Long distance
Okay so I've been going out with my girlfriend for over a year now. By the time she moves back home to SoCal we'll have been together for 1.5 years. I live in NorCal and we both went to school in NorCal.
We've already discussed what will happen to us and although I want to try, I don't see our relationship going anywhere. She has strict parents and even if I did go down and visit she said she can't guarantee she would be able to see me. I don't know what I should do. No I don't have any plans to move to SoCal because I'm working right now. My friend (old college roommate) has asked me to move to SoCal once he graduates from Grad school. Which although I want to, I know the only reason I would want to move is for my gf.
Do you think its pointless to hope? I don't want to give up but as I said is there a point to see her once ever 2 months?
Long distance relationships are hard. You may feel paranoid, depressed, and lonely.
However, relationships that can withstand it are strong. I don't think it's pointless to hope. Lots of communication helps, in my opinion. Obviously, during the times you do meet, make the most out of it, make her know you cherish being with her. That is, if you two really have strong feelings for each other.
I'm sorta going through the same thing right now. I know if I had the chance to move down to see him, I'd take it immediately. Unfortunately, I'm the one with strict parents and no car.
Hey Shnao thanks for the reply. How long have you and your boyfriend(?) been going out? (I assume its a boy since you said him).
I knew the time would come when my gf and I would move away from each other. We kind of thought about it even when we were still at school, but never gave up much thought until she started her final year. She was suppose to stay for another couple of years for grad school but she decided she just wants to graduate and work and now its too late to think about grad school.
I know I'll cherish all the moments when I'm with her. Planning to visit her every week until the end of school and just make the most of our time.
Also, although I would want to move down for her, I don't think that would be the smartest thing to do. I always told my friends who wanted to move away for their gf/bf that they were stupid. If I did the same thing it would be the same. I always tell people that, you don't know where your life will end up and if you're meant to be you are. If I did move away from home, I don't think it would be for another couple of years.
No prob, man. Well, that's not something I feel like talking about at the moment, hope you understand.
I agree though, it's not a wise idea. Moving to her would mean leaving your family, your friends, everything important to you. That's really sweet of you though, hope you guys have a good time together while you can.
yeah i understand. thanks for the replies! hope you enjoy your time with him too and i'll try to make the most of my time.
Yeah, it's best to relax and enjoy it for as long as it lasts, like he said. I've been in this kind of situation countless times. Sometimes I've ended it just to avoid getting my hopes up and have them crushed, too. But most of the time, I just let it play through to the end. I've never really had one work out, but I know that there are people who CAN make it work. My friends, Nessa and Kirk, had a long-distance relationship when they were teenagers and to my knowledge, they never really broke up. Might've had a break occasionally, but now they're married and have kids. So yeah, it can be done and any lasting relationship is a beautiful thing.
My friend in Massachusetts is dating a guy in Florida, been about 8 months. They visit each other once every few months. They seem perfectly fine to me. It costs about 200 dollars round trip to visit each other, but they do it anyway.
It still goes to show the lengths some people go. Don't need to make it any lesser of value just because it hasn't been that long.
Would you go every month if it cost about 200 dollars a trip and you're both college students?
If she's worth it, you'll do it.
I've broken up with a guy before because I moved to a different city, and it takes 3 hours to see each other. 3 hours is normally not a big deal for most people, but we were busy and apparently we didn't like each other enough (despite a year of dating) to spend that much time driving through traffic.
On the other hand, I have a friend who had just gotten married to her long-distance bf. She lives in the US, and he lives in the Scandinavian region. That's verrry far. They made it through 5 years on LDR before getting married. Maybe because the relationship is worth the fight.
Like I said, if it's worth it, you'll do whatever it takes.
I know exactly how it is, I have done the distance thing for 2 years now.
My partner lived in Melbourne, Aus originally and then his mother forced him to move to California with her (he grew up there and moved back here when he was 16). We thought it was worth the fight and now he finally has a job and is working hard to come back here to Australia and we can continue things how they were before he moved.
It is hard, but we do heaps of things to try and make it fresh and exciting.
We watch heaps of videos and movies on youtube + skype in sync and play games on iPods and iPhones. He's not into mmo (shame) but we are still happy and have heaps of time to devote to our everyday lives and still can feel as close as we can be!
If you love her & want to see her then it isn't pointless at all to see each other, even if you can't meet up very often. Me and my boyfriend had to pay 250$ to see each other. We decided it would be best if he paid half it and I would pay the other half, we were really poor at the time but it worked out wonderfully. Like Shnao said, relationships that withsrand long distance are strong.

