Reviews for Albacore Tuna Salad
"Simple to make. I didn't care for this particular fruit and tuna combination, but that may just be my taste. Perhaps chicken would be better, as another reader mentioned."
"This was a terrific salad. I used chicken insteadof tuna and spread it on rye bread. I got a lotof compliments from my family."
"This is delicious on whole-grain bread. Next time I will use chicken; a better compliment to the other ingredients."
"very refreshing, i did too use cranberries instead of raising, and used pineapple tidbits instead of crushed. I added chopped english cucumbers. Overall 3+ stars = )"
"This is delicioius. I do add cranberries instead of raisins & follow recipe w/all of the other ingredients."
Wine Pairings
Light-Bodied White Wine
Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

Sore Throat
Sore throat is defined as discomfort or a feeling of irritation in the neck that gets worse most times when swallowing. Pain is the main symptom seen in pharyngitis (inflammation of the pharynx or throat). Often, the terms of pharyngitis and sore throat are used interchangeably. Sore throat is often caused by a viral infection, flu or cold. A sore throat triggered by a virus can self-heal with home care, however, if it is triggered by a bacterial infection, the sore throat may require antibiotic treatment. There may be other reasons for neck pain that may require complex care regimens.
Sore Throat Symptoms
Symptoms of a sore throat varies, depending on the cause. These may include:
- Discomfort or feeling of irritation or scratch in the throat
- Pain that worsens during swallowing or speech
- Difficulty when swallowing
- Sensation of dry throat
- Inflamed or painful glands
- Swelling and redness of the tonsils
- White spots or pus present in on the throat and tonsils
- Thick speech
- Pain when eating and eating refusal (especially seen in infants and young children).
Common infections that could be the basis for pain in the neck may have other associated signs and symptoms:
- Fever
- Chills
- Cough
- Runny nose
- Sneezing
- Muscle pain
- Nausea and vomiting
Sore Throat Causes
- Adenoiditis
- Infectious mononucleosis
- Larynx cancer
- Cancer of the mouth
- Sjogren's syndrome
- Strep throat
Other causes of sore throat:
- Bacterial infection
- Chemical irritation (tear gas, smoke).
- Chemotherapy drugs
- Diphtheria
- Dry Air
- Diverse viral infections
Sore Throat Treatment
What treatments can be applied to eliminate the neck pain? Antibiotics for viral infections, proved ineffective are not recommended. Symptoms in this case will begin to disappear when the body triggers its self-defense system, usually 7-10 days will pass until recovery. To relieve sore throat pain and problems that it causes the following are recommended:
- Antipiretic drugs (that fight fever) – acetaminophen – Tylenol, ibuprofen, novocalmin. Children under 12 can not be given aspirin (high chances to develop Reyes syndrome)
- Gargle with warm water and salt (1 / 4 teaspoon of salt dissolved in one cup water).
- Adults and older children can use candy to relieve the burning sensation in the throat (eg Halls).
- High consumption of warm or cold liquids (avoid hot foods and liquids, as they can be able to irritate the throat worse), easily digestible foods and as more fluids.
If the sore throat is caused by a bacterial infection your doctor will prescribe antibiotics – penicillin treatment for 10 days (later research showed that treatment for 5-7 days does not give positive results, there is a risk of complications and unwanted re-infection).
In case of allergy to penicillin erythromycin is prescribed. Although improvement occurs in the first days of antibiotic treatment it is very important to completely finish the treatment in order to prevent rheumatic fever. Approximately 15% of patients relapse and a second course of antibiotics are needed. Strep throat (streptococcal pharyngitis) is contagious and patient should be isolated. Children can return to school if fever was not present in the last 24 hours and had at least 2 days of antibiotic treatment.
If the sore throat is caused by different types of bacteria, your doctor will prescribe antibiotics to destroy the bacterial flora. Any antibiotic has to be followed until the end to prevent reinfection and complications. In the case of infectious mononucleosis your doctor will recommend avoiding long and heavy physical activity. Symptoms can last in some cases more than 4 weeks.

