The new offering by LG continues in the same vein as the smash-hit "chocolate phone". Weighing just 90g and measuring only 95.5mm x 45mm x 9.9mm, the KG320 will slide into small pockets and not weigh you down if you like to wear your phone on a lanyard.
This candy-bar phone is dominated by the large, color LCD screen which boasts a display size of 176 x 220 pixels. The screen supports 262K colors, meaning images are clear and crisp. With large, rectangular keys, the phone will be easy to use even for those with large hands. Raised slightly from the phone itself, with channels between keys, the keypad is responsive to the touch and intuitive to operate. The navigation button, which sits below the screen, sits flush with the navigation pad itself and can be difficult to operate smoothly.
Turn the phone over to reveal the sliding lens cap of a 1.3 megapixel camera. Not only does the cover offer protection to the camera beneath, it also activates the camera function. The camera allows you to shoot both stills and video. Image quality is satisfactory for photos shot in daylight, but night pictures are of barely acceptable quality, even if the flash is on.
To store your images, the phone offers just 128MB of built-in memory, with no expansion options available. This is a serious disadvantage, especially since the LG KG320 also markets itself as an MP3 player. The audio player is compatible with most of the common file formats, including MP3, AAC, AAC+, M4A and WMA. Music-lovers will be pleased to know that the phone comes with an audio jack, meaning that you can use your high-quality headphones to listen to music stored on your phone.
The list of bundled extras for the KG320 is fairly expansive. There are two rechargeable 600mAh lithium ion batteries, a standard AC charger and a charging box for independent battery charging. You can house your charging equipment in the included travel carry case. Perhaps the manufacturers included these items in anticipation of the need to regularly recharge – battery life is a little below par. You can expect just three hours of talk time, with 200 hours of standby time. Also included is a detachable carry strap, USB cable, earphone handsfree and a leather case. A Java game CD means that you can expand your entertainment options.
Navigation through the phone's menu options is not difficult, with short cut keys on all the directional controls to reduce the time needed to access regularly-used functions. At times, though, the interface is compromised by poor reaction time.
Overall, the LG KG320 phone is slender, stylish and sleek. It is lightweight and well-priced. For those looking for a mid-range phone with all the features including MP3 player and digital camera, the LG KG320 should easily satisfy.

The feng shui bagua map can help you strengthen all the important areas of your life.
In order to identify the location of bagua zones in your home, you need a compass, a diagram of the house, and the bagua grid. First, determine where north is in the room (with the compass). Then take the diagram of the home, apply the bagua grid, and match the north to the career sector (by compass). The sector of fame should be in the south.
Now we know where each zone is. In order to improve a particular area (career, love, money), you need to locate the respective zone and activate it. Similarly, you can use the feng shui bagua map to locate the zone in a particular room and activate it.
How to activate the zone? Each zone has its own color and element. To activate the zone, clean and tidy it, and place the specific color / element in this zone.
Wealth: element is wood, colors are green and purple. It's responsible for wealth, material status and power. Activate this zone, and money will come to you. Here, you can put a small decorative fountain, aquarium, plant with round leaves, or a painting of a beautiful waterfall.
Fame: element is fire, color is red. It's responsible for supporting the individual; it will help to achieve success and recognition. Activate this sector, and you'll be able to achieve fame and success much faster. Here, you can hang your diplomas, certificates, awards, or medals. You can also place a crystal pyramid, or peacock.
Love: element is earth, colors are terracotta and earth shades. It helps to find harmony in a relationship. Activate using red or pink. You can put items that symbolize the unity of the dual, for example, a photo of you and your beloved person, or figures in pairs. There are also various elements that activate love that you can find in Feng shui stores. For example, a red panel with ancient Chinese hieroglyphs meaning love, or chimes with hearts. You can also light 2 red candles and tell yourself that love will come soon.
Children and creativity: element is metal, colors are white, ash, silver and metallic. This sector is responsible for the children, creativity and new ideas. Here you can use children's drawings, crystals and decorative flowers.
Life aides, advisers and travel: element is metal, colors are metallic, silver and gold. This sector is responsible for those who come to your aid in difficult situations. This sector is also responsible for travel. Activate by placing metal objects, such as a bell. Just ring the bell when you need help, and help will come.
Career: element is water, colors are black and blue. This sector can help to resolve career issues. Activate by placing a figurine of turtles or other items related to water: a small fountain, aquarium, or a painting of a river.
Wisdom and knowledge: element is earth, colors are beige and all shades of brown. If you want to study well or plan to go to a university, then this zone is for you. Activate it, and you will become wiser. Hang a bookshelf, or a picture of people whom you would like to follow.
Family: element is wood, color is green. This sector is responsible for the interpersonal and family relationships. Put decorative plants, family photos or a photo of a loved one.
Health: element is earth, color is terracotta. This sector is responsible for health. An excellent option would be to place a large crystal chandelier here.
The feng shui bagua map is an excellent tool. If you learn to use it, you may achieve numerous improvements in all aspects of your life.

Thailand construes to mean 'the land of the free' and true to its name, there are so many free things that you can only get in Thailand. Thailand lies in the heart and soul of Southeast Asia and is arguably the most beautiful place in the world. Be it the mouth watering dishes, lush green forests, the soothing winds, and the alluring beaches, you are sure to experience true exotic beauty, but only upon visiting Thailand.
First things first, Thailand is geographically divided into 4 – the north hosts the forests and mountains, the central hosts farms and paddy fields, the northeast plateau is known for its rich anthropological and archaeological heritage and the southern peninsula is famous for tropical islands. People in the southern peninsula do tin mining, rubber cultivation and fishing.
Thailand's diversity is beyond a shadow of a doubt rich, as there is more than meets the eye. From the welcoming and friendly people, to unrivaled culinary feasts, affluent history, great biodiversity, and outstanding beaches. Whether you are looking for a romantic holiday destination, a shopper's paradise, or a haven to sample different culinary feasts, Thailand offers something for every traveler.
Some of the sporting activities that will give you a break from the beaches include snorkeling, scuba diving, water-skiing, and wind surfing to mention but a few. The capital city of Thailand is Bangkok, which construes to mean the 'city of angels'. Bangkok is a mini-Thailand in its own rights, what of the many activities that take place in the city. It is the hub of industrial, commercial and cultural activities but amidst all the bustles and hustles, you can still experience some serenity and simplicity by visiting the Buddhist temples.
Being a cosmopolitan and all accommodative city, the Buddhist temples are strategically located close to cafes and nightclubs, talk of real convenience. A major tourist attraction you might not want to miss is Phuket, famous for its exotic island, an engaging and pulsating nightlife, and multi-cuisine bars and bistros all closely located to each other for convenience. Of equal importance and a must-visit is Chiang Mai, a location that combines the best of the old and the new of Thailand. In Chiang Mai you will find detailed temples and cultural remnants some dating back to 700 years ago. The Doi Suthep monastery is located over a mountain and overlooks Chiang Mai.
Being a cosmopolitan destination, communication is easy as most of the tourist spots, restaurants, hotels etc speak English and common European languages. By the same token, transportation is easy as you are lost for options, from a taxi, a city bus that operates within the city, a tuk-tuk (a three wheeler that allows you to ride open air) or if you are traveling long distance, you can always opt for the train.
Thailand has 3 major seasons with the cold one starting from November to January, summer commencing from February to May, and the rainy season commencing from June to October, but has enough sunshine for a perfect holiday. Many tourists however prefer to visit Thailand over the December and January months as it is the ideal season to party and relax.

