Canada Metal (Pacific) Ltd., headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, has announced plans to open a facility in Virginia Beach. It will be the company's first manufacturing plant in the United States. In addition to the Vancouver facility, the company also has a manufacturing plant in Ningbo, China.
The company manufactures and markets marine and industrial products and is the world's largest producer of diecast marine anodes, some of which are used for offshore oil pipelines. The company also manufactures and markets the Octopus line of marine autopilot drive systems.
Canada Metal (Pacific) Ltd. looked at several locations in the Hampton Roads region before making its decision to locate at 2572 Horse Pasture Road in Virginia Beach. The company will lease 14,300 square feet of manufacturing space with the potential to expand up to 39,000 square feet.
"Virginia Beach has added another international manufacturer to our expanding global business community," said Warren D. Harris, director of Economic Development. "This company aligns perfectly with our aggressive growth in advanced manufacturing. We are increasingly finding that international companies understand the benefits of locating here with an abundance of highly skilled workers and easy access to international markets through the Ports of Virginia."
"CMP conducted a very comprehensive investigation as to where to establish their U.S. operation," said Vice President of Business Development Jim Stuart. "Virginia Beach came out head and shoulders above all other locations due to its highly skilled labor force, excellent logistics and most importantly having a culture that personifies our desire to be fully integrated within the community in which we conduct our business."
Virginia Beach was recently named the Top 7 Big City Leading the U.S. Manufacturing Revival by Forbes.
The company will create 70 new jobs over the next 36 months with average annual salaries of $36,000 excluding benefits. Additionally, Capital Metal (Pacific) Ltd. plans to invest more than $3 million in capital improvements.
The Virginia Beach Economic Development Authority has awarded the company an Economic Development Investment Program grant in the amount of $110,000 based on the number of jobs created and the capital investment.
The mission of the Virginia Beach Department of Economic Development is to attract and retain national and international businesses to stimulate capital investment and create jobs. Virginia Beach is the most populous city in Virginia with a population of 440,000, and it is the 37th largest in the United States. It is recognized as one of the Best Run Cities in America by 24/7 Wall St. The Department of Economic Development received re-accreditation through the International Economic Development Council in 2012 and is one of only 29 economic development organizations in the world to have this recognition. It is listed among the Top Five Overall Mid-sized American Cities of the Future, Top 10 for Economic Potential and Top Five for Infrastructure by fDi Magazine. CNNMoney.com ranked Virginia Beach as the Easiest Place to Start a Business and the 2nd Most Business-Friendly City in the country. For more information, visit www.yesvirginiabeach.com.

