Are u drug addict?
Nope I don't do drugs.
No, but gettin' lit is fun.
Have an opinion?
No most people here are kids and too goody goody so no most of them are not I'm sure...
I've only done marijuana a lot
No I dont ever touch them
Nopidy nope. Have never been and never will be.
I'm addicted to caffeine. I'm ok with that. I figure there are plenty more things I could be doing wrong.
Till the age of 16 I've tasted some drugs but didn't get addicted cause they were ewwwwwww
I don't know why I ain't addicted to them though I'm really addicted to potato chips 🍟😍
Yup. I smoke weed every day, snort cocaine most days, have smoked heroin a couple times and do party drugs like molly, amphetamine and MDMA when the opportunity arises.
nope, luckily not lol
yes im addicted to sandwiches
No I am not though I took drugs for a brief period of time back in 2010.
hahaha no!
i used to be addicted to heroin and i relapsed a few times. recently i was on a 3 month binge, and now i am almost 30 days clean. never going that way again.
@TripleAce no lol. heroin wraps you in a bubble of nothingness. when you're addicted to heroin you are numb to everything. you brain is so stimulated by the drug, so the "natural highs" like adrenaline rushes and good vibes and just all outside stimuli mean nothing to you. in short, when you're on heroin, nothing really matters to you.
@TripleAce when i was still on heroin i would go out with friends to a bar or something, and i'd be sitting there, sometimes even with girls, waiting to go home, sit in my room, do some lines of heroin and chain smoke cigarettes
No I am not.
no ma'am i am not. b
The only drug I'm addicted to is GAG.
No, and I don't plan on ever doing drugs
But... Drugs are fun...
I'm a drug enthusiast
Totally. I'm addicted to antihistamines because I have a billion allergies.
If food counts as a drug, yeah.
Music is my drug of choice.
No, I've never done any kind of drugs.
Nutella is the only drug I need. 😍
I'm a recovering addict. I was addicted to drugs and alcohol from the time I was 12 to the time I was 17, and now I'm just addicted to nicotine, caffeine, and sugar, so I'm making progress.
Nope, I'm a totally boring teetotaller

Tamara Włodarczyk
Świdnica is located in the southern part of Lower Silesia Province, in Świdnica District, on the Świdnica Plain, on the Bystrzyca River. It lies on the periphery of the Sudeten and Wałbrzych Mountains at 225-265.9 m above sea level. It is characteristically tightly built up; at its center is the Old Town, begun in the Middle Ages and modified in subsequent periods. Eleven picturesque parks, mostly set on the foundations of 18th-century fortifications, encircle the center of town and its outskirts.
Tamara Włodarczyk
The presence of Jews in Świdnica is first mentioned in the second half of the 13th century, when in 1285 the Jews obtained their first privilege: Henryk IV Probus relieved them from the basic communal rent for landed property and some other dues ordinarily paid by townspeople. In 1295, the Świdnica Jewry obtained a privilege from Prince Bolko I, which laid the groundwork for a Jewish settlement in the town.
The Jewish community in Świdnica was among the largest and most important in Silesia. In 1370 Princess Agnieszka issued a protective letter in which she proclaimed that the cemetery in Świdnica would be the only necropolis in her principality, to be used by Jews from surrounding towns, Dzierżoniowo, Jawor, Niemcza and Strzegom, and perhaps also Ząbkowice and Ziębice. Since 1380 there was also a synagogue in Swidnica, located in 'Kupferschmiedegasse'.
The medieval Jewish district was located between Zakonnic (now Siostrzana) and Bednarska (today Teatralna) Streets and ran parallel to the northern frontage of the Main Square and the beginning of Wysoka (today Pułaskiego) Street. The second concentration of Jews was on Garncarska, called Jewish (today Budowlana) Street. Principality and, beginning in 1379, a Talmudic school operated there.
The Jewish community in Świdnica enjoyed a special status: as an institution, it had extensive administrative-organizational and religious autonomy. Eminent Jewish scholars and rabbis, including learned Ozer and rabbi Dawid, settled in Świdnica. A center for Talmudic studies was located there.
In 1453 the Jews were accused of poisoning a well, which allegedly led to the outbreak of an epidemic. This resulted in the burning at the stake of 17 Jews, who were also charged with the profanation of the Host. Property belonging to the other Jews was confiscated and they were expelled from the town. All this happend after a speech of the anti-Jewish monk Capistrano. The demolition of their cemetery, whose tombstones were used as building material, accompanied the destruction of their community.
Świdnica was given the privilege of a permanent ban on Jewish settlement in 1457, which was in force until the late 18th century. From 1457 to 1799, not a single Jew lived there.
Following the emancipation edict of 1812, Jews again began to settle in Świdnica. First they had on

Under Konstruktion: Constructivist Architecture2013-06-17 11 Share Tweet
Here's a little history behind the new Konstruktor camera! Rooted in concepts like cubism, modernism, and futurism, Constructivist architecture was the Soviet Union's way to use art for a social purpose, heading towards the newly emerging Russia.
Following the Russian Revolution of 1917, the emergence of Constructivist art brought along Constructivist architecture, as the Soviet Union used advancing technology and superior engineering for a Communist purpose during this sociopolitical and economic tansitional period. Futurists like Tatlin argued that art shouldn't just be admired from a museum wall, but made to be useful by the people.
Tatlin's Tower was the premier Constructivist structural project. In 1919, the first plans to build the headquarters of the Comintern of St. Petersburg were announced and materials such as glass and steel were used for the prototype but it was never completed.
Elements of Constructivist architecture:
- minimal
- geometric
- spatial
- architectonic
- experimental
Constructivist building features:
- glass and steel
- machine-made building parts
- technological details such as antennae, signs, and projection screens
- abstract geometric shapes
- a sense of movement
Constructivist architects:
- Vladimir Tatlin
- Konstantin Melnikov
- Nikolai Milyutin
- Aleksandr Vesnin
- Iakov Chernikhov
Sources include Wikipedia, World of Level Design, Snegourotchka, About and ArtBlart.
The Konstruktor is the world's first Do-It-Yourself 35mm SLR camera. With it, you can easily build your very own camera from scratch.

