Because health care is changing at an unprecedented pace, new or varied approaches to patient care are emerging. One such approach is the use of multi-skilled individuals known as patient care technicians (PCT) who are a part of the health care team.
Graduates of the program will be qualified to work under the supervision of licensed professional personnel and alongside other health care providers in a variety of settings. Graduates will hold CNA certification and be qualified to sit for the National Certified Patient Care Technician (NCPCT) exam, the National Certified Phlebotomy Technician (NCCT) exam, and the EKG National exam (NCCT) at the completion of the course and prior to graduation. Employment opportunities are available in hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation centers, long term care and assisted living facilities, hospice, home health as well as other healthcare facilities.
In addition to basic patient care skills, the PCT curriculum includes medical and surgical asepsis, basic anatomy and physiology, cardiac monitoring, electrocardiography, phlebotomy, clerical skills related to patient care and professional and interpersonal concepts. The program consists of classroom/lab instruction as well as supervised/preceptor clinical activities.
Diversity, challenge, autonomy, professional growth and flexible work schedules are just a few of many rewards which a PCT can enjoy. The patient care technician can experience personal satisfaction from providing a valuable service and develop strong rapport with patients and professionals. A Patient Care Technician certificate and certification can be the beginning pathway to other health care professions.
Program Admission: This is a limited enrollment program accepting 25 students to begin in fall term. In order to apply for the clinical phase of the Patient Care Technician program, students must complete the listed program-ready courses with a grade of C or better. Students may enter the college at any time to begin the specified program-ready courses. Once these courses have been successfully completed, a student may submit a Program-Ready Application to be considered for acceptance into a clinical semester. For more details about this progress, please complete a Health Science and Nursing Information Session.

Gainful Employment Disclosures
• Completion of the Patient Care program requires three semesters once accepted into the program. Twenty-five students are accepted each year to begin clinical courses in the fall semester.
• Clinical courses are offered in the day only at the Newberry Campus.
• In the first semester of Patient Care, the student is prepared with coursework as well as clinical experience for CNA certification. The student MUST be CNA certified in order to attend the final (summer) semester to be eligible to sit for certification as a Patient Care Technician and graduate. Students who have current CNA certification may present this to the program coordinator. Exemption credit will be awarded for AHS 163.
• Patient Care Techs will be prepared to assist with transport, nutrition, physical therapy procedures, and various central supply procurements. They will have ward secretary skills as well as being able to perform EKGs and monitor various type screens.
• Most recent grads are working as ward secretaries but could also do phlebotomy in doctors' offices, hospital labs or lab corps. Approximate salary for recent grads is $10/hr to start.
• Requirements for Clinical Entry: To be eligible to apply for clinical entry, student must have successful completion of Medical Terminology (AHS 102), English Composition I (ENG 101), and Contemporary (MAT 155) with a 2.0 GPA or better. Basic Anatomy and Physiology (BIO 112) should be completed before clinical entry.
• College placement test scores may indicate a student's need for developmental or prerequisite courses prior to higher level college courses. These courses should be completed before progression into required Program-Ready courses.
• A minimum 2.0 GPA is required for progression once in the clinical stage of the program. Students in the clinical program will only have one opportunity to repeat a failed or withdrawn semester. Two failed or withdrawn semesters will make the student ineligible to continue in the clinical program.

Is there a way to have Back Row run at a higher resolution than 1280x800 on my ACD display?
Right now, whenever I start Back Row running at my native res of 1680x1050 it resets the display to 1280x800 and the app itself runs at 1280x800 when in Fullscreen mode. OR when running at native 1680x1050 and Back Row set to Window mode, it resets the display to 1280x800 but the app itself runs at 1680x1050, it simply overscans to the right and bottom. I have to quit and restart the app so that it runs at 1280x800 and fits on the screen.
This makes sense since when in Window mode, it runs at whatever the screen resolution is before it is started. Which is the behavior everyone wants from Window mode, since by setting the resolution small they can access their iTunes or whatever behind it for sharing since running the app resets the screen's resolution to 1280x800, while the app stays at 800x600 or whatever.
This obviously shows that the app can run at higher (and lower) resolutions, it is just that something in its initialization code resets the screen's resolution to 1280x800.
Since this isn't a standard TV resolution, and rather is the resolution of the MacBook, I kind of read this as something that is not a restriction from the Apple TV, but rather just something someone with a MacBook defined after hacking into it. (Could be entirely wrong here)
The million dollar question is; can this be taken out so that Back Row can be started and not change the screen's resolution OR at least can the desired resolution be defined somewhere?
This isn't really a problem on my computer display, but I imagine this could be a huge pain for someone hooked up to an HDTV via a DVI to HDMI connection on a 1080p display with 1:1. That might mean your Back Row ends up as a small rectangle in the middle of your big expensive screen.

When A&M bolted, more than a few teams in the Big XII made a very public, and very coordinated, set of statements about not playing A&M any time soon. Don't know if Tech was among them, but a quick search of Aggie blogs shows the two most hated teams (for Aggies) in the Big XII were Texas and Tech. Texas is hated, because duh, its in Aggie DNA to hate them. But most Ags seem to be raring to get at them again on the field. Texas would have to come crawling (most Ags seem to think that would be appropriate), but the Ags would have a go at them, and relish it.
Ags however, seem to dislike intensely Techg fans at a whole different level, and examples of the things they go on and on about start with Red Raiders crashing yell practices (which are attended by dates, kids, etc) and throwing batteries, bottles, etc. The Ags have a list of places they will not take their mascot, a tame sort of mild mannered 40 pound relative of Lassie. Lubbock seems to be number one on that list of places full of people who would harm a collie, so the dog does not go to any sporting events in Tech territory.
That, coupled with Tech being a school that can be a spoiler, the small size of their stadium, the long drive from College Station, A&M's focus on making a run for a BCS or national title qualifying game in the near future, etc, etc, etc, would seem to indicate A&M's silence on Tech's public teasings means they really are not interested.
My vote is for A&M to schedule a team from California or Washington. Somebody with a real spread offense. SEC spread against Pac 12 spread would be fun. About a million points in the first half would be a break from Alabama vs LSU.

