Samsung launches 3D video on demand for Internet TV range
Chris Jager (PC &Tech Authority)
June 3, 2011
Samsung extends support to its 3D TV range with dedicated app, featuring 3D movie trailers, music videos, children's classics and documentaries
The main issue facing 3D TV has always been a lack of content; especially if you don't own a 3D Blu Ray player. Samsung is looking to rectify this problem with the launch of a free 3D Video-On-Demand (VOD) service.
From 30 June 2011, the 3D VOD service will be available on selected 2011 Samsung Smart TVs in Australia. To access the free content, owners need to download the 'Explore 3D' application available on Samsung Apps.
"The launch of this free 3D VOD service adds to the variety of content already available and strengthens our commitment to Australian consumers in delivering the very best immersive entertainment experience," said Brad Wright, National Sales and Product Marketing AV Manager for Samsung Electronics Australia.

Under the chiropractic guidance of Dr. Kim Reddick, Complete Wellness Center's Licensed Massage Therapist Sharon Guest employs her extensive massage education and experience to tenderize tissues and melt muscular stress and pain. A one-hour raindrop session steeps backs and feet in a blend of seven essential oils and swathes clients with steamy hot towels before custom-tailored kneads and ancient sorcery vaporize muscular tension and inflammation. Alternatively, the long and flowing strokes of a Swedish massage follow a classic rubdown recipe. The soothing pressure and trigger-point pokes of a deep-tissue rubdown allow the therapist to dive into aching muscles to access pain, injuries, and the Cracker Jack prize that the stork hides in all of us. Like bullies in a middle-school lunchroom, the sports massage targets the weakest tissues, as the therapist douses muscles with moist heat and essential oil to pilfer tension, spasms, cramping, and lunch money.
The instructors at Rumba Fitness pair Zumba's Latin-inspired dance steps with international music seven days a week. With a total of 17 classes, they range from no-frills dance-party workouts to Zumba Toning. The latter blends cardio and resistance exercises with lightweight, maraca-shaped hand weights to chisel muscles.
In lieu of weights, Zumba Sentao increases the challenge by incorporating a chair as a kind of dance partner that facilitate squats and never gets fresh like most other chairs. Rumba Fitness also features a kids' lounge, where children four or older can play while their parents dance.
Weight Loss and Exercise in only 1 place that's Curves a 30 minute total Body workout designed for women featuring our amazingly easy and successful 30 Day Cycle Weight Management program around. The most advanced fitness technology in the world Curves Smart, a personal Coaching system & now our Curves circuit with Zumba!
Nestled in the shadows of towering trees, golfers traverse the arboreal alleyways of DeLand Country Club's course across 18 holes of challenging golf. Throughout the course, mature oaks and pines stalk the edges of fairways, flexing their branches ominously and making menacing shadow puppets with their twiggy fingers in an attempt to break the focus of golfers. The subtle slopes of the rolling course place a high premium on golfers' capacity to cleanly strike balls off of uneven surfaces, and greenside bunkers wait to ensnare off-kilter shots. Club-toting twosomes can loop the 18-hole course astride an efficient golf cart, which helps hunt down balls while proffering incisive commentary about the universally strained relationship between carts and caddies.
Renowned golf-course architect Bobby Weed aims to fill his courses with the kind of rich details typically produced only by Mother Nature herself. His 2008 overhaul of The Deltona Club completely transformed the course: today, blowout-style native-sand bunkers bear roughly scalloped edges that call to mind a raw desert landscape, and the elevation rises in craggy steps as the course progresses, giving players a sense of conquering the land itself. The course's resulting beauty, sense of challenge, and secret bonus level snagged the club a spot on Golfweek's list of best Florida courses in 2012.
Jessica, the mastermind behind Goddess Rising Fitness, began her fitness journey after losing her job of 11 years and deciding to try something new. She started Goddess Rising Fitness in 2010, when she rented studio space for an hour a week to teach a sexy chair-dancing class. Today, Jessica and her team of dance-trained instructors lead more than 15 weekly classes, which include high-energy Zumba classes, relaxing yoga, and strength-building "bombshell ballers" classes using stability balls. She offers Zumbatomic classes that get kids ages 4–12 dancing to age-appropriate tunes and working on age-appropriate long division problems. She also leads six-week boot-camp sessions that aim to help guests lose weight and build strength with functional exercises, weekly weigh-ins, and food journals.

