Destin Towers, chosen in 2007 by Southern Living Magazine as a 'TOP PICK' Destin family condo, is on the Destin beach and direct Gulf-front. Interior features include 9 foot smooth ceilings; crown molding; tile and bamboo floors; gourmet kitchen with island, wet bar, Silestone counter and bar tops, and stainless steel appliances; and a spa-quality master suite with luxury walk-in shower (see photos), 3 shower heads plus 4 body sprays.

This condominium has all the comforts of home. Tastefully decorated, Villa Champagne offers more than 1950 square feet of living space, so you will be able to enjoy your time indoors as much as your time on the beach.
Destin Towers is a gated resort, with modern electronic security at all accesses (even the beach gate), so you will feel safe and secure during your relaxing stay.
Travel Channel Viewers have just voted Destin as the 'Best Family Beach 2013' In Travel Channel's online poll for the Best Family Beach of 2013, the Destin area received 43 percent of the votes cast for the best beach destination for a family. Also in the running were the Outer Banks, N.C., Paradise Island in the Bahamas and Cape Cod, Mass. "This didn't just happen," said Dan O'Byrne, director of Okaloosa County's tourist development department. "The focus on the family is in our DNA. Our attributes are self- evident from our accommodations, our beaches, our people. We've been the family vacation spot for decades.
Southern Living magazines recommends Destin Towers: The April 2007 edition of Southern Living Magazine contains a feature article on vacationing in Destin called the 'Destin Family Beach Guide.' You can go to Southern Living on line, and search Destin to find the Southern Living Destin Family Beach Guide Slide Show. The feature includes information on lodging, activities, restaurants, and shopping. The authors conclude that when vacationing in Destin, renting a condo is the way to go, but choosing a condo can be tricky. To assist the reader, the authors list their top picks in the 'Condo Favorites' section of the article, and name Destin Towers as one of the top picks, noting that after a few days at Destin Towers, you will feel more like a resident than a visitor.
Beach and beach services: Beach service is available from March - November at very reasonable daily or weekly rates. Destin Towers is a low density condominium and owns the Gulf-front beach. There are only 45 units in Destin Towers, and only about half of them are available for rental, so the common areas are uncrowded, and you won't have to jostle to get that 'front row' beach spot. Also, with two elevators, you won't be wasting valuable vacation time waiting for an elevator.
This is a non-smoking condominium. No pets are allowed. Minimum age for renters is 26 years old.

