Let's Talk
Get Pre-Approved –- Make an offer: We will work together to fill out your mortgage loan application, review credit, and gather the documents needed for a pre-approval. A pre-approval lets you go shopping for a home with confidence so that you know exactly what you can afford and that you feel prepared to move forward! If you are looking to refinance an existing mortgage loan, this would be the stage that we review numbers for you to ensure your refinance is structured with your financial goals in mind.
Start the home loan process: Once you are under contract to purchase a home or ready to start a refinance, the loan officially begins. We will also work together to make sure that all your documents are up to date and ready to be processed. Your appraisal is ordered now to help you determine that the home's value is in line with your contract price if you are purchasing and in line with your financial goals if you are refinancing.
Submit to underwriting: At this time we will submit all of your loan documents to underwriting. Underwriting will review your file and give us a list of additional documents needed to close the mortgage. We will let you know if we need your help in gathering those documents. Once we have everything in, the underwriter will issue a final approval and clear to close on your home!
Closing!!: 3 days before the actual closing is set to occur, you will receive a copy of the Closing Disclosure to sign. Once this is signed, we are able to schedule your final signing at the title company. The title company is a 3rd party company that compiles all of the documents and helps to ensure all the funds are exchanged correctly between all parties. Once the funds are received at title, they will record the trust deed and the transaction will be complete! If you are purchasing a home, this is when you get your keys! If you are refinancing your mortgage, this is when your new loan goes into effect.

"Brandon with the Staples Group has managed three mortgages in the past 2 years for me. His level of service is absolutely excellent. After two years and numerous contacts with potential mortgage companies, Brandon & Becky were the only broker who figured out why I was having difficulty securing a HARP and managed to close that loan."
"Becky was awesome to work with during the mortgage process for our first home. From start to finish, she made it very smooth and always kept us in the loop with what was going on. Becky was very patient with me as I had her crunch numbers for several different scenarios and she seemed more than happy to do it. I would definitely recommend the Staples Group and all of their team to anyone looking to buy a home."
"We loved the services Aubrie us. Whenever I called or had a question, they could answer it in a timely manner. This was huge to us as purchasing a home is a major financial decision and we needed someone that could walk us throughout with knowledge and patience. Aubrie was also friendly and professional. They seemed to have our best interest at heart. Thanks a ton. We plan on referring any or our friends or family."
"I was purchasing my own home for the very first time. Nan Glauser was the first person I considered. I have known her for over 20 years and INTEGRITY is just one of the many words to describe her. She was on top of all the paperwork required and never steered me wrong. Was upfront on what my chances were for loan approval and gave me great suggestions to help my credit score… Highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home… When you get to meet Nan, you will see what a great, fun and positive person she is. Very contagious laugh and will provide the Best Customer Service on top of the wealth of information she gives you."
"My situation was not an easy one by any means. Brandon and Becky handled it like a couple of pros. If you are looking for people who know their stuff and actually care about their customers the Staples group is the way to go! "
"Susan Jarvis – Real Estate Agent – ERA Brokers Consolidated I highly recommend using The Staples Group when you need a mortgage expert! As a REALTOR I send my clients to Brandon & Becky Staples because I know they will get the answers they need and the service they desire. I appreciate the way Brandon and Becky make themselves available and facilitate the closings for my clients. All my clients love them!"
"Becky and Brandon were AWESOME! I Send all of my real estate clients to them, as when I purchased a home in October and I was told by a different mortgage company that I was getting the best deal possible. After a few weeks, I decided to get a second quote. Not only were Becky and Brandon extremely knowledgeable and friendly, they saved me a ton of money. My payment was a lot less and my fees to them were less. Thanks again you guys for the outstanding service and closing on time. You guys are the BEST!"
"The Staples Group were amazing. Not only do I send my clients to them, I used them on my personal purchase. They kept us informed about our loan. Told us about the timelines. They were patient with us. Expained everything we needed to know, they are execellent in their customer service!"
"I work with Becky and Brandon in a professional setting with my clients and have also worked with her on two of my loans. All I can say is Becky is the best!!! With my personal loans she was very helpful and on top of everything! Made my whole experience east and stress free! Will definitely be recommending her to everyone! Everyone at the Staples Group was great to work with!!!! "
"As I live in California and was purchasing a property in Utah, I had to do the entire loan over the phone which can be a bit scary. Initially, I was worried because I had never met them, but my realtor assured me they were the best! He was right! The service I received was very professional and high quality. I was very satisfied during the entire process including timely communication and efficient paper trails. It will be really easy to refer any future clients and friends. Thanks "
"We worked with the Staples Group as a recommendation from our Realtor. We had a short closing date to work with on a home purchase. Someone was always available to speak with me and I could tell that work was being done on our loan application outside of regular office hours. Becky and Aubry went above and beyond our expectations to get our loan closed. We will definitely do business with them in the future. "
"After working with multiple companies trying to refinance our house and being consistently frustrated with the lack of devotion and care given, Becky took the time to look at our situation and was able to refinance us and get us back to a normal rate when all others said they couldn't. We had a really high interest rate and an extremely high mortgage payment. Becky was able to save us over $700 dollars a month!!! Our situation simply needed somebody that was willing to put in a little extra time and go the extra mile which she did. They helped us to get back to normal after the economic downturn nearly ruined us. Now thanks to them we are buying again and there is nobody else we would even think to use. "
"My wife and I went to Becky and Brandon to refinance our home mortgage. Long story short, we now save over $800 per month on our payment! Not kidding. $800 per month. They are also a pleasure to work with. "
"I worked with Becky and Aubrie throughout the loan process and they were fantastic! The communication throughout was excellent, and I never had to wonder about where we were in the process. We weren't sure we'd qualify, but Becky helped us get everything where it needed to be and into the home we really wanted. We were under a time crunch and she was able to expedite things like the appraisal to get us into the home before we had to pay another months rent. Both Becky and Aubrie were a pleasure to work with and I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a highly competent, and very personable mortgage company. Thanks Becky and Aubrie! We love our new home!"
"Becky Staples and the rest of the team at First Colony Mortgage are mortgage experts. At the time we began shopping for our first home, I had just finished school in another state and was moving back to Utah a few months before I would begin a new job, and so we decided to use a lease option to purchase a home. When we first went under contract, we were actually using a different lending group for the mortgage. However, the other lending group gave us some inaccurate advice and offered us a loan program that ultimately was not available. These mistakes were significant enough that we were worried we would not be able to close according to our contract, and that we may even lose our option money, which was over half of our down payment. At this point, we listened to a family member's recommendation and got in contact with Becky and her team at First Colony Mortgage. They worked tirelessly with us, our realtor, and the sellers over the remaining months of our lease period. As a result of their efforts, we not only were able to close on our home, but we even saved money in comparison what we would have paid with the other lending group. On multiple occasions during this process, our realtor, who had never worked with First Colony Mortgage before, commented on how impressed she was that Becky was putting our interests ahead of her own."
"Brandon & Becky helped us get financing for our home. We were first time home buyers and they followed up with us every few days to provide status updates and make sure we had everything on track. They always answered or returned our calls promptly, were honest, and helpful. Once we got notice from the seller's bank that we could close(it was a short sale – Bank of America), Staples helped us approve and fund our loan not only in time to meet the 14 day deadline, but 4 days ahead of schedule! "
"I have known Brandon and Becky for a number of years. I have personally closed two loans with them and I have referred a number of home buyers to them. They do a great job, and I recommend their service to any of my clients needing a home loan! "
"The Staples team is the best of the best! I never hesitate to refer any of my clients to them because I know they are being taken care of. Communication is paramount in the loan process, and no one does it better then The Staples team. I will continue to use them because of the expertise and professionalism as well. You can always count on them getting the job done! "
My situation was not an easy one by any means. Brandon and Becky handled it like a couple of pros. If you are looking for people who know their stuff and actually care about their customers the Staples group is the way to go!
"I love working with the Staples Group! I never have to worry about lender issues when my buyers use them. They are proactive, and always make sure buyers are updated along the way. I recently completed a deal and my clients used a "national" lender, it was a good reminder of how important it is to stay local and use Becky Staples! If you are shopping for a lender I urge you to give the Staples Group a call."
"As a real estate broker, I get to work with most of the lenders in town. Becky & Brandon Staples and their team stand out as true professionals. They are the only lenders to whom I refer my clients, and are the only loan officers I trust to handle my personal and business loans. They consistently offer the best interest rates, best loan terms, and can usually close the loan ahead of schedule. If you want to work with a professional team who will exceed your expectations, you have no other choice. "

