PARIS Contactless Payments
2 September 2016
Customers are becoming more familiar with contactless payments and expect these options to be available.
PARIS Contactless Payments provides a quick and efficient solution to capture and process card payments.
With local authorities operating many public-facing facilities, including leisure centres and registrars it's important to offer tried, tested and trusted payment options.
Contactless is a fast, easy and secure way to pay for purchases costing £30 and under without customer verification.
A high value contactless payment is any transaction that exceeds the contactless limit of £30. Higher value payments operate in a slightly different way to other contactless payments, and must include customer verification. This means that they can only be made using a device that supports a method of customer authentication, such as a smartphone. This authentication process takes place on the customer device and may be through the use of a passcode, or a form of biometric identifier such as a fingerprint.
PARIS is accredited* for contactless and high value contactless payments using contactless-ready Pin Entry Devices Verifone VX 820 (wired connection to NPS PARIS Receipting workstation) and Verifone VX 680 (wireless connection to NPS PARIS Receipting workstation).
Get in touch to find out more about PARIS Contactless Payments.
* Subject to ongoing bank accreditation programme.

Don't stop believing there will be a movie
David Chase asks Sopranos fans for a little sense of perspective.
Breaking his silence months after the HBO mob drama ended its run, he is offering a belated explanation for that blackout at the restaurant. He strongly suggests that, no, Tony Soprano didn't get whacked moments later as he munched onion rings with his family at Holsten's. And mostly Chase wonders why so many viewers got so worked up over the series' non-finish.
"There WAS a war going on that week, and attempted terror attacks in London," says Chase. "But these people were talking about onion rings."
As for the possibility Tony was "whacked" by the guy in the Members Only jacket,
Chase says the New Jersey mob boss "had been people's alter ego. They had gleefully watched him rob, kill, pillage, lie and cheat. They had cheered him on. And then, all of a sudden, they wanted to see him punished for all that. They wanted 'justice'…
"The pathetic thing — to me — was how much they wanted HIS blood, after cheering him on for eight years."
Well, Chase has to admit he did a lot in the final episodes to make Tony as unlikable as possible. Coppola left a little spark of humanity in Michael Corleone at the end of Godfather II. By the end of the Sopranos series, Tony Soprano was finally shown to be little more than a rapacious sociopath. No appetite was to be denied regardless of the cost to his soul. Even his psychiatrist (the audience's real stand-in, the series voyeur) finally quit in disgust as his enabler.
Can David Chase find the one last shred of humanity in Tony Soprano capable of sustaining our interest for a feature length film? Or are we to be given Godfather III?

Rush Limbaugh is a mean soul. That is if he has a soul. His long history of sexism and racism is not new to many but the fact that he has always managed to stay on the air and pollute the airwaves spewing so much garbage that is hateful and divisive has always taken many by surprise. But, after so many intentional revelations of what he really stands for, I am not sure that the latest onslaught on Rush would be a career-threatening matter considering past precedents. If anyone thinks that Rush Limbaugh is going to go down over the demeaning characterization of Sandra Fluke, I think it is being overly optimistic because America has many Rush Limbaugh's who have ears for bigots like them. In fact, President Obama's election to the Presidency has brought them out of their hiding like cockroaches.
The fact is the recent verbal assault by Rush Limbaugh on Sandra Fluke calling the Georgetown Law student "a slut" and a "prostitute" for standing for women's right before issuing his non-apology apology for it is just the cream of the crop about Rush's long history of sexist, racist, bigoted and assholish characteristics that has been acceptable in our public discourse for far too long. What is more surprising and offensive is the fact that businesses advertising on his show for far too long have been enabling and empowering him to promote bigotry, polarizing the integrity of public discourse to lowered standard we currently see in our media. However, the reaction from businesses as some 40 plus businesses flee from advertising on his show because they are so shocked all of a sudden to act in disbelieve of the same old same old tired ass hateful rhetoric from Rush Limbaugh, to me, is just fronting. Beside, it is not the first time these advertisers have left Rush's show.
I have to ask though, where has this new minted creed of responsibility in public discourse been from these sponsors when Rush was doing his damage by spewing and empowering racists and bigots saying a series of incendiary and crass statements that were sexists, racist and homophobic.
I guess saying things like "have you ever noticed how all composite pictures of wanted criminals resemble Jesse Jackson?" or "the NAACP should have riot rehearsal…they should get a liquor store and practice robberies." or "they're 12 percent of the population. who the hell cares?" referring to African Americans was quite alright and not consequential enough.
How about calling President Obama an "angry black guy", "halfrican American", an "affirmative action candidate" to disqualify his stature and playing a song on his radio show — 'Barack the Magic Negro' and then calling for a "segregated buses" because to Rush and company, "this is Obama's America" whose "entire economic program is reparations" to blacks. Yep, not consequential enough again.
As if that is not enough, his homophobic bigotry toward the LBGT community is just as bad but I guess that is just normal to businesses advertising on Rush Limbaugh's show as they embrace his racist and homophobic attacks on people who are just seeking the same kind of rights Rush himself has. He has made it to The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) annual list of the worst anti-LGBT voices, his long list of homophobic slurs are a mile long and well documented where he had called Rep. Barney Frank a "Banking Queen" in an effort to belittle him and had said Democrats will "bend over, grab the ankles, and say, 'have your way with me" to African American and gay voters. During the Mark Foley scandal, he said about Democrats, "in their hearts and minds and their crotches, they don't have any problem with what Foley did. They've defended it over the — over the years." Mocking openly gay people, he went on saying, "when a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult; it's an invitation"
These are the kinds of bigotry advertisers have been promoting. If you think what these 40 plus advertisers did is going to change the discourse in the behavior of Rush Limbaugh, you are a wishful thinker and I hate to burst your bubble because this is not the first time where advertisers had left Rush Limbaugh. With all the vile racist, sexist and homophobic crap that is said day in and day out on his show, there are many sponsors who put a blind eye as if undermining women, blacks and gays is not a problem. If one sponsor does not want to get too close to Rush's controversial hateful vacuum, there is another one that looks at Limbaugh and sees an opportunity to drawing attraction on the expenses of those that are demonized.
Here is the irony — there are a lot of people who listen to Limbaugh who get their daily hate fix and these same people are the ones who allow him to secure an eight-year, $400 million contract. In fact, some of the money he is earning is guaranteed regardless of what he says on the airwaves. Every time he creates controversy using sexist, racist and homophobic comments, his listeners love it but most of all he makes his sponsors happy because more listeners will tune in to listen to his garbage. This has always been about money and his sponsors don't give a shit if it is hurtful or not to others so long as it gives them publicity and as it has been said, there is no such things as bad publicity.
So, how can anyone stop this bigot because "we do not endorse the views expressed by Rush" as many sponsors have said while still pumping a lot of money to have this guy stay on the air ain't just good enough. Well, we will just have to wait and see how long the current wave of onslaught on Rush "the bigot" Limbaugh and his enabling sponsors will continue.
For some reason, I don't see much hope that we will see the end of Rush so long as the teabagging bigots cant live without their hate fix from him but I would love to be proven wrong.

