Making A Turn To Turbine
Piper's flagship, the Meridian, simplifies the turboprop transition
The brand-new Canadian-registered Meridian would be starting homeward the following day, but the owner had graciously allowed Piper to use it first to show off the current generation of Piper's flagship product, which includes a new interior soft-goods upgrade introduced a year ago. With its 260-knot top cruise speed and 30,000-foot ceiling, you need to climb up to altitude and go somewhere to get to know this airplane. Mindful that AMM was headed to Canada, far from its balmy birthplace, we decided to give it a proper tropical send off and filed direct for Key West, 200 nm south-southwest, at flight level 240.
Simple to operate or not, a turbine engine is a different animal than a piston, and even similarities to its M-Class siblings—Matrix, Malibu and Mirage—go only so far. "It's the same-size fuselage, it's the same wingspan, but it's really a very different airplane, structurally, from the piston airplanes," Jones said. "There's only about a 20% parts commonality." The Meridian's wing, for example, is substantially different than the piston PA-46's, primarily to accommodate its 170-gallon fuel capacity, 50 more than the PA-46 pistons can carry. And, its maximum ramp weight, at 5,134 pounds, is also some 700 pounds heavier. But, the Meridian's 850 shp Pratt & Whitney PT6A-42A, de-rated to 500 shp, more than makes up for the added weight. To provide enough rudder authority for the extra power, the Meridian's empennage is 37% larger than on piston PA 46s, and it employs an electrically operated rudder trim tab, rather than the pistons' bungee spring mechanism used for rudder trim.
The Meridian's big tail provides plenty of rudder authority in the landing configuration.
Before the soft-goods upgrade, all M-Class Pipers had the same interior packages and options, but now, Meridian interiors have higher-quality carpets, leathers and side panels, and buyers have access to more options than before. "We have lovely materials for the other [M-Class] aircraft, but not the high-end we now use on the Meridian," Carlon said. Additionally, the leather and Kydex used on the Meridian's side panels have been replaced by Izit, a luxurious synthetic leather that wears better than the real thing. Today's Meridian also has forward-folding pilot and copilot seats (both fully adjustable), making it easier for generously sized pilots to get in and out of the cockpit. The flight deck is dominated by the G1000's 15-inch center display screen flanked by PFDs in the pilot and copilot positions, with little else cluttering the panel.

Fantasy Changing Reality: The Progressive Legacy Of Korra's Legend
I don't really do escapism. It's not that the media I consume isn't described as such, nor even that I have something against the concept. I just rarely feel as though I….escape. I mean, I enjoy the books I read and the games I play. And I suppose they keep me from considering the quotidian details of my life as I engage with them. Like, no, in the most banal sense, I am not thinking about groceries as I play Portal. But there's a power people invest in the concept of escapism—whether they celebrate or deride it—and I just never seem to get it. It's not a big deal, really. It's never a metric by which I measure anything. I shrug and move on.
I escaped into The Legend of Korra.

Will Brad Womack Be 'The Bachelor' for a Third Time?
"No one ever thought Brad would be invited back for a second time after he rejected both women the first time he appeared," an insider tells me. "So it's not totally out of the question that Brad could return again if he and Emily stop trying to make this relationship work."
Fans were shocked last week to discover that the couple had already split since the show finished filming. Emily reportedly refuses to commit, and the pair canceled all their post-show interviews and continue to live a thousand miles apart, with Emily in Charlotte and Brad in Austin.
"If Brad hadn't found love the second time there is no way he would ever be invited back on the show," a show insider tells me. "But after America saw him try so hard to make his relationship work with Emily, they like him again. Everyone thinks Emily tricked him -- they feel sorry for him."
While Brad and Emily continue to decide if they are a couple or not, ABC can continue to reuse, renew and recycle, turning Ashley H., a former contestant, into the next 'Bachelorette' when the season premieres May 23.
Who knows -- the third time might be the charm for Brad!
Halle Berry called it quits with her boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry, ending their five-year relationship. The couple has a 2-year-old daughter, Nahla Ariel Aubry.

what happened to the psychologist who was helping Brad...Someone should have warn him with Emily's cautious insecurities.

I'm not sure I can watch him for 6 weeks, but a mini show, of what happened and that he visited one of the existing bachorlettes and they are a thing is great!

