Tommy Wright had few complaints after the first leg of the Red Insure Cup final ended in stalemate.
Corby Town and Poole Town shared a 1-1 draw at Steel Park to ensure the tie remains firmly in the balance for the second leg on the south coast on March 31.
The top two in the Evo-Stik Southern League Premier Division cancelled each other out for long spells as Greg Mills' long-range effort brought the Steelmen level after Richard Gillespie had given the league leaders an early advantage.
And Corby boss Wright conceded Poole "did a job" on his team in a frustrating second period.
"It was probably a fair result," the Steelmen manager said.
"They got the early goal, we got back into it but to be fair they held firm in the second half.
"They did a job on us and the referee let them get away with a lot of time-wasting, which killed the game. It killed the tempo and it wasn't easy on the eye.
"But it's half-time. It's 1-1 and I think that was a fair outcome.
"There was one team genuinely trying to play the football and trying to win a game and the other side played a very tactical game.
"We had chances but it was always going to be a tight game. You know what you are going to get when you come up against Poole.
"They are organised, disciplined and they have a way of playing. But it's effective."
As far as the second leg is concerned, Corby will need to score as away goals will count at the end but Wright believes things will be a bit more open when the two teams clash again.
"Both teams will have to come out and try to score a goal," he added.
"We know we need to score a goal because the away goals count. Our game plan doesn't change at all. If we had won 3-0 then it would be completely different.
"In fairness, 1-1 is probably the best outcome to go down there and make it a free-flowing game."
Both teams now turn their attention back to the league as the Steelmen continue their pursuit of the leaders, who are two points clear with three games in hand.
Corby head to play-off chasing Redditch United at the weekend while Poole host mid-table Bideford.

We're not exactly cat people but we can't get enough of the 'Fat Cat Art' series by Svetlana Petrova. Zarathustra was inherited by Petrova from her late mother and is apparently a great fan of timeless masterpieces as well as modern art. The seed has been planted and his creative owner heeded her favorite feline's interests by bringing him into all the great works of art front and center. Therefore, the legacy of Zarathustra in all his fluffiness shall live in infamy forever or at least until a fatter cat steals the spotlight. According to the well-fed muse, "Our main passion is to sit for the great artists. Only great artists can appreciate our generous body and sublime soul." Well said.
For another read on cats with their adoring owners, try Metalheads and Their Beloved Cats.

