I'm sure you're thinking, it's Wednesday don't we get to find out how that Christmas party went last week? I mean it was all that you posted about! The answer is, I have good news and bad. The good news is that the party was awesome! The bad news is that it was so awesome that I forgot to take pictures…epic blog fail. I know, I know! Things got rolling and people showed up and my mind kept saying, get your camera for the blog photos and then suddenly the food was gone and it was too late.
This party was, without a doubt the best planned one I've had yet. I was crazy organized and it paid off. I was able to get all the food made in advance and it was on the table as the first guests began to arrive and I could kick back and enjoy myself the entire evening.
I have to give it to Bon Appetit's December issue for their stress free party planning guide. I followed most of it and was so glad I did.
Here are the recipes I used for the party along with pics from BonAppetite.com:
Punch: The Long Hello
Warning: This is not so much a punch as a full on cocktail. Make sure you let guests know not to drink it too fast or they will have a "better" time than they may have planned! It is pure alcohol, nothing waters it down, but in all fairness, it was delicious.
- 1 3/4 cups Calvados or other apple brandy
- 1 cup St-Germain (elderflower liqueur)
- 10 dashes bitters, preferably Fee Brothers Whiskey Barrel Aged Bitters or Angostura
- 1 750-ml bottle Champagne, chilled
- Freshly grated nutmeg
Special Equipment:
One 12-cup Bundt or tube pan; 1 punch bowl
Make and freeze ring mold with pears and apples according to our ice mold directions. DO AHEAD: Ring mold can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and keep frozen.
Stir Calvados, St-Germain, bitters, and 1 cup water in a punch bowl. Add ice ring, then Champagne. Ladle punch into glasses and grate nutmeg over.
- 2 10-ounce packages frozen shelled edamame (soybeans)
- Kosher salt
- 2 10-ounce packages frozen peas
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon ground corriander
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil plus more for drizzling
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint plus more for garnish
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Endive spears
Cook edamame in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender, 3–5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a large bowl of ice water. Return water in pot to a boil and add peas; cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Transfer peas to bowl with edamame; let cool. Drain well.
Working in batches, pulse edamame and peas in a food prcoessor until a coarse purée forms, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in juice and next 3 ingredients. Gradually stir in 3/4 cup oil; mix well. Stir in 1/4 cup cilantro and 1/4 cup mint. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
Transfer to a serving bowl; drizzle with oil and garnish with more herbs. Serve with endive spears.This was my first time making rolls of any kind and they were awesome! A little time consuming because of letting the dough rise, but overall pretty easy.
- 1 8-ounce russet potato, peeled, cut into 1″ pieces
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter plus more for the bowl and pan
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
- 1 1/4-ounce package (2 1/2 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 3 3/4 cups (or more) all-purpose flour, divided, plus more for surface
- 1 teaspoon toasted caraway seeds, lightly crushed
- 1 teaspoon pretzel salt or sea salt
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons heavy cream
Special Equipment:
A 13x9x2" baking pan
Place the potato in a small saucepan and add water to cover by 1″. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer until potato is tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid in a small microwave-safe bowl.
Meanwhile, melt 4 Tbsp. butter in another small saucepan. Add milk; stir until warm, about 1 minute, and set aside.
Transfer cooked potato to a large bowl. Mash with a fork, then stir in milk mixture, 1 tbsp. sugar, and 1/2 tsp. salt (mixture will be slightly lumpy).
Rewarm potato cooking liquid in microwave (or let cool) until an instant-read thermometer registers 105°–110°. Stir in remaining 1 Tbsp. sugar, 1 tsp. salt, and yeast; let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add yeast mixture to potato mixture and stir to combine. Add 3 1/4 cups flour with a wooden spoon and stir until a sticky dough forms.
Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead, dusting surface, dough, and your hands often with remaining 1/2 cup flour to keep dough from sticking, until dough is smooth, elastic, and slightly sticky, 7–8 minutes. Form into a ball and transfer to a buttered bowl. Turn to coat dough with butter and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rise, chilled, overnight.
Butter baking pan. Mix caraway seeds and pretzel salt in a small bowl; set aside. Punch down dough (do not knead). Cut dough in half, then roll each piece into a 12"-long log. Cut each log into 12 equal pieces, then roll each piece into a ball (for 24 total). Arrange in pan, evenly spaced, in 6 rows of 4. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Arrange a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 375°. Whisk egg and cream in a small bowl; brush tops of rolls with some of egg wash. Sprinkle with caraway salt. Bake, rotating pan once, until rolls are cooked through and deep golden, 25–30 minutes. Transfer to wire rack and let cool in pan for 5 minutes, then run a sharp knife around edges to loosen from pan; do not separate rolls. Transfer to rack and let cool for 10 minutes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Rewarm, wrapped in foil, in a 300° oven until heated through. Serve warm.
This was the first time I've ever made a ham and I decided to only make 1/2 instead of a whole ham. It was incredible. Moist and delicious and people loved cutting small slices off all night. I never would have thought to make a ham for a party, but this was genius!Ingredients
- 1 14–16 lb. whole cured, smoked bone-in ham
- 2 cups sweet (Auslese) Riesling, divided
- 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
- 3 sprigs thyme plus 2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
- 1/2 cup whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Small pinch of kosher salt
Arrange rack in lowest level of oven; preheat to 300°. Leaving fat in tact, remove outer rind from most of ham, leaving a band around the end of the shank bone. Score fat crosswise (do not cut into meat) on top of ham with parallel cuts spaced 1/2" apart. Place ham in a large roasting pan. Boil 1 cup Riesling and 7 cups water in a saucepan for 5 minutes. Pour into bottom of roasting pan. Bake ham, basting with pan juices occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the ham registers 110°, 2 1/2–3 hours.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallots and thyme sprigs; cook, stirring often, until shallots are very soft, about 10 minutes. Remove pan from heat; stir in the remaining 1 cup Riesling. Return to stove. Increase heat to medium-high, bring to a simmer, and cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 8 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs and transfer mixture to a food processor. Add thyme leaves, mustard, honey, pepper, and salt. Process until well blended.
Remove pan from oven and increase heat to 350°. Using a pastry brush, spread Riesling mixture over ham. Return pan to oven and bake ham, tenting with foil if browning too quickly, until internal temperature registers 135° and crust is golden brown, 15-30 minutes.
transfer ham to a large platter. Let rest for 30 minutes before carving. Skim fat from pan juices, reheat, and pour juices into a medium pitcher; serve alongside.There you have it. My party recipes. I also couldn't have done it without the help of Eric. He was cleaning away and did everything I asked of him, even staying up until all hours cleaning up the mess with me because I'm too neurotic to go to bed with a messy house. I'm already looking forward to next year!

