Where is the best no frills Seafood in all of Florida?
I am looking for the best non-touristy seafood restaurant in all of Florida.
I am from central Florida but am looking to take a day trip in search of some of the best seafood in the state. I am looking for a place that is filled with locals eating fresh and tasty seafood. Sadly I don't know of any of these types of places aside from JB's fish camp in New Symerna Beach. I'm looking for something new, fun, tasty, and not crazy expensive. Anyone here have a favorite place to recommend?
re: askdrtodd
Try The Fish Shack in Pompano Beach Fl. You cant go wrong. Its the best little seafood restaurant that I have ever been to. Simply put it is fantastic.. Tim Hoholik.
Have you tried Down the Hatch on Ponce Inlet? I love their smoked fish dip and broiled combo platter.

re: Clarkafella
I've never been a big fan of Hunts, but I do recommend Cato's which is a just a little seafood market on Hwy 231 right before you get into town. Basically point to the stuff in the case and they'll cook it up for you and you can sit at one of the handful of tables they have inside or a picnic table outside. I'm headed back over this weekend and also very worried about how all these little places are going to fare.
re: flgrl
I have to agree with you flgrl. We've lived in PCB for 4 years and up until last year everyone kept saying how we HAD to try Hunts. Well, we tried and I was really not happy. Maybe we just went on an off night, but I don't really want to waste the money to try again. The oysters had a wonderful texture but were absolutely tasteless - it was really weird. The entrees we got were also less than impressive. It was such a bummer because I had really high expectations! I prefer Dusty's for oysters - hole in the wall but the oysters are always great.
re: kris20871
Bayou on the beach PCB. Oysters, crawfish, royal red shrimp. Give them a try.
re: fdobbs1
Charlies Fish House is good for fish, if you like Mrs. Pauls or Gortons. Nothing was fresh, the deep fry was greasy, and the portions were tiny. Never again.
PJ's on Indian Rocks Beach just off of indian rocks road, best prices they are also on St. Pete Beach but indian rocks road is the better one, not a classy joint but the food is to die for. great prices, come early by 5pm that place its nuts. so eat early then you can drive south to just past 694 towards Seminole to the Candy Corner for a big Ice cream cone with some sprinkles and some Violets candies, do you all remember them? Yummy and Sen Sen and the Violets gum!!
Check out Lee & Ricks Oyster Bar in Orlando - it's a family owned no frills oyster bar, been here over 50 years and still in the same family. They've got a huge concrete bar, you sit at the bar and they shuck the oysters right in front of you, throw all the garbage right back on the bar and they throw it down the hatch. Can't beat the prices, atmosphere or shuckers!!! Great time!
re: VWRobin
I was going to recommend Lee & Ricks. It's the best oyster dive of all. They have their own beds in apalachicola.
re: VWRobin
we went there last wednesday, 7/6/2010, they were low on oysters, they still have shipments coming in but not that day. We went to victorio's(?) instead.
Lee and Rick's is the best oyster dive and the shuckers are great, esp. brian and skeeter(?) not sure of spelling ;)
re: VWRobin
Great choice - agree (tho there is always a slight smell of Clorox it seems)
re: gatorjwade
To me, one of the best is the Keys Fisheries Restaurant/market on Marathon Key. I dream of that place.
re: Old E.
My favorite place during stone crab season, not bad rest of year either. Can't beat the atmosphere, prices and quality.
My vote for best Florida fish with the fewest frills is Star Fish in Cortez Village. Google and check their website. You will share picnic tables on the docks with new friends and pelicans. The minimalist cardboard boxes belie the succulent contents: grouper, pompano, fried oysters, scallops, shrimp, stone crab in season. Enjoy a cup of fish chowder and a cold beer while they prepare your order.
