I just compiled and started Firefox 188.8.131.52 on HP-UX. as soon as I enter the first character into a field on a form or into the search box, the browser aborts. the URL address line seems to work ok.
this behaviour is clearly reproducable on my environment. I can easily do any extra tests if you need this for troubleshooting.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start firefox
2. enter one character into the search box
3. firefox disappears
I also see this on Sparc/Solaris, self-compiled Firefox 126.96.36.199 using GTK2 and XFT. Happens with fresh profile and safe mode. This bug was not present with Firefox 1.5 (same settings).
Trying to open Edit > Preferences results in a Bus Error, too. Again, this does not happen with Firefox 1.5.
Further investigation shows that Edit > Preferences > Privacy is the culprit, which happened to be selected the last time I used Firefox 1.5 (Preference tab selection is remembered).
Reporter, can you confirm that Firefox 184.108.40.206 also crashes on your platform in that case?
Also on HP-UX Firefox aborts when trying to open the Edit > Preferences > Privacy tab.
Can you work out which of the privacy tabs is the culprit ? Does it matter ?
This could be a 64-bit platform problem ?
There is nothing obvious to cause this in the unofficial changelog
but some of the security bugs are still closed.
(In reply to comment #5)
> Can you work out which of the privacy tabs is the culprit ? Does it matter ?
At least it doesn't seem to matter which is selected. But since this bug is also about crashing when typing into a form input field, maybe it's Saved Forms.
> This could be a 64-bit platform problem ?
Don't know, I'm not even sure I'm building 64-bit.
I'm currently building a debug build but it will take some hours.

As it seems, the problem is located in form history code.
*** Bug 334844 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Needs 2-byte terminating NULs when initializing strings this way. Probably better to init with an explicit length.

Can you guys experiencing the crash give this patch a try?

Can you change nativeByteOrder to be a reference type instead?
nsAutoString &nativeByteOrder(bigEndianByteOrder);
That way you avoid an additional string copy. r=darin

Patch, with nsAutoString&
approved for 1.8.0 branch, a=dveditz for drivers.
the patch fixed the issue on HP-UX.
Also confirming fixed for Sparc/Solaris (with the first patch, but I guess that's OK).
Fixed on MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH for 126.96.36.199
and MOZILLA_1_8_0_BRANCH for 1.8.1[a2]
Comment on attachment 219681 [details] [diff] [review]
Patch, with nsAutoString&
I made nativeByteOrder a non-reference on the 1.8.0 branch because it turned the 1.8.0 tinderbox red. VC98?
verified on 180 branch - patch was checked in on the branch, and win/linux/mac builds work.
The reference piece of this is causing Sunbird's Windows tinderbox to burn.
#build hasn't gotten that compiler upgraded, so we're backing out the reference on trunk (like was done on 1.8.0 and 1.8)

Yes, all right, I DO know there's a recession on. But this isn't just any old restaurant review. It's that special once-a-year occasion when I get to blow the Independent's budget on a spectacular dinner with the winning bidders in our annual charity auction, raising money for aid projects around the world. This year's highest bidder was Roger Hambury, who secretly bid for the lot as a Christmas present for his wife Fleur, knowing she had long harboured fantasies of becoming an undercover food critic.
I suggested Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley as our venue because it seemed a fairly safe bet we'd have a wonderful meal there. The super-talented Wareing is one of the brightest stars on the London restaurant scene, his reputation only burnished further since his acrimonious rupture with former mentor Gordon Ramsay.
The restaurant formerly known as Petrus is a dark, sober and rather manly affair – good qualities in a dinner date, but not necessarily in a dinner venue. The caption under the scene that greeted us could have read "Credit crunch? What credit crunch?" Every table was full, even on a Tuesday night. Fleur and Roger agreed with my initial impression that it was the kind of clientele among whom you wouldn't necessarily expect to bump into anyone you knew. Mind you, at that stage, we didn't even know each other.
Some champagne was needed to break the ice; but before we'd even had a chance to order apéritifs, we were bombarded with a flurry of amuse-bouches. Suddenly we found ourselves in full-on reviewing mode, before we'd even had a chance to exchange a few pleasantries. A faint memory of some not entirely appealing smoked tomato is all that remains of this opening stage of hostilities. I can only hope that Fleur was keeping fuller notes. Not until the next dish arrived, warm pumpkin soup sipped through a cold Parmesan foam, did social panic subside, and anticipation kick in; this wasn't so much a pre-starter as a jump-starter.
Fleur – a passionate foodie – had already scoped out the sample menu online and decided what she wanted to order. Roger, on the other hand, is a self-proclaimed "fussy eater" whose first reaction to the menu was, "It's a bit scary". Probably because each dish, in the modern style, tended to contain an unexpected interloper, like a flasher in a school photo.
Fleur's starter offered the classic combination of roasted scallop with puréed cauliflower, but with macadamia nuts and nasturtiums capering around, and a sauce in which Fourme d'Ambert cheese and white chocolate formed an unlikely alliance, the dish was pushed too far in the direction of sweetness. "I would have liked a bit more cheese and a little less chocolate," decided Fleur, who was throwing herself with relish into her new role.
Roger's ravioli of quail with ham hock and white truffle was a single pasta parcel filled with densely textured meat. He was enjoying it, until I suggested that the resistance of the filling was reminiscent of a pork pie. "Mmm, pork pie," Roger hummed, with the wistful, faraway look of a man who is obliged to eat in fancy restaurants rather more often than he would like.
My own veal sweetbread with Swiss chard and roasted celeriac was impeccable, a showcase for Wareing's serious, classically inspired technique. His style of cooking isn't particularly directional; there are no games or jokes. But neither is there a huge amount of personality in his food; we were enjoying the meal, but it wasn't quite hitting the expected heights.
So it continued with the main courses, and again it was Fleur – the evening's guest of honour – who was underwhelmed. Her Welsh suckling pig, slow-cooked for 24 hours, was a wonderful thing of melting softness and richness. But about the rest of the dish, Fleur was merciless. "The crackling, I could have done myself. And it's all just too dry."
Roger's lamb was disappointingly short on taste, and the accompanying caraway spatzle released a back-of-the-spice-drawer mustiness that unbalanced the dish. Fleur had a bite, then scribbled furiously in her notebook, shaking her head. I began to be a bit scared of her. She seemed to be morphing from lovely Independent reader into Wandsworth's answer to A A Gill.
As I was being formally introduced to my main course – each dish comes to table with the obligatory recital of its key ingredients – the waiter warned, "Be careful how you cut into the snail beignet – they can burst". Oh yes, they most certainly can. Luckily, the jet of garlic butter only hit Fleur's dress, rather than her décolletage, but it was a rather unfortunate episode for which I can only apologise. Other than that (Mrs Lincoln), it was a great dish though the addition of frog's legs didn't bring much to the party, apart from the chance of pushing Roger further out of his comfort zone by forcing him to taste one. "We've been married for 17 years, and he's never even tried my risotto!" marvelled Fleur.
We shared a single portion of cheese, and even though we hadn't exactly hidden the fact that we were writing a review, what with the two notebooks and all, the serving was so meagre we could have read our notes through each wafer-thin slice.
Still casting around for solid ground, Roger ended with a version of Eton Mess that was very far from messy – four raspberries bearing a sliver of meringue. "It's ... nice," was his damning verdict, although he shunned the iridescent puddle of basil-flavoured goo as an alien taste too far. Fleur and I were both more enthusiastic about our own desserts, including a chocolate moelleux whose preparation was described in impressive detail by our waiter.
Service is generally much less jumpy and intrusive than it can be in these high-end places, though Fleur had issues. You can read her account of our meal on our website (see independent.co.uk/food). It was a great evening, and even though the food didn't quite earn the hoped-for five-star rating, the company certainly did. Thank you Roger and Fleur, for your generosity. And Fleur, do please send me that dry-cleaning bill.

