I guess I forgot to post this but this was taken while I was working on it. I took my kenko extension tubes which are designed to pass the signal through to the lens and I drilled 1/16th holes at 90 degrees to each of the 8 pins on two of the rings (little bit tricky). I drilled a hole in the side of the tube to feed some wires through and soldered the wires to connect the two tubes so that they can be physically seperated but still electrically connected. I added a DB9 connector in the middle for good measure after this pic was taken and cleaned things up a bit.
The idea is that one tube goes right on the camera body and the other one goes on my reversed lens so as far as the camera is concerned, the reversed lens is still connected, TTL, EXIF, Aperture...it's all there baby!
New skeg control box. Much neater and a bit wider. All is good now :-)

psychosocial therapies are part of the standard management of schizophrenic illnesses, but have not been subjected to systematic evaluation and are therefore not included in this guideline. This does not imply that they are not essential components of good practice.
The remainder of this section describes the evidence for the effectiveness of Education Programmes, Family Interventions, and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in the management of schizophrenia. Section 3 provides recommendations for the application of these interventions in clinical practice, according to the phase of the illness.
Education programmes
Education Programmes are directed at either patients or carers/family members and have several aims. Improvement in knowledge of schizophrenia and its course and in compliance with treatment has been shown. There is also evidence of greater satisfaction with services provided. Some programmes go beyond the provision of information and take an educational approach to skills training or problem solving.
Education Programmes for patients may be undertaken in individual or in group settings. Simple information-giving is less effective than interactive sessions. The focus includes giving information about the course and management of the illness, including the importance of compliance with medication and the management of stress.
Providing carers and family members with information on the likely course of the illness, the treatments available, the importance of compliance and the services available is an essential element of good practice It may be undertaken as part of a Family Intervention programme
Specific techniques, e.g. use of homework or video, have not been shown to improve the assimilation of information, but a group setting has advantages
Family interventions
The aims of 'Family Intervention' include reduction of frequency of relapse into illness and reduction of hospital admissions, reduction in the burden of care on families and carers, and improvement in compliance with medication.
Some Family Intervention Programmes have targeted families where there are high levels of criticism, hostility and over-involvement. 'High expressed emotion' is a measure of these features and programmes which reduce this or reduce the amount of 'face to face' contact between the patient and family members have been shown to reduce the frequency of relapse. However, the measurement of expressed emotion is a research technique which is not practical for everyday use. Family Intervention Programmes which are not derived from this theoretical background have been shown to be effective.
Most intervention strategies contain more than one technique. Separating and defining the effects of the components of an intervention strategy is not possible at present as few studies examine the effect of a single technique and only a general description of interventions used in research studies is usually given. However, a number of practice guides have been published which give detailed descriptions of the techniques employed in some studies. Family Intervention has been shown to be effective with some variation in the components of the programme, but family sessions to address the problems identified in the analysis may not be effective if the patient is not included. Social skills training and vocational rehabilitation were included in some studies. These are not covered as separate interventions in the guideline.
Cognitive behaviour therapy
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for psychosis is a modification of standard cognitive behavioural therapy. The aim is to modify symptoms (e.g. delusions, hallucinations) or the consequences of the symptoms which may be cognitive, emotional, physiological or behavioural. The treatment programme is intensive (involving about 20 hours of individual treatment) and based on an individually tailored formulation which provides an explanation of the development, maintenance and exacerbation of symptoms and of pre-morbid mood, interpersonal and behavioural difficulties.
There is now good evidence that treatment resistant symptoms (delusions, hallucinations) can be substantially reduced in a significant proportion of those who complete therapy. It is not yet clear who is most likely to benefit from treatment and many patients may be unwilling to participate. The treatment is well tolerated. However, reduction of symptoms has not been shown to lead to significant social or lifestyle improvements.
A combination of the following techniques has been shown to be most effective in lessening symptoms of psychosis resistant to other forms of treatment:
◦enhancement of cognitive behavioural coping strategies5
◦developing a rationale to explain symptoms28◦realistic goal setting
◦modification of delusional beliefs29◦modification of dysfunctional assumptions.
A number of these techniques are a refinement of normal good practice using a systematic approach.
'Early Intervention Studies' have aimed to identify prodromal symptoms or the 'signature' preceding relapse. The approach is not a form of cognitive therapy, but early intervention with medication or Cognitive Behaviour Therapy may be facilitated
Today I did a awesome modification to a BrickArms M4 Carbine: by cutting the barrel in half and cutting off the rail/handle, I created a "Commando", one of the assault rifles featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops, and it is definetly one of my Top 10 favorite Black Ops weapons. Plus, my favorite character, Frank Woods, is almost always seen wielding this gun, usually with an ACOG scope.
I enjoyed building this airplane set over the holiday, but it needed a little something extra. Since the plane reminded me of an F4-U Corsair, I decided to add the folding wings. With only six or eight extra pieces, I was able to get the wings to fold with very little modification. The small pip in the inner wing keep the wings locked down while in flight.
Control knob (slider) for the skeg.
A solid rod of clear polycarbonate was used to shape the knob.
The bolt is used to pinch the skeg cable.
Not being as young as I was the last time I set out to ride the Lakes passes saw me scrabbling for the lightest bike I could lay my hands on. My 2010 racing bike has laid dormant for some time now but presented itself as being the best bike for the long ride to the Lake District and back.
In its former and more glorious state as a racing thoroughbred, it had some severe drawbacks making it a less attractive option to the older version of myself whom this bike was not built for.....did I really used to ride the bars so low?
In an effort to make the bike better suited to the needs of a near 50 year old man, I made one or two changes to help me get through the long ride.
I produced some aluminium spacers for the headset to both raise the bars and aesthetically divert attention form this sign of weakness and old age. I also replaced the Dura Ace 7700 levers for some more recent Tiagra nine speed shifters, the latter being ergonomically more suited to a higher hand position.
Along with some transmission changes and the removal of SPDR pedals being replaced with SPD models, the bike was better suited to being a long distance lightweight.
This took the least amount of time and was actually complete in about an hour or so. It is simple stenciling.
Part # 5151 is the best u-joint by Traxxas, as it has rounded shoulders to the joints and also is a bit larger for strength.
This is the clearest photo of the original nut that I could find. It's missing a large chunk near the 6th string, meaning that I couldn't put a low E string on it.
僕はたまに海の夢を見ます。でもその海は砂浜のビーチでも、漁港でもありません。何故か埠頭なんです。夢の中の僕は、どこか不安な気持ちを抱きながら独り埠頭に立っているのです。
もしかするとこれは夢なのではないかと自分に問いかけながら僕はシャッターを切り続けました・・・・。
i love changing houses from time to time, i love decoration,
i love to modify the hell out of buildings :)
Most of the times i am 'paused' due to prims.. oh well
So after the Holiday house, i continued with this older house i was decorating.
This is a building by designer prims, a skybox actually wich i tranformed to land house. Most important for me was to open some areas for the eye to explore. The bedroom area is quite big now, after taken out a middle devider wall -i love more open spaces thus i added also a celing entrance - so there is place for some inner garden and a ladder to the sky (my favorite part)
Up where the ladder leads is a small garden with trellis and vines and perhaps a pool, we'll see.
Then by the bedroom i placed a thick windown with glasses and in between a fireplace (yes, odd for reality, but hey this is not reality ;))
Thats it for now :)
Maybe i'll post some details of corners later...
p.s. yes, there are still areas to be furnished and additions to be placed. This is no special picture, just out of some random snapshots i took...
*sigh* finally this house has also sentimental value to me <3
