text:
Cornell University's Legal Information Institute states litigation is "the process of resolving disputes by filing or answering a complaint through the public court system." Different types of litigation are acted upon using different sets of federal rules, state rules and rules individual to judges.
Litigation is broadly divided into civil and criminal law. Each case has at least one plaintiff bringing the case and at least one defendant being accused. In criminal law, the government brings the case against the defendant, and the intent is to punish a person who committed a crime. In civil law, the government may bring the case, but more often a private citizen or entity brings a case against another private citizen or entity. FindLaw states that the intent of a civil case is to seek redress when the defendant fails to fulfill a legal duty owed to the plaintiff.

DETROIT , MI - NOVEMBER 26: Head coach Jim Schwartz of the Detroit Lions watches the action during the game against the Green Bay Packers on November 26, 2009 at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. Green Bay won the game 34-12. (Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty Images)
In spite the external stones being flung at Detroit Lions bench boss Jim Schwartz, there are still plenty of supporters. One comes in the unlikely form of a divisional foe: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings.

Sorry if that was the wrong question. It just seemed to me that a partially automated coater such as Bronwing describes might be the perfect tool with which to answer small volume demands, e.g., specialty fiber papers and ULF film. (If it were not cost prohibitive) I imagine it would be possible to form a coop to bring such an idea to fruition.

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped yellow onions
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 pounds Idaho potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 7 cups chicken stock or canned, low-sodium chicken broth
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 8 ounces kale, large stems and ribs removed
- 8 ounces firm (smoked) chorizo or other hot smoked sausage, diced or crumbled
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large soup pot, and add the onions and garlic. Cook until the onions are wilted, 4 minutes. Add the potatoes and chicken stock, cover, and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, and add the crushed red pepper. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, 20 minutes.
While the potatoes are cooking, thinly slice the kale. Set aside.
When the soup is thick and the potatoes have begun to break down, add the sausage and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the kale and simmer until the leaves have softened but are still slightly crunchy and the flavors have melded, 15 minutes. Stir in the cilantro, parsley, and mint, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

