Welcome Back
In today's post I will be reviewing;
Making Memories Magnetic Stamp Alphabet & Handle sets.
I bought this stamp set to give me options for the words I could create. The font style is perfect for grunge style that I enjoy so much. The size is ideal for ATC's and the A6 & A7 size cards I create.
The Pro's of these products are;
- You can make any words you choose, from the letter sets
- Additional font styles and word sets available
- You can position the letters on the handles, where ever suits the project
- Rummage is a nice vintage/textured kind of font
- Excellent storage! The handles and font sets are supplied with their own sturdy boxes
The downsides of this product are;
- The weight of the handles, the wide one weighs; 119 grams, the narrow one weighs; 76 grams, and the small one weighs; 28 grams. Not a problem if you have only the occasional word you want to make, but for batch making cards, if you have limited dexterity, then these handles are heavy in the hand. Due to the fact they are metal blocks for the magnetic letters to adhere to.
- When you ink up the stamp, the letters sometimes shift around and you often need to re position them before you stamp.
- Only one set of stamps comes with its own tweezers. That's fine, but have a set of tweezers to hand as they do make it much easier to use & position the letters, which can otherwise be very fiddly to get hold of.
- The stamps need to be separated from each other. They are supplied in two sheets, the sheets are part cut through, but need to be accurately cut to give a good finish. My DH cut mine apart for me, my dexterity isn't that good. You may need to trim back any overhanging 'bur' after you cut them out, otherwise they don't sit so close together on the tool.
Build Quality
Excellent, if you are struggling to get your letters close to each other, trim back any bur left by separating the letters from each other, and they should align well.
Value for Money
Excellent, for the versatility of both the font set and the options of single letter, single line or multiple line of lettering possible with the handles, the kits are a great price. Also the fact that the sets come with their own storage is brilliant.
Would I buy it Again?
Yes, and would recommend these and the rest of the series to anyone who wants versatility and the options of personalizing their projects.
Summing up
It would be nice if there were some kind of groove or similar, to would stop the letters moving around while you ink the stamp up, but that is really the only ongoing niggle with the set. I accept that I need to reposition the letters, after swiping on dye ink, or if you are very gentle dabbing on pigment ink, you might get away with it. This is a much more affordable set than the Just Right sets of positionable stamps. I've had no problems with ink collecting on the edges of the stamp around the outside of the letter, as they are deeply etched. I look forward to collecting the other stamp sets in this series.

Checking in on… the Pac-10Posted by rtmsf on February 24th, 2010
Andrew Murawa is the RTC correspondent for the Mountain West and Pac-10 conferences.
- California 10-5 18-9
- Arizona State 9-5 19-8
- Washington 8-7 18-9
- Arizona 7-7 13-13
- Stanford 7-8 13-14
- Oregon State 6-8 12-14
- Washington State 6-9 16-11
- Oregon 4-10 12-14
We haven't had a Pac-10 update 'round these parts since the conference season began, but it is no secret that the one-word summation of the Pac-10 season to this point is "ugly." The only team with anything at all to say about potentially receiving an at-large bid is California, and it is increasingly likely that if Cal fails to win the Pac-10 tournament, they'll be looking at an NIT bid. For the first time in as far back as I care to research, the only Pac-10 team that will be heading to the NCAA tournament is the team that wins the automatic bid as the Pac-10 tournament champion.
A quick rundown of the teams:
California – The Bears currently top the conference, and of all Pac-10 teams have the best chance at an at-large bid given their RPI in the low 20s and the fourth toughest schedule in the country, but every time it looks like this team is going to reel off a string of victories, they drop a game like they did Thursday when eighth place Oregon State handled them easily in Corvalis, 80-64. The numbers look good for the senior quartet of Jerome Randle, Patrick Christopher, Theo Robertson and Jamal Boykin (60.2 ppg between the four, with all averaging double-figures on the season), but each has been inconsistent this season, such as when Randle went just 2-9 from the field, 0-5 from behind the arc and had four turnovers in the OSU game.
Arizona State – Herb Sendek's squad sits just a half-game back of the Bears in the conference standings, a bit of business that will get sorted out on Saturday when they head to Haas Pavilion, but although they have a top-50 win (something Cal cannot boast) over San Diego State, there just isn't enough there on the ASU resume to really warrant serious at-large consideration. The Sun Devils have gotten as far as they have on the strength of their guard play; senior point Derek Glasser leads the conference in assists, and he and junior point Jamelle McMillan are one-two in the conference in assist-to-turnover ratio.
USC – The Trojans are a team that would be a very tough out in the Pac-10 tournament – that is if the Trojans were going to play in the Pac-10 tournament. In an attempt to throw the NCAA hounds off the trail a bit and to make some sort of restitution for the O.J. Mayo, Reggie Bush and how many other incidents, the USC athletic department decided to self-punish the basketball program, stripping them of their chance to play in the postseason this year. Head coach Kevin O'Neill has done a pretty strong job of keeping his kids together and when the Trojans have come out focused they have been very strong this year (they've split with Cal, taken their one matchup with ASU, and swept Washington and UCLA), but playing out the string has got to be hard for these kids and as a result, they've lost games to Washington State, Oregon and Oregon State, that they might not have lost had a possible NCAA tourney bid been waiting at the end.
