The Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice provides you with the practical legal training (PLT) that you need for admission to the legal profession.
You can start QUT's Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice with two units of study left in your undergraduate law degree (subject to Queensland Legal Practitioners Admissions Board (LPAB) requirements which are currently under reivew). From February 2015, neither of these can be priestly units. Contact us to find out more about priestly units.
The electives give you the choice to study one module from criminal, administrative, or family law practice component of our course and another module from wills and estates, planning and environment, employment and industrial relations, or consumer law. In 2015, the LPAB may add banking and finance to this list.
Develop into a successful lawyer equipped with the basic knowledge and practical skills you'll need to meet the challenges of legal practice. Get hands-on experience as part of your course with a 4-week placement in a law office.
Why choose this course?
You'll learn by working on simulated legal problems and tasks - the type of work that lawyers undertake in real world workplaces:
- draft legal documents
- write legal letters
- carry out the steps in basic property, litigation and commercial transactions and proceedings.
Throughout the course you'll build a portfolio of practical know-how – a guide and resource for the real world of legal practice.
Our course is driven and shaped by practising lawyers, many of whom are leaders in their fields. Several of our staff have won teaching awards including a prestigious Australian Learning and Teaching Council Award for Teaching Excellence. Students enjoy the support of staff who have practised law as solicitors or barristers.
We arrange your four-week work placement (unless you are eligible for credit because you work in a legal office in private practice, government, the community sector or in-house).
You'll have access to up-to-date computing and internet access.
Our employment register is also available to assist you in your search for end-of-course employment.
Flexible delivery
We offer full-time practical legal training on-campus and external (online), as well as part-time practical legal training, online. International students may only enrol in full-time courses on campus
The part-time course consists of five attendance days with the remainder of the course online (LPP117 Interaction and some elective choices involve a one-day attendance requirement).
If you're already working in a graduate law position in a private or government law office you may be eligible to enrol in the part-time (in-practice) mode, and you may also receive credit for the work placement unit and LPP117 Interaction. This mode is especially designed for people who are already employed in a law office.
QUT's part-time (general) course is for people who wish to study part-time online but who are not working in law offices.
The part-time course includes five attendance days with the balance of the course online (although some elective choices and LPP117 Interaction involve a one-day attendance or video link session)
Career outcomes
Upon completion of practical legal training, graduates can apply for admission to the Australian legal profession and may become eligible to apply for the restricted 'employee' practising certificate (solicitors). To obtain an unrestricted practising certificate (law firm principal), legal practitioners then complete supervised legal practice (two years) and the Law Society Practice Management Course.
Admitted lawyers who wish to practise as barristers in Queensland then complete a bar practice course to obtain the barrister's practising certificate (barristers).
Professional recognition
The course is designed to comply with the Law Admissions Consultative Council's Competency Standards for entry-level lawyers and is approved by the Queensland Legal Practitioners Admissions Board.

Anne of Green Gables
Share the adventures of Anne Shirley and her "best friend for life," Diana Barry, as they travel from childhood to maturity in this heartwarming adaptation which beautifully captures the highlights of the classic novel. Marilla Cuthbert asks for an orphan boy to help her and her brother take care of Green Gables, but the orphanage sends Anne with an "e" — an independent, red-headed, freckle-faced girl who changes their lives and touches the hearts of all who come to know and love her. Delight in Anne's high-spirited antics all over again as she narrowly escapes Mrs. Blewett's clutches at the orphanage, whacks Gilbert over the head with her slate, saves little Minnie May from her deathbed and, when she has come of age, finally lets Gilbert into her life. In the touching words of Marilla, Anne is "the dearest mistake" that's ever come into her life, and she doesn't know how she could love her more.

Athanasiou advances by the slimmest of margins.
McCollum is the add having seen more previous votes to De Haas to this point.
Quine again, add De Haas or Hudon again.
Starting to feel bad for those voting for Lashoff, think I finally join that crowd after this round although Callahan and Lashoff are a tough choice for me. Just not very high on Lashoff after watching him the past two seasons. Think injuries were the reason last year, but he needs to play better on a night to night basis to move higher up my list to where a lot of people are putting him at least for me. I do think he will wear the C in Grand Rapids this year.
For me, it was a toss up between Lashoff and Callahan, two guys who are fringe prospects, I think, but might have the kind of game that makes them valuable on a 4th line or third pairing.
