Florida is not known for its deals. Although the warm weather lets you pack a little more lightly, food, amusements and lodging prices can all have quite a spike to them. To help stretch your dollars a bit further during your time in the Destin sun, enjoy some of these nearly-free and budget-friendly options. Whoever said paradise had to be expensive didn't search hard enough, here's your guide to the top Destin vacation deals:

Cheap Destin Attractions
You can easily be gouged in the wallet with the many attractions in the area. However, with the right insider knowledge and a bit of planning, you can still get a great taste of Destin and the surrounding beach towns in the area while still keeping some green for yourself.
Quirky Amusements
- Fudpucker's is known for its alligators, but what most out-of-towners aren't aware of is that you don't have to eat here to enjoy one of the shows. Feedings and shows with the dozens of resident reptiles happen throughout the day, so you can stop by and likely catch the animals in action. The restaurant is located off of Highway 98 outside of town. 20001 Emerald Coast Pkwy
- Drive over to Seaside, Florida - just 25 miles east of Destin - to check out the local shops. Unlike other tourist-heavy towns, Seaside boutiques offer a number of cheap souvenirs and retail options, including Sundog Books, which sells a number of paperbacks for around $1 a pop. If you need a fast amusement in a pinch, stop by The Quincy Shop. This craft supply/game store usually has a number of toys out front, and the owners welcome people testing them out before they buy! With old-fashioned toys and wonderfully unique odds and ends, everyone is sure to find something to strike their fancy.
- The Destin Fishing and History Museum is a great way to soak up the oceanfront culture when you need to get out of the sun and indoors. Admission is just $5. 108 Stahlman Ave,
Outdoor Serenity
- Of the Destin area's many beaches, one of the best is Miramar Beach, offering up all the charms of a small beach town and the convenience of a big one. East of Destin
- Today's Florida Panhandle is filled with condos and modern developments, but the true beauty of the state comes into full view at Topsail Hill Preserve State Park. Entry is four dollars per car, yet the area remains remarkably uncrowded. You and your vacationing buddies can sink your toes into the 3.2 miles of pristine white sands here, or venture over one of the many dunes that form picturesque hillsides. Boats are not allowed, so all you'll hear are the sounds of the softly crashing waves and local wildlife - which includes the rare snowy plovers and eastern bluebirds. Whether you're in the mood to hike, sunbathe or comb the beach for the next addition to your shell collection, this is the most peaceful place in the area to do it. 7525 W Scenic Highway 30A, Santa Rosa Beach, FL
- Fort Walton's Boardwalk offers access to several great seaside picnic spots that are feet from the surf - although being this close to the waves can make it hard to wait 30 minutes after eating to swim. Volleyball nets located along beach provide a great place to join an impromptu game. 1450 Miracle Strip Pkwy SE, Fort Walton Bch, FL
- One of Destin's cheapest amusements only costs the price of a loaf of bread. Make sure you and your travel brood head to the beach bright and early to feed the seagulls when they are still hungry. The dance of the gulls as you toss out bits of bread here is something that cannot be described, yet always manages to put a smile on travelers' faces.
Cheap Destin Restaurants
Destin is a Florida paradise, but unlike some of the well-known areas, it has plenty of places to grab a bite for $10 or less per meal.
Lunch & Dinner
- Jasmine Thai is a great place to enjoy a romantic meal that will still fit into your budget. Best of all, this cheap restaurant offers a number of vegan, gluten-free and kid-approved meal options on its menu. Choose from authentic entrees like Pad Khing Sod or Pra Ram Long Song for around $9 or less. The most expensive item on the kid's menu - sauteed zucchini with shrimp - tops out at around six bucks. 4424 Commons Drive East #3C
- Crush Wine Bar isn't just a spot to indulge - this small-plate eatery allows you to stay on budget with delectable multi-cultural meals that include Spanish, Japanese and American flavors. The daily wine paired specials - which include Cuban paninis, blackened shrimp tacos and Caesar salad made with local shrimp - are some of the best deals in house, and usually cost around 10 bucks per meal. 25 Central Square, Seaside, FL
- If you're an avid angler, one of the cheapest meals you can get in the region is with your pole. Destin has been called the "world's luckiest fishing village" due to the high concentration of marine life here. If you've got a fishing license and a few hours to spare, grab some bait and see what you can catch! It could be one of the freshest meals you enjoy. Read more about the top Destin beaches.
- Whether you prefer breakfast at 9 a.m. or 9 p.m., Donut Hole Bakery and Cafe will provide. This 24-hour eatery serves up all of your hearty breakfast favorites, from Belgian waffles to biscuits and gravy served up with delectable bites of sausage. Of course, there's also plenty of donuts and coffee to go around! Most meals cost around seven to 10 bucks. 635 Harbor Blvd
- For a quick meal on the go, head to Not Just Bagels. As the name implies, this eatery may specialize in a number of delectable bagel combinations - including cinnamon sugar bagels with strawberry cream cheese - but is also known for its sandwiches and strong coffee. Locals love the Aphrodite or the Raspberry Turkey. 4447 Commons Dr E # 112
Coffee, Tea & Dessert
- Shaved ice is a the perfect way to cool down on a hot Florida evening, and Frostbites in neighboring Seaside offers the largest selection of flavors in the region. Try one of more than 30 flavors, like pink grapefruit or refreshing guava, or indulge in one of their delectable custard cups for $5. 2215 E County Hwy 30a, Santa Rosa Beach, FL
- Located along Fort Walton Beach, Coffee Grounz & Bake Shop is the place most locals go to enjoy a cup of joe, tea or their favorite pastry. Using only Arabica beans for their coffee and a variety of black, green, oolong and rooibos tea blends, you're sure to find your favorite morning or mid-afternoon pick-me-up here. 73 Eglin Pkwy NE #106, Fort Walton Beach
- Sugar Baby's Candy & Ice Cream is the perfect one-stop-shop for a sweets addict. Ice cream flavors like Garbage Can and Smurf are perfect for a hot day, and nostalgic candy like giant gummy sharks and candy cigars provide a sweet treat to take home.
Cheap Destin Accommodations
Destin has no shortage of lodging options, but one of the best ways to save is by opting for a vacation rental during your stay. In-town condos, single-family homes just off the beach and cottages that provide sweeping sunset views are all available for prices that are often much lower than you'd spend at a traditional lodging option. Best of all, most homes come equipped with their own full-service kitchen (perfect for affordable home-cooked meals), private yards (for a quiet nightcap) and expansive dining and living spaces, so everyone has plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy the full Destin experience. With each alternative lodging option providing its own unique style, you'll truly encounter the city like a local would.
More Money-Saving Tips
If you're still looking to keep a few more extra dollars in your account post-vacation, try a few of these tips when you're exploring Destin vacation deals:
- Destin's shoulder seasons are from April to May and September through November. Temperatures average in the 70s during both, so you'll stay warm and still be able to enjoy better rates on top attractions in the area.
- If your travel plans are only located at a few keys spots in town, you may want to forego a car and opt for the local transit, Wave. Fare for adults is $1 per ride, and kids who are shorter than the top of the fare box ride for free.
- Look for ticket deals throughout the city's fine arts venues to uncover great deals. For example, one recent deal gave members of the military and their families $10 fare to Sinfonia Gulf Coast, the area's Symphony Orchestra.
- Destin's popularity in recent years has brought up the price on many local attractions, so to get the best deals a bit of coupon-cutting (or at least online searching) is often needed. Many families have turned to great online deals to cut the price of a bowling match, mini golf game or day at the waterpark by as much as half.