Just Born: Rory McSharry - brothers so taken by their new playmate
Carolyn Smyth and Martin McSharry, from Dromara, have welcomed their third child into the world.
Rory McSharry was born at the Lagan Valley Hospital midwifery-led unit on April 2 at 3.22am.
He weighed 9lbs 13oz and measured 58cms.
Carolyn (30) and Martin (44) are now the proud parents of three boys.
Rory's older brothers George (4) and Jack (2) are thrilled to have a new playmate in the house.
"They are loving it," Carolyn said.
"I was a wee bit worried about Jack but they are being very gentle and giving him lots of hugs and kisses."
Carolyn said seeing her new son for the first time was a wonderful experience.
"It's an amazing feeling," she said.
"It doesn't lose the amazement factor. He's just brilliant. He's a cross between the other two boys. He has eyes like mine and a nose and mouth like his daddy."
The proud mum praised the team at Lagan Valley.
"They were totally brilliant," she said.
"They are very attentive and they make you feel in control, but you still have expert hands near by.
"There is a really nurturing vibe in the place."
Carolyn said she has been overwhelmed by the love and support from friends and family.
"Martin has been so supportive," she said.
"Everyone as been great."

FO3 controls, as you know, are a joke - partly due to a bad port, of course, but also because you need to hit the Walk button every time , uh, you want to walk. And even then it`s a set speed (atrocious btw). In a game like this, where exploration/sneaking is crucial it`s not acceptable anymore.
After spending a year with 360 - where you have a smooth transition from v.slow to fast I just can`t go back.
It`s different for competitive/twitch FPS games -no doubt. In these you must be able to do 180 in a split sec, impossible on a pad.
In third-person games I find it much more comfortable to operate camera by moving a thumb by a fraction of a millimetre than constantly shuffling mouse around. Just feels more intuitive/easier.

Sweetheart is normally my child without toddler sleep problems. I don't really remember the last time I dealt with toddler sleep problems with her! The only toddler sleep problems that she has ever had in the last 6 months has been when we couldn't find her baby binky or something. Or the toddler sleep problems of soiling her diaper in the middle of the night and waking up. And those toddler sleep problems are really no big deal when usually all I have to do for Sweetheart is hand her a baby binky and she goes right to sleep! I rarely hear a peep from her all night and I love it that way.
But last night we dealt with some major toddler sleep problems. And the worst part? I have no clue WHY we dealt with toddler sleep problems last night! The only explanation I can come up with deals with toddler gas. Sweetheart went to bed with a slight stuffy runny nose but that didn't seem to phase her really. But she kept on waking up and I think toddler gas was the culprit! Every time she would wake up and cry – I would hear toddler gas noises coming from her body. Since she was waking up so many times throughout the night and crying, I finally decided that I would get more sleep with Sweetheart sleeping in my bed. That was not a good decision either! Instead of getting even short periods of sleep last night, I had to deal with Sweetheart crying and kicking and screaming all night long with what I'm assuming was toddler gas problems. She was miserable and mad about being miserable. And that meant no one else was going to get any sleep either!
Last night was the longest night that I've had in a while thanks to the toddler sleep problems! I would fall asleep and then be woken up by Sweetheart. I would fall asleep and be woken up by Sweetheart. Repeat at least 100 times! It was almost a relief to realize that it was finally morning and my night of dealing with a tossing and turning and miserable child was over. Granted the lack of sleep for both of us means that we are going to have a grumpy toddler and grumpy mom on our hands which doesn't sound like a good combination at all! Better warn my husband to not expect too much today as a result of toddler sleep problems!