This February, Matignon and Arlington High School had an amazing opportunity to visit one of the worldâ's most beautiful cities, London, England! Not only did we have so much fun, we also learned a great deal of British history. We saw many famous sights throughout London, took many incredible excursions, ate at culturally diverse restaurants, and saw three spectacular theatre productions. I have always had an obsession with London and seeing these places and hearing the history was very exciting. Seeing the famous sites that I have only seen in movies and books was surreal. None of us could stop snapping pictures. Big Ben, Parliament, Buckingham Palace, and Tower Bridge were larger than life. We also visited Kensington Palace where Princess Diana lived, the Tower of London which houses the crowned jewels, Saint Paulâ's Cathedral, Prince Albert Memorial, and Trafalgar Square. Besides its famous lions and Lord Nelsonâ's column, Trafalgar Square has a statute of George Washington. I found it interesting that because George Washington had vowed to never step on English soil again, the statute was placed on soil shipped from Mount Vernon in order to honor his wish. We also visited the British Museum that houses the Rosetta Stone, the key to deciphering hieroglyphics, as well as the Tate Modern containing many unique pieces of modern art. And of course we shopped at Harrods, one of the largest department stores in the world! Harrods has everything from top designers to a spectacular food emporium carrying everything from fresh meats and seafood to fine teas, chocolates, and desserts. Our trip would not have been complete without a ride on the London Eye, a huge ferris wheel-like structure with glass observation rooms and an incredible view of London. Even learning how to navigate through the London Tube (subway) system was fun as there were constant reminders to âœmind the gapâ" between the train and the platform. That phrase is so popular that some of us even purchased âœmind the gapâ" tee shirts. *Excursions* Our motor coach excursions out of London took us to Windsor Castle where the Queen resides when she is not at Buckingham Palace. I saw someone walking a corgi on the castle grounds. Who knows, it might have been the Queenâ's royal pooch. We also visited the mysterious, 5,000 year old Stonehenge. Although no one knows for sure, some believe that it may have been a religious temple, an astronomical clock, or a Bronze Age burial ground. Along with Stonehenge, we explored Bath, a beautiful city dating back to the first century AD when it was built by the Romans. The Romans built baths using the only thermal springs that exist in the UK. Stratford Upon-Avon was yet another charming town. We visited William Shakespeareâ's home and the cottage of his wife, Anne Hathaway. One of my favorite places we toured was Oxford University, one of the oldest universities in the world. Did you know that you could earn an undergraduate degree at Oxford in only 3 years? Thereafter, you can obtain your Masterâ's by just paying a fee of about $50 a year! What a great deal if you are lucky enough to get in. Among its famous graduates are Bill Clinton and C. S. Lewis, the author of the Chronicles of Narnia. The benefit to having tour guides is that you learn the history behind all the places you visit. I will never forget the story of King Henry VIIIâ's six wives and what happened to them with the trick our tour guide taught us; divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. I have been studying medieval history and Shakespeare this year and it was really cool to connect what I have learned to places that I have seen. We also learned some cool fun facts. Have you ever heard the expression âœsaved by the bellâ"? Well, it originated hundreds of years ago when people were accidentally buried alive. To solve the problem, a string would be tied to the finger of the deceased. A bell would be on the end above ground and if the person was still alive, he/she would move their finger and be well, saved by the bell. If you are a Harry Potter fan like I am, you would have enjoyed walking over Millennium Bridge that was destroyed by death eaters in the fifth movie, seeing the front of the building that was used as Gringotts Bank, and seeing the building in Oxford where the famous Great Hall dining scenes were filmed. Each night we dined at different restaurants. We were exposed to many different cuisines from Turkish to French to traditional English food like fish and chips. We even ate at a restaurant called Wagamama, which serves noodles and other Asian food. The only ones in the United States are found right here in Massachusetts. Some of us just could not resist a burger at the world famous original Hard Rock Café. Although some of us were a bit picky, it was cool to try new types of food from all over the world. *Theatre* One of the major highlights of our trip was going to the theatre. We saw three amazing plays: Sister Act, The 39 Steps, and Wicked. They were definitely very memorable, and we all really enjoyed them. We also had a tour of the Theatre Royal at Drury Lane, the oldest theatre in the world and were the Queen attends plays. Apparently, the theatre is haunted and several people claim that they have seen a ghost walking through one of the walls. When the wall was torn open a few years ago, a manâ's skeleton was found inside. To complete our theatre education, we attended a workshop at Shakespeareâ's Globe Theatre. There we learned about plays during the time of Shakespeare. *Appreciation* One of the nice things about school trips is that everyone really gets a chance to know each other better and make new friends. Our chaperones, including Mrs. Dâ'Angelo, Ms. Foley, and Ms. Rad were really great. I especially want to thank Ms. Rad for putting this fun and educational trip together. It was nice spending time with everyone in a non-school setting. Overall, I think I speak for my classmates when I say that we all had a blast in London. It was an amazing experience and I wish we could do it all over again. Article written by Julia Capano (Class of 2013)