Washington – In a season of conference-wide disappointment, the Huskies have got to take home the title of most disappointing Pac-10 team. At the start of the year, Washington was considered something of a co-favorite to win the conference, and seemed to be a team that could make some noise in March. But between then and now, the Huskies have struggled to gain any consistency. They did pull together a four-game win streak in late January/early February, then laid an egg in their big matchup at Cal. Senior forward Quincy Pondexter has likely been the player-of-the-year in the conference (20.3 ppg, 7.9 rpg), but highly-anticipated freshman guard Abdul Gaddy has yet to catch on, and the team has struggled mightily on the road, notching just a 1-6 record so far.
Arizona – At some point in April, right after Sean Miller had accepted the Arizona job, his roster consisted of little more than senior point Nic Wise, junior wing Jamelle Horne, a couple other returning pieces and a boatload of question marks. Miller took advantage of the meltdown at USC and grabbed some of their fleeing castoffs and wound up patching together a pretty strong recruiting class, and actually had this Wildcat team tied for the conference lead not too long ago. Freshman forward Derrick Williams has been the best of the new Cats (15.4 ppg, 6.8 rpg) and while there are growing pains in the future, especially with Wise getting fitted for cap and gown, folks around Tucson are pretty confident that Miller will be able to get this program back to the heights they are used to.
UCLA – The incongruous facts that the Bruins are 7-7 in conference and two games under .500 on the season and that Ben Howland has done a pretty strong job getting his team that far is a good indication of how bad this Bruin team is. As sophomore Jerime Anderson's inability to handle the point guard position became apparent, Howland slid another sophomore, Malcolm Lee, over from the two to play out of position. While Lee is still not particularly well suited to the one, he is a definite improvement there. Likewise, as this group as a whole showed that they were incapable of playing the type of man defense that Howland demands, he switched over to run some zone. Still not a great defensive team, but an improvement. Those types of things sum up this season for UCLA. While you still can't make a silk purse out of a pig's ear, Howland has at least managed to scrape this Bruin squad together to the point where they aren't consistently getting embarrassed.
Stanford – Senior swingman Landry Fields and sophomore guard Jeremy Green have turned into quite a duo up on the farm. They are the highest scoring duo in the Pac-10 (nearly 40 points a game), and Fields is a serious conference Player of the Year candidate. Sophomore Jarrett Mann has also turned into a nice point guard, and between he and Green, head coach Johnny Dawkins doesn't have a whole lot of question marks in the backcourt for next season. The problem for the Cardinal has been the interior game. They are one of the worst rebounding teams (and that despite Fields' second-best in the Pac-10 8.7 rpg) and are the worst shotblocking team in the Pac-10, with only 45 blocks on the season. Dawkins does have some help coming, however, with four forwards already signed in next year's recruiting class.
Oregon State – In Craig Robinson's first season, the Beavers took a major step forward. Certainly another seven-win improvement this season would have been more than anyone could have hoped for, but given the return of much of their roster and the decrease in the overall talent level in the Pac-10, expectations had to be higher than a mere repeat of last season for the Beavers. And yet, that's where they're at now. At this point in 2008-09, the Beavers were 12-13 and 6-8 in the conference. The only difference this year is one additional non-conference loss. Junior guard Calvin Haynes is the OSU leading scorer with 13.2 ppg this year; last year he averaged 13.0. Senior center Roeland Schaftenaar's point totals have dropped slightly, while senior swingman Seth Tarver's are up slightly. In all, it is looking like a huge uptick from Robinson season one to season two followed by a season worth of reruns.
Washington State – Not a lot of fun being a Washington-state sports fan these days. The Sonics are something called a Thunder these days and they play in tornado country somewhere, the Seahawks are at the bottom of the barrel, college football is just about non-existent and their college basketball programs, which were at one point a combined 20-3 this season, have now combined to go 14-17 since then. For the Cougs, sophomore wing Klay Thompson's production has taken a bit of a dive in conference play (he just scored 10 combined points in a homestand against the Southern California schools), although he is still averaging almost 21 ppg this season. But with freshman point Reggie Moore and sophomore bruiser DeAngelo Casto to pair up with Thompson, head coach Ken Bone has a young nucleus around which to build.
Oregon – There are two more Pac-10 conference games that will be played at McArthur Court. While some of Oregon's early-season non-conference games will be played there next season, the Ducks homestand against the Washington schools the final week of the Pac-10 season will close the books on the meaningful games played in that phenomenal building. Some sparkling, brand new beauty of an abomination will "replace" it, but the best atmosphere in the Pac-10 is going away. That's what I'll remember from this Duck season. Beyond that, head coach Ernie Kent totters toward a termination, the roster is full of guys with talent who aren't able to string it together for more than a weekend or two, and Tajuan Porter just missed another wild three. But none of it matters. They're closing Mac Court.

We have a big variety of writing and reading materials in our language/literacy center and our writing center. But I also provide a literacy rich environment in all our other learning centers, as well. All around our room are chart stories and language experience charts that we've made, like this for our apple week.
In every center, you will find a small plastic pencil case with a few notepads, scratch paper and pencils/pens, as well as notebooks or logs. The children may use these however they wish, to record thoughts and ideas.
In our Math center, there are books about math....
a small wall calendar and a large dry erase calendar.
We also have a dry erase writing chart available.
In our Science Center, in addition to books, we have animal fact cards/notebook pages, chalkboards and leaf rubbing materials and life cycle growth cards.
We also have log notebooks for science experiments and observation forms that we use for various experiments. Here's a few available in our centers right now for sensory bottles, sink or float and doctor's exam, including a sheet from Laura at The SEEDS Network
In our art center, a variety of books and magazines are available, along with all the varieties of papers and drawing/writing implements (many of the same materials are pictured below in "Writing Center").
