There has been so much talk about the govt getting ready for something big, preparing for unrest, Martial law etc. What if they are planning to blow this sinkhole, or even if they caused it with tunnel drilling in hopes to start a major nation changing quake. It blows, and a major quake takes place up and down the fault. It would effect countless nearby nuclear and non nuclear power plants all along the rivers there. It could destroy the strategic oil reserves that are stock piled just north of there. The power grid would drop from the loss of all the plants into the system much like the north east black out in 03? and the country would essentially be cut in half with regards to frieght etc.. You want a major incident, that requires martial law because of civil unrest etc. There you have it.
Way far fetched but hey, why not.

June 2016
Taylor was an amazing guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and energetic. Since it was a private tour it we were able to hear and ask questions. Great experience.
June 2016
This was the highlight of our 10 days in Germany and the Czech Republic. Cesar was exceptional! He met us at our hotel at 10:00 a.m. and immediately asked us what we wanted to focus on during our tour so he could meet our expectations. He had so much historical knowledge and was masterful at weaving story threads throughout our walk. He has a terrific sense of humor and was just a pleasure to spend the day with. We even talked him into sharing a beer with us at the end of our afternoon. We all came away feeling we had learned so much about Berlin, Germany, Hitler and WWII. Cesar is terrific, and you're guaranteed an incredible experience if you're lucky enough to have him as your guide.
June 2016
This tour was everything we wanted and more. Our guide was incredible and what we learned was immeasurable.
May 2016
JJ was a fantastic guide. His ability to help history come alive was unrivaled in my travel experience! He truly loves German History but it was fascinating through the eyes of a young Irish man. The Holocaust Memorial was definately the highlight of my tour and visit to Berlin. 3 days wasnt enough time to explore this vibrant city but I valued every minute spent on tour with JJ. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour.
April 2016

March 2016

January 2016
Our guide was very good. I learned a lot. Would recommend her to anyone.
December 2015
This was an excellent tour led by a top-class guide JJ. Informed and personable, JJ was the ideal guide for the three of us as he eloquently described the history of the Cold War sites we visited during this four-hour walking tour.
November 2015
In four hours, we covered four days worth of Berlin! The tour was fabulous as was our guide Taylor. He made Berlin come alive for us. We loved the tour and Berlin.
August 2015
Barnaby was a great guide - he really brought Berlin alive for us. We haven't stopped talking about it since. So knowledgable but fun, pitched it just right for the family 1 20 year old, 1 17 year old and two slightly older parents. I really loved Berlin and this tour was no small part of the cause of that.

