Max POV
As soon as I opened the Cullen's front door a white blur went streaking past me, then came back inside as a clearly visible Alice dragging Gazzy behind her.
"No, NO! Please don't, please! I beg of you, have mercy! NOOOoooooo…." Gazzy was pulled out of sight and his scream reverberated around the room. I turned to Bella, who was sitting on the couch with Nudge and watching the whole scene with bemusement.
"What was that all about?" I asked, and Bella chuckled.
"Alice is giving him a haircut. Vampire hair doesn't grow very fast, and she loves working with scissors."
Nudge tapped Bella on the shoulder.
"How about George?" She asked impatiently. Bella shook her head.
"Not even close." Bella smirked and Nudge let out an exasperated sigh.
"My power doesn't work on her." The almost birthday girl complained to me. "I can't see her past, and she is making me guess things about her piece by piece." She turned back to Bella.
"Please give me a hint. What letter does your dad's name begin with?"
"Of course."
Angel and I watched the two progress for a little while. Fang had snuck upstairs, and Angel had forwarded his thoughts to me, which explained that he had some work to do on Nudge's present. We were trying to keep the fact that we knew about her birthday a secret. She hadn't told us it yet, and her party was tomorrow.
Iggy had taken Renesme outside with him, and after a minute Angel and I headed to the kitchen to make the chocolate chip cookies I had promised her. By the time we had finished eating the entire batch Alice had trimmed Gazzy's hair so that it no longer covered his eyes. I had been beginning to think that he might start believing the top half of the world was always yellow.
Alice tried to persuade me to let her fish tail braid my hair. Why anyone would want fish tails – or any other part of a fish, for that matter – in their hair was beyond me. I managed to get out of it by volunteering Angel to take my place.
Gazzy had abandoned the kitchen when he learned about the lack of uneaten cookies, so I went into the living room in search of him. Nudge and Bella were still talking, and Edward and Jasper were now occupying two arm chairs by the wall of windows. Jasper was reading, and Edward was staring at him as if he was wearing a dress. According to the mind reader's expression, something wasn't right.
And the "wasn't right" was sitting behind Jasper's chair with his fist shoved in his mouth to keep from laughing aloud. I noticed Edward's eyes bug out and his mouth harden into a line in surprise. At the same time Gazzy let a barely audible giggle escape. It was enough for the vampire to hear.
"You!" Edward shouted, causing Jasper and Gazzy to do their person-who-sat-on-a-porcupine impression. I won't bore you with the cartoonish chase scene that followed, but from the shouting I was able to sort of piece together what happened.
Angel hears thoughts by directing her conciseness at a person. Edward bases his on recognizing the different sounds of people's thought voices. Like Gazzy can mimic a voice, he can also imitate a thought voice. He claimed he had always been able to do it, but it hadn't been much use until now.
I didn't completely catch what Gazzy tricked Edward into thinking Jasper thought, but I heard the words "fluffy pink boa", "miniature schnauzer", and "Rommel" repeated over and over.
I roughly grabbed The Gasman by the arm and led him upstairs, away from the dispute. Just to add to the illusion that I didn't find his prank hilarious I gave him the "don't you know you shouldn't fake an empathetic's thoughts to trick a mind reading vampire" lecture. I am sure you have all heard that one before.
When we reached Edward's old bedroom I was surprised not to see Fang there. His present to Nudge currently appeared to be a mound of dirt, a plexi glass sheet, some solder, and a large bucket, so I assumed he hadn't finished. I retrieved my present to Nudge out of a plastic bag and showed it to Gazzy. He apparently couldn't wrap his so he helped me with mine.
I reached into another bag from the mall in search of wrapping paper. Instead I found what appeared to be… a Mickey Mouse alarm clock? It was just like the one I had had back in Colorado.
I held it up so Gazzy could see it.
"Did you and Ig buy this?" I asked, and he shook his head. "It must have been Fang then", I mumbled under my breath. I raised my voice so Gazzy could hear. "Do you think Fang got this for Nudge?" I caught a hint of jealousy in my voice and stifled it.
Gazzy rolled his eyes. "Of course he got it for you."
I cocked an eyebrow. "Why would he do that? It's not my birthday."
Gazzy let out an exasperated sigh. "Hmm. Let me think. How many girls has Fang had a total crush on for, like, five years?" He dramatically swiveled his blue eyes around to stare at me. I gawked.
"Fang does not have a crush on me! He gave up after that time he tried to kiss me at the dock."
It was Gazzy's turn to raise an eyebrow.
"Right?" I asked pleadingly.
Gazzy smirked.
"Right?" I said again, though I already knew the answer. It didn't seem to surprise me; I guess I always knew he still liked me. He had just stopped trying. I hit my forehead with my palm, then ran my fingers through my hair. "I am such a moron." I muttered to myself. Trough the hair that had fallen in front of my face I saw Gazzy's eyebrows raise and his grin broaden.
"You like him too, don't you?" He said, his voice somewhere between curiosity and smugness.
To my complete dismay my heart started to do a little pitter patter thing that could not be healthy, and I felt my face burn as if I had been in the sun too long. Gazzy started singing "Max and Fang, sittin' in a tree" under his breath, which sent me over the edge.
I tackled Gazzy and pinned his shoulders to the ground with my forearm. I put on an expression that could only be described as "terrifying" and leaned close to him, growling, "I do NOT like fang." He started snickering.
"Suuuure," he said in a patronizing tone, and I did a sort of girly shriek thing. For those of you who have younger brothers, you have my sympathy. But at least yours can't mimic voices.
"Oh Max," Gazzy mocked in Fang's voice, "I love you sooooo much!"
He switched to my voice "Fang, I am totally in love with you, but I like playing with your emotions so much more."
I sighed in defeat, and raised a hand to stop him from continuing. "Fine. I like Fang. But it doesn't change anything. We can't like date," I said the word like it was all the profanities combined, "it would just be weird, we have been like siblings for so long."
Gazzy grinned. "You liiiiiiiiiike Fang!"
With one hand I grabbed him by the neck, and he made a satisfying choking sound. "Tell anyone and the next thing you will be saying is 'Max, I didn't know you could hang someone by a noose made from their own leg.'"
He spluttered something unintelligible and nodded. I let him up and he backed slowly out of the room.
I sighed and picked up Nudge's finished present and set it down on Edward's sofa. We wouldn't need it until tomorrow.
I dropped the present and it hovered in mid air. I tried to shove it down, but it wouldn't move. It was suspended about a foot above the couch. I carefully touched the air beneath it and it was stiff. I brought my arm back and jabbed the space below the present. Fang suddenly appeared, rubbing his knee where I had poked him.
I opened my mouth, but he cut me off.
"Yes, I was there the whole time." He let out a lopsided grin.
I tried to speak, and was again interrupted.
"Yes, I heard everything you said."
I sat down next to him and pinched the bridge of my nose in annoyance at myself.
"Gazzy was right." He slouched down so he would be at my eye level. Despite my better judgment I looked up at him and smiled a little. Then I picked up the golden pillow next to me and socked him over the head with it.
Of course he picked up another pillow and clocked my upside the chin.
Four Hours Later
Nudge's POV
Something strange was going on….
Rosalie was being nice to me.
"Want more popcorn?" The Barbie with fangs asked politely. Of course we couldn't eat the stuff, but we liked the smell.
"I'm fine," I replied, leaning back into the lumpy sofa in Bella and Edward's house, and glancing back at the TV. Bella, Alice, and Rose had found out that being on the run from evil scientists for most my life had left me with a poor education of classic movies.
In the last three hours we had watched all of The Lord of The Rings, and we had just moved onto The Princess Bride. Of course we watched on super, super, super fast forward mode.
I heard footsteps in the distance, and a second later Bella was in the doorway.
"Hey Rosalie, um, Alice would like your help with, uh, um, cleaning. Yeah, she is cleaning the house and would like your opinion on her cleaning." Bella said with much stuttering.
For a minute Rosalie just glared at her, one eyebrow cocked, and then a light bulb seemed to go on. "Ah, yes. The cleaning, I'll go help."
"Could I help too?" I asked with uncharacteristic politeness and briefness. Honestly, Rosalie tended to scare courtesy into me. Bella quickly claimed that it was much more mandatory for me to be watching TV. What was going on? I tried to follow Bella's past, but her book had unbreakable chains wrapped around it. Instead I tried Alice's.
It took me a second to see everything she had done in the past three hours. Another second passed before I realized that the entire flock's activities had also followed the same general theme: they were preparing for a party. One more second left me wondering how they had known about my birthday.
Four seconds was all it took for the entire secret to be blown.
"Alice is what!?" I shrieked. Bella closed her eyes and groaned in defeat.
"Well, we tried." Rosalie said lazily, throwing herself onto the couch, and focusing on The Princess Bride.
"Please don't focus on what they are doing. It was meant to be a surprise, just wait till morning; your friends need to sleep." Bella looked at me in earnest, and I stared back in horror. Waiting?!?!?! But, they were birthday decorating for me! How could I stay away? Certainly Alice would understand THAT!
"How could you?!?!?!?" I shouted at Bella. Didn't she know I had the patience of kumquat? Bella looked affronted at my sudden outburst.
"Nudge, Nudge, Nudge! Calm down! Here, Lets…play some board games. Yeah, we've got board games coming out of our ears," she rushed to stop my mini vampire panic attack. I say mini only because I didn't have to breathe into a paper bag. I raised my eyebrow at her. "Emmett," she said in explanation.
And so that is where the board game competition of a century began.
We each had a set of chess pieces, and you began with moving a pawn around a monopoly board. If someone landed on the space you were on they took your piece, and you would have to replace it with another one in your pile. If your king is taken you lose.
When you pass go you get 200 dollars (apparently Emmett had made the monopoly money into a suit for Halloween, so we played with real bills) and you get two scrabble chips. You earn a property when you have the scrabble pieces to spell out its name.
If you land on community chest or chance you draw from a pile of Uno and normal cards. If you draw a normal card, you draw that many chips from the bag; if you got an Uno card, you put that many chips into the bag. In honor of my birthday we started with sixteen chips.
If you land on someone's property not only do you have to pay them the money, but if it was a monopoly you had to also pay a chip for each house. It was against the rules to feel the scrabble pieces to tell what letter they are.
You win when everyone else runs out of money or loses all their chess pieces. Would you believe that Alice had three monopolies within five minutes? Yeah, so did I.
The game lasted until around 7:00 AM, in the end Rosalie, who had been the banker, won. Don't ask. After another hour of painstaking waiting, Bella led me into the big house blindfolded. I could hear breathing all around me, the pulsing of blood. I was still a newborn, and I was glad Bella had a restraining hand on my shoulder.
"Go ahead!" Angel said excitedly, and I heard a faint sound, hair hitting skin. Someone was nodding.
"Here we go." Alice said from surprisingly close, and I heard a footstep before I felt the blindfold coming off. I was practically bouncing up and down with excitement.
The cloth fell away, and the first thing I saw was Iggy holding a ginormo cake. My eyes focused quickly, and I saw the rest of the flock standing with the vampires. Max was front and center, Renesme on her shoulders. Gazzy was next to Iggy, in position to catch the cake in case Iggy dropped it. Edward was next to Bella, both standing by Max incase she dropped Nessie.
Rose and Emmett were to my left, Jasper by them and Alice next to me. Fang, Angel, Esme, and Carlisle were off to the right. They were all wearing those tacky party hats, and watching my expression expectantly. And then I noticed the house.
The place was covered with balloons. Surprisingly, it didn't look tacky. They varied from a light cream to a rich silver, and were as small a marble, to as big as a watermelon. They were taped to the walls to make spirals and loops, arcs and waves. Silver embroidery strung lightly around the top of the walls, and was spun over the surface of the ceiling.
The cake was obviously using the same theme, covered in finely rolled fondant lines and blown spheres of sugar.I didn't have to pretend to be surprised.
The next hour was filled with much off key singing, cake eating (for the flock and Nessie), and Alice chasing Gazzy around the house after she discovered he had been throwing darts at the balloons. Then it was finally time for presents.
First was the gift from Max and Angel. They instructed me to rip off the paper, but wait before opening the box. I obediently closed my eyes and held out my hand and something rough and hard dropped into my palm. It felt so heavy, but in reality if hardly weighed a thing, especially with vampire strength. There was just so much past around it.
"It's an ammonite fossil." Angel told me happily. I opened my eyes, and sure enough, I was holding what looked like a spiral shaped rock. I pressed it between my palms, and felt its story sitting there, like a huge encyclopedia.
"Thank you!" I hugged Max and Angel, Alice placing a warning hand on my arm. It was almost painful to let them go, the smell of blood, although dulled by the bird DNA was still so tempting.
"Open ours next!" Gazzy shouted. Iggy glared at him, and then whispered something in his ear. I could have heard every word they were saying, but I chose to tune them out.
"Fine," Gazzy pouted, "Open the other's first." As if on cue Fang handed me a huge awkwardly wrapped present. I pulled the silver paper off, and was still confused. It appeared to be a large, shallow plastic box with a plexi glass sheet covering the top. In the bottom was a layer of fine, black dirt, and upon closer inspection of the plexi glass sheet, I realized there were small silver dots covering the bottom.
I pressed my hand to the top, and my fingers tingled, the way they did when I picked up something metal. I flexed my mind, not sure what it would do, and a layer of dirt rose off the bottom of the bucket and stuck to the underside of the plexi glass sheet.
When I pulled my arm back, the dirt continued to stick there, still in the shape of a hand. I traced my finger along the box's lid, writing out the words Thank You. Everywhere I touched, a bit of dirt would rise off the bottom and stick to the top.
"It's solder," Fang explained. "The silver dots are solder. You magnetize them, and iron sand sticks to them." I smiled, and put my hand back where I had it at first. Instead of pushing my power out, I brought it back in, and the black sand fell back down.
I walked over a few steps to hug Fang, and then thought better of it.
The Cullens handed me their small present, and I opened it to find a stack of cards. I had a driver's license for each age, starting at sixteen, and going up to thirty. There were other things too, an FBI card, a few ID cards with different names, and a membership to the local gardening club.
"NOW can she open ours?" Gazzy looked pleadingly up at Iggy.
"Ok." He replied, tossing me a wrapped present that fit in the palm of my hand. Eagerly, I ripped it open, and inside was the sweetest looking key anyone has ever seen. The metal went straight out from base in a burst of a silvery blue color. The foundation itself looked as if it had been made by stuffing liquid silver into a frosting bag and squeezing it out into squiggles.
"Whoa. Holy smokes! What does it go to? If it is half as cool as this key……. omg omg omg omg ahhhhh! Whatsitgoto? Do you think I could wear this key as a necklace without looking like a weirdo? Heck, I'm a VAMPIRE, that can FLY! Let them call me a weirdo!"
I suddenly realized I had been being led outside the entire time I was talking. In front of the house was a shiny motorcycle with a huge red bow on it. It was silvery blue like the key, and had the same drizzled silver affect. It looked very uncomfortable, but I didn't care anymore. The key fit perfectly.
I looked at Max, and noticed that her eyes were blazing.
"You got her a motorcycle?" She seethed at Iggy.
"Yeah those things are dangerous." Bella said, wearily.
Without hesitation, I jumped on, turned the key, and was off. I had read about these in Jeb's magazines way back when. They weren't exaggerating about how fast these went. I was almost halfway down the driveway before I heard Max shouting at me that I should wear a helmet.
I drove back without any hands, still a little scared of Max's horrified look, despite that I knew I could take her with one hand behind my back.
"Fine." Max said. "No one who isn't over sixteen is allowed to ride." She looked at the devastated Gazzy and indifferent Angel. "And I better not see anyone with a heartbeat not wearing a helmet."
Of course after the rules were established Max claimed she needed a turn, and Iggy magically pulled a helmet that matched the bike out from behind his back.
An hour later I was sitting on the front stoop, watching Max letting Gazzy have the turn on the bike he had been begging for for the past hour. Max drove in circles, and I swear there were tectonic plates movin' faster than her. Nessie, who was sitting on Alice's lap was laughing and cheering.
Iggy sat down next to me, and tapped me on the shoulder.
"Can I show you something?" He asked and I nodded. The motorcycle would be there tomorrow, and I was enjoying letting other people drive it.
He led me back through the house and out the door towards the woods. We both jumped into the air, and I followed him, not sure where he was going.
I have no idea how he did it, but he managed to land relatively gracefully on the branch of a large oak tree, and motion for me to join him.
I sat down and leaned my back against the trunk of the tree, not that it was more comfortable, it just seemed natural. Looking closer at my back rest; I noticed some odd dents. I focused, and reached back mentally, sifting through this tree's past for something unnatural. Huh, Iggy had been here before. And judging by the way he had been punching the tree, he hadn't been happy. I then carefully followed him back until I had found the cause of his tree abuse. It didn't take me long to detect the reason. So that's why the flock had been avoiding Jacob for a while.
Iggy tapped my shoulder, pulling me out of thought.
"I had made you something else for your birthday," he said in his usual quiet way. So is that why he had brought me out here? What could he be giving me that he wouldn't in front of the Cullens? Or was it the flock?
He took a copper colored chain from his pocket and handed it to me. I took it; eager, and looked closer at it. There was a little wooden charm hanging from it. On one side it was a fang and on the other it was a wing, the tip of the feathers meeting up with the point of the tooth. I could feel his past all around it; he must have carved it himself.
"I made it myself. Renesme helped me see what I was doing. The fang is supposed to represent you being a vampire, and the wing is for you being a part of the flock."
And suddenly everything clicked into place – why he had reacted so strongly when the flock thought I was going to die, why it was he who had never left me while I was changing, and why he had carved me a necklace. He loved me. And I guess I loved him.
I noticed then that we had inadvertently been leaning towards each other, but neither of us really minded. He put his hand on the back of my head and my heart swelled. And we leaned closer.
Then a new, different passion overtook me. The Nudge I had been a second ago disappeared, as the monster in me that had saved my life surfaced. The intoxicating smell coming off Iggy was too much, I couldn't resist. Pulled by an un-fightable force, I leaned even closer to him, my teeth biting down where the blood pulsed loudest in his neck.

