With more than 225,000 copies sold, "When Helping Hurts" is a paradigm-forming contemporary classic on the subject of poverty alleviation and ministry to those in need. Emphasizing the poverty of both heart and society, this book exposes the need that every person has and how it can be filled. The reader is brought to understand that poverty is much more than simply a lack of financial or material resources and that it takes much more than donations and handouts to solve the problem of poverty.
While this book exposes past and current development efforts that churches have engaged in which unintentionally undermine the people they're trying to help, its central point is to provide proven strategies that challenge Christians to help the poor empower themselves. Focusing on both North American and Majority World contexts, "When Helping Hurts" catalyzes the idea that sustainable change for people living in poverty comes not from the outside-in, but from the inside-out.

In a daring daylight heist, four unidentified men in their 20s robbed a jeweller after threatening him with a firearm in Kurla on Sunday morning. The accused fled away with valuables worth Rs4.66 lakh.
The incident occurred at 10.30am, when Tarachand Jain, 42, owner of Lakshmi Jewellers on SG Barve Road, was in the shop along with his employee Narayansingh Rajput.
The police said the men entered the shop posing as customers. One of them told Jain they want to buy a ring and would like to have a look at various designs. As soon as Rajput brought the rings out, three of them pulled out a firearm, which, according to Jain, looked like country-made revolver. Within 10 minutes, the accused decamped with gold ornaments worth Rs4.5 lakh, imitation jewellery worth Rs15,000 and a set-top box worth Rs1,500.
An officer attached with the Nehru Nagar police station said "Luckily, there was a CCTV camera in the shop and the entire robbery has been captured on it. It will help us in the investigation."

Over 90,000 children immunised in Union Territory
Despite health inspectors' threat to boycott the second round of polio immunisation here on Sunday, the drive went off without any hitch.
A total of 90,437 children below the age of 5 were immunised in Puducherry, Karaikal, Yanam and Mahe.
According to Health and Family Welfare statistics, coverage this time was 91.33 per cent against 90.38 per cent in January. Of 99,020 children in the Union Territory, 90,437 were immunised on Sunday.
In Puducherry alone, 69,971 out of 77,246 children were immunised. In Karaikal, 14,770 out of 15,024 children received the vaccine. In Yanam, as many as 3,975 of 4,330 were immunised. In Mahe, a total of 1,721 out of 2,420 children received drops.
A total of 822 teams were employed for the immunisation exercise, with 411 booths and seven transit booths. Puducherry had 314 booths, Karaikal 70, Mahe 16 and Yanam 18.
Children who are left out in the drive on Sunday would be covered by health workers going on a door-to-door campaign. The last case of polio in the Union Territory was recorded in 1998, Director of Health and Family Welfare, K.V. Raman told The Hindu.
"As soon as we heard about the proposed boycott, a notice was sent to the Association. We have also conducted one round of talks with the health inspectors and they agreed to take part in the programme," he said.
In January, the Health Inspector Association had decided to boycott the programme when they were not represented in the felicitation programme for the best polio workers from different States held in Delhi.

City government
- See also: Mayor-council government
The city of Honolulu utilizes a "strong mayor" and city council system. In this form of municipal government, the city council serves as the city's primary legislative body while the mayor serves as the city's chief executive.[1]
The mayor serves as the city's chief executive and is responsible for proposing a budget, signing legislation into law, appointing departmental directors and overseeing the city's day-to-day operations. The mayor also represents the city on the state, national and international levels. Kirk Caldwell is the current Mayor of Honolulu.[2]
City council
The Honolulu City Council is the city's primary legislative body. It is responsible for adopting the city budget, approving mayoral appointees, levying taxes and making or amending city laws, policies and ordinances.[3]
The Honolulu City Council is made up of nine members, each of whom is elected by the city's nine districts.[4]
A current list of council members can be found here.
Boards and commissions
A series of advisory boards and commissions that are made up of non-elected citizens, whom city council members have appointed and approved, advises the Honolulu City Council. The roles of these boards and commissions are to review, debate and comment upon city policies and legislation and to make recommendations to the city council.
For a full list of past and current Honolulu city boards and commissions, see here.
The city of Honolulu, Hawaii held nonpartisan elections for city council on November 4, 2014. The filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was June 3, 2014.[5]
Four of the city's nine council seats were up for election. In Districts 2 and 6, incumbents ran for re-election. These were Ernie Martin and Carol Fukunaga, respectively. Districts 4 and 8, on the other hand, were open seats.
A primary election took place on August 9, 2014. In races where one candidate received more than 50% of the total votes cast, they won outright. In races where no candidate received more than 50% of the total vote, the top two vote-getters advanced to the general election on November 4, 2014. In the District 2 primary, incumbent Ernie Martin defeated Dave Burlew and Dan Hara. In the District 8 primary, which was an open seat, Brandon Elefante defeated Russ Grunch, Baybee Hufana-Ablan and Brysen Poulton. These races did not advance to the general election. In Districts 4 and 6, however, no candidate received a majority. The winners of these seats were determined in November.[6]
Honolulu's adopted operating budget for fiscal year 2014 was $2.1 billion.[7]

