Author's Note for Waking Up with a Rake
There's always a "story behind the story." Sometimes, I tuck it into a set of author's notes at the end of the book in case readers wonder what the true history that inspired my tales may be. Here are the facts that helped shape Waking Up with a Rake:
In November of 1817, Princess Charlotte died after giving birth to a stillborn boy. She was the sole legitimate grandchild of King George III, the only daughter of the Prince Regent and his estranged wife. It didn't take a leap of genius for the younger unmarried sons of King George to realize that they had an opportunity to beget a future monarch. And so the "Hymen Race Terrific," as the London tabloids called it, began.
Three royal dukes were in contention— the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Kent, and the Duke of Clarence, who features in Waking Up with a Rake. Clarence sired ten illegitimate children upon an actress with whom he lived for twenty years. He was perpetually in debt and actually had tried to woo a great heiress earlier in his life, but the match was forbidden by an Act of Parliament because the lady was a commoner. It made me think it was no great stretch for me to have him pursue Miss Olivia Symon, my commoner heroine.
In July 1818, the Duke of Clarence married Princess Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen, a woman half his age. Clarence set aside his mistress, and his new wife welcomed his nine surviving children into their home. By all reports, the marriage was a happy one, and since his frugal German wife took his finances in hand, Clarence's debts began to shrink.
In June 1830, at the age of sixty- four, the Duke of Clarence ascended to the British throne to become King William IV. But he and his queen were never blessed with children of their own, so though he eventually wore the crown, the Duke of Clarence did not win the "Hymen Race Terrific."
That is a tale for another duke…

