    Ulli,

    Held my highSelf in a prayer armlock to discuss having a discussion with your highSelf to discuss an immediate and instant healing. We're all in agreement, just need yours now. (I said to my highSelf to tell your highSelf to break any previously made frickin contract if that was what was needed.) (Because we need you.)

    All is well.

    Love, Sierra whose intent will brook no argument

    Thanks, Paul. He is going to consult with one of the top people from our electric company here, as he doesn't even trust our regular electrician in this matter. I was just sharing here and now stuff....
    Well, you know how it goes. Waving nerdie numbers in front of a geek is like wiggling a string in front of a cat ... guaranteed reactions .
    Yeah, I know, that is a problem.

    http://www.kropla.com/electric2.htm

    Costa Rica:

    Line and neutral at 120VAC , same as USA and Canada. probably 220 two phase and 220 three phase, in the same way. Gonna check on that. Can't find that info, but it is likely the same.

    Thus, the wiring will come in at, oh, 220 two phase and then be broken down for each place. Higher voltage is the better anyway, as this gets more into 'field' conditions than current drive and this drops costs for the wiring. 100M is a LONG run, about 340ft for the underground part alone. Expect to hit a good 400ft, overall. #2 gauge is likely the deal, at minimum, considering the total loading. 400 ft through a 1" pipe would be a real bear to pull. You might have to go to a underground rated ('bury rated') cable and leave it at that. Then go to buried conduit from the breakout for the cottages.

    Is it a case of doing a single line then breaking out to each cottage? That is the cheaper way to go, the proper, one might say. However that's 10-11 junctions. Not unusual, they do it all the time in suburbs. Ernie should know...

    I was going to buy my dad a roll of bury rated copper wire for his garage, which was a 880ft run, and at the time the wire needed to be 00 or 000, I can't recall. He needed 220VAC, three phase, at a minimum of 100amps. It was almost cheaper to have a new transformer put in near the garage, instead of coming off the house line, and running the 880ft. Your distance is under half but your load is at least as high.
    Great input, everyone. We have quite a few options. It's still early days. The upper terrace where we are planning on building four cottages could be reached from the main road which runs along just above a steep slope which is overgrown with bamboo. These cottages could be served by an overhead cable which wouldn't be too visible.
    Here is a picture of the upper terrace. The bamboo slope I mentioned is on the right, and the cottages would be built to the left of the lane. The lower area is to be developed later, although our own house will go there, too, and we may start building it early next year. If we were to run an overhead cable to our house the cottages would have their scenic view ruined.
    Thats what this is about, mainly.

    Attachment 18342
    I'm chiming in late but what Carmody is saying makes sense (from what I know - I'm not an expert - one area of science I am actually a bit weak in) and you have to consider total possible load - fires just are not an option - neither is wrecked appliances. The price will be a factor. I recall at my last job we had to run about 300ft of 600 amp cabling for a seamwelder, (although that is likely +2x what you need), and the cost was almost unbelievable - just for the cable.

    I can't recall exactly what it was per foot but it was atrocious (but not unreasonable for powering a $650,000 piece of machine). Make sure you check out your options here.

    Best wishes Ulli. I've had a few cysts as well. One was removed surgically (ouch) and the last one the surgeon used a needle to aspirate the fluid (didn't hurt at all). It tried to come back once but then just disappeared.
    So far so good
    @ WhiteCrowBlackDeer I love trees too, Brook was a stunning tree.
    I had the needle treatment done, too, on several other cysts. It was successful.
    Anchor, you are right, my energy body is affected, as my mum died of breast cancer...her first amputation was in 1981..twenty two years later they took off her other breast. She died in 2006, age 82.
    I'm determined to not let that type of thinking pattern affect me, but repressing thoughts doesn't work too well either.