Destin wins Travel Channel's Best Family Beach 2013: 'Focus on the family is in our DNA'
Published: Friday, March 8, 2013 at 13:56 PM.
DESTIN — What Emerald Coast residents have known for years has been confirmed with the Travel Channel's online poll for the Best Family Beach of 2013.
The Destin area received 43 percent of the votes cast for the best beach destination for a family. Also in the running were the Outer Banks, N.C., Paradise Island in the Bahamas and Cape Cod, Mass.
"This didn't just happen," said Dan O'Byrne, director of Okaloosa County's tourist development department. "The focus on the family is in our DNA. Our attributes are self- evident from our accommodations, our beaches, our people. We've been the family vacation spot for decades.
Once you spend any time visiting Destin, you yearn to own a piece of its beauty. We were looking for a property in 2004, but were very frustrated. Then our realtor discovered that the contract to purchase this Penthouse unit, now called Villa Champagne, had fallen through. When we first saw the unit, we decided to buy this beautiful condo, right on the Gulf of Mexico, with TWO balconies facing the beautiful Destin beach and the Gulf.
This is a Penthouse unit, with 9 foot ceilings, a spacious kitchen, and plenty of space for everyone. Destin Towers could not be in a more convenient, central location. Destin Towers is one of the very few condominiums located directly on the beach and Gulf, yet also located on the main thoroughfare in Destin, Highway 98 East (also known as Emerald Coast Parkway). However, it is set far away from the main highway by a lengthy driveway (300+ yards). Destin Towers is a low-density condo complex with a large beach, meaning you will have plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy the Destin beach. There is nothing except our beautiful pool and spa between you and Destin Towers private beach walkover.
Villa Champagne is located on the 15th floor, offering sweeping and panoramic views of the Destin Beach and Gulf from the two large Gulf-front balconies. On the Penthouse levels, there are only two units per floor for maximum privacy. The floor plan was brilliantly designed, giving the feel of a home, not the long 'corridor' style seen in many other beach condos.
Villa Champagne has been tastefully decorated in keeping with the high level of luxury and prestige fitting for a beach-front penthouse.
There is no hyperbole in the description of this beautiful oceanfront condo. When you walk trough the door you feel as if you have walked into the pages of "House Beautiful". Unlike many condos we have rented, everything we need was provded, and Gerry called us on the first day to assure that all was well. Try Commander's Palace for a great gourmet dinner, and should you care to cook for yourself in the well-appointed kitchen, go to Destin Ice Seafood for their fresh shrimp, home made key lime pie, and prepared foods from their deli. Acme Oyster House at the wharf in SanDestin is great as well. Golfers will enjoy playing at Emerald Bay Golf Club (bring an extra sleeve of balls as there is water all around!)
The condo and the building are very well maintained. The building is in a great location. The condo is the full eastern half of the 15th floor and it comes with an assigned covered parking space very close to the elevator. You walk past the beautiful pool and hot tub to get to the best sand I have ever seen. All rooms are nice sized. The living room and master bedroom/bathroom are quite large. There is no photo trickery in the listing. What they show is what you will see.
We had a wonderful stay over Thanksgiving week. The penthouse was absolutely beautiful, decorated impeccably and kitchen well stocked. The master shower was jaw dropping and had a true spa-like feel. The penthouse was right on the beach with three balconies for amazing views. The weather was a little chilly the week we were there, but the kids found plenty to do and undeterred to get in the frigid waters. My only complaint is that the pool was unheated, though the hot tub provided excellent water play in the cool weather. Gerry, the owner, was easy to deal with and a pleasure to talk to. I would definitely stay here again. We had an amazing trip. And the penthouse definitely played the biggest part.
We never stayed at a condo before till now. The penthouse was amazing,very clean,lots of room and the views from the 15th floor were awsome. You see things that high up that you would never see from a house or ground floor. Gerry and Diane were very helpfull in all our questions and kept us well informed and made booking this condo very easy and stress free. We are already planning our next trip back to Destin at the same condo. Thanks again ...we had a wonderfull time and was VERY HARD to leave the condo and Destin.
Spent one week in Villa Champagne as my nephew was being commissioned at nearby Hurlbert AFB. Could not have made a better choice to stay, this Villa is even better than advertised on the website! It is on the 15th floor of the Destin Towers, a smaller, family-friendly complex on the beach. The Villa has over 2000 square feet and 500 feet of balconies, and the master bedroom is to die for! The views of the gulf from the balcony are awesome, and we were able to watch dolpins play while eating breakfast each day. Hated to eat anywhere else, but the restaurants nearby over some of the best seafood on the gulf - oysters, shrimp, scallops - you name it. Beautiful uncrowded pool and hottub, just steps from the glorious beach. Gerry and Diane go out of their way to make sure everything goes well during your stay. Covered parking is a plus, as is the security gate. The Villa accomodates nine very comfortably, and it has a huge kitchen. This was our first time to Destin, and are so happy with our condo choice. We definitely will be coming back, and Villa Champagne will always be our first choice if available!!
We have seen Destin Towers on prior visits but would have never thought about staying there? Why? from the outside it seems small and just never saw it on the internet. But there are definite advantages to staying in a smaller building: not as many people on the beachfront there for sure! parking in and out easier and also love the covererd parking space! Then once you get inside this enormous condo, you won't believe it! It's as great or better than the pictures! The living space is HUGE, which was one of the biggest draws for us. The two balconies were also huge with great furniture for hanging out there. We also appreciated a great kitchen, very spacious with ample supplies for us. We had a little AC problems, but the owner worked diligently to remedy that! It is a little different not having a front desk like previous condos we have visited, but we discovered we really didn't need it.
The walls are thin however, and you do hear a lot of noise, especially from the floor above. And one of our neighbors had a yelping dog for part of our visit-again, because the walls were thin is why I'm sure we heard this. However this didn't put a damper on our trip, just some feedback.
Our favorite restaurant was, of course, The Back Porch!! Also enjoyed AJ's, Harry T's, The Crab Trap & Dewey Destin's. Next time, we plan on visiting Harbor Docks and Louisiana Lagniappe. Can't wait for next time! The owners also have a 2 BR in this same building (Chateau Champagne) that we may try out too for a smaller crowd!
Thanks so much Gerry & Diane for sharing your home with us!