re: Veggo
My sister and I just ate at Star Fish in Cortez two Saturday's ago. Our original plan was cortez kitchen, but it was 11:30 and they were not open yet, so we went over to Star Fish. Both of us like our fish sandwiches the same way so we both ordered grouper san, lightly blackened, with american cheese. First we were impressed that the whole place is outside on the water, second, you always know your food is going to be good when you have to order it from a home made plywood bar/counter and pay immediately and third, we loved it when our food came out in the shrimp boxes. But the best part was the sandwich itself. By far the best fish sandwich I have ever had. From the lightly grilled bun to the perfectly cooked moist flavorful grouper, it was for us, "The Perfect Grouper Sandwich."
Sadly,t the following Saturday we ended up going to Cortez Kitchen (we live in Sarasota) for a late lunch with a couple of other people, ordered the exact same thing and it just didn't even come close to Star Fish. CK used to be our favorite fish sand place, but it is sorely lacking the charm that it used to have. And we were nickle and dimed to death for cheese, sauces and even to get our fish as a sandwich.
re: ellimac13
I 100% agree......
Cortez Kitchen was my favorite.... Now I won't go there.... Star Fish is the King of Cortez.....
re: beachmouse
Starfish is the last of the oldtime Florida seafood shacks. Located next door to A.P. Bell Fish Company, and behind the retail fish store on the dock, (same ownership), Karen Bell buys fresh fish from a fleet of about 45 commercial boats., So the fish and shrimp is all from the fish house, fresh and very tasty. Smoked mullet too. The largest Stone Crab Claws you have ever seen, (in season only) are a treat albeit $$$$. This is a little known treasure.
The Fish Company
725 Atlantic Blvd Ste 12, Atlantic Beach, FL 32233
Crab Claw
1313 W Boynton Beach Blvd, Boynton Beach, FL 33426
re: ospreycove
2 quick points: the resto link that popped up is not Star Fish, and A.P. Bell retails stone crab claws for usually $4/ lb less than next door at Star - just watch for the forklifts zooming around.
Try Walt'z Fish Shack in Madeira Beach. It's surrounded by tourist traps in John's Pass Village, but it's what you say you are looking for - fresh, simply prepared seafood favored by locals, served in a converted cottage painted Caribbean colors. Dinner only, no tables bigger than four-tops and a menu that changes with whatever Walt gets on the dock that day (the menu is a chalk board, and the chalk-out items as they run out).
re: Bergerman
I second Walt'z as being the real deal. I can describe it in three words: fresh, flavorful and delicious. There is no set menu instead a chalkboard highlights what is fresh and being served that day. The times I've been there the menu consisted heavily of grouper, shrimp, and crab offerings. For an idea about price the grouper sandwich was being offered at 12 dollars. I have had it both blackened and fried, and prefer it blackened. The grouper is huge with almost half of it was actually hanging off the side and out the bun. The blackened comes spiced and cooked perfectly as to not overwhelm the flavor of the fish. The fried option is very lightly dusted perfectly crispy, and did not suffer from the heavy oiled mess that is so prevalent at chintzy seafood places. The fish tasted great on a simple yeasty kaiser roll and came with some lettuce, onion, and pickle. There wasn't any sauce present which was fine by me as it let the fish flavors take center stage, but I can see some people wanting a sauce of some kind. They have a yummy chipotle mayo that would be a perfect addition. Overall, it's a perfect example of a Florida Gulf Coast beach-side seafood restaurant.
re: sunsuze
Agree, Agree, Agree!!!
re: sunsuze
Absolutely agree! Boss oyster is certainly no frills, but I went there 3 months ago and I'm still craving it almost daily! I can't get those shrimp out of my head!
re: sunsuze
The original Stinky's Fish Camp in Santa Rosa Beach is also a good pick.