In our dramatic play and home living center, you'll find print rich real and found items,
a food pyramid display on the fridge,
hotel registration cards,
guest check restaurant order pads/ dry erase cards and medical forms (pictured in "Science Center"),
menus and cookbooks, phonebooks,
and magazines and books, in a variety of languages.
Our writing center has the usual writing accessories such as a large variety of pencils, pens, markers, gel pens, chalk stencils and stamps.
There are picture dictionaries available and books about writing.
There are notepads, stationary and envelopes, journals There are also a variety of papers: notebook paper, story paper, as well as whiteboards, chalkboards and MagnaDoodles.
There is even a "Make Your Own Book" box filled with ready to use materials.
And a mailbox to mail important letters.
We have name cards and letter games to make our names and practice literacy skills.
Our block center has a writing box, notepads and pencils, and a large variety of picture books, informational books, car brochures and even notebooks filled with pictures.
There are maps and blueprints
And storybook character blocks to re-enact familiar stories.
We even provide materials for use during our outdoor play time.
Last month, in the post, "Our Pre-K Community" I wrote in more detail about our outdoor sidewalk cafe. Creating outdoor centers has been a really fun addition to our playground time.
My kids love to read, write, paint and create outdoors.
There are so many ways for teachers to promote and support literacy throughout the classroom. Please note that my language and literacy center and writing center have much, much more than I have included here. This is just an overview of what I do to incorporate literacy in other learning centers. I'm always on the look out for freebies and new materials to add to centers. Often, community stores and businesses are willing to share if you ask and tell them you are a teacher.
If you have other ways of promoting literacy in your centers, I'd love for you to share it in the comments!

Syrian rebels have captured two of the three major oilfields in the country's southeastern Deir al Zour province and are extracting oil that they say is helping to support their rebellion. "We are at the beginning of winter, and people need oil to run the bakeries and to heat their homes. The weather is very cold here," said a rebel leader here who, for security reasons, identifies himself by his nom de guerre, Abu Mohamed.
The capture of the fields is another blow to the Syrian government's attempt to offset inflation and shortages of various goods in the areas it still controls. It also has set off a booming oil trade in this impoverished area. Dozens of trucks wait in line 24 hours a day to fill up at rebel-held wells, which produce a light crude that can be burned without refining, though the result is dense smoke. Some farmers insist the unrefined crude can be used to power farm equipment, though it seems primarily to be used for heat.
Some of those waiting in line at one well this week said they'd been waiting for days. Along roadsides and at intersections all over the area, men could be seen reselling the oil from improvised tanker trucks and barrels loaded into the backs of pickups. Abu Mohammed said the price at which the rebels sell the oil is largely a symbolic one, and prices at the various wells in operation appeared to be about $5 a barrel, far below the world price that hovers above $80 a barrel. But it does provide a profit to those who buy it and then resell it elsewhere in the country, where warfare and an international embargo have created a chronic shortage of fuel, made worse as winter sets in and temperatures drop. Last winter, Syrians desperate for heat even burned motor oil in the country's west. "I am a farmer, but this is better," said Ali, a local man who declined to give his last name and said he resells the oil for about $14 a barrel in nearby provinces.
The endeavor is also a dangerous one. On Sunday, people were killed and injured when an explosion occurred at a well here, and that and another well in the area could be seen burning unabated days later, sending plumes of black smoke into the sky. "We know this is not safe work, and it is bad for our health," said Ali. "I have 22 children. What should we do?" Few journalists have visited Zeir al Dour since the rebellion against Syrian President Bashar Assad began 20 months ago, and reports that rebels control the oilfields have come second-hand through statements from rebel sympathizers. But a visit to the region shows that in fact the Syrian government has lost control of much of its crude production facilities. Syria's oil wealth doesn't compare to that of neighboring Iraq, but it was a significant part of the country's economy. The Syrian government until last year still managed to sell some quantity of oil despite international sanctions, though it is unclear if in past months it had been successful in exporting any oil.
"Some barter deals are being made, the government says, although I have not read of recent such actions," said Jihad Yazigi, the editor of The Syria Report, a website that tracks the Syrian economy. Save for inflation data, the Syrian government's economic situation is something of a mystery. "We are working in a data-free environment," Yazigi said. "For more than 18 months we haven't had data on (currency) reserves." Among the groups profiting from the wells are Jabhat al Nusra, whose members have won admiration from some Syrians for their effectiveness as fighters against the government while inspiring fear and suspicion in others because of their calls for a Syrian state based on Islamic law and their alleged links to al Qaida. Rebels have also said they are planning a push into Hasaka province to the north, the country's other major source of crude oil. Abu Mohamed said that two of the three main fields around Deir al Zour – the captured fields are known as al Warde and Taim – are under rebel control, and that rebels would capture the third, Sheikh Omar, after they found engineers who could operate the wells.
Rebels said locating engineers had been a challenge because most of the people who were employed in the oil sector in Syria were Alawites, the religious minority to which President Bashar Assad belongs and who make up about 10 percent of Syria's population. Virtually all of the armed rebels in Syria are Sunni Muslims, who make up the majority of the country's population. A main rebel grievance is that the country's political, economic and military elites have been dominated by Alawites for decades.

Hi all,
I am hoping someone has a solution to this.
