Kosovo Tax Administration for the sake of correctness, informs all the citizens who have submitted their application for reimbursement from fiscal receipt for Q4 2016, that the verification process has not been completed yet, since the interest of citizens to be part of this campaign during this period was tremendous. According to the information from the Department of Cash Registers, there are still a considerable number of applications which are in the process of verification.
Also, for the period Q3 2016, were verified around 99%, or about 200 applications remained to be re-verified, in order to confirm if they are in line with the criteria of the campaign.
Officials from the relevant department are working continuously in order to conclude as soon as possible all applications of this period. (more…)

Welcome to the Annunciation Orthodox Cathedral in Ottawa. This community is the Cathedral of the Archdiocese of Canada of the Orthodox Church in America and is currently administered by His Grace Irénée, Archbishop of Ottawa.
In September 2016, a fire destroyed a house next to the Cathedral and our building sustained significant damage from smoke and water, as well as some fire damage to the roof of the residents' section. The temple is untouched and we are serving our usual services as per the calendar. The repairs to the affected areas are underway, but we do not currently have access to some parts of our building. We ask you to be careful of the construction.
Thank you to everyone for your prayers, concerns and help over these last months.
On the surface Orthodoxy can easily appear mysterious and Eastern but in fact, it is the universal Christian faith, which reached the North American continent in the 18th century. North America has saints of its own, and the icons of St. Herman of Alaska, St. Tikhon of Moscow, St. Innocent of Alaska, St. Raphael and St. Alexis Toth, can be found in the Cathedral.
Our services are mostly in English, but usually include some French, Slavonic, Greek, and/or Romanian.
We would be happy to have you join us!

AudioFile Recommends
Cassandra Campbell's beautifully expressive performance captures the emotional depth of these loosely interlocked essays in which Joyce Carol Oates reflects primarily on her family and childhood and the significant events that influenced her worldview and development as an author. Using a conversational, almost storytelling, style, Campbell creates a welcome intimacy between the listener and Oates's carefully crafted prose. Several pieces involve long lists of food or clothing or other short memories, and Campbell's whispery, melodic voice captures the poetic quality of those sections, completely captivating the listener. The essays embrace a broad emotional spectrum—from the wonderment of obtaining a first library card to the devastation of losing a parent—and present a stark portrait of growing up in rural America in the 1950s.

To showcase our fun Convention memories from this year, I figured I would start my Workshop on the Go series with one of our new paper lines called Dakota.
I am in LOVE with all the fun techniques featured here! The layout also has some fun embossing detail that features our new Mini Pigment Inks which we will work with in class. I am sure you will love these little gems - I am really thrilled about them and plan to be embossing much more in the future!
The basic workshop for Dakota will include your paper pack, round adhesive studs, black hemp, exclusive stamp set and your full color brochure. We use the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge for this workshop as well. The alphabet stamp set used is called Urban Alphabet.
I will be showcasing my hubby Steve's birthday pictures on the second layout of this workshop. This is truly a very versatile paper pack.
The Complements layout was also really fun - the Complements in Dakota are the cutest foil stickers which add another element of dimension to the design.
There is still more artwork I am working on for Dakota, but I am out of time for now. If you would like to attend my Dakota Workshop in August, please email me asap!
DATE: Wednesday, August 22
TIME: 7:00 p.m.
PLACE: Sheryl's House - Boynton Beach

Bugged planet
New Wikileaks release on the 'bugged planet' – the $5-billion mass surveillance industry selling telecoms and internet monitoring technology.
To date, we have documented a total of 133 of these surveillance weapons dealers, including 36 in the United States, 18 in the United Kingdom, 15 in Germany, 11 in Israel and eight in Italy. As with "traditional" arms dealers, most of them are located in rich and democratic countries. 12 of the 26 countries documented are also part of the European Union, which accounts for 62 of these companies.
87 sell tools, systems and software for monitoring the Internet, 62 for telephone surveillance, while 20 are for spying on SMS messages. 23 are involved in speech recognition, and 14 with GPS geolocalisation. Seven of the companies are also involved in the area of "cyber-war offensives", selling Trojans, rootkits and other backdoors used to take control of computers remotely and without the knowledge of their users. These spy systems are distinct from those used by ordinary hackers in that they could not be identified by the "majority" of antivirus systems and other computer security solutions.
In Western democracies, the marketing and use of these systems of surveillance and interception of telecommunications is strictly controlled. There is nothing, however, to prevent their sale to countries with weaker restrictions, including to dictatorships. Although these tools are designed for espionage, they are not considered weapons. As such their exportation is controlled by national, European or international laws. Whether or not this business is moral, as things stand it is completely legal.
Spyfiles.org has an interactive graphic showing where these companies are located. It's a little misleading; it implies these countries are where the technology is used too. Nonetheless worth a look.
New Delhi journalist Sagarika Ghose live-tweeted Assange's video speech at the HTC Summit on 3rd December. Her take on his key points:
We are entering an age of transparency. The information of ordinary citizens is being accessed and monitored by secretive corporations. Elites are trying to hide information but the data of the common man is more openly available than ever to big companies. Public data, emails etc are being intercepted regularly. We are heading for bulk surveillance of the public to benefit transnational security elites.
A question to Assange: isn't it better to give up some liberty and privacy in order to be safe?
His response: Giving up personal data to organisations is not part of the democratic covenant. Organisations should be accountable
Sagarika Ghose's overall take on the presentation was that "Assange either paranoid and delusional or chillingly prophetic.."
However Indy Johar crucially recognises that this is not just a story about government or military surveillance. He tweeted:
The private platform web Facebook twitter etc has accelerated the asymmetry of personal data, open for the 99% & deep analytics for the 1%. [1]
It's not the openness of our data that is the issue but the hidden predictive analytics, analysis & surveillance undertaken by hidden corps [2]
How exactly can we parse the differences between the Iranian police monitoring social media to crack down on dissidents… the UK police monitoring social media as part of their policing of protests… Vodafone monitoring social media to get advance warning of UK Uncut protests… and Vodafone monitoring social media to better understand their audience and increase sales?
Different ends, to be sure. But what does it mean that the same methods can be used for each?
For each government / corporation, the overarching aim is the same: knowledge = power. Through greater knowledge, the better they believe can control the actions of their consumer/citizenry.
And in each, the consumer/citizen social media user stands in the same relationship to power: asymmetric.

