One must remember that even after hormonal treatment is ceased the effects of estrogen on the body are permanent. And such medical treatment comes with a variety of risks.

"The Black River, nestled in the rocky country northeast of Lake Couchiching.
A local history of the townships surrounding the Black is called The Land Between, an accurate summary of its economic geography. Certainly the land and the rivers to the south have fallen under the wheel of "progress" - the mills and cottages of the Kawarthas, the long history of canals on the Trent and the Severn. To the north, Cottage country has boomed over the lakes of Muskoka and Haliburton, lining the waterways with shacks and palaces. But the land between -the valley of the Black - has so far escaped most such developments."
Thanks for your visit, much appreciated. Enjoy each day.
This image was taken in 2010 and shows some of the then-brand-new buildings on the north bank of the Thames at Blackwall that epitomised the transformation of the Docklands. Just visible on the right is the East India Pier, which is in the Poplar district in the Borough of Tower Hamlets.
The tall building in the centre was the-then newly-finished 103m-high 29-storey Ontario Tower, a luxury executive housing development that was at that time the tallest purely-residential building in London. It is part of the New Providence Wharf development which includes the crescent to its left and Michigan Building beyond that on the riverbank. The tower under construction on the left of the image is the Streamlight Tower, yet another residential development.
To the right of the Ontario Tower is the smaller Radisson Blu Edwardian hotel and on the far right of the image, the building with all the satellite dishes is Reuters' Docklands Technical Centre (or Blackwall Data Centre). Their main office is slightly further west in Canary Wharf.

Really could've done with not finding out that Wilkinsons' Christmas LEDs are a perfect fit for LEGO clips. Looks awesome but I don't think I can do it and keep the thing modular for transport.

The Wild Animal Sanctuary is making a area for the Coyotes I thing they said. The trees are in the area where water will flow. The back section is for the Fox's which 7 are placed. Tree's, water flow, dirt mounds plus concret pip sections covcered with dirt, more than evough room for everyone.
One of my favorite clips showing a staged gag where Leaonard Nimoy in costume from Spock's Brain is handcuffed at gunpoint while reading the headline of the LA Times from July 11th 1968. On this day Benjamin Spock was sentenced to a two year jail term for supporting draft evaders and declaring the Vietnam war unconsitutional in the famous Boston Five trial. This is the exact same time as the thrid season episode Spock's Brain was filmed, hence the costume. A great reminder of the political climate of 1968 in addition to the production of Star Trek.
From the Guardian: Circumcision was different in the time of David and is actually correctly noted in the statue with just the tip of the foreskin removed. It wouldn't become a more common practice to completely remove the skin until roman times. Michelangelo, by all accounts, is accurate to David's time.
From Wikipedia:
David (Italian pronunciation: [ˈdaːvid]) is a masterpiece of Renaissance sculpture created between 1501 and 1504 by Michelangelo.
It is a 5.17-metre (17.0 ft)[a] marble statue of a standing male nude. The statue represents the Biblical hero David, a favoured subject in the art of Florence.[1] Originally commissioned as one of a series of statues of prophets to be positioned along the roofline of the east end of Florence Cathedral, the statue was placed instead in a public square, outside the Palazzo della Signoria, the seat of civic government in Florence, where it was unveiled on 8 September 1504.
Because of the nature of the hero it represented, the statue soon came to symbolize the defense of civil liberties embodied in the Republic of Florence, an independent city-state threatened on all sides by more powerful rival states and by the hegemony of the Medici family. The eyes of David, with a warning glare, were turned towards Rome.[2] The statue was moved to the Galleria dell'Accademia, Florence, in 1873, and later replaced at the original location by a replica.
Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (Italian: [mikeˈlandʒelo ˈdi lodoˈviko buonaˈrɔti siˈmɔni]; 6 March 1475 – 18 February 1564) was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, poet, and engineer of the High Renaissance who exerted an unparalleled influence on the development of Western art.[1] Considered to be the greatest living artist during his lifetime, he has since also been described as one of the greatest artists of all time.[1] Despite making few forays beyond the arts, his versatility in the disciplines he took up was of such a high order that he is often considered a contender for the title of the archetypal Renaissance man, along with his rival and fellow Florentine Medici client, Leonardo da Vinci.
A number of Michelangelo's works of painting, sculpture, and architecture rank among the most famous in existence.[1] His output in every field of interest was prodigious; given the sheer volume of surviving correspondence, sketches, and reminiscences taken into account, he is the best-documented artist of the 16th century.
He sculpted two of his best-known works, the Pietà and David, before the age of thirty. Despite holding a low opinion of painting, Michelangelo also created two of the most influential frescoes in the history of Western art: the scenes from Genesis on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome, and The Last Judgment on its altar wall. As an architect, Michelangelo pioneered the Mannerist style at the Laurentian Library. At the age of 74, he succeeded Antonio da Sangallo the Younger as the architect of St. Peter's Basilica. Michelangelo transformed the plan so that the western end was finished to his design, as was the dome, with some modification, after his death.
Michelangelo was unique as the first Western artist whose biography was published while he was alive.[2] In fact, two biographies were published during his lifetime; one of them, by Giorgio Vasari, proposed that he was the pinnacle of all artistic achievement since the beginning of the Renaissance, a viewpoint that continued to have currency in art history for centuries.
In his lifetime he was often called Il Divino ("the divine one").[3] One of the qualities most admired by his contemporaries was his terribilità, a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur. The attempts by subsequent artists to imitate[4] Michelangelo's impassioned and highly personal style resulted in Mannerism, the next major movement in Western art after the High Renaissance