When it comes to taking care of things around the home, it's only natural to look for the easy way out. After all, who really wants to spend hours fixing a leaky faucet or a broken cabinet door? Trying to get through daily life with a minimum of hassle makes sense, until you start trying to find excuses to avoid the upkeep altogether, especially with such essential tasks as implementing home security measures. If there's ever a time to avoid shortcuts, the safety and security of your family and loved ones should be it. And yet there are countless excuses people make for not safeguarding their home.
The most common excuse is that i's too expensive to do anything that's really effective. One of the most prevalent misconceptions about home security is that you have to call an alarm company to install a whole-house alarm system in order to get any protection whatsoever. Actually, home security doesn't have to be expensive, and you certainly can do it yourself.
Wireless door and window alarms, dummy surveillance cameras, alarm company signs and stickers, and dog bark alarms are just a few of the home security essentials that you can get for $100 or less. Even inexpensive security measures can work wonders for the safety of your home. Criminals seek out homes that have no security protection at all, so even just a few simple devices should be enough to make them move on to the next home. There are plenty of homes to choose from, so they'll probably move on when they notice you've made at least a minimal effort towards securing your property.
If you don't have the money to pay for better home protection right now, at least do what's free. Walk around your home to look for areas your home security might be weak. Make sure all of your doors and windows lock securely, and don't forget to lock them when you leave. If you have a spare key underneath the welcome mat, find a better hiding spot. All of these can make it harder for a criminal to break in, and they don't cost a dime.
If money isn't the excuse, then time often is. The second most common excuse made for ignoring home security is that it takes a lot of time to implement good home security measures. In fact, many of these are designed for homeowners to install in an afternoon. By the end of this coming weekend, you could have your home protected, inside and out. You don't have to have any knowledge of carpentry or electronics, either. Wireless window alarms, one of the most popular DIY home security products, simply screw into place. Protecting your home is easier than you thought!
Don't let these two excuses stop you from protecting yourself, your family, and your belongings. Spending an afternoon installing some of these inexpensive home security devices can make all of the difference when a criminal is looking for an easy target in your neighborhood.

Article Title: Is Submitting to Web Directories For One Way Links the Best SEO Strategy?

The answer to the question as to whether web directory submission is the best way to go lacks a definite yes or no. For one, it is an undeniable fact that there are some significant improvements in site Search Engine Rankings which can be directly credited to directory submissions. However, you have to adhere to Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing best-practices. It is to be noted that it is within the sphere of possibility that a scantily conducted web directory submission campaign could be considered by the search engines as spam and prove to be a futile exercise after all.
Web Directory submissions can be very effective and useful and should be done and not ignored. You shouldn't however rely on them fully as the only Search Engine Optimization Strategy. Truth is, you can get a few targeted visits thanks to the directory listings but they will not give you a huge amount of traffic or boost your rankings or pagerank in a matter of hours. With that said, directory submission can be taken seriously on the following few exceptions and things:
Always use Unique Descriptions and Titles – you should have a unique description and title for each of the directories you will submit to. Ensure your main keywords and keyword phrases are well used in the title and description, and ensure that the language is flowing naturally and not spamming. Take the time to create a new title and description for each submission; it will pay off in the end.
Only submit to the best directories. It would be pointless to submit to poor ranking directories, those that have spam on their pages, or those with poor reputation because it would be a total waste of time and money. Go for the highest possible quality web directories, the likes of DMOZ and Yahoo Directory, as well as some niche directories that specialize in your specific niche.
It is OK to deep-link if the directory you are submitting to permits deep-linking. Deep linking is where you submit the URL of web pages beyond your homepage. Keep in mind though that one link per directory is more than enough hence you shouldn't do it for each and every directory you wish to submit to.
Never submit to a directory section just because the section has a high page rank rather, look for the directory section that is most related and relevant to your site and then submit there. In other words, your aim should be thematic linking and not PageRank.
When dealing with paid directory submission services, it is to be noted that they can save you lots of energy and time but you have to be very careful and dictate where and how they submit. Never allow them to run out of control because they'll end up spam-submitting your website to over 50 million unrelated directories and the outcome is not something that you will like for sure.

Article Title: Protecting Your Wallet and Handbag

Your wallet probably holds access to your most private financial data, in the form of debit cards and credit cards, along with plenty of other personal details, contained in the various forms of ID you might keep there. If your wallet or purse are lost or stolen, this can have grave consequences. Along with a thief cleaning out your accounts, you also have to deal with the hassle of replacing everything you had in the wallet.
One important fact to realize is that if somebody was to steal a wallet, they could rack up a large sum of money before your banks realize what had happened. Today, many people have fraud protection through their bank, but while this protection is essential, it is not perfect. What if you left your social security card inside? What if you have more than one credit card in there? Even if the bank is willing to replace the money spent by the thief, the consequences of a lost wallet are more than financial.
Despite this hassle, most people leave their wallets relatively unprotected for large portions of the day. Do you carry yours in a back pocket, jacket, or even a gym bag? Do you ever leave it in a locker or in your car? There are steps you can take to make sure your life won't freeze in the instant your wallet is taken.
First, make photocopies of the front and back sides of each card in the wallet. That way, if they are ever stolen, you'll have the information you need to get them canceled or replaced quickly. This includes not only credit cards and IDs but also gym memberships and other cards you might keep in your wallet on a daily basis. Be sure to keep the copies themselves in a safe place – such as a locked safe in your home – so that the copies themselves don't pose an identity theft risk.
Now, clean out your wallet. Many people carry far too many cards in their wallet. How many do you really need on a daily basis? If you're carrying around more than one or two bank cards, you're exposing yourself to unnecessary risk. Carry only the necessities, and even fewer cards if you're going somewhere that you perceive to be more dangerous than usual. Many people go the additional step of carrying a debit card that's only tied to one of their accounts – keeping most of their savings in another account – to limit the amount a thief would be able to access. Consider writing "SEE ID" next to your signature on the back of your credit card. Though many cashiers do ignore this, it does have a chance of stopping the thief quickly.
If your wallet is ever stolen, act quickly to minimize the damage done. Banks will only freeze your account if they know something shady is going on. Call them immediately to alert them to the lost or stolen card, so that a thief doesn't have a chance to rack up thousands of dollars in fraudulent transactions. If both your wallet and keys have been stolen, change your house locks immediately. The cards in your wallet provide a thief with your address, and your keys will allow them to walk right in through the front door, unless you change the locks.

