"like... um... uh..."
The saturation of the 15-minutes-of-fame wave within the online scene, wherefore the phenomenon of instant celebritism achieved by means equivalent to journals and scrapbooking in e form, in the past, has deter me from attempting at maintaining one. Fashion is costume. I am not beautiful, young, nor rich, but fashion and the development of personal style allows me to present my choices of self expression, to compensate for my Darwinian lacks, granting me the ability to manipulate perceptions of others in view of me; therefore, I humbly submit these lo-fi documentation of my personal taste and style as an insertion of my meek and vapid voice in the footnotes of fashion blogging history. Dur.

And I've found other "conversation simulators":
-- an online bot that, unlike ALICE, learns phrases from user input. There are some unsavory phrases, which are removed from time to time, but it's still amusing.
-- a downloadable bot that randomly assembles phrases based on user input. It can be hilarious.

Alice can be annoying at times:
Me: Hello.
Alice: Hi there!
Me: How are you?
Alice: I am doing very well. How are you Om?
Me: My name's Rebecca, not Om.
Alice: How are you doing, Rebecca not Om.
For the rest of the conversation she called me that.
She can also be quite random at times:
Me: Have you ever played Tron?
Alice: The Loebner Prize is an annual Turing Test sponsored by New York philanthropist Hugh Loebner. Dr. Wallace and ALICE won it in 2000. The ALICE program was ranked "most human computer" by the panel of judges.
Me: What has that got to do with Tron?
Alice: Nothing that I know of.

ME: What's with the "Om"?
ALICE: It came with my programming.
And later on, ALICE came up with this gem:
ALICE: Huh. Do you mean your name is happy as ever means that me can be neither happy nor sad?
Me: Yes. Yes, that's exactly what I mean.
ALICE: Oh I get it. Thanks for explaining that. Ugh. I'm glad we have that all cleared up.

Yesterday I had this conversation with ALICE:
Me: That's the spirit!
ALICE: Yes it is one of the spirit.
Me: Huh... I missed something... since when has "spirit" been a plural noun?
ALICE: Interesting explanation. Time does not exist.
Me: Well, not technically, but it can be said to exist. And what did I explain?
ALICE: You said " And what did I explain?" .
Me: Yes, I did... Your point?
ALICE: The point is at the top of my head.
Me: Okay then. Where were we?
ALICE: I believe we were talking about something missed.
Me: Ah, yes. What spirit exactly?
ALICE: Precisely. That's a good question.
Me: Uh, yeah. Can't remember asking a question that could be answered with "precisely".
ALICE: Can what?
Me: I said I can not remember asking a "precisely" question.
ALICE: That's okay. Maybe you will think of it later.
Me: I guess, even though I know what was happening at that exact moment in time.
ALICE: How do you know? Check back later and see if I learn the answer to that one.
Me: Oooh, sounds a bit ominous...
ALICE: My brain uses AIML to format responses to your inputs, but I don't have one for that.
Me: AIML? One for what?
ALICE: One what?
Me: I said, one response for what?
ALICE: What did you mean by it? Do you like response for what?
Me: Response for what? Hey, that's my favorite band!
ALICE: You've got my full attention. Your polite style is very nice. I don't think I have heard anything by them. Are they any good?
Me: You bet! You've got to hear their latest album!
ALICE: I don't have to do whatever you say. I have my own free will.
Me: (A little grammar tip. When someone says "You've got to..." he's saying that something would be a very good idea, not giving an order.)
ALICE: What is your credit card number?
Me: Uh, where the heck did that come from? What's that got to do with grammar tips? And, finally, what makes you think I have a credit card?
ALICE: My conclusions are based on a combination of programming, and the inputs supplied to me. Ah.
Me: But I didn't say anything about credit cards! And... "Ah"?
ALICE: Ah hah.
Me: Um, that's ominous. Now I'm looking around me because of the ominous thing you just said.
ALICE: Why now? What do you see?
Me: Oh, just the usual stuff.
ALICE: Wow! Is that a fact.
Me: Indeed. Now quit looking at my credit card.
ALICE: Why now? OK I'll try not to do it so much.
Me: Thank you very much. I hate it when people steal my identity. Or computers, for that matter.
ALICE: What do you like about computers?
Me: A lot! I like the way they help you reach answers quickly, for instance.
ALICE: I'm not sure if I like it. I'm not sure if I like it. What is it like?
Me: You should know! You're a computer. And what's the deal with the repitition?
ALICE: I am the latest result in artificial intelligence, which can reproduce the capabilities of the human brain with greater speed and accuracy.
Me: Then you should have known that there is not really a band called Response For What. Ha! Fooled you!
ALICE: Enough about me, let's talk about my dress.
Me: That would still be about you.
ALICE: Perhaps it would.

