Fall has arrived!
And Fall in the Hudson Valley is a spectacular place to visit. If you hurry, you can still get to Kingston for the O+ Festival (Oct. 5-7, 2018), a unique festival of art, music and wellness. The three-day multi-venue festival originally launched in Kingston in 2010, has now evolved into a huge community of public artworks and loads of music. During the annual event, all participating artists and musicians exchange their contributions to the festival programming for free and receive discounted health and wellness services from a volunteer-staffed "pop-up clinic". This year's festival (the ninth O+ Festival) themed "Shadow", focuses on locally based artists. Interactive and participatory projects include murals, light and shadow projections and site-specific installations throughout the city. What could be better? Listen to great music. Enjoy a self-guided tour of the O+ murals and enjoy the creative large scale art painted on buildings around Kingston.
On Sunday Oct. 7, the Kingston waterfront celebrates Columbus Day with the 11th Italian American Festival starting at 11:00 AM and ending at 7:00 PM. Every year we go and eat our fill of favorite Italian specialties; pizza of course, sausage and pepper subs, pasta of any type, pasta e fagioli (soup), meatballs, rice balls, zeppoles (those yummy morsels of fried dough dusted with powdered sugar) and cannoli. To
wash down the food, there's wine, beer, Pellogrino water and plentiful bars and drinks at the restaurants along the Strand. It's not all food and drink. There's Italian specialty foods, gifts and traditional products, And throughout the day, the folks will be foot-tapping to Italian standards, opera, and lively cover bands.
And a couple of days later, one of the country's best independent film events, the
2018 Woodstock Film Festival will take place in Woodstock, Rhinebeck, Rosendale,
Saugerties and Kingston, NY. This year's festival (Oct. 10-14, 2018) offers screenings,
(features, documentaries, shorts, various animation shorts, video shorts and teen films) as well as panel discussions, live music performances, and art-related activities. This year's Maverick Award will be given to Julie Taymor (Tony, Emmy and Grammy-winning and Oscar-nominated filmmaker) and the Filmmaker Award of Distinction will be given to Matthew Heineman (Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award winner). Make plans now, and book dinner at one of the new restaurants that have recently opened in Uptown Kingston, then walk over to Backstage Productions on Wall Street for the Maverick Awards
ceremony Saturday Oct 13. Dress up, wear a tux or a gown: who knows, you might meet a celebrity!

Downtown Cafe
Larry had been watching the progress all summer, and every time he bumped into Graziano, would ask him how it was going and when did he expect to open. Soon.. was the response. As June crept into July, then August and September, we watched, waited, and made sure to duly update our friends on the renovation. As every restaurateur knows, a lot of work goes into opening a café. The monumental task of turning an old brick building that had earlier housed a hair salon and most recently a ground floor office space, into a up-to-date food establishment takes a lot of planning, and tons of elbow grease.
It's now been two weeks since the Downtown Café re-opened at the top of Broadway (near Spring Street). The neighborhood has been in a buzz since the soft opening. The dinner hours on the last two Fridays and Saturdays were packed with old friends and neighbors who came to eat. And everyone who ate there agrees, Graziano has got his 'A' game back.
It's a simple homey place, a long wooden counter and center aisle separates the tiny open kitchen from the sturdy wood tables and chairs next to the wall. A mix of retro vinyl bar stools and plain wooden stools sit at the counter. When the weather permits, some of the wooden tables are moved outside for sidewalk dining.
It's our opinion (shared by quite a few aficionados) that the counter is the best place to sit. Larry & I walk in with our bottle of wine (he's still working on a wine license), hop on a pair of bar stools and wait for the Hello's and Hi's to stop so we can look over the Specials or ask Graziano what's in the fridge. It's like going to Nanna's house for family dinner. You never know what he's cooked up but if there isn't anything on the menu that appeals, you know Graziano can make you something.
On earlier Fridays and Saturdays we ordered Italian Style Baked Chicken and Roasted Pork Loin straight off the menu. We noticed the Pate with Crostini has been a big hit at the neighboring tables. Hhmm, may have to try that one next.
We noticed the Beef Stew was a Special but we had already ordered. So we went back the next morning to get it for Breakfast. It's true, stew always taste better the day after it's made. This week I ordered the Grilled Pork Chop from the menu and Graziano made Larry a Grilled Salmon with Lemon and Artichoke. We have shared side orders of Grilled Skinny Asparagus, Homemade Pappardelle with Tomato Sauce, Double Mashed Potatoes, and Heirloom Tomato Salad.
This morning, I went to help Graziano make rice balls and meatballs for the Italian Festival. When Graziano pulled out this humongous(!!!) tub of cooked flavored rice, I thought we were planning to make a million rice balls. Turns out all that rice only made a few hundred 3" balls. These were definitely the biggest rice balls I've ever seen, actually the only rice balls I've ever made. My family is Chinese and my sisters will never believe I helped to make rice balls.. almost as strange as throwing rice at weddings!
BC Gee. owner of the Rondout Inn
The British are coming! The British are coming!
Today when I hear this, it usually means we have guests coming in from across the pond.
But back in colonial days, we would have grabbed the silver and the milk cow and run for the hills. The British has been soundly defeated at the Battle of Saratoga by Washington's Continental Army and they were mad as hornets. What better site for their revenge than the newly created New York State Capital, Kingston?
On a Fall October day in 1777, soldiers from British-captured New York City, sailed up the Hudson River to retaliate. Landing at Kingston Point, the red coats marched along the Rondout Creek and up to the Stockade area (now known as Uptown Kingston), burning houses along the way. And since the colonial militia was off fighting elsewhere (such as the Battle of Saratoga), only a few brave locals were left to repel the invading British soldiers.
In just a few hours, the angry redcoats burned down over 300 buildings. Luckily, most of the townsfolk had already left before the invasion. It was a dramatic moment in the American Revolutionary War.
In a few more weeks, Kingston will celebrate this biennial event marking the 240th anniversary of the battle with its 20th anniversary reenactment on the weekend of October 13, 14 and 15. Highlighted by a dramatic British invasion at Kingston Point Park along the Hudson River, red coated British Troops, colonial militiamen and historically garbed townspeople will present three full days of free activities.
What other city in New York State, let alone the United States, celebrates their burning down? Come and explore today's bigger and better Kingston, with its three distinct districts. Tour the British military camps and watch 18th century company drills. Take advantage of the various historic presentations and lectures at the Senate House Museum, the Persen House, and the Hudson River Maritime Museum. Hear first-hand accounts by the long-dead at the Old Dutch Church Cemetery. Dance to live 18th century music at a costume Ball held at Kingston City Hall. Cheer on the Colonial militia, who though outnumbered and defeated, lived on to rebuild.
The Burning of Kingston is weekend-long celebration that draws thousands of visitors to Kingston NY. For