Web directories and the search engines are mostly used interchangeably that many people tend to get confused. Generally, web directories are lists of numerous web pages listed according to their categories. All websites listed contain reviews about what is contained in the websites, and the name and link of the website. One is able to locate a category and then easily navigate to the sites listed in each given category.
Web directories are manual meaning that they are run and reviewed by humans and not computers as is the case with the search engines. Before a website is listed in web directories, a human being has to review the entire website and not specific keywords and upon approval list it in the directory whereby a website can only be listed in one category only.
Search engines on the other hand use key phrases and words to help internet users locate websites. A search is conducted on the name, titles, contents, and at times in the inside pages depending on the search engine used. Once the search is complete, all results are listed providing the internet user with numerous website links as closely related to the search query as possible.
The most confusing part about web directories and the search engines is that many a times, they are both found within the same website. In other words, Yahoo and Google, despite being search engines, have web directories where searches can also be conducted. There is the provision of searching for something in the directories to locate a specific topic. Yahoo started off in the beginning as a web directory before it further included search engine services.
In order for your website to be listed in directories, it has to undergo certain procedures. First and foremost, you will need to submit the name of the site and any other data so that it can be reviewed, and categorized in the directory. You can do a free submission or paid submission, it all depends with your financial capabilities. As for the search engines, you wouldn't need to submit your website, the automated crawlers index all websites for free, although indexing may take quite a long while.
You therefore have to link your website to others so that you can be located by the search engines, and this is where web directories come in. The surest way to get links to your site so that you can get better rankings with the search engines is to submit to the directories. For better traffic, some web masters even pay directories for some better traffic. Note that the search engines, through search engine optimization and other techniques, provide traffic to websites so that they can get front page listings. However, this may take a long while hence for better page a rank, directory submissions is of greatest importance.
Both web directories and search engines give links of useful websites to internet surfers. With some knowledge on what web directories are and what search engines are, and their major differences and their mechanisms of work, you can be in a better position to conduct a query.

Article Title: Mistakes to Avoid When Setting Up a Link Directory

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
When adding a link directory to your website, there are some very important mistakes that you should avoid, failure to which you will be accumulating big problems for the near future.
- Never create a directory page with all links on a single page, always place 20-30 links on any given page. This is because some websites will avoid linking to yours if their link will be placed among too many other links as this dilutes the value of their link.
- Avoid having sub-categories and sub sub-categories from your main category pages because if the directory is more than 2 levels deep, or two clicks away from the home page, the search engines are less likely to index the page and in the event they are indexed, they will get a lower ranking. Because most webmasters know this point, chances of them linking to you to be placed 2 clicks away from the home page are very slim.
- Take time to select the names for your link categories which you will want to use now and in future as it will be very hard and costly to change names later on. Costly in the sense that once a page is created by the link manager software, it automatically uses the category name assigned to it and it will be indexed and ranked by the search engines. Later on if you decide to change the names, the link manager software creates a new page with the new name meaning you will end up losing the page rank you had built in the earlier page. Needless to mention, if your link partners had linked to you because the page you had placed them on had a good ranking, once you rename the page the rank drops to zero, and most likely your link partners will also drop the link back to your site.
- You shouldn't link to a site just because it has a good ranking with the search engines, look at how relevant the site will be to your visitors. If the site has good content related to the theme of your website but a poor page rank, you should consider linking to it as later on the page rank is likely to improve.
- For a website to achieve better rankings with the Search engines, it has to be built tightly around the theme of the site. As such, you should take the time to plan the link directory, preferably on paper first as you decide on the name to assign to each relevant category that you will create.
- Once you are done setting up the link directory, you shouldn't assume you have finished everything and you can now sit back and relax. No, you should test and retest each aspect to ensure all work as per plan before your site visitors start arriving.
- It can be very tedious to manually check how your links are doing on other websites – reason why you should invest in a good link directory software that automatically checks links the presence of links to your site and goes ahead to suspend and delete any links that are repeatedly absent. Good software not only schedules to check links but also send out emails automatically to webmasters informing them of missing or broken links.

From time immemorial, people have searched for happiness, harmony, love and wealth.
Using feng shui for prosperity allows us to use subtle energies to achieve prosperity in everything. This knowledge can help find love, strengthen relationships, find a vocation, climb the corporate ladder, gain wealth, improve health, and more.
The teaching involves the use of symbols (charms, amulets) for success. One of the most popular symbols of feng shui for prosperity is the vessels. A vessel represents unity and harmony, and stores your desires and aspirations. This bowl can be filled with any items. The main thing is that these objects symbolize what you want. You can have multiple vessels as well.
Try to choose a bowl made of metal (silver, gold, copper), or ceramic vases. The vessel should be squat and rounded. Also turn your attention to its neck: it needs to be broad, but not wider than the middle of the vase. It's easy to get into such a vessel, but it's hard to get out of it.
When you find a suitable container, consider what to fill it with. The stuffing is the main thing in this talisman. Fill the bowl to the brim, so as not to have gaps in what you want.
Three principal objects to consider include soil, Chinese coins, and regular money. Ask a successful and wealthy person for a handful of soil (eg, soil from a plant vase), and pack the soil in a red bag. Obtain some Chinese coins with square holes in the middle, string nine coins on a thread and pack them into another red bag. Now, use real money in the amount of 988. For example, take 9 dollars and 88 cents. If finances allow, take 988 dollars. String these on a string and pack them into yet another red bag.
Start filling the bowl. Put the three red sacks on the bottom. Add a lot of semi-precious stones: coral, malachite, topaz, agate, and amethyst. You can use the jewelry made of these stones, or use rough stones. Remember: The mascot cannot do without the main symbol of feng shui for prosperity – the gold. Put at least one gold item in the bowl. Fill the remaining space with objects colored in gold. For harmony, you can add dried flowers, cones, leaves, and seeds to your vase.
You can go even further. You can put paired figures of animals inside: elephants, horses, fish. You can also add a lotus flower to this idyll. You can put a ring on the bottom of a small bowl, and place it inside the main one. The ring means endless movement. For the embodiment of the sky, draw the sky and put the picture into the vessel.
For the bowl of wealth to help, it needs to be placed properly. Place it in plain sight in your bedroom. Consider placing it in the southeastern part of the room – this will symbolize the desire for harmony and light. Do not put the bowl where there may be strangers, such as in the living room.
Create a good mascot by the rules of feng shui for prosperity, and the material costs involved in it may come back to you a hundredfold.