Dominique Hatfield won't forget the moment last month that his football coach at Crenshaw High, Robert Garrett, told him a letter had just come in via school fax machine.
It was a scholarship offer from the University of Utah.
"It almost brought me to tears," Hatfield said. "I started jumping and hugged Coach Garrett."
He sent a text to his mother, Meka. She called 15 minutes later.
"She was screaming," Hatfield said.
The same joy was felt by Hatfield's teammate, Mossi Johnson, when UCLA offered him a scholarship last month.
"I always dreamed of this but never thought it would come true," Johnson said.
Hatfield and Johnson are senior cornerbacks who started the season with uncertain college options. Now both will be headed to the Pac-12 if they fulfill their academic requirements.
Each is a key figure in the rise of Crenshaw (10-1), which plays rival Dorsey (7-4) on Friday night in a 6 p.m. City Section Division I quarterfinal playoff game at Crenshaw.
It's an inspiring lesson what can happen when teenagers decide to focus on and off the field.
Hatfield, 5 feet 11, 160 pounds, and Johnson, 6-1, 175 pounds, started their high school careers with less-than-stellar academic credentials. Hatfield went to Narbonne as a freshman; Johnson was at Santa Monica. Neither was thinking about how important grades might be in the future.
Johnson's mother lived across the street from Crenshaw, but he went to Santa Monica because that's where he lived with his father. "Every kid said I was a nice kid," Johnson said. "I didn't apply myself."
His parents decided to send him to Crenshaw. He didn't know anyone. He didn't play football as a sophomore. He started to get his grades in order. He was also a point guard in basketball. He started the grunt work needed to climb from the bottom to the top.
"In ninth grade, I was lazy," he said. "When I got here, everything changed. I started doing better and better."
Said Garrett: "He's matured. He's self-sufficient. He's worked hard to earn a scholarship."
Johnson has six interceptions in his first season playing cornerback. He had two interceptions in an upset victory over Westlake Village Oaks Christian.
"I'll do anything to win and I think I can play any position on the field," Johnson said.
Hatfield was sent to Narbonne in ninth grade on a permit, because he said his mother wanted him out of the neighborhood and focused on academics.
"It was harder and more distractions," he said.
He came back to Crenshaw seeking a "new beginning" after his freshman year.

MOUNTAIN VILLAGE – The Telluride Ski Resort may not be dressed all in white for its 40th birthday, but that doesn't mean it won't be a party.
Skiers and snowboarders celebrate the start of the Telluride Ski Area's 40th season this week, with the 2012-13 ski season officially beginning Thursday, Nov. 22.
Barely 15 inches of snow have blessed the sun- kissed slopes at Telluride thus far this fall, reports the Telluride Ski Resort's snow safety team. But despite recent warm temperatures putting a damper on snowmaking, the Resort will nevertheless be open and ready for business for its official Thanksgiving Day opening. The Resort hosted its annual Donation Day, a fundraiser for the Telluride Ski and Snowboard Club, on Wednesday.
As thermometers in Telluride and Mountain Village tipped the scales at nearly 50 degrees this week, the Telluride Ski and Golf Company's snowmaking department worked in the colder nighttime hours to crank out as much artificial snow as possible in preparation for opening day. Portions of runs off the Village Express (Lift 4) lift, including Village Bypass and Lower Misty Maiden, are slated to open; the Meadows Magic Carpet lift is also expected to be open. The Meadows (Lift 1) should open Friday or Saturday, as conditions allow. Other lifts and terrain, including the Lifts 4, 5, and 6 "Super Loop" (Upper Boomerang to Lift 5, Lift 5 to Lift 6, and See Forever from the top of Lift 6 back to the Lift 4 area) will open as snow, temperature and other weather-related factors allow.
The Resort is also in the midst of readying the hill for the coming World Cup competitions, December 13-15. Although Mother Nature hasn't been helpful in blanketing the slopes for the coming snowboardcross and skicross competitions, recent investments in snowmaking infrastructure on the Telluride Ski Area have made a dry autumn less nerve-wracking for event organizers.
TSG Executive Director of Planning and Sustainablity Jeff Proteau (who is no longer the resort's vice president of Mountain Operations) said that the Ski Area was successful in obtaining grants through the National Ski Areas Association for purchasing five new mobile, high-efficiency snow-guns this year. The new guns, which require less water and energy, yet are able to produce higher yields of manmade snow, have been used in conjunction with the resort's other newer generation tower-mounted high-efficiency snow-guns throughout the early season, in preparation for both the World Cup event as well as regular terrain openings.
"These are the most efficient snowmaking guns in the industry, and they're also very flexible, because they can be moved from place to place," Proteau said of the ski resort's newest machinery designed to combat less-than-optimal winter weather.
The Resort has also moved closer to more significant upgrades to its mountain-wide snowmaking system this year, as the company completed the first phase of a significant snowmaking expansion project with the installation of a new water-intake structure on the San Miguel River in Telluride, near the Oak Street (Lift 8) chairlift.
"It doesn't seem like much, but that will be the main point of diversion to ultimately increase our capacity for snowmaking," Proteau said of the new intake structure along Telluride's river trail.
Proteau reports that TSG's lift maintenance department has also made upgrades to some of the ski area's older chairlifts, specifically the Coonskin (Lift 7) and Oak Street (Lift 8) lifts, which should improve their operations.
Also new this year will be two heated yurts at the top of the Sunshine Express (Lift 10) lift, designed to be warming hut-style shelters. A water line for a future restaurant was also installed in that area, over the summer, and upgrades were made to the restrooms.
Other resort improvements new this year include the construction of more support buildings to service the Bon Vivant restaurant at the top of the Polar Queen Express (Lift 5), as well as a remodeled kitchen at the TSG-owned Tomboy Tavern restaurant in the Mountain Village base area.

