Did you initiate the contact?
What was it regarding?
Do you have the name of a person in the firm claiming to be a solicitor/attorney?Tom
Thanks for your reply.
There don't actually claim to be a practice of solicitors. They are a claims handling company who will then put you in touch with their solicitors. The handling fee of £850.00 is quite steep though and while there is nothing to suggest that they are not genuine you can probably get yourself a better deal elsewhere.
Abogados is the Spanish word for lawyers. There is a national bar association of abogados called Consejo General de la Abogacía Española (http://www.cgae.es/portalCGAE/home.do) a regional bar association called Colegios de Abogados where all abogados have to be registered. The national association will be able to refer you to the appropriate regional association where your claim is to be issued.
If you decide to proceed with the above company then you can check the details of the solicitors they use by contacting the above associations to verify their credentials.
Personally I would just instruct a solicitor directly by finding them throught the associations.
If this has been useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. It will be gratefully received and you will be free to ask follow up questions.Kind regards,Tom
As I have said above you have to ask which of the regional bar associations he is registered with and then check independently with the association to verify that he is an abogados.
Really though, I would still think it cheaper to instruct a solicitor directly rather than through a claims company.

Author | Ashish Jha | Wednesday, Nov 17,2010 7:32 AM
Amid the insightful sessions and addresses, the Mumbai leg of the Pitch CMO Summit 2010, held on November 16, saw a buzz of excitement when Sanjay Tripathy, Executive Vice President and Head – Marketing, HDFC Standard Life, unveiled the company's new logo and corporate identity at the event.
Organised by 'Pitch' magazine, the advertising and marketing monthly from the exchange4media Group, the Summit saw India's top marketers sharing their marketing mantras. The Pitch CMO Summit this year also marked the seventh anniversary celebrations of 'Pitch' magazine.
Speaking on the occasion, Sanjay Tripathy remarked that the new logo brought a lot of energy into the life insurance brand. "The new logo comes with lots of energy and youthfulness. It is also full of aspirational values. The red colour is symbolic to vibrancy and liveliness that the brand injects into customers life," he explained.
While admitting that the products that each player offered in the life insurance sector were largely similar, Tripathy emphasised that marketers needed to go beyond what they could offer. "Marketers now have to think what consumers need. Consumers' needs and preferences have to get reflected in the products that we offer," he said, adding, "Marketers need to have a better consumer insight."
Tripathy also shared his experience of working in the particular category. He remarked that the life insurance category in India was still to grow as most of the market still remained untapped. "A great opportunity is laying ahead with the marketers to devise customised offerings and make huge profits by way of serving people in a better way," he affirmed.
The other top marketers who shared their rich marketing lessons and expert views at the Pitch CMO Summit 2010 in Mumbai included Sanjay Behl, CEO, Reliance Big TV; Chandramouli Venkatesan, Director, Strategy & Chocolates, Cadbury; Shripad Nadkarni, Founder-Director, MarketGate Consulting; Anup Jain, Director, Marketing, Pizza Hut Indian Sub-continent; Ronita Mitra , Head – Corporate Brand Group, ICICI Bank; Vinay Bhatia, VP - Marketing and Loyalty, Shoppers Stop; Sriram Padmanabhan, General Manager, Marketing, Ford India; Peshwa Acharya, VP & Head – Marketing and Consumer Experience, Reliance Retail; and Pratik Seal, Head, Marketing, Micromax.

Have an opinion?
You just have to realize that people are people, boy, girl, your both probably thinking the same things in a general sense, your probably both nervous, etc.. This is a mind trick your playing on yourself. Slow your mind down, let things happen as they do, let go of any expectations and some of that pressure will lift!
You could tell him how you feel, he may think it's cute and help you relax.

Heaven in Trenches
Mr. Brown: Welcome, ladies and gentlelice, to your favorite night show, Let's Have A Chat! (distant clapping) Tonight we'll be talking to our esteammed guest, the Head Louse!
Head Louse: It's nice to be here, Mr. Brown.
Mr. Brown: So, I hear that your thinking of moving to France for awhile, am I right?
Head Louse: You've heard correctly, it seems like an obvious choice.
Mr. Brown: Why do you say that?
Head Louse: Because the conditions seem just perfect for a relaxing time of eating and sleeping, Mr. Brown.
Mr. Brown: Oh really? How so?
Head Louse: Apparently, there are these huge holes that have been dug in the ground by these huge two-legged creatures, and they are warm and wet, just like my home country.
Mr. Brown: Ohhh, sounds like a good time to me. Is the food good?
Head Louse: Yes, those two-legs taste quite good. We do have to feed 12 times a day, you know.
Mr. Brown: Yes, I'm well aware of that. My stomach growls constantly, aching for bloodly goodness.
Head Louse: Now, now, don't get ahead of yourself Mr. Brown, we still have many mouths to feed.
Mr. Brown: Yes, yes, you're right. Laying 5 eggs a day is tiresome, you know?
Head Louse: True enough, though it must be harder on my wife.
(distant laughing)
Mr. Brown: Back to the subject, it isn't too hot over in France, is it? You know we lice just can't stand that kind of heat.
Head Louse: Well now, as long as no one tries to burn us off themselves with a candle, I assure you we'll be just fine.
Mr. Brown: Hmm...yes. Are you worried that the eggs might not stay on if the two-legs take a bath?
Head Louse: Not at all. Our eggs are resilient, and tough. I believe that they will stay on no matter what happens to them.
Mr. Brown: Aren't we the confident one?
Head Louse: You should be too, that is how we all are still here, isn't it?
Mr. Brown: I must admit, you're right there, Head Louse. Also, do you think that the two-legs will get any...symptoms from our snacking?
Head Louse: That is always possible Mr. Brown. Things such as pyrrexhia could be transferred from us to them, although it will not affect us in any way. It won't kill the two-leg either, so they should be fine.
Mr. Brown: Alright, final question of the night before time runs out. What kind of envirorment will you create when you get there?
Head Louse: We create a sort of sour; stale smell and inhabit every bit of the land we come across. Doesn't that sound good to you?
Mr. Brown: Very good, Head Louse. Well, that's all we have for tonight folks! Good-night and see you tomorrow!

