Mariner

It was early December, we get closer to our chosen anchorage, shark river on the west coast of Florida on the westernmost point of the Everglades. The oceans are mild, the climate is warm and sunny all day. I could not wait to enjoy a cocktail at the tow new here is the sunset. In just an hour or two would be there.

Suddenly, a shot and the port engine died. What was that? A quick glance, I find nothing wrong. But our firstMate watchful eye of a tail float saw a crab trap attached to the lifeboat suspended.

We avoid the car all day, there were thousands of people place in the Gulf of local Crabbers. There are, of course, had lost one and now the firm and rolled in our team online. We are miles from civilization, and we had a mask and fins, to say nothing of diving equipment. There was no telephone service is out, we were so close to everyone with VHF too. Do not look goodnot at all.

It could happen to a hypothetical case? Think again! We do not believe this, and, rarely, never happened. I personally made this trip often, hoping to avoid these things, and we have always done. But the possibility is there, and it is better to plan for the poor and loans.

How about you just check the bottom of the boat regularly? For sailors, the large vessels remain in water all year, especially in salt water,Inspect the floor boat is regularly subjected. Safe under the colors of the water in the continued growth of the hull, but the suspension loses its color over time and boost growth. And the boat sinks, put there to protect the victim of metal for the rest of the boat, which also control because they are the last 6 months. And of course there's always the mucus that is able to grow on the surface.

But the search for a diver is not always easy to do. Here the diver in Floridaexorbitant prices are not always reliable and need. And you never know exactly what he did or did not do well here. So what is a sailor to do?

Some time ago I decided that if I wanted my vessels have their soil tested so many times that I wanted was my best place to do it. After all, most sailors are taught from the beginning that is below even moderately to the need to keep your boat. This is not, save a bit 'of money that was not good, but you can not just rely on otherThe maintenance of a ship.

I saw the divers at the bottom trawlers and I wonder how you do with all the equipment that has come their way. Is there a better way? You bet. I found a man named Dennis Parker. Dennis owns a tugboat and right here in Florida at a time. Dennis and his team have begun to market a new system of cylinders is the least that can be useful.

Dennis and his team began in 1996 as a joint effort between the owners of vessels and some engineers. Thefelt the need for all planning and construction of a storage system that appear to be less accessible to boaters, it is easy to use.

The system has an air compressor oil less developed a plunge through the feed pipes. A regulator, hose and belt comes with the package. You must provide a mask, wetsuit and flippers. The system allows for a dignified life up to 30 m, but most sailors are only about 4 feet below the water.

All complete including the combination of system, mask, fins andThe cost was less than $ 1000.00.

I clean my slide downwards, if necessary, refer to the sink and scrub the waterline. It will take only 30 minutes to do this.

And if I never see this dish Bad crab, I take care of him.

Traveling to the United States for the first time? If yes, who has landed on the right side. Even if the rules were tightened after 9 / 11, it is impossible to satisfy. The new law invited the United States government decided that the United States must provide proof of citizenship in the form of a passport.

His car has broken down, and now must pay for towing and repairs. Sometimes these unexpected repair costs hundreds or thousands of dollars. What are your options?

1. Be Prepared

The best way to avoid an emergency should be prepared for emergencies. If you can, as well as a bit 'of money every month (in case of medical emergency, cars) or accident, then you can get unexpected situations. However, when the time comes andnot planned in advance, there are several ways to get money.

2. Stay Calm

One of the most common mistakes that must be done in case of emergency, to lose their cool. If you lose patience, you might forget to use common sense. Use your common sense to go shopping. Even if you are a constraint on the time needed to address spaces for appointments before sending someone. The ten minutes for some comparisons can save twenty dollars ormore. This makes the use of time and money. Remember, you're too late anyway, so take your time to come.

If the driver of the trailer, make sure you know where you want your car to be fired. Should not be comparison shopping for them. You can also call a friend and make some calls for you. If you do not know what is wrong with his car, which led to a mechanic or a broker. Saywhat is wrong, and you can decide how much (could) all the work they have done.

3. Check options

If you buy a car, often guaranteed. You can put under contract for AAA or CAA. Your insurance company may have some repairs to your car needs. Before going to pay for the repair of his pocket, learn what repairs are covered. Then, obtain the consent of the institution will pay for help. It is easier to obtain,To pay in advance when they will be persuaded to refund.

