BUFFALO, NY -- Barron Games International has entered into an exclusive partnership with Taiwan's Injoy Motion Corp. to distribute the Taiwanese factory's videogame simulators in the United States. Barron officials report that the deal includes the new Allied Tank Attack, along with earlier games in Injoy Motion's lineup.
PHOTO: Greg Bacorn (center) of Barron Games gets latest details on Allied Tank Attack from Injoy Motion Corp.'s Carl Hsieh and Cynthia Lai during GTI China Expo in September. Below, the ATA motion simulator is pictured in its two-seat cabinet format. ATA features vivid 3D animation that syncs with an advanced motion platform and recoil machine gun controller.
As the exclusive distributor of Injoy Motion's products in the U.S., Barron will also stock parts and oversee aftersales service for such popular videogames as Project X-Pher, Top Gunner, Street Racing Stars, Power Boat and Dido Kart.
"The quality and strength of the Allied Tank Attack game is outstanding," claims Barron's Anna Bacorn. "It is a driving motion simulator with an actual tank cabinet built around it, providing players with an enjoyable driving and shooting experience."
Allied Tank Attack is available in single- or double-cabinet configurations, both with linking capabilities. With a storyline set during World War II, the game features different modes of play, plots, battles and survival. Its double seat design accommodates a driver and a gunner, providing players the opportunity to experience the game in two different roles. The cabinet employs a 55" LCD screen, a force-feedback machine gun and a yoke controller for steering. The cabinet also uses Injoy's new Air Bag Motion technology, which is said to deliver highly sophisticated cabin movement.
Indicative of the new partnership, Barron president Gregory Bacorn provided input into gameplay and cabinet design. He also is the voice of the captain's command in the English version of the game.
"Barron Games is an aggressive company in building entertainment equipment," said Cynthia Lai of Injoy Motion, which is an affiliate of the Internet Motion Navigation Corp. "They have great insight into family fun and games kids want to play. During my work with Barron, I found they are very creative and passionate about realizing new ideas, which is very similar to Injoy Motion's mission: enjoy making a world of innovations."
While videogames represent a departure for Barron Games, which specializes in commercial air hockey products, neither company sees that as a barrier to success. "Barron is always expanding its product line to stay current with the needs of the amusement games market, and providing operators with new options," said Anna Bacorn. "This year we are going to wow customers with an expanded portfolio of amusements, starting with Injoy Motion's lineup."

INDIANAPOLIS -- If quarterback Matt Moore's days with the Miami Dolphins are over, Ryan Tannehill's backup is certain to draw interest in free agency.
Ben Volin of The Palm Beach Post reported Saturday that Moore could be in line for a two- or three-year contract worth roughly $5 million per season.
Moore -- in a perfect world -- wants to sign with a team facing a shaky quarterback situation, according to Volin. Moore also would like to get closer to his home in Southern California. Volin ruled out cold-weather teams such as the Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills but cited the New York Jets as a dark-horse candidate for Moore's services.
It's clear the Jets need help at quarterback, and Moore -- with a 13-12 career record as a starter -- comes equipped with knowledge of the AFC East.
The Minnesota Vikings reportedly are an option, but a league source told Volin the Arizona Cardinals remain an unlikely landing spot for Moore because new coach Bruce Arians might target Indianapolis Colts backup quarterback Drew Stanton.
One final possibility? The Dolphins.
General manager Jeff Ireland, offensive coordinator Mike Sherman and Tannehill have been on the phone with Moore in recent days urging him to re-sign with the Dolphins. It remains an option if Moore doesn't fall in love with another potential landing spot.

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) — Idaho businessman Frank VanderSloot is suing Mother Jones magazine because he contends that he was defamed by an article that depicted him as a "gay-basher."
VanderSloot, the CEO of direct marketing company Melaleuca, filed the lawsuit in Idaho Falls' 7th District court on Tuesday. He says a February 2012 article about him and two tweets promoting it prompted national criticism.
The magazine's co-editor-in-chief Monika Bauerlein says Mother Jones stands by its reporting and she hasn't yet received official notification of the lawsuit.
VanderSloot is seeking nearly $75,000 in damages. The lawsuit focuses on the article titled, "Pyramid-Like Company Ponies Up $1 million for Mitt Romney." The term "gay-bashing" never appears in the story, but VanderSloot points to a tweet promoting the article that described him as Romney's "gay-bashing buddy."
In the lawsuit, VanderSloot contends that the term "gay-bashing" denotes violence, harassment or intimidation based on sexual orientation.
"I've never taken shots like this before," VanderSloot said. "I think it's particularly egregious to accuse somebody of a hate crime ... In my opinion, that's what gay-bashing is. The accusation is that I have bashed gay people."
The Mother Jones article said that VanderSloot outed a gay reporter for the Post Register in 2005 when he purchased a full-page ad in the newspaper criticizing the reporter's extensive work covering child sexual abuse and cover-up scandals in the Boy Scouts.
VanderSloot has maintained that the reporter's sexual orientation was publicly known before the advertisement hit newsstands in conservative eastern Idaho.
VanderSloot has gained attention in the past for his approach to gay rights issues. In 1999, he bought space on 25 billboards to protest a documentary called "It's Elementary" that aired on Idaho Public Television. The documentary discussed how schools approached the subject of homosexuality, and on the billboards VanderSloot said it promoted "the homosexual lifestyle of your children." In 2008, VanderSloot's wife, Belinda, contributed $100,000 to an independent group supporting a successful California effort to ban gay marriage.
The multi-millionaire businessman caught the notice of the national media when he became the national campaign finance co-chair of the Romney campaign.
The lawsuit states that the Mother Jones article created a "national media firestorm," including attention from "The Rachel Maddow Show," Rolling Stone magazine and Salon.com. VanderSloot said those organizations parroted falsehoods from the Mother Jones article.
"In today's age, it becomes an impossibility (to hold media) accountable regardless of how wrong it is," he said. "I believe that who you need to hold accountable are the people who fabricated the story in the first place."
Bauerlein, the co-editor in chief of Mother Jones, said that shortly after the article appeared on the magazine's website, VanderSloot and Melaleuca brought forth concerns about accuracy. The article was pulled off the website for a short time, and 10 days later, Mother Jones printed three corrections.
In September 2012, Bauerlein said Mother Jones editors met face-to-face with VanderSloot, and there was one follow-up conversation, but then communication between the parties ended.
We feel very comfortable with our reporting," Bauerlein said. "Mother Jones has a long and solid track record of journalistic excellence."