ShutterStock / spaxiaxThe answer to the question, "Which coding language should I learn first?" is widely debated and depends mostly on what you want to do with your code. If you're looking to build websites from scratch and develop a strong base knowledge of the concepts of coding so you can go on to become fluent in other languages, HTML5 and CSS3 are worthwhile places to begin.
These languages are two essential building blocks of the internet. HTML is a markup language used for developing web pages, while CSS is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in markup languages like HTML. Together, they form many of the webpages you browse every day.
If you are new to coding but eager to learn, Udemy is offering a class titled "Web Design for Beginners: Real World Coding in HTML & CSS."
The class is aimed at total beginners, so don't fret if you have no experience starting off. Instructor Brad Schiff breaks down his actions in a way that is easy for anyone to follow. By the end of the course, students will have a grasp on coding concepts and be able to build their own websites with customized layouts and responsive designs.
Currently, the course is being offered for 30% off with the promo code "JUNEINSIDER," a solid discount off its usual list price of $25. The course has more than 4,700 students enrolled and a rating of 4.7/5 stars, evidence that previous students feel they have gotten their money's worth. If you want to get involved in the world of web development, this class a good first step.

When it's too nice to nap indoors, I take an old knotted comforter to the back edge of the garden, near tomato leaves I crush for a last whiff of summer. Crickets chorus round me and the combine's racket turns to a purr the barn cats pick up, settling near my head. It's then I look up at the cosmos, struck by their petals, mandarin orange against blue sky. The underside shines radiant as monarch wings or the stained glassof sun through tissue paper. Restingby County Road N 400 W, I forgetlaundry on the line, supper to fix. For hours I've been napping. Now I am awake.
Eve got off the bus in tears the day her third grade teacherscolded her for using a hankie. "It's not sanitary," she said.Miss Pauley had no notion of what a handkerchief means to us:reusable tissue, wash cloth, gripper of lids, wiper of smudgyglasses, emergency bandage, keepsake we carry to the grave.Peekaboo with a hankie triggered Eve's first laugh, and later shesat through sermons watching Grandma Yoder fold a flat squareinto a butterfly or mouse. Now Eve does that for her sisterand knots Ruth's Sunday pennies in a corner like a hobo's sack.She irons and stacks all the hankies in our drawersand brings a bandanna drenched with cold water to her dadwho ties it round his neck. Last Christmas she gave mea set of four lacy kerchiefs embroidered by her own hand,each with my initials and a leaf or flower to signify the season.Straight from a city college, Miss Pauley could only countthe virtues of a Kleenex. "Like a lot of things, hankiesgrow softer as they age," I said, using one to wipe Eve's tears.
Everyone laughedwhen it arrived in a legal-sizedenvelope and I showed themthe ad: "For 19.99, watch itreach your roofline in a year."Just as that stick, plainas a toothpick, unfurled a leafPete clipped itwith the mower. That's it,I thought, but it grew backabove the red petuniasI added 'round its base.We could use a miracle here,with the cows goneand the house in reversemortgage. But when itspouted slender brancheswith narrow leaveseven the Schwan Manwho measured each weeklost interest. I ponderthe name Salix babylonicaand how merchantstraded sprigs of those treesalong the Silk Road. Alreadyit weeps like a woman,I write in my diary. Alreadymy neighbors dismiss itas a dirty tree.
When Ruth cries out, terrifiedby what stalks the root cellaror chases her toward a cliff,we sing our favorite chorus:Vegetables grow in my garden,God sends the rain,Vegetables grow in my garden,God sends the sun.With each verse, we substitutesomething new: carrots, potatoes,rutabagas, coconuts. Like sheepthat leap a fence, we never stopto reconsider: sunflowers,snapdragons, poinsettia, burrthistle. Rabbits wriggle inand soon the gate swings openfor rhinoceros and pythons . . .till we make room for everythingunder the sun, under the rain,in the gardenwhere Ruth can fall asleep.

