When a dumpster permit is necessary
A dumpster permit, sometimes called a "temporary occupancy permit," is required in cases where the dumpster is to be placed in the public right-of-way. This includes placing the container on the side of a city street or blocking the sidewalk.
If the debris box will be placed in the driveway or on your private property, a permit is typically not needed. Check with your dumpster rental provider to be sure all permitting requirements are met.
Tips to reduce the total weight of the load
The weight of debris inside a dumpster can add up quickly, especially when loading dense debris like dirt, concrete or roofing shingles. Here are two tips that can help minimize the weight of a load:
- Tarp the dumpster when not in use, otherwise rainwater can drench the load and add a significant amount of weight. It's possible you could end up paying overage fees if this puts you over the dumpster's weight allowance.
- Some junk or debris may be valuable to others, such as salvaged bricks, working appliances, or reclaimed wood. Leave these things out of the dumpster and instead, place an ad on Craigslist to offload it for free.
Always be aware of the weight allowance on your dumpster, and discuss this in detail with your dumpster provider if you plan to load dense debris, such as cement or masonry.

I plan on making a trip down to corned beef row soon, and I'm looking for the best of the 3 delis down there, specifically for a Reuben Sandwich.
From other reviews on the internet, each place (Attman's, Weiss, and Lenny's) have their own share of fans. From a quick evaluation, it looks like Weiss is getting the best reviews. Attman's has been a long-standing favorite, but has gotten some not so nice reviews as of late. Lenny's gets good reviews, but more for the niceness of the building itself, rather than the food.
So what I'm looking for is A) Quality B) most generous portions and C) price. This is for carryout - I don't intend on eating at the establishment, so dining areas don't matter to me.
What say you, Baltimore? Which deli should be my first venture into Corned Beef Row?

Cardinal Sin has died
Cardinal Jaime Sin Archbishop emeritus of Manila died in Manila during the night of 20 June at the age of 76 after a long illness. He was suffering from diabetes and kidney failure for which he was under dialysis. The late Cardinal's secretary Rev Jun Sescon said his health took a downhill turn following the death of Pope John Paul II. "He was deeply saddened by the ! Holy Father's death", the secretary said recalling that Cardinal Sin was too ill to travel to Rome for the funeral or to take part in the conclave for the election of the new Pope. However on that occasion he was kind enough to speak to Fides on the telephone and said: "Benedict XVI is a brilliant and good man and he belongs to the same tradition as John Paul II." Cardinal Sin retired from active pastoral ministry in November 2003 but remained a figure of reference for this Catholic country. "History will remember with sadness the day of the death of a great liberator of the people of the Philippines and a champion of God," said the President of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The Cardinal was an active supporter of the popular movements which led to the fall of two presidents, dictator Fernando Marcos in 1986 and president Joseph Estrada in 2001, in what were called 'Rosary Revolutions' because the people found in his words expressed in radio messages encouragement for peaceful protests without violence. President Arroyo who succeeded Estrada said: "He leaves us a legacy of freedom and justice forged with profound personal courage". Cardinal Sin saw clearly the Church's role in the country as a moral guide for the development of the nation and because of this conviction he was often criticised for interfering in political matters. He actively promoted respect for the Gospel values of peace and justice, encouraged transparency and denounced corruption and violence. Born in 1928 to a Chinese mother and Filipino father he was ordained a priest in 1954. After exercising his ministry in parishes in a mountainous region, in June 1957 he was appointed rector of St Pius X seminary. Pope Paul VI appointed him bishop of Jaro in 1967, Archbishop of Manila in 1974 and created him Cardinal on 24 May 1976. He was President of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines from 1977 to 1981. He welcomed Pope John Paul II to the Philippines on two apostolic visits 1981 and 1995. During the second visit for the 10th World Youth Day 15 January 1955 an estimated four million people gathered for Mass at Rizal Park in Manila. Hundreds of thousands are expected to attend the funeral as well as civil, religious and political personalities. The Cardinal will be buried in the crypt of Manila Cathedral. Source: Fides

Come with us to Haiti.
Haiti is considered the Western Hemisphere's poorest country. More than 90,000 children lack education, medical care, and nutrition. Worse still, many children have been orphaned.
Meet Olgens and Easlan. "We live here," says Olgens. "This is Haiti. We will show you."
Observe the unspoiled landscapes and the busy market where locals barter in tiny stalls for daily needs, transporting brightly woven baskets on their heads. Visit the school in Tityanen where at least 40 students squeeze into a classroom lacking books or technology.
"We had a big earthquake. There were more people before the earthquake." —Easlan
Olgens and Easlan live in Bercy. They occupy a tiny tent and fill their stomachs with mud cookies to stave off the hunger pains. Bercy's only hospital was closed after the last earthquake. It now stands as a shell of what once existed.
Olgens and Easlan represent God's goodness. The children of Haiti are resilient–even amid the devastation. They have many of the same hopes and dreams of kids who can afford them. Olgens wants to be an engineer and Easlan wants to become a doctor.
Plans for OpenArms Haiti
God has graciously opened the door for Lifesong OpenArms Bercy Campus. It's hard not to get excited when listening to directors Mike and Amy Rivas talk about the farm, the soccer field, Student Life Center, and school. It's nearly impossible not to feel their joy over the family-style housing intended to put loving parents back into the lives of children in need.
Olgens and Easlan–along with thousands of children in Haiti–have suffered deep loss that can never be undone, but the last chapters have yet to be written. We believe YOU can be part of their story.
For now, the power tools are buzzing and the cement is being poured. And God's people are praying–making requests on behalf of this project and these children. By God's grace Olgens and Easlan–and dozens of their friends–will soon receive more food, education, medical care, and love.
Join Us on a Vision Team
We are planning our 2017 Vision Teams to introduce faithful supporters to what God is doing at OpenArms Haiti as well as other projects around the world. Click here to see dates of travel. Our goal is to allow small teams to see first-hand the schools, children's homes, sustainable business projects, and local villages.
God is faithful, and we look forward to seeing how He will continue to bless the people of Haiti!

I knew Lady Gaga had some West Virginia roots — she even gave the state a plug in her song "Born This Way" — but until today I didn't know her Mom was a West Virginia University cheerleader.
That bit of history popped into my Facebook feed yesterday in the form of a picture of Mother Gaga in WVU cheerleading garb, and Lady Gaga herself confirmed it today by sharing the photo on Instagram. The family resemblance is obvious.

