An Arizona State University student who was teaching math at Tempe High School is now facing sexual misconduct charges.
Tempe police say they arrested 26-year-old Joel
Calderon last week after learning about a possible relationship between
him and a female student at Tempe High. Police were initially contacted
by school administrators.
According to authorities, Calderon used social media to get to know the underage girl and that the two had sex multiple times at his home. Sgt. Michael Pooley says Calderon admitted to the inappropriate relationship with the 16-year-old student during an interview.
Court documents say the alleged instances of sexual
contact happened in early November and that Calderon was fired from his
Calderon is facing six counts of sexual conduct with a minor. It's not immediately clear if he has an attorney.
Only one alleged victim has been identified at this time. Pooley says the investigation is ongoing, and there's a possibility of additional charges.
If you have any information about this case, call the Tempe Police Department at 480-350-8311.

The Korean Products That Our Editors Are Crushing On
If you're a regular reader of the Birchbox blog, you've probably heard us recount our deep love for Asian beauty products in the last few years. One of the first brands that we turn to for innovative Asian skincare is Dr. Jart+. The Korean line made its way over to the US a few years ago, and their BB creams (along with many other products) have been a big hit ever since.
A few months ago, the Birchbox editors had a chance to try out a few of Dr. Jart+'s more inventive products—and two of them swept us off our feet. Take a peek below to find out which hydrating and skin-clearing super-troopers editors Lorelei and Candice are crushing on.
Water Fuse Water-Max Sleeping Mask
Dr. Jart+'s Sleeping Masks fall squarely into the category of products I never imagined I'd need. But since Candice passed along this Sleeping Mask for me to try, it's taken a prime placement in my evening skincare regimen. I have very dry skin but sadly also tend to slack when it comes to making time for serums and masks that will truly hydrate my skin. So a product that hydrates and refreshes skin, plus does its work while I'm getting my beauty rest, is almost too good to be true.
All you need are a few pumps of the mask applied on your face and neck in the evening before you hit the hay. The lightweight, gel-like formula soaks into my skin quickly, leaving it feeling soft—never sticky. A blend of natural oils including lavender, sandalwood, and chamomile provide a soothing fragrance—I like to take a few deep breaths after applying for a mini aromatherapy session. While you sleep, hyaluronic acid in the mask boosts your skins moisture while cranberry extract increases elasticity. In the morning, rinse and say hello to a happier, hydrated complexion!
Black Label Detox Pore Penetrator
I have such an oily complexion that during the muggy New York summers my pores always get extra clogged. (Read: eww, blackheads!) While Biore pore strips will always have a special place in my cabinet, lately I've been using the Pore Penetrator to clear up and tighten my pores instead since it's way gentler on my skin. (No painful peeling required).
Spread a small amount of this gel on your skin and then let it sit for 5-10 minutes. The formula's grapefruit and willow bark extracts will sink deep into your pores, helping to clear them of dirt, sebum and dead skin cells. The final step to getting rid of the debris sitting near the top of your skin is to rub in upward circular motions, and very soon you'll actually start to see little pieces of waste forming as you scrub. (Sounds gross, but it totally works at clearing out all that gunk!)
For more from Dr. Jart+, check them out in the Birchbox Shop!

blink-182: '94-'12
So people seemed to really miss Cheshire Cat and thought I excluded it by accident. I just didn't have a concept for it when I'd posted these originally. But seeing how popular it has become, I got off my ass and got Cheshire Cat finished. I had a little fun with the original demo releases and also created a few alternative styles. Check that post out here.

WHAT: The Drug Enforcement Administration is gearing up to lead a cloud-based mapping initiative.
WHY: The DEA is planning a cloud-based version of a geospatial information system dubbed eGIS, which brings together mapping tools from Google Earth Enterprise and ESRI ArcGIS mapping. Currently, the DEA is hosting the tool in an on-premise data center, but there are plans afoot to establish a hybrid cloud environment that would allow federal, state, and local governments to use the DEA's mapping tool.
The agency published a "sources sought" request to seek guidance from vendors about possible solutions, design and architecture for a FISMA-moderate, FedRAMP-approved cloud, including info on security, scalability, disaster recovery and capacity. DEA is seeking feedback from vendors with hybrid cloud experience and a background in FISMA-moderate and FISMA-high systems as well as federated ID management, to supply access to credentialed federal, state and local users. The DEA is also looking for materials to train users on the GIS system.

Middle school honors night canceled for 'devastating' impact
A middle school principal in Ipswich is being criticzed for canceling the school's traditional honors night ceremony and saying in a letter to parents that it would be "devastating" to some students who didn't make the grade.
Ipswich Middle School Principal David Fabrizio recently wrote a letter to parents informing them of the canceled event, according to WFXT.
"The Honors Night, which can be a great sense of pride for the recipients' families, can also be devastating to a child who has worked extremely hard in a difficult class but who, despite growth, has not been able to maintain a high grade point average," Fabrizio wrote.
However, since the letter was sent out, Fabrizio has said he plans to acknowledge the students during a year-end event in front of the entire student body. He defended the change in comments made to the Ipswich Chronicle.
"This isn't the dumbing down of America. This isn't everyone getting a trophy. The same kids who were honored before are being honored now," he said.

