Fridays @ Five: Five Things We Loved this Week
Every Friday, we send out an exclusive list of five unique or interesting things we've found (or explored) around the web during the week.
It may include books, gadgets, albums, articles, new hacks/tricks, and — of course — all sorts of weird stuff we dig up around the web. It's often focused on Intuitive things and personal growth. Please feel free to spread the word with friends who would also enjoy.
Here's some great stuff to check out over the coming weekend…
Burbles the Starfish Cat is a robotic art piece that intends to be both cute and horrifying. Burbles is cat on top, starfish on bottom. He has heat-seeking sensors that react by mewling, clawing, and moving towards heat, particularly the heat from a human body. Burbles' creator, Christine Sunu, says "Increasingly, machines move with action that seems genuinely spontaneous. We don't always admit it, but we consider these robots alive…: At the same time, we can dismantle, debug, and replace robots. Robots exist, then, in a half-alive state. The concept of a not-living and not-dead object should be hard for our brains to handle, except that we've been seeing such objects in movies for years."
This piece made me wonder about 1. How I, personally, see technology in my day-to-day life (Do I consider Siri alive? Why doesn't she freak me out?) and 2. If we would be comfortable with Burbles if he was actually alive, instead of his current robotic form. How do you see technology? Is Burbles just a case of the uncanny valley, or are we more uncomfortable replicating an animal that isn't anthropomorphized? Click here to read about Burbles.
In honor of our upcoming "Parenting/Caring for your Inner Child" week, I've included a project by RadioEight in which children around the world describe dreams they have had. Despite the various cultural and geographical differences, a lot of the dreams children (and people) have are similar: A little girl in Ethiopia and a little boy in Vietnam both dream about their grandmothers dying. Children in South and North America dream about being visited by aliens. I don't know if dreams are a direct window into our psyche in the same way that Freud originally thought, but I do think that dreams can affect our pattern recognition on a conscious level. I can still remember nightmares that affected my conscious behavior as a child, and subsequently shaped how I see the world as an adult, regardless of how irrational my fears were as a kid. Click here to hear their stories.
Imagine a group of ghost-hunters who each identify as different genders and sexual orientations (hence the reclaimed use of "queer," which is traditionally used in a derogatory way) searching for, and looking to communicate with, the LGBTQIA+ dead? It may sound corny, but it's real. If you think about it, the Queer Ghost Hunters are reclaiming more than just terminology— whether or not you believe in ghosts, they're also reclaiming the past. The ghost hunters look in nunnery graveyards, insane asylums, prisons, mansions, and literal closets to communicate with a demographic of human beings who have long been ignored or punished. Our upcoming theme is on parenting, whether that be parenting oneself or someone else, and I think the Stonewall Columbus Queer Ghost Hunters are a great representation of excavating through and making peace with the past, which is often a substantial part of personal development work. Click here to check out their webseries trailer.
The Bright Sessions is a podcast that follows the therapy sessions of Dr. Bright with humans that have superhuman abilities. Not "superhuman" in the way of the Hulk, but more in the way of the X-men. Each episode reveals information about the main characters in question: Sam, Caleb, and Chloe. I won't supply any spoilers, but I think that as an Enneagram 4 I really identify with the "I'm like other people but not" narrative. It's a very compelling story and I highly recommend it to our podcast listeners. Click here to listen to the Bright Sessions podcast.
Cracked is fantastic Exploration (Ne) fuel. One of my favorite videos to date is a compilation of funny retellings of borderline-insane historical figures. My favorite is Eli Olsberg's story about Olga the Saint/Olga of Kiev, who was a woman that killed several thousand people by 1. Burying them alive, 2. Setting them on fire, and 3. Pretending to agree to marry the neighboring tribe's leader under the condition that she receive three sparrows and three pigeons from each of the neighboring tribe's houses, and then killed another 5,000 soldiers with her bird army. She was dubbed a saint by the Catholic church because she tried to spread Christianity before and after her murderous rampage. Click here to watch the video.
So there you have it. Of course, these picks reflect some of my personal biases and interests – but having hung around the Personality Hacker community for a while now – and being personal growth focused – I'm pretty sure you will find at least one thing from the above list to be interesting.
Also – leave a comment or your thoughts below. Love to hear what you think.

A Closer Look 03/28/2011

"The eyes are the window to the soul."
For all the battles and wrestling matches I've endured when it comes to self-image, I have one feature I've always liked: my baby blues. I know it sounds prideful, but I love being asked, "Is that your natural eye color?"
But more than the color I love that my eyes have a story behind them.
These are the same eyes that first looked into the eyes of my parents upon my birth, finally putting a face to the murmured, muffled voices I'd heard in utero for the past several months.
These are the eyes that first took in the wonder of the great big world around me, starting with the daisies in the field where I learned to walk.
These are the eyes that saw the possibilities in dreaming a size too big.
These are the eyes that looked into the heart of my soul mate.
These are the eyes that seek the adventure in the everyday mundane.
These are the eyes that look for the tender child in each person, which makes it easier to extend compassion and love to all.
These eyes have seen, searched, questioned, laughed, cried, feared, dreamed, failed, reached, sought, scanned, hoped, hid, focused, loved and sparkled.
These eyes reveal my soul. Capture my life. Tell my story.
What story lies behind your eyes?