Steven Tyler's claim to fame is singing and screaming for the rock band Aerosmith. But now the dude who looks like a lady is singing country music.

Somewhere within my heart is a song about adoption looking for a voice. I have a title for it that comes from the last paragraph of our adoption story and even drafted some lyrics several years ago.
But I've never been able to finish the song. I guess I'm a writer but not a songwriter.
John Waller, on the other hand, is a songwriter. And he tells an inspiring adoption story in "Orphan," a song about a little girl's quest for her "forever home."
The song is even more powerful when you realize that little girl at the beginning and end of the video is Waller's adopted daughter, and the people who play the parents are his sister and brother-in-law.
I hope someday I can find the words to pen our adoption story in lyrics, but for now, I'll just listen to John Waller's and appreciate all of the parents and children who found each other through adoption. "Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world" (James 1:27).

My wife and I have never been interested in braving the crazy masses to Christmas shop on Black Friday, and we're even less inclined to join the insanity now that "Black Friday" actually begins a day early, on Thanksgiving Day. We'd rather enjoy the evening with family than waste it on conspicuous consumption for a holiday that has become far too commercialized.
But this year a confluence of events convinced my wife to go shopping on Thanksgiving night: 1) Our son really wanted Beats headphones; 2) God blessed our new communications business with a surplus of work and income, so we could afford to splurge on the children; and 3) Walmart had a great deal on headphones for anyone who shopped that night.
Many people who shop on the wildest day of the year can't get the gifts they want because they fly off the shelves. Walmart didn't have any Beats headphones by the time she trekked to the Walmart nearest to my parents' house in West Virginia.
But as promised because she shopped during the allotted time, Walmart gave her a rain check and promised to deliver the headphones to our local store in the Washington, D.C., area between Dec. 14 and Dec. 22. One big item off the shopping list early, right?
Wrong. We started getting antsy about Walmart's ability to deliver on time midway between the two promised dates. Then on Dec. 21 we received this email: "Your Walmart.com order is almost ready for pickup. … You'll receive a separate email when your item is ready for pickup. We will also be emailing you a $10 eGift Card for any inconvenience that may occur if your item does not arrive" on time.
Less than 24 hours later we learned that "almost ready" in Wally World doesn't mean "sometime in the next three days before you have to wrap the gift and leave town for Christmas." We received that $20 gift card but not the gift that our son wanted most this year. Thanks for nothing, Walmart!
Thankfully this Christmas story has a happy ending. We're regular customers of Best Buy, and they sent an email the morning of Dec. 22 advertising a one-day special on select Beats headphones. Even better, they cost $15 less than what we paid for a rain check that Walmart couldn't manage to fill in three weeks' time.
Our son got his headphones; we got a gift certificate that we'll use at Walmart the day we go to get a refund on the headphones that were never delivered; and we learned never to shop at Walmart on Black Friday. There are better ways to fill the emptiness underneath our Christmas tree.

This morning as my Facebook feed filled with the news that country music legend George Jones had died at age 81, my mind drifted to his 1993 hit song "High-Tech Redneck." I am one, so the song is perfect fodder for this blog as a tribute to Jones. But as you watch the video and listen to the lyrics, think about how outdated the high-tech redneck of 1993 is today:
Did you catch the size of the headphones on the dog in that video and the cell phone that Jones pulls out at the end? What about the talk of VCRs, cassette tapes and CB radios? Or the reference to a "plugged in" bumpkin? Any redneck celebrating those "advances" today most definitely would fall into the bumpkin category!

Back in 1997, President Bill Clinton tried to cement his legacy as America's "first black president" by initiating a national "conversation about race." The conversation didn't last long — or yield much.
More than a decade later in a speech during Black History Month, Attorney General Eric Holder called America "nation of cowards" when it comes to discussing race. And a few weeks ago when a Philadelphia newspaper ran a piece on "Being White in Philly," Mayor Michael Nutter responded by calling for a formal rebuke of the paper.
This is what happens when political and media elites try to shape public opinion. Maybe it's time to give a redneck and a rap star a voice in the conversation.
Country boy Brad Paisley, who was born and raised about 40 minutes up the Ohio River from my hometown, and rapper LL Cool J certainly want to be heard. They're trying to bring enlightenment to the race debate through the lyrics of Paisley's new song, "Accidental Racist," which approaches the subject from the perspective of a white Southerner wearing a Confederate flag and black man in a do-rag.
Here's a snippet from Paisley's part in the duet:
And here's LL Cool J's take on the current state of racial affairs:

The melting of the arctic sea ice really stopped a few days ago when the temperatures began dipping into freezing closer to the arctic circle (66N); that far south they have been enjoying several hours of night for each spin of the earth for a couple months now, and they will not know a 24-hour night till December.
|Cool chart from Wikipedia
I have written about this year's record sea-ice melt before, and it looks like the final record will be set at 3.4 million square kilometers. This is a big (or perhaps I should say small) number in a number of ways.
First, this represents an ice-pack that is just a hair over half the mean 1979-2000 ice pack size. I think that when we hit that halfway mark everyone who does not own a bicycle immediately gets a gold star to put on the bumper of their SUV.
Secondly there is supposed to be some type of major weather effect. The extra energy is supposed to force the jet stream into some sort of apocalyptic undulation that will intermittently bring shockingly cold air into southern latitudes. I don't really know about this one, and by "don't really know" I mean that and not "I really do know but I am skeptical". It makes sense that having something unprecedented happen on a global scale should have some sort of global effect. I anticipate this winter will be one big event where statistics are collected and compared; kinda like baseball only more exciting, and without the player strikes.
I've often pictured the arctic sea ice as a giant white sheet. This image is incorrect for much of the year. I expect that it will be closer to the truth after the first thousand hours of night, but right now it is not. I was recently reading the blog of Julienne Stroeve who is riding through the arctic ice on the Arctic Sunrise (A Geenpeace ship). At almost 83N she was traveling through water that was 60% free of ice.
Instead of a featureless white icefield the arctic sea ice is a fractal-patterned slush. Floes of varying sizes bump and grind until the swiftly approaching darkness will stitch them back together.
Nearer the tip of the globe (The North pole –not the magnetic north pole, but the northernmost point on the globe- is at 90N) some of the ice floes are large enough to appear continuous.
On Friday 20 April 2012 Jamie Morison, principal investigator for the North Pole Environmental Observatory, called out on his Iridium phone to announce that the first of two polar webcams were deployed. Here is a picture from that webcam showing the Arctic sunset.
|Camera 1 http://www.arctic.noaa.gov/np2012/2012-cam1.mov
The next day, Saturday 21 April 2012, Matvei Shparo and Boris Smolin arrived at the Noth pole with their group of seven kids ages 15 to 18. They had skied there. It was the fifth ski trip for Shparo and Smolin, who had been the first to ski to the North Pole under their own power in 2007; they began on 22 December 2007, and arrived at the North Pole on 14 March 2008. The 2007-2008 trip covered over 1000km. The 2012 trip with the kids was considerably shorter.
On Sunday 22 April 2012 Jamie called up to announce that camera #2 was deployed, and it is transmitting better pictures right now.

