[Scene: Street. Phoebe and Paige pull up in their car, and Darryl pulls up in his car. They get out.]
Paige: You sure this is the right place?
Phoebe: It's just as I saw it in my premonition.
Paige: Yeah, but you kind of forced that premonition.
Phoebe: Darryl, will you hurry up, I got a date.
Darryl: Where's he gonna be?
Phoebe: At a restaurant down town.
Darryl: No, I meant where's the killer going to be?
Phoebe: Oh, he's going to be robbing a pawn shop in the alley.
Darryl: So exactly how do we know that he's possessed?
Paige: When the phantasm comes out of him and tries to annihilate us.
Darryl: Whoa, wait. So the perp's not responsible for the other killings? It's this, whatever you call it?
Phoebe: No, no, he is. The phantasm only possesses bad guys. To make them worse. Okay, shall we?
(Phoebe heads for the alley.)
Darryl: She really wants this demon, doesn't she?
Paige: No. She really wants her date.
[Cut to the alley. Phoebe and Paige are hiding beside a dumpster, watching the burglar break in to the pawn shop. Darryl joins them.]
Phoebe: Okay, go, go.
Darryl: Okay, just make sure you do your thing before any annihilating occurs, okay?
Phoebe: Have we ever let you down? Go.
(Darryl stands in the middle of the alley and points his gun at the burglar.)
Darryl: Freeze! Police!
(The burglar turns around. Phoebe comes out from behind the dumpster.)
Paige: Wait. Not yet. (The burglar pulls out his gun and shoots. Phoebe pushes Darryl out of the way just in time. The burglar shoots again. Darryl shoots at the burglar and hits him in the chest. He falls to the ground.) Throw the potion.
(Phoebe throws the potion and hits the burglar. The phantasm rises out of the burglar's body.)
Darryl: Mother of god.
Phoebe: Now. Now.
(Paige holds up a wand and sucks the phantasm into it. It screams as it gets sucked in.)
Paige: Want it?
Phoebe: No.
Darryl: You guys saved my life.
Paige: That's okay, we put you at risk. Again.
Phoebe: You caught a killer and you saved an innocent. Not bad for a night's work. I gotta go. Tell Sheila I said hi, okay?
(Phoebe and Paige rush out of the alley.)
Darryl: Uh, yeah, I'll call it in. You guys better get on out of here before... somebody sees you.
[Cut to the street. Phoebe and Paige walk towards their car. Paige sees a car parked near by.]
Paige: Hey, was that car there before?
Phoebe: Geez, Paige, relax. You act like we've never done this before.
[Cut to inside the car. Inspector Sheridan is there holding a video camera. She replays the footage and shows everything that just happened in the alley.]
Inspector Sheridan: Gotcha.
Opening Credits
[Scene: Manor. Kitchen. Phoebe is there making a potion. Paige walks in.]
Paige: Morning. How was your date?
Phoebe: Good. Other than the fact that he's not the man of my dreams.
Paige: You can tell that from one date?
Phoebe: I can tell that because I see nothing in the future for us besides s*x, and I'm not interested in that.
Paige: s*x?
Phoebe: No, wasting my time. Either you're the father of the child that I saw in my vision or not. So I'm moving on. Can you pass me the asphodel root?
Paige: Yeah. What, are you demon hunting?
Phoebe: No, lunch date. I want to make sure I get a hit off of him before the entrees come. No sense wasting those calories, right?
Paige: Wait a second. So now you're trying to force premonitions on your dates?
Phoebe: Well, it's the quickest way to find out who I'm looking for, right?
Paige: Does it even matter to you that you're breaking every wiccan rule that exists?
Phoebe: I think after all these years, I know what I'm doing. Besides, with Piper in magic school, we're down a power. We could use the extra boost.
Paige: Maybe. I just hope we don't misuse it.
(Chris orbs in.)
Chris: There's the book. Do you mind?
Phoebe: No, knock yourself out.
Chris: Been working some demonic connections. I think I have a new theory on who might be trying to turn Wyatt evil.
Paige: Oh, a new theory. What's that, the third one this week?
Chris: What? Are you keeping score now?
Phoebe: She's just grumpy because she hasn't had her coffee yet.
Paige: I am not grumpy. Okay, fine, maybe a little bit, but you have to admit you've had a lot of different theories lately, and none of them have panned out.
Chris: That's why they call them theories.
Paige: Do we even get along in the future?
Phoebe: How's Piper? Have you seen her?
Chris: She's good. Uh, big. You know, I keep thinking how weird it's gonna be to actually see myself being born.
Phoebe: And how's Leo?
Chris: Leo? Don't know. Haven't seen him.
Phoebe: That's because you're avoiding him still, aren't you? Chris, he's your father. You have to talk to him. How are you gonna change anything in the future if you don't?
Chris: That's not the future I came back to change. Thanks.
(Chris orbs out.)
Paige: Hey, don't look at me. I'm grumpy.
(The doorbell rings.)
[Cut to the foyer. Phoebe opens the door. Sheila is there crying.]
Phoebe: Sheila. What's the matter? Come in, come in, come in, come in.
(Paige walks in.)
Paige: What's going on?
Sheila: It's Darryl.
Phoebe: What about Darryl? Is he okay?
Sheila: They just arrested him. For murder.
(Phoebe and Paige stand there shocked.)
[Scene: Police Station. Room. Phoebe, Paige and Darryl are there.]
Darryl: I don't really know what happened. It's all kind of a blur.
Phoebe: What are you talking about? It was self defence. He shot first. Several times.
Darryl: He did?
Paige: You don't remember any of that? Did you get hit on the head or something? Maybe when you pushed him down.
Phoebe: No, he was fine after that. Something weird is going on here.
(A lawyer walks in.)
Lawyer: Lieutenant Morris. I'm sorry, but we really have to prepare for your arraignment.
Darryl: It's okay. They're my friends.
Phoebe: Yeah, and there's a problem here because this man is innocent.
Lawyer: Yeah? How do you know?
Phoebe: Because I was there... driving around in the area.
Lawyer: Perjuring yourself isn't going to help any, lady. The prosecution's evidence is overwhelming, trust me.
Paige: Evidence? What evidence?
Darryl: It's okay. Show them.
(The lawyer inserts a CD in his laptop and a video of Darryl and the burglar shows up on the screen. Darryl is pointing his gun at the burglar.)
Burglar: Please. Please don't kill me! No! Don't kill me!
(Darryl shoots his gun three times.)
Phoebe: That's not what happened.
[Cut to the office. Inspector Sheridan is sitting at her desk. Phoebe and Paige walk up to her.]
Phoebe: Inspector Sheridan.
Inspector Sheridan: Yes.
Phoebe: We would like to talk to you.
Paige: Easy.
Phoebe: Do you have a personal grudge against Darryl Morris?
Inspector Sheridan: Morris?
Phoebe: Yeah. We know you faked the images on the tape, and we're here to let you know that we're not gonna sit around and watch you frame our friend.
Paige: She's a little upset.
Inspector Sheridan: Yes, I can see that. And you are?
Phoebe: Phoebe. Phoebe Halliwell.
Inspector Sheridan: Halliwell. Hm. Your name certainly pops up in his file plenty. For the record, I didn't fake anything, 'cause I was there, undercover, and I saw it go down with my own eyes. I've been investigating Morris for a few weeks now, trying to figure out why so many of his suspects over the last five years just vanish or mysteriously wind up dead. Now I know. He takes the law into his own hands. Excuse me.
(She walks away.)
Paige: Well?
Phoebe: If she was lying, I couldn't sense it.
Paige: Then how do you explain what happened?
Commercial Break
[Scene: Market. The street is full of people walking around. Phoebe and Paige orb right in the middle of everyone. They all run away frightened.]
Paige: Sure hope this works.
Phoebe: It will. Coffee cart.
Paige: Orb away.
(The coffee cart orbs out.)
Phoebe: "Flowers that bring desire, make them turn into fire." (The flower stall goes up in flames. People scream. Suddenly the whole place freezes. The Cleaners appear.) I see you got our message.
Cleaner #1: What do you think you're doing now?
Phoebe: Well, we didn't know how else to call for you. Figured you weren't listed in the yellow pages.
Cleaner #1: What do you want?
Phoebe: We want to know why you framed Darryl Morris. That was your doing, wasn't it?
Cleaner #1: Magic was exposed. We were forced to clean it up.
Cleaner #2: Change what was.
Cleaner #1: To protect you.
Phoebe: I thought we resolved this the last time you guys tried to intervene. We clean up our own magical messes.
Cleaner #1: But you didn't even know about this one. You didn't realise you were being followed. Taped.
Paige: Yeah, well, we always manage to fix these things somehow.
Cleaner #1: No, you wouldn't have. That's why we were put on the case to begin with. It was anticipated.
Phoebe: You know what? I don't care. If you don't free Darryl Morris, we're just gonna keep exposing magic and...
(He holds up his hand.)
Cleaner #1: This will not be like our last encounter, Miss Halliwell. We're under strict orders not to negotiate with you this time.
Paige: Strict orders from whom?
[Scene: Magic School. Phoebe, Paige, Leo and Gideon are there.]
Leo: The Tribunal. It's a council made up of Elders and demons to monitor magic, to make sure nobody ever finds out about its use.
Gideon: At whatever the cost.
Leo: Which is why they created the cleaners and gave them the power to erase events, memories.
Paige: Or in this case, to change them.
Leo: Well, it's just part of the grand design, to allow magic to influence but not take over free will.
Gideon: It's the one thing both sides could agree upon.
Phoebe: Okay, so how do we find this tribunal?
(Piper walks in.)
Piper: Hey. What are you guys doing here? Uh-oh. What's wrong?
Leo: It's Darryl.
Paige: Our friendly Cleaners have struck again. He's in jail for murder.
Piper: What? Why? What happened?
Paige: Someone was in a hurry.
Phoebe: Oh, wait. Are we blaming me for this? Did we or did we not catch the demon?
Paige: Yeah, but you forced the premonition, so maybe we could've been more careful, and maybe we could've seen that somebody was watching.
Phoebe: And if I hadn't, we would've never caught the killer.
Leo: Alright, guys, this isn't helping.
Phoebe: I know, it isn't. There's only one thing that will.
[Scene: The Tribunal Council. Phoebe, Paige, Leo and Gideon orb in on the white floor. The floor is surrounded by black.]
Paige: Where are we?
Gideon: Nowhere. Anywhere. You don't want to know. You should know that the tribunal is not like anything you've ever faced before. They are not a power to be trifled with.
Phoebe: We understand.
Gideon: Do you? You might not like what's been happening to your friend, but be aware before you embark upon this journey that where it ends might just be worse.
Phoebe: Call them.
Gideon: "Di! Ecce hora! Uxor mea me necabit!"
(The faces of Crill, Thrask and Aramis, the tribunal, appear in the black area.)
Crill: What reason have you to call the tribunal?
Gideon: To challenge the actions of the cleaners on behalf... of the Charmed Ones.
Thrask: The Charmed Ones? But there are only two.
Aramis: The other is with child. I assume the sisters will speak for her in abstentia.
Phoebe: Yeah. In abstentia. Your... Greatness?
Paige: There's four of them. How do they break a tie?
Leo: You don't want to know.
Adair: Your request has been granted.
(Barbas flames in.)
Phoebe: Barbas? What the hell is he doing here?
Barbas: You missed me.
Paige: Didn't we vanquish you?
Barbas: To the fires of hell. I've been granted a temporary leave of absence in order to act as your opposing counsel.
Crill: We liked his pitch.
Leo: Pitch? What pitch? How did he even know about it?
Thrask: We have the right to choose anybody we wish.
Phoebe: Gideon.
Gideon: Your Honors, in the interests of facts...
Barbas: On that fairness issue, I submit that in order to expedite matters and to keep the Charmed Ones honest...
Paige: Us, honest?
Barbas: Uh, for their own good, we graphically remind them as to what exactly is at stake here so they do not foolishly try some trickery in order to slip away like they did the last time they faced the Cleaners.
Aramis: It is done.
Phoebe: What is done?
Gideon: I'm not sure.
(A hologram of Darryl and Sheila in a jail cell appears in the middle of the room.)
Paige: Darryl?
(The lawyer stands at the cell doors.)
Lawyer: The governor denied the stay.
Leo: What stay? What's going on?
Crill: We have accelerated time. But only for the execution.
Paige: Execution?
Adair: You have until midnight to convince us, or his sentence will be carried out.
Aramis: Magic will be protected one way or the other.
Commercial Break
[Scene: Tribunal Council. Phoebe and Paige are sitting on chairs.]
Paige: We didn't know that signing up for this would put Darryl on death row.
Gideon: I warned you about invoking the tribunal.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, you didn't warn us that they would call upon our worst enemy.
Aramis: Gideon, your case.
Gideon: Yes, your honour, in just a few more moments, if you please.
Thrask: We don't. You're the ones who called for us. Proceed.
Phoebe: We called for justice, not the Demon of Fear.
Barbas: I don't see the problem with me being here.
Phoebe: There's a conflict of interest, and we believe that the tribunal should recognise this. I think this is a setup.
Leo: Phoebe.
Adair: How dare you question our integrity.
Phoebe: Not yours. Theirs. (Phoebe stands up.) Barbas has tried to kill us three times in the past.
(Phoebe walks out onto the white floor. She steps on a round blue tile in the centre of the floor. She quickly steps back and a hologram appears.)
[The hologram shows:]
[Scene: From Fear to Eternity (1.03). Property. Phoebe is there.]
Phoebe: Mrs. Joffee. It's SWA Properties.
Mrs. Joffee's Voice: Hello, dear.
(Phoebe turns around to see Barbas.)
Barbas: Thanks so much for coming out.
(Barbas waves his hand in front of Phoebe's face.)
Phoebe: I know how you kill, but there are no elevators around here.
Barbas: Elevators? That's what you think your greatest fear is? You mortals need to look deeper, down where the real truth lies. Your greatest fear is losing a sister, and I get two for one.
(The hologram disappears.)
Barbas: Ha, the good old days.
Phoebe: What the hell was that?
Gideon: The circle of truth, it's enchanted. It reads thoughts and shows what needs to be seen. You must be careful.
Paige: Maybe you better just sit down.
Barbas: If I may, it is not my past evils that's in question here. What is in question here is these three witches' so called right to be continually cleaning up after their own magical asses.
Phoebe: We have to get out of here. We have to figure out how this happened.
Gideon: You can't. If you leave, Lieutenant Morris dies.
Paige: Does it really matter if we were set up? The point is, we were exposed.
Leo: But if we can prove he orchestrated the exposure, it might.
Phoebe: Go find out what you can. Hurry.
(Leo orbs out.)
Barbas: Was I boring him?
Gideon: With all due respect, if it truly is our case to present, may I? To better put this particular situation into its proper context, it bears reminding your honors of the long history, the long, successful history, the Charmed Ones have of shielding their magical tracks. If I may show you some examples...
[Scene: Magic School. Piper and Leo are there.]
Piper: I'm going.
Leo: No, you can't.
Piper: Well, I can't just let him hang either, Leo.
Leo: Piper, if it wasn't safe for you before, it's even less safe now with Barbas there. Please?
Piper: Well, what about Darryl? Does he even know what's happening?
Leo: No, and I'm not going to tell him either. I need to concentrate on proving that Barbas set him up.
Piper: How are you gonna do that?
Leo: I was hoping that you would call Chris and get him to use his demonic connections.
Piper: Why don't you ask him? Right. Chris?
(Chris orbs in.)
Chris: Yeah, mum, what do you... (He sees Leo.) Need.
Piper: We need your help.
[Scene: Tribunal Council.]
Gideon: The point being, the Charmed Ones have never once failed in their duty to keep the big secret. Witness.
(The hologram appears.)
[The hologram shows:]
[Scene: Womb Raider (4.21). Cole's Apartment. Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Darryl are there.]
Darryl: I made an appointment for you at missing persons today.
Paige: Wait, you want Phoebe to report Cole as missing?
Darryl: She has to. Otherwise somebody else will, and she'll become the prime suspect in his disappearance.
Phoebe: So you want me to pack up his stuff so it looks like he left me?
Darryl: That's right. We cannot give the police any reason to suspect foul play. I mean, technically, you three did kill him.
Paige: "Let the object of objection become but a dream, as I cause the scene to be unseen."
(The hologram disappears.)
Gideon: As you've just seen, Lieutenant Morris whom the Cleaners would have die to cover magic, is here instrumental in keeping it protected.
Barbas: Could you play that hologram just a tiny bit longer? Humour me.
Crill: Do it.
(The hologram appears.)
[The hologram shows:]
[Scene: Cole's Apartment. Paige moves closer to Phoebe.]
Paige: I just wish I could make the rest of your pain go away that easily.
Phoebe: So do I. You murdering witch!
(Phoebe smacks Paige in the face.)
(The hologram disappears.)
Phoebe: That's not fair, I was under the influence of evil.
Barbas: Yes, you were, but then it seems like you girls so often are under the influence of one thing or another.
(Another hologram appears.)
[The hologram shows:]
[Scene: Womb Raider (4.21). Police Station.]
Inspector Miles: Your husband fits the classic profile of a deadbeat dad.
(He turns away and a flame appears in Phoebe's hand.)
Leo: Make it go out.
Phoebe: I can't make it go out.
(Phoebe throws the fireball into a trash can.)
Darryl: Phoebe? I-I mean, fire!
(The hologram disappears.)
Barbas: Wait, you're gonna love this one.
(Another hologram appears.)
(The hologram shows)
[Scene: Bride and Gloom (3.13). Manor. Foyer.]
Marie: So glad you're home. We have some new floral sketches we'd like you to see.
Leo: Now's not really a good time.
Piper: They're welcome to come in, Leo.
Craig: I've revisited the dinner menu, Piper, and you are going to be thrilled. I have some dynamic choices that I...
Piper: I want pigs in blankets.
(The wedding planners laugh.)
Marie: It's nice to see a bride who still has a sense of humour this close to the big day.
Piper: No, I want pigs in blankets.
(Craig turns into a pig wearing a blanket. Marie screams.)
(The hologram disappears.)
Gideon: I frankly don't see the relevance of any of this. It's wholly beside the point.
Barbas: No, no, no. That is precisely the point. The Charmed Ones are so influenced by outside forces, how can we ever expect to continue to trust them to clean up after themselves?
Phoebe: We cleaned up after each and every one of those situations.
Barbas: But how close you came to not.
Aramis: Continue, Gideon.
Phoebe: (to Paige) Where is Leo?
[Scene: Underground. Chris is holding a demon over a firey pit. Leo is standing beside him.]
Chris: Barbas escaped the fires of hell, and so did you. I know he helped you.
Demon: Please, I don't want to back down there. Don't throw me back down there.
Leo: Chris, I don't think this is the best way.
Chris: Last chance, Phinks.
Phinks: Okay, okay, okay, okay! Phantasms. We used phantasms.
