Man Accuses Dog Of DUI

Last week, Florida police engaged in a high speed chase with 26 year old Reliford Cooper III – well, with who they thought was Reliford Cooper.

According to police, Reliford ran a stop sign, drove through two ditches and crashed his car into a house in an alleged drunken attempt to evade arrest. Reliford says otherwise.

He says that he wasn’t drunk at all. He was a helpless victim in the entire ordeal because… his dog was driving the car.

Reliford must have known how the events would look to the police and he, and his dog (we assume), took off on foot. Police tracked him down though, which is where he put the blame squarely on his pooch. Unfortunately for Reliford, his dog was nowhere to be found.

This means one of three things:

1. The dog was driving and fled the scene knowing the police wouldn’t believe his human’s absurd claims.
2. The man was driving and the dog was the innocent passenger, but ran away.
3. Reliford totally made the whole thing up and was driving under the influence.

The latter is what police believe happened. One Deputy noted that Reliford had “the strong odor of an alcoholic beverage, as well as an odor of burnt marijuana.”

In fact, no dog has yet to be identified as a PAW son of Interest and there have been no new developments in this case.

We’re glad that no one was hurt in this incident and we hope it serves as a reminder to everyone that we should never drink and drive, whether we’re dogs or not.

NEW JERSEY MESOTHELIOMA ATTORNEYS WIN $7.5M ASBESTOS VERDICT

NEW JERSEY MESOTHELIOMA ATTORNEYS FROM THE NATIONALLY-ACCLAIMED ASBESTOS LAW FIRM LEVY KONIGSBERG LLP OBTAIN A $7.5M VERDICT, INCLUDING A $1M AWARD OF PUNITIVE DAMAGES, FOR A VICTIM OF MESOTHELIOMA AND HIS WIFE.

NEW BRUNSWICK, New Jersey, January 15, 2015 – William and Debbie Condon of Lake Hopatcong, NJ – represented by mesothelioma attorneys Moshe Maimon and Joseph J. Mandia of Levy Konigsberg LLP – won a month-long trial against Pecora Corporation1. The jury verdict awarded $6.5M in compensatory damages for Mr. Condon’s asbestos-caused mesothelioma. The jury also determined that Pecora had acted in wanton and willful disregard of his rights – and further awarded $1M in punitive damages.

Known to his co-workers as “Billy Boiler,” Mr. Condon, who is currently 67 years old, installed heating and air conditioning systems, including boilers, for 11 years (1973-1984) while he was employed at Fritze Heating and Cooling of Whippany, New Jersey. Asbestos, including Pecora’s Asbestos Furnace Cement, came with the boilers he installed, and it was Mr. Condon’s exposure to these products that resulted in him developing mesothelioma, a terminal cancer, in June of 2013. Mr. Condon testified in Court that, prior to being diagnosed with mesothelioma, he had a “great life,” which includes his “wonderful wife” (they have been together for 50 years), and two children.

The evidence presented at trial showed that before Mr. Condon ever worked with its Asbestos Furnace Cement, Pecora was warned about the hazards of asbestos by its own asbestos suppliers. Yet, Pecora took no action to eliminate the hazards of asbestos from its product or to warn Mr. Condon (or others) about those hazards so that he could protect himself. Finally, the evidence showed that, during the time period in which Mr. Condon was working with Pecora’s Asbestos Furnace Cement, Pecora’s own president was diagnosed with mesothelioma and filed his own lawsuit seeking justice for his asbestos-related cancer. Despite this, Pecora did not stop making asbestos-containing products and removed asbestos from its products only 5 years later when its insurers would no longer cover asbestos-related risk.

After considering the evidence, the jury awarded $1M in punitive damages against Pecora. The Honorable Ana C. Viscomi – Superior Court Judge – presided over the trial. Punitive damages are designed to punish a wrongdoer for particularly egregious conduct and to deter that party from future misconduct.

Levy Konigsberg LLP is a nationally recognized asbestos litigation firm specializing in the representation of mesothelioma and lung cancer victims for close to 30 years.

Superfoods for a Healthy Prostate

The prostate gland has a reputation as a health destroyer.  Hypertrophy of the prostate gland, which affects nearly every elderly male, strangles the urethra.  This troublesome condition makes urination difficult and increases the risk of bladder infections and kidney damage. However, there are many superfoods that may already be a part of your everyday diet that can help thwart the onset of prostate problems. 

Tomatoes, watermelons, red grapefruit, papaya and red berries are all great sources of lycopene, a health-promoting plant pigment known for its cancer-battling ability.  It also promotes a strong immune system and helps support prostate health in men.  Though fresh are always an excellent option, the lycopene in cooked tomatoes is actually absorbed more readily by the body.  It’s also your ally in the battle against heart disease. 

Quercetin, a flavonoid that forms the backbone of many other flavonoids, may have positive effects in combating or helping to prevent many different types of cancer, including prostate. It also acts as an antihistamine and has anti-inflammatory properties, which may be helpful in relieving the pain of an inflamed prostate.

