as you all have probably seen Justin made the cover of all the tabloids this week because of photos that surfaced of him spending extra time with one of his crew. But here are the pics! hes clearly doing nothing wrong….
Justin brought "SexyBack" to the top of Billboard Hot 100! I can't believe it's been 8 years since FSLS.
(So, I realized that it's not Sept 9th in the US just yet, but it is where I am)
i posted the video before of justin on the aussie new show "sunrise", which is going to feature justin all week long. Talking about the tour, life on the road and life as he knows it.
SHE'S bringing sexy back on Channel 7 and he's the pop prince who enjoyed global success with the track he penned by the same name.
And it's this cheeky point that bonds the two celebrities during a hot new Justin Timberlakeexclusive interview by Samantha Armytage to air on Sunrise this week.
Jetting to Las Vegas earlier this month to score the rare, access-all-areas chat with the entertainer, Armytage says she was wowed by his industry smarts and more than a little taken with his sexy charms.
Teasing her he could "come after you" over copyright of the Seven makeover show's title, Armytage offers to dig around in her wallet for some cash before Timberlakequips: "You might owe me a little bit but I'm going to let it slide."
Squiring this month's Australian Women's Weekly cover girl behind-the-scenes of his MGM Grand concert, before giving her a shout out during the show, it's little wonder this single lady returned home gushing about Timberlake.
Television Captures > 2014 > Sunrise Captures 8/24/2014