This application is the US national phase of international application PCT/EP02/06339, filed in English on 10 Jun. 2002, which designated the U.S. PCT/EP02/06339 claims priority to DE Application No. 101 28 901.4 filed 15 Jun. 2001. The entire contents of these applications are incorporated herein by reference.
The invention relates to a method of entering information into an optically writable and readable data storage medium, and also to the use of a data storage medium in conjunction with such a method.
DE 298 16 802 U1 discloses an optically writable and readable data storage medium which has a polymer film whose refractive index can be changed locally by heating. If the polymer film is heated locally with the aid of a write beam, the change in the refractive index results in a change in the reflecting power (reflectivity) at the point considered. This can be used for storing information. In order to read out the information, a read beam is used, which is reflected more intensely at points with increased reflectivity, which may be measured in order to acquire the information. The polymer film, which, for example, consists of polypropylene, can be prestressed (stretched) in both surface directions during production, as a result of which a high amount of inherent energy is stored in the material. In the event of local heating by the write beam, in such a configuration of the polymer film, a sharp material change (compaction) takes place as a result of reformation, the refractive index changing in the desired way. In the case of the previously known data storage medium, the polymer film can be assigned an absorber dye which preferentially absorbs the write beam and gives up the heat produced in the process locally to the polymer film. With the aid of an absorber dye, a sufficiently high change in the refractive index (for example a change of about 0.2) can be achieved even with a relatively low intensity of the write beam.
In the previously known data storage medium, the polymer film is wound spirally in a plurality of plies onto a core, there being an adhesion layer between adjacent plies in each case. By focusing the write beam or read beam, the information may be written specifically into a preselected polymer film ply or read out from it.
A main problem with such spirally wound multi-ply data storage media is the low transmission after a plurality of plies, which is caused by the absorber dye. In the case of a preferred optical density between 0.30 and 0.35 per ply, after 15 plies an optical density of 5 is reached, which corresponds to a transmission of only 0.001%. The optical density D is a variable which is well suited to characterizing the absorption behavior; it is true that D=log(1/T), where T=I/I0 is the transmission if the intensity of the incident radiation falls from I0 to I. At higher optical densities per ply, a transmission value of 0.001% is already reached at a lower number of transilluminated plies. This makes writing data into plies lying at a deeper level virtually impossible, since all of the energy of the write beam, which is needed to change the optical properties of the polymer film, is already absorbed in the plies lying higher up and transilluminated first. Reading data with the aid of the read beam is affected even more detrimentally, since reading out the information is carried out in reflection, so that the read beam has to trace a path within the data storage medium which is twice as long as that traced by the write beam during the writing operation.
In DE 100 28 113, it is proposed to introduce the absorber dye in oriented fashion in the previously known data storage medium. By changing the polarization of a laser used to generate the write beam and the read beam during writing and reading, it is then possible for the laser beam to be absorbed during writing but not during reading. However, this measure only simplifies the reading operation, while the writing operation in plies lying at a deeper level is still hindered by the high optical density.
It is an object of the invention to provide a possible way to achieve acceptable transmission properties in an optically writable and readable data storage medium with an absorber dye, so that, in particular in the case of a spirally wound multi-ply data storage medium of the aforementioned type, as far as possible neither the writing operation nor the reading operation in the layers lying at a deeper level is hindered.
This object is achieved by a method of entering information into an optically writable and readable data storage medium as claimed in claim 1 and the use of such a data storage medium as claimed in claim 18. Advantageous refinements of the invention emerge from the subclaims.
The method according to the invention is used for entering information into an optically writable and readable data storage medium having a polymer film which can be changed locally by heating in order to store information. The polymer film is assigned an absorber dye which is set up to absorb a write beam, at least partly, and to give up the heat produced in the process, at least partly, locally to the polymer film. A data storage medium of this type as such is known, for example from DE 298 16 802 U1, DE 100 28 113 or DE 199 35 776 A1. In the method, the absorber dye is heated locally in accordance with the information to be entered by means of a pulsed write beam in a predetermined region of the polymer film. According to the invention, the absorption properties of the absorber dye are changed by means of light.
As a result of changing the absorption properties of the absorber dye, the write beam and/or a read beam used to read out information during a subsequent writing or reading operation are no longer seriously hindered by the absorber dye. The method according to the invention is therefore suitable in particular for data storage media in which the polymer film is arranged in multiple plies, the write beam being focused onto a preselected polymer film ply or the associated absorber dye when entering information. If such a data storage medium is, for example, written from outside to inside and the absorption properties of the absorber dye are correspondingly changed from outside to inside, the data storage medium has an adequately high transmission for all the following writing and reading operations.
It is preferable if, following the action of the pulsed write beam, the absorption properties of the absorber dye are changed in the predetermined region of the polymer film by means of a fixing beam. Preferred absorber dyes can be bleached (see below) and can therefore be bleached with the aid of the fixing beam, so that they do not hinder the transmission of the write beam or a read beam. A focused laser beam in the continuous wave mode may be used as a fixing beam.
Thus, for example, in an advantageous refinement of the method, a pulsed write beam focused onto a diameter of 0.5 μm, for example, is used. The write beam heats the absorber dye in a predetermined region of the polymer film used for information storage (for example in a preselected track in a preselected polymer film ply of a multi-ply data storage medium). The absorber dye, which, for example, is contained in the polymer film but can also be arranged in a separate layer on the polymer film, transfers the heat to the polymer film, which is changed locally as a result (for example in refractive index and/or in reflective behavior). The fixing beam follows the write beam, here a focused laser beam in the continuous wave (CW) mode, somewhat wider than the write beam, which bleaches the absorber dye no longer needed track by track in the region considered after the writing operation, that is to say removes the absorber dye, so to speak, like a rubber eraser. No high requirements are placed on the fixing beam in terms of quality. The beam profile and the stability are of subordinate importance; it is merely necessary to ensure that the power is sufficient to bleach the absorber dye. Furthermore, the fixing beam should have no detrimental effect on the absorber dye in regions (for example adjacent tracks or polymer film plies) which are subsequently still to be written.
The designation "fixing beam" is selected in analogy with a photographic process in which, in the fixing operation, excess light-sensitive material is removed from a photographic film. This analogy illustrates a further advantage of the method according to the invention: changing the absorption properties of the absorber dye prevents subsequent inadvertent changing of the information entered.
As already mentioned, in a preferred refinement of the invention, the absorber dye can be bleached and it is at least partly bleached in order to change its absorption properties. Absorber dyes which are particularly suitable for this purpose are dyes which are not particularly lightfast and can therefore be bleached easily. Typical examples of such dyes are azo and diazo dyes. Under the action of light, they are subject to continual cis-trans isomerization, which ultimately leads to destruction of the chromophoric system. In addition, the cyanin and phthalocyanin dyes known from CD-ROM technology can be bleached relatively easily.
In addition to dyes which can be bleached, photochromic and thermochromic dyes are also suitable as an absorber dye. Photochromic dyes, such as spiro compounds, change their structure and therefore their color under irradiation of light of suitable wavelength. If, following the conversion, the compound has a color which is no longer absorbed by the write beam and/or read beam, the purpose is fulfilled in exactly the same way as in the case of a bleachable dye.
In the case of thermochromic compounds, a structure change and therefore a color change occurs as a result of heating. When the method is carried out, this color change is achieved by the absorber dye absorbing the fixing beam and converting its light energy into heat energy.
The changes in the case of thermochromic and photochromic dyes are often reversible, which can be advantageous for specific applications.
In general, it is true that the write beam must heat the polymer film locally in order to enter information, specifically via the associated absorber dye. The write beam is therefore operated in the pulsed mode (for example with short pulses of less than about 1 μs duration). In the case of the action of the fixing beam on the absorber dye, on the other hand, the associated region of the polymer film should not be changed, that is to say this region may be heated only slightly. For the fixing beam, therefore, a laser beam in the continuous wave mode which has a lower intensity than the write beam is suitable.
