We're about to get another cold stretch here, around -30C (-22F). I know most of the users are American or from some other milder climate where anything even close to that is unheard-of.
Coldest I can remember is at least -45C (-49F), and around -55 (-67F) with the windchill.
What about you guys?

When I lived in Minnesota, they had a really bad blizzard one year. It was incredibly cold. I don't remember the temp, though, just remember missing school due to the blizzard.00|00|0

The coldest I've ever experienced was when I lived in the US and it was around -25 C.. For me, that was already incredibly cold. Here in Switzerland, it's usually around 0 to -10 C. in the winter. Sometimes it goes up to +5 C. Unless you go skiing in the Alps where it can become very cold, Switzerland has pretty mild winters, despite the myth that it's super cold here ;-). However, in a way I wish we had colder winters. Not because I like the cold but because if you've got cold temperatures anyway, just let them be really cold. Like... at least in the northern states of the US and in Canada you get a lot of snow. That's really nice. Our winters are basically just like an endless November. It's very, very grey, it rains all the time and it's cold. Also, the rain isn't like a real shower, but it's just sort of a drizzle that goes on for the whole day. It's the type of weather that is nice for a week or two (you can just stay home and watch a lot of movies) but after a while you feel pretty depressed and down. I sometimes get pretty bad winter depressions during January/February. And also, for Americans (or Canadians) the cold isn't so bad because you go everywhere by car and you can just turn on the heating but I am not allowed to drive a car for medical reasons and so I have to ride my bike everywhere and riding your bike in this rainy, cold weather is very exhausting, even just for 20 minutes.00|00|0