It's not Mayberry, but it's close. CBS News correspondent Steve Hartman reports Andy Griffith's hometown of Mount Airy, N.C., has a Floyd's barbershop, an Opie's candy store and even a Mayberry Kountry Kitchen.
The restaurant's owner, Tom Hellebrand, used to work as a crime scene investigator in Florida. A couple of years ago, he quit his job and moved his entire family to Mount Airy — because he loves the classic television show that much.
"I've seen each episode hundreds of times," says Hellebrand. Is he exaggerating? "No, that's a minimum," he insists. "A thousand times would not be an exaggeration."
Hellebrand says his obsession is all about honoring the show. That's why after actor Don Knotts died earlier this year, he got to thinking: Mount Airy has a bronze statue of Andy and Opie. So why not Knotts' character, Barney?
To Hellebrand, "Barney was the 'Andy Griffith Show.' He's the one who made you laugh. He's the one who made you think. I just love Barney Fife."
There's certainly no doubting his sincerity, and Hartman reports that's why the rest of Hellebrand's story pained him. The rights to the Fife character are owned by CBS, and after initially giving him written permission to raise funds and hire a sculptor, the network apparently reconsidered and issued a cease and desist order.
The decision left Barney half-finished, and Hellebrand half-broke. To the tune of, he says, $10,000.
CBS is passing the buck on this one, saying it's actually Don Knotts' wife and Andy Griffith himself who insisted the project stop. In turn, spokespeople for those parties say it's CBS who has the rights and only the network can say no. This news had Hellebrand thoroughly confused — but genuinely hopeful.
"This whole thing is like an 'Andy Griffith' episode," Hellebrand remarked. "It starts out good. It gets really bad in the middle of the show, but at the end, it gets happy and there's a happy ending."
To that end, Hartman called the CBS public relations office and told them what a shame it would be if this story ended with his saying how CBS is so unsympathetic, the network won't even reimburse Hellebrand the money he lost.
Needless to say, CBS has now decided to reimburse Hellebrand.