I had that problem earlier this year. I had a new card issued
immediately and canceled the old one. I kept getting calls from a
Western Union. Finally they gave up. I told them the card had been
canceled and that wasn't my card number anymore.

Something similar happened to me, but it did not happen on line, it
happened when I checked into a motel for a MG meeting several years
ago. One of their staff stole my information. I caught it when my bill
came, and did not lose any money, and had my card replaced, but had to
deal with six months of correspondence with the company from whom the
merchandise had fraudulently been purchased. (The only address they
had, was mine, and they wanted their money!)

VANCOUVER (AP) Michael Cammalleri thanked Jarome Iginla for his first career hat trick — and Curtis Glencross for making it worth celebrating.
Cammalleri scored three times — the last two on perfect passes from new linemate Iginla — and Glencross added the winner on a breakaway with 6:31 left in the Calgary Flames' 4-3 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday night.
GAME REPORT: Flames 4, Canucks 3
The win moved the Flames within three points of the Northwest Division-leading Canucks — with a chance to close the gap Saturday night in the rematch in Calgary.
"The best feeling about this is the win," said Cammalleri, who had 11 two-goal games. "Maybe we didn't say it out loud, but we were all thinking we need to win these two games to get back to where we want to be and you can't win them both if you don't win the first one."
Cammalleri's hat trick goal gave the Flames a 3-2 lead 1:18 into the third period, but Mason Raymond tied it with his first goal in 10 games on a 2-on-1 break on a delayed penalty, setting the stage for Glencross 2 minutes later.
Glencross intercepted Alex Edler's errant pass at the Vancouver blue line, skating in alone and beating Curtis Sanford with a high backhand shot
"The finish was impressive, to go to the backhand like that in that situation, game-winner, third period, on the road," Cammalleri said. "That goal says something about his play.
Darcy Hordichuk, with his first for Vancouver, and Daniel Sedin also scored for the Canucks, who lost in regulation for the first time in 11 games (8-1-2).
"We gave them a couple bang-bang plays that we haven't been giving up, but it would have been nice to make a couple saves for the guys there," said Sanford, who made 29 saves but lost for the first time in four games — the last three after star goalie Roberto Luongo hurt his groin last Saturday in Pittsburgh.
"We're going to have to make sure we bring a better game on Saturday."
Miikka Kiprusoff made 27 saves, and Iginla and Daymond Langkow each added two assists, as Calgary won for the fourth time in five games.
Cammalleri's first goal was also the 100th of his career, and it came on a good break — a power-play pass from the goal line that went in off defenseman Sami Salo's skate. His next two were perfect one-timers after nice passes from Iginla, who was moved onto a line with Cammalleri and Matthew Lombardi the last game.
"He can get (his shot) off quick," Iginla, who extended his point streak to five games (two goals, five assists) said about Cammalleri. "(Coach Mike Keenan) shifted the lines and as a group all our lines are looking better and developing chemistry."
None more than Iginla and Cammalleri, who got his second goal on a delayed penalty, snapping in Iginla's cross-ice feed before Sanford could get across his net to tie the game 2-2 with 2:59 left in the second period.
Cammalleri scored his third from the left faceoff circle, snapping a quick shot over Sanford's pad on the short side after Iginla's pass from behind the net.
"He's one of he best players in the world," Cammalleri said. "He draws so much attention and he showed tonight how underrated his passing is. That second goal was one of the best passes I've had ever. He's amazing to play with."
Kiprusoff was at his best shortly before Cammalleri's second goal, stopping Jannik Hansen on a breakaway and getting his blocker out to rob Mason Raymond at the end of consecutive power plays that included a 53-second 5-on-3. He also got some help when Daniel Sedin missed an empty net during the two-man advantage.
"That was one of the turning points," Canucks coach Alain Vigneault said. "We had an opportunity to make it 3-1 and our execution was off. They did a good job of killing that penalty. The good thing about this is we get an opportunity to get right back at it Saturday night. It's our first loss in quite some time."
Notes: Vancouver, which swept a home-and-home series with Calgary to start the season, plays its next seven games on the road. Both teams were missing two forwards from their previous wins. Calgary was without Dustin Boyd (shoulder) and Wayne Primeau (foot), while the Canucks were missing Steve Bernier (shoulder) and Ryan Johnson, who played six weeks with a broken foot before being sidelined by a broken finger. Johnson is expected to miss three to five weeks. ... Vancouver D Kevin Bieksa, who leads the defense in scoring and the team average ice time, returned just two weeks and six games after being diagnosed with a broken foot.

