TAGS help you narrow down the ladies by their physical descriptions and different services they provide during their sessions.
When you first select a tag you will be shown this page, listing all the ladies who have the chosen tag connect to their profile. For example if you chose 'brunette hair', you will see a list below of all the ladies with brunette hair. Beside each of the ladies will be a box titled 'Tags'. Within the box are listed all the tags attributed to each lady and you will see tags listed for some ladies which are not listed for others.
Narrowing down the list. Of that list of ladies, say that you are looking for a lady with brunette hair who has blue eyes. You would then find a lady out of your current list who has the tag 'blue eyes' in her tag box, then click on the 'blue eyes' tag. Now you have narrowed down your selection of all ladies with brunette hair that have blue eyes. You can keep narrowing down your list as you like until you have arrived at 1 or 2 ladies to choose from.
If you have changed your mind on one of the tags you have selected, at the top of the page you will see the tags you have selected, just click the small X in the corner of the tag you would like to remove. Now you are back to viewing the ladies ONLY with the tags you have selected. Enjoy.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - An 18-year-old man was arrested after a school resource officer at Englewood High School found a gun in a car in the visitor's parking lot Tuesday morning about the time school was starting, according to the Duval County School District.
Tamolis Clark (pictured, below) was booked into the Duval County jail on charges of carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a firearm on school property, possession of a weapon on school property and trespassing with a firearm on school property. At a first appearance before a judge Wednesday morning, Clark was ordered held without bond.
School officials say Clark is not a student of the school.
According to a letter sent home to parents and guardians from school Principal Corey Wright, at about 7:20 a.m., the officer noticed students going to and from a parked car in the visitors parking lot.
"The officer approached the vehicle to investigate, and in doing so determined that the driver had a firearm in his possession," the letter reads.
DOCUMENT: Letter sent home from school
According to a police report, the officer saw a .22 caliber pistol under Clark's legs on the floorboard. The gun was loaded, according to the report. A knife and other gun rounds were also found under the driver's seat, and a black skull cap and black gloves were found in the back seat, according to the report.
The officer also said a strong smell of marijuana was coming from the car.
Police were immediately contacted, and the suspect was apprehended without incident, according to the letter.
Clark told police he always carries a gun and knife on him. He said he got the gun from his grandfather.
A witness told police she was going to fight someone over two music groups, one of which Clark was a part of, and Clark was going to record the fight. She said Clark told her he was going to bring his gun to school to resolve an issue had with a student according to the report.
"This incident continues to remind us about the importance of school and student safety," Wright wrote. "Thanks to the current security measures in place, and the quick actions of those assigned to securing the parking area, the situation was quickly addressed."

