Prices are predicted to pick up for homes sold by many experts in the real estate industry, and they're likely right. Prices will likely rise, even though home sales are likely to slightly slow in 2004, but 2004 will still see a high volume of both new home sales and pre-existing home sales. High sales volume will also likely exist for condos throughout our local beaches and the islands, and for area homes.
Fannie Mae's chief economist, David Berson, supports this prediction with one of his own. Berson estimates that 6.73 million homes will sell next year, slightly down from this year's record-breaking 7.04 million, which broke last year's record of 6.54 million.
Mortgage rates will likely rise above the 6-percent ceiling, possibly breaking 7-percent, but this should not concern area homeowners or condo owners who may be considering selling, since most buyers in this area aren't as affected by interest rates at that level. The rate change will more likely effect first time home buyers than it will a luxury home buyer, or a buyer of an island or beach home, or condo.
The new home loan limits that took effect January 1 of this year will likely help sellers who are selling their homes in areas such as Tierra Verde, or in similarly priced areas. The new loan limits increased from 2003's $322,700 to a new limit of $333,700 in 2004, providing home buyers with more purchasing power to put toward their future home, which will likely fuel more home sales.
The Bayway Islands and the Gulf Beaches will remain a seller's market throughout the year, as prices will continue to increase and buyers will continue to buy real estate in large numbers throughout this area. With the sweet, serene sunsets to lose ourselves in as we gaze into them, the sensual feeling of sand between our toes as we create beautiful beach memories to be fond of, the capture of another fish reeled in from another bridge-expedition, the view of the tide rising from a window, or being able to sail out to sea from the comfort of your own backyard beach slip, it certainly seems priceless, except when you have to sell, or when you want to sell in order to move into a larger home, and these priceless items will continue to create high demand for area properties, allowing sellers to get their price, as long as they don't price their property too high to where they're pricing themselves right out of the market.Powered by Sidelines

Almost 40 years to the day since the Manson murders is, perhaps, not the best time for this bunch of long-hairs to release their debut album.
Throw in a messianic group leader, the fact that they drive around LA in a painted bus and write lyrics that include "Run to the desert/ You will be/ All that you need to be" and it's clear that history, minus the murderous madness (hopefully), is repeating itself as farce in sunny California.
Having said that, there is also something unmistakably now about Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. If you threw Kings of Leon, Scissor Sisters and Arcade Fire into a blender, this – with an obligatory shot of wheatgrass – is exactly what you would get in your musical glass.
It's a somtimes heady brew. Sharpe – real name Alex Ebert – and his crew (which stretches from nine to 13) sing, clap and make all manner of joyous noises that make live shows raucous and rejuvenating events. Such "vibes" are harder to get across on record.
Up from Below starts promisingly with a few short foot stomps signalling the arrival of "40 Day Dream", as Sharpe bursts in with "Ooh, I've been sleeping for 40 days 'n'/ I know I'm sleeping cos this dream's too amazing". There follows a redemptive Arcade Fire-style group-singalong chorus with a "magical mystery" motif, as the spirit of the 1960s come charging triumphantly into the here and now.
It sets a standard the group can't possibly maintain and there follow songs so forgettable that it's hard to believe it takes this many people to play them. Salvation arrives again at the album's core, with two songs so fabulous they diminish still further those mediocre moments. "Home" is a psychedelic-country jam that positively whoops with delight, while "Desert Song" is as ominous and creepy as the Manson Family it evokes.
Bottom line is, if Up from Below had come out in 1969, it may well have started a musical revolution. But times have changed and the acid-fried young folk of that year played their own small part in that cultural shift. For now, it's worth popping a few of these songs on to your iPod and musing on what might have been had that hippie dream not turned so dramatically sour.

Zephiel married Guinevere.After Desmond announced that Guinevere's husband would become the next king of Bern, there was quite a bit of outrage from those who were loyal to Zephiel, and who had expected Zephiel to become the next king. To placate the people of Bern while still holding true to the letter of Desmond's proclamation, Zephiel and Guinevere got married. This was the last straw for Desmond, who then made his last attempt on Zephiel's life...
The reason Bramimond resurrected Ninian to help deal with the three dragons is because ice is super effective against dragon.
Roy was named after Roland.Or possibly, "Roy" is a nickname and "Roland" is his full name, kind of like "Lyn" was a nickname for "Lyndis."
