'Dear Debbie,
After returning home to DC I came down with the flu which delayed this note of thanks. We had a wonderful time at your place and the welcome notes and gifts were a great way to start. The girls immediately ran out to use their bags.
Our only complaint was we needed more time to do everything!
Thank you again for the welcome and the opportunity to stay at your wonderful place.
Michele' Washington, DC
'Debbie, We so greatly enjoyed the opportunity of spending Thanksgiving with our family in your wonderful beach house. Your house is so comfortable and so beautifully equipped - a perfect place for a family gathering - and on such a spectacular beach. We treasured and enjoyed every moment that we were there. Thank you so much for allowing us to extend our stay until sunset on Sunday. That made for yet another lovely day.
I hope you will have a lovely Christmas time - and I hope that we will someday soon be able to return to your beach house - if not at Thanksgiving perhaps at another time. Thank you for making possible our precious days at Pajaro Dunes.
Sincerely, Gudrun Rice', Colorado

Why Deborah Smith chose Watsonville
Having looked at other properties on the Monterey Bay, we bought this townhouse when we saw the views and location, which took our breath away! Not a condo, but nestled in the cypress trees sitting upon the dunes. We were impressed too with privacy, at the north end of the Cypress Grove without others walking by, very peaceful and quiet. The beautiful natural setting was most important to us,...... the sand dunes and beach are your front yard.
What makes this townhome unique
Close to everything on the Monterey Bay along with the natural beauty and uniqueness of Pajaor Dunes! Private gated community: 20 tennis courts, conference center available, soccer fields, basketball areas, hiking, biking trails, birding. 2 miles of pristine beach at your door. Minutes to Carmel, Pebble Beach, Capitola, Big Sur, Monterey Bay Aquarium, organic strawberry-apple picking,
Monterey Peninsula golf and more....
Private 24 hour security.
Premium plus 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 2300 square feet, three level town home.

Guestbook comments from the owner
Just wanted to tell you that my family had an incredible time at your beach house! The reason for our trip was to enjoy quality family time--and that we did.
The house is beautiful, comfortable, and met all of our needs. We cooked all dinners in and found the kitchen exceptionally well-equipped.
We saw dolphins, sea otters and even whales! On our last night we had a fire on the beach and roasted marshmallows! It was an amazing time. Since being home I miss the comforting sound of the ocean at night when I go to bed!
Thank you again. We hope to do this again next year!

Let me set the story. Wife and kids are out of town for Spring break, I have to work (hey, someone's gotta keep us fed). I left the house at 6:00 this morning.
I got home at about 7:00 tonight and noticed the front porch light on. I never turn the porch light on when I leave for work in the mornings.
Did I call the police? No, I pull my CW (extra mag on my hip), my mini-maglight, and head up the steps to the porch.
The dining room light, kitchen light, hallway light, were also on. I swept the main floor, upper floor, basement. Nothing missing. Nothing out of place.
I checked the driveway - mostly rock but some muddy areas looking for unusual tire tracks. No fresh tracks except for my car.
I must have left the lights on this morning - getting old and senile.
I was afraid of looking silly by calling the local boys and having them come hold my hand while we checked for monsters under the bed.
In a real situation my pride may have killed me this evening.

For some photographers, the camera bag is a vital piece of equipment. Not only is it a space for protecting valuable gear from the elements, but it's a space of concealment for other bits and pieces too. For others, camera bags are unnecessary barriers preventing the photographer from having the camera ready to capture the decisive moment. Continue reading

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - State-backed Citizens Property Insurance says it's making changes to operate more efficiently and more customer friendly at the same time.
Board Chairman Carlos LaCasa announced measures Friday that could provide some relief to customers upset about losing credits over disputes on wind mitigation credits.
LaCasa said that Citizens would do a follow-up inspection at no charge to customers whose mitigation credits were removed because of inadequate access. LaCasa also said that going forward the company will suspend removing a credit for one year if inspectors are unable to gain access for any reason.
Any Citizens customer who made improvements can ask for a re-inspection and have a credit retroactively awarded, but Citizens will not return any premiums retroactively.
LaCasa also said Citizens in reviewing its travel and expense policies.

