yes, if I could.
I do wish Khristine would check her pronunciation on some words. She consistently mispronounces Heraldic. Its not Herald-ick, its Hair-all-dick. Other than that, she has a very pleasant voice and good pacing.

Update. Got a reply back from Frys after they resubmitted my 2 rejected rebates:
Subject: $50.00 Norton Rebate Inquiry
Dear valued Frys.com customer,
In order to ensure that we can assist you to the fullest extent, a legible
photo copy of the UPC barcode is required to proceed. Please respond to
this email with the attachment of the photo copy.
Thank you.
Desiree Field
CS/Rebate Inquiries
mine changed to approved - took 2 weeks from the Frys email
And Symantec added these terms to their latest newegg rebate:
"Symantec reserves the right to deny rebate requests if excessive requests are submitted per customer or household or if other factors indicate a violation of these terms and conditions."
IMO a fraudulent statement as they don't define excessive.
Symantec's response to BBB Complaint:
On February 22, 2013, the business provided the following information:
We apologize for any inconvenience. However, Mr. XXX's most recent rebate requests did not pass our audit process. They were denied because we have received excessive submissions from him or his household for Norton products, suggesting that these products are being auctioned or resold in violation of the rebate terms and conditions. We have received XXX+ submissions since May of 2010 under his name alone. In addition, we were unable to locate any current Norton subscriptions under his name or email address, only serving to substantiate our initial conclusion. If Mr. XXX believes we have reached that conclusion in error, he should call the Rebate Fulfillment tam at 1-866-206-8800 to review his submission history.
My response to them:
I purchased the Norton software to give away to friends and families and donations to charities. Sometimes I buy the free after rebates item to accrue credit card points for rewards. I even use some of the CDs as coasters.
1) The rebate terms does not say the user needs to activate the software in order to get the rebate. If you need me to activate the software with my name and email address, you need to say so on the rebate terms.
2) The rebate terms does not mention anything about excessive submissions. It does now in the recent rebate forms but not in the past. Symantec "just" added this to their rebate forms. Does that tell you something? Also, Symantec does not define "excessive" in their new form either. How many is excessive? You are not telling consumers how many YOU think is excessive.
3) Symantec's finding "suggests" the products are auctioned or resold. They came to that conclusion without any actual evidence. That is the same as making up an excuse without backing to deny the rebates.
Last edited by ll412; 02-26-2013 at 01:50 PM..
Wow! They have now started tracking the subscriptions to see if you ever truly use their products.
Everyone who was affected should file a complaint with their Attorney General at the same time as pursuing other avenues to get the rebate. If enough people do it for their state, the AG will take notice. My previous experience with the AG has been good and got things resolved as it requires a response from the corporation and is of more serious nature than a BBB complaint. In many cases I had, just the threat of forwarding all correspondence to the AG resolves the issue. You can also file a complaint to the AG in the state Symantec is located which is California for those not in California in addition to your state.
I just chatted with the rebate processor regarding the new terms in the newegg offer. In summary he said he cannot define excessive and that a system has parameters set that he doesn't know. At the end he said if I would want the risk I could submit it. So now Symantec rebates are equivalent to gambling. I should have asked what the odds are of getting my rebate.
Here are the important parts:
2013-02-26 17:26:40 nyknicks8 Then what does this statement mean: "Symantec reserves the right to deny rebate requests if excessive requests are submitted per customer..."?
2013-02-26 17:27:09 nyknicks8 I do not want to buy a product whose rebate will be denied.
2013-02-26 17:31:21 Eric what that means is that if there is if you have an excessive amount of rebates in our system, it is possible that Symantec may start declining the submissions.
2013-02-26 17:31:58 nyknicks8 So how many is excessive? I have been buying Symantec products for a long time for many of our computers.
2013-02-26 17:33:15 Eric How many rebates do you process under your name and address per year?
2013-02-26 17:33:55 nyknicks8 I do not know. I'll have to check my records. But how many is excessive?
2013-02-26 17:34:24 Eric I do not have a specific number nyknicks8.
2013-02-26 17:34:47 Eric I understand excessive is subjective.
2013-02-26 17:39:12 Eric I have seen customers with 100 rebates per year.
2013-02-26 17:39:19 Eric That to me seems excessive.
2013-02-26 17:39:31 Eric I have seen customers with 10 rebates per year.
2013-02-26 17:39:42 Eric That to me does not seem excessive.
2013-02-26 17:40:16 Eric I was asking for the total that you plan to submit, so that I may provide a more logical estimate.
2013-02-26 17:40:46 Eric However, I am sure that you can come to a specific definition of what excessive means to you.
2013-02-26 17:41:07 Eric As long as you don't send too many rebates, you will be okay.
2013-02-26 17:45:07 Eric I am sorry nyknicks8, I do not have a specific number. I have provided all the information available. If you would like to take the risk, you may certainly submit for the rebates.
2013-02-26 17:45:58 nyknicks8 Ok I appreciate your honesty. I never thought submitting rebates is a risk, but now I know better. I will avoid Norton products and tell my friends to until they specify their criteria more clearly.