Mumbai, Sep 21 (IANS) Bollywood actress Sridevi, who walked the ramp for ace designer Neeta Lulla as the show stopper at the Lakme Fashion Week, came across as very nervous and saved herself twice from falling flat on the ramp.
The beautiful actress, who was sporting a silverish-grey body-fitting gown made an impressive entry on the ramp but soon her nervousness came to the fore as she was found struggling with the train of her dress.
However, the actress still found the experience of walking the ramp quite pleasant. 'It was great but at the same time very hard for me,' she told reporters here.
The designer was elated too and revealed: 'It was fantastic that on my 25th anniversary Sridevi walked the ramp and so many people actually made it to the show.'
When asked about the actress' nervousness, Lulla clarified: 'As far as I think, it happens some times when you walk the ramp after a long time.'
Lulla's show, which showcased a collection inspired by the repository of work done by her over the last 25 years in both pret as well as couture, boasted of Bollywood celebrities like Rani Mukherji, Hema Malini, Yash Chopra, Mugdha Godse, Tabu, Juhi Chawla and Amisha Patel, among others.
Actors Akshay Kumar, Rannvijay and director Vipul Shah also came down to attend the show in a retro avatar to promote their forthcoming film 'Action Replayy'. The film also stars Aishwarya Rai and is slated to hit screens Nov 5.
'I really enjoyed the show. Till this Diwali, I will come only in retro look. I don't think any look has been as good as of the 1970s,' Akshay said.
As far as the collection goes, the ensembles were a mix of western and Indian designs in a deluge of colours including beige, silver, yellow, orange, green, blue, pink, lilac and red.
Embellishments and Swarovski crystals were also used to marl the silver jubilee of the brand.

Bollywood actor Bipasha Basu says that boredom is something that she cannot stand
New Delhi: For dusky beauty Bipasha Basu, life is much more than the silver screen. She spent some time exploring her plans and ambitions. Read on.
Boredom is something that Bollywood actor Bipasha Basu cannot stand.
The gorgeous artiste left the glitzy world of professional modelling precisely for this reason, foraying into the highly competitive world of Hindi films.
The chief guest at an exhibition of lithographs here in the Capital this past Friday, Bipasha is clear about one thing — she will switch over to direction or script writing the day she gets fed up with acting.
Surprisingly Bipasha never aspired to become an actress in the first place.
"At the moment, I am enjoying acting and am open to interesting offers. I don't want to do every role that comes my way.
"The role has to be a substantial one and must make me feel good. I don't want to accept roles just for the sake of money."
Stating that the Hindi film industry is witnessing a boom these days, Bipasha says: "Several heroes or heroines have appeared on the scene, but the top notch actors do just one or two films a year. Besides Bollywood,
"I am open to the idea of doing European, American or Bengali movies."
Recalling her modelling days, the dusky actor says: "I won the Ford Supermodel of the World contest at a young age and became an international model overnight.
"Besides sashaying down the ramp, I also did campaigns abroad for three years. When I got bored with modelling in New York and Paris, I decided to return home."
Back in Mumbai, Bipasha got an offer from the Abbas-Mustan duo to play a negative role in 'Ajnabee' starring Akshay Kumar, Bobby Deol and Kareena Kapoor. "I accepted the offer as I found it interesting because it was not a stereotypical college-girl role."
Among other roles she has essayed, Bipasha donned the police uniform in 'Dhoom' and 'Dhoom II'. No wonder then that she looks up to senior police officer Kiran Bedi.
"Though I don't know Kiran Bedi personally, I know she is doing fantastic work in her field. However, I didn't do any research on her before playing a cop."
Over the years Bipasha has learnt to take uncharitable comments in her stride.
On the controversy surrounding the kiss with an international soccer player during the Seven Wonders of the World contest in Lisbon, Bipasha says: "Critics wrote nasty things about me when I was representing my country at the contest.
"But I was not upset because there are too many newspapers and channels and there is intense competition among them over who comes out first with the news.
"Fifty per cent of these people (journalists) don't want to do such stories, but they need sensational stuff."
One person whom Bipasha really admires is animal rights crusader Maneka Gandhi.
"I am actually inspired by the work she is doing for animals and the way she addresses issues concerning them. I think all women should admire her for rescuing and rehabilitating sick and needy animals.
"Through her organisation People for Animals, she runs shelters, ambulance services and undertakes sterilisation programmes for dogs."
Bipasha is fond of animals, especially dogs and cats. "At home in Mumbai, I have a three-year-old dog. In Kolkata, I had 16 cats and had given them all different names."
Even though Bipasha loves animals, she admits that like a typical Bengali she relishes non-vegetarian food.
"But I don't eat non-vegetarian stuff at home as my younger sister has turned a vegetarian and has even stopped using leather bags."
Children issues and global warming are also close to her heart.
"As an actor or celebrity it is necessary that we take up such issues," she says.