Ballot measures
- See also: Honolulu County, Hawaii ballot measures
The city of Honolulu is in Honolulu County. A list of ballot measures in Honolulu County is available here.
Initiative process
Ordinances: The signature requirement is 10% of the total voters registered in the last regular mayoral election. Each voter signing such petition shall add to the signature, the voter's printed name, residence, social security number and the date of signing. Petitions shall set forth the proposed ordinance, a circulator affidavit must be attached, and 3-5 persons must be designated to approve any alterations to the text. After signature certification, the council may adopt the proposed ordinance or submit it at a scheduled general or special election. Petitions should be filed at least 90 days before a scheduled election to appear on that ballot. An additional provision provides that if the petition is signed by at least 15% of the votes cast for mayor in the last regular mayoral election (with a request for a special election), a special election shall be called if there is no scheduled election within 180 days. Ordinances adopted by initiative are not subject to a mayoral veto, and shall not be amended or repealed by the council within two years after adoption, except as a result of subsequent initiative or by an ordinance adopted by the affirmative vote of at least three quarters of the entire council after a public hearing. (Honolulu Charter, Art. III, Chap 4)
Restrictions: The initiative power shall not extend to any ordinance authorizing or repealing the levy of taxes, the appropriation of money, the issuance of bonds, the salaries of county employees or officers, or any matter governed by collective bargaining contracts. (Honolulu Charter, Sec. 3-401)
Charter amendments: The initiative process for charter amendment largely follows the same requirements for ordinances. The signature requirement is 10% of the total voters registered in the last regular mayoral election. Each voter signing such petition shall add to the signature, the voter's printed name, residence, social security number and the date of signing. Petitions shall set forth the proposed amendment, a cirulator affidavit must be attached, and 3-5 persons must be designated to approve any alterations to the text. The difference is that after certification, the proposed amendment must be submitted at the next general election. (Honolulu Charter, Art. XV)
Honolulu Charter, Art. III, Chap.4 and Art. XV

Robert Daley, father of British diving champion Tom Daley, has died of brain cancer at age 40.
Robert Daley, who became a familiar figure poolside supporting his son, died "peacefully" late Friday night with Tom by his side, a statement from British Swimming says.
Tom, who became the youngest diver at age 15 to win a world title in men's platform in 2010, tweeted on Saturday- "If I could be half the dad that my dad was to me then that would be my best achievement! I love you! Xx".
His father was first diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2006.

Investors eyeing a purchase of Swift Energy Company (SFY) stock, but cautious about paying the going market price of $11.93/share, might benefit from considering selling puts among the alternative strategies at their disposal. One interesting put contract in particular, is the November put at the $10 strike, which has a bid at the time of this writing of 70 cents. Collecting that bid as the premium represents a 7% return against the $10 commitment, or a 17.3% annualized rate of return (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost).
Top YieldBoost Puts of the S&P 500 »
Selling a put does not give an investor access to SFY's upside potential the way owning shares would, because the put seller only ends up owning shares in the scenario where the contract is exercised. And the person on the other side of the contract would only benefit from exercising at the $10 strike if doing so produced a better outcome than selling at the going market price. ( Do options carry counterparty risk? This and six other common options myths debunked). So unless Swift Energy Company sees its shares decline 16.4% and the contract is exercised (resulting in a cost basis of $9.30 per share before broker commissions, subtracting the 70 cents from $10), the only upside to the put seller is from collecting that premium for the 17.3% annualized rate of return.
Below is a chart showing the trailing twelve month trading history for Swift Energy Company, and highlighting in green where the $10 strike is located relative to that history:

CLAYTON — City council authorized at its August 7 meeting assessments on properties for delinquent payments owed to the city for various services.
Council authorized sending assessments against the North Clayton Community Authority to the county auditor for placement on the property tax bill.
"We are charged with billing for these assessments the homeowners have," said Finance Director Kevin Schweitzer. "Currently we have $10,221 worth of assessments to put on tax accounts. Seventy percent of these are from the one developer that owns the majority of the land out there. They have not paid their assessments for the last couple of years."
Council authorized charges to be sent to the county auditor for unpaid weed cutting for collection with property owners' real estate taxes.
These assessments are for cutting the lots of homes where properties are not being maintained in accordance with city regulations, according to Schweitzer.
"We charge them a higher rate to try and remind them that it is not our business to cut their grass," Schweitzer said. "This year's assessment totals $22,020, which is down from last year when we had $36,500 so some people are getting the message."
Vice Mayor Tim Gorman asked how many times property owners are billed before the assessments are put on their real estate taxes. Schweitzer said property owners are billed one time and are given several months to pay before it is placed on their real estate taxes. The city charges $320 to cut one acre or less and an additional $320 for the second one acre or less.
A third ordinance was also adopted to assess property owners for failure to pay trash collection bills.
"This is probably the biggest amount of money that we have to deal with that is delinquent, and its trash collection," Schweitzer noted. "We will put anyone that is 90 days past due with a balance of $100 on this assessment list. The majority of our residents are paying $36 to $43 per quarter for trash collection, so for them to get on this list they have to be three to four quarters behind in paying. The total amount for this list is $48,775 worth of assessments, which is lower than last year when we had $64,676. But of the accounts that are past due 90 days and less than $100 we have $104,033 that is currently delinquent, so we still have a big problem with people paying their quarterly trash bill."
The trash hauler has been paid for collecting the trash, now the city must try to collect from delinquent property owners to recoup funds paid to the trash hauler.
If residents pay their property tax bill next year the city must wait a year to receive those funds. Schweitzer said many of the property owners that are not paying for their trash collection have not paid in years and when contacted about being delinquent, most do not respond.
Council also approved street light assessments for the coming year for those areas of the city that are equipped with street lights. Each district is different and property owners are charged for the type of light used in that area. Fees range from $29 per year, per property or higher depending on whether or not an area is equipped with more expensive decorative lighting.

