Center stage: Annual cultural dance competition takes place at UOG
On Monday night, practice for the Guma Rasan Acho Latte cultural dance group in Yona was at a 100-percent attendance. It's down to the wire before the group, led by Fafa'nague Brian Terlaje, hits the stage at the University of Guam Calvo Field House today.
Terlaje's 60 performers are part of 500 expected to participate in this weekend's annual 12th Annual Dinana Pa'a Chamorro Competition and Festival.
The island is invited to watch seven dance groups, including two visiting groups, share their interpretations of this year's theme, "Silabrasion I Manaina-ta" (Celebration of our Elders), Pa'a Tao Tao Tano Enterprise Manager Victor Lujan says. The two-day festival will showcase the importance of elders in Chamorro society. The competition and exhibition is designed to highlight the elders, he says.
This year's competition also will exhibit the ancient era of the Chamorro people, Terlaje says.
"A lot of tension is building because it is the last week," Terlaje says. "I know each of the groups participating are not going to give the everyday performance. They're going to go all out on the stage and give the best of the best."xhibit the ancient era of the Chamorro people, Terlaje says.
That means individual gumas and groups, like Terlaje's, will spend hours practicing by themselves and then into the late evening with Chamorro Dance Master and Pa'a Creative Director Frank Rabon. Groups will be coming out with guns blazing for the showcase and competition.
"The dancing part, I always try to tell my students, is that it's not the most crucial part of what we do — it's not the most important part," Terlaje says. "The most important part is the message we give to understand, share and absorb what the other gumas or groups are doing, what their interpretations are of the theme chosen. It's even though it is a competition, we never go in thinking we're going to win. It's always been about the sharing of new ideas, new steps, new techniques and also just being there and absorbing all of the information and messages that all the different gumas share."
In his 11th year participating, Terlaje will be seeing some personal milestones at the cultural festival. Of the 500 performers, three groups are those that have branched from Guma Rasan Acho Latte, including one group from Japan.
In general, it's also an important year for the performers because Pa'a and its members are gearing up for the Festival of the Pacific Arts being held next year on Guam.
"It's going to be a historic and life changing event, not just for my guma, but for everyone on island," he says. "It's our time for our island to show case and shine because we never know when the festival will come back to our island. This may be our only chance to show the people and show the world who we are. Now we have something to call our own and now we have all of these thousands of dancers who know what is Chamorro dance and what is cultural art."

Google failed in a recent attempt to sneak a Chrome installer into the Microsoft Store when Microsoft realised this and took it down from their app market.
The app that was submitted by Google was greenlighted through Microsoft’s authentication process and thus made its way onto the store. The Chrome app was actually nothing more than a link to download the desktop version of Google Chrome rather than being its own Windows 10 version.
People who downloaded, installed and then opened the Chrome app found only a message prompting them to download the desktop version of Chrome. Users expected a UWP (Universal Windows Platform) functional version of the Google web browser for their windows 10 devices, not a glorified link to existing software.
The app had vanished hours later, having been taken down by Microsoft. Microsoft told news media that the Chrome app was taken down because it did not provide users with a “quality/valuable experience” as well as violating app store policy.
Sources who claim to be knowledgeable of Google’s intentions believe that this action was designed to combat copycats of Chrome that mislead users on the Microsoft Store. This did not however satisfy those seeking to know why Google thought this app would not be taken down as quickly as it did.
Chris Blume, a software engineer at Google, spoke on Twitter claiming that Microsoft had denied Chrome developers the tools needed to “protect users” on installations from the Windows 10 store. He said that Google made a “mini-app” to make sure that Windows 10 device users got a completely safe version of Chrome straight from the source.
Some were not pleased with Google’s actions, describing them as being hypocritical. One user pointed out that Google was showing dissatisfaction with Microsoft but not with Apple, which has similar restrictions on web browsers.
These restrictions helped to keep Apple’s Safari the most used web browser on iOS as the Chrome and Firefox alternatives on the Apple Store were forced to use the same architecture as Safari. Microsoft uses a similar practise with its replacement for Internet Explorer, Edge.
Chrome and Mozilla have not bothered to make Edge dependant mimics of their browsers because their desktop versions will run on Windows 10 anyway. Microsoft simply makes it harder to replace their Edge with a desktop emulation of Chrome or Firefox.
Given these facts it’s quite likely that Google’s stunt was little more than a poke at Microsoft for their policy. Chrome would probably like to remind Microsoft that their new browser hasn’t gained the same dominance that Internet Explorer once had.

Dog Sitting in Front Of Space Heater. Whether you’re an animal lover or not, you can’t deny that the idea of dogs sitting in front of space heaters does raise some eyebrows. What makes these dogs do this? Is it safe for them? Do they enjoy it? Dog sitting in front of space heaters may look funny, but sometimes humans are the ones with questionable behavior. Check out this article to learn more about why your pup might be sitting in front of the space heater and whether or not you should be concerned. You may be surprised!
Is dog sitting in front of space heaters bad for them?
If you keep your dog sitting for long periods near a warm space heater, you may be risking burns, poor health, and even death. But with cold weather here to stay until spring, it’s important to know what can happen. While some dogs may have no problem sitting in front of a space heater all day, others may become distressed. Because they don’t sweat as humans do, dogs feel heat differently than we do. In fact, only one breed—the Basenji—can tolerate high temperatures because of a genetic mutation that keeps their skin cool and their blood vessels dilated at all times. Most other breeds have dark pigmentation on their ears and noses that protect them from high temperatures but also make them more vulnerable to sunburn if they sit too close to an indoor heater.
Read More: Can dogs go into heat after 2 months?
What are the symptoms if your dog gets too hot
Dogs can actually suffer from heatstroke, and they’re more likely to than humans. Symptoms include excessive panting and drooling, fatigue, glazed eyes, and an elevated body temperature (over 104 degrees F). Those are all also symptoms of a dog that’s too cold—so pay attention to your pet. If you’re having trouble telling if he’s warm enough, get his tail up by wagging it; if it stays up even after he calms down, you may want to turn up your thermostat a bit. And remember that keeping him inside isn’t always enough; make sure to keep windows open for ventilation so that cool air can circulate around him as well.
What to do when dogs sit down too close to space heaters
There are a few things you can do to ensure that your dog stays warm without getting burned, including 1) Never leave your dog unattended while they sit too close to space heaters; 2) Only use dryer sheets if you’re sure they won’t irritate your pet’s skin; 3) Make sure there is enough space for them between a wall and floor-level heaters; 4) Replace any frayed cords on heating pads with fresh ones, and 5) Don’t leave your dog outside in below-freezing temperatures for extended periods of time.
When and how do you take them off heating devices?
It really depends on each pet. Some dogs can get too hot quickly and may need to be moved away from heat sources like fireplaces, space heaters, vents, etc. Even dogs that are acclimated to indoor heating sources still need to be monitored since they could get used to being warm and then start getting too hot when a fire starts burning low. Dogs that have issues with their nervous system (like seizures) should never be near anything that generates extreme heat. Bottom line… it’s best to err on the side of caution by keeping an eye on your dog whenever he/she is near anything that can give off lots of heat – whether it’s your fireplace logs or their crate heater at night when you’re not home.