i've only been once, but i really loved the grouper sandwich from casey key fish house near sarasota. have to cross a one lane bridge to get there...great outside seating and florida atmosphere!
Ted Peter's Smoked Fish fits the bill for everything that you mentioned. They feature the best smoked fish on the planet. Ted Peters is a St. Petersburg institution and with good reason. Their smoked fish is out of this world good. I love their salmon as it so moist and fork tender with a beautiful smokey char crust and flavor. The fish spread is also so delicious you will end up wishing every tuna fish sandwich around the country was filled with this stuff. I never get them (I'm too hung up on the fish) but the cheese burgers are also very popular. I routinely have out of town guests demand at least one visit to Ted Peters, and I can't blame them. This is one landmark restaurant that lives up to the hype and must be experienced. They are cash only, and it is usually packed (a good sign for any yummy place) so expect to fight for parking and wait for a table, but be richly rewarded with impeccable smoked salmon, mahi-mahi, mackerel, or mullet. You can also watch a Diners, Dives, and Drive Ins episode featuring the place here -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF4Pd-....

I live in Central Florida as well and I really enjoy Grills in Port Canaveral. Its not too bad of a drive and I love sitting outside on the water listening to their live bands and the food is always good and good prices.
Ate at Fish Lips next door and thought their food was great to. They made a great crab alfredo pasta that was loaded with crab and again a very decent price.
If you find yourself in Fort Myers, check out Skip One, located on US 41 South once you get past most of the car dealerships. The menu doesn't break any new ground, but for fresh fish and shellfish fried up with skill you can't beat it.
El Patio is also good for ceviche and seafood with a Peruvian twist. I find myself liking Mexican and South American preparations of seafood more and more lately. I especially like the ceviche de pulpo, though I have no idea if the octopus is local or not, but their cancha is also great.

The Colonnade in Tampa is one of my favorites, try the grouper piccata. Also, for the best singular seafood dish, barbecued squid at Kaisen sushi in Tampa.
Hull's in Ormond Beach is a pretty good contender. They have their own boats, and until a few years ago they were just a market, not a restaurant. I grew up in Ormond and can say that it's been the locals' choice for...geez, at least 25 years, probably more. Fresh fish and not much else.
+1 on Down the Hatch, too.
re: kagi
I tried Hulls last weekend with some friends. I posted my reaction on another thread, but in a nutshell- food very good; but the atmosphere---> the place is small and feels like a "fast food" place, which it really isn't. I expected more of a "nice restaurant" feel. But now that I know what to expect on that level, I would still definitely go back. We are also fans of Down The Hatch.
O'Steen's in St Augustine -- No checks, no credit cards, no liquor, and no ambiance, and you'll line up for an hour or more to get a formica-topped table in a tiny little dining room.
Just the best fried shrimp and Minorcan clam chowder EVAR.
Sea Critters in Passe Grille section of St. Pete Beach...its an experience....right on the water....fresh fish daily...........one of the owners also owns a favorite of mine for ALL kinds of food, Greek, American and especially fresh made-to-order seafood dishes. This is ''the Neptune Grill" in the Gulfport, fl. Overlooks the Bay beach, with outside seating.

Hate to give out my secret, but the Circle Grill in Graceville, Florida (panhandle just north of Bonifay and Chipley) has always been our favorite for fried jumbo shrimp. Their salad is simple, but so good with the home made thousand island dressing. Other seafood there is good as well, but we can't get past the wonderful shrimp. Onion rings are wonderful, too. Place is small and definitely not the tablecloth & silver type, but the food is fresh and good. Service has always been terrific. Biggest problem is the wait for a table....It can be very busy. Open Weds-Sat. from about 4 to 9.
re: HotMelly
The Whale's Rib was not my favorite, went there right after the Guy's show aired, edible but not impressive.
In Sarasota, Walt's has to be the tops. It's minimal frills (a recent refurbishing makes it a bit fancier than it was) and absolutely respects the seafood. Most fish is local, ranging from various snappers and groupers, triple tail, cobia, etc. These are all seasonal, so if something's not in season or doesn't hang around for the winter, you'll have to wait. It also offers 'northern' seafood including Maine lobsters, cod, haddock, and from time to time (again, seasonally) yellow perch, walleye pike, and the like.
Locally caught shrimp, clams, oysters, and crabs are also available.

Oh MY????? I have read the entire first page and can't believe my eyes. NO ONE even MENTIONED Dixie Crossroads???? I have eaten Sea Food ALL OVER THE WORLD. And so far as FRESH, southern style sea food, I have YET to find another place that can compare with Dixie Crossroads. As a matter of FACT, there is a REASON that there is an HOUR or more wait for a table on the weekends. Those that are willing to wait ALREADY KNOW where to find the best seafood in Central Florida. it is NOT 'crazy expensive'. No more so than Red Lobster or the Joe's Crab Shack. and another SMOKING pick here locally in Orlando is High Tide Harry's. You CANNOT beat the prices on their 10.00 menu. and they have different specials each day of the week.
Has to be Pecks Old Port Cove in Ozello!! https://plus.google.com/1076161741911...
re: Brawny
Pecks seems like a great choice for the original question. (from July, 2010!) .
Someone along the way mentioned Charlie's Fish House, Crystal River, and someone else replied with comparisons to Mrs. Paul's Fish sticks. Low blow. We are fans of Charlie's Fish House; never had a bad meal there by any means, but might not put them on the list "of some of the best seafood in the state." I would not relegate them to the Mrs. Paul's wisecrack, either.
I hope a few people discover Pecks Old Port Cove after reading your post.
In Cocoa Beach, Jazzy's is one of the best for a grouper sandwich, chowder and Maine lobster too.
Always packed with great service, fantastic food from a great group of guys from Maine.
Loved Siesta Key and tho' we had lunch at the SKOB, I bet there are some great places to chow down on endless seafood..totally dig being on the island.
re: Beach Chick
Now you've done it! We were supposed to keep Jazzy's a Space Coast secret. If word gets out about this place, the Triple D crew will show up & we'll never get in the place again.
re: cavandre
I'm so craving Jazzy's right now for a Grouper sandwich, big bowl of chowda and a cold beer right about now..
Space Coast is lucky to have Jazzy's!!!

