iPad3 the POSTER CHILD OF THE POST PC WORLD says Tim Cook from Apple iPad3 BORN March 16, 2012 So what is it that makes us pay for a new toy device every so often - or in Apple's case every so frequently?

What if you had many telephone calls about the same subject with a contractor at a listing?What if his staff told him it was finished but he hadn't gone to check it out? Maybe a video would nudge the contractor to finish the work. The video was taken with a Motorola Droid3 and then uploaded to a YouTube account.

Statistics Always Accurate or Sometimes DistortedAtlanta Metro ODAT Realty CDPE Advanced Buy Lease Sell Market Data Buckhead Atlanta GA Reading the S&P/Case-Shiller report for December 27, 2012, one would think that a major crisis caused a terrible situation in Atlanta's housing prices. In my opinion, the data are a direct result of Lenders DUMPING a large number of very low-priced Foreclosed properties all at once onto the Atlanta Metro market. These properties were clumped inside the pipeline and then spilled out in a dramatic swoop. So, what looks like some disaster is the direct result of deliberate timing and dumping. We … (6 comments)
