Airsoft weapons and side arms are the most crucial thing when it comes to a firefight. Of course, tactical positioning and strategy come into play, but everyone needs a gun that can deliver when the time comes. And choosing an Airsoft weapon can be kind of hard, especially with all the different types of rifles, shotguns, ARs, and semi-automatics to choose from. So what we've decided to do here is simple. We want to provide a guide to selecting the perfect weapon for you. Let's get started!
When getting into the sport of Airsoft, it can be somewhat difficult deciding on what gun to purchase mainly if you've never shot one before. Things like play style and ability come into the picture. Are you hardcore, relentless, lose trigger kind of guy? Or are you more of a conservative, shoot-to-kill player who lays back and picks off his targets? Depending on what kind of player you are, this will help you decide on what type of gun to get in relevance to your play style. Let's go over some roles that most Airsoft players run by. And we will discuss some guns of which this part may want to choose from.
This role is probably one of my personal preferences. A leader/auxiliary unit needs something fast, light, and automatic. Most of the times, these players will be upfront and in action. They need to be able to light someone up with plastic in a heartbeat. A good choice of weapon would be any assault rifle something automatic with decent accuracy. Just pull the trigger and let it rain.
Sniper/Designated Marksman
When playing a role like a marksman, you need to make sure you have a hell of an aim. The marksman is usually someone who lays back, hidden and picks off players with a high-power, long-range rifle. So if you're not into getting rained on by the ARs, you should probably find a sniper rifle.
You can find a lot of intersting reviews about Air Rifle Pro here.
Support Gunner
Support gunners are usually the mid-range players. They stick around the leader and are rather sneaky with their approach of the enemy. These gunners use a unique type of guns such as a mini-gun, or a SAW style gun. When the enemy is spotted, its finger on the trigger until they're out of sight. Mini-guns and SAW weapons don't have excellent accuracy at all. So if you like to shoot and have money for excessive amounts of ammunition, grab a support type gun.
Spending Money
Everyone in the Airsoft industry knows that it's not a cheap hobby. However, depending again on your role, it can vary significantly. Anyone can acquire a high-quality Airsoft gun for around, say, $100. This isn't going to be the best gun by any means, but if you're just looking to aim and shoot at some of your friends, don't spend more than that. Airsoft guns can be expensive, up to $1,500, so depending on your die-hard attitude about the sport, we wouldn't suggest spending any more than $300 on a gun (and that's pushing it).

As you may know, we at KaBOOM! are big fans of ice cream -- and it's not just because we were the first nonprofit to have its own Ben & Jerry's flavor. Ice cream, in moderation, brings joy to children's lives. And it is best relished outside, after a day full of outdoor play.
So of course we were excited to learn that July is National Ice Cream Month! Why not pay homage to this exquisitlely frosty treat by making your own? You don't need any fancy equipment -- just ice, salt, tape, and a coffee can.
The best part? Your kids can get a healthy dose of outdoor play while they're at it. Here's how:

Advice for troubleshooting Group Policy for Windows Server 2003
A rundown of expert-preferred tools and procedures for troubleshooting Microsoft Group Policy.
Troubleshooting issues arising out of local security policy or group policy can be a challenge.
If a change does not seem to take effect on a system, first log out then back on. Next, reboot the system. If the change still fails to take effect, examine the RSoP for the local system or access Help and Support Center (see the previous tip on RSoP for details). It is possible that some other Group Policy Object setting is overriding your intended change. This will be especially true if you made your change only to a local security policy when the system is a domain client.
I can't count the times these RSoP viewers have saved me. Being able to quickly find the effective setting on a specific policy element and know immediately in which exact GPO that setting was defined will save you hours of blind searching.
And don't forget the new Group Policy Management Console for Windows 2003 Active Directory domains. I discussed that tool in a tip a few weeks ago.
Many problems arise from the fact that changes to the local security policy may take immediate effect, only to be repealed once the domain (site or OU) Group Policy Object is refreshed after 90 minutes. Changes that seem to work immediately, but get lost after an hour and a half are usually due to this artifact. Once again, only make changes to an AD container GPO for domain clients and to the local security policy for standalone or workgroup clients.
When troubleshooting a GPO-related issue, first attempt to boot the system without a domain connection using a local user account. Check the local security policy to see if it has conflicting or incorrect settings. Keep in mind that GPOs are applied in LSDOU order, so even if there is a bad setting in the local security policy, it may be overwritten by an AD container level GPO.