With LoopPay, Samsung could take early lead in mobile payments
One of the hurdles to implementation for mobile payment technology is the cost of adopting new physical systems compatible with methods like Apple Pay. Samsung stands to take what observers call an "early lead" on the marketplace due to its acquisition of LoopPay.
"LoopPay developed a technology called Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) which will be integrated into new Samsung phones," reports John Heggesteun of Business Insider. "The technology will allow mobile users to pass their phones over a typical credit card reader to make a payment. In addition, Samsung Pay users will also be able to pay by presenting a barcode to be scanned at checkout."
This means that a higher number of merchants should be able to accept Samsung Pay payments sooner than its competitors, as the … more
Is your business ready for cloud POS?
Whether you've just signed the lease on your first store or you are considering expanding to new locations, its worth taking the time to consider your current and future point-of-sale (POS) system needs now. In your market research, you have likely already stumbled upon how retailers and restaurants are moving away from bulky cash registers and replacing them with sleek tablet mobile payment systems.
Thanks to advances in mobile devices and cloud technology, cash registers have become increasingly rare, and for good reason. A smartphone or tablet can provide the same functionality, in a more streamlined manner that improves the customer experience. Customers gain the option to have receipts emailed to them instead of printed, can clearly view … more
New York State Department of Labor to issue new paycard guidelines
"For several years at least, many employers with a large non-exempt workforce – particularly in the retail and hospitality industries – have moved towards pay cards as a means to reduce payroll administration costs," explains JD Supra, business advisor. "Most states either regulate pay card systems lightly (with fairly minimal disclosure and free withdrawal requirements) or not at all."
Some of the NYSDOL-proposed regulations include:
A description, in plain language, of all employee … more
Samsung Pay delay reminds merchants: Easy does it
As the original rollout date approached, some observers were surprised to hear that Samsung delayed the launch of Samsung Pay until later this year. The platform will be available to merchants in September and leaders at the company said the delay will allow Samsung to fine-tune some details about the service.
"If anything, we think that by the time we launch (in September), that we will have significant announcements associated with which banks, which networks are participating with Samsung Pay and even which merchants and which programs attached to merchants will all be a part of Samsung Pay," Will Graylin, global Co-GM of Samsung Pay, told PYMNTS. "And that's just a slight hint into what will be coming. Samsung Pay is in a great position."
Aligning partners is one of the … more
How complex are your payment interface needs?
One of the benefits of technological innovation is that in stores and restaurants, a point-of-sale system often performs other functions. From workforce management to ordering and timekeeping, many different services can be integrated into a single, unified system. Moreover, many companies have expanded to multiple locations, so consistent platforms across those outlets is a priority.
While this has streamlined digital transactions across multiple channels of a business model, it presents potential hurdles to upgrading old card reading devices. As the October EMV migration deadline nears, studies have shown that many businesses will take their time to get compatible with the new chip-and-pin system. The bigger and more complex an enterprise and the more heavily dependent it … more
Web-based processing models help churches and other nonprofits
Nonprofits face a special set of hurdles when it comes to generating donations. The traditional development model, which relies heavily on paper mailings and requests for pledges over the phone, doesn't integrate itself into the lives of patrons the way an online interface can. At Vantage, we provide service to enterprises seeking donations on their website. This produces a steady revenue stream for organizations that depend on the generosity of supporters and provides those patrons with an easy and convenient platform to give.
At Vantage, our solutions for similar organizations enhance an individual's ability to give, reduce the administrative time dedicated to accounting and are fully customizable to the needs of the organization. Your organization can pay a small processing … more
Slowly transitioning to mobile payments?
In the natural evolution of payment processing, mobile payments look to some like a final frontier. However, adoption will be slower than the media hype over mobile payment platforms over the next several years.
Satisfaction with payment cards will wane over time. Most businesses have had long and fruitful experiences with traditional payment platforms. Since estimates of mobile payment usership are low, many entrepreneurs are taking a wait and see approach to adopting new mobile payments by monitoring their own customer base and inquiries which they understand are unique to them and their market.
Yet, as these same businesses look to adopt EMV standards in face-to-face payment environments, adding the ability to accept mobile will certainly be top of mind.
For card-not-present … more
How do your unbanked employees access funds?
Your company might have had spotty luck with its direct-deposit program. Some employees enrolled right away, while others forgot to complete all the necessary forms. Some may prefer to cash a physical paycheck while others fall into the "unbanked" category, effectively operating outside the financial system. According to the FDIC National Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked Households, nearly one-third of American households fall under that last category, making it challenging for employers and employees to exchange funds.
Paycards set up a clear solution to the problem: Mandating direct deposit. This allows employees with checking accounts to link their information to your payroll system, and those who are "unbanked" to enroll in a paycard program that provides them an easy way … more
Finding the right payment model for your clientele
One of the best ways to identify payment processing models that are appropriate for your business is to learn from your customers. For leaders at supermarket chain Whole Foods, this has meant listening to their sought-after millennial demographic for direction about adopting Apple Pay and other digital payment options.
"We are, through the use of technology, building out and extending ourselves where our customers are whether it's through Instacart for home delivery, which we're doing more than any other grocery store in America now," Co-CEO Walter Robb said during the company's earnings call. "And we're really just getting started whether it's through affinity, which builds a personal connection to customers who will allow to customize their relationship with us [or] … more
Finding the right payment processing provider for your enterprise
This week, Nerd Wallet conducted a cost-benefit analysis of expanding enterprises to include payment card processing systems. While few industries rely on cash-only models of doing business in 2015, some holdouts may not be sold on the benefit of accepting card payments.
Some of the benefits included broader reach to new customer bases, ease and convenience, reduced trips to banks to make cash deposits and streamlined accounting. Emily Starbuck Crone also noted that in competitive industries, giving customers the option to pay with their cards can help businesses gain an advantage. She cited a vendor at a farmer's market as an example: In the past, these have been largely cash-based enterprises, but some customers might not have the physical currency to make a purchase. … more

Algorithm 711: BTN: software for parallel unconstrained optimization
Mathematical optimization
In mathematics, computer science, or management science, mathematical optimization (alternatively, optimization or mathematical programming) refers to the selection of a best element from some set of available alternatives. In the simplest case, an optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function.

Parallel computing
Parallel computing is a form of computation in which many calculations are carried out simultaneously, operating on the principle that large problems can often be divided into smaller ones, which are then solved concurrently ("in parallel"). There are several different forms of parallel computing: bit-level, instruction level, data, and task parallelism.

Sequent Computer Systems
Sequent Computer Systems, or Sequent, was a computer company that designed and manufactured multiprocessing computer systems. They were among the pioneers in high-performance symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) open systems, innovating in both hardware and software. Through a partnership with Oracle Corporation, Sequent became a dominant high-end UNIX platform in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Variable (computer science)
In computer programming, a variable is a storage location and an associated symbolic name which contains some known or unknown quantity or information, a value. The variable name is the usual way to reference the stored value; this separation of name and content allows the name to be used independently of the exact information it represents.