Alex Hughes, a product of the Cricket Derbyshire Academy in partnership with University of Derby, has quickly established himself as integral part of the Derbyshire squad.
2017 was a standout campaign for the all-rounder as he went on to enjoy the best season of his career, which earned him a new deal and committing him to the Club until the end of the 2020 season.
He hit over 1,000 runs across all formats, going on to receive his County Cap at the end of the season – only the second Academy graduate ever to be capped.
He was the Club's leading run scorer in first-class cricket hitting 800 runs, his most ever in a season, at an average of 40. He also topped the county's List A averages and added 180 runs in T20 Blast – also a career-best tally for a season.
More than useful with the ball, Hughes enjoyed his most prolific summer with the ball in 2018, finishing the Vitality Blast campaign as the Club's leading wicket taker with 17, including best figures of 4-42.
At the end of the same summer he signed a one-year contract extension to commit to the Club until the end of 2021.
Hughes made his first-team debut in a Twenty20 fixture against Yorkshire in 2011. It was his only senior appearance that year, but he went on to feature in seven 40-over matches and a further three 20-over games in 2012, earning him a new contract as a result.
Hughes appeared in the Club's final six Division One fixtures in 2013, starting with the victory at Hove, as a number of young players made their first-class debuts.
Hughes would claim six wickets and add 136 runs as Derbyshire claimed memorable wins over Sussex, Middlesex and Somerset. He also featured in three Twenty20 appearances and nine List A fixtures, compiling a top score of 59 not out in the county's victory over Essex at Leek.
Hughes scored his maiden first-class century versus Northamptonshire in 2015, as well as becoming a key component of the team in one-day competitions.
It was the foundations for what was to come from the talented home-grown player.

More fall blooms
Marigolds in the veg garden
If it weren't for some annuals and a few dahlias, the perennial gardens would be bloomless right now. And considering the snow which batted our heads when we loaded up the car this morning, I am wondering how long their tenure will be. The veg garden has a few blooms yet, and it is here one can still hear the buzz of bees, trying hard to wrest a bit of nourishment from a drowsy landscape. Ah me. If it weren't for the wonderful quality of light in October and November, that slanted light highlighting browns of all shades, I would really be a sad gardener.

