Sausage Gravy STUFFED Buttermilk Biscuits - Portable Breakfast Idea!
If you are a regular reader here, then you know that I have a bit of an addiction when it comes to my Mama's buttermilk biscuits. They are incredible, and if you haven't yet made them – you need to hurry and do so. I guarantee they will be the best biscuits you ever had the pleasure of putting in your mouth. I love to experiment with Mama's biscuits though – as I have done with the cheddar garlic buttermilk biscuits & the country ham stuffed biscuits. I am thrilled to be able to add another successful recipe into the file.
But seriously, when your foundation is my mother's unbeatable buttermilk biscuits & you stuff that with freshly made sausage gravy – how can you possibly go wrong?
Of course, to make these you will need to start off with my Mama's biscuits. The recipe is included in the formatted recipe at the bottom of this page, but you can view a more in depth look at it inthe original recipe.
After making the dough, flatten it out with your hands into a rectangle. Cut it into 8 squares using a pizza cutter.
Spray a muffin pan with cooking spray (I prefer Bakers Secret). Lightly dust your hands with flour, and flatten each square. Press them into the muffin cups. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter & brush it on top of the biscuits.
Bake them in an oven preheated to 500 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the sausage gravy. Brown 1 pound of sausage in a large skillet.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a paper towel lined plate. Turn the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter to the reserved bacon grease. Melt.
Cook, while whisking, for 1 minute – then start whisking in the milk a little at a time. Cook until thick. Season with salt & plenty of pepper.
This is the same sausage gravy recipe as I normally use, but with 1 cup less milk.
Fill the holes of the biscuits with the sausage gravy, and return to the oven on 500 degrees for 3-5 minutes.
Now, if you're like me – you'll want to sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top. Yum!
This will be one breakfast that you will be proud to serve! Try increasing the recipe, and making a large batch once a week. Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge, and reheat them in the microwave for breakfast throughout the week. Then you can have biscuits & gravy in just a matter of minutes! And, since they're portable – you can grab them & go too!
These are also GREAT to make ahead, and store in the freezer! Pop them on a baking sheet & into the freezer for an hour or two, and then seal them inside of a freezer bag. To serve, thaw overnight (or in the defrost setting of the microwave) & bake at 350 for 8-12 minutes, or until warmed through.
Using your fingers, work the shortening in with the flour in a large bowl until the flour appears crumbly, about the size of little peas. Stir in the buttermilk with a wooden spoon. Lightly dust your counter top with flour.
Pat the dough down into a neat rectangle – no reason to do any kneading really. Using a pizza cutter, slice the biscuits into 8 squares. Lightly dust your hands with flour, and flatten each biscuit. Press them into each muffin cup. Bake at 500 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the sausage gravy. Brown the sausage in a large skillet until done. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sausage to a paper towel lined plate. Turn the heat to medium, and add in 1 tablespoon of butter. Melt. Whisk in ¼ cup of flour, & let cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk, a little at a time, and cook until thickened.
Spoon the sausage gravy into the biscuits, making a mound of gravy in the middle. Return to the oven on 500 degrees for an additional 3 minutes. Serve with a sprinkling of red pepper flakes if desired.

Ethics board investigating Lynnwood City Council member
Lynnwood City Council member being investigated by ethics board
Suspect that shot two Pierce County deputies had extensive criminal history
The deputies were shot in the area of the 19000 block of Pacific Avenue South on Tuesday. The suspect, Jeremy Dayton, was killed.
Published: 12:18 PM PDT March 15, 2022
Updated: 4:11 PM PDT March 16, 2022
SPANAWAY, Wash. — Two Pierce County Sheriff's Department (PCSD) deputies were shot south of Spanaway Tuesday during a SWAT operation.
The 40-year-old suspect, identified as Jeremy Dayton, was shot and killed, according to a spokesperson for the Pierce County Force Investigation Team.
Deputy Dominique Calata was in critical condition Tuesday night and died Wednesday, according to the PCSD. Calata, 35, has a wife and 4-year-old child at home and has been with the department for the past seven years. Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer previously said the community would "need to prepare for the worst," when it comes to Calata's condition.
The other deputy, Sergeant Rich Scaniffe, was out of surgery Tuesday evening and in stable condition. Scaniffe is 45 and has been with the department for 21 years.
Pierce County Sheriff Sergeant Darren Moss said they are "asking for everybody's prayers at this time."
Troyer called Dayton a "third-strike candidate," meaning he was potentially facing life in prison. Law enforcement was serving a warrant for an alleged assault with a firearm at the time of the shooting, according to Troyer.
According to documents obtained by KING 5, Dayton had nine felonies, including multiple counts of second-degree assault. He was arrested eight times and was imprisoned three times.

Dayton's wife, Stacy, said she is heartbroken for the deputies and their families.
"I warned him. I said, 'they're going to kill you,'" she said. "Please don't have weapons, please don't be high, please just turn yourself in."
Stacy said the last time she heard from Dayton was Monday night when he called her daughter and said, "I love you, I'm so sorry."
The shooting occurred near 190th Street Court South and Pacific Avenue South around noon.
The South Sound Gang Task Force was serving a warrant for second-degree assault on Dayton. The task force had asked for help from the Pierce County Sheriff's Department's SWAT team due to Dayton's prior felony convictions, according to Wendy Haddow, a spokesperson for the Tacoma Police Department, which is assisting with the investigation.
During the incident, Haddow said gunfire was exchanged.
Stan Vukshich of Parkland said he and his wife were driving off the freeway when they saw police start blocking off traffic in the area. They also saw two ambulances with escorts traveling toward the scene.
"I was thinking, 'Oh, crap. Something bad happened,'" said Vukshich. "And I knew it had to have something happen with the law enforcement because you don't really see an escort like that ever for anything else."
The Pierce County Force Investigation Team will be investigating the incident.