Vector processor
A vector processor, or array processor, is a central processing unit (CPU) that implements an instruction set containing instructions that operate on one-dimensional arrays of data called vectors. This is in contrast to a scalar processor, whose instructions operate on single data items.

Lanczos algorithm
The Lanczos algorithm is an iterative algorithm invented by Cornelius Lanczos that is an adaptation of power methods to find eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a square matrix or the singular value decomposition of a rectangular matrix. It is particularly useful for finding decompositions of very large sparse matrices. In latent semantic indexing, for instance, matrices relating millions of documents to hundreds of thousands of terms must be reduced to singular-value form.

Irish-bred Stratham's mild upset in Santa Anita's La Puente Stakes on Saturday contributed to the track's first three-day carryover in more than two years. A total of $1,126,445 is carrying into the pool for Easter Sunday's 1:30 p.m. program.With jockey David Cohen at the controls, Strathamsqueezed through an opening along the rail to capture the $108,600 La Puente for 3-year-olds by 1 ½ lengths over British-bred Genre.The bay colt by Mozart covered one mile in 1:36 over a turf course labeled "good." The victory was Stratham's second stakes win in three U.S. starts for woner Jerry Jamgotchian.Riding Stratham for the first time, Cohen settled his mount in fourth behind pacesetter Chadlington. When the leader drifted out in midstretch, Stratham was steered through the gap and won going away.Genre, with Martin Pedroza aboard, rallied for the place, one-half length ahead of Lightning Hit, who closed from last in the field of seven under Alex Solis.Racing as an entry with Global Genius for Jamgotchian, Stratham paid $8.40, $3.80 and $2.60. Genre returned $3.80 and $3. The show price on Lightning Hit was $3.20.Trainer Tim Yakteen, a former assistant to Bob Baffert as well as the late Charlie Whittingham, gained his his first stakes win at a Santa Anita meet after going out on his own 18 months ago.The winning purse of $65,160 nearly doubled Stratham's earnings, to $131,993 from an overall record of 3-4-1 in 10 races. He began his career in England where he raced seven times, breaking his maiden in his final start there.(Chart, Equibase)

Yellow, greasy, and foul smelling stool
There are a variety of reasons why stool will be yellow, greasy, and foul smelling. It can be due to the intestine's inability to digest and absorb fat because of diseases of the intestinal lining (such as in celiac disease and cystic fibrosis) because the pancreas is unable to manufacture adequate digestive enzymes (such as with chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer that blocks the pancreatic duct, or there is not enough bile being delivered to the intestine (such as in cancer of the liver or bile ducts that are blocked). The yellowness, greasiness, and foul smell is due to the undigested fat. Continue Reading

Vt. farmer charged in drug ring
BURLINGTON A Vermont farmer has been charged in a large marijuana trafficking ring involving drugs that federal officials believe were smuggled across the U.S.-Canadian border.
Kirt Westcom of East Fairfield pleaded not guilty late last week to conspiring to distribute more than 100 kilograms of marijuana.
Westcom, who owns a 140-acre farm, is the fourth man to be charged in the case.
Jeffrey A. Donna, who owns T.J.s Country Store in Montgomery; Roy L. McAllister II, vice president of McAllister Fuels Inc. of Richford; and Jesse J. Soule, a Montgomery dairy farmer, pleaded not guilty on May 29 to marijuana trafficking conspiracy charges.
McAllister and Donna would often drop off marijuana at Westcoms property between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., a confidential informant told authorities, according to a police affidavit.
Westcom allegedly often hid the pot in hay bales in his barn, the affidavit said.
When the three other suspects were arraigned last month, federal drug agents searched Westcoms home and found evidence of marijuana and a marijuana grow room, court records show.
Law enforcement inquired about his source of supply, and Westcom suggested that he wanted to talk to a lawyer, the affidavit said.
Westcom was arrested on Thursday, the Burlington Free Press reported.
Federal agents alleged the marijuana was smuggled across several spots on the Vermont-Quebec border.MORE IN This Just InCASTLETON Rutland Post 31 pitcher Andy Kenosh called it mojo.