A unique Diploma for people wishing to work or already working in science related jobs and want to further their knowledge and understanding, to improve employability and further your professional career, or a stepping stone to higher qualifications.
This course is different to many others, because it goes well beyond just teaching you basic scientific knowledge. It is an "experiential based" learning program; designed to get you involved with a scientists, academics, technicians in a variety of science disciplines. This contact and networking with professionals in the field will provide the basis for ongoing success you need to become "connected" and remain "connected", so that you see and adapt to changes as your career moves forward.
You can direct your studies to your current area of expertise, or chose a new direction for yourself. You can also make your diploma as focused or as broad as you need it to be.
The Diploma qualification requires the completion of 20 modules, including Research I and II, plus 100 hr of industry meetings.
Group 1
Group 2
The course is an "experiential based" learning program that gets you involved with the "real world". Through practical tasks, research, observation and networking; you are guided to develop not only knowledge of science, but also "understanding", "awareness" and the right "attitude" that is needed to build either a sustainable career or business.
The course offers lots of opportunity for you to "specialize", choosing a combination of "electives" that give you a very unique mix of skills; for instance:
Employment Opportunities
Getting a job in today's world is determined not only by the sort of qualification you have, but also your personality, presentation, attitude, experience, interests, and ability to adapt to new challenges.
With an ACS qualification in Applied Science, you are better prepared to enter a science oriented workplace, learn faster on the job, and become a more useful employee within a shorter period of time.
There are in fact fewer jobs today (per capita) that require a degree than there were in the past. More people today are "self employed" than in the past. In some countries, 70% of all jobs are in self employment. This situation is being driven by scientific discovery and technological innovation.
Industry is changing faster than ever; and will continue to change; and
for ongoing success you need to become "connected" and remain
"connected", so that you see and adapt to recent changes, and ongoing
changes as your career moves forward.
What do Employers Think?
A qualification that has required hard work to attain will be an indication to an employer that you have a certain level of drive and commitment.
An understanding of the industry and discipline which the job encompasses will indicate that you are more likely to learn faster and become useful to the employer sooner. We design our courses with these things in mind.

Comic Timing – Discussing the Undiscussable

I'd like to discuss an aspect of comedy that I don't believe can be meaningfully discussed - timing. Like love, happiness, and sushi, comic timing defies analysis. There have been many attempts to define it, but most were futile. Years ago in their book, How to Be a Comedian for Fun and Profit, Harry King and Lee Lauger wrote, "Timing is knowing when to stop speaking in the midst of a routine in order to allow thinking time for the audience to prepare itself for the laugh that is coming up." Not much of a definition, but it is a great piece of advice. The only thing that's certain about comic timing is that it's esse

