Do they do matt/anti reflective protectors?
Did you guys know that in Zelda BotW the biggest part of the story comes from beating the devine beasts multiple times?
It shows just how weak the core story is.
The core gameplay though balances out things very nicely.
TBH I can't even really remember much of the story of BoTW but I loved every minute of it, one of a handful of games I wish I could forget so I could experience it fresh all over again.
hehe sounds good
thats some awesome games you have there to keep you busy
My friend just bought her husband a Switch for his imminent birthday. Any recommendations for accessories? Thanks.
Orzly tempered glass screen protector, Orzly case, micro SD card, USB-C cables for charging.
Looks like they're fixing Doom 1 and 2, and porting Doom 64.
Waiting for Doom 64
Untitled Goose Game - Sept 20th
Although, same day as Links Awakening, so perhaps not the smartest move.
Still, been waiting for this one for ages.
I really don't get the appeal of that game.
I just got a refund of EUR 2,68 which means I get the game for under EUR 40,-.
I was eying this game up only yesterday and its on offer today... Looks to be an Ace Dungeon crawler.... Total bargain price at £23.49 delivered
Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of the Dusk Nintendo Switch
Oh my, this might be my new favourite thing
Okay so I'm thinking about buying Astral chain on the Switch , currently on Amazon at £39.99, but I can't quite work out from the reviews, is the game just a arcade mass beat em button masher with a great story?
Shopto has it for £39.40 or something like that I know it's only a few pence but it's a saving
True, but I have a few hundred pounds in Amazon vouchers, plus I can buy using prime delivery.... But since my post I have made the purchase, after watching this video https://youtu.be/J6OijGW8OSo
wait there was a story in zelda????? i thought if i just ran around hitting things with swords that zelda would stop banging ganon in the castle
Yes you can get matt/anti-reflective screen protector, I got one for the GF switch from Argos. =)
As for those that got Astral Chain, what are your general impression? I'm loving it so far, combat more simplified than Nier automata and other previous platinum games and story is engaging enough for me.
The combat isn't completely button masher as some combos need to be triggered in certain way.
I have the collector edition which seems like they only sold 20000+ or so in Europe or UK.
I've only put about an hour into Astral Chain and I'm loving it. The fast action and visual style is really something.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another movie review by EonTalk. This time around, I’ve got the written review of the comedic thriller, <Night of the Undead>.
<Night of the Undead> was directed by Shin Jung-Won, who also directed <2km, To Catch A Virgin Ghost>, <Chaw>, and <Ghost Sweepers>. As you can see from his previous works, the director has a specific taste when it comes to movies, as all of the films are of a similar nature. <Night of the Undead> starred the likes of Lee Jung-Hyun, Kim Sung-Oh, Seo Young-Hee, Yang Dong-Kun, and Lee Mi-Do, and is categorized as a comedic thriller. Let’s first take a look at the synopsis of the film before progressing further into the movie.
The synopsis is as follows:
So-Hee was living a happy, newlywed life with her husband, Man-Gil, who’s a very active person who runs on 3 hours of sleep. However, her joyous life came crashing down when reality hit her. Man-Gil wasn’t the perfect husband she had thought he was; she even finds out that he tried to kill her. Not only this, but she finds out that Man-Gil is actually of an alien descent, known as “Unbreakable.” With the help of her two friends Sera and Yang-Sun, as well as a mysterious researcher named Dr. Jang, So-Hee tries to kill her husband before he kills her.
Source: EonTalk YouTube Channel
When the movie started, I enjoyed how comedic it was. It starts off light and had sprinkles of humor that kept me chuckling. Also, the story itself wasn’t what I expected. After watching the trailers, I made an assumption of what the narrative would be, but upon watching, it wasn’t exactly as I had predicted (and it probably isn’t what you expect either).
Furthermore, I enjoyed seeing the light, comedic performances by the actors. The female actors, Lee Jung-Hyun, Seo Young-Hee, and Lee Mi-Do, all gave pretty good comedic performances. I especially enjoyed the goofy character played by Yang Dong-Kun. If you didn’t know, Yang Dong-Kun is a famous rapper in Korea and is very well-known in the Korean hiphop scene. It was good to see him play such a playful, silly character in a feature film. (But then again, he’s not really of a serious character in the K-hiphop scene either)
Moreover, there was another character that the audience was able to see a new side to. <Night of the Undead> showed a totally different side to Kim Sung-Oh than from his roles in <The Man From Nowhere> and <Unstoppable>. In those films, he played a very evil, vile antagonist. However, in <Night of the Undead>, Kim Sung-Oh played more of a light, humorous character. He turns into a more villain-type that we’re more familiar with later on in the film, but it isn’t full-out serious.
One of the worst parts about the movie is its story and progression. The film starts to lose its tension after about the 40 minute mark or so. It loses its tension in the middle, but does pick back up after a while. However, I wish they would’ve developed the story a little more; if so, it would’ve made a much better film. The movie clocks in at 1 hour and 50 minutes, but if they would’ve cut the unnecessary parts and polished it into a 1 hour 30 minutes movie, it would’ve been much better. The story as what it is right now is as if a 4 year old wrote it.
Also, I felt that the movie tried to do too much. It starts off as a comedy, turns into a drama, progresses into a thriller, and finishes as an action movie. The thing is, it doesn’t do any one of these genres really well. The film lacks identity; it’s officially labeled as a comedic thriller, but it’s hard to call it that, as there was essentially no elements of thrill or suspense, in my opinion. However, this doesn’t mean it did comedy justice, either. There were parts of it trying too hard to be funny, and if you’ve seen my other reviews, you know I am not a fan of that “over-the-top” humor.
<Night of the Undead> is a very strange movie, to say the least. “Comedic thriller” combines two genres that are totally opposite of each other and is uncommon to see. And there’s a reason as to why it’s uncommon: it’s that hard to execute. To be able to give suspense as well as laughter to the audience is no easy task, and in my opinion, <Night of the Undead> wasn’t able to do either of those two well. The movie isn’t the worst thing, and may be worth the light watch. However, I can’t say I recommend it.
Ticket Price Value: $7
(Ticket Price Value is the price I would pay to watch the film again for the first time)