Hello, Creepypasta Wiki community, and welcome to Shocktober. Today's film has had many incarnations, with two that I personally consider favorites of mine. We will be focusing on the 1986 version, but 1958 version is good as well. It's, of course, The Fly.
One of my favorite films ever, no film quite touches on the idea that science doesn't always require morals as well as The Fly. Starring Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic Park), this is a sort of twisted love story, or dark romance movie. No, it is certainly not a "chick flick", as scenes of intense gore that was thought to be extremely disturbing come to mind. It might be a tale including love, but it is mostly about transformation.
When Seth Brundle creates a teleportation device, he tests it on all sorts of inanimate objects. Eventually this closes in on living subjects- and the last one being a human. He tests the device on himself, which works by separating each atom of the subject, and reforming them exactly at the other device. When a fly gets into the other machine, their atoms and genetic structure are mixed.
The attributes of the fly, such as intense strength, a hyperactive sex drive, secretions from the flesh, molting skin, and eating via acidic vomit all infect Seth Brundle, transforming him into what is called the Brundle Fly. His love story with Veronica Quaife, as played by Geena Davis, creates what I would call one of the best stories I've ever heard.
The horror of the film overlays all else, with the effects of Chris Walas and makeup of Stephan Dupuis even winning an academy award for their amazing effects. The two worked on everything from Star Wars to Robocop, to even Tales from the Crypt and Scanners. Certainly a thriving track record.
Scenes such as the arm wrestling scene, and the entire ending stick out as amazing showcases of effects, and outstanding directing done by David Cronenberg (Scanners), mixed with acting excellence from both Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis as the two stars of the film, create the perfect mixture of professionalism and talent.
Multiple scenes were removed from the film for being to "twisted", as they put it, such as the infamous Monkey-Cat scene. These are all visible on Youtube. The original film from the 50's was not gore-filled, and was much more classical. This rendition of it took it down a much more controversial path, and it certainly paid off to all of the staff, and the viewers.
They say the whole world can change if a butterfly is killed. Just imagine how it would change with just one fly.

Identifying performance, capacity, and engineering requirements? Designing a scalable plan to carry your facility through its entire life cycle? Balancing mechanical, architectural, electrical, and site considerations in the design phase?
These are some of the toughest strategic infrastructure challenges a data center organization has to address. If project requirements are not well defined at the outset, hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars can be wasted during the design, construction, and operation of a facility.
Defining data center capital project requirementsTo achieve effective budget management and long-term sustainability, Uptime Institute's Performance Requirements & Design Assumptions (PRDA) assessment will set your project on the right path.
The PRDA is a comprehensive presentation of the information necessary to drive the design, specification, and construction of a data center project. You'll receive a report that provides an outlined assessment of performance requirements, capacity (computer room, electrical, cooling), and other assumptions. Your project engineer and architect can use these specifications to develop an appropriate design solution, often cutting up to three months from the project timeline.
Technical DirectionOur expert consultants make an integrated evaluation of your availability, reliability, capacity, and performance needs, and your expansion horizon. The assessment looks comprehensively at business drivers and functional parameters, including:
- Site Selection
- Architectural Infrastructure Systems
- Electrical Infrastructure Systems
- Mechanical Infrastructure Systems
- Support Infrastructure Systems
Additionally, the PRDA ensures long-term scalability with minimal cost and disruption. It includes capacity and functionality parameters that enable your facility to expand in the future without requiring critical load interruption or shutdown during construction.