Under the Dunlawton bridge on the Halifax River. East over Dunlawton, as soon as you can at the bottome of the bridge take 2 right turns and straight ahead.
If your looking for the best seafood in south Florida. Then go to The Fish Shack in Pompano Beach. The fish is fresh daily. Its a small place, but some of the best seafood I have ever had. When Im in pompano beach I eat there as may times as I can.. I ate there four times last week. Each time was better than last. Fantastic seafood Tim Hoholik
re: Hoholik
Star Fish in the village of Cortez or
their sister restaurant called Tide Tables.
Both on the water, and both owned by
people who are fish processors…..
Both restaurants are excellent here in the
Sarasota - Bradenton Area.
Shift there are many option in the Sunshine State. We happened on a great little beach shack in Cocoa Beach called Fat Kahunas that was very good. We just wrote a blog on our visit that you might enjoy.

Good news! There is finally a cure for that horrible disease. Too bad the cure is owned by Peace & Love, Incorporated, who refuse to distribute it because they believe they can squeeze more money out of people who remain sick, or by the evil overlord who wants the people to die off so he can move in and occupy the land. Withholding the Cure is when the cure really works and it is what people really need, but someone is keeping it from people for their own selfish reasons. Compare and contrast Manufacturing Victims, which involves therapists keeping their patients in therapy. Then there's withholding medication to keep people in therapy, or withholding therapy to keep people on medication, both of which can be Truth in Television: In Real Life, some people need medication, some need therapy, some need a combination of both, and many need neither. Sub-Trope of Information Wants to Be Free. Contrast Poison-and-Cure Gambit, where the villains are usually more than happy to distribute the cure (for a far-from-modest fee, of course), but in any case created the demand for the cure by starting the actual disease! For simplicity's sake, no Real Life examples unless you have documentation, aside from media reports on people's perceptions.

Nice presentation & it will help me to attend the Office Parties, "now dine with pride". z
Dear Colonel J H Mayne,
Thank you for sharing this informative and exhaustive guide on dining etiquette. You have practically covered all that is to be covered on dining etiquette and table manners. I have personally benefitted from many details given in. Many congratulations for the efforts you have put to create this.
I have 2 queries for which I request your opinion:
1. On Slide # 3 'How to use Napkins', paragraph 3, it says that if I am excusing myself from table, the napkin is to be placed on the side of the plate. However, my understanding is that 'napkin on the table, means end of the meal'. If I excuse myself, I am supposed to keep the napkin on the arm rest of the chair. Could you please clarify if my understanding is wrong or the napkin placement suggested in your PPT is used in a certain settings.
2. On Slide # 10, paragraph 2, it says 'If the host stands up during toast, we need to stand up'. Again my understanding is that one does not need to stand up while anyone is raising a toast. Could you please clarify about this as well.

Really a nice presentation. I'm 45 yrs of age. However, I've seen such a nice presentation first time. Narendra D.Raje
jude mayne - Member Since: Dec 2006
Your first query: There are two schools of thought on this etiquette-one you place it on the left side of your plate (I am with this and we followed the same during our "Dinner Nights" in the Army) and the second school is that you leave it on the chair-to show that the place is occupied. Since its a Sit Down Dinner -so the issue of it depicting the end of your meal is not in doubt as you will end your meal along with the Host or the rest.
Second Query: Men will always stand up when Toasting-women will remain seated. In the Army whenever we Toast The President-we toast with water.
Thank you for your comments-I am fascinated with proper etiquettes because you do not step onto others toes-decorum is maintained and no one's health is in jeopardy!! I am a trainer at heart. Please do visit my page for the rest of the PPTs

