Traveling is a luxury that most of us want more of. What if traveling the world becomes your job? Well, that's what happened to Gil Antolin, founder of Luxury World Traveler. MillionaireMatch talked to him about how he went from losing everything to gaining the whole world.
In 2008, the U.S. began to feel the consequences of a crashing financial market. Layoffs were high, and large companies were closing. Antolin didn't have the luxury of escaping the mortgage crash. His real estate company ended as he lost three of his homes. As if that wasn't enough, this time caused him to lose cars and his fiancé. "I couldn't control what was happening to me personally and financially. It was one of the most helpless feelings I ever had as an adult," Antolin said.
After a push from a friend, to get his mind off of all the things crashing around him, Antolin began to plan a two-week mission trip to Uganda. "Being in Africa felt like I was on another planet," he said. They raised $200k to help orphans get uniforms and school equipment. As a thank you, the children put on a performance for Antolin and the other volunteers. "I just remember the joy that was exuding from these children while singing and performing in the midst of having nothing. So much more joy than I'd seen in people from the U.S." he said. It was an emotional moment for Antolin as he watched them being overjoyed at having Coca-cola for the first time. It was this experience that made two things clear for him. "I realized in an instant how blessed I was, even though I was losing all these material things. I still had more than these people. I had electricity, water, and I had opportunity. I could bounce back. It helped me recover from what was going on. It was an extremely impactful moment in my life, and it forever changed my path in what I wanted to do." Antolin now feels that paying it forward to those who can't pay you back and being able to travel and immerse himself in different cultures are two things that must be part of his life.
Antolin soon started an Instagram page sharing some of his favorite travel spots and places he desired to go. It got to the point he would spend up to six hours a day on Instagram. Speaking of travel, we had to know his top three places to go. We weren't surprised when he said Maldives, Spain and Bali.
Now that Antolin has a successful business, he sees the difference between being a workaholic and doing something you are passionate about. "I was overweight, smoking and stressed out a lot. I was not me. The whole focus was on money. It was still work. I considered it work. When I shifted my mind and started my Instagram account, I hadn't perceived Luxury World Travel as work," he said. Fortunately, Antolin became a travel influencer before influencers were a thing. With just 200k followers, Antolin began to generate revenue in addition to free trips and hotel stays. "One of the things people miss, unless you are a celebrity, your personal page and business page should be separate." Also, having strategic collaborations can help you increase your following faster.
Currently, Antolin is working on his latest business Book Smarter, a travel membership that gives you access to affordable accommodations and way to earn free travel. The business is in beta.
Travel has been a complete paradigm shift for Antolin, and he's ready to take on 2018. He'll be taking on Belize, Dominican Republic, Bora Bora, Laos and Croatia to name a few. "I've never been to a place I didn't enjoy. I think each location has something to offer. That's why I love traveling. It's like a new story with each new place," he shared. To keep track of his adventures, follow him on Instagram @luxuryworldtraveler. Don't worry if you turn green from all the photos, check out booksmartertravel.com for your next travels.
Tis the season to sip champagne and share laughs with lifelong friends. Some may decide to stay home for New Year's Eve, but the choice to celebrate in a lush venue is still top of the list. Well, if you are in Miami you probably have heard of LIV, Story and Komodo Lounge. Dave Grutman is the entrepreneur responsible for these lively spaces that boasts some of the best DJs and music artists. MillionaireMatch got the scoop on how he went from bartender to nightlife mogul.
"Relationships mean everything," Grutman said. Relationships have been a big factor to Grutman's success. It was his friend Jeff Soffer who wanted him to manage the newly renovated LIV at Fontainebleau Miami Beach. In the early days, Grutman worked as a bartender at Biz Bistro where he would serve up drinks to businessmen after a day's round of golf. The owner of that restaurant was Soffer's dad, Donald Soffer. "Whether you are a bartender, busser or doctor you always have to treat everything like it's a profession," he said. He later became a manager there. "I always try to treat people like I want to be treated," Grutman said.