Google and Verizon set to kill net neutrality
Do you like paying one flat fee to access the entire internet? Well, enjoy it while it lasts, because Google and Verizon are about to create a tiered-access internet.
When the deal is finalized, companies such as Google will be able to pay to give bandwidth priority to their services, while small fry websites will get stuck in the slow lane.
It could also go the other way, in which you pay to access certain websites and not others, sort of like how cable TV works now.
All in all, there are absolutely no upsides for the internet-loving consumer here, only for gigantic companies like ISPs and, well, Google. It's still not finalized, however, so if this sounds lousy to you, call up your government officials and tell them what you think about it.

Motorcycle ride ends in heartbreak
MELBOURNE — Misty Burton had just pulled her motorcycle into the parking lot and was waiting for her husband to catch up.
James was always late.
Minutes after she sent him a text her phone rang.
She didn't usually answer numbers she didn't know, but this time she did.
A police dispatcher told her: Your husband has been in an accident.
Misty Smith has spent the majority of her life in Izard County.
By the time she was ready for college her current employers at Unimin had found her a job at another company they owned in Jonesboro and it was there she met James Burton, who was the manager.
Right from the start, she knew the man, who was 12 years her senior, had some interest in her.
Two weeks later, her instincts proved right.
"We were locking up the place and he told me he loved me. I just said, 'Thank you,' and went to my car."
The admission did not make her uncomfortable and being at a new location and not knowing that many people, she said the two of them "just hit it off."
After a couple of luncheons they went on their first official date.
If James had hoped to impress the woman he professed to love, it hit a snag when his debit card wouldn't go through, even though the problem wasn't on his end.
"I had to pay for our meal. He spent the whole night apologizing saying he had money in the bank," she said.
For the next three years the couple dated.
One night after they returned home from a Melbourne basketball game he proposed.
"He was in the bedroom acting like a weirdo. … I don't think he had it planned out very well. I actually said 'Thank you' and then I laughed and said, 'I'm joking.'"
On March 12, 2005, the couple wed at Timber Ridge Lodge in Charlotte.
It was his idea to move back to Melbourne. Misty wasn't as excited about the idea, but James, who was from Helena, had developed a love for the hills so they moved back to her childhood home.
"We rode dirt bikes, motorcycles. We did everything together. We liked all the same things and we were friends."
During their eight years of marriage, he had been adamant about wanting a child and she was still unsure about being ready to start a family.
"His main goal was to have a child," Misty said.
After three pregnancy tests she dried her mixed-emotion tears in the bathroom where she worked and called James.
He was working for a trucking company and drove into another one of their trucks when she gave him the news.
"He was so excited!"
From the time Parker arrived, James was a full-time dad.
"He spent all his time with Parker."
He even took off work one day to care for Parker when day care closed and since he had never been fishing planned a father-son fishing trip.
When Misty arrived home she found a dead fish in the swimming pool and James made it a point to tell her he had caught it.
"He did the dumbest things. He even asked me if fish slept."
At one point the couple bought a journal thinking they would jot down things for Parker and it was James who wrote how they live by a water tower and the address so one day, long into the future, his son could return to relive those memories.
"Most men don't write. He sat down and wrote three or four pages telling Parker what a gift he was."
James was notorious for making memories. She would later find 1,200 photos on his phone and 300 videos.
Sept. 7, 2013.
The family was heading to Blanchard Springs for the day so a friend could take family portraits.
Parker was in a friend's car and excited about getting to tour the caverns and wanted to "see the bats." He was asleep when the car stopped at the Mountain View McDonald's. She sent a text to let James know they had stopped, but he never got that text.
Both Misty and James were riding bikes and she liked to ride slow and he would later catch up to her.
On this day, he was only a couple minutes behind her.
Within a few minutes dispatch was telling her there had been a wreck and they were unsure of his location. She could hear him telling dispatch that she was "on a bike."
Misty left Parker with her friend and headed back. When she arrived at the accident scene they were loading James onto an ambulance.
"Nobody thought it was as bad as it was. He was fully aware and talking. They knew he had a broken arm and he said his insides were hurting."
The decision was made to meet the helicopter at the Stone County Medical Center which was only a couple miles away.
"He was in a lot of pain. He kept saying he was dying, he was sorry and he loved me over and over."
But Misty still thought there would be a happy ending.
After all, she had long ago labeled her husband a hypochondriac. This was the same man who got sick on their wedding day and looked pale in all their wedding photos and couldn't drive from Jonesboro to Melbourne without getting nauseous.
But she could also see it in his eyes: "He knew things were not right."
As they were loading him up for transport he yelled, "I'm not gonna make it."
Within minutes he went into cardiac arrest and the helicopter returned.
Medical personnel worked on him for an hour, the 32-year-old widow said.
"I know they tried. They did what they could."
The support has been overwhelming.
"I am so thankful to all these people who care."
With no insurance or burial policy, the bills just keep coming and medical costs are in the thousands.
And she is grateful for her employers at Wade's Heating and Cooling who have helped support her through the ordeal.
"He would have been amazed at how many people attended his funeral," she said.
And while she deals with her own grief she knows her little boy is constantly missing his father.
"James took over everything. When Parker was sick he was wanting his daddy."
In an effort to help him understand she has read him all kinds of stories and even bought the children's version of "Heaven is for Real."
At one point Parker asked, "Mom, why do you keep reading me all these books about Heaven? I know."
One morning on the ride to school he was looking out the window and up at the sky. These days, she said, Parker looks at the sky a lot.
But on this particular one he turned his eyes toward heaven and told her, "Everything just looks different now that Daddy's gone."

