Obrycki's Crab House has been since 1944, but this is the last season you'll be able to get your crab on (whether snow crab, Dungeness crab, or their famous hard-shell blue crabs) at the Baltimore institution. Over the years, the ownership has changed as did the location (in 1986 they moved across the street), but current owner Rob Cernak decided to close after a death in the family. You have until November 5th to walk in and still hear the sound of mallets striking crab shells. More
These Garlic and Black Pepper Soft-Shell Crabs from Andrea Reusing's Cooking in the Moment get briefly dunked in fish sauce, coated in garlic and pepper-spiked rice flour, and fried until crackling crisp. Opting for rice flour instead of wheat flour gives these crabs an almost potato chip like crunch, and the fish sauce lends just the right amount of savory, oceanic tang. More

One of the nicest things about buying live crabs instead of lump crab meat is that you get the whole measure of the animal—not only its succulent flesh, but also its creamy innards and the sweet, briny juices that pool in the curve of the shell. My usual procedure is to steam the crab with beer and call it a day. The innards, if you can catch them before they fully congeal, are very good to eat straight from the shell. More
The great thing about real red summer tomatoes is they don't need much help. Usually I just sprinkle them with a bit of salt, and maybe some olive oil. But I was attracted to this variation from Gourmet, because it seemed like such an elegant little salad. The tomato would form a base for some seasoned crab meat. Paired with bread, this makes for an absolutely perfect light dinner. More

Living in Saigon, I'm constantly adding new Vietnamese words to my vocabulary. It's fascinating how some terms stick straightaway, while others, regardless of how many times I run into them, refuse to integrate into my lexicon. For instance, I can't seem to remember the words for menu, even though I ask to see one practically every day. However, just one tasty encounter with soft-shell crabs was all it took for the words cua lot to be forever seared into my mind. I guess the part of my brain that processes new information is directly connected to my taste buds. I visited Quán 94, a restaurant specializing in crabs, a few weeks back with a travel journalist named Peter. I... More
The Grocery Ninja leaves no aisle unexplored, no jar unopened, no produce untasted. Creep along with her below, and read her past market missions here. I know it's only April, but this may be my food find of the year. Tiny, freshwater crabs—each barely two inches across—are soused with water, sprinkled with Kosher salt, and stuck live in the fridge. Hours later, they're skillfully pressed and prodded to extract a grainy, coral paste that Pinoys like to mix with freshly steamed white rice, its richness cut through with a generous squirt of calamansi juice—a poor (or busy) man's paella, if you will. The thing is, I'm not positive what the gorgeously creamy, salty, slightly tangy stuff is. My bottle says... More

After reading Bryan Waterman's definitive account of crabbing near the San Juan Islands in Washington I have a newfound interest in going crab hunting and eating the flesh of the freshly killed crustaceans. And by "going crab hunting" I mean "watching other people do the dirty work" since I have no proclivity towards handling live seafood and I'd probably get a finger pinched off after poking a crab in the wrong spot. But after all the catching and killing is done I bet the rewarding mountain of steamed crab tastes really good.... More

Has Anyone EVER Been 3-Under After One Hole?
That isn't some random question, I'm being serious - has that ever happened, ever, because it did Thursday at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Alex Cejka, on the 10th hole of Monterey Peninsula Country Club made a double-eagle. It was his first hole of the day. He was 3-under through one.
Now, a contest for anyone willing to do it ... find out if this has ever happened, EVER. I'm sure it hasn't, but I'd be interested to know. Has anyone ever gone albatross hunting on the first hole of a round, and/or the first hole of a tournament?
Because, honestly, would there be a better feeling than walking down your second fairway of the day, seeing a friend in the other fairway, and doing the three-low finger sign? "Yep, three-under through one, bro. Not bad."

Ask for Help
"Brent and Kris asked if anyone had encountered an after_destroy callback being called twice?"
Few suggestions were check that it was only one object being deleted, that there are no dependent objects being cascade deleted, etc.
"Joe asked about how to set default_url_options for? There are no mailers involved as far as he knew."
Grant suggested trying to set it per class.
"New Lee asked about were there any updates/alternatives for AccessList as the gem is causing him grief with sorting."
Ian knew of an alternative to AccessTree, Lee is still looking.
Interesting Things
- Jonathon pointed out that background-color: cover and :clipping were useful for playing with background images
- New Lee brought up that if you're using a form builder on a collection Rails will create a hidden for ID which will always get inserted (and may cause a problem if you're nesting things in a ul or table). To get around this put in a hidden for ID in an appropriate place and Rails will stop generating one.
- Jonathon ended up being pointed towards Heydown as an alternative to ShowOff for presentations by Davis

She cooked for the Waitsfield school system and worked at the Waitsfield Laundromat and at Neill's farm. Joan enjoyed RV-ing, hiking, croquet, word games and spending time at camp with her family and friends.
Joan was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She is predeceased by her parents and one brother, Randall Pecor.

