This season, Samantha (Montgomery) is summoned to appear at the Witches Convention in Salem; Darrin (Sargent) is taken to jail when the authorities think he stole a bedwarmer; and Samantha's Aunt Esmeralda (Ghostley) takes an original Paul Revere teapot. Endora (Moorehead) changes Darrin into an old man; Tabitha (Erin Murphy) meets a real live fairy when she loses her first tooth; and Samantha's wacky cousin Serena is up to no good - again.
Bewitched: Season 6 clip - starring Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick Sargent, David White, Agnes Moorehead.
Bewitched clip - starring Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York, David White, Agnes Moorehead.
The Steven's return to a colorful season as their daughter discovers her "powers", much to the dismay of Darrin. Season 3 promises side-splitting laughter and magical entertainment.
After a witchcraft-filled European vacation, some surprising news about their son Adam leaves Darrin and Samantha facing the prospect of raising two very extraordinary children.
The magic on Morning Glory Circle continues as Samantha (Elizabeth Montgomery), Darrin (Dick Sargent), and Endora (Agnes Moorehead) return in Bewitched - The Complete Sixth Season. Notable for being Dick Sargent's first season as Darrin. Samantha, a powerful member of the society of witches that has lived apart from (and disdained) humanity for many centuries, falls in love with a mortal, Darrin Stephens. Much to the disgust of most of her family, she vows to give up witchcraft and become an ordinary suburban housewife, raising a family (bearing Tabitha and Adam).
The Stephens are still at Morning Glory Circle and creating as much laughs as ever in the complete fifth season. Come join the fun and enjoy Dick York's final season as Darrin.
Samantha, a powerful member of the society of witches that has lived apart from (and disdained) humanity for many centuries, falls in love with a mortal, Darrin Stephens. Much to the disgust of most of her family, she vows to give up witchcraft and become an ordinary suburban housewife, raising a family (bearing Tabitha and Adam). Never able to give up her heritage completely, the friction between the matriarchal, moneyless society of her birth and the patriarchal, capitalist society of modern advertising drives the comedy over eight seasons and 256 episodes, from 1964 to 1971.
Everybody's favorite witch is back in the fourth season of Bewitched. Darrin must endure all the new people that Samantha, Endora and the rest of her family conjure up in this hilarious season of Bewitched!
In the hilarious second season of Bewitched, the Steven's are back, along with their new baby girl Tabitha. Endora still terrorizes Darrin and some new family members decide to drop in.
BEWITCHED stars Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha, an average, everyday housewife, mother... and witch. Her husband is Darrin (Dick York/Dick Sargent), ad agency executive, harried husband and mere mortal. The marriage between this lovable witch and bumbling human is nothing short of hilarious. Their lives are complicated by Endora (Agnes Moorehead), the world's witchiest mother-in-law. Despite having promised Darrin never to use witchcraft, Samantha often finds that slipping in a little magic is unavoidable in this beguiling and bewitching comedy.
In every way, Samantha and Darrin Stephens are a perfectly normal, all-American couple, except for one small detail...Samantha's a witch! And although she promised to never to use her powers, she can't seem to resist to get out of a jam.

St. Andrews University History
In September 1961, the first students stepped onto the grounds of a spacious, lake-centered campus that only a short time earlier had been named St. Andrews Presbyterian College. Long before the arrival of those first students, Presbyterians across North Carolina, laity and clergy, had committed themselves to this new adventure in higher education.
The history of St. Andrews began in 1896 with the founding of Flora Macdonald College in Red Springs, NC. In 1958, Flora Macdonald College merged with Presbyterian Junior College in Maxton, NC, to establish St. Andrews. In 1996, St. Andrews celebrated the Centennial Anniversary of its heritage by hosting a series of events and celebrations. In honor of the occasion, 800 plus alumni, faculty, students, staff and friends, gathered for this birthday party to recognize the shared history of the three institutions.
The history of St. Andrews offers a consistent record of academic innovation, recognitions and accomplishments far out of proportion to the college's small size and limited human and financial resources. It has repeatedly demonstrated an ability to recognize needs which were not being met by the prevalent higher education cannon of pedagogical strategies, texts, programs or assumptions. It has also combined its visionary thinking with successful academic planning to translate insights into concrete, efficacious higher education innovation.