This is a massive development in Saanich, which is home to the Home Depot. This is the old Thrifty Food liqueur store that's been torn down now.
LG Development’s HUGO masterplan includes the construction of mid-rise buildings at 751 N. Hudson Ave. and 411 W. Chicago Av. The two mixed-use structures will each stand 9 stories and will collectively house roughly 19,000 square feet of retail and 227 apartment units. The 751 N Hudson Avenue building will accommodate 134 residences; 411 W Chicago Avenue will house the remaining 93 units. Completion is scheduled for third-quarter 2023.
The two buildings replace parking lots and will be narrowly separated by 415 W. Chicago Ave, a masonry 1930 low-rise building. The seemingly vacant building is reminiscent of the building containing a cleaner (who owns it) and Bella Luna that remains at the south end of the One Chicago development because the woman refused to sell.
This B Series Leyland National was new as a Leyland development vehicle in 1978 and remained unregistered for over a year, it never leaving the confines of the Lillyhall factory.
It passed to Ribble once Leyland had finished with it and became their 686 and as it had never ventured on a public highway it gained a 'V' suffix registration.
The bus is seen here leaving Leigh bus station in 1990 bound for its home base of Bolton.

A brief tutorial on how to do color development with a JOBO ATL-1500 processor:
1. mix the chemicals by the manufacturers instructions. i store my mixed chemicals either in PET-bottles or in Hama-bellow-bottles. I try to not store any mixed chemicals for any long period of time (max; 2-3 weeks), since they will go bad pretty quckly (which I've learned the hard way). This is even more true if you re-use chemicals.
2. Fire up the JOBO and attach it to you water supply. The first thing I always do is to run a full clean 1-6 program to get water running through the whole system. This is also a good time to start get the rinse water temperature to a correct 38 degrees C. I usually think it is enough when I get it above 37.5 and it doesn't go over 38.5. So the +- 0.5 range will do. At least for me.
3. Fill the bottles in the JOBO with your chemicals. I use a measuring glass to get the correct amount when I run E6. More to that later.
4. Verify that the program is correctly setup.
5. Just insert the loaded drum into the machine. Start the machine. Close the lid. Wait for it to finish. At least if you're running single-use chemicals.
6. When done, I open up the drum and remove the film from the reel. I try to run the final rinse in a separate container, to not get any stab chemicals on my reels.
I leave the chemicals in the stab for at least a minute. Sometimes longer. Not sure if it is good or bad :)
Then I simply hang the film try dry. Either in my drying cabin (for C41) or just in plain air (E6).
If I use the drying cabin I normally set a timer for 20 minutes when I start it and when it fires I go to check and see if the film is dry. If you leave it too long it will curl like crazy.
Tetenal C41:
The tetenal chemicals can be reused and you will still get decent results.
I normally mix up 1L chemicals and store them in bottles (PET normally, so I can squize out air). When it is time to do some development I start the JOBO, run a clean program, make sure the water temperature is correct, and then start to pour chemicals into the bottles. I normally fill them with something like 500ml.
Here's when it gets a bit tricky: to re-use the chemicals you need to gather them in a small container. Plus you do not want to get any cross-contamination between the chemicals.
I got the following at hand: containers for the used chemicals and a jug of water. When the program starts I set one of the containers under the hose of the chemical outlet. Once the processor pours out the chemicals I'm quick to tap the hose a bit (to get those few extra drops out) and the remove the container. Before I put the new container in place, I pour a bit of water on the hose. I also try to get some water _inside_ of the hose. This way I get rid of most of the chemicals. I wait until it's something like 30 seconds left until it will spit out the next batch of chemicals, I then put the new container in place. This way I know I've gotten as little developer as possible in the blix.
When I'm done I pour back the used chemicals into the 1L bottles.
Recently I've started to use a simple stop bath to even save more of the blix. I use this as a single-use chemical.
Tetenal E6:
I've found that these are easier to re-use than the C41 chemicals. I just mix up 0.5L and then gather it after each run and re-use them a few times, until I feel it is probably best to mix a new batch.
I use no stop bath of anything.
I've never failed a single roll using Tetenal's E6 kit. But I've lost quite a few C41 rolls :/ Mostly because of exhausted chemicals and the lack of stop-bath.
Kodak E6:
I use these as single-use chemicals (as they are intended to be). It's quite straight forward, except that it is a PITA to mix six baths.
I normally mix 1L at a time and try to use it over the next weeks.
I use 250ml for two rolls of 135 or 120. I also use 250ml for a sheet of 8x10".
My plan is to try if I get just use 125ml for a single sheet of 8x10". That would save me a lot of chemicals.
I've been searching the last two years a way to turn digital raw into pastel like Fujifilm 400H Pro colors.
I've failed a million times and thought that it's impossible since film reacts to light differently each time vs. digital sensor.
I've come close, but the results vary between lighting situations from bad to excellent. But now I've really cracked something cool.
This particular preset + method editing 8bit jpg (now raw) has been revolutionary discovery. I've gotten excellent results every time and the pictures are always blooming with bright pastel like colors.
I'm about to write this to my blog and release this updated 400H preset in the next few days.
