Hunnam 'serious' about 50 Shades
9:12am Thursday 10th October 2013 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2013
Charlie Hunnam has said he won't be daunted by his big-screen role as Christian Grey - despite not being what some fans had in mind for the Fifty Shades Of Grey role.
The Sons Of Anarchy star is set to play the billionaire in the movie adaptation of EL James' erotic novel, opposite Dakota Johnson as Anastasia.
"There are so many fans of that book and I know that on the surface, I'm probably not what everybody imagined," Charlie told Entertainment Weekly.
"Because reading is so personal and people bring a character to life in their imagination, they feel ownership over that character."
Charlie said he wouldn't allow himself to be cowed by those who have expressed doubts about him in the role.
"That's daunting if I allowed myself to think about it too much," he said.
"I'm taking it very seriously and intend to explore the nature of who this character is, what motivates him - and also dress up nice and look good in those suits."
His Sons Of Anarchy co-star Maggie Siff said she was confident Charlie would deliver.
"We're all like, what? And then (we) talked to him seriously about it. I think he's very brave to it. He doesn't do anything unless he feels it deep down," she said.

By: Diana Ozemebhoya Eromosele Posted: July 21 2013 12:54 AM 0 Generic image (Thinkstock) (The Root) -- Moments after the jury acquitted George Zimmerman, a friend of a colleague described how his 10-year-old African-American son looked at him and said, "Daddy, I'm scared." These three words gave him chills, he said, and illustrate a collective fear among young black boys about the value of their lives. It also brings into view an ongoing conversation many parents have with their black sons about how they may be perceived by some people in America and what that means for their safety. For many, that discussion may need revisiting, and re-tooling, in light of Zimmerman's acquittal. For other parents, it's a subject they have never broached with their child in a substantive way. Almost one week after a nearly all-white jury doled out Zimmerman's not-guilty verdict, parents may find themselves wrestling with one chief question: What do I tell my black son about George Zimmerman's acquittal? The Root spoke to a few experts who routinely help children and teenagers get through difficult times in their lives. These child psychiatrists and psychologists dished out recommendations for how a parent might initiate this conversation with their black sons, and also, how they might respond to some pretty critical questions and concerns this trial and verdict raised. There are no right answers, but here is some expert advice that might steer parents in a good direction. A History Lesson on African-Americans Beyond the things that many black mothers and fathers have already done -- expressing reassuring things like "I love you" and "I'll always protect you," experts interviewed said parents must give their children a good old-fashioned history lesson on black men in America. The advice must be age-appropriate, but also can be detailed if parents trust their children are ready. "The first thing black parents need to do is make their children culturally and contextually aware of their history in the United States of America," said Dr. Kristen Carothers, an African-American New York-based therapist who specializes in child and adolescent psychology. Carothers described how this will help explain to a black male child -- depending on his familiarity of the case -- about why there was a huge social uprising over a white Hispanic man being acquitted of killing an unarmed black teenager. Dr. Michael Chavis said parents should not speak about the verdict from a position of anger or hate, but understanding. If the child asks how the negative perception of black skin, by whites, came to be, Chavis encourages parents to be honest and give the only answer one could: "I don't have a real answer to that." Chavis went on to speak about a theory that says that the white slavers and eventual segregationists possibly possessed some sort of inferiority complex, which they in turn projected onto African Americans. "If you think of yourself as negative," he explained, "you've got to give that negativity to someone else, because it's hard to own it. "This notion of dark men being evil is something we learned. If we learned it, they taught it. We didn't come here thinking that about ourselves," he continued. "That's what we start to teach our children first, and then how to counteract that [idea] in their own lives." Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

In a few words comfy, cuddly and very pretty. I threw it on my couch and it instantly warmed up the living room. It is soft and so comfortable. A hot cup of chocolate a remote control and the throw make a great combination.
I was pleasantly surprised upon opening the package containing this visually modern/contemporary aesthetic throw! Not only is it high end in appearance to lay out over a sofa or chair, it is very well made. The faux fur side is soft to the touch. The lining that is next to your legs/body is also soft to the touch. I have seen and felt many throws to replicate a brown crushed faux fur that was given to me as a gift 4 years ago. This will companion well. I ordered and received the "grey" which is a great gunmetal color. Looks great with my black leather sofa and taupe walls. I am ordering a second to keep folded at the foot of my bed for the occasional chilly night in central Florida. Plan to send these as Holiday Gifts as well.
The color is not at all as described. I am disappointed in it simply for that reason.
Love it! Good quality, soft, its my blanket and nobody takes it from me, though they do try!
Soft and washable. God for the kiddies and prettier than the rag I had before...