Buying music

Re: Buying music
I'm not about to condone downloading-without-paying in general as there seems to have been a great deal of discussion about that. However, on a related note, in the UK everyone who owns a TV capable of receiving broadcasts from the BBC is obliged to buy a TV license (unless they can prove that they watch every other kind of TV other than that produced by the BBC). Currently the TV license fee is around £145 GBP per year per household and all the broadcasting departments of the BBC - including BBC national and local radio as well as online content - are funded by the license fee.
In the year 2009/10 revenue collected from license fees made up a total sum of about £3.5 billion GBP. As a public service broadcaster, the BBC is obliged to cater for audiences of all types of music from classical to folk to country to jazz to rock and pop and so on. Their flagship national pop/rock-music radio station is Radio One. Like a lot of radio stations, Radio One has a
of tunes that have been
especially selected
by the station controllers to be played regularly on a daily basis across a variety of programmes in order to give those tracks the maximum exposure that can be afforded. There is even a hierarchy; so bigger-name acts make the A-list, the B-list will be for up-and-comings, and C is for not-yet-heard-ofs and soon-to-be-forgottens (roughly speaking). A-list songs will be played about 20 times a week in prime-time slots, B is 10 to 15, C about 5 plays a week.
What this means is that the approximately 25 million license payers in the UK are effectively
funding advertising
for artists which ensures that after the requisite 4 weeks on the playlist prior to release, the songs will inevitably chart highly when they are eventually released. Most people buy what they are told to buy so having listened to the same 12 songs for a month it's no surprise what they'll go for when they step into a store to buy a record. So the nation pays for a radio station that plays records by Rihanna (or whoever) all week long and when the record is released it sells by the truck load thanks to the exposure provided by public-service broadcasting (including a similar amount of airtime on national BBC TV stations) and SRP music walk off with a tidy sum of money [added to which the owner of the IP of the material will receive royalties from PRS through their UK publisher every time the song is played].
All well and good, you say: so what?
After the announcement of the prosecution of The Pirate Bay, an
interview with the record-producer Pete Waterman aired on network TV
news in the UK. This was the man who in the '80s brought you Bananarama, Dead or Alive, Kylie Minogue, Rick Astley etc - all pop acts who have topped the charts in the UK, US, Europe, Australia, pretty much anywhere records are sold. What kind of stuck in my craw was the way he was bleating on about the cheek of people in the UK who download music for nothing bringing about the demise of the record industry; surely the people who are ripping off recording artists are the same ones who are contributing funds to the BBC radio and TV stations that helped (in a considerable way) to make Pete Waterman, and others like him, as successful as he became?
I realise that this issue of state-funded broadcasting doesn't apply everywhere, but the UK is not an insignificant record market and I feel it is more than a little crass to be lectured by the likes of Pete Waterman about the iniquity of internet piracy when he has had his career bolstered by a nation of listeners who have no real say about what they listen to on the BBC radio and TV channels that they are paying for.

Soaps Boards :: Guiding Light Forum :: Reva and Josh
Please register and login to be able to post in this message board.
Quote Soap Fan: Josh and Reva deserve to come together in a united front to conquer the cancer. They need to keep searching 'together' as they 'always' have to find the miraculous cure to keep her (Kim) on the show. Josh and Reva for me as a viewer are 'forever, always'. Cassie needs to back off Josh. Sisters in normal circumstance sharing one man is taboo. It's worse when one of them is dying....whether the others know or not. It just shouldn't be happening.
I agree 100% cassie dose not belong with josh .Its always been reva and josh the way it should be.Sisters just dont do that . I belive that josh and reva should do this together. I also hope theyu keep reva on. if they choose to let reva go, I will find another show
Right on!!! I will not watch if she was gone. I almost couldn't watch after they got rid of Laura Wright (Cassie) and put that skunk on to replace her. I can't stand to look at her and josh. I don't watch them, I FFWD through them its gross. I hate this storyline and I cannot wait until NOV just so something different will happen. I mean I know they said she will live somehow. But just saying just in response to this wacky storyline. What were they gonna say when she died of cancer?? What would everybody be told? A bid lie? I dunno, I just think this illness affects alot of ppl and that it should be approached with support from her fam not just billy. Its just sad she's cheating herself and everyone else. Anyway back to subject. NO MORE CASSIE AND JOSH!
I have watched Guiding Light for many years and have seen
:0 I agree about Josh and Cassie! The whole thing between the two of them just makes me sick. The characters would not be like that about what was going on with Reva in Reality...I think they would be a little more interested in what is going on with Reva. PLEASE get to the point. I love guiding light but honestly, I'm getting tired of this bit between all of them.
I agree, They really need to have reva tell the truth.It is getting a little old. Josh still cares about her and she still cares about josh so put them back together. Josh and Cassie just don't match. The old Cassie was alot better. Cause she never would have gotten with josh. The other cassie was always worried about her own life. N-Eways Reva and Billy don't match either. So just hurry up and let tell josh so he can help her and make her all better if they can.
Too bad every person who watches Guiding Light can't read this andmake a decision to not watch for an entire day. I bet the Powers that Be would get rid of this stupid storyline then. I would think that Kim Zimmer would have enough clout to say "enough is enough."