A kid got punched in the ear for not sharing his crayons on Thursday. That was my 10:03 a.m. moment. We were coloring possums. It hurts to not share.
The rules of the classroom and playground haven't changed. Once upon a time, you played with friends that didn't want to murder you. Now when you get your feelings hurt, instead of kicking someone or calling them a butthead, you just stand there and take it and feel like you got punched in the gut or it just started raining and you're frozen in it and then walk away and post a lyric to a Tom Waits song and go to bed early. Everything just gets watered down into strange adult emotions that don't ever really get resolved. No wonder we're allowed to drink, because if we didn't, I don't know how people would deal with all this emotion. Maybe some people pray or move rocks around a plate of sand. I just get sad. How do you deal with people hurting your feelings?
I am a notorious non-believer, planner, doomsday prepper of my emotions, unofficial hoarder of scraps of paper that used to mean something but I forgot what that meaning was but I keep that and the crayon to go with it just in case a trip to a flea market in Florida will spark my memory of the scrap and the crayon. I am slightly paranoid of not remembering, or not remembering the good stuff and remembering all the bad crap. If my memories had the ability to be organized, I fantasize about what labels I could come up with. "The First Three Days of Spring Break 2009" "One Out of Seven Dances But Only the Ones Without a Boy Date" "Good Hair Days When It Was Long".
And then you could just leave out all the bad stuff that makes you scared to trust any human again.
Which is why I doomsday prep for the worst. Friendships since high school have all been forged on the scary fact that one day they won't like me anymore. One day, crayons or no crayons, I'm going to be blindsided with a punch in the ear and no more friends. This is a problem.
I see my kids interact everyday. One day, Jessie likes Jalen and they play Uno together at indoor recess. They laugh and tell jokes and high five and walk to the bus together. Next day, Jessie plays with Alexis instead of Jalen because Alexis has two new colored pens to share at free art time, so Jalen gets so hurt that he writes on the dry erase board, "I HAET JESSIE!" and cries on the walk to the bus while Jessie and Alexis giggle and laugh and tell jokes and high five. And here we are as adults, perceiving lost phone calls to be inconsideration, cryptic voicemail messages as a sign of a wavering friendship, while photo posts on Instagram with a group of your "so-called friends" gives you an empty gut feeling when you're home by yourself on a Friday night. We all feel like "I HAET JESSIE" but we just react passively because that's the grown up thing to do. What a weird concept. The grown up thing to do is nothing?
No, it's pretending that it doesn't hurt us. We have come into these adult-sized bodies with the ability to erase all negative emotion and our brains deflect mean people's words and actions. I think that's how we're supposed to act. Like we're above it. But I think the alternative is to just not let anything affect you; kind of like a real-life robot with the ability to drink soda and tell lies.
But the reality is that it does hurt. It still hurts to feel left out. It still hurts to know someone doesn't want to hang out with you anymore. It still hurts when someone is insensitive to you when you need someone to care. All of that is how humans relate to each other. And pretending that all of that is just for kids is kind of ridiculous. It just cycles into a big mess of misunderstanding and weird passive aggressive Facebook updates.
Let's just be honest. Let's just talk about how we feel, like when our teachers made us "talk about it" after I kicked my "crush" in the junk in 2nd grade. Let's talk about how his actions made me feel and why I reacted how I did. It always made me feel better. Let's try. I'm trying. I know. It's uncomfortable. Fortunately, I have realized, after announcing our move, that I have made some really amazing friendships.
I have a league of females to read books with, laugh with, cry with, puzzle with, every single week. I have a club to eat/make supper with in the middle of the week that always make Tuesdays better than most days, providing beers and fried pickles when the week has wore me down. I have a cousin that is more like a sister. I have an ordained minister friend that is more like a brother. I have a best friend that sends me tiny packages of toothpaste and a bootcamp therapist buddy that always wants to feed me and make me laugh. I have a grad school yoga friend who is an hour north but never feels less than 15 minutes away. I have a mountain family waiting to help us transition into a brand new chapter. And I have a husfriend, whose silliness, kindness and unconditional love has never ever failed.
I am beyond lucky. I have an incredibly full life of amazing people who I have been hurt by, who I have hurt, but have never and will never punch me in the ear.
And I'm fairly certain that not a lot of people can say that.
Let's not be safe anymore. Let's just love all the good ones with every bean we have and take lots of pictures and make lots of jokes and trust that we are going to hurt each other but trust that we also love each other. We're all just doing the best we can. And doing the best we can is good enough.

HomeFeaturesSouth Philly burger joint focuses on 'organic' items
South Philly burger joint focuses on 'organic' items
Marlo and Jason Dilks will debut their latest eatery, P'unk Burger, on Feb. 13 on Passyunk Avenue.
10 February 2015 Eamon Dreisbach Features
Taking their first bite into the patty-flipping business, SliCE pizzeria owners and alumni Marlo Dilks and her husband, Jason, will soon open an all-natural burger restaurant on Passyunk Avenue near Moore Street on Feb. 13.
Playfully named for the foodie neighborhood it occupies, P'unk Burger will feature an assortment of club sodas and milkshakes in addition to its veggie, gluten-free and gourmet, grass-fed beef burgers.
Aiming for an atmosphere far from the typical burger hub, P'unk will take a more health-conscious approach to its menu. All ingredients – even the milkshakes – will be organic and locally sourced. Grass-fed beef for the patties will be brought in courtesy of 1732 Meats, while an unconventional selection of cane sugar-based fountain sodas will be available thanks to the Portland, Maine based company Maine Root.
Nineteen years into the restaurant business, Dilks plans to carry over the same single-food specialization that has allowed SliCE to flourish in its three different locations.
"I live by, 'Do one thing and do it well,'" Dilks said. "When it comes to the quality of the products that you use, you have to give it your all, and I feel like people can tell the difference."
For Dilks, the layout and design of the restaurant plays just as important a role in the dining experience as the food itself.
"You're buying a burger, but it's the whole entire experience," she said. "You want to sit in a place that represents the burger that's coming out of the kitchen. If the burger's going to be fresher, cleaner, better, the place has to be fresher, cleaner, better."
Formerly home to the Chhaya Cafe, the quaint interior of the eatery reflects its organic theme. Working to avoid the dark or greasy feel that is often associated with fast food locations, lime green and white striped walls give the space a feeling of upbeat freshness. A vintage BurgerTime arcade machine beckons customers young and old to enjoy some light entertainment while waiting for their order.
The stools, tables and other home-feeling furniture at P'unk are the finely polished woodwork of local artisan Joe Konrad. Sharing an organic lifestyle similar to Dilks, Konrad was also responsible for building the community table that offers a close-knit feeling to the venue.
For the project, Konrad brought together his natural lifestyle and woodcraft expertise to create décor that matches the green theme of the restaurant.
"We started with some ideas and general concepts based on our materials, and as the project evolved and the whole thing started appearing in the space, we modified from our original designs and really customized it in an organic sense," Konrad said.
Keeping in line with the venue's all-inclusive nature, the pricing at P'unk will fall between the boundaries of fast food and gourmet dining, as well as BYOB. Customers can expect to pay around $7-11 for a burger.
In an attempt to satisfy customers as often as possible, P'unk Burger will be open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday nights until 3 a.m.
The venue will offer daily lunch promotions as well as a rewards program for regulars. Although the details are currently under tight wraps until the grand opening, P'unk will also be running a promotional event where customers can win free burgers for a year. Service options include pick up, take out, delivery and sit-ins.
When the grills are lit and the doors are finally open, Dilks is hopeful that P'unk can offer a burger that appeals to all types of crowds.
"My goal with this burger place is to have a burger that anybody would eat – the vegetarian, the vegan, the gluten-free, the person that doesn't like meat – a burger for everybody," Dilks said.

TUH first in area to use device for stomach disorder
Owls gearing up for season opener