The 1999 state and county estimates of poverty and income were released in October 2002. For an overview of the changes in methodology between this release and the previous release see Estimation Procedure Changes.Several features of the 1999 state estimates should be noted.
Bayesian Estimation Techniques. The models SAIPE used to estimate 1999 income and poverty at the state level employ both direct survey-based estimates of 1999 income and poverty from the March 2000 CPS and regression predictions of income and poverty based on administrative records and Census 2000 data. We combine the regression predictions with the direct sample estimates using Bayesian techniques. The Bayesian techniques weight the contribution of the two components (regression predictions and direct estimates) on the basis of their relative precision.
The regression model used to develop the regression predictions is postulated for the true, unobserved poverty ratios or median income, but it is fitted to the CPS direct estimates allowing for the sampling error in the data. If the variance of the error term in this regression model (the model error variance) were known, then the Bayesian estimate for each state would be a weighted average (shrinkage estimate) of the state's regression prediction and direct CPS estimate. The two weights in this average add to 1.0, with the weight on the direct estimate computed as the model error variance divided by the total variance (model error variance plus sampling error variance). In this average, the larger the sampling variance of a direct sample estimate, the smaller its contribution to the shrinkage estimate, and the larger the contribution from the regression prediction. Since the model error variance is unknown, the Bayesian approach averages the shrinkage estimates computed over a plausible range of values of the model error variance, weighting the results for each of these values according to the posterior (conditional on the data) probability distribution of the model error variance developed from the Bayesian calculations. The result is generally very close to what one gets by estimating the model error variance by the mean of its posterior distribution and computing the corresponding shrinkage estimate. Technical details of the Bayesian approach are discussed in the paper, "Accounting for Uncertainty About Variances In Small Area Estimation," (Bell 1999) in the Published Papers section of this web site.
Prior Distribution for Regression Parameters. Bayesian estimation requires that a "prior probability distribution" be specified for the model parameters to reflect what we know about them prior to fitting the model to the data. In past years we used a noninformative prior that conveyed no useful prior information - the prior distribution was simply a constant over all parameter values. For 1999, however, we specified an informative prior distribution for the regression coefficients of the administrative records predictors in the poverty ratio models. (We still used a noninformative, constant prior for the other model parameters.) We made this change because of the unique status of the census poverty ratio estimates when they refer to the same year as the CPS estimates being modeled rather than to an earlier year. Since the 2000 census and 2000 CPS both estimated poverty for 1999, albeit with differences in regard to sampling and nonsampling errors, there is reason to expect the administrative records regression variables in the CPS models to be much less relevant in 1999 than in other, non-census years. Empirical verification of this came from model fits to 1990 CPS poverty ratio estimates for IY 1989 using 1990 census data in the model: the fits showed the coefficients on the administrative records variables to be statistically insignificant for all age groups. To reflect our prior knowledge that the administrative records variables should be less relevant for 1999 than for non-census years, and that in fact for 1999 they may not be useful at all, we used a prior distribution for their regression coefficients that had mean zero and had variance determined in a manner we thought to be "conservative" in the sense of avoiding placing too much confidence in the prior.
Results from the poverty ratio model fits for IY 1989 were used in developing the prior variances of the administrative records variables' regression coefficients. In fact, we simply took the variance matrix of these coefficients from the fitted model and multiplied it by 4 to reflect additional uncertainty about how these results from 1989 would translate to 1999. This doubled the standard deviations of these parameters from the 1989 model fits to reflect a relatively mild amount of prior information ("conservative assumptions.")
The use of the informative prior reduced the uncertainty about the corresponding regression coefficients in the 1999 poverty ratio models. It thus yielded small reductions in the state prediction error variances, and hence slightly narrower confidence intervals for the true poverty ratios. The prior had very minor effects on the point estimates.
We did not use an informative prior distribution for the coefficient of the administrative records variable (IRS median adjusted gross income) in the 1999 CPS median income model, because in the median income model we fit for IY 1989, we found the IRS variable to be statistically significant, even with the census data in the model. The same result also held in the 1999 median income model.
Poverty Ratios and Numbers of Poor People. Deriving state-level estimates of the numbers of poor people of various ages involves two steps. The first step is to apply the Bayesian estimation techniques applied to CPS direct state estimates of "poverty ratios." The second step is to multiply the resulting model-based poverty ratio estimates by corresponding demographic population estimates to convert the results to estimates of the numbers of poor people of various ages.
The poverty ratios used as the dependent variables in the regression models have the CPS direct-estimated number poor of the given age in the numerator and the CPS direct-estimated noninstitutional population of the given ages in the denominator. These "poverty ratios" differ from official poverty rates which would use the CPS estimated poverty universes of the given age as the denominators. (For a discussion of the differences between the noninstitutional population and the poverty universe see Denominators for Model-Based State and County Poverty Rates).
We use CPS estimated numbers in both the numerator and denominator of the poverty ratios because positive correlation between the two estimates generally makes the resulting poverty ratio estimate more precise than one obtained with a CPS estimated numerator and a demographic population estimate in the denominator. We multiply the model-based poverty ratio estimates by demographic population estimates, however, because the demographic estimates are deemed more reliable than CPS direct population estimates, which contain substantial sampling error for most states. The CPS controls survey weights only to estimates of the population age 16 and over at the state level, and we are making estimates for more specific age groups.
While we have multiplied model-based poverty ratio estimates by population estimates at the state level, we have not addressed the county-level estimation in the same way, because the estimates of the populations of counties by age are likely to be much less stable than the state population estimates, and little is known about their error structure. Thus, for counties, we directly model (logarithms of) CPS estimates of the number of poor people.
Controlling to the National Estimates. After converting the Bayesian estimates of poverty ratios to state estimates of numbers of poor, we control these estimates to the direct national estimate of number poor based on the CPS. We do not control estimates of state median household income to the national median because the estimation model does not produce the entire household income distribution, which would be required to do so.
Using Estimates from Census 2000 in the Models. The Census 2000 estimates provide regression predictor variables for each of the age-specific poverty ratio models and the median income model. The specific variables are documented below. The models use the actual census estimates, rather than "census residuals" as was generally done in previous years. However, since 1999 is a census year, the models using census estimates as a regression variable are equivalent or nearly equivalent to models using census residuals for the purpose of developing model-based estimates of poverty ratios or median income. For further discussion of this point see Estimation Procedure Changes for the 1999 Estimates on this web site.
The Poverty Ratio Models
The model of 1999 state poverty ratios employs the following predictors:
Note the population estimates for other years use July 1, demographic population estimates in the denominators. For 1999 estimates we use Census 2000, which represents April 1, 2000 population.
For further information on these variables, go to Information about Data Inputs.
The dependent variable is the 1999 state estimate of the ratio of the number poor for the relevant age group to the noninstitutional population of that age with both the numerator and denominator estimated from the March 2000 CPS.
Estimating the Total Number of Poor People.
We derive the estimate of the total number of poor people in a state by summing the separate model-based estimates of the number of poor people by age (not limited to related children). The age groups with separate models were 1) people under 5 years of age, 2) people age 5 to 17 years, 3) people age 18 to 64 years, and 4) people age 65 years and over.
The Model For Median Household Income
The regression model for the 1999 median household income for states has the following predictor variables:
The dependent variable is the direct estimate of median household income in 1999 from the
March 2000 CPS.

