RazorFine Presents – Booster Gold
in Comics
Welcome to the second issue of RazorFine Presents Comic Spotlight as we take a look at comic heroes, villians, and everything in between. This week we examine a screw-up from the future who stole equipment and knowledge and traveled back in time to the 20th Century to become "the greatest hero the world has never known" – Booster Gold.
Name: Michale Jon Carter
1st Appearance: Booster Gold issue #1 (Vol. 1, 1986)
Currently apearing: Booster Gold (Vol. 2, ongoing series)
Created by Dan Jurgens, Booster Gold is about as far from a model hero as you can get. A self-promoting thief from the future who saves the day to win adulation and glory more than do the right thing has come quite a long way since his first appearance back in 1986.
The Greatest Hero the World
Has Never Known
Michael Jon Carter was a famous football star in the 25th Century before being banned for betting on his own games. Taking up a job as a night watchman in the Metropolis Space Museum he studied the past and with the help of a security robot named Skeets stole a uniform and various super-hero equipment including a Legion of Super-Heroes flight ring and Brainiac 5's force-field belt. "Borrowing" Rip Hunter's time machine Carter and Skeets journeyed back to the 20th Century where he reinvented himself as the hero "Booster Gold."
Booster Gold remained in modern day Metropolis, bringing him often into conflict with Superman, and used his celebrity and knowledge of the future to build himself a sizable fortune (though many heroes protested against his commercial deals, merchandising, and celebrity status). In the late 80's Booster became a cornerstone of Keith Giffen's run of Justice League International. Booster fit right in with Guy Gardner, Captain Atom, Fire and Ice, and formed a strong friendship with the Blue Beetle (together the two found countless ways to get into trouble including opening a JLI resort on the living island of Kooey Kooey Kooey).
Life after the Justice League, including founding The Conglomerate and a short stint as part of a new team known (or best forgotten) as Extreme Justice, wasn't too bright for our hero, and at one point he even hung up his costume.
Booster reemerged during Infinite Crisis, and played a key role in DC's year-long event 52 by saving the newly created DC Multiverse.
In his new ongoing series Booster Gold accepts a job from Rip Hunter to maintain his reputation as a super-hero failure in order to use his powers secretly to help Hunter save the Multiverse from potential time anomalies and villains who will prey on them and truly become "the greatest hero the world has never known."
Booster Gold earned his own episode "The Greatest Story Never Told" on Justice League Unlimited (read the full review).
Here's a scene with Booster and Skeets. This episode is an almost perfect portrayal of the early Booster Gold as his attempts at acknowledgment and celebrity only lead to dead-ends (and people constantly thanking Green Lantern for his actions). And when he finally does save the world, of course, no one ever knows. Classic.
For me Booster Gold was a staple of Giffen's mad and hilarious run on Justice League and I'm so happy that he's earned himself a new series to promote his own brand of super-heroing. For more on our hero check out Justice League: A New Beginning, Formerly Known as the Justice League and I Can't Believe It's Not the Justice League
, and all four volumes of 52, all currently available in trade paperback. You can also check out "The Official Booster Gold Chronology" to find other appearances by our hero.

Every once in awhile you run across a film in the DVD aisle and say to yourself, "What is that?" That's how I came across Confidence. Released in theaters in 2003 the film takes a look at a group of con artists whose latest con has gone south and their last ditch attempt to rectify the situation, get out from behind the thumb of a crime boss, and perform the biggest con of their lives.
Custom Rating
"Tommy Suits always said 'a confidence game is like putting on a play where everyone knows their part: the inside man, the roper, the shills, everyone that is, except for the mark.'"
Jake Vig (Edward Burns) and his team of con men have just pulled off another successful con. Everything should be gravy, but then the other shoe drops. It turns out the money they've taken belongs to an unforgiving crime boss (Dustin Hoffman), and then, when one of the team ends up dead (Louis Lombardi), they realize they have stepped into a whole new league.
Now Jake, Gordo (Paul Giamatti), and Miles (Brian Van Holt) must perform a job for the King (Hoffman), trust a mysterious woman (Rachel Weisz), stay ahead of the Federal Agent (Andy Garcia) on their tail who has turned his crooked cop buddies (Luis Guzman, Donal Logue) and try not to get killed or, worse yet, caught.
The film is well cast and these talented actors have fun working together and off of each other. Hoffman's casting as a sociopathic crime boss is a little odd (and more than a little over the top) but it is kinda fun to see him in such a different role. Everyone else fits their roles well and Burns and Weisz pull-off a nice mixture of chemistry and animosity.
As a connoiseur of heist and grift films I enjoyed Confidence. It's not on the level of the Ocean's Eleven films, but with such a star-studded cast, some nice camera work, and some good twist and turns it can make for a fun couple of hours. The disc includes enough extras for you to give this one a serious look,

It is time to end the tyranny of open-concept inside design. Even as plans in elite houses continued to open up all through the Twenties, the common house retained its interior walls. If you're accomplished designing your dream house, you'll be able to export the plans in codecs architects, contractors and construction staff can use to carry your creation to life.
Following the 10 Step Course, I counsel moving on to "Methods to Use Colour Like a Professional", adopted by "Learn how to Work with Interior Design Kinds Like a Professional", then "Methods to Use Lighting Design to Transform your Residence", and finally "Design is within the Details".
Grant Pierrus brings you Interior Model Hunter, the award-profitable London based luxury inside design and lifestyle weblog dedicated to providing you with design and life-style inspiration. With RoomSketcher you get an interactive ground plan which you could edit on-line.
You'll be able to create your personal look by selecting from furniture and equipment sold by Hutch's companions or select from an inventory of completed designs called filters" to superimpose a specific look onto your room, full with a value listing of the furnishings used.
However, all the contractors, skilled architects and designers we talked to advised us they are extraordinarily wary of selfmade plans. After you've got checked out, you may add pictures of your room and share specifics about your project, including funds, room measurements, and what gadgets you intend to keep.

