Vintage Wedding Invitations and Invites
Vintage Wedding Invitations
Look no further than the timeless collection of vintage wedding invitations at Love vs Design. While all aspects of a wedding are a reflection of the bride and groom, your wedding invitations are a beautiful representation of your own style and personality.
What our customers say about our unique wedding invitations
Lovely Wedding Invitations
Love vs Design provides an excellent service. We were in a real rush and were ordering wedding invitations from Dubai. Plus we wanted bilingual invitations which was a challenge for the designer I'm sure, but it was all done in two rounds of proofs. Their customer service team was so helpful and responsive. They rushed our wedding invitations and we had them within 5 days of making contact with them! We're delighted with them, they're just lovely. I would highly recommend Love Vs. Design for your wedding invites.
Thrilled with the outcome
My future husband and I worked with Love vs Design for our wedding invitations and we could not be more thrilled with the outcome. Their customer service staff was responsive, extremely nice, and so willing to work with me and my OCD bridal needs on every round of proofs! We are completely in love with Love vs. Design, and we highly recommend them!!
Please note, all of our printed wedding invitations have moved over to our Etsy Shop and they can be only be purchased there.

Four weeks later it returned, the achievement that required players to spend $3.00 replaced with one revolving around coins earned in-game, and now Windows Phone 7 players can enjoy this challenging puzzler without paying to collect all 200 Gamerscore points.
This is fortunate, for Monster Island is truly an excellent entry in the throwing things at other things category. Players step into the claws, paw and tentacles of a number of colorful creatures as they fling bombs, glue, rocks and other portable instruments of destruction in an effort to clear each of the game's 252 levels of enemy monsters.
Unlike Angry Birds, Monster Island isn't about widespread destruction. This is a game that focuses on precision aiming and clever Rube Goldberg-esque puzzles, challenging the player at every turn. Simple bomb tossing quickly evolves into a more complicated juggling act, requiring a steady aim and expert timing.
The only downside I could find to the blazing-fast physics puzzler is that each island features far too many levels. Where other games give you 20 to 30 stages in a given environment, Monster Island packs 65 in the first island alone, which isn't particularly friendly to players like me that uses stages as stopping points.
Still, Monster Island is definitely one of the better titles available for Windows Phone 7 (and iPhone). Not convinced? Head over to Miniclip.com, where a Flash version of the game is available for your bomb-flinging enjoyment.

Some north country schools earned an A+ while others barely mustered a passing grade in the latest edition of an annual report that ranks upstate New York public school districts.
Area school superintendents are still absorbing the report, which is assembled yearly by Buffalo Business First, and looks at 429 school districts statewide.
Rankings are based primarily on test scores, but the economic health of the area, experience of teachers, fiscal responsibility and other factors also are taken into account.
The publication looked at 33 districts in the Watertown area, which it defined as encompassing Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties.
The Potsdam Central School District earned the highest marks in the region and ranked 43rd overall among all upstate New York districts.
Canton was ranked 75th, Colton-Pierrepont 121st and Parishville-Hopkinton 155th in the magazines listing of schools in upstate New York.
The rankings for other schools in the region included Ogdensburg, 229; Massena, 254; Lisbon, 272; Norwood-Norfolk, 275; Heuvelton, 323; Hammond, 330; Morristown, 340; and Madrid-Waddington, 345.
This is certainly the type of list that we want our school district to rate high on, Potsdam Superintendent Patrick H. Brady said. Our staff and administration work very hard to create a program where our students could achieve despite the difficulties facing schools today.
This is the third year that Potsdam has taken the regions top spot, despite increasing financial woes.
It has been very difficult, and we have cut over 50 positions and several programs, but through it all we have tried to maintain good class sizes and a variety of academic programs, Mr. Brady said.
The district is considering a merger with Canton, which ranked third in the region, to help save costs and maintain services.
Mr. Brady attributed the continuing success to a persistent focus on graduation rates and dedicated parents.
They support our school district, and they have high expectations for our school. They wont accept providing less opportunity for students, he said.
The St. Lawrence Central School District had little reason to celebrate, ranking 33rd in the region and 397th among the 429 schools studied.
Obviously the ranking is disappointing, Superintendent Stephan J. Vigliotti Sr. said. We want to do everything that we can do to improve it.
Mr. Viglotti took over the district in July, replacing Stephen M. Putman, who retired at the end of the last school year.
He said the school will begin a strategic planning process in November, gathering information to pinpoint and target its specific weaknesses.
Im still learning, becoming oriented to the district and the people and so forth, Mr. Vigliotti said.
No matter where they placed, the superintendents agreed that the rankings provide an incentive for improvement.
The goal is to improve academic achievement. Thats the goal if youre ranked 33rd of if youre ranked first, Mr. Vigliotti said.
Mr. Brady agreed, saying Potsdams high marks should not be taken as a sign that the district has reached the peak, but rather as an impetus for further progress.
Its nice to be on the list, but the standards continue to increase, with Common Core curriculum, for example, so we as a school district need to continue to work hard and focus our efforts on those areas of improvement, he said.