Seniors: Crime |
The percentage of seniors 65 years old or older who experience a criminal attack.
COPS Program Aims to Decrease Elder Crime
Published Monday, August 31st, 2009
The elderly are the fastest growing segment of our society, and they are a large part of the country's economy. So crime, especially financial crime, is a growing concern for the Department of Justice since seniors are targeted with alarming frequency and too often successful. Problems with data gathering on such crimes stems from legal definitions of "elderly", the lack of a national repository of crime statistics like the FBI Uniform Crime Reports or the National Victimization survey specific to elder financial abuse, and the fact that fraud is under reported. A 1998 report conducted by the National Center for on Elder Abuse states that nearly one third of all elder abuse cases included financial exploitation. Also, a study by the US Senate Special Committee on Aging reported $40 billion in losses to telemarketing fraud.
The Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) has invested $2 million nationwide to create a program called the Triad, which partners with law enforcement and senior citizens to reduce crime and the fear of crime. Currently the rate of all types of crime against the elderly is at 2.5 victims per 1,000 persons 65 years old or older. The two highest type of crimes are simple assault and personal theft.

Pendragan Rags T Riches 'A' (Rheba)
Waldo v Noricum x Pendragan Hurly Burly
1.1.98– 13.1.2012
Greatly loved and sadly missed by all at
Kieserhund German Shepherds and also
Keith & June Sullivan
My best friend closed her eyes last night, As her head was in my hand. The Doctors said she was in pain, And it was hard for her to stand.
The thoughts that scurried through my head, As I cradled her in my arms. Were of her younger, puppy years, And OH...her many charms.
Today, there was no gentle nudge With an intense "I love you gaze", Only a heart that's filled with tears Remembering our joy filled days.
But an Angel just appeared to me, And he said, "You should cry no more, GOD also loves our canine friends, HE's installed a 'doggy-door"!

Sunlight streams through window pane unto a spot on the floor.... Then I remember, It's where you used to lie, but now you are no more. Our feet walk down a hall of carpet, and muted echoes sound.... Then I remember, It's where your paws would joyously abound. A voice is heard along the road, and up beyond the hill, Then I remember it can't be yours.... Your golden voice is still. But I'll take that vacant spot of floor and empty muted hall And lay them with the absent voice and unused dish along the wall. I'll wrap these treasured memorials in a blanket of my love And keep them for my best friend until we meet above.

You can ask anyone that's ever spent time waiting in agony beside me on a couch for their turn, I can't get enough of the almost infinite tweaking and tuning options that today's vids offer. From altering outfits and skill sets, to enhancing uni-brows and butt-chins, modern day gaming has evolved far beyond a time when being able to pick your own username was the pinnacle of mods. Nova Golf is a terrific new game I've been jamming out on lately that's the most advanced golf simulator for a mobile device ever to appear under my touchscreen. It has extremely in depth controls for setting up your shot, along with with a ton of different course styles and difficulty settings. At the beginning of the game, I was given the choice to pick and choose my player's abilities and appearance, and within no time, I was testing my creations skills. It took only a short while to get the hang of the clubs and swings, however I'm still shooting above par so I don't think I'll be joining the pro tour anytime soon. As the summer season is now upon us, and the smell of fresh cut grass is in the air, get yourself geared up for a round on the links by downloading the realistic Nova Golf, today.

NewsSchool District 57 Receives Funding for Energy Efficiency Projects
Thursday, June 28, 2012 - 10:47 AM School District 57 is one of several school districts in B.C. to receive funding through the government's carbon neutral capital program. The program supports energy efficiency upgrades, and Prince George schools Glenview and Blackburn have received over 384 thousand dollars in funding. Secretary Treasurer Bryan Mix says while the cost of the projects in those schools is a lot more than the funding provided, the money will help greatly. "The projects to do the mechanical reviews and the mechanical upgrades are a lot more than 384 thousand dollars. We were already staging it and that will help assist the actual development of the program. The two schools is around 2 million dollars, so that's 384 thousand of the 2 million." Mix says at Glenview they're doing mechanical upgrades, and at Blackburn they're replacing the boilers. He adds that they're also doing lighting projects this summer, which will have the benefit of reducing the carbon offsets. Most Viewed Stories More Local

Swam water for time
Searching places to find
A piece of something to call mine
(I'm coming, I'm coming)
A piece of something to call mine
(I'm coming, coming closer to you)
Ran along many moors
Walked through many doors
The place where I wanna be
Is the place I can call mine
(I'm coming, I'm coming)
Is the place I can call mine
(I'm coming, coming closer to you)
I'm moving, I'm coming
Can you hear what I hear?
It's calling you my dear
Out of reach
(Take me to my beach)
I can hear it calling you
I'm coming, not drowning
Swimming closer to you
Never been here before
I'm intrigued, I'm unsure
I'm searching for more
I've got something that's all mine
I've got something that's all mine
Take me somewhere I can breathe
I've got so much to see
This is where I wanna be
In a place I can call mine
In a place I can call mine
Moving, coming, can you hear
what I hear?
(Hear it out of reach)
I hear it calling you
Swimming closer to you
Many faces I have seen
Many places I have been
Walked the deserts, swam the shores
(coming closer to you)
Many faces I have known
Many ways in which I've grown
Moving closer on my own
(coming closer to you)
I'm moving, I feel it
I'm coming, not drowning
I'm moving, I feel it
I'm coming, not drowning
Take me to my beach.

