Video: Did Rays Fan Get Hit in the Groin By Dan Johnson's Ninth Inning Home Run?
There is no question that the game-tying home run hit by Tampa Bay Rays infielder Dan Johnson in the bottom of the ninth inning against the New York Yankees Wednesday night was one of the most exciting plays of the season in major league baseball.
What is in question, however, is whether a Rays fan in the front row of the right field seats was hit in the groin after Dan Johnson's home run ball bounced off of the foul pole.

Video: Cleveland Browns Fan Celebrates Game-Winning Touchdown...On The Field With The Players
When Cleveland Browns receiver Mohamed Massaquoi caught the game-winning touchdown in Cleveland against the Miami Dolphins this past Sunday, he celebrated with a group of his teammates...and a Browns fan who somehow snuck onto the field.
Watch the video as the fan comes out of nowhere to join the group of Browns players congratulating Massaquoi. It almost looks as if he belongs there, until you start thinking about it and realizing that he doesn't belong there. How did that fan get onto the field? Where the heck was security? The guy actually put his hands on Massaquoi and patted him on the behind.
With the NFL talking about increasing security at its games, it's hard to fathom how something like this could happen. The NFL got lucky here. Let's hope they look at this tape and learn from it.

Video: Taiwanese Dad Drops Daughter For Foul Ball
You would think that a parent's top priority would be to protect their children from getting hurt when danger comes their way, such as a foul ball heading into the stands at a baseball game. However, there have been some unfortunate examples recently of fathers at baseball games being more concerned with catching the foul balls.
After seeing a Los Angeles Dodger fan drop his daughter while trying to catch a ball back in June, you would hope that people would learn from it. Unfortunately it has happened again, but this time in Taiwan.

Video: Brewers Closer John Axford Does Comedy Sketch For Mustache Spray
Most people are not familiar with John Axford, a relief pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers. Axford will probably have some more attention coming his way as the Milwaukee Brewers just clinched their first division title since 1982 and will be playing in the National League playoffs next week.
In addition to playing the role of closer for the Milwaukee Brewers, Axford also has a pretty interesting mustache on his face. That mustache will certainly get him some additional attention. To show that he's having some fun with it, Axford took part in a comedy sketch that was a commercial for "John Axford's Ax Mustache Spray".
Video: Brazilian Soccer Referee Caught Fake Diving
It's bad enough to watch soccer players dive to the ground to fake an injury. However, it's even more embarrassing to see that now referees are getting into the act, such as this ref from Brazil that was caught in the video just after the jump.
It happened in a recent first round match of the first phase of the Brazilian Championship Series between Mirassol and Operario-PR. Operario-PR won the match 3-0, but one of Operario's players, George Santos Silva, was given a red card at the 38th minute of the match.
After referee Rodrigo Nunes de Sa gives Silva the red card, Silva gets in the ref's face to argue. However, instead of walking away or standing firm, the referee pretends to be a victim of Silva's punch, falling to the ground and covering his face.
It's very obvious from the video, especially watching it in slow motion, that the player never touched him. However, police were actually brought onto the field to help take Silva off the field and keep him separated from the referee. Not sure how the Brazilian players are supposed to take this referee seriously going forward.

Video: How Much Will Dunta Robinson Be Fined For His Helmet-to-Helmet Hit On Jeremy Maclin?
After Atlanta Falcons cornerback Dunta Robinson's headfirst tackle of Philadelphia Eagles receiver Jeremy Maclin in Sunday night's football game, the question is not whether Robinson will be fined, but how much will the fine be?
There's no question after looking at the replay that Dunta Robinson led with his head, as he made no attempt to make a proper tackle by wrapping up Maclin and bringing him down to the ground.
Robinson was fined $25,000 last year for a helmet-to-helmet hit, which also came against the Philadelphia Eagles (in that case Robinson's hit was on receiver DeSean Jackson). The fine was supposed to send a message to Dunta Robinson that helmet-to-helmet hits are not appropriate. Now that Robinson has done it again, you would think that Robinson will receive a much larger fine this time, and he may get suspended.
Fortunately, Maclin was OK and actually had a very good game overall, with 13 catches for 171 yards and 2 touchdowns.
UPDATE 9/20/11: Dunta Robinson has been fined $40K for the hit, with no suspension.