She insists that Jon's only hope is to summon the ghost of the late knight Longspee. Will Longspee help? Can he be trusted?

Stung By Wasps AND Suffering From Lyme Disease: I Can't Catch A Break
You know that funny, itchy feeling when something is crawling around or worse, lodged where it doesn't belong?
So, here we are, on day 47 of the worst heat wave since the days of the dinosaurs – or so it seems – and health authorities continue to treat people like imbeciles.
Following is an actual excerpt from an advisory on preventing heat-related illness issued by the Centers for Disease Control, regarded as one of the nation's leading authorities on all things medical:
– Drink more fluids.
– Take a cool shower or bath.
The estimable American Red Cross makes this suggestion:
"If you do not have air conditioning, choose places you could go to for relief from the heat during the warmest part of the day (schools, libraries, theaters, malls)."
And the National Weather Service warns:
– Slow down. Reduce, eliminate or reschedule strenuous activities until the coolest time of the day.
– Dress for summer. Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing.
– Don't get too much sun.
Gee, I don't know about you, but I always emulate mad dogs and Englishmen by going out in the midday sun. I also found its best to wear a wool sweater, overcoat, hat and mittens when running in excessively hot weather, and avoid consuming any liquids.
Conversely, in late January when snow flies, winds howl and temperatures plummet, these same institutions warn about the perils of hypothermia and frostbite by urging anyone venturing outdoors to dress in layers, stay dry and avoid prolonged exposure to severe cold.
Ya think?
With this in mind, I hereby offer similarly useful tips for dealing with a plethora of health- and weather-related situations those of us who venture into the great outdoors occasionally experience.
– Don't seek refuge during a lightning storm by climbing a flagpole.
– When encountering a hornet's nest it's best not to whack it with a stick.
– Never try to tease a grizzly bear by playfully running off with one of its cubs.
– To avoid unforeseen complications most rock climbers opt to tie off the top of the rope before belaying.
– Don't assess avalanche risk by jumping up and down on a snow shelf.
– Stop eating freshly picked mushrooms immediately at the onset of projectile vomiting.
– One way of determining if snakebite was from a potentially lethal copperhead or from a harmless milk snake is excruciating, throbbing pain in the vicinity of the bite.
– The efficacy of repeated cursing as an insect repellant has not been adequately proven.
– Never accept an invitation to hunt quail with Dick Cheney.
– A startled skunk that spins around and lifts its tail in your direction is trying to tell you something.
Anyway, I trust the persistently oppressive heat and humidity aren't deterring fellow adventurers from enjoying the great outdoors.
Now if you'll excuse me, it's time to don my expedition parka and insulated climbing pants before heading on for a midday hike.
You know that funny, itchy feeling when something is crawling around or worse, lodged where it doesn't belong?