About 340 Chinese art treasures thoughtfully selected from the collections of the Min Chiu Society's members will be on show at "The Grandeur of Chinese Art Treasures: Min Chiu Society Golden Jubilee Exhibition" at the Hong Kong Museum of Art from tomorrow (September 25) until January 2, 2011.
Featuring a variety of artefacts and antiques ranging from calligraphy, paintings and ceramics to jade ware, bronze ware, gold and silver ware, lacquer ware, carvings in bamboo, wood and rhinoceros horn, glass ware, snuff bottles, as well as furniture and stationery items from the Chinese scholar's studio, covering the period from the Neolithic to the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), the exhibition will be a golden opportunity for visitors to appreciate the exquisiteness of Chinese art.
The exhibition was officially opened today (September 24) by Chief Secretary for Administration, Mr Henry Tang. Other officiating guests were the Chairman of the Min Chiu Society, Dr Leo K K Wong, the Director of Leisure and Cultural Services, Mrs Betty Fung, and the Chief Curator of the Museum of Art, Mr Tang Hoi-chiu.
Jointly presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and the Min Chiu Society and organised by the Hong Kong Museum of Art, the exhibition comprises prized collections mostly on loan from the members of the Min Chiu Society and partly from the Art Museum of The Chinese University of Hong Kong and The University Museum and Art Gallery of The University of Hong Kong.
The collection and preservation of and research into cultural treasures have a long history in China. As early as the Shang (c. 1600 BC – 1100 BC) and Zhou (c. 1100 BC – 256 BC) periods, the royalty and nobility regarded building a collection as of prime importance. The role of collectors has contributed tremendously to the preservation of cultural artefacts in China through the acts of acquisition, preservation, collection, appraisal and study. Their efforts have enabled people today to see ancient artefacts in their true form. In so doing, they are enlightened by each encounter, and gain a better understanding of their civilisation by travelling back a few hundred, or even a few thousand, years in time. It is this very knowledge of the past that enables people to shape the continuum of their legacy and heritage for generations to come.
In Hong Kong, such a vision brought together a group of like-minded collectors who formed the Min Chiu Society in 1960. For half a century, members of the Min Chiu Society have been consistent in their ardour and their goal. Regular meetings were held in which acquisitions were viewed and insights were shared. Academic exchanges such as visits and talks were organised. The members are meticulous about authenticity so as to build collections of the highest quality. Through their social commitments, they have had a tremendous influence on collecting and curatorial standards in China and other parts of the world.
The Min Chiu collections have won public recognition as well as international acclaim. Notable examples are the Yuan dynasty underglaze blue porcelains of the Tianminlou Collection, the ancient Chinese ceramics of the Jiurutang Collection, the monochrome ceramics of the Zhuyuetang Collection, the ancient jade ware of the Hei-Chi Collection, the Ming furniture of the Dr S Y Yip Collection, the glassware of Mr Andrew K F Lee, the snuff bottles of the Humphrey K F Hui Collection, the Chinese calligraphy and paintings as well as the Ming and Qing ceramics of the C P Lin Collection, the ancient calligraphy and paintings of Mr Harold C F Wong, the art of Zhu Qizhan in the Zhanyuantang Collection, and the gold ware, bamboo carvings and lacquer ware with mother-of-pearl inlay of the Muwen Tang Collection. While they are essentially based in Hong Kong, the holdings take pride of place in the international world of collecting.
The first joint exhibition between the Hong Kong Museum of Art and the Min Chiu was held in 1966, at the City Hall Museum and Art Gallery (the predecessor to the Hong Kong Museum of Art) which was located in Hong Kong City Hall in Central. It marked the beginning of a partnership in arts, culture and education that has lasted for more than four decades. Exhibitions under a variety of themes have been mounted, including "Paintings, Calligraphy and Porcelain of the Ming Period, Anthology of Chinese Ceramics", "An Anthology of Chinese Art: Min Chiu Society Silver Jubilee Exhibition", "The Splendour of the Qing Dynasty" and "Auspicious Emblems: Chinese Cultural Treasures – 45th Anniversary Exhibition of the Min Chiu Society". Ancillary activities, which included educational activities, guided tours, talks and workshops, were held during the exhibition periods to enhance the understanding and appreciation of Chinese art by the public at large, and the education of the student population in particular.
Members of the Min Chiu are also well known for their generosity and public spirit: Not only do they readily lend their prized collections for public viewing, but they also donate their collections in lots to museums around the world to promote research and to enhance the study of Chinese art and antiquities. The Hong Kong Museum of Art is also one of the beneficiaries. Among the list of benefactors from the Min Chiu Society, Dr Lo Kwee-seong and Dr Tsui Tsin-tong are two important names for the remarkable size and scope of their donations.
In celebration of the golden jubilee of the Min Chiu Society, the theme of the present exhibition is "The Grandeur of Chinese Art Treasures". On display are representative items in Chinese art and antiques. For calligraphy and painting works alone, the impressive selection spans the Tang (618 – 907), Yuan (1271 – 1368) and Ming (1368 – 1644) periods up to the present day. Famous artists include Ni Zan, Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming, Dong Qichang, Shitao, Luo Ping and Wu Changshuo of various eras in China, and modern masters such as Zhu Qizhan, Zhang Daqian, Lin Fengmian, Wu Guanzhong and Shi Lu. As for ceramics, the treasures also span different eras, from the pottery of the Neolithic period (c.7000 - c.2100 BC), sancai ware of the Tang, outstanding porcelain ware from the famous kilns of the Song dynasty (960-1279), underglaze blue porcelain of the Yuan period, to a wide range of ceramic and porcelain ware from the Ming and the Qing, including wares in monochrome glazes, wares with underglaze decoration, and wares with overglaze polychrome enamels.
To tie in with the exhibition, a series of lectures, video programmes and workshops will be organised during the exhibition period. Among them, two lectures entitled "Story of Chinese Fan" and "Classic Chinese Furniture" will be conducted on October 30 and November 27 respectively from 3pm to 5pm. The lectures, in Cantonese, are free and 150 seats are available on a first-come-first-served basis. In addition, a fully illustrated catalogue will be published and available at the Gift Shop of the Hong Kong Museum of Art.
The Hong Kong Museum of Art is located at 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. It opens from 10am to 6pm from Sunday to Wednesday and Fridays, and from 10am to 8pm on Saturdays. It is closed on Thursdays (except public holidays). Admission is $10 and a half-price concession is available to full-time students, senior citizens and people with disabilities. Admission is free on Wednesdays.