Plan your Beijing tours? Visiting the Forbidden City ( The Palace Museum ) is no doubt one of your travel highlights in Beijing.
Before starting your visit, it is quite helpful for you to grab some basic travel tips for visiting the Forbidden City.
Tip # 01: Try to Avoid Weekends or Chinese Holidays
The Forbidden City is a must see highlight for every first time visitor to Beijing. Be prepared for crowds of people like you visiting this complex.
Try to avoid visiting the Forbidden City on weekends or public holidays. On these tourist peak days, the hoards of people are so thick that you could hardly see anything at all.Many tour groups ( most domestic ones) seem to aggregate and move about with their whistles, banners, and colored caps. In many cases, you have to elbow your way to see and take pictures.
We also recommend you come here either early in the morning or in the later afternoon to beat the crowds, enjoy the Forbidden City as it once was before the masses turn up and ruin your photo opportunity's.
Below are the opening times for scheduling your visit.Open daily all year except on Monday.
Monday is closed.
Note: Monday is still open during Chinese Public Holidays
April 1st – October 31 ( 8:30 – 17:00 )
Last Entry at 16:10
Tickets sold until 16:00
Entrance ticket:RMB 60
November 1st – March 31 (8:30 – 16:30)
Last Entry at 15:40
Tickets sold until 15:30
Entrance Ticket: RMB 40
There are some exhibits within the complex that require additional tickets to access such as the Treasure Gallery and the Clock and Watch Gallery.
Treasure Gallery : RMB 10;
Clock and Watch Gallery: RMB 10
Free of charge for children under 1.2 meters, each required to be escorted by an adult.
Tip # 02: Choose the Right Entrance
There are two entrances to the Forbidden City – the southern gate ( Meridian Gate – Wumen) and northern gate(Gate of Divine – Shenwu Men). The southern gate is linked to Tiananmen Square to the south.
You have to enter Forbidden City from its southern gate and exit from its northern gate, which is officially set as a one-way south to north travel route.
Below is the admission policy for planning your budget:
The Museum accepts Master Card, Visa, and PayUnion cards for ticket purchase.
Forbidden City entrance fees:
April 1st – October 31st : 60 yuan
November 1st – March 31st : 40 yuan
1. Children under 120 cm in height are free of charge.
2. Special 20 yuan tickets are available for China's elementary, middle school, and university students (including foreign students studying in Chinese universities) with valid student I.D. or certified letter from school administrator (including students from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, excluding graduate and adult education students).
Enter Forbidden City through its Southern gate ( Meridian Gate – Wumen)
Tip # 03 View the Turrets of Forbidden City and its surrounding moat.
One primary thing that is often missed is visiting the magnificent turrets of Forbidden City and its surrounding moat. There are four beautiful turrets of the same structure on the four corners of Forbidden City.
Each turret tower has nine griders, eighteen columns and 72 ridges. The two turrets on the northeast and northwest corners offer the best photo opportunity.
The turret are inaccessible to visitors. People usually finish their visit to Forbidden and exit from its north gate. Then turn either right for the northeast turret tower or left for the northwest turret tower outside Forbidden City.
Tip # 04: Move up to Jingshan Park ( A Panoramic View of Forbidden City)
Jingshan Park is not to be missed, a visit during your tour in Beijing. Jingshan just sits across the north gate of Forbidden City. After finishing your visit of Forbidden City from south to north, you exit from Forbidden City's north gate.
Raising your head, you will find a pavilion with three layered eaves perched on a hill. The hill is called Jingshan Hill ( Coal Hill or prospect Hill). Jingshan Hill is an ideal place to have a panoramic view of Forbidden City and Beijing as whole.
Tip # 05: Choose Your Right Transportation
Visitors are highly recommended to use Beijing Transportation – bus, subway and taxi. Please note that taxis are not allowed to stop either at the southern gate or northern gate.
By Bus:
For the southern gate ( Wu men), take bus No.1, 10, 120, 126, 2, 20, 37, 4, 52, 59, 728, 802, or Te 1, to "Tian'an Men East" (Tian'an men dong). Or take bus No. 1, 10, 22, 37, 4, 5, 52, 728, 802, or Te1, to "Tian'an men West" (Tian'an men xi).
For the nothern gate (Shenwu men), take bus No. 101, 103, 109, 111, 124, 810, 685, 814, 846, or Zhuan 1 (a shuttle bus traveling between Qianmen and The Palace Museum).
By Subway ( to south gate ):
Take Line 1 to Tian'an men East or "Tian'an men West" (Tian'an men xi).
There is no parking outside the two entrance gates of the Palace Museum. The following public parking lots are located in the vicinity of the Forbidden City:
*Outside the East Prosperity Gate (Donghua men)
*In the back street of Jingshan Park;
*In front of the Front Gate of Beihai Park
Visitors are encouraged to visit the Museum via public transportation.
The Transportation at the North Gate of Forbidden City is a bit chaos.
After their visit of Forbidden City and exit from its north gate, most of the visitors want to continue their day trips to other attractions or destinations in Beijing like Jinshan Park ( just opposite the north gate of Forbidden City), Wangfujing Street, Beijing Zoo, Summer Palace, Fragrance Hill, Temple of Heaven, Badaling Great Wall, Beijing Railway Station, Beijing West Railway Station, Beijing South Railway Station…
But some of them are totally bewildered by Jinshan Front Street in front of the north gate of Forbidden City, which is inaccessible and blocked by fences on both sides of the road.