The fourth-seeded Aggies (25-6) will face second-seeded and seventh-ranked Baylor (26-5) in their second consecutive and second-ever Big 12 championship game appearance in program history on Sunday, March 15 at 12:30 p.m. (CT). The game will be televised nationally on Fox Sports Net with the winner earning the league's automatic bid to the upcoming 2009 NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship field of 64. The Lady Bears defeated third-seeded Iowa State (24-8) in the second semifinal game, 63-57.
For the second-straight contest, senior All-America candidate Danielle Gant (Oklahoma City, Okla.) came up big with 17 of her game-high 22 points in the second half of play. Gant shot 7-of-8 from the floor and 8-of-9 from the free throw line to lead the Aggies past the Sooners (28-4) in back-to-back games for the third time in the all-time series.
Sophomore point guard Sydney Colson (Houston, Texas) also knocked down a career-and season-high 15 points along with five assists, two steals and a trio of three-pointers which extended A&M's lead into double figures versus OU. The Aggies were the only league team to deny the Sooners a perfect regular season at 15-1 and account for two of the team's four losses this year.
Junior Tanisha Smith (Kansas City, Mo.) and senior All-America candidate Takia Starks (Houston, Texas) rounded out A&M's double-figure scorers with 13 and 12 respectively.
The A&M defense caused havoc for the Sooners throughout the ballgame with 17 turnovers which the Aggies converted into 18 points. OU senior All-American Courtney Paris was called with her third foul and played only 12 minutes in the first half as A&M took a 29-21 lead into halftime. They were never able to regain the lead in the second half. Paris fouled out of the game with 3:23 remaining in regulation, but ended with a team-high 15 points and 15 rebounds. Danielle Robinson added 11 for the Sooners.

Letter to the Editor: Educating public about plastic bag litter
CORPUS CHRISTI - David Lutito
Educating public about plastic bags
I was enlightened to read the article "Corpus Christi officials, residents focus on ordinance, proposals to limit plastic bag litter" in advocating this specific proposal. Having lived in Corpus for over 12 years, the effects of the plastic bag trash litter are clear throughout the city and more importantly the beach.
A large majority of these bags end up on our front porch, directly onto our beaches affecting what we take for granted and what other organisms call their home. By supporting and publishing articles over policies like this that provide tangible economic implications for using products such as plastic bags, you are harnessing attention and gaining support for a cause that breaches much farther than what the public sees and for this I applaud you.
Every article, newsletter, and media attention presented over topics like these aid those who are concerned with keeping our beautiful oceans clean. Keep up the good work.

David O'Brien, the commissioner of the Vermont Department of Public Service, sent a letter to VT Digger this week explaining an issue that has plagued him for a few years: The allegations that he was too cozy with Entergy, the owner of the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant.
Shay Totten, the columnist at Seven Days, reported last year that O'Brien, whose job it is to represent ratepayers before the Public Service Board, had Thayer, the then-vice president of operations at VY, over to his Stowe home for a holiday dinner.
That raised some eyebrows, especially since Entergy was seeking the department's support – and the Board's approval – for some major plans, including extending the life of the plant for another 20 years. O'Brien denied that the party was improper and said that business was not discussed.
With problems plaguing VY, this issue hasn't gone away. In fact, it's become a bit of a chain around O'Brien's ankle and an easy plot point to point to for someone convinced that the regulators are too close to the industry they oversee.
O'Brien has continued to defend that party and this week took to Anne Galloway's Web site to state that he would do it again if he could.
Here's what he said:
In hindsight I regret being forthcoming about my personal holiday party, I should have answered that it was no one's business who visits my home. Ever since this matter was first raised I feel as though my personal space has been invaded.
What do you think? Should state officials who oversee certain industries be allowed to party with those executives on their off-time. Is this no big deal? Clearly, O'Brien doesn't benefit from having Thayer over his home. But did Thayer benefit? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
– Dan Barlow

During yesterday's State of the State address, Governor Cuomo revealed several initiatives to spur economic development and increase state revenue. One includes a plan to expand gambling in New York by adding three Las Vegas-style casinos upstate.
The governor said 90 percent of the state's share of the casinos' revenue would go to education and 10 percent would go to local governments for tax relief.
This year, the state legislature is expected to vote on an amendment to the state constitution that would allow up to seven Las Vegas-style casinos outside of Indian land. If the measure passes, voters would also vote on the amendment in November.

Rangers had a bid for the 23-year-old accepted, bu the Australian defender did not want to drop down to the Third Division.
"Hearts accepted a bid but I rejected it," said the full-back in the Daily Record.
"Ally McCoist called me to go and see him, which I did out of courtesy, but I explained I didn't think it was the right move.
"I was put in a position with Hearts accepting the bid. Rangers may have good players but you only improve by playing against the best, and that's in the SPL, not Division Three.
"It's a massive club but it wouldn't have helped my international prospects. It was a football decision."

The 2006 war in Lebanon convinced the Swiss that DRA10 was the right way to go.
With no other troops capable of getting trapped Swiss citizens out of Lebanon,
the Swiss realized that their 2003 decision to form DRA10 was a good one. Swiss were simply doing what many other
nations had already done, and formed a commando unit to deal with these situations,
as well as any domestic emergency requiring men with commando skills.
Recruits were accepted from the reserve army (of
most males) the Swiss have maintained for over a century. About 300 a year have
applied, for a job that requires five years of active duty, after they have
gotten through the 18 months of training. On top of that, they cannot talk
about what they do, although it's no secret who's in the unit.

