Ron Dupont doesn't want to be known as the roach guy, but these days, he just can't help it. Dupont says his is the only pet store he knows of selling roaches -- live roaches -- something desperately needed for owners of most reptiles. And what's worse, Dupont's roaches are notoriously tasty. "We call them 'tropical cream-filled roaches' because they're so juicy," he says. Dupont sells thousands of the little buggers every week at 8 to 39 cents apiece, and soon, he fears, he'll likely be known for them. Really, he'd rather be known for his reptiles. Dupont's been in the reptile business since he started catching snakes at 15 years old in his back yard and selling them to pet stores. Now at 63, he imports reptiles from around the world at his shop, Wild Cargo Pets & Supplies. He sells about 2,700 lizards a year. Usually, boa constrictors start from $119 to $149, and monitor lizards can be found for at least $40. Dupont will also special-order, like yellow phase tree pythons that run about $700. Dupont also sells tarantulas ($20 to $150 for rare ones) and an odd assortment of reptile food, including bloodworms, mealworms, and crickets. But more than anything, Dupont can't keep the roaches in the store. "People will come back and say, 'Man those roaches are juicy.' They can't get enough of them."
As owner and landlord for the past 40 years of the Fort Lauderdale Swap Shop, the second-largest flea market in the country, Preston Henn knows a lot about sales pitches and asphalt-level marketing. Want to gather a crowd? Get the calliope rumbling and a barker pitching dreams and lurid promises. Henn long ago got the idea of drawing customers to his 80 acres of marketing chaos by givin' 'em a circus and amusement rides.
"We've got a free circus every day," says Henn, the old pitchman stepping up. "We've got a carnival with a Ferris wheel and bumpy rides. I liked the circus when I was a kid. I liked the rides, the scarier the better. What do I like about it now? It works." Best Liquor Store Liquor and Wine Merchant
In an item-by-item price comparison with six other liquor stores in the area on 1.75-liter bottles of Myers Rum, Jose Cuervo Tequila, and Absolut Vodka, Liquor and Wine Merchant tied for the second cheapest, with a combined total of $100.97 for the three. What makes the dollar stretch further in the fun-to-shop atmosphere is the advice proffered by the round-cheeked boys behind the counter, who really seem to know a bit about tippin' the ol' bottle. In keeping with their motto, "See the Round Boys for a Square Deal," the thick-shouldered young man behind the counter advised, "Try Svedka instead of Absolut. It's distilled five times instead of three." With a price tag of $19.99 instead of $30.99 for Absolut, that brings the total down to $89.97 for three hefty bottles of good party liquor. So when it's time to throw down with friends, the Round Boys are going to leave you enough dough for mixers.
If someone's too ugly, obnoxious, or just plain weird to sit in the audience at a taping of the Jerry Springer Show, where do they go? Apparently, to watch NWA (National Wrestling Alliance) matches, which take place at various locales around the state, often at the Bergeron Rodeo Grounds in Davie. The freakishness, thank goodness, isn't limited to the spectators. Inside the ring, you'll see a parade of waxed chests, tree-trunk thighs, and teeny man-bikinis. Current NWA superstars include "Black Nature Boy" Scoot Andrews. In this warped entertainment vortex, the crowd goes ape-shit for characters like Double Deuce, a tag team of two guys whose weenies are feebly noticeable through their clownish purple spandex. Their masculinity, however, is not to be doubted when they bust out their signature finishing move -- called "Balls on Your Chin." Such antics, of course, make for great family entertainment. Almost better than the wrestling in the ring is the sideshow -- when a bunch of 9-year-olds run up and tell the losing wrestlers that they're pussies; then the bikini-clad 35-year-olds growl and chase the kids around the arena. Each show gets you about three hours of delicious weirdness, for about 12 cheap bucks.
Wedged between a Vietnamese soup house and a tropical ice cream parlor, Rankin Records rounds out a truly multiculti strip mall (there's a store selling Middle Eastern goods around the corner) along busy Highway 441. Unlike usual reggae suspects you'll find at your suburban CD megastore, Rankin leaves the pricey Bob Marley box sets for Johnny-come-lately types and instead focuses its stock on the needs of discriminating West Indian expats. Put it this way -- you probably won't find the collected works of Ras Shiloh at your local Best Buy. Obscure offerings issued on tiny, mom-'n'-pop labels abound. Small and loud (like any good reggae shop should be), Rankin is the place to find local recording artists from Screwdriver to Tanto Irie on CD, cassette, and even 12-inch vinyl singles. A case full of DVD and videotapes is where you'll finally discover that live Yellowman show you've been looking for. As you'd expect, Rankin's interior is flush with new vinyl albums, including one whole wall devoted to soca compilations decorated with colorful and racy cover art (who knew they made bathing suits that small?) and a healthy selection of old-school soul and R&B discs for Gramps to pore over. Most impressive is the store's commitment to representing every segment of the West Indian musical universe, its bins packed with "calypsoca" collections galore. With seminal artists like Mighty Sparrow acknowledging the presence of the Trini Massive in South Florida, Rankin has the island vibe sewn up.
You probably haven't noticed Modern Music tucked back from this busy boulevard, where you risk life and limb by gawking. But this shop has garnered the attention of the music-minded because of its friendly staff and range of instruments. This isn't one of those cavernous chain music stores; you're always within conversation range of the people who have the answers -- and they're always ready to dicker on the prices. Inventory includes instruments, electronic equipment, music books, and accessories. Four long rows of electric and acoustic guitars dangle from above, including an eye-catching, butterscotch-blond Fender bass for $899, which is appealing enough to serve as a wall hanging. A Jay Turser acoustic guitar features the Statue of Liberty carved into the wood below the strings, a patriotic flourish selling for just under $400. For a more exotic sound, pick up a darbuka drum for only $54. The store doesn't cater just to five-piece rock bands either. Its rent-to-own plan for orchestral instruments begins as low as $16 a month for the basics -- flutes, trumpets, violins, and the like -- to $113 a month for high-end pieces, such as the baritone sax.
Along with a thorough selection, visual impact is crucial at a record store. You want people to walk in and immediately wonder, preferably out loud, "Holy crap, where'd they find all this freakin' vinyl?!" If sheer overload is the name of the game, newcomer Super Soul Records gets the gold. Do the math: 500 milk crates, each holding about 100 records. That's about, what? Fifty thousand freakin' records, that's what. Storeowner King George Johnson has been a vinyl archaeologist in New York City for more than 20 years, unearthing rare soul, disco, funk, Latin, R&B, acid jazz, and techno records since the early '80s. He and his son Jamal packed up a U-Haul and shipped a portion of his collection to Fort Lauderdale to open Super Soul. "King Herc used to come by the house all the time," Jamal, who's the store manager, says of his heady Harlem upbringing. The 20-year-old Jamal has been immersed in his dad's collection since he can remember, and he often hits local hip-hop events, like Rock Bottom Hip-Hop at the Fort Lauderdale Saloon and Catalyst in Pembroke Pines, with crates in hand and records for sale, like Tupac's "Still I Rise" for only $20. That kind of service is nice, but to really get Super sold, get lost in the endless stacks at the store.