Meaningful minutes
- The US Federal Reserve minutes showed Fed uncertainty about the new abnormal of US policy. The incoming administration is not following policy norms, and that uncertainty creates uncertainty about the Fed's reaction. A gradual approach still seems likely, as fiscal policy is really a 2018 story.
- The Fed did acknowledge the tightness of the US labor market. We get the ADP payrolls data today, a big data prequel to Friday's employment report. Unfortunately, like most big data attempts at predicting macro figures, the data is not especially reliable.
- The UK and the US offer service sector sentiment opinion polls (PMI and ISM). The UK service sector does seem to be somewhat overlooked in EU negotiations (politicians have a romanticized view of trade focused on tangible "things"). In the US, rising labor costs may have a bearing on service sector sentiment.
- The euro has risen in the wake of the Fed minutes. This is consistent with capital flow issues. The US needs USD 2.7bn a day in capital inflows. If investors choose to "wait and see" what happens with policy, then the inflow is not forthcoming and the US dollar weakens as a result.

Watch Judd Hirsch, Andy Kindler and Marc Maron in a new clip from "Maron"
Posted by Melissa Locker on
In this clip from last week's episode of "Maron," we met Marc Maron's dad Larry, played by television legend Judd Hirsch. The onetime doctor was stripped of his medical license and is now peddling a vitamin supplement called "Maron's Mix" that promises not only five hours of energy but also 72 hours of erection. He wants Marc to shill the drugs all over LA as his West Coast rep, because obviously Marc's comedy career isn't going anywhere. Especially if Larry keeps interrupting all of Marc's podcasts to try and sell vitamins to the podcast guests like Jeff Garlin. In this clip, Andy Kindler, who you may recognized from "Everybody Loves Raymond" and the judges' table on "Last Comic Standing," plays Marc's gym buddy who is conscripted to duty when Larry shows up in an RV and starts disturbing the neighborhood immediately. Luckily Kindler is there to entertain the gawkers who assembled to witness Maron's dad's ruckus.
Watch now and tune in on Friday for a new episode of "Maron" with guest stars Ileana Douglas at 10/9c:

Becoming a Nevada Resident
Nevada Resident and Reduced Tuition Programs
A non-resident who enrolls in an institution of the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) shall continue to be classified as a non-resident student throughout the student's enrollment, unless the student demonstrates that his/her previous residence has been abandoned and that the student is a Nevada Resident. Residency of dependent students is established by the domicile of parents or guardians. As long as students remain dependent on non-resident parents or guardians, they cannot qualify for resident status. Residency of an independent student will generally be established by their physical domicile and residency in Nevada for at least 12 months immediately prior to the date of matriculation.
If a transfer student is coming from a NSHE institution and it appears that the student is considered Out of State:
A student can show Nevada Residency by asking their NSHE institution to write a letter (on school letterhead) stating they took classes at their institution and were considered a Nevada resident while they were in attendance. They can fax the letter to admissions and records at (775) 784-4283. Please ensure your full name and student ID are on the letter. Once we have received the letter, your tuition in MyNEVADA will reflect in-state residency.
Nevada Resident
A student is considered a "Resident" of the state of Nevada for tuition purposes under the following conditions:
- An enrollee or graduate of a Nevada high school.
- A member of the Armed Forces of the United States stationed in Nevada as a permanent duty assignment, pursuant to military orders, or the spouse, family or legal guardian of such a person.
- A student who is financially dependent upon a family member or legal guardian who has been a resident of the state of Nevada 12 months prior to the first day of instruction of the semester in which the student intends to enroll.
- A student who is financially independent and has established residence in the state of Nevada for a minimum of 12 months prior to the first day of instruction of the semester in which the student intends to enroll.
- A financially independent person who has relocated or transferred to Nevada specifically for the primary purpose of permanent full-time employment or to establish a business in Nevada, or the spouse, or dependents of such a person.
- A student who has been classified as an in-state resident by another NSHE institution.
- For full details about Nevada Residency please visit the Board of Regents Handbook, Title 4 Chapter 15: Regulations for Determining Residency and Tuition Charges
Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE)
Please go to Non-resident Reduced Tuition Programs for the most up-to-date information.
Nevada Advantage
Please go to Non-resident Reduced Tuition Programs for the most up-to-date information.
Child of Alumni reduced tuition program is no longer available. Students already on a Child of Alumni reduced tuition program must not have a break in enrollment (fall and spring semesters) to remain on the program. Once a student has a break in enrollment, the student will be moved to an Out of State tuition program.
Reduced Non-Resident Tuition Program Restrictions
A student enrolled at an NSHE institution under a discounted tuition program (WUE, Nevada Advantage, Good Neighbor, or Children of Alumni) must disenroll from the program and pay full nonresident tuition for at least 12 months before being able to reclassify as a Nevada resident.
Good Neighbor
This program is no longer available. If you currently enrolled as Good Neighbor you must remain continuously enrolled for the regular semesters in order to retain the reduced tuition benefit. If there is a break in enrollment, you will lose Good Neighbor and will not be eligible to receive it again and the student will be moved to an Out of State tuition program.
Changes to Nevada Residency Policy
The Board's following action applies retroactively only to students who were new to the Nevada system Fall 1995 through Spring 2004 Semester.
On January 30, 2004, the Board of Regents unanimously approved an amendment that would bring its residency requirements in line with Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS 396.540). Nevada law states that individuals whose families (defined as natural or adoptive parent or legal guardian) reside in Nevada may gain resident status if the family has established bona fide residency in Nevada at the date of the student's matriculation. Individuals whose families live outside of the state may gain resident status if the individual has been a bona fide resident of the state of Nevada at least twelve months prior to matriculation.
Residency Application:
- The University of Nevada, Reno Residency Application is required to be submitted no later than the second Friday before the start of the term in which the student seeks to be classified as a Nevada resident for tuition purposes.