This sewing machine (with attachments and instruction booklet), called the "Priscilla," was sold to Miss Kathryn D. Jameson of Friendship, Maine, in 1924, by the Priscilla Needlework Company of Boston, a mail-order house. The "Priscilla" was a private brand manufactured by the New Home Sewing Machine Company of Orange, Massachusetts. New Home manufactured both vibrating shuttle and rotary machines; many were "stenciled" or "badged" with brand names like "Priscilla," for retailers and mail-order houses. By the 1890's, the New Home Sewing Machine Company was the largest employer in Franklin County, Massachusetts, with an annual production of over 100,000 machines. After World War II (WWII), the introduction of cheaper Japanese machines into the U.S. market severely crippled American sewing machine manufacturers. Eventually, the company failed and "New Home" was absorbed by Janome, a Japanese corporation, in 1957.

Cherry Glaze RTA (ready to assemble) kitchen cabinets are ideal for DIYers and contractors looking to save time and money on their kitchen remodeling project. Our RTA kitchen cabinets are the same high quality as the assembled version, however they are delivered in a flat pack box, and require assembly prior to installation.
The assembly process is straightforward and takes approximately 10-20 minutes per cabinet. For help assembling our cabinets, watch the following instructional cabinet assembly videos: How To Assemble Wall Cabinets, How To Assemble Base Cabinets, and How To Assemble Drawers. You'll need a screwdriver for assembly and everything else is included in the box. The assembly process requires lining up the pre-mounted metal interlocking brackets on the cabinet panels and fastening them together. To provide additional stability to the joints, you can use wood glue.
Our ready to assemble cabinets in Cherry Glaze feature 1/2" plywood box construction and solid 3/4" Birch face frame that ensure durability. The Cherry Glaze door style features 3/4" plywood shelving which is durable enough to hold your kitchen accessories without the feat of warping over time. The hinges are concealed and six way adjustable with the option of upgrading to a soft closing mechanism. The matching Cherry Glaze finished interior and cabinet sides provide a custom cabinet look at a fraction of the cost. There is a 5 year manufacturer's warranty on our cabinetry that covers all defective parts including hinges, drawers, and drawer glides.
This cabinet style is assembled with just a screw-gun and optionally a staple gun/wood glue for additional support. The cabinet side panels will include pre-mounted metal locking plates, so assembling is as simple as sliding the locking plates over the corresponding L-bracket, and fastening with screws in the pre-drilled holes. This method of assembly is not only simple, but provides a very durable, strong cabinet.

Because this cabbage is thicker than regular Korean baechu, this type of kimchi is nice to have freshly made. It's also very simple to make - more than the regular Napa kimchi. However, this type of cabbage kimchi probably wouldn't be to use for other dishes that rely on traditional kimchi as an ingredient, like kimchi jjigae.