Apart from the application of a fixing beam to a predetermined region of the polymer film, preferably directly following the entering of information into this region with the aid of the write beam, there is also the possibility that the absorption properties of the absorber dye in the data storage medium will be changed as a whole, after the action of the pulsed write beam on the data storage medium has been completed. For this purpose, the data storage medium is, for example, irradiated over the entire area with ultraviolet light, in order to bleach all of the absorber dye contained in the data storage medium. After that, no further information can be entered. The low expenditure as compared with the use of a fixing beam is advantageous. However, there is the disadvantage that only the reading operations are made easier since, during the writing operations, the absorber dye must still be present and thus has a detrimental effect on the transmission of the write beam.
If the polymer film in the data storage medium is arranged in a multiplicity of plies, there is preferably in each case an adhesion layer, which optionally contains absorber dye, between adjacent polymer film plies. The refractive index of the adhesion layer preferably differs only slightly from the refractive index of the polymer film, in order that no undesired reflections occur at the interfaces between an adhesion layer and a polymer film ply, which have a detrimental effect on the transmission of the write beam or of the read beam. On the other hand, small differences between the refractive indices of the polymer film plies and the adhesion layers can be utilized for formatting the data storage medium. The difference in the refractive indices is preferably so small that the reflection at the interface is below 4% or, even better, below 1%. Particularly beneficial conditions may be achieved if the difference in the refractive indices is less than 0.005.
In the case of a multi-ply data storage medium, the polymer film is preferably wound spirally. In this way, with the aid of a single polymer film, a multi-ply structure of the data storage medium may be achieved, which permits a high storage density and a high storage capacity. In this case, the data storage medium preferably has an optically transparent core which is set up to accommodate a writing and reading device of a drive matched to the data storage medium. The drive can have a writing and/or reading head which moves in the interior of the transparent core, relative to the data storage medium, which is at rest, or in which the write and/or read beam is coupled into the data storage medium via moving optical elements. Since, in this case, the data storage medium itself is at rest, it does not need to be balanced with regard to a rapid rotational movement.
The polymer film used as the data carrier is preferably stretched, for example by being prestressed in two mutually perpendicular directions within its plane during production. This leads to a high energy density being stored in the film material. As a result of the deposition of a relatively low quantity of energy per unit area with the aid of the write beam, an intense material change (for example material compaction) can then be obtained by reformation which, for example, results in a local change in the refractive index and a change in the optical path length in the material. The change in the refractive index in the region which is heated locally by the write beam is preferably of the order of magnitude of 0.2, which leads to a change in the local reflectance, which may easily be detected with the aid of a read beam.
Preferred materials for the polymer film are polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polymethylpentene (PMP; also poly-2-methylpentene), polyvinylchloride and polyimide. While biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) and polyvinylchloride (PVC) are particularly cost-effective, the other materials mentioned have a crystallite melting point of at least 170� C., which leads to increased long-term stability.
In the following text, the invention will be explained further using exemplary embodiments. In the drawings:
In the exemplary embodiment, the polymer film 11 consists of biaxially oriented polypropylene and has been prestressed in both surface directions before being wound. In the exemplary embodiment, the polymer film 11 has a thickness of 35 μm; other thicknesses in the range from 10 μm to 100 μm or else thicknesses lying outside this range are likewise conceivable. The adhesion layers 12 are free of gas bubbles and, in the exemplary embodiment, consist of acrylate adhesive with a thickness of 23 μm, preferred layer thicknesses being between 1 μm and 40 μm. Instead of an acrylate adhesive, a varnish, for example, can also be used for the adhesion layers.
Arranged on the polymer film 11 is an absorber layer, which contains an absorber dye (see below) which is embedded in a matrix of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). The thickness of the absorber layer is preferably less than 0.5 μm and, in the exemplary embodiment, is 0.4 μm. The wound data storage medium 1 thus has a layer structure in which in each case a ply 10 of the polymer film 11 is followed by an absorber layer and then an adhesion layer 12.
In the exemplary embodiment, the data storage medium 1 contains twenty plies 10 of the polymer film 11 and has an external diameter of about 30 mm. The height of the core is 19 mm. A different number of plies 10 or other dimensions are likewise possible. The number of windings or plies can lie, for example, between ten and thirty, but can also be greater than thirty.
The writing and reading device 2 arranged in the interior of the core contains a writing and reading head 20 which, with the aid of a mechanism 21, can be rotated and moved axially to and fro in the directions of the arrows shown. The writing and reading head 20 has optical elements with the aid of which a light beam (for example with a wavelength of 630 nm or 532 nm) produced by a laser not illustrated in
In order to enter or write information into the data storage medium 1, the laser in the exemplary embodiment is operated with a beam power of about 10 mW. In this case, the laser beam is used as a write beam and is focused onto a preselected ply 10 of the polymer film 11 (or the absorber layer on the polymer film 11 in this ply 10), so that the beam spot is smaller than 1 μm. The light energy is in this case introduced in the form of short pulses of less than 1 μs duration. The energy of the write beam is absorbed in the beam spot, primarily by the absorber dye, which leads to local heating of the polymer film 11 and therefore to a local change in the refractive index and the reflecting behavior. During the writing operation, the write beam is defocused in the plies adjacent to the ply 10 considered of the polymer film 11, so that the adjacent plies of the polymer film 11 and the associated absorber dye are locally heated only slightly and the stored information is not changed there.
In the polymer film 11, the information units are formed by changing the optical properties in a region with a preferred size of less than 1 μm. In the process, the information can be stored in binary form, that is to say the local reflectivity assumes only two values at the location of an information unit. This means that, if the reflectivity is above a defined threshold value, a "1", for example, is stored at the considered location of the information carrier, and if it is below this threshold value or below another, lower threshold value, accordingly a "0". However, it is also conceivable to store the information in a plurality of gray stages. This is possible if the reflectivity of the polymer film at the location of an information unit can be changed in a specific manner by means of defined setting of the refractive index, without saturation being reached in the process.
With the aid of the write beam, the information units are entered along preformatted tracks 32. For this purpose, the write beam, as already explained, is focused onto the polymer film 11 or the absorber layer arranged on the latter. This leads to local heating of the absorber dye 34, shown hatched in
According to the invention, the absorption properties of the absorber dye 34 are changed after the desired information units have been written into a predetermined region of the polymer film 11 (the upper track 32 here). For this purpose, use is made in the exemplary embodiment of a fixing beam 37 which bleaches the absorber dye 34. This therefore produces a bleached region 38, in which the absorber dye no longer absorbs the write beam and a read beam or at least does so only to a considerably lesser extent.
In the exemplary embodiment, the fixing beam 37 has a larger region of the focus than the write beam 36, as can be seen in
Alternatively, it is conceivable to use the same laser and the same optics both for the write beam and for the fixing beam. For this purpose, for example, the laser is firstly operated in a pulsed manner to provide the write beam, in order to enter the desired information into a predetermined region of the polymer film 11 (for example a track or a section of a track). After that, the laser is switched into CW mode and the laser beam is defocused somewhat, in order to move over this region again as a fixing beam and in the process to bleach the absorber dye.
In the exemplary embodiment, the absorber dye is "Fettschwarz [literally: grease black] (Fluka 46300)". This is an azo dye which may easily be bleached. The absorber dye is contained in the absorber layer in the exemplary embodiment, specifically in a concentration such that, with the given thickness of the absorber layer, the result is an optical density of about 0.3 at the light wavelength of the write beam. The optical density can be lower, but also higher, since the absorber dye does not hinder the transmission of the write beam or of a read beam further if the data storage medium is, for example, written from inside to outside and the excess absorber dye is bleached, as explained, after a writing operation.
The optical density is a variable which is well suited to characterizing the absorption behavior. For the optical density D, it is true that:
D=log(1/T)=ελ c d
Here, T=I/I0 is the transmission through a layer of thickness d, the intensity of the incident radiation falling from I0 to I, ελ is the extinction coefficient at the wavelength λ used (concentration-independent material parameter), and c is the concentration of the absorber dye.
In order to read stored information out of the data storage medium 1, the laser used for the write beam in the exemplary embodiment is operated in the CW mode. Depending on the stored information, the read beam focused onto the desired location is reflected, and the intensity of the reflected beam is registered by a detector in the writing and reading device 2.