Thorne Research, Meriva-SR, Curcumin Phytosome, 120 Veggie Caps
제품 설명
- Dietary Supplement
- Hypoallergenic
Meriva-SR is a unique, patented, time-release curcumin product. People throughout Asia have benefited from the healthful effects of curcumin for centuries. Curcumin is the orange pigment in turmeric (the primary ingredient in curry), and is a potent antioxidant that offers numerous health benefits, including supporting joint health and cardiovascular function, and helping to maintain the body's normal inflammatory response.
Whether taken as a supplement or from food, curcumin is generally poorly absorbed into the bloodstream. In conjunction with Indena S.p.A., the worldwide experts in botanical extract technology, we have uncovered the key to curcumin absorption – phytosome technology. Meriva curcumin phytosome is a unique curcumin extract that is significantly better absorbed than other curcumin extracts.
Phytosomes are plant extracts bound to phosphatidylcholine (PC), an essential component of human cells. Our bodies can make PC, but we can also get it from food or supplements. When taken orally, PC is very well absorbed. The scientists at Indena found a way to attach a curcumin extract to PC for superior absorption, resulting in Meriva. When you take Meriva your body absorbs the PC and the attached curcumin, resulting in more curcumin reaching the cells that can benefit from it.
A 2007 study published in the journal, Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, demonstrated Meriva's superior bioavailability compared to ordinary curcumin. Liver levels of curcumin were also higher with Meriva supplementation. A recent human study (not yet published) demonstrated 29-times greater bioavailability. In both studies, Meriva supplementation resulted in higher plasma concentrations of curcumin from a much smaller dose than with ordinary curcumin.
In a recent eight-month human trial, Meriva was shown to support a healthy inflammatory response. Individuals experienced improvements in clinical and biochemical end-points associated with joint health.
Several studies have illustrated curcumin's hepatoprotective effects, leading researchers to suggest its use in protecting the liver from exogenous insults from environmental toxins. Curcumin also has the capacity to increase both the flow and solubility of bile. Curcumin's hepatoprotective effects are due in part to direct free-radical scavenging; but curcumin also enhances the body's natural antioxidant system, which increases glutathione levels, thereby aiding in hepatic detoxification and inhibiting nitrosamine formation.

I hope Monsanto loses its hold on agriculture.
´Cuz Monsanto is creating food monopolies. Many of their GM seeds do not yield seeds that can be used to grow more crops. Farmers are forced to continually buy new seed. Even when farmers use unmodified seeds, they get cross-pollenated by accident and then Monsanto sends its goons to test your crops & demand payment when they find their genetic markers in your crops. They´re worse than the Mafia. They want to control all the food. There are many other things that go on, but suffice it to say that I am against what they are doing. At first, it helped a lot of third world farmers but then it hurt most of them as they couldn´t compete against giant agribusiness since they´re no longer able to get regular seeds. Prices are outrageously higher for the GM seeds & we´re losing biodiversity. Many of the new crops are now more susceptable to diseases, pests and mutations (incl. malformed flowers & fruit/vegetables). We´re also losing important insects & other critters who can´t use the new plants to survive.
This is an important case . . . which almost certainly guarantees the court will blow it.I would be interested to know if the farmer went over his bin beans that he bought at the elevator with Roundup for weed control. You see, old timer bin beans would be killed if you used Roundup. So if the farmer went over the top of his bin beans with Roundup, he perfectly well knew he was taking advantage of Monsanto´s technology and not paying for it.I would let the case hinge on that. But of course, I am not a judge, so I figure the SOTU will do some stupid, like let Roberts write the major opinion. I´m sure he will mess it up like Obamacare.Seriously, I have no idea how this case should best be decided.
I just hope the horse meat supplies aren´t being tainted by GM food.
I side with the farmer. And not because Monsanto is a big bad bully (although they are in this case, IMHO). I´m very uncomfortable with a near-monopoly on seed production and extending that into future generations of seed is just silly.
I hope Monsanto loses. Im with #2--and he is stating exactly the case of small farmers here in Hudson Valley not to mention worldwide.
Monsanto is staffed with demons from Hades.
I´m with #7. Monsanto and their chemical food production is just creepy.
This is very interesting because the farmer bought the seed he used from a grain elevator, so to me the question becomes how was the grain promoted by the seller? If it was sold as round-up ready grain, why isn´t Monsanto sueing the elevator?Also, when the harvested grain was sold, did it then have to be declared as round-up ready grain? The grain trade seperates genectically non-altered grain from altered grain because your Japanese TOFU doesn´t taste very good made from the genetically altered soybeans. It would be interesting to see who is backing the farmer in this situation with the money to fight the case all the way to the SCOTUS.
A farmer grow grain that is not GM´d. A bee comes along with GM´d polen and contaminates his natural crop. He takes seed from his crop for hi next planting. Some of his seed have GM markers. Don´t blame the farmer blame the bees.
This has nothing to do with patents. It has everything to do with Monsanto´s greed and criminal activity.So, if I buy seeds and those seeds grow a plant that produces seeds, I can´t use them next year to grow crops?So why isn´t the seed now mine, it grew on my property, using my water, my fertilizer, my soil and my CO2. How is it that Monsanto says MY seeds can´t be used and I have to buy more of theirs?This is insanity. Patents only apply to the original item. Monsanto´s claim that they own the results of the seed is the same as saying that Apple owns your data because you put it on their IPhone...BS!
I believe the patent and copyright system in this country has largely been applied to benefit the rich and powerful. If some individual invents something of great value, a very wealth company can produce a product based on that invention and, if fought on it, keep the original inventors in court for years or, hire enough lawyers to beat him outright. And copyrights? That´s a mess that caters to a few very wealthy.

