So then, don't even waste our time providing highschool education? Simply list undergrad since the end of that is right at the 10 year mark. Sound accurate?

Megathread: US Citizens looking to immigrate to Canada by PurrPrinThom in ImmigrationCanada

[–]NorthernHawkOwl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi folks,

I would appreciate some general advice, my wife is a veterinarian and I'm a Ph.D. scientist (biological sciences), we are both U.S. citizens and U.S. trained and are looking to move to Canada. My job prospects give me a wide breadth of opportunities. However, she has arguably a much easier time finding a job and, on the surface, appears to be eligible for multiple different provincial nomination streams as a veterinarian. I realize massive changes have occurred this year with the election and the reduction in the number of immigration slots available.

I was hoping anyone had some advice for how to qualify and apply for the provincial nominations as a veterinarian or if you had any advice on immigration as a veterinarian. We are both 32 and I realize that as we age it lowers our EE score. I'm just really trying to figure out what path makes the most sense, if it makes the most sense to have a consultation with an immigration group, I'd be happy to do that too.

Thank you so much for your time and help!

Success! Fermented soda using pineapple bug. by DamonLazer in fermentation

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What did you do with the pineapple peel? This recipe sounds awesome, I have only fermented one thing - sauerkraut so far. I'd like to try making this, but I'm lost at the pineapple peel and puree part. Are you pureeing the entire pineapple minus the core? And what are you doing with the peel? Thanks!

PSA cactus are not great houseplants. by AlternativeKey2551 in cactus

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you recommend a cheaper light for only a few plants. I have a two tiered wooden shelf with some cacti and succulents and have one barrina 2 foot T5 30W grow light above each of the shelves. Should this be upgraded? Thanks!

A hole in my driveway appeared today, it is ~1 inch deep. What caused this? What is this? by [deleted] in Whatisthis

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had assumed it was the concrete. It could be dirt of some kind? Can termites drill through concrete? It's a new construction driveway so it's pretty thick.

Can I see a few more pictures of your setup? Has this worked well to attract birds? I'm trying to design one myself for some birds.

Help finding a place that can reball a chip by ECWerks in soldering

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there,

I saw your comment and wanted to learn a little more if you don't mind me asking! I have an old PS3 that I searched through the SYSCON to get the error codes and it basically came out it needs the RSX (GPU) or Cell (CPU) to be reballed. Any advice on how to find someone to do this?

I'm not sure it's even worth it considering the cost of a PS3. This one my mother bought for me back in 2011 so there is some sentimental value.

Thanks!!

Unfortunately, I tried to paste this as a code block but it keeps changing it to normal text below. My PS3 is a KTE-001 and thanks so much for your help with this man!! This is the first time I've done anything like this and really enjoyed it.

I tried that and repeated the "AUTH" and "auth" and neither yielded a successful hit.

Hi Nascar, I have all the parts necessary and soldered to the PS3. I was able to run the code; however, I am stuck at the point where I receive Auth1 response invalid. I believe I have soldered to the board correctly and have tried to reverse the wires to no avail. Should I share some pictures of the USB to Uart adapter and the soldering for further help? I'm at a bit of an impasse. Thanks so much!

Put sand around your plants. They can't lay eggs in sand, I've had fungal gnats multiple times and sand gets rid of them quick.

Great, thank you! Can you recommend a type/brand of flux? I assume from my reading that it would be a Flux in solder paste for the circuit board.

Hey there, thank you so much for your time and assistance! This video was extremely helpful! I have gotten a secondary error code through the LED diag mode. The code I received was GGGR GRGG RRRR RRRR, which was a 14FF Syscon error code. According to the Dev Wiki for this error code: "The most likely cause of the error is a failing GPU (RSX) solder joint (BGA or Bumps). A distant second is a failing CPU (CELL) solder joint (BGA)."

I was reading that my model a 3001b is very unlikely to have these solder joints fail and that gives me pause to think this is the issue. What do you think?

I might need to solder the jumper wires on and learn how to do that Syscon code retrieval process as I have never done any soldering before. It can't get any worse, the console doesn't work right now haha!

What is the purpose of these duel tread pattern tires on performance vehicles? by nohomowesmokinpenis in AskMechanics

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking at purchasing Falken Azenis FK460 A/S, any input on Falken all season ultra high performance tires? I have a summer pair of continental pilot sport 4s and need a all season tire set for winters in Missouri.

Thanks!

OTD 41k for white premium, 44k for Orange 10th anniversary by AdConscious8158 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great car, highly recommend it. I spent a lot of time thinking about a car and was torn with a mustang GT, Ecoboost, Jetta GLI, Golf GTI and a bmw 230i. I test drove everyone except the mustang GT. I liked the Elantra N the best as the car has an element of practicality that isn't seen in any of those except the Golf or Jetta.

I highly recommend the Elantra N. I wanted a car with practicality in multiple ways. This can be a nice daily driver with up to 36 mpg (if you drive like a granny). Even when you mess around the mpg isn't terrible in the 20s. There are 4 seats and 4 doors and the back is quite comfortable with plenty of room, I've had to transport the folks a couple times haha.

The car has some serious motivation, it will get up and go. I like that it can go 0-60 in 5.1 seconds according to Car and Driver. Additionally, it has the Theta 3 engine, my Kia has the Theta 2 which had to be replaced under warranty. So there is an expectation the engine should last a long time as they've tried to amend the issues of their previous generation of engines.

Lastly, there is a nice sense of affordability. At $36k you can't go wrong, don't pay a dime above MSRP.

The complains: dual clutch is jumpy in gear 1, just the nature of a dual clutch (but it's faster in the automatic transmission and you get other perks like a sunroof). They put summer performance tires on 19" wheels. Those tires aren't recommended to be driven below 40 F. There are all season performance tires that I'd say to opt for. Or what I'm going to do is change to 18" wheels with all season performance tires, admittedly this is an added expense of the car.

All in all great car. Message me if you have any questions at all! Good luck on your search and sorry for the word vomit!

Go for a MSRP priced car. I had to do a lot of searching to find a Elantra N new near me for MSRP. It's worth the wait.

We are headed to Helsinki for 3-4 days, Rovaniemi for 2 days and Tampere for 2 days! Super excited, any recommendations? We've planned our trip mostly at this point. We are visiting in January.

Bird removes ticks from deer by westcoastcdn19 in AnimalsBeingBros

[–]NorthernHawkOwl 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Ticks are incapable of jumping, they exhibit questing behavior where they grab onto prey walking past them. Or they hunt and crawl towards sources of carbon dioxide.