youtube website is aligned to the left ?
a strange one...
youtube the website, when opened in internet explorer, will NOT be centralised when dislayed...
all , infact EVERY website i open in explorer is centralised, when in maximum dislpay, and minimum.
but youtube is alway aligned to the left.
i have un-installed ie9, reinstalled, disk wiped, cache wiped, wiped browser cache, everything, even been in contact with youtube themselves, no joy.
i thought it had something to do with 'ZOOM' ... so i zoomed in, and out ... when zoomed to normal 100% it shifts over to the left, very bizzare !
i have included i 'snipping image to show'

My space: Anna Calvi, musician
I wrote my first album here three years ago, in the attic of my parents' house in southwest London. I was really secretive about it — I didn't want anyone to hear — and this felt like the safest place to sing. I wrote on my electric guitar, sitting on the floor, and recorded myself on my 8-track.
I used to go up there during the day when my parents were at work. When they were at home we had a very strong rule that they weren't allowed up. But if I shut the trapdoor I couldn't get out so I used to have to call them and ask them to let me out.
I'm looking to get my own studio now but if I'm…

According to the report, the strong blast took place in one of Tehran's suburbs as a military convoy left a Revolutionary Guards' ammunition storehouse. At least 15 people were killed in the explosion.
It was also reported that senior Revolutionary Guards officials banned the Iranian media from reporting the explosion, even though it was heard throughout the capital. The Guards launched an investigation into the incident.
An official source told the newspaper that the strong explosion was heard across Tehran, adding that the Revolutionary Guards were trying to silence the incident despite the fact that many people were killed.
Additional explosions and mysterious incidents which have taken place in Iran recently are being investigated by the Revolutionary Guards. In one of the incidents, a blast rocked a mosque in the city of Shiraz, where weapons were being displayed, killing 11 people.
Iranian Intelligence Minister Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei said following the incident that the main suspect in the affair was arrested.
"The terrorist group had ties with the US and Britain. These countries were informed of the arrest by the Foreign Ministry," he said, "but the countries did nothing to prevent these terror groups' activity."

Saturday saw heated exchanges at protests around the country with the Reclaim Australia group facing off against supporters of multiculturalism, as they rallied against the terrifying threat of what they call "fundamental Islam".
The #ReclaimAustralia movement hosted rallies in all capital cities on Saturday, with tens of thousands showing up Australia-wide – in support of the anti-halal, anti-sharia, anti-burka movement.
However, the largest Reclaim Australia rally was held in the last place most would have expected. On the wrong day.
Almost matching the numbers of all capital cities combined, the Diamantina Shire in far-west Queensland, hosted up to 10,000 concerned residents in the streets of one of their busiest towns yesterday morning.
"This isn't about us and them!"
Shouted local politician and notorious anti-Halal protester, Councillor Keith Carton.
The newly-elected mayor was received well by the roaring ten thousand strong crowd, decked out in Eureka Stockade-themed Australiana.
"These BASTARDS have been trying to change our culture ever since they f**king landed here!"
The Betoota mayor claims that the fact his town had accidentally hosted their rally on the wrong day was irrelevant to the cause.
"These big city folk are worried about what the immigrants WILL do. We are worried have what they have ALREADY done"
"They have been here since the early days. Since the 1800's our camel trade has been dominated by the spongeing Afghan cameleers! My grandaddy always told me this would be a problem and he was right!
The local store in Betoota has been 100% Halal certified ever since it was taken over by new "Muslim" ownership in 1912. Anti-Muslim sentiment was furthered when the town was pressured into building a mosque ten years later, to cater for the six Muslim families in town.
"They have been trying to change our culture for nearly 200 years! Enough is enough!"
Outback Australia has been a focal point for the anti-Muslim agenda for quite some town now. With Mosque attacks happening all over the Northern Territory and far-west Queensland.
However, local authorities have reportedly pulled back on combating the deeply engrained discrimination of Muslim citizens, after local politicians told them to "give it a rest"
"These bloody mussies (Muslims) have even had one of our most iconic trains named after them. If that isn't a sign of the Muslim agenda… I don't know what is"
"They've been here since the early 1800's and we've been telling them to go home ever since!"