An interesting aspect of Rhode Island high school wrestling is the traditional powers typically avoid one another until the final month of the dual-meet season, choosing to compete in out-of-state tournaments in December and January before taking each other on during February.
In wrestling, familiarity isn't a good thing. Nobody likes to tip their hand before the pot gets big enough to mean something.
Defending state champion Cumberland and top contender Warwick Veterans have saved their dual-meet encounter for Feb. 16, just nine days before the state tournament begins at the Providence Athletic Center.
The Clippers begin the tough part of their dual-meet schedule on Feb. 3 when they visit perennial power Cranston West. Six days later, they travel to Bishop Hendricken, the No. 4 team in unofficial state power rankings.
Cumberland hosted its own tournament on Saturday, bringing in several quality out-of-state schools to raise the level of competition in the John D. Gorman Memorial event. Cumberland successfully defended its team title and crowned three individual champions – Shai Lariviere (119), Erik Travers (130) and Jon Maccini (135).
Several of Saturday night's championship final bouts could be repeated in early March during the first few rounds of the New England championship meet. Shai Lariviere might see South Windsor's Sam Odell, whom he defeated 5-1 in Saturday's finals. Twin brother Shoneil would certainly hope to avenge his 6-3 loss to South Windsor's Brandon Lopez during the New England tournament.
At the higher levels of competition, wrestling is about matchups and knowledge of an opponent's style, which is one of the reasons why the elite Rhode Island schools wait until February to compete against one another. Scouting reports are important but nothing is more revealing than facing a strong opponent and learning strengths and weaknesses, filing away notes for future battles. A battle lost one night can turn into a bigger victory down the road.
Both South Windsor wrestlers stayed away from the strengths of the Lariviere twins, who no longer can surprise opponents with their variety of headlocks, throws and quick takedown moves. The twins have been wrestling at a high level ever since their freshmen year. The scouting book on them has a lot of pages and is passed around New England. That's the price of success. Familiarity doesn't breed contempt in wrestling. It just means there are fewer secrets left to discover on the mat.
Cumberland sophomore Erik Travers is another wrestler who is gaining respectful attention from opponents. As a freshman, Travers wrestled tough during the dual-meet season and placed at the state meet as a rather lanky 103-pounder. This year, he has grown into a strong 130-pounder who won Outstanding Wrestler honors at Saturday's tournament. Travers pinned four foes in a combined time of 6 minutes, 55 seconds.
"When he gets in on a leg, his opponents tend to go north," Cumberland coach Steve Gordon said. My guess is he meant they go south but you never know with wrestling coaches. Outsiders like myself can watch a lot of wrestling and never begin to scratch the surface of knowledge that wrestlers and coaches accrue during the course of their careers. You only learn wrestling by doing it. Many high school athletes in other sports have learned a hard lesson when they tried to take on an experienced wrestler in gym class. Knowledge is power on the mat.
Travers may already be one of the top four wrestlers in his weight class at the state level. Unfortunately, three-time state champion Mike Myers of Warwick Veterans is still around, wrestling this year at 130 pounds. Myers lost a match in New Hampshire earlier this month, which is notable because that is only his second defeat in four years of high school wrestling. His first loss came as a freshman in the finals of the New England championship.
Myers has since won two New England titles. He has been the best wrestler in the state for the past two seasons and stands alone this year, above even Shai Lariviere, who has lost fewer than 10 bouts in his high school career.
Erik Travers can only hope to learn from Myers when and if they wrestle on Feb. 16 in the season's final dual-meet. With a little luck, Travers might even face Myers at the state meet, giving him two chances to learn about wrestling at a very high level.
Gordon says that kids like Erik Travers have seen their skills advance just by working on offensive moves and counters every day in practice with the Lariviere twins. Wrestlers get better when they compete against teammates and opponents who are better than they are. That's why out-of-state tournaments are scheduled by ambitious coaches. It is also why the state meet has so much meaning.
Rhode Island wrestlers traditionally do not fare well in the New England championships. The state has gotten better in recent years but the sustained success of someone like Mike Myers is very rare. There is more competition among more schools in states like New Hampshire, Connecticut and Massachusetts. A New Hampshire wrestler might face 10 really tough opponents inside his own state. That doesn't happen in Rhode Island, where a tough weight class is one where two or three strong wrestlers reside.
Shai Lariviere won a New England crown at 103 pounds two years ago but finished third at 112 last winter. This year, he is up to 119, important because college weight brackets begin at this class. He will run into physically stronger opponents at 119 pounds, especially in the New England meet. Lariviere will have to be at his physical peak in March if he hopes to add a second New England championship to his resume.
Shoneil Lariviere showed a crack in his armor on Saturday. During a 12-2 victory in the 125-pound semifinals, Shoneil became openly exasperated by his opponent's stalling tactics. It is actually a measure of respect when a decent wrestler's goal is to avoid a pin against a superior foe. The superior wrestler would normally just accept the fact that his opponent is going to act like a fish and spread-eagle his arms and legs on the mat to avoid getting decked.
Shoneil let his foe's submissive behavior get into his head, and even though he won an easy decision, Lariviere seemed to carry his frustration into the title match three hours later. Shoneil got taken down twice, which never happens. That was the difference in his 6-3 loss to South Windsor's Brandon Lopez, who was pleased to score an upset victory.
If there is a difference between the twins, it is that Shai is a superior clinical wrestler. He rarely gets caught off-balance. Shai may also be a bit cooler in the head. This is just my opinion, based on what little I know of the sport. Steve Gordon might differ with this viewpoint. Bob Gibbons, stepfather of the twins and their coach at Northeast Elite, would certainly have a more qualified opinion on this subject than I do.
But it is something to consider as the twins try to finish their high school careers with the best performances of their young lives, not only at the state meet but at the New Englands, where nothing comes easy, and where everyone knows your name, and your style of wrestling.

