Wise Property Investors ‘Keep the End in Mind’, Tells Rick Otton

Share Article

As analysts debate the future of Australian real estate, renowned property coach, Rick Otton, reminds people that success in this business is not dependent on market conditions. Rather it is dependent on using the proper investment strategies to achieve long-term goals.

Rick Otton Shares Seller Finance Strategies During His Property Training Event

...many Aussies get into property investment out of the fear of being left out, that’s why they always forget to create an exit strategy in case things don’t turn out as planned.

Last February, overall growth for home buyer and investor loans slowed down by 0.7 percent and 1.1 percent, respectively, Business Spectator reported on 9 April 2014.

Industry analysts are currently debating if the slowdown is a transition into a more sustainable pace of growth, or marks that investor demand for Australian real estate is already exhausted.

“There’s been a lot of talk about lately about the slowdown of the Australian real estate market. But if you’ve done your homework before entering the market, you won’t have to worry about negative news like this. Unfortunately, many Aussies get into property investment out of the fear of being left out, that’s why they always forget to create an exit strategy in case things don’t turn out as planned,” according to Rick Otton, owner and director of We Buy Houses.

“Remember than when you enter the property ladder you have to start with the end in mind, and to do that you have to link in your happiness and well-being where you want to go. Property investors must always ask themselves 2 things: what is the game plan and what are you going to get out of it? To achieve these goals, people need the proper toolkits, otherwise it’s just a dream,” he added.

Mr. Otton then revealed in a new interview for his Power Property Profits Pack that creative real estate strategies are the best toolkits available for property investors hoping to enter the property market while house prices are rising.

“If you want to buy a house, but you don’t have enough money to follow the usual process, you can buddy up with somebody else who has the cash but doesn’t have the right toolset to make it grow. The person who brings the money to the table gets a pretty high percentage of profits in the relationship, while the person who does the running around gets the experience and knowledge to make their next transactions more successful,” he explained.

For more information on seller finance strategies, visit http://creativerealestate.com.au/freepack/ to get a copy of Rick Otton’s Power Property Profits Pack.

About Rick Otton

Australian property investment specialist, Rick Otton, has been developing, sharing and teaching his innovative real estate strategies for 23 years. As the founder and CEO of We Buy Houses, which operates in the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand he is known for introducing cutting-edge techniques that have enabled previously disenfranchised people to get out of the rental cycle and into their own homes.

His innovative low-risk, high-reward approach to Australian real estate investing has been featured in a variety of television programs and magazines, including Today Tonight, Hot Property and Australian Property Investor. His real estate book, published in 2012, ‘’How To Buy A House For A Dollar’, voted by Money Magazine and Dymocks Book stores as one of the Top 10 Most Popular Finance Titles for 2013.

As well as conducting free seminars, workshops and conferences in the UK and Australia, Mr Otton releases a weekly podcast on iTunes, Creative Real Estate. In these he shares examples of real transactions, and you can listen to his students share their own experiences using his strategies.

    I sympathise with anyone who has died like this and their family, but some of the gushing commentary on his death, yours included, is a little over the top.

  2. #32
    natepig I understand. Some people think that we are going over the top. But for me, and many others, he wasn't simply the invented of our favorite devices, rather tha man who inspired us to do things differently.

    I wasn't a big fan of Steve earlier but after watching his Stanford Speech, I was truly amazed by the brilliance that was Steve Jobs.

    I hope you don't mind.

    Here is what Bill Gates had to say about Jobs death (Just thought I should share it with you).

    I agree, saying someone is a "god" because of his works on technology is a bit too much. But there is no doubt about him being one of the greatest entrepreneurs in this era of time.

    I was personally not a fan, but all differences aside ... iSteve lifted the brand to heights that forced the industry to think a lil different and the result today are great cellphones. A lot of people will miss him greatly and other not, but nonetheless RIP Steve.

    He changed a lot of thing in our community. That's why most people will put this WAY over the top, but the things he did are to be respected. R.I.P. Steve.

    Not at all mate, I watched the Stanford Speech today and found it inspiring as well. I just find it strange that people elevate him to more than just what he was, a great talent in the design of computers, mp3 players, and high end phones. Don't get me wrong though I totally get what this guy was in work and privately as well, he was a first rate guy.