I am a week behind on Memorial Day, and it is my own fault! I couldn't figure out why my photo stream wouldn't work for the last several days until I realized I had my 3G turned on all week! Oops! Anyway, I had to hit the salon to get my hairs did and after that we headed down the shore to my parents' house in Ocean City. This was Greyson's first trip to the shore and he was definitely loving the beach! Avery had the best time digging holes in the sand, being buried in the sand, and running away from the waves screaming her little head off. Greyson sat and watched the waves like a happy little guy. It was scorching hot so he had to skip out on the second day. We hit up some yummy restaurants and the boardwalk for rides and fatty beach foods. All in all, it was a fun weekend away in the sun!
And that is our fun summer kick off in pictures after my extended brain fart! (mommy brain?!) Hope everyone has a sunny and fabulous week!

Tales From a Home Inspector:
The Good, the Bad and the Weird
When buying a home, few items on the checklist are as important as the home inspection. Experienced home inspector Bill, who asked that we not use his real name, warns that a buyer is at risk for winding up in a huge mess when he waives his right to an inspection. Bill doesn't automatically assume the seller is aware of the flaws when he finds problems with a home because, "you live in a home for so many years and you get used to things wrong with your house." However, some sellers aren't simply being absent-minded. They're downright deceptive. He says, "It's too easy for a seller to not say anything about the house. They'll pretend, 'We didn't know anything about that leak.'"
Over the years, Bill has seen some weird conditions. He says, "I don't write up anything cosmetic. One time I saw a place with bright blue carpeting and purple walls. I had to ignore it." On two occasions, he saw peanut butter slathered on leaky pipes. "Once it was chunky peanut butter, and the jar was still there. I don't know where people got the idea that peanut butter will stop a leak." On another home inspection, Bill opened a closet and was shocked to see a huge boa constrictor inside. After his scare, Bill found out the snake was the home owner's pet. And he's seen worse. (Cue scary music.)
Also See: 10 Areas to Have Inspected
Home Horror Stories
Bill says during the worst home inspection he's done, he discovered a dead dog that had been missing from the family. "He had been trapped behind the water heater in the utility room. The living conditions and the stench were horrendous."
Bill describes another inspection of a home that was in the most deplorable condition he had ever seen. He says, "The house was literally in a collapsing situation. But a young, single lady with a small child wanted to move in because she loved the back yard."
The woman's parents accompanied her to the home inspection, and her father was alarmed by the dangerous condition of the house. Bill says her father took him out to the driveway and said, "Do anything you can do to talk her out of this."
Bill says, "I told her, 'You're not going to be out here in the yard most of the time, and the house is dangerous to live in." It had major structural damage. The walls were cracked in half horizontally and the top half of the house had shifted off its frame three inches in every room. This meant the top half was sitting off-kilter from the bottom half of the house. I had never seen anything like it."
Potential for Bad Apples
Bill says that home inspection only emerged as a thriving business in the mid-'80s, so it's a relatively new field. "In many states, there's no licensure required yet, so there's greater potential for bad apples. Anyone with a business card and a telephone could go into business as a home inspector."
Bill recommends finding a home inspector who is a member of the American Society of Home Inspectors. He says, "ASHI.org is the best place to get a home inspector who is trained and educated." He says passing a proctored national exam is required to become a member of ASHI, plus yearly continuing education classes are compulsory for members to remain certified.
Bill cautions home buyers if they don't do their research, they could wind up with a home inspector who is, "a Joe blow on the weekend who does this part time. You don't know what you're going to get." Bill had noticed his neighbor across the street was getting his home inspected. The neighbor told Bill that he had to loan the inspector a flashlight, and he neglected to bring a ladder with him.