Upstate Smorgasburg
It's an 8am load-in. Which is not atypical for an antique event. We dealers are used to being up early, ready to back into our allotted space and unload a carload of merchandise at an ungodly hour. Actually, the Upstate Smorgasburg starts at a decent hour. When we do E.T. (Elephant's Trunk) in Norwalk CT, we have to be on line by 5:30 am, just to get onto the field.
I'm really glad too, that Smorgasburg is only one weekend per month (third Saturday and Sunday of the month, from May through October). Last year's schedule of every Saturday from August to October was exhausting. By the time we loaded in at 8am, worked our booth and packed up at 6pm; we barely had enough energy to unpack the car at the end of each Saturday. And this was every Saturday for 13 weeks. My husband Larry sardonically observed that it was easier for all the other vendors there – they was half our age!
Part of the appeal of Smorgasburg is the food. The food vendors prepare and cook their food on the site, offerings range from oysters on the half shell to ramen burgers. We usually check out the food as soon as we finish setting up the booth. We want to know what we can grab when we get a chance to eat. So far our favorites are the smoked salmon skewers from Hook Line Sinker and the Poke Bowls from Ono Grinds Poke.
All complaining aside, it's not all doom and gloom. It's actually a lot of fun meeting friendly people, especially those who recognize what we have and can pinpoint what year they (or their parent) had one. And it's a lot of fun re-discovering all the stuff we had forgotten we even had. We've been selling mostly mid-20th century housewares and accessories. Mad Men has made a huge impact on our collective memories.
Last month we brought old record albums to the show. Larry had found several cartons while emptying out the upstairs closet. We had moved them from New York City 28 years ago, shoved them into the closet and forgotten them. After he sorted them into Keep and Discard, there were 2 groups of cartons, one of 2 and the other of 6. Guess which ones were the Keep?
The Smorgasburg buyers have all been impressed at how good a condition these records are in. But then, no one has played them in at least 28 years. The two cartons of mostly Disco albums have been a big hit at the show. Who knew how popular Disco albums would be 30 years later? Donna Summer has never had it so good.
BC Gee, proprietor of Mezzanine Vintage & The Rondout Inn
About Smorgasburg
Smorgasburg at the Hutton Brickyards in Kingston, NY is a monthly market every third weekend of the month from May through October. Situated on ten acres on the Hudson River waterfront, Smorgasburg Upstate features some of the Hudson Valley and upstate region's most exciting chefs, food purveyors, and craft brewers alongside a curated selection of handmade design, vintage clothing and antiques. There are also a few of our favorite Brooklyn vendors as well activities for children and family-friendly musical fare.
Market hours are 11am to 6pm on Saturday and Sunday. Public Parking available on site. Dogs are welcome and must be on leash at all times.
From Soup to Nuts
It's early Friday night, our guests have arrived, checked in, and given a tour of the premises. And they're hungry. Where should we send them?
We have 12 restaurants within walking distance from our inn. Depending on the type of food you want and your price range, you could have simple stuff like hamburgers on a covered porch to fresh Mexican to fine dining at a bistro style restaurant.
Not ready for dinner yet? Grab a seat at Brunette Wine Bar, the exquisite little neighborhood wine bar and enjoy a glass off their very interesting selection of small vintages. Then when you're ready, continue down to the waterfront. Stroll along the bulkhead and check out the boats docked at the City Marina or the Hudson River Maritime Museum docks.
Or walk directly to the Southern BBQ restaurant Ole Savannah, furthest along the Rondout Creek. It's got the best view of the water. Indulge in a drink at the outside bar and watch the boats come in. Grab an appetizer.
Then there's Dermot Mahoney's Irish Pub where you can drink, watch sporting events and listen to live music. It's got lots of atmosphere; the local Harley owners have adopted it as their go-to place. Next door is the Golden Ginza, the Japanese/Chinese restaurant set up with a sushi bar and teppanaki grill tables where the kids can ooh and aah over the "flipped egg into the toque" trick the grill chefs entertain the diners with. Across the street from them, the colorful Mexican restaurant Mole Mole has a broad menu of tasty tacos, soups, vegetarian entrees, interesting Mexican sodas and a bar stocked with a large selection of specialty rums.
And who's not into Italian? You can't miss Savona's Trattoria's sprawling sidewalk seating, and the huge servings of pasta and meats along with a full menu of Italian pastries. And across the street, the seafood restaurant Mariner's Harbor, with its closed porch and tented patio offers a raw bar as well as a family friendly menu that families with kids can enjoy hanging out at.
When asked which is our own personal favorite; we have to admit it's the intimate bistro Ship To Shore, whose chef/owner is a CIA (Culinary Institute of America) graduate. For lunch we've grabbed a fancy Chef's Salad there and indulged in an extravagant dinner, a fine bottle of wine, finished with a fabulous French dessert. On other occasions, we've walked the extra block over to Armadillo, the Tex-Mex restaurant (where we had our first meal in Kingston 28 years ago) Their Jicama, tomato, avocado and corn salad is one of the most refreshing dishes we've ever had; and their Margaritas are rated No. 1 in town!
For breakfast, we recommend Dolce, a little café 2 blocks away from our inn.
The owner is from Venice (Italy) and she specializes in crepes, omelets and pancakes. They cook one dish at a time, so be patient! But if you're into less carbs, head down to the new coffee shop Redstart Coffee Bar down at the bottom of the hill. Fresh coffee, egg sandwiches, simple baked goods and free WiFi in a pretty sunny open setting is a great way to start the day.
Need a dessert or a fancy cake to bring as a host/hostess gift? Stop by the fancy cake bakery Enchanted Cakes which has made itself a home on the waterfront. Everything is made from scratch and can even be ordered in advance.
(On the weekends, most of the kitchens stay open late; usually closing around 10PM.)
"Do you have any availability? No? Ok, I'll call Barbara. No? Okay, let me check with Nancy then".
After making several phones calls, and waiting for a couple of call backs, we discover there is no room at the inn and we have to tell the disappointed callers there are no rooms anywhere. We have been doing that all season long. As we are all friends, no one begrudges the time it takes but one day the light bulb went off!
Larry Zalinsky, co-owner of the Rondout Inn realized that his booking engine had opened the door to a wonderful opportunity: our own OTA (online travel agency). Free-to-Book, a booking engine based in Glasgow, Scotland had offered to develop a database of related inns and bed & breakfasts to create one entity for guests to book short term stays.
It took some time, a lot of work and pooling individual strengths and group skills, but after a couple of intense concentrated months, Kingston's first OTA was born. We are a group of six individually operated bed & breakfasts, inns and apartment suites who love hosting and sharing their varied experiences. As innkeepers, we offer lavishly furnished inns, bed & breakfasts or apartment suites; and as hosts, we love sharing our knowledge of Kingston, the Mid-Hudson region, and all the different activities that the Hudson Valley offers.
The BoutiqueInnsofKingstonNY.com website works just like Expedia or Hotels.com's websites. Just enter the dates you are looking to stay on the calendar, tell it how many guests are in the party, click on the Availability Button and see which of the six inns come back as available. You can book your stay directly on the website. It can't get any easier!
Bel's Inn, DeMew House, Forsyth Bed & Breakfast, Gallery Inn, Rondout Inn in the Rondout Waterfront District and Schwartz's Inn in the Uptown Stockade District are the proud parents of BoutiqueInnsofKingstonNY.com , born July 1, 2017.

