Though Susanna Timor hasn't yet had her day in court, the reams of documents generated during the investigative proceedings have been laid open for public scrutiny. As a chronicle of the nuances of an inquiry, their contents are instructive. And as a repository for unanswered questions A particularly where the U.S. attorney is concerned A they are, to say the least, daunting.
At 9:00 a.m. on June 13, John Askins, the lieutenant of the Miami office of the Division of Insurance Fraud and a seventeen-year veteran of the department, sat down at his office computer and began typing. "Frank Doolittle called me yesterday afternoon extremely upset over the Susanna Timor investigation," commenced an interoffice e-mail from Askins to his investigators on the case, Murphy and Smith. "In order for you to understand the gravity of this situation, the following is what was said, to the best of my recollection:
"The Director first mentioned that his blood pressure was extremely high as he just had a 45-minute conversation with Department General Counsel Dan Sumner. Apparently, enormous political pressure is being applied to get us off this case. Director Doolittle stated, 'I may get fired over this, but I'll make sure you and the investigators get fired also.' He stated that this case is going to do us in, and we need to get completely away from it."
Perhaps only fittingly for a case where nothing is exactly as it seems, the veracity of this memo has been thrown into doubt. By Doolittle.
The division director says he learned about the e-mail only early this past month, when it was made available to New Times in response to a public records request. But he contests several of its assertions, and says he never uttered the words, "I may get fired over this, but I'll make sure you and the investigators get fired also." In fact, Doolittle adds, he never said anything threatening about Askins's or the investigators' jobs, or about his own livelihood being in jeopardy. "I don't know where he's coming from on that," Doolittle says of the quotation. (John Askins refused to comment on any aspect of the case and referred all inquiries to his superiors in Tallahassee.)
Regardless of the disputed contents of the memo, there was evidence of pressure, whether political or otherwise, from the other side of the investigation.
The complications had begun with the involvement of John Thornton, Jr., a Miami lawyer who says he was contacted by Timor the night Murphy and Smith visited. She knew him, Thornton explains, because he had done referral work for Coffey's law firm before the U.S. attorney's appointment by President Clinton in October 1993. Thornton also had more than a passing familiarity with the Dade State Attorney's Office, where he had worked as a prosecutor from 1977 to 1980. He was also a social acquaintance of both Chief Assistant State Attorney Trudy Novicki and Mary Cagle, the deputy chief for special prosecutions. Both women oversee cases involving public officials.
Within several days of Timor's interview, Thornton met with prosecutors at the State Attorney's Office and with investigators at the Division of Insurance Fraud to plead his client's case. His aim, says Thornton, was to prevent charges being filed against Timor. Under his counsel she submitted to four lie-detector tests and passed them all. (She also underwent handwriting analysis, the results of which were deemed inconclusive.) Thornton also pointed investigators to documents and witnesses he felt would further attest to his client's innocence. Among the people he proffered as character witnesses was U.S. Attorney Kendall Coffey. "In my experience, I'm not familiar with a defense attorney meeting and trying to provide leads to an investigative body prior to charges being filed," comments Doolittle. "But there's certainly nothing that says a defense attorney can't do this for his client."
The swirl of lawyers and politics intensified in part owing to Coffey himself. By late spring, when New Times was preparing a story about the Timor investigation, the apparently nervous U.S. attorney retained noted First Amendment lawyer Richard Ovelmen to run interference for him. A former general counsel for the Miami Herald, Ovelmen says he was commissioned "to provide libel counseling" for Coffey and to call the State Attorney's Office on the U.S. attorney's behalf. He adds that Coffey instructed him to ask specifically about how the office was planning to respond to New Times's inquiry about Coffey's involvement in the case.
Over the course of a few days, Ovelmen blitzed the State Attorney's Office and New Times with phone calls. "The fear was that New Times would publish something that was inaccurate," he explains.
In one bizarre exchange of calls, Ovelmen tried to persuade Assistant State Attorney Mary Cagle to declare publicly that Coffey was not a target of any investigation. Though it is the policy of the State Attorney's Office not to comment on open investigations, Ovelmen called New Times insisting that Cagle had told him she was willing to declare that Coffey was not under investigation. But when Cagle was reached the following day, she gave only the standard "no comment" response to New Times. (Though Cagle will not comment on the exchange of phone calls, it appears the miscommunication was a matter of semantics: While Cagle says there was no official investigation of Coffey at the time, the public records make it clear that the State Attorney's Office was amassing information about Coffey and suspected possible wrongdoing on his part.)