Re: 2007 & Beyond - It Ain't Over Yet, Motherfuckers
SummerSlam Feedback
Great video package that you did. Very basic and I like how you focused on the title matches but also through in some of the other rivalries. Should be an amazing show after all the build that it has gotten.
Tully on commentary owns. Hopefully he does well enough for you to replace King with him permanently.
Ten Man Tag Team Match:
Rey and Noble are good choices to start the match, as they are some of the best cruiserweights on the rosters and should provide a good battle for the opening minutes. Noble with the slap to Rey is the perfect way to start the match, with the heels proving just how little respect they have for anyone on SD!. Punk and Rey dominate for the faces in the opening minute, and CM looks ready to hit the GTS early, but that of course doesnt happen, with Regal sliding off. Great action to follow up the exchange between Regal and Punk, as Finlay dominates while hes in. Surprised that Chavo was being so easily handled during his time in the ring. It seemed like everyone got a piece of him but his determination kept the match going. Finally Chavito makes the comeback, taking Brown down with a nice Enziguiri. Kane starts to dominate when he steps into the ring, but Regal pulls out the knucks!! Kane makes the tag to Punk and now Regal gets the tag from Noble. Great spots to get everyone down on the outside, set up nice for the ending of the match. Punk is finally able to beat Regal and pins him with the GTS~! I figured that since Punk looked like the leader of the heels, hed probably be the one to pick up the pin fall. Very fast-paced opener and obviously this feud isnt over, actually just getting started. Interested to see where these guys go after such a star-studded match. Great choice of opener, was very exciting.
Damn, Batista is certainly dealing with some issues. Is he going to finally snap tonight? Guess we will just wait and see.
JBL is damn pissed off and he is going to try and destroy Haas tonight. Keep the IC Title on the Wrestling Gawd a little bit longer, plz.
Intercontinental Championship Match:
JBL get the advantage in the VERY early going, winning the tie-up and then hitting a dirty slap to the face, sending a message loud and clear to young Charlie. Haas is able to take that criticism and fight back into the match, letting his technical skills take over. Always the classiest on the roster, JBL using Williams to block Haas was brilliant and also gave Bradshaw the advantage. JBL with some power offense, the punches and then a Big Boot, but Haas slips out of the Powerbomb and ends up getting the belly-to-belly for the first near falls of the match. JBL then gets the advantage again, using his strength and also the stuff around ringside, getting a few near falls but nothing good enough to keep Haas down. Haas finally gets the advantage back and it looks like we are back to square one. Charlie misses the risky move, but then gets JBL with a German, but the Champion just barely kicks out!! Haas gets JBL to TAP but Angelina is distracting the referee~! Haas tries again with a roll-up, but JBL wont let that beat him again, barely kicking out. Clothesline from Hell!! JBL retaining was the right choice, but you did an awesome job of making Charlie look legit. I really hope that Haas doesnt go back to being depressed, and I dont think he will. He realized how close he came to winning and he is going to feed off that, imo. Rematch soon, plz.
Rocky only has one thing on his mind right now, and thats winning the World Title tonight. Will be tough to beat KK, imo but The Great One may get it done.
Intense promo by Flair, one of his best in a while. He somehow finds a way to beat Dave tonight, with the big man going a lil nuts after.
Money in the Bank Contract on the Line:
The difference in mood between these two is quite obvious. Flair is trying to get into Batistas head by acting all happy, while Batista is simply focused on what he needs to do. Batista keeps his mean streak in the early going, shoving Naitch down to the mat with authority, something Flair obviously wasnt ready for. Loved the poke to the eye from Flair, showing that he too can play by his own rules. Big Dave wastes no time going for his signature dominant offense, slamming Flair down to the canvas for the first near fall. Dave returns the words of Flair earlier in the match, as he now looks to be in complete control, using the ring to do his work, as Ric doesnt look to be in a good spot. Flair is finally able to come back, going back to some dirty tactics before hitting the suplex and then a crossbody but Batista gets back to his feet with ease!! Flair is able to keep the advantage, working over the leg of Batista before locking in THE FIGURE FOUR~! Dave is able to kick out a few times and keep the match alive, while Ric looks to be in complete control. Batista finally turns the legs over and then has the advantage, hitting a wicked Spear, but Naitch kicks out. Jackknife by Naitch but Batista gets the shoulder up!! Another Spine Buster but then THE BATISTA BOMB!! Batista is the new holder of the MITB contract!! Shocked to say the least, as I thought Flair was retaining for sure, with Big Dave going nuts after the match. The handshake and embrace was heart-warming, but Batista is still pissed off. I wonder how long it will be before he cashes in the MITB. Wont be too long, imo as that is what hes been waiting for. Overall, a solid match with a surprising result, cant wait to see what happens next for these two.
Wow, that was some major ownage by Helms. Benji was being cool with Haas but Greg, definitely the heel of the team, has some hard words for Charlie. This should make Haas even more determined the next time he faces JBL, which will be soon, plz.
Awesome interview from HBK, giving his match with RVD later some final hype. Michaels has been awesome at SSlam, too bad I dont see him getting the victory tonight. RVDs time, imo.
Summer Games Gauntlet Match:
Great choice for the #1 and #2 entrants, as Doane and Morrison have all kinds of unfinished business. Should give an entertaining opening few minutes. Ken gets the advantage to start, taking John down with an impressive Lariat and then a dropkick, but the Guru of Greatest is able to come back and take control, before Doane comes back again with his unique offense. Entertaining five minutes, as Melina ends up being the deciding factor, as Doane can only fight her off for so long, before Morrison takes advantage of his valet, planting Ken with the Moonlight Drive for the three count. Morrison > Doane, and Im very glad that you see that. Lito is the next man out!! Should be entertaining to see how he and Morrison duke it out. Love the type of heel that Morrison is playing, trying to get out of harms way by leaving the ring, but Carly isnt too into that, taking it to John with right hands. Surprised to see Morrison get back into the drivers seat and he dominates, before Carlito is able to come back, and the line about Morrison blasting Melina in the face was EPIC. Carlito pins Morrison~! Makes sense that Porter is the next man in, after that heated confrontation between him and Carlito the past two weeks. VP starts in the drivers seat, really taking it to Lito, getting a few good near falls. Loved the way that CCC came back hitting a few big moves but not doing enough to keep MVP down. The numbers advantage is just too much for Carly to overcome, as he gets taken down by the Playmaker, and is now out of the match. Here comes Angle~! Angle comes out on fire, taking Porter down with a trio of German Suplexes, but then MVP takes the cheap way out, taking Angles face into the turnbuckle. Porter tries desperately to put Angle away, but Kurt is far too fresh, taking MVP over with a ridiculous belly-to-belly suplex. ANGLE SLAM~! AAE and Umaga are out now? Estrada distracts the referee LOW BLOW by MVP~! Porter rolls up Angle to eliminate him!! Shocked to say the least, as it now comes down to MVP and Umaga. Estrada calls Umaga from the ring?! MVP wins by count-out?? I am very confused and I hope to God that we get an explanation from AAE. MVP getting a title shot is nice but the main thing that comes out of this is the continuation of the feud between Angle and Mags. Awesome match and Im very interested to see where you take these men from here.
Unforgiven should be good, as we have no idea where the WWE Title picture goes from here. Cant wait!
Angle is PISSED. Confrontation later between him and Maga. I really hope so, tbh.
United States Championship Match:
Daniels has done pretty much everything possible to get into the head of Matt Hardy, but the U.S. Champion isnt going to be one to sit around, as he goes right after Daniels to start the match!! Matt is pissed off to start the match, as he goes after Daniels on the outside, even grabbing Danger and then taking her down later on. Daniels, much like JBL, uses his valet to take advantage, and he gets a few near falls, but Matt will not stay down. Matt comes back with a wicked punch and then an awesome bulldog, getting back into the drivers seat. Daniels tries to leave the ring but Matt wont let him get away sick move by Daniels, really holding Hardy in the palm of his hand. Split-legged moonsault was cool but Matt still gets the shoulder off the mat, keeping the match alive. A few more high-impact maneuvers, as Daniels continues to cover Hardy, but Matt doesnt stay down on the mat. Matt comes back with the Side Effect~! Hardy crashes and burns after the Leg Drop and Daniels hit a Blue Thunder Driver, but Hardy gets his shoulder up AGAIN!! Daniels hits some of his biggest moves, but Hardy just cant stay down, as Daniels tries everything in his arsenal, before Hardy ducks the right hand and finally hits the Twist of Fate~!! Hardy wins the match!! Huge win for Matt and I really hope that this loss continues to fuel Daniels, as this feud is very far from over, imo. A decenet match that did its job to keep this feud going, as we are beginning to see a whole different Matt.
I dont agree with Mickie, there isnt enough time for Vicky to win the title, imo. Mickie to somehow keep the belt.
The Rubber Match:
Simply phenomenal video package that highlighted just how personal this feud has gotten. It started as just a challenge and now it has fully evolved into a personal war between two men who have no respect for each other. Rubber Match is really the only way to settle who the better man. Five months is a tremendously long time for a feud to go and yet youve kept it entertaining throughout. Well done. Michaels is a little too cocky about beating RVD, and that will end up costing him, imo. Michaels throwing out the traditional wrestling stuff is a great way for the match to start, would be a little unrealistic for this thing to start without any bad blood. HBKs way too cocky in the opening minutes, and RVD makes him pay for it, as Michaels gets taken down at each and every turn. Figured that this would happen early. RVD makes Michaels pay on the outside, going after the surgically repaired back, but Shawn baits Van Dam in, getting a breather. RVD finally makes a mistake and I think that Michaels will try to end the match whenever possible, as he makes the first cover after barely any offense. Michaels works over the right leg but Van Dam pokes him in the eye! I love the kind of matches that make faces do heelish things, tbh. Now HBK is the one to miss a risky move, as RVD moves out of the way of a crossbody and Michaels crashes on the outside. RVD gets a few near falls, as it looks like Michaels cant get anything good going, as Van Dam is just too quick and good at avoiding big moves. Sweet Chin Music~! Michaels is way too worn down, but Van Dam almost gets counted down Backlash replay?! NO! RVD moves out of the way but Shawn comes back with a flying forearm. Michaels goes to the top for the elbow drop, but RVD gets back up. Loved the battle on the top rope, as Michaels looks for the Superplex but HBK ends up being the one falling to the canvas!! Van Dam hits a HUGE 5-Star!!! RVD rolls over HBK and its all over!! I loved the match, great choice to have RVD get the win to finally prove himself. HBK will always be in the main event but a loss here would have killed any chance that Rob had of getting back to the top of the card, imo. Michaels not going all out makes me think that a face turn is on the way. He knows that he was way too cocky, and he will admit it soon. This may not happen, but I just dont see Michaels staying heel for much longer. Awesome match and domination of Van Dam made the show so far.
FLAIR IS BLOODIED~! If anyone but Batista did this, Ill be shocked and demand an explanation. But the question is why?? Big Dave already has the briefcase!!
Pyscho Edge and calm, sociopathic Orton. Doesnt get any better than this. TLC is gonna be a WAR.
Womens Championship Match:
One of the greatest feuds in Womens Championship is about to reach its climax tonight, and that V.P. was phenomenal. Didnt realize how much has gone into this feud and it is going to see the next chapter tonight, as Victoria tries to finally get the belt she deserves. Mickies demeanor hasnt changed a bit, as I thought she may be a little more confident tonight, but it doesnt seem to be the case, as Mickie is pretty much terrified of Vicky. Time to get this bitch started. Intense action right off the bat, as Mickie tries to duck (not surprised, tbh) Vicky but the raven-haired diva continues the assault, taking Mickie down with a clothesline. James gets out of the Rear Naked Choke quickly, and the back and forth continues from there. Loved the move by Victoria to jump onto the steel steps but Mickie does the smart thing and sweeps the legs!! Mickie desperation is showing, with two near falls, trying her best to put Vicky away. Victoria is starting to show her impressive arsenal, taking Mickie down with countless athletic moves, loving the moonsault, but she cant put the Champion away quite yet. Mickie just keeps kicking out of pin falls and Vicky is unable to keep her down, as the champ comes back with a few near falls of her own, as the match moves into the latter stages. Mickie-DT!! Victoria gets the foot on the rope!! Mickie has the advantage, as only a minute and a half remain, while Vicky must hurry if she ever wants the Womens Title. Victoria tries all kind of crazy covers, but Mickie just wont stay down, as only thirty seconds remain!! Mickie tries to run away once again GOODNIGHT KISS~! WIDOWS PEAK!!! VICTORIA IS THE NEW WOMENS CHAMPION!!! Well, I guess this was the smart choice. Vicky had been built so well and I thought maybe youd pull a fast one and give Mickie the win, but then the Womens Division would be out of whack. Obviously going to see the rematch at the next PPV, but I have no idea what is going to happen to Mickie. She was unstable to begin with imagine how she will be after this loss. Great match, the best Womens match Ive ever read.
How long will Flair be gone for? Til SSeries, imo.
WWE Tag Team Championship Match:
Speaking of a night of awesome feuds, this ones set to conclude in what is sure to be epic fashion. L&K were the best tag team in the company for a long time, but now the CC have that distinction. Seeing as Benjamin and Helms just won the belts, they win this match, imo. Spank grabs the tag title belt!! And he drops Helms with it!! Then he takes down Benjamin!! The CC win the first fall but DQ but then Shelton gets taken down by S.B. #2 and the 450 Splash!!! Just 1:27 in and we are now going one fall to a finish!! I love this move by The Hooligans, as this feud has gotten more personal over the past few weeks and a thirty minute match like at the GAB wouldnt make sense, as this is all about winning the belts. Love how both teams are now tweeners, really makes things interesting. London almost gets the pin fall but Shelton is able to stay alive. Kendrick seems to be the bigger heel, as he takes Greg down on the outside, and Paul looks for another pin fall, which Helms breaks up. Benjamin is really the bitch of the match thus far, getting taken for a ride and taking the big moves from L&K, but is actually able to stay alive. Shelton is trying so hard to make the tag to Helms, but the Hooligans are so focused on winning that their strategy has become apparent, dont let Benjamin catch his breath at all, as Helms is taken off the ring apron. Shelton gets the momentum going again, hitting the Dragon Whip and then the Enziguiri finally taking in Gregory!!! Not the CC is starting to get rolling, going after L&K with a ton of double teams, including the awesome gutbuster, but Kendrick is able to break that pin fall up. Kendrick is proving to be a STUD in this match, taking Helms down and then hitting Sliced Bread #2 doing almost all the work for his team. London hits the awesome Shooting Star but Benji saves the titles!!! Shelton is now flying all over the place, taking Kendrick out on the outside before coming back into the ring and TAKING OUT HELMS ON ACCIDENT~!! Love the difference between the two men on each team, with Kendrick dominating on the outside, while Shelton dominates on the inside, really shows how well these two squads are matched up. A few more near falls, as this match has been nothing but nonstop action, with all four men flying around at 100 MPH. Shelton hits the T-Bone!!! London kicks out!! Great action between London and Benjamin, as Helms and Kendrick both seem out of it. Near falls all over the place, with Shelton having the clear advantage, while London almost steals a victory. The finish was absolutely phenomenal as BENJAMIN DAMN NEAR BREAKS THE NECK OF LONDON!!! Quite the way for the match to end and I thought it was smart for a few reasons. First, it makes Helms and Benjamin look like the better team without a doubt, as a roll up or screwy finish would make them look weak as the champions. Second, Shelton got the fall and London took it, just like at the GAB. Gonna make Kendrick mad, imo split on the way?? Where do both teams go from here?? Not really sure who the next challenger will be for the CC. Rey/Chavo?? New Breed?? Someone else?? Cant wait to see what happens after this fantastic match.
No Mercy sounds good Id go to the show, considering its in Chicago.
KK~ Should be an awesome match between him and Rocky. Dont disappoint.
WWE Championship Match:
The V.P, which we saw on Raw, truly showed what this feud has been all about. Eight months of desperation, of regret, or back and forth that all comes to a head here tonight. Orton has taken everything from Edge, and now The Rated R Superstar got the title back, but still hasnt gotten revenge on Orton. That is still to come tonight. No better way for this match to start than by having both men go at it with right hands all over the place, as we know the match is going to go at a ridiculous pace. The exchange on the outside was good, as Orton and Edge both do some early damage, with Edge getting taken down by a dropkick and Orton being thrown into the steel. Very shocked to see Orton get the early advantage, as it seems like Edges emotions are too much for him to handle, while Orton is cool as ever, taking Edge down with a steel chair shot and then some suplexes onto the chair, doing as much damage as possible. Orton climbs the ladder but probably knows that he wont get close, as he continues to dominate the WWE Champion. Loved the arrogance from Orton, shows why he is so awesome and also so hated. One of my favorite wrestling characters in history, tbh. Edge then goes a little psychotic, as he needed to find a way back into the match. Steel chair shots a plenty before finally nailing Orton across the face BUSTING HIM WIDE OPEN~. Conchairto misses and then Orton HITS THE RKO!! Orton makes it pretty far up, but theres no way that this match is ending right now, but Randy still holds the advantage, headbutting Edge off the top. Orton tries to nail Edge with the chair a few times but Edge pushes Orton off the top of the ladder and to the outside!!! Both men are down, as the match is anyones right now, with the war beginning to unfold. Orton just misses taking a huge shot RKO THROUGH THE TABLE!! Orton has been in control for much longer than I thought, with Edge having yet to hit any of his big moves. Edge Spears Orton off the ladder!!! Edge begins to stack the table AS THE RATED R ARMY COME DOWN TO THE RING~!! Masters and Mercury take out Edge and get the ladder ready for Orton RHODES AND SMITH~?! WTF?? Havent seen these guys in forever, better be a good explanation for this one, Mac. Orton looks set to grab the title but here comes LITA! Knew that she would show her beautiful self only to get RKOd!! Now it is just down to the two men who HATE each other, as the back and forth continues. SPEAR~!! Edge climbs the ladder and can easily win the title BUT HE TAKES OUT ORTON THROUGH THE TABLES!! To quote Joey Styles, OH MY GOD!! Edge gets his much needed retribution, before he slowly climbs the ladder AND KEEPS HIS TITLE!!! Edge wins the match and the war was absolutely fantastic. The wreckage shows just how much both men gave to this match. Whats with the final sentence?? Surely the biggest face on Raw wont be turning heel?? Please no. Anyway, an amazing match to (I hope) end the feud between these two.
MVP gets the shot TOMORROW NIGHT?? Seems a little early and I am very intrigued as to what you will do. Surely Edge wont lose, but I dont wanna see MVP get buried. Interesting to say the least.
No shock to me or anyone else watching that the Draft Lottery is what Vinces announcement is. Should be a good edition to SNME. Not really sure I see the WWE or World Champion changing, as Unforgiven is only 8 days after SNME, so itd be weird. But who knows. Taker~!? Guess we know that the return is coming soon. I never expected Vince to fire Steph, but I did think wed see Hunter or Cena. 2 SD! GMs? That should be interesting. SD! has so many awesome storylines right now, its ridiculous, tbh.
World Heavyweight Championship Match:
I understand the reasoning for not having the V.P. for this match written out in full, but they have been around each other for almost three months. Sure they werent feuding the entire time, but this is more than just a match with five weeks of build. This is when we find out, without any doubt, if KK is a true Champion. He will be a proven one if he can beat The Rock something I think hell do. The old-school introductions were great, really gives the match an even bigger feel, imo. The exchange of right hands was perfect for the start of the match, as both men are trying to prove why they are the best. And of course nothing is decided early. ROCK BOTTOM THIS EARLY!? Didnt think so. The trash talk by KK was hilarious after he threw Rocky over the top rope, but then The Great One got the best of the exchange, dropping the WHC with a neckbreaker, kicking this match into a higher gear. Rocky is just dominating the match outside the ring, as he taking someone of a heel approach, slamming the knees of Kennedy into the ring poster multiple times. LMAO at Mister Jabroni classic Rock, tbh. Finally Kennedy gets in some offense, taking Rocky back with an elbow, but that doesnt stop TGO, as he goes for the SharpShooter but Kennedy powers out. Rocky finally gets the first near fall of the match, taking Kennedy down with a neckbreaker, but of course we see the K.O. Spine Buster and then THE SHARPSHOOTER!!! Rockys version of that classic submission is amazing, tbh, love the way he applies the most pressure that he can. Kennedy is getting very close to the ropes but Rock continues his heel-like offense, stomping the back. Kennedy is able to get back into the drivers seat, owning The Rock both verbally and physically, as he gets a few near falls. GREEN BAY PLUNGE~! ROCK KICKS OUT!! Rock comes back with a head of steam, hitting the belly-to-belly and then ROCK BOTTOM~! KENNEDY GETS THE SHOULDER UP!! Some more back and forth until PEOPLES ELBOW~! KENNEDY KICKS OUT AGAIN!! KENTON BOMB~ but The Rock moves out of the way!! Awesome amount of reversals, as both men are trying to hit a finisher MIC CHECK~!! KENNEDY RETAINS!!! Great show of respect from both men after the match, with the handshakes always getting the crowd happy. A pretty good match that did the job it was supposed to do, get KK over as the face of SD!. Great job.
TRIPLE H IS IN THE BUILDING~! GAB repeat?? Kennedy waves Triple H and tries his hardest, before it becomes apparent the physical toll that his match with Rocky took, as Hunter lays him out with the Pedigree!! Stephania may have reached her breaking point, as Triple H gets away before the security guards can get close to him. Kennedy is laid out, his SummerSlam ruined BATISTA~!! DAVE IS CASHING THIS BITCH IN NOW?! The blood of Flair is on the MITB, affirming everything everyone though earlier, as Batista goes right after KK. DEMON BOMB BATISTA IS THE NEW CHAMPION~!! Simply amazing writing, Mac. Batistas character has changed so much, as he is not only the nastiest S.O.B. on the roster, but we may have seen a bit of regreat on his face. Dave is the World Champion again, but you know he probably has mixed emotions. Not the way that I saw KKs title reign ending, tbh at least not before I saw that Flair was bloodied. Throw in the fact that KK/Rock was the last match even while Orton/Edge had been building for six months. The foreshadowing was there, but the actual occurrence was one of the most shocking things in BTB history. SD! can go any number of ways. Personally, I see KK feuding with Triple H in a possible #1 contenders feud while Batista faces either Cena, Taker or Rock, before Ric returns. Eventually, I can see Kennedy getting the belt back, but I have no idea when. This wont get a star rating because it wasnt really a match, but this was the best segment I have ever read from you.
GOD DAMN~! That was one hell of a PPV. Like Legend said, the matches werent all they could have been, but that is to be expected when ten are on the card. MOTN for me was the TLC match, followed by CC vs. Hooligans. The ending, as I previously stated, was phenomenal. You somehow keep me interested for more, as your storylines keep getting better and better. I dont think you will ever fall into a rut, tbh. I know it may be another week or two before Raw is posted, but I just cant wait for the fallout from this show and also the Draft at SNME. One of the greatest PPVs in BTB history, no doubt in my mind.

