While Final Fantasy VII is remembered as a classic on the PS1, it did eventually go multi-platform with a PC release in 1998. Now it looks like a re-release is in the works, with a Steam version apparently on its way.
A leaked product description reveals that this new release will include plenty of new goodies, such as 36 achievements, cloud saving, and online profiles so you can compare your progress in the game with your Steam buddies.
In addition, this version of Final Fantasy VII will include a brand new item called a "Character Booster." Using it will allow you to completely max your HP, MP, and even your wallet of Gil. Square describes the feature as such:
"Find yourself stuck on a difficult section or lacking the funds to buy that vital Phoenix Down? With the Character Booster you can increase your HP, MP and Gil levels to their maximum, all with the simple click of a button, leaving you to enjoy your adventure."
It sounds like they're trying to make the game more accessible so that more players are willing to not only try, but also beat the game. The price is also set at a pretty reasonable £7.99/€9.99, which I assume will be around $9.99 for the US release.
The leak comes from the "FinalFantasyVIIPC.com" domain, which was registered by Square Enix on June 15 and discovered by users on the GOG Forums. You can still see the page thanks to Google's cache feature (just hit cancel until the login prompt goes away).
While it looks like pretty much a given with all of this evidence, we'll have to label this as a rumor for now. The Final Fantasy XV trailer looked pretty real as well, and that ended up being totally fake.

BBC News - Voice damage teacher Joyce Walters gets £156,000 payout
Should have just given her a soundfield unit.
I wonder if I put in a claim for the groin strain I'm currently suffering from carrying a heavy printer it'll succeed? Oh silly me, I keep forgetting I'm only a member of the support staff...
£11,000 settlement then the rest came later in a second settlement?
Let me get this right, she got a payout anyway but was so greedy she wanted more off of the council? Sad.
I can cope with 10 lashings of the whip in fact I know I'd enjoy it. The bad coffee though I couldn't cope with.
£11'000 for disability discrimination? uhhhh how? She got employed, she accepted the terms of where she got employed...there should have been no case...
£145'000 for personal injury? again, uhhhh how? She did this herself, as above she accepted the terms of employment, therefore her employers should not be liable for her willfully shouting and repeating herself....
How do we know it was from shouting in the classroom? She probably spends all her time shouting at her husband or her dog when she's at home.
Shocking. An adult learning centre too!!!
So it only got noisy at playtimes really it seems. I'd have just planned my lesson timings accordingly. Shocking work by personal injury lawyers, blood suckers the lot of 'em.Quote:
She started working at the adult education centre in 2005 teaching English to foreign students, and had been given a classroom next to a courtyard used by schoolchildren during playtimes.
The teacher said that, as a result of the noise and disruption, she often had to repeat herself and raise her voice.

November 7, 2012 By Louis Zacharilla
"They can because they think they can." – Virgil
The Intelligent Community Forum would like to thank everyone who sent messages of concern, called and offered assistance during Sandy's assault on our home. It is good to know that we have so many friends and followers everywhere. Your email or voice was a pleasant relief. I am proud to say that our offices were open the day after the storm, and with the exception of our Randall Barney, who was still without power in New Jersey as of today, we were mainly inconvenienced, while our Internet connections never went down. (Randy somehow has made it into the office every day since the storm. Such is his commitment to excellence. )
The days before the storm were eventful, but in a more positive way. Robert and John were in Moscow and Europe respectively promoting the movement. On 21 October I was in Riverside, California to announce the world's new Smart21. These 21 communities are now under study and in contention to succeed Riverside as Intelligent Community of the Year. This year's Smart21 is a somewhat eclectic group. Surprises include a handful of really small communities, as well as some firsts: the first Intelligent Community in Albania and our first from New Zealand. You can read more about them on the website.
I left Riverside with the city's Chief Innovation Officer, Steve Reneker, and Dr. Rick Miller, Superintendent of Riverside Unified School District, in tow. We converged far from the San Bernardino mountains and orange trees of the Inland Empire at the ICF Institute for the Study of the Intelligent Community on the Ohio campus of Walsh University. There, a symposium named after our new book and in honor of Riverside, "Seizing Our Destiny," brought ICF's mission to a new level.
North Canton, Ohio (USA) is not the first place you think of when you think of the Intelligent Community movement. However, it is precisely the type place where the re-energizing of communities is emerging.
Our first Symposium at an ICF Institute was as beautiful as the Walsh campus, and offered yet another way for us to challenge communities. The focus was education. I would be disingenuous if I told you that the current educational system, and its ability to enable the type of knowledge workforce that you and I know will be needed to create wealth in this century, has much merit. Very talented people assured us things are changing. Fast. Thanks to Richard Jusseaume, president of Walsh and Jacqueline DeGarmo, the Executive Director of the Institute, another ICF dialogue to delve into this issue is launched. Thanks to Logan Smalley of TED-Ed to Dr. Norm Jacknis of Cisco to Lev Gonick, the innovative CIO of Case Western University and a founder of OneCommunity, the table was set for a wild ride from end-to-end on this subject. I am excited about this Institute. It is taking form like a canvas. It is a progressive act, made new each day. It is a step toward the unknown, which makes it very exciting.
I am provoked by another question that has been raised by the presence of our Institute. Walsh University is a unique place, which adheres to values that are as steady, reliable and resolved as any to which the human community has allowed itself to bear witness. It is an easy place to respect because it practices what it claims to believe. As a place holding an international dialogue on the workforce, it was named one of the best colleges in America to work. One international advisor, visiting the ICF Institute for the first time, said, "This is a warm place."
It is intellectually heating up too. No fewer than five Nobel Prize recipients, including Elie Weisel and Mother Theresa, thought enough of it to visit. It represents the balance which defines the American Midwest. At one end of the campus sits a beautiful chapel, called Our Lady of Perpetual Help. At the other, which has blossomed to 21 buildings in less than 12 years, stands the Birk Center for the Arts, (shown at right) a new facility and temporary home to ICF's Institute. Soon another new facility, the $12 million Center for Transformative Learning, will rise. It will serve as the ICF Institute's permanent site.
The chapel and the Birk Center peer at each other. In between them, questions about the connection between faith, community and knowledge are asked and, as questions of this nature do, sting before they soothe. I am asked repeatedly what "ICF and broadband have to do with saving souls."
I answer that making the communion of people – we call it community – more vibrant and assured, better educated and in pursuit of its true economic and social destiny will certainly lead to places where the contemplation of salvation, in all its mystery and however defined, will replace the question I once got from clueless mayors, which went something like this: "Tell me what this broadband and Intelligent Community stuff have to do with filling my potholes."
I rarely get that one any longer. Saving souls, however, is one I can deal with. It comes from aspiring people, those who are capable of building an Intelligent Community.
About the Intelligent Community Forum

