Tips on Finding a Reliable Cash Home Buyer in Phoenix

You have said to yourself “I want to sell my house fast in Phoenix”. Anyone who has some home selling experience will readily share that it can be a little challenging.

There are all these adverts you see when you are about to exit the freeway that say “Sell your home fast for cash in Phoenix”

When we see such ads,there is only one thing that crosses our mind:the question whether we should trust these guys at all.

So are all these companies legit and is there a reliable way in which a diligent person could tell a legit fast cash home buying company from mediocrity that masquerades as real estate investors?

At this point,it is safe to assume that you have done a thorough examination of all available options and have finally decided that you want to find a home buyer who pays in cash for homes on as-is basis. Do your search diligently as this increases the chance that you will be able to find a home buying company you will feel comfortable working with.

These tricks and tips will help you in your search of a safe and reliable cash home buyer in Phoenix.

The Internet can help you avoid the worst Phoenix cash home buyers. When looking for a buyer online,let good keywords such as “How Can I Sell My Property For Cash in Phoenix” work for you. Look at the reviews on trustworthy websites and consider all of them,whether good or bad.

It is true that Craig’s list has a lot of tire kickers but the truth is if you know how to properly leverage on it,there is no reason you won’t find a good buyer to whom you may sell your Phoenix home real quick.

You didn’t expect to hear the phrase “Yellow Pages” because it probably sounds old fashioned and seems to belong to yesterday rather than today. One reason you want to give these pages a chance is that some of the oldest real estate investors in your area have their addresses and contacts there.

Your real estate agent could know a thing or two about selling homes fast and you should consider talking to them. It is possible that your agent also works as a cash home buyer,alongside his main business.

This comes last but should top this list,really. Consider asking your neighbor (when was the last time you talked to them?)if they know anyone who can buy your home. Consider asking people who have lived in Phoenix for years-they always know something about the real estate market. Hey,you might even meet new people and make friends.

With these tips,it is time to go out and get a suitable Phoenix cash home buying company or investor who can buy your home now.

How Problematic Is Religion?

Friends, if I had to nominate the major cause of conflict in the world today most probably religion would top my list. The battle for hearts and minds between the major religions of the world has raged for centuries and many have died believing they were fighting for the one true God.

Problem is that there are many gods and variations of the main ones. We have the Christian one (even catholics and protestants do not agree on theological matters as the Northern Ireland issue showed), the Muslim one, the Judaic one, the Hindu ones, the Buddhist one...the list goes on and on and on. Each god makes different claims but one claim is common to all: ours alone is the one true religion. Commonsense tells us that they can't all be right. Some people might even consider the very numbers of them is in itself highly suspicious.

The strange thing is that all of the gods being worshiped sprang into being many thousands of years ago when human civilization was at a rather primitive stage and science was barely in evidence. The world has changed remarkably since yet religious theology is basically unaltered. The fact that there is absolutely no scientific evidence to support any of the claims of religion has made little difference and billions are still deeply involved with their conflicting beliefs. Generation by generation parents indoctrinate their children and nothing changes (I myself was, for a period of five or six years, heavily caught up in religious belief and understand only too well how strongly it affects one's thinking processes and one's view of the world).

What has changed are the institutions which underpin religion. They have grown very powerful and very wealthy and they are caught in a life and death struggle with each other to gain new converts and to maintain or increase their power and wealth. They often influence Government policy and the war in Iraq can be seen as a few White Christian Nations invading and occupying a Muslim Nation. White Christian America can be seen as supporting Judaic extremists in Israel in their forty year occupation of Muslim Palestine which they are trying to steal.

How do we, in the year 2007, manage to extricate ourselves from a mindset that was prevalent 2,000 years ago? How can we make progress towards a better world when so many minds are filled with religious fantasies, ones they are prepared to die for? How do we get the influence of religion out of all Governments?

My feeling is that we'll never achieve peace while religion holds sway. What do you think?

Naj said...

Fully agree!

As long as peace-loving doesn't make up a NEW religion!

Check out my post! some religions are kinkier than others ;)

Renegade Eye said...

I'm not pleased with secularism, as a reason to go to war against Islamism. Hitchens seems to believe US policy is promoting secularism. How naive.

Daniel said...

Naj and Renegade, two of the beautiful people, ones who are trying to make the world better in spite of immense opposition and apathy!

Sometimes I think 'just walk away from the mess, leave them to it.'

People like us can't. We keep trying to make sense of life. Cheers.

Desert Peace said...

It's not religion that is the problem.... it's the people that MISpractice it.
ALL major religions teach love and tolerance,the world would be a better place if this is what was truly practiced.
Unfortunately, the church today (all of them) have nothing to do with religion anymore... it is nothing but a big business.

geoff said...

Mate, it's you who has an obsession with religion. For the rest of the world it's "take it or leave it". Except for some poor bloody Muslims of course, for whom "leaving it" means a nasty cut throat or worse.

Surely you must see this?

Why do you hide from these facts?

pissed off patricia said...

I think people justifying their actions by using religion is the real problem.

Monica Thatcher said...

Religion.. It's a funny thing, as all religions say that they are the true religion and also that the 'other' religion's followers will all go to hell or whatever their in word is for it. You are therefore, if you are religious, bound for hell anyway....I once had a long discussion with a Jehovah s Witness... I think he couldn't wait to get away! He was on about how true heaven is a place on earth and that come the battle of Armageddon only 'the righteous' will be allowed to live there. The rest will be burnt with fire and brimstone...dear oh dear.. I just agreed with him that he was right, Heaven is a place on Earth, so why doesn't he start helping make it so... Instead of frightening people into hallucinating demons. I then tried to get him to join me in convincing others to make Earth more enjoyable... He thought 'that' was fantasy!!!

betmo said...

the only way to get religion out of the way is to get folks to understand that the ENTIRE thing is man made. all of the myths and legends and monothiesisms- ALL are man made. secularism has its issues but hey- i'll take my chances with it.