The jade "cong"-tube with figure and animal mask design in this picture is carved in the form of a four-sided column with a cylindrical hollow inside. The decoration of this "cong" is divided into two sections, upper and lower, with a deity face above, and animal face below. Jade objects like this, dating back to the Neolithic Age, were unearthed in large numbers in burial grounds in Jiangsu and in the archaeological sites of the Liangzhu Culture (c.3300-2200BC) of Zhejiang Province. This item is from the Hei-Chi Collection.
This large dish with banana tree, floral design and moulded fruit in underglaze blue was made in the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368). The flower decoration and the cavetto design make this dish a rare find. The Chinese seldom used dishes of such large size. It is believed that it was created for users from Central Asia, Western Asia and the Islamic regions, where people like to place their food in a big dish for sharing over a meal. This is from the Tianminlou Collection.
This jade figure of Yanzhi in deer skin carved in the round refers to a story from "The Twenty-four Filial Exemplars". This item formerly belonged to Prince Gong, the sixth son of Emperor Daoguang of the Qing, who lived in the 19th century. When the Qing government was overthrown in 1911, the Gong household went into decline and sold the valuable art collection in the family estate. This jade piece was one of the antiques sold, and now belongs to the Benjamin W Yim Collection..
Created by Luo Ping (1733-1799) on the eerie theme of ghosts, the eight ink paintings in this scroll "Ghost amusement" were conceived individually. Luo was a member of the artist group called the "Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou" in the Qing dynasty. In 1771, he carried this painting to the capital where he made a sensational debut. Both merchants and scholars were impressed by his originality, and Luo gained instant fame.

Things aren't looking so great for Lindsay Lohan (what's new). LA Superior Court judge Richard A Stone has ordered the actress to 'fess up to a whole lot of questions which will include inquiries of drug use. She'll be under oath, remember! Lohan's answers will be used in a civil lawsuit filed against her by Tracie Rice, who claims she suffered emotional after being a passenger in the car chased by Lohan in July 2007. She's suing Li.Lo for assault, negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Lohan has been ordered to sit for a two-hour deposition next month.
And she can't even relax with one of her favorite occupations until then. We mean tanning! Because spray tanning could trigger a positive alcohol reading on her SCRAM bracelet. Apparently, people have told Lindsay she can't get a spray tan while she's rocking the SCRAM, because a chemical in the tanning solution can create an alcohol reading. Lindsay's still getting a spray tan 1-2 times a week. She's pretty sick of the bracelet too claiming it's digging into her skin and irritating her. A source says, "She's made life hell for the people around her, since she is in pretty bad pain." No sympathy, sorry.