How to Text from a Computer to a Cell Phone
Two Methods:Use a Messaging ProgramCarrier Domain List
Sending a text from your computer can be useful for reaching friends when you've misplaced your phone. This article provides a useful list of phone email addresses from all major and some minor phone carriers in the US and Canada. It also provides basic instructions on how to find your phone's email address, as well as information on using dedicated messaging programs.
1Determine if you're sending SMS or MMS. An SMS (Short Mail Service) is a standard text message. An MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) is a text with a media attachment, such as picture or video. Some phone companies have a separate email address for SMS & MMS.
- If you are unsure, send your message as an MMS, as this supports just plain text as well.
2Use the recipient's phone number as the beginning of the address. For example if you want to send an SMS from your computer's email to an AT&T phone with the number (614)555-1212, the email address would be firstname.lastname@example.com.
3Find your carrier's domain info. The easiest way to check is to send a text message and then a picture message to your email and that will tell you the phones email address for each. There is a list of the major carrier's messaging domains, followed by an alphabetical list of minor carriers at the end of this article.
Use a Messaging Program
1Download the appropriate app for your phone. For iPhone users, iMessage comes already installed. For Android users, Hangouts (previously known as Talk) comes already installed. These programs allow for messages to be sent to clients on multiple platforms.
- There are also third-party programs that offer similar functionality, such as Skype.
2Run the corresponding program on the computer. To use Hangout on a PC, visit the Hangout website and download the extensions. To use iMessage from your computer, you must be running a Mac with OS X 10.8 or later. You will find the Messages icon in your Dock.
- You will need to sign in with your respective account (Google or Apple ID).
3Send your message. Select the contact from the list or type in a name to search. You can enter your own name to send a message to yourself.

La Posada is located at 303 E. Second Street in Winslow. For more information, call 928-289-4366 or visit laposada.org.

Mary Jane's MasterpieceWhen Mary Jane Colter's La Posada opened in 1930, it was a manor in the middle of nowhere. Today, it's a stunning tribute to romance, history and the Harvey Girls.
By Bruce Itule
Winslow Coffee's on at 6 a.m. at La Posada in Winslow, the Spanish hacienda/hotel created by Southwestern architect Mary Jane Colter, who a century ago designed buildings along the Santa Fe Railway for the Fred Harvey Co.
Often called Colter's masterpiece, La Posada was in full bloom from its opening in 1930 to the '50s, when Route 66 on its north side and the Santa Fe Railway on its south brought travelers to Winslow.
On this morning, only a few overnighters have been lured by the coffee's aroma. Outside, birds have started their concert. South of the hotel, Interstate 40 — which morphed Winslow from gettin' your kicks to out in the sticks — is beginning to hum.
Slowly, people walk out of La Posada's main entrance, which faces the railroad tracks. A New Yorker in a yellow T-shirt with "I sunk your battleship" silk-screened onto it greets a groundskeeper and says, "I like to see the trains."
He and the others are not disappointed. Just before 6:30 a.m., a freighting monster ushered by an orange and yellow BNSF locomotive arrives. Next up is the eastbound Amtrak Superliner, which is on its way to Chicago but rests in front of La Posada long enough for two passengers to get off and eight to get on.
Trains no longer linger in Winslow, but plenty of the giants rumble past La Posada and delight railroad watchers. The westbound Amtrak will stop this evening.
When there's a lull, it's easy to sit back in one of the grand public spaces and recall The Harvey Girls, the 1946 movie starring Judy Garland as Susan Bradley, who on a train trip west meets and then joins a crew of young women headed for jobs at a remote stop to provide good cooking for railway travelers.
La Posada was once a romantic Spanish manor with 70 guestrooms, but it never prospered and eventually closed to the public in 1957. In the 1960s, the building was gutted and served as Santa Fe Railway offices for three decades.
Allan Affeldt and his artist wife, Tina Mion, whose bold work is displayed throughout the hotel, purchased the 20-acre property in 1997, and with a competent staff are slowly bringing it back to life.
Thirty-seven rooms have been restored and more will be finished soon. Rates range from $99 for a standard to $149 for a suite. Hacienda furnishings are scattered throughout, and the guestrooms are named for celebrities who once stayed here.
The Turquoise Room restaurant, adjoining the hotel, still offers terrific food for travelers, but it's served by men and women. Like passenger trains, the Harvey Girls have moved on.

"No More Bumpy Nose - Miami, FL"
I was never the kind of woman who praises plastic surgery but working for a beauty product company and seeing flawless faces all the time made me so insecure about the bump of my nose that I researched rhinoplasty and tons of surgeons and realized I'd be better off having the surgery than constantly procrastinating and thinking just how pretty my profile would look without the bump.

Dr. Jeremy White is the absolute best plastic surgeon! I did a lot of searching around when I was deciding who to use for my nose job.

