For Sale By Owner
Some sellers try to sell their home on their own, and this is referred to as "For Sale By Owner", or FSBO for short. Some sellers have success with this, and others have very little.
From A Seller's Standpoint
Marketing is just one of the benefits of using a REALTOR®. Using a REALTOR® gives your property more exposure than you could ever get on your own. We utilize the internet through our own personal websites as well as MLS®, one of the most frequently hit websites in the world. Most agents also use other forms of marketing such as the REALTOR® Showcase, take advantage of the opportunity to hold open houses, and do in-house marketing with other agents.
The other great advantage when you are selling your home is having a professional to guide you in pricing your home. The general public knows what a home is listed for, but it is harder to know what a house actually sells for. You may be leaving money on the table by not using a professional. Sure you save in not having to pay commissions, but the hassle and the possibility of not getting the most you can for your home in the current market should balance out and make using a Real Estate Agent a no-brainer.
REALTORS® have the advantage of weekly meetings and can preview new listings during these meeting so that each agent in attendance of the meeting can preview your home. This is an advantage to get your home instant exposure and is a great way to have your home showcased to other agents in our company.
Branding is also a key component, and using a REALTOR® gets you attention.
From A Buyer's Standpoint
As a buyer, if you see a property that has a sign in the window, in the newspaper, or online that is being sold by its owner, do not hesitate to ask me about the house. I have the ability to do additional research on the house for you, as well as contact the seller on your behalf and negotiate the terms for you. We can work my commissions into the price so that I am compensated for my work with you on all houses previously shown, and it will not make much of a difference on your payments. Commissions will need to be discussed on a case by case basis.
With a market as busy as our real estate market, there are a lot of "For Sale By Owner" homes on the market. As a buyer you need to be aware of potential risks with buying privately. From a buyer/seller perspective, you as the buyer are the one taking all of the risk in the deal. By working with a REALTOR® you are protected, as all of our forms are legal and we make all sellers fill out and sign a Property Condition Disclosure Statement which gives you ALL the information they are aware of; if it doesn't, you are protected under the contract, and your lawyer has the ability to fight on your behalf. If a vendor refuses to sign this form, there may be a reasonable explanation (ie: revenue property, therefore they don't know as much about it). We, as agents, will do research on the property, as research is essential.
So, beware of FSBO's. As buyers and as sellers you are not professionals, so why not use our experience and resources to do the job for you? It IS the largest investment of your lives. Would you use someone other than a professional to fix your car, perform surgery, etc?
We can help you with financing options, help you locate potential properties, provide you with objective information about the property and the area in which it is located, negotiate on your behalf with things such as price, financing, inclusion/exclusion of repairs, furnishing, fixtures, etc., and all of the final closing procedures such as communicating with the lenders, lawyers, vendors, and so on.

Nervous System Physiology
Virtually every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body is controlled and regulated by your nervous system. And while the complex chemical and electrical nature of this vast network is best left to others, here are four key things you should know:
Efferent Communications
Nerve impulses are sent from the brain out to the organs and tissues of your body.
Afferent Communications
Nerve impulses are sent back to the brain to make sure everything is working correctly.
Compressive Lesions
If spinal vertebrae pinch or choke nerve tissue, signals going from or to the affected organ or tissue can be diminished. (i.e., constipation.)
Facilitative Lesions
If spinal vertebrae chafe or irritate nerve tissue, signals going from or to the affected organ or tissue can be excited. (i.e., diarrhea.)
The nervous system is vulnerable where delicate nerve tissue comes into proximity with the moving bones of your spine. That's why we're interested in your spine!