Since 2012, the University has augmented its print edition of the Annual Report with a digital distribution. While online, it maintains the look and feel of a conventional physical magazine, complete with pages that "flip." Some features include embedded video links.
The 2015 Annual Report, themed "This is Who We Are," offers a comprehensive look at 2015, highlighting student and faculty accomplishments and TAMIU's role in building legacies, cultivating leadership, inspiring innovation and forging partnerships.
TAMIU president Dr. Ray Keck said the Report underscores what TAMIU does.
"The Report helps establish who we are: achievers, explorers and leaders -- but it also defines what we do: we achieve greatness, we challenge ourselves, we engage community, we lead daily and we give back. Seeing all that shared in the space of a year is an impressive offering that we're excited to share with those we serve," Dr. Keck said.
For example, readers will learn about TAMIU's national accolades accorded this year, its success on national competition and research stages, its employees' enthusiastic embrace of wellness, students' volunteer service impact worth in excess of $1.9 million, student-athletes' success on and off the field, and pivotal Civil War history research penned by Regent's Professor Dr. Jerry Thompson, among other fascinating stories.
The 32-page Report also profiles the University's student body and other key performance measures, and recognizes donors and partners that help fuel building, research and scholarship. It also includes links to expanded news features, video and photo galleries and can be easily printed, emailed or embedded in social media for sharing.
Last year's Annual Report, also available online, garnered regional, state and national awards.
The Spring Semester 2016 at TAMIU begins Wednesday, January 20, 2016. Online registration is underway at tamiu.edu. University offices close for a State-authorized holiday at noon on Wednesday, Dec. 23 and re-open Monday, Jan. 4.
For more information on TAMIU, call the Office of Public Relations, Marketing and Information Services, email prmis@tamiu.edu, click on tamiu.edu or come by Sue and Radcliffe Killam Library, room 268.
University information is also available online at tamiu.edu and on the University's social media sites on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.


Élan and Jacob came to see me wanting mountain themed rings. Élan had an engagement ring she wanted reworked so I used the stones from her original ring shown on the far right to create her new ring on the right and they wanted one of the stones in his band as well. Both rings are in 14K palladium white gold - his is a representation of the north shore mountains.

Few years back, I always lamented that there are few and little wallpaper changer apps for Ubuntu desktop. Fast forward to today, this is no longer the case. There is the evergreen Desktop Drapes that has been around since the early days, the still useful Wallpapoz that has stopped development and the cross-platforms compatible Wally that can grab your wallpapers from Flickr. Well, it seems that there is another new kid in the block: Cortina.
Cortina is a simple wallpaper changer for the Gnome desktop. It does not come with any fanciful features that other wallpaper changing app don't have, except that it is pretty lightweight and perform all its task quickly and swiftly.
For other distros or other versions of Ubuntu, you can download the deb, or tar file in the download page.
The first time you run Cortina (Applications -> Graphics -> Cortina), it will prompt you to select the folder where you contain all your wallpapers.
Once you have selected your wallpaper folder, you will see an icon appearing at the system tray.
Right click at the Cortina icon to bring up the option page. You will see two tabs: Display and Preferences.
The Display tab is where you can see your collection of wallpapers waiting to be rotated in the desktop.
The Preferences is where you can configure the wallpaper and application settings.
You can configure Cortina to Auto start when login and to switch wallpaper on start. There is also the lapsed time before every switching of wallpapers. Lastly, there is also the wallpaper search directories where you can add/remove folders of wallpaper images.
At the bottom of the preferences pane lies two confusing buttons: Tray and Close. Most people will tend to think that the Close button is to exit the Options page, not quitting the application. This is the confusing part: the Close button actually closes the Option page as well as quitting the app. If you just want to close the Options page (without quitting the app), you will have to press the Tray button.
Seriously, I don't see the need to have both the Tray and Close button. It's kinda confusing and misleading. (To the developers) Having the Close button to close the Option page will do.
Update: The latest version of Cortina has fixed this issue. There is only one Close button now instead of two confusing buttons. Thanks to Eric for listening.
Cortina is not a very impressive wallpaper changer. Nor does it comes with any killer features that make it a must-have app. However, if you are looking for a lightweight application that can get the work done with speed and no hiccup, then Cortina is a good one.
Nice software. I really like it. Thanks.
I like Wallpaper Tray. Does pretty much the same thing, but as a GNOME panel applet. It's already in the default repositories, so just "sudo apt-get install wallpaper-tray". Then right-click a GNOME panel, select "Add to Panel…", pick "Wallpaper Tray", and click "Add".
Right-click and go to Preferences to set wallpaper directories and other options.
Even though I think that we shouldn't compare Gnome to KDE since they are of totally different architecture, I do agree with you that the wallpaper changing ability should be part of the core functionality. I have been looking for such inbuilt functionality since the days I started using Linux, and until now it is still not available in Gnome.
To use a cron job is not for everybody.. someone like to use a gui what sometimes makes things easier and faster.
Yes, I agree. Using cron job maybe a quicker and faster solution, but it is definitely not for anyone, especially the newbies. Thanks to Eric for such an useful lightweight application.
popup Cortina window. But it die automatically.
Restart it. It starts as an icon on top tools bar. Right-click the icon starts Cortina window. But it dies automatically.
I already work on this issue.
If you want to help fixing this issue go to the site i posted below.
I released a new version that is more insensible as the older one.
Should fix the issue you described.
Today I'll release Cortina 0.7.2, can you please update/rewrite your review?