I went with lashoff
But starting to think Paterson would have been the choice
voted for Quine, then I am voting for Nedomlel next.
I think Nedomlel should be getting a little more love.
Quine once again
Lashoff again.
I'm still trying to get Parkes added. The kid is way ahead of the others.
Quine. Add Bodin
Went with Quine.
Quine. High level skating and playmaking. Here is a guy who is a bit under the radar because he was caught behind Austin Watson until the deadline. This year he will play with Puempel the entire season, and he will center the PP instead of playing on the point....I expect a big year from him.
He will not be playing with Puempel though, the Petes traded him (Puempel) to Kitchener.
Perhaps Quine will be moved later this year, too.
That is a fine top twenty. I think dead-wing prognosticators will be eating crow before too long.
******* Bettman too. Just because...

Max Evans gazed in the bathroom mirror. "Not looking good, chief," he said to his reflection. Hollow cheeks. Bags -- more like a full set of luggage under his eyes. His skin had a transparent, grayish quality. He noticed a zit on his neck. It was actually kind of...comforting. It made him feel young.
Max stepped onto the scale. Three pounds less than yesterday. A wave of panic rushed through him. He lost his balance, fell off the scale, and managed to land on the toilet. He covered his face with his hands. Am I having a midlife crisis at sixteen? he wondered. Why do I feel so weak?
He heard a shrill giggle from downstairs. God -- I've got to get to work, he thought.
"Uh, I'm leaving now," Max called. He cleared his throat and descended the stairs. "To leave, I have to walk through the living room. I am now moving toward the living room."
Max stepped through the doorway. Oh, man. His sister, Isabel, and her boyfriend, Alex Manes, hadn't taken the hint. They were still all over each other. Max tried not to look as he rushed past them, but he still saw more than he wanted to. Lip lockage. Some buttons unbuttoned. Hands everywhere.
It just wasn't something a guy needed to see his sister doing. His little sister. Okay, she was a junior in high school. But still.
Max slammed out the front door and trotted over to his Jeep, relieved to be out of the house. He swung himself into the driver's seat, turned on the ignition, and backed out the driveway.
He made a left, heading toward the center of Roswell, then cranked the radio and put on his shades against the late afternoon sun. The cool air slid past him, blowing his blond hair off his forehead. He started feeling like a guy in a jeep ad. An I'm-the-king-of-the-world-up-here-in-my-Jeep feeling.
It had been a while since he'd felt this good. But things were basically. going his way. Isabel was with a guy Max actually liked, a guy who treated her right. Yeah, Max wished they would find a slightly more private place for their make-out marathons, but he approved of the whole Isabel-Alex thing.
He smiled. Isabel would be furious if she knew what he was thinking right now. She'd say just because he was her brother that didn't mean he had to give the guys she went out with the seal of approval, like they were sides of beef he thought were fit to be hamburger. She'd say it was none of his business.
But it was. Everyone in the group was his business. He was connected to all six of them. And they were connected to him. Sometimes when they all hanging out, their auras would swirl together and create one huge aura filled with colors. Even when they were apart, that feeling of oneness lingered within him. Max didn't think he could feel this good if something was really wrong with one of the others.
Isabel and Alex were certainly happy. Maybe even a little too happy for Max's taste. He was almost scared to think of them getting any happier -- they might break a natural law or something. That took care of two of the six.
Maria DeLuca was doing okay, too, especially considering that she'd almost died on them last week. She'd found a ring that contained one of the Stones of Midnight. It gave her psychic powers -- by merely thinking of someone, she could experience their thoughts and emotions. Unfortunately bounty hunters from Max's home planet were tracking the stolen Stone. They tried to kill Maria, and they probably would have.
But Michael Guerin, Max's best friend, faced the bounty hunters with her and basically saved her. Now the worst thing Michael had to deal with was adjusting to his latest foster home. His new foster parents, the Pascals, had a lot of rules, but they seemed to really care about the kids who lived with them. That had to count for something.
And Liz...Admit it, Max thought. Now you've come to the real reason you're feeling good. Liz Ortecho doesn't hate you anymore.
He had come so close to permanently messing things up with Liz. He'd kissed her and then told her he wanted to be just friends. Then he'd kissed her again and told her he wanted to be just friends again, and then when she decided to go out with another guy, Max had followed her like some kind of lunatic stalker. Not exactly something a friend would do.
