There is a growing body of research and studies showing the tangible benefits of massage therapy for your mental and physical health. This page is updated frequently, so check back often.
Massage therapy is proven to be effective on neck pain. The following linked study (NCCAM-funded, performed in Seattle, WA) compares general improvement, medication use, and other functional and "bothersomeness" metrics among two groups–one group was given a book on self-care, the other group received therapeutic massage treatment. The results are significant: After 10 weeks, the massage group was more likely than the self-care-book group to have clinically significant improvement in function and symptoms. At 26 weeks,...read more
"Touch is often the most neglected or assaulted sense of the hospitalized patient". Integrating massage therapy into a hospital setting shows how effective it is for not only treating physical pain, but how– on deeper physical, mental, and emotional levels–it not only treats injury, but treats and respects the patient as a whole, complex human being. From a marked improvement in the ability to rest (sleep) and thus promote speedy recovery, to much needed relief from acute physical pain, soreness–even to the extent...read more
Massage therapy is commonly used to alleviate muscle pain, with or without muscle inflammation. A study published in the Journal of Pain (done by researchers at University of Iowa), however, conclusively demonstrates that deep-tissue massage can reduce musculoskeletal pain associated with exercise, specifically pain experienced after unaccustomed exercise in otherwise healthy adults. The double-blind, randomized controlled trial consisted of subjects divided into three groups–those who received no massage (the control group); those who...read more
Controlled pilot study of the effects of neuromuscular therapy in patients with Parkinson's disease. Mov. Disord. 2006 (12):2127-33 Lauren H Craig, Anna Svircev, Michael Haber, Jorge L Juncos The objectives of this study is to examine the effects of neuromuscular therapy (NMT) on motor and nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). Thirty-six subjects with PD were randomly assigned to NMT or music relaxation (MR, or active control). Subjects received treatment twice a week for 4 weeks.

Randomized controlled trials of pediatric massage: a review. Evid Based Complement Alternat Med 2007 (1):23-34 Shay Beider, Christopher A Moyer The existing reviews of massage therapy (MT) research are either limited to infants, adults, or were conducted prior to the publication of the most recent studies using pediatric samples. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of pediatric MT are reviewed. A literature search yielded 24 RCTs of pediatric MT, defined as the manual manipulation of soft tissue intended to promote health and well-being in...read more
CONTEXT: Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) describes muscle pain and tenderness that typically develop several hours postexercise and consist of predominantly eccentric muscle actions, especially if the exercise is unfamiliar. Although DOMS is likely a symptom of eccentric-exercise-induced muscle damage, it does not necessarily reflect muscle damage. Some prophylactic or therapeutic modalities may be effective only for alleviating DOMS, whereas others may enhance recovery of muscle function without affecting DOMS. OBJECTIVE: To test the...read more
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the physiological and psychological effects of massage on delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). METHODS: Eighteen volunteers were randomly assigned to either a massage or control group. DOMS was induced with six sets of eight maximal eccentric contractions of the right hamstring, which were followed 2 h later by 20 min of massage or sham massage (control). Peak torque and mood were assessed at 2, 6, 24, and 48 h postexercise. Range of motion (ROM) and intensity and unpleasantness of...read more
Abstract Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) can be caused by novel or unaccustomed exercise and results in a temporary decrease in muscle force production, a rise in passive tension, increased muscle soreness and swelling, and an increase in intramuscular proteins in blood. Consequently, EIMD can have a profound effect on the ability to perform subsequent bouts of exercise and therefore adhere to an exercise training program. A variety of interventions have been used prophylactically and/or therapeutically in an attempt to reduce the...read more
Abstract The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of transverse friction massage (TFM) on flexor carpi radialis (FCR) motoneuron (MN) pool excitability. Twenty-eight healthy subjects were randomly assigned into massage and control groups. Pre- vs post-TFM H-reflex data were collected. Controls received a rest period instead of massage. Massage dose was standardized by a novel electronic method which recorded the massage rate, momentary pressure and total cumulative pressure (energy). Two-way ANOVA of H/M ratios derived from...read more
Cortisol decreases, serotonin and dopamine increase following massage therapy. Int J Neurosci. 2005 Oct;115(10):1397-413. Field T, Hernandez-Reif M, Diego M, Schanberg S, Kuhn C.

In studies in which cortisol was assayed either in saliva or in urine, significant decreases were noted in...read more

We have eaten at Capone's maybe fifty or sixty times over the last decade. This time, we ordered two items, the grouper sandwich and a pizza with three toppings-twice. Both times were equally disappointing on the second go. The fish was overdone, of poor quality, and freezer burnt. We only asked for the pizza to be more baked, but something else occurred in second baking that made the pizza sweet. With two alcoholic drinks this mess ran us sixty bucks.

I am a local, I love this place - its on the water, and the food kicks butt!! The servers there seem lost or confused half the time, and take forever to refill your drinks or bring you the pitcher of beer you ordered (this happiness often), so just plan ahead and order everything while they're standing at your table. If you can be patient then you will enjoy yourself - the food makes up for the speed :)

I went to Capone's one night with my boyfriend cause some friends recommended it.We sat in a nice table by the water and it was really beautiful.I got the burger and my boyfriend a pizza.Everything was really tasty,but my burger was too big for me to eat!!The service was good and especially our waitress really pleasant..Now, we visit Capone's once a week..

I usually don't waste my time writing reviews, but from my experience and boredness today I will. I was staying @ the Crowne Plaza for a weekend and was hungry one morning after having an adventurous night. I had gone to Le Tub since my friend recommended it. When I got there they told me that the wait would be an hour or more!(I was like for real!!?) A gentlemen that was eating there recommended going to Capone's stating that the time there was half of what I would wait there. I had a party of 9 and was served in less than 30min. Right next to the water. I ordered a deep fried black grouper n fried calamari. I usually dont order fried especially because I am studying nutrition but damn that grouper was awesome! The service was good, the waiter always w/a smile n eager. I would recommend this place for anything. They also got Tv's to watch the game n pool tables. Place doesnt look fancy from outside. But to me its all about the service n food.

