| What's cooking: Flapjacks, book jackets
Cost for the all-you-can-eat meal is $6 adults, $3 kids. Serving is from 8 a.m. to noon Feb. 16 at Walker Church, 3104 16th Av. S. (one block south of Lake St. and one block east of Bloomington Av. S.), Minneapolis. For more info, go to www.prisonactivist.org/wpbp. Thin Mint alert The Internet knows all. It knows, for instance, that Twin Cities residents are the second most frequent searchers for information on how to find Girl Scout cookies, topped by Omaha (which, after all, is only a warmer Twin Cities). And get this: Residents of the region bounded by Rochester and Austin, Minn., and Mason City, Iowa, are fifth in the nation when it comes to being in the hunt for Do-si-dos. The thing is, you can't buy the cookies online. However, a search at www.girlscoutcookies.org/ lets you type in your ZIP code to find the nearest Girl Scout council that will then help you place an order.
The Futureheads vs The Maccabees, part two
He was in control, he was like the leader wasn't he – without being a tosser about it, he was like ‘if you want to do something it's gotta come through me'. Or ‘you've got an idea for a song, let's hear it – no, I'm not gonna start mic'ing that one yet ‘cause it hasn't got a big hook'.
BH: They were awesome 12-, 13-hour days and then he'd bugger off to Greece at the weekend to play a trance festival or play bass with The Orb in front of 30,000 people. And we'd be on the beach eating sandwiches…
(laughter)
J: But you wouldn't pick what vocals were used would you, he'd pick them. That's quite important…
BH: He can hear it from a different perspective to me – listening back to your voice it's not nice. You kind of hate it, all the little habits and inflections you don't want them to be in there, but actually those are the things that give you the magic.

Coming Soon: SR to Release E-mail Exchanges ... (Not so fast...)
That's exactly why the CDA Press will never break stories like these. They will never invest in giving their reporters the support and resources to do investigative stories. But they'll pick yours up on the AP, and you can take that to the bank. (DFO: Bingo) *Editor Steve Smith told me a few minutes ago that our pursuit of the e-mails between Prosecutor Bill Douglas and Marina Kalani has cost the newspaper about $20,000 to date -- and we'll probably spend that much in the next coupla weeks pursuing the latest e-mail scandal in the prosecutor's office. *Bayview Herb called to say his Internet access is down, too. Has the Kootenai County commissioners office ordered Time Warner to quit providing access to Huckleberries Online? Just kidding. I think. *Huckleberries hears ...
How to Build A Near Fail-Safe Accounting System to Reduce Costs and ...
The Holy Grail of accounting systems is one that "just works," every time and without fail, with great efficiency and small hardware requirements. The system must have significant reliability, and procedures and processes should cross validate on a constant, ongoing basis. This is our quest and can be our accomplishment.
Constructing a near fail-safe accounting system is like putting together a jigsaw puzzle; all pieces must be present and carefully placed in order to create the big picture. With accounting systems, one has to take all of the following pieces into consideration: software capabilities, hardware capabilities, training and internal procedures, support and strategic planning; AND these components must all fit and work together to create an efficient, reliable program that will take your firm's productivity to the next level.
Bagan mark too good to miss
One of his principal rivals for the Arkle, the ante post favourite Noland, is the main attraction at Sandown Park today. He runs in the Durkan Group Novice Chase. After a smooth and very convincing win first time out over fences at Folkestone in January, he has scared off a lot of his potential opposition and faces just four rivals. Trainer Paul Nicholls, who makes no bones about Noland being one of his best chances at the Festival, picked Sandown ahead of Kempton tomorrow because he is keen to give him experience of jumping fences on an undulating track. www.telegraph.co.uk/armytage Have your say .
Antidepressants Hardly Help
What makes this one so important the results were front-page news across the U.K. on Tuesday is that the researchers were able to track down comprehensive unpublished trial results from the drug makers themselves before the drugs were authorized for sale in the U.S., and include them in their review of the literature. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) must receive records of all relevant pharmaceutical-company trials, both published and unpublished, before it will approve a drug. Under the Freedom of Information Act, the researchers writing in PLoS Medicine were recently able to obtain those FDA records of industry-sponsored clinical trials. They yield data, they believe, that lets them avoid a bias that often plagues reviews of previous research: the tendency for conclusive positive results to be published, sometimes more than once, and thus over-represented, while mediocre results can be ignored or even swept under the rug.