Spam prevention without using CaptchaAsked by rsvpfree on March 09, 2015 at 05:43 AM
Dear Jotform - A SUGGESTION
I have a personal dislike of Captcha as a technique, and will do everything I can to avoid it.
I think it is bad design practise to use Captcha because anything which makes life harder for your users is never a good idea.
I know of what I speak because my eyesight is not 100% so I often have difficulty reading other people Captchas.
My suggestion is to use the "false email field" technique: the field in which you ask for a user's email should be called anything but email (say 'fred' or 'malein') but you create a hidden field whose name is 'email' then spambots are likely to place an email address in that hidden field (since they usually read the source code, not having eyes to see the actual page!)
Therefore, you can discard any submission with anything in the hidden 'email' field as being spam.
My suggestion is that Jotform includes a function in each form called 'False Email' with options: enabled/disabled, and if enabled an email address to which any submission with data in the hidden field is sent.
This way, the form owner can collect data on spams submitted, without their good inbox being cluttered with them.
What do you think, Jotform?
JotForm Founder
JotForm alreay has many similar and other secret techniques to prevent the spam. So, CAPTCHA is not needed in your JotForm forms at all. W have it because many people ask for it.
Thank you, aytekin. Do you have any articles on how to use such techniques?
JotForm Founder
You don't need to do anything to enable/use them. We already have them on all JotForm forms.
We don't talk about the techniques we use since that would help spammers.
Did you ever received spam on JotForm?
My forms are still under development, and have not yet been "released into the wild", so I don't know if I will get any!
I was just trying to improve my understanding of Jotform while learning how best to use it : )
I'll get back to you if spam becomes a problem to me.....
JotForm Support
Please get back to us if you have any spam issues, so that we can investigate about it.
Let us know if you need any help. We'll be more than happy to assist you.
Thank you for choosing JotForm.

Adhering to a good diet and nourishment for the elderly is incredibly affected by a few variables, one of them being an adjustment in body piece. Amid the later years in life, the body will lose bone and muscle and increase fat in light of the fact that the hormones aren't extremely dynamic any longer.
There are many components which prevent an elderly individual's well being. The data underneath will help you to lead a solid life – regardless of how old you might be.
Water in the body diminishes with age, such a variety of more established people will get to be distinctly got dried out effectively. In some cases they won't feel parched, while different circumstances it's an excessive amount of work to set out a glass a water. In light of this current, it's prescribed that they drink no less than 1 ounce of water for each 2.2 pounds of weight.
At this phase in life, protein is imperative.
Protein is expected to bolster a solid insusceptible framework and keep the squandering of muscle. Since vitality needs are less, more seasoned people ought to eat brilliant protein, for example, eggs, incline meats, poulty, and angle.
Sugars are the principle wellspring of vitality for the whole body. You can discover carbs in bread, oats, pasta, and other grain items. An eating regimen that is high in fiber and water will counteract clogging too.
Fat admission for the elderly ought to be constrained, not dispensed with. You can constrain fat by picking incline meats, low fat dairy items, and sustenance preperation techniques that do exclude fricasseeing.
For the elderly, press lack can be seen with the individuals who aren't eating much. Great hotspots for iron incorporate incline red meats or breakfast grains.
Zinc admission is ordinarily with the elderly, and to aggravate matters, it's not assimilated extremely well either. Meat, poultry, and fish ought to be a piece of your eating regimen to help you meet the prerequisites for zinc.
Calcium is one fixing that most elderly people just aren't getting enough of. Most trust that drain irritates their stomach, and in this manner they will maintain a strategic distance from it. They ought to get around 1,500 mg of calcium a day, and nonfat powdered drain can be utilized as a part of formulas as a substitute for drain. Different sustenance's, for example, yogurt, low fat cheddar, and broccoli can likewise help you meet the prerequisites for calcium.
With a specific end goal to assimilate the advantages of B12, the inborn factor must be delivered by the stomach. Most elderly individuals experience the ill effects of a lack in B12 in light of the fact that they have a condition known as atrophic gastritis. This condition causes irritation of the stomach, bacterial abundance, and the inborn component. Without the inherent element, this vitamin can be consumed.
Every one of the above supplements are expected to keep a matured body healthy. Elderly people ought to attempt to remain dynamic and take a stab at a very much adjusted eating regimen. Despite the fact that the matured body isn't the same as it used to be, appropriate care and the correct supplements can help the elderly appreciate a sound and long life.