Enjoy life more knowing that you - or your loved one - can get immediate and appropriate treatment should something happen.
At Mediband, we work hard to help you stay safe and feel protected at all times. If you suffer from egg and nuts allergies, we have you covered. Our medical bands make it easy to alert others of your risks.
Your immune system is responsible for defending the body against bacteria and viruses. In some cases, your immune system will defend against substances that typically don't pose a threat to the human body. These substances are known as allergens, and when your body reacts to them, it causes an allergic reaction. You can inhale, eat, and touch allergens that cause a reaction. Doctors can also use allergens to diagnose allergies, and can even inject them into your body as a form of treatment.
The symptoms of an allergic reaction can vary from mild to severe. If you become exposed to an allergen for the first time, your symptoms may be mild. These symptoms may get worse if you repeatedly come into contact with the allergen.
Symptoms of a mild allergic reaction can include:
Severe allergic reactions can cause the following symptoms:
A severe and sudden allergic reaction can develop within seconds after exposure to an allergen. This type of reaction is known as anaphylaxis and results in life-threatening symptoms, including swelling of the airway, inability to breathe, and a sudden and severe drop in blood pressure. If you experience this type of allergic reaction, seek immediate emergency help. Without treatment, this condition can result in death within 15 minutes.
If you experience an allergic reaction and you don't know what's causing it, you may need to see your doctor to determine what the cause of your allergy. If you have a known allergy and experience symptoms, you may not need to seek medical care if your symptoms are mild. In most cases, over-the-counter antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl), can be effective for controlling mild allergic reactions.
If you or someone you know experiences a severe allergic reaction, you should seek emergency medical attention. Check to see if the person is breathing, call 911, and provide CPR if needed. People with known allergies often have emergency medications with them such as an epinephrine auto-injector (EpiPen). Epinephrine is a "rescue drug" because it opens the airways and raises blood pressure. The person may need your help to administer the medication. If the person is unconscious, you should:
This will help prevent shock.
These treatments are highly common and used by first responders. This is also why it's so vital to alert medical staff of your condition.
One of the best ways to achieve this is with a Mediband wristband. You'll let the staff know how to treat you and what not to do. This is vital if you can't talk when something happens.
Medical wristbands come in a variety of sizes. They won't irritate or chafe your skin. Therefore, you can feel free to wear them at all times. In fact, you may not even notice you're wearing it.
Next, each medical band is made from medical grade silicone. This material is built to last. And that means you won't have to worry about breaking it, losing it, and other problems.
Our bracelets clearly display "ALERT! Severe Food Allergies No Egg Or Nuts" in clear text. Medical staff will have no problem reading this text. And that will ensure you'll get the proper care in any emergency situation.
Mediband wants everyone to have the medical wristbands they need for their safety. This is why we work hard to keep our prices low.
We also provide volume discounts for bulk orders. This makes them great for doctor's offices, pharmacies, oncology departments, and more. Furthermore, our shipping options can get your wristbands to your door the next day.

Israel today faces one of the greatest threats to its existence. No, I'm not referring to Iran, nor the Palestinians, Egypt or Syria. The threat comes from within.
The Israeli Knesset has either approved or is considering a raft of legislation that would fundamentally change the democratic character of the state of Israel. It has already passed a law which would criminalize public support for the Boycott Divestment Sanctions (BDS) movement. Other bills would prohibit foreign funding of Israeli nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), declare Israel to be a Jewish state, remove Arabic as one of the country's national languages, dramatically increase penalties in libel suits and allow plaintiffs to recover without having to prove damages, make online publishers liable for comments published at their blogs or web sites, and force Internet service providers (ISPs) to reveal personal information about such commenters to the police.
The Israeli media and press freedom are under threat as never before. Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, after Channel 10 aired two highly critical exposés about the business practices of gambling tycoon Sheldon Adelson and the ethical improprieties of then-Member of the Knesset (MK) Netanyahu, threatened to withdraw the station's license unless it fired the reporter responsible for the latter program. In fact, Israeli media sources report that Netanyahu has already negotiated a deal and the station's fate is sealed.
Recently, the Israeli police detained the station manager of All for Peace Radio and threatened him with arrest if he didn't take the station off the air. It had tried unsuccessfully for years to obtain a license and Israeli authorities refused to grant one. Its ultimate offense was apparently that it broadcast programming to both Israel and the Palestinian territories that advocated tolerance and peaceful coexistence between the two peoples (including a two-state solution, which the current government claims to support). The station has been silenced.
Add to this a massive increase in violence against Israeli Jewish and Palestinian peace activists, including an organized assault at the Anatot settlement in which human rights activists were sexually assaulted, bones were broken and there was an attempted stabbing. Add arson attacks against mosques and death threats against leaders of the anti-occupation NGO Peace Now, and you have a perfect storm of Israeli authoritarian assault on the foundations of democracy.
There are a host of reasons why this assault is happening now. First is the sense of external threat foisted upon Israelis by their leaders. Israel has turned Iran into its primary existential threat and threatens war regularly in order to destroy that nation's nuclear program. The BDS movement, the international efforts to break the Gaza siege (the Gaza flotilla), the Palestinian statehood campaign before the United Nations (UN) – all have combined to impose a sense of communal threat upon Israel's citizens.
When threatened, it's only natural for a group to retreat into survival mode and embrace behavior it might reject in normal circumstances. Here in the United States, we saw this after 9/11, as the Bush-Cheney campaign against terror morphed into a systematic assault on civil liberties and constitutional rights. Something like that is playing out in Israel.
There is an additional factor at work: Israel has elected right-wing governments consistently over the past 35 years, with the exception of Shimon Peres and Ehud Barak, who ruled for a total of six years during the late 1990s. Now, with the essential disintegration of the Labor party and any force to its left, there is no liberal opposition (the second party, Kadima is center-right). This has allowed the Israeli nationalist right to dominate political discourse, frustrate any attempt to negotiate peace agreements, and pursue a hawkish foreign policy regarding Iran and other frontline states.
The legislative agenda I outlined is, I believe, part of an overall strategy aimed at creating a permanent right-wing majority which will replace Israel's democratic system with one that will be, at best, authoritarian – or perhaps worse. Amos Schocken, publisher of Haaretz, wrote a moving column recently in which he outlined the mechanisms of such a transformation:
According to the Gush Emunim [Israeli nationalist] ideology, Israel is for Jews. Not just the Palestinians of the Territories are irrelevant, but Palestinian citizens of Israel too are subject to the same oppression and denial of their citizenship. This is a strategy involving seizure of territory and apartheid.
This ideology sees in the creation of an Israeli apartheid regime something that is necessary to realizing its goals. It has no problem with using illegal, even criminal acts, because its sacred mission is seen as above the law and having no real relation to the laws of Israel. Rather, it depends on a perverted interpretation of Judaism.
It cannot permit opposition or criticism. It must eliminate the latter and frustrate any effort to restrain its actions … Any actions which are illegal must be made legal by rewriting the law or by reinterpreting existing law so that what was illegal is now redefined as legal. Similar things happened before in other times and places [a distinct reference to Nazi Germany].
The Netanyahu government is grasping an opportunity to radically remake the Israeli political system by removing safeguards for freedom of speech and the press and by weakening the power of civil society initiatives and NGOs to act as a check on violations.
No recent event exemplifies all of these qualities better than a series of settler-inspired price-tag attacks against Peace Now. Several individuals have stalked leaders of the group for years, phoning death and bomb threats to their homes and the group's offices. Death threat graffiti has been sprayed in the apartment building of one leader and vehicles were vandalized. Several years ago, a $300,000 reward was offered to anyone who killed Peace Now's director. The individual thought responsible for this act, Jack Teitel, was later arrested and accused of planting bombs which seriously injured two Israelis, an attack on a Tel Aviv gay community center that killed two and attack on a police vehicle that killed two officers.
In a result all too common in cases involving Jewish terrorism, Teitel was found mentally incompetent to stand trial and consigned to a mental hospital. This allows the Israeli justice system to declare that terrorists are aberrations who do not represent the state or its citizens at all.
The police arrested one suspect in the latter price-tag graffiti attacks (but believe at least one other remains at large) and claim he confessed to committing a series of the attacks. But when he appeared in court, the suspect's father menaced press photographers, demanding they delete the photos they'd taken. He threatened them: "Do you know who I am? I'll take you to jail!"
No one in Israel can publish either the identity of the suspect, his father or the reason for the latter's threat. But I will. He is a Shin Bet official, and publication of the names of intelligence agents is prohibited. In this particular case, a judge has shielded not just the father, but the son as well – though there is no law stating that the children of intelligence agents deserve the same treatment as their parents.
Police detained the 21-year-old suspect for two weeks and then released him to house arrest. As soon as he returned home, he began sending multiple-recipient email death threats to Peace Now employees and members in his own name, using his personal email address. An activist not affiliated with the group sent this to me: (Editor's note: brackets indicate missing Hebrew characters, which could not be translated onto the web page.)