Icy Dock EZConvert Air HDD/SDD Converter Review

The EZConvert Air is comprised of the same form factor of a 3.5" hard drive, such as the outer dimension, location of the SATA connector, and the mounting holes. This allows users to fit it perfectly inside any standard 3.5" SATA/SAS drive bay. Icy Dock indicates that any system that uses 3.5" SATA HDDs is compatible with the EZConvert Air.Read more

Although the 2.5" bays are reserved for SSDs or HDDs, the 3.5" bay can be filled with drives, USB 3.0 hubs, multimedia card readers, HDD/SSD mobile racks, or HDD/SSD brackets.Read more

The bracket can accommodate all 2.5" drives between 7 and 9.5mm and features tool-less installation (unless the optional reinforcing screws are desired). The EZ-Fit Lite features an open-air design that provides passive cooling for the drives through side vents and slightly elevated ridges to keep the drives raised within the housing. It also has 60 screw holes strategically placed over its casing to accommodate most chassis designs.Read more

OWC Mercury Helios PCIe Enclosure Review
The OWC Mercury Helios is a PCIe enclosure that supports one half-length, full-height PCIe card, interfaces via Thunderbolt and is designed as a notebook companion for creative professionals who need robust performance for their workstation or even on-the-go. With this design incorporating Thunderbolt, OWC is targeting users who have typically found themselves relegated to their desktop workstation for applications that require a PCIe port. The Helios removes this barrier and is lightweight enough at just 2.4 pounds and has small enough dimensions to make it simple to pack up and tote along for business. OWC sells the enclosure bare or with a range of capacities from their OWC Mercury Accelsior E2 PCIe SSD. We recently reviewed the first Mercury Accelsior, but with the new Accelsior E2, OWC added two 6Gb/s eSATA ports on top of the same performance the first Accelsior provided.Read more

William Woods University is offering St. Joseph area residents the opportunity to pursue a master of education (M.Ed.) degree without quitting work. The program will begin with an orientation at 5:30 p.m. July 7 at a location to be announced.
Prospective students are encouraged to contact the university's Graduate and Adult Studies program prior to then, but walk-ins will be accepted. Call 1-800-995-3199 or contact WWU by e-mail at email@example.com.
The 36-credit-hour M.Ed. program has two tracks—administration, which is intended to provide the fundamental skills necessary for effective school leadership, and curriculum and instruction, which is for teachers who wish to enhance their classroom skills.
William Woods University's program helped Anita Gilliland "develop professionally and academically, while at the same time allowing me to have a life outside of graduate school." Gilliland, who completed her M.Ed. in Jefferson City, said, "William Woods puts a friendly face on graduate school."
Employing a model of accelerated learning developed especially for the convenience of the working adult, these educational programs are structured so that a degree can be completed in as few as 22 months.
William Woods offers degree programs that utilize a cohort model, emphasizing learning through student-directed study groups of three to five students.
Gilliland has high praise for the cohort program. "The William Woods cohort program allowed me to continue teaching full-time while attending classes one night a week. Because we were part of a cohort, we were able to develop friendships and close working relationships with classmates and professors," she said.
"Cohort" describes a group of people who collaborate to reach a common goal. WWU's program utilizes the diversity of the individual members to broaden the learning experience of the
class as a whole as they work together. The school recognizes that learning can and does take place
outside of the classroom and that theoretical knowledge is only useful if applied to real-life on-the-job situations.
Classes meet once a week in the evening for four hours. Study groups meet outside of class to prepare projects and assignments before the upcoming week.
"With the teamwork approach of using study groups and projects within the
cohort model, students can draw on a greater pool of ideas, and they have the opportunity
to learn quickly that the effectiveness of one person can be greatly enhanced by utilizing the other members of the group," said Betty R. Tutt, WWU vice president.
Because of the nature of programming—focusing effort on one course at a time—90 percent of all students finish their program successfully. Each course normally runs six weeks.
"William Woods is a leader when it comes to designing quality programs for nontraditional adult students. Everything we do is specifically designed to help adults succeed in reaching their goals as efficiently as possible," said Tutt.
In addition to the M.Ed., William Woods offers several other Graduate and Adult Studies programs, including an associate of arts degree in liberal studies, the ACCESS program of general education, a bachelor of science in computer and information management, a bachelor of science in management (BSM), a BSM with human resources emphasis, a bachelor of science in marketing, a bachelor of science in paralegal studies, a master of business administration (MBA), an MBA with accounting emphasis, an MBA with health management emphasis, an MBA with human resources emphasis and a specialist of education in school administration.
William Woods can tailor any of its programs for a particular business or community. More information is available on the William Woods website at www.williamwoods.edu.