Karel killed Geitz and Vaida.If you go through Dart and Karel's supports, you will find that Dart tells Karel of a female Wyvern general who is the strongest of the four Bern generals. Vaida was supposedly expected to be killed on her return to Bern because of her betrayal (Heath may have been killed too, as he is able to join her). However, Karel says he will "keep her in mind" and is known to hunt out strong people with reputation (which is why he talks to Dart, who knows the rumors). Vaida and Heath survive the journey and maybe talk to the prince, but Karel was right behind them and killed Vaida. Heath dies trying to protect her. That would explain why they don't appear in 6. Geitz, on the other hand, has a brother named Geese who appears in 6, but Geitz himself is absent. Geitz feared Karel and that fear was what give him the ability to sense when Karel was near. Karel even compliments Geitz's skill, but denies trying to launch a sneak attack on him. Geitz's natural fighter's instinct and his ability to sense Karel's presence finally won Karel's respect and, with that, Geitz was destined to be challenged by Karel. Since Karel appears in 6 and Geitz doesn't, it is possible Geitz was killed in their fight.
- On the other hand, we know Geitz isn't exactly fond of his family, so that could easily explain why he doesn't appear and why Geese doesn't mention him (ages aren't clear, but judging from their appearances and the time skip, Geese was probably fairly young when Geitz left, and they probably don't have much interaction anyway). The part about Vaida makes a ton of sense, though, especially considering how her solo ending doesn't really make it clear what happened to her...
The dead friend Renault wanted to bring back is Kishuna.Renault's battle conversation with Nergal in Hector's story suggests that Nergal was still experimenting with morphs when Renault came to him, and Kishuna was Nergal's first morph. Renault also refers to what Nergal gave him as "soulless" and "an empty vessel". Unlike most of Nergal's morphs, Kishuna isn't even capable of speech, which could lend to him giving off this impression. It would be interesting to see if anything unusual would happen if Renault were to be hacked to be able to attack Kishuna in Chapter 32x...
- That actually seems to be shot down in the game; Kishuna is specifically referred to as the "only morph he made with emotions", implying that Kishuna is not his first morph. Also, while Renault's friend is likely the first morph, part of the reason Renault was turned away from it was because it was an emotionless shell of his old friend.
- What if Kishuna was a Super Prototype, and all the morphs made after were emotionless?
- Besides, although we see that Kishuna has emotions, he never, ever speaks. Him not speaking was why Nergal cast him aside, believing him to be a failed test. That not speaking would have Renault think that Kishuna was emotionless as well, also rejecting him. So for me at least this feels like Kishuna had emotions, but could not express them for some reason.
- I did it via a purge tome and a bunch of energy rings (for range). He didn't say anything. Though it could just be the devs not thinking of this possibility. Given that this is FE, I'd still say Kishuna is the friend Renault tried to revive.
The world behind the Dragon's Gate in FE7 is in fact Archaneia, the continent of FE1/3/11.The Dragon's Gate is on the same spot as the Ice Dragon Temple in FE3. Nils and Ninian also mention how men and dragons live there together, which applies to Archaneia as well.
- Nils and Ninian refer to a Dragon Shrine, not explicitly the Ice Dragon Temple. However, the Ruins of Time area in Awakening is certainly draconic in nature, due to the presence of Naga's Tears, and presumably there is some unexplored suspicious property about it due to the appearance of the time-lost and partially amnesiac Morgan. It seems more likely that the other side of the Dragon's Gate is what eventually becomes known as the Ruins of Time instead of the Ice Dragon Temple, which when explored in FE3 shows no indication that it was ever the other end of a dimensional portal.
- Seems to be Jossed by Fire Emblem: Awakening. Nah seems to be the only known Half-blooded Manakete (aside from a ♀ Morgan, provided she's either Nah's sister, or Tiki's or Nah's daughter) in the land of Archanea/Ylisse. Tiki's comments explicitly suggest that there has never been a half-blooded Manakete in Archanean history prior to Awakening.
- How does Archanea not having any half-dragons before Nah lead to Archanea not being at least one of the places the dragons went to after the Scouring? Tiki never mentions Elibe, and what she said only rules out half-dragons in Archanea.
- One would think anyone on Archanea would have at least heard of Ninian or Nils prior to Awakening if the world behind the Dragon Gate in Blazing Sword was indeed the world was the one where Archanea, Valentia, and Jugdral are all located. There's a possibility that she could be wrong about the part of being no half-dragon on Archanea before Nah, but considering the circumstances...
- As shown here, Tiki is speaking using her own knowledge. She spent a large portion of her life being asleep, it's not guaranteed she would have been informed of any mixed manaketes or read about them in any available sources, assuming in the case of Ninian and Nils that any dragons Tiki was in contact with knew about their parentage. None of the characters of confirmed mixed human and dragon heritage in the Elibe games were said to have been born in the land the dragons went to after the Scouring, and only Nils always goes to the land beyond the gate in Blazing Sword's ending. Going with the Scouring occuring before the Judgral and Archanea games, Tiki could have never found out about the half-dragons up until she had her talk with Nah.
- How does Archanea not having any half-dragons before Nah lead to Archanea not being at least one of the places the dragons went to after the Scouring? Tiki never mentions Elibe, and what she said only rules out half-dragons in Archanea.
