Establishing his namesake label in 1994, Californian Rick Owens has gathered an extraordinary cult following with his directional Gothic aesthetic, pushing the boundaries of traditional fashion with his avant-garde creations. His glamorous grunge collections are centered on luxury leather pieces, interesting tailoring, severe shapes and a moody monochrome palette. Owens is renowned for directional dressing with an urban edge; mastering darkened elegance allows his collections a timeless sense of luxury.
Rick Owen's 'Cyclops' collection for SS16 fixates on the M-65 field jacket; originally issued in the Vietnam war by US military symbolising military dignity which later came to represent an anti-war statement. Fetishising his obsession with military subjects, Owens deconstructs the jacket and recreates it encouraging its ambiguous nature. Cut from high-tech fabrics and leathers, jackets receive harsh treatments to produce crumpled surfaces and an aged aesthetic. With enhanced volumes and sculpted silhouettes, the collection's complex forms are paired with signature cashmere, dropped crotch shorts and loose fit tank tops whilst burnt oranges, reds and high-shine foiled panels add dimension to longer proportion pieces.

DOUGIE Freedman's return to his old club Crystal Palace on Saturday did not earn his Wanderers side the win he would have dreamed of, with their second Championship draw in as many matches leaving the Whites in 16th spot.
But when the astute Scot considers the bigger picture, he would have taken one big positive from the Selhurst Park stalemate, and that is a clean sheet away from home – Wanderers' first in the league since the opening day of last season when they beat QPR 4-0.
They have kept two cup shutouts since then – a 2-0 FA Cup triumph at Millwall last February and a victory by the same scoreline over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light in their FA Cup third round replay last week.
That was Bolton's first clean sheet since Freedman took charge, so to follow that up with a second successive shutout at Palace – something Wanderers have not acheived in almost two years – has to be seen as a big step in the right direction.
Narrow 1-0 wins at Wigan and Fulham in February 2011 came off the back of a 2-0 home triumph over Everton to make it three clean sheets in a row.
Coincidentally, Freedman's 2013 side take on the Toffees in the FA cup next, on Saturday, to try to make it another shutout treble two years on.
Whether that happens or not, Freedman will hope the recent stubbornness at the back can provide a base to build on as he approaches three months at the helm.
It is an old adage that success is built on miserly back lines and Freedman will certainly subscribe to that, despite being more akin to profiting at the other end as a striker in his own playing days.
One look at the Championship table proves that clean sheets can be pivotal.
League leaders Cardiff have kept 11 shutouts so far this campaign and second-placed Leicester have the most with 14.
Hull and Freedman's former club Palace have recorded nine clean sheets each – the Scot securing the first two of those, including a win at the Reebok.
Wanderers, in contrast, have just four league shutouts to their name, three of which have come since Freedman took up the reins in October.
The league table does, however, show that even the top teams are succeptable to conceding.
Wanderers have shipped 41 in their 28 matches with the best defence being Leicester, who have let in just 23.
Bottom-side Bristol City, naturally, have the worst record with 55 Clean sheets are the target, though, and Freedman's record at the Reebok in his 17 games in charge is similar to his record at Palace and also Owen Coyle's start to his Whites tenure.
In Coyle's first 17 games, in early 2010, Wanderers kept six clean sheets; Freedman's at Palace was exactly the same.
But in recent seasons, shutouts and Wanderers have not gone hand in hand.
Last season, the Whites kept just six clean sheets – just one more than this season so far – and only three of those were in their doomed Premier League campaign.
They opened it up with that shutout at QPR, just as they had a year earlier on home turf in a goalless draw with Fulham.
They went on to record 10 clean sheets in 2010/11, including those three successively in February 2011.
Of course, the key to getting back to the days of regular clean sheets depends on key personnel and Freedman will hope the eagerly-awaited return of centre-backs David Wheater and Matt Mills will help the cause.
Wheater played in all three of that shutout treble two years ago, coming off the bench in the first win against Everton soon after joining from Middlesbrough.
Sam Ricketts and Adam Bogdan also played in two out of the three matches.
If they can all be reunited, the solidity for Freedman's defensive base could be just around the corner.

The wildly popular Cousins' war series by Philippa Gregory has been made into an original series and will be airing on Starz on August 10, 2013 with episode 1. It will consist of 10 episodes that will premiere through October 9, 2013. You don't need to read the books to enjoy the series, but if you haven't given them a try do. They are wonderfully written!
The White Queen by Philippa Gregory
Cousins' War; bk. 1
In this account of the wars of the Plantagenets, a woman of extraordinary beauty and ambition, Elizabeth Woodville, catches the eye of the newly crowned boy king, marries him in secret and ascends to royalty. While Elizabeth rises to the demands of her exalted position and fights for the success of her family, her two sons become central figures in a mystery that has confounded historians for centuries: the missing princes in the Tower of London whose fate is still unknown.
The Red Queen
Cousins' War; bk. 2
Married to a man twice her age, quickly widowed, and a mother at only fourteen, Margaret Beaufort is determined to turn her lonely life into a triumph. She sets her heart on putting her son on the throne of England regardless of the cost to herself, England, and even her son. Disregarding rival heirs and the overwhelming power of the York dynasty, she names him Henry, like the king; sends him into exile; and pledges him in marriage to her enemy Elizabeth of York's daughter. As the political tides constantly move and shift, Margaret charts her own way through another loveless marriage, treacherous alliances and secret plots, always with her ultimate goal before her.
Lady of the Rivers
Cousins' War; bk. 3
When the death of Joan of Arc shows her the dangers faced by strong women, Jacquetta, a psychic descendant of a river goddess, studies alchemy and becomes the secret wife of Richard Woodville before returning to the court of Henry VI. Jacquetta is the mother of Elizabeth Woodville.
Kingmaker's Daughter
Cousins' War; bk. 4
"Kingmaker" Richard, Earl of Warwick, uses his daughters as political pawns before their strategic marriages place them on opposing sides in a royal war that will cost them everyone they love. At the court of Edward IV and his beautiful queen, Elizabeth Woodville, Anne grows from a delightful child to become ever more fearful and desperate when her father makes war on his former friends. Married at age fourteen, she is soon left widowed and fatherless, her mother in sanctuary and her sister married to the enemy. Anne manages her own escape by marrying Richard, Duke of Gloucester, but her choice will set her on a collision course with the overwhelming power of the royal family and will cost the lives of those she loves most in the world, including her precious only son, Prince Edward. Ultimately, the kingmaker's daughter will achieve her father's greatest ambition.