Agencies push toward portfolio management for lines of businesses
- By Jason Miller
- Apr 04, 2006
As agencies prepare their fiscal 2008 budget submissions, the Office of Management and Budget is expecting fewer business cases and more use of portfolio management, according to one federal CIO.
Lisa Schlosser, Housing and Urban Development Department IT chieftain, said the consolidation of business cases into lines of business portfolios is one of a handful of trends that are emerging in agencies.
'We had 13 systems for single-family mortgages that all had their own business cases, and we merged them into one last year,' Schlosser said yesterday at the Performance Institute's 8th Annual Government Performance Summit in Washington. 'More and more, we have to ask what businesses align with the technology within the line of business. OMB will be looking for more of that.'
Schlosser said the impetus to use portfolio management may not be entirely new, but the push by OMB to spend more money on mission-critical systems and less on infrastructure applications is making it more important.
HUD, for instance, has 10 lines of business, meaning it likely will submit 10 business cases this year. It used to submit to OMB upwards of 24.
'It was amazing to see how many redundant systems we have,' she said. 'It is a great exercise to go through.'
As agencies spend less on infrastructure, they will shift money toward business systems. HUD, Schlosser said, will increase the amount of money spent on mission-critical applications to 56 percent of its 2006 IT budget, up from 39 percent in 2005.
Schlosser said her agency did that, in part, by outsourcing its human resources and financial management services to agency centers of excellence.
In another trend Schlosser is seeing, CIOs are staying longer in their positions. On average, most stay about 18 months, but Schlosser said many are staying longer.
Because of that, she said, many IT managers are focusing on longer-term issues such as how projects are mapped to agency strategic plans throughout their lifecycles, and the control and evaluation part of the capital planning process.
'We are focused on results and performance,' she said. 'It is a real different evolution of where IT is going.'

The expansive interpretation of meal and rest break regulations continues in Washington State, as the state's highest court rules that agricultural piece-rate workers are entitled to separate paid rest breaks. The court reasoned that hourly workers remain "on the clock" during rest breaks, and thus piece-rate workers should receive the same treatment.
In 2013, two agricultural workers sued their employer on behalf of hundreds of migrant and seasonal workers. The workers handpicked berries, and the employer paid them a "piece rate" wage based on their productivity—in other words, a flat amount per pound or per box of fruit harvested. As part of their lawsuit, the workers claimed they did not receive paid rest breaks.
The relevant regulation provides: "Every employee shall be allowed a rest period of at least ten minutes, on the employer's time, in each four-hour period of employment. For purposes of computing the minimum wage on a piecework basis, the time allotted an employee for rest periods shall be included in the number of hours for which the minimum wage must be paid." WAC 296-131-020(2) (emphasis added).
The court focused on the meaning of the phrase "on the employer's time," concluding it required pay separate from the piece rate for rest breaks. The court looked not only to the plain language of the regulation, but also emphasized its obligation to advance the intended purpose of the regulation. In line with its previous decisions, which interpreted the meal and rest break regulations "in a way that protected workers' rights," the court refused to "incentivize missed rest breaks at the expense of the employee's health."
The court rejected the employer's interpretation of the regulation, which built pay for rest breaks into the piece rate instead of paying separately for rest breaks. The employer argued that this all-inclusive piece rate awarded more productive workers with greater earnings. The court, however, judged that this philosophy would encourage employees to work harder (and earn more) by skipping breaks. Such a result conflicted with Washington's evolving case law on meal and rest breaks and the state's intent to protect the health and welfare of employees.
The second question considered by the court was the rate of pay required for employee rest breaks. Following prior rulings that treated rest periods as hours worked, the court held that rest periods must be paid at the same rate as "active labor." Thus, pieceworkers are entitled to their regular rate of pay for rest break time. To calculate the regular rate, employers add the total piece rate earnings and divide them by the hours worked (excluding rest break time).
Demetrio v. Sakuma Brothers Farms Inc., Wash., Case No. 90932-6 (July 16, 2015).
Professional Pointer: Agricultural employers in Washington State who pay on a piece-rate basis may need to evaluate their practices to ensure compliance, including their rest break policies, calculation of pay for rest breaks, and reporting procedures for missed breaks.

Here is a Globe and Mail op-ed by Ed Morgan, a professor of international law at the University of Toronto:
Reactions to the Israeli seizure of the Gaza-bound flotilla have shared two traits: They have virtually all invoked international law, and they have virtually all been marked more by their rhetorical excess than their knowledge of international law.
Israel’s critics have levelled the phrases “war crimes” and “piracy,” while its supporters have invoked the spectre of “terrorism” and “weapons of mass destruction.” But when it comes to the Law of the Sea, they may all be out to sea. While much of the international law that gets tossed around at the United Nations is up for ideological grabs, the rules of engagement at sea are among the few islands of stability. It therefore behooves us to have a look at the accepted law before going overboard on politicized interpretation.
Israel and Hamas are in a state of armed conflict. That much is clear to everyone who has looked at the situation, from the General Assembly to the Human Rights Council in its Goldstone Report, which has stressed the need to conform to the laws of war. Accordingly, the accusation of piracy is inapt, since under both customary law and Article 101 of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea that applies only to acts done for private gain. Israel’s acts must be analyzed in terms of the law of naval warfare.
A blockade of an enemy’s coast is an established military tactic. It is recognized as a means at the Security Council’s disposal under Article 42 of the UN Charter where collective action is authorized. Likewise, as made clear in Article 539 of the Canadian Forces manual Counter-Insurgency Operations, it is an action that one belligerent can potentially impose on another, provided that the accepted conditions for the blockade are met.

The Maya calendar was not a good solar calendar as it had 365 days in a year which of course accrues error and shifts through the seasons. So its not correct to say it was more accurate than the Julian calendar – definitely not as a solar calendar which would naturally be the most useful to us

The Spanish claimed the natives all had their own villages and languages. They were all seperate states that were constantly at war with each other. They conquered the natives very easily because some cities became allies with the spanish and fought with the spanish to conquer other enemy cities. They also claimed they were cannibals who ate their enemies after battles. They also claimed that they thought the Spanish were somewhat gods and were astonished at their clothing, metal armor and weapons and big ships. They were also frightened by their horses that they brought over. It didn't take long for them to conquer each city and they realized pretty quickly that spreading diseases was an easy kill off for the natives. They knew all they had to do was get to the king of the city and kill him and the rest of the people in the city would surrender. They claimed the Aztecs were the same way. The cities were abandoned due to diseases killing off most of the natives that the spanish brought. As far as taxes of teotihuacan, the spanish said in journals that the smaller cities were pay taxes to the larger cities and this is one reason they hated each other. I believe they paid taxes in providing so much food to teotihuacan.
What about the Toltec Empire or the Mixtec Empire?