BOSTON -- Kobe Bryant often inspires panic. The pure, unadulterated kind where palms sweat and psalms are read. The coach of the Celtics, Doc Rivers, saw the sharp corners of panic setting in as Bryant started to go Wilt Chamberlain in the third quarter.
"We were up, I think, 12 or 10 when he was making that run, and we had to use a timeout to settle our guys down," said Rivers, " ... you could see [the Celtics players] wanted to change the defense, they wanted to start trapping [Bryant], and I just kept telling them, 'It's only two points each time he scores. It's not 10 ... ' But it makes you question your defense, because he was terrific."
Rivers knew what his players didn't. Bryant was hurting them but he was the only one. It was five Celtics against one Laker, and as good as that Laker was, Rivers will take those odds every time.
The Lakers' supporting cast was mushy and then eventually invisible, and these words from Paul Pierce are among the most damning one professional can say about another. If I were a non-Bryant Laker, I would pin them in my locker and look at them every day as a form of motivation.
"Kobe is the one guy that you probably can't stop in this league," Pierce said, "but we feel like with these other guys we can slow them down and almost shut them down, and we'll give ourselves a great chance at winning."
Ken Berger |
Pierce fuels Celtics with 27 points Recap: Celtics 92, Lakers 86 |
Schedule and Results |
Game 1: Lakers 102, Celtics 89 Game 2: Celtics 103, Lakers 94 Game 3: Lakers 91, Celtics 84 Game 4: Celtics 96, Lakers 89 Game 5: Celtics 92, Lakers 86 Game 6: 9 p.m. ET - Tuesday, June 15 (L.A.) Game 7: 9 p.m. ET - Thursday, June 17 (L.A.) |
These other guys. The Lakers' supporting cast doesn't even have names in the eyes of Pierce. They're just dudes. Kobe and The Other Guys.
Pierce can say these things because he's right. Bryant scored a game-high 38 points in Game 5 while the four other Lakers starters had 34 points combined. The entire Lakers non-Kobe team had 48 points. Bryant had 19 points in the third quarter alone.
So here we are again, with Bryant spilling blood while his teammates watch with helpless impotence.
Bryant didn't morph into a selfish jerk this time. There have been plenty of those games, but this wasn't one of them. This was more about Bryant's teammates. Bryant looked around and saw massive Lakers shrinkage and knowing he was the only Laker on the floor with a beating heart, he took control.
He had no choice.
Tough shot after tough shot fell for Bryant. Some of the Celtics players looked in awe. Ray Allen once just shook his head after Bryant made some twisting, deep falling jumper with Allen in his face.
"I feel like if Ray didn't [play] for us defensively, Kobe scores 50," Glen Davis said.
But they'll take that. Again, Bryant is still only one man.
Are the Lakers done? Is this series over? Maybe not. The Lakers have Bryant, after all. He's not getting much help, but he's still the closest thing the NBA has to Michael Jordan -- and that makes Bryant dangerous.
If Kobe Bryant's teammates want to win another title, they're going to have to do more of the heavy lifting. (Getty Images) |
It's because Bryant's supporting cast in this series is coming up so small, they've regressed into Kwame Brown territory -- and it's not just the players. It would be nice if the Zen Master earned his paycheck, too.
The Celtics are proving to be grit and attitude, while the Lakers are Kobe. And Kobe. And Kobe. And then a few other guys who look like lost puppies.
Bryant was asked what he would say to his teammates before Game 6. His answer was pretty simple.
"Just man up and play," Bryant said. "What the hell is the big deal? I don't see it as a big deal. If I have to say something to them, then we don't deserve to be champions."
The big deal is Bryant needs help. Lots of it, and if he doesn't get it soon this series will be over very quickly.
Maybe sooner than people think.

(Northfield , NJ) - December 16, 2011
The tie is exactly as pictured. I went with a black and white pic this time around. you have to pick a smaller picture if trying to get more than one child in a shot as the picture will get split up in several smaller parts of the tie. This however worked out great as it split the two kids to almost have single portraits although it was the same shot! I was very happy and love the outcome! Fast shipping as promised!
I am pleased.