The specialists at HEASC Mold Removal say the fact that mold can grow almost anywhere is enough to alert most people in Highland, CA. To make things even worse, an even greater number of people our personnel in Highland, California has spoken with were unaware of the damage and health concerns mold can cause. Most of them were shocked to learn mold can virtually eat through the walls and furniture in their office or home, and they about fainted when they found that mold can also be toxic. The good news is that our mold removal business in Highland has the tools and the knowledge to handle the mold remediation procedure in the timeliest possible fashion, which decreases the potential effects of mold. Should you have questions about mold removal or if you are prepared to schedule a consultation, call our team at 888-547-2290 today.
Where Can You Locate Mold in Highland, CA?
Our mold remediation technicians suggest that the most common breeding grounds for mold within Highland, CA are furniture, sheetrock, and ceiling tiles. Ceiling tiles, furniture, and sheetrock all contain fibers that provide an excellent source of nutrients for mold. If your furniture is sitting on a damp floor, it is susceptible to being a breeding ground for mold. Ceiling tiles and sheetrock can also become wet or damp as the result of a dripping pipe. Right after a storm, you should conduct a quick analysis for standing water in your home or office. You may even want to have mold testing performed at least annually even if you are fairly sure your home is mold-free. In case you find that there’s mold on your property call a mold removal specialist right away.
Is Highland, CA Mold Hazardous?
Some kinds of mold in Highland, CA might not cause any health problems, but others are extremely toxic. Non-toxic molds might not cause health issues, but they will cause property damage and leave a gut-wrenching odor. Serious health problems can occur when you are dealing with myotoxins. Toxic molds will almost guarantee some allergy-like symptoms, such as a sore throat and a stuffy nose. Even though some of you may escape toxic mold fairly easily, others of you may end up with some major health problems. In some cases, exposure to toxic mold can even result in death. Due to the devastating effects toxic, or black mold, can cause, it is important to have a mold remediation treatment completed as quickly as possible.
Mold can be just instants away from wrecking your Highland, CA home and putting your health at risk if you do not hire a mold remediation company. Now that you know some of the common areas for mold to grow, you can do a thorough job of examining your property. If you have any concerns regardingblack mold removal or if you need to schedule a service, call HEASC Mold Removal at 888-547-2290 at this time.
What Hazards Does Mold Present in Highland, CA
Many people in the Highland, California area assume mold is fairly harmless, but this is far from the truth. In some cases, it may simply damage your Highland, CA home or office, but we have also witnessed people end up in the hospital due to health issues caused by mold. Consequently, we believe you should have a mold removal performed immediately. This is the only guaranteed way to avoid the issues mold loves to cause. Call our mold remediation staff at HEASC Mold Removal in Highland at 888-547-2290 today if you need to schedule an appointment or if you have concerns.
Health Issues in Highland, CA
Many people in the Highland, CA region have indicated to our mold removal specialists that they were completely unaware of the health problems associated with mold. The lightest of symptoms you will probably experience because of short-term mold exposure will include a cough and scratchy throat. If you delay a black mold removal, you are placing yourself in danger of even more serious respiratory issues. In fact, mold exposure can also lead to long-term respiratory problems, such as asthma, and in some cases, the results can even be fatal. A lot of people have indicated that mold symptoms are similar to the flu, but they continue to get worse.
Damage To Property in Highland, CA
Mold within the Highland, CA area likes to cause damage to property and respiratory issues. If you have moist and dark areas inside your home, mold will likely move in with you. Mold likes to cling to ceiling tiles, sheetrock and various furnishings as they tend to become damp and they offer plenty of nutrients. When given a little time, mold will destroy all of these surfaces with relative ease. Replacing this stuff will cost you a large amount of money, and you may not be able to find replicate items, which is very upsetting.
If your Highland, CA home provides plenty of moisture in under-lit areas, you are virtually providing mold with a free place to live and to grow its colony. If you are not cautious, mold may leave a negative impact on your life. As a result, it is an excellent practice to have HEASC Mold Removal execute annual mold testing on your property. Call our mold removal personnel at 888-547-2290 today if you have any concerns regarding mold removal or if you want to schedule an appointment.

How to maximize your small business tax returns today
For many small to mid-size business owners, tax time offers its own set of special challenges. You want to pay your fair share of taxes, but you'd like to hold onto every last dollar that you can under the law.
Unless you're an expert on the tax code or can afford to hire a high-price tax attorney or accountant, you should do a little research to keep from paying Uncle Sam more than is necessary.
Just as it's important to keep close tabs on every dollar you spend to operate your business, it's equally important to make sure you don't throw away your hard-earned money by overpaying on your income taxes.
Read related articles in Business Review USA
- Financial challenges facing small businesses in 2014
- The best budgeting apps for SMEs
- America's top business cities in 2014
Here are a few suggestions that may help you to trim your business's tax bill while still staying on the right side of the law:
Consider filing as S Corp
Small businesses have the option of filing as a C Corp or an S Corp. This decision in no way affects the makeup of your business and only governs the way in which you file your taxes.
As an S Corp, your business is taxed as a sole proprietorship or partnership, and you can pass through your company's profits or losses on the personal income tax returns of its shareholders, which may very well be you alone if you are the business's sole shareholder.
Filing as an S Corp allows your business to retain all the privileges -- and responsibilities -- of a C Corp while saving time and money by going the S Corp route. The big advantage of an S Corp filing is avoiding double taxation, according to an article in "Entrepreneur" by Nellie Akalp. If you are a shareholder in a business that files as a C Corp, the government levies taxes on the company's profits, as reported on the company's tax return. If the company then distributes a portion of its profits to shareholders, the government gets a second whack at those funds when you report them on your personal tax return.
If you opt to file your business's taxes as an S Corp, each shareholder (if more than one) reports his percentage share of the business's profits or losses on his personal tax return. There is no requirement for a separate filing of the business's income as a separate and distinct entity.
Stay abreast of tax law changes
Every New Year brings a number of changes in the tax laws that affect small business, as well as individuals and large corporations.
Some of these changes may give taxpayers a break, while others close loopholes and result in a higher tax bill. No matter how they affect the bottom line, it's your responsibility as a small business owner to stay on top of these changes.
One such change that goes into effect with your business's tax returns for 2013 is a significantly simplified option for claiming the home office deduction, which previously required complex computations daunting enough to discourage taxpayers from claiming the deduction at all.
Effective with your 2013 return, you can calculate your home office deduction by multiplying the total square footage of your office by $5. If you have set aside home office space totaling 120 square feet, you can deduct $600. The maximum annual deduction allowable under this formula is $1,500.
To ensure that your business is paying no more than its fair share of taxes, it's critical that you don't let any tax deductions slip by.
Here are just a few of the tax deductions that many businesses overlook, resulting in a higher tax bill than they should be paying:
- Interest: If your business takes out a loan to expand its operations or purchase new equipment, all of the interest and carrying charges associated with that loan are deductible.
- Bad Debts: If your best efforts to collect on your business's past-due accounts have failed, some of those bad debts may be deductible depending on the nature of your business and the specific debts. If a customer has failed to pay you for goods you sold, you can deduct that amount on your taxes. However, if you're in a service business and have been stiffed by a client, you cannot deduct for the time you spent providing the service.
- Auto Expenses: If your business has its own vehicle or you have used your personal vehicle to conduct company business, the expenses incurred can be deducted. If you have kept careful records of the exact expenses incurred while the vehicle was being used for business, you can deduct that amount on your taxes. Alternatively, you can use the standard mileage rate method, which is calculated based on the number of miles the vehicle was used for business. For tax year 2013, the standard mileage rate is 56.5 cents per mile.
Business Entertainment: If you entertain existing or prospective customers, Nolo.com says you're entitled to deduct 50 percent of the actual cost if:
- The occasion is directly related to business and if business was discussed at the event.
- The occasion is closely associated with the business and the entertainment involved takes place directly before or after a business discussion.
- Travel Expenses: If must travel in the pursuit of business, most of the expenses involved can be deducted on your taxes. Typically, such expenses include auto expenses, air fares, cab fares, lodging, meals, dry cleaning and laundry expenses, telephone calls, and tips.
- Advertising and Promotion: Your business can deduct the expenses incurred in reaching out to potential customers through advertising campaigns or special promotions. Nolo.com says that this would include promotional expenses incurred as part of a campaign to generate goodwill for the business, citing as an example sponsorship of a peewee football team. To ensure that such costs are deductible, your company must establish a clear connection between your business and its sponsorship of the team. This might be done by including your company name in programs for team games or lending your business name to the team itself.
Admittedly, these suggestions only scratch the surface of steps you can take to ensure you're paying the absolute minimum in income taxes.
Hopefully, however, this very discussion will inspire you to do further research on your own to find other ways in which to trim your business's tax bill.