Daily Fantasy Terms and Definitions
Fantasy owners who are new to one-day fantasy sports might be confused by some of the industry's terminology. I certainly had to look up a bunch of new words. Like sports gambling, one-day fantasy sports has a lot of slang terms. Below is a list of terms and definitions for daily fantasy sports. As I learn more about this hobby, I'll come across more of the terminology and I'll add to the lexicon below.
I also posted a page for traditional fantasy football terms.
# Draft – A designation on DraftKings. The percentage of owners who drafted a player into their starting lineup. This is the statistic at the heart of the Ethan Haskell scandal involving DraftKings and FanDuel.
+EV – Positive Expected Value. When a contest is a positive expected value, you expect a return on your investment. Players are searching for the +EV constantly. Those who find them are sharks.
-EV – Negative Expected Value. Where you do not expect a return on your investment. It's best to avoid these situations.
$/Point – Dollars per Point. This is the amount of salary cap money you must spend per fantasy point. The lower the $/Point, the better.
15Day – The 15-day DL or disabled list in fantasy baseball.
50/50 League – Also known as a 50/50s. In these contests, 50% of the participants win and 50% of the contestants lose. For instance, if you find a 20-player 50/50 event, then 10 of the players will win money and the other 10 will lose their whole bet. In a 120-player event, then 60 win and 60 lose. If you consider yourself an above-average player, you might consider these instead of the head-to-head contests. The reason is the field is more predictable, and the results have less volatility. In a heads-up contests, only one person has to get lucky to beat you. If you can predict players well, in a 50/50 game, you should consistently be able to beat more than half of your competitors.
60Day – The 60-day DL.
7Day – The seven-day DL.
Action – The amount of money you have invested at the moment, or the money you have in play.
Amaya Gaming – Amaya Gaming is a Canadian corporation which bought PokerStars in 2014. That would have nothing to do with DFS, except Amaya Gaming bought Victiv in August 2015. Amaya CEO David Baazov plans to use the innovative Victiv gaming platform to launch a PokerStars DFS site. Either Victiv's successor, StarsDraft, becomes a major third competitor, or the brand is banned in all the states planning to ban PokerStars as a bad actor: Nevada, Delaware, California, Pennsylvania, and maybe New Jersey. Stay tuned.
Bankroll – The amount of money you are willing to invest in the hobby. In practical purposes, this is the amount you have allotted for gaming, though it is really the theoretical amount you would spend. For the purposes of the casual DFS hobbyist, this would be the sum total of all the money you have in each DFS account you have. This should not be confused with the amount of money you own. In budgeting terms, bankroll is the amount of discretionary spending allotted for one-day fantasy gaming. Knowing this amount lets you figure out how much you should spend on entering contests.
Bearish – Having a pessimistic outlook on a particular player. These are players to be avoided or "faded". A term borrowed from stock market investment circles.
Beginner – Beginner contests are found at DraftKings. DK allows new signups to enter up to 50 Beginner events per sport. Once you've entered 50 such events, your ability to do so is gone. The advantage of Beginner contests is the fact it contains newbies, who presumably haven't figured out one-day fantasy sports and are therefore not as skilled. In poker, these would be considered events with "fish".
Bullish – Having an optimistic outlook on a particular player. These are players you should target. Another term from stock market investing.
CBB – The term for NCAA Basketball on FanDuel. CBB stands for "College BasketBall". Contests take place throughout the week from October to June.
CFB – The designation for NCAA Football on FanDuel. CFB stands for "College FootBall". Contests take place on Thursdays and Saturdays most weeks, from late-August to mid-January.
Create Contest – The "Create Contest" button on FanDuel allows people to create their own tailor-made event. You'll have a template of options. These are usually created by punters who want to challenge a friend.
"D" – Doubtful, an NFL Injury Report designation meaning a player has (roughly) a 25% chance of playing. This is not a good bet and I would suggest you should avoid starting these players, except in the direst of situations. In one-day DFS contests, I see no reason to depend on a player who is Doubtful to play.
Deposits – When you pay into your account. To make a deposit, you'll need a VISA credit card or a PayPal account. MasterCard and American Express can be used via PayPal, but not without it.
DFS – Daily fantasy sports. You'll also see these referred to as "one-day fantasy sports".
DK – Draftkings.
DTD – Day-to-day.
Entry Fee – The amount of money is takes to enter a contest. If this were sports betting, the entry fee would be the wager. This is posted in the information for all contests, no matter what form they take. Entrants pay between $1 and $50,000 to enter events, depending on whether they are low rollers or high rollers.
Ethan Haskell – The DraftKings employee who placed 2nd on the Week 3 2015 NFL Sunday Million contest on FanDuel. After Haskell tweeted his draft percentage (% draft) stat on Twitter, readers began to question whether he had access to the player start percentages on DK, thus helping him make better decisions on FD. This caused the two services to disallow employees from playing DFS. It also touched-off a nationwide frenzy from gaming regulators, attorneys, state AGs, class-action lawsuit filers, and opportunistic politicians, who tried to push for bans or regulations of the DFS industry. One can only imagine how much money the various DFS sites lost in the resulting scandal, which was based mostly on ignorance.
Fade – Avoid. To fade a game is to avoid a game or a match-up. If you are told, "The Cowboys-Saints game should be faded because it's missing Tony Romo and Drew Brees," you're getting advice to avoid a game where the scoring could be lower than normal. In truth, the concept is a little more subtle than that, though. Fading is important to understanding the arguments in the Ethan Haskell controversy. The idea is you fade a player who's an obvious starter because you believe most (or many) other contestants are going to start the player. Theoretically, if you had a list of the most-started players on a site, you could fade them all and draft solid players with maybe slightly lesser chances of doing well, but many fewer people starting them.
FD – Fanduel.
FPPG – "Fantasy Points Per Game". On DraftKings, this is a quick way to see what a player has scored on average per week (or contest) throughout this season. The higher this stat is, the better the player has done.
FPTS – Fantasy Points.
Fantasy Sports – Any game in which you use a group of individual performer's statistics in a team sport to build an imaginary roster of your own. The statistics are tabulated using a scoring system, then your roster is pitted against the rosters of one or more other people. To constitute fantasy sports (and not sports betting) under US law, these rosters need to be from two or more real life contests. Traditional fantasy sports involve NFL football, Major League Baseball, NBA basketball, NHL hockey, NASCAR, or NCAA sports which play out over a full seasons or year of competition. In one-day fantasy sports, the contests all take place in one day, making the gambles much quicker.
First Down – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $40,000 guaranteed event. Those that have no familiarity with American football should know it's refers to the first in a sequence of plays, in which an NFL or NCAA team has 4 players to gain 10 yards or more. If 10 yards is achieved, it is called "getting a first down". If so, a new sequence of plays begins. If multiple 1st downs is achieved, it's called "a drive". If one gets with the opponent's 10-yard line, then the sequence of plays is called 1st-and-goal, 2nd-and-goal, with goal meaning "goal to go" or you have to get to the goal line before your plays run out. Though teams have 4 plays to reach 10 yards, most teams prefer to punt on 4th down, for the sake of field position. Thus, 3rd down usually has a pivotal role in a drive.
Fish – A low-quality player in DFS; a donkey. The fish swims in the waters of DFS, but loses most of the time, i.e. gets eaten by sharks. The fish analogy is borrowed from the world of poker.
GL – Good Luck. Used as a polite sign-off in sit-n-draft contests.
GPP – Guaranteed Prize Pool. A large-field contest which generally has a large prize pool.
Gridiron – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $75,000 guaranteed event.
Grinder – A team owner who uses massive amounts of research, analysis, and spreadsheets to gain an advantage through skill. Opposed to a lucky winner. It has been noted that grinders win most of the Millionaire Maker and NFL Sunday Million events on the DFS sites.
Guaranteed – Events with a guaranteed prize pool, no matter how many entrants sign up. These cannot be canceled and therefore might have an overlay–what every good gambler searches to find.
Head-to-Head – The heads-up contest pits you against one other player. People can start or found such contests. In fact, you can open a head-to-head contest and invite a friend to join it. The head-to-head is for those who want personal match-ups. Also known as h-to-h.
History – When you click on this link on the homepage of FanDuel, this page allows you to look back on former contests you've had. Analysis is key when trying to master fantasy football and its counterparts in the other sports. Those who don't learn history are doomed to repeat it, they say. If that holds for life, then it holds for fantasy sports, too.
Hot Route – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $25,000 guaranteed event.
IR – Injured reserve. An NFL term.
Injury Report – The all-important NFL injury report is key to mid-week starting lineup decisions in daily fantasy football. Reading the tea leaves of the various injury status updates is important to finding value among backups and avoiding the 0 which would ruin your chances. Because of the every day, or every other day, rhythm of the MLB, NBA, and NHL seasons, monitoring the injury reports is at least as important in those sports.
Juice – FanDuel and DraftKings charge a fee for hosting contests and paying off the winners fair-and-square. This fee is known as the juice. It's the same as the vigorish or the vig in sports gambling. The fee is 10% of your entry fee. Your opponent also pays the same juice. That's why, if you enter a $10 contest, then you stand to gain back $18 if you win. You pay $10, $9 of it goes into the pot, and $1 is taken as juice. Your opponent spends $10 and $9 goes to the pot and $1 goes to the operator. That leaves $18 in the pot.
League – Leagues requirement a certain number of contestants to proceed. They include between 3 and 250 entries on FanDuel. League's have a payout structure akin to freezeout tournaments in poker. In a 50/50 League with 20 players, it doesn't matter whether you finished in 1st place or 10th place: you win the same amount. In a "League", winning 1st place is much better than winning 10th. The higher you place in the money, the more your winnings.
Lineup Restrictions – Sites might have lineup restrictions. For instance, FanDuel requires owners to pick players from at least 3 different contests. Also, owners cannot pick more than four players from any one team.
Live – When you click on this link on the homepage of FanDuel, it presents a list of the contests you have entered which are currently underway. The scores update at the live games transpire across America.
Lobby – Where a customizable list of contests can be found in your web browser. This is the homepage of the site. This describes the type of contest, the number of entries at present, the size of the player pool, the entry fee, the prize pool, and when the contest starts. Times are usually given for Eastern Standard Time in the USA. This is where you can click to join an event, paying money as an entry fee.
Millionaire Maker – An event on DraftKings which offers a million dollar prize to the 1st place winner, thus making the winner a technical millionaire. Such events take place each Sunday of the NFL season, and involve a $27 entry fee.
Multipliers – Multiplier events at DraftKings allow a player to win either 3x or 10x their entry fee. Multipliers are therefore just another type of payout schedule.
Narrative Stream – Similar to the often-invoked "intangibles", narrative stream is often used by broadcasters and prognosticators in their game previews. If an NFL player is set to play in their hometown or on their birthday, then that might become part of the narrative. It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with whether a player is going to be effective or not. In fact, many statistics-based gamers are going to see a narrative stream as nonsense. Others put a lot of stock into the narrative.
"O" – Out. An NFL Injury Report designation meaning the player already has been declared "Out" of the game. Never start a player with this designation.
One-Day Fantasy Sports – "One-Day" is just another industry term for daily fantasy. The key distinction is the whole game is played out over a short period of time, either one afternoon or one night during a long season. Players from a handful of games from that day's schedule are available as starters.
One-Week Leagues – "One-Week" tends to refer to fantasy football. Unlike baseball and basketball, football players can't play every day or every other day. They play once a week, so you can only bet once a week (for the most part).
Opp – On DraftKings, this means "opponent", and is not a reference to a 90s hip-hop classic.
OPRK – "Opponent Rank". On DraftKings, the OPRK Column shows an opposing unit's rating at giving up fantasy points. For instance, if you have a running back, it would be that RB's weekly opponent's rank against runners. Green OPRK is a good match-up; Red OPRK is a bad match-up; and White OPRK is a neutral match-up.
Overlay – If you have a tournament where the number of contestants isn't enough to cover the costs for the website, then it is an overlay. On the FanDuel $2.5 Million Sunday Tournament, the prize pool is a guaranteed $2,500,000. Each contestant pays $25. For the site to break even, 100,000 players must join the contest. If 90,000 owners join, then there's an overlay. This presents a positive expectation game for the gambler. In such a scenario, if you're an average player, you can expect to win more money than you lose. To borrow a gambling term, there is no house edge–the player has the edge. This is not easy to find on DraftKings and FanDuel. On lesser DFS sites, these can be found. Search for these right before a contest happens and you should do well.
"P" – Probable,an NFL injury report designation meaning a player has a 75% chance of playing.
PHR – Player Holes Remaining. In fantasy golf, this tells you how many more holes you have to catch up, if behind, or how many holes your opponent's team has left. See "PMR" below for a more in-depth explanation of these terms.
PIR – Player Minutes, Innings, or Holes Remaining. This tells you how much more gameplay you have to catch up, if behind. See "PMR" for a more in-depth explanation of how this works on DraftKings.
Play-Action – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $200,000 guaranteed event. In real world football, a play-action pass is when the quarterback fakes the ball to a running back as if the team plans to run the ball, then passes the ball instead.
PMR – "Player Minutes Remaining". During contests on DraftKings, players will notice the PMR stat. This is player-minutes-remaining, showing how much more time a starting lineup has to score. Each player on your roster has 60 minutes. You can look at this stat and have a pretty good gauge of how many more players your opponents have left to go, and how much danger there is they'll catch your point total.
Point-Per-Reception – Often written as PPR, this is where wide receivers, tight ends, and running backs get a point for every reception. In daily fantasy, some scoring systems allow for a half-point (HPPR) instead of a PPR. This changes the strategy, because receivers are less consistent getting only 0.5 points.
"Q" – Questionable, an NFL injury report designation meaning a player has a roughly 50% chance of playing.
Qualifiers – Qualifiers are like satellite events in online poker. If you win a qualifier, you win a prize and also qualify for a bigger event with a much bigger prize. The term is used for DraftKings events.
Redshirt – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $500 guaranteed event. In real world NCAA football, if a team wants to give a freshman more time to mature, they can redshirt the player, which means they do not lose a year of eligibility. They can practice with the team (in a red shirt), but cannot play. Also, a medical redshirt distinction exists, in which players of any grade are given an additional year of eligibility when they have season-ending injuries.
ROI – "Return on investment". This is a term from the world of finance and stock market investing. It applies to fantasy sports, if you break down the games into pure numbers and view the contests as mere short term investments. Smart gamblers look for overlay opportunties: essentially guaranteed tournaments that haven't filled to capacity. (See "Overlay")
Rookie League – A rookie league is specifically designated for other new signups on FanDuel. The idea is that newcomers can compete against other newbies. Since most of you should be new to the hobby, you theoretically have a better chance of winning than playing against the old pros and the real professional gamblers.
Shark – A high-quality player in DFS. Term borrowed from the poker community. Think back to your local league and imagine the handful of teams who are consistently near the top of the league. These would be the sharks. Not to be confused with whales, who wager a lot. A shark might be a high-roller, a medium roller, or a low roller.
Slant – On Draftkings, the name for an NFL $50,000 guaranteed event. In real world football, a slant route is one in which the receiver (usually) runs a 3-yard, 5-yard, or 7-yard route, then changes direction to run diagonally across the middle of the field. The idea is to get beyond the linebackers, but underneath the safeties. This is a bread-and-butter route for many teams wanting to move the chains, but requires a tough receiver to deal with the hits it requires. The Troy Aikman-to-Michael Irvin slant route was a lethal weapon for the 1990s Dallas Cowboys, but Irvin eventually ended his career on a slant route.
Stacking – To pair multiple players from one team in your starting lineup, hoping to increase upside. This is especially common in fantasy baseball. Also, it is a suggested strategy in the big tournaments, as a way of increasing volatility.
StarsDraft – The soon-to-be rebranded name for Victiv. Victiv was bought by Amaya Gaming, owner of PokerStars.
Steps – Steps allow someone to enter at $2 and work themselves up to $200 prizes, by winning through several stages of play. Consider them like qualifiers, but with a much better chances of winning (and smaller prizes). Step events are found at DraftKings.
Sweat – To watch a game which has a lot riding on it. This might be a fantasy playoff game or a high stakes DFS contest. Usually refers to a close contest, especially the late stages of that contest. "I'm sweating whether LeGarette Blount scores a touchdown versus the Colts on Sunday Night Football."
Tilt – Tilting is to develop anxiety or stress about an event's outcome, which leads to sub-optimal decisions. Another term borrowed from Texas hold'em, "going on tilt" means make decisions based on (negative) psychological factors. It is similar to getting "psyched out" by an opponent, but often has more to do with your own inner psychological structures than what any opponent does to your mindset.
Tournament – Tournaments are different than leagues in that they are guarnteed. These are the events you want to target if you want to find an overlay. Tournaments also tend to have much larger fields of players, though the sizes of the field fluctuate greatly.
Train – To enter the same lineup multiple times in the same contest. In a one-off contest like the NFL Sunday Million, this is the equivalent of paying twice to play. Only in qualifiers is this strategy advisable. In a qualifier, winning with the same lineup would mean you would have multiple entries into a subsequent event.
Unfilled Contests – "Guaranteed" contests always run, regardless of how many people enter. Those which do not say "Guaranteed" might close if enough players do not join them. When one of these contests hasn't filled up, it's called unfilled and you know it might be canceled.
Upcoming – When you click on this link on the homepage of FanDuel, it presents a list of the contests you have entered on FanDuel, but which haven't started yet. With upcoming events, you can still go into the system and make changes to your starting lineup. Choose wisely.
Value Pick – Any player who is worth more than the salary cap value assigned to him. Finding value picks is the way owners weigh the odds in their favor, especially in the head-to-head and 50/50 contests.
Victiv – A competitor to FanDuel and DraftKings. Launched in September 2014, the DFS site had enough bells and whistles to make it arguably the #3 competitor in the market in under a year. In summer 2015, the Texas-based Victiv was purchased by David Baazov of Amaya Gaming, who hopes to leverage its PokerStars database into a massive new competitor: "StarsDraft".
Volatility – The amount of luck or risk that's in a gamble. In some DFS contests, you want to control risk by selecting consistent players. In others where getting lucky is most important, players seek moves that boost volatility. This is a credible strategy in Millionaire Maker contests and other big events, because of the luck required to win such an event.
Vulture – In football, a vulture is a fullback or goal line back who scores a touchdown another player deserves (from your perspective). A touchdown vulture tends to come in during short yardage situations, or is run by the team primarily during these situations. Mike Tolbert has been a TD-vulture from Deangelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart the last couple of seasons. "Touchdown" Tommy Vardell was a touchdown vulture from Barry Sanders back in his hay day. Mike Anderson was at various times in his career, though he also had one or two years as a serious fantasy stud, too.
Whale – A high-volume player in DFS; a high-roller. This player can be good or bad. Borrowed from the poker community.
Winning – Collecting money at the end of the contest. Finding the winning strategy is what we all seek. Just win, baby.
World Champ Qualifier – A satellite event for a larger tournament. The winner gets a free entry into the DraftKings Fantasy Football World Champ field, which has a $15,000,000 prize pool.
Yahoo Fantasy Sports Daily – In July 2015, Yahoo! launched its own daily fantasy sports site. Given its long association with fantasy football and fantasy baseball and its database of 6 million-plus fantasy owners, Yahoo could provide stiff competition for FanDuel and DraftKings. Its launch was virtually unannounced and the site doesn't even have welcome bonuses, so the launch seemed more like a beta test. Even the name shows the backward approach–Fantasy Sports Daily twists around the industry's name.
YouTube Interview on Industry Terminology
If you want more information on DFS terminology, or you simply learn better from listening than reading this set of PokerNews interviews with top players: Drew Dinkmeyer ("Dinkpiece"), Peter Jennings ("CSURAM88"), Erik Hafner ("Ehafner"), and David Kitchen ("Draftkings Pro"). The video is helpful, because the owners provide background and context on terms like narrative stream, overlay, fantasy goodness, contrarian play, lineup stack, train, and theater mode.
Every gaming culture has its own slang. Introducing yourself to the industry on forums and message boards requires a certain familiarity with the words, and I found the PokerNews Dotcom piece to be a nice glimpse into how certain words become trendy.
That's a basic overview of the daily fantasy sports dictionary. Many of the catchwords and phrases used in sports betting are going to apply in DFS, but the two hobbies have distinct languages all their own. Also, the various one-day fantasy sports websites have different terminology for similar events. As I play at more DFS sites, I'll continue to add to the list of definitions. I have to encounter them myself first, I'm afraid.