Area law enforcement drained a pond late Wednesday on property in Burke County where they've been searching for missing 10-year-old Zahra Baker.
The land is owned by a family who runs tree trimming company where Zahra's father, Adam, works. It is an area where mulch, wood chips and heavy equipment are all stored. Hickory Police Deputy Chief Clyde Deal said there was nothing specific they were looking for.
"We always want to err on the side of doing more than you need to than not doing as much as you should have done," he said.
The sound of children's laughter drifted Wednesday night from the playground at East Hickory Baptist Church, a painful reminder for everyone gathered there of one child who was noticeably absent.
East Hickory Baptist Church hosted a candlelight vigil Wednesday evening at the church playground to honor missing 10-year-old Zahra Clare Baker.
"A child's life should be something of joy, of fun and laughter," said David King, chairman of deacons at East Hickory Baptist. "Not of tragedy that evidently has happened with this young child."
A Hickory man was convicted this week in Catawba County Superior Criminal Court of two felony charges.
Ricky Dean Reina, 25, was convicted of felony first-degree kidnapping and felony larceny of a motor vehicle. Reina was sentenced to prison for no less than 44 months and no more than 58 months.
The incident occurred in February when Reina stole a vehicle from the Sunhouse gas station on U.S. 70 in Hickory. The car was running at the time, and a child was inside.
Reina drove the car a short distance and then let the child get out of the vehicle.
It's time.
That's what members of the Catawba Valley Pride Inc. say about Catawba County's upcoming gay pride event, the first held in the county.
The event is scheduled for Oct. 15-17 at various locations across the county, from Lenoir-Rhyne University to area churches.
"I have gotten many e-mails with people saying, 'It's time, and we're wishing you the best in turnout,'" said Christy Austin, Catawba Valley Pride president. "We're really excited for this event."
HICKORY, N.C. — Investigators used a police dog to search among tree-trimming equipment and piles of mulch for a missing 10-year-old North Carolina girl on Wednesday, a day after authorities said they believed the girl had been killed.
Hours earlier, Zahra Clare Baker's stepmother showed no emotion in court as a judge explained she could be sentenced to up to 30 months in prison if convicted of obstruction of justice. Elisa Baker is accused of trying to throw off investigators with a fake ransom note.
A candlelight vigil is scheduled for Zahra Baker, a 10-year-old disabled child who was reported missing during the weekend.
The public vigil is set for Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. at East Hickory Baptist Church on 16th Street Southeast in Hickory.
The stepmother of a missing Hickory girl appeared in court Wednesday under a felony obstruction of justice charge.
Elisa Baker, 42, stepmother of missing 10-year-old Zahra Clare Baker, walked into a courtroom in the Catawba County Justice Center on Wednesday morning wearing a pink jumpsuit and handcuffs.
Baker's bond for the felony obstruction of justice charge is set at $40,000. Her court-appointed attorney, Scott Reilly, said he plans to file a motion to reduce Baker's bond. The process could take about five days, he said.
HICKORY, N.C. (AP) — To relatives and former neighbors, Elisa Baker had a short fuse. In interviews and court documents, they portrayed her as nasty-tempered and willing to use a gun or her fists to settle an argument and say her disabled stepdaughter usually bore the brunt of her rage.
Investigators said Tuesday they believe someone killed 10-year-old Zahra Clare Baker, who was reported missing over the weekend. Baker was scheduled to appear in court Wednesday, accused of trying to throw off investigators with a fake ransom note.

WALNUT CREEK, CA --- Termites -- notorious for their voracious appetite for wood, rendering houses to dust and causing billions of dollars in damage per year -- may provide the biochemical means to a greener biofuel future. The bellies of these tiny beasts actually harbor a gold mine of microbes that have now been tapped as a rich source of enzymes for improving the conversion of wood or waste biomass to valuable biofuels.
The genomic sequencing and analysis of the termite gut microbes by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI), the California Institute of Technology, Verenium Corporation (formerly Diversa), a biofuels company, INBio, the National Biodiversity Institute of Costa Rica, and the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center, are highlighted in the November 22 edition of the journal Nature.
"The termite is a remarkable machine," said Dr. Raymond L. Orbach, Under Secretary for Science, U.S. Department of Energy, whose program supports DOE JGI. "Termites can digest a frightening amount of wood in a very short time, as anyone who has had termites in their house is painfully aware. Instead of using harsh chemicals or excess heat to do so, termites employ an array of specialized microbes in their hindguts to break down the cell walls of plant material and catalyze the digestion process. Industrial-scale DNA sequencing by DOE JGI was key to identifying the genetic structures that comprise the tools that termites use. Our task now is to discover the metabolic pathways generated by these structures to figure out how nature digests plant materials. We can then synthesize the novel enzymes discovered through this project to accelerate the delivery of the next generation of cellulosic biofuels."
While termites have been the subject of keen scientific study for more than a century, the precise identity and role of the microbes from their digestive tract remained a mystery. With this new work, the symbiotic o