M. Frederick Voorhees said...

Renegade, I totally agree with you about Hitchens. I read "god is Not Great" before I knew anything about Hitchens' views on the war, and was STUNNED when I found out how neoconservative he is with regards to the war. (In fact he has even self-defined as a neoconservative on that particular issue).

Desert Peace, I agree with you wholeheartedly. What's your proposed solution? Should we try to patch up islam & christianity, or should we scrap them and aim for a post-religious world that encourages "love and tolerance" without the promise of a dubious afterlife in exchange for our troubles? I prefer the latter.

Octavian said...

I'm very glad I found this blog. It goes along well with my exploration of my perspective of Informationalism. Very interesting.

Gracie said...

Very insightful post, Daniel

One does have to take a serious look at the religious dogma that has caused so much violence in the past and wonder. It's hard to believe that a loving God in control would want or allow these events to occur but the religious leaders always have answers for people like me that ask questions.

Having grown up in a conservative, fundamentalist church, I look back at the brainwashing and understand why so my Christians feel guilty or afraid to question their teachings. The church can be brutal. I still struggle so I appreciate articles like you have written.

Kvatch said...

My feeling is that we'll never achieve peace while religion holds sway. What do you think?

Couldn't agree more, but with the caveat that 'unbridled capitalism' is a religion of sorts.

Sunder_A said...

Please, please, I humbly beg you, in all sincere interest for fruitful, reasoned discourse--do your research! Statements such as, "Each god makes different claims but one claim is common to all: ours alone is the one true religion," and "all religions say that they are the true religion and also that the 'other' religion's followers will all go to hell or whatever their in word is for it," cause me to cringe. Because these statements are nonfactual. There are, in actuality, religions existing in the world today that explicitly teach (1) that they are not the one true religion, (2) that there is no such thing as 'the one true religion,' (3) that in all probability, Hell is a made-up place, created by religious authorities in order to threaten people, therefore (4) nobody is going there.
You are entitled to conclude, upon researching these religions, that you don't like them, that they, too, are objectionable in some way, etc. "Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but nobody is entitled to their own facts." Please base discussions, and the positions you take therein, upon facts, not fallacies that can be shown to be such by the most minimal research (i.e., Google, Wikipedia). Please also consider the possibility that, by discoursing as though the huge, powerful religions are the only ones that exist, you cede them even more power. Yours for courteous, meaningful dialogs,

Daniel said...

Dillan, please play your childish games somewhere else.

P.S. What a shame you can't use your undoubted intelligence for positive purposes. Cheers.

Eco Emi October Box!

I just bought a leftover Eco Emi box from October and I can’t wait to receive it! I had recently signed up for a subscription, but based on the time I signed up I probably won’t receive a box til either the end of November or the end of December.

Christine, the owner of Eco Emi, had a surplus of October boxes, so they’re for sale for $14.99 at the website. If you want one, click here, but do it soon! I’m sure that these will sell out fast.

Haven’t heard of Eco Emi before? Maybe you’ve heard of Birchbox? It’s the same idea, a monthly subscription service where you are sent a box full of deluxe samples. It’s probably better to describe them as “travel sized,” since sample brings to mind tiny little single-use packets. I’ve received one Birchbox so far, and they are definitely not cheap samples!

But anyway, back to Eco Emi - this service brings you a bunch of green and eco-friendly products, and not just cosmetics (like Birchbox). Take a peek at what’s been included in past boxes here. I’m super excited to receive my first box because I’m sure I’ll love everything that was included in the October box! I love autumn-y things. I will definitely be writing up a review as soon as I get it in the mail.

(image courtesy of the sassi wench)

To sum up: buy an October Eco Emi box! It’s the perfect opportunity to try it out without having to sign up for a subscription. If you do want to subscribe, you can do so here for $15 a month, and you can cancel at any time.

Have you gotten an Eco Emi box before? What do you think of them? Let me know in the comments!

**Keep in mind that you are billed when you first sign up. I’ve seen a few comments on their site saying “I’ve been deducted two payments but still don’t have a box!” Since boxes are shipped at the end of the month, if you sign up in the beginning it’s possible that you’ll be billed twice before you receive your first box. But you always receive a box for each payment you make. In plainer terms: I signed up November 3rd. I will probably not have my first box shipped till late December. I will, however, get billed again on December 3rd for January’s box. Therefore, I’ll have been billed twice before I get my first box.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog! I love any and all feedback and I read every comment.

Tao Drummers

The Tao Drummers on stage performing an encore. Apologies for the shaky camera work but the audience were very mobile at this point in the proceedings and you can't expect too much from a hand held point-and-shoot. If you want a more professional view, take a look here.

If you've never seen Japanese taiko drumming before, I can highly recommend it. I saw this jolly troupe in Seattle last night. Occasional clowns, sometimes samurai, in part anime characters, always fantastically exciting musicians, they didn't fail to entertain for a second in their two 50 minute sets. Fantastic! Am I too old to take up drumming?

Rallye Monte Carlo Historique

E on CDT
A classic photo of the E type Jaguar of Merrick and Merrick in opposite lock across the top of the Col de Turini on the 1962 MCR. They appear to have driven over the mountain in the reverse direction from La Bollène Vésubie and instead of heading down to Sospel and back to Monte Carlo, look to be going straight ahead to Peira Cava and then facing the Col de Braus and the Col de L'Orme before getting any rest.