Officers with the Bloomington Police Department confirm that a vehicle belonging to a St. Paul woman who was reported missing was found at the Mall of America on Monday.
Police responded at about 5 a.m. after mall security contacted them to report that a vehicle which had been reported missing was parked on their property.
According to Cmdr. Vic Poyer, with the Bloomington Police Department, security guards located the car in the mall's West Ramp at about 4:55 a.m.
The discovery was made just hours after a "locate vehicle" message had been sent out on Sunday in connection with the disappearance of 30-year-old Kira Trevino, who works at the mall.
Investigators say the vehicle was unoccupied, and Trevino, of St. Paul, remains missing. She was reported missing after she failed to show up for work on Saturday.
Trevino's family told FOX 9 News that her cell phone and purse were discovered in the white 2010 Chevy Cobalt, which was carefully backed into a space in a part of the ramp where she didn't usually park. They added that it struck them as odd since Trevino was not a skilled parker.
Investigators say they will review parking lot surveillance video from outside the ramps; however, there were no cameras inside.
After St. Paul police officers finished processing the scene, the car was towed to the St. Paul Police Department's facility; however, Bloomington police will continue to help with the investigation.
The St. Paul Police Department is asking anyone with information about the vehicle or the missing person's case to call 651-266-5650.

Managing Change
- This Month from the National Dissemination Center
- From Our Friends at the IDEA Partnership
- It All Starts…in Families…and Communities
- The Little Ones: Early Intervention/Early Childhood
- Schools, K-12
- State & System Tools
Change is inevitable – except from a vending machine.
~Robert C. Gallagher
It seems like everything is changing these days—the Elementary and Secondary Education Act is scheduled to be rewritten, proposed regulations for the early intervention (Part C) section of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act are due to be released, schools are adjusting staffing and service delivery in response to state budget constraints and the sunsetting of additional funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). How do we all adjust to so many changes at once?
This month, we're focusing on resources that can help us all keep pace with the many changes impacting early childhood service providers, families, educators, and administrators. We hope these resources are useful to you in your efforts to support quality education for students with disabilities. You never know what will happen next, so wear comfortable shoes, pack a snack in your bag, and be prepared for the next challenge!
As always, we welcome your feedback. Please feel free to contact us at email@example.com.
Our best to you,
Your friends
at the National Dissemination Center
for Children with Disabilities
We are very pleased to share two new resources that educators can put to immediate use in the new school year ahead—
- a new research summary identifying 7 school interventions that really work with students; and
- a companion webpage called Using What Works, which will connect you with more information about those 7 interventions.
Find the research summary at: http://nichcy.org/research/summaries/abstract80
Find Using What Works at: http://nichcy.org/schoolage/effective-practices/meta80resources
Something Else That's New!
Boy, you want to talk about change? The National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities (NICHCY) has a brand-new parent organization! As of July 1, 2011, the non-profit organization formerly known as the Academy for Educational Development (AED) has joined forces with Family Health International (FHI) to become FHI 360. FHI 360 operates from 60 offices with 4,400 staff in the U.S. and around the world. You might notice some minor changes in our email addresses and "About Us" information, but our day-to-day work (including our website address and phone numbers) will not change.
More and more districts are developing Response to Intervention (RTI) practices in order to meet the learning needs of students with and without disabilities. RTI isn't a single, prescribed procedure, but rather the "[p]ractice of providing high quality instruction and interventions matched to student need, monitoring progress frequently to make changes in instruction or goals and applying child response data to important educational decisions." This looks different in each school and district.
To help educators, administrators, and families to better understand and implement RTI practices, the IDEA Partnership has developed a robust collection of resources on the topic, including:
Grounding Assumptions for the resources
Glossary of key terms around the topic of RTI
How to Use this Collection for different stakeholder groups
Beginning Collection for those just beginning RTI implementation, including power point presentations, a facilitator's guide and dialogue guides
Intermediate Collection for those familiar with RTI and undertaking implementation, including power point presentations, a facilitator's guide and dialogue guides
Advanced Collection for those already using tiered interventions for both learning and behavior, including power point presentations, a facilitator's guide and dialogue guides
And more!

Preparing the school for your child with special needs.
Here's your head start for information to send to teachers about your child's special needs.
Physical education — and adapted physical education.
IDEA 2004 requires that students with disabilities be provided with physical education. If your child has a disability and an IEP, the school must provide physical education as part of your child's special education program. Many children benefit from physical education. Read all about PE and adapted PE, at:
Financial resource guide for parents of children with disabilities.
PACER Center, in conjunction with National Endowment for Financial Education, has recently published the online guide , a "simple, straightforward resource" to help families manage money and plan for their financial future.
Family-to-Family Health Information Center.
Another great resource from PACER. The Family-to-Family Health Information Center (F2F HIC) serves as a central source for families of children and young adults with special health care needs and disabilities to obtain support, advocacy, and information about the health care system.
The change from early intervention to preschool.
Early intervention is designed for children from birth up to age three. At that point, services under EI end. If the child will need continued support once he or she moves on to preschool, it's very important to plan ahead so that the transition is smooth. The resources listed on this NICHCY webpage can help you do just that.
Social-emotional issues in early childhood settings.
The spring 2011 issue of includes a special section focused on this topic. Free!
Need info about autism in multiple languages to share with families?