Despite the fact that the recipients and their friends were prohibited from revealing this within Israel, they could tell me. With their help and a lot of other sleuthing by Israelis and Americans across the globe using social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, I've exposed a great deal about the criminal suspect.
His name is Dor Oved. He lives with his family in Mevasseret Zion (within the Green Line). His father, Shachar Oved, is a mid-level Shin Bet official and his mother, Aliza, is a police officer.
Until very recently, Dor Oved maintained a Facebook account which featured a profile image of him pointing a gun at the camera. He sports what resembles an Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) tattoo on his arm. Though there are a number of Dor Oveds in Israel, he is the only one whose Facebook account notes that he attended high school in Mevasseret Zion.
Though he deleted this account, he now has another Facebook account that doesn't feature his name (though it does contain his personal email address) and which sports a "Kahane was right" logo. [Meir Kahane was an Israeli-American extremist who called for Arab people to be expelled from Israel.] Oved is an ardent supporter of the settler movement and ultranationalism. Israeli TV also featured video surveillance tapes of Oved spray-painting anti-Arab graffiti in the Israeli Palestinian village of Shuafat.
There are a number of reasons I break such gag orders and violate Israeli secrecy rules. First, I believe they are deeply pernicious to good government and the public's right to know. They allow the elite to maintain their hold on the reins of power and sources of information and deprive citizens of the information they need to make informed judgments about who leads them and how they lead.
I broke another gag order earlier in the case of Anat Kamm, a young IDF soldier working in a general's office who leaked 2,000 top-secret documents to a Haaretz reporter documenting targeted killings against unarmed Palestinian militants in violation of Supreme Court rulings. Recently, Kamm was sentenced to four and a half years in prison for her trouble.
The reporter, Uri Blau, still faces the threat of prosecution. He has already lived under such a threat for several years. Anything he publishes is being examined with a fine-toothed comb by state prosecutors to determine whether he violates any further laws that could be used against him.
I only succeeded in breaking the gag order in this case because Judith Miller took an interest in it and publicized it in a post at the Daily Beast and, ironically, on FoxNews.
Such things should not happen in a country that understands and values a free press. While it is true that Bradley Manning faces similar prosecution, as does Julian Assange, who published his material, luckily we haven't prosecuted The New York Times or its reporters for publishing the documents. That is what Israel threatens to do.
In the current case of Oved, neither Miller nor any other mainstream journalist I contacted felt the story justified the attention of their publication and readers. I'm hoping that, just as an earlier story I wrote here about the kidnapping of Gaza civil engineer Dirar Abu Sisi by the Mossad led to a BBC documentary by Gabriel Gatehouse, perhaps this new report will lead to wider coverage of the outrageous affront committed by the Oved family in collusion with the Israeli justice system.

