I'M DONE I'M FINALLY DONE. This is probably the longest anyone ever took to finish a 52 weeks project. It's called 52 weeks not 2 years geez nydia.
I"m just glad it's over to be honest. Now I won't have any titles to put for my self portraits.

Here's our brand new desk! 200lbs of steel handcrafted over too long of a period... The whole creation process is on my blog: aloftindenver.com, and you can see the final summary and description here: aloftindenver.com/2009/10/a-new-desk-complete/
I had 2 of the wrecked carriages from the 2003 lair extra so I stuck them together and painted them up. I think it looks ok, but I'm not 100% happy with it. I have clearly made a miscalculation, as the carriage fits through the arch on the right but not the left, which is of course why I've put it on the right side of the tunnel!

Taken 26/03/11: King Class No. 6024 ‘King Edward I’ was to have completed the GWR theme to the 2011 M-HR Spring Steam Gala, but pathing problems meant KE1 was unable to reach Hampshire. At short notice, the GCR and No. 4953’s owner came to the rescue and ‘Pitchford Hall’ proved a more welcome replacement. Built in 1929, No 4953 was allocated to a diverse number of sheds around the GWR/BR(WR) system, including two spells at Weymouth*. Withdrawal came from Cardiff East Dock in 1963 and 20 years at Barry followed, before becoming the 150th loco to leave that scrapyard**. Intended for the Dean Forest Railway, a move to Crewe was followed by restoration at Tyslsey and a return to steam in 2004. Before moving to the GCR in 2010, the restored Hall spent time on the main line including a record breaking run in 2006:
"No. 4953, along with 4965 Rood Ashton Hall, broke the Lickey Incline steam ascent record by 36 seconds. On the return leg of the September 2006 double-headed run to Newport (originally Cardiff, amended later to Newport) hauling nine coaches, the locomotives climbed the 1 in 37.7 incline faster than any steam only train in preservation. Indeed some are saying that this was the fastest steam ascent of the Lickey ever, but this is impossible to substantiate.”*

Photo: Thursday evening I went back to the forest near my house. I just love the forest energy around me when I walking down a path, it is so still and quiet. Looking forward to exploring again soon.
My May blood test results remained mostly the same as April. My M protein (specific measure of cancer levels) remained the same at 20. It is difficult to get an accurate M protein value with my particular type of multiple myeloma, so we are also looking at another more general measure, called an igG, to get a more complete picture of my progress. The igG showed a slight increase (22.7 -> 25.8). However, as my cancer levels have not spiked again, there will be no change in treatment.
I’m focusing positive energy on good results for June. Feeling content.
M protein (g/L) (0 = no cancer detected)
May = 20
Apr = 20
Mar = 13
Feb = value missing (believe similar to January)
Jan 2018 = 13 (began Ninlaro chemo - Jan 8th)
Dec = between 10 and 11
Nov = 8
Late Oct = 9
Early Oct = between 5 and 6
Sept = under 7.7
Aug 2017 = value missing
Feb 2015 (began Pomalyst chemo + dexamethasone) = 36.1
igG protein (6.7 - 15.2 normal levels)
May = 25.8
Apr = 22.7
Mar = 22.0
Feb = 23.1
Jan = 20.6
To recap: On Sunday, May 20th, I completed Cycle 43 Week 3. I have Multiple Myeloma and anemia, a rare cancer of the immune system. It is incurable, but treatable. Since February 9th 2015, I have been on Pomalyst and dexamethasone chemo treatment (Pom/dex). On July 16th, my dexamethasone treatment ended, due to eye damage, as reported by my Glaucoma Specialist, from long-term use. On January 9th I began Ninlaro chemo as my cancer levels have been steadily rising.

Completed in 1919, the Sand Hills Lighthouse served as a beacon for mariners traveling along the north coast of Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula. The lighthouse was manned for only 20 years, being automated by the Coast Guard in 1939. During WWII the grounds were utilized as a training facility by the Coast Guard. The station was officially decommissioned in 1954 and was sold into private ownership in 1961.
In 1995, it opened as a Bed and Breakfast.

With Navaratri complete, there was still one more night to sum it up. Dussehra is celebrated on the tenth night, and is the final celebration of Goddess Durga’s victory over the tyranny of demons, as well as a time when we celebrate our beloved satguru, Paramahamsa Vishwananda.
A great yagna took place with rituals celebrating Divine Mother, including the chanting of mantras to vanquish negativity and implement protection for everyone. After that, we venerated our satguru with a Maha-abhishekam of Gurudev Himself, and then Gurudev distributed blessings and prasad to each person present.
In His final comments, Gurudev reminded us that the enemies or demons we've been talking about all week are actually on the inside of us, especially pride and ego. We ask the Mother to defeat those demons inside us, to cleanse us and to increase the love for the Divine within us, so that we never forget about the Lotus Feet of the Lord.
Jai Ma! Jai Gurudev!

It's been a while since I've taken a picture. I needed a break, but today I was really feeling the need to get back to it.
I'm working on my Halloween costume right now. I have most of the supplies, and this is one of the components (a Radio Shack 7-color LED) to really make it cool. I hooked it all up to make sure it's working, and here you have it.
Once the costume is done, there will be pictures a-plenty, but I'm keeping it under wraps until then.
Fifteen Iraqi police officers successfully complete IED Defeat course
Baghdad, 16 February 2017 - The United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS), the Government of Japan and the Ministry of Interior in Iraq held a certification ceremony for fifteen Iraqi police officers who have successfully completed the Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) Defeat Course (basic). This project is funded by a generous contribution from the Government of Japan and directly supports the development of national capacity to respond to explosive threats in recently retaken areas.
The four-week training course plus follow-up mentoring was held at Salman Pak Police EOD training centre. The specifically designed training course includes numerous practical scenario exercises with the aim of building the confidence of the students to mitigate the threat of explosive hazards including IEDs. Local police officers were selected from Al Anbar, Diyala, Ninawa and Salah Ad Din governorates.
Maj. Gen. Abdulkarim Hatim, Head of Training Department, Ministry of Interior, stated that “training courses in Iraq are contributing to the return of displaced families to their homes paving the way for necessary reconstruction and development projects.”
H.E. Mr. Fumio Iwai, Ambassador of Japan to the Republic of Iraq, said in his statement that “it must be a daunting task for us all to consolidate peace and stability in the liberated areas after the liberation of Mosul including the expected liberation of Western side in the coming period by the brave Iraqi Security Forces.” He added that “however, we hope that the liberation of Mosul gives us, especially for Iraqi people, a golden opportunity to strive as one not only for its reconstruction but also for national reconciliation.”
Mr. Pierre Lemelin, Senior Programme Manager, UNMAS Iraq, highlighted that “UNMAS has trained 45 participants since 2016 to enhance a national capacity to respond to and mitigate explosive hazard threats including IEDs in retaken areas.”
