Things are getting spicy.
Neil Van Dyke
To get the keyword arguments discussion started, I'll provide a quick,
loosely-defined strawperson...
* Keywords look like ":foo", "foo:", or "#:foo", depending on your dialect.
* The main use of keywords is to name "keyword arguments" in procedure
applications and syntax uses, such as for optional arguments or for clarity.
* "lambda" is extended to permit keyword arguments to be defined, each
of which argument may have a default value. The argument is optional
iff a default value was defined.
* The various syntax definition forms should permit syntax transformers
to be keyword-aware as well.
* Example:
(define f (lambda (a b c (:foo 42) :bar) foo))
(f 1 2 3 :foo 4 :bar 5) ==> 4
(f 1 2 3 :bar 5) ==> 42
(f 1 2 3) =error=> :bar keyword argument required
(f 1 2 3 :foo 4 :bar 5 :zoo 6) =error=> unrecognized keyword :zoo
* Note: If keywords are first-class values, and you want to pass a
keyword as an argument in an application in a position in which it might
be parsed as a keyword, you cannot put a keyword literal into the
application syntax directly.
* I probably wouldn't have keyword arguments in WG2, but their
implementation in WG2 would likely impose requirements on WG1.

Working Group 2 thread:
...what do the resident clispers in prague think? Should they exist in the core language or should we have a supplementary (i.e. "defun" in all its glory) macro for WG2 Scheme?
As a CLer, I think keyword arguments are very useful(among the other lambdalist arguments such as &optional and&rest(well, you can write it using dot notation too)) in writing highly-parametrized functions and reducing boilerplate code.
If CL didn't have them, they would be trivial to implement with macros and compiler-macros - the other needed component being a destructuring-bind, but that can also be written portably.
I'm not sure how hard would be to add support for them as a library in Scheme, but probably wouldn't be terribly hard.
There is one major advantage to having the language include native support for them: people will use them everywhere, which shapes your language and implementation as well as how other people write code. If they are not included in the language specification, then less people will use them in actual code.
You forgot the Scheme standardization litmus test: can a student implement it into an interpreter in less than a week?
Implementing R6RS is already quite a bit of work.
You can implement keyword arguments in some 2-3+ pages of code.
R7RS Discussion? On my /prog/?
My take:
- Just fucking standardise parameters already
- Only syntax-rules in "core" scheme, I'd vote for syntax-case in "big" scheme
- Allow for Ascii-only implementations, but the unicode spec should be followed if you want to support any additional characters.
- Records should be their own types (this could be built on a base make-disjoint-type procedure) and by default should require you to specify the names of the accessors/mutators/predicates. Implementations could provide their own way to build records that generate names using non-hygienic macros, or this could be a standard library.
The whole concept of parameter *objects* are nice (i.e. you don't want to carry around dynamic bindings, too) but goddamn I want to dismember whoever thought of that name.
There was an attempt to make a portable library for Keyword Arguments (srfi 88) and Optional Positional and Named Parameters (srfi 89), but they are only supported by 5 and 3 schemes respectively.
Indeed, but its a standard name by now, and is used by virtually everyone.
Freakin' transput was a standard name in ALGOL 68 and look where it is now. If we're going to pisstake off it we can at least pull a T and rename it for posterity.
This is the Scheme community we are talking about, if we don't use that name, then we are probably never going to standardise it. I also kind of like parameterize
I can only see this useful if you're writing functions with huge numbers of optional parameters. Otherwise it just makes the code more verbose.
Making the code more verbose isn't inherently a bad thing, It can be useful if it makes the code more clear. I mean what does
point(1,2,3);mean? Does it mean that it has three co-ordinates, or does it have 2 and say a color value of 3? How can we know without looking at the documentation? The order of the parameters isn't always useful in determining what a function means. It may be more illuminating to have
point(x=1, y=2, color=3);or indeed
point(x=1, color=2, y=3. Now, we no longer need to know the argument order.
To take a more schemey example, the function
number->stringtakes a number and an optional radix.
(number->string 12) ;=>"12"
(number->string 12 2) ;=>"1100"
If we imagine we wanted a more general
number->stringthat takes one or more numbers and e.g. converts all the numbers and then concatentates them, then the logical extension would be to add more parameters to the end with a dotted list. But then we have a problem that if we want to take 2 or more numbers we need to supply the radix i.e.
(number->string 12 2) ;=>"1100" not what we want
(number->string 12 10 2) ;=> "122"
This requires extra arguments and makes the resulting code less clear. If radix was always a keyword parameter, then we could write
(number->string 12 2) ;=>"122"
(number->string 12 2 #:radix 2) ;=> "110010"
The important thing is not "How verbose is this", but "how readable is this".
Seems more intuitive to me, arguments or their handling routines can be easily misplaced. Why you can't retain the old form and keep these parameters too?
Do you mean "why can't we have both point(1,2,3) and point(z=3,x=1,y=2)"?
In some languages you can. I'm agnostic as to whether named parameters should always be named.
Here's a few examples:
These functions all have copious keyword arguments, but usually you want to specify either none in the simplest case, or one or two, or maybe all of them in some rare case. I've encountered all these situations in practice.
Specifying what you only need can reduce the amount of code your write in the case you only need a few keword arguments, and will increase readability/documentation in the rest. It's also useful if you care less about the order of arguments and more about their meaning.
In the case of complex interfaces packaged under a single function, keyword arguments are the solution. Just imagine what would Win32 API be if they would have used something like keyword arguments - no more NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL.
Those who do not understand OOP are condemned to reinvent it, poorly.
And what do keyword arguments have to do with OOP?and scheme already has reinvented OOP at least 15 times
I don't see what keyword arguments have to do with OO.
Why would you need to create an object/structure just so you could pass some parameters. Keyword arguments are much more lightweight and usually faster.
CL and Scheme already have fairly advanced OO facilities (CLOS+MOP are already far from anything you get in modern OO languages when it comes to features).