Flight Paths of Airlines Merging
Someday very soon, there may be fewer airlines listed on airport arrival and departure screens.<
Someday very soon, there may be fewer airlines listed on airport arrival and departure screens.
Which names could disappear is the subject of intense industry speculation. But with most of the larger carriers again reporting profits, merger and acquisition talk is gaining momentum.
Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines, both operating in bankruptcy, often are seen as the two most likely targets for a suitor. But United Airlines, Continental Airlines and US Airways' names also have come up as possible partners.
Even last week's threats of terrorist attacks haven't dimmed interest in consolidation, although stock prices have fallen since the alerts were issued on Thursday.
In a note to analysts Monday, Calyon Securities analyst Ray Neidl advised that a Continental-United marriage is among those some speculate would make sense. Neidl cautioned that it may be too earlier in the industry's economic recovery to begin mergers, but added that a deal between United and Continental, healthy airlines with largely different market strengths, "would set off a chain reaction in the industry."
The industry is primed to contract, airline analyst Michael Roach said.
"There are too many legacy carriers. ... Everyone agrees there are too many," Roach said. "As a result, it's possible to imagine almost any kind of combination."
That could include combining either Northwest or Delta with a healthier operator. Or some analysts predict that Northwest and Delta could merge, hoping that the resulting carrier would be stronger financially.
Good arguments can be made for those moves and more, but each also brings unique problems, said Joe Brancatelli, editor and publisher of a newsletter for business travelers.
"They all make sense, but I see problems with all combinations," he said. "There's a lot of stuff that goes on when you try to merge cultures and corporations."
In 1980, in the era before airline deregulation, Pan American World Airways and National Airlines merged. The plan was intended to give Pan Am the domestic-route network it lacked, increasing passenger traffic to its international routes. The deal made sense when looking at route maps, but expensive problems quickly emerged.
"The fleets were completely incompatible. The systems were completely incompatible," said airline analyst Robert Mann. "And they had paid a real premium ... to control National. They had paid too much and done it without taking a real pencil to the cost of integration or the real time frame for integration."
The National Airlines name disappeared soon after it was acquired by Pan Am. Pan Am survived about a decade longer, declaring bankruptcy in 1991. In its effort to stave off financial problems in its final years, it sold many of its valuable assets, including Asian routes, to United Airlines.
In addition to routes, fleets and operations, other challenges come when combining airlines. Most of the larger carriers have unionized work forces. Reconciling sometimes vastly different labor deals can take years.
American Airlines bought TWA in 2001, after that carrier sought bankruptcy protection. The agreement saved the jobs of more than 20,000 TWA workers but at a cost. They lost seniority when they were integrated into the American Airlines unions, resulting in many being among the first to be laid off when the industry began suffering financially a few years later.
United Airlines and US Airways terminated pension plans while in bankruptcy. Now, if either attempted to merge with a carrier that still offers a pension, a battle likely would ensue with employees who would want to keep the sometimes lucrative retirement benefit.
"That would not be a trivial issue," said Aaron Gellman, a professor at Northwestern University's Transportation Center. "It's complicated."
As a result, reaping the benefits from a merger "is going to take a couple years, no matter what scenario is proposed," Gellman said.

text: Senator Grassley Speaks to Home Grown Energy Limiting access to domestic renewable energy called ludicrous. Published on: Mar 9, 2011 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print Senator Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, credits the unrest in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya with the upswing in oil prices, now more than $100 a barrel. Grassley addressed his fellow Senators on the issue earlier this week. "Our country is at risk. Our economy is at risk. Our nation's security is at risk," Grassley said. "The idea that we limit access to our own resources, which in turn leads us to go hat-in-hand to foreign dictators and oil sheiks, is ludicrous. It doesn't have to be that way." The supply of fossil fuels is finite, so Grassley said we must look to alternative and renewable resources so we can improve our energy and national security. This includes supporting energy from wind, biomass, hydroelectric, solar, geothermal and biofuels. "The federal mandate requires that ethanol be used, it does not mandate that it be produced domestically," Grassley said. "The incentive acts as encouragement to use a homegrown product. It increases economic activity at home and works to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Without domestic biofuels, we'd be on bended knee even more than we are today begging others for oil."

You see, we already have a playoff system – it has two teams, as opposed to next year when it will have four.
And Meyer is bothered that his team isn't considered one of the two most deserving teams at the moment. That could change by the time the regular season ends, but for now, Meyer's Buckeyes are out.
It's funny, because Meyer didn't call it a "flawed system" when two of his one-loss teams at Florida made the championship game, winning national titles in 2006 and 2008.
Maybe that's the time frame Meyer is discussing when he said of the BCS: "I think it was great for a while."
The bottom line is the current system includes only two teams. If two human polls with nearly 200 voters and a set of six computer rankings don't consider you among the top two, the system isn't necessarily "flawed."
Certainly, the only way to solve Meyer's issue is to expand the playoff, which major colleges are doing next year.
And if it really is such a crime that a team like Ohio State could get left out, and if everyone really is so in love with an expanded playoff, consider this: Why have the presidents of NCAA schools ignored all that for decades?
Remember, the four-team playoff still won't be administered by the NCAA. Instead, it will be just like it has been since the 1990s – a coalition of bowls, conferences and television have put it together.

Diner Reviews
We went last Friday because we
needed a nice spot in San Francisco before a concert. I was seated in a 2-top, with only one table full over in a corner. They proceeded to put people on either side of us on the adjacent 2-tops. the rest of the dining room remained fairly empty for a least 20 minutes so it was weird. The women to the left were pleasant, but there was a loud woman on the other side so I was a bit unpleasant. We enjoyed the portobello fries, horseradish shrimp. and hanger steak. The broccoli leave salad was a bit of a disappointment, with a not very flavorful dressing. I liked the wine we chose from a good list. "
Dined on 4/18/2014
Interesting, imaginative specials,
very good regular menu. Service was prompt, server was informed, but she disappeared after taking the dessert order and someone else took care of us which was ok because she was just as attentive as our original server, but a little confusing. No big deal. The noise level became a little too 'energetic', but that was largely due to the loud tables dining next to us. (Not fond of listening to people's experiences at a rock concert.) Otherwise the dining room was warm and well appointed. Just filter out the loud mouths. We'll look forward coming back and recommending this restaurant to friends. "

We keep going back to Sauce for
many reasons. Great location to grab a great dinner before a show at the Jazz Center, opera or symphony. Good sensibility on the part of the staff to diners with deadlines and curtain times. If you want cozy and sumptuous, dine in the intimate Supper Club room. Or enjoy bright and comfy table and booth service in the front. Love the tater tots. Salmon was fab and the veggie strudel was perfect. Had a lovely Pinot. Sturdy menu to please all tastes with old favorites retained (the sliders!) and new yummy dishes featured as well. Friendly, accomodating staff from front to back. We will definitely be back."

I had tickets to take my dad to
the symphony for his birthday. We live in the south bay and I needed to find a restaurant that was close to Symphony Hall (Dad has issues walking). I googled "restaurants close to Davies" and this is one that popped up. It looked close and wasn't a chain so I made a blind reservation. What a gem! Cocktails were amazing. Best Manhattan I have ever had! The food was divine. Everything was cooked perfectly. And the service was perfect. For basically throwing a dart at the map, I could not have made a better choice. I cannot wait to return!"
Dined on 4/12/2014
We ate here prior to attending the
ballet, which was very convenient. We were running late, but called and the host was very accommodating. The food and atmosphere were very nice. Our waitress, while competent, did not add anything to the experience; very little-to-no personality that I saw. All in all, it got the job done and we enjoyed our dishes, especially the portobello mushroom bisque and steak!"