We are often asked:
- “When should my child drink out of a regular cup?”
- “My child will make a mess with a regular cup. Do we really need to get rid of the sippy cup?”
Why Is It Important to Wean My Child to a Cup?
- To help develop more advanced feeding skills. Bottles/sippy cups facilitate forward tongue placement which can lead to a tongue thrust or a delay in oral motor skills such as tongue lateralization, munching, and rotary chewing. Most children tend to suckle the sippy cup just like they would a pacifier or bottle.
- To help prevent difficulties with speech sound production. As previously mentioned, bottles/sippy cups facilitate forward tongue placement which can affect back sounds and promote an interdentalized or lisped /s/.
- To help prevent tooth misalignment. Prolonged use of the bottle/sippy cup may cause malocclusions that will need to be fixed in adolescence.
- To help prevent tooth decay, the American Dental Association recommends transitioning to a regular cup by your child's first birthday.
We suggest weaning to a straw cup or open cup because both help position the child’s tongue correctly for speech and help them develop the strength and coordination necessary to be a more successful communicator.
- Listed below are tips to promote straw drinking. If you child has difficulty drinking from a straw, use a Capri Sun or juice box. Gently squeeze the box/pouch to raise the liquid up the straw.
- Remember, the shorter the straw, the less sucking effort required. You can cut off a regular straw to fit in a short cup. This will be easier than a full sized straw.

New York Mets manager Buck Showalter won’t return to manage the team in 2024, the skipper told reporters before Sunday’s season finale against the Philadelphia Phillies.
“I wish things could have gone better this season because Mets fans deserve that,” Showalter said. “It’s not the ending I wanted, but I still love the city and the players.”
Statement from Mets owner Steve Cohen:
“We are heading in a new direction, with a new President of Baseball Operations and we let Buck know we’ll be parting ways. We will begin the search for a new manager immediately. Buck is a generational manager, and we value what he has done for our team, including leading us to a 101-win season and postseason berth last year. The commitment and heart that Buck brings to the game will be felt by our organization for years to come. We wish Buck all the best in the next chapter of his career.”
Showalter managed the Mets to a disappointing 74-86 campaign this season. He helped them win 101 games last season.

2023 Corvette Z06 Coupe In Torch Red: First Live Photos7
The 2023 Corvette Z06 has amassed a huge following since Chevy first revealed the high performance machine. The unique naturally aspirated 5.5L V8 LT6 engine, which is the world’s most powerful naturally-aspirated V8 in a production car, is a big reason for this. Many fans, enthusiasts and observers have been salivating to see Chevy’s new track monster in all of its colors, and what we have for you here today is the C8 Z06 in the popular Torch Red hue.
GM Authority has captured these exclusive photos of the C8 Z06 in the Torch Red color (color code GZK). The model seen here is the 2023 Chevy Corvette Z06 Coupe (as opposed to the hardtop Convertible) riding on what appear to be Black forged aluminum wheels of the Spider design variety (RPO Code SOA).
Much like on the Red Mist C8 Z06 we showed you a few days ago, this Torch Red unit is equipped with Carbon Flash Exterior accents, including side vents and front/rear grille accents (EFR). This unit is also equipped with the optional black exhaust tips.
For the 2023 Corvette Z06, the Torch Red hue is available with six interior colorways, but not two others.
Available interior colorways:
- Jet Black
- Sky Cool Gray
- Adrenaline Red
- Adrenaline Red Dipped
- Natural Dipped
Not available interior colorways:
- Tension Blue/ Twilight Blue Dipped
- Ceramic White with Red stitching
Chevy has been struggling with parts constraints stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, and – as GM Authority was the first to report – orders for the 2023 Corvette Z06 have been heavily limited, further adding to the rarity of this desirable performance machine. In fact, the C8 Z06 is currently unavailable to order for the 2023 model year.
As a result of this, among those who were able to place an order, there’s been a huge demand for option-rich builds. As GM Authority reported in September, a majority of 2023 Corvette Z06 buyers are optioning the car to the gills.
As a reminder, the 2023 Corvette Z06 is equipped as standard with the naturally aspirated 5.5L V8 LT6 gasoline engine rated at a whopping 670 horses and 460 pound-feet of torque. Under the skin is the GM Y2 platform that underpins all C8 Corvettes, while production takes place at the GM Bowling Green plant in Kentucky.

I was wondering if GMA knew this car came out…
The C8 Stingray in my garage, is worth two of those that are unobtainable.

Might as well hang a few of those pictures in your garage. Probably the closest you’ll come to seeing one there.