"Big Philly Fan" Has Nothing Better To Do But Make Terrible Video of J-Lo Song
A Youtube user named JGarzzle, who refers to himself as the "Big Philly Fan", recently uploaded a music video he made to shows his love for the Philadelphia Phillies. The name of the video is "Phillies on the Floor", a song "parody" inspired by the Jennifer Lopez hit "On the Floor", but he substituted his own "lyrics" written as a tribute to the team.
After viewing the video, however, it is unlikely that Phillies fans, or anyone else for that matter, are going to be "inspired" by it. Viewers will either be rolling on the floor laughing...or totally weirded out.

Baseball Bloopers: 9/7/11
Links to a few strange plays around baseball from yesterday:
- A black cat ran onto the field at the Mets-Marlins game in the top of the eighth inning. Where exactly did the cat come from?
- In Anaheim, Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki made a nice leaping grab in front of the outfield wall to rob Vernon Wells (LAA) of an extra-base hit. A "fake Ichiro" fan in stands, who dresses in full Mariners uniform and actually looks a little like Ichiro, was more than happy to take credit for the catch.
- In San Diego, Padres catcher Nick Hundley failed to catch a foul ball near the stands on the left side of home plate in the top of the first inning against the San Francisco Giants. To top it off, Hundley tumbled backwards into the camera well on the play. Fortunately he was OK.
- At Oakland, a pitch by Kansas City Royals pitcher Danny Duffy in the bottom of the second inning hit the home plate umpire in the arm after catcher Salvador Perez didn't get his glove on the ball. After getting checked on by A's trainers, the umpire stayed in the game.
Video: Padres' Chris Denorfia Struck In Head By Pickoff Throw
San Diego Padres outfielder Chris Denorfia was leading off second base in the bottom of the second inning yesterday and had to quickly run back to second to avoid a pickoff throw by San Francisco Giants pitcher Eric Surkamp.
He did make it back to second, but Giants second baseman Jeff Keppinger wasn't able to get his glove on it. As a result, Surkamp's pickoff throw managed to strike Denorfia directly in the head.

One particular fan in the stands of Arthur Ashe Stadium a few nights ago provided some entertainment in between matches at the US Open with his dancing. Check it out after the jump.
Due Diligence: 9/6/11 Edition
A few quick notes to pass along:
- The majority opinion seems to be thumbs down for the Maryland football uniforms last night. I respect the incorporation of the state flag into the uniform, but that doesn't mean we have to like it. Hopefully next time they can choose one of the other 16 variations of uniform combinations they have lined up.
- At the World Track and Field Championships, a female long jumper from Belarus lost out on the gold medal because the hair in her pony tail hit the ground behind her body, leaving a mark in the sand and shortening her jump from 6.9 meters to 6.74 meters, while the winning jump was 6.82 meters. The consensus opinion here is that she'll probably give strong consideration to getting a haircut after this.
- Golfer Nick Watley had trouble hitting the ball out of a hazard at the Deutsche Bank Championships yesterday. He lost his temper and smashed a rock with his wedge. Since the rock was in the hazard, he had effectively grounded the ball, leading to an automatic two-stroke penalty. Sometimes it's better to keep your cool rather than make a bad situation worse.

Video: Twins' Trevor Plouffe Loses Track of Outs, Allows Angels To Score
You wonder why major league baseball players remind their teammates how many outs there are after every play? Because losing track could end up giving a run to the other team...and it makes you look really silly, like it did for Minnesota Twins second baseman Trevor Plouffe yesterday.

Video: Rafael Nadal Collapses From Leg Cramp Pain During Press Conference After Match
Rafael Nadal appeared to be in serious pain during a press conference held after his straight-set victory over David Nalbandian in his US Open tennis match today.