Go here on the U.S. Department of Agriculture's website to see a diagram of a modern cotton gin operation and more information about how gins in the industry work.
Jimmy Brannon squats to get a handful of cotton seed at his modern-day cotton gin, just west of Winchester, Tenn., in Lincoln County. In season, 35 employees run the cotton plant processor 24-hours-a-day for three months.
Iazaro Valdez bags a sample for classification at the Elora Gin Warehouse, LLC Thursday. The samples are shipped each day to Memphis and are used to set pricing.
Artemio Valdez, day shift press operator, guides a cotton bail onto the cart before bagging at the Elora Gin Thursday.
Jimmy Brannon reaches for a sample of cotton as it is being processed at the Elora Gin Thursday. "We'll run an average of 650 bails of cotton in a 24 hour period, " Brannon said.
Jimmy Brannon holds a handful of cotton seed retrieved from the gin stand, at right, a byproduct of the ginning process.Photo by Tim Barber.
ELORA, Tenn. -- On a drive from the top of Monteagle Mountain west across the southern Cumberland Plateau, many roads are lined with white cotton bolls ready for harvest or skeletal plants surrounding 10-foot-tall stacks of the fluffy, freshly picked product.
Those who travel mostly north and south on highways in the South might think cotton country lies toward the coasts or points west near the Mississippi River. But just over the Lincoln County line in Elora, Tenn., is Elora Gin Warehouse, the eastern-most cotton gin in Tennessee.
Jimmy and Kristie Brannon's family members run the operation, where a double handful of metal buildings are surrounded by thousands of acres of cotton.
Jimmy Brannon, 60, said he started working some at the gin as a teen in the 1960s when Kristie's father, David R. Owens, ran it at a site closer into town in Elora. It was moved in 1972 to its current spot on Limestone Road.
"I worked with him for 36 years till he passed away," Jimmy Brannon said, noting with a smile that he was Owens' "right hand" before becoming his son-in-law when he and Kristie Owens tied the knot in 1981.
The Elora Gin can clean a 480-pound cotton bale in less than two minutes, and it generates about 650 bales in 24 hours, Jimmy Brannon said.
In a good September to December season like 2011, the gin can process as many as 40,000 to 42,000 bales, he said.
The Brannons bought the operation in 2007 from Owens' estate, said Kristie Brannon. Now 52, she worked at the gin since her father built its first cotton warehouse in 1984, she said. In the 1980s, much of the work still was done by hand, she said.
A few parts of the modern process are unchanged from the days when Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin changed the industrial and cultural landscape of the South in 1793. Today's operations, however, are much more streamlined and technological, the Brannons said.
It's mid-season now, and the gin's specialized cotton-hauling trucks stream in from regional fields, loaded with "modules" of cotton. A module is a truck-sized block of picked cotton that machines in the fields pack together for transport to the gin.
In Elora, trucks deliver cotton modules to outdoor storage areas to wait their turn in the processing line, according to Kristie Brannon. The raw cotton is blown through large pipes to a dryer, then through equipment that removes sticks and stems before it heads to the company's three Lummus-brand gin stands.
In the gin, the seeds are blown into smaller pipes that lead to nearby seed warehouse buildings. Meanwhile, the cotton lint is blown into a collector, then dumped into a press and baling machine that ejects plastic-wrapped bales ready for storage in the warehouses, she said. Samples are taken from each customer's cotton to send to Memphis for classification used in pricing.
The ginning process separates the fluffy fibers from the patented Monsanto seed, which is sold as a cattle feed additive for dairy cows and for use by companies that crush it to retrieve valuable cottonseed oil, according to Kristie Brannon.
A common misunderstanding is that the seed removed from cotton is replanted to grow next year's crop, said Erin Reed, 33, one of the gin's owners. But the seed itself is highly guarded technology, she said.
"It's patented. It's like a $500,000 fine" to plant patent owner Monsanto's cotton seed, she said. Each season, they must buy new seed for planting from Monsanto, which is the lone source for the high-tech seed, she said.
During the season, Elora Gin's employees work almost constantly. All the gin's employees work seven 12-hour days per week from September to December, according to Kristie Brannon.
There's no lunch break, but lunch is delivered to each employees' work station so they can keep ginning cotton while they eat.
Reed said the company makes its money not from ginning, but from the cottonseed byproduct of the process. Most cotton ginned in Elora is exported to China, Mexico and Turkey, she said.
"We just gin it and store it. We gin for the seed," she said. "The cotton is generally sold when we gin it."
Processing the raw material that ends up as a 480-pound bale of cotton usually generates about 620 pounds of seed, she said.
"If the seed price is above what the ginning costs, the customers get a rebate," she said. "If the ginning costs more than what the seed costs, we eat the loss."
Watching the gin spill fluffy cotton lint and seed into the collection systems, Jimmy Brannon said the cotton business "gets in your blood" and the work is usually satisfying.
"There are times when you just want to throw your hands up," he said. "That goes with it. But it's enjoyable. It really is."