And the arctic Webcams will go dark.

Interview with author, James Morris
Happy Friday, yall! Hope you all had a great week and are ready to kick off this weekend! It has been another super busy week here at home wearewordnerds headquarters, that's for sure! Cataloging new books, photography, and some general organization have been keeping me so busy. And then, of course, life has a way of conveniantly sending Mr Murphy over, just when you are busiest, to throw a wrench into the plans. REGARDLESS! One of the things I wanted to start doing a little more of was AUTHOR INTERVIEWS, so that's what we have for you today! A few weeks back we featured the book What Lies Within by James Morris and he was kind enough to answer a few questions for us.
On to the show! (I mean interview….)
Interview with author, James Morris
I saw in your bio that you used to write for television, was that a lot different than writing novels?
Writing teleplays and novels is very different; a script is really just a blueprint, and it requires a team of people to make it come alive: actors, sets, camera operators, costumes, music, editors. It really is a team effort. Scripts also generally only show what the character can see and hear, rather than interior thoughts (voice-overs are the exception). And there is generally a lot of input into scripts from other writers, the network, the studio, actors, so it's hard to have complete "ownership" of an episode. Novels, on the other hand, have to be done with words and that's it. It's both freeing (no budget limitations for novels!), but it's harder to convey a mood sometimes, when it would be easier just to see the reaction of an actor's face. Both have their pros & cons. I love them both, actually. The other big difference in TV versus books is the amount of reach; TV episodes, even low-rated ones, still garner in the hundreds of thousands, if not low millions, of views on one night. Books, even in a best case scenario like a massive bestseller, are lucky to reach 2 million worldwide, and that's after months of the book percolating.
What genre do you usually write? Do you ever see yourself writing other genres?
I tend to write more "thriller-y" stories, things with a faster pace. But I do write in other genres. I have a women's fiction book in the works that's a relationship comedy. I think the idea of writing in only one genre is mainly a marketing idea; it's easier for people to know, oh, that's a Stephen King book, I know exactly what I'm going to get when I open those pages. It's the writer as a brand, which isn't a bad thing. But I do like to explore outside my own preferred genre. It's what makes writing fun and interesting: exploring different ideas, different 'what ifs' and seeing where they lead.
Tell us about WHAT LIES WITHIN! What's it about, where'd the idea for it come from?
WHAT LIES WITHIN tells the story of a 17-year-old girl who finds with one text message that her life is in danger, and she doesn't know why. She goes on a journey to explore who wants her dead, and it turns her life upside-down. I can't really point to a certain 'eureka' moment, but I'd always been curious in the last ten years or so: why the proliferation of violence among young people? In my mind, it seems as if there is a Before Columbine high school shooting and an After Columbine moment, and it's never been the same. To paraphrase a quote from INCEPTION, the scariest thing in the world is an idea, because once an idea is acted upon, it proves that it can be done. It's not just an idea anymore, it's become real. And once something is out in the world, you can't put the genie back in the bottle, you know?
Is there a message in your novel that you hope your readers come away with?
I'm not much of a "message guy"; I think people read for entertainment, and I aim to give them their money's worth. Of course, there is always a theme that I personally am working on, and maybe Easter Eggs laid in for readers who want to do a deep-dive. But I like to think of John Greene's statement that books belong to the reader, not the author. I do my best, and then when a book hits the world, it doesn't belong to me anymore. It's yours, the reader, for good or bad. The reader brings their own individual experience to the book, and interestingly, their reaction to the book is more a reflection of their thoughts/experiences.
What was the hardest part of writing WHAT LIES WITHIN?
The hardest part of writing WHAT LIES WITHIN is the same with any project, I find: is it something that will still interest me days, weeks, months, or even years later? It's so easy to get excited by an idea, but does the idea have "legs" where on Day 203 I still feel like sitting down at the computer and writing it out? Does the concept excite me enough to keep going? And to make sure that doesn't happen, I spend most of my time just noodling an idea, going over it again and again; then I outline and outline again. So when I actually start writing, the writing process itself is pretty quick. And then there are the more scene-work questions: am I telling the story in the right order? Am I giving away too much or not enough? Is the pace right? Am I making the characters real without being boring? Are they likable? Are they flawed enough that the audience relates to them, but not flawed enough that the reader is repelled? All those questions. A writing instructor once told me that writing is just the act of answering questions over and over. The instructor was kind of right!
What was the hardest part of getting published?
I am no different than most writers when they focus on getting published. But the fact is, the manuscript is the most important thing. It needs to be right. Because once it's out the door and out in the world, there's no taking it back. The reviews come in, and these days reviewers don't hold back. They tell you what they love, which makes you feel good, and they tell you what they hate, which makes you feel not so good. So the marker shouldn't be: how to get published; the marker should be: is this manuscript as good as I can make it? Having said that, publishing, like network TV, is filled with smart people, passionate people who love storytelling. But at the end of the day, they are all guessing as to what is going to make money; what is going to make a splash in the marketplace. And no one really knows. If they did, every TV show would be a hit. If they did, every book would be a smash. So, you need to remind yourself it's all a crapshoot. People put their best guess into your work (and sometimes you get chosen, but more often you get passed on). It can be frustrating, but remember: it's not personal. For every book they say yes to, they say no to a hundred others; they simply don't have the bandwidth to pick every book they like.
Are you a "timeline it all out" kind of guy or do you just start writing and see what happens? What's your process like?
Coming from screenwriting, I definitely need an outline. Personally, I've found the "let me go with inspiration and see where it leads" takes me exactly nowhere. I need the outline because then I know the story works; there's comfort in having those borders to bounce around within, which then allows me the freedom to "see where the inspiration" takes me on the scene-level.
Was it a hard change for you to switch from writing for tv which is primarily dialog (script writing) to writing in the novel format?
Yes, actually. So much on screen is conveyed with a look, or a musical cue, or an editing choice. Prose writing is still something I continue to learn about, and I like to think with each book I write, the writing itself gets a little better and better. But I will continue to learn forever!
Do you have any advice for other writers?
I jokingly tell other writers to quit. I don't really mean it, but it's just a way of saying: this career is ridiculous. I say over and over again, unless you're JK Rowling during the height of HARRY POTTER that no one is waiting with bated breath about your next book. Face it, most books don't sell much. This isn't a business in which you generally make any money. You write for only one reason: because you love it. Because you can't not write. If you're writing for any other reason, you're in it for the wrong reasons. Because the writing life is filled with rejection and hurt. Why put yourself through it unless you love the act of telling stories?
What are you working on now / whats next for you?
Right now, I'm working on a YA horror. And yes, each book has its own narrative riddles that I need to solve, and I am very much in "trying-to-solve" mode!
Who is your favorite author & what do you think draws you to their work?
I always say Ray Bradbury because when I was introduced to him as a young teen, it was the first time I saw that words had power; they were magic on the page. He could weave a story, just creating this experience you could feel. Of course, there have been many other writers since then that I've enjoyed and inspired me, but Ray Bradbury will always reign as king.
Any books you think were awesome and surprised they aren't best sellers? Why aren't they? We hate seeing books that just didn't get enough buzz!
Too many! It's true the ones we all hear about get the most amount of marketing (and then sometimes disappoint). I've actually been inspired of course, by Andy Weir's story about THE MARTIAN (though, personally, as someone who never understood math, it was a bit math-heavy for me); and Josh Malerman's BIRD BOX. That one came out in early 2014, and yet, we're closing in on late 2015, and it's really popping. And when it came out, I don't remember it having a big splash; it percolated and found an audience and just kept going. I think those are the stories that every writer thinks of when they publish their books – the hope that those seeds will grow into large trees!
And because our readers would LOVE to know: What book are YOU reading right now?
I am currently reading READY PLAYER ONE. I read across a wide variety of genres, but I do like to see what's currently "popping."