New York Rangers @ Toronto Maple Leafs
Date: Saturday January 4, 2014
Time: 7:00 PM EST
Arena: Air Canada Centre
Current Standings:
New York Rangers: 20 - 20 - 2 , 5th in Metropolitan, 10th in Conference
Toronto Maple Leafs: 21 - 16 - 5, 4th in Atlantic, 5th in Conference
The New York Rangers return to the ice tonight in chilly Toronto for an evening matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Rangers will be looking to rebound after a disappointing and lackluster 5-2 loss last night to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Cam Talbot will be back in net for the Rangers after Henrik Lundqvist allowed five goals last night.
Despite the return of Captain Ryan Callahan and a generally healthy lineup, the Rangers could not muster any sustained pressure against the Penguins and suffered multiple neutral zone and defensive zone turnovers that Pittsburgh quickly converted.
The lineup likely remains the same for the Rangers with the exception of JT Miller's re-insertion into the roster following Derek Dorsett's injury. Dorsett is expected to miss extended time with a broken leg. After Taylor Pyatt was waived this past week and claimed by Pittsburgh, Miller remains the lone extra forward.
Both Michael Del Zotto and Justin Falk were healthy scratches last night and no word on whether either will see the ice tonight. Given Conor Allen's strong play it is unlikely either will replace him in the lineup.
As for their opponent, the Leafs have exceeded expectations and sit comfortably in the playoff pack for the conference.
Sniper Phil Kessel leads the team offensively with 20 goals and 18 assists for 38 points. Deadline acquisition and former Philadelphia Flyer James Van Riemsdyk has started to come on offensively as well, with 15 goals and 15 assists for 30 points.
Captain and recently-extended defender Dion Phaneuf has been stalwart on defense, leading the Leafs with a +15.
Goaltending also appears to be taking shape for the Leafs as Jonathan Bernier has become more consistent than James Reimer.
In their previous matchup, the Rangers outlasted the Leafs 2-1 in a shootout after a late controversial tying goal by Toronto. Backup netminder Talbot was in net for New York and Bernier for Toronto.

Local residents are invited to learn about the station and meet the leadership team
DELTA, PA — Have you ever wondered how Peach Bottom operators harness the power of the atom to create safe, clean and reliable energy for more than two million homes? Learn the answer to that question and many more at Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station's annual Community Information Night. The event will be held on May 15 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the station's Training Center.
Station employees will be on hand to educate visitors on station operations; environmental stewardship; industrial safety; radiological safety; site security; emergency preparedness and much more. Visitors can also tour the plant's control room simulator, which is used to train reactor operators. Informational handouts and refreshments will be provided at this family-friendly event.
"Community Information Night is a great opportunity for us to meet our neighbors, explain what we do, and demonstrate how hard we work to protect our workers, our community and the environment," said Site Vice President Michael J. Massaro. "The annual event continues to grow in popularity each year. We welcomed nearly 500 participants last year and we have lengthened the timeframe of the event to accommodate even more people this year."
Visitors will have a rare opportunity to tour Peach Bottom Unit 1, a historic, high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, the first of its kind in the world. Unit 1 was defueled and retired from service in 1974.
To ensure the safety of the plant and our guests, the station's vehicle checkpoint will not be open to Community Information Night guests. Visitors are asked to park in the station's outer parking lot at 1848 Lay Road. A bus will transport visitors to the training center.
If you require special accommodations or have questions about Community Information Night, please contact Lacey Dean at 717-456-4818 or email@example.com.
Community Information Night is an important part of Peach Bottom's annual public information and outreach campaign, designed to engage and educate the public on station operations. Throughout the year, Peach Bottom and its employees are very active in the community; volunteering, hosting tours, visiting area schools, appearing at community events and financially supporting dozens of civic organizations.

So the deadline came and went today at 4:00 for the Bills to get a long term deal done with franchise safety Jairus Byrd.
Nether side has done much talking publicly. General Manager Doug Whaley issued this statement after the deadline passed this afternoon.
"We worked very hard to come to a long-term agreement with Jairus, but unfortunately, were unable to reach one before today's deadline. Our attention will now be focused on a one-year agreement with him and on Training Camp with our continued efforts to prepare our team for the upcoming season."
I can tell you a bit more about how they arrived at this.
A source close to negotiations tells me that Byrd and his agent Eugene Parker wanted to become the highest paid free safety in the NFL. That would eclipse the 5-year $41.25 million dollar deal that Dashon Goldson signed with Tampa Bay. There was a reported $22-million guaranteed as part of that deal.
I'm told the Bills were willing to put him in the top four at the position, but that Byrd and Parker essentially walked away from their final offer and shut down negotiations with the deadline passing today with no talks.
So what's next?
the Bills and Byrd are restricted to signing a one-year deal until after the coming season. I suspect that Byrd's holdout is going to continue into training camp as he will likely negotiate for a deal that will prevent the Bills from using the franchise tag on him again next year.
Parker did not comment via email Monday afternoon.

