|Reviews for Shades of Gray
| Fairy.Rains chapter 42 . 6/27
Wow. And i mean wow. I just reading beginning to end. This story is amazing. I truly think its the best inu fic ive ever read. It has everything, angst, humor, suspense, terror, lust, and waffy. I am totally distraught that i have to wait for more. You truly have a gift and i hope you can finish this one. I really love everything you have here. Its actually hard my mind around the idea that this is just a story and not a life i lived (but then again i pretty much havent moved for the past as i read all this so a loss of reality is expected). Anywho, good luck on the rest.
| kenzie.parish chapter 42 . 6/3
By the way, I'm in love with this story! (Yeah, I know that should have come first but whatever :) )
| Guest chapter 42 . 8/16/2014
Please okease update! It's been more than a year :(
| inuyashal0v3r chapter 42 . 7/17/2013
I think I figured out the whole 'Jiro thing! The house in Ireland yash and miro were talking about that was supposed to be in the will isn't there because jiro faked his death and went to live there, hence the empty casket. And the doctor inu was talking about was a friend of jiro, and had helped him out
| Galaxys Magic chapter 42 . 7/13/2013
I wanted to run down the street screaming "YAYYY" into the night when I realized you posted another chapter! Thanks for making my night, keep up the great work! Loved it!
| confusedreader chapter 42 . 7/13/2013
I read your story and I'm a bit confused on Inuyasha's feelings on Kagome. I thought I read him coming to terms and accepting that he is in love with her and in this chapter he acts unsure if he wants to be with her and saying he won't hold what is brother did for her over head to need to stay with her or her with him. Is it just me or does it seem he wants to be a bachelor and if so then everything that has happened was in vain. I'm just confused. Other than that everything else in this chapter was quite good.
| fanficnewbiee chapter 42 . 7/11/2013
Thanks for the update. Good twists. Happy writing! :)
| YourWettestDream chapter 42 . 7/11/2013
OMG, what do you mean empty coffin? Is Jiro alive? OMG OMG I don't get it, haha, I guess it adds to the confusion of how long it's been since the last time you posted a chapter :T You're still genial, don't say that. I truly only wish you'd take less time to update, but since you don't I can't pressure you. It's just that the story loses a bit of its interest when it takes too long, but still, I believe Shades of Gray is the one only job I've read that even after nearly a year gap you can come back, read it, remember most of what's happening, situate yourself within the chapter, enjoy it, and be excited for the next one.
AW, I miss some reviews replies! Hahaha, again, great job! 'Til next time
P.S: What does the chapter name mean? I'm curious.
| fanficnewbiee chapter 41 . 2/12/2013
What an incredible story! Please complete this!
| akr0070 chapter 41 . 11/27/2012
I have been reading this story off and on for awhile but I spent the whole day reading it over again and I just wanted to say how much I admire your writing style, characterization, and intriguing plot. Can't wait to see how it all turns out.
| GladApple chapter 41 . 11/1/2012
Wow, I cannot tell you how much I love this story. I have laughed, cried, cried some more, literally hollered with joy from my pc, and cried more. You wrote this so beautifully and this chapter was just beautiful and amazing, everything I could have hoped for! I hope the ending is as beautiful as this chapter. On a random note, I want to say from personal experience, you wrote the part of an abuse victim very well, it is very hard to find fiction that can actually write it to a T. I am still in tears that Jiro is dead. You wrote a character so well we loved him as much as Inuyasha. I hope you keep writing, you have a gift and this was a beautiful story,
| Maluu chapter 41 . 10/10/2012
OMG, have you already realized how Fifty Shades of Grey IS A,DAAAMN COPY OF YOUR WORK/FANFIC? I mean, either you are the writer for that book, hidden, or it's a shameless copy of your story. That's all I gotta say, and that of course, the new chapter is fantastic, congratulations :)
| Guest chapter 41 . 8/27/2012
Omigod I have been waiting for this chapter for what seems to be decades, now that I read it Im bawling at my office like a little bitch. Jiro NOOOOOOOOOO *whimper*
| Vam21 chapter 1 . 8/25/2012
I love this story it was so many ways it could have went but I love it please update it soon!

O_O Jiro's...dead? ;-; I'm now crying. It's nice that he gave himself up for Kagome, but still...