No Police Station Was Burn in Lagos - Police
Hours after a video trend online showing how a police station in Lagos state is being burnt by hoodlum, the Police Public Relation Officer for Lagos State command; Olumuyiwa Adejobi has now debunked the news and video and reiterated that the police in the state will continue to do anything in their capacity to ensure adequate security in the state.
He made this known in a press release he made available yesterday night and was able to be obtained by Naijacrawl.
The statement reads:
The Lagos State Police Command has tactically repelled some hoodlums who attempted to set ablaze the Oke Odo Division of the command today 24th May 2021 and twelve (12) of them were arrested. The command wishes to state clearly that no life was lost and the Police Station was never burnt.
Similarly, the command has restored normalcy to Elemoro where another set of hoodlums attempted to set ablaze the newly built police station which accommodates the Area J Command, Ajah and Elemoro Division of the command, in connection with a case of fatal accident recorded in the area, on Monday 24th May, 2021.
The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, has deployed adequate personnel to the areas He has also ordered that the incidences at Oke Odo, Ile Epo and Elemoro be thoroughly investigated. The details of the incidences will be revealed as soon as possible.
The Commissioner of Police therefore appealed to the general public to remain calm and go about their lawful businesses as all hands are on deck to suppress any act of lawlessness and criminality in the state.

FROM April 2006 all wooden pallets must comply with new AQIS Standards for fumigation.
These pallets will have to be certified, stamped and will add significant costs to all Australian exporters. The answer is Optiledge.
For years, shippers have been trying to force-fit loads onto pallets, when the more logical, effective and economical method is to do the opposite - make the load carrier conform to the size and shape of the goods being shipped.
The revolutionary OptiLedge system makes use of a lightweight, L-shaped unit load transport device - the OptiLedge – as an alternative base for unit loads.
The OptiLedge is integral to the packaged product during its storage and distribution.
Available from Australian Warehouse Solutions , Optiledge is food grade suitable and totally reusable.

Spring is being sensed in the air by those out and about in the Cape winelands. Coincidentally, I was sent this eveniing images from a viticulturist (Rosa Kruger) and a winemaker-grapegrower (Eben Sadie).
Eben’s message was a WhatsApp: ‘Tim, this is Swartland today, el nino knocking on our door and spring pushing hard!”
Very incidentally, I noted these messages-with-pics soon after I had made an interesting discovery that I have no doubt has been made many times before: that a good brandy combines interestingly and happily with a good sparkling wine. Earlier I had partaken of both individually; then it suddenly struck me, late in the evening, that the two together might just do the trick. As they did. The two liquids in question were Kaapzicht’s 15 Year Old brand, and Wellington Winery’s La Cave Brut 2011, both of which were eminently acceptable on their own, but worked together very amicably.
Nothing to do with a spring day in the Swartland, except that I received the pictures drinking my blend next to my warm stove on a mildly wintry evening in Cape Town.

Mrs. Ladi Bala, wife of the former Deputy Kaduna Governor Yusuf Bala Bantex, has recounted how he died.
He spoke during his burial at his country home, Randiyam, in Kaura Local Government Area on Saturday.
Bantex, who died on Sunday July 11, 2021 at 64, was Deputy to Governor Nasir El-Rufai during his first term.
Mrs. Bala said her husband died as a peaceful and happy man despite the pains he suffered in sickness before his demise.
The burial Service, which took place at the Manchok township Square, attracted many well- wishers, family members and friends, including El-Rufai, his Deputy, Dr Hadiza Sabuwa Balarabe as well as Deputy Governors of Plateau and Nassarawa states among others.
In a sermon, General Secretary of Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) Rev. Yunusa Mmadu, admonished the people to take a cue from the good legacies he left behind.
Speaking on the topic: “one minute after you die”, which he took from Luke chapter 16: 19- 31, Rev. Mmadu said bereavement is a time to reflect on life and make amends.
El-Rufai, in his tribute at the burial, described late Bantex as a dependable, honest and loyal friend who believed in the potentials of the State and its people.
The Governor, who became emotional after enumerating some of the achievements they recorded, prayed to God to rest his soul.
The deceased eldest son, Mr. Banta Bala, thanked all who came to pay their last respects and appealed to people to always speak good of the living instead of waiting to realise how good a person is after death.
Various testimonies were given on the life and times of Bala from the church, family, friends, traditional and the political class among others.

Judo History Summary
- ⏳ Origins and Evolution: Judo originated in Japan, developed in the late 19th century by Jigoro Kano. He combined the ancient techniques of jujitsu with his own philosophy, creating a modern martial art emphasizing physical and mental development.
- 🚀 Rise to Prominence: Judo’s international recognition grew throughout the 20th century, particularly after its introduction as an Olympic sport in 1964. Legendary Judokas like Masahiko Kimura and Yasuhiro Yamashita contributed to its worldwide popularity.
- 🥇 Noteworthy Growth and Adaptation: Judo has experienced global expansion, increased accessibility, and adaptation to worldwide sporting events. Adaptive Judo initiatives and its inclusion in the Paralympic Games have made the sport more inclusive, securing its place in the international sports community.
Judo History Timeline
In 1882, Jigoro Kano founded the Kodokan Judo Institute in Japan. Kano, a martial arts enthusiast and educator, sought to create a modern martial art that integrated the best techniques of jujitsu with a focus on physical education and character development. The Kodokan became the center of Judo’s development, attracting students who would later become influential leaders and promoters of the sport.
Kano’s systematic instruction, grading system, and focus on Randori (free practice) and Kata (formal exercises) contributed to Judo’s distinct identity. He emphasized the principle of “maximum efficiency with minimum effort” and “mutual welfare and benefit,” which remain central tenets of Judo today.
Jigoro Kano became the first Asian member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1909. He dedicated his life to promoting Judo and other sports internationally, firmly believing in the educational value of sports and their role in fostering global peace and understanding. Kano’s involvement with the IOC would pave the way for Judo’s eventual inclusion in the Olympic Games.
In the early 20th century, Kano sent Judo instructors to various countries, including the United States, Europe, and South America, promoting Judo’s global growth. This international expansion led to the establishment of numerous Judo clubs and federations worldwide.
1940s – 1950s
Judo experienced a significant increase in popularity after World War II, particularly in the United States and Europe. During the Allied occupation of Japan, American servicemen became exposed to Judo and brought the martial art back to the United States, launching a boom in interest and participation.
During this period, Judokas like Masahiko Kimura and Isao Okano gained international fame for their skills and expertise. Their remarkable performances and achievements helped to enhance the profile of the sport and inspire a new generation of practitioners.
In 1964, Judo made its Olympic debut at the Tokyo Games. As the first martial art to be included in the modern Olympic program, it attracted a great deal of attention and interest. The event featured male competitors only, but its success solidified Judo’s status as a prominent international sport.
Japanese Judokas dominated the first Olympic Judo competition, with Takehide Nakatani, Isao Okano, and Akio Kaminaga winning gold medals. Their victories reinforced Japan’s reputation as the birthplace of Judo and further propelled the sport’s popularity.
1980 – 1990s
In 1980, Judo was included in the inaugural World Games, a multi-sport event organized by the International World Games Association (IWGA) for disciplines not featured in the Olympics. This inclusion helped to increase Judo’s visibility and acknowledgment in the global sports community.
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, legendary figures such as Yasuhiro Yamashita and Ryoko Tani emerged, capturing numerous world titles and Olympic medals. Their extraordinary achievements and iconic status inspired countless athletes and played a crucial role in Judo’s growing influence around the world.
Women’s Judo became an official Olympic sport in the 1992 Barcelona Games, reflecting the growth and development of women’s participation in the sport. This milestone marked a vital step towards gender equality in Judo and showcased the talents of female Judokas worldwide.
The inaugural women’s Olympic Judo competition featured names like Miriam Blasco, Cecile Nowak, and Odette Giuffrida, who would secure their places in sporting history as pioneers and champions for women in the martial art.
In 2012, the International Judo Federation (IJF) introduced the Judo World Tour, encompassing the annual World Championship and various high-level events. This move brought Judo to new cities, reaching new audiences and providing invaluable experience and exposure to athletes.
The Judo World Tour events have been instrumental in supporting the sport’s global growth and development, showcasing the talents of Judokas from emerging Judo nations and promoting greater visibility for the sport.
Who invented Judo?
Judo was invented by Jigoro Kano in 1882. Kano used elements of different Japanese martial arts to develop this unique discipline.
How did Judo become so popular?
Judo became popular because of its distinct focus on flexibility, mental strength, and technique over brute power. Its inclusion in the Olympic Games since 1964 also contributed to its worldwide recognition.
Where did Judo originate?
Judo originated in Japan, developed as a physical, mental, and moral practice by Jigoro Kano.