Weird. Brilliant. Stunning. Under the Skin is by far the most memorable movie of the first few months of 2014.Chicago Sun-Times Full Review
This stark and intensely controlled film is the work of a powerful visual stylist and storyteller, one who looks like he belongs on the short list of directors who have carried the narrative methods of the silent era deep into modern cinema.Salon.com Full Review
A brilliant science fiction movie — more of an "experience" than a traditional story, with plenty to say about gender roles, sexism and the power of lust?RogerEbert.com Full Review
Watching this film feels like a genesis moment — of sci-fi fable, of filmmaking, of performance — with all the ambiguity and excitement that implies.Los Angeles Times Full Review
Very little in Under the Skin is clear at all. Its secrets unspool in mysterious, supple ribbons, but that's part of its allure, and its great beauty.Village Voice Full Review
Throughout, what truly matters to director Jonathan Glazer is articulating through visual and aural enticement the unconscious power of our death drive.Slant Magazine Full Review
You may not be sure what you've seen, but you've sure seen something. With neither a petticoat nor a wideboy in sight, this is one of the most original and exciting British movies in some time.Total Film Full Review
It's an intoxicating marvel, strange and sublime: it combines sci-fi ideas, gloriously unusual special effects and a sharp atmosphere of horror.Time Out London Full Review
Glazer's astonishing film takes you to a place where the everyday becomes suddenly strange, and fear and seduction become one and the same.The Telegraph Full Review
Under the Skin is perhaps best viewed as an icy parable of love, sex and loneliness.The Guardian Full Review
There's something fairly malignant in the way Glazer's strange movie holds attention, against the urge to give up and leave. There is no doubting its boundless artistry or pretension, a dangerous position for any movie in today's love-me pop culture to place itself in. Under the Skin is exactly where it gets.Tampa Bay Times Full Review
Under The Skin is rich with menacing atmosphere, so much so that viewers could probably tune out the narrative and still get on the proper wavelength.The A.V. Club Full Review
Glazer is nothing if not ambitious; the rough edge of naturalism, on the streets, slices into the more controlled and stylized look of science fiction, and the result seems both to drift and to gather to a point of almost painful intensity.The New Yorker Full Review
Actors aren't Navy SEALs, I know, but Johansson was, in fact, brave to take on this role: brave in that it's a sharp left turn from what audiences expect or even like; brave in that she embraced an artistically bold method of building a movie when most other movie stars would have said no thanks to the idea of chatting up random Scotsmen in a van.Slate Full Review
The movie's eerie, climactic image challenges our conventional notions of human identity and leaves us reflecting on the possibility that every being in the universe is an alien in disguise.The New York Times Full Review
The extraordinary achievement of Under The Skin is that while Laura develops some human qualities, Glazer resists the temptation to turn this alien's story into the story of what it means to be human.The Dissolve Full Review
What makes Under the Skin such a mind-blower has everything to do with Johansson's chillingly unempathetic turn as the, well, whatever she is, coupled with cinematographer Daniel Landin's disorienting, hallucinogenic visuals.Austin Chronicle Full Review
A deeply creepy and mysterious noir.Philadelphia Inquirer Full Review
It feels fresh and unpredictable, as quietly strange as the remarkable musical score from first-time feature film composer Mica Levi.Chicago Tribune Full Review
With long, quiet takes in which he simply observes Johansson wordlessly taking in the world around her, Glazer infuses the everyday modern world with a surpassing sense of strangeness and doom.Washington Post Full Review
What's under the film's surface is intriguing enough, but it's the surface itself that holds you in a dark trance. A portrait of alienation filmed from the alien's point of view — or is it just a woman's? — the movie's a cinematic Rubik's Cube that snaps together surprisingly easily, yet whose larger meanings remain tantalizingly out of reach.Boston Globe Full Review
A brave experiment in cinema that richly rewards the demands it makes. The result is an amazement, a film of beauty and shocking gravity.Rolling Stone Full Review
Virtually all science fiction functions as metaphor, and I took this film to be a metaphor for the act of becoming fully human.Charlotte Observer Full Review
A totally wacky head-trip with midnight movie sensibilities and a daring avant garde spirit, Glazer's movie is ultimately too aimlessly weird to make its trippy narrative fully satisfying, but owes much to Johansson's intense commitment to a strangely erotic and unnerving performance unlike anything she has done before.indieWIRE Full Review
Johannson turns out to be perfectly cast, being able to shift from blank alien mode to kittenish seduction without ever letting you see the switch being turned on or off.The Playlist Full Review
Under the Skin is a deliberately oblique piece of work that prizes rhythms and textures above hows and whys.Film.com Full Review
Under the Skin is, in short, a film that does just that: gets under one's skin, shining a light on what it means to be human -- even if what we end up seeing is something less than comforting.New Orleans Times-Picayune Full Review
Yes, Glazer asks a lot of his audience. At times the movie feels like something you've walked in to the middle of, so you're thrown off balance. Yet it's hypnotic — you want to stick around to see what happens, and maybe just to figure out what the hell is going on.Arizona Republic Full Review
Under the Skin isn't conventional, thrilling or particularly satisfying in a sci-fi aliens-are-hunting-us sense. But it manages something far more sinister and fascinating. It gets under your skin and imprints on your memory.McClatchy-Tribune News Service Full Review
It's as existential as a sci-fi/horror film can possibly be. It requires that the viewer slip into a meditative mood and remain there for more than 90 minutes.ReelViews Full Review
At times the film is right on the border between mesmerizing and narcotizing, but it casts an otherworldly spell.New York Magazine (Vulture) Full Review
Much of this is fascinating, as far as it goes, but it wouldn't go as far as it does into drama were it not for Ms. Johansson's wonderfully strange performance.Wall Street Journal Full Review
All this is initially fascinating, and then progressively less so. The problem is the usual serial-killer issue – things, no matter how weird and kinky, get repetitive.The Globe and Mail (Toronto) Full Review
Odd and sexy, troubling and touching, frustrating and mesmerising, dull and haunting. A film by Jonathan Glazer.Empire Full Review
More pictorially arresting than intellectually coherent.The Hollywood Reporter Full Review
As a film, Under the Skin is hauntingly freaky and ultimately frustrating. But as a movie star's gamble to be seen as more than just a moneymaking member of the Marvel universe, it's a home run.Entertainment Weekly Full Review
Under the Skin can be confused for a movie that hides its meanings, when it's really a movie that hides its meaninglessness.San Francisco Chronicle Full Review
There's atmosphere here, but nothing else.New York Daily News Full Review
Glazer has always been longer on atmosphere and uncanny moods than on narrative, but the fatal flaw of Under the Skin isn't that not much happens; it's that what does happen isn't all that interesting.Variety Full Review
Under the Skin falls in love with its bleak monotony. It is a melodrama with all the thrills surgically excised.Time Full Review
Tedious and pretentious.New York Post Full Review
I certainly wish Ms. Johansson hadn't shown up at all. She's never less than interesting to watch, but Under the Skin is a big waste of her time.New York Observer Full Review

Scheme drawn up by local firm 7N
Local practice 7N Architects has submitted plans for a 12,000sq m office block in Edinburgh.
The building for developer EDI Group is planned for the India Quay regeneration project in the Fountainbridge area of the Scottish capital.
The practice said the building will place a high emphasis on wellbeing with tall, naturally lit, floor plates and a hybrid ventilation system.
The firm developed the masterplan for the India Quay site back in 2013 and is also working on plans for more than 400 homes across four buildings at the development which will be a mixture of rented and affordable housing.
Meanwhile, Hoskins Architects and local practice Comprehensive Design Architects have completed a mixed-use scheme in Edinburgh's historic New Town.
Called South St Andrew Square, this scheme includes around 10,000sq m of office space as well close to 7,000sq m of leisure and retail. A number of apartments have also been built. The scheme has been developed by Standard Life.