Foods rich in quercetin include apples, black & green tea, onions, raspberries, red wine, red grapes, citrus fruits, broccoli & other leafy green vegetables, and cherries. Quercetin can also be found in honey and sap, including the type from eucalyptus and tea tree flowers.

It’s important to remember to get a healthy balance of foods to keep your prostate healthy, including antioxidants, vitamin E from nuts and seeds, and drink plenty of clear fluids to help flush the bladder.  Try to avoid caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods.  Keeping your weight in check will also help maintain a healthy prostate.  

4 Crucial Things You Need To Do To Build your List

4 Crucial Things You Need To Do To Build your List


Online marketing may have developed a sudden surge these past few years, but many in the know how have felt its rise even from way then. As more internet based businesses are put up, the need to develop new marketing skills and knowledge based on this new medium have arisen. More and more marketing strategies are being discovered and developed to cope with the changing face of business the business world.

The demand for online marketing tips and strategies have drastically grown and a new form of business has been born, internet marketing strategies. While there are companies that are all too eager to help your site and business build a clientele for a fee, there also many ways that can spread the word about your sites subsistence in a more cost free way. One of this is Opt-in email marketing, also known as permission marketing.

Opt-in marketing requires the permission of a willing customer to subscribe to your marketing materials, materials that take form in newsletters, catalogs and promotional mailings via e-mail. The more opt-in marketing mail is sent, the more chances there is to bag sales and more sales. To do this, you must build a list of all those who wants to subscribe to your opt-in marketing list.

From your list, you will get your targeted customer, this is a good list since they already have shown interest in what you have to show and sell since they have willingly signed in for your list. These are the people who have liked what they have seen in your site and have decided they want to see more and maybe even purchase what ever product or service your company and site has to offer.

Many people would think that building their lists would take hard work and a lot of time to build and collect names and addresses. This is not so, it takes a bit of patience and some strategies but in doing this list, you open your site and your business to a whole new world of target market. Take the effort to take your business to a new level, if traffic increase and good profits are what you want, an opt-in list will do wonders for your business venture.

There are many sources and articles in the internet available for everyone to read and follow in building a list. Sometimes they may be confusing because there are so many and there different ways. Different groups of people would have different approaches in building an opt-in list, but no matter how diverse many methods are, there are always some crucial things to do to build your list. Here are four of them.

1) Put up a good web form in your site that immediately follows the end of your content. While some may say this is too soon to subscribe for a website visitors application, try to remember that your homepage should provide a quick good impression. If somehow a website visitor finds something that he or she doesn’t like and turns them off, they may just forget about signing up.

A good web form for subscribing to an opt-in list is not hard to do. Just write a simple short statement about how they would like to see more and get updated about the site. Then there should be an area where they could put in their names and e-mail address. This web form will automatically save and send you the data’s inputted. As more people sign in, your list will be growing.

2) As mentioned in the first tip, make your homepage very, very impressive. You need to have well written articles and descriptions of your site. Depending on what your site is all about, you need to capture your website visitor’s fancy. Make your site useful and very easy to use. Do not expect everyone to be tech savvy. Invest in having good programming in your site, make your graphics beautiful but don’t over do it.

Don’t waste your time making the homepage too overly large megabyte wise. Not all people have dedicated T1 connections, the faster your site gets loaded, the better. Go for a look that borders between simplicity and sophisticated knowledge.

3) Provide good service and products. A return customer is more likely to bring in more business. Even then and now, a satisfied customer will recommend a business always. Word of mouth and recommendations alone can rake in more business than an expensive ad. As your clientele roster grows so shall your list. With more members on the list, the more people will get to know about what you have new to offer.

4) Keep a clean and private list. Never lose the trust your customers have entrusted you. If you provide e-mails to others and they get spammed, many will probably unsubscribe to you. Remember, a good reputation will drive in more traffic and subscribers as well as strengthen the loyalty of your customers.

Prescription Insurance Policies

Some health insurance policies do not provide for
prescription coverage and a separate policy must be
purchased for prescription medications.

This is an area where it pays to do some homework and
research and find the best policy for you.

Prescription coverage insurance is not a necessity;
like health insurance coverage, it is a calculated
risk, although the risk is not as high.

Usually you can buy prescription insurance at any
time, so if the doctor determines that you need an
expensive maintenance drug, you may opt in at that
time.

It is important to know that if you presently have
prescription insurance you can usually only change it
at a specific time of the year, although you can add
new prescriptions, you can’t change plans.

The person who seldom takes prescription medications
probably does not need prescription insurance;
however, a person who takes maintenance drugs for high
blood pressure, diabetes, depression, heart disease or
immune disorders most likely needs insurance against
the high costs of drugs.

Prescription insurance policies usually have "tiers",
which usually means that a generic drug is at a low or
no co-pay, a tier 2 level may be the brand name
genuine, and a tier 3 may be a brand new expensive
drug that the co-pay could be a set high-percentage of
the cost.