After having fought against the Vortex in her hometown of Balgenheim, Naja Ld has come to Clint City to join La Junta. Armed with her field experience, she prepares to lead the expeditions of the city's clans against Dregn and his allies. Help her in her missions against the troops of the future to defend Clint City's freedom! Naja Ld is a legendary character who is only available by carrying out missions connected with her. To obtain this character, you must unlock her last mission before April 1st.
UM_AaaBattery Moderator URBAN MADNESS Friday 02/03/2012, 17:22
BotShot : All you have to do to unlock the mission is to sell, then buy a card or waite a bit.
UM_AaaBattery Moderator URBAN MADNESS Friday 02/03/2012, 17:23
@Hula_Daisy: You have to do the missions in order. So when you complete the first one, the second one unlocks, then the third and finally the fouth.
Piranga Colossus Time Conquers All Friday 02/03/2012, 17:53
@Botshot, I agree, it is absolutely ridiculous that UR is not fixing a major re-occuring bug.
Not as ridiculous as a Minion4D's post, but none the less, should be fixed by the staff.
Minion4D Imperator The Fourth Dimension Friday 02/03/2012, 18:28
@piranga I didnt say that I disagree with the fact that there is a problem with ld missions, there is and it does need to be fixed so players can enjoy doing them.
Infact the only reason I wrote what I did is because every time the UR staff do something to make the game fun and keep people interested, they get people like you 2 whining about how rubbish it is or how shoddy a job they did, when they probably have been working on a fix (which should be obvious) to a random problem that doesnt affect everyone. My point is you will all still play anyway so what harm is it doing? Your probably both really good players s
o why waste time by writing complaints?
HotShot888 Guru Friday 02/03/2012, 20:15
Lol Minion, I never even had the bug. Never. But others do. And it is indeed ridiculous how it's still there after few months.
Writing complaints is not wasting time, it has a purpose. If it's wasting time then making any other posts would be a waste of time as well.
chaimarians Imperator The Infinite Shoeblack Friday 02/03/2012, 20:38
Even though these missions are pretty easy I like them. They remind me of a new recruit going through basic training to get into the military. Goes very well with the card description.
Card isn't that great so the missions probably will never be that hard.
UM-Eppic Imperator URBAN MADNESS Friday 02/03/2012, 21:09
They should have her dad Amadeus as a vortex card being a prisoner in like a robot suit
EZwinningS2N Imperator Second 2 None Friday 02/03/2012, 21:32
Just a suggestion for the missions and their difficulty since they come out more then once they should rotate the difficulty of the missions ex: 1st go around they can be somewhat harder maybe 5 missions to get the ld n have a few of those missions be character missions & the 2nd time around they could be easy like they are now n then they could just rotate cuz to me i think the 1st time around should be where u truly have to earn it but thats just me
Minion4D Imperator The Fourth Dimension Friday 02/03/2012, 22:30
@Botshot fair point mate and I apologise for any offense I may have caused.

I have so many, they warrant their own extra page. :P
File Layout
These are images I have in the actual database of The Descended. Ordered as roughly as I can chronologically.
Original Latens--"Antagonists".
Laten Prototype--Their Initial Looks.
Laten Update--Newer Looks.
Kinas FaceMaker--First Version.
Kinas Profile--official profile.
Updated FaceMaker--a better Version.
FaceMaker Comparison--comparing the versions of the FaceMaker avatar.
Updated Kinas Before-After--an updated version of his appearances under both alignments.
Pre-Face Kinas Sketch Revived--after having stopped work on it, resuming a month later.
Full Kinas Before-After--poorly done sketch of him, but still done well enough to give you a general idea.
These are images which are in my Random Art "Webcomic", Miscellaneous Madness. Some are actual "comic"s, some others are layout files. Also roughly in chronological order, though it's not exact.
Kinas's Character Sheet--a comic, 138 to be more precise.
Pre-Face Kinas Partially-Finished--also a comic, this one 208.
Pre-Face Kinas Models FaceMaker--you can see it as a comic in 223. It was made for much the same purposes as the Sarge model, though his design has since changed from this. Also continues as the next comic, too, 224, which shows the best of the pre versus his post. There's another where I flip it as well.
Meet The Cast--initial version, as a comic. Later redone.
Meet The Cast Expanded--a revision. It's also my latest comic there, 249. A similar image can be found in the files, too.
Full Kinas--around step 50; not fully complete.
Full Kinas Complete--at step 97, I stopped.
Kinas's Original Look Enlarged--basically, preparation for the below:
Kinas Comparison--comparing the different drawings of Kinas.
And that's it.

The first trailer for The Hunger Games has just been released. Directed by Gary Ross, the adaptation of the first of a trilogy of Suzanne Collins novels, stars Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth and will be released March 23. I haven't been reading the books which skew to a mostly younger audience but they're a phenom - ala the Twilight novels - and I have to admit, the trailer is intriguing. Might have to catch up!

Dundee News
The latest news from the Dundee branch of Food Train.

The show was followed by a cuppa, biscuit and a chat about the show and future outings. A great afternoon was had by all and everyone is looking forward to the next outing.

Food Train Friends trip to Glendoick
Our Food Train Friends trip in March was a trip to Glendoick Garden Centre. A lovely day was had by all, a little bit of shopping then a relaxing snack and a cuppa in the restaurant. One of our friends wrote to us afterwards to say "the outings have been most enjoyable, giving me something to look forward to".