Traveling all the way from its point of origin in Puerto Rico, the chupacabra (literally "goat sucker") has now popped up in the Texas town of Cuero. Or it allegedly has. Even better, sheriff's deputy (in training no less) Brandon Reidel caught the supposed chupacabra on tape.
The animal appears to have a long snout and forelegs slightly shorter than the hind legs, the textbook, or rather folkloric, description of the animal that likes to attack livestock, particularly goats, and drink their blood. Short-haired (rather than hairless like the classic chupacabra) the dread beast looks like a small dog, or perhaps a coyote crossed with a small dog such as a pit bull.
Or it could just be a coyote. After all, that's what the last chupacabra sighting in Texas turned out to be: coyotes suffering from a bad case of mange. Either way, the truth is out there.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisObviously a mangy dog or coyote or coy-dog. Silly attention to such obviously false cryptozoological encounters detracts from the encounters many folks have with creatures that are not yet classified by science. There certainly are unknown species existing in our world that do deserve research, and perhaps some quite fantastic by the establishment's standards. Mangy canids are, however, not news, save as a health hazard to family pets.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thishi. i ran across this by accident and had to watch the video, while watching my first thougt was, its a rabid dog or coyote, then the officer said the front legs were shorter than the back legs, i couldnt believe what i was hearing.
Several years ago my brother was on some land out in the country where we live, Limestone county. He was walking along and spotted a skeleton along side a barb wire fence, his first thought was that it was the skeleton of a dog or coyote, when he looked closer he noticed the front legs of this animal were shorter than the back legs and the snout was longer than that of a dog, or coyote. For weeks we tried to find out what it was and couldnt. I will definately call him tomorrow and tell him he has to come see this video he is gonna die. But what the heck is it? We had the skeleton of what ever that thing is running down the road. He carried it around the back of his truck for a week trying to find someone who could give us the answer, no one knew, I will find out where he buried the skelteon, i know that sounds gross, but the curiosity is coming back. Very Weird.
That video footage is entirely inclusive, it mostly shows us the obviously k9 creature from the behind. When it does show the head, well it looks a bit blurred. I think maybe its a dwarfed coyote or something.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisneither dogs nor coyotes have snouts like that - why people are so adverse to admitting there maybe some animal we have no clear scientific records on out there is a mystery to me - THAT is more of amysterty than the animal itself. But, clearly, whatever this one is - it is not a pig - or coyote and if it is a dog - it is not one yet discovered and well documented by science - but this does not mean it can not be the strange animal said to suck the blood of goats- what would be so strange about that anyway? Nature is full of incredible animals and creatures who do lots of - what we would consider- strange things. I sdisagree with Jeffreycharlesarcher's comments here that this creature does not deserve "research". why not? who are YOU to say it is a mix of a coyote and dog? Based on what? The fact is - we do not know what this animal is- and THAT is why it deserves research.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisJeffreycharlesarcher1 says it is a mangy dog or coyote dog mix - based on what EVIDENCE? For someone who says it is a false cryptozoological you don't offer much of that do you? This is no dog or coyote - look at the snout. This animal is as deserving of research as any unknow - fact is - we DON'T know what it is - do we? Based on the images - we have no idea what this animal is at all - so lets find out shall we.

The chupacabra is not new!
Even the deputy in the video does not think it's a chuba. Looks more like a dumb dog. There are 'suckers' up there, but not a goat sucker!
Did you ever consider Philosene or tasmanian tiger or perhaps a cross breed ! You have something truly historic happening and if you treat it with an open mind and very delicately you have a chance to bring back something thought to be extinct ! DONT BLOW IT !!!