Runway Trend Report: Orange Is the New Black
"I have a lot of weird interests," Ansel Elgort says while being patently ignored by a team of waiters at a trendy café in New York City's SoHo neighborhood, "but everything I do is artistic." That the son of opera director Grethe Holby and photographer Arthur Elgort—a fashion heavyweight who launched his career shooting Jerry Hall and Patti Hansen in the '70s—has artistic inclinations is not surprising; that his pastimes range from creating house music under the moniker Ansolo, to scouring sample sales for Loro Piana and Y-3 finds, to participating in the underground world of competitive miniature painting (customizing figurines and then playing a tabletop strategy game with them) suggests that 19-year-old Elgort, who portrays consummate high school bully Tommy Ross in next month's Carrie reboot alongside Julianne Moore and Chloë Grace Moretz, isn't your average millennial.
Model Lindsey Ellington wears: Tulle gown, Giambattista Valli Haute Couture, price on request, collection at Capitol Charlotte, NC. Nylon gloves, Gaspar Gloves, $24. Belt, Alexis Mabille. Lace boots, Chanel Haute Couture, price on request.
On Ansel Elgort: Sweatshirt, $885, wool trousers, $1,220, calfskin shoes, $1,485, all, Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci, collection at Barneys New York. Socks, Wolford, $25.
"I think it's important I stay connected to every part of my personality," he says, happily draining the dregs of my lukewarm water and tossing a Link Larkin–esque coil of hair off his forehead. "I play basketball. I rock climb. I paint. I'm a little bit scattered, but it's so I can convincingly play all these characters." Though Carrie marks the 2012 Laguardia High School graduate's film debut, Elgort has been acting professionally since he appeared in a 2003 production of The Nutcracker at New York's prestigious Lincoln Center. "Most actors nowadays are models turned actors. That's why a lot of young actors are terrible," he gripes. "You have to learn how to act. It is not something that you can just do."
On her: Cotton blouse, $1,445, silk lace skirt, $2,125, both, Dolce & Gabbana, at select Dolce & Gabbana boutiques nationwide. Cotton gloves, Sermoneta Gloves, $105. Pumps, Valentino Haute Couture, price on request.
On him: Cotton poplin shirt, $995, wool trousers, $1,220, calfskin shoes, $1,485, all, Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci. Socks, Wolford, $25.

text: CHICAGO ( TheStreet) -- Small business is one of those terms we take for granted -- until we try to dig down to what it really means. In the United States, a small business can be anything from a suburban coffee shop to a rural farm stand to a thriving manufacturing company that exports worldwide, with workforces that vary from one person to hundreds of employees. Can one definition cover such radically different enterprises? The flexible nature of "small business" became even more obvious this year, when the Small Business Administration revised its guidelines for exactly how small a company must be to be eligible for its services and loans. In its latest attempt to categorize small businesses, the SBA expanded the maximum size of businesses in more than two dozen industries, with some definitions stretching the meaning of "small." In farming and agriculture-related businesses, "smallness" is measured by revenue, not employment, acknowledging the seasonal and short-term nature of much farm work. Most farming operations are considered "small" if they make $750,000 a year or less, yet a company that offers farm management services is "small" if it makes less than $7 million. Switch to building-related companies (another field where employees tend to be short-term and/or seasonal), and the numbers are drastically higher. According to the SBA, a "small" remodeling or contracting business is one that earns $14 million or less a year. A residential or commercial construction company, however, can make up to $33 million a year, yet still get the preferential services and loan terms of a "small" business. Most industries that produce durable goods are classified by employment, with the maximum number of workers ranging from 500 to 1,000 to be considered a small business. (Companies that sell wholesale, on the other hand, can have no more than 100 employees.) Whether a business is small depends in part on what it produces: if you make cheese or chocolates, you're small if you have 500 employees or fewer, but if you make shoes or process tobacco, you can have up to 1,000. And companies in the ammunition or aircraft-building business get a special dispensation: They can have up to 1,500 workers.

Both houses of the California Legislature spent several hours last week Monday working on pending bills, and a strong subcurrent was the protection and enhancement of personal and civil rights.
The beneficiaries of those bills included, in no particular order, immigrants, prison inmates, women, abortion clinics, gays and lesbians, beer drinkers, bicyclists, Internet users, pregnant women, drug transporters, public school students, the mentally ill and, interestingly enough, mountain lions.
One lengthy Assembly discourse marked the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington to demand an end to racial segregation and the denial of voting rights to African Americans. Were one to look at the broader array of legislation, the list would be even longer. One recently enacted bill, for instance, creates the legal right of transgender public school students to be treated according to their self-designated status, regardless of their biological gender.
So far, so good. In America, a basic governmental duty is to protect constituents' civil and human rights, and while we may debate the specifics, the bedrock mission remains vital.
However, there is a significant exception to the Legislature's zealous protection of rights, one group of law-abiding Californians whose rights are being assaulted, even though they are specifically mentioned in the nation's Constitution – the millions of Californians who own and use firearms for hunting and target-shooting.
The same Democratic legislators, who passionately argue for the protection of other rights, including those of felons, are pushing at least two dozen bills that would harass law-abiding gun owners.
They argue that imposing more restrictions on guns, gun owners and ammunition would somehow improve public safety, but offer no empirical evidence to back that contention. One wonders whether the Democrats who carry anti-gun bills really believe they'll have some beneficial effect on society, or are just following what has become the knee-jerk party line.
Whatever their motives, the Democrats seem to believe that gun owners can be political targets because they tend to live in suburban and rural areas that don't support their party, and that they can make legal gun ownership so expensive and full of petty hassles that shooters will just give up on their hobbies.
If anything, the opposite will occur. California's already heavy-handed gun regulations, until recently the tightest in the nation, have had the effect of persuading shooters and hunters to buy even more guns and ammo before they become even more expensive and less available. That would be the likely result should a new batch of rules be enacted.
It's all quite nonsensical – and undercuts the reverence for human and civil rights that the Legislature professes to hold.