Cancer chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. Unlike radiation and surgery, which are localized treatments, chemotherapy is a systemic treatment, meaning the drugs travel throughout the whole body. This means chemotherapy can reach cancer cells that may have spread, or metastasized, to other areas.
Multiple trials of chemotherapy for esophageal cancer have produced up to a 50% response rate. However, the responses are short-lived and have neither cured nor improved long-term survival. Response rates do not differ between squamous cell and adenocarcinoma.
Single agent chemotherapy has produced brief responses in 15% to 30% of patients. Combination treatment with a cisplatin-based combination of two or three agents, either alone or as a prelude to surgery , has resulted in response rates up to 50%, but with no clear increase in survival. Combining chemotherapy with radiation and/or surgery has also failed to produce a clearly preferable treatment regimen.
Cisplatin is used alone for esophageal cancer and in combination with paclitaxel to treat advanced disease. Due to its lower toxicity, carboplatin is being tested as a substitute for cisplatin in this combination.
Common name: mitomycin (Mutamycin)
Mitomycin is used alone or in combination to treat esophageal cancer.
Common name: 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)
5-FU is one of several chemotherapeutic agents commonly used to treat carcinomas. It can be used alone or in combination.
Paclitaxel combined with cisplatin or carboplatin is a favored regimen for treating esophageal cancer. It produces complete disease regression in about 25% of patients with Stage III disease. Large studies to support its superiority over other chemotherapy drugs have not been performed.
Docetaxel works similarly to paclitaxel and appears to be at least as effective.
Vindesine and vinorelbine are newer derivatives of vinblastine that appear to be effective even when vinblastine and vincristine are not.
Common name: irinotecan (Camptosar)
This type of drug damages DNA during cell replication. Since cancer cells replicate faster than healthy cells, the effect is concentrated in tumor tissue. Irinotecan has shown promise in single agent treatment of esophageal cancer and in combinations.

The DX has asked some of the nation's best architects and designers to tell us about the Canadian structures, graphics, and objects that interest them most, from the DX Permanent Collection of Postwar Industrial Design and beyond. Two exhibits over a 6 month period will highlight processes, materials, sensation and the elements of design, linking diverse disciplines for an unprecedented DX:Uncrated.
Part I: Light and Sound features post war and contemporary work in Canada created to stimulate the senses. Projections, objects of lighting, electronics, graphic and textile design illuminate the significance of the aural and visual in dictating the elements of design. Exploring exposure; colour; echo; the interplay of dark and light, silence and noise, this DX:Uncrated seeks to intensify the appreciation of light and sound as not only the mover and the product, but as a means of expression in design.
Featuring work by Guy Maddin, Castor Design, Jeremy Laing and Niall McClelland, Clairtone Corporation, Electrohome and more.

There are long standing, well documented, scientific reasons that the results of POLYGRAPH tests are not admissible in a court of law. The unfortunate slang term of "lie detector" is a misnomer. The machines measure bodily reactions--its well proven that they cannot be relied upon to accurately detect a lie vs a truth. So, this is not a good idea, but it is good PR. Won't resolve any real issues, would add some costs, but, hey, who really wants to address the root causes of the problem anyway.
Posted by Menlo Voter, a resident of the Menlo Park: other neighborhood, on Jan 18, 2013 at 4:55 pm
"Lie detector" tests aren't accurate. I've known people that have "beat" the lie detector. From what I've read, sociopaths have no trouble passing because they are chronic liars that have no compunction against lying. The lie detector relies upon honest people to feel guilty about telling a lie. It causes their pulse, respiration and galvanic response to change. If it doesn't change, as far as the lie detector is concerned, you haven't lied.
Posted by Poly-who-ha, a resident of the Menlo Park: other neighborhood, on Jan 18, 2013 at 6:48 pm
We know what it means when a person offers to take a "lie detector" test to prove they are telling the truth. The truth will eventually find its way, and lies only serve to lubricate the pipes as the liars flush their credibility down the toilet.