Building bridges in MadridPosted by James Marland in SAP Ariba Live on May 23, 2016 6:58:23 AM
Since the dawn of time, we've been building bridges. Their construction and geometry varies widely in terms of span, material, form and placement. But whether as rudimentary as a fallen log across a stream, or a complex feat of engineering like a suspension bridge, they all share a similar purpose: to carry something or someone across a space or obstacle.
Now, you won't find me viaduct-spotting or waxing lyrical about trusses, but in Madrid recently I drove under a pair of bridges that got me thinking. So on my return I did a little research. Madrid experienced rapid urban growth in the 2000s, and with the expansion a series of new motorways appeared. The Madrileños were keen to buck the trend of typical motorway footbridges and asked architect Leonardo Fernández Troyano to construct this pair of elegant suspension bridges, which you can see over the Motorways R-3 and M-40.
It made me wonder how suspensions bridges are actually built, and I tracked down this image which shows one of them under construction. The answer is obvious really:
A Bridge is always built from both sides
There are several ways to build a bridge, but for suspension bridges, the way this is done is to build it from both sides. Trying to do it from one direction only is inherently unstable.
This is what we will be talking about at our upcoming conference. How do you build a connection between your buyers and your suppliers. Answer: you need to build both sides at the same time.
For Buyers that means addressing: motivation, ease-of use, on boarding, training and making sure what they need to buy is actually there. It also means that the Business Unit owners (who direct the Buyers) need to understand the benefits of the system, and be able to track the adoption and payback. Only then can they encourage/mandate the end users.
For Sellers that means an efficient, localised on boarding which takes care of technical and business challenges
I see some striking similarities in the way that a commerce network is created. It's effectively a bridge that spans the gap between trading partners, providing safe and compliant passage for transactions. But crucially, it needs to support a viable business model at both ends, providing value to vendors and buyers in order to maintain its structural integrity. Favouring sellers over buyers, or vice versa, would result in something wonky and unstable.
Take the Ariba Network, for example. As the world's largest B2B marketplace which just recently passed the Trillion Dollar mark, it connects a global community of large and small businesses, which collectively have an enormous impact on ecommerce:
- The Ariba Network enables companies to tap into the biggest digital supplier base, streamline its procurement, collaborate with suppliers in multiple ways, and simplify interactions with other, complementary business functions.
- Business collaboration means joining a global community of trading partners who share these best practices to accelerate, optimize, and simplify transactions – and enjoy tight yet flexible interactions
- The network offers true flexibility without compromising transparency.
- Leveraging the Ariba Network both simplifies and accelerates collaboration externally with suppliers and internally among key stakeholders. The gains are both quantitative and qualitative in nature, improving a wide range of interactions and touch points between trading partners.
So, to "mind the gap" a bridge or network needs to be built from both sides.
The best chance to see these bridges, and learn how eCommerce can span the gap between trading partners is to attend SAPAribaLive. You'll hear about the volumes and connections of the world's largest B2B network, and hear from dozens of companies on both sides on the bridge: Buyers and Sellers talking about how the network has improved their business.

I am 28 years old, which I understand is close to the mean/median age of MMO players. I started playing Final Fantasy games in 1997 at age 15 when FFVII hit. This fancy new thing called Playstation's graphics blew my young impressionable mind and the story seemed age appropriate and compelling. I was hooked. After that I bought Final Fantasy tactics, which I loved, and, in the years following, I picked up all the FFs released on PS2 and a few re-releases.
During this period I had no knowledge of Squaresoft or Square Enix other than the fact that their name was on the boxes I had been buying at every opportunity for a decade, which is to say, I thought they were awesome.
When FFXI launched in 2003 I was busy going to college [and the bar]. I had no idea what an MMO was. Indeed, few people did. After my raucous college years passed, life began to settle down [a little]. Since I had some free time again I picked up FFXI. I had no idea what I was getting into.
I ended up playing the game for three and a half years; joined a great LS, leveled 6 jobs, and conquered all the content that was in the game at the time. In many ways, it was a great experience.
However, there were so many god **** things in that game to complain about!!! I eventually got sick of it; RMT, the economy (15m g scorpion harness?), the drama caused by bots, crazy balance issues (SMN; completely useless? or just useless for everything but HNMs?, BLM woes/TP burn), and of course SE's reckless use of the ban hammer and lack of customer service. The way SE handled all of that stuff was mind boggling.
Of course all this reflection has been inspired by FFXIV. A new generation of gamers are playing. I am old to many of them (young at heart though). Outside of XI, the best FF ever got for me was VII and Tactics. Had I not played those games when they came out, which many new gamers did not, I wouldn't be so attached to the FF brand. I haven't followed all the spin-offs that have come out in recent years, so I don't know if the quality of those games is enough to bring new players into the fold?
Do younger gamers have any investment in the FF series, or MMOs at all? How do your gaming behaviors reflect your age?

Looking purely at Jaguar's most recent vehicles, it would be easy to
say that the brand is on a roll. Especially if you focus in on the lithe,
luxurious XJ sedans and the new XK coupes and convertibles, Jaguars are, by a
long shot, better than they've been in decades and arguably, the best ever.
They're well built, with striking designs, and engineered as well as anything
Earlier this year, Jaguar introduced its all-new XK coupe and convertible. With a completely new chassis, including a lighter, stiffer, all-aluminum body, beautifully designed inside and out, with a uniquely British style, the new XK is a revelation among grand touring coupes.
While the new XK, thanks to its lighter weight, is already about as fast as the former XKR, it's been no secret all along that an even higher-performance, supercharged XKR version was on the way.
It's almost here. Set to arrive in dealerships beginning in October, the new XKR gets 120 more horsepower (40 percent more) than the XK, yet the 'R' tips the scales only slightly heavier than the XK and about 200 pounds lighter than the last-generation XKR. With 420 horsepower on tap for well under 3700 pounds for the coupe, the XKR has an impressive power-to-weight ratio that's actually 36 percent better than the standard XK. The Mercedes-Benz SL55 and M6, though they have more power, are also considerably heavier and it's not that big of a difference.