"Draft Day" is an odd movie — not because it's thought-provoking or unique but because I'm not exactly sure why it was made in the first place. It's clearly a love letter to the NFL, specifically a love letter to the Cleveland Browns. The story revolves around the 2014 NFL draft, and the Browns team is trying to transform itself into a better team.
I'll admit I'm not an NFL fan, but will non-Cleveland Browns fans care whether the team transforms itself? The trouble is, "Draft Day" isn't done well: It's rather bland and tells a predictable, slightly corny story that's ultimately about going with your gut.
Kevin Costner stars as Browns' general manager Sonny Weaver Jr. The NFL draft is drawing near, and he finds himself under a lot of pressure.
One day he gets a call — about 80 percent of the movie involves phone calls — from the GM for the Seattle Seahawks, which has the first pick of the draft at the moment, offering to make a deal: Sonny can have the first pick and the projected No. 1 draft pick Bo Callahan (Josh Pence) in exchange for relinquishing future first-round draft picks.
It's a tough decision, but Sonny goes for it because it could mean improvement for the team. But does Sonny really think Callahan is the best pick? Or should he go with other aspiring NFL players like Vontane Mack (Chadwick Bosman)? And so goes "Draft Day," a movie full of heated exchanges between Sonny and other members of the Browns' staff, such as the owner (played by Frank Langella), and last-minute deals with other teams and second-guessing. Practically all of Costner's performance is giving in to peer pressure and flipping back and forth between decisions.
"Draft Day" does shed light on an aspect of football that we don't normally see in football movies. There's clearly a lot of stress and strategy involved in the NFL draft, but the movie doesn't really give the audience much reason to care about any of it. The screenplay by Rajiv Joseph and Scott Rothman gets bogged down in a lot of dry facts and stats concerning college players.
"Moneyball" gave us a reason to care about how baseball players were selected and traded by depicting a fascinating and entertaining tension between the old-timer scouts who believed in picking players using their gut and the younger fellows who wanted to use computer programs to select players. "Draft Day" doesn't have much tension, as it really just comes down to what Sonny thinks is the best move.
And for all of the last-minute deals that are made and the various attempts at drama, "Draft Day" offers very few surprises. The story progresses exactly how you'd expect it to, and you can see Sonny's final decision coming from a mile away.
Costner gives a perfectly average performance — not all that captivating. In fact, that's a good way to describe the entire movie. The picture seems to be lacking in energy, with everyone involved not giving you much reason to care about what's happening.
As directed by veteran comedy director Ivan Reitman ("Ghostbusters"), the film contains a few chuckle-worthy moments, but overall, the attempts at humor feel restrained, probably due to the film's PG-13 rating.
Even when actors like Ellen Burstyn (as Sonny's feisty mother) and Dennis Leary (as the Browns' jerk of a coach who's at odds with Sonny for practically the entire film) show up, they seem like they're holding back. Only once near the end does the movie and Costner's performance breathe any kind of real life.
Ultimately, non-football fans won't like it, and hardcore football fans won't want to see a watered-down dramatization of the NFL draft, especially if they're not Cleveland fans or even Seahawk fans.

Emmitt Smith spotted in S.A.
Updated 2:22 pm, Friday, March 22, 2013
Dallas Cowboys legend Emmitt Smith was spotted in San Antonio on Friday at Tommy Moore's Cafe on the East Side.
The NFL's all-time leading rusher was dining with two Bexar County officials — County Judge Nelson Wolff and Precinct 4 Commissioner Tommy Adkisson, among others.
Smith, also known for his 2006 win on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars," was in town on business — specifically to talk about his construction business, Wolff said.
"He wanted to meet some people in town," the judge said.
Smith is president and CEO of Dallas-based Emmitt Smith Enterprises.
News Channel
The company's website notes it has "two core businesses, EJ Smith Construction and E Smith Legacy, a real estate company." The former specializes in highway development and commercial construction, the website says.
The site adds that the company's mission is "Building Bridges to Open Doors" and that the firm is "already recognized as one of the leading African American-owned bridge builders in Texas."
Smith won three Super Bowls with the Cowboys, and was MVP of Super Bowl XXVIII. He shook hands with diners who approached him as he sat in the back of the restaurant Friday afternoon, some introduced by Moore.

During the 2013 commencement ceremony, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College presented Virginia (Ginger) Smith, a 1989 graduate, with the Distinguished Alumnae Award. The Award is the highest honor the College bestows upon a graduate in recognition of her noteworthy achievements and valuable professional and personal contributions.
Smith earned a bachelor's degree in elementary education at Indiana State University. She volunteered and served as a substitute teacher in the Vigo County School Corporation.

She graduated with her second bachelor's degree in business administration in 1989.
She credits her success to her family and her Catholic roots. This foundation shaped her business intellect and sense of responsibility to her community into a strong, confident woman.
As a vital part of the Terre Haute community, she has served on the boards of many community organizations including the Wabash Valley Community Foundation, the Terre Haute Symphony Orchestra and the Swope Art Museum. She helped establish the Woods Day Care, and served on its board of directors and as president. She also volunteers at the St. Patrick Parish soup kitchen.
An avid supporter of the College, she has given of her time and resources in many ways. Smith served on the board of trustees from 1993-1997 and again from 2001-2010. She was a member of various committees and held leadership positions including board secretary and board vice chair. Her generous contributions have funded scholarships and strengthened the educational and extracurricular opportunities at The Woods.
She is the mother of two sons, Jeffery and Henry, and a daughter, Lesley Bell. She also has ten grandchildren.
Smith has demonstrated excellence in her career and given back to her community, embodying the principles we hold dear. She is a significant part of the College and her leadership means so much to us all. She has made a difference in the lives of our students and we appreciate her loyalty to and love for The Woods.