How Much Would You Charge For A Jumbo/giant Cupcake/4"
Decorating By SugarMama5 Updated 30 Dec 2010 , 10:07pm by SugarMama5
How much would you charge for a jumbo/giant cupcake or a 4" cake? I had a local photographer contact me this week and is interested in having me make giant cupcakes or 4 or 6 inch cakes when she does photo shoots with babies turning one. It would be a smash it up cake, but has to start out looking cute. I told her I'd get back to her on pricing, but to honest with you, I do this out of my home, so to make up just a little cake or cupcake seems like alot of work to only charge for one cupcake. But having said that, it would be good exposure for me to do it. I had already decided (Previously) that I wouldn't ever charge less than $50 to make a cake (it's just not worth my time to do it for any less)... but I can't see me charging $50 for a cupcake or 4 inch cake (pretty sure no one would pay that much for a cupcake... if they were in their right mind, lol)
What would you charge?
It depends on what you're looking for....money or advertising.
Personally, I would do it for under $50 for marketing and free advertising purposes. If its a basic cupcake with sprinkles I'd probably do if or $10 to $15 dollars. Considering all the materials you'd be wasting making One cupcake and delivery.
If you're looking for money..than i agree its not worth it.
How is your freezer space? If I were in the same situation, I would bake all left-over batter in the 4" size, triple wrap them in saran wrap and freeze them. Being frozen once will not harm them, and it is for a baby to smash up, who wouldn't care anyways. Once you have an order, pull it out and decorate it. If you pick a design with colors you have on hand, you could do it in 15 minutes or less. I would charge $15. For all custom colors, maybe $20.
With that being said, if I had an order for a dozen of them, I wouldn't charge anywhere near that! Probably $5 or $6 each, depending on design. But I charge for dragging it all out!
what do u charge for a smash cake normally? i have made a few giant cupcakes, if you are talking about the ones that u make out of the giant cupcake pan, and it feeds normally 15-18 people. i would charge per serving like i do for cakes. if you are talking about the jumbo cupcakes like a little bigger than a standard, mine go for 3.25 each for buttercream, but most smash cakes are bigger than that. dont short yourself just for the exposure, u still have to pay the bills!
that's a great idea Anna!
So i decided that I would charge $10, but I am going to make up a bunch and freeze them and just keep it a simple design so that it's an easy peasy, quick cupcake to make. It will be good exposure and i think it will be worth doing it for that reason alone. I don't think it's worth it though for a 4 or 6 inch cake, I don't think she wanted to pay as much as I was going to charge for that size. But that's ok with me b/c who's kidding who, to make a 4/6 inch cake will take as much effort as anything bigger. cupcakes on the other hand are pretty quick to make.