Though decisions are made on a company-by-company basis, Savannah residents may be able to get a discount on home and property insurance premiums based on a new ranking effective Monday.
Savannah-Chatham police are getting some added manpower from the state in their fight against violence.
Police are looking for a 20-year-old man after a 6-year-old girl was injured in a shooting Thursday morning just east of downtown Savannah.
The fatal shooting of a 2-year-old girl in her family's apartment Tuesday night along with other recent violence led Savannah's new police chief on Wednesday to ask state and federal police for more help fighting crime.
Downtown Savannah doesn't suffer from a lack of places to eat. Or drink. It might even take a newcomer a while to try all the hot spots.
Police say an 82-year-old woman who was hospitalized Friday afternoon after they initiated an investigation into alleged elder abuse was on life support Saturday.
Police say four people were shot in separate incidents Saturday in Savannah, one of them fatally.
Savannah-Chatham police say one man was taken to a hospital Friday night after being shot at a gas station on Savannah's westside.
Police say three people face criminal charges after officers found an 82-year-old woman with body sores and open wounds inside a Garden City home on Friday.
Narcotics agents arrested four people Thursday night in a bust targeting drug sales and prostitution at a southside Savannah hotel.

The Muppets Super Bowl Ad With Terry Crews is Delightful (and Weird)
Few people are as welcome on our televisions as Terry Crews and few felt creatures warm our hearts quite like the Muppets. In other words, if you want to sell us a Toyota, there are far worse spokespeople (and spokespuppets) to use. In the grand tradition of modern Super Bowl ads, the presumably very expensive spot starring these guys is online in advance of the big game, giving everyone who doesn't watch football a chance to remember how much they like the Muppets and that really funny guy who used to play sports-ball once upon a time.
And, of course, a chance to BUY TOYOTA BUY TOYOTA BUY TOYOTA.
'Choose Your Own Adventure' Movie Nabs a Director and Writing Duo
We've known about the 'Choose Your Own Adventure' movie for a while now, but we still have no idea what the heck this movie is going to be about. How do you adapt a series of completely unconnected interactive kids' books for the big screen? That's the big question, and, as of this moment, it remains unanswered. However, the film has hired writers and a director, whose past works give us a glimpse of the tone we can expect from the project.
Vin Diesel Announces 'Riddick' Sequel By Dancing to Beyonce For Seven Minutes
Post by Vin Diesel.
'Riddick' was a low-budget production made entirely from passion and duct tape, but it ended up being one the more pleasant surprises of 2013, performing well at the box office and satisfying all the fans who were let down by 'The Chronicles of Riddick.' Now that the 'Riddick' DVD is selling well, Universal is looking to develop a fourth entry in the series. That's the basic gist of the news. However, since franchise star/mastermind Vin Diesel is a certified weirdo (albeit, the lovable and awesome kind), the official announcement is significantly stranger than you'd think.
Super Bowl Ad Unites Your Favorite British Movie Villains
"Have you ever noticed how in Hollywood movies, all the villains are played by Brits?"
'Pitch Perfect 2′ Lands Newbie Director Elizabeth Banks
Despite its seemingly low-key release, 2012's 'Pitch Perfect' was one of the year's biggest surprise hits and most pleasant surprises, grossing $115 million worldwide and winning over even the most cynical of audiences. A sequel was a no brainer, but we've already been thrown a curveball -- original director Jason Moore will not be back and will be replaced by producer and star Elizabeth Banks, making her directorial debut.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Ride Along' Leaves 'I, Frankenstein' Choking on Exhaust
Ah, a week at the box office where the new release flies completely under the radar and everything else feels like it's just hanging out because there's nothing else to push it off the charts. Welcome to January. Welcome to the home of movies like 'I Frankenstein,' which was dead on arrival this weekend and will vanish into dollar theaters within the next week or so.
'Fast and Furious' Director Justin Lin to Tackle 'The Battered Bastards of Baseball'
Before he went on to direct four entries in the lovably ludicrous 'Fast and Furious' series, Justin Lin was known for his small, personal film, 'Better Luck Tomorrow' (and, uh, 'Annapolis'). The latest project on his plate looks like it could be a return to the smaller, more character-driven films of his early work: producing a feature adaptation of the acclaimed documentary 'The Battered Bastards of Baseball.'
'Fantastic Four' Script is Finished, But Who Will Star in the Film?
After a tortured development, it looks like the much-talked-about 'Fantastic Four' reboot is finally starting to gain some real traction. The current word is that Simon Kinberg's rewrite of the script is finally finished and going out to actors, who will soon audition in various combinations to see who clicks. Longtime fans of Marvel's first family of superheroes may want to sit down before they see who is being eyed for Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman and the Human Torch...
'Oculus' Trailer: The Mirror on the Wall Is the Scariest of Them All
The 'Oculus' trailer isn't shy about who's behind the film's production. Producer Jason Blum and his Blumhouse Pictures have had tremendous success with the horror genre, crafting films like 'Paranormal Activity,' 'Insidious,' 'Sinister' and 'The Purge.' The company's latest film is 'Oculus,' which bears many of the same traits as other Blumhouse films. Domestic setting invaded by supernatural horror? Check. A decent cast of actors lending credibility to what should be genre absurdity? Check. A trailer that relies on surreal imagery and the innocent-yet-creepy voice of a child to sell the chills? Check!
Pixar Reportedly Developing Their Own 'Star Wars' Movie
Now that Disney has gobbled up everything that's important to you and your childhood, they're going to start doing what any corporation worth its salt would do: start squeezing every single possible dollar out of your bank account until your wallet cries uncle. The first step in their recent wave of corporate synergy was giving the 'Star Wars' comic license back to Marvel. Step two is an even bigger deal: giving Pixar a 'Star Wars' movie to make.