So Liz had gone into Max-hating mode. But when Maria got hurt, it took all six of them to get her through -- so they put Max's maddening fickleness aside for the time being. They'd managed to find a way back to, being friends. Just
friends. But friends.
A new song came on the radio. One of those whiny, wailing chick songs about the pain of love. Not what Max wanted to hear right now. Not when he was actually, feeling decent for once. He did a fast button punch to change the station.
A drum solo pounded out. It was loud. Way too loud. Louder than it would be if he were sitting next to one of those huge amps at a concert. Max fumbled, for the volume control and turned, the knob to the left. But the drums got louder. He as if the drumsticks were slamming into his brain. Stabbing through the gray matter.
Max pulled over to the curb and stopped. He snapped the radio off. The drumming stopped. But there were still so many sounds. A car honked as it passed him. Max jerked his head back and gritted his teeth. The honk seemed to pierce delicate eardrum like a needle.
Max shoved his hands against his ears. He tried to keep from screaming. The sound of his own howl of pain would be agony.
He squeezed his eyes shut, leaned down, and pressed his forehead against the steering wheel. His hands weren't blocking out enough of the noise. He could still hear car wheels against the street, a bird chirping in one of the trees, two girls giggling. He could hear electricity pulsing through the power lines over his head. And the leaves of the trees brushing together. And his own blood rushing through his veins. It was too much. He couldn't take it.
Then, it stopped. As if some giant hand had reached down and lowered the cosmic volume control. Max could hear only dim, muffled sounds through his hands. He slowly opened his eyes. He watched a car drive by. He could hardly hear it.
Max moved his hands a few inches away from his ears. He held them poised there, ready to slap them back in place if he needed to. But the sounds were...just normal sounds. Some louder than others, but none getting even close to the pain-inducing level.
What was that? Max thought. He glanced around the street. He spotted a woman a few houses down, working in her garden. She seemed too absorbed in her work to have experienced anything like what Max had.
Of course she hadn't. Maybe there had been a screwup at the radio station, something that made it blast out music at eardrum-popping levels. But that couldn't explain the volume on cars and birds an power lines. No, whatever that was had happened inside him.
Max let out a long, shuddering breath and lowered his hands to the wheel. He waited a few more minutes to make sure he wasn't going to get hit with another sound blast, then he pulled away from the curb.
He felt the tension in his neck and shoulders and arms as he drove. Even his fingers were curled too tightly around the wheel. Relax, he told himself. Just take a deep breath and relax. His body wouldn't obey -- it was bracing itself for the next assault.
But it didn't come. Max made it to the UFO museum without even a flash of the mega-sound blast. He maneuvered the he jeep into an empty spot in the parking lot. Should I ask Ray about what happened? he wondered. Maybe it was an alien thing.
But Ray Iburg didn't like being asked question's about alien things. He said that even though Max, Isabel, and Michael were from his home planet, earth was their home now. He didn't want them to spend their lives thinking about some other place.
Even though Max suspected that Ray spent a lot of time thinking about home -- his home.
When Max first found out that Ray was an alien too, he'd gotten this picture in his mind. He'd never admitted it to anyone else, but he'd thought he and Ray would get a Luke Skywalker-Yoda kind of thing going, where Ray would impart all his wisdom to Max, tell Max about his parents, teach him how to refine his powers, that kind of stuff. Okay, maybe it was dorky. But that's what he'd thought.
It hadn't turned out like that. Ray had told him and Michael about their parents' death. He'd shown them a hologram re-creation of the spaceship crashing in the desert outside Roswell back in 1947. And he'd told them how he brought their incubation pods from the ship to the desert cave where they would be safe during the years it took them to develop to maturity. He'd even shown them a few new things that they could do with their powers, things that might help protect them against being discovered by Sheriff Valenti. Plus he'd completely been there for them when a group of alien bounty hunters came after Maria.
That was all. Ray was happy for Max to keep working at the museum. But he acted as if he and Max were just two ordinary humans. And he wanted Max to act the same way.
Max wanted so much more from Ray. He wanted Ray to teach him the history of their planet -- its culture and all its phenomena. Ray might tell him if the intense volume thing Max had just experienced was alien related. But then he'd probably clam up.
Max climbed out of the Jeep and crossed the parking lot. He took off his sunglasses and hooked them over the edge of his T-shirt.
"I found a great painting of foo fighters," Ray announced the second Max walked through the door. "Come check it out." He started toward the back of the museum without waiting for a reply.