|FreeMarker integration
|Mon, 09 Aug 2004 19:45:14 GMT
Is anybody interested in FreeMarker integration with cocoon? There is no single word (Oh there are some freemarker occurences but they do not stick to the subject) about FreeMarker on the cocoon-dev list. It is BSD style licensed so there is no problem with shipping it with cocoon I think. To say the truth: there is NO good templating language to use with cocoon: 1) XSP is just a step ahead from JSP 1.2 and step back from JSP 2.0 (this is just a quick comment - I maybe wrong, anyway: XSP sucks) 2) Velocity is out of question right now - there is even no xml/html escape utility so a newbie ends up with having a template that could generate an invalid sax event stream. 3) JX Template generator is fine for simple cases but it lacks a lot of functionality i.e.: - control statements are very limited - you cannot plug in external tag implementations - jx:macro is good only for simple processing, you can do it only via a ugly "session hack" (${cocoon.session.wikifyFunction( "--string--", cocoon.consumer}), so it's very close to any extensions - you cannot set attribues via something similar to xsl:attribute as it is quite hard to implement (and might be inefficient) I would never be able to leave cocoon: - I cannot imaging my life without flowscript - cforms is the best implementation for form handling there is. period. but the view generation is what really bugs me.. If someone is interested I might try to implement freemarker integration as the comparison to velocity looks promising: http://freemarker.sourceforge.net/fmVsVel.html WDYT? -- Leszek Gawron firstname.lastname@example.com