Grutman learned early on what it would take to be successful beyond building strong relationships. "I run my business with proper ethics," recalling his time at one of his first nightlife venues. He didn't always do this. Cameo, his first club, failed because he focused on trying to outdo The Opium Group which eventually bought it from him.
He now spends his time making sure his brand sticks out from the rest. "I constantly have to see what's going on in the underground, because that becomes pop culture," he said. Scouting for new musical talent and building relationships with agents are all part of the game. LIV generates a revenue of $45 million a year, and that's not by chance. "It's strategic. It's luck. It's being in the right place at the right time and then being able to capitalize on that. There's plenty of times in your life that will come up that you are in the right place at the right time, but if you don't make the right decision it goes away," he said.
Grutman adds to that strategy, by making sure he hires quality people. "We try to build the right team around us so that we can capitalize on that," shared Grutman. His team is so good, competitors have tried to lure them away from the company. He practices building his team up, and not always criticizing them.
With the hospitality business being so competitive, we wanted to know what keeps him on top. "You have to be cutting edge. You can't wait to see what everyone else is doing. Be innovative, constantly," he advised. "You want to create a lifestyle so that people think about you when they make those decisions in the hospitality industry," he said. "I'm in the fun business. At the end of the day, it better be fucking fun," laughed Grutman. He urges that there will be long hours to go along with being the best, and there isn't much life work balance.
With LIV being opened for 10 years, there is no doubt that Grutman continues to keep things fresh and cutting edge. For more information and possibly a new favorite hot spot, check out miami-mg.com.
"Luxury has many different levels to it," said John Idol, CEO of Michael Kors. Everyone has access to luxury these days, but it wasn't always that way. Brands have tapped into an overlooked group which have led companies like Michael Kors to billion dollar brands. MillionaireMatch got the scoop on how Idol grew the company with just one item.
A key luxury item for both men and women is a quality watch. That's why Michael Kors decided to introduce their line of watches that looked like quality with an affordable price tag. Idol first offered the MK watch at $125, but the quality wasn't there. The result? No sales. After he went back to the drawing board, improved the quality, and slapped a new price tag of almost $300 the result was completely different. "Customers understand quality," Idol said. Once they understood that, MK became one of the biggest watch retailers.
Idol, who has been the CEO for MK since 2003, offered key tips to building a luxury brand. "You have to be prepared today to embrace technology. Utilize it to help build your brand, and to expand your customer base," he said. With social media and more people shopping online than going into a brick and mortar, it's important to capture and keep your audience with the use of technology. "The behavioral shopping patterns of consumers are changing rapidly," he said. "The consumer today, the wealthier consumer, are adept at shopping online. It's a convenience of seeing a broader assortment of what you could have in house. You have the convenience of having things delivered in 24 or 48 hours. You need to be able to serve that customer in a completely different way," he added.
Even with technology pushing out brand messages so quickly, it's still important to not get off target. "You have to build a global brand, and you have to have a consistent image," Idol said regarding MK's consistent branding. Over the years audiences have watched a brand promote the jetsetter who loves to be stylish. They incorporate an exciting feeling for the newcomer who may be experiencing luxury for the first time. "Many people have never had the kind of money they have come into. The customer wants to show that they have luxury," he explained. "Many customers in the emerging markets want to show their wealth off. That is one of the drivers of luxury," Idol said.
For the entrepreneur creating the next luxury brand, there a few steps you can take. "If you are going to be successful in our business, or any business, you've got to work hard. You've got to dive for the ball," Idol said about getting your foot in the door. If you are in college be sure to study abroad. Different climates and cultures speak to the fashion industry differently. Idol also said that brains aren't the only thing you will need. "The smartest people who work for us are not the people who graduated at the top of their class. They are the ones who are the most interested. They are the ones who are most curious and ask the question 'why?'. They are always wanting to know why, and aren't afraid to work hard," he said.