The best NBA trades on the trade deadline
- The NBA trade deadline is upon us once again, and for a league that likes to stay pat more or less this time of year, there have been some great trades made on deadline that have turned teams around. Let's look at the 10 best now. Photo: AP in English
- Knicks trade for Carmelo Anthony: In 2011, the Knicks traded Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, Wilson Chandler and New York's 2014 first-round pick to the Denver Nuggets for Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman. Anthony alone has been worth it for the Knicks, as he is second in the league in scoring and New York has the second-best record in the East. the Nuggets acquired enough pieces to remain a playoff team, and in 2012 they are a top-5 team in the West. Photo: AP in English
- Nets trade for Deron Williams: In 2011, the Utah Jazz traded Deron Williams to the Nets for Devin Harris, Derrick Favors, two first-round picks and cash. Williams helped rejuvenate a Nets team that had been struggling, while the Jazz have been in the playoff hunt thanks to the additions of Favors and Harris. Photo: AP in English
- Sonics trade for Ray Allen: At the trade deadline in 2003, the Sonics traded legendary point guard Gary Payton, along with Desmond Mason to the Milwaukee Bucks for Ray Allen, Kevin Ollie, Ronald Murray and a conditional first-round pick. Allen made the Sonics instant contenders. Photo: AP in English
- 76ers trade for Mutombo: The Philadelphia 76ers were a center short of contending in the Eastern Conference, so in 2001 they traded Theo Ratliff, Tony Kukoc, Nazr Mohammed and Pepe Sanchez to Atlanta for Dikembe Mutombo and foward Rosheon McLeod. Mutombo proved to be the missing piece in Philly, where he teamed with Allen Iverson to take the Sixers to the Finals that season. Photo: AP in English
- Heat trade for Walker: In 2005, Antoine Walker was part of a 5-team, 13-player deal that moved him from Boston to Miami. He became a key contributor to the Heat's first NBA title in 2006. Photo: AP in English
- Heat acquire Hardaway: In 1996, the Heat traded Bimbo Coles and Kevin Willis to Golden State for Tim Hardaway and Chris Gatling. Hardaway became the backbone, along with Alonzo Mourning, of Heat teams that challenged in the East throughout the late 1990s. Photo: AP in English
- Hawks trade Wilkins: This trade is significant for the players involved in the deal as much as the impact on the two dealing teams. In 1994, the Hawks traded all-time leading scorer Dominique Wilkins to the L.A. Clippers for Danny Manning. Manning helped lead the Hawks to the No. 1 seed in the East, but they were upset in the second round of the playoffs. Photo: AP in English
- Suns trade for KJ, Majerle: In 1988, the Cleveland Cavaliers traded Kevin Johnson, Dan Majerle, Mark West, Tyrone Corbin and two second-round picks to Phoenix for Larry Nance, Mike Sanders and their 1988 first-round pick. KJ and Majerle were part of the nucleus of very good Suns teams over the next few years, culminating in Phoenix's run to the 1993 NBA Finals. Nance was an anchor for a young Cavs team that frequently reached the playoffs. Photo: AP in English
- Nuggets acquire English: In 1980, the Indiana Pacers traded third-year player Alex Engliush and a first-round pick to the Denver Nuggets for George McGinnis. McGinnis lasted only two seasons in Indiana before retiring, while English went on to become one of the all-time leading scorers in NBA history and the leader of the 1981-82 Nuggets, the highest-scoring team in league history. Photo: AP in English
- 76ers trade for Wilt: In 1965, the Philadelphia 76ers traded Connie Dierking, Paul Neumann, Lee Shaffer and cash to the San Francisco Warriors for Wilt Chamberlain. The Sixers became instant contenders, and led by Wilt won the 1967 NBA title with one of the greatest teams in league history. Photo: AP in English

Giving What Is Wanted |
December, 2001 |
This is a story from my husbands other life when he was a young man in the Marines in North Carolina. He and his wife
had proudly purchased a brand new Saab, a wobbly early version of the now reliable car. The car had a tricky three-cylinder
engine and two doors whose locks were not user friendly. The couple set off in the late evening for the long drive north to visit family. Along the dark, lonely way, the car started to act up. George pulled to the side of the deserted country road in order to make the necessary adjustments. Although his door was locked, it opened from the inside without unlocking. George got out, closed the door, which stayed locked. But no worry, his wife was still in the car. The engine was running. George tinkered under the hood, using a flashlight to see. No luck with the adjustments. Then his wife got out of the car and shut her door. It stayed locked, too. There was the car, engine sputtering, the doors all locked while George and his wife stood outside surrounded by dark fields. There was one little light coming from a shack far off in one field. George trudged his way to the shack and knocked hesitantly on the door. Inside the one-room cabin people were sleeping wherever they could. George asked the man who kindly answered the door if he had a coat hanger. Yes, he did and George was welcome to take it. Back George trudged, used the coat hanger to trip the door lock, loaded himself and his wife in the tricky car and set off on their way. How could it be that in the midst of poverty George was given the one gift he needed to see him safely on his way? Contrast this gift with the gift of a Thanksgiving meal that was left anonymously outside the apartment door of a woman in New Haven year after year. The woman never did find who left the meals. She was not grateful. She was mad! She didnt eat meat, she felt capable of fixing her own Thanksgiving food and now she had to figure out what to do with all that stuff! No one asked her what she wanted. No doubt the giver felt the glow of generosity year after year, never realizing what a pain he or she was. Heres to giving what is wanted. Heres to knowing each other and caring for each other. |