Need to know: CV cliches Why you can`t find a jobHF interviews
Australians can assume they are less likely to see a deal like China's Cnooc's US$15.1 billion bid for Canadian oil major Nexen since the country's opposition leader Tony Abbott describes Chinese investment as "complicated".
Dow Jones Newswires's Enda Curran reports Tuesday that Mr. Abbott said he opposes foreign government's taking a controlling stake in an Australian business:
The fact Mr. Abbott's Liberal-National coalition enjoys a firm lead in opinion polls, underscores that if elected as Prime Minister his government would scrutinize investment from China, much of which comes from State-owned entities.
Good news for port-constrained Australian coal producers: there's light at the end of the harbor.
A report by UK-based consultancy Wood Mackenzie shows China's domestic coal production losing competitiveness against imports by 2015–just as many of Australia's big port expansions are completed.
This shift could prompt Chinese companies, including its state-owned power generators, to invest more aggressively in overseas coal mines through M&A as well as spur strong growth in Australian coal exports to China.
Minority shareholders can get trampled in takeovers—especially when the acquirer only needs to win the blessing of a dominant shareholder.
Yanzhou Coal Mining seems to have gone to some lengths to ensure that everyone invested in Gloucester Coal, not just 64.5%-owner Noble Group, is happy with what they're getting from Friday's proposed acquisition. In doing so, the state-backed Chinese miner hopes to avoid provoking an outcry that followed its early big splash in Australia—the A$3.5 billion acquisition of Felix Resources in 2009.
With equity capital markets in Australia set to finish 2011 on a subdued note, many bankers will be hoping for a happier new year. One of the most closely anticipated floats will be Yanzhou Coal Mining's Australian business, comprising largely the assets acquired in a 3.5 billion Australian dollar (US$3.47 billion) takeover of Felix Resources in late 2009.
In an exclusive interview with Deal Journal Australia, Zhang Baocai, Yanzhou's board secretary and deputy general manager, provides an insight into the company's current thinking about the ASX listing.
By Chester Yung
China's Yanzhou Coal Mining plans to list all its Australian coal assets in 2012 rather than only those acquired in a A$3.5 billion takeover of Felix Resources, and is considering a reverse takeover to fulfil commitments to Australia's regulators.
The comments by Zhang Baocai, Yanzhou's board secretary and deputy general manager, will give a shot in the arm to Australia's flagging equity capital markets following a torrid year that saw a biggest IPO of just US$217 million and combined listings worth US$989 million, down 87% compared with 2010.

I have been following the KTM E bike (I kinda bleed orange) and I believe that they too will have a street legal bike on the market in the very near future. Just today, pulled a pic of it on the net - but only to force me to have to clean my laptop, both from drool
and heavy sobs
as its not yet available.
Enjoy your Zero, it looks to be quite enjoyable.
I don't think that we are going to see big increases in range from E Bikes in the near future. I will do some more range tests from this bike including some trail loops here in the near future once the snow leaves the higher loops of the trails. I think that it will pretty well and I predict some great 50-80 mile loop rides from my door that involve a little pavement, dirt, and some twisties.
Bleeding Orange is a fun disease to have if you can afford it! I love the orange ones as well but I have never owned one yet, only ridden friends for a few happy miles and taken some demo rides.

- " Room was very small, it was cramped for 6 people by themselves, never the less 6 travellers with their luggage. On top of that one power point in the room to share. Very much felt like a single bedroom that they just squeezed another 5 beds in. Still, staff were friendly and the breakfast was great. "
- 02 Jul 2015 Anonymous Australia
- " The man who checked me in was very nice. I definitely thought that our room could have been cleaned during the lockout hours. "
- 27 Jun 2015 Brittany USA
- " I had the most wonderful experience at this hostel. It was my first time ever visiting France and my first time in a hostel. I think they set the bar in pretty high! First, the staff were amazing. I was so scared and anxious and jet lagged when I arrived, and Emanuelle (I hope that is her name) did everything she possibly could to help me. The people at the desk can help you get anywhere in Paris. Seriously an amazing experience! Oh, and the breakfast was super great. "
- 12 Jun 2015 Molly USA
- " the owner of hostel was very rude. it was terrible. "
- 25 May 2015 Keunju South Korea
- " Good location, close to metro, restaurants, and banks. Stayed in female dorm of six. FYI- only two plugs in the room. Bathroom was on the smaller size. Clean rooms and beds. Croissants, buns, cereal, juices and coffee offered for breakfast. "
- 07 May 2015 Tonni Canada
- " Dorm room was small but adequate, same for the loo - also in the room. Cleanliness was good but the beds have one bottom sheet, and then a blanket to cover you with - finicky visitors might not like having no second sheet. No in room lockers for those who like to lock their stuff up. The breakfast was super fabulous - coffee/tea and croissants (but as much coffee as you want!) and was the same for hostel or hotel guests. There are kitchen facilities, and the staff was informative and helpful. "
- 28 Apr 2015 Sonia USA
- " I actually didn't make it. There is a changing plan in my journey, and i have to, sadly, cancel my booking and Caulaincourt Boutique Hostel. But the staff of the Hostel were very nice to me and helped with my cancellation. "

- " Fortunately, we booked a six bed room but there were just 5 beds and it was just us two in the end staying there. The room was nice decorated but rather small for 5 people with baggage. A plus is definitely the private bathroom with toilet and shower. The cleaning staff came every day so the facilities were very clean. Also the breakfast was nice. Croissant+bred roll, coffee, juice, cornflakes. Nice and helpful staff. Easy to get to the city with the metro. All in all perfect for the price! "