Michigan's new Governor is throwing his support behind a new Detroit-Windsor bridge, striving to break a political impasse in the state legislature that is preventing the $5.3-billion (U.S.) megaproject from being built.
The surprise endorsement from Rick Snyder, a Republican sworn in as Governor on Jan. 1, breathes new life into a long-delayed bridge proposal backed by Ottawa as a solution to costly delays at North America's busiest commercial crossing. Goods worth $150-billion – or one-quarter of the merchandise trade between Canada and the United States – flow across the congested Ambassador Bridge every year.
But the new Detroit River International Crossing, which Ottawa would support with a $550-million loan to Michigan, has been mired in controversy. Many Republicans argue that a new taxpayer-financed crossing isn't needed.
The government-backed crossing would be three kilometres southwest of the Ambassador Bridge, which is privately owned by Michigan businessman Manuel (Matty) Moroun. He has fiercely defended his property, filing lawsuits against critics and acquiring large tracts of land on both sides of the border to build another span next to his bridge.
Now, with the Governor siding with Ottawa, the government plan has awakened from near-dead to strong contender. If Mr. Snyder gets his way, he will make converts of skeptical Republicans and finally get the megaproject started. The stakes are high, given how fragile the Detroit-Windsor crossing is, especially when winter storms can bring crucial international trade slowing to a crawl.
Canadian Transport Minister Chuck Strahl said Ottawa is eager to assist Michigan to forge ahead. Last year, Ottawa offered to lend money to Michigan to jump start construction, and Mr. Strahl is hoping politicians in the Michigan state House and Senate will pass "authorizing legislation" to clear the way for the new project. Political observers say Republicans' refusal to allow a vote on the Senate floor last month effectively froze the new crossing.
The Ontario government is set to collaborate with Ottawa and Washington on the project, which has been in the design phase since 2005.
The megaproject could cost $5.3-billion, including roads and other infrastructure. Michigan is not only in a position to receive loans from Ottawa, the state has also lined up $550-million in matching funding from the U.S. Federal Highway Administration. Ottawa expects to gradually recoup its money through bridge tolls.
"This new bridge will create jobs, strengthen our economy and help establish Michigan as a hub for global commerce," Mr. Snyder said in an address Wednesday night to the state legislature in Lansing. He is seeking to win over Republicans who favour plans for the Ambassador Bridge twin span.
While former Michigan Democratic governor Jennifer Granholm is a strong proponent of the government-backed bridge, Mr. Snyder declined to reveal his policy position during his election campaign.
In his State of the State address, however, he emerged as a cheerleader for the plan, saying the public-private partnership would pave the way for Michigan's return to prosperity. "This project isn't just a Detroit issue. Every farmer and manufacturer in our state can tell you why it's important to have world trade," Mr. Snyder said.
Ed Arditti, a Windsor lawyer and blogger who has been tracking the rival bridge plans, said Thursday that Mr. Snyder still has much political arm-twisting to do if he wants to persuade Republican lawmakers to get onside. Mr. Arditti said any attempts to outmanoeuvre Mr. Moroun won't be easy, given his stranglehold on truck traffic on the Ambassador Bridge.
Proponents say the huge project would generate more than 30,000 construction jobs in the Detroit-Windsor region, including workers for the Windsor-Essex Parkway – a proposed thoroughfare to the new crossing from Highway 401, a major artery in southern Ontario.

Kardashians Slam Former Stepmother
Kim and Khloe Kardashian aren't too thrilled with their former step-mom, Ellen Pearson.
On Thursday, the two reality TV starlets took to their Twitter to slam Pearson, who married reality starlets' father Robert Kardashian Sr. in 2003 two months before his death, after she openly claimed their mother Kris Jenner had beaten her children in the past.
"So my dad's ex is selling ridiculous stories again to tabloids! Do not believe it! Sad when people need $ & get desperate," Kim, 32, wrote. "10 yrs since dad passed &this woman he married 4 2 wks before he died needs 2 get a job instead of trying 2 destroy families w fake stories."
Likewise, Khloe, 28, had some heated words for Pearson.
"You have no right to even mention our names especially my mothers! We don't know you!!! How dare you spread such lies! You are a disgrace," she tweeted following her sister's Twitter rant. "10yrs after my fathers passing&now that she has filed for bankruptcy… NOW she sells FALSE stories. Hope that money buys you water in hell."
On Jan. 16, Khloe took to her blog to slam tabloids for spreading false reports claiming that she's not Robert's biological daughter.