Probably one of the best burritos I have ever had. It's delicious! I loved the vegetarian burrito, vegan style. Black/pinto beans, rice, potatoes and veggies.
One thing to beware: you can overdue this place. I ate there so much, I grew tired of the food.
I would suggest the Vegetarian burrito (ask for no dairy if vegan). It is filled with delicious veggies, rice and beans (pinto, black beans, or both). I prefer black beans. Huge portions.

You are here: Home > Information > FAQ
What are the principles for station planning on the Taipei MRT? (Planning)
Stations range in complexity from simple at-grade suburban stations to major urban intermodal transfer stations. The location of each station is determined by an interactive process that is influenced by many factors, including ridership forecasts, station spacing, site topography, alignment, utilities, land acquisition, and environmental considerations.
The principles for determining final locations of MRT stations are:
1. Areas that are already well developed or those with development potential, as well as those possessing good auxiliary integrated transit system connections are prioritized.
2. While giving priority to transportation function, MRT line alignments should make use of land already used for public facilities and refrain from the demolition of any existing properties.
3. Given that MRT stations should be adjacent to major public facilities, in order to maintain an average speed of 34 kph, with 80 kph as the maximum speed, the ideal distance between stations is over 800 meters. In downtown areas, the distance generally ranges from 800 to 1,000 meters; in the suburbs, the range is from 1,000 to 2,000 meters. To facilitate access to the MRT, it's preferable that the distance between stations not exceed 2,400 meters.

The way New York Life runs their business I am surprised they can even keep their doors open, and lesson learned for anyone shopping for insurance and investments is get to know how well they treat employees and agents. If you hear reports or word of mouth that the company your interested in buying from cannot respect their agents or employees what are the true chances of having them respect your money. New York Life is the worste company I have ever worked for...the Portland, Salem and Eugene Offices in Oregon were enough for me to really see the light as to how corrupt this company is. Good luck with your future careers Blake McKinney, Andrew Smith and Krikor Notonmywatch. These 3 individuals screwed over several agents and caused them to lose their houses or put people in to financial harms ways. The best thing about this situation is that Amy ODonnel and Andrew Smith..both managers at the time I worked their had filed bankruptcy its all on public record with FINRA. How can anybody work for New York Life as a money manager advicing agents let alone clients on their finances when they have both filed bankruptcy. What has the world come to when you have some filing bankruptcy advising someone else on how to save for retirement what a joke, this is why we have so many complaints about agents in the industry. Insurance companies love crooks and people with no conciousness...where is the moral compass god gave you idiots.