Just off the heels of the Albuquerque Police Department's evaluations by the Department of Justice, the family of a woman, who was a victim of a state police officer's excessive violence, rallied together April 11 in to get justice for a life that was cut short.
Jeanette Anaya, 39, was driving along a Santa Fe street Nov. 7, when State Police Officer Oliver Wilson attempted to stop her for making a "wobbly" right turn. Anaya did not stop and Wilson gave pursuit. Dashboard camera show the pursuit and the police car slam into Anaya's vehicle. Wilson then got out of his cruiser, ran along side of Anaya's vehicle and fired 16 shots — two of them killing Anaya. There are conflicting stories on whether the passenger in Anaya's car was injured, at least physically.
I knew Jeanette and her family well. From what it seems to me is, she panicked for whatever reason and fled in the direction of her home. When the officer hit her car, the camera shows (at least to me) that she is still trying to get away, not run the cop over as he said.

Tamil Nadu which dominated the Ranji Trophy semifinal against Mumbai — from the post lunch session last Tuesday and thereafter took a first innings lead of 202 runs — confirmed its entry into the tournament final here on Friday.
Led by Laxmipathi Balaji, Tamil Nadu will now take on the defending champion Rajasthan in the final at Chennai from January 19. Rajasthan had got the better of Tamil Nadu in the semifinal of the last season played at Jaipur before it outwitted Baroda in the final played at the Moti Bagh Palace ground.
While the Southern team left the venue on Friday with happy memories, Mumbai's Balwinder Singh Sandhu (jr) too left the stadium with a pleasant feeling of bagging ten wickets in a Ranji trophy match for the first time.
He bowled with enthusiasm, energy and skill in his long stint of 33 plus overs, bagged five wickets for the third time in three matches and ended his debut season on a high note. The 24-year-old seamer took five for 88 in the first innings and five for 74 in the second for a match haul of 10 for 162.
Sandhu (jr) was responsible for the fall of the four Tamil Nadu batsmen on the last day. He dismissed M. Vijay (142, 367m, 250b, 21x4, 2x6), R. Prasanna, Sunny Gupta and L. Balaji before the declaration came leaving the home team a fourth innings target of 534 runs in 44 overs. But after Abhishek Nayar and Suryakumar Yadav made some runs and increased their aggregate for the season, the teams decided to bring a halt to the proceedings before the start of the 15th mandatory over.
"We have shown mental strength and character right through the season and I am very happy that R. Prasanna and Yomahesh showed it again for us to recover from 139 for six. Prasanna has been a consistent performer in the league and he brings in plenty of experience. We have a good batting line up with the top four having played for India. At the start of the season I believed that the team's bowling unit should hunt in a pack and that's what we have done,'' said Balaji.
Tamil Nadu — 1st innings: 359.
Mumbai — 1st innings: 157.
Tamil Nadu — 2nd innings: Abhinav Mukund b Waingankar 42, M. Vijay C Shah b Sandhu (jr) 142, S. Badrinath b Chavan 23, D. Karthik b Sandhu (jr) 4, K.S. Vasudevadas c Yadav b Waingankar 36, R. Prasanna c Pawar b Sandhu (jr) 44, S. Gupta b Sandhu 13, V. Yomahesh (not out) 6, L. Balaji c&b Sandhu (jr) 4, Extras (b-1, lb-7, nb-4, w-5) 17, Total (for 8 wkts in 113. 1 overs) 331.
Fall of wkts: 1-90, 2-129, 3-134, 4-219, 5-268, 6-320, 7-321, 8-331.
Mumbai bowling: Kulkarni 10-4-27-0, Sandhu (jr) 33.1-10-74-5, Waingankar 29-7-86-2, Nayar 2-0-14-0, Powar 7-2-17-0, Chavan 28-5-102-1, Yadav 1-1-0-0, Pawar 3-1-3-0.
Mumbai: 2nd innings: K. Pawar c Badrinath b Kaushik 0, A. Nayar c Gupta b Kaushik 22, H. Shah (not out) 29, S. Yadav c Prasanna b Srinivas 33, A. Chavan not out 1, Extras (lb3) 3, Total (for 3 wkts in 29 overs) 88.
Fall of wkts: 1-4, 2-25, 3-79.
Tamil Nadu bowling: Kaushik 4-2-6-2, Yomahesh 3-2-18-0, Gupta 7-1-26-0, Srinivas 11-3-27-1, Vijay 4-1-8-0.