"I didn't know Foo Fighters had any UFO connection," Max commented as he followed Ray.
"Don't say that so loud," Ray cautioned. He took a quick glance around for tourists, but the museum's few customers were flipping through the T-shirt rack on the other side of the place. "People pay good money to come in here and enjoy their wacky human theories. Myself, I think it's the World War Two version of an urban legend. That generations hook-handed man in the back of a car."
"Whoa. I'm talking about the rock band here, Ray. And you would be talking about?"
Ray turned the corner and nodded at a massive oil painting of an old fighter plane being chased by what looked like balls of orange and green fire. "The band got their name from these foo fighters. That's what people called the incredibly fast, glowing balls and silver disks reported to follow planes and ships in the European and Pacific theaters during the war. The UFologist types think they were UFOs," Ray explained. He pointed at Max. "And if anyone asks you about them, you believe the same thing. Got it?"
"I live to deceive the public," Max said. Now seemed like a good time to ask about what had happened in the car.
I Ray tilted his head to one side. "I think that painting is crooked. Good thing I left the ladder out."
"I'll fix it." Max hurried over and climbed up to the second-highest step. He pushed the corner of the painting down about half an inch. "How does that look?" he asked.
He stood way too close to it to tell. The painting was so big, it filled most of his field of vision. Max stared at it, transfixed. The orange and green balls practically vibrated with color. He felt as if they were flying toward him. They were so bright, they almost seemed to glow.
"Ray? Is it straight?" Max repeated. He felt his mouth moving, forming the words. But no sound came out. He realized the museum had become absolutely silent.
"Ray!" he shouted. He could feel the muscles in his throat working. But he couldn't force out a sound.
He started to turn and look for Ray, but his gaze locked on the colors of the painting. They were brighter now. So bright, they made his eyes burn.
Look away! Now! he ordered himself. But the colors were so beautiful. So vivid. Mesmerizing. The green and orange filled his vision. It was like staring directly into the sun. And he couldn't force his gaze away.
His eyes felt like hot coals jammed into his head. The green and orange balls exploded in front of him. Filling his vision with searing bits of color.
Then a wave of dizziness swept through Max, and the world went black. He couldn't feel the ladder under his feet. And he was falling.
He knew he was only a few feet off the ground. He should have landed instantaneously. But he kept hurtling through the dark, silent void. Spinning, twisting, rolling. But always falling.
Then it was over. He could feel the museum's tile floor under his back. He could hear Ray's voice saying his name.
He opened his eyes a crack. He saw blobs of color, but none had the effect of the paintings green and orange balls of fire. He opened his eyes the rest of the way and sat up.
"Are you okay? What happened?" Ray asked.
Max scrubbed his face with his fingers. "I was hoping you would tell me," he muttered.
Ray turned to the group of tourists who had gathered. "He's fine. You can all go back to what you were doing. Don't miss the crop circle exhibit," he told them. Then he helped Max to his feet. "Come on, I'll get you something to drink."
Ray led Max to a table at the back of the museum's little coffee shop. "You want water, a Lime Warp, what?"
Max shook his head. All he wanted was information. And fast. "Nothing. I just need you to help me figure out what's going on. I was standing on the ladder, and everything was normal. Then the green and orange in the painting got brighter and brighter until they were burning my eyes. Then it's like I went blind. And deaf -- that actually happened first. And then I was falling. It was like I'd fallen off a skyscraper or something. It took me forever to hit the ground."
Saying all that out loud...it made him feel like a loon. Maybe he had a fever or something.
Ray sat down across from Max and studied his face tensely "Is this the first time anything like this happened?" he asked.
"On the way here something weird happened, the sounds got incredibly. loud. I thought my eardrums were going to explode. And then it just stopped. Everything sounded normal again," Max told him. He lowered his voice. "I thought at first maybe it was an alien thing. But maybe it's -- "
"You thought right," Ray jumped in. "Have you had any spells of extreme
"I guess, sort of. Once or twice," Max admitted thinking back over the past few weeks. He hadn't really thought anything about those spells.
Ray nodded, his expression grave. You've just described the first stage of the akino.
"And that would be?" Max asked. He struggled to stay calm and rational, even though there was something in Ray's tone that made Max's anxiety level spike. Not to mention the streaks of sickly yellow invading the blue-and-green whorls of Ray's aura.