    Do you mean the computing community or the community as a whole?

    Oh, that's why you people got worked up. It wasn't a reference to HIM as a person being God. Rather, being the God as in creator of all 'i' products. Hope there's no further confusion.

Universal Gets God Of War Movie Rights

Universal Pictures has secured the movie rights to Sony's hit video game, God of War. Mosaic Media Group's Charles Roven and Alex Gartner will produce the feature adaptation. As yet, no writer or director has been assigned to the project.

This doesn't necessarily mean a God of War film will ever come out, but it does get the ball rolling. Considering how cinematic the game is, however, it'll be interesting to see how the big screen version tries to eclipse the game.

PS2 Game Reviews: Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam Review

Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam Review

More Game Info (Print This Article)

Replay Value:

Overall Rating:       5.5

Online Gameplay:

Not Rated

Number Of Players:

It has been awhile since Bandai has rolled out a Gundam title, but even though a few years have passed, not much has changed. Developed by Capcom, and produced by Bandai, Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam has a ton of unlockables, all the characters and mobile suits from the series, but little has been done with regards to advancing the visuals and the gameplay. If you're a hardcore fan, (you know who you are) the game is worth a look. Casual gamers won't find much value in the plentiful extras, and will likely tire quickly of the simple and repetitive gameplay.

The game's story is set seven years after the One Year War. The Earth Federation, which won the war, has become corrupt, and its Titans police force has become a dictatorship. Now, the Anti-Earth Union Group and the formerly villainous Axis coalition find themselves on the same side in this new conflict. At the center of it all is a new hero, Kamille Bidan, who is the pilot of the mysterious transforming Gundam known as Zeta Gundam.

Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam's biggest strength is its large number of suits and missions. With 55 mobile suits, over 200 missions, and a plethora of unlockable content, it takes a very long time to say you've beaten the game. In reality, many of the missions are the same, and you're literally playing a mission over several times, but from the perspective of another character. Most of the gameplay is found in the Universal Century mode. Here you can play as the A.E.U.G, Titans, Federation, or Zeon, and you can re-live events from the series. Unfortunately, there's not a whole lot of variety to the missions, and the stories aren't fleshed out enough for anyone new to the series to understand. If a quick fight is all you're looking for, the vs. or arcade modes will fit the bill. Up to four people can play the game at once, but the framerate just doesn't hold up enough to make it playable.

Generally when you think giant robot games, or games with giant robot suits, you think in-depth gameplay and a steep learning curve. That is not the case with Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam. The controls and combat are very simple, and are reminiscent of War of the Monsters or any other simple fighting game. You can select from a couple of different weapons, but in combat they are almost useless. It's possible to hit a non-moving target, but once they start moving around, trying to hit them is an exercise in futility. This leaves the plasma sword and running up to the enemy and smashing a button as the main way in which to attack. Needless to say this gets old very quickly.

The game is severely hampered by a terrible camera that can't be adjusted. The right analog stick performs no function, so it's odd that the developers chose to forgo giving the player at least some control of the camera. Locking on to enemies is the only way to get the camera to move, but even that doesn't help much with enemies that are off screen, especially in the levels that take place in space. It's frustrating, and there's no rhyme or reason for the camera being this problematic.

The character models that Bandai released to promote Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam looked nice, but they are nowhere to be found in the actual game. The models are poorly textured, and their lack of detail is obvious when you examine them in the gallery area. The levels are bland, sparsely populated, and again, poorly textured. Some buildings can be destroyed, but they don't show damage - they just sink into the ground in a small cloud of dust. There aren't many flashy explosions, no thick smoke, and no giant displays of sparks lighting the screen when these huge behemoths clash; it's rather underwhelming.

Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam's music is faithful to the series, but it's an acquired taste. If you love what you have hear in the anime, then you'll be happy; but if you're a newcomer, it might take awhile to get used to. There is a small amount of voice acting, but it doesn't add a whole lot to the story. It's similar to the banter you hear before and during battle in the Starfox games, which means it's pretty worthless.

Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam is not a horrible game, but it's designed for an incredibly niche audience, and its gameplay and graphics are so out of date that there's no compelling reason for anyone else to give it a shot. If the story mode was deeper and gave some background as to just what is going on, then perhaps it would be worth a look; but that didn't happen. If you're a fan of the series, Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam gives you just what you want. Everyone else should stay away.

Habit Control through Hypnosis, South Melbourne

quit smoking, alcohol, nail biting

BE CERTAIN, we all have habits. Without them we could not live, life would be overwhelming. Not all habits are constructive and helpful, sometimes bad habits emerge that were once helpful and positive. However over time a good habit can pass its used by date and persist as a negative influence on your life.

We work with you to learn about your habits. We help you to understand the timeline of the habit and to experientially understand what happens before, during and after the habit behavior. Armed with these skills, in time you will manage to evaluate your own habit, and empower yourself to learn more adaptive habits for your current life situation.

Hypnotherapy is especially helpful for working with your habits, to experience managing urges, to reinforce new, more constructive and adaptive habits and to give you the choice of what habits you wish to include in your future.

Schools score better this year

The 2010 Academic Performance Index scores and rankings for four of the schools in the Shoreline Unified School District are now available for viewing by the public. According to the index, which uses annual standardized testing results to tracks California schools’ academic performance, West Marin Elementary and Tomales Elementary both had index scores above 800, which is considered the benchmark goal for all schools. Bodega had a score of 737, which was a significant drop from its previous year’s score of 816. Though Tomales High had a score below 800 (762), it improved significantly on its previous year’s score of 721. The index also ranks schools along two parameters, comparing each school to statewide performance averages, and comparing them to schools of similar size and student demographic. When compared with other similar schools, Tomales High was ranked 9 (10 being the highest and most desired rank), Tomales Elementary was ranked 8, and West Marin Elementary was ranked 7. Inverness Elementary was not evaluated by the index.

Mr. Denis MacShane (Rotherham): Before the Prime Minister launches a war of bull semen against Europe, will he answer one simple question? Given the market signals from the United States, which banned British beef in 1987, from Westminster council, which stopped serving it in its schools a couple of years ago, and from Hong Kong, which banned British beef about two years ago, what retaliation does he propose to take against them?

The Prime Minister: The hon. Gentleman should not sneer at an important industry.

Mr. MacShane: I was not sneering.

The Prime Minister: At the beginning of his question, he was sneering at an important industry. There is no doubt that he was sneering. People will have noticed that he was doing so, and they will have noticed many Labour Members' attitude on this issue.

We are seeking to have the ban lifted everywhere. We will be in discussion with Hong Kong, America, New Zealand, Australia and other countries that have previously banned British beef or beef derivative products. That is the reason why we are trying to deal comprehensively domestically with cases of BSE--so that there can be no credible shred of justification anywhere in the world for the ban on British beef.

Mr. Bernard Jenkin (Colchester, North): I congratulate my right hon. Friend on his measured but forceful statement, and assure him that it will be welcomed by butchers, farmers and meat traders across my constituency. May I ask him to acknowledge that he is starting down a road of forceful but restrained escalation, and that, until there is a happy resolution to this matter, there can be no turning back?

The Prime Minister: My hon. Friend is quite right. I did not lightly embark upon this course, and I am perfectly aware that we must proceed with this course until we have a satisfactory outcome.

21 May 1996 : Column 113

Agriculture Council

4.22 pm

The Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Mr. Douglas Hogg): With permission, I should like to make a statement on the discussion about BSE at and in the margins of the Agriculture Council on 20 and 21 May, at which I represented the United Kingdom with my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State for Wales, and my noble Friends the Under-Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Office and the Under-Secretary of State for Scotland.

The standing veterinary committee voted late last night on a proposal that could have been expected, in due course, to bring about the lifting of the ban on gelatine, tallow and semen. However, a qualified majority was not established. Forty-eight votes--representing eight member states, including the United Kingdom--voted in favour, and 39 votes, representing seven member states, voted against.

This morning, the Commissioner informed the Council that the Commission would put the proposal to the Council. A special meeting of the Council to consider that and other matters will be held on 3 and 4 June. Under the procedures, the proposal will then be implemented, unless there is a simple majority against it in the Council.