As I write, the Monte Carlo Historique rally has just started. This year, unfortunately, I am not seated in my trusty Mini Cooper at Reims waiting for the off. There are too many other things on my "to do" list. Even so, I feel left out and I don't make a good spectator. Next year Bill and I will be back with a vengeance. 2011 is the 100th anniversary of the event and it will be a serious party. And needless to say we expect to be on the winners' podium at the end!

I received this message in my email today:

"Haloscan is being shut down on: Feb 10, 2010. The Haloscan software and hardware is physically failing and we have no choice but to discontinue the service".

Another headache! I can revert back to Blogger's system which is clunky and not very elegant but I'll lose all the accumulated comments. Alternatively I can upgrade to Halo's replacement, Echo, which is a paid service and has, apparently, all sorts of stuff I don't want, like integration with social networking sites (!). My other choice is to ditch Blogger altogether and move the entire site to WordPress. This is a move I've been considering for a long time but involves a lot of fiddling and frustration (as I've said on several occasions, I should have paid more attention to the HTML class I took back in 1998). However WordPress offers visually stunning templates so the effort may be worth it. I'll keep you posted...

Kate McGarrigle, RIP

I was saddened to learn of the passing of Kate McGarrigle yesterday at the all too youthful age of 63. While she performed throughout her life, the Canadian folk singer was particularly popular in the 70s and 80s and frequently played with her sister, Anna. So in honour of her memory, here's a clip of Kate singing with her sister, son Rufus Wainright, EmmyLou Harris and others, the lovely "Hard times come again no more".

Random Factoid: One one occasion, back in London in the 1990s, I practiced aikido with Kate's former spouse, the singer, Loudon Wainwright III.  He was passing through the city and visited the dojo. He was pretty good as I recall.

So U Think That 2?

Despite a few reservations about both their music and antics in recent years, I posted a YouTube clip of U2 a week ago as I thought it was appropriate for a New Year greeting and besides I quite liked them in the early 80s. However Ohara, Andrew and Chuck have expressed reservations about my choice and I've noted rancor and discontent expressed by other writers. A more systematic search of the interweb has revealed a very large number of individuals for whom this band represents the musical equivalent of chewing aluminium foil. I have thus compiled a list of reasons why Bono and the Boys are not everyone's favourite combo. Here are 10* that I find the most amusing:

  1. They still haven't found what they're looking for? Would it kill them to ask someone for directions?
  2. "The Edge" sounds like a disposable BIC product.
  3. In the name of love? How about in the name of God?
  4. Bono is an anagram of Nobo, Noob, and Pompous Dickhead.
  5. Bono would take a meeting with Pol Pot if it would get him on the BBC.
  6. James Joyce counseled his fellow Irishmen to adopt "silence, exile and cunning." In Bono's case, we'd have settled for the silence.
  7. The Edge actually calls himself The Edge (hahahahahahahaha).
  8. Bono’s sunglasses look like those hideous disposable things the optometrist gives you after a pupil dilation procedure.
  9. When they write lyrics like "Freedom has a scent like the top of a newborn baby's head", I’d rather take oppression.
  10. Their shameless hawking of high-end electronic products from Blackberry and Apple is inconsistent with their image of anti-enstablishment rockers.
*This compilation is from various diverse sources, my apologies for not acknowledging each one individually. Also note these views are not necessarily my own so please don't send me hate mail.

Climate Change

I don't want to sound smug but while the UK and large portions of the US have become tracts of permafrost interspersed with snowdrifts, here in Seattle the weather is unusually mild. This Camellia bush in my garden has been in flower since New Year's day -about a month earlier than usual. I like the idea that Spring is just around the corner...

Friday Music Blogging: U2

U2 are not my favourite band but this song is is a classic from their early period and it seems appropriate for the first official post of the 2010.

Do You Wish to Make Your Site Mobile Friendly? 10+ Tips to Read On

Everybody owns a Smartphone these days, which somewhat explains why mobile friendly websites are increasingly becoming the norm of the day. Several studies reveal that around 60 to 80% of web users now check websites and access their mails from their mobile devices. Quite naturally, any website design company insists on making a website mobile-friendly so that you do not lose out on this ever-increasing group of internet users who can be your prospective customers as well.

Make Your Site Mobile Friendly

If you already have a site, you can adopt some methods in order to make your site mobile friendly and thus easily accessible from smartphones and tablets. Here’s how:

Minimalism Always Works

Try simplifying the design of your site and improving its fonts so that it can be easily read on a mobile screen. Ideally, bigger fonts should be used and the most important information or message you wish to convey to your visitors should be put on top of your web page.

Use Appropriately-Sized Website Elements

In order to make a page mobile-friendly, buttons and other important elements ought to be used of a suitable size. If your buttons are smaller than usual and are therefore not capable of accommodating a fat finger, it can annoy your visitor, especially when they continue to press the wrong button.

Come up with a Mobile Sub-domain for Your Site

It is a sensible idea to design a mobile version of your website by coming up with a mobile sub-domain for it. Your main domain could be accessed from your control panel through your host provider. Creating a sub-domain is very easy; only the ‘www’ needs to be replaced with mobile on your domain name. For example, if is your domain name, your sub-domain will naturally be The sub-domain should point back to your domain name.

Make Use of Plugins

If you have a WordPress site, you are extremely lucky because this platform offers a number of plugins which can make your site mobile-friendly.