Joint Decisions Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Leonard Wagner Gets Patients Moving Again
May 25, 2008 November 25, 2012 HCN Staff 1604 Views
Dr. Leonard Wagner recalled a patient who needed both knees replaced, and had been taken care of by her youngest daughter for some time.
"She was wheelchair-bound and couldn't walk, because she was constantly in pain," he said. "She needed to have new knees. We did the first one, and that afternoon, she asked when she could schedule the second knee, because she already had less pain than she had experienced in a long time — and this was the day of surgery!"
About a month later, she had the second knee replaced and became independent of any walking aid save a cane. Her caretaker daughter won a little independence, too, and got married soon after — with mom effortlessly walking her down the aisle.
"In the old days," said Wagner, an orthopedic surgeon at Mercy Medical Center, "people couldn't walk with certain conditions; they were wheelchair-bound. Today, we can replace a joint, whether it's a hip or a knee, and they love you — because the pain is gone, and they can walk."
This constant reminder — that successful surgery leads, in many cases, to a happier, more fulfilling life — gives Wagner plenty of job satisfaction. And technology, he said, is continually leading to even less invasive, more effective procedures than the ones routinely practiced today.
Being Hip
Take, for example, a gender-specific knee-replacement implant for women, the Zimmer Gender Solutions NexGen High-flex Implant. The device features a slightly different shape and smaller design to better accommodate a woman's anatomy, allowing for better function and durability.
"It turns out that men have a slightly different anatomy when we're talking about knees," Wagner said. "This product takes into account that difference and fits a little better. It's better-contoured, resulting in a more satisfactory result."
Specifically, he said, women with the Zimmer implant should find it easier to bend, flex, and squat without pain. Men continue to receive what used to be a unisex implant, but one that has been modified to allow easier bending and flexion as well.
"By the time a patient comes in for this type of surgery, they have often suffered with severe knee pain for some time," Wagner said, and don't want to suffer more. The gender-specialized implant, he explained, makes it less likely that surgeons will have to perform intra-operative adjustments during surgery, meaning fewer complications later on. "Clearly, this is a breakthrough for women in need of knee-replacement surgery, and the outcomes speak for themselves."
Not only do such breakthroughs give patients more mobility than similar procedures did 20 years ago, but recovery times have been significantly reduced by a greater emphasis on laparoscopy, or minimally invasive surgery performed with the help of tiny cameras.
"Knees are done now with smaller incisions and less dissection, so that the recovery time is potentially quicker," he added. "I have patients go home 24 hours after a total knee arthroscopy. Most people go home the second day after surgery."
That's a great benefit for the Baby Boomer generation, which tends to be more physically active than previous generations approaching their 60s and 70s, an age when many joint replacements are conducted.
"They usually tend to be older people who are still active, and they have arthritis in the knee that becomes a painful, limiting factor in their activities during the day," said Wagner. After trying other treatments, "many people reach the point where the situation is impacting their daily life, and they're fairly miserable; they just want to get rid of the pain and do basic things — like walk."
At the other end of the spectrum, sports injuries such as ACL tears that were typically career-enders in the past might keep athletes out only until the next season — or sooner. "I get to treat the whole spectrum, from high schools to octogenarians, and often we see them return to full mobility, whether they suffered a sports injury, an accident, or just the wear and tear of getting older."
Get a Move On
The satisfaction of seeing such results is one of the benefits of what can be challenging work. "Patients are so appreciative," he said. "Go back a generation, and people went right to a wheelchair. I've sat with patients who didn't go to family functions anymore because it hurt too much to walk." Those stories, he said, are becoming more rare.
"The thing about orthopedics is, you can have a tremendous impact on a patient's quality of life and level of functioning," Wagner said. "You can put together a fracture, or a dislocation of the ankle, and return someone to full activity by operating on them, instead of throwing them into a cast and having arthritic ankles in their 20s."
When he's not helping patients stay active, Wagner, a photography enthusiast, can sometimes be seen with his camera, shooting some activity or other — such as one of his son's ski runs captured with a dynamic crispness and hanging framed in his office.
"I take a lot of pictures," he said, adding that his wife occasionally wonders why he keeps going after landing a good shot. "It's all about looking for that ultimate picture — and then, when you find it, you're looking for the next one."
Sounds like someone who appreciates what it means to keep moving.

Ivan Jotov Krastev (; geboren 1. Januar 1965 in Lukowit) ist ein bulgarischer Politologe und Politikberater. Er ist Permanent Fellow am Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen in Wien.

Leben
Ivan Krastev arbeitete nach dem Zerfall des Ostblocks und den Regierungswechseln oder Revolutionen in seinen Mitgliedsländern unter anderem in Budapest an der Central European University. Krastev ist Leiter des Centre for Liberal Strategies in Sofia und Fellow am Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen (IWM) in Wien, wo er den Schwerpunkt Die Zukunft der Demokratie leitet. Er publizierte für dessen Zeitschrift Transit. Europäische Revue. Er ist auch Mitglied des Kuratoriums der ERSTE Stiftung (österreichische Sparkassen-Privatstiftung) in Wien.