Take that! Dramatic moment female purse-snatcher BITES hero passer-by as he pins her down... until he punches her in the face
- Evelyn Searl, 75, was eating at a restaurant in Grand Rapids, Michigan with her daughter when 24-year-old Mikayla Hull rode up on her bike and snatched her purse off the table
- Searl ran after her, but fell on her face before catching up with her
- Three men were able to apprehend Hull and detain her until police could arrive
- While they had her pinned down, Hull proceeded to bite Jonathan Damon, the man straddling her
- Mr Damon responded by punching her in the face
- Hull has been arrested and is pending charges of larceny and assault
- Police do not intend to press charges against Mr Damon for hitting Hull
McGruff the Crime Dog teaches kids to 'take a bite out of crime' but what happens when the criminal takes a bite out of you?
That's what lawyer Jonathan Damon encountered when he caught 24-year-old Mikayla Hull trying to make off with a 75-year-old's purse Tuesday.
The victim, Evelyn Searl, was eating at a restaurant in Grand Rapids, Michigan with her daughter when Hull rode up on her bike and swiped the bag.
Scroll down for video
Take a bite out of crime: 24-year-old purse-snatching suspect Mikayla Hull is caught on camera biting the man straddling her, a lawyer named Jonathan Damon
Searl ran after her but tripped and fell on her face.
Before Hull could get away, three men apprehended her and pinned her to the ground, with Mr Damon straddling her so she couldn't get up while they waited for police.
Hull's detainment by the citizen arresters was caught on camera by a passing Grand Rapids Press reporter.
The video picks up after Hull has been pinned to the ground, and she starts asking to be rolled over and have her hands put behind her back instead of being straddled.
Ms Searl is also captured laying on the ground after slipping and falling.
Victim: 75-year-old Evelyn Searl, on the ground in blue, attempted to chase Hull but fell on her face. When paramedics arrived, they determined she was uninjured
It seems that witnesses believed that Hull hit Ms Searl, and while she admitted to taking the bag, Hull tells Mr Damon that she didn't touch the woman.
'Dude she's rich, she's eating at a restaurant,' Hull said. 'I didn't break her nose. I snatched her purse. It was sitting on the table. I swear to god I wouldn't hit her.'
Hull continues to ask to be turned over, but the men refuse and she starts to wiggle in an attempt to break free.
'You're struggling you should not be struggling because you're going to get hurt,' Mr Damon warns.
'Alright, you asked for it,' he says before she bites him in the arm.
'You asked for it': Mr Damon gives out a word of warning before Hull starts to bite
Bitten: Hull begins to bite Mr Damon when he refuses to let her flip over onto her back
Punches: After she starts biting him, Mr Damon starts to punch her in the face. The man on the left eventually intervenes telling him to stop
Once Hull starts biting, Mr Damon starts punching her in the face until one of the other men tells him to stop.
'You just assaulted me fool,' she said.
After Hull was taken into custody by police, Mr Damon spoke with the reporter and seemed to be confused about Hull's gender, referring to her as a 'he' though he can clearly be heard in the video using 'she'.
Arrested: Police say Hull will be charged with larceny from a person and assault
'I was raised to never hit a girl,' he told the Press. 'I was raised at a time when you had no concept of a girl doing that. In the 1950s, girls didn't snatch purses. They wore petticoats.'
While Mr Damon was praised by the daughter of the victim, he's also received criticism on the web for punching a woman.
'I know I'm a bleeding heart and all that, but him slugging [the] girl in the head probably could've been avoided. The cops sure wouldn't have gotten away with it,' one commenter wrote.
After the incident he went to the hospital to treat the bite wound, which he says broke skin. Mr Damon received a tetanus shot and a prescription for antibiotics. Doctors told him to return if the wound becomes infected.
Hull was taken into custody and a police spokesman said she will be charged with larceny from a person and aggravated assault.
Police said they would not charge Mr Damon for hitting Hull.
'I don't think a crime was committed by him,' said Grand Rapids Police Lt Pete McWatters. 'To the contrary, he was defending himself.'
Paramedics examined Ms Searl on the scene and determined she was uninjured.
Her daughter, Samantha Searl, posted a comment on MLive.com about the incident:
'We want to make sure that everyone knows that she WAS NOT HIT by the thief, but FELL chasing after her. We are very thankful for all those who helped make a citizens arrest and, hopefully, end the thief's career.'

EPA Scrutinizes Cargo Ships' Emissions
Importers and exporters may face extra costs and regulations as the Environmental Protection Agency steps up its oversight of cargo ship emissions.
EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson announced a new proposal to regulate maritime emissions March 30 at a press conference.
In a proposal to the United Nation's International Maritime Organization, the EPA is seeking stricter emissions standards on oil tankers and other large ships within a 230-mile buffer zone around U.S. coasts. The EPA wants to cut sulfur in fuel by 98%, particulate matter emissions by 85% and nitrogen oxide emissions by 80% from current global requirements, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The EPA is proposing that ships use fuel with less than 1,000 parts per million of sulfur beginning in 2015, and that by 2016 newly constructed ships use advanced emission-control technologies. EPA expects the UN to review the proposal in July and perhaps approve it early next year.
Pressure has been mounting for the EPA to regulate emissions from cargo ships that troll in and out of the nation's many ports of call. A new report from the EPA's Inspector General criticizes the agency for not regulating foreign-flagged cargo vessels. These ships make up about 90 percent of the traffic coming into U.S. ports, according to the Los Angeles Times' Greenspace blog.
Because marine vessels have traditionally fallen under international jurisdiction, the U.S. has shown reluctance to regulate their emissions. Ships that burn bunker fuel are known to emit toxins and smog-forming particulates.
The U.S. has about 360 commercial sea and river ports.
According to the Environmental Defense Fund, large ships account for three percent of global emissions.
The UK shipping industry is advocating an emissions trading system for ships that would put a price on maritime carbon emissions, thus speeding up the drive for cleaner shipping technology.