Video: Eric Hosmer's Glove Rips When Trying To Catch Line Drive
It's bad enough that the Kansas City Royals won't pay big money to sign big-time free agent baseball players, but apparently they don't have enough money to give the players they have quality equipment. It showed yesterday when a liner to first base went right through the webbing of Eric Hosmer's glove.
Video: Notre Dame Upset By South Florida, Brian Kelly Upset By Notre Dame's Performance

Video: Foul Tip Gets Stuck In Mariners Catcher Josh Bard's Facemask
It's not uncommon for a batter to foul tip a ball into the catcher's mask, but it's not every day that you see a foul tip actually get stuck in the catcher's mask. That's what happened to Seattle Mariners catcher Josh Bard when Oakland A's shortstop Cliff Pennington hit a foul tip straight back and the baseball got lodged in between the bars of Bard's facemask.
Video: Young Tigers Fan Drops Foul Ball From Glove But Celebrates Anyway

Video: Referee Calls TCU For False Start Penalty On "Everyone But the Center"
In the first Friday of the college football season, Baylor pulls off a shocking upset of 14th ranked TCU in a 50-48 shootout victory. Baylor's crowd clearly did their job of making it hard for TCU to call the offense at the line of scrimage, as at one point the referee called a false start penalty on "everyone but the center".

Video: Worst Track and Field Announcer Ever...Or Just a Bad Day at the Office?
Ever have a bad day at the office? Well, it probably wasn't as bad as the day that British TV sports presenter Ortis Deley had when covering the 2011 World Track and Field Championships. It's bad enough that he made more than his share of mistakes, but most of them were made on live TV and now the footage will live forever on the Internet.
Video: Kansas City Royals Pitcher Throws Wild Pitch During Intentional Walk
It's not uncommon to a pitcher to throw a wild pitch once in a while. However, it is unusual for a pitcher to throw a wild pitch during an intentional walk.
Video: Florida Marlins Pitcher Smashes Gatorade Cup Holder In Dugout After Being Removed From Game In Middle of At-Bat
Florida Marlins manager Jack McKeon made the unusual move of removing pitcher Clay Hensley from the game in the middle of an at-bat in the bottom of the third inning. That apparently upset Hensley, who smashed a Gatorade cup holder in the dugout as he left the game.

Video: Cliff Lee Doesn't Bother Running Out Ground Balls
You know how baseball players are supposed to run to first base no matter what happens? They teach that in Little League, don't they? Well, apparently Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cliff Lee doesn't think he has to abide by this rule.
Ryan Braun Fails To Get Inside-The-Park Home Run When He Falls After Rounding Third Base
In Wednesday night's game at Milwaukee, Brewers left fielder Ryan Braun could have had an inside-the-park home run if he was able to keep his balance after rounding third base. Instead, Braun only gets credit for a triple after falling down before reaching home plate and getting caught in a rundown.

CleanupStack class, like a generic stack struct, defines two fundamental methods, PushL and Pop. The main intent of CleanupStack is to address every allocated object that may be "orphaned" when an exception occurs. CleanupStack maintains a stack where its forming elements stores pointers to the objects in the heap.
It is incredibly important that applications do not leak memory, and so you must take steps to ensure that any application resources stored on the heap are cleaned up when an exception occurs. The Cleanup Stack is central to this methodology, as it offers a way to delete data that may otherwise be orphaned.
The cleanup stack addresses the problem of cleaning up objects that have been allocated on the heap, but to which the owning pointer is an automatic variable.
You should never push a member variable to the cleanup stack. Once a pointer to a heap object has been copied into a member of some existing class instance, then you no longer need that pointer on the cleanup stack. This is because the class destructor takes responsibility for the object's destruction.
To ensure you actually deallocate ANY object you create, there is a stack, named the "Cleanup Stack", where you push any object that needs to be deallocated later.
Contents |
Consider this example:
CDemo* demo = new CDemo;
delete demo;
If the DangerousOperationL() leaves, the delete demo will be never reached, leaving the demo object allocated, resulting in a memory leak.
What to push in CleanupStack:
It should never be possible for an object to be cleaned up more than once. If the pointer wer retained in the cleanupstack, then if the function leaves; the leave will destroy it. But if you have stored that pointer to the other object, the object will also try to destroy it(usually in its own destructor). An attempt to delete an object twice on heap causes a system panic.
This is the reason that pointers which are class member variavles should not pushed onto the CleanupStack.
The correct way is to use the cleanup stack as follows:
CDemo* demo = new CDemo();
CleanupStack:: PushL(demo);
CleanupStack:: PopAndDestroy()
This way, you push the element that must be deallocated in a deallocation stack. If the execution is performed normally, you pop objects and destroy them, in a single call.
If the execution leaves, the cleanup is also performed in the context of leaving. This is the most important feature of the Cleanup Stack making its use a must in Symbian programming.
What if CleanupStack::PushL() Itself Fails?
Pushing to the cleanup stack may potentially allocate memory, and therefore may itself fail! You don't have to worry about this, because such a failure will be handled properly because there is at least one spare slot on the cleanup stack. When you do a PushL(), the object you are pushing is first placed on to the cleanup stack (which is guaranteed to work, because there was a spare slot). Then, a new slot is allocated. If that fails, then the object you just pushed is popped and destroyed. The cleanup stack actually allocates more than one slot at once, and doesn't throw away slots that have been allocated when they are popped. So pushing and popping from the cleanup stack are very efficient client operations.