It's the weekend at last - I hope you all have some great plans! In the UK we've been having some great (i.e. sunny) weather at the weekends for about four weeks in a row now, with the rain continuing during the weekdays... it never happens like that normally! It certainly makes outfit photographing a LOT easier.
Although I don't expect this milder weather to last much longer, I was able to wear just my summer [holiday] boyfriend shirt and a maxi the day these were taken. And thank you, ASOS, for reducing the polka dot maxi I'd had my eye on for so long - I do love an ASOS bargain. Or three, or four ;)

Valve combats Steam Tag trolls with report functionality
Last week, Valve introduced Steam Tags, a new feature that provides a "powerful new way to shop for games." Basically, it allows Steam community to define games based on tags like "shooter", "FPS," "casual," etc. Tags that are applies frequently will become "featured categories," helping people find a new set of genres, themes, and attributes.
It's a system designed for easy browsing, but -- because this is the internet -- plagued by trolls. As you would expect, games have been labeled with silly or ridiculous tags -- like Dark Souls: Prepare to Die being labeled "casual."
So to combat this, Valve has added a feature that allows you to report labels for being "offensive/abusive", "not appropriate for this product", "not a helpful tag" or a spoiler. Additionally, swear words have now been fully filtered out.
Has the new Tag system helped simplify game browsing for you?

I am writing to confirm our conversation last week and tho thank you for your assistance.
During our telephone conference, you answered my question regarding the size of transaction test. Our

that this transaction does not satisfy Section 7(A)(a)(3)(b).

Re: Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance - Rate & Review Thread
I was pretty critical of the movie when I posted my thoughts about it after watching the movie. My initial reaction was that it sucked really bad, however after watching the dvd I didnt think it was near as bad as I thought. There was some stuff to the story I missed in the theatre that became more clear when watching the dvd and although it felt like GR was barely in the movie in the theatre, when I timed it out on second viewing, he actually was in it a decent amount.
Could be kinda like when you hear a song and think it sucks but when you listen a few more times you end up liking it.
I think that the animated/comic cut scenes gave it a cheap B-movie feel and that the penance stare not being a visual effect we could see were two big mistakes that if fixed would have made the movie better recieved by general public and fan alike.
I still think the first movie was far better but this movie wasnt as bad as I thought at first.

God of War Midnight Launch Events Held at GameStop
Do You Attend Midnight Video Game Launches?
As expected, GameStop will be hosting a midnight launch for God of War 3 so gaming geeks all over the country can be one of the first to dive into the epic action-adventure title. Although my preferred method of getting a game I really want is to sit back and order it on Amazon (hoping for a release-day arrival), this release party may be worth crashing for the costume contest alone. Geeks huddled around a game store in the middle of the night, dressed as Kratos? Scary, but it's kind of a can't miss.

Like most reviewers here I agree that Crown Parking are rude, money grabbers. We booked online but needed to cancel the day after. We tried phoning them as we wanted to cancel with a human being to make sure got our money back, but they are such a tinpot bunch that they didn't answer the phone in 7 days of trying. Eventually I left a message for them and they called me back. They said that they had phone problems which is why they weren't picking up.

I have used Crown Parking in 2006 and 2007 for two trips and they have performed faultlessly.

Unfortunately, the Stansted Crown airport parking website does not allow you to check the price of the booking before they take the payment, which had increased by the time the payment was processed.
Secondly, as our flight was diverted to Gatwick and we needed to change our collection times, I called to advise them, and was offered a slot to pick up the car the next day which I took.

I'm running IC 6.1.6-64b.500.1
In all previous versions, when you plot multiple waveforms in VIVA you can select the curve on the left side and use the arrow keys to scroll through however many waveforms you have. The selected waveform will be hilighted. In 6.16 it's not working and I would like to know how to set it back. Thanks in advance.
This appears to be a bug. I filed CCR 1201410 for this - but I suggest you report it to Cadence Customer Support if you want to track it yourself.