Great game! But hell... I hate those IAP. Most of the devs are going in the wrong direction since a few months now... I'd have gladly paid 4 bucks for the "full" game, but IAPs just plenty annoys me.
People are saying they'd pay $2-3 instead of $7, but if it had launched at $3 there'd be just as many people in this thread moaning that it wasn't $1, because that's TouchArcade for you.

Hmm maybe add " to garnish more interest and banter about the game, all publicity is good publicity"
Because look how many people have reared there heads to complain! I even joined this site to do so..it's definitely got people talking which is a good thing, sadly their complaining though,but turn the complainers into er non complainers and look how many loyal fans they'd already have!
A happy customer is a good customer, their the ones who will tell all their friends and rave about how good this game is.
Complainers won't.
So If this company can find a way to make these people happy, things could go very well!
Maybe not to cave at the 99c pleas. But meeting halfway at $2.99 or $3.49 would be nice.
And as someone else mentioned already, will there ever be different game modes? Or bigger sizes?
I played Triple Town for a while, it's nice. I don't get far into the game but it's still fun for me.
Not $6.99 fun though.
I retract everything I said about the IAP being minimal. The limit of only recharging up to 150 turns is so silly considering a decent game will go for far more moves. I thought you'd get 2-3 free games a day but that is clearly not the case.
I've always been fairly active in buying my apps and while $7 isn't that expensive, in comparison to my other apps it is excessive. I can get so much more value from buying 7 other apps at 99c each than buying Triple Town.
This leaves me in a situation where I either can't play this or I have to be ripped off by a clearly greedy developer. This type of Facebook gaming extortion needs to be weeded out and developers pushing a model like this need to have a strong backlash from the community.
I initially approached the developer to provide information on a coin exploit. At the time I felt the IAP was fair. It is clearly not, so now I am at the point that to continue playing I need to use this exploit to allow me to purchase more tuns.
For those that want to do the same, here is the process:
- Complete a game and get to the view achievements screen.
- Force quit the game.
- Restart it and view the achievements again.
The coins granted by the completion of the game will be continually re-added each time you do these steps. Rinse and repeat until you have lots of coins. Use this to buy more turns.
I really hope the developer rethinks his strategy. If not, I will not be updating the game when the exploit is fixed. I will just use this method to allow me to play it freely.
In the same way the TA community can rocket games up the chart (see Tiny Wings), I hope we do the same to discourage developers from exploiting our fellow iOS gamers and push this back down the charts. Negative reviews always seem to have a big impact on sales.
A friend shows me this game and I like it a lot. I downloaded it and played on my iPad. One evening and then I could not play more. Sais I am out of turns. Also I am not that good to earn coins and buy more turns, but will practice more, once turns are there again.
For me, the "lalalalalalalalalalala I can't heear you!" act going on from the devs is more damaging than the $7 price point. With a decent defense of the price point, I would consider paying it if there were reasons for opting to charge as much as Infinity Blade II. The deafening silence in regards to what is the majority of posts here and a good percentage of the iTunes reviews says the devs don't care enough to defend themselves, so why should I consider giving them my money?
Ok, I was out of turns and wanted to play another round, so I uninstalled the App and installed it again. Now I have all turns again
I've given it a try. It's a fine puzzler and quite fun.
My turn offs are the level of IAP involved and price point, and that's true for any game. For me, it's overpriced at 7 bucks. I can buy plenty of games that are just as good for the same amount of money. After awhile, I wouldn't be as interested in the game and the same is true for nearly everything else, so I wouldn't get my monies worth. It's great to play out for free.
The developer has a good game, and it'll be interesting if they can maintain some traction in the weeks ahead.
I've been on TA for a while, and I have seen a lot of threads like these. In no case did it ever help the developer to get into a discussion of price. If people dont think the game is worth it, they won't have their minds changed by a developer telling them it is. If the developer doesn't change their minds, people just get madder and madder at them.
I still think $7 is far to much (although I did break down and pay it), but I also think the developers are smart to not let themselves get sucked into that hole.