There are a few key things that everyone should own and feel great wearing. A watch is one of them, but not just any watch. A market that may seem overly-saturated, Audemars Piguet is a brand that only a select few wear. This luxury watch is sure to stand out on anyone's wrist. CEO François-Henry Bennahmias leads this luxury brand which started in 1875, and remains to be a rival in the industry. MillionaireMatch got the scoop on how Audemars Piguet continues to be the choice for wealthy men.
"We are a very high end brand. We like to show our craft. Every link is unique. You have to create a new mold every time. It's very complicated," Bennahmias said about the process of creating their watches. Because of the complexity, it can't be copied. Another reason why customers opt for the brand and its price tag which can range from $3500 to over a million dollars. "There will always be an appreciation for things that are done well, and that lasts. You feel it is completely different compared to something that is duplicated by millions," he said.
How do they compete with other major brands? "Sometimes we think it's about re-inventing the wheel. It's not about re-inventing the wheel. It's a matter of respecting the basic rules of business which are having an amazing product and amazing partners, and boutiques to sell the product," he said. He doesn't feel threatened by the wave of new smartwatches. Bennahmias also believes in forward movement and never standing still when it comes to your business. "Intense work on quality and innovation," he explained is what keeps them in the game.
"The purpose is not to be sold to everybody," Bennahmias said. The company's model of connecting with customers is a very organic one. Half of their sales happen right over the phone. "When they talk to us the first connection is going to be over the phone. Internet sales, we don't do it," he said. Once the Audemars Piguet team has made a connection with a potential customer, they start a relationship with them. "We will continue to use the internet to communicate with clients, but we need to directly connect with the client. At this level of prices and experience, I can't explain or justify over the internet," he said. "Luxury is true emotions. It's not something you need," as to why a more personal connection is needed to take care of clients one at a time.
Audemars Piguet has taken a few turns and pivots to become the well known brand it is today. They started out as wholesalers and selling to distributors, they've now become their own distributor. With locations all over the world from Spain to Beverly Hills, they are surely a staple for the man and woman with class and style.
If you haven't jumped on the bandwagon yet, you can always visit www.audemarspiguet.com. We, like Bennahmias, recommend you give them call for that one on one attention. It's included in the price!
Most people have big dreams, and the only thing stopping them is funding. Well, not anymore. Manny Fernandez, CEO of DreamFunded, has created a platform that benefits the entrepreneur and the investor. Fernandez launched the company after founding the SF Angels Group, a group of 32 angel investors. He was recently seen on CNBC's Make Me a Millionaire Investor, and is a bestselling author. MillionaireMatch got the scoop on Fernandez and his passion to help entrepreneurs launch.
The big question from entrepreneurs is always about the money. How do they get it? "Raising money is hard," said Fernandez. "If more people had access to money, they could create more jobs," Fernandez offered. That is the reason why he created DreamFunded. He also had big dreams of creating a startup, and then he needed money to make that dream happen. Each startup is vetted before being asked to showcase on the site. Startups could get as much as $1 million of investments. Today, DreamFunded has investors all over the world. The platform allows people to invest in projects with as little as $1,000. "It's for the people who want to co-invest and find the next Twitter. You may not have to find them, because they could be within our network, " he explained.
Fernandez is well aware that many people who are passionate about creating businesses that solve a problem just don't have the right connections. Fernandez is one of the few Latino venture capitalists in Silicon Valley. In Hispanic communities, most go to family and friends for support when launching a business. With DreamFunded, he has brought together over 5,000 investors hoping to help the next Google. "You will have more people getting funding that can create the next Facebook, but no one knows who they are in advance," he said regarding co-investors.
Since he sits on the other side of the table, Fernandez shared some tips for entrepreneurs on getting funding. "Ask for advice from investors instead of pitching to them. In the beginning, a lot of investors were running away from me. Work with people that may have a shared passion in what you are doing. Create a relationship with them, and then present them an opportunity," he said. Building those relationships are key before making your big ask. He suggests getting a referral when possible.
He also looks for a few important things when he is considering putting up the big bucks. "The team. It's always about the team," he advised. Investors want to like the team they will be working with and investing in. "Everyone is moved by stories," added Fernandez. You should have a story behind your product or software that is going to solve a problem. "As an angel, we are emotional people. We are doing it because we like you, and we like the problem you want to solve," he said. They look for logical reasons to make an investment. He also believes attitude has a lot to do with it. That you should be confident knowing you are going to solve the problem through your startup. You have to be relentless and figure it out. "If you believe you are going to raise money, you are going to raise money," Fernandez said.