One New York City Restaurant Eliminates Tipping In Favor of Paying Servers a Salary with Benefits
Tipping...one of the most stressful aspects of going out to dinner. Some people don't tip at all, but most do and want to leave a fair tip, which can be challenging depending on the diner's experience at the restaurant. Well, one sushi restaurant in New York City has eliminated that stress by eliminating tipping altogether.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I ordered these Menu cards for a Bridal Shower I am hosting and I needed to make quite a few adjustments to the overall layout design as I wanted to customize it to include a "To Sip" section of bottomless Mimosas, a 5 choice Entree option in a "To Eat" section and a final Dessert "To Taste" section. I filled out the Menu the best I could online and then told the designers what adjustments I was looking to make. The end result came out perfect and it will be just that special personalized added extra touch to everyone's place settings at the shower!"
"The bride to be selected a classic, long, white menu to place in the napkins. Navy printing. Wonderful black and white engagement photo on the back. The quality is superb. The text and images are exquisite. As the mother of the groom, I appreciated the customer service. The text would not fit online, but I made a note about what I needed the menu to say and the designers had a proof ready in a day. I used live chat when I had questions. Fast, courteous service, helpful editing. Very accessible. I ordered 10 to test the product and then 220 when the bride to be LOVED them. Highly recommend."
"We used WPD for our wedding invitations and received lots of compliments. So it was an easy decision to use them for all our other paper needs. The menu looked very elegant in the Pearl Shimmer addition and the font went perfect with our romantic theme. Unfortunately, I made an error on the back of the menu and WPD graciously and quickly offered to reprint the correct version at no additional cost. They even rushed the order. I love working with WPD!"

Which is best practice or format? Does the script have to be all on one line or can it be on many separate lines like this?
document.write("Today's date is "
return+ (RightNow.getMonth()+1)+
return"-" + RightNow.getDate() + "-"
return+ RightNow.getFullYear() + ".
returnYou entered this Web Page at exactly: "
return+ RightNow.getHours() +
return":" + RightNow.getMinutes() + " and "
return+ RightNow.getSeconds() +
return" seconds")
i would say multiple lines are better as its more readable instead of all in single lines.
It can be on separate lines, but it looks like you're doing something wrong with those return parts.
Thanks, on another issue, concerning the document.write object and method, when using it, if you wish to use it to write "multiple" lines of text at different times in one script, do you use it only once or do have to use it each time you need to write the text?
It's normally advised to stay away from document.write as there are almost always safer techniques to use.
Having said that though, it's more efficient to add the content you want to output to a variable, and to then output that at the end of things.
var html = '';
html += '
Some text

html += '

but that is the only source which I am understanding so I have to deal with things a little differently when it comes to modern day JS just so you understand what I am dealing with, I haven't gotten to var yet, I am following the course as structured. So, would it be possible for you to break down any further what what you have written please?
If so, my questions, using your example would be:
1] To begin using the write method, should I use this var html = ''; every time?
2] What are the 3 dots for between each line?
3] Should I always write this html += '
Some text
'; when referring to text?
4] If you are saying I should stay away from the document.write then why use this document.write(html); at the end?
late here now, will check back in the morning for any answers, thanks!
Sure thing. I just had a look at your source, and it appears that the "return" parts from what you quoted, are actually the image that was used on the web page to indicate a new line.
I won't get in to the pros/cons of document.write just yet. Instead, here's something about what you were asking, the formatting of a statement.
The code from your sample page should instead be:
write("Today's date is " +
"-" + RightNow.getDate() + "-"
+ RightNow.getFullYear() + ".
You entered this Web Page at exactly: "
+ RightNow.getHours() +
":" + RightNow.getMinutes() + " and "
+ RightNow.getSeconds() +
" seconds");
That could also be all on one line:
document.write("Today's date is " + (RightNow.getMonth()+1)+ "-" + RightNow.getDate() + "-" + RightNow.getFullYear() + ". You entered this Web Page at exactly: " + RightNow.getHours() + ":" + RightNow.getMinutes() + " and " + RightNow.getSeconds() + " seconds");
Or it could be split up like this:
"Today's date is " +
(RightNow.getMonth() + 1) + "-" +
RightNow.getDate() + "-" +
RightNow.getFullYear() +
". You entered this Web Page at exactly: " +
RightNow.getHours() + ":" +
RightNow.getMinutes() + " and " +
RightNow.getSeconds() + " seconds"
Notice how it's easier to understand that last example? The main purpose of formatting is to reduce confusion when you and other people read your code. One of the best ways to reduce confusion, is to follow a style guide or code conventions for your code. These help to enforce good practices, so that confusion is reduced to a minimum.
A better online learning resource that you may want to consider has been receiving high praise lately. You may want to check out Eloquent JavaScript instead.
Sorry, I don't understand, any other wya you can explain the purpose of "return"?
Also, I looked at your link but that seems way too technical for me so I will stick with the one I am using for now but thanks anyway.
Sure. Let's go back to the code that you posted, which started all of this.
Whereever you see the word "return" in there, they should not be there. Those are the images on the web page that look like this:
Those don't belong in your code, so when you copy the code from their web page, you'll need to watch out for those images and get rid of the extra text that they naughtily add to the code.
Note though that there is also a keyword called return, that's used to return a value from a function. See Javascript Basics Part 3 for an example of that, in the validateForm function.
So in all, watch out for on the web page, and be sure to remove what they add.
Very well explained, thanks! On to Primer 4
On Primer 11 now:

A SERIAL thief has been granted one final chance to clean up her act after staying off drugs for almost a year and beginning volunteer work.
Victoria Evans, aged 33, pleaded guilty to a rash of thefts across Worcestershire at the end of 2012 – but her sentencing was delayed to give her a chance to rehabilitate herself.
At Worcester Crown Court she was given a four-month prison sentence suspended for 12 months after Judge Michael Cullum congratulated her on her progress since.
"You have attended and lived at a rehabilitation premises – not due to a court order but under your own steam," he said.
"That is important not only for you but for the public at large, because I have no doubt if you remain drug-free you will stay out of trouble.
"Free of negative influences and free of Class A drugs, you clearly – as has been shown by the voluntary work you have been doing – are capable of leading an industrious life."
The court was told she had 41 previous convictions, 33 of which were shoplifting offences.
Judge Cullum said while this would normally make a custodial sentence likely, he was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt based on her progress over the past few months.
She will also be subject to a supervision order.
Evans, of Hipkiss Gardens, Droitwich, was first arrested on December 11, 2012, after being caught carrying two televisions out of the Tesco store in Castle Road, Kidderminster, with a male accomplice who stole a larger TV.
Just six days later, and while on bail for that offence, she broke into three unlocked cars in Tagwell Road, Penrice Road and Priory Gardens, Droitwich, stealing sat navs, a set of speakers and a bag.
She was caught the following day when a resident in Tagwell Road called police after spotting two women trying car doors.
She was arrested and in her bag, officers found sat navs – three of which were the ones which had been stolen the previous night – as well as stolen cheque books and bank cards.
They also found one of the cheques made out to Evans to the sum of £200, and a piece of paper with all the relevant details from the cards written down.
It was later discovered that they had been taken in a burglary from a house in Oakland Avenue on December 16, along with a laptop, a tablet, and other electrical items.
Evans pleaded guilty to one charge of shoplifting, three of theft from a motor vehicle, and one of handling stolen goods.
Defending, Richard Hull said drug addiction was at the root of her offending.
"If she makes good on the progress she has made so far, and remains drug-free, it appears abundantly clear that she will not reoffend," he said.
"She asserts that she has no intention of looking back towards that old lifestyle."

Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. Last Wednesday was just one of those days for NASCAR team owner Richard Childress.
After announcing that Gil Martin would replace Shane Wilson as Kevin Harvick's crew chief on the No. 29 team, Childress probably felt that his tough decisions were through for the week. After all, Martin had led Harvick to eight race wins in his previous tenure atop the pit box for the Harvick team.
Little did he know that when he woke up Wednesday morning that his day was going to go so badly. It started with an announcement by NASCAR that his No. 27 team driven by Paul Menard did not pass post-race inspection at Michigan.
"The No. 27 team was found in violation of Sections 12-1 and 12-4K of the NASCAR rule book," said Kerry Tharp from NASCAR. "Actions detrimental to stock car racing; race equipment that has been previously certified or previously approved by NASCAR for use in an event has been altered, modified, repaired or changed in any manner. Intentionally modifying frame rails for the purpose of deceiving NASCAR inspection gauges."
The result for Childress was a $100,000 fine for crew chief Slugger Labbe and suspensions for Labbe, car chief, Craig Smokstad and crew member Grant Hutchens until Oct. 3. Childress and driver Paul Menard were also penalized 25 driver and owner points respectively.
Childress's response to the charges were simple, "We're going to appeal. That's all I am going to say right now."
As if that weren't enough, Childress' misfortune continued into the evening during the Camping World Truck Series event at Bristol. That's where his nephew, Ty Dillon, ran out of gas on the final restart in his Childress Racing entry while running in the top 5 and finished the event in 21st position.
With the on track action taking a break on Thursday, I'm sure that Childress was thankful for the break and the opportunity to sort things out. Let's hope that his luck changes for the better when his Nationwide and Sprint Cup teams take to the track again on Friday.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – A strong line of thunderstorms moved through the Tampa Bay area on Saturday afternoon, with the first line of heavy rain hitting the Saint Leo University Campus at exactly 1 p.m. The amount of rain, coupled with the remainder of the day's forecast forced the cancellation of the doubleheader against Palm Beach Atlantic.
The schools will look for possible dates to reschedule, but no make-up date has been announced.
Saint Leo will now have almost a week off before traveling to Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. where they will return to Sunshine State Conference action when they face Nova Southeastern in a three game series. The first game will get underway at 6 p.m. on Thursday night.

Passover began Monday at sunset with the first of two Passover Seders — the word means order but it's a service performed at the dinner table because it isn't Jewish if it doesn't include food.
Beth El Binah, Dallas' LGBT Jewish synagogue, holds its congregational Seder tonight. It's my favorite holiday, but you can't do something Jewish without complaining so here goes.
The holiday, the most important festival on the Jewish calendar after the High Holidays (Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur), celebrates the Exodus from Egypt. Lots of great gay themes in Passover — the end of slavery and oppression are what the festival celebrates.
But here's where me and Passover have a little bit of a problem.

We're going to continue with our "Top 10 countdown" (in no particular order) with what can go wrong with your vehicle, component wise, and when. Like we mentioned last time, we realize that were being prognosticators, and numerous other factors can come into play. This list is meant to be a guide.
Fuel Pump; Depending on year, make & model, this part of a vehicle can be a little tricky. The original fuel pumps on domestically-built vehicles (GM, Ford & Chrysler) tend to fail at any point from about 85,000 miles on, while some fuel pumps in Asian makes have been known to last quite a bit longer. We've also seen a complete reverse on this scenario as well! This is not to say that one make is better than another.
The bottom line is, at some point, they do fail – one minute your driving along just fine, and the next you're stranded because the fuel pump died. Fuel pumps often give no warning that they are about to fail. Some may buzz or cause hard starting, hesitation or stalling problems. But more typically, they just quit working. The fault may be something other than the pump (such as a bad electrical connection, faulty power relay or plugged fuel filter or line), so accurate fuel pump diagnosis is essential to avoid replacing a pump unnecessarily if the engine is not getting any fuel. Late model cars use electric fuel pumps that are usually located inside the fuel tank. That makes the pump more difficult and expensive to replace. The price of a new fuel pump & the labor costs that go with it vary greatly, so we're not going to touch on that here.
Gaskets; The engine has a number of gaskets that can fail as time and mileage add up. Like fuel pumps, it can vary depending on year, make & model. We've seen gaskets start to fail as early as 60 to 70,000 miles or last as long as over 100,000 miles! One of the most common gaskets that fail is the intake manifold gasket. The engine will develop a coolant leak in the in this area which is towards the top of the engine. The bummer with this repair is not the cost of the parts, which can range from $45 to $120 dollars – it's the labor time to get the job done properly. The repair involves replacing both the upper & lower intake gasket which means taking apart the top portion of the engine, as well as removing (and putting back) all the other engine accessories that are in the way.
Rubber gaskets and seals tend to harden and shrink as they age. After 10 or 12 years, they usually start to leak no matter what you do. The only way to stop the leaks are to replace the old gaskets or seals.
Most vehicle owners cringe when they here about this last type of gasket – the head gasket. The good news is, many head gaskets will last the life of the engine. But on occasion, after 110,000 miles, some head gaskets start to leak coolant or lose engine compression. This will cause the engine to overheat. Pressure testing the cooling system can verify the problem. Sometimes the leaking coolant will foul a spark plug, and/or dilute the oil in the crankcase. A leaky head gasket can sometimes be fixed by adding a cooling system sealer or similar product to the radiator. But you never know how long the "fix" will last, if it helps at all. The only real fix is to replace the head gasket, which can cost upwards of $1200 or more for parts and labor.