""It's patented. It's like a $500,000 fine" to plant patent owner Monsanto's cotton seed, she said. Each season, they must buy new seed for planting from Monsanto, which is the lone source for the high-tech seed, she said."
Did that sentence make anyone raise an eyebrow? Using your own seeds to replant next year's crop has been the way this country's farms supplied food for themselves and the rest of the country for hundreds of years. Monsanto has changed all of that. If you do your research, you will find Monsanto owns the vast majority of ALL seeds in this country. And, they are "modifying" the genetic structure of most seeds (to presumably make them produce better, bigger crops but we have no idea what can go wrong in the long-term when we mess with Mother Nature) and changing the genes allows them to patent something like a cotton seed. It also allows them to require that you continue to spend huge amounts to keep buying seeds so they get richer. It will get to the point where there is a scarcity of "non-hybrid, non-GMO" seeds that anyone can use to grow their own food, collect the seeds from their crop to use next year, and therefore be self-sustainable. This is a huge problem as it could result in the entire population being required to buy from Monsanto to simply plant a garden-and facing huge fines if they dare to use a seed from a plant they have grown. Monsanto has all but eliminated farms of any real size by buying land right next door and then suing the farm after a few years because some of their patented seeds have been carried by the wind and mixed in with the farmer's crop. Monsanto sues and wins, time after time. Sometimes they reach a deal where the farmer agrees to pay a hefty fine and only use Monsanto seeds thereafter - paying exorbitant prices for seeds year after year because they cannot use seeds from their crops. I highly recommend stocking up on non-hybrid, non-GMO seeds - not only are you buying insurance that you will have your own food, but you could make a lot of money selling your seeds to others. Until Monsanto shuts you down, of course. Just "Google" the company and you'll learn a great deal about the dangers of Monsanto. The Institute for Responsible Technology (http://responsibletechnology.org/) explains the danger of genetically modified seeds (to our health as well as our economy) and GMWatch (http://gmwatch.org/) is another good source. Find a good source for non-GMO, non-hybrid seeds and stock up on every seed you can - it is a wise investment.
Minddoc....there is so much more to this than you know. It's all about the MONEY!

"This book is not about accountability!!!!"
This audio book has nothing to do with accountability - AT ALL!!!! It is all about family owned businesses and how it is better able to survive economic challenges as opposed to traditional businesses. In fact the word accountability is not mentioned at all in this audio book. So if you are looking for a book on accountability this is not it. The title and content is totally misleading!!!

Honda offers Motion Adaptive Electric Power Steering (EPS)
By Jack Martin
September 6, 2008
Honda's new Legend, which went on sale in Japan yesterday, features a new technology which has been dubbed "Motion Adaptive Electric Power Steering" (EPS). It's a new driving stability technology which initiates steering inputs that prompt the driver to steer in the correct direction during cornering and in slippery road conditions. Motion Adaptive EPS is also planned for implementation on other models such as the new Odyssey and the new Accord series, both scheduled for release in Japan in the near future.
Motion Adaptive EPS works with Honda's Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) and Electric Power Steering, using vehicle speed and steering angle data to provide finely tuned steering inputs. Motion Adaptive EPS detects instability in slippery road conditions both during cornering and under braking and automatically initiates steering inputs aimed at prompting the driver to steer in the correct direction. This new advanced technology supports the driver's action in operating the vehicle more safely and comfortably.
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) combines Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) and Traction Control System (TCS) with sideslip control.Share