We seem to have survived quite unscathed from this year's hurricane season. Only "Odile" caused some damage at the farm: thankfully we were just "kissed" with a bit of rain but we did experience some strong winds that brought us some good height waves (reports of up to 6 meters/19 feet in our area). The damage to the farm was minimal, but the waves battered down and collapsed the main access to our work area (the "palapa") and we are not going to be able to offer any guided pearl farm tours until it is fully repaired, hoping we will be ready by the end of October.
On the opposite side of the Gulf of California: La Paz, Cabo San Lucas and other communities experienced significant damage to homes, hotels and shops, as well as on the roads, electrical infrastructure and drinking water supply. We send our sincere wishes of speedy recovery to our brothers and sisters in Lower California.
And here is where it all ends for most people: in the material and human damages. But I think that most people forget yet another innocent victim of these devastating forces: our Biodiversity.
This past October 16 – right after the passage of "Odile" in our area – I went for a walk at the beach just in front of Hotel Marinaterra's "Beach Club" in nearby San Carlos; this little beach has a beautiful cove formerly known as "Shangri-La". The cove has many rocky reefs, a sand-and-pebble rock beach and a beautiful island coveered with giant cactii. I have loved this place since the first time I visited it in 1988 and it always has had an interesting fauna and it is a good place to practice some snorkeling. It pained me to see it this way…
The first thing that one can appreciate are several large garbage heaps, mainly consisiting of PET (soft drink) plastic bottles and house-hold cleaning containers, all kinds of plastic bag products, footwear (including tennis, shoes and flip flops), car tires, pieces of PVC pipe, pieces of home appliances (TVs, radios, VCRs, etc.).. I even was lucky enough to find a couple of audio tapes! (years without seeing one), assorted garments and accessories (underwear, sunglasses, caps, etc.). And this without considering all the contaminating elements that we can not see, as they would be all kinds of chemicals such as oil derivatives and of cleaning products.
It is really sad to see this display and know that this happens partly because waves are able of destroying whatever they find in front of them, but mainly because rainwater drags all this garbage into the sea. Our sea and our beaches have become an unofficial "Trash Can".
After watching the huge quantities of garbage I moved on to find some of the innocent victims of this natural phenomenon: Marine Life. Sadly I discovered dozens of different groups of animals, all of them dead. The most easily recognized ones are the fish; I saw moray eels, seahorses, stingrays, puffers, cardinalfish, snappers and croackers. Sad images, but there were even larger quantities of dead invertebrates.
Fan Corals
These typical corals from the sea of Cortez are fished out to satisfy the tourist's need for a souvenir (please don't buy these corals, you will encourage their fishery…instead, find them on the beach). These invertegrates are few in numbers and take many years to grow. These primitive animals resemble the old-style "hand-fans" and that is the reason for their common name. That sad day I found hundreds of these corals on the beach, from at least 4 different species, but the most abundant species were: the "Purple coral" and "fire coral", the latter is one of the most beautiful in our Gulf. And along with these corals I found yet another hapless victim: the "Rainbow Lipped pearl oyster", which is the species that we grow in our pearl farm here in Guaymas.
Local fishermen know that this species of pearl oyster is commonly found attached on top of these corals, and that is the reason why they have given this species the name of "tree scallop". Among the corals which I collected on the beach, I found some 15 small rainbow lipped oysters.
Thousands of mollusks died on this beach. I found dozens of different snail species such as Cone shells (Conus), turban snails (Turbo), Conchs (Strombus), and even several varieties of bivalves such as: mussels, clams, scallops and ark shells and black-lipped oysters. Their hard shells had been shattered against rocks when they were ripped from their habitats and then crashed and beaten against the reefs or rocks in the strong surge of waves. Some animals were still alive –but very weak- but most had their shells cracked and shattered. The animals that seemed to have a better survival rate were the Black lip pearl oysters, most of them only had a seemingly polished external shell. However, most seemed damaged beyond any salvation. I did not find a single Octopus, so I assume these critters are quite adept at escaping the wrath of the waves.
The Echinodermata
This is yet another group that suffered great losses… mainly among the starfishes and sea cucumbers. I did not find a single sea urchin, sand dollar nor sea biscuit, but this may only mean that the fragile shells of these organisms were "pulverized" in the violent waves. I collected dozens of starfishes of at least 3 different species on this beach, but the beach was covered by hundreds of these. The Sea cucumbers I found were from an uncommon variety, which is found buried in the sand.
Most people do not feel any love for marine worms: they are not "nice looking" and some are frankly aggressive and may cause pain. If this group of animals I saw at least 3 different species: several specimens of "fire worms", a variety of "polychaete worm" that has thousands of cirrii or spines which can deliver an excruciatingly painful toxin to whomever dares touch them. However the most numerous group was that of the sipunculids ("peanut worms"), worms that are found buried in the sand. Some of the worms measured up to 40-50 cm/16-20" long.
Many people will not think much of these innocent victims, because they are not cuddly, don't have big bright eyes or colorful feather or fluffy fur… but for me all these animals are valuable and "beautiful" in their own way; these creatures fulfill important roles in our ecosystems and make it possible for the perfect functioning of the Gulf of California. If we have any self-esteem, then there is a chance that we will also be able to harbor love for our sea and its creatures… we can demonstrate this love by making a real effort to avoid polluting our seas and beaches, so we do not have them become a "watery landfill", and we can also do whatever is in our hands to protect these animals directly.
I was recently at a seminar and we had a couple of spectacular speakers there. Almost at the end of the event they told us a story – it could have been real or fictitious, but this is not important – which I would now like to share with you all:
After a stormy night, a man started walking along the beach the very next morning. As the Sun was coming out he discovered that the beach was litered with thousands of Starfish, which at that moment would begin to die from desiccation. He continued walking until he found a youngster who was busy picking up these invertebrates and returning them to the sea. There were thousands upon thousands of starfish, so this effort seemed futile.
The man approached the boy and told him: "Boy, don't you see that what you are doing does not make any difference? They are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of thousands of starsfish. You will not be able to save them all!"
The child -with a starfish still in his hand – was thoughtful for a moment. He then threw the animal back into the sea and replied to the man: "Well, it may be true, but for those starfish I've put back in the sea I have made a huge difference".
Even if your personal contribution is limited to not polluting and possibly even to telling others to stop polluting… you are doing a very good thing! And if for some reason you decide that you can even help to collect the existing trash then you are doing something even better and making a greater difference!
If you are thinking about extracting/fishing or buying shells or corals from fishermen, I invite you to avoid doing so and to wait to collect those you find on the beaches. Corals, snails and pearl oysters take many years to grow and may disappear from our ocean if we keep doing this, and this leaves us all in a colorless world, a world of less diversity and decreased beauty.
I invite you to be part of those who make the DIFFERENCE and not part of those living in INDIFFERENCE.
Until next time.