Brigantine native Jerry Ryan believes we're all put on this Earth to make a difference.
"It's our job to find out what makes us tick, what we're passionate about, and use those things to make the world a better place," Ryan said.
In a blending of his own passions and interests, which includes music and advocating for children with autism, Ryan organized the inaugural Elephants for Autism Music Festival last year, a three-day nonstop jam session fundraiser in Atlantic City. It drew more than 100 bands and hundreds of attendees, raising about $5,000 for his cause.
This year's second annual Elephants for Autism Music Festival is set for May 19-21 and once again will gather more than 100 bands to perform through the weekend at the Boneyard and Le Grande Fromage, both in Atlantic City. Some popular bands to perform will include Position 9, the Mahlors, Juggernaut Drunk, Out of the Beardspace and the Galt Line, Ryan said.
Ryan is a music aficionado and the founder Elephant Talk Indie Magazine in 2009. His 10-year-old son, Jeremy, has autism. Jeremy also plays the piano and loves music, like his dad.
After witnessing music's positive effects on his son, Ryan began wanting to share the power of music with other children with autism, specifically those whose families can't afford extracurricular music programs.
Through the music festival, he is able to do just that. One hundred percent of the proceeds of this year's festival will go to Music Academy for Special Learners in Ronkonkoma, N.Y., a school that specializes in one-on-one instrumental lesson, music therapy and art instruction to people with disabilities, most of whom have autism, said Maria LaMon, owner of the academy.
The money will be used to provide need-based scholarships, LaMon said, adding that she plans to seek out students in need who could benefit from the school once she has the funding in place.
"It's such a beautiful, heartwarming thing that Jerry is doing," she said. "Music is an amazing learning tool for people with autism. It helps with their fine motor skills, hand and eye coordination, communication skills, but most of all it gives them a sense of pride and accomplishment. We don't focus on perfection at our school, our focus is on joy."
Ryan said of all the things he has done in his life, nothing has made him as excited as organizing the Elephants for Autism event.
"Knowing that these kids will be given the same opportunities as my son makes me extremely proud, but to take away the financial pressures is the icing on the cake," he said. "Having a child with autism, who excels in music, has helped me choose this course in life. My son inspires me to go bigger and do everything humanly possible every day to share this love of music. So basically, we are healing each other through music."

2007-08 Team Preview: Phoenix Coyotes
Bruce Bennett/Getty Images
The Starting Line
By Scott BurnsideLast season, the Phoenix Coyotes' ad slogan was "A Decade in the Desert." It now has morphed into "Eleven Years in the Wasteland -- and Counting." A valiant attempt last offseason to accelerate the rebuilding process of one of the NHL's longest-suffering teams quickly went off the rails and ended with a house-cleaning at the top. New GM Don Maloney, witness to overspending and unwise decisions during his years with the New York Rangers, promises to take a slow and steady approach in trying to rebuild the franchise. Such a plan promises much more short-term pain, however, and it remains to be seen whether the team can survive in the market during this period. The other main question is: What will happen to coach Wayne Gretzky along the way? Does he have the stamina or the will to see this process through? And who tells him he can't do the job, if or when it comes to that? OFFENSE
The Coyotes, who finished dead last in the Western Conference, scored just 216 goals last season, 24th overall. Given the strides taken by the teams that finished below them, it seems likely the Coyotes will finish dead last in offense this season. Harsh? Well, consider that an already-paper-thin lineup now will be without Yanic Perreault, Owen Nolan, Jeremy Roenick and Kevyn Adams from last year's group. Realistically, there are three players who have a legitimate chance of scoring 20 goals: captain Shane Doan (who led the Coyotes with 55 points last season), Steve Reinprecht and Radim Vrbata (who came from Chicago in exchange for Adams). Mike York might sneak in there, too, but only by default. After that? Well, let's just say there will be ample opportunity for pretty much anyone with a stick and a pair of skates to make an impression. Rookies who got a brief taste last season, including Bill Thomas, Daniel Carcillo and Joel Perreault, will get a chance to grow up in a hurry. There also might be room for one or more of Peter Mueller (the eighth pick in 2006), Martin Hanzal (the 17th pick in 2005) and Blake Wheeler (the fifth pick in 2004). It probably is too early for center Kyle Turris, the third pick in this past June's draft. But, with this team, the door is wide open. DEFENSE
As bad as things have gotten in Phoenix, it's hard to believe they could get any worse. But if you're a glass-half-full kind of person, it definitely applies to the team's defensive future. Start with twin defensive gems Zbynek Michalek and Keith Ballard. Then consider Brendan Bell (the former junior hockey defenseman of the year who came in the trade-deadline deal that sent Yanic Perreault to Toronto), Keith Yandle (a diamond in the rough discovered with the 105th pick in 2005) and Matt Jones (who logged 16:22 a night in 45 games as a rookie). It's an impressive group that should learn a lot if Ed Jovanovski can return to full strength after an injury-plagued first season in Phoenix limited him to 54 games. Nick Boynton's name will continue to surface in trade talks, but he needs to rediscover his hard-nosed game and stay healthy after playing in just 59 games since he came over from Boston prior to the start of last season. GOALTENDING
"What goaltending?" might be a better tagline for a team that seems to have cornered the market on floundering former goaltending prospects. With Alex Auld, Mikael Tellqvist, David LeNeveu and David Aebischer all fighting for playing time, it's pretty much a given that no other NHL team will start the season with as poor a goaltending situation as the Coyotes. Maybe one or more of these young netminders will rediscover their game and make the Coyotes the surprise team some thought they were going to be last season. But we doubt it. COACHING
Gretzky has seen his Coyotes go from 39 losses his first year to 46 last season, and there is every chance his squad will hit the 50-loss mark this season, given the bevy of talent in the conference. For the NHL's greatest player, these first two seasons have been hard lessons in the nature of NHL coaching and team-building. Veteran players who were brought in to provide stability have flamed out (Roenick, Brett Hull and Dave Scatchard). His own assistant coach, Rick Tocchet, thought it was OK to take part in an illegal gambling ring. His longtime friend, former GM Mike Barnett, was canned at the end of the season, and new owners promised this wasn't going to be Gretzky's fiefdom anymore. All of which brings us to the issue of just how much longer Gretzky will hang around. If the team can show signs of turning the tide, then watch for Gretzky to push and finish the job he started. Top priority will be in improving special teams, since the penalty kill was 28th and the power play 22nd. Scott Burnside is the NHL writer for ESPN.com.