If These Walls Could Talk Lyrics - Celine Dion
Can you keep a secret?
These walls keep a secret
That only we know
But how long can they keep it?
'Cause we're two lovers, we lose control
We're two shadows
Chasing rainbows
Behind closed windows
Behind closed doors
If walls could talk
Oooh... they would say I want you more
They would say
Hey...ever felt like this before?
That you'll always be the one for me
If walls had eyes
Mine...they would see the love in sight
They would see
Me...in your arms in ecstasy
And with every move they'd know I love you so
Two people making memories
Just too good to tell
These arms are never empty(?)
When we're lying where we fell
We're painting pictures
Making magic
Taking chances
Making love
When I'm feeling weak
You give me wings
When the fire has no heat
You light it up again
When I hear no violins
You play my every string
Stop the press
Hold the news
The secret is safe between me and you
Can you keep a secret?
[Repeat Chorus]
I love you so
Ooooh I love you baby
Ooooh baby
Love you love you love you so honey
Love you love you love you so
In your arms in ecstasy
If they could only see you and me baby
Just you and me baby

About Paul Agius
I am a retired professional engineer. I rent out my house during the months when I visit my family overseas.
I have two cats and a dog, which will NOT be in the house during the rental period.
We clean the house thoroughly before we rent it out, but we cannot gaurantee that some hairs might not be present.
If you are alergic to animals, it is advisable NOT to book.
Paul Agius purchased this house in 2002
Why Paul Agius chose Manilva
The house is a genuine family home, very close to the beach, and yet very safe for children.
I chose this location because, whilst it is very close to a sizeable town, with all the shops and amenities available, it has a very rural feeling to it.
What makes this house unique
The location is quite with very friendly neighbours. Access to the motorway is 50 mtrs away enabling access to all parts of the Malaga province.

Latihan (from Indonesian latihan kejiwaan; "spiritual exercise") is a form of spiritual or psychological practice. It is the principal practice of the Subud organization.[1][2] It is also the basis of a newer group called AIR: Active Inner Response. Info at www.air.eu.com
The origin of the practice is associated with Javanese "kebatinan" or "kejawen" traditions.[3]
Latihan kejiwaan, or simply the latihan means "spiritual exercise", or "training of the spirit".[4] This exercise is not thought about, learned or trained for; it is unique for each person and the ability to 'receive' it is passed on by being in the presence of another practicing member at the 'opening'. About twice a week, Subud members go to a local center to participate in a group latihan, men and women separately.[5] The experience takes place in a room or a hall with open space. After a period of sitting quietly, the members are typically asked to stand and relax by a 'helper', who then announces the start of the exercise.[6][7]
Practitioners are advised to surrender to the Divine and follow 'what arises from within', not expecting anything in advance. One is recommended not to focus on any image or recite any mantra, nor to mix the exercise with other activities like meditation or use of drugs, but simply to intend to surrender to the Divine or the will of God. (The term "God" is used here with a broad and inclusive intention. An individual is at liberty to substitute interpretations that they feel more in tune with.) One is not to pay attention to others in the room, each of whom is doing his or her own latihan.[7] During the exercise, practitioners may find that, in terms of physical and emotional expression, they involuntarily move, make sounds, walk around, dance, jump, skip, laugh, cry or whatever.[8][6] The experience varies greatly for different people, but the practitioner is always wholly conscious throughout and free to stop the exercise at any time.
Outwardly the exercise often manifests as physical movement and vocal activity that vary greatly both over time and between individuals.[7] It proceeds spontaneously, involving neither teacher nor method,[1] being unstructured except for basic rules relating to group practice.[6]
Personal capacity to engage in latihan the first time, in what is called the "opening", is said to be transmitted by the presence of experienced practitioners.[1] It usually entails an attitude of patience and trust, typically with some preparatory relaxation of thoughts and feelings,[9] and involves the whole human being, not just body, emotions, mind or any other single facet.[10]
It is regarded by practitioners as being of spiritual or of psychological benefit, depending on personal interpretation and individual experience[11][8][12] though apparently it does not affect all practitioners and may affect some detrimentally.[13][14] Many practitioners see latihan as a way of direct access to a mystical experience that is compatible with a busy modern lifestyle.
Accounts of first encounters with latihan are found in the anthology Antidote: Experience of a Spiritual Energy (1998) by anthropologist and Subud member Salamah Pope.
While the opinions of Subud's founder are often cited among its members,[7] the organization officially endorses no doctrine regarding latihan's nature or benefits.[8] Practitioners tend to agree that the exercise is best experienced with minimal theorizing or mental imagery.[15]
Although latihan can be practiced alone,[7] Subud arranges regular practice in group settings. Normally sessions are held two or three times a week and last up to thirty minutes, with the two sexes segregated.[16] Subud offers formal pragmatic, preliminary advice in relation to commencing the practice.[7] Non-members are not allowed to witness Subud latihan sessions as they are considered private.[7]
Subud's founder speculated that the spontaneous prayer movements which characterise latihan are similar in character to early meetings of the Religious Society of Friends which gave rise to the name Quakers.[note 1]