I have found your posts and blogs very helpful. I do have a question about your current talent choices? Does getting the 4% increase in attack going into master shape shifter improve your threat vs. points in Feral Instinct? Is this spec more for damage out put, mitigation, or a balance?
Is this a spec any druid could do, or is it based on your current gear and available healing in raids?
Just wanted to express a sincere thank you! I refer to TS and your guide for questions about items and anything as far as feral tanking.

A gyrocompass is designed to find and point to true north, however in this case I think there is too much friction, and not enough rotational inertia for it to work.
I'll run through the theory and build anyway, and maybe somebody will have a suggestion to get it working? or will be able to build one better!
What it does now, is look really cool, spin up to around 12,000 rpm, and maintain its current heading. Because it maintains its heading while the base is moved, the degree markings can be used to obtain the new heading with respect to the original. In this way it can be used as a dead reckoning navigator. It is also very educational, I already knew theoretically how a gyro worked, but this puts it into perspective a lot better.
What you need:
2 hard drives
Assorted materials to create brackets/gimbals, I used brass and aluminium
Depending on your hard drive circuitry, you may also need a BLDC motor controller.
Equipment required:
Hand tools for dissasembly/assembly (hard drive take torx head screwdriver bits)
Metal working equipment to make brackets and gimbals
But on the plus side, it can hold it's current heading for at least four hours!
Thanks for your comments though.

Morning Guys/Gals
I have been asked to look into sorting out a video editing solution for the school. There have been talks of macs but after specing up a half decent mac pro (quad core, 4gb ram, dual screens, 2 TB HDD etc) it came to over £4,000. They nearly died. Iv read through a lot of threads on here on the subject and it does seem the macs are more often than not, very expensive.
Apart from anything else I wouldnt know how to link it in to our vanilla 2k3 network. Getting it talking to the fileserver etc etc.
I would much rather go down the PC route and get the same hardware for half the price. I am just a bit stumped on the software as everyone raves on about macs + video editing = win. From what iv been told you can do almost everything on a PC as you can on a mac these days. It has to be relativly simple so students (and more to the point TEACHERS) can use it. We have movie maker but are looking for something a little more 'pro'.
What are your opinions?
As far as the hardware, will prob get a high spec Dell as we have nearly 600 of them so why stop now? :) I can also get them for a damn good price.
Thanks Guys