True Blood draws True Blue Fans through Social Media
Are you a Trubie? If you're a die-hard True Blood fan, you're probably mourning the end of the series, even as you eagerly dive into the final season. Anticipating the general fever-pitch excitement that was sure to come as they brought the popular show to a close, HBO has been promoting the series across social media.
Using #TrueToTheEnd, and #TrueBlood, HBO has attracted fans to the show's Facebook and Twitter pages in droves. The final season started on Sunday, June 22nd, with HBO and Facebook partnering to create a social TV marathon that led up to the premiere. This social media innovation highlighted fan favorite moments from the Facebook page, which has 11 million fans, in the on-air broadcast. HBO says it's the first time a network has "integrated an extensive, historic look at a social networking community," using five years of user-generated Facebook content to incorporate fan insights and "bring the social stats to life."
Here's how it went down. Starting on June 16th, HBO2 aired a week-long True Blood "True to the End Marathon," with a full season airing each night, as a lead up to the final season. At the beginning of each season of the marathon, Michael McMillian, who plays Rev. Steve Newlin on the show, hosted a special themed segment, drawn from Facebook findings about things like everyone's favorite villain, or whom fans think should end up with Sookie. The themes included "True Love," "True Death," "True Pride," "True Dangers," "True Power" and "True Scene Stealers," and fans were invited to discuss what they've loved most about the show, using #TrueToTheEnd.
2 hours. Tell us how you've remained #TrueToTheEnd. http://t.co/iNrceXbqzK #TrueBlood
— True Blood (@TrueBloodHBO) June 22, 2014
On June 20th, the True Blood fervor continued on Facebook, where fans could watch an exclusive trailer.
So what's your take, True Blood fans? Did the Facebook and Twitter promotion create a higher level of interaction with the show, or is it just a lot of hype? And while we're on the subject, how do you want the show to end? And who should end up with Sookie?

The blue whale lives most of its life in solitude, until they're ready to mate, of course. They migrate to warmer waters to a particular place closer to the equator and begin courtship, much like humans flock to clubs and flirt. The courtship behaviour of blue whales begins with male following the female around.
If another male approaches the female-male pair, all three will race with the males fighting each other to prove themselves to the female as if they were on an oceanic Fury Road. Once the female has chosen a mate, the pair rolls around each other and then swims deep into the ocean.
As they are swimming upward, the male penetrates the female with his 10 foot long penis, which you don't see because it is usually stored in his genital slit. Unlike other species, blue whales do not have one partner every breeding season; females will often have many partners every time they wish to reproduce. It sounds as if the females are doing the most they can to create offspring. So – why are they still endangered after the end of the whaling era?
It takes a lot of time and energy for a female blue whale to have a calf. Females will eat and build up stores of energy for 3 to 4 years and the gestation period is approximately 1 year on top of that. And this is all in combination with climate change negatively affecting their food supply (krill). Unfortunately, it's going to take a while before the blue whale leaves the endangered animals list. But I will leave you with some good news: the blue whale population is increasing.

By Sgt. Lucas Hoskins, 41st Fires Bde. PAOJune 14, 2010
FORT HOOD, Texas- Col. John Thomson, commanding officer of the 41st Fires Brigade, his wife Holly, as well as the Heart of Texas West Point Society, hosted a reception at the Thomson's residence for the U.S. Military Academy cadets participating in the Cadet Troop Leading Training program, June 10.
The reception presented the cadets an opportunity to relax and talk with former West Point graduates and senior leaders.
Thomson said that the program is designed to give the cadets a feel for what life in the Army is like outside of the classroom.
"West Point is not what people like to call the real Army, so it lets the cadets have the real-life experience of what it's like in the real world to lead troops," said 1st Lt. Dave Meador, a platoon leader in Battery C, 2nd Battalion, 20th Field Artillery Regiment.
Meador, a 2008 graduate of West Point, along with other platoon leaders on post, are sponsoring some of the cadets enrolled in CTLT.
"I'm grateful for this opportunity," said Cadet Jonathan Greeny, a sophomore at West Point. "I knew I wanted to be in the Army and I knew I wanted to be an officer. Now, I get the chance to do that and better myself as a leader. School is completely different from Fort Hood, it's good that we get to see what goes on behind the scenes instead of people trying to sell us the Army."
Cadet Aaron Greer, a native of Calypso, Mont., said his first days here almost put him in shock.
"This has completely exceeded my expectations. "I've learned that you have to rely so much on your Soldiers and NCO's because as a lieutenant you really don't know what you're doing," he said.
When asked what his favorite experience of his time on Fort Hood was Greer replied, "Fort Hood introduced me to [a new strength and conditioning fitness methodology]. Being here has completely changed my perspective of what physical fitness means."
Greeny, who also serves as a manager for the West Point hockey team said he has learned a lot about Army life since being here.
"I've learned to trust in the NCO Corps. They obviously have the experience and are the backbone," said Greeny. "We have to use them and their experience as much as possible to build ourselves as leaders."
Among distinguished guests attending the reception was Maj. Gen. Dan Allyn, commanding officer of the 1st Cavalry Division, who gave his remarks to the cadets.
"You will find you could be like me in 1981 when I showed up to my first battalion, and I was an "Army of One" as far as West Point graduates go. So this comradery that you have enjoyed for the last four years, bottle it up. You need to learn to wrap your arms around your brothers and sisters in arms, regardless of their commissioning source," said Allyn.
As encouragement for the cadets to keep an open mind after graduation Allyn said, "If someone had told me when I was a cadet or a lieutenant that I would still be here going into my 30th year of service, I would have told them they were crazy." He also added, "I didn't join the Army for a long time; I joined the Army for a good time. Now I've been having a good time for a mighty long time."
This marks the first of three iterations of cadets to conduct CTLT on Fort Hood this year. The second will consist of ROTC cadets and the third will again be West Point students.
West Point graduate Richard Powell, who now serves as the III Corps historian and is also a member of the HOTWPS, echoed Allyn's sentiments.
"This event gives the cadets a chance to talk to higher ranking officers that have been in their shoes in a relaxed environment. They get to share their experiences with the cadets and hopefully help to guide them in their final years of school."
Cadets were invited to have as much food and drink as they pleased and were encouraged to talk to the officers in attendance. The cadets are scheduled to return to New York, June 16.