Lesson to Travel By: Look for value packages, not just lower rates.
The Deal: Head to Hawaii (view slideshow) when everybody else isn't, and the hotels are a bit desperate.
The Luxury Essentials: Since families make up most of Hawaii's tourists, the low season falls between November and Christmas, and from January to Easter. That's when the resorts start running promotions—typically adding amenities and extra nights rather than lowering the room rate. At the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua (view slideshow) on Maui, for instance, you'll get a fourth night free and a $250 credit toward food and drinks at the resort. The Fairmont Kea Lani (view slideshow), also on Maui, offers the fifth night free and complimentary breakfast. And the Three for Free deal at the Grand Hyatt Kauai (view slideshow) includes a fifth night free, a room upgrade, and breakfast for two daily. There are occasional rain showers this month, but they're brief and localized, so you can always find a sunny patch of beach nearby.
Artful Advice: Hawaii is one of the few destinations where flight/car rental/hotel combo packages are often cheaper than buying each element separately; check out Expedia and Orbitz for deals.
A Fair Fare: Book a flight on United from Chicago to Honolulu for $595 in November, compared with almost $1,000 in July.

Up until this last spring I had been applying for a mule deer permit in Colorado for the better part of a decade. I guess my lucky number came up with the help of all those preference points because I had finally drawn a deer permit! I called a hardcore, die-hard hunting friend of mine named Jonah to inform him of my good fortune. Having spent a lot of time in the unit I had drawn, he graciously offered to go along with me on the hunt. I knew if anyone could help me harvest a super-sized mule deer it would be him.
A week of pre-season scouting proved to be worth its weight in gold. We began glassing for deer in the pre-dawn darkness on opening morning. A white rump would materialize in contrast against the dark mountainside. Then the deer would turn broadside and, like a magic act, it would disappear into thin air. As the light conditions grew to the point where we were able to start picking deer out of the sage, we found two of the three bucks we were looking for. Within a matter of minutes both were bedded down. Though they were three quarters of a mile apart from one another, they both bedded within 100 yards of a road. One bedded down out of sight in a thin line of pine trees that intersected a large open park while the other lay down right in the open sage brush.
As we discussed options for possible stalking routes we heard the distant sound of a four-wheeler. It was only the start of what was yet to come. By a half hour after legal shooting light there were hunters everywhere. Pickups, jeeps, four-wheelers you name it we saw it.
We decided our best option was to sit and watch the bucks and let them decide for us what our next move would be. Throughout the day, as we watched from a mile away, hunter after hunter passed by the two bucks and never had a clue they were there.
The buck that bedded in the open apparently had had enough action when the third vehicle drove past him. After it quieted down a little he stood up and slinked his way into a nearby stand of aspens.
At one point a white pickup stopped within 80 yards of the deer. Panic stricken, I watched in horror as the hunter got out and walked around his pickup, then began glassing. I knew the buck would not put up with that much commotion so close to him. Almost none of the hunters we'd observed were stopping to glass; when they did it was for only a quick glance. Amazingly, the deer simply froze like a statue. After a while he slowly lowered his head sideways, leaving one antler resting on the ground. Forty-five minutes later, the hunter drove away, completely unaware he was within yards of a very respectable mule deer.
It was obvious the bucks we observed were not spooked by the myriad of hunters scouring the countryside, so we decided to look for a deer we had seen only briefly the night before. We had only a fleeting glimpse of this particular buck before it had gotten too dark to see, but we thought he was better than any deer we had seen so far.
During that evening's hunt, a buck of the sort dreams are made of emerged from the timber. At over a mile away, the sight of him and those antlers would darn near take your breath away. His antlers were so out of proportion to his body, they looked unnatural. When the buck walked away from us, it looked as if his antlers grew out of the sides of his white rump and then curved up two feet over his back.
We spent the next three days trying to find the big bruiser, and when we did, we tried to figure out how to get close enough for a shot without spooking the seemingly countless other deer in the area we would have to wade through. We thought we would have only one chance. Being as all the other hunters in the area had completely overlooked him, we decided to wait and watch. We hoped that if we were patient enough the deer would eventually make a mistake.
I had brought my rattling horns, buck grunt, and doe bleat calls with me. I even went so far as to purchase an $8 bottle of 'doe-in-heat' scent with the hopes that if the buck roamed at night he would come across the scent and stick around until morning.