Our table was in a great spot, the
place was cozy, the menu was small but everything we ordered (party of four) was great, including the dessert doughnuts at the end."

This was our first time at Sauce.
We loved the experience. The menu is unique and compelling. Hard to chose what you wanted because all menu items sounded so good. The service was terrific. We will be returning. Nice little find near the Davies Symphony Hall."

Sauce at Gough is like pulling on
a favorite wool sweater - it just makes the world seem that much better. Top-notch service with a kitchen that turns out familiar food with an emphasis on quality. Sometimes you just want to have a good meal to send you on your way to the next event."
Dined on 4/11/2014
The front was unassuming. The menu
was "OK" but not really exciting. We sat in the back room, a little dark, but quieter. Then we ordered a light meal. The food was spectacularly good. The Portobello Mushroom Bisque was gluten-free, a rich, dark soup with a fabulous flavor. The octopus salad was made of paper-thin slices of poached octopus on a bed of greens, just wonderful. And the oysters were so fresh we could taste the sea. We had a merlot that was to die for. And berries and cream for dessert: four enormous strawberries served on a mound of hand-whipped fresh cream, sweetened ever so delicately. We will be back."
Dined on 4/11/2014
Loved this restaurant, just a
short walk from drinks at Martunis. It was the perfect find for a group celebration of my friend's wedding. Food was delicious, reasonably priced, service was perfect and they did not rush us through our meal. We had a great evening together to cap off a memorable day."
Dined on 3/27/2014
Went to dinner there with my
boyfriend before a show at Davies Symphony Hall. Great food and beer. The mini meatloaf on a bed of mashed potatoes drizzled with gravy was amazing! Loved our sliders, they were corn beef that day. Cooked perfect and so original. We split the fried chicken, and good thing we did because it was huge! I'm usually a low carb eater but the noodles that came with it were so buttery and good, seriously great splurge. The red tomato sauce that came with the chicken was so chunky and homemade tasting, very refreshing pairing with fried chicken. Also, the chicken itself was cooked so well, breaded perfectly. Con: Men at table close to us made no effort to be polite, so loud, rude, cursing, bros in sales..."
Dined on 4/2/2014
This was my second time at Sauce.
The first time I was with a large family group and ate in the back dining room. This time a friend and I went for an early dinner before a theater date. We sat at a small table in front with a street view - very charming. Our waitress was very attentive, even answering our questions about parking. We started with the brussels sprout salad which I'd had the first time and was dying to have again. I was not disappointed - the tender brussels sprout leaves lightly coated with a slightly sweet dressing was just as amazing as I'd remembered. A cup of the portabello mushroom soup came next - rich, creamy, earthy flavors - stunning. Our entree was also outstanding but I've run out of room. Go!"

Birthday feast for 8. Devoured

Warm and welcoming, we enjoyed
dinner for 10 at Sauce on a Saturday night. The service was excellent and the food was as well. The group enjoyed trying many of the starters- the standout was the award winning portobello fries. The cocktail menu had vintage go-tos with a twist- mexican mule and honey sidecar were amazing! The entrees looked fabulous when they came out and everyone enjoyed them as well. There was a good crowd there and it cleared out in time for curtain at the ballet. For going to an intimate restaurant with a large group on a Saturday night- those conditions generally invite disaster but the Sauce team worked it out with style."
Dined on 3/22/2014
Sauce is very convenient for
before-theater dining and the food is consistently good. Their crab cakes on slaw were excellent recently and I often begin with the iceberg wedge with plenty of blue cheese dressing--a tad too much red onion though--and presented like a large flower blossom. The tater tots with bacon, compliments of the couple at the next table are too good and the smashed ice cream dessert a delicious indulgence. Service is friendly and professional although the server took my spouse's salad plate before I had finished my salad."
Dined on 3/20/2014
Food was good but steak a little
tough. Cinnamon donuts were amazing."
Dined on 3/21/2014
First time at Sauce on Gough in
Hayes Valley and we will definitely be back and soon. Everything was delicious and we all agreed the New England am chowder was by far the best we ever had anywhere. I had the chicken Parmesan and my wife had the pork chop, both fabulous. I heartily recommend Sauce as a wonderful neighborhood dining joy and look forward to dining there again soon."
Dined on 3/21/2014
Is it too much to ask for a
friendly server, a smile, and decent food? Foodies may love the attitude, but I like food. It's not worth the hassle, noise, and limited menu to come here."

GET THE DESERT SAMPLER! Everything
was great. Desert mind-blowing. Service awesome. Sauce never disappoints"
Dined on 3/14/2014
Good for before concert dining-
they were also accommodating even though we were running a bit late-they let first person in party sit at table until we got there. We started with small plates to share- tater tots- so- so a bit leaden (food here in general is very rich, high calorie), mushroom fries- tasty, sliders good. Then we had the fried chicken (very moist), hanger steak (excellent and cooked to right degree of med rare as requested), fish of day (very tender and fresh), All portions were quite sizeable. Service very good, attentive but not hovering. We also shared an order of the bacon- was not as great as reviewers suggested. Bill was reasonable -with nice bottle of wine- under $160 for 3 people with tip."

I ate here Wednesday night because
we had to go to the theater and some of my more favorite restaurants were not available. So using yelp and open table, I discovered Sauce. The food was fabulous. Very inventive. I had the salad with pears and pecans and it was uniquely different with a little bit of a sprinkling of brown sugar on the top that made it wonderful. He just chose the salmon which was perfectly cooked over a salad including pieces of bacon and All around us, people were choosing small plates that they were sharing. And we decided we definitely have to come back and definitely have to try the small plates. There were many choices and they all looked wonderful. I highly recommend this restaurant with it's inventive cuisine."

It was everything that the show on

We only discovered Sauce about a
year ago, and from our first visit, I was asking myself, "How could I have taken so long to discover this gem?" We've probably eaten there half a dozen times since then – usually after a symphony concert or SHN show – and my enthusiasm hasn't waned a bit. Food is fresh, creative, relatively healthy, and generously portioned, at what I think are quite fair prices. I've fallen in love with the Brazin Old Vine Zinfandel, available by the glass at Sauce, and I'd be tempted to stop in just for that. Service is always friendly and attentive. The fact that they are open late and serve dinner until at least midnight – sometimes later – is just icing on the cake (but important icing!) I can say only good things."