Wendy's parents are Oswin and SerraThere are no female A-knights in 7, and they're rare in the setting in general, so if it's in Wendy's blood at all, it must be from her father's side. Wendy has crappy DEF and STR for an A-knight (even taking starting at level 1 into account). Of course, you could argue that's just due to being a girl, but it wouldn't make sense for her mom to be someone like, say, Vaida. It's clear she's uncomfortable with the role and that would make sense if her parents were radically different. Finally, she has pink hair, which is unusual even for Fire Emblem. Now, what canon pairing involves a male A-knight and a non-combat-type female with pink hair? Bingo.
Lowen is the cook/meal delivery man in FE6.We know Lowen as the eager-to-please Pheraen cavalier in FE7, in which he spent an entire set of supports lecturing Eliwood on the importance of proper nutrition, as well as revealed that he had been cooking for the army surreptitiously. In FE6, Lugh mentions in his supports with Chad and Ray that the man who delivered meals to them in the field has given him extra baked tarts. Klein also mentions, in his A support with Percival, the cook's concern that Percival doesn't like his meals because he eats them without expression. Neither of these men is given a name, but they both seem to share the same concern over making sure everyone in the army gets enough to eat and, what's more, that their food actually meets their preferences and tastes good (which, from what I've gathered, is unheard of in any military). It's likely that at least one of these guys is actually Lowen returning to (half of) his previous role, if the two unnamed caterers aren't, in fact, the same person.
The Juna Fruit isn't actually exclusive to Magvel.In Sword of Seals, the character Gonzales can be found at level 12 on one route, and level 5 on the other, but his stats are the same regardless. This is consistent with the effects of Juna Fruit. Note that to drop 7 levels, Gonzales would need to have eaten at least two Juna Fruits, as there is a 5-level maximum per fruit. How he managed to get two of what is obviously a very rare delicacy in Elibe is anyone's guess, though the most likely scenario involves the corrupt nobles who push him around, seeing him only as a weapon and therefore thinking only to make him stronger.
Limstella was modeled after Nergal's wife.Before the chapter in which you fight her, Nergal comments on how Limstella was the most powerful of his morphs. However, Limstella is a very plain woman. Other than the black hair and yellow eyes that all morphs come with, she doesn't exactly stand out. Not exactly imposing enough for someone to choose for their champion. This could be a case of Boring, but Practical, but considering that Nergal lost his sanity to the dark powers trying to bring his wife back from the dead, it wouldn't be a far stretch to believe that when making his most powerful morph, that some lingering presence of her in his mind influenced his design.
- She would look a lot like Ninian if her hair and eye color were to be changed appropriately.
- In the infamous Chapter 19xx, the boss talks of how those who dedicate themselves to dark magic often forget why they're doing it. This is totally consistent with the above. Limstella is his subconscious trying to fulfill his original goal.
Harken is the mystery villagerIn one village in FE7, a man who doesn't reveal himself claims that he dresses in the garb of the Black Fang, but is an ally and a loyal citizen of Lycia. All these apply to Harken, who suicidally infiltrated the Black Fang to kill as many members as he can as revenge for Elbert.
- This could be confirmed — it's not shown on screen, but ROM-probing shows that the game does load Harken's portrait data for that sequence in addition to that of whichever unit is visiting the village.
Sword of Seals's Gale is the son of Blazing Sword's HeathThis might seem like a long shot, but hear me out. In Heath's nonpaired ending, he relocates to Ilia and continues fighting as a mercenary. In Sword of Seals, the reason Gale is originally denied the position of Dragon General is because he isn't a native of Bern (despite being one of Bern's "trademark" Wyvern Lords). In other words, my theory is that Gale was born in Ilia as Heath's son, and became a wyvern rider like his father, and eventually traveled to Bern and became a Knight.
The Tactician from FE7 is Harry Paget Flashman.Think about it: he does very little actual fighting or real work, letting Lyn handle the bandits in Lyn's Tale. Despite that, he manages to come off as quite the hero, and all the records place him as indispensable to Nergal's defeat, and who knows? Maybe he really was, in the typical Flashman way. And if all the tactician-fics are any indication, he does a lot of unwarranted bragging, especially when it comes to nailing the chicks. All we need now is for some clever bastard to blackmail him into joining Eliwood's little warband, and it all fits together.
The Tactician from FE7 is one of the lost PrimarchsHe was a ridiculously gifted tactician as shown by how he led a rag-tag army multiple times against superior numbers to victory with zero/minimal loss. The Emperor heard news of an army that continued to break the odds led by a mysterious tactician and he understood that he had found one of the primarchs. After Eliwood's coronation, the Tactician had to immediately leave for a reason that was never specified. The reason was that he was approached by the Emperor shortly after the defeat of Nergal and he agreed to take command of a Space Marine legion. It was mentioned that he disappeared after the events of the game and all attempts to locate him were futile. This is because the Tactician was not in Elibe (or the planet it was on for that matter), he was in another part of the galaxy fighting in the Great Crusade.
