    Its that circle 2 below the one for bad designers and planers ( where there are a bunch of bad designers and planners being forced to sit in the uncomfortable chairs they designed and the atrocious apartment buildings they planned and use strong tempered steel metal files .... fitted with a soft plastic handle that breaks and jabs into your thumb and drips blood all over the brand new wall surface you where working on ( which , obviously, happened to me yesterday )
  2. Nosebleeds and symptoms overuse of power

    Why are your 'spells' creating any type of 'recoil' ? Now I am wondering what sort of practice you are doing and under what instruction ? That should not happen . Its a bit like reading an electrician saying , sometimes on a big job I get these jolts though my fingers . I had practised various forms of magic over the years , some in depth and with others and in contact with others who did likewise . This is the first time I have heard of nosebleeds as a result. Other types of 'recoil ' , yes . But that was through a fault of practice and needed to be remedied . UNLESS a person had a propensity to nosebleed anyway ( ie, a history of it before and aside from any practice ) .
  3. Wildlife

    The feeding off that tree is still happening , been on for days . Its raining today but later I will check under the tree to see if any feather presents have been dropped for me .
  4. Nosebleeds and symptoms overuse of power

    No. I have not had any symptoms like that . How often is the key . First I would get my blood pressure checked . If that is okay it could be from irritant ; central heating or something in your atmospheric environment . You haven't been putting a lot of magically powerful ..... 'happy powder' ..... up there, have you ? That'll do it .

    Our fire season started on the 2nd last day of winter ! Not even a spring retrieve . We already had a fire south of here - arson. Then the fire services put it out and it started again later , re lit they say . At the moment its very dry although a wet 2nd half of spring is predicted and a summer with a wet season - with an incleasing chance of ' La Nina ' developing . http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/tropical-note/ Good luck !

    What happened ? Did you have to evacuate? Is fire out ?
  7. A while back I opened some part of my profile and it had a list on the left side of my naughty points and why they where awarded to me . Now, when I open parts of my profile I cant see that . How do I find it (to keep track of my score ) ? How many points do you get before loss of license ?

  10. What can go wrong with this..?

    What 'you' ( meaning some old branch of the government ) do is import zillions of gambusia ( 'plague minnow ' ) and dump them in the rivers to eat mosquito lava . Then they will eat instead all the eggs of the beautiful colourful native fish that used to inhabit those rivers and eat the mosquito eggs . The you have sterile rivers full of gambusia and mozzies .... that bight you and give you Ross River Fever ... and that was extremely unpleasant ! http://www.gambusia.net/
  11. Modern Central Asia

    No , its just another example of 'leadership ' . Okay .
  12. Modern Central Asia

    Over the years I have posted threads on the ancient history of Central Asia - this time, something more modern. In converse with people from the area, something interesting has come to light ; much more so than neighbouring countries like Afghanistan , many Central Asian countries have a liberal and secular expression of Islam. A question was asked ; " How did you guys manage to secularize so well in Central Asia. What is the best model to secularize and liberalize in the Islamic world the way you guys have? Honestly want to know what you did differently. Everywhere barring Central Asia and Bosnia/Albania Islamic world is plagued with radicalism. " Answer from Kazakhstan " Take the best from communists. Build schools and universities. Give women equal rights. Separate religion and governmental institutions." " Comrade Women, I understand it is very hard indeed, but you need to put an end the last vestiges of the past once and for all " (great scene at the end ) .
  13. Modern Central Asia

    Turkmenistan is now one of the worlds most closed counties ..... under the ruler ship of 'Father Protector ' Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov . Not sure what 'banning a virus' means but 'Father Protector' ordered the public spaces to be fumigated with a traditional plant called “harmala” as a protective measure. Ranked last in RSF’s 2019 World Press Freedom Index, Turkmenistan is one of the world’s most closed countries. The government controls all domestic media and continues to step up its persecution of those who clandestinely report for exile media outlets. The few Internet users can only access a highly-censored version of the Internet, usually in cafés where they must first present identification. How about Belarus ; " Lukashenko added that he had "lived through this virus." The strongman leader has notoriously dismissed coronavirus as mass "psychosis" and recommended that citizens enjoy a traditional sauna or drink vodka "to poison the virus." .

  16. What made YOU laugh today/tonight ?

    Damn .... I was really hoping to hear that in German and Russian accents
  17. subtle changes ?

    Some people's posts will not accept a 'like' or other response . Some the response button changes to the smilie that I have selected , some work like they used to . Picture sizing works differently ; before I had to click on image and type in a size , now, an image has corner points and I can simply drag it down to any size . Thats a LOT easier . Has someone been tinkering ( and in the case of sizing ) improving ?
  18. What are you listening to?

    Did you sweep us far from your feet Reset in stone this stark belief Salted eyes and a sordid dye Too many years But don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day Ooh, if you take these things from me Did you feed us tales of deceit Conceal the tongues who need to speak Subtle lies and a soiled coin The truth is sold, the deal is done But don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day Ooh, if you take these things from me Undefined, no signs of regret Your swollen pride assumes respect Talons fly as a last disguise But no return, the time has come So don't despair this day, will be their damnedest day Ooh, if you take these things from me Ooh, if you take these things from me
  19. subtle changes ?

    ... Image ..... hosting ...... limit .... ? click twice for resizing window ; OR drag points in .
  20. subtle changes ?

    and now double click gets the re size window AND can also now resize with the corner points . Maybe its just some images? But I have that issue before , pics do not come up, just the pic title in text . One more try on original pic ;
  21. subtle changes ?

    No image . Lets try a different one ;
  22. subtle changes ?

    It used to . I think it was left click on pic , or maybe left click twice and then a re sizing window came up . I never knew about that for years , until ....... wait for it .... GSmaster Replied: February 5 You should decrease the size of images when posted, had to put you on ignore. Nungali Replied: February 6 Yes, well obviously I am a 'lotech' ie, techno idiot . if you can explain to me how to do that I shall comply GSmaster Replied: February 6 Click twice on image, it will open dimensions put something lik 300-500 px - and it worked . Now .... (before I hit the post button ) ... a nice big picture ... and now i hit the post button .....