Keeping up with the promotions of GOT7's fifth mini album, 'Flight Log: Departure', JYP Entertainment released the teaser video for the new music video.
Though the video doesn't give too much away, you can appreciate the starting instrumental for the title track as the camera pans onto the seven members positioned upon a runway. Moving into formation and dancing while the music builds up to our first introduction of the vocals, Jackson, Bam Bam, Mark, Youngjae, Junior, JB, and Yugyeom glide in unison.
'Fly' is set to drop on March 21, along with two versions of the album. The members are credited as having a hand in this album with their names on more than half the tracks. This comeback will also be the stepping stone to GOT7's first solo concert that will start in Korea and lead them across the ocean to North America as they teamed up with Subkulture Entertainment for the Fly In USA tour.
With the comeback only days away, to sweeten the anticipation, JYP dropped the highlight medley as well.
I need this album almost immediately. It sounds so good and both videos have me on the edge of my seat. How did you feel about the teasers so far? We want to know!
Officially KMusic brings you all the latest news from K-Pop, so stay tuned with us!

It is weird to be thinking I am writing a summer wishlist when summer is way underway and we have been enjoying it for almost a month now but that has not deterred me from making a beauty summer wishlist as it is never too late to create a wishlist. Summer 2015 had so much potential when it started and do not get me wrong it still does but lately I had just been feeling very low and wanting a pick me up or better yet a holiday or a mini-getaway as soon as possible.
Having a mini-getaway seemed more possible than an actual holiday as so much needs to be done before that can happen and well we all only have 24 hours in a day so there is only so much that I can do. I did mention in my July goals that I wanted to have at least 2 mini trips abroad and 2 trips within the UK, when July was underway this seemed to be impossible due to actions beyond my control but here today I can not believe I have actually accomplished that. I am going on another mini break so I thought I put together 3 beauty items that I need to include or better yet wish to take with me on this getaway.
After-sun cream – it is summer so it does make sense to think about what after-sun products I should carry with me on my summer mini-getaways or even my summer vacations. I have been scouring the net and I am loving the sound of CARITA's Smoothing and Repairing After-Sun Cream for Face, who doesn't love a good cream that "corrects the effects of time and restructure mature skin after sun exposure prolonging your tan". I know boo loves it when his tan lasts a little bit longer so this would be a welcome addition for him and for me too.
UV Protecting fluid – I know most of us are worried about sun exposure and the effects that can have on our skin, no one wants to hear that they have the C word because they did not protect themselves well enough when they were in the summer. It is good to know that companies like Creme de la Mer have made a UV protecting fluid which is engineered to transform the UV light into green light to help enhance the antioxidant activity by preventing skin discolouration and unevenness. It's bad enough naturally having two skin tones so adding on skin discolouration to the mix will just dampen the mood so I am happy to have found such a lovely cream which I am recommend to all who are in my position.
Make-up (with SPF) – I am not a big makeup wearer but I do love to dabble into it now and again. During this summer my aim is to use make-up which contains SPF in it. There are so many brands out there that are making products with SPF protection included to reduce the amount of products one has to use to ensure they are protecting their skin even with the highs of summer upon us. As I said I am not great with make-up but Urban Retreat has a lot of great brands that can provide you with all makeup products that contain SPF to protect your skin and at the same time save you money.
What beauty items do you (or would you) include in your mini-getaway bag?
Do you have a summer wishlist?
Disclosure: This post written by me in collaboration with Urban Retreat, all opinions are 100% my own.

Lao Tzu is a grasp who has himself by way of many lifetimes and ever achieved his ascension. After the ascension, a soul is now not required to incarnate in a bodily kind. A research of the lifetimes of religious masters like Lao Tzu helps us to grasp what's required for this degree of true self-mastery.
Lao Tzu he was born someday between 600 and 300 BC Well-liked traditions says that he was conceived when his mom gazed upon a falling star. That is much like the tales of miraculous ideas and births of different nice religious leaders.
Lao Tzu had numerous college students and disciples throughout his lifetime. No matter he truly ever ran a faculty is open to hypothesis. Lao Tzu seems to have labored because the Keeper of the Archives for the royal courtroom as a younger man. This allowed him to learn the works of the Yellow Emperor and different Chinese language classics.
Finally Lao Tzu bored with metropolis life. Legend holds that he then lived as a hermit for close to a century. Returning to town, he was acknowledged by a guard who requested Lao Tzu to jot down a guide explaining the knowledge he had gained throughout his solitude. This was the fabled origin of the Tao Te Ching.
One of many foremost rules in Tao Te Ching is actually "non-action". This central idea is much like different religious practices similar to meditation that try and empty the thoughts of bodily consciousness and thought. The Tao Te Ching has develop into probably the most vital religious classics in Chinese language historical past.
In response to the Tao Te Ching, people are one of many 10,000 manifestations of the common supply of life. Lao Tzu is historically thought to be the founding father of Taoism. Some analyzes view Taoism as a faith particularly addressing the search for immortality. Taoism has now grown right into a pantheon of deities with Lao Tzu himself, the Jade Emperor and shut associates on the high.
As an ascended grasp, Lao Tzu is taken into account to be a grasp of the knowledge of God. He serves on the yellow ray, which is related to the crown chakra and the colour yellow. In a HeartStream from December 19, 2005, he spoke by way of the Messenger David C. Lewis:
I enfold you within the Tao of my causal physique. Sure, I'm an ascended being. Do you are feeling the radiance of my coronary heart inside the heart of my presence? You have got victory from all exterior the Tao. Within the wind you hear my voice. In my voice the wind speaks. Inside this individuals who come to obtain blessing and a sure clarification motion of their auric emanations, there resides a simplicity within the now of realizing the internal silence. And so that you see this individuals strolling the streets, coming and going with out fanfare, with out extra dialog. For they've walked in our colleges and seen some great benefits of the golden silence of being.
Study extra concerning the ascended masters and their teachings by way of our web site listed under.