"...because you're also creating something for others' consumption, you find yourself imagining and playing to your audience more and more. So those moments in which you're supposed to be showing your true self become a performance. Your psychology becomes a performance."
via nytimes.comI just read this excellent article on NYTimes.com, and it really made me think about how social media changes how we think. Someone (I think it was @pixelRN) once tweeted that she was trying to explain Twitter to her mother, and her mother said, "I don't get it. Wouldn't you always be tweeting 'I'm sitting here at the computer twittering?'" I thought about that while I read the article (are we always wrapped up in a strange Twitter warp as we tweet about what we're doing but not really, since we are NOT tweeting "I'm tweeting"?). I also recently read The Facebook Effect [Amazon link], and it made me ponder Zuckerberg's ideas about radical transparency, so I poked around on the Web and found some really interesting blog posts on the subject (my favorite is this one by Danah Boyd; it has almost 100 comments, many of which are nearly as thought provoking as the post).
It has always been obvious to me that we create our own personas on social media. Otherwise we wouldn't have started out on the Internet with IRC and AOL handles like "noodle783." We would always have used our real names and said what we really looked like and where we live. We didn't. Now we are. Facebook is forcing us into it and then switching the rules by letting our private details slip out, and we help them out by telling them all about ourselves and even using location-based applications to let everyone know where we are all the time. But the NYTimes article and other literature emerging on these topics indicates that we're going really far beyond that and actually changing the way we think on the basis of what we plan to say about it on our various social media platforms---much the way Sapir and Whorf (they've been debunked [Wikipedia link], but I always liked the idea and secretly think it has merit) hypothesized many moons ago that our language shapes the way we think (eg, the classic example that Eskimos experience snow differently from Floridians because they have a dozen words, or however many, for different types of snow).
That's heavy duty. So I had basically two questions: is it the case? And is it bad? On further reflection I decided it is the case for me. My boyfriend and I can often be heard saying, triumphantly, "I'm totally going to tweet that!" or deliberating on whether or not something is tweetable. We argue constantly over what can and should be shared on Facebook. (How important is it, for example, to tag someone in your relationship status? I'm pretty sure this wasn't a topic of hot debate 10 years ago.) I take a lot of photos, and about half the time when I shoot a photo one consideration is whether I think people on Flickr or Twitter will be interested in it. I paid a lot of money to have my iPhone available to me in Europe so I could share my experiences traveling.
Social media has also changed my psychology insofar as the way I look at friends. Twitter and bloggery have broadened my pool of available friends to the point that I communicate more often with people I have never met in real life than I do with some I have. I can already hear the gasps of horror, but think about it. I'm thrown together with people physically near me for work or one or two other common activities, and that's often all we have in common. Online I have access to a huge group of people with whom I share a number of important similarities. I am not at all interested in my high school friends' lives. I was bored with their lives when I was IN high school. But I'm interested in what my Twitter buddies are up to. Why? Because many of them are nurses or geeks or photographers and we identify strongly in some way with each other. This one aspect may actually be the main way for me that social media has changed my psychology. My boyfriend unhesitatingly canceled his Twitter account after his boss noticed it (he was checking into work from Foursquare; clearly I failed at my social media tutelage), and I was appalled. I wondered what I would do if I were TOLD to cancel mine. It's no longer a matter of principle but one of tangible reward with me. I would wonder if @jgamet was wearing pants as often as he should, what @ozrose was doing in Australia, and what antics @Geek2Nurse's hypothetical patients were up to. I *like* reading the mundane details of other nurses' lives, and I like reading tweets from real-life friends, many of whom, by the way, are real-life friends because we met through Twitter. Because of common interests. Like I said.
Regarding my second question ("is it bad?"), my answer is a guarded "no." I think social media has a lot of issues right now, the main one of which that is currently salient to me is the potential for social media drama. Facebook has caused me a lot of real-life drama and some tangible losses and problems. That's a change in psychology because I almost feel sometimes like I'm shadow-boxing with an alternate universe. I think constantly about privacy issues and sharing, which is a change in my psyche as well, because before social media I never had occasion to do that. But the point brought up in the NYTimes article, that tweeting about a moment somehow decreases its experience, is really arguable for me. I find in contrast that since the advent of microblogging and easy sharing of photos, thoughts, and links, I pay more attention and more often than not experience things more fully than I did before. BECAUSE I'm tweeting about them. Are all tweets important? Obviously not. Do I waste time on Twitter? Obviously so. But I definitely notice the world around me much more than I did before I started sharing 140-character slices of it with the world at large.
I can tell I'll be reading the books coming out on these topics (they're finally starting to emerge). I'll be reading them on my iPad, checking into them on GetGlue, and twittering about what I think about them. Will that change how I feel about what I read, because I know I'll be sharing my thoughts publicly? I'll let you know.

Foals linked with Boca star
By Chris Ives
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Borussia Monchengladbach have been linked with a move for Boca's Federico Insua.
Borussia Monchengladbach have been linked with a move for Boca Juniors playmaker Federico Insua.
The Argentine international moved to Boca in January of last year but is set to leave the club during the summer, with Germany his most likely destination.
Schalke and Borussia Dortmund are also thought to be in the running for the 26-year-old but Argentinian newspaper La Nacion are reporting The Foals now head the queue.
Monchengladbach sport director Peter Pander met Boca president Mauricio Macri on Tuesday to discuss the proposal, although the deal is thought to be some way off completion.
"We still have to sort out several details," Macri said.
New Gladbach coach Jupp Heynckes has been handed the task of rebuilding The Foals' squad after a disappointing 2005/06 season and could well see Insua as the answer to the club's recent problems in the creative midfield position.

text: 2. Wendy's ( WEN) This past week marks the one-year anniversary for Emil Brolcik, the new CEO of this fast-food chain. During the past year, the proven industry veteran has taken a close look at operations and ultimately unveiled a turnaround strategy, which I wrote about here. The market remains dubious, as shares are exactly where they were a year ago. But as I cautioned back in January, turnarounds can take several years to play out. On a purely qualitative basis, Brolick's vision for Wendy's makes ample sense. Focus on quality ingredients, and you can separate from the fast-food pack. Whether Brolick can execute on his plan is still an open question, but the earnings leverage in this business model makes this stock a potentially strong gainer during the next few years. 3. Gafisa ( GFA) I wrote about this Brazilian homebuilder roughly a month ago, and it still appears to offer high risk and high reward. Simply put, the Brazilian housing sector is currently retrenching after a building boom that led to a housing glut. The excesses are being worked off, and with the Brazilian economy expected to get a major boost from the World Cup and the Olympics in coming years, the housing market should spin back to life in a year or so. Meanwhile, a drop from $18 to $4 in the past 18 months has pushed this out-of-favor stock into value territory. Shares now trade for not much more than book value of $3.31 a share. And this figure has been heavily marked down from write-offs that likely undervalue Gafisa's real estate holdings when the Brazilian economy turns back up. 4. Celsion ( CLSN) This is the only biotech stock I'm focusing on right now. Celsion has developed ThermoDox, which is a heat-activated drug delivery technology currently in Phase III testing for liver cancer. As with many biotechs, the company must keep reloading the balance sheet with more cash to stay afloat, which has heavily pressured shares.