Ever since we removed the glass shower doors in our upstairs bathroom (and replaced them with curtains) it…well…needed something. It just didn't look finished. And the not-ugly but not-pretty curtain rod hanging out really needed to be concealed.
Enter: Cornice Board. A DIY cornice board, to boot. {score!}
Check out the before & after:
Pretty fabulous change, eh? I think so. (I can't believe I ever lived with the "before." Sheesh.)
The really good news is that this is a SUPER easy DIY. It's made out of foam board, y'all. Yes, foam board. Plus, if your fabric isn't pricey, this is a very pocketbook-friendly project, too.
Now, if you're a recovering perfectionist like me (recovering? yeah… right) this project will take some time. That said, the transformation is definitely worth the effort.
1. Cut foam board equal to height and width of desired cornice. (My cornice needed to be very wide, so I had to use two separate pieces to achieve the desired width.)
2. If using two pieces, duck tape them together at the seam. (I added a touch of Aleene's glue to all seams prior to taping.)
3. Cut and tape on side pieces. (The side pieces should be the same height as the front of the board; their width should be such that, when taped to the front pieces, the desired depth of the overall board is achieved.)
4. An inside angle of the attached side pieces.
5. This picture is slightly out of order (sorry!) but it shows how I first pinned the side pieces to the front piece in order to hold them steady while I taped them down.
6. Using Adhesive Spray, cover the board with two layers of batting.
7. I wrapped the first layer of batting around all the edges. To avoid bulk, however, I cut the second layer off at the edge (instead of wrapping it around).
8. Use a piece of fabric large enough to cover the entire board plus wrap around the batting on all sides.
9. Using a staple gun, wrap the board with the fabric.
10. Pay close attention to the corners, wrapping them in a tight, tidy fashion.
11. Another image showing how I wrapped and stapled.
12. Attach hanging hardware of choice. (Because these boards are super lightweight, you can use just about anything. I chose simple d-ring triangle strap picture hangers on nails, like these.)
Then, simply, hang and admire!
So, what do you think? Entirely do-able, right?
I'm very happy…until I decide to change the bathroom color scheme, that is.

Tumours characterised by the presence of the HER2 protein are found in about one in five women with metastatic breast cancer. These tend to be more aggressive and the prognosis and choice of treatment are affected. Trastuzumab (Herceptin®) is a targeted biological drug (a monoclonal antibody) that attaches to the HER2 protein, blocking the growth of malignant cells.
We included seven trials with 1497 women who had HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer in this review. They were assigned by chance to receive trastuzumab with or without chemotherapy (taxane, anthracycline or capecitabine in four studies), hormonal therapy (aromatase inhibitors including letrozole or anastrozole in two studies) or targeted therapy (lapatinib in one study). Women treated with trastuzumab were followed up until disease progression in five studies and beyond disease progression in two studies. The length of trastuzumab administration varied between 8.7 and 30 months, and follow-up averaged two years after starting trastuzumab.
All studies found that trastuzumab extends time to disease progression, with gains varying between two and 11 months, and in five studies it extended time to death by between five and eight months. However, some patients develop severe heart toxicity (congestive heart failure) during treatment. While trastuzumab reduces breast cancer mortality by one-fifth, the risk of heart toxicity is between three and four times more likely. If 1000 women were given standard therapy alone (with no trastuzumab) about 300 would survive and 10 would have heart toxicities. With the addition of trastuzumab to this treatment, an additional 73 would have their lives prolonged, and an additional 25 would have severe heart toxicity. Omitting the anthracycline-trastuzumab arms (which would not be regarded as standard of care) 21 patients would have severe heart toxicity (11 more than the chemotherapy alone group). These heart toxicities are often reversible if the treatment is stopped once heart disease is discovered. Women with advanced disease might choose to accept this risk. On balance, this review shows that with trastuzumab the time to disease progression and survival benefits outweigh the risk of heart harm.
Trastuzumab does not increase the risk of haematological toxicities, such as neutropenic fever and anaemia; however, it seems to raise the risk of neutropenia. There were insufficient data on the impact of trastuzumab on quality of life, treatment-related deaths and brain metastases to reach a conclusion for these outcomes.
We rated the overall quality of the evidence as moderate, with the main weaknesses being the fact that all studies included were open-label (not blinded), which may have affected the outcome assessments for time to disease progression and toxicities, and that two studies have not published their results for mortality. Furthermore, the recruitment in three out of seven studies was stopped early and in three trials more than 50% of patients in the control groups were permitted to switch to the trastuzumab arms at disease progression, making it more difficult to understand the real net benefit of trastuzumab on mortality. The evidence to support the use of trastuzumab beyond disease progression is limited.
It is important to highlight that, although trastuzumab is used for women with HER2-positive early breast cancer, the women enrolled in these metastatic trials were not previously treated with trastuzumab. The effectiveness of trastuzumab for women relapsing after adjuvant trastuzumab is still an open issue, although it is likely that it is offered to the majority of them.