Hi everyone...
Some people still question the prominent role education has had in growing the media industry sector, and the investment New Mexico continues to make in these programs. I don't think anyone articulates the increasing relevance and strategic importance of education better than Dr. Flores. I urge you to read the following -- especially if you're talking with your legislators and other leaders in your community:
William Flores
- There would be no film or media programs at a many schools if it hadn't been for Governor Richardson's commitment of $10 million in capital outlay funds to initiate a Film Institute.
- The Governor's Film and Media Industries Council urged development of film programs as well as efforts to attract film production to New Mexico proceed and a plan be drafted.
- The MISP strategy was developed on a build-out of film and digital initiatives
- The Governor submitted legislation establishing the Film Incentive Program, at the time the most generous in the country;
- Eric Witt, in the Governor's office, met with university representatives to solicit proposals.
- At the time, I was interim president at NMSU and had already begun discussions with some faculty and staff about coordinating the existing film, television, digital arts and simulation efforts on campus. NMSU immediately submitted a proposal, as did UNM and others.
- The FTTP program was launched spearheaded by John Hendry
- Over the next few years, with the help of the Governor and the Legislature, several institutions began establishing film programs and film crew training programs.
- By 2007, 85 films had been made in New Mexico or were under production generating more than $1.2 billion in revenues.
- Film studios were built or are underway in Albuquerque and Santa Fe and SONY developed an IPAX center in ABQ. Post-production facilities are in the works.
- The state has supported Lambda Rail, Internet 2, and a Gig a POP at UNM
- The state has the fastest supercomputer in the world and the Super-Computing Challenge to ignite the imagination of kids in math, science, and computer engineering.
- We now have film crew programs, animation, digital arts, and simulation courses and programs underway at most community colleges and several four-year institutions. UNM is initiating its BFA program and NMSU has over 200 students in their film and digital arts program.
- In 2008, the Governor's Film and Media Industries Council, the Governor's office, and the Film Office began working on a new five-year plan (MISP 2).
- Middle Schools and High Schools have now developed film courses and programs (including Charter Schools devoted to film and media arts)
- Also, in 2008, HED was asked by the Governor's office to establish an articulation and transfer program from the two-year to four-year institutions with two tracks and to develop various career pathways:
- 1) two-year to four-year;
- 2) FTP to AA and BA or BFA and ways in which those working in the industry can earn credits towards the AA or BA.
- 3) initiate discussions with the middle schools and high schools to articulate their programs with higher ed.
While much has been accomplished, there are challenges ahead. The Film Incentive Program is under attack from several quarters, including some in the LFC who feel the program has not produced funds, but cost money to the state. That concern was worsened by the Arrowhead Center study that maintains that the state gets back only 14 cents for every dollar invested. The Film Office has commissioned a separate study that examines a much broader range of revenue streams (such as restaurant and hotel revenues, catering, lumber and supplies, etc.), which will be released by the Governor's office this afternoon. In the past five years, 115 films have been produced here in New Mexico as a result of the Film Incentive Program and billions have flown into the state.
Next Steps: Creating 21st Century Learning Environments
We have to realize that the world is rapidly changing and that New Mexico can be a center for new and emerging industries. Digital arts and simulation are changing our lives. Just think about how our lives have changed in the past decade. We now text message, read our emails on our phones, watch YouTube and network with FaceBook, pretend to be Rock Stars in our living rooms, and play WarCraft with people we can't see who might be in Croatia, China, Egypt, or our next door neighbor. Some of you own islands or have avatars in Second Life. Most of this didn't exist ten years ago. Some of it didn't exist two or three years ago. The world is changing rapidly and we must change with it.
Gaming and simulation are becoming multi-billion dollar industries. While a film is a blockbuster if it brings in $100 million over a three-day weekend, several games that were released in the past two years brought in over $300 million in their first week of release. There are 1 billion personal computers and more than 3.3 billion cell phones in usage in today's world (about 1 for every two persons). Within a few years, Netflix expects to have more films delivered to television and iPods than are sent in the mail. Television 2.0 means you get downloads to your G3 phone and MP3s and iPods. This morning I watched a news clip from CNM and read the New York Times on my cell phone.
Mobile Learning is "anywhere, anytime learning." It has the potential of reaching underserved children, who may not have a computer, but do have a cell phone. It can promote 21st-century learning through social interactions, by fostering collaboration and peer-learning and mentorship. My 15 year old niece took courses online at UC Berkeley because she joined a sci fi blog, started emailing questions, and met a student at Berkeley who encouraged her to take the course.
Today's youth live in an "always on" world, text messaging to their friends, checking their Facebook and MySpace sites, and uploading photos and videos to Flickr and YouTube. They learn from their peers more than they do from their teachers. And, they have learned digital 'work-arounds' to hook-up on line or 'hang-out' with friends (around parental "grounding" or being condemned to "isolation" in their bedrooms to "do homework." Their networking and native use of media equips them for new modes of learning. 21st Century Learning requires that new media literary be integrated into state and national educational standards. USC has formed the Institute for Multimedia Literacy to develop 21st Century literacy skills. The Dean of the School of Cinema-Television at USC, Elizabeth Daley argues that "those who are truly literate in the 21st century will be those who both read and write the multimedia language of the screen." The Partnership for 21st Century Skills urges educators to integrate visual and multimedia literacy into standards and teaching.
21st Century Skills in k-12 include learning to develop and deliver presentations in various media, understand and critique presentations, and express opinions regarding what they see and interact with. For example, some schools now require kids to developing film clips and PowerPoint presentations in the sixth grade. The MacArthur Foundation's study on Living and Learning with New Media argue that educational institutions must learn to take advantage of peer-based learning and learn how to work within these social networking tools, encourage on-line learning communities, and the use of what Chris Dede and others refer to as Serious Games which promote learning and model behavior.
Each day there are more applications for the Virtual World. Serious games can be applied to solve serious problems that face us on health care, city planning, the environment, and many other areas. Mathematicians at UCLA have developed 3 dimensional virtual surgery based on actual patients to permit surgeons to do the virtual surgery before they cut into the body.
The Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars in Washington, D.C. has launched the Serious Games Initiative to encourage simulation applications and platforms for helping solve every day problems that cities, states, and policy makers confront in education, health care, and public finance. There are now FlickR, Slideshare, YouTube, and Delicious channels devoted to Serious Gaming, as well as a Serious Gaming Taxonomy. A Serious Gaming Summit will be held March 22-24th of this year at the GDC in San Francisco.
Through simulation I have "flown" the Space Shuttle, but my heart beat just like I actually in re-entry. Immersive environments create three-dimensional learning experiences. The NSF has funded multi-user virtual environments for leaning, one such project is River City, where students confront sudden illness in a virtual world, a 19th Century city, and have to determine possible sources of the illness, interviewing residents, hospital workers, and victims of the illness. They learn biology, epidemiology, and public health.
Virtual learning disrupts old paradigm of hierarchical school-based instruction with new epistemologies. It promotes situational and active learning, team-work, hypothesis-building, testing, and multiple correct answers, as well as transfer of what they've learned to the real world. Assessment can be based less on tests and more on performance and application. Simulation-modeling and interactive gaming is being used for First Responder Training. NMSU, NMMI, and ENMU-Roswell have an initiative based on NMSU's training project with DOD that is an interactive digital film for emergency training. Urban Planners and water engineers are using simulation modeling to re-envision American cities, transportation, and water systems.
The U.S. Army has already contracted and universities have begun to offer online courses and podcast courses to soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Learning Games, simulations, and interactive problem-solving are being used in K-12 to teach math and science in North Carolina among others. A new study, "Pockets of Potential," released this week calls on the Obama administration to establish a digital-investment fund to accelerate educational reform and to promote mobile learning and innovation, as well as 21st Century digital teaching force.
New learning platforms, simulations, immersive environments all are being developed right here in New Mexico. We have major research universities (UNM, Tech, NMSU) and the national labs. We have the Super-Computer and we have a niche that can develop into new start-ups and, later, industries. We should be developing the software, hardware, and learning platforms that can be used to raise student achievement in New Mexico, but that can become applications that school districts and universities all over the country can adopt.
We have been focusing on film and that's a good thing. I am not asking for us to stop making films, but rather to expand into other fields. Film is simply one medium and the new media are opening up markets that we didn't even think about ten years ago.
The connected, integrated, seamless, and interactive world is the reality of the 21st Century. New Mexico should be on the ground floor of this new wave of digital learning and develop industries to meet that new and emerging market. The Film incentive program has started the way. Now it is up to us to map out the new industries that we will develop to grow New Mexico's economy and to become a national leader in the new wave industries of the future. Let this conference be a beginning step to that future!###