At CPAC 2014 Tom Minnery hosted a panel discussion, a loosely monitored debate, if you will, discussing whether libertarians and social conservatives can get along. As the discussion progresses the answer to that question was a resounding yes and no. They are two separate movements within the landscape of American politics, and they are largely finding their home in one of the two major parties after all.
There are issues that separate these two political movements and there always will be. They are two political movements with a large minority of voters. Neither political movement is going to achieve any success in the American political system all by themselves. The fact of the matter is both major political parties hate both of these movements. Just as obvious is the fact that these two political movements are absolutely aligned on a multitude of issues. The CPAC 2014 panel discussion made this abundantly clear.
Neither libertarians or the Christian right should allow the state to educate their children. Unfortunately the Christian right has largely come to view the state as the answer to the failures of the state run education system. It remains to be seen, but it will be a huge departure from libertarian principles if you do not find libertarians refusing to allow their children to be educated in a government education system, whether the state provides vouchers and/or charter schools or not. Libertarians should recognize that school choice is not dependent upon legislative action. When all libertarians and a significant number of the Christian right pull their children out of the government run schools you will see a unified move by the two groups to end the injustice of forcing those who are not using, and in most cases, do not believe in state run education, to fund said system.
The Christian right often argues that the state must be involved in the issue of marriage. The panel members at CPAC 2014 have some compelling arguments to make that case. They make the argument that the fact that marriage constitutes a contract that must be adjudicated if broken requires that the state has an interest in marriage. It could be that this argument is an argument for parents to be involved in the process of their children's marriage. It is true that some government must be set in place to adjudicate in the marriage of two individuals. The question the Christian right needs to answer is why must that government necessarily be the state. Could not a marriage covenant be governed by the church?
Both libertarians and the Christian right recognizes the need to cut the scope in which the state is involved in the lives of it's citizens. They can and will begin to form alliances to address this issue. There will certainly continue to be differences between the two political movements when it comes to how society should deal with moral issues like sodomy, adultery, in which one could include pornography, abortion and the like. On those issues they will part company. The fact that CPAC 2014 was able to open the discussion between these two powerful minorities makes it apparent that you will see victory on many issues due to collaboration between libertarians and the Christian right.

Discussing Change
I was talking to a nice guy who was in dire straits the other day. He laid before me many of his problems. His marriage was crumbling. He was in massive debt. He was making less money than he used to. He was living an unhealthy lifestyle. He was unhappy, depressed, and frustrated with where he was in life. He asked me for my advice. He wanted to know how I changed so many things in my life in such a short period of time.
I explained that I didn't have any advice for him. I told him that he knew his situation better than I ever could, and he likely knew what to do. I asked him what advice he'd give himself if he was in my shoes. He told me what he would say to himself. And, it's funny, all his ideas sounded like great advice. Then, I explained why taking our own advice is the hardest pill to swallow.
But he didn't like his own advice because it was too gradual. Plus, his advice wasn't easy. He was recommending small, incremental changes—changes that wouldn't likely make a huge difference right away. Instead, he wanted the magic pill, he wanted something that would radically change his life immediately, he wanted instant gratification. His advice seemed so basic, so intuitive, so vapid that obviously it's not what I did to change my life—obviously I had the secret answer with this whole minimalism thingy.
I said that while I had no advice for him, I could tell him how I changed my life, and he could see if any of those changes were applicable to his situation, and if they were, he could use my life as an example. Then I simply echoed his advice back to him, and applied it to my life. You see, I didn't have a magic strategy either. It took me two long years to get where I am now—one small change at a time.
Two Years of Incremental Changes
Two years ago, I was also unhappy, in debt, out of shape, and stuck.
It took me two years to pay off most of my debt and establish a minimalist budget. I focused on paying off one creditor at a time. I allocated every extra dollar to pay off my car. I sold my house and moved into an apartment. I got rid of any superfluous bills (e.g., cable TV, Internet, etc.).
It took me two years to get into the best shape of my life, exercising every day and completely changing my diet over time.
It took me two years to give less meaning to my physical possessions, focusing instead on important relationships, personal growth, and contribution.
It took me two years to get away from corporate America and pursue my passions.
None of it happened over night. And it certainly wasn't easy, but a lot can change in a year or two. I changed my life by focusing on small changes each day. I focused on those small changes, not on everything I wanted to change. And then, one day, I looked in the rearview mirror and everything was different.

Anglicans from around the country gathered in Charleston last week to hear speakers discuss the confluence of those traditionally competing spheres of study, science and faith.
Sponsored by Mere Anglicanism, the ninth annual conference at the Charleston Music Hall was entitled "Science, Faith, and Apologetics: An Answer for the Hope That is Within Us."
"There's hardly a more pressing issue at the dawn of the 21st century than science and faith," the Rev. Jeff Miller, chairman of Mere Anglicanism, said in a statement.
About 650 people attended the three-day event that this year explored "the evidences of God's handiwork in the cosmos," said the Rev. Dr. Peter Moore, associate rector at St. Michael's in Charleston.
Oxford University mathematician John Lennox, who has debated prominent atheists Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, opened the conference tackling naturalism and "scientific fundamentalism."
Science, he argued, needs God to account for the origins of things.
"Science may explain the how, but it cannot explain the why," Lennox said.
Speakers included:
Alvin Carl Plantinga, the John A. O'Brien Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at the University of Notre Dame and inaugural holder of the Jellema Chair in Philosophy at Calvin College
C. John "Jack" Collins, professor of Old Testament at Covenant Theological Seminary
Michael J. Behe, intelligent design advocate and biochemistry professor at Lehigh University
Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali, former bishop of Rochester, general secretary of the Church Mission Society and bishop of Raiwind in Pakistan
Stephen C. Meyer, director of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute in Seattle.
"The speakers did a good job of explaining that if terms are defined, it is really a battle of world views, and Christians should have every confidence that science and faith are compatible bedfellows and all truth is God's truth in God's world," said the Rev. Kendall Harmon, associate rector at Christ St. Paul's Church on Younges Island.
Clergy of the Diocese of South Carolina organized the event. Several speakers officiated local worship services after the event.