We haven't had any snow here yet, but I've already shelved my gardening ambitions for next year.
All we have left for flowers are calendula and purple asters. Maybe a stray bit of salvia, too. And lots and lots of weeds.
- El said...
Liz, I'd prefer the slow spindown to winter that you're experiencing than this appetizer of snow, rain, snow. I can't even dry out all those beans! And don't get me started about the popcorn. Will it ever dry out? I have no idea.
Good news, I suppose, is it is predicted to be a much milder winter than usual. But why so early, I ask.

future of publishing: not books, bookisodes?
These days publishers crying poverty thrust myriad duties on writers aside from meeting manuscript deadlines: gathering blurbs, providing jacket photos, hosting book parties, arranging reading tours, (travel expenses unreimbursed), even negotiating shelf space. One intrepid author I know regularly tours NYC bookstores and reshelfs his book, facing out. Now writers are expected to create industrials?
More and more books sold on Amazon are accompanied not only by reviews and reader ratings, but by promotional videos. (Sorry, image isn't linked, click here and scroll down to video.) Chilling glimpse of a future of publishing that sidelines books altogether, publishing manuscripts direct to screen.

i'm grateful that literature is alive and well and thriving in many forms
One of the many things I'm thankful for today⎯books. Just finished The Help and A Gate at the Stairs, both novels I was sorry to finish as I so enjoyed being part of their worlds. I read them, however, without turning a page, downed them while biking around Central Park, hooked up to an ipod. At writer's conferences, I meet people who insist it's not reading unless you're holding dead trees in both hands. But I think that's like claiming that you can't hear Coltrane unless you listen to him on vinyl.
Of course, like most avid readers, I do love to turn pages. I just read The Humbling and The Anthologist in that delicious, tactile, old fashioned way. But reading the old fashioned way isn't always an option. Or, even the best one. David Griner, an advertising executive, is publishing a relative's diary in the form of tweets. Each day, an entry from a farm girl's 1937 "Line a Day" diary appears and, since the dates are coordinated, it is as if you're looking over her shoulder. The reading experience is enhanced by the fact it's published in a way that allows you to read the entries on the date that she wrote them. (Today's entry: To-day was Thanksgiving. Got off from school. -Nov. 25, 1937)
Next week, Rick Moody (The Ice Storm) is premiering a new story on Twitter. "Some Contemporary Characters" will be tweeted over the course of three days on Electric Literature, starting on Monday at 10 AM. A preview:
There are things in this taxable and careworn world that can only be said in a restrictive interface with a minimum of characters:
Saw him on OKCupid. Agreed to meet. In his bio he said he had a "different conception of time." And guess what? He didn't show.
It's the first time a writer who's a name in the handheld publishing world is debuting a piece of fiction on twitter. I'll be tuning in, thankful that literature, despite doomsayers, is being given new opportunities to thrive. Happy holiday, everyone.

warning: banks late fees still apply, even if you're deceased
Young & Rubicam puts out a (handheld!) newsletter twice a year for its "alumnai/ae", some of whom remember Y&R from the Mad Men era. A contribution by Dick Lord in the most recent issue highlights the importance of cancelling credit cards before you, um, go.
"A woman died last January and her bank billed her annual credit card service charges for February and March. They also added late fees and interest on the charges. The balance had been $0 when she died, but now it was growing. A family member called the bank to complain.
Family Member: I am calling to tell you she died back in January.
Bank: The account was never closed and late fees and charges still apply.
FM: Maybe you should turn it over to collections.
Bank: It's two months past due, so it's already in collections.
FM: What will they do when they find out she's dead?
Bank: Report her to the frauds division or to the credit bureau, maybe both.
FM: Did you just get what I was telling you--the part about her being dead?
Bank: Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor
Supervisor gets on the phone.
FM: I'm calling to tell you she died back in January with a $0 balance.
Bank: The account was never closed and late fees and charges still apply.
FM: You mean you want to collect from her estate?
Bank (stammer): Are you her lawyer?
FM: No, her nephew. (Lawyer info is given.)
Bank: Could you fax us a certificate of her death?
FM: Sure. (Faxes certificate)
Bank: Sorry, our system isn't set up for death. I don't know what more I can do to help you.
FM: Well, if you figure it out, great! If not, just keep billing her. She won't care.
Bank: Well, late fees and charges will still apply. (What is wrong with these people?)
FM: Would you like her new billing address?
Bank: That might help.
FM: Odessa Memorial Cemetery, Highway 129, Plot 69.
Bank: But sir, that's a cemetery.
FM: And what do you do with dead people on your planet?"tip of gray flannel fedora to GardenBroad

"The Apple store is the best ad we ever did for Apple" said the untiring (not retiring) Lee Clow on a panel entitled Truth in Advertising.
Apple is launching a new ad, er, a new store near Lincoln Center tomorrow.
Its glass arched ceiling and marble walls house will house the world's largest collection of Apple products in the world, and the most "geniuses" on-premise to service those products. It's meant to be not only a store but a hangout. The New York Philharmonic will perform there on Nov. 30 and weekly workshops in making music, action movies, photos and presenations will be available to kids. (Most of the first workshops are already full)
No wonder Apple stores are "the highest performing retail stores on the planet", selling almost as much as is taken in by the average Macy's. But can Apple do Santa and a Thanksgiving Parade?

new award show praises unsung heroes of the internet
The first annual Hive Awards went live yesterday. So named because of the "hive mentality" inherent in building a web site or application. It's the first show created to honor "the unsung heroes of the internet." Conceived by Alan Wolk (of Toadstool fame) to reward excellence in categories that haven't been given the stage before: information architecture, content strategy, coding, APIs and a other jobs rudely referred to as "backend." Entries are divided by industry category, allowing separate judging for each. Admirably levelling the playing field for contenders from categories as diverse as beer vs. pharma. Wish established award shows would make this distinction. Perhaps CLIO is leading the way, with its inaugural CLIO Healthcare awards ceremony taking place in New York tomorrow.