Leo: How?
Phinks: Uh, Barbas buddied up to a couple of them down there. He used them to do stuff for him, you know, since they can travel back and forth and all.
Chris: What kind of stuff?
Phinks: I don't know. I swear I don't know! But whatever it was, he said it could resurrect him somehow. It could give him new life, permanently too, he said, if he won something.
Leo: The case. He must have used the phantasm to cut a deal with the demon members of the tribunal. We need proof.
Chris: What do you think he is?
Leo: He's a demon. They'll discredit him.
Chris: It's better than nothing.
Leo: It's a waste of time.
Chris: It's the best we've got.
Leo: Then we need to do better.
Chris: Look... (Chris accidentally drops Phinks in the firey pit.) Shoot! Now look what you made me do!
Commercial Break
[Scene: Tribunal Council. They are watching another hologram.]
[Scene: House Call (5.13). Piper, Paige and Leo stand where the manor once was.]
Paige: Piper, what did you do with the house?
Piper: Oh my god. What have I done?
Leo: The spell, Piper. You need to reverse it fast.
Piper: I'm not sure I can.
Paige: Well, then you'd better make us disappear, because this one's gonna be tough to explain.
Leo: You can do it, Piper. Come on.
Piper: "Let the object of objection return, so that its existence may be reaffirmed."
(The manor appears around them.)
Paige: Nicely done.
(The hologram disappears.)
Gideon: So then, despite what Barbas would have you believe, regardless of outside influences, the sisters have always managed to protect magic, and therefore based upon all the evidence, we ask the tribunal, no, we demand that the cleaners be forced to reverse what they have done, that Lieutenant Morris be freed, and that The Charmed Ones be allowed to do what they have always done so well... cover their own tracks. Respectfully.
(Barbas claps.)
Barbas: Bravo! Really very compelling stuff, counsellor. In fact, I think that you've just successfully argued my case for me.
Paige: Now what's he up to?
Barbas: Now, obviously this whole thing has now become much, much bigger than just a simple case of whether the good lieutenant bites the dust, because as we have just seen, the recklessness displayed by these three witches has now become of epidemic proportion.
Gideon: Objection! May I remind my counterpart that this is simply a question of whether or not the situation should be reversed. It is not an indictment on the Charmed Ones.
Barbas: Maybe it should be.
Phoebe: This is what he's up to.
(Another hologram appears.)
Barbas: Voila!
[Scene: Witches in Tights (5.05). Building Roof. Superhero Phoebe is holding Edward Miller upside down over the edge.]
Edward: They don't have to move! They can stay for a year! Ten years!
Phoebe: What about the cockroaches? Are you gonna do something about the cockroaches?
Edward: First thing tomorrow. Just please don't drop me. Please!
(Cole appears behind Phoebe.)
Cole: Uh, Phoebe?
Phoebe: Cole. What are you doing here?
Cole: Well, I got a call from one of the tenants saying that Wonder Woman was terrorising the landlord. What the hell are you doing?
Phoebe: Well, I'm teaching my buddy here how important it is to be a better person.
Cole: I don't know what's going on here, but this is not you, literally.
Phoebe: Are you kidding? This is better than me. This is new and improved me. Now not only can I help my readers, but I can help the entire city.
Cole: Careful. He's got ears.
Phoebe: Oh, please, relax. The only thing he can hear right now is the blood rushing to his brain. (Phoebe pulls Edward up and throws him onto the roof.) Okay, Cole, I gotta go, because I've got a lot of loyal readers that need my help. Okay?
Cole: Okay.
(Phoebe whizzes off and jumps from roof to roof.)
(The hologram disappears.)
Barbas: And last, but by no means least, where were the Charmed Ones to clean up this mess?
(Another hologram appears.)
(The hologram shows:)
[Scene: Sam I Am (5.09). Bar. Cole is sitting at the bar, unshaven, drinking a shot of whiskey. Two thugs with shotguns walk in.]
Thug #1: All your valuables, all your money! Hurry up! Watches, wallets.
(The bartender reaches behind the bar and pulls out a gun. He points it at the thugs and before he can shoot, is shot down by Thug #1.) Come on, nothing's changed. Give me the money. Hurry up!
(A biker makes a run for the exit and Thug #2 shoots continually trying to hit the biker. The biker runs past Cole and a bullet shoots straight through his chest, breaking the glass of whiskey in his hand. The thug looks at his gun, wondering how Cole is still alive. The bullet wound in Cole magically heals. He turns to the thugs and telekinetically sends the thugs crashing against the wall. Everyone runs for the exit. Thug #1 reaches for his gun and Cole throws an energy ball, incinerating him.)
(The hologram disappears.)
Phoebe: That is absurd. That was Cole. We weren't responsible for that. We weren't even there.
Barbas: Ah, but you were there, Phoebe. It was your cold rejection of his love that drove him to that reckless despair. So I say that you were responsible. Hexes, possession, evil influences, affairs of the heart. I say we're lucky that all the magic has not been exposed beyond repair long before now. If we want to protect all that we are, all that this tribunal stands for, then I say we should not be just deciding the fate of some poor, pathetic mortal. No, we should be deciding the fate of these three, and whether they should ever be permitted to practice magic again.
Aramis: So be it.
Commercial Break
[Scene: Manor. Attic. Leo and Chris are there. Leo is looking through the Book of Shadows.]
Chris: Okay, I get the fact that Barbas used the phantasm to cut a deal so he could try the case. But that still doesn't explain how he set up the girls.
Leo: To get it to possess the killer, so the sisters would get onto him.
Chris: But that's only part of it. Alright? How did he even know Darryl was under investigation in the first place?
Leo: There is nothing in here about phantasms that we don't already know.
Chris: Hey! Did you listen to a word I just said?
Leo: What?
Chris: Never mind.
Leo: You know what? This is ridiculous, okay. It's obvious you hate my guts, Chris. I understand. I'm a horrible father in the future, okay, but there's nothing I can do about that right now. So can we concentrate on working together to save Darryl and save the girls, please?
Chris: Fine.
Leo: Great. Alright, let's start with what we know. How about phantasms?
Chris: Wait, that's it. Phantasms, plural. Phinks said Barbas buddied up to a couple of them, right? Well, that means there must be another one out there for us to find.
Leo: See? I knew we could work together.
[Scene: Tribunal Council.]
Gideon: Are you sure about this?
Paige: Yeah. If they're gonna put us on trial too, it might be the only way to save Darryl. We have to stand on our record.
Phoebe: If all the good we've done in the last six years isn't good enough, then nothing is.
Gideon: Very well. (to Barbas) Your witness.
Barbas: Now, let's see. So many holograms, so little time.
Thrask: Barbas.
Barbas: Oh, well, I guess I should ask one of the cleaners a few quick questions.
Crill: As you wish.
(Cleaner #1 appears in the witness chair.)
Barbas: You have been assigned to watch The Charmed Ones since they first became witches, have you not?
Cleaner #1: That is correct.
Barbas: Would Lieutenant Morris be the first policeman to die in order to clean up one of their little magical messes.
Cleaner #1: No.
Phoebe: Uh-oh.
(A hologram appears.)
(The hologram shows:)
[Scene: Déjà vu All Over Again (1.22). Manor. Foyer. Piper and Phoebe are there.]
Piper: Are you okay?
Phoebe: Yeah. (They look in the living room to see Andy laying on the floor.) Oh.
(They run over to Andy and Piper checks his pulse.)
Piper: Oh my god. He's dead.
(The hologram ends.)
Barbas: Truly tragic. That was their sister Prue's first true love. I wonder whatever happened to her.
(Phoebe goes to stand up.)
Gideon: Don't. It's not worth it.
Barbas: Anyone else?
Cleaner #1: Yes. Inspector Reece. We had to keep a close watch on him.
(Another hologram appears.)
[Scene: Death Takes A Halliwell (3.16). Manor. Foyer. Phoebe opens the front door. Inspector Reece stands there.]
Phoebe: Inspector. How can I help you?
Inspector Reece: You can tell me where to find Cole Turner. I know he's alive, and I know he's in town.
Phoebe: Really.
Inspector Reece: Yeah, really. Want to know how? Because his former landlady was found brutally murdered at his address.
Phoebe: Oh my god. That's awful.
Inspector Reece: Awful like you can't imagine.
Phoebe: I know what you're thinking. And I know what this looks like. And I am, I am so sorry for what happened to...
Inspector Reece: You're sorry? Her eyes were frozen open in terror. Her skull was punctured in two places. And by the time the police got there, most of her brain had spilled out onto the floor. Be sick, be horrified, but don't stand there lying to me and say you're sorry. I'm gonna find him, Miss Halliwell, and then I'm gonna bust his ass. And then I'm gonna bust yours.
(The hologram disappears.)
Barbas: And did he find him?
Cleaner #1: No, he did not.
[Scene: Death Takes A Halliwell (3.16). Church. A Seeker comes up from behind Inspector Reece and bites him on the neck. Phoebe and Piper stand behind locked gates.]
Piper: Open the gate!
(The hologram ends.)
Barbas: We were lucky one of those demons came along and tied up that loose end, aren't we? It's a rhetorical question. Never mind.
Cleaner #1: There was another. An FBI agent.
Barbas: That's right.
(Another hologram appears.)
(The hologram shows:)
[Scene: Witch Way Now? (4.22). Manor. Dining room. Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Agent Jackman are there. He slides a thick folder to the girls.]
Agent Jackman: In case you're wondering, that's just a copy.
(They flip through the file to find photos of them.)
Phoebe: Nice way to engender trust, Agent Jackman.
Agent Jackman: If I wanted to expose you, I could've done that six months ago when that file first crossed my desk.
Paige: Expose us as what?
Agent Jackman: Witches. It's the only logical explanation for all the unsolved cases, the missing persons, the mysterious deaths.
(The hologram ends.)
Paige: That is out of context. He was a witch hunter, he tried to kill us.
Barbas: The only context I'm interested in is what happened to yet another officer of the law. Witness.
(Another hologram appears.)
[Scene: Witch Way Now? (4.22). Park. Agent Jackman shoots his gun at Phoebe. The bullet flies through the air in slow motion. Cole near by, uses one of his powers to switch Phoebe and Agent Jackman. The bullet hits Agent Jackman in the chest.]
(The hologram disappears.)
Barbas: Seems like that stream of unsolved deaths left in the Charmed Ones' wake just keeps right on growing, doesn't it? So I guess the obvious question is how many more Inspectors must die before it comes to an end?
Gideon: Another rhetorical question?
Barbas: Actually, no. In fact, that is what I think becomes the salient question because the deaths could end with Lieutenant Morris. That's what I think. What do you think?
Phoebe: Objection. Why should we care what he thinks?
Gideon: Phoebe.
Crill: I care.
Phoebe: Yeah, well, of course you care. You're a demon.
Adair: I care too.
Phoebe: Oh. Well, then never mind.
Cleaner #1: I think that there will always be another Inspector Sheridan to pick up on their trail.
Paige: Wait a minute.
Barbas: Unless...
Cleaner #1: It ends with Morris.
Phoebe: (to Paige) What?
Barbas: No further questions, rhetorical or otherwise. (Barbas waves his hand and Cleaner #1 disappears.) Oh, sorry. Did you have more questions of him?
Gideon: Yes, as a matter of fact.
Paige: No. We're fine. Carry on.
Gideon: Paige, what are you doing?
Barbas: Unfortunately for us, ending the stream of deaths with Morris only solves our problem of the past. It does absolutely nothing to protect us against our future problems. So how much longer can we afford to tempt the gods of fate with the recklessness of the Charmed Ones, and at what point does that day finally come when it's just simply too late to clean up after one of their little magical messes? And then all of magic is exposed to the world forever because of them, and that is the question you're going to have to answer because I rest my case.
Aramis: Gideon.
Gideon: Nothing further.
Crill: We will return with the verdict.
(The tribunal council disappear.)
Phoebe: Okay, this better be good.
(Paige nods.)
Paige: Leo! (Leo and Chris orb in.) Hey, you guys are speaking now.
Chris: Uh, let's not make a big deal about it, okay?
Paige: Fine. What'd you find out?
Leo: Okay, you know that phantasm you vanquished? Apparently Barbas sent it so you'd follow it.
Chris: And apparently he gets a get out of hell free card too if he wins the case.
Phoebe: I knew this was a setup.
Leo: But we can't prove it, so we've been trying to find another phantasm, but we can't seem to...
Paige: If it's anywhere, it has to be inside Inspector Sheridan. It's the only way Barbas knew she'd be in the right place at the right time.
Phoebe: Okay, go get her. Bring her back here. Hurry.
(Leo and Chris orb out.)
[Scene: Jail Cell. Darryl and Sheila are there hugging. Piper suddenly appears.]
Darryl: Piper. What are you doing here? How'd you do that?
Piper: That's why they call it magic school. Come on. I'm gonna get you out of here.
Darryl: What?
Piper: Right now. Let's go.
Sheila: You mean, just leave?
Piper: That's the idea.
Darryl: No.
Piper: What do you mean, no? We'll figure it out. We'll fix it later.
Darryl: Uh, no, Piper. I can't. What if you can't fix this? What am I supposed to do then? Run? Hide? That's not right. I'm no fugitive. I'm a cop.
(Piper disappears.)
[Cut to the tribunal council. Piper appears behind Phoebe and Paige.]
Piper: How did I get here?
Phoebe: Piper! What are you doing here?
Piper: I don't know.
Paige: Why don't you go back? Go.
Thrask: She can't. We have brought her to hear the judgment.
Adair: Since it impacts all of you.
Phoebe: This doesn't look good.
Paige: Where the hell is Leo?
Aramis: As to whether or not the Charmed Ones shall be allowed to continue to practice magic, the judgment is... in favour of the sisters.
Crill: But against the Lieutenant. The trail of exposure must end with him.
[Scene: Jail Cell. Darryl and Sheila are there. The lawyer opens the cell door.]
Lawyer: I'm afraid it's time.
Sheila: No, no, no, no. Please don't take him.
Darryl: Please, baby. Please.
Sheila: Please don't. No, no, no.
(They kiss and Darryl walks out of the cell where two guards are waiting. Sheila cries.)
Commercial Break
[Scene: Tribunal Council.]
Phoebe: You have got to be kidding me, right? I mean, you can't really be doing this.
Gideon: Phoebe, they have already.
Phoebe: Look, he doesn't care about protecting magic. All he cares about is himself and getting out of purgatory. So not only did he set us up, but he set you up too.
Barbas: Always trying to blame somebody else, aren't you?
Phoebe: You son of a...
Gideon: Listen to me, you have to stop this. Do you understand? They haven't taken away your powers yet, but they still can.
Paige: Then let them. If this is the thanks that we get for all of our good work, if this is the way the system works, then you can keep our stupid powers.
Gideon: Paige!
Piper: No, she's right. If Darryl dies, that's it. We're done, we quit.
Barbas: You know, that would solve any of our future exposure issues, now, wouldn't it?
Aramis: You'd have us erase your memories? Change all that you know?
Adair: All that you are?
Phoebe: If necessary.
Aramis: Very well.
[Scene: Execution Room. 11:58. Darryl is strapped to a chair. A guard turns a machine on.]
[Scene: Tribunal Council. Leo and Chris orb in with Inspector Sheridan.]
INSPECTOR SHERIDAN: Get off of me! What is this? Wh-where am I?
Chris: That's a nice act. It's very convincing.
Barbas: Objection! He cannot bring a mortal down here. It is outrageous.
Leo: Sit down and shut up.
Crill: What is the meaning of this?
Chris: Watch.
(Chris pushes Inspector Sheridan onto the blue part of the floor and a hologram appears.)
(The hologram shows:)
[Scene: Police Station. Inspector Sheridan sits at her desk. A phantasm appears behind her and enters her body. She gets up and walks over to a filing cabinet. She pulls out Darryl's file.]
(The hologram disappears.)
Inspector Sheridan: (to Barbas) What now?
Barbas: Oh, surrounded by idiots.
(Leo throws a potion at Inspector Sheridan and the phantasm escapes her body. Chris holds up the wand and sucks the phantasm into it. Inspector Sheridan faints.)
Piper: Huh. Guess there's some cleaning up to do there.
Aramis: What do you have to say for yourself, Barbas?
Barbas: I'm a demon. What do you expect?
Gideon: Based on the evidence, I beg you to reverse the decision before it's too late.
[Scene: Execution room. Only seconds till midnight. They put a needle into Darryl's arm. Darryl squeezes his fists and closes his eyes.]
Sheila's Voice: Darryl.
(Darryl opens his eyes. He's no longer in the execution room, but sitting at his desk in the police station. Sheila stands in front of him.)
Sheila: Did you forget we were gonna go out tonight?
(Darryl gets up and hugs Sheila. Inspector Sheridan walks past. The Cleaner walks in near by and looks around. Satisfied with everything, he disappears.)
[Cut to the tribunal council.]
Aramis: It is done.
Adair: And as for you, Barbas...
Barbas: Oh, no. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Now just because I'm the one who set this whole thing up does not necessarily mean that I am not right. The Charmed Ones are reckless with magic.
Paige: Oh, please.
Barbas: You've seen it, I've seen it, we've all seen it time after time, and it doesn't even include what got them into this whole mess in the first place.
Phoebe: Uh, I think that would be you.
Barbas: Ah, Phoebe, that would be you, with your ongoing zeal to force your premonitions, to short-circuit the process, take the easy way, and for what? Each and every time, it was for personal gain. I don't know, but it just seems to me like selfish behaviour like that, there's got to be some consequences, or, well... what's the point?
(The tribunal look at each other.)
Crill: Phoebe will be stripped of her powers.
Phoebe: What?
ADAIR: Just your active powers. Empathy, premonitions.
Thrask: Levitation.
Adair: You can earn them back, but only if you're more careful with your powers.
Aramis: If you're all more careful.
(The tribunal vanish.)
Paige: You can't just say that and leave.
Piper: Gideon, get them back here now.
Phoebe: No. It's okay. I mean, it might be kind of refreshing to not rely on my powers so much anymore, you know? Besides, they're not the only ones that think I've been misusing them.
Piper: Are you sure?
Phoebe: Yeah. Let's get out of here.
(They orb out.)
Barbas: Ah, looks like I did just enough to win the case. You know what that means? That means I'm back! Oh, I know, counsellor. I know. You're afraid. (Barbas waves his hand in front of Gideon.) That your greatest fear is that somehow they're going to find out that you're the one that's after Piper's son. But don't be worried. I won't tell anyone. I promise. Nary a soul.
(Barbas flames out.)

