We always work to find the most comfortable way to live life, whether that be in our clothing, our cars, our homes, our schools, or our place of work. Comfortable living works to activate endorphins, which will in turn, increase our overall quality of life. Within those spheres of comfort however, lies a place where we seek comfort the most; where we sit. After weeks and months of painful posteriors, the students in grade 6 at St. John XXIII school in Calgary, Alberta, agonized over that very issue: There must be a way to find comfort where we sit in class or in the gym at lunch! The students vowed to find serenity for their hindquarters, and so, set out to incorporate aesthetically pleasing designs, filled with all the accessories and creature comforts they desired to make sitting for long periods of time more enjoyable. The student’s passion for comfort was so vast that the class produced multiple concepts. The living concepts had to be ‘structurally sound’. The students had to take into account the number of hours they would have to spend, perched on them, some precariously, and others more solidly, throughout the concept stage. Using a combination of mathematical measurements and the scientific method of hypothesizing, testing materials and designs and retesting with different variables, the students produced a rather stunning and innovative cardboard array of ways to ‘take a load off’! Have a look! Comfort is key!
The person who owned this picked it up "very cheap for a Roller" and it showed. Loads of electrical faults, seized fuel pump, rotten sills, rusty brake pipes, and leaky rear shock absorbers. Hasn't been back for a retest, so not sure whats happening to it.
April 13, 103/365 (1199/1461)- Today was to be the first full day of computer-based testing across Florida for the 10th grade standardized math tests. Every student must pass it in order to eventually graduate so it's a major headache. Since I am one of the "techy" people I was a co-proctor to help with login and other computer issues. After all the kids logged in and started the test some router beyond our walls decided to stop and reset, which invalidates every kid taking the test. After some scrambling and tech-support phone calls we gave up for today.
Tomorrow we do it again with a new group of students, and hopefully better luck. Today's group will have to retest next week. Fun . . .
Thats better! New alternator on, batteries all checked and topped up as needed and she is right as rain now, so the voltmeter in the cab is reading a better figure now! Retest tomorrow in Exeter!
You are Solving the Wrong Problem

There is some problem you are trying to solve.
In your life, at work, in a design. You are probably solving the wrong problem.
Paul MacCready, considered to be one of the best mechanical engineers of the 20th century, said it best: “The problem is we don’t understand the problem.”
Story time.
It’s 1959, a time of change. Disney releases their seminal film Sleeping Beauty, Fidel Castro becomes the premier of Cuba, and Eisenhower makes Hawaii an official state. That year, a British industry magnate by the name of Henry Kremer has a vision that leaves a haunting question: Can an airplane fly powered only by the pilot’s body power? Like Da Vinci, Kremer believed it was possible and decided to push his dream into reality. He offered the staggering sum of £50,000 for the first person to build a plane that could fly a figure eight around two markers one half-mile apart. Further, he offered £100,000 for the first person to fly across the channel. In modern US dollars, that’s the equivalent of $1.3 million and $2.5 million. It was the X-Prize of its day.
A decade went by. Dozens of teams tried and failed to build an airplane that could meet the requirements. It looked impossible. Another decade threatened to go by before our hero, MacCready, decided to get involved. He looked at the problem, how the existing solutions failed, and how people iterated their airplanes. He came to the startling realization that people were solving the wrong problem. “The problem is,” he said, “that we don’t understand the problem.”
MacCready’s insight was that everyone working on solving human-powered flight would spend upwards of a year building an airplane on conjecture and theory without the grounding of empirical tests. Triumphantly, they’d complete their plane and wheel it out for a test flight. Minutes later, a years worth of work would smash into the ground. Even in successful flights, a couple hundred meters later the flight would end with the pilot physically exhausted. With that single new data point, the team would work for another year to rebuild, retest, relearn. Progress was slow for obvious reasons, but that was to be expected in pursuit of such a difficult vision. That’s just how it was.
The problem was the problem. Paul realized that what we needed to be solved was not, in fact, human powered flight. That was a red-herring. The problem was the process itself, and along with it the blind pursuit of a goal without a deeper understanding how to tackle deeply difficult challenges. He came up with a new problem that he set out to solve: how can you build a plane that could be rebuilt in hours not months. And he did. He built a plane with Mylar, aluminum tubing, and wire.
The first airplane didn’t work. It was too flimsy. But, because the problem he set out to solve was creating a plane he could fix in hours, he was able to quickly iterate. Sometimes he would fly three or four different planes in a single day. The rebuild, retest, relearn cycle went from months and years to hours and days.
18 years had passed since Henry Kremer opened his wallet for his vision. Nobody could turn that vision into an airplane. Paul MacCready got involved and changed the understanding of the problem to be solved. Half a year later, MacCready’s Gossamer Condor flew 2,172 meters to win the prize. A bit over a year after that, the Gossamer Albatross flew across the channel.
What’s the take-away? When you are solving a difficult problem re-ask the problem so that your solution helps you learn faster.
Find a faster way to fail, recover, and try again. If the problem you are trying to solve involves creating a magnum opus, you are solving the wrong problem.