check out the latest in designer barcodes
Given the years and millions companies spend on packaging, surprisingly little attention has been paid to this critical part of every pack design. Japanese companies get it. They've been buying custom barcodes since 2005 from Design Barcode that charges $1500 and up for design, $200 a year for licensing. A pittance compared to redesigning a logo. And with so many stores going self-cashier, more and more eyeballs are searching them out. Why not build in some amusement...and branding?

now, a detergent for digital dirt
"Retracting something from the internet is like trying to remove pee from a pool," Ogilvy's Rohit Bhargava quipped recently.
Well, now there's an app for that. Wisk It helps you search Facebook for regrettable photos and remove them by sending a request to the person who posted them. Even more intriguing to me than the app itself is the fact that it's created by... a laundry detergent. What could be better advertising for Wisk than giving users a way to get rid of "tough stains like Spring Break photos." Kudos to TracyLocke Advertising. And to brand managers in Wilton, Ct. who've come a long, admirable way since Ring Around the Collar.

Originally Published: On the Baseline
Flushing Meadows — Hindsight is 20/20, or at least that's what
Victoria Azarenka is hoping for when she faces Serena Williams in the
U.S. Open women's final on Saturday night.
World No. 1 Victoria Azarenka has advanced to her first-ever U.S.
Open final, and just to add a little bit of icing to that cake, the
match will be played in prime time, on Arthur Ashe Stadium, under the
lights. She's had a phenomenal season, with the best W/L percentage on
hard courts this year (32-2, 94.1%). She already has one Grand Slam
under her belt (2012 Australian Open), and is hoping for her second. She
hasn't lost a three-set match this year. Now 12-0.
Her opponent, Serena Williams is coming off one of the best summers
of her career: Wimbledon champion, Olympic Gold Medalist, and now, her
sixth U.S. Open final. But even prior to this year, the 14-time Grand
Slam champion has proven to be a huge obstacle for Azarenka, with a 9-1
lead in their head-to-head match-ups. They faced each other in the 2011
U.S. Open (third round) and Azarenka lost in straight sets. This year,
Serena has defeated Azarenka in all three of their matches (Madrid
final, Wimbledon semifinal, and the Olympics semifinal). Serena has a
6-1 W/L record in three set matches for this year.
What tactics does Azarenka need to use to successfully maneuver
around Serena's power game? "I have to try to return well, definitely,
and serve," said Azarenka, after defeating Sharapova in the semifinal on
Friday. "With Serena, it's not really the long rallies. It's all about
who grabs the first opportunity, who is more brave to step it up right
from the beginning."
Easier said than done. Heading into her 19th Grand Slam final, Serena leads the pack for the highest number of aces at the U.S. Open: 50. That's right. 50. She
is also 3-0 over world No.1 players in Grand Slam finals: 1999 US Open,
vs. Martina Hingis; 2002 Wimbledon vs. Venus Williams, 2005 Australian
Open vs. Lindsay Davenport. The three-time U.S. Open champion hasn't dropped a set coming into the women's final.
A win on Saturday would give the 30-year-old her fourth U.S. Open title, 13 years after she won her first U.S. Open title in 1999.
Serena seems to have a certain controlled calmness about her
(uncharacteristically so), as well as more continuity in her game, which
makes her appear even more intimidating.
"I don't have anything to lose, said Serena on Friday, after her
semifinal win vs. Sara Errani. I feel as though I'm going up against the
most consistent and the best player this year [Victoria Azarenka]. She
then clarified her statement by saying "I always believe that I'm the
best. On paper, she's gone much deeper in Slams than I have."
Also in Friday's press conference, Serena said that she feels "more
experienced" this time around, after her surprise loss to Sam Stosur in
the 2011 U.S. Open final.
Serena may not need to draw on her own 20/20 hindsight to win the
U.S. Open final. She may just have to keep doing what she's been doing
since the first round: Demolish her opponents with her power, serve, and
incredible ability to hit any angle from anywhere on the court.

Win: For the ODI series, our target should be to win all three
of the matches. Well, I know, you know, and all of us know that this will not
happen. But we should not take any defensive approach in order to have a better
loss. We need to be offensive even if that means a huge defeat. Hopefully that
will bring us one win.
400+ Runs: What a coincidence! Our highest team total is the
same as our opponent's one man's total! Not good! We need to get rid of it.
Since the first test, we have never gone beyond 400. We should target that in
at least one of the four innings in the Tests.
A defensive approach to win a Test: I do not think that a
test win will come in this tour. But, if we don't try, it will never
come. However, if we do have the chance of securing a draw, we should go for
it. We should not risk too much for a test win, as oppose to ab ODI win.
Focus on Captain: Because we had a win, and the team performance
was impressive during the Zimbabwe tour, Habibul
Bashar's captaincy and performance went unnoticed. It would have
been discussed much more had it been otherwise. Including everything, his performance,
the Rafique incident, the batting lineup and bowling handling, I can not give
him a grade of more than F- (F minus). Yes, I am keeping in mind his
innings in the match we won. But he was no where near his ability nor what he
should have done. It is time for him to show that he deserves to be the captain
of the team.
Opening Pair: Having 4 candidates to open from a 18 member
team, is making it hard for us to guess who will open. It is almost certain
that Manjurul
Islam Rana will open in the ODIs as suggested by Whatmore,
and keeping Javed
Omar in the Test squad implies that he will open in the Tests.
Now, who will be their partners? I think it is a bad idea to decide it just
before the game, because the players do not get a chance to prepare mentally.
It is time for us to stop experimenting with opening and set a fixed pair for
each type of game, ODI and Test. No, I do not have any suggestions here, because
this task is not easy and this
thread on the BanglaCricket forum touches on that.
Get Prepared For longer Innings: Our players have a problem
with playing longer innings no matter where. Domestic or ODI or Test, we do
not get long innings. This needs to stop now. I would like to see some centuries
from our top order. It is even more important for ODI since we have only one
century there. It is really unfortunate that while we have played so many ODIs,
we only have one century. Players do have the ability, but they do not have
the mentality. Habibul
Bashar Sumon has to be real careful here. While he can be a good
inspiration for them, he can also have a negative impact. If he keeps throwing
his wickets recklessly after getting set, this could set a bad example for the
team and other players might start to follow it subconsciously.
Let us hope for the best.