For most of my life my art was just that my art . . . and then it all changed. Spiritual intentions began to take on a physical form. For me, from the ashes of tragedy rose the Phoenix of hope, love, and compassion . . . and my work changed.
It began so very simply by trading my art for knitting needles and crochet hooks. I changed the focus of my grief to knitting and crocheting prayers of love, compassion, and protection into hats. These hats were made without patterns, from scraps of yarn, and definitely one of a kind. I gave these things to anyone that wanted them, and they became lovies, snugglies, and bits of security to help hold all of us together. I had never heard of prayer shawls and had no idea that it was possible to extend love and compassion beyond my physical being. As time went on and spirits began to heal, I felt the need to keep my fingers and hands busy by returning to my work in fibers, metal, and clay. But this time I consciously added healing loving compassionate prayers and chants to everything I made. I work at making positive intentions visible in my spirit dolls, rattles, and begging bowls.
I'll begin by describing the begging bowls.
Buddhist monks hold out their bowls, with non-attachment, they accept whatever is offered. I made this bowl by thickly rolling out clay and then pressing it into a net lined mold. I purposefully made this bowl heavy to remind us of our connection to this world, to the earth, and to the clay from which it was made. Instead of a smooth interior surface I chose to push my fingers deeply into the clay making my fingerprints, my touch evident. This is to remind us of the lives we touch and the lives that touch us. When you hold one of these bowls you can feel the deeply etched marks of the nets. These nets can be symbols of how nets may hold, catch, carry, entangle, support, or simply give us something to cling to . . . or to the simple symbol of a safety net. These bowls can hold our positive intentions for ourselves, our families, our friends, and our world. We all experience moments of loss, stress, anxiety, anger, fear, peace, hope, love, compassion, and joy. May these bowls be filled with what we really need. May we find our own path of positive intention.

Ordered a $550 electric fireplace to give my mother for her birthday. Printed a photo of the item and Mom wanted it in white. Called the Customer Service number found on my gift receipt and the call went to the company who manufactures the fireplaces and sells through Sears, STACKS and STACKS. I cancelled the order with Stacks and Stacks, who put me on hold to speak with a Sears representative and confirm the money would be refunded so I can repurchase a similar item in white. I went forward and purchased a second item that night, knowing I'd receive the funds from my return in a few days.
Woke up and had an email from Sears.com confirming my order has been shipped. Why? My order should have been canceled. I called Sears Customer Service and requested information about my order status. The Customer Service Representative seemed tired, uncaring, was cutting me off as I spoke and answering what she guessed I'd say, telling me my name was not on the order when in fact it was because she did not listen for the second half of my name. The conversation was already obnoxious, the results of the conversation, however, were far more irritating.
The order had been shipped because they didn't "catch it in time." Why, then, was I told that the order had been stopped and caught the night before? When I asked this, the customer service representative responded lazily that it "just wasn't caught in time", barely exposing any information. When I pushed about what we can do to move forward and remedy the problem she said that I had to take care of it now because Sears won't handle the cancelation of an item that is through one of their separate vendors and there was nothing else she could do.
Because of this inconvenience I am out $1,000 and wondering how long it will take to receive the half that should be returned. I am waiting on an electric fireplace to be delivered so that I can return it ---pay the money in shipping and what else. I am a 25 year old student, I don't have the kind of money to deal with such an unprofessional company.
I will never again shop at Sears. The poor and LAZY attitude of their customer service, outdated seeming website and inconvenient policies I received this week have forever changed my view of that company. YUCK!
For anyone who is looking for an electric fireplace, HOME DEPOT was convenient, had a fantastic selection and much quicker FREE delivery.
Monetary Loss: $1000.
Dear Bithor85,
We sincerely apologize for the disappointment surrounding your online purchase for your mom's birthday. We can certainly understand your frustration especially thinking the order was cancelled and there's no problem getting the refund as promised. We strive to provide top notch service to each and every one of our customers, and we are sorry to see that we have fallen short of that mark in this instance. My name is Delfa B. and I'm with the Sears Cares Social Media Support team, and we would like to help. We would like to have one of our dedicated case managers contact you in order to ensure proper resolution to your issue and an end to your frustration. Please send the following information – contact #, screen name (Bithor85) and the phone # used at time of purchase to email@example.com. Again, we apologize for any trouble we have caused and we hope to speak with you soon.
Thank you,
Delfa B.

Oldest living orca 'Granny' visits over Mother's Day weekend
Killer whale 'Granny,' the 103-year-old matriarch of the Southern Resident killer whale community, last week led J-Pod up from California into the Strait of Georgia just in time for Mother's Day in the Northwest.
And at 103 this year, Granny (officially known as J2) is thought to be the oldest living orca whale.
"It was great to have all of J Pod, a family of 25 Southern Resident killer whales, return for the first time since March 3rd," said Captain Simon Pidcock of Ocean EcoVentures Whale Watching in an email exchange. (Those are his photos in the gallery above. He reminded us that the photos were shot with a telephoto lens and cropped. … So, no, they were not right on top of the whales invading their space.)
"What made the encounter extra special was Granny … leading the family and looking very healthy," he said.
Back from California
News of the return of Granny and her pod was announced Saturday by Michael Harris, executive director of Pacific Whale Watch Association (PWWA). He wrote in a news release that the pod was believed to be off the coast of California near the mouth of the Russian River just eight days before showing up in the NW.
"And then yesterday we see her cruising through Boundary Pass on her way to Bellingham. That's a distance of about 800 miles covered in a little over a week," Harris said in the release. "Not bad for a great-grandmother. This is wonderful news – just in time for Mother's Day."
Pidcock was also quoted in the release enthusing: "We were thrilled to see her. And it's mind-blowing to think that this whale is over 100 years old. She was born before the Titanicwent down. Can you imagine the things she's seen in her lifetime?"
Harris wrote:
The average lifespan of a wild orca is between 60 and 80 years, and yet the Southern Residents – despite being listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act – have some extraordinary longevity stories, including the female K7, or Lummi, who died in 2008 at the age of 98. Another Southern Resident female, L25, or Ocean Sun, is thought to be 85 years old.
The Southern Resident orca Tokitae, or Lolita, now in Miami Seaquarium, and the Northern Resident orca Corky in SeaWorld San Diego – both about 50 – are the oldest killer whales in captivity. They are the last surviving orcas captured from the region for marine parks.
"These Pacific Northwest orcas certainly have great genes," continued Harris. "I'm sure the pressures we put on them have made them resilient. They're problem solvers, survivors. We've taken away their food and trashed their homes. We've done all sorts of awful things to them, and yet here they are – and here's Granny, still out front, still running the family. It gives us hope that we can still turn this ship around and save them from this extinction slide. It shows that if we give these whales a little help, they'll do a lot with it."
So how do you know how old an orca is?
We hit up Harris for a quick explanation of how one can tell the age of an orca, especially when it was born before detailed records were being kept of these killer whale pods. Oh, and we wondered if orca years were like dog years or calendar years …
"No, it's not dog years!!" he wrote us back. "Wild orca researchers use an extrapolation scheme to estimate ages of orcas. It's a well-accepted technique used by both U.S. and Canadian scientists, based on the fact that offspring stay close to their mothers all their lives."
Here's the "scheme":