Asia's Pain Resulted In World-Wide Distress
A safe bet was hard to find in international stock markets last year.
Investors who put their chips on Europe, where markets anticipated economic and monetary union, probably stayed ahead. But those who bet on Russia, Brazil or many other emerging markets learned costly lessons about devaluation and contagion.
It was "a year when contagion and fear took hold; if you were in emerging markets, it was bad," says Leila...

Boustany introduces HIT delay bill - Extenders headed for another lapse - Brewing up a tax break
By Kelsey Snell
BREAKING: WHITE HOUSE MAY BE FLEXIBLE ON REVENUE. "White House Hints at Flexibility on Taxes: Damian Paletta, Janet Hook, and Carol E. Lee: "The White House has cracked open the door to a budget compromise with congressional Republicans … [A] House-Senate committee begins negotiations [today] on a plan to fund the government for the rest of the current fiscal year. … At [an Obama] meeting [with Senate Republicans] earlier this month, … Sen. Bob Corker (R., Tenn.) asked whether Mr. Obama would be willing to accept a budget deal without new revenues, one that instead includes some cuts to entitlement programs that the president had previously endorsed.
Story Continued Below
"Officials at the meeting said Mr. Obama was open to that approach if it came in a very narrow deal to replace part of the sequester cuts, though he acknowledged that congressional Democrats might not agree. White House officials are expected to reject any cuts to entitlement benefits in a deal that doesn't raise revenue … But the White House has been more willing to consider cuts in other entitlement programs — such as agriculture subsidies — … as a swap for easing the sequester cuts." http://goo.gl/YB3BAq (h/t Playbook)
BOUSTANY INTRODUCES HIT DELAY BILL. Reps. Charles Boustany, (R-La.) and Ami Bera, (D-Calif.), introduced a bill to delay the small business health insurance tax included in the Affordable Care Act. Small business advocates are cheering at the latest attempt at delaying a piece of the law but it is unclear where the legislation is headed.
Advocacy group Stop the HIT estimates that the tax would hit about 34 million Americans and raise premiums on small business insurance plans. They estimate that tax will raise $8 billion starting in 2014, $14.3 billion in 2018. The Boustany bill would delay the tax for 2 years.
"Employers purchasing fully insured coverage, in addition to individuals who purchase coverage on their own, will face higher premiums due to this tax," Boustany said in a statement. "Delaying this tax will reduce the financial burden on families, small businesses, and seniors when they purchase coverage."
The bill landed quietly on Tuesday but there's a chance that Republicans will seize on the delay as the cause du jour in the quest to delay some of the more onerous parts of the law.
EXTENDERS HEADED FOR ANOTHER LAPSE. Anyone who watches taxes in Washington knows that holiday season is supposed to be extenders season. Every year a bevy of breaks and benefits take their turn in the spotlight in the weeks, days and hours before they are set to expire. Usually they get tacked on to some kind of must-pass legislation. I've got a story on Pro today looking at how tax reform is poised to be the big foot edging them out of the spotlight.
"Members of the Senate Finance and House Ways and Means Committees expect to spend all of their remaining time this year working on drafting comprehensive tax reform legislation. The extenders package would be a distraction from that work, they say."
The basic argument is that tax reform is the only way to fix the patchwork problem that creates the annual extenders crisis.
"The committee first began an exhaustive review of extenders last Congress and intends to conclude that review as it undertakes and moves this year to fix our broken tax code," said committee spokeswoman Michelle Dimarob in an email to POLITICO. "That action is meant to inject the permanency and certainty into the code that is needed so job creators can better plan for the future, rather than planning around some arbitrary expiration date of a particular tax policy."

BREWING UP A TAX BREAK. Here in D.C. we have many venerable institutions but the one that ranks the highest among city natives may just be the happy hour. Our very own Lauren French has a story today on how brewers are lobbying for tax reform to help keep the tab low.
"For the beer and cider industries — and yes, there are separate lobbyists for cider — a tax code overhaul might finally be the vehicle to address some of their gripes with the tax code," French writes. "Lobbyists for the wine and liquor sectors, meanwhile, worry that Democrats will try to boost excises taxes to raise revenue if the House Ways and Means and Senate Finance committees move forward with tax reform."
"The last thing we need is another hit on our industry as the economy is getting its footing after the past few years," said John Bodnovich, the executive director of American Beverage Licensees, which advocates for the entire industry.