Washington, DC — The Interior Department limited its environmental review of oil industry plans for drilling in Arctic waters to veil plans for building a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and establishing year-round tanker traffic, according to documents released today by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER). The exclusion of these plans from agency environmental reviews allowed proponents to downplay potential effects on a host of marine species, including the polar bear, endangered bowhead whale, gray whale, Pacific walrus, seals, threatened eider, and other marine birds and fish.
The Interior Department’s Minerals Management Service (MMS) has announced that it will hold Chukchi Sea Oil and Gas Lease Sale 193 on February 6, 2008. Last week, the Interior Department’s Fish and Wildlife Service revealed that it would not meet a legal deadline for it to decide whether the polar bear, for which the Chukchi Sea is important habitat, should be listed under the Endangered Species Act.
What was not announced is that MMS also decided to handle industry oil and gas development plans on a piecemeal basis. Agency documents show that MMS Regional Director John Goll ignored protests by his own staff in keeping follow-on developments that Shell Oil disclosed to the agency out of any environmental reviews. These plans include an LNG facility and deployment of icebreakers and supply vessels to facilitate regular tanker traffic through dangerous Arctic waters.
“Interior wants to pretend that the nose under the tent has no camel attached to it,” stated PEER Executive Director Jeff Ruch, noting that today the House Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming opened hearings on the Chukchi Sea lease. “On the important question as to whether to open up our Arctic waters to oil development, the Interior Department should lay all the cards on the table rather than hiding an ace up its sleeve.”
At the same time, MMS has denied requests by conservation groups filed under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for documents that PEER has now posted. In fact, MMS is withholding the vast majority of documents that provide the basis for MMS’s environmental impact analysis. MMS has declared that roughly 5500 pages out of about 5781 pages of responsive material are exempt from production. It has redacted hundreds of pages, consisting principally of emails from MMS employees, by deleting the entire text of each email and virtually the entire text of each attachment.
Questions are being raised as to the wisdom of proceeding with the Chukchi lease sale before Endangered Species Act protections can be put in place. Revelations that MMS deliberately minimized the scope of industry plans only reinforces the impression that the Interior Department is bending rules in order to open the Chukchi, Beaufort and Bering Seas to petroleum development regardless of consequences.
“Congress should put the brakes on this stampede for lame duck leasing of federal oil and gas rights,” Ruch added, pointing to recent scandals at MMS involving multi-billion dollar oil royalty giveaways. “The Bush administration’s entire Arctic drilling agenda merits a hard look by Congress before going one step further.”

CD Review: Former Celtic Woman, Orla Fallon Releases "My Land"
Her voice stands out beautifully on the simple “Distant Shore” and shows us innocence in “Morning Has Broken”. The acapella version of “Down To The River to Pray” is so wonderful that you wish she did the entire album like this with the Dublin Gospel Choir. But they are not the only guests to appear on her album. The traditional “Red Is The Rose” features Tommy Flemming adding his award winning vocals to this duet. Orla puts her heart and soul into all of these performances, but you feel her dedication to Irish music in the title track, “My Land”. The album closes with a couple of fun live songs, “Spanish Lady” and “I’ll Tell Me Ma” featuring the legendary Irish band the Dubliners.
Orla Fallon’s “My Land” premiered on public television back in February, but has been repeated a number of times. Viewers that make a donation to their local public television station during broadcasts of “My Land” will receive either tickets to her upcoming tour, a DVD of the show or a copy of the soundtrack to the show. For a complete list of tour dates and information on obtaining a copy of her new release, visit Orla Fallon’s website at orlafallon.com.

Beijing: As India and Bangladesh resolved a
long-standing border problem during Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh`s Dhaka visit, China today said it would like to see
countries in South Asia improve their ties and build mutual
India and Bangladesh are important countries in South
Asia, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Jiang Yu told a
media briefing here, answering a question on Singh`s visit to
Bangladesh and the agreements reached between the two sides.
She said China would like to see countries in South Asia
improve their bilateral ties as well as build mutual trust and
make joint efforts to maintain peace, stability and
development in the region.
India and Bangladesh yesterday resolved a long-standing
border problem, signing a historic agreement on demarcation of
land boundary and exchange of 162 adversely-held enclaves, but
failed to sign any deal on sharing of Teesta and Feni rivers`
waters during Singh`s maiden visit to Dhaka.
Singh`s visit to Dhaka was being closely watched here as
China too had made strong efforts to woo Bangladesh with a
host of projects, including the offer to develop the strategic

China, which is constructing a network of oil pipelines
and roads through Myanmar, evinced an interest in extending it
to Chittagong to gain access to the platform in the Indian
Ocean for energy supplies.
Many Indian analysts described China`s attempts to
develop Chittagong port as well as those situated in Myanmar
and Sri Lanka as a long-term strategy to "encircle" India with
a "string of pearls," a claim denounced by their Chinese
counterparts as "Indian paranoia."
Singh`s visit to Bangladesh, especially the last-minute
postponement of signing of an accord on water-sharing of
Teesta and Feni rivers, was widely reported in the print and
TV media here.
"Water-sharing deal not expected to be signed" was the
headline in the state-run Global Times daily, while the
official CCTV carried an interview with Bangladesh Prime
Minister Sheikh Hasina`s adviser, who expressed serious
reservations over the failure of the two sides to sign the

Metal music has always been more than just a genre; it’s a way of life. From the thunderous riffs to the guttural vocals, metal has captured the hearts of millions around the world. But it’s not just the music that defines this subculture; it’s the merchandise that accompanies it. Metal merch has become a kingdom of its own, with an array of products that cater to the die-hard fans.
When you attend a metal concert, you’re not just there to listen to the music; you’re there to be a part of something bigger. And what better way to show your allegiance than by donning a band t-shirt? Metal merch has become a symbol of identity, a way for Inflames Store fans to proudly display their love for their favorite bands. From classic designs featuring iconic album covers to limited-edition prints, there is a t-shirt for every metalhead out there.
But the metal merch kingdom doesn’t stop at t-shirts. It extends to a wide range of products that cater to every aspect of a fan’s life. Want to show off your love for metal at the office? There are metal-themed mugs, pens, and even desk accessories available. Need something to keep you warm during those cold winter nights? Metal hoodies and beanies are here to save the day. The options are endless, and the only limit is your imagination.
One of the most sought-after items in the metal merch kingdom is the vinyl record. With its warm sound and large artwork, vinyl has made a comeback in recent years, and metal fans have embraced it wholeheartedly. From classic albums to new releases, metal bands are releasing their music on vinyl, giving fans a chance to experience their favorite songs in a whole new way. Collecting vinyl has become a passion for many metalheads, with rare and limited-edition pressings fetching high prices in the market.
But the metal merch kingdom doesn’t just cater to fans; it also supports the artists. With the decline in album sales, merchandise has become a crucial source of income for bands. Buying a t-shirt or a vinyl record directly supports the artists, allowing them to continue creating the music that fans love. In a world where streaming has become the norm, metal merch has become a lifeline for bands, ensuring their survival in an ever-changing industry.
The metal merch kingdom is not just about products; it’s about community. Metal fans are a tight-knit group, and wearing a band t-shirt or displaying a vinyl record is a way to connect with like-minded individuals. It’s a conversation starter, a way to bond over shared experiences and musical tastes. Metal merch has become a symbol of belonging, a way for fans to find their tribe in a world that often feels disconnected.
In conclusion, the metal merch kingdom is a testament to the power of music and the passion of its fans. From t-shirts to vinyl records, metal merch offers a wide range of products that cater to every aspect of a fan’s life. It’s not just about owning a piece of merchandise; it’s about being a part of something bigger. So, next time you attend a metal concert or browse an online store, remember that you’re not just buying a