Early Head Start's home-based model.
Thanks to NECTAC for sharing the news that the Office of Head Start recently launched a webpage with information on the Early Head Start (EHS) Home-Based Model, which is one of eight evidence-based home visiting models selected for the Affordable Care Act Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program. The webpage includes an overview of the EHS home-based model, a video entitled and resources for implementing the model.
Preschool special education: Co-teaching and collaboration.
Collaboration increases instructional options and grouping flexibility, reduces stigma for students, boosts professional support, and meets the mandates of IDEA's least restrictive environment.
Last minute reading on important topics.
Since summer isn't quite over yet, teachers may find these resources worth squeezing in before it's time to go back to the classroom.
Resource for lesson plans.
Teachers can browse an array of lesson plans and related resources from high performing teachers. You also can share your resources with this site.
Grading and students with disabilities.
Grading is a complex topic that involves philosophical, pedagogical, and pragmatic issues for all students, and especially for those with disabilities. This introduction to grading will give teachers the research base, teacher tools, and case studies.
Neuroscience and special education.
A new policy analysis from Project Forum at the National Association of State Directors of Special Education discusses how findings from neuroscience are being applied to special education, describes outcomes from the research bridging the two fields, and discusses how institutions of higher education are creating interdisciplinary links between the two. The analysis also profiles three programs currently serving children with disabilities that base their curriculum in part on findings from the field of neuroscience.
Free technology for teachers.
Who can resist?
NEA's back to school guide.
NEA editors have compiled a list of NEA's best articles and resources to help new and veteran teachers get ready for the fall semester.
Changing the way it's done: When general and special educators collaborate.
Research shows that collaboration between general and special educators benefits the quality of instruction and supports for students with disabilities. Here are several resources that give the "why" and "how-to" of collaboration. Just in time, too, for the new school year!
Co-teaching is a method for delivering instruction that draws on the strengths and expertise of multiple educators. This module introduces the many faces of co-teaching relationships, exemplars and non-exemplars of successful co-teaching strategies, approaches for developing co-teaching skills, and opportunities to co-plan lessons. "Academy 1″ focuses on general and special educators working together. From the Equity Alliance at ASU.
Supporting the collective practice of teachers.
It's not just the individual skill of a teacher that raises student outcomes; rather, teachers become better at their craft when they have the space to collaborate with and learn from one another.
Introduction to cooperative teaching.
This intro describes the basics of cooperative teaching, where and when it's used, the research base as to its effectiveness and benefits, and case studies. It will also connect teachers with easy-to-use tools to promote their own collaborations with colleagues.
Collaboration between general and special education: Making it work.
NEA's diversity toolkit.
This online toolkit provides an introduction to the multiple facets of diversity. Chapters include: class and income, cultural competence for educators, English language learners, gender, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity, and social justice.
How to increase student learning time.
Here's a fulsome suite of resources from the Doing What Works initiative. It features elementary schools, increased learning time programs, partnerships, and schools with extended learning day initiatives that successfully implement research-based practices connected to increasing learning time. At the link below, practitioners can learn about the research base for schools and programs seeking to increase student learning time, see how these practices are implemented in schools, and access professional development tools and planning templates to Do What Works.
Youth, families, and educators: Get ready for the change ahead — Adulthood!
Youth with disabilities need to plan ahead for their transition from high school. The law mandates it, in fact! Connect with a wealth of "how-to" information in NICHCY's Transition Suite of nine individual webpages.
Plan ahead to get assistive technology in college.
Is your youth with learning disabilities planning to go to college? Does he or she use assistive technology (AT)? If so, get a jump start on college success by scoping out universities' AT policies and offerings and understanding their rights and responsibilities.
Strategies for building an aligned system for early learning.

- Chicken and Chicken Stock:
- 1 (3 3/4-lb.) whole chicken
- 3 carrots, cut into quarters
- 3 celery ribs, cut into quarters
- 2 yellow onions, cut into quarters
- 3 garlic cloves
- 6 fresh thyme sprigs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Vegetables:
- 1 pound baby turnips, peeled and cut into wedges (about 2 cups)
- 2 carrots, diagonally sliced
- 1 cup assorted fresh mushrooms, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1/2 cup red pearl onions
- 1/2 cup cipollini onions
- 1 medium leek, split and cut into 1-inch pieces
- Chicken Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- Dumplings:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
- Toppings:
- 1/2 cup cooked, diced bacon
- 4 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and quartered
- 1. Prepare Chicken and Chicken Stock: Bring chicken, next 6 ingredients and water to cover to a boil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 45 minutes or until chicken is done. Remove chicken, reserving liquid and vegetables in Dutch oven. Cool chicken 30 minutes; skin, bone, and shred chicken. Reserve bones; loosely cover chicken, and refrigerate until ready to use.
- 2. Place reserved chicken bones into Dutch oven with reserved liquid and vegetables, and cook over medium heat 1 hour. Pour liquid through a wire-mesh strainer into a 3-qt. saucepan, discarding solids. Reserve 1 1/2 qt. chicken stock in saucepan.
- 3. Prepare Vegetables: Bring reserved stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Add turnips, carrots, and mushrooms, and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove from stock. Add red pearl onions and next two ingredients to stock, and cook 7 to 8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove onion mixture from stock, reserving 4 cups stock.
- 4. Prepare Chicken Sauce: Melt butter in a heavy 2-qt. saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, whisk in flour, and cook, stirring often, 10 minutes or until golden. Increase heat to medium-high, and slowly whisk in 4 cups reserved chicken stock until combined. Cook, stirring often, 15 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
- 5. Prepare Dumplings: Pulse flour and next 4 ingredients in a food processor 4 to 5 times or until crumbly. Transfer to a large bowl, and stir in buttermilk and next 3 ingredients, stirring until well blended.
- 6. Assemble Chicken and Dumplings: Preheat oven to 400°. Place shredded chicken and vegetables in a 4-qt. baking dish. Pour Chicken Sauce over chicken and vegetables; top with bacon and eggs.
- 7. Spoon batter by rounded tablespoonfuls over chicken mixture, gently pressing dumplings down into sauce. Bake at 400° for 25 to 30 minutes or until mixture is bubbly and dumplings are golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes.
For a new twist, Chris bakes his Chicken and Dumplings in the oven and in 2 casserole dishes. We tested in a 4-qt. baking dish and it works equally well. For a thicker Chicken Sauce, increase flour and butter by 1 Tbsp.