I have the dreaded baby face. Sure that sounds great when your 60, but when you're 23 and still getting carded at are rated movies or bars, it gets a little embarrassing. Not to mention, what normal guy would be attracted to someone who looked like a kid? Anytime I meet a guy I like, we hit it off, then suddenly he'll say something like "you're so adorable, you remind me of my little sister" or "Wow you're 23? I thought you were 12!"
Would you go out with a girl who looked like a teenager?
And what could I do to look more mature? Does hair or clothes matter? Also, I don't really wear makeup. Just concealer sometimes when I get dark circles under my eyes. Should I start?
Most Helpful Girl
I don't know if this is going to help you coming from a girl's perspective, but I'll try.
I always thought I looked younger than I actually was, too. Though I guess I always appeared to be older to people (like when I was 15-16, everyone thought I was at least 18), I really think makeup was the key thing making me look older. I had the body of a 12-year-old for the longest time in middle and high school, and got told so by some guys.
Luckily, my body and face have both changed since then and are only getting better, so I'll say this: it takes time but you will get there. Makeup can do wonders, so I would give it a whirl if you're comfortable enough to try it out. There's several how-to's and tutorials online that you can look up that are for specific face shapes and features (close-set eyes, thin mouth, etc.) Clothes don't really matter, as long as you're not wearing those baby-doll tops that were big a few years ago because those tend to make a girl look much younger. Of course if you dress more maturely, you're going to come off as being older. Hair matters as long as you're sporting a style and color that flatter your face shape and tone (for example, short hair and blond hair have the tendency to make me look chubbier than I really am: no thank you.).
And don't sweat the comments some of those guys are making. I once had a boyfriend that made fun of my boobs all the time, and it took a toll on my self-esteem. Despite having "childlike" features, I managed to get boys in high school because everyone is attracted to different features and things. The guy I'm with today sometimes gets told he looks like a kid when he gets a haircut, so I'd say I don't have much to worry about these days :-) Hahaha.11|00|0
Thank you for the time you took to write this and for the advice about the makeup. Really appreciate it :)
By the way, your old boyfriend sounds like a total douche.
- Show AllShow Less
I had low self-esteem to begin with. I had a lot going on in my life that caused depression, mostly with my family and often I felt like he was the only person in my life that could help me get away from it all. Story of my life lol.
Awww sweetie! I'm sorry I brought it up! You're looking at Miss No Self-Esteem of America right here lol. The trick is to not associate yourself with people who bring you further down. I don't know what kind of family issues you have, but I always felt like I was born into the wrong family since we constantly fought. Then when you get older, you stop putting yourself through all of that and drop all the people who don't put the effort to care about you. Best thing I've ever done.