Arrests made as OCAP protest shuts down Toronto budget meeting
Protesters with the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty disrupted a meeting of Toronto's budget committee, demanding that Mayor Rob Ford reverse cuts they say target the poor.Shortly after 10 a.m., Heather Schofield entered committee room demanding the attention of councillors who had been listening to a presentation about the city's financial future. Budget Chief Mike Del Grande quickly recessed the meeting, as the procession of activists neared."We're here because the proposed cuts that they're making are devastating," Heather Schofield told reporters after. "This is a crisis, we're not talking about can we politely please ask sir for a little more food. People are dying on the streets of Toronto, that's what we're talking about. And if you want to tell us to stand in a queue and wait and speak politely, that's bogus." (Photo: Brett Gundlock/National Post)

a) Don't panic
b)Visit http://www.r-project.org/ and follow the details for getting started
c) You will need to download certain libraries – you can see these in the code, contained in the brackets after the keyword "library". For example for Figure 1 you will need "rgdal".
d)To download a library: Once you have started R, type install.packages('name of library') for example install.packages('rgdal'). The press enter. Don't forget to enclose the name of the library in quotes.
e)One more thing. You will probably want your work and files to appear in a particular directory. If so, when you start your session, type setwd("directory of your choice") for example setwd ("C://work//geo") . Note the double forward slashes needed.
# Load the libraries that you need
# Load the data that you need
coordinates(meuse) <- c("x", "y")
# Add the coordinate system
proj4string(meuse) <- CRS("+init=epsg:28992")
meuse_ll <- spTransform(meuse, CRS("+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84"))
# Write the kml file
writeOGR(meuse_ll["zinc"], "meuse.kml", layer="zinc", driver="KML")
# Find the kml file, open GoogleEarth and drag the kml file on to the globe.
R code for Figure 2
# Load the library that you need
# Load the data that you need and add coordinate reference system
# already done for Figure 1
# Create the htm file
# Your output will look similar to Figure 2, but not identical.
How many lines of code do you think it took to fetch the code from the Internet and produce this output? Not many (using googleVis[1]). See below.
R code for Figure 4
# Get earthquake data of the last 30 days
eq <- eq[[2]] ## extract the eq table
eq$MAG <- as.numeric(as.character(eq$MAG))
# Create the map
eq$loc=paste(eq$LAT, eq$LON, sep=":") ## create a lat:long location variable
plot(gvisGeoMap(eq, "loc", "MAG","DATE", options=list(dataMode="markers")))
You can see that it would not be hard to plot accumulated location, sum insured or other measures of risk within a 20km radius of each epicentre. A nice challenge for one of your summer interns?
For me, the main benefit of using R has not been that it can do many things far better than most other software. It is that by using it, I get exposed to the methods and thinking from top experts from all over the world – the ideas you see above are only the beginning of the journey. This keeps my skill set up to date and helps me to add value to my customers.
That's all we have space for this month. If you have a topic for which you would like a solution or you have a favourite software that you would like covered, please email me at email@example.com. Do let me know also if you would like more practical detail on the topics we cover. Better still, if you would like to contribute to this column with a case study of your own – please let me know.
Further afield, CAS has an Open Source software committee which carries out various activities. These include: telephone conferences where you can hear the latest news, Webexes given by various experts and various other activities. If you would like to be part of that community please email Lee Bowron at email@example.com.

Stilly juniors win battle in softball saga
August 28, 2008 · Updated 4:08 PM
ARLINGTON Marysville and Stilly Valley Little League wrote another page in the story of their rivalry as the girls juniors teams clashed with their tournament survival on the line.
In a battle worthy of their history, each team fought tooth and nail for six innings before Stilly Valley finally pulled away to win 9-5. The victory on a breezy July 9 afternoon secured Stilly Valley a meeting with Mukilteo in the tournament's championship game.
Stilly Valley took an early lead in the bottom of the first, batting deep into their lineup and emerging with a 3-0 lead. Marysville answered with two runs of their own in the top of second and kept within a run of their rivals through the fourth inning thanks to strong defensive play, including a long pass from center fielder Sarah Newland to pitcher Jai Wright, who flipped the ball to Lexi Schrader at home to stop Stilly Valley's Alison Hammond at home for the third out.
Marysville seized the momentum of the defensive stand in the fifth inning when a single by second baseman Sam Leahy batted in Schrader and Laura Ramos for a brief 5-4 lead. Stilly tied it up again in the bottom of the fifth when pitcher Kristin Backstrom was batted in first baseman Kori Bowns' second double of the game, setting up a sixth-inning showdown.
Stilly Valley proved worthy of the win by holding Marysville to three up, three out in the top of the sixth and landing the bats they needed to in the bottom of six.
Brittany Bovard, who batted 3-for-3 against Marysville, started Stilly off with a single and four batters later, the bases were loaded. Stilly was walked in on what would prove to be the game-winning run and added RBIs from their next three batters.
Stilly Valley manager Allen Backstrom credited his team's evolution through the tournament for their success. Unlike younger Little League all-star squads that draw from multiple teams, the Stilly Valley juniors are essentially the same group of girls that played for the juniors during the regular season. Backstrom's girls saw a lot of the same teams in the tournament that they had faced during the regular season and improved to beat teams that had won in the first meeting.
"Marysville is a really tough team, but a highlight for me was beating Pacific, who had a one-loss regular season," he said, adding, "I haven't coached a team that's just happy to play the way this team has."
Having handed the Pacific girls their first loss in the double-elimination tournament, Marysville manager Jeff Plant also counted his team's meeting with the Edmonds-area dynamos as a jewel in their crown. He added that he was proud of how his team played in both their wins and losses.
"Our girls showed a lot of character," he said.