Alila Seminyak is strongly committed to social, cultural and environmental responsibilities, which we regard as essential for sustainable business. In all activities, we aim to respect and preserve the way of life and traditions of local communities and endeavour to minimise our impact on the environment by adhering to environmental sustainability policy.
As part of its social responsibility and community development programme, Alila Seminyak supports two local elementary schools in Kerobokan where the resort is located. SD Negeri 1 was established in 1951 and was a pioneer of children's education in this area. As the population grew and the need for educational services expanded, the local government opened another elementary school, SD Negeri 2, in 1965. Teachers of both schools have been active in developing the schools' art and science curriculum, and facilitating students' participation in competitions such as national maths and science olympiads, Balinese dance and art competitions, English speech contests and many more. Nurturing the potential of the students requires the support of creative spaces such as a library, art class, computer and science laboratory. With the students and community being well exposed to tourism and an urban lifestyle, English and other foreign language training and facilities are required to provide basic communication skills. Education that promotes a sustainable environment and healthy lifestyle is also important to create a mindset of responsible tourism amongst the young generation.
'Bali Coins' is a fundraising programme that aims to build a brighter future for Bali's poor, disadvantaged and orphaned children by providing financial support for kids' general health, wellbeing and education, as well as create greater awareness among families and communities of critical health risks, prevention and care. Guests can contribute to Bali Coins through the resort's F&B outlets, where the price of some menu items includes an amount to be contributed to the programme. The funds collected for IDR 61,618,000 has been donated 100% to Alila Seminyak and Jemme's most prestigious annual event, The Bali Ball, which was held in October 2018. Into its 6th year, The Bali Ball has already raised over $500,000, which has supported many vital charitable organisations, such as Bali Kids, Bali Medika, Bali Children Foundation, and Yayasan Samaratania. As per 30 January 2019, we have collected IDR 22,020,000.
Alila Seminyak is glad to have the opportunity to sponsor two students from Bali Children Foundation (BCF) on a tertiary education scholarship program in the food and beverage sector named 'Food For Thought'. The program was initiated by BCF with a plan to develop excellent F&B skills among Bali's disadvantaged students, assisting the students, their families and their community while enriching the skills of the labour pool in Bali's F&B industry. The program provides BCF students who are pursuing food and beverage-related degrees an opportunity to be trained, mentored and hired by some of Bali's leading hospitality businesses.
BCF itself is a non-for-profit organisation that provides educational opportunities to underprivileged children in Bali. Through education, BCF strives to improve the quality of life one young person at a time. The foundation works with students, families, schools and communities to identify children that need financial help, supporting them through school to maintain strong grades, and helping them to secure good jobs.
Out of four candidates from BCF who had an interview at Alila Seminyak, two students, Kadek Eva Suantari and Kadek Pidy Antara, both 18 years old this year, were chosen to receive the Food For Thought scholarship, which costs around Rp15,500,000 per year. Alila Seminyak offers part-time work as part of the scholarship program. Both students started the program in June 2018.


She tempered his teeth spread out on her plate, dicing them into threes. His wisdom lay bare on his back succumbing to her pleas.
She nestled within his windswept hair and shaved his beard that day. It wasn't until she rolled in between his legs that she realized she liked it better that way.
She traversed the canyons of his soul n bit him between, where the wild kingdom roamed and the residue of honey glistened n gleaned.
The pegs that stood aboard his ship were whittled out of wood, but the beating of his heart was fast n shy through the sheets where her victim stood.
She draped him in capes n fine linens that saturated his skin. She gorged his sides til blood spilled out and the beat throbbed within.

Plans announced to turn Outlander's Lallybroch Midhope Castle into whisky distillery
Midhope Castle Distillery Company says the building will draw 'inspiration from historic features' at the site
Plans are in motion that could see a new whisky distillery built on the site of Midhope Castle, the 16th century townhouse that currently doubles as Outlander's Lallybroch.
Former Diageo director Ken Robertson, and the owners of popular whisky bottler have revealed plans to build a new distillery on the site at Hopetoun Estate in Queensferry.
Used as an exterior film setting during both Season 1 and 2 of the hit show, the actual site that is used to represent Broch Tuarach (north-facing tower in Gaelic) is a 16th-century ruin that lies just 30 miles outside of Edinburgh.
A popular visitor attraction, it could soon be given a new lease of life after Robertson, a director of the newly formed Midhope Castle Distillery Company, submitted a planning application to West Lothian Council for the building next to the ruin, which they also plan to restore in the long term.
The distillery would use only malting barley grown at Hopetoun Estate, which has a long tradition of supplying barley for the Scotch whisky industry.
Midhope Castle Distillery Company says the building, designed by Edinburgh-based 56three Architects and delivered by Currie & Brown, will draw "inspiration from historic features" at the site.
A spokesperson for the company told our sister site, the Insider: "We will set out to design and build a distillery that makes great whisky while addressing sustainability through every element of its architecture, its construction and its operation. With an innovative approach across the board we would aim to reduce our production carbon footprint to the absolute minimum, if not to zero. We believe that this approach goes hand in hand with producing a distinctive and characterful single malt Scotch Whisky capable of reflecting the qualities and traditions of one of Scotland's great historic estates."
Part of the private Hopetoun Estate, which covers an incredible 6,500 acres of land and also features heavily on the show, it was originally know as Medhope Castle when it was first built in the 1450s - 60s by then laird of Medhope, John Martyne.
It recently found new life on Outlander after showrunner Ronald D. Moore decided that it fit the "mental image" that they had of Lallybroch - home to the Fraser family.
The development will be news to fans of the hit Starz show's ears, after many were dismayed to learn of its current dilapidated state.

Home Blog Sachin Tendulkar must have Retired from Test Cricket Too
Sachin Tendulkar must have Retired from Test Cricket Too
In Sports by Abhinav Kaiser December 25, 2012 Leave a Comment
The news of Sachin Tendulkar retiring was not a surprising one, instead, it was a relief to see Sachin finally bid adieu. But, it was from the shortest format of the game that he played – one day cricket. He still intends to play the premier format – test cricket. Alas!
Most former cricketers namely Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar and Ajit Wadekar kept stating that the little master knew when the retire from cricket. The common man, the people who follow cricket passionately, felt otherwise. It was agonizing to see Sachin fall prey to the guile of immature cricketers, and one thing was clear – Sachin Tendulkar did not know when to retire. He wanted to play as long as he was favored in the selection committee.
The selection committee as we know it, don't like to go by logic. Instead they are ruled by the bosses of BCCI who dictate terms and avoid anti-popular decisions. Dropping Sachin was one of them. Speculations were rife that there was a strong anti-Sachin sentiment in the BCCI which was getting hit by the media for retaining him in the team and more importantly, in the playing eleven. Cheap dismissals in the recent Test series against England was a good showcase of diminishing skills of the once-upon-a-time god. The selection committee made it clear to Tendulkar that going by his present form, it was difficult for them to assure him a place in the team. Tendulkar, who wanted to avoid further embarrassment, called it a day from one day cricket. Did the India cricket chieftans tells him that they would pick him for the Test team against Pakistan? Possible. It is possible that they stuck a deal with him that he gave up one day cricket for him to get a final chance at making hundred hundreds.
In all honesty, everyone who understands cricket, including the selectors know that the days of Tendulkar is over – not now, but at least a couple of years back. Sachin wanted to play and there was nothing that the board could do about it, they simply went by the god like status he carried.
Two recent former cricketers who quit at their own will are Anil Kumble and Rahul Dravid. They knew when to retire, and called it a day when the time was apt. They did not get into the realm of blaspheming their careers like Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly did. They retired when they were still invaluable for the Indian cricket team. The board, selectors and most importantly, experts and fans felt the irreplaceable void they created. The way Anil and Rahul went out on a high is the right way to do it. Sachin and Saurav are selfish in a sense to have over played their talents and thereby preventing youngsters from getting a look in.
I hope that Sachin gets his senses back in the next month and a half to call it a day from Test cricket too. There has not been any modern batsman who has played only Test cricket and has excelled in it too. The key to test success is continuous exposure to competitive cricket. Playing only in Test cricket is not the right way going about it, and the nation awaits to bid farewell to the god of Indian cricket to depart decently after seeing him toil for over 23 years.
On a different note, I believe that MS Dhoni as captain is a bad choice. He is still captain, thanks to his IPL owner Srinivasan who runs BCCI as well. It is sad state of affairs to find such personal interests take over, especially when captaincy of a national team is concerned. There is a definite conflict of interest. Srinivasan is set to lose plenty of supporters and sponsors if Dhoni was to be removed. He is a businessman who wants to make his investments work, at the cost of a nation of a billion, who follow cricket over the million gods.