One should not confuse keyword/optional/rest arguments with what those in lesser OO systems do to get similar functionality: They make an object, add the fields for the parameters they want, and then make a dozen ugly constructors for every combination of arguments they prefer(overloaded). You then need an IDE to actually be able to properly create an instance of that object. That doesn't seem proper at all to me.
Speaking of keyword arguments and OO, initializing a structure in CL is done via keyword arguments, and making a new instance of a class is done that way too:
(make-instance 'class-name :initarg1 value-of-init-arg1 :initarg2 value-of-init-arg2)
(make-instance 'circle :radius 5 :color :red)
A structure:
(defstruct circle radius color)
(make-circle :radius 6 :color 'my-own-personal-brand-of-green)
Keyword arguments are messy but useful; I'd support them in WG2 but not WG1. One fundamental problem with keywords is that they don't obey lexical scope, and that always causes name clashes as soon as you start to combine things. I like SRFI 39 because it obeys lexical scope, and you can use parameters like keyword arguments in many situations. I would welcome SRFI 39 to WG1 and WG2, but it's not essential like SRFI 9.
While keyword arguments probably won't make it in WG1, optional arguments might. Riastradh has a nice proposal at <http://mumble.net/~campbell/proposals/optional.text>.
Could you explain how they don't obey lexical scope or cause name clashes? Some examples maybe?
I'm only familiar with them from CL, I don't know how different they are in Scheme than in CL. In CL, keywords are plain old symbols which lie in the KEYWORD package, which can be thought of as having an empty nickname, so you can write :some-keyword and the name would get interned(if it didn't exist) in said KEYWORD package. When you use a keyword, you do pollute said KEYWORD package, but that's not really a problem, as that's the intended purpose of the package - to simply store global names which can be used anywhere, as opposed to symbols which are interned in the current *package* or some other package. #:symbol is an uninterned symbol and (eq '#:symbol '#:symbol);=> NIL, but (let ((sym '#:symbol)) (eq sym sym)) ;=> T.
Keyword arguments could be implemented portably by just taking the entire argument list and destructuring it(or a limited form of destructuring, depending on what you're defining - a function, a macro, ...) according to its lambda list. Of course compilers are free to implement this much more efficiently, in ways that don't involve consing up argument lists (such as defining a compiler macro which does the destructuring at compile-time when possible (always possible except in cases of FUNCALL/APPLY usage) and calling a function/lambda with a constant number of args - this optimization is applicable for optional args as well).
What I'm confused about is where the problem you mentioned lies. The only problem I can see with keywords is that in CL, they require a junk package to be implemented, but if you think about it, there's nothing wrong about it, as long as you don't use keywords for other things than what they're meant to be used for.
Oh, and of course, when interning a symbol in the keyword package, its value is set to itself, thus it's becomes a self-evaluating symbol.
I don't know much about the existing alternatives, but I just want an alternative datum syntax for symbols and a standard destructuring method, really. Having qualified symbols evaluate to symbol data smells like a bad hack.
It actually does make sense. That's what self-evaluating symbols are. Keywords are self-evaluating. Think about it, if a symbol is self-evaluating, what value should you get when you evaluate one, eh? Of course, if keywords were not self-evaluating, all you would have to do is quote them ':kwd.
Someone ask The Sussman to propose GJS Jay Sussman Feat. JSB Sebastian Bach - We conjure the spirits of the computer with our spells as official theme song for Scheme.
See Shinn for a quick round-up of the semantics of keywords:
Alex Shinn:
Brian Harvey...
We don't actually need to make any such request, since the
WG2 charter requires that any valid WG1 program be a valid
WG2 program. If :foo and foo: are symbols in WG1, they must
be symbols in WG2.
Of course, this could still work if WG2 keywords were in
fact symbols, and thus usable as identifiers. But in
addition to syntactic differences, implementations seem to
disagree greatly on the actual semantics of keywords.
In both Chicken and Kawa, keywords are semantically a
special type of self-quoting symbol. symbol? returns #t for
them, and you can bind values to them with define (but then
not be able to access those values directly).
In the other implementations, keywords are fully disjoint
from symbols.
In PLT unquoted keywords are not first-class:
(list #:foo)
stdin::0: application: missing argument expression after keyword at: #:foo in: (#%app list #:foo)
(list #:foo #t)
list: does not accept keyword arguments; arguments were: #:foo #t
You need to quote them:
(list '#:foo)
These semantic differences seem much more problematic than
any syntactic concerns.
Consider the following wrapper:
(define (increase-counter s)
(display "Increasing counter ") (display s) (newline))
(define (wrap-with-counter f default-name)
(lambda (#:name (name default-name) . rest)
(increase-counter name)
(apply f rest)))
This works fine until I try to combine it with the following totally unrelated procedure, which may be in a different library.
(define (create-object #:name (name "default object name"))
(list 'object name))
I cannot solve this without changing one of them. I cannot import one of the keywords with a different name like I can with an SRFI 39 parameter. The two keywords are the same even though they obviously shouldn't be, just because they happen to use the same name.
I agree, named parameters can be a little more clear when reading the code, but that also means every time you use a function you'll have to remember the exact names of the parameters, not just their purpose.
these stupid R(6 and onwards)RS fucks should just learn common lisp and stop destroying scheme.
The names don't propagate through the different expressions, they are only valid in the originating lambda. I don't think anyone would propose keyword arguments be bound dynamically.
This is true. Are you arguing that this makes them worse? It's a different solution, but not a worse one.
While it's a shame how R6RS turned out, I don't think it's fair to crucify R7RS at this early stage. At least wait until they have presented something more tangible than a bunch of ideas.
That depends on the question. There is no complete solution to the problem of having to remember function arguments order/keyword names, other than to use some generous IDE. And this isn't even a complete solution in languages which encourage the use of first class procedures.
No propagating seriously hampers the use of keywords and it's not what PLT, SBCL, SRFI 89 and Chicken (DSSSL) do.
On the other hand it avoids my lexical scoping point and it makes optimization trivial.