I spent some time this week with the kids discussing Leadership, and what are the attributes of the great leaders. By listing these attributes and making them known, the children know what is expected of them now, and in the future. The main points that came out of this are as follows;
- Great leaders are not necessarily the most popular, and the most popular leaders are not necessarily the greatest leaders.
- A great leader is someone who takes a stand, and who is prepared to defend that position.
- A great leader has integrity. A great leader would never do something that he wouldn't be able to go home and explain to his children. He cannot be bribed or lobbied to change his position on a subject just because he is offered money or status.
- A great leader has consistency. You have to be able to change with the times, and change when your role changes, but you shouldn't be turning around every month and picking up the latest fads and fashionable causes.
- A great leader gives credit. If an employee comes up with a great idea, a great leader will make sure that everyone else knows.
- A great leader recruits better people than himself. "If you employ your successor, you'll never be succeeded" (me, 2008). If you employ great people, you can rise in the organization because you are no longer indispensable.
- A great leader is willing to admit mistakes. There's a famous saying; "If you've never made a mistake, you've never made anything at all." We all get things wrong; or the people working for us get things wrong. But that's not the issue; it's what you do about it. You can spend you efforts trying to fix the blame on someone else, or you can admit fault, and spend your efforts on trying to fix the error. Fix the problem, or fix the blame. A great leader will fix the problem, and admitting an error rather than hiding it will engender great loyalty in followers.
- A great leader is decisive. He will listen, and then act. All great leaders need a small group of trusted advisers (Hello Kat, if you're reading!); this group will have many of the same attributes as a great leader, but will also be specialists in their particular fields. When giving advice, their loyalty will be to the leader, not to any outside source. When taking advice, the great leader will listen to all viewpoints, then make HIS decision, and stand by it.
It's a tall order to match all these requirements, which is why there are so few leaders in today's society – at all levels.
Note that we didn't include anything about technical ability in the above. For most jobs out there, technical ability can be purchased; you want to be a great CIO? Employ great technicians. Yes, you'll need a broad understanding of a business area, but that can come from your team of advisers. In fact, if you have too much technical ability in a field you'll need to be aware of the tendency to become more of a manager than a leader, because you'll often think that you can do it better than the people who work for you.
So, is a manager a leader?
All leaders must be managers, because they have people and things to manage (companies, states, countries). A manager is rarely a leader – we have far more managers than leaders, and often a manager is just a trained expert. In many companies, experts in certain areas end up as managers because that's the only way the company can think to reward them; so instead of having highly paid experts doing a world-class job, they end up with highly paid experts who are managing other experts – something they neither want to do, or are trained to do. This leads to the Peter Principle (named after Dr. Laurence J. Peter, not Peter Connolly!), which is that every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence. Employees are rewarded with promotions as they do well in a company, until they reach a position in which they are not a success, and whereby their career stalls.
Managers are taught. Leaders are born.
True, but a born leader in the wrong environment will take much longer to come to the fore, and may even be a bent leader. A person taught to be a leader from a young age will succeed to some degree and have some amount of influence. If we get a born leader who is raised correctly, we will have a (literal) world leader on our hands.

Up to 70% of cases of breast cancer have mutations in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway; hyperactivation of this pathway can contribute to endocrine resistance1-5
*Median PFS was 7.8 months with AFINITOR plus exemestane [95% CI, 6.9-8.5] vs 3.2 months [95% CI, 2.8-4.1] with placebo plus exemestane (HR=0.45 [95% CI, 0.38-0.54]; P<0.0001).1
AFINITOR® is indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer (advanced HR+ BC) in combination with exemestane after failure of treatment with letrozole or anastrozole.
Important Safety Information
- AFINITOR is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to everolimus, other rapamycin derivatives, or any excipients
- There have been reports of noninfectious pneumonitis, infections, and renal failure (including acute renal failure) in patients taking AFINITOR, some with fatal outcomes
- Oral ulceration is the most frequently occurring adverse event and occurred in 44% to 78% of AFINITOR-treated patients across the clinical trial experience. Most of these events were grade 1/2. Grade 3/4 stomatitis was reported in 4% to 9% of patients
- Exercise caution with the use of AFINITOR in the perisurgical period, as everolimus delays wound healing and increases the occurrence of wound-related complications
- In the randomized advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer study, the incidences of deaths due to any cause within 28 days of the last AFINITOR dose and adverse reactions leading to permanent treatment discontinuation were greater in patients ≥65 years of age compared with patients <65 years of age
- Elevations of serum creatinine, proteinuria, glucose, lipids, and triglycerides, and reductions of hemoglobin, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and platelets have also been reported; monitoring of laboratory tests is recommended
- The use of live vaccines and close contact with those who have received live vaccines should be avoided
- AFINITOR can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman
Please see additional Important Safety Information.
Please see full Prescribing Information for AFINITOR.