I understand your frustration
AUTHOR: Carolyn - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, February 23, 2010POSTED: Tuesday, February 23, 2010
I completely understand where you are angry with the disability company. Unfortunately, it depends on the language of the definition of disability for your particular policy. If the definition indicates that you must be disabled from performing your own occupation (telecommunications as you indicate), then you definately have a case as your condition may prevent you from doing your job. But if the definition indicates that you must be totally disabled from any occupation (meaning that you cannot do any job anywhere other than telecommunications) and your doctors are only saying that you cannot do your own job, than unfortunately you do not meet the definition of disability. The standard is an own occupation period (usually the first 24 months of disability), then to an any occupation period (for the remainder of the policy). Have you received any benefits? Have you applied for Social Security disability (SSDI)? If not, I strongly urge you to as Social Security uses different guidelines to determine disability. Please also keep in mind that if you have been approved for SSDI, this does not make a difference in how your disability with the insurance company goes, as again they use separate guidelines.
The bad thing is that many people are wrongly educated that if you pay premiums for a disability policy, that means you will receive benefits if you become unable to work. This is not true, you have to meet guidelines as set forth in your policy. Agents are of no help as they only sell the policy and do not impact the decision.
I wish you only the best of luck, and since I was a disability manager for over 15 years, I would be happy to answer any questions if you have any.....

Earlier today, I promised myself to stay back late at the office to finish up whatever things I have to finish. But since my head feels like exploding already, so plan cancelled. I need to settle them badly but whatever, I am tired.
It has been 3 days since Cousin passed away, yet it feels like she's still around. Pain of losing people we dearly love is…just unexplainable. I am at a loss for words.
Anyway, Ramadhan Mubarak!

DEMONcratic Party of extreme Liberals, even Leftists?
sort by best latest
* Demands to censor every expression, from attacking people physically for wearing Trump shirts or American flags on Cinco de Mayo to financial penalties for not using the pronoun that a mentally ill person demands you use (NYC)
* Here is our official list of political beliefs, disagree with it and get hate mobbed in the name of tolerance - down to threatening your life and trying to get you fired. Look at the classic feminists like Camille Pagalia no-platformed for saying a man with male plumbing shouldn't get both men's awards and women's awards and how letting a man who spent the first four decades of his career as a man shouldn't get the highest paid woman designation for the tech world.
* Deliberately targeting conservative events and groups for infiltration and change, from trying to enroll the children of homosexuals at private schools and then demanding they change the curriculum or get sued while sending death threats to the schools that refuse the child. This happened at my son's school, several others were similarly targeted, as if threats to kill teachers and burn down a private elementary school in the name of love is somehow moral.
Social justice warriors are showing up at conservative gatherings like Ben Shapiro speeches or Milo Yiannapolis talks with air horns to disrupt, sometimes physically attacking the speaker on stage (Milo) or assaulting the audience members (Ben Shapiro) - but get excused by authorities as having been "triggered" and unable to not attack people they disagree with despite entering private spaces. This is fascism. That they demand you not express these views in public and then enter private gatherings and group sand attack you there TOO.

text: We had a 1/2 the distance penality late in the 4th on the kick off return I believe. We got the ball at the 11. Can someone explain how the penality works? I thought if we could go back 10 yards you did unless 1/2 the distance to the goal was less. I would have thought a 1/2 the distance would have to put us inside the 10 yard line on a 10 yard penality. Thanks.

Friday, August 5, 2011
Happy Anniversary!
Also, this happens to be the month in which I reached 1,000 twitter followers. Twitter, as I discovered last year, is AMAZING. It is like a constant IV drip of information, opinions, news, and interesting people. Don't get me wrong, I love my Facebook. Via Twitter, however, I've been able to "meet" (tweet?) authors, agents, poets, and other people -- and of course, discover their blogs.
...Which led directly to me winning a blog contest! Over at terribleminds.com, author, screenwriter, and drunken lunatic Chuck Wendig held a contest in honor of reaching 5,000 twitter followers. The terms: comment with a story in three sentences. The prizes: a free pdf or Kindle version of one of his ebooks, "Irregular Creatures," "Confessions of a Freelance Penmonkey," or "250 Things You Should Know About Writing," and/or a postcard. Winner gets all four, of course.
As one of the three runners-up, I got to choose an ebook. I went with the short story collection "Irregular Creatures," and began reading the pdf in the hour before midnight. Needless to say, my dreams were peppered with demonic flying cats. Satankitties, as it were. But more on that later.
To read all contest entries, including the winner and the three runners-up, click this link. My own three sentences were:
The dragon was slain, the tower door open at last -- all that stood in her way was the knight.
"Save me," he choked, blood seeping through the rents in his shining armor.
The princess smiled sweetly and stepped over him to freedom.