Power sector at crossroads, says Perm Sec
The power sector is in a fix and requires painful treatment to produce results at the earliest time possible.
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Power, Dr. Dere Awosika, stated this yesterday at a meeting with the top Management Staff of the Ministry in Abuja.
He said the road to achieving sustainable electricity is difficult, adding that the foundation being laid by the presentadministration would hasten the process in achieving the desired result.
In a statement, the Assistant Director, Press, Greyne Anosike, said Dr. Awosika stressed the need for the staff in generation, transmission and distribution to consistently adhere to the necessary synergy required to achieve the national vision in the sector.
"You must clag and write what you see so that the patient does not die. Some drugs reduce pains faster than others so we must inject the fastest pain relieving drug into the system so that the patient (power sector), does not die, but recover from its debilitating and perennial ailment," she stated, adding that "the light vision for Nigeria, mission possible" should be the watchword in the sector. "Work as if your life depended on this 'power thing," she stated.
She urged the staff to absorb "any person who can help us. If there are Nigerians (outside the service) who can help the system, please accommodate them. We can't afford to fail in this sector. We are not going to tolerate any person, no matter how highly placed, to constitute a clog in the wheel thereby retarding the progress. We must have this light and have it more abundantly soon," she stressed.
" Our lives and those of our children depend on electricity, the economy, employment, health sector, education, aviation and achieving all the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015, depend on this elusive power generation.
" You can understand why the government would not condone any recalcitrant elements on the way. We must successfully breast the tape before looking back.The various strategies may be painful, but we need to scrub the wound ( power sector), scrub, let the wound bleed, so that it would heal quickly.
"The power sector reform is a creation of the National Assembly. There are laid down rules and due processes to be followed in restoring sanity to the system. Our ministers are working their socks off to cast the demon out of the sector and therefore must not be coerced into abandoning the processes established by law so as to pacify critics," she stated, adding that "no room for mistakes will be tolerated in the privatisation.
Nigeria's first wind farm funded power plant by the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA), is expected to contribute 10MW to the national grid.
In a statement, the Ministry of Power said the wind propelled power project is due for inauguration in July this year in Kastina State.
The Minister of State for Power, Darius Ishaku, who stated this in a chat when the Kastina State Commissioner for Water Resources, Jamilu Mohammed Dan Musa and the Special Adviser on Higher Education, Dr.Garba Shehu Matazu, visited him in Abuja, yesterday, said another 0.8MW would be transmitted directly to the Umaru Musa Yar'Adua University, Kastina to serve it. The 0.8MW, he added, would be sourced from a solar energy project also on-going in the State.
He advised the state government to woo private investors to participate in the provision of electricity, as the government was willing to encourage private-public partnership (PPP).
He said the Federal Government is making efforts to provide lasting solutions to the challenges in the power sector, adding that the current problem of outages is caused by the shut down of Kainji Hydro Power plant due to flood and under performance of the turbines in the Shiroro Hydro Power station due to low water level in the last few weeks.

I really don't care if Brady wins MVP! I think AP deserves it, but all I hear is Peyton Manning. Mr. Win in the regular season. The only MVP award I want Brady to win is the Superbowl MVP.

Yes. The last MVP to win a Super Bowl was Kurt Warner in 1999. Let someone else have it. It's more of a popularity contest anyway. I want to see Brady holding another Super Bowl trophy!
Re: MVP!!!!!

Brady is probably out of the running. Peterson would be my choice, what he's done is historic. Truth is no QB has been that special this year. It's been a down year, but the top guy is Aaron Rodgers. He had the most TD's, best rating and fewer INT's than Manning. IMO a QB shoudn't win the MVP unless they are the top QB, but Manning has won it before when he wasn't the best QB (2008, 2009).
I wonder if the media ever gets tired of predicting he will be the GOAT only to have him consistently embarass them in the playoffs.