Gale from FE6 was supposed to be recruitableLet's list some facts:
- He was shown to be at the very least a Noble Demon and he was not a boss, which is usually a hint that said unit is recruitable (Douglas is a notable exception, though he joined the next chapter if he was still alive by the end of the chapter).
- In the game, we could get prepromote units of almost every class. Dragon Lords are one of the exceptions, the reason is that Gale was supposed to be the Dragon Lord prepromote unit.
- He and his units don't attack you sometimes. Of course, this could be chalked up to programming mistakes, but it might also be because he was meant to be a recruitable unit.
- Some recruitable characters appear as an enemy with his/her own unit, and when he/she was recruited, the unit would become green (Percival, Klein, Tate). Gale appeared as a reinforcement with accompanying units, presumably the game designers might have intended Gale to be similar.
Eliwood's stats are usually bad because he's carrying the Tactician into battle.He really IS a good warrior, but his stats are lame compared to Hector's because he has a permanent rescue penalty.
- What would that say for Lyn and Hector's stats, though? They both carry the tactician in their stories, too... Maybe they're even better than they look? Which would mean that Lyn's speed stat is actually quite terrifying...
Erk is Niime's grandson and Hugh's cousin.That purple hair. He's a little too old to be Canas's kid, but Canas notes having several brothers, at least one of whom was probably older. But all those brothers ended up soulless husks due to Dark/Elder magic, and given Niime's special child raising practices, it's not too strange to imagine she might have shipped him off to study under Pent.
- For bonus crossover points, Lute from Sacred Stones is actually related to this family too.
Lalum is Oujay's sister.In his support conversation with Wendy, Oujay mentions that he had a sister but, because of how poor his village was, female children were usually left in far-off lands to be adopted by people who can give them a better life. Lalum is adopted. This is Fire Emblem, where there are no coincidences; any character mentioned offhand will somehow become important to the plot. (Note that every last character mentioned in a support conversation in Blazing Blade that does not appear in that game does appear in Sealed Sword — Geitz's brother, Canas's mother and son, Hawkeye's daughter, etc.) Note, also, that this is a franchise with a history of adding a bunch of unexpected familial relations between its characters (most notable in Radiant Dawn, but also the whole Nino/Canas thing in Blazing Blade). It would be a unique occurrence if something like this was mentioned and it didn't refer to someone else in the game. Also, in the Lalum/Oujay conversation, Oujay seems pretty uncomfortable with Lalum's flirtatious advances and is specifically trying not to stare. There isn't much that can explain why he would be uncomfortable, but it's possible that something in his subconscious is telling him that starting a relationship with this girl would be a bad idea.
- I propose that Lilina's his sister. I mean, Oujay mentions it with his support with her (too?), and they look alike. On the other hand, Lilina's mother is mysteriously missing. None of Hector's endings even hint at a "canon" one, and if anything, Lyn's his love interest, despite it being a doomed romance. (She wanted to go back to Sacae, Hector had to run Ostia.) Maybe Hector just adopted.
- Lyn never mentions anything about wanting to go back to Sacae if she's paired up with either Eliwood or Hector. And even disregarding that fact, how does Lyn wanting to go back to Sacae entail to Hector/Lyn being a doomed romance? If anything, her desires to go back to Sacae could be very much like Ninian's desire to travel through the Dragon Gate once more, meaning going back to Sacae might not be as much deeply desired as we think.
A grown-up Nils will appear in future Awakening DLCThe last time we saw him, he was headed through the Dragon's Gate to a world where humans and dragons co-existed, which many have speculated to be Archanea. Having Nils around as a regular character in Awakening (as opposed to an Einherjar) would be a cool way to follow up on that and give us another view of Elibe's backstory the same way Tiki did for Archanea. Also, two words: Ice Manakete.
- Jossed now that we've gotten Fates, so no more Awakening DLC... Unless we end up getting a direct sequel to Awakening in which he appears?
Nino is descended from LewynGoes off the "Dragon's Gate leads to Archaneia" theory. Sonia says that Nino's family has been hailed as one of the strongest magic families ever. One of Lewyn's descendants stumbled into Elibe and decided to settle down there, thus beginning that same family. It would certainly explain those fantastic growths and green hair.