Cincinnati is Fat City
Greater Cincinnatians are among the fattest in the nation, a fact fueling thousands of resolutions on New Year's Day today to diet once again.
How fat are we?
Three in 10 Cincinnatians are overweight, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.
Nearly two in 10 risk ill health because they are obese.
More people here fail to exercise regularly or at all - compared to the rest of the country.
Cincinnati had the eighth-highest level of overweight residents per capita in the country, according to the National Weight Report of 1997, the last time the city was included in the report. Despite studies like this one that label Cincinnati a fat city and Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana fat states, Tristate health, nutrition and fitness experts say we just don't get it. The bottom line really is: We eat too much fattening food and don't exercise enough.
Are we just going to eat ourselves to death? It's like in Willie Wonka, that little blueberry boy. He just keeps getting bigger and bigger, says Lauren Niemes, executive director of the Greater Cincinnati Nutrition Council.
Changing habits key
To really be healthier, experts say, people need to dig deeper into their Queen City souls to discover why they overeat. And then they need to change their habits.
Florine Mark has heard every excuse in the book.
So when the president and chief executive officer of Weight Watchers says Ohioans don't exercise enough, don't eat enough fruits and vegetables but eat too much of everything else, you can't question her credibility.
You have great restaurants she says, but portion sizes to me are amazing.
Like most American cities, Cincinnati has its unique restaurants and specialty foods that give it a sense of community. You think Cincinnati, you think chili, chili three ways, chili four ways, chili five ways. Skyline has 59 locations.
I usually say to shoot for 50 grams of fat a day for adults, she says. To maintain their weight, most adults need about 1,600 calories a day.
Many people would say the quintessential Cincinnati restaurant is Montgomery Inn or its riverfront sister, the Boathouse. So popular are the two restaurants that together they ranked among the top 50 highest-grossing independent restaurants in the country in 1999.
Also that year, the Boathouse was sixth in number of meals served (800,000); Montgomery Inn was 17th (575,000 meals).
But when you order a slab of ribs with Saratoga chips and house beer, how much are you eating? The typical reference point for a serving of meat is a pack of cards. That's what 3 or 4 ounces looks like. A single 16-ounce slab of ribs is enough meat for four or five meals. Calories in that slab add up to 290 calories, and it has 23 grams of fat.
A typical restaurant steak can be 20-30 ounces. Do Ms. Niemes' math: That's enough meat for five to 10 dinners.
We've totally lost any perspective of how many calories we're actually consuming, she says.
I used to say get an entree and split it between two people. Now I would say split it between four people, she says.
Culture adding pounds
The city's ethnic heritage has added more than pride over the decades: It's also packed on pounds. Cincinnatians have grown accustomed to eating fattening food prepared in fattening ways.
About 45 percent of the city's population can claim German heritage, and more feel a certain Teutonic glow during Oktoberfest Zinzinnati when it's time to chug all that beer and chow down on all those brats and metts.
In the area of food, many German words just migrated directly into the English language, says Don Heinrich Tolzmann, director of the University of Cincinnati's German-American Studies program and president of the German-American Citizens League. Hamburger, frankfurter, wiener, noodle, strudel.
All those wieners and noodles have lots of calories, especially when a few ladels of gravy are added. And strudel is not generally known as a low-fat all-star.
Culture, whether you're raised on bratwurst or borscht, has a big impact on how people eat every day, says Pat Streicher, a registered dietitian and manager of the Cholesterol Center at Jewish Hospital.
And it's contagious. Cincinnatians expect to see lots of meat and potatoes on their plates, Ms. Streicher says. Start serving them chicken breasts the size of decks of playing cards and heaping helpings of broccoli and they're liable to revolt.
It's going against the culture here, Ms. Streicher says. The area's German heritage is one influence. The other is Southern, she says. There is a lot of Southern influence in the fried foods we love and the seasonings with salt pork and fatback, she says.
Kerry Brown, 44, of Avondale has fond memories of the meals her mother made. We just had normal food. Normal to me was chicken and pork chops, mostly fried foods, she says.
It's taken some practice, but Ms. Brown has learned to like non-fried foods. After several attempts, she's reached her goal weight and is a group leader for Weight Watchers.
I love Frisch's, she says, especially when she can dip her French fries in Frish's special tartar sauce. What she's learned, however, is to control portions.
Exercise not a priority
Despite a growing number of fitness clubs, sweat is not high on Cincinnatians' lists of things to do. In Ohio, eight out of 10 residents are at risk for health problems because of a lack of exercise.
The weather is a problem. It's hot and muggy in the summer and cold in the winter. Falls and springs are rainy, and there's all that pollen and mold.
The hills are a problem, especially going up them. But not moving at all is sending Tristaters' health downhill in a hurry, experts say. Lack of exercise is a big contributor to heart disease, hypertension and diabetes, all among the region's top causes of death.
Joyce Mulroy, 53, of West Chester didn't exercise for years. It was just too hard, she says. I just wasn't into it. I tried and I just found it boring. It hurt. I just didn't like it, she says.
That all changed in August when she and a friend started walking. Now she logs 2.5 miles a day and competes regularly in 5K walks.
Now I wouldn't miss a day. I haven't missed a day, she says.
She also signed up for the Optifast diet - the one Oprah Winfrey tried several years ago - and her calorie consumption consists of five chocolate shakes totaling 800 calories and more than 80 ounces of water a day.
The shakes, the water and the exercise are doing the trick. When she started the program, Mrs. Mulroy weighed 216 pounds. She's lost more than 77 on her way to her goal weight of 115.