Last year, we brought you 37 – that's right, 37 – of the world's worst movie posters. Each and every one-sheet had been hit with the bad photoshop stick so hard it was a tough job not to burst out laughing when you saw them at the bus stop. Today, we reveal our updated list, featuring 13 more 'beauties' for you to giggle, sigh and turn up your noses at – and to get you mentally prepared for just what's in store, we're kicking off with a killer: the original poster for the Oscar-winning The King's Speech. If this is what Best PIcture winners can get away with, imagine what else we have in store for you...
Stars butchered: Chris Brown, Idris Elba, T.I., Jay Hernandez, Paul Walker, Hayden Christensen.
What went wrong where: It's all wrong. There are just so many badly photoshopped heads in one poster it may well be a record. T.I.'s head is far too big for his body, as is Paul Walker's, and Hayden may well have lost his neck in a firefight somewhere. As for Michael Ealy on the right, he's definitely not really in that room, and he's definitely not holding that drink. And what's up with Chris Brown's hands, anyway? All in all, horrific. And very blue.
Did they fix it: Kind of. At least they remembered to include Matt Dillon in the poster, what with him being top billing and all.
Stars butchered: Bruce Willis, Matthew Perry, Amanda Peet, Natasha Henstridge, Kevin Pollak.
What went wrong where: *The original's poster was also a clunker, but here it's been outdone with Bruce's face (and his worryingly feminine legs), Matthew's face (who is looking at what, exactly?), their heights, perspective in general, and worst of all, Kevin Pollak's hands and face. It looks like he's had his fingers superglued onto the two stars and was then promptly sedated. The chicken, however, is excellent. Great work Mr. Chicken.
Did they fix it: *Oh no. In Germany, it got worse, where they added silhouettes for some reason, and in Korea, they cut out Kevin Pollak altogether. Which is an improvement, sort of.
Stars butchered: Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Uma Thurman, Colin Firth.
What went wrong where:** Jeffrey is looking very creepily at Uma's hair – it's great hair, but stop it now. As for Colin Firth, he's so in love, he's looking through* his love interest. Then there are the two male leads' forearms, which are officially, um, wrong… not to mention the flowers, which are so perfectly the same that you can't help but think: "Now there's some bad Photoshop." And if Colin's arm is as close to his chest as it looks like it is, that makes Uma… about 1mm wide. Argh.
Did they fix it: No sir, though God knows they tried. In one, Uma flies through the air in a wedding dress, ready to be caught by… neither of them, and in another, Colin manages to not look at Uma yet again, then there's the 'doodled face' series, which is so bad we dare not even link to it. Okay, fine then, but we warned you.
Stars butchered: Sandra Bullock, Bradley Cooper, Thomas Hayden Church, Ken Jeong.
What went wrong where: Who is looking at where is looking at who exactly? There's no one place that the eye is drawn to (apart from maybe the multi-coloured vomitorium that is Sandra Bullock's top) so you immediately think "What is everyone staring at?" If there was ever a poster that screamed "We just cobbled this together, but who the hell cares, it's a turkey", it's this one.
Did they fix it: They did it again, but with floaty heads! What is so damn interesting? And then, over in Germany, everyone's shiny and white. Which is nice.
Stars butchered: Eva Mendes, Nicolas Cage, Val Kilmer.
What went wrong where: Is that an absurdly large gun in your hand, or has someone just ruined a perfectly decent poster? Ah, the latter; it all makes sense now. Then, of course, there's the delightful Ms. Mendes, rendered startlingly non-delightful by the Photoshop makeover she's endured, where she's hoisting up her dress and revealing some cartoonish cleavage. Just the way you like it. *
Did they fix it: Well, yes. Apart from a particularly bad case of floaty head syndrome, everything else released was great. Especially this iguana-based number. Then again, we just love iguanas.
Stars butchered: Nicolas Cage.
What went wrong where: (Cracks knuckles) Where to begin? The lava lapping around his waist, the glass that's somehow in front of the poster, the incredibly ironic tagline, the fact that he's looking for his shoulder-holstered gun inside his shoulder, or that he doesn't actually have a gun in his hand. That's right, no gun. Where are those bullet holes from? An invisible assailant? Point anywhere on the poster and there's something wrong. Sad, but true.
Did they fix it: Not really. The other attempt was just a good ol' 'big face', highlighting Nic's hairline, forehead and all-in-all, resembling a giant mugshot. Almost as bad, but not quite.
Stars butchered: Jack Black, Mos Def.
What went wrong where: Sure, there's the whole scrappy Swede-ing aesthetic, and we get that, but there are a couple of shoddy errors so shoddy that we can't help but call them out. For one, Jack Black's head, which looks blu-tacked on (at best) and then there's his left leg, which appears to be incredibly box-like. Almost like Robocop, in fact.
Did they fix it: Well, yes they did, and a jolly good job it is too, maintaining the slapdash Swede feel as well as not being a Photoshop disaster. Korea, however, was less lucky, as Jack seems to grow in size. Spooky.
Stars butchered: Pamela Anderson, Denise Richards.
What went wrong where: Everything. Seriously, everything. The grass, the shadows (seriously, the shadows), the keep off the grass sign, the appallingly crap tyre tracks, the golf buggy rotated 90 degrees (and boiling a kettle while it's at it), the stuck-on heads, Denise's deranged face, Pamela's left knee, the screeching tyre on the golf bag, the unexplained geyser in the middle-distance… we could go on. And we have.
Did they fix it: No, but this DVD cover is a cracker. Seriously, sit back and enjoy.
Stars butchered: Tim Allen, Ray Liotta, Jeanne Tripplehorn, J.K. Simmons, Julie Bowen, Sigourney Weaver.
What went wrong where: Leaving the extended family behind the door for a moment, is it just us or is Tim Allen's chest very flat these days? Also, isn't Ray Liotta's head meant to be attached to his neck, not his shoulder? Is his leg cocked like that for a reason? Is he knee-ing the door? And why is Sigourney so obsessed with that particular piece of wood? Doesn't J.K. Simmons look a bit embarrassed about the whole affair? The only answer to all of these questions: bad Photoshop.
Did they fix it: No they did not. And with the film bombing as badly as it did, we're not that surprised.
Stars butchered: Zoe Saldana, James Marsden, Chris Rock, Martin Lawrence, Luke Wilson, Tracy Morgan, Peter Dinklage.
What went wrong where: In and of itself, this is a perfectly decent poster. All the big names are in there, Luke Wilson only looks slightly sedated, Zoe Saldana only a little bit like she's stepped out of pantomime school, and even the lily in Peter Dinklage's hand looks okay. Except there's one super-blunder that ruins it all. Where's James Marsden's nipple? Ah. Not so good. Once you see it, it's all you can look at. Sorry about that.
Did they fix it: Yes they did, and it doesn't look too shabby. Marsden's evil nipple is hidden by Chris Rock's arm, thank goodness.
Stars butchered: Sam Rockwell, Drew Barrymore, Kate Becksinsale, Robert De Niro.
What went wrong where: Sam and Drew look perfectly believable, jolly, lifelike. Just the kind of thing you'd want on a movie poster, in fact. Kate Benkinsale, though absurdly pretty, looks away into the far left for no real reason, and as for Robert De Niro… is that even really Robert De Niro? He's so whitewashed and scrubbed he's barely recognisable. And as for that hand / camera combo, is that meant to be Robert's hand? If so, is that physically possible? And the tree… well, the tree is just crap. That's final.
Did they fix it: Though it's pretty dull (De Niro sitting on a airport bench looking grumpy), at least it's obviously, definitely De Niro. Which is good.
Stars butchered: Jessica Alba, Dane Cook. *
What went wrong where: Um… er… the… um… well, there's the everything, not forgetting all of it, and, um, anything else we forgot to mention. This poster is so bad, so creepy, so disturbing, so unforgivably wrong, we truly cannot understand who in their right mind rubber stamped this: "Yes, we love it. Plaster it all over the country's billboards. The nation must see Dane Cook's sinister face, and quickly!" File this one under 'disaster zone' and 'John Lennon must be turning in his grave'.
Did they fix it: No they most certainly did not. There is no fixing the unfixable. Every single other poster released with this, though not as bad as this one, is truly horrific.
Stars butchered: Richard Dreyfuss, Nia Vardalos.
What went wrong where: There's the 'who or what is everyone looking at and why' conundrum that almost every badly Photoshopped poster suffers from, but then there's the legs, which seem dislocated and absurdly faked, as well as the shadows on the wall, which make no sense at all, and the almost sweet attempt at a heart in the clouds. Also, how tall is that lady in the hat? And how short is Richard Dreyfuss these days?
Did they fix it: Greece decided to one-up Italy here, seemingly gluing two characters to the bottom lefthand corner, Spain delivers a pretty respectable shocker, but the English edition also deserves some credit for creating the cheekiest picture of Richard Dreyfuss ever Photoshopped.
Stars butchered: Malin Akerman, Brendan Hines, one poor dog. *
What went wrong where: As if the picture of an immensely smiley Malin Akerman being licked by a dog weren't enough, they had to badly Photoshop an immensely smiley Malin Akerman being licked by a dog. Is that dog mid-jump? What's it leaping off? Isn't it worryingly massive in comparison to the human stars of the show? And as for the title font, that could well have been done on Paint.
Did they fix it: There's an even worse version with the dog licking his nose... for some reason.
Stars butchered: Josh Brolin, Megan Fox. *
What went wrong where: At first glance, this poster looks fine. Atmospheric, moody, all that jazz. But then you notice a few things that are a bit askew (and we're not talking about Jonah's scarred face) – though Megan is wearing a corset here, shouldn't she have a few more ribs than that? And why does Jonah have tiny, T-Rex arms? With those limbs, he'd barely be able to get anything out of his holster, let alone take anything out of his trouser pockets.
Did they fix it: Not really. A teal-and-orange car crash can be seen elsewhere, revealing Jonah's really strong arms, multiple light sources, and snow that could well be a shower of sparks.
Stars butchered: Clive Owen, Kiera Knightley, Ioan Gruffudd.
What went wrong where: Altogether, the most you can say about this poster is that it's boring, failing to bring about those epic expectations the movie really wanted, instead giving you the feeling this could well be a straight to DVD number. That said, Kiera Knightley is pretty, and she's looking great here, and, wait a second… the press release images of her in that pose reveal a slight disparity between the two shots. Especially around the chest area, shall we say…
Did they fix it: The expanding bosom of Kiera Knightley strikes again in a different one sheet, and the general feel of DVD-ness pervades throughout.
Stars butchered: Diane Keaton, Queen Latifah, Katie Holmes.
What went wrong where: Who are you and what have you done with Diane Keaton's head? There seems to be no logical reason why she's turned that way to do the Egyptian while greenbacks rain from the sky, but there she is, her head too big for her body, her left leg turned at an angle just… because. Why is she looking at Katie Holmes instead of the money? Why is her right hand not shown? Our thoughts: a gun. Or maybe even more money.
Did they fix it: Yes, but only through extreme measure – removing all pictures of the cast and replacing it with a black background. Desperate times…
Stars butchered: Kate Hudson, Dane Cook, Jason Biggs.
What went wrong where: This one went so wrong, Dane Cook wrote a blog about how bad it was. Here are a few excerpts: "Whoever Photoshopped our poster must have done so at taser point with 3 minutes to fulfil their hostage taker's deranged obligations." Then there's: "The left side of my face seems to be melting off of my skull… My character apparently has fallen in love with a strand of Kate Hudson's hair. Kate's mannequin is desperately in love with the inside of my right ear while Jason is half stunned, half corsage." He also points out that his skin looks like the "bathroom floor at Caesar's Palace", whereas his lips look like they've been blessed with "Maybelline Water Shine Diamonds Liquid Lipstick." And as for the sightlines? Completely shot.
Did they fix it: No sir. There's a fierce debate as to which is worse, to be honest.
Stars butchered: Almost too many to mention, so here are just a few: Ben Stiller, Amy Adams, Hank Azaria, Robin Williams, Steve Coogan, Owen Wilson.
What went wrong where: Hey, this looks like fun! Busy, but fun, full of top notch comedians playing intriguing historical characters from the past. Except, well, a couple of things really. Little Owen Wilson on his little horse is just, well, plonked there, with no reflection on the floor despite everyone else getting one, likewise for Steve Coogan, pasted on top of everyone else, and doesn't Ben Stiller look tall these days? But the Photoshop fail of fails is Hank Azaria stamping on the space monkey's foot. Why, Hank, why did you do it?
Did they fix it: Yep, the French version nails it. Less cluttered, fewer damaged monkey feet.
Stars butchered: Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Day-Lewis, Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz.
What went wrong where: This is just a mess. There seems to be an ungodly fascination with Daniel's crotch, so much so that paparazzi are fighting each other to take a snap of it. Then there's the mish-mash of different bodies alongside him, odd heights, sightlines, looks, shadowing – all clumsily glued together with these flashes of light that really fail to add anything. Penelope looks the most out of place, writhing as she does while a photographer on the left hand side takes a shot of her thighs.
Did they fix it: They tried so many times, but nothing really worked. Sex didn't really sell it, Celebrity squares didn't work - even Day-Lewis walking across a sofa didn't do it. Damn.
Stars butchered: Tim Robbins, Martin Lawrence
What went wrong where: It's true, Tim Robbins is a very tall man (6 foot 5 inches, in fact, making crawling through sewer tunnels all the harder) and Martin Lawrence is, well, a little on the small side (at 5 foot 7 inches), but those aren't their heads, no way, no how. Robbins's face looks like its been scrubbed with some steel wool and Lawrence's face looks glued on.
Did they fix it: Sweden had the right idea, adding in MASSIVE EXPLOSIONS in the background. BOOM! Etc!
Stars butchered: Eva Longoria Parker, Paul Rudd, Lake Bell.
What went wrong where: Eva Longoria Parker's picture here above the movie title raises a lot of bizarre questions. Why, for example, is one arm much longer than the other? Why does she have no wrists, knuckles, or kneecaps? Why does her necklace dangle down but not her hair? Is that the brightest cloud in the world? Answers, we have none. We could blame Photoshop, of course, so let's go for that.
Did they fix it: There is a slightly better version, if only because she's sitting up, not lying down. They do draw a tail and halo on her, however. For shame.
Stars butchered: Zack Ward, Dave Foley, Chris Coppola, Jackie Tohn, Verne Troyer, Mike Dopud.
What went wrong where: A student drama group would be embarrassed with this one. As it's for a Uwe Boll film, and given that his superpower seems to be being immune to embarrassment, it may have gotten through unremarked. Everyone is poorly cut out and pasted in, and the shadowing stopping barely after it starts. Verne Troyer is better than this. Seriously, he is.
Did they fix it: No they did not. George Bush and Osama are walking through some yellow liquid, maybe rapeseed oil, and Verne is waving at no-one in particular whilst sinking into it. Oh, and there's a massive explosion for no explicable reason.