Say hello to Aftab Shivdasani, who looks jaw-dropping hot with those chiseled abs and short-cropped hair in his impending flick Red. In an exclusive interview, the Mast boy talks about his adventures playing a passionate character in Vikram Bhatt's romantic thriller.
What is your take on the film Red?
Red for me essentially is an intense thriller. It is a story of principally three people - a love story between two and the third person is a very important character to take this story forward. It is about a man who is on his deathbed, who needs a donor as he is suffering from a heart ailment. Just when he loses all hope, he gets a donor and he comes back to life and starts to live it all over again. I play the role of Neil Oberoi. He is a very passionate guy, a very intense guy. He loves to live life. So when he comes back to life, he goes ahead and wants to thank the family of the donor, where he finds out that Celina's husband is dead. So he goes to thank her, and he instantly falls in love. She is living a lonely life, she finds support in him and then the story unfolds with the fact that her husband who is the donor of the heart did not die in an accident, he was murdered. Then the story talks about how they get together to solve the entire issue and that is where Amrita comes in and makes the whole plot even more complicated.
What does the colour Red imply in this film?
It implies a lot of danger, a lot of passion, a lot of romance.
You have worked with Vikram Bhatt before, how was it working with him this time around?
This time again, doing a film like Red was a different experience. Vikram and I always live through whatever project we do. So the experiences are always different from each other, in fact, we have just completed a film yesterday called Life Mein Kabhi Kabhi which is again a very different kind of a film.
Life Mein Kabhi Kabhi is a drama about five friends, it is an emotional film, and it is a fun, youthful film. It is a drama so to speak but Red was an extremely intense. He was very clear that he was doing something which we have done before in terms of a genre, like Kasoor. So it was a good experience going back to where we started off first. We met during Kasoor, we got really friendly and we developed an equation. Then to come back to a genre like Kasoor, succeeded by a couple of notches indeed was a special experience because today we are both much more matured, we have grown a lot as people as well as professionally. So it was like getting back to the basics, but yet two different people getting back together.
How easy or difficult was your first on-screen kiss?
My on-screen kiss with Celina was difficult on paper! But when we actually went ahead and did it, it was not that bad, it was in fact quite nice because there was certain level of comfort involved, and we were just two professionals doing our job. We wanted to make it look really nice and convincing; we didn't want to make it look like just another screen kiss because it does not make sense. If you want to keep all your ruminations aside and do something out of the ordinary so to speak, make sure that it looks extraordinary and that is what we intended to do.
We wanted to make the kiss look really nice and convincing.
You were very comfortable with Celina?
We worked out the chemistry in such a way that there was a lot of comfort between us.
And how was it working with Amrita?
Amrita and I are very good friends even off-screen. We hang out a lot together, so of course it was like working with a buddy. So there was no need to break the ice, we have worked together in the film Awaara Pagal Deewana and we were getting back to working with each other after a long time. So we were really excited working with each other and Amrita has got a very strong character. She is playing a woman for the first time; she is not playing a girl. People are so used to see Amrita Arora in a very girly kind of a perception, in girl attires. But after Red, they are going to see her in her element as a woman. She is very attractive, very sexy in the movie and she just woos you with a lot of sex appeal in the movie. So it is just great to see her going through the entire transformation, the kind of work that she has done on herself, with her performance, her body language, her attire, and of course with Vikram's direction, is commendable.
You are really going to look very different now. Was anything special done for your look in the film?
Yes, we decided to do something so as to reinvent myself. Vikram did not want the same Aftab Shivdasani that he has worked with, that people have seen in the past, so he said, "Aftab, let us try something different" and he gave me freedom to do what I wanted. Of course he helped me get a trainer, for about forty days, I trained to get into shape, and I did that very religiously. I cut my hair, and I just wanted to make sure that it will look different and the guy that you will see in Red is not the guy you have seen ever before.
What was one thing you loved about Red? Was it a challenge?
I cannot really pinpoint one thing and say that I love about Red because the entire experience was special. Red is going to be a film that will go down in history as one of my favourite films because it has been an intense film, something that I like doing, something that I consider a huge challenge to do because I had to show myself off very differently, which I have not done. To form an image is easy but once you have formed an image, to break away from that and to form a completely new image is very difficult. So that is what I would consider my biggest challenge, at this point in time in my life and career with Red.
Red is going to be a film that will go down in history as one of my favourite films
Your favourite song...
There is a song called, Ek Tum Hi Bache, it is a climax song, it is a situational song and also a fast number but it has beautifully shot. It is very romantic, very passionate but it is very meaningful to the film. Of course Afreen is very popular; it is the most popular song today and that is my next favourite song.
And when can we expect to see more of Aftab?
After Red, there is a film called Life Mein Kabhi Kabhi with Vikram again; a film called De Taali with E Niwas, there is Riteish and me in it. And there is a film called Speed again with Vikram, it has got me, Zayed, and Urmila.

The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Avero (New York, NY) in December 2010.
I am absolutely disgusted with how Avero treats candidates.
They found my resume on LinkedIn and I initially had a phone interview with the woman who was transitioning out of the position to go to grad school. We had a wonderful phone interview, spanning about 40 minutes, and she let me know she would recommend for me to meet with her boss when her boss returned from maternity leave. All good, right?
I then went in for an in-person interview with my direct boss, the only other person in the HR department. She was very loud, in your face, and dismissive. Throughout the entire interview, I felt like she was forcing me to argue my own opinions to questions like, "how did you like your undergraduate experience?" and letting me know that my reasons for moving from an admin role to an HR role weren't "that great". She had me meet with a contractor who was doing payroll in her maternity leave absence, and I left thinking it wasn't a great experience.
They called back and had me come back to meet with the person I had done the phone interview with and their CFO. Those interviews went well, and I met up again with the VP of HR. She asked me if I was still interested in the role and I gave her an emphatic "yes" and she wanted to know if they hired me the position if I would take it - again, I told her 100%. She asked me if I could wait until January (It was mid December at this point) and I told her yes, if you make me an offer, I will sign the letter right now. She told me to wait by the phone for the next day.
I heard from her a week later to let me know they were pushing off making a decision until after the new year and to reach out if I was still looking. In those 2 weeks, I was offered and accepted a similar position, also in NYC. If they wanted to move forward with another candidate, they should have just told me no!
I then recommended a friend to the position and my friend was ultimately rejected because they had gone with another candidate, only to see the same exact job posted the day after she was rejected!
Run away from Avero. The VP of HR seems to be a bit whacked.