Krastev gehörte zum Gründerkreis der Denkfabrik European Council on Foreign Relations und arbeitete auch bei den Denkfabriken Center for European Policy Analysis und Friends of Europe.

Von 2004 bis 2006 war Krastev Mitglied in der von Giuliano Amato geleiteten Internationalen Balkan-Kommission. Von 2005 bis 2011 war er Mitglied im Beirat des International Institute for Strategic Studies. In den Jahren 2013, 2014 und 2016 war er Fellow bei der Robert Bosch Stiftung in Berlin.

Seit 2015 schreibt er regelmäßig Analysen für die internationale Ausgabe der New York Times.

Krastev erhielt den Jean-Améry-Preis für europäische Essayistik 2020.

After Europe
Krastev schrieb 2017 in seinem politisch-zeitgeschichtlichen Hauptwerk After Europe: "Die Flüchtlingskrise erwies sich als das 9/11 Europas." ("The refugee crisis turned out to be Europe's 9/11.") Die Öffnung der Grenzen insbesondere für arabische und afrikanische Flüchtlinge durch die deutsche Bundesregierung 2015 habe zu einer neuen Ost-West-Spaltung geführt, welche, parallel zur Nord-Süd-Spaltung, den europäischen Kontinent politisch zu zerreißen drohe. Die Verantwortung hierfür wies er einer Elite zu, die sich von den Wünschen und Einstellungen der Mehrheitsgesellschaft – vor allem in Migrationsfragen – abgekoppelt habe. Politik, Wirtschaft und Zivilgesellschaft seien aus unterschiedlichen Gründen kaum mehr in der Lage oder willens, einzugestehen, dass unkontrollierte Zuwanderung zu ökonomischen und kulturellen Konflikten führe. Krastev attestierte den Deutschen das Bedürfnis, sich durch einen vor den Augen der gesamten Welt zur Schau gestellten Kosmopolitismus von den Fesseln der eigenen Vergangenheit lösen zu wollen; dagegen sei der Wunsch der meisten Osteuropäer nach nationaler Souveränität und kultureller Homogenität eine Abwehrreaktion auf die von der Sowjetunion betriebene Politik des Internationalismus. Nur ein Europa der Nationen habe die Möglichkeit auf Bestand, kein zentralisiertes europäisches Imperium.

Krastev, der Wladimir Putin kennt, äußerte sich im März 2022 im Magazin Der Spiegel über die Einsamkeit des Autokraten, über dessen völkisches Denken und den Schuldkomplex eines ehemaligen KGB-Agenten.

Is an Anthem Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug Plan the Same as a Standalone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan?
Original Medicare is made up of Part A and Part B and is administered by the federal government. Private insurance companies like Anthem may contract with Medicare to provide Medicare Advantage and Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans. As a Medicare beneficiary, you can get help with Medicare prescription drug costs either through a stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan or a Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan.
As you consider your own prescription drug needs and the type of coverage that may work best for your situation, it may help to first understand the difference between Anthem Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans and Anthem stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans. Here's an overview of how both types of plans work.
What are Anthem Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans?
By law, all Anthem Medicare Advantage plans must, at minimum, provide the same coverage as Original Medicare (except for hospice care, which is still covered under Part A), but some may offer additional benefits, such as coverage for prescription drugs, routine vision and dental care, and/or the SilverSneakers wellness program.
If your Anthem Medicare Advantage plan includes prescription drug benefits, as many do, you do not need to enroll in a stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (which typically provides prescription drug coverage if you have Original Medicare).
Your prescription drug coverage is outlined in a formulary, or list of covered drugs. Plans may change their formularies at any time, but they must notify you in writing before any changes occur.
All Anthem Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans and Anthem Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans must provide at least the standard minimum formulary coverage required by the Medicare program. For example, each plan that offers Medicare prescription drug coverage is required to cover almost all medications in certain protected drug classes.
Not all plans are available in every location, and plan benefits and premiums may vary depending on where you live.
You must continue to pay your Part B premium if you enroll in an Anthem Medicare Advantage plan; you may also have an additional monthly premium from Anthem for your Medicare Advantage coverage.
Your coinsurance, copayment, and applicable deductibles may be different depending on the medications your doctor prescribes and your plan's specific formulary.
Depending on the plan you choose, you may be required to get your prescription drugs from an Anthem Medicare network provider to access benefits, or you may pay more out-of-pocket costs for medications purchased out-of-network.
Not every Anthem Medicare Advantage plan includes prescription drug coverage (although most do). Always check with the specific plan before enrolling.
What is an Anthem stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan?
Stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans are meant to supplement your coverage under Original Medicare. Prescription drug coverage is limited under Original Medicare, and you'll need to enroll in Part D for coverage of most medications. Like Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans, these plans also use a formulary and must provide the minimum benefits required by the Medicare program. You may have copayments or coinsurance amounts that differ based on the medications you take and your plan formulary.
These plans generally may not be combined with a Medicare Advantage plan with prescription drug coverage; if you enroll in a stand-alone Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan while enrolled in a Medicare Advantage that includes prescription drug coverage, you will be automatically removed from Medicare Advantage and enrolled in Original Medicare. The exception is if your Medicare Advantage plan doesn't offer Part D coverage; in this case, you may be allowed to get your prescription drug benefits through a stand-alone Medicare Prescription Drug Plan.
Not all plans are available in every location, and plan premiums and benefits may vary by city or state.
You pay a separate premium for these plans. It's important to enroll in Medicare prescription drug coverage as soon as you are eligible, or you may have to pay a late-enrollment penalty each month for as long as you are covered. The late-enrollment penalty may apply any time you go without Part D and don't have other creditable prescription drug coverage (insurance that pays, on average, as much as the standard Part D benefit) for 63 days in a row or more.
Medicare Part D costs can vary widely from plan to plan. Most Medicare plans place covered medications into "tiers," and depending on the cost tier that your prescription drugs fall under, your copayments or coinsurance costs could be more or less. You may find that one Medicare plan has higher copayments or deductibles than another, even when covering the exact same prescription drugs. Because of this, it can be helpful to compare plan options to find prescription drug coverage that fits your budget.