LCR Response to Masterpiece Cakeshop Decision
Released at: June 08, 2018
Washington, D.C. — Moments ago, the United States Supreme Court issued its long-awaited opinion in the case Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. In a 7-2 decision, the court ruled on narrow grounds, concluding that Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips was treated with undue hostility because of his sincerely held religious beliefs.
In response, Log Cabin Republicans President Gregory T. Angelo issued the following statement:
When faced with the contentious issue of balancing religious freedom and LGBT equality, today the Supreme Court wisely decided to hit the pause button. There will be many on the left who will say that this ruling opens the door to rampant discrimination, and many on the right who will declare that this is a major milestone for advocates of religious liberty — but neither will be correct. The fact that Justices appointed by Presidents Clinton and Obama sided with Masterpiece Cakeshop should be an indication that there is more nuance to this decision than meets the eye. In writing for the majority of the Court, Justice Anthony Kennedy declared the 'outcome of cases like this in other circumstances must await further elaboration in the courts'; we look forward to that day. More than anything else, the Masterpiece Cakeshop decision shines a spotlight on the glaring absence of federal LGBT non-discrimination legislation. Log Cabin Republicans remains committed to passing such protections while also honoring the religious liberty upon which our nation was founded.

Vengeance Runs Red (Vimeo) – A short film from filmmaker Philip Brocklehurst that tells the story of two who men who are haunted by a past mistake. A young dude takes upon himself to serve justice that is due. I give it 2 ½ out of 4 stars. Want to find out more go here: www.facebook.com/philip.brocklehurst.9
War of the Dead (DVD) – The film isn't horrible but it's not great either. The film is just another run of the mill Nazi zombie flick that isn't very memorable. Sorry horror folk no "Outpost", "Dead Snow", or "Frankenstein's Army" here. Just keep moving along as I give this flick 1 ½ stars.
The Rezort (DVD) – Another fun take on the zombie genre from the UK I believe? Ten years has passed since some worldwide virus turns millions of humans into zombies. The antidote was introduced to everywhere except one island. This island has now become a 'Jurassic Park' of zombies where some big corporation got the idea of if you got the money they have the zombies to shoot and kill. But no one thinks how are they resupplying the stock of zombies? The story mainly revolves a woman whose father was killed during riots when the zombie virus first started to spread. She believes going to this island will get her over her nightmares and fears? Once there she has faced her fears but wasn't counting on the zombies getting loose in the park and begin feasting on all vacationing there. Now, she and a small group of others have five hours to get off the island before the military levels the island! A wildly entertaining zombie flick folks as I give it 3 ½ stars.
Nemesis 3: Time Lapse (VHS) – I got bored and decided to fall down the Albert Pyun wormhole again and watched these not needed sci-fi sequels that feature Tim Thomerson and Sue Price. In this mid-90s sequel Sue Price is searching out and destroying cyborgs as Tim Thomerson keeps a watchful eye over her for Central Command. Central Command wants her alive at all costs. Really folks not a whole lot happens in this flick but if you are a Tim Thomerson fan I totally get why you would track this bad boy down as I give it 1 ½ stars. The film also is known as "Nemesis 3: Prey Harder".
Nemesis 4: Cry of Angels (VHS) – Albert Pyun brings back Sue Price one more time for what I like to call "Nemesis 4: Sue Price Bangs all the Cyborgs". Never mind Andrew Divoff's head speaks about cyborg non-sense throughout the movie. Sue Price's goal in 2080 apparently is to be naked and bump uglies with all the cyborgs and then kill them. I believe the alternative title to this flick was actually "Hardbodies 3"? But that couldn't be confirmed or denied at this time. But the gist of the flick this time around is Price's character fucked up at some point and now there are Hunters all over her naked muscle bound ass! It wasn't a great flick but it was a hell of a lot more interesting than the last sequel where she sat in a desert for about 75% of the damn movie. I give the flick 2 stars and you may also find this movie under the title "Death Angel" in some countries…
Swiss Army Man (DVD) – Possibly the most bizarre, completely entertaining, and glorious film you will ever watch in your life. I do not say that lightly. Daniel Radcliffe said it best on a late night talk show, "It's a film about farting, erections, and a dead guy." If you do not find that funny: one, this isn't the film for you and two, you are most likely dead inside? The film begins with a young man played Paul Dano who is trapped on a small island trying to hang himself until he sees a dead body wash up on shore. Its Manny aka Daniel Radcliffe and once he begins farting Dano's character rides him across the water to freedom and onto an adventure that will blow your mind. They become friends, eat out, share stories, start fires, and fight a bear. You get the picture? If you haven't witnessed this film yet make it so because the ending makes the movie even more bizarre and fun. I give this hilarious flick 4 stars farting all the way.
Avenging Force (DVD) – One of Michael Dudikoff's better action flicks outside of the "American Ninja" saga. Dudikoff's buddy, Steven James of course is running for senate. Until some rich white racist dudes with their leader John P. Ryan decide to kill him and his family. On top of that they make Dudikoff play "Surviving the Game" eight years before Ice-T did! This 80s action flick will satisfy your action flick hunger if needed as I give it 3 stars.
Love Eternal: The Silent Film Cut (YouTube) – Forte Films Entertainment as at it again flaunting their filmmaking talents with a cool throwback short film version of Dracula and Mina. Done their way they give 'silent era film buffs' a tasty treat. Wonderfully done this filmmaking group needs more support and money because I would love to see these guys making a couple features a year. I give this fun treat 3 out of 4 stars and you can find out more at: www.fortefilmsentertainment.com .
Explorers (DVD) – Holy crap folks I do not know how I missed this 1985 flick starring Ethan Hawke and River Phoenix. This was so in my wheelhouse. But after reading some of the info on it and how it was considered a flop maybe somehow it fell off my cable watching radar as a kid? Apparently this movie was over 3 hours long and I believe Paramount Studios were like "nope", not happening Joe Dante. The film is reportedly unfinished but a finished product. Very strange stuff but anyway folks the story centers on Ethan Hawke who has a weird dream about aliens and an image. He draws it and shows it to his best friend who of course is the nerdy kid down the street doing experiments in his basement. Hawke's character continues to have these weird dreams and once his two friends become a part of it and his nerdy best friend uses a computer to make a bubble they decide its plans for a spaceship. The spaceship consists of a trash can, an old carnival ride, microwave doors, and a computer in the movie that didn't exist in reality but was built just for this movie. They fly around and fuck shit up until Dick Miller finds them and eventually go off planet to meet the aliens. Really not too much to the movie but it is a fun glorious kick in the ass of childhood if you are a 80s kid? I give the entertaining film 3 stars.