Teachers found dog treat bakery to create jobs for autistic adults
When Angie Gamades worked as a special education teacher at Chaska High School, she often baked with her students with autism and other intellectual disabilities. They found the meticulous, repetitious work soothing.
The students loved it so much that years later, they would call up Gamades and invite her to bake with them. The teacher eventually realized that these young adults had an untapped talent. Here was a chance to create meaningful jobs, something which the vast majority of adults with autism are deprived.
After graduation, special ed students could go to district- or state-run programs that help them find work. The opportunities are competitive, but the jobs are often menial and underpaid.
Autistic adults are often paid according to how quickly a normal employee could do the same job. If a normal worker was paid 10 cents to package one box, and an autistic worker could only package10 boxes an hour, he or she would earn just $1 an hour.
So Gamades, now at Cedar Ridge Elementary in Eden Prairie, teamed up with fellow teacher Kyle Gallus of Hillcrest Community School in Bloomington to rent a commercial kitchen in Chaska. They hired six former students to bake dog treats two nights a week in return for a full hourly wage. Finley's Barkery was born.
"A lot of our employees do janitorial or packaging work during the day, and that doesn't really inspire them," Gallus says. "They look forward to coming into the kitchen so they can talk and sing while we bake. It's one thing to just have a job. It's another thing to feel truly a part of something. No employee should feel like you just show up to work, and you move on at 3 o'clock."
So far Finley's Barkery doesn't have a brick and mortar store, just a website. But the teachers believe it's now time to bring their employees into the public, where they can hawk their product to dog owners face-to-face. They've begun crowdfunding for a "Bark Truck," which will transport employees and treats to food truck events, adoption events, dog parks, and breweries across the Twin Cities.
The hope is to get their employees, who have various degrees of social and sensory anxiety, to practice being among people and community activity.
"Not every employee is comfortable going out into the public and selling treats," Gallus says. "What we've found is with the right setting, with the right coaching, our employees can do sales just as well as you or I."
This past summer, he says, a young woman who was deathly afraid of dogs wanted to try selling treats at a dog event. She was able, after the second or third event, to come out from behind the table and begin handing out samples. Now she's comfortable telling people what's in the treats, where they're made, how much they cost.