The EPA has announced that it will hold a press conference on Monday, March 30, 2009, at Port Newark, New Jersey to announce its new proposal to restrict "harmful ship emissions."

Really good! My kids love this. I popped 1 cup of kernels in an air popper, cooked my caramel on the stove (about 5 minutes after starting to boil), and then added the popcorn at the very end. I also just used an unlined cookie sheet to cool on, worked fine! Thanks!!!
Holy Cow this stuff is good! I took the advice of other foodie bloggers and used 1/3 cup unpopped popcorn to make approx. 2 quarts popped corn and once I added the popcorn only microwaved it for 1 1/2 minutes. It came out perfect!
I just made this last night. It is sooooooo good. My Huby says it is much better than cracker-jacks. It is really easy. I will be makeing it often, i'm sure. LOL
Easy and tasty recipe. I omitted the nuts. Kids love this. Thank you!
I hate that I found this recipe...because now I'm going to get fat!! This is soooooo good. It gives fiddle faddle a run for its money. LOVE IT!!! EASY EASY EASY!!
This is a great recipe! I followed it exactly and my husband LOVED it. What an easy, tasty treat!
YUMMM.. I used margarine, salted popcorn and it worked perfect. Thanks for the great recipe! It was so easy!
oh I can't believe I did not rate this, as many times as I have made it! It is just wonderful
Made this for Christmas basket - had a couple of handfuls... mmmmmmmmm - will be making again... but for me this time!! Thanks ciao!!

Bad Motorcycle Bill
Published: Monday, January 28, 2008 at 5:56 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, January 28, 2008 at 5:56 a.m.
Motorcycle Bill HB 137, regulating speed at which motorcycles can be ridden in Florida is ridiculous. Tallahassee is now trying to pass a bill that will fine motorcyclists, take their motorcycle licenses, confiscate their motorcycles and/or put them in jail if they drive recklessly (they do not clearly define what recklessly is).
The legislators are now trying to cover their own negligence, when they passed the no-helmet law in the year 2000, by trying to pass this ridiculous bill. They should be trying to repeal the no-helmet law instead. You don't fix bad legislation by passing additional bad legislation.
Fatalities have increased each year since the No Helmet Law was passed in 2000. Eighty percent of all motorcycle accidents result in injury and/or death to the motorcyclist. There were 469 people killed in 2005 and 562 killed in 2006. Fatalities have increased each year since the no-helmet law was passed in 2000. In the previous nine years, from 1997 to 2005, motorcycle fatalities have increased by more than 125 percent.
You do not pass laws that will put the public at large in more danger as the no-helmet law has done. That is irresponsible legislation. Don't try to cover it up with another ridiculous law.
A couple of years ago, my son had a serious motorcycle accident when a van coming out of a parking lot cut him off and then sped off. He fell to the ground, skidding along the pavement and crashed his head onto the ground so hard that a large hole was made in the back of his helmet.
If he hadn't been wearing his helmet, he would either be dead or crippled for life. He had other safety clothing on. This saved his life.
He was not speeding at all. He was merely riding at the speed limit within the city limits of Winter Haven.