Independent film news News Trailers Websites film festival Forte Films Entertainment Halloween New Jersey Horror Con The Sin Reapers
Zombie Croc (DVD) – There has been a disturbance in the small southern town of Raven's Neck. The deputy Rivera is sent to investigate and all can be found is bloody human remains everywhere. Believed it was an animal attack the sheriff is not all too concerned with Popa Chicken and his hatred for the town's mayor. Popa Chicken disgusted with the eviction notices so he and his friends can be moved out for big business Popa brings forth a giant croc. While the croc causes havoc in the woods the town's only hope is the deputy and a guy called "Crocodile Jack"! As usual filmmaker Robert Elkins brings forth a bit of exploitation feel with lots of blood and guts on no budget. I easily could see this film on SyFy Channel or a Chiller Channel during the summer months. My only major complaint would be the running time but was warned by Mr. Elkins ahead of time as I give the monster croc film 2 ½ out of 4 stars. More about the filmmaker and his films can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/robert.elkins.5 .
Zombie Isle (DVD) – Once again Independent filmmaker Robert Elkins keeps the motto: No budget, no problem, as some students and their professor visit an inhabited island for research. The island doesn't even show up on most local maps. But the students and the pervy professor are in for a surprise when they show up and attacked by flesh-eaters (shades of Fulci perhaps). But the other thing waiting there is an old abandoned army station that the professor knew about and its rumors of a scientist living there? Greeted by scary German scientist guy they become witnesses to a project almost perfected since World War II. Apparently Scary German Guy is working on a formula to perfect soldiers or zombies for war! Think of 'Outpost' meets 'Re-animator' with a sprinkle of Fulci on no budget as usual as I give the flick 2 ½ out of 4 stars. For more details go check Robert at: https://www.facebook.com/robert.elkins.5 .
Arachnicide (DVD) – My hunger for mutant spider movies never ends as I find this oddity low budget flick about the government looking into big time drug dealer project. The project is a secret experiment on genetically-enhanced coco plants that will become full grown within hours to speed up the drug process. A small military tactical team is put together to invade a compound in Albania to destroy the heart of this experiment. Problem is the bad guys are smarter and have no plants there but genetically-enhanced spiders waiting to attack. A 'Food of the Gods' thing going here people as I give this oddity 1 ½ stars.
Anna (YouTube) – A short film that tackles two subjects in a very unique way. A young woman thought death would solve everything? But being undead and eating yourself sick doesn't solve anything either… Pretty intelligent stuff from Forte Films Entertainment that is worth your time checking into and following them as I give it the short film 4 out of 4 stars. Find them at: www.fortefilmsentertainment.com and www.facebook.com/ForteFilmsEntertainment .
Easter Sunday (DVD) – Douglas Fisher is the serial killer known as "The Bunny Masked Killer" who went on a murderous rampage over 20 years ago on Easter. The police gunned him down but little they know Fisher's offspring has survived and carries the secret of knowing who his father is. Now present day, the son Ryan Fischer and friends decide to have a drunken campfire and play with the spirit board. Ryan not believing in such a thing screams for his father to be brought back from the dead and contact them. The spirit board of course works and the spirit of Douglas Fisher now possesses Ryan and go dig up the old killer bunny mask. Now Ryan continues his father's murderous rampage on Easter. I believe it's a great concept for a slasher film that stars Robert Z'Dar and Ari Lehman. Plus the film has a great death scene by boiling water and has an awesome killer mask to market. But for me the film eventually falls a part in the second half with the film thinking it's funny and no interesting characters outside of the bunny killer and Ari Lehman as the postman. I am not saying stay away from this holiday flick but I prefer 'Easter Casket' from Dustin Mills. You can purchase "Easter Sunday" at www.alternativecinema.com as I give this flick 2 out of 4 stars.
Sharkenstein (DVD) – In 1942 Germany, Hitler's men raid a laboratory to steal Frankenstein's brain and heart from a scientist for their own evil Nazi experiments. It is said that the heart and brain of the monster cannot be destroyed? Who said this is unknown? But fast forward to present time where vacationers have been disappearing at "Katzman Cove". A vacationing family has boat troubles and stumble upon a guy and his horrible German accent that has created 'Sharkenstein'. A killer shark with the brain and heart of Frankenstein that is an unstoppable force! This horror mash-up is everything and more you expect from Polonia Brothers Entertainment. The only thing missing is Jon McBride randomly showing up as I give this hilarious mash-up 2 stars.
Yoga Hosers (DVD) – This latest Kevin Smith film stars Smith's and Johnny Depp's kids as "The Colleens" who are clerks at a convenience store in Winnipeg, Canada. The job is tough enough to work on a Friday night but when you are high school sophomores denied a chance to a senior party, it sucks. After learning about Canadian Nazis and fighting with their Phys. Ed. Teacher about real yoga in school they must go to the store. Once there they are greeted by little mini-Hitler sausage people known as the Bratzis. If things could not get worse the senior boy Hunter they adore invites himself and his bro to party at the store to sacrifice the girls to Satan because it is so metal! The boys are killed by the Bratzis and the girls are thrown in jail until they are broken out by Mr. Guy Lapointe to find the secret passage of the Bratzis to fight the evil. This "check your brain at the door" flick is absolutely hilarious and if by some chance you do not like it I say "sorry aboot that". I give Smith's latest 3 ½ stars.
Logan (Theater) – Damn this movie was really good! We are thrusted into the year 2029 where there is no more mutants (not fully explained but pay attention there are hints), Logan is a drunk and old and old Professor X is a babbling swearing idoit in Mexico. Wolverine just wants to make enough money to buy a boat for Professor X and himself and end it all. Calls it their only safe place left. But one night Logan is approached by a woman who wants to pay him for safe passage to a location in North Dakota for unknown reasons. After a second encounter he is introduced to a little girl named Laura, a mutant. Not wanting anything to do with this Logan takes the money knowing full well people will come looking and wanting to kill him and Professor X. But Laura aka X-23 is what Professor X has been ranting about and believes she is the answer, the hope they look for? Reluctantly as Logan knows he is dying he drives Professor X and the mutant Laura north to get them to Canada. But as Logan learns more about her he begins to feel for her as he knows she will have to face what he has always tried to run from? The film is by far the most violent of any X-men related films or Marvel (exception of Blade). The film is gritty, real, and just a bad ass superhero film that I know I have wanted (because of X-23) but fans of Wolverine for quite a while. This stand-alone movie proves violent comic book movies can be made and make a shitload of cash for the Hollywood execs! I won't say it is the best flick of 2017 but don't be surprised it shows up on my list at the end of the year as I give 4 stars.
Breeders (DVD) – I believe this hilarious flick where every woman must be naked is from the same guy that gave us 'Mutant Hunt', Tim Kincaid. A slimy ass alien roams the streets of Manhattan looking virgin women to rape! If that isn't enough they eventually become possessed to travel to the alien's nest under the city. Where of course the women once there are naked and rub each other down with white goo. I swear to you this 1986 film isn't porn? But wouldn't have been surprised it wasn't marketed that way in certain countries. But hopefully a detective and a very concerned doctor can stop the madness or just watch the ridiculousness of it? I give it 2 stars.
Kickboxer: Vengeance (DVD) – Haven't had enough of the first five films? How about a reboot where Jean-Claude Van Damme trains Kurt Sloan to fight Tong Po aka Dave Batista after Tong killed his brother in a special underground tournament. Kurt wants revenge and of course only JCVD and some random hot ass police woman can help you in Thailand. If a fan of the series you know what you are getting yourself into as I give it 2 stars.
Mad Foxes (DVD) – So you are looking for lost exploitation flicks? Look no further than this Corman-inspired rampage film where for 75 minutes is a back and forth fight between Kyle Martin and a Nazi motorcycle gang for no really good reason. The film's highlights many naked women that Kyle has sex with, lots of hairy dongs, bootleg Chuck Norris dojo and friends, Nazi gang shootings, death by gardening shears, multiple penis hackenings, exploding toilet death, a gimp, and a song by Krokus! There is no real point to the film except for having the most over the top rampage thrown in your face! I give it 3 stars, now start looking for this gem.