The union Government appears to be hesitant in reining-in the pharmaceutical companies bribing doctors with foreign jaunts, expensive gifts and even cash to sell their drugs. During the previous government's tenure in 2011, a code on pharmaceutical marketing practices was announced, which never turned into a reality and this Government also had announced The Uniform Code of Pharmaceutical Marketing Practices (UCPMP) in January 2015, which the health activists apprehend would meet the same fate.
The code was to be made mandatory after six months. Instead, there have been four extensions, with the last one in September for an indefinite period.
Voluntary code was not working well
The code was drafted in consultation with all the stakeholders including the industry and was brought in on January 1, 2015. The Government announced that it was to be voluntary for six months, after which it was to be reviewed. In September 2015, the pharmaceuticals secretary admitted that government would make it compulsory as it was difficult to enforce as a voluntary code. In May and July this year, the minister informed Parliament that making code statutory would only help control unethical practices as the voluntary code was not working well.
Minister promised to make the code mandatory
Jan Swasthya Abhiyan (JSA), a national network of organisations working on public health had on July 29, this year, during a stakeholder meeting, submitted enough evidence of companies spending lakhs bribing doctors. In August, Tapan Sen, CPM Rajya Sabha member had giving instances of bribing by pharma companies in writing to the minister, Ananth Kumar, who had again promised that the code would be made mandatory soon. But it is still awaited.
Pressure from pharma lobby working?
"The government is stalling because of pressure from the pharma lobby. It was obvious right from the beginning that a voluntary code would not work. This is not the first time that the government has succumbed to pressure from the pharmaceutical industry ," said Amitava Guha of JSA.

