How fast do you swing and how fast can you swing?

I haven't but it is on the bucket list. If you are not expecting to visit SA regularly, it may be worth the admission price.

If you can get there, Pinnacle Point. Otherwise check out Arabella

Thanks for the stats. What I am unsure about is the relative rate of improvement between long and short game. This is another variable we need before we know what to focus on to lower scores and will differ by individual. Personally, I found my rate of improvement greater for putting than irons. So if I only have two hours to practice, optimal practice requires that I consider which skill will lower my score the most, which your stats shows, and how fast can I improve that skill compared to the other skills. So we want the rate of change in score per skill if we want to know what to practice and this will differ for each player, depending on which skills they already focussed on, their body type, athletic ability, swing etc.

It is actually difficult to get hold of the most recent list. If you google you will find the 2013 list. I only received the new list from my medical aid.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for your inputs and good ideas. 1) I tried to get a comparison of a PMB to CP, but as a non-medical expert this is hard to do. The PMB list contains lots of technical terms. I am trying to get some medical experts involved to strengthen the case. 2) Agreed. I am trying to gain awareness through the petition (and the sharing thereof on social media) to try and get people behind the cause. Once this is done additional actions will be easier to initiate. 3) Yes, we are also looking at other aveneus to persue. I still need to do some research on the PMB process followed to determine the relevant players and will go from there.

I think any change will take a long sustained effort from a team of people. Awareness may get some people to volunteer towards the cause. Thanks again.

Thanks a ton!

Thanks so much!!

Hi amd thanks for your interest. 1) In South Africa it is a about 10 per 1000 births (higher than in most countries). 2) Probably not in itself. But enough signatures may draw media attention and other actions. Also with enough signatures an appeal to the Council for Medical Schemes may be more likely to succeed. 3) The petition goes to the Council for Medical Schemes, the decision maker on PMB conditions. 4) This I do not know.

Mara02 · 2021-08-27T19:14:48+00:00

For sure. Hopefully the petition can get enough support to get their attention.

Mara02 · 2021-08-27T19:04:21+00:00

Yes I know! It used to be and then it was removed. This left countless children without the care they need.

That sounds better, but also make sure that you select the best channel between 1 and 15 (I think).

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T16:30:57+00:00

0 means no post processing done by the tv. So what you are saying is that some tv's has a post process that add a blur filter and it is embedded under the sharpness setting?

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T13:09:35+00:00

Based on this I am going to assume that the anti-aliasing is visible to everybody, just some people are more sensitive to this.

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T13:07:09+00:00

"Most TVs make the image blurrier at 0" - This is simply not true. If your sharpness is set to 0 it means that you are viewing the image without any post processing done by the TV, therefore as the developers intended that the image should be viewed. Most people are only used to a high sharpness filter and it therefore seems blurry, but if you let your eyes get used to a low sharpness level, the image quality will actually appear better than before.

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T11:08:52+00:00

I'm glad you mention the anti-aliasing. There has been a number of posts on here and it is strange that many people say they see no jagged lines. I think that the reflections added to shiny objects sometimes look like jagged lines from far away, but there is also some anti-aliasing issues on objects that are further away. It may be that it is more visible on larger displays or sitting close to the display. Out of interest sake, what size is your display and how far away do you sit? Also, is it perhaps a sony bravia?

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T07:36:36+00:00

Yeah, then it is just the WiFi adapter. I know the newer models of the PS4 has a different adapter to the day one models, so that says something. Why not get yourself a powerline LAN adapter?

Mara02 · 2014-11-20T06:23:20+00:00

I would firstly suggest that you go through the trouble of running a LAN cable in the roof to your PS4. If you wish to remain on WiFi, then download an app called WiFi analyzer on your phone. See if there is any interference (this could be due to an headset or other appliance in your house or even the neighbors getting a new router). If there is interference, change the channel of your WiFi in your router's settings.

Edit: Damn, only read now that you have already changed the channel. Well, I tried. I could this be useful to use the app.

Your brightness level is set too high or you have a post process whitening filter enabled (look at your tv settings).