In choosing prescription insurance, you should first
list the prescriptions that you take and the retail
amount of them. If you chose not to purchase
insurance, this would be your monthly cost.

Find out from the provider what the monthly premium
for you would be, then what the prescription co-pay
amount would be and add these two figures together.
Which is the less expensive alternative?mesothelioma

Culinary Traditions Of France

- - France


Summary:
French cuisine is the amazingly high standard to which all other native cuisines must live up to. The country of France is home of some of the finest cuisine in the world, and it is created by some of the finest master chefs in the world. The French people take excessive pride in cooking and knowing how to prepare a good meal. Cooking is an essential part of their culture, and it adds to one's usefulness if they are capable of preparing a good meal.



French cuisine is the amazingly high standard to which all other native cuisines must live up to. The country of France is home of some of the finest cuisine in the world, and it is created by some of the finest master chefs in the world. The French people take excessive pride in cooking and knowing how to prepare a good meal. Cooking is an essential part of their culture, and it adds to one's usefulness if they are capable of preparing a good meal.

Each of the four regions of France has a characteristic of its food all its own. French food in general requires the use of lots of different types of sauces and gravies, but recipes for cuisine that originated in the northwestern region of France tend to require the use a lot of apple ingredients, milk and cream, and they tend to be heavily buttered making for an extremely rich (and sometimes rather heavy) meal. Southeastern French cuisine is reminiscent of German food, heavy in lard and meat products such as pork sausage and sauerkraut.

On the other hand, southern French cuisine tends to be a lot more widely accepted; this is generally the type of French food that is served in traditional French restaurants. In the southeastern area of France, the cooking is a lot lighter in fat and substance. Cooks from the southeast of France tend to lean more toward the side of a light olive oil more than any other type of oil, and they rely heavily on herbs and tomatoes, as well as tomato-based products, in their culinary creations.

Cuisine Nouvelle is a more contemporary form of French cuisine that developed in the late 1970s, the offspring of traditional French cuisine. This is the most common type of French food, served in French restaurants. Cuisine Nouvelle can generally be characterized by shorter cooking times, smaller food portions, and more festive, decorative plate presentations. Many French restaurant cuisines can be classified as Cuisine Nouvelle, but the more traditional French restaurant cuisine would be classified as Cuisine du Terroir, a more general form of French cooking than Cuisine Nouvelle. Cuisine du Terroir is an attempt to return to the more indigenous forms of French cooking, especially with reference to regional differences between the north and south, or different areas such as the Loire Valley, Catalonia, and Rousillon. These are all areas famous for their specific specialty of French cuisine. As time has progressed, the difference between a white wine from the Loire Valley and a wine from another area has slowly diminished, and the Cuisine du Terroir approach to French cooking focuses on establishing special characteristics between regions such as this.

As part of their culture, the French incorporate wine into nearly every meal, whether it is simply as a refreshment or part of the recipe for the meal itself. Even today, it is a part of traditional French culture to have at least one glass of wine on a daily basis.

How To Lose Weight Fast

How To Lose Weight Fast

- lose weight-

If you're looking around for help with how to lose weight fast then really sticking to some of the basics is often the way forward for most people.  This is because pretty much opting for a fad diet might work in the short term, but once the weight has gone and you go back to your 'normal' eating patterns, the weight will surely come back.

With that said though, there are some really powerful ways to lose weight fast and keep it off.  To begin with if you are someone who is not eating a healthy diet then you should look closely at that and make some changes.

Fruits and vegetables have high water content and are great sources of natural fiber, so aim to eat at least five portions per day and this will kick start your weight loss.  This is also why substituting one of your meals per day with a healthy fruit and vegetable juice, that you have juiced and blended yourself, can be a great way to lose weight fast.

With that said, skipping meals without substituting them with a healthy and nutritional alternative is not the way to go to lose weight.  Instead make sure that you are eating at least three healthy meals a day as this will keep your metabolism working throughout the day.  Skipping a meal will slow down your metabolism and so the burning of fat will be reduced and your weight loss will also be reduced.  Above all treat breakfast as the most important meal of the day as this is your first chance of the day to get your metabolism working.

It's a fact that not everyone enjoys exercise, but if you're looking to lose weight, then exercise is a must.  The key here is to find a physical activity that you absolutely enjoy, that way when you don't feel like you can go on, then the fact that you enjoy the activity will keep you going.

If you're trying to lose weight fast for an upcoming event in your life: a wedding, a vacation or simply to fit into that gorgeous new dress, then keep that thought in your mind as a way to motivate yourself.  Nothing will help you in your quest better than visualizing yourself miserable if you fail.  On the back of that, see yourself succeeding and wearing that dress and how wonderful you will look and feel and you have a real and powerful tool to use in your favor.

Above all, aim for natural and safe weight loss and you will not only achieve, but you will maintain what you have achieved.