And visitors are at a loss on how to take a bus, taxi or subway since there are no buses, no taxis and no subway lines by the north gate of Forbidden City.Please check How to Take a Bus or Taxi at the North Gate of Forbidden City for more information.
Taking a rickshaw at the north gate is a rip-off.
Don't ever take a Rickshaw at the north gate of Forbidden City unless you feel like getting lost and extorted.
So if you visit Forbidden City by getting to a wrong gate (north gate), don't use a local rickshaw to get back to the south gate, just walk to the right gate (south gate).
For the same reason, if you exit from the north gate after visiting Forbidden City, don't use a rickshaw for your next place.
Tip # 06: Well Schedule Your Visiting Time
The Forbidden City is huge, covering an area of 72 hectares. Normally you should cruise through in two or three hours.
Plan this together with Tiananmen Square, Jinshan Park or Beihai park. Please keep in mind that Tickets sold until 15:30(November 1st – March 31); Tickets sold until 16:00(April 01 – October).
Tip # 07: Hire a Legal Tour Guide or Audio Guides
The Forbidden City is much worth visiting, but unless you know the history very well, you should use a Beijing Tour Guides. You are not advised to use the tourist guides around the entrance. They are self-employed tour guides.
So, try to find a reliable travel agency for your tour guide services or the Recorded guide. The recorded audio guides: these are available for rent walking from south to north. There are numerous signs in English by each building. An actual book would probably better serve you if you want to understand what you are seeing.
Tip # 08: Dress for the Hot Weather
There are very few trees with little shade the Forbidden City. It is super hot during the summer. So if coming here in summer, be ready to bring an umbrella for sun protection, bottles of water, and comfy walking shoes. Check Beijing Climate for more information.
Tip # 9 Wear Comfortable Shoes
There are lots of outdoor areas so you can't do a lot of hiding from the sun or rain. Wear your most comfortable shoes.
It's a long walk! strollers and wheelchairs are available for free at the tourist guide service at both southern gate and the northern gate.
Tip # 10: Avoid Tour Vendors on the Street
There are some tour vendors at each entrance selling their excursions to the Great Wall. Just ignore all handouts that will be forced upon you. Especially bus tours.
They are all too good to be true, and you will be disappointed. See Top 10 Tourist Scams Beijing for more information.
Tip # 11: Be vigilant on Tea House Scam and Ticket Touts
A kind reminder that Tea House Scams and ticket touts could possibly pester you around Forbidden City area. Below is a trip report by a victim from Sri Lanka named Akalan.I wish I read this page 1 week earlier! I was a victim to the "Tea House" scam. The scammer, a lady was very clever. I came to the Tiananmen area and was going to buy the ticket to enter the forbidden city. A lady who was walking besides me casually said "Hello" and started a chat while walking.
In fact this was my 4th trip to China, but first trip to Beijing. Many a times many people, usually young ladies chatted with me and they helped me a lot. Even on the same day morning I went to the Great Wall and a young girl with good English walked with me. All those I met earlier were genuine people who just wanted to help a visitor to their country. Most of the time they did not even allow me to pay a bill, ticket price or taxi fare.
With that sort of experience, I had no suspicion on this woman. Still my priority was to get into the Forbidden city ASAP, as it was passed 3pm and I knew that the ticket sales would stop at 4 pm. This lady said that she would show me the "East gate" where I can enter without a long queue. Yes, there was a queue of people at the main entrance.
Simply followed her advice and she walked with me to "show" the entrance. On the way she said she is from Xi'An (a city I visited 1 month ago) and we had quite a good conversation on history, culture and languages. She also explained some history of the area.
She said her friends from another province are there and they will meet them in 10 min. If I can wait 10 min, they also can join me to go inside the Forbidden city.
While waiting for them, she suggested me to sit somewhere and have a tea or fruit juice. In fact after walking and climbing whole morning in Great Wall area, I was thirsty and wanted to sit and stretch my legs. So I agreed.
I tried to sit on some chairs laid outside, but she suggested to go inside – less noisy, less dust and air conditioned!
I picked a Chinese tea and the scam began! You know the rest. Yes, she split the bill, still I lost a few hundred! Worst thing was that she took me to a gate, assuring that I could enter from there, but obviously there were no ticket counters. I had to get to an electric car. The driver charged 20, instead of 2, as he sensed my urgency!
He actually did not take me to the ticket counters, instead, he stopped somewhere and a woman approached me. She was telling me that the ticket counters are closed and she would sell a ticket to me for 100 ! I did not want to let some one rip me off for 3rd time, within 15 min. Finally when I found the ticket counters, they were closed! So I missed the Forbidden City!
Tip # 12: Hail a Taxi on the Road
Please note that taxis are not allowed to stop either at the northern gate or south gate. Some people approaching you for taxi service after you finish your visit at the Forbidden City, may be black taxi drivers. Just avoid them and hail a taxi on the road.
Vehicle Drivers and Taxis are not allowed to stop at the northern gate (Shenwu men) according to the local traffic regulations, Visitors exiting from the northern gate need to walk further either east or west to hail a taxi or take a bus.