FIRST IN MORNING TAX: NEW PAPER FROM CRFB. The team at the Center for a Responsible Federal budget is releasing a new paper in honor of the first meeting of the budget conference committee. They call on the conferees "to forge an agreement not only on this year's spending levels but also on a long term solution for the debt."
The paper posted overnight, go be one of the first to check out the new work: http://bit.ly/HufN4t
TIME FOR LOW EXPECTATIONS? There's a lot of talk in Washington about what the budget conference committee should think about and what they ideally could be doing but the question is, what can they actually get done? POLITICO's own Ginger Gibson reports that the answer to that question comes with a lot of pessimism and low expectations.
"Don't expect the budget negotiating committee convening on Capitol Hill on Wednesday to arrive at any sweeping resolution that tackles long-term government spending, entitlement programs or the tax code," Gibson writes. "If anything happens — which is highly uncertain — it will be because members of the negotiating panel want to go small and avoid the pitfalls that have left Washington gridlocked for several years by trying to tackle all of the problems at once."

A NEW LOOK AT CORPORATE TAXES. There is a new post up on the Economix blog at The New York Times featuring analysis from Bruce Bartlett, a respected economist and former staffer to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush. Bartlett breaks down how tinkering around inside of the corporate tax code may be making it less fair and efficient.
"For many years, economists assumed that the corporate tax is paid almost entirely by shareholders," Bartlett writes. "This is unquestionably true when a corporate income tax is first introduced. But over time, corporations adjust their affairs so as to minimize the tax, causing the burden to be shifted. For example, companies may try to raise prices to compensate for the corporate income tax, thus shifting some of the burden onto consumers."
Bartlett argues that it will be difficult to cut the corporate tax rate by eliminating breaks and loopholes without hurting low income individuals.

I did something I have never done before: I pre-ordered a book. Those of you who know me or have been interacting with me through Two Friars and a Fool for a while probably won't be surprised that it was a Peter Rollins book, and here it is: The Idolatry of God.
Let's get the easy stuff out of the way. It is a good book, well worth your money to buy and your time to read. It is certainly on a level with Insurrection, it surpasses the Fidelity of Betrayal and How (Not) to Speak of God in terms of clarity and power. The Orthodox Heretic remains my favorite of his works because Rollins is at his best when he is telling stories, but this new book is his most systematic and holistic explanation of his project to date. Reading this will help you make sense of everything else Rollins has talked about. If you're new to his work I would start with OH, then Idolatry of God, then Insurrection, then the others.
In essence, the Idolatry of God is a complete telling of the Gospel. Rollins called it his stab at Christology on Twitter. He begins with an anthropology heavily informed by the french psychologist Jacques Lacan, wherein he describes the human condition as being one of perpetual grasping for satisfaction and certainty due to a perception of loss in the core of our self-awareness. This gap is created when we are born into self-awareness, a transition occurring in infancy which has the effect of creating a feeling of estrangement from our environment. We feel like we lost something we previously possessed now that we perceive the gap between ourselves and the objects of our need and desire.
This loss isn't real, of course, because we didn't exist prior to that awakening (what Lacan calls the Mirror Phase). So in a real sense what we've lost is nothing. There is a void in our center which we continually try to fill with ever-more sophisticated objects of desire money, success, power, lovers, and even God. This void is what Rollins identifies as Original Sin, and the object of our obsession is what Rollins calls an Idol.
Jesus, he argues, helps us to overcome Original Sin, not by offering yet another Idol for us to pursue and ultimately be disappointed by, but by exposing the absolute emptiness of our drive for satisfaction in the first place. His cry of dereliction places at the heart of the Christian Faith the experience of the absence of God. Salvation isn't the thing which finally plugs that hole it is letting go of the need to be whole in the first place. It is turning into our brokenness and embracing the world.
There is more in his analysis, he has a place for the Law in the creation of Idols, a wonderful exposition of the problem of tribal identities and what he calls the Paulinian Cut which undermines them, and some great use of film and pop-culture examples to illustrate his point, but I don't want to spoil everything.
This is powerful stuff. For a long time progressive Christians have been welcoming doubt and decrying certainty, but here for the first time, I think, someone cohesively shows that doubt isn't merely an inevitable or acceptable part of faith, but the essence of it. What is especially delightful is that Rollins does this using classic theological language. He employs it very differently, almost diametrically opposed to how it has sometimes been used, but he does it artfully and, in my opinion, it holds up.
Where I feel his book, and his argument could be strengthened is by engaging with some quantitative study of the theories behind his anthropology. Lacan has been around a while and his claims about human psychology are testable. A major question lingering for me in reading this is whether Lacan is right about the Mirror Phase or whether early child development works somewhat differently. Rollins is a philosopher and he sometimes seems resistant to having his claims tested, relying solely on the beauty and coherence of his ideas. Maybe this is where someone like Richard Beck could help him match his ideas not just with art and anecdotal evidence, but with empirical observation as well.
I'm also surprised not to find clearer links in his work with Girardian theory. There is so much overlap here it is astonishing (he even has a section subtitled "The sacrifice of sacrifice itself") but if he has been influenced by Rene Girard or any of his devotees he doesn't mention them in the acknowledgements and he is silent about key aspects of Girardian thought (like the mimetic nature of desire) where they seem like a natural fit.
A final area of fruitful cross-pollination that seems a natural partner for his work is Buddhism. The role of desire in creating suffering, the emptiness of our self, and the turn away from certainty and satisfaction all seem ripe for comparison with Buddhist dharma.
I guess what I'm saying is, there are a lot more books I would like Peter Rollins to write so I can pre-order them.

It depends how busy they are. Some midwives book up fast and will only take on so many women around the same due date. I don't actually see my midwife for prenatal care (I see my OB for that because my midwife is 3 hours away) - however, I do "book" her right away. She's semi-retired and only takes on one birth per month, so I have get in fast if I want to claim her for the month I am due!
You may not need to start your prenatal care just yet, but I would definitely start conversing with the midwives you are considering. Ask them if they have a set number of women per month that they are willing to take on, and how many have they committed to already for your birth month.