Undergarments in all shapes and forms have taken over the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. La mécanique des dessous, une histoire indiscrète de la silhouette (The mechanisms of underwear, an inquisitive history of the figure) leads us through the fascinating history of underwear with 200 looks ranging from the 14th century to today.
What struck me throughout this exhibition was how women's bodies were deformed artificially, exaggeratedly and sometimes painfully by fashion to attain the beauty ideal of their time. Breasts pressed, waists strangled by corsets, legs imprisoned by panniers, bottoms adorned with bustles… Even though these "instruments of torture" hold a certain beauty of their own, you will leave the museum with a renewed love for your bras and panties.
Just look at this iron corset from the Renaissance. Can you imagine spending a whole day with your torso in a heavy metal cage? As for Monsieur, it was of utmost importance for him to show off his virility with protruding codpieces. I have to admit this armor made me smile and is very popular with visitors.
The figure of the 18th century woman was entirely remodeled. The stays created a V-shaped upper torso with breasts raised and midriffs tightened. Meanwhile, panniers restrained their liberty of movement and could reach ridiculous widths.
These undergarments were worn by women of bourgeois and noble class. After the 1789 French Revolution, they became symbols of a shameful past and disappeared from fashion. Napoleon took the reins of the country and so did the much more fluid Empire silhouette.
In the 1820s, puff sleeves came in fashion. I naively thought they were just big sleeves but it turns out women wore these underwear for arms to make them extra puffy.
Monarchy returned to power in France, and so did the corsets and panniers.
These beautiful corsets from the 1860s-1870s allowed women to have an hour-glass figure with raised breasts and round hips.
In the 1880s, the bustle gave women a "right angle" silhouette (or if you want to be mean, a goose silhouette). This shape combined with the corset accentuating the bosom and waist created a highly idealized representation of female sexual identity both exaggerated and concealed by the undergarments.
The 1910s saw the rise of the active woman compelled to change her role in society by World War I. Great designers such as Paul Poiret and Coco Chanel liberated the female body from the corset. And that's when bras entered the stage. But they did not enhance the breasts yet. On the contrary, they tended to compress them. In 1947 Christian Dior created a New Look that enhanced a thin waist and torso with round hips. Underwear then became much more structured.
The history of underwear as a deforming item inspired contemporary designers such as Vivianne Westwood, Alexander McQueen and Dolce & Gabbana just to name a few.
The exhibition runs through November 24th. If you're interested in knowing more about the history of fashion, I recommend you have a look at the Arts Décos's past exhibition Fashioning Fashion which really completes this one.
Merci Anne! Have a lovely weekend Blog Reader – next up on StyleOnTheCouch I have some prints from Emma Louise London, and a little fitness styling for you.

In September, Alex Rommel, age 12, saw a Bigfoot with his sister, Sarah, 13, in Hiouchi, California. Also, two men reported seeing Bigfoot in Klamath around the same time. The Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) says that Del Norte County has more reported Bigfoot encounters per square mile than anywhere else in the world. It's also the area where the controversial Bigfoot film was shot on Oct. 20, 1967 by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin.
Patty Rommel says, "My 12-year-old son Alex came in and said, 'Mom, Mom, I saw Bigfoot,' and I thought 'That's good, honey. Go out and play.' And before I knew it, my 13-year-old daughter, Sara, who is very stable and very intelligent, shot out of the house to see what he was looking at."
Looking through a pair of binoculars, Sara says she saw a large gorilla-like animal crouching by a tree and looking right at her. Her friend shouted, "There it goes!" and she saw it running down the hill. "When she came in, my daughter was trembling and couldn't really speak. She sat right down and started drawing a very vivid, and I mean vivid, picture of what she saw, and it looked like a gorilla," Rommel says. The family hiked to the area where the kids saw the creature, and took photos of strange footprints.
Around the same time, in the Lamath area, a man saw an 8-foot tall Bigfoot next to his car. He says, "As I went to pull back onto the highway I heard the most horrifying scream I've ever heard and I screamed myself. I looked out and next to my Honda CRV was a filthy looking gorilla (the best I can describe it) and it instantly ran into the treeline."
The next day, another man saw Bigfoot while driving near Klamath. "I got to about 50 yards and the thing stood up and my lights made a silhouette of what looked like a human," he says. When he got to within about 20 yards of it, the creature ran off the road and down a hill. He says, "That is when the hair stood up on my neck, and I realized I just saw Bigfoot."
Bigfoot certainly gets around, but he's not the only strange crypto-creature in the U.S. (This book is part of our great overstock sale).