"This was the perfect invitation for our graduation pig picking. The color of the invitation matched the color of her tank top. I could not have asked for anything better. Everyone has asked where I got them from, they are interested. I will definitely use your products again."
"I started my search for announcements on google and I stumbled upon tinyprints. Within a few minutes, I fell in love with the Spring Grad design, had chosen my wording, and saved the project so I could show my mother! The order arrived when it was supposed to and I can't wait to mail them out! Definitely recommending this to my younger family members for their graduation announcements!"
"This card drew rave reviews from friends and family, who found it a fun and flirty change from the usual invite. The background colors set off a black and white photo beautifully. The card stock far exceeded what I expected, considering the pricing. It was a superb value. No one would be disappointed with this design."
"I ordered the Spring Grad invitations looking for something different than most grads. When I received my product I was more than happy with the quality, but I realized my venue had provided me with the wrong address. I called the customer service and was amazed at the compassion and compensation. My real invitations were sent at rushed delivery at no extra cost to me. They got to all the guests on time and I received many compliments in return. I would definitely order from Tiny Prints in the future! Not only is their quality top-notch at an affordable price, but their customer service is above and beyond other companies I have worked with."
"I ordered these cards as graduation/grad party invites and I LOVED them! The paper is thick, so it doesnt bend like normal cards, but not too thick. It was just right. All of my friends and family thought they were so pretty! I have one on my refridgerator, and each of my friends has mine on theirs as well. Thanks Tiny Prints!"

Roselle Fire Department Demonstrates Life-Saving Value & Effectiveness Of Fire Sprinklers In Home Fire Structure Burn
ORLAND PARK, Ill., March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- On Thursday, March 14, Roselle fire crews, with assistance from Bloomingdale Fire Protection District firefighters and the nonprofit Northern Illinois Fire Sprinkler Advisory Board (NIFSAB/NFSA), conducted an educational home fire sprinkler demonstration in a home acquired for structure burns for fire training. Simulated candle fires were set in two rooms of the home, which were similarly furnished with couches, chairs, desks and computer monitors. However, one room was equipped with a quick-response home fire sprinkler, while the other was unprotected.
In the room protected with a fire sprinkler, the extreme heat from the fire caused fire sprinkler activation in as little as 25 seconds, which subsequently extinguished the fire with minimal water, limiting extreme heat and toxic fumes. Fire damage was contained to the trash bin that the fire began in, a window drape and a small portion of drywall. Although the floor and furniture were slightly saturated with water, they remained unscathed by the fire, and could be salvaged with a wet vacuum.
In the unsprinklered room, the fire was started in the trash bin and spread to the window drape and to one of the couches, burning hotter, and churning out black smoke. Within minutes the temperatures reached over 1500°F and the room turned to flashover, the point at which everything in the room ignites in flames. The fire broke through the windows and licked the outdoor eaves of the house, climbing into the attic. After fire crews extinguished the unsprinklered fire with multiple hose lines, smoke continued to pour out of the room and throughout the rest of the house. The room was uninhabitable. The walls were completely charred by the fire and damaged by the force of the fire hoses, while the floor was waterlogged. What remained of the couches were skeleton frames and the computer monitor resembled molten plastic and glass.