A walk in Saturday morning's bright sunlight symbolized moving out of the darkness into the light for supporters of Ashe Suicide/Depression Awareness and Prevention Task Force (ASAP).
The annual event had a different venue this year as walkers took to the streets of West Jefferson, beginning and ending at Backstreet Park.
Speaker J.P. Jameson talked about the "frightening" statistics of suicide in Ashe County, with the highest per capita rate of suicide in the state, double that of the state and nation. It is a public health crisis and an ongoing community health problem, he said.
"I hope you see your neighbors supporting you and your path to the future so don't forget but work toward a solution," Jameson said. "I am happy to walk with you today and happy to walk with you in the future."
Cullie Tarleton was also a speaker at the event, telling the crowd of about 40 participants that "suicide is a vicious and terrible way to die, usually alone."
Tarleton said his father was a victim of suicide at 35 years old, when Cullie was only 10. A victim, Tarleton said, because suicide is not the act of a rational person but someone who has lost hope. He said he has two friends who survived suicide attempts and with proper treatment are today happy, life-loving individuals.
"That's why it's good to see the community involved," Tarleton said. "Your work will save lives. Is anything more important?"
Michael Lea talked about how the community can provide awareness and support. "This walk is symbolic," he said, "that we walk this journey together, out of darkness into light and hope." And ASAP is there to provide support and encouragement to those in crisis and their loved ones.
MaKayla Church performed a moving dance to Rascal Flatts' "Why?" and led by members of Ashe County Middle School's 5 Mile Club, the walkers set off on their journey, returning to the park for a story from Ken Morris and a circle of hope to remember those lost to suicide and their grieving loved ones.
For help, call 246-HEAL, a 24-hour crisis line. For information about ASAP and meetings, call 846-0781.

In this instructable we turn a hard drive into a speaker.
Step 1: Items Needed
1. Hard Disk Drive
2. Soldering Iron
3. Wire Cutter
4. T9 Torx Screw Driver
Step 2: Disassemble the hard disc drive.
Step 3: Remove the magnet on the top.
Step 5: Remove the head of the HDD.
Step 6: Now for some hacking.
Note: The thinner the wires are, the better, because then the read/write head will have enough room to move freely.
Step 7: Spindle Motor Hack.
This step isn't necessary but adds to it.
Step 8: Reassemble the HD.
Step 9: Completed.
I had no amplifier lying around so used OpAmp from Expeyes (pocket oscilloscope) and worked fine! Thanks
I wanted volume so I pushed in 130 Watt in it! HAHAHA, it starded to smoke^^
But the volume was high.
The harddrive speakers can stand aboud 110 Watt:D
one is a ground and danymw just has a different hard drive
test out each terminal with test leads
youll find the two that work
good luck
That should take care of burning amplifiers and sound inconsistencies.
I better start keeping an eye out for computers on the side of the road now :P
A lower resistance will be a problem.
(the ideal amplifier has very high gain, very low input impedance and very high output impedance)
I think my concept is accurate, can someone confirm?
If anyone could help me I'd love it :D
Here are some more ideas when you have some more drives handy:
Keep up the great work!

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - The University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University each received a grade of "B" for requiring students to take a variety of general education courses.
The American Council of Trustees and Alumni report - "What Will They Learn" - says OU and OSU each require students to take five of seven core subject areas.
Both require general education courses in composition, science, foreign language, mathematics and American history or government.
Neither OU or OSU require core courses in economics or literature, although they are among courses students can choose to take.
Only five of 100 universities in the report got a ranking of A, and none of those required all seven subject areas.

Bank Owned Waterfront Homes in Florida
Since the burst of the housing bubble, the nation as a whole has watched real estate values tumble back to the late 80's and early 90's.
Florida, a state heavily dependant on tourism, was one of the hardest hit during the recession.
As the tourism dollars dissipated, unemployment rates began to rise, builders stopped building, developers went bankrupt, and foreclosure filings were reaching the hundreds of thousands.
This sounds like it was Florida's demise, but I have to say that we are still alive and well. We have experienced increased sales volumes, lower inventories, and a stabilization of home values across the state. International buyers who have held out in recent years are once again acquiring properties and statistics now show that more people are moving into the state rather than moving out.
What does it mean for Real Estate?
Real estate, like the stock market, operates in a periodic cycle.
We are once again at the beginning of a cycle.
And if the census data is correct, we may certainly see the housing demand increase.
In summary, today's home prices will most likely be gone tomorrow.
According to the US Census Department, Florida's average decennial population increase over the past 100 years is 39.2%. This means that Florida's 2010 population of 18,801,310 could potentially increase to 26,171,423 by 2020; which is only a little over 6 years away.
Another note to consider is that Florida has historically dominated the population increase percentage in the Southeast during those past 100 years.
Are there still great deals?
Yes and no.
Despite what you may have heard, banks are simply not selling properties for 50 cents on the dollar.
In fact, many are holding off putting the foreclosed homes on the market (shadow inventory) in order to ride the current cycle upward.
Homes priced more than 5% below market value typically need extensive cosmetic work or have other issues that need to be resolved. In most all cases, caveat emptor "Buyer Beware" would apply as the Bank typically does not provide a property disclosure.
Will you help me find a Waterfront Home?
If you are interested in acquiring a waterfront property, I suggest that you preview the current inventory by clicking the "Search Now" button or receive a detailed list of Waterfront Homes For Sale by clicking the "Get the List" button.
Once we narrow in on a few that you like, we'll begin investigating items such as the overall condition and maintenance of the property, flood insurance requirements, home owner association rules and regulations, and recent sales of simular properties.
When you are ready, give me a call or click here to send me an instant message.
How much will I have to pay you?
Nothing. In Florida, the Seller typically pays the Brokerage Commission at closing.