"Our race has a...collective consciousness," Ray explained. "It's like a psychic Internet. All the knowledge, all the life experience, all the emotions of all of our people are there in the consciousness. When a person reaches maturity, he or she is able to make the connection to the consciousness for the
first time. This rite of passage is called the akino. The physical symptoms you've experienced -- the bursts of heightened sensation, the fatigue -- are signals that it is time for you to make your connection."
Max breathed a sigh of relief. "So, it's a good thing, right?" Actually it sounded more than good. It sounded awesome. The collective consciousness would hold the answer to every question Max had about his home planet his people.
He felt some of the tightness in his muscles ease a little. He didn't have some hideous aliens-only disease. And Ray knew exactly what was going on. He could walk Max through the whole akino deal.
"Usually it would be a cause for celebration," Ray agreed. "Like a human bar mitzvah or a wedding. But -- "
"I know, I know. I live on earth. This is my home. I shouldn't waste time thinking about a place I'll never go," Max interrupted.
"That's not what I was going to say," Ray told him. "There is no question that you must join the collective consciousness. And soon. But we're too far away. You need...you need the communication crystals. And they're on the ship."
"The ship? The ship disappeared after the crash, remember? We don't know where it is," Max protested. "Michael and I have been looking for it practically our whole lives."
Ray reached across the table and grabbed Mix hand. Which was weird. Ray wasn't one of those touchy-feely guys. Max felt his muscles retighten until his entire body ached.
"Max, if you don't connect to the consciousness, you will die," Ray said slowly and clearly.
Die. The word sucked all the air out of Max's lungs and left him gasping.
No. It couldn't be. A few dizzy spells could not possibly equal a fatal disease.
"Wait," he protested. "I've lived on earth my whole life. You have no way of knowing how that's changed my body. You can't be sure I'll respond the same way I would have if I was on our home planet," Max said in a rush. He tried to pull his hand free, but Ray tightened his grip.
"You're right. I don't know how growing to maturity on this planet has affected you. But here's what I do know," Ray answered. "I know that the experiences you described to me -- the painfully loud sounds and bright colors -- they're almost exactly what I went through myself when it was my akino time."
"That doesn't mean crap. I thought you were supposed to be a scientist or something. Don't you think you're making a huge assumption here?" Max demanded. He gave his hand another wrench, and this time Ray let it go.
Max crossed his arms, tucking his hand against his body. But he could still feel the tremors running through it.
"Maybe you're right," Ray said gently. He used his sleeve to rub a coffee stain off one of the little alien faces decorating the table. "But just in case you're not, I -- "
Max felt like he was about to lose it. He could already feel a lump growing in his throat, and his eyes were getting so wet that another blink might bring tears.
He sprang out of his chair so quickly that it topled. He caught it before it hit the ground and slammed it back in place. Then he took a long breath, pulling it deep into his lungs. "What do you want me to do today?" he asked. "I know you're not paying me to grow my hair."
Ray gave a small smile -- whether because Max had used one of Ray's favorite expressions or because of his amazingly obvious subject change, Max wasn't sure. "Why don't you go into the storage area and see if you can find any more foo fighter stuff for the display?
"On it." Max took three steps away from the table, then turned. "Ray, if you're right and I do have to connect to the consciousness, how much time do I have?"
"It's hard to, say exactly," Ray admitted. "Maybe months. Maybe days."

.NET Array Collections File String Async Cast DataTable DateTime Dictionary Enum Exception For Foreach IEnumerable If IndexOf Lambda LINQ List Parse Path Process Property Regex Replace Sort Split StringBuilder Substring Switch Tuple
A newline on Windows equals \r\n. To add newlines in a C# string, there are a couple options. There is a constant from the base class library and the actual string literal. We review these newline options.Environment
Here we need to create a string with a line break in the middle of it, which will form a two-line string. We will use the Environment.NewLine constant for this, which is defined by the .NET Framework and could vary by platform.
C# program that uses Environment.NewLine using System; class Program { static void Main() { // // Use string concat to combine two literals // with the newline constant. // string s = "First line" + Environment.NewLine + "Second line"; Console.Write(s); Console.Read(); } } Output First line Second line
Next, we see that you can simply use a string literal to add a line break. You don't need to use Environment.NewLine as in the first example. You can use the "\r\n" constant directly—this can actually be a better choice.
Note:This constant changes the MSIL generated. It is effective on Windows platforms and is, in practical aspects, the same.