Are you one of the millions of homeowners who short-sold a house in the last few years? If yes, starting Aug. 16, you'll have to wait a little while longer for your second chance at homeownership.
Short-selling a property is selling a home for less than what's owed, pure and simple. The reason it's called a short sale is because the lender is "shorted" the original amount owed them. Unfortunately, short sales have nothing to do with how long they actually take, the irony is they actually take longer to close than a traditional sale or foreclosure sale. Anytime you short-sell a property, you can expect the item to remain on your credit report for seven years, so it's critical you positively maintain your other credit obligations to offset the credit effects of the short sale.
The Upcoming Change
As it presently stands, you can buy a primary home, second home/vacation property or even an income property with 20% down just two years after a short sale. But the waiting time to obtain a new mortgage will increase from two years out of a short sale with 20% down to four years out of a short sale with 20% down. This change will affect homebuyers whose loan applications are dated Aug. 16 or later.
This change could be devastating for many homebuyers.
Take, for example, the would-be homebuyer who is currently house hunting, pre-approved with a conventional mortgage with a previous short sale just two years ago. That homebuyer will have three choices:
- Wait two more years, earmarking the upcoming four-year waiting time frame.
- Wait one more year to procure an FHA Loan.
- Get into contract immediately or, if refinancing, apply for a mortgage prior to Aug. 16.
The New Waiting Times
Other factors usually come into play during a short sale such as the possibility of a bankruptcy or another property with occupancy concerns. Here are the waiting times when seeking a new mortgage, with consideration to most credit issues.
Conventional Loans
All conventional loans must go through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's automated underwriting system each lender uses when originating a new mortgage.
If you have a foreclosure: You'll have to wait seven years from the date the foreclosure was completed and transferred back to the lender to the date of the credit report. You can be eligible for a conventional loan three years after foreclosure with extenuating circumstances — such as death of a wage earner, illness or job loss — however, the loan must still pass an automated underwrite, which red flags a previous foreclosure in the past seven years.
Short sale/deed in lieu-short sale: The lender agrees to accept payoff for less than what is owed on the note; the deed-in-lieu borrower assigns the title to the lender and avoids foreclosure.
- Seven-year wait with less than 10% down of primary residence
- Four years with 10% down on the purchase of a primary residence
- Four years with 20% down on the purchase of a primary, secondary or investment property purchase
- Two years with extenuating circumstances, only with 20% down
If a Chapter 7 bankruptcy borrower does not pay any debts owed, it's a four-year wait from the discharged date with the re-established credit and no other derogatory credit, but a two-year wait is possible only with extenuating circumstances.
If Chapter 13 bankruptcy debts are paid back through court order and scheduled payment plans, and the mortgage applicant receives bankruptcy court approval to enter into the mortgage transaction, it's a two-year wait with extenuating circumstances.
FHA Loans
Foreclosure: It's a three-year waiting time to purchase a primary home from the date the foreclosure was completed and transferred back to the lender to the date of the credit report.
Short sale: Three years to purchase a primary home from the date of title transfer.
Bankruptcy Chapter 7: Two years from the date of discharge to reestablishing credit with no derogatory credit. If a property is surrendered in the Chapter 7 bankruptcy, it is considered to be possible foreclosure, which could increase the waiting time.
Bankruptcy Chapter 13: It's a one-year wait with a scheduled payment plan on your liabilities factored into debt-to-income ratio, and the mortgage applicant receives bankruptcy court approval to enter into the mortgage transaction.
VA Loans
Foreclosure: Two years from the date the foreclosure was completed and transferred back to the lender.
Deed in lieu: One- to two-year wait with reestablished credit and acceptable extenuating circumstances.
Short sale: Two years from the date the previous sale closed and was transferred to the new owner.
Bankruptcy Chapter 7: Two-year wait.
Bankruptcy Chapter 13: One-year wait with bankruptcy court approval to enter into the mortgage transaction.
As you can see, if you have had a previous short sale, in combination with any other lending risk factor, your waiting time to buy a house might be longer than you think. Be sure to communicate with a lender who can accurately give you the appropriate waiting time-frame for your particular credit situation. Lenders will look at each event, and a first-in/first-out order when reviewing your mortgage application. A previous short sale in the past few years may mean having to wait a little while longer, or having monthly PMI associated with your mortgage payment (which is required for an FHA loan).
If you've had credit problems in recent years and you hope to buy a house soon, it's important to get up to speed on your current credit situation. Pull your credit reports to assess your overall situation (you can pull them for free once a year), noting any mistakes or derogatory items. It's also helpful to get in the habit of monitoring your credit scores to track your progress over time. You can use a free service like Credit.com, where you get two free credit scores updated every 14 days, along with an overview of what's influencing your scores and a plan to improve them.