The 20-year-old Sparta Rotterdam player has signed a four-year deal after agreeing personal terms and passing a medical.
"We feel we have signed an exciting young player in Marvin," Southgate told the club's official website, www.mfc.co.uk. "Marvin is very enthusiastic about coming to England and the challenge of Premier League football."
He added: "Last season was his breakthrough year at Sparta Rotterdam and he ended the campaign with a flurry, scoring eight goals in his final 10 games.
"He can play anywhere across the front line, so he has versatility to go with pace, energy and technical skills.
"He also fits the profile of the sort of players we want at Middlesbrough in that he is a young player with hunger, energy and pace."
Emnes is likely to be employed as an attacking midfielder by Boro as Southgate looks to improve the supply lines to the likes of record signing Afonso Alves and Turkey international Tuncay Sanli.
Fabio Rochemback's departure, along with that of Gaizka Mendieta, has depleted the club's midfield resources, and with uncertainty persisting over the futures of George Boateng and Gary O'Neil, the manager has drawn up a list of targets.
Paris St German's Didier Digard and Reading's James Harper remain in his sights, although the Frenchman has been suspended by his club over comments he made about the delay in his proposed move to Teesside.Reuse content

fabulous chairs
These red chairs are amazing. I ordered four to have in my smaller dining room. Here is where we stay when our friends come to visit as the look is so unique, full of color and life. The chairs are really sturdy, easy to clean and move around as they are lightweight. We even use them outside for barbeque parties. Great deal made.

After a bank heist in Abilene with several casualties, the bank robber Seth Gecko and his psychopath and rapist brother Richard Gecko continue their crime spree in a convenience store in the middle of the desert while heading to Mexico with a hostage. They decide to stop for a while in a low-budget motel. Meanwhile the former minister Jacob Fuller is traveling on vacation with his son Scott and his daughter Kate in a RV. Jacob lost his faith after the death of his beloved wife in a car accident and quit his position of pastor of his community and stops for the night in the same motel Seth and Richard are lodged. When Seth sees the recreational vehicle, he abducts Jacob and his family to help his brother and him to cross the Mexico border, promising to release them on the next morning. They head to the truck drivers and bikers bar Titty Twister where Seth will meet with his partner Carlos in the dawn. When they are watching the dancer Santanico Pandemonium, Seth and Richard fight with three bodyguards. But soon they discover that the bar is a coven of vampires and they need to fight until dawn to leave the place alive.

Get Amongst the Gold Coast's Culture!
The City of Gold Coast will be hosting an event for residents of Surfers Paradise property and surrounding areas in order to obtain ideas for how to improve the region's culture.
The Turn it Up event will take place this Saturday (August 10) at the brand new Helensvale Library and Cultural Centre, which opened its doors to the public last month.
It will feature live music from local artists, as well as some video submissions for the council's latest cultural initiative.
At the event, visitors will be encouraged to contribute to the city's Draft Culture Strategy 2013-2023, which gives a chance for residents to have their say on the future of the city.
Those that cannot attend the event will have until August 16 to comment on the draft strategy.
"Helensvale Library and Cultural Centre, the venue for Saturday's event, is a vibrant new cultural hub for the north and just one way that the City is increasing opportunities for our community to create, experience and enjoy arts and culture," said Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate in an August 6 statement.
This is a great opportunity for Gold Coast and Main Beach real estate residents to submit their ideas on how the city can improve itself.

Attack Attack! (US)
Carlile left during the 2008 tour and was replaced by former For All We Know vocalist Nick Barham, who remained with the lineup for one year before making his own exit. Rather than hire a new singer, Attack Attack! promoted keyboardist Caleb Shomo to the frontman role and began working on a new album. The self-titled Attack Attack! appeared in June 2010, marking Shomo's debut as lead vocalist. Later that year, Johnny Franck announced he was parting ways with the band, leaving Shomo to handle all of the vocal duties. The band's first album as a quartet, This Means War, appeared in 2012, and also featured Shomo not only handling all of the vocals on the album, but the production as well. ~ Chris True & Andrew Leahey

I've been working for Mentor Graphics for many years now. Smart coworkers, great environment, great opportunities for career advancement, great vacation - 24 working days! Overall, a great place to be.
Compensation package is not on par with other companies in the same industry. Stock options are deplorable, bonus is minimal, base salary lags behind other companies', incompentence is tolerated more than I'd like it to be.
Advice to Management
Upper management is driving the company in the right direction
Working environment (mainly offices, few cubes)
Corporate culture among long-serving individual contributor employees counters sometimes seeming indifference of senior management.
Wilsonville isn't in California. :-)
Vacation accrual went through some bumps, but is now back to where it was (2 days a month).
Move to Wilsonville and you may never be able to leave.
If you are not working for a big revenue product, get ready to live in the shadows.
Banked vacation maximum reserve is down to 10 days from 24. No more long breaks - take it or lose it.
Option grants have atrophied and MENT is not managed as a growth stock aimed at increasing shareholder value.
Do not count on a bonus.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan has been cut to a 6-month look-back (industry norm) rather than 2 years.
Layoffs are invariably stealthy and seemingly without warning.
Advice to Management
Fix sales and revenue recognition and quit buying companies only to see the revenue disappear in a cloud of large deals with low access rates and cannibalized product sales.