Netflix, of course, is the Internet's premier cinema hub that's powered by a vast but often uneven collection of instantly watchable films. For every The Piano Teacher, there's a Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead. The "Horror" section of Netflix's instant streaming library, though, is surprisingly top-notch. Frankly, trimming the numerous sub-categories down to the following list of The 25 Best Horror Movies Streaming on Netflix Right Now was quite the arduous mission, one that left several worthwhile films behind. You know what means, though? You're about to experience nothing but terrifying, first-class virtuosity.
You want tense thrillers? You got it. Gore galore? Done. Monster movies? Yeah, obviously. The indies, which end up being that much scarier because of their low-fi vibes? Again, yes. What we're trying to say is that Netflix is the only place you need to go to scare the shit out of yourself.
And after you binge-watch all the scary, terrifying, and disturbing movies on this list (or this list of the Best Horror Movies Every Year Since Psycho), laugh off your fear with the best comedy movies Netflix has to offer. If you have a special someone to cozy up with in front of your laptop screen, you might want to browse our list of the best romantic movies available on Netflix right now. Not feeling a specific genre? Just pick one of the overall best movies that are streaming on Netflix right now. Or if you're looking for a smaller (or greater, depending on how many episodes you watch) commitment, check out the top TV shows on Netflix right now. You can't go wrong with these selections. When you've un-glued yourself from your couch, you'll be thanking us.
This list is up to date as of October 28, 2016.
The Host (2006)
Director: Bong Joon-Ho
Stars: Kang-Ho Song, Hie-Bong Byeon, Hae-Il Park
Not to be confused with the 2013 U.S. film also named The Host, this sci-fi horror brings us to Seoul, Korea on the banks of the Han River. Snack bar owner Park Hee-bong lives along the bank with his family of two sons, a daughter and granddaughter. One day a monster emerges from the Han River, sparking hysteria in Seoul. The Korean Loch Ness monster, during its reign of terror, snatches up Park Hee-Bong's granddaughter.
The film goes beyond typical scares and uses the horror genre to present a political satire that portrays the South Korean government as bureaucratic, useless, and uncaring.
here comes the devil (2013)
Director: Adrián García Bogliano
Stars: Francisco Barreiro, Laura Caro, Alan Martinez, Michele Garcia
Argentina's own Adrián García Bogliano can't be put into any one kind of box within the horror genre. With each new film, the young writer-director totally shifts gears and challenges himself to subvert a common scary movie trope; in Here Comes the Devil, Bogliano tries his hand at the supernatural, telling an unsettling and unpredictable tale about two loving, though romantically fragile, parents struggling to figure out where their two young kids have been acting so oddly after returning from a mysterious cave.
Achieving a steady, overwhelming mood of dread from start to finish, Bogliano's latest twists and turns its way into a lane occupied by the most daring of horror movies, where familiar concepts and images never play out how one might expect and interesting, if not sometimes questionable, behind-the-camera choices show a director who's gamely open to risks.
stake land (2011)
Director: Jim Mickle
Stars: Nick Damici, Connor Paolo, Kelly McGillis, Danielle Harris, Sean Nelson, Michael Cerveris
The thought of yet another vampire project has lost its gusto. That's what happens when popular culture transforms the once-scary bloodsuckers into both sissy pin-ups who glisten and don't eat meat (see: Twilight) and sex-crazed citizens (see: True Blood). Going against such adversity, writer-director Jim Mickle, along with co-writer and star Nick Damici, charged right into the vamp genre with Stake Land, an independent mish-mash of 28 Days Later…, The Road, and 30 Days Of Night.
But Mickle and Damici figured out how to set their post-Dracula flick apart: by making the vampires unsociable killing machines that are actually secondary to rich character development. Damici, a worthy action hero for the IFC circuit, and fresh-faced Connor Paolo play a pair of grizzled survivors (which includes scream queen Danielle Harris) trudging through a post-apocalyptic wasteland full of supercharged vamps, Satanic cults, and gorgeous cinematography.
We Are What We Are
Director: Jim Mickle
Stars: Ambyr Childers, Julia Garner, Bill Sage, Michael Parks, Kelly McGillis, Wyatt Russell, Nick Damici, Jack Gore
Jim Mickle is more than ready for his close-up. Quietly, the independent writer-director is the horror genre's most gifted young talent, a compelling mix of Terrence Malick and a young Wes Craven. Although his films don't chump out on the gore and violence, Mickle's style of scary moviemaking is impressively elegant, putting heavy emphasis on characters, cinematography, and patient, human narratives. See his 2011 vampire flick Stake Land, or just go directly to his latest, the cannibal drama We Are What We Are, his best movie yet.
A remake of Mexican filmmaker Jorge Michel Grau's grim 2011 festival darling of the same name, Mickle's We Are What We Are is the rarest of genre re-imaginings, one that's much better than its predecessor and doesn't merely rehash what's already been done. Mickle and writing partner Nick Damici move the story flesh-eating family dynamic to rural upstate New York, centering on a God-fearing, subtly tyrannical patriarch (a menacing Bill Sage) and his two teenage daughters (Ambyr Childers and Julia Garner), both of whom want to drop their family's history of ritualistic cannibalism and live like normal kids. Daddy doesn't want that for them, unfortunately, and We Are What We Are shows the family's disintegration, one murder and intestine feast at a time.
It's a grisly, disturbing horror film that even the most uptight of snooty film critics has to appreciate. In time, Jim Mickle's name will be on all of their minds.
At the devil's door (2014)
Director: Nicholas McCarthy
Stars: Naya Rivera, Ashley Rickards, Catalina Sandino Moreno
At the Devil's Door gives Glee's Naya Rivera and MTV's Awkward's Ashley Rickards the opportunity to leave their high school antics behind for some old-fashioned Satanism.
Writer-director Nicholas McCarthy's three-narrative script is unusual. Rickards plays a young girl who, because she's sprung off a new boyfriend, haphazardly decides to sell her soul to the devil; Oscar nominee Catalina Sandino Moreno is Leigh, a real estate agent tasked whose latest must-sell home has quite a few horrific secrets, one of which reveals itself to her right away; and Rivera, meanwhile, is Moreno's younger sister, Vera, a free-spirited artist who has no desire to get domesticated, even though Leigh has specific reasons for wanting Vera to start a family.
Hovering over the three characters is, as the title suggests, Lucifer himself, and McCarthy doesn't hold anything back. The devil is seen throughout the film, accentuating At the Devil's Door's tense and bleak energy. It's a horror movie for people who don't like to laugh much. Basically, it's the anti-Glee. Fans of McKinley High's New Directions won't know what hit them.
The den (2014)
Director: Zachary Donohue
Stars: Melanie Papalia, David Schlachtenhaufen, Matt Riedy, Adam Shapiro, Anna Margaret Hollyman
Patience is a must while watching The Den, writer-director Zach Donahue's more-than-meets-the-eye exercise in found-footage horror. In its early sections, the film, about a grad student (an impressive Melanie Papalia) researching the user habits of a video-chat website, suffers from lazy online weirdo caricatures. Papalia's character gets bombarded by horny dudes looking to score, and it's all one-note and hindered by hammy performances. But The Den takes an unexpectedly dark and fucked-up turn for its third act, and that's when Donahue pulls off some of the creepiest first-person POV sequences in recent memory. The Den's bleakness and Internet-as-Hell theme accelerate as Papalia's situation worsens.
For its grand, unnerving finale alone, it's hugely deserving of a DVD/Blu-ray revival and a cult following of horror fans who like their scares aggressively unpleasant.
antichrist (2009)
Director: Lars von Trier
Stars: Willem Dafoe, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Storm Acheche Sahlstrøm
Say you're feeling miserable, right, and one of your buddies is always smiling and lighting with joy-you're looking to bring him down a peg, eh? Invite him over, flip open your laptop and consult Netflix for some Antichrist, yet another mega-downer from Danish polarizer Lars von Trier. The heartwarming tale of a married couple's descent into madness and graphic mutilation in the wake of their infant son's accidental death (which von Trier shows in slow motion, mind you), Antichrist is liable to make a Glee reject want to lock his or herself indoors for an extended period of time. At least they'll have done so after watching a beautifully shot and commendably fearless work of mean-spirited art.
The abcs of death (2013)
Directors: Kaare Andrews, Angela Bettis, Ernesto Diaz Espinosa, Jason Eisener, Bruno Forzani, Héléne Cattet, Adrián García Bogliano, Xavier Gens, Lee Hardcastle, Jorge Michel Grau, Noboru Iguchi, Thomas Malling, Anders Morgenthaler, Yoshihiro Nishimura, Banjong Pisathanakun, Simon Rumley, Marcel Sarmiento, Jon Schnepp, Srdjan Spasojevic, Timo Tjahjanto, Andrew Traucki, Nacho Vigalando, Jake West, Ti West, Ben Wheatley, Adam Wingard, Yudai Yamaguchi
Comprised of 26 directors each presenting a different means of life termination based on letters from the alphabet, The ABCs of Death boasts one of those concepts that sounds amazing in theory but has a high potential of turning into a clusterfuck in execution. But it comes with fervent, pleasant enthusiasm to report that The ABCs of Death is an absolute blast.
Granted, several segments are complete wastes of time, namely The House of the Devil filmmaker Ti West's disappointingly lazy "M is for Miscarriage" and Angela Bettis' "E is for Exterminate." The combined weakness of the film's lesser offerings is easily dismissible, however, when one takes into account the awesomeness of The ABCs of Death's high-points, from Deadgirl director Marcel Sarmiento's exceptional "D is for Dogfight," Ben Wheatley's (Kill List) intense first-person exercise "U is for Unearthed," and Jason Eisener's (Hobo With a Shotgun) demented and uncomfortably hilarious "Y is for Youngbuck."
Don't believe the negative hype that's been circulating around the film in recent weeks—though it's flawed, The ABCs of Death is, altogether, a giddily sick, nonstop shot of sadistic perversity to one's system.
The snowtown murders (2011)
Director: Justin Kurzel
Stars: Daniel Henshall, Lucas Pittaway, Louise Harris
Looking for a downer of the most visceral kind? Try Australian filmmaker Justin Kurzel's phenomenally bleak The Snowtown Murders, the "based on a true story" serial killer knockout about Aussie's most notorious homicidal maniac, John Bunting (a masterful Daniel Henshall). From 1992 through 1999, using his disarming charm and manipulative personality, Bunting infiltrated a practically destitute community and amassed a growing legion of followers to help him slay those he deemed as wrongdoers.
Cleverly, Kurzel and screenwriter Shaun Grant enter the hellish events through the eyes of a sympathetic teenager, Jamie (Lucas Pittaway); fatherless and lonely, Jamie yearns for a paternal connection, which, unfortunately, he finds in Bunting. How Jamie's life devolves into misery and bloodshed is what gives the unflinching Snowtown Murders the ability to have such a vice-like hold on your nerves, right down to the film's intensely grim final shot.
The babadook (2014)
Director: Jennifer Kent
Stars: Essie Davis, Noah Wiseman, Daniel Henshall
Storybooks and imaginary friends are pretty typical for any kid growing up. The Babadook takes both commonalities and turns them into a sinister, disturbing force in the lives of a recently widowed mother and son. The imaginary friend is turned into a boogeyman creature, and while the mother, played by Essie Davis, struggles to brace reality, the Babadook won't let her, leading the family into utter terror and turmoil.
The Australian film isn't another cheesy scary movie. It showcases real horror as it reaches into your childhood nightmares and brings them back to life onscreen.
Creep (2014)
Director: Patrick Brice
Stars: Patrick Brice, Mark Duplass
While found footage reigns supreme in horror (whether viewers like it or not), Creep defers from the hit or miss reputation of the style by actually being worth watching. A freelance videographer, played by Patrick Brice, takes on an assignment worth $1,000 for the day from Craigslist. Filming a terminally ill soon-to-be father for a day named Josef, played by Mark Duplass, seems easy enough. Except that Josef doesn't won't let him leave.
All aspects of the film from its rural mountain setting, Duplass's unsettling performance to the incredibly dark humor makes an aptly titled film one that pushes the viewer's limits.
honeymoon (2014)
Director: Leigh Janiak
Stars: Rose Leslie, Harry Treadaway
Rose Leslie is most known for her role on Game of Thrones where she utters the now famous line, "You know nothing Jon Snow." But in 2014 she appeared in Honeymoon, a horror film directed by Leigh Janiak and starring Harry Treadaway, who currently stars on Showtime's Victorian horror series, Penny Dreadful. Leslie and Treadaway play a newlywed couple who take their honeymoon in a middle-of-nowhere cabin—you know, always a good idea. Although things start off nice, Leslie's character Bea disappears one night and when she returns she isn't the same. The film, which works so well because of its two lead performances, is a terrifying feature that makes you wonder if you ever really know the person you promise to spend the rest of your life with.
A girl walks home alone at night (2014)
Director: Ana Lily Amirpour
Stars: Sheila Vand, Arash Arandi
One of the most innovative films from the past year was Ana Lily Amirpour's A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night, an Iranian vampire western noir. It's difficult to pinpoint exactly what type of film A Girl is (it plays with so many genres), but its horror sensibilities are undeniable. The film follows Arash, a kind and ambitious James Dean look-alike who lives in the barren Bad City. He's impoverished and his father is a heroin addict. Amirpour introduces the viewer to other members of the city: a creepy tattooed drug dealer, a young and too-curious boy, and an older, tired sex worker. Most importantly we are introduced to Girl, a young vampire who roams the streets of Bad City drinking the blood of the town's more despicable characters. It's really a story about Girl and Arash, and it probably would be more accurate to call A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night a horror romance than anything else. Still, with its sparse dialogue and moody backdrop, it's a pretty spooky film.
dark skies (2013)
Director: Scott Stewart
Stars: Keri Russell, Josh Hamilton, J.K. Simmons
Before she landed a lead role in FX's acclaimed The Americans, Keri Russell appeared in Dark Skies, a pretty freaky horror movie about weird things that start to happen to a regular family. The film follows the Barretts, a family of four that start to experience strange things inside and outside their home. It starts with break-ins, but soon birds are flying into their windows, the kids are waking up with bruises and brandings on their bodies, and, in a spectacularly creepy scene, Russell's character finds herself in a trance, smashing her head over and over again into a window. It's not exactly new territory, but Dark Sides manages to work because of its strong performances and truly bizarre scenes.
cropsey (2009)
Director: Barbara Brancaccio, Joshua Zeman
Stars: Barbara Brancaccio, Joshua Zeman, Bill Ellis
The documentary section of Netflix isn't where you normally look for a good horror flick, but Cropsey might get you to change your mind. Two filmmakers who grew up on Staten Island investigate the real-life abductions and murders behind the urban legend they grew up with.
As kids, Brancaccio and Zeman grew up hearing the tale of Cropsey, an escaped mental patient that abducted and murdered children. Sometimes he had a hook, other times he used an ax. If he found a child who had wandered too far into the woods after dark, he would kill them. The documentarians assumed that it was just an urban legend, until children began getting abducted one after another, their bodies found in the woods.
The decrepit abandoned mental asylums and spooky forests of Staten Island give Cropsey a scarier setting than most fictional horror films. Interviews with retired cops and TV news personalities combined with real footage of the search for abducted children won't let you forget that Cropsey is more than just an urban legend.
v/h/s/2 (2013)
Directors: Simon Barrett, Adam Wingard, Eduardo Sánchez, Gregg Hale, Timo Tjahjanto and Gareth Huw Evans, Jason Eisener
While the V/H/S entry was only mildly successful (critics complained that the shorts were uninteresting and that the whole product was a bit long), V/H/S/2 took on the first film's awesome idea and took it to a new, scarier level. The idea behind V/H/S/2 is pretty simple: get a bunch of talented indie directors—all horror buffs—collect some found footage, and create an anthology film with a couple of really spooky shorts. That's it. Simple and effective.
It could take too much time to go into the plots of each of the little films, but each contains some classic, horrifying horror elements. There's zombies, ghosts, a ton of gore (a man cuts out his own eye with a straight razor, aliens, and cult behavior. In that sense, V/H/S/2 really has a little bit of something to offer to everybody.
contracted (2013)
Director: Eric England
Stars: Najarra Townsend, Caroline Williams
Contracted is a tricky movie. First and foremost, it was advertised poorly, and critics criticized it for marketing a rape that occurred in an early scene as a "one night stand." Still, it has all right elements of a horror film, particularly in the way that it uses the genre to speak about serious moral issues.
Samantha, a young woman devastated after being broken up with by her girlfriend, heads to a party where her friends offer a ton of alcohol and drugs. She is then raped by BJ, a disgusting man who has had sex with a toxic corpse. In many ways, Samantha has become infected, and what seems to be just an STD morphs into something more sinister. While Contracted certainly has the opportunity to inspect the trauma that occurs when someone is raped, it never fully commits to this. Still, it does have some smart ideas and, at least on a surface level, is a pretty horrifying and disturbing film.
wes craven's new nightmare (1994)
Director: Wes Craven
Stars: Heather Langenkamp, Robert Englund
It's been almost a year since Wes Craven passed away, but Netflix, fortunately, has no intention on letting his legacy die. Great evidence of this is Wes Craven's New Nightmare, a metafilm that's sort of part of the Nightmare franchise, but still very much its own entity.
The film follows Heather Langenkamp (the actress from the original film) who has become pretty popular for her role. Things seem good for her and her family, her husband Chase and son Dylan, but, this doesn't last when they are soon haunted by Freddy Kruger, the iconic serial killer who kills people in their dreams, which causes them to die in real life as well. All of Craven's films are horrifying and fun, but what makes New Nightmare so wonderful is its self-awareness, its ability to take a close look at the genre and at the filmmaker's own work. As a result, what could have been another standard addition to the series, ended up being much more.
THE Cabinet of doctor CAligari (1920)
Director: Robert Wiene
Stars: Werner Krauss, Conrad Veidt, Fredrich Feher
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is widely considered the very first horror film, and the general aesthetic is indeed what you'd expect from a 1920s movie (it's silent, the acting is way overdone, and it's not exactly HD). But it's still totally worth it. The most striking and memorable aspect of the movie is the set design; it visually mirrors what the film wants you to feel. The weird sharp corners, tilted walls, and uneven lines all put you in unfamiliar territory, just as the insane Dr. Caligari, who deceives those around him to make his senseless murders more terrifying, should make you feel. But let it be known that this German Expressionist masterpiece is not only recommended if you're a writing an essay for your film class. It's a disturbing watch, even if it doesn't have an exorcism or a single zombie.
Hush (2016)
Director: Mike Flanagan
Stars: John Gallagher Jr., Kate Siegel, Michael Trucco, Samantha Sloyan
We should know by now not to leave vulnerable women in secluded houses by themselves when there are weird masked killers around, and yet, alas! Hush proves we have yet to learn our lesson. The twist this time is that Maddie, our heroine, is deaf and mute. This unexpected twist adds another element of horror to her killer, who, when he discovers it, finds many ways to torture her at the expense of her disability. The film isn't all silent, but the ambient sounds—especially Maddie's heavy breathing—make for some strong suspense. Mike Flanagan, who also directed Oculus, holds back on typical scare tactics, refreshing the familiar home invasion trope. If none of this is enough to tempt you, it's got Stephen King's seal of approval, so you know for sure it's going to mess with your head.
The Fly (1958)
Director: Kurt Neuman
Stars: Vincent Price, Patricia Owens, Al Hedison, Herbert Marshall
The Fly's classic '50s movie aesthetic—the blonde in a dress, the serene family life, those weird semi English accents everyone had—is injected with some ingenious sci-fi twists when a demented science experiment goes very, very wrong. Trust me, the movie is really not as dated as you might think. The Kafka-esque horror of turning into an insect might be more cerebral than, say, a demon terrorizing your life, and it's true that The Fly doesn't burn quite as quickly as some other films on this list. You might not scream for your life or really believe in that fly costume, but when you go to bed later that night, think about how insane that scientist had to be to do what he does. Allowing a little leniency here and there in terms of the science, is the premise of the film really that implausible? The true horror is that humanity is capable of some sick things.
They Look like people (2015)
Director: Perry Blackshear
Stars: MacLeod Andrews, Evan Dumouchel, Margaret Ying Drake
This gripping psychological thriller is able to bring the horror genre down to Earth by exploring human themes of mental illness and insecurity. Through character development, the film creates an emotional rawness that is not only rare in horror movies but also creates a deeply unsettling vibe as it juxtaposes "normal" life (work, gym, romance) next to demonic, apocalyptic terror. This is director Perry Blackshear's first film, and the attention he pays to his characters coupled with his ability to create powerful suspense bodes well for the future of the genre. The film premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, and it won a special jury prize, proving that horror films dedicated to strong character development have a real niche in today's film world.
Event Horizon (1997)
Director: Paul W. S. Anderson
Stars: Laurence Fishburne, Sam Neill, Kathleen Quinlan
When Event Horizon was first released, it totally bombed, but, following in the footsteps of Bladerunner, it's sort of had a moment recently. Set in 2047, it follows a crew sent out to Neptune to investigate the strange disappearance of the spaceship Event Horizon, but there's no Matt Damon space potatoes to cheer up this rescue mission. Inevitably, things go wrong and the rescue crew begins to learn the true, terrifying reason the original mission failed. The film burrows in your brain the way sci-fi always intended: otherworldly, inhuman forces will terrorize you and those you love for reasons you could never understand. Just don't watch it expecting accurate, airtight physics.
Pontypool (2008)
Director: Bruce McDonald
Stars: Stephen McHattie, Lisa Houle, Georgina Reilly, Hrant Alianak
Pontypool is the kind of movie that if you think about it too hard, you're doing it wrong. The basic storyline involves a radio host in the small Canadian town of Pontypool and a zombie-like infection that spreads via language. It's a bit ridiculous, of course, but at least it's original and not another home invasion horror movie. McDonald succeeds in crafting suspense despite a very limited setting (almost the entire movie is shot inside the radio station). Zombies and gore aside, the movie also gestures toward making a significant point about the superficiality and necessity of the English language as it refers to journalism—how much control do journalists have with their words, and just how destructive can those words be?
The Invitation (2015)
Director: Karyn Kusama
Stars: Logan Marshall-Green, Tammy Blanchard, Michiel Huisman, Emayatzy Corinealdi
On the surface, The Invitation is another one of those "dinner party from hell" movies. Will (Logan Marshall-Green) attends a dinner party at his ex-wife's swanky house with his new girlfriend—that could be a horror movie on its own, but there are much more sinister things afoot. The predictable set-up is tempered with a surprisingly expertly crafted dark, mysterious mood. You feel something will go horribly wrong, and there's just enough information dangled in front of you to keep you on edge, but not quite enough for you to predict a single damn thing. Moreover, the film dives deep into Will's backstory—he is deeply struggling with the loss of his son—adding a paranoid element to an already mysterious movie, which is a great move. At times, you're not sure whether you should be scared at all. Which is exactly when you should be running for the hills.