As my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister has explained, it is extremely disappointing that no final decision has been taken on lifting the ban on those three products, for which the scientific case is overwhelming. The Council meeting fixed for 3 and 4 June provides a further opportunity, which should be taken.

I also explained to the Council the comprehensive nature of the measures that the United Kingdom has put in place to protect the public and to eliminate BSE. On the idea of a selective cull, I confirmed that the United Kingdom was in principle prepared to cull all animals in the three age classes 1990-91, 1991-92 and 1992-93, identified by farm of origin, in respect of which a case of BSE had been found. I made it clear, however, that such a proposal would need the consent of the House, and that the opinion of right hon. and hon. Members would be influenced by what was said and done in Brussels and elsewhere in Europe. I have seen no evidence to justify going beyond the proposal that we have advanced.

The Government's first duty is to protect the public. We have put the necessary measures in place, as is confirmed by any unprejudiced and careful reading of the scientific evidence. Member states should now accept their responsibilities, and agree to a rapid ending of the ban.

Dr. Gavin Strang (Edinburgh, East): May Ireiterate that we fully share the Government's bitter disappointment at the failure of the standing veterinary committee even to agree to the modest proposal for the lifting of the ban on tallow, gelatine and semen?

Does the Minister feel that the confusion surrounding the implementation of the 30-month slaughter programme contributed to his lack of progress? May I remind him that it is seven weeks since he took that programme to the Council of Agriculture Ministers in Luxembourg? Is it not clear that there is still great confusion throughout the industry about its implementation? Indeed, divisions are developing between different sections of the industry.

21 May 1996 : Column 114

Is it not time to consider whether some new initiatives are required in relation to the programme if it is to operate effectively?

May I put to the Minister the allegation that some abattoirs are refusing to take cattle aged over 30 months, thus forcing farmers to sell them in markets where the abattoir owners or their agents are able to buy the cattle at knockdown prices and make a profit at the expense of farmer and taxpayer? Is the Minister still certain that he is right in requiring that cattle for our food and cattle aged over 30 months that must be slaughtered and kept out of the food chain be slaughtered in the same slaughterhouses?

As for the additional selective slaughter programme--the programme that still involved 40,000 cattle at the time of last Thursday's debate; the Minister upped the figure to 80,000 on Friday--can the Minister explain clearly what is the proposal's current status? Is he saying that we will not go ahead with the second slaughter programme until we have a clear agreement on a timetable for the lifting of the overall ban on our beef and beef products?

The Prime Minister accused my right hon. Friend the Leader of the Opposition--most unfairly--of not making constructive suggestions. May I ask the Minister what progress has been made on three of our constructive suggestions? First, what progress is being made on the quality assurance scheme for late-maturing cattle, and will the Government extend such schemes to other beef breeds?

Secondly, has the Minister had a chance further to consider our call for an investigation into the 67 per cent. of BSE cases that are now in cattle born after the feed bans were implemented? He has acknowledged that after those bans were put in place in 1989 cattle have consumed a continuous stream of contaminated feed. Surely it would help the introduction of an additional slaughter programme if we were to identify the cattle most at risk. If we were to carry out an inquiry, it might help us to have a more closely targeted selective slaughter programme.

Thirdly, with regard to the proposal made by my right hon. Friend the Member for Sedgefield (Mr. Blair) a few minutes ago, will the Minister seriously consider the proposition that many people in countries such as Germany may not fully understand the measures that have been put in place in this country and that we should seek to address that by directly communicating to them--through people who speak their language in the media or in a clear booklet--what we are doing in the United Kingdom? We argue that proposition on the basis that there has been a return of confidence--not complete, but substantial--in the market in British beef, and that may partly be because the people understand that the Government are taking measures following the announcement on 20 March.

The Government are right to emphasise the importance of lifting the ban on our export of beef and beef products, because only then can we start to rebuild our markets. But that must not deflect the Minister from the priorities at home, including ensuring that all the measures to keep the BSE agent out of our food are effectively enforced and addressing the huge problems surrounding the slaughter programme, which are causing such suffering among farmers and others in the industry.