Stop Hitting Yourself, which was created by Rude Mechs, the Austin, TX-based theatre collective, opened at the Claire Tow Theater Jan. 27. It is written by Kirk Lynn and directed by Shawn Sides. Performances continue through Feb. 23.
As part of the 9:30 PM concert, composer/bandleader Reynolds will discuss the creation of the music for the play, which is described as "part Busby Berkeley, part self-help lexicon." The evening is hosted by Rebecca Havemeyer.
Reynolds recently scored "Before Midnight" (featuring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy) and "Bernie" (featuring Jack Black), and his "A Scanner Darkly" score was named Best Soundtrack of the Decade by Cinema Retro magazine. Reynolds creates, performs and records music for film, theatre, dance, rock clubs and concert halls with collaborators ranging from Richard Linklater to DJ Spooky to Ballet Austin.
The cast of Stop Hitting Yourself features Thomas Graves, Heather Hanna, Joey Hood, Hannah Kenah, Lana Lesley, E. Jason Liebrecht and Paul Soileau.
Here's how the 90-minute production is billed: "Part Pygmalion, part Busby Berkeley, part self-help lexicon, Stop Hitting Yourself borrows from the plots of 1930's musicals to dig deep into the contemporary conservative dilemma: how to honor steely individualism without disavowing the virtue of charity -- all the while tap-dancing around a queso fountain. "Once a year, at the Charity Ball, a single worthy cause is chosen to benefit from the Queen's Annual Good Deed. Prominent families compete to find citizens deserving of assistance. This year, a Socialite has discovered a Wildman in the forest and tries to improve him. The Wildman's desire to save the natural world and usher in an era of love and harmony is a sure-winner. Now the Socialite must teach him how to eat, dance and behave in society so that his cause can be victorious."
Tickets, priced $20, are available at the Lincoln Center Theater box office, telecharge.com or by visiting lct3.org.