Char Shelton's Profile
I live on the farm where I was born and raised. My husband and I purchased the farm back from my parents about 18 years ago. It has been a dream come true!
My husband is an avid hunter and fisherman. Our favorite meal is whatever he brings home; venison, elk, salmon, sturgeon, clams, etc. One of our very favorite meals is Kokonee fish that we catch at Wickiup Reservoir, one of the high lakes in Oregon. We fish the reservoir two or three times each summer.
My soaps are handmade in a smoke free home. It is all natural. I prefer Goat Milk Soap however I also make Soybean soap which is also very nice. My husband hand crafts wooden soap dishes from Western Red Cedar, Redwood, and Cedar of Lebanon which is all reclaimed wood off of our farm or from the beach.
We love crafting of all types; jewelry, soap making,…

The rain began softly and I didn't notice it until it was a full on shower. The La Salle Hotel was only a few steps away so I darted into the building before I got too wet. The interior of the lobby was like nothing I would expect; the outside of the hotel was aged in a rustic way but the lobby was updated to scream modern. The furniture had sharp edges and was simplistic in its styling and colors. I stood by one of the large windows overlooking the street outside. The sight of people rushing to their cars or nearby shops distracted me from the guy sitting just to my right on a lounge sofa.
The guy seemed about my age if not younger and wasn't dressed like someone who would casually lounge at this hotel but then again neither was I. My brown hair looked shaggy because of the rain but my curls were never easy to manage. My skinny jeans and Strokes shirt stood out in a hotel like this. The guy peered up from his phone and looked directly at me. He smiled with a half grin and I was stunned in place.
He spoke first, "You're pretty wet…" He let his voice trail off.
With anyone else I would have given a sarcastic comment but I couldn't muster the confidence. Instead I spoke slowly, "Yes…it's raining." I laughed while shaking off my coat. His smile grew just a bit larger. "Do you mind if I sit with you? At least until the rain let's up."
His reserved demeanor melted away and I saw excitement in him, "Yeah, sure go ahead." He sat up straight and gestured to the cushion next to him. His smile became more relaxed as he turned his body to me.
I started to brush off my pants of leftover water when the guy spoke, "So... hi, I'm Simon." He didn't extend his hand to shake but he did look into my eyes. I was stunned again.
I finally spoke, "I'm James." We both sat there like fools smiling at each other for what seemed like forever. Then the conversation began and he told me his reasons for sitting in a hotel lobby. I told him how my plans got cancelled and ended up walking alone. He spoke of the article he was reading that had nothing to do with his work like it was the most interesting thing in the world. I told him about my favorite music but I don't think he quite understood dedication to one artist. We shot our opinions back and forth of topics that didn't matter in the long run. A few times we sat in silence, annoyed by the other. Eventually the annoyance would melt and I would need to hear his voice like my life depended on it. The rain outside never let up.
There was a lull in the conversation and I didn't know what to say.
Simon spoke, "I should be getting back to my room."
My eyebrow raised and then I realized that he would be leaving. I debated my options. To stay here in this odd lobby or to go with Simon. I preferred the former out of instinct but there was something here. It was that spark books and movies speak of; an immediate attraction that had to be acted on.
I looked Simon in the eyes again, "You're right, it's pretty late. Yeah, I should find something to do."
That was when the dynamic changed, Simon put his hand on mine. A simple movement, just a stretch of the hand to close the gap we've been teetering on for the past hour. It made his next words come out in that rose hazed filter you get when falling in love, "You can come up with me, if you'd like."
"I would." I said, just above a whisper.
Simon stood by the window of the hotel room overlooking the empty streets outside. He stood like someone who was trying. Like someone who needed others to know he had it together but when he turned to face me his stance changed. He was more relaxed. We smiled at each other and I floated across the room to see out the window.
I spoke first as we looked together, "Ahh, Bryan. It's a nice little town don't you think?"
"Yeah. I like it. I mean I'd like to be somewhere on the east coast."
"Like where?" I asked.
Simon thought about it for a moment and then smiled the biggest I've seen, "New York."
"Really?" I asked. He shook his head in content with his answer. "Hmm...I could get with the west coast but I'd prefer something more...hipster." Simon laughed out of nowhere. I shoved his shoulder playfully, "What?"
"Nothing, nothing it's just that was a perfect way to describe Boston."
"Yeah Boston! I would love to live there… even if for just awhile. Wait, have you been there?"
"No but my parents have visited a lot. I've seen pictures and stuff." Simon looked at me when he spoke again, "I could live there but only if with you. After school obviously, we're way too young to be thinking about that." He laughed and I turned from the window. My hand grazed his bicep. I could feel his eyes follow me as I walked across the room to the bed. He looked at me and I grinned back. I stretched my arm and motioned with my hand for him to join me on the bed. He came and sat next to me with his arm finding its natural place around me. We sat for a while just floating from topic to topic with ease. Eventually Simon got us drinks and we started with small glasses to passing the bottle of champagne back and forth.
The room was no longer quiet but filled with our drunk laughter. I would fall into him in my laughing fits; the smell of his skin was intoxicating but I withheld my urge to act on that spark that wanted to start again.
We were a bottle and a half in of champagne when we ended up face to face laying in the bed. The sky blue sheets were soft but they had nothing on his eyes. His brown eyes were staring into mine and I laughed at how his legs kept touching mine.
"What'ssofunny?" Simon said all in one word.
"Nothing." I said back. I pressed my lips together and slightly smiled at this beautiful man. He raised his hand to my face and wiped his thumb just under my eye; caressing my cheek in the lightest way.
"I want to kiss you." Simon said to me.
"Then why aren't you kissing me?" I asked
"Because I don't want to lose this."
"What is this?" I pressed on.
"I don't know." Simon said and for a minute I was sure the moment was over. But then he closed the gap between us; what a small and stupid gap. His lips pressed against mine and I felt nothing but also saw the heavens; this was the spark that would ignite us. He was going to start it and I braced myself for this burning. Does that make me a crazy man? To know something is about to completely destroy me but not move out its way? I am literally welcoming what I know will take me down.
