take to be approved, just after asking me for $670 in lodgement fees, my good wife approved this after the first request with the only condition being that some of the 'under layout' space be used for general storage of stuff. I can live with that!
So now the saga starts. I don't imagine this will go smoothly, I live in a "bush fire prone area" which generated about another 5 pages of paperwork and want to build pretty well on the boundary because I have a small back yard. It's going to be interesting. I will keep you posted.
Future site of the Colourbond Cave !
A grand title for a small untidy desk in the spare room of a suburban home in Wollongong, NSW. The plan is to showcase some of my work, share pics of current and past projects, tips and techniques with other like minded modellers trying to recreate the motive power and rolling stock of our past and ever diminishing NSW rail system.
32 class update #1
Following on from the "marker light" post I actually got in a bit of work shop time today and fitted the marker lights and associated electrical conduit/junction box in 0.4 mm brass wire, the boiler handrail/smoke box brackets and the cab roof. The hand rail is formed from a single length of 0.5 wire and takes about 1/2 an hour of judicious bending to get it right. I actually got the bends in the right places the first time which is unusual - for me.
I also had a go at filing the marker light handles a bit smaller to get them in scale, but you would never notice!
The head light is in the milling shop getting bored out to accept a yellow gold LED from Gwydir Valley Models and should pretty much be the last visible part to go on. Uncharted territory from now on so it should be interesting. Any tips from anyone who has done this before would be much appreciated! The front buffers and coupling, painted separately, will come later after the buffer beam is painted red, this makes a huge difference to the appearance of this area on the finished product.
The whole loco was looking a bit ordinary as I had given it an overnight bath in white vinegar to arrest the corrosion being caused by the soldering process/flux. Using white vinegar neutralises the flux but leaves an inert, dark, kacky (?) film on the surface of the metals, so I have given it a clean up with a fibre glass burnishing brush (pen). These are and invaluable tool when working with white metal and brass and nothing else does a cleaning job like it. A spinning metal wire brush is, in my opinion, way to brutal when working with plug in detail parts. These are available from Casula Hobbies at Liverpool and Tom's Hobbies at West Ryde. Don't forget to buy some refills at the same time as they do a great job but don't last very long.

If you are starting your profession in any of these fields, it is necessary for you to create an online presence and build your reputation there too.
Plastic Surgery
There are thousands of plastic surgeons all over the world, and mostly, there are many in just one area. Thus, only the best stay in the competition. And the thing about plastic surgery is that most of the time, patients search far and wide to find the service they need. Therefore, creating a website makes things easier for both you and your patients. When they see you have a good reputation online, there is a higher tendency they will choose you.
The skin is a critical aspect for everyone. And for those seeking a dermatologist, they do not settle for one. They search for the best doctor near them so they can get the best service. Similar to plastic surgery, there are many dermatologists in one area. And the most effective means of winning over patients is to have an effective marketing and advertising campaign which you can go through many forms just like online.

How to Perform Oil Pulling in 3 Easy Steps
I'll admit, when I first heard about oil-pulling I thought it had something to do with your car, not a way to rid your body of toxins! This type of oral therapy may sound new to you, but it has been around for over 3,000 years. Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy for oral health. The idea is simple, place one tablespoon of oil in your mouth and swish it around for 20 minutes. The oil acts like a magnet, drawing and pulling microbes from your teeth and gums. What are some of the benefits of oil pulling? ♦ Clearer skin … [Read more...]

The RBSA Metering (RBSAM) is a subsidiary of the larger, regional RBSA Study. The Metering Study was designed to represent single-family houses across the Northwest as best as possible within the project constraints. Working within the feasible sample size, the design worked to optimize the location and variety of sites according to the following goals:
• Locate the metering group within the context of the RBSA study so the more intensive, but narrower, metering study can inform the results of the wider RBSA onsite surveys. • Provide a representative picture of energy end uses. • Provide a representative balance of heating system types (including heat pumps).

Letters are modules of language as independent units that unite to construct meaning. The chairs function as convenient places to sit but extend their purpose as conduits of meaning and methods of communication. Each chair carries the potential to become the entire alphabet, and with multiple chairs, vocabulary forms. The stools, while disconnected from each other, create one chair as the letters are connected by conceptual joinery to create dialogue through words. Choice becomes a centrality; the chairs can be rearranged into any word and any letter, opening the realm of communication and maximizing conversation. The chair's ability to collapse and become mobile allows for it to roll into a small transportable unit, demonstrating language's flexibility, its ability to spread and be silenced. The work on the wall highlights the typeface created by the chair, revealing the 26 letters of the English alphabet.from Parallels, Granoff Center for the Creative Arts, January 11 - February 16, 2019

How do you explain the magical taste of a feijoa? A strangely beautiful combination of guava, pineapple, mint and lemon, with a delicious sharp tartness tied in with a subtle fragrant sweetness. Its creamy pale green flesh is grainy and textured similar to a pear, although when perfectly ripe, it contains a soft jelly centre.
Come autumn, the fruit falls to the ground when ripe and at its fullest flavour. Feijoas are exceptionally excellent in a crumble or pie, although, I have to admit, I am quite excited about this simple autumn spiced milkshake!
You can find the recipe over on the Viva- The New Zealand Herald Website. Enjoy while the fejoa season lasts.