More typical news from the Mets: Carlos Beltran has undergone arthroscopic surgery to relieve arthritis in his right knee. According to a release by the Mets, he is not expected to start baseball activities for 12 weeks.
If you do the math, that puts him into April before he's even ready to start getting ready for the season. So, don't expect the Mets to have him for the first few weeks of the season. This makes the Jason Bay signing all the more important.
The question now is should the Mets go out and get a lower-tier free agent outfielder to replace him until he heals or go with someone on their current roster like Angel Pagan. Experience with arthritis shows it is a recurring problem and the Mets likely will run into this situation with Beltran again in the future.

Related stories: Arrest made in Ontario triple homicide | Triple homicide discovered in Ontario neighborhood
RANCHO CUCAMONGA - Steven Carter, the suspect in this week's triple homicide in Ontario, pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder during an arraignment Wednesday afternoon in West Valley Superior Court.
Carter, 34, also denied special allegations of use of a firearm and gang involvement during a crime.
Carlo Dicesare, San Bernardino County deputy district attorney, said he couldn't elaborate about the gang allegations because the investigation was ongoing.
Carter, whose bail was set at $5.2 million, is scheduled to be back in court on Wednesday for a pre-preliminary hearing. He has yet to be assigned a defense lawyer.
The Upland man is facing 25 years to life for each murder count, plus 25 years to life for the gun allegations, Dicesare said.
Carter was arrested Tuesday morning for his alleged involvement in the shooting the day before in which three people were found dead at a residence in the 1000 block of South Magnolia Avenue in Ontario.
The California felony-murder rule makes a defendant liable for murder if he or an accomplice kills another person, even accidentally, during the commission of certain felonies, according to the state Penal Code.
Jerald Hunter, a friend of Carter's who attended the arraignment on Wednesday, said he was shocked by the charges against his friend and described Carter as "very well loved, a very nice guy.
"There must be some mistake," Hunter said.
Hunter, 33, of Upland said he has known Carter since junior high school.
"I've never known him to be a part of a gang," Hunter said.
Ontario police officers said the deaths stemmed from a botched home invasion robbery.
The incident was likely related to drugs, officials said, as officers took about 20 pounds of marijuana from the house.
However, only murder charges have been filed at this point.
Additional charges can still be added, Dicesare said, but police officers are still gathering evidence and investigating the crime scene.
"This is incredibly preliminary," he said.
"We'll come back and see what's happening."
Police officers responded at 6:15 a.m. Monday to the Ontario home after receiving a report that an unconscious man - later identified as Aaron Philip Andrews, 25, of Upland - lying in a driveway with a gunshot wound.
Police officers found two more bodies inside the house.
One of those, Brandon Perez, 31, who lived in a back house at the address, appeared to be the target of the robbery, police officers said.
Also found dead was another of Carter's apparent accomplices, Albert Lamar Thomas, 25, of Ontario.
The sister of Perez said in an email Wednesday that her brother was a gainfully employed paralegal working for a well-known law firm. He was also a devoted father and a good man.
"No drugs have been linked to him," Elizabeth Park Suarez said. "He worked so much. He was never home."
Suarez said the lead detective on the case called her mother and told her that the reports of drugs being taken from the home were incorrect.
But police officers are standing by their statement that more than 20 pounds of marijuana as well as cultivating equipment were taken from the house following the homicide.
"This case is getting so much attention that we get briefed by detectives several times a day," police Sgt. David McBride said. "The circumstances released are facts, not conjecture."
Staff reporter Doug Saunders contributed to this report.

Since putting up the post about the hotel discount for RootsTech Genealogy Conference 2013 I have been asked "What is RootsTech?"
RootsTech – What?
RootsTech is a relatively new genealogy conference, but is unique as it brings together the developers and users of genealogical technology together in one place. Computer technology and family history are made for each other and this conference gives genealogists a glimpse into what the techies have in store for them. It also allows the technology developers and the big data providers to meet the people who they are targeting. Both parties can ask questions of each other and exchange ideas on what family historians want and what technology can deliver
The conference runs over 3 days and there are lectures, workshops, Exhibition Hall, demonstrations and speaker lunches. The programme for 2013 isn't yet published as the call for presentations only closed on 30 June, but it is bound to be good.
RootsTech – When?
The dates for RootsTech 2013 are 21 – 23 March, so 3 full days packed with plenty for all levels of family history expertise.
RootsTech – Where?
RootsTech is held at the Salt Palace Convention Center, Salt Lake City, Utah. The Convention Center is just around the corner from the Family History Library and only a hop and a skip away from the beautiful gardens of Temple Square. The center itself is a modern facility and is ideal for such large events as RootsTech 2013.
RootsTech – Is It For You?
Is RootTech for you will be a question that will be on the minds of many genealogists. To give you a taste of what is on offer the organisers have put online a number of the 2012 presentations. I would suggest you start with the keynote lecture which started off the conference," Inventing the Future, As a Community" by Jay Verkler and then dip into which ever subject appeals. There are also a series of presentations given by FamilySearch at RootsTech 2012. I am sure once you have had a taster you will be booking your flights and hotel room.
As more information becomes available I will be posting it online so watch this space as they say ……