Publishers WeeklyDr. Melillo, a self-described "chiropractic neurologist", is the founder of a national chain of franchised Brain Balance Centers that train people to treat autistic children. Here, he proposes that environment and genetics come together in specific ways to produce symptoms of autism in children, and suggests that the disorder called autism can be minimized by getting the two hemispheres of the brain communicating. He includes diagnostic tools of his own design and suggests medical evaluations to help parents understand their own predilections and tests anyone can do for babies too young to get a diagnosis of autism. Melillo's style of writing is clear and concise, albeit overly confident and authoritative when it comes to making statements concerning a disorder about which much remains unknown. Moreover, though he makes reference to some autism studies, he doesn't cite any of them in sufficient detail for the work to be considered, as the title implies, scientific truth. While Melillo's ideas are thought-provoking, the science to back up his approach is still lacking and the book feels too much like an ad for his brain balance centers.

Cesc Fabregas
Nadal is not one dimesional, he uses lots of variety, sure he uses alot of topspin but he unloads on a flat backhand every now and then, he uses the slice backhand more these day. He now attacks the short ball and comes to net and uses different types of volleys drop volleys, short angle volleys, punch vollets and half volleys. He mixes his serve up well, with body serves on big points and uses the drop very well and doesn't overplay that tactic. The guy has many dimesions to his game.

Most great teams are marked by a great flyhalf. A truly great Springbok team will be marked by Fourie du Preez.
The Bok scrumhalf produced another match-winning performance in Saturday's 32-25 victory over the Wallabies. Sharp decision making, accurate kicking and that beautiful pass were all on show.
Over a 50-Test period, Du Preez has proved himself to be a rare blend of natural talent and unnatural application.
Eddie Jones told keo.co.za earlier in the week that Australia and New Zealand would employ the same strategy if they had the players. Everybody thought he referred exclusively to the behemoths masquerading as South African forwards, not the diminutive and unassuming figure wearing No 9. Would Graham Henry or Robbie Deans alter their thinking if they had Du Preez at their disposal?
He's won every medal possible with the Bulls and Boks, and you get the feeling that if Du Preez stays fit up until and including the 2011 World Cup, South Africa could set another precedent in defending their world title.
The kick-chase strategy wouldn't boast its recent success had one of Du Preez's understudies been directing proceedings. As seen for the Stormers, Ricky Januarie is not nearly accurate enough as a kicking scrumhalf. Ruan Pienaar would be an option, but where he falls short is his inability to control proceedings like the Bok incumbent.
While they have him, the Boks should cherish him. He's been the key man in this year's Tri-Nations campaign just as he was one of the most influential figures at the 2007 World Cup. When the Boks officially capture the Tri-Nations crown, he should be the first to take a bow.
Lachie Turner will be having nightmares after Saturday's game. So too Richard Brown. The former was exposed when Du Preez's high-hanging was knocked on, and Bryan Habana scored from that bumble. The latter made several errors from Du Preez kicks, and South Africa earned some great field position as a result.
The Boks' first two tries should never have come as a surprise, although some sectors have described their efforts in Perth as more expansively-inclined. They got themselves into position, and when the hosts' impeded, Du Preez merely took his opportunity. They found themselves in a favourable position again, and from a strong scrum, Jaque Fourie sliced through a porous Aussie defensive line to score under the posts.
It's hardly expansive rugby when you kick from your own half to win field position and then attack from within opposition territory. Coaches and players who have a handle on the new laws have preached this from the get-go. Running rugby is not dead, it just needs to be played in opposition territory.
As mentioned, the Boks' third try was a product of Du Preez's accurate garryowen. Kicked from within the Boks' half, this up-and-under was successfully chased by Jean de Villiers who forced Hynes into error. Habana arrived at the right place at the right time.
Du Preez was involved in the fourth try when he wrapped around the Bok attack to put Habana through for his second. It shouldn't surprise this was scored from deep within Aussie territory.
Where some reports have been right is that the Boks looked to play more expansively. They took more unnecessary risks, and against a better team, they would have been punished.
After moving to a 12-0 lead, they tried to run it from their own 22. The result? A 50-50 offload to Heinrich Brussow was spilled forward, and what should have been a routine catch and clearance from the lineout was turned into a prime attacking opportunity for the Wallabies.
It's not the first time the Boks have made the mistake of shifting mindset. The game at Newlands saw South Africa replicating the haphazard brand of 2008 while the Wallabies had 13 men on the field. They had an opportunity to rack up 50 points but a lack of structure proved their undoing.
Hopefully the Boks will have learned their lesson from these lapses. When they play to their strengths, they prosper. In other words, if they focus on pummeling the opposition forwards into submission and then asking Du Preez to boot upfield, they'll always benefit. When they attack from within opposition territory, they have the potential to score some beautiful tries.
The Tri-Nations is all but in the bag, but the Boks can be better. They should take this as a massive compliment.