Retest of the TDC Stereo Colorist after the previous test roll showed the focus was off between the lenses. This is my bench where the camera repair happens.
I also tested the hot shoe with a strobe on the camera, where god intended me to stick it. This really helped the stereo perspective so the user manual is right when it says to have direct sun right behind you on the subject.
Also testing Ektar 100 film since I've never tried it before. It's supposed to have the finest grain for color negative film. You need that for this camera because the negatives are half 35mm size and grain does not look good in stereo.

Last year it took four of us to hold her down for them to just draw the caterpillar on her arm. Today she was really good, although she did cry when they pricked her. She's still allergic to egg, although there was an improvement. (This was taken later after the reaction had gone down.) Fingers crossed for the retest this time next year!
I met David on Ben Yehuda Street in Tel Aviv today.
David was born in the USA. He was a percussionist in many bands and played allover the land.
45 years ago he immigrated to Israel. He is an author and has written many book on economics. He is teaching at Octava school of drumming.
I found some more info on Google:
"David Z. Rich, a native of Detroit, Michigan, economic consultant, founder and educational director of Octavia School of Music
David Z. Rich spent his early years in Detroit and Miami Beach, Florida. He graduated from Florida State University with degrees in economics and philosophy, thereafter accepted to the London School of Economics as a doctoral candidate in economics and philosophy.
After 4 years of graduate studying at the LSE he interrupted his academic career to leave for the nascent state of Israel where he has been residing ever since; while in Israel he has had 7 books published - 4 in economics and 3 in philosophy, all of which are in the major public and university libraries through the world.
His current work, One Throw of the Dice: Contemporary Physics and its Philosophy, is based on a lifetime or study and research, leading to an original theory in physics and its philosophy, and is Rich's 8th published volume."
" ONE THROW OF THE DICE: CONTEMPORARY PHYSICS AND ITS PHILOSOPHY
David Z. Rich (Israel)
ISBN-13: 978-1-907343-94-0
225 pages - Hardback - August 2013

The book
In our contemporary era, two dominant theories in physics exist, and often clash. Einstein's relativity theory is based on strict determinism, while quantum theory is strictly indeterministic.
While Einstein recognized the value of quantum theory, he maintained that it is incomplete, and that the Old One upstairs does not play dice with the world.
David Z. Rich's work is a new theory in physics, based on information theory, utility theory, and probability theory developed in the work, unifying physics, demonstrating that while we can never know if the Old One plays dice with the world, it is as if He threw the dice just once.
This is a new theory and developed for theory testing is the approach of the critical test, as opposed to Karl Poppler's crucial experiment.
The critical test relies on critique for debate and clarification, resulting, perhaps, in retesting, as explained in this work.
This is a new philosophical work as well as a new theory in physics, and explains the problems of contemporary physics, and reformulates them into a new and effective theory."

For Mold Remediation HomePro Restoration uses a third party testing company. They come in test the home or building for mold and find out if it has elevated levels and what types of mold are present and then we go in and complete the remediation work then they come back once were done and retest to see if we have acceptable mold levels after our work is complete.