The last time Purdue played UConn, the Boilermakers lost by 50 on their home floor in 2008 and the six juniors who provide the team's nucleus likely remember all the details.
Now comes Tuesday's second-round game at Gampel against the No. 1 Huskies (33-1), who have won 21 straight.
"It will be a big test for our team," junior Drey Mingo said."But it will be fun. This is what the tournament is all about and we are really excited about it."
"We're excited to get this win [over Kansas State]," said junior guard Brittany Rayburn. "We want to enjoy it right now and we'll begin to think about UConn tonight. We're looking forward to the challenge."
Purdue coach Sharon Versyp led the Boilermakers the day UConn beat them, 100-50. She knows what the Huskies program is all about.
:"We'll be on the national stage," Versyp said. "They are the best team in the country and this is a chance for us to play at the highest level. We'll need to compete, play as hard as possible and hopefully enjoy the experience.
"They run an amazing system and have very talented players. They don't get rattled. If something breaks down, they turn to a second and third option. For us, we can't just do one thing to stop them. We;ll have to do a variety of things because we have so much respect for their talent and what they've done.
"We feel we play halfway decent defense, but we'll have to do a lot better and we can't let them get up and down the floor."

Tonga Minister's Alleged Misconduct Under Review
NUKUALOFA, Tonga (Matangi Tonga, Feb. 13, 2013) – Tonga's new Minister of Police, Prisons and Fire Services and Revenue Services, Siosifa Tu'utafaiva, is being challenged by a disciplinary committee of the Tonga Law Society.
Last year, 2012, the disciplinary committee recommended to the Chief Justice to suspend Siosifa Tu'utafaiva's law practicing license for three years for alleged professional misconduct.
Chief Justice Hon. Michael Scott, in a judgment on 4 December 2012, quashed the recommendation and referred the matter back to the committee for the matter of penalty to be reconsidered according to law.
The Vice-President of the Tonga Law Society Vuna Fa'otusia said today, February 13, the committee was now waiting on Sifa's written response in regards to the complaint, which should be submitted by Friday February 15. After that they will make a new recommendation.
The disciplinary committee consisted of Tonga Law Society President Laki Niu, Petunia Tupou and Vuna. The complaints came from two of Sifa's former clients 'Aisea Vaitaki and Sione Vao.
Sifa, who is a senior law practitioner and Member of Parliament, became the new Minister of Police, Prisons and Fire Services and Revenue Services on February 2.
When Sifa appealed the recommendation, Chief Justice Scott , quashed the recommendation and returned it to the disciplinary committee.
"In my view the appellant should either have been warned beforehand that the committee would proceed to consider penalty immediately after any finding of guilt or the hearing should have been adjourned to give the appellant a final opportunity to make representations as to penalty," he said.