Consider keeping the members of the CAA or AAA. This means that we have the trailer, if you're still in an accident or if you have an eraser. This is an annual fee, should weigh the pros and cons of membership. Personally, I think I know that a lot of my membership, including the provision that assured me that even if I am traveling.

4. NOT induce

If you pay for yourEmergency repairs, do not obtain loans payday. The interest rate on payday loans to wear and its hard for you to return their debts.

5. Getting the best interest

Find out where you can take the best interest of the money. If you borrow, you can go into smaller pieces throughout the year instead of losing a deposit. This works even if you pay for your vehicle.

If setvehicle repair your credit, remember that you probably pay a higher interest rate if you have a loan for car repair, or if you went to a bank or credit union. Check the interest rates, provided that the various organs, including the dealer, if your car, once repaired.

6. Meanwhile

Even if the car is in the shop, be smart about how to move. Do not take taxis everywhere, if you do not! Ask your friends for lifts, which areto understand when you are in need because of unexpected repairs for several days. Take the bus for a couple of days. On foot or by bicycle, if possible. Temporary car-pooling with a colleague (who may also work for you, if you limit your car!). Not exceed the cost of repair, because it has no car.

I saw in the baseball fans of New York at Yankee opposing players throwing things in the outfield. Sometimes a penny, not a bread, and perhaps used a flashlight battery, or have finished eating and what not.

Philadelphia is known as the City of Brotherly Love Philly fans could still change things in their players coating, such as rocks or car batteries to drink, types of muscle. Philadelphia Phillies fans are likely to be less patient and more unstableBaseball, and I know why.

A report of the United States today (7-3-07) notes that the Phillies on the verge of becoming the first professional sports franchise to record 10,000 losses. 9996 reached a deficit of July 3, 2007. Here are the teams closest to the Atlanta Braves loss (9,675) and Chicago Cubs (9421). I thought the Cubs, but not the Braves.

It should be noted that the Braves and Cubs were in the National League of origin in 1876, and the Phillies and Giants entered theNL 7 years later, in 1883.

Here are some interesting facts about the sad record Phillies:

The Phillies lost at least 90 games a season 20 times during the 25 years between 1921 and 1945.

From 1919 to 1945 (27 years), Phillies National League ended last 16 seconds of time and in the last 7 times viewed. The 23 to 27 years in the last or next to last. No wonder the people of the working class drinking beer in Philadelphia.

One of its leaders, said during his leanDoc Proth was old, a dentist, whose son, Tommy, was the head coach of the NFL Los Angeles Rams (1971-1974) and San Diego Chargers (1974-1978).

Former Seattle Mariner and current Philadelphia starter Jamie Moyer grew up in Philadelphia, and there is a loss for the Phillies never forget. In 1986, as a member of the Chicago Cubs, Moyer beat the Phillies, and his boyhood hero, Steve Carlton, 7-5 for his first major league.

The Phillies 47-107 1961and finished 46 games out of first place, but it was the lowest point in the last 23 defeats, which remains the longest in major "since 1900. The greatest loss is a stretch of 10 games in September 1964. Philadelphia led the National League for 6.5 games on September 21, with 12 games remaining. They lost in the next 10 and St. Louis Cardinals won the championship.

Half of the loss of 10,000 road was July 24, 1945 at Wrigley Field in Chicago Cubs, 8-3 victory over only whenAvailable from 8393 if you do not win, nobody wants to come see you play.

The Phillies had the league record for 100-loss seasons, but is a point of view include: The Phillies had 13 seasons of 100 losses during his first 63 seasons and only one in the next 62 years.

Despite the bad news, there is also the report good news.

Philadelphia won the World Series in 1980 and 1993 series against the Blue Jays have played. Unfortunately, they lost in Game 6 of 1993The series, when the left hand off Mitch "Wild Thing" Williams gave a series ends Homer to Joe Carter, Toronto Sky Dome.

If all this sounds familiar, that the movie Major League baseball with Charlie Sheen as Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn.

Here is a great, what about the Philadelphia Phillies: Mike Schmidt can say.