Banks are trying to recoup billions of dollars that they'll lose to new regulations, and it's customers who are feeling the pinch.
How can you avoid getting hit with a barrage of new fees every time you change your account or use your debit card?
Let Mellody Hobson help!
Hobson, the president of Ariel Investments and "Good Morning America's" personal finance contributor, took to the streets to find out how people are dealing with all of the new charges.
She appeared on "GMA" to answer questions and offer tips to help save you money.
Q: Why are banks introducing the new fees?
A: The new fees are a direct response to new regulations such as the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 and the Credit Card Act of 2009, that, in part, limit the fees banks can charge merchants when customers use a debit card to pay for a purchase. It's estimated that, through these regulations, about $7 billion will be saved by merchants, who will hopefully pass along the savings to you.
Q: Should you pay a debit card fee, or switch banks?
A: The short answer is maybe. It depends on a number of factors, such as ATM availability and other bank fees. For example, big banks have many ATMS so, most likely, you will only rarely have to use an out-of-network ATM. If you switch to a smaller bank that does not have as many ATMS, you could end up paying more in ATM fees than the debit card fee. Also, don't forget about other fees such as overdraft fees and checking account fees. Before you switch banks, make sure you understand all of these fees. Bankrate.com is a great website to comparison shop for banks in your area.
Q: What are some other bank fees that people should try to avoid?
A: Minimum Balance Fees. The free checking account is quickly becoming a thing of the past as many banks now charge fees if you do not maintain a minimum balance. The good news is that most banks will waive the fee if you set up direct deposit, or if you complete a certain number of transactions with the bank each month. Some banks also allow you to combine your money from different accounts in order to meet the minimum balance requirement, so you should definitely try to keep your checking account and savings account in the same place.
Overdraft Fees. Before the Credit Card Act of 2009, banks gave customers "overdraft protection" that was not protection at all. The bank would "protect" you from having a transaction rejected if you did not have enough money in your bank account, but then charge you $30 to $35 for the protection, possibly turning a $3 coffee into a $38 purchase. The act requires that customers "opt-in" to receive this feature from their banks. Protect yourself from overspending by never, never opting-in.
Also remember that each time your bank introduces a new fee, it will send you a notice by mail or email. Make sure you read and understand every notice you receive and follow up with your bank for more information if there is something you do not understand.

A bit of a wait to get a table but food is served super quickly once you sit down. Cheap, fresh, and tasty - particularly the dumplings! Service also was friendly and efficient.

Amazing authentic noodle shop. If you haven't been...go now.
Posted by anonymous on 10/14/2010
The ramen was very salty. It was so salty that I kept drinking water hours after eating there. And the bamboo shoots in the soup were previously canned and had way too much preservatives. On the other hand, the pork slices had the right balance of sweetness and tenderness and tasted perfect. The steam dumplings were also good. The place was crowded when I was there but had a warm atmosphere. And staff was quite attentive. When it comes to the food quality, though, it is a little disappointing, especially if you choose this place after reading so many positive reviews here.

This amazing restaurant was discovered two years ago when my grandfather came into the city and randomly discovered this. He took my mom and sister and they loved it. (I wasn't present for this outing.) A few weeks later after my grandfather left the city, my mom and sister wanted to go back and invited me along. The atmosphere was friendly and opening. Although, a majority of the visitors are Japanese. It is a comfortable environment and I love sitting there and eating my vegatable ramen noodles and curry rice. The dumplings and fried rice are just as fabulous also. However, I highly recommend the ramen! (:

We have tried tonkotsu ramen in many ramen places and are glad to announce Menkui-Tei (this branch on 56th St, not the one in St Mark's) has the best tonkotsu ramen and very very high quality dumplings as well as hiyashi cold noodles!! This restaurant has the feel of an authentic Japanese eatery and we love watching and hearing the cooks whip up the goodies :)

I love going to this place every time I'm in the neighborhood!! Sure it doesn't have the most chic interior deco, but the food is right. Also when u see your bill at the end of a meal, you will realize both ur tummy and ur wallet are happy. Their fried rice is really good and the chan pon is out of this world! Most of the ramen are truly delightful except one of the spicy ramen.. I cannot recall which one it was, but it didn't have much flavor. Overall, Men kui tei may be a small place, but it truly is a piece of Japan