Flowers... was Valorie even into that kind of stuff? Well.... it was worth a go anyways! Everyone did it after all! Mark just shrugged though. "I'm not sure if theres any particular flowers she likes... Oh! I should point out that she's a very very big fan of Dragons. If you can work something like that in I'm sure she would love it! Make it look cool like that!... but where are we going to find Dragon Pokemon to help with that kind of thing?" Mark wondered.
Snype hugged Thyme as she got back up into Bri's arms. "Watch yourself around Roberto over there. He kinda hates me and for good reason... sorta. Its a long story." Snype said to her.
Len blushed again as well. This sure wasn't going anywhere. At this rate Len would be a Red Poliwhirl! Maybe a talk would settle them a bit... Len whispered to Diana. "...if you want to talk about it... we could chat in private if you like..." Len said.
Able giggled and leaned her head closer to his with a smirk. "Aww you wouldn't light me on fire! You lovveee me too much!" Able teased, not meaning to suggest anything in particular.

text: Washington (ANI): L.A. County Sheriffs Department wants to interrogate the 12-year-old son of Oksana Grigorieva in connection with the Mel Gibson investigation. They believe the boy has critical information about his moms volatile relationship with the actor.According to sources, Alexander Dalton saw many of the blowups between them, both before and after the explosive January 6 showdown. Dalton lived with Gibson and Grigorieva while they were together, and is considered a very important percipient witness to Sheriffs investigators, reports TMZ.It is also believed that though Alexander did not witness Gibson allegedly striking Grigorieva, he might have been in the vicinity, heard the argument and saw the aftermath. Grigorieva will not try and prevent Sheriffs investigators from interviewing him.

Pierre Maillard
Abbé Pierre Antoine Simon Maillard (c. 1710 – 12 August 1762) was a French-born Roman Catholic priest. He is noted for his contributions to the creation of a writing system for the Mi'kmaq indigenous people of Île Royale, Cape Breton Island, Canada. He is also credited with helping negotiate a peace treaty between the British and Mi'kmaq people, which resulted in the Burying the Hatchet Ceremony (Nova Scotia). He was the first Catholic priest in Halifax and is buried in the Protestant church yard of St. Paul's Church (Halifax).[2][3][4]
Early years[edit]
Maillard was born in the diocese of Chartres, France around 1710.[5] He received his ecclesiastical training at the Séminaire de Saint-Esprit in Paris. In 1734 the Abbé de L'Isle-Dieu selected Maillard in a group of seminarists lent to the Séminaire des Missions Étrangeres, which was short of personnel. After eight months in that institution, Maillard was selected (1735)[6] for the Mi'kmaq missions on Cape Breton Island (called Île Royale at that time). His recommendation letter stated "he is a young priest who has greatly edified us . . full of zeal and piety."
Maillard arrived at Fortress Louisbourg on the ship Rubis on 13 August 1735.[7][8] He worked extensively with the Mi'kmaq people. He became a witness to,[9] and eventually a reluctant participant in[10] the ongoing struggles between French and British forces for control of the area.
Maillard quickly immersed himself in learning and becoming proficient in the language of the natives. He also devoted himself to missionary work, visiting all the settlements on Île Royale, Île Saint-Jean (now called Prince Edward Island) and English Acadia (now called Nova Scotia). He pleaded for additional assistance from his French superiors, who responded by sending Jean-Louis Le Loutre. The two worked together on developing the written language.
In 1740 Maillard was appointed Bishop of Quebec's vicar-general for Île Royale. In 1742 this position created friction between his superiors and the provincial of the Recollets of Brittany, who wanted his men to be independent of Maillard's control. Maillard took every opportunity to criticize the conduct of those workers; his severity led Duquesnel (Le Prévost) and François Bigot to demand Maillard's recall,[8] but Maillard's superior (Bishop Pontbriand) reached a compromise by dividing the vicar general's powers between Maillard and the superior of the Recollets in Louisbourg. This arrangement continued until 1754, when Bishop Pontbriand confirmed Maillard in his functions as vicar general, which he exercised alone from that point on.
King George's War[edit]
Along with Abbe Le Loutre, Maillard was involved in supporting the Mi'kmaq, French and Acadians throughout King George's War. He was present when Annapolis Royal was under siege, and after the fall of Louisbourg in June 1745, Maillard encouraged Micmaq warriors to mount raids against British forces.
In the closing months of 1745 the British captured Maillard and sent him to Boston. From there he was deported to France. However, he quickly (1746) returned to Acadia on with the Duc d'Anville Expedition, which was coordinated with Father Le Loutre. He took active part in military campaigns during the winter of 1746-47 directed by Jean-Baptiste-Nicolas-Roch de Ramezay, such as the Battle of Grand Pre.
Father Le Loutre's War[edit]
During Father Le Loutre's War, Maillard encouraged the Mi'kmaq declaration of war against the British. Maillard was involved with resisting the founding of Halifax, Nova Scotia in the summer of 1749.[8] In an attempt to remove his influence from the ongoing events in the area, Halifax Governor Edward Cornwallis tried to persuade Maillard to retire to Minas Basin. In apparent response to this pressure, the French King awarded Maillard an 800 livre annual pension in 1750, and another assistant (the Abbé Jean Manach) was dispatched to assist Maillard with his workload. From his mission on Île de la Sainte-Famille, Maillard continued to incite his Mi'kmaq contacts to a state of war until 1758.
To assist the religious efforts Maillard self-financed construction of buildings (beginning 1754) on Île de la Sainte-Famille (now called Chapel Island) in the south of Grand Lac de La Brador, where his main mission was located (he did receive a reimbursement of 3,000 French livres in March 1757).[8]
French and Indian War[edit]
During the French and Indian War, Maillard relocated to Malagomich (now known as Merigomish, Nova Scotia) in order to escape the ever-increasing British presence (1758).[8] He was still there on 26 November 1759, when he and several other French missionaries accepted an offer of peace from British Major Schomberg,[11] In light of this acceptance, French military officer Jean-François Bourdon de Dombourg dispatched an accusatory dossier against the missionaries to the French Governor of the Canadian Territories, who thereupon accused the missionaries of treason and dispatched (spring 1760) a military officer to Restigouche to investigate. To this officer Maillard sent a letter detailing the near-hopeless situation of the Mi'kmaq, in which he opened "by summing up 23 years . . spent in this country in the service of our Religion and our Prince." He had indeed treated for peace with the British because of the hopeless situation, as he tried to explain.
Shortly afterward, Maillard accepted an invitation from Nova Scotia Governor Charles Lawrence to travel to Halifax and assist in pacifying the Mi'kmaq peoples. He became a British official ("Government Agent to the Indians", with an annual salary of £150). He asked for (and received) permission to maintain an oratory at a Halifax battery, where he held Catholic services for Acadians and Mi'kmaqs in the area.[12] In his official capacity Maillard was able to obtain agreement from most of the tribal chiefs to sign peace treaties with the British in Halifax.[13]
In July 1762 Maillard fell seriously ill. On 12 August he died, attended (at his request) by Anglican clergyman Thomas Wood.[15] Maillard was accorded a State Funeral by the Nova Scotia Governor; his pallbearers included the Council President and the Speaker of the Assembly. The government thus recognized his role in negotiating peace treaties between the Mi'kmaq and the British (see Burying the Hatchet Ceremony (Nova Scotia)), and his forceful personality. He was buried in an unmarked grave in the Saint Paul's Burial Ground.
Reverend Wood wrote of Maillard:
- "He was a very sensible, polite, well bred man, an excellent scholar and a good sociable companion, and was much respected by the better sort of people here as it appeared."[8]
Maillard gave all his belongings away prior to his death. Most of his books were donated to recognized collections of the time.[16] His other belongings were bequeathed to Louis Petitpas, his only companion and confidential agent since 1749, and in whose home he lived while in Halifax.[8]
As soon as Maillard arrived in Louisbourg, he immersed himself in studying the native language, under the tutelage of his predecessor the Abbé de Saint-Vincent. Having a remarkable talent for languages, he succeeded within a few months in mastering the difficult-to-pronounce oral language, and during the winter of 1737-38[8] perfected a system of hieroglyphics to transcribe Mi'kmaq words. He used these symbols to write formulas for the principal prayers and the responses of the faithful, in the catechism, so his followers might learn them more readily. In this development he was greatly aided by Jean-Louis Le Loutre, another French missionary. Le Loutre marveled at Maillard's achievements in his later reports:
- " . . a naturalized Indian as regards language . . [he succeeded in acquiring the gift of rhyming at each member of a sentence, being able to] . . speak Micmac with as much ease and purity as do their women who are the most skilled in this style."[8]
Scholars generally agree that Maillard did not invent the Mi'kmaq hieroglyphics. In 1691 Father Chrétien Le Clercq reported that he had devised a similar method to catechize the Mi'kmaq inhabitants of the Gaspé Peninsula; apparently he had systemized and expanded the Mi'kmaq custom[17] of setting down short messages by using pictograms. There is no direct evidence that Maillard was aware of Le Clercq's work; in any event Maillard's work is outstanding in that he left numerous works in the language, which continued in use among the Mi'kmaq into the 20th century.[18][19]