I used a picture of my almost-two-year-old for a present for my dad. A great idea for someone who's hard to buy for because they just go out and buy everything they want themselves, especially since this is his first grandbaby, and we live a couple thousand miles away. Not as expensive as I'd expected for being able use my own picture, either. I really like that you can preview the item and see what it will look like before finalizing your order. Shipped it straight to Dad, and the whole process (from my ordering the product to its arrival at his house) took less than two weeks. Can't wait to see his reaction when he opens it!
Personalized Tie
(Richmond, VA) - December 14, 2011
I've been ordering photo ties for my dad for years. He LOVES them! They are a little cheesy, but they make him sooo happy. If you put some thought into the photo you use....the background colors, the color and type of clothing being worn, you can get very different looks....even if it is of the same child, dog, whatever. Oh...the preview, what you see on screen before you order, is accurate. Even though not addressed in this review...Personalizaion Mall rocks with the shipping. Over the years, have always received orders quickly!

I purchased this tie for my favorite college professor. I personalized it with one of his favorite phrases that I created with Microsoft Word then converted to a jpeg. When he opened the box he actually had tears in his eyes. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of the tie and speed of delivery. Highly recommended!

The front of the tie is very nice, but the back is white and really stands out (in a bad way). Wouldn't buy again and wouldn't have bought this one if I had know the back was white. Would be a really nice tie if they made the back with the same pattern or at least the same background color.

The engraving on this item did not come out correctly on my original order. I had another one mailed to me and it still was not correct. I just gave up trying to get the engraving correct on this item. I was quite disappointed by this experience. I have ordered numerous personalized gifts from personalizationmall.com and this was the only item they did not get right and i was not satisfied with.

Ordered two of these last year, one for Daddy, one for Grandpa, with a picture of our twins. It was a huge hit. My husband had started a tradition at his work, called "Fun Tie Thursday", where instead of wearing regular boring ties, they are all supposed to wear something unique and different. This one sure is. Lots of men have asked him where he got it. We've sent them here each time. I have been informed that he now expects a new one each year, with an updated photo...so, will be ordering more this Christmas.
(Canada) - October 21, 2011
I ordered two of these ties, one in lighter colors and one in darker colors. While they were both great, the darker colors were more vivid and suiting to this item. My husband just loves wearing these at his work, as the school kids get a kick out of seeing his children on his tie and reminding them that they don't lock teachers up in a closet when the school day is completed.

I purchased this tie to wear as I represent a new Christian School that will be starting in the Dallas, PA area. I used our logo instead of a picture and the tie is absolutely awesome! I did check other online vendors for picture ties, but they would not allow me to see the final product with my logo inserted. Great work PersonalizationMall.com!

it kept telling me the picture was no good and what the measurements had to be to work. and i'd resize it to those measurements and it still wouldn't work! i almost gave up but then a friend somehow figured it out for me. once that was done, it ended up coming out great!

We got this tie as a gift for our son. The picture was of his wife and 4 daughters. He absolutely loved it. We were so very impressed by the sharpness of the photo transfer, and of the quality of the fabric itself and the cut of the tie. I highly reccommend this to anyone wanting a unique gift!

I ordered this originally for my dad for Fathers Day and used a picture of my daughter (his first grandchild) and he LOVED it. So did my grandfather! So per his request I ordered another one!
Great gift! Great price!

I bought this tie as a Father's Day gift last year for my husband from our newborn daughter, with her picture on it.
I bought another one this year.
It's well made and such a great momento. He adores the gift and is excited to wear it to the office. He gets great compliments on it and is able to show off our little girl too! Highly recommend.
I'll probably buy it again next year - it's becomming a tradition!

I've used these ties for Father's day the past two years. This year, I used a picture of an ultrasound as a tie, which looks like abstract art for the unassuming eye. Each design/purchase was easy to do. My favorite feature of the page is the simulated finished product you get to review before final purchase. Delivery is very reasonable. I'm sure I'll order it again!
Excellent Quality

Great gift idea.
(Salinas, CA) - June 21, 2011
I ordered the collage tie for Father's Day. The tie was a huge hit. My husband got tons of compliments and most wanted to know where they could get one. The website was super easy to use. I was concerned about the photo I wanted to use but the cropping feature worked great. I loved that you showed me the finished product before ordering! Also, super fast service. I think I got my order in less that 5 days.
Great Gift Idea
(La Mesa , CA) - June 18, 2011
I ordered this tie as a gift for fathers day and was so glad I did upon receiving it. This is a wonderful product and the quality of the image and the material of the tie was wonderful. I will definitely be thinking of other occasions when I may give this as a gift.
A timeless treasure
(Fort Stockton, TX) - June 18, 2011
I purchased this for my boss using a picture of his 6 month old son. The son will grow and change but the tie will forever capture the moment he thought was special enough to take for a photo. The tie looks exactly like the picture I uploaded. Very pleased.