Most people tend to believe that they can not get mortgage for their manufactured or mobile home. In reality, however, there are a variety of financing options available. You have a mortgage payment and a deed you will receive when you finish your payment, the same as any other type of homeowner, you also have the same home loan options. If your current mortgage rate is higher than the current nationwide rates, or if your credit has improved since moving in, you most likely would save money, or even walk away with money, if you refinance your manufactured or mobile home.
Like any other , you are simply taking out a new loan, with better terms, rates, or both, and repaying your old loan in full. This will reduce your monthly mortgage payment. You can even refinance for more than you owe (but less than the home is worth) and walk out with that cash. Maybe you do not need to save money every month but you could get a loan with a shorter term and same payment as you have now. For most homes the true value is in the land.

The mobile homes of yesterday are now more frequently called manufactured homes, and not only are they bigger, but also, many are better made than the original mobile homes made in the late 1960's and 70's. While this is important, it also means that manufactured home loans is one way to get started with your own home, especially if you find one that is a bit older. There are a few hard and fast rules for mobile home loans and you'll want to make sure that your mobile home is current with these items.

This doesn't mean you should be afraid of an older mobile, you'll just want to know whether there are financial institutions manufactured home loans available for the make, year and model of home you're looking at. You'll also want to have someone check out the basic structure of the mobile home before you purchase, some will have dry rot throughout due to leaking walls, roofs and plumbing. The basic structure of the home can dictate whether you can move it to your property or to your mobile home park, no sense buying something that can't be mobile in this situation.
ight and can be towed to certain locations where it is set up as a permanent or temporary dwelling. The land underneath usually does not belong to the home owner but is leased or rather rented for use. In some cases however the land can also be owned by the owner or lessee of the mobile home. A mobile home park or a barren piece of land are usually used for the purpose. This is the most comprehensive set up that you can provide.
Buy a barren piece of land, develop it a little bit on your own. Then you can easily get a water and electricity connection and build a sewer system on your own. This way your trailer/mobile home park is ready. You can of course advertise about the park and keep on developing it further more, by planting lush green trees, providing free Internet facilities, etc. Mobile home owners would be able to use allocated spaces along with electricity and water connections. You can obtain a mortgage or secured loan to buy and develop the land.
A bigger loan amount means larger mobile home. In fact, in such a situation you can try to get as many mobile homes as possible, or you can even rent them or take them on lease. Now, in such a scenario, it's better to get old mobile homes and then refurbish them, it costs less on the whole. The last option that you can use is being a dormant or sleeping partner, that is just pool in the money and enjoy the returns. However, many people still continue to call them mobile homes.

Jason Cierans, who was attacked in Bondi Junction on Friday night.
Jason Cierans, 29, was found unconscious and bleeding from the mouth just after 1am on Saturday when police were called to the Tea Gardens Hotel on Bronte Street following reports of a brawl.
Disturbing footage broadcast on Nine News showed the man on the street in the hands of paramedics.
He was placed in an induced coma at St Vincent's Hospital, where he remains in a critical but stable condition.
Seven News reported Mr Cierans crossed the road and was attacked without warning in front of a 7/11 convenience store.
"I don't know, my friend just walked and this guy punched him – and that's it," a witness told reporters at the scene.
Security guards found one of the alleged attackers nearby and detained him until police arrived.
Two men were arrested at the scene and taken back to Waverley Police Station, where a 27-year-old was charged with affray and granted conditional bail to appear in Waverley Local Court on September 24.
The second man, aged 30, was questioned by police at length on Saturday afternoon and charged with recklessly causing grievous bodily harm. He was refused bail and will appear at Parramatta Local Court on Sunday.