Hybrid nanosystems consisting of star-like copolymer Dextran-graft-Polyacrylamide in the anionic form (D-g-PAA(PE)), silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), and cisplatin (cis-Pt) have been synthesized in water and characterized by TEM, DLS, FTIR, and UV-Vis spectroscopies. It is shown that cis-Pt forms a complex with carboxylate groups of the polymer. For the ternary system Polymer/AgNPs/cis-Pt, a change in the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance of a polymer molecule (due to the complexation with cis-Pt) and the aggregation of macromolecules, as well as to some agglomeration AgNPs, are revealed. The decrease of the antitumor efficiency of the hybrid ternary nanosystem Polymer/AgNPs/cis-Pt in comparison with the Polymer/cis-Pt system is discussed.

The laser-induced aggregation in the thermosensitive dextran grafted-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) copolymer/Ag nanoparticles (D–g–PNIPAM/AgNPs) hybrid nanosystem in water has been observed. The laser-induced plasmonic heating of Ag NPs causes the Lower Critical Solution Temperature (LCST) conformation transition in D–g–PNIPAM/AgNPs macromolecules which shrink during the transition. The shrinking decreases sharply the distance between the silver nanoparticles that launches the aggregation of Ag NPs and the appearance of plasmonic attractive optical forces acting between the nanoparticles. It has been shown that the approach of the laser wavelength to the surface plasmon resonance in Ag nanoparticles leads to a significant strengthening of the observed aggregation, which proves its plasmon nature. The laser-induced transformations in the D–g–PNIPAM/AgNPs nanosystem have been found to be essentially irreversible that differs principally them from the temperature-induced transformations. Such fundamental difference proves the crucial role of the optical forces arising due to the excitation of surface plasmons in Ag NPs.

05.01.2021: Jamie Njoku-Goodwin writes for Times Red Box on how we can restart the live music industry when it’s safe.
Britain’s live music scene is the envy of the world, a national asset that generates billions of pounds for the economy, supports thousands of jobs across the country, and draws millions of music tourists to all four corners of the UK.
It boosts our global reputation and plays a key role in our regions and communities too: a 110,000-capacity festival can be worth more than £27m to the area it takes place in, as the Music Venue Trust estimates that for every £10 spent on a ticket for a live music event, £17 goes back into the local economy.
Covid-19 has been devastating for the sector and all those who work in it. Live events thrive on social contact. As that has been restricted, our industry has struggled to survive — and while the public health measures have been necessary to combat the pandemic, they have dealt a cruel blow to what has always been a proudly successful and self-reliant industry.
As a responsible sector, we have been doing everything we can to make live music environments safer. That includes installing new ventilation and air purification systems that dramatically reduce the risk of transmission, working with the government to develop new guidance, and using rapid testing to keep infections out of event spaces.
We are doing this not just to make our industry safe from the current threat; we want to insulate the performance sector from future epidemics too. In our increasingly globalised world, we can no longer assume that pandemics are a once-in-a-century occurrence. Our ambition is therefore to make live music events some of the country’s safest environments for social contact. We don’t know when the next pandemic will strike, but as an industry we are determined to be ready for it when it does.
The public health risks are not the only challenge we have faced. Covid-19 has had devastating economic consequences too, with huge ramifications on cost, confidence and certainty.
Much of the live music sector works to long lead times, with many festivals and large events requiring at least six months of planning in advance. While the pandemic is worsening today, ministers speak of “light at the end of the tunnel” and a spring “end date”, but it is not clear what this means for us as a sector. Without more clarity from the government on when events will be allowed to take place without social distancing, the sector will have neither the notice nor the confidence to plan major events this year.
The challenge is being made additionally difficult by the fact that we have struggled to secure adequate insurance for events. The commercial insurance market is not currently offering viable Covid-19 cancellation policies for festivals, and the financial risk of planning a major event without proper insurance is too great for many organisers to bear. This market failure should be urgently addressed by the government, as the lack of viable insurance options is the biggest barrier to festivals and live music events taking place in 2021. Germany and Austria have both created funds to cover the cancellation costs of events. With other countries acting to protect their events industries, it is vital that the UK does not get left behind.
As infection rates soar across the country and tighter restrictions loom, now may seem a strange time to talk about saving summer. However, while the outlook for the next few months looks grim, if the vaccine rollout goes to plan and ministers’ optimism about a spring end point are borne out, then the middle of the year could be the start of the national post-pandemic recovery.
To be clear, we are not asking to open as a sector before it is safe to do so. But now is when the key decisions about the summer events season are being taken, and if organisers do not have the confidence to plan then we will soon see major cancellations.
The UK boasts a world-leading live music scene: Glastonbury, Latitude, Parklife, Boomtown and the Proms, to name but a few. When the time comes to recover from this pandemic, our world-famous festivals can help drive an economic and a cultural revival. But without urgent action now to provide certainty and security for our live events industry, many major festivals will not have the confidence or preparation time to go ahead this year. This would be a disaster for our sector — and a huge loss for the country.Back to news