Finding a good pair of headphones can be quite the challenge. Not only because the number of choices that are on offer has significantly increased in recent years, but also, because of the price chasm that exists between the very good headphones and the more affordable ones. Well, thankfully every so often a very good pair of headphones becomes available at a much more affordable price.
This is the case with a deal currently live on Amazon. Sennheiser is known for being one of the more high-end audio companies and a name that you can trust when buying. Not to mention, their Momentum On-Ear Headphones is a great example of the type of quality the company offers. These are very soft and well padded headphones which look to reduce the level of outside noise while also maintaining a decent level of comfort when being worn. Not to mention, a much deeper bass for those who like that sort of thing. While the Momentum On-Ear Headphones come with a $259.99 list price, all the colors are currently on sale for around the $100-140 marker. Although, the red color option is currently available for only $64.99 which it makes it a great time to buy. Click the link below to find out more or order a pair of red Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear Headphones for only $64.99.

The city of Detroit has a lot of problems… Just this week it had quite the little snafu with the electric service, and crime, particularly arson, continues to ravage much of the struggling city. We've talked about Detroit's problems with abandoned buildings a lot, but we haven't talked much about a good solution. Until now. One man hopes to save at least one giant abandoned Detroit eyesore with the wonderful power of techno music.
Meet Dimitri Hegemann. Apparently, he's quite the big deal in the European techno music scene, having founded the "famous" Tresor techno club in Berlin in the basement of a former department store. (It's since been relocated to a renovated electrical power plant.) Hegemann is also a big fan of "Detroit Techno," and wants to help the American city he loves so much buy opening a techno nightclub in the abandoned Fisher Body Plant #21.
Hegemann told the Detroit Free Press all about his big ideas for the crumbling 6-story building currently covered in graffiti after touring it with other visitors this week and wants to tell anyone who will listen more about his plan this coming Saturday (December 6th) from 4-6pm at Trinosophes.
There he'll be telling you all about how they used abandoned spaces to transform Berlin as well as his plans for repurposing the Fisher Body Plant No. 21.
To be honest, it wouldn't be the first time the Fisher Plant was repurposed. First used to produce auto bodies, the plant served as a soup kitchen and shelter during the Great Depression, an assembly plant for airplanes during WWII, and a limo production plant for Cadillac after the war before totally going dark in the 1980s. Today, it's owned by the city.
But a techno nightclub isn't Hegemann's only vision for the space... The Detroit Free Press says:
Detroit's Fisher Body Plant No. 21 could be viewed as a hopeless eyesore. But Hegemann, founder of the world-renowned Tresor club and record label, sees in it potential for a nonprofit arts venue and techno nightclub with authentic industrial grit — and perhaps a co-working space, youth hostel and a pop-up restaurant.
Hegemann said he is not in Detroit to make money. He said he believes that his Fisher Body Plant project could help elevate the city's arts and cultural scene, attract more visitors and give a boost to the economy, similar to what happened in Berlin after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
"The main intention is to bring more people to Detroit," he said. "The whole thing for me will be an art piece. Maybe it takes 10 years."
So maybe, just maybe, Hegemann can help Detroit dance its way to solvency.