Payment integration between JotForm and PayUMoneyAsked by zala5958 on October 13, 2015 at 04:17 AM
I have created submit button (html code provided by payment gateway provider) with the help of EDIT HTML text tool by learning it from one of the forum question................ http://www.jotform.com/answers/267007-Adding-Custom-Submit-Button
Please anyone tell me how to add "TOTAL AMOUNT" to my html submit button.
JotForm Support
Hello zala5958,
I am not sure if I have understood your requirement correctly. Do you want to read the value of your payment tool and pass it on to PayU money payment gateway?
I did check your last edited form and could not find any PayU money related code as you have shared in the screenshot above. Please share the PayU money submit button code and we will take a look if it is possible to achieve your requirement.
We will wait for your response.
Thank you!
Yes I want to read the value in text box ("TOTAL" in the form) and pass it on to PayU money payment gateway.
there is another problem that clicking payU money button a new page opens for payments, even if you do not fill the required data on the form.
JotForm Support
I'm not sure if that will work, please note that the HTML you added in the "Text" field will not act as the real submit button on the form. The actual submit button for the form is under the "Form Tools" section.
To make an order form and collect payments, we have payment integrations that you can use under the "Payment Tools" section. Here are some guides that you can follow:
We do not have a payment integration for PayUMoney, however I will forward this to our developers as a feature request. Please note that I'm unable to guarantee that this will be implemented, but rest assure that our developers are already aware of this request.
Thank you.
Thanks Charlie for the help,
I hope Ill find PayU money in Payment tools in near future.
JotForm Support
Thank you for understanding. We will update you as soon as this has been implemented.

Scarlett Johansson Speaks Out for First Time About Dylan Farrow's 'New York Times' Open Letter
Scarlett Johansson didn't take too kindly to being called out by Dylan Farrow in her op-ed with the New York Times.
In the open letter, Farrow details alleged sexual abuse at the hands of her adopted father, acclaimed director Woody Allen, and openly shames some of his films' stars for turning an apparent blind eye.
"What if it had been your child, Cate Blanchett? Louis CK? Alec Baldwin? What if it had been you, Emma Stone? Or you, Scarlett Johansson? You knew me when I was a little girl, Diane Keaton. Have you forgotten me?" Farrow wrote.
Johansson called her remarks "irresponsible."
"I think it's irresponsible to take a bunch of actors that will have a Google alert on and to suddenly throw their name into a situation that none of us could possibly knowingly comment on," Johansson told The Guardian. "That just feels irresponsible to me."
Allen, in turn, wrote his own response to Farrow's claims that he molested her when she was seven, allegations that first surfaced 21 years ago at which time he was never convicted and he has maintained his innocence ever since.
The 29-year-old self-professed movie muse of Allen's, worked with the director on three films, including Match Point, Scoop and Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
She adds that her professional relationship with Allen has nothing to do with his personal matters she knows nothing about.
"I don't know anything about it. It would be ridiculous for me to make any kind of assumption one way or the other," she added.
"I'm unaware that there's been a backlash. I think he'll continue to know what he knows about the situation, and I'm sure the other people involved have their own experience with it," Johansson said. "It's not like this is somebody that's been prosecuted and found guilty of something, and you can then go, 'I don't support this lifestyle' or whatever. I mean, it's all guesswork."