Dust choked the aether, a cloud where a world once stood. It had been a world full of ordinary things, of love and prosperity, of war and restless souls. But only now did it have peace.ReplyDelete
Okay, I've finally got mine. I wrote about 5 other 3-sentence stories before this one because they're kind of hard. Here it is:ReplyDelete
I come home to a cold, empty house and a note on the counter, but I don't look at it, thinking she must have gone out with her friends. I peek into her bedroom and find half her clothes missing, her drawers thrust open and her duffel bag gone from its usual spot in the corner, and that's when I realize what she's done. I'm terrified that this time, I won't be able to find her.
Hmmm, now I'm thinking that I could turn this into a novel. :)
You probably could:) Do you know if anyone else from the blogfest/other is planning to enter, btw?ReplyDelete
With the windows up, her hair blew back from the steady force of air conditioning, making her all the more gorgeous: brand-new and separated from the likes of me by glass and pricier options. It was just a five-year old Civic but she sped past me with the agility of a freshly-assembled Beemer. Oh dear God in heaven, now what was this in her rearview -- she of the fancy pants a/c set -- why, it's a prominent middle finger and a wide sneer. . . an exclusive prize meant just for me.ReplyDelete
No has e-mailed me back about it, so I'm not sure.ReplyDelete

Vowing to save her, he spent his years on the highest mountains, in the deepest forests, and the loneliest islands, mastering his sword arm, to slay the dragon and best the black knight, to save her from the black king's schemes. The day came, and to a triumphant rising sun, he set out, raiding the dark castle, slaying the monster, and dueling the ebon warrior. His trials complete, he raced up the stairs to the tallest tower…to find the princess had taken quite a liking to the dark king's son anyway.ReplyDelete

The clock is ticking
Can you see the countdown on the top left of this page, yeah i already in my 34 weeks and 2 more weeks to go. (Note:36 weeks is considered as safe enough to deliver). Hatiku berdegup-degup, feeling guilty as i should register for pre ante natal class but the time is very limited for me to spend a few hours to attend the class. So, the best teachers are to ask my mum, my colleagues and from my reading materials.
Takut, yerp.. I believe that giving birth is one of the nature's most powerful event in woman's life. Im speaking about how birth and pregnancy experience has changed your perspective in life. As for myself, once I was ambitious to be the best among my friends (you can read my archives) but later on, the reflections of motherhood has certainly twist my objective. To tell you the truth, no more talking about ACCA, no more another 3 years of facing the compliance periods and no more depanding on THAT scholarship. But now Im looking forward to work (yeah, i strongly advise we as a woman should has a stable job unless your hubby is totally $$$) in a place where you can spend MORE time with your family.
I know that i have a feeling of motherhood when i am willing to do anything for my baby. I could not describe the experience when the baby is kicking, stroking and twisting in your tummy or he does nothing at all!! Itu belum lagi when he is born, placed in my arms and screaming at me. Subhanallah.
Anyway, to answer the most favorite question, insyaAllah kalau tak de ape-ape, my due date is around 28 june 2006 to 5 th july, so another few weeks to go and i understand the given date is not sufficient enough!!

By: Nicholas Tomalin and Ron Hall
Location:NF 920 TOM
Genre: True story of deceit and sail racing
Now a major motion picture starring Colin Firth and Rachel Weisz, directed by James Marsh (The Theory of Everything).
Crowhurst proves that highly intelligent (and brave) men can make many
bad decisions, leading to ultimate failure. This brings into question:
what really is intelligence? The Strange Last Voyage of Donald Crowhurst
is a fascinating account of his last voyage. Taking part in the global
race was not enough for him. Deceit and ramblings about disembodied
intelligence are consequences of his vanity. Nevertheless, all
fascinating stuff. A very interesting but deeply flawed man. The best
decision would have been to wait the following year to embark on the
race but to Donald Crowhurst, hesitation was minus time and action plus
time. Neither he nor the boat was ready. There are many lessons in this
-Simon- Goodreads.com
In 1968, Donald
Crowhurst was trying to market a nautical navigation device he had
developed, and saw the Sunday Times Golden Globe round the world sailing
race as the perfect opportunity to showcase his product.
Few people
knew that he wasn't an experienced deep-water sailor. His progress was
so slow that he decided to short-cut the journey, while falsifying his
location through radio messages from his supposed course.
following the race thought that he was winning, and a hero's welcome
awaited him at home in Britain. But on 10 July 1968, eight months after
he set off, his wife was told that his boat had been discovered drifting
in mid-Atlantic. Crowhurst was missing, assumed drowned, and there was
much speculation that this was one of the great mysteries of the sea.
this masterpiece of investigative journalism, Nicholas Tomalin and Ron
Hall reconstruct one of the greatest hoaxes of our time. From in-depth
interviews with Crowhurst's family and friends and telling excerpts from
his logbooks, Tomalin and Hall develop a tale of tragic self-delusion
and public deception, a haunting portrait of a complex, deeply troubled
man and his journey into the heart of darkness.