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe whole chupacabra myth what solved by the the History Channel show, MonsterQuest with real bodies and DNA testing. All chupacabra sitings like these are actually coyotes or coyote/dog/wolf mixes with mange a skin condition that starts with mites and eventually grows into major hair loss and skin damage.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThere are tons of exotic zoos in Texas! I'll bet that somewhere a long time ago around the 20's someone had a Tasmanian Tiger and it got loose and bred with coyotes or wolves and made this crossbreed. The Tasmanian tiger is all but extinct, and its behavior is the exact same as what they are calling the chupacabra. The two breeds probably didn't mix well and ended up hairless, but the body style of this creature is EXACT to a Tasmanian Tiger.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThere are alot of exotic zoos in Texas, and I'll bet that somewhere in the 20's (long time ago) someone had a tasmanian tiger and it got loose. This creature has the exact same body build and features. They probably have been mating with coyotes or wolves of the area and that has produced baldness in breeding. It is probably nothing more than a mixed breed animal. Granted the tasmanian tiger is all but extinct now in Australia! But they have the same habits as this chupacabra creature does. Look it up on google!!!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisFunny, we only have had television etc.. for around 50 years. The First World War could not be broadcast live, images by film needed to be sent home and many went into movie theatres to see the "news". Now, that we are in the media age, we feel an arrogance that we know all that is around us and are quick to discount any type of new breeds, or dispell myths. There is so much of this planet that has not been discovered and our "media age" is such a small blip in to what the future holds, I feel that it is our sheer ignorance to assume that new species etc.. don't exsist, as I feel we still know very little about all of our world out there. Science is still very developmentary.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisDoes anyone agree that this totally is a dead ringer for the tasmanian tiger that supposedly is extinct?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisFilmmaker Joe Palermo from MonsterQuest Chupacabras here. The animal in the video, albeit very strange, is NOT the Chupacabras from Puerto Rico. For the real story, including illustration (no one has gotten a photo of it) go to www.its-dms.com/elchupacabras.htm
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe thing I recall about tasmanian tigers is that they had a very unique gait. They walked like normal animals, but when they ran it looked more like a of a bipedal hopping like a kangaroo or a galloping type gate like a horse. While I think it is quite possible tasmanian tigers are still out there I don't think this is one. The gait is looks like a dog running.
An animal needs to be in the same genus to be able to crossbreed with another animal . Since the tasmanian tiger is a marsupial, tasmanians and dogs/coyotes/wolves only share their Class Mammalia. A cross breed is not possible.

This is a Xolo dog or Xolo mixed with coyote but most likely pure bred from malformed dogs bred just north of this area. Irresponsible breeders will dump puppies if they don't conform to show standards. SPAY AND NEUTER and adopt from a shelter. SAVE A LIFE.

Looks nothing like a Tassie Tiger.
And coming from Australia I've even seen video footage of them.
Mind you, someone here said a theory about one cross breeding with a coyote or wild dog to creaate this freak of a dog. Thats the best theory I've heard yet.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisMy buddy has one in his freezer! He found the body in Clay County, Texas. I have seen pictures and video and will inspect it in person today. It is not a coyote or dog. It has hair much like a havalina or collared peccary. It has a long, thin snout. It does not look as if in could kill very easily. More conducive to eating bugs. It's ears are thick and do not bend very well. It's feet are different too. Will report more tomorrow!

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisthis coverage is kinda inaccurate. The "last chupacabra sighting in Texas" turned out to be half Mexican Wolf (paternal) and half coyote (maternal). That was the DNA finding of the chupacabra to the link that was given (the one with the picture of the head in the video). It was the time BEFORE that, which the thing turned out to be a bad case of mange coyote, but there are no pictures of that one. This video looks very much like the chupacabra of Cuero, the new half breed that we think we've found.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe mystery animal, purported to be a chupacabra, is not a chupacabra at all, but either a Peruvian Hairless Dog or Mexican Hairless Dog. Once you view photos of these two dog breeds, the mystery is put to rest.
The Peruvian Hairless Dog Google images
The Mexican Hairless Dog Google images
Both breeds range in size from 10 to 50 lbs. In both breeds,
The larger pedigreed dogs have sleek bodies similar to the Pharaoh breed, just like the purported chupacabra.
The rear legs are longer than the forelegs, just like the purported chupacabra.
Most never develop teeth, but some have canines/fangs, just like the purported chupacabra.
Most have the slate-gray or slate-black skin, just like the purported chupacabra.
The Peruvian and the Mexican Hairless differ primarily in the shape of ear and size of ear in proportion to head; one sports huge bat-like ears, while the other has ears like the Pharaoh breed, just like the purported chupacabra.
The dead animal is obviously no more than a mangy Peruvian or Mexican Hairless, a breed never before encountered by the ignorant Texans.
Please take a moment of your time and take a look at this scenario and learn from this event which happened in Texas. The general public at times finds it annoying when couples insist on bringing their infant along on their outings, such as restaurants, movie theaters, and undoubtedly more so when they bring baby along for a robbery. Can you just imagine how terrifying it is both for the mother and the infant she is carrying to see herself on that situation? Yes, folks, that's right, some joyful family unit down in Texas brought their infant along for an armed robbery of a payday loan store in the Lone Star State. This not only added to a growing number of payday loan store robberies, it added a nearly surreal element of bringing along their infant child that will no doubt grow up in foster care since the parents will be going to prison. When most people think of fun for the whole family, armed robbery isn't what most have in mind.