For Christmas, my Mom & Dad gifted me a 3D printer. On Black Friday, mid Californian-roadtrip, I put in the order for an Ender 5 Pro with spools of black and white PLA filament. Sorry, but I was unable to contain my excitement and wait until Jesus’ supposed Birthday before using it
Feb 4, 2023
I saw a YouTube short showing these off and they looked handy. The design calls for some nuts and bolts which I don’t have any kits, so purchased this one which should come in handy for future projects too. Creating two better knobs, two caps, a body, and a holder will require
20g PLA filament, a
1" thick sandpaper strip, two
M4x20 bolts, and four
M4 nuts. I ended up Gorilla gluing the bottom nut. I used so much that it impacted the fit of the caps and had to cut away at the solidified glue with a knife and sand the base flat. I also labelled them with their grit using my Dymo I’ve been obsessed with.
Nut + Bolt Measuring Tool
Feb 2, 2023
The kit of nuts and bolts I bought arrived in a completely entropic state despite the organiser box it came in’s best efforts. To fight entropy I printed this metric nut and bolt measuring tool that will be stress tested on 480 pieces! Unfortunately I didn’t switch to black filament when it started oozing on the glyphs, so I precisely used a black pen.
Camera Hot Shoe Cover
Jan 20, 2023
I lost it! I’ve been using a little battery powered LED light that I got from work and use mainly for the odd work video call I make. I thought I stored it with my other camera stuff but it’s not there. Luckily, printing another should be piece of cake. I am now also noticing the LED light has 3 additional hot shoe mounts on it which I could have used to store the cover… Oh well, c’est la vie!
Now Spinning Shelf
Oct 26, 2022
I added a bunch of hexagon holes to the piece so it would print faster… That’s apparently a myth. They only save on material. That blog post says a good rule of thumb is adding surface area, which the “speed holes” do, increases print time.
Do the speed holes add surface area?
Shower Knob V2
Oct 23, 2022
After about 4 months it started getting loose and then one of the arms snapped, leading to its death on
Oct 1, 2022.
“It wasn’t Heather-proof” - @BarrSouth
I will attempt to ameliorate the loosening by making sure I use a high infill percentage. To strengthen the knob I will be making it more of a disk shape so the force hopefully distributes more evenly than before. I will also add vertical supports to each “prong” since to open and close the water you move the knob up and down respectively.
The original shower knob was one of the first things I designed myself, and so in my beginner shortsighted mind I apparently did not save it anywhere… I might have the design I made on paper with measurements somewhere, but that’s like finding a needle in a haystack Luckily, after some rummaging I was able to find my first prototype replica of the actual main connection to the metal level of the shower apparatus, which I can take measurements from and import a photograph to get back to what I love most, showering
Not completely happy with how the front looks, maybe I should have printed it flipped. Or I could add faces to it kinda like a Beyblade
How can I try to avoid losing as much data as possible? Document measurements I take? I really should probably switch from Shapr 3D to Fusion 360 so I can make parametric models, making design tweaking vastly easier, working with Play-Doh vs. Marble.
Toilet Bolt Covers
Jun 7, 2022
The existing covers were pretty nasty so I threw them out several months ago and have been rocking the bare metal setup - just another step to boujee up my place! I took some inspiration from these two I found on Thingiverse.
Just went with a random shape, that was able to conceal the bolt, nut and washer. I could sand and polish it to get it to look closer to the porcelain bowl once I acquire polish and the varying degrees of grit sandpaper (200-3000). Spent about 5 minutes getting the measurements and designing it and kicking off the print. I was tempted to duplicate the model in my slicing software (since I need two of these) and run both at once but it’s good practice to ensure the design works first before wasting material on a part that potentially doesn’t get the job done.
In fact, the resulting print did not fit. The measurements were right though for some reason the printed piece had an inner diameter of
9.74mm when I modeled it to be
11.2mm. My quick and lazy fix was to increase both the X and Y scale by
1.15x in my slicing software, which hopefully gets the right size…
I also have a regret on my model design since it has a crevice that will make it a little harder to clean - a design principal that I think about an unhealthy amount. If it wasn’t already the next day (12:02 AM) then I might redesign it but I already have to stay up until this print finishes to test the fit, then hopefully just kick off another of the same print right after so I can make it to bed before the boogeyman gets me
Bear Spray Safety Clip
May 26, 2022
For @katiekatie12341. She asked if I could print and mail her a safety clip for her bear spray since they don’t ship to Canada. C’mon UDAP, figure it out! Anyways, the model was already available on Thingiverse so printed this at 15% infill and with four shells as the creator recommended. Mailed to her friend in North Vancouver and hopefully know her bear spray never goes off unintentionally
PS: I was happy to help and more just happy to be thought of as someone people are comfortable reaching out to and asking for my help
May 24, 2022
I broke my shower tap. Now it’s just this metal thing. Luckily I had a spare wrench and have been using that, just as my landlord ended up suggesting!
It’s not very classy or as convenient though. Time to print something up! First I replicated the part that went over the metal arm to make the prototyping phase faster. Once that piece was worked out I extended some knobs off it for the final product.
Maze First Print
Dec 5, 2021
Now that the construction part is complete, I’ll run a test print! Since this is the first print, I must calibrate the print head to be only slightly above the print bed in its home position. Once that’s done, I set the extruder temperature to 205° C and guide the filament through the tube to the print head until some begins to extrude. The printer came with a micro SD card and a USB adapter for it. The files included on it were the Creality Slicer application, several STL files and some already pre-sliced files. I decided to go with the 10x10 maze since it only takes an hour to complete and uses minimal filament, since my goal was just to see if the thing worked. After slicing and exporting the file to the micro SD card, I plugged it into the Ender 5 Pro and selected it from the menu and waited the hour. Great success
Here are all the things I have printed so far in chronological order and the
.stl files of my designs.
So far I’ve been designing in Shapr 3D on iPad, which has been pretty good and beginner friendly. However, now I’m seeing the great benefits of making parametric designs so will probably switch to Fusion360 when the model calls for it and I’m on a computer.
Why 3D Print Stuff
It’s a great and simple enough way to make things. The things you can make are only limited to the size of the printing area, the filament materials, physics, your imagination, and your CAD skills, in the unlikely scenario where someone hasn’t already designed what you want and graciously uploaded to the Internet for free.
I can definitely see more households getting 3D printers in the future. I’m sure it has gotten loads easier in the past several years, but an easy mode and directory/catalog of parts to print or scanning something to duplicate with your phone would really elevate the accessibility. You can create so many things out of a common resource, being the plastic filament. It would also reduce the amount of shipping that occurs. Say you needed to buy a soap dish, a hair clip, and a tiny thingamajigger for your dishwasher that you can only get from this one store 40 minutes away and they are out of stock and it costs like $50. That sounds kinda lame. You would have to drive to 3 different stores or have them all delivered. I imagine that carbon footprint is pretty large for the comparatively small items you need. A more efficient way to get these items if you already had a 3D printer would be to download some 3D models, that hopefully already exist, and buy a multipurpose spool of plastic and run the printer overnight. The shipping cost then becomes more like a one-time fee for the spool and the prints are probably faster than someone driving it to your doorstep anyway.
This is likely an oversimplification, not including how plastic is made. I haven’t seen that episode yet.
- Smaller environmental impact due to less shipping (electricity costs?)
- Potentially faster than buying from a store or online
- More convenient
- Ease of use (calibrating perfect settings, needing a computer with specific software and an SD card to transfer the files)
- Small size items only
- Smaller volume of operations, injection moulding plastic is much more efficient at high scale
Unboxing + Building + Setup
First of all I need to unbox and build the printer. This ended up being much easier than I anticipated. As much of the printer was already pre-assembled as possible and only required me to screw in the base to the top, add the print bed, control unit with screen, and connect all the cables. The cables were pretty well labelled, but I still managed to mix up the print head thermistor with the print bed thermistor The packaging was also superb and included a 200 g spool of PLA to get started.
Not including the dumbbells!
I’ve never used one before and the only experience I have 3D modelling was a couple days in Grade 9 tech class using
AutoCAD to design a rudimentary airplane that I would later realise in wood. I’m excited for all the possibilities having a 3D printer will unlock. There are several 3D printers at the Microsoft Garage in Redmond that I could also be making use of… then again, most of my inspiration comes at inopportune times.
- Copy all the configuration files to
/Marlin/and overwrite existing files
- Install the
PlatformIO IDEextension to VS Code
Build(opening the tasks took a long time - just says
- Copy the latest file named
/.pio/STM32F103RC_creality/firmware-YYYYMMDD-HHmmss.binto the SD card’s root directory with the name
- To begin the update, insert the SD card and turn on the printer
I’m running OctoPrint on my computer with a
10ft Micro-USB cable connecting it to my printer. I throw the printer in my closet whenever I’m not using it to save space.
I also have the printer plugged into a smart outlet, this can allow me to turn off my printer once a print is done. Otherwise, the fans will continue to run - the firmware doesn’t have an option to do this natively :sad:
I will definitely have a mindset of can I build this myself now whenever I have the desire to buy something. Not only would it be more fun to do, it could also be more convenient depending on the circumstances and also self-sufficient. If you want something done right, do it yourself