Quick Attach
In many projects you can't start a debugging session by just hitting F5. Instead, you have to use the "Attach to Process" option, find the correct process in the long list of processes, and finally connect to it. Later on, when you restart your debugging session, you have to do it all over again. And again. And again.
With QuickAttach, OzCode makes the routine of attaching to a process super-fast. The QuickAttach window shows you the list of processes you attached to most recently. By clicking the Pin button, you can attach a shortcut key to that process:
And that's it. From now on, whenever we want to attach to 'w3wp.exe', we'll just hit + + , and that's it.
If the process you want to attach to is not in the "Recently Attached" list, you can always search for it, and even see a preview of what its UI looks like:
OzCode makes attaching to an IIS Application Pool super easy, by showing you exactly what web site you're attaching to:

Side-Effects: Medications And Oral Health
Medical problems are things none of us ask for but many of us have, and with medical problems come medications.
Medical problems are things none of us ask for but many of us have, and with medical problems come medications.
Everyone loves a good sweet snack once in a while, but unfortunately, that includes the bacteria in our mouths.
Animals might not be as concerned with maintaining their oral health and hygiene as we are, but that doesn't stop some of them from having very interesting teeth!
Many of us have to deal with tooth loss as we get older, whether because of an injury or tooth decay.
Nail biting is a habit shared by between a quarter and a third of children and nearly half of teenagers.
We all use toothbrushes to take care of our teeth, but what are we doing to take care of our toothbrushes?
Moving to a new area comes with a long to-do list, and one important item on it is finding the right dentist.
We all know what it's like to have a cold, with a nose so stuffy that you can't breathe through it.
Brushing our teeth is something we can get so used to doing that we don't really think about it, but are we doing it the right way?
There are so many things that can make us smile, from seeing an old friend to watching a good movie to randomly remembering a great joke we heard years ago.

My favorite cinnamon roll recipe is from this old restaurant in my town that hasn't been around since I was a little kid. They put out a cookbook with some of their most popular recipes and the cinnamon rolls were in it. They're sweetened with honey, and instead of thick white frosting, they have a honey butter glaze with is DELICIOUS. So much better, really.
A few years ago, I was making cinnamon rolls for breakfast for my friends (we got to go to school a few hours late because the sophomores had to take the WASL, so we met at someone's house for breakfast each morning) when I realized it was my friend Nicole's birthday the next day, the day we'd be eating the cinnamon rolls. I didn't have a present for her, so I decided to make a special cinnamon roll "the size of her face." It was deemed a success and I've made one every year since.
Since I was delivering the cinnamon roll this year, and since I've had bad luck getting cake pans back and such (not from her, but my friend's boyfriend totally stole my biggest cake pan) I decided using a disposable one would be the best idea. They even came with lids! And of course, I had to make a silly card. Yes, that is a greater than sign, signifying that the cinnamon roll is actually BIGGER than her face.
Like I said, this is a cake pan, I think a 9 inch one? So that gives you some idea of the size. But you definitely want to see it without the lid so you can see the delicious, shiny glaze.
Yum, right?

AURORA—On June 16, eight campers enjoyed a Fantastic Friday at Abbey Farms, here.
Held on the grounds of Marmion Abbey, this second summer of kids' activities featured an expanded schedule of Monday-Thursday camps during the last three weeks of June, each with different, age-appropriate themes.
The new Fantastic Fridays for kindergarteners through fifth-graders invited campers to explore activities including a mega-drop slide, a zipline (below left) and a jumping pillow (left) and some indoor art projects (below).
Jackie Rakers, coordinator of volunteers and educational programs, and high school volunteer Brooke Speranza joined in as everyone bounced on the pillow and chanted, "High, High, High, High!"
Rakers says Abbey Farm, developed in 1949, includes an emporium, used for wedding receptions most weekends. The farm also hosts a number of field trips during the school year and is known for its annual Pumpkin Days and Christmas Trees farm.