A California federal district court held that companies may owe a duty of care to their prospective contractor's employees in the hiring of such contractors. In Carrillo v. Schneider Logistics, Inc., plaintiff Everardo Carrillo and others were workers at three California warehouses that Walmart owned or leased, but were actually operated by Walmart contractors. Plaintiffs sued both the contractor-employers and Walmart, alleging the contractor-employers failed to pay them wages (including overtime) in violation of state and federal law and that Walmart was responsible, among other reasons, because it negligently hired the contractor-employers.
According to plaintiffs, "Walmart knew or should have known that each [contractor-employer] had a track record of violating state and federal employment laws, and Walmart's agreement with [these contractor-employers] created economic pressure to violate these laws." Walmart engaged the contractor-employers and then allegedly failed to implement procedures to ensure legal compliance and turned "a willful blind eye to rampant violations." Specifically, plaintiffs claimed it was not reasonably possible for the contractor-employers to meet the productivity requirements and labor cost goals set by Walmart's contract while complying with the law and maintaining a profit. Walmart moved to dismiss, but the federal district court rejected Walmart's arguments and found plaintiffs' allegations sufficient — at least at the pleading stage — to support a duty of care between Walmart and the employees of its contractors.
The negligent hiring claim is particularly important to note because it provides a separate theory under which one company may be held accountable for the actions of another, in addition (or in the alternative) to joint employer liability. Typically, employees will claim that two distinct companies are, in fact, a single enterprise or joint employers such that both companies may be held liable for the actions of either company. Here, the negligent hiring claim purports to extend wage and hour liabilities one step further because, even if Walmart is found not to be an employer under typical theories, it may still be held liable for the wage and hour violations of its contractors if the plaintiffs prove it was negligent in hiring those contractors. It remains to be seen whether plaintiffs will be successful in proving up the theory or, if appealed, whether the theory will stand.
In the interim, companies should be mindful that at least one court recognized a potential duty of care in hiring contractors, and California Labor Code Section 2810(a) specifically prohibits companies from entering into an agreement for certain labor or services (such as janitorial or security services) where the company has reason to know the agreement will not provide sufficient funds to allow the contractor to comply with applicable law.