According to Brazilmag Ban said said:
"Some fear that land currently used to grow food will instead be turned over to fuel"Others worry that forests will be cut down to make way for biomass plantations. Still more worry about the effects on the environment and biodiversity."
National governments must take the lead in managing their use and ensuring that the benefits outweigh the costs, he said.

Storybird opens up another door to publishing student written work in the form of picture books. The site, which technically is still in beta, is constructed around the idea of using illustrations and artwork for storytelling. The site has many, many collections of beautiful and interesting pictures available for use.
Users of Storybird create their own picture books by either choosing a particular artist or by choosing a theme collected via information tags. The Storybird Creator then opens up, allowing the writer to pick and choose which images to use. It is easy to move pages around in Storybird — just drag and drop pages to rearrange them. Once the writer/creator has completed a book, it's time to publish it. The Storybird crew moderates published books closely, meaning kids are unlikely to come across inappropriate content. And the site is just as useful as a place for readers as it is for writers.
For the Classroom
For reluctant writers, Storybird is a nice way to provide inspiration. Young learners could easily use the artwork on the site for brainstorming. Once a book has been approved by the site's moderators, Storybird generates embed code that allows you to post the stories on your own classroom sites.

This article originally appeared in the October 8 issue of CAROLINA: The Magazine.
by Amy Hoots
CHAPEL HILL - Inane.
That's the word the head coach of the Tar Heels uses to describe the tradition of women's soccer at Carolina.
Perhaps that needs to put into context. Here are his exact words, spoken bluntly, which is the only way Anson Dorrance knows how to speak them: "I really feel for all of these kids who have to come in and defend this absolutely inane tradition that the only respectable result for a team is a national championship. On any other team, if the kid wins the national championship, it's an incredible success for that kid. Here if they win a couple, that's okay, that's average."
On a different day, Dorrance may speak of the many advantages of being part of such a storied program, but today he won't mince words speaking about the veiled side of success. "We certainly want them to be proud of their tradition, but we don't want them to suffer from the stress of comparisons with previous generations that have come through."
It's easy to see why Dorrance may not want to have each player compare herself to the likes of previous generations which include names like Mia Hamm, Kristine Lilly, and Heather O'Reilly, to name just a few. Who can compare? Perhaps All-American seniors Kealia Ohai and Crystal Dunn might fit the mold. Dunn and Ohai have the weighty responsibility of defending the traditional that includes 21 NCAA national championships, more than any women's college team in history.
Both are superstars, and both play for the Tar Heels. On some teams, two great players can be a recipe for disaster, but here, they go together like birthdays and cakes. Dorrance said, "There is no level of jealousy. When I hear Kealia speak about Crystal, it's nothing but respect. And when Crystal is speaking about K, it's the same thing."
Dunn is a skillful dribbler whose moves strike awe in those who play with her and fear in those who have the misfortune of competing against her. Ohai is a prolific scorer, a player who wants the ball when the game is on the line. Together, they frustrate opponents and dominate games.
Dunn calls Ohai her "partner in crime" and a teammate who can be counted on to cover her back. "I go on random dribbling rants, and I don't know where I'm going half the time," she said, laughing. "But I can always rely on K to be in a good position to show for me. She always wants the ball and that's what I love about her."
Ohai can be sure that if Dunn doesn't get a shot up herself, she'll find a way to get her the ball. "Sometimes when she starts dribbling, you're like mesmerized by her. It's incredible and I just have to keep reminding myself to show, that she's going to get it to me," Ohai said.
The World Stage
"2012 was pretty much the highlight of my life," Ohai will tell you.
In September of last year, she and Dunn traveled to Japan to compete for the U20 World Cup title. Before the end of the first half, Dunn did what she does so well, deftly dribbling the ball past German defenders before passing to her teammate who would score the game's lone goal. It is perhaps fitting that the goal which clinched the American's victory over Germany for the world title was scored by Kealia Ohai with an assist from her Tar Heel teammate. They perform that number frequently on American soil, and the formula proved successful on the world stage as well.
The world champions returned from Japan in the middle of their college season, exhausted emotionally and physically. "It's very hard to go from the top of Mount Everest to Marianas Trench and get motivated to come back and compete collegiately," Dorrance said. "They could've gone into cruise control. What do they have to prove? They're world champions."
The two still had work to do, though. Their individual resumes were impressive, but there was a glaring hole. They both felt the pressure and were determined to produce an NCAA national championship.
They competed two years with no national championship, a lifetime in Carolina soccer years. "They went through some lean years, but they hung in there like grim death. They were rewarded last year and on their backs we won," said Dorrance. "If it wasn't Dunn scoring and Ohai assisting, it was Ohai scoring and Dunn assisting."
It is no exaggeration to say that Ohai and Dunn carried their team throughout the NCAA tournament. Dunn scored five goals throughout, many of them at pivotal moments. Her goal in the third round kept the season alive for the Tar Heels in their eventual win against Baylor. She followed up that game with a pair of goals, including the game-winner in overtime, to seal the win against BYU.
In the next NCAA semifinal game against top-ranked Stanford, Ohai took over the reigns and scored the golden goal in overtime to advance her team to the national championship game where they faced Penn State. Ohai was quicker to score against the Nittany Lions and put points on the board in the opening minute. The Tar Heels maintained the lead and Ohai and Dunn, world champions, were now national champions as well.
Dorrance praises Ohai and Dunn for their conduct after returning from the World Cup. "The NCAA tournament was a great statement about their character and their loyalty towards their college teammates and their program," he said. "The way they conducted themselves on and off the field I think is a wonderful example to anyone out there about humility and ambition."
Ohai said, "Winning that national championship was a little bit of relief of pressure."
The statement comes from someone who embraces pressure, who loves it. When the game is on the line, Ohai wants the ball. But even the coolest of player feels the hefty weight of expectations.
Relieving the Pressure
The conference room in the McCaskill Soccer Center is occupied, so we pull up a few stray chairs and talk outside the coaches offices. Dunn and Ohai have been ushered from a photo shoot on the soccer field to our appointment, and afterward will do an on-camera interview. Dorrance passes by, "Are these my TV stars?" he teases.
With a hairbrush in hand, Dorrance pretends to toss it in the direction of his superstars. "Anson calls us divas," the girls reveal with mock disgust. Of course, it is funny only because it isn't true.
"I think I'm going to quit soccer and take up modeling," Dunn threatens as the head coach walks away towards his office. "No problem! There's better money in that anyway," he calls out from down the hall.
It is this type of playful banter that is common and necessary in easing the load placed on players' shoulders each day. "What I try to do is take the pressure off them," said Dorrance, referred to informally as "Anson" among his players.
Some coaches must demand formality to ensure respect. Some must require silence on bus trips to reinforce the importance of an upcoming match. Some must constantly lecture about performing at a high level in order to uphold their program's legacy. The Carolina women's soccer legacy is so impressive, Dorrance must do the opposite.
Dorrance recruits players like Ohai and Dunn, players that know the stakes, players that don't need to be retold what is expected, and don't need to be reminded who came before them. The players think about those things each day. The pressure from the outside is as great as the pressure from within, and they thrive on it.
With few other options to stop the dynamic duo, teams have gotten physical this year and the referees don't seem to be providing the Tar Heels with any favors. "Not getting frustrated is key, because going forward defenders are going to hit us hard," said Ohai. "We're just going to have to embrace it," said Dunn. "That's why it's important to lean on each other. I know if they're beating me up, I can give the ball to K and say, 'Go, score, please."
The relief of pressure. Even for the strongest of competitors, a competent teammate to bear the load is a welcome reprieve. Ohai finds it in Dunn, and Dunn knows that when there are no more defenders to dribble past, Ohai will be waiting.
She's eager for the ball, ready to score, desperate to win. She's ready to defend the Carolina soccer tradition, no matter how inane her head coach might think it to be.