Today's real wedding is actually an elopement, and it is the embodiment of the phrase, "When you know, you know." They weren't even engaged for two full weeks before getting married, which means their day was entirely focused just on their love and vows. Though their day didn't include the typical wedding accouterments, Rhianon and Alex had everything they needed: each other. If their elation weren't obvious enough just by their faces, their barefoot dancing and lounging in the grass perfectly captures the spirit of their relationship.
From the Photographer:
Alex & Rhianon's ceremony was as romantic, loving, and emotional as they come.
They were engaged 13 days before their wedding and, since they both travel frequently for work and happened to be home (Park City, Utah) and neither could wait to say their I Dos, they quickly planned an elopement.
The couple found local officiant Stephanie Bryant Barton online and said they knew immediately that she would be the perfect complement to their twosome. Once they shared with her their vision for a quiet, rustic, mountain ceremony, Stephanie recommended a nearby hand-built arbor almost 10,000ft above sea level as the ideal locale for them to exchange vows.
The weather on the Day was spectacular. Though it was only September, Park City had received a dusting of snow days earlier, so the mountains were white-capped. The fall foliage had emerged, so the brush and trees were golden-hued. After a cozy breakfast together, Rhianon spent the morning getting dolled up while Alex bustled around town, picking up the flowers, rings, and cake.
At 3pm, atop Park City at Guardsman Pass, Park City photographer Carla Boecklin and her husband/assistant, Victor Rybovich, served as witnesses to the heartfelt ceremony. Alex and Rhianon recited their handwritten vows to one another, each alternately crying and laughing as the other delivered affectionate memories and promises. In the end, Stephanie, Carla, and Victor had tears in their eyes when Alex took Rhianon in his arms for the first time as his wife.
Following the cake-cutting, the group traveled to Park City's famed McPolin Barn to capture more images. The sun hovered perfectly along the mountain peaks as Alex, Rhianon, Carla, and Victor playfully explored the property photographically. The day – and the tone of the images — can be easily summarized by Rhianon's words: "We are so happy!"

Prime Minister David Cameron on Sunday defended his plans to change the way parliament works and pledged a full audit of government in his first major interview since taking office.
The Conservative Party leader, who has formed a coalition with the Liberal Democrats, insisted their partnership could last, in a BBC television interview from the prime minister's 10 Downing Street office in London.
Cameron dismissed concerns over proposals to introduce a fixed-term, five-year parliament, with a 55 percent majority of lawmakers needed to dissolve it.
Currently, parliaments are elected for five years but can be dissolved to trigger an election at any time should the monarch grant a prime minister's request to do so.
Cameron said the idea was a "very positive one".
"I believe the time has come for us to move in Britain to fixed-term parliaments," he said.
"I'm the first prime minister in British history to give up the right, independently, to go to the Queen and ask for a dissolution at a time of my choosing. This is a big surrender of prime ministerial power. I think it's a really good thing.
"If you have a fixed-term parliament, you have to have some form of mechanism of actually making sure it is a fixed-term parliament."
Cameron said that finance minister George Osborne would launch Monday an audit of the government's books by the new Office of Budget Responsibility.
He said the former prime minister Gordon Brown's administration had made "crazy" spending decisions that "no rational government would have done".

I think Go Collect and JC Whitney should have thier own separate place. I think it is misleading to group them in CJ as they both have two ways to be handled by affiliates

I like the idea but it seems to me there is a small conlfict.
If the interest is in "streamlining", you really need a dedicated forum for each merchant.... Bear with me a moment.
How many posts are in the forums on dell or office max or many of the other vendors who seem to have complaints brought up time after time.
New affiliates to the board are overwhelmed with the information in here and they usually will only pay attention to what is currently displayed as active topics. They could likely find more data if they performed a search and I'm sure some do but I suspect the majority don't.
Now the conflict - I understand that a dedicated forum on a vendor is a source of income and hence you would be reluctant to add a folder or dedicated forum for the many smut vendors but....... if the interest is "streamlining", then thats what seems to be logical to me.
Your members would be able to see logical data grouped together and see more history for a merchant quicker.
Less disk space would be required eliminating dulicate posts, fewer searches for posts would performed as well reducing server processing and bandwidth too.
It would also be harder for the smut vendors to continue to hide under the sheets. Currently, topic issues aren't in front of our users very long so complaints get pushed to the back and lose focus. With a dedicated forum for each merchant, issues with the merchant will remain in the forefront much longer and hence "less new affiliates will sign up and be dupped". This would help ensure crappy merchants are not making a dime from feeding off of your members sites.
We can start working to expose bad practices of the companies effectively or.... let um hide under the sheets and continue to feed off of and dup new affiliates.
The sooner we put issues at the forefront and keep them there, the sooner we can change and force smut vendors to change their crappy ways.
Perhaps more income would be derived from getting a vendor to pay you to NOT have a dedicated forum on them - but of course........ thats another catch22.

Hi, I (in fact my sponsor) uploaded Wesnoth 0.7.3, but it's failing to build in all buildds. The problem is that the .orig.tar.gz was created with the --posix option and the tar version installed in builds extracts the files incorrectly, just have a look at this buildd log: http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=wesnoth&ver=0.7.3-1&arch=sparc&stamp=1082506514&file=log&as=raw Will buildds support packages created with --posix? BTW, I will make sure next version (expected to be released in a couple of days) don't include that --posix switch. Any advise in this issue? Thank you, Isaac