The kiss lasted for a few seconds and then Simon pulled away slowly. His lips were practically touching mine and I felt a new kind of drunk. The type that comes from physical contact. The type of drunk you only come down from when you have more. And so we had more. I wanted all of him. I think Simon picked up on the change of gears and his body reacted with mine. Our hands were moving quickly and our breaths were shallow. The room was no longer filled with our laughter but with the sounds of our moans and I was embodying pure ecstasy.
"Tell me about your family, Simon." I said, barely above a whisper. My head was on Simon's chest and he was fiddling with the blanket we were both covered by. The room was silent. The question lingered in the air for a moment and I thought Simon was going to answer but he never did.
I pushed my hands off his body to sit up straight and look him in the eyes, "Simon? Are you going to answer?" I stared into his eyes but he was watching the wall.
He sighed and looked at me, "What do you wanna know?"
My eyes lit up, "Everything."
"Well...I mean. There's not much to tell. It's a big family but we're not close."
"Why not?"
Simon shrugged, "We're all different. That's just how we were raised. My parents work a lot. Really, all of those describe why." I scrunched my face like I had smelt something bad. I looked Simon in the eyes, pleading for him to go on. Simon quickly spun the moment to his favor, "That doesn't matter though because I've got you," he placed his hand on my cheek, "and I love you." Simon kissed me before I could react.
He pulled away and held my face so close to his, "I love you too." I whispered to Simon but I felt something between us. Something he wasn't sharing. It was plain on my face because Simon pulled away. When I didn't react to him moving his mood changed.
"What's wrong James?" Simon asked.
"Nothing." I said.
"James." He drew out the middle of my name pushing me to talk.
"It's just… I don't know. I just." I sighed loudly and turned away from him. The early morning sun was breaking through the window; it was the end of a twilight I wished I could go back to.
Simon edged his way back to me, "James, I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
I rolled my eyes, "What? What are you sorry for?"
"I don't know. I just…" Simon put his arms around me and put his head on my shoulder, "I'm sorry."
"You don't even know what you're sorry for." I pushed Simon away from me. His face showed his pain and I could see the tears behind his eyes. "That's it. That's always been the problem. You don't know what you're doing and when you apologize it's just empty."
"What do you want me to do, James? I'm trying here."
"I don't think you are."
"I agreed to this didn't I? I'm here in this hotel trying to start over aren't I? I am trying!"
"Don't fucking yell at me!" I got up from the bed and moved to the other side of the room. The fading blue light making it easier to see the room. To see what all this for what it really is.
Simon got up and moved slightly closer, "Don't curse James, it makes you seem lazy."
"It's not me being lazy! It's me showing how fucking mad I am at you. It shows how it seems like everything I do makes you ashamed to even be around me."
"Where did that come from?"
"Don't act like there aren't things you don't like about me, which is fine in a relationship. Except you're ashamed of them, of me. You don't like the way I dress. You would kill for me to be in dress pants and fuzzy sweaters like you."
"You don't like my clothes?"
"Yes, babe I like your clothes. It's not about that. It's about you being ashamed of me. You're supposed to like me for me. Not for what you can make me into." Simon sighed and I continued, "Admit it, you don't want this!" I threw my hands up and gestured to myself.
Simon walked over to me and tried to hold me, I pulled away. "James… okay. Yes, you're not my usual type. I don't think if someone described you to me without any names, I wouldn't want to be around them or even attracted to them. But I know you and knowing everything about you now I can make that exception to be with you. And I am trying James. I agreed to this 'do over'. I agreed to come to this hotel and pretend to never know you. To see if we could get that feeling back but now look at us. Back at the fighting. We were broken up but I didn't want to let you go. I...I don't know. Just, I am trying..."
"That's not romantic Simon! You're just saying you don't like anything about me… but that you're…." I trailed off for a minute. Trying to catch where I was going with my thoughts. "You're just attached to me. We're just used to each other." I turned back to Simon and he was crying. "Why are you crying?" I asked him in an annoyed tone.
"This is it, isn't it? You're going to break up with me" He let out a hard sigh and I saw the fight leave him.
I held my breath and pulled the moment out longer than it needed to go. "I don't know, Simon. I want this to work. I want to fix us."
Simon changed again. He wasn't crying now. Simon spoke with a clear voice and dry eyes, "We shouldn't have to work so hard. We shouldn't have to try."
"But that's the thing! You're not even putting in as much as I am. If you did… we wouldn't be here."
"That's not good, James. I think… for this to work we would just have to give up more than we should. I just don't think we should have to try so hard… I get that relationships need work but look at what it's doing to us. If this is our love then I don't think I want it."
It was me breaking this time. It was my tears beginning to fall and I didn't know how to stop them. I reached for Simon but he pulled away. We were breaking and not just dropped from the table I need super glue breaking. We were crashing into each other destroying everything breaking. Simon kept his distance from me and we both knew the end was coming but all I wanted was for him to take responsibility. All I wanted was for him to hold me again. To tell me that we can fix this and that he still loved me.
I broke the silence, "Simon… what are we going to do?"
"I just don't think we're going to work..."
"Just like that? After everything, after doing all of this? After coming here and trying to start over you just want to end it?"
"I thought our differences would be exciting in a relationship, I thought you were what I wanted but I don't know what else to do anymore, James." Simon put his head down in defeat and I walked closer to him. He didn't move this time.
Everything swelled up, all the time and effort I put into this boy. The love I gave. I let him into my world with no restraints while he made me stand at his doorway. I pushed my hands on Simon's chest in anger making him stumble back, "Then do it!" I pushed him again, "Break up with me! Be a man and just do it!" We were both crying.
Simon spoke softly, "I'm sorry James." I stared into his eyes once more, no longer melting but burning. This was the spark being lit. This was the burning that I wanted to start just a few days ago. Only at that time I thought we would rage on but our flame was flickering out. "We're over." Simon turned his face from me and started to look around for his things.
I sat down on the chair facing the window as Simon left the hotel room. The sun had broken its way through the clouds and was warming my face. I expected more tears but my eyes were drying.