"The Village that keeps on giving". That was the comment made by a well off west London friend of my daughter-in-law who had driven up from London to visit for lunch. As she walked down the High Street yet one more enticing shop after another allowed her to do almost all her Christmas shopping here.
Over the last few years Watlington's High Street has acquired some interesting new shops and the old ones have been revamped. We hear lots of anecdotal news that it has become a 'destination'. Actually it has gone beyond and anecdote and is true.
On the corner Bella Luce with its spectacular lights in the window catches the eye of passing traffic topped at the Town Hall, especially at night when the lamps are lit. As a result they get customers from as far as Cheltenham and Nottingham who make a special stop to visit the shop. You will have noticed the lady with umbrella lamps, these are hand made in Greece and dozens have been sold.
The Italian Handbag Shop despite being small also attracts the attention of passing drivers sitting in traffic. For the owner, Catherine Johnson, business has been good; she has a wide price range from £25 - £250 so lots of customers come in to buy small presents. She buys all her bags from small family run leather workshops outside Florence. It shows just how far the incompetence of our government reaches in that at present she buys small quantities at each order so if a line does not sell she is not stuck with stock, but with Brexit looming should she now take a risk and spend thousands of pounds stockpiling bags that might not sell?
When I walked into K is for kitchen I was assailed by a lovely smell of cooking... It was Wednesday and Wendy was preparing quiches on their dinky little single plate Aga. It's like an Aladdin's cave and a testament to Amanda Hinton's imagination that apart from selling kitchen stuff they hold cookery demonstrations prepare food to order for parties, baptisms, business lunches etc. have started a wedding list service, sell Cook Ready Meals and Ice Cream and kitchen units. I enquired about their best seller, apparently Self Sealing Lids, they are silicone suction lids you can use on frying pans and in the fridge. I was given a demonstration, put a lid on a glass and lift it up by the lid's handle and it sticks... Magic!
The revamped Calnan's Butchers also draws in customers from quite a distance, as far as Aylesbury. Their best seller is the ready prepared dishes; they are all made in the shop, many by Tom Calnan himself.
Robin at the Granary hopes that his new more spacious shop will allow people to find things more easily. The extra space lets him have a whole wall of local - well from between London and Bristol - bottled beers. The bigger café now has a quieter side where people feel more able to work and have business meetings. Let's hope the longer stays translate into more spending.
Drapes, the interior designers, have been in Watlington for 37 years and their workshop in the High Street making all types of soft furnishings, curtains and upholstery, etc. Their shop in Couching Street with such decorative window displays is really the show room for their dozen of textile sample books.
I can't mention every shop but now we hardly need to leave Watlington, we can buy presents for all occasions and things for the house, Mercy in Action has given us a clothes shop and the Rhubarb Tree has taken over selling stationery from the old Post Office, Angela provides vegetables and we have fresh fish from the back of a van on Thursday.
We might criticise the Co-op for running out of stock, but what would we do without it and as far as I can see it's not the staff's fault, all decisions on stock are taken by the head office in Warwick and not the local managers. How mad is that? Our branch is a 'Premium Store' which means we have more of their high end 'Truly Irresistible' range and which is why there are 41 different teas. I asked what their best seller was - Prosecco and salmon fillets. What a lot of lushes we are! That is why so much shelf space is given over to white wine.
When so many villages are losing not just their shops but pubs too, we must keep on 'use it or lose it' to ensure the High Street stays as vibrant as it is now and hope the Edge Road won't divert all the passing trade as well as the traffic. The big unknown of course is what is going to happen to the newly refurbished Home Care shop, the letting agents have been inundated with enquiries.

Q: Python Class scope & lists I'm still fairly new to Python, and my OO experience comes from Java.  So I have some code I've written in Python that's acting very unusual to me, given the following code:
class MyClass():
        mylist = []
        mynum = 0

        def __init__(self):
                # populate list with some value.
                self.mylist.append("Hey!")
                # increment mynum.

                self.mynum += 1

a = MyClass()

print a.mylist
print a.mynum

b = MyClass()

print b.mylist
print b.mynum

Running this results in the following output:
['Hey!']
1
['Hey!', 'Hey!']
1

Clearly, I would expect the class variables to result in the same exact data, and the same exact output... What I can't seem to find anywhere is what makes a list different than say a string or number, why is the list referencing the same list from the first instantiation in subsequent ones? Clearly I'm probably misunderstanding some kind of scope mechanics or list creation mechanics..

A: tlayton's answer is part of the story, but it doesn't explain everything.
Add a
print MyClass.mynum

to become even more confused :). It will print '0'. Why? Because the line
self.mynum += 1

creates an instance variable and subsequently increases it. It doesn't increase the class variable.
The story of the mylist is different.
self.mylist.append("Hey!")

will not create a list. It expects a variable with an 'append' function to exist. Since the instance doesn't have such a variable, it ends up referring the one from the class, which does exist, since you initialized it. Just like in Java, an instance can 'implicitly' reference a class variable. A warning like 'Class fields should be referenced by the class, not by an instance' (or something like that; it's been a while since I saw it in Java) would be in order. Add a line
print MyClass.mylist

to verify this answer :).
In short: you are initializing class variables and updating instance variables. Instances can reference class variables, but some 'update' statements will automagically create the instance variables for you.

A: What you are doing here is not just creating a class variable. In Python, variables defined in the class body result in both a class variable ("MyClass.mylist") and in an instance variable ("a.mylist"). These are separate variables, not just different names for a single variable.
However, when a variable is initialized in this way, the initial value is only evaluated once and passed around to each instance's variables. This means that, in your code, the mylist variable of each instance of MyClass are referring to a single list object.
The difference between a list and a number in this case is that, like in Java, primitive values such as numbers are copied when passed from one variable to another. This results in the behavior you see; even though the variable initialization is only evaluated once, the 0 is copied when it is passed to each instance's variable. As an object, though, the list does no such thing, so your append() calls are all coming from the same list. Try this instead:
class MyClass():
    def __init__(self):
        self.mylist = ["Hey"]
        self.mynum = 1

This will cause the value to be evaluated separately each time an instance is created. Very much unlike Java, you don't need the class-body declarations to accompany this snippet; the assignments in the __init__() serve as all the declaration that is needed.

A: I believe the difference is that += is an assignment (just the same as = and +), while append changes an object in-place.
    mylist = []
    mynum = 0

This assigns some class variables, once, at class definition time.
    self.mylist.append("Hey!")

This changes the value MyClass.mylist by appending a string.
    self.mynum += 1

This is the same as self.mynum = self.mynum + 1, i.e., it assigns self.mynum (instance member).  Reading from self.mynum falls through to the class member since at that time there is no instance member by that name.

SCE&G Wins Award
Jan 10, 2018 01:51PM ● By Kathleen Maris
The Edison Electric Institute (EEI) awarded SCE&G the association's "Emergency Recovery Award" for its outstanding power restoration efforts after Hurricane Irma in September 2017.
The award is presented to EEI member companies to recognize their efforts to restore power to customers after service disruptions caused by severe weather conditions or other natural events. The winners were chosen by a panel of judges following an international nomination process.
SCE&G prepared for Hurricane Irma by mobilizing approximately 2,500 crews to aid in restoration efforts. An additional 650 off-system linemen and resources were ready before the storm in case more assistance was necessary. Hurricane Irma moved through South Carolina on Sept. 11, bringing high winds and rain that left 154,000 SCE&G customers without power. By late the next day, crews had restored power to more than 140,000 of those customers. SCE&G frequently communicated with customers by sharing safety messages, preparedness information, and restoration updates through local media and the company's social media channels.
"The tireless work by SCE&G crews during Hurricane Irma exemplifies our industry's commitment to customer service," said EEI president Tom Kuhn. "While many SCE&G employees were impacted by the storm, crews worked diligently and often in dangerous conditions to restore service to customers safely and as quickly as possible. The dedicated crews of SCE&G are very deserving of this award."