Stars butchered: Bryan Greenberg, Uma Thurman, Meryl Streep.
What went wrong where: White background, cut out figures. This is not a good sign. If you take a closer look at Uma's top and Meryl's jacket, there're lots of bumps and lumps from, um, well, bad Photoshop. Nice to note that Bryan Greenberg, the unknown of the three, has his face totally obscured by the angle he's put in. But that's by the by, really, when it comes to Meryl's horrific sightline.
Did they fix it: No, they most certainly did not. France stuffs it up a notch, as does Korea, turning it into a would-be Love Actually.
Stars butchered: Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon.
What went wrong where: Is that… Kim Cattrall? Can it be? Can it really be? And perhaps that's meant to be Sarah Jessica Parker, is it? There's so much airbrushing going on everywhere in this poster, it's difficult to point the bad Photoshop finger at any one place. Actually, no it's not: the worst victim is Kim Cattrall and her bizarrely double-elbowed left arm.
Did they fix it: They photoshopped some sunglasses on Carrie in one, and make her head strangely large in another, and created a bizarre football-meets-high-heel number to cash in on the world cup.
Stars butchered: N/A
What went wrong where: Okay, this is not a Photoshop blunder, but we just thought we'd share. Look at the tips of the two snakes' tails. Follow them up to the heads, and… yep, they don't match up.
Did they fix it: Nah, not really. Spain made the background red, but that tail error lived on…
Stars butchered: Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst.
What went wrong where: At first glance, this looks like a genuinely excellent poster. The golden hue, the reflection of Doc Ock, the pair of them leaping across the city. Then you wonder: "Where's Mary-Jane's hand coming from? Because her arm can't be that long, can it?" Also, as it appears out of the darkness, it resembles Thing from The Addams Family crawling up Spidey's body. Also, is her thumb bizarrely short, or is it just us? We're getting really picky, we know.
Did they fix it: Yes, they did. This poster is a blip in an otherwise ace run – if you don't mind that half masked face / half revealed face one, anyway.
Stars butchered: Ashton Kutcher.
What went wrong where: It looks like Ashton has been beaten about the head with a gravestone and had a blind road-digger fix his face. At first glance, it's the protruding chin, then it's the nose, then it's the ear, then it's the chin again. It's all very sad, as we'll begrudgingly admit he's a very handsome man – why the need to mutilate him in Photoshop? Oh, wait, gotcha.
Did they fix it: No, they definitely did not. There's another shot with him in a pool where it looks like he's had sunglasses attached with sticky tape. Not good. And the French version? Sacré bleu!
Stars butchered: Jackie Chan, Amber Valletta, Madeline Carroll, Will Shadley.*
What went wrong where: First of all, it's trying desperately to look like another Spy Kids poster, with the streaming orange light and martial-arts-ready stances, but worse than that, far worse than that, in fact, is the grotesque bodies bad Photoshop has given the four stars. There's no way the 5'7" Jackie Chan is that tall, and there's no way his right leg is anywhere near that long. And if you look at his left hand, Jackie's index finger really shouldn't be at that angle.
Did they fix it: To be fair, they did. Jackie's face still looks very Photoshopped, and it's another BIG RED FONT on white background number, but it looks much better.
Stars butchered: Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker, Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans, Martha Higareda.
What went wrong where: Big picture of Keanu Reeves shooting a gun, looking mean? Can't go wrong with that. Then there are highlighted cut-out profiles of the other big names in the film below, also good, and wait, what? Where's Keanu's right index finger? It looks like it's disappeared. It's definitely not on the trigger, at any rate, so how the hell is that gun firing? Meaning that big, stern face of his suddenly looks very, very silly.
Did they fix it: No, and they repeat the no-finger-on-trigger blunder throughout the rest of their poster campaign.
Stars butchered: We'd like to say the four child stars, but we're reassured these aren't even photos of the right babies.
What went wrong where: Four Photoshopped infants, no puppy fat, all crossed arms, all wearing stuck on shades. They're glowing, freakishly, and their mouths all seem to be not belong to their faces, not to mention their heads not belonging to their bodies. The two on the right are the worst culprits: one screaming for some reason, the other looking, well, sleazy.
Did they fix it: Not really – and the DVD artwork could be even worse.
Stars butchered: Eva Mendes.*
What went wrong where: We don't want to poke too many holes in the poster – after all, it is essentially a picture of Eva Mendes in a skin tight leather number – but if you look at her left hand, it's all, kind of… flubbery. And though we'll accept that her right arm might be just out of shot, behind her torso, her right leg really ought to be visible, but it ain't. Sand Saref is just that impressive, we guess.
Did they fix it: Yes they did, there are a few good ones, including this yellow Indiana Jones Style one, and a three-sheet red tie series.
Stars butchered: Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Eva Mendes, Debra Messing, Jada Pinkett Smith.
What went wrong where: Everything, anything, all of it. Why has Meg Ryan's face melted – and why is she so short all of a sudden? Annette Benning has been over-Photoshopped so much it's hard to recognise her at all, and her head is left substantially bigger than anyone else's; Debra Messing and Jada Pinkett Smith's shared secret is so fake it may make you gag and Eva Mendes has suddenly taken a huge interest in her right breast. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.
Did they fix it: Not really – the 27 Dresses-style words-in-a-torso look didn't quite work out.
Stars butchered: Rider Strong, Corey Large, April Scott, James DeBello, Kaley Cuoco… the list goes on.
What went wrong where: It's safe to say that though the poster designers might want you to think they these guys are all in a bed, they definitely weren't when their photos were taken. James DeBello on the far right, for example, his right cheek photoshopped bizarrely, was definitely not in a bed. The legs and torsos they used, maybe, but not the heads, no way. But that's a minor quibble in what amounts to a car crash of photoshop mistakes, from the bottle of beer at the end of the bed to the sightlines that appear to be going here, there and everywhere. A how not-to guide, essentially.
Did they fix it: Not unless you count a picture of a lady in lingerie lying on the ground. Oh, you do?
Stars butchered: Joaquin Phoenix, Gwyneth Paltrow, Vinessa Shaw.
What went wrong where: Vinessa Shaw is a very good-looking woman… so why did they do that with her face? Her forehead looks wrong – but then again, at least she's actually looking at Joaquin (kind of), whereas Gwyneth is starting to smirk at something in the middle distance. As for the lighting, it's all over the shop, everyone glowing in certain places, just, you know, because.
Did they fix it: A simpler poster, complete with white background and photo reel effect, is also out there.
Stars butchered: Hayden Christensen, Mischa Barton, Kate Groombridge, Rosalind Halstead.
What went wrong where: The legs! The feet! They're attacking! And Hayden (who looks like he's been run down by a steam roller) swats a couple away nonchalantly as he stares into nowhere. Mischa also looks a bit flat, but has fewer inquisitive feet to be dealing with, and further up, you begin to wonder whose feet are meant to be whose, if they are indeed meant to be anyone's feet, and why they're there at all, and, and, and… it's all so confusing. Also, check out the lighting, which starts out strong from the right at the top of the poster, and then appears to come from the left at the bottom. Eeep.
Did they fix it: No! They made it worse on the DVD, somehow.
Stars butchered: Angelina Jolie
What went wrong where: A couple of things here: one, Angie's arm cannot be that long, it's just not physically possible, and two, considering the impressive size of the weapon she's holding, there's no way it could be that thin, either. But it gets worse: it seems that this poster is a rip-off in of itself, looking suspiciously like the poster for 2007's Juncture, which plays with a kneeling, "Forgive me father for I have sinned" angle.
Did they fix it: Yes they did, and they did it with style. And bending bullets.
Stars butchered: Pierce Brosnan, Greg Kinnear, Jennifer Connelly.
What went wrong where: So you've made a movie starring Pierce Brosnan, Jennifer Connelly, Marisa Tomei, Ed Harris, and Greg Kinnear, and you want to publicise this star-studded indie as best as possible. Naturally, you release this as your first poster.
A couple of questions, though. Why have you picked a picture of Jennifer Connelly – a woman universally regarded to be one of the goshdarn prettiest in the world – where she's squinting? And why is James Bond lit from a totally different angle to anyone else? And just how did Greg's arm twist that badly into that bible? And, um, why is it so bad, generally? For a film with such potential, it just looks so cheap…
Did they fix it? No, this the only poster released so far.
Stars butchered: James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Rose Byrne, January Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, Oliver Platt, Kevin Bacon… the list goes on and on.
What went wrong where: The bobble heads, ah, the bobble heads. There's so much that's so squiffy with this one that we think it's probably more fun for you to spot the blunders yourself. Besides, we already were pretty harsh about this one when it first came out…
What makes it more embarrassing is the fact that this poster may not be the worst the film's marketing department released – who can forget the silhouette-floaty-faces, after all?
Did they fix it? Well, they kind of did. The French version of the poster looks pretty damn good and then there's the reflected-pool posters, which we've always liked.
Stars butchered: Laura Linney, Mark Ruffalo.
What went wrong where: THEY ARE NOT HUGGING. NO-ONE HUGS LIKE THAT. NO-ONE. AND IF THEY DID, WHO WOULD TAKE A PHOTOGRAPH, THEN STICK ON THEIR WALL? COME ON!
Did they fix it? Yes they did – it's just a still from the film, but it's a good still from the film, and it works. Lovely stuff.
Stars butchered: Sigourney Weaver, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Gene Hackman.
What went wrong where: When we first released this badly photoshopped poster round-up, there was one poster above all others that Empire readers were keen to point out we missed: Heartbreakers. Now though it's not the most horrific poster ever photoshopped – Nic Cage's Bangkok Dangerous probably wins that prize – it does contain Gene Hackman seemingly leaping out of nowhere, and that's definitely something to be celebrated. That and Signourney Weaver's scarily photoshopped face. Seriously, it's spooky.
Did they fix it? Nah, not really.
Star butchered: Owen Wilson.
What went wrong where: We're happy to be wrong here, but is that really meant to be Owen Wilson's actual hand? How long is his arm? That besides, we forgot just how shiny Owen is getting these days. He looks almost… polished, even.
Did they fix it? Well, in France they added a woman's bum in bikini bottoms. How come we don't get the woman's-bum-in-bikini-bottoms addition, eh?
Stars butchered: Keanu Reeves, Vera Farmiga, James Caan.
What went wrong where: Everything, all things, everywhere. All three pictures of the cast are badly cut out from film stills, pasted onto an unremarkable street, and then on top of all that, someone's drawn all over it all with a white pen like it's post-match analysis time on Match Of The Day. Keanu's face pretty much says it all, really. Plus, James Caan is clearly offside.
Did they fix it? They did, actually – there's a pretty decent version where where you can see Vera's lovely, lovely face. Always helps a poster, that.
Stars butchered: Matt Damon, Emily Blunt.
What went wrong where: The perspective is horrific here, and Emily and Matt's shadows disappear too soon. Plus, there's the lighting, which seems to come from the top left, but the shadows don't reflect this… It's just a bit of a mess all round, really. Mr. Damon, Ms. Blunt, you deserved so much better.
Did they fix it? Well, it seems to be another case of the words-over-faces get-out clause, but it kind of works. Maybe.
Star butchered: Uma Thurman.
What went wrong where: The 'hair'. 'Nuff said.
Did they fix it? In terms of Uma's hair, no. In terms of anything else? Also no.
Star butchered: Paul Bettany.
What went wrong where: Almost nothing. Emphasis on the 'almost' there, mind. Looking from the top down, it's a pretty impressive poster – who knew Paul Bettany looked so good in wings, eh? – but as soon as you seen the weaponry in his hands, it all goes very wrong. Nothing screams 'afterthought' more than a shiny machine gun with totally different lighting to the rest of the poster jutting out at the bottom. The knife isn't much better, but honestly, was the addition of poorly photoshopped armaments worth it guys? Really?
Did they fix it? They almost do, and then you realise they haven't. One bus poster nearly hits the 'acceptable' mark before you realise that his gun is in the wrong hand, somehow. Bugger.
Stars butchered: Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke.
What went wrong where: At first glance, the main poster for The Expendables looks perfectly acceptable. Sure, it's not the most original one-sheet in the world – nine burly action heroes standing in bulletproof vests, staring at the camera, with their names cascading down above them – but it gets the point across: this is an action movie, full of action stars. There will be action, there will be guns, there will be blood.
Look closer however, and there are some problems. Big problems, in fact. Not only is Arnie not in the poster – the sacrilege! – but Mickey Rourke and Bruce Willis look like they've been drawn with a crayon. By a drunk man. In zero gravity. And this, ladies and gents, kind of ruins the rest of the poster. Just as well no-one took the pictures of Rourke and Willis out and put them on separate, individual posters, eh? Wait, what?
Did they fix it? Yes – by removing the actors' pictures entirely and going for a black-and-red-shiny-skull-covered-in-knives-and-guns number, which really, actually, genuinely worked.
Stars butchered: Gerard Butler, Jennifer Aniston.
What went wrong where: A couple of question for the poster designers here: What is Gerard Butler actually sitting on? Where is his arse? Doesn't Jennifer Aniston look a little too big here? And Gerry too small? And no, you can't peg this one on foreshortening, no way, no how…
Did they fix it? No – the other poster they released is almost just as bad as this one. Seriously, it was a tough call picking just one to put in the list…
Stars butchered: Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, Helena Bonham Carter.
What went wrong where: This was the first U.S. poster for a film that went on to win Best Picture at the 2011 Academy Awards. We repeat: this was the first poster for a film that went on to win Best Picture at the 2011 Academy Awards. A poster that seems to have turned all the stars into clay and then make them look in totally different directions for no apparent reason. In other words, it was a right royal cock-up, what?
Perhaps it serves as testament to the film's own strengths that everyone seemed to forget and/or ignore just how bad this one-sheet was and watch the movie anyway (several times, in some cases) – or maybe it's because subsequent posters did a much finer job, as seen by this words-over-face number here.
Did they fix it? As previously mentioned, yes, yes they did. You know, if you like your Kings covered in big floaty words, that is.
Stars butchered: Martin Lawrence, Brandon T. Jackson.
What went wrong where: Um, er… well, there's, um, everything. Yes, everything. How on earth did anyone think this was going to encourage people to watch the movie? How? HOW!?
Did they fix it? No, there's no fixing something as horrible as this.