Debates among Scotland's elite politicians is akin to a psychotic ventriloquist who has forgotten his dummy and is shouting at himself.
The women took centre stage this week. The top brass were out on parade and all over the TV. All performing for the cameras, starting cat fights, going crazy at each other, both sending the other up the pole, tearing strips off each other and leaving us all aghast.
We were wondering if we'd accidentally tuned into Strippers on Channel 4 but it was an hour-long Scotland Tonight Referendum Special debate between Nicola Sturgeon and Johan Lamont.
Loading article content
First up though, on Monday, Newsnight Scotland had Fiona Hyslop and Baroness Goldie of Bishopton. Quite polite, posh and pedestrian.
Newsnight Scotland adopted an approach of part job interview/part dramatically lit firing squad. Their format allowed for engaged debate, the content wasn't there. We were just in thirty seconds when I shouted 'house!!!' on my political cliché bingo card. Up a fiver with two 'going forwards' and one 'if you allow me to finish'.
There was another unusual occurrence from the week's news cycle. With the modern age, ten minutes is a long time in politics. Between 24-hour rolling news, websites, bloggers and Twitter the agenda can move very quickly. It's highly unusual for a story in politics to reach a second week but Cameron's fixation with the Thin White Duke has carried on unabashed. On Monday he told the press and I quote; 'I was watching the Brit Awards and when I saw Kate Moss leap to the stage and utter those words I have to say I did let out a little cry of joy.'
It just sounds creepy to me. I also think it's most likely a lie. He would've been watching himself all night in the news no doubt dressed like some CBBC's presenter in a factory with goggles or in some outrageous array of Bob the Builder-esque gear. He was probably watching himself on the news giving out big cries of joy at his own image in yet another garishly yellow orange helmet.
If we can, just briefly, let's think about this. Cameron, your PM was watching The Brits? Why? At his age? That isn't right.
Anyway, it was interesting to see Annabel Goldie show up on TV in full support of the new special relationship between the Double Daves, Bowie and Cameron. Goldie Locks had the full feathered Ziggy Stardust hair. What next? Osborne, and Cameron with bleached blonde Lets Dance 1980s side shed looks? Suffice to say Hyslop missed a chance to fire in a gag about the (Bad) Barnet Formula.
Which brings us to the main event. STV's Scotland Tonight, which started out well but quickly dissolved into a bear pit. The comedy guy in my head, exiled somewhere behind the comedy trombone and the little funny monkey who plays the drum and cymbals was saying, this is hilarious, chaos, political carnage. This is what we need.
It was like the Gong Show on speed. Sturgeon at one point looked like she was about to climb over the lectern and have a go. The sensible guy in my head was left feeling devoid of narrative, looking for answers and explanations. As the questions turned to angry accusations they clearly both fell into the trap of thinking the skill is to just not answer the question. It was more Rambo than Rimbaud.
There are a few adages about people doing their job well. They say, for example, that you never really notice a great drummer. When a referee is doing their job well you should never really see him. The moderator was weaker than milky tea. We were left with three women just shouting. Great for comedy but sad for politics.
The debate at least promised a bit more heat. But then again, debating isn't about bullying, roaring at each other, not answering a question, shouting over the top of each other and just making the other person look stupid. That's called marriage. I'm gloriously happy of course, so I'm told.
STV got all technical, using word clouds to show the amount of times key words were mentioned…the bolder and bigger the word the more it was used.
Somewhere hidden in small writing at the edge of the word cloud among the square-go rhetoric there was the odd mention of currency, independence, and Trident. I have to say I was speechless, left mesmerised at how such a high profile debate was allowed to descend into farce. It gave loads of entertainment but very little in the way of answers.
The Cabinet scarpered quickly to Scotland…no doubt on the back of hearing a North Sea oil shake up could yield £200 billion. Big Jean the cleaner emailed me a discarded bit of paper from the meeting. 'Northern Lights renamed, made less Scottish sounding. North Sea Oil needs mythical 'special ingredient' like Irn Bru for rUKOil rebrand.'
More than 56,000 copies of the white paper - the blueprint for independence - have been ordered online across 40 countries in two months. Honestly I'd be delighted if Nirvana: A Tour Diary or Sandy Trout: A Memoir moved that amount of books in two months.

COLUMBUS, Miss. – (WCBI) A controversial Facebook comment that led to the resignation of one Columbus firefighter and disciplinary action against two others, and an officer has been leaked.
12-year department veteran Brad Alexander stepped down last Tuesday after word of his Facebook post filtered through the community.
According to city officials, this graphic post stemmed from a fire department call concerning a two year old struck by a car.
" People never cease to amaze me. Mama yelling oh my baybee my baybee…Hey you stupid a**, where was babyees mama at while your 2 year old was getting hit by a truck. Mama needs to have her guts cut so there won't be anymore babies. Freeloading ignorant woman."
Shortly after Alexander resigned, he did post this apology to Facebook.
"Hello all, I made a very poor decision on making a comment here the other day. Please let me apologize for my disrespect and stupidity. To all my co-workers who this reflected on, I am deeply sorry."
Firefighters Derek Estes and Eric Minga, as well as Officer Lance Luckey were all suspended for 30 calendar days.
Luckey is appealing his suspension.
The two firemen are not appealing and have sent apology letters to the city.
The three received the punishment after "liking" the original Facebook post.

In 1993, sixteen bodies were found entombed within the Malestrazza Building, a mysterious apartment complex built by one of the world's most renowned, yet eccentric, architects. The killer was never caught. Fifteen years later, newly graduated structural engineer Sam Walczak (Mischa Barton of The O.C.) arrives to prepare the site for demolition. But this massive concrete crypt is not entirely empty: Its halls are lined with secrets. Its rooms are filled with fear. And behind its walls, the ultimate horror has lay waiting....until now.

Well, Maureen, I guess this is a lesson for all of us---we need to go back periodically and check our old puzzles! We never know what nice things others have said about the puzzle, or us, that we have missed. Thanks, Friend................
Very pretty indeed. Thanks
Thank you aanjax,I do tend to follow people whose puzzlesI enjoy,even if they are older.I'm not fast enough,for my name to appear onthe leader boards.Love Jigidi!
Very pretty, indeed. I like the bag decorated with the ribbon for the presentation. I assume the flowers are in another container inside the bag. But it's another way to recyle those gift bags.
Hello Maureen. This IS a beautiful bouquet. Thanks for sharing it. I just left comments for you (Before I knew your name, LOL) on the two puzzles of mine that you commented on. Sorry I have just found them. They are older & I just happened upon them...........
Thank you for commenting.Most encourageing!
Very pretty. Thank you, amakrokis. :)
Love purple pink and green together. A beautiful bouquet.