Within many hormone-receptor positive breast cancers lives a subpopulation of receptor-negative cells – knock down the hormone-receptor positive cells with anti-estrogen drugs and you may inadvertently promote tumor takeover by more dangerous, receptor-negative cells.
A study recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences describes how to switch these receptor-negative cells back to a state that can be targeted by existing hormone therapies.
"We found that these estrogen-receptor negative cells express high levels of a Notch receptor protein," says James Haughian, PhD, investigator at the University of Colorado Cancer Center and instructor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. "And when you blockade this Notch activity, you end up with a pure population of hormone-receptor positive cells."
Very basically, within a breast cancer, you frequently have different kinds of cells living together – some that have estrogen receptors and thus need to "grab" estrogen in order to survive, grow and replicate.
And, Haughian finds, some with similar Notch receptors that need to "grab" Notch proteins in order to survive, grow and replicate. On cells without estrogen receptors but with Notch receptors, they blockade this Notch pathway and the cell again becomes dependent on estrogen – and thus likely treatable with anti-estrogen therapies.
"It's rare to get something that works so fantastically well as this," Haughian says.
Whether this switch from hormone-insensitive to hormone-sensitive is due to basic evolution – killing the triple-negative cells leaves more resources for the growth of hormone-receptor positive cells – or whether inhibiting Notch signaling, in fact, causes triple-negative cells to grow hormone receptors is still under investigation.
Whatever the precise mechanism, drugs that inhibit this Notch activity are already in clinical trials for breast cancer. However, Kathryn Horwitz, PhD, investigator at the CU Cancer Center and Distinguished Professor of Endocrinology at the CU School of Medicine theorizes that, "Monotherapy with a Notch inhibitor might not be enough on its own, but may convert the cancer into a hormone-therapy treatable state."
This finding that Notch inhibition converts a triple-negative cancer subpopulation to a hormone-receptor positive population implies the potential usefulness of combination therapy – perhaps a Notch inhibitor to make all the cancer's cells hormone-sensitive, followed by an anti-estrogen to treat them.
"Theorizing that and proving it is another matter," Horwitz says. "But if a clinician came knocking on our door, we'd say hey, let's try it."