Jahn was supposed to be a true dragon...But the writers realized that they hadn't made him powerful enough for it to be believable. The lack of emotion shown by Jahn and the Elder of Arcadia were likewise supposed to be how dragons acted, with Fae and the elder having learned emotion from their time with humans. But then they realized that dragons would have been living with humans before the war, so learning emotions could not have been a new phenomenon. Having realized that it made more sense for Jahn to be a delusional wardragon, they decided to take these implications and expand on them in the prequel, with other true dragons appearing and being a much more legitimate threat.
Hector's Story is the canon version.I'm going to start this off with a gameplay story: On one playthrough of Hector's Story, I had Bartre properly trained, but Karla never appeared; conversely, I also once had her appear when I'd accidentally gotten Bartre killed off. I eventually came to the conclusion that her appearance is contingent on saving the village in Chapter 25 in which she appears and gives the party an Elysian Whip. Hence, it can be assumed that if that village isn't saved, she somehow dies in that bandit attack. Since the party never even goes to that area in Eliwood's Story, they're not around to save that village (which explains why Karla never appears in Eliwood's Story), and as such, Karla dies, which causes continuity problems because it means that she and Bartre never hook up and have Fir. Hence, Eliwood's Story cannot be canon.
- Most people would use chapter 19xx as "proof" over one optional character. That actually changes the story a lot.
- 19xx doesn't really change the story at all. It gives the characters more insight into the villain's motives, and the player even more insight than that, but as far as changing the story, I wouldn't even put it over 32x. On top of that, it's a hard-to-obtain optional chapter (although most of the optional chapters have fairly strong cases for canonicity); Chapter 25 is a mandatory chapter.
Legault is in love with LloydLegault is most likely Bi due him flirting with Heath, Matthew, Isadora, and Lloyd in the final chapter. In Hector Mode Chapter 23, the chapter where you fight Lloyd, he comments how the player has caught him looking stupid, he is most likely staring at Lloyd. He even states that he's "a bit wrapped up in some silly emotions", so he's fully aware that your party is going against the man he loves but refuses to let it out. Although the dialogue is unchanged if you're fighting Linus instead. To prove it even further, His conversation against Linus, in Cog of Destiny, ends with a "I knew this would happen. Nothing's going to change. I knew it, and yet here I am. I couldn't leave well enough alone... I'm a fool.". For Lloyd? "I'll see you again, Lloyd. With Linus...and Uhai... Even if it won't be in this world." His conversation with Lloyd in the final battle has him calling him handsome even as a zombie.
If the world were to be remade,FE7 (Blazing Sword) will come out first followed by FE6 (Binding Sword). FE6 is then able to download the ending from FE7 and have minor alterations to its storyline accordingly. New chapter may be unlocked, too.
If a game is ever set during the Scouring, the Player Character's avatar will be BramimondIn this game, Bramimond keeps his/her face covered with a hood, has no specific gender, and is described as a "mirror" that only reflects the personality of the one speaking to it. In other words, s/he doesn't have a defined personality. S/he was also said to be the strategist of the eight heroes. Now, who does that remind you of?
- Alternately, the writers will tease us with this possibility and then have an unrelated character become Bramimond, while the avatar fades into obscurity (Either due to not having a Legendary Weapon to attach their legend to, or because they left the Legends' forces and faced a different climax.)
Ursula survived the events of 7...But she ran away and turned herself into an octopus-woman who sells contracts to mermaids. And Jaffar ran away from bounty hunters by going to Agrabah. He asked Ursula to get him a talking parrot while he was at it.
Desmond somehow learned of the events of Sword of Seals.Why else would he be so ridiculously insistent on having absolutely nothing to do with Zephiel, to the point of killing a fox that Zephiel gave as a gift to Guinevere? He saw that Zephiel would one day become the villain of FE 6, and wants to stop the events of that game before they begin. He's basically the only character ever who realises he's in a prequel, and has the potential to stop the original story from ever happening. Of course, the whole jealousy thing is a bonus, but if he knows the plot, then he knows that Guinevere's basically going to get Bern's throne eventually...
- Maybe he's just trying to speed things along and get Guinivere on the throne even sooner? Preventing the war of FE6 is just an added bonus on top of that.

It's always a little surprising to see Oprah Winfrey look nervous. She is wealthy, she is accomplished and, within the confines of her many TV projects, she is firmly in control. But you could tell that she was waiting for an anvil to fall on her head during her appearance on David Letterman's show last night -- or at least for some prank, fretting as she did that Letterman might have an unflattering childhood picture of her in her hated glasses. She even expressed surprise at how serious Dave was, quizzing her about the troubles in Africa and Oprah's work there.
The interview as such won't go down as great television, since Dave's many gifts do not include conducting artful interviews. He's a comedian, and a very good one, and his show is most inspired when it tries to be silly, irreverent, smart-alecky. That was certainly what Oprah expected, and also -- her claims of a non-feud aside -- a big reason why she hadn't been on Dave's show for 16 1/2 years. Instead, she ended up giving an interview she could have done anywhere, with a host as fawning as she might have found in a dozen other places.