Nike, redo the Lebron viii now pls
no zoom iii soldier?
let go lebron time to get fitted for that ring….
NO COOL GREY VIIs?
I had them on at #23 but I forgot about another joint that had more back story. It was tough to leave off. WIthout a doubt they are the best not on the list IMO.
let's ride cleveland 2010…f miami, no heart
you get the same offer, you do the same thing, he dont owe yall ish, get over it homie
lebron should come out with some of these colorways 4 fans…….cuz those hardwood classic VIIs are nuts
I wish I could have shoes like him
why not have a page with all the kix instead of scrollin through 25 pages. i hate when yall do that BS and you always have overrated # 1s
a lot of blogs do this: split up articles into multiple pages just so they can serve you more ADS.
the best is the Houston all star Lebron
Man I wish I had got those "First Games!!" My favorites are the Bred 3's, just a nice shoe.
Where are the Lebron VI Los Angeles at?
The Zoom LeBron III Birthdays are by far my favorite. Not even listed? SMH
We went with just the signature LeBron series. Trust me, with more than 100 colorways of GR's, Special editions, and PE's it would have been impossible to add the entire Soldier series, AF1s, and other shoes to the mix and cut down to 23 without spending forever to leave great shoes off the list.
lol thats intense
what a chump ….. SELLLLLLL OUT B*IATCH
its ok i did his mother -TEAMATE OR SHALL I SAY X TEAMATE SELL OUT – OHIO
Wat about the mitch-match VII's…??
F!c the Cavs, Go Heat!!!
forget the shoes. GO DUCKS BABYYYYY
Where in this list are his christmas shoes from this year? They sold out in less than a week, by the time new years rolled around, they disappeared offline.
what about the wheat zoom generations? and the vi stewie griffins? they were pretty ill
Lebitch is a sucka I don't care how many rings he win they will all be tainted cus he had to team up wit mega stars. Oh yeah Kobe the best.
Good job riding Kobe at the end – you forgot the part where he rode Shaq en route to his first 3 rings. Then got a bit of help from a solid player in Gasol. Kobe struggled only after Shaquille left, and was left looking like a fool demanding trades to become a contender once more.
I'm not saying Kobe's bad, but you can't bash LeBron when your favourite player isn't any better (and arguably worst, considering LeBron never asked for a trade and tried his best to work with the minimal talent he was given).
No Red Carpets??????
And i WISH i could get my hands on those Bred XI inspired LBVII's.
I feel bad for the CAV'S, i wonder if Delonte'west had anything to do with that, i hope that rumor wasn't true, The CAV's org. gave him so much creative control..with the jersey's,he couldve gottn purple throwbacks if he wanted them to,i love those New York Knicks colorways..now his kicks will be boring and basic black/red/yellow..there isn't to much he can do,less his brand becomes like Brand Jordan and allow other NBA stars to wear his kicks,they will sell much much better,he should have stayed and played through like JOrdan and others,MJ battled the Pistons and Battled the Pistons till Him and The Bulls learned..
LeBron's shoes don't have any exclusive rights where other NBA players can't rock 'em when they play … well, at least I'm pretty sure that's the case – saw Nate rocking his LeBrons steady throughout the season.
Jordan stayed because he had pieces like Scottie Pippen on his team, and he knew they could only get better. The Bulls organization catered to him properly and gave him the skill needed to win multiple championships. LeBron had Mo Williams.
If you're telling me that LeBron had any help on the Cleveland roster variations he's played with throughout the years that was anything close to Hall of Fame caliber (ex. how Pippen, Rodman were to Jordan), you're dreaming. You can't expect him to have blind loyalty and play with them forever until he finally carries them to a ring (if he could even accomplish such a feat). Dude has to think about himself, and a history with no championship included simply is less of a legacy which isn't exactly what he wants. He made his move not to avoid tarnishing his impact on the league, but to make more noise than he could have ever done on that sub-par Cleveland roster.
I believe that LeBron's decision to join the Heat will cause his shoe sells to decline.
How much money could I get for every pair of Lebron's 1-7 in size 8.5 combined? Each year I got a pair and never wore them.
No red carpet's?? Those and dunkman VII are fav lebron shoe ever
TO all the people that are upset and selling their lebron collections… Hit me up
How much money could I get for every pair of Lebron's 1-7 in size 8.5 combined? Each year I got a pair and never wore them.
How much?
I get a kick out of the people who call LeBron a sell out cause he decided to leave the Cavs. Sure, Akron's his home and all, but LeBron wants to be a winner and a winner in Cleveland he was not. He has a much better chance winning a ring in Miami then he does in Cleveland. The fans were without a doubt loyal to LeBron and he gave them 7yrs, however, the Cavs management never really did much to give LeBron somebody to play with. They felt he could carry the entire team…If Cleveland fans want to blame anybody for LeBron leaving, blame your owner and team management.
Go get em in South Beach, LeBron. Those so called loyal fans of Cleveland were real quick to slaughter you after your decision was made. They never cared about what was best for you and your future and your family. Cavs fans are selfish and their reactions quickly displayed that.
The LeBron 4 had the best colorways imo but I remember when I first saw pics of those fruity pebbles LeBrons I wanted them soooo bad haha
@Nicekicks, did you guys consider the Dunkman LeBron IVs?
D.C. is ah stupid ass, Kobe had Shaq who is a mega star stupid, and Gasol. Kobes the best LMAO! he couldn't even get ah Mvp Finals wit Shaq on his team but he's the best LMAO, Let that would of been MJ.
Cavs had the worse cw's for Lebron. Heat will look waaaaaaaay better.
basic red, white, black and hint of burnt oranges. the heat doesn't have any throwback uniforms to choose from. go kill yourself!
Burgundy and gold with the occasional black wasn't bad for the most part … though he'd usually just end up rocking the bred c/w's that Nike made! Eitherway he went, I think the c/w's he rocked would be the same for the most part ..
How come there's NO Red Carpets? That is best colorway of the VII's IMO.
No Big Apple's, No Red Carpets? Taxi's?
No Zoom LeBron 3 III "2006 All-Star Game Edition" in the (white / varsity red / chrome) colorway ???
On top of that no Zoom 20-5-5 (white / black) ???
where are the vii red carpets?!
Ain't nobody beatin me in 2k11 imma drag that a$$ with the heat no matter what shoes he's wearing