Kayle Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
[READ THIS FIRST] Introduction Part 1 - If it's so OP, why hasn't anyone
First, let me explain why no one tries max Gold per 10.
First and foremost, getting max gold per 10 means your laning phase is going to be on the defensive mostly if your opponent doesn't mess up. A lot of people don't like this so they immediately give up on this.
"Oh, like you can totally just ditch the dumb gold per 10 thing if you farm well because you can then play offensive and make plays and stuff, like this build is stupid."
Best phrase to describe LeaguI:
Sooner or later, you or your team is going to get into a situation where sh*t happens and somehow the enemy is got super lucky and got a kill from outside your lane with little to no effort. It happens to pros during lvl 1 invades, it happens with noobs with scrub skills.
Point is IT HAPPENS.
And when it happens, you can't do much about it if the enemy is being careful to keep their lead and keep up their farm with yours.
That's why I play gold per 10, to keep up my end game control over the game. I've had many oppnents keep up with me in farm but I still get the advantage just purely from the sheer amount of gold I've generated. For reference, I average about 20k gold in about 30 minutes on good games, 16-17k gold in 30 minutes on bad games.
Playing gold per 10 Kayle is going into a fight knowing fully well that you may not win the lane. THIS IS WHAT SETS THIS GUIDE APART FROM OTHERS The other guides tell you what to do expecting you to not be at a disadvantage after laning phase. This guide anticipates that you will come out of laning phase at a disadvantage. How badly of a
disadvantage and how quickly you can recover depends on your skill with Kayle.
In addition to that, the gold per 10 needs time to kick in to crazy OP mode. If you have 3 inhibitors down by 18 minutes and you still haven't reached to the needlessly large rod step in the item build listed above, you're pretty much screwed.
However, if you HAVE gotten to the needlessly large rod step for some crazy reason, you actually have a small chance.
And if you stall enough to get as far as the Runnan's hurricane, you DEFINITELY have a chance.
Not gonna lie, that's how OP this build is.
Since getting max gold per 10 means you are giving up early game power for late game power and farming back fast to make up for the gold they got zoned from and for the Gold per 10 items.
This blocks out the champions that fall off and the ones that have poor farming abilities out from this method.
The left over champions now must be able to make use of the stats from nearly every stat the gold per 10 items offer.
That's pretty hard, nearly no one has good farming abilities, scales well into late game, and can make use of both critical strike AND Ability Power.
No one except Kayle.
Date of entry:
Introduction Part 2 - Why Gold per 10?
The ability to become a game changing threat at 25-30 minutes NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS as long as you can flash farm your way back is insanely powerful.
In this aspect, Kayle resembles Tryndamere. Late game, Kayle loses to nearly no one 1v1.
Yup, not even to vayne... I mean, she might have a chance, depending on skill match up, but with your 3 second invincibility, you still kinda have an edge over her.
Kage's Lucky pickphilosopher's stoneMore importantly, Kayle can make use of everything offered with the gold per 10 items and masteries. She needs the health + mana regen for lane sustain, she can use the AP from kage's lucky pick, and avarice blade is a great farming tool on top of being able to build into statikk shiv for burst potential.
But by far the most important reason why to play gold per 10, is because Kayle does so well on AS and since AS comes across as cheap compared to big AP/AD items, she can reach end game even faster on gold per 10 items.
Plus since you already use one of the gold per 10 items as apart of your build (avarice blade->statikk shiv), you actually only need to hold on to your gold per 10 items for a total of about 4 minutes to catch up to a standard enemy AP carry build in terms of % build completion. Of course, if you hold onto the gold per 10 for longer than that, the items will be paying for more than that. :)
Date of entry:
Introduction Part 3 - What if I don't go with Gold per 10?
Well, you COULD always just abandon the gold per 10, but then you can't guarantee that you will hit the end game fast enough to make a difference.
The main risk with going max Gold per 10 sacrificing lane dominance to guarantee yourself a minimum amount of gold to work yourself out of a sticky situation that handsomely rewards you based on your own farming/defensive/stalling skills.
If you are skilled enough, you can even be rewarded with even more gold than the enemy for the same amount of effort.
NOT going gold per 10 means:
It means that you are putting entire faith into your solo queue team and your "teamwork" to work yourself out of a sticky situation that rewards "teamwork".
Oh and btw, the Enemy team ALSO gets rewarded the same amount as long as they have the same kind of "teamwork".

