So.. don't know if anyone noticed (I haven't gone back to reread pages between my last forum lurk), but Celine Dion's husband died of cancer today, too. :| He was in his 70s, though.

Work-related, looks like things have slowed down CONSIDERABLY since earlier today.. Which is kind of a bummer because I, apparently, had a captcha most of the day and I wasn't able to check my PC much, just checked my queue on my phone... so I didn't catch much of ANYTHING I had running. :(

Since it's a bit dead, I think I'll load up D3 again. I've made okay money today, so I'll just be keeping an eye out for some batches... Or, y'know.. our sweet Google overlords. ;_;
what songs did he sing?

Oddly enough, he was part of a Canadian pop group in the 60s.

Has anyone been doing the substitute diet for 14 days with the requester
Zachary Arens

The instructions say periodic bonuses will be paid and I've gotten nothing. This is the 8th of 14 days.

From the email FAQ:

Q: How much will I get paid?
A: You will earn periodic bonuses for completing the surveys. If you participate fully you can earn $12 in total.

I did that study a while back. It took a week or so for the bonus, so don't fret! I'm sure he will pay it soon!

They're so much fun. Here's the album I have of this past summer: http://imgur.com/a/f2BKj

I used to hate bees, but since I started keeping them, I've started learning more and more. The more I learn, the more fascinating they are. For example: They do a dance to tell where the flowers are. The direction of their dance in respect to "up" (IE the angle from "up"), the length of the dance, and the speed of the dance tells the others how to find the flowers using trigonometry (up is the sun, angle from up is the angle from the sun, length of wiggle is log(flight time))