The votes are in, you want to dish about Top Design after the show, so look for a weekly post here on decor8 starting tonight where you can rant and rave, praise and protect, and have some fun mingling with others to talk about each episode. Tonight is the much anticipated premiere! Yeah! Here's a sneak peek of episode 1.
I'll post "Dishing Top Design" after the show each week. The post will only contain a line or two of text and a Top Design image. I promise not to give anything away in the actual post, just in case some of you are planning to Tivo it. The details will be in the comments section – so if you don't want to know what happened, don't read the comments. We don't want to spoil it for anyone.
Psst: Tim Gunn is part of the mix, at least for tonight. I know, I know… How amazing is that? You have to click on over to the Bravo website and watch Tim chatting it up with Jonathan Adler, you'll love it! I was so excited to see Tim surface again, I couldn't wait until the next Project Runway to hear his voice, love that guy!

I was thrilled when Caressa Allen, designer and owner of Luxury Lab in California, wrote in about her new line of bedding. She describes her linens as "clothing for your home" and "art for your bed". I'd describe this bedding as one part sugar, one part spice.
With bold rocker style graphics, this bedding screams California cool – I imagine Luxury Labs being a huge hit with celebs and hip urban dwellers that are done with sweet bird and branch motifs and want to strike a more femme fatale chord.
I love this somewhat seductive bad girl/boy bedding for many reasons, but one that stands out is that most of these patterns would appeal to men, so if you're a couple, you won't strip your other half of his manhood with another sweet floral pattern. Duvet sets (complete with two shams) run at around $285.- complete.
Luxury Lab is fun, flirty, sexy (but subtle), and much thought was put into the design process, materials, and staying as environmentally friendly as possible. I mean, even a girl with crossbones on her shams has a conscience.
Thanks Caressa for introducing us to your rockin' line!
Psst: I did my homework and discovered that Ana of OhMyGooshness recently interviewed Caressa. Get the full scoop here. Great job, Ana!

Here's a quick review of a great sofa I spotted at West Elm over the weekend. It's called the Heyward and I'm keen on the textured tweed oatmeal ($799.-), back cushions, and the clean lines — what a great piece. It's not only extremely comfortable, but gorgeous and very sturdy to boot.
It's also available in leather ($999.-), which was beautiful in person, but I'm not a leather sofa person so I don't have an opinion either way about it. I want to order the oatmeal Heyward for my office/guest room because it would be great for my pals who crash here. Since most of them are single (and the ones that are married usually don't sleep over), this would be great because the size of the Heyward would accomodate one person. It doesn't flip out into a bed, but honestly, I don't care because I seldom have two people sleeping over at once. So, if you're considering the Heyward sofa, then you have my 4 star vote because I think it's sweet. :)

Have you visited the Domino galleries lately? Be sure to catch their latest guide to chests of drawers. I just love the image below, seeing a dresser in an entryway, decked out in a pretty color (like teal), adorned with beautiful things… Well it sort of makes me weak. Having all of those deep drawers is also very handy for storage. You can neatly tuck away slippers, mittens, and outdoor gear, to office supplies, tools, wrapping paper, and sheets of tissue paper.
You see, I've always wanted to have an entryway since becoming a bonafide adult, an entry like the ones in my family home as a child. Ever since abandoning the nest at 19, I've had either long narrow hallways to welcome me, or doors that opened directly into the living space. Never a halfway point between the outside world and the living space – never a neat little entryway to call my own. That welcoming space (only complete with fresh cut flowers, a little chair, and a dresser) is where greetings are exchanged and kisses on the cheeks are given to welcome or bid adieu. It's the one space that I miss, and desire, the most.
After examining their chest of drawers gallery (and feeling the pang of nostalgia), I hopped on on over to the Dining Tables and Chairs gallery, another worthy feature to visit. I'm so pleased to see the mix up in chairs and tables becoming more mainstream, no longer do we need conform to 'matchy matchy' sets that are too imposing for a modern, relaxed lifestyle. We can mix wood tables with acrylic chairs, not because we cannot afford a matching set, but because we prefer the casual look. Isn't it exciting to see decor taking a turn from the overly done to a bit haphazard?

The Higgins Helitours Heliport is a landing platform located in Castle Gardens, Algonquin and is home to the Higgins Helitours sightseeing company in Grand Theft Auto IV.
The heliport, located on Bus Lane, just off Union Drive East in Castle Gardens, is an "L" shaped landing platform protruding out into the Humboldt River from the south-eastern Algonquin coast. The company, Higgins Helitours, operates several different sightseeing tours of Liberty City, each costing $150.
- The shape of the landing platform resembles that of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport in New York City.
- On the platform there are five landing zones marked "H". It is very rare to see helicopters spawned in all five spaces at once.