Mike Schmidt is probably the best third baseman in Major League history. Thinking ago Brooks Robinson Baltimore Oriolesagain, but keep in mind that Schmidt was three times (three times) is an MVP, and won 10 Gold Gloves

I have already said that he hit 548 home runs (before steroids) had Ribbe 1595 and 2234 visits. Its 48 channels in 1980, the third single of the hard-core. Oh, yes, Mike Schmidt is in the Hall of Fame baseball.

What's better than a relaxing drive, easy, listening to good music with your lover? Marked near Satsop in a field with a sign that says hay for sale ", he swam circles Hawk is a large file. Like the hawk is upon us, miles of Tacoma Buick Century at Ocean Shores.

Music has always played the songs of Jimmie Rodgers: A Tribute. The CD was in 1997 for the 100th anniversary of the legendary "Singing Breakman free." PEG hadbought the CD long before our trip through Western Washington, but never had the chance to sit down and listen. I am very happy to have had the chance.

Peg father said that the "father of country music and that" he used to listen to Jimmie Rodgers records album Ike, when we got married. For an anniversary pin bought a book of songs by Jimmie Rodgers, who hear at times the songs on the piano.

The dedication of the CD was written by Bob Dylan and is surprisingly coherent, "YourThe vote gives hope to the vanquished and humility to the powerful. "Rodgers played music from different places and made to appear. S County is too restrictive for people like Rodgers. Dylan says Jerry Lee Lewis with a statement," Jerry Lee Lewis, once said that only four stylists - Jimmie Al Jolson, Hank Williams, and he did. "

To recognize the joy of listening to music, and respect for diversity and the wide range of artists. When you hear theThe songs will be on the radio, you just accept the beauty of the songs played. To be heard in this collection, said: "Wow." The CD starts with a very emotional version of dreams, with tears in his eyes from Bono. Add to my favorites of all are complementary: Alison Krause singing at any time, Blue Eyed Jane Bob Dylan and yodel application by Aaron Neville Why Should I Be Lonely. Other artists on the CD are: Iris Dement, Jerry Garcia (each lamest Yodel ... but somehow catchy), Van Morrison, Dwight Yoakam, John Mellencamp, Willie Nelson, and Mary Chapin Carpenter.

When I walk through the whole repertoire of times we go to Ocean Shores. One could say that every time the nearby sea. The sky was gray and fog shrouded the tops of pine trees along the road. We shot in the parking study Nautilus and immediately frozen when we left the car. Pin up, when I made three trips to the carcondominium on the third floor, and then we went to dinner.

We, the limited number of restaurants. Being here Tuesday evening there was a limit to the dining room. Many of the interior. Finally, we decided on Chinese food Lucky Dragon.

We knew that food was to be good - the local police took to bring to our arrival. Inside the restaurant, who broke a golden rule - you use a cell phone. We took the phone and called Tacoma.My sister, Marsha, said. PEG warned time and suggested that everyone bring their coats and jackets. We ask you to enter a swimsuit Peg, a jacket for me and a bread knife.

The food in the Lucky Dragon was good, but nothing special. E 'was the standard Americanized Chinese menu. Visit from time to time living in Seattle, Tacoma and we are spoiled by our wonderful selection of cities in Asia, North-West.

Back to the Nautilus, we're home. How muchsites where the stay is not sufficient lighting for reading. We'd like to read. Vacation means eating, sleeping and reading. We stopped in front of the desk lamp on the screen to give a little 'light more. We have to go home by a power greater than that of incandescent bulbs.

Our third corner room on the ground has given us an excellent view over the dunes. I saw a child playing animal head. He hid behind a hill, with a large dog on a leash. A small dog was running through the dunes. Paused. The ears in the headConcern for the grass runway. The boy whistled, and remained hidden. The dog ran to the user and colds. Finally, the boy came out and asked the dog to him and laughed.

As a child I played games like this. Sometimes I come home from school and the circle around the track. My dog, Pal, a collie, and Cindy, a cocker spaniel, waited patiently for me by the fence. My Shetland pony, a Pinto named Koko, was in the small enclosure in the garage andlooking at the garden. I like to go into the garage and Holler expected, all three.

This was our second stay at the Nautilus. This is a pleasant and convenient. In reality not much more than the sand a hundred yards from the road, I do not recommend. My sisters stay. Arenas had a hangover, floating trash, the external decoration of the shipwreck at sea.