But this meeting of the talk titans was less about what actually happened than the sheer possibility of it. Letterman's run-up to Oprah's visit, his constant and delighted jokes in the days leading up to it, gave him fresh material and energy. Last night, Dave's walking Oprah to the neighboring theater, where ''The Color Purple'' was opening, was more fun than the interview before it. The walk had that what-will-happen-next quality, and Dave seemed to be having a grand old time at it.
More fun still is thinking about what will happen the next time Oprah visits Dave. That's when the fun should really start. She can relax, knowing that even if Dave gets silly, he means no harm. Last night's show was, after all, an hour-long apology, a promise to Oprah that Dave will treat her with respect and admiration -- even if he does occasionally make fun. And Dave, having made penance, will be able to go back to irreverence and whimsy. Fewer people may watch than did last night, but the hilarity will probably be greater.
UPDATE: Whatever you thought of the show itself, the curiosity level was obviously enormous. CBS estimates about 13.45 million viewers tuned in, making it the most-watched Letterman since 1994 and fourth most-watched ever. (The three telecasts ahead of it are his a 1994 telecast, his 1993 premiere on CBS and a second 1994 telecast. The two shows in '94 benefited from Olympics women's figure skating as a lead-in, during the Nancy Kerrigan/Tonya Harding era.)
Letterman pulled a double-digit rating here in Northeast Ohio, crushing Leno and building on his news lead-in. Letterman in late night had a bigger audience around here than anything in prime time except ''ER'' and ''CSI.''
In other words, more than ''Joey,'' ''Will & Grace,'' "The Apprentice,'' ABC's Pope John Paul II movie, ''PrimeTime,'' ''The O.C.,'' ''Reunion,'' ''Survivor,'' ''Without a Trace.'' Yes, some of those were reruns. Yes, Jay Leno also outdrew the likes of ''The O.C.,'' ABC's pope movie and ''Joey.'' Still, this is an enormous coup for Letterman.

Defending Australian Open champion Rafael Nadal endured a nervy night on Rod Laver Arena before eventually fending off the persistent challenge of Philipp Kohlschreiber in four sets.
The Spanish second seed was below his best against the 27th-ranked German whose heavy hitting, especially off the backhand side, caused Nadal problems all night.
In the end Nadal simply took his opportunities better to win 6-4 6-2 2-6 7-5 in three hours and 39 minutes.
The left-hander will play big-serving Ivo Karlovic in the next round after the Croatian defeated countryman and 24th seed Ivan Ljubicic.
Kohlschreiber defeated two left-handers, Horacio Zeballos and Wayne Odesnik, en route to the third round and while he lost the opening two sets against Nadal he fully tested his more-fancied opponent.
Nadal grabbed an early break of serve in the opening set which proved decisive, although he had to fend off seven break points to stay ahead and clinch it in an hour and three minutes.
Nadal broke immediately in the second set, coming back from 40-love down, to get his nose in front.
The set followed a similar pattern to the first with Kohlschreiber probing away at the Nadal serve but proving unable to convert his break-point opportunities.
The German's doggedness was finally rewarded in the third set.
Nadal struggled with his first serve and Kohlschreiber pounced with some impressive winners as the defending champion grew increasingly tetchy.
The seven-time grand slam winner was twice broken and continually looked to his courtside entourage for inspiration as he lost the set.
Kohlschreiber sensed an upset was possible and matched Nadal from the baseline as the match developed into a dogfight.
Nadal looked like he had taken the edge with a couple of wonderful forehand passing shots to break, which finally brought him to life with a double fist-pump celebration.
But again Kohlschreiber battled back to immediately break back and square the set at 4-4.
An untimely poor service game at 5-5 cost Kohlschreiber as he three times sent wild forehands wide and was again broken.
Nadal did not squander the chance this time as he served out the match, with a cross-court winner sealing his passage to the last 16.

If the San Diego Chargers like what they see in their workout with linebacker Brian Banks, they should sign him before he goes to the Seahawks' minicamp next week. Why take the risk?
The Seahawks invited Banks to their minicamp after giving him a tryout Thursday. Banks was recently exonerated from a sexual assault charge on which he was convicted 10 years ago. He was 16 and prized USC recruit when he went to jail. He is now 26. Seattle coach Pete Carroll is the man who recruited him at USC.
Banks is from Southern California and expressed an interest to try out for the Chargers. San Diego began to study Banks and now is looking at him Friday, U-T San Diego reported. The Chiefs are also interested in giving him a tryout.
If the Chargers really like him, thought, they should make a move now.
In other AFC West news:
The Raiders signed fourth-round pick, linebacker Miles Burris. The San Diego State product is expected to play on special teams right way and vie for playing time at linebacker in the near future. Oakland has two remaining draft picks to sign. There are five remaining draft picks in the AFC West. The Chargers have signed their entire class.