I'm from NYC where most meals are
over priced. I have no problem paying top dollar for a great meal. But the food here was really overpriced considering the quality. We started off with oysters, which were great and then the crab cakes which were alright. I ordered the chicken with parpadelle and it was terrible! The tomato sauce tasted like it was from a bad pizza place, the pasta was over cooked and soggy and chicken was definitely not crusted well at all. I would have returned it, but I was starving and my waitress never checked up on us to see how our meal was. I ate would I could and immediately asked for the bil. It was a very attractive menu. Unfortunately not very well executed and too expensive for the quality."
Dined on 3/1/2014
This is a friendly little
restaurant with an adventurous menu. I was dining before the symphony, but the bar scene also seemed pretty lively with lots of special cocktails and a fairly young crowd. And, if you're a Shark's fan…this is your place; the bartender is a big Shark's hockey fan. The menu offers a different take on some items, like the "wellington" as well as polenta or portabello fries, grilled cheese to die for, poutine …The menu seems to change frequently to keep it interesting. Check it out!"
Dined on 2/27/2014
It is surprising how many Chefs
overcook the fish. NOT so at Sauce! We had the most perfectly, succulently prepared salmon we have had in years. It was a simple dish, but fresh ingredients and taste. If this place was closer to the Symphony Hall, you wouldn't be able to get in!! We definitely recommend Sauce."
Dined on 2/28/2014
I brought a large group here for a
team dinner. We stuck with small plates so we could try more things. It's not French Laundry, but every dish we had was a real delight. This is comfort food at its best. Service was fine, and it wasn't particularly loud - in fact, any noise in the restaurant probably came from us. I'd most definitely return."

Ever thought about making it out
here? Don't think about it any longer and just go. Make reservations though."

Sauce had a great menu with both
familiar and unique selections. The restaurant-side was very quiet and consisted of mostly couples (it was Valentine's day) while the bar-side had a few singles. Our waitress was courteous, prompt and efficient. The food we ordered was delicious! We had the mac-and-cheese as an appetizer which was splendid. Our main courses, the pork chops and wellington, were both well-cooked and sizable portions. However, the desserts took the cake, no pun intended. We had the dessert sampler and it was amazing, by far the best part of the meal. Definite recommendation."
Dined on 2/14/2014
Came here on a roll of a dice
finding it on open table since all the recommendations of friends we're all booked for the time we wanted to have dinner. Was definitely glad that we were able to get a table as this place was definitely great. The selection of house cocktails can be a hit or miss depending on your taste buds but they have a full bar and good wine list if none of their house cocktails sound appealing. Food overall was excellent -- had the short rib wellington which was excellent especially with the accompanying vegetables. Had the mini dessert sampler which was a good choice as we got to taste a little bit of everything. Ambiance can be somewhat loud but not loud enough that you can't hear your company. Overall great place!"
Dined on 2/22/2014
2nd time here, once for cocktails
and this time for food. My wife had a pork chop and I had the salmon. Both dishes were excellent, and the salad with the salmon was very impressive! Our server Lindsay was on her "A" game and served us very well. Fast efficient, and what a smile. Of course we had to have a little something after our entree, so it was smores across from me and berry & cream for me. WOW! My only issue with Sauce is the spacing between tables. You actually sit very close to people which makes for not being able to have a personal conversation with a date. The place is small, and needs to expand! The meal and the service were worth the trip and I would go back again to eat there!"

Hello everyone!
To begin with, I want to apolgogize in advance if my question has appeared in the forums before and just slipped my attention (i DID take a look :-)
I need some guidance on reading .X files based on templates (no premade D3DX functions as LoadMeshFromX e.t.c)
At the time i can parse the top level children "nodes", (and i think it can be done recursively for any depth), but i still can't figure out how to read the actual data!
I haven't found any good resources about it and I find the SDK doc a bit confusing on the matter…

"You had a big head as a baby, but at least you grew into it" – And other loving things Latino parents say
At Thanksgiving dinner with my (Anglo) family yesterday, I realized just how Latina-ish I've become.
The conversation turned to the children at the table, and how much they've grown. I said to my oldest son, "You were such a difficult baby. My God, you cried and cried and never shut up."
My oldest son said, "But I'm a good kid now, right?"
"Yes, now you're a great kid," I agreed.
My youngest son puffed out his chest. "I was a good baby, right Mommy?" he bragged.
"Oh yes, you were a very sweet baby. The sweetest!" The youngest son smiled in triumph.
"But, Mommy!" the oldest son said, "I was the cutest, wasn't I? You told me once I looked like a model baby!"
"Yes, when you weren't crying, you were absolutely gorgeous."
My oldest son smiled.
"What about me, Mommy?" the youngest son said, "was I cute?"
"Yeah, you were cute, but you had a big head… at least you grew into it," I said smiling and kissing his cabezón.
This is when I realized my entire family was looking on at this exchange in complete horror. The only person not looking horrified was Mr. López. My little sister mumbled, "Well, this will be the Thanksgiving they'll remember in therapy."
I felt a little embarrassed then, realizing what the conversation looked like through their eyes. I looked like a terrible mother, but these things I said to them are not things I haven't said to them before, and in this way, the boys are not Anglo at all. They don't take it personal, they are not traumatized. They take it in good humor, because this is the way Latino families lovingly joke with each other. It's not uncommon for a family member who hasn't seen you for a couple years to say, "Look at how fat you got!" and then to embrace you with a rib-crushing hug. No hurt feelings! (Admittedly, I can dish it out, but I can't always take it.)
But later on the way home in the car, I began to worry, what if my boys are more Anglicized than I think? What if they're harboring secret hurt feelings over my words? And so I asked them.
"Hey guys, what I said at the dinner table about you as babies, it didn't hurt your feelings did it?"
"No," they both said, bewildered.
"I was just joking around," I said, in case they weren't being honest.
"We know," my oldest son said.
"Yeah," the youngest son said, "it just means you love us."
"Right," I smiled.