New ways to safeguard children
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Child protection experts will be sharing new and emerging research on best practice in safeguarding at a joint NSPCC and Lancaster University conference on 23-24 May in Manchester.
The conference, "New horizons in safeguarding children: Promoting children's safety and wellbeing through innovation and organisational change," is also being supported by the University of Manchester, and will be chaired by Dame Moira Gibbs CBE, Chair of the Social Work Reform Board.
More than 40 child protection experts will be addressing the conference, with keynote speakers including the College of Social Work interim co-chair Professor Corinne May-Chahal of Lancaster University, Dave Hill of Essex County Council, and Professor Harry Ferguson of the University of Nottingham.
In addition to hearing the keynote speeches, delegates will have the opportunity to take part in their choice of interactive workshops and briefing sessions. Themes covered in these will include: rejuvenating family support; professional judgement and effective assessment; the judiciary and the best interests of the child; inclusive practice - meeting diverse needs; and surviving austerity.
The conference was stimulated by the work of Lancaster University's Child Welfare Research Unit which is led by Dr Karen Broadhurst. This builds on Karen's work with the NSPCC in relation to social work assessment in the context of safeguarding vulnerable children. The conference programme will include presentations from the Child Welfare Research Unit featuring work currently commissioned by local authorities and government bodies relating to concerns about the volume of care proceedings cases in England and Wales and the issue of delay in the family court.
The conference will also feature a number of presentations from the NSPCC. Speakers from the charity include Tom Rahilly, NSPCC's head of strategy for looked after children, who will speak about care's role in child protection and family support systems, Jon Brown, head of the NSPCC's sexual abuse programme who will talk about both the NSPCC's sexual abuse strategy and the challenges posed by sexting, and Professor Julie Taylor, NSPCC head of strategy (abuse in high risk families) who will speak about the dangers of multiple adversities in families.
John Grounds, director of the NSPCC Child Protection Consultancy, who will be speaking at the conference said: "We recognise that while statutory guidance, best practice and trends in child protection are constantly evolving, there is often little opportunity to debate the issues or share knowledge with colleagues. This conference will provide a forum to encourage innovative and forward thinking discussion based on the latest research into safeguarding children."
Professor Corinne May-Chahal of Lancaster University said "Child protection has never been so complex and demanding and professionals are constantly presented with new challenges from the internet and social policy while under intense media scrutiny. This conference will be an opportunity to learn from new research and practice with the aim of providing a more secure future for the UK's most vulnerable children."

About The Mix
It took three years (1980-1983) for Tony Montana to make himself a cocaine kingpin of Miami and get killed. A full circle: from Cuban refugee to a betrayed and receded gangster.
A cult TV series "Miami Vice" started in 1984 and was cancelled in 1990. It made Don Johnson famous. People watched this series all around the world. There is a slight possibility that teenager with a funny moustache is watching it right now somewhere in Albania.
One of the main themes in this series was fight against cocaine dealers. Actually, they ruled Miami-Dade for two decades: 1980-90s.
Alonzo Mourning - a legendary center of Miami "Heat". He was an icon of this team for 10 years. It took him 14 years to win an NBA title. He's now retired.
As you can see - there are a lot of thing from Miami which are temporary and known worldwide. Well, one thing is not going to die, it just evolves - Miami bass.
Laurynas Bowtie is not sure who he is - a chronicler or a guy with amnesia. It seems that he forgot what Monday is, because the mix which he has here is clearly a bootie bouncer!
Don't sniff it, listen it.
(Oh yeah, that trap bassline - Tony Montana created it while shooting his rivals with a machine gun. True story.)