Ah, Menhattan. The land of the chance, availability, and strong political opinions. Some of us are loyal to our political party to no finish. Keep in mind our stance final year against folks who didn't vote? No vote. No perform.
If you've been the victim in this kind of a predicament, you must understand that getting suffered an accident that resulted in damage may entitle you to compensation in your own thoughts, but not necessarily in the eyes of a jury. Any slip and fall lawyer will inform you that several this kind of instances are extremely hard to win. You have to prove clear negligence on the component of the residence owner and that isn't always effortless to do. If you want to start taking steps in the direction of a settlement, however, you must get in touch with an personal injury attorney and get a specialist view on your prospects. It may not even harm to get numerous.
Once you have carried out your due diligence and you come to feel like you've covered all the bases you can come to feel cost-free to select which preschool or center is very best for you and your child and come to feel risk-free and comfy about your option.
My Dad is God Almighty, the Creator of the Universe. He is my Heavenly Father. Can you believe that? It just boggles my thoughts to think He desires me as His child. Now with a Father like that, why not brag? We must want to inform absolutely everyone about our Father, and pray they have a longing in their heart to want to know Him much more. He's really worth all the bragging we can do. He is an amazing Dad.
You must also request oneself a series of concerns when taking into consideration if you must employ someone with a criminal past. Some of the concerns you must request include: How significant had been the crimes? Had been they violent in nature? Has the possible employee appeared to clean up their act? Does the possible employee pose any risk to the workplace based on these crimes? Will these crimes affect the way the employee performs? Is there anything in your organization policy that prohibits or encourages this type of hiring? By asking these concerns, you will be capable to much more simply make a choice about hiring someone with a criminal past.
Do you compensate your teachers the typical going rate in this spot or over? What advantages are teaches offered if any? What is the minimal hiring wage? How significantly is the very best-paid instructor in your college paid?

Ok, does anyone else see any references to Akira in that video?
Watch it and I think you will see it too!
Damn good video!
oh yes!! i did see the references and he did a good job with video...but i cant say the same thing about the music, I do perfer the Daft Punk version...
ok cool the video is good but did you know half of the video is from a chinese movie ? i like the song i havent heard the daft punk version i will have to look soon
The Kanye West Version
The Daft Punk Version
The Daft Punk version is actually part of a movie spread over the songs from that CD. AS for the Kanye West version, I can definantly see the Akira references.
Personally, I actually like both. The Daft Punk version is put together well, but I like the Kanye West version slightly more cause it's a bit harder & faster (couldn't work out the right wording for either).
I like both as well. But Kanye's is better to me cause its gets me ready to party. I just don't feel that same "out all night coming home with someone" vibe on the daft punk one.
hmmmmm. this is in interesting forum. i might say i do like that song. it is one of my favorite songs at the moment
I am going to move this to Sensory Pleasures about thats the area for music, TV, films etc.