I come down to our condo from Boston once per month and always make a stop at Flicker. We sit out on intercoastal have a few drinks and eat a pizza. The place is great.
Posted by Coop on 05/08/2011
I went the other day for lunch with my boyfriend after we heard they had great deep dish pizza. We ordered calamari to start which is my favorite and it was ok. I liked that is was fresh because it had tenticles but there was a lot of left over pieces of fried crumbs of nothing. It would of been better if the portion was a bit bigger. I also ordered the fish tacos. They usesd tilapia which was way too over seasoned, so salty! It only came with a small amount of lettuce tomatoes and guacamole. I had to ask for cheese which took forever to get and felt frozen when it arrived. ( they were not busy at all!) Nothing I would order again. Finally we ordered the large deep dish pizza with pepperorni. It tasted just like digiorno..i've never had it before so i thought it was going to be really good, esp. all the hype about it. It wasnt that crispy just really doughy. Oh yeah & we ordered some beers, the stella tasted like the tap was old and the waitress never asked to refill my beer just my boyfriends. The staff didnt seem to pleasant, our waitress was nice just slow. I guess I would go back for the outside atmosphere and to try some other appetizers but i prob wouldn't order any main dishes again.

Comments On Mar 26, 2015:It took about two rides to break them in, but now they are very comfortable. They have saved my knees from some pretty hard crashes. Inside pivot bolt can wear on your riding pants if you don't put something on it to provide some padding.

Comments On Aug 21, 2014:These are the finest pair of knee guards I have ever owned. The fit/sizing is accurate to the measurement instructions provided and the padding is very plush and comfortable. The neoprene wrap around closure creates a barrier between your skin and the three straps to avoid chaffing. These knee guards stay in place thanks to the three strap closure, with one on the thigh and two below the knee. have used them for three rides now and they were easy to adjust to quickly and they definitely feel like they provide a great deal of protection.

Comments On May 08, 2014:These knee guards fit well and stay in place well. They haven't been through a massive crash but I have no reason to doubt whether they will do the intended job.
Additional Comments On May 08, 2014:Also, they work well with my Tech 7 boots.

Comments On Jan 16, 2014:The knee guard is comfortable and well made, but Thor did not add padding to the pivot point of the knee guard and damages the side of your bike and rips your riding pants.

Comments On Oct 24, 2013:I have had these guards for 3 years. at first they dug in the back of my leg under my knee but after about 20 rides it stoped hurting and I have the leg sleves and they helped. after having them for 2 years the top strap broke. I still wear them and they still work the same. they slide down a little when I am just standing but for the most part my boots and pants keep them up. these guards have saved my knees way more than I can remember and I would total recommend them...... I have not tried a knee brace yet so im not comparing it to a brace.

Comments On Jul 31, 2013:I first used the RM knee measuring guide for knee guards/braces and so I ordered a set of these L/XL and wow they were way too big. Sent em back via RM's awesome customer service and got the S/M. Now, the problem is the velco enclosure flap is alittle too small on the bottom for the calf and the top is just fine. The straps themselves I have no problem with. Also, I do use knee socks so I don't have any problems with skin issues as most riders do. Moving on, I have tested these knee guards with two bad falls and have had no issues what so ever. I used to wear the cheap evs knee guards, but wanted something with more protection at a mid price point and a knee guard that wasn't too bulky and I found these to be the best thing out there. So, if your looking for a set of mid priced knee guards that get the job done, these Force Knee Guards are the choice. Hope this helps ya out.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - The heavy-hitting 16th-ranked Oregon State Beavers handed the New Mexico softball team its fourth consecutive loss with a 8-3 win in its second meeting at the Commercial Capital Early Bird Tournament hosted by UC Santa Barbara.
Errors plagued both teams early as each team allowed an unearned run in the first inning. But it in the second inning that the Beavers pulled away. Kelly Petersen doubled to left field, allowing Stephanie Wagoner and Sherina Galvan to score. Lisa Allen capped the inning with a homer to right field that brought in Petersen and Mia Longfellow.
The Lobos slowly chipped away at the 6-1 lead, putting up one run in the bottom of the second and fifth. In the second, sophomore Amy Ray doubled to right center, bringing home classmate Becky Dover. In the fifth, junior Cassie Chavez singled to short, knocking in classmate Kristina Schmallen.
OSU's Adrienne Alo and Brianne McGowan sealed the win, each hitting solo home runs to left center in the seventh.
Senior Ashley Perkins took the loss, throwing an 11-hit complete game, allowing four walks while striking out four. McGowan earned the win, tossing a complete game for seven hits and four strikeouts.
At the plate, Ray left the Lobos going 2-3 with a RBI. Allen was also 2-3 for the Beavers with three RBI and one run scored.

For a recently divorced couple, Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes sure don't mind spending time together. The Oscar-winning actress told The Daily Mail that she'll be bringing the kids back to the UK if her Oscar-winning ex directs the next James Bond movie as planned. "We'll all be in England if that happens. It's such a massive commitment for him and it's not fair for him to commute backwards and forwards to New York from London. It would be impossible. The children will be there with me." Wow! Most single mothers we know would probably say "his Bond movie, his problem," even if they were collecting Titanic residuals like she is.
Winslet offered more proof of her amicable relationship with the Revolutionary Road director in the interview, claiming she'd even be willing to work with him again. "I can see us working together again—that's the way it is. We're really good friends and have very good respect for each other. I can see it, but you'd have to ask Sam what he thinks." Bond movie, ex-wife willing to follow him over the Atlantic…we're guessing Sam thinks he has it pretty good.