Hitachi LifeStudio Desk PlusPocket-lint
Backing up your data is boring. We know. But it's a necessary part of our digital lives. So is there anyway of making it any more exciting? Hitachi hopes so and, as such, has released the LifeStudio Desk Plus - a portable hard disk drive with extras.
Coming in 1TB or 2TB flavours (we reviewed a 1TB one), the Desk Plus hides a Hitachi Deskstar 3.5-inch hard drive (7200rpm, with a 32MB cache) beneath its shiny black exterior. It hides it so well in fact that you'd be fooled into thinking that this wasn't an external HDD at all, but rather a desktop speaker, or an elaborate device charger - especially when the additional 4GB USB flash drive (that we'll come back to later) isn't on board. The L-shaped design is certainly unique in its field and the build quality is reassuringly solid.
What sets the LifeStudio HDD apart from other external drives that we've seen is that Hitachi has created a whole multimedia experience around the device with a Cooliris powered gallery on board to view all of your content. So it's not just a case of dragging and dropping your folders, or using a basic backup program - Hitachi really has gone all out to make backing up a more web-like experience. But does it work?
Well, sort of - the backup manager is an easy to use piece of software that gives you all the usual options such as automatic backups, scheduled backups, what folders to backup, how many versions of backups to store and so on, and you'll also get 3GB of free cloud storage for your most important files. Where the software falls down though is the Cooliris 3D wall interface. It works quite nicely most of the time, giving you a nicely arranged (default by date) view of your media - but once you start syncing it slows to a painful crawl and slows down your whole system (tested using Windows 7) at the same time. The hard drive also makes a fairly substantial clunking noise when it is working hard.
The MyKey USB drive is an excellent addition though. It sits magnetically on the front of the main unit, and when the LifeStudio is attached via USB (it also requires a power source as well, by the way) your computer will recognise two separate entities, with the MyKey treated as its own drive. Coupled with the easy-to-use sync software for this aspect, this really is a key feature of the whole product - especially if you're the type of person that likes to keep certain files super safe.
The software also contains what Hitachi is calling MyLife - which is the 3D wall's (necessary with all new tech and apps, it seems) integration with your social networks. MyLife makes it easy to share your pics and movies with the likes of Facebook, Flickr and Picasa, should you be the type of person who likes sharing your memories.
It's important to realise, however, that the LifeStudio isn't a media server. There's no Wi-Fi on board, so although the extra UI features may set it apart from other HDDs in the market it is still, at heart, a desk-based external drive. Albeit one with a few tricks up its sleeve.
Does the Hitachi LifeStudio Desk Plus succeed in its aim of making digital file backup a bit more interesting? We're inclined to say yes, with a fairly meaty caveat in place though. That being that although it makes syncing a more friendly process, it doesn't really offer anything in terms of media organisation that your OS probably doesn't offer already. Sure, dragging and dropping or auto-backup programs are dull processes, but they do what you need them to do with minimal fuss.
That's not to say that you can't just use the old fashioned methods with the LifeStudio – it is a regular external hard drive at heart as well, don't forget, and as a hard-drive it performs amicably (shame about the lack of USB 3.0 connectivity though) and the MyKey USB flash drive option makes it all the more appealing.
The Hitachi LifeStudio Desk Plus is perfect for someone looking for a funky looking external HDD to sit on their desk and do all the things a HDD should do. Just don't expect the whole package to make much of an impact on you.

Konoba: "Croatian specialities - including fresh fish" Konoba Tip by morgenhund
Konoba, Vienna: 1 reviews and 0 photos
Konoba is a Croatian restaurant, with a strong emphasis on fish and seafood, although for diners who don't enjoy these choices there are always meat dishes and vegetarian dishes. There is also a range of white and red wines and numerous beers on tap - although strangely none of the beers are Croatian! I went as part of a large group and they put together a long table for us and were very attentive and the service was good and the food great. Their choice of fish was top notch and the prices were very competitive - mains being aroung EUR 9-12 with starters from EUR 2.50. They also have a good range of aperitifs and digestives and the atmosphere is pleasant and informal.
Favorite Dish: For the non-meat eater their veal, beef and lamb dishes are well worth tasting - often served with gnocchi. They have a wide range of fish - and seafood - friends reported that the mussels were excellent. I went for an Ajvar for starter - very simple and traditional, but very tasty. The veal with plums and gnocchi was very tasty and the figs with a port sauce and vanilla ice cream made a tasty dessert.