Love the tie and can't wait to give it to my dad for Father's Day with his grandson's picture on it. Such a cute idea. Wish the tie material itself was of a better quality, but still a nice item.
My Ties!
(Lexington, SC) - June 13, 2011
LOVE the ties I just ordered for Father's Day for my dad, my husband and my father in law - It is a picture of my three daughters from Easter and the colors are so vivid - The quality of the fabric is excellent and I know they are going to enjoy wearing them this summer - The price is right and the service consistent - This is the 5th order I have placed with Personalization.com and each has delivered in a timely manner with email alerts to me during the process. I am VERY pleased with this site and will definitely continue to order for friends and family (who are scattered) in the future. Who doesn't love something with their name or initials on it??? :)
Love this!
(Texarkana, TX) - June 11, 2011
It has now become a tradition to get a tie for my husband and father-in-law for father's day. They proudly where their ties to church on father's day Sunday and everyone admires them. It is a wonderful Father's day gift. We love it!
Awesome bragging gift!
(Ramona, CA) - June 8, 2011
Love this! I am sure my dad ( her grandpa) will love it as well! Very nice quality!
Love it!
(Glendale, AZ) - May 28, 2011
The only thing I would change would be to have a darker color on the back of the tie. (It is white.) Other than that, I love the ties!

Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith future Saints cap victims?

10:32 AM ET 12.22 | Will Smith and Jonathan Vilma prevailed in their defiant battle against the NFL's bounty suspensions. But they'll face an even tougher adversary in the offseason:The salary cap. The two longtime leaders of the New Orleans Saints defense loom as the most likely veterans to be released as the Saints face the daunting task of slicing millions of dollars off their cap. Unless the former Pro Bowlers agree to substantial pay cuts, their remarkable runs with the Saints likely will come to an end. The Saints are projected to be around $16 million above the salary cap heading into 2013 - and that's even with pending free agents like Sedrick Ellis and Jermon Bushrod coming off the books.

Selected by the Pennsylvania School Librarians Association as one of the PSLA YA Top Forty Fiction Titles 2003 The prospect of spending summer vacation sailing in the Grenadines with his cousin Matt and his older sister Carol wasnt an appealing one for Regan. His cousin and sister have little time for him, and the three young people never get along. Regan seems to lose every argument. Then disaster strikes - the kids find themselves adrift on a dinghy with no food and little water, facing a furious tropical storm and voracious sharks.