Why are Billionaires Buffett and Trump Bullish on Real Estate Right Now?
When we interviewed Donald Trump a couple of weeks ago, he told us that NOW is a great time to get into real estate – and he specifically pointed to houses.
Fellow billionaire, Warren Buffett, appeared on CNBC a couple of months ago and essentially said the same thing. In fact, he said if there was an efficient way to do it, he'd like to buy 200,000 single family homes!
You may or may not agree with them at first blush, but when two billionaires (neither of whom are trying to sell you houses) both say the same thing, it's probably worth taking a closer look, don't you think?
Why are billionaires Buffett and Trump bullish on real estate right now?
1. Prices are low relative to replacement cost.
Rising commodity costs (oil, lumber, steel, concrete, copper, etc.) make it more expensive to build new homes. And even though land and labor are soft in many areas, it still costs more to build a new house than what existing homes are selling for. Until that changes, there won't be too much building (not to mention the tight construction funding).
Eventually, a growing population (the U.S. is projected to reach 400 million in the next 20 years), should increase demand to where new housing will be a necessity. When that happens, the new houses will pull up the value of existing houses. Or more accurately, competition for existing houses will push prices up until it makes sense to build new ones. Either way, it's a wave a "value investor" like Warren Buffett recognizes and would like to ride.
2. Rents are high relative to purchase prices.
At the end of the day, rental real estate is an income investment. When you can pay less for more income, that's a good thing. And with more people entering the renter population, increasing demand is propping up rents in many markets. Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad" real estate advisor Ken McElroy tells us that every 1% decrease in home ownership is another million people who need to rent. And home ownership is several points down from its peak of nearly 70% just a few years ago! That's a BIG demographic shift.
Again, the law of supply and demand says that without new housing coming to market, and more people competing for available housing, rents (and prices) will eventually rise. But even if they don't, RIGHT NOW the rent to price ratio is VERY favorable for income property investors. Great! That means we don't have to wait for the numbers to make sense. In many markets, they make sense now.
3. The foreclosure inventory remains high.
Why does this matter? First, the people living in those houses haven't yet joined the renter population. As they do, there will be more demand for rentals. And as those properties work their way into the market, they'll keep prices down. That's good if you want to acquire properties at good prices (value investing). If you're a buyer of investment real estate, how long do you want the sale to last? We hope the sale lasts awhile, so we can stock up!
Interest rates are at record lows. The biggest expense a real estate investor has is the interest on the mortgages being used to control the property. Low interest rates and solid rents mean better cash flows. Right now, the cash flow on many properties (the capitalization or "cap" rate) is higher than the cost of the mortgage (the interest rate). If you can borrow money at 5% and invest it and earn 8%, how much 5% money do you want to borrow? How about ALL of it!
And last but CERTAINLY not least…
4. Inflation benefits real estate investors.
Donald Trump told us that "real estate and inflation get along very well." Great!
What does that mean?
When the Fed "eases" more money into the system, it causes interest rates to drop. In fact, lower interest rates are a major reason the Fed "eases".
But easing also means that the dollar falls — that is, it takes more dollars to buy the same stuff (which is why gas, food and almost everything costs more in dollars).
Hey! Don't tune out now! This is where it gets interesting. Trust us, a little understanding of real estate macroeconomics can go a long way. There's a reason Donald Trump likes real estate when there's inflation.
Real estate is one of the items that eventually goes up in dollars because of inflation. But that's not the reason to buy property. Because whether the property goes up or down in price over time, as long as it cash flows, you win. I'll say that again: As long as it cash flows, you win. Let's take a look…
For example, if you put $20,000 down on a $100,000 property and it throws off positive cash flow of $200 a month, you're getting over a 10% return on our your $20,000, plus tax breaks! That's pretty good.
But what if (gasp!) Buffett and Trump are wrong, and the house goes DOWN in value?
Let's say that after 30 years, you wake up and discover your property is only worth $50,000. A 50% decline over 30 years! Ouch. But did you really lose?
Grab a cup of coffee and let's do some math! C'mon, it'll be fun.
First, let's say you paid cash. Not that you'd want to (for reasons to be described), but you may have to. Not everyone is running around with a pristine credit score.
So you pay $100,000 today. Without a mortgage, after expenses, you pocket $700 a month… for 360 months! That's $700 x 360 or $252,000. Now the property is worth only $50,000 and it still generates cash flow. So you get ALL your money off the table, still have a property that's paid for, and it's paying you each month. How are you doing?
But, you say, if the price drops, wouldn't the rent drop too? Take a look around. We just watched properties lose half their value in many markets. Did the rents go down by half? Maybe in certain isolated markets, but that's certainly not been the norm. And if home prices are dropping precipitously, are builders adding new supply? Probably not. So unless the population shrinks as much or more, then demand should prop up rents.
However, for sake of argument, let's say that rent dropped over time so that on average, your take home income on your free and clear property was reduced from $700 to $350. What's $350 x 360? Survey says… $126,000. Have you lost yet? Isn't this fun?
But let's go back to our 20% down scenario…
So you put in $20,000 (down payment) on a $100,000 property and earn over 10% a year for 30 years ($200 a month = $2,400 a year income on your $20,000 down payment). That's less cash flow than if you paid $100,000 cash. But we can think of about 80,000 reasons why getting a loan is a good idea. And more than a 10% cash-on-cash return is pretty strong. Good luck getting that in a CD.
Plus, at the end of 30 years, the tenant has completely paid off your $80,000 loan and you now own the house free and clear… PLUS, it's still supplying you with monthly cash! There's no bank account or mutual fund that can match that deal. We know. We asked. They laughed so hard, they… well, let's just say they laughed real hard.
Now if Trump and Buffet are right, and today you're buying houses below the future value, in 30 years your investment property might be worth $200,000 or more. Nice, stable, steady long term inflation of 2-3% per year — just like Bernanke and the Federal Reserve target. The Fed is COMMITTED to inflation!