President Obama ignited a major political conflagration with his January 16 address to the nation regarding the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting that took 26 lives in Connecticut the month before. He proposed what he said are "common-sense steps" that would "prevent gun violence" and "protect our children and our communities from tragic mass shootings."
President Obama's program, entitled Now Is the Time, outlined a series of 23 executive actions he said he would take to "make our schools safer" and "enhance public safety." Predictably, the major focus of his program is aimed at enacting more legislation and implementing more regulation through executive orders that would further restrict the rights of American citizens to keep and bear arms.
And just as predictably, the militant anti-gun lobby was quick to complain that the president's plan didn't go far enough. Gun rights advocates, on the other hand, immediately (and appropriately) denounced the president's program as a blatant attack on the Second Amendment. It would, they pointed out, endanger one of the most important rights enjoyed by law-abiding Americans, while doing nothing to stem the death and mayhem wrought by violent criminals.
However, in their rush to challenge President Obama's infringement of the Second Amendment, many of his opponents have unwittingly fallen into the trap of supporting other aspects of his program, specifically those falling under the labels of "mental health" and "school safety." Some gun rights advocates also endorsed President Obama's appeal for more federal funding of local police. Most appalling in this regard was the response of the National Rifle Association, which decided to practice some one-upsmanship with the president by calling on the federal government to immediately fund a vast new program "to put armed police in every school." These proposals represent a huge assault on other parts of our Constitution, most particularly, the 10th Amendment, which emphatically restates our Republic's key founding principle that the federal government has only those powers specifically enumerated in the Constitution.
Gun rights advocates who think they can preserve the Second Amendment while sacrificing other parts of the Constitution are sadly mistaken; it must be defended in toto or it will be lost in toto.

I have just recently switched from WindowsXP to Mandrake 8.2.
I having a problem that when I Shutdown my maching it has a message saying "Unmounting NFS Filesystemand then tells me it FAILED. It then freezes and doesn complete the shutdown.
I am a newbie to Linux, so forgive me if it is a simple answer.
If you're not using the NFS service (unix file sharing), then turn that service off. The services are controled via the Mandrake COntrol Center - there's a services section in there where you can stop/start the services and tell the machine whether to start them at boot and such.

There was a special buzz amid the eighth annual Mesa Verde Classic Monday at Mesa Verde Country Club.
Realtor Valerie Torelli mixed tasty drinks at a martini bar at the 17th tee, while plenty of drinks were available at other holes, but that's not the type of buzz I'm talking about.
A party atmosphere took over at the golf course, but there was also a sense of community, positivity and hope for the future.
City leaders and business people put down their guards for one day to have some golf fun in the sun. They did it all in the name of charity, raising money for Costa Mesa United.
Mesa United, with its focus on youth sports programs, was the primary force in producing projects like Jim Scott Stadium at Estancia High School and the Costa Mesa Aquatics Center at Costa Mesa High School.
The organization wants to help with more facilities and improvements. And fundraisers like the Mesa Verde Classic are needed. The golf event has raised about $1 million throughout its history.
Raising money doesn't need to be serious.
Gordon Bowley, who chaired the fundraiser with Mayor Pro Tem Steve Mensinger, wanted to make sure every hole was an event with a Hawaiian/South Pacific theme.
Torelli's specialty drink was a mango martini, but that wasn't the only reason for the delay at the 17th tee. An In-N-Out truck parked nearby.
"Of course it's about raising money for Costa Mesa United, but more than that, it's a way for the right-wing and left-wing people of Costa Mesa to come together," Torelli said. "It's unifying and a cleansing of the soul. You have that camaraderie.
"You go to an In-N-Out truck and to a martini bar. You can have a python around your neck or go to [someone in a gorilla suit] scaring you. There are parrots. You can have someone roll you a cigar … It's a fun day. For one day, everybody lets everything down."
Torelli helped with creating the style for each hole. Bowley smiled at the thought of each one. He was also at the 17th tee when I drove by with my helpful escorts, former Daily Pilot Publisher Tom Johnson and former Pilot editor and current city spokesman Bill Lobdell.
Bowley thanked the community for such great support. He said the tournament alone could bring in about $80,000, with more coming from other events tied to the golf tournament.
Bowley introduced me to David Schweitzer, a donor who was honored with other special people at the closing dinner.
Bowley, Schweitzer, Ryan Knapp and Erich Melvedt won the tournament (129).
Schweitzer, without solicitation, donated $125,000 to Costa Mesa United. He also transferred profitable stocks to help the program.
Recently he bought a new van for about $35,000 for the Estancia golf teams.
"We lived here for almost 50 years," said Schweitzer, who had three children grow up in Costa Mesa. "It's a good place to give back … This is the for the community. It makes Costa Mesa better."
Schweitzer ate a burger and a had a drink at the 17th tee.
In the distance a man banged gently on a metal drum to create calypso tunes. On another side of the course, the band Loose Change delivered cover songs ranging from Rick James to Led Zeppelin. There was also a mechanical surfing machine.