2014 Art Lecture Series
El Greco, Goya & Sorolla: Three Artistic Visions
Presented by Marcus B. Burke, Ph.D., Senior Curator
The Hispanic Society of America
El Greco
Thursday, October 9th
El Greco (Dominikos Theotokopoulos, 1541-1614) was the most important late Renaissance artist in Spain, influenced by Titian, Tintoretto, and Michelangelo while in Venice and Rome.
The lecture will include El Greco's most famous works, emphasizing those on view in New York in anticipation of the upcoming joint exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art this November. This pooling of the collections of the Met and The Hispanic Society of America commemorates the 400th anniversary of the death of El Greco. The Old Master, whose works continue to startle with their emotional power and painterliness, is now understood to have been a harbinger of modernism, capturing artistic imaginations centuries later.
Thursday, October 16th
Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was one of the first great modern artists, and is the giant in Spanish art at the end of the Enlightenment and the beginning of Romanticism.
The lecture will emphasize the means that Goya uses to convey ideas in his pictures, both complicated political and philosophical ideas and information about the people he depicted. Notably, his canvas The Duchess of Alba (ill.) remained in his studio until his death because of the special relationship he had with his patron. The luscious beauty of his works, and the radical artistic and technical means he brought to their creation, will of course be included as well.
Thursday, October 30th
Joaquín Sorolla (1863-1923) was the foremost Spanish artist, and surely the best-known internationally, at the turn of the twentieth century – his exhibition at the Hispanic Society in New York attracted 160,000 people in four weeks of February 1909. Sorolla combined plein air realism with Impressionist techniques to produce images of ravishing beauty, including landscapes, beach scenes (ill.), portraits, and images on social themes.
The two institutions with the most works by Sorolla are his house museum in Madrid and The Hispanic Society of America in New York, the treasures of which will be the subject of the lecture.

2013 Art Lecture Series
The Rite of Modernism: Sensation and Shock in New York/Paris 1913
One hundred years ago, on both sides of the Atlantic, two seminal events occurred which were breakthroughs in the worlds of art and music — forever altering the cultural landscape of the 20th century. Over the course of four weeks, in the Winter of 1913, close to 75,000 people made their way to the 69th Regiment Armory on Lexington Avenue at 25th Street to visit the International Exhibition of Modern Art which was organized by the "Association of American Painters and Sculptors." The critics' columns were full of descriptions of the "grotesque" paintings that had been shipped over from Europe. It caused a sensation. Image: "Nude Descending a Staircase (No. 2)" 1912 Marcel Duchamp, Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Less than four months later, the inaugural performance of Diaghilev's "The Rite of Spring," orchestrated by the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky, premiered at the Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris. On opening night, a riot almost broke out among the audience, threatening the dancers and musicians with their shouts, hisses and catcalls.
Our 2013 series relives this fascinating period, beginning with an afternoon lecture exploring this musical modernism, with the three remaining morning lectures delving into the 1913 Armory Show, the most important art exhibition in the history of the United States. Read further details of this period and explore related videos and exhibits through this link.
Musical Scandals of 1913: The Modernism of Igor Stravinsky and Arnold Schoenberg
Thursday, September 26th
Presented by Christopher H. Gibbs Ph.D.
James H. Ottaway, Jr. Professor of Music at Bard College. Co-Artistic Director Bard Music Festival. Co-Author The Oxford History of Western Music 2013 with Richard Taruskin.
"The Rite of Spring" in Paris and the "SkandalKonzert" in Vienna marked the birth of musical modernism, drastically breaking with centuries of musical traditions. Composer collaborations with leading artists of the day created a charged synergy that enervated both the worlds of art and music. Image: "Portrait of Igor Stravinsky" 1920 Pablo Picasso, Musee Picasso, Paris, France.
Walter Pach and French Art and Artists in the 1913 Armory Show
Thursday, October 17th
Presented by Laurette E. McCarthy Ph.D.
Independent Scholar and Curator. Author, Walter Pach (1883 – 1958): The Armory Show and the Untold Story of Modern Art in America.
The insider in Paris, Pach was essential in bringing the European modernists to New York, thus making the Armory Show the most important art exhibition in the history of the United States. As critic, agent, and liaison, his work helped win the acceptance of modern art throughout North America. Image: Walter Pach, 1909. Photograph by Pach Brothers. Walter Pach papers, 1857–1980. Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution.
Revisiting "The New Spirit: American Art in the Armory Show, 1913"
Thursday, October 24th
Presented by Gail Stavitsky Ph.D.
Chief Curator, Montclair Art Museum, Montclair, New Jersey. Curator, with Baltimore Art Museum, "Cezanne and American Modernism." Co-author exhibition catalog.
Overshadowed by the avant-garde Europeans, American art and artists made up two-thirds of the work on exhibit at this legendary show. Critical reappraisals challenge the long-held notion that their work was provincial, and establish the inherent artistic quality and vitality of the variety of American art on view in 1913. Image: "Family Group" 1910-1911 William Glackens, National Gallery of Art, Washington DC
Picasso and Duchamp: The Hidden Legacy of the 1913 Armory Show
Thursday, October 31st
Presented by Larry Witham
Author of 14 books, award-winning journalist nominated for Pulitzer Prize.
The separation of art in the 20th century into "retinal art," or visual, and "idea art," known as Conceptual Art, largely originated in the Cubist Room of the New York Armory Show 100 years ago. These two diametrically opposite views and approaches toward modern art and the controversies they engender continue to this day.