Park Construction
Brook Run Dog Park Improvements
Dunwoody has gone to the dogs
Brook Run Dog Park is an active and popular amenity within Brook Run Park. The dog park is enjoyed by many dogs and their owners for the natural beauty and shaded areas that it provides.
In June 2014, the City Council directed staff to work on a relocation compromise that repositioned the dog park fencing and increased the distance between the dog park and the park's western edge. The improvements to the Dog Park will maintain and improve the desirable features of the existing park.
The new dog park now has a 2-acre large dog area and a .25-acre small dog area. Water faucets and a wash station are also available for visitors' convenience.
Project Phases
The renovations are complete!
The renovations of the Brook Run Dog Park are complete and the new Dog Park is now open to the public.
The newly positioned and upgraded dog park includes a 2-acre area for large dogs, a .4-acre small dog area, new water stations, new gravel fitness path around the perimeter of the large and small dog park areas, new large open area for catch or Frisbee, and new entry and exit gates.

Grant Program
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast cancer is an illness that afflicts millions each year, surmising one in every four cancer diagnoses in women.
In October, Haemonetics employees and their families in Covina, CA participated in the American Cancer Society's Making Strides event in Santa Monica. They participated under the team name "Pink Ribbons" and walked with hundreds of others through the city to raise awareness and funding for breast cancer research. Although progress is being made, diagnoses of breast cancer continue to rise; one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.
Left to right: Sonia Gonzales, Sonia Marin, Magda Sanchez and a friend of Haemonetics.
Altogether, the event raised $136,580 for cancer research. We are proud of our employees and their friends and families who gave their time to this important cause. We thank them for helping Haemonetics be the socially responsible organization we strive to be.

TAMPA - The grim look on Jon Gruden's face spoke for all of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
A day after completing an 0-for-December collapse that kept them out of the playoffs, the coach and his players were still struggling to explain why their season fell apart after a promising start.
Gruden made several references to injuries, conceded for the first time that the impending departure of longtime defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin became a distraction, and reiterated he has to take responsibility for the team's performance down the stretch.
"You are what you are," Gruden said Monday, reflecting on a 9-7 record that left the Bucs out of the playoffs for the fourth time in six years.
"I hate not competing for championships, and we're not," he added. "So it's not a very good season, not good enough."
The Bucs were 9-3 and tied for first place in the NFC South heading into December, but finished with losses to Carolina and Atlanta on the road and San Diego and Oakland at home, where they had been 6-0.
One more win would have landed an NFC wild-card berth.
"Clearly at 9-3 you don't expect to miss the playoffs. There's not a lot of explanation for it at this point, and it's an emotional time right now," backup quarterback Brian Griese said. "You have to wait, and kind of digest and look back and figure out what you can do better as an individual, and go forward and get better."
Although linebacker Derrick Brooks and others insisted Kiffin's decision to join his son, Lane, at the University of Tennessee at the end of the season was not a factor for the defense, there's no denying the results were not the same after the move was announced Nov. 30.
After limiting opponents to 95.4 yards per game rushing in the first 12 games, the Bucs yielded 189 per game on the ground in December. The unit gave up 16.7 points per game en route to the 9-3 start, then allowed 30.8 per game during the four-game losing streak.
"No matter who writes the story, that's not a recipe for success in this league. ... It's really heartbreaking," Gruden said.
"We're built to finish (strong)," Brooks added, "and we didn't."
Secondary coach Raheem Morris will replace Kiffin as defensive coordinator next season, and other possible changes include the departure of quarterback Jeff Garcia.
Garcia was a Pro Bowl selection a year ago when he led the team to a division title, but he's had a rocky relationship with Gruden since then.
The 38-year-old choked back tears while talking about his future following Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Raiders.
"It's difficult to think about football right now, honestly. ... As much as I and everybody in that locker room wanted to prolong the season and find a way to get into the playoffs, unfortunately it wasn't in the cards for us," Garcia said.
"For me, there are a lot of question marks as to what is going to happen this offseason. I can't even say whether it's 50-50 or what, but if this is my last game as a Buccaneer, I just really want to thank my teammates and the fans. ... It's been awesome, and we'll just see what happens."
While Gruden said he'd like Garcia to return, he's also open to potentially bringing in a new starter.

Remote damage control resuscitation: ???
THOR Position Paper on Remote Damage Control Resuscitation: Definitions, Current Practice and Knowledge Gaps
Jenkins DH et Al. Shock. 2014 May; 41(0 1): 3–12.
The concept of RDCR is in its infancy and there is a significant amount of work that needs to be done to improve outcomes for patients with life-threatening bleeding secondary to injury. The pre-hospital phase of their resuscitation is critical and if shock and coagulopathy can be rapidly identified and corrected prior to hospital admission this will likely reduce morbidity and mortality. The THOR Network is committed to improving outcomes for patients with traumatic injury through education, training and research. This position statement begins to standardize the terms used, provides an acceptable range of therapeutic options, and identifies the major knowledge gaps in the field.

We all know that too many sweets are bad for teeth. But there are a few "not so well known" diet tips that can result in a beautiful smile.
Eat carbs at mealtimes. Carbs, such as breads and chips, break down into the sugars that teeth-harming bacteria love! However, when carbs are eaten with larger amounts of food (a full meal instead of just a snack), more saliva is produced and that helps wash away the food particles that attract the nasty bacteria.
Sip with a straw. Most sodas, sports drinks and juices contain acid that can erode tooth enamel. Sipping these beverages through a straw that's positioned at the back of the mouth limits their contact with teeth.