STUDENTS from five county schools visited Malvern technology company QinetiQ to find out more about science and engineering.
The visit was part of an initiative by the company to inspire the next generation of engineers, scientists and technologists.
100 students from the Chase and Dyson Perrins in Malvern, Hanley Castle near Upton, John Masefield in Ledbury and Nunnery Wood in Worcester were introduced to cyber security and worked in teams programming robots to complete an obstacle course.
They also took part in a Raspberry Pi computing challenge and a demonstration of QinetiQ technologies and robots.
Ian Beresford of QinetiQ said: "We hope that the schools thoroughly enjoyed their time with us at QinetiQ.
"As founding members of the 5% Club, an industry-led campaign designed at raising the levels of apprentices and graduates across UK industry, we believe holding events like this can really help to show young people how exciting it can be to work at companies like QinetiQ.
"We hope we can continue to inspire the next generation, and look forward to continuing to work with local schools on similar activities in the future."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 14/11/2012 (1739 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Electrical resistance refers to how strongly a material opposes the flow of an electrical current, while conductivity refers to an object's ability to carry or conduct a current.
The path of least resistance, on the other hand, is the policy adopted by the Manitoba government in making decisions about Bipole III, the $3.3-billion transmission line to conduct electricity to southern Manitoba and the United States.
The latest example of political decision-making on the most expensive project in the province's history occurred Tuesday when Manitoba Hydro agreed to file a new environmental assessment on a revised route for the transmission line.
The Crown corporation had earlier told the Clean Environment Commission its route changes would be more environmentally friendly, apparently hoping such an assurance would be enough to proceed without an expanded review -- the path of least resistance.
But when aboriginal groups threatened legal action, the principle of conductivity was quickly turned on. There will be a supplemental review, even though Hydro had earlier warned too many delays could have catastrophic consequences, including rolling blackouts if the project isn't completed in five years.
Money is not an issue in the science of resistance and conductivity, but it is when planning a multi-billion-dollar transmission line. The right choice, according to Hydro's own experts, was the east side of the province because it was the shortest route and would have saved money in many ways, including the ancillary costs associated with the longer western route. The final cost of the western route could exceed $4 billion, according to some analysts, at least $1 billion more expensive than the eastern route.
The province, however, feared that aboriginal opposition and the environmental lobby would create too much resistance, so the line was moved to the west side of the province.
The government never made a convincing case that aboriginals on the east side, some of whom would have welcomed the line, could not have been persuaded to accept it. They might even be more agreeable than the aboriginals on the west side, who don't like what they see so far.
The environmental lobby was also an exaggerated fear.
The government trumpeted the value of a pristine wilderness on the east side, saying the area could eventually be recognized as an environmental jewel by the United Nations, but there's no evidence it couldn't achieve that status with a hydro line.
The Public Utilities Board, because of declining electricity export sales, is not even convinced there is a hurry to build the new line. New supplies of natural gas have also raised questions about whether Manitoba Hydro is planning for the right level of demand.
The NDP government has steadfastly refused to consider the possibility of less costly alternatives or even to build a case justifying the need for the dramatic increase in power transmission.
There is still time for the province to do a major rethink of its hydro policies, including the plan to locate Bipole III on the west side. In fact, as criticism mounts, a complete re-evaluation may turn out to be the path of least resistance.