RECORDINGS; Some Small Joys On New Disks Of Italian Operas
Published: February 25, 1990
(Page 2 of 2)
The two Rossini sets present a surface contrast; Claudio Abbado's ''Italiana in Algeri'' (DG 427 331) uses another new critical edition, while Giuseppe Patane prefaces his ''Barbiere di Siviglia'' (London 425 520) with a statement explicitly rejecting the critical edition and taking a stand in favor of ''traditional'' interpretation. But Mr. Patane's recording is not really a traditional ''Barbiere'' at all. It is note-complete, right down to the last line of the prolix recitatives, and his cast, like most Rossini casts today, mixes some traditional ornaments with some of the devices that have gained currency in revivals of lesser-known operas. His Rosina is another promising newcomer, Cecilia Bartoli, who needs to polish her florid singing but who has a lovely voice and a bit of brio about her. William Matteuzzi provides a sweet but undersung Almaviva; the rest of the cast is poor, and the conducting, sad to say, is uneven and dull.
The ''Italiana'' is especially disappointing because here the elements for potential success are present. It's worth pulling down the old Angel recording with Giulini for a spot comparison. Try the bubbly tenor-bass duet in Act I. The first impression is likely to be the drastic difference in voice-orchestra balance; the second, of the consequences of that balance for vocal delivery. Cesare Valletti and Antonio Cortis with Giulini sound as though they are having a droll tete-a-tete in which one participant is secretly frantic to put the other off an absurd idea. Frank Lopardo and Ruggero Raimondi under Abbado sound like two workers calling to each other over construction noise. One is comic, the other boring.
Too much of Mr. Lopardo's singing throughout is hard and inelegant, and there is much hectoring declamation from the lower voices. Mr. Raimondi discloses some unsuspected skills for Rossini singing, but doesn't make much music. Agnes Baltsa is more interesting. She brings vitality to her portrayal of the title character, and sometimes she copes well with the florid writing (in the ''Qual piacer'' cabaletta she is delightful; in more lyrical florid work she can be sketchy and graceless). Her high notes take on a noisy, impure sound that is no treat, and her idea of the part is a little too shrewish for my taste, but at least she has an idea.
The conducting is not without its rewards. The ensembles have momentum, and Mr. Abbado sometimes secures the chamber-music pianissimo precision that he made famous two decades ago with his ''Barbiere'' and ''Cenerentola'' (though it is still a prickly, sharp sound, especially as here recorded). And once again it is good to have the critical edition. But the leaden introduction, driven allegro and hard-hit contrasts of the overture are not my idea of fun, and I can't imagine ever putting this set on again for listening pleasure.
An interesting perspective is provided by the reissue (on CD only) of some attempts to record complete Italian operas back in the prehistoric days of bulky 78-rpm sets. Rodolphe, a French label distributed by Harmonia Mundi USA, has issued a bargain-priced 12-CD set containing five operas and the Verdi Requiem recorded with La Scala forces between 1929 and 1934 (along with many single arias by famous Scala singers). Complete recordings were not lucrative then, and most leading artists, with a few far-seeing exceptions, of the time confined themselves to recording singles. So these sets cannot be taken as representing the best of their era. Still, there are impressive and exciting achievements in them - along with a good deal of strained and mediocre singing. The orchestra, in the sets where it is well recorded, can be heard to ''sing'' rather wonderfully itself. And the confidence, vocal means and idiomatic fervor of singers like Borgioli, Stracciari, Merli, Pinza, Minghini-Cattaneo and Granforte are very satisfying indeed.
EMI-Angel, meanwhile, is bringing out the slightly later series (1934-46) starring Beniamino Gigli. His faults are well known, but there is peerless singing here, especially in the Puccini roles (Madama Butterfly, on CHS 7 69990 with Toti dal Monte and Oliviero de Fabritiis conducting, is already out; ''Boheme'' and ''Tosca'' are to follow) and the thrilling ''Andrea Chenier.'' In these reissued sets I cannot recall a single ill-judged tempo or contrived effect. At their worst they are honest and ordinary, or honest and sloppy; at best they are exciting in a way that is central to the nature of the Italian operatic form. The enthusiasm they reveal, if not all their details, is urgently worth rediscovering and emulating by those responsible for current efforts.

|Welcome to the ATAV Site
What is Auslan Teachers Association?
Auslan Teachers Association is a professional organisation forming an umbrella for its members who are Auslan Teachers or anyone who works using Auslan in all education settings (Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary; Deaf schools and Integrated schools/Deaf Units/Facilities), community classes and families of deaf children via early intervention programs in their own homes. This is an organisation or association that has been formed with the sponsorship or support of MLTAV (Modern Languages Teachers' Assocation of Victoria). We would like to see that Auslan is recognised as part of the LOTE association, and can become equivalent to that of other LOTE teacher organisations. We as an association would meet on a regular basis as a professional body to encourage the teaching and learning of Auslan within the education system. We strive to gain knowledge of what is happening within this field, and to update periodically with new information in regards to Auslan Education.
Why is Auslan different to other languages?
It is a visual-spatial language, unlike a spoken language. It cannot be learned from a book, but rather through videos/DVDs. It is always best to learn it in class and through a Deaf person.

Maximizing Your Vacation Dollar
It's time for vacation! Whether your plans call for a quick getaway with friends over a long weekend or a fun-filled family snowboarding trip closer to home, there are some simple things you can do to get the most bang from your travel buck, according to travel experts.
Drive, don't fly.
If time and destination allow, load up the car instead of flying the friendly skies. This can work well for large groups and helps create lasting memories of your vacation as you encounter various roadside oddities—not to mention, you can bring a full-sized bottle of shampoo.
Shop around.
Every vacation venue, even the high-end ones, has competitors. It's possible to get a better rate if you investigate your options.
Use online travel sites to track down deals.
Then, get on the phone and play one against the other. You might be able to get a discount.
When flying, be flexible.
If you can change your arrival and/or departure date by a day or two, or fly at a different hour, you can sometimes save a lot of money.
Leverage your credit card rewards.
If you have a credit card with frequent flier miles, check the terms. For example, some cards let you use your points to book with any airline.
Go off the beaten path for meals.
Want to have a memorable and budget-friendly vacation? Venture outside the hotel dining room and away from the trendy restaurants. Find out where the locals eat, and dine there. That overlooked hole in the wall could serve the best tacos you've ever tasted.
Look for hotels that include breakfast.
If your hotel includes breakfast in the room rate, not only will you save money, but you'll also get your vacation day off to a great start with coffee and a good meal.
Do your homework.
If you're traveling to a new place, do some research and learn how to maximize your time and dollar. Find out about free and discounted attractions and venues that offer special pricing for children, students or military.

Poor doggie probably noticed the weather change so she acts manja more lately:
She follows me almost 24/7 for unknown reason? Even watching me when I am changing my clothes?!
Probably the house is often empty nowadays that she doesn't want me to leave her alone. Which I often do.
Omg! Poor doggie! I am very sorry! But I need to run more~
Also, she starts to shed a lot of those furry hair; which enters my throat mercilessly!
I literally have to hunt for these furballs every hour; because they are just in every most difficult corner in the house! Why?!
And omg you know what?
Today I accidentally stepped on her tail! She stood up very quickly to avoid me but I ended up taking few percent of her furry tails:
That is like 10% of her entire tail!!!!
I am very sorryyyy! I regret stepping on you! (But only if you are not too clingy to me that this won't happen!)
She thought I was playing with her (by taking her furs? Seriously?) and she bit my hand lovingly. She didn't get angry at all.
OMG. Why you so pure?
I said sorry like hundred times and I don't think she would understand me but believe me I really felt so bad making your useful tail bald a bit.
We all should learn to behave from animals, from which they never hold on grudge to us.
Lots of love ♥

Well I am back again with my 8th card for the Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop. I made this card this evening after working and thinking about what I was going to make all day. I do not always like all my cards (I am my own worse critic) but I am happy with this one.
I saw a new challenge today at Tuesday Throwdown to use a creative border. I thought on it awhile and decided to make my own border with the negative space after I die cut the word "coffee" from along the bottom od my yellow cardstock. I then backed it up with navy blue cardstock so the border would really pop.
I used this sketch from Newton's Nook and I am entering this card in their Inky Paws Challenge #49:
I used a sweet little stamp that I won in a previous Coffee Lovers Bloghop from Stamplorations called Coffee For All Seasons. I embellished one of the coffee cups with a sweet little hibiscus puffy sticker to make it that much more summery.
But....getting back to the Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop -- I am really excited about this bloghop...there are 77 sponsors and TONS of prizes, inspiration and freebies. Just enter a summer themed, coffee themed card on THIS post for a chance to enter. And do not forget to check out all the other entries...many have blog candy. And speaking blog candy....I have a small blog candy prize. I recently won a prize from Latina Crafters I got an extra stamp to give away along with a package of my favorite post it notes ever from Cocoa Daisy. To be eligible to win this little prize just enter a card in the hop and leave the number of your entry in a comment on this or any other of my summer coffee lovers blog hop posts. I will pick and post a winner on Sunday evening July 2. Here is the prize I am offering:
Well, that is it for tonight....I will be trying to make another coffee themed card tomorrow night after work so if I succeed, I will meet you back here about the same time.
Thanks for dropping in.