I downloaded the UK English spelling file and put it on the memory stick (created a dictionary folder under the Data file on my U3 memory stick. I located the dictionary in the spelling options. But the problem is that the spell checking dictionary location is not being saved. So my question is how do we get the spelling location to stick?

There was a time when StatSpeak was a bastion of pure SABR. With writers like Pizza Cutter, Colin Wyers, Brian Cartwright, and two idiots with a stats software package, you were assured to find plenty of the arcane research we all hunger for.
All good things must come to an end, so the writers all moved on eventually and StatSpeak went dormant. But now, after a second relaunch, it's in the hands of three idiots whose names aren't important. (It should be noted though that Idiot #1 is an aspiring Baseball Man, training under noted former Division III ballplayer, Director of Stadium Operations for the Colorado Sky Sox, and all-around baseball expert Mike Pribbenow.) How much these Idiots have destroyed whatever name Pizza Cutter and company managed built up for StatSpeak is simply staggering.
Just check out today's steaming pile. Or don't.
Even though it's fewer than 200 words, I still haven't read the whole article. All I needed to see was this chart, purporting to show some kind of PITCHf/x data:
And there's still a second chart, which contains more PITCHf/x data.
That's right! One of the Idiots inserted a blank chart into his post twice and still published it. I was afraid the article would be corrected before PB went to press but then I realized that that'll never happen.
Now it's not worth my time to try to figure out which Idiot "redsoxtalk" is, so I'll just say this: please stop blogging, Idiot of Indeterminate Number. It's for the best.

The Surprising Numbers Behind Apps
How much time do people spend with apps? How much money does the average developer make?
You might be surprised by the answers.
All week the Journal answered those questions and more with a new series called "The Business of Apps," which chronicles the industry's economics, the winners and losers and even the seedier side the business.
Here's a look back at some of the most interesting stats from those stories:
First, the big money. The global apps business is expected to make $25 billion in revenue this year, up 62% from a year ago, according to Gartner. To put that in perspective, movie theaters sold less than half of that dollar amount at the box office in 2012.

LOI Abbreviation in Astrology
- LOI (letter L)
You are very romantic, idealistic, and somehow you believe that to love means to suffer. You wind up serving your mate or attracting people who have unusual troubles. You see yourself as your lover's savior. You are sincere, passionate, lustful, and dreamy. You can't help falling in love. You really enjoy stimulating yourself, though you are fairly new to it. You fantasize and get turned on by movies and magazines. You neither tell others of this secret life nor of your sexual fantasies.
- LOI (letter O)
You are very interested in sexual activities yet secretive and shy about your desires. You can re-channel much of your sexual energy into making money and/or seeking power. You can easily have extended periods of celibacy. You are a passionate, compassionate, sexual lover, requiring the same qualities from your mate. Sex is serious business; thus you demand intensity and diversity, and are willing to try anything or anyone. Sometimes your passions turn to possessiveness, which must be kept in check.
- LOI (letter I)
You have a great need to be loved, appreciated. .. Even worshipped. You enjoy luxury, sensuality, and pleasures of the flesh. You look for lovers who know what they are doing. You are not interested in an amateur, unless that amateur wants a tutor. You are fussy and exacting about having your desires satisfied. You are willing to experiment and try new modes of sexual expression.. You bore easily and thus require sexual adventure and change. You are more sensual than sexual, but you are sometimes downright lustful.

"Freak the Freak Out"
Cat's New Boyfriend is the 12th episode of Season 1 of Victorious. It aired on October 8th, 2010. The episode premiered to 2.930 million viewers, the seventh-lowest amount of viewers for a Victorious episode.
The episode starts as Daniel and Tori meet again, and it is revealed that they used to date a year ago. Beck and Jade come by, and learn of Tori and Daniel's past, as well as that he is now dating Cat. Jade finds this incredibly amusing and tries to make things awkward for Tori. Awkwardness abounds as Tori tells Cat the truth about her and Daniel. Cat, though surprised, is assured by both Tori and Daniel that she shouldn't feel bad about dating Daniel as the two seem to be completely over each other.
The next day, Danny appears during lunch at the Asphalt Café. Jade brings up the Kickback, a Saturday night party at Hollywood Arts. Tori's jealousy over Cat and Danny's relationship increases after the two make plans to go to the Kickback together, much to Jade's amusement. Tori also feels envious of Cat after she presents Danny with brownies she has baked. He enjoys Cat's dessert immensely, despite the fact that he told Tori while they were dating that he didn't like brownies (after she presented him with ones she had made). Tori leaves the table with a brownie in her mouth, possibly in jealousy.
The next scene opens with the students partying at the Kickback: Sikowitz is barbecuing mysterious, shady sausages on his car, Danny and Cat are now dancing romantically, and André is getting attention for his smooth feet. Beck and Jade feel his feet and are impressed, expressing the desire to, ahem, follow in his footsteps. Tori then sees Danny and Cat kissing, and she overreacts by pressing the cheese valve & sprays cheese on them. She runs off, humiliated, and is found in the auditorium by Beck and Jade, who question her about the cheese fountain debacle. Tori goes to apologize to both Cat and Danny, although Danny's apology gets out of hand as Danny and Tori kiss. Cat catches them, and she is shocked at first, then she begins to cry and quickly leaves.