Mr. Hogg: I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for his support. In following the policy of slaughtering cattle over

21 May 1996 : Column 115

the age of 30 months, to date about 38,500 beasts have been slaughtered. The standing veterinary committee did not focus to any great extent on that slaughter policy. My judgment is that the objections that have been advanced in the standing veterinary committee and elsewhere are primarily political in character, although scientific language is used as a cover for a political stance.

Further to the question of the slaughter policy, we are now operating very close to current capacity. We can increase capacity, as we discussed last week, by bringing on cold storage and additional incineration. The choke point is essentially the rendering capacity. The hon. Member for Edinburgh, East (Dr. Strang) mentioned specific allegations about behaviour bordering on misconduct, if not misconduct. If there are such cases, I hope that they will be brought to my attention.

My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister explained the position on additional slaughter, but perhaps I should repeat it. We are focusing on three class years, 1990-91, 1991-92 and 1992-93. If--in any of those class years--there has been a case or there is a case of BSE, we will go back to the farm of origin and find and slaughter the cohort. It is the future cases that I have introduced into the discussion in Europe.

The hon. Member for Edinburgh, East asked about the context in which the selective slaughter policy has been introduced. I have already made it plain to the Council in Brussels and to the Commission too that the proposals for a selective cull have to be considered in the context of programmes for relaxing the ban. Indeed, I said today at the Council that to secure a selective cull policy I would have to have the consent of the House of Commons. In truth, the House's opinion will be directly influenced by what is said and done in Europe, and I made that very clear to the Council today.

We completed consultation on the quality assurance scheme at the end of last week. We have now raised it with the Commission and the Commissioner himself specifically mentioned it to the Council this morning.

The hon. Gentleman will remember that last Thursday we discussed cattle born after the ban. The relevant figures are to be found in the dossiers that we have lodged with the Library. He will bear it in mind that, from the beginning of April, we placed a total prohibition on the incorporation of any mammalian protein in farm rations--food going to any farm animals.

Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill — Schedule 1 — Legal Aid in Clinical Negligence Cases — 31 Oct 2011 at 22:16

Charles Hendry MP, Wealden voted against making legal aid available in clinical negligence cases.

The majority of MPs voted against allowing civil legal aid to be provided in clinical negligence cases.

MPs were considering the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill[1]. The amendment rejected in this vote was:

  • Amendment 142, page 110, line 32, at end insert—
  • 19A (1) civil legal services provided in relation to Clinical Negligence.
  • (2) In this paragraph clinical negligence means breach of duty or care or trespass to the person committed in the course of the provision of clinical or medical services (including dental or nursing services)’

This would have had effect on Schedule 1 of the Bill. Had it not been rejected the proposed clause would have been added to the list of types of cases in which civil legal aid can be awarded.

MP Karl Turner, who proposed the amendment, explained its purpose during the debate saying:

  • The amendment would put clinical negligence back into the scope for legal aid.

Don't Fidget a Feather!

Erica Silverman, Author, Ridley, Illustrator, S. D. Schindler, Illustrator
Erica Silverman, Author, Ridley, Illustrator, S. D. Schindler, Illustrator Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing $16 (32p) ISBN 978-0-02-782685-2
Reviewed on: 08/29/1994
Release date: 09/01/1994
One-upmanship goes toe-to-toe (or web-to-web?) with camaraderie when Duck and Gander compete for the title of ``one and only, true and forever champion of champions.'' Duck can swim faster and Gander can fly higher, but a freeze-in-place contest (``Don't move. Don't talk. Don't fidget a feather'') will settle the matter once and for all. Silverman (Big Pumpkin) deploys lighthearted repetitions (``Duck did not move a muscle. She did not quack a quack. She did not fidget one feather'') to portray Duck and Gander holding firm against playful rabbits, curious crows and even a gust of wind. When a hungry fox hoists the motionless Gander into a boiling stew, however, friendship prevails, and Duck leaps forward to save the day. Dappled illustrations suggest filtered sunlight and bucolic countryside, while Fox arrives in a flourish of russet. Duck and Gander, with their comic expressions, are an endearing pair, and Schindler (Great-aunt Ida and Her Great Dane Doc) does an especially good job of reconciling the prevailing humor with the menace presented by Fox. A well-paced picture book, surefooted in both text and illustrations. Ages 4-7. (Sept.)