You have probably heard this previously, yet the genuine question is, “Just how to utilize pet nutrition supplements?” Nourishment for your dog or pet cat has actually altered substantially over the years. We made use of to feed our family pets meat scraps; today’s canine and also feline foods are much more exceptional than we when assumed. Although the costs prices are definitely a factor to consider when you’re picking food, there are various other things to take into consideration too.
Today’s costs pet foods are extra vitamins and mineral thick. The completely dry high quality of many business brands means that the nutrients in the food have actually been processed as well as the majority of the vitamins and minerals have actually been eliminated. This is not perfect for our family pets. A family pet’s body will really soak up even more vitamins and minerals from a substandard resource if it is provided the very same nutrient grade food that we would offer to ourselves. An absence of nutrients in our day-to-day food triggers a variety of illness, several of which are lethal.
If you intend to deal with your pet or pet cat’s dietary demands, you may choose to make use of pet supplements. You must constantly talk to your veterinarian for recommendations concerning the very best dietary supplement for your canine or pet cat. It’s an excellent suggestion to utilize a supplement which contains a total mix of natural active ingredients. These types of supplements are more effective because they are much more carefully matched to a canine or pet cat’s specific dietary requirements.
If you deal with your family pet in the way that you were intended to after that you will most likely never need to use pet supplements. This was never my intention. I wanted to pass on as years of poor wellness to my animal as I perhaps could. Sadly, negative decisions are all part of the bargain. Poor health can be contagious which is why it is so vital to make sure that you do everything feasible to prevent it. When it concerns your dog or pet cat nourishment, it is up to you to locate the ideal balance of nutrients for a long, healthy life. Dog Seizure Vitamins
If you are feeding your pet dog tinned food after that you have got it right. The trouble comes when you slip up like using completely dry food. Tinned foods are packaged and cooked in plastic that does not allow moisture to get away. All of the moisture is retained in the plan and that develops kibble that is dry. This means that there is extremely little vitamins and mineral worth left in the food. This is why you need to just feed your family pet tinned food if you are prepared to care for them appropriately.
Just how to use pet nutrition to regulate urinary system tract infections in dogs as well as cats is one more common concern. The solution is to include cranberry juice to the pet or pet cat’s water every time you shower them. Cranberry juice is an excellent germs cleanser and functions as a moderate diuretic. Once they have been bathed this way and after that you include the cranberry juice to their water, the infection needs to disappear.
You can additionally utilize probiotics for dealing with infections in your pet dog. These are excellent microorganisms that are found in lots of pet foods. You just need to discover the ones that are particularly created for your pet dog or pet cat. This is a relatively low-cost method to keep your pet dog healthy and balanced as well as fend off infections.
How to make use of pet nourishment correctly is not something that everyone knows how to do. But if you have a pet then ideally, you care for them as finest you can. Simply keep in mind to check on them on a regular basis to see if they are getting every one of the vitamins as well as nutrients that they need. Dog Seizure Vitamins