On the third evening of hunting season, Jonah stayed up on higher ground, armed with his spotting scope, hoping to locate the buck before the lengthening shadows turned into one and darkness enveloped the country. Meanwhile, I carefully walked down off the skyline and through the pines to the bottom of the ridge. I emptied most of the deer scent on one wilted aspen that was visible from the ridge line above. I thought to myself, if a buck was hanging around this tree in the morning it would be in a good location for a shot. I climbed back up the hill and started a rattling sequence. I waited 10 minutes, then rattled some more, all to no avail. At the very least we were hoping that curiosity would get the best of him.
With the inky darkness, if we didn't have the optics we did I doubt we would have been able to see him. But there he was, three quarters of a mile away. He was peering out of the trees with his ears purked up, looking our direction. Minutes later we were feeling the ground for our gear. We silently hiked up to the pickup without turning our headlamps on.
The next morning we found the buck had moved during the course of the night. He was following a handful of does as they made their way for higher country. I grabbed my rifle, shooting sticks, rattling horns and off I went, hoping for a shot, but it wasn't meant to be. I couldn't catch up with the buck and his does before they bedded in some thick cover for the day. We decided to be patient and wait for evening.
Since we wanted to make sure the buck didn't move during the day and keep track of his approximate location, we set up shop on a high rocky outcropping that allowed us a commanding view of the surroundings. Surprisingly enough, the time seemed to fly by as we waited for evening.
Things were looking perfect as the does came out of their bedding cover at 200 yards. Time seemed to stand still waiting for the buck to show himself. His sixth sense must have kicked in because he had circled around downwind of us. The next thing I knew he busted out of the trees well beyond the reach of my rifle, acting as if two hunters were trying to harvest him. The buck headed in the direction where I had been rattling. As hard as he was running, he looked as though he wasn't going to stop any time soon.
I had a sick feeling in my stomach. I was reflecting long and hard about the seven years I'd been applying for this permit, and how conservative we had been in our efforts to ensure a successful stalk. Now I was watching the buck of a lifetime disappear out of sight for the last time.
As we hiked in the dark back to the pickup, I decided to pursue one of the bucks we had found while scouting. I thought a fantastic deer was better than no deer, after all, there were only three days left of season and the buck of a lifetime had just run out of my dreams and wouldn't likely be seen again.
I don't know who was more disappointed when the buck blew out, Jonah or me. Jonah volunteered to come back in the morning to look for the monster we had been trying to get for the past four days.
When the sun came up the next morning, I was looking at one of the bucks we located during pre-season scouting. He was a heavy horned buck that would make even the most serious mule deer hunter take a second look. Like usual, he bedded in some sparse aspens in a perfect spot for a stalk.
I was thinking to myself, "I'm looking at a great buck almost anyone in their right mind would shoot on opening day, and he doesn't even compare to the brute of a mulie we'd been pursuing the past few days." Looking one last time at the buck, I said to him "It's your lucky day." Then I was off to meet with Jonah.
He was excited when I found him. "I've been watching him for a half hour and he's 80 yards from the tree you sprayed the doe scent on! We've got to move, he just stood up and he's feeding his way into the pines," he said. Leaving everything except my shooting sticks and rifle we began running down the canyon rim like a couple Olympic sprinters.
The rangefinder read 381 yards. I knew I could make the shot, but I wanted to get closer. As I dropped into the canyon, the lower I got the taller the trees became and ultimately blocked the view of the deer. He was already in the trees and we could only see bits and pieces of him. It was going to have to be a 50 yard shot or a long shot. We were both surprised the deer was up this late in the morning and I decided with the window of opportunity we had it was going to be a long shot.
Aiming for 400 yards, I squeezed the trigger. The deer exploded into the pines and disappeared.
"You took the hair off the top of his shoulders!"
I was numb with disappointment that I had just missed the largest deer I had ever seen. Instantly I realized I should have held for 350 with the down hill angle, coupled with the fact that he was 381 and not 400.
Then disappointment fluttered into hope as the deer appeared in a small shooting lane between two trees farther up the mountain. I wiggled into the shooting sticks and acquired a solid rest. I wasn't going to rush this one, and took a couple extra seconds to double check that everything was perfect. The brush and pine covered country dissolved the crack of the rifle. Instantly the deer vanished into the sage at the bottom of the scope! Peering through the scope I blinked once and then focused my attention on the one dark brown antler angling up above the sage brush.
Giddy with adrenaline, I looked up at Jonah, and we started a premature celebration of hooting and hollering! All of a sudden the deer was up and moving. A couple of follow up shots later and he was down for good.
When we reached the deer there weren't many words spoken at first. We just stood there speechless and admired the magnificent animal.
The buck's antlers are 34 inches wide and we unofficially gross scored him at 212 6/8'. I could hunt the rest of my days and never see a deer of this caliber again. I owe it all to my good friend Jonah and his never say die attitude.