SheTaxi is a 'should-free' zone that cares about your inner-self and not your 'stuff' (what kind of car you drive, how big your house is, what size you wear). We care about YOU and driving YOU forward in YOUR life. At SheTaxi, we believe in:
- opening your mind,
- caring for your body,
- nurturing yourself, and
- being real and authentic.
When you learn to take better care of yourself, the well-being follows. Hop in!
Peggy Paul, Founder
Peggy Paul created SheTaxi to have a place for women to simply 'feel better.' She spent years trying to learn from professionals on how to boost her self-esteem, reduce her depression/anxiety, lose weight and live to her fullest potential. What she realized is the people she was learning from had never been "in her shoes." While they were educated and certified, they never seemed to struggle with a lot of the issues of why Peggy was seeking their help. After a lot of soul-searching, Peggy decided she was going to focus on what really mattered – her inner self.
The Road to Well-Being is Peggy's journey to live a healthier, happier and more prosperous life. What she found amazing was that once she stopped focusing on 'the shoulds' and the surface programs and values, she started to thrive.
It didn't happen overnight. Each day provided its usual challenge of choosing to do what's best, rather than, what felt good, but isn't necessarily good for you. Peggy always says, "I was really good at not taking care of myself."
Peggy learned how to walk by a mirror without criticizing her weight, wrinkles, hair, etc., as she had done for many years. She began to care less about what people thought of her and care more about living an authentic life.
After taking a realistic and holistic (mind, body and spirit) approach to well-being, and literally 'feeling better,' Peggy wanted to share her approach with other women, in hopes they can feel good too. "We" live in a superficial culture that allows very little space for women to accept themselves as they are. This impacts your entire well-being. It sounds cliche, but its quite simple, when you feel good on the inside, the well-being follows.
As a result of the Road to Well-Being, Peggy reduced her anxiety, boosted her spirits, lost 60 pounds, improved her stress management and began to thrive overall. The Road to Well-Being is Peggy's journey to live a more healthier, happier and prosperous life.
Currently Peggy is the Senior Director of Community Health at the American Heart Association. She is grateful to work for a leading health organization that values the wellness of their employees and community.