Midwest Living Review
You know you'll be able to quickly ditch the hubbub of modern life when you're facing Ludlow's vintage crank telephone (kids giggle and grandparents say, "I remember"). The phone summons the wooden boat for transport to Ludlow's Island and its 13 cottages scattered throughout the woods. Seven more cottages are on the lake's north and south shores. The fanciest one is Dreamcatcher, a four-story "treehouse" with fabulous views of the woods and a way to make the outside feel inside. The master suite on the fourth floor has a whirlpool and looks fantastic, but also comes with a $3,400/week summer price tag. Ouch. One cabin on the North Shore has one room, while the rest range from two to five bedrooms. All have decks, wood-burning fireplaces and screen porches.Overlook some hefty price tags and the fact that visitors usually have to book an entire week at a time, and the island feels like a throwback in all the good ways: an honor system pantry stocked with necessities such as (ahem) ice cream bars and s'mores fixings; a main lodge filled with books, games and movies to borrow; and a staff willing to bring you just about anything from town to save you from leaving the island escape. That's not to say you can't boat back to your car and explore the area, but there is a lot to do here. Families can even grab camping gear and spend a night on a smaller island all by themselves. Most prefer to boat or fish one of Minnesota's largest lakes, hang out on the beach, and reconnect with each other in a timeless kind of place. Summer weekly rates run $2,500-$3,900 depending on cabin and number of people. Summer daily rates run $250 on up, depending on cabin and number of people. Spring and fall base rates are $250-$295 for two, plus fees for additional people.

Price Police Officer Tracey Allred investigates the scene of a recent traffic accident. The Utah Highway Patrol and several online sources recommend staying inside a vehicle involved in an accident if possible until the authorities arrive at the scene.
A motor vehicle accident can be a jarring experience for the most experienced driver. And for teens who have barely obtained drivers licenses, traffic mishaps can be devastating.
But by following several standard recommendations, the majority of traffic accidents can be made less painful and expensive.
The informational site www.kidshealth.org, detailed several tips that can be used to minimize the mental and financial strain a teen's first automobile accident can cause.
In 2005, there were more than 6.1 million police-reported traffic crashes in the United States.
"Although you do your best to drive responsibly and defensively, it's still smart to know what to do just in case you end up in an accident. Crashes can be very scary," states the teen health portion of the site.
The web page offers several suggestions for Carbon County residents who become involved in an accident.
Motorists as well as passengers traveling with the drivers should:
â¢Take some deep breaths and calm down.
After a crash, individuals may feel a wide range of emotions, including shock, guilt, fear, nervousness and anger.
However, the website states that taking a few deep breaths or counting slowly to 10 will help an individual involved in a traffic mishap to calm down and deal with the situation.
â¢Keep things safe.
If it is not possible to exit the car, people should keep seatbelts fastened, turn on the vehicle's hazard lights and call 911 while waiting for help to arrive at the accident scene.
â¢Be ready to provide pertinent information when calling to report a traffic accident.
The dispatcher should ask for the name and phone number of the reporting party.
People should tell the dispatcher as much as possible about the incident, including whether there is a fire, traffic hazards or a medical emergency.
Involved parties or eyewitnesses should let the dispatcher know exactly where the accident occurred.
People should give the city road name, road number, mile marking, direction of travel, traffic signs and anything else that can identify the vehicle's current position.
Additionally, people should make sure to stay on the line until the dispatcher has obtained all needed information.
"If you can drive your car and are in an unsafe spot or are blocking traffic, find a safe and legal place to park your car," advised the site. "In some states, however, it's illegal to move your car from the scene of an accident."
Utah is not one of the states in question.
"Safety is always the first concern," said Utah Highway Patrol Public Information Officer Cameron Roden. "We do encourage someone who is blocking a major roadway to move their car out of the way and then stay put."
Roden stressed the fact that drivers should immediately contact law enforcement authorities after a crash.
Additionally, he said people should remain inside the vehicles if possible.
"We don't want someone who has just been in an accident moving around outside of their vehicle," pointed out Roden. "They could be hit by other motorists and there is always the chance the tempers may flair between drivers causing the problem to only get worse."
The UHP representative indicated that motorists should wait for the law enforcement authorities to arrive at an accident scene before inspecting any damages to their vehicles or making contact with the other driver involved in the mishap.
If the traffic mishap is minor, the teen health website recommends that young motorists turn off the engines of the vehicles and, once law enforcement authorities arrive at the scene, they can check the car for damage.
"Also check yourself - not all serious injuries can be seen," advised the website.
The highway patrol recommends that all parties involved in a traffic mishap be checked by medical personnel even if there is no indication of injury.
"If the accident is minor and you feel that you can describe it, try to do so," said the site. "Detailed notes and photos of the scene may help the court and insurance agencies decide who is responsible for the accident."
It is recommended that a person take personal notes and photos of an accident if possible.
Some teens and adults have issues with the accident in the days and weeks following the incident, possibly leading to post traumatic stress syndrome.
The disorder is most common in major accidents and would likely be diagnosed by health professionals following the crash.
However, it is a disorder that is easily missed. The following are symptoms of the illness:
â¢Avoiding emotions or any reminders of the incident.
â¢Constant feelings of anxiousness, crankiness, or anger.
â¢Avoiding medical test or procedures.
â¢Constantly reliving the incident.
â¢Nightmares or trouble sleeping.
For help with the issues, people should contact a mental health care professional.