From the Office of State Senator Glenn Hegar, District 18
For Immediate Release March 26, 2008 Contact: Lisa Craven(512) 463-0118
In January, the Teacher Retirement System of Texas (TRS) disbursed a highly deserved one-time annuity payment, or "13th" check, to Texas' 250,000 eligible retired public school employees. For many retirees, the extra payment was their first benefit increase since 2001 and one that has been long overdue.
This month, however, the United States' Social Security Administration (SSA) sent letters, informing some retirees that their Social Security payments will be reduced in accordance with the Government Pension Offset (GPO) provision of the Internal Revenue Code. The GPO provision reduces or eliminates a person's spousal benefit, also known as the auxiliary benefit, and is the portion of Social Security a person may be able to receive upon death or divorce of their spouse.
In essence, Social Security benefits will be reduced because the one-time payment received by each retiree will be included in the amount of their overall pension for calculation purposes. The GPO uses a formula to recalculate a person's reduced Social Security amount based on the new value of the increased pension. When an annuitant receives a permanent increase in their government pension, Social Security decreases the amount paid to the retiree.
It is important to note, that the U.S. Congress' intent in enacting the GPO provision was to ensure that when determining the amount of spousal benefit, government employees who do not pay Social Security taxes, would be treated similarly to those working in the private sector and who do pay Social Security taxes.
This federal action contradicts the purpose of the "13th" check and certainly disregards the needs of our retirees. The TRS one-time payment was not a permanent increase and does not affect retirees' long-term pension benefits. Nevertheless, amid the rising costs of living and healthcare, the "13th" check provided some much-needed relief to our Texas retirees. This news is shocking and the Texas Legislature clearly did not anticipate the SSA taking such actions.
"I am truly disappointed by the recent news, and implore the SSA to reconsider including the "13th" check in the GPO formula," said Senator Hegar. "The Texas Legislature worked hard to authorize this well deserved check for our dedicated retired school employees, and I am troubled by the SSA's decision. Although the SSA's decision is a federal issue, I am committed to working with my congressional counterparts to reexamine the GPO formula, so that this does not happen again."
"Our retired educators have proudly served our State and certainly deserve their "13th" check in full and without any reductions in their Social Security benefits," explained Senator Hegar.

NEW YORK—The City Council has declared an emergency in affordable housing in the city. Every three years the Council reviews the availability of housing in the city, and if less than 5 percent of total units are vacant, the city is allowed to declare a housing emergency. This year, the vacancy rate is at 2.88 percent.
Given the tight housing market, the City Council is aiming to preserve as many affordable housing units as possible, Council Speaker Christine Quinn announced on Wednesday. To do that, the Council is putting forth a package of legislation that will encourage Albany to repeal the Urstadt Law, which took away the city's control of affordable housing issues in 1971.
Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer argued that the local government should be able to address housing issues unique to the city. "We are one state with many different interests," said Stringer.
City lawmakers say that because of Urstadt, their hands are tied when it comes to New York City-specific issues such as rent pricing and vacancy decontrol.
Vacancy decontrol removes a tenant's guarantee to affordable rent once the landlord is able to raise the price on the unit to above $2,000. Once a unit's rent reaches that amount, it is permanently "decontrolled" and can be leased at market price.
Vacancy decontrol has been a longstanding issue in the city. "We believe that vacancy decontrol led to the loss of 300,000 rent-controlled units," Quinn said.
The new legislation tackles vacancy decontrol and the issue of home rule. Two emergency provisions extend current rent-control and rent-stabilization programs, which are due to expire April 1, until 2012. Two home rule messages urge Albany to repeal the Urstadt Law and to repeal the vacancy decontrol provision.
Council member Sara Gonzalez, who represents parts of Southwest Brooklyn, is the main sponsor of the legislation. "By extending these rent protections until 2012, we are safeguarding the homes of hard-working families. … Failure to do so would result in our city becoming a city of only the very rich and the very poor," Gonzalez said.
In Albany, Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is working on passing a bill that will require landlords to prove that renovations they made justify the rent increase if they plan to decontrol their apartments. This will make it harder for landlords to falsely claim that renovations made are enough to raise the rent. Currently, landlords are required to submit no documentation of the real cost of repairs made, leaving tenants exposed to a loophole in the law.
Silver's bill would raise the necessary renovation cost and require landlords to submit proof of cost to the Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR), which oversees rent-regulated apartments in New York City and several other counties.

A man who fell from a roof during Bay to Breakers festivities in San Francisco on Sunday afternoon has died, police and hospital officials said.
The 28-year-old man accidentally fell three stories from the roof of a building in the 2000 block of Fell Street along the Panhandle at about 3:30 p.m., police said.
Medics arrived and took him to San Francisco General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, hospital spokeswoman Rachael Kagan said.
The medical examiner's office was withholding the man's name Monday morning, pending notification of next of kin.
However, he was identified by his employer as David Hamzeh.
Hamzeh worked at the San Francisco-based company Demandforce, according to Diane Carlini, a spokeswoman for Intuit, which owns Demandforce.
During the Bay to Breakers race, police arrested 21 people for public intoxication, one for possession of a firearm and one for robbery, police spokesman Officer Albie Esparza said.