Whitmer Previews Policy Vision At 2nd Inauguration
Article courtesy MIRS News for SBAM's Lansing Watchdog e-newsletter
During her second inauguration ceremony, the Governor described her four-year vision as including bigger savings for seniors, making Michigan an "epicenter of innovation" and officially revoking old laws, like those surrounding abortion and LGBTQ issues.
"We can make Michigan a place where all people can envision a great future – no matter who they are, where they come from or how much money they have in their pocket," said Gretchen Whitmeras part of the formal event that kicked off her second term in office.
A line of dark pink was wrapped around the inauguration stage, and hundreds of individuals covered the Capitol lawn. Many of them wore bright pink beanies reading "Michigan Strong," which was the ceremony's title.
On stage, Whitmer was sworn in by the Michigan Supreme Court's latest justice – as well as its first Black female justice – Kyra Bolden (D-Southfield), who officially took her oath of office the morning after Whitmer announced her plans to appoint her near the end of 2022.
Lt. Gov. Garlin GilchristII, Attorney General Dana Nesseland Secretary of State Jocelyn Bensonwere also sworn in, along with members of the Michigan Supreme Court, the state Court of Appeals and other statewide office holders who won their Nov. 8 elections.
Throughout Sunday morning's festivities, there were multiple nods toward the Democrats' takeover of the state Legislature, with Democratic candidates winning 20 of the Michigan Senate's 38 seats and 56 of the House chamber's 110 spots.
U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow highlighted the new legislative majority in her speech, stating she's excited "about what this means for the strong partnership our state has with President (Joe) Bidenand our federal delegation."
Former Gov. James Blanchard, the last governor to serve with both a Democratic-led House and Senate (before the Senate flipped and remained under Republican leadership from 1984 until this year), was also present at the ceremony.
"A stunning opportunity stands before us to work together like never before across legislative chambers and alongside the executive branch," said new Senate Majority Leader Winnie Brinks (D-Grand Rapids) during a joint presentation with the latest House Speaker, Joe Tate (D-Detroit).
Bringing a "heartfelt congratulations" to Whitmer on behalf of the Senate, Brinks said she is proud to stand alongside the Governor, possessing confidence in Whitmer's "strength and courage to meet the challenges and the tasks before her."
"It is with gratitude to the voters that have placed their trust in us that we embrace this opportunity to move in unison to improve the lives of the people of Michigan," Brinks said. "As we celebrate this powerful moment together, we do so ever mindful that true unity is directly correlated to the strength we draw from the diversity of our great state."
Expanding on her preview sheet of policy goals, adding that she'll "have a lot to say" in the upcoming State of the State address, Whitmer listed off wanting to see more record-making investments in education from preschool to the post-secondary level, to pursue gun policy reforms and to ensure worker access to quality health care and great benefits.
"Over the next four years, we must do everything we can – so we lower costs for families, so we can add more money in their pockets to take care of their bills and put food on the table. We need to grow our economy so that every single person can get the skills and land a good-paying job," Whitmer said. "Our task is clear – focus on the fundamentals, work together and get things done."
One of the Capitol's visitors was 54-year-old Tony Braggs, a member of the United Auto Workers' (UAW's) Region 1A in Taylor.
He described himself as a Democratic activist. When it came to his New Year's policy desires, he told MIRS that he would like to see a repeal of Michigan's Right-to-Work law.
He would also like to see reform on retirement taxes in Michigan.
"What brought me here today is that this is a great day in history with the Michigan Democratic Party," Braggs said. "To have our governor (elected) for a second term – it's a good thing for the state of Michigan, it's a good thing for the UAW and it's a great thing for the middle class…so we're looking forward to some of the things that's coming down the pipeline that kind of fits the middle class – the working people."
Another attendee was LGBTQ advocate Christina Rissman, a 27-year-old from Warren who moved to Washington, D.C. after the recent election.
She described her canvassing work for the 2022 election cycle as being full of "constant panic all the time," especially when wondering what election operations could look like after the Jan. 6, 2021 riot in the U.S. Capitol.
"…and like, whether or not we would be able to carry on normalcy and the democratic process – but Michigan made it happen in 2020, and they made it happen this year, and we have a great Secretary of State obviously who's overseeing all of our voting processes and making sure that things go as simple as possible and that we have secure and free elections," Rissman said. "Michigan held it down and did what needed to be done."
As for what policy modifications she would like to see in 2023, Rissman said a statewide non-discrimination protection for LGBTQ folks would be great.
"Now that we got kind of the trifecta going here in Michigan, we're hopeful that that will finally happen," Rissman said, referencing the call to expand the state's Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act to protect LGBTQ individuals. "Michigan's always been the leader on a lot of these different fights, and so hopefully that's the case for this."
After the event, visitors could check out an array of activities, such as a heated tent full of music and refreshments, a performance from dancing roller skaters and ice sculpture displays alongside Capitol Avenue.

Golden Years: San Clemente Poised to Add Nearly 200 Rooms for Retired Living
On January 10, 2019 January 9, 2019
By Eric Heinz
More housing options for retired people will be coming to San Clemente in the near future. Two major projects will add nearly 200 additional rooms that could provide more living space.
With more residents than it can house, a major topic leading into the 2018 election and that has reverberated around the state is housing and affordable living.
According to U.S. Census data, the median age of Orange County residents rose from 33.3 to 36.2 years from 2000 to 2010.
Raya's Paradise
With assistance for hospice, dementia, Alzheimer's disease and independent living care, Raya's Paradise plans to open its doors by 2020 after years of going through planning processes.
Moti Gamburd, the CEO of Raya's Paradise, said he acquired the land about five years ago but that it's been a long process to get the project started. They had to go through San Clemente's planning process as well as the California Coastal Commission for permitting.
Raya's was required by the commission to remove trees to make an ocean-view corridor for residents, as well as other mandates.
He got the final approvals from the Coastal Commission last year.
Raya's Paradise will be located on the 100 block of Avenida Calafia, next to the San Clemente Inn.
There will be 24-hour care and an assisted-living unit, providing independent living as well as end-of-life care.
Gamburd said he was inspired by his mother, who immigrated to the U.S. from Russia and Israel, to enter the assisted-living industry.
"In 1991, my mom, who is a nurse, came to the United States and took care of an old lady," Gamburd said. "Because she has experience in the geriatric work, she said if I can take care of one lady, why can't I take care of six ladies?"
In California, one home can hold up to six people at one time who are not dependents of the title holder.
"At that time, while I was in school, my father got very ill, and I kind of started to help her, and I started to fall in love with this field," Gamburd said, adding that Raya's has added six retirement-living facilities in California.
Monica Westphaln, the COO of Raya's, was working for a competitor in 2011 when Gamburd decided to try to join forces with her.
"She kind of opened my eyes and showed me how much better it would be to build in a larger community," Gamburd said. "Eventually, we landed on (San Clemente). We hired an architect from San Clemente."