Hello ladies! Today I thought to blog a little about my experience with eyelash extensions. I have been getting lash extensions for the past 1-2 years now, and have tried a few different salons and thought to share my experience here!
I've rank them top down, from the best to the worst. Here we go!
1. My Sassy Lashes
Number of strands: Natural Lash (120 lashes, C curl, 10mm – 12mm)
Cost: S$108 (Full price list here)
Website: http://mysassylashes.weebly.com/
Location: Singapore Shopping Centre, #02-25 (behind Dhoby Ghaut MRT, 5 mins walk)
Booking: Packed schedule – booking form and slots here
My Sassy Lashes is a very popular lash salon that has a lot of loyal customers (just check out their booking system and you'll see how popular they are). Just a 5-minute walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT, their salon is really quite convenient to get to.
My lash stylist for the day was Yuki, who trained in Japan to be a certified eyelash specialist and have more than 6 years of experience in providing eyelash extension services. I find that she is not only friendly, but also a very genuine person. I noticed during the registration process that she did ask some rather detailed questions about my eye's sensitivity as well as my preferences, so as to customise a better experience for me.
I'm not gonna review the whole process, but jump straight into what really sets them apart from other salons, making me wanna keep going back… basically 2 things – superior product knowledge and quality of products!
Yuki could answer all my questions regarding lash extensions do's and don'ts, how to care for lashes, cluster vs lash by lash etc. I could write a whole Q&A on eyelash extensions based on the info she shared with me (when I am free that is). Best part is she's not irritated by me asking questions but shared really sincerely.
Quality of products wise? To be very honest, most lash extensions make my eyelids swell up for at least 1-2 hours afterwards and I could definitely feel stinging sensations as my skin is quite sensitive. But with My Sassy Lashes, it's the first time lash extensions DIDN'T HURT AT ALL. I was alsleep for most of the session. I was super amazed and impressed after waking up, and couldn't stop asking Yuki how is it possible that it doesn't sting at all. She explained that their products are imported from Japan and the quality is good. Also, the glue shouldn't touch your eyelids as the lashes are glued on top of your original lash. So that depends on the skill of your lash stylist.
My other half also commented: "I've seen you do so many lash extensions, but this one looks really natural and beautiful". That's the opinion from my other half who doesn't usually notice such stuff.
My Sassy Lashes is definitely the salon of my choice and rank top on my list for now. I trust them to make my eyes bright & beautiful.
Rating: 5/5 stars
2. Graceous Eyelash Extension Salon
Number of strands: Natural Lash (80 lashes, C curl, 11mm – 13mm)
Cost: S$100 (Price list here)
Website: http://www.graceous.com/english-top/
Location: 9 Mohamed Sultan Road, #03-02
Booking: Hard to book last minute, packed schedule
Graceous is a Japanese lash and nail salon which has gained popularity with bloggers and users due to their good quality lash and service. My girlfriend wanted to try, and I agreed. It was my first ever lash extension and I was a little nervous about it.
We got there on time, and the salon was empty as we were the first appointment of the day. I was assigned to a Japanese lady, who was extremely polite and gentle. She sat with me and did a consultation. Told me that my lashes are quite straight and pointing downwards, thus she recommended c curl for me at 11mm – 13mm.
Beds do not have screens between them thus a little lack of privacy, but as we're the only ones there, it was fine. She cleansed my lashes with some sort of solution and to remove any dirt before proceeding to tape my under eyes and start with the extension. The whole process was very comfortable, and I gradually fell asleep!
I think there was a part where I opened my eyes to peep a little and the glue seeped into my eyes. It burned like hell, but the lady serving me quickly used a fan to 'blow' at my eye area to alleviate the pain. Extensions was done under 1.5 hours including consultation which was a good first experience.
Graceous' lash extensions were very natural looking and lasted me almost 2 months (still have some strands left after the two month mark), which may partly be due to me not wearing eye makeup on most days and I also don't really have the habit of rubbing my eyes after my eyelid surgery.
Rating: 4/5 stars
3. Yuting Lash Extensions (Yishun)
Number of strands: Natural lash extension (80 lashes, C curl, 10-12mm)
Cost: S$60
Location: Home based in a condo
Booking: Usually full, but can book within one – two weeks
Number: 9169 9016
I tried this right before I went to Taiwan for holidays, and i'm really impressed by the quality. Yuting is a Taiwanese lady who learnt the Korean lash extension technique. The lashes are lightweight and don't look fake, and the best part is the price is affordable. She's very friendly and not hard to get along with.
I like it especially that she provided me with a sponge to take care of my lashes and also a lash brush for free, which comes with a small instruction card. The lashes fall out every 1-2 days which is normal.
Photo on the right is with no makeup on. Can't really see my lashes from far away but it's noticeable when talking face to face. Very natural, which is what I like. Downside is that it is a little inaccessible but the price makes up for it.Recommended for Northies who are looking for a cheaper eyelash extension service that is decent.
Rating: 4/5 stars
4. KJ Studio (Covo)
Number of strands: Natural Lash (100 lashes, C curl, 11mm – 13mm)
Cost: S$100 (Price list here)
Website: http://kjs.covosg.com/en/index.html
Location: 43A keong saik road 089147
Booking: Had to wait one week after calling
KJ Studio is another Japanese lash salon which is quite popular online. A friend told me that KJ studio is pretty good and that I have to try it out.
Got there a little late cause I underestimated the time I would take to get there from my office but the lady was nice and didn't show me any black face for being late. It was 7+ pm and there were a few ladies doing their extensions inside. Same like before, I had a short consultation before proceeding in.. Since they have a promo for first-timers, she asked me to try 100 strands instead of 80 and I agreed.
The whole experience was very pleasant and took about 1.5 hours in total, by then I was totally dying of hunger at almost 9pm but I was really satisfied with the lashes. Eyelids were a little swollen from the glue but no major reaction which is good.
Did this satisfaction last? Sadly no. The lashes fell out much more and faster compared to Graceous' extensions and was almost all gone by 1.5 months. The lashes also went out of shape no matter how much I tried to comb them so they ended up looking like spider legs towards the end of their lives.
Rating: 3.5/5 stars
5. EyeDesign by Devonshire (Tj Pagar)
Number of strands: 120 strands, C Curl
Cost: Starting from $100
Website: https://www.facebook.com/devonshire.sg/
Location: 60 Tras ST #02-01, Singapore 078999
Booking: 6221 2855
Another authentic Japanese lash salon that I have tried. I was served by Ms Yumiko and she's very sweet and easy to talk to. Other than the very good service, I will point out what's special about EyeDesign by Devonshire. After consultation, I laid down on the bed and Yumiko asked if I want to do a mini '10 piece extension' and check if the length was okay before proceeding on with the full extension. I thought it was a really good idea, especially for first timers who have no idea what length suits them.
I also tried lower lash extensions for the very first time, and find that it creates a wider eye effect than with normal lash extensions. I guess when you think of it – how can someone have very thick lashes on the top and be totally bare on the bottom lash line? It helps make your lash extensions look more real. I did the volume lash extensions, which means there're 2 or 3 lashes on one strand to make your lashes look fuller than single strands.
Overall, I like the service and the place is really zen and clean. Eyelids were swollen for 1-2 hours which subsided eventually. They also have a hair salon arm located right beside on the same floor. Located just five minutes walk from Tanjong Pagar MRT, I will visit again in a heartbeat.
Rating: 3.5/5 stars
6. Queen's Market (Tanjong Pagar)
Number of strands: Lash extension (120 lashes, C curl)
Cost: S$50 (tried it during a promotion)
Website: http://queensmarket.sg/
Location: 16A Tanjong Pagar Road, Singapore 088493
Booking: Busy after work hours
Read good reviews about them on beautyundercover's page here so decided to try them out. It's a Japanese based beauty salon nestled in the long row of food places in Tanjong Pagar. Location wise, it's not easy to find and not situated near the MRT.
First impressions, place is kept neat and tidy which I liked. Lady boss Mika San was very polite, and service was great. Lashes were done after a consultation and there was no pain felt during the session. The nightmare came when my lashes fell out in clumps after barely a week, when I did not even use eye makeup during the week. I have double eyelids done and made it a point never to rub my eyes so I'm not sure why this happened?
*I called them to inform of this matter, and they have kindly offered a refund or for me to go down and redo the set. I think this shows that they are sincere and responsible at the very least. I found it too troublesome and took the refund option instead.
Rating: 2/5 stars
7. Private Room (Tanjong Pagar)
Number of strands: Korean flat lash extension (100 lashes, ?? curl, ??mm)
Cost: S$100 inclusive of brazillian wax (Promo at that time). Think the normal extensions usually cost $100+, please call to check
Website: http://www.privateroom.com.sg
Location: 43A keong saik road 089147
Booking: hard to book for same week appointment
Heavily promoted by bloggers, this is quite a new establishment. Their ambassador is Yan Kay Kay and I managed to know about this salon's promotions as I follow her on Instagram. She looks really pretty with her lash extensions so I thought to give it a try as it was located just five minutes away from my office! This was one of my most ?? experience ever.
My not so good brazillian experience aside, let's just focus on the lash extensions. It was a Singaporean lady who was assigned to me. She didn't consult with me and just went straight into it. I didn't know how many mm she was doing but she's started already so I'm like never-mind, I'm sure she knows what she is doing.
The experience was so painful, I didn't feel comfortable during the entire duration. The stick that she was holding kept poking into my lashes and it was just pain pain and more pain. And the glue seeped into the eyes and it burned like hell, can't stop tearing. After the extension was done, I looked into the mirror and I was quite unhappy that the lashes were so short, it's like I didn't have extensions on at all. I just paid and left quietly since there's nothing much they can do at that point already.
As expected, the lashes didn't last long, and they were out of shape barely 2-3 weeks in. They also look 'plasticky' and unlike the ones at Graceous and KJ Studio that looked more like natural lash hair. I will probably never visit them again. This teaches me a lesson that I probably should never try services on promotion as you'll be stuck with a bad job for one – two months and a lot of unnecessary pain just to save a few bucks.
Rating: 1/5 stars
Q&A: Will lash extensions harm my real lashes?
That was my question to most of the salons I have visited. All of them told me the same thing – lash extensions, when done properly, should not affect your real lashes. The individual lash is glued on top of your own lashes, and your own lashes fall out due to natural cycle, not due to the extensions.
For me, they are a great convenience cause they darken the eye line, akin to wearing eyeliner without actually having to wear any. It opens up the eyes beautifully and the best part is not having to wear any makeup to look decent enough to head out.
Till next time, Jenn