Alan began by making some general points about what makes a good poem and recommended testing its effectiveness by reading it out loud. Rhythm is important. Rhymes, if used, stand out and should, therefore, always be intentional. A word with more than one meaning depending on how it is pronounced – he gave 'bow' as an example – can cause confusion in the mind of the reader. Alan also heavily discouraged the use of similes.
There were more than a dozen entries to the competition this time around and Alan commented on each poem individually before announcing the results. With so many different themes and styles to choose from, his task had been a difficult one, but he awarded the trophy to Cathy Grimmer for Kazakhstan Wedding, a colourful and moving account of a stolen bride's forced transition from childhood to womanhood. Caroline Slator took second place with He's Gone and David McAndrew came third with Golden Wedding.
There was time to listen to all the entries before we broke for refreshments, after which Alan was invited to read a selection of his own poems and Jan expressed thanks from the Chair on behalf of the Group.
Christmas Event 2014
Members and guests sat down to a three course meal in The Old Deanery, with plenty of fun and games to occupy us in between courses.
Joe presented the President's Cup to Susan Perkins and said that the result had been a close one this year with Cathy and Caroline not far behind.
We scratched our heads over the Chair's Christmas Challenge.
Members had been asked to compose Christmas limericks or other poems to suit the occasion.
A 'Who Am I' game caused considerable hilarity. The 'volunteers' in the masks did eventually work out who they were supposed to be – Charlie Chaplin, Carmen Miranda, David Bowie, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Clint Eastwood …
The proceedings ended with a rousing chorus of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas' and everyone having a dip into Santa's sack.
For more photographs, see below. Apologies for the quality, but lighting conditions weren't ideal for Admin's camera phone!
2014 Annual General Meeting
The AGM was well attended. Cathy reported that finances were healthy and her recommendation of a reduction in the annual subscription was accepted. Retiring Chairman Audrey gave a short report reviewing a successful past year and Jan, elected to take her place, expressed the Group's thanks to Audrey for her service in various offices over the past twelve years. Peter H succeeds Jan as Vice Chairman and the rest of the committee remains unchanged. A number of suggestions for meeting themes was put forward to assist the incoming committee in preparing a programme for the coming year.
A lucky win for TWO of our members!
Cathy won a free weekend at the 'Hearth' micro literary festival at Gladstone's Library in Hawarden and took lucky Maggie along as her 'plus one'.
The writers in residence were James Runcie (seen above with Cathy), whose series of novels about a vicar turned sleuth in Grantchester has now been turned into a television drama screened on Monday evenings, radio, TV and screen dramatist Lucy Gough and novelists Rebecca Abrams and Patricia Bracewell.
As well as enjoying the more formal events, both ladies were more than happy to sit round the eponymous hearth with glasses of wine in their hands and take part in the discussions.
For more information about their weekend, take a look at https://www.writers-online.co.uk/information/Gladstone%20Library%20Hearth%20literary%20micro-festival%20review/ or Maggie's website. Future 'Hearth' events will be posted on www.gladstoneslibrary.org
Literary Allsorts 2014
Our annual 'open mic' event was once again held at the Golden Lion, Allhallowgate and we were happy to welcome guests from Harrogate, Nidderdale and York. Between them, they treated the audience to poetry, prose, fiction and non-fiction, story telling and 'performance' pieces. Some read from their own published work and others from 'work in progress', including a blood curdling story written as late as that afternoon!
The readers, in the order in which they signed in at the start of the evening, were Peter Page, Richard Cobbett, Daphne Peters, Joe Peters, Nick David, Cathy Grimmer, Alan Gillott, Carol Mayer, Sheila Whitfield, Sue Hardy-Dawson, Jan Maltby, Paul Zealand, Claire Cox, Maggie Cobbett, Caroline Slator, Anna Greenwood and Kathleen Atkinson.
Earnest discussions took place during the interval and then time permitted more readings and a second slot from a few of the above.
Unfortunately lighting problems led to some photographs not turning out well and we do apologise to anyone who appears to have been left out. Their contributions to the evening were, of course, just as highly valued as the rest.
Artistic Licence Competition
Graham Chalmers, Weekend Editor of the Ripon Gazette and its sister papers, adjudicated for us for the first time. After giving considerable insight into his journalistic background and approach to judging, he provided valuable feedback on each of the twelve entries.
The winner of the competition was Lindsay Trenholme with 'The Rose of York', an imaginative story with a background of intrigue at the court of Henry VII. Peter Page's 'The Art Show', inspired by visits to a couple of local shows and the nursery rhyme 'Little Miss Muffet', came second. Eileen Walters was third with 'Portrait of a Tree', the tree in question being one which meant a great deal more to her than to the neighbour who owned it.
Graham also commended Susan Perkins for 'My Enlightenment' and Cathy Grimmer for 'A Fair Bargain'.
Following the presentation of the trophy, all five of the above members read out their entries.