As we left Amarillo to Dumas a WEIRD dog/coyote type thing jumped out in front of us. It had No hair, front legs shorter than the back, long snout, UGLY as heck. We avoided hitting it, now I wish we had. I am 100% sure it was one of these things, NO DOUBT. My son has two Pit Bills, this was NOT a Pit Bull for sure, no dog, not grey fox, or anything like that.

Nearly 13.8 million homeowners in the U.S. were in negative equity at the end of 2012 — down from 15.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, real estate website Zillow reported Feb. 21 in its Fourth Quarter Negative Equity Report.
The report looked at current outstanding loan amounts across the nation for individual owner-occupied homes and compared them to those homes' current estimated values.
During the fourth quarter, 27.5 percent of all homeowners with a mortgage were underwater, compared with 31.1 percent one year ago. Zillow reported that nearly 2 million homeowners were freed from negative equity over the course of the year.
A jump in home values coupled with continued high foreclosure rates were responsible for the drop in negative equity. Zillow reported that national home values rose 5.9 percent year-over-year in 2012 to a median value of $157,400.
"As home values continue to rise and more homeowners are pulled out of negative equity in 2013, the positive effects on the housing market will be numerous," Dr. Stan Humphries, Zillow chief economist, said in a news release. "Freed from negative equity, homeowners will have more flexibility, and some will likely choose to list their home for sale, helping to ease inventory constraints and moderating sometimes dramatic, demand-driven price increases in some markets."
Among the nation's 30 largest metro areas, those with the highest number of homeowners freed from negative equity last year were Phoenix (135,099 homeowners freed in 2012); Los Angeles (72,936 homeowners freed); Miami-Fort Lauderdale (70,484 homeowners freed); Dallas-Fort Worth (59,461 homeowners freed); and Riverside, Calif. (58,417 homeowners freed).
Zillow predicted that the negative equity rate among all homeowners with a mortgage would fall to around 25.5 percent by the fourth quarter of 2013, freeing an additional 999,000 homeowners from being underwater on their homes.

• I know many people with seasonal collections of pillow covers, lamp shades, and throws that they rotate with the changing weather, and this year may be the one that I follow suit. A bright shade on a neutral sofa is often enough to transform the whole flavor of a room.
• Painted furniture may be one of the most highly debated topics among readers, but any thrift store junkie will attest to the fact that sometimes ugly veneers just call out for a coat of color. A painted traditional piece gives a classic room a youthful spring flavor, and the best part is that the color can be changed when the mood strikes.

Kanye West In Air Jordan 1 "Bred"
June 29th, 2012 by John Kim | 31 comments
Has Kanye even worn the Yeezy 2s since they officially dropped a few Saturdays back? As his big bro Jay-Z would say, we "off that" (or Kanye's already fully focused on the Air Yeezy 3), but one piece of apparel that will never be 'off' is the original Air Jordan 1 in the classic Black/Red colorway. Kanye was spotted rocking the Retros wearing a – wait for it – all black outfit, and although it's tough to tell whether his kicks are the 'Banned' variety or the 2010 or 2001 Retro release, Kanye's taste in Air Jordans has been a near-strict selection of OG colorways (and we're leaning more towards the non-Banned anyway). More of Kanye and has AJ1s below, so take a look and stay tuned for the next Celebrity Feet sighting! Photos: theybf

The sound came from the darkness. It racked my mind, sending my thoughts into pounding convulsions. I could neither define it nor locate its source, but I could describe its taste in great detail. The sound became a topic of heated discussion during supper one evening. My entire family was present. Every person in all of existence that shares blood with me. I described the sound's taste to them, and they exulted. Napoleon Bonaparte pushed himself to his feet, sending his feeble wooden chair flying. He had a crazy look in his eye, but no one stirred aside from himself. He was not a very intimidating man, especially in the presence of men like Simo Hayha. Simo considered Napoleon with a glance, and then went back to fiddling with the inner chambers of his rifle.
"A gun is no place for the dinner table, Simo. Not to mention the weapon of cravens." It was Alexander Hamilton speaking. Simo looked at him, but could not understand what he was saying.