November 28, 2014
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (AP) - Costa Rican President Oscar Arias is giving Honduran negotiators a plan to end a standoff between rival claimants to the presidency.
Arias says ousted Honduran leader Manuel Zelaya should return to
power at the head of a reconciliation government and that presidential elections should be moved up a month to October.
Arias says in a statement he is also proposing a general amnesty for all political crimes committed before and after the June 28 coup. He says Zelaya should give up control of the armed forces a month before elections.
Arias made the proposals Saturday as he tries to mediate a solution before greater violence can erupt in the nearby nation. Many of the proposals already have been rejected by one side or the other.

Rovers leave it late to down Dale
Doncaster made it three successive away wins as two late goals gave them a 3-1 win against 10-man Rochdale.
Rochdale raced into an eighth minute lead when Matt Done, who was dismissed early in the second half, ghosted in to meet Rhys Bennett's cross and send a downward header past goalkeeper Sam Johnstone.
But after that Doncaster were the better team. Kyle Bennett saw a stinging drive parried by Dale stopper Conrad Logan, before Nathan Tyson screwed the rebound wide. Tyson later fired wide and James...

Rip Torn Arrested After Breaking Into Connecticut Bank While Hammered and Packing Heatby Free Britney at . Comments
Actor Rip Torn was arrested on Friday night for allegedly breaking into a Connecticut bank intoxicated ... and armed with a loaded revolver, obviously.
Torn allegedly forced his way inside the Litchfield Bancorp building, setting off an alarm, state police from the Troop B barracks in North Canaan said.
When the police responded to the alarm around 9:40 p.m. they found Torn "with a loaded revolver and was highly intoxicated," according to officials.
The actor, 78, was taken into custody without incident, and is being held there on a $100,000 cash bond and is scheduled to appear in court Monday.
This Rip Torn mug shot is actually from his previous drunk driving arrest in N.Y. State. Still, it's an all-time classic. Look at this guy! Dude, take it easy. Yeesh.
Authorities say Rip will be charged with carrying a pistol without a permit, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, first-degree burglary, first-degree criminal trespass and third-degree criminal mischief. Who does this guy think he is, DMX?
He had two previous drunken driven charges against him in New York.
He was acquitted in a 2004 case and, in a second drunk driving case (see above), he pleaded guilty in 2007 to a lesser charge of being ability impaired.
Torn, a resident of Salisbury, Conn., is an award-winning actor in film and theater with more than 50 years of work under his belt. Recently, he has appeared in Dodgeball, August, Happy Tears, The Golden Boys and even TV's 30 Rock.
What is a guy of his stature and age (regardles of intoxication) think he is doing with stunt like this? He is one of my all-time favorites, but this was stupid, stupid, stupid.
I am looking at this picture here and it looks like the man is in pain mentally. He looks like he is hurting and drinking seems to be his only way out. He is a great actor and i hope he get help soon.