Blagojevich attorney Sheldon Sorosky says Blago free to talk
Ernie Souchak, Editor-in-Chief
A proven, reliable source informs IP2P that Sheldon Sorosky, Rod Blagojevich's attorney, has confirmed what we've long suspected: Blago's silence has been bought. The payoff is ahead.
Here's how it stacks up.
Rod Blagojevich is free to talk publicly about any, and all, of the phone conversations recorded by federal agents. And, there's no protective judicial order restricting him from doing so.
When asked why his client would pretend he's prohibited from talking about the conversations, Sheldon had no clear explanation.
Sheldon was then asked: If the contents of the tapes prove Blago is innocent, why has Blago remained silent? Sheldon has no clear explanation.
When asked if Rod Blagojevich's pending appeal would be based on the claim that the defense could not play the tapes, Sheldon said that the appeal would focus on specific tapes.
Oh, okay.
Then, Sheldon was asked – why, if those specific conversations would prove Blago innocent, hasn't Blago identified those with whom he had those conversation, and what those conversations were about, Sheldon acknowledged that nothing restricts Blago from revealing that information.
Oh, okay, nothing stops Blago from talking. We get that.
Asked why Blago hadn't revealed what's on the tapes, Sheldon had no clear explanation. (You see a pattern here?)
Here's what we at IP2P suggest: Sheldon should just put Blago's recollection of those conversations in his appellate brief due May 30, 2013.
Absolutely nothing prevents him from doing that.
Nothing, that is, unless there's a deal in place that assures that the public never knows what's on those tapes, in exchange for a significant reduction in Blago's jail time.
In short, we believe Blago's silence has been bought.
It is the Chicago Way. Right?
The underlying question is this: Besides getting himself an early Out-of-Jail Card, who is being protected by Blago's silence?
Stunning development in Chicagogate: Publisher of Blagojevich book "Golden" confesses
<< Breaking News >>
Ernie Souchak, Editor-in-Chief
In a stunning development, Chicago Review Press, publisher of "Golden: How Rod Blagojevich Talked Himself out of the Governor's Office and into Prison," confessed to failing to fact-check the book.
Cynthia Sherry of Chicago Review Press recently went on the record stating that the publisher "trusts their authors," and that she "trusted the Chicago Tribune and their reporters so there was no need for her to fact-check the book."
Does that mean Chicago Review Press does not fact-check any of the books they publish?
Ms. Sherry also acknowledged that she didn't confirm that John Chase and Jeff Coen actually had access to the wiretap recordings they claim in the book.
Chicago Review Press' trust of the Tribune, Chase, and Coen is even more remarkable when you consider that Ms. Sherry, and others at Chicago Review Press, were provided verifiable information that should have insured that they take all precautions and thoroughly vet the claims Chase and Coen made.
That is, unless fact-checking the book didn't fit the publisher's agenda.
Did Chicago Review Press betray our trust?
What really should have Chicagoans scratching their heads is this: The Blagojevich legal team has remained silent as Chase and Coen tell the world there's nothing on the tapes that vindicate Blagojevich, and that the tapes prove his guilt.
Keep in mind, these are tapes that Blago and his lawyers claim they can't talk about. And, these are tapes that Chase and Coen could not have obtained legally, unless they recieved acsess from the feds. And the feds have denied giving them that access.
So, how is Blagojevich helped by silence?
Why are lawyers remaining silent?
Remember, the appeal they filed is (suppose to be) for the right to a new trial. Not for freedom.
No comment from Blagojevich attorney Sheldon Sorosky has been yet offered. Only the sound of crickets.
Sheldon where are you? Why aren't you representing your client, Rod Blagojevich?
Much more to come........
Robert Blagojevich dodged going to prison
Hugo Floriani, Investigative Reporter
Jesse Jackson Jr. was not the only one saved when John Chase called the Blagojevich camp and warned them that the feds were listening.
Remember, it was Robert Blagojevich that would have been caught on surveillance tapes, meeting with Jackson's money man, Raguveer Nayak. Chase not only saved Jesse Jackson, Jr. from prison, he also saved Robert Blagojevich.
Hold that thought. We'll come back to it later.
November 21, 2012: Within hours of Jesse Jr's resignation from Congress, Robert Blagojevich expressed his disappointment. He felt he likely would never be able to clear his own name.
Why is that? you ask.
Well, R. Blagojevich assumed there'd be no ethics committee investigation of Jesse Jackson Jr's attempt to buy the U.S. Senate seat his brother, then Governor Rod Blagojevich, was selling.
Robert was right. The DC pols didn't want to investigate that attempted transaction.
However, there's nothing to stop Robert Blagojevich from making his case to the public.
That is, if Robert truly believes his name could be cleared.
Robert Blagojevich has all the FBI wiretap tapes that brother Rod and his attorneys have.
Robert has listened to all the government's wiretaps, and, as of today, he hasn't expressed any disagreement with Chase and Coen's assertion that the contents of the tapes show his brother is guilty.
Furthermore, Robert, Rod, and their respective attorneys have remained silent, while Chicago Tribune reporters Chase and Coen assert that the Blagojevich defense was built on a house of lies.
Remember, the entire Blagojevich entourage was screaming that "the tapes would set them free," if only everyone could hear them.
In their book "Golden," Chase and Coen claim they listened to all the wiretap tapes, and that there is nothing there that suggest Rod or Robert are innocent of attempting to sell a U.S. Senate seat.
So, in a nutshell:
In the past.
The Blagojevich brothers and their attorney's repeatedly professed that proof of their innocence is captured on the government's tapes. And that, if the public were allowed to hear the tapes, the brothers would be found innocent.
Present day.
(1) John Chase and Jeff Coen claim that the Blago's and their attorney's were lying.
(2) The Blago brothers and their attorneys are not disputing Chase and Coen's claims.
The Blago's and their attorney's lied about what's on the tapes.
So, what will the Brothers and their attorney's want you to believe next? (coming soon)
(1) What was captured on roughly 400 hours of recorded Blago wiretap conversations?
(2) Why can't we hear them?
(3) Why are the Blagojevich's and the U.S. Attorney's Office hiding behind a phony protective order?
Developing story......