Emotional immaturity
in Friends
Everyone wants happy and fulfilling relationships. One of the things that prevent us from having them is emotinal immaturity. Emotionally immature people can be extremely challenging to deal with, because their ability to interpret and react to the variety of life's challenges is often impaired. If you are in a relationship with someone that is emotionally immature you probably face great challenges in dealing with their moods and behaviors. They tend to try to control their world and those around them. We'll talk about the signs of emotional immaturity. What it's rooted in? And perhaps we can help each other change and grow.

Sold out crowd for Saturday night T20 showdown
PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC-A much-anticipated top-of-the-table clash between defending champions Trinidad and Tobago and arch-rivals Guyana will be played to a packed Queen's Park Oval when the Caribbean T20 tournament climaxes its Port-of-Spain leg on Saturday night.
The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) is reporting that tickets have been sold out for the contest between the two unbeaten teams being billed as a 'mini final'.
More than 20,000 fans are expected to invade the oval to witness inaugural champions Guyana battle the home side, who are back-to-back title holders.
"It is simply amazing to see that tickets for a match on Saturday night have been all snapped up so far in advance of the match being played," said Cindy McLean, the Caribbean T20 Event Manager
"This means that the fans have totally enjoyed the experience in the stands and what they have seen on the field of play all week".
Following Thursday night's round of matches, T&T led the table with nine points from three matches while Guyana was second with eight points from two matches.
The Guyanese are level with Barbados who are on eight points after three matches.
"Who plays the smartest cricket to assess the play and adjust to the different conditions on the given day, they will come out on top," said Trinidad and Tobago Manager, Omar Khan, in anticipation of the clash.
"We know we have the quality of players who could really lift our games to the highest…"
Saturday night's main fixture will also feature several members of the West Indies team which won the ICC World T20 championship in Sri Lanka last year
However that will be preceded by the day's first encounter between traditional rivals Leeward Islands and Windward Islands.
"We anticipate a massive climax to the first phase here in Trinidad on Saturday night before the tournament moves to St Lucia for the second phase next week," said McLean.
"You can feel the incredible excitement, enthusiasm and energy of the people as they demonstrate a passion for the game."
The Caribbean T20 was scheduled to enter Day six at Queen's Park Oval Friday with Jamaica playing Leeward Islands and Barbados facing Combined Campuses and Colleges.

No matter how great your lender is, you need certain assurances to fund a loan fast. I have had two transactions in the last 90 days where the money line was frozen on the lender ( I was the listing agent on both transactions). The lender had to repackage the loan and get funding with a new money source. Best scenario from submitting a complete package to funding was 5 business days on both. If your appraisal is 90 days old that could cause even more delay.
8 days is a big roll of the dice with a deposit on the line.
As far as your deposit. Check you contract language and any addenda you may have signed. Check all escrow instructions and amendments. You will still need the Seller to cancel escrow, before the money can be released.
If you want to purchase the home and the Seller really wants to sell the home, the Sellers Listing Agent can go to the bank and ask for an extension on the approval. I have seen them granted.
If the Sellers "side" of the transaction was just trying to "borrow time" from their lender by stretching the time they stayed in the house because they were trying to short sale it but really they were just trying to stretch their time of livng there and not paying mortage/rent somewhere, then you might not be able to make it work out. The way that you can probably tell if your Seller is serious about selling is if they delivered their notarized signed grant deed to escrow in anticipation of following through. You can also sometimes get a sense by IF they are still occupying the property, do they look like they are planning to move in the timeframe that was alloted?
If selling doesnt work because of a lack of interest in the Sellers OR the Sellers lender to make it work, you should be entitled to your deposit back. You hopefully have good documentation and you have your contingencies as your protection. Refunding a deposit still requires BOTH the buyer and seller to sign the escrow paperwork releasing the deposit and cancelling the transaction. I hope that your Buyers Agent limited the amount of deposit you put into escrow prior to having the written approval. There was a form that allowed your deposit to be withheld until your short pay approval (written) was given to you. Hopefully, that was how your deposit was attended to. If not, know for next time that you can work your deposit this way. If you have trouble getting the Seller to release your deposit, you probably have signed the arbitration and mediation clauses in your contract and will be subject to this delay. In order to avoid it, you might offer a small amount to the Seller to sign now and release now. Of course, you may want to seek legal assistance if it comes to this. Hopefully, one of the other options will be available to you. Also, if you are using a Realtor, you may be online seeking answers because you are not sure that you are getting the assistance that you need. Realtors have brokers, you could try to get assistance with the broker intervening on your behalf if you think your Realtor is not as knowledgeable as you had hoped. Good Luck. Short pays can be a great deal but they are sometimes a bit risky. take care,