Mini Fridge Hell

October 6, 2009 · 12 comments

I now can say I have experienced a little taste of hell. As you all are aware, I am currently on a business trip on a very tiny island in far east Asia. I have blogged a few times about my food setbacks when I wrote about packing a lunch and how awkward eating out alone can be on business trips.

Consider those issues trivial compared to the issue I now face. There are only a handful of food options where I’m staying. There’s a burger king, subway, pizza place, one buffet style cafeteria, and a grocery store. After two weeks of whopper juniors, 12 inch subs, and medium pizzas, I’m pretty sure my stomach wants to punch me in the face.

My hotel room is equipped with a mini-fridge and a microwave. I’ve done the peanut butter and jelly thing a handful of times, but I am in need of some nutritional meals that don’t require an oven or a stove. The meals I typically make for myself, back home, all require some type of cooking.

Imagine your oven/stove broke down today and you couldn’t get it fixed for six weeks. What would you work in to your diet? I’ve flirted with the idea of making a salad, but would get pretty sick of it after about two meals. Right now my “mini fridge diet” consists of PB&J, cereal, apples, pears, oranges, and yogurt. That’s all I got. I’m freaked out by cooking things in the microwave (I feel like it makes my food toxic….crazy I know) so frozen dinners and the like aren’t really an option.

Anyone have any crazy delicious sandwich combinations that are easy and never get old? My culinary skills are quite elementary so try and keep it to recipes you would trust a 3rd grader with :) I may be a Debt Ninja, but I am in no way any kind of Chef Ninja. Oh, and keep in mind the grocery store on this island is pretty ghetto so pre-made sandwiches/salads/soups don’t exist here.

1 Anonymous

you are right about the microwave they are bad news…..really no other advice for you though everything i cook is thrown into 1 pot

2 Frugal Urbanite

You could iron a grilled cheese sandwich.

Try fruit sandwiches for variety. PB&Apple. Apple and cheese. Pear and cheese. Heck, just use fruit and add some nuts for texture and protein. Or try cucumber and cream cheese (assuming you can get a hand on it) or just about anything and cream cheese for that matter.

Salads can be interesting time after time, but you'd have to have a wide variety of veggies to choose from, and it sounds like you don't.

3 quarterlifefinances

Do you eat tuna? A tuna sandwich can be delicious! Just add a little bit of mayo to your tuna (or plain yogurt if you're watching your figure), some pepper and garlic powder, then spread it on the bread, along with a slice of cheese. YUM!

4 camorra

You pretty much describe the life of a college student. What did you eat when you had to live in a dorm?

5 Jeff

That does sound like some dorm-room style living, so I've got a few suggestions.
Try to make a salad with spinach (regular iceberg lettuce should get punched in the face)apples, walnuts and feta cheese. Add some raspberry vinaigrette and that should work for a few meals. you can always substitute for different types of fruit.
Also, spinach, tuna, crasins and walnuts will make a good salad, with a vinaigrette syle dressing.
If you HAVE to eat ramen, add some frozen corn or other veggies, it makes it taste so much better.

6 Jessie

Hey there!

Thanks for the fun money vote LoL – you were the only person to do so, and that's exactly where it went!!

(I haven't figured out out to delete peoples comments if I don't have moderation on)

I vote for throwing some cheese in to the mix!!

Is there any way you get get a single or double element 'hot plate' and one pot so that you could make something…maybe the hotel has some, you just have to ask?

7 Carrie...On The Cheap

Your mini fridge sounds pretty healthy!!

-mix yogurt, granola (or cereal, or broken granola bar), raw nuts, and chopped fruit together for a great meal.

-trail mix: raw nuts, dried fruit, seeds, chocolate chips, granola

-get yourself some raw nuts (almonds, pecans, walnuts, etc.)

-protein bars! Snickers, Kashi, Clif are all great

-Kashi cereal is very nutricious

-do you have a toaster? PB toast is one of my favs

-cheese cubes

-deli meat rolled around cheese stick is a good snack

-baby carrots!!!

Good luck!

8 Michelle @ PennyAndNickel

Ok, I know it sounds lame, but can you get your hands on a slow cooker? You could make some awesome chili, or cheesy potatoes…tons of ideas!