Playstyle Part 1 - AP Burst Kayle vs AS/AP Kayle
This is the main difference between my guide and other AP Kayle guides.
If you look closely at the other AP guides, they all focus on heavily on AP. Kayle built this way will do the same job as a standard AP carry: kill that one guy over there really hard.
There really is no big reason to choose Kayle over another AP carry other than her invincibility if Kayle is played this way. In a team fight, Kayle can at most burst 90% of two enemy's Hp bars. And maybe kill off a lingering third enemy.
Another issue I see with kayles all the time is them falling behind because they cant get any gold income to fuel their CDR needs.
So what if you have a lot of AP?
So what if you have 3 seconds of invincibility?
The most you can do with 3 seconds of invincibility is try to wait on a cooldown and make 3-4 auto attacks.
If your team is really far behind and all you can do is rely on a 8-5.5 second heavy nuke and an auto attack that's slow but kinda hurts, you are only going to kinda blow some winds in your team's favor, but not really much else if you get focused down.
In addition to being able to make MUCH more use of the ultimate, (3 seconds = 7-21 auto attacks ) the AS/AP build utilizes Kayle's most unique point: Her E (Rigjteous Fury)
Combined with nashor's tooth, kayle's autos have a total of 0.55 AP ratio on them.
Sound's easy, no?
So build more AP, right?
"Oh so you're saying build some AS, right?"
What I'm getting at is Kayle's AoE potential.
Listen up, Kayle's E is broken into two differnet parts, and not many people know that.
Part-1(treated as an onhit effect): Extends Kayle's range and grants onhit magic damage
Part-2(treated as a spell): magic damage with same amount of magic damage + % of Kayle's AD
Think about it.
Runaan's Hurricane:
+70% attack speed
UNIQUE PASSIVE: Your basic attacks fire minor bolts at 2 nearby targets, each dealing 10 + 50% of your attack damage and applying on-hit effects.
[Most Obvious Point] THERE'S A REASON WHY EACH BOLT IS ONLY 50% AD. 100% would make ADCs too OP.
However, Kayle's AP on hit AP ratios make her magic on hit damage deal just as much as an ADC's auto, AND IT'S NOT HALVED.
[Most Looked Over Point] So if BOTH Part-2 of Kayle's E AND JUST Runaan's Hurricane bolt hits an enemy, they get hit for 130 + 0.95 AP ratio + 0.9 AD ratio THAT'S FREAKING CRAZY FOR JUST AN AUTO ATTACK. Put that on 2.5 attack speed and it's not just, "I WANT TO KILL THAT GUY OVER THERE SO HARD." it's gonna be, "F*CK EVERYTHING IN THAT DIRECTION."
Statikk Shiv:
+40% attack speed
+20% critical strike chance
+6% movement speed
Unique Passive: Moving and attacking builds Static Charges. At 100 charges, your next attack expends the charges to deal 100 magic damage to up to 4 targets. This damage can critically strike.
Since this is your last item, you will have 2.5 attack speed when you get this item. Because Runaan's Hurricane will help you generate charges, this will fill in for the missing burst damage that you missed out by not getting pure AP.
If you hit 3 targets everytime you auto, You should be dealing the item's burst damage about every second. That's basically almost like giving your autos an AoE 100 damage per second.
Date of entry:
Playstyle Part 2 - Still not convinced about AP Burst Kayle vs AS/AP Kayle?
Ok, lets do a late game teamfight scenario:
AP Burst Kayle (Example guide taken from here) VS AS/AP Kayle
(with just items + Runes on Kayle and ignoring resistances/Lifesteal+etc, too much math otherwise)
AP Burst Kayle's damage:
Attack Speed: 1.23
Damage per auto: 575
Damage per additional target struck: 330
Damage over 5 seconds:
Damage from Q: 981
Damage from litchbane (assuming you blow 3 spells in 2 second intervals): 1,772
Attacks over 5 seconds: 6
Damage dealt over 5 seconds if only 1 target struck with Autos: 6,203
Additional damage over 5 seconds per additional target struck with autos: 1,980
Max damage over 10 seconds: 14,123
Damage over 10 seconds
Damage from Q(once every 4.8 seconds): 1,962
Damage from litchbane (assuming the unlikely case that you blow all your spells in 2 second intervals): 1,772
Attacks over 10 seconds: 12
Damage dealt over 10 seconds if only 1 target struck with Autos: 10,634
Additional damage over 10 seconds per additional target struck with autos: 3,960
Max damage over 10 seconds: 26,474
AS/AP Kayle's damage:
AD: 129 (25 bonus AD)
Attack Speed: 2.5
Damage per Auto(no crits): 403
Damage per Auto(no crits) when 2 enemies are struck: 978
Damage per Auto(no crits) when 3 enemies are struck: 1553
Additional damage dealt per auto per enemy struck above 3: 174
Damage over 5 seconds:
Damage from Q : 571
Statikk Shiv minimumal damage(no crits): 200
Statikk Shiv maximum damage(no crits): 1,600
Attacks over 5 seconds: 12
Damage dealt over 5 seconds if only 1 target struck with Autos(no crits): 5,607
Damage dealt over 5 seconds if 2 targets struck per Auto (no crits, not including Statikk Shiv damage): 12,307
Damage dealt over 5 seconds if 3 targets struck per Auto (no crits, not including Statikk Shiv damage): 19,207
Maximum damage over 5 seconds(no crits): 22,895
Damage over 10 seconds
Damage from Q (once every 4.8 seconds): 1,142
Statikk Shiv minimumal damage(no crits): 300
Statikk Shiv maximum damage(no crits): 3,200
Attacks over 10 seconds: 25
Damage dealt over 10 seconds if only 1 target struck with Autos(no crits): 11,517
Damage dealt over 10 seconds if 2 targets struck per Auto (no crits, not including Statikk Shiv damage): 25,592
Damage dealt over 10 seconds if 3 targets struck per Auto (no crits, not including Statikk Shiv damage): 39,967
Maximum damage over 10 seconds(no crits): 47,517
Over an average 5 second teamfight, a late game Burst AP Kayle is likely to deal approximately 8,000 damage to the enemy team before calculating resistances, and that is assuming that kayle gets a litchbane and times her spells exactly 2 seconds apart from each of each other which is highly unlikely as her Q,E and possibly her W and ulti are usually used at the same time which lowers the damage down to about 7,000ish damage.
AS/AP kayle on the other hand, averages about 15,000 damage dealt to the enemy team before resistances, ASSUMING no crits were made even with a 20% crit chance AND still not factoring in the statikk shiv damage.
I pretty confident that I have made my case clear.