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Inc, Kendalia, TX, USA
Years ago, I took a hummingbird with a broken wing to WWR. They had several at the time, and I was impressed by the scope of the operation. Since then, I have been a supporter. Besides feeling wonderful about all the Animals who are saved and given meaningful lives, I am a fan of the touching stories written by the founder about the Animals and their lives. These stories have meant so much to me; they show me the great law of Love that rules the universe. Please support this wonderful organization.

City on a Hill Health Clinic offers free medical care for minor accidents or diseases for those with out insurance. But for the everyday well being care practitioner, essentially the most impactful of these has been coverage reforms that emphasize quality and value containment. Health & Medicine will likely be convening a small group quickly to overview the forum proceedings and talk about next steps for our work on this critical space, which we'll share on our website. We welcome posts both from people working towards medical-authorized partnership and from those that work in well being, authorized and public well being fields. Many worry that the FDA will create a situation the place the only corporations who can manufacture supplements will be the pharmaceutical industry.
The Strategy, once fully developed will likely be presented to the Australian Health Ministers Advisory Committee (AHMAC) before being advisable to the COAG Health Council for endorsement. The apple is talked about ten occasions within the Bible, and in historical times was a highly prized commodity (and at present stills holds an esteemed place in society for its well being advantages). It is disappointing, however to be expected, that distribution of the document has been curtailed by the Department fairly than made more broadly out there (it should not be a problem that it is a tough draft). Attached is a duplicate of the draft National Digital Health Strategy 2016-2019 (the Strategy) to your evaluate and remark.
We often talk about health care corruption , regardless of the obvious taboo against doing so. As we just noted , this comes as Transparency International is launching a serious initiative in opposition to well being care corruption. Know the various health benefits of lettuce that one can enjoy using this very versatile leafy vegetable. Where the problem lies is that the Department must be brazenly and genuinely searching for to acquire the maximum viewpoint / opinions potential, as grist for his or her mill. Land of Lincoln Health insurance coverage will end for consumers as of October 1, 2016.
The major objective of this hub is to assess some achievements of the Vietnam's health care system since Doi moi. You can back up data saved in the Health app to iCloud, the place it's encrypted whereas in transit and at relaxation. Private sufferers forced to use their health cover in a public setting overwhelmingly agree they are failing to get the service they count on when made to pay by their insurance coverage, new information reveals. The finest wager is for employers to arm themselves with data; that manner, they'll select health coverage that maximizes benefits for their enterprise. Has anybody had any similar well being points and was authorized and I'm wondering why it's only 60 days to listen to again. For instance, many firms provide voluntary, confidential counseling providers via an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). Gives details about how China is working with Africa and other developing nations to enhance well being and science.
In one other part under, I even have mentioned the meals you should avoid at all costs, however I haven't really hit on the foods that are wholesome selections or meals that you should eat (when you find yourself hungry), that will assist you to maintain some semblance of well being without putting your pancreas in an inflamed state or your life in danger any more than it already is.