Eshu's blues: Gates Busted by Officer Jim Crowlaw, uh, James Crowley
Just a smoke screen? -- Just an excuse to deflect healthcare?
If so, no more perfect timing then at the end of a major press conference on healthcare. Don't recall seeing anything in the press that day from Obama about healthcare, all about "stupid" being a word we dare not swear.
For when paid actor politicians pretend to run a make believe government, many smoke screens to they need, many things that blind the mind by burning the emotions.
For national healthcare, Medicare for all, would be the best thing that happened to America. And like watching a comical freak side-show is it when all those high-paid confusion generators go into action.

Well this is great, after some really busy weeks I wanted to give a good advice to all FloEFD users (and of corse the other Flo* products users) and I have to see that Robin already did. But anyway I want to point this out too.
Did you ever wonder if you can have any influence in the development of software you are using. Take the Microsoft Office products for example, do you think you can have any influence in a product as big as this in the way of handling it, in new features you want to have in the software? I don't know if Microsoft has an email address on where to send enhancement suggestions so I don't want to say you cannot influence them but when you think about it, you can get the feeling you are just a little user that no one can hear when screaming for an certain enhancement you could need really badly. But hey, you have the right to get heard and involved in the development process. After all, you are buying the software and using it. Imagine you have bought a new really nice car and there is some problem with, lets say something non-lethal than the brakes , the steering wheel it is going really hard and you wouldn't have the right to get it fixed or in our case improved with a better bearing or what ever would solve the problem. Ok, that would be more of a bug than an enhancement, but I think you catch my drift.
As an engineer who works in the support we regularly receive calls from customers asking if this or that is possible with FloEFD and if not we can forward an enhancement to our developers and we gladly do this since you are the expert in your field and know what is needed to simulate or visualize your models. But when we forward the enhancement, how would you know we really did it (not that we won't, but do you know it?) or you would again get the feeling you are the only one who needs this enhancement and why should we listen to you "little" user out of thousands of other users around the world. Well there is one way to make sure your enhancement is getting seen by the developer team and to see if you are really the only one who need this. Log on to your SupportNet website and see in the bottom left column the blue "Mentor Ideas" field. Simply click on it and you can create yourself a profile and post your enhancement suggestion. But not only post your suggestions, you can also vote for other suggestions so they are climbing up in the ranking list and with that helping our developers to see which enhancement is of high interest for our customers.
As you can see you are not only heard, others can also vote for your suggestions so you can see that it was a good one and you can comment on other suggestions and your own. How's that, having the feeling that it is YOUR FloEFD you use. Our developer team will comment on you suggestions if they are possible or ask you for more details etc. Pleas try to use this really good tool to make FloEFD the way you want it to be with features you need to simulate your applications and if your not a native English speaker or think your English is not good enough, don't hesitate and ask your support engineer to write an enhancement suggestion for you on Mentor Ideas either anonymous or with company and/or your name to see how your idea is welcomed in the world of other FloEFD users.
I can only encourage you, and remind you again:
It is YOU who bought FloEFD, it is YOU who uses FloEFD and who else can help us better than YOU to make FloEFD more suitable to YOUR needs if not (who would have guessed it?) YOU!"
So please help us and yourself improving FloEFD in usability and suitability for your needs.

The Big Read: National initiative returns for its seventh year
(Read article summary)The National Endowment of the Arts will provide grants to communities for the read-a-thon program.
Now here's a government initiative we can get behind: the National Endowment of the Arts announced Tuesday its seventh annual nationwide read-a-thon program, The Big Read.
The Endowment is providing $1 million in grants to 78 communities across the country to host Big Read programs to encourage folks to read, share, and discuss literature. It's a kind of nationwide summer book club for communities across America.
"At the NEA we know that the arts can help to create strong, vibrant communities by bringing people together," NEA chairman Rocco Landesman said in a statement. "Through The Big Read, these 78 organizations are giving their communities the opportunity to share both great works of literature and memorable experiences."
Here's how it works. The NEA is providing 78 nonprofit institutions across the country, including arts councils, boys and girls clubs, libraries, public broadcasting stations, and universities, grants ranging from $2,500 to $20,000 to promote and host Big Read programs. Communities select one book from a group of 31 works of literature chosen by the NEA, including Julia Alvarez's "In the Time of the Butterflies," Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451," F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," Ernest J. Gaines' "A Lesson Before Dying," and Tim O'Brien's "The Things They Carried." Educational materials like author biographies, discussion questions, and CDs supplement each title.