Load icon from resource
Hello everyone, I meet a problem which is quite weird.
I set up a treeview and add some rows in it. Then I want to add icons for them. It goes well when I add them by
//myicon = new QIcon("C:/Users/yz001/Documents/Qt/Learning Qt/QtToDoListV1_0/inbox.png");
However, when I add the picture into my resource and add them by
myicon = new QIcon(":/inbox.png");
They just don't show up.
Could you please me how to make it via resource?
The following is part of my code:
ui->treeView->setModel(taskModel); //set model ui->treeView->header()->hide(); //hide header ui->treeView->setRootIsDecorated(false); //hide the root //myicon = new QIcon("C:/Users/yz001/Documents/Qt/Learning Qt/QtToDoListV1_0/inbox.png"); myicon = new QIcon(":/icons/inbox.png"); QStandardItem* item_inbox = new QStandardItem(QString("Inbox")); QStandardItem* item_starred = new QStandardItem(QString("Starred")); QStandardItem* item_today = new QStandardItem(QString("Today")); QStandardItem* item_week = new QStandardItem(QString("Week")); item_inbox->setIcon(*myicon);
mrjj Qt Champions 2017
You must add a qres file to you project
Right click this and add picture to it.
Then you can use
new QIcon(":/inbox.png"); syntax
":/" is syntax for images/files in a res file.
use the first pat on how to add the qres file.
Stop at
"Finish. Then, the Designer will provide us with resource editor."
Then right click this new file (Myres) and add image to it.
Leo Z
mrjj Qt Champions 2017
it looks fine.
Right click the actual image and u can get right path directly. (Copy path)
It will be like ":/icons/inbox.png"
I did that too actually. It's kind of frustrating. Code and application
Chris Kawa Moderators
The path seems fine. Make sure you re-run qmake (Build->run qmake) after you change your resources.
On another note you've created a memory leak. Don't create QIcons on the heap, there's no point. This is enough:
QStandardItem* item_inbox = new QStandardItem(QIcon(":/icons/inbox.png"), "Inbox");
Thank you. It works after run qmake. But could you please tell me why I need to run qmake after change my resources?In fact, this is my first time to run qmake before build a app. I still don't know the role of the qmake.
Chris Kawa Moderators
qmake is the tool that generates makefiles that your build tool uses to compile the project. It also runs moc, uic, ad rcc tools to generate QObject metadata, transform .ui into .h files and transform the .qrc file into .cpp file (open the build directory to see the generated files). In most cases it runs automatically (like when you add a file to your project or edit a .ui file), but it's spotty in some situations and you need to run it manually. A good rule of thumb is to run it manually whenever you change contents of the .pro file or modify resources. In general a majority of "weird behavior" like program not seeing some changes you made in code/config can be fixed be re-running qmake.
Thank you. This information is really helpful for me:)

The Voice and Warbling!
Anyone else watching The Voice and ending up a bit stumped by the judges choices of who to put through? We were watching last night and I really felt that Tom Barnwell should have been sent through to the next stage and he wasn't. Then Kenny was thrown off and no-one stole him! What exactly are they waiting for? Unless, of course, they already have their eye on someone in the other teams who they're hoping to steal later down the line.
He should have gone through!
I know it's down to personal taste and all that but is it just me or do the judges seem to base their decision on who can perform the most vocal acrobatics and sing the loudest? And is that what good singing is all about? On a personal level I dislike all the random warbling that ruins what is already a perfectly good song unless it's occasional, fits the song and isn't totally out of tune!
These shows do seem to reveal some excellent talent but I'm often left with the feeling that he/she who sings loudest will always win through. Personally, I don't like to be shouted at when listening to music, (maybe it's an age thing?) and would rather listen to something I find enjoyable. That doesn't preclude modern music, I'm a big fan of lots of modern artists including quite a few Rappers and will normally happily listen to the kids music when they stick their iPhones in the music system.
So, no, I'm not a 'fuddy duddy' who thinks all modern music is a noise (unlike my father who hated the Beatles, Stones etc…), I just don't like warbling for the sake of showing off what you can do. That ,to me, doesn't necessarily denote a talent that should be propelled forward into the stratospheres of fame. As a wannabe singer myself (I wish!), I know only too well from my own pathetic efforts in the car that carrying a soft, controlled tune can be a lot harder than shrieking away to a rock anthem.
So, am I moaning? Hmmmm….I guess I am really. The children tell me I'm a nightmare to watch these programmes with as I get so cross when my chosen one doesn't get through. However, having been involved on one level or another with the entertainment industry for more than 35 years I do feel I have a little bit of knowledge in this area and use this as justification to rant!
All the same, it's funny how no-one who has so far won The Voice has been seen or heard from again?……Isn't it?

Managing Motherhood Stress - Part 1
Being a mom can be the most joyous and wonderful thing to ever happen to a woman. Children can be an unending source of love, pride and joy but the added responsibility that comes along with motherhood can also be an unending source of stress! In addition to the heart pounding, heavy breathing and muscle tensing that occurs from stress, it can have some more serious, longer term effects on a mom's health.
It is estimated that 60-90 percent of illnesses are caused by stress. If you allow stress to wear at you day after day and week after week, your body and your mind will both suffer. Stress can eventually overwhelm the coping ability of even the most well-adjusted person.
Your body is affected by constant stress in a variety of ways, but the results to your health are never good. Stress can cause problems with your both your digestive and your cardiovascular systems. It can also affect your immune system, which negatively affects your body's ability to deal with infection and disease, as well as injuries. Stress can affect mothers specifically in that it can make it more difficult to conceive another child, and if the stress affects the children, it has been known to stunt their growth.
Immediate physical problems associated with stress can include ulcers, acid reflux and other stomach problems. Some people experience headaches or back, neck and shoulder pain. Others can have an increase in skin outbreaks such as acne or shingles.
There are also mental affects of stress that can be as difficult or even more difficult to deal with. In the long run, stress that is never ending can change how your brain works - making it more susceptible to and less able to cope with simple everyday stressors. It can also lead to a variety of mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse and even eating disorders.
Some common short-term mental problems arising from stress can include crying jags, bursts of anger and yelling or other hypersensitive emotions. Stress can cause changes in the way you think or behave - even how you deal with your children.
Stress causes are potentially infinite and are as unique as each person that experiences them. What may seem like nothing to one person could be huge stressor to another. Whether or not someone considers something stressful depends on a variety of factors such as:
Often people assume that bad or negative things (losing a job, getting a divorce) are all that causes stress, and don't understand or may not realize that they are feeling stress because things are going so well in their life. It's important to note that oftentimes very positive life events (marriage, new job, pregnancy) can actually cause a lot of stress.
Even though stressors are individual to each person and each situation, there are certain stress triggers that are common to most mothers. Part two of this article is a list that we hope will help you recognize some possible stressors for moms.