Open as list Close List
Gamburd said he had to convince the commission that Raya's in San Clemente was necessary, pointing to an office facility that had been approved years ago before it would be developed. In recent years, the California Coastal Commission has leaned toward a housing-friendly approach in order to address the state's housing crisis.
"The growing population of our elderly is becoming graver and graver as the years go on," Westphaln said. "So we started to do a competitive analysis, and we showed the Coastal Commission that this is a great site for the city of San Clemente because there's not a lot to offer for our seniors."
Westphaln said the offering of mental health and attentive services may have been the tipping point to getting the project approved.
Raya's will have 40 rooms but provide 80 beds for couples that move in together.
According to the company's website, Raya's has a subsidiary called CARE (Caring, Assisting, Respecting our Elderly) Home-care, which "sends qualified and trained caregivers to homes to help with daily routines."
Services provided under CARE include medication assistance and reminders, pharmacy support, meal planning and preparation, exercise and strengthening, activities at home including art, music, reading, gardening, cooking, brain-stimulating activities, games and regular physical activity, companionship and transportation.
Representatives with Raya's said the average cost of living will be between $8,000 and $10,000 per month, which is typically only covered by long-term care medical insurance plans.
Job searches have not yet begun, but Gamburd said he wants to hire staff locally. There is a waiting list at the facilities in Los Angeles County owned by Raya's, but they have not yet marketed their San Clemente rooms.
For more information on the company, visit www.rayasparadise.com.
Shorecliffs Driving Range
Another facility, nearly three times the size of Raya's, is a retired-living facility at the Shorecliffs Golf Club driving range. The applicant of the project is Greystar Real Estate Partners, LLC.
The facility is planned to be four stories high at 501 Avenida Vaquero. The facility is expected to host 150 rooms.
The project is currently going through Design Review Subcommittee and environmental checks of the planning division. The project is also part of a replacement clubhouse planned to be built at Shorecliffs Golf Club.
Residents at the Shorecliffs facility will have to be 55 and older in order to move in. A timeline of completion of the project has not yet been announced.

Mount Sinai eye surgeon restores vision of diabetic NYC man during height of COVID pandemic
Hugh Grant says he's now 'too old and ugly and fat' to star in romantic comedies
By Peter Sblendorio
Hugh Grant, seen here in January, has starred in many memorable rom-coms over the years. (Mike Coppola/Getty Images for Turner)
The longtime king of romantic comedies has apparently been dethroned.
Hugh Grant ― who has starred in a slew of memorable rom-coms including "Love Actually," "Notting Hill" and "Bridget Jones's Diary" ― joked that he's no longer a candidate to be the leading man in that genre of movies nowadays.
He explained why to The Hollywood Reporter with a laugh after he was asked if he still harbored an inferiority complex, as he's said in the past, since the bulk of his work was in romantic comedies.
"Well, yes, but less now because I've gotten too old and ugly and fat to do them anymore, so now I've done other things and I've got marginally less self-hatred," he told the magazine.
Grant, 58, admitted that he feels he should have made more "interesting choices" with his career rather than repeating himself with the types of movies he did.

But he's not complaining.
"I was being paid tons of money. I was very lucky. And most of those romantic comedies I can look squarely in the face — one or two are shockers, but on the whole I can look them in the face and people like them," Grant told THR.
"And I am a big believer that our job is to entertain. It's not to practice some weird, quasi-religious experience."
His comments came as part of a roundtable discussion for THR that included fellow actors Sam Rockwell, Billy Porter, Richard Madden, Diego Luna and Stephan James.

How to reinstall Windows 7 without a license code
If you are in a situation where you have to reinstall Windows, in addition to the multimedia device containing the installation files of this system, you need a license code to check them. If you are using Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 If you have lost the license code for the system, you have two options for reinstalling it does not require a code, namely PC Update si Reset PC (To completely reinstall on a bootable media device, you will need to enter a license before starting the installation process). But if you use Windows 7 or Window Vista, you can reinstall the system without a license code, the system can work as a Free Trial 30 for a few days (while you need to do so, get a license code to check).
One solution to recover lost license code . Windows operating system uses recovery tool . But if you want to use such a tool, there is a method by which Windows 7 users can reinstall the Legal System without a license code (only for those who have already confirmed the system and want to reinstall it, but have lost the license code).
How can we legally reinstall Windows 7 without using a license code?
First, to use this method you need to install a DVD (Which contains the settings files for Windows 7 ) And be sure the computer you want to reinstall the system must be a DVD optical drive (the method does not work for other bootable media devices , such as a USB flash drive ). In addition, the requirements for a normal system reinstallation must be fulfilled in this case (i.e. have 16 GB minimum free space. Version on hard disk 32-bit si 20 GB version 64-bit ). After reinstalling the system, you will have to reinstall all third-party applications necessary, since they will be deleted (only the personal archive will be saved).
open Control Panel and go to System and Security> Backup and Restore , and then click the Restore System Settings link or PC
screen is displayed, click on Advanced Recovery Methods
While the first option allows system recovery to reinstall it using a backup , the second option allows you to reinstall the system without using license code verification ; click Reinstall Windows (Requires Windows installation disc)
click Yes to confirm that you have Windows DVD 7 installation then give either click on backup to create a backup of personal files (Recommended if you do not already have a backup of them, just in case) or click on skip continue system reinstall process
then enter the install DVD system into the optical drive and press the restart button
After restarting the system, you must select the language you want to use for the keyboard. Then click on the Next button and confirm that you want to reinstall the system.
press again, Yes to confirm that you have the DVD installation (This will already be inserted into the optical drive of the computer) and begin to reinstall the operating system
Replacing your normal, as in the classic reinstallation, but after completion will not have to enter the license verification code , as the system has already been confirmed. Success!