The Private Student Loan Bankruptcy Fairness Act (H.R. 5043), originally introduced in the House on April 15 by Reps. Steve Cohen of Tennessee and Danny Davis of Illinois, was passed by a House subcommittee on Sept. 15. The proposed legislation would reverse a provision of a lender-friendly bankruptcy reform bill that, in 2005, created special protections for lenders of private student loans, making private student loans almost impossible to discharge in bankruptcy, unlike most every other form of private consumer debt.

For those who have read some of my previous pieces with Insomniac.com, it should be apparent that I am a rave veteran and that I tend toward the underground in my musical tastes. For those who haven't read me yet, hello. My name is Layla Marino. I am an independent contributor for Insomniac.com and a recovering jaded raver.
This year at Countdown 2016/2017, the editorial staff gave me a challenge I never imagined I would have to face, due to my rampant and unapologetic (though slowly changing) underground status: cover the modern scene and give observations in a clear, concise and generally neutral manner. It was with some trepidation that I took on this task, as my last venture into festival territory was in 2001 at Nocturnal Wonderland. Now, 15 years later in the face of this assignment, I had a lot of questions. What's changed? Would I be able to handle it? Are these huge blowout parties really worth it? What's the draw? This article was my idea. Half curiosity, half self-flagellation, I pondered these questions and realized they were all part of a much larger one: Is the spirit of the community the same as it once was?
By the time I went to my last festival, the sixth Nocturnal Wonderland in 2001, raves had already grown to what was, in my eyes, an intolerable grandiosity. In 1996 in the US, the drum & bass, hardcore and underground hip-hop scenes were making a discernable break from the larger rave scene, and that rift exists to this day. If you can't tell by now, I went underground. Since drum & bass was really my heart's music and I'm generally not a fan of crowds, the small club atmosphere and nothing but 170-BPM breakbeat was where I've made my home these 15 years. Now, with the advent of dubstep and trap, as well as huge, elaborate and well-organized festivals with killer lineups such as Countdown, it seems the scene is jelling once again—and quite nicely, from all reports. So, it was with no small amount of curiosity—and a perspective more like that of a first-timer than a seasoned grump—that I headed into the dance once again to see what's changed and, more importantly, what has stayed the same.
What is this weird, magical land I'm stepping into?
This is literally what I thought to myself when I stepped onto the grounds of the NOS Events Center on the first day of Countdown. Artwork has always been a big part of raves, and it used to get pretty elaborate, but the scale here far exceeded anything I could have imagined. Aside from the elaborately constructed stages and visuals, there was a whole world of awe-inspiring visual art stations, a huge installation sculpture in the "lake," and trees everywhere lit up with artistically done lanterns. The outside of the stage tents even had visuals reflected on them. I wouldn't say my gob was smacked per se, but it was very impressive.

1973 Datsun Pickup Truck - L16 4 cylinder engine w/manual transmission. This is a clean truck for the year. It has recently had quite a bit of work done to it including a cylinder head gasket w/checkup for cracks or issues, brake system rebuild minus the lines (still drums) and not power, carburetor rebuild and other general maintenance. The truck runs, drives and stops as good as can be expected for this year truck. The tires are near new and the glass is in fairly good shape except a rock chip or two in the front window. Weather striping in the trucks front and rear windows is good but the doors and side windows will need replaced. I hand buffed the truck minus the inside of the bed as you can see and the paint turned out pretty good. I was not able to find anything other than general rust and a couple small bubbles that do not look as if they are through but I wasn't going to dig them out.

Having never before travelled to Italy I wasn't sure what to expect from my recent trip to Venice. It was a family break to celebrate my Grandmother's very special birthday and her choice of destination. At the grand old age of…no she'd never forgive me, Venice had long been on her must-see list but, having been through a tough few years, she hadn't quite made it there.
And so it was that we booked our Venice city break en-masse with several other family members joining the party. My husband and I couldn't resist tagging on a few extra days beforehand just for ourselves – the idea of a romantic (and child-free) calm before the storm of intense family time was all too tempting.

Lentil Soup With Swiss Chard
READY IN: 4hrs 20mins
Recipe by PaulaG
I purchased swiss chard the other day and was looking for something to do with it. I stumbled upon a recipe which I promptly revamped. This has a little "kick" provided by the cayenne pepper. The kick can be enhanced by serving jalapeno pepper sauce on the side. Hope you enjoy!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup dried lentils, sorted and rinsed
- 1 bunch swiss chard leaf, rinsed and roughly torn, touch stems removed
- 1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 2 red potatoes, washed, cut in 1-inch cubes
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 2 medium carrots, scrubbed, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, pressed
- 5 -6 cups chicken broth or 5 -6 cups vegetable broth
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablelspoon chopped fresh marjoram
- 1⁄4 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon white pepper
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions See How It's Made
- Place all ingredients in a 5 to 6 quart crockpot, stir, and cook for 4 hours on high or 6 to 8 hours on low.
- Lentils and other vegetables should be cooked but not overly soft.
- Remove bay leaves, stir and serve with fresh baked cornbread and jalapeno pepper sauce on the side.

Accidentally liking your ex's photo on instagram? Will you treat it as a big deal? This morning, I just suddenly liked the photo of a girl that broke my heart. Maybe now she thinks that I still want her. I didn't unliked it. It will get awkward though.
Is it a big deal?
Have an opinion?
What Girls Said 3
You liked the 'photo', but that doesn't mean you still want her. Just act like nothing happened (I know it's hard to, because I did the same thing a few years ago and tried to act nonchalantly but every time he's around I can't think about anything but the photo that I accidentally liked. But.. we have to) But if anyone brings up that subject just quirk an eyebrow and say, 'Oh, that? It was an accident. Why do you ask?' Be sure to sound convincing though. :)00|00|0
It's a little weird you're still connected to your ex on social media.
But it can give her the wrong idea.11|00|0
makes sense
Eh just unlike it. But I accidentally followed my "ex boyfriends" girlfriend on Instagram.00|00|0
What Guys Said 2
You are overthinking this way too hard00|00|0
No big deal dude you have a life... one like won't change this.
You yourself are making this sound like a big deal!
Though she broke your heart, why should you care what she thinks?
Live in the present bro00|00|0
Yeah dude, It seems like I made it as a big deal. But as you say, live on the present. I just still care even though I'm pretending I'm not.
You should probably move on... You won't get anything by recalling the past
I know its easier said than done! But I hope u are strong for that.