Students in the health care curriculum at Pitt Community College now have the latest ultrasound technology to help them learn even more about the human body. Pitt Community College held demonstrations Wednesday to highlight the Sequoia Echocardiography System that is now being used to train health care students specializing in ultrasound. The new equipment allows the technician to see a clearer picture of the organs being examined, such as blockages to the heart. The new equipment can also project images in color to get a closer look at the blood flow to an organ.

The 65-year-old, who is expected to soon leave the position as America's top diplomat, caught a virus while in Europe.
18:28, UK, Saturday 15 December 2012
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has suffered a concussion after fainting while battling a stomach virus.
The virus, which she caught while on a recent visit to Europe, caused her to miss a planned trip to North Africa and the Gulf.
"While suffering from a stomach virus, Secretary Clinton became dehydrated and fainted, sustaining a concussion," the State Department said in a statement.
"She has been recovering at home and will continue to be monitored regularly by her doctors. At their recommendation, she will continue to work from home next week, staying in regular contact with department and other officials.
"She is looking forward to being back in the office soon."
Ms Clinton had been due to publicly testify on Thursday at open hearings in both the House and Senate on the outcome of a State Department investigation into an attack on the Benghazi consulate in which the ambassador and three other Americans died.
The 65-year-old, who is expected to soon leave the position as America's top diplomat, is known for her gruelling travel schedule.
She has visited 112 countries since taking up the position when Barack Obama became President in 2009.
On Wednesday, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland has said the stomach virus had made Ms Clinton "really very ill".

The first full-length trailer for the upcoming The Expendables 2 was released last month and provided plenty of action and explosions for Sylvester Stallone and his company of aging action stars to contend with.
The latest trailer is no different, providing plenty of action, and injecting a few moments of humor, including a Terminator joke at Arnold Schwarzenegger's expense, as well as as more footage of Chuck Norris, including a shot of Norris, Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Bruce Willis and Jason Statham all lined up and firing their machine guns before the trailer goes down its long list of stars. There isn't much story revealed, so, if you must know, Expendables 2 sees Stallone and company out for revenge after one of their own is murdered.
Expendables 2 was directed by Simon West (Con Air) and co-written by Stallone, Richard Wenk (The Mechanic), Ken Kaufman (Space Cowboys), and David Agosto. Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Randy Couture, and Terry Crews all return as the Expendables mercenary team, while Liam Hemsworth and Yu Nan play new recruits Billy the Kid and Maggie. Jean-Claude Van Damme does his knife-wielding best as the sequel's villain.