by Vfghwe on 2/8/2013 10:16:26 PM

by chocolatehorse on 7/24/2012 11:03:51 PM
Dont get to mean but go tell the strangers that that they need to watch their mouths and tell you bro that they are stupid and are just jelous of how awsome he is and give him a little sissy love or a playful nudge.
by cookiebk on 6/1/2012 12:40:45 AM
People today don't know how to act in public! Don't let them get them down it's NOT his fault. These other people are right they're just jealous that he's special. Don't let them get you or him down!
by 512kca on 5/30/2012 9:19:40 PM
Wow, I can't believe people would do that! You should say to them, "what if that was you? What if evryone picked on you just because you learn slow?? I'm serious!" I do that a lot when I'm about to be mean and it makes me not be mean
by lilmissamazing on 4/15/2012 10:30:20 PM
Just tell him that "Look bro, those idiots are jealous that they're not as special as you" ....!!
I bet you, that will make him smile...
by Jensenacklecraze on 4/12/2012 3:26:57 AM
ithink you are great you should just tell them to mind their own bussiness and if they do not get it just tell them they are not 100% perfect so they should back off and concentrate on things that are better then wasting their time on nothing that will benefit them in their future.

Same thing happens to my brother. I'm in 6th grade.He's in 4th grade.When he sometimes comes home really sad, and he tells me why,i just wanna go to his school and confront those people.So it's like,he has good friends,and a really nice girl,named Gabby,who is my bff's little sister,but all of the others just tease him.
by Anniexgirl on 3/9/2012 7:59:54 PM
When ever someone says something mean to your brother, you should totally go up to them and say something like "you know what, I think you are the slowest person in the room if you think making fun of MY brother is a good idea. So go apologize to him RIGHT NOW or you are no better or nicer than a piece of poop." By the way, I hate it when people make fun of other people. I always stand up for someone who is getting picked on, even if they are not that nice of a person to me. But, that just makes me mad that people are saying that to your brother!! Give him a hug from me! Let him know that "people that mind don't matter and people that matter don't mind." I hope he gets treated better!

Simon Pegg to star in Phineas and Ferb
Simon Pegg is to star in 'Phineas and Ferb'.
The 'Shaun Of The Dead' actor has lent his voice to the Disney animation, playing a delivery man, after being approached by producers when he tweeted about the hit show.
Simon - who has a three-year-old daughter Matilda - said: ''Recently, I tweeted a line from one of the songs featured in 'Phineas and Ferb' - and a couple of weeks later I was asked to come and record some voice parts for the series, one for a character called Paul the delivery guy and the other for his father. I couldn't say, 'Yes!', quick enough!
''I'm a massive fan of 'Phineas and Ferb', my daughter and I fell in love with it immediately and we watch episode after episode as part of our morning routine. I can rewind sections up to 16 times just to watch her laugh and laugh and laugh. It is truly joyous.''
Simon says he can't wait to see Matilda's reaction to the show and is convinced she will enjoy it.
He added: ''Recording the characters has been a blast. 'Phineas and Ferb' is smart, energetic and above all, incredibly funny. I can't wait to see my daughter's reaction to watching her dad in our favourite show.''
A number of British guest stars have appeared on the show including David Beckham, Jamie Oliver, Damian Lewis and Gary Lineker.
The episode 'Delivery of Destiny' is set to premiere on Disney XD UK in spring 2013.26-11-2012

In this month's Handy Guide, Jura Koncius reports on how to buy paint. Using testers, selecting the right sheen and finding a high-quality brush are just some of the tips she gathered from experts.
She asked Bill Thornton, owner of Potomac Paint & Design Centers in Alexandria, Arlington and Chantilly, to choose three of his favorite new paint products. One of them is a color by Ralph Lauren called Monticello Yellow, named after the dining room at Thomas Jefferson's home.