Hanging Lights for Bedrooms
Pendant lights and chandeliers can add romance and elegance when hanging from the ceiling of your bedroom.
By: Gina Hannah
Hanging pendant lights or a chandelier in your bedroom is a great way to add not only light but beauty and elegance. A hanging bedroom light can provide ambient lighting or add a focused spot of light for tasks such as reading. Typically seen in kitchens and dining rooms, hanging lights may seem unconventional in the bedroom, but many homeowners are finding them a perfect way to add light and art to their personal retreat.
Hanging lights fall into two categories: pendants and chandeliers. Pendants are usually simple in design, with a single cord/chain system for hanging. Despite their simplicity, they come in a large range of sizes and styles; they can be found as a single pendant or as two or three hanging globes.
Chandeliers hang in a branched system and tend to be larger and heavier than pendants. While the term "chandelier" may conjure up images of teardrop crystal and candles, modern chandelier styles with metal, glass and other materials can add a stunning touch to a contemporary bedroom.
Choose matching pendants or chandeliers for the sides of your bed to provide task lighting for reading and to free up some room on bedside tables for books, an alarm clock and other items. Hang a single, large pendant light or chandelier over the bed to create a stunning focal point. If your master bedroom suite has large walk-in closets and/or a dressing area with a high ceiling, a pendant light or chandelier is a good choice for lighting these areas.
String lights are another option that can add soft lighting to the bedroom. Pair the lights with sheer white curtains for a romantic look, either on the wall behind the bed or on the frame of a four-poster bed, to create a dreamy canopy. Hang bare string lights along a wall or window for a soft lighting effect.
When placing hanging lights in your bedroom, keep the overall design of the room in mind. The center of the room is not always the best place to put any type of ceiling lamp. Ceiling light fixtures should always hang in the center of the most important element of the room, whether it's a table, bed or windows. In the bedroom, this feature will most likely be the bed.
Be sure to place any type of hanging lights for the bedroom high enough so that you won't bump your head when getting in and out of bed. In addition, pendant lights and chandeliers hanging near the sides of beds should be a safe distance from fabric and other flammable materials.
Like other light fixture styles, hanging lights can be placed on dimmer switches, so you can create the mood you want.

Only Way Big Three Stays With Miami Heat Is If Dwyane Wade Takes Major Pay Cut
Well, the NBA season is officially over, and the Miami Heat weren't able to accomplish what they set out to do this season by winning a third straight championship. After running into the onslaught known as the San Antonio Spurs, one thing was made abundantly clear for the Heat; they lacked true depth to even compete.
This offseason will pose a lot of questions for the Heat franchise, with the main one being whether LeBron James will opt in to his contract or take his talents elsewhere and disband the Big Three of himself, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade. Both James and Bosh will demand top dollar on the open free agent market this summer, so the Heat will have to make sure they are still offering competitive contracts to both players (even though they would have to take pay cuts similar to 2010 in order to re-sign the Big Three). The big question mark of course is the contract of Wade.
Wade has made it clear over the course of this season that he expects to maintain a similarly structured contract if he decided to opt in with the Heat this offseason, or even re-sign a whole new contract. Wade is currently owed $42 million over the next two seasons, but he could demand a contract up to four years and $100 million. That notion is absolutely absurd though. Due to his declining healthy and his poor performance in the NBA Finals, what justifies him receiving a top dollar contract similar to Bosh or James? Wade is obviously on the decline and wouldn't demand anywhere near top dollar on the open market if he decided to become a free agent. Wade told SB Nation:
"There are different times and different mindsets that you deal with. That was 2010," Wade said. "I'm not saying that LeBron James or Chris Bosh, if they get the opportunity again, are going to leave $17 million on the table. No one can say they should do that. You have to do what is best for you."
If James, Bosh and Wade want to remain in Miami and add high-caliber role players to the roster in order to compete for a title in 2015, then Wade's contract must be significantly less than what Bosh and James will re-sign for. Wade's health alone proves that he just isn't reliable and isn't deserving of a max contract anymore. If Wade forces the issue of retaining a max-dollar contract this offseason, there is a very good chance both LeBron and Bosh will leave for another team that has considerable depth and talent. The only way the Heat will be able to retain all three players this summer is for Wade to take more of a pay cut than LeBron or Bosh. It's just that simple.