Tori keeps trying to talk to Cat in order to explain why she did what she did and to apologize, although Cat is avoiding her. Cat and Tori finally talk, although Tori has to drag her by her foot to the janitor's closet, just to get her to listen. Tori admits that what she did was wrong, and that she didn't do it because she had feelings for Danny but rather because she felt jealous that he and Cat seemed so happy compared to how the two of them had been a year ago. Cat punches Tori after the latter says, "If I were you, I'd punch me right in the face." Cat and Tori make up, however, and Tori isn't hostile towards Cat for hurting her because she believes that she deserved it. Cat takes Tori to the hospital as her nose is bruised badly. Tori has to be X-Rayed.
The subplot of the episode focuses on Trina's newly smooth feet that many of her fellow students are eager to feel, and Robbie wonders what's happening. He later goes to the Vegas' house and discovers that Trina is using exotic Pooka Fish to nibble away the dead skin on her feet, making them smooth. Robbie eventually uses them to treat his feet as well, paying Trina for it. Robbie is now also getting attention at school for his smooth feet, and André wants his feet smoothed as well. André also gets the treatment at the Vegas' house. Beck and Jade soon get their feet "smoothed" as well.
As Tori is awaiting her X-Ray, she and Cat discover that everyone who got their feet "smoothed" are in the hospital. The doctor overseeing their treatment tells Tori and Cat that they they've contracted Myroleticulitus, a virus that attacks the nervous system from the fish saliva, which is toxic and full of bacteria. The doctor gets angered at Trina for using pooka fish for her feet smoothening until he feels Trina's foot at her suggestion. The doctor and nurses, however, agree that everyone's feet are, in fact, very smooth. As Tori, Cat, the doctor, and the nurses feel each of the feet, Trina is shown vomiting inside a plastic bucket the hospital gave her at the end of the episode.
- The phrase 'smooth as a baby's butt' was also used in a previous episode, Robarazzi.
- This episode marks the second time that Tori gets hit, excluding Stage Fighting. The first time was in Jade Dumps Beck, when Trina whacked Tori by accident with a tennis racket.
- When Tori was in the hospital for her nose, it was the first time blood was shown on Victorious.
- Sinjin is mentioned but doesn't actually appear in this episode.
- When Beck and Jade are searching for Tori, Jade impersonates Luther from the 1979 gang movie "The Warriors."
- This is the second time Beck visits the Vegas' house, the first being Tori Takes Requests #2.
- In the scene when Tori is sitting at a table with Danny, Cat, Jade, and Beck, she is wearing the same plaid red shirt with blue squares she wore in Robarazzi.
- The brownies Cat gave to Danny are actually store-bought, Cosmic Brownies.
- Sikowitz seems to think it is funny when Robbie and Tori ask what kind of meat he is grilling. This implies he put something odd in the sausage or that that the "meat" is not actually meat.
- In one of the scenes where Robbie is showing off his smooth foot, his shirt resembles Tetris.
- Sikowitz is grilling out of the trunk of a Volkswagen Beetle.
- When Sikowitz runs over to fix the spraying hot cheese fountain, you can clearly hear him say, "What the hambones?". However, on closed captioning, it shows that he says "What the hell?"
- Danny is played by Matt Angel, who played Wayne-Wayne in the Big Time Rush episode Big Time Bad Boy. Big Time Rush is another show by Nickelodeon and Sony Music.
- Tori wears the same outfit that she wore in her video profile on TheSlap.
- Descriptions for the episode on guides mistake Danny as Michael and refer to him as Trina's boyfriend who is two-timing her with Cat.
- Cat is the only one who wasn't shown wanting to do the pooka fish.
- It is never revealed why Tori broke up with Daniel.
- This is the third time Tori makes Cat cry. The first time was "Tori the Zombie" and the second time was "Wi-Fi in the Sky."
- The episode premiered to 2.9 million viewers, better than the previous episode but still the second straight episode to get less than 3 million viewers.
- Elements of the plot of the iCarly episodes iDate a Bad Boy and iSaw Him First can be seen in this episode.
- When Sikowitz walks by Cat and Tori, he asks them if they can believe he got tickets to Hall & Oates. Hall & Oates is a singing duo made up by Daryl Hall and John Oates who have written popular songs like "Private Eyes" and "Rich Girl."
- When Cat and Tori are at the hospital, the doctor who told Tori what happened to Trina and her friends is the same doctor that "treats" Rex in Rex Dies.
- In one of her posts from TheSlap, Cat revealed Daniel was mad that she didn't show up at his house for Valentine's Day Dinner: apparently, she didn't even know she was still dating him. This could imply that she and Daniel made-up at some point at the end of the episode. Going by later comments in the season, they are still dating by the time of The Wood but broke up by the time of Sleepover at Sikowitz's.
- Beck and Jade are involved in all plots of the episode (the main plot, and the subplot). However, though they weren't actually involved (like they aren't the main focus of the plots) in the plots, they still appear in both of them.
- When Trina asks Tori, "You wanna try the Pooka fish?" Tori answers, "Is there rice and soy sauce?". She is sarcastically asking if it is sushi.
- Beck wears the same yellow and black plaid shirt he wears in Stage Fighting.
- Trina returns after two absences.
- According to Cat, there were hidden cameras in the janitor's closet. So the conversation of Tori and Cat was recorded and posted on TheSlap.
- The part of the conversation where Tori and Danny are talking about how weird it is for girls to wear skirts over jeans might be a reference to Jade's first What I Hate video, where she mentions girls who dress like that as something she despises.
- There is a better chance, however, that it refers to Season 2 of Zoey 101 where Victoria Justice's character, Lola Martinez, infrequently wore skirts over jeans.