Several students that were attending, and did attend previously, stated how having the College so close to home gave them the chance to go back and upgrade when they normally would not have due to the distance to travel. One student stated how she truly loved attending and was very upset to learn that the doors were closing for good.
"Only the Adult Basic Education program closed," stated Roger Hulan, College of North Atlantic-Communication Specialist.
"Our continuing education and contract training initiatives are ongoing. The college's programming decisions are based on demonstrated community needs and fiscal responsibility and there was no need for the ABE program as determined by a lack of interest in the area."
The college felt this was because they had met the required need for the time being. The CNA feels it responds well to demonstrated community needs and if such a need arises they will certainly consider it as part of our future programming.
"There were no full-time students in regular attendance in the ABE program and all our campuses and programs are accessible to anyone in the province," stated Mr. Hulan.
There were a total of 11 people attending the College based here in St. Alban's and taking different courses. According to Mr. Hulan, the CAN has been functioning St. Alban's for the last four years and in the Coast of Bays approximately 10 years.
"We will continue to benefit the Coast of Bays through our Continuing Education and Contract Training initiatives – such as the programs we have offered in Gaultois, Hermitage, Harbour Breton, and Conne River during the past three years," stated Mr. Hulan.

K9 and Company |
A Girl's Best Friend was a single-episode story produced in 1981 as a pilot for a potential Doctor Who spin-off called K9 and Company.
The BBC chose not to commission a new series, but did televise the episode as a holiday season special. It was only the second story of this kind in the Doctor Who franchise, preceded by more than a decade by "The Feast of Steven", a Christmas Day "break" from The Daleks' Master Plan.
This was the only attempt at a spin-off series during the original run of Doctor Who to reach production. It would be more than a quarter-century until this was attempted again. Furthermore, its studio filming was unusually completed at Pebble Mill Studios in Birmingham — making it one of only two stories of the "classic" era (the other being TV: Horror of Fang Rock) to have the bulk of its studio recording completed outside Greater London.
It is common for this episode to be referred to only by the series title, K9 and Company, including its initial release on home video and in the Target Books novelisation.
Contents |
Synopsis Edit
Sarah Jane Smith is looking forward to a quiet Christmas with her aunt Lavinia in the sleepy village of Moreton Harwood. When she arrives, she finds her aunt missing and a surprise gift from an old friend waiting to be opened.
Sarah, K9 and her aunt's ward, Brendan Richards, are caught up in the affairs of a mysterious cult who practise the black arts and are preparing for a human sacrifice.