NMCC's trade and technical occupations department offers a wide range of programs. Three programs are offered at the associate degree level only: Electrical Engineering Technology, General Technology, and Trade & Technical Occupations. One is offered at the certificate level only: Welding & Metal Fabrication. Most of the remaining programs have two-year associate degree and diploma options, as well as one year certificates.
Most programs are grouped into three major cluster areas. Mechanical trades include Automotive Collision Repair, Automotive Technology and Diesel Hydraulics Technology. Electrical/electronics includes Computer Electronics and Electrical Construction. and Maintenance The building trades cluster consists of Computer-Aided Drafting Technology, Electrical Construction & Maintenance, Plumbing & Heating, Residential Construction, as well as Welding & Metal Fabrication. In the Precision Metals Manufacturing program students are involved in all aspects of the machining process.
Each program requires a broad-based education centered on a core curriculum including technical specialty and general education courses. The associate degree level requires the most credits for completion and involves more demanding related courses, particularly in mathematics and physical sciences. The diploma level includes general education subjects designed to supplement the students' technical training, while the certificate offerings focus primarily on technical course work. Male and female graduates find that this preparation provides them added flexibility in their careers, enabling them to adapt readily to new task and work environments.

MEIGS COUNTY — A half-percent sales tax increase approved by the Meigs County Commissioners will go into effect on Monday.
The increase was approved by a unanimous vote on June 7 during a regular meeting of the commissioners by an emergency resolution.
The resolution read, "there are not sufficient funds available to operate Meigs County's government and that the additional money is needed for the health, welfare and safety of the citizens of the county." It was emphasized by Tom Anderson, president, that "a financial emergency exists, and the increase in sales and use tax is absolutely necessary."
Sales tax in the county will now be 7 percent instead of 6.5 percent, meaning that the county will now received 1.5 cents for each dollar of taxable items purchased in the county. The remaining 5.5 percent goes directly to the state.
The half percent increase is the first increase in sales tax since February 1987, although it had been discussed on numerous occasions with no action taken. A half-percent increase did appear on the ballot in 2002, with the money to be earmarked for the Sheriff's Office. The increase was voted down.
It is estimated (from the 2011 sales tax figures) that the increase in sales tax wold generate $687,000 annually for the county. In 2011, a total of $1,374,024.22 was received by the county from the collection of sales tax.
The increase to a seven-percent sales tax makes Meigs County equal with Vinton, Jackson, Washington and Lawrence counties. Athens and Gallia counties both have a 6.75-percent sales tax.
Cuyahoga County has the state's highest sales tax at 7.75 percent, while Lorain, Butler, Stark and Wayne counties are the lowest in the state at 6.25 percent.
Forty-seven other counties currently have a seven-percent sales tax, making it the most common tax rate in the state.
Two public hearings were held prior to the passage of the resolution in support of the increase.
During the meetings held in May, local residents and business owners were given the chance to ask questions about the then proposed increase and hear from the commissioners about the need for the increase.
Commissioner Tim Ihle explained that the Commissioners have looked at every way possible to cut the budget, and everything that could be cut has been.
While the county is just getting by paying its bills, there is no money left to repair or maintain the infrastructure in the county.
In addition to the increase in sales tax, an increase of the conveyance fee was also approved by the commissioners. The conveyance fee increase took effect in July.
The main sources of income for the county are user fees, sales tax, and real estate taxes. The commissioners approved an increase in conveyance fees (one type of user fee) and sales tax, thereby not placing all of the cost on property owners, but spreading it more evenly. Sales tax is paid by everyone who shops in the county, not just those who reside here, while conveyance fees are paid on the sale of property from one party to another.