Author | exchange4media News Service | Thursday, Jun 26,2008 8:13 AM
These are tough times for car manufacturers. Rising fuel prices and interest rates are slowing down car sales. In a bid to push sales car manufacturers are coming up with various innovations. Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) is one such company. It is offering a free fuel voucher worth Rs 2,700 with every Santro and i10 bought between June 20 and 30, 2008.
The offer is expected to offset some of the additional cost of fuel that the customer would have to bear because of the recent fuel price increase. The calculations are based on the assumption that a regular customer would use the car to travel a distance of approximately 50 km every day and the additional amount that he/she would have to pay for this in the first six months (because of the increased price) corresponds to the amount of offer that HMIL is offering with the purchase of the car.
This is the first time that an auto manufacturer in India has put money on its claims of fuel efficiency levels. The scheme, which is open to car buyers across the country, has been executed in partnership with Indian Oil Corporation.
"This is our way of helping customers cope with the increased fuel costs, and to demonstrate that the hike translates into just Rs 2,700 in additional fuel bills for a period of six months, given the fuel efficiency of a Santro or an i10," explained Arvind Saxena, Senior Vice President, HMIL.
Rajiv Mitra, Corporate Communications Head, HMIL, said, "We are not doing any promotional activities around the offer as of now. We are informing people about this offer through print ads in leading newspapers. Our dealers are also creating awareness about this offer."
Incidentally, HMIL claims that the Hyundai Santro and the i10 yield 14 km per litre, a fact vouched by the independent expert panel at Autocar (Autocar, December 2007). Given this level of fuel efficiency, the fuel price hike translates into an additional cost of Rs 0.36 per km when driving a Santro or an i10. Allowing for an average usage of 1,250 km per month, the cost for driving a Santro or an i10 would be Rs 446 per month or Rs 2,678.60 for six months, a sum that Hyundai Motor India is offering to reimburse.

Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome is not the name you expected.
General Discussion
Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) is a rare genetic disorder that can affect many parts of the body. The disorder is characterized by distinctive abnormalities of the skin, sparse hair, eyelashes and/or eyebrows, small stature, skeletal and dental abnormalities, and an increased risk of cancer, especially bone cancer (osteosarcoma). Patients typically begin having signs of RTS during infancy, and the first feature to appear is a rash that starts on the cheeks and later spreads to other parts of the body. The rash gradually becomes chronic and persists for life. Other features may appear that involve other areas of the body such as the eyes, bones, teeth, and hair, and patients may often be small in size compared to their peers. Patients are at an increased risk for developing cancer, particularly certain types of skin and bone cancer. Lifespan is generally felt to be normal in the absence of death due to cancer, although follow-up data in the published literature are limited. RTS is inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic condition. The gene defect in two-thirds of cases is due to mutations in a gene called RECQL4. For the other one-third of patients, the gene(s) involved has not yet been identified.

Have you entered your server info under settings - email settings? When you saved did you get a success message or an error?
Jun 28, 2012 at 5:48 UTC
Yes, all the server settings are entered and there isnt an error message.
-i've tried turning web access on for the host email account as well as turning the relay option on in exchange.
Jun 28, 2012 at 5:50 UTC
And just to cover the easy stuff you have all of the email notifications checked under settings helpdesk settings?
The Exchange server settings can sometimes behave oddly. I would try using SMTP instead of exchange for outgoing (if incoming are also behaving erratically try POP or IMAP).