Til Debt Do Us Part - CU Global Thought
Til Debt Do Us Part
Lessons for a Deglobalizing World from the Last 25 Centuries of Financial Crisis
November 10 · 6-7PM
Columbia University, 513 Fayerweather Hall
Bob Swarup, Author, Money Mania; Senior Visiting Fellow, Cass Business School, London; Fellow, Institute of Economic Affairs, London
Perry Mehrling, Professor of Economics, Barnard College; Member, The Committee on Global Thought, Columbia University
About the Discussion
Dr. Bob Swarup and Professor Perry Mehrling see economic and political performance under deglobalization as a warning about what lies ahead. Yet perhaps we can learn from the past to avoid this grim future?
What are the emerging tensions between growth and financial stability? Dr. Swarup and Professor Mehrling look to the case of Europe in the 1920s to examine the perils of autarky and too much debt. History teaches us that economies do not exist in isolation but rather have political and social dimensions; when policymakers ignore this reality, it comes back to haunt us as the specter of populism.
Furthermore, what can we learn from the past about contemporary issues of redistribution, inequality, fiscal vs. monetary policy, and beyond? Dr. Swarup will guide participants through his book, Money Mania, noting some of the themes that reemerge throughout history, particularly with respect to behavioral biases. He will also assess the risks we don't think about enough today, such as the impact on savings pools, social cohesion, and the Fetish of GDP.
Access Dr. Swarup's presentation here.
About Money Mania
Money Mania is a sweeping account of financial speculation and its consequences, from ancient Rome to the Meltdown of 2008. Acclaimed journalist and investor Bob Swarup tracks the history of speculative fevers caused by the appearance of new profitable investment opportunities; the new assets created and the increasing self-congratulatory euphoria that drives them to unsustainable highs, all fed by an illusion of insight and newly minted experts; the unexpected catalysts that eventually lead to panic; the inevitable crash as investors scramble to withdraw their funds from the original market and any other that might resemble it; and finally, the brevity of financial memory that allows us to repeat the cycle without ever critically evaluating the drivers of this endless cycle.
In short, it is the story of what makes us human.
"Unusually well-told, and expansive in scope. Similarities between different episodes are breath-taking… His framework provides interesting pointers." – Financial Times
"[An] excellent new book, which looks at booms, panics and busts down the ages. … Swarup's book comes out at an opportune moment." – The Guardian
"[An] erudite history of financial speculation." – The Economist

About ISSB
Empowered to Achieve: The Dalton Difference – Ascham School
Back to News listing
Nestled in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, a stone's throw from the CBD, you'll discover Ascham School. With its state-of-the-art facilities catering to day and boarding students from Prep to Year 12, Ascham is a proudly independent school with a firm focus on the individual girl.
Ascham is also remarkably unique. It is the only school in Australia delivering the national curriculum through The Dalton Plan; a highly flexible educational structure based on three pillars: Assignment, Lesson and Study.
NURUTRING ACADEMIC GROWTH FOR ALL
Whilst Ascham boasts an impressive academic track record, it is not an academically selective school. The Dalton Plan enables girls at all levels and abilities to thrive in an inclusive environment that supports and encourages continuous improvement and growth.
The Plan assists each girl in assuming responsibility for her own learning and engages students and teachers in an intellectual partnership.
One of the key features of the Dalton Plan is the incorporation of Studies into the timetable alongside more traditional lessons. If you were to walk into a Study at Ascham, you'd observe fewer than ten girls, often across different year levels, working quietly together on their Assignments, older students offering peer support to younger girls, and everyone enjoying and benefiting from powerful one-on-one communication with the Teacher.
Studies are informal, collaborative, relational, respectful – and they produce exceptional results.
Ascham Head of School, Mr. Andrew Powell comments, "Lessons can be daunting learning environments with 20 other students in the class,' he said. "Studies give you more support, as you are bringing your learning concerns and questions to the classroom. The Study is a safe place to make mistakes and build confidence. We often say to the girls: There are no silly questions, there is just your question."
REALTIME FEEDBACK KEY TO REACHING GOALS
Each Tuesday at Ascham, students are required to hand in an Assignment. Ascham Director of Enrolments and Community, Ms. Myfanwy Stanfield explains, "The weekly Assignments provide an amazing opportunity for follow up, feedback and support. After the girls have handed in their Assignment, they can then utilise a Study to sit down with their teacher (one on one) and receive direct feedback on a weekly basis. Other schools may provide a twice-yearly report card, whereas here at Ascham our girls get constant feedback to guide their learning."
Mr. Powell, adds, "There's a huge strength in the process of teachers marking Assignments and giving feedback on a weekly basis. Also, the small classes enable teachers and students to develop strong relationships. Ascham students become very adept at asking questions—the ability and confidence to ask questions is so important. A question is not a sign of weakness, it's simply a student seeking clarity and direction."
THE ROLE OF FAILURE IN WELLBEING
Wellbeing plays a vital role in daily life at Ascham. Girls who are socially, emotionally and physically well are able to engage fully with their learning. A key element of wellbeing at Ascham is understanding and embracing the concept of failure.
Mr. Powell explains, "While having aspirations and being ambitious is always encouraged, the risk-taking inherent in this can be confronting. Some students can find it difficult to make mistakes, they become very focused on the outcome instead of enjoying the learning experience."
Ms. Stanfield adds, "Here at Ascham we believe to FAIL is merely your First Attempt In Learning. With toxic perfectionism a very real issue with girls everywhere, it's important that we're providing an environment where girls are allowed to make mistakes."
The Dalton Plan delivers exactly that environment, one where girls are supported to work positively towards their goals. The constant feedback provided means girls are able to adapt and grow – enjoying a sense of achievement each week as they reach their goals, and set their aspirations for the week ahead.
The students naturally remain keenly focussed on their ambitions, as they continue their journey in life – empowered with the knowledge, skills and resilience that will enable them to succeed.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
The world Sam Witwicky was born into was unlike anything he could have ever imagined. He was born a college-bound student, that was until he met the Autobot, Optimus Prime. Over the course of the past few months, Optimus had revealed to Sam the truth about their ancient origins and their epic battle against the Decepticons.
Sam had found himself partnered with two of the most powerful beings in the universe, Bumblebee and Optimus, in a mission to save humanity from the Decepticons and their leader, Megatron. The stakes are high, and the pressure to succeed grows with each passing day.
Sam knows that failure is not an option and sets out to uncover what the Decepticons are hiding, but as he delves deeper and deeper into their plans, he soon realizes that they are not just trying to take over the world; they are out to destroy it.
As he struggles to piece together the puzzle and come up with a plan of attack, Sam discovers a powerful artifact that could turn the tide of the war, but the Decepticons are using a powerful artifact of their own to shield their real plans. It is up to Sam to unlock the shield and reveal their ultimate weapon.
Sam must race against time to discover their plans and the artifact before it is too late. As he battles one enemy after the other and struggles to stay alive, he is taken on a journey of self-discovery. With each victory and each step closer to his goal, Sam learns valuable lessons and is forced to confront his own doubts and fears.
With time running out and the fate of the world in his hands, Sam must find the strength to take on Megatron and the Decepticons, free the humans under their control, and ultimately save the world.
Finally, after days and nights of intense fighting, Sam and his allies were able to bring down the shield and uncover the artifact. With the help of the Autobots and the humans, Sam was able to take control of the artifact, revealing the Decepticons' ultimate weapon.
Using the weapon, Sam and his allies were able to stop Megatron and his Decepticons, saving the world in the process.
But Sam's story did not end there. Freed from the control of the Decepticons, the humans Sam had fought alongside and the Autobots that had taught him so much went back to their own lives.
With peace restored, Sam found himself looking for a new purpose in life. He had been given the chance to save the world and he had taken it, but now he had to figure out what to do with his life.
Sam decided that he wanted to use the skills he had learned from Optimus and his other allies to become a hero. He would use his knowledge to help people in their time of need. He began helping people in his own town and soon his influence began to spread throughout the region.
Sam Witwicky soon became a symbol of hope and courage in the face of overwhelming odds. He had gone from a college-bound student to becoming a real-life hero.
Sam had saved the world and his legacy would live on forever.
Some scenes from the AI movie Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
EXT. CITY STREETS – DAY
A busy city street is seen, with cars and people everywhere. Cars are beeping and passing each other in the street, and people are scurrying around in their daily lives.
Suddenly, there's a loud, deafening roar above the chaos. The street clears out as people look to the sky in fear, and they see a large, metallic figure flying above them.
SAM (V.O.)
What is that?
The figure lands in the middle of the street, and all eyes are on it. The figure steps forward, and it is revealed to be Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobots. He looks around, and his gaze falls upon Sam.
Sam Witwicky, I have come to seek your help.
Sam looks around, overwhelmed by the situation and unsure of what to do.
My help? For what?
The Decepticons and their leader Megatron have come to Earth with the intention of enslaving humanity. I need your help to stop them.
Sam looks around him, seeing the fear and disbelief in the eyes of the bystanders. He takes a deep breath and turns back to Optimus.
I'm in. Let's do this.
EXT. AUTOBOT SHIP – DAY
The Autobot ship is a large, futuristic looking vessel, hovering just above the ground. Sam is walking across the deck, awe struck by the giant robots standing around him.
Optimus is standing at the entrance to the bridge, and he beckons Sam to come closer.
Come, Sam. We have much to discuss.
The two enter the bridge and an enormous holographic display illuminates the room.
OPTIMUS (CONT'D)
This is the Decepticon's plan. We must find out what they are hiding and stop them from destroying humanity.
Sam looks at the holographic display, trying to comprehend the massive plan that is laid out before him.
What do you need me to do?
I need you to uncover the Decepticons' powerful artifact before it is too late. We only have a limited amount of time before Megatron unveils his ultimate weapon.
Sam looks around the bridge, feeling small and insignificant amongst the large Autobots. He takes a deep breath and squares his shoulders.
I understand. I'm ready to do whatever it takes to save the world.
Optimus looks upon Sam with pride and admiration.
You are brave, Sam. The Autobots and humanity are in your hands.
EXT. UNDERGROUND CAVE – DAY
Sam and Optimus are standing in front of an enormous cave, shrouded in darkness. Sam is shivering and his voice is shaking.
This is where the Decepticons are hiding the artifact?
Optimus nods, and the two enter the cave. As they walk, Sam looks around, unsure of what they are going to find.
The cave is massive and filled with strange symbols and contraptions. Suddenly, they hear a loud roar, and an enormous figure steps out of the shadows. It is Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons.
Welcome, Sam Witwicky. I have been expecting you.
Sam takes a step back, and Optimus steps in front of him protectively.
Megatron. You will not harm Sam.
Ah, Optimus Prime. I have already won this battle. You and your defenses are no match for me.
Sam looks around, trying to find a way to defeat Megatron. He notices a strange symbol on one of the walls, and he looks closer. Suddenly, he realizes it is the symbol that marks the location of the artifact.
I know where it is! The artifact is right here!
Optimus looks at Sam and smiles.
Good work, Sam. You have saved the world!
The two Autobots face off against Megatron, and a fierce battle begins. Sam watches from the sidelines, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment.
Finally, after a long and epic battle, Optimus and Sam are able to defeat Megatron and take control of the artifact. The world is safe, and Sam smiles in satisfaction.
Large crowds of people are gathered in the streets, cheering for Sam Witwicky and the Autobots. Sam is standing, basking in the glory of his victory over the Decepticons.
Suddenly, an older man pushes his way through the crowd. He looks at Sam and smiles.
Congratulations, Sam. You are a true hero.
Sam turns around and is shocked to see his father. They both embrace, and Sam's father speaks.
You have done something amazing, son. You have saved the world.
Sam smiles and looks around, seeing all of the people that he has come to know and care for. He takes a deep breath and basks in the moment.
It wasn't just me. I had a lot of help.
Sam looks to Optimus and Bumblebee, who are standing near by, and he smiles.
SAM (CONT'D)
I couldn't have done it without them.
The crowd cheers, and Sam smiles as he is showered in praise and admiration. Finally, at peace, he knows that he has found his true purpose.