If a class is fine at a certain amount of resilience (and I am stating that this point will exist for every class if damage is to be brought to a reasonable level) and the same percentage of a higher Ilevel item's budget is used for resilience, eventually replacing some of the PVP gear with PVE gear will become the clearly superior choice. Unless that same chunk of resilience has a higher value at this point, high enough to outweigh the extra secondary stats that you will always need (extra damage, healing, regen) versus the survivability you do not necessarily need.
Higher iLevel would mean that incoming damage is higher and subsequently the point would be raised. This would necessitate the extra resilience on gear. Sure, it might become optimal for stomping teams with weaker gear to sacrifice some resilience but that is hardly the situation of concern.

i was so drunk i stopped mid-blowjob to make sure he i was with my boyfriend and not some random. twice.
just threw all of the fireworks into the bonfire. thats why there are firetrucks.
Yeah we can't find him. He left a note saying he left and isn't that drunk with what appears to be an attempt at the quadratic formula for proof. He also wrote down his number and left his phone by the note
Bad news: I found out that girl you want has a boyfriend. Good news: she'll probably cheat on him with you. Better news: after seeing the way she treats him, that's the most interaction you're going to want with her anyway. Trust me.
I think my vagina has grown over, not unlike earring holes when not used in a long amount of time.
He put his hand in my cleavage. NOT ON. IN. BETWEEN. NO more gingers

It will be like a scavenger hunt.. only we're looking for places to have sex.

A long-abandoned fermentation process once used to turn starch into explosives can be used to produce renewable diesel fuel to replace the fossil fuels now used in transportation, University of California, Berkeley, scientists have discovered.
Campus chemists and chemical engineers teamed up to produce diesel fuel from the products of a bacterial fermentation discovered nearly 100 years ago by the first president of Israel, chemist Chaim Weizmann. The retooled process produces a mix of products that contain more energy per gallon than ethanol that is used today in transportation fuels and could be commercialized within 5-10 years.
While the fuel's cost is still higher than diesel or gasoline made from fossil fuels, the scientists said the process would drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation, one of the major contributors to global climate change.
"What I am really excited about is that this is a fundamentally different way of taking feedstocks – sugar or starch – and making all sorts of renewable things, from fuels to commodity chemicals like plastics," said Dean Toste, UC Berkeley professor of chemistry and co-author of a report on the new development that will appear in the Nov. 8 issue of the journal Nature.
The work by Toste, coauthors Harvey Blanch and Douglas Clark, UC Berkeley professors of chemical and biomolecular engineering, and their colleagues was supported by the Energy Biosciences Institute, a collaboration between UC Berkeley, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, and funded by the energy firm BP.
The linkage between Toste, whose EBI work is in the development of novel catalysts, and Clark and Branch, who are working on cellulose hydrolysis and fermentation, was first suggested by BP chemical engineer Paul Willems, EBI associate director. The collaboration, Willems said, illustrates the potential value that can come from academic-industry partnerships like the EBI.
The late Weizmann's process employs the bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum to ferment sugars into acetone, butanol and ethanol. Blanch and Clark developed a way of extracting the acetone and butanol from the fermentation mixture while leaving most of the ethanol behind, while Toste developed a catalyst that converted this ideally-proportioned brew into a mix of long-chain hydrocarbons that resembles the combination of hydrocarbons in diesel fuel.
Tests showed that it burned about as well as normal petroleum-based diesel fuel.
"It looks very compatible with diesel, and can be blended like diesel to suit summer or winter driving conditions in different states," said Blanch.
The process is versatile enough to use a broad range of renewable starting materials, from corn sugar (glucose) and cane sugar (sucrose) to starch, and would work with non-food feedstocks such as grass, trees or field waste in cellulosic processes.
"You can tune the size of your hydrocarbons based on the reaction conditions to produce the lighter hydrocarbons typical of gasoline, or the longer-chain hydrocarbons in diesel, or the branched chain hydrocarbons in jet fuel," Toste said.
The fermentation process, dubbed ABE for the three chemicals produced, was discovered by Weizmann around the start of World War I in 1914, and allowed Britain to produce acetone, which was needed to manufacture cordite, used at that time as a military propellant to replace gunpowder. The increased availability and decreased cost of petroleum soon made the process economically uncompetitive, though it was used again as a starting material for synthetic rubber during World War II. The last U.S. factory using the process to produce acetone and butanol closed in 1965.
Nevertheless, Blanch said, the process by which the Clostridium bacteria convert sugar or starch to these three chemicals is very efficient. This led him and his laboratory to investigate ways of separating the fermentation products that would use less energy than the common method of distillation.
They discovered that several organic solvents, in particular glyceryl tributyrate (tributyrin), could extract the acetone and butanol from the fermentation broth while not extracting much ethanol. Tributyrin is not toxic to the bacterium and, like oil and water, doesn't mix with the broth.
Brought together by the EBI, Blanch and Clark found that Toste had discovered a catalytic process that preferred exactly that proportion of acetone, butanol and ethanol to produce a range of hydrocarbons, primarily ketones, which burn similarly to the alkanes found in diesel.
"The extractive fermentation process uses less than 10 percent of the energy of a conventional distillation to get the butanol and acetone out – that is the big energy savings," said Blanch. "And the products go straight into the chemistry in the right ratios, it turns out."
The current catalytic process uses palladium and potassium phosphate, but further research is turning up other catalysts that are as effective, but cheaper and longer-lasting, Toste said. The catalysts work by binding ethanol and butanol and converting them to aldehydes, which react with acetone to add more carbon atoms, producing longer hydrocarbons.
"To make this work, we had to have the biochemical engineers working hand in hand with the chemists, which means that to develop the process, we had learn each other's language," Clark said. "You don't find that in very many places."
Clark noted that diesel produced via this process could initially supply niche markets, such as the military, but that renewable fuel standards in states such as California will eventually make biologically produced diesel financially viable, especially for trucks, trains and other vehicles that need more power than battery alternatives can provide.
"Diesel could put Clostridium back in business, helping us to reduce global warming," Clark said. "That is one of the main drivers behind this research."