Topic: Anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction - without cyst
Through ERCP last year, I was diagnosed with this abnormality (APBJ)and learned that my risk for biliary cancer is high. My gallbladder was removed last year as well (but not biopsied). This year my doctor did an endoscopic ultrasound to check for tumors in the bile ducts and found none. I'm wondering, what test can be done, if any, to screen for bile duct cancer in Tis or Stage 0?

CNSNews: By the time they leave elementary school, children should be able to "define sexual orientation," and by the eighth grade be able to "define emergency contraception and its use," according to a report containing controversial new recommendations for sex education in U.S. public schools.
"Ideally, comprehensive sexuality education should start in kindergarten and continue through 12th grade," says the "National Sexuality Education Standards" report, drawn up by a range of advocates, academics and public education officials.
The Future of Sex Education (FoSE), an initiative started by sex education advocates, developed the standards "to create a strategic plan for sexuality education policy and implementation."
Also involved are the American School Health Association, the National Education Association Health Information Network – the non-profit arm of the nation's largest teacher's union, the NEA – the American Association for Health Education and the Society of State Leaders of Health and Physical Education. An advisory committee includes senior officials from Planned Parenthood and the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN).

Chinese news seemingly capped grain prices Thursday night. Chinese officials announced early this morning that they were leaving their 2014 grain and cotton import quotas unchanged from this year. Given ideas that they will be forced to boost imports in the new year, that news seemed to cap early-morning rally attempts. December corn slid 0.5 cent to $4.5625/bushel early Friday morning, and May lost 0.5 cent to $4.77.
Technical buying appears to be supporting soybeans. Although the onset of the U.S. harvest is weighing upon the soy complex at this time, prices rose modestly overnight. Talk that the Asian palm oil market ended the week on a strong note probably provided considerable support. However, a look at the November soybean chart shows its price has bouncing from major technical support all week; that was again the case last night. November soybeans rallied 4.25 cents to $13.21/bushel in early Friday trading, while October soyoil advanced 0.19 cents to 41.98 cents/pound, and October soymeal added $1.1 to $417.5/ton.
The Chinese news seemed to weigh upon wheat prices as well. The wheat markets have recently rallied in response to ideas that having much of its winter wheat crop ruined will force it to greatly expand its imports during the coming weeks and months. News that Chinese officials have left their official import quota unchanged may be weighing upon prices. On the other hand, the fact that futures didn't react more significantly implies traders doubt they'll follow through on that point. December CBOT wheat slipped 0.75 cents to $6.775/bushel around dawn Friday, while December KCBT wheat was unchanged at $7.2725, and December MGE futures skidded 0.25 cent to $7.2425.
Cattle futures proved surprisingly firm in early Friday trading. Beef cutout values declined slightly Thursday afternoon, which seemingly boded rather ill for today's CME trading session. Bulls may simply be expecting steady-firm cash trading this afternoon. However, they may also be anticipating spillover strength from a bullish Hogs & Pigs report this later in the day. October cattle futures inched up 0.02 cents to 127.72 cents/pound early Friday morning, while December rose 0.07 cents to 131.65. Meanwhile, October feeder cattle sank 0.32 cents to 164.05 cents/pound, and January declined 0.45 cents to 166.60.
Look for directionless hog trading today. Although the nearby October hog future slipped somewhat overnight, the deferred contracts posted modest gains. Those reflected mixed cash and wholesale action Thursday afternoon. We don't look for a big futures move today, since traders on both sides of the market are likely to be adjusting positions ahead of this afternoon's (2:00 PM CDT) quarterly Hogs & Pigs report from the USDA. October hog futures dipped 0.12 cents to 92.67 cents/pound in early Friday action, while December bounced 0.22 cents to 87.95.

Discussion of the nature of Ultimate Reality and the path to Enlightenment
Shahrazad wrote:Tomas, why are you calling Carl "the feminine mind"? I don't think that description does him justice.
Hillary Clinton, US secretary of state, sought on Sunday to head off a spat with Russia after it was angered by comments by Joe Biden, US vice-president .
The Kremlin had demanded clarification of remarks in which Mr Biden suggested that Russia would be forced to improve relations with the US because its economy was "withering".
Mr Biden had told the Wall Street Journal that Russia had "a shrinking population base", "a withering economy", and "a banking sector and structure that is not likely to be able to withstand the next 15 years". He added: "They're in a situation where the world is changing before them and they're clinging to something in the past that is not sustainable."
Carl G wrote:Shit, Tomas, reviving a thread from July to link to one more item of crap about one of the shallowest non-statespersons ever to clog the national political scene.
Think I'll dredge up that thread from 2005 sharing the toilet habits of our forum members.
Carl G wrote:I don't have to click to see those two ugly names up at the top of the board, Palin and Biden. Yuck and Yuck. Don't you have any taste?
Anyway, Dumbass? I thought we were friends.
Carl G wrote:Again, I do not need to click the thread to see the ugly names of Biden and Palin when I open the forum. This has nothing at all to do with opening the thread. Is that clear?
So who is Sarah Palin? She is a 44-year-old former beauty pageant winner from Idaho who received her degree in journalism from the University of Idaho in 1987. She has been governor of Alaska since 2006. That's about all that is really known about her. Oh and she is in favor of drilling in ANWR and the Second Amendment.

Presidential debates have become must-see TV, but many argue debates don't sway the final poll as much as when such political slugfests were the first chances most voters got to see the candidates square off.
In today's cyber-charged mass media arena, candidates and their opposing views are vividly portrayed and analyzed long before the hopefuls step to the podiums. With party lines holding firmly, more voters than ever seem to have made up their minds long before the first debate punches were thrown; they tend to highlight the sound bites that reinforce their predispositions.
Constructive Exercise
This isn't a setup for insight into my political preference. I do endorse considerably more bipartisan, fact-based, solution-aimed debate than the charges being proffered by both sides to gain the minimum electoral and congressional majority.
Debate used to be a more constructive exercise in the retail business, too. In many cases today, though, it seems the buyer/seller relationship discourages a potentially productive exchange of opposing views.
It has become a common perception that buyer demands are set in stone before vendors have made their pitches. And buyers cast the deciding votes.
I hear frequently about experienced sales people becoming increasingly reluctant to challenge the mandates of less experienced buyers for fear of being shown the door. The situation underscores the difficulty for sellers to influence buyers whose marching orders could be coming from accounting offices as often as merchandising offices.
Joint Responsibility
Predetermination can block the competitive and fiscal progress that ultimately should be the joint responsibility of buyers and vendors.
Retailers, even as they must adhere to mandated financial guidelines, can discover untapped growth potential by being more open to the suggestions of their vendors. Vendors, even as they must absorb the requirements imposed by retailers, should remain steadfast in their efforts to get customers to embrace their propositions.
Declare Victory
One housewares executive recently told me about a salesperson resigned to lose a bid after a meeting with a particularly inflexible buyer. The executive advised the salesperson to consider another occupation.
The volatility of the economy by now should have erased some of the rigid presumptions in the buyer/seller dynamic. It should have ushered in a new era of cooperation that encourages both sides to express their views. Why shouldn't all business parties get to declare victory by keeping their collective focus on what's best for an overwhelming majority of their consuming public?
There needs to be more constructive debate in the retail business if it can help shape a more productive outcome. But such debate is useless if the decisions have already been made.

Worker in construction accident has died
Fire crews were on the scene Jan. 23 at an industrial accident outside of the Walmart SuperCentre at the Highstreet shopping centre on Mt. Lehman Road.
WorkSafeBC has confirmed that a man involved in an industrial accident on Jan. 23 in Abbotsford has since died of his injuries.
The worker was involved in construction at the new Highstreet shopping complex at Highway 1 and Mt. Lehman Road. He was using a scissor lift when he was crushed between the lift and an overhead canopy.
Emergency crews had to use the "jaws of life" to extricate the man from the bucket of the scissor lift. He was first taken to Abbotsford Regional Hospital and then airlifted to Royal Columbian Hospital's trauma centre.
The man's name, age and other details were not released.