Matt Miller may be on the Biletnikoff preseason watch list for college football's best receiver, but he told us repeatedly that wins trump any individual honors.
The usually quiet Miller wasn't thrilled to be at media days, but was happy to talk about the improvements made over the summer.
Coaches have summer restrictions, but players can opt to run their practices, that's exactly what Miller and his roommate, Grant Hedrick, did.
"I think we have that goal to grasp more of the offense and I think that's where grant really stepped up. He really helped us script out plays and put in new stuff that we didn't run in spring ball. We got a head start and will grow on that once camp starts," said Miller.
Fall camp gets underway August 1, as the Broncos prepare for Ole Miss in the Chik-fil-A Kickoff in Atlanta on August 28.

Bad Handwriting
So uhh...this is kinda one of my personal problem for over 10 years now and I think I need help.
Anyways, I hate to write on paper or on anything why? cause my handwriting is like a freaking 6 year old wrote it. I can't even sign my own name due to the embarrassment of my signature being like a chicken scratch.
Is there any advice that can I can improve my handwriting .___.?
P.S: What I do not understand is that, How am I good in PC games but terrible at writing?
Do you know how to write in cursive?
Start from the basics, even if it's just writing letters over and over. Make sure you are holding your pen/pencil properly and practice, practice, practice. I would suggest working on print first if you just generally want to improve. Cursive letters work differently in the way they are written, so don't worry about that for now.
The joys of technology ruining our writing habits.
Do what Sandrie said. At the same time, don't use any electronic item when you take notes or want to jolt things down. Carry around a small notepad or notebook, depending on whether it's just an errand or class.
While doing that, pretend that you're writing this note for someone else. Kind of like when a TA takes notes for students who are absent. By doing that, you're disciplining yourself to practice writing each letter properly.
As for your signature, that requires you to know how to write cursive. No one's signature is perfect the first time. Mine was a mess 6~7 years ago. You'll eventually have to sit down and start scribbling your name in different ways to see which one you like the most and is the easiest for you to sign with.
I'm in the same boat as you, for the past few months I've been writing down notes or just writing a couple sentences I think up just for sake of writing.
My writing has improved because of this, as I too have been confined to a computer for a good 9 years and can't write or even print for shit.
How bad are we talking here? Are we talking literal six year-old's handwriting or it's just in general sloppy. I mean, in general as long as it's reasonably legible (you can easily make it out without any major difficulties) and you can write at a decent speed, you should be fine. If it's actually like a six year-old's handwriting, then you'll need help.
(I didn't know using electronic methods actually stunted your handwriting. My handwriting's always been a little messy, but I never would've attributed that to typing; I just never cared about having good handwriting.)
BUT the muscle memory you get from learning it helps a lot with getting your writing neater. When you're able to write in cursive, you'll start to connect your letters together even when writing in print. If done neatly of course, will definitely make your writing look much nicer.
If you're going for the more "well as long as I can read it, it's fine" kind of look, just keep practicing your alphabet. Also, look at how other people write neatly and figure out what's the difference between their nicer writing and your not-as-nice writing. Usually it's just a few letters here or there that have even the smallest difference but look really nice after you hammer it out.
Just write slowly Hugo, or slow and in all mini caps. That's the easiest way, that's what I do when I have to rush and write something. I only use cursive (not even most of the time) when I'm writing letters (ex. birthday, mother' s day, father' s day etc.) but I usually "draw" my writing? when it's for something special like that.. not sure if that makes sense. But slow is the keyword here!
If you're in a rush to take notes at college for example, and you don't use a laptop, then it doesn't matter if you write sloppy, as long as you can read it yourself. If it's for a project or paper and your teacher is making you write by hand, just get another piece of paper and write everything down. Then rewrite it slowly and neatly. Just take your time.
If we're only talking about signatures here though.. even though my handwriting was praised by my teachers/friends, my signature looks like CRAP. Q_Q And I'm not exaggerating. So they could be 2 completely different things.. I guess all you could do about your signature (which I've tried over and over haha) is to get a piece of paper and scribble away to practice & perfect it.
But like a lot of people pointed out, I'm sure practice would help a lot. I always take notes on paper, whatever it is, because I love writing by hand D:
Use a pen and write.
Here's a recent work I did for my Math course that I need to take over the summer.
I took at least 3 or 4 writing intensive courses which never helped my writing.
it's definitely not the prettiest, but it's still legible.
the only way u're gunna get any better is if u go back to the basics and start printing everyday in a notebook for practice.
other notable tips:
1. make a conscious effort to not mix in caps with lowercase in the words. i notice an inconsistency with ur choice of capitalization. stick with 1 type(all caps or the traditional way of writing) because that might ultimately help u "line" up the letters instead of them flying all over the paper.
2. summer is here so make sure u don't neglect writing. try to spend less time playing on the computer.
I'm inclined to believe what everyone else is saying and that you do need to consciously try to improve and practice improving. My handwriting has always been pretty consistent through my life, and although a bit shaky after not writing for a while, it quickly goes back to "normal" after a bit. It's like a learning how to ride a bike, you never forget how to...except you also don't get any better without actual effort.
You can always go back to those grade-school alphabet workbooks that have the dotted lines for you to trace over. :v
I'm an artist who draws at the very least 3 hours every day, and my handwriting is worse than yours. Don't sweat it.
Yeah that's not nearly as bad as you make it sound. But like Almora said, try not to mix capitals and lowercases.
Your hand-writing isn't the worst I've seen, by far. I actually see a lot of words in there with which I like, as far as the hand-writing is involved.
As pointed in the post above, try not to mix up your upper- and lower-case letters. It's nicer on the eyes when there a smooth flow as far as how the words look. If you want to write it all in caps, that's totally fine. A good example is when you wrote "numbers" and "decimals" in the middle; it looks very consistent and has a nice "flow" to it. In contrast, when you wrote "adding" at the top the letter "g" at the end kind of throws it off because there's such a large height difference compared to if the "g" were written a bit lower to the height of the "in."
Secondly, consider the spacing between letters. Try to keep it as consistent as you can. When you wrote "irrational numbers" in the middle, I had to re-read it a few times to make sure it wasn't supposed to be "I rrotional" or something. Also, when you wrote "imaginary numbers" there were quite a few spacing differences between the "g-i-n" and the "a-r-y."
TBH your handwriting looks like handwriting from someone who just doesn't write a lot, or a better example, when a teenager goes back to school and finally starts writing again after a long summer break of not writing.
I assume you don't write very much?
If that's the case, you just need to write more.