Hundreds of foreign visitors were today forced to queue for up to six hours to collect Olympic tickets after arriving in London for the Games.
Purchasers from the United States, Australia, Sweden and Canada had to stand outside in temperatures approaching 27C at a college in Paddington because of an administrative blunder by ticket agency CoSport.
Staff at the company, which has the exclusive rights to sell "premium packages" to seven countries, were struggling to issue tickets that had been bought online.
By 1pm today a queue of more than 200 people was snaking out of the doors of the City of Westminster College's Paddington campus, where the tickets were due to be picked up.
Some visitors are thought to have left without collecting their tickets because they could not be found, while those who did wait had to cover their heads with coats and umbrellas because of the heat.
John Schrader, 54, from Adelaide, was nearing the college entrance after waiting for four hours to pick up basketball, swimming and athletics tickets.
He said: "You have several hundred people queuing for four, five, six hours, this is a significant public safety issue. You could have people collapsing or fainting. People are getting dehydrated and are in the sun.
"I feel very sorry for the staff and volunteers because they are the victims of incompetence up the food chain."
Derek Reimer, 64, from Canada, spoke to the Standard after waiting two-and-a-half hours with his family.
The retired archivist bought tickets to see Canada play Japan in the women's football in Coventry on Wednesday as part of a trip to Britain to visit relatives.
He had not planned to come to London but CoSport told him he could not pick up his tickets, as planned, in Shrewsbury, where he is staying.
He said: "The irony is that there are thousands of tickets for sale for this game. I assume we could just walk up and buy a ticket. CoSport has handled things abominably. The only thing they are good at is taking your money."
David Prais, 48, from Uxbridge, spent more than three hours to collect several tickets, including some for Taekwondo for friends whose daughter is competing for the US team.
He said: "It doesn't cast the Olympics organisers is a very good light. Clearly there are people in the queue where one of their first experiences of this country is to pick up their tickets, and what a disaster that is."
No one from CoSport was available to comment. On its website, the company describes itself as "the leading provider of consumer hospitality packages and individual event tickets to the Olympic Games."

Olympus Stylus Tough TG-3
Olympus Stylus TG-3 digital camera :
Spectacular macros and pristine wide angles, in severe low-light conditions, and on long trips with no chance to free up internal storage … when regular compact cameras and smartphones reach their limits, Olympus' Stylus Tough TG-3 comes into its own. The new flagship of Olympus' ultra-rugged Tough range is ideal for anyone with a passion for outdoor sports and adventure and high-quality photographs. Its super-bright, large-aperture lens makes first-class shots possible even in poor light. The 1:2.0-4.9 wide, high-speed 25-100mm 4x optical zoom unit feeds the same TruePic VII image processor found in Olympus' high-end OM-D E-M1 interchangeable lens camera.
Olympus Stylus Tough TG-3
Legendary Japanese mountaineer Yuichiro Miura took the TG-3's predecessor to the summit of Mount Everest in 2013, and one glance at the new camera's riveted casing cements the Tough reputation for excellent build quality. It is shockproof to a height of 2.1 metres, crushproof to a weight of 100kg, freezeproof down to -10°C, dustproof and waterproof to a depth of 15m without a special underwater housing.
Macro mode on the Olympus Stylus TG-3
The Tough TG-3's reassuring body protects some world-class imaging technology. For example, the first-ever macro mode to feature four settings in one. Advanced Super Macro Mode comprises Microscope Mode, Microscope control Mode, Focus Stacking Mode and Focus Bracketing Mode. Microscope Mode lets you magnify a subject more than 40x from as close as 1cm. So if it measures just 1mm in reality it can impressively appear as large as 44.4mm on the LCD. Focus Stacking Mode counteracts unintentional bokeh caused by a shallow depth of field. It automatically shoots multiple shots of a macro subject with different parts in focus, then merges them to a crisply focused image of publishable quality. The upshot is maximum creativity without a computer - which is just what you need when you're miles from home.
Compatibility with converters and macro accessories
One of the key disadvantages of smartphone cameras and strap-on camcorders is the limitation of storage for high-resolution images. Not to mention the lack of creative accessories that tends to result in generic shots with low-quality. One of the great advantages of Olympus' Tough TG-3 is the pristine image quality it delivers, even in low light, plus compatibility with converters and macro accessories that let you shoot with a range of spectacular styles and effects. For example, the new ring-shaped LG-1 Macro Light Guide that screws directly onto the wide-aperture lens to illuminate macro subjects evenly from all sides. Or a Converter Lens Adapter and variety of converter lenses (fisheye, telephoto) that can be attached in severe conditions - including underwater - without the risk of damaging the camera. For shooting at greater depths, the PT-056 underwater casing protects your camera down to 45 metres.