Managing Clipboards
The X10 window system specified buffers named cut buffers for saving snippets of arbitrary text. Cut buffers were since replaced by so-called seletions with the introduction of the X11 window system. In X11, there are three types of selections: PRIMARY, SECONDARY, and CLIPBOARD. Any type of selection is often simply referred to as the clipboard. For matters of consistency, X11 applications must use only a single selection type (this was different under X10 where an application was able to control multiple cut buffers). Applications typically only use either PRIMARY or CLIPBOARD (check the ArchWiki and Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual (ICCCM) for further information).
Some applications define their own keybindings (and let the user change them) for accessing selections. Common keybindings to copy text include Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Alt-C, Ctrl-Shift-C, and Ctrl-Insert. To cut text, i.e., to copy text to a selection while deleting it in the application, the bindings Ctrl-X, Ctrl-Alt-X, Ctrl-Shift-X, and Shift-Delete are commonly used. Frequent keybindings for pasting text include Ctrl-V, Ctrl-Alt-V, Ctrl-Shift-V, and Shift-Insert. Text can often be copied to PRIMARY by selecting it using the mouse. A mouse middle-click commonly pastes text from PRIMARY into the application.
Clipboard managers allow for streamlining copy, cut, and paste operations involving different type of selections. Most clipboard managers keep a history of copied or cut text. Some managers are also able to consolidate selections by copying entered text from one selection to all other selections, thereby keeping the text buffers of the selections consistent. Additionally, some managers allow you to reorder and edit the text buffers. A list of clipboard managers for Linux is available from the ArchWiki.
One example of a feature-rich clipboard manager is CopyQ. Besides the aforementioned features, the program allows for cycling through the selection buffers and searching their content. Moreover, CopyQ supports Vim keybindings, can be controlled from the command-line, and is available under Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. You can disable or enable mouse copy and paste actions in the program's preferences. In case the CopyQ window is in the background, the command copyq toggle brings the selection history to the foreground and in focus, thus allowing you to access any selection buffer. Setting a keybinding for copyq toggle in your window manager, enables you to have the CopyQ history readily available.
Update 2017-01-26: Using a clipboard manager comes with the benefit that you can check what you are gonna paste before you paste it. This benefit is particularly valuable when you copy commands from a website that you want to paste into a terminal, as what you see is not always what you get.

Every consumer before to buy something, clarifies the value of goods and calculation of suspended ceilings is needed just for this.

Calculations for pattern fabric
to qualify stretch ceiling was perfectly flat, without wrinkles and slack, it must be properly cut out from the web, taking into account at the same time not only the size and configuration of the room, but also the thickness and elasticity of the film itself.
For this makes accurate measurements of the room and the drawing is made, after which the web is cut out, taking into account the shrinkage.

In every company engaged in the installation of ceilings of PVC film, there are managers who produce measurement and calculation - tension structures re

For example, we are not drawing the most complex single-level ceiling.
As you can see, here it is necessary to remove only nine linear dimensions (AB, BC, and so on. D.) To determine the radius of the part of the circles.If the curve is not divisible by large radius sections that divide it into small pieces and measuring the linear distance from the corner C to the end of each.
By and large, customers should not worry, as the measurements are made - is the task of the manufacturer.We just want to explain why you should not do them yourself, wanting to save money, and referring to the firm (sm.Proizvoditeli suspended ceilings, the leaders), to offer services without a professional measurement.
Determination of shrinkage
leaf cut out in such a way that it is at a certain percentage less than the actual area.This is to ensure that the web is pulled well and does not sag under its own weight.This deliberate reduction in size is called shrinkage.
amount of shrinkage is determined on the basis of experience with the film and depends on:
- Square top.
- film thickness which differs from vendor to vendor.
Costing ceiling
is obvious that the calculation of the ceiling of the tension is based on the sampling and determination of its area, which is multiplied by the cost per square meter.
For reference .As a rule, the cost of 1 sq .stretch ceiling specified by the manufacturer, already includes the cost of installation.
But the area - is not the only parameter that determines the final price of the finished ceiling.There are plenty of criteria that influence on it.
All measurements to determine the value of a stretch ceiling are made only after the client has determined its shape, number of levels, the kind and amount of lighting, after final assembly and finishing walls and partitions and devices other structures (eg, boxes of plasterboard).
To calculation, the following data:
- area stretch ceiling .
- number of angles - internal and external, as well as their absence, for example, when installing the round insert to the base surface.
- existence and extent of the curved sections , which complicate the installation of mounting structures (baguettes) and installation of the web.
- type and quantity of fixtures and other embedded designs .For them, it is necessary to install the appropriate mounting and to arrange holes in the canvas stretched ceiling.
- Availability leaving the ceiling pipes (sm.Natyazhnoy ceilings: how to make a bypass pipe) , ducts and so on. N .They are irremovable obstacles that had to do with the installation and take into account when cutting.
- Number of Levels tensile structures.For multilevel structures must be custom-made device, which, of course, significantly increases the final cost.
For reference .All of these design features are considered under a separate tariff and added to the cost calculated by area.Therefore, when the initial data equal the cost of one square meter in area larger top will be lower than the same cost less.
Design features
no secret that the PVC film, which are made of stretch fabric, has a different quality depending on where and by whom it was made.If you decide to install French ceilings - the calculation of their value will be produced at a higher rate than the prices for the materials of domestic producers.
In addition, the price will affect the texture of paintings - matte or glossy, as well as its color.
to rise in price, and sometimes very significant, may cause a desire to put on the surface of the image (photo printing), to arrange a hidden LED lights, or to achieve a certain visual effect.