Within this site you can find details of the regular meetings, events, gatherings and retreats we sometimes organise and host. There's news, articles and updates, information and a library of resources to read, audio to listen to, and also video to watch.
Regular Meetings
We run a weekly Maidstone Group, usually at the Blackthorn Trust on Tuesday 7:30pm - 10:00pm. People new to Buddhism are welcome equally as are experienced practitioners. There are Meetings in Ashford though not weekly and we do have a weekly small Group in Canterbury.
Practice Days
Other planned events are to develop our practice a sense of spiritual friendship.
As well as our Days of study and/or practice, our activities include sangha walks or 'yatra' enjoying the beautiful Kent countryside; celebration of Buddhist festivals and we also plan to include children in family fun days.
Retreats & Visits
There's always something in the diary to look forward to and participate in, whether it's festivals such as Wesak, short weekend retreats, or extended week-long retreats.
From time to time we visit one of the monasteries as a group. We also aim to organise two residential retreats locally in Kent.
Online Study
We appreciate people interested in Buddhism as well as experienced practitioners in and around Kent do not always find it easy to get to meet at the Maidstone group on a regular basis. We provide online resources to study, guided meditations and talks, videos to watch, more articles to read.

Blazers president talks Roy, Oden, GM… but no real answers
Dec 1, 2011, 11:45 AM EDT
Blazers president Larry Miller took on all questions and talked a lot at a Wednesday press conference. But like a good politican, he didn't really say much.
The Blazers are a team at a crossroads. What are they going to do with Brandon Roy? Greg Oden? When are they going to get a permanent general manager? How do they go from a team with good pieces to a contender?
Not sure that Miller has the answers. Whatever answers he had he wasn't spilling at the press conference. Blazers Edge has a full transcript of the presser for your perusal.
This is my favorite quote from the whole thing:
If we have a healthy Greg and a healthy Brandon we've got a great roster. If there's some issues there then we've got to figure out what we are going to do. I think our roster is good.
If Eddy Curry had a great work ethic and could stay healthy Isiah Thomas would have been right. If the Sixers had Allen Iverson circa 2000 they'd be a lot better off. Ifs are moot. Miller sounds like the head of a team in denial — Oden is not right and may never be (he is reportedly on a January timetable), and Roy is never going to be the same player again. Yes the rest of the roster is pretty nice (LaMarcus Aldridge and Nicolas Batum in particular), but without a superstar they are average. That is reality.
Regarding Brandon Roy and the amnesty clause…
The reality is that we have not – and regardless of what's been said by John Canzano and others out there – no decision has been made on amnesty as of yet. We are still looking at every possible option that is available to us but we have not made a decision as far as Brandon or anyone at this point.
The first call that [Acting GM] Chad [Buchanan] made this morning, he counted the clock down at 5:59, 6:00 this morning, his first call was to Brandon's agent to talk about how Brandon is doing, when we can sit down and have a conversation with Brandon. With everything that Brandon has done for this organization, there's no way we would make a decision like that without having conversations with them, without evaluating where he is and seeing what's going on with him.
Miller later made it sound like Roy would be part of the Blazers training camp, but that amnesty is not out of the question.
As for hiring a GM to really chart a direction for the franchise, there is no timetable.
We put (the search) on pause. It continues to be on pause. I and the rest of us are confident that with Chad (Buchanan, acting GM), with [coach] Nate [McMillan], with myself, with the people that we have in place here, we can make the decisions that this team needs made to be able to move this team forward and to be ready to go into next season. We know what we need in order to get better. We've been looking at all the free agents that are out there that can help us.
- luanmmxii - May 22, 2012 at 9:46 AM
I think they're doing well~~ as well as with Greg and Brandon's help.
They're really great as a team and that will not change as long as they're as ONE.

Create Icons and Cursors with Paint.NET
It is possible to customize icons and cursors with MS Windows. For example: software developers often create custom icons for their applications; even webmasters and bloggers use icons (called the "favicon") for their websites.
Recently, I came across an exemplary freeware alternative, called Paint.NET.
In many ways, Paint.NET is a mix between Photoshop, Paint Shop, and MS Paint. While there aren't very many freeware plug-ins available for Paint.NET, they are both easy to install and easy to run.
By itself, Paint.NET cannot edit .ICO and .CUR files; however, one plug-in in particular (aptly named the Icon/Cursor Plug-In), allows you to edit .ICO and .CUR files. All that is needed is to download the plug-in and extract it to the Paint.NET installation directory. You can then create icons and cursors in a feature-rich environment.
Both Paint.NET and the Icon/Cursor Plug-In are both free of charge.