AoA Provides $80,000 in Disaster Relief to Older
Victims of Fires in California
Department of Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary
for Aging, Josefina G. Carbonell, recently awarded $40,000 to
the California Indian Manpower Consortium, Inc., and $40,000
to the Southern Indian Health Council, Inc. for Presidentially
declared disasters in California, resulting from wildfires in
November 2003.
As an aftermath of the extensive forest fires, the San Ysabel
reservation, which is home to some 250 tribal members—35
of which are age 60 or over, needed reimbursement for their recovery
effort. The San Pasqual reservation was also affected. It is
home to 752 tribal members—83 of which are elderly. Older
persons at these reservations were greatly affected by the fires,
some lost their homes, became ill with smoke inhalation, which
required hospitalization and many needed food, medication, transportation
and shelter.
"AoA disaster relief funds provide critical disaster relief
services and advocacy for older victims," said Josefina
G. Carbonell. "Many seniors living on reservations in the
California area were devastated by the fires that occurred in
November and are in need of food, clothing, water and temporary
housing and heat. AoA's award of these funds will help
the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians and the Southern Indian
Health Council increase their supportive services to older Californians
who need assistance in rebuilding their lives," said Carbonell.
We know that seniors often take a bit longer to recover from
disasters of this magnitude, and we want to be able to provide
needed assistance to help them get back on their feet. Our funding
fills in for services and activities that older people need that
are not provided through other emergency resources," Carbonell
For additional information on AoA's national disaster
preparedness and response activities, please contact Irma Tetzloff
at (202) 357-3525.

Time Portal Opens Over Antarctica Station? 2012 HD
- greyhunter2012
- uploaded: Dec 2, 2012
- Hits: 3289
Very strange phenomena over the Neumayer Station III in Antarctica. Note the absence of the sun or moon etc, this rules out a possible reflective phenomena in my opinion. In the latter half of the video you can clearly see the flux appear or displacement before it forms into in an arch. I have no idea what this is, but whatever it is, its is very unusual. Date of phenomena: 29:11:2012

Heat bloom?
The station and associated buildings are going to be a hell of a lot hotter than the surrounding air...a temperature difference that could cause these effects.

Who am I to say what it really is? It does look like an aurora that is reflecting off of the ice but then again, that could also be what they want us to think.

Oh, thanks GH.

Will put it on the forum to get some opinions before it gets overlooked.

Could be magnetic polar flare caused by the sun when the clouds hits its clean point. and could be aurora light effect as well. but yea ... you decide.

Good Evening
I'm wondering if you can all help me out. I am looking for an episode of Dr Who with Tom Baker in. This means a lot to me as i remember watching this as a small child with my uncle and sadly he passed away on Friday. He has a collection of over 150 Dr Who videos and I just need to know which episode I need to find to bring back my fond memories.
What i can remember is the Dr in a pyrimid with Sarah Jane and they had to go through certain puzzles. I'm sure there was a tiled floor and they had to walk across this only stepping on certain tiles. This then led them out and were able to get back to the tardis. My sister seems to recall the pyrimid being in the desert.
I no its not the "pyrimid of mars" episode as I have this one on DVD.
Your help is much apreciated if you can just narrow a list down for me.

We buy DVDs in the Blu-Ray/DVD combo packs. We like to keep the Blu-Rays in their cases to save in the family room library and keep the DVDs in this small case when we travel. Since the places we go never have Blu-Ray players, we only need to take the DVD disks.

CHICAGO (AP) - Marian Hossa scored two goals, and Kris Versteeg and Bryan Bickell also tallied to lead the Chicago Blackhawks past Anaheim 4-2 on Friday night to end the Ducks' eight-game winning streak and hand them only their second loss in the past 20 games.
Corey Crawford made 19 saves to help the Blackhawks end a five-game losing streak against Anaheim - including three straight in Chicago - and beat the Ducks for the first time since December 2011.
With Chicago cruising 3-0, Anaheim's Ryan Getzlaf scored on a wrist shot to cap an odd-man break with 6:13 left in the third to end Crawford's shutout bid.
Then Kyle Palmieri connected on a 40-foot shot 53 seconds later to make it close before Hossa scored into an empty net with 7.6 seconds left.