To the Editor:
It has not been six months since the hurricanes destroyed much of the educational system in and around Kiln, Miss. The students and staff at the Tomahawk School District have connected with the county school system that includes the students from Kiln. While a good deal of progress has been made, much remains to be completed. Because the storm destroyed much of the tax base, progress has been slowed.
Several of their elementary schools were destroyed. Classes are being conducted in trailers. Conditions continue to be difficult. Even small items such as the sack lunches must be trucked in for the students. While the middle school was not destroyed, a good deal of equipment used in their programs had to left behind, and it was destroyed. This was the fate of the band program. Nearly all of their equipment was destroyed by water. District priorities prevent a complete replacement of the band equipment.
The students of Tomahawk's band program have scheduled a performance on March 21 (at 8 p.m. in the district auditorium). At that performance, a free-will offering will be taken. All of the money collected will go toward helping restore the band program at the middle school. I encourage attendance at our concert.
Our students are also concerning themselves with the issue of prom. Without some outside help, there might not be a prom for the Kiln students. While this might seem like a strange concern, our students do not believe their counterparts should have to give up the "extras" because of these storms. Recently we all had the opportunity to witness the celebration of Mardi Gras in New Orleans, La. It was not as grand as past celebrations, but it lifted spirits and made a statement about the determination of the folks living in the storm-damaged area. This year's prom will not be the event the students experienced prior to the storms, but it will provide a welcome break for students who spend their days dealing with some extreme difficulties.
Perhaps there are members of the community who won't be able to attend our band program, but value the contribution music makes to the total education program. We would be happy to pass along any contributions given in support of our band's efforts. Perhaps there are community members who have fond memories of their prom experience and wish to contribute to that effort. Anyone who wishes to contribute to either of these projects may do so by sending that contribution to the Tomahawk High School office. We will gladly pass those funds along to the students in Kiln, Miss. We appreciate your support of our efforts.

About the Missouri School of Dentistry & Oral Health at ATSU
About MOSDOH : MOSDOH Mission & Purpose Statement : MOSDOH Philosophy Statement on Diversity : Leadership : Accreditation
ATSU's sixth school, the Missouri School of Dentistry & Oral Health (MOSDOH), was established in 2013 on the Missouri campus. MOSDOH was founded to address the disparities in oral healthcare in Missouri and across the nation. By graduating dentists who have an in-depth understanding of and a desire to serve populations in need, MOSDOH will help increase access to and services for vulnerable populations.
Offering a doctor of dental medicine, MOSDOH's dental program features an innovative curriculum, simulation technology, state-of-the-art facilities, service learning experiences, and leadership training. MOSDOH's curriculum is integrative by interweaving core disciplines into the humans systems, preclinical, and dental sciences with a strong emphasis on the application of clinical medicine and clinical dentistry. Students spend their first and second year studying basic sciences and basic principles of patient care in the classroom and complete dental simulation exercises in the Kirksville campus simulation clinic. During the third and fourth years, student's transition to the clinical environment by providing patient care at the St. Louis Dental Education and Oral Health Clinic (St. Louis Dental Center).
To provide the core dental clinical curriculum, ATSU-MOSDOH has partnered with Affinia Healthcare, formerly Grace Hill Health Centers, Inc., in St. Louis. The innovative partnership with Missouri's largest community health center allows MOSDOH to focus on the educational elements of comprehensive patient care, while Affinia Healthcare manages the clinical operation. At the St. Louis clinic, third-year students work under the direct supervision of licensed MOSDOH dental faculty. During the fourth-year students, spend half of the year in the St. Louis clinic, and the other half of the year in community health centers and other safety net clinics in St. Louis and throughout the Midwest, all under the supervision of MOSDOH adjunct faculty. Additionally, students who have not obtained either a certificate or master's degree in public health with a dental emphasis will earn a certificate in public health while enrolled at MOSDOH.

Krista Mershon needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 1011 designs submitted by 303 freelance designers.
Bontold Pet Hospital
Bontold Pet Hospital is a network of 40+ Veterinarian clinics who offer compassionate pet care. We focus on partnership, and ask a lot of questions to make sure we are helping our customers take care of their pet(s) in between vet visits. We offer innovative care solutions and work with our network of doctors to inform each other of these breakthroughs in technology and care.
Pet parents, 60% female, 40% male. This audience really cares about their pets, treating them like members of their family. Animals served are primarily dogs and cats. Designs should steer clear of other animals.
Right now we have a problem with people seeing us as a "pet hospital" who offers serious pet care and not just a clinic who just gives out maintenance shots. We really need to communicate that we offer a high level of pet care.
BUT, at the same time, we need to show that we're also compassionate, approachable and caring.
Directionally, here's some different areas to play in:
- Partnership, we're a network of doctors here to help you take care of your pet.
- We're a compassionate pet hospital, like a children's hospitals (serious medicine, but approachable.)
- What about owning the "B" in our name? Is there a way to treat that in a way that says "pet hospital"?
Many vets use silhouettes of animals in their logos. We'd like to avoid this if possible, as it's hard to stand out in this industry if we go there. But, we'd be open to using a pet shape if it's treated in a differentiating way. I'd just recommend this not being the first place to go visually.
Other considerations:
-We are open to recommended color palettes, we like something that feels welcoming, yet innovative.
-We tend to put the logo on EVERYTHING. So something that prints well on say a t-shirt is appreciated.
-We are most concerned with nailing the logo itself, the type treatment comes secondary.
Thank you so much for taking on this challenge. We greatly appreciate your participation. Thank you.