Most people may associate a mosque or madrassa with just Koranic teachings, but Makka Masjid on the arterial Anna Salai is aiming to dispel that notion.
Azhagiya Kadan IAS Academy, functioning from the mosque complex for over a year, wants to reiterate the message that securing adequate space in the administrative structure alone can bring in desirable change in the socio-economic conditions of Muslims.
"The door for political empowerment is closed and we are victims of tokenism in politics. So I have decided to open the other door," said Moulana S. Shamsudeen Qasinin, Chief Imam of the Masjid and the founder of the Academy. In 2012, the academy trained 30 aspirants and this year 40 students are taking lessons. Ninety per cent of them are engineering graduates. The students get free food, accommodation and coaching. The patrons spend close to Rs 2.5 lakh every month to run the academy.
"We organise motivation camps in all districts. The aspirants should clear an entrance examination. Candidates securing more than 40 per cent marks are shortlisted and final selection is done through interview," said A. Arif, the academy's administrative officer.
The academy sources teachers from Shankar IAS Academy, a reputed institution. "I decided not to take up job offers from Cognizant and Infosys after realising the futility of engineering education," said J. Mohamed Meerasahib, who has completed preliminaries of UPSC and TNPSC Group 1. H. Akbar Ali, who also cleared the UPSC preliminary and N. Jasim, now preparing for the main examination of the TNPSC Group 1, also agreed that engineering education never gave them a sense of fulfilment.
Mr. Qasinin said he was also planning to start separate classes for Muslim girls.

Recipe by Stef
"An easy roast beef sandwich with local origins in Buffalo, New York. Kimmelweck rolls are hard kaiser-type rolls covered in coarse ground salt and caraway seeds. This recipe transforms regular rolls into the traditional weck rolls."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

3 cups
prepared au jus sauce
2 pounds
thinly sliced roast beef
Kaiser rolls, split
2 teaspoons
kosher salt
2 teaspoons
caraway seeds
1/4 cup
prepared horseradish
Almost perfect! I worked in a restaurant known for their beef on weck and the trick is to dip the cut rolls in the au jus just a bit before serving so its not so messy.
Between the salt in the au jus and the bun, it was just too salty. I'm sticking with Italian beefs.

Great recipe, and a great way to make kimmelweck rolls for people who may not be able to find them where they live!
Absolutely what i've been looking for. I grew up in Buffalo, this being one of my FAVORITE sandwiches. I didn't realize it was only local until I moved to the west coast. Now I'm dating an Oregonian and he had never heard of beef on weck. Outrageous! So, since there are no Kimmelweck rolls to be found out here, this recipe was perfect. Thank you!
This takes a French Dip to an entirely new level. I love caraway seeds, so this just hit the spot. The coarse salt adds a texture reminiscent of a giant soft pretzel, although I must admit it was too salty for me using the recommended ratio. The caraway seeds and salt will stick to the bun using plain water, but I found that you get a crustier top if you brush the buns with an egg wash consisting of egg whites and water.
Closest thing to Kimmelweck rolls without going through the hassle of making them yourself. Try brushing the rolls with melted butter instead of water (I also leave off the caraway seeds). The "Easy Slow Cooker French Dip" recipe is delicious for cooking your meat and au jus sauce. These two recipes make for a mouth watering sandwich!
this is a really good, quick convenience recipe!!! I esp. like the part about making the plain kaiser rolls into kimmelweck rolls. My husband and kids enjoyed them. Thanks!
We dip the bottom side of the top roll in au jus and just serve with horseradish. This recipe was just what I needed. My Buffalonian boyfriend was overjoyed :) Thank you.

The Kerala State Housing Board (KSHB) is clearing its financial liabilities and gearing up to form a corpus of Rs.50 crore to independently take up new projects within the next two years, Chairman Arakkal Balakrishna Pillai has said.
Mr.Pillai told reporters here on Wednesday that the board would clear a Hudco loan of Rs.730.67 crore by April with the budgetary support of the government and take up 60 projects worth Rs.900 crore.
As many as 20 consultancy works worth Rs.350 crore were being executed at present. In addition to the budgetary support provided earlier, the government had granted Rs.245.56 crore to clear the Hudco loan arrears. On repaying the Rs.2 crore due to Federal Bank soon, the board would clear all liabilities and take up new projects.
A slew of schemes had been drawn up for the marginalised sections. A sum of Rs.5 crore had been earmarked for constructing night shelters for migrant domestic labour and Rs.3 crore for the Athani housing scheme for the BPL labourers who migrate to the urban centres from remote rural areas .
A project for constructing working women's hostels for Rs.4 crore and Rs.6 crore for the rental housing scheme to construct quarters for government employees are some of the major projects.
An allocation of Rs.90 crore for Grihasree, to construct houses for the economically weaker sections, is also a noteworthy support of the government.

