| Dog owner found guilty
Wednesday morning at Arvada Municipal Court, dog trainers and other witnesses will testify at a sentencing hearing about what makes the most sense for Rolo and his owner. Assistant Presiding Judge Michael Graber has a range of options, including: — Placing Rolo with another family. — Requiring that Rolo continue obedience training. — Requiring Hagan to take part in counseling programs. — Requiring Hagan to provide proof of liability insurance of at least $100,000. — Fining Hagan. But having Rolo destroyed remains one of the options. Arvada prosecutors said Hagan let Rolo run loose on July 1, 2007, and that Rolo bit neighbor Kathy Hardin, who had seen the dog charging, screamed and picked up her 14-month-old baby to protect him.

The fact that many colleges require students to purchase notebooks also drives this trend. While many well-equipped notebooks are available for under $1,000, they often require the purchase of external peripherals such as an external screen or keyboard to make the notebook more comfortable while used in an office, points out Tom Tobul, executive director of marketing for the emerging products business unit at Lenovo Group in Morrisville, N.C.