Nortel out, Cisco in, as 2012 London Olympics sponsor
As E.T. would say, "Ouch."
Nortel received another black eye this week when the organizers of the 2012 London Summer Olympics announced that it has replaced the bankrupt Canadian company with Cisco as technology sponsor and official supplier of network infrastructure for the games. The move will cost Olympic organizers $20 million in revenue because Cisco is signing on as a lower-tier sponsor. Nortel was replaced because of the uncertainty surrounding the company.
Nortel has a similar deal in place with the 2010 winter games in Vancouver, but that deal appears to be safe because buildout of the network is 85% completed.

Jökulsárlón is a picturesque glacier lagoon, situated on the southern part of Vatnajökull glacier on Highway 1 (the ring road), 370 kilometers east of Reykjavik. The Lagoon is one of Iceland's natural wonders.
The Lagoon is over 200 meters deep and is Iceland's largest and deepest glacier lagoon. It is located between Skaftafell National Park and the town of Höfn.
The lake was created in 1934 and has steadily grown since then. Following the massive melting of the glacier, large chunks of ice constantly break off Vatnajökull glacier and float on the lagoon until the glacier river sweeps them off to sea.
Due to the lake's proximity to the sea, salt water constantly makes its way to the lagoon, and there are fears that the lake will, eventually become, a fjord. The Icelandic government is committing great effort in order to prevent it.
The Lagoon is located near the ring road and the buses that run between Reykjavík and Höfn usually stop there. There is a visitors' center and cafeteria.
The main attraction in the lagoon area and one of the most unique and certainly the best ways to see Jökulsárlón is to take a cruise in an amphibious boat that sails between the icebergs. A vehicle that drives into the lagoon and as soon as the water is deep enough, functions as a boat. During the cruise, you can often notice sea lions basking in the sun on the glaciers themselves, learn the differences between normal ice and iceberg ice and even taste it. This cruise is approximately 45 minutes long and tickets may be purchased on site.
Please visit: http://icelagoon.is/ for more details.
Breiðárlón, meaning "Wide River Lagoon" is a less popular glacier located just a few kilometers west of Jökulsárlón . The lagoon is easily recognizable on the map and has signs that help you access the location via a short unpaved road. It is definitely recommended to stop off and visit Breiðárlón , which offers worthy preparation for visiting the more famous Jökulsárlón lagoon.