C# program that uses newline constant using System; class Program { static void Main() { // // Use "\r\n" string in string concat. // string s = "One line" + "\r\n" + "Another line"; Console.Write(s); Console.Read(); } } Output One line Another line
As we noted before, Environment.NewLine is simply a constant property in .NET, and it could be tied to the current executing environment or platform. But almost all C# program deployments use Windows—with the exception of Mono on Linux.
Call instruction L_000b: call string [mscorlib]System.Environment::get_NewLine() Implementation of get_NewLine .method public hidebysig specialname static string get_NewLine() cil managed { .maxstack 8 L_0000: ldstr "\r\n" L_0005: ret }
The above IL is generated when you call Environment.NewLine. The "get_" part simply indicates that the value is fetched from a property. This is inlined so has no performance penalty.Intermediate LanguageProperty Examples
Next, we look into get_NewLine and its implementation. You can see it simply returns the "\r\n" string literal. You can find more information on the usage and implementation of string literals in the C# language on this website.String Literal
Tip:Environment.NewLine could result in different constants being returned, such as "\n" on UNIX platforms with Mono.
Also:It is possible that a new character set could have another constant as a line break.
We use the Environment.NewLine constant in the C# language. Some developers find the Environment.NewLine constant has more clarity in their code. But it is unlikely that we will forget what \r\n or \n mean, so the clarity is no better.

Elsevier has announced a special collaboration with researchers in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to bring the benefits of the scientific Web to researchers around the world. "Search Scirus with TEK", combines Scirus, Elsevier's scientific search engine, with TEK's low bandwidth solution to maximize access to the scientific Web in developing countries.
Researchers at institutions in developing countries submit a query through the TEK search engine, which is emailed directly to MIT. The TEK Server searches the Web, locates pages, selects which pages to send back, compresses them, and returns them back to the user. Because the search results are returned asynchronously, by email, the connectivity charges are lower. Elsevier's Scirus search engine will add to the TEK project by providing access to the scientific subset of the Web. As part of "Search Scirus with TEK," Scirus will enable researchers to retrieve relevant search results while spending minimum time online.

There's only one month where shaving off your facial hair is frowned upon and that month is November. Throughout this entire month men put down their razors and pick up some moustache wax and beard oil for the good of promoting awareness for men's health. If you're participating in this awareness month, we'll make sure your items do their part in helping with your goals - whether it's raising money for the cause or showing customers that you'll do anything, even grow your best attempt at a moustache to be their number one!
Customized calendars or day planners are a great item to give to your male and female customers. The men may be sad to see the days flying by with their awesome moustache, whereas their wives, girlfriends, sisters, mothers, etc., will want to count down the days until December 1st. Every day from now until the end of the calendar will be a great opportunity to show off your company's name and logo on a daily basis.
Are you hosting an outdoor fun run or an indoor dodgeball tournament during the month to raise even more funds? Outfit all your participants with a custom water bottle to commemorate the event and give them a fun souvenir to use beyond November. Moustaches never go out of style, so incorporate one into your logo and there won't be any question about whether your recipient uses it again or not. Clearly they will.
An imprinted awareness ribbon in light blue will make sure everyone who sees it thinks of the importance of men's health and makes an appointment with their physician. Go with a magnet that can be safely attached to a car or refrigerator or filing cabinet and no matter the day it will be seen. Promotional magnets are incredibly easy to bring along to health fairs or for keeping in a desk drawer to give to clients who stop in. They never go bad and your company's name will make a positive impression on everyone!
Now comes the part where we 'moustache' if any of these items struck your fancy? Be sure to 'shave' any questions for our helpful sales team members to answer. They'll make sure you feel 100% comfortable with the ordering process so your logo will look its best, no matter which item you order.

Nine-year-old Bruins fan Liam Fitzgerald stole the hearts of the hockey world in November when he fist-bumped every member of the Bruins as they came off the ice before a game. And on Thursday, the inspirational youngster was back at a Boston game to receive a huge honor: his own hockey card. More
After struggling for much of last season and this one, Arizona Coyotes goalie Mike Smith seems to have his mojo back. He hasn't been rewarded with many wins, but he's stopping a lot more pucks and leading by example.
Legendary defenseman Chris Pronger had his road to the Hockey Hall of Fame cleared Thursday after a report indicated the HHOF had altered its induction eligibility criteria. Injuries forced Pronger from the game in 2011, but salary cap issues prevented his induction – and this was the right move to make.