A.G.O. Onlus
Dental Gnathology Association AGO Onlus is a non-profit organization that was created in order to spread and develop knowledge about craniocervical mandibular disorders and the symptoms connected to them. It is made of physicians, dentists, radiologists, dental technicians and rehab therapists who work toward the standardization of all instrumental clinical exams. It encourages contacts with other companies interested in functional anatomic rehab of the craniocervical mandibular region.
Health excellency
A.G.O. won the Health Prize of Excellency in 2003.
During its educational activity, A.G.O. gave many interviews about gnathology in important TV shows.
Association Charter
Chapter I
Art. 1 – Establishment
Herein, it is established "AGO – ASSOCIAZIONE per la GNATOLOGIA ODONTOIATRICA, Organizzazione non lucrativa di Utilità Sociale" (AGO – Dental Gnathology Association, non-profit organization for Social Activity) shortly called "AGO – Onlus".
Art. 2 – Registered Office
AGO – Onlus puts its registered office in Rome, via Aterno, 9 and it will have the possibility to spread at regional and/or interregional level, wherever it may obtain an important number of members for the specific region.
Art. 3 – Subject and Purpose
The Association is non-profit and pursues social charity purposes in the national healthcare and the public health system, helping people suffering from pathologies that can be cured by dental gnathology and favoring, in particular, the most unprivileged.
It promoted and spreads the scientific culture of preventing, curing and rehabilitating the above-mentioned pathologies among operators, as well as patients, and defines updates and spreads all instruments and methods used to reintroduce the patients themselves into society, efficiently and permanently.
It acts autonomously, without institutional, denominational, political or union bonding, as its only limitations are the National Laws that regulate this matter and the scientific knowledge on this field.
It operates through written and oral communication, favoring, making easier and implementing the exchange of experience between operators, just through its simple secretary activity, making what expressed in art. 3 available to all operators, singles or associated with others, whatever professional qualification they have, to improve their working conditions, therapeutic abilities, theoretic knowledge, efficiency, the effectiveness of clinical interventions and a better ability to rationalize the resources available to the different services.
The Association cannot carry out activities different from the above mentioned ones or directly connected to them or from the accessory ones connected to them per nature that is supplementary to them.
The Association has a democratic structure and pursues charitable and educational goals.
The aim of the AGO – Onlus Association is:
Promote the spreading of knowledge about the relationship between temporomandibular joint disorders and dental occlusion in the dentistry field, to improve reconstructive dentistry standards for fixed and mobile prostheses and for implant prostheses, promoting the use of calculating systems able to measure the stomatognathic system through its geometric matrixes, at the same time trying to refine technical instruments that can be moved during the operative phase of reconstructive prosthetic surgery;
Better define the concept of traumatic occlusion inside the dental-alveolar occlusion matrix and its relation in the genesis of the periodontal disease;
Generally speaking, go deeper into the existing correlations between stomatognathic system and posture and the pain symptoms that interest other medical specialties, such as: otorhinolaryngology, neurology, physiatry, maxillofacial surgery and plastic surgery, psychiatry and all the activities carried on by the operators of the field who use psychokinetic and kinesiological and osteopathic criteria, as well as polyspecialistic medical centers which deal with headaches and chronical facial pain, with the aim to identify occlusal and/or physiotherapeutic and/or pharmacological rehab criteria that could help rehabilitation itself. Furthermore, AGO – Onlus cultural association will promote to dental operators as well as general practitioners and the civil society, consciousness about the importance of orthognatic therapy during D.A., for its implications in orthopedics and speech therapy on the growth of children.
AGO – Onlus will promote the cooperation between dentists and non-dentists, and dental technicians, combining their single professional experiences, creating a standard diagnostic and therapeutic method and lay the foundations for a continuous incisive review of the problems connected to the temporomandibular joint and looking for a confrontation with other poles apart methods at national and international level. In addition, it will promote the use of non-invasive diagnostic imaging systems, ultrasound especially, and its comparison with other endoscopic diagnostic methods, such as, in particular, beyond the streamlining of postsurgical rehab. On this matter, it will promote the increase of the use of informatics systems for the statistical processing of data and improve the communications between members, in order to measure the national impact of TMJ problems and its implications for the national health care and forensics systems and to determine the damage on general accident studies and more specifically on road accidents.
AGO – Onlus will promote the spreading of all therapeutic systems on the field, through meetings, courses, videos, written papers and personal contact with whoever, physicians and non-physicians, will participate in defining a clinical-instrumental calculation able to help solving temporomandibular joint disorders and its correlated painful and painless symptoms, and in defining the concept of science, in general, and medical-therapeutic, in particular, in order to overcome the unfortunate limit that the different medical specialties and the separation of work carry within, and aren't able to recall into question the historical principles it was founded on.
In particular, AGO – Onlus aims to:
Give assistance to the people unprivileged because of their physical, psychic, cerebral, social and family or humanitarian conditions;
Offer, through specific conventions, and/or managing services directly, educational, legal, financial and fiscal administrative assistance;
Favor the permanent qualification and education of physicians, dentists and dental technicians;
Require legal provisions and economic operations;
Inform the public opinion about the social services it gives.
AGO – Onlus pursuits its goals with the best possible instruments, participating and/or designing projects and accessing to public and private funding, as well as to national, international and European Union programs and funds, promoting its participation into the establishment and management of other corporations having similar goals, the printing of books, the production and distribution of books, papers, films and audiovisual products, the editing of journals and magazines, the organization of conferences, training courses and meetings.
Art. 4 – Association assets and revenue
The association assets is composed by demesne and goods and chattels coming from the Association at various title, as donations or contributions by public bodies, private citizens or natural persons, as European Union structural funds financing, national and international funds and management surplus;
To fulfill its tasks, the association can count on the following earning:
Further deposits made by founding, regular, honorary members and supporters;
Income deriving from its assets revenues;
Earnings deriving from the execution of its activities (conferences, training courses, seminars, videos, films, etc.)
Free Donations.
Every year, the Board of Directors fixes the minimum donation to pay at the moment of subscription to the association and annual contribution.
The subscription to the Association does not imply financing obligations or further cash outlay, besides the original contribution.
Contributions to the endowment can be of any extent, exception made for the minimum contribution determined as mentioned above, and they are, in any case, as free grant; never, not even in case of dissolution of the Association, of termination, exclusion, resolution or death, the contributor will file a request for the amount he deposited as endowment fund.
The donation does not give other participation rights and specifically it does not create undivided participation fee communicable to third parties, per inheritance nor per universal succession, specific succession, inter vivos transactions, or death.

Art. 8 – The Board of Directors
The Association is administered by a Board of Directors composed by, at Assembly's choice, a minimum of three to a maximum of nine members, President and Vice President included.

Art. 19 – Arbitration Clause
Any controversy should arise from the implementation or interpretation of the Charter herein and that could be subject to arbitration, will be referred to the judgment of an nonprofessional arbitrator who will judge impartially free from a procedural guideline, giving rise to a non-conventional arbitration.