I will be travelling with a friend who has no oneworld status. We will be flying BA lhr-yul. Can she line up with me in business check-in counter or will the counter agent crack up and say 'back, back, back to the other line. (slight exageration). I can access business due to silver and qc m'ship.
I am thinking if I get through quicker and have to wait and wait for her to get checked in through economy check-in, will be a bit annoying.
Thanks again
yippee, made silver
I think the general consensus is that if you are travelling together then check in together. Just imagine if you were travelling with a spouse/gf/bf/child with no status.
Just make sure you approach the desk together and hand over your documents together etc. So long as you look like you are travelling together and one of you have the right status to use the premium check-in facility, you will be ok.
Are you travelling with luggage? If not, then you should be able to bypass the counter altogether by using OLCIOriginally Posted by parsonstrish
If you do have baggage, wtill use OLCI, but at the airport I would compare the bag drop queue vs the Club queue and see which is shorter
Agreed - I used the check-in kiosk at LHR last week and the bag drop queue was quicker than the Business check-in queue (boo - reduced my opportunity to flash the gold FF card!)
More to come in my upcoming trip report...
As a QP member, I've never had any problems checking in at QP counter if available, otherwise Business Counter with non-status, non-QP members who are travelling with me (only one, maybe two, I hasten to add, never tried with more).
As stated above, approach the counter together, and ensure it's clear one of you has the bona fides to be using the counter, and that you're travelling together (and presumably want to be seated togther).
Given you have PS as well as QP I'd be surprised if there's an issue.

Thanks all, it isn't absolutely necessary we sit together, but our tickets will show we are definitely doing yul together.
RE. olci, i have no status with ba, will i still be able to use this method if counter is horrendous?
yippee, made silver
Use OLCI 24 hours before departure and you can get checked in and BPs issued; at LHR, just need to go to fast bag drop.Originally Posted by parsonstrish
Unlike QFs cruddy OLCI, BA's OLCI does allow access to seats such as exit rows , so def worth using.
If you have Sapphire status, you can of course pre-select seats, so have a good chance of a decent seat
for olci, do i go to manage my booking and enter my reservation details and surname? Does that then bring up olci?
Trying not to be a worry wart but with all the baggage that has been lost at lhr, are my chances less of this occuring by using check in counter or bag drop?
I realize this is a 'crystal ball' kind of ?, interested in what people think,
yippee, made silver

Melbourne captain Nic Stirzaker says the Rebels will need to match the renowned physicality of the Brumbies if they are to prevail in Friday night's season-defining Super Rugby clash at AAMI Park.
The Brumbies moved to the top of the Australian conference standings in the wake of last weekend's 23-6 win over the Bulls.
Coming off the bye, the Rebels are just two points adrift in third spot as they continue to push hard for a maiden Super Rugby playoff spot.
"The Brumbies have been a really successful team for the last few years on the back of good kicking, on the back of a good set-piece, mauling and being really physical at the breakdown," Stirzaker said on Monday.
"We had really good encounters against them last year both here and in Canberra so we'll be doing our homework on them this week and we'll have to match their physicality at the breakdown and in defence.
"(Their strengths are) their forward pack and their set-piece."
With next month's Test series against England looming large on the horizon, the back-row battle between the likes of Pocock and rising Rebels star Sean McMahon shapes as an intriguing one.
"Sean McMahon just keeps going better and better each week and (Rebels prop) Toby Smith is definitely doing a great job at the front so there are plenty of guys putting their hands up (for Wallabies selection)," said half-back Stirzaker.
"Guys will get rewarded on the back of results."
May 13 – v Brumbies (home)
May 21 – v Chiefs (away)
May 29 – v Western Force (home)
1. ACT Brumbies (25 points)
2. NSW Waratahs (25)
3. Melbourne Rebels (23)
4. Queensland Reds (12)
5. Western Force (10)

this PC build i am using is only about 3 month old, but it is running slow, doing funky things and now i am out of space in my C partition (swore I made it 50 GB when i built it, but now it on shows 20 GB total??) we have another unit on the floor identical to mine that is have MoBo and HDD issues and will so be swapped out for a new machine. the plan is rob the processor out and install in mine in my second processor slot. i had planned on waiting for that swap to rebuild mine, but i can't wait any longer. So i stole one out of a unit designated to be sold and will replace it later. this old 690 should rock and roll when i get it done lol.

yep, every 690 we have has duel slots, i am assuming the second slot is live, guess if it is not i will be looking for a bios update lol

That sounds like all kinds of bad. :-)

it's all i got.
well i am up and running, second socket was active so that was easy, i ended up with 10Gb of ram and duel HDD's, though i think i need to go into bios and turn on teh second one yet. easy transfer did not want to move my profile, so i had to do it by hand, but all seems good so far, even running the 64 bit version of pale moon to see what it is is like.

I started to play Leauge of Legends when my friends talk about it, which is about 4 months ago. I still remember my first game which I chose Galio as my champion and play with one of my friends. As you expect, I fed in mid cause I wasn't used to melee champions. I also skipped the tutorial becuase i think i'm smart enough to know how to play. My friend RAGES at me and I, of course, RAGE QUIT! *^&*&O#^#(*
Then I got banned for a 1 day and did it again so I got banned for another 3 days. When I got unbanned, I found that this game is actually fun but requires lot of skills. I actually play for real and won some and lost some games. After 1 month my brother plays, then awhile later my other brother plays. We got closer and closer through this game but we would also argue when we lose and blame each other. However, after the game, we would talk about how we can improve and we play together a lot. Also, I need to carry them, which i'm not really good at still. He would ask me about things in LoL like items, runes, and masteries. We also watch streams together and had a lot of fun. Overall, I like how LoL can bring fun and closer relationships to a family. (well, maybe just bros!)
My favorite LoL champion is Tristana, The Megling Gunner, because I used her until i met Teemo!! :) She was free as you know and it's a really good start for beginners. Having and escape or chase is what i like on champions. Her passive (Draw a bead) gives her really good range and kite at late game which is always good to finsih someone off. The funninest thing is her ult (buster shot), whenever I blowed someone away with just 1 HP, EVERYONE rages at me, even myself and the enemy would say, " Thanks for pushing me away. " Her E (explosive shot) gives her nice farming and harassing. Her Q (Rapid Fire) is a really ncie burst which you can't compare to any other champions, 90 % as boost! When I just started, if i get an Infinity Edge, the game is about to end. I also had difficulties with her in mid when I was laning against Morde, HUE HUE HUE HUE. No one can really 1 v 1 him and my autoattack didn't even hurt him. Of course I like Tristana's look and her Buccanner Skin because it's really CUTE!! (welll, Teemo is better in that category. They are freinds, right? So trist won't midn if I say that LOL) Playing Tristana allows me to take down turrents and inhibitor really fast. My brother was watching me play one game which i was fed and I was able to solo baron and get inhibitors real fast and they LOL'd, of course. So, Tristana is the favorite champion for me in LOL because she is powerful even she looks small (Chaox"s Trist). Remember what Teemo said," Size doesn't mean everything." Have fun on the field of justice and good luck to whoever wins! :)