Peering myopically at watch components so tiny they were almost invisible, I held my breath as he cleaned each bitty part with supreme care. Those of his ilk may soon be a vanishing trade if Urwerk's air-powered watch becomes the next new standard.

Comments about ClassicFlame Gotham Electric Fireplace Media Console in Black - 26MM9313-D974:
Bought this to add some extra heat to a large room and save space by putting a TV on top. Love the look of the fireplace and the cabinet. Only bad things is that it did take 2 people to put it together. It provides a nice firey glow and we just love it! Everyone that comes to our house comments on how nice it is.

About Me Midrange Shopper
This is a very attractive combination fireplace/media center. It's great for a room with contemporary design. Instructions to put together were very good. I couldn't tell from the picture, but the top is actually glass, not metal which is very nice. While the flame isn't like that from a real fireplace, it is pretty realistic and it is nice to be able to control the heat.
Service and delivery comments:
Service was exceptional. I spoke with several representatives by phone and internet, and everyone did their utmost to make this a good buying experience. I would definitely buy from them again if I decide to get a fireplace for another room.

Day 1 — modeling in chemistry
posted by: lrose
modeling is a way of giving students experiences or relating the experiences they already have to get at the concepts in chemistry.
We use whiteboards to present our explanations of everyday phenomena.
1st. we did diffusion in air what is happening at the particle level – cologne
2nd. we did diffusion in a liquid. dye in hot water and cold water.
then we talked about pressure. filled up a tube with water why didn't it pour out.
blow up the sealed garbage bag with 6 straws – raise a person off the ground.
lots of good data on a thumb drive. all the curriculum. s\
Showed the Eureka video – we show this . it is on you tube. other sites to see google : molo
google : tankerview or www.doctorslime.com also try phet or youtube. or concord consortium
This afternoon we will work on PVT problems
We worked with Vernier probes and compared the pressure with temperature, pressure with volume and pressure with amount of gas. We took our data and used the whiteboard to present our findings. We were each assigned one of the conditions and had to make a graph, draw a picture of what is happening with the representative particles and finally find a relationship between them( try an equation)
After the presentation we did worksheets that go along with these lab activities. We did one problem together and presented it on the white board
Discussion of temperature — we know from the video that temperature is a measure of the motion of the particles. So if there is no motion in the particles the temperature should be zero it is in fact from the lab extrapolated the teimperature to be -273 degrees celsius. so absolute zero is -273 K. If we have degrees celcius, then we must adjust the temperature by 273 then the units will be Kelvin. (K)
White boards are essential. My how time flies when you are engaged. It was 3:50 before we even realized .
Homework — oh no
take the ABCC– Assessment of Basic Chemistry Concepts
Read the 2 articles Socratic teaching — managing white board discussion
and great ideas and chemistry .
We are assigned to go over unit 2 and be ready to make a white board presentation by Friday– by our group.

Campus Safety Report
Hao Yuan
Coordinator of Campus Visits
Why did you choose to attend WKU?
Because it was just the right fit for me in terms of size, accessibility, and cost.
What sets WKU apart from the other schools?
Despite its large enrollment, it is still able to provide its students with a very individualistic and unique experience at both the academic and social level.
My favorite WKU tradition and/or memory is:
When our men's basketball team beat Drake in the first round of the 2008 NCAA tournament by hitting a last second 3-pointer at the buzzer.
The number one thing I encourage future students to check out:
The actual WKU hilltop which is still preserved in the courtyard behind Gordon Wilson Hall. If you want to be king of the hill at least once in your lifetime, this is the place to do it.
What is your favorite spot on WKU's campus?
At the Guthrie Centennial Fountain located in front of Van Meter hall because the view there is phenomenal.

Thought some of you may be bored with cabin fever and all, so I thought I would post this.
My other hobby it water ski jumping. I was going through some tournament videos last night, from last year,and came across this one. I came on the ramp a little late and my right ski fin caught the edge of the jump surface up the side of the ramp about a foot. I was a little soar but got out of the water on my own. That is my wife video taping. She has a bad habit of ending the tape on a good crash.
In the water ski world this is called a yard sale. Normally all your equipment is scattered across the lake.