Angry? Me? Never....It's very naive to completely dismiss or discount the idea that maybe, just maybe, Disney was the major impetus in having a 6" line of Star Wars realized. Perhaps Hasbro had been considering it, pondering, thinking, but it makes sense that ultimately, Disney was the driving force that made it happen. Does it matter what company was involved? Uh, yeah. The decision marks what I believe to be a pivotal point, a bold move which speaks volumes about what is in store for the future. It's a taste of things to come, something fresh and new, which doesn't seem to have any telltale signs of a decision that would come from the big H.
Read the rest of what I wrote. I'm saying that if their estimates show not enough volume/profit coming from a collector focused 4" line, then their research or decision criteria is likely flawed. Clearly if there isn't enough profit coming in, a company needs to stop production OR revisit the way they're going to market.
lf I missed the answer I'm sorry, but will these figures come with a figure stand? 6" figures usually need them..

When SLAM! Wrestling reviewed Mid-South: Giants, Midgets, Heroes & Villains Volume 1 DVD, the only negative part of the review was the false advertising of a Ric Flair vs. Ted DiBiase for the NWA World title match. The match never took place and an angle where Dibiase was left with a crimson face was shown.
It was quite pleasing to see that Mid-South: Giants, Midgets, Heroes & Villains Volume 2 DVD started with the conclusion of that angle. In the first volume, Dick Murdoch attacked Dibiase before the match. Murdoch vs. Dibiase seemed eminent for later in the DVD. It never came. The first match on the second volume sees a bandaged and bloody Dibiase make his way to the ring to fight Flair. Maybe a Murdoch vs. Dibiase match will be saved for Volume 3.
This is another well done DVD by Mid-South. This is classic wrestling. Mid-South was the highest rated cable show for a short period (in the mid-1980s), and this DVD shows why. The angles, matches and personalities are what built this organization. Sadly, trying to build a promotion out of Oklahoma was never going to work and the company could not pay the same as Mid-Atlantic and WWE was at the time; the downturn in the oil economy didn't help. When stars left, the promotion struggled until ultimately being sold in 1987 to Jim Crockett Promotions.
A few surprises to look for in this volume include an appearance by Vince McMahon, referee Nick Patrick as a rookie wrestler and the infamous Ric Flair vs. Kerry Von Erich cage match from Christmas 1982.
Also, a young and green Shawn Michaels is involved in a tag match with Jake Roberts and Steve Williams. Although he was just a rookie, you can see even back then that Michaels showed signs that he was talented in the ring and looked like a ring veteran in the ring.
The DVD is filled with the matches people want to see. The only exceptions are the matches used to fill the "Giants" and "Midgets" title in the DVD. It is always easy to forward past the two straight Mike Jackson matches. Also, this is a Mid-South DVD, and filling 15 minutes with a World Class Championship Wrestling match (Flair vs. Von Erich) was not necessary. It was interesting to see, and if they wanted to put it on the DVD, it should be put on as an extra. The match is shown with commentary by Mid-South, but the match is only connected to Mid-South because of the NWA World title which Flair held at the time.
Nothing has been announced in terms of future releases. One thing that makes Mid-South special today is that they are really the last big U.S. promotion that have not sold or borrowed footage to the WWE. It is sad to see that there is either not enough demand for it or Mid-South just has not keeping up with production.
Full rundown of the DVD:

Sounds like you're really busy so don't worry about the blogging. We'll still be here.
I'll be in your place in 3 years sending my daughter and only child off to college. I hope you'll share how to do it and let go. I'm kind of nervous.

Aren't edits fun?
Tell your son to go to his graduations. It will be the only time he gets into Safeco Field for free.
And then - safe travels on Thursday!

My GF still cries about her son being in college. Men will never know how tough it is on a mother.
I'm glad your edits weren't too bad.

Aww...congrats on your new graduate!
This is my kiddo's last week of school too. No trips this summer--but lots of people visiting us. :)

Congrats to your son! And getting the proof from the publisher is pretty exciting. I'm sure you'll not find any errors.
My stepson is 17 too and he'll be off to college in September next year. He has special needs so it's a different kettle of fish, but it's hard for anyone. We're looking at colleges in England because there seems to be nowhere in Scotland that offers adequate provision - we never really anticipated him staying away from us, but he's really excited about it so that's the most important thing!

I don't blame your son for not wanting to attend his high school graduation. If I had my way, I would have skipped mine (10 years ago now). Best of luck with the edits; I'm sure the book would turn out great afterwards. :)

Wow -- you ARE a busy girl!
Congratulations to your son on his graduation, and I do get where he's coming from. In many ways he already 'graduated' when he first started taking college classes. But the ceremony is still a chance to celebrate it in front of the people who love him, and it's only a one-time thing. Go and enjoy the moment!
And best of luck to the soon-to-be empty-nesters! Once you get used to things like peace, quiet, food in your refrigerator, a lot less laundry, etc., it's actually kind of a fun time. It'll give you a chance to get reacquainted with your husband. ;^)
Good luck with the edits, enjoy your travels, and see you when you get back!

Graduation and all it entails are tough on parents. My daughter had her senior prom on Saturday. Today they're doing a 'senior walk' through the halls of school in caps and gowns, and tomorrow is her last day. She's doing okay, but I know one of her friends looks like she's in danger of coming apart at the seems. It's a wonderful time, but a hard one, too.
Your son may not like his school or his classmates much, but I think it's good for him to take part in the ceremony. At least for you! Enjoy it.