Alabama basketball coach Tom Izzo, errr, I mean Michigan State coach Tom Izzo has gone Broadway, according to the Detroit Free Press. The coach will star in, "Izzo Goes to Broadway, a one-night-only engagement at the Wharton Center on the MSU campus. Showtime is at 7:30 tonight, and Izzo will sing and dance in the nearly 2-hour production that tells his life story through adaptations of popular Broadway hit numbers."
Nick Saban as a character in the MSU athletic director's book, Nick Saban acting in a movie and now Izzo in a musical.
That's a little too artsy if you ask me.

Beloved Painting
First and foremost, ignore the date. This painting was started and completed on July 21, 2012.
In addition to studying to get my Associates in Theology, I am currently taking a basic Greek course. The language to me is beautiful. The word above in the painting is a Greek word. It reads "Beloved". This particular spelling refers to beloved dearest. That spoke to me.
I can know that I am a Beloved Dearest to my Father in heaven; vise versa, my Father in heaven is my Beloved Dearest.

Tribal clashes are increasing as well. From MSNBC:
BAGHDAD, Iraq – The U.S. military said its forces killed an al-Qaida operative they named as Abu Islam and a number of fighters in air strikes at Karabila, close to Qaim, on the Syrian border on Tuesday.
"Intelligence leads Coalition forces to believe that Abu Islam and several of his associates were killed in the airstrike," a spokeswoman in Baghdad told Reuters.
Earlier, hospital officials told the Associated Press that fighting had broken out along the border between pro and anti-government tribes, leaving at least 35 people dead from both sides.
The outcome could affect the ease with which foreign extremists move in and out of the border area.
The clashes between the pro-government Bumahl tribe and the pro-insurgent Karabila tribe began after 2 a.m., in Qaim, said the officials at the Qaim General Hospital who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity for fear of insurgents…
Qaim, 200 miles west of Baghdad, witnesses clashes between the two tribes in the past days that left several people killed and wounded.

Did you paint it with an airbrush mate? I have just started to build a panzer 1V and I would like to have the same weathered snow camo look that you have achieved there with yours. Well done, Dave.

The attacker, who reportedly screamed Allahu Akbar, ran into an Edeka shop in the northern city of Hamburg and knifed a customer to death before slashing at four others as he fled.
He ran off but was pursued by passers-by who wrestled him to the ground and called police who made an arrest.
Heavily armed officers have locked the area down and police helicopters have been seen above the crime scene. A motive for the knifing has not yet been established.
According to Bild, the man shouted 'Allahu Akbar' as he launched the attack in a branch of Edeka, Germany's largest supermarket chain.
A witness told the newspaper: 'The man has suddenly struck out on customers, there was one dead and several injured.'
A major manhunt got underway and 30 minutes later pictures emerged of a suspect covered in blood, with a white bag over his head in a police car.
He is understood to have suffered minor injuries as he was being held by bystanders.
Hamburg police said on Twitter that there was only one attacker and that the motive for the incident in Hamburg's Barmbek district wasn't immediately clear.
They added that 'initial reports about robbery as a possible motive so far have not been confirmed.'

Quantic pairs up with frequent collaborator, Colombian singer Nidia Góngora (Combo Bárbaro, Ondatrópica) for an experimental, electronic take on the Pacific music of Colombia known as Curulao. "Dance led and rhythmically complex, this modern slant on a folkloric tradition brings a deep and edgy club sound." Nidia Gongora says, "Ñanguita" is an expression in my hometown to tell someone that you don't believe in their attitude or what they're saying… so I wrote itas sweet way of making of fun of someone, through all the experiences and anecdotes of my town…"

RIP, Kidpaddle.
I only played shinobi online once, but now the name will stick in my head for some very sad reasons. It is always sad to lose one of our number to disinterest or life issues but to lose someone permanently and suddenly is painful beyond what words can express. For whatever they are worth I give my best wishes to his friends, his family, and the BYOND community members who knew him personally.
I've worked with amir, Super cool dude. sad that Pokemon Atom never dropped :[
Rest in peace, Kidpaddle.
This hit home...Farewell long time friend, you were around during my beginning stages of designing & i was there for yours, like Goku & Vegeta, as Goku- you were always just a few steps ahead of me..
My humblest condolences to your family and your friends.
Rest in Peace, to one of the best developers in B.Y.O.N.D.
F Rest In Peace. May your soul linger wherever it desires.
rip, was a talented boy.
i still cant believe it...
Wow just got back from my break off byond to find this out, sigh Rest Easy Kid

Just past midnight, so still the 22nd to me: Andy and I went to The Winter's Tale at Shakespeare & Company with Jonathan Epstein as Leontes, Johnny Lee Davenport ast Polynixes, Elizabeth Aspenlieder as Hermione and an excellent Corrinna May who made Paulina work-- lots of others-- Jason Asprey as Autolycus, Ryan Winkles, who gets better, as Florizel. Malcolm Ingram in a few parts, such a trouper, Wolf Colemen as the young shepherd/clown. His dad directed, but he is a good clown anyhow. We had spitting seats, second row, and I really liked this production-- it's to me a tough play because of its totally un-modern psychology-- the blast of evil jealousy that just overwhelms everything, whoosh, and the 16 years later introduced by a character called Time, the crazy living statue, the "Exit pursued by a bear" which was my only disappointment as there was no bear, only a horrified Antigonus. Overall, I could hear the lines, I was convinced by Jonny of real feelings in the king sick with jealousy-- the Apollo's revenge was nicely done and truly moving when the king denies the truth of the oracle and gets blasted with death-- the Shepherd's festival full of Shakespeare & Company hijinks-- but mostly, it was just that once again, somehow, they made the play work.
It helped that I had seen it in the past and not gotten it, and I could hear better up close, that they always make sense of more lines than not, and especially, Corrinna May's active Paulina made a lot of sense of what was going on-- and Epstein's Leontes was masterfully sympathetic. Anyhow, I was glad read the Marjorie Garber essay, and glad I'd heard the lecture on the tape, but mostly glad that S&C do their thing so well, that they exist and have given me Shakespeare. Altoghter uplifted and happy and looking forward to doing it again soon.