Isabel is from Spain and we met while I lived and worked there for ten years. During our years there we enjoyed traveling throughout Europe and especially staying in the quaint Bed and Breakfasts that are so typical there. We made notes of all of the things we liked and disliked about everywhere we stayed and planned to one day have somewhere unique and cozy of our own to offer to vacationers.
In 2000 work brought us to St. Petersburg, Florida. In 2004 we purchased a condo in Indian Shores, just a few miles from our home. We decorated it with nothing but the best (Isabel is an Interior Decorator and has her own business). As guests began to know us and word began to get around we soon had a steady flow of visitors and a full calendar. Just repeat visitors were nearly keeping the unit booked. In 2008 we decided to buy a second unit, with the exact same floor plan and the same extraordinary views, just a few steps away. We call them our Gulf Retreat 1 and Gulf Retreat 2.
Darryl Glenn purchased this condo in 2008
We love Indian Shores because it is the quietest, most relaxed part of Sand Key, the barrier island that runs along the Gulf shore from St. Pete Beach to Clearwater. It is the narrowest part of the Sand Key, only 150-200 yards across where we are located. That means you can enjoy both the Intracoastal Waterway and the Gulf of Mexico only a few steps apart.
Indian Shores is the last part of the coastline in Pinellas County that preserves a small-town feel. Gulf Blvd. is still just a two-lane road and the speed limit is 35 m.p.h. There's is only one traffic light in Indian Shores. There isn't as much asphalt as you see to the south or north of us, a lot fewer high-rise buildings and none of the tourist traps. While you will find all the restaurants and conveniences you need near-by Indian Shores is still primarily a residential, family-oriented community.
Our view is of the Intracoastal Waterway, the body of water that separates Sand Key from the mainland. We love it because of all the boat traffic - it's fun to watch. The dolphins are always a joy to see, too. They are most active early in the morning or at sunset. Manatee are a little harder to spot, but are always around, too.
When the tide is low there is a sandbar that emerges from the water just off our balcony. The seabirds all come to feed there and it's wonderful entertainment.
And the Intracoastal Waterway is beautiful to behold at night, when the lights from the boats and other properties reflect off the surface. You must see it to appreciate it!
And of course the beach is just across the street. It takes just a couple of minutes to get there walking. It's never crowded and always relaxing. We have beach toys, inflatables, beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler... everything you need except a good book and suntan lotion! And we even have a handy cart to put everything in and wheel it across the street!
Dear Darryl and Isabel:
Thanks for laying on the record-breaking temperatures (!), 93° - 99°, as well as a surperb condo. Stepping in a looking through the wide windows was like watching a wide-screen movie... 24 hours a day.
What a view - and what activity in the inland waterway. We were amazed at the diversity of birds large and small, their hunting differences for the fish - and the constantly jumping fish themselves. And, of course, the magic of dolphin, many and in groups of up to 4. Better than a nature park and all in comfort and shade on the balcony.
Similarly inside (just who else can watch all this activity from their bed?!). All so spacious and comfortable and so well equipped. Liked the garage "car cooler" spot, with the door opener (not all rentals provide this).
Beach just yards away was great, but much better to stay on the inland side. All in the whole family were impressed and delighted by it all. Pity it was not endless!
This is was our first year at Gulf Retreat II but not our last...coming back next year. Everything is just as described on the website. Excellent views of the Intercoastal and all you need to bring is your suitcase! Cross the street and the Gulf is there to enjoy. Darryl is available for any questions or needs...we had a surprise visit from our daughter and grandson and Darryl brought us a port-a-crib. Condo is clean and stocked with anything you might need including a beach wagon, umbrella & beach chairs. Just loved sitting on the balcony and enjoying the dolphin, jumping fish, boats and beautiful nature on the Intercoastal. Fishing from the pier was a plus too! Location is excellent with lots of restaurants and things to do close by. There are no negatives for this beautiful retreat!
As residents of Indiana and its cold winter weather, we were dreaming about our vacation to FL last summer, then remembered we never wrote a review of this amazing condo. First of all, the owners are amazing to work with. They are prompt at responding to any and all questions about the condo and the area. They go over and above any owner we've ever dealt with. For starters, they knew we were bringing our 2 year old with us, and had a pack-&-play set up, complete with linens, and a highchair all ready for us. The condo was plenty spacious for the 4 adults and one little one we were traveling with. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. There was a wagon to carry things back and forth to and from the beach, with lots of beach toys and chairs. The condo is also decorated so nicely- Very comfortable and beautiful! One of our favorite things was the balcony out back. We spent morning, afternoons, and evenings out there. We loved watching the fish, dolphins, manatee, and boats. Even the little one spent lots of time out there watching all of the action. When we travel back to this area, we will definitely be looking to come back!!
This condo has every amenity for a great vacation. An open floor plan with a large great room. Comfortable beds, beautiful furniture in great shape. The kitchen had every appliance, gadget and dish type that we could have asked for. The view is perfect, large view of the intracoastal waterway, we even saw fireworks from the balcony. The owners were great to work with. We highly recommend staying here. We will come back for another visit too!
Our first stay in 2013 was awesome! So, of course we had to come again, and we were not disappointed. It even got better with several dolphin spotting's off the pier and sting ray's too, the kids were delighted! We will be going back! As I have said before this condo is everything it says in the add and so much more!!!! Trust me you will not be disappointed if you stay here!
If you want a great location, fabulous views, quiet beaches, and love to view the local wildlife right from your private balcony STOP, this is the place for you! Daryl and Isabel are awesome and provide you with everything you will need except you clothes, and I mean everything from, toys and movies for the kids, everything you could possibly need to have a fantastic day at the beach including, beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels and an awesome wagon to take it all there in! You will not be disappointed if you stay here!
LOVED IT... Do I need to say more! (See my other review from our first stay here in 2013 below for more details!)
I read a lot of great reviews about the properties, but it was still out of our expectation. The view was amazing, the condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. We were even greeted with a welcoming basket. We had such a great time there. I'd highly recommend this one to anybody.
Is it for sale??? I would like to buy this one. I have draw the architecture plan as the concept is perfect. Very well located, very clean and very comfortable. Large rooms, large windows, nice Intracoastal view. Dolphins, birds and rabbit seen from the balcony. Convenience store next door, gulf beach access across the road, Coffee Shop 10 minutes walking. Soft water swimming pool very well maintained. Thanks for the welcome gift basket.
I have made over 2 weeks of research to find this place and I don't regret my selection....Who can regret this? Just read the other reviews and you'll see. We had more than expected.