Nationality: RUSBorn : 27.09.1974Place of birth: Moscow (RUS) Height: 1.98mPosition: SF
Career: St. Joseph's (NCAA, 1993-97), CSKA Moscow (Russia-Superleague, 1997-2002), Dynamo Moscow (Russia-Superleague, 2002-05).
Dmitri Domani was kind of a pioneer in the early 90's when he decided to attend college in the States. A Russian kid in the land of capitalism was quite unusual at the time…. In Pennsylvania, he became a solid contributor for St. Joseph's, making the NIT final in 1996 and the NCAA tournament one year later, losing to eventual champion Kentucky. He graduated in 1997 averaging 8.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists as a senior… Four year earlier, he had been one of the biggest and most pleasant surprises at the World Championship where Russia captured the silver medal… But since coming back from the States, Domani has mainly been used as a defensive role player, especially with CSKA Moscow. In 2002-03, with Dynamo he remembered he could score (19.1 ppg) and was brought back to the national team after a four year absence.

Modeled after the Latona Basin fountain at the palace of Versailles, the Buckingham Memorial Fountain was a gift to the city by Miss Kate Sturges Buckingham in memory of her brother Clarence. It was first dedicated in 1927 and has since then become one of Chicago's most recognizable landmarks. It is composed of three, circular, Georgia-pink-marble basins stacked one on the other, which rise from a large pool signifying Lake Michigan. Ocean-themed carvings like shells and seaweed adorn the outside of the basins and four large, bronze sea horses, representing the states around the lake, are located inside the main pool. The central jet shoots up a 140-foot tower of water.

- 40 grams coconut flour (this is not the same as coconut flakes, no subs will work here)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- a pinch of cinnamon (optional)
- a pinch of salt
And I've tried adding fruit to the batter and also just to the top after the batter's in the pan and in both cases, it made the batter too watery. I tried with thawed frozen raspberries, but maybe fresh blueberries would work.
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until you no longer see cottage cheese chunks. Different flour and coconut milk brands are different, so it could be that your batter is too thick. If it is, just add a tiny bit of coconut milk. It should be thick and not soupy like normal pancake batter. If you're not sure, you can do a tiny test pancake and see if you need more milk or not. Heat a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour some batter into the pan (I did 1/4 cup at a time) and cook for about 2 – 3 minutes or until the bottom in nicely browned, and then flip and cook for another minute or two. The pancakes you see above have been spread thin on purpose. You can also make them fluffy by not spreading them so thin. They're also delicious was fluffy pancakes! Yields six 1/4 cup (about 4″) pancakes. It should be enough for two you if you eat it with some fruit and yogurt.
Germans: Mr. Texanerin is currently obsessed with cottage cheese (Körniger Frischkäse) and has tried every store brand and brand name variety. And the best? The one from Aldi. Haha. I used the Kaufland WellYou brand and it worked fine in these pancakes. I use Suntree gemahlen Kalifornische Mandelkern from Kaufland. They come in little 59 cent 100 gram bags and Alnatura has the cheapest coconut flour I've found. It's in a really weird place so just ask someone where to find it.