What I find really interesting though is that some niches act as if they are immune to the constant pressures of the modern day marketer. In my experience, one of the biggest offenders is the music industry - specifically independent artists. I've been working in SEO and inbound marketing for about four years now and since I've always had a passion for music, I wanted to take some time to discuss some simple, highly actionable steps that musicians can take to start marketing their band like a boss.

I made a two layer sheet cake to serve as my canvas. The bottom layer is chocolate and the top layer is vanilla. In between and on top is cream cheese frosting (yes, I cheated and used store-bought frosting but I had difficulties with the frosting that I made). I did have to do some emergency trimming since I did not get the top layer centered on the bottom layer, but no one noticed. To make the insignia, I used black frosting with a fine decorating tip.
While at Michael's, my friend, Kelly, found some Superman cake decorations, so we added them to the cake for extra pandering.
Overall, I am quite happy with how the cake turned out. Val was pleasently surprised, though I did not get to see it since she accidentilly stumbled across it while I was at the store. Surprisingly, the cakes turned out very moist and densely packed. I am very happy with my cake baking skills recently because the majority of my cakes are turning out very moist, almost too moist to do anything with without the chance that they will fall apart.

Days 7 and 8 – Karijini National Park
Two full days of adventure is just the perfect amount of time needed to explore Karijini National Park and its amazing gorges. Formed over 2,500 million years ago, the Hamersley Ranges are some of the most unusual landforms on earth. You'll be able to take some great photos while you're here – perfect for your Facebook and Instagram feeds.
Deep in the gorges you'll come across cascading waterfalls and fresh, still waterholes that are ideal for swimming. Dales Gorge, Fortesque Falls, Fern Pool, Circular Pool, Weano Gorge and Hancock Gorge are just some of the unforgettable areas we'll visit. Definitely a highlight! (BLD)
Day 9 – Karijini National Park to Pilbara Region
Say your sad farewells to Karijini this morning as we travel towards the coast and the iron ore town of Port Hedland. We have time for a quick town tour and to marvel at the incredible size of the iron ore industry.After lunch we continue on towards the Pilbra region, where we spend the night together on an overnight station stay. (BLD)
Day 10 – Pilbara Region to Broome
En-route to Broome we enjoy a leisurely break and take in the glory of the stretching sands of picturesque 80 Mile Beach, one of Australia's most remarkable hidden gems. Enjoy a stroll along the white sandy beach and get some fantastic photos of the azure water, before our final leg into Broome where we say our final farewell. (BL)

Video rejoinder to Colbert and Congress: "Illegal immigration is no joke"Topics: Immigration and Border Issues, Political News and commentaries
Duane Lester offers up this "searing rejoinder" to the Colbert Congress fiasco last week (hat tip - Michelle Malkin):
Millions of illegals live in America. Some make slave labor wages, live on what they need and send the rest back home.Unfortunately for Colbert and the Democrats in Congress, the majority of Americans don't believe illegal immigration is a laughing matter and no amount of comedy is going to erase or cover up their awareness and concern over The Dark Side Of Illegal Immigration.
Other become killers. Some become monsters.
And Congress thinks it's funny.

Auto accidents are the most typical personal injury claims. To win an auto accident claim you have to have the ability to demonstrate the other driver in the automobile accident was negligent. Negligence implies that the other party did not do just what a reasonable, responsible driver would do under the same sort of circumstance. Examples associated with negligence are: failing to pay attention to traffic conditions, neglecting to stop at a stop sign or red light, exceeding the speed limit, and sending texts or talking on the phone while driving.
In some instances the driver plus the owner of the vehicle can be held responsible for an accident. In some instances a driver may be on the job when the accident occurs. In this instance the company in which he or she works could be liable for the damages.
FREE Case Analysis – Call (305) 860-1234
Damages are the type of of injuries or losses which are caused by an auto accident for which you can be compensated for. In auto accident cases Florida Legislation allows you to recover money with regard to lost pay and for the loss of the ability to earn wages from the automobile accident date and forward, for medical expenses brought on immediately by the accident and that might be ongoing later on due to the injuries, for damage to property due to the accident, as well as for pain and suffering. Hialeah Car Accident Attorney
Regarding "pain and suffering", Florida Law places an additional requirement on the injured person to be able to obtain money if the negligent motorist had PIP or No-Fault insurance protection at the time the accident took place.
In this case, the injured person will need to demonstrate that the accident caused at least 1 of four things to occur: 1) the accident resulted in death or, 2) permanent and significant scars or disfigurement or, 3) loss of important bodily performance or, 4) permanent injury. Frequently the insurance company for the negligent motorist will hire a physician to examine the injured person to determine if one of the four requirements was met to be able to claim money for pain and suffering. If the negligent driver was required to have PIP insurance coverage but didn`t have the insurance at the time the accident took place the injured person can seek money for pain and suffering without proving one of the four requirements.
Find An Experienced Attorney You Can Depend Upon
In Florida, every person who possesses a motor vehicle intended for use on the road must buy Personal Injury Protection Insurance (likewise known as No-Fault or PIP insurance). This insurance is designed to pay for 80% of your medical bills and 60% of your lost wages up to a combined maximum total of $10,000. When you select a deductible on your PIP insurance then the most it will pay out will be $10,000 less the deductible.
At Bloom and Kinnear we are frequently able to settle an auto personal injury claim without the necessity of filing a personal injury lawsuit, which could take a reasonable length of time to come to trial. We`ve acquired millions of dollars in compensation for our clients.