Warily, Baseball Prepares to Make Murdoch Owner of the Dodgers
By RICHARD SANDOMIR
Published: March 8, 1998
On Feb. 5, on the Fox studio lot in Los Angeles, three baseball executives, including the sport's acting commissioner, Bud Selig, conducted one of the more critical interviews the game had ever undertaken. The topic was the proposed $320 million sale of the Dodgers, one of the game's fabled franchises, to the buyer seated across the lunch table: Rupert Murdoch.
Baseball's wariness about Mr. Murdoch was deep. The prospective owner, Mr. Murdoch's Fox Group, has extraordinarily deep pockets, and the baseball executives feared its ability to spend without constraint could accelerate the payroll explosions that endanger the sport's finances. More important, however, was the influence of Mr. Murdoch's company over the local television rights to nearly two dozen baseball clubs; granting Fox the franchise, and with it access to the financial statements of all the 29 other clubs, could instantly make Mr. Murdoch the game's most powerful figure.
The baseball contingent emerged from the two-hour face-off impressed but still wary, and that apprehension suffuses the sport as its owners pore over an investigative report and financial documents trying to determine Mr. Murdoch's makeup and motives.
But interviews with club executives and baseball officials indicate that, absent a late bout of nerves, the sport will by March 19 formally approve the sale of the Dodgers -- the most expensive purchase of a sports franchise ever -- to an outfit run by an aggressive, continent-hopping dealmaker with no sentimental or historic attachment to the country's most tradition-bound sport.
If baseball does welcome Mr. Murdoch, though, it will do so with fingers crossed -- that rules governing revenue sharing or precluding outside licensing or sponsorship deals will not be broken and that, in short, Mr. Murdoch will not run roughshod over their game.
''I can't judge whether he would be a good or a bad owner,'' said Michael Eisner, the chairman of the Walt Disney Company, which owns the controlling stake in the Anaheim Angels.
''But I don't think he would not follow the rules.''
In 1957, Walter O'Malley convulsed baseball's economics by moving the Dodgers from Brooklyn to California's virgin major league market, proving that even the most beloved team is a bottom-line business property to be exploited for its strategic value.
Now, Mr. O'Malley's son, Peter, who had grown disaffected with the sport's other owners in recent years, is about to unsettle baseball again -- leaving the sport with the disquieting parting gift of selling his legacy to a media powerhouse known for shaking up every business he acquires.
The deal for the Dodgers -- including Dodger Stadium and its 300 acres, the Dodgertown spring training site and minor league team in Vero Beach, Fla., and a training complex in the Dominican Republic -- closes an era when families like the Yawkeys and Griffiths and Stonehams made owning a baseball team their exclusive business. Soaring player salaries have routed them, and they have been replaced primarily by investors made wealthy elsewhere and giant corporations.
The Dodgers' prospective owner, the Fox Group, is part of Mr. Murdoch's publicly traded multinational media empire, The News Corpation, which has annual revenues exceeding $11 billion.
The opposition of five of the other 14 National League teams would block Fox's purchase of the Dodgers, but most baseball officials suspect that even such modest resistance will not materialize.
''Fox was the ideal successor to our family,'' Peter O'Malley said recently. ''I'm at peace.''
'A Big Load Of Influence'
With media interests on five continents, Rupert Murdoch comes to baseball with enormous financial clout.
He owns network television rights for baseball, the National Football League and the National Hockey League.
His FX and Fox Sports Net networks carry games for $43 million a year. His substantial investment in baseball, then, is seen either as a vote of confidence in the sport's recovery from labor strife or worrisome leverage over his future partners in ownership.
But it is Mr. Murdoch's consolidation of the once balkanized universe of regional sports networks into the Fox Sports Net that worries people.
Mr. Murdoch has parlayed alliances with Liberty Media, a unit of the cable television giant Tele-Communications Incorporated, and Cablevision Systems, into ownership stakes in 20 regional sports networks like Fox Sports West in Los Angeles, Fox Sports South in Atlanta and the MSG Network in New York.
In Los Angeles, the network, through its two Fox Sports West outlets, has the television rights to the Dodgers, Angels, Lakers, Clippers, Kings and Anaheim Mighty Ducks. In all, Mr. Murdoch pays at least $100 million a year for the local cable television rights of 22 baseball clubs.
No team owner with media interests possesses such influence. Disney owns 80 percent of ESPN, a national rights holder. Time Warner, the Atlanta Braves' owner, televises Braves game over its TBS cable network. The Tribune Company owns the Cubs and WGN-TV, which carries Cubs games, and five stations, like Channel 11 in New York, that televise the local games of six teams, like the Yankees.
''He's going to wield a big load of influence,'' said Tony Tavares, the Angels' president.
''Every team is supposed to have one vote, but can he influence more than one? If he pays enough for a team's rights, is it tantamount to his having a profit participation in another team?''
Baseball has long been suspicious of media companies' owning teams because they can offset club losses with profits from their main businesses.

Customers are like livestock

It was during my most vulnerable years that I felt best about my body. Ironic isn't it? When I flip through the pages of old yearbooks, I see a smiling face and someone who was too busy worrying about being a teen to obsess over flabby arms or thick thighs. I was neither big nor small, but just right. My legs were not slim, but they helped me play tennis for three hours a day and hike on the weekends. And I was as much in love with a big bowl of fresh greens as I was with a generous helping of ice-cream. It was surprisingly a good time for me body image-wise.
It was in my twenties that things began to change. I was appalled when I saw a girl who looked to be about 10 years old say, "I'm so fat" to her girlfriend. Friends of mine began pinching non-existent fat on their thighs. One girl wanted to buy fat burning skin cream to use on her cheeks-her face, not her behind. A few people commented on my "big legs" and I too started obsessing over movie stars in magazines. Looking back, it was a friend telling me to stop reading "that trash" that I began to see how far I had come from where I had been.
Recently, I was watching The Rosie Show on OWN when I caught this:
Rosie: "You were saying your mom put you on Weight Watchers when you were 10?"
Actress Sara Ramirez: "Yeah I was pretty young. It's generation to generation. A lot of these body image issues get passed down. I was trained pretty early to see food as either an obsession or just a very negative, horrible thing that I had to feel guilty about."
Although I never reached a point where I was obsessed or felt guilty about food or my body, I have empathy for those who do. I was probably just a hop, skip and a jump away from getting there myself.
As a teenager I already knew my body was good enough. Being immersed in a fat-hating culture made me forget. One of our posts this week reminded me of that. Diet isn't just about losing weight. Diet is the fuel we give ourselves to live healthier lives. Scroll down to see what I mean.