Most funding continues for High Point Market
August 17, 2010,
North Carolina provides marketing funds, and Market Authority President Brian Casey said the state budget passed this week cuts about 5% from the $848,925 it received last year in marketing funds. Those funds pay for market entertainment and other items.
However, the state will likely give the authority 100% of its past transportation funding, or about $1.2 million, he said.
"We're appreciative of their continued recognition of the value of this asset to the state," Casey said.
The City of High Point will contribute $1 million, which is 100% of its total contributed last year.
Guilford County will kick in $50,000, down from $75,000 last year.
The Market Authority's total budget is about $5 million. The remainder of its budget comes from showroom and occupancy taxes. Its fiscal year begins July 1.
Casey said the organization continues to work to strengthen the market and improve buyer experiences in areas such as housing, rental and ambassador programs, among other items.
"We haven't been doing the same thing market after market. We've been trying to find new and improved ways to do things and we're going to continue to do that," he said.

There is only one thing I don't understand and that is why you haven't gotten as big as Skrillex yet because you should have by now. I'm really picky when it comes to Dubstep because I only like the really grungy, nasty, gritty, and brutal sounding Dubsetp and let me say my friend, you make it all of those things and more.

A sad story.
I've been on newgrounds for nearly 10 years now. and my music usually comes from here. but ever since Dimrain47 stopped making new music, it really hasnt been the same. You are light in a dark era. i hope to find more artist like you and to hear more from you. you are an Amazing artist. Nuff said.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Reason I signed up....
This has to be one of the most awesomely epic tracks I've ever heard. I'm no musician, so I can't comment on what's good and what's bad, I just know multiple eargasms must mean it's pressing all the right buttons.
I hope you don't mind (reading the blurb under your profile I take it you won't), but I plan on using some of your tracks this year for my videos. I'm a bit of an unofficial videographer for my car club, and make videos of events we do ( drag races, drifting etc etc ).
I can't wait until your famous, so I can tell my mates that I knew about you from here before you really hit it big :)
Keep up the great work matey.

New Interface Thursdays: Managing keywords and the Search Query Report
May 21st, 2009 | Published in Google Adwords
In this week's post, we'll take a deeper look into the Keywords tab in the new AdWords interface.
The Keywords tab lists the keywords within your account. Just like in the previous AdWords interface, you can add, edit, and create new keywords on the Keywords tab in your account. However, the new interface takes keyword management a step further with a feature called roll-up tabs. A Keywords tab is available at every level of your account, allowing you to see the keywords for a whole campaign, or even across all campaigns in a single list. This is helpful for tasks like identifying your top-performing keywords across your account.
You can also make changes to your keywords directly from any Keywords tab. For example, you can change a keyword's match type by clicking on the keyword and then selecting the desired match type from the drop-down.
Additionally, you can pause and resume keywords, change your bid, or change the keyword itself on any Keywords tab across your account. If you want to make changes to multiple keywords at once, you'll want to use bulk editing. Select the keywords you want to change and then click the Edit button at the top of the table.
A nice feature of bulk editing is the Copy down button, which allows you to change bids across a number of keywords. For example, if you want to change your bids across multiple keywords rather than entering the bid manually for each one, you can click on the Copy down button next to the bid you're editing. Your bid will then be copied to all of the selected keywords. You can also copy down changes to keyword status or destination URLs.
You can also find many of the features that we posted about in the past few weeks in the Keywords tab. If you want to quickly edit your keywords, remember that you have keyboard shortcuts at your disposal. You can also use customizable columns to look at the date in which you're interested. And, of course, you can filter your keywords, which can be especially helpful if you're looking at all the keywords in your account.
Another feature you can try on the Keywords tab is segmentation. By clicking the Filter and views button and then selecting Segment by Query Match Type, you can see the performance for each of your keywords broken out into broad, phrase, and exact match.
Using the Search Query Report
Earlier this week, we posted about the enhancements to the Search Query Report, which you can access directly from the Keywords tab in the new interface.
As a reminder, this report shows you the search terms that triggered your ads. To see the report, select the keywords of your choice and click See search terms, then Selected. You'll be presented with a list of search terms that triggered your ads for those keywords as well as metrics like CTR and conversion rate.
You can then make changes to your account directly from the report. For example, if you a see a search term that looks like a good fit, you can add it to your campaign. Just select the term and click Add as keyword. You'll also have the opportunity to set a specific bid and set the match type for the keyword. Likewise, if you see a search term that isn't a fit for your campaigns, you can add it as a negative keyword. When adding negative keywords, it's best to wait for data. You don't want to exclude a keyword too soon as you might miss out on relevant traffic. Also, you might try using a lower bid or using more targeted ad text before you exclude it completely.
When using this report, it can be tempting to tweak keywords that only have one or two clicks. If you want to get the most out of the Search Query Report, we recommend you focus on keywords with the most impressions and clicks. That's where you'll get the most value out of the changes you make.
Your feedback on the new interface
You've already given us lots of helpful feedback on what you like about the new interface, such as easier Content Network management and faster account navigation, and feedback on what needs improvement.
You can learn more about some of the top issues we're working to address by reading this article. We continue to work on changes to the new AdWords interface based on your feedback. Please continue to send us your feedback on the new interface using the Send Feedback link in the top corner of your account. Your feedback is very valuable to us as we continue to improve the new AdWords interface.