"Happy to announce I reached an arrangement w/ @NintendoAmerica whereby I can tweet again. Arrangement includes my not working there anymore." – @Dan_Adelman
That's one way to announce you're leaving a company, but it's one that has a specific origin story when it comes to Dan Adelman's tenure with Nintendo Nintendo. Adelman was the company's lead on indie games, and had been with the company for the past nine years until his departure this week. During that time he was famously muzzled from social media because of his often contradictory stances with his own company.
He spoke out against Nintendo's policy that indie devs must work from an office, rather than home, against restrictions placed on Binding of Isaac due to Nintendo's policies on religious content, and then finally a few remarks about Nintendo's eternal struggles with region locking. That was when Nintendo stepped in, according to his latest interview with Kotaku:
"I had been strongly encouraged to stay off of Twitter Twitter—or at least say only things that were clearly safe—so after the region-locking comment they just said I needed to stop completely," Adelman said. "When people started complaining that I wasn't active on Twitter anymore, it was suggested that a PR person could just post in my name. I thought that was about the worst idea I'd ever heard, so I left it as is and let the silence speak for itself."
With all this said, Adelman maintains that this is not some violent split with Nintendo. He makes sure to emphasize that Nintendo was supportive of his departure, and he wasn't forced out and didn't leave angrily. Past that, he says that Nintendo is not doomed on the indie front, and the program is still in good hands despite his departure.
It's good that this isn't a high profile messy split like we've seen recently with Bungie, Naughty Dog and others, though it does serve to remind us that Nintendo can be a bit controlling when it comes to both their messaging and their policies.
While I can understand not wanting an employee to be constantly contradicting and questioning the company, every issue that Adelman took heat for, most would say he was on the right side of things. Almost no one is in support of wide-spread region locking, and the policy of restricting indie devs due to their work-from-home status was just downright ludicrous.
"There were people whose job it was to look up addresses in Google maps to see if the business address was a home or an office building," he says. "And if it looked a little residential, they'd ask for photos. There would be e-mail threads with literally a few dozen back and forth exchanges about whether the couch in someone's office was really used for business purposes or did someone really live there? That policy, thankfully, is gone."
Adelman hints that he's going to simply move from Nintendo to the indie industry itself, and there are any number of companies that would love to have him, I'm sure.
Still, it's a big loss for Nintendo, as Adelman was quite good at his job, despite his Twitter issues. Hopefully his team can pick up the slack, and Nintendo will raise someone equally adept to his former position. Nintendo needs to keep up with the constant rise of indie titles, after all.
I highly suggest reading the entire interview with Kotaku. Even if there are no hard feelings between Adelman and Nintendo, it's a remarkably candid exchange, and does serve to highlight Nintendo's past and present issues with many policies.

Quite often I need to be in two places at the same time but it's just not possible in the real world. Luckily however this doesn't apply to some CSS techniques and in this article we will explore an often used CSS technique that allows portions of the same element to appear to be somewhere else.
If you are unsure of what I mean then take a look at this tooltip example.
CSS ToolTip
As you can see from the example above as soon as you rollover the anchor link a nice little tooltip box appears. I'm sure many of you know how this is done already but we'll just explain the basics a little before we move on to some more interesting examples.
The technique works by targeting a nested element that is held inside the anchor and then using absolute positioning on that element to move it somewhere else. In order to have a consistent effect we create a local stacking context on the anchor by adding position:relative to it. This means that the nested absolute element will now be placed in relation to that anchor and not the viewport (should there be no other positioned parents).
The first thing we need to do is to create the HTML that will be used for this demonstration.
-
Roll your mouse over the following Rollover here please As you can see a nice little message box appears over the text and provides some more information..