To quote Neva Dinova's opening track from One Jug of Wine, Two Vessels, "I don't wanna say it, though I know that it's true, something you can't get past, something I can't past": Jake Bellows, the lead singer of Dinova kind of sounds like Ryan Gosling on his Dead Man's Bones album, but I mean that in a good way. Bellows has always impressed me with his vocal ability and continues to do so with the two new tracks he contributes to the album. Neva Dinova, unfortunately, are easily lost in the star-studded Omaha, Nebraska/Saddle Creek scene. When you think Saddle Creek, you more than likely think Bright Eyes, Rilo Kiley, The Faint, Cursive, or Land of Talk long before you think Neva Dinova, and that's frankly kind of sad. Neva Dinova deserve more praise than they get. Jake Bellows' unique vocal range is not only fascinating, but it's one of a kind. Their style as a band is quite unique itself. Most of their back catalogue spans a vast folk, psychedelic, and rock feel with a heavy alt-country vibe throughout.
So, with regards to Dinova, the re-release of this split will be very beneficial to them as far as publicity goes. This particular split is fairly unique in that it is more of a collaboration than it is a split. Bright Eyes members provide the backing music for Neva Dinova, and vice versa. Conor Oberst even went as far as to write the closing track, "Spring Cleaning" for Neva Dinova and lets Jake Bellows take the reins. Oberst has noted that the initial recordings for these sessions back in 2004 were his favorite to participate in.
The consistency of their old material versus their new material is very straightforward and illustrates that they have stayed relatively true to their sound since 2004. Their standout 2010 track on this split, "Rollerskating", demonstrates Bellows' vocals exactly the same as on their 2004 "Spring Cleaning" track. It is a sound that is tight and contagious, and the split demonstrates that well.
From Bright Eyes' perspective, they are not re-releasing it to get their name out there. They are a well established act with an extremely devoted following. But those familiar with Bright Eyes should not expect too much of the old from the two new tracks. Not that they aren't worth listening to, they're just not your average Bright Eyes. And as cool as it is to see that Bright Eyes isn't, in fact, dead (as has been the rumor), these tracks mark an apparent shift in Oberst's writing style.
He's been a busy man since we last heard from his Bright Eyes project. One release under his given name, another under Conor Oberst & The Mystic Valley Band, and another under Monsters of Folk. And he's also toured tirelessly for each of those albums. The affect those events have had on his songwriting are apparent on the two new tracks he debuts on this album. He bids farewell to the typical Bright Eyes sound and has embraced something closer to his Mystic Valley sound, for better or worse.
His four tracks on the album convey two different eras. Two brand new with the MVB alt-country sound, and the original two, the pre-I'm Wide Awake It's Morning tracks. To hear them together is strange, but interesting because there's such a stark contrast between the two. The tracks "I'll Be Your Friend" and "Black Comedy" show a more youthful approach with a heavy emphasis on lyricism, as was his style at the time, whereas the new "Happy Accident" and "I Know You" focuses more on the cohesive folk and country sound before lyrics.
In essence, there are two things to take from this re-release. First, is that Neva Dinova is actively taking a deserved large step forward to becoming a household name and should not be ignored. Their sound is one that is original and impressive and deserves delving into. The second thing is that Bright Eyes are back! This is only positive affirmation that they might indeed, be appearing at this summer's Lollapalooza.
It is worth a listen to hear from Neva Dinova and it brings a comforting nostalgia to hear another Bright Eyes track after so long. To close, I'll use another quote from the album. This time from Bright Eye's "I Know You", concerning whether or not you will love this split eternally: "Oh I know you want to, I just don't believe that you can."

Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
A kid-friendly time-share with mostly two-bedroom condos, featuring multiple pools and some good features -- but nothing on the level of a mega-resort
There are plenty of families with small children at this Marriott Vacation Club time-share in Poipu, where 231 of the 238 units are two-bedroom, condolike villas. Up until sunset, kids splash about in the multiple pools or haul boogie boards out to the surf, while parents and grandparents take a breather by the separate relaxation pool, the Jacuzzi, and the poolside bar.
Sharing an entrance with Koa Kea and Kiahuna Plantation, the Waiohai opens into a big complex of eight buildings surrounded by landscaped grounds with a pond, three pools, and a playground. There's a water-sports desk and a pool bar and grill -- but no full restaurant (just a convenience store/deli). And, instead of a full-on kids' club, you'll find just a game room. While there are more resort-level services here (poolside drink service, 24-hour front desk) and features (multiple pools) than at other time-share properties, they stop short of what you'd find at Kauai's other Marriott Vacation Club property, the mega-resort Kauai Marriott in Lihue, with its multiple restaurants and room service. If you're looking for more resort features, it's not hard to see the Sheraton Kauai as a better (and often cheaper) choice.
The Waiohai's villas underwent renovations, completed December 2009; each villa was equipped with new 42-inch, LG flat-screens, new carpeting, and the like. But even given this, they still seem a bit pricey compared to other Kauai condo resorts. The nearby Kiahuna Plantation properties (Castle and Outrigger) offer two-bedroom condos (albeit without air-conditioning) at considerably cheaper rates, on a prettier, tree-filled estate. The more luxurious Whalers Cove condos don't front a beach (and also feature fans instead of AC), but run about the same for a two-bedroom.
Concierge and 24-hour front desk, but no room service or valet parking
While there are some hotel-level services, such as a 24-hour front desk and poolside drink service, it stops short of what you'd see at a full-scale mega-resort like the Sheraton Kauai down the shore or the Waiohai's sister property, the Kauai Marriott in Lihue. While there's a concierge at the Waiohai, there's not much porter service. When I needed to store my luggage after checkout, the front-desk staff just handed me the key to the (unsupervised) luggage closet. At least the front desk moves guests quickly through check-in, and the poolside staff and concierge are equally attentive and efficient.
In resort-heavy Poipu, fronting Waiohai Beach
The Marriott Waiohai is located in Poipu, the south shore development that's one of Kauai's biggest resort areas. The town is known for its consistently sunny weather (versus the rainy north shore), picturesque, treelined streets -- and constant construction as developers add more condominiums and hotels to these former sugarcane fields. Just off Poipu Road, the town's main strip flanked by resorts on one side and the Poipu shopping mall on the other, Marriott Waiohai shares an entrance with the Koa Kea and the Kiahuna Plantation.
Two-bedroom villas and a few guest rooms -- spacious, but not super luxurious
Waiohai's two-bedroom, two-bath villas seem priced a little on the high side. At these rates, considerably more luxurious and bigger two-bedroom condos can be had at nearby Whalers Cove -- which has ceiling fans instead of air conditioning, but the panoramic ocean views from private lanais can't be beaten. For even lower rates, you can try nearby Outrigger or Castle Kiahuna Plantation, also with fans instead of AC -- but with many more features (tennis courts, three fantastic restaurants). The Waiohai's seven guest rooms, although accommodating considerably fewer guests, are more in line with the rates offered for similar rooms at the Sheraton Kauai just down the beach.
Decent number of features for a time-share
Compared with many other time-share/ownership properties -- (Whalers Cove, Kauai Coast, Castle Kaha Lani) -- the Waiohai offers an impressive number of features, including a 24-hour fitness center and three pools (one just for kids). But it doesn't offer the full restaurants that the next-door Kiahuna Plantation properties do (although it has a better pool), and the features can't compare to those at the pricier Westin Princeville on the north shore, with its expansive kids' club, 24-hour business center, and four pools.
Borders a beach with big waves for surfers, and a sandy stretch for kids
Although right next to the Kiahuna Plantation and the Koa Kea resorts, the Marriott Waiohai fronts an area of beach with slightly different conditions.
Great choice for families: three pools and two-bedroom villas with kitchens
Plenty of families book at the Marriott Waiohai, and for good reason: The two-bedroom, two-bath villas accommodate up to eight (although it seems a tight squeeze at 1,170 square feet) and come with fully equipped kitchens with dishwashers and washer and dryers. Though there isn't a supervised kids' club, there are amenities here to keep little ones busy. The Waiohai's pools seem particularly geared toward families (with a kids' pool and a separate relaxation pool for parents on a break), and there's an on-site game room and playground. The beach and pools do not have a lifeguard -- but this is not uncommon on Kauai.
With no on-site restaurants short of a pool grill (open only for lunch) and a convenience store/deli with affordable prices but so-so food, the two main options at Waiohai remain either eating out or cooking in the kitchen of your villa (provided you have rented that instead of one of the kitchenless guest rooms). There's a lot of incentive to cook in -- with the exception of a few local take-out spots, Poipu dining revolves around a pricey cluster of resort restaurants at the Grand Hyatt and Kiahuna Plantation.
Located next to the Kiahuna Plantation and Koa Kea, this 238-room Poipu resort offers huge two-bedroom villas with kitchens, three great pools, and a 24-hour fitness center, but there's no full restaurant and you can find more luxurious units on Kauai for a similar price.