Several months ago, most Americans did not envision this kind of future. In fact, it wasn’t until the effects of the coronavirus were felt close to home that its severity began to be recognized by many. Initially, I ignored the potential consequences of the virus up until the moment Wesleyan opted to move to remote online learning for the rest of the Spring semester. In the week that followed, I made plans for a semester at home that involved time spent with friends, extended family, and traveling instead. Yet, several days later, Gavin Newsom issued a stay-at-home order for San Francisco residents. I thought, “This is as far as it goes, right?” In hindsight, I consider my attitude optimistic at best and, at worst, foolish. Regardless of its nature, my naive view of the situation was indicative of its unprecedented nature: This prolonged global shutdown is something out of a dystopian sci-fi novel and hardly a situation we would expect to be experiencing in our own lives.
Now that the initial shock has waned, my attitude has sluggishly progressed from denial to disbelief to resigned acclimation and eventually to a fixation on the future; and, while the proverbial light can be seen at the end of the tunnel, it also seems like each day brings more uncertainty than the last. The anxious anticipation that accompanies forward-thinking at this time is founded in a fervent desire for a return to normalcy, or at least something resembling it. As our lives were turned upside down, so was our awareness of the things that we so often take for granted.
Seeing friends on the way to class, enjoying a night out on Main Street, or even spending a Sunday studying in the library were ways we defined our individual and collective college experiences as members of the Wesleyan community. The result is largely the same beyond college campuses. People have been thrust from the lives they know into ones that perversely revolve around the coronavirus, and the absence of our normal routines serves as a constant reminder for all that has been temporarily lost. Of course, for some the situation is much more dire than a loss of routine, and the virus has brought about new waves of hardship, change, or unwelcome uncertainty that pervade this difficult time. Those who are solely afflicted by the absence of their normal lives surely have it easier than those who now not only face an absence, but an onslaught of new and unfamiliar challenges as well.
Now, we all urge the future to hurry up its course, for the pre-pandemic days to come back along as quickly as possible. Even the admission that these days, the ones of “true” normalcy, are far off does not change the fact that we yearn for them and eagerly await their arrival. At some point, institutions, politicians, and those in power will call for such an arrival; by encouraging us to return to these pre-pandemic days they will simultaneously be encouraging us, the people, to move past a deadly black swan and allow it to be lost in the horizon of our collective memory.
Like the Great Recession, COVID-19 is not good for those in power; it delegitimizes institutions that in many respects serve as bedrocks of our society by uncovering the fragility of society itself. Beyond that, and perhaps more importantly, it makes people scared, and fear is bad business. The surest way to bring back the “good old days,” then, is to restore the circumstances that preceded their upheaval. This, of course, is a bit of an oversimplification.
The coronavirus won’t be forgotten from a scientific perspective, or a public health one. Beyond that, though, the incentive to foster a collective memory that recognizes the weight and severity of this crisis is nonexistent for those in power; going a step further, its negative effects encourage its erasure from public thought. This can be achieved in any number of ways: commercials, speeches, private corporations’ unchanged ethos or business practices, and so on.
While the public’s perception of issues is not completely controlled by those at the top, a rhetorical framing of issues by powerful institutions (occurring in the aforementioned mediums, to name a few) is certainly a powerful tool that sways people’s attitude towards current or past events. In a way, this framing allows long-term institutional responses to be addressed only partially, lacking any tangible and formative political, economic or social adjustments. Will the coronavirus really push CEOs to adopt compassionate capitalist practices? Not unless they are held to that standard. I am not saying that the onus for formative change lies squarely on the back of the individual citizen, but instead, pointing to a reflexivity between the retrospective attitudes of people in remembering crises and the large-scale changes that come about after they happen. To accede the call to “move past” this virus is to allow it to squirm out of our minds and onto the pages of history, nothing more than an event that came and went.
There is no telling what the future holds. We have yet to solidify a vaccine timeline or completely squash “the curve,” and there are no guarantees whether people (and the economy) will continue to listen to scientists in the days, weeks, and months to come. Furthermore, the long-term political, economic, and social impacts of the pandemic feel as uncertain as ever. That said, there will come a day where normalcy will begin to creep back into our lives. It may be a slow and painful process, but the sense of order and predictability that we are missing so dearly will return. When that time comes, we may either wholly move beyond the hardships or hold them close, using them to forge a future that productively builds off of our shared past.
Not all the lessons that can be learned from this crisis are obvious. To unearth some of them we will have to dig, a process that begins introspectively with recognition of and appreciation for any thoughts and feelings that appear in this moment, and ends with newfound attitudes being held close, occupying a special place in our memories moving forward. This critical remembrance can materialize in myriad ways. Maybe its presence will influence the names we check off in the voting booth, the organizations we choose to support and fight for, or even the time we spend with friends and family.
Right now, forward-thinking isn’t nearly as important as weathering the storm. Caring for the emotional and physical wellbeing of ourselves and those around us is more than enough responsibility in this moment. This troubling time doesn’t have to offer a moment of clarity, mark a turning point, or reveal some larger truth. And while it will be traumatic, it can also be constructive. Take a moment to turn your attention inward and identify the ways this crisis has affected you, or your perception of the world around you. I hesitate to use the world “reflection,” as it implies digging deeper than what is on the surface, while this instance of contemplation can be quick and cursory.
Moving forward, hold these thoughts and feelings close, even when others urge you to discard them in the name of progress. To better our individual and collective futures we should allow what is an unprecedented event to hold an unprecedented place in our hearts and minds.

I must admit it.
I am mini album obsessed at the moment. I have been creating several mini albums for CHA and I am so excited to begin teaching these classes this year! I wanted to share one of the mini albums I will be teaching at Scrapbook Paradise in February. I used the new Prima Stationer's Desk Collection. I had so much fun with this one. Take a look:
I painted all the pages gold. It was really a good idea it made all the reds and beautiful black tones pop! I also used some vintage trim on the side and sprayed it with two different mists, one had a tan color and the other was a slight grey tone. Turned out beautifully. I also used one of the new Ingvild Bolme Resin frames and painted it with some glimmer glaze. What a great effect. Looks vintage and worn, just how I love it! If you will be in the area in Reno Nevada, come check this class out! I will be there February 22nd, 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM. For more information contact Scrapbook Paradise.
Have a great Sunday!

Researchers: Pregnant women should avoid liquorice
HELINSKI — A new Finnish study supports a food recommendation that pregnant women and women planning to become pregnant should avoid consuming liquorice.
In the study, published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, young children and infants that were exposed to large amounts of liquorice in the womb did not perform cognitive reasoning tests as well as others. The difference was about seven IQ points.
Those exposed to liquorice also performed worse in tasks measuring memory capacity and according to parental estimates, had more ADHD-type problems. In girls, puberty had starter earlier and advanced further.
Science Daily reports that researchers suggest pregnant women and women planning pregnancy should be informed of the harmful effects that products containing glycyrrhizin — such as liquorice and salty liquorice — may have on the fetus.
Glycyrrhizin is one of many factors that affect the development of a fetus, but it is impossible to say whether it was only glycyrrhizin that affected the development of a certain individual.
Based on animal experiments, the effects of liquorice are well known. Glycyrrhizin intensifies the effects of stress hormone cortisol. While cortisol is essential to the development of a fetus, it is dangerous in large amounts.
It has long been known that glycyrrhizin causes higher blood pressure and shorter pregnancies in humans.
The study compared 378 youths of about 13 years whose mothers had consumed "large amounts" or "little/no" liquorice during pregnancy. A large amount was defined as over 500 mg and little/no as less than 249 mg glycyrrhizin per week — researchers say these cutoffs were not based on health effects. The equivalent of 500-miligrams of glycyrrhizin corresponds on average to 250-grams of liquorice.
According to the recommendations, occasional consumption of small amounts such as a portion of liquorice ice cream or a few liquorice sweets is not dangerous.

