This year, the Daytona Beach police explorers got creative in their fundraising. They decided to sell police caricature T-shirts, depicting our police officers as the "Scumbag Eradication Team".
This is great! LOL. And apparently I'm not the only one who thinks so. The police explorers originally only printed 300 of the T-shirts that say "Scumbag Eradication Team. Not in our Town!" Those 300 shirts all sold within 3 days. So another 250 were ordered, and again sold right away. I have no news on how long the program will continue.
The Explorer team, and now the accompanying T-shirts serve the purpose of helping teens, aged 14-19 learn about careers in law enforcement. I read in a local new article that the idea actually came from the father of Police Chief Mike Chitwood, who is the police superintendent in Pennsylvania. Apparently father and son, liberally use the word scumbag to define criminals. And Superintendent, Mike Chitwood Sr. ran a variation of the same program a couple of years ago.
As usual, there are critics who say the shirts send the wrong image, but overall, the program has been a huge success in paying for the uniforms of the Police Explorers.
Whatever your personal feelings on the T-shirt, it's good to know that education is being offered to teens and our local police are on the job.

Recently, some Port Orange neighbors had a feud over a 1,000 watt light bulb that was shining from one house, onto the other.
As usual, not all neighbors can get along. And in this case a feud between nieghbors over a bright light, resulted in a change in the rules regarding how bright, outdoor louds are allowed to be. This new rule was added to the city's Nuisance Ordinance. It basically allows for safety lights, but not nuisance lights. So you're not allowed to decide you dislike your neighbor, and install excessively bright lights that shine directly on neighbor's house.
Yeah, I know. It sounds ridiculous that a simple feud would result in such silliness, but it sometimes happens. I'm just happy that I live in a city that takes it seriously when citizens have complaints or concerns. I'm a Daytona Beach native, which is just 7 miles north of Port Orange, and I sell real estate all over Volusia County. But I live in Port Orange and I love it! That much is evident in the many blog posts I've written about Port Orange. You can read them below =)

Jill's tips for making more money in real estate today
2. MAXIMIZE YOUR INCOME
The most basic essential of success is working in a system that pays you the most money. Ask your company for a 100% contract. If they won't give it to you, call me. I will.
3. REDUCE YOUR EXPENSES
That could mean everything and anything from co-op advertising and marketing plans, to affiliating with a company that doesn't make you pay for other agents' waste. Fee for service is the only way to protect yourself from this costly mistake.
4. MARKET YOURSELF MORE EFFECTIVELY
The 80/20 rule is changing! Now, 10% of all the agents in the business are controlling the vast majority of the market. These agents all have one thing in common: They know how to promote themselves. This is a trend that is not going to go away.
5. ELIMINATE DISTRACTIONS
If you're working in one of those offices that is constantly hindering your time with unnecessary functions, meetings, and activities, you're costing yourself a fortune in wasted time.
6. GET A BUDGET
The first thing to decide when you sit down to write out your budget is how much money you're willing to spend on company affiliation. Remember when you pay a percentage of your commissions to affiliate with a company, the better you are, the more you're going to pay. Do what's good for business.

