Thanks all for awesome answers. Regards, Aharon

That would be a sight indeed. Over here, I cringe when reading some of the articles posted on some of our local and national news feeds....grammar, spelling, and even context ....0 understanding. Another thing that seems to have evolved among our under forties ...including the prime minister, is the inability to pronounce the BLOODY LETTER "T"!! It's" matters "...NOT madders, I won't waste any breath on other examples...but there are many.

Plenty of room here in chch Rob ...rents are dropping ....have an empty place right next door to me :)

Great link Mike ...she's back here in June for a month.

Today's chilly weather, with temps around freezing and snow expected, means lots of hot meals and drinks all day long.... ....Breakfast, Dinner, Tea, and Supper! Dinner preparation at 8.30m AM for mid-day Dinner...lots of meat, lots of veggies, and lots of gravy! Full-blown English Dinners every day... ...just like my dear old Mum always made for us...it becomes a habit!! ...and today's weather...Snow and all...>>> Paul....and a cup of hot Tetley Tea!.... :D ...!

Its back!! but only after a new post was made by another member this morning...... gremlins B-)

Thanks CP .... she had a sit down with her Doc today, and her bp is down to acceptable levels (for her age and condition). But...after she read your post on the "statin" drugs, she insisted on dropping them ... he agreed , and admitted that he didn't really know why they were prescribed in the first place ... :angry:

If you go and sit in the blowtorch that is the NZ or Queensland summer sun, Vit D is not what should concern most humans, especially those with a melanin deficiency. You are 100% and I believe that no one is advocating anyone doing that. What is suggested is at least getting a few minutes exposure in the summer and longer in winter. In the summer this would mean out of the peak UV periods and winter probably during peak UV. Ironically it is not the outdoor workers that are suffering but the office/indoor workers. There are times of the day that it is appropriate to be covered and others where...

This is a very similar issue to the other thread here talking about sunscreen... A secure certificate (SSL) is good to have, especially if you collect information which really shouldn't be available to anyone else, such as credit card details, but it is the sunscreen of internet security. SSL only stops someone from hijacking the connection between you and the server, whereas I think that most hacking is directly against the server, or your PC. Recently SSL has become another commodity, to be sold via fear tactics. These days, the only reason why most sites think they require SSL is to...

Netflix is very good but the business model is flawed and they are hemorrhaging cash. They are expected to have a negative cashflow of some N$4.5 billion this year. There will be some drastic changes ahead unfortunately. They have now head hunted the CEO of Activision to see if they can turn their fortunes around. A classic case of a business that had huge start up seed capital but a business model, that although popular with the consumer (like Uber), just doesn't make economic sense.. It will probably eventually work out but not not in it's current form or for $18 a month with multiple...

Well the future is very good for Humankind regarding space exploration in the future people will have the chance to fly to the moon and other planets. There will be intergalactic tourism and people will get to see not only the Milky way but other galaxies. At the moment the Milky way has stopped moving and some other galaxies are still moving so we can observe galaxies moving from Earth what is interesting is if we should travel there then those planets with rings would not yet have them deployed so I'm interested in going there and checking it out. Its possible to travel to the other side of...

Sorry ... I wasn't knocking the job ...but when I saw it first , they had left the "f" out of "shift". Seems to have been fixed.

Thanks Mike ..... BTW only 3 months or so until Omaka :)

Well, I'm back at work today, this afternoon anyway. I realised that I hadn't run any simulator all year, which gave me a fright -- I was thinking maybe I'd reached burnout, but this arvo I fired up Prepar3d to check some work on my lights, and it actually looked quite good, so I probably just needed the wee break. First up was to solve some lighting problems around NZCH, including one light which had somehow changed from a 'normal' light effect on a pole, to a dynamic search-light thing. I'd been trying to sort this for a month, but today I discovered that the 'default' effect has changed in...

Yes, those are certainly beautiful, you are spot-on calling it iconic. However at the moment I have a Spitty aversion, since I'm trying to model the one on the stick in the shopping centre near the airport....