A Review of La Cantine du Faubourg, Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel
Overall, particularly for the price you pay, the food ain't finger lickin good, but the atmosphere definitely makes up for it. The DJ is great, the energy is upbeat, and the service is friendly.
As inhabitants of both this blessed and cursed land, let's focus less on the negative and more on showcasing the positive. Let's try to paint a picture that's a little lighter, share smiles that are a little wider, and work towards a future that's a little brighter.
A Review of Catch at the Fairmont Dubai
Overall, the experience at Catch was great and I couldn't have asked a better experience. The service, the starters, and the desserts are the big winners.
Welcome to Worth a Taste!
Eating well is a luxury best enjoyed with friends and family. I hope this video offers you a little glimpse into my world.
A Review of Tresind, in the Radisson Royal Hotel
Tresind is one of those restaurants that's special, not because of its use of molecular gastronomy but because everything it does, it does with precision and creativity. It's not gimmicky, it's not a spectacle – it's just Indian food done a little differently and with a lot of thought.
A Review of Izakaya, in the JW Marriott
We left hungry, confused, and generally unsettled. But the good news is if you're still into funky gimmicks, Pokemon, and Japanese teenagers, then Izakaya is the perfect place for you.
A Review of Acoté, in Mar Mikhael
A great lunch spot with good food, good service, and a not-so-great but charming view.

These markers are similar to our 'damage/smoke' markers but are much larger so that you can hide behind them. No more using spare dice, pieces of paper or bits of cotton wool, you can add even detail to your table top and make it easy to see what is happening at a glance. We hope you like them and if you would like to see anything else just let us know.

Why should you apply for disability benefits from the Social Security Administration (either Social Security disability or SSI disability)? The monthly cash benefits are the main reason disability claimants apply. But you'll also qualify for medical benefits. SSI recipients get Medicaid right away, and SSDI recipients get Medicare after two years. A good percentage of disability applicants apply for disability benefits just so they can get medical care.
As to when it is worth your while to file disability claim, here are two lists that should help you decide whether to apply.
If all of the following apply to you, you should file for disability benefits.
If you believe your condition will be of an extended duration (12 months or longer) and will prevent you from earning what SGA, or substantial gainful activity, you should probably contact your nearest Social Security office and initate a claim. Don't hesitate to do this because the time required to receive a decision on a disability claim can be lengthy, and your medical condition may worsen by then.
Learn more about medical and financial eligibility for SSDI and SSI benefits.

Cost Estimation for Maintenance Contracts for Complex Asset/Equipment
Year published
MetadataShow full item record
Maintenance contracts are becoming more and more popular to the owners of complex and critical items as maintenance through contracts reduces upfront investments in infrastructure, expertise and specialised maintenance facilities. In recent years, maintenance contracts have received significant attention due to increased profits for the service providers and reduction of risk for owners through expert services provided by the service providers. To make maintenance contracts more effective, there is a need to develop mathematical models and understand future costs that could be built into the contract price. In this paper, a conceptual model is developed for estimating cost of outsourcing maintenance of complex and critical asset/equipment taking into account both corrective and preventive maintenance as servicing strategies.

There are literally millions of car accidents every year in the United States. On average, there are more than two million injuries and over 40,000 deaths. Injuries suffered in auto accidents can have a devastating impact on victims and could require weeks or even months of recovery. The drivers who cause these accidents can and should be held accountable for the harm they cause. If you have been injured in an accident that was caused by another, you need an experienced personal injury attorney on your side. There are many aspects involved in proving fault in an auto accident case. An experienced attorney can help to guide you through the process and work to ensure that your rights are protected. At the Pensacola, Florida-based, David Mann & Associates, I have been helping clients who have been injured in auto accidents for over 40 years.
Looking Out for Your Interests
I have the experience, knowledge and confidence to proactively pursue compensation for your injuries. I understand the types of injuries that can happen in auto accidents and how long the recovery period might be. Depending on the extent of your injuries, I can adjust the level of compensation I seek to allow for both the current and future costs you will incur as a result. It is my responsibility as your attorney to seek compensation wherever it is available. I look closely at your case and will work with experts as necessary to determine how the accident occurred and if there were other parties responsible. If there was an equipment malfunction or other factors that contributed to the cause of the accident, I will seek appropriate compensation under the legal theory of third party liability. In truck accident cases the driver, employer, equipment owner and others could possibly all be liable.
Call for a Free Consultation
Contact my office today via email to [email protected] to discuss your motor vehicle accident injuries. I will give you an honest assessment of your case and let you know what I can do to help. I handle every personal injury case on a contingency fee basis; you do not owe any attorney fees unless I secure a settlement or verdict for you.

Please reply.
Moto -> HTC, 06 Nov 2010Moto needs to give us something that does it all. I'd pay for that. Droid X size, Milestone 2 ... morewait for motorola terminator ?????
Moto needs to give us something that does it all. I'd pay for that. Droid X size, Milestone 2 keyboard, OMAP 4xxx proc with powerful GPU and running Android Gingerbread with a front facing camera, rear 8MP and with HDMI out like the Droid X. All nothing new to Moto.
Can someone tell me if this phone would work in States or Canada? I'm currently in Singapore but will be going back North America somewhere next year. I saw the chart and since this phone has 1900 band I assumed it would but I'm not an expert here. Thanks for your help.