NOTE: The search term will always start with one or more numeric characters and possibly be appended by punctuation or other alpha characters.
I'd deconstruct the values into separate items and then sort by the last item, then next to last, eventually getting to the first.
> NOTE: The search term will always start with one or more numeric characters and possibly be appended by punctuation or other alpha characters.
Hmm, interesting. I'll noodle on that. I also see my email is pretty unreadable without any formatting. Here is a slightly better data example.
Come to think of it no. I didn't notice the items further down in the list with multiple periods. Your problems is very basic: You really have alpha-numeric data, which you are trying to sort numerically. It's a contradiction in terms.
Looking at the nature of your data, and assuming your data is not going to deviate from what you have provided, you have to break out the components of your values into three separate values, the integer portion (if any otherwise 0), the decimal portion (if any otherwise 0) and the alphanumeric portion (assuming that *ALWAYS* comes last).
That's not alphanumerically sorted, nor is it numerically sorted! It's a non-sort!
>> NOTE: The search term will always start with one or more numeric characters and possibly be appended by punctuation or other alpha characters.
Okay I misunderstood. So were it not for the multiple periods in a single value, you could have sorted numeric by word 1 of each, then resorted alphabetically by word 2 of each. The wrench in the works is the double periods. For this you can write a function that builds a string for a value passed and use that in your by each clause. I would extract the integer portion of the value, pad it with a maximum number of trailing zeros, say 10, then append the rest.
So for example 187 becomes 1870000000. 187a becomes 1870000000a. 187.01 mecomes 1870000000.01. 187 (a) becomes 1870000000 (a). And finally, 10187 becomes 1018700000.
This of course cannot be a numeric sort. I would create a loop and start with 1 digit, then see if the value div the value = the value (in a try catch loop). Once you get an error or false, break out the integer portion, pad it with the appropriate number of trailing zeros, then append the rest.
I am missing the rules of the game.
some other, er, sort of chunk.
etc. Are there such rules?
that leading zeros are "valid".
That's why the replace in the following function is needed.
I should have said, in the loop keep adding a character until the value is no longer a number, then sort numeric by the last value.
> This of course cannot be a numeric sort. I would create a loop and start with 1 digit, then see if the value div the value = the value (in a try catch loop). Once you get an error or false, break out the integer portion, pad it with the appropriate number of trailing zeros, then append the rest.
keys, and then sorting on a function that returns the appropriate sort key.
But for now this seems pretty close.
> no longer a number, then sort numeric by the last value.
> pad it with the appropriate number of trailing zeros, then append the rest.
put tData into field "fSort"
Hey guys, thanks for all the possible solutions. I'm sure somewhere in here I'll get it to do what I need. Special thanks to those that wrote code. Much appreciate it!