The media loves to slam the bad boys of the NFL. Players such as Terrell Owens and Randy Moss are made to look like spoiled and obnoxious jerks by the media. As sports fans, you hear about their huge multi-million dollar contracts and their problems on and off the field.
As a recently retired NFL player, I know what goes on behind the scenes in the lives of NFL players. I know about both the good and the bad. I decided to write this article to let you know about the side of players that is rarely covered by the media because it is not considered exciting and newsworthy. I want to talk about the many wonderful things the "bad boys" of the NFL do to make this world a better place.
Randy Moss and Terrell Owen have both have worked extremely hard to make their dreams come true. There are 1800 players in the NFL and out of those 1800 players, the media seems to only care about the bad things players do. As they say in news, "if it bleeds it leads." When was the last time you saw a major story on ESPN about a wonderful thing a player did to help a child or help their community? My guess is you probably cannot remember. But you certainly remember hearing about Terrell Owens not getting along with a player or a coach or Randy Moss doing a fake moon to the fans of the Green Bay Packers.
So for those of you that think Randy Moss and Terrell Owens are horrible people, please take a moment to read about the good things they have done:
Randy Moss
* Spends time visiting local schools and meeting children
* Donates time and money to the Make a Wish Foundation to help terminally ill children
* Donates to the St. Joseph's Home for Children in Minneapolis and an orphanage/clinic in Mexico
* Sponsors a celebrity fishing tournament to raise money for Smile Network International, which provides free reconstructive surgeries to impoverished children in developing countries
Terrell Owens
* Runs the Terrell Owens Foundation and holds many events to raise money for The Alzheimer's Association.
* Holds youth football camps and is personally involved in teaching young players.
* Auctioned his 2004 Philadelphia Eagles NFC Championship ring to raise money for hurricane Katrina relief
Now that you know more about the good these players are doing, I hope you will see them in a different light and not be so quick to judge them negatively.

Search engine optimization entail fine tuning a website's code alongside a thorough linking architecture and just like mechanics, use a checklist to track down what has already been accomplished and how to measure the effect of each step on all other variables. The following is a basic overview of the steps you should take to ensure you leave nothing to chance, anything that can have a positive effect on your website's ranking thus improve the amount of traffic.
Before you start any SEO marketing campaign, it is highly recommended that you have a point of reference to ensure all avenues are explored fully. Webmasters should disregard most of the information they get when listing their services because majority of the procedures these listing companies describe are either ineffective or unnecessary. For instance, submitting a domain name to search engines has become ineffective because today website spidering comes automatic, at least in Google. There is even reason to believe that even using a submission tool can lead to 'sandboxing' a situation where your website is put on probation and becomes invisible in the SERPs for a given period of time.
If you are serious about making a living off your business through search engine traffic, you should oversee the building of your website and ensure it is done correctly. Here is a checklist that should act as your point of reference mainly for purposes of comparing techniques.
-Include all keywords in your JavaScript file in HMTL comment tags.
-Have an XML sitemap within your site.
-Name your site's URL using the same keywords as they appear on your webpage but separated using a dash.
-Your keywords should feature in the meta description, titles, file names of your images, header tags, and alt tags of images.
-Make manual submission for listing to at least 250 search engine optimized directories.
-Retain a 3-7% keyword density.
-Conduct an organic keyword research using software such as Web CEO.
-Each page ought to have only one tag, and also make use of tags 2,3,4.
-Reduce code and increase content for purposes of high text ratio.
-Reduce your webpage's loading time.
-If your URLs are dynamic, ensure they are translated into HTML.
-Ensure your website is W3C compliant.
-Use anchor text to link keywords in articles to other articles within the same site.
Of course there are numerous other ideas to develop and many other tasks to perform but if the above-listed checklist is followed well, you can rest assured that your website is ready to create an impact online. But when all is said and done, the main factor you should consider is the quality of content that you create. A website that has quality informative and interesting content will be deserving of major attention and perceived as an authority website in the market niche. Anchor text links basically outline the path to the source of any content and when the total number of links in your website continues to multiply constantly through downloads, rest assured traffic will come in huge growing numbers, which of course translates to business.

A home break-in is one of the worst experiences possible as a homeowner. The thought of someone in your home, going through your belongings, is very difficult. Then of course there's having to repair the damage and replace your things. After the police have gone home and you're left home alone with your ransacked house and a broken window, what's next? This can be a very frightening time for a homeowner who is forced to confront the fact that there house was not as well-protected as it should have been. Where do you start?
Repairs
After the immediate threat is over and the police have taken their report, your first duty is to repair any damage left by the thieves. This means repairing any broken windows or doors and cleaning up the mess left in the burglars' wake. Do not take your time making the necessary structural repairs to restore the integrity of your home's doors and windows. If you do, you open yourself up to burglars taking advantage of these newly unprotected entrances.
Improving Home Security
The unfortunate truth is that once your home security has been compromised, you can count on burglars coming back again. According to one statistic, a home that has already been burglarized is 4 times more likely to be targeted again by thieves, who have learned that your home security methods aren't strong enough to keep them out.
After your home's been broken into, take the necessary steps to prevent another burglary. Install outdoor lighting and surveillance cameras, door and window alarms, and other home security devices. Do not make the mistake of concentrating only on the entrance used by the burglar this time around. Chances are good that if a burglar was able to find their way inside through one entrance, there are other, equally unprotected entrances around your home.
Improving your home security not only protects your home from another break-in, it may also help you sleep better at night knowing that you have taken the necessary steps to protect your home and your family. Knowing that a burglar could get inside your home is one of the most frightening after-effects of a home invasion. Adding additional security layers can improve your sense of security and well-being within the home.
Insurance
Now that the physical damage has been repaired, it's time to go about replacing your belongings. Contact your home insurance agent and begin itemizing a list of belongings that were taken during the break-in. Photographs, serial numbers, or detailed descriptions can help the police recover these items, and may also be useful to proving the value of your possessions to your homeowner's insurance company.
Once you've replaced the items that were stolen, be sure to keep them safe in the home. Don't throw out the box to your new HDTV; burglars could be watching, and will know that you've spent your insurance money on more possessions worth stealing. Instead, keep it behind closed curtains, and consider additional security measures such as motion detector alarms near any particularly valuable purchases.