An RFE/RL investigation reveals the opulent palace of the former Ukrainian environment minister, Mikola Zlochevskiy, who served under ousted President Viktor Yanukovych. Activists demand an investigation into Zlochevskiy, whose business links include the son of the U.S. vice president.
Some have traveled by train to southern Russia; others have found refuge in quieter parts of Ukraine. But all those displaced by the conflict in eastern Ukraine have one thing in common: They are seeking safety and a chance to return to an ordinary life.
The Ukrainian village of Krymske lies on the front line. Government forces are dug in around the village, but civilians face frequent artillery fire from Russian-backed separatists. Many feel they have no choice but to stay -- and take their chances with the shells falling around them.
Halyna Trofanyuk started 2014 at the freezing protest camp on the Maidan. It was a decision that also had far-reaching consequences for her personal life: a relationship won and lost, a grandson conceived on the Maidan. But Halyna, now disillusioned, says she's ashamed to have joined the protests.
Sergei Kulik has been producing oysters and mussels in Crimea for the past six years. His business has received an unexpected boost since the Russian government imposed retaliatory sanctions on Western food products in August, forcing seafood suppliers to shop closer to home.
Czechs on November 17 marked the 25th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, the peaceful protest movement that brought an end to communist rule in Czechoslovakia. Thousands of protesters used the anniversary to denounce what they said is the current president's poor record on human rights.
At 21, Simon Panek led student protests against the communists in Prague. After the revolution, Panek set up People In Need, providing aid and supporting human rights from the Balkans to Ukraine and beyond. Just as Czechs benefited from outside support during communism, now they provide it.
Ukrainian Service correspondent Natalie Sedletska used cars, a boat, and even a drone to track down the mansions of two Yanukovych-era Naftogaz execs who are this weekend running for parliament -- and the immunity from prosecution that goes with it.
Twenty-five years ago, Hungary declared the creation of a new democratic republic, bringing its communist era to an end. But some Hungarians say the democratic gains of 1989 are threatened by the ruling Fidesz party, while the ultranationalist Jobbik party is pulling the country even further right.
Gulnaz and Salima, two young Kyrgyz women, each went abroad to pursue a job offer, only to be abused, threatened, and forced into prostitution by their so-called employers. They are among countless Kyrgyz women who have become the victims of human trafficking.
Hundreds of Islamist fighters have traveled from Central Asia to Syria to swell the ranks of Islamic State militants. Governments which have been fighting home-grown militant movements since the fall of the Soviet Union now fear a new threat to their own security.
Former Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky has relaunched his Open Russia Internet project with the aim of influencing Russia "through political means." He discussed his vision with Voice of America (VOA) correspondent Aleksandr Panov.
As growing numbers of displaced people flee the conflict in eastern Ukraine, many find that an earlier atmosphere of solidarity has significantly cooled. In western cities, some landlords are refusing to rent apartments to IDPs, claiming that the displaced are taking advantage of relief efforts.
Despite broad antidiscrimination laws passed a decade ago, Roma in Slovakia continue to feel the effects of years of institutionalized segregation.
Ukrainian troops on the front line in Chernokhino, eastern Ukraine, reported coming under mortar and artillery attack despite the cease-fire. Speaking on September 30, they said they had suffered two dead and more than 10 wounded over the previous 10 days. (RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service)
The members of Afghanistan' national cycling team face frequent criticism and even violence from men who consider their behavior to be un-Islamic. But that hasn't deterred them from training hard, competing abroad, and encouraging other young women to exercise their hard-won freedoms.
American political scientist Francis Fukuyama says the time has come to "supply serious military equipment" to Ukraine. During a visit to Tbilisi, he spoke with RFE/RL's Georgian Service Bureau Chief Marina Vashakamdze about his views on Russia's strategy as its troops move into eastern Ukraine.
As Ukrainian forces fought pro-Russian separatists just 20 kilometers east of Mariupol, a strategic port city on the Azov Sea, about 5,000 people gathered in the city's center for a peace rally on September 4. The demonstrators sang the Ukrainian national anthem and chanted "Glory to Ukraine! Glory

Russia's ban on many Western food imports has driven up prices in the country's grocery stores. But not all Muscovites are concerned; some haven't noticed, and some think Russia can easily weather the economic storm.
In Latvia, some 13 percent of the population are Russian-speaking noncitizens without the right to vote.
Gulnara Khamzina, a restaurant owner in Kazan, the capital of the Russian republic of Tatarstan, says that Moscow's sanctions on imported Western foods are already affecting her business.
Azerbaijanis living near the Armenian border recorded a brief video of an Armenian man who had wandered into their village on August 7. The villagers told RFE/RL's Azerbaijani Service that they called the military, who came and detained the unarmed man, identified as 31-year-old Karen Petrosyan.
Taliban militants have been gaining ground in Afghanistan's Jowzjan Province on the border with Turkmenistan. Ethnic Turkmen residents say there are no government forces there to protect them, so they have persuaded a 65-year-old former warlord to lead a militia against the Taliban.
A Ukrainian soldier died in June during an ambush by separatists in eastern Ukraine. At the same time, a separatist fighter posted social media messages bragging about the deaths of Ukrainian soldiers caught in an ambush. Days later, the rebels sent the dead soldier's mother a letter.

Shortly before the July 1995 massacre of Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica, Bosnian Serb commander Ratko Mladic appeared on television reassuring civilians, patting a boy's head, and giving chocolates to children. The boy he met, Izudin Alic, remembers that day as the last time he would see his father.
The Crimean peninsula has traditionally thrived on tourism along its Black Sea coast. But after Russia's annexation of the region in March, the number of tourists has plummeted, leaving restaurants, hotels, and tourist agencies struggling to survive. (RFE/RL)
One of the most notorious Russian epithets involves an unpleasant sentiment involving someone's mother -- a phrase that utilizes one of the most pungent sounds in the Russian language, "yo." Russian speakers have invented literally hundreds of G-rated ways to convey the sound without the sentiment.
On June 28, 1914, Bosnian Serb revolutionary Gavrilo Princip assassinated the heir to Austria-Hungary's throne in Sarajevo, setting in motion events that led to the start of World War I. Princip was imprisoned in a fortress near Prague. A historian describes the assassin's torturous years there.
Veteran Crimean Tatar leader Mustafa Dzhemilev, who has been barred from returning to his homeland after Russia's annexation of Crimea, says Moscow is relying "on the old Soviet policy of dividing the Crimean Tatars."
Tattoo parlors, once a rarity in Iraq, are increasingly common on Baghdad streets as young men seek out fashionable new looks. But there's a darker side to the trend.