After showing a strong positive last year for Lyme disease (she was tested twice to be sure), Blue was immediately treated with Doxycycline for a month. Thankfully, she has never shown any signs of illness. It is not uncommon for antibodies to exist without signs of illness, so we totally expected to see a positive reading when she was retested. It was a pleasant surprise that she tested negative!
The SNAP® 4Dx® Test for dogs is used for parasitic screening, specifically: heartworm disease, ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease and anaplasmosis. If not treated in the early stages, these diseases can be life threatening. Regular screening is highly recommended. As is taking preventive measures.
DT29 was back at Ensignbus on 08/09/23 for it's MOT - retest, having failed the previous week with a leaking fuel tank. With the new tank installed, the vehicle passed. The vehicle is now having some additional work undertaken on it's 'cooling pack' before then hopefully appearing at the Metrobus Orpington Garage Open Day, on Saturday 23 September.
Ça fait un sacré bail que j’ai pas posté sur ce compte. À vrai dire, je me suis retrouvée dans une phase où les poupées, c’était plus trop mon truc. Je me sentais débordée par tous les achats que j’avais faits pendant les années et ça m’a donné envie de prendre une distance avec les poupées. J’avais même mis mes Pullip/little Pullip et bjd en vente, cette puce incluse.
Puis un jour, en avril, j’ai quand même voulu retester quelque chose, parce que je voulais quand même avoir au moins une petite poupée avec moi, sans pour autant retomber dans les gros achats du passé, parce que c’est devenu trop pour moi. J’ai essayé de trouver une tête compatible pour le corps « nendobjd » comme je l’appelle. Les nendoroids, ça a été un fail, donc de fil en aiguille, j’en suis revenue à cette petite poupée, je l’ai sortie de sa boite un jour, juste pour faire une comparaison avec une autre poupée, et je n’ai plus eu le cœur de la remettre dans sa boite, je ne voulais juste plus la vendre ahah. Donc la voilà. J’ai pris mon temps, mais j’ai fini par sortir faire ces quelques photos et j’ai adoré, c’était très chouette, c’est la beauté du printemps 🌸
2008 April 6 - the jury rigged switch idea didn't really work out. The yellow wire in earlier pictures--some scrap strand I had on hand--was to extend the inductor's center tap, but it's too thick. When I close the lid, it presses down on the (+) battery contact and lights the LEDs. I can always cut a hole in the side and add a proper switch later.
At any rate, the light is stable when placed vertically on a flat surface, small enough to palm, has a nice heft from the AA, and it throws out a pretty blue color that illuminates the whole room. Now if I can stuff in a manual switch or photoresistor (so it turns itself on automatically in the dark), that would be most awesome.
Will have to experiment with yellow, orange, green and red to see what's best for a night light. It has to be sleep-friendly and yet provide enough illumination to see when waking in the middle of the night.
A single somewhat flat AA (around 1.1V) should power this at acceptable brightness for around 8-10 hours. Because it uses two LEDs in parallel, it seems to dim and die rapidly around 0.8V. A single LED on this circuit is supposed to be able to run down to 0.3-0.4V. Will have to retest and also try a fully charged AA.
Just retesting my 40D and my 24" Qbox before I send in my 40D for service.
P.S. My nose isn't broken, it just moves that much when I move my mouth. lol
Strobist 580ex fired w/ Cybersyncs @ 1/8th power directly in front of subject. Camera hand held in front of subject. (Look at eye reflection.)
Lock stop fitted. I had them made to 23mm ID as although the rack is 22mm, the Ford P100 inner tie rods tapered out a bit at the end meaning they'd not quite fit. As I've now switched to Mini Clubman tie rods which sit flush against the rack, I could have gone for 22mm but it doesn't really matter once they're tightened down. The Mini tie rods sitting flush means I could probably have also gotten away with them only being 10mm long but I guess it's better that I clearly demonstrate no fouling than still being marginal when I go for the retest.
We nearly had a tragedy this week--I guess Sitka got a rat that someone had poisoned! When I woke up on Monday, she was urinating blood! When I got her to the vet, she did a coagulation test that come back showing that her blood wasn't clotting (typical reaction to rat poison). She's on massive doses of vitamin K and three other medicines. We have to watch her for three weeks to make sure she's okay, and take her back to retest her blood. Since she never leaves my backyard, I guess a rat that someone else poisoned got in my yard and she ate it--I'll be watching her VERY closely from now on!