Among the countless things when relocating and moving home is find yourself a professional business that is moving, you might have to do. As you will find really so many companies out there, what might you need to look for in a company? Here are some things you might want to remember.
Things a professional moving company should offer
It's understandable that there are several things that you should always look for when choosing a moving company and these are:
A firm who gives a totally free no-obligation estimate for your move. Usually you should be offered a free estimate using phone call and a website type by the company;
Value for money;
Reliability and customer satisfaction. The organization should provide providing evaluations of the solutions to a website page from previous clients;
A company that is licenced;
A firm providing insurance for your transfer. This might include insurance for the items of the shift, liability insurance and workers insurance.
The above are what every professional moving company should provide clients as common, but of program some firms offer mo Re and may exceed and past the regular.
Any Added Providers Offered
Services that are added may be offered by some removal companies and this is what may possibly make them stick out in the remainder. For example some companies may simply provide a removal service, while another may provide a complete removal service which includes entering your home before the moving day and supplying a packaging service. A whole moving package might be the option that is perfect if you work or perhaps you've several things which are delicate and you want professionals to look after them.
Remember that you may not typically have mo Re expertise than professional as it pertains click here to packaging as they'll have completed it again and again, it really is their occupation. An expert firm supplying a supplying service brings in most of the packing gear which is essential and this may save you a lot of stress although perhaps not only lots of moment but. Packing isn't the easiest job to tackle and with specialists you don't have to worry about what to purchase for packing and when to start packing for your transfer.
You shouldn't be scared to ask for what you desire away of the moving company. For instance if you are uncertain about something, say whether you can find added costs ask and what the estimate addresses. Offer insurance and a company that is moving must be mo-Re than reliable, they ought to value their prospective customers and no Thing should be also much trouble, modest or large.