Carolinas Cement held its second public workshop Tuesday night to answer questions about the proposed Castle Hayne plant. Although there were several information tables, most attention seemed to be focused on the environment and employment.
The Employment Opportunities table hosted a number of visitors at the public workshop. Sarah Cox is not looking for a job here, but she came to gather facts.
"I think one of the concerns and one of the draws for people would be that it offers employment opportunities, but are those employment opportunities for people here in the area or is that going to pull for more people. What I found out is it would be a lot more skilled workforce and it would be two to five years before jobs could even be created," said Cox.
Carolinas Cement's GM of Development, Bob Odom, said the plant would have 160 job openings - ideally for local workers. At this point, there's just one problem.
"If we opened the plant today we could not staff it with the Wilmington or the New Hanover County people. We have to get them trained and we're working with Cape Fear Community College," said Odom.
Odom added that the jobs would have an average salary of $75,000. He said a couple applications come in each day, but they are still a year out before they hire.
Elli Klein attended the workshop and said, "There are jobs and we need the resources, but on the other hand, what does it do to the kind of environment that people have to live in?"
Odom said, "We trying to get the facts out, there's still so much uncertainty out there, people are reading some misstatements or some people are just scared. I think they're scared because they don't know the information."
Many people came Tuesdaylooking for that information. There were others who have their minds made up.
"What they're really doing here is not a public information forum, it's a show and tell," said Tracy Skrabal from the North Carolina Coastal Federation.
Bob Odom said he and his co-workers feel confident about the project and he was happy with last night's turnout of about 100 people. The final workshop will be October 27, 2008 at UNCW's Executive Development Center on Military Cutoff Road.

Castle Rock Homes is Your Green Builder
Castle Rock Homes specializes in energy-efficient homes, basements and add-ons, but the range of projects has grown to include large commercial projects as well. Take a look at the Project Gallery to see the variety of projects we have been involved in.
We are committed to providing only the highest quality structures, while pursuing earth-friendly avenues to do so. This led us to the Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs) industry. We are excited to be part of a cutting-edge technology that offers a higher standard than traditional wood or steel framing. ICFs provide two built-in layers of foam insulation, providing energy efficiency, greater soundproofing, and much higher day-to-day comfort. ICFs also are termite proof and have a three hour fire rating. The solid construction also prevents air leakage for better indoor air quality and even temperatures — all of this saving you thousands of dollars every year!
In today's world, the importance of greener practices is being realized. Rebate programs, tax credits and deductions now exist to challenge builders and consumers alike to take that step toward becoming environmentally responsible. Building with ICFs qualifies you for rebate programs as well as an Energy Efficient Mortgage. With their tremendous environmental and personal benefits, ICFs are truly the best choice when it comes to any building project, whether residential or commercial. However, Castle Rock Homes will work with you to build any project with the products you desire.
Call us today! We would love to help make your building dream a reality. Feel free to call or email with any questions about Castle Rock Homes and/or Insulating Concrete Forms. We look forward to working with you soon!
Energy & Efficiency
Lower energy bills are desirable to anyone! Castle Rock Homes can build you a home that uses energy more efficiently for a more comfortable living space that will also save you money.
Quieter Living
Castle Rock Homes can build your home with greater soundproofing than normal frame walls for a more peaceful home environment. Using ICFs provide a sound rating of 51!
Healthier Air
When Castle Rock Homes builds with ICFs, it means your home will be better protected against outdoor pollutants and even bugs and termites. Breathe easier with Castle Rock Homes.

My favorite celebrities aren't necessarily the glamorous ones. I know everyone thinks Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman in the universe, but I'm not a big fan. I love a celebrity who can make me laugh. Who is a total original and isn't afraid to show it to the world. Who has a huge talent, but is too humble to even realize the magnitude of it. Who will keep their private life private because they don't want to exploit it for fame. On that point, I love how when she accepted the Trailblazer Award at the MTV Movie Awards, Emma squeezed her boyfriend Andrew Garfield's arm, instead of making some big point to kiss him. It was sweet and respectful to how they've chosen to handle their relationship.
I'm going to stop now because I could gush for 1,000 more words about how Emma's the exact type of celebrity I fangirl for. Anyone else out there a big Emma Stone fan? Tell me why you love her in the comments and we can fangirl together.