Go for Adaptive Design

This is a technique that is used by many a website design company. The benefit of an adaptive design is that it alters the display of the site automatically as per the size of the screen where it is viewed. A particular size of a web page is then generated, that is most suitable for the screen of the device to ensure superior viewing.

Responsive Design is the Key

A responsive design ensures minimum resizing and scrolling on the part of users. Even when the viewing of your site is downsized from a full screen to that of a smaller size, it does not affect the design in any way.

Cut Down on Images

Do not use too many images in your site; instead, focus on content. If images are really necessary, make sure their size is such that a mobile screen can accommodate them easily. Heavy graphics should also be avoided as it may increase website loading time for mobile viewing considerably.

Content Structures are Important Too

While writing content, special care should be taken so as to avoid additional white space. Readers may find it annoying to read content crowded with white space because of the small size of the mobile screen.

Say No to Flash

Flash is not supported by all mobile technologies. Thus, if your site is high on Flash, some users may face loading issues while trying to access it. If you cannot do without it, use it minimally at least.

Ensure Ease of Navigation

A site which can be navigated easily when accessed via Smartphones appeals more to web users.

Stay Away from Hover Elements

Hover elements are recommended when a site is to be primarily viewed from a desktop but they are a strict no-no when it comes to mobile viewing. This is because in the latter case, they can get lost easily. For this reason, you should opt for clickable elements rather than hover ones.

Index Your Site for Mobile Browsing

A mobile site map ought to be created for your site in order to enable Google as well as other search engines to index your mobile web page easily.

Adopting these techniques can help you optimize your website for mobile-viewing. If you are not sure of accomplishing all these flawlessly, you can hire a professional website design company for the purpose.

The People vs. Common Sense

Jesse: Everybody loses in this one, huh?

So true, Hubbard, so true. And you know who loses the most, and in the most tragic way? The audience.

If I were at all a rational, normal person, I'd watch an ABC Daytime show once again slaughter the principles of the American legal system and I'd say to myself, "Self, there is no use getting irritated at how ridiculously laughable this portrayal of court is. Do something fun during these scenes instead, like muting the television and then inventing hilariously bad dialogue that would probably be better than the show's actual dialogue! Although that may lead you to then wondering why you're a soap blogger and not a soap writer, and you may begin to weep, but even that is better than hysterically shouting 'Why don't you watch one of the eleventy twelve episodes of Law & Order airing right this second to see what the hell a trial is supposed to be like you hacks?!' at your television".

But I am not at all rational and so, once again, I have to ask: why can't ABC hire some sort of consultant to teach them the intricacies of the legal system? Or at the very least, hire an intern who can look this stuff up on Wikipedia?

  • Witnesses don't just hang out and watch the trial unfold
  • Testimony usually consists of something more than rumor-mongering and stories that people heard from a friend of a friend of a friend
  • Witnesses don't get called randomly by the ADA and then report to court immediately to give testimony that hasn't been gone over with said ADA a million times over already
  • And also, witnesses don't get to decide when they testify!
  • Witnesses don't get to say things like, "We're done here" at the end of their testimony, Zach
  • And if a witness did say something like that, I don't think the judge would be all, "This surly witness is right. Let's take a recess. Back in a few, y'all!"
  • Prosecutors don't look speak into the camera and address people who have their own upcoming trials, what the hell!
  • Trials generally last longer than a game of seven minutes in heaven

I hate this show.

So Adam was acquitted on all counts based on diminished capacity, which we all knew would happen. Making Adam Stuart's murderer was the only way for Pratt to have a major character, and not some random extra, be guilty and drugging him was the only way for Pratt to make him innocent legally. The man likes to eat his cake and have it, too, and I hope he chokes on it.

(That reads more violent and angry than I meant it...ABC Daytime is corrupting me!)

David Canary continues to be amazing and is the only reason that I can't write this story off as an unmitigated failure in all possible ways; it's merely an unmitigated failure in most ways. His performances of late have been genius and his addressing the court (again, what the hell!) to talk about the guilt he feels, and his monologue at Stuart's grave were fantastic. There needs to be a David Canary Appreciation Day.

But, uh, speaking of the scene at Stuart's grave, when Adam reminisced about picking out Christmas trees with Stuart, and then JR chimed in with his own memories? I was delighted by what a sweet scene it was and then all of a sudden 50 MPH gusts of ASSHOLE flew in and shot it all to hell to bitch and moan about how Annie is the most dangerous human being to ever live.

What really concerned me about this scene, other than how blatantly inappropriate it was for Ryan to be lurking at a cemetery when a guilt-ridden and heartbroken man spoke to his twin's grave, was how fast Ryan manages to travel around town! He was at the casino and then talking to Erica and then at the cemetery like it was nothing! He's a fucking poltergeist who needn't obey the laws of physics! Like he wasn't terrifying enough already!

Zach: I'm going to destroy and erase the last four years so Kendall has nothing to come home to.

It goes without saying that the latter part of that sentence got a hearty eyeroll on my end, and also a heavy, angry sigh at how the writers won't even let the audience enjoy the last few weeks that a hugely popular couple has together on this show by giving them a little bit of happiness, but the first part is very attractive. Who wouldn't love a Carly Jacks approved Go-Back and Re-Do of the past four years?! It would be awesome.

Lastly, a quick note on the new Colby: she over-enunciates like CRAZY and it is distracting. Luckily, it's not distracting me from anything good, but still! I'm not sure what it is about this role that makes it impossible for the show to cast someone capable of acting like a human being (Ambyr Childers did grow on me, but man, was her start on the show rough).