- Cat is the only one of the main cast who isn't in the hospital for medical purposes in the end.
- When Robbie says to Tori that she "played smushy face with her [Cat's] boyfriend" and Jade says "Those things upset some girls", these lines imply that Robbie and Jade could've gone to check on Cat after that happened or heard it from Danny or Tori.
- Jade's line might be a reference to the Pilot when Tori kissed Beck.
- The name of Tori's old school (Sherwood) is mentioned for the first time.
- This is the first episode to feature a love interest for Tori, unless you include Beck in Pilot.
- Ending Tagline: "THAT is a quality foot." - Robbie
- This is the first time that Cat's name is mentioned in the title.
- Sikowitz warned Lane about the dangers of hot cheese at a high-school dance. Lane looked sheepish when Sikowitz rubbed it in his face after the Tori incident.
- Dragging someone on the floor can create abrasions on their back, although this may not have happened in the acting sequence.
- When Tori sprays hot cheese on Daniel and Cat, they don't see her do it, but they seem to know she did afterward.
- If Danny still attends Sherwood High, then it doesn't make sense why he is able to visit Cat at Hollywood Arts in the morning.
- Unless he stopped by on his way to Sherwood High
- When Tori drags Cat into the Janitor's closet, Tori didn't turn the handle and it automatically opened. Tori couldn't have reached it and Tori's hands were on Cat's feet. Though the door could've been slightly ajar.
- When Cat ran away from Tori, she is seen throwing a water bottle from her hand. However, in the previous shot, she had no water bottle on her hand.
- Although exposed to the fish at different times, those who used the fish all ended up showing symptoms at the same time.
- Although Trina was the only one puking, and she was exposed to the fish first, it's possible that no one else experienced puking yet.
- When Beck and Jade are kissing, Jade puts her hand on Beck's head, but when the camera switch, her hand is no longer there and her sweater sleeve is covering her hand.
- When Tori first sees Cat and Danny making out, Cat is facing Tori's direction, but when she leaves, Cat is suddenly facing away from her.
- Cat and Daniel would have been severely burned from the hot cheese.
- Cat says she baked brownies for Danny, but you can see that they were store-bought.
Running Gags
- Characters using the phrases "a million tiny fish kisses", and "like a baby's butt.
- Characters getting their feet smoothed (Trina, Robbie, André, Beck, Jade).
- Jade acting strange every time Daniel is around to make Tori feel awkward.
- Cat kissing Daniel every time Tori is around.

Robbie: [To Tori] Have you tried the hot cheese fountain?
Tori: No.
Robbie: They have a hot cheese fountain.
Tori: Okay.
Tori: I've left Cat 5 voice mails and 12 text messages. Why won't Cat talk to me?
André: Cause you squirted hot cheese in her ear.
Robbie: And played smushy face with her boyfriend.
Jade: Those things upset some girls.
Trina: You wanna try the puka fish?
Tori: You got rice and soy sauce?
Trina: No.
Tori: Then NO!
Tori: I swear Cat what I did was so wrong and if I were you I would just punch me in the face.
[Cat punches her nose]
Tori: OW! CAT! You punched me right in the face!
Cat: You said too.
Tori: That's just a thing people say and ow....!!!

Proper Use of Loestrin 1/20 – Ethinyl Estradiol And Norethindrone (Oral Route)
To make using oral contraceptives as safe and reliable as possible, you should understand how and when to take them and what effects may be expected.
This medicine comes with patient instructions. Read and follow these instructions carefully. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
This medicine is available in blister packs with a Dialpak® tablet dispenser. Each blister pack contains 28 tablets with different colors that need to be taken in the same order as directed on the blister pack.
When you begin using this medicine, your body will require at least 7 days to adjust before a pregnancy will be prevented. Use a second form of contraception, such as a condom, spermicide, or diaphragm, for the first 7 days of your first cycle of pills.
Take this medicine at the same time each day. Birth control pills work best when no more than 24 hours pass between doses.
Do not skip or delay taking your pill by more than 24 hours. If you miss a dose, you could get pregnant. Ask your doctor for ways to help you remember to take your pills or about using another method of birth control.
You may feel sick or nauseated, especially during the first few months that you take this medicine. If your nausea is continuous and does not go away, call your doctor.
The dose of this medicine will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of this medicine. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.
Your doctor may ask you to begin your dose on the first day of your menstrual period (called Day 1 start) or on the first Sunday after your menstrual period starts (called Sunday start). When you begin on a certain day it is important that you follow that schedule, even if you miss a dose. Do not change your schedule on your own. If the schedule that you use is not convenient, check with your doctor about changing it. For a Sunday start, you need to use another form of birth control (eg, condom, diaphragm, spermicide) for the first 7 days.
You should begin your next and all subsequent 28-day regimens of therapy on the same day of the week as the first regimen began and follow the same schedule.
For oral dosage form (tablets):
For contraception (to prevent pregnancy):
Adults and teenagers –
- Modicon®: One white tablet taken at the same time each day for 21 consecutive days followed by one green (inert) tablet daily for 7 days per menstrual cycle.
- Ortho-novum®: One white or peach tablet taken at the same time each day for 21 consecutive days followed by one green (inert) tablet daily for 7 days per menstrual cycle.
- Children – Use and dose must be determined by your doctor.
- Adults and teenagers –
- For contraception (to prevent pregnancy):
Missed Dose
Call your doctor or pharmacist for instructions.