Taylor is pushing Selena and Austin Mahone together because she'll do anything to keep her BFF from reuniting with Justin, a source tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively. Is she being a good friend, or should she mind her own business?
Taylor Swift's made it very clear that she's not a fan of Justin Bieber. She's not happy with the way he's treated Selena Gomez in the past, so the country singer is trying to set her BFF up with other eligible bachelors.
Taylor Swift: Selena Gomez & Justin Bieber Back Together? — NOT ON HER WATCH
"It was [Taylor's] idea to push Austin [Mahone] and Selena together because she really likes Austin and thinks he would be a good distraction for Selena right now. She did the same with Ed and Selena – but so far Selena is keeping it strictly friends with both of them. But Taylor's going to keep trying, she loves hooking up her friends and especially Selena, because she wants to see her with anyone BUT Justin! Selena has a bad habit of taking Justin back again and again so even though she swears it's over for good I'm sure Taylor's a little worried that she'll cave in again," a source close to Taylor tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively.
Taylor's tactics may be working, but Justin's recent comments — about wanting to get married and start a family — may be what Selena's been waiting to hear. In the past, a source told us that Selena wants to be with a real man, not someone who's immature.
Justin Bieber: Ready For The Family Life?
Justin recently revealed that he wants "to get married and start a family," according to an interview with Us Weekly. He adds, "My grandparents Bruce and Diane Dale are my relationship role models. They love each other so much, after so many years! When I'm their age, I want to be as in love with my wife as my grandfather is with his."
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Should Selena and Justin get back together? Is Taylor being a good friend, or should she mind her own business?

Ithink justin $ selena will comme back together b/c ey are love for each other in them.if justin witch to make a familly he should make it with the girl he is really in love.i know selena is 1 yr older than u but out with more older will not help to forget her.jordi isn't a girl 4 u.
Posted at 1:35 AM on June 29, 2013
I think that even though they were very cute together, if they don't love each other anymore, then don't get back together. Or what if she still has feelings for him? You can have feelings for someone but if they do something that's a bad influence, you shouldn't be with them. I love and respect Selena, so to all haters out there mind your own business. I can have my opinions and you can have your's.

If they truly love each other it doesn't matter who else you date
or how good looking they are. You will find a way back to each other
Like I said before Justin I hope you don't regret your decisions because without a doubt Sel will find another guy. Oh ! And that douchbag video Sel is in she didn't plan that video the singer wanted her in it and its her job so why not.Good luck to both Sel and Justin..

If Selena cares about who Justin is dating, she probably isn't over him. Once you're done, you don't care who you ex is dating. I don't know if Taylor is doing the right thing. She knows JB more than we do so I guess she knows if he is toxic and unreliable. They should both date other people but with no strings attached. Just let things flow. Things get bad when people just meet each other, then the next week they jump into bed. The minute that happens, the magic is gone. :(

Beliebers calm down Selena and Justin was spotted last night at a movie theater. went in right when the movie started and left before it ended to avoid fans. But one fans ask him to take an picture he told her not the right time for it. But if taylor really doing this she does need to mind her own business because If she set them up and it ends badly. maybe some of her old fans are helping her out and convice Selena or to give just another go. Did miley call selena and tell her what went on with him and her.

i think Taylor's trying to be a good friend but i honestly can't say if she's pushing her in the right direction. to be honest, i've been trying to follow whats been happening bc i'm a selena fan, but I'm just plain confused on what's happening. someone please explain objectively whats going on?

Maybe Swift with the boys should go play with her sex toys and mind her own business. There is no confirmed evidence Justin has cheated on her. Notice he has not been seen with that other woman nor have we heard of her since. Now is there video or picture evidence of kissing, only the word of pissed workers at that Skydiving facility.

I really have another to respect her when she does that, She forgive him because she really loves him and she loved and lived with Justin before his bad behaviors and she really hope to make the good or the real JB back again the one who loved, to me she is so good and grown with a heart full of love for him, I really see the love in her eyes when she talked about what is the song " love will remember " is about really hope they get married someday
Posted at 8:50 PM on June 28, 2013
They need to take a break from each other and date other people. While dating other people, if Selena and JB keep thinking about each other, THEN they should reconcile. They will never know if they are in a TRUE LOVE scenario unless they date other people. But I guarentee if Miley gets freed up, JB will drop Selena.
Posted at 9:22 PM on June 28, 2013
I agree with you on that miley thing. What do they think they been doing. David henrie was a date and all thou that ed sheehan I think that was a date as well and then austin manhone was a date. But Justin and selena was seen together last night at a movie theater but he refused to take a picture for a fan he said it wasn't the right time for it. They were also see together at a party but that person sign a confiedent argeement with mean she could take any picture. He been seen with mulitple girls as well. but the fan did recivce ticket for his show for not being able to take he picture.

Can you say sticker shock? O.K. I've pushed my eyeballs back in my head and wiped away the tears. I do like it. Very handsome piece. I might even take a look at one.