Please register and login to be able to post in this message board.
Writers...finally we have some decent writing!!!
Quote vyvan: Writers...finally we have some decent writing!!!
It was beautiful to watch the magic that is SHICK!!! They sizzle every time!!we loved it!!!
Nick has been with so many ...but the SHICK pairing is true love and just beautiful!!! Bring on more SHICK scenes!!,
Having not watched for quite sometime, are they really reuniting Shick, or are they going to get them just close enough to destroy them and Sharon again? I cannot be bothered to watch the make a mockery out of Sharon and Shick like they have for years now. But if they are truly reuniting them and doing it right, I'd tune in again.
oh no.. they are throwing out another shick bone.. all for sharon and her lies to be exposed.. no doubt... all the spoilers even say how sharon is worried about her lies coming to light.. she knows Nick won't forgive this..
I suppose if you are a Shick fan anytime they are shown together is awesome. I am no Shick fan but, even I, was looking forward to what they were going to be doing with them. It sure wasn't awesome. Any chemistry these two had is completely flat now. Sorry Shickers, most of you must have been pretty disappointed. Sharon needs to drop her obsession and spend more time on the dr's couch.
It was nice to see Shick in scenes again. They still have that great Shick magic to me.The flash back scenes were smoking hot! I believe that this is done to set them up to be a happy couple but later on to cause angst when Sharon's secret comes to light.It will probably be Feburary sweeps that Phyllis will wake up and then the proverbial sh*t will hit the fan!It was nice to see Sharon and Nick so happy in the previews for today's Canada show.I love to see her laugh!
Shick's reunion has a big fat cloud over them.. we know she is going to get busted as soon as they are in a good place and then we all know how Nick will treat her.. he will berate her and scold her like she is his child. Any chemistry this pair used to have is so long gone..
I'm spoiled to the Villy chemistry, all I can feel is the cloud, but Shick is meant to be, would be nice if they could bring them back.
i tuned in for the 2 days they were on and i wasn't disappointed at all. i love watching shick....
For all the people who don't think Shick has any chemistry anymore there are just as many that think they do!! I wouldn't expect fans of Phick to ever say they thought Shick has chemistry. I know a lot think that they are trying to put a nail in the coffin that is Shick, but that is not what I am seeing playing out on my screen. Shick is definitely getting closer. When the reveal happens it is going to be a MAJOR problem for Shick, but who is to say it is not just going to be angst with Nick eventually forgiving her. Look at Billy and Victoria. When Victoria found out all the things that Billy has done, it caused problems but they are still together. Shick as a lot of fans and if the ratings go up when they are together, they may stay together. The truth is, it is about ratings with the writers and Shick still have a very BIG fan base as much as people don't want to believe it. Of course this is certainly my opinion and only the writers know what they will do. Everyone has their favorites!!
I am not what you would call a Phick fan, although I do think they were a far happier couple. I am not a Phick fan because I have no desire to see them back together. The reason I don't like Nick and Sharon is because they are just done, they look good standing together but Nick is not in love with her and hasn't been in love with her for many years. Not liking Shick has nothing to do with Phyllis for most anti Shicks.

Young achiever: Blind teenager 'humbled' by honour
Posted: September 01, 2014|
Anna Lodwick may be registered blind but she did not let that hold her back from achieving her goals.
The teenager worked hard on her A-levels at Wyggeston and Queen Elizabeth I College, in Leicester, gaining a host of A grades at AS-level.
Not only that, she worked towards her bronze and silver Duke of Edinburgh Awards.
It was this determined attitude which impressed the judges in last year's Young Achiever Awards, clinching her the A-level achievement category.
Speaking at the award ceremony, Anna said she was "amazed" and "very humbled".
The Leicester Mercury is looking for nominations of outstanding people like Anna in this year's Young Achiever Awards in the A-level category.
Leicester Grammar School is sponsoring the award, alongside overall sponsor, Fullhurst Community College.
Christopher King, head of Leicester Grammar School, said: "We're proud to be sponsoring the A-level achievement Award again.
"The pursuit of a place at university or the entry qualification to a chosen career path often involves single-minded application of an individual's talent to the task of gaining the best possible grades.
"Making the most of one's abilities, perhaps in the process overcoming personal adversity, deserves to be recognised.
"Deserving pupils may have shown high-level achievement against their academic potential but also how they have involved themselves in the subjects studied and perhaps further engaged with them on leaving school.
"They may have run a society within their school linked to A-level subjects or attended courses to deepen their knowledge to a relevant topic.
"Many students achieve superb results – perhaps against adversity – and we will be looking for those with the best grades as well as involvement around their academic studies.
"We are looking for pupils who seek, as we set out to do at Leicester Grammar School, to be the best they can possibly be."
We are asking schools, organisations and individuals to nominate people aged between 14 and 25 who are worthy of recognition due to their efforts. The winners of the 10 categories will be announced at a ceremony on December 4 at Leicester City's King Power Stadium.
Each will receive £250 and a trophy. Two category runners-up will receive £50 each and a certificate of merit.
Capital FM presenters Dino and Pete will again be hosting the ceremony.
A spokesman for the pair said: "Dino and Pete are immensely proud to be the hosts of the Leicester Mercury Young Achiever Awards again this year.
"The achievements of the students is mind-blowing, considering the obstacles some have had to overcome. We can't wait to be a part of this year's event."
The closing date is Sunday, October 19.