I love your stories!
You're so considerate…
I love how your family reacted! I bet they'll remember it for a long time too!
HAHAHA! Yep. I shock my poor sister and mom many times over with my honesty and/or joking nature. My mom now just spends her time saying "What Mommy really means….." or "Mommy is just kidding. Ha-ha-ha (no real laughter, just awkward glances and a pasted smile)." My daughters are gorgeous, so I can joke about how stinky their little feet were, or how they USE to be cute, but now we are going to have to trade them in for better looking kids. And you know what? Its a good thing. I have been told by every teacher Cateyes has had that she has a great sense of humor, and that they like having her in class because she 'gets' the teachers one-liners and sarcasm. This year her math teacher actually said she is a lot smarter than she lets on, because he will tell a joke in class and she will be the first one to have an honest response, be it a groan or a giggle, and that the other kids look to her to see how they should respond, since they have no idea what dry humor is. Too bad she couldn't be tested on that huh?
Hey we do joke about this too but then I realised that as my elder daughter is getting older now, she tends to be a bit more sensitive ;(
Your boys are so cute & lovable Buddy :D
You and I must be sisters!
I do the exact same thing (the honest, potentially embarrassing comments about babyhood). And the boys always take it with a big smile, and "tell me another one".
That? Is awesome. LOL
I can just see the look on your family's face. I wrote a while back about our Latino "terms of endearment" and how to anyone else they would sound horrible. So glad to hear it from your perspective as well.

Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer is formulated to work as a base coat under Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer. It is easy to sand, dries quickly, and seals the wood in just one coat. After sanding, it provides a smooth, even surface that is ready to be top coated with Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer.
|Application Tool:
|high quality natural bristle brush
|interior wood surfaces
|Dry time:
|1 hour
|lacquer thinner
|125 sq. ft. per quart
|Recommended Uses:
|woodwork, cabinets, furniture, interior doors, accessories
Q. What is Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer? How is it used?
Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer is formulated to work as a base coat under Minwax® Brushing Lacquer. It is easy to sand, dries quickly, and seals the wood in just one coat. Once sanded, it provides a smooth, even surface that is ready to be top coated with Minwax® Brushing Lacquer. For consumers who want an ultra-smooth finish, we recommend that they apply a coat of our Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer prior to applying a coat of Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer.
Q. Sanding is not required between coats of Minwax® Clear Brushing Lacquer. What if I want an ultra-smooth finish? Can I sand if I choose to?
Usually, sanding between coats of lacquer is unnecessary. Consumers can choose to sand between coats of lacquer if they want a very smooth finish, but they do not have to.
Q. Can Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer be used over Minwax® stains?
Yes, Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer can be applied over Minwax® Wood Finish™ stains, Minwax® Water Based Stains and Minwax® Gel Stains.
Note: If you choose to stain prior to applying Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer, be careful not to sand the sealer so aggressively that you go through to the stain and damage the color.
Q. What type of applicator works best with Minwax® Brushing Lacquer and Sanding Sealer?
Brushing lacquers work best with either a natural bristle or a synthetic bristle brush. When choosing an applicator, the most important factor is selecting a high quality brush with tapered bristles that will enable you to "flow" the lacquer onto the wood. Avoid over-brushing, which can leave brush marks in the dried film. Do not use a foam brush, since it will dissolve!

WARNING! Removal of old paint by sanding, scraping or other means may generate dust or fumes that contain lead. Exposure to lead dust or fumes may cause brain damage or other adverse health effects, especially in children or pregnant women. Controlling exposure to lead or other hazardous substances requires the use of proper protective equipment such as a properly fitted respirator (NIOSH approved) and proper containment and cleanup. For more information, call the National Lead Information Center at 1-800-424-LEAD (in US) or contact your local health authority.

COVERAGE: Approximately 125 sq. ft. per quart.
Note: For brush application only. Above dry times and coverage rates are based on good ventilation, temperature of 77° F and 50% relative humidity. Lower temperature, higher humidity, lack of ventilation or application of thick coats will extend dry time. Always test tackiness between coats. Do not recoat if surface is still tacky. Always spot test on an inconspicuous area to ensure satisfactory results. Minwax® Lacquer Sanding Sealer is not recommended for use on floors. To protect floors, use Minwax® Super Fast-Drying Polyurethane for Floors or Minwax® Water Based Polyurethane for Floors.
Aerosol Directions
WARNING! If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. Lead is Toxic. Contact the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log onto www.epa.gov/lead.

Perth, Western Australia - 6th to 10th January 2014
As an increasing number of applications and services shift to "the cloud", close attention needs to be focused on the platforms that deliver these services to their users. From a user's perspective, the browser implements the web platform. Therefore, it's important that there is open community-driven discussion about the browser development process.
Browsers are hard - they must support a family of incredibly complex specifications, provide a safe user environment in the presence of scripts, maintain backwards compatibility for old specifications and features, and allow multiple complicated web-apps to run in parallel while remaining performant. With the range of services now exposed by the web, browsers have been likened to operating systems, and some projects, such as Google's ChromeOS and Mozilla's Boot to Gecko, are attempting to make this analogy a reality.
The Browser Miniconf is an opportunity to provide a focal point for discussing issues related to the development of open-source browsers. Several open-source browsers exist, and the three most popular rendering engines (Gecko, WebKit and Blink) all have vibrant and active communities of hackers in the Australasian region. This miniconf will allow those communities to meet and exchange ideas. Further, the miniconf will provide an access point for open source developers to discover more about the various browser efforts, and an introductory point for those developers interested in improving web browsers.
Like last year, the Browser Miniconf will accept talk proposals in the following areas:
* browser internals, from birds eye right down to deep detail. Example titles: "1000 foot overview of the Firefox code-base", "implementing accelerated compositing of layers in Blink"
* integration of browsers with platform libraries and distributions. Example titles: "exposing Gecko to Gtk+ developers", "why distros and browsers can't all just get along"
* The browser development process. Example titles: "open source browsers, standardisation, and the web", "Hacking Chrome - how hard can it be?", "Why is the browser like a kernel?"
A note about the organizers: Cameron McCormack is a Software Engineer at Mozilla working on Gecko's SVG implementation and participating in a number of Web standards efforts. Shane Stephens is a Software Engineer working out of Google's Sydney office, concentrating on the new Web Animations specification as well as its implementation in Blink. Cameron and Shane are excited about increasing communication between the various browser developers in the Australasian region, and about attracting more interest and new developers to browser development efforts.
Shane is a Software Engineer at Google, and a member of the Chrome team, working on the Web Animations specification, polyfill, and implementation in Blink. Shane has been involved with the open source community since university.
Shane's previous FLOSS-related projects have included liboggplay, which is a library for synchronized playback of ogg media; the Annodex Firefox plugin; and the Google Wave project as part of the API team.