Apparently most people never finish or even play the campaign modes in Call of Duty games. While I admit I often don't finish them I never skip them entirely. I've always seen the campaign in games such as this to be the foundation of the world that the game creates. An example of this would be Halo, as it's expanded universe has gone far beyond the stories told within its campaigns, but they remain the heart of the experience. Even those who exclusively play the multiplayer modes are familiar with Halo's lore. Given the Call of Duty franchise has expanded into multiple variations each game has a campaign mode that must stand alone and is the only glimpse we have into the world of that game and the people who inhabit it.
With that philosophy in mind I always like to check out what every campaign has to offer. Regrettably, I missed out on last year's Advanced Warfare (I will undoubtedly get it to though as its story is built around a character portrayed by Kevin Spacey), but I have completed the campaign for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3. Since CoD is primarily an online multiplayer game I was surprised at just how fleshed out and polished the single player mode turned out to be.
Black Ops 3 seems to take it cues from Advanced Warfare and rival franchise Titanfall. Titanfall never managed to get a strong foothold and I firmly believe the lack of a single player campaign was a major factor in that, particularly given how strong its multiplayer was (and would be still were it not for the lack of players online). The future setting of Black Ops 3 allows for a great number of crazy technologies and settings. All the characters have DNI chips which essentially give them super powers and allow their superiors to watch their every move as well as extract memories from their heads. As should always be the case in any future setting there are robots everywhere. It's impossible not to enjoy taking down a few terminator style enemies.
There's plenty of conspiracies to unravel while taking down robots and running along walls and the story was interesting enough to hold my attention even if I did tend to lose track of the characters. Unfortunately, as is frustratingly the case with many FPS games, the main character is undefined and therefore uninteresting. I was half way through the game when I realized the voice of my character was Ben Browder whom I know and love from Farscape (a modern classic over the top sci-fi show from the early 2000s that I still rant about). I understand this is done so that the player can project his own personality onto the character, but this simply doesn't work. I'll use Halo as example again because it has tried it both ways. The Master Chief is a widely recognized character and while he may not have the depth of someone like Uncharted's Nathan Drake his personality is always present and helps pull the player in. Conversely, in the incredible campaign of Halo: Reach the main character is never even given a name and is ultimately forgettable. Perhaps a forgotten hero was what Bungie wanted, but his non existent personality keeps the experience from having the resonance of one of the Master Chief's adventures, despite arguably being the best campaign when it comes to purely to gameplay.
Other characters in Black Ops 3 are more memorable, the most notable being played by Christopher Meloni and Katee Sackhoff, the latter of whom seemed to be the only character who truly understood was at stake in the story. Her character would have benefited from more exposure I was left wanting to know more about her background. However, this game's focus is not the characters or even the story as much as it is about the setting and the setting is grand.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is the definition of a linear game and that's exactly why it succeeds. One cannot stray too far from the objective or the warning "return to battlefield" pops up and things start to break down. This is not a world created to casually explore, this is a war that must be fought now. Like its predecessors Black Ops 3 feels like a roller coaster. Get in and hold on. It's a rush from start to finish and when you're done the memory of story may fade, but the feeling of exhilaration lingers. This is what I look for in a CoD game and Black Ops 3 gave me exactly what I wanted, which is probably why I played the entirety of its surprisingly long campaign.
There are moments where enemies are everywhere, robots are marching in, giant mechs are jumping around the battlefield and the situation seems hopeless… and then I die. I died a lot. Fortunately, the situation was never truly hopeless and with a few tweaks to my strategy and a stronger focus any situation could be survived. As the game moves along the events become increasingly over the top. At one point I was buckling down to endure giant waves and moments later I was manning the turret as an AI controlled boat blasted through a chaotic mess of villains and debris. Moments such as this were an absolute blast.
There's a wide variety of weapons and character mods that can be earned and crafted. I didn't spend a lot of time at the crafting table though as I usually just wanted to get back to the action. Refining load-outs is something I'll spend more time with I get more involved in the multiplayer side of the game. I'm glad I started out with the campaign though as it offers an intense experience in a thrilling future setting. Playing the campaign mode makes the game feel real and the multiplayer experience even more enticing. There is a wealth of content in Black Ops 3 and having spent the bulk of my time so far with the campaign mode I've just scratched the surface of what the game has to offer. Obviously the primary reason to own the game remains the multiplayer, but the single player is a robust and thrilling component that is essential to getting the complete Call of Duty experience.