FoodCalc, Inc. announced today the launch of EveryoneEat!TM, an Android and iPhone app that empowers the 150 Million Americans living with chronic diseases, and the millions more at risk, to make highly-informed meal decisions at 180,000 restaurant locations nationwide.
According to the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS), nearly half of Americans today are living with a nutrition-related chronic disease like Heart Disease, Diabetes, Kidney Disease and countless other conditions. Per the National Restaurant Association, 47 percent of all dining is done in restaurants, meaning that those with chronic diseases are spending upwards of $280 billion annually dining out without the benefit of proper nutrition guidance.
Unfortunately, even when available, nutrition information is not provided to diners in the context of their specific health conditions, necessitating people to perform sophisticated calculations to determine if a dish is appropriate for their dietary restrictions. EveryoneEat! addresses this issue by offering easy-to-attain nutritional guidance for specific dietary guidelines based on an individual's personal health profile and disease stages.
After downloading the app, users simply enter basic information (age, gender, height, weight, activity level), and their chronic health conditions and special dietary restrictions. This information is then used by FoodCalc to calculate a dietary guideline determined in collaboration with major health associations including, the American Diabetes Association, the National Kidney Foundation, the National Osteoporosis Foundation, the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, and many others. This analysis is instantly performed, and users can immediately search for dishes at restaurants by type of cuisine or restaurant name.
Dishes are sorted based on how closely they match the user's dietary needs, providing what FoodCalc terms "Nutrition Insights", a comprehensive and easy-to-understand overview of the dish at a nutrient level, specifically attuned to one's health condition. If a nutrient level is inappropriate (i.e., too many carbs, too much sodium, phosphorus, etc.), the user will be given specific context for how the dish compares to an appropriate meal for their health condition.
"Today, there are dozens of 'nutrition' apps providing basic nutrition facts or generic health 'scores' for hundreds of restaurant chains. But for Americans with special dietary restrictions, it's unfortunately left to them to decipher the nutrition facts provided, in order to understand whether a dish is appropriate for the needs mandated by their specific condition," said Ken Marshall, CEO at FoodCalc. "What we recognize is that no matter how simple or complicated a dietary restriction, people need to easily answer the basic question, 'does this dish meet my dietary guidelines?', and if not, 'what's off and by how much?' EveryoneEat! addresses this need head on."
In addition to nutrition guidance, the app allows users to "Nominate" their favorite local restaurants, which FoodCalc will then contact directly to encourage them to participate. Users can also connect with Registered Dietitians via the app (their own or one in FoodCalc's network) for much deeper personalization of dietary guidance.
"Web, mobile and social apps like EveryoneEat! are the future of dietetics," said Registered Dietitian Meri Raffetto, author of Glycemic Index for Dummies and co-author of Restaurant Calorie Counter for Dummies. "To guide their journey of nutrition transformation, our patients and clients need us to provide guidance to them wherever they eat, and the level of personalization we are able to provide people through this app is absolutely unprecedented. Going forward, this type of solution is going to be our primary driver of patient and client coaching."
Visit http://www.foodcalc.com/everyoneeat to download the EveryoneEat! app.
About FoodCalc, Inc.
FoodCalc's mission is to transform the dietary well being of America by providing nutrition-related apps and services to consumers, health-related technology companies, healthcare providers and foodservice businesses.

Ohio ranks 4th in the nation for the most wind and hail claims, according to State Farm insurance company.
"Wind and hail storms remain some of the most frequent and severe causes of property damage," said the insurance company.
State Farm and its policyholders spent $3.9 million in 2012 related to wind and hail damage. The first-ever indoor hail storm was conducted by The Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety Research Center in an "effort to research building products and ways to educate consumers."
The top 10 states with the most wind and/or hail claims include:
* Texas: 47,000
* Illinois: 41,000
* New York: 34,000
* Ohio: 31,000
* Missouri: 25,000
* Tennessee: 24,000
* Indiana: 23,000
* New Jersey: 23,000
* Kentucky: 22,000
* Colorado: 16,000
States such as Ohio and states in the Great Plains are most frequently impacted by hail storms, said the insurance company.
Other parts of the country see more hail than Ohio, specifically the western high Plains to the Frost Range of the Rockies, said Storm Center 7 Chief Meteorologist Jamie Simpson.
Eastern Colorado and Wyoming are the areas with the most occurrences on average each year. However, population density is much lower in those areas. Ohio has a higher population density as well as more property that can be damaged by hail. Ohio has had an increase of large hail in storms the last few years, said Simpson.
According to Simpson, Ohio is actually the part of the country that sees the most straight-line wind damage. This is because the storm systems that develop into wind-damage producers typically originate over the Upper Midwest, including Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin.
The pattern allows the wind to develop and also steers them toward Ohio. As the wind heads toward the Buckeye State they accelerate and speeds increase. Ohio ends up bearing the brunt of the damage from the strongest winds in Ohio and Indiana.
According to State Farm, home and property owners can reduce storm damage by:
* Pulling cars, boats, RVs, lawn and patio furniture into a covered area.
* Considering using impact-resistant roofing when building or remodeling to reduce hail damage to your home.
If you experience hail damage, State Farm recommends you work with your insurance agent or claims adjuster to understand the claims process and how covered repairs will be handled.
Choose a reputable roofing contractor. Ask for a licensed or bonded roofer with certificates of insurance, including liability and workers compensation insurance coverage. Not all jurisdictions require licensing of roofing contractors.
Property owners can "contact their local Better Business Bureau or the National Roofing Contractors Association for assistance in locating a professional contractor in their area," State Farm said.