I happened to be very late for my plane and there was a staff member at the hostel at 07.12.2014 (I think his name started with "Fay..." but that's all I remember :-)) who was extremely helpful, he printed my boarding pass and oredered a taxi for me and I got to the airport at last minute when they were calling my name already. If not for him I would have missed that plane. So: big thank you! "

Harvest Vegetable Soup
21 Feb 2012
This recipe is from HolidaysCentral's 2012 Oscar's Best Picture Inspired Menu, where you can get the full menu and other fun holiday ideas. Since the events that are set off in Best Picture Nominee, The War Horse, are due to a failed harvest, we thought it would be appropriate to enjoy a delicious harvest vegitable stew to remember just how lucky we are to be able to enjoy vegetables at any time of the season in modern times. This soup can be made at any point of the seasons and is flavorful enough for vegetarians and omnivores even when prepared with vegetable stock.
|Olive oil
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Waxy potatoes
|1 Pound, peeled and diced
|1 , diced
|3 , diced
|Celery ribs
|2 , diced
|Kosher salt
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Fresh ground black pepper
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|Low sodium chicken broth/Vegetable broth
|3 Cup (48 tbs)
|Green beans
|1⁄2 Pound, trimmed and cut into bite size pieces
|Chopped fresh parsley
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Red wine vinegar
|1 Tablespoon
1. Prep all the ingredients. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the potatoes, onion, carrot, celery, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften, 8-10 minutes.
2. Pour in the broth and bring it to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes are just tender, 10-12 minutes. Add the green beans, stir to combine and simmer another 5 minutes.
3. Take the pot off the heat and stir the parsley and red wine vinegar into the soup. Add more salt and pepper to taste.

I met Carolyn 4 years ago during a trip to Cape Coral. I was unhappy with my realtor at the time, who kept showing me overpriced properties and telling me what a good deal they were, and decided to give her a try, she seemed motivated and knowledgeable. She found me a couple of good deals on rental properties, even helped get some of the remedial work done, with contacts in the construction and service industry. Both were rented successfully within a few months. I've used her as a rental agent and as my buyer's agent ever since.Curtis HeckmanI started talking with Ms. Giandonato approximately 5 years ago. Being a former realtor myself I knew she was the agent I wanted to work with. When finally ready we listed our property and had it sold quickly! The consumate professional Ms. Giandonato got everything done that she said she would do quickly and painlessly. I highly endorse Ms Giandonato as one of the best realtors I have ever worked with. A honest and true professional. Highest marks to Carolyn Giandonato. Sincerely, Catherine E SwansonCat Swanson