What Is Sexsomnia?
What Is Sexsomnia?
Sexsomnia, also know as sleep sex, is exactly what is sounds like: sex acts that a person engages in unconsciously and involuntarily while sleeping. It's considered a variation of sleepwalking and happens outside of REM sleep, which would otherwise partially paralyze the body. Sexsomnia is often associated with shame and embarrassment, whether the sexsomniac, who rarely remembers what happens, initiates sex unconsciously with their partner or a stranger.
Sexsomnia has been used as a defense in sexual assault cases. Earlier this week a 43-year-old British man successfully pleaded sleep sex against a charge that he raped a 16-year-old girl. The jury believed that the man could not remember having sex with the teen, even though he spoke with her and walked downstairs to make put a kettle on the stove afterward. The girl was staying at his home and went to sleep in his room because she was not feeling well and his room was cooler. When she awoke the man was having sex with her. The next morning, he sent her a text message asking if they had sex.
Experts supported his claims by saying he had the symptoms and a history of a sexsomniac, but other sleep forensic experts say the care misrepresents sexsomnia. Skeptics explain that the fact that he went downstairs and engaged in complex tasks make it less likely he was sleeping the whole time.
Regardless of whether it can be invoked as a bogus defense, sexsomnia is treatable with an anti-anxiety drug. Have you ever come across this?