Pros/Cons - Why play Kayle this way?
This list of Pros and Cons is exclusive to this paticular playstyle of Kayle.
Note that this list may be inaccurate for a standard kayle build.
-Great farming potential
-HIGHLY influential in teamfights.
-3 Second Invincibility on a 36 second CD at max rank + 40% CDR
-One of the best sustained AoE champions in the history of LoL i think,
-Steady high dps
-really good at split pushing waves
- 3.5 gold per second with all 3 gold items + 2 gold per kill (As opposed to 1.6 gold per second)
-Helps team with dps via Passive (Armor + MR shred)
-Helps teams deal with poke to some degree via heals
-extremely high gold income even with a modest amount of farming
-jungle has lots of chances to gank if the enemy tries to zone you
-still useful with the utility that Kayle brings even if underfarmed
-a bit weak in lane
-VERY weak ESPECIALLY vs her counters (ie: swain) your best hope is to beg the top/mid laner to switch lanes and hope things work out alright if you get countered
-may need to dip into jungle's mobs for some gold if getting super bullied
-on the weak side of temfights in terms of dps before completing nashor's tooth/Rabadons
-people may be unaccustomed to playing Kayle this way
Date of entry:
Summoner Spells - So you don't get totally screwed in lane
I know you guys are going to say something about flash so let me say this first:
Its just a personal preference that I use ghost since I like it better when I have 2.5 attack speed. Other than that, its totally cool to use flash over ghost.
This is important. Don't go replacing this because this spell is one of the few reasons why Kayle can stay in lane. Plus, if the enemy isn't so focused on killing the sh*t outta you, you can pull in some decent items without missing out on farm since your gold income is pretty high.
Date of entry:
Runes - Maxing out on Gold
The runes are obviously, the max gold per 10 for the Quints and Yellows(Seals).
The Red (Marks) and Blue (Glyphs) are there for the defensive side so you don't get too wipe out too hard in lane.
You can honestly use any combination of reds and blues as you see fit. The ones I listed are just my personal preference.
Date of entry:
Masteries - So much Nice Utility
The 9 points into Offensive is a must for Arcane knowledge. These points are the bare minimum to stay relevant if an enemy tries to dive you. I take 4% CDR since the E CD is annoying at early levels without at least 10% CDR.
These 21 points are focused into making laning phase easier for you.
Whether by making teleport coming back asap so you can recall faster and teleport to gank or back to lane or generating gold and giving you bonus exp, I find that basically all of these points are necessary/extremely useful.
The 3% movespeed is needed since I don't really get boots.(more on that in the items section)
The pickpocket mastery is basically free gold whenever you decide to skirmish/trade with your enemy, especially melee ones.
Date of entry:
Items - From Max Gold to Max AoE
Starting items:
Start with the building blocks for one of the 3 gold per 10 items. I would recommend an Amplifying Tome if you feel like 1 pot + biscuit is enough or one of philo stone's 180 gold items ( / ) and pots if you're expecting a rough lane.
Note:If you are having a really hard time in lane, you could consider getting a Fiendish Codex sometime after your first gold per 10 item and before your third gold per 10 item
After finishing the 3 gold per 10 items
After you finish all 3 gold per 10 items, you probably want to keep your AP up to a bare minimum so get a Fiendish Codex if you haven't already which will also boost your CDR up to 20% so you can last hit better with your E ().
After this step, your core items are:
- Rabadon's Deathcap (For AP)
- Nashor's Tooth (For AS/AP/CDR)
- Zephyr (For AS/MS/little bit of CDR)
How you build these three items and what order doesn't really matter at this point, though my preferred method is up on the top of the page (might change as I am in the middle of testing a specific change to the build order listed up there).
Mid Game - Early late game
After the above 3 core items are completed, GET RUNAAN'S HURRICANE. This is your biggest team fighting weapon. Your mere presence with this item will actually force fights to sing in your favor. You will also clear minion waves in seconds with this item, no matter how may super minions or how many super minions.
The reason why this item isnt built earlier is because you will either lack the CDR to keep it up effectively (Incomplete Nashor's Tooth), lack too much movespeed (Incomplete Zephyr), or just lack the sheer AP (Incomplete Rabadon's Deathcap) to do miracles with this item.
The 5th item
My strong personal preference and recommendation for the 5th item is Wit's End for more AP damage and defense, but you can easily replace it with a Guinsoo's Rageblade or a Blade of the Ruined King.
Just make sure you keep this item an attack speed item if you want to maintain a 2.5 attack speed.
Last but not least:
Statikk Shiv:
Your last item that should bring you up to 2.5 attack speed and your final source of Maximum AoE damage. Brings you that extra movement speed too and builds out of your final gold per 10 item.

My Results with Kayle - Meh gonna update this one later
lol atm my match history + kayle statistics is mixed with support kayle and apc bot lane kayles and all that crazy stuff, I have been able secure 5 penta kills this season with this build though if that's convincing enough. (check my stats in my lol client profile under the "Leagues" tab and check my kayle statistics if you don't believe me)
Just give me time to get a screen shot or two.
Also, plz riot, dont nerf kayle,
Closest thing to old Sivir atm and im loving the hell out of it.

Random Tips - To play Kayle better
1) press alt + (skill key) to instantly cast the spell on yourself, this makes ulting/healing yourself much more fluid
2)press Ctrl + (skill key) to level up the skill when you level up, this can give you extra time to save yourself just as you hit level 6.
3)Watch your own minions to better predict the movements of enemy minions/farm better
4)the normal jungle camps respwan every 2-3 minion waves
5)want to make a really quick look at who can possibly stop you from farming/split pushing?
Don't bother with the minimap, hold down tab really quick, all the dulled out champions that aren't dead are mia.
6)If you are split pushing and all the enemies alive are highlighted, quickly keep pressing tab so you know immediately when they go into the fog of war

Thanks for reading!
I wanna see how this guide worked out for other people outside of my elo.
It seems to be working for me well enough at my elo.
Be free to double check my math or give me feedback AFTER trying this build out.

During a talk at the Rebuilding America's Senses event at the University of Texas last month, Jones laid out facts about steel samples recovered from the WTC site that Popular Mechanics dare not even attempt to debate. Debunkers are scared to even get near this information because the science behind it fundamentally contradicts the official story of what happened on 9/11.
The spheres contained iron and aluminum, which would be expected in any steel sample, but also sulphur which is a by-product of a thermate reaction.
It has now been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that the collapse of the twin towers and WTC 7 was an act of deliberate arson and not as a result of fires from crashing planes.
Jones' evidence offers no other conclusion that insiders planted thermite devices within the buildings to literally pulverize the supporting columns and cause the collapse of the towers and also WTC 7. Debunkers have uniformly failed to address the existence of thermite and also molten metal at the ground zero site because they cannot dismiss the scientific proof, and are forced to resort to ad hominem insults and smears.
We are issuing a challenge to Popular Mechanics to rebut Professor Jones' analysis of the sphere samples and the clear evidence of thermate at the World Trade Center. Address the focused scientific proof without resorting to ad hominem attacks or straying off topic.
We don't expect the progenitors of yellow journalism to have any answers for what constitutes the smoking gun of controlled demolition.

With the several owners getting out of their timeshares for the last two years, the timeshare operators eventually suffered loss of profits. This year however might be different and most timeshare operators are hoping that this industry might bounce back and regain its status in the business world. This time, we'll see more expansions from a lot of these companies. Along with these, timeshare companies also are expected to carry out extensive advertising as part of their campaign to entice potentials owners.
For example, recently, the timeshare organization Resort Properties has launched a new website showcasing its Hollywood Mirage Club in Tenerife. The said site provides online users with an in-depth overview of the timeshare resort, including information on accommodation, facilities and services.
In addition, the visitors to the Hollywood Mirage website will also get to take a look at the various kinds of lodgings that are on offer, with a thorough description of each kind of unit. Moreover, a number of photos posted will provide users with a visual insight into what is on offer. Meanwhile, testimonials and reviews from guests who have stayed at the Hollywood Mirage can also be viewed on the timeshare resort's website.
Soon, the Resort Properties will also launch other websites for its other timeshare properties in Tenerife, including the Beverly Hills Club, Beverly Hills Heights and the Palm Beach Club.
The start of the year 2010 is already showing a recovery for the timeshare industry as shown by the latest projects of the timeshare operators compared to the last two years which were characterized by low sales and many owners getting rid of their timeshares. Some of those owners even hire a timeshare transfer company such as the Transfer Smart. As the hopes are brighter for this industry, there are still more developments expected for this industry to come this year.