Rice, Bulgur, Couscous, And Quinoa: Which Grain Gets The Healthiest Grade?
There's been a lot of talk about lesser-known supergrains lately, like farro and freekeh. But it's got me wondering about the more traditional ones–you know, the ones you can get in almost any bulk section. If you live somewhere where your choices are limited to, say, rice and couscous, how do you pick? Which grain is healthiest?
Chia Seed Toothpaste? Ancient Grains Entering Oral Care
Of course, "healthiest" is a pretty broad term, so let's define it. Pretty much all grains are, by definition, either low in fat or fat-free–but which delivers the most protein, the most fiber, the most nutrients? Which are OK for folks with gluten sensitivities? Which have the fewest carbohydrates? The fewest calories?
Nutrition Reminder: Whole Grains Aren't Always What They Seem
Let's take a look.
Grade: C-/B; Conditional
Long-grain brown rice is a staple for a reason…but that reason is that people have heard of it. Also, that it's in every grocery store. But even the healthiest of rice is actually pretty caloric–over 200 calories in one cooked cup, which is about the same as quinoa. But rice has about half as much protein as quinoa, and less fiber, too. It's also got more carbs than any of the others.
Grow Rice And Other Grains At Home
However, wild rice, which technically isn't actually rice as you know it, but rather, a mixture of grains from various plants that resemble rice, does have more protein and more fiber. So if you're really a fan of rice, opt for the wild kind instead. It gets a B (hence, the conditional grade).
And as for white rice? It has next to nothing to offer–even the enriched stuff has less fiber and less protein than the other grains on the list.
Whole Grains Reduce Heart Failure Risk
Grade: B+
Even if you haven't officially met bulgur, you probably know it as the grain that makes that refreshing, yummy tabbouleh salad that your crunchy neighbor always brings to the block party. Mystery solved!
But really, bulgur is good for a lot more than just the occasional side. Made from wheat kernels, bulgur boasts a sweet, rich flavor that's great as a substitute for oatmeal or other breakfast cereals. It has no fat and has fewer calories than all the rest–just 150 in a cup of the cooked stuff.
Health Benefits of Whole Grains – More than just fiber
Additionally, it's relatively low in carbs (that same cup has about 34 grams, though, so it's still not actually low), and contains a whole lot of fiber. It also delivers a nice iron boost and a decent serving of protein.
Overall, bulgur is definitely a pretty great choice, all things considered. But it's not the true winner.

Re: "Antoni and the missing "D"
I was wondering what happened with the McMillan thing too. I don't know how this is going to work without a solid assistant like him at 'antoni's side. When all this went down, the only reason I had optimism was because McMillan was rumored to be coming here too (he actually should've been the head coach long before 'antoni).
Here's the other thing that scares me.... everybody seems to think as soon as Nash comes back everything is going to be ok. I'm not so certain of that yet. The Lakers have always struggled at PG for years and years. They still were able to put up really good records and even win championships. This season we get an upgrade at C, some better bench pieces, and all the sudden they aren't winning games??? There's more than just Nash running the offense going on.

5.0 stars 94 totalReview Laurence Schwartz
Posted by anonymous
I reviewed Mr. Schwartz's profile late Friday night and liked the reviews on his profile so I emailed him with my concerns. He called me first thing the very next day (Saturday) and to my surprise he had done a lot of research on my case before I even spoke with him. With the little information he had on the case he was able to review it online and even notified me of a motion the mother filed, that I was completely unaware of. He spoke with me over 30 minutes, listened and gave me great advise and even referred me to his college for further council. You didn't have to do this, and I'm grateful for the time and effort you gave to me, free of charge. Thank you.

Mr. Schwartz did an outstanding job guiding me through a lengthy divorce settlement. The lengthy process was a result of my ex dragging things on as long as possible over the course of a year. Mr. Schwartz worked with her attorney to keep the process moving along while always keeping in touch with me so I understood the status every step of the way. I think his communication with clients may be one of his strongest assets. His knowledge, professionalism and even humor helped me navigate this difficult journey. I appreciate all Larry has done for me and highly recommend his services.
Posted by Daniel
This man is a life saver, i walked into his office as desperate as can be seeking answers and professional advice as the mother of my child was trying to relocate to another state with my son. He assured me of my rights as a parent and all the procedures and steps that needed to be taken to move forward with this case. He has been accessible at all times to reach , what mainly not only shocked me but caught my attention is that Laurence doesn't believe in assistants or paralegals he personally addresses every call to his office not like your typical high horse lawyer nowadays that you cant ever speak to on the phone . Laurence has been very professional , firm and very respectful he was very involved in my case also felt like a friend was consulting me at times. He was concerned always if the mother was allowing me to spend proper time with my son needless to say this case didn't even make it to court before everything reached a settlement.

We came to Laurence at a time when we were in need of an attorney for an issue with several time restraints. I looked up family law attorney's online and decided to call Laurence after reading his reviews. He quickly answered my call and after explaining the problem my partner and I had, he immediately had a strategy for how we could handle the issue and get a favorable result. He was available immediately for an in person meeting, which was excellent because I was looking to solve this issue immediately. Laurence spoke to us for over an hour, strategizing over the best course of action to take and explaining all options.
I have worked with attorneys before, both personally and within my profession. Laurence is one of the most impressive attorneys I have dealt with. He remained responsive and accessible at all times. There was not a time that I called him that he didn't answer - no matter the time. Laurence is compassionate and understanding, he understands that the child's best interest is the heart of the matter.
If you ever have to retain an attorney for family law matters, I recommend Laurence Allen Schwartz with absolutely no reservation. I am certain that you will not be disappointed in having Laurence Allen Schwartz represent you. Laurence is diligent, humane, and an excellent negotiator; he will fight for you.

In hiring Mr. Schwartz, I can attest that he is serious, dedicated, diligent, and compassionate. He would go out of his way to ensure that everything was going smoothly and was always on top of things. Throughout this time, I have grown to consider Mr. Schwartz a friend. The case was settled fairly, and I was very satisfied with the disposition. If you are seeking a superior lawyer with a record of excellence and achievement, Mr. Schwartz is an excellent choice.
Posted by howard
Mr Schwartz is a professional and very talented and experience lawyer. He represented me very good my case was resolved before two hours of mediation I was so impressed because I never knew my divorce would have been resolved in such a short time. I would recommend any one to Mr Schwartz to my family or friends and even strangers' thank you sir I appreciate you.
Posted by Javier
I recently hired Lawrence Schwartz to represent me for a modification of my marital settlement agreement. Not only did he produce a most favorable outcome, but he handled the entire experience with exceptional professionalism. He showed good character, judgment, and civility throughout.
You can expect great results from Mr. Schwartz, and I would gladly recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent divorce attorney in the South Florida area. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, attentive, available, and trustworthy attorney, hire Lawrence Schwartz. You will be glad that you did.

Laurence is an extremely intelligent and well experienced in his field. He followed up on my case almost every day without even being retained. He is very caring towards his clients or anyone who seeks his expert advice. I highly recommend Laurence.
Posted by Julissa
Laurence Schwartz is an outstanding individual, who is dedicated to his client and persistent in his handling of the case. What can you say about a divorce attorney who always took or returned my calls and emails, night, weekends and would meet me according to my schedule, even with much notice. He took the time to get to know me as a person and a parent. He understood my interest in my child's well-being and helped me develop the best plan of action, and then to work toward resolution. His experience as a family law attorney enabled him to work towards protecting my rights and most importantly the best interests of my child. Laurence is very personable, approachable and has a good relationship with the court as well as a strong professional network with other attorneys.
He is smart, thoughtful, and not afraid to speak the truth. He was patient with me, very professional and was able to make me feel at ease. He helped me understand the process, the time frames involved, and how to see "the big picture". He taught me how my problems were possible to overcome. On more than one occasion he called me late in the evening when I needed guidance. I'm happy to say that as a lawyer he suited my needs extremely well. I'm pleased to say that throughout his representation I felt like I'd not only secured an exceptional attorney, but found a much-needed loyal friend to the process.
Posted by anonymous
I post anonymously due to my type of work not allowing me expose my name. But, I can truly say that Mr. Schwartz was 100% pleasant to work with. He was informative, patient in providing details, and is very knowledgeable within his trade. Most important aspect in doing business with anyone is Trustworthiness. Mr. Schwartz was diligent in his details, which provided trust in his knowledge of being able to provide the best possible outcome.
Highly recommend, Mr. Schwartz!!!