Warren Buffett's real estate forecast for 2012 and beyond is extremely rosy, with the so-called Oracle of Omaha even recommending buying them over investing in a diversified group of leading companies.
In an interview with CNBC on Monday, Buffett said single-family homes, along with stocks, are cheap and attractive investments. By contrast, investments in Treasury bills, gold or simply keeping money in cash are not as attractive.
Buffett said if he had a way to buy "a couple hundred thousand single-family homes" and easily manage them, he would "load up on them" and "take mortgages out at very, very low rates."
However, he said that managing "a couple hundred thousand single-family homes" is an impossibly Herculean logistical task.
This line of reasoning likely holds true for many brilliant investment minds who choose not to bother with buying single-family homes -- even though they are undervalued -- when buying and owning stocks is as easy as a few keystrokes and mouse clicks on a computer.
Because of the absence of many of these big institutional investors in the U.S. residential real estate market, it is less competitive than the stock market, Buffett said. When institutional investors of size do enter the residential real estate market, they usually go for apartment buildings, which leaves the single-family homes segment even less competitive than the general residential real estate market.
When asked if a young individual investor should buy stocks or his first single-family home, Buffett recommended buying a single-family home with a 30-year mortgage.
"It's a terrific deal," he said. "It's a leveraged way of owning a very cheap asset now and I think that's probably as an attractive an investment as you can make now."
In fact, if the young individual investor is "a handy type," he could "buy a couple of them at distressed prices and find renters," said Buffett.
Buffett is famous for only investing in assets he believes are undervalued. He must, therefore, believe that the U.S. residential real estate market is undervalued

Rising Up: This church looks like a giant phallus from God's eye view!
The Christian Science Society of Dixon, Illinois, has constructed a church that looks from a certain angle like a giant phallus, complete with balls and bushy pubes. The "gathering place" looks like any old non-penile structure when looked up front, but from God's eye view things get a whole lot less pious.
This congregation will probably have to rethink its slogan "rising up! "
Huge penis had also been spotted by Goggle Earth on a school roofs in Switzerland.
Follow us: Facebook and Twitter
This is a very sick world! How dare man slander God by building a church looking like a man's private parts, how much more sick can this world get! We r definitely in end times!
Well I'm not surprised at the church. The church is just as sick as the people on the outside of the churches but not to worry God will burn it down soon