MYANMAR – The junta council issued a directive, ordering all Myanmar citizens working abroad to send back 25% of their monthly salaries via the junta regime’s banks, threatening to ban those who don’t comply from working overseas for three years and to block them from renewing their passports.
The directive was issued after junta leader and terrorist war criminal Min Aung Hlaing said at the junta council meeting on August 18, 2022 that there were millions of Myanmar people working abroad and ordered that their income must flow back to Myanmar.
The directive will come into action starting September 1 and it was mentioned that those who don’t comply with the junta council’s orders will be banned from working overseas for three years.
“Family members of those working abroad are required to open bank accounts at the private banks in Myanmar. Then the person working abroad has to transfer 25% of their salary to that account either monthly or every three month. Those who don’t do so will not be allowed to have their passports renewed overseas and if they returned to Myanmar, they will be banned from working overseas for three years, according to the notice from (junta) Ministry of Labour,” said an official of a Yangon based agency sending workers to Japan.
“This is such a blatant attempt to get their hands on foreign currency. Definitely no one will send back. Entire families will move away (overseas), for sure. This is all infuriating, asking for 25% like some mistresses,” said a youth.
Meanwhile, the National Unity Government (NUG) Ministry of Labour issued an announcement that the Myanmar nationals working abroad need not heed the junta council’s orders.
NUG announced on September 8 that any agency or person pressuring to send back the money by cutting off from the wages of Myanmar workers abroad or other methods will be facing serious action.

This is a tree outside my bedroom window (on the eastern side of my house). It had a lot of snow blown onto its limbs during the blizzard we had last weekend - a bit of snow continued to stick to the branches, even a couple days later.
However, add a sunny, seemingly "warm" winter day, and some of the snow starts melting.
But then, when the temps dip to around zero, all that melting snow turns icy.
Then we get a lovely "glittery" tree.

Looking good, Kendall Jenner! The model flaunted her runway-ready figure in a skimpy sports bra and sheer leggings while enjoying a birthday hike with pal Hailey Baldwin on Nov. 3. No wonder Victoria’s Secret wants her so bad!
No one does off-duty style quite like Kendall Jenner. The 20-year-old model was spotted showing off perfectly toned abs and fit physique during a birthday hike with fellow model Hailey Baldwin, 18, on Nov. 3. Kendall rocked a tiny sports bra and sheer, skin-tight leggings for the adventurous outing, proving that she most definitely has what it takes to rock the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway this month! What do you think of her laid-back look?
Kendall may have been the epitome of sexy-chic during her star-studded 20th birthday party at The Nice Guy in Hollywood on Nov. 2, but she opted for a much more casual look while hiking with her gal pals the following morning. The leggy supermodel flaunted her fit physique in a grey crop top and see-through leggings that showed off her butt, while carrying her Ullu leather iPhone 6 case. No wonder she was hand-picked to star in the 2015 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show — girl is on TOP of her fitness game!
After the adventurous outing, Kendall and Hailey treated themselves to a pampering session at Los Angeles’ Now Spa, where they met up with their partner-in-crime Gigi Hadid, Daily Mail reports. Despite partying the night away beforehand, the famous trio looked fresh-faced and flawless, and no doubt looking forward to a perfecting their already glowing skin. Seriously, we must know their secret?!
The girls reportedly had a blast at the star-studded bash, which included the likes of Justin Bieber, Nick Jonas and Kanye West. Drake was reportedly also on hand to make sure her party was extra special, giving a live performance of his infamous “Hotline Bling” dance moves! “At one point during the party, Drake’s club banger “Hotline Bling” came on and it was over! Everyone stopped what they were doing and started dancing,” a source told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Drake started doing his dorky dance moves from the video and and people started to form a circle around him to watch him go. It was awesome. Kendall even jumped in the circle and started to dance with him a little bit too.”
Oh what we would have done to be a fly on the wall at that party. Tell us HollywoodLifers — do you think Kendall has the best 20th birthday of all time? Sound off below!

Too bad Meprolight just didn't make the rear sight a peep sight.
For me, Im glad they didnt. Forward mounted peep sights dont work like a true peep, and are just a distraction. Lighting them wouldnt make them any better.
Their AK rear works fine as a rear sight, they just need to reduce the size of the vials if you want them lit.

Do not mind anything that anyone tells you about anyone else. Judge everyone and everything for yourself.
If you put shame in a Petri dish, it needs three things to grow exponentially: secrecy, silence and judgment.
When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.
The senses do not deceive us, but the judgment does.
We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.
Be curious, not judgmental.
Failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day.
Nothing is more dangerous than a friend without discretion; even a prudent enemy is preferable.
My philosophy of leadership is to surround myself with good people who have ability, judgment and knowledge, but above all, a passion for service.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

Congrats, you’re going to be a father. It’s definitely a huge, life changing event. If you haven’t yet realized, changes are going to come. But that’s nothing to be afraid of. Although, new responsibilities are at hand and you do have to care for a new life, it’s an exciting time.
Fatherhood brings about newfound accountability-a sense of responsibility for a new life is nothing to be taken lightly. Things do change. As a matter of fact, the transition can be a tough period, both emotionally and physically. Caring for a new life can takes it toll. It may be hard to realize just how much your life changes when you’ve got a child to care for.
Fatherhood is a huge event. It changes you. The life you knew before won’t be the same.
Obviously, this brings up some tensions coupled with a good deal of anxiety and apprehension. When a huge, life changing event such as becoming a new dad is at hand, some people tend to panic, others become distraught and frustrated. But the good news is that these reactions are normal. It’s a very natural reaction.
It can be a difficult time in fact, but confronting the common fears that new dads and dads to be are facing can be quite helpful.
Some widespread fears that tend to plague new fathers and fathers to be include, money, health and life changes.
A somewhat chief problem or issue that tends to come about when a new baby is being brought into the home is money. Pocketbooks do get tighter with a new child. Most new parents will probably spend at least $10,000 in the first year alone.
A young child needs diapers, special food, medical attention, clothes, toys, and the list goes on. It’s not exactly cheap to raise a child; but keep in mind too, that expenses can easily be reeled in. A budget needs to be made and stuck to. Of course, there will be some things that you have to give up, going out on the town, for instance, or getting new cars and gadgets may have to hold off. But remember too, that all a baby really needs is love.
Yet another topical worry or apprehension that many new fathers face concerns itself with health. Fathers and mothers are alike are worried about whether or not their child will born without any serious afflictions. A lot of things could go wrong. The question of what happens should your child suffer from an incurable disease or disorder is on every parent’s mind. The facts should, however be more than reassuring; the overwhelming majority of children around 97% are born without any significant health concerns whatsoever. The only thing a parent needs to concentrate on is how to give the best love and care to their child. Positive thoughts are essential.
Yet another apprehension that tends to distress all new fathers and fathers to be is the fear of being an inadequate or bad parent. It is, of course, a very common fear. Yet, the mere fact of being worried simply reinforces the reality that you will be a good father. Caring goes a long way.
When it comes to being a father just remember all you need is love.