Olympus TG-3 equipped with WiFi
The inevitable result of all that creative versatility? The potential to capture a varied and original collection of high-quality, 16-Megapixel photographs and Full HD movies that you can upload to social media via WiFi, with the confidence of avoiding the 'hall of shame' reserved for the many substandard snapshots taken with average gear. WiFi also lets you remotely control the Tough TG-3 from a compatible smartphone, making it simple to get close-up shots of easily startled subjects like insects and other animals. You can release the shutter directly on your phone's touchscreen and check the composition of selfies in inaccessible places where there's no-one else around to help.
Olympus TG-3 Accessories
• Olympus LG-1 Macro Light Guide for illuminating macro subjects evenly and counteracting camera shadow for truly spectacular shots
• Olympus PT-056 underwater housing for capturing movies and stills at depths up to 45 metres
• Olympus CSCH-122 silicon jacket for protection from scratches
• Olympus FCON-T01 fisheye converter for wide-angle shots in severe (underwater) conditions
• Olympus TCON-T01 tele converter to capture far away motifs by extending the max. focus length from 100mm to 170mm without changing the aperture
Olympus Stylus Tough TG-3 price & availability
The Olympus Tough TG-3 is available in black or red from June 2014 for € 399,00.

showers are excruciating
freezing water stuns you
takes you out of the moment running through your head
assualts you violently
reaching its clwas around your body until you are completely covered in its rage
the warm water starts.
you get a burning sensation from the temperature changing so fast
like you've been dropped in a kettle about to whistle, about to overflow
the water hits you like a million electric shocks
and yet reminds you, even though you are not in control
the warmth will alwayscome eventually.

"As the public learns more about the details and consequences of President Obama's healthcare medicine, they will clearly demand a second opinion. We're ready to provide one — or many."
In the past three years, Republicans have focused their healthcare efforts on opposing the Affordable Care Act, holding 40 votes against the law in the House alone.
Several of these votes promised to "repeal and replace" ObamaCare, though neither the House nor Senate GOP Conferences have push a comprehensive healthcare reform proposal of their own.
The House GOP has also struggled to rally behind leadership's healthcare priorities. Earlier this year, a Republican bill to shore up ObamaCare's insurance plan for sick patients was pulled from the floor after failing to garner enough GOP votes.
In his piece Tuesday, Upton listed several individual healthcare bills from Republican lawmakers, including a measure from Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) that seeks universal coverage through tax incentives and automatic enrollment in employer-sponsored health insurance.
He also noted that the conservative Republican Study Committee is preparing to unveil a comprehensive ObamaCare "replace" bill that will include protections for people with pre-existing conditions.

The USB Implementers Forum: Surely, you know the name. Since 1995, this organization has worked tirelessly "for the advancement and adoption of universal-serial-bus technology." But after 10 years, what do they have to show for it? Boring memory devices and unimaginative external drives. Isn't there anyone with guts enough to test the limits of this dynamic and, dare we say, universal port?
Say hello to Thanko, a Tokyo-based consumer-electronics company that has created enough outlandish USB contraptions to make Rube Goldberg jealous. If you've wondered, "Where's a good USB-powered manicure set when I need one?" well, your search is over. Also in the Thanko line: a heating pad for your coffee mug, a piezo negative ionizer, a speaker shaped like a flowerpot — all powered off your computer's garden-variety USB port.
Before you run out and drop 50 bucks on a USB-powered humidifier, let us warn you: These aren't the sorts of products that come with instructions and extended warranties. The massagers (one each for eyes and scalp) were practically shedding parts on arrival. And they're not exactly paradigms of design: The chintzy plastic casings looked as if they'd been jerry-rigged to accept USB plugs. (Thanko definitely is not a member of the USB Implementers Forum.)
Still, it's hard to argue with the soothing pulse of an electric gizmo. At $15 and $24 for the eye and scalp massager, respectively, we say yes. The manicure set (we, um, had one of the women in our office test it out) was a different story: This is more a dollhouse trinket than a tool for the cuticle-conscious CEO on the go. While the electric file worked wonders, the buffer and polisher were ornamental at best. Save your $60 for the nail salon.
Hungry for more? Thanko's full range of USB devices is available through a variety of importers online. Remember what the folks at the forum say: "Once you've tried USB, we think you'll grow quite attracted to it!"

TravelPod Member ReviewsKuta Beach Club Hotel
Good: Hotel was clean, pool and setting is very picturesque. Good rooms, friendly staff. Breakfast is standard as per most Kuta hotels. Price is good.
Bad: Attracts a much older croud, no night atmosphere probably due to over-priced drinks at the bar and terrible entertainment/ear-piercing karaoke.