Perfect for dining room which doesn't get heavy foot traffic. Neat & clean look to it. Blends we'll with my decor.
I love this rug! We were looking for a casual rug to go under our kitchen table. This rug was exactly what we were looking foe! The rug looks exactly like the picture. It was delivered quickly and I was able to track it. It came wrapped up well in plastic and there were no damages. I bought this rug based off review and thought I would return the favor!
This rug is excellent quality. So glad I got it, as it goes perfectly with my striped sofa and floral chairs. The rug's pattern is not overbearing or too pronounced. Also, I have a collie and a cat. I keep them well-groomed, but they still shed. The color I chose (sage green) for this rug is the perfect solution for "hiding" stray hairs between vacuums. I highly recommend this product.
This is a great rug. I love the natural fiber and the price was right for me.
I like this rug. It lays flat, so you don't trip over it. There are a few flaws in the weave that look like knots in the middle instead of a continuous design. But it is under a table, so I just ignore them. I guess it makes it look more natural, or handmade.

In Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, the grand celebrations and rituals of Jeevika and Viren's wedding have begun and tonight's episode will bring some surprise for Jeevika - one from Maanvi and the other from Viren.
More on Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai : Discuss here | Watch full episodes | Official Website
A Starplus.in source informs, "In tonight's episode both families will come together for Mata Ki Chowki. But suddenly Maanvi will feel uneasy. She will quietly slip in to her room where she will faint. Virat, who has been worried about her pale complexion will happen to look for her and will be shocked to see her unconscious and rush her to the hospital. Once conscious, Maanvi will urge Virat to take her home before anyone notices she is missing. Later at Jeevika's bangle ceremony, the pandit will inform the family that from now on the bride and groom are forbidden to see each other. Viren will not be able to stop himself and will try to meet Jeevika by climbing into her balcony." Will the lovers be able to meet? Watch the episode to find out.
Maanvi seems clueless. "I feel weak and faint. I don't know what is wrong with me. The doctor Virat took me to said I had viral fever so maybe that is it. I don't want to make a big deal out of my illness as my di's big day is around the corner. And I don't want to create a mess. I want to be with her every step of the way and enjoy the marriage celebrations. Sure I was surprised to see Virat's concern for me."
Jeevika was shocked too. "I got two shocks. Maanvi was missing for a while but later she turned up, so all was well. I feel Maanvi is stressed about the wedding and does such antics for attention. She perhaps is feeling bad that I will be married soon so is distracting herself with such harmless tricks. You know once she pretended to faint before me and when I was shocked she said – I was looking so pretty that anyone would faint. I mean, that's my Maanvi."
Viren aka Karan Tacker couldn't help himself. "I didn't know what overcame me. I felt I had to see Jeevika."
Will Viren's romantic move have repercussions? Is there more to Maanvi's illness? Don't miss Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai every Monday-Friday at 8.30 pm only on STAR Plus.

In this Saturday, May 18, 2013 citizen journalism image provided by Qusair Lens which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, shows Syrians inspecting the rubble of damaged buildings due to government airstrikes, in Qusair, Homs province, Syria. The town of Qusair has been besieged for weeks by regime troops and pro-government gunmen backed by the Lebanese militant Hezbollah group. The siege is part of a withering offensives forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar Assad have been pushing in recent weeks to regain control of the towns and villages along the Lebanese frontier. (AP Photo/Qusair Lens)
FLINT, Mich. (CBS) -- The family of a 33-year-old Michigan woman says the FBI had had reports that she was killed in Syria.
She's identified as Nicole Lynn Mansfield of Flint.
FBI Detroit spokesman Simon Shaykhet told the AP he can't comment on the matter.
Mansfield's aunt, Monica Mansfield Speelman, told the Detroit Free Press that her niece was a convert to Islam who married an Arab immigrant several years ago but later divorced him.
When last contacted by CBS News, Speelman said the FBI had reports that her niece was killed in Syria, but that official confirmation of her death would have to come from the State Department. Speelman had previously told news agencies that the FBI had confirmed Mansfield's death.
Syrian news reports say that Mansfield and two other westerners killed with her were fighters for the opposition to Syria's government.
In an earlier statement, a State Department official had said: "We are aware of the case. As we do in all such cases, we are working through our Czech protecting power in Syria to obtain more information, and we appreciate the efforts of the Czech mission on behalf of our citizens."

