I hate most of this section, really weak writing on the whole. I had to stop myself from committing a fullscale massacre against it. And it hasn't been read by anyone, so typos etc are all mine.
I'm estimating 2 more parts.

My sister, brother and I all got a surprise $100 from the uni today. Apparently the new enterprise agreement has been signed and everyone on the payroll got a bonus $100. I'll use it to get Gilmore Girls season 2 dvds.

Interesting...looks like from next week we'll be ahead of the US on Stargate when we see Gemini (though I understand the UK has seen it).

Poor puppy

Police dog fatally stabbed on the job

The New South Wales Government has condemned the stabbing of a police dog as a cowardly and despicable act.

It is the first time in the state's history a police dog has been killed by an offender.

The three-year-old German Shepherd called "Titan" was with his handler when he was stabbed by a man after a siege in Sydney's west.

Police Minister John Watkins says it is a very painful loss for the officers at the dog squad.

"There will be some very distressed officers at the dog squad today with very good reason," he said.

"They've lost a brave and noble ally, they form a very close bond with their handler, it's not like other police dogs and that was certainly shown last night where the dog placed himself between an armed offender and his police handler."

The man involved in the siege is expected to be charged later today.

Titan was actually on the news just last night as part of a promotion of the dog squad patroling schools to reduce vandalism.
Dad knew a number in the dog squad when he was in the police and often talked about how close the dogs and handlers are, and how lovely (and sometimes funny) the dogs are.