This story is based on true events. It contains femdom, CBT,. When my older next door neighbor lady taught me to be her toy.
* * * * * * *
Since I was about 16 I was noticing our neighbor Deb Fisher and her 19-year-old daughter Megan. However Deb did a lot more for me. She was 42 and looked great, one look at her and my cock became instantly hard, and I think she knew it. She was about 5'10" and weighed about 140 pounds. She had long legs and a wonderful tight ass. She had red hair that went a few inches below her shoulders. She had that fair skin that redheads seem to have. Two years later I got to know them really well, and became theirs.
She was from the South and liked to wear those light cotton dresses. They were so light they barely hid her huge 36D breasts. I use to watch her sit in the shade and read, and pray for her tits to fall out, while I jacked off from my bedroom.
When I was 18 it was the first time my parents left me alone for an extended amount of time. They left for the Vegas on Thursday night and would be back Monday night. The rules were that I was to go to School and keep the house in order and NO PARTIES. And that our neighbor Ms. Fisher would be watching me. I thought my God if they only knew, what I wanted her to watch me do; they would not leave me alone.
But anyways I thought I would use the free time to catch up on world history.
So I got back from the airport and about 7:30 PM Thursday night. I flipped on the TV and opened my algebra book. And then the phone rang, it was Deb. I thought my God is she checking up on me already. No I guess not.
"Hello I answered"
She Replied "Mark, I know your parents just left and I don't mean to bug you, but the toilet in the basement will not quit running. Can you come home for and looked at it"
My dad had taught me a lot about how to fix things. "I will be right over" I said
I went out the back door and through the fence. I kept thinking about at least seeing her would give me something of memory to masturbate to tonight.... If I would have only known.
I knocked on the door and walked in, that was kind of her policy.
"Ms. Fisher" I yelled
"Down here" came the reply
I had never been down in her basement. But I walked on down, all the while thinking how am I going to stop this water and get out of here. I didn't want to have Ms. Fisher notice if my cock got hard.
I walked around the corner and there was Ms. Fisher in a bathrobe. Oh shit I thought like that will help anything. Just then she turned and smiled.
"Hi thanks for coming over" she replied
"No problem, I will see what I can do" I told her this
Her chest almost was almost visible through the robe. And that did it I was instantly hard. I was sure my cock was showing through my pants.
At that point I thought I saw her eyes dart down.
I said "where is the toilet"
She walked behind in closed the folding doors in front of the stairs.
She gave me a devilish look and said "actually Mark, there is nothing wrong with the toilet. But I needed to talk to you."
"Mark I have seen you watching me. Have you been watching me"
I stuttered "wha- what do you mean Ms. Fisher"
I asked a question "have you been watching me, do you find me attractive"
She walked behind me and reached around in front and grabbed my cock. She whispered in my ear "do you find me attractive"
"Yes" I said sheepishly
She asked "have you ever thought about being dominated by a female"
"Not really, it might be okay though" I replied, at this point I would done anything to get some sexual attention from her.
Well why don't you strip down and we can try it for while
"Okay" I said. I could not start to strip fast enough.
"Well hold on there. Let's go over some rules" she said
"Rules" I questioned
She laughed "yes, rules silly."
"Okay are you ready Hun" She asked
"I guess" I told her "No. You will reply, yes ma'am or Ms. Deb." She barked
I was shocked but I replied "yes Ms. Deb"
She smiled and said "Good, you're a fast learner" She sat down in a chair and crossed her legs. She said "rule number two, you do what I say or there will be a penalty."
"What kind of penalty" I asked
"Why did you not say yes Ms. Deb, slave" She yelled "I will give you a penalty later"
"Yes Ms. Deb" I said thinking to myself what have I got into, do I really want to do this
"The last rule is, after anything happens you say thank you." She said.
"Yes Ms. Deb." I said
With that she told me to strip. As I took my clothes off; she took her robe off. She was in a latex teddy. And a belt that contained a ridding crop.
She walked over to me and touched my cock. Which was partially erect standing straight out. She looked me up and down sometimes touching my body. I was suddenly aware that this was the first time that a female was seeing me nude. My 5'8" thin frame that weighed 145lbs was standing there. She grabbed my ass and squeezed. My 5.25 inch cock standing strait up at this time.
"What a small cock" she cooed
I felt terrible but I replied "Yes Ms.Deb...I'm sorry "
She came in front of me and hugged me saying "Hun why are you sorry"
"You sounded upset at the size of my penis" l said looking down
"No I'm alright with it, I can still.... Play with it." she said
"We need to give you a shave. Come with me..."
She grabbed my cock and pulled me into the bathroom; she then took a set of hair clippers and shaved my pubic hair. She then took a can of shaving cream and a razor and shaved my ball sack.
It felt wonderful. "I had never considered shaving it before." I said
"That's better" she said
"Thank You, ma'am"
"Am I allowed to speak" I asked
"If it's important you may speak with you want. Just be careful if I don't like it you may get a penalty" she said
"Well it feels wonderful Ms. Deb" I almost moaned
"You may tell me that anytime Mark" she said. She rose up right and kissed my forehead
"Now I need to make sure you are good and clean, we need to get rid of the germs right..." She said. Right then she placed a rag on my sack...
"Ouch ... What the hell..." I started
"What did you say" She demanded.
"I'm sorry ... Thank you ma'am" I answered quickly... Her tone was kind of a turn on. And so was the burning sensation on my ball sack. She poured more liquid on the rag and continued to wipe where I had been shaved.
"Ms. Deb" I asked.
"Yes Hun..." She replied
"What did to put on that rag, it burned a little" I asked
"Did you enjoy it." She wanted to know.
"Yes it was a different fun feeling" I think the excitement carried in my voice
"Well good... It was just plain rubbing alcohol. Just to keep everything infection free." She then asked if I had ever heard of CBT"
"No" I said "what is it"
She laughed and said "you're going to find out.
She said "your chest needs a shave too. But we will get to that a little later".
"That's better; from now on you will keep yourself shaved and clean. Do you understand" she asked
"Yes ma'am" I replied with that she grabbed my cock and pulled me out into the other room. She gripped and pulled harder than before. She placed me in the middle of the room.
Now than you need to learn how to present yourself to me. "You will learn to stand in front of me with your legs shoulder width apart in your hands behind your back, is that understood" she barked
"Yes ma'am" I said
"Then DO IT!!!" She yelled
I then snapped into an attention. She then grabbed my cock and began to jack me off. I stood on my tip toes and let out a sigh.
"You need to not cum, and tell me if you get even close. Understand"
"Yes" I replied
"Yes WHAT" she yelled
At that moment I said "better stop Ms. Deb... I mean yes Ma'am"
"Good slave..."
She rose and kissed me and pushes backwards... I laid down on what I thought was a bed. She went down on top of me and kept kissing me. She took my right hand and put it on her left breast. This was it I thought, I was going to get to have sex with Deb.
But then she kept raising my arm above my head. Suddenly I felt something go around my arm and I heard a click. Before I knew what was happening she placed my cock arm up over and placed a strap around my arm. I could not move either of my arms. She smiled at me. And said "now the fun starts."
I was a bit worried, but I thought it was kind of fun to. Next she grabbed my legs and locked them down in a spread eagle position. She then ran her finger up my leg and the side of cock. She said "Do you remember the rule if I jack you off"
I replied "Yes Ms. Deb"
She smiled..." What a perfect slave you are being."
She then started to jerk hard. I was enjoying it so much and then she stopped....
"You still can't cum..." She barked
"Please... Please Ms. Deb let me cum."
"I said no!!! You worthless excuse, you still have one penalty. Now two" she barked
She let go of my cock. And walked to a work bench, she grabbed a piece of rope came back and fed it under my back. She wrapped it around and came up and brought it over my dick just under the head. She then came around behind my head where I could not see her.
She put her face over mine and said "you have been a bad boy it's time for your penalty."
At this point I was so excited I thought I was going to blow my load. She then moved one leg on each. I looked up and saw Ms. Deb's bare pussy. "What's going on" I asked.
I could see liquid coming off her pussy lips. I was nervous to do anything without her permission at this point.
"It is getting late and I think about work" she said calmly.
I said "I think about going home so I can go to school"
She began to chuckle "Hun you're not going to school tomorrow, at least not at Jefferson. No I'm going to call you in, and you are going stay right where you are. I got someone coming to be with you."
"But I have to ask. Are you ok with this" She asked
I almost couldn't yell yes "Ms. Deb" fast enough
But now it's time for your punishment. I going to sit on your face, you are going to pleasure with your tongue and make it good. And I am going to introduce your cock to my crop. "
She lowered herself onto my lips. I stuck my tongue in as far as I could. She laughed saying "No honey, not like that. Lick the very front first, slowly and the work your way in."
She spent the next minutes explain to me how to eat her pussy, until she cued all over my face. She collapsed for work on top of me for a second. Then sat up again and started to slap my cock. "Keep working that tongue you little man." She said.
She slapped me ten times and then she said, "What do you say" she asked
"Thank You, Ms. Deb." I replied. I was thinking she was not hitting me very hard for a punishment and that worried me. I continued to eat deb enjoying ever lick, and I think she loved it.
About that time she had another orgasm. She then started to smack my dick again, a little harder. 10 more times she stopped that's my cue. "Thank you, for the punishment, Ms. Deb." My cock was starting to really hurt
She laughed real hard really loud said "no that wasn't it, I was just warming up the skin." Just then she raised the crop above her and the hit my cock so hard the sound was deafening. I stopped what I was doing and screamed.
"Hey did I tell you to stop eating me!!" She yelled.
"No Ms. Deb." I said.
"Thank me, and get that tongue back inside me." She barked
"Thank you, Ms. Deb" I replied, then all of a sudden...WACK. I bit my tongue every time she hit me. She hit me about the thirteenth strike she began to scream from another orgasm; at least I'm doing something right I thought. She hit me two more times and said, "you're getting off light tonight sweetie."
With that she got off my face, bent down said "not a bad job, thank you slave".
I didn't know how to act after she gave me that complement. "Thank you, Ms. Deb" I said.
She said "I need to get you ready, it's almost time for her. How is your cock baby"
I looked at it; the head was still bright red from the beating. But I replied "just fine thank you, ma'am" I think she knew it was a lie.
"Good," she said, and I did not even ask who the her was.
I could have every guys dream, two females at once.
Deb untied the rope that was pinning my cock down.
"It's time to make a present out of you." She said in a sadistic tone.
She ran the rope around my balls and a lovely little bundle. She then ran the rope around both my cock and balls. She pulled the rope as tight as it will go, and wrapped it three times. Then she pulled the rope up the middle of my sack, separating my balls. Then she wrapped the rope around each testicle three times making each wrap tighter and tighter. She then hit my balls with the crop, very hard.
"Thank you, Ms. Deb. I like the feeling, of being tied like that; it does make my balls ache Ms. Deb." I said
She laughed and said "Good that's the way she likes it, and me to, you're welcome slave."
Finally I got the nerve to ask "ma'am who are you talking about".
"You will see" she replied. She then ran the world around my waist and down my legs. It ran right next to my cock. Making it stand straight up in the air. She lit a couple of candles on the wall and turned the lights off. I heard someone up in the kitchen. A voice yelled "Mom I'm home."
"Down here." Deb replied.
Right then I felt pain from the top of my dick down at she inserted the candle into my penis . She then took a lit candle, and moved it over my cock. She had put a birthday candle in my piss hole. "Holy shit!" I yelled. The flame wasn't touching my dick yet, bu it was burning me.
Deb smiled as her daughter walked up beside me. "Happy birthday, Megan."