Long Beach Mayor Bob Foster's proposal to fire Harbor Commission President Thomas Fields has created jitters in the shipping community and rattled fellow commissioners at a time when the port is going through growing pains.
Fields has been on a whirlwind overseas trade mission to lure more business to the Port of Long Beach, the second busiest port in the United States and an economic lifeline for Long Beach. He's been plane-jumping to locales such as Copenhagen and Hong Kong, knocking on the doors of potential tenants and current ones over the past two weeks, he said. He returned late Tuesday.
In an email sent Monday evening before his return flight to California, Fields expressed disappointment in Foster's decision.
"I am in Hong Kong about to board a plane back to Long Beach. For the last 11 days, we have been traveling around the world visiting our customers and partners at the port. We have talked to them about our shore power environmental program and working to bring more business to the Port of Long Beach," Fields wrote in the email sent to the Register.
"So it is disappointing to receive this news while I am out of town on port business. It is doubly disappointing because this trip has resulted in us getting a proposal from a major new potential customer for the port," he said. "This is an especially critical time for the port, and it is urgent we act to maintain our business and competitiveness."
In 2009, Foster appointed Fields to a six-year term on the five-member commission. He has lived in Long Beach since 1976 and previously served on the Planning Commission. He also works as a marketing and advertising executive.
Soon after, Foster began butting heads with Fields and other port officials, vetoing a proposed new port headquarters in 2010. More recently, the mayor has crossed swords with some commissioners over where the headquarters should be.
On Monday, Foster placed an item on next week's City Council agenda to dismiss Fields from the commission. The action would require a two-thirds vote of the council.
However, Foster provided no explanation regarding the move to fire Fields, and didn't return phone calls seeking comment Monday and Tuesday.
Industry reaction was one of surprise.
"The mayor's secrecy surrounding the removal of commissioner Fields has a Nixonian feel to it that is extremely troubling to the port's tenants and customers, especially at a time when the port has lost talented senior staff and is fighting to maintain market share," said John McLaurin, president of the Pacific Merchant Shipping Association, a San Francisco-based trade group that represents container terminals at the Port of Long Beach, as well as steamship agents and ocean carriers that either call directly at or move cargo through the port.
District 5 Councilwoman Gerrie Schipske said she also has heard from concerned businesses at the port, not just because of the most recent flare up with Fields, but also the lack of a permanent executive director to run port operations.
Companies with leases at the terminals are nervously calling her and other council members, Schipske said.
"They've even said to me and other council members that they are seriously considering moving business to the Port of Los Angeles," she said.
Fields' colleagues on the Harbor Commission also expressed concern Tuesday.
"This whole thing is of great concern to me on a lot of different levels," Commissioner Susan E. Anderson Wise said. "I'm very concerned about the port, the city and concerned about Mr. Fields."
"Everybody is speculating about the reasons, and we haven't heard about them. We need to have that explained," said Wise, who said she was initially notified of Foster's announcement by port staff on Monday. "I'm waiting to hear more information as to the mayor's basis."
"I'm flabbergasted," said Commissioner Nick Sramek, when reached by phone at his Aerospace Corp. office Tuesday. "It was a big surprise to me. I read it in the newspaper, and heard rumors of this, but never thought about it happening."
"We've also got to move forward with hiring a new executive director."
The port, which lost executive director Chris Lytle in May to the Port of Oakland, has become mired in discussions on job descriptions and how much to pay for Lytle's replacement.
Two other commissioners declined to comment.
"It's not an issue I want to comment on or should I. It's inappropriate," Commissioner Rich Dines said.
"I can't comment on this," Commissioner Doug Drummond said. "It's about a fellow commissioner, and I just don't want to comment on this."
Sramek's six-year term as commissioner officially ended at the end of June, but he has remained on the board and has been actively lobbying Foster for reappointment.
"I've told the mayor that I'd like to stay on," he said. "We've got enough issues going on without another one. There are major projects that are overrun, cost-wise, on the (Gerald Desmond) bridge replacement and Middle Harbor."
The port has plenty of capital projects on its plate, which is a real worry for Fields, who recently said that the port can't sustain its current capital spending projects program of $4.5 billion without upping its revenue collections.
He estimates the port is spending $2.5 million a day while it rakes in $1 million daily, but other port officials haven't cited those numbers.
Over the next decade, the Port of Long Beach and federal and state agencies will cough up $4.5 billion for a slew of projects. The port is replacing the Gerald Desmond Bridge and the Schuyler Heim Bridge; rolling out a new palm tree-lined road to replace the pothole-riddled Anaheim Street from the Los Angeles River to Ninth Street; and building a state-of-the-art Middle Harbor curbside dock so that supersized vessels can unload their cargo and navigate out of the port easier than backing in and out of tight-fitting berths.
The Gerald Desmond and Middle Harbor projects are over budget, and the port commissioners have come under fire by the shipping industry for placing an interim headquarters building near the Long Beach Airport instead of downtown, near the port.
The council is scheduled to discuss Foster's proposal at 5 p.m. Tuesday in City Hall, 333 W. Ocean Blvd.

If there was anything you wanted more in life, it was to meet your soulmate. As strange as it sounds, meeting your soulmate was a top priority in everyone's life, because you needed to meet them in order to see color. The world was just a drab mixture of blacks and greys before that. Your mother had explained it to you once when you were small, that color would wash over your vision slowly, dull and drab, but still there. It was only when you got to know them more that the colors would become brighter, streaks of red and blue and yellow lighting up the world in full HD.

They knew not whither;
But, at any rate, success or calamity
Would attend all in equality.
Stephen Crane
|The Chariot
Giorgio de Chirico
Fair Use
The charioteer climbed down
from his cab to contemplate his wheel,
stuck in a rut.
He carried a single passenger – the World –
who leant from his seat to offer wisdom:
"Those with their eyes fixed only
on a destination, fail to understand the journey."
But the driver spat in the gutter
and cursed his Fate.
"I was not born to stand still."
I drew a tarot card yesterday and today - The Chariot and The World - and, although both readings seemed exceedingly inept in my current circumstances, I could not resist a return to my Tales of Tarot.
