Pay her. Pay the tabloids. Pay anyone who's ever heard the word "affair"!

Also, it would probably help, if possible, if you could tell them which issue this typo came from. (Though as this appears to be a result, it would be understandable if you didn't know.

Either "but" is unnecessary (alongside the following "to") or "neither" should be used. As far as I know.

Which of the below sentences is the correct way to tell someone how to refer to the thing that many humans and animals rest on?
"Use the word 'bed'."
"Use the word bed."
In the first sentence, you're saying to use a certain word, which you then give. That's the correct answer. In the second sentence, you're saying to use something called a "word bed". Because "bed" isn't set apart from the rest of the sentence, there's no indication to read it like that. So instead of "word" being the object of the sentence (what is being used), "bed" is, and "word" is an adjective that is applied to it. That is not the correct answer to the question I asked.

Terrallamus wrote:The issue "Gunman kills three" is HORRENDOUSLY one-sided. option one is to get rid of guns. option two is to get rid of guns, not only for citizens but also get rid of them in the army and police force. option three is to crack down on violent videogames and movies. There needs to be a middle ground. Here is my suggestion:
"Ummm... well," says noticably timid sensible gun control activist Tim Jeffries "Maybe we could, like, make it so that criminals, and, like, crazy people can't get guns- ARGH! LET GO OF MY THROAT!"
Effect:
nation desc. : criminals and the mentally damaged are frequently seen crying on the street because they can't own firearms.
Stats: Economy - goes up/down slightly due to increased/decreased gun industry sales.

It's the intro to option #1. The Unicode doesn't display in the issue text, but it shows up in the editing CP (I can't correct it, but I can see it). Additionally, the closing speech marks are curved, not straight, though that's a separate issue.

It's not actually UTF-8 proper, but rather a single byte with hex code 0F, defined by ASCII as "Shift In", and rarely used by anyone for anything. Whoever put it there, it's clearly not supposed to be there.