NEW ORLEANS — Nothing troublesome about this one.
That's how Thunder coach Scott Brooks wanted it, and it's exactly how it should have been.
NEW ORLEANS — Nothing troublesome about this one.
That's how Thunder coach Scott Brooks wanted it, and it's exactly how it should have been.
Oklahoma City thoroughly dominated an injury-ravaged Hornets squad on Saturday night, taking control early and eliminating any concern of a letdown before cruising to a 100-79 victory inside New Orleans Arena.
The win was the Thunder's fifth straight and second blowout victory in two weeks against a struggling Hornets team hovering near the bottom of the Western Conference standings.
Oklahoma City led by as many as 29 points and never trailed after taking a 7-6 lead with 9:06 left in the first quarter.
It was the kind of performance that separates the good teams from the great teams and showed just how much this Thunder team is maturing.
The Hornets were without No. 1 overall pick Anthony Davis, who is suffering from a stress reaction in his left ankle, and continues to be without shooting guard Eric Gordon. But the Thunder remained focused despite staring at a short-handed team playing without its best two players. The Thunder also played as if it didn't thump these same Hornets, with Davis, by 15 points two weeks ago, something Brooks cautioned before the game is one of the toughest things to do.
"This is a game in the past where, on a back-to-back and a place we won rather handedly last time we were here, we might have came in without focus," said Nick Collison. "But we didn't do that tonight. We came in and played the right way."
Russell Westbrook scored 18 points with five rebounds and 10 assists to lead the Thunder. It was his eighth double-double of the year and the sixth time he's finished with at least 10 assists. Much like his last trip to New Orleans, Westbrook set the tone with his defensive pressure against Hornets point guard Greivis Vasquez and helped shut down the Hornets entire offense. Vasquez scored just five points on 2-for-8 shooting with seven assists and three turnovers.

Just put a brief review of your album of the day...if you can be bothered.
Caravan: For girls who grow plump in the night.
OK it's very dated prog rock and I think 'In the Land of the Grey and Pink' is an even better album with Robert Wyatt on vocals, but this still deserves a listen. It reminds me of when I was in school and I love the combination of rock guitars, pounding bass and violin.
Stand out tracks: Memory Lain, Hugh/Headloss and The Dog, The Dog, he's at it Again.
As far as I know had absolutely no influence on any other music but I don't give a monkey's.

Due to high demand
Cellulite Home Remedies What to Choose?
Deciding on choosing Cellulite Home Remedies is actually a very vise and good solution you have just made.
It is extremely difficult to get rid of cellulite by doing a diet and exercise alone because those fat cells that causes cellulite are extremely difficult to get rid of.
This is because they are coded genetically to protect us against bad times; from the times where we were living in caves as hunters and it could takes months between foods.
Another reason lies in the woman ability to have babies and be able to feed them for nine months. According to nature a woman is much better capable of doing that if she have a couple of layers of hard to get rid of fat, located on hips, buttocks and thighs.
So if you want to get rid of cellulite for good it is a good idea to choose a cellulite home remedy solution, but still maintain a healthy diet and exercising on a regular basis.
>>> Try Aminophylline Cream For Free Here! <<<
Best Cellulite Home Remedy Solution
So what type of cellulite solution should you choose?
Retinol products are extremely popular these days, but basically Retinol contains of animal vitamin A and are only working topical on the surface of the skin, flattening it out so to speak.
You need a solution that are much more effective and capable of penetrate deeper into the skin and actually do something about the real problem; the fat cells that are causing the cellulite in the first place.
What happening is that when a high amount of fat cells occurs will be pushed out against the inside of your skin and that will cause this orange looking skin.
The best way to minimize and get rid of that is to reduce the amount of fat cells causing it.
Aminophylline What Does It Do?
Aminophylline seems to be the best option to effectively reduce the amount of fat cells and the size of them. Fat cells has an ability to grow in size so it is not only a question about getting rid of them but also to reduce the size
Aminophylline act as a dehydrating compound that penetrates the skin and start a dehydrating process of your fat cells so they very fast will reduce in size and with time will reduce in numbers as well.
You can expect to see results already within one week but you have to expect a longer period of time where you are using an Aminophylline cream on a regular basis.
Else they might start to grow in size again, and if you are not on a healthy diet, they will start to double as well.
Procellix The Best Home Remedy Cellulite Solution
The best Cellulite cream on the market today that contains Aminophylline is Procellix which is a brilliant cream because it also contains other ingredients that will make your cellulite free life much easier such a topical caffeine that is another effective cellulite remover, but also topical solutions to start a rejuvenation and skin repair of broken skin caused by cellulite.
So using an Aminophylline cream solution as your preferred cellulite home remedy is your absolute best choice if you want to get rid of cellulite and keep it off.
Many other remedies available on the market today are simply not strong enough to really remove the cellulite because they are mo topical and focused on the skin.

"Exelon is only as strong as the communities it serves, and these agreements are one way we live up to our commitment to diversity and local investment," said Chaka Patterson, vice president and treasurer of Exelon. "Not only does this provide us added financial flexibility, but it offers the banks an opportunity to gain experience managing complex transactions with a Fortune 200 company, which can help them attract other clients."
The lead arranger banks for the credit agreements are Seaway Bank and Trust Company in Chicago, Riverside Community Bank in Rockford, Ill., and United Bank of Philadelphia. The new credit agreements replace a 2009 arrangement for $67 million.
"Having a credit agreement with a large company like Exelon enhances our reputation in the community," said Arlene Williams, executive vice president of Seaway Bank and Trust Company. "It also demonstrates Exelon's interest in improving our area's financial stability and economic development."
Exelon's minority and community banking program – the only one of its kind in the energy industry – aims to increase the company's business with local and diverse banks in its key markets. The program has nearly tripled in size since it began in 2003 with a $36 million credit facility from eight community banks. Four new Philadelphia-area community banks joined the program in 2010, including Beneficial Bank, Bryn Mawr Trust, Conestoga Bank and Fox Chase Bank.
Exelon has a strong and growing commitment to supplier diversity and has made it a critical part of its overall supply chain strategy. In 2009, nearly 6 percent of Exelon's total spend went to minority- and women-owned businesses, and the company had $667 million under management with 10 minority- and women-owned investment banks.
Exelon Corporation is one of the nation's largest electric utilities with more than $17 billion in annual revenues. The company has one of the industry's largest portfolios of electricity generation capacity, with a nationwide reach and strong positions in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Exelon distributes electricity to approximately 5.4 million customers in northern Illinois and southeastern Pennsylvania and natural gas to approximately 486,000 customers in the Philadelphia area. Exelon is headquartered in Chicago and trades on the NYSE under the ticker EXC.