Article Title: Where and How to Get Inexpensive Golf Balls?

Golf as it is is a very expensive game indeed, particularly to budding golfers who are just getting started from the first time. A golf ball, new golf clubs, club heads, a golf bag, the right golfing apparel, to mention but a few all culminate into a significant expense. However, as exorbitant as the items can be, the good news is that they are quite durable and can last for quite a long time without any need for replacement. However, there is an inevitable recurrent expense in golf which is the cost of new golf balls.
Any golfer will tell you how sad it is to watch your golf ball soar into tall grass, water hazard, or even disappear in the woods never to be found again. Because most golf courses will be found in areas with sand, water, tall grasses and bushes, it is very easy to lose your golf ball never to see it again. With the cost of a new dozen of golf balls hitting the $50 a dozen, most golfers look for any possible way to save some hard earned money on golf balls.
The surest way to save money on golf balls is to follow your lost golf ball to the woods and search for it until you find it. In the process, you can even find other lost golf balls and significantly cut on the cost of buying new ones. The downside of this however is that it can be quite time consuming and can add up to slow play. Rather than look through the bushes, affordable golf balls can be bought in the pro shop of a golf course or in large retailer shops at a significant discount. Normally, lost golf balls are normally collected, cleaned, polished, and packaged to be sold in pro shops and by the large retailers for as little as fifty cents a single piece.
The disadvantage of buying repackaged used golf balls or those found at the pro shop is that not only are these balls used, they will normally be mixed up as different makes, brands, and models hence will have dissimilar playing characteristics. If you are cost-oriented golfer who likes using the same brand of balls day in day out, here are two options at your disposal. You can get numerous value brands of golf balls that will end up costing you less than ten dollars a dozen. Not unless you are a very experienced player, these affordable golf balls will most likely work as their expensive counterparts.
If you prefer golf balls with a softer feel and more spin than their expensive counterparts, you can channel your focus on the clearance specials that happen end-of-season, mostly end year. The industry of golf normally manufactures new models and makes every year, most of which are not any different than their precursors. In such case scenarios, the old models of golf balls will be marketed and thereof sold at discounted rates hence it can be possible to buy golf balls which would initially go for $30 a dozen for as little as $10 a dozen, and at times even less.
Therefore, keep your eyes very wide open because discounted golfing balls are all around you. As such, when you bump into a deal that seems extremely good to be true, seize the opportunity and stock up your cart when you have the chance. This way, you will significantly save money and at the same time have a good supply of golf balls that will sure last you a very long time.

Article Title: Using Feng Shui Mirrors the Proper Way

Feng shui mirrors are a special object, which should be used with caution.
Let's take a look at the properties of mirrors: they reflect, attract, create the illusion of an extended space, complement the space visually, and redistribute the Qi energy flow.
A mirror can be an excellent corrector, such as in a bathroom. The Qi energy is attracted to water, and moves with water. If you keep your bathroom door open, then good luck may be going down the drains. In this case, the best corrector is a large mirror (the size of the door) hung on the outside and inside of the door. On the outside, it will reflect the Chi and keep it from entering the bathroom and flowing out of your house. On the inside, it will not allow the negative energy to penetrate into the home from the bathroom.
If your bathroom door is opposite the entrance door, it's best not to use a large mirror on the outside of the bathroom door – it will reflect the incoming Qi back to the street. Instead, hang a small round mirror on the inside of the bathroom door, and hang a wind chime on the outside. The chime will pick up the incoming Qi energy and scatter it through your home.
It is best not to use mirror tiles, as they "cut" the reflection. Good Feng shui mirrors should reflect a person completely, with a little space above the person's head – it's the personal growth potential.
Mirrors can help to direct the Qi energy in the desired direction. For example, if your kitchen is opposite the entrance door, you and your guests may be tempted to go to the kitchen and eat. This is not surprising, since the incoming Qi goes straight to the kitchen. If you hang a large mirror to reflect other rooms, the Qi will be redirected towards the rooms and you'll eat less.
Feng shui mirrors in the bedroom are fine, as long as they don't reflect a sleeping couple. If they do, the relationship may suffer from third party interference.
Mirrors in the kitchen are used in two ways. First, to reflect the dining table – this will double the prosperity of the family. Second, for the cook to see who enters the kitchen – this will make him/her feel safer.
Mirrors in the living room can help to enhance it. For instance, if you have a stunning landscape outside the window – hang a mirror on the opposite wall, and the beauty of the landscape will double.
The round Bagua Mirrors with rings of trigrams are very strong protectors, which attract negative objects and restrain them by the forces of nature. Bagua Mirrors are very potent and need to be used with caution. Instead, you can use friendly protective animals, such as turtles and unicorns (Chi Lin), which protect against negative spirits and people.
Let's remember the rules for placing the feng shui mirrors: they should reflect a person in his/her entirety; a mirror opposite the bed can harm a relationship; let the mirrors reflect only nice things.