This medicine has specific patient instructions on what to do if you miss a dose. Read and follow these instructions carefully and call your doctor if you have any questions.
Use a second form of birth control for 7 days after you miss a dose, to prevent pregnancy.
Make sure your doctor knows if you miss your period 2 months in a row, because this could mean that you are pregnant.
You may not have a period for that month if you miss more than one dose or change your schedule.
You could have light bleeding or spotting if you do not take a pill on time. The more pills you miss, the more likely you are to have bleeding.
Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light. Keep from freezing.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Do not keep outdated medicine or medicine no longer needed.
Ask your healthcare professional how you should dispose of any medicine you do not use.
It is very important that your doctor check your progress at regular visits to make sure this medicine is working properly and does not cause unwanted effects. These visits will usually be every 6 to 12 months, but some doctors require them more often. Your doctor may also want to check your blood pressure while taking this medicine.
Although you are using this medicine to prevent pregnancy, you should know that using this medicine while you are pregnant could harm the unborn baby. If you think you have become pregnant while using the medicine, tell your doctor right away. Make sure your doctor knows if you have had a baby within 4 weeks before you start using this medicine.
Vaginal bleeding of various amounts may occur between your regular menstrual periods during the first 3 months of use. This is sometimes called spotting when slight, or breakthrough bleeding when heavier.
- If this should occur, continue with your regular dosing schedule.
- The bleeding usually stops within 1 week. Check with your doctor if the bleeding continues for more than 1 week.
- If the bleeding continues after you have been taking hormonal contraceptives on schedule and for more than 3 months, check with your doctor.
Check with your doctor right away if you miss a menstrual period. Missed periods may occur if you skip one or more tablets and have not taken your pills exactly as directed. If you miss two periods in a row, talk to your doctor. You might need a pregnancy test.
If you suspect that you may be pregnant, stop taking this medicine immediately and check with your doctor.
Do not use this medicine if you smoke cigarettes or if you are over 35 years of age. If you smoke while using birth control pills, you increase your risk of having a blood clot, heart attack, or stroke. Your risk is even higher if you are over age 35, if you have diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or if you are overweight. Talk with your doctor about ways to stop smoking. Keep your diabetes under control. Ask your doctor about diet and exercise to control your weight and blood cholesterol level.
Using this medicine may increase your risk of having blood clotting problems. Check with your doctor right away if you have pain in the chest, groin, or legs, especially the calves, difficulty with breathing, a sudden, severe headache, slurred speech, a sudden, unexplained shortness of breath, a sudden unexplained shortness of breath, a sudden loss of coordination, or vision changes while using this medicine.

Two persons who conspired to kidnap a 8-year-old pupil of the University Primary School, Legon, has been arrested in a joint effort by the Ayi Mensah and Legon Police.
The two, Andrews Oppong, 24 and Kwasi Ntow, 17, have since been caged at the Legon District Police Headquarters.
They have been slapped with the charges of conspiracy to kidnap and attempted kidnapping.
Barring any difficulty, the suspects would make their first appearance at the Madina District Magistrate Court today.
Seventeen-year old Kwasi Ntow was hired as a caretaker of the 8-year old pupil by his parents upon the recommendations of his uncle who lived in the same vicinity with the couple at Legon.
He was assigned to take the little boy to and from school to the house while he underwent mechanic apprenticeship as part of his remuneration.
Confirming the story, Chief Superintendent Wilfred Kwadwo Anning, the Legon District Commander, said Ntow arrived from a village near Aburi in the Eastern Region to begin his job on Monday February 18, 2013 in the home of the complainant.
The complainant quickly ensured he began his apprenticeship after conferring with him over the kind of vocation he would like to pursue.
All necessary arrangements were made and within the two days , he had begun his apprenticeship as promised.
On February 19, 2013, Ntow took the little boy to school and picked him at 3:00pm.
On February 20, however, when Ntow got to the school of the boy, he was met by Andrews Oppong who he had worked with before on a construction site at Tesano as a labourer.
Ntow then introduced Oppong to the chap as an uncle.
Oppong reportedly discussed with Ntow that he needed a human being for some sort of connection and promised Ntow that if everything went on smoothly, he would be rewarded handsomely with GHC3000.
He then gave Ntow GH¢10 and the two parted.
Ntow, instead of going back to pick the boy at school, relocated to his village and left the boy in the school till 7:00pm when Oppong showed up purportedly as the boy's uncle to pick him.
His demeanor, however, betrayed him when security details on guard sought to quiz him. He took to his heels further deepening the suspicions of the guards.
Alas the complainant suddenly abandoned his travel that evening to Takoradi just to check on his son and Ntow only to be met with the strange absence of the two at home while his doors were left ajar.
Several calls placed to Ntow's phone were ignored. The complainant, therefore, tasked Ntow's uncle to either fish him out or risk being held for stealing his son.
Luck, however, smiled on him when Ntow finally answered his uncle's call and explained he had gone back to his village without the boy.
The boy was picked from the school whereupon his father was briefed on what had transpired.
The complainant, therefore, reported the case to the Ayi Mensah Police who monitored and arrested Ntow and handed him over to the Legon Police.
The legon Police also managed to arrest Andrews Oppong.

Looking for a Walking Holiday in Italy?
Wayfarer Experiences offers several different walking tours through the picturesque and captivating country of Italy.
We are Family owned and Operated, we walk it and sort it.
Passion for Italy, which is why we have started our business in Italy… we plan on expanding further within Italy in the future and also into other countries in which we have traveled as a family.