The Lady Leopards soccer team hosted James Kenan on Wednesday night, but fell to the Tigers, 7-1.
With the temperature dropping, Lakewood let the game get away from them in the first half and couldn't get back in it, though their defense improved in the second half.
Jay Faircloth, Lakewood's head coach, said "We were basically like kindergartners playing a high school game. We just made too many mistakes. Our defense fell apart in the first half. We moved the ball well all night long, but honestly, we got beat by a better team tonight. If we had played the first half like we did the second half, it would have been a totally different outcome. I'm frustrated but at the same time I see us coming together. It's just taking us a bit longer than we want it to."
For the Leopards, Jessica Espinoza scored their only goal, with an assist from Marisol Aranda.
Lakewood travels to Neuse Charter today (Thursday). The Lady Leopards have yet to win a conference game this season and have a 0-3 record.

Chris Brown and Rihanna weren't the only couple whose courtside presence caused a stir Tuesday.
As speculation grows that they are headed for divorce, Bruce and Kris Jenner took in the Los Angeles Clippers game at Staples Center Tuesday night, and continued to send signals that a split might be in the making, and RadarOnline.com has the pics.
Anna Anka, wife of singer-composer Paul Anka, was arrested and booked for domestic battery.
ET says that the police report describes how Mrs. Anka threw a piece of ice at her husband. It hit him in the head, opening a gash that required two staples to close. When he came home from the hospital his wife was gone. Anka called the Ventura County Sheriff's Department and reported her missing; when she returned, they learned the rest of the story and arrested her.
The Ventura County District Attorney's office decided not to file charges.
The couple married this summer and have a child together.
In addition to writing the theme song for Johnny Carson's stint on The Tonight Show, Anka composed such hits as My Way and Put Your Head on My Shoulder.

The latest wrinkle in La Crosse's downtown parking situation could mean problems for people doing business at the La Crosse Center.
City Hall recently reduced some parking areas near the center from 12 hours to only two hours. Center manager Art Fahey says the drivers who bring in buses and semis for concerts and other events need to be able to park for hours at a time.
The civic center hosted the state counties' association meeting this week...bringing several hundred visitors downtown for a couple of days.
Medical Examiner Says Rodgers Was Strangled To Death
Strangling was the most likely cause of death for Kristen Rodgers of La Crosse...
The medical examiner who conducted the autopsy on Rodgers explains his findings at the murder trial of Isaiah Golatt. Dr. Vincent Tranchida of Dane County says severe neck damage is strong evidence of strangulation. Golatt is accused of killing Rodgers during a drug deal last March, and leaving her body in a lot. Tranchida says exposure to the cold had minimal effect on Rodgers, despite claims by Golatt's lawyers that hypothermia was a major cause of the woman's death.

You're a very talented man, Francois Sagat. (And I mean OTHER than your obvious talent for porn, which goes without saying.) You're a very artistic, creative man, and also, I recently read an interview you gave (I can't remember with whom) where you talked about how you were a very shy teenager. I won't pretend and say "Oh, I'm such a huge fan, I've seen all your movies, scenes, etc…." because even though I definitely love watching you "at work" so to speak 😉 I genuinely admire your remarkable creativity, your sense of artistry in your photography and fashion, and your sensitivity, matched only by your wit and your ballsy-ness. (pun both intended AND un-intended, haha) It may seem weird to say this, but I have to say that you definitely have made a difference in my life. Beyond the porn, of course, is what I meant. I see in you, the same painfully shy kid I was all throughout elementary, Junior High, and High school, and yet you are very confident in yourself and dedicated to the things you love to do. I take my hat off to you, good sir.
a fan who undoubtedly enjoys your porn, but enjoys even more the amazing quality of your character that you appear to have.
PS…oh, and you have one of the most FANTASTIC bodies I've ever seen on a man. lolReply