Child Hunger
Good nutrition, particularly in the first three years of life, is important for establishing a good foundation that has implications for a child's future physical and mental health, academic achievement, and economic productivity. Unfortunately, food insecurity is an obstacle that threatens that critical foundation. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), 15.9 million children under 18 in the United States live in households where they are unable to consistently access enough nutritious food necessary for a healthy life.[i] Although food insecurity is harmful to any individual, it can be particularly devastating among children due to their increased vulnerability and the potential for long-term consequences.

NFL 2011 Season – Week 11 Recap
NCAA College Football – Week 12 Recap
The day started with Lee Corso letting loose an expletive on 'College Gameday,' and things just got crazier from there. The BCS was officially thrown into chaos as three of the nation's top five teams all went down to defeat. #1 LSU remained in the driver's seat for the title game with another dominating win, but any number of one-loss schools are now back in the mix for the title game. The biggest beneficiary of this week's upsets will likely be #6 Arkansas, who could move as high as #3 when the new polls come out and still have to play LSU, meaning the Razorbacks could control their own destiny for a spot in the national championship game (but, oddly, not for the SEC title game).
Here are all the highlights from this week in the Top 25.

San Francisco 27 – N.Y. Giants 20
Defensive end Justin Smith swatted down an Eli Manning pass to end a potential game-tying drive, as the San Francisco 49ers beat the New York Giants 27-20. Kicker David Akers had four field goals for San Francisco (8-1), which found enough offense to win despite playing most of the game without leading rusher Frank Gore, who suffered a knee injury

Stella's (Second) Signature Scent
Stella McCartney is as hands-on as they come. Rather than remove herself from the pre-presentation hustle and bustle at her Spring show this morning, McCartney was in the thick of it, talking with stylists, exchanging pleasantries with models, and checking in on how the hair and makeup look was progressing. As she passed through a particularly crowded aisle that we happened to be standing in, a fragrant aroma lingered in her wake. "It smells like gardenia," a photographer said to a makeup artist. "It was probably Stella," she responded. We'd be willing to bet that the sweet floral essence that hovered in the tight space was actually lily of the valley, the heart of McCartney's latest fragrance, L.I.L.Y. "It's a pet name my dad had for my mom," McCartney told a room full of editors in New York a few months back of the acronym that stands for Linda I Love You. "He was P.I.L.Y. and I guess that makes me S.I.L.Y.," she joked.
The perfume is a personal one and an ode to one of McCartney's favorite flowers, which she has fond memories of growing up around on the lush, garden-filled farm in Scotland that Paul and Linda's brood called home. The version used here, however—a green, more modern incarnation of a smell that, according to Stella, is "not particularly contemporary"—was masterminded by perfumer Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud, he of McCartney's first signature scent, which debuted in 2003 to rave reviews (and who will reportedly front the newly restored Louis Vuitton fragrance house that will release its premier offering next year). The perfume ultimately exists as a series of contrasts: It boasts a feminine floral tinge that is paired with darker, earthier, more masculine hints of black truffle and oak moss so that there's a dichotomous nature to it, much like McCartney herself. One of the world's most well-known rock progeny, the mother of four could not be more down-to-earth. Even her clothes boast a certain polished but easy wearability that makes her a favorite among the style set's boldest-faced names, as a quick peruse of her front row can attest (devotees like Gwyneth Paltrow and Naomi Watts were not in attendance at Paris' Palais Garnier opera house today, but Kate Moss and Natalia Vodianova sure were). Following a series of limited-edition and seasonal riffs on her eponymous eau over the last nine years, this marks just the second flacon from McCartney to date. It's well worth the wait.

We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Joan Rivers, a true legend in the world of comedy.
"My mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon." – Melissa Rivers
Who was Lenny Bruce?
Lenny Bruce is most often known as a pioneer in the industry but for me he was much more. He was my father. He had a connection with his audience and 42 years later it still exists. My hope for the website is to honor my father and what he stood for.
His undying belief in the first amendment and standing up and speaking about racism and bigotry all the social viruses that existed and still do. This is a different time. We can make a difference and make this a happier kinder and gentler world. He was so funny, Enjoy what you read, see and hear.
With love, Kitty Bruce