Light-Duty Vehicle Use Drops
In 2012, vehicle miles traveled per licensed driver of light-duty vehicle fell to 12,500, down from a 2007 peak of 12,900 miles, according to US Energy Administration figures.
The shift in vehicle miles traveled, or VMT, highlights the importance of travel behavior and its influence on LDV energy consumption. Before the 2007 peak, travel behavior in the United States tracked closely with economic growth. Since 2007, trends in US LDV travel have not followed the trends in economic indicators such as income and employment as closely, the EIA says.
Technological changes and improvements can also affect VMT. The increasing fuel efficiency of LDVs can influence personal travel by lowering the marginal cost of driving per mile. As vehicle efficiency improves, individuals can drive the same distance with less fuel and therefore at a lower cost, which may result in an increase in VMT. In recent analyses supporting the promulgation of new final fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions standards for LDVs in model years 2017 through 2025, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the EPA applied a 10 percent rebound in VMT to reflect the lower fueling costs of more efficient vehicles.
Other types of technological and environmental changes also can affect personal travel. Telecommuting, e-commerce, urbanization, and social media can supplant or complement personal vehicle use. Telecommuting, or working from home, can influence personal VMT. From 1997 to 2010, the share of the workforce working at least one day of the week from home increased from 7 percent to 9.5 percent. As that trend grows, so does the likelihood that individuals will reduce their total miles driven. The share of the working population that works exclusively from home also has increased, from 4.8 percent in 1997 to 6.6 percent in 2010. Although telecommuting can have an impact on reducing VMT, work-related travel in 2009 was only 25 percent of total personal travel.

Kellie Pickler Is Engaged, Proposal Detail Revealed
Kellie Pickler has followed the footstep of fellow "American Idol" alum Carrie Underwood. The fifth season finalist of the FOX hit talent search was showered with happiness on June 15, the day she celebrated the birthday of her late grandmother, as her songwriter boyfriend Kyle Jacobs asked her hand in marriage.
Kellie, who revealed that June 15 has long been "sad and hard" for her, told People, "It turned out to be the most amazing day of my life." The 23-year-old beauty continued, "My whole world changed. We both feel like we got my grandmother's blessing."
"I remember saying to Kyle, 'Baby it's like I'm dreaming - but if this isn't real, I'm going to be very upset!'," Kellie further shared about how hard it was for her to realize that the moment was real. The "Red High Heels" singer also revealed that Kyle proposed to her on a Florida beach at sunset.
On the detail of the proposal itself, Kyle revealed that he arranged a blanket, champagne and candles to be waiting as he and Kellie strolled on the beach. He told the site, "Afterward, we just held each other and had the most beautiful prayer. We had a little champagne and talked and laughed and cried."
Meanwhile, Kellie, who was raised by her grandmother after her mother left and her father went to jail, admitted that Kyle has changed her perspective of a family. She stated, "Kyle took away all my fear of marriage and has shown me the way love is supposed to be."
"I'm in the happiest place I've ever been," Kellie added as now she is engaged to Kyle and has resumed her relationship with her father Clyde Pickler, who's been sober for a year. The country singer will have Clyde walk her down the aisle. On Wednesday, June 23, she wrote on her Twitter page, "Yes, it's true. Can't wait to say 'I DO!' "

Posted by doompod on August 20, 2007 at 12:06 PM (CDT)
doompod, the 2-year contract has never been a requirement for buying an iPhone. Instead, the 2-year contract is required to activate and use the iPhone. iPhones were always available to purchase from the online Apple Store.