If you're an passion-based entrepreneur you have more than likely come to this place because you know there is just so much more for you and your life.
The entrepreneurial path with all of its peaks, valleys, hills, weather storms and rays of sunshine is not for the faint of heart.
It takes a particular set of "kahunas" shall we say to risk the creature comforts of a regular pay check and a cozy cubicle.
And here's the thing. I don't believe you are on this path to just get clients and make gobs of money. Those are simply pay-offs. My guess is that you're interested being someone "more" and you care about making a difference. Dare I say you care about leaving a legacy on some level?
But what I've been noticing lately with a lot of my passionate clients is that they've been questioning their path. They've been really struggling inside of themselves. Shit has hit the fan so to speak (yes I did swear!) and it's got them feeling a little crazy. Even to the point of wanting to give up on their dream and commit themselves to an asylum.
Have you ever felt this way? Perhaps you're working hard and people aren't answering your calls or people are cancelling last minute. Or maybe you're not feeling focused or as eager to get out there. Have you been getting anxiety attacks and started to think about the possible negative "what if's"…. maybe you've been partaking in some self-sabotage or procrastination?
Over the course of the last week, I've been intrigued by the frequency with which clients have been feeling this way and I seem to keep encountering information about "Imaginal cells". Upon doing more research I found something called the "Caterpillar Effect". In shameful simplicity, this metaphor of the potential for humanity goes something like this…
The caterpillar eats ravenously and it starts to 'die'… then some cells – creative "imaginal cells" – imagine a new future … they do some serious struggling, pull out Darth Vader moves and attack the immune cells in a primordial goo inside the carcass of the caterpillar … and then these "imaginal cells" tag team into making a beautiful butterfly and, viola, the butterfly breaks out!
You can hear the extended, more eloquent details here. http://magazine.enlightennext.org/tag/imaginal-cells/
Now here is what I'm getting at if you've been feeling gooey, messy and as though you've been in an internal struggle. What you're probably experiencing is your own karate chop moves inside of yourself and a process of transformation of gooiness. And as the term gooey goes – let's just say it can be messy and less than graceful. I would think that it's not something you care to tweet about or share on Facebook.
Now as much as I would love to help you with your Darth Vader moves, I have my own to deal with on a regular basis (just keep'n it real here). So, in the process I'd like to leave you with a few things to remember while you're in gooey combat.
- Get support from people who see you as the butterfly that you truly are
- Practice extreme self-care and make room for the goo
- Do just enough
- Just because you're feeling gooey, it's okay to keep expressing your thrill and joy in becoming the person who you want to be
- Remind yourself that through this process the new potential of who you are becoming is guaranteed to emerge
- Remind yourself to stop taking yourself so seriously
- Remind yourself that life and business doesn't always work out the way you want it to but that most extraordinary things happen in ways you never imagined
- Maintain your creative commitment to your "soul's" path – even if it's on a part-time basis
- Practice meditation; here's a free meditation audio. >> because you've never heard anything like this before.
- Don't let the goo stop you
If you're like most entrepreneurs and you feel a little off with your client attraction process, keep reminding yourself that this business journey can sometimes be tough. Most people wouldn't even dare to think about doing the solo thing. Part of the client attraction process includes stepping through your internal struggles so that you can live your purpose with passion and to serve others. When you do this, not only do you create a life that you love but you will also begin to attract clients and abundance with ease. Let's hear from you.
Ready to karate chop through the goo and attract a steady stream of clients too?
The Soul-Inspired Prosperous Practice Coaching programs can show you exactly how you can fill your practice and attract new clients to your business each month – in no time. And, you CAN do this in a "step-by- step" format, without being selly or icky, but just by being you. How would that make a difference in your life?
I created this one-of-a-kind program to personally walk you through the same steps I used (and continue to use daily) to attract my own ideal clients to my current coaching practice each month. Wanna learn more? Get in touch with me for a free exploratory session to see if I can help. Contact me firstname.lastname@example.com

Wild Horse Writing Competition Press Release - Jan. 2012
Children's Wild Horse Writing Competition Press Release - January 2012
Youth under the age of 18 have the unique opportunity to participate in the first
"Voice For The Horse Children's Writing Competition ~ Subject Wild Horses"
. Participants must include with their written essays an answer to this question: What do you think the horses would be telling you if they could speak? "The reason we ask you to do this is because horses do not have a voice, at least one that is audible and that we understand," explains Yvonne Allen, a certified equine practitioner and Voice For The Horse (VFTH) Founder of the competition website.
The writing competition was inspired by "Atticus, the Wild Stallion from Deadman Valley, British Columbia, Canada" who was captured this past winter of 2011 along with many other herd members and rescued by CritterAid /Project Equus in the Interior of B.C.
The organization's mandate is that "through education about the sentience of horses and their true needs, VFTH aspires to promote our heritage with horses from our past, present and for our future years ahead through the voices of our children and other horse lovers of the world."
This year's Grand Prize Winner will win a trip for two to the International Society for the Protection of Mustangs and Burros (ISPMB) ranch located on 680 acres of the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation. Included with the Grand Prize is a Gift Package of educational equine related material including DVD's and books to enhance any horse lover's library!
"The Lakota people once relied on and lived with the wild horse," says Monica Terkildsen, member of the Lakota Tribe and ISPMB's tribal relations coordinator. "The horse was used in ceremonies, games, hunting, war and in everyday life. The horse was a symbol of freedom, strength, pride and courage.
The writing competition provides a unique and free learning opportunity with the hope that children will have the opportunity to share their love for horses across North America through their writing.
It is broken up into two age groups, 12 and under and 13 to 18 years of age and is open to children in the United States and Canada to participate. Entries are due by March 1st, 2012.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office wants you, at least if you are a student looking for a externship for the summer.
The Patent and Trademark Office is once again sponsoring the USPTO Patent Experience Externship Program (PEEP) for the Summer of 2011. Time is extremely limited to get in an application. The deadline for making application to the program is Friday, May 20, 2011. The Office has already reportedly received numerous applications from students working toward a B.S. degree, from some working toward a Ph.D. and quite a few from law students working toward a Juris Doctor degree.
In his Director's Blog on Wednesday, May 18, 2011, David Kappos, the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office wrote (in part):
This year, I proposed that the USPTO accept 200 or more highly qualified students to join us this summer, in keeping the spirit of progress alive. The team here at USPTO has eagerly accepted this challenge and has found nearly 200 great candidates who are planning to join us. There is still room for a few more, but time is running out to apply. If you know of a student (or more than one) interested in working with us as an extern, they'll need to go online and have their application in by the end of this week.
The PEEP program is one of our premier methods of finding talented individuals who are able to do the kind of challenging and rewarding work we do here at the USPTO. It represents a unique opportunity for students to get hands-on experience and truly learn what it is like to work at the Patent Office.
This program helps us identify and recruit future, fulltime patent examiners, a facet that has several implications for the program.
For more information please visit our student programs website to learn about the program. Visit USAJobs and read through the vacancy announcement for a detailed description of the PEEP program.