References Edit
Individuals Edit
- Brendan Richards, Lavinia's ward, attends Wellington College but hopes to convince Lavinia to allow him to attend the local comprehensive school in Moreton Harwood as he did not like boarding. He has a close friend at Wellington named Travis, whose father is in the market gardening business. He is taking three extra O-Levels: Additional Maths, Physics and Biology.
- Brendan has a keen interest in computer technology. Consequently, he is extremely impressed by K9 Mark III's computational abilities. Although the original K9 unit was built by Professor Marius in the year 5000, he is nevertheless familiar with many of the components used in his construction.
The Doctor Edit
- The Doctor sent K9 to Sarah in 1978. He had been in an unopened box in her Aunt Lavinia's homes in South Croydon and Moreton Harwood for three years.
- K9 plays on the running gag regarding the Doctor's name and the title of the parent series when Brendan asks, "Who is the Doctor?" and K9 replies, "Affirmative."
K9 Edit
- K9 announces himself as "Mark III", referencing the previous two versions of K9 (last seen in The Invasion of Time and Warriors' Gate, respectively) and in particular differentiating himself from the version last seen with Romana.
Story notes Edit
- This was the first official Doctor Who spin-off; the second was Torchwood, and the third was The Sarah Jane Adventures. K9 is featured in all but Torchwood. In 2009 K9, a TV series, was produced, but unlike Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures this was not produced or licenced by the BBC.
- The Sarah Jane Adventures debuted with its pilot episode, TV: Invasion of the Bane, only three days after the twenty-fifth anniversary of the original broadcast of this pilot.
- The Winter Hill transmitter in the North West region suffered a power blackout at the time this story was screening (most likely resulting in ratings lower than expected).
- The theme music was composed by Ian Levine. Supposedly, it was meant to be an orchestral score but was altered to be electronically performed with John Leeson "singing" in character as K9.
- Running fifty minutes, this was the first time a Doctor Who-related episode had exceeded thirty minutes in length.
- The original outline by John Nathan-Turner proposed that K9 Mark III was in fact sent by and under the control of the Master, but this element never made it to the screen.[1]
- There is some significance in the names writer Terence Dudley gave his characters. One couple is named Baker, the name of Fourth Doctor actor Tom Baker.
- Peter is seen polishing his crash helmet with Mr. Sheen, a proprietary brand of furniture polish often used by motorcyclists. This is an unusual example of a product's brand name being clearly visible in a BBC drama.
- This story had the working titles of Sarah and K9 and One Girl and Her Dog.
- Although Brendan's age is never stated in dialogue, he is said to be fourteen years old in the subsequent novelisation, PROSE: K9 and Company.
Ratings Edit
- 8.4 million viewers
Filming locations Edit
- Cirencester in the Gloucestershire countryside.
- Pebble Mill Studios in Birmingham
- Sheepscombe, Gloucestershire
- Wishanger Farm, Wischanger, Gloucestershire
- Parish Church, North Woodchester, Gloucestershire
- Barnsley House, Barnsley, Gloucestershire
- Cheltenham Road, Bisley, Gloucestershire
- Miserden Park Estate, Miserden, Gloucestershire
- Miserden Nurseries, Gloucestershire
- Miserden, Gloucestershire
- Bear Inn, Bisley, Gloucestershire (Title sequence; Sarah typing on a typewriter)
Production errors Edit
- When Sarah Jane and K9 go out to look for Brendan in Sarah's car, Sarah leaves her aunt's house when it is dark and arrives at the Church in the dark, but the intervening driving scene is in daylight.
Continuity Edit
- At the time of her first meeting with the Doctor, then in his third incarnation, Sarah Jane was impersonating her aunt Lavinia to gain access to a top secret UNIT scientific research facility. (TV: The Time Warrior)
- Lavinia tells Juno Baker that Sarah Jane is "never in one place long enough to lick a stamp." Sarah Jane would describe her aunt with the same phrase to her son Luke Smith in 2009. (TV: The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith)
- K9 is referred to as "Mark III" in this story because he is actually the third robot dog of the same configuration owned by the Fourth Doctor. The first K9 chose to stay with Leela on Gallifrey (TV: The Invasion of Time) whereas K9 Mark II was forced to stay with Romana in E-Space due to being damaged by time winds (TV: Warriors' Gate).
- K9 joined the Doctor after Sarah had left so she had not met any version of the robot dog prior to this. (TV: The Invisible Enemy)
- Sarah once more has a problem driving due to tractors. (TV: Planet of the Spiders)
- Upon discovering K9, Sarah Jane says "Doctor, you didn't forget." Among the last words that she said to him before leaving the TARDIS were "Don't forget me." (TV: The Hand of Fear)
- In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Brendan studied at the University of Cambridge. (PROSE: Housewarming) His computer skills eventually led to him getting a job in Silicon Valley, near San Francisco. He was unable to attend Lavinia's funeral as a result of his work in California. (AUDIO: Comeback)
Home video releases Edit
- A Girl's Best Friend was released on BBC Video on 7 August 1995.
- It was released along with TV: The Invisible Enemy (in which K9 was introduced) on DVD as part of the K9 Tales box set on 16 June 2008.

Posted by: Mark Marich on March 26, 2012 Source: Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship
While the Senate approved the JOBS Act late last week, it attached an amendment that requires House approval before the legislation makes it to President Obama to be signed into law. However, the amendment—which increases investor protections in crowdfunding—is not enough to derail the hugely popular legislation which is expected to sail through the House easily this week.
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act—a package of six bills that would make it easier to launch and grow startups—originated in the House and is supported by the Administration.
The amendment added last week by the Senate requires startups receiving crowdfunding to provide financial statements to investors, limits the total a company can raise via the method to $1 million and requires crowdfunding sites to register with the SEC. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor promised a quick vote.
While the crowdfunding measures attract all the attention, the Act also provides for limits on Sarbanes-Oxley requirements for "Emerging Growth Companies"—reducing the cost of going public for startups and small firms.

The added flexibility in our Gravity Edition will absorb the impact of the chains. Great for beginners or experienced professionals. Gravity Edition plastic is offered in our putters and mid-ranges.
The Pro's tip on the Gravity Edition: Gravity Edition is definitely a softer, more flexible plastic for Legacy Discs. Many putters out there truly appreciate the softer feel, leading to more confidence out of the hand and into the chains. This plastic also tends to be slightly less stable than our stiffer Protégé Edition plastic supporting a softer touch around the chains.

Career Services
Preparing you to harness the power of your Christendom education.
While it is true that liberal education is not judged by its "utility"—knowledge that is truly liberal is an end in itself—a liberal education is compatible with the pursuit of many careers. The College recognizes its duty to assist students in their preparation for a career, be it a career as a professional, or a "career" as a mother or as a religious. The Career Development Office exists to fulfill this responsibility.
A Christendom education equips students with many skills and assets employers find attractive. Trained to think, to reason, to analyze critically, and to communicate effectively, Christendom students find myriad opportunities in the professional world. And they find that their education has prepared them to succeed on the standardized tests which open the doors to law, business, medical, and graduate school. Among many other schools, alumni have pursued graduate studies at the Angelicum (Rome), Catholic University, the Dominican House of Studies, Fordham, the University of Notre Dame, St. Louis University, and the University of Virginia (Graduate School and School of Law).
The Career Development Office has a two-pronged strategy for career planning. The fall is "Career Exploration Semester." Guests representing different professional careers in government, the Church, and the private sector are invited to campus for open sessions with students. "Vocations Day" also occurs in the fall. This is a vocations fair, similar to a job fair, where representatives of dozens of religious orders visit campus to provide information for the students.
The second semester is "Job Placement Semester." The Office offers seminars on resume and cover letter writing, on interviewing, and on other job search-related topics. Students can turn to the Job Bank, which operates year-round and lists job openings and internship notices from all over the country as they come to the attention of the College.
Throughout the year, students may visit the office for a look at many reference books and directories; for individual counseling; for information on graduate work; or for a turn on the Career Mapper Inventory.
Visit the Career Services Website for more information.