Okay, that wasn't lastly at all, actually, because I have a question. The actor playing Damon has been put on contract, but the actress playing Bailey is still recurring. What does this mean?! Just kidding, I'm not interested in that at all.

You ladies really cheer me up. Just when I think I am the only person with any sense watching these shows I come here and remember it is the people running and writing these shows that have no sense. I wish you were a soap writer. What about one of these new internet soaps? I would watch it!

Aww! Thanks so much, LauraBB. Perhaps that will be our next step in our plans for world domination...

Was it just me, or did none of today's dialogue make sense? IA this show is a train wreck hot mess & I'm only hanging around to finally get my favorite couple back together, which I may be delusional because I'm still not altogether sure it is going to happen. I cannot fathom why this turkey of a show would continue keeping the Slaters apart with only days left- bleeding viewers left & right & they still don't get it! It's mind-boggling! WTF are they smoking? When I get my Zen reunion, I will say adios & tho' I'll miss my couple, I will not miss this crap.

Villains and Vigilantes

Tagged: Game

Role Playing Game (1979). Fantasy Games Unlimited (FGU). Designed by Jeff Dee, Jack Herman.

Villains and Vigilantes was the most popular of the early Superhero themed RPGs, despite its inclusion of several design features that now seem questionable. Notably, characters are assigned a random assortment of Superpowers, making it difficult for players to create a compelling rationale for their abilities, and players' everyday selves become the "secret identities" of their Superhero personas. The tone of the game is also very combat-oriented, reflecting its influences in 1960s Comics. While the second edition (1982 FGU) designed by Jeff Dee, Jack Herman improves the mechanics significantly, these problems remain. Legal disputes between the designers and Fantasy Games Unlimited led to the release of what is essentially the third edition under a different name: Living Legends (1999 Unigames) designed by Jeff Dee, Jack Herman. An official third edition was released by Monkey House Games in 2010.

Related works: Villains and Vigilantes (1986-1987) is a four-issue Comics series based on the events of the introductory adventure Crisis at Crusader Citadel (1982 FGU) designed by Jeff Dee, Jack Herman. The series was published by Eclipse Comics and written by Jack Herman. [NT]

Word on the Street: “EAT CRAB”

Friday, October 14th, 2016

From the Joe Dimaggio Building:

“What I don’t understand, is why you ask where I’ve gone. I just did a Mr. Coffee commercial, I’m a spokesman for the Bowery Savings Bank and I haven’t gone anywhere!”

Ocean Beach Traffic: There’s Something Fishy About This Trailer

Crab pots? Crab traps? Lobster? I don’t know the biz.

I think you can rent these near China Beach?

Anyway, never seen this, in all my years, you know, way out west near Ocean Beach instead of near the fleet at Fishermans Wharf

Stand-Up Paddle Boarder Tends His Crab Pots Outside of the Golden Gate

Monday, December 22nd, 2014

Here are the rules to the game:

7J7C0732 copy

Dude was about a quarter mile away from the beaches of northwest Frisco.

IMO, this fellow (who was, granted, west of the Golden Gate) was in San Francisco Bay. But the rules for dungeness crab trapping seem to indicate that he was _outside_ of SF Bay. Ergo, this hobby is A-OK.

News to me…

Family Fun for the Holidays: Going Crabbing at Torpedo Wharf Under the Golden Gate Bridge for Free – No Permits Required

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

Why, this bucolic scene almost looks like Mayberry, R.F.D., excepting for the famous bridge up high.

Check it:

You can legally fish or crab without a license at Torpedo Wharf at the west end of Crissy Field. Look for posted regulations.”

Them’s crabbers down there, that’s what they are, those West End girls and boys

It’s easy to get started.

The Mean Little Crabs of San Francisco County are Just Waiting to Pinch You – Pinch, Pinch, Pinch!

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010

Take a look here to see why you shouldn’t go poking around rocky crevices near the waters of San Francisco.

Can you see this critter’s left eye?

Whatever you do, be careful. You don’t want to end up starring in a crab pinch video, right?

The Happy Jumping Sea Lions of San Francisco Bay

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Wasn’t sure what this critter was at first, but it sure seemed happy jumping around by the weekend anglers at Piers 30 / 32, site of the recent AVP Pro Beach Volleyball event.

Thought it could have been a dolphin. Oh well, maybe next time.

Our only wish, to catch a fish, so juicy sweet. Click to expand:

Pier fishing fever – catch it!

License-Free Crabbing Under the Golden Gate Bridge at the Presidio’s Torpedo Wharf

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Here’s what you do – you get your stuff, head on over to the Presidio‘s Torpedo Wharf (fka the U.S. Navy Pier, fka the Fort Point Mine Depot) then go get yourself some Rock Crab (Cancer Aniennarius). License? You don’t need no stinking license.

Here’s your checklist. But make sure you don’t pick up any Dungeness Crab “by mistake.” And be on the lookout for freighters off-loading people from other countries sans documentation. That happened a bit sometimes at the Torpedo, before 9-11.

Join in the fun – strangers welcomed with open arms. There’s enough crab and fish for all:

Forlorn, 2.5 Yelp-Starred Western Addition Taco Bell/KFC is Now Beloved, 4.5-Starred JANE THE BAKERY

Monday, September 25th, 2017

Can you see the fast food traces, like the blackened KFC Bucket on the left or the Taco Bell bell on the awning on the right?

Anyway, it’s JANE THE BAKERY now. (It’s just like ALICE THE RADIO STATION or TOAD THE WET SPROCKET, non? And it reminds me of SPORK, which wore its Valencia Street Taco Bell heritage proudly, back in the day.)