Barrels out of alignment.
Not sure if this model is available in USA as it is manufactured by Browning in Belgium.
A friend of mine recently purchased a Winchester Select Midnight that he believed was good value at $1400.
He had problems with this gun and it did not shoot as well as he expected. So he asked me to try it, I shot well with the top barrel but with the bottom barrel I performed below my average. This was disconcerting, but I put it down to me not being used to this type of O/U gun?
It was only later, that I decided to try a Laser Bore sighter and to my dismay I found that the bottom barrel was badly out of alignment, it was firing high and to the left of target, no wonder I scored poorly with it! At least I now know that it was the gun at fault and not my shooting ability.
Another guy at our club had the same Winchester Select Midnight model , so I went to check his shotgun and his lower barrel was also out of alignment, but not by as much as my friends gun. We went back to the shop where he purchased this shotgun, and checked another Winchester Select Midnight that was in the racks and this also had the bottom barrel out of alignment. Other Winchester Select Field and Select Sporting shotguns in the rack had barrels that did align reasonably correctly. So I have to conclude that these shotguns had unfortunately been faulty from the manufacturing stage and so were really unfit for purpose. Both guns were returned to Browning in Belgium and they agreed the defect in manufacturing and a full credit note against the purchase of a new gun was given.
Ever since this experience I have checked quite a few shotguns both O/U and S/S. About 20% were out of alignment and some of them were $5000 guns, anyone else experienced this.
yes its a common problem with low end doubles of both types. thats one of reasons why a really good double isnt cheap. an in bore laser is a really good tool when buying a double.
doesnt mean you cant get a good lower end it just means you gotta be more diligent on the purchase.
I have to take exception. An acquaintance bought a nice Spanish SxS and was all pissed off because a laser showed the barrels to be way out. When we shot it, she was just fine. Out of curiosity, tried it in my Browning BSS 20 Sporter, and it indicated a bad barrel regulation problem, but I know this gun shoots almost 100% on at 40 yards thru both barrels with multiple loads. So, I think the proof is in the patterning. I would definitely not rely totally on a laser where a two barrel shotgun is concerned.
It is my understanding that it is, or used to be, generally accepted that the industry standard for shotgun manufactures is to have the shot-patterns from both barrels centring at 35 yards. Any double-barrelled shotgun that patterns differently and does not achieve this goal fails this standard! And personally I would not purchase such a gun because in my view it is defective.
Surely all of us that shoot at a target expect the gun to place the shot-pattern from both barrels where we expect it to be and not 18 inches left or right, above or below?
Previously to this recent experience Id always assumed that any reputable doubled barrelled shotgun would place the shot pattern of both barrels in exactly the same place at 35 yards, sadly from my experience it appears this is not born out in practice and the purchaser has to check for this out of alignment. I have now had time to check all the other 7 shotguns at our small shoot and just two of these have both barrels that are aligned and correct. One English made 16-bore S/S had one barrel firing 26 inches higher and 14 to the left at 35 yards. The owner commented that a left and right rarely happened.
Just to play devils advocate with a notional, fictitious advertisement of two shotguns in a Dealers rack:-
Shotgun 1 - £1500
Top barrel shoots to the point of aim at 35 yards.
Bottom barrel shoots anywhere, could be 20 inches to the left or right or 20 inches high or low at 35 yards. User must compensate as necessary!
Shotgun 2 - £1500
Top barrel and Bottom barrel shoot to the point of aim at 35 yards checked and tested at factory.
Which of these would I be tempted to try?
Anything up to 6" or 8" off center is usually considered acceptable by most, except in the case of a $55,000 and up Purdey, and then only with the loads it was regulated with. Of all the 2 barrel guns I have owned, I only had one that was bad enough for me to address the issue. Ralph Walker fixed it so it was only 3" off with the center of pattern at 40 yards. I believe there are still several gunsmiths who can do that work, but with a new gun I would be looking for the factory to fix it too.
I alway pattern any new-to-me gun so I at least know it's me that's causing the missing.

NASA PhoneSat: "Crowd-sourced science" via ham radio
EDN's Dylan McGrath reported the successful launch and mission of the first PhoneSats launched into space on his blog back in June.
See the video below regarding the first launch on the OSI Antares rocket and development of the first PhoneSats. In this video, you will see the NASA mentor, Jim Cockrell and a bright young man, Jasper Wolfe, who was a student in Australia, came to NASA and finished his degree and began to do this important work on getting PhoneSat ready for deployment.
Since I have just had the pleasure of a full day tour of the NASA Ames facility at Moffett Field in California, thanks to the Littelfuse Speed2Design contest with which you can still enter for a NASA trip, I can report to you two more upcoming flights from this innovative NASA PhoneSat team. I met Jim Cockrell, mentor and Jasper Wolfe, young engineer in their lab with some other young team member engineers----average age of 23 years!
Wolfe told us that NASA's next generation PhoneSat satellites to be launched on November 6 and December 6, will emit packets over the amateur radio band at 437.425 MHz. Satellites transmit using AFSK (1200 bps) modulation, AX.25 packet coding and have vertical linear polarization. As in the first launch, hence the term "Crowd-sourced science" coined by mentor Jim Cockrell.
The two PhoneSat 2 and 3 satellites will transmit with a periodicity of respectively 28 seconds and 30 seconds. The PhoneSat 2.0 beta satellite, Alexander, transmit with a periodicity of 25 seconds. One satellite will be up there for two years and the other for three months.
PhoneSat satellites are emitting packets on the amateur radio spectrum to report different types of messages. The details of these packets can be found on the packets page once the satellites are launched. If you are an amateur radio operator and you can receive these packets, you have the great opportunity to contribute to the project by submitting them. The dashboard page will give you all the information you need to track the satellites in real time.
The images were stitched together as part of NASA's PhoneSat project, which aimed to show how existing technology could be incorporated into powerful low-cost satellites. You can see the chart on top of the bench on which the team put the puzzle of individual photos of Earth together for a larger composite image below. The desk containing PhoneSats in various stages of completion along with a Velleman High-Q breadboard with Microhard Systems MK2420 2.4 GHz wireless modem in a motherboard configuration attached to the SmartPhone. See Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Figure 1: The PhoneSat display table has various parts of the design including the Velleman breadboard shown in the center front area of the desk in the Phone Sat lab.
Figure 2: The Velleman breadboard with Microhard Systems MK2420 modem motherboard and SmartPhone comprises the heart of the PhoneSat system
More details to come about PhoneSat in a more comprehensive article coming up on my EDN Analog Design Center.