I'm not saying that breast implants are bad. As you know from my story, I got them… loved them… got an infection and had to have them removed, which was not in my initial game plan. I spent four years hiding and covering my insecurities about my deformed breasts, which brought me back to the negative body image I had when I was young. Sometimes when we think that we are strong and have worked through our issues, life gets in our way and we become challenged to face them again.
As a young girl I was tall, chubby, and had no breasts. What I thought at that age was that I had three strikes against me. I cried out of embarrassment because the other girls were shorter, thinner, prettier, and it seemed as if puberty had been much kinder to them in the "breast department." The boys liked them but not me. This led me to join Weight Watchers when I was 15 to seek a solution to be just as thin as the girls on the magazine covers because I was already just as tall as they were. Loosing weight was hard. It took time, commitment, and determination. It worked. I actually got some small-time modeling gigs but I still didn't feel pretty enough. I felt insecure because I never make it on a cover of a magazine. By the time I was a senior in high school, I compared myself to everyone else in the world and I became bulimic and anorexic. I thought that might be the answer. In my mind I wasn't pretty enough, my breasts weren't large enough, my nose wasn't small enough, my hips were too wide… I even allowed myself to believe that I wasn't enough. Nothing worked…
As a young girl and teen, I was marked with body image disturbance, or body Dysmorphia. I had an imagined defect in appearance. I perceived myself as not pretty enough, even within. But, I wasn't alone. According to the National Eating Disorder Association, 10 million women suffer from eating disorders. Through my own therapeutic work in overcoming these deep rooted issues, I had to replace my negative, self-defeating thinking about my body image with more realistic, self-enhancing self-talk.