Michele Gorny
Michele always knew she wanted to study health and the human body, and after earning her B.S. in health psychology, she received her massage certification in 1999 at the age of 22. Realizing this was only a small part of being healthy, she went on to get her A.C.E. and N.S.C.A personal training certifications.
After a few years of personal training, Michele could see (and feel for herself) the magic of weight training. One day, Michele decided to try one of those yoga classes offered at the gym where she trained. She immediately fell in love with the gentle way yoga challenges the body and still builds strength. Soon after that came pilates, and Michele felt herself be more flexible and stronger than ever before, being able to keep up with her heavy work schedule. Before long, she was teaching 5 classes a week.
Her massage business was growing fast, so she decided to take that leap of faith and start her own massage business. She started doing house calls, taking her table to clients' houses all over the Twin Cities. Then having developed sciatica from carrying her massage table, she settled her practice in Burnsville and has been there for the last 6 years.
There was one area left that Michele had always wanted to incorporate, and that was nutrition. In 2008, she received her certification to teach nutrition classes through Nutrition Weight and Wellness. She believes in practicing what she preaches, and when she applied what she learned to her own eating habits, her migraines went away as well as all the aches and pains she had attributed to doing massage.
While building her career, Michele has gotten married and now has a 2 year old daughter. She now works part-time doing massage and teaching yoga and pilates. She also leads nutrition classes. She loves helping people discover how healthy one can be when all areas are equally addressed: mind, body, and spirit.