The Cavalier King Charles was introduced to the United States in 1956 by W. Lyon Brown. Also known as the Cavalier or King Charles for short, this breed has grown to be a very sought after one in the United States for decades. The Cavalier King Charles descended from a toy spaniel and has appeared in many 16th, 17th, and 18th Century paintings of northern Europe throughout history. This breed was initially bred as a companion dog for royalty. They make great lapdogs and helped keep their owners warm on carriage rides. Rumor has it that King Charles II liked this breed so much that he refused to go anywhere without at least three of them.
The Cavalier King Charles' popularity is what it is today much thanks to its joyful, sweet, and loving personality. They have very calm and easy-going demeanors and adore their family. They are known to quickly form bonds with those they love and do excellent in families that have children and other pets in the home. They almost never show signs of aggression and are always anxiously waiting for you to get home. This is one of those breeds that will steal your heart in no time at all.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has a luxurious coat that is slick, smooth, soft, and silky. They can be found in several solid colors or blended colors such as Chestnut, tan, white, tricolor, and ruby. They do appreciate a thorough daily brushing which will help keep their beautiful coats smooth and clean. Many Cavalier King Charles Spaniels owners use a medium bristle brush which helps to evenly brush the dog's coat. A bi-weekly bath will help this dog look and feel her best. Nail clipping and routine teeth cleanings are also highly recommended.
For the first six months of their life, Cavalier King Charles pups should be fed three times a day. The feeding should be broken up into eight-hour intervals. A proper and nutritious diet is crucial in the early months of this dog's life for both physical and mental development. This breed does do well alone; however, owners must remember this is a companion dog who does thrive from human interaction.
Legend has it that Cavalier King Charles Spaniels were initially bred in England to keep their royal owners warm inside their drafty castles on chilly evenings. This breed was made famous by its association with King Charles II and has been linked with British royalty since the time of Queen Mary I.

The Serbian Orthodox Church in North and South America consists of five dioceses of the Church of Serbia (Serbian Patriarchate) that are governed by the Bishop of America and Canada Longin (New Gracanica Metropolitanate). The five dioceses of the Church in the Americas are: the Dioceses of Eastern America (Bp. Mitrophan), New Gracanica and Midwestern America (Bp. Mitrophan (Kodic)), and Western America (Bp. Maxim) in the United States, the Diocese of Canada (Bp. Georgije), and the Diocese of Buenos Aires (Metr. Amphilohije - Administrator).
The first Orthodox Serbian immigrants arrived in mid nineteenth century in California and Louisiana where they participated in the founding of some of the first Orthodox parishes in the United States. During the latter part of the nineteenth century and early twentieth century additional ethnic Serbs arrived. In 1892, the first Serbian Orthodox parish was established in Jackson, California by Archimandrite Sebastian Dabovich. He was the first Orthodox priest who was born in the United States. The Serbian parishes that formed during these time generally were served under the multi-ethnic Russian North American mission.
While Abp. Tikhon's plans included the consecration of ethnic auxiliary bishops, the first attempts at forming a Serbian diocese was made in 1913, under the then Metropolitanate of Belgrade. But, this attempt failed as the Metropolitanate did not respond to the requests from America and the 19 Serbian parishes remained with the Russian diocese.
With the disintegration of the American diocese following the Bolshevik coup in 1917 the diocese was unable to consecrate Archimandrite Mardarije (Uskokovic) as bishop for the Serbian parishes, in 1919, and the mission diocese requested his consecration by the new Serbian Patriarch Dimitriye. But, Pat. Dimitriye made Mardary head of the Rakovitsa Monastery instead. The American Serbians then asked the Patriarch to sent Bp. Nicolai (Velimirovich), which he did, with Archimandrite Mardary as his deputy. Serving as a parish priest in Chicago, Fr. Mardary did much of the organizational work for the diocese, including purchasing with his own funds the St Sava Monastery site in Libertyville, Illinois.
Archimandrite Mardary was called back to Belgrade and consecrated by the Serbian Patriarch Dimitriye in April 1926 as head of the Serbian Eastern Orthodox Diocese of America and Canada, After his consecration, Bp. Mardary returned to the United States on May 8, 1927. He convened the first Church Assembly in Chicago May 29-30, 1927. Against various problems Bp. Mardary continued organizing the diocese, although an advancing case of tuberculosis began to take its toll, resulting in his death on December 12, 1935 at the age of 46. In 1940, Bishop Dionisije was assigned to the Serbian Eastern Orthodox Diocese of America and Canada in the United States with Hieromonk Firmilian as his assistant.
When World War II enveloped the Serbian Patriarchate in 1941 with disruptions of peaceful life, first by the Nazis and then by the Communists, disorder came to the American diocese. Yet the need was evident that the size of the North American diocese prevented the ruling bishop from having close association with the far flung parishes. In 1963, The Holy Assembly of Bishops, at the request of the diocesan bishop, Bp. Dionisije, created three new dioceses and elected bishops to rule the diocese. However, this action also resulted in the deposition of Bp. Dionisije and a split among the Serbian Orthodox in America and litigation. Eventually, the reorganization was accomplished.
Through the years since 1963 a succession of bishops have served the dioceses. Today (2012) the ruling bishops of the five dioceses are:
- Eastern America - Bp. Mitrophan (Kodic)
- New Gracanica and Midwestern America - Bp. Longin (Krčo)
- Western America - Bp. Dr. Maxim (Vasilijevic)
- Canadian - Bp. Georgije (Djokic)
- Buenos Aires - Metr. Amphilohije - Temporary Administrator
A seminary, the St. Sava Serbian Orthodox School of Theology is located at the St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Monastery in Libertyville, Illinois.
The Serbian Orthodox Church in North and South America is a member of the Standing Conference of the Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA).