Anatomy of a flop
What makes one production hit it big, and another show bites the dust of ignominy—with great alacrity? A producer once intimated to us that the difference between a hit and a flop can be quite slight. Not all the judicious planning and money in the world can assure the creation of a blockbuster. On the other hand, a movie produced for just peanuts some years ago ended up making over a hundred million dollars!
Will the presence of big stars do the trick? Much of the time, but definitely not always. Sex and violence? They're compelling attractions—but could also end up as major turnoffs.
An unusual story, beautifully told? Ditto. Film awards and triumphs at international festivals. Yes—up to a point.
Perhaps we can learn valuable lessons from the sad experiences of some musical-theater producers, who invested a lot of money in some "exciting" projects—but got only pain (no gain!) in exchange:
Take, for instance, the financier behind the 1986 musical, "Into the Light," which was about—the Shroud of Turin! Now, why would anybody in his right mind think that there would be a huge audience for such esoteric and quasi-religious hoo-hah?
What about "Bring Back Birdie?" We loved the original musical, "Bye Bye Birdie," but not enough to want to see the production of a new show that updated the story and showed us what happened to its lead characters, two decades later! Alas, the new production cravenly bit the dust after only four performances.
"One Night Stand" similarly failed to interest let alone excite theatergoers with its story about—a suicide! Not exactly a fun evening, huh? The show was so dismally dark that it never even got to the Great White Way, and literally "died" during its trial run.
Sometimes, the problem appears to stem from the overly grandiose intentions of a musical project. For instance, "Gone With the Wind" was already a big novel and a movie about the civil war in the States—so, why would anybody want to turn it into an even bigger and more ostentatious musical? In 1970, however, that's exactly what happened with "Scarlett" (for its female protagonist, Scarlett O'Hara).
Sadly, but all too expectedly, the lumbering production bled to death—again, even before making it to Broadway.
To make things worse (some lessons are never learned), another musical on the US civil war was produced in 1999, and met a similarly fatal end.
Not enough support
On the local show biz scene, the flops have generally been less eggregious, mostly the result of artistic ambition not finding enough support from local viewers. For instance, the film, "Mortal," played to near-empty houses, as did the similarly well-intentioned and significant "Portrait of the Artist as Filipino."
And, one of Dolphy's few failures in terms of audience support was his take on "Cyrano de Bergerac," which was sensitively acted by him but was rejected by viewers who didn't want him to stop playing the clown—and fool.

Holmes: 2-QB system no good in NFL
One team, two quarterbacks. Santonio Holmes thinks that's a no-go.
The Jets wide receiver told NFL Network on Monday night that he doubts an NFL team can succeed by using a two-quarterback system, despite the fact New York plans to use both starter Mark Sanchez and backup Tim Tebow during games this season.
''No, I don't think so,'' Holmes said. ''You have to allow one quarterback to get into the rhythm of the game. It starts from the preparation in practice, knowing the first couple of plays that he's going to take these reps. It's getting a feel for coming onto the field with the crowd awaiting you. It's the making the mistakes early in the game to finishing the games at the end. You don't just change a guy out just because he has a few mistakes early in a game.
''I think coming into this season that we have a lot to expect from Sanchez.''
The Jets have insisted that Sanchez is the undisputed starter and will take the bulk of the snaps, but Tebow will be heavily involved in the offense. While it might not necessarily be a two-quarterback attack, coach Rex Ryan has speculated that Tebow could be in for as many as 20 snaps, depending on the game plan. That means Sanchez could come off the field for some of those plays.
Regardless, Holmes thinks Tebow's role will be defined and not disrupt the rhythm of Sanchez or the rest of new coordinator Tony Sparano's offense.
''Tebow's going to have plays where he comes in and plays,'' Holmes said. ''Whether he plays at quarterback, Sanchez is on the field or off the field, those are the plays that Coach has designed for Tebow to run that week. I'm pretty sure he's going to get them done and he's going to do his job just as well as any other quarterback would when they get an opportunity to get on the field.''
Holmes participated in Sanchez's ''Jets West'' camp in Southern California last week and said it was a ''wonderful'' opportunity for the offensive players to bond.
WHO'S TEBOWING?Even celebrities have ripped off Tim Tebow's signature move.
''Tebow looked pretty good, he was on target,'' Holmes said. ''Sanchez has done everything that he can do to keep his starting spot. I'm thinking that he's going to be our guy this season. I'm not saying that with any bit of less confidence than the way I feel about him coming into this season. He's going to be our guy that we depended on for the past couple of years and he's going to get the job done this year.''
Holmes and Sanchez were in the middle of locker room tension that helped derail the Jets' season last year, capped by Holmes being benched in the season finale at Miami after arguing in the huddle.
Former Jets running back LaDainian Tomlinson recently said on ''The Rich Eisen Podcast'' that Holmes could be a problem again if he's not getting his catches, but hopes the receiver learned from what went on last season.
''When you have a playmaker on the field that wants to help his team as much as myself and L.T. does, you have to find a way to get them the ball,'' Holmes said. ''You have to find a way to allow these guys to be great teammates and by fulfilling those needs is one way of allowing a guy to be a great teammate.''