The walks are designed to leave plenty of time to relax and enjoy the experience of culture, wine, food and people. That's why we are not targeting long walks for hardened hikers, but rather 2.5 to 4 hour daily walks for those who have the fitness, but will leave plenty of energy to enjoy the experiences within the small towns along the way.
- These walks place you in the countryside, for most of the walk. You don't see or pass many people and can enjoy the scenery without the large crowds… its all about the experience at Wayfarers.
- We have chosen accommodation that fits with the history and culture of where you are walking. Including lovely buildings that are centuries old. Some people may have limited English (and therefore place you within the culture of Italy), but don't worry, we have the back up of some basic words to use just in case. Or if you are in a bit of trouble you have the Italian mobile phone to call our Italian support person. But, you will find with just a little effort you will have things sorted.
- Group size is between two and eight. Each tour is available for your group, only. If you get the tour first and wish to open it up for others, then we can also do this… otherwise it's all yours.
Our walking tours are safe and are checked regularly to ensure that all information provided is as current as it can be. We have designed a clear and easy way to find your way through the fields and forests that anybody can easily follow. We provide an Italian mobile phone to your group – important contact numbers are pre-programmed into the phone, including that of an Italian support person.
Other than being picked up and dropped off by bus, you are free to do whatever you want…All you have to do is get from one town to the next on the day, at your leisure. We provide information about the history, food, wines and culture of where you are walking.
As a Self Guided Tour you get the benefit of being your own group and doing what it is you want to do. e.g leave the towns each day whenever you wish (although we do recommend leaving at a time that will allow you to lunch at your next destination).
- If something happens to impact a person or the whole group to be able to walk on any day, the van moving your bags can provide transportation to the next destination.
We have all the basics covered so you can focus on where to walk, talk, eat and drink.

It is the time of the year to feel happy … time to be generous … time to spend time with loved ones … and sing festively. Are you not in the mood this season? Don't worry, you are not alone. Many people find the holidays very stressful and sometimes even sad. Social engagements and family gatherings add another time commitment to already busy days. Gift giving puts pressure on already strapped budgets. Expectations of how you should be enjoying this time of year only make you feel worse. All of these feelings are magnified and complicated by cancer treatment during the holidays.
There are things you can do to help yourself get through the holidays and maybe even enjoy them a bit. Self care is important throughout the year, but during a stressful period it must be a priority.
1) Get Adequate Rest
Making sure you get adequate sleep nightly is key!
- Adults need 7-9 hours every night and children need 10 – 12 hours of sleep each night.
- Set a bedtime, and get out of bed every morning at the same time.
- Don't drink caffeine after lunch.
- Limit alcohol to one drink at dinner.
- Avoid stressful conversations after dinner.
- Enjoy a relaxation routine in the hour before bed.
Relaxation routines depend on what works best for you, but consider stretching, breathing slowly, writing in a gratitude journal or listening to gentle music. For more information on the importance of adequate sleep and rest, visit the National Sleep Foundation's website.
2) Pay Close Attention To Your Diet
Another key aspect of self care is attention to diet and exercise.
- Fill your plate with colorful foods, mostly fruits and vegetables.
- Eat only one plate of food at each meal.
- Enjoy a holiday dessert, but a small serving is enough.
- Cook with family, enjoy the conversation in the kitchen, but wait to put food in your mouth until you sit down to the meal.
- Instead of soda, drink warm tea or cider.
- After the meal, take a walk. Take a walk 3 times a day. Bring someone on the walk whose company you enjoy.
3) Listen To Music You Like
If elevator carols make you crazy, actively search for music you actually like, maybe Celtic tunes, old country or Jamaican steel drums, and turn that on whenever you can.
4) Try Alternative Gifts This Year
- If your budget is tight, make gifts this year. Paint on canvas, write a poem, organize a scrapbook of old pictures, or cook a new dish. Or offer a service, such as walking a dog, watching children, delivering meals, or organizing a closet.
- If wrapping presents makes you grumpy, spend time finding wrapping paper you like. Design your own paper. Make your own cloth bags that can be reused. Wrap in plain paper and finger paint it.
5) Turn Your Hospital Experience Around
If going to the hospital or clinic during the holidays brings you down, try to turn the experience around. The staff is always asking you questions, how about you ask them a couple? Ask the front desk, the valet, the nurse what they like about the holidays, what music they like, and what time of year they prefer.
6) Take Time Out Each Day to Be Positive, Relax and Breathe
- Every day, take time to breathe. Turn off the TV and computer. Sit down, stretch your head to the sky, softly close your eyes, relax your shoulders, breathe in through your nose slowly and out slowly through your mouth. Say to yourself, "I can breathe, I can do it."
- Every day remind yourself, "I am here today, I am going to find one thing I like today to make this day worthwhile." Small things count. Notice a tree, feel the cool air, smile at someone.
7) Treat Yourself to an Alternative Therapy
Get a massage, try a Tai Chi or yoga class, consider acupuncture, drink green tea, or add turmeric to your favorite vegetable stir-fry. Many health benefits of alternative and complementary medicine are described at nccam.nih.gov. Be sure to check with your physician before you begin any new exercise programs, and let your physician know about any supplements you take.
To truly make a difference in the way you feel, make the effort daily to do some of the things mentioned above. You don't need to do them all, but pick three things and make the commitment to do them every day!
Best wishes for a healthy and happy holiday season and New Year!