Hi, I am back

Its been a long time since I sit down to post something on my blog. I took a hiatus but now I am back and in my crafty creation mode. I have made 2 new cards this year but I want to share the second one. They were both silimar pop up cards. This particular one I made for my cousin's girlfriend's birthday recently.

She simply loved it according to him and its found a special place with her pretties. I was happy to hear that I was worried she wasn't going to like it. But it has her favor thing in it, a puppy dog so I was sure she would like that at least.

I am going to try to start posting once a week (or more) depending on what project I am working on at the time. Tomorrow I am hoping to get to work on the St Patty's day card I have in mind for some friends.

With that all said....until next time.....

Reading and Judging

GBA books read to date: 6

I'm really enjoying reading the entries for Dan Poynter's Global eBook Awards. Judging is a little harder--like I've said before, I really don't like ratings. Luckily the process is simplified with a table of factors to consider. Each item is scored on a scale of 1-10, with space for comments too. And everything starts at 10, so it's quite simple to knock points off whenever I feel a complaint coming on. The scores are summed and a nice little comment reminds us if we gave 10/10 for everything this must surely be the best book ever, so score carefully. The result is then multiplied by 7 (?) with the reminder to recheck if the result's over 1,000. So far I've scored two books at over 900. Now I just need to decide if I should submit them as finalists. But I haven't read everything in a category yet, so I'll see what else I find.

Now back to the washing and cleaning, real life intervening on my reading life. Perhaps I should eat some lunch too.

You have a fabulous blog! I’m an author and illustrator and I made some awards to give to fellow bloggers whose sites I enjoy. I want to award you with the Creative Blog Award for all the hard work you do!

Go to and pick up your award.

Sheila, today must be your lucky day, as I have a Surprise for YOU!

That sounds like a fair way of rating. It shouldn't end up as a popularity contest that way.

Mountains, Fisherman, and a Legend

One of the guest artists at the workshop was

John Seerey-Lester. He is a legend among

wildlife artists. He is from Manchester, England,

and now lives in Florida. He is known for his

big game paintings of African and North American

wildlife. I was able to watch him do a demonstration,

and did this sketch of the artist.

This is a watercolor of the Tetons that I

added to the sketchbook. Mountains,

One of the things I was very excited to get

to witness was a fly fisherman in one of the

rivers. I had always wanted to paint one, but

had never had the chance to photograph one.

And you know how everyone frowns on using

someone else's photo! So, here is a watercolor

sketch of one of my photos that I took along

Horse Creek outside of Dubois. I even asked the

man's permission!
The poem at the bottom says:

"There is not in the wide world

a valley so sweet

As that vale in whose bosom

the bright waters meet"

Thomas Moore

I’m Britne and I am originally from Baltimore, MD.  I have lived in Fort Walton Beach for about a year now.  I moved here to be with my husband who currently works for the military.

I am a energetic person who is always looking for the beautiful light in life and wanting to have my camera there to catch it.

I grew up in Louisiana and Mississippi. Both were awesome places for me as a kid. Back then we had so much freedom and space to roam.  I have been in Florida 13 years, I left for a couple of years and came back, after living here it’s difficult to leave for too long.

I love how photography can be a social or solitary endeavor.  Most of all I’d have to say my favorite thing about photography is the people I get to meet.

Laura Shields

I was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas but raised in Northeastern Oklahoma.  I’ve been married for 25 years this coming year, with 1 child who will be 24 and 1 grand child who is 3.

I love God, my family, photography, and music.  We love the beach life and that is why we moved here a year ago.

Hi I’m Anneliese, everyone calls me Anna (pronounced like Princess Anna from Frozen). I am a wedding and portrait photographer along the Emerald Coast!

I love creating art out of candid moments and capturing emotion that radiates through my images. Being in the modeling industry for seven years has taught me a lot about being in front of the camera and about being behind it. I enjoy using my unique perspective to bring editorial vibes to your portrait session.

Powergrid to revamp power infrastructure in NE

Rituraj Borthakur
 GUWAHATI, July 16 – The Power Grid Corporation of India Limited is implementing a Rs 8,300-crore project jointly funded by the World Bank and Central Government to revamp the transmission and distribution network in the northeastern region.

The work in Arunachal Pradesh will be entirely funded by the Central Government. In the other six states, the funding pattern will be 50:50 between the Centre and the World Bank, a top Powergrid official told The Assam Tribune.

Called the North East Region Power System Improvement Plan, the project envisages setting up of three substations in Guwahati, including one in Amingaon, another near Dr B Borooah Cancer Institute and the third at Bhangagarh.

As the states do not have the technical expertise, the Central Government has asked the Powergrid to execute the project. It is a five-year project, but we expect to complete it by three/four years. Technical work on the ground has already begun, the official said.

As part of the project, old distribution lines will be either strengthened or replaced, depending on their condition. New substations will be set up and transformers upgraded.

We feel that once the project is executed, there would not be any infrastructural hiccups for the next twenty years. It would be a boost to the industry sector, the official said, adding that the transmission and distribution losses would also be minimized by the project.

There has been a lot of hue and cry of late following electrocution of people by damaged old power supply lines, especially in Guwahati city.

Assam has miserably failed to check the aggregate technical and commercial losses which is around 29 per cent today. Much of it has been blamed on the ageing distribution lines. But Powergrid officials said half of it is incurred due to theft.

The peak power demand in the State currently is around 1,500 MW. However, its own generation capacity is only around 250 MW a day.