West Coast producers of flat-rolled steel that pushed through $20- to $40-a-ton price hikes for January now appear likely to roll next month's prices into February, according to market sources.
The region's two major producers of carbon sheet products told customers that January prices will essentially be carried over into the following month, although they have suggested they're likely to go for increases in March if there's no deterioration in the market.
In contrast, large mills in the East and Midwest have announced hikes of $30 a ton on top of January hikes of $30 to $40 a ton.

The muddle we're hearing out of Washington these days on issues such as torture and the Wall Street collapse is based on the seriously crossed wires between conservative and liberal ideas of accountability. We're all using the same words, but we're also all hearing very different things. Given that, we need to be very concerned that the Democrats, as the liberal party, have apparently completely forgotten how our liberal system of laws is supposed to work.

Change The World With Charity Miles
- By Kara Deschenes
- Published Jun. 13, 2012
- Updated Mar. 7, 2013 at 8:23 PM UTC
What if changing the world was as easy as lacing up your shoes and heading out for a run? What if we told you, there's an App for that? Charity Miles is a new App that empowers you to earn money for charity while running, biking or walking (and it won't cost you a cent!).
Available on the iPhone and Android platforms, this app deserves download priority. To take advantage of this powerful tool, all you need to do is:
- Download the App on your iPhone or Android phone.
- Activate your account by choosing the charity you want to donate to (like Feeding America and Habitat for Humanity).
- Login into the App and go for a run.
- At the end of your run, complete the workout on the App and voila! – your miles are logged and the donation is made (at no cost to you!)
Runners and walkers earn 25¢ per mile, while bikers earn 10¢ per mile. You can make a difference without reaching into your own pocket – all you have to do is run!
We love that Charity Miles allows users to make a statement, raise awareness, and show commitment to a cause. After all, "changing the world is a team sport."
Check out this video to learn more about Charity Miles now:
If you could add any charity to the Charity Miles App, which one would you choose?

In recent years, there has been an ever increasing demand for organic products, particularly for organic baby products. Parents of course want the best for their babies and organic baby stores in Pleasant Ridge stock everything they need to keep their bundles of joy happy and healthy.
Pleasant Ridge organic baby stores sell goods that aren't created using toxins and chemicals. So the biggest benefit of organic baby products is that they're healthier and have a reduced risk of causing side effects like allergic reactions.
Eco-conscious parents also enjoy the fact that organic baby products are also better for the earth. Cotton used to create fabric for organic baby clothes, for instance, are not treated with chemicals and insecticides that affect much more than the cotton crop.
Products in Pleasant Ridge Organic Baby Stores
As more parents discover the importance of choosing organic, more and more organic baby products are cropping up in stores across the . Today, parents can purchase an organic option for almost anything.
Popular organic baby products include:
- Baby clothes
- Toys
- Baby food
- Bedding
- Bath products
- Diapers
- Lotions and Creams

Providers can only label their baby products organic once they've gained organic certification. One important thing to remember is that unlike organic products, 'all natural' products are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. Parents that are contemplating an 'all natural' product need to carefully look over the ingredients and/or label to determine whether an organic option is a better choice.
Well Known Organic Baby Stores in Pleasant Ridge
Burt's Bees is a popular line of personal organic products, including organic baby products. Burt's Bees products can be purchsed in major stores across the U.S. such as Target.
Baby Earth is an online organic baby store that features all natural and organic baby products from numerous companies.
Whole Foods Market has been a leading provider of organic products since 1980, and there's no shortage of organic baby products in their stores.
The Organic Consumers Association and the Organic Information Center are also wonderful resources for researching various organic products and services, including organic baby stores.
Investing in organic products, particularly food and hygiene products, when children are in the initial stages of development is an investment worth making. As organic baby products grow in popularity parents can expect to find more local and online organic baby stores in Pleasant Ridge to shop at and more affordable prices as well.

my phone makes a noise when the battery is low ( as most phones do) when I put it on charge, it makes an annoying sound when the battery is full, and tells me to unplug the charger. this wakes me up. if i put the phone on silent, it vibrates instead. even if i switch vibrate off. this wakes me up too. ive looked for settings or apps to disable this....... it seems to be not possible. help! |

You're not really supposed to leave you charger plugged in when the battery is full. However download volume control by core code you should be able to mute 'everything' with it. Give that a try

Whilst it may use a little electricity I wouldn't say you are not supposed to leave it plugged in. |

Unfortunately, most, if not all, Samsung Galaxy phones are like this. Believe me, I know - I had a Samsung Galaxy S (now a Note), and I did the same thing, looking all over the internet for a solution but could not find one at the time.
The only thing I can suggest is, short of charging the phone in a different room from where you're sleeping, is to cover/muffle the phone so it does not disturb you. The sound/light only goes on for a few seconds. I hope that helps a bit. |

thanks but i need to keep the phone in the same room as me because its also my alarm clock for the mornings!
I looked at some of the volume control apps... but the problem is that my phone still vibrates because I put it on silent mode overnight (even with vibration turned off!) there are SO many people complaining about it all over the internet!!! why can Samsung not listen to their customers and give us an option to disable this notification! |

Many people won't notice this, and it probably won't matter to many people. But for optimum battery life you should unplug when reaching one hundred percent. |

The S2 did that with gingerbread but it's been disabled in ICS.....Wait for the Ace2 to get ICS and it will be cured.
The phones don't hurt being left on charge as they are programmed to manage themselves. |

I overnight charge an s2 on gingerbread (don't want ics as I know it breaks some apps I use). I have llama from the play store, to make the phone silent from midnight to 7am, never been woken by a notification, from the battery or otherwise.