Hands up, cheese lovers!
Happy #CheeseLoversDay!
Do you remember your earliest cheese memories? I do!
Just about the only cheese I had access to growing up in Singapore was Kraft's parmesan cheese. Whenever my mum made spaghetti bolognese, I would pour a towering pyramid of the stuff out of those green and yellow tins. Much to the dismay of my family, because they thought it stank like sweaty socks.
Well, I didn't complain about the stench when they ate durians.
Yes, I'm a weird Singaporean for not enjoying durians as much as most.
By the way, this is my favourite ode to cheese.
Make Your Own Cheese
Making your own cheese seems like a terribly complicated (and perhaps dangerous) process, but if you want to give it a whirl, here are some cheeses you can make at home.
Labneh is a super simple fresh cheese you can make with Greek yoghurt, cheesecloth, a sieve and some string. Try adding fresh herbs for a flavour kick. Other simple cheeses you can make at home are paneer (milk and limes) and ricotta (milk, cream, lemons and salt).
If you'd like to get more advanced, try Mad Millie's cheese making kits. I got one of their first cheese making kits at a food show ages ago to make my own feta – a success! The kit even came with its own small purple eksy. I don't think any of their kits include the eksy anymore, but they do contain everything to make your own range of cheeses, including halloumi and mozzarella.
Australian Cheese You Gotta Try
The world of cheese is a lot bigger than Kraft cheese slices, so get out there and love them all!
Here are just some of my favourites. They are made right here in Australia, and some of them could possibly be in your local supermarket!
- Woombye Handcrafted Cheese's Triple Cream Brie
- Barambah Organics's marinated feta
- Bruny Island Cheese and Beer Co.'s Tom
- Yarra Valley Dairy's Ashed Pyramid

Dr Booth reassures patients
Dr David Booth who runs the Cedar Clinic in Portlaoise, is preparing to take on Dr Hickey's public patients.
"There is an administration process before anything is confirmed" he said.
He says he has has room.
"We operate a 10,000 sq foot purpose built centre, with 14 consultancy suites, six doctors, four nurses and free parking, in the centre of a large residential area, with a pharmacy on site. This practice has gone from being single handed to six GPs in ten years, people vote with their feet," he said, adding that he intends to take on an additional doctor.
He does not see the 1.5 mile distance from Dr Hickey's practice as a problem.
"We have patients travelling from Ballyroan, Mountmellick, Emo, and from St Brigid's Place. I don't have a concern with the level of service we are planning to provide, and I don't see why people should have," he said.
He tries to offer 'same day' appointments he says.
"While I can't guarantee it, it is our policy. It is possible to see your doctor of choice. We try to accommodate patients, but they can be facilitated with another doctor," he said.
Holding a satellite clinic on the far side of town is not a runner.
"When you have a state of the art premises, it wouldn't make sense, we have a centralised service here and can provide more, but I am not saying we are better than the person down the road," he said.

Two Saturdays ago, my son and I joined a trip to Gyeongbok Palace supported by the Jongro Family Center. My husband had to go to work that day. There were about 30 or so families that joined the free guided tour (by curators of the National Museum). I had to sneak out from the tour group really early since my son wasn't in the mood to listen to a lecture. It was quite interesting though since I learned something I didn't know before.
I brought my son to Namsan Hanok Village, which is located in Chungmuro, the "Hollywood of Korea". It wasn't our first time of course and I've lost count of how many times I've been there. It's a nice inexpensive (free admission!) place that showcases "hanok" or traditional Korean noble houses without leaving Seoul and it's so near a subway station. More about this in a later post (hopefully!)
After the visit at Namsan Hanok Village, we took the yellow bus to Namsan's N Seoul Tower. The last time I visited the place was in April. Eventhough I've been there lots of times, I don't get tired of the place since there is always something new to discover everytime.
Once we got off the bus, we had to take a hike to where the tower is located.
This time, I took my son to the observatory and I had to pay 7,000 won for the admission ticket. My son is free since he's younger than 4. We took the elevator at the basement area and it didn't take us long to reach the top.
The observatory has one of the nicest toilets in Korea! It's just annoying that the floor is a bit wet.
We didn't spend a lot of time at the observatory since there really isn't much to do there 🙂 We went down the elevator and proceeded to the second floor deck where the "locks of love" are located.
Like a lot of places in Seoul, this tourist area isn't devoid of "art works" like this flying man?
At the second floor deck too is a huge teddy bear that failed to get my son's attention! There is a Teddy Bear Museum with an admission fee. There is also a Teddy Bear Museum store at the lobby where you can get Teddy Bear souvenirs.
Some scenes at N Seoul Tower:
A guy in a suit and a woman in hanbok is a scene stealer in the summer heat!

I don't remember seeing Coldstone back in April. Search for the best fat burner before getting your favorite Coldstone concoction.
A palgakjeong is an eight-sided gazebo. A traditional sight at modern N Seoul Tower.
Oh how difficult it is to take a full shot of the tower! I did this before…
A group of teens approached this Caucasian family and asked if they could pose with them for a picture.
Smoke signals
I chatted with these three young Pinoys for almost half an hour but I forgot to ask their names.
I thought that we'll took the cable car to go down but the line was really long, so I just decided to walk down this side of the mountain. We passed by a "photo deck" where I saw a couple wearing matching BANC shirts. BANC is currently IN.
Here's a view of Myeongdong from the photo deck.

Phantom Thread Movie Review
Paul Anderson's Phantom Thread digs into the exclusive world of eccentrics - the life and loves of three control freaks who demonstrate their peculiarities with grandiose eloquence
Phantom Thread
U/A: Drama, romance
Cast: Daniel Day-Lewis, Lesley Manville, Vicky Krieps, Gina McKee, Richard Graham
Director: Paul Thomas Anderson
Paul Anderson's 'Phantom Thread' has the thespian Daniel Day-Lewis venture out into the sublime, in what he has announced as his final film appearance - as renowned dressmaker Reynolds Woodcock who along with his sister Cyril are at the center of British fashion in 1950s London - dressing royalty, movie stars, heiresses, socialites and debutantes.
Antiquated around the early 1950s, Anderson's Phantom Thread digs into the exclusive world of eccentrics – the life and loves of three control freaks who demonstrate their peculiarities with grandiose eloquence. This is, in fact, an unconventional psychological melodrama of love that spars all along with desire and gamesmanship. The knitted growth of Alma's character is juxtaposed against the warp and weft of Woodcocks- allowing for a contrast that evolves into something intense and engaging.
Woodcock is never short of beautiful women to dress-up and make love to but when Alma (Vicky Krieps), a young and strong-willed woman, steps into his life as muse and lover, his carefully tailored existence is disrupted. Interestingly, they met at Victoria Hotel, where Alma the ever clumsy waitress manages to get Woodcock's order right –prompting him to ask her out to dinner. Talk, fashion measurements and sensual engagement follow in that wake.
Watch the trailer of 'Phantom Thread'
While the two individuals central to the story are portrayed as strong-willed they are not out to do battle with each other. Alma who speaks with a German tilt to her diction has a history that is all too shrouded in mystery. We may not really know where she came from but she is so personable that it doesn't matter much. She keeps Woodcock, a man of diligent routine and insufferable habits, off track.
Every aspect of the movie is micro-managed so beautifully that it comes across as an exquisite tapestry of unfettered, underlying emotion. Anderson's visual style defined by breath-taking lighting by Michael Bauman, make the visuals look iridescent. And the pace is very much happening. Jonny Greenwood's score that veers into the classical, shifts deliberately as the passions flare up – taking us along on that swell of emotion. As an audience, you get tightly drawn to what's happening between the two.
But this is not a film meant to go the conventional way. The resolution is not forthcoming and the confrontations add to the complexities of the charged relationship at the centre of it all. The musical compositions are mostly elevating, the performances from all three are superlative. Day-Lewis, Krieps and Lesley Manville, impeccably don the character asked of them.

In 1993, over twenty years ago now, Jean-Paul Philippe created a sculpture among the Crete senesi in Leonida, Asciano to convey the idea of a home as "site transitoire", place of passage.
A window, a chair, a desk: that is how the French artist, born in 1944, defined his home in Siena.
In an effort to represent the three basic positions of human existence in space (people either sit, stand, or lie down), Philippe placed his stones and immediately realized "they defined in light and space the borders of a house, a residence with no walls and with an invisible threshold. Its roof was the sky."
He created a permanent and temporary sculpture at the same time, an installation that lives in constant dialog with the nature surrounding it. After all, as Frank Lloyd Wright once said,
No house should ever be on a hill or on anything. It should be of the hill. Belonging to it. Hill and house should live together each the happier for the other.