I lost one of my best friends, my mom 16 years ago, she died the end of May in 1992.
She was one of the first people I would call when something good or bad happened to me.
A lot of water under the bridge in 16 years. I would hope that she would be proud of me.
I learned a lot from my mom. Not just the everyday stuff. She knew people well.
She was kind, knew how to talk to anyone. She had a great sense of humor. She had a great temper.
I got some of her traits, missed on the temper.
The first year after she died was painful. I would reach for the phone to call her then hang up.
The first birthday of mine without her call, the first Christmas (Every Holiday) you still think about her when shopping for gifts.
Her first birthday not here and the first Mother's day. You made it! You cried some, I hope you laughed some too, thinking about her, telling stories. She would want that.
I will not tell you it gets easier. It does get different, softer somehow as the happy memories seem to stay more than the sad ones.
I started a tradition after my mother died, I have my sister and brothers over with their families for dinner on Mother's day. One of my brothers stopped coming a couple of years ago and my other brother and his family didn't make it this year. More sad thoughts, sorry.
This is about you who lost your mom this year. Your mom was a gift, for as long as you had her. There will always be a part of her in you. Don't feel guilty if you weren't always the perfect child. I wasn't, just ask my sister :). Parents and children are all human.
She knew you loved her. Mother's always know more than anyone about us.
Tuscany Village is located in Henderson NV, just miles from the Las Vegas strip and a few minutes from the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. It is a guard gated, master planned golf community with a Mediterranean theme. It has beautiful views of the mountains and the strip.
The Tuscany Golf Club is in the center of this community and was named Golf magazine's #1 golf course in Las Vegas. It was designed by golf-course architect, Ted Robinson, Jr.
Amenities include a 35,000 square foot recreation center equipped with a large fitness center, a billiard room, lounge areas, meeting rooms, racquetball courts, tennis courts, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, hot tubs and a beautiful outdoor pool. Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take pictures of the recreation center, so you will have to take my word for it, it was unbelievable!
There are seven communities with 22 models and more than 33 floor plans. Rhodes Homes has a single family detached home with prices starting as low as $199,875. For buyers who want to be on the golf course, there are lots to choose from on the golf course.
As I was previewing these beautiful homes for some out of town buyers, my husband was busy taking pictures of this beautiful development. The sales agent at the new home site informed me that many relocating buyers are making their home in Tuscany, including Canadian home buyers. I hope you enjoy a mini tour of this exceptional golf community in the Las Vegas valley!
Always bring a real estate agent to represent you when going to a new home development. Your agent must accompany you, on your first visit to the new home site, in order for you to be represented.

One of the most affected areas in the mortgage industry has been home equity loans. The shrinkage began last year with the closure of the many Alt A second mortgage companies. We saw companies like CIT, Chapel Funding, Greenpoint Mortgage, and the likes of many others close their doors to home equity lending. This was obviously the beginning of a trend that would continue into this year with more closures and tighter home equity guidelines.
Home equity lending as we know it today is rapidly changing and evolving to stay consistent with current levels of risk in today's market. It began earlier in the year when I began receiving calls from clients of mine inquiring why their home equity lines of credit had been frozen by the bank. After some investigation I found that the lenders were re-evaluating their portfolios of loans and checking home values to see if there had been a moderate to steep decline in value since the loan was put in place.
In an industry that continues to take huge write downs of losses, the freezing of lines is a way of managing risk in a portfolio that is already under-performing. We have seen LTV's reduced to 75% from what was 100% at one time. After reading over the weekend in an industry trade magazine, I'm convinced that lenders will continue to reduce LTV's and increase credit score requirements in the future. In short, the home equity lenders will only be making loans to homeowners that have a superior equity position and stellar credit. Everything else is an unnecessary risk!
And what about the consumer? If you have a home project coming up and/or you think you will be using your home equity loan in the near future, you may think seriously about drawing from that line sooner rather than later. I've seen lenders like WaMu, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and Chase all doing this. The home equity business right now is a losing proposition and will continue to be an eye sore on balance sheets in the foreseeable future.
I am very excited about my business and am working diligently to inform the public.
There are 35,000 pesticides containing 600 chemical compounds. Yet municipal water systems are only required to test for six. Many of these chemicals are known to cause birth defects, nerve damage, sterility and cancer.
The General Accounting Office reports that 20% of the nation's 65,000 community systems are unable to meet minimum standards set by the Safe Drinking Water Act.
More than 700 organic chemicals have been identified in drinking water, and some of them are suspected cancer causing agents.
A recent government study found that more than 25% of all large U.S. public water systems contain traces of one or more toxic substances. ... Public water systems do not test for the carcinogens and other dangerous chemicals that are being found. We believe that the general consumer has not been properly educated about our water supply. We want you to be informed so that you can make the proper choices when it comes to you, your family and your friends. If you have any questions or comments please call us today!