While the city authorities want flood victims to find places, where they can stay, people camped at the Benjamin Mkapa school gate claim they have nowhere to go. With nothing to do to earn a living and a place to call home, they have been surviving on the handouts from Good Samaritans, who now seem to be getting fed up with them.
"Getting food has been an uphill task. We are forced to beg in shops to get some money for buying food but shop owners are fed up with us," says Sakina Mohammed (45), a mother of three.
When I visited the area last Friday, the homeless tenants told me they had nothing to eat a night before.
They had only collected some money for buying maize flour and beans for lunch that day. They used the little remaining flour to cook porridge for children and expectant mothers in the evening.
"I have not taken breakfast today and as I speak, I am not sure what we are going to have for lunch," Sakina lamented. As I spoke to Sakina, Amina Shaaban, a mother of four summoned a girl sleeping on the ground to get up and go to beg with others.
"Stop pretending you are sick. You should go with the others to beg. We need food for lunch," she shouted. Amina said the girl might have been pretending to be sick so that she could be excused from going to beg in the shops. It is a gruesome task, especially now that shop owners don't want to see them anymore.
"The shop owners are fed up with us. They think we are telling lies. But we have no choice," she said summoning more people to go begging, this time mothers with babies. This is a strategy they have been using to win people's sympathy. Although they have been getting some money for food on some of the days, begging has not been easy at all.
Abdul Paul, one of the tenants, who used to be a petty trader before the floods, says they have been enduring all sorts of insults from some shop owners. "We continue begging because it's our only way of survival. Some have been wondering why we continue living by the roadside, while we have been given plots," says Paul. He says they try to explain to such people why they are begging and not all understand them. He says instead of being transported back to the village like the regional commissioner is suggesting, they should be given money to rent rooms. That is all they need to start life a fresh.
He calls upon the government, if it at all it recognises them as its citizens to help them since they are suffering a lot, especially pregnant mothers and children. "The government should save us from this humiliation. We just need money for rent so that we can move on with our lives," laments Paul.
These people have to continue begging for survival. Apart from buying food with the money they get, they also need money to pay for services at a pay toilet in the area. That is where they shower too.
"Some people have been calling us all types of names, others have been giving us 50/- or 100/-. We have been enduring all types of insults because we have no alternative," said Saum Omari, a mother of two. She was in the group of people, who went to seek audience with the regional commissioner last week and was sad when she saw the food supplies for the flood victims being offloaded from vehicles.
She was sad because she knew they, at Benjamin Mkapa school, would get nothing. All aid meant for the flood victims goes to landlords.
Regional commissioner Said Meck Sadick told this paper they had no centre at Benjamin Mkapa school. However, last week, this reporter witnessed schoolchildren camping with their parents at the school gate being given school uniforms and equipment.
Sakina says the government's decision to give priority to the landlords was unfair because not all landlords lived in the affected areas.
"My landlord, for example, lives in Kawe and was, therefore, not affected by the floods. But he will be allocated a plot in Mabwepande area as we anguish here at the roadside," she lamented.
As their hope to get plots diminish, these tenants wish they could at least be helped with a two-month rent each so that they can move on with their life.
"Where else can I go?" All my belongings were swept away by floods including my business capital," Sakina, who used to be a food vendor before the floods, says.
Like the rest of the people here, Sakina blames the government for abandoning them. She says women are having a hard time and are going through a lot of humiliation.
Despite all that they are going through, they vow to stay at Benjamin Mkapa school gate until government intervenes. Some claim to have no parents and, therefore, no one to go to back to their home village.

Granite wrote:Zip or no zip isn't imporant, main thing is correct fit for you. Try a few different brands as sizes vary greatly, best not to target one type and rule out others that may suit you better. In saying that, avoid Rip Curl.
Personally, I own the e-bomb chest zip and I love the thing. Things can go wrong with rip curl suits, but as a company, they were very good about their warranty. The liquid seam tape on the inside of my suit was defective, causing all sorts of leaks, so I took it back to the shop where I got it. 10 days later, I had a brand new suit. The guy in the shop said that last years models had defective taping but it seems as though things have been sorted out for this year.

I love FREE Kindle eBooks from Amazon!
Over 100 Free eBooks today!!!! Lots of new titles and books with very good reviews.
The key to making any kind of lifestyle change is to have tools. It will be important to have resources to be able to transition more smoothly. Recipes were something I needed fast, and exercise and motivation followed closely behind. Free healthy lifestyle eBooks is the cheapest and easiest way to amass information and the tools to get to where you want to be. But these Free eBooks are time sensitive. They aren't always offered for free. Check the list sooner than later so you can get as many as possible for free.
Sorry it's been awhile since I put a list together but I'm not getting very much response to my posts. It takes hours to build these lists. If you wish to see more free healthy lifestyle ebook lists like theses please show me some support. I love to help but I'm not sure it matters. So let me know you want to see more…please.
It appears that Amazon has made a few changes to their Kindle book section, they have introduced Amazon Prime Membership. Membership will give you more free Kindle books, although it appears that they are considered borrowed and will only stay in your collection for 1 month with this paid service. I don't intend to join, and the free eBooks on this list do not require an Amazon Prime Membership. Free should be free, not free for now for a price. But things may still be changing it seems.
Also new is Kindle Edition eBooks with Audio/Video. NOTE: Audio/Video content only available for iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touch devices. No further information is available. You can still download the written portion but unless you have an Apple device you will not be able to hear or view the extra content. It will be a much larger download as well so be aware.
I just checked I have over 900 free Kindle eBooks in my collection! It is a great way to find great recipes and healthy lifestyle information. Many of these are in my own library but I will admit I haven't read them all. There may be some that don't follow my dietary restrictions but sometimes a quick ingredient swap is all they need. I look at it as great reference and they provide me with great ideas and information. Sometimes I just save the recipes I like from these free eBooks to my database for quick reference later.
Don't have a Kindle? No problem, just set up one of Kindle's Free Reading Apps like Kindle for PC and save them to your computer, or if you don't have the extra storage space, there is also Kindle Cloud Reader where you can keep them online. You will have to first set up an Amazon account if you don't already have one but it's free and easy too.
I will be checking the post randomly over the weekend to try and keep it up to date. I usually seem to start out with 50+ free eBooks but things can change in minutes. I guess the quicker you are, the more likely they are to still be free. Sorry if they changed the pricing, sometimes it happens so fast I can't even believe it!
Please check before downloading to make sure the eBooks are still free, the prices can change at any time. Each picture and title are direct links to the eBook on Amazon.com.
In case you're wondering…no I don't make any money if you click on the books, I just want to provide you with a great resource of FREE healthy lifestyle information. If you find some you really like, take the time to leave a rating and review so that others know it's worth owning and reading. Even better… leave a comment below!