If you are of the opinion that being bankrupt is the worst that could ever happen to you, you are totally mistaken because the worst is yet to come. The worst comes in hiring the wrong attorney for the job. You can however reduce the chances of the worst scenario by making informed decisions, ie hiring the best man, or woman thereof, for the job. Like anything else in this world today, you have to do lots of research before you hire someone to handle your case – a bankruptcy attorney who will help uproot you from the bankruptcy quagmire that you are in.
Facts about Attorneys
While it is ok to ask friends and family for referrals on the best attorneys, this may not always lead you to the best attorney, unless of course the friend or family has been through filing for bankruptcy. However, it may prove useful to take advice from friends from the legal profession.
Most attorneys today are not qualified enough to pursue a bankruptcy case thus they don't meet your expectations. A good indicator of just how qualified the attorney is, is a certificate.
Most attorneys today are overworked hence may not be able to give maximum attention to all full details that pertain to your case. You may end up feeling that the attorney is not pursuing the case as it should be, thus leaving you irritated and frustrated.
Once you get the attorney you feel might be right for you, you can proceed ahead and strike a conversation with them and ask him questions. How he responds to the questions you ask, and generally how he presents himself to you will tell a lot about the attorney. Inquire about his working experience, expertise, and consultation hours.
Once you are satisfied with the attorney, the first thing that you should do is to discuss with him the kind of bankruptcy that you should file for. Be advised that there are eight different types of filing for bankruptcy. An experienced attorney will best guide you on which type fits your situation perfectly. The second thing you should ask is exactly how you should proceed to file for bankruptcy. For starters, you ought to file for bankruptcy in your state, or where you are living. The attorney should prepare the necessary paperwork required for court presentation.
The third thing that you ought to inquire about is the fees involved in filing for bankruptcy. Keep in mind that the figure mentioned comprises the attorney's and the court fees required. The fourth thing that you should know is exactly where you should file the bankruptcy claim. Your attorney should advice you accordingly and how to get to the station and the kind of documentation required.
Last but certainly not least, you have to know the after-effects of filing for bankruptcy. The moment you file for bankruptcy, your creditors will be notified by the courts and will be barred from contacting you for any payments, which will be followed by a hearing in court. From there, the case will proceed as per the type of bankruptcy filed.
Boiled down, keep in mind that this is your fight hence you have to be really involved in the case and follow it to completion. Don't just leave everything to your attorney; instead, you should work together for success.

THE CARIBBEAN – A PLACE OF ISLANDS
In the Caribbean Sea the West Indies has archipelago of more than 7000 tropical islands. But the luxury hotels and the resorts have made the vacations in Caribbean a well-liked place for all the honeymooners and the retirees a long back. The backpacking and the eco-tourism options have made independent travelers also love it. Weather in Caribbean is almost mild over the entire year; many kinds of all inclusive Caribbean packages and airfares are available; and there is an option of 100's of islands available to choose between them.
Islands in the Caribbean such as Barbados, Aruba, and Cayman out of many are comparatively warm and very flat. Certain other islands, including Hispaniola, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Cuba, and Puerto Rico mark rugged and high mountain ranges alongside of a cool and brisk weather. Even though the climates in all the islands are tropical, weather varies among the different islands because of geography, currents and oceans, and trade winds which blow from east has the effect of creating rain-shadow effects upon the islands which are mountainous. The group of diverse ecosystems are been supported by the diverse climate conditions on the Caribbean islands, which may include the range from Montana cloud forest to cactus scrublands. The weather in winter is dry and warm. Caribbean vacations can be hampered by the season having hurricanes in the time of late summer until the beginning of fall.
Deforestation has been a problem over the hundreds of years for the cause of human settlement, there also exist different kinds of species of birds, mammals, and reptiles which has considered to be nature preserves and threatened species.
Originally, Arawak Indians inhabited the Caribbean islands; they were then invaded by a Carib aggressive tribe. Waves of invaders were seen in 16th to 18th centuries from Portugal, France, Holland, Spain, and England populated these islands, which were the picture of several different and important battles and also the pirate gangs' lair. The number of American Indians was decreased due to war and disease, however, introduction to slaves of Africa and European immigration were responsible for a huge population growth. The waves of immigrants from India and China arrived in the 19th century enlarging the population around 30 million at the current date. Africans (Igbo, Yoruba, Akan, and Kongo), Asian (Indian and Chinese), American Indians (Taino, Arawak, and Caribs) together with European descendants are the ethnic groups are the main reasons for more population. Around 13 sovereign nations are there among the islands and there are also 2 overseas colonies along with 14 dependent territories.
Off the southeast and southern coasts of Florida, the Greater Antilles are been located, and are also formed through 4 important islands, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Hispaniola, and Jamaica (which is further divided on the eastern side of the island as Dominican Republic and on the west as Hati). Well thought-out as a part of this group is the Cayman Islands. Caribbean all inclusive group containing all the smaller islands are the Lesser Antilles which outlines an arc between the Greater Antilles and the northern coast of South America. The most popular and famous islands of the number of islands available are Antigua and Barbuda, Grenada, Anguilla, Martinique, Aruba, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Martin, Virgin, and the Trinidad and Tobago Islands.
VACATIONS IN CARIBBEAN
Bahamas
In Bahamas you feel like heaven is much closer than what you had imagined. Off the coast of Florida you can even find a piece of heaven, in the Bahamas islands. A magical collaboration of laid-back island attitude and the British Colonial formality can be discovered in the midst of a chain of seven hundred tiny islands.
Jamaica
Jamaica is also called as an island for everyone, which provides its visitors a wide range from the exciting mountains which is enclosed by rainforest to the sandy white beaches. Beat of Reggae is the one thing that must not be missed by anyone. Jamaica can be enjoyed the most by residing at anyone of the classy amazing resorts.
Curacao
It is a little difficult for people to locate Curacao on the map just because that's how they needed to keep it. Anyways Curacao is situated on the coast of Southern Caribbean Venezuela. This is a small undiscovered gem and however it still carries its dignity of charming Dutch influence.