TOWN hall bosses have launched an investigation into the "intimidating" actions of trade union members after they distributed leaflets in Bolton Market during a public sector strike.
An email leaked to The Bolton News has revealed that Bolton Council is carrying out a full investigation into the incident, which saw a group of strikers enter the market and hand out the leaflets urging shoppers to boycott businesses.
It is understood that three union representatives, including two high-ranking Unison members, have been suspended from their posts in the council during the probe.
Thousands of public sector workers and members of Unison, GMB and Unite unions went on strike in Bolton on Thursday, July 10, as part of a national pay dispute.
A group of 60 — who identified themselves as Unison members — sparked controversy when they picketed the market as part of their protests, claiming the complex was unsafe without health and safety officers, fire wardens and cleaners on site.
Leaflets handed to passers-by urged them to "support our fight by withdrawing your business from Bolton Market" and lambasted market traders for refusing to support their fellow workers in their fight.
The stunt was initially dismissed by a Union spokesman as a "light hearted and spontaneous protest".
But in the leaked email, sent by deputy chief executive of Bolton Council Margaret Asquith last week, it was revealed there is now a high-level investigation into the incident.
She wrote: "The council has received a number of complaints concerning the action which the trade unions took at Bolton Market on the recent strike day.
"I am writing to advise you that, in response, a full investigation is being undertaken.
"The unions are engaging with the investigation which will be resolved as quickly as possible."
Unison, along with GMB and Unite, have announced a second strike on Tuesday, October 14 — another market day.
Ms Asquith said the council would do everything possible to ensure there is no further disruption to the market on future strike days.
Traders have welcomed the investigation.
Businessman Andrew Hacking, who runs market stall Cheapasmokes, said: "It was chaos. They were putting leaflets on the stalls and at one point said they were going to take the alarms down from the doors. There had to be extra security put on the doors."
In a blog post written on the Unison Bolton website after the strike, branch secretary Bernadette Gallagher defended the protesters' actions.
She said: "It is in the interests of business in the town to support our struggle.
"Of course industrial action causes disruption, what would be the point of striking if it didn't?"
A spokesman for Unison North West said: "We regret that an investigation is under way concerning alleged events at the market.
"The union is making its own enquiries into the circumstances described to us and will ensure the interests of our members are protected."
A Bolton Council spokesman confirmed the incident was being investigated, adding: "We can't discuss the circumstances of individuals and are unable to discuss this matter further while our enquiries are ongoing."

HOUSTON - North Forest Independent School District officials talked Monday about their plans to meet a performance deadline that will allow them to keep control of the district.
The Texas Education Agency originally said NFISD would be taken over by the Houston Independent School District at the end of this school year. On Friday, the TEA said North Forest could keep control of the district for one more year.
The district will have to spend that year improving dropout rates, test scores and overall academic record.
The TEA described the district's financial situation as grave and has ordered North Forest to draw up a plan to repay millions of dollars in capitol debt and taxes.
Chris Tritico, the attorney for NFISD, said, "There are ways (North Forest ISD) can do this without putting the district into deeper hole, and the money is being spent in the right way."
The district's superintendent, Edna Forte, said she was pleased with the TEA's decision and will immediately begin working on ways to meet the agency's guidelines before the deadline. She said she is committed to the education of the 7,000 students enrolled in the district.
She said the district has launched "Project Transformation" to improve both teacher and student performance.
State Rep. Senfronia Thompson said, "There's merit in keeping this school district open, there are wrinkles that can be straightened out."
In July 2013, the TEA will review the district's progress and at that time will decide if North Forest can stay open or must close.

Is it use for Web Development? I wanna to know it's usage guys. Suggest me through any kinda of information.
Have you done any reading on this? There's plenty of info out there.
Rails is another server-side programming language that can be used to do the sorts of things you might do with PHP, for example. Many sites are powered by Rails, and there is a CMS (or two) that runs on it as well. You need to make sure it's installed on your server before you can use it for a website, though (and unlike PHP, many hosts don't have it ready to use by default).
Is it as like Xamp?:confused:
No, XAMPP is a server environment that allows you to run server-side code on your desktop—mainly Apache, PHP and MySQL, I believe. Ruby is a programming language, like PHP, and Rails is a Ruby framework (a bunch of pre-written code) to get you started.
Thank you.
Ruby is the language (as PHP, Python)Rails / RoR is the framework (as CodeIgniter, Django)
And yes its for web development, but you can use ruby for any scripting..
There are some good open source web applications for Ruby, such as Redmine for project management. Very robust and mature. We are looking for thoughts from anyone who have integrated Redmine with Salesforce, though

Here's a tip: go poke through the applications for ICANN's new top-level domain name program – you know, the one that will allow companies to have their own .whatever denomination, instead of just .com or .org or .fr.

Three teenage girls have been arrested and bailed on suspicion of assault following a video being posted online.
Two 14-year-olds and a 15-year-old were arrested after police made inquiries into the footage of two girls fighting in Blackburn town centre.
The video, which was posted on Facebook, showed one girl pulling the hair of another, kicking her and punching her in the face.
Inspector Ilyas Mohmed said: "We do not tolerate this kind of behaviour and we will take positive action against anyone who commits these kind of vile attacks.
"I would call on the community not to take matters into their own hands and let us deal with the incident."
In a statement on the social networking site yesterday, Blackburn police said: "Blackburn town centre police have been made aware of a video having been posted on Facebook which shows a teenage girl being seriously assaulted by another teenage girl.
"This incident is believed to have taken place this afternoon close to the grounds of Blackburn college.
"We would reassure people that an investigation is underway and would ask anybody that has witnessed this assault to contact police on 101 quoting log 1021."
A police spokeswoman said that inquires were still ongoing and that officers were looking to talk to the other people involved in the video.

Raltegravir is available as pills. Usually, a pill is taken
twice a day.
Raltegravir blocks the HIV integrase
enzyme. This prevents HIV from multiplying. When the
amount of virus in the blood is kept at a minimum, the
immune system has a chance to recover and grow
Raltegravir is used in combination with
other antiretroviral medicines to treat
HIV. It helps prevent the virus from spreading in the
body and helps reduce the amount of virus in your blood (viral load). Raltegravir may be effective for people who have taken other
anti-HIV drugs without success.
The use of three or more
antiretroviral medicines (antiretroviral therapy, or ART) is the usual treatment for HIV infection.
combination of medicines used for ART will depend on your health, other
conditions you might have (such as
hepatitis), and results of testing. Talk to your
doctor about the best treatment plan for you.
Medical experts recommend that people begin treatment for HIV as soon as they know that they are infected.1, 2 Treatment is especially important for pregnant women, people who have other infections (such as tuberculosis or hepatitis), and people who have symptoms of AIDS.
You may also want to start HIV treatment if your sex partner does not have HIV. Treatment of your HIV infection can help prevent the spread of HIV to your sex partner.3
Raltegravir works well with other
antiretroviral medicines to improve CD4+ cell counts and reduce viral
load.4, 5
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:

Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
If you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

Goldman Sachs Achieves Green-Building Milestone
Text Size
Over 50% of our global office space portfolio—more than 5.2 million square feet—has now achieved Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification as a result of our consistent use of green building standards.
LEED is an international green building standard by the U.S. Green Building Council that assesses environmentally-friendly buildings based on energy and water efficiencies and savings each year. Goldman Sachs has become one of the world's largest owners and tenants of LEED-certified commercial real estate in the New Construction and Commercial Interiors rating systems.
The firm pledged in its Environmental Policy Framework in 2005 to use uniform green building standards for all new constructions and major interior renovations. The fifty percent milestone was reached in July 2013 following LEED Gold certification for the refurbishment of the Goldman Sachs Melbourne office.
The Goldman Sachs LEED portfolio now extends to 16 offices, and other recent certifications include offices in London and Dubai. Earlier this year the Sao Paulo office in Brazil received LEED's highest rating of Platinum certification, making it the firm's first LEED Platinum commercial interiors space and the first LEED Platinum commercial interiors project in Latin America.
The firm's LEED and green building certification efforts are led by the Services Division.