Robert Bowling Will Buy Battlefield 3
Posted on July 19, 2011 AT 09:41am
Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling has stated that he will be buying Battlefield 3 once it releases.
He has today told Eurogamer that there is no reason why any shooter fan wouldn't want to own both titles and I personally agree.
EA has been digging at both Activision and Infinity Ward for months now however Bowling said that it"doesn't really get to us".
"I'm very aware that we have two very different audiences and we're
delivering two very good and very different experiences, so I think the
baiting is built up more of these two really passionate communities
and they should be really passionate about their individual games
getting at each other, and that's been happening forever,"
When asked if he would be buying Battlefield 3 he replied "I am";
"I think that would be a misconception, I think
there is definitely room. If you are a shooter fan, you should be
getting both, because they're both going to be excellent experiences."

It explores the role of spirituality in healthcare
CHENNAI: A two day seminar on religion and terminal illness that began here on Thursday explores the role of spirituality in providing better and holistic care. According to the participants of the seminar, being organised by the Department of Christian Studies, University of Madras, 'terminal illness' does not mean end-of-life but it provides an opportunity to the caregiver and the patient to be equipped and face disability caused by a disease.
Oncologists, palliative care experts and social scientists analysed the various aspects including the impact of socio-economic and cultural factors, struggles and coping strategies of patients and caregivers.
George M. Chandy, professor of gastroenterology and former Director of Christian Medical College, Vellore, in his keynote address dwelt on his experiences as a medical practitioner and a caregiver. He recalled instances from his experiences with patients and relatives who could not come to terms with their ailments. Patients go through a period of denial, aggression, entertainment, withdrawal and acceptance. A terminal ill person has low self-esteem, suffers loss of confidence and fears the unknown. It is these problems that palliative care addresses, he explained.
Social Welfare Minister P. Geetha Jeevan, who inaugurated the seminar, urged non-governmental organisations to create more awareness about government healthcare schemes. It was the NGOs, who helped spread awareness about the supply of anti-retroviral drugs for persons with HIV/AIDS, she said.
P. Duraisamy, Registrar in-charge of the University, congratulated the department in taking up issues of critical importance.
The seminar, he observed, would dwell on the experience of the medical practitioners and their ability to help those terminally ill.
Head of the Christian Studies G. Patrick said currently two research scholars were doing research on the role of religion and terminal illness.

BLACKFOOT — Three 4-H members were recognized for their leadership last year.
Chase Herbst, son of Layne and Michaelene Herbst, received the Spirit of 4-H Award. He received $200 for this award that is sponsored by Randy and Julie Wilmot.
"I think this award is amazing," Herbst said. "I like to help the kids and helping to keep the program going." He turns 18 on Saturday and figures the money will go into his truck.
Casey Rosin, son of Matt and Chris Jones, won the Key Award. He has participated in showing swine and sheep and promotes 4-H by making presentations at school and at the Lions Club.
"I like helping younger kids out with their project," Rosin said. "Through 4-H, I've learned a lot of responsibility."
Shayna Rosin, Casey's sister, won a watch from Wells Fargo for her work with younger kids.
"My greatest achievement is helping younger kids find solutions," Rosin said. "I've learned leadership and skills to help you in life."