When I tell Frenchies I've been to Amiens they always have a very surprised look on their faces and ask me one question... Why?... Allow me to justify.
After a relatively short train ride I was now in my third French Region and third Region capital. I walked to my next host's place, which turned out to be a massive 8 bedroom 3 story student apartment. Since the room next to his was currently vacant I received my own room... the owner probably wouldn't have been as impressed as I was. With my own room and a Belgium beer in hand within 5 mins of arriving I was once again reminded why I love Couchsurfing, strangers and travelling.
During the consumption of beers I said I would cook, my 4th time cooking the exact same meal for a host. To quote The Castle "Why go to a restaurant when this keeps coming up night after night?"... Chicken (if non vegetarian), mushroom and sun-dried tomato pesto fettuccine. It has impressed everyone so far.
On the way to the supermarket we stop by one of his flatmate's rooms. As I enter her room I am hit by a really unpleasant smell. She has cages full of animals in her room. A real life young French female version of Dr Dolittle. We all went to the supermarket where I purchased the food and they took care of the alcohol. When we returned we moved the lounges to the backyard and ate outside while listening to different styles of music.... Dr Dolittle was actually very nice and pretty cool for a crazy animal girl.
After dinner my host drove me around Amiens! Which has France's biggest completed cathedral by internal volume.
The next morning it was time to leave for the real reason I came to Amiens... The Australian War Memorial at Villers-Bretonneux. With all my luggage I boarded the very infrequent train to this tiny town where all streets, cafes, bars, parks and school are named after Australia, Victoria or Melbourne.
The war memorial was 2 km out of town and 3 km from the station. It felt quite fitting to be walking that distance carrying 30 kg of luggage. My struggle was nothing compared to that of the people that lay here in eternal rest.
I was the only person at the memorial when I arrived. After placing my luggage on the ground I stood in silence with my head bowed and eyes closed. In my head I quoted the Ode of Remembrance:
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Lest we forget.
I walked this massive graveyard comprising of over 2000 tombstones, half of which are Australian, with tears running down my face. It was incredibly overwhelming. At the end of the ground is a massive wall covered in the names of over 11 thousand Australians, that also died in France during WWI, with no known graves.
Travel the Globe and Experience the world is my blog covering my three year around the world adventures, experiences and lessons.