We end our individual starting pitcher blurbs with the top tier from the American League.
Justin Verlander
Verlander is simply the stuff fantasy aces are made of. He racks up K's (9.03 K/9 last year), he pitches deep into games (over 220 innings for four straight years) and he doesn't walk very many (2.27 BB/9 last year). He has outpitched his xFIP for the past three years and could be due to regress, but he strikes out so many that he's capable of putting up solid numbers even if he regresses. It's really hard to find any red flags other than the workload he's logged over the last few years.
David Price
David Price is really good. This isn't earth shattering analysis, but it's the truth. He posts solid K numbers (8.74 K/9), doesn't walk a lot of batters (2.52 BB/9) and good enough ratios to qualify as a top five starter. He really doesn't have any red flags other than concern over the Rays' offense.
Felix Hernandez
How is King Felix still only 27 years old? He's been in the league for eight years. The underlying metrics have been eerily similar for the past three years of his career. He's posted K/9 numbers ranging from 8.36 to 8.65. He's posted a xFIP that has ranged from 3.14 to 3.20 while his actual ERA has varied from 2.27 to 3.47. He's the fantasy baseball equivalent of a metronome. If only the Mariners could find a way to score some runs for him.
Yu Darvish
Darvish' long anticipated arrival lived up to the hype last year. He showed a wide array of plus pitches, struggled with command and posted the kind of season that most fantasy GMs were expecting. It's hard to say if there are any sabrmetric red flags with Darvish because he doesn't have an established major league track record. It doesn't look like he has any issues other than his 4.19 BB/9, but the walks come with the K's.
CC Sabathia
It's not a good sign that the Yankees decided to limit Sabathia's workload…in November. Sabathia did have a small bone spur removed from his pitching elbow, but he started a throwing program after Christmas and should be ready for the start of spring training. The only red flag with CC is his health. His average velocity was essentially the same last year as in his rookie year, so it's not like his stuff has fallen off the map. He might not be able to make 32+ starts a year anymore, but he can still produce a K/9 over 8.00 and a BB/9 under 2.00.
Jered Weaver
Weaver owners could be set up for some pain in 2013. He failed to throw 200+ innings for the first time since 2008. His average velocity has plummeted to under 88 MPH on his fastball. His K/9 was under 7.00 for the first time since 2007. His 4.18 xFIP indicated that his 2.81 actual ERA was a complete mirage. Be very careful when considering Weaver for the 2013 season.
Max Scherzer
Scherzer was one of the unluckiest pitchers in baseball in the first half of last year. He posted a 4.72 actual ERA with a 1.39. The underlying metrics indicated that he was not that mediocre. His first half xFIP was only 3.24 and his BABIP was .349. Both indicated he was the victim of poor defense and statistical variance. He turned things around during the second half of the season. His second half BABIP was only .315 and he posted a 2.69 actual ERA while continuing to deliver more than a strikeout per inning. He has all the tools fantasy GMs look for in starting pitchers and he's starting to realize his tremendous potential.
James Shields
Fantasy GMs have watched Shields' ERA bounce around like a yo-yo. His ERA might have bounced between 5.18 to 2.82 over the past three years, but his K/9 has been around 8.00 and his BB/9 has been under 3.00 while his other numbers have regressed and corrected. He enjoyed a career average year last year after suffering through a horrible 2010 and enjoying a bounceback 2011. He switched teams in the off-season. If anything the move to grass in KC and out of the dome in Tampa should help Shields and his 45.1% career GB %.
RA Dickey
RA Dickey is hard to evaluate because we've never seen a pitcher like him and he's never had a year like last year before. Dickey was amazing to watch last year. It looked like something that didn't add up. Here's this career journeyman who throws something called an "angry knuckleball†and he's making big league hitters look like bums. The case against Dickey is that his 2012 season looks like the outlier and not a trend. He was effective for 2010 and 2011 seasons, but he wasn't posting a K/9 of almost a batter per inning. He's also moving away from Metco and into the Rogers Centre. He posted a 2.59 ERA with a 3.42 xFIP at Metco last year. The case for Dickey is that he's never thrown the knuckler as hard as he did last year and he might be able to repeat his results if he's able to repeat the same way he threw the knuckler. If you think what he does is repeatable, invest in Dickey. If you don't think it's repeatable, stay away.
Matt Moore
Moore seemed to put things together in the second half last year. His K/9 went from 8.67 to 9.15. His BB/9 fell from 4.52 to a much more palatable 3.59. His BABIP even normalized from .302 to .282. He's a fly ball pitcher (0.87 GB:FB ratio last year), so his BABIP should be under league average. Moore could very well end up a top ten starter in fantasy baseball by the end of the year…or he could walk guys by the dozen and be as frustrating to own as he was in the first half of last year.
Jake Peavy
Peavy came back from a shoulder injury that required "innovative†surgery to fix and posted his best season since 2007. He'll never post the K numbers that he posted in San Diego again, but he proved he could still be an effective pitcher in fantasy baseball. Some will point to his .272 BABIP in 2012 and scream regression. Those people must not have noticed his 0.82 GB:FB ratio. His BABIP isn't a concern. His. 4.00 xFIP might be a concern heading in 2013, but you shouldn't be scared off by his xFIP if you're not scared off by his health.
Hiroki Kuroda
Kuroda just keeps chugging along and racking up double digit win/7.00ish K/9/sub 3.00 BB/9 seasons. He's in his age 38 season and he throwing a ton of sliders. The slider is the pitch that chews up elbow ligaments and Kuroda has thrown his slider over 30% of the time in two of the last three seasons. He's shown no outward signs or sabrmetric signs that the years are taking their toll on him. Kuroda is thriving in New Yankee Stadium. He did a great job of keeping the ball on the ground last year with a 52.3% GB % and posted a 2.72 ERA at home. Age might be a concern, but pitching in New Yankee is not.
Chris Sale
Here's what we learned about Chris Sale last year; His mechanics aren't that great and he struggled the stretch last year. Sale posted a 4.03 ERA in the second half, but his xFIP was only 3.20. The problem might have been fatigue, but his defense seemed to betray him as well. Sale posted a .252 BABIP in the first half of the year, but that number ballooned to .338 in the second half. The large second half number was partially caused by a 26.0% LD %. Sale's innings bump is a huge concern. He went from throwing only 71 innings as a reliever in 2011 to tossing 192 innings as a starter in 2012. That's a lot of innings on a young arm and it's no wonder that he appeared to run out of gas in the second half. Sale also put together a fantastic first half and survived the season without needing a DL trip. He proved that he's capable of striking out better than a batter per inning and he's been put on a special off-season program to help him deal with the wear and tear of the regular season. His mechanics might not be what scouts look for, but the results are what fantasy GMs look for.
Derek Holland
Holland needed a .261 BABIP to post a 4.67 ERA. His BABIP was kept low by a really low LD %. He only gave up line drives 16.8% of the time. He was a little unlucky on balls in the air with a 15.2% HR:FB ratio, but he gave up fly balls at a 40.1% clip. He strikes out a fair amount (7.44 K/9 last year) and doesn't walk very many (2.67 BB/9 last year), but he seems to get absolutely murdered on balls in play.
Alexi Ogando
Ogando will be converting from the bullpen to the rotation for the 2013 season. He has the raw stuff to post numbers fantasy GMs would expect from a frontline starter, but the last time we saw him in the rotation he had the big velocity (95.1 MPH average fastball), but his K/9 was an anemic 6.71. He's a fly ball pitcher (0.94 GB:FB ratio) pitching in Texas. He's a solid bet to wilt in the second half of the year between the heat and the fatigue.
Jeremy Hellickson
Hellickson has defied baseball logic for the past two seasons. He's posted BABIPs of .224 and .267 in his first two full seasons. He did a better job of keeping the ball on the ground last year (1.12 GB:FB ratio last year) and that was the source of the rise in his BABIP. If his GB:FB ratio increases, so will his BABIP. He strikes out too few (6.13 K/9 for his career) and walks too many (3.11 BB/9 for his career).
Josh Johnson
Johnson's velocity has been in decline since 2009 and his K/9 has been in decline since 2010. There aren't really any sabrmetric red flags. Johnson's red flags are all related to his health. He's always one pitch away from two months on the DL.
Brett Anderson
Anderson came back from Tommy John surgery…only to go down with an oblique strain. He was competent when he wasn't hurt. He showed better velocity than he had before he went down with TJS. His K/9 was only 6.43, but his BB/9 was under 2.00. It's worthless to try to draw any conclusions from his batted ball data. It's simply too small of a sample size.
Jon Lester
Both Lester's velocity and his K/9 have been in decline since 2009. His 3.82 xFIP indicates that his 4.82 actual was due to poor defense and statistical variance. He was a little unlucky with a .312 BABIP (.301 career average) and 13.9% HR:FB ratio (10.1% career average). He could provide value if his luck normalizes, but he could also provide pain if his K/9 and velocity continue to decline.
Ryan Dempster
Dempster is entering his age 36 season, but he proved last year that he's still capable of posting a K/9 over 8.00. His velocity has been in decline since 2005(!), but his K/9 numbers have been in 7.43 – 8.71 range in every season. He really doesn't have any sabrmetric red flags, but it wouldn't matter even if he did. He's changing teams, home ballparks and leagues.