Nautilus has an outside surface of dog shit. Inside the Nautilus has a coffee maker, microwave, fully equipped kitchen,fireplace, VCR, cable TV, fancy folded napkins. We were the first time, if we can not enter the gray gull. The gull gray is where we stay if we had children at home. We've been over the years. Very nice. We are finally back.

As a child you've never been in a motel in Ocean Shores. My family has always stood. In general, the friends and family to us. They are good memories. During our trip to the coast Peg and I talkedand spent our first anniversary. Welcome, camping. We sat in the dunes and then went to Hoquiam for a film. After the movie we stopped at Kentucky Fried Chicken (always present), has ordered a bucket, and took our chickens on the beach. On the beach in Ocean City, we sat in our quiet, green and white two-door hardtop, 1955 Chrysler New Yorker and eating our "original recipe" chicken (the only version currently). I remember that the best friend of KentuckyI had the chicken, and this memory is probably because I always for the original recipe.

Wednesday morning I slept at 6:30 am. I went to breakfast and took half of a sandwich of fried chicken on toast Peg. I also brought a slice of orange with a touch of decoration. When he gets up to ten clock hours I gave the box to the house. The disc was orange on top of sandwich. Presentation is everything.

My sisters and other relatives went to the oceanCoins on July 4 for several years. They have said many times, PEG, and we must go to the beach for the fireworks. I always thought it was funny to me, because friends employed by us for a July 4th party at his house overlooking the old town. Leave early in the rule and was in bed when the fireworks began.

This year we decided to try the fourth in Ocean Shores. We were in the room and saw from the terrace. It 'was incredible. We had a vision of 180 degreesFireworks. In what would be on the left side of fireworks, and what could be seen on the right side was fireworks. Ocean City, a few miles north of Ocean Shores was a big-screen career, but in our view, could not say no difference.

Our son Patrick, daughter of Wendy's in law, and the youngest granddaughter of our staff went to the beach and fireworks fired their own. I asked Patrick a few more people on the beach, becauseThe party was at midweek. He smiled, was "making no difference. There was no place on the beach for everyone. Of course, each family group to another and fight to the beach.

The next morning there was debris everywhere, of course, fireworks. Empty boxes lined the road from the beach. Obviously not discourage fireworks and wild animals. I have seen deer walk across the parking lot just two hundred meters in front of our apartment the next morning.Deer, abundant.

As the son of Patrick and I played golf on Friday morning. We saw several groups. A group of two is not two calves. Ocean Shores has many trees and brush Schruber hide the nature and thrive in many of them are so thick you can not see how anything other than a few centimeters. N. deer came, we saw a little 'money. They were attentive and we saw them and follow their activities. N. deer were harmed during our golf coursesGame. Whenever you have the guarantee of the ball, ran the deer, the fairway. They knew she was safe. Were.

Last Friday we went with Patrick and Wendy. We could have had with them throughout their stay, but we like our privacy, and do. Many people in urban areas of the house of Puget Sound in the summer or go home around Ocean Shores. Brother and Sister Wendy's of the law are three-bedroom cottage near the beach. The house reminded me of the days when our campingour children were younger. We had a truck and trailer, not a furnished house, but they are similar, there is no telephone or television. For entertainment, the games are held. Thursday afternoon, my sister, Marsha came with us. My sister Dee Dee and her daughters were living at the motel and got caught in a game in your browser, cable TV. We had a lot of fun to play on Thursday and Friday afternoon.

DUI on a horse. Is it possible? You may be surprised to learn that are mounted on a horse with DUI charges against any person during the year 2009 was (contrary to popular belief, there is no such thing as DUI, within the period, traveling in the sense that the dominant mode of travel). Which reminds me, is a sort of a special form of tough questions to try to read anything. I do not want to talk about DUI law in 1880. This is an analysis of current DUI laws, and travel, which is aA horse, you can get drunk today.

Because I'm a Seattle, Washington DUI lawyer, I'm going to Seattle DUI law in my example, usage analysis, if you can a DUI on a horse. And if I can not be sure, this could be one of the few occasions when the law Seattle is actually the same for all fifty states. If it is true, but needs, I ask you if you have a question, DUI and you are not in Seattle, please contact a DUI lawyer in your countryand discuss their problems with them. The laws of one state to another can be different, to make an informed decision, one must know the laws of your state.