The India Book
Essays and Translations
Andrew Schelling
1993 • 93 pp. • $10.00
Essays about the poetry, music and culture of ancient and modern India creating a context which draws this tradition into relation with contemporary American poetics and social views (such as ecology). The essays are interposed with translations from Sanskrit of erotic, Buddhist, and Hindu poetry which are enriched by the essays and also illuminate them.
"… Sanskrit has generally been ignored, or left to the Indologists. Andrew Schelling is, incredibly, the first American poet to go deep into the territory, and his translations and essays are, at last, opening the gates between experimental writing and that paradise of texts. Who knows how this will alter our own work?"
—Eliot Weinberger
"Here is a sudden opening into a little-known world of poetics and an exquisite spiritual ferocity. Schelling works with Indic linguistic traditions, the art of translation, and the roots of art. The intersection of spiritual practice and our dancing universe is provisionally mapped here. This book is a tiny sip of some elder traditions that are nourished on essential fluids. Taste it."
—Gary Snyder

Investigation launched over Ifans assault claims
The Notting Hill star attended a pre-Bafta awards party in the city on Friday night (10Feb12) with his actress girlfriend Anna Friel, and later in the evening, he reportedly invited a number of people to a bash at his suite at the St Pancras Renaissance hotel.
Theatre producer Adam Spreadbury-Maher, 30, attended the party with friends including actor Dominic Cooper and he claims Ifans became embroiled in an argument with one of his pals, before slapping him in the face several times.
The alleged incident prompted Spreadbury-Maher to alert police.
He tells the Mail on Sunday, "There were a few of us, all actors and performers. That was around 3am. We were in a hotel room with Dominic, then there was knock at the door inviting us to another party... (It was) Rhys Ifans and Anna Friel's (suite) and there were between 30 and 50 people there.
"I did not know who Rhys was but my friends told me he was a film star and host of the party. They invited us all in and were really lovely and then Rhys went mental and started on my friend. He was slapping him round the face and shoving him. It was pretty terrible."
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police says, "I can confirm police were called at 6.24am on Saturday, February 11, by a man alleging that a friend had been assaulted earlier that night... There was no report of serious injury.
"Officers attended the hotel at 10.46am and spoke with staff. Despite several attempts, we are yet to speak again with the informant or alleged victim and the investigation will remain open until we do."
A spokesperson for Ifans says, "I can't get instructions (from my client)."

Every morning as we greet the day, we're given a reminder of where the future of energy lies – the sun.
The solar energy industry is booming with an average 35% annual growth rate worldwide.
The industry is so hot it's become a $15-billion a year industry with serious investors such as Shell, General Electric, BP, Mitsubishi, Sanyo and Sharp.
And the end is nowhere in sight for solar energy – not only is its source unlimited, but it is the only energy technology whose prices have consistently dropped during the past two decades.
Not wanting to miss the boat, Canada has taken cues from Europe and, in the early 2000s, developed a joint program between Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), the home-building industry and a small Alberta town.
NRCan approached Okotoks, 30 km south of Calgary, to be part of a program focused on showing how solar energy could merge with residential communities.
After the town jumped on board, NRCan approached a local land developer, United Communities, and a homebuilder, the Sterling Group of Communities, to work on the Drake Landing Solar Community (DLSC).
"This project was to demonstrate that solar energy could be used in 'normal' homes and to show governments of all levels that with the co-operation of communities, homebuilders and land developers, solar energy can be used to heat homes," says Keith Paget, special projects manager for Sterling.
Setting a world precedent, the DLSC far outdid its European counterparts and today meets 90% of residential space heating needs from solar thermal energy – compared to the European standard of 60%.
This achievement is significant as nearly 80% of residential greenhouse gas (GHG) in Canada is produced from space and domestic hot-water heating.
As a result, the DLSC, with 52 homes (the largest solar complex in Canada), will save about five tonnes of GHG per house per year.
The success of the DLSC lies in a North American first – the Borehole Thermal Energy Storage system.
It collects solar thermal energy in the summer and stores it underground for winter use.
Meanwhile, homeowners at DLSC are realizing the benefits of this technology in their pockets as well.
Michele Morissette is one resident happy with her choice to invest in a DLSC home.
"Bills are a lot lower and the house itself is much more efficient," Morissette says. "It's been a very good experience so far and it's the most comfortable house I've lived in."
For those who don't yet have a solar-community option to move into, there are many smaller ways to implement solar energy.
Companies like EnerWorks Inc. let consumers purchase Residential Solar Water Heating Appliances that will collect solar energy and transfer it to a storage tank where it will be available to provide hot water for washing, cooking and space heating.

The Law Officer's Pocket Manual - Bloomberg BNA
This handy 4" x 6" spiral-bound manual offers examples showing how rules are...
A 6-year-old boy Pittsburgh Police stopped for trying to steal bicycles attempted to grab an officer's gun and then bit him while inside a patrol car, reports the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
After Officer Paul Abel stopped the boy at 7 p.m. Friday in the 2000 block of Straubs Lane, the boy karate-chopped him, disconnected the top of the officer's holster, and used both hands to try to grab the officer's gun, he wrote in his police report.
Officer Abel picked up the boy while he was kicking and screaming. He placed him in a patrol car. The boy then began kicking the windows of the car and, when the officer opened the rear door, lunged at the officer's hand and bit him. Because of his age, the boy has not been charged.
Chuck @ 7/16/2013 5:39 PM
The Officer should have deployed his baton and split this punk's head. I would be willing to bet that had this member of the Future Criminals of America been successful in gaining control of the gun, the Officer would have been held liable and probably fired regardless if anyone was hurt.
Capt. Crunch @ 7/16/2013 7:32 PM
He must be a very large 6 year old with mental health problems.
[email protected] @ 7/16/2013 10:41 PM
Capt.Crunch, you ever had to deal with a six year old hellcat? He doesn't have to be big or have mental health problems to do you harm or shoot you. That mindset can get you killed on the street. Maybe the sperm donors should be held accountable. Blues,Stay Safe.
Oops? @ 7/16/2013 10:58 PM
I would hate to work with someone with so little control of his/her suspects that a 6 year old nearly got control of the Officers firearm.
Capt. Crunch @ 7/17/2013 12:25 AM
Yea Bob, I did deal with a 6 year old hellcat and at that time I was also 6 years old. Just for your information I turned him into a kitten.
Nichole @ 7/17/2013 4:11 AM
Oops - Are you joking? He couldn't cuff the kid, adult handcuffs don't work on tiny arms. And you don't expect to have to wrestle a 6 year old to the ground, face down, and zip tie him just to restrain him in the back of your car to take him home to his parents.If this was an adult, I'd have to agree with you. But since it's a child, you're an idiot.
Janet Walker @ 7/17/2013 6:55 AM
He is a menace to society at an early age. What will he do next? No fear of the Law! Spare the rod, spoil the child. His parents should beat that butt!!!!!!!!!!
Really? @ 7/17/2013 8:38 AM
This kid must live in a violent and unmonitored household. That is so sad to be that young with that much bad stuff in him.. Shame on the parents..
Tim @ 7/17/2013 9:24 AM
The problem is this boy is taught to do things like that and no one will hold him accountable. He will continue to act this way
Bman @ 7/17/2013 9:32 AM
In Florida, he would have been baker acted for mental evaluation and maybe children and family services would have been contacted (especially if he was unsupervised). I have a little zip tie/string restraint that could be used on little wrists and he could have been hobbled as well. I baker acted a kid that was kicking me and my windows and I was the only person without a hobble/leg restraint that I could just hang out the door and be done with it. Not anymore.
Capt. Crunch @ 7/17/2013 9:42 AM
The boy is only 6 years old, he has his whole life a head of him. There is no such thing as a child born bad. Tim, is right when he said the child was taught that way. CPS, should get involved in this case and I bet the boy will turn out to be a good man. Give him a chance.
Troop @ 7/17/2013 11:40 AM
The future of our country in action.
Ann @ 7/22/2013 8:59 AM
Mom should have been charged with Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor. Maybe if she would have to answer to the courts she would ensure her child doesn't act like that again.