Living Green with Kids

We want the best for our kids. As parents, we want our kids to grow up healthy, have a good education, achieve their dreams, understand the value of family and friendships and ultimately live the best life possible. I do not mean our kids have to live a kush life in a bubble. They should know the value of hard work and responsibility, understand respect and what it means to be a part of this world. In that, it is our duty to teach them and give them the tools to make it a better world. A world they can pass down to their children, their children’s children and so on. It sounds cliche, but lets face it…that’s how it goes down.

So, how do we teach them the fundamentals of preserving this planet? It’s hard enough for adults to remember to be responsible and practice green initiatives, but when we do, our children follow in our footsteps.

Here are a few easy things (with practice) that you and your kids can do together:

1. Teach the importance of conserving water. When your children brush their teeth or wash their hands teach them to turn off the water in between brushing or scrubbing. Parents – practice too.

2. Grow a garden or plant a tree. Kids love to be outside and this is an easy way to get them interested in sustainability and how to care for the Earth. Planting a tree produces cleaner air. Did you know one tree can absorb 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.

3. Use recyclable grocery bags. Keep them in the car so you’re never without. If you find your kids have to constantly remind you to take in the bags reward them with a special treat from the store.

4. Recycle. Make a game out of it for your kids. Have them help you sort. If one person recycled all their newspaper a year, they could save about 250,000,000 trees! Imagine if we all did even just a little bit. On average Americans use 2,500,000 plastic bottles every hour of which most are thrown away along with 25,000,000,000 styrofoam coffee cups every year! Despicable.

5. Turn off the lights. You can make a game out of this too. Let the race begin. See how quick everyone can turn off all the lights before leaving the house. Save the energy…no need to keep that light on in the bathroom if you’re not in there.

6. Turn those recyclables into toys. Try putting some dry beans in a milk jug – you have a maraca. Turn a cardboard box into a space ship (see awesome rocket ship above). There are a million things you can do. It’s amazing how creative kids are and what they’ll come up with.

7. No more wrapping paper. Use a paper bag or recycled paper to wrap presents. Then have your kids paint or draw on the paper. They will love decorating it. It’ll certainly be the most unique wrap job there!

8. Have a toy swap. Kids get tired of their toys…and fast. Why buy more (especially when you can save a buck these days) when you can swap them out with other friends, family or neighbors.

9. Walk. Get outside, explore. Not only are you teaching your children to exercise more, enjoy the outdoors, but it’s just about the most environmentally friendly way to get from A to B.

10. Teach your children well. Kids do what you do, they follow our examples. There is no better way to teach your children how to protect this Earth than to show by example and live responsibly.

Obama Administration gets Tough on BPA

Research shows BPA exposure damages intestines; U.S. senators propose legislation to eliminate BPA from children's products

MCT News Service
In the face of research showing BPA's harmful effects, many people are switching to BPA-free or glass baby bottles, shown here.
Bisphenol-A, casually known as BPA, is a plastics chemical that has gotten much attention in recent years for its suspected harmful effects on health. Many plastic water bottles, can linings, baby bottles and other products contain BPA, and for the first time, research has shown that BPA has negative effects on the intestines.

A study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy Sciences Journal showed BPA causes damage to the intestines, the first organ BPA meets after ingestion. According to the research, when rats were exposed to doses of BPA that were 10 times less than the amount thought to be safe for humans, their intestinal linings were damaged. The researchers are from the National Institute of Agronomic Research in Toulouse, France, according to the AFP (Agence France-Presse) newswire.

This damage, known as poor intestinal permeability or leaky gut syndrome, makes it more difficult for water and other nutrients to be absorbed by the body. In addition, infant rats who were exposed to BPA while in the uterus and through feeding had increased risks of having intestinal inflammation as adults. Inflammation can make it easier for harmful substances, such as bacteria, to come into the intestines and can also result in poor immune system function, according to a related story from

In the face of suspicions about BPA's harmful impact, Sens. Charles Schumer and Kristen Gillibrand, both of New York, are calling for the elimination of BPA from all container linings that hold foods for infants and toddlers in the BPA-Free Kids Act, according to Medical News Today. Schumer and Gillibrand specifically mentioned a study published in December from Consumer Reports, showing almost all of the 19 name-brand foods that were examined had some level of BPA, including some products labeled "BPA-free."

BPA is thought to act like the hormone estrogen when it enters the body, possibly negatively impacting reproductive and neural development, according to the Medical News Today article. BPA is used in many other products, including CDs, DVDs and glasses lenses, and also makes plastics clear and resistant to breaks. The federal guideline right now is 50 micrograms of BPA per kilogram of body weight, according to Medical News Today, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not officially established how much daily exposure to BPA is safe for humans.

However, many manufacturers and lawmakers have taken steps to eliminate BPA from their products. In June 2008, Canada outlawed the use of BPA in creating plastic baby bottles, according to Medical News Today, and in May, six manufacturers of plastic baby bottles stopped using BPA in their products. And as of Jan. 1, Minnesota outlawed the use of BPA in baby bottles and sippy cups for babies and young children, according to DailyFinance.

Beautiful Winter

This year has flown by so quickly, can you believe its July already. It dawned on me that soon it will be Summer, the weather will be unbearably hot and the nights will be mosquito infested. I want to really enjoy what is left of Winter - the chill in the air won't be there for much longer. Soon layering will be a thing of the past, sleeping in will be close to impossible. No more complaining about the about the cold; instead I will layer and  keep the red cappuccinos close by.

About my hair
I attempted the high afro puff - I think I just managed a puff. Because of the very coarse texture of my 4c hair I couldn't get the puff to be as high as I wanted. I have been keeping my hair moisturized with deep conditioning treatments every two weeks, for locking in the moisture I use sheer butter and black castor oil. I have done minimal protective styling during this winter - my hair doesn't respond well to weeks upon weeks of braids.