Arizona Coyotes radio analyst and former NHL defenseman Nick Boynton is in the custody of Buffalo police and faces numerous charges – including assault, harassment and resisting arrest – after an alleged incident in the early hours of Thursday morning.
The Bruins are on the verge of an unfamiliar position: missing the playoffs. What happens to their roster – and brain trust – if they flop in the home stretch?
With less than 10 games remaining for all playoff hopefuls, find out what's on the horizon for the wild-card teams and what it's going to take for them to make it to the post-season. It's a five-team race in the West, but the East's battle between Boston and Ottawa is one to watch.
Some series will be slaughters, but others will be classics. And some already have a nice layer of intrigue to them, as our prospect expert breaks down major junior's first round of playoff action.
The Philadelphia Flyers acquisition of Steve Mason nearly two years ago was puzzling, to say the least. But in two seasons, Mason has turned his game around and is making believers out of those who thought his career was all but over.
With the Buffalo Sabres and Arizona Coyotes playing each other twice over the next four days, there is an enormous amount at stake when it comes to the 2015 draft. The reverberations might be felt for years to come and could change the course of history for both teams.

League of Legends
Any jungling advice? (Maokai specifically).
Pretty new to jungling, and I think I have the clearing camps part down, but the whole ganking part I seem to have trouble with.
I know to gank lanes that are pushed, and if my team has all lanes pushed I just continue to farm until I see an opportunity. But when the opportunity arises, (like top lane), I go to bush, ping target, then come out leading with root following up with slow. but everytime the enemy immediatly flashes/runs back to their turret before we can kill them. Does this just happen regularly? And I used "we" generously, because usually when I gank the top sits back and watches me 1v1 the enemy until he's 100% sure we can kill them before he decides to join me <_<.
Can't think of a sig.
If they flash away, come back to the lane soon.
Flash has a really long cooldown.
Alright thanks, so I'm doing the whole "ganking" initation thing correctly though by running out of the bush until they are in root range, then following up with slow?
Can't think of a sig.
Try to make sure they're a good way past the river, toss a sapling first then W onto them for more dmg, then Q then towards your opponent. If you have red buff auto attack and if your laner is smart you should get a successful gank.
Vlad/Teemo/Jax/Lee are very frustrating to lane against as they have good escapes, but yoricks, garens, cho's should be relativly easy.
Root and only arcane smash immediately as soon as they start moving again. That way you will maximize your CCs to the best. Also try buying the Boots of Mobility, that would make you gank almost every lane even faster. Don't forget sell off the Boots of Mobility later and get a Merc/Tabi Boots when laning phase is over.
"Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom I am the worst." - 1 Timothy 1:15
Awesome was always afraid of tossing the sapling for fear it would give away my position. Appreciate it man, and ya Jax jumped to his minion before and my root followed him under his turret. Felt bad.
Can't think of a sig.
Just some advice against Jax/Kat/Lee Sin, try to time your ganks so that he won't have a minion wave to jump to. You can track the progress of his minions by looking at yours on the minimap, since they spawn at the same time.
"We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin."
- Andre Berthiaume, Contretemps
Double gank is usually very effective if you know there are no wards. First gank usually burn summoner and they usually think they are safe for a while since you just ganked. The second ganks leads to a kill or force them to b.
That was a fail, an epic fail.. - Guy Cecil
Sell boots, time minion waves, attempt double ganks. Thank you all, hoping to get this jangling thing down.
Can't think of a sig.

Managing Tasks with Avant Window Navigator
Productivity Sauce
Avant Window Navigator (AWN) isn't just a pretty launch bar: add a couple of applets and you can use AWN to read RSS feeds, monitor system resources, and even manage tasks and to-dos. The latter is possible thanks to two applets: Remember The Milk (RTM) and To-Do List.
As you might have guessed, the RTM applet provides a simple interface to Remember The Milk -- probably the most popular and innovative Web-based task manager out there. Using the applet, you can view and edit existing tasks as well as add new tasks right from AWN.