America's 5 biggest low-wage employers
Two-thirds of workers earning under $10 an hour work for large corporations. Here are the biggest employers in low-wage industries.
By Trey Thoelcke, Michael Sauter, Alexander E. M. Hess and Samuel Weigley, 24/7 Wall St.
The gap between rich and poor is well illustrated by the large multi-billion-dollar corporations employing thousands of low-wage workers. With the Great Recession over, not only are many of these companies now hitting record profits, but their executive pay remains spectacularly high.
Yet, according to a refport released by the National Employment Law Project, the current federal minimum wage the workers are often paid, is worth 30% less than it was in 1968 in terms of purchasing power.
Two-thirds of low-wage workers -- those that are paid less than $10 an hour -- are employed by large corporations with at least 100 employees reports NELP. All of the largest companies in low-wage industries, including McDonald's (MCD)and Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), have hundreds, even thousands, of stores across the country. Based on NELP's July 2012 report, "Big Business, Corporate Profits, and the Minimum Wage," 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the 12 American companies that pay the least. You'll find the biggest 5 listed below.
These employers fall into one of two categories. They are are either large national restaurant chains employing tens of thousands of cashiers and cooks, or large national retailers, employing tens of thousands of cashiers and salespeople.
At 24/7 Wall St.: 10 brands that will disappear In 2013
In addition to low wages, many of these companies have a history of poor labor relations that extends beyond underpaying their employees. Long hours, unsafe or unpleasant working conditions, limited benefits and restricting access to full-time work, often accompany minimum wage jobs in many of these companies.
The recession has affected every company on this list. Many used the downturn to explain reductions in employee benefits, long hours, and continued low pay. However, the recession is over for a majority of minimum-wage employers. Nine of the 12 companies on this list have been profitable for the past three years. Of these 12 companies, a full ten had higher revenue compared to 2010.
Despite this fact, improvements in employee benefits or an increase in pay have not materialized for workers at most of the companies on the list.
At 24/7 Wall St.: America's most miserable states
Based on the National Law Employment Project's report, 24/7 Wall St. identified the 12 largest companies in industries that are primarily low-wage employers. The report also provided the most recent available data on the total size of the companies' workforces, the recent performance of the corporations in terms of revenue and profit, and the highest executive pay at these companies. 24/7 Wall St. also reviewed revenue, income, and the number of stores from company filings.
These are the companies paying Americans the least.
1. Wal-Mart Stores (WMT)
U.S. workforce: 1,400,000
CEO compensation: $18,131,738
Revenue: $446.95 billion
Net income: $15.70 billion
No. of U.S. stores: 3,868
The labor practices of Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) have long received negative attention in the press, but that has not affected investors much. WMT's share price rose more than 48% in the past five years. In 2008, Walmart agreed to pay $640 million in settlements of dozens of class-action lawsuits that claimed the company deprived workers of pay for time worked. In October a class action lawsuit was filed in a Chicago federal court alleging that the retailer had violated minimum wage and overtime laws. Walmart workers have begun to strike, and some plan to walk off the job on Black Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year. Walmart has filed an unfair-labor-practice complaint against the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union to prevent this from happening.
2. Yum! Brands (YUM)
U.S. workforce: 880,330
CEO compensation: $20,411,852
Revenue: $12.63 billion
Net income: $1.33 billion
No. of U.S. stores: 16,006
Because Yum! Brands (YUM), the operator of the Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC chains, is one of the biggest employers of low wage workers, it takes benefits seriously. According to watchdog group Center for Media and Democracy, the fast food giant co-chaired the labor and business regulation subcommittee of the American Legislative Exchange Council, a "corporate-funded bill mill" that encourages laws that benefits its corporate members. At a 2011 meeting, attendees considered model bills designed to override paid sick leave legislation in the states. In 2012, following negative press over ALEC initiatives and the departure of McDonald's, Wendy's, Yum! Brands became one of several large companies to abandon the council.
3. McDonald's (MCD)
U.S. workforce: 859,978
CEO compensation: $4,073,748
Revenue: $27.01 billion
Net income: $5.50 billion
No. of U.S. stores: 14,098
McDonald's (MCD) is the king of fast-food, with revenue greater than any other restaurant operator on this list, and far more locations as well. The company's website offers a long list of awards and recognition for the diversity of its workplace. But even McDonald's is not immune to economic pressures. The company just reported its first monthly drop in global revenue at locations open more than a year, down 1.8% in October. McDonald's USA president, Jan Fields was subsequently ousted to be replaced by Jeff Stratton, who is currently global chief restaurant officer.
Target (TGT)
U.S. workforce: 365,000
CEO compensation: $19,707,107
Revenue: $69.87 billion
Net income: $2.93 billion
No. of U.S. stores: 1,763
Shortly after competitor Wal-Mart announced that it would open its doors for Black Friday shoppers at 8 p.m. Thursday, Target (TGT) then said that it would also open its doors Thursday night. Employees were not thrilled by the news. One California-based Target worker drafted a petition calling on Target to "save Thanksgiving" and stick to its Friday opening time. More than 220,000 people have signed the petition. Target insists that it took employees into consideration before making the decision to open early. One executive said, "We had so many team members who wanted to work on Thursday that hundreds of our stores are now keeping lists of volunteers who want to work if shifts open up."
5. Sears Holdings (SHLD
U.S. workforce: 264,000
CEO compensation: $9,932,924
Revenue: $41.57 billion
Net income: -$3.11 billion
No. of U.S. stores: 3,510
Many companies like to tout how important their employees are, and Sears Holdings (SHLD) is no different. "Our associates are at the heart of our company and we value teamwork, integrity, and positive energy," says the company's website. Unfortunately for the employees, the operator of Sears and Kmart has struggled in recent years, as evidenced by its recent massive $3.11 billion net loss, despite having revenue of $41.6 billion. In addition, similar to Walmart and Target, Sears and Kmart stores will be open on Thanksgiving for early Black Friday shopping, meaning the employees will have to work this holiday. Sears said it expects holiday hiring to be about the same as a year ago, while Walmart, Toys"R"Us and other retailers increased their seasonal hires.