Career Development
The politics at Sony are vicious. Relationships prevail over expertise. Be very careful if you choose to work here. If you plan on developing a career, know that security depends on who you coffee with.
What I dislike about the company
Politics trump expertise. People are ambitious and steal from each other freely. This behavior is rewarded. Business that fail to perform are kept alive to sidestep the embarrassment of writing them off. These businesses eat other, more successful businesses. This feeds a brinksmanship mentality that puts business at risk and motivates people to eliminate each other.

Invalid integer error message in Stripe message.Asked by glosdigital on November 20, 2016 at 09:32 AM
Hi I have setup Stripe payment gateway on the link below but when I have tested it (first time trying) it shows the error: Invalid integer: 65.949999999999
Screenshot attached
JotForm Support
Hello glosdigital,
Since your form is a live form, I could not test it as it requires live credit card. I cloned your form and integrated wit my stripe account. It seems to work just fine and I was able to submit your form successfully. Please check the screenshot below:
I would suggest you to please embed your form using its iFrame embed code and see if that solves your problem. The following guide should help you how to grab your form's iFrame embed code: https://www.jotform.com/help/148-Getting-the-form-iFrame-code
Hope this helps.
Do get back to us if the issue persists.
Thank you!
Hi, I tried as an iframe but I got a a different integer error. I have changed the form to test mode on https://www.padstowfish.co.uk/christmas-hampers/
Maybe its something to do with it being embedded?
I also used the discount code TESTCOUPON to get 99% off, would that cause it?
JotForm Support
I sent a test submission to your form and used the TESTCOUPON as you suggested. I was able to replicate your issue. I received the invalid integer error after submitting the form.
It looks like the issue only occurs when I use the test coupon. When I didn't use a coupon on your form, I was able to submit it successfully.
It looks like the correct discount value is not being applied when I used the TESTCOUPON, and as such the error shows invalid integer.
Please allow me to do further tests on my test form and I will get back to you once I am done testing. Regards.
JotForm Support
After further tests on a cloned version of your form, I was able to confirm that the 99 percent discount rate was causing the invalid integer issue. Changing the discount rate to a lower value allowed me to submit the form without any errors.
Please try the same on your form and let us know if the issue still persists.
I will wait for your response. Regards.