text: l.b. dub corp - unknown origin (album preview) by Experimedia published on 2013-11-07T18:31:09Z *Excerpts from the album. Now available at Experimedia.net.* Double LP version, featuring 8 of the 10 tracks from the CD. Ostgut Ton presents Unknown Origin, the debut album from Luke Slater's L.B. Dub Corp moniker. The ten tracks recorded at Spacestation Ø form a hymnal intent on transporting you back to the roots. Digging deep into the history of dance music, Unknown Origin dares to ask the big questions and offers no easy answers. Instead, deep spiritual dubs are side-by-side with slices of piano house, and handsome slabs of techno contrast with the words of the silver-tongued poet Benjamin Zephaniah. In L.B. Dub Corp's capable hands this examination of what has gone before is in absolutely no way nostalgic. These are tracks informed by the past and rooted firmly in the present. The euphoric early days of house make themselves apparent on "Turner's House" and the jubilant "Nearly Africa." They are also the key to the building piano line on "Ever and Forever." But house's ability to soothe a mournful soul is far from forgotten and "No Trouble in Paradise" should be kept close when everything's far from blissful. Through Unknown Origin L.B. Dub Corp makes it clear that his dub influences don't stop at its rhythms, but extend right into dub poetry. Benjamin Zephaniah, arguably the UK's premier wordsmith, makes two appearances on the record. He lends twisted turns of phrase to the swung, sensuous opener "Take a Ride," and returns at the album's mid-point to fill "I Have a Dream's" synthesized arcs with wit and word play. Zephaniah's words and L.B. Dub Corp's treatments catch you unawares, and this is why they're such a fantastic pairing. "I Have a Dream" undercuts the closed-down thinking that plagues politics and the us-and-them thoughts that can creep into rallying speeches. Together they create a surreal hymn for our pluralistic times. Equally there's just as much wisdom to be found in the smooth samples on "Generation to Generation" as there is humor. Amid the speculative, introspective moments on Unknown Origin there is no shortage of tracks to detonate dancefloors. "Anytime Will Be OK" is a grooved masterclass and "L.B's Dub" operates at jittery high-octane. The record draws to an almighty close with "Roller," featuring another formidable figure, Function. This pitch-black track provides the menacing last twist in the tale, a firm techno cut to end a record which traces dub to its roots and celebrates the heritage of house.

The Croatia international, who has been training separately, has been heavily linked with a move to Madrid, but the Spanish giant is still yet to meet Spurs' asking priceTottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas has revealed that Luka Modric is set to return to first team training as the club are still yet to receive an acceptable offer for the midfielder.
Real Madrid has been heavily linked with the Croatia international this summer but Spurs have not been prepared to compromise on their asking price.
Villas-Boas believes that Modric must accept that there is little the club can do if an agreement is not reached before the end of the transfer window.
"He has been training separately," the Portuguese told Sky Sports. "Now it is important for Luka to feel mentally ready to come back to first team training.
"These boys are at a different level in terms of their preparation, concentration and commitment. I think the player has to understand that the club cannot do anything about other clubs' offers. We have a value and an interest that we have to defend, and we are waiting to reintegrate the player if the offer is not matched."
Modric's future at White Hart Lane is in doubt for the second consecutive summer, with Villas-Boas himself pursuing the playmaker this time last year as manager of Chelsea.
The 34-year-old hoped a resolution would be reached as soon as possible, ideally with Modric returning to the first team.
"We will try to solve it as soon as possible," he said. "It is the second time we have been through this situation. It is obviously difficult for him, but the chairman is defending the club's interests and the player has to understand that, and the fact that the offer does not meet the chairman's demands means we can't do anything."
"The player is a good professional and hopefully he will return to the team."
When asked if Modric could be ready to play at the start of the season, Villas-Boas replied: "Obviously he will have to raise his fitness level, and the sooner that we can have him reintegrated mentally and then physically, we will then see how things go."

My range of artisan glass lighting and chandeliers shows the detail achievable with flameworking but allows individual components to be added together to make a larger, showstopping article.