Wayward Pines, Idaho, is quintessential small-town America — or so it seems. Secret Service agent Ethan Burke arrives in search of two missing federal agents, yet soon is facing much more than he bargained for. After a violent accident lands him in the hospital, Ethan comes to with no ID and no cell phone. The medical staff seems friendly enough, but something feels…off. As the days pass, Ethan’s investigation into his colleagues’ disappearance turns up more questions than answers. Why can’t he make contact with his family in the outside world? Why doesn’t anyone believe he is who he says he is? And what’s the purpose of the electrified fences encircling the town? Are they keeping the residents in? Or something else out? Each step toward the truth takes Ethan further from the world he knows, until he must face the horrifying possibility that he may never leave Wayward Pines alive…
©2012 Blake Crouch (P)2012 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
Ethan Burke, secret service agent, is sent to Wayward Pines, Idaho to find and retrieve two missing federal agents. He soon discovers that things aren't quite what they seem to be in Wayward Pines.
I won't give anything away, but I loved the ending, it was surprising; it left me wanting more, so I immediately moved onto "Wayward". Thank goodness I read this after the series was finished so I didn't want to wait for the next book.
Have a renewed interest in books after falling in love with audio books. I am listening to all different genres and exploring different authors.
I started to read this series before the tv show. The series is SOOO much better than the tv show.
The first in the series is actually my least favorite. The 2nd and 3rd book are much better. I understand the reviews from others where the book reminds of The Twilight Zone show.
The resolution was a little too pat. I feel that even though it was a 'hammer blow' as many people have said, it was more of a cop out than it could have been.
I didn't sleep an entire evening listening to this. I HAD to find out what was happening. The first 3/4's of this story is pure strange bliss. Anything was possible. I loved it. Pure bliss.
Very much worth listening to. I will look forward to listening to more Crouch books.
Avid reader, reviewer, blogger and budding author.
Definitely a must listen to audio. Pretty well written and narrated.
The Shuddering by Ania Ahlborn
Ethan, of course.
They are making it into a TV show! I'm so excited!!!
What a wild ride this story was! Ethan Burke wakes up in the picturesque town of Wayward Pines with no memory of who he is, or how he got there. As the minutes tick by he regains bits and pieces of his memory, certain that he is a Secret Service agent that was sent to the town to search for clues about the disappearance of two other agents. Straight away Ethan notices there is something amiss in the not so quant town. And the town sheriff is a mean old bugger.
I was intrigued pretty early on, especially when the different realities inside Ethan's mind began to merge. Every time I thought I had it all figured out, the author threw me another curve ball. There were a few holes in the story, but this is the first book in a trilogy so I am confident they will be filled somewhere along the way.
If you are a fan of the Twilight Zone and Twin Peaks then you have to read this mind bending story.
Something is not right in Wayward Pines, Idaho - that much is obvious from the start. After that Blake Crouch slowly reveals just how wrong things are as you experience the story from the perspective of Secret Service Agent Ethan Burke. Ethan is not the type to let things go and the more he peels back the onion the more bizarre things get.
If your listening experience is like mine then you will formulate and discard many theories as you listen until the big reveal finally comes. The reveal itself was a surprise but it wasn't completely fulfilling as some of the explanation given didn't resonate well with me. In order to avoid spoilers I really can't say more about it other than the author does explain it all and doesn't leave you hanging.
This story is like one long Twilight Zone episode so if you like that type of fiction then give it a go otherwise this is not for you.
I wasn't sure where this was headed. But it was a surprise. If there are more I will check them out. Easy to listen to.
I love all genres of books. However, when I listen to audio books as I clean, garden, drive they are better with a lot of heat!
In "Pines," Blake Crouch has created an intriguing tale of mystery that will keep readers guessing till the end. Crouch created believable characters to people the mystifying town he creates in "Pines." Though, the main character, Ethan Burke, at times seemed a little off his game as a secret service agent
Waking on his back in a field on the edge of a town called Wayward Pines somewhere in Idaho, Ethan Burke, a secret service agent, has no memory as to who he is or where he is; only that he is surrounded by mountains and a beautiful blue sky. Try to sit up he finds he is injured and dazed. With no identification, money, or cell phone on his person Ethan treks into the town looking for answers. As bits and pieces of Ethan's memory return, the peaceful idyllic appearing town of Wayward Pines is not what it appears to be on the surface. For one thing he just cannot seem to get in touch with anyone on the outside of town beyond those scenic mountains. Although the people living in the Victorian style houses about town seem friendly enough at first, Ethan begins to wonder about the strange looks he receives and why no one wants him to leave.
Crouch has written a novel in which the words flow with a tempo that makes the reading easy and enjoyable. Also, Crouch easily conveys a sense of suspense within the mystery of the goings on in Wayward Pines. This mystery, science fiction, thriller will keep you wanting answers and therefore keep the pages turning.
However, during the first 100 or so pages (the book I have is 329 pages) I thought I was reading the script from an old Twilight Zone episode I had seen on television as a youngster. This is not to say the novel was disappointing. Quite the opposite, Blake Crouch's plot had similarities up to that part in the plot. As I continued to read the plot soon revealed itself to be quite different from that point on and Crouch proved inventive by conjuring up an interesting ending.
Crouch is not on a plane with King, or Koontz, yet. He does show potential for someday being on par with them. In summation this novel may not appeal to everyone, but if one takes time to read all the reviews I am sure many will decide to read "Pines." I give it 4 Stars; the final twist near the end (50 pages or so) boosted it from a 3 Star. It had a pleasing ending that was satisfying
Good story, well written and keeps you speculating until the truth is revealed. I really enjoyed this novel and will get book 2.Touches of 'The Wicker Man' and 'The X Files' plausible characters and fast paced. Well worth a punt .
"Don't miss this one!"
Vivid. Imaginative. Terrifying.
Brave New World and 1984. An imaginative and frightening vision of a possible future;
I sincerely hope Blake Crouch has got it completely wrong!
'You can check out any time you like... but you can never leave!'
"Gripping story. Keeps you on your toes."
This is a terrific book, gripping from the very start and very clever. It keeps you guessing. As the story progresses it is hard to pin it down to a specific genre - at some point it seems to be a psychological thriller but then maybe it is a crime mystery or maybe a horror or even a scifi? I looked for these audiobooks after enjoying the TV series based on the books so, before I started I already knew the big secret 'reveal' of the plot but this didn't spoil it for me. It is similar enough to the TV series to have the same haunting atmosphere but different enough to still be fresh. The narrator does a pretty good job reflecting the tension and mystery. A little gory for the squeamish but I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone looking for something exciting, compelling and a bit out of the ordinary.
"All are welcome at Wayward Pines!"
I did like the idea of the story, but quite a few times it was a little slow going.
I thought his performance was ok. However he could have been a little more creative with some of the character's voices.
There are already 2 follow-up books to the Pines.
Gripping storyline and moody athmosphere, you get attached to the characters, i was so captivated i listened to it in a day without noticing!
"A different kind of dystopia"
I love dystopic fiction and this trilogy was entertaining. The premise was refreshing and I'd say they were very easy and quite compelling to listen to.
A brilliant twist and well read, this is a great novel, and will definitely look for other audiobooks by same Auther
"A real must listen"
The best by far and I have listened to a lot. Loved it.
Watched films like this but not listened to a book like this.
Love listening to his voice, compare him to Sean Barrett
Yes WOW got this is good
Can`t wait to listen to the next book in the trilogy
Was hooked on the tv show and got into the books straight away. Love it
"Good if over-hyped"
The guy on the cover.
Great premise but it felt like it was being dragged out by the end.