The look I am sharing today consists of two of my favorite things; well fitting bustiers and high waist jeans.

The Lotus Seven Series IV
press materials and story as told by John Robinson

Lotus Seven Series IV Press Kit, 11 March 1970

John Robinson:

The designer for the Series IV was a gentleman called David Baldwin. Alan Barrett made the moulds for the bodywork and then the bodywork itself, and I was involved with the mechanical side. Arch Motors made the chassis for the Lotus Seven Series IV.

We worked in a large lock-up garage across the road from the main factory and we started with a Series 3 in the first place.

With known problems with the suspension on the Series 3, we first looked at the front suspension, as the bump steer was very bad i.e. 3/4" toe out on full droop of the suspension, going to 1" toe-in on full bump. This was almost all removed by raising the rack and pinion up by around 2" and at the ball joint end replacing the joints with a racing type adjustable joint.

The rear suspension was a different matter and I can remember quite clearly the day I re-learned how to weld. On the Series 3 there was an 'A' frame that located the axle, this David had re-designed for the Series 4 to the 2-piece system i.e. a small "A" and a separate link. I made up the required jig for these frames and proceeded to make the frames. I went and fitted them on the car and checked that the suspension worked, and called David to check that it was installed how he had designed it. He promptly jumped into the car and took the car to the test track with me as passenger, where he proceeded to drive the car far quicker than I had ever been before.

When we finally arrived back at the workshop with me still shaking at the thought of the welds on the suspension that I had made. I rang across to the fabrication workshop where I made immediate plans for later that day to learn how to weld properly, as that was the first time I had ever made anything that complicated!

Other modifications were tried on the Series 3 and my wife and I would go off with the car most nights and drive for 100 miles to test the mods. My aunt in Bournemouth (Dorset, U.K.) was not surprised to see us drop in for a cup of tea before returning home, some 300 miles round trip on a Sunday.

As mentioned previously, the fabrication of the Series 4 took about 2 years to complete and I was involved in setting up the production in the main factory. This was when I was approached by Tim Goss.

Homemade Baby Food

If you have a wee one it's worth a try to make your own baby food.  I find that a little work goes a long way in this department.

Pick your vegetable: Peas, Green Beans, Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato, Carrot
Pick your fruit: Apples, Pear, Peaches, Banana, Berries, Avocado, Mango
I have made all of these into baby food and also mixed the veggie and fruit together.  I sometimes add organic rice cereal or oatmeal to the batches.  Example: Organic Frozen Peas- blanch in boiling water for 2 minutes, add to blender with a little breast milk, or pea water, and puree until you reach desired consistency.  For harder vegetables and fruit you'll need to boil longer.
I freeze small portions into these baby cubes.  Haddie will usually down 2 cubes a meal.  If you don't want to invest in any special containers, small jelly jars work well and ice cube trays.  It takes me about 20 minutes to prepare 4 different types of baby food that she'll eat from all week.

MP3: Eternal Summers – You Kill

0 Posted by - 07/23/2012 - One Timer

Eternal Summers is a local band for me and also not one, at the same time. Strange statement, you say? Well, I spent the first 20 years of my life in a small one horse town an hour or two away from a couple “bigger” towns. One was Roanoke, VA – that’s where Eternal Summers is from. They are the only “local” band I’ve ever known that isn’t in the country music spectrum to have national recognition. I don’t actually live there anymore, but they are still only a handful of hours away.

“You Kill” is beautiful pop rock, plain and simple. The vocals are obviously noteworthy from the start, and the band itself sounds extremely tight on this track. It’s indie rock at it’s core, but it also sheds the stereotype of that exterior a bit.

The industrial hum of the guitar waiting in the wings in the verses makes for an interesting dynamic and the drumming here is second to none, combining together to prove once again that a beat doesn’t have to be complicated. When it sounds like you’re giving it your all and actually enjoying it…that sound being produced makes the listener wanna bob their head or stomp their feet in rhythm.

Eternal Summers are dropping a brand new album tomorrow titled Correct Behavior. You can find it at many fine retailers, and you can also stream it right now on Hype Machine.

Download “You Kill” below and check out Eternal Summers on Facebook.

Flea Market Flip on HGTV

This is such a fun television show hosted by Lara Spencer, who is a wonderful designer/antiquer and in general a really fun person.

As the contestants walk thru the aisles of Flea Markets, I see the furniture of yesteryear.  The drop leaf tables, the uncomfortable chairs, the dreaded BROWN furniture.  It seems so dated to me.  Really folks, I don't ever think it's coming back although my mother in law gave it to me thinking it was pure gold.  It's antique! she would say.  I remember when we were moving to Fl in the 80's we sold our drop leaf table et al to a friend and they told us the table collapsed...face it.

Once in a while you can get something interesting.  I have been to Brimfield a few times and in my eyes all I see is junk and a lot of work.  If you're willing to bend, scrape and fight with reupholstering be my guest.  Sometimes for me, at age 67 and counting, it just so much easier to go to a tag sale and buy something cool and usable right now.

I had been redecorating my granddaughters room when I was in Darien, Ct. so I dragged my friends to a local tag sale, and look what I got!  A down filled divan just fit for a prima dona. That one special piece that makes a room.  No bending, no scraping, no reupholstering..just a little wipe down here and there.

So anyway, my point is yes Flea Markets are fun, but Tag sales?....oh my.  What you can get.
AND btw, that dressing table and mirror $4.00, mirror $10 and divan, $90.  Screen is from TJX still a good price, $59.99.