Michelle Rodriguez turns 35-years-old today -- and she's probably been a badass for all 35 of them!
The actress made her film debut in the critically acclaimed 2000 flick "Girlfight" before joining one of the most enduring action franchises of our time: "The Fast and the Furious."
Since 2001, she's gone on to play the sexy, tough chick in almost everything she's been in -- including "Avatar," "Lost," "Resident Evil" and "Machete."
With another "Fast & Furious" flick coming in 2014 and "Machete Kills" hitting theaters later this year, her tough-as-nails roles aren't going anywhere ... and we're totally O.K. with that!
And while she still looks great, how have some of the other stars of the original 2001 movie aged in the last 12 years?
Check out the gallery above and see a brand new pic from "Machete Kills" below.

Even when you know what you want, It's nice to have choices. And if you're among the growing number of people who feel Griffin's Survivor case is the obvious choice when it comes to protective carrying cases for iPad, it's good to know your accessory doesn't have to look like everyone else's.
This week's mobile accessory of the week, the Survivor Case for iPad 2, iPad 3 and iPad 4, is among the best, as one would expect from Griffin. Touted as a "military-duty" accessory, it's designed to help your iPad survive even the harshest conditions, from drops, shocks and vibrations to sand, dirt and rain.
With a rigid internal frame that has survived test drops of 6 feet on concrete, and a shock absorbing silicone outer than can withstand vibrations of up to 2,000 MHz for hours on end, you know the Survivor iPad case can handle whatever your tablet is going to face in an an ordinary day.
And design details, like an integrated screen protector, multi-position kickstand, and easy-to-open port sealer show just how much thought Griffin has put into this iPad case.
But what's extra nice is the fact that, unlike some other great iPad carrying cases, the Survivor doesn't just come in standard black or white. Instead, men and women alike will find tons of choice when it comes to color.
From a punky acid green and black combo, to a sweet and regal lavender and purple mix, to the very sporty black and royal blue model, this is one iPad Case with many different personalities.
It's one thing to find all the specs you need for the best possible iPad protection, and quite another to find all that along with great styling and design. But with their Survivor Case for iPad, Griffin's thought of it all. And that's what makes it our top pick for mobile accessory of the week.

The XA10 Professional Camcorder offers a wide array of functions to provide the professional shooter with an exceptional level of control.
Custom Key and Dial
A Custom Key and Dial feature allows you to assign functions to an easily accessible key and adjust the settings with a control dial. They include:
To further enhance focusing capability, the XA10 also features Focus Assist. It includes enlargement, which helps in capturing your subject in razor-sharp focus. It works by providing a 2x magnification of your subject, which is automatically cancelled when you start recording. Also included is color peaking, which shows the shooting object's focused areas in actual colors. With Canon's Edge Monitor Focus Assist system, a green monitor is shown at the bottom of the LCD Display. The green waveform shows overall focus of the image, and the height raises to indicate the area in focus. Through this dynamic focus feedback, you can intuitively tune focus in a scene and quickly change the zone of focus.
Typically only found on expensive external units, the XA10 has a waveform monitor built right into the camera. The waveform monitor shows a detailed view of overall image brightness.
Enhanced zebra pattern (70% or 100%) indicates 'blown out' or high brightness areas to help you set the proper exposure.
Composition Aids
With the Level Marker feature, it's easy to keep the camcorder level for more accurate framing.
The Grid Marker provides a reference grid in your viewfinder. Depending on the background color of your shot, you can choose between two different colors for better viewing contrast.
Advanced Control
The XA10 features full manual exposure, as well as aperture priority (Av), and shutter priority (Tv) modes.
Either color bars or color bars and test tone can be selected and recorded using a menu. The color bars comply with the SMPTE standard. -12 dB, -18 dB or -20 dB can be selected as the test tone.
The white balance control has 6 available presets settable through a variety of day and artificial light conditions (Daylight, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent H, and Fluorescent), as well as two manual white balance settings. Color temperature may also be manually set from 2,000K to 15,000K in 100K increments for more precise adjustment.
Gain may be manually set from 0 dB to 24 dB in 1 dB increments. Additionally, Auto Gain Control Limit allows you to set the maximum gain limit for the image sensor's sensitivity. With this function, brightness and noise can be balanced as required, and image quality can be maximized in low light situations.
Power zoom is available in Constant and Variable settings in 3 modes: Fast (approx. 1.9 - 60 seconds), Normal (approx. 3.0 - 180 seconds) and Slow (approx. 4.0 - 285 seconds). To provide added control, there are 16 predefined steps in Constant mode.
Prices and specifications subject to change without notice. Actual prices are determined by individual dealers and may vary.