I had waited for ages to try this cuticle pen from Nails Inc. I knew I wanted it but refused to pay the huge price I had seen it for sale online and on the shopping channel that sells Nails Inc.
My find
I found a set in T K Maxx that included the cuticle oil pen and it was reduced so it went in the basket faster than you can imagine!
The avocado cuticle oil pen is all sliver with a lid that clicks on and it is great to transport without fear of leaks. To use it took me a while to peel off the plastic wrapper but then I had to twist the end (which clicks up the product) for ages before any product appeared on the white brush.
In use
You just stroke the white brush on your cuticles then massage in the oil. It could not be easier really.
This pen is £14 on the Feel Unique website, I think that is a bit expensive for 1.6 ml of product!
My thoughts
I love having this in my drawer by the bed and I use it nightly but I will probably not replace it due to the price. No complaints about the performance though and I do love the packaging, I just think it is far too expensive for what it is.
Final word
I highly recommend this product, it smells lovely and I am so pleased I found it in a reduced set in TK Maxx.
I received this as a gift for Christmas from my mum. I think she was trying to encourage me to stop biting my nails, which is a bit of a nervous habit of mine. I was really pleased though because when I take care of my nails I do tend to stop them biting them.
I started to use this oil pen every night before bed, you can use it more often than that, but I don't tend to have time during the day.
The cuticle oil is in a pen and you twist the bottom to release the product. You only need to twist it a little bit as a little of this oil goes a very long way. I use mine releasing some oil from the pen and just using the brush that is attached to paint around my cuticles. When I've done that I rub it into the cuticles and then apply my hand cream.
In the pen the oil is blue, but when you apply it, it comes out completely clear. It doesn't really have a smell and is very easy to use, as long as you don't use too much, then it's a nightmare to get rid of.
I used this for about 4 weeks before I saw an improvement. I do think it helped my nails to grow a lot quicker than normal, and they were certainly stronger and didn't break as easily. I continued to use this for about 5 weeks before it ran out. By that time my nails were in a better condition than I had seen them in for a long time. I don't think it was solely down to the oil pen, but I do think it did contribute a lot.
I have continued to use this product a lot. I don't always use it everyday, but I do try to use it as much as I can. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and to anyone having trouble growing their nails.
I am not a fan of Nails Inc- you'll know that from my review of their polishes. However, this product is just brilliant! I bought this because my Essie cuticle oil ran out and I could not locate it anywhere in London so just bought this. The first thing that I really took a liking to was the packaging- most cuticle oils are either in tiny bottles or in actual nail polish bottles but this is a pen- very convenient to take with you everywhere and does not drip either! Also, in terms of health for your nails being able to take it everywhere is a real plus because when you use cuticle oils you should keep applying it through the day especially if you have dry nails so this is perfect for use on the tube/ bus. Product wise, I did not notice a particularly foul smell and the product itself works! Within 2 weeks on constant application, my cuticles were much softer and with no ragged edges! Applying constantly also gives the illusion of healthy nails which is always a plus! From me, this product gets 5 stars because it does everything it is supposed to and I wouldn't hesitate to recomment this.
After many a year biting my nails, last year I decided to stop, go cold turkey and just stop. I've been successful so far but my nails are still suffering the consequences of a 20 year habit.
One particular problem is I have incredibly dry and peeling cuticles coupled with dry, flaky nails. I went for a shape and paint at my local Nails Inc. nail bar as I was recommended to use Nails. Inc Avocado Cuticle Oil Pen but at £10 for a small pen tube, it was out of my remit at the time, but I swore to buy it when I could afford it.
I never forgot that this was the recommended product to try to get my nails in shape and I used to look at it in Boots, where it was also on sale. Recently, Boots had a clearance on Nails Inc products and beneath the bargain bin full of garish nail varnishes, I found my Avocado Cuticle Oil Pen for a fantastic £2. It was missing it's box, however, but this was no real loss to me and I ran, like a movie scene, to the till, so I could get my grubby little mitts on this as soon as possible.
I would say there is about 5ml of product in the pen. The pen is clear, with a click screw end, which dispenses the oil through a soft bristle brush. There is the need for quite a few turns of the screw end in order to dispense the oil down into the brush, which was a little frustrating.
The oil itself is a light green colour and appears quite thin in consistency within the pen.
When I had visited the Nails Inc bar, I was told how that particular manicurist applied this and found it effective. The technique she advised me to use was to dot the oil on to my cuticles and side of the nail, then to apply a streak to the middle of my nail, then to massage the oil in to the cuticle, the surrounding nail bed and the nail itself. I have adopted this technique when I use the pen.
The oil pen is fairly easy to use, when you have primed the brush with oil. The oil comes from the brush, on to the nail, cuticle and nail bed very easily and the brush is nice and soft, so it doesn't drag across your cuticles or nails. There is no scent to the oil.
After applying the oil to one hand, I massaged the oil in. The oil is, unsuprisingly, oily but it is not so full of grease that you might expect. The oil sinks in so quickly and doesn't leave any residue whatsoever. My nails were left with a pleasant sheen, however this didn't last for any length of time and as soon as the oil was absorbed, the sheen disappeared. Contrary to what my work colleagues imagined, the oil did not dye my nails of skin green.
Nails Inc recommend you use this as much as you can but you should particularly use this before bedtime. I have been using mine twice a day, morning and night for a month now.
Within the first week, I did notice a marked difference in the condition of my cuticles. They were not as dry as they had been for a few months and there was not so much skin splitting around the edge of the nail as I normally had. Within this week, I didn't notice much difference in my nail condition.
After a fortnight, the improvement in my nails were fairly good, out of 10 nails, 6 were not peeling as per usual and the other 4 had much less peeling around the tip. Cuticle wise, there was little difference from week one but the skin looked less red and inflamed, but whether this was due to me not picking at my cuticles or the oil, I'm unsure, it may well have been a combination of both.
The three week point showed the best difference, my cuticles were stronger and I had a very minimal amount of peeling or splitting. My nails also ceased to peel completely and they had a much nicer look to them, much healthier and a nicer colour to them as well.
I've now hit the month use point. I have to say, my cuticles continue to be in great shape but the last week has seen two small splits in the skin occur, but that is all. Nail wise, they have improved no end, I can really notice that my nails are much healthier and they no longer peel at the tips. They just look much nicer than they did a month ago.
In the month I have been using the pen, I have used very little of the oil, even with daily use, which I believe, reflects somewhat it's normally inflated price tag. I would still be somewhat reluctant to pay £10 for this, though, and I probably would look to see if I could get it on eBay or similar, prior to going to a Nails Inc bar, where, inevitably, you are sold every product under the sun.
I would recommend this pen, it seems ideal for problem cuticles and for improving the condition of your nails. Some people may want more of a moisturising effect from a cuticle cream and I have to admit, this treats the cuticle problem, it doesn't moisturise in a way to prevent splits from occurring, nor will it overly moisturise your cuticle area.
It might be expensive but it appears to offer great value and even greater at £2!