Posted by chris on August 20, 2007 at 7:30 PM (CDT)
Muero, that's true, I forgot that. Well,if I do decide to get one, now that they're like $400 less, I could always just do that hack that allows you to do the prepaid option.
Posted by doompod on August 20, 2007 at 9:04 PM (CDT)
Srry, i meant to say $100 less.
Posted by doompod on August 20, 2007 at 9:08 PM (CDT)
Let's see, the iPhone has been available for about two months and there have already been enough defective ones returned so that Apple can now market refurbished phones. Sounds like quality control issues to me.
Posted by jess on August 21, 2007 at 3:29 PM (CDT)
For Jess: An iPhone (or any other electronic device, for that matter) which was opened, then returned, cannot be sold as new. Remember that Apple & ATT sold 270K iPhones by the "end of the quarter," which included only Friday evening and Saturday. They've probably sold 500K-1M by now. If only 1% were returned, that would be 5K-10K iPhones that could be sold as "refurbished," once they were checked out.
Posted by gslusher on August 22, 2007 at 12:59 PM (CDT)
OR, as some other forums have speculated, this move to "refurbished" is to either A) Test a new lower price point or B) Moving unsold NEW iPhones either because sales are not meeting internal projections or because they are already reducing stock to make way for a newer model before Christmas.
No matter how you look at it, it is interesting. And I wouldn't say any of the ways are necessarily good from Apple's point of view. Either they have too many unsold units, or too many defective units.

TV & Radio
Sky Television has apologised for airing footage of a Crowd Goes Wild presenter swearing.
During an advertisement break on a repeat broadcast last night, the show cut back to presenters Andrew Mulligan and Mark Richardson, with Mulligan telling his co-host to "f... off".
The show then cut to more ads before the same clip of Mulligan swearing was aired again.
The footage was apparently shot during a rehearsal for the show and was aired through human error, Sky said.
"This error was out of the control of The Crowd Goes Wild team."
Sky said it would review how the mistake occurred so that it could be prevented in future.
Shortly after the incident, The Crowd Goes Wild Facebook page posted a lighthearted message apparently on behalf of the show's producer, Ric Salizzo.
"This is the Boss of CGW. My name is Ric. I would like to see both Mark and Andrew in my office tomorrow," it said.
Comments on the post generally supported Mulligan and Richardson, blaming the error on the behind-the-scenes staff.
Others dismissed the slip as a publicity stunt aimed at upping ratings.
"Chur boys promotion time. Can't see any other reason. If you are getting complaints then those complaining should simply watch Shortland Street," Troy James wrote.

Southland's top volleyballers served up the first round of the Premier League on Monday night, leaving Volleyball Southland management impressed with the quality of play.
The new Lone Star-sponsored six-week competition began on Monday with 10 teams - six in the men's league and four in the women's competition - and, after just one round, Volleyball Southland regional development manager Donna Milne was thrilled with what she's seen.
"The idea behind starting this new competition is to give the region's top players a chance to play more competitively on a regular basis and at a higher level than was available in our social competitions," she said.
"Whilst our social competitions are a huge part of our sport, it's important that we cater to that more elite player base as well, and the Premier League certainly fills that gap.
"From grassroots to elite, our sport needs to be accessible to all levels and we're working hard to achieve that."
The Premier League will be played over six weeks - with one three-week block this month and another starting in late October.
The competition includes several high school teams, who have boosted their stocks with adult players. Milne believes the chance to play at a higher level more regularly will benefit those teams as they look towards interprovincial championships in October.
With players' experience varying from high school level through to a former New Zealand representative, it is a competition Milne expects will be competitive and exciting.
"The first round alone showed just how much talent is out there, which is hugely encouraging. I'm really excited to see how the competition, and the players, progress throughout the six weeks of play," she said.
"Our high school teams, along with all of the other players involved in the competition, should really benefit from playing at a consistently higher level."
The women's competition winner will be decided after two rounds of round-robin play, while the men will have one round-robin round, before playing straight finals in the final round of competition.

"Latin is a precise, essential language. It will be abandoned, not because it is unsuitable for the new requirements of progress, but because the new men will not be suitable for it. When the age of demagogues and charlatans begins, a language like Latin will no longer be useful, and any oaf will be able to give a speech in public and talk in such a way that he will not be kicked off the stage. The secret to this will consist in the fact that, by making use of words that are general, elusive, and sound good, he will be able to speak for an hour without saying anything. With Latin, this is impossible."