It is always a difficult task to try and come up with interesting activities for the children when they accompany you on your trips around the country. Notice I say it may be difficult but it is not impossible. As an example, we decided to take a vacation to the state of Maine and as anyone would guess there simply is not an abundance of things for children to do. We still decided that there was sufficient interest on our part to visit this great part of America and as such we decided to still complete our travel plans.
Most visitors to Maine never consider the possibility that Maine could also be considered a farm rich area. There are in fact a vast number of actual working farms located in this section of the nation. We decided that one way in which we could enjoy the state's great outdoor environment as well as to provide the children with some interesting activities was to spend the day on one of the many animal farms in the state. The children were actually excited about this prospect as they would be able to see what happens on the farm while getting to know and understand other children.
We were fortunate enough to locate a farm in Rockport that does exactly that. It was the Aldermere Farm. As you approach this vast farm you will begin to see acres of beautiful pasture land filled with the cows known as Belted Galloways. These are an interesting breed of cow in that they have a band of white which goes completely around their mid sections of their bodies. Besides seeing these unusual cows the farm offers the visitors a variety of seasonal tours as well as established activity programs.
No farm visit of course could be complete without a side trip to nearby Jefferson's Blueberry Hills Farm. You will find a vast array of farm animals here ranging from cows, and cattle, pigs, Shetland ponies, chickens and goats. Before you depart this farm you are offered the opportunity to purchase some of the finest organic produce in the area. In addition you can even watch them make their own syrup as they tap into their maple trees each year.
In the fall you will see how busy the farms apple orchards become as the harvest begins. There is always something going on around the farm at all times of the year. Often you will find that many of the farms act as bed and breakfast inns allowing you to remain on the farm as long as you so desire.
As you can readily see traveling to just about any area of the nation can be an exciting adventure for not only the adults but the children as well.
You could stay at a Bed and Breakfast. These accommodations offer a pleasant alternative to the crowded and mass produced lodgings of more heavily populated areas. Each B&B, house, or cottage has its own unique rural setting with accommodations which range from basic to exceedingly comfortable. Come experience the best in rural Maine and life on a farm.
By their very nature, these lodgings are as different as people, each with its own flavor, personality, and - best of all - its own host. Our goal is to provide our guests with a total change of atmosphere from the urban environment, and our primary product is peace and quiet at an affordable price.

In the modern world, having confidence and the skills to stick up for yourself is becoming more and more important. This is true not just of adults, but also for children, who might be confronted with any number of dangers, from a schoolyard bully to a violent predator. Though no parent wants to think about their child's need to defend themselves, the truth is, it may become necessary.
If you want your kids to be prepared to handle such situations, self defense and martial arts classes are a great idea. Many recommend beginning these programs as early as possible. With physical bullying in schools on the rise, it is never too early to give your child these skills, which will carry them through to their adult life. Here are five reasons to teach your children self defense moves:
1. Fitness and exercise. Practicing martial arts is great exercise. It's best to start the habit of exercising early in your child's life, which will make it easier for them to continue exercising as they grow up. With so much concern these days about kids who spend all day in front of TV and computer screens, getting your children up and moving is becoming even more important.
2. Discipline. Learning any martial art requires self discipline. A good instructor will help to instill these values. For example, kids' martial arts classes often include an element of ignoring name-calling and other provocation from classmates. This will serve them well as they grow up.
3. Respect. Self defense and martial arts have long been known for teaching respect for one another. Even though these classes teach physical moves that could be interpreted as violent, in fact the basis of self defense traditions is respect and avoiding violence unless necessary. Often, parents notice that their children seem to have a new sense of respect after attending a self defense school.
4. Confidence. Knowing how to defend oneself provides a significant feeling of empowerment and self confidence. Learning martial arts is likely to improve your child's self esteem, making them more outgoing and confident when dealing with others. Even if the actual martial arts moves learned in class cannot be used in a real-life scenario, martial arts instructors work on instilling confidence in their students.
5. Social skills. Practicing martial arts in a competitive class environment gives your child the chance to develop great social skills. For younger children, this includes things like taking turns and being polite whether they win or lose a competition. This is a very interactive activity that is sure to teach your child a lot about working together.
Martial arts and self defense classes are not all about learning how to fight. Instead, this is a way for your child to gain the lifelong skills they'll need to be able to defend themselves calmly and confidently, should the need arise. If you are worried about your child needing to defend themselves against a violent or potentially violent attacker, this is one of the tools available.

Vibration White Finger (VWF) is a condition caused by excessive exposure to hand and arm vibrations, often the result of using particular types of machinery such as angle grinders or power tools. Initially, VWF may only manifest itself as a tingling in the tips of the fingers. If the condition progresses, the fingers may become white and there can be significant loss of feeling, dexterity and sensation. Loss of manual dexterity can also manifest as painful episodes that last up to an hour and result in a weakening of the grip. In extreme cases, fingers may be lost. VWF is a cumulative condition that occurs over years of exposure to vibration.
A matter taken seriously by the HSE
In 2005, legislation was passed in the form of The Control of Vibration at Work Regulations. This was passed to govern and regulate the amount of time for which a worker can be exposed to vibration. The responsibility ultimately falls at the feet of the employer to ensure his workers are not over-exposed. In 1995, the government launched a scheme to compensate ex-miners who incurred, among other conditions, VWF as a result of using mining tools. A group of miners' solicitors and the Department of Trade and Industry drew up to legal agreements to allow miners' claims to be settled outside of the courtroom. Solicitors who rendered their services under the terms of the agreement were paid by the DTI, but only if the claims were found to be successful. This was to ensure that miners with comparable complaints were paid similar amounts in compensation.
However, Parliament has discovered that there have been some significant differences in payouts, according to which firms were used. In addition, the process for the medical assessment was a complicated and time-consuming one. The sufferer was subject to a number of tests and a report written up by a medical specialist. However, some classifications of VWF were not available at the time, which lead to problems within the compensation scheme.
In addition, a deadline for compensation claims was set: March 31st 2005. It was found that some miners were given either inadequate advice or no advice at all, and either received insufficient compensation or none at all. However, using compensation claims specialists, ex-miners may now be in a position to claim compensation for their losses. Many ex-miners have been left unable to complete even the simplest of household tasks, such as DIY, car washing, maintenance or washing the windows.
Taking a Second Look at the Figures
In North Wales, an investigation has revealed that families who were overcharged are missing out on an average repayment of £908. In Delyn alone, approximately 186 families have lost out on payments through bad advice or being overcharged by solicitors for services rendered. Those who feel they have not been fully compensated are being asked to come forward to establish just how much is owed.
By March 2005, approximately 170,000 VWF claims had been lodged and, once they had been processed, around £1.7billion had been paid out to miners and their families. Yet, according to the findings of the National Audit Office, there may be many more claims yet to be processed and claims that were not settled in the proper manner are still outstanding even today.