Reviews for WRC Powerslide
Why is this a spin-off and not the new standard?sonicchaos | March 25, 2014 | See all sonicchaos's reviews »
What is it about? It's a great racing game as you're probably not expected. If I'd say this game is like Showdown to Dirt I would be close, but not fair. Why? Because WRC isn't exactly as good or as popular as Dirt, but they do like to pretend that it's much more simulation-oriented than Dirt's recent titles. Well, yes and no. I'm more inclined towards arcade, and I could never get into WRC the way I got into Dirt, but both franchises offer lots of customisations and control options. So, while the standard WRC games suck as much as Dirt Showdown does, WRC Powerslide shines as much as the classic DiRT. Enough with the comparison. How does it play? WRC Powerslide is an isometric arcade racing game (I hope that's accurate), with a great sense of control, speed and perspective. There are nice power-ups in the same style as Blur or Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing or Mario Karts, but with a pure rally twist. It is amazing fun. How does it look? The engine is obviously the same as the latest WRC, but if you change the perspective like that it really looks like a tiny game with huge production value. It looks great, it sounds great, and it's superb Well, the real downside of this game is that there is no progression system other the same old racing game "race this, win point, unlock that and so on". But it's still a great value and lots of fun, a game that will make you come back over and over.

At last an in depth look at the popular Reising submachine gun. Although the weapon fared poorly in its military application, it was very successful in its law enforcement role. The book covers all of the various models in great detail, including the police and military versions. Also covered is the British and Canadian testing in 1940. Its use by the US Marines, and law enforcement agencies. There are a lot of original documents and sales literature describing the gun and its rare accessories. Many detailed photos of the weapons, experimental prototypes, manuals and accessories. A must read for submachine gun and history buffs.

lonely betta
my brothers male betta has been with us for about a month. a couple of days ago we upgraded his place into a little plastic bowl about half a gallon and he built a bubble nest today. i want to get a female for him but not in the same bowl im gonna get her one. and the babies another. is this a good idea? i dont have enough money to buy a 2 gallon tank im only 14.
I usually recommend a 2 gallon or larger for bettas but I have some of mine in 1.5 gallon critter keepres. Also, if you plan on breeding, please do your research first. A lot of preparation goes into it.
i wasnt planning on breeding bettas but it does seem interesting and i am going to research them. i am breeding swordtails tho and my gouramis dont wanna breed or my cories. my swordtail fry dont survive. so i might try betta cause i heard the father takes care of his fry and i think thats adorable.
Yeah, male bettas take care of the fry until they become free swimming. I'm sorry you can't get your fish to breed.
its ok thx. do the males eat the babies when they free swim?but my one female swordtail is pregnant and should be giving birth the 20th of october hopefully.
When the babies become free swimming then you take the male out.
Here is a link to the Breeding Bettas sticky in the breeding section of the betta forum. http://www.fishforum.com/breeding-be...-bettas-30005/
oh i have to think twice about breeding bettas because of the clean water and the fighting and the food they have to eat! i wont be able to care for 100 babies i have two jars!!
lol! Its a lot of work and you could get a LOT of babies.
at least you are kind enough to realize that you cant care for that many, so you wont breed them. thats very wise of you and save up a little at a time, maybe mow a lawn or rake some leaves? you can get a 10 gallon for around $12 at walmart

Actress Amanda Peet and her adorable daughter Frances, 1, are featured on the cover of this month's Cookie magazine. The new mom weighs in on the vaccination debate, saying that parents who choose not to vaccinate their kids are "parasites."
Amanda says that she did a lot of research on the subject, and spoke to doctors such as the esteemed Dr. Paul Offit, who is involved in the Every Child By Two organization. "Once we had spoken, I was shocked at the amount of misinformation floating around, particularly in Hollywood," she says.
"I buy 99 percent organic food for Frankie, and I don't like to give her medicine or put sunscreen on her," she tells the magazine. "But now that I've done my research, vaccines do not concern me."
Amanda then goes on to add, "Frankly, I feel that parents who don't vaccinate their children are parasites."
Those are pretty strong words, and will likely draw a response from celebrity moms like Jenny McCarthy, who has been very outspoken in her criticism of vaccinations.
Amanda feels so strongly about importance of vaccinations that she will soon be appearing in public service announcements for Every Child By Two.
What do you think of Amanda's statement?

Tubac, AZ, March 06, 2013 --(PR.com)-- After two months of beta testing, www.WorldClips.TV announced today that their direct download stock footage website is fully functional and offers a pricing policy unique to the industry; unlimited downloads, no promotion period, for $25 US for the whole year.
Company CEO Gary Isaacson explained, "99% of video content creation is now done by independents and their distribution medium of choice is the web. Web content creators as a group are getting more sophisticated in their use of editing and special effects, the only thing holding them back has been cost. Using stock footage can make a production look big-league, but despite some pretty deceptive subscription practices offered by a few providers out there, using stock footage has continued to be expensive. Not any more."
www.WorldClips.TV has an extensive collection of 5000 ready-to-use QuickTime clips from 50 world destination easily downloadable from its website.
"Other companies have larger collections from thousands of shooters without a lot of quality control," continued Isaacson. "I can vouch for the quality of every clip in our collection and I should know, I shot them."
The stock footage business has been in turmoil of late as lower prices for HD footage has made it difficult for professional shooters and some mid-range distributors to remain economically viable. "What does HD even mean anymore? If I shoot, hand-held, out a window while driving a speeding car, using my iPhone camera, it can be called HD. A hamster can push a camcorder button. What makes a great shot is a great shooter with a great camera, not the format," Isaacson jokes to make a point. "What we've done is repurpose our SD collection, footage that was good enough for 'Oprah,' 'Wheel of Fortune,' 'The Late Show' and '48 Hours' just a few years ago. This is still great footage, but we think it's best future use is by cost-conscious independents who want to distribute their creations through video upload websites such as YouTube, Vimeo, Blip and others. It's also a great way for website designers to put some zip in their creations instead of using static still shots."
www.WorldClips.TV is a division of Isaacson Communications, Inc., a multi-Emmy nominated creator of network and syndicated programming as well as a creator of HD stock footage for many HD aggregators. Gary Isaacson's exclusive 4K UltraHD footage has just been accepted for representation by Getty Images.