I was a very happy man.
My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married.
There was only one little thing bothering me—it was her beautiful younger sister.
My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight miniskirts, and generally was bra-less.
She would regularly bend down when she was near me, and I always got more than a nice view.
It had to be deliberate. Because she never did it when she was near anyone else.
One day her "little" sister called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations.
She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn't overcome.
She told me that she wanted me just once before I got married and committed my life to her sister.
Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word.
She said, "I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come up and get me."
I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to the front door.
I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Lo and behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all clapping!
With tears in his eyes, my father-in-law hugged me and said, "We are very happy that you have passed our little test. We couldn't ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family."
And the moral of this story is: Always keep your condoms in your car.

Home and Away: How to Keep Toddlers Active
Toddlers don't like to sit still. They wriggle from your grasp and want to be free. That's tiring for parents, but very good for kids. Toddlers naturally enjoy doing what is healthiest for them — being as active as possible.
Experts say that kids between 12 to 36 months old should get at least 30 minutes of structured physical activity (adult-led) and at least 60 minutes of unstructured physical activity (free play) every day. And toddlers shouldn't be inactive for more than 1 hour at a time, except when they're sleeping.
At Home
You're in the driver's seat when you're with your child. To limit sedentary time, don't let your toddler spend too much time in strollers, car seats, and high chairs. All these can keep kids from being active enough.
Limiting TV time is another good way to keep kids physically active. TV watching, including videos and DVDs, is not recommended at all for kids under age 2. Those guidelines relax for older toddlers, but kids don't need to watch any TV. Even educational programs aren't as enriching as real-life activities, such as figuring out how a toy works, playing games, or singing songs together.
If you choose to allow some TV time for your older toddler, try to follow this guideline: No more than 1 to 2 hours of quality children's programming per day. Another option is age-appropriate videos, especially those that invite kids to play along.
Here are some tips for keeping toddlers active:
Adult-Led Activity | Free Play | |
Younger Toddlers (12-24 months) |
Older Toddlers (24-36 months) |
Away From Home
If your toddler spends time with a caregiver or at a childcare center, it's important to investigate how much activity the kids get:
- Do they go outside most days?
- Is there a schedule of activities they adhere to?
- Do they watch videos or TV, and if so, how much and how often?
Another option is a playgroup, which is a great way to get kids together for some active time. A playgroup is also a welcome change of pace for stay-at-home parents, who benefit from the social time with other moms and dads. The parents could plan some time for structured group activities, such as playing a game, and let the kids do their own thing for some of the time. Meeting at a playground or large, indoor space is ideal.
If you've ever seen a group of toddlers playing, you may have noticed that they don't seem to be interacting as much as older kids do. Still, be assured they enjoy this time together. Eventually, they will start playing in more cooperative ways.
Provide a Safe Environment
Wherever a toddler is being active, the play area must be safe. At home, use gates and other safety equipment to make at least one room in the house safe enough for a toddler to explore. Away from home, look for childcare facilities and playgrounds that have newer, age-appropriate equipment that's not too big or challenging for your toddler. Also, ask about whether kids are separated by age — a practice that helps prevent injuries.
But no matter how "safe" the environment, there's no substitute for supervision. Many toddlers seem to subscribe to the "no fear" philosophy and may climb to the top of the monkey bars without reservation.
Close supervision is important because even though toddlers show improving skills, they lack sufficient balance, coordination, and judgment. In other words, keep a close eye and be there to catch them!