IPSWICH Police Sergeant Tony O'Meara is in a distinguished line-up of 13 local police officers.
The communications co-ordinator and his fellow officers have been nominated for the inaugural Rotary Police Officer of the Year Award.
Sgt O'Meara said his job at Yamanto police station was basically as a "tasking officer".
"When members of the public call in, I read through the jobs and prioritise them and get an appropriate policing response," he said.
"It does get busy."
Sgt O'Meara, proud of a 30-year career as a police officer, said he was shocked and honoured to be nominated.
"There's a lot of good staff out there who do a terrific lot of hard work," he said.
"Any community recognition is a good thing.
"I always wanted to be a police officer. I thought it would be a good career.
"We've got to go to different places in the state.
"It's not boring. Every day's different."
Sgt O'Meara was nominated by one of his peers, a communications room operator, for "displaying exceptional professionalism in his duties".
"He is ethical, organised and always willing to assist colleagues with inquiries," the nomination read.
The Rotary Police Officer of the Year Awards recognise outstanding police officers who display very high standards of professionalism.
In addition, the annual awards will name a community police officer of the year and hand out a peer award.
The awards dinner for the Rotary Police Officer of the Year will be held on Friday, March 1.

Diaspora co-founder Ilya Zhitomirskiy dies at 22
San Francisco: Ilya Zhitomirskiy, one of the founders of the social networking site Diaspora, died at the age of 22.
Nina Fiore, executive secretary in the San Francisco medical examiner`s office, confirmed to yesterday that Zhitomirskiy died in San Francisco. She would not say how or when he died.
Diaspora, an alternative to Facebook, was founded by four New York University students in 2010.
The site lets users keep control over their photos, videos and status updates while sharing them with friends.
Zhitomirskiy co-founded the website with Raphael Sofaer, Dan Grippi, and Max Salzber. The group raised more than USD 2,00,000 for the project by collecting contributions through the website Kickstarter.
According to Zhitomirskiy`s profile on Diaspora, he`s "super passionate about building a world of hacker spaces, maker culture, sharing, cycling, and life satisfaction."
In a September 2010 interview with New York Magazine, Zhitomirskiy said he wanted social network users to migrate towebsites that were more transparent about privacy policies.
Zhitomirskiy said he and his co-founders didn`t set out to make money when they created Diaspora but to instead provide an "open platform" for users.
"There`s something deeper than making money off stuff," Zhitomirskiy said. "Being a part of creating stuff for the universe is awesome."