I've lived in NYC for the past 3 years and I just moved to LA. I love to travel and I am always saving for some type of vacation...and I actually like to work. I come from an Israeli family that my friends have told me I should write short stories about. Too bad I have no interest in that, but am well-rehearsed at story telling.
There's no city like NYC, but I'm so excited to have moved to LA to live the west coast beach life. I'm looking for someone who is laid back and has their own life and goals to pursue-and prefers a quick phone call (only like 2 minutes! I'm about to get on the subway) over a text message.
I endure watching sports and NFL RedZone is totally worth the extra charge because I can't resist the guarantee of seeing something awesome-sorry ladies, had to tell em. I buy Men's active clothing for a popular retail chain and it helps to know who scored that last TD. Also, I'm really funny. Like, super funny. So if you're also funny, and you laugh at what I say too, then you should probably get at me.

By Ted Sares, Photos by Tom Casino/SHOWTIME - In a battle of Detroit vs. Philadelphia (but fought in Miami, Oklahoma), undefeated Blue Horizon favorite Harry Joe Yorgey (22-0-10) finally caught up with unbeaten Ronald The Chosen One Hearns (21-0 coming in). The end came at the 2.59 mark of the ninth round as Yorgey finished matters with a strong right hand that sent Hearns to the canvas in a dangerous way as his head bounced off the canvas in a whip saw manner.
In the fourth stanza, both fighters hit the deck, but Hearns cage was rattled more than Yorgeys. Then in the fifth, Harry Joe, not known as a heavy puncher, landed a big right that sent Hearns to the canvas face first. However, showing lots of heart, he managed to get up and finish the round--but barely. However, it was clear Yorgey was the hungrier fighter with more at stake. At 31 years of age and four kids, it was do or die and he was determined to do..
After three fairly close rounds, Yorgey iced The Chosen One at the very end of the ninth. Perhaps the fact he had gone more rounds than Hearns may have been a factor, as Ronald had never gone beyond eight rounds before. Yorgey, however, had gone 12 in his last tiff and 30 in his last three.
The extremely well-trained and focused Yorgey defeated beaten previously unbeaten Jason The Hammer LeHoullier in his last outing to capture both the vacant IBF International light middleweight title and vacant IBF North American Light Middleweight Title. This bout was for the vacant International Boxing Association Intercontinental light middleweight title. In 2006, he suffered three knock downs and a broken nose in a bloody closet classic extraordinaire against Jeremy Yelton which Yorgey won by a UD. All one needs to do to learn about Yorgey is research this incredible fight that somehow flew under the radar.
This win propels Yorgey, who thus far has never left the ring as a loser,
into the mix as a contender for a world title. As for Ronald Hearns, the son of boxing legend Tommy Hearns, this was a crushing defeat. He now must go back to the drawing board and assess his options which, of course, have now narrowed.
Postscript: Harry Joe dedicated this fight to a young lady who has been diagnosed with this deadly disease. In January of 2008, at the age of 22, Shannon Yoder was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor.

It's impossible to make it big as a Insurance Sales Agents in the United States; the average employee scrapes together only around $35K annually. Cash earnings of Insurance Sales Agents — including $10K in bonuses, $15K in profit sharing proceeds, and $41K in commissions near the top of the pay scale — stretch from approximately $22K to approximately $64K depending on individual performance.

An insurance sales agent is a person who helps individuals choose a policy that most closely fits their needs. The sales agent will typically represent and work for an individual company, but independent agents who represent many smaller insurance entities exist as well. In any event, these sales-oriented employees help to match up individuals with home, car, and life insurance policies that offer acceptable coverage to the consumer and provide a profit to the company. In some cases, the sales agent may also be the first contact when an insured person needs to file a claim.Read More...
Employees in insurance sales are expected to generate new business, as well as retain existing business. This can involve cold-calling, sales seminars, and other creative ways to generate new leads. Sales agents will also look to add coverage options to existing accounts by offering bundling discounts for customers willing to have multiple policy options from the same provider. Some state and local laws may also assist the sales agent, in places where certain coverages are mandated. Such laws help provide a constant infusion of new consumers into the marketplace.
Insurance sales agents must be excellent verbal and written communicators and have an aptitude and facility for salesmanship. While post-secondary education isn't a strict requirement for this job, many insurance companies will either put candidates through their own training programs or seek out applicants with prior insurance sales experience. Most insurance sales agents work business hours during the week in an office environment, but field work involving visiting potential clients or working in advisement seminars is also typical. In some jurisdictions agents must pass certification testing to ensure full understanding of the industry and its obligations to consumers.