Nelfinavir and Concurrent Radiation and Temozolomide in Patients With WHO Grade IV Glioma
Current therapy for GBM GBM is the most frequent primary malignant brain tumor in adults.
Prior to the introduction of temozolomide, the median survival was generally less than one
year from the time of diagnosis. Standard therapy had consisted of surgical resection to the
extent safely feasible, followed by radiotherapy. Adjuvant carmustine, a nitrosourea drug,
was commonly prescribed in the United States. Cooperative-group trials had investigated the
addition of various chemotherapeutic regimens to radiotherapy but no randomized phase 3
trial of nitrosourea-based adjuvant chemotherapy had demonstrated a significant survival
benefit as compared with radiotherapy alone. A metaanalysis based on randomized trials
suggested a small survival benefit of chemotherapy, as compared with Template Version: 7 May
2008 IRB APPLICATION page 1 of 8 radiotherapy alone (a 5 percent increase in survival at two
years, from 15 percent to 20 percent). To further improve on these survival rates, the
European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Brain Tumor and
Radiotherapy Groups, and the National Cancer Institute of Canada (NCIC) Clinical Trials
Group completed a randomized, multicenter, phase III trial to compare the alkylating agent
temozolomide and radiotherapy with radiotherapy alone in patients with newly diagnosed
glioblastoma. [1] A total of 573 patients from 85 centers underwent randomization. At a
median follow-up of 28 months, the median survival was 14.6 months with radiotherapy plus
temozolomide and 12.1 months with radiotherapy alone. The unadjusted hazard ratio for death
in the radiotherapy-plus-temozolomide group was 0.63 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.52
to 0.75; P0.001 by the log-rank test). The two-year survival rate was 26.5 percent with
radiotherapy plus temozolomide and 10.4 percent with radiotherapy alone. Concomitant
treatment with radiotherapy plus temozolomide resulted in grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxic
effects in only 7 percent of patients.
Due to this landmark study, GBM patients who have a good performance status are now
typically treated with concurrent radiation and temozolomide followed by adjuvant
temozolomide. However, this standard therapy still only results in a median survival of
about 14.6 months and a progression-free survival of about 6.9 months. Given these low
survival rates, new approaches are needed. The addition of a molecularly-targeted therapy to
the standard treatment is an approach that merits further investigation.
GBM, Molecular Markers, and Radiosensitization In GBM, PTEN mutations occur in about a third
of patients while EGFR or EGFRvIII (truncated EGFR) amplification occurs in up to 40% of
patients. These changes have been shown to correlate with a poor prognosis. Over the past
decade EGFR and Ras have been shown to modulate tumor radiosensitivity. EGFR has a number of
downstream effectors that include Ras and PI3K. EGFR and Ras-mediated radioresistance is
mediated, at least in part by PI3K, and phosphorylated Akt (P-Akt) is a good marker for this
effect . We have previously shown in head and neck cancer that P-Akt is a good predictor of
clinical response to radiation. We and others have shown that blocking PI3K-Akt pathway
enhances radiation response in vitro and in vivo. Radiosensitization occurs in cells in
which this pathway is constitutively activated but does not occur in cells (such as normal
tissues) in which this pathway is not activated. Inhibition of this pathway, therefore, is a
promising approach for radiation sensitization. One difficulty in implementing this
therapeutic strategy has been obtaining the means to block this deregulated signaling
pathway in patients.
We have found that one class of commonly used drugs, the HIV protease inhibitors (HPIs)
interfere with PI3K-Akt signaling. These drugs given in combination with reverse
transcriptase inhibitors are the mainstay of the current therapeutic regimens for HIV
infected patients. The HPIs are peptidomimetics that inhibit the HIV aspartyl protease, a
retroviral enzyme that cleaves the viral gag-pol polyprotein and is necessary for the
production of infectious viral particles. One prominent side effect of HPI treatment is
insulin resistance. Since Akt, plays a key role in the coordinated regulation of growth and
metabolism by the insulin/IGFsignaling pathway, we explored the possibility that HPIs might
block the PI3K-Akt signaling axis in tumor cells and hence might be used clinically as
radiation sensitizers. We tested NFV and found that it inhibited Akt at concentrations that
are routinely achieved in patients. NFV also sensitized tumor cells both in vitro and in
vivo to radiation. HPIs have been used continuously in patients with well-characterized
pharmacokinetics. There are reports of HIV patients on protease inhibitors who have received
radiation therapy; no increase in side effects from the radiation have been reported and
clinical outcome may be improved.
In summary, there is clearly strong rationale to proceed with a clinical trial of NFV and
chemoradiation in GBM:
1. The prognosis in GBM patients is poor with median survival of 14.6 months with best
2. Preclinical work demonstrates NFV results in down regulation of Akt signaling in cancer
cells and results in radiation sensitization.
3. There is a high frequency of Akt activation in GBM, which has been linked to the
pathogenesis and maintenance of the tumor.
4. NFV has been shown to be distributed brain tissue while on therapy and is likely to
have increased brain penetrance during fractionated radiotherapy when disruption of the
blood-brain-barrier may occur.
5. NFV has not been shown to sensitize normal tissues to radiation.
6. NFV has been safely administered to HIV+ patients over the last decade with minimal
side effects.
To determine the safety, dose-limiting toxicities, and maximally tolerated dose of NFV concurrently with radiation and temozolomide.

Diversity Grows in the World of Oscar
As the Hollywood favorite "La La Land" continues to dominate the award season, it came to no surprise as the film brought in 14 nominations. But one major aspect to celebrate is the rise in diversity in the nominees. After receiving harsh criticism with #OscarsSoWhite last year, the Academy made major strides to diversify.