character stringA series of characters manipulated as a group. A character string differs from a name in that it does not represent anything -- a name stands for some other object.
A character string is often specified by enclosing the characters in single or double quotes. For example, WASHINGTON would be a name, but 'WASHINGTON' and "WASHINGTON" would be character strings.
The length of a character string is usually the number of characters in it. For example, the character string "WASHINGTON" has a length of 10 (the quote marks are not included). Some programs, however, mark the beginning or end of a character string with an invisible character, so the length might actually be one greater than the number of characters.

Blueberry - Great, smells lovely
I was really worried it would be too sickly smelling when I got it, but it actually turned out to be a delicious smell. I've been using it exclusively since I got it and absolutely love it. Only concern is that it doesn't come in a bigger bottle, as it doesn't last as long as a lot of other body washes.

Sibuan; a "Battleship Island"
Sibuan is one of the smallest islands in the whole bay but it is very popular for swimmers and snorkelers. Sibuan Island, also called "Battleship Island" for its shiluette that much assembles a WW2 battleship, is located about 30 minutes by speed boat from Semporna. Only Sibuan Island got a gentle falling, white sandy beach that is perfect for swimmers and non swimmers alike, someone can play in the shallows without being worried about stepping on any sharp coral.
Sibuan island is inhabited by native fishers that live eating fishes and drinking boiled sea water. Nobody else could live there without fruits, drink, bar, hotels, market...(etc..) and with a burning sun on the head. Only 4 fisher families survive and to reproduce on Sibuan (there are 4 family with totaly more than 20 children!!!). Moreover the families live 2 on the island, 1 on a sort of boat house and 1 on a palafitte. In Sibuan you could live an ancestral experience with unique feelings. Moreover Sibuan island is also a quite interesting snorkelling spot. In particular you can find there the rare mandarin fishes.
I recommend to go to Sibuan island from Semporna and plain everything with Scuba Junkie a scuba dive center runs by a group of young britain divers. I recommend Scuba Junkie because other diving centers used to not go to Sibuan.

Ultimate blunder
I can only hope that voters will remember four years from now the ineptitude of an administration led by Mayor Boy Blunder. Remember the corporate golf outings, remember taking the bodyguard to Detroit and remember being MIA recently -- other than for a few photo-ops answering 311 calls and riding with the National Guard, promising if people in the city needed help that emergency services would get to them. Which brings us to the most inexcusable offense of leaving a Hazelwood man waiting 30 hours for emergency responders to get to him and the man ultimately passing away.
It's time for you to go, Boy Blunder, and time for Pittsburghers to do their homework this next election cycle and send this mayor on permanent vacation. Unfortunately, we have about four more mayoral birthdays to party through till that glorious day arrives.
Perhaps then we can see true leadership on Grant Street with a mayor who can respond to reporters' inquiries without having a public meltdown.