Why two expert financial analysts agree less, in their predictions, than two astrologers?
I have been asking the same question for the past 5 years (at least). I heard someone copying my phrase, but without mentioning the astrologers thing. Probably he believed in stars or he was making good money by it. (LOL)
The way the global and local economies are going, make the importance of proper financial analysis more crucial than ever. Yet we see, mainly local financial analysts, debating about local and global financial issues. In addition they are coming up with conclusions totally different with each other. How can we explain this?

Jason Kokrak fired a 5-over-par 76 in the first round of the NCAA Central Regional.
May 18, 2006
CHARDON, Ohio - Sophomore Andy Connell and junior Jason Kokrak each carded a 5-over-par 76 on Thursday morning to lead the Xavier University men's golf team in round one of the NCAA Central Regional on the par-71, 7,173-yard Sand Ridge Golf Club. As a team, XU carded a 23-over-par 307 as the Musketeers battled through a constant wind and driving rain through the first 10 holes of the opening round. Xavier is in 23rd place after the first round while Oklahoma State leads the field at 4-under-par (280).
Xavier weathered the storm through the front nine with an 8-over-par as a team, but the Musketeers struggled mightily on the back nine at 15-over-par to finish at 23-over.
Kokrak's round of 76 came on the strength of a 37 on the front nine and a 39 on the back side. Connell carded a 76 (+5) including a birdie on the par-3, No. 4. John Streibich fired a 77 (+6) and led Xavier in birdies with two on the day.
Freshman Mike Beausejour turned in a 7-over-par 78 for the final counting score for Xavier while Andy Pope carded a 79 (+8).
The Musketeers will look to rebound in the second round on Friday, May 19, as XU will tee off at 12:12 p.m.

Campbell Social Science Research Prizes awarded
The 2007 Campbell Social Science Research Prizes, which honor the memory of distinguished social research scientist Donald T. Campbell and recognize outstanding social science research conducted by Lehigh students, were recently announced.
Victoria Federico '07, an
international relations
major from Ramsey, N.J., won the undergraduate award for her work titled "The Curse of Natural Resources and Human Development." Federico's paper extends the established finding in the field of international political economics that natural resource abundance negatively impacts economic growth, and expands on this "resource curse" literature.
Federio focuses on the negative relationship between resource abundance and human development concerns such as poverty, education and health and investigates the capacity and disposition of a state's institutions to foster human welfare, and how resource abundance affects those aspects of institutions.
Detailed case studies on diamond-rich countries Sierra Leone and Botswana were included to provide greater insight into the relationship between resource abundance, state institutions and human development.
Bruce Moon, professor of international relations, was the faculty advisor on this project.
Two other finalists were named in the undergraduate competition:
Rachel A. Sansanelli '07, a
major from Hillsborough, N.J., was recognized for her paper, "Maternal Personality, Child Temperament, and Goodness-of-Fit: Implications for Dyadic Communication Quality during a Reminiscing Task." Faculty advisor for this project was Deborah Laible, assistant professor of psychology.
Marisa Enrico '07, a psychology major from Toms River, N.J., was recognized for her study titled "Campus Rape Culture: Environmental Context and Personality as Predictors of Rape Myth Acceptance." She examined how environmental context and personality factors influence rape myth acceptance among students. The faculty advisor on this project was Diane Hyland, professor and chair of psychology, and director of the Center for Social Research.
In the graduate-level competition, Michael Andreychik, a graduate student in psychology from Moscow, Pa., was cited for his paper "Social Explanatory Style as a Foundation of Social Orientation" He was advised by Michael Gill, associate professor of psychology.
Andreychik's work examines the notion that people's social explanations—the explanatory frameworks they use to make sense of others' behaviors and outcomes—are intimately tied to their social orientations, and to the extent to which they demonstrate tendencies such as empathy, forgiveness and a rejection of punitiveness.
More specifically, the central argument of his paper is that social explanations can vary along a number of dimensions, and where a person's explanations characteristically fall on these dimensions has important implications for her social emotions, cognitions and behaviors.
The other finalist in the graduate level of the competition was Zane Kratzer, a grad student in sociology from Bethlehem, Pa., who conducted a research project and analysis to attempt to define the issue of gentrification and its relevance to development policy for South Bethlehem.
His advisor on that project, titled "Assessing Housing Market Pressure: A Resident Survey of South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania," was Judith Lasker, NEH Distinguished Professor of Sociology.
Al Wurth
, associate professor of political science and chair of the 2007 Campbell Prize Committee, offered congratulations to all of the competitions' participants.
"Many fine papers were submitted to the competition this year, and all of the students should be congratulated for their excellent work," Wurth says. "It's a difficult limitation for the committee that only one prize could be awarded in each category."
The award-winning papers of the winners, which will be published by the online Journal of Student Award Winners (JSAW), can be accessed from the
Campbell Prize website
. Each of the winners will receive a prize of $500.
The Donald T. Campbell Social Science Research Prizes honors the memory of the late Donald T. Campbell, who was University Professor of Social Relations, Psychology, and Education at Lehigh University until he retired in 1994. Campbell, who received his A.B. and Ph.D. from the University of California at Berkeley, was a distinguished social scientist who held teaching positions at Northwestern University, Syracuse University, University of Chicago and Ohio State University, and lectured around the world at universities such as Oxford, Harvard and Yale.
Campbell served as president of the American Psychological Association and was a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Throughout his career, he wrote more than 235 articles in the areas of social psychology, sociology, anthropology, education and philosophy, and has received numerous honors, including the APA's Distinguished Scientific Contribution Award, the Kurt Lewin Memorial Award of the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues and the William James Lectureship at Harvard University.
At least 17 books have been dedicated to him by his colleagues.

Juan Zuniga looks to be moving further and further away from Napoli, after failing to respond to a contract offer.
The Partenopei had offered the defender a new deal worth €3.6m per season, according to respected journalist Alfredo Pedulla.
Rafa Benitez's men were hopeful that the Colombia international would sign an extension before tomorrow's game against Borussia Dortmund.
However, that will not be the case.
Zuniga had looked, at one point, close to a new contract at Stadio San Paolo. That though, is looking less and less likely.
His deal at Napoli ends next summer, with Juventus reportedly keen on signing the wing-back on a Bosman next year.