- Bermie Sanders, July 22, 2012 (PolitiFact rated TRUE)
"Six members of the Walton family appear on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans. Christy Walton, widow of the late John Walton, leads the clan at No. 6 with a net worth of $25.3 billion as of March 2012. She is also the richest woman in the world for the seventh year in a row, according to Forbes. Here are the other five:
No. 9: Jim Walton, $23.7 billion
No. 10: Alice Walton, $23.3 billion
No. 11: S. Robson Walton, oldest son of Sam Walton, $23.1 billion
No. 103: Ann Walton Kroenke, $3.9 billion
No. 139: Nancy Walton Laurie, $3.4 billion
That's a grand total of $102.7 billion for the whole family."
Their wealth came from the work of their employees and the consumers who support them, unless they have their own printing press at the Treasury.
Fact is, as long as the Economy is in the dumper, people will work for whatever they can get. I read all these media article about the recovery, but I don't see it, Obozo has done nothing to to create jobs. The Nation needs work on the infrastructure: Roads Bridges, Railroads, Electric Grid. These would put massive amounts of people to work but nothing has been done, just more give aways and welfare.
And bare in mind, this article lists only the five largest employers there are many more smaller employers that take advantage of their workers and they do so because they can.
Slackers, takers and the lazy need not come to Texas.There are too many jobs here for the state to have a welfare dependency culture like CA, NY, IL. Of course they already know that. It is the ambitious and hard working that come here knowing they will have an opportunity to make a better life for their families. not be bled to death financially by state and local taxes, or be forced to join a union.
If unions are so good, why did they lose half their membership in Wisconsin wirhin weeks of the election there and the court ruled the state does not have to collect union dues from their pay.
Wonder why Caterpillar, GE, Ericcson etc are building plants in Texas? Certainly not in CA and other states with state supported cultures of dependency. There is over $6 billion in hospital constructon in Dallas Fort Worth area alone currently in progress. Housing has rebounded also due to a steady influx of people. people willng to work and qualify for a mortgage, not slackers looking for government housing.
In texas wages are primarily established by supply/demand and skill/knowledge required to do the job.not some phony union contract extorted from companies by the likes of Richard Thug Trumpka..
I know there are other states growing their economy,FL, AL,TB, etc but I live in Texas so i am familiar with what goes on here and I like to contrast it with CA where the only growth is in an increasingly entitlement dependency class.
Also, Texas has no state income tax or tax on food. Property taxes can be relatively high but the Marxists should like that since the succesful have to ante up more to educate the children of the slackers
Dont misunderstand, i have seen busts here before and it could happen again, especially if the current trend in Washington contaminates the states can do will do.environment. However, it will never be as bad as states that have fostered a whole culture of slackers. Makers find a way and if they need help in the short run, they will get it but not indefinitely, not in Texas.
""Let the watchwords of all our people be the old familiar watchwords of honesty, decency, fair-dealing, and commonsense."... "We must treat each man on his worth and merits as a man. We must see that each is given a square deal, because he is entitled to no more and should receive no less." "The welfare of each of us is dependent fundamentally upon the welfare of all of us."
- Teddy Roosevelt, Sept 7, 1903
Lets make this discussion really simple. Sam's club, Costco. Both charge a membership fee. The difference is. With our Costco membership we get cash back which is more than our membership every year. We have a Costco American Express card with no annual fee and cash back also on the card. Costco employees make $12-14 dollars an hour to start and promotions are available to all employees.
Their sales continue to rise and if you have a return there is never a problem. No wonder they are always smiling. Go on the internet and see how few hours they are open. They don't drive their employees into the ground and you never hear an employee complain. There are very few companies that realize the reputation of the company is made by it's employees.
Someone posted a response that Texas has the highest % of min wage jobs. They are jobs and exist only due to the friendly and thriving economy. This is a person that doesnt know what oilfield jobs pay and as far as him/her bragging about SiliconeValley, he hasnt been to Austin.
Also, most of those min wage jobs are held by illegals. They are glad to have them.
If his position were valid, people wouldnt br moving here at the rate of 1000/day. There is the proof.

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Police say three more sisters accused in a theft ring have turned themselves in. A Saint Matthews detective says so far, four sisters and a friend are in custody.
Police say a group of six sisters and a friend would go to doctor's offices and hospitals around Saint Matthews and steal wallets. They would then charge thousands of dollars worth of items on the stolen credit cards.
The thefts date back to November 2012, but police believe there may be many other victims.

A configurable SerDes interface (PCI Express or Serial RapidIO) to the XMC connector and a conventional PCI interface to the PMC connectors provide ample bandwidth to the P2020. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB 2.0 port and two RS-232/422/485 ports are routed to P14 or P16 for additional system flexibility. The front-panel provides easy access to one Gigabit Ethernet port, one USB 2.0 port, and two RS-232 ports.

Its' free and it takes less than 10 seconds!
Hey there!
I'm the new owner of a wonderful Intuos3 tablet and it's sexy! I don't mean that I make love to it at night, but it's so precise and easy to use, it should be illegal!
Anyhoo, I started sketching with it and now, I want to try coloring with it, but I can't! Whenever I try to pick a color, say, RED, it turns into Gray. I go in the channels and there's only one and it says GRAY!
How do I make it so I can still use colors?!
Thanks in advance for the help!
Sounds like you're stuck in GRAYSCALE mode. Go up to your menu and see what MODE you're in. For color, it should be RGB or CMYK or anything other than Grays or bitmap... If that's the case, just switch to RGB mode.
