I was messing about with a skin for Unreal Tournament. I had 2 Bender skins, and one was much better than the other, but I couldn’t remember which files went with which skin. That’s one of them.

Mine was an email address, which I’d rather not give out to the people on this board in order to respect the other person’s privacy. I’ll come back to this thread once I have something in my clipboard that I can share with the people on this board.

" But as the new school year draws nearer, a goal of the construction is to be as unobtrusive as possible. In order to prevent disturbing classes, construction during the 2003-2004 academic year will be focused outside of school buildings. “There’ll be noise, dirt and dust, new routes in the interest of safety, and we won’t let people on the track for a while,” Mr. Mackenzie said. Interior construction will be delayed until after classes are over. “Next summer will be a very ambitious time for internal renovation,” Mr. Mackenzie said.  
The construction is expected to be complete by the opening of the 2004-2005 school year."

Since the school email was down, I just had to copy my article one paragraph at a time and IM it to the editor like that.