For small-office situations where good-quality color printing trumps high-speed output, the Canon PIXMA MX892 Wireless Inkjet all-in-one printer is worth considering. For $199 list, the MX892 delivers two-sided color scanning, copying and printing, wireless and remote printing from mobile devices, and brilliant edge-to-edge color output rivaling much higher-end equipment. But with a relatively low paper capacity and cost-per-black-page north of 5 cents, this PIXMA model is clearly not for every situation.
Out of the box, the glossy, black finish of the MX892 makes an impression, as does its multipurpose control panel buttons. Thanks to clever backlighting, the buttons appear as arrow keys (shown) for controlling some printer functions and as number keys for performing numerical functions such as dialing a fax. Impressions continue when the printer's front door automatically opens to reveal output as it enters the lower tray. The unit occupies about 18 inches by 19 inches of desktop space and stands less than nine inches tall, but with its rear feeder and front door open, will require about 13 inches of vertical clearance and about two feet from front to back.
Constructed like a layer cake with rear hinges, the unit's sheet feeder assembly lifts on a spring hinge to reveal a flatbed scanner and copier glass, onto which as many as 35 originals can be fed, flipped over and copied on their reverse side. With the feeder closed, the scanner bed can be lifted and remains up with a plastic bar that's hinged on one side. This reveals the ink heads and cartridge assembly, which moves to maintenance position for installing or swapping out any of its five ink cartridges. To close the scanner bed, simply push the bar aside and it retracts automatically as the assembly gently lowers on its dampened hinges. After unpacking, the printer was set up and ready to use in about five minutes.

7 Guidelines For The First-time Home Buyers
According to a National Association of Realtors survey conducted in 2006 and 2007 the average first time home buyer's age is 31 years. This average is pointing towards Gen X, but in our experience we also have educated Gen Y'ers (or Millennials) on first-time home buying process. Even people that have bought and sold homes in the past often like to go through the steps of this process with us once again. So if you are a first-time home buyer, where do you begin and will you be happy with the ending? Let's talk about it:
- Before you consider buying a home take a look at your budget. If you are currently renting, do you want your house payment to be the same as your rent? Well, remember you will need to factor in not only your mortgage but also taxes, insurance and maintenance. If you are buying a condo you will also have to pay HOA fees.
- Check your credit. If you plan to finance your home you need to know what you qualify for. Check with your bank or ask your real estate agent for a mortgage broker referral and get a prequalification letter. This way you don't waste your time looking at homes you are not qualified to buy.
- Once you are prequalified for a loan and know what your monthly housing expenses should be, you can calculate your home price point. Don't spend hours on Trilia, Zillow or Realtor.com looking at homes you can't afford.
- Do you or your spouse care about the area where you will live? How about the style of your future home? You will have to live with what you choose, so it's ok to be picky. Figuring out what you like will help you narrow down your search.
- Find a Realtor. If you are a buyer you don't pay commissions, so please, please, please find a professional that can help you and guide through the whole process, from helping you with your search, writing contract, arranging inspections and appraisal to negotiations with the seller and a final closing.
- There are always closing costs involved in a sale of a house. Most of your fees will be associated with your loan and some with have to do with the title agency services. Ask your Realtor if the seller can contribute to your closing costs. Make sure you have some cash in your account for a down payment. Even FHA financing requires 3.5% down.
- There are several government assistance programs that can help you with financing and down payment that you may take advantage of. Again, ask your agent if you qualify for any of such programs.

Sea Otters Under Siege
Southern sea otters once ranged from Baja California to the Pacific Northwest. But by the 1920s they were considered extinct due to intensive hunting. They were listed as "threatened with extinction" under the Endangered Species Act in 1977. But despite decades of federal and state protection, the population of
southern sea otters
Enhydra lutris nereis
) which resides along the California coast, struggles to survive at a fraction of its historic numbers, estimated at 16,000-20,000 animals.
No one knows why the population isn't recovering. Pathogens and parasites, possibly linked to coastal pollution, can weaken otter immune systems. And the risk of a major oil spill remains a serious threat.
Why are sea otters important?
Sea otters are an iconic species, representing the beauty and diversity of life in Monterey Bay. They're also a keystone species, helping keep ocean ecosystems in balance. They eat sea urchins and other invertebrates that graze on giant kelp. Without sea otters, these grazing animals can destroy kelp forests and the animals that live there.
Sea otters are also good indicators of ocean health. Since they are the top predator of invertebrates along the California coast, changes in their health can make scientists aware of variations in the ocean environment itself.
Sea Otter Recovery
By 1911, when sea otters gained protection under international treaty, a small group of perhaps 50 otters survived along the remote Big Sur coast. Since then, they've slowly expanded their range and grown in number to nearly 2,800. As of 2012, their range extends from south of Half Moon Bay in the north to south of Point Conception in the south; only a small part of their historic range.