Hi: 8° Lo:0°
By Tim Clarke Friday 30 November 2012 Updated: 02/12 13:47
THE BISHOP of Worcester has admitted many people will have been left 'hurt and disappointed' by the decision of the Church of England to reject moves to introduce the first women bishops.
But Dr John Inge said he remained confident it would not be too long before the first women were ordained bishop, despite Tuesday's (November 20) controversial decision by the Church's General Synod.
The legislation needed to secure a two thirds majority in each of the Synod's three houses which it achieved overwhelmingly in the House of Bishops, where 44 of the 49 bishops backed it, and the House of Clergy where 148 voted in favour and just 45 against.
But, its failure to win the support of the House of Laity by just six votes ensures the wait will continue for the first women bishops.
Bishop John - who had been a strong supporter of the legislation - said: "Very many people indeed will be disappointed and hurt by this decision, not least the huge numbers of women whose ministry as priests has enriched the Church of England immeasurably over the past 20 years.
"I want all of them to know, especially those in the Diocese of Worcester, that their ministry is greatly valued by me and many others both inside and outside of the Church and that they are in my thoughts and prayers."
Bishop John said the final decision was particularly disappointing given that the overwhelming majority of the Dioceses of the Church - 42 out of 44 - had signalled their support for it
"I remain confident that, though it will not happen as soon as many of us had hoped, women will be ordained bishop in the Church of England before too long," he added.

The spy photos were both detailed and plentiful, and today, any remaining mystery about the new Hyundai Genesis luxury sedan's looks can be put to rest. The car was previewed to the media in Korea this week, and the photos released by Hyundai show the Korean-market version of the car au naturale. Note the newly-unveiled winged Genesis emblem on the hood and wheel centers. The US-market cars should sport the familiar stylized "H" instead. Specific technical details are not given save for confirmation that the four-door Lexus-fighter will be offered with a 375 horsepower Tau V8 and a pair of Lambda V6's (3.3L and 3.8L). According to a company spokesman, the most expensive version of Hyundai's new flagship should come at around $40,000 USD depending on equipment (the V6 should sticker under $30K). Koreans will be able to buy the car in January, with US and Chinese sales to follow later in the first half of '08. The car's full dog-and-pony show reveal will take place next month at the Detroit Auto Show, and we'll be there to bring you all the details.

Genesis, Hyundai's New Beginning
Genesis logotype and emblem unveiled
(Seoul, Korea) Marking a new beginning, Hyundai Motor Co. today announced Genesis as the official name of its eagerly anticipated luxury sports sedan. Benchmarking and bettering the competition, the Hyundai Genesis redefines luxury by presenting a credible alternative to the premium automobile offerings from Germany, Japan and the United States.
Adopting a rear wheel drive architecture and numerous technical innovations, Genesis opens a new era of high performance Hyundai motoring.
At the same time, the company has unveiled the Genesis emblem consisting of the Genesis logotype set in a black hexagonal shield framed by a pair of wings. The wings, executed in a hyper-metallic silver, symbolize the spirt of flight and soaring above it all. However, the Genesis emblem will only be applied to the Korean and Chinese markets.
With Genesis, Hyundai opens an exciting new chapter in its 40 year-long history to compete at the very highest levels of the automotive business.
At the pinnacle of the Genesis motoring experience is the all-new Tau V-8 engine which will deliver 375 horsepower to the rear wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. Hyundai's silk-smooth V-6 Lambda engines will also be offered in 3.3- and 3.8-liter editions. Hyundai pledges excellence at every step of the Genesis ownership experience from purchase to delivery and after-sales service.