Weird question about iPod hard drive
I have a 4G 20GB iPod and the one year warranty has passed. I've been having problems with the hard drive in my iPod.
At random times the iPod would just freeze and when I restarted the iPod, sometimes it restarted just fine but there were other times when the sad face icon appeared. When this happened, there usually wasn't any sound coming from the hard drive, as if it was dead. This happened on and off for a couple months; sometimes it would go for a couple weeks without freezing. But eventually, it froze one day and nothing I could do would get it to start working again. I thought the hard drive was dead for sure...
I was about to send it to Apple to get it fixed but I realized it wasn't covered by the one-year warranty anymore and I did not want to pay the out-of-warranty price. So I decided to just open it up for some reason. Before opening it, I tried turning it on, and the sad face popped up. So then I opened it, lifted the hard drive up at one end, turned off the hold switch and it started making the normal spinning noise and the iPod started working again.
That lasted about a week and the freezing started happening again. But whenever the hard drive seems to die, I open the iPod, lift up the hard drive, turn it on and it starts working again...
I have no idea how that works but it has worked every single time.
Can anybody tell me why lifting up the hard drive fixes this problem? And is there possibly a way to permanently fix it so i don't have to open it up all the time?
Perhaps the connectors to the harddrive are not aligned properly?
hold menu and select and reset the entire application. my mini sometimes freezes up and i do that and its fine. also if its cold for a while...ie leave it in the car. IT will get a lil laggy in processes. But resetting DOES NOT delete songs if your worried about that. Call Apple and see what they say. they may or may not replace it if it is technical problems
woah, i would like to know how to open up an ipod, im gonna look through this section a bit and maybe ill find something. but i was curious, what kind of harddrive do they use? and can you just put a new one in?
just a note, its dangerous to open your ipod, you can puncture something or scratch your ipod, and i believe it voids your warranty.
yeah its been over a year anyways. im not gonna do it now, ill wait till it fucl<s up. thanks for your concern though, got any tips for openin' it?
Thin guitar picks
I'm not exactly sure what kind of hard drive they use but you can get replacement kits and put a new one in yourself.
And if anybody really wants to know...I used a guitar pick to open it. I put it in the crack at the top, slid down the left side and after that it was easy to pull the two parts apart. But just incase you do open it, be really careful when pulling the two parts away from each other cause there is a small cable thing connected from the front to the back.
That's for a 4G iPod...
ok. nice, thanks, yeah my warranty is already up anways i think, its only a year right? cos i didnt get it extended, i was mostly just curious and may wanna open it in the future.
If you look into Macaddict or MacWorld Magazine, you can find places that do overnight shipping and repair on ipods. basically get a new ipod in your old case for $99 and up. if i had a big problem with mine after the warranty went up id deffintaly do it.

Cicadageddon Is Officially Underway
Categories: Animals, Environment
|Bzzzzzzzzz Run for your lives!!! Becuase there are cicadas.
The Associated Press said yesterday we may be dealing with not millions, but billions of these things. (Daily RFT puts the figure closer to "bajillions").
Last night, Roche Madden over at Fox2Now - KTVI reported that cicadas have begun to "swarm" at least one house in Arnold, and that human citizens are swarming toward Home Depot, freaking out about it.
Well, not everyone's freaking out. Like the kid in this segment, who Madden says is "examining" the insects with a stick -- but who is actually murdering them with a stick.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch ups the ante even further by adding two more little buggers we need to worry about this summer: ticks and mosquitoes! Global warming, writes Harry Jackson Jr., has made conditions perfect for them. But Jackson is refreshingly sensible about cicadas. They're "harmless," he says, not to mention good eatin': "The females are silent and deliciously full of fats and nutrients," while the males are "hollow and crunchy." OK...Jackson, too, has gone insane.

Seeing snow fall on my home mountain the past few days got me thinking about the transition I have made throughout the course of the Winter Season. I went from being a relative newbie, to a Park City local who calls Park City Mountain Resort their home mountain. Once you begin calling a resort your "home mountain", your view on the people who work there and the events the mountain puts on begins to change. For me, this change was a huge sense of pride in my team members and the memories they helped me create on and off the mountain. I wanted to take this chance to highlight some people and departments who deserve a huge congratulations as well as some events that made me want to be a "local".
Jim Steinmetz receiving the RMLA award for Lift Maintenance Person of the Year.
A few weeks ago we found out that Jim Steinmetz had been selected by Rocky Mountain Lift Association as Lift Maintenance Person of the Year. This past weekend he was presented with the award at the annual Rocky Mountain Lift Association conference. As you can see by the photo above, Jim was a very happy man accepting this award and we could not think of anyone more deserving. Jim is the first mechanic in the state of Utah to receive this honor! Thank you Jim Steinmetz for the 37 years of continued service to Park City Mountain Resort and congratulations on this distinguished award.
At the Season year-end party our President and General Manger, Jenni Smith, introduced the 2010-2011 Peak Performer of the Year - Liisa Eikenberry. Since starting at Park City Mountain Resort in 2001, Liisa has become the "mom" of the Rental shop. If there is anything that is needed by anyone not only in Rentals but throughout PCMR, Liisa is always the first one to step up and offer her help. Liisa never stops speaking with pride and joy of Park City Mountain Resort and its Team Members. She always shows up to work smiling with her "magic bag" and her warmth adds to everyone's day.
Liisa is married to husband Dennis and has two children. Colin, who also works in Rentals and as a Volunteer Patroller and their daughter Lauren is a Full-Time Ski Instructor and a part-time rental Technician. If you know Liisa, then you know what she brings to this resort. If you don't happen to know yet, then please head to the rental shop and say hi and congratulate her on her tremendous achievement and you will make a new friend for life
Our lifties took home an award of their own. For the second year in a row, our lifts department beat Deer Valley and Canyons to be crowned champions of the Wasatch Backside Lifty Invitational. Press play on the video above to see what this event is all about.
This year we held the Big Mountain Battle to see what team could navigate the mountain the fastest. The race included a hike to the peak, which many competitors noted as the most challenging checkpoint. With categories for young and old, this event was not only fun, but really challenged our locals to discover our mountain in a whole new light.
The Town Race Series returned this season much to the delight of local Parkites. A long standing tradition was both renewed and introduced to a younger crop of skiers and boarders.

Samantha is new to Utah, joining the Park City Mountain Resort team in 2011 as the Marketing Coordinator.

Bolivia's state-owned airline Boliviana de Aviacion (BoA) plans to acquire four Xian Aircraft MA60 turboprops.
The airline announced this at a ceremony earlier this week where it inaugurated a new domestic route from La Paz to Trinidad, operated with Boeing 737-300 aircraft.
Bolivian president Evo Morales said during the ceremony that the aircraft will be delivered by mid-2014.
A BoA source tells Flightglobal that the aircraft are MA60s, which Bolivia's civil transport military airline, Transportes Aereos Militares, already operates.
BoA also plans to renew the 737s in its fleet, adds the source. It is not clear if they will be replaced by 737s or another type.