Welcome back US ambassador Susan Rice choosing the week of Thanksgiving to break -- silence on the -- scandal explaining why she blamed.
The video -- set of terrorism for the attack and -- Gaza.
When discussing the attacks against our facilities and -- -- I relied solely and squarely.
On the information provided to me by the intelligence community.
I made clear.
That the information was preliminary let me -- our particular gratitude.
To president -- of Egypt for his commitment to regional security.
As well as to -- and secretary.
We regret that part of it but let's first talk about where exactly the talking points came from.
On that very day joining us is Fox News legal morning Harry Johnson -- day after Thanksgiving and I Juliet good morning.
And man missed the -- yesterday I don't Juliette -- the college you -- estimated.
He was here flattered and righting the wrong.
But how about Susan Rice I want to talk about the -- -- comment Baylor and -- up in America but listen.
Isn't -- her job to take the intelligence.
Talking points and relay them to the news media wasn't that thoroughly and very good day brilliant -- -- -- -- -- -- -- at Stanford.
I heard she was had had a doctorate from Florida served you know I heard today was -- Truman Rhodes scholarship.
-- -- -- And our biggest mistake was.
To take talking points from the White House -- I get -- little house from the Internet.
It's -- trust us well -- James clapper.
Right says -- and I I Director of National Intelligence I took that that kind of -- and al-Qaeda stuff out right.
And -- so.
So for Susan Rice the the secretary of state in waiting as it were to say.
I'll take these talking points given he's a talking -- that you guys have put together that have been sanitized there have been cleaned up there have been altered.
And then I'll go out on national television live shows and I'll read it and -- said she shed some light at the same time you treat me as a credible person.
Who's worthy of becoming secretary of state.
So it was worthy of credibility.
And truth -- in diplomacy.
People tell lies all the time but there has to be some sense of credibility.
How will she be what -- you know world.
What you wish he had done it should have told the truth but to her that was the general no no no not how pushing -- way to find out the latest technology -- -- it.
Well common sense is a guide.
History is a guide past experience is -- guide.
Five attacks in the -- it in the previous few months the Red Cross being -- being on our own embassy being bombed the British ambassador almost -- assassinated.

These folks to begin.
The biggest question is why didn't we respond.
When we knew that we had to -- never overhead.
And that they were under attack in two separate occasions the biggest question is where people being held.
At that CIA.
Mission perhaps interrogation of law.
The biggest question is why the president hasn't answered any of these questions -- yet two months later those are the biggest questions I agree.
-- sideshow General Petraeus -- it -- things that sideshow in terms of the the relationships but I think he's a patriot.
And a hero but he made it clear in his testimony but we understand.

10 facts on the state of global health
Updated July 2013
WHO/Pierre Virot
Collecting and comparing health data from across the globe is a way to describe health problems, identify trends and help decision-makers set priorities.
Studies describe the state of global health by measuring the burden of disease – the loss of health from all causes of illness and deaths worldwide. They detail the leading causes of deaths worldwide and in every region, and provide information on more than 130 diseases and injuries across the world.

Feeling infinite, from left: Charlie (Logan Lerman), Patrick (Ezra Miller) and Sam (Emma Watson)
The Perks of Being a Wallflower takes us to adolescent places we either know or remember well: the heart-fluttering first crush or the high-school obsession with an SAT score.
Yet despite the familiar material in The Perks of Being a Wallflower — material that will be especially recognizable to those who have read the young-adult novel on which it is based — the disjointed but refreshingly earnest movie ultimately establishes itself as a charmer.
While Stephen Chbosky — directing from his screenplay, based on his 1999 book — occasionally leans a little hard on the overtly sentimental, he succeeds at the most important element in any film about that bumpy path from pubescence to adulthood: He makes us feel young.
Charlie (Logan Lerman of Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief), having recently lost his best friend to suicide, is entering high school with no acquaintances and no notable romantic history but an enormous appetite for making mix tapes and reading every classic work of fiction that his affable English teacher (Paul Rudd) slips him for extra credit.
When Charlie meets Patrick (Ezra Miller) and Sam (Emma Watson) — seniors, stepsiblings and self-defined misfit toys — he suddenly finds himself with two spirit guides willing to usher him into a world of Rocky Horror Picture Show screenings, marijuana brownies and the first glimmers of unrequited love.
One could argue that Chbosky adheres to his original work a bit too closely; there are moments in Perks when scenes flow abruptly from one to the next, as if the filmmaker is racing to squeeze the most crucial plot points into a 103-minute running time.
Still, the performances by the charismatic young actors — particularly the uber-confident Miller — compensate for any missteps.
The other star of the movie is the soundtrack, which, in keeping with the early-'90s setting, spills forth a parade of melodies from the Cocteau Twins, Cracker and the Smiths. That makes Perks a film designed both for nostalgic Gen Xers and the text-addicted kids of today. It is a movie for anyone who has ever ridden in a car beside his closest high-school friends with his hair whipping in a liberating weekend-night wind and his heart filled with a sense of the infinite.