New Mattress for a Bad Back
I had a Simmons Plush mattress for the past 6 years. Over the last year it became very uncomfortable causing me to toss and turn all night. I was diagnosed with L4/L5 herniated discs. The bed sagged almost 2 inches so Macy's allowed me to pick a new bed. I chose the Simmons Beautyrest Alissane plush pillowtop. The bed feels very comfortable when I go to sleep, but I am still finding myself tossing and turning and I am waking up with lower back pain and slight hip pain. I am thinking the mattress is too soft. I can exchange one more time and wanted to get your opinion on the right mattress. I have looked at the NXG 250 plush and NXG 400 pillowtop. What do you think of those beds for my lower back issues? I also looked at the Simmons Black Olivia, however that has Visco foam, which I believe is hot (I need to look at the Antonia). I do not want to get a topper and a firm bed does not feel right to me. I would like something with a little cushion and that is why I got
> the pillowtop so I would not feel a bunch of pressure points. I think I need to stick with Simmons so would like your opinion on the best Simmons, however if I could choose another mattress from Macy's what would you suggest if you think there is one out there better than a Simmons (I don't believe Macy's offers Sealy Springfree Beachside)? Your help is appreciated as I have had the bed for 30 days and need to make a decision in the next couple of weeks.
Hi Jim. You're right. The bed is too soft for your disc problems. And as long as you insist upon buying a soft mattress, you will continue to experience pain. You've already expressed what you don't want, which is precisely what you need. Simmons models come plush and firm. They achieve the difference with a change in wire gauge. The firmer ones have a heavier gauge wire. Many of their models come in a plush/firm...which means it has a somewhat plush top over the heavier gauge wire. If that isn't soft enough for you, then you'll need to add the topper. Despite not wanting to go that route, a soft topper provides the surface feel you like, without sacrificing the firmer support you need.
You'll find the plush/firm in the Black line and the NxG...which are the best that Simmons has. Stay away from the pillowtops.

I will be moving to a new house towards the end of Sept. I have some dahlias that were given as a gift from my dad and want to take them along. Not being a dahlia expert..... would I cut back the foilage now and then store them over the winter -OR- would I take the whole plant with me and transplant it into the ground wait for the growing season to finish then cut it back for storage?
The dahlias are about 15 inches high and have bloomed beautifully all summer. I sure would hate to leave the plants here. (The person moving in has admitted to no interest in gardening and I do not want the tubers to become sentimental mulch!) |

If it is likely that you will have a killing frost, then cut them back and prep them for storage.(as close to actual moving time as possible ) OR, try to carefully dig up the plant without damaging the tubers and replant them in their new location. You don't mention if you are moving to a similar, colder or warmer climate ?? Be very careful that you have an understanding with the new owners. Best of luck. Marsha |
- Posted by caroldiane 5 (My Page) on Sun, Aug 27, 06 at 12:55
Dig them up, try to remove with as large a root ball as you can and deposit into a large box for transport, then plant them immediately at the new location and let them wither after a hard frost before removing for storage. |
I will be moving only a couple miles away from my current residence. (As soon as we find a house!) I currently live in northwestern Ohio, and the moving date will be towards the end of Sept. So, I should try to take the plant, root ball, being very careful not to damage the tubers and replant them into their new home, asap- correct? Then after a heavy frost cut back the foilage and store them for the winter. If we don't find a place to move into this may all be a moot point. And then I will be forced to leave them here. :( |
- Posted by rose_nutty z4b (My Page) on Mon, Aug 28, 06 at 12:23
Don't leave them there in any case - not if they were a gift from your dad - you can surely grow them in big pots where ever you happen to end up. |
- Posted by caroldiane 5 (My Page) on Tue, Aug 29, 06 at 15:41
Well, no matter what the new owners SAYS....she may have different feelings if you were to just remove the plants without consulting her. OK, she says go ahead... Then do the lifting when she has taken possession of the house....after all, its her plants now...not yours...no matter what feelings you have for them. Get it on paper...."xxxx, hereby agrees to allow yyyy to remove said plants on....date...06.... This then gives you some protection against what maybe another member of the household might think about the idea. If you have such permission, she sounds like a reasonable person...then ask permission to come back AFTER a killing frost and remove the plants at that time. |