In my opinion it's pointless to fight, because those 2 companies are the leaders. Both have awesome phones available on the markets. I am happy that I am an HTC and a Motorola fan. I want to see soon a review of this phone. :) Motorola is good at making QWERTY Android phones. They are better then HTC. HTC is better in other terms, such as the Ram. Both companies have some things missing, there are NO perfect companies yet.
Milestone to Desire., 02 Nov 2010Dear M,
I don't know which planet you've been on but there was a facebook page demanding Mo... moreShouldn't you expect more from the H&S brands? As these companies initially charged you more for their phones over Moto, so shouldn't they logically receive updates earlier?
Though reading articles here in GSMA and other sources, seems like the 2.2 upgrade for Galaxy already ran into some problems.
Plus neither of the company is willing to offer any Android handsets with full qwerty like Moto...at least before Desire Z is available, and NONE offers the voice quality like Moto, who IS THE LEADER in the industry.
Milestone to Desire., 02 Nov 2010Dear M, I don't know which planet you've been on but there was a facebook page demanding Mo... moreOkay that you. Moto doesn't have any problem with the update better Milestone than SE X10 which run 1.6 and receiving now 2.1 that Milestone packed long time ago. In fact Milestone was released even before X10 but with 2.0 then 2.0.1 to fix bugs, 2.1 and now coming 2.2 still Droid already received 2.2 so you better go and tell other people that no sense because Moto is one of the best on the lastest android OS update or release. Droid 2.2, Droid X 2.2, Droid 2 with 2.2, Droid 2 R2-D2 with 2.2, Milestone will get it after Milestone 2 released just like Droid received 2.2 after Droid 2 released it all. So keep it in you mind Moto is doing well.

A man who narrowly survived a cardiac arrest at a pub in Daventry is to climb up an active volcano in South America.
Graham Reeve, from Staverton, went into cardiac arrest outside The Dun Cow in Brook Street in 2012.
He was saved by friend Rob Smith who performed CPR following the advice on a British Heart Foundation(BHF) advert.
Mr Reeve later underwent a heart transplant and is now looking to climb the volcano in Ecuador to help others who have been in a similar situation.
He said: "My transplant was performed at the Harefield Hospital, and one of the surgeons there has invited 15 heart and lung transplantees on an expedition to Cotopaxi in Ecuador in June and July of this year."
There are three reasons for him and his group climbing the active volcano. He hopes to raise the awareness of the importance of donor organs, to remember individuals and families who donate organs to allow people to live and to raise funds for a piece of equipment that extends the time an organ can be in transit from three hours to eight hours.
Mr Reeve said: "We have been chosen to show the world what can be achieved after a life-saving transplant.
"As a team, we are hoping to raise the bar of expectation and generate significant awareness of organ donation, to offer hope and encouragement for those still waiting.
"Cotopaxi is one of the world's highest active volcanoes at 5,897 metres.
"It is believed that this will be the highest ever climbed by a lung transplant patient and definitely by a group of transplant patients.
"We have completed a training camp in Glencoe, Scotland, in March, and are now improving our fitness levels for the expedition itself, departing the UK on Friday June 26 to Sunday July 12.
"The plan is to undertake this amazing journey with the funding and/or support of individuals and companies. We aim to raise £100,000.
"The new technology is an 'Organ Care System' which enables the transporting of donor organs and extends the transplantation window from the existing three hour limit to eight hours, therefore having the ability to save more lives as well as providing other significant medical benefits."

I'm slightly obsessed with Gwen Stefani's style as she always looks effortlessly great and has the courage and confidence to wear whatever she wants. Gwen unashamedly mixes different genres of clothing together making her very fresh and original.
Gwen Stefani
Playing with elements of mod, harajuku, bohemian, ska, hip hop, menswear, pin up, classics and haute couture, she always manages to pull off array of looks whilst still making it her own. Stefani is bold, edgy and one seriously stylish lady!