Happy Diwali to all! Diwali is a time of great celebration and joy in India–it is the festival of lights. I have fond memories of visits to India during Diwali. Our normally quiet street would be lit up by all varieties of fireworks. There was the ‘chakra’ or discus that once ignited would spin around rapidly creating a bright circle of light and throwing off sparks in massive rays onto the street. There were others that spewed forth a bright fountain of light and others that made loud booming noises and bright flashes of light. And of course, there was always food, plenty of food, and always something sweet.
|The garnishes for Shiro: Center-golden raisins and slivered almonds, Clockwise-slivered pistachios, whole cardamom seeds, powdered cardamom, coarsely ground cardamom|
Diwali is a holiday that celebrates the triumph of good over evil. It is the day that King Rama, the seventh incarnation of the god Vishnu, defeated the evil king Ravana and returned triumphantly from a 14 year exile back to his hometown of Ayodhya. It is said that on the day of his return, all of the citizens of his kingdom lit lamps to light his pathway home and celebrate his return.
|Saffron dissolving in milk|
Diwali is also the day that we honor the goddess Lakshmi, Vishnu’s consort and the goddess of wealth and prosperity. It is said that Lakshmi will come and specifically bless the home that has been illuminated the most brightly and beautifully. She bestows upon the family wealth, prosperity, and many blessings. Families across India light up their homes with brass or silver lamps filled with cotton wicks soaked in rich and pure ghee (clarified butter). It truly is a spectacular sight.
|The Ingredients: Clockwise from top: the garnishes, sugar, saffron milk, coarse ravo|
Saffron Sweetened Cream of Wheat ~ Shiro
|Prep:||Cook:||Yield: serves 4||Total:|
A delicious Gujarati dessert made of milk, coarse semolina, sugar, and cardamom. A delicious way to celebrate the Indian festival of lights!
- 1 cup coarse soji/rava, or coarse semolina, or cream of wheat.
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 cups milk, preferably 2% or whole milk
- 1.5 - 2 Tbsp. ghee
- 1 pinch saffron, gently crushed between your fingers.
- 2 Tbsp. golden raisins
- 2 Tbsp. slivered almonds
- 1 tsp. slivered unsalted pistachios
- 0.5 tsp. cardamom seeds
- 0.5 tsp. coarsely ground cardamom seeds
- 0.5 tsp. finely ground cardamom seeds
- Place the milk in a large saucepan. Add the saffron to the milk and stir to blend. Place on the stove and heat over medium-high heat.
- At the same time, melt the ghee in another large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the raisins and stir. Cook until the raisins swell and seem to turn opaque. At this time, add the soji/rava, half of the whole cardamom seeds, and one pinch of the powdered cardamom to the ghee and raisin misture and continuously stir for 3-5 minutes. The soji should seem to feel lighter as you stir and will darken just a bit and start to smell warm and toasty. Once you are able to see a bit of the ghee separate from teh grains at the bottom of the pot, the soji is done. Do not let the soji turn too dark otherwise it will be unable to absorb the milk.
- By this time, your milk should be on the verge of boiling. Turn off the heat under the milk and carefully pour it into the soji pan. Add half of the almonds. Whisk to blend and make sure that there are no lumps. Once the mixture begins to thicken, switch to a spatula and continuously stir. It will continue to thicken and reduce. Cook until the mixture looks shiny and some ghee is visible at the bottom of the pan when the mixture is scraped away. (When stirring always go down to the bottom of the pan otherwise the milk may burn.)
- At this point, add the sugar and stir continuously. As soon as the sugar is added, the whole mixture will seem to melt and become more liquidy. This is normal and to be expected. Continue to stir for about one more minute and ensure that there are no lumps left and the sugar is fully incorporated into the soji mixture. Turn off the heat, cover with the lid ajar, and let sit for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes have passed, uncover carefully ensuring that no water drips into the pot from the condensation on the lid. Give the shiro a few brisk stirs and transfer it into a serving bowl. Garnish with the remaining cardamom, almonds, and pistachios, and serve. Enjoy!
Soji/Rava is available in all Indian stores. Please look for the variety that specifies that the soji/ravo is 'coarse' otherwise the shiro may end up being more like porridge. Unsalted pistachios are also available at Indian stores. If you can't find any, buy shelled pistachios and soak them in water to wash off the salt and the skins and slice them with a small paring knife. Also, check out the links in the ingredients for online shopping.

Looks like I found my answer.
This is from this site: http://rmcavoy.freeshell.org/6to8.html
These years used non-interlocking engine mounts (aftermarket interlocking replacements are available). The frame halves of these mounts (perches) are made of steel and the engine halves are made of steel/rubber. Both halves of these mounts are specific to the engine (L6, small block V8, or big block V8). Therefore, both halves need to be replaced during an engine swap.
So, since the 6 cylinder engine I removed had steel chassis mounts and steel/rubber engine mounts, I would have to replace my chassis mounts. Which means I have to cut those existing mounts out.