3 Monitors HP2311 - Radeon HD 6450 - doesn't work.
I just bought a new system and I am not very technical. My graphics card has DVI, HDMI, & VGA ports (no display port). The monitors have the same 3 ports, so I thought they would work, but it seems like the system will only recognize any 2 of the 3 monitors. I have been told that I either need display ports or active dongle adapters, which I don't understand. Is that true?

A (somewhat) cheaper solution is to drop a second video card in there and run the third monitor off of that. If the third monitor is only for something requiring a 2D picture (as in, not a 3D-intensive game, etc) a very cheap second video card will do. |

What's really strange is Eyefinity is mentioned on the Specs page over at AMD for the 6450 but none of the 6450 I looked at had a Display Port on them, which is required for triple screens on 1 card.
this is the requirement for Eyefinity as well as Triple screens in general off of an AMD Card, Quote:
AMD Eyefinity technology works with games that support non-standard aspect ratios, which is required for panning across multiple displays.
To enable more than two displays, additional panels with native DisplayPort™ connectors, and/or DisplayPort™ compliant active adapters to convert your monitor's native input to your cards DisplayPort™ or Mini-DisplayPort™ connector(s), are required. Support for six simultaneous displays may require complementary products compatible with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport. Maximum number of configured displays may vary - check with your component or system manufacturer for specific model capabilities and supported technologies. SLS ("Single Large Surface") functionality requires an identical display resolution on all configured displays. |

D'oh! I was so busy answering the question I didn't pay close enough attention to the actual thread title.
Good call, Zepher. I was curious and checked AMD's page for the card and did see Eyefinity mentioned. Like you said, three-way ain't gonna happen w/o a DP connection on the card. |

Thanks all. I guess I should have done more research up front. I didn't see the point in having the 3 ports and not be able to hook up 3 monitors.
My System Specs |
13 Sep 2011 | #6 |
Having the different kinds of ports does allow for a lot of flexibility. I'm sure there are people who have bought a card with only DVI and no included adapter who were cheesed that their older monitor wouldn't work without them coughing up more dough.

This is one of those that while the GPU itself may support Eyefinity, it is up to the individual card makers to include it on the cards. One reason you're not seeing cards out that support it is that it is still a low end entry level card, and the card manufacturers will leave things like the necessary bits for something like Eyefinity off to keep the card cost low.
Now with that said Sapphire does have a card with displayport, Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100321DDR5OCL Radeon HD 6450 512MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card that does support Eyefinity, and if it is the right model can runup to 4 monitors off the one dsiplayport, Quote:
Doubling the effective bandwidth of previous DisplayPort implementations, DisplayPort 1.2 now includes support for Multi-Stream, allowing you to drive up to four separate monitors from a single DisplayPort 1.2 connector (requires DP1.2 monitors or Multi-Stream compatible hub), Stereoscopic 3D monitor support and adds support for high quality, lossless, 7.1 channel audio formats.

Dellani Oakes, an American author with Second Wind Publishing, sent me this review:
'A Handful Of Stars' – Mark Iles
Connor is a problem child. Constantly running away and getting into trouble, he's becoming difficult for Miranda to cope with. Called yet again to the facility where he lives, she finally has a frank talk with him. What she finds out surprises her.
Miranda discovers that Connor isn't like most children. He's not from around here. She doesn't immediately believe what he tells her, but eventually comes to an understanding. With Miranda's encouragement, Connor strikes out on his own once more, searching for his family in earnest.
"Handful of Stars" is a tenderly depicted story of loss, fear and acceptance. It is the very definition of a leap of faith.'