Carolyn Giandonato www dot CarolynGiandonato dot Listingbook dot comAnswered: Dec 13, 2011Did your agent look over the HUD-1 before closing and do their own calculations? Totally your agent's mistake.Answered: Dec 13, 2011Yes they can. But a good agent would have at least given you the opportunity to beat their best offer. They should have asked everyone for their "highest and best" offer by a certain day and time. Usually 24-48 hours. If your offer was a financed deal, and they other offer was cash, that could be why they took it. If you weren't negotiating in good faith, that could be whey they took the other offer. By that I mean, starting with a lowball offer, the seller counters with dropping the price, you counter back raising your offer by VERY LITTLE. At this point, why would the seller continue negotiating? Also, was it a variable rate commission? In that case the listing agent is basically telling other agents, "hey, if I find the buyer, I am lowering the total comission to make my deal sweeter". Totally legal.Answered: Dec 13, 2011Jose- What home are you inquiring about?Answered: Dec 9, 2011Send me your email with your criteria and I will send you listings.Answered: Dec 1, 2011You need a licensed remediation company to do the work and they will dispose of it -- its not the homeowners problem unless they try doing the work themselves. NOT recommended.Answered: Nov 4, 2011In answer to: must you have a down payment to purchase a new home?Whenever a question like this is asked, I always ask myself "what will happen if and when this person buys a house, and 6 months later the A/C quits?" If you can't save money for a downpayment, how will you ever have money to make repairs and upgrades?Answered: Nov 4, 2011In answer to: How do I go about posting photo's and selling my home???The days of FSBOs is over with the technology available to realtors AND buyers. Buyers no longer drive around neighborhoods looking for "For Sale" signs. Anything listed in a Multiple Listing Service can be found on numerous websites by just using google. If you are talking about posting it on THIS website, you must be a licensed Realtor.Answered: Nov 4, 2011Hi Tiffany- If you are inquiring about the rental, it was leased on 9/20/11. The home is not for sale. What exactly are you looking for, a rental or a purchase? I would like to help you. Carolyn GiandonatoAnswered: Oct 25, 2011Addresses on that street only go up to 2xxx. Nothing near the 4000 block. Recheck the address.Answered: Oct 25, 2011I specialize in short sales -- buyers and sellers. Contact me thru Homes dot com and I will place the offer for you. Thanks CarolynAnswered: Oct 24, 2011Find yourself a good buyer's agent. I would advise against contacting the listing agent directly as they represent the SELLER, not you. And if they are selling foreclosures for a bank, they most likely are not even allowed to. They probably could throw you to another agent in their office but even then your interests will be secondary.Answered: Oct 24, 2011What kind of waterfront -- freshwater I can only assume as gulf access would start around $150k and even at that price you would only find old fixer-uppers that require a cash-only deal. Please elaborate on what you are looking for.Answered: Oct 2, 2011In answer to: Is 201136389. 3300 ne 3 rd st capecoralThe address is NW 3rd St. Big difference in location. Of course you can rent without buying. The house is for rent, not sale.Answered: Sep 12, 2011Start with visiting a mortgage broker to see if there is a way for you to qualify for a program. But think about it, if you don't have any money to put down now, how will you make repairs when things break, or need updating in the future?Answered: Sep 12, 2011Your best bet for financing of land is Seller Financing. Since the RE crash, banks will not touch vacant land unless there is a construction loan to build a home. Vacant lots in Cape Coral can be bought for $5000 and Lehigh Acres less than that. Maybe you can get a personal loan for such a small amount.Answered: Aug 29, 2011You need a licensed realtor who is a member of this website. However, I have had the most success in renting homes and apartments using Craigs List.Answered: Aug 29, 2011You need a BUYER's agent to help you. Feel free to call me 239-243-4082. CarolynAnswered: Aug 23, 2011Hi Richard- Are you related to Dean Grob of Riverside? I bought a duplex from his late father in Delanco back in 2000 I think it was. I will check on 30 Haines Mill Rd and get back to you ASAP. CarolynAnswered: Aug 22, 2011Hi- That house is selling as a short sale and the bank has been looking at an offer since May 23rd. I have to also tell you that the builder of the home was Hanson Homes -- they were notorius for Defective Drywall in THAT particular model. If you would like other similar homes -- without defective drywall, of course -- sent to you, contact me. Hope this answered your question. CarolynAnswered: Aug 22, 2011One of my clients has a 1/1 and a 2/2, both on the 6th floor of Harborside South, right at the base of the Cape Coral Bridge. Pool, dock, etc. The 1/1 is fully furnished and the 2/2 is unfurnished, but furniture can be added or removed as needed. Let me know if interested. CarolynAnswered: Aug 16, 2011That unit sold two weeks ago. check your email for the listing. CarolynAnswered: Aug 4, 2011The house is not listed in the local MLS but I am sure that price is for a long term 12 month minimum rental. Seasonal rentals for a house like that in that area would be about $4-5000/month.Answered: Aug 1, 2011Hi- This house is not a seasonal rental -- you need to rent it for 6 months or more -- it is NOT furnished. A seasonal rental with a pool in a nice community would be way more than $2,000 a month. Send me an email and I will search in this same area for you for the month of March 2012. ThanksAnswered: Jul 7, 2011There are no houses on a canal in that price range. Weekly for $800 a week, but not monthly. You might be able to find a condo or duplex, but very unlikely they would allow any dogs yet alone 3 dogs. Sorry for the bad news.Answered: Jul 4, 2011Ann is correct with all her information. But the $45k asking price is unrealistic. The last three 3/2s that sold in there went for $53, $59, and $60k and they all sold within the last month or two.Answered: Jun 18, 2011That home is $7,000 a month.Answered: Jun 10, 2011She should just refer the listing to an agent in New Jersey who is familiar with the area that it is located in. As a RE agent, she should know this. She could probably get someone to give her a 30-35% referral fee as it should be a little easier for the listing agent to sell the home with a seller that is familiar with the process.Answered: Jun 6, 2011In answer to: Is 131 Nicholas Pkwy East for sale? How much?That home is NOT for sale and has never been for sale or for rent since the current owner bought it in 2000. The owners may have moved recently as their homestead exemption is being removed at tht end of this year. I am curious as to why you would ask that question. CarolynAnswered: May 20, 2011Is your son looking for a short term rental -- 1 week to 1 month, or long term -- 6-12 months? My office has a vacation rental department with rents starting at $700 a week and up.Answered: May 18, 2011If you haven't found anything yet, I have a client with a 2/2 on the 6th floor of Harborside Condos on the River by the Cape Coral Bridge. Great Location -- center of everything and close to Fort Myers too. Contact me if interested.Answered: May 18, 2011I just sold the same home a few months ago on an oversized lot in NE Cape near Gator Circle for $37,000. The people who bought it "remediated" it and have it back on the market for $99k. Carolyn