Danielle Wyatt and Adam Burgess headlined last night’s celebration of Stoke-on-Trent sport for their stellar efforts flying the flag on the international stage.
The duo – England cricketer and British canoeing star respectively – were crowned female and male sports personalities of the year at a gala dinner in front of more than 400 guests at the King’s Hall, Stoke.
It is a sign of Wyatt’s stellar career that this was the third time she had lifted the crown, on this occasion following superb form which led to her being named in the ICC Twenty20 world team of the year.
The 27-year-old Meakins all-rounder, from the Westlands, also smashed a century against Australia in the Ashes – and she has carried her ferocious batting on into the 2018 season.
Burgess took a break from preparations for the European Championships canoe slalom in Prague to return to the Potteries.
The 25-year-old broke into the world top 10 in 2017 and claimed his first major senior individual medal when he took bronze at the World Cup at Markleeburg in Germany.
The former Alleyne’s student – who divides his time between Stone, Trentham and London – followed that up by helping claim team silver at the World Championships, in Pau, France.
The accolades for Wyatt and Burgess capped an evening when sporting underdogs, champions and tireless workers behind the scenes were heralded.
In a poignant moment, there was also a standing ovation for Fenton boxing hero Chris Edwards, who died at the age of 41 in March. His achievements in the ring and then as a coach and mentor were recognised with the Chris Harper Memorial Award.
Former Port Vale ace Robbie Earle and the late great Stoke City manager Tony Waddington were also inducted into the city’s sporting hall of fame.
Guests included former Stoke City boss Lou Macari, Olympic gold medal-winning hockey star Imran Sherwani and Port Vale legend John Rudge.
Nick Hancock, the Stoke-supporting broadcaster was compere for the evening.
Wyatt was also named senior individual of the year, ahead of Burgess and Fiona Prew, the world amateur time trial silver medallist.
City of Stoke AC hurdler Seamus Derbyshire, from Stockton Brook, took the junior title in a hotly-contested field, with special mentions for kickboxer Oliver Clarke and up-and-coming Stoke City striker Tyrese Campbell.
All-conquering Norton Tug-of-War, the 2017 world champions, were named senior team of the year while Clayton Hall Academy’s under-16s national champions badminton team took the junior plaudits – and the man who led them there, Ken Steele, was named coach of the year.
Norton Development, which has delivered football for all ages to Smallthorne, was honoured in the Ruth Holdway sport in the community category and two-time jujitsu world champion and coach Tara Burndred received the Tom Brennan service to sport award.
Inspirational Sue Bennett, who won bronze medals at 1,500m and 5,000m at the World Transplant Games in Malaga, took home the inaugural sporting challenge award.
Macari, who present the coach of the year award, said: "As usual, it was a superb night. I thought the right person won in each category.
"It is all about the people who don't get the headlines, but are working quietly, giving up their own time and doing so free of charge. They never usually get a mention, so on a night like this it is appropriate they do get honoured and rewarded. They fully deserve it."
Rudge, who handed over the senior team award, was delighted to see one of his former players inducted into the City of Stoke-on-Trent Sporting Hall of Fame.
He said: "Robbie was a fantastic player for Port Vale and is a fantastic lad. Now he is doing exceptionally well in America, doing a lot of television work.
"He was a player we would love to have in our team now. Not only was he a box-to-box player, he was a goalscorer, a tackler, and also his character and determination was fantastic."

I’m not sure if Anne Anderson’s two sons have noticed but Mum’s Gone AWOL.
The former Morecambe High School pupil’s satirical novel has struck a chord with her story of a mum who cannot take any more of other people’s problems.
The novel takes the reader on a personal journey
Anne, who writes under the pseudonym Roxii Berry, gives ‘Mum’ the gift of some me time so she can try to de-clutter h er mind.
Since it was released on Amazon at Christmas, the novel has received five star reviews and attracted lots of attention for its brash imagery and written voice.
Mum’s Gone AWOL explores Samantha’s uncertainty in accepting herself as a mother because of her abused past.
Alone, on the beautiful sun kissed island of Gran Canarias, she unpicks her personal history and creates a new identity.
Anne said: “The novel takes the reader on a personal journey from that awful feeling of unworthiness that we all feel from time to time, to a place of belonging and self-worth.”
Anne went to Morecambe High School in the 1970s later studying counselling at Bournemouth and Poole College.
She then went onto the Access to Higher Education Diploma graduating from the University of Winchester with a BA Hons in Creative Writing in 2014.
Now living in Poole with her two sons, Anne is keeping her fingers crossed her second novel – to be published later this month – follows the success of her first.
Flirty Fifty is a comedy based in Bournemouth and takes the reader on a tour of middle-aged dating stories and Bournemouth’s local hotspots.
It will be available from March 27 in kindle, paperback and audiobook on amazon.co.uk.
Anne writes a weekly blog https://roxiiberry.wordpress.com/ and would love to get in touch with old and new friends.