In the above snippet we have nested a span element inside an anchor element and it will provide the text for our tooltip message. In order for the text inside the span not to show, we will simply hide it until it's called for. There are a number of ways of hiding the text such as using display:none, visibility:hidden or using an off screen measurement such as position:absolute;left:-999em.
The method I am going to use (which I find the most reliable) is to use visibility:hidden to hide the text. You may think that display:none would be better but IE can be a little buggy at times with this and the visibility method is more stable. The difference between display:none and visibility:hidden is that display:none will collapse the space that the element occupied to nothing; as though the element didn't exist at all.
Visibility, on the other hand, just makes the element visible or invisible but still preserves the space that the element occupies. This won't be a problem in our tooltip demo because the element is absolutely positioned anyway and therefore takes up no space in the flow of the document.
The CSS we need for his short demo is as follows:
- .example1 a{position:relative;}/* set stacking context -*/
- .example1 a span{
- visibility:hidden;/* hide message initially*/
- position:absolute;
- top:-75px;
- left:-70px;
- width:250px;
- padding:5px;
- background:#829900;
- color:#fff;
- border:2px inset green;
- text-decoration:none;
- }
- .example1 a:hover{visibility:visible}/* ie bug needed to make span show*/
- .example1 a:hover span{visibility:visible;}/* show image on hover*/
First, we set the anchor to position:relative, as already mentioned, and this ensures the tooltip is placed in relation to wherever the anchor is at that time.
The next step is to place the span absolutely at the position we require and to hide it. The code for that is pretty straight forward and is self-explanatory.
Finally, the clever bit: when the anchor is hovered we change the visibility of the span to visible. We do this by addressing the span while the anchor is in the hover state and using a descendant selector to target the span. Although IE6 only understands the :hover pseudo class on anchor elements (a elements with an href attribute) we can still effect a change on nested inner elements by using the anchors hover state. I should also point out that you can do these hover effects on any element in other browsers except IE6 and under (even IE7 is ok) as they support :hover on nearly all elements.
The code that does all the work is simply as follows:
- .example1 a:hover span{visibility:visible;}/* show image on hover*/
Couldn't be simpler could it?
IE6 Bug
However, if you try that code in IE6 and under you'll notice that the tooltip doesn't appear. This is due to a bug and IE6 (and under) won't effect a change to the span unless something is also changed on the anchor at the same time. As we don't want to change anything on the anchor, I use this "all purpose" solution and simply set the hover state of the anchor to be visibility:visible.
So our hover section now looks like this:
- .example1 a:hover{visibility:visible}/* ie bug needed to make span show*/
- .example1 a:hover span{visibility:visible;}/* show image on hover*/
The visibility:visible on the anchor has no detriment to the example because it affects nothing as the anchor was already visible but it cures the bug and can be used in any situation where you need this effect. The result of the above can be seen here in this tooltip example or in Figure 1 below.
Figure 1
Two Places at the Same Time
An interesting thing to note is that the absolute element can still be the target for the href in the anchor and if we change the element to be visible at all times we can have an effect like this:
Figure 2
We have the anchor text split in two places which was done with the following code:
-
 I am the main anchor hereAnd I am way over here

- .example1 a{
- position:relative;
- background:yellow;
- color:#000;
- padding:5px;
- }
- .example1 a span{
- position:absolute;
- top:200px;
- left:100px;
- width:250px;
- padding:5px;
- background:yellow;
- }
It's important to note that the yellow background color on the span must be explicitly defined to match the anchor's background because backgrounds are not inherited (even though most people think they are). A background will only show in a child element when that child element happens to be over the parent's background because the background's default is actually transparent. It is not inherited at all. Anyway, I digress and let's now set up a hover effect for the anchor.
- .example1 a:hover,
- .example1 a:hover span{background:red}
When either the span or the anchor is hovered both elements will change at the same time as can be seen in Figure 3 below or this live example.
Figure 3
When hovered, both parts turn red even though they are miles apart and the space between them is not active either. You may say that looks very nice but what actual use could this present in everyday layouts?
As usual it only takes a little bit of imagination and some interesting effects can be used to enhance your boring old web page. You could have text on either side of a fixed width section and as you traverse down one side the corresponding text also highlights. Or you could have the disjointed section as a graphical element or pointer effect. There are some more advanced examples here that might be of interest.
All Change
We will look at a couple of other examples that utilize the methods above so that you can see you are really only limited by your own imagination.
First of all take a look at the final result of our first task. The screenshots below show first the normal state and then the highlighted state as an element is hovered.
Figure 4
Figure 5
Granted it's not an earth shattering demo — the effect is that as soon as you enter the menu the whole menu changes color and each menu item is highlighted as you roll down the menu.
This example needs to be broken down in two parts because unlike the tooltip examples above each line of text is a different anchor and we need to change the background color of the ul on hover which is not possible in IE6 and under without using script. However we will get around this so don't worry.
For compliant browsers that allow hover on elements other than anchors we will use the following code:
- #nav{
- list-style:none;
- margin:20px;
- padding:0;
- width:200px;
- position:relative;
- float:left;
- background:red;
- border:1px solid #000;
- border-top:none;
- }
- #nav li{
- float:left;
- clear:left;
- width:200px;
- }
- #nav li a{
- float:left;
- width:180px;
- text-decoration:none;
- padding:3px 10px;
- color:#000;
- border-top:1px solid #000;
- }
- #nav:hover li{background:#ccc;}
- #nav li a:hover,#nav li.current a{background:orange}
-

Test 1

-
Test 2

-
Test 3

-
Test 4

-
Test 5

-
Test 6

-
Test 7

-
Test 8

-

There is nothing really clever here except that when the nav is hovered we change the whole background color of the nav and then change just the background color of the menu item.
The whole work is done here:
- #nav:hover li{background:#ccc;}
- #nav li a:hover,#nav li.current a{background:orange}
(I set up a current class in case you wanted one as a default.)
The CSS is straight forward and needs little explanation. We use the pseudo hover class on the ul (#nav) and then do the same for the anchor. It provides a nice subtle effect and you could substitute the background colors for images if you wished to make it more interesting.
How Can This be Done in IE?
Unfortunately as already explained we can't use the same process for IE6 and under because they only understand hover on anchor elements. Therefore we are going to use the aforementioned disjointed tooltip method to place a background over the whole navigation but we are going to do this from inside the anchor. Doesn't sound possible, does it?
The first thing we need to do is to change the HTML so that we have an extra element inside the anchor so that we have something we can re-position.