Top Local Tips for Galveston
Restaurants There is a Rainforest Cafe, also Joes Crab Shack with playscape. Millers Landing was good local familly restaurant for breakfast. There is a nice public beach called Stewart Beach.
Other things away from Moody Gardens that we enjoyed We had dinner Thursday night at Mario's Ristorante and went back for the lunch buffet Friday... loved it! We also really liked China Island's buffet. The Ocean Star Oil Rig Museum was VERY interesting and well done. Get a FREE ride on the Galveston ferry (operates 24/7). We just walked aboard and went upstairs to enjoy the beautiful day and view. And we saw dolphins (at a distance)! East Beach was nearly empty and no one was collecting money to drive out there. The Peanut Butter Warehouse in the Strand District is full of interesting items from different eras (collectibles and knick-knack and flea market type stuff). We parked in a $5 lot but In retrospect, we would have parked somewhere and hopped on the trolley to get to the Strand.

QEP Resources Announces Plan To Form Midstream Master Limited Partnership
QEP Resources, Inc. (NYSE: QEP) ("QEP" or the "Company") announced today that while it continues to evaluate strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder value with respect to certain of its midstream assets, QEP's board of directors has authorized the formation of a master limited partnership (MLP) and the preparation and filing of a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for an initial public offering (IPO) of common units of the MLP. The Company expects to file a registration statement with the SEC in the second quarter of 2013.
The MLP is intended to support the growth of QEP's midstream business and is consistent with the Company's focus on maximizing shareholder value and maintaining balance sheet strength. The Company expects to initially contribute a majority of its gathering assets in Wyoming and North Dakota to the MLP. Subject to final board approval and market conditions, QEP expects to sell a minority interest in the MLP in the IPO and raise $300 million to $400 million in gross proceeds. Proceeds from the offering would be used to fund ongoing operations, to repay debt under the Company's revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. Additional detail will be included in the registration statement.
There can be no assurance that there will be an initial public offering of the MLP or any other transaction. This announcement is made in accordance with Rule 135 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As required by Rule 135, this press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of that jurisdiction.
Some of the statements included in this press release constitute "forward looking statements" (as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Such forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

Upper West, from Central Park West to the Hudson River, 59th Street (excluding Columbus Circle) to 110th Street.
Every ten blocks of the Upper West Side seem to have its own character. The 70s and 80s have their share of "Classic Six" prewar apartments (that's two bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and kitchen plus a room for the maid or domestic staff, sometimes used as a home office) as opposed to a "Classic Seven," which has all these rooms in addition to another bedroom. Along Riverside Drive on the Upper West Side, some grand-scale apartment buildings with magnificent river views perfectly match the street's name. Meanwhile, the southern bit of the Upper West Side embraces the Time Warner Center, which has some of the most spectacular luxury condos in the city, along with high-end shops like Coach and Hugo Boss, once-in-a-lifetime eateries like Per Se, and a giant subterranean Whole Foods that seems to have the capability to hold every resident of the Upper West Side at once.

Home Depot Has Free Delivery!
The materials were loaded at Home Depot. Their store manager said they had the customer sign a waiver. While the plywood and 2X4s are fairly obvious, what you can't see is the back seat, which contains -- are you ready for this? -- 10 bags of concrete @ 80 lbs. each. They estimated the load weight at 3000 lbs.
Both back tires exploded, the wheels bent and the back shocks were driven through the floorboard. The car, with FL plates (naturally), was headed for Annapolis, where the couple presumably planned to build a new house in which to smoke their crack.