If anyone was happy with the city Districting Commission’s proposed new Bronx council lines at its local hearing last week, we sure didn’t see them there.
From neighborhoods sharing three councilmembers to the borough shortchanged on a ninth council seat, commission members certainly got an earful at the Jan. 9 Hostos College hearing.
Riverdale Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz and term-limited council Majority Leader Joel Rivera both argued the borough should have – nay, is entitled to – a ninth council seat.
As the poorest, most heavily minority borough, said Dinowitz, “it frankly opens the process up to litigation.”
The commission is working under the mandate of the federal Voting Rights Act with 2010 Census numbers to come up with fairly equal and racially balanced council districts of 160,000 or so residents.
Rivera said that with an estimated 100,000 undocumented residents, a ninth seat is “doable, feasible and possible.”
Current proposed commission lines will mean splitting east Harlem in half, pushing the 8th Council District into a major chunk of Mott Haven and lower Highbridge – which still only gives the Bronx an edge of a few hundred residents in the new district, apparently not enough to count as that ninth seat.
Notes from last weekend’s swearing-in ceremonies for new Parkchester/Soundview Assemblyman Luis Sepulveda and Morris Park/Allerton Assemblyman Mark Gjonaj:
Luis got some chuckles from the politically savvy in the audience at St. Raymond High School for Boys over rumors that he has his eye (with the backing of State Sen. Ruben Diaz Sr.) on Assemblyman Carl Heastie’s job as Bronx Democratic Party leader. “I hope you remain County Leader for a very long time,” Luis told him from the podium.
Yes, that was U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer in biking togs, with helmet parked on the podium, after pedaling up from Park Slope to say nice things about Luis. He showed up suitably suited on Sunday for Mark. Ever the sharp pol, Chuck drew loud cheers when he told the audience he’d look for Mark’s input on the new immigration bill to make it easier for Albanians to come to the U.S.
State Senator Jeff Klein, along with a few other electeds at Mark’s ceremony had to make a fast turnaround to head BACK to Albany where the session was heating up, including that vote on toughening state gun laws.
Talking to the crowded auditorium at Christopher Columbus High School about Mark’s success as a businessman, Jeff told the audience Mark was such an honest broker Jeff even bought his Yates Avenue house from him.
• Mark’s ceremony took about 3 1/2 hours – with no bathroom break – but it wasn’t a record breaker. City Comptroller John Liu, heading out for another stop, told us he remembers one from Queens a couple of years ago that went well over that.
State Labor Commissioner and former Parkchester/Soundview Assemblyman Peter Rivera, at Hostos College Jan. 10 giving a local Powerpoint presentation on Gov. Cuomo’s State of the State address, including Cuomo’s call for decriminalizing possessing small amounts of marijuana.
Peter said that back when he was an assistant Bronx D.A. running the complaint room, he automatically tossed pot cases.
More negative news for former Bronx Boro Prez Adolfo Carrion. The latest Quinnipiac Poll giving MTA Chair Joe Lhota 23% of the vote in the Republican primary for mayor, gives AC 3%. Good news: He beats Doe Fund founder George McDonald, who pulled 2%.
Looks like Senate Republicans are adopting the catch phrase of 2010 gubernatorial candidate Jimmy “The Rent Is Too Damn High” McMillan.
They smacked Soundview Senator Ruben Diaz Sr. and Manhattan’s Liz Krueger for topping the standard $50G rent limit for their district offices.
In Diaz’ case, Daily News Albany Bureau Chief Keith Lovett reported The Rev’s new lease on his district office at 900 Rogers Place will go for $67,937, but then again, that’s for 3,155 square feet, “downright palatial” compared to the senate average of 1,734 square feet.”
Great interview by the Times’ inimitable Clyde Haberman with acting MTA Chairman and ex-Bronx Boro Prez Freddy Ferrer, who is now sporting a “Roberto Ramirez” fuzzy beard look. This after ditching that long time trademark soup-strainer on his upper lip.
KING OF THE HILL
New northeast Bronx City Councilman Andy King held a grand opening Tuesday for his new 12th Council District office at 940 E. Gun Hill Road. Convicted predecessor Larry Seabrook’s new digs, with a five-year lease, will be determined March 8 by the federal Bureau of Prisons.
Soundview Assemblyman Marcos Crespo an Albany no-show at the Jan. 9 vote reelecting Assembly Speaker Shelly Silver. He was home with wife Virna Lisy on standby for a special delivery. Raquel Ester Crespo arrived Saturday, Jan. 12, weighing a healthy 6.15 lbs.
Jan. 7 – Alleged cardshark Stanley Schlein.

Change Maker – The Hamilton company using 3D concrete printing technology to help ease NZ’s housing crisis
As property prices across the country continue to skyrocket, Wafaey Swelim believes 3D concrete printing technology may offer an answer to New Zealand’s housing crisis.
Through his Hamilton-based company QOROX, Egyptian-born Swelim is determined to use the latest cementitious 3D construction printing technology – aka 3D concrete printing – to not only speed up the construction time of houses and other structures, but to build in a more environmentally friendly way that uses less waste, and to eventually make housing more affordable.
Swelim is this month’s Change Maker. Dell and The Project have been recognising people who have made a positive social impact in the community through the Change Maker campaign.
Swelim, who is trained in architectural engineering and has spent more than two decades in the construction industry, working on multi-million-dollar projects around the world such as the Abu Dhabi Formula One track and the Ritz Carlton hotel in Dubai, settled in New Zealand in 2015.
Having a passion for innovation, he says he was inspired to create QOROX because he wanted to help change the “broken” construction industry, which is often hampered by issues relating to materials and labour, as well as by ongoing supply chain disruptions.
The company uses a robot that can ‘print’ concrete structures such as park benches, walls, houses and commercial buildings – all up to New Zealand’s high seismic and building standards.
The technology is imported from CyBe Construction in the Netherlands and uses concrete that is specially mixed in New Zealand and designed to meet our local conditions and standards.
The robot only requires two people to run it, and Swelim says it has the capacity to build up to 75 percent faster than traditional methods and with 70 percent less waste, which he attributes to the fact the robot can build with a precision no human can match.
“By using less material you have less waste; you’re generating less carbon footprint and ultimately you’ll become cheaper,” he says.
Last year, the company made headlines when it staged a demonstration of the robot in action, constructing a waka-inspired park bench in Hamilton’s Garden Place in less than an hour.
Swelim says the printing technique has not only been used by Hamilton City Council and Auckland Council to make things such as street furniture, it is also increasingly being embraced by builders and architects, with the company having a number of unique projects in the pipeline, such as a skate park in Hawke’s Bay. It also has a number of residential projects in the consenting stage.
He says the potential of the technology is massive, pointing to examples overseas where it has been used in the construction of everything from footbridges to army barracks.
“The technology can be used to do a planter or a bridge or an army barracks and anything in between, from a structural wall to a house to a water feature – using the same robot, the same two guys,” he says.
“The only thing stopping us is our imagination.”
Swelim believes automation technology such as 3D concrete printing will revolutionise the construction industry, likening it to “life before smartphones and life after smartphones”.
He also believes the time is ripe for an uptake in such technology, with the COVID-19 pandemic revealing how weaknesses in international supply chains can affect the construction industry here.
“During a boom, nobody has time for innovation, and during bust times nobody has money for innovation, but I think COVID is forcing our hand to change the way we’re thinking about things,” he says.
“The construction industry is a broken industry and I want to find a solution for it.”
He says construction costs using the printer are currently roughly the same as for traditional methods, but he is hoping the company can bring these costs down in the future by creating an economy of scale.
And though Swelim doesn’t see technology such as 3D concrete printing immediately leading to more concrete-built homes in New Zealand, he does think it could be used to complement more traditional materials, such as timber.
“I see it as working with timber to help make houses more durable, reduce maintenance, and also make them even more heat efficient – because concrete houses use less power for heating and cooling,” he says.
“The biggest advantage that we have with this is that it makes the houses a lot more resilient than traditional builds [due to concrete’s] longevity and how strong it is. So I see it as an extra tool in our toolbox to help us build more with the little resources that we have, and also, to try to break this vicious cycle of constantly rising prices and a lack of labour that impacts everyone in the country.”
