1. **State the problem:** Simplify the expression $$- \{3 + [-(-9) \cdot 4 - 6 \div 3]\} + 5 \cdot 2 \cdot [7 - 10] \div 3$$.
2. **Recall order of operations:** Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
3. **Simplify inside the innermost brackets:**
- Calculate $-(-9) = 9$.
- Then multiply: $9 \cdot 4 = 36$.
- Divide: $6 \div 3 = 2$.
- So inside the square brackets: $36 - 2 = 34$.
4. **Simplify inside the curly braces:**
- Add: $3 + 34 = 37$.
- So the expression becomes: $$- \{37\} + 5 \cdot 2 \cdot [7 - 10] \div 3$$.
5. **Simplify inside the square brackets:**
- Calculate $7 - 10 = -3$.
6. **Calculate the multiplication and division:**
- Multiply: $5 \cdot 2 = 10$.
- Multiply: $10 \cdot (-3) = -30$.
- Divide: $$\cancel{(-30)} \div \cancel{3} = -10$$.
7. **Put it all together:**
- The expression is now: $$-37 + (-10)$$.
8. **Final addition:**
- Calculate: $-37 - 10 = -47$.
**Final answer:** $$-47$$