I use a timer plug with a multi-gang extension for my phone/tablet/mp3 player etc. Works perfectly for all sorts of tech gear
I set it so that it switches on about 5a.m. for a couple of hours (your mileage may vary), charges the phone & anything else, then switches off again before I get up in the morning. Yes, my Samsung Note still lets me know it's done but I can ignore that if it's on vibrate. |

I leave mine plugged in overnight. The phones manage the charge so no damage is done to either it or the battery.

I'm pleased I read this thread. I was already 95% decided on a One X as my next phone, and this is helping push up the score! I always charge my phone overnight and I also use it as my alarm clock. Samsung need to rethink this 'feature'.

I use my s2as an alarm too, this isn't an issue. Use an app and make it silent & vibration off overnight. You can make certain contacts bypass this too, if you're worried about missing an important call in the middle of the night. The alarm can override the silent setting also.

I appreciate a warning beep in the middle of the night is annoying, and as a consumer there should be something you can do to stop it, but I just to settle something.....
Samsung's "unplug the charger at 100%" policy means THE CHARGER should be unplugged from it's socket as it will always draw a little power even if it is not charging the phone. This is advised for environmental, power saving, concerns. It is nothing to do with battery damage. The manual even states "To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not in use to avoid wasting power. The device should remain close to the electric socket while charging." With regard over charging, the only reference is in the safety guide, which states "Avoid charging your device for more than a week, as overcharging may shorten battery life." Do you hear that Internet scaremongers? A WEEK!! That article quoted above is pure BS designed to sell stuff. |

text: My Tradere OC is my favorite razor, and the Tradere handle is my favorite safety razor handle, so I bought a handle alone also. I like for the center of gravity to be down in the handle, and I like for the tip of my small finger to rest on the end of the handle, so the length and weight of this handle is perfect for my hand and the heads I use. The idea of a lighter and shorter handle doesn't thrill me. I will buy the SB, but I would prefer to buy a head assembly for the current handle, and hope Tradere will remember that "ideal" weight distribution only exists in one place, and that's in the mind of each individual user. It is a purely subjective evaluation. The popularity of bulldog handles right now is proof of that. I would have preferred they offer a "bulldog" version of their handle alongside the current version, and let the market decide what it wants.

Post subject: Rum Review: Ron Aniversario Cartavio Cinco (5) Anos
Ron Aniversario Cartavio Anejo Cinco (5) Anos: "Fresh Baked Vanilla Ginger Cake, aka A Lovely Leather Lady"
Just about the time the Queen of Rum offered to copromote the first ever Fort Lauderdale Rum Fest with my dear Sue Sea, she asked if we wouldn't mind heading down to South Beach to a luxury hotel to attend a Cartavio presentation of their line of rons. "Another Ron," said Sue Sue laughingly, "where did all these guys come from?". Despite the fact that valet parking costs an arm and a leg in the stratosphere of Hollywood East, this sounded like just too much fun in the service of our then commadre.
So off we went.
Ron Cartavio comes from the South American country of Peru(!), distilled and bottled by Destilerias Unidas S.A.C., established in 1929. The company was taken over in 1968 by the State of Peru and merged into the state company of the Sociedad Paramonga Ltda. (S.P.L.). In 1994 Paramonga was once again privatized into the company Industrial Cartavio S.A., which became the instant company, Destilerias Unidas S.A.C. once again, in 2001.
The modern Cartavio offers a broad portfolio of molasses rums, some solera aged, cream rums, vodka, scotch and - not surprisingly in Peru - Pisco. Ron Cartavio Aniversario Anejo 5 Anos was first released in 1994, the 75th anniversary of the original founding of the company, and celebrating the return of the company from the state.
The tasting took place at the magnificent Delano Hotel in the Florida Room. Think 30 foot cathedral ceiling, huge oversized modern furniture (think a loveseat with a 10 foot high back), gaslights and mirrors everywhere. If you fart an attendant will rush to fan your ass. I'm serious. And of course, world class Florida models striding to and fro.
Strike the pose.
The tasting was attended by a goodly number of rum promoters and distributers, including our, uh, good friend Robert Burr and his son Rob. Let it be said our relationship with these two is rather curious. We've always treated Robert with great respect. On the other hand he remains torn by his business relationship with the Preacher who reportedly fumes at even hearing my name. I have little doubt that this contradiction causes him to wonder about me as I do about him.
It didn't help when arriving late I - totally innocently I assure you - I honestly mistook his son for a waiter and asked him to get us some glasses. He stomped off and we never did get our glasses, from him anyway.
Well! But as always, I digess, lol. The reviews.
Sue Sea
Ron Aniversario Cartavio 5 Anos comes in a classic rectangular whiskey bottle, with a fine faux aged, old world label. Very attractive. The bottle also features a silver label proclaiming its silver medal, 2009 San Francisco award.
Cartavio 5's Anos aroma presents first as leather, then with a citrus orange, vanilla sweetness, a wispy high lemon and clove spice throughout. Background of molasses. Like better rums these are so well blended that I do them injustice by isolating these elements.
The front palate is a sweet spicy honey. The spice develops, along with cacao, gingerbread and clove. Very consistent. The finish is bold and warm and moves into a hot white pepper. I was left with a delicious gingerbread aftertaste.
I must say that Ron Anversario Cartavio is totally balanced from beginning to end. It reminds me of a freshly baked, rich gingerbread or spice cake served and eaten warm. Cartavio is quite lovely in all cases, but would also be a wonderful introduction for those new to rum.
A lovely rum, very approachable, and like all better rums makes you want to drink more and explore, at least a little. It is a "creeper", be careful not to drink too much!
At the Cartavio tasting we had the opportunity to taste their entire line, from the Blanco all the way through to their aged solera XO. Interestingly the rum that got the most interest was this one - Ron Aniversario Cartavio Anejo 5 Anos.
More about this later.
Carvavio 5 Anos was a gemstone clear, brillian medium dark amber, bordering on mahogany. Rich and beautiful. My initial nosing found a high vanilla and white citrus(I like to start high), over a sweet medium fruit (think orange), a light clove spice - all over a background of a mild tarry leather. On reflection I found Sue Sea's cacao, indeed later it caused me to break out our Ron Matusalem Gran Reserva (see postscript). The front palate presented as a light sweet honey, moving into a deep orangey cacao, and ending with a clovey leather and cacao.
The finish was a slightly astringent black pepper heat that quickly transitioned into a nice white pepper, chest and lip modest finish - leaving a hot/sweet orangey leather aftertaste. Not bad at all!
Cartavio 5 Anos is very smooth, very drinkable and I believe will be Cartavio's best seller. Indeed, this was the consensus of those attending.
Rating (10 is best): Sue Sea - 8, Jimbo - 7
Based on the cacao I was caused to break out our Ron Matusalem Gran Reserva. Sue Sea then requested I bring out her reference standard, Richard Seales Ten Year. I countered with my own Mount Gay Extra Old. So there!
Of the four the MGXO, as always, stands alone impresses with its rich depth and amazing complexity. Seales Ten Year, as always, impresses with its light sophistication. Last - and I must be honest - were it not for Ron Matusalem Gran Reserva the Cartavio 5 Anos might have been better regarded.
Still, it remains a very fine younger rum.