T-shirts featuring Russian President Vladimir Putin's image have gone on sale at the GUM department store near the Kremlin in Moscow. The campaign was organized by a pro-Kremlin group called "Vsyo Putyom" ("It's All Right"), a pun on the Russian leader's name.
An activist recently released from rebel captivity in Donetsk says pro-Russian insurgents occupying the regional state security headquarters make their captives do menial work.

Spotlight Recipe: Marinated Feta & Olive Skewersby Kristine Brabson in Healthy Recipes, January 17, 2009
I love cheese. Period. And feta ranks right up there at the top of my favorite cheese list. In this tasty appetizer, the Greek cheese gets an unusual twist — it's marinated in a zesty orange juice blend before pairing up with its natural soul mate, the olive, cucumber and a bit of mint.

Had this at a girlfriend's house. It was totally awesome. So simple but yet the flavors all complimented each other. Will serve again and again!!!!
What type of Feta cheese did you use ? I attempted the recipe using the Feta that we are accustomed to (Dodonis) – it is too buttery and breaks when I attempt to put it on the skewer, any suggestions ?

Mad Tinkering
In the
Untamed Empires
, the years after the
Pulse War
were a desperate struggle for survival. The
sucked all the
from the global power grid, and since nearly all technology used Pulse as a power source, nothing worked any more.
As the years went by, scientists started to work on getting the best technology working that they could. By Yr150, the first steam-powered devices were appearing, and it didn't take long for people to take some scrap
from a broken
of the War years, augmenting the technology. These were the mad tinkerers, as they became known, the dangerous experimental fringe of academic science.
Science And Mad Science
the famed philosopher, social commentator and scientist Zachi Da Benecasa (Yr174 - Yr249) wrote:
Of the
Celestium Empires
' many imports to the
Setward Isles
, the one with the greatest impact has been steam-based technology. Although the standard ship of the line and musket work exactly as one would expect them to, experimental devices full of whirring cogs and gizmos have quickly opened up the land's secret horizons to great changes. Steam-powered digging, diving, and chess-playing machines have progressed past the 'blowing-up dangerously' stage to the much more useful stage of 'occasionally blowing up while still providing useful functions'.
Most steam technology rests in the hands of engineers trained in the far-off
New World
, although local tinkerers with less academic understanding of the craft are on the rise. These homegrown mechanists modify the shining brass and rivets tested in grand academies with bits of rope, leather, and other scavenged material. Often this jury-rigged steam tech is inscribed with signs of spiritual significance and decorated with feathers and garish paint to the point that it's unrecognizable as a tool of man. Ever since the Glass Kraken incident six years ago, local governors have been under pressure to crack down on these upstarts. Like most calls from above, however, they have been widely ignored.
Science and steam tech change the world on a daily basis, constantly coming up with new and impressive solutions to problems you never knew you had. There is one category of scientist, though, which gets treated warily even by their peers… those who fuse Celestium into experimental steam devices. The results can be truly remarkable, but are just as likely to leave a truly remarkable crater in the ground. 'You don't have to be mad to work here,' the sign above the workshop door reads, 'but you do need to be flame resistant and have a well-written will'.
These people distill Celestium tinctures and lotions with random ingredients, using themselves as test subjects. They take Artifacts and plug them into house-sized automatons, just to see what happens. And every one of the Celestium Empires has secret labs of these madmen trying to get the best hybrid technology before their rivals. Hence why so much effort goes into finding Celestium.
Composed of a dizzying array of knobs, levers and cranks around a core of lost technology, the results of these tinkerings have a fearful reputation. And typically the ability to vaporize a small town or turn the entire populace into mindless zombies. Imperial laboratories are well monitored and an ocean away… it's the maverick inventor genius who moves to the Setward Isles to get away from the scrutiny of the empires who's the real problem for the locals.
Mad Tinkering In The Varlinian Soke
Varlinian Soke
was a particularly interesting place for tinkerers. Church doctrine stated that Celestium could only be used for works of art glorifying Trinity
and the
, but a small number of scientific-minded clergy found a way to use Celestium in more than statues and icons. After all, they reasoned, doesn't a well-formed
with a hull shaped by the most divine of mathematics and crewed by the righteous celebrate Rokar
and Wara
, the twin Avatars of craftsmen and creativity?
With such a narrow focus on perfection, Church scientists worked at a slower pace and more methodically than their secular brothers. As a result, their efforts tended to be more pleasing and user-friendly. On the downside, advanced technology was incredibly difficult to find in land governed by the Soke and even more expensive than elsewhere. On a more personal level, any up-and-coming mechanist with an idea was in for a long, boring series of debates and hearings before being allowed to build it.