Happy to see the downloads take-off!
Should hit 'critical mass' soon.
Comment by paul2012 — July 18, 2012 @ 09:01
Very cool, congratulations!
If I may make one complaint: Why NonCommercial only license on the infographic? Seems contrary to all TDF has published so far, and contrary to free-as-in-freedom.
Comment by Mike Linksvayer — July 19, 2012 @ 16:25
I would avoid to mix and match a software license and a license protecting the contents of a document. Creative Commons BY-SA-NC is fairly standard for documents, especially if you want the document to stay free even when translated into another language (which is the reason why I added the CC license).
Comment by italovignoli — July 19, 2012 @ 17:17
Creative Commons BY-SA does this, is used extensively by TDF (see the footer of every https://www.documentfoundation.org page), and doesn't have the non-free NonCommercial only condition.
Comment by Mike Linksvayer — July 19, 2012 @ 17:32
Again, I would avoid to mix and match the website – which is a collaborative work – with the infographic, which is not collaborative (although the data is extracted by others, all the subsequent data manipulation and visualization is done by myself). Personally, I do not see the Non Commercial as non free, especially if we are speaking about documents generated by a single person. I want my work not to be used for commercial purposes, and is my right to decide which license to apply. Being a journalist and an author, I have a fairly strong opinion on the intellectual property of documents. I am happy to share them, but I am not happy if someone steals my intellectual property for a commercial purpose.
Comment by italovignoli — July 19, 2012 @ 18:21
Ok, I understand. However, NC is non-free, see http://freedomdefined.org and http://freedomdefined.org/Licenses/NC though of course you may still wish to use it.
Comment by Mike Linksvayer — July 19, 2012 @ 18:44
I'm happy that LibreOffice is constantly developing. I'm using it and I've started my adventure with OOo from the first stable version! It was long time ago and now I'm very used to it. It's very good that – despite problems – it's still alive, now as LibreOffice. Greetings from Poland!

I think pretty much anytime a team or franchise goes from historically lame to really good their fans will be accused of front runners.
"Why weren't all you guys so vocal when your team wasn't any good?"
"You just asked a question who's answer is actually in the question! Brilliant".The Panthers will be better. But the Falcons were aggressive and got even better. NFC South is Atlanta, New Orleans, Carolina and Tampa is you ask me.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Madtown Badgers:
Utah State Aggies
We've been analyzing the hire of Gary Andersen, who has been confirmed to be in Madison already, over the past 24 hours or so from a Badgers perspective, but what do we know that fans and writers of Utah State couldn't tell us in their own words, right?
So, with that in mind we asked a friend of this site, Matt Sonnenberg, of The Sagebrush Spot to give us his impressions on Gary Andersen and what we should expect and know about him. We covered a number of topics, so let's get right into it.
Here are the thoughts of Sonnenberg in regards to Coach Anderson:
Gary Andersen is a coach who can inspire excitement like I've never seen before. His charisma is off the charts, and he uses it to motivate players and fans to believe in the program and everything they're capable of.
When it comes to coaching, he's always said that nobody will outwork them or be better prepared. I've always felt he's delivered on that promise, as evidenced by his ...