These days, consumers enter a list of words and phrases on their favorite search engine, review the results and take the link(s) that seems to make the most sense. The problem is that, with so many websites out there, the result lists tends to become too long for anyone to be able to consider every item. Seldom, if ever, does a customer go past the few pages of results. Therefore, you need to be sure your website is at or near the top of the search results. An important part of the success of your website is increasing traffic through SEO, or Search Engine Optimization. An integral part of SEO is keyword selection and use. Here are some tips.
Start by making a list of keywords and phrases that best describe your products and services. Wherever appropriate, also add synonyms to your list.
Unless you are proficient at keyword selection and use, you will want to use a keyword tool. Many are available, although not all of them are free. Google, for example, has a number of free tools available.
You will need to strike a balance between the number of keywords you select and the density of their use. In some cases, this varies depending on how large your site is. With a short one-page site, for example, you can very quickly overuse a keyword and you can make only limited use of synonyms.
With your keyword tools, check on how often your choices are being used. Don't be afraid to try a search test using your keywords. Do the sites in the results pages look like they cater to the kinds of customers that you want to attract?
Remember that sites that are similar to yours may be using the same keywords. The competition for web traffic is fierce. Try to be as specific as possible. If your products and services are geographically specific, for example, be sure to use the location in your keywords. Let's say you are in the commercial lawn mowing business in Orlando. It does you no good to be visited by New York homeowners. A Google search for "lawn mowing" yielded over a million hits, whereas "commercial lawn mowing Orlando" cut the number down by two-thirds. Still too many but you get the idea. There is a tremendous amount of keyword competition in the marketplace today!
What exactly does the term "keyword" mean? Your keywords are words and phrases that you place throughout your site. When search engines "spider" through your site, and all the other sites, they notice keywords. When a customer enters a search query, the search engine reviews it against the data it has collected and the customer gets his or her results list, commonly called hits
There is a lot more to good keyword selection and use. I hope that this gets you started in the right direction. Keywords are an important part of your website's success. And picking the right keywords just might be the difference in a successful site and a failure.

Article Title: A Debtor's Legal Rights and Protection Against Creditors and Debt Collectors

If you find yourself in trouble repaying your debts, it can be very useful to understand exactly the way debt collectors are allowed to act by the law when attempting to contact you. Here is some insight on your legal protection against debt collectors.
First and foremost, you should understand that the Consumer Protection Act protects you against not only your creditors but also the debt collectors at the State Level. A collection agency is prevented from calling you at odd hours, and more than twice in a period of 7 days when they are calling your home. If they are trying to reach you by another location apart from your home, they can only call you twice in a period of 30 days.
When they call, they MUST reveal their true identity and the name of the creditor -- their employer whom they are collecting the debt for. As mentioned, the Acts prohibits them from calling at odd hours. They are only allowed to call at a time when it is expected you should be awake. If they don't possess specific information on your wake and sleep schedule, they should only call between 8a.m. and 9p.m.
The other right as a debtor that you have is that your creditors are not supposed to charge you any costs incurred for long distance phone calls or such like costs incurred when conducting you. If you ask your creditors and collectors not to call your work place, they shouldn't do so. An oral order not to call your workplace remains in effect for up to 10 days while a written order of the same and sent within the 7 days of the oral order remains in effect until you write again to annul it.
If you inform the collection agency or your creditor that they should only deal with your lawyer, the law prohibits them from making any direct contact with you. When making a visit, they are only allowed to do so at your convenience, a time when you are awake, between 8a.m. and 9p.m. Still on point, they can only visit you once every 30 days for each debt owed, unless you permit them to make frequent visits. Collectors are not allowed to use any false threats of legal action or use obscenities/profanities when communicating with you.
Your privacy should be respected by both debt collectors and your creditors. They are not allowed to send you collection notices in a way that openly displays or suggests that you owe them any money. For instance, they aren't supposed to send you a postcard that can openly be read by anyone or indicating their return address on an envelope addressed to you that clearly indicates you owe them money and they are trying to recover it. They are legally barred from discussing your financial status with anyone else; be it your employer, neighbor or even a relative.
There are some extra rules applicable only to debt collectors and not creditors at the federal level. For instance, a debt collector has to verify that you do owe the money they have been appointed to recover. In case you write to them within 30 days of their first communication to you and state clearly that you don't owe the money, they have to cease from contacting you until they send you a copy of proof of the debt before they proceed with debt collection.
You are allowed to prevent a debt collector from contacting you by asking them in writing to stop any further communication. The only further contact they should make is to inform you that they have stopped contacting you. However, they can contact you if they are taking any further action, say by suing you.

Article Title: Characteristics of a Good Defense Lawyer

Majority of criminal defense lawyers mostly find their clients in dire need of an attorney, failure to which they might end up in jail or worse, be sentenced to death. When someone is accused of a crime, the first course of action therefore should be to contact a defense attorney right away. A good defense attorney ought to defend and represent anyone who has committed a crime to the best of their ability. At times however, the attorney can opt out of the case before the case is over, perhaps due to personal conflict when on the case but in most cases, a good attorney worth his salt cannot just leave a client hanging.
In the event that an attorney in the United States opts out of a case, they ought to find a good replacement attorney who will carry the case to completion. There comes a time when an attorney realizes that they are defending the wrong side of the law hence may wish to withdraw from the case. They however cannot just withdraw from the case unless they have another defense attorney to replace them, failure to which they risk being expelled and losing their legal practicing license.
A good defense lawyer should try and negotiate for a deal with the prosecutors, say a lesser sentence or reduced charges. Keep in mind though that depending on the magnitude of the case, the District Attorney can accept to offer a deal or not. There is more to it that a criminal defense attorney does than simply examining a witness and arguing in court. First of all, they see to it that the defendant understands the magnitude of the case and all that is at stake and secondly, they formulate a viable sentencing program customized to the client's needs for instance like offering rehabilitation instead of jail time.
Most of the times when a client is highly likely to be given a death penalty, the defense attorney will advise the client to either give in or fight depending on what really is at stake. A good defense lawyer is further familiar with procedures and rules of the court as well as all important and applicable laws as the system tends to have so many loopholes. Being familiar with these loopholes help the lawyer know how to maneuver and win the case.
Further, a good attorney knows what the jury wants and expects to hear, and state clearly in the opening and closing remarks during a court hearing proceeding. They understand what the costs of pleading guilty will be, and how it is going to affect the client's future life, perhaps when they will be marked as a criminal. The defense lawyer ought to spend enough time on each case trying to win it. More often than not, a defense lawyer will represent just about anyone who can be able to hire their services, but they are at liberty to choose who to represent or not.
Most of them however will go with the clients that they truthfully want to help whether or not the client is innocent or guilty. They however have to follow professional codes of ethics in choosing the case that is important to them. After that, they should then engage the services of an investigation team to find out vital information out there that is likely to make the information presented by witnesses less laudable. They will endeavor to do whatever it may take them and whatever is within their power to represent their clients to the best of the ability and win the case or land the best possible verdict as per the magnitude of the case.