Clubs Vermillion Lions Club
There were 43 members and guests present for the May 4 Vermillion Lions Club meeting. Items of business included a presentation by Young Moore on behalf of the Dakota Senior Meals. He presented an appreciation certificate to Lions President Julie Potter for the club's assistance in delivering Meals on Wheels.
Julie gave a report of participation in the State Lions Club Mobile Screening Unit that was in Vermillion during the Pancake Days. A total of 78 adults and five children took advantage of the health-screening program which checks for sight, hearing, diabetes, and blood pressure problems.
Lion Jack Doyle, Pancake Days chair, reported that we served 891 persons during the April event. He pointed out that attendance has been steadily increasing and set a goal of 1,000 for the fall Pancake Days.
President Julie reported two donations made by the Vermillion Lions Club. A contribution was given to the Dance Marathon that raised over $15,000 for the Children's Miracle Network. The other donation was to help purchase a laptop computer for a young person with a major medical condition.
Lion Don Mitchell inducted the following new members: Mel Larson, David Massey, Sid Davis, Delvin Anderson, and Marlyn Harnois as Vermillion Lions.
Program Chairman Loren Carlson introduced John Schmit who is the program director for the Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation. Two national news clips of the mountain carving were shown. John described the present activity at the memorial and the addition of a new Orientation and Communication Center. Official dedication is May 27. He pointed out that just as the Mount Rushmore Memorial is a tribute to all of our nation's leaders, the Crazy Horse Memorial is a tribute to all Native Americans. If the two carvings were placed side by side, Mount Rushmore would be smaller than the head of Crazy Horse. The work on the mountain is continuous and has no completion date. Funding is 65 percent from visitor fees and 35 percent private donations.
The next Board of Directors meeting was May 11 at 7 a.m.
Vermillion Rotary Club
The importance of Vermillion as a site on the Lewis and Clark Expedition's trail was the subject of a presentation to Rotarians Tuesday noon by Jim Peterson of Vermillion, retired University of South Dakota professor and past president of the national Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation, Inc.
The 59-mile Yankton-to-Ponca stretch is the only portion of the Missouri River from the main-stem dams to the St. Louis area that is close to its natural state, said Peterson. This makes Vermillion a focal point for tourists, historians and television producers who want to see what the river "was really like" when Lewis and Clark went upriver in 1804. Peterson is called upon often to guide television camera crews on river trips in the area.
Besides the river itself, Peterson said that Spirit Mound, six miles north of Vermillion on Highway 19, is one of the few places we know today where Lewis and Clark actually stood, as their journals document. Campsites and other spots associated with the expedition have washed away, become inundated, or are otherwise not known because of the passage of years. Thus, Spirit Mound will likely be visited by many thousands of persons between now and the end of the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial in 2006.
Earlier Tuesday at Vermillion High School's awards event, Rotary president Randy Houska presented Melissa Rydell with the club's annual scholarship for study at USD.
Bills Watts from Florida was a guest at Rotary's weekly meeting at the Silver Dollar, and the club's past president, Bruce Smith, was presented with an award for his service to the organization.
USD Emeritus Club
The USD Emeritus Club met at noon on Wednesday, May 3 at the Silver Dollar Restaurant. The featured speaker was Dr. Sharon Andrews, associate professor of education at Augustana College, Sioux Falls. Dr. Andrews spoke about a computer technology grant that she is currently engaged in completing. This grant, which is being used to interest high school students in attending college and subsequently becoming teachers, involved three colleges and three high schools.
The grant, supported by AT&T, emphasized utilizing computers for disseminating information and for the completion of high school student projects. The college students involved in the grant activities served as mentor for the Native American high school students participating in the grant. Dr. Andrews addressed both advantages and disadvantages of the use of computers as a teaching tool and emphasized that students still respond best to face-to-face presentations.
Dr. Wayne Knutson presented a report on the progress of work in the Shakespeare Garden. It is expected that the task of erecting an iron fence and completing brickwork will begin in the near future. Sylvester Clifford and Allen Johnson were elected to continue serving as co-chairs for the group meeting. Knutson will continue as liaison between the group and personnel working on the Shakespeare Garden, and Allen Johnson will remain as the Emeritus Club representative on the University Planning committee.
This was the final meeting of the Emeritus Club for this academic year and meetings will resume again in September.

PLAISTOW — In the first three months of the year, Plaistow police have stopped 1,000 more vehicles than they did for the same period a year ago.
Credit the addition of four police officers.
From Jan. 1 through March 31, police stopped 2,461 vehicles. That's 1,048 more than they stopped last year.
"When our new officers come out of the academy, they really want to keep themselves busy," Deputy Chief Kathleen Jones said. "They have been out there making themselves known."
Expect to see an even bigger uptick in stops now that spring has arrived, she said.
"Traffic safety is always the number one complaint that we get during the spring," Jones said. "It's a quality of life issue. We don't want people not to be able to back out of their driveways because people are speeding through the neighborhoods."
Christine Eldred, 36, of West Pine Street said drivers like to use her road to cut between Route 125 and Main Street. She said she has called police to complain in the past, but nothing ever came of it.
She hasn't called this year, she said, and she may not have to because she has noticed a change in police presence.
"The police are sitting there and they have been pulling people over right and left for the last few weeks," Eldred said. "They've definitely been out there patrolling the street more than in past years."
Eldred said motorists routinely go over the 30 mph speed limit on her road.
"I have little ones play in the front yard and it's insane," she said. "You have motorcycles flying down the road going 50 mph. Something needed to be done."
That's not the only number going up. DWI arrests have more than tripled for the same period. Last year, police made three DWI arrests in January through March. This year, they are already at 10.

I really like mums. I didn't always particularly though. When my friends and I were unruly teenagers skulking in parks after dark and knocking back gutrot that bore so little resemblance to actual vodka that it was labelled "vodka flavoured beverage" in basements, parents – our own and and others – were to be strictly avoided lest they… Actually I'm not sure exactly what, it was just the implied threat of having to have a conversation or something I guess.
