Eggs will go into the incubator in a couple of days, they need to sit and settle after being transported, it is a lottery as what sex they may be, but we have a plan in place for excess roosters.
 
Both breeds are duel purpose large birds so the roos are suitable for the table. With chickens some breeds are only good at laying lots of eggs but have very little or tough meat other meat chicken breeds are great for eating but do not lay many eggs. We are happy to have slightly fewer eggs and be able to make use of the rooster meat.

The bits left over from processing will contribute to the health and well being of new fruit trees, with the remains being placed in the ground just before planting a new tree to provide fertilizer while it breaks down.

Little miss has 2 hand raised POL chickens of indeterminate breed that need to be moved to the big chook run and free up the smaller pen for the new batch of chicks when they hatch.
 
Feeling drained, I have spent the day working on PowerPoint slides and making sure to reference them correctly in the Vancouver style. IPCP in not the most entertaining subject :ack2: but with a little more work tonight I should have a basic presentation completed and fully referenced, just in case the next group meeting is a fail, but of somebody else has some better slides that can be slotted in it would be great but I have no intention of failing the task if the others do not hold op their end of the work and my input for evaluating my group members will not be good if I end up having to carry the group.

Tomorrow I start the process of formally evaluating the stress studies for my other subject.
 
just in case the next group meeting is a fail,
Ahhh... The trauma of group work. I hated it so much. I'm guessing being in an "older" group makes it less painful though: you guys all know why you're in this course and aren't just doing it for the credits.
 
93% on my latest quiz, I wonder if the creepy course coordinator will send out an email again to the high achieving students (all of the students I am aware of receiving the last letter were female)

my quiz results for think health are averaging 100% and my Quiz results for Behavioural health are averaging over 90%

I still don't understand how some students can completely fuck up these multi answer quizzes, if you actually read the questions it is pretty clear how many answers you need to pick for each question. The first B Health quiz, one of the men in the tute class could not understand why he only got 14% when he picked only one answer for each question. If the question says pick the best 2 answers pick 2 answers not 1.
 
Completed first day of challenge, the hardest part was recording a video update for the fundraiser but figured I need the practice recording myself in an another attemptt to get over my terror of public speaking. Who knows later in the month i may even feel comfortable enough to record a session. I will check back in later after my first tute for the day
 
So far so good today, group work went ok, first tute was sleep inducing. I should complement one student for asking for help but it forced the whole tute class to endure a step by step instruction on how to search for studies.

One more tute to go
 
It has been a more or less nothing day, hubby was out doing a flood cleanup at a local sports club that was inaccessible till now, son 3 was at work kegging up beer. Little miss had for watching the incubator roll her chook eggs (12). Completed my 100 squats for the day and played Yakuza on the x-box and kept away from study to give my brain a break.
 
Sounds like a very productive but non brain taxing Saturday. Hope you have a relaxing Sunday too.
 
I think I my brain is overloaded this morning, perfecting references for one of the assignments, every guide is slightly different so working out how to correctly cite a WHO report was doing my head in but for all the others I think I have all the punctuation correct and the italics applied in the right spots and the journal abbreviations correct after searching the journal database.

If I can get the marks for components I can control it takes some of the pressure off for actually standing in front of the lecture group and presenting it lol
 
If the guides disagree and you weren't supplied with or linked to an official guide the most important thing is to be consistent.

we were referred to the Uni Library guide and the Uni Library quick guide which are different from each other and I have looked at the guides from other universities which are different again for the WHO citation. Also had to use a different uni guide to reference a figure within a journal using the Vancouver style as it was left out of both the guide and quick guide but confirmed I had done it correctly with the tutors assistant.
 
When the difference between a Distinction and a high distinction can depend those extra marks from getting the citations correct it is worth the time to ensure all of the periods, commas and colons are in the right places, and making sure the correct parts are italicized (the difference between the guide and quick guide)

Hubby suggest I may be doing well enough to do Honors but either way I want to maximise my marks where possible.

In my behavioural health assignment I read the Rubric again and realised to have a chance of a HD I need to add in the 3rd optional research paper to analyze as the criteria in on section requires to include 3 not 2 as the difference between a HD and a D

I hope hubby does ok today, he is having his first driving lesson to start the process of getting a HR licence because his fire brigade would like him to be able to drive the tanker. After this lesson he will be able to drive the tanker with "L" plates and the brigade will pay for his test when the time comes.