If you prefer to keep tabs on your to-dos using a standalone utility, the To-Do List (TDL) applet is for you. While it won't rival a dedicated task manager, TDL includes all the basic features that can help you to manage your to-dos with minimum effort. When creating a task, you can assign it a priority, add a brief description, and specify the completion status. TDL also lets you create categories which you can use to group your tasks. For example, you can create the Work and Personal categories, so you can keep your private and work-related to-dos separate. Despite being a rather basic task management tool, TDL does have a few nice touches. For example, when you populate TDL with tasks, the applet's icon displays the number of active tasks. The applet also uses color codes to make it easier for you to visually identify tasks' priorities. Finally, a tiny icon next to each task in the list displays the task's completion status.comments powered by Disqus

Get Crafty!
Release your inner bunny with this adorable Easter mask! Simply print our Hoppy Floppy Bunny mask on heavy cardstock and cut out (don't forget to cut holes for the eyes!). Punch holes on either side of the mask, thread an elastic string, and knot. Now personalize with embellishments like pipe cleaner whiskers and pompom cheeks and you've got the perfect Easter accessory!
Squeeze in Some Science!
Check out our very own Nancy B, of Nancy B's Science Club™, perform her latest egg-cellent egg-speriment. Gather two raw eggs (use decorated eggs for an Easter spin), salt, and two clear drinking glasses. Now, let the magic of science begin!
Spot the Signs of Spring!
Work together to make a list of things that happen in the springtime. Green grass peeks out from below the frost, flowers begin to bloom, the sun stays out longer, baby animals are born, butterflies emerge from cocoons…you get the idea. Then take a walk and see how many signs you can spot in your own neighborhood. Added bonus – go home and draw what you saw!

Wondering if there any mods to replace or tweak the default task switcher in Android. Something like the HTC switcher (showing 9 cards at once) would be ideal.
So far I only have seen play store apps that only seem to supplement the default switcher not replace or tweak it.
Any about?

Know when to hold a good book, and snag Rogers bio
Luck or Something Like It by Kenny Rogers
c.2012, William Morrow
$27.99/$35.99 Canada
294 pages
Throughout your life, you've learned a lot from your music.
You know where Joltin' Joe has gone, and what you might want to do if it's your party.
You've gotten dancing lessons from songs, reasons for walking the line and symptoms for pneumonia and boogie-woogie flu.
You've even heard instructions on counting, spelling, languages and when to hold 'em or fold 'em.
You can learn a lot from your tunes. And as you'll see in the new book Luck or Something Like It by Kenny Rogers, the singer of those songs gets a lot out of them, too.
Kenneth Rogers started life poor. Born into a Houston housing project in 1938, Rogers was the fourth child of an alcoholic father and a mother who spouted lasting wisdom. He recalls being a quiet boy in school and a good boy at home, thanks to his mother's lessons, but the most enduring memories were of times spent at his grandfather's East Texas farm.
Every now and then, Rogers says, his father's family would gather there to play music and sing. His father was on fiddle, one uncle dragged out the organ and two others had guitars. Rogers says he sat with his feet under the porch, beating rhythm on the floor with his hands.
Though he was "girl crazy" when young, he was also guitar crazy and took advantage of a local music store owner's generosity in a "picker's corner." Rogers saved diligently to buy his first guitar and it wasn't long before he started a band.
That was a great way to learn, but it didn't last, and Rogers went solo – both professionally and personally, when his first marriage dissolved. That hurt, but it didn't ruin his momentum.
He recorded a minor hit, became Kenny, appeared on "American Bandstand" and ended up in a jazz band, which opened doors for his career. He met many performing stars, left the jazz band, then joined the New Christy Minstrels.
When they disbanded, some members formed The First Edition and, because of an accidental stroke of luck, Kenny Rogers was that group's first big name.
When The First Edition broke up, Rogers "didn't know how to be a solo singer." Within two years, he learned fast.
I've read my share of celebrity biographies and I can tell you the vast majority of them make my eyes roll.
But this one is different. This one is good.
Really good.
Reading this book reminded me of dusky summer evenings, porch swings and good friends. Author Kenny Rogers tells stories that are entertaining and sometimes funny, with good and bad tales and, in a few cases, admitted responsibility for wrongs.
Rogers writes of his five marriages, his friends, his career, family and things that interest him – and that's what keeps readers interested, too. Fans are going to like this book especially, but I'm tickled to say that there's something here for anybody who ever heard Rogers sing.
Grab the pages of Luck or Something Like It, and you'll want to hold 'em.
Terri Schlichenmeyer has been reading since she was three years old and never goes anywhere without a book. She lives on a hill in Wisconsin with two dogs and 11,000 books. Readers with questions or comments may write to Terri in care of this publication.