When purchasing sunglasses
What are the most important things when it comes to buying sunglasses for yourself? Is it the look, the fit, the quality of the lenses or frames? We thought we would give you a few tips to hopefully help you make the right decision….
When you do purchase a new pair of sunglasses you need to be careful of what you are buying. Not only the quality of materials but also the way they are manufactured and finished. When choosing that all important fashion accessory, you should make sure of what will be protecting your precious eyes – check what the lenses are made from (hopefully not recycled materials) or cheap acrylic. Although this is not always easy to do, we do recommend you stay away from the "very cheap" rack sunglasses at the petrol station, dollar shop or corner deli, this way they won't have any potential effect on your vision. You may get lucky and find a perfectly good pair but you may also get a pair that will strain your eyes. Quite simply, Sunglass lenses or optical lenses should never be made from the scraps off the factory floor, so it's worth paying that little bit extra for the good stuff.
The clarity of sunglass and optical lenses comes from the material used in producing the lenses, also the way in which the lenses are manufactured. There are many different materials available and these materials will also help in defining the way you see the world through your favorite pair of sunglasses – Recycled plastic simply does not do the job for a sunglass lens, so try and make sure the lens is clear before purchasing and your eyes should not be strained.
Also, if you are worried about the darkness of a lens giving you higher UV protection, it is not the case. Even a clear lens can have 100% UV protection.
Fortunately with the advance in technology there are great optical and sunglass lens suppliers from all over the world like China, Japan, Korea, Italy and other European countries. It's becoming cheaper to get the quality lenses you are looking for, and that's good news for you.
Polycarbonate – High impact resistance, optically correct and well priced. Cannot be used in Acetate sunglasses due to a chemical reaction.
CR-39 – Used in optical lenses for it's clarity. Also very popular in Acetate sunglasses for it's clarity and chemical structure.
Nylon – Best lenses used for metal frames as they will not crack when drilled or screwed into a metal frame.
Glass – The most optically correct lenses on the market and scratch resistant but they are heavy and can break easily.
Acrylic – Cheap and nasty
Here is a great article on the importance of lenses - How to Choose lenses
The most common materials used in sunglasses these days seem to be poly-carbonate. (this is a material we will not use in our frames) This is mainly because of the explosion of the cheap rack sunglasses offered in nearly every store that sells pretty much anything. These generally range between $5 - $30. If you're paying more, then you should be getting a Grilamid frame. Poly-carbonate has an extremely high impact resistance but can easily crack so they generally don't last. This material is better used in sunglass lenses and optical lenses.
The other frame options and by all means the better way to go when buying eyewear is Grilamid (TR-90) - Cellulose Acetate or metal frames. Below is a brief on the Grilamid and Acetate material and the benefits they offer.
Grilamid (TR-90) – Nylon frames are very flexible and can be bent without going out of shape or breaking. These frames are lightweight and ideal for sport, fashion and even optical frames due to their strength and flexibility.
Cellulose Acetate – Is a petroleum free material made from a plant extract so it's better for the environment. These sunglasses have to be hand crafted because of their pliable nature. The long process involved in the production of an Acetate frame adds to the frames cost and gives the sunglasses a premium look and feel. This material costs a little more and it's a time consuming process for production but the real beauty of acetate cellulose is the color's this material offers. The only downside to acetate frames is they are a little heavier and can go out of shape with heat, or if they are placed in an un-natural position for too long. However, with a little heat they can be re-shaped back to their original shape.
So if they look good and protect your eyes it's worth paying that little extra. You do get what you pay for but you shouldn't have to pay too much, it's that simple.

I never played FFXI. I didn't want to get a credit card just for a mmorpg (why don't they take Discover?), I balked at the price tag to get in and the notion of a monthly fee, and the depth of the game when I looked at wikis was intimidating. And now it really seems too late to jump in and I read it's dreadful for soloing. I recently got my feet wet with Mabinogi, which is a nice little game with some good people, but I'm paying more than I would for FFXI and I'd really rather be playing a Final Fantasy game. FFXIV seems like a good place to get in, but I'm not sure what to expect.
Mabinogi is more of an action game with rpg elements, like a Legend of Zelda or Brave Fencer Musashi. The combat is largely about learning the pattern of actions to defeat monsters or reading theirs and countering appropriately. Unfortunately a lot of the game involves being perfect or the monsters kill you in one hit. Lag lately has caused me a great deal of frustration, and I'm not looking for more of that.
I read FF12 was supposed to be more like an online game in terms of how you play it. I really liked setting my characters' gambits and watching the results. I've read in FFXI you basically run up to enemies and automatically attack them, but manually throw in abilities as appropriate. That sounds similar, but I wanted to ask any of you who have played both how they compare.
I also liked the grind in games like Disgaea and was wondering if that made me a kook or in the right place.

|Re: false "recover files" messages
|Sat, 03 Mar 2012 07:05:32 GMT
Thanks Rory and Terry, et al.. Maybe I spoke too soon. I did encountered another strange problem when I opened an existing Writer file. Off and on I get this error message. "Runtime Error! "Program: C\ProgramFile\OpenOffice\soffice.bin "This application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way." (When I click 'OK' on the Error message,or close the message box, Open Office quits. ) After a few more tries. OO.o writer opens an "untitled" file instead of the existing file that I wanted, followed by it also (finally) opening the existing file that I originally chose. This happens only when I open a file from my Library, not when I open OpenOffice and go through the splash page. ) (BTW - I've used Open office for nearly three years prior to this and never had a problem. These problems turned up after an automatic update to 3.3. I uninstalled it and downloaded a new copy of 3.1 but I still keep getting all these errors. What's up with that? Thanks.