The Liberal Democratic Party and its ally, New Komeito, are considering tapping into bank deposits that have been left untouched for more than a decade to pay social security and public works costs, officials said.
The use of deposits at so-called dormant bank accounts had been studied under the previous administration, led by the Democratic Party of Japan, but the move was halted after the DPJ lost power in the December 2012 general election.
The ruling bloc aims to form a suprapartisan group of lawmakers as early as February to submit related legislation.
A plan drafted by LDP ranks calls for transferring such deposits to Deposit Insurance Corp. of Japan and using the funds to provide subsidies and loans for nonprofit projects through a new body.
The draft also includes steps to allow depositors to withdraw their deposits even after their bank accounts are deemed dormant.
Available dormant account deposits are estimated to total up to ¥850 billion in a decade.

gGadget > Nikon®D3X Review
The Nikon D3X is the most recent Nikon release in the Nikon DX series. It's been on the market since 2008, and it is the successor of the Nikon D2X. Like its successor, the Nikon D3X is a DLSR that's primarily marketed to serious, professional photographers, and it's a DLSR that boasts the ability to take incredibly high quality, high resolution images. Its $8,000 price tag means it's definitely not an entry-level camera, and its price is the major reason this camera has never really become a crowd favorite.
Reviewers and well-off photographers will tell you that the Nikon D3X offers unparalleled image quality, due mostly to the camera's 36 x 23.9 mm CMOS sensor, which offers a resolution of 24.5 megapixels. If crisp, clear, highly detailed photos are what you're after, the Nikon D3X can deliver. But since less expensive cameras with similar resolution options have come out in the last couple of years, you may be wondering if investing in the D3X is worth it. Nikon built the D3X to go down in history as one of the best DLSRs in terms of picture quality, and the D3X has quite a few things going for it in addition to its full-frame sensor.
There are rumors that the Nikon D4X, the D3X's successor, will be released in 2013. Nikon hasn't officially specified a release date for the D4X yet, but the hype is already starting to surface. Until the D4X is released, the D3X will remain Nikon's flagship, high-end camera. In many ways, the D3X was revolutionary in terms of sensor size and resolution. And we can expect that the D4X will be revolutionary in that respect as well.
The Nikon D3X is undeniably one of the best cameras for professional photographers on the market, and brings a lot to the table when it comes to specs. On the next few pages of this review, we'll fill you in on the Nikon D3X's key features and some of its drawbacks. Keep reading on the next page to find out more about the D3X's sensor, battery, and shutter speed.

Stud Kit Success!!
Hi All,
Been awhile, but I've got good news - I have successfully completed a stud kit head gasket repair on my '98 Deville.
It took two months between waiting on parts, other extra-curricular activities, and traveling for work, but I stuffed the engine in yesterday, finished hooking everything up today, and other than a couple of head-scratching moments she fired off just fine.
At first, it wouldn't start. I would turn the key and nothing. Turns out I didn't have the transmission cable back in the original position and the transmission was actually in reverse when the column shifter was in park. Got that fixed and then I didn't have any oil pressure.
I think I still need to replace my oil pressure sender because I get the oil pressure idiot light at idle after driving at highway speeds. Tap the throttle a little and the light goes out.
I remember several comments about the friction-driven oil pump so that's where I went first. I had installed the crankshaft balancer per the factory service manual, but it was evidently still too loose. Once I took the right front wheel off, removed the splash shield, and tightened the bolt some more (maybe 3/4 or 1 complete turn is all), I fired it up and got oil pressure.
Took it for a 30 mile drive and changed the oil. Will change the oil again next weekend after I have about 500 miles on it. Hopefully I didn't get anything into the engine that will cause premature failure.
Thanks to all the folks on the forum that have answered questions (especially Ranger), provided insight, and gave me the courage to try the repair myself. And a big kudos to Jake and his stud kit. He was always willing to answer questions and give advice. Jake, if you read this, Thanks!
If anybody has any questions, feel free to ask. I will try and post a few pictures later this week showing the project.
Thanks again, all!!

Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Be very sure that the crankshaft balancer is torqued to the proper specs (quite high as I recall). As you know, it drives the oil pump. Don't want that puppy slipping .
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
You're very welcome Scott, My staff and I thank you as well! I hope you get years of pleasure out of your '98 Deville. It wouldn't hurt changing the oil and filter yet again. Even a very short time without oil pressure can start engine wear, hopefully nothing began to wear yet. It only takes 5 psi to get that oil pressure warning light out, at 2000 RPM it is supposed to be pumping oil at 35 psi. 5 psi will turn the oil pressure warning light off., but will likely cause damage at 2000 rpms....
5 psi at idle minimum
35 psi @2000 rpms
Most Northstars, when still cold (ambient temp), pump 65-70 psi at speed, and sit at around 8 psi at idle when warm.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
congrats..i'm right behind you. I should have mine together late tomorrow. Been a couple of months for pretty much the same reasons.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Taspeed - I wish you all the best luck. Nothing like hearing that motor turn over and run after having it spread all over the shop!
Jake - Thanks for the info on the oil pressure. When I first start it up, I don't get the oil light, I can drive for awhile and when I slow down to idle I still don't get the oil light. But, after a period of time (I don't know how much) when I slow down to an idle, I get the oil light.
I changed the oil pressure sending unit tonight and I'll see how that works for me tomorrow. I have a 45 mile commute (one-way) so I should be able to rack up the miles and see just how well I did.
Again, thanks for all your help, and I'm spreading the word about the stud kit!

Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Hey Scott, Charity is planning to call you back soon...
I just completed the new jig to manufacture the tap / drill fixture about 15 minutes ago. This will speed up production and ensure accuracy of the hole spacing. So who ever is still waiting for their kit, there's a reason there was a minor delay. There's quite a few kits out the door at 2:30 PM
Rebuilt and reconditioned engines are available for anyone who just wants to do a swap. 3 are due for shipping now, as soon as the Customs office will clear the shipment. We have a meeting with a Wilson's Custom's Brokers this afternoon to hopefully take care of thise issues.
Be careful when ordering from accurate engines, I'm sure their quality is good but I know of someone who contacted them and they said the engines had new camshaft bearings as well- if they know that much about Northstars I'd be careful about ordering one from them. Northstar cams run on the head without bearings. They also advertise new camshafts but when I called to confirm this, they said no, camshafts are a dealer only option and cost over $400 each (around there) and said they install good used ones. So do I, but I won't advertise new ones.
Also, one customer from California had sent up his engine for us to do the work on, from a 2000 Caddy. We did the seals, head gaskets and studded the block, and it's being shipped back. The cost is approx. $1000 for the labor and parts (shipping extra).
Northstar Performance is growing rapidly, and we owe a big thank you to all of our customers who have done business with us and those who have had patience when things don't always go as planned.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
It's been a pleasure working with you, even if shipping to Alaska was bugger!
I'm glad you've invested the time, energy, and money to get Northstar Performance where it is, my hat's off to you.
I'm sure any improvement you made to the drill/tap jig will only speed production. As I told you, I spent quite a bit of time trying to make sure the holes were lined up and tapped square to the block.
I changed the oil pressure sending unit last night and it didn't fix my oil light at hot idle. I'm going to go crank down on the crankshaft balancer a little more and hope that helps. If not, I suspect I've got worn bearings.
If I do have worn bearings, is that something that can be done in the car or do I have to pull the engine again? And do you think it would be main bearings or rod bearings? Probably should just replace them all while the pan is dropped.
On the bright side, I put my foot into it a couple of time tonight on the way home - what a blast!! And it didn't even get hot!
Thanks again, Jake, and anybody out there thinking about inserts or studs, go with studs!