The nested span will be removed from the anchor and placed over the whole ul and will effect a change of background color to the whole ul. This is not quite as easy as it sounds. The navigation may be a fluid length as we don't want to work with fixed heights but IE6 has another bug (wouldn't you have guessed) in that an absolute element should be able to achieve 100% height of its parent. In nearly all other browsers you can set an absolute element to be 100% high of its relatively positioned parent and the absolute element will maintain pace.
IE6 (and under) doesn't obey this rule and collapses the height:100% to height auto which is effectively zero (or line-height) in our demonstration. Therefore we are going to utilize another technique of mine first seen in my equal column examples. For this method we simply place the span at the bottom of the ul and give it a height so big that it will always fill the column. We hide any overflow by using overflow:hidden on the parent. This method doesn't suffer from the "inpage links" problem that other equal column methods have suffered from.
Relative to What?
In the first tooltip example we placed position:relative on the anchor and placed the inner span in relation to the anchor. However, for this example we need to place the position:relative on the ul because we want all the spans to be positioned from the ul's position and not each individual anchor's position.
We are going to wrap the IE code in conditional comments so that only IE6 and under get it.

SUWANEE -- Soon, residents may be alerted about an impending storm, crime activity around the corner, or which concert is at Town Center on Saturday night.
City officials are pursuing the ability to notify residents by phone with a specific message that may only impact their neighborhood. Discussions about emergency alert systems and companies began in March after severe storms swept through the area. But they were augmented in April when a man, who later died, was accused of killing his girlfriend and shooting a neighbor in Auburn, then fleeing to a home on Scales Road in Suwanee.
That kind of situation makes an alert system that can circle a geographic area in which to notify residents appealing to city officials.
City manager Marty Allen recently told council members that after research of several companies by Suwanee Police Chief Mike Jones and Deputy Chief Janet Moon, a company called CodeRed is their preferred choice. The annual cost for the city is about $10,000, Allen said.
One of CodeRed's products is an emergency notification system that contacts residents by telephone, text message or email during emergencies.
"If we had this system at that time, we could have geographically created a circle that said 'everybody in here gets a specific message,'" Allen said of the Scales Road incident. "The benefit of it is it's similar to insurance. You hope you never have to use it, but if you have it, you're happy that you have it."
A CodeRed system was used last month after a chemical plant incident near Dalton. A similar system is in place around Rome. A message on CodeRed's web site said the company has grown to include institutions of high education and utility companies. Allen said it's used at schools like Virginia Tech following on-campus emergencies.
A bonus to the system would be an opt-in element that could inform residents by text message or email of an upcoming concert.
"That's not the core of why we're doing it, it's a bonus," Allen said. "I personally think that's going to become even more common, information pushing."

Money would be much better spent, and less, on a horn system to warn citizens of a tornado. We don't need to get calls for everything under the sun from local government. By the time you even get the message, the incident will probably be over anyway. You should always be prepared (as the Boy Scouts say) by carrying your concealed weapon.

Deepika Padukone has flown directly to Dubai from Ibiza to start shooting for her next project. She is a part of Farah Khan's film 'Happy New Year' co-starring Shah Rukh Khan.
The rest of the cast and crew had already reached there and the professional that our Deepika is, she decided to fly to Dubai instead of coming to India.
An insider says, " She's had a long holiday and Deepika wanted to get back to work soon. Before going for her vacation, she completed some dress rehearsals. For 20 days, she was entirely cut off from all news from the industry."
She had switched her phone off and totally disconnected herself from everything but now she is ready to get back to work all geared up. Deepika would also be seen in Homi Adajania's next and would be flying down to Goa from Dubai.
This girl really has her plate full. Well, Kudos to you. After the record breaking success of Chennai Express, you do deserve all the rest and more importantly great work coming your way.

Brad and Angelina's Strict Nanny Requirements
We have always wondered how Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie appear to raise such a well mannered brood of six without going completely insane. The answer: nannies, a lot of nannies, an entire basketball team of nannies. PopEater spoke to one applicant for the Pitt-Jolie nanny job who said she was surprised by the strict requirements asked of the family's childcare providers.
Each child, we are told, is given their very own personal nanny, who is required to have a college degree in either education or child development and to speak at least two languages. In the case of Brad and Angie's adopted children from other countries, the nanny is question is expected to speak the language of the child's native land.
The job applicant must also be willing to travel. This is a biggie since the family splits their time between California, New Orleans, France and a number of movie sets on a yearly basis.
According to our source, the positions pay between $50,000 and $150,000 on a sliding scale to start. With six kids, childcare can easily run the Jolie-Pitts a cool million on a yearly basis.
The requirements make sense (and believe us we have heard crazier) since the family travels so often each caregiver will essentially be a one-on-one teacher for the kids when they aren't enrolled in school.
What we have to say is kudos to the Pitt-Jolie publicity machine for their careful pruning of these nannies from the official paparazzi shots the family releases to the press. You would think six extra well-educated bodies traveling with the fam would be easy to spot, but we rarely see anyone but Brad and Angie minding the crew.