THE STORY - Jeff Bauman loses both of his legs when two bombs explode during the Boston Marathon on April 15, 2013. After regaining consciousness in the hospital, Jeff is able to help law enforcement identify one of the suspects, but his own battle is just beginning. With unwavering support from his family and girlfriend, Bauman embarks on a long and heroic journey to physical and emotional rehabilitation.
THE GOOD - The performances by Gyllenhaal and Maslany are riveting, emotional and authentic.
THE BAD - The film's cliched screenplay, telling a story we are overly familiar with, does little to help the film stand out.
If Jake Gyllenhaal does not get an Oscar nomination for his physical and emotional performance in "Stronger" then you can bet that news reports will start coming out that he's fighting a bear and eating raw bison liver for his next movie. After over a decade since his first nomination for "Brokeback Mountain" and countless mesmerizing performances in between including "Nightcrawler," "Nocturnal Animals" and "Prisoners," he might have found the right vehicle to get him that second nomination. That's because "Stronger" is typical Oscar bait and while that may get Gyllenhaal that second nomination, that isn't necessarily a good thing.
"Stronger," tells the true story of Jeffrey Bauman (Jake Gyllenhaal) who after breaking up with his girlfriend Erin Hurley (Tatiana Maslany), decides he's going to attend her marathon run in Boston to help support her and hopefully win her back. He happens to attend on the day of the Boston Marathon Bombing of 2013 and is at the finish line when the bombs go off. The blast results in Jeff losing both of his legs and nearly his life. Faced with a difficult rehab, the pressures of trying to live up to be a hero in the eyes of his family and the nation, all the while dealing with possible PTSD and the pressures of a committed and serious relationship with Erin, Jeff needs to be stronger if he's going to make it through this experience and out the other side ok.
"Stronger" checks off every box one needs to in order to be considered an "Oscar movie." Based on a true story? Check. Able bodied actor suffers a horrible tragedy leaving him with a disability? Check. Said actor uses his love for a woman to overcome his disability because the alternative is to just give up and die? Check. A movie that takes place in Boston with actors behaving like real people to make the movie feel more realistic even though "Boston in film" is becoming a cliche? Ok, maybe I embellished on that last one a little too much. The fact remains that "Stronger" is a story we have seen time and time again. I'm not knocking the real people who were involved in this terrible event. What I am knocking is that Hollywood feels that this is the kind of film they always need to make and they always happen to release around the end of the year for one reason and one reason only: awards.
Now, do I think Gyllenhaal deserves to get a nomination for his performance in "Stronger?" Absolutely. He does terrific work here in terms of his physicality, the depths of his emotions, and all of the little details in the eyes and face that Gyllenhaal has become known for. Because the film is about him, we are naturally going to talk about him and how great he is. But we should not discount Tatiana Mislaney who does not have a disability to help her garner sympathy for her performance. She has to rely on good writing to allow for her character to have moments to stand out. Those moments are few and far in between. While David Gordon Green does a solid job in allowing the actors to deliver their performances, the film is still hurt overall by a cliche story with cliche characters we have seen time and time again. For an example of this, pay attention to the scene in the film where Jeff has his bandages removed by doctors in the hospital for the first time. Green focuses the actors sharply in the foreground while Jeff's legs are blurred in the background. Jeff and Erin stare at each other while we hear the doctors talking about the procedure. It helps build tension while also allowing for two characters to connect on a raw and emotional level.
That moment and many others make "Stronger" a movie that will no doubt move many to tears. Even with my criticisms of the film's screenplay, I was unable to shake off the power of what Gyllenhaal and Maslany were doing. Their performances felt authentic and raw. Green knew what he had in these two performers and wisely focuses the film on them. However, with a screenplay that is following too many of the same old story beats, "Stronger" fails to drum up much interest outside of these two extraordinarily gifted actors. They are also continuously brought down by the supporting cast of characters ranging from Jeff's friends and family, who are also walking talking cliches of the very best that Boston has to offer the filmmaking industry with their foul language, beer drinking and idiotic decisions which do nothing but leave our main characters hurt. We've seen it before. We've seen this story before. Flip the roles and put Maslany in the chair, while allowing Gyllenhaal to still be an irresponsible man-child who can't emotionally commit to his girlfriend's new predicament. Or don't make this movie at all. See it for the performances or for the inspiration but don't expect anything unique. And certainly, don't expect Hollywood to stop giving us more of the same.

I am very grateful to work with my family and my business family at Coldwell Banker Elite. It has been rewarding working with a terrific group of people who are committed to providing high service and ethical standards.
My goal is to take great care of our customers and clients so they can focus on being excited about their new property! Prior to real estate, my background in corporate human resources and operations helped me refine my problem solving, communication and overall business skills. My past emplyer described me as a person who "gets things done." I've taken that skill set to help our customers and clients at Coldwell Banker Elite.
When I'm not doing all things real estate, you'll find me taking advantage of a Waukesha County Bike Trail or enjoying one of the many lakes here in Lake Country.
Fan of Vince Lombardi. His leadership and motivation reach far beyond the Football Field.