VMsafe is essentially set of APIs at the level of the hypervisor/virtual machine monitor that VMware has opened up to developers (primarily of security tools). Since the virtual machine monitor arbitrates all access between the OSs that run on top of it and the shared hardware underneath (memory, CPU, disk and network), security vendors can tap into this unique visibility to provide new and improved types of security capabilities.
This concept of VMM-level visibility ("introspection") holds the potential to radically transform security in virtualized environments and I have discussed this in detail in conference presentations and in published research. However, there are significant issues to be resolved with this approach, many of which will not be addressed in VMware's first release of a VMsafe-enabled version of ESX (expected later this year).
In a previous post, I discussed how the legacy security vendors are fighting the move to virtualize – dragging their feet on delivering solutions we need for securing virtualized environments. I've seen the lack of VMsafe availability used as a stalling tactic by the vendors ("we're waiting on VMsafe before delivering our solution…"). Don't believe it. Network-based security protection can be run in ESX today as a virtual appliance and provide firewall and intrusion prevention services for the internal virtual network traffic. Host-based security protection solutions such as AV can be run today inside of a guest VM to provide protection within the VM. Sure, in the future VMsafe may enable these solutions to install more easily, possibly reduce the number of agents and potentially transform the way we secure virtual environments. Awesome! If I'm responsible for VM security, I'll consider it after the APIs ship, after the vendors finally ship their VMsafe-enabled solutions, after I've got a level of comfort that these VMsafe-enabled security solutions don't in of themselves introduce new security vulnerabilities, after I've tested both thoroughly and when I'm prepared to migrate (oh, and when I've got the budget).
Note to self: Check back on VMsafe in at least a year when all of this starts to become a reality. Radical transformation can wait. I've got real virtualization initiatives that need to be deployed securely now.

Nice wall hangings, Kathi. The yo-yo tree is cute! I have a wreath wall hanging I should get out and finish. I made an Advent Calendar a few years ago...... SharonG/FL |
I don't know which one I like best. They are all absolutely wonderful!! If I had to pick one, it would probably the first one--did you have a pattern for that? |
Adorable - you have really been busy! I couldn't pick my favorite, they are all great. Maryp |
They are all so cute. I love the yo-yo! |
You must have a lot of wall space! LOL They are all great. I just bought a kit to make a tree wall hanging, but it'll probably be next year! Donna |
Wow, Kathi! They are all really great....I love them. The fabrics that you chose gave everything such depth. Joseph's robe in the one wall hanging looked like it had folds in it. Everything is so intricate! |

How inspiring, that should get the ole Christmas spirit roaring!!! Love them all!!! |

Thanks gals!! Yes i had either patterns or books for all of them and they were made over several years,not all in one year.I think fabric for all of them came from my stash.The picture of the first one doesn't do it justice,it has sequins and seed beads on it that make it sparkle and shine when it's hanging up.I take down a lot of my pictures etc from the walls at xmas time and hang these. I think it probably took me longer to choose the fabrics for them than the actual work,especially The Nativity.I just love those little sheep in that one. |
I just love the little sheep too!!! Actually I just love all of them, the yo-yo tree is adorable. Very nice job. Rosa |
Kathi what a wonderful collection! I love Christmas! I can almost smell the chestnuts warming over an open fire! Your have a fine set of beauties. |