Re: Stud Kit Success!!
I'm using Wal-Mart 5w30.
Also, I went and cranked on the crankshaft balancer bolt some more and got another 1/4 turn out of it. It seemed to help this morning so I'm going to try and crank it up a little bit more.
Can you get the crankshaft balancer bolt too tight?
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Okay, so I went and took the crankshaft balancer bolt out. I didn't remove the balancer itself. I put the bolt back in and torqued it to 37 lb-ft. Then I turned the bolt another 120 deg. This time it took all I had (and a small cheater bar) to get the 120 deg.
I'll find out tomorrow if it works.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
.............look at your other thread on the same subject - I just replied to that bolt question.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Scott, I don't mean to be rude in any way - GET RID OF THAT OIL!
Walmart brand stuff is ok for your lawn mower, your Honda, your Toyota, sure. This is one of the most advanced American engines ever produced.
Quaker State is all I use, Valvoline will be fine, Castrol (not my choice but GM uses it), Mobil 1, but get that cheap stuff out.
Oil, when warm, thins out- and from my experiences long ago, the cheaper the oil (low quality name brands) the more it thins out. The Northstars run at 225-230 degrees at times, and you need good oil to keep things lubed at those temps.
Please take my advice and see if it helps any.
Oh, you can snap a crankshaft balancer bolt. Not very easily, but it can be done. If you do, it will likely turn right out with a hammer and a punch.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
I've been using Walmart conventional and Syn oil with no problems - yet - changing every ~5,000 miles.
I think you never had the pulley on all the way - you were pressing it on more and more as you tightened the bolt, but maybe never got a true pinch fit to the oil pump drive. I bought a pulley installer at the recommendation of someone else here on the forums - the followed the 37 + 120 you wrote about - worked just fine for me - even with Wally oil.
I must say, however, that I use the recommended oil weight of 10W-30 - the 5W30 you are using might be too thin to maintain proper oil pressure at idlel
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
I have also been using Walmart Super Tech oil for years. Walmart does not make their own oil. Don't knock it just because it is sold by Walmart and does not have a big name on it. If you do some research on it you'll find that it is rather highly rated. I switched only recently because I found a better sale and it was on an SL rated oil (new stuff is SM with less ZDDP), so I bought 10 cases.
Re: Stud Kit Success!!
Just from my observations, the cheaper oils like that tend to thin out more when the engine is warm/hot.
Nobody has to take my advice, I may be wrong. But it's just my .02. My cars have always been running the $4/quart stuff, not the $2/quart stuff. From my supercharged Oldsmobile LSS to the 403 powered Parisienne, to the 455 Olds Delta, the trucks, and all the Northstar toys. Cheap insurance. Oil has a big job to do - 6000 RPMs under load at 230 degrees; it has to maintain a film between the bearings and the crank, the lifters and the head & cams...etc.
I think Sub agrees with me on this one 100%.
Drain that oil out of the crankcase at 200 degrees engine temp. Do this with Super Tech oil. Then do this with Quaker or Valvoline. You should notice if you get some on your finger how the cheap stuff seems to have hardly any lubricity and it's really breaking down. The other stuff is still slick and of course thinner at those temps, but doesn't drip like water. I've seen the difference and I'm convinced, but to each his own.

Wolverine World Wide has the shoes to quiet your barking dogs. The company makes Hush Puppies casual shoes and slippers, as well as boots, sandals, and related apparel and accessories. Its boot lines include Merrell (outdoor), Bates (military), HyTest, and Wolverine (industrial); footwear is made under the Cushe brand and private labels. Wolverine also boasts several licenses from
("CAT") and
, to make branded footwear. It sells worldwide through department and specialty stores, independent distributors, Internet retailers, and about 360 company-owned retail stores in the US and Canada. Wolverine also maintains more than 60 consumer-direct Internet sites.
Wolverine designs, manufactures, sources, markets, licenses, and distributes branded footwear, apparel, and accessories. Prior to fiscal 2016, the company operated in three reportable segments: Lifestyle Group, largest segment (37% of sales), Performance Group (37%), and Heritage Group (22%).
The company realigned its segments into four in fiscal 2016: Wolverine Outdoor & Lifestyle Group (Merrell, Cat, Hush Puppies, Sebago brands and Chaco and Cushe footwear); Wolverine Boston Group (Sperry, Saucony and Keds brands and apparel); Wolverine Heritage Group (Wolverine, Bates uniform footwear, Harley-Davidson and HyTest footwear) and Wolverine Multi-Brand Group (Stride Rite brand and multi-brand consumer-direct businesses).
Geographic Reach
Wolverine's footwear brands are sold in about 200 countries and territories in the US and Canada as well as Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region. The US accounted for two-thirds 72% of the company's fiscal 2016 (January year end) sales, followed by Europe, Middle East and Africa (13%), and Canada (5%) while the remainder came from other countries.
The company's manufacturing operations are conducted in Michigan and it maintains distribution operations in Louisville, Kentucky; Howard City, Michigan; Cedar Springs, Michigan; Rockford, Michigan; Ontario, Canada; and Brookville, Ohio.
The company operated 360 retail stores in the US and Canada and 61 consumer-direct websites in fiscal 2016.
Sales and Marketing
Wolverine markets directly through retail stores and also through a network of third-party distributors, sales representatives, licensees and joint ventures. Its brand-specific marketing plans vary and may include print and radio advertising, search engine optimization, social networking sites, event sponsorships, in-store point-of-purchase displays, promotional materials and sales and technical assistance. The company directly sells its products to a range of customers, including department stores, national chains, catalog retailers, specialty retailers, mass merchants and internet retailers, governments and municipalities. Wolverine also uses a network of independent Shoemobile distribution outlets to distribute some work and occupational footwear brands at industrial facilities.
Financial Performance
The company's net revenues decreased by 3% in fiscal 2016 due to lower sales from the Lifestyle Group and the Heritage Group. The decline in Lifestyle Group revenues was due to a drop in Stride Rite sales resulting from the closure of retail stores, while the Hush Puppies' decline was due to strategic reductions in the US department store channel.
Heritage Group's sales dip was due to the decline in revenues from Cat and Sebago as a result of a strengthened US dollar, while the Wolverine brand declined due primarily to unseasonably warm winter weather and higher inventory levels at key retail partners.
Performance Group revenues were flat for the year.
In 2016 Wolverine's net income decreased by 10% due to lower net revenues and an increase in restructuring and impairment costs, related to the company's decision to wind-down operations of its Cushe brand and indefinite-lived intangibles of its Stride Rite brand.
The company's operating cash flow was $215.5 million in fiscal 2016.
Wolverine focuses on marketing campaigns and strategies in order to increase awareness of, and affinity for, the company's brands. The strategy will enhance the positioning of its brands, extend its brands into complementary product categories, expand geographically and expand its consumer-direct operations.
In 2015 the company invested in digital marketing and omni-channel initiatives. Its ecommerce nearly accounted for 20% growth in revenues, primarily in mobile. The company sold around 42 million units outside North America, contributing to an expanded geographic reach for brands. In 2016 it continued to strengthen its brands in digital, ecommerce, and mobile.
The company seeks to position its three largest brands, Merrell, Sperry and Saucony, for future global expansion and growth in 2016. In 2015, Saucony launched the new EVERUN technology. Sperry focused on pushing beyond boat shoes and developing as a lifestyle brand with boots and sneakers, as well as introducing the new Paul Sperry collection. The Merrell brand planned to launch hiking and trail running products in conjunction with go-to-market executions with key global retailers.
Wolverine initiated a restructuring plan in 2014, for realignment of the company's consumer-direct operations. As a part of the plan, the company closed 136 retail stores in connection (which included 58 retail stores in fiscal 2014, 46 retail stores in fiscal 2015, and the remainder in 2016).