Casino Blding Location Write Up
The following was written by one of our newest memebers Devin, hopefully this will fill everyone in on the colorfull history of this beautiful building and location. Our broadcast will begin at 8pm PST / 11am EST and can viewed by going to www.livescifi.tv. Thanks - firstname.lastname@example.com
This building went up in the 1800's, nearest we can figure around 1812. There was ,how ever ,previous tenants to the land on which it is built. The building is built upon an old Indian burial ground. This land is said to be mystic and full of power.
The building has changed hands , and roles over the years. It was used as a warehouse, to store goods for the settlers in the area. This may explain the apparitions of the 2 "Long Riders", who pull up on there ghostly horses, tie them off , dismount and with long coats, cowboy hats, and clothes of an area gone by, they go through the front door.
It also contained a Vaudeville theater. There are a couple of actors who are still waiting for their curtain call. They show up as ghostly figures, and shadows. We believe that the Theater became a Blue's club, were non other than Jonnie Cash played a few times. The owner of the club ran on some hard times, and in a final act of desperation, took his own life. He can be heard playing a Blues tune from the other side. The Blues man, as he is known by around here, sometimes shows up holding his guitar and looking for the stage.
The building has also held a movie theater, and was the site of an Ice skating rink. One of these may explain the appearance of a young girl. She is said to be very cute, friendly and like to play pranks on people.
Things will suddenly be move to other parts of the building. She also likes to touch people when they least expect it.Maybe she would like to come out and play.
It also was the place of an execution. There was a Lynching that took place there. The young man who was hung, by this Lynch mob, is said to visit there as well. At this time, we cannot be sure if he was hung at the back stairs, or the big tree that was cut down a few months back.
The building is under reconstruction,and it is said that Spirits become more active when things are being changed.

Stanely Hotel - Broadcast
Wow I didn't realize it was over a month since we last updated our blog!! Well many exciting changes/investigations have happened since so I don't were to start. So I guess I will start by first telling everyone that this weekend we will be doing a 72 hour live interactive paranormal investigation at Stanely Hotel, in Estes Park Colorado. For anyone that is unfamiliar with the Stanely it is were Stephen King wrote and based his novel the Shining from. I have been there twice before and I can't wait to back, because the whole seems to ooze with paranormal activity. We have rented out all of the haunted rooms, so it will be very interesting to see if we can capture anything for our viewers while we are there.. All of the feeds can be watched by going to http://www.livescifi.tv/
Among other things we have been investigating the Burlington hotel for over a month now and have captured some really interesting EVPs there along with some very interesting personal experiences there. We plan to go back there later in the month to see what we can capture again. If anyone wants to see some of the evidence that we have obtained from this location you may visit our forums, at www.livescifi.tv/forums. Here is a sample of one of the Evps that we obtained.
Out of all the places we investigate it always amazes me that when you least expect activity to happen it occurs!

Officers Club / Moss Beach Distillery Review
The officers club investigation went off with out a hinch except for the fact that we gathered no evidence of any paranormal activity while we were there. However we were able to debunk within minutes the evidence that taps had gathered from the location.(ir - shadow) =P
Moss beach was much the same way if not quiter, we did however enjoy both of the locations and challenges that each one brought foward.

thermal cams..
Thermal cams are an unreveiled tool when it comes to ghost hunting equipement. They by far give the user and the viewer in our case the easability to see temperature variations...One of the major problems with this piece of equipment that I want to point out to our viewers is that since this piece of equipment is so sensative often times it can be misleading. One of the perfect examples that I would like to point out, was when one of our viewers saw a warm spot on the floor. Our first response was that we had no idea what or why this warm spot had appeared on the thermal. After reviewing video footage we uncovered that an investigator had prevoiusly sat where the warm spot occured on the floor an hour prior. This just goes to show how sensitive this piece of equipment is and how misleading the results can be if not used in a controlled setting.