PRLog - May 4, 2011 - LOS ANGELES -- The intervention can be disastrous if insufficient thought is given to the effects of development, especially its long-term consequences on the environment. The blend between man and nature will not be harmonius, but there will be imbalance or contradiction instead. In the long-run the total environment is bound to deteriorate. This is what ecology is all about- the inter-relationship between living and non-living things and their habitat.
With the coming of industrial revolution we witnessed the horrifying effects of population explosion and sudden growth of concrete jungles with abuse and disregard to nature. And unfortunately, we lost the concept of whole ecosystem when man was one with nature. Today, man's intervention with nature has caused havoc in the environment often upsetting the delicate ecological balance beyond redemption and posing a great danger to the mankind itself.
Remember what Poet John Ruskin says " Man in his ignorance crushes natural sublimity and in return nature crushes human beings." We should therefore be conservers and not destroyers of the mother nature and the planet. Good environment is essential for the well-being of the people, for they in turn will collectively contribute to the well-being of the state. It is comparatively recent that the growing awareness to maintain ecological balance and prevent further environmental pollution.
When man builds, he must take both nature and society into account. With this concept – the ecological approach to landscape architecture-
Michael Altman, publisher of HomedesignLA.com says "if one can step for a moment into an outdoor space, no matter how small and see the sky and the smell of the earth, trees and flowers, then the vast scale and density of urban life can prevail", He argues that landscape preservation trails way behind architectural preservation, and much more attention should be paid to these spaces in Los Angeles.

Recent Catskills reviews
"This was perhaps the nicest VRBO I've ever rented from. Beautiful, cozy, secluded, warm and stunningly picturesque. Everything was in perfect working order, and meticulously maintained. The house is a best suited for a group of 6, but we easily made it work with a group of 8 (with one couple sleeping on an airbed). We rented in the late fall, but I'm excited to rent again in Summer (and perhaps Winter too)."Guest: Craig H Date of Stay: October 2014 Review Submitted: November 23, 2014View listing
"I am very happy and plan on going back. Very nice, clean and fun place to stay. Private entry is nice so I could come and go as I wish. Close by many attractions in the Catskills. Highly recommend !!!"Guest: Matt Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: August 9, 2014View listing
"We had the best vacation and this was the perfect place to come home to after a tiring day of hiking and biking. This spacious home has lots of charm and character. The beds are super comfortable and there are TV's in all the rooms which was great for late night relaxing. The front porch was perfect for evening gatherings and we all loved the tree swing, the teens and adults! Marty truly thought of everything, as this house has all the comforts of home. The location was awesome as well, so many great trails and small towns to explore, all very nearby. Marty was also wonderful to interact with, she is truly the perfect hostess. We will certainly be returning to the area and will stay here again for another memorable vacation!"Guest: Marlo H. Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: July 21, 2015View listing

Please, it would be very kind and more efficient if Cortana had Portuguese language speak recognition. (Brazil) Thank you so much and keep up the good work!
Since changing the region and language to US English didn't do the trick on my HTC 8X and many others I was thinking why not release Cortana for more regions so that we could try it also? :) Thank you.
Please , can you add the italian support for Cortana in the next update? In Europe our is one of the markets in which Windows Phone goes better

If it's impossible to make it able to recognize the Hungarian language, then please just make is avaliable in there, beacuse almost everybody could use it in English.
Thank you very much!
We help cortana in indonesian language.
because we people can't understand speaking English.
please cortana supoort in language indonesian.

There have been some rumors going around that Cortana will be released in the US only in April when 8.1 is unveiled.
Please consider releasing worldwide, rather than exclusive to the US.
You have many more customers worldwide than in the US alone. Us as users would really like to be able to tinker as soon as we can, mainly because we're all geeks.
There are some benefits for you as a company, as it allows for greater data collection about how users are using it, and more data = ability to create a greater product.
Collecting data from US only users is not very statistically equal anyway.
Thanks, please continue to bring us awesome features and software updates.
We continue to extend Cortana to other geographies and languages … with the latest update it will now be available in the UK and China, with regional support for Canada, Australia and India.
Also, if you have specific suggestions for the Cortana software team, be sure to check out the Cortana Suggestion Box at:

We arrived to late in the day to go on a guided tour but we did tour the grounds which are beautiful. The trees are well marked with all the dignitaries who have visited Canada and planted trees on the grounds. People such as Nelson Mandela, Princess Diana and JFK. We did not even know of this tradition. Very peaceful.
Being from the United States it was a fun history lesson when we took a guided tour of historic Rideau Hall in Ottawa. The gardens are beautiful and we learned that every head of state that has visited Rideau Hall has planted a tree on the grounds. The grounds are truly an urban oasis , modelled on the style of...
Huge domain. Lots of trees. Extensive rose garden. Impressive building which is well worth the inside visit. Very nice hostesses and guides during the summer holidays.
The park is nice and the tourist guides were very friendly. It is a nice stroll, but not at midday, where it is rather hot. A morning stroll is better.
I visited this place on a recent trip to Ottawa and loved it. I think it was one of my favourite tours. The inside of home was breath-taking, as was the property surrounding it. Everyone was also very friendly and helpful to tourists. I recommend this if you're in Ottawa!
Nice tour with Danika! It was nice to see all the rooms with a good description. We went on Canada Day and were the only ones in the tour
Beautiful spot to dine! Stunning decor! We loved every minute of our evening with friends. A wonderful spot for couples..
This was a stop on the hop on hop off tour. I would recommend a stop here as the grounds are well kept and relaxing. We also managed to get a tour of the hall of the governor general house. Its a beautiful property with a bit of a slower pace from the rest of the tour. There is a...
The grounds are ok, keep an eye out for the trees planted by famous people. Inside the building the art history and decor are the best you can find in Ottawa. My favourite room was the Tent Room. Pay attention to all the small details in each room as the guides share a lot of really interesting facts.
A nice walk in an expansive estate that kind of makes being Canadian special. The residence humanizes the Governors General through the years.
The guides are pleasant, friendly, fluently bilingual and very knowledgeable.

Pirate with Treasure Chest Christmas Ornament
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Arrrrrrgh! Ahoy, matey! This pirate has scored some booty with this treasure chest loaded with gold dubloons and sparkling jewels. His pirate hat has the mark of a pirate with a pair of crossed bones and his red bandana brings him notoriety on the seven seas. This treasured ornament should not be buried deep within the branches of the tree! This hand-crafted wood ornament will be a favorite for your little buccaneer who will hang him with pride as he dreams of piracy and pirate codes in which justice was served through walking the plank, for anyone who dares to fight his band of pirates. But beware of the Flying Dutchman or Captain Blackbeard.

Rhodri Marsden's Interesting Objects: Remington No 1

* Christopher Sholes and Carlos Glidden didn't actually invent the typewriter. John Pratt's 'Pterotype' provided much of the inspiration for the two men, a Wisconsin printer and inventor respectively. But the Remington No 1, also known as the Sholes & Glidden, was the first typewriter to achieve any kind of commercial viability. It went on sale this week in 1874.
* Neither made a fortune from it. A patent had been awarded to their 'Type-Writer' six years earlier, but Glidden lost interest, and Sholes was bought out by entrepreneur James Densmore for $12,000. Densmore drove the project thereafter; he ended up making a cool $1.5m.
* Densmore asked his son-in-law to come up with a keyboard layout that would stop the machine jamming during normal operation (QWE.TY) and convinced arms company E Remington & Sons (then experiencing a post-Civil War lull in business) to manufacture it. Remington reckoned the R should go where the full stop was, and QWERTY was born.
* There wasn't much enthusiasm for the CAPITAL LETTERS ONLY machine; just 400 were bought in the first six months. One recipient was Mark Twain, who stopped using it to write letters as he was fed up with having to explain how he'd done it in subsequent letters. "I don't want people to know that I own the curiosity-breeding little joker," he wrote.
* Shown at The Centennial International Exhibition of 1876 in Philadelphia, it was outgunned by Alexander Graham Bell's telephone and Heinz's new tomato ketchup. It wasn't until the launch of the Remington No 2 (with lower-case letters) that the typewriter began to hit its stride.
* At the time of writing, there's a Remington No 1 available on eBay for $29,900. It doesn't work.