Loads of fruit in this year's Christmas cake.
Miranda carried out the quality control - testing the dried papaya, pineapple, mango, apricots, sultanas and all three different colours of glace cherries. She skipped the mixed peel but had to retest the cherries several times.
Now that 701 has been repaired and is all back on the road she is going for a retest at VOSA in Exeter in the morning, the hazards are working and was a simple fix thankfully, also the alternator turned out to be a simple repair and was sorted fairly quickly, so overall, a result, so I thought it was best to give her a wash and a road test this evening! And all went very well!!!

aws of the land. The introduction of the Four Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUP) in Delhi University, despite huge retests from teachers, students as well as parents, is the latest in the continuing series of assaults 0 11 the educ<Jtion ector. .
The protracted struggle by students, workers and farmers of Telangana finally forced the relucti:lnt UPA to announce tl1at it would initiate the process of the formation of a separate state of Telangana. The movement for a separate Gorkhaland 11as also intensified-which was one of the many reasons for CPI(M)'s defeilt in the West Bengal polls in 2011. In Kashmir, the ongoing struggle for right to self-determination, and against the regime of rapes, tortures, 1/disappe~rances", arrests and fake encounters (which characterise 11routine11 life) continues. The· r:novement against the Armed Forces SP.ecial Powers Act (AFSPA) and state repression has intensified. In the north-east too, Jrom Sharmila's indefinite hunger strike and the movement against /\FSPA .
continues, including in the CPt(M)-ruled Tripura. .
If the Kokrajhar violence and the mass exodus of people from the north-east took place in 2012, the saga of discrimination, racial profiling and deep-set prejudices against the north-east continues even in "normal" times, reflected in numerous instances of sexual violence against women from North-East, shocking murder of Richard Loitam or the suicide of Dana Sangma. At the same time, we are witnessing a dangerous situation wherein communal forces led by BJP are attempting make use of situations such as the Kokrajhar violence to foment communal frenzy, by raising the bogey of 'illegal Bangladeshi immigrants' to divide communities and people, and to pit two vulnerable and oppressed communities against each other. .
Various state governments of all political hues continue to Impose draconian legislations like the UAPA (Unlawful Activities Prevention Act) and the CSPSA (Chhattisgarh Special Public Security Act) to quell people's movements again st anti-people and anti-poor policies. Operation Green Himt, AFSPA and UAPA are justified in the name of 'national security'. Even after the Supreme Court warned the Chhattisgarh government that vigilante groups and private militias like the Salwa Judurn are not acceptable, they continue under other names in the state. The continuing brutal massacre of adivasis in Chhattisgarh by the armed and paramilitary is yet another shameful instance of state repression. .
We are also witnessing a renewed fascist communal offensive all over the country. The anti-superstition activist Dr. Dabholkar was recently killed-; fascist assaults were launched by ABVP goons in FTII in the name of opposing 'naxalism'; the witch hunting of artists with the Kabir Kala Manch continued even the Bombay High Court admitted that there was no evidence linking the KKM with the CPI(Maoist). Right now, as this convenor report is being tabled and discussed, a JNU student Is in jail in Gadchiroli, ih yet another fascist curbing of dissenting voices. On the one hand, there is a concerted corporate-backed attempt by the BJP and the ). communal, fascist brigade to promote Narendra Modi as the next Prime Minister-and we are witnessing nothing less than a well-orchestrated public relations campaign (spearheaded by the well-known agency APCO) to whitewash Modi's image and his role in the 2002 Gujarat genocide. On the other hand, communal offensives are on the rise across the country. In Dhule district of Maharashtra for instance we saw one more state-sponsored 'riot' where the entire state machinery helped saffron for ces and the RSS.VHP-Bajrang Dal brigade to wreck mayhem on Muslims, destroying lives and property. Prior to the Dhule violence, similar communal violence had been unleashed by the Hindutva fascist brigade in Bharatpur (in Gopalgarh district of Congress-.