It was recently discovered that he had painted the room this egg yolk yellow.
We'd like to know:
If so, which room would you paint this color?

Majure served previously in public relations with the Los Alamos Department of Public Utilities and as a reporter with the Los Alamos Monitor. She has a bachelor's degree from California-Berkley.

Northern New Mexico sheriff target of new probe
ESPAÑOLA (AP) — A northern New Mexico sheriff who replaced a sheriff convicted in a road-rage case is the target of a new investigation.
Rio Arriba County officials said an investigation found that Sheriff James Luján recently made inappropriate comments to staff.
The investigation comes after a pair of deputies claimed Luján used inappropriate slurs and discriminated against them for their political association with former Sheriff Thomas Rodella. Rodella was sentenced in January to 10 years in federal prison for abusing a driver in a bizarre, off-duty traffic stop that prosecutors described as a fit of road rage.
The county gave Luján , elected in November, a letter telling him to use better judgment with staff.
Social promotion bill tabled in Senate
Piñon Elementary will host its annual Annual Fun Saturday morning.
The race, which will start at the school, 30 Grand Canyon Drive in White Rock, will begin at 9 a.m.
Snacks and prizes will be offered at finish line to those taking part. Registration forms are available at the school.
Proceeds from the fundraising event will benefit the PTO.
Los Alamos County Engineer Project Manager Bryan Aragon took public input on plans for the upcoming 20th Street improvement project Wednesday. Despite backlash from the business community after the Central Avenue improvement project in 2014, attendance at Wednesday's meeting was relatively light.
Improvements include the removal and replacement of curb and gutter, 6-foot sidewalks with ramps that meet ADA standards and new drainage structures, asphalt and street lighting. Two new pedestrian crosswalks will be located at either end of the new teen center.
Ruby Alexander, owner of Ruby K's Bagel Café, was concerned about a second year of potential losses. Business was so slow during Central Avenue construction last year, Alexander said, she had to reduce store hours and cut back on employees' schedules. She asked for reassurances that the county would keep impacted businesses informed.
"Strong, two-way communication can do the trick," Alexander said. "I was shocked at the impact last summer."
Alexander's husband Mike Alexander reinforced that, asking how information would be disseminated and what assurances business owners had that they would receive ample notice of construction-related issues.
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) — A draft nuclear accord now being negotiated between the United States and Iran would force Iran to cut hardware it could use to make an atomic bomb by about 40 percent for at least a decade, while offering the Iranians immediate relief from sanctions that have crippled their economy, officials told The Associated Press on Thursday.
As an added enticement, elements of a U.N. arms embargo against Iran could be rolled back.
The very existence of a draft provided perhaps the clearest indication the sides were nearing a written agreement as they raced to meet a March 31 deadline for a framework pact. The deadline for a full agreement is the end of June.
Officials said the tentative deal imposes new limits on the number of centrifuges Iran can operate to enrich uranium, a process that can lead to nuclear weapons-grade material. The sides are zeroing in on a cap of 6,000 centrifuges, officials said, down from the 6,500 they spoke of in recent weeks.
That's also less than the 10,000 such machines Tehran now runs, yet substantially more than the 500 to 1,500 that Washington originally wanted as a ceiling. Only a year ago, U.S. officials floated 4,000 as a possible compromise.
The Republican Party of Los Alamos will meet with Los Alamos County Manager Harry Burgess for its monthly meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday.