"Well, a guy who dresses up like a bat clearly has issues." — Bruce Wayne, Batman Begins.
"Time for you to work through some of your issues, Mr. Reese" — Harold Finch, Person of Interest.
Batman fans, take note — Person of Interest, a ratings hit when it debuted last year, returns for a second season in its original Thursday 9 pm/8 central timeslot this fall on September 27th. Creator Jonathan Nolan, the man who helped bring the Dark Knight back to the big screen, borrows from Batman for a disguised variation on the famous comic-book legend. Brush up on season one available on Blu-ray and DVD now, or plunge in Thursday before Executive Producer J. J. Abrams' trademark penchant for elaborate mythology kicks in.
In what perhaps best sums up the two protagonists in the CBS series Person of Interest, a comic-book-obsessed boy ("Astro" from The X Factor) tells ex-CIA operative Reese, "You are a ronin … a samurai with no master." Indeed Reese is, as is the new boss Finch who recently took him under his wing, and while the desaturated hues of Person of Interest bear zero resemblance to a colorful comic-book palette, this grittily realistic crime series has much in common with the recent Dark Knight Trilogy (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises). What is Batman, after all, but a masterless warrior trained in the fighting arts of the Far East?


text: 14 February 2011 Trapping: Both Good and Bad for Rare Carnivores Posted by: John Motsinger | 1 comment | Share: Too few to trap Elusive critters like fishers and wolverines are nearly impossible to find in the wild. Across the entire Rocky Mountains, each species numbers fewer than 300 individuals. But that doesn't stop trappers from trying to snare a few in Montana each year for their own personal collections. Fishers and wolverines are mid-sized carnivores that lead a very solitary existence in remote alpine forests in the Rocky Mountains. They reproduce slowly, often taking many years to find a mate and raise their offspring. Now global warming is making life more difficult by shifting their range and shrinking the amount of viable habitat. So preserving as many individuals as possible is essential for these species' long-term survival. The latest trapping report from Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks indicates that nine fishers were killed this year, even though the statewide quota was just seven animals (one district went over its quota by three). Three wolverines were caught so far this year out of a statewide quota of five, and the season remains open in one district. Seven swift foxes were also harvested, out of a total statewide quota of 20. Trapping is a relatively minor threat to these species, and state wildlife agencies typically set quotas low enough to ensure the long –term survival of species. But there are so few fishers, wolverines and swift foxes that continued trapping can have a noticeable impact, especially when quotas are exceeded. Protecting lynx and wolverines Researchers are studying lynx in Montana in order to improve conservation of this threatened species. Trapping isn't always a bad thing, however. Nonlethal trapping is an essential tool for researchers who want to know how animals behave in the wild. It can be extremely difficult to track the movement of individual animals without trapping them first to put on a radio collar or other tracking device, especially very rare critters like lynx and wolverines that live in remote alpine areas. Wolverines were recently put on the candidate list of endangered species because of long-term threats to their future. Canada lynx are already protected as a threatened species and therefore no longer trapped or hunted in the contiguous United States. But there is still much to learn about both species that will help improve conservation efforts and guarantee their survival. Don't miss this fascinating story about lynx in the February issue of Smithsonian Magazine. Join writer Abigail Tucker as she trudges through the Garnet Mountains of Montana with a team of researchers, hot on the trail of the elusive lynx. In cases like these, animals are not harmed when they are trapped. Being able to study animals in the wild helps answer essential questions about their conservation status and needs. Here's a short excerpt: "The chances that we'll trap and collar a lynx today are slim. The ghost cats are incredibly scarce in the continental United States, the southern extent of their range. Luckily for Squires and his field technicians, the cats are also helplessly curious. The study's secret weapon is a trick borrowed from old-time trappers, who hung mirrors from tree branches to attract lynx. The scientists use shiny blank CDs instead, dabbed with beaver scent and suspended with fishing line near chicken-wire traps. The discs are like lynx disco balls, glittering and irresistible, drawing the cats in for a closer look. Scientists also hang grouse wings, which the lynx swat with their mammoth paws, shredding them like flimsy pet store toys." "If a lynx is enticed into a trap, the door falls and the animal is left to gnaw the bunny bait, chew the snow packed in the corners and contemplate its folly until the scientists arrive. The lynx is then injected with a sedative from a needle attached to a pole, wrapped in a sleeping bag with plenty of Hot Hands (packets of chemicals that heat up when exposed to the air), pricked for a blood sample that will yield DNA, weighed and measured and, most important, collared with a GPS device and VHF radio transmitter that will record its location every half-hour. "We let the lynx tell us where they go," Squires says. They've trapped 140 animals over the years—84 males and 56 females, which are shrewder and harder to capture yet more essential to the project, because they lead the scientists to springtime dens." Read more about what Defenders is doing to protect fishers, lynx and wolverines. One Response to "Trapping: Both Good and Bad for Rare Carnivores" Robert Sloan March 4th, 2011 Seems like the two groups could get together. If the trappers are doing it for their collections and it's not a commercial fur trade, they're doing it for sport – for fun. Why not give out radio transmitter collars with the licenses and have some sort of credit to the particular hunter who caught the animal? It could be added to the cost of the license and you'd get more of them actually collared. Once they catch one, they have to phone in for the experts to sedate their catch, take samples, do the research and then collect their trophy, maybe actual trophies involved with a photo of the collared animal would add to the appeal of live trapping as a sport. A tuft of fur combed out to put in the frame with the photo could be a cool addition that also gives future researchers the DNA of the individuals if its records are lost. Fox hunting has evolved into a live-trapping exercise and it's been improved as sport because of it. Old, skilled foxes are prized by the hunt the same way big old skilled trout become a challenge in catch and release fishing. Reply Post Your Comment Click here to cancel reply.