We will prepare the ground for a DUI test horses. It begins, like any other day. Go to your friends, riding their horses (who lives in one of these new developments built in the bridle paths throughout the subdivision). But to be before you drive, you will see the Mariner's game on television. Duringgame, because it is a Saturday and all, choose a couple of beers to drink. And some have become ten. At the end of the game, who are very drunk, but the saddle anyway.

About half of the journey that you're in a residential street at the intersection of the streets, when a Seattle police officer stands up and asks what to do. I tell you, and he asks her to get the horse to continue our research. Although he did not realize until that moment stillMariner has all its' s on your computer, including uniforms (I am a big fan). How about the police officer in Seattle for you, ask if you have been drinking. She says yes, then with the fall of field sobriety tests to determine a particular field. And then he was arrested for DUI in Seattle.

When you talk with his lawyer DUI in Seattle, finally, he says, can be obtained immediately dropped the charges. But how? Consider the DUI statute to find out.

RCW 46.61.502 indicates that drinking and driving in Operationa vehicle in this state under the influence of intoxicating alcohol or drugs. Seattle DUI can be demonstrated in three ways: (1) a breath test, 08 (2) signs of intoxication from alcohol or drugs, or (3) symptoms of poisoning by drugs and alcohol.

The analysis does not begin there, because it was a step above. The definition of "vehicle". And the vehicle, as you can imagine that includes many things - but all have engines and wheels to movebecause of some kind of machinery. I'd spell out the definition of vehicle, but it is too long. But, I can tell you one thing, vehicle does not include horses.

So, there you go. It is impossible to be convicted of Seattle DUI on a horse. It doesn't work because a horse doesn't qualify as a vehicle, and operating a vehicle is a necessary element of the crime. This does not mean, however, that you could not be charged with other crimes, or that you should ride a horse drunk. If you didn't I know it really hurts to fall from a horse.

One of my tasks long worked closely with a financial adviser and a former lawyer. I learned a lot of both. The most important thing I learned is that the long-term care is not only to choose a home care agency or health at home. The long-term care is also on the legal and financial issues that often arise when families are trying to help aging loved decisions.

Most families can not afford private carehome care or in-home care for very long. This wasn’t planned for or budgeted for prior to retirement. Planning ahead is getting more popular, but for our older generations, it wasn’t an option for various reasons.

Because of this I try to make sure I know what all of the financial options are for seniors and their family members. One of them is something that not many of us understand very well- a reverse mortgage.

Reverse mortgages have received a lot of press lately. NBC Nightly News, ABC, CBS .... Not all the stories of performance. Of course there are pros and cons of reverse mortgages, but interesting enough to support two great organizations and support they need, especially for the elderly, long-term care. The National Council on Aging and AARP to support both the use of reverse mortgages in certain circumstances.

A study by the National Council on Aging (NCOA sample of publication), that reverse mortgages can be used for more than 13 million Americans pay for long-termThe costs of home care, is to remain independent in their homes longer.
The "use his house to stay at home: the development of reverse mortgages for the balance of long-term care", published by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and financed by the payment of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, also shows how reverse mortgages to relieve the financial pressure, not only to individuals and families, but also for programs of state and federal government. Increased marketReverse mortgages save Medicaid $ 3.3 billion (four per cent absorption) by 2010.

A guide inverse is also known as a house converted into an equity loan. These loans are guaranteed by the federal government (HUD and FHA). To use the elderly over 62 years are entitled to federal programs. This is a "non-recourse loan, meaning that the heirs of the former are responsible for the repayment of the loan. Indeed, a reverse mortgage, which did not have to pay isif the two owners (assuming a permanent pair), the house or dies. No monthly payment is necessary. The principal will pay.

Finally, the Seniors money from mortgage reverse is tax free and does not interfere with the SSI or Medicare benefits.
As with any financial transaction, there are other things to see, and mortgages are not for everyone otherwise.

For adults, or couples who have difficulty qualifying rounds, this canis a security cable. Some older people are the extra money for home care, adult care during the day to pay for prescription drugs, to repay the debt of credit card payments and provide emergency home repairs, to live in comfort and security.

Find a specialist in reverse mortgages in your area and talk to them. Can help pay for the care of any age more time than expected.