Front Range is sadly underrated for their wonderful marriage of very very good food and quality music. No words can describe their delectable meals. And whoever books their bands really know what they're doing because we've seen some great acts come through here, most of them traveling from afar. Not sure why they advertise it as "southern rock" because musicians have come from Philly, Boston, etc., and have a wise variety of soulful sounds. If you want excellent food from a restaurant that has great taste in music, this is the place to be.
Lived in the Springs for 30 years, but moved to Albuquerque about 10 years ago- was back to visit friends/family and started missing my chile fix, so thought I would visit what was one of my favorite 'mexican' restaurants. Kinda surprised at the change-over to this new place but 'what the heck, might as try it as long as i was there'. Loved the ambience and the wait staff was great. The food - not so much. Thought it was overpriced and so-so. Maybe I have gotten spoiled eating some really great southwestern/new mexican food in 'el Burque'.
As a former Palmer student and frequent down-towner, there is nothing bad about KC that isn't wrong with any other downtown breakfast place. My potatoes have never been burnt, and I have never heard the staff curse. I've been earing here for three years. It is a DINER, so the food is bound to be greasy, but nothing compared to a place like Taco Star, for instance. I've had everything on the menu. All the bad reviews must be from some really sophisticated eaters, because to a normal person who doesn't get fresh herbs for her food everynight, this place is good.
Very nicely surprised for a town that has many mediocre Mexican food choices. Locally owned, which is important for those who wish to patronize the mom and pop cafés, while avoiding the big box franchises. Great ambiance, nice wait staff, food exceeded our expectations. Will be back, and will tell our friends to try it out as well.
Great breakfast as well as one of the best burgers in town. The green chili is superb. A great local diner on the West side of town. Have been there numerous times, never been disappointed. Eager to try their BBQ.
The Carey On is my favorite country bar! They have a great dance floor, fantastic music, and the staff is friendly and fun. I often go by myself, and I always feel safe and have a great time. I love seeing the owner LeShawn and DJ Johnny Law wandering through the crowd making everyone feel welcome. I love this place!
Real easy rule to know if you should write "(BLANK) and I" or "(BLANK) and me": Think about how you would write or say it if it was just you -- if you would use "I", then use "(BLANK) and I" and if you would use "me", use "(BLANK) and me".
For example: I went to the mall = Joe and I went to the mall.
Another example: The water splashed on me = The water splashed on Joe and me.
When using "(BLANK) and I", the I always comes last. When using "(BLANK) and me" there is a little more flexibility regarding which comes first.
As the subject of a sentence, it would be "Egg and I" (as in, "the Egg and I went to dinner); if an object or following a preposition, it would be "Egg and me" (respectively, "You took the Egg and me to dinner" and "Give dinner to the Egg and me"). As the name of a restaurant, presumably the subject mode would be preferable (as in "The Egg and I gave our name to this restaurant" or "The name of this restaurant is The Egg and I"). Okay, well, you asked!
Should it be the egg and me? Just wondering the context for the name...drives me batty.
Just tried this restaurant for the first time. Great food, good prices, and exceptional customer service. We will definitely be repeat customers.
We arrived just before 6 am on Friday; there appeared to be just a single employee, who not only opened the door ten minutes late, she proceeded to seat just the first group of diners before disappearing into the back. No eye contact, no "I'll be right with you," nothing but silent contempt. Since she made it clear, on behalf of her business, that iHop cares nothing for our business, we left and won't ever go back.
We tried Jun several times. The food was OK, not great, and the service was horrific. Go to Ai, just down the road. Better food, nice people.
Beer is good but service usually really sucks. I avoid the overpriced food and the owner. I do like the diverse guest tap offerings but they too are overpriced. Have a couple cold Flos and go down the road to more friendly people.
You need to go there when you are not hungry just to watch how awful the wait staff is...carry out has its own set of waits involved.
Jun needs to take care of this because it is hurting his business...we often think about going there, and then decide we don't want to be frustrated and have our evening upset by incompetence and insolence.
What a horrible experience. We came for Sushi after a fun day at the pool with our friends. Our friends had an 8 month old child with them and it was like we were putting them out by having her with us. We were seated and completely ignored. We waited 20 minutes for water!! I finally had to get up and ask the hostess for someone to come to our table to take our drink order, after that it was another ten minutes before someone finally came. When we finally were able to place our order, it was like we were asking too many questions and annoying the waitress. It was another 25 minute wait for our food to arrive and the order was incomplete. We had also asked for some hot water so that we could make the baby a bottle and our waitress completely forgot about it! And it is not like we ordered the least expensive things on the menu, in fact two of us ordered the most expensive meals they offer. Our money spends the same regardless of whether we have a child with us or not. The little girl was an angle throughout the entire, nearly 2 hour, ordeal and did not cause any disruptions or annoyances to other customers. It was as bad a performance as I have ever seen at a restaurant and I would caution to stay away!!!
snooty pricks, overpriced beer, lame ass way overpriced food, and did I mention snooty pricks? will never go back
Trinity has great beers! and the guest taps are bar none. However, the owner is not a very great guy, I have seen him stumbling drunk in the bar harassing other patrons and kicking people out that have done no wrong. He will try to pick fights with others who aren't in 100% compliance with his philosophy on beer. I have brought a lot of friends here and have never been so disappointed in an owner and a business. I really LOVED this brewery but the lack of professionalism and poor service from the bar staff has stopped me from coming here.
The cheese on this pizza tastes like plastic. Also, this restaurant (at any of their locations) has some of the worst customer service I've ever seen. They act like they are doing you a favor to condescend to take your order.
My husband used to live on the east coast, this was the closest to NY pizza that he's seen in Colorado. The staff was great, pizza hot and tasty and the cannolis (especially the chocolate ones) are to die for!!!
A little worn from the years...but it has been exactly like it is for 30 years...the food has never varied and is classic American tempered Chinese...and very inexpensive. It is the perfect match of expectation and result.

