Most of you reading this may not know me. I was back here a lot in 2007/2008.
I may not participate much, though I wish I could, but I do get the ActiveRain newsletter and usually I get it on my phone between appointments---as I guess many of the agents like me do.
I have just one bit of advice: If you make the newsletter, and if your post is a Member's Only post, please consider that all of us on our phones may want to read your post but logging in to read a Member's Only post is quite tedious while "out and about." So, if you make the newsletter and want your post read PLEASE CONSIDER MAKING YOUR POST NOT "MEMBER'S ONLY" FOR THE DAY OF THE NEWSLETTER.
Many times I logout or go to the next post that may not be locked down.
Just some insight.

 Sam Callahan, the son of a Realtor (and my friend & Active Rain member) in Silicon Valley, is 14 years old and has cancer which is not responding to two different types of chemotherapy. His cancer, Ewing's Sarcoma, had metasticized before it was discovered on September 22nd.
Sam writes about his battle with Ewing's Sarcoma on the Sam's Team website: http://www.samsteam.org/About_Sam.html He is an amazing 8th grader with a good attitude who wants to beat this thing. If you read his "about Sam" page, you'll find he's a great writer, too.
Normally, we can feel very helpless to "do anything" besides offer our compassion, thoughts and prayers.
But this time, there IS something you can do, and it only takes a couple of minutes. It may not change how he feels after radiation or chemo, but it will lift his spirits and those of his family and friends to see an outpouring of support. And it will help Sam and his family to make a little goal they've set up for themselves.
In addition to the website, Sam's family & friends have a "fan page" on Facebook. It's called I'm On Sam's Team. Their modest goal is to have 5000 fans by St. Patrick's Day. I'd like to help them get there. As of this moment, they have 2608 fans. They want people to know about Ewing's Sarcoma and they want people to know about Sam and his battle with this cancer.
What To Do: So, my Active Rain friends, I know a lot of you are on Facebook. If not, this might be the right time to join!
- Please take a moment and log into Facebook.
- Go to the Search bar and key in I'm On Sam's Team or use this link once you're logged in:
http://www.facebook.com/#!/group.php?gid=261410896243&ref=ts
- At the very top, in the middle, there's a button which says Join Group - click on it
That's it. How easy it is to send some support and encouragement! Of course, read through the website and the FB page too! But it only takes a minute to "fan" a page.
Just to reiterate, Sam is someone I know, it's not one of those fake internet hoaxes and he's part of the real estate family (his dad's a Realtor). Join us on Sam's Team! Please re-blog!
Miami brings out the tramp in EVERYBODY. There was no talk of Twitter, or transparency or #REBCMIAMI.
It was all about OSCAR. Look at the twinkle in her eye.
Referring to someones blog post as a "blog," is not correct.
The blog is the medium--much like a magazine. You wouldn't say to Ann Coulter, "nice TV." You'd say "nice TV interview, Ann."
So complimenting or referring to an author's blog post as a "blog" isn't correct. Blog is the complete body of work. A blog POST is an individual post or article.
Venetian Islands: Belle, Rivo Alto, Di Lido, San Marino, San Marco, and Biscayne Islands.
The six man-made islands are located in Biscayne Bay between Miami Beach/South Beach and the mainland of Miami. They are linked by the Venetian Causeway constructed in the 1920's.

The "Venetians" are the closest single family residential neighborhood to South Beach. The Venetians were profiled in March, 2008 in the New York Times.
The majority of the development on the islands was between the 1930's and 1950's. The lure of the islands are their close proximity to South Beach, and, of course, their stunning waterfront views.
Prices for non-waterfront homes begin at $600,000; and waterfront homes, $1,900,000. The average lot sq. ft. is 10,500 with 60 linear feet of water frontage.