Occasionally my heart skips a beat (about a second or two). I don' t think it used to do this. I'm 70 years old in excellent health (low cholestral and no high blood pressure; never smoked and exercise 6 days a week).READ MORE
Why does the heart skip beats sometimes?
This question has not been answered by one of our experts yet.
I don't know.READ MORE
It's perfectly normal. If you're only just now experiencing this and you're 70 years old, you are in excellent health. It happens every day to millions of people, young and old (although it happens more often the older you get) because of stress, caffeine, emotions, or any other number of reasons. The name of this is premature ventricular contractions, which means that your heart gets the signal to beat again a tiny bit too soon and so it flubs up your rhythm. As long as it goes back to normal within a beat or two, it's like 90% you're perfectly fine. If you were younger I'd say don't even worry about it, but because you are 70 I'm going to say don't worry about it but go see a doctor if you find you can't forget about it, because on occasion, (very rarely) it can be a symptom of some underlying heart problem.READ MORE
I had a heart attack on July 3,2008 and I am worried about my diet. I am worried if I am eating Right or Wrong .READ MORE
I am 67 and mine does the same. I only noticed it while soaking in the bathtub. I had my ears in the water and I could hear the beats really well.

If it happens frequently, or continues for a prolonged period of time, see your doctor as soon as possible.

Passover Brownies
Recipe by Pot Scrubber
Submitted for the 'Zaar World Tour 2005. The marmalade and coffee sound like interesting ingredients to me.
Top Review by Aunt Cookie
These were very unusual and tasty. They are the fluffiest (for lack of a better word) brownies I've ever eaten...I guess you could say they have a souffle-like texture. I'll probably play around with the marmalade amount the next time I made these. I love orange and chocolate together, and the orange flavor is very subtle in this recipe. Thanks so much for posting!

or to let them know you want them to kiss you?. . .or do guys find it weird if the girl makes the 1st move?
Best way to get a guy to kiss you?
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 4
For me the answer is quite simple...just ask me! And no, I don't think it's weird if YOU make the first move! I would consider it an indication that you really want to get to know ME.00|00|0
Another good one is to hug him very closely and intimately, but instead of pulling away you put your face really close to his and look him in the eyes, that's a good queue for a guy to go in for a kiss, or you girl could do it, nothing wrong with that. It's not weird if the girl makes the 1st move, I actually consider it a turn on!00|00|0
tell you want to kiss him, but finding the balance between sounding sincere and sounding forward is one that even I'm not sure how to learn.00|00|0

- 16 inches of medium gauge wire
Place the wire between the dowels on the bow maker.
Place the ribbon in-between the dowels and twist it one full turn, leaving a few inches of the ribbon on the right side of the dowels.
Measure four inches of ribbon (on the left side of the bow maker) using the ruler on the bow maker. Fold the ribbon over itself at the four inch mark and place the folded over portion of the ribbon in between the dowels and twist it halfway to create the first loop for your ribbon!
Repeat the same measurement of four inches on the other side of the dowels, and fold the ribbon over at the four-inch mark, twisting it halfway once it goes into the dowels. Using this method, create eight loops on each side of the dowels for a total of 16.
Create a center loop for the bow by making a 2-inch loop on one side of the dowels.
Cross the wire over the ribbon and push it down tightly against the ribbon to secure the loops.
Make your bow look more fluffy and full. Starting with the bottom layers, separate the loops and fan them out by placing your hand inside of the loops and pulling them tightly before gently pulling the ribbon off of the bow maker.
Turn the bow over and twist the wire underneath it to fully secure the bow.

Thank you!

I was able to replicate the issue at my end. I see that there is an error 502 Bad gateway when the form is submitted. However, the submission is being displayed in the form submissions. But when I tried to submit the attaching a file, it is displaying the Thank you message correctly.
I have tried changing the upload field not to allow multiple files and tried submitting the form which worked fine. I have reverted the file upload to accept multiple files. The form seems to be working fine now since as I tried to submit it, the Thank you message is displayed without any issue.
Please check and let us know if the issue still persists at your end. We will be happy to assist.