Released my children years ago, but it wasn't easy. The flip side of that is if you look down deep inside you wouldn't want to cage your son. He will be happier flying.
Can't wait to read The Mistaken. i love psycho thrillers.

Wow! There are so many neat things going on for you and your family right now ... congratulations to all of you. Hope that your trip goes off without a hitch and that you enjoy yourselves very, very much.
This summer for us? Well, we just bought a new 5th wheel and are planning on a bit of travel. Our big trip will be to Texas to watch our grandson play football at TCU (he is a freshman QB, so we hope that he will be getting some field time this year) but the trip should be a blast no matter what.

Congrats on finishing your edits, whoot! And congrats to your son on graduating--do make him go, he'll treasure it later. (Maybe much later, but he will). With my two boys being so little still, I can only imagine what you're going through by way of letting go, but be brave!
D'you know, I'm always slightly amused by us bloggers excusing our absences pretty much like we would at a formal workplace. Off you go and enjoy yourself, and rest assured we'll all still be here and love you when you come back.
As for me, I'll be going to ground next week myself as it's the big family move and I won't have an Internet connection for about a week. I don't own any smartphones or tablets, so that's it for me: total radio silence. (And yes you guessed it... I will post on my blog excusing my absence, haw haw haw).
Take care and see you soon, honey! Whoooooop!

I didn't want to attend my graduation either, but on my mom's advice I did. Tell him congrats!
My grandfather taught at ASU for many many years. It's a great place. Good luck on the transition.

i have been through that with my oldest son--he went away for college--but it wasn't so far, that he couldn't come home a lot--my youngest is looking into colleges now--she is a senior next year---good luck to you and your son!
- June 11, 2012 at 10:33 AM
Wow, congrats to your son!! What an accomplishment--going to community college while still in h.s.:) Good for him! I'm virtually holding your hand, Nancy . . . have tears in my eyes for you. My oldest turns 12 this month and the past two years I had a huge cryfest over the fact that time is going way tooooooooo fast for me:( ~hugs

Hello, Nancy. New follower here. We've only just met, but I'll hold your hand. My 17 year old graduated last Thursday. He's staying local for now (Fresno State in Fresno, Ca. area), but thinks he'll transfer in two years. Our 14 year old graduated from junior high the week before, so we've been busy, too.
Best of luck for both of you on the transition.

This is all good news. My oldest will graduate next year. It's insane. I'm certainly not old enough for that. But graduation at Safeco field must be cool.

Congrats to you & the kiddo. He's a smart one; you guys did an amazing job!
I can't believe that in 2 years my oldest will be graduating. It's weird. Especially since I don't feel my age lol ;-)

Yay for your son! I can't believe you're going to have an empty nest. I can't even imagine. But at the same time it is so exciting!

Busy is good! Very good. Don't worry about visiting others. Family always comes first.
I didn't want to go to my graduation either. I hated that place.
I think it's interesting that your son is leaving for college and mine is going into 2nd grade and I think I might be older than you. Ugh. I started way too late. I'm going to be ancient by the time my kid graduates high school!
Best of luck with your travels. I'll be thinking of you and holding your hand!

My oldest son is just about to finish grade ten, and I tell you, the idea of him graduating terrifies me. I am not even close to ready to let go. I know it's coming, though.
I have been to Pheonix a few times now, and it's a really great city. I'm sure he will be very happy there. :)
- June 13, 2012 at 8:06 PM
You sound very busy... and oh edits... I'm in edit land too... not much fun at all.

Ha! Got your message on my blog. I'm only about a half dozen years behind you. I'll be OVER the half century by quite a few when my bundle of pain in the ass graduates high school.

This is a very exciting time for you, Nancy. I remember it clearly as if it happened yesterday. Now, I'm watching their lives pass from the sidelines, it seems. That's not entirely true. It's just a different phrase. Hope yours goes off without a hitch. Thinking of you, and sending best wishes for a whole new adventure.

Brief back story I played the game about 9 months ago all the way from beginner through black hole. Now I come back and checking as thinking something changed. Am I just losing it or has the crew always been a bunch of dumbass workaholics?
Why if I give the crew an order do they have independent thought process and try to head back to their station? Seems to be a crossroads as Sims do not inherently follow directions. Is this supposed to be a star trek-esque romp through the cosmos or Sim ant(like what I did there)? I don't know that it's taking the lazy way out to hunker down in a portion of the ship when it's entirely boarding defense battles (Mars for example). Option to turn off?
independent movement added recently?
If only we could hear you scream in space.

Re: independent movement added recently?
This was a new option with a poorly chosen default "enabled" state. It's feature was meant to auto manage your crew when they become idle to go back to their assignment. There should be a setting in the options menu that you can turn off "Auto Return when Idle".