Teen bound over for trial in alleged mass school shooting plot
BY LAURA SUMMERS World Correspondent
Thursday, February 21, 2013
2/21/13 at 11:41 AM
BARTLESVILLE– An 18-year-old BartlesvilleHigh Schoolsenior was bound over for trial Thursday on a charge of plotting a mass school shooting after a preliminary hearing that included testimony on notes he had written saying he was becoming "comfortable" with the idea of killing.
After hearing testimony from three police officers and a high school student, Special Judge John Gerkin found there was probable cause to bind over for trial Sammie Eaglebear Chavez on a charge of planning, attempting or conspiring to perform an act of violence with the intention of causing serious bodily harm or death to other students. He remains jailed with a $1 million bond.
The Washington County District Attorney's Office entered as evidence in the case notes that were found by police in Chavez pocket when he was arrested.
Bartlesville Police Officer Jacob Moran read aloud part of the notes in which Chavez talks about thoughts of killing or hurting someone making him smile.
"How many times must the freaks or nerds or punks or geeks shoot up a school before they let us express ourselves without ridiculing us…" Chavez states in the notes. "Those who deserve to die will be killed. Those that don't know our cause will be forced to witness it."
Tyler White, a Bartlesville High student, testified of sitting in the cafeteria on Dec. 12 at a table with Chavez who was outlining "a plan to shoot up the high school. They would lock the doors and get everyone to the auditorium."
He testified Chavez was planning to have an announcement over the intercom to get classmates to the high school auditorium and then to begin shooting after the doors were locked with chains and pipe bombs would be placed by the exits.
Chavez was arrested by Bartlesvillepolice at 4:50 a.m.Dec. 14 on a warrant after an investigation into concerns brought by students to school administrators concerned about the cafeteria conversation. When police arrested Chavez they found in his pocket the notes detailing thoughts about killing students. The notes were dated Dec. 3, 4, 5 and 6, 2012.
Bartlesville Police Lt. Kevin Ickleberry testified his search of Chavez home turned up a Marlin model 99 M1 .22-caliber semi-automatic rifle that was located just inside the front room beside the couch.
Ickleberry also took several photographs of what Chavez's mother called "the murder table." On the table the word "murder" was carved repeatedly along with several dates. Ickleberry told the court when he researched the dates, information about school shootings and mass shootings turned up.
Gerkin agreed to a request from District Attorney Kevin Buchanan to adjust the charge against Chavez to include a section of law that addresses planning violence as well as one that includes acts of violence.
Chavez will return to court March 27 for formal arraignment.

What's new in the Caribbean? Funny, we've been wondering the same thing.
Turks and Caicos
Another perfect Aman resort, their first in the Caribbean. What's the best part? The ocean at the foot of your bed? The elegant design and unobtrusive staff? The insane beauty and heavenly silence? You'll pay a month's rent per night, and you'll wish you could stay forever.
Jade Mountain,
at Anse Chastanet, St. Lucia
A just opened resort-within-a-resort (at an already incredible eco-meets-luxury treetop enclave). Suites have one wall missing, so they look out to a private infinity pool and beachside mountains. The adjoining spa suites and resto Jade Mountain Club have equally jaw-dropping views.
Little Dix Bay,
Virgin Gorda
How do you improve upon Mother Nature's already-perfect 500 acres on a long stretch of white sand? You start with a five-year, $25 million renovation and throw in waterfront villas, a cliff spa, a kids' club, and beach drops — wherein you sail to a private island for the afternoon. And then, well, you can't remember needing much else.
The Cove Atlantis,
A gargantuan — but sophisticated — answer to Atlantis will have 600 suites with unobstructed views of lily ponds and beaches, plus high-tech perks. Opening early 2007, they promise speedy room service and an adults-only pool (with gambling and private cabanas). At night, the lobby gets its own turndown service with club-like lighting.

The toughest decision that lawyers, in-house or otherwise, help clients make is whether to impose the employment-law equivalent of capital punishment: termination of an employee.