ORLANDO, Fla. - The college bowl schedule is set.
No. 4 Florida will meet No. 22 Louisville in the Sugar Bowl.
Despite finishing behind Georgia in the Southeastern Conference East Division, Florida (11-1, 7-1 Southeastern Conference) was a likely candidate for the Sugar Bowl because the winner of Saturday's SEC title game, Alabama, is headed to the BCS championship, while Georgia, which beat Florida and won the SEC East, was left with two losses and a lower BCS ranking than the one-loss Gators.
Louisville (10-2, 5-2 Big East) finished in a tie for Big East championship but earned its invitation to a BCS bowl thanks to having the highest BCS ranking of any team in the league. The Cardinals opened the season 9-0 before falling to Syracuse and Connecticut, but then beat Rutgers to lock up their league's BCS bid.
The Sugar Bowl is Jan. 2
Northern Illinois has busted the BCS, and is heading to the Orange Bowl.
The Mid-American champions (12-1) finished 15th in the final Bowl Championship Series standings. Finishing in the top 16 and ahead of a qualifying conference champion meant the Huskies were automatically BCS-bound, and they'll play Atlantic Coast Conference champion Florida State (11-2) on Jan. 1 in Miami.
Northern Illinois actually finished ahead of two conference titlists, Big East winner Louisville and Big Ten champion Wisconsin.
The Huskies beat Kent State for the MAC title on Friday night.
Dave Doeren will not coach the Huskies in the Orange Bowl. He was hired Saturday as the new coach at North Carolina State.
UCF's loss in the Conference USA championship game has the Knights staying close to home for the holidays against Ball State in the Beef `O' Brady's Bowl.
UCF (9-4) will make the 100-mile trip west from Orlando to St. Petersburg to face the Cardinals, who will carry a six-game winning streak in the Dec. 21 matchup at Tropicana Field.
Ball State (9-3) received its first postseason berth since appearing in the 2008 GMAC Bowl, filling a slot for the Big East, which didn't have enough bowl-eligible teams to fill the league's commitments.
UCF lost the Conference USA championship game 33-27 to Tulsa in overtime. Ball State went 6-2 in the Mid-American Conference.
Miami is under a self-imposed bowl ban for NCAA violations.
USF finished the season 3-9 and didn't qualify for a bowl.

PEOPLE must take a stand against domestic violence, the Bishop of Bolton, has warned.
The Rt Rev Chris Edmondson will join other faith groups, charities, council officials and police officers at a conference tonight to help stop abuse in the home and encourage victims not to "suffer in silence".
The conference, at the Quebec Hall in Deane, will offer victims of domestic violence the chance to meet specialists and find out what support is available to them.
Bishop Edmondson, who is chairman of Bolton's faith leader forum, will host the event and stressed how the issue was a major community concern.
He said: "Domestic abuse is everybody's business, including faith leaders, organisations and community members.
"It's everyone's responsibility to end domestic abuse. Freedom from violence and abuse is a basic human right. Domestic abuse has no place in a caring and respectful relationship.
"Together we can respond effectively to domestic abuse and violence and work towards a borough where Bolton residents don't suffer as victims of such abuse."
Cllr Derek Burrows, Bolton Council's cabinet member for community safety, said it was vital that victims did not suffer in silence.
He added: "I really urge anyone affected to come along to the conference and find out more about what help is on offer."
The conference will be held between 5pm and 8pm at the centre in Quebec Street.
For more information: call 01204 331080.

SOMEONE came up to me the other day and asked me a question. He said, 'Do you know what happened on this day in 1967?'.
I said I can't remember what happened last week, so I definitely don't know what happened on this day in 1967!
He told me that it was the day I got my leg broken against Everton in a tackle by Johnny Morrissey.
It was very a long time ago but it brought the memories flashing back, very bad memories for me.
I can still remember hearing Andy Lochhead shouting, 'The ball was 20 yards away when that tackle went in!'. That memory stays with me as if it was yesterday. I was 23 at the time and I still wonder what I could have done in the game if I hadn't got that injury.
I was still learning and scoring goals for fun, but after the injury I knew that I wasn't the same player.
I'm not complaining, though, I still had a good career.
It is so important now that Danny Ings and Sam Vokes don't get injured in these final months of the season.
If either one of them was to get injured it would be a massive blow for Burnley. They were fantastic in the 3-3 draw at QPR on Saturday.
Danny was outstanding with the way he chased down the defender and then set up the third goal for Sam.
It was a shock to me that nobody came in and tried to sign either of them during the January transfer window.
If they stay fit I think they will keep scoring. They are so consistent, it's not a one-off.
I just can't understand why Eddie Howe didn't pair them up here when he signed them.
They have 37 goals between them now and with 18 games left they can still break the record of 60 myself and Lochhead set in 1966.
It's about time the record is broken, it has been 48 years.
I have always said it will be broken one day and I will be happy if it is, because it will mean Burnley are having success.
Don't tell Andy Lochhead I said that though. If they do break the record he will be the first to smack them on the nose!
I think we should be aiming for automatic promotion after that result at QPR. We're at home to Millwall on Saturday and we need to be taking three points.
But we just need to tighten the defence back up. It is normally so solid and miserly and it was uncharacteristic for us to concede three. It cost us maximum points at Loftus Road.
Finally, it was great to see Jay Rodriguez score another fantastic goal for Southampton at the weekend.
I didn't score many like that and when I did it took me five minutes to come back down from the roof of the stand!