While looking at the top 10 download of Ubuntu app center for the month of April 2013 I've discovered a new software available for Ubuntu : YouTube to MP3.
It's not a secret that on youtube there are a lof of music videos and also some full albums, and so with this software you can download them as mp3 file and listen them in a second moment or on a mp3 player.
YouTube to MP3 allows you to download and convert multiple videos into audio files, to do this you have simply to enter the URL of the video on youtube by clicking the Paste button or dragging in the window.
If you use Ubuntu you can install this software directly from the Ubuntu app center, If you are using Ubuntu 12.04 and have problem with YouTube to MP3 Converter type the following command in the Terminal:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libmp3lame0 libavcodec-extra-53
Or as alternative you can download the package from the official website , but as first thing install the pre-requisites with the following command:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53
And after that install the package with the command
sudo dpkg -i YouTubeToMP3.amd64.deb
While installing it on my Mint Nadia (based on Ubuntu 12.10) I got a small problem:
mint-desktop tmp # sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these: The following packages have unmet dependencies: ffmpeg : Depends: libav-tools but it is not going to be installed Depends: libavdevice53 (>= 6:0.8.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed or libavdevice-extra-53 (>= 6:0.8.6) but it is not going to be installed Depends: libavfilter2 (>= 6:0.8.3-1~) but it is not going to be installed or libavfilter-extra-2 (>= 6:0.8.6) but it is not going to be installed libavcodec-extra-53 : Depends: libavutil-extra-51 (>= 6:0.8.6ubuntu0.12.10.1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: libopenjpeg2 but it is not going to be installed Conflicts: libavcodec53 but 6:0.8.6-0ubuntu0.12.10.1 is to be installed libavcodec53 : Conflicts: libavcodec-extra-53 but 6:0.8.6ubuntu0.12.10.1 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
But following the suggestion I solved the problem
mint-desktop tmp # sudo apt-get -f install
At the end of the process I had everything solved and the software installed correctly.
Basic Usage
Once installed you can start this program from the terminal with the command
YouTubeToMP3 or clicking on the Youtube to mp3 entry in the Menu, under Internet.
The first thing to do it's to take a look at the settings, to access them click on the "gear" icon located in the bottom of YouTubeToMP3 application windows, this will open the settings window that has multiple tabs, the most interesting are:
The Download tab:
In this Tab you can configure the number of parallel Downloads and the max bandwidth that the app can use, you can also setup a "speed limit mode", you can set a limit lower of the former that you can activate from the application clicking on the snail icon, located at the bottom of the window.
Another interesting Tab is the Music output tab:
From this tab you can select the output format you like between mp3,ogg and m4a , the destination for the downloaded files, the default is the directory ~/Music/Downloaded by MediaHuman and the bitrate or quality of the produced file.
All done, once that you have set up these options you are ready to download your favourite video on youtube as mp3 file, close the setting window and go in the main window, the easiest way to add files is to copy the url of the youtube video on your clipboard and click on "Paste Url" this will add a small image of the video with its name in the download list, once you have put in all the urls you'd like to download just click on arrow down icon and the app will start to download the selected videos and convert them in the format you have previously selected.
These are 3 mp3 with bitrate 128 that I've downloaded as example to test the software, and anyway I suggest this group if you like " American Celtic punk" genre.
#/Music/Downloaded by MediaHuman $ ls -alrt

Quite easy to install and with some interesting configuration options this software allow everyone to easily download and convert any video that is present on youtube.
The bad side of this software ?
At the moment the only problem that I've found in this App is that It's closed source, other than that it seem to work perfectly.

Tell you and easier method if you are using KDE.
Install pacpl – # aptitude install pacpl
In dolphin, right click on the flv (or any multimedia file) and select your conversion
Jdownloader. Gli dai l'URL e ti consente di scaricare -direttamente- il flv, l'mp3 e l'mp4 (uno dei tre o tutti) del video.
How about re-titling your article to indicate this is for Ubuntu and not GNU-Linux. I checked their website and the only linux distro it is available in is Ubuntu. First we had windows thinking PC meant a computer running windows software and now some of you equate running Linux to Ubuntu. Why not just label your writing correctly and not waste the time of those of us who use a different distro.
I agree with previous poster.
The title is misleading and incorrect and should be rewritten.
You can use a command line tool named youtube-dl
It downloads the YouTube video on your hard drive, with plenty of options available.
With option –extract-audio, you will have the audio file only.
Be aware that the audio format is the same as the one used in the video.
So, some times ago, it was MP3. Now, it is often aac.
Then, if you need absolutely mp3, you will have to re-encode the file with ffmpeg for instance.
converting a lossy codec to another one it's not the best idea….
why not just pull the vorbis audio from the webm container?
$ ./youtube-dl -A -t -c –extract-audio –audio-format vorbis
I developed an Android app that does basically the same, but, other than free, it's Open-Source (and absolutely ad-free; so I don't get a cent out of it. Just to clarify).
code available @:
latest .apk @
I know this is a blog about Linux, but, in the end, Android is a Linux-based operating system, isn't it? 😉
I wish I had this on my Debian, I installed it ,,but it's strange, can't start it :/
For those Windows users, the equivalent is XetoWare's Free YouTube Downloader. http://www.xetoware.com/free-youtube-downloader.html. It is truly awesome.
It downloads HD1080p videos and 320kbps MP3s.
Downloads videos with its built in download accelerator, achieving speeds of 3 to 5 times faster than your default web browser.
Also let's me trim the downloaded MP3s, so I can cut the nonsense dialogue out so I am only left with the actual song. Guys who download from YouTube to MP3 know what I mean!
Seriously, check it out!
Many of my friends use Allavsoft to download youtube video to mp3
Today, i just have a try and find it really works great. it support one step to batch download youtube or youtube playlist to mp3, wav, wma, aac, aiff etc.