AVERILL PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Tech Sgt. Joe Wilkinson is getting a new "smart home" for Christmas.
The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation and Gary Sinise Foundation teamed up to create the "Building for America's Bravest" program. It's planning an official ribbon-cutting Monday morning at the new home of 33-year-old Wilkinson and his family in Averill Park, near Albany.
The program has built homes across the country for service members severely injured in Iraq or Afghanistan.
Wilkinson has degenerative nerve damage believed to have been caused by toxic chemicals in Iraq. He's paralyzed from the waist down.
His family's four-bedroom "smart home" will feature the latest high-tech equipment.
Sinise played double-amputee Lt. Dan Taylor in "Forest Gump." He raises money for disabled vets through charity concerts with his Lt. Dan Band.

Cunard Wins Readers' Choice Award for Best Caribbean Cruise Line
Filed under: Dining, Luxury Travel & Hotels
Arguably the grandest, most magnificent ocean liner ever built, Cunard Line's Queen Mary 2 is the winner of the Luxist Awards' Readers' Choice Award for Best Caribbean Cruise. Queen Mary 2 is the flagship of Cunard, whose history dates back to 1839 when Her Majesty Queen Victoria awarded Sir Samuel Cunard of Halifax, Nova Scotia, the first ever license to deliver mail across the Atlantic Ocean.
While she is described as "timeless elegance", Queen Mary 2, which debuted in 2004, offers the latest luxury amenities, from the pampering services of the first Canyon Ranch SpaClub® at sea to a pool with a retractable roof, allowing it to be enjoyed in inclement weather. Queen Mary 2 also offers an award-winning intellectual and entertainment enrichment program led by prestigious experts in a variety of fields, including literature, the arts, politics, the sciences, culture, maritime history and academia.
The ship, which cost an estimated $800 million to build, is 1,132 feet long--113 feet longer than her predecessor Queen Mary, with space for 2,592 guests in lower berths and 3,056 total guest capacity, when including third and fourth berths. Her crew numbers 1,253.

The reuse study for the old Indian Valley Hospital building has been completed and is ready for review.
Indian Valley Health Care District Chairman Guy McNett will make sure there is a copy for the public to view at the Greenville Branch Library.
The documents are available on a compact disk, and the library has computers for viewing.
There were two comment periods; the last one has been extended to June 30, 2011, to give at least one interested party extra time to formulate a comment.
While engineers found the building to be sound, they also found it needed major repairs and maintenance.
The electrical system is out of date, although the plan notes only minor repairs are needed if the building is not remodeled significantly. If it is, they note a significant cost will be incurred to upgrade the system to current code.
The plumbing, heating and cooling systems, on the other hand, need major repairs or replacement.
Engineers noted it would not be feasible to re-permit and use the geothermal system for its designed purpose of heating the building, unless the cost of electricity increases "significantly."
Of all the uses explored, engineers noted the health and wellness center to be the most cost-effective option, due to minimal remodeling needs.
It was also the option shown to have the best potential to create more jobs in the near future.
The proposal for the wellness center was withdrawn, however, during the same meeting the plan was made available for the first time.
Meanwhile, in September directors decided to move ahead with plans to declare the hospital and business properties as surplus in preparation for a possible sale.
"Somehow this district has to generate a half to three-quarters of a million dollars to get us out of that chapter nine," McNett said during the September meeting.
The district has been in bankruptcy since 2003.
The surplus declaration has not yet been formalized, although McNett might ask for a special meeting to do just that.
Barring a special meeting, the next meeting of the Indian Valley Health Care District will be Monday, Dec. 6, at 5:30 p.m. in the Indian Valley Civic Center, 430 Main St. in Greenville.