New on Our BlogThe 8 Most Popular Hipster Cities Where Young People Are Calling Home Bobbie Preston It's Hip to Be Where? Hipsterism is an odd cultural phenomenon, in that one of the prerequisites for membership in the club is to vehemently deny said membership. So, how can you find out which cities are the most "hipster?" You can't conduct a hipster survey, as legit hipsters would never deign to participate in such a thing. Instead, you have to comb the data for telltale signs of hipsterdom: things like a young, college educated populace; robust arts and music scenes; and a high per-capita concentration of independent coffee shops, yoga studios, record stores, microbreweries, and farmer's markets. It's also a good idea to find out where recent college grads are planning on moving. So which cities in the country are known for being the hippest? Seattle, Washington Seattle has been hipster since hipster was grunge. OK, you could argue that the two are not the same thing, and you'd be right, but there's definitely more than a little '90s influence in the average hipster ensemble. Seattle has it all: great coffee, a youthful and highly educated populace, an inspired culinary scene, and an artistic community that's been keeping it weird since 1985. Denver, Colorado On the surface, Denver doesn't look like a hipster enclave. But check out neighborhoods like LoHi, South Broadway, and River North, and you'll get the picture pretty quickly. There are plenty of cool little enclaves in the Mile High City, not to mention legal marijuana, left-of-center politics, and facial hair… lots of it. Austin, Texas Austin, Texas is home to the annual SXSW festival, one of the coolest music, film, and interactive extravaganzas in the country. There are more quirky food trucks than you can shake a stick at, and perhaps more importantly, it seems like everyone in Austin is some type of artist. Don't be surprised if you hear things like "Well, I'm a doctor, but that's just my day job. I'm really more of a collage artist." Asheville, North Carolina Like Seattle, Asheville is a place with hipster street cred that dates back to the mid '80s. It's full of independent bookshops, vintage clothiers, and brewpubs. It's not trying to be cool; it just is cool. Asheville seems a bit like Austin's little brother, smaller but less self-conscious. Oakland, California We all know San Francisco is cool – it was basically the birthplace of the whole counterculture movement. It's also become one of the most expensive places to live, which is why savvy hipsters have been relocating to Oakland now for years. What's not to like? Oakland has some of the best farm-to-fork food in the country, and there are plenty of art galleries, live music venues, and old-fashioned barbershops. It's kind of like the Brooklyn of the West. Portland, Oregon Portland, Oregon has long been known as a hipster enclave, but it's really blown up over the past ten years. Some locals say that's not necessarily a good thing, as formerly affordable blue-collar neighborhoods are razed to make way for high-rent condos every week, it seems.

Price reduced! All vehicle trades considered, including classics and performance.
If you're looking for a great way to cruise then check out this 1966 Fairlane 500. It is a rare 2-door sedan body style and equipped with its original 390ci engine and C6 automatic transmission. And with just 63k miles on its solid body, it is an eye-catching car you can drive anywhere.
The 1966-67 fifth generation Fairlane design is a true classic and the most desirable body style of the Fairlanes. The stacked headlights and clean sides gave the car a sleeker appearance than previous Fairlanes, and the just-right proportions looked more sporty than the larger models from 1968-on. And while there are plenty of 2-door hardtop models on the market, the post cars (aka 2-door sedan or Club Coupe) are much harder to find.
Body stylings aside, this car has a great period look with one repaint in its original turquoise color on its original sheetmetal. The body is straight and free of any rust issues as well. The car has a nostalgic drag race look with steel wheels in back and Torq Thrusts in front, but has a very comfortable ride. The interior has been redone in its original light aqua color scheme. The aftermarket dash tach adds to the ambiance, while the underdash gauges provide good monitoring. Everything is in great condition and in good working order including the horn, heater, radio, courtesy light, and windshield wipers.
This H-code car retains its original 390ci 275hp motor as verified by build dates. It is essentially stock with a few chrome dress-up parts. The car may have the look of a racer, but this motor is much more of a cruiser. It starts effortlessly and idles smoothly. It pulls great without any fuss, and with its factory 9.5:1 compression ratio is well suited for modern gasoline octane levels. There is also a modern aluminum radiator with electric fan to ensure things remain cool even in the hottest parade. The C6 automatic transmission was Ford's strongest of the day. The same is true of the 9-inch rear end. Brakes are manual drums, and the steering is manual as well.
This is a Fairlane you can really have some fun with. It has a rare body style with a great look. The drivetrain is easy to live with and very reliable. The interior is comfortable and spacious. The car is in great condition throughout. And the price makes it one of the more affordable and practical cars from this era.
Price: $17,500