VoV 103: Progressive Form Validation & Instance Aware Vuex Modules with Matt Brophy —
MJS 011 My JS Story Valeri Karpov
My JS Story Valeri Karpov
Welcome to the 11th My JS Story! Today, Charles Max Wood welcomes Valeri Karpov. Valeri is a Platform Tech Lead at Booster Fuels, the author of Professional Angular JS and The 80/20 Guide to ES2015 Generators, and a blogger at codebarbarian.com. He is also the one who maintains mongoose JS. Stay tuned to My JS Story Valeri Karpov to learn more how he started coding and what he is currently up to!
Start of His Coding Journey
Just like how any kid of his age did, he got so fascinated with Pokémon. When he learned using the internet, he found out that it had a lot of Pokémon stuff in there. He then started to learn everything about the game such as stats, levels, and strategies. That interest led him to know about HTML, CSS, PHP, and a lot more. Valeri was around 9 or 10 when he got started with PHP and HTML. His parents bought him a book on HTML which he read from cover to cover. When he reached high school, he remembers participating in algorithms contest. In college, he then majored CS and realized he was going to be a nerd for life.
Jumping into JavaScript
He got into JavaScript when he did his very first startup called Scavenger in 2008, but now known as LevelUp. It's a mobile paper platform that was originally text message based. Before iPhone came into existence, they served as a mobile gaming company in the foot phone era. Since they needed to build out these Scavenger Hunts, they created a little web-based dashboard for it. This was his first non-trivial JavaScript experience. They used JavaScript because the other alternative Valeri only knew of was Java X and Swing, which were a lot worse. To hear the rest of My JS Story Valeri Karpov, download and listen to the entire episode.
Establish Connections
Valeri surely wants to hear from you! Connect with him on thecodebarbarian.com and Twitter. Don't forget to let Valeri know you heard about him on Devchat.tv's JavaScript Jabber My JS Story podcast!

Every Certified Pre-Owned Mitsubishi (CPO) Vehicle is reconditioned from on the best cars available so you feel that same rare driving experience as the original owner.
Mitsubishi's certified pre-owned warranty is surprisingly good. The main reason is warranty length: 5 years or 60,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage from the car's original sale date, along with 10 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain protection. Mitsubishi's certified pre-owned warranty also offers no deductible, which only enhances its status as one of our favorite CPO plans. There are even special financing terms for drivers who choose a CPO Mitsubishi. The only flaw is that Mitsubishi's certified warranty isn't transferable to the vehicle's next owner."*

*The following models are excluded from Mitsubishi's Certified Pre-Owned Program: i-Miev, Lancer Evolution, Raiser, Lancer Ralliart and Lancer Sportback Ralliart.
As part of our prequalification process performed on every vehicle to become Certified Pre-Owned, a Vehicle History Report is required. This report includes vital information like accident and repair history, and helps identify cars that don't meet Mitsubishi standards, so you can choose from only the best vehicles available.
Every Certified Pre-Owned Mitsubishi must pass a rigorous 123-point inspection by a Certified Technician. Designed to test every aspect of the vehicle to ensure the strictest of standards, not all cars will make it through. But the ones that do, you can rest assured, are the best of the best. And peace of mind that comes with every mile of owning a Certified Pre-Owned Mitsubishi doesn't stop there.

Stop and smell the
Botanical Garden17
Why locals love it
If you want to stop and smell the roses then that's the place to go to. Tartu Botanical Gardens were founded already in 1803 and in 1806 the moved to the current location. Between the plants you'll find interesting sculptures from Tartu Art Museum's collections. Try finding the "napping bear" or the "drowner".
Why you should visit it
Tartu Botanical Garden is not just a place to enjoy rich flora, but also the venue for many concerts and other events. The best thing about the Botanical Gardens is that walking in the gorgeous outdoor area is totally free of charge so you can even have a picnic there.
Special tip
The entrance to the green house collections costs 3€ for adults, 2€ for kids/students and 6€ for a family.

North Carolina authorities arrested and charged a man suspected of drug trafficking after they seized 197 pounds of marijuana from his vehicle. The Drug Enforcement Agency made the arrest in March along with Cherokee Indian Police and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
Officers stopped the accused man, a resident of Pasco, Wash., shortly after he entered the Cherokee Indian Reservation. They conducted a search of his vehicle during the traffic stop and found the marijuana. Investigators believe that the marijuana originated in an area of the West Coast where possession of the drug is legal. The marijuana could likely have been sold for a higher profit margin in East Coast states, where it remains illegal. Investigators estimated that the total street value of the marijuana totaled around $788,000.
Along with the marijuana, officers seized the vehicle the accused man was driving at the time of the traffic stop, a 2004 Chevrolet pickup truck. The man faces a charge of trafficking in marijuana. The DEA continues to investigate the case along with several other law enforcement agencies.
People who are accused of trafficking in large quantities of drugs like marijuana are often charged in federal court. Federal drug charges often carry harsher penalties than cases in state courts. A conviction can carry serious consequences, including long prison sentences and steep fines.
A criminal defense attorney handling a federal drug trafficking case may employ several strategies to minimize the penalties a client faces. In many cases, attorneys challenge traffic stops or search warrants because authorities may have violated a defendant's civil rights. In other cases, it may be possible for an accused person to enter a drug diversion program or plead to reduced charges for cooperating with law enforcement.