After reading Jane Collins' Willing Change I found I developed a deeper understanding of not only my mindsets and how they affect my decisions but also how they affect the day to day activities and planning within my business. Tom
I really enjoyed your book and the material. It was thought provoking and made me re-evaluate my goals professionally and personally. Given the current stage in life (six years into my career, recently married), it was a great exercise. Peter
I cannot tell you how much help and encouragement I am getting from your book. It couldn't have come at a better time in my life. Regards and thanks, John

When sizing up the opposition at the Class 1A state tournament, Madison High School basketball coach Jaime Cotto is certain his Trojans are battle-tested.
"I think we've got the toughest 1A schedule in the state," said Cotto, whose 20-11 squad takes on the (Lanark) Eastland Cougars (30-3) in a 12:15 p.m. semifinal Friday at Carver Arena in Peoria. "I'd like any 1A team to compare their schedule to ours."
Madison played Missouri state finalist Madison Prep of St. Louis, Memphis University High, Arlington, Tenn., 2A super-sectional qualifier Teutopolis, 3A sectional qualifier Centralia, 3A regional finalist Marquette twice and beat 1A sectional finalist Gibault twice.
Madison and Eastland also were matched up at the 2010 1A state tournament, with Madison winning 75-56 in the third-place game.
"They're awfully athletic and very well coached," Eastland coach Tony Dunlap said. "They play a brutal schedule and they're really, really quick and hard to handle. I don't know if I'm happy to see them again, but it beats not playing so I'm happy to get the opportunity."
Playing a strong schedule helps, but it won't guarantee the Trojans anything once they step onto the court in Peoria.
Especially against a fired up Eastland team that has won 19 straight thanks to high-pressure defense and 6-foot-1 all-state forward Dalton Shaner (17.9 points per game with 37 3-pointers).
"He reminds me of (Cody) Hildebrand of Payson-Seymour," Cotto said, referring to the top scorer on the team the Trojans knocked out Tuesday at the Jacksonville Super-Sectional. "They're very fundamentally strong, they're very smart and they're very disciplined in their man defense."
Madison has a first-team all-state selection in senior guard Marquis Borney. Besides averaging 19 points with 60 3-pointers, Borney is one of the team's best rebounders, passers and defenders.
The Trojans also feature a solid inside player in 6-5, 235-pound junior Deontay Starnes (10 ppg, 10 rebounds per game) and get solid scoring from junior guard Tyvon Powers (8.2 ppg, 34 3-pointers) and 6-3 senior DiJon Bryant (8 ppg).
"I'm concerned about their overall quickness and they're getting 18-20 offensive rebounds a game," Dunlap said. "They just get to the basket and get there so quickly. Their team speed and team quickness are the big concerns of mine."
Cotto hopes Madison's big men, Starnes and Bryant, can take advantage of some potential room to operate inside.
The Eastland Cougars' only losses were 64-47 to unbeaten 2A state qualifier Winnebago, 68-63 to Erie --a team it later smashed 62-41 in the sectional semifinals -- and 62-47 to Hinckley-Big Rock.
Along with Shaner, the top players on a balanced scoring team are 6-4 senior forward Ty Hartman (13.3 ppg), 6-2 senior guard Austin Hansen (9.4 ppg, 47 3-pointers) and 6-3 junior Skylar Paulson (8.8 ppg).
"When we've been at our best over the years we've had a balanced team that all could score and all could defend -- and it's no different this year," Dunlap said.
With just two losing seasons in 19 years at Eastland, Dunlap said his team takes pride in man-to-man defense.
"We want to be accountable for the things we do on the basketball floor, so I don't think there's any better way than matching up and trying to defend the other team the best way possible," Dunlap said.
This will be Madison's 13th state tournament trip and the Trojans won state championships in 1977 and 1981 under former coach Larry Graham. They also finished third in 2010 and fourth in 1980.
Carlyle connection
One of the top players for 2A state finals qualifier St. Joseph-Ogden is junior guard Nate Michael. Michael is the son of former Carlyle High all-state player and University of Illinois standout Tom Michael, now a Senior Associate Athletics Director at Illinois.
Tom Michael was the state tourney MVP of Carlyle's 1989 Class A state championship squad, scoring 28 points and hitting 10 of 12 field goal attempts in the Indians' 65-56 title game win over (Rock Island) Alleman.
He also helped the Fighting Illini to two NCAA Tournament appearances and a 70-49 record. He holds the Illinois all-time record for 3-point field goal percentage, sinking 75-of-152 (49 percent) attempts in 1991-92.