"With a large number of tribes, inheritance is based on maternity. Paternity is immaterial. Brothers and sisters are only the children of one mother. A man does not bequeath his property to his children, but to the children of his sister, that is to say, to his nephews and nieces, as his nearest demonstrable blood relatives. A chief of the Way people explained to me in horrible English: "My sister and I are certainly blood relatives, consequently her son is my heir; when I die, he will be the king of my town." "And your father?" I inquired. "I don't know what that means, 'my father,' answered he. Upon my putting to him the question whether he had no children, rolling on the ground with laughter, he answered that, with them, men have no children, only women."
We were once matrilineal. We were once matriarchal. Throughout most of human history paternity was never acknowledged. It didn't matter if women were promiscuous. It didn't matter how many lovers or husbands they had. The family line and all inheritance was passed through the mother and fatherhood was an unknown concept. Of course, under such a system societies were very primitive. Not much progress really happened in the world. At least, not until the invention of patriarchal societies. Patriarchal societies were ushered in and the sexual freedom and promiscuity of females was brought to a halt. Inheritance was not passed down through the mother anymore, but through fathers. The legacy of feminism has been to overthrow this system. For the feminist movement, any kind of living arrangement was upheld to be acceptable. Illegitimacy was to be accepted and welcome the same as legitimacy, legally sanctioned and subsidized. "There's no such thing as an illegitimate child" was the motto. Our laws changed in accordance. The gave the unwed father rights, they gave the unwed mother welfare and child support and the patriarchal system crumbled with easy divorces.
This system was supposed to benefit women. Alimony was "sexist" and supposedly keeping women from true fulfillment by keeping women dependent on men. The role of the housewife was making women "subordinate" and "second-class." A social revolution ensued leading to widespread illegitimacy, broken homes, crime and poverty. Not very long after this revolution feminists panicked. Books such as "Mothers on Trial," "The Divorce Revolution," "The Equality Trap," "Backlash" and "Equality with a Vengeance" started flooding the market and still flood it today. Feminism has created a backlash and ruined the security and well-being of millions of women. But they wouldn't dare tell women they are at fault. They just want to keep pressing forward with their agenda.
The legitimacy principle is that every child must have a father- but legitimately through marriage. But to the feminist this is no so. To the feminist and our society and legal system today legitimacy no longer matters anymore. Today it would be seen as so wrong and the upmost of all politically incorrect things to declare a child as illegitimate. But this is the way a patriarchal society must work.
"The feminist will insist that the boyfriend is equally responsible with the mother for the procreation of the illegitimate child and therefore equally bound to pay for its costs. Not so in the patriarchal system. Patriarchy divides women into good and bad, those who accept the Sexual Constitution (sexual law-and-order, monogamy, the Legitimacy Principle, the double standard, etc.) and those who reject it. This woman rejects it, and she is "bad" because she denies to a man the possibility of having responsible sex with her even if he wants to. Her unchastity deprives her child of a father and deprives men of the possibility of being a father to her children. She can have a sexual relationship only with a man as irresponsible as herself. She is a sexual Typhoid Mary who has inflicted illegitimacy upon a child and seeks to ameliorate what she has done by demanding to be paid for it. She will plead as justification that "there is no such thing as an illegitimate child," signifying there is no such thing as an unchaste woman."
If women and children are living in poverty today then it is because the patriarchal system is gone. The woman who bears an illegitimate child without seeking to make that child legitimate expects that she will still receive support. The feminists will point to the fact that women and children are living in poverty as a way for her to receive even more support and government assistance.
"The Promiscuity Principle entitles her to paternity suit income. It is her right to control her own sexual behavior–including the right not to use contraceptives–and to impose the economic costs upon one of her sex partners–if the District Attorney can round up her playmates, compel them to take blood tests, and identify the lucky one. Then her sexual irresponsibility will pay off and reinforce society's acceptance of the first law of matriarchy, otherwise known as the Promiscuity Principle."
Enforcing even more child support and demanding even more welfare creates a backlash. It creates men with a victim complex who are unmotivated and unwilling to marry. It creates more men's rights activism which only creates even more feminism and in turn even more women and children are hurt in the process.
Ultimately these women wreck the security of good women. All patrilineal societies are fragile. They require female subordination to patriarchal authority and regulation of female sexuality. If women are unwilling to submit, then the system is ruined. Feminism has ruined that system and now, instead of the patriarchal, male-headed household we have what can be termed "rotational" and "blended" families. What we have is broken families. Families that are actually intact are rare.
"The workability of the patriarchal system requires the regulation of female sexuality, including the enforcing of the double standard. In no other way can men participate meaningfully in reproduction. A woman violates the Sexual Constitution by being promiscuous. A man violates it by refusing to provide for his family. The new feminist sexual order proposes that women shall be free to be promiscuous and that the social disruption thereby created shall be made tolerable by compelling men to provide for non-families. But men cannot be held responsible for female irresponsibility if this irresponsibility prevents them from having families to begin with; and it is for this reason that patriarchy holds a man responsible only for the subsidization of a wife, a "good" woman who accepts the Sexual Constitution and her obligation under it to bear only legitimate children"
Patriarchy provides a woman with her most surest source of fulfillment. But a woman cannot have such fulfillment unless she submits herself to patriarchal authority and the legitimacy principle. When she enters into a contract of marriage with her husband under the patriarchal system it is permanent and binding. She agrees to share her reproductive life with her husband and only him. In turn, he provides for her and places her under 'coverture.' Such a system is what is needed to build civilization and lift women and children out of poverty. More child support is not what is needed. Most men will evade paying it anyways and he can always just pull out the custody card anytime he objects to the amount, leading to more hardship for the mother and child and an even greater prospect of being shoved deeper into poverty.
"'Now here's how it is… Poor black men won't support their families, won't stick by their women–all they think about is the street, dope and liquor, women, a piece of ass, and their cars. That's all that counts. Poor black women would be fools to sit up in the house with a whole lot of children and eventually go crazy, sick, heartbroken, no place to go, no sign of affection–nothing.'
Ms. Robinson's complaint is that men won't love, honor and protect their families–which is patriarchy. She cannot see that the first law of matriarchy has deprived these men of families and therefore of the motivation which would keep them working."
The talk of "women's rights" always centers around autonomy, freedom and a paycheck. Nobody ever considers that the best interests of women could be found within the traditional male-headed family. Women must make a tradeoff for such a system but they don't like it. Our laws before feminism gave the man the authority- and responsibility- in the household. The husband controlled the property, finances and his wife as much as his children. The divorce rate was extremely low. The rate of married women working was extremely low. Everything stared to go downhill with the destruction of coverture and the destruction of the husbands ultimate authority in the household. Things got real out of control with women's lib, 'no-fault' divorces , the subsidization of illegitimacy and the flooding of married women into the workforce. The word "family" can mean a million different things today. Practically anything one wants it to mean. That's how far gone we are as a civilization.
"Providing for a woman and placing her "under coverture" in the honorable state of marriage is perceived by today's feminists in wholly negative terms as dominance, regulation and oppression. Feminist Dr. Alice Rossi speaks of "an exchange" between a husband and a wife in which the husband confers social status on the wife and "in exchange…she assumes economic dependence on him"–permits him to pay her bills. It doesn't occur to feminists that "their subordination in sexual matters" benefits women as much as it benefits men. It means law-and-order in the sexual realm and the creation of wealth in the economic realm. It means stable families which provide women with security and status and in which children can be decently reared and socialized. "
The best thing for any movement claiming to benefit women to do would be to bring back the traditional patriarchal family with the father as it's head. It is only the patriarchal family that can serve the best interests of mothers and children. It is only this system that can truly motivate men to be productive and care for women and children. But in order for this system to work, cohabitation, female promiscuity, divorce and illegitimacy cannot be tolerated. It may not always be 'fair' but it is the best way to protect women and ensure the best interests of children and the overall social order.