Can you say sticker shock? O.K. I've pushed my eyeballs back in my head and wiped away the tears. I do like it. Very handsome piece. I might even take a look at one.
Question Everything!
Very close to the same size as Ruger SR40c, although slightly heavier. Overall I really like the dimensions. The price is crazy though, they are pricing it assuming demand is going to be really high, no way that gun (even a Sig) should cost the same as, or more than, its bigger brother.
Still would be a nice fit in my collection I think.
I'm a huge Sig fan as my handle suggests, but the MSRP of this gun is ridiculous. I fear Sig has lost its way, i.e. P250, P290 and now this.
Does anyone here actually pay MSRP for a gun?
If you want a gun in those dimensions and half the cost go with the CZ RAMI. It will accept the full size CZ 75 magazines if you want additional round count.

Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep. It starts when you're always afraid... Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth
you hit it right on the head, my friend. My local GS owner said that SIGs do well up north and in more affluent areas as
money is not near the object it is in Mouseville where husband and wife are working two minimum wage jobs just to make ends meet. I could afford a SIG, but could never justify an $1,100 subcompact pistol when my Glocks and M&P's do the job just as well for 40% of the cost of a new SIG. I drive a Toyota, shop at Walmart, and have a very modest home. Owning a SIG would make me think I actually had money.
Climate also has a lot to do with SIGs not selling in Orlando. When its 95 degrees every day for six months out of the year, gun owners want small and light.....and that does not describe many in the SIG lineup. Glock 19, G26 are about as large as I can go in the dead of the summer blast furnace.
Kimbers are the guns you show your friends....Glocks are the ones you show your enemies.
not worth the price tag imo. Sig hasnt made a better smaller gun than the P239

Yeah, it's an old thread, but I took a look recently since I thought it would be nice to have a BUG that takes 226 mags. Nice pistol, but big for a BUG, and even at LEO/Mil pricing it's steep (just shy of $800 with nightsights). For $100 more, I could pick up their TACOPS 1911 with 4 mags. Not that those two pistols have much more to do with each other besides their manufacturer, but I want the latter one more!
Even if you're dying to buy one...I'd wait a year to get the 'kinks' out...

Under the guise of religious compassion, the Christian Right is intensifying its anti-gay campaign at a time when hate crimes against lesbians and gay men, like the fatal assault on 22-year-old Wyoming college student Matthew Shepard, are still pervasive, a new study shows.
The so-called "ex-gay" movement, now being touted in television ads across the country, asserts that people can be "converted" to heterosexuality by embracing fundamentalist Christian doctrine or through "reparative therapy." These claims have been rejected by the medical community and repudiated by most national religious organizations.
The ex-gay movement "provides political cover for a significant new phase of the Christian Right's long-running anti-gay campaign," according to the report, "Calculated Compassion: How the Ex-Gay Movement Serves The Right's Attack on Democracy." The three-year study is the first comprehensive examination of the political role of this movement. It was commissioned by the Boston-based research center Political Research Associates (PRA), the Policy Institute of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in Washington, D.C., and Equal Partners in Faith, a national network of religious leaders.
"The Christian Right has been under pressure to soften its homophobic rhetoric," said Surina Khan, author of the report and a PRA research analyst. "The ex-gay movement provides a 'kinder, gentler' camouflage for pursuing its political objectives. It's no coincidence that this movement and its message are being strenuously promoted in the run-up to the elections."
The report provides evidence that "most mainstream religious leaders and religious organizations...do not share the views of the ex-gay movement about homosexuality." The Family Research Council, the Christian Coalition and other promoters of the ex-gay movement assert that homosexuality is a "sin to be overcome," said Khan. That view not only allows that gay people are denied constitutional rights on religious grounds, she said. It contradicts the beliefs of most communities of faith in the country, including the Roman Catholic Church, the National Council of Churches, and the Union of American Hebrew Congregations.
The report reiterates that the ex-gay movement, while posing as a religious-based initiative, is part of a wider political assault on the civil rights of the gay community. "The Christian Right's message about ex-gay conversion echoes the sentiment of our political adversaries," said Kerry Lobel, Executive Director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. "We have already seen a chorus of anti-gay rhetoric in Congress, as well as the alarming persistence of anti-gay hate crimes. The fundamentalists have forged an alliance with those in Congress and other elected offices bent on denying constitutional rights to this segment of the population."
The Rev. Meg Riley, co-chair of Equal Partners in Faith, said religious leaders have not spoken out enough in defense of pluralism and tolerance in recent years. "The ex-gay movement has gone largely unchallenged in many faith communities, giving the Christian right a powerful vehicle for justifying discrimination in the name of religion. "
The report also documents that the ex-gay movement is devoid of reputable scholarship. Major professional institutions including the American Psychological Association and the American Medical Association have long rejected the notion that lesbians and gay men can be "cured." Homosexuality was removed from the APA's official list of emotional and mental disorders 25 years ago.
The Rev. Ken Brooker Langston of Equal Partners in Faith worries that the ex-gay movement will lead to "intolerance in the name of will be influenced by an idea that is not only bad science but bogus theology," he said. "The faith community is no place to promote discrimination of any kind."