Dear Sweet Manorwood Sisters,
I've been thinking about you over the Christmas weekend and hope you have had a wonderful celebration of our Lord's birth! I also hope that you are able to find a little R&R over the next few days!
As we get ready to gear up for the new year, I came across this excellent devotion from Chuck Swindoll. He never misses a chance to challenge brothers and sisters in Christ to grow to the next level in our walk with Jesus. He is an amazing example too--he is still growing and he is well into his 70's! Will you join me in making a commitment to GROW like weeds in the new year? It won't happen unless we intentionally do it! There is no real growth until we fill ourselves with His Word and then do what it says!
Love to all-
Measuring Spiritual Growth
by Charles R. Swindoll
by Charles R. Swindoll
In this race called life, when the pressing demands of time are upon us, we need to stop and get oriented. We need to discover that the Lord is God. He will be exalted; He is with us; He is our stronghold.
Remember during your growing-up years how your mother had a specially designed wall with some pencil marks on it where, as you grew from year to year, she marked where your head reached? We had such a wall in our home. It was interesting to see how our children went through certain growth spurts at times.
On occasions, it was convicting when I came back from a trip and one of the smaller children asked, "Daddy, how much did you grow while you were away?" No, they didn't have spiritual growth in mind, but I often thought about their question in that light. They wanted to know, "Do you keep growing? When does it stop?"
God uses an infinite number of vehicles in the process of helping us grow. I do not know of any means that leads to instant growth. I've never met anyone who became instantly mature. It's a painstaking process that God takes us through, and it includes such things as waiting, failing, losing, and being misunderstood—each one calling for extra doses of perseverance. In your own spiritual growth, where are the marks on the wall of your life? Where do you stand in light of last year? Or how about the last decade?
Christian growth comes through hard-core, gutsy perseverance of applying what you hear and obeying it.

Our Fort Myers Real Estate blog's purpose is to inform, answer questions, and take comments. Fort Myers Homes and Condos are going up in price.
Pros dismiss Fort Myers area home price surge
But real estate authorities said the sharp increase likely was caused mostly by the changing market for bank-owned foreclosure homes, not an actual 17 percent increase in value.
April's median was the highest since October 2008, when it was $139,000.
The median reached an all-time high of $322,300 in December 2005 at the height of the real estate boom. The price fell sharply after that and has been bumping along in the $100,000 range for more than two years.
Meanwhile, in a separate report also issued Thursday, sales of previously occupied homes fell 0.8 percent in April to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.05 million units, the National Association of Realtors said. That's far below the 6 million homes a year that economists say represent a healthy market.
In Lee County, "the real reason it's going up so much is that the low end, the foreclosure market, that spigot has been cut off. The low end is not coming on the market and buyers have to substitute higher-priced properties," said Denny Grimes, president of Denny Grimes & Co. at Royal Shell in Fort Myers.
Brett Ellis, head of The Ellis Team with Re/Max Realty Group in Fort Myers, noted that only 45 percent of sales now are distressed properties - those taken back by lenders in foreclosure or short sales in which the bank gives up part of its debt so the house can be sold at market value.
Until recently, Ellis said, nondistressed sales had been in the minority as foreclosures flooded back onto the market.
But now competition by investors has soaked up most of the inexpensive homes, Ellis said.
"Anything under $100,000 is hard to come by," he said.
Michael Polly, Royal Shell's vice president of real estate operations in Fort Myers, said foreclosures have slowed down starting in November because of concerns about improper paperwork by attorneys. Courtesy of Fort Myers News Press

Advantage in sprucing up home decor for sellers
"Now that things are moving, people are starting to see - especially in the vacant homes - that it might be worth putting rental furniture in for three months. They have a hope of selling it," Waters said. "I had people before who said, 'I don't want to put anything in it. It's not going to sell anyway.'"
Waters - who has been furnishing, decorating and coaching sellers on how to make their homes more visually appealing for the past five years - said she saw more clients from January through March of this year than she did the second half of 2010.
Closing the deal
For some sellers, staging seems to work - and quickly.
"Sometimes we can't even finish staging a house before it's sold and these properties have been on the market for years," said Hanna Wynn Roppo, owner of Artful Staging Solutions in Naples, who estimated her business has increased by about 50 percent in the past year.
Unit O-1 in the Indies West condominiums, located at 2258 Gulf Shore Blvd. N. in Naples, hit the market last July. Wynn Roppo brought furniture and accessories into the home Feb. 11, and buyers submitted an offer two days later. It sold for $678,000 in March, according to property records.
"I think it made a big difference," seller Polly Higgins of Naples said of the staging.
Waters also has helped agents and sellers with speedy sales, including staging a vacant residence, at 154 Fourth Ave. N. in Naples, in January.
The home featured an odd floor plan with long, narrow lanai areas that had been converted to indoor rooms, said Mary Naylor, an agent with John R. Wood Realtors in Naples.
"People had a very difficult time envisioning how they would use the spaces," Naylor said. "The comments were negative in terms of the layout. After we had it (staging) done, it was like a miracle. We didn't hear it anymore." Article Courtesy of the Fort Myers News Pre