I am trying hard to get caught up, since I am barely into February of 2010 {I skipped ahead for these 3 pages, because I got bored with going in order!}! I don't want to have to cram a whole years worth of scrapbooking into 1 month at the end of this year, like I did last year.
Instead I would like to have time to work on other projects like:
-Lauren's First Year Scrapbook
-Kylee's First Year Scrapbook
-Kids Craft Projects Memory Book {scanned images/photos of the girls art projects in book form-that way I can throw away the originals without feeling guilty!}
-My Memory Book {scan in or take pictures of stuff in my memory box and throw away originals without feeling guilty!}

It´s been over used and miss-used during the years, it´s supposed to be playful font made for comics but it´s been used too often in serious situations, like lectures in social studies etc. And it got the stamp to be something only "newbs" use now. I use Mighty Zero in my new comics. But I´m not gonna go back and change my old ones because of another hate band wagon XD

4 Cynical Ad Campaigns by Corporations Desperate to Persuade Us That They're Not Evil
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
This article was published in collaboration with GlobalPossibilities.org.
With an increasing number of people enraged at banks and corporations, these mighty pillars seem to believe they need to curry favor with the public. So instead of advertising campaigns designed to sell us their products, many corporations are attempting to sell us their likability. What's even crazier is that they don't seem to realize they are contributing to the problems they claim to solve.
All of the ads below were seen recently on popular news sites such as the New York Times and the Washington Post.
1. Wells Fargo
"What is Wells Fargo doing on a local level in San Francisco?" the nation's largest mortgage servicer asks in one of its ad campaigns, to which a community relations manager answers: "We're helping create affordable housing for homeless veterans." Except, Wells Fargo is also foreclosing on them. Take Benjamin Reed, a Tuskegee Air Force veteran in his 80s whose home in San Francisco is being foreclosed on by Wells Fargo. Reed served in the Air Force for 30 years.
During San Francisco's Occupy anniversary actions, Reed's son spoke out at a rally held for veterans who faced eviction in the city. He said that his parents have paid Wells Fargo $3,000 per application for a loan modification "for them to do nothing." His parents also had counsel, costing them $100,000 of their retirement money. The four-year battle "must have taken 10 years off their lives," Reed's son said.
2. Goldman Sachs
In Goldman Sachs' campaign "10,000 Women," the corporation claims to be "helping underserved women and their communities around the world." So, yes, all the white, wealthy men that lead Goldman Sachs have put on their savior brain caps to rescue third-world women. How are they doing it? By trying to provide 10,000 women with an education in business.
Their poster child is Kabeh Sumbo, a Liberian woman who graduated from the 10,000 Women program and started her own business. Before the program, Kabeh was a poor, struggling woman, but now, according to the ad, she's a businesswoman — all thanks to Goldman Sachs. But while the huge investment banking firm lauds its accomplishments, you won't hear it question why these women are poor and struggling in the first place.
As African activist Salih Booker said in an interview:
Liberia was created in 1822 by the American Colonization Society. Representatives of America's ruling elites … promoted black emigration to rid the U.S. of Africans freed from slavery. … Since then, the United States has consistently refused to accept its responsibilities as Liberia's patron. Instead, it has mercilessly exploited Liberia and its people to satisfy America's global interests.
As arguably the largest contributor to the U.S. financial crisis, resulting in millions of foreclosures and the loss of millions of jobs (while making billions off of it), Goldman Sachs needs to use clever PR to tout its goodness. In fact, earlier this spring a scathing op-ed was published in the New York Times by Greg Smith, who, according to Daily Finance, headed up Goldman Sachs' "equity derivatives business in Europe, the Middle East and Africa." Smith wrote, "I attend derivatives sales meetings where not a single minute is spent asking questions about how we can help these clients. It's purely about how we can make the most possible money off of them."
3. Chevron
Apparently, Big Oil is concerned about our children's future. No one would have guessed it. After all, there's an anti-Chevron campaign demanding the corporation pay $19 billion in environmental damages for dumping more than 18 billion gallons of toxic wastewater and spilling roughly 17 million gallons of crude oil in the Ecuadorian Amazon — which killed children. In fact, more than 1,400 people have died of cancers attributed to Chevron's hazardous act, which has been deemed one of largest environmental disasters in history. Since then, Chevron's record has not been much better. Just last year, Chevron spilled about 155,000 gallons of crude oil off the coast of Rio de Janeiro. And only two months ago, one of its refineries in California exploded, sending dangerous pollution into neighboring communities. Clearly, people are not happy with Chevron, and so what better to do then claim it cares about children?