For the second time in 48 hours, the LSU men's basketball team had to go to overtime Saturday night against Georgia.
Only this time it was two overtimes.
This time, the Tigers made it count.
LSU came from eight points down with 1:44 to play in the first overtime and went on to take an 87-84 double-overtime thriller over Georgia in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. The Tigers had been outscored 9-2 in overtime in a 74-67 loss at Missouri on Thursday night.
LSU (12-3, 1-1 Southeastern) appeared to be done in the first overtime when Georgia got a basket from Marcus Thornton and then hit 8 of 9 free throws to build a 79-71 lead after the Bulldogs led by nine with 2:20 remaining.
But LSU's Josh Gray made a three-point play to cut the deficit to five, and Tim Quarterman — a Savannah, Georgia, native who finished with a career-high 27 points — made a 3-pointer with 37.7 seconds left.
Quarterman, whose previous career high was 21 points at West Virginia on Dec. 4, completed an old-fashioned three-point play with 18.3 seconds left to tie it at 80 after Georgia (9-5, 0-2) managed to make just one free throw down the stretch.
Then, in the second overtime, Quarterman made a layup to give his team an 86-82 lead with 2:11 to play. Jalyn Patterson, who made three free throws in the second overtime, dropped in one of two to give the Tigers an 87-84 advantage with 26.2 seconds remaining and went on to secure the win.
Patterson, who also had a career high with 15 points, made a pair of free throws with 4:04 to play to give LSU the lead for good at 83-82.
Quarterman was credited with a steal with 2 seconds left in the second overtime when Georgia's Charles Mann, a 6-foot-5 guard, tried to pump-fake him on a 3-point attempt on the left wing.
Quarterman held his ground and no foul was called as Mann tried to initiate contact. The ball fell to the floor, and the final seconds ticked off the clock to send a crowd of 9,217 home happy.
"He tried to pump-fake me. … I'm just glad I didn't jump," said Quarterman, who stands 6-6. "I stayed down and just put my hands up. He leaned in and didn't get the call.
"I've had a lot of great moments in basketball," he added, "but this was a special moment for me. I had a lot of my family in for the game."
"I don't have a whistle, and I'm not going to think that this game had anything to do with officiating," Georgia coach Mark Fox said. "We made too many mistakes. We just made some really silly plays to cost us the game. I'd have to watch the last play on tape."
Quarterman was 10-of-16 from the field and knocked down 6 of 10 shots from beyond the arc as the Tigers finished 11-of-29 for the game from 3-point range. He added five rebounds, five assists, three steals and three blocked shots to offset five turnovers.
Jordan Mickey added 17 points and eight rebounds for LSU, and Gray had 15 points and six assists.
Quarterman had nine of LSU's 13 points in the first overtime. LSU needed his production with forward Jarell Martin, the SEC's leading scorer at 18.2 points per game, fouling out with 2:20 to play in the first overtime.
After Martin's fifth foul sent him to the bench, Georgia's J.J. Frazier hit a pair of free throws for a 77-68 lead. But LSU showed its resiliency and continued to battle in an important game — especially considering they let one get away at Missouri.
"I think we were down nine in the (first) overtime," LSU coach Johnny Jones said. "With a little more than two minutes to go, we continued to fight and battle. … We made plays. What I told them was we had to play hard and play extremely well."
Quarterman also had something to say to his team in the huddle after a critical call and review of an out-of-bounds play. The call was reversed and the ball given to Georgia, which was holding a 77-71 lead with 1:58 left.
"We just never gave up in the first overtime," Quarterman said. "Never in the game did we think we were not going to win. I'm that type of player, and I'm going to play as hard as I can. I had to get my team pumped up."

If there is power where the wire comes off the breaker, and it's white wire is solidly connected to the silver common bar, but now power shows at the leads connected to the outlet, then there must be a wire break somewhere in the wall. To find the break you need a tone tracer. They cost from $49 to $500, depending on how fancy you want them. I have used one of these since the early 80's: http://www.pimall.com/nais/e.tone.html
You clip the tone to a wire and ground, then follow the hidden cable with the wand. If you veer off, the volume of the sound from the wand speaker drops. When the sound stops completely, you have found the break in the wire. Make sure you turn all potentially related breakers off before cutting the cable at the break, otherwise you will ruin a good pair of pliers.
Please keep in mind that you can not patch or re-connect a broken wire in the wall. That has to be done in a junction box or outlet box. Since you probably won't have any spare wire that you can pull towards the break, plan on using a two-gang or three-gang box and box cover, or dual or triple outlets. That gives you enough room to connect a short piece of wire on each side of the break.

Thanks for the input. It turned out that a GFI outlet (in another bathroom) just needed to be reset. I didn't realize that these were connected to each other. Live and learn.
Cheers! (11/29/2005)
Yes, GFIs are weird. We bought a house, built in 1996. When a circuit on our main floor blew, we had to go to an UPSTAIRS GFI to reset it. That one took us a while to figure out the first time. :)

Two outlets in my garage stopped working at the same time. The GFI in the upstairs bathroom had to be reset. I would have never guessed that these outlets are all on the same circuit. (12/14/2006)
This was great. Two outlets outside stopped working for me. I found the reset downstairs beside the fuse box. Thanks for the help! (02/27/2009)