Education Matters: The cost of special education: Part Two
By Marsha Sutton
The cost of providing special education services can be up to 20 percent of a school district's entire budget, as discussed in last week's column. In the San Dieguito Union High School District, special education costs can be:
•up to $15,000 per student for transportation
•from $83,000 to $135,000 per child for placement in residential programs
•$88,000 per child to provide outpatient mental and physical health services
•$35,000 per child for tuition to private, specialized San Diego County day schools
•about $40,000 per aide for instructional assistants, often one-on-one
•about $65,000 in average salaries for specially trained classroom teachers
Special education students deserve to have services to meet their unique needs, just as other students receive programming to suit their interests, and no one denies this right. Yet the high cost of providing services that are legally required yet unfunded by federal and state authorities leaves already squeezed school districts struggling to pay.
Last school year, special education cost San Dieguito about $19 million, a number that's expected to rise again this year if the pattern holds true.
To reduce costs and improve services for special education students, SDUHSD has developed a unique plan to open "a school within a school" in the district next fall.
This school would accommodate students who are currently being transported at school district expense to and from home every day to attend non-public schools throughout San Diego County.
The cost to provide educational services for these students, 42 of them in 2010-2011, was nearly $1.5 million, without transportation. Add another $630,000, at $15,000 per student, when transportation is factored in.
Although there are expenses associated with implementing the new program, bringing these kids back to a district school would save a good chunk of the $2.13 million the district now spends on tuition and transportation for this group of students.
"It's pretty clear we've got a lot of kids who need lots of support that costs lots of money, and our aim is to find a way to do it closer to home, more efficiently and with our own professionals," said Rick Schmitt, SDUHSD's associate superintendent of educational services.
The conventional wisdom, he said, is that school districts are not equipped to handle severely disabled, emotionally disturbed students. "We believe we are and are going to try to bring back some students to programs where we feel we can run them equal or better than the private programs for much less cost," he said.
An in-house class saves money in two ways: it eliminates tuition to expensive private schools and lowers transportation costs.
The district would still need to transport many of these kids to and from school, but the distance would be far less, reducing the cost. And the money the district would save on special day school tuition well exceeds what it would cost the district to provide special education services, including special ed. teachers and professional health care, at one of its own schools.
As an added bonus, it allows children to attend school closer to home and integrate into mainstream campus life, even if for only a limited time daily.

About Carol
Born and raised in NJ; live on the water in Oceanport NJ with my husband, black Lab and two birds. We both work in NYC.
Carol purchased this condo in 2012
Why Carol chose Lido Key
We fell in love with this place based on its location. One hour south of Tampa Int'l Airport. This unit offers the ability to walk across the street to the beach or into town. Lido Beach feels like its our own private island. It is just perfect for us! One of our favorite things to do is have breakfast at the top of the Holiday Inn. The view is amazing and the food is good! We also enjoy walking down to the wild life preserve on the north end of the beach. The beach is public and has a great snack bar for lunch, they even sell cold beer! Bathroom facilities are a bonus, even tho you could just walk back across to street to the unit. I made an office out of the east lania where I can get my work done while I am here. Not that I want to spend too much time doing that!
What makes this condo unique
We get to see our other family memebers who live in the surrounding area. They all want to come to our house and hang on the beach!!