NM Pension Fund Improves
By KRWG News
New Mexico – The administrator of a government worker pension fund says there's no need to increase payroll contribution rates to shore up the program because of investment losses over the past year.
Terry Slattery, executive director of the Public Employees Retirement Association of New Mexico, made the comment to legislators on Wednesday in outlining how the pension fund was rebounding as financial markets improved.
PERA returned almost 11.9 percent during the quarter that ended on June 30. The pension fund's assets were valued at nearly $9.1 billion at midyear, a quarterly gain of $870 million.
However, the fund has suffered double-digit investment losses during the past year. The fund's asset value is down $3 billion or almost 26 percent since mid-2008.

Raposa named new associate dean of CAS undergraduate programs
Michael Raposa
Michael L. Raposa
, professor of religion studies and E.W. Fairchild Chair in American Studies, was recently named the new associate dean for undergraduate programs in the College of Arts and Sciences. Raposa will officially assume the new post Jan. 1, 2006.
He will replace interim associate dean Bill Newman, professor emeritus of psychology, who served in the position vacated by former associate dean Carl Moses, who was named deputy provost for academic programs for the university this past summer.
In his new role in Lehigh's
College of Arts and Sciences
, Raposa will have responsibility for oversight and strategic planning to sustain the quality and competitiveness of the college's undergraduate programs. He will also serve as the college's primary liaison to the Office of Admissions and the Office of Student Life, as well as take an active role in the review of the first-year experience for undergraduates. In addition, he will continue to provide oversight and support for undergraduate advising in the college.
"Michael is passionate about the value of a liberal education in the arts and sciences," said College of Arts and Sciences Dean Anne Meltzer in announcing Raposa's appointment. "His experience and perspective will be a real asset in advancing our undergraduate programs. We're fortunate to have him join us in the Dean's Office."
Raposa joined the department of religion studies at Lehigh in 1985 after teaching for four years at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Conn. His primary research and teaching interests fall within the areas of modern western religious thought and the philosophy of religion, and he regularly teaches courses in the philosophy of religion, contemporary theology, Roman Catholic studies, American religious history, and the relationship between religion and science
His first book, published in 1989, explored the religious dimension of Charles S. Peirce's philosophy. In 1999, he published a book on the religious significance of boredom, its importance as both a threat and a stimulus to the spiritual life. His third book,
Meditation and the Martial Arts
, which was published by the University of Virginia Press in 2003, was devoted to the relationship between the meditative aspect of certain martial exercises and the martial character of certain classical forms of spirituality. He is currently working on a book titled
, which deals with basic issues in theological method.
Born in Westport, Mass., Raposa received his undergraduate education at Yale University. After a year of graduate study at the University of Toronto, he returned to Yale and completed his master's degree at the Divinity School there. In 1979, he entered the doctoral program in Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned his Ph.D. in 1987.
An ardent supporter of Lehigh's athletic programs, Raposa has a particular interest in basketball and cross-country running. He is an accomplished long-distance runner who has competed in several races, as well as a student of the martial arts since 1988, with a special interest in the Japanese art of aikido and the Chinese discipline of tai chi chuan.

I've been on a mango kick lately. They're beautiful and cheap at my grocery store right now and I can't seem to get enough. I enjoy mangoes mostly on their own or in a smoothie, but a mango crisp recipe has been brewing in the back of my mind for months. When a box of mangoes landed on my doorstep, pushing my household mango supply over the edge, I knew it was time to give one a try.
Rhubarb Ricotta Crisp
Right now I'm lying on the couch, in between naps, willing our little boy to make his grand entrance. I'm not sure it's working.
While yesterday was productive, filled with grocery shopping and cleaning and organizing, it's all I can do to just stay awake today. Thankfully I have one of the easiest recipes to share with you. One thing I will say about pregnancy is that it has inspired some amazing desserts, and this is one of them, a simple rhubarb crisp with sweetened ricotta baked right in.
Baking Outside the Kitchen: Easy Dutch Oven Cobbler
Boxed cake mix? Whipped cream in a can? These are things that I almost never use, almost never buy, and almost never even think about. But there is a time and a place for everything. This is hands down one of the easiest desserts you will ever throw together.
It requires only five ingredients— cake mix, lemon-lime soda, butter, and fruit. I've made this cobbler a hundred different ways with all kinds of fruit and you can't go wrong. Pick your favorite, what's in season, or what you happen to have on hand. This time I chose strawberries and blueberries, a winning combination.
Now the next thing you're going to need to have is a cast iron camp dutch oven. This recipe would of course work well in a standard baking dish in your oven, but since this is part of my series Baking Outside the Kitchen, I want to show you how to bake a cobbler outdoors. And the easiest way to do that is with a camp dutch oven.
Here in Utah we're pretty serious about our dutch oven cooking. It's all over the place, from camp grounds to carnivals. It's even the "state cooking pot" of Utah (thank you Wikipedia), probably because of our rich pioneer heritage. If you don't have a camp dutch oven or aren't very familiar with them, I encourage you to look into getting one. They're a lot of fun and you can cook just about anything with it.
So how does a dutch oven work? Well, let me give a brief explanation for those that need it. After prepping your dish, you cover the pot with a heavy cast iron lid. It's then placed on top of hot coals to heat from below and more coals are placed on the lid to heat from above. And voila, you have an oven!
Let's get back to the recipe, shall we?
Like I said, it's super easy. The fruit goes down in the bottom of the pot and the topping is made with cake mix and lemon-lime soda. As if a cake from a box isn't simple enough, this is even lazier. But it works! And if you're baking this away from your home it's nice to need even fewer ingredients.
After spooning the dough over the fruit, a few dabs of butter and sprinkling of sugar help create a flavorful and nice golden brown cobbler topping. And then it ready to bake! It needs only about twenty minutes in the dutch oven and when you can start smelling the fragrance of baked fruit, you know you're about there.
This is my go-to dessert while we're camping since it requires only a few simple ingredients and is so simple to put together. Plus, in my opinion it's as good as cobbler made with ingredients from scratch. And it's hard to resist something so yummy that you can enjoy anywhere, and doesn't require turning on the oven on a hot summer day.

