Sometimes, when code gets too nested and adding a nest causes me pain, I actually consider that.

I do parameter validation at the top of a method and throw exceptions if necessary. After that, one exit to rule them all.

Ah that could be a solution but I can't throw exceptions in my code as we use Win32 APIs so we're stich with SEH and then we have a master controller in VB6, so return codes are the best solution, also most of the code is 10-15 years old written by a chemist turned programmer.
Also I came to respect the return-value based flow control as most of the times in the fields I work on is the most reasonable way to proceed. Of course on a strictly OOP environment exceptions make the rule!

My daughter bought a photo, taken by one of those critical-moment-snap-on-rollercoaster cameras, where everyone in the cars fore and aft is screaming, and I'm gazing off nonchalantly to my left as if nothing interesting is happening.
That's pretty much normal, for me. If there's no real danger, what is there to be afraid of?
My daughter is screaming in the picture, too. Must be her mother's bad genes.

A little while back I went to a theme park with she-who-must-be-obeyed. It was a little tame so we sauntered about. Stopped for lunch and then decided to do the rollercoaster.
Big, big, big mistake. I came off green: how I held my lunch down I have no idea. Moral of that tale: wait till after to eat!
Still, it was fun... until the after the first drop...

One funfair thing I did enjoy was a simple tower-thingy, that just shoots you straight up in the air, then drops you down again -- it's probably less than 1.5G on the way up, but it made me smile.
Nutter for linear acceleration, me.

I've been asked to recommend an online donation portal for the charity that I work for. They want to encourage Peer to Peer fundraising as well as having the ability to donate to the head office directly. I've just begun my investigation and am finding a huge number of options with all levels of options, quality and pricing.
Does anyone out there have experience in this area? Any recommendations? Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.

Not sure if programming question...
It makes slightly more sense than the usual drivel in QA, so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt.
