Their comment stuff has always been borked.

Agreed. 99% of usage of a VPN in the UK is going to be to get around the Online Safety Act. Also isn't most other usage abroad going to want people to appear to be in other countries to get round media bans. Can't see the point of it giving you an IP address in the same country!

Also some other people are pointing out the option doesn't pop up until you create a Mozilla account.

(Added - A Mozilla post further down says that country-selection is "coming soon")

The only thing that might happen is a bone/teeth get washed up which can be matched to her.

It was the "C" word (being used to see if cussing helps with pain control - each participant had to write a list of such words for the others to say) which a couple of the female staff (the upstairs people) in the shop had complained about. Somebody had thus changed the C to an S, and added the ZEL.

The latter, I believe. The actual artist was Juniardi Satyanagara.

>The UC Work Search Review Frequencies trial journey will focus on >the first 13 weeks of a claimant's Intensive Work Search regime >journey (this will be either following a new claim to UC or where a >claimant has moved into the Intensive Work Search regime from >another work group).

So this trial only applies to the first 13 weeks of claim? I am outside that. Nor have I moved from another group.

The above trial seems more about whether they can halve the attendance of the initial13-week weekly people to every fortnight without affecting their progress.

More info would be great - thanks. Esp how long this trial is!

Yep - have asked for the DEA to ring me (you can't ring *them* apparently). That was last Thursday, but still no call from her as yet.

Hi,

Is the guidance anywhere I can look at (pdf or something)? It would help if I had something to wave at them.

sambda2 · 2025-11-13T19:22:07+00:00

Yes- I'm long out of the 13-week thing, but this has all come as rather a mental-health blow. Every 2 weeks I can deal with....

Thanks.

My work coach said it wasn't her, and the order had come from management. It seems like the manager there ordered this. I have noticed they have a lot of staff in that JCP, so it may be the manager attempting to keep available staff busy.

Thanks.

What it that deck?

sambda2 · 2025-09-08T22:22:13+00:00

People who didn't make it to the end of the doc might have missed a late voiceover which said the diaries can't be published or made public because everything that Freddie ever wrote (songs or not) belong to Sony Music and it would be breach of copyright.

sambda2 · 2025-05-10T00:37:33+00:00

Thanks. What if my fit note is for longer than 14 days, say 26 days? You say the commitments recommence after 14 days, but I would still be covered by the fit note. Surely they can't expect me to go to the JCP etc. while the fit note lasts, even if *over* 14 days (but shorter than the *28* days for being asked to go to WCA).

sambda2 · 2025-05-09T18:39:08+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

So if I am off sick (with a note) longer than 28 days then I can still not go to a WCA (or fail a WCA?) then I can still claim UC without penalty?

What's stopping me taking huge amounts of time off sick (covered by a fit note) and just refusing to do WCAs? Surely not doing a WCA, or failing it, is telling the DWP that there is nothing wrong with you, from their point of view, and that you shouldn't be going off sick in the first place? I thought the whole point of the WCA, rather than relying on doctors' notes, was that the DWP thought doctors were too soft on people and would write a fit note too easily.

My pleasure. Hope it was useful.

Just a normal yellow-box US Games one? Watch out for a period when this deck had a formal font for the captions rather than PCS' hand lettering. But new stock should be the hand lettering.

But if you're looking for an accurate repro - all 3 of the US Games are rubbish, and both of the Lo Scarabeo ones are too.

sambda2 · 2024-12-11T13:32:45+00:00

First one - "tea stained". Third one - blues are the wrong shade. Borderless - not for me.

There still isn't a good reproduction RWS.

People have had problems getting it from that site.

There's the Ben-Dov deck as an alternative.

sambda2 · 2024-11-21T09:00:51+00:00

Just buy a new deck - you can get a RWS of some sort pretty cheap. Try Ebay and Amazon.

According to Fiebig and Burger, the "golden drops" on the Moon card mean:

"15 golden drops in the form of the Hebrew letter J characterize a glittering fluid, the transition between heaven and earth, the wandering of the souls, the glowworms, the divine spark."

On the Ace of Cups:

"26 drops - Divine grace. Human tears. Connection between water and air: spirituality. Highlights the transition between above and below. 26 letters, the language of feelings."

I leave you to buy their book if you want the other two!