A 24-year-old college student has accused longtime Elmo puppeteer Kevin Clash of sexually abusing him when he was 15.
A lawsuit filed Tuesday (Wednesday NZ time) in New York by Cecil Singleton accuses Clash of engaging in sexual behaviour with him over a two-week period while he was under-age. Singleton said they met on a gay chat line.
At a news conference, Singleton said he had no idea at the time what Clash did for a living.
Earlier on Tuesday, Clash resigned from Sesame Street after 28 years, after denying an allegation that he had sex with another underage boy. He cited personal matters but did not address the new allegations.
Singleton's lawyer, Jeff Herman, said he had been contacted by two other potential victims and expected additional legal action.
In its statement, Sesame Workshop said "the controversy surrounding Kevin's personal life has become a distraction that none of us want," leading Clash to conclude "that he can no longer be effective in his job."
"This is a sad day for Sesame Street," the company said.
In a statement of his own, Clash said "personal matters have diverted attention away from the important work Sesame Street is doing and I cannot allow it to go on any longer. I am deeply sorry to be leaving and am looking forward to resolving these personal matters privately."
As the announcement was made, a lawsuit was being filed in federal court in New York. It alleges that Singleton, now an adult, was first persuaded by Clash to meet for sexual encounters at the age of 15.
The lawsuit seeks damages in excess of US$5 million. The New York-based Sesame Workshop, which produces Sesame Street, had no comment on the lawsuit.
Clash, who had been on Sesame Street for 28 years, created the high-pitched voice and child-like persona for Elmo, a furry, red Muppet that became one of the most popular characters on the show and one of the company's most lucrative properties.
Clash's exit followed a tumultuous week that began on November 12 with a statement from the company that Clash had requested a leave of absence following the charge by a man in his early 20s that he had had a relationship with Clash when he was 16.
Clash denied the charge from that man, who has not been publicly identified, calling it "false and defamatory."
Clash, the 52-year-old divorced father of a grown daughter, acknowledged that he is gay in that statement.
Sesame Workshop, which said it was first contacted in June by that accuser, said it had launched an investigation that included meeting with the accuser twice. Its investigation found the charge of underage conduct to be unsubstantiated.
The next day Clash's accuser recanted his charge, describing his sexual relationship with Clash as adult and consensual. Clash responded that he was "relieved that this painful allegation has been put to rest."
It was in the mid-1980s that Clash, a young puppeteer at "Sesame Street," was assigned a little-used puppet now known as Elmo and turned him into a star.
Besides his heavy presence on Sesame Street, Elmo has been a major moneymaker for Sesame Workshop. Elmo toys probably account for one-half to two-thirds of the US$75 million in annual sales the Sesame Street toy line generates for toy maker Hasbro, which took over the Sesame Street license in 2010, estimates BMO Capital Markets analyst Gerrick Johnson.
Meanwhile, Clash became somewhat of a star himself. In 2006, he published an autobiography, "My Life as a Furry Red Monster," and was the subject of the 2011 documentary "Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey."
In addition to his marquee role as Elmo, Clash served as the show's senior Muppet coordinator and Muppet captain. He won 23 daytime Emmy awards and one prime-time Emmy.
Though it remained unclear who might take over performing as Elmo, other Sesame Street puppeteers have been trained to serve as his stand-in, Sesame Workshop said.
"Elmo is bigger than any one person," the company said last week.

As the only daily independent paper which supports the working people of Britain against the attacks being made on them and their children by this undemocratic, callous government, the Morning Star must choose an editor who supports socialist principles and not one who receives the plaudits of the British capitalist press.
What strange bedfellows does John Haylett have within the Independent on Sunday to say he "is the man to lead the Morning Star out of ghetto politics"? As the great Labour leader, Keir Hardie, said: "When I am lauded by the British press, I know that I am on the wrong path."

Justin Bieber's Latest 'Believe' Promo Is a Bummer (Video)
The singer smiles through the pain in his new film, due out Christmas Day.
Justin Bieber's life is not as charmed as one might think.
The singer laments about smiling through his pain as a musician -- putting on shows for millions of screaming girls while his life behind the scenes may be crumbling -- in the latest promo for his upcoming doc Believe.

"You always gotta keep a smile on your face through all the negativity," he says. "You gotta hide your emotions sometimes, especially for me going onstage."
In what appears to be a reference to ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez, Bieber says: "I could be going through a big argument and I'm like, 'I'm about to go onstage right now.' And we're yelling, and then I gotta rise up on the toaster."
"It's like, I'm upset. I don't want to have to smile and put on a happy [face]," he continues, "but sometimes you just gotta suck it up and that's just one of the things you gotta deal with being in this position, in this world, in this industry."