    The thing is with this particular cyst- it was no longer liquid enough to suck out with a syringe. It has been there for a few years now, but suddenly started growing in the last few months. It feels smooth now...definitely cyst-like.
    Will do the castor oil thingy, quit the sugar, although I'm pretty strict about sugar intake on the whole, and visualize the laser beams.
    Husband is a doctor, but wants to drag me to surgery for every little thingy. So we don't discuss it any more.
    "Is Ulli okay?"
    "Yes, yes!"
    "We already told you, 'yes!'"
    "Just post it!"

    (I'm late getting to this thread and got pulled away. But I did get a similar messages as soon as I read you initial post. I wanted to put some distant from my personal connection with you.)

    "Yes, yes, yes..." again I'm getting.

    With Love,
    Paula

    Quote The Return of the Divine Feminine
    What amazes me about the human condition, is the obsession with the physical form and how people just don't feel good enough or they just think they are not perfect, or they need to fit a certain ideal or body type and that is all a deception.

    We are all unique and different, just like there are many different kinds of trees. Can you imagine if an Oak tree wishes it could look like an Aspen? The perfect body, is one that is loved and appreciated. Our ability to accept ourselves as we are and detach from any other programing, is the greatest gift we can give ourselves.

    We are vessels for Spirit to express itself through - we are beings of Love and Love is the ultimate state of good health and healthy identification with the self, anything less creates dis-ease and the very behaviors that lower self-esteem and increases self-judgement and it feeds addiction and the feeling of being unfulfilled and not happy.

    Just love yourself - as you are... From there, all the inspiration comes, which allows a person to embrace a path of getting more into balance and more in gratitude, it helps us to let go of whatever we are hanging onto and helps us to see that beauty is diverse and it radiates out from within, turning all form into a Divine Temple.

    It is the soul within the body that needs to see this, and that makes for a radiant body, heart and mind - no matter what it looks like and no matter what society may say and all those who have bought into that superficial mind-set... The Flower of Life is the energy we hold in Unity Consciousness - time to embrace the beautiful Mandala of our existence without separation, judgement, or fear...


    I seem to have sprung another leak...

    Much Love and Acceptance of My Self and all My Other Selves,
    Life is a road we don't travel alone. But everyone's on their own journey home.

    I had to look up who mother was:

    Apple cider vinegar, otherwise known as cider vinegar or ACV, is a type of vinegar made from cider or apple must and has a pale to medium amber color. Unpasteurized or organic ACV contains mother of vinegar, which has a cobweb-like appearance and can make the vinegar look slightly congealed.

    ACV is used in salad dressings, marinades, vinaigrettes, food preservatives, and chutneys, among other things. It is made by crushing apples and squeezing out the liquid. Bacteria and Yeast are added to the liquid to start the alcoholic fermentation process, and the sugars are turned into alcohol. In a second fermentation process, the alcohol is converted into vinegar by acetic acid-forming bacteria (acetobacter). Acetic acid and malic acid give vinegar its sour taste.[1]

    Catching up on the thread, a blessedly busy day at work. Though the Village will remain weekly in the North MS Reiki basket (as well as PL's South MS Reiki Basket {we got this locality covered!}), you are in the basket most especially, Ulli! Thank you for you request to be of service and Mercy to you, Ulli. As well as all others unnamed currently in the basket.

    Came across this today, regarding the upcoming election, et al. Do have a listen. It is an InfoWars production, apparently, but entertaining nonetheless.

    bear in mind, my current living room, that I'm sitting in, right now, is 28ft x 16ft, with full 8 ft ceilings.

    Micro Spaces

    (life, like this, is temporary. Once, I was on the equivalent of food stamps/welfare, for 7 years...as I could not be bothered to try and make money. Not interested.) (the house I'm in right now, is a workspace. For example, the kitchen has three workbenches) (bedrooms are storage)

    Gawd, I can't imagine if my pup had ever discovered one of these. She'd of used it as a launch platform for delivering ninja kicks to your spleen/sternum. With much glee and gusto.

    I had to look up who mother was:

    Apple cider vinegar, otherwise known as cider vinegar or ACV, is a type of vinegar made from cider or apple must and has a pale to medium amber color. Unpasteurized or organic ACV contains mother of vinegar, which has a cobweb-like appearance and can make the vinegar look slightly congealed.