|A simple stir fry of ground beef, cabbage and rice, it's quick, easy and delicious!
Stir Fried CabbageThis stir fried cabbage recipe made with ground beef, and affectionately referred to as Crack Slaw by low carbers, was a favorite back when I was low carbing. Yeah, I did it, the whole low carb thing, and frankly, it is a great way to lose a few pounds pretty quick, say, for instance, those holidays pounds. For me, however, it was not good for the long term. My weight loss stalled pretty quick - apparently my body likes a bit more balance. I mean, it started getting to the point that I had to limit SALAD for pete's sake because things like lettuce and tomatoes have carbs and so long as I had any carbs, my weight loss stalled! Whatever. But, if you want to knock off a few pounds fast, cutting back on carbs for a little while can help with that.
Anyway... when I was low carbing, this Crack Slaw, minus the rice of course, was a popular low carber dish that earned that name because it was supposedly addicting to many low carbers. While it's a delicious dish whether you are low carbing or going low fat, I never quite got that connection personally. It could be that if they were say consuming this entire dish, they were eating way more carbs than they realized. One small head of cabbage actually does have 23 net grams of carbs, so keep that in mind if you're low carbing and in induction. No wonder everybody loved it, huh? This is a variation of the original recipe, which to the best of my memory was actually a Body for Life recipe that used rice. Many low carbers often use the packaged slaw mix and some substituted broccoli slaw, and of course, eliminated the rice.
Depending on the type of ground beef you use, this is a fairly low calorie and low fat dish that is pretty darned tasty dish if you happen to love cabbage and it's a dish that I still love. You can also eliminate the ground beef all together and use ground turkey, or simply just stir fry the cabbage and rice with the seasonings. Any of those variations is delicious.
The Cajun is not much of a veggie eater and not big on cabbage, so I usually make this up just for myself on those nights when he's not that hungry ... like, for instance, yesterday, when he filled up on junk all day watching sports at his bud's house and had no room for a real meal. By the way, if you landed here looking for traditional southern fried cabbage, you can find that right here.
Recipe: Stir-Fried Cabbage with Ground Beef or Turkey©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Cook time: 15 min | Yield: About 4 to 6 servings
- 1 pound of ground beef (can substitute turkey)
- 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, divided
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 cups of cabbage, sliced thin
- 1 cup of cooked rice (brown or white), optional
- 2 tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce
- Pinch of kosher salt, or to taste
- 8 turns of the pepper grinder, or to taste
- Crushed red pepper flakes, to taste
Brown ground beef, remove and drain; set aside. To the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil and heat over medium high. Add green onion and garlic and stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the cabbage and stir fry another 2 minutes. Add the rice, soy sauce and remaining sesame oil; stir fry for another 2 minutes. Add the cooked ground beef back to the skillet and sprinkle with the red pepper flakes; toss until heated through.
Cook's Notes: Make it lower carb by eliminating the rice. Substitute a package of cole slaw mix or broccoli slaw for the cabbage.

ALBANY - Overtime among state agencies grew 11 percent in 2012 compared to 2011, and five state employees earned more than $100,000 each in overtime alone last year, state records Wednesday showed.
Overtime costs for state government rose about $52 million, to a total of nearly $521 million. The state paid out 13.2 million in overtime hours in 2012 - the most since 2008, records obtained by Gannett's Albany Bureau from the state Comptroller's Office said.
Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli warned the state about the increase in overtime costs.
"State agency overtime jumped more than $50 million last year, reversing a downward trend," DiNapoli said in a statement. "While often necessary, overtime is an expensive way to operate. Agencies need to do a better job of monitoring their overtime and reduce it whenever possible."
Gov. Andrew Cuomo has touted his ability to lower state agency spending, including nearly $1 billion in savings he proposed in his budget address Tuesday. The budget said that in agencies controlled by the governor, the number of positions has declined by 18,802, or 14 percent since 2008, from 137,680 to 118,878.
Cuomo spokesman Richard Azzopardi said much of the overtime came from the response to Superstorm Sandy, which struck the New York City area on Oct. 29.
"The alternative would lead to a larger, more costly and inefficient state government -- the exact opposite of what this administration has worked toward during the past two years," he said. "The fact is that the unprecedented damage caused by Hurricane Sandy was also met by a strong response by all segments of the state work force."
Unions said the growth in overtime expenses was due to cuts in positions in recent years.
"The state of New York does this consciously, and nobody should be blaming the workers because most of that is mandated," said Stephen Madarasz, spokesman for the Civil Service Employees Association, the state's largest public-employee union.
"The state of New York understaffs to a perverse degree its direct-care operations and then relies on overtime to fill the gaps," he continued.
The highest overtime earner in 2012 was Mercy Mathew, a nurse at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in Westchester County. Mathew received $150,630 in overtime - in addition to a $58,000 salary, state records showed. Mathew worked more than 2,500 hours of overtime in 2012, which equates to roughly an extra 48 hours a week of work.
Mathew, who is perennially among the top overtime earners, could not be reached for comment. The other $100,000 overtime earners mainly worked at the state's psychiatric centers.
According to the Comptroller's Office, the state Department of Corrections led the state in overtime expenses at nearly $137 million in 2012, up nearly 32 percent from 2011.
The state closed seven prisons in 2011 and lowered prison staff by about 1,000 workers in recent years. Cuomo proposed Tuesday to close an additional two prisons, including a women's prison in Beacon, Dutchess County.
"This is just the latest piece of evidence that New York's correctional facilities are dangerously understaffed," said Donn Rowe, president of the prison union.