Lost Archives....ARGH!!!
I'm not too happy right now. We lost all of our archives including the stream from last weekend's convention. This is a major bummer because we lost some great footage that we were hoping to review this week. Oh well, I guess that's just how it's going to be. Something needs to change soon because we also lost our stream from this past Tuesday. This is so embarrassing.
We just want to apologize to our viewers for this mishap. We're working on a solution so this won't happen again.

last night! pleasanton hotel.
Well nothing out of the ordinary happenend last night at the Pleasanton Hotel for me personally, although we still have tons of footage to go through you never know! One of our investigators Noreen said that she had heard an audible "thank you" that was said to her, and at one point we thought that a light was being turned on and off by its-self only to uncover that it was one of the staff members (Nancy) on the other side of building turning off another switch which caused them to flicker on and off..The hotel is an awesome building with loads of history, and is beautifully decorated. I would like to say a big thanks! for letting us come out there...=)

With the cost of living rising, many families are making the decision to have dad work away from home, especially single income families. Taking the opportunity to increase your income in the mining and resources industry has become quite popular in the last few years. Although financially rewarding it can sometimes be quite challenging for the whole family.
My husband has been working away for a year now and I will be the first to tell you it has been a rollercoaster ride. The first few months were great and the excitement of getting ahead financially and paying all our debts off kept me in high spirits. Hubby came home for one weekend every three weeks and those weekends were full of fun and I was fine, but it was the Easter break when he came home for six days that I realised how much I really had missed him and wanted him to be there every day. I was very emotional and cried every time I thought about dropping him to the airport. I didn't tell him I was starting to have second thoughts about him working away because I had to think of the end goal, we were on a single income and we would be so much better off financially. When he did go back I held it together for my two children but inside I was so sad and missed him terribly. I have people ask me how I can raise my kids on my own and how I manage to get everything done, but other than the loneliness I have honestly found everything fairly easy because I do have a great routine and structure at home and my kids know what they're always doing so life doesn't become overwhelming. I also have amazing friends who are always there to help me out or keep me company, especially the first few days after hubby goes back to work. My friends husbands are also great with my kids will often throw the ball around with them and do 'dad type' stuff with them. We also have skype so the kids can stay connected to their dad all the time and show him all the things they have made at pre-school or he reads them stories.
There are a few things you can do to keep the family unit strong
- Keeping the family in a routine – this way whether dad is home or at work the kids know they're safe and it will help them manage changes easier
- Both parents guide children's behaviour – the kids will always know their limits when both parents work together
- Meeting up with friends to keep your spirits high – sharing your feelings with your friends will keep stress levels low and help the kids cope with dad being away
Some ways of keeping dad connected with the family while he's away are
- Giving the kids opportunities to talk to him on the phone or skype
- Sending recent photos or video footage via email or facebook
- Sending dad care parcels full of letters and drawings
- Giving dad his own calendar so he knows everything the family is doing
- Send him text messages during the day so he knows you and the kids were thinking about him
- Dad can record a story on tape or cd so the kids can listen to it whenever they want
Some children don't cope well with dad being away so it is very important to talk about their sadness and their emotions. This will help establish good communication between the whole family and the kids will know their feelings are being acknowledged. It's always good to have dad tell the kids how much he loves them and that he is always thinking of them.

The cat has a preliminary check up with her vet before her next chemo session on Wednesday.
The appointment is for 9.30 am.
At 9.25 I'm struggling with the zip of my precious pair of Ugg boots. The only pair I will ever own or could ever afford. A pair of authentic Snowpeak waterproof Ugg boots, bought in the bargain shop of Schuh at ebay last summer, bidding starting at 90p. Yes NINETY PENCE. Went all the way to £39.99. For a pair of ex-display, slighty scuffed left boot pair. Did I say they were genuine UGG boots?
Today is the first day I took them out of their box, cut the label and tried them on.
The joy of my feet slipping in nicely makes up for the nervousness I am feeling for my cat. Ah lovely and warm and cosey and woolly - thank you, Aussie sheep!!! Thank you Schuh shop! Thank you ebay! Then I am instantly reminded once more. I know I do not have the slimmest of calves. I know I do have to wear boots that are "wide fit". I know, I know. I know.
Luckily, the veterinary surgery is opposite from where I live. A two minute walk. Luckily, I arrive just in time. The cat is thoroughly unimpressed of course, but the vet is cautiously optimistic. The cat has maintained her weight, looks brighter and may just be ok for another chemo session. We all hope so.
Another cautionary note: The Ugg boots are a size 5.5 - they are a very snug fit and I'm a normal size 5. I just have fat calves, but the zip went up and stayed up. So there.