Book Description:
The world is visibly moving from bad to worse, if we can trust our senses. But can we trust senses that lie to us about such ordinary everyday occurrences as sunrise and sunset? Talbot Mundy says no and encourages us to go forward to the beginning the sunrise of life, and awaken not our senses, but our consciousness. He challenges us to discover, and prove to ourselves, that joy is stronger than sorrow, love is stronger than hatred, hope is stronger than despair, energy is stronger than sloth, and good is stronger than evil. I Say Sunrise is a joyous book, all the more remarkable because the joy that fills its pages was cultivated, the author reports, in the face of great struggle, shame, and grief. On the surface, I Say Sunrise is a statement of Talbot Mundy s philosophy of life, a metaphysical classic. But beneath the surface, it is more than this alone. It teaches us how to fill life with joy, so that we can triumph over struggle, shame, and grief. It is also a direct assault on the limitations of mass consciousness, describing how the popular beliefs of society color individual thinking, and what we can do to reclaim proprietorship over our own convictions and attitudes. Along the way, there are chapters on death, reincarnation, the use of money, love, and prayer. This is a powerful book; it awakens us from sleep. As Mundy writes: What is beyond the darkness? Some say chaos and darker night. I Say Sunrise.

OSHA has hired at least 400 new inspectors for enforcement of this provision. Failure to comply could carry a hefty fine. OSHA has been more aggressive in issuing repeat citations with fines up to $70,000 per violation. Each improperly labeled cylinder equals one violation, so the fines can add up quickly.
As part of GHS, the format for Safety Data Sheets (SDS) is also changing. A specific format must now be followed. This format mandates you add specific information. If the SDS is not filled out correctly, fines could add up very quickly, on top of being fined for improperly labeled products. While there will be some initial cost to making these changes, they are minimal compared to the fines that could incur because of non-compliance.
Label Solutions can help with all compliance aspects of GHS. We have an on-site, professionally trained Regulatory Specialist to assist in proper pictogram and language on your labels and SDS. Our trained specialist has a comprehensive understanding of the new regulations and is here to assist you with your questions or concerns.

Try staying on the edge of the Las Vegas Strip. The big luxury hotels in downtown Las Vegas are usually the most expensive. Most hotels will run shuttles downtown, so you don't need to worry about missing out on any of the fun. The Las Vegas Leisure Guide has an extensive listing of hotels all over Las Vegas, along with room prices.
How to Book a Cheap Suite in Las Vegas, Nevada
Travelers come from all over the world to visit the gambling and entertainment mecca of Las Vegas. The recent opening of several family friendly attractions has meant an influx of families, too. Because the Nevada city is such a tourist hub, a hotel suite could easily cost $600 a night. Fortunately, if you know where to look, you should be able to find one for much less.
Book your vacation as a package. Booking a flight and room separately is often more expensive than booking them together. Package deals to Las Vegas usually include a flight, a room and some meals.
Book a regular room and then upgrade to a suite later. This option is a bit of a gamble, but if a hotel has extra rooms available, you may end up getting a good deal if you upgrade after your arrival.
Visit Las Vegas during the off-season. Vegas is always popular, but in the weeks after major holidays, prices tend to be down. Generally the hottest period is July and August, and the colder winter months of January and February are slightly less popular. Avoid major holidays if you want to get a good price on a suite.
Call the hotel directly. Travel websites don't always have the best deals. Ask the hotel clerk when cheap suites might be available. You just might be able to get a deal that's not even listed on the hotel website.
Check often. Websites change regularly, and room prices can vary wildly. Room sales often mean heavy discounts, and, because hotels don't want customers to hold out, good rates can spring up without warning.

Two boys have died in a duplex fire in the Milwaukee suburb of West Allis.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported three brothers and a friend were alone in the upper level of the duplex when it caught fire early Sunday. Two of the brothers survived, while one brother and a friend did not.

Police said the fire was reported shortly after 3:30 a.m.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation. Authorities have not released the names of the victims.

Poets of Faith
Conversation with
Chris Anderson
Releasing this September, Rattle #45 features 41 Poets of Faith. As Kenny Williams writes in his contributor's note, "To call yourself a 'poet of faith' is a dangerous move." As Chris Anderson says, confessing that faith includes doubt is a cliché: "The hard thing both personally and creatively is to profess what we believe, and that we do believe." But these poets do the hard thing in poem after poem, exploring the world openly and honestly through the lenses of their various faith traditions.
In the conversations section, Alan Fox discusses poetry and faith in an inspiring interview with poet and Catholic deacon Chris Anderson.