If you're shopping around for an office phone system, you may have come across Grasshopper. But it can be tough to understand all of the information about it, because it's often written in technical jargon.
Believe me, I've been there. It can feel like information overload when you're trying to compare the features of different phone systems.
But I'm going to simplify all of the technical stuff, so you can decide if the Grasshopper phone system is right for you.
Let's start with two of the technical terms that you may have heard about Grasshopper: "Virtual PBX System" and "Voice Over IP."
What are Virtual PBX Systems and Voice Over IP?
These two terms are actually a lot less complicated than they sound. They both boil down to the same thing: Grasshopper doesn't use the traditional telephone system to make and receive your phone calls. Instead, it handles the calls over the internet.
Why would I want to do this?
Placing your calls over the internet has a lot of advantages over traditional phone calls. You can get a lot more features at a much lower price, because you're harnessing the power of the internet, instead of the power of a piece of hardware attached to your phone.
In fact, Grasshopper doesn't use any hardware or software at all. You can set up everything online.
Personally, I'm a bit technophobic, so the fact that I don't have to screw around with any equipment is a big plus for me.
Can Grasshopper be used by mobile employees?
Yes! Companies that have employees who are frequently on the move, or who work from home, will love Grasshopper. You can set up Grasshopper to route calls to any cell phone that you want.
Additionally, your employees will be able to place calls from their cell phones, using their Grasshopper phone number instead of their personal number.
How does Grasshopper route my phone calls?
There are actually a few different ways that you can route your calls with the Grasshopper phone system, depending on how your business is set up.
If you want, you can set up a traditional extension system, and give each of your employees or departments their own extension.
You can also customize your main menu greeting, to let your callers know what extension to dial to get in touch with the appropriate person or department.
If you aren't a fan of extensions, you can set up a name directory so that your callers can search for the person they want by name.
Alternatively, you can set up your phone system to operate like a queue, with customizable rules for who receives each call.
For example, you could design your system so that the next-available employee automatically receives the next call in the queue as soon as they become available. Or, you could set it up so that each employee receives an approximately equal number of calls throughout the day.
This is very convenient, because Grasshopper offers unlimited call handling. The sky is the limit, so it's very easy to scale up your Grasshopper phone system if your business grows.
What happens when I place my callers on hold?
If you anticipate that your business will occasionally have more calls than it can handle, you can customize your hold music. You can choose from a few different selections, or create your own.
Or if music isn't your thing, you can create your own hold commercial to play while your callers wait for an employee to answer their call.
You don't even need to voice the hold commercial yourself, if you don't want to. In my opinion, one of the cooler features that Grasshopper offers is their voice studio, where you can get a professional voice talent to do your hold commercial for you.
Can Grasshopper act as a fax machine?
Yes and no. Grasshopper can be used to receive faxes, but not to send them out.
When you receive a fax, Grasshopper will automatically convert it into a PDF file and email it to you.
Unfortunately, there's no similar function to send faxes (at least not yet). I've never found this to be a problem; most people prefer to be emailed anyway.
But if you're going to be sending a lot of faxes and don't want to get a fax machine, be aware that Grasshopper is limited in this capacity. Check out my Grasshopper phone review for more information about this.
How does Grasshopper handle voicemails?
Since the Grasshopper phone system runs entirely online rather than through your office's phone network, your voicemails are online too.
Whenever you receive a voicemail, Grasshopper will send you an email with the voicemail attached as a WAV or MP3 file.
If you'd prefer not to listen to voicemails at all, Grasshopper will transcribe them for you and send you an email with the text of your voicemail.
How long do I have to commit?
Grasshopper is a lot better than its competitors in this regard. You don't have to worry about prepaid yearly plans, because Grasshopper doesn't offer them.
There's no long term commitment with Grasshopper. In fact, the company offers a 30-day money back guarantee.
Now that you know the features and limitations of Grasshopper, you can decide if it's a good choice for your business.
If you want to give Grasshopper a risk-free try for 30 days, click the link below to be taken to Grasshopper's official website.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Christmas Trees & Seasonal' started by Lawn Business, Nov 5, 2007.
It's my sisters house.
It kinda has a viking affect to it.
are you not using commercial grade?
Not the Icicles, No. My sister actually bought them from Canadian tire but the c9's are from Novelty Lights as well as the stringer.
Looks nice
are we getting to that time of the year...............................
I think so. I was at a birthday party over the weekend and was helping my cousin put some of his lights up.
Ya its that time of the year... I had alot of my customers from last year call in October wanting to make sure I would have their lights up by thanksgiving!
150 Christmas light properties, most want it up by thanksgiving...
I'm not a big fan of the c-9 plus icicle look, but yours is more of a garland look from the picture. I kinda like it.
it needs something down below to balance it. perhaps a scalloped mini-light run using 3' stakes from tractor supply? maybe some 3-d snowflakes or starbursts on stakes since there is not much landscaping to do mini-lights on.
a nice 4 foot wreath at the entry would be a great upgrade with a 24" bow at top.
just can't stop myself from throwing out ideas !
good luck
Window's and sidewalk would look nice!

OK so my boyfriend had to work last night. He called me when he got off which was at 11 pm. I was half asleep but I wanted to talk to him. Anyway, after maybe 20 minutes we started arguing. It was kind of my fault because I hate when he texts and talks to other girls all the time and I kind of brought up that subject because he told me earlier that he talked to one of his "girl friends" for a while before he called me and this is the same girl that keeps trying to break us up. So anyway, we were arguing about that and finally he said he was going to sleep but I was still talking. So then he just said "you're acting stupid" and he hung up on me. He hasn't texted me today and usually he does so should I text him first? Or just wait it out?
Most Helpful Guy
i agree wid anony,if you agree you hv done mistake then you shud text him
besides if he were anything even close to a cheat he would nvr tell you whom he calls or texts...
conversely if (suppose) you too are having some guy friend & you talk to him &he gets mad at u..u will also feel irritated...thou I understand your insecurity wen he talks to girl who wants to break-up you 2, I would suggest the best possible soln to this problem is for you 2 to sit &talk it out else it will continue to irk you &in turn affect your relationship!00|00|0
Thanks for your answer. I want to text him but I'm not really sure what to say. He is the one that hung up on me but I get the reason why but now I don't know what to say.
- Show AllShow Less
Okay thanks. Well I texted him saying sorry and all, and he texted back and just said "ok, so what are you doing now?" he changed the subject and is acting like it never happened. He does that a lot....I guess he just doesn't like talking about problems. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing but oh well. Lol

Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP)
The Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) is an application-based government aid program for Ontario resident students. Based on the government's assessment of your educational costs and expected financial resources, OSAP offers a mixture of repayable loans and grants (money you will not need to repay).
• be enrolled in at least 9 credits in each term, or 6 credits for those with permanent disabilities.
• be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or protected person,
• have Ontario residency
• register in an OSAP-approved degree program (Most York degree programs are)
• demonstrate financial need, taking into account gross family income and student resources and assets,
• maintain satisfactory academic progress while receiving OSAP aid.
• be enrolled full-time, taking a stand alone certificate (i.e. outside of a degree program),
• be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or protected person,
• have Ontario residency
• demonstrate financial need
• maintain satisfactory academic progress
• be registered in an OSAP approved certificate program. At York, these include:
i. Accounting (Professional)
ii. Anti-Racist Research and Practice
iii. Athletic Therapy
iv. Discipline of Teaching English as International Language (D-TEIL)
v. Emergency Management
vi. Fitness Assessment and Exercise Counselling
vii. GIS and Remote Sensing
viii. Health Administration
ix. Health Informatics (one year)
x. Human Resources Management
xi. Logistics (one year)
xii. Management
xiii. Marketing
xiv. Meteorology
xv. Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioner
xvi. Refugee and Migration Studies
xvii. Spanish/English Translation
xviii. Sports Administration
xix. Tech and Pro Writing
xx. Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)
xxi. Urban Studies
xxii. Women's Studies-Advanced
xxiii. Women's Studies-General
• Dropping courses
• Dropping to part-time status during the year
• Withdrawing from your program
• Increases in your income, awards, or other resources
• Reporting incorrect income information on your original application (you, parents, or spouse)
• Receiving more OSAP aid than you were entitled to in two academic years
• Failing courses
- Complete and submit the online OSAP application, identifying York University as your university. (*OSAP funds cannot be transferred from one school to another)
- Print the signature forms as required, and make sure that all signatures are included on the forms. (If even one signature is missing, the form will not be processed and your assessment and aid will be delayed)
- Attach any other required documentation to the signature forms.
- Submit the completed signature forms and supporting documentation to York University, preferably by June 30 for the next Fall/Winter session, to ensure that your funds are not delayed. You can place them in the drop box in the lobby of the Bennett Centre for Student Services (open 24 hours a day), or you can mail them to:
- Student Financial Services-York University Bennett Centre for Student Services 4700 Keele St, Toronto, ON, Canada, M3J 1P3
To receive your OSAP, you are required to complete and submit a Master Student Financial Assistance Agreement (MSFAA). This is a lifetime loan agreement that will cover you for all the time you are in full-time postsecondary studies, and only needs to be completed ONCE. As soon as you have completed and submitted your online OSAP application, print your MSFAA, complete it, carefully read the instructions, and take it to any participating Canada Post outlet in your area. Your funding cannot be disbursed until you have done so. Also remember to keep a copy of your MSFAA for future reference. You can complete your online OSAP application at the Government website here.
When do you complete this form? As soon as you have completed and submitted your Fall/Winter 2015-16 online OSAP application, print your MSFAA, complete it, carefully read the instructions, and take it to any participating Canada Post outlet in your area. Your funding cannot be disbursed until you have done so. When the completed form is received by the NSLSC, they will electronically inform the government that it has been received.
How will this benefit you? Once classes begin in September, the government will ask York's Student Financial Services to confirm your registration status, which includes your program, the year level of your program that you are entering, and course load. Once this is done, and this will depend on how quickly you enrol in all your courses, the government will authorize the release of your OSAP funds for the first instalment (60% of your total award) – that is, to send a payment to York if you agreed to re-direct OSAP money on your OSAP application, and the rest will be deposited into your bank account, or send a cheque to you. This means that it is no longer necessary for students to come to the Bennett Centre to pick up a paper loan/grant certificate form.
What about your second OSAP instalment? Later in the fall term, around late November, the government will notify you to go online, check your personal income that you had provided on your OSAP application, and you will need to confirm or update the information. This step will be critical as the second OSAP instalment in the Winter term will not be issued until this is done.
For Full-Time students:
- Married/Common-Law/Sole Support Parent: $570/week
- Single, no dependants: $370/week
For Part-Time students:
- Part-Time Canada Student Loan: $10,000
- Canada Student Grant for Persons with Permanent Disabilities: $2000
- Canada Student Grant for Part-Time Studies: $1800
- Canada Student Grant for Part-Time Students with Dependants: $1920
- Ontario Part-Time Grant: $500
The Debt Cap (The maximum amount of money a student borrower will have to repay) will also be set to inflation:
- $7,500 for a 2-term academic year
- $11,250 for a 3-term academic year

I'm pumped for NaNoWriMo, but I would love some exercises between now and then. Do you know of any sites where you are given challenges and can post your results?
sort by best latest
I have not heard of any such sites, but I would love for them to exist. Since most of my writing is poetry (which is not up to par compared to the poetry that I read and listen to), I would love to find things that put forth those challenges.
Right now, all I can find for those types of challenges are in books. They are primarily how-to books with input from various writing professors and teachers. For example, Rita Dove is a professor at the University of Virginia. She is also a Pulitzer Prize winner, former U.S. Poet Laureate and former Poet Laureate for Virginia. One of her lessons was to write any type of poem that would contain 12 words that she provided. For another type of challenge, I attempted to write a sestina poem with the same six repeated words that Elizabeth Bishop used in her poem "Sestina".
I do try to challenge myself to write at least 1000 words everyday. I try to stay realistic in that I do not expect those words to go toward one specific piece. If they do, that's great, but if not, there is always brainstorming for the next writing project.
I have also asked friends and family to put forth certain challenges for me. Unfortunately, they "don't have the time", or since they are not writers, they do not understand what I am looking for. The most frequent advice that I get from them is "just write whatever you want" or "write something 'happy' for a change". - "Uh ... yeah .... great .... thanks for your help .... NOT!!!!"
I do know that, lately, I have not been very focused. So, that is my latest challenge to myself - to get focused. Otherwise, HubPages will just be a blogging site like any other, which means "not paying".
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
I used to do some kind of a challenge on ezines, but I am not sure if they still do that anymore. It was like 100 articles in 100 days.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.