I have a C trumpet that somebody made from a Couesnon Renault. I think it plays surprisingly decent, I just evaluated it against a Benge 3C I bought to replace it. The main failing of the Q is that you can easily saturate it volume-wise. The intonation was not bad otherwise. (It is my intention to sell the Q at some point.)
Update! I have cut down all of the male slides now, and they turned out well and everything fits smoothly back in to the instrument!
Now I have to cut the female slides and move the braces around. The latter will surely be the hardest part.
Sounds interesting. I'm curious to see how it works out!

I thought I would try this thread instead of starting a new one because I think it is related. I recently saw something somewhere about a C cornet. I have to say I don't think I ever heard of a C cornet so I did some more research and I did find several references to C cornets but not near as many as C trumpets. Is there any particular reason one does not find C cornets? Do they not make a good horn or candidate for a conversion? I am thinking about doing one just because you don't hear of them much.
Any thoughts?

If you don't know where you are going it doesn't matter how you get there.
They're there, but like the Eb cornet, they are more of a "specialty" instrument, so you won't see many for sale.

This weekend I intend to unsolder the braces and cut down the female slides. Anyone wish to donate some pointers for this operation? I.e controlling the heat, removing the braces, using the dremmel tool, etc
Thank you everyone for your interest and help so far!

First Other Shoe Drops in DFW Bathroom Peeper Case
In news that further confirms something you knew all along -- that fast food restaurant restrooms are just the worst -- Andrew Crawford Boden, the Irving man arrested for allegedly hiding a camera in a Grapevine Braum's restroom, has been arrested again.
After the Braum's camera was found on May 23, witnesses identified Boden from police-released selfies recovered from the camera, according to the warrant for the Grapevine incident. When police talked to Boden at his home, an Irving Candlewood Suites, he confirmed placing the Braum's camera, and said he had placed more cameras throughout the area and that he checked the photos taken by those cameras on his computer at work.
Two of those mystery cameras -- which are made to look like electrical outlets -- were found in an Irving Starbucks in February and an Irving Corner Bakery in August.
Boden turned himself in earlier today after Irving police issued a warrant for his arrest, according to The Dallas Morning News. He remains in Irving city jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.
Both Irving and Grapevine police warn that there may still be more cameras out there, so you'd be advised to eye any odd-looking appliances or fixtures with suspicion.

"We also want to thank Coach Williams for the way in which he has held the team together over the early stages of this season despite not having two veteran players and for the level of care and concern he has for the young men on his team," says Cunningham. "We are glad that Leslie McDonald was reinstated and look forward to watching his Tar Heel teammates and him compete the rest of this season."
Hairston scored 707 points and made 127 three-pointers in 71 games as a Tar Heel. Last year, he led UNC in scoring at 14.6 points per game and connected on 89 threes, the second-most in Carolina single-season history.
"I am extremely disappointed for P.J., his family and our team as he will no longer be playing basketball at North Carolina," says head coach Roy Williams. "P.J. made mistakes and I was very disappointed by his actions and now he is suffering the very difficult consequences. He is not a bad kid; he just made some mistakes.
"Since summer, P.J. has been outstanding with our basketball program and with his schoolwork. He went through an extremely intense conditioning program with flying colors. He has been called a 'perfect teammate' by one of our other players. He has dominated our practices and at times has been as good as any perimeter player I have ever coached, giving great effort to help our team. He cares deeply about Carolina and the basketball program.
"P.J. has learned from this experience and will continue to grow as a player and adult. I will support him and help him as much as I possibly can as he enters this next phase of his life and basketball career."
"We all wish this had turned out differently for P.J. and the University," says Cunningham. "We first learned of this situation back in the summer and getting to this point took a great deal of time because the University, the NCAA and P.J.'s family took great care to learn as many of the facts as were possible to learn. I know everyone, from P.J. and his family, to the basketball team, our fans and the media, wanted this process to play out faster than it did. However, it took the time that was necessary and ultimately came to this difficult conclusion."
P.J. Hairston Family Statement
"We are displeased with the University of North Carolina's decision not to submit the necessary paperwork to the NCAA requesting to have P.J. reinstated. This process has been long, and for to end without having a final decision from the governing body is a shame. Ultimately this affects P.J., and his eligibility to play Division 1 colligate basketball for the remainder of this season, as well as next season.
"Despite our disappointment, we wish the team continued success.
"P.J. will be making an announcement about his future plans within the next few weeks. For now, we respectfully ask the media to refrain from contacting us, so that they can enjoy a peaceful holiday season at home."

