I just dreamt I was at a university campus with my brother. The campus was quite green and grassy with a gentle slope. There were lots of large buildings fairly close to each other which made the space at the same time feel very open but reasonably small at the same time even though in fact it was a very spacious campus.
We both had separate rooms in separate buildings and had arranged to meet for an unspecified social activity most likely to the cinema or perhaps for food it is unclear exactly what.I had gone back to mine to change quickly before meeting up. For an unknown reason there was a mix up with keys.

Hello,
My name is NAME and I recently purchased your reference dictionary of British sign language iPhone application. When I select a word in your dictionary the video starts playing, however, it plays fairly quickly and then plays the next video, then the next, also the fourth and so on.
I was wondering if there was a way to stop the application automatically moving on to the next video? I appreciate that my visual perception skills will increase with practice, however, I simply find it too much too quickly to try and appreciate the vast number of signs also it doesn’t give me the opportunity to practice them. I am aware of the feature to replay videos but that doesn’t really allow me to practice the signs at my own pace. I would have to set the replay value to some arbitrarily high value in order to practice a couple of times before being forced onto a new sign I may not of chosen in a given category for example ceremony or circumcise in the family section when the new class I attend has only been practicing immediate family members so far.
Ideally I would prefer to be able to manually choose when the application progresses to another video. I.e. have buttons for replay or next video after the current video has finished (similar to how youtube works). As I mentioned earlier the videos can seem fairly fast to a newcomer to the language such as myself I suggest it would be helpful if there were an option to slow down the videos somehow but this seems a very minor point in comparison to the automatic play issue.
I do think it is a very good application and I chose to pay the fee, which although fair was not inconsiderable. I do, however, feel that the points I have mentioned above have so far given me a disappointing experience of your application and make it quite difficult to use the dictionary. I will look forward to your response and do hope my comments have been supportive and constructive.
Kind Regards,
NAME

Normally I don’t bother with making sure my projects are Internet Explorer compliant but the Open Flash Charts are just so pretty, and it’s not that difficult to fix, I felt I had to make sure they displayed correctly.

grep -ir –exclude=*.{ext1,ext2,ext3} ’searchterm’ .
I needed this when searching for terms that were in javascript and SQL files.
It’s not pretty when they’re included.

There is a variable $http_response_header
It contains the header reply information from the server…
$var = file_get_contents($url);
var_dump($http_response_header);
This really helped me figure out some problems when trying to cache google charts.

To whom it may concern,
I have a TV License for my place of residence, however, you continue to send me various warnings and threats about an unlicensed property.
I appreciate that in all likelihood these communications are automatically generated but I would criticise that you do not provide a free of charge method for me to inform you that your address database is incorrect.
I am especially distraught that you have sent a further letter to ‘the legal occupier’ of an invalid address with my post code ensuring that my local court is preparing to summon me.
I have provided my license number in this contact form and my telephone number and I would be grateful if one of your representatives could contact me in order to discuss the offending address(s) in your database.
Frankly I am entirely dissatisfied with your persistent and unjust harassment of an actual license holder.

Whilst still a student I worked in a pharmacy in Bridgnorth one summer for eight weeks. I really enjoyed the placement and the people there, although, not always the work. The daily commute was a pain but the people made up for it. When I left we all went for a drink in one of the local pubs. One of the presents they bought for me was a mug with the town hall of Bridgnorth on. I’ve since been working in and around Tamworth. I took the mug with me as a reminder of the fond memories I had in Bridgnorth.
A couple of nights ago I found myself dreaming I was in a multi-storey car park with a now ex-boyfriend. For some reason I was desperate to get away from him and escape in my car but I couldn’t get to it and exclude him as we were both so near to it. I decided to run up a spiralling staircase. He chased me. Initially this was playful like previous mock fights we engaged in.