Is Loch Leven Castle Haunted?
Loch Leven Castle is relatively small, consisting mainly of an outer curtain wall, the tower house and another smaller tower called the "Glassin Tower".
Probably originating as a small stone-built keep Loch Leven was a royal castle from 1257.
The English Army built a fortress there at the end of the 13th century. Slightly later The English besieged the castle in 1301, but it was saved by John Comyn before it could be captured.
Blind Harry's story of William Wallace suggests he may have captured it and it was certainly in Scottish hands when Robert the Bruce came to the castle in 1313 and again in 1323.

Pope Francis will be setting off shortly for World Youth Day in Krakow, Poland
On the face of it, Pope Francis's trip to Poland for World Youth Day (WYD), which begins tomorrow, will be a unifying triumph for him, the Church, the 2 million people gathering from 187 countries and for the devoutly Catholic country itself.
Yet beneath the surface, there is a tension between this Pope and a country which has veered towards a hard-right approach to immigration and which still sees John Paul II as "the Pope".
Last October, the ultra-conservative Law and Justice party (PiS) took power. Representatives of the PiS have long been involved in controversies and accusations of racism over the years.
At the same time as Pope Francis was calling on the world to open its arms to refugees amid Europe's worst migration crisis since World War II, Poland refused to take in newcomers because of supposed security risks.
And when on Maundy Thursday this year Francis washed the feet of three Muslim asylum seekers, there were "howls of criticism" and even "hate speech" in Poland, according to Polish media.
Ignacy Dudkiewicz, an editor for the Kontakt magazine told AFP that there was unprecedented online abuse aimed at the Pope following the gesture. "Francis has been dragged through the mud because of his position on refugees," he said.
True, Prime Minister Beata Szydlo released 803,000 Euros in funds for camps in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey just ahead of Francis's arrival. But critics dismissed it as a token move.
"Many here think the pontiff's message of mercy and compassion for refugees and the poor is exaggerated," said Zbigniew Nosowski, editor of the respected Catholic monthly Wiez.
Even Polish bishops failed to mention Pope Francis in their address to the faithful gathering for WYD, while John Paul II was referenced three times.
Dudkiewicz said: "Bishops here formally support the pontiff's message of hosting refugees, but they do so without much conviction."
He added that "the Polish Church is afraid of losing its position, both institutional and financial, he added.
Pawel Boryszewski, a sociologist of religion, said of Pope Francis's famously humble style: "The Polish hierarchy is very worried. A bishop on a bike and in sandals, this doesn't go down well here...Poles don't really know Francis, just like this Argentinian pope doesn't know Poland."
Jaroslaw Makowski, a liberal Polish theologian, said: "I am absolutely convinced the meeting between Francis and the Polish Church will be challenging for both sides. When he was invited to Poland in 2013, he was unknown... But after a few months it became clear he isn't what was expected...but someone who wants to shake up the Church and push it off the path familiar to the Polish Church."

CORAL GABLES — The Hurricanes returned to practice Friday on a sauna-like morning. Onlookers were begging for air conditioning. It was damn hot.
With the first scrimmage of camp two days in the rear-view mirror, here's what we saw during the 15 minutes of media viewing:
Two return: Standout defensive end Al-Quadin Muhammad and linebacker Jermaine Grace returned to practice and appeared to be full-go. Both players missed time Thursday to deal with the ongoing luxury rental car situation.
Three absent: Senior tight end Stan Dobard, redshirt freshman safety Robert Knowles and senior fullback Gage Batten were not present. All three are injury-related. A source told The Post that Dobard has an ankle injury, and that Knowles has a hand injury.
Coach Mark Richt confirmed The Post's report after practice.
Batten, who missed the spring with a broken foot and has not fully participated in fall camp, had surgery to remove a plate in his foot.
Depth chart notes: Quarterback Malik Rosier again ran the second team for the early part of practice. Given his experience (Duke, 2015), it seems like he's the odds-on favorite to back up Brad Kaaya. Evan Shirreffs was the No. 3, with Jack Allison and Vincent Testaverde behind him. Running backs Mark Walton and Joe Yearby continue to alternate first-team reps.
One more thought: defensive tackle RJ McIntosh is a good bet to be one of the Hurricanes' breakout players. He is 6-foot-4 and has bulked up to a lean 290 pounds. A former basketball player, he is a fast, fluid athlete. He's been running with the ones since spring.
Next up: Coach Mark Richt will address the media before noon.

PARIS (Reuters) - European planemaker Airbus expects its A350 mid-sized jetliner program to be profitable from 2019 before becoming a prime source of profits, Chief Executive Fabrice Bregier said on Tuesday.
Airbus has firm orders for 780 A350s from about 40 airlines around the world, Bregier said a day after its first delivery of the aircraft to Qatar Airways.
"We think (it) will become profitable towards the end of the decade, so towards 2019," Bregier said on RTL radio. "From then, it will be one of the biggest contributors to Airbus' profitability."
Airbus' newest jet, the A350 was developed at a cost of 11 billion euros ($13.45 billion) and is designed to compete with the twin-engined Boeing 787 and 777 models.