Jamie Grace Harper may be the world's only musician with Tourette syndrome, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, echolalia, anxiety disorder—and a Grammy nod. Nominated for Best Contemporary Christian Music Song (for her breakout hit "Hold Me"), Harper, 20, attended February's Grammy ceremony with her family; the rest of the year, she lives in Atlanta with her parents, James and Mona Harper, cofounders and pastors of Kingdom City Church.
Harper is open about her struggles with Tourette syndrome, which started when she was about 8 years old in the form of tics—involuntary movements and sounds—and an obsession to repeat certain behaviors and phrases. "It took our lives for a spin," she says of the diagnosis. "I learned early on that Tourette's is not life-threatening, but it is life-altering."
Harper has been crazy busy since releasing her debut album, One Song at a Time, in September 2011. In addition to more than 100 shows, she's been working on a new album, writing a novel, recording a Christmas song (with older sister Morgan) for a holiday project, speaking on the Revolve Tour (for teen girls), acting in a movie (Grace Unplugged, due in 2013), and, incredibly, graduating from college, with a degree in children's ministry from Point University (formerly Atlanta Christian College). All before her 21st birthday.

Blue Water Seafood tosses its net out and expands
Fresh catch
Published: Tuesday, December 23, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 22, 2008 at 11:15 p.m.
Name: Blue Water Seafood
Location: The business originally opened on 230 Kanuga Road in Hendersonville, but moved to 532 Kanuga Road in 2004.
Date opened: July 2003
Owners/manager: Tracy and David Griffin
Number of employees: 12
Goods/services offered: Fresh, smoked seafood, including grouper, snapper, mahi mahi, flounder, cod and haddock and shellfish. Domestic and imported wines are also sold. Weekly specials include all-you-can-eat peel and eat shrimp for $16.95 on Tuesdays, all you can eat mussels and your choice of a glass of selected wine or a glass of draft beer for $14.95 on Wednesdays and 25-cent oysters on the half shell on Thursdays. Blue Water Seafood will ship products anywhere and orders can be placed through the companys Web site or by e-mailing Tracy Griffin, the restaurants co-owner.
How did the business get started?
My husband David is a former police officer and I was an eighth-grade school teacher, Tracy said. We were living in Charlotte, and we were looking to do something different and get back home to Western North Carolina. We love being here and we love the area. Its (Blue Water Seafood) a very unique concept. You will not find another place like it in WNC where you have a fresh seafood market, restaurant and wine shop all under one roof.
Whats new?
The couple just completed a new 1,000-square-foot wholesale and smoke house facility on property next door to the restaurant. The business is HACCP certified, which means they are certified by the U.S. government to distribute seafood wholesale to restaurants in addition to Blue Water Seafoods retail business, Tracy said.
This (facility) has widened our ability to service restaurants all across Western North Carolina, she said. Our business has picked up a lot since we built the facility and since a distribution warehouse in Charlotte closed down a couple of weeks ago. We have picked up several of those accounts because they were looking around for someone who could meet their needs and we had just finished building this facility a few weeks ago.
The business also recently expanded the restaurants dining area by opening a section located on the buildings second floor.
This has been a very popular feature, Tracy said. There is a wonderful view of Hendersonville and when the weather is nice, people love to come up here for a nice dinner and we also book it for parties.
Hours of operation: Mondays, 11 a.m. 4 p.m.; Tuesdays through Thursdays, 11 a.m. 8:30 p.m.,; Fridays and Saturdays, 11 a.m. 9 p.m. Closed Sundays.
Contact information: Telephone: 697-0503; Web site: www.bluewaterseafood.net; e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com.

My 8 month old has had a runny nose with green snot lasting about a month. Is this normal?

Hi guys! It was just an idea, but since I have more free time over the summer, I was thinking I would see if anyone would want a commission done. The first set are visual, listed here;
One Eye Commission: 5-25pts (See collection "The Eyes are the Windows to the Soul")
One Short Lyric Commission: 5-10pts (See "Love Somebody" and "Brave")
One Long Lyric Commission: 15-25pts (See "Mirror")
One Lyric Scramble Commission: 5-25pts (See "Catching My Breath")
These others would be literature based, but because they would be more difficult, I cannot guarantee that they can be done. I'm still a budding writer, too, so please don't expect too much. The cost will vary due to length and difficulty, so I don't have any prices down. Simply suggest a topic or a short storyline to me and I'll see what can be done
If any commissions are desired, please PM me with the idea or request and max. points you would be willing to spend.
As a final warning, PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT TOO MUCH. I'm really not that great, so if I'm warning you now for fear of later dissatisfaction. Also, in case some of these commissions never get finished, please pay AFTER the deviation is posted. Thank you for struggling through that insanely long journal and comments are always welcome

Writer, poet, editor, political strategist and feminist Chirlane McCray, 58, became the second Black First Lady of New York City last night with the exhilarating election of her husband, Bill de Blasio, 52, who became Gotham's first Democratic mayor in 20 years defeating Republican Joe Lhota. The power couple have been together close to two decades, and have two children, 16-year-old Dante de Blasio and 18-year-old Chiara de Blasio.
McCray's appeal transcends race, true, but her unapologetic sister-girl flare makes us even more proud. Self-described on Twitter as an "activist, writer, loving partner of @deblasionyc and Brooklyn mom," McCray makes it clear that she is "speaking the truth as [she] knows it." It's something she's been doing for decades.
McCray shared intimate details about her and Bill's courtship in the below excerpt from the New York Times:
By the time she started a job in the press office of New York's City Hall in 1991, there was no confusion: she had zero interest in dating a man, a message that Mr. de Blasio, then a lanky, bearded operative across the building, jauntily ignored.
He flirted with her mercilessly, she said, calling nonstop and trying to steal an unwelcome kiss. "I actually told him, 'Slow this down,' " Ms. McCray said. Her resistance became less diplomatic: "Back off."
But a romance blossomed: Mr. de Blasio, five years her junior, won over her family with an overnight visit that earned him a new moniker: "Brother Bill."