Sept. 16, 2010
BEAUMONT, Texas -
The Lamar University men's and women's cross country teams will compete in their second race of the year when they take part in the Rice Invitational in Houston on Friday.
The 4K women's race is set for 6:45 p.m., with the 5K men's race getting under way at 7:05 p.m. Both events will be held on Rice's intramural fields.
The Lamar men are coming off an impressive victory in their first meet of the season, capturing the Johnny Morriss Invitational at the University of Houston on Sept. 3. Lamar's Tallum Kipruto was the top finisher in that race, covering the 4,750-meter course in 14 minutes, 46.25 seconds. The Cardinals had all five of their runners in the top 16.
The LU women finished third. Lamar was led by freshman Katrine Vaesel, who was sixth in 11:34.08 for 3,133 meters.
"We're looking to have another strong race," Lamar cross country coach Jake Stewart said. "Our main focus is getting ready for the season ahead and being ready for the Southland Conference meet and the regionals."
Following Friday's race, Lamar will be idle until Oct. 2 when it competes in the Charles Bowles Invitational in Salem, Ore.

All available from an NBC site, rather than iTunes.
Now while this two-tier plan is long how I've predicted TV would shake out (me and several hundred other people; it's not a particularly original notion) I'm not sure why NBC didn't just do this through iTunes.
I've read that they had a conflict with iTunes over the wholesale price of the shows, but absent any real information on that, I can only give you my reaction as a consumer who has downloaded NBC shows off iTunes in the past. And that's minor annoyance. While I'll probably track down the NBC site so I can download stray episodes here and there (provided they make it Mac compatible), the inconvenience of having to go to another site to download something that I then have to transfer back to iTunes may make getting last week's episode of The Office more hassle than it's worth. A lot will depend on how easy it is to use NBC's download site, which promises offer auto-downloading season passes as well as individual downloads.
On the other hand, saving the $1.99 for something I can all but guarantee you I'll only watch once may well be worth the hassle. I especially like the part about self-destructing, since TV shows tend to eat up a huge amount of space on your hard drive, and shifting them to an external storage drive is a real bother.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out, if NBC manages to break iTunes' monopoly on TV downloads or if consumers decide it's just not worth the hassle. Those of us who make TV commercials for a living should be hoping for their success though: free TV shows with commercials embedded in them will keep us in business a bit longer.

One of the accusations often leveled at Apple over the years is that anything over the basic model often costs an arm and a leg. The cost of an essential item like Office or Photoshop was so expensive that many would rather hunt up a dodgy copy rather than forking out hundreds of dollars to Apple for the privilege of using the original. Things have changed dramatically in recent times however - seemingly due to the immense popularity of iPhone and iPad devices. Nowadays, there are a heap of different Office styled apps available for iOS as well as its ... Read more
I'm sure most of us have been in a position where we have had to send an online document or a photo to someone in a hurry. It could be a multi-page contract, a map or an essay. It wouldn't be easy but, i guess you could take a photo of it with your phone camera but its a bit of a pain and not everyone has a smartphone. God help you if you have to convert it into a PDF or something. What you really need is a scanner that you could carry around with you. Sendable is a ... Read more
Don't panic, MinaGrey is not the follow up to Fifty Shades of Grey! It's far more worthy to me than that poorly written piece of fluff. Let me just say from the outset here. This free, art and writing application is unlike any other app that we've seen before here at the FeedMyApp offices. I guess the best way to describe it is would be as a non-commercial artistic and creative community where musicians, artists, writers and scientists can freely share ideas, concepts and their artistic skills with the rest of the world. It's a social network - run by ... Read more
You might have seen a review that FeedMyApp posted recently for an app called BooksTo.Me. In it, it was mentioned how posting daily Instagram photos has become the new diary for many people and how it was a convenient way of documenting your life. The diary concept has all but disappeared for many these days, but with so many popular online versions available as well as the plethora of personal blogs and journals, it's obvious that many have a hankering to document their daily activities. But anyone who writes on a daily basis will know that the hardest sentence to ... Read more

There is a big difference, however, between Streem Drive and other cloud-based storage apps. Not only does it take up ... Read more
The scanner really hasn't been utilized as well as it could as a legitimate piece of business software. We tend to use them as a peripheral device and rarely as a vital part of everyday business life. But if you are still using a lot of paper documents - whether it be receipts, invoices, bank statements, lecture notes or even the odd recipe that you want to keep for later use - its a hell of a lot easier to keep track of them if you can get your hands on a decent scanning app with some organizing abilities. Smart ... Read more
It wasn't that long ago when email marketing was lumped in with the dreaded 'spam' word and was something to be avoided. It had its brief day in the sun but it became obvious that blanket emailing was largely a waste of time and money and better results would come from a much more targeted audience and a marketing campaign that can be tracked and analyzed. Acumbamail is a new email marketing and tracking application that makes it simple and cheap to manage a fully customized email campaign and get stats and analysis galore to track how well it is ...

If you are trying to market and promote a brand or a product (or yourself, if it comes to that) then, the chances are, you will have social media pages, blogs, videos, eBooks and more - all working for you. The main problem here though, is that these individual advertising areas are spread all over the Internet. You run the risk of your viewers getting distracted by other content when you send them to places like YouTube to view your content. Uberflip is a marketing and publishing application that centralizes all your content into one all-encompassing Hub to keep your ... Read more
It has always left me totally flummoxed that it costs such a lot to produce true legal documents. Wills are probably the most perplexing. I've never quite worked out why such a small piece of paper can cost so much and, one has to wonder, is this a fiendish plot by lawyers who are trying to hold on to a nice little cash cow for themselves. LawDeal is a new and totally free legal document creator that puts a dent into legal fees by letting you create your own legal forms quickly and easily. Have you ever needed to ... Read more

RENO, Nev. (March 1)-The New Mexico State men's basketball team's five-game win streak was snapped at Nevada, 65-61.
Redshirt senior forward Wendell McKines led the Aggies (22-9, 9-4) with 19 points and 13 rebounds for his 17th double-double of the season and 44th of his career. Senior guard Hernst Laroche had 12 points and five assists, while freshman guard Daniel Mullings supplied 10 points and seven rebounds.

The NM State offense stalled and went over nine minutes without a field goal. Three free throws from Laroche and a 3-pointer from McKines brought the Aggies within 59-54 at 3:46.
Then a Sy 3-pointer and fast break dunk cut Nevada's lead to four, 63-59, with 2:23 to play. After two defensive stops, a dunk from Mullings pulled the Aggies within two, 63-61 with 56 seconds to play.