ruled Rajasthan) and Rudrapur town of Udham Singh Nagar district of Uttarakhand, Moreover, no ?erious effort is taking place .
to un(;over and expose the entire Sanghi network responsible for the blasts and terror attacks in Nanded, Malegaon, Ajmer, .
Samjhauta Express and Hyderabad. · .
The communal stereotyping and witch-hunting of innocent Muslim youth in the name of 'fighting terror' continues -from Malegaon, Hyderabad, and Azamgarh to. Darbhanga in Bihar, Muslim youth are picked up, branded as 'terrorists', arrested and tortured without a shred of evidence. Recently, a lower court in Delhi pronounced life imprisonment for a young Muslim man in .
the well-known Batla House case, based on the flimsiest of evidences. Moreover, earlier this year, Afzat Guru was hanged to 1 death in a blatant travesty of justice, and even 'official' evidence has now clearly established that lshrat Jahan and three others· were not killed in an 'encounter'; rather they were murdered in cold blood by the Gujarat police, in collusion with some sections of the Intelligence Bureau. Caste atrocities also continue unabated. On lS'h August this year, observed as 'independence day' .
across the country, a dalit 'villager in Rohtas (Bihar) was stoned to death by a 500-strong mob of upper caste men, for having the temerity to unfurJthe national tricolour in front of a temple of Sant Ravidas. And earlier this year, a young Dalit man died under .
suspicious conditions in Tamil Nadu, simply for the crime of falling in love and marrying a woman from a so·-called 'higher' caste. Dalits are frequently 'punished' with even death for daring to demand their rights, and for struggling for education, land and control over resources. Moreover, refusal to grant reservation for OBCs In higher facuity posts In educational institutions or the recent Supreme Court verdict (July 2013} which ruled that there can be no reservation In appointment for faculty posts in .
speciality and super speciality courses-in medical colleges, including the prestigious All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has. highlighted yet again the entrenched resistance of our establishment against the provisions of reservation and that the struggle for social justice and to defend constitutional rights of the most deprived sections of society Is far from over. .
The recent times saw a spi,rited student-youth and women's movement in the form of a spirited mass upsurge in the wake of a .
horrific gang rape and murder of a 23-year old woman in Delhi. This movement did not confine itself to demanding punishment .
for a few rapists or to inculcate the spirit of chivalry among young men to protect the dignity of women. Rather it placed the .
issue of women's freedom without fear at the forefront of struggle, thus challenging entrenched patriarchy and ils arch defenders. .

Day 2 of Retesting Hunter
Today, geez. It started off with someone scaring the crap out of me at 5 am. I actually slept on and off between 1 and 5. Well, we are up now. Neuro said that Hunter tested positive for Co-Vid. There is some added fun.
Where on Earth?
I have no clue how this even happened. He has not been symptomatic at all. Honestly, he goes no where, so the people (my kids and husband) coming in and out of the house must have brought it in.
I asked for a retest and they did. Guess what? It was positive too. Now, we are on another floor, in complete isolation. We are still getting testing done, but he will be moved to the last on the list.
Lots to Do
He is supposed to have an MRI and an LP (Lumbar Puncture) today, under sedation. If you have sedation, you can't eat or drink. He is hungry and thirsty which is going to make for an unhappy boy. Negative is now, he has to be last on the list.
His blood tests came back normal, except his iron is low. That is fixable. All the other doctors will be coming in today. *Some stranger is peeking in his window and waving. Quite creepy if you ask me.*
Positive and Negatives
Positive: People don't bother us.
Negative: Co-vid. Grumpy child. Isolation.
Also a HUGE negative is that we are now being discharged because he can't be under sedation for 20 days. Bloodwork was done, we got urine on him.