Historically, a mini facelift has been a procedure for younger patients, patients who have already had a facelift, or patients only looking to target specific minor areas of the face. Dr. David's version of the mini facelift has evolved into the La Jolla Lift®. This is a procedure that comprehensively rejuvenates the lower face and neck, broadening options for a wider range of clients. Patients achieve dramatic improvement of jowls and "turkey necks" exactly as they would from a full facelift at our practice. Best of all-no general anesthesia is required, making this a safer procedure for most patients. Dr. David's approach has received national acclaim, being featured on hit TV show The Doctors, as well as multiple San Diego television stations.
Our Mini Facelift procedure does not rely on threads or single sutures. The deeper SMAS tissue of the face is lifted and repositioned, providing a safe and natural rejuvenation of the jaw line and neck. The loose skin and muscle that cause bothersome "turkey necks" are tightened and smoothed, and extra fat is removed from the jowl region. This produces a reliable and long-lasting result. One of the best things about the La Jolla Lift® is that it does not require general anesthesia. Our mini facelift is performed with gentle twilight sedation: patients generally sleep through the procedure with minimal to no discomfort. Our expert staff carefully monitors our patients' comfort and safety according to the high standards of our AAAHC accredited center. The patient below had the La Jolla Lift® with Max FX Laser, performed with twilight sedation:
Incisions for the mini facelift are minimized and carefully hidden along the contours of the ear and hairline. Our natural approach preserves the hairline, avoiding an "operated" look that may sometimes accompany full facelifts done elsewhere. Each patient is unique, and procedure time may vary accordingly, but the average procedure is completed in under 2 hours. A quick procedure time while avoiding general anesthesia are the factors that make this procedure affordable: The La Jolla Lift® mini facelift is approximately half the cost of a full facelift at our practice. * Besides results, safety, and affordability, our clients are also concerned about recovery time. By eliminating the need for general anesthesia and limiting incisions to below the hairline, the La Jolla Lift® allows for a relatively quick recovery. Nearly all sutures are removed by one week, and most patients resume normal activities by this time. By ten days to two weeks nearly all patients resume work and travel. ** Please visit our mini facelift gallery to see the results of our La Jolla Lift® : Dr. David has helped over one thousand patients from all over Southern California to achieve their facial aesthetic goals with a mini facelift.
The La Jolla Lift is an ideal rejuvenation procedure for couples who are seeking to enhance their appearance and look as young as they feel. Our convenient scheduling allows couples to stage their procedures from one day to two weeks apart. One of our fantastic couples was recently featured on ABC news.
Q: Why should I choose a La Jolla Lift over a __?__Lift or a Quick lift?
A: IT'S ALL ABOUT THE DOCTOR. Facelifts are surgical procedures. They cannot be branded like automobiles and produced at equal quality by hundreds of different doctors. The La Jolla Lift is an advanced, deep-plane lift targeting the lower face, performed with gentle sedation, in a AAAHC accredited suite. Equally important, it was developed and is performed exclusively by Dr. Roy David, a double board certified La Jolla Facial Plastic Surgeon who has performed over 1000 facelifts. "Trust your face to a specialist."

Sydney: Shane Warne came within a few metres of pocketing 1 million dollars ($ 500,000) in the opening game of the Australian cricket season in Sydney on Sunday.
| The champion Test leg spinner just missed hitting a designated sponsor's sign, which carried the bonanza during Victoria's One-day match with New South Wales at Bankstown Oval. As part of this season's domestic cup One-day series, the designated signs become targets whenever a six is hit and stay live until the end of the over in which the six is hit. After hitting fellow leg spinner Stuart MacGill over mid-wicket for six, Warne turned to square leg and appeared to eye the sign affixed to the boundary fence. "I wasn't actually going for the sign but I got a rank full toss from Stuart and I just had to hit for six," said Warne, whose Victorian team's winning hopes had long since disappeared. "Off the stick, Mark Waugh and Brad Haddin behind the stumps said, 'I think you've got it' but the wind just curled it around a bit and it just missed," Warne said of his shot for instant riches. Warne, whose Victorian side lost by 123 runs, estimated it missed by about two metres (yards) and was disappointed he couldn't give his team something to celebrate. "It would have been a nice positive to get out of a disappointing game." NSW skipper Shane Lee admitted he thought the money was about to go to Warne's way. "It went really close but I'm glad he didn't hit it - Warney's one guy that doesn't need it," Lee added with a smile.

Tennessee track and field athletes Jangy Addy and Michael Hogue were named to the ESPN The Magazine All-America men???s track and field/cross country team this week. The team is voted on by members of College Sports Information Directors of America.
???These guys have set a great examples in their time at Tennessee,??? head coach Bill Webb said. ???They have excelled on the track, in the classroom and in community service. They are both great students and have earned strong degrees. I couldn???t be prouder of this accomplishment for them.???
Addy, a senior from Norcross, Ga., was named to the first team behind the strength of a 3.56 undergraduate GPA in journalism and electronic media. He makes his second appearance on the Academic All-America team after earning second-team honors last season. The team captain won his fourth consecutive SEC multi-event crown and became just the 62nd American and fifth UT athlete to break the 8,000-point mark in the decathlon with his victorious score of 8,010. Addy???s score broke Auburn???s Hutsell-Rosen Track record and included a collegiate-record run of 13.70 in the decathlon 110 hurdles, as well as school-record marks of 10.58 in the decathlon 100 and 53-6 1/2 in the decathlon shot put. Addy also earned conference acclaim this year, as he was named SEC???Indoor Field Athlete of the Year and SEC???Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Addy has twice been named to the USTFCCCA All-Academic team and is a four-time SEC???Honor Roll selection who graduated in December.
Hogue earned second-team honors behind his 3.41 GPA in nursing. The senior from Germantown earned the third All-America certificate of his career with a seventh-place finish in the pole vault at the NCAA Indoor Championships before an injury cut short his outdoor season. He won his third straight SEC???indoor pole vault title, becoming just the second athlete in conference history to won three consecutive SEC indoor pole vault crowns. His personal-best clearance of 17-8 1/2 ranks 10th on Tennessee???s all-time performance list in the pole vault. Hogue has twice been named to the USTFCCCA All-Academic team and is a four-time SEC???Honor Roll selection.
Addy is Tennessee???s fifth track and field/cross country athlete to earn first team CoSIDA Academic All-America acclaim. He is the third Vol, joining Jamie Barnes in 1991-92 and Chris Helwick in 2006-07, to be recognized by CoSIDA in consecutive years. The Vols have 11 total first, second or third team Academic All-America honors that have been earned by eight athletes since 1991, with seven of the honors coming in the past three seasons.