This week, many were writing Mitt Romney's obituary of his presidential aspirations and declaring President Obama the winner about 5 weeks before the election.
Such banal conjecture was flowing from a liberal mainstream media, and even GOP political stalwarts, who had from the start questioned Romney's fitness to win against the personally popular Obama.
On the surface, there were several good reasons to justify pronouncing the race over.
First, Romney was the target of hyped condemnation for his premature, severe criticism of Obama over a news release condemning "the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims" after U.S. diplomatic compounds were attacked in Egypt and Libya.
There was also a report by Politico about serious infighting among top staffers of his campaign.
Then, the political Pièce de résistance, an explosive release by Mother Jones of a tape of Romney at a Boca Raton fundraiser stating that 47 percent of Americans are "dependent on government" and that "they think that they are entitled to healthcare, to food, to housing, to you name it."
If you had to try to define a pulling a political boner, this was it.
After the release of the fundraiser clip, GOP leaders and candidates in House and Senate races, fresh from distancing themselves from Romney's Libya remarks, once again were tripping over each other to disassociate themselves from yet another Romney gaffe. Most significant, Sen. Scott Brown of Massachusetts and Connecticut GOP Senate contender Linda McMahon both repudiated Romney's remarks.
And gleeful Democrats bounced. President Obama went on Letterman this week and stated "One of the things I learned as president is you represent the entire country. If you want to be president, you have to work for everyone."
And so did the press. Peggy Noonan in the Wall Street Journal blogged "It's time to admit the Romney campaign is an incompetent one." In a piece entitled "Let Them Eat Crab Cake," Maureen Dowd of the New York Times wrote off Romney's chances of winning "One thing we have to give Mitt, though: He is, as advertised, a brilliant manager. He's managed to ensure that President Obama has a much better chance of re-election." Timothy Noah of The New Republic wrote: "Hmm, maybe it isn't too early to declare Romney's candidacy dead after all."
To make matters worse, all major polls this week showed Romney slipping, particularly in swing states.
Yet, despite all this angst that was endured by Romney and the GOP in the last few days, the perception that these gaffes spelled early political doom was hopeful rather than intelligent reasoning by those declaring the race for president over or even others decrying a poorly run Romney campaign.
As this presidential election grows near, the framing of those gaffes in a context of fatal political blunders is nothing more than a ramping up of the staging of very effective distractions that the Obama camp and an accommodating press has been continuously throwing out there against Romney to keep him and the GOP off balance and sidetracked from pounding the president on the major issues that Americans are really concerned with, such as the economy and a dangerous, failing Middle East policy.
Each one of these three recent gaffes, taken separately or together, realistically had a news spin life of about three, four days at the most, even if they were twisted in the most cynical, direst manner.
If anything, the Obama campaign made a mistake releasing the Boca fundraiser tape way too early in this cycle. At this point, at most, it reaffirmed an already standard perception of those Romney's detractors that he is really an unfeeling, out of touch rich guy. It's being make public days before the election would have been much more effective in gaining much of those 47 percenters who are still sitting on the fence in early November.
Unlike other previous presidential races, the velocity of the news cycle and the resulting diminished attention span and interest of American voters have already depreciated the significance, and the relative damage, from these mistakes.
These gaffes signaled not the death of Romney's candidacy, but the beginning of a new, really dirty phase of the 2012 campaign that will become increasingly derisive and combative, particularly when the serious Super PAC money hits the airwaves-and as gas prices continue to climb at the pumps.
The time left to Election Day is a political eternity, and Romney can still win — and win big — in November.

Cuba teka ni apa?
Ini adalah 'kapal terbang'. I think it is interesting that they treat this as kapal terbang; with passengers on board. Ahaha. I'm not sure where does the polystyrene comes from. My suspicion, it comes from our TV box - long long time ago.
I even keep the TV box? yes i do. Hoarder kindof ;)
Anyhow, they played kapalterbang peacefully (by this i meant no bickering/gaduh/etc) for quite some time. Yeah congratulations kiddos!
You see, there are so many things to do other than watching television. Actually, i'm just lucky TV is not my passion. So its not that hard to ignore it - and impose on my kids as well

pm me where you found it to "buy"
Yes, I know, it's in the anime forum so it doesn't need anime added on to the thread title.
Anyway, I watched episode 1 and was completely underwhelmed. I'll give it a chance but so far, the story presentation in the game looks like it's going to blow the anime away. That's pretty sad seeing as tv is a storytelling medium and gaming just uses story as a way to string one action sequence to another.
pm me where you found it to "buy"
follow this easy flowchart
is it anime? -> yes -> it sucks
My Backloggery
mzo, you're so old hat. TNL has grown even past its hate of anime. We've now moved on into apathy of everything that isn't various TNLers getting laid.
Is this a hentai with Alicia?
I'd be down for that.
Boo, Hiss.
Had a spare 20+ minutes to watch the second episode. I honestly don't understand why this sucks so much. They had the entire thing storyboarded out in the video game and decided it wasn't retarded enough. "I'm not joining the army to fight, I'm joining to end the fighting." Is it possible to set an .avi on fire?
if there is a love story between him, Alica, and Blis, Macross rip off confirmed.