It's a cute place to grab a quick lunch. It definitely looks like it belongs in the East Village, and I was hoping it'd be as good as some of the places down there. Unfortunately the ramen was really plain tasting and didn't satisfy my craving. Would've been great to have a yummy ramen place in the midtown area.

productivity did decline to some degree in the 1990s and that this decline was greater than one would expect even in years of low economic growth.
The natural question concerns why productivity declined in the 1990s and several experts have proposed answers. One possible cause is the misallocation of resources, or "unnatural selection"4; efficient firms exited while inefficient firms, or "zombies," remained with the help of government and the banks, which wanted to prevent bankruptcies. Peck, Levin, and Goto (1988) show that this has happened in the past.
Another popular explanation, held mostly by management theorists, business people, and policy makers, is the reduced technological capability of the Japanese firms.5 They contend that still-high R&D expenditures in the 1990s seem not to have produced the new products and processes that would have generated profits. The large market share once held by technology-intensive Japanese industries

NW20-25, neutral skin - light to medium skin, medium brown hair, dark eyes and quite pigmented lips. This is a plum coppery shade with a little gold shimmer..no not glitter chunks but shimmer. It is a beautiful shade, it is only slightly darker than natural lip tone, but its resignates such a beautiful copper more plum tone (not purple people plum). I find lip glass the least stick of all MAC lipgloss formulas, last ages and if you use a clear lipliner like that from the body shop(lip line fixer) or any other lip liner it will stop the gloss from running (it doesn't but some people over apply it). beautiful! usually lean towards lighter colours..

One of Mac's most spot-on products for me. I was looking for a lip-gloss similar to my lip color but a tad more noticeable, if you know what I mean. This is an amazing plummy/rosy/brown shade with just a hint of golden shimmer in it. It's only slightly darker than my natural lip color, which makes for an amazing neutral every day color - I used it for an entire academic year straight and I'm still half way through the tube since a small amount of it goes a long way, unlike most of Mac's lip-glasses or any other lip-gloss I've tried in general. Lately I've been trying different every day looks, but I still love it over pale lipsticks such as Creme d'Nude, because it tones down the paleness while adding a bit of plummy/ashy sophistication to the look. Adore!

Great color payoff on my NC 35 skin. My lighter friend always wants to wear it when we go out, so it's a constant in my bag. It's a beautiful neutral color that would look good on a variety of skintones.

Love Love Loveeeeeee....this gloss! I was at the MAC counter in need of a different lipgloss. I tend to go after nude lippies and such, but I saw this and had to try it. I am amazed! I am a NC 40 skintone and its so pretty on me. I can literally wear this year round. Highly recommend...will repurchase!

Until today, I've always preferred MAC's lipsticks over the lipglass.
Welll, Lovechild was included in my the Miss Violet Look in a Box , and I am in LOVE! This is a perfect, subtle, all occasion lipglass with a nice color payoff, good for everyday use alone or in conjunction with a lipstick.
Great with my NC42 skin! I'm sure that I'll empty this one. The only other MAC lippie that I used to the end was "O".

A great wearable plum shade for my skin tone (NC 42). I love the little golden sparkles. I probably would not repurchase as it is not HG status for me and I would like to try new products.

This is nasty stuff. It smells like artificial candy and is SUPER sticky. It's like having glue on your lips! After about a year or so it went rancid. I'm never buying a lipglass from mac again, so pricey and makes my lips feel disgusting. Tastes bad too!

This is just average and not suited to my NC25 skintone. I have light-med coloured lips and this was way too dark. It made me look dull and I have to white out my lips with concealer beforehand. Pink Lemonade is a much better choice. Doesnt stay long, a bit sticky, average MAC quality. There is nothing special about this and can be found for much cheaper. I dont understand what the hype is about. Clinique glosses are much better in terms of lasting power and moisture qualities and is still my preference. This is much thicker than NARS glosses so doesnt rub off as easily but then again, the colour range just dont work as well as NARS.

I love how Lovechild instantly brightens up my face. It gives my Asian NC35 skintone a very healthy glowy look. I originally went into MAC to buy either Nymphette, Florabundance, or Prr. I would have never expected to like this color since it was much darker in the tube than the colors I had originally wanted to purchase. On my lips, it did not turn out as dark as I had thought it would or what it looked like from the tube. I decided to try it on anyway and it was love at first swipe! Not too bright, not too dark. Almost reminds me of a rosy, shimmer version of Lust. I would describe the color as a medium rose pink with a slight golden shimmer. I find this more rose than plum. This is definitely one of MAC's more pigmented lipglasses and gives a MLBB look on my pigmented lips. I like that I don't have to put anything underneath it and I don't get that nasty milky line that MAC's lighter lipglasses (Underage) usually give me. Lovechild is a must-have for golden or tan skintones. It's a really sophisticated shade that makes me look instantly pulled together, I love it!