LOS ANGELES — Jeff Lewis isn't quite like his reality TV peers.
The obsessive-compulsive star of "Flipping Out" is something of a black sheep among the Bravolebrities. He's not as fabulous as "The Real Housewives" nor as chic as the fashionistas of "The Rachel Zoe Project," and his palate is less refined than any "Top Chef." (He feasts on McNuggets in Tuesday's fourth season premiere.)
While most cogs in Bravo's reality TV drama factory uniformly pop up on gossip blogs and in the pages of tabloid magazines between dispatches about Jennifer Aniston and the Kardashians, the sharp-tongued real estate investor and designer has rarely received such attention since adding reality star to his resume four years ago.
"I don't want it," he says. "There are red carpet events I could go to every single night. I don't have that kind of time. I stay really focused. The goal of this whole thing for me, of course, is another stream of income, but you know what? I'm also building a business. I have to make money. I'm not just some wealthy socialite."
As the show's neat-freak leading man, Lewis has become infamous for his monstrous meltdowns and sarcastic jabs, usually directed at goofy right-hand woman, Jenni Pulos. He seems self-aware, however, and probably isn't the totally delusional nut job that last season's average of 1.27 million viewers came to love and/or loathe.
"Don't tell anybody this because it will ruin my reputation, but every Sunday I'm down visiting my grandmother," he says during a recent interview over breakfast at a Hollywood coffee shop. "I take care of her. I remodel her house. I bought her a car. I go down there and take out her trash and make sure she has groceries."
Starring in "Flipping Out" has seemingly helped just as much as it's hurt the manic 40-year-old Lewis, who once requested that Pulos bring him a drink ideally composed of "70 percent lemonade, 20 percent fruit punch and 10 percent Sprite." Lewis and Pulos acknowledge he's learned about himself from studying his conduct on TV.
"I think he looked at himself and said, 'I don't like a lot of my behavior. I don't like how I go to blind rage. I don't like certain things I do,'" she says. "For him, it was therapy edited into — what's it now? — 30 hours total of his life. I know, for myself, it's been odd when you see your own life edited into this package."
For Lewis, being the subject of a reality TV show has come with costs. His relationship with Ryan Brown, Lewis' ex-boyfriend and business partner, ended last year after he accused him of siphoning clients online. Lewis also reveals a four-year relationship he kept off-camera during the first two seasons ended because of the show.
"I think he was really embarrassed that I did the show," he says. "I think the day it got bought, the relationship changed and went downhill. I think, especially after season one when it got a lot of criticism and not everybody understood me, I think he was really embarrassed. It wasn't what he originally signed up for."
Since last season, which largely focused on Lewis rebuilding his business after the real estate bubble popped in his face, he's parlayed his fame into a booming business. The increased workload means more responsibilities for housekeeper Zoila Chavez, house assistant Jett Pink and design associates Sara Berkman and Trace Lenhoff.
"Last season, I was stressed out because we had no business," Lewis says. "This season, it's the complete opposite. Once we figured out the website, people were able to find me, and the business grew. The problem became handling the onslaught of business because I didn't want to turn anybody down. In turn, I took on too much."
Lewis, who launched a line of QVC home accessories earlier this year, says viewers can expect more flare-ups in the fourth season but no life-altering dramas such as Pulos' divorce or the break with Brown. As far as another chapter goes, Lewis says he's committed to a fifth season but not sure how long he can keep "Flipping Out."
"I don't know about after that," he says. "It takes a lot out of me. It really does. I personally feel like I'm getting healthy, and I feel like as I get healthier, it's not that I'm less interesting, but I just don't know if they would be interested in me. When I was borderline insane, I think it was a pretty good bet."
Jeff Lewis not 'Flipping Out' as much