- Thursday 21 AprilBy Kookie
Kids need parents, not nannys. And they do not need to travel all the time. They need friends their own age and a normal childhood. Or is this normal to Brad and Angie.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy genie
I love that family. They are all awesome. I wish more kids could get that kind of opportunity. They are setting a wonderful example for mixed adoptions and adoptions in general. Not every one can afford the heart break and expense of in vitro , then why not consider unconventional adoption? What about the children in foster care? Older kids? Lots of non white kids are in our foster care waiting to be adopted. There are more white families wanting to and can afford to adopt. Love their family pics.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Bubbles
If you are TOO BUSY to raise your kids - YOUR TOO BUSY. I have 7. Time goes by so fast and they are grown. Brad and Angelina just seem to collect kids. How much REAL TIME are these kinds of kids getting when their parents ALWAYS have one foot out the door. A nanny for every kid - give me a break - how about 2 parents available to their kids. This kids are collections just like their homes and jewelry. Sad.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Kimiko
They're actors, Bubbles. Not just any actors at that, but actors who have the luxury of turning down work. They might actually spend more time with their kids than you do with yours.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Dee
Don't forget, they "rescued" these kids from a life of poverty and hardship. Much better to have a nanny then to be neglected.
Wish they would adopt me!!

As always...PAX looking sour as heck.Im telling you he will be trouble later no matter who raises him. Pretty sad to adopt children to just let a bunch of different Nannies raise the.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Joey d
I have never understood why these "celebs" go to other countries to adopt. I'm sure that there are enough children in this country that are in need of being adopted. It must be the "cool" thing to do, adopting from another country. I also guess that including the nannies in photos would'nt be too cool, after all you are trying to give the impression that you are doing all of the parenting.

Why on earth do they have to dress Shiloh like a boy all the time???!!!? She is a girl! and a pretty little girl at that, but since she's been a baby, all the pictures I ever see of her Brad and Angie dress her up like a boy! Why??? Vivianne, meanwhile, is dressed like a girl just fine, and usually Zahara too. I don't get it.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Beverly
I sure can use a job as their nanny.I have raised 4 children and a grandmother.Never had a education in child care.It all came naturally.I have twin girls who will soon be 11 and great students.Why College I wonder?I speak all english and can handle an american child lol.I ran a daycare out of my home and got great references.Can travel.People have great jobs never went to college,Why as a nanny?
- Thursday 21 AprilBy josie
I think they have a beautiful family, Mom and Dad included.Even little Shilo is looking more like a little girl now, she is a cutie too. The first time I saw her in her baby photo, she had on blue baby pants, I thought they had a boy! Maybe Angie wanted to keep her boy like right from the start,thinking that would keep her strong and protected....
- Thursday 21 AprilBy rockhound34x
Calling Brad and Angelina "parents" is an exaggeration. To those defending them, saying they have to work, etc, so what? My mother raised four of us on her own. She worked full time, provided everything we needed, and made sacrifices. These adopted children will have more of a relationship with their nannies than they will of Brad and Angie. My mother worked tirelessly for years as director of Social Services in the city where we lived and if you do not think that is a hard job in a city of 1 million plus, you are out of touch with reality.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy josie
It was reported that Shilo dress's herself, well she didn't dress herself like a boy from birth or until she could pick out her own clothes. Someone put her in boys clothes from birth.

Maybe the reason we never see the 6 nannies is because there aren't 6 nannies! The way this article (and most internet "news") was written and not proof -read ("The nannie is question") looks like they're just spewing things out as fast as they can type them. IF they actually have 6 nannies then great, each child is well looked after. However, you can't believe everything you read, especially these days when they try to sensationalize every single story (or non-story) and facts are subjective and subject to interpretation. I wonder if a bunch of lawyers are writing for the internet now??
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Suzanne
Whoever the insensitive moron is who wrote this...... Does it matter to you that you are rude and insulting to large families? By implying that the only reason Brad and Angelina don't look insane is because they have one nanny per child..... So does that mean every other large family is insane? You jerk!
- Thursday 21 AprilBy chris
You would think with all the money they make, they could afford to feed their kids or at least buy clothing that fits. I have an El Ed degree, am a former nanny, and you could not pay me to work for people like this. It breaks my heart to think of what their life is like.
- Thursday 21 AprilBy Brandy
Proof reading would be nice! I think with six children and how busy they are, they have no other choice but to have nannies. I think it is very cool that they speak the native language of the child. These two have the money and they are spending it to make sure their children are educated correctly.

Does anyone who has been to Nepenthe Restaurant know if it is wheelchair accessible? We'd very much like to go and visit it on our "big trip", but need to know if we can get a wheelchair up there.
According to yelp.com, it is wheelchair accessible. It's always best to call ahead, though, to be certain. Have a great trip!
Yes it is. You can drive up the business/delivery driveway, at north corner of parking lot, and there is handicap parking with a ramp accessing the restaurant. Enjoy!