Resting state functional connectivity (RSFC) analysis is a novel approach for mapping functional brain organization that promises integration of the cognitive sciences with clinical neurology. The discovery that functionally-related brain regions have correlated spontaneous neural and hemodynamic activity in absence of tasks means that brain networks can be studied even in patients with severe brain- injury, including unconscious, anesthetized, or very young patients. In addition to being task-less, functional connectivity Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fcMRI) is also efficient in time, mapping the entire brain in as little as several minutes. As these functional connectivity methods advance, a gap continues to grow between the non- invasive functional brain mapping methodologies used in humans and the invasive molecular and genetic methodologies commonly used in mouse models of disease. An efficient functional connectivity method applicable in the mouse could provide a critical link between human evaluation of disease and mouse studies of disease mechanisms and therapies. While fMRI has been extended to some animal models (primates and to a lesser extent rats), thus far fcMRI remains elusive in the mouse due to stringent demands in resolution and signal-to-noise. Recently the RSFC methods have been extended to optical technology with functional connectivity diffuse optical tomography (fcDOT) demonstrated in humans. An advantage for mouse imaging is that optical methods readily scale to smaller volumes. In this grant we will extend fcDOT to the mouse - developing both a high-performance mouse specific DOT instrument and complementary imaging algorithms. The small size of the mouse brain provides an opportunity for DOT methods to far exceed the relative image quality of that obtained in humans. Leveraging this opportunity requires a new design approach. We propose using multiple camera views combined with structured illumination to increase the speed of camera based DOT by >100x. Functional connectivity methods, including correlation analysis and cortical parcellation will be developed and established in mouse models using genetic, behavioral and surgical manipulations of functional connectivity, and validation against stimulated responses and histology. To test fcDOT in a brain injury model, we will examine ischemic stroke. Recent fcMRI studies in ischemic stroke patients have demonstrated that bilateral homotopic connectivity, measured within 2 weeks after stroke, was a predictor of long-term recovery. We will serially measure bilateral connectivity in mice in a model of stroke recovery using fcDOT. Mice strains genetically lacking contralateral connectivity will be used to determine if transcallosal connectivity directly influences post-stroke recovery. The mouse fcDOT developed in this grant will enable new paradigms linking human neuroscience to genetic mouse models.
Functional connectivity analysis in humans is a novel approach to mapping the functional organization of the brain organization that promises integration of the cognitive sciences with clinical neurology. An efficient functional connectivity method applicable in the mouse could provide a critical link between evaluations in human and mouse studies of disease mechanisms and therapies. This grant will develop non-invasive optical imaging technology and functional connectivity analysis methods for broad application in studies of neurological diseases, and establish the feasibility of the methods in a model of stroke recovery.

Java Test Cases
- Status Closed
- Budget $30 - $250 USD
- Total Bids 20
Project Description
The following is a specification for a software unit. The unit computes the average of 25 floating point numbers that lie on or between bounding values which are positive values from 1.0 (lowest allowed boundary value) to 5000.0 (highest allowed boundary value). The bounding values and the numbers to average are inputs to the unit. The upper bound must be greater than the lower bound. If an invalid set of values is input for the boundaries an error message appears and the user is reprompted. If the boundary values are valid the unit computes the sum and the average of the numbers on and within the bounds. The average and sum are output by the unit, as well as the total number of inputs that lie within the boundaries.
Derive a set of equivalence classes for the averaging unit using the specification, and complement the classes using boundary value analysis. Be sure to identify valid and invalid classes. Design a set of test cases for the unit using your equivalence classes and boundary values. For each test case, specify the equivalence classes covered, input values, expected outputs, and test case identifier. Show in tabular form that you have covered all the classes and boundaries. Implement this module in Java. Run the module with your test cases and record the actual outputs.Get free quotes for a project like this

The company we represent is a dependency of the International Colombian Emerald Museum shown Colombian Emeralds at fairs in Hong Kong, China, Tucson, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, France, Italy, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Spain and several cities in the United States. Of course, it also has been present in the most important cultural fairs in Colombia, where foreigners and natives had the pleasure of learning more about the culture of the emerald.
The International Colombian Emerald Museum has provided resources, efforts and logistics to the Colombian society, created more than 30 direct and 60 indirect jobs.
The company has led campaigns against child labor, sponsored the Afro-Ethnic Election, has been allies of all educational institutions who want to teach about the world of emerald and in art and beauty. Art exhibitions also publicize new talent and we are proud of our team and collaborators.
We have been decorated and recognized by public and private entities that have rewarded us
for our achievements in promoting the Colombian emerald and Colombian emerald jewelry design.
In 2010 we had the opportunity to be shanghai expo representing the our products and our country. Returning, our president was awarded by the House of Representatives with the Knight's Cross.
How a German is related to the founder of the Museum. Read here.
Thirty years ago we started in the Emerald business. Since then we have acquired experience in handling the relation between you, the customer and the manufacturer. We know your needs and know the manufacturer's capabilities; we pair your interests with his potentials.
As an outsourcing extension of the most prestigious Colombian emerald producer who has made Colombian emeralds the most famous in the world, we establish customers' needs and explain and demonstrate the products, quote and negotiate prices and terms.
We are conveniently located in the Caribbean, just between Colombia and the rest of the world at a very strategic point for several reasons. We have access to certified emeralds like very few on the international market place. We offer jewelry and cut stones of the highest standards of quality made with traditional and modern techniques. The Colombian emeralds we handle all originate from Boyacá, where best quality is found, are cut and hand-carved by the best experts, who draw the highest qualities of each gem.
All our emeralds are duly certified, 100% Colombian emeralds from the region of Boyaca and hand cut with high quality raw materials. Therefore we can guarantee a product for lifetime, which will always look at its best. Among the products we offer, you will find emeralds cut in different traditional and moderna forms, like cabochons, beads, mills, hand-carved traditional emerald carvings and /or commercial parts, also available for sale as emerald jewelry (rings, rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets and many more). Besides this design and elaborate exclusive emerald jewelry only for you.
Making the best of each gem is painstaking work, starting from the mine to the hands of a skilled craftsman who places the perfect emerald into the right setting. But without any doubt, it is the cutter who with his years of skill and expertise finds a perfect form for the right stone. He decides how to stage every emerald by its brightness, life, color, shape and size. One of our missions is to preserve the craftsmanship of producing the perfect jewelry, characterized by its pre-Columbian influences with a knowledge passed down for generations.

Welcome to the official website of the South West Chapter of Widows Sons, the Masonic Bikers Association in the South West region of the United Kingdom.
The main charity we support is Ambers Angels Trust, a new organisation based in Plymouth. They provide a range of valuable services for adult and children survivors of sexual abuse. They receive no government funding, yet have set up a drop in centre that provides counselling and respite care. They celebrated the 1st Anniversary of their unit being open in May this year, and we were there to join in the celebration. It is the first and only drop in centre in the whole of the UK for survivors of sexual abuse.
Since starting to support Amber's Angels, we have donated over £4,000 to the charity.
We are delighted that they go from strength to strength, and wish them every success as they relocate and move into larger premises this autumn.
This June, we escorted two maids to the school prom held at Tregenna Castle, St Ives. As well as many thanks, and miles of smiles, they gave us a donation towards the charities that we support.
Also in June we joined our brothers from the South East Chapter on the Cornwall and Devon section of their 12 Provinces in 24 Hours challenge to raise money for Lifelites charity.
Last year we were sad to annouce the passing of our Vice President, W. Bro. Rob Walls. Our memorial page to him can be found here.
We also supported the Moorlanders MCC Egg Run on Easter Sunday, 27th March, and assisted in the safe and efficient marshalling of the ride. Thanks to donations from several Lodges, we were able to contribute £3,500 raised for local children's charities.
Well done all!