But truth be told, when I crunched the numbers, a farmers' market meal made of roasted local pasture-raised chicken, baked potatoes and steamed broccoli cost less than four meals at Burger King, even when two of the meals came off the kiddie menu. The Burger King meal had negligible nutritional value and was damaging to our health and planet. The farmers' market menu cost less, healed the earth, helped the local economy, was a source of bountiful nutrients for a family of four, and would leave ample leftovers for both a chicken salad and a rich chicken stock, which could then be the base for a wonderful soup. But when push came to shove, I knew that Burger King would win out. The reason? Many people don't even know how to roast a chicken, let alone make a chicken salad from the leftovers or use the carcass to make a stock. Mainstream Americans have lost the simple domestic skills that would enable them to live an ecologically sensible life with a modest or low income.
-- from "Radical Homemakers"
Home ownership, self-sufficiency, community, prosperity... many of America's oft-stated goals and ideals can sometimes work at cross purposes. Over and again in her book "Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity From a Consumer Culture", Shannon Hayes makes the point that the industrialized and urban society with its patterns of work and wage earning have sopped up our time and set us into a vicious cycle where we consume rather than create. Shannon details how the Industrial Revolution diminished the centrality of home as an economic unit and the work done by a family. She values a return to practices of an earlier time when people had to grow their own food, make their own clothing, pass life skills and amusements on to their children, and help each other. She recognizes that "most of us will always rely on the broader industrial system for something" but states that in nurturing basic skills "we discover ways to simplify our demands and rebuild our domestic culture."
Shannon Hayes certainly lives her beliefs. She and her husband Bob Hooper and two young home-schooled daughters live in Richmondville, NY and tend her family's Sap Bush Hollow Farm in Schoharie County. They are "grass farmers", raising and selling meat and poultry with guidance to its preparation in Shannon's earlier book, "The Farmer and the Grill". Much of that knowledge came from her experiences in Argentina. "Radical Homemakers" is a broader manifesto based on her own life and from nterviews with more than two dozen men and women now involved in subsistance farming or urban homesteading and who "have learned to live on less in order to take the time to nourish your family and the planet through home cooking, engaged citizenship, responsible consumption and creative living."
Dr. Shannon Hayes holds a B.A. in creative writing from Binghamton University and a Master's and Ph.D.in sustainable agriculture and community development from Cornell. Shannon and Bob join Bill Jaker on OFF THE PAGE to speak about reclaiming lost or novel domestic skills, the challenges of today's economic situation that may make change imperative and the little things that can make a big difference. You can still send comments and questions via e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com.

NHL rejects bid for Coyotes
Updated: May 14, 2013, 1:59 AM ETBy Scott Burnside | ESPN.com
California investment banker Darin Pastor has joined a long list of would-be Phoenix Coyotes suitors whose interest in owning the team could not translate to an actual money-on-the-table purchase.
NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told ESPN.com on Monday that Pastor's bid to buy the team was dismissed because it didn't meet the league's requirements.
"We have rejected the offer. It didn't include the elements we had previously discussed were necessary to warrant serious consideration," ...

Punam Yadav, who came close to giving up her sport as she was unable to take on the trials and tribulations that Indian sport heaps on its young hopefuls, will have her granduncle to thank for the bronze medal she earned in the 63kg weight category late on Sunday. The bronze medal was the seventh medal for the weightlifting contingent and the 20th medal overall for the Indian contingent.
Punam, who turned 19 earlier this month and graduated to the senior section only after that, finished third behind the Nigerian duo of Oluwatoyin Adesanmi and Oblome Okoli who were way ahead in terms of their efforts.
Adesanmi (92 + 115) and Okoli (90 + 117) were tied at 207 but the former won the gold on lighter bodyweight, while Punam lifted 88 in snatch and then managed 114 in clean and jerk for a total of 202, which was her personal best, better than the 201 she managed in Thailand while winning her first international medal at the Asian Junior championships earlier this year.
"This is my biggest medal and I am so happy with it that I can't express in words," said Punam.
Hailing from a very modest family, which found difficult to make two ends meet, Punam's medals in Thailand will help her find a job and ensure a better life for her family.
Trained by GP Sharma, Punam comes from village Chandmari, close to Varanasi. She came into the sport, courtesy her elder sister, Shashi Yadav. Her first training centre was the SAI Centre in Lucknow.
In 2013 she came close to giving up the sport when was not allowed to participate in the Junior Nationals in Guwahati, where she was asked to appear for a dope test. Yet, she was denied participation.
Her uncle encouraged her not to give up the sport and forced her to get back to it. The coaches saw the potential, which was fulfilled to some extent at the Asian Juniors and the bronze medal in Commonwealth Games should add lustre to her growing career.
India's seven medals from weightlifting are as follows:
Gold: Sanjita Khumukcham (women's 48kg) and Sukhin Dey (men's 56kg)
Silver: Mirabai Saikhom (women's 48kg)
Bronze: Ganesh Mali (men's 56kg); Omkar Otari (men's 69kg); Santoshi Matsa (women's 53kg) and Punam Yadav (women's 63kg)