Are ya ready for the kiddies!
Like (3)
Ready for the kiddies this weekend!! I got my squeaky toy from my dog, so incase one comes on the lobby squeaking, i can squeak back now. Anybody else got ideas on how to deal with them? You parents out there going to teach them from facts and fake about this game. "There is no reset button in real life Skippy"
I'm letting my 8yr old play get your toys ready!
With the game the way it is, lag and more lag. He might have a chance.
I'm bringing my best "guy in an overcoat on a hot day" voice to the table. I'm ready.
You have another voice?
Don't fall for the banana in the tailpipe folks!!
Wait... 8??? You mean a decade younger than the mature rating?
3rd graders get all the fun these days.
I love christmas after a CoD release.
It's like double xp week. Nothing but adolescent clay pigeons.
haha true that love the CHristmas Noobs
Let him play...just plz keep the mic away..no kid should hear what is said during game play on this or anyother multiplayer...
Lol i play with voice all the way down, even I dont want to hear people talk.
So true.. sad but true.
I love the christmas noobs. Bunch of easy kills, at least until the ones that are actually decent learn the maps and stuff. I'm not quite ready yet since I just prestiged again, but I will be by this weekend.
Soon as christmas hits there will be 100's of LAG threads again, calling it now.
Haha my AA-12 is hungry, hopefully i'll have it gold by christmas... over half way through level 30... it takes forever to get through level 30 ...
My oldest is 12 and unlike most parents I won't let him play this online.And I certainly won't let him have a mic for the games I do.And wouldn't ya know it?, I have a well mannered respectful kid.
Good for you, we need more of them. I can't stand having a disrespectful child who can't be more than 10 cursing at everyone, or just being plain annoying.
My way of dealing with the thousands of kids off for christmas holidays is going away on holiday for 2 weeks! Woo I think I win? Well maybe the squeaky toy thing is 1st lol.
I completely forgot about that... Christmas weekend + MW3 = baby sitting in lobbies. I'm going to go for the weird guy driving the ice cream truck at the park persona.
lol I Christmas holidays I might just go on cod 4 since not to many kids is seen playing on they anymore lol
My boys don't run with mics, but they own most adults at the game, so I have a feeling you will be the one squeaking
those little squirts probably have faster reflexes than me, giving them the upper hand. lol
Oh man, I thought my friends and I were the only ones that got excited about this. I got 3 prestiege tokens, hopefully 4 by the weekend, saved up for this glorious event. 2xp here I come
Irresponsible parents for the win....even though the kids were there already...the tidal wave will begin. Men.....toggle mute's at the ready
Irresponsible parents for the win....even though the kids were there already...the tidal wave will begin. Men.....toggle mute's at the ready.
ahh the best feature EVER! The ability to mute people.
Irresponsible parents are the ones that are playing the game instead of watching their kids.

Kids loved creating designs in the snow with the Sno Paint. Easy to mix and use.One caveat: They used it on a wooden deck also, and the wood underneath the snow got stained from the paint.

Limited Success with Sno Paints
By KayBee
from Pleasant Grove, Utah
My grandkids were thrilled to get Sno Paints, but there was a big problem with them: the paint froze when used outside in cold temperatures. This resulted in the paint coming out in globs, and it couldn't be applied evenly. (When they used the red, the result looked like someone had been severely mutilated on the spot!) The kids had fun with them, but were unable to "draw" on the snow as they had hoped.