Five Things from the second round of the HSBC Champions: 1. Louis, Louis Louis Oosthuizen is halfway to his 10th career victory, holding a five-shot lead in the HSBC Champions at Mission Hills Golf Club. Oosthuizen, 30, continued to master the Olazabal Course, recording a 9-under-par 63 Friday after an opening 65. The South African sits at 16-under 128. Australian Adam Scott (68) and South African Ernie Els (63) are tied at 11-under 133. "Looking at the leaderboard, there are so many great players up there. Like I said, it's far from over," Oosthuizen said, drawing parallels to his standing here and his 36-hole lead en route to the Claret Jug in the 2010 British Open at St. Andrews. "With this tournament, I'm in a great position to win it, but it's not even crossed my mind at the moment. There's still a lot of golf to be played, and I need to put myself in a great position going down the back nine on Sunday." With only one bogey this week -- Thursday on the par-3 second hole -...

About her
Our only daughter is a modern, homely girl with moral values. By nature, she is a sensitive, kind hearted, soft spoken person & with an artistic temperament, good in painting & music (Has cleared Grade 2 in Western Classical Music in Piano affiliated to Royal School of Music, London from Calcutta School of Music). She likes to travel & has a flair for cooking. She has done her schooling from St Joan's & Queen of the Missions Convent and later on completed her M.B.B.S from Southern Medical University in Guangzhou, China & her Internship from NRS hospital Kolkata.
Our ancestors were probasi bangali from M.P though they were originally from west bengal. My father during his days was a pioneer in the aviation history of pre independence India & used to maintain a fleet of private aircrafts of all the noteworthy people of that era. He used to be a trainer pilot in his earlier days & was connected to the aviation industry of India till he retired from
Indian Airlines.
My father-in-law was a G.P and did his Short Commission Service in the army during World War II, after graduating from Rangoon Medical College. He was a popular & an extremely dedicated Doctor who settled down in Dhanbad after coming over to India from Burma. A number of eminent figures from freedom fighters, literature & other areas can be traced in the ancestral chain of both me & my wife's side.
I am still working in the merchant navy as a chief engineer & my wife is a convent educated science graduate & a home maker. Our immediate & extended family is spread all over India & the world and doing quite well in their own spheres. We are a fun loving, globe trotting close-knit family which includes our extended family as well. My daughter, though she is our only child, is very attached to all her cousins. We are very down to earth people & give a lot of importance to culture, education, family bonding and values of life. We have tried to instill these qualities to our next generation & would like to have negotiations with like-minded families.
We are looking for a well qualified and well placed life partner for our daughter who will be her friend in every aspect and will belong to a very cultured, harmonious, close-knit family. We believe marriages are between two families.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
GGC doesn't deserve one-sided attack I was thoroughly insulted by the blatant attack on Georgia Gwinnett College by Rob Jenkins ("Forget the mascot, GGC needs a slogan," Life & Leisure, Aug. 6).Clearly his close association with Georgia Perimeter has clouded his judgment (Jenkins is an associate professor at the college), and I believe he has committed a great disservice to the readership of the Gwinnett Daily Post. He chooses to attack GGC from every angle. It is a brand new school that hasn't even had its first day of classes and yet he is ready to tear it down. Low initial enrollment numbers? It's new and is now only accepting students with a certain number of transfer credits, which is going to decrease the initial potential pool of students. I am going to be attending GGC this fall. I was forced to stop my college education four years ago when I moved from Kansas to Georgia. I have a full-time job and a house. Dropping everything and going downtown to school is not an option for me. Nor is shelling out $27,000 for an online degree. Now that there is a four-year college so close to me, I can finally finish my degree. This will mean great things for me. So Jenkins wants a slogan? How about GGC: We can give you a bachelor's degree. That is something his precious GPC simply cannot do. - Joanna B. Ortega Lawrenceville 'Ask Amy' column worth keeping I strongly disagree with the recent letter writer ("Too much gay coverage in column," Aug. 3, To the Editor) who urged you to drop Amy Dickinson's column for one more like "Dear Abby." The letter writer's main objection seemed to be that Dickinson devotes an inordinate amount of space to the problems of homosexuals or individuals struggling with gender-identification issues. The writer seems to think that there can't be enough people in your readership interested in those topics to warrant a column that addresses them. Let me state that I have two relatives who are gay and their problems are important to me. Dickinson's column is one of the first things I look for in the Gwinnett Daily Post. In my opinion, she is the best of the advice columnists. Please keep her. - Robert L. Griffeth Duluth We welcome letters from our readers. Address letters for publication to: Letters to the Editor, Gwinnett Daily Post, P.O. Box 603, Lawrenceville, GA 30046-0603. The fax number is 770-339-8081. Our e-mail address is email@example.com.

I bought this after my sister raved about how amazing it was and how it removed all her waterproof makeup with the lightest fairy sprinkle amount and the slightest swipe across the eyes. Ha.
The truth is this stuff disappears very quickly and that's after doing jack. I don't even use waterproof eye makeup and I still find more eye makeup on my towels after using this remover *and* washing my face than I do on the cotton pad with the product.
Add to its poor performance the fact that this is a department store product with department store prices, and you can forget it. My quest continues... I'm on to Kashuk's Remove next.

I always have problems with waterproof mascara, but this is the best remover to take it off, I don´t even have to rub a lot, and it is also great removing lipstick.

I really like this make up remover. It's an oil based product, so it glides on easy and takes make up off in one swipe (no tugging or pulling on skin).
I found it a little bit pricey ($22.00 CDN for 4.2 oz) but it is certainly worth it. Even though it's oil based, it doesn't leave an oily residue underneath my eyes and on my eye lids (I also just wipe a cold cloth to make sure it's off).