Concerning A Stranger From Spaceland
Part of:
From dreams I proceed to facts.
It was the last day of our 1999th year of our era. The patterning of
the rain had long ago announced nightfall; and I was sitting (footnote
3) in the company of my wife, musing on the events of the past and the
prospects of the coming year, the coming century, the coming Millennium.
My four Sons and two orphan Grandchildren had retired to their several
apartments; and my wife alone remained with me to see the old
Millennium out and the new one in.
I was rapt in thought, pondering in my mind some words that had
casually issued from the mouth of my youngest Grandson, a most
promising young Hexagon of unusual brilliancy and perfect angularity.
His uncles and I had been giving him his usual practical lesson in
Sight Recognition, turning ourselves upon our centres, now rapidly, now
more slowly, and questioning him as to our positions; and his answers
had been so satisfactory that I had been induced to reward him by
giving him a few hints on Arithmetic, as applied to Geometry.
Taking nine Squares, each an inch every way, I had put them together so
as to make one large Square, with a side of three inches, and I had
hence proved to my little Grandson that--though it was impossible for
us to SEE the inside of the Square--yet we might ascertain the number
of square inches in a Square by simply squaring the number of inches in
the side: "and thus," said I, "we know that three-to-the-second, or
nine, represents the number of square inches in a Square whose side is
three inches long."
The little Hexagon meditated on this a while and then said to me; "But
you have been teaching me to raise numbers to the third power: I
suppose three-to-the-third must mean something in Geometry; what does
it mean?" "Nothing at all," replied I, "not at least in Geometry; for
Geometry has only Two Dimensions." And then I began to shew the boy
how a Point by moving through a length of three inches makes a Line of
three inches, which may be represented by three; and how a Line of
three inches, moving parallel to itself through a length of three
inches, makes a Square of three inches every way, which may be
represented by three-to-the-second. xxx Upon this, my Grandson, again
returning to his former suggestion, took me up rather suddenly and
exclaimed, "Well, then, if a Point by moving three inches, makes a Line
of three inches represented by three; and if a straight Line of three
inches, moving parallel to itself, makes a Square of three inches every
way, represented by three-to-the-second; it must be that a Square of
three inches every way, moving somehow parallel to itself (but I don't
see how) must make Something else (but I don't see what) of three
inches every way--and this must be represented by three-to-the-third."
"Go to bed," said I, a little ruffled by this interruption: "if you
would talk less nonsense, you would remember more sense."
So my Grandson had disappeared in disgrace; and there I sat by my
Wife's side, endeavouring to form a retrospect of the year 1999 and of
the possibilities of the year 2000; but not quite able to shake of the
thoughts suggested by the prattle of my bright little Hexagon. Only a
few sands now remained in the half-hour glass. Rousing myself from my
reverie I turned the glass Northward for the last time in the old
Millennium; and in the act, I exclaimed aloud, "The boy is a fool."
Straightway I became conscious of a Presence in the room, and a
chilling breath thrilled through my very being. "He is no such thing,"
cried my Wife, "and you are breaking the Commandments in thus
dishonouring your own Grandson." But I took no notice of her. Looking
around in every direction I could see nothing; yet still I FELT a
Presence, and shivered as the cold whisper came again. I started up.
"What is the matter?" said my Wife, "there is no draught; what are you
looking for? There is nothing." There was nothing; and I resumed my
seat, again exclaiming, "The boy is a fool, I say; three-to-the-third
can have no meaning in Geometry." At once there came a distinctly
audible reply, "The boy is not a fool; and three-to-the-third has an
obvious Geometrical meaning."
My Wife as well as myself heard the words, although she did not
understand their meaning, and both of us sprang forward in the
direction of the sound. What was our horror when we saw before us a
Figure! At the first glance it appeared to be a Woman, seen sideways;
but a moment's observation shewed me that the extremities passed into
dimness too rapidly to represent one of the Female Sex; and I should
have thought it a Circle, only that it seemed to change its size in a
manner impossible for a Circle or for any regular Figure of which I had
had experience.
But my Wife had not my experience, nor the coolness necessary to note
these characteristics. With the usual hastiness and unreasoning
jealousy of her Sex, she flew at once to the conclusion that a Woman
had entered the house through some small aperture. "How comes this
person here?" she exclaimed, "you promised me, my dear, that there
should be no ventilators in our new house." "Nor are they any," said
I; "but what makes you think that the stranger is a Woman? I see by my
power of Sight Recognition--"
"Oh, I have no patience with your Sight Recognition," replied she,
"'Feeling is believing' and 'A Straight Line to the touch is worth a
Circle to the sight'"--two Proverbs, very common with the Frailer Sex
in Flatland.
"Well," said I, for I was afraid of irritating her, "if it must be so,
demand an introduction." Assuming her most gracious manner, my Wife
advanced towards the Stranger, "Permit me, Madam to feel and be felt
by--" then, suddenly recoiling, "Oh! it is not a Woman, and there are
no angles either, not a trace of one. Can it be that I have so
misbehaved to a perfect Circle?"
"I am indeed, in a certain sense a Circle," replied the Voice, "and a
more perfect Circle than any in Flatland; but to speak more accurately,
I am many Circles in one." Then he added more mildly, "I have a
message, dear Madam, to your husband, which I must not deliver in your
presence; and, if you would suffer us to retire for a few minutes--"
But my wife would not listen to the proposal that our august Visitor
should so incommode himself, and assuring the Circle that the hour of
her own retirement had long passed, with many reiterated apologies for
her recent indiscretion, she at last retreated to her apartment.
I glanced at the half-hour glass. The last sands had fallen. The
third Millennium had begun.
Footnote 3. When I say "sitting," of course I do not mean any change
of attitude such as you in Spaceland signify by that word; for as we
have no feet, we can no more "sit" nor "stand" (in your sense of the
word) than one of your soles or flounders.
Nevertheless, we perfectly well recognize the different mental states
of volition implied by "lying," "sitting," and "standing," which are to
some extent indicated to a beholder by a slight increase of lustre
corresponding to the increase of volition.
But on this, and a thousand other kindred subjects, time forbids me to