I have a friend who has Cockers. She had puppies on January 10th and are 4 weeks old. She has started feeding them last week and the love their cereal mixed with ground turkey meat.
My friend woke up this morning and went in to let momma out for potty break and she found that she was dead. (Dog will be taken in for necropsy Monday)
Any suggestions in bringing up this litter without their mother?
I appreciate any input.
First, I am sorry to hear about this. For the puppies, if they are eating well on their own, they will do fine dietarily at this age however, please be wary of feeding advice. Many veterinary schools have a veterinary nutritionist. I have a MS in animal nutrition. It is important to find a quality puppy food that they like and to mix several kinds together. Puppies MAY imprint on a taste of dog food so I suggest using a mix of several types. Personally I also mix a wet food with the dry food. Next, adding a milk replacer is not a bad idea. Puppies at this age still need to suck and a daily or 2x daily use of a bottle would give them that social need. Puppies also learn dog behavior at 6 to 8 weeks of age so littermates are important or perhaps bringing in another sweet dog that would be kind and socialize with the older (6-8 ) week old puppies. All these things are a little more work but it certainly can be done and you can have healthy puppies.
The best of luck to your friend on this.
at 4 weeks they will do fine on puppy food. Just soak puppy food (kibble) with water for a while and then mush it, they can eat softened food just fine. Keep the litter together for proper socialization and if there is a gentle friendly adult dog they can spend time with, all the better. Until the litter is at least 8 weeks, they should stay together.
Goats milk is the closest thing to dam's. I start at 3-4 weeks on goats milk (our walmarts carry canned and dairy case paper quarts) mixed with raw ground meat (turkey, chicken beef), rice baby cereal, and gradually by 8 weeks have them on good puppy food with water/milk mixed. Make sure the pups are wormed every 10 days with panacur or strongid (1cc per 10 pounds) which you can mix in the gruel. It is very very safe wormer, so I would put in a little more - I used 12 cc for 8 pups - to be sure they all got it.
I mix dry food (what mom was eating) with warm goat's milk in a food processor. They should lick the mush right up, but if they don't stick their noses in it and let them lick it off. They'll get the hang of it in a couple of tries.
We feed the kibble with the goat's milk as well.
Point noted before - the adult dog that will do well with the young puppies. Critical
We start our pups out on wet food at 4 weeks old at work. Use the goats milk or warm water and let is set a bit to soften up. Make like a oatmeal paste out of it and they should do fine on it. Resorb is also good for them to put into their food for extra nourishment. Good luck with the pups.
Goats milk do not microwave any food for pups depletes all vitamins and is not good for milk products either, a lot of formula and milk replacers tell uyou that on the container....
Read Kevin Trudeau's New Book Nutritional Secrets they dont want you to know Natural Medical ways and what our world of Pharmacutical and medicine have dealt to us and our dogs and their diets....vitamin defeciency is the reason for most of our pups illness.....and the breed period.......read and research....what you use to know is not necessarily so today.....new horizon with microwaves,,,no fat ingredients,,,,aspartame , lots of deceptive chemicals in our foods and the dog and puppy foods....., flavor enhanceents in our dog food and ours to make us like it and create appetites for more of it.... if man invented it and made it dont eat it......
raw goat milk is actually much better if you have someone in your community that can supply you,.....

Power of Pink
Power of Pink! is an educational forum to raise awareness about women and breast cancer. The Power of Pink! Luncheon, began 20 years ago as the Jan Moore Memorial Lecture. Ms. Moore lost her battle to breast cancer in 1993. Her courage and determination won the hearts of her friends, family, and hospital leaders, and as a result those who knew her wanted to help others know the facts about breast cancer. What began as a handful of women discussing breast cancer over sack lunches in the hall of CHI St. Luke's Health Memorial has grown to a luncheon that caters to almost 800 women from the community.
This year's luncheon featured Susan Sparks. A trial lawyer, turned standup comedian and Baptist minister, Rev. Susan Sparks is America's only female comedian with a pulpit. Ms. Sparks, a breast cancer survivor, will present "Humor and Healing While Going Through Hell," a program that explores the power of humor in difficult situations. Ms. Sparks has been featured in "O (The Oprah) Magazine," the New York Times, USA Today, CBS The Early Show, on ABC and CNN. Her book, Laugh Your Way to Grace: Reclaiming the Spiritual Power of Humor was named one of the best spiritual books of 2010 with over 10,000 copies sold.

Community members were encouraged to decorate bras in memory or in honor of someone they know who has fought breast cancer or just to support the cause. The decorated bras were judged prior to and displayed at the luncheon.