Buyers remorse is alive and wellWhat every buyer should and should not doFriday, January 24th, 2014 Issue 04, Volume 18.
What to do: 1. Establish your wants vs. needs Sit down with everyone whose opinion matters in the selection of your new home. It might be parents, a spouse or even your children, but include everyone. Decide what you collectively agree on what is an absolute must have â these are your "needs." Then create a second list of the features you want in your new home and call it your "wants." In most situations the "wants" will be a much longer list â make sure to understand the difference between the two. Create a personal checklist so that when you start looking at homes, youll be able to narrow your search based on your needs that will warrant a strong consideration and schedule a viewing with your REALTOR® in real time. Now look for the home that fulfills most of your wants. While this may sound pretty basic, youd be surprised at how many buyers never do this and make decisions strictly on emotions and first impressions. 2. Location, location, location The three most important rules in real estate are the same in Temecula and Murrieta as they are anywhere else in California or across the country. Buying your dream home in a horrible neighborhood is never a good idea and will likely lead to buyers remorse. Your new home will be the center point of your life from work to school, church to hobbies, distance between friends and family. These are all vital to your happiness. Your home is your castle and youll want to make certain that you enjoy being there â and you wont if you dont like the neighborhood or other attributes of the location. A long commute gets very tiring very quickly and can become very expensive in both time and auto expenses. 3. A second look is critical Who has never gotten excited about a Temecula or Murrieta home for sale after the first look? Its so easy to get ramped-up (especially if you dont have a wants and needs checklist) about a home during your first visit. Taking a second look will give you, the buyer, an opportunity to look at the home with a critical eye and a more objective thought process. Its much easier to pick up on the negative aspects of the home for sale on the second viewing that went unnoticed the first time the home was seen. 4. Sleep on it Even in the most competitive sellers market, where homes are going quickly, a good buyers agent should be able to reach out to the listing agent and let them know that they have a motivated buyer who will be submitting an offer the following day â so never worry about losing a house because you could not make a spontaneous offer after spending 20 minutes in a house. Even if the seller has an offer on the table, theyll typically wait 24 hours to see what you will be offering. What not to do: 1. Dont use the wrong REALTOR® Hiring a real estate agent should not be about their smile, the cute picture of their kids or dog or even because they may be a relative, a friend or a friend of a friend. Hiring the wrong REALTOR® when you want to buy a Temecula-Murrieta home can lead to disaster, therapy and even ulcers. Ok, maybe thats being a bit pessimistic, but certainly hiring the wrong real estate agent can be stressful at best and cost you a lot of money in a worst case scenario. I would not necessarily advocate the agent with the most experience â experience can be crucial if you can truly verify the agents level of expertise. Dont rely on their marketing pieces. Rather, I would suggest that you rely on your gut instinct. I am assuming, of Advertisement * Does your agent look you in the eye when speaking to you and have a firm sincere handshake? * Does your agent listen to you and help you establish the need in a Temecula-Murrieta home? * Is your agent genuinely interested in helping you and your family find what you want? Or are they more concerned about closing escrow, cashing a commission check and moving on? * Do you connect with your agent and feel that the relationship is genuine and trustworthy? You and your agent will be spending a lot of time together and youll be relying on their expertise, professional opinions and local market knowledge to purchase your new home. If any of the above answers are "no" keep looking and find the agent that gets you. 2. Dont feel like you must berate "the other guy" When faced with a multiple offer situation, dont get caught up in the game of one-upmanship. Stay focused. You dont have to be the winner. Working with the right buyers agent youll have access to local market conditions and know what the home is worth. You shouldnt offer any higher than the market allows. Your agent will be able to structure the strongest offer you are comfortable with that includes more than just a price consideration. If you dont get the home, accept it as it wasnt meant to be and that your perfect home is waiting for you to walk through the door. 3. Dont let family or friends share what they think We want to think that our friends and family have out best interests at heart but many times they just dont get it. They have no idea what is really on the market today. They have no idea about prices, condition or whats really important to you, the buyer. Who knows, maybe (just maybe), there might be a hint of envy or jealousy shining through looking to derail your happiness it happens. Pulling out late in the transaction can be very expensive. You might lose the lease on the home you are currently renting. You are out-of-pocket for all of the inspections and the appraisal. Youll probably lose your earnest money deposit â or in many cases 3 percent of the purchase price, not to mention all the time it took to get to the point where you cancel the deal based on a third partys intervention. If you ever hear the words, "youll thank me later" just go ahead and cringe now. Oh, and there are actually some Temecula-Murrieta real estate brokers who will even sue you for the lost commission that they are entitled to under the terms of the contract. Yes, there are exceptions, but youve probably talked to your inner circle of trusted advisors early in the process â its when an out-of-town expert arrives with no understanding of the local real estate market, never met your agent and has no idea what is usual and customary in the local Temecula-Murrieta real estate market that things can quickly get turned sideways. Besides, how are you going to feel when the same house closes escrow in another month or two for a lot more than you could have had it for? 4. Whatever you do dont look at other homes once under contract Remember the 1970s song "Love the One Youre With" by Stephen Stills? Well, the lesson applies here â you have a house under contract â love it. Would you keep an active account on an internet dating site once youre engaged? I think not. If you followed the steps above, there is no reason to keep looking. Plan on a smooth closing and escrow with the house of your dreams.