I asked a question a few hours ago to get opposing views in attempt to have a discussion, but noone denounced the claim. I am writing this to see what y'all think, and to get y'all to think in another way than you normally do. I am not judging any person for their faiths, I am merely questioning those beliefs... So with that being said, let me begin with my thoughts. (in addition, I do not mean to single out the christian god here, but that is the religion I know most about)
God is a tyrannical dictator. When hearing this many react with shock. How could god be a tyrant or a dictator? I think this is a result of people not thinking objectively about what the bible claims god to be, or what religion tends to portray him as. Many people think that god and jesus are love incarnate, but are they? That is what I will be explicating/ denouncing in this. There are two things that make me believe this, the first being the idea of a being with absolute power that does not allow for free will, and the second being that this god can (and does) punish absolutely for thought crime.
Firstly, the free will issue. When I tend to broach this subject with theists they say that their god does allow for free will. I have two problems with this, the first being more of an emotional argument and the second (more important) being a logical argument. The first problem I have with the idea of free will is that theists tend to act as though god offers us absolution for our sins (which I will ignore for now, maybe mention later) at no cost to us! We are free to accept or reject the absolition given to us by the torture and gruesome murder of jesus. This is simply not true though, what does the bible say happens if one rejects this claim, this absolution? The bible says you will be tortured for an eternity in hell. That does not sound very free to me. If my father were to say, "You have free will, choose to do what I say or I will burn you alive." I would not feel very free to make that decision. However, emotional arguments do very little for me, because of this the logical argument is more important to me. The bible says that god knows the future, this absolute knowledge of the future by definition refuses us the possibility for free choice. If the future is written in stone (as it must be if god KNOWS it), then we are not free to choose a path that is contrary to that future without god losing his omniscience.
Secondly, god is accountable to no one. His word is law, and if we disobey we are severely punished in this life and the next. These crimes are not even as kind as human law. In our laws you have to commit an act to be punished, but in the bible you do not have to commit a crime to be punished, you merely need to think of it. This is totalitarianism defined! "We know what you are thinking, and we can punish you for it!" If this is not a despotic tyrant I have no idea what could possibly be considered as such.
Those are my thoughts! If you made it this far I appreciate you giving me your time! I look forward to you presenting your thoughts and rebuttals if you have some. Thanks in advance!

Skeen Scores First Career Trans-Am Pole While Ave Clinches Title in Road Atlanta Qualifying
BRASELTON, Ga. (September 30, 2010) -- Mike Skeen, of Charlotte, N.C., earned his first career SCCA Pro Racing Trans-Am Series pole position while Tony Ave, of Maiden, N.C., wrapped up the 2010 series championship in an eventful qualifying session for Friday afternoon's season finale at Road Atlanta.
Under most circumstances throughout the 2010 Trans-Am season, Ave would go out in qualifying, throw down the gauntlet with a blistering time on his first flying lap and then pull into pit lane while his competitors tried in vain to knock him off the pole position. Today, Ave did throw down a flyer on his first lap at speed and headed for pit lane.
However, before Ave could even reach his pit stall, he was bumped all the way back to third on the grid by Skeen and RJ Lopez, of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Skeen turned a lap at 1:19.321 (115.278 mph) in Agee Racing's No. 81 ECR Chevrolet Corvette, which was more than enough to give him the pole for what will be the final Trans-Am race for the Agee team.
"It went really awesome," Skeen said. "We started out with a different setup than we had yesterday. We tried something new in yesterday's practice and didn't really like it, so we went back towards where we were on the promoter test day and made a small change based on that base setup. It was awesome. The Agee Racing guys have been doing an awesome job. They've been working really hard getting this car on the track and it feels really good to be on the pole here for the last race for Agee Racing. We only did it in one flying lap, so I'm glad it held up."
Shortly after Skeen and Lopez posted their times, Ave returned to the track in the No. 4 Boden Masonry/Lamers Racing/McMahon Group/Optech/PME Chevrolet Corvette in an attempt to get the pole back. The best he could do was retake second with a lap at 1:20.029 (114.258 mph), but second on the grid pays six points and he needed to score only four to clinch the title.
"That part is good, but (qualifying) didn't go very well," said Ave. "We were obviously a little bit slower on stickers than we were on old tires and we had a misfire earlier in the week that we thought we fixed. We went out just now and it didn't run at all the whole time very well. I was lucky to finish where we did finish. We need to fix that or we'll be going backwards pretty fast. We'll strip it out and change ignition boxes and whatever else we have to do. It's disappointing to not get on the pole because we clearly should have, but good job to everybody that helps me. We're on the front row, and the championship we don't have to worry about, so we can just race hard tomorrow."
Lopez will start third in the No. 6 Disco 106/ECR Engines/Goodyear Chevrolet Corvette with a best lap at 1:20.403 (113.727 mph). It is his sixth top-three starting spot of the season and his fourth in a row. He heads into the race looking for his third victory of the season on Friday.
"It went pretty good," said Lopez. "I think our biggest setback was when we didn't do the test day and we missed the first practice session yesterday, so it was basically only my second time in the car. There are a few things that we missed on the setup, but I really am happy that we did a low-20. We're pretty close to Tony and we're actually holding onto second place there. Mike Skeen did an awesome job. He's really fast, so good for him. There are a couple of changes that I want to make now that I was thinking about making last night and I didn't make them. Now, it reaffirmed to me that I definitely should make some changes. I'm happy with the time, I'm happy I qualified third, but I know there's a little more in the car."
Glen Jung, of Osteen, Fla., scored his best qualifying performance of the year by taking fourth on the grid at 1:22.291 (111.117 mph) in the No. 77 Rotary X-treme/MAZDASPEED/Goodyear Mazda RX-7. Amy Ruman, of Kent, Ohio, completed the top five with a best lap of 1:22.423 (110.940 mph) in the No. 23 McNichols/Goodyear/Cenweld Chevrolet Corvette. Bobby Sak, of Kalamazoo, Mich., posted the fourth-quickest time during the session in the No. 17 The Pita Pit/The Grotto at Capone's Chevrolet Corvette, but his time was disallowed for changing tires.
The 30-minute qualifying session was split into two halves, with the Trans-Am cars running the first 15 minutes and the new Trans-Am 2 and Trans-Am 3 classes qualifying in the second half. Bob Stretch, of Arlington, Texas, took the TA2 pole in the No. 98 NewWheel.com Chevrolet Monte Carlo at 1:29.081 (102.648 mph). Jeff Dernehl, of Woodstock, Ga., is the lone TA3 entry and he qualified the No. 03 Mazda RX-7 at 1:32.635 (98.710 mph).
Friday's race is scheduled to take the green flag at 4:35 p.m. ET. The scheduled distance is 36 laps (91.44 miles) and the race is subject to a 90-minute time limit.