I tried this to save money by buying this instead of the Lancome Bifacil. It works just as well as the Lancome, but it's a little thicker, heavier and feels greasy to me. While it's almost $10 less expensive, I really don't like the greasy feel. I'm going to try the Neutrogena before I go back to the Lancome.

This is the only eye make up remover that I feel removes all traces of eye make up without rubbing at the eyes. It doesn't irritate my eyes at all.
Yup it's more expensive than a drugstore brand but it works well for me.
I would like a pump for this product just because sometimes pouring a liquid product can make you use too much but that's my only (slight) negative about this product.

I love this product because it doesn't irritate my eyes, but it removes the most stubborn waterproof mascara with ease. I have found drugstore eye makeup removers that were almost as good, but never any that are as good. If you have a difficult time finding a makeup remover that you like, you may want to give this one a go.

For a makeup remover this is expensive but it really does work! It removes all traces of eye makeup and does not irritate my eyes at all! It really does what it claims " take the day off" I feel so refreshed and clean after using this. One thing that i disliked about the remover is that it is very oil when you put it on a cotton ball and then transfer it to your face. The cotton ball is soaked in the solution and it can get very messy if you do not realize how much you are absorbing onto it. You just need a little bit!!! Because this bottle is not very big i only used a very small amount for both eyes and it lasted me about 6 months.

I really do like this eye makeup remover alot. It has the ability to remove both waterproof and non-waterproof eye makeup alike. And, it doesn't sting my eyes at all.
I sincerely hope that one day Clinique will start selling it in a larger bottle. I find that a bottle of this stuff can go up rather quickly!

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 3/31/13
Opening Day in Cincinnati is about much more than baseball. It's a holiday that dates to the late 19th century that's celebrated with a colorful parade that winds through downtown and elaborate pregame ceremonies on the field. People with or without game tickets flock to street parties, tailgating gatherings and park picnics. There's usually an amnesty for truant students and workers who make suspicious sick day requests. Cincinnati Reds broadcaster Marty Brennaman (BRIN'-uh-muhn) says there's nothing else like it in baseball. Historian Greg Rhodes says it is a tribute to a community's love for its baseball team that grew out of a scheduling quirk into the city's ''baseball holiday.'' People are getting ready for Monday's events and the opening game with the Los Angeles Angels. --- Online: http://findlaymarketparade.com/Cincinnati-Opening-Day-History

My best friend's dad introduced me to riding when I was about 13 or so. He bought his two sons bikes, a Honda 50 for his youngest and a Kawasaki 90 for my buddy. He also had an old Honda SL70 that he taught me to ride. We rode constantly all summer and as we all grew bigger, so did the bikes. On to 125's and a Kawasaki F7 175 that I thrashed mercilessly.
I think my own father finally felt sorry for my friend's dad and went out and bought me a brand new '77 Yamaha DT175, which I still have to this day.
When my friend's dad passed away many years ago I made a promise to myself that I would pay it forward and teach my son's friends and others to ride and I do so to this day.
Mr. Bradburn's time, patience and encouragement to ride set me on a path that forever changed my life for the better in innumerable ways.

Phil Hughes throws first bullpen session since being shut down with bulging disk in back
Mar 9, 2013, 12:02 PM EDT
Phil Hughes was diagnosed with a bulging disk in his upper back not long after arriving to spring training, but he returned to the mound earlier this morning.
According to Andrew Marchand of ESPN New York, Hughes threw a 10-pitch bullpen session and reported no issues with his back. He's scheduled to throw a longer one on Monday and will progress from there.
There's no timetable for Hughes to throw in a game, so the Yankees are preparing for the possibility that he will not be ready for the start of the season. If he needs more time, Ivan Nova and David Phelps will both begin the year in the rotation.
Hughes, 26, went 16-13 with a 4.23 ERA and 165/46 K/BB ratio over 191 1/3 innings last season. He is eligible to become a free agent after the 2013 season.

can his back be a thing for the entire season or is he clear.
bad year for this to be a problem.
I hope he will be healthy.

Good luck Evil Empire fans. So far this spring, the gods of baseball are not favouring your team.
- fanofevilempire - Mar 9, 2013 at 4:36 PM
you said it, hopefully they get it out their system
and leave that behind when they drive up I-95.
AL East is going to be a Beast this year.

Phelps is more then ready to step in, if i were you i would worry about my own team. You know the one that hasnt done jack in 20 years? Well better add another year cause this year will not be any diffferent, jay fans can really relate to that movie groundhog's day! After all every season ends the same!!
- proudlycanadian - Mar 22, 2013 at 10:51 AM
Alas Harry, Phelps just gave up 5 runs in 3.67 innings to the lowly Twins. I am certainly not worried about him.
- proudlycanadian - Mar 22, 2013 at 5:31 PM
Dear Harry. Ivan "Super" Nova blew up today. Phelps sucked yesterday and Nova sucked today. Good luck to the Evil Empire.
- uyf1950 - Mar 9, 2013 at 1:03 PM
That's a good sign. The Yankees need him to get and stay healthy and go into his FA year (2014) with a lights out 2013.

This Ramirez kid that pitched the first four innings today is the real deal, a lot of poise and a 96mph heater, look out for this kid, he's a commer.
- pisano - Mar 10, 2013 at 12:45 AM
Check that, comer.