Congressman Hopes to Protect Lawmakers With Piece of Paper After Arizona Shooting
One of the many misguided reactions to automatically spring from Saturday's shooting tragedy in Arizona -- where six people were killed and Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was horribly wounded -- belongs to Rep. Bob Brady of Pennsylvania, whose first move was to grab some spotlight for himself by proposing a dumb law. Brady wants to make it a federal crime "to threaten or incite violence against a member of Congress or a federal official," pointing toward Sarah Palin's much-discussed "crosshairs" map (pictured), which targeted Giffords' district in the 2010 midterm elections. Yes, violent rhetoric can be dangerous, and more often disgusting, but Brady is being selfish, alarmist and anti-democratic.
Brady told the New York Times that, "You can't threaten the president with a bullseye or a crosshair." He continued: "This is not a wakeup call. This is a major alarm going off. We need to be more civil with each other. We need to tone down this rhetoric."
Indeed, but not with laws that limit free speech. That's not the answer.
Jack Shafer, writing in Slate, comes out in support of "inflamed rhetoric":
For as long as I've been alive, crosshairs and bull's-eyes have been an accepted part of the graphical lexicon when it comes to political debates. Such "inflammatory" words as targeting, attacking, destroying, blasting, crushing, burying, knee-capping, and others have similarly guided political thought and action. Not once have the use of these images or words tempted me or anybody else I know to kill. I've listened to, read--and even written!--vicious attacks on government without reaching for my gun. I've even gotten angry, for goodness' sake, without coming close to assassinating a politician or a judge.

Shafer argues that American political culture is "almost devoid of genuine violence outside of a few scuffles and busted lips now and again," and that only crazy outliers take the leap from words to actions when it comes to violence. But that doesn't mean Sarah Palin hasn't acted irresponsibly. In fact, her people have also lied.
Speaking with radio host Tammy Bruce, Palin's aide Rebecca Mansour said that the crosshairs on the map were merely "a surveyor's symbol" like "you see on maps." This, of course, in direct opposition to Palin's tweets on the matter, urging her followers to "don't retreat, instead - RELOAD!" Later, she wrote, "remember months ago 'bullseye' icon used 2 target the 20 Obamacare-lovin' incumbent seats?"
Everyone knows those crosshairs were meant to be guns, Mansour included, despite her flimsy spin. But as Slate's Dave Weigel writes, it's accepted that "while political pundits and consultants might use war and gun metaphors to talk about politics, politicians stay away from them." It's a matter of respect, of decency and of recognizing your influence -- not because every follower is a potential psychopath, but because one might be. But the answer isn't anti-speech laws, it's common sense.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Just when you wanted to question Jerry Jones' ability to judge talent, Andre Holmes had his breakout performance.
OK, that certainly won't quiet the critics of the only general manager in the NFL with guaranteed job security, especially since it came at the Dallas Cowboys' expense.
Holmes, a receiver who was Jones' "pet cat" when he was on the Cowboys' practice squad, caught seven passes for 136 yards in Oakland's 31-24 loss to the Cowboys. To put that in perspective, Holmes had five catches for 76 yards in his career entering Thursday's game.
"That was the practice squad Andre we were counting on the following year," Jones said. "We've seen him do that and have seen it a lot and a matter of fact, Tony [Romo] as the quarterback, was talking about, 'Man, we've got a receiver who is just outstanding and he's probably going to be one who can help us.' But when we got him out there and got him in the group, we didn't see that. I guess we were just a little impatient, but he sure could get it."
The Cowboys hoped Holmes could seize the third receiver role last season, but he had a disappointing training camp and caught only two passes for 11 yards before being released in November.
"If I had a calendar, I checked [this day] because I wanted to come here and play well in front of a team I had played for," Holmes said. "It just sucks that we didn't get the win."

Does this describe you?
If so, you sound like a sensitive introvert.
Do you tend to see the best in people, and do they respond positively when you treat them as their better selves?
Do other people thrive on what you alone seem to provide them?
Will you do anything in your power to protect, maintain, and deepen your most important relationships?
Have acquaintances and even strangers often sought you out as their confidant and sounding board?
Do you have deep, private feelings that you rarely share with others?
Do you grant your complete trust to others more slowly than others appear to?
Have people often told you that you're too sensitive?
Do you feel compelled to keep growing until you've reached your full potential?
If that describes you, then you're in the right place. ADEPT Psychology was built to help you.
You may be a professional therapist, or you may not practice therapy formally. Either way, you love helping people, and you're very good at it. Still, you feel misunderstood and stuck, burning out faster than you're getting ahead. Your emotions sometimes get in the way of romance and close friendships. No matter how hard you try to avoid conflict, it doesn't seem to happen. Above all, you struggle with fear and self-doubt that can sometimes feel almost crippling.
If that also sounds like your experience, then come inside and discover how to reach your goals and get your life back on track.