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis
More food for thought:
"I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history."

Booked two private single rooms for 1 night via hostelworld. Upon arrival the person checking us in was excruciatingly slow and after about 15 minutes of clicking and typing, we were given a very slow breakdown of the rules for the hostel and then she produced one set of room keys for us even though we booked 2 rooms. After another 5 minutes, we were told Hostelworld made the error by passing on the wrong information to the hostel. The person then repeated the above process including the speech.

Just be prepared for one bathroom per floor. It helped that we had a sink in our room. It was nice to have a TV. Minimal, but just right for a visit when I am out of the room most of the time. At least one of you needs to be able to climb into and out of a top bunk bed. Great for those who want to exercise in a large facility!

Christopher Walken Taking Over the Dad Role in "Hairspray"
It turns out that the role has shifted into Christopher Walken's hands. The actor has been appointed to replace the previously-announced Jim Broadbent to portray Wilbur Turnblad in "Hairspray", Variety has reported.
Being so, Walken thereby is joining the star-studded cast consisting of John Travolta, Queen Latifah, Amanda Bynes, and Michelle Pfeiffer among others. The pic itself has been set to be helmed by Adam Shankman based on Leslie Dixon's script. Production is scheduled to begin next month in Toronto with an aim to release the project by summer 2007.
A veteran actor whose acting career spans for more than four decades, Walken is last seen playing alongside Adam Sandler in "Click" which opened on theaters last June. His next film projects include "Man of the Year", "Fade to Black", and "Balls of Fury."

Hogle Zoo
Salt Lake City now has its first newborn baby elephant in more than 89 years.
Christie, a 7,900-pound African elephant at Hogle Zoo delivered her first baby Monday afternoon, after a 22-month gestation.
The 251-pound and 36-inch tall female calf is reported to be doing well.
"The birth was extremely fast," elephant manager Doug Tomkinson said. "It went easy and well, but I can't believe how fast it happened."
He added, "This is something miraculous that has occurred. It has been years of hard work from the elephant staff and everyone else involved, and now the calf is finally here."
The baby pachyderm already has a trunk measuring 15 inches long.
Now that the elephant has been born, the staff is working on helping mom and baby bond.
"Right now we're working to get Christie and her calf comfortable around each other," said Nancy Carpenter, zoo associate director for animal health. "We are also closely watching the health of both elephants in these important first few days since delivery. The baby has begun nursing, which is a good sign for us."
Renowned elephant reproductive scientist Frank Goeritz, one of the team who performed Christie's artificial insemination, was also on hand to assist with the delivery in case any obstacles were encountered.
Zoo spokeswoman Holly Braithwaite said it could be as long as six to eight weeks before the public gets to see the new arrival. "We'll certainly let the public know when she does come on display," she said.
Christie was artificially inseminated in October 2007 so that she and baby would enjoy some warm weather upon delivery in summer of 2009. African elephants carry their offspring 20 months to 22 months, the longest of any land mammal.
Christie became pregnant after three attempts at artificial insemination in 2006 and 2007. She was confirmed pregnant through an ultrasound in February 2008 by a team of German veterinary scientists from the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research in Berlin. "Not only was the timing good, but Christie's cooperative behavior was good, and she was very receptive," Goeritz said after the February ultrasound.
Jackson, a male elephant in the Pittsburgh zoo, is the father.
The Association of Zoos & Aquariums' Species Survival Plan for African elephants recommended now-23-year-old Christie as a good candidate for breeding, in part due to her age.
The renovations of Hogle Zoo's Elephant Encounter in 2005 enabled participation in the artificial insemination program, furthering a commitment to elephant survival.
"We are excited and proud to have our first baby African elephant born at Utah's Hogle Zoo. This success began with the community's support of a better home for our elephants at 'Elephant Encounter,'" says zoo executive director Craig Dinsmore. "From that milestone, our elephant and veterinary staff have dedicated themselves to helping Christie elephant have a healthy baby. This is a tremendous accomplishment for them and for Christie, and it demonstrates the value of improving the zoo for all the animals."
Christie went off public display last Friday morning, as it was apparent she would soon deliver based on decreasing hormone levels.
With the new baby being a female, it will likely remain at Hogle Zoo with its mother indefinitely because female elephants tend to remain with their mothers for life, while males eventually go out on their own.
Tomkinson and other zoo workers have been hoping the impending birth will help them cope with the death of Misha, an elephant that was euthanized last September.