Terry Bradburn, a 64-year-old widow, was No. 176 in line at Liberty Ministries Christian Fellowship's food pantry in Sacramento, Calif., on a recent Thursday, waiting for her allotment of salad mix, fresh pineapple, dried and canned beans, bagels and coffee cake.
"The line is short today," she said. "The big crowd already came through."
Her brother, Vincent Venezia, was right behind her, No. 177. He lost his caregiver job a year ago. Now, at 60, he lives part of the time with his sister. And part of the time, he said, he lives on the American River.
"He went from doing good to dirt poor," his sister said.
Across the country, people 60 and older represent the fastest growing demographic asking for charitable handouts of food. In the parlance of experts, they are among the "food insecure," the growing number of Americans, including 5 million older adults, for whom nutritious meals are either inaccessible or unaffordable.
In the land of plenty, where one-third of adults are considered obese, many seniors are at risk of going without food.
"It comes as a surprise to most people that seniors are going hungry," said Dr. James Ziliak, director of the University of Kentucky's Center for Poverty Research. "People think we conquered hunger with the War on Poverty back in the 1960s.
"But we're not talking about pockets of malnutrition like we were back then. We're talking about individuals and households experiencing substantial financial stress, which translates into an inability to feed themselves and results in poor health outcomes."
Because of increasing demands on their fixed incomes, bankruptcy filings for people 65 and older have more than doubled in the past 20 years, according to the National Consumer Bankruptcy Project.
"For the elderly, the cost of living has gone up, but their income hasn't changed," said Eileen Thomas, who directs the River City Food Bank in Sacramento. "They probably have more pride than anybody else. It's difficult for them to say, 'I need help.' "
As a result, too many seniors make a quiet choice about what's really necessary for daily survival: Should they pay for prescription medications or food?
For Venezia, the choice means going without his blood-pressure medicine. For Bradburn, it means not purchasing the testing strips to help monitor her diabetes.
"I know when my blood sugar drops," she said. "You get the shakes real bad."
AARP Public Policy Institute figures show that the number of older Americans in danger of food insecurity jumped from 4.7 percent to 10.1 percent between 2006 and 2008, midway through the nation's economic crisis.
At statistically greatest risk, said Ziliak, are African American seniors, older adults raising their grandchildren and those without college degrees. The stress of food insecurity takes a toll on their health.
"We find they report low health in general," he said. "A food-insecure 65-year-old has comparable activities of daily living to a food-secure 79-year-old. Not having food ages you 14 years."

Beautiful Castle!
Emily from Troy, OH– Verified Buyer
The castle is well made, good quality like most Melissa and Doug products, and the only assembly required is placing the highest turrets on top of the castle. My toddler loves playing with this, and tries to sit in it too. She broke one of the turrets off from the base (she was trying to sit on it), but because it's wood, it was easily glued back on.
Details, Great Design
Kendra from Austin, TX– Verified Buyer– Top 500 Reviewer
Delighted with this purchase, my 3 year old daughter loves the castle. We've had it for 6 months and it's very durable. Works perfectly with the Mini Disney figures. I love that it doesn't look cheap and had great detail work.
Solid Platform for Imagination
Jesse from Charlotte, NC– Verified Buyer
Product came almost fully assembled. My 4 year old put the 2 towers on top and it was finished. Solid construction, nice detailed paint. It is challenging to find dolls that fit if you don't go for the Melissa and Doug dolls.
Best Christmas Present Ever!
Debra from Carlisle, PA– Verified Buyer
Purchased this for our 2-12 year old Granddaughter. I wish I could load the video for everyone to see. She was so excited and just kept saying It's just what I wanted, it's just what I wanted over and over and over. She loves it, it was worth every penny. Great quality that will last for years
Karen from Arlington, TX– Verified Buyer
My three-year-old granddaughter watches all the Disney movies and likes to pretend she is a princess. This wooden castle was a big hit for her birthday. I love that it can fold out for play and then fold together for storage.