Rope (1948)
80 mins
Hitch Knot
Nobody commits a murder just for the experiment of committing it. Nobody except us - Brandon
Released in 1948 "Rope" is acknowledged as one of Alfred Hitchcock's more experimental movies. Between being set in just one location and shot in long 10 minutes takes which appear to merge into each other it feels like you are watching a thriller on the stage. And that is not so surprising as "Rope" is an adaptation of the 1929 play "Rope", interestingly adapted to the big screen by actor Hume Cronyn. It's also interesting as the story about 2 men committing a murder because they felt superior has its roots in history and the case of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb which in turn would inspire the much later movie "Murder by Numbers".
Brandon Shaw (John Dall - Spartacus) and Phillip Morgan (Farley Granger) decide to murder their friend David Kentley, in an act to prove their superiority to others. And what better way to prove this than to place their victim in an old wooden chest in their New York apartment and then hold a dinner party for guests including Kentley's father, girlfriend and their former mentor Rupert Cadell (James Stewart - Call Northside 777) who gave them the idea of superior murder. With Brandon getting off on what they are doing, Phillip struggles, raising the suspicions of Rupert who begins to put 2 and 2 together.
From a storyline point of view "Rope" feels like a mix of cat and mouse with a traditional detective story despite there being not a single detective in site. We watch Brandon & Phillip murder an 'inferior' friend then host a dinner party, and in the case of Brandon take almost pleasure in the fact that his guests are oblivious to the fact that in a box in the living room is the dead body of their victim. We watch as he almost taunts those around him with almost innuendo like statements as to what has just happened seeing how far he can push things, inflating his already large ego as being superior to all those around him.
At the same time, whilst Brandon almost gets off on the danger, we watch Phillip struggle with his part in the murder and the despicable games which Brandon plays with those in the room. Which leads to their former tutor Rupert who having sowed the seeds of thought about murder of the inferior finds himself playing detective, suspicions raised by the nature of Brandon & Phillip and into a game of cat and mouse as Brandon tries to outwit him.
As such "Rope" has that feeling of a game of Cluedo with the exception that we know what happened. We watch as Rupert observes the two young men, picking up on their mannerisms, clues, abnormalities and rather brazen choice of discussion to come to the conclusion that maybe they have taken his concept of inferior murder too literally. It sort of works because whilst some of the unravelling of the clues seems a little too obvious the fact that Rupert explains his reasoning as to why he suspects them of murder gives us that semi insight into the mind of a detective, except that he isn't one.
Aside from this mix of detective and cat n mouse "Rope" most certainly pays homage to its roots from the stage. Hitchcock used "Rope" as an experiment with it not only being his first movie in colour but also that it was shot in long 10 minute takes and this technique which combined with it being set in one location, predominantly a single room really delivers that feel of being a play.
The use of long takes, 10 minutes of singular camera action is quite brilliant, yes you do get the transitions where the camera will suddenly stop panning and focus on one insignificant object as the film is changed, but you don't notice this immediately. For me I was half an hour into the movie until it suddenly dawned on me that what I was watching what was almost just one long take, from one camera. And as such from a technical point of view, the clever manipulation of the set and camera to accommodate this is just brilliant.
Adding to that feeling of being almost stage like is the acting and it has to be said that whilst the big name star of "Rope" is James Stewart it is the performances of John Dall as Brandon Shaw and Farley Granger as Phillip Morgan which make it so entertaining. John Dall as Brandon is captivating with his sense of superiority as well as devious and conniving in the way he gets off on his manipulation of those at his dinner party, Whilst Farley Granger is just as captivating as the struggling Phillip. Together they are a contrasting pair and it works so much so that James Stewart is for once over shadowed, almost just a supporting role.
Now of course as is now common place people like to find deeper meaning, another level of context to Hitchcock's movies and one of the most often mentioned is the homoerotic undertones in "Rope". This is all built around the fact that the real life murderers Leopold and Loeb were homosexuals and we are lead to assume that Brandon and Phillip live together and Brandon is the more dominant of the pair, almost bullying Phillip to do what he wants. I suppose you could say this is true, and as such Hitchcock pulled one out of the bag to get such a movie passed the 1940's censors. But this deeper context does not really influence the movie, the pleasure of watching it and seems like many try to make something more out of something than needs to be.
What this all boils down to is that "Rope" is a very good movie and different to what you would probably expect from Alfred Hitchcock. It is experimental and the series of long takes combined with the one location pays homage to the stories roots of being a stage play. But it is the wonderful performances from John Dall and Farley Granger which make it so fun to watch as the cat and mouse games occur.