"These looked fabulous. I was having a buffet and did not need the option lines for the entrees, and it was very easy to get those removed during the design process. I loved being able to see the digital proof before I finalized my order. I love this company!"
"I absolutely love these classy yet simple RSVP cards. We were able to add our primary wedding color in lieu of the color options offered. They could not have turned out more perfect!"
"I love this RSVP card! I would highly recommend it. When I was customizing the designs I actually am not having a food choice for the guest so I did not need the 3 different lines for the food choices. I worked with the designers and they came up with an amazing alternative. I am so excited as well to see what my guest will put on the back of the RSVP cards where it ask for any song suggestions! I think that is my favorite part!"
"As far as response cards go this design was a beautiful compliment to the invitation set. It didn't take away from it or overwhelm it. The scroll detailing on the left side gave it enough uniqueness to make your invitation look fancy (since it is the first thing your guests will see when they pull the invitation set out). I only opted for the signature 120 lbs stock card paper, and it worked well for this. The paper is textured and not smooth which adds very nicely to the beauty of the response card. Ordered this late Friday evening (11pm) with the rest of my invitations and enclosure cards, and received it all the following Thursday. Very sweet 6 day turn around."
"I absolutely loved this whole look!!! I like the vintage feel and everyone who has seen them is complementing on how different from the norm the invites look..."

I am new to these forums and registered because I have a few questions regarding a University project I am currently working on.
We are aiming to build a predictive model that basically does the following:
-Gets youtube tag data from the top viewed videos in specific youtube categories over a period of a week.
-List these tags according to popularity and for example save the top 100/500/whatever.
-Crossreference these top tags with google trends performance of these tags.
-End up with a list of most talked about products
I was wondering if something like this is even possible in python and if people could give pointers as to how I would achieve building this. I have been toying around with dozens of scripts, api's and other prewritten code as we are quite a novice team but I have not even come close to something like the model as we envision it.

This listing is for one large jar weighing 7 1/4 oz. of this Wonderful Nut oil Free and Paraben Free Face Mask. I call this Mask my Miracle in a jar! I have over active pores in my face which cause's my face to be over oily. For years I have searched for a solution to my problem. Trying every over the counter, and proactive treatment out there which only lead to more disappointment. I never realized my own creativity held the key to my cure. This mask not only deep cleans your skin, but it also balances oil control for hours on end! When you do your deep clean facial treatment this mask will pull all of your black heads, and white heads to the surface of the skin. It is basically extracting the ewwy gewy stuff from your face making it look younger, radiant, and beautiful. This Mask contains Dead Sea Mineral Mud from Jordan, Australian green olive clay, Kaolin white clay, Rose Geranium floral water, Goats Milk, and Honey. This Mask is totally free of any Nut Oils, and is Paraben-free. For Daily Oil Control: In the morning apply a light layer to the skin for approximately 1 or 2 min then rinse. Weekly Deep Cleansing Mask Treatment: For a Deep cleansing treatment apply a slightly thick layer on the face. Leave on for 10 -15 min then rinse. No need to even remove makeup or wash your face before mask treatment as this mask will do it for you! Deep cleansing mask only needs applied once or twice a week. Mud from the Dead Sea has a high salt and mineral content, all of which are essential for the body. The mud infuses the skin with minerals leaving it clean, refreshed and hydrated. Dead Sea mud has the dual purpose of exfoliating as well as being as a natural cleanser. It not only removes toxins and impurities from the skin, but also tightens and tones the skin, improves blood circulation, hydrates the skin and aids in skin regeneration. Australian Olive Green Clay: Strengthening for all skin types, Australian Olive Green Clay is the strongest of all clays for detoxification and is beneficial for use on acne-prone and oily skin. Minerals in the clay help to re-balance oil flow, strengthen the skin, and aid in the repair of scars. It is ideal for body wraps after pregnancy, where cellulite or stretch marks are of concern. Kaolin Facial Scrub White Clay: This soft and gentle clay is generally non-sensitizing, and helps to remove oil from the skin keeping the nose from looking shiny. Honey Powder: Its antiseptic properties inhibit the growth of certain bacteria and help to keep external wounds clean and free from infection. As such Honey Powder can be used as part of balms or healing salve. Honey Powder is said to have anti-aging properties. Honey is a humectant, having the ability attract and retain moisture, and to rebuild the moisture level in the skin without making it oily. Goats Milk contains high levels of Vitamin A, C, B1, B12, plus the wonderful anti aging properties of Vitamin E plus zinc, alpha hydroxy acids, proteins and minerals. These wonderful properties will nourish and feed the skin while zinc helps to reconstruct collagen, encouraging moisture retention and elasticity slowing down the effects of aging and skin damage. Goats milk is rich in beta-hydroxy and lactic acids that act as natural skin conditioners because they exfoliate dead skin cells promoting smooth radiant skin. It contains caprylic acid which helps maintain the PH of the skin while assisting to maintain a slightly acidic mantle which is necessary for healthy skin. It also has a pH that is close to the human skin making it mild on extremely sensitive skins including those that suffer from dermatitis and eczema.

It's been a while but this month I'm excited to say that our Member of the Month winner was my nomination. Please join me in congratulating cydewaze for his contributions around this place and then go get yourself a coffee and have a read of his interview.
How did you first come across SP and what made you stay?I won't deny using the forum search feature on this one to "refresh" my memory
I stopped in for some CSS help back in 2006. My office was kicking off a complete facelift of our website, and I was determined to ditch the table layout infavor of CSS. I got some really helpful advice and the people here seemed nice, so I stuck around. Another reason I stuck around was the fact that SitePoint has a ColdFusion forum, and good CF help can be hard to find. I'm also a huuuge fan of Sitepoint books!
How has your life changed as a result of being voted MotM?"Fame and fortune and everything that goes with it, I thank you all"
You spend a lot of time around the SQL forum. What is it that you do for a living?I work for the US Dept of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, and I manage a portion of the agency's website. We're in the process of an office-wide redesign, and the new pages are partially driven by a custom CMS that I created in ColdFusion. Since any dynamic website uses SQL, I'm constantly in the SQL forums bothering the smart people there - especially poor rudy!
I also spend a good bit of time in the ColdFusion forum, where I routinely find solutions to my unique and bizzare problems.
How did you get into that line of work? Were you formally trained or did it just happen?I started off some years ago doing CAD, then moved into network administration. I set up some LANs for small businesses in the area, then got a job with a company that put me into a tier 2 helpdesk support role. I can't remember why I decided to learn HTML, but I did it the old fashioned way - with a web tutorial and notepad. I slowly migrated to learning CSS, then a little bit of PHP, then CF.
I do have formal training in CF in the form of 3 (and counting) CF courses from a local tech school. Betwween what I learned there and here on Sitepoint, I can get most things figured out.
What tools can't you live without? (We're talking web stuff here…)Oddly enough, Adobe (formerly Macromedia) Dreamweaver. We get tons of web documents sent to us in MS Word format, and DW is really good for converting those docs to "real" HTML. I also have a copy of CF Builder 2, but I use DW far more.
Other "must have" tools are mostly Firefox extensions - The web developer toolbar, color contrast analyzer, and I'm trying to use Firebug more. Xenu link checker is also pretty handy.
If you met someone that was brand new to web development, what would your number one piece of advice to them be?RUN!! Ok, just kidding. I think I'd tell them to learn to code without relying on a web editor to do it for you, which is probably the same advice that's been around for years. I'd also tell them to learn proper SQL to go with whatever server-side language they chose to learn, because even with my limited SQL knowledge, I run into pages that look great on the outside but have a mangled mess of SQL on the inside that grinds the page to a crawl. I think it's important to learn every language you're going to use, and not just in a "well enough to get by" manner.
I see that you're from the US. Is that where you were born and bred or is it a lifestyle choice?I was born in Upstate NY and moved to the DC area in 1980 when my parents moved here after my stepdad got a job offer from CSC (a company I later worked for myself). I'm sticking around the area for now, however my wife is Canadian, so we're trying to figure out how to move there someday so we can be closer to our cottage.
Do you have a 'real life'? Any interesting hobbies?I'm an avid cyclist, and before I got married I used to ride between 3000 and 5000 miles a year. I ride less now since my wife and I travel so much, but I still enjoy riding, and she does too. Between the two of us, we have 7 bikes (road & mountain), so you could say it's one of our primary forms of recreation.
I also enjoy skiing, cars, photography, and I have a cool slot car track in our basement. My wife and I are both serious U2 fans, so we follow them around the world whenever they're on tour. For this last tour we saw them in England, Scotland, Greece, Toronto, North Carolina, California, as well as here in MD and DC.
Do you believe that there are really girls on the internet?What are girls? Are you talking about those strange people with webcams who always ask me for my credit card number?
Who do you think would win in a fight to the death - a cow or a horse?Depends on whether or not the cow was free-range and grass fed.
And your chance for shameless, unmoderated, self promotion... Is there a website that you'd like to draw our attention to?I guess I'll throw a plug out for my wife's website, which would have definitely looked a lot worse without the help I got here on Sitepoint, and the logo contest we had on 99designs! http://www.xpressdanceclasses.com/
Very, very nice interview and awesome responses, cydewaze! Well deserved indeed!
whaddya mean, "poor rudy"?
it's a pleasure working with someone like you who appreciates coding elegance
and i, too, am an avid cyclist, so i knew there was a reason i liked you
congrats, and well deserved
Congratulations, cydewaze. What an interesting bunch of hobbies. I'm a recent convert to cycling, but will take a while to get anywhere near 3000 miles in a year. Your dedication to U2 is a little ... well ... overwhelming. CDs are simpler.
lol thanks everyone. I'm a bit shy when it comes to public stuff, so I was sweating bullets writing answers that I knew people might actually read! :lol:
Oh and ralph, I can always blame the U2 madness on my wife
Congratulations! It was a great interview and a fun read. Well done... both of you
Congratulations and great Interview. It's always nice to get an insight into what are members are about
Rudy, you forgot to mention you both like Canada too. Well, unless you don't of course (:
COngratulations Well deserved!
Congratulations! (I always knew we Ubuntu folk were special. )
Indeed! Though I'm still on 10.10 (the Unity thing spooked me). I even have an ubuntu theme on my smartphone.
I upgraded to 11.04, after reading that I could switch to the "classic" desktop if I wanted. In fact, I never did and I've got used to working with Unity. It's so easy to adapt to that even my husband can cope with it. :lol: Now, my only problem is when I use my laptop, which isn't that often. I stick to LTS versions on that, so it's still running 10.04 and I get really confused going back to it. (:
Now that's really cool. I don't even have a smartphone.
I'm sure it's been no bed of roses.
Congratulations! Liked the interesting interview !
I've actually just installed xfce on my Ubuntu machine. Unity is awful, I tried Gnome 3 but that's pretty unusable too (no minimise buttons, really?). Eventually I installed xfce, it's a lightweight desktop, pretty much like Ubuntu used to be
I knew someone would get the reference!!
Good interview, congratulations on winning the December MofM Award! :tup:

Did you know?
Some of the gallery's exhibits date as far back as the 15th century.
The Durban Art Gallery showcases artwork dating as far back as the 15th century right up to the present, which are on show on a rotational basis. The diversity at this art gallery in Durban (eThekwini) makes for an accurate representation of the many histories of the KwaZulu-Natal region.
The Museum was created when Cathcart William Methven, harbour engineer at the time, gave one of his paintings to the Town Council in 1892. Since then, various donations and purchases were made to build up the collection. The collection was boosted in 1920 when Colonel R.H. Whitwell, art connoisseur and philanthropist, presented over 400 works to the Gallery.
Among the items donated were British, French and Dutch paintings, objets d'art such as French and Chinese ceramics, early glass vases by Lalique and bronzes by Rodin.
The diversity of the donation established the character of the foreign collection. From the 1970s on, many works of local artists and craftsmen were added to this Durban African art collection, and the Gallery's collecting focus is now largely concentrated on works that reflect the rich multi-cultural diversity of Durban (eThekwini) and South Africa.
The Durban Art Gallery promotes art awareness and the art and culture of KwaZulu-Natal through a variety of activities such as workshops and films.

Lyles scores lone Rockies run in loss to Giants
Righty solid for six, but Rox held to just four hits to cap low-scoring set
SAN FRANCISCO -- Another game at pitcher-friendly AT&T Park for the Rockies, another rough game in the batter's box for their injury-depleted lineup.
The Rockies recorded just four hits on Thursday afternoon and lost to the Giants for a third consecutive game, 4-1. In the four-game series, the Rockies totaled just six runs.
"It's always a little weird when we get together," manager Walt Weiss said. "It's always tough scoring runs when you come in here. Not only because of the park, but because of the guys they've got taking the mound over there."
Thursday's opposing pitcher was Yusmeiro Petit, who was given the starting nod after Tim Lincecum's recent struggles banished him to the bullpen. Petit had his best start of the season, as he allowed just one run on the four hits and struck out nine in six innings. He made some history in the process, too.
Petit broke a Major League record in the third inning. His strikeout of Charlie Culberson gave him 46 consecutive retired batters, which broke Mark Buehrle's all-time record.
The streak was snapped one batter later when Rox starter Jordan Lyles roped a double to left. An ensuing single by Charlie Blackmon gave the Rockies their first run of the game.
"He started me off with a cutter, and I was just looking for another over the plate, and he left it over the plate a bit," Lyles said. "I'll definitely be a trivia question down the road somewhere."
Former Giants prospect Jackson Williams recorded his first Major League hit in the fifth inning. He's not sure where he'll display the ball, but did know that familiarity with Petit -- from working with him at Triple-A Fresno while in the Giants' organization -- helped in the batter's box.
"I knew what he could throw," Williams said. "It was just a matter of hitting it."
That's precisely what Gregor Blanco did to begin the scoring in the second.
Blanco launched a 2-1 offering from Lyles atop Levi's Landing to give the Giants a 2-0 lead in the second.
"I tried throwing a cutter up and in," Lyles said. "I left it over the plate and he got it up in the air."
The Giants added their third run in the sixth, when Hunter Pence's bases-loaded sacrifice fly scored Angel Pagan. They threatened to blow the game open in the seventh, but Matt Belisle pitched out of trouble after Buster Posey flied out to right with runners on the corners and two out.
Despite the three runs, Weiss was impressed by Lyles' serviceable first career start at AT&T Park. The 23-year-old righty gave up three earned runs on four hits and three walks in six innings.
"He kept us in position to strike late and win the game, so I thought Jordan definitely did his part," Weiss said. "[The starters] have done a pretty good job of that in the second half, even though we haven't won a lot of games."
Lyles saw things a bit differently.
"Too many walks," Lyles said after being asked if he was encouraged by his ability to minimize damage. "Shouldn't have put myself in that situation to start with."
Had his lineup generated a bit more offense, his glance back at the situation may have differed, but the Rockies only batted with a runner in scoring position twice, and four runners were stranded on base.
The Rockies were unable to muster a hit in three innings against the Giants' bullpen, and they have now lost 26 of their last 30 road games.

Penn, which has now matched the best eight-game start in program history (6-2), led by as many as 16 and played from ahead nearly the entire game. But Miami took its first lead with 1:54 to go and led by four with 90 seconds remaining at BankUnited Center.
The Quakers had no timeouts left, but remained poised. Senior Meghan McCullough calmly hit a three from the wing to pull Penn within one with 1:21 to go. Then after a defensive stop, Kara Bonenberger missed a pair of shots, but each time battled for her own rebound against several Hurricanes. Finally, the ball trickled out of bounds and Penn retained possession with that effort with 11 seconds to go.
On the inbounds, the ball was worked around to Allen at the wing, who was set to continue the play with a pass, but saw her defender out of place and headed for the basket. She sunk the layup for the final two of her career-high 18 points and gave Penn the lead back.
Miami (8-5) got off a deep three, but it was off the back iron and the Quakers pulled off their sixth straight win. It matches the longest winning streak under Coach McLaughlin and is currently the program's longest non-conference win streak in 13 years.
"This is obviously a huge win for our program," said head coach Mike McLaughlin, "and it is well-deserved for our players who have put in the time, effort and commitment, and it is an incredible feeling to see them rewarded for that today."
"I have a deep respect for Penn, and I loved watching them on film," said Hurricanes head coach Katie Meier, who has led Miami to three straight NCAA tournament appearances. "At a certain point, Penn was playing so well and...the team that wanted it more and was playing their guts out was Penn. That team won."
The storyline leading into this one was the Homecoming of senior captain Alyssa Baron, who is a Miami, Fla., native and currently ranks in the top-five all-time at Penn in nearly every major category. And she did not dissapoint her very large and loud cheering section behind the Penn bench.
Baron nearly had a double-double with 14 points and eight assists. Though it was a complete team effort throughout as Penn had 18 assists on 22 baskets and nine different Quakers scored.
The Quakers came out with a ton of energy on both ends of the floor. Allen had two quick buckets and then Kathleen Roche, McCullough, Renee Busch and Baron each hit a three in a 12-0 run to give Penn a 20-7 lead at the 12:28 mark.
Miami scored six straight, but Penn responded with seven in a row and led 27-13 after Baron sunk another three. The Quakers built that lead to 16, 40-24, and took a 14-point lead into the half, 40-26.
The Hurricanes played with some passion to start the second half and closed the Penn lead to eight within the first three minutes. But the Quakers were undaunted on the road.
McCullough and the Quakers handled Miami's full-court pressure throughout the game and then forced a key turnover off some of their own. After Allen hit a three, Baron stole the ball in the backcourt and Sydney Stipanovich converted a layup for a quick five points to steal momentum back. That put Penn up 47-34 with 15:09 to play.
Miami once again got within eight, 50-42, with 12:33 to go, but the teams traded buckets for the next six minutes or so.
That's when the Hurricanes went on a run. A 60-52 lead with 6:07 remaining evaporated over the next four minutes. Miami tied the game at 62-62 with 2:32 left and then took its first lead moments later. The deficit was four when McCullough hit the clutch three-pointer to set up Allen's winner.
Allen was two rebounds shy of a double-double and added three assists in 38 minutes. Baron was 4-of-6 from three-point range and also contributed five rebounds and a pair of steals in a memorable Homecoming. McCullough had nine points and just one turnover in 39 minutes against heavy pressure. Bonenberger finished with five points and six rebounds, while Stipanovich had nine points, six rebounds and four blocks in 32 minutes off the bench.
Penn entered the game shooting below 20 percent from beyond the arc. But that was in 2013. In the New Year, Penn was an impressive 11-of-23 (47.8%) from three and shot 22-of-51 (43.1%) overall.
Meanwhile, the Quakers held Miami to 38 percent shooting (27-of-72) and 3-of-18 (16.7%) from three-point range. Miami won the rebounding battle, 46-37. The Quakers had 15 turnovers, but forced 10 miscues from the Hurricantes.
Penn has now won two straight games in dramatic fashion. Prior to the holiday break, Baron hit the game-winner jumper with 2.6 seconds to go in a 46-44 win over city rival Drexel on Dec. 21. The Quakers, who had lost all 13 previous games against ACC opponents, also won their first game in the state of Florida since 1982 in their first trip to the Sunshine State in 20 years.
The Quakers will stay in Miami through Thursday and then return home to Philadelphia where they will prepare for a home game against Norfolk State on Sunday at 2 p.m.

