Why is it that Alice's powers are affected by Jacob's werewolf-y awesomeness (sorry, I've just always had a soft spot for werewolves.), but Edward can still read his mind? Was that explained, or is this post under the right subject?

She could see Bella cliff-diving when they were hundereds of miles apart. And she IS more sensitive to non-humans. I think I debunked that one rather sucessfully... Sorry, Dee. :)

I can't remember very well. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but just saying! :D

Bella is special because she has a private mind: Edward and Aro can't read her, and Jane can't create the illusion of pain. Jake is a normal semi-human (oxymoron?) without any added goodies. I think it's just that he's a werewolf is the reason why Alice can't see him. Or he was thinking too fast for her to get a good view of the future.