Last week, I wrote about a software company, Stride, that is trying to pare back customer relationship management (CRM) just to the sales workflow process. On the opposite end of the spectrum are companies like Infusionsoft, which is seeking to offer small businesses a wide range of capabilties that stretch across CRM, marketing and e-commerce.
The company's big plug is that small companies can capture virtually every imaginable data point about customers and prospects and use Infusionsoft's integrated platform to many that information. The service links closely with your company's Web site, which is useful for small businesses with e-commerce needs who want a more holistic view of how a particular marketing campaign influences sell-through, said Rebecca Sprynczynatyk, director of product marketing for Infusionsoft.
"You are able to see everything that this contact is doing when he or she interacts with the Web site," she said.
In April, Infusionsoft launched a marketplace that includes more than 50 third-party applications that connect Infusionsoft with other tools, such as SMB text messaging, payment system or mobile applications.
Luc Stokes, owner of San Diego-based Degree 33 Surfboards, uses Infusionsoft to create integrated and automated marketing campaigns and to manage his CRM needs. For Stokes, one of the biggest benefits is its ability to let him schedule these activities far into the future. "I can click run and it really takes care of the rest," Stokes said.
That's important, because Stokes and his team needs to spend as much time out in the field as possible, testing new products and building interest in the ones that it already sells. Since Degree 33 adopted Infusionsoft, it has seen a 45 percent increase in revenue. You could debate whether or not those increased sales are related to the Infusionsoft deployments, but Stokes said the service has absolutely had a positive impact on productivity.
Small companies can gain access to Infusionsoft's standard basic marketing and lead generation package for $199 per month for up to 2 users and 5,000 contacts. The pricing ranges upwards from there.

Could your cardiovascular health or your "vascular age" be a more accurate indicator of your health and longevity? Some cardiovascular experts today believe so.
Your arteries need to remain elastic and flexible in order to effectively transport blood and nutrients to all your cells and tissues. Researchers now realize much of that depends on your body's balance of vitamins K2, D, and calcium.
You want calcium to go to your bones and teeth, and not your arteries and organs. A protein called MGP (matrix Gla protein) is key for preventing the unwanted buildup of calcium in your arteries and requires vitamin K2 to function. Researchers have discovered that healthy arterial tissues contain up to 100 times more vitamin K2 than calcified arteries.*
Restoring blood levels of vitamin K2 can potentially help reverse the buildup of calcium caused by a vitamin K2 deficiency.* Considering that an estimated 97 percent of the Western hemisphere may be deficient in vitamin K2, this is a nutrient you don't want to ignore.
My Vitamin K2 supplies a nutritional dose of 180 mcg of a patented form of vitamin K2, MenaQ7®. This is the first and only clinical proven vitamin K2 for both bone and cardiovascular health.* Studies show MenaQ7®:
With my Vitamin K2, you receive the exact same dosage used in the studies and recommended by experts: 180 mcg. And it's produced from natto using chickpeas so it has high bioavailability and efficacy, and is soy-free.
Vitamin K2 contains no bioengineered ingredients and guarantees a high level of quality, safety and efficacy.
Don't take a chance with your cardiovascular health – order Vitamin K2 today!

Recently there has been a lot of buzz about "mobile friendly websites and how important they are. You may have head other terms such as "adaptive or "responsive but essentially they all mean the same thing. Making your website work well on a mobile device! With a large number of internet users now using their smartphones to connect to the internet and expecting to see mobile friendly websites, you cannot afford not to have one.
Google has recently released a large update to its Search ranking algorithm. Imagine you are selling your house and need a electrician, you pull your phone out of your pocket, get onto Google and search "Electrician. Here is what you see;
Youll notice that under the green website url there is a light grey "Mobile-friendly banner. Google can now tell if your website is mobile friendly and will use that as another ranking factor to calculate where you should be on the search results.
Here are is an example of a website (viewed on a smartphone) before having our "mobile-friendliness added in;
This is a screenshot of a non-mobile friendly website. To find what you want is a struggle! You have to swipe here, pinch and zoom there and half of the buttons dont work. We all hate that experience and so, why would we want to give our website visitors that experience?
Here is the same website but in a "mobile-friendly website. You can see that everything fits the screen and is easy to read. There are already a few traits we can see here;
1. Call now is a link
If you click on the telephone number your phone will ask you if you want to phone that number. If you click "No then nothing will happen, if you click "Yes then your phone will proceed to phoning that number. How amazing is that? There is no writing down, there is no copy and pasting or even trying to remember the number!
2. The famous "Burger menu icon
Youll see that on the top right hand side there is an icon. Its three white lines on top of each other.
You have probably been seeing that a lot lately. What is it? Well If you click on that it will show a menu like this;
The menu is now easy to use, the links are not small hard to touch icons, they are large boxes that you cannot miss!
At Hat Trick Media we offer "mobile friendly design packages. Here is some more information;
Your website is designed to fit on any device using calculations and percentages. Basically when a user loads up your website on their phone, tablet or pc the website will react accordingly and display a calculated page. On the page everything will be done be percentages, for example: Font Sizes, Box Sizes and Images.
The adaptive method is slightly different from the responsive method. When designing the website or event changing a current one you decide which devices you wish to target with your now mobile friendly design. You could for example just show it on an iPhone or an iPad.
If you would like to add a sprinkle of "mobile friendliness to your website then please feel free to give us a call on 01476 576 839 or email us on email@example.com.