    ACV is used in salad dressings, marinades, vinaigrettes, food preservatives, and chutneys, among other things. It is made by crushing apples and squeezing out the liquid. Bacteria and Yeast are added to the liquid to start the alcoholic fermentation process, and the sugars are turned into alcohol. In a second fermentation process, the alcohol is converted into vinegar by acetic acid-forming bacteria (acetobacter). Acetic acid and malic acid give vinegar its sour taste.[1]
    exactly!

    and this is what it will do for you:

    Quote What Can Raw Apple Cider Vinegar Do for Me?

    Beneficial ingredients in raw apple cider vinegar give it its power to make us feel better, look better and feel energized. Just look at some of the beneficial ingredients in raw apple cider vinegar:

    *Pectin – helps to regulate blood pressure and reduce bad cholesterol.
    *Malic Acid – gives ACV the properties of being anti-viral, anti-bacterial & anti-fungal.
    *Calcium – helps create strong bones and teeth.
    *Ash – gives ACV its alkaline property which aids your body in maintaining proper pH levels for a healthy alkaline state.
    *Acetic Acid – It appears that this acid slows the digestion of starch which can help to lower the rise in glucose that commonly occurs after meals.
    and these are some known benefits from using it:

    Quote A Few Benefits of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar

    *1 tablespoon of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar mixed in 4 ounces of purified water after a meal has been used as a natural remedy for heartburn and as a replacement for toxic heartburn medications.
    *Raw Apple Cider Vinegar may help improve bowel irregularity, thereby removing toxins from the body at a faster rate.
    *Helps clear up skin conditions and blemishes giving a smoother texture and complexion.
    *Raw Apple Cider vinegar may also help with joint pain and stiffness.
    *Apple Cider Vinegar helps to break down fats so that your body can use them rather than store them. For this reason, many diets include ACV in their regimen.
    *On a small scale, ACV was studied by researchers at Arizona State University. The preliminary study was published in the Diabetes Care journal. It reported that ACV helps reduce levels of glucose.

    Raw organic apple cider vinegar is even good for pets. It has been used to help control fleas and even promotes a healthy shiny coat.
    My girlfriend has had problems with her body becoming acid and then she started taking the apple vinegar.
    Just a few days after she felt all symptoms of an acid body fall away. You can just feel it when you drink it.
    The body agrees with it.

    Some things just appear and then just disappear (eg warts). Maybe this cyst is just changing platforms as it commutes between two other time dimensions?

    Let's help it on its way. Platform 5 is over there; you'd better hurry or you'll miss your connection!

    This would put a whole new angle on Job 1:21:
    “The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.”
    It's working.
    Would you mind having a go at these wrinkles as well?
    Platform 10, leaving in 20 minutes.

    As the saying goes, The impossible we do right away, miracles take a little longer

    Add-on:
    Language is full of physical metaphor, which probably wasn't metaphor to begin with and probably still isn't. There are things we can't stomach, i.e. sh/t, we cold shoulder people etc. We don't have a word for what the brain does, it sees, it grasps, it under-stands, it com-prehends - you catch my drift?
    We also talk about getting something off one's chest, right?

    Mother is the kind of starter for making your own vinegar. We once tried making vinegar that way with leftovers of wine. I seem to recall stocks ran out
    Talking of which, I was once at a wedding feast where the priest said grace: Lord, you turned water into wine, but the best we can do is turn wine into water...

    Getting ready for araucaria who will appreciate this one when he comes back.
    Found it on reddit.

    Loose grammar? English doesn't do grammar, or at least can do without to a very large extent. This is why esperanto went out of business.

    DId you know, Shakespeare's plays would have been half as long if he hadn't got into the habit of introducing new words from abroad accompanied by their 'translation'. Can't think of an example at this time of day, but 'slings and arrows' gives an idea of what I mean.

    Hence Shakespeare was the ultimate pleonastic perissologist single-handedly responsible for putting English on steroids.

    Another time, I'll tell you how artists play this game, but for now, it's back to work