This is a great first stepper motor, good for small projects and experimenting with steppers.
by stevebrown
on 11/22/2015
I was able to drive this motor using a Raspberry Pi and a ULN2803A chip. The motor actually has 32 steps per revolution, not the 48 stated in the description. Gearing results in approximately, but not exactly, 513 steps per revolution. This may be problem for certain applications. Because of the gearing, the top speed is limited, but torque is high for such a small motor.
MCM is a great company with a large selection of good quality products.

Reached 10 SSL submissions this monthAsked by premierdepogrl on August 26, 2013 at 06:20 AM
If I am permitted 100 submissions with a free account, why am I getting THIS message? I don't HAVE SSL submissions so what is going on here??? Please contact me to let me know why I am getting this message.
Thank you.
Dear roberta schmitt,
We would like to inform you that your JotForm account has almost reached 10 SSL submissions per month this month. Free accounts are limited to 10 SSL submissions per month. Your forms will be automatically disabled once you reach your allocated quota.
Upgrade your account today to continue using JotForm without any interruption; receive submissions, collect payments from your users and have more upload space. Upgrading is quick and easy:
Thanks for using JotForm,
As was indicated in the message you received you have been using up you SSL submissions instead of setting up the normal ones hence exceeding the allocated quota.
I have reset your SSL Submissions to 7 so us to avoid having your account downgrading, you have to note that this can only be done this one time. If you did not intend to use SSL submissions I recommend you disable them.
To disable SSL submissions, just change the https:// prefix in the JotForm URL found in your embed code into http:// (without the "s").
Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
Thank you for using JotForm!
So I fixed my form to NOT be SSL, secure forms, and my account has BEEN
DISABLED!!!! WHY???? Please fix this ASAP. I am supposed to have 100
forms per month with the free account so this is not right that I am now
disabled. Here is the form that I am now sending to be completed *REPORTER
*and while it is NOT secure, the message is FORM OVER QUOTA!
Please fix.
Can you please share to us your website URL where your form embedded for further assistance?
Thank you!
I don't embed my form - I send it to my form-fillers via email.
I am really stressed out that I am getting this message. I am really very
unhappy with how my forms are being handled - I am supposed to have 100
free forms - I barely use that many per month and I am being shutdown!
This is really crazy!!! I changed the form from being a secure form and
it STILL doesn't work!!! PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP!!! PLEASE!!!!
JotForm Support
There's a continued SSL submissions in your account that's why it was disabled due to overlimiting the SSL free limit for the month. Please be informed that SSL limits for free users is 10 per month. If you passed this limit, your account will be temporarily disabled. I have reset half of your SSL limit in order to re-instate your account. You should probably advised your users not to use the HTTPS form anymore to avoid this from happening again. If you passed this limit again, you should consider upgrading to one of our paid plan for a higher submission limits.
Your http form should work by now: http://www.jotform.com/premierdepogrl/REPORTER_JOB_SUBMISSION_FORM
I sent them a form w/out the "Secure" and it should be working and give me
the 100 - please explain why this keeps happening! I need to have a form
w/o HTTPS or SSL - I thought I created that and that's what I sent - I
don't WANT only 10 forms per month, I want the 100 - please send me THAT
form so I can send it to my form fillers. I know you want me to upgrade
and pay but I am unable to at this time. Is this what you do to force
people to pay for what is supposed to be a free form??? I'm really not
happy that this keeps happening and you keep "upping" my SSL limit - I WANT
JotForm Support
Hi, @EltonCris provided link should work
Could you try by making a test submission, and then check your submissions counter?
My submissions counter, if I was at the right place, shows 39 - so is it
all set now? I NEVER want SSL or HTTP if that makes me only have 10 forms
per month! Please confirm
All set now. Again, if you reach your SSL submission, you need to upgrade your account to any of our paid accounts.
Thank you!
Do I now have 100 forms??? I don't ever want SSL or the limitation of 10!!!
Please confirm. Thanks!
Thanks for contacting us.
I have checked your account and I can confirm that you have enough space to receive your 100 submissions:
Now, to make sure to prevent your form from receiving SSL submissions, follow these steps:
1. While editing your form go to Setup and Embed tab in the toolbar.

"This program turned out amazing! The design team did a great job of reviewing my product and adjusted the photo to make the test stand out more."
"Wedding Paper Divas did it again! The vision I had for my programs was brought to life when I received that black box. The paper quality to strong and smooth. The program was just the right size....not to big and not too small. The color matched perfectly with my wedding color and theme. I am very pleased with my orders i.e. save the date magnets, invitations, and wedding programs."
"I ordered a matching program for my invitations because I wanted the people in my wedding party to be recoginzed when we sent out the invites. The final design was so much bertter after the design review team did their edits. They even added the the graphics in the inside of the program which were not part of the original design. Paper quality & printing was excellent. All the colors were vivid and the texts were very clear. All of our invitees thought our invitation was so beautiful and unique. Thanks, Wedding Paper Divas for providing us with a beautiful butterfly design for our wedding invitations! <3"