text: Diablo III's Demon Hunter revealed at Blizzcon Gaming 25 October 10 by Mark Brown Blizzard This weekend, night elves and space marines alike descended upon Anaheim, California to share their love of all things Warcraft, StarCraft and Diablo. The event was Blizzcon, an annual celebration held by PC developer Blizzard, with news, live music and playable games.While World of Warcraft and the recently-released Starcraft II got some attention, upcoming action RPG Diablo III was undoubtedly the star of the show. Blizzard revealed the game's final playable class, took the wraps off the multiplayer mode and hinted a potential beta.Diablo III players will be able to don the hood and armour of the Demon Hunter, the fifth and final class in the game after the wizard, witch doctor, monk and barbarian. She looks pretty deadly, with an arsenal of dangerous contraptions and thirst for vengeance against demons. You can also take the Demon Hunter, and her four buddies, into arena style deathmatch battles online.The game's lead designer, Jay Wilson, told G4 that the game will have a beta, but right now it's limited to "Blizzard friends and family". Still, with WoW and StarCraft, the developer has a long history of allowing open and inclusive betas before launch. Disappointingly, unlike StarCraft II, modding won't be officially supported by the game's tools, so any tinkering or fan made levels will require a touch of hacking to implement.Those hankering for the next StarCraft II expansion shouldn't hold their breath. Producer Chris Sigaty revealed that the Zerg-based sequel, Heart of the Swarm, will likely take until the end of 2011, if not later, to finish up. In the meantime, Blizzard wants to focus on Battle.net (the online service for multiplayer StarCraft) and issue smaller, incremental updates like featured replays and additional competitive ladders.Even further out is any reveal or mention of the company's next MMO. While World of Warcraft is the world's most popular massive online RPG, holding more than 62 percent of the subscription market with its mammoth 12 million subscribers, you won't see a new online game for at least a couple of years. The developer says 2012 is the earliest we'll hear about a new game.However, Blizzard is still releasing expansions for World of Warcraft. Cataclysm comes out December 7th, and for the first time, you'll be able to download it before it hits shops. A fourth pack is already planned and, according to the developer, is "pretty f'ing awesome". Edited by Duncan Geere Comments Latest on wired.co.uk

New audio equipment arrived, almost ready to record.
Im venturing into the world of digital audio/video drum recording. My goals are simple, I want to be able to put on a set of isolation headphones and listen to a nice mix of me and some high end drumless covers. My style of covers is old school, Who, Zeppelin, Stones and some Motown stuff. I also have some good friends that are sending me some original material they recorded with the drum tracks removed.
In terms of learning and improving, I want to be able to capture my playing on video and improve on my weaknesses. The mics I ordered came in and Im waiting for delivery on a Focusrite Scarlet 18i20. I was able to test the mics today using a friends Focusrite Saffire Pro40. Just based on the quick tutorial my friend offered I can see there is a lot to learn but It all sounded so good. Im excited about the entire process. Even bought a new Roc and Soc drum throne in anticipation of spending more time on the kit. lol At 51 I need to keep the tush comfy and the old throne doesn't do it anymore.
Im using DT770Ms for headphones; they did a nice job with isolation. I was amazed at how different it was playing through the Focusrite with the headphones on. Im going to be ordering a pair of Ultraphones this week to see which I like better. I would have done the Ultraphones first but I didnt have a Paypal account. So be it. Just wanted to share, Ive included a picture of the kit after I added the mics.

Calling all Spice Girls fans: It looks like a few demos from their last record to contain new material, 'Forever,' have leaked.
Could Little Mix be following in the footsteps of the Spice Girls and heading to the big screen a la 'Spice World'?
We've all been there before: you're blasting the car radio with the windows down, singing the lyrics to a song you've heard dozens of times, only to have your friend sitting next to you say, "Umm, those aren't the lyrics. Your lyrics don't even make sense!"
So which song lyrics are most commonly confused with alternate phrases? (Example: Elton John's "Hold me closer, tiny dancer" incorrectly confused as "Hold me closer, Tony Danza.") The UK's Telegraph reveals that a new British poll has set out to reveal which lyrics Brits are getting wrong.
Don't ever be embarrassed about fangirling over anything in life, because Emma Stone is the ultimate fangirl and her Spice Girls fangirldom likely trumps yours, at least 10 times over. Want proof? Check the actress out when she Facetimed with Sporty Spice aka Mel C.
Update: We hate to be the bearers of bad news, but it looks like this epic world tour was just to good to be true. According to MTV News, a rep for BSB stated that the BSB/Spice Girls world tour is a no-go. (We'll just be over here, crying into our '90s-era posters.)
It's like all of our '90s nostalgia was gearing up for this moment: the Backstreet Boys and the Spice Girls may be doing a reunion tour together! Brian Littrell of BSB was the one to allegedly reveal the Internet-breaking news himself.
Emma Stone is the Spice Girls' self-proclaimed No. 1 fan, so when she stopped by 2DayFM to promote her new film, 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2,' the hosts had a special surprise for the redheaded actress -- a message from Scary Spice herself!
Over the years like many of you I've had my celebrity crushes. Right now I'm all about Katy Perry as you may have seen or heard. Other celebrity crushes include, Drew Barrymore and Zooey Deschanel. When I was younger, I had a thing for Molly Ringwald, Jennie Garth (Kelly Taylor on 90210) and Emma Bunton. Who is Emma Bunton you ask?
Fifth Harmony paid tribute to another legendary girl group for Halloween: the Spice Girls!
Victoria Beckham, long-rumored to be the hindrance to a full-fledged Spice Girls reunion due to her other commitments (such as her burgeoning fashion line and her four children), is leggy and stunning in black and white images from her ELLE France cover shoot. Posh, who was shot for these images over the summer, poses with Chanel's Karl Lagerfeld and in Coco Chanel's onetime home. High fashion meets pop art in one fell swoop.