Statement of the President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker, the President of the European Council Donald Tusk and the Prime Minister of Australia Malcolm Turnbull
We strongly condemn the atrocious terrorist attacks in Paris and stand united in solidarity with France.
We are determined to defend our common freedoms and values and we are jointly committed to drive the counter-terrorism agenda, including in the G20.
We agreed today to deepen the EU-Australia relationship which is rooted in our common interests, values and heritage.
We welcomed the finalisation of the negotiations of the EU-Australia Framework Agreement and committed to pursue its full and swift implementation.
We agreed that the recent EU-Australia Framework Participation Agreement on Crisis Management is an important component of our growing Security and Defence relations.
We agreed to commence work toward the launch of negotiations for a Free Trade Agreement. We believe that a FTA will support sustainable growth and investment, open up new commercial opportunities and promote innovation and employment in Australia and the EU. We will aim to achieve a comprehensive and balanced outcome that liberalises trade, promotes productive investment flows and enhances the regulatory environment for business. We agreed that discussions to define the scope and approach to the negotiations should start as soon as possible. In parallel, we agreed to take steps to seek the necessary authorisation for the negotiations on the basis of a successful scoping.
We announced the establishment of the EU-Australia Leadership Forum to be launched in 2016, as a unique platform for European and Australian leaders to nurture the future of the EU-Australia relationship.
We stressed the importance of research and innovation as drivers of growth and employment in both the EU and Australia and we reaffirmed our commitment to collaborate in this field, in particular through the EU's Horizon 2020 program and Australia's Australian Research Council and National Health and Medical Research Council.
We discussed regional and global challenges we both face and agreed to continue working together to tackle them. The situation in Syria and Iraq remains of greatest concern. We agreed to intensify our cooperation to address the deteriorating humanitarian situation, to counter ISIL/Da'esh, and to respond to the challenge of foreign terrorist fighters. We confirmed our full support to a political solution to the conflict in Syria and to the launch of an inclusive Syrian dialogue. We reiterated the importance of parties in Libya agreeing rapidly on a Government of National Accord. We recognised the difficulties faced by the National Unity Government in Afghanistan, welcomed the progress made and urged the Government to continue its reform agenda. We confirmed our continued support to resolving the conflict in eastern Ukraine and agreed that sanctions against Russia taken in response to this conflict are clearly linked to the full implementation of the Minsk Agreements. We do not recognise and continue to condemn the illegal annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol by the Russian Federation and remain committed to non-recognition of the illegal annexation.
The displacement and mass movement of refugees and migrants is a global concern. We agreed that international protection must be granted to those entitled to it, in line with international law. Effective management of borders and fighting against migrant smuggling networks remain essential, as well as tackling the root causes of the current migration and refugee crisis.
We reaffirmed our commitment to secure a legally binding climate change agreement applicable to all parties at COP21 in Paris. It must establish a durable platform for limiting global temperature rise to below 2°C, including through a long-term goal, accountability and transparency of contributions, and allowing for strengthening of ambition over time.

While the Android app is not available on the Google Play Store, you can download Showbox apk file from several websites online that get you the most genuine links for this purpose.
To download Showbox apk smoothly, your device should have some features and specifications, here are these:
It is also noteworthy here that the app is compatible with almost all the operating systems. It can also be used directly online without having to download it.

When we say quality, we mean quality in every aspect of it. Every print that you get in the app is high in quality (HD). There is no complaint of a bad print or CAM and most of the movies you will get to watch will be available in 360p to 1080p.

In order to download Showbox App for all devices, you just have to choose the respective showbox apk file (i.e; for Android, iOS or Windows) to watch your favourite Movies, TV shows and Videos.
If your Showbox app keeps crashing repeatedly, it's a sign that your device has a clogged memory. Since ShowBox is a very heavy app in itself at 40 MBs, it ideally needs a lot of space in the memory. Even if you go in for a light mode, it is not less than 20 MBs which means you should have a sufficient space in the memory for the app to run smoothly. So make sure you delete the unwanted apps, files, videos etc. from the memory and try installing the app once again.
We all have experienced slow buffering now and then and know exactly how irritating it can get. There can be basically two things that can slow down the buffering speed. One is obviously the speed of your internet that can be easily taken care of by upgrading your plan by your ISP. The other reason can be a clogged memory that prevents the videos from buffering at a faster speed. To correct this issue, you must clear the cache and the internal memory. The buffered data goes to this part of the memory in your device.
The Blackberry OS supports the Android applications but for that they must be 10.2.1 or later. There are enough probabilities that you have not updated your software on Blackberry. Make sure you have the updated version of software on your Blackberry to be able to run not just Android but any other application for that matter.
As already quite popular in the internet community, the MX player does not support the ShowBox app any longer and nor it's casting features. So the only good thing to do is to replace the app with some other apps that support the casting features of ShowBox. You will need to uninstall the MX player which does not do any good to you and install other apps like GrowBox, GrowierBox or the GrowiestBox. These apps are easily available in the form of apk files on the internet and will do all that MX player had been doing for you till now.
To keep you informed, ads are an important part for the app since they help to get its developer enough money to improve the app and keep it updated from time to time. But if you just not enjoy the idea, the right thing for you to do is to get an ad blocker from the play store and install it. The other thing that can be done is to get ShowBox Lite mod apk in place of the original version. The Lite mod version of ShowBox is absolutely ad free.