Trump Was 'Pandering to Racist Yahoos': Conservative Writer Explains Why He Changed His Mind and Now Supports NFL Protests
September 10, 2018 in Blogs
Max Boot, a conservative writer and frequent critic of President Donald Trump, revealed Monday that he's changed his mind on one of the president's pet issues: NFL players protesting during the national anthem.
It wasn't Trump's power of persuasion that changed Boot's mind — it was the repulsiveness of the president's attacks, particularly on Colin Kaepernick, one of the most prominent of the protesting players, that made him turn against Trump's view.
In a new Washington Post column on Monday, Boot explained that he originally opposed the protests.
"I argued that Kaepernick's protests were disrespectful to all the soldiers who defended American freedom — and they ignored the fact that, although America remained racist and imperfect, 'it has made tremendous progress during its history,'" he wrote.
But as Trump continued his attacks on Kaepernick and his allies, Boot said, "my sympathies swung in their direction."
"The issue is no longer whether it's appropriate to protest 'The Star-Spangled Banner,'" he wrote. "The issue now is whether a demagogue will succeed in stifling protests and pandering to racist yahoos."
Boot pointed out that Trump's opposition to the NFL protests is not his only instance of opposing dissent. He attacks the media and other protesters any chance he gets, and he clearly has an affinity for authoritarian rulers in other countries.
"Protests are the very essence of America!" said Boot. "It is a country founded in protest. (Remember the Boston Tea Party?) Protests, such as those in favor of labor rights, women's suffrage, civil rights and gay rights, helped to make America as great as it is."
He added: "That the president doesn't understand that protest is as American as watching football on fall Sundays is far more disturbing than anything that any NFL player could possibly do during the anthem."
Those who support Kaepernick's protest in substance and not just in principle would hope that conservatives like Boot could recognize that racism and oppression are as much a part of American history as opposition to these forces is. But the pushback Trump receives from conservatives like Boot, and those who might otherwise be …read more

Filing an assumed name is filing a public notice. It is not a copyright, trademark or incorporated right of ownership. Duplicating a business name is discouraged, but the County Clerk's Office cannot prevent it.

Note: The County Clerk staff does fill out any forms, and does not provide legal advice or opinions. You may obtain more information about assumed names from the Texas Business and Commerce Code.

There is a $5.00 charge for this service and the signer must be present with proof of identity and age using documents approved by state law. These may include, a driver's license or state issued identification card, or an approved document issued by Texas or another state, the United States, or a foreign government (i.e., passport, visa, military identification, etc.).

The state of my philosophy and my blog at this point.
It will be mostly arguments all designed to drive this thesis home.
(I am sorry to all and sundry for the poor state of this page for such a long time now.)
Here's the theory, in this, the latest one, I was trying to write a book and got nowhere near it, but it is a long blog, 26,000 words, 50 pages. A pamphlet and it is sort of a manifesto, maybe. I want to send it to all the universities of the world, like Mohammed 's challenge to the world's leaders.
It still has this idea at its core:
AST – I haven't stolen "Murphy's Law of Nature," or "proactive aggression," or half-stolen "managed aggression" yet, AST is my brand- is a system whereby we create aggression through social pressure, threat, control, and abuse, and disallow the free "reactive aggression" that used to put a stop to it, thereby storing our aggression for use when the group or the leader determines it should be used. It's the creation, capture, storage, and management of aggression, proactively. Ideologies that project aggression and violence as natural and innate, like religion and EP, seek to bury this function, to protect it.
The purpose, I am not yet clear about, but the effect seems to be the recurring nightmare of conflict and war.
With this definition, we might make a dent in war, is my idea. I think it's a thing explains the see-saw of war and détente, war's apparent inevitability, which is there because we know we're always busy creating the anger for it.
I don't know what else I can say. It doesn't matter what direction you push; pushes all go one direction. Stop pushing.
Aug. 26th., 2020
Update, early spring on the west coast of Canada, 2020:
Narrator: we did not "get through it." I'm alone now, and not having a great time personally, but the idea moves on.
March 9th., 2020.
Update, early spring on the west coast of Canada, 2017:
I've fallen on hard times in these last few years, and all that bragging below about my family has blown up in my face. We're all in a terrible state right now for reasons that we are not in agreement about, and I'm not going to stoop to telling a bunch of strangers my "side" of this fight. I hope in some few years I can write here that we got through it, but presently I am not with them, so my entire life and philosophy are not looking good. Not that many were listening to me anyway.
The stuff from 2014 and 2015 is for parents, new parents, it says, "don't punish, in any way, at all," citing damage and hard feelings as unwanted consequences. This year's stuff says, "uh, no, the damage and hard feelings are in fact the unconscious but wanted consequences," and so re-defines the problem of punishment. I still don't advocate for the punishment of children, I've just come to understand it's not a rational, debating sort of a thing. If those are still unwanted consequences in your conscious mind, then read on, it's all still true, as far as I can see.
Late in 2015 I found biology, and now I am no longer a wannabe parenting expert. Now I am a wannabe evolutionary psychology theorist. It's an upgrade in content, but it's different. Parents argue, vehemently. Biologists just ignore you! To be fair, though, I'm not in that field, I mean not just me, my theory isn't all biology, and maybe it's not even a hybrid with psychology. I like to think of AST, antisocialization theory, as something that fills the spaces between the two, or something that connects several disciplines. It's not a full definition, but I think I haven't quite got the final wording yet, so here's maybe the thing unsaid about it to date in my blogs.
AST, antisocialization theory is the idea that the primary evolved function of the punishment of children and/or abuse is not that we learn our conscious, human technical lessons, but that we are antisocialized generally, creating ourselves as a more violent and warlike creature than we might be. The mechanism of this function will be epigenetic, and not so much about the presence of gene traits in an external environment, as that we create adverse environments for our children and so operate a suite of epigenetic levers ourselves, almost consciously, with our disciplinary tactics. The function is subject to a social meme about it, that's why 'almost conscious.'
April 30, 2017
This blog concerns the ubiquitous practice of punishment in our societies, mostly in terms of child-rearing, although it will include some talk of adult punishment, the criminal justice system and prison.
Full disclosure – I am a tradesman, I am no sort of professional in the psychology, criminal justice, or social work fields. This is a hobby for me, or rather an interest somewhere on the spectrum between a hobby and an obsession.
I have pretty much given up the dream I had of selling a book of my thoughts on this narrow subject – punishment, punishment of children as a source of much harm in the world – having found this concept to be singularly unpopular through this and other blogging adventures, as well as through many interactions with friends and family in my personal life. Many of those conversations were fairly traumatic. This is a very difficult topic, fraught with strong emotion.
I am over 50 years old, with a beautiful wife as well as two beautiful daughters, who as of this date, September 21st., 2014, are both in their late teens. My daughters were raised without any sort of punishment whatsoever, and I'm happy to say they have turned out to be brilliant, moral, and sober young women. They have normal, teen ways of being in terms of shopping, anything that can happen on their smartphones, and in some sloth and messiness, but that is the worst of it. We saw no teen rebellion.
I would like to say, for any readers, as well as for all those in my own life who have felt hurt by my inquiry into and my opinions on this subject, punishment in child-rearing, that I don't hold blame against any parents, that I feel it is a system that I'm opposing. Any parents who feel hurt when they read or hear my opposition to the most commonly held practices of child-rearing may hopefully see that when I appear to side with their children and against them, that I also take the side of children in every generation, that I side with the children that they once were, as well as with the children that their own parents and grandparents once were.
It's the system. It's not personal.
Enjoy, brave reader! And thank you for visiting.

- Internal (stand-alone) mode: no other equipment is required to set the wall washer internally to generate spectacular color-changing effects, including flashing, fading, static colors and seven changing colors.
- DMX mode: an external DMX controller or software is required with thousands of possible effects and colors.
- Daisy chain: several washers can be linked together to synchronize in either DMX or Stand-Alone mode.

I'm kinda surprised how many black teas I run across that end up being from Assam. Case in point — Shasta Loose Leaf Tea's Borengajuli. There's a unique process behind this tea that's worth reading up on that deals with natural cloning. Pretty interesting stuff!
The resulting brew from this tea is a supremely malty blend with an intense prune flavor — almost like jam. If you're not one for having black teas straight up, a splash of milk or cream will calm that astringency. Overall, this is a seriously good black tea. Give it a try!

In an effort to re-invigorate this blog, I vow to blog at least once a week — even about the most random things — because isn't that what blogging is all about?
Today's topic: GLEE. Yup, that new show that aired right after American Idol. Of course I didn't catch it when it aired, just as I just finished watching the AI finale (even if I already knew that Kris won) — the DVR is my best friend. But in case you didn't get to record it, give it a go on Hulu. If you like musicals and stuff set in high school like I do, then this just might be the show for you. It's not so much "High School Musical" really — because it's much more creative than that. Just think the show brought new life to Journey's Don't Stop Believing and a new take on Amy Winehouse's Rehab.
There's a cute guy and a cute girl and a host of other high-school movie/TV show stereotypes — and they CAN SING! The lead actor is very likable in a Simon Baker (Mentalist fame) way — did I just say that because he reminds me of Simon Baker? Also, it's got Jane Lynch — and I believe anything she's in is pretty funny (Role Models, 40 y.o. Virgin etc.)
There's so much potential in this show. The only bad part is that we've gotta wait till fall to watch another episode.