Mortage vs Apartment living cost
Poster Handle
Post Content
Buying is better imo. As stated, if you lock in a good low mortgage rate, your monthly payment stays the same for a decade.
I just bought at a 3.6% rate for 10 years, monthly payments including tax are $700 for a 3 bedroom rancher with a basement ready to be finished. Once the basement is finished, I can rent it out if money ever gets tight.
But the bottom line is this - when you rent, you're giving your money to someone else. When you buy, you're giving your money to yourself, in the form of equity. Once my mortgage is payed off, I'll be sitting on $150,000 worth of equity, and my living expenses will be significantly lower at a time when they need to be.
Renting = pissing away your money
Mortage = investing your money
CleverMoniker 33226516
You HOPE you will have equity.
...and I have always wondered how someone is able to purchase a house without being able to spell the word PAID, not payed or any other choice spelling.
Go figure?
...and there is very much an argument to be made against your case, I will leave it to you to find it and figure it out.
I am also very weary of YOUR STORY as to being able to purchase a 3 bedroom BUNGALOW, we don't EVER use the word RANCHER in Canada and to have so-called equity of only $150k after 10 years? ..do the math.
so you put down roughly 50 to 70K?
700/month with 12months to a year = approx $8400 in payments per year.... WE ALL KNOW INTEREST IS WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR THE FIRST 5 YEARS EASY ...
You will have no equity of $150 LMAO
Take your story elsewhere BRO
Anonymous Coward 31546051
I'm in Atlantic Canada. In my province 'bungalow' has become a naughty word in real estate in the past few years. All the MLS listings now phrase them as 'ranchers' and not 'bungalows'.
Obviously I'm being vague on the finances, sorry I didn't think the GLP community was really that interested in my life...
But yes, I'm paying down 20% upfront, and the cost isn't *exactly* 150k. Amortization over 25 years to keep the monthly payments as low as possible. I currently co-own another property that has 40k left on it's mortgage, once it sells I can use my half of the money to also make balloon payments up to 16k a year. If my current financial situation keeps, I can have it completely payed off in less than 15 years. If it doesn't keep, no worries because in 10 years I can refinance and get my monthly payments even lower if I need to.
All this is moot, my main point still stands.
Every month that you pay rent, you're pissing money away and making someone else richer.
Every month that you pay mortgage, you're investing in your own equity.
CleverMoniker 33226516
What about the interest that you will pay over 30 years???
On a 100k loan... Depending on your interest rate you will pay over 100k in interest.
If you factor in the interest charges then you will be lucky to break even.
Unless of course Obama saves us all..

Could An OTC STD Test Change Everything?
Photo: Courtesy of EPT.
If there were an easy, cheap, OTC STD test available, would you use it? It seems like many of us might. Whether it's to vet a potential paramour or put our own minds at ease, a simple test for common sexually transmitted diseases could change lives.
Over at Forbes, contributing writer Bill Frezza details the economic and social possibilities of such a product. Though it's not on the market yet, a Boston startup named Boston Microfluidics is hard at work creating a prototype. They're confident they can deliver on the promise of an easy-breezy test available in your local Duane Reade.
It's also super important to consider how this sex tech could enable men and women to take their health into their own hands. No more heading to the doctor for a costly appointment and even more costly lab work. No more nagging anxiety about your or your partner's status. Any tool that makes it easier and more acceptable to guard and maintain your health? Definitely a good thing. (Forbes)