This guy has had a long term relationship with a girl, but they split because he was not ready for commitment. This caused him to meet a new girl, be honest with her.
He believed that he could move on with the new girl since he thought everything was over with the first girl.
But she gave him hints that she still has feelings. So he got scared.. because he still has feelings for her, but developed feelings for the second girl to and is in a dilemma of whats the right thing to do. Be with the girl he's been with for 5 years, or pursue the new relationship.
What would you do? Any stories?
Have you ever chosen the "rebound"?

What Guys Said 1
He shouldn't because he isn't ready to move on yet. I got burned by someone once. Took me awhile to regain trust (Im not your run in the mill guy) I am at the point where if I do move on, Im ready. but I keep busy with my life so if it happens, it happens00|00|0
He believed there relationship was over. A girl he was going to marry. He wanted to move on with me, until she surprised him that she still waiting for a ring. I guess I have no chance. Part of me believes that when he thought he lost her the 1st time, he should of been scared and proposed then, not try and move on with me. I guess he wants to string her along till he's ready, wonder how long she'll wait. No hope for me:( Thanks for answering

Just a quick followup ... Paula came back from her holiday/wedding on Monday ... and was presented with her card (and wedding gift) today.
But ... she was instructed by Mary ... our resident Social Director ... to take her card home & share it with Sid ... open it together!
We all pitched in a few bucks to give them as a gift... although Paula specified no gifts ( having been together so long ... they didn't really need much) ... but you know ... we wanted to give them ... something!
I'm sure they will have had a great moment opening the card. All of our Best Wishes were there!

Paula's Card
Sharing the card we all sent Paula with our Best Wishes
This was the little "candy heart" display ... surrounding the poem.
The card folds out to three panels, and each is full of cutout hearts
on which each person can pen their message.

Carvin CTM100 Mods
The Carvin CTM100 is a clone of the Apex 460; like the 460, it is a wonderful platform for DIY modification. We have several mod options for this mic -- enough to transform the mic into a virtual AKG C12 clone.
#1: Capsule Replacement
The stock capsule in the CTM100 is an undersized K67 type, just as is found in nearly every inexpensive large-diaphragm condenser. Quality varies from one to the next, but all of them sound peaky and bright. This capsule is the biggest problem with the CTM100 -- or, said another way, the best and most effective mod for this mic is to replace this capsule.
Our best-selling replacement capsule for LDC tube mic mods is the RK-12, which is our version of the capsule in the vintage AKG C12 and Telefunken ElaM 251. It will make your mic sound bigger and more present, and will present fewer sonic anomalies at mix time due to its smoother frequency response.
Another great choice is our RK-47, which gives the mic a U47-ish vibe.
Click to see all of our large-diaphragm microphone capsule choices.
#2: Grille / Headbasket Replacement
Our C12-style grille for the CTM100 looks great and sounds great too; the 2-layer mesh is more acoustically transparent than the stock 3-layer tight-weave mesh.
Click for more info on our C12-style grille for the Carvin CTM-100.
#3: Fox 460 Circuit Mod Kit
The Fox 460 circuit mod kit is a comprehensive upgrade for the CTM100 (and other clones of the Alctron T11-A). The kit contains a 3rd-generation and significantly updated circuit mod, which replaces both of the mic's PCBs and 100% of the mic's electronic components. The kit also replaces the tube, the output transformer, and modifies the power supply.
To be sure, this is no simple "capacitor swap" or "tube swap," but a comprehensive overhaul of the mic's audio circuit. The modded mic delivers much higher output, lower noise, and lower distortion than the stock mic, and performance equivalent to commercial microphones costing over $1000.

A strong feature set for the entry price is one of the other major distinguishing characteristics of the 2010 Terrain from the Chevrolet Equinox. All models come standard with a rear-vision camera, USB connection, keyless entry, XM Radio with three-month trial subscription, two-way power driver's seat with lumbar control, and ambient lighting.
Though the 2010 GMC Terrain is, as Car and Driver notes, "roughly $1800 more expensive to start" than the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox, that money does result in a higher level of standard equipment, including fog lamps, tinted glass, a USB port, and a backup-camera display. Beyond the base differences, Jalopnik says, "[t]here's no equipment you can get on the Terrain that you can't get on the Equinox."
Optional upgrades include a touchscreen navigation/infotainment system with 40GB of storage, remote start, leather-wrapped steering wheel with integrated audio controls, Bluetooth connectivity, and a dual-screen 8-inch DVD rear-seat entertainment system. Despite the long list of standard features and affordable options, the price of the 2010 Terrain can push into the "upper-$30,000 range," says Car and Driver.
Car and Driver asserts that, on the whole, options are "quite reasonably priced." Edmunds agrees, noting that the 2010 Terrain "offers just about everything that shoppers in this segment are looking for."

Likhité, Sabine (2004) Journal writing as an essential component to my artistic practice. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
Text (application/pdf)2MB
MQ91067.pdf - Accepted Version
In an attempt to rekindle my artistic practice, I conducted a qualitative research project to see if an exploration and understanding of my journal writing could be used as a medium for growth and artistic advancement. The discovery of similar women artists' journals and the development of a body of assemblage sculpture also became ingredients in the evolution and understanding of my self as an artist and creative person.