Social media marketing is fast becoming one of the most effective tools businesses use to accomplish their goals. Here are some of the benefits that you can expect to get from it.
If you are establishing a start-up, one of the biggest mistakes you can make is waiting too long to hire. The other top mistake is hiring the wrong people to help you grow your business.
Contrary to what most people think, Google does not think that link building is pure evil. Generate quality links that Google approves of.
Having a mobile site can do wonders for your business. In fact, it is
now considered to be one of the most effective tools that can be used to
promote and market your products.
Sharing interesting and valuable content on social media can be a great way to build meaningful relationships with the key players in your niche.

Contributed by Carol Hansen on 11/13/2014
While most folks have their feet planted firmly on the ground, IC Physics professor Luke Keller is engaged in observing space from a flying telescope. In collaboration with NASA and other researchers, Luke works aboard the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, or SOFIA, an eight-foot-wide, 17-ton telescope situated within a modified Boeing 747. Work in the stratosphere and beyond with this and other observatories to study the formation of stars and planets has led him to wonder about how we define "the environment." Conclusion: It does not stop at the Earth's atmosphere! Luke will describe his work and how he came to be working on a flying telescope, then turn to a discussion of the "homo-sapiens-sphere," (also known as space debris and space "junk"), which now reaches to the edge of our solar system.

Burbidgea schizocheila 'Golden Brush'
Hi Everyone,
Can someone describe the best way to re-pot this species?
Right now I have 5 nice plants sharing a wide, yet not very deep, terra cotta pot. The pot is about 15 inches in diameter and 5 inches deep. The plants themselves are about 2 years old and about 2 feet tall.
Can I leave the plants as they are or should I put them in a deeper pot?
I have them under a 400 watt HPS and a 400 watt Metal Halide plant light.
Thanks for any information you can share!
Sincerely, Eric
Eric, why do you think they need repotting? Are they drying out really fast, or rootbound? The pot does seem sort of shallow.If it were me repotting them, I would divide them-just take a knife and cut straight down thru the tubers or roots, and pot them up into 2 gallon cont. so there is some width to the container.
I have had my eye on this ginger for a little while-do you like it? Has it bloomed for you yet? Where do you put it in the summer-full sun or some shade?

Safe Haven Productions
Violence/danger: Scenes of domestic violence are shown. A man and a woman are fighting over a gun and it goes off. A child is caught upstairs in a building on fire. One man uses bullying to get his way. A boy falls off a dock into the water. One character has some blood on her as she runs down the street.
Nudity/sensuality: A couple is together in bed. Only bare backs are shown but it is clear what is happening in the scene. The scene is short and the couple is shown in bed only one other time. At that time they are only talking.
Alcohol: One character abuses alcohol and is driving while drinking. He is intoxicated to some degree in many of his scenes.
The plot of "Safe Haven" moves at just the right pace. It does not assume that the characters have developed feelings for each other, nor is it so slow that it drags. Everything feels right about this couple falling in love. There is a nice twist at the end that results in a good family message. An audience of ages 14 and above would be fitting for this film.