After skateboarding for some time, your skateboard wheels and bearings could be blocked by dirt, thereby affecting the movement of your skateboard. You would want to pull some stunts and tricks, but owing to seized up wheels, you may not be able to pull them smoothly. Fortunately, cleaning the wheels and bearings is very simple, and just needs some dismantling and a bit of safe cleaning. It doesn't require any unique skills and it what you can do all by yourself. Once your wheels and bearings are free of built-up dirt, you will be cruising around on your best wheels for skateboard effortlessly.
Table of Contents
Start by wiping down the entire board with a shop rag. Warm water is perfect for most skateboards to get rid of the surface dirt, but if there is no warm water, water with normal temperature too will do the work just fine. Before you begin taking things off, ensure to dry the skateboard completely. Likewise, it is good to have a level surface free of dirt to place the skateboard upon. For best outcomes utilize the board tools made especially for your kind of board and when replacing parts, make sure to do so on manufacturer's recommendations.
Remove the wheels from the board
Now to the primary process. What's next now is to turn the board over so it's laying on the deck, and the wheels facing up. Use a 13mm or ½ inch socket wrench for the removal of the axle bolts and nuts on the outer sides of the wheels. Make sure to put all the wheel materials together in a place so you could find them easily when fixing back after cleaning. You should know this is necessary if you don't want your skateboard to end up missing one or two components.
Remove the bearings from the wheels
After removing the wheels from the board, you can pry out the bearings from the wheels using the truck axle. Insert the metal rod slightly through the wheels, then to the first bearing by placing the wheels on the end of the truck axle. Then allow the truck axle to hook on the bearings and pull the wheel top from the skateboard.
What you have just done now can be likened to opening the bottle top with a bottle opener, simple as that. Once you removed a bearing in that manner, utilize the same technique to remove the rest of the bearings on the other wheels. When doing this, make sure the wheels and bearings are separated from each other.
- If you managed to remove the bearing in the manner above, you could likewise use a screwdriver to remove the bearings by prying them out. Just clutch the sides of the wheel out before you, embed the screwdriver tip in the front of that wheel, then draw the screwdriver to one side and release the bearing.
- Once you detach the bearings from the wheels of your skateboard, then a bearing spacer will drop out from the middle of the wheel. Keep this in a sheltered place so you could reassemble the bearings and wheels later. Also when reassembling, do not forget to return the bearing spacer back to its appropriate place.
Cleaning the pieces
There are numerous hypotheses regarding the best approach to clean the bearings and wheels. Some use a wet wipe or paper other use solvent and rag. On a longboard skateboard, there will be bearings. But, on a regular skateboard, there may be no bearing. About cleaning the metal components, you should take note of few things:
- Handle the bearings gently. They are costly, and you would prefer not to damage them.
- Apply thin layers if you are using a polish like Brasso.
- Ensure that no fuzzies are left with the bearings from your rag after cleaning the metal pieces.
- Clean your trusses always. Keep in mind to add grease to the wheel mount with for you to have proper footing.
The Wheels
The most straightforward part of this process is perhaps cleaning the wheels. This is the focus of this article and you should pay utmost attention here. When doing this, you can make use of rag and water. In the event that there are decals on the wheels, you can't just use any cleaner. Always ensure the wheels are completely dry to prevent damage. You can also spin them around to ensure no part of the wheel is left undried.
Reassemble the bearings in the wheels
After cleaning wheel bearings and wheels, you can then put back the bearings into the wheels. Place a bearing on the side of the wheel and snap it in using your fingers. At that point, turn over the wheel and put the bearing divider, and adjust the other bearing properly. Repeat this process for the remaining bearings.
Reattach the wheels to your skateboard
After attaching the bearings to the wheels, then slide each wheel back onto the truck axle one by one. Insert the axle nut back to the outer side of the wheel and tighten it well with the socket wrench. When putting everything back together, avoid jamming the wheel onto the board as this could damage the board especially if it is made of wood. Do this for the rest of the wheels.
In the event that when dismantling your wheel you noticed damaged wheels or bearings, at that point, you have to replace the bearings or wheels. Do not say you want to manage it for a little while, aside from hindering your skating moves; it could cause serious injuries to you. Cleaning may only ensure that the issue is corrected for a brief span.
However, it is never a good idea to delay replacement. Owing an item like skateboard is good but also requires a lot of maintenance, if you want to be getting the best out of your skateboard. If you want to be rolling smoothly on your skateboard without any hindrance, proper cleaning from time to time is a must.
That's all for today. For more, please visit our homepage for more tutorials 😉

Nature-Inspired Stitchwork
Nature, the ultimate muse, has provided endless inspiration for all forms of needlework throughout time. From the most delicate bobbin-lace patterns to handknitted Lithuanian-colorwork mittens, nature's influence is evident. Nature-inspired stitchwork spans the globe and is captured in Elizabethan tapestries and depicted in intricate embroidered Chinese Imperial Rank Badges. Issue after issue, PieceWork rejoices in nature's glory and timeless splendor.
Spring brings the promise of nature's bounty as winter's grasp gives way to a vivid floral display. Capturing this abundance is a favorite theme for needleworkers. Nature-inspired stitchwork compels embroiderers, knitters, crocheters, tatters, and sewers alike to take up their needles, hooks, and shuttles and replicate the magnificence before them. PieceWork designers frequently feel the pull to emulate nature's profusion.
- Featured in the March/April 2006 issue, Teresa Layman's exquisite Miniature Knotted Garden Rug's rhythmic embroidered Colonial and French knots unite to form a textured pile depicting a peaceful floral garden surrounded by a flutter of butterflies.
- Knitwear designer Eileen Lee re-created a field of poppies in her double-knitted cowl—A Red Poppy Cowl to Knit—from the March/April 2014 issue. During World War I, the corn poppy (Papaver rhoeas) carpeted the battlefields and inspired Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae (1872–1918), a Canadian medical officer, to pen the poem "In Flanders Fields" in May 1915, referencing the accumulation of poppies growing on soldiers' graves. Lee's cowl is inspired by the custom of wearing a red poppy in remembrance of veterans lost in times of war that harkens back to the years following the Armistice in 1918.
- Traditional Orenburg-style lace motifs, including Strawberry and Honeycomb, envelop the wearer's shoulders in the trio of Silk-Blend Lace Cowls to Knit designed by Inna Voltchkova from the November/December 2016 issue. Knit in three divine natural-colored silk-blend laceweight yarns—it's heavenly on your needles.
The endless array of nature's beauty can never truly be matched—but that won't keep us from aspiring to reproduce nature's majesty with the humble thread and needle. And PieceWork will continue to recount the nature-inspired stitchwork of generations past.
Happy stitching!

Singapore's Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp has made an offer to buy Wing Hang Bank for HK$38.428 billion ($4.95 billion) after reaching a deal with major shareholders including the founding family of the Hong Kong-based lender.
The deal was the outcome of months of negotiations, with the deadline for an agreement extended twice. The acquisition, OCBC's biggest, would give Singapore's second-largest bank a much sought-after gateway to the Greater China region, where it earned 6 percent of its pre-tax earnings in 2013.

The purchase would also help OCBC narrow the gap with domestic rival DBS Group, which operates Hong Kong's fifth-biggest bank.
Shares of OCBC rose 0.63 percent in early Singapore trading on Tuesday, following the announcement of the deal. Wing Hang Bank was up 0.16 percent in Hong Kong.