Cultivate Your Ensemble Playing Skills
In addition to applied individual instruction, one of the Department's degree requirements is participation in ensemble playing. Ensemble playing allows students to engage in the actual 'performance prep' required for real life musicianship. In contrast to classroom instruction, an onstage performance in front of a live audience is not simulation. It is, in fact, the actual life-world conditions through which the student's accumulative instruction is ontically applied and tested in real time.
Ensemble Performance as a Teaching Tool
The Department of Music places great emphasis upon ensemble playing. From a practical standpoint and for most professional musicians, the ensemble often becomes the nucleus of one's career. Described as a teaching tool for integrated performance techniques, just as it is with other forms of artistic production, ensemble playing as an activity acts as its own teacher by forcing the artist into an intimate commitment to the work at hand.

Prospective analysis of technological innovation systems: Identifying technological and organizational development options for biogas in Switzerland
In this article, we put forward a concept for the identification and analysis of future development options of technological innovation systems. The key element of our approach, the so-called variation analysis, is a methodology to identify coherent socio-technical and organizational variants within a specific innovation field. Consistent combinations of these two dimensions may be interpreted as nuclei for alternative future developments of innovation systems. The method may be used in discursive foresight processes to inform strategy formulation of firms or policy makers who see a utility in furthering the innovation field. The paper has a focus on developing the theoretical background and the analytical structure of the methodology. Empirically, we illustrate the method for the innovation system of biomass digestion in Switzerland.

RELIGIOUS fanatics with a huge arsenal of weapons have barricaded themselves inside a compound, vowing to shoot themselves rather than surrender.
The 16 people, including seven children, are surrounded by police at the 47-acre site in Trinidad, Texas - 70 miles from the Waco siege site, where more than 80 people died. Their leader is John Joe Gray, 51, self-appointed leader of the Embassy of Heaven Church, a militant sect that rejects all forms of government control.
They have been barricaded in since spring after Gray failed to appear in court for assaulting a state trooper. Gray, a volatile man with a liking for guns, has warned that anyone trying to enter should "bring lots of body bags". There are sandbagged trenches and a sign outside says: "No trespassing - survivors will be prosecuted."
Telephones and electricity have been cut but the farm is self-sufficient and can survive indefinitely. Sheriff Howard Alfred has not tried to serve the arrest warrant. A deputy said: "We are going to try to resolve this peacefully. The last thing we want is for someone to get hurt."
The FBI is monitoring the case.

Legal Question in Consumer Law in California
I recently test drove a motorcycle (2001 Triumph Sprint ST 955). Before the test drive, I filled out a form assuming responsibility for damage to the bike while in my ownership among other things. When returning to the dealership after a 5 minute ride around the block, the bike stalled while turning, it came to a stop and it was pretty gingerly laid down as I couldn't keep the 500 lbs. bike upright. There was minor damage to the cockpit fairing and a little damage to the mirror. When the employees assessed the damage initially, they jokingly insinuated that I buy the motorcycle. I went along my merry way test driving a few more bikes at other establishments, ultimately deciding not to purchase a bike at this time. Later that weekend, I got a call from the dealership wanting to settle the bill (don't they have insurance?). I sent a claim to my insurance company, but found out it wasn't covered. While that was being attempted, I got the repair estimate. The bike was going for $2999, the repair bill was $1450 for all new parts. They kindly informed me that they were going to assume the cost of rewelding the bent foot brake pedal because it was already busted up prior to my disastrous test drive. I'm sure that was the least expensive one of the repairs. During every conversation I had with the dealership, I was encouraged to buy the motorcycle because "parts are very expensive for this make of bike" (like that's a selling point?). I am willing to accept responsibility and pay for some of the damages, but to buy all new parts for a 12 year old bike that already showed signs of it's age long before my arrival on the scene, seems too much. They are also pressuring me to settle this quickly, telling me that I may be assessed further fees because they're having to hold the bike while this gets settled. Another point that lends me to believe that I shouldn't have to assume all responsibility (regardless of what I signed) is because while small talking and filling out the paperwork for the test drive, I mentioned several times that I was a new rider. While I was out on the ride, my wife was asking questions about the motorcycle and asked if it was a good bike for beginners to which the salesman properly replied "No. It's a 955cc. Definitely not a beginner bike". I normally wouldn't even bring this to light, as I am not the litigious type, but almost 50% the cost of the bike for repairs and you're trying to bully me into paying in a week? C'mon man! Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
1 Answer from Attorneys
lets see, you signed a form assuming all responsibility for damage. You dump the bike, you damage the Ike, and now you don't want to pay. You admit that you are a novice rider which means you know little about the bike. This makes your assessment of a gingerly laid down bike seem extremely suspect.... It is a Triumph Bike so it make be expensive to fix.... You emphasize that are a new rider and somehow that's their fault. This compounds your negligence as you should have asked the simple questions about the bike and your ability to handle a high performance bike. You test ride it without insurance.
They are entitled to a bike that works as good a it did prior to your accident... If it takes that amount of money to make the whole you need to probably make them whole.
Sorry but I'm sure you won't like this...