Greetings, newbie here
I want to create a simple one page to sell one product, i need one of those applications that one must enter his mail to get a sample, then he gets the sample either by redirect or into his mail.
i would like to know what kind of code I'm looking for, and are there any pre made. free or to buy?
thank you
There are open source ecommerce platforms that could just handle one product, but will likely be way overkill and given you don't seem to have a strong programmatic background it may not be the right approach. Here the google search for a number of these open source simple ecommerce
What you are asking for is not overly hard for an intermediate php programmer to handle. Have you thought about contracting someone to do this?
You are unlikely to find basic code that will do exactly what you need. It is more likely that any code you get, you will need to adapt, which will require technical skills. Even the ecommerce systems require a knowledge of installing them on a web-server. Many will need creating a database, registering a Secure Certificate (HTTPS), having a bank api (an a internet banking account) for processing sales unless you don't plan to have money transaction on your site; although then it is not selling a product it is just advertising it. So you need to consider these things.
all i want to have is one page to sell the product but also the button that you click once you enter your email to get the sample of the book.Than you get the link where to download.
You still need a host, server side code (PHP), and a site design which even for a simple site can cost you $300 - $500 for a basic design which may or may not cover the PHP needed for this. You also need some permission structure to stop people bypassing your form and just jumping to the download page. This involves some somewhat technically challenging ideas.
Again you are unlikely to find a script 'out-of-the-box' to do this, so you either learn how to code this yourself or hire someone with the knowledge to get it done faster.
looks like it is better for me to just make a simple page, put the download link and a 30 day guarantee and if people dont like it they can get a refund!
But even for that download link i need a program right?
A simple page with a download of a sample PDF does not require back end PHP. You can link to a PDF and set file disposition to download (rather than opening the document in their browser). The link to the PDF using an
download sample chapter
thanks this is useful, but you do not get the mails form people who are potential customers..
i may use that and have two links one for the sample and the other for paypal!But tell me even for a paypal link to download you need a redirection? They pay and add to cart right? then they can download? Still a program gives them those options...
For what I think you want to do, just login to PayPal, click on Merchant Services, then on Create payment buttons for your website, then on Option 1 - Create Payment Button, Fill out the 3 steps and click Create Button (be sure to create a success page that would have the download link and provide that URL to PayPal), paste the HTML on your webpage.
Yes, someone may figure out how to access the Success page without using PayPal, but you can likely ask for help on verifying the user came from PayPal when loading that page. If the request to go to that page didn't come from PayPal, then redirect the user else where (again, might not be 100% fool proof, but it is simple enough).
Thanks for the reply and the paypal procedure, are you saying that eventually all of those selling sites are easily bypassed but because most people do not know how they do not even try?
Yes, I would argue that the typical customer (who isn't into technology would have no idea how to bypass your PayPal setup).
However, I've done a bit more searching, and here are a few pre-built solutions that may fit your needhttp://www.mals-e.com/paypal_offer.phphttp://www.maiancart.com/http://www.vibralogix.com/linklokipn/http://www.phpkobo.com/ipn_emailer.php
Most of the above were taken fromhttp://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/e-commerce/paypal/

ATLANTA, Ga. - The Fulton County Department of Health and Wellness is warning residents about a new strain of norovirus that is spreading.
The department has investigated several outbreaks of gastrointestinal disease associated with food service establishments.
Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and stomach cramping. Some people may have fever, chills, headache, muscle aches and a general sense of tiredness.
The most important step in controlling the spread of this virus is regular hand washing with soap and water.
Experts said noroviruses are notoriously difficult to kill with normal cleaning and disinfecting procedures.
There is no specific treatment for norovirus.
The CDC recommends that employees of food service establishments remain vigilant in executing the following procedures.
-Do not prepare food while sick or three days after the illness ends
-Wash hands carefully and frequently with soap and water
-Wash fruits and vegetables and cook shellfish thoroughly
-Clean and disinfect kitchen utensils, counters, and surfaces that may have norovirus on them
-Wash table linens, napkins, and other laundry thoroughly

The annual summer escape to Ontario's Prince Edward County where you can enjoy sun, sand, wave good company, great food and wonderful music, rolls around this year from Aug. 12 to 17, when the 14th annual edition of the Prince Edward County Jazz Festival takes place. Music buffs should know that this year's highlights include tributes to the late jazz greats Dave Brubeck and Jim Hall, plus a George Gershwin-themed concert.
The tribute to Brubeck, who died in December 2012, takes place Thursday, Aug. 13, featuring the quartet of Montreal saxophonist Remi Bolduc presenting its take on the late pianist's classic album, Time Out. The following night finds four Toronto guitarists (Reg Schwager, Lorne Lofsky, David Occhipinti, Rob Piltch) paying homage to their hero Hall, who died last year.
For the Gershwin tribute on Sunday night, the festival's creative director Brian Barlow has pulled together the talents of his own big band, singer Jackie Richardson and pianist David Braid to perform a custom arrangement of Rhapsody In Blue. Braid, a brilliant pianist and two-time Juno Award winner, will also give a solo concert Saturday afternoon.
Also, on Saturday night, the quartet of B.C.-raised, New York-based pianist Renee Rosnes will bring its impeccable modern mainstream jazz to the Regent Theatre. Before the downbeat each night, there are smaller jazz concerts at county pubs, churches, wineries and bookstores.
Between splashing in the water or climbing the park's sand dunes and enjoying the downbeats at jazz concerts, I can recommend lunches and early dinners scattered throughout the county. At Amelia's Garden, the fine-dining restaurant at the Waring House Restaurant & Inn in Picton where I stayed as a guest of the festival last year, there was a smartly flavoured land-and-sea special of raspberry-sauced duck breast and chili-and-paprika-perked shrimp, as well as succulent, intensely flavourful and crusted lamb.
Both mains were accompanied by vegetables from Honey Wagon Farms, a neighbour of the Waring House.
At Agrarian, a hip bistro/speakeasy/cheese store in Bloomfield, about 10 minutes down Hwy. 33 from Picton, we enjoyed small plates that were generously portioned and rustic rather than tiny and urban, including a chilled, chunky summer pea soup, grilled octopus that arrived tasty and bolstered by a sesame-soy vinaigrette, a kid-friendly chunk of rich beef brisket on a mound of sweet potato purée and best of all, a big mound of tuna enlivened by confit lemon and miso butter.
There was a standout breakfast one weekend morning of steel-cut oats and perfect cinnamon-raisin toast at the oh-so-funky and tin-ceilinged Tall Poppy Café in Wellington, another 10 minutes down the highway from Bloomfield. There was also a shopping trip to Karlo Estates to buy some of its unique red and fortified wines.
Before one last stint bobbing in the waves on Sunday, we took in a very late lunch, to the sounds of the Canadian Jazz Quartet at Huff Estates Winery, north of Bloomfield. It was past 3:30 p.m., but the winery's dining room and patio were packed with folks.
A substantial roast beef sandwich, a superior bowl of seafood chowder, and heaping antipasto plate that relied heavily on seed-to-sausage cured meats, some artichoke dip that was lick-the-bowl good and a chocolate pot de creme gave us the sustenance that we needed for the long trip back home.