9 Money Funk

Try this site…all Raw Food. No need to cook :)

Click here. Bound to find something. :)

Wishing u the best of luck in finding good food to eat.

10 S

-You can buy salads at Subway.
-Hang out at local watering hole and become friends with someone who lives there and has a stove.
-Can you buy a inexpensive toaster? This way you can do some waffles or toast bread/bagels.
-Do you have a coffee maker in your room? You could pre-heat water in that and make oatmeal sans the microwave. Then you can throw in some nuts, dried fruit, etc into the oatmeal if you desire.

11 Leif Nabil

If I were you, I’d take the chance to learn about Marshallese dishes? Visit the Saturday or Sunday market (or equivalent), then ask a person who grew up there what an quick, good meal is.

Befriend a local and see if they'll cook for you

For those who weren't aware, Future of the Left formed in 2005 from the ashes of two Welsh based bands--McLusky and Jarcrew. For me, that was as much as I knew about the band until Polymers Are Forever, their latest offering and first since they recently joined Xtra Mile Records, was released.

A six-track EP which precedes a full length due out in 2012, this release displays a unique and diverse approach to music, with the whole "quiet and loud" approach being used to good effect throughout. Opening track "Polymers Are Forever" features a combination of big guitars and some basic, but effective, old school-sounding synth work. Initially coming across like a malevolent version of They Might Be Giants, it soon becomes apparent that this Cardiff-based outfit is intent on messing with both mind and ears as nothing is straightforward, as they exist in world where melody and discord are equal bedfellows.

Added to this is a weird take on the world, as featured in the lyrics, and the result is something that you'd imagine Steve Albini would be pleased to have had a hand in. Although a number of influences come through, the one that is to the foremost of my mind is the French-based band, Warehouse. The similarity might be down to that band featuring a displaced Cardiffian, Dave Alderman, whose take on music has evolved over the years from a more standard punk rock sound (Soldier Dolls), to a very much Big Black-influenced approach (Slowjam), ending up with his current project, Warehouse, which does contain many similarities to Future of the Left, coming as they do from a slightly left field position in what they're doing.

The intriguing part of the attitude towards music taken by Future of the Left is that where some bands try to be clever, often sounding contrived/forced and lacking direction, the songs on this EP come across clearly as distinct pieces of work, each separate from the other, without losing any of the intricacy each possesses. There is no sense of pushing boundaries just for the sake of it, where often the end result is messy but here everything seems to fit in neatly even when it sounds as if one part is battling intensely against another. Additionally there is something almost, worryingly, pleasant about the vocals at times, which are much at odds with some of the lyrics, where the content highlights a world full of disturbing and/or weird images ("With Apologies to Emily Pankhurst" and "New Adventures" being prime examples). There is definitely a lot going on during this release and one listen just leads to many more to help getting your head around it all.

Future of the Left is edgy and fun. Some of the lyrics here really do bring a smile to my face ("Will you share your helicopter pad with Sweden!") whilst others have the ability to make me shudder a bit (the whole of "With Apologies to Emily Pankhurst" for example), so it's good to go from one extreme to another in 20 minutes.

If you are like me, you'll probably find it mildly amusing that if you actually plug the title of the last track "destroywhitchurch.com" into your Internet search bar, you're taken to a website entitled "Save Whitchurch" (Whitchurch being a suburb of Cardiff) which is campaigning to save the existence of a school in that area. On the other hand, you might not care!

I'm now looking forward to the album, The Plot Against Common Sense.

This EP is pretty good, but not essential.

davebrave4 (November 27, 2011)

Huh I've never heard Jarcrew before, I'll have to check them out. Future of the Left is the shit though. My favorite lyric: "Slight bowel movements preceded the bloodless coup" off their last full-lenghth.

ffwoodycooks or whatever is stoked

that_band_changed_my_life (November 24, 2011)

Just bought it. I am stoked to listen.

hayman (November 22, 2011)

Mclusky were a damn good band. Everyone should check out Mclusky do Dallas. Great album.

Problematiclogic (November 22, 2011)

Near perfect.

wyld_stallyns_rule (November 22, 2011)

Haven't listened to this yet, other than a few seconds of a song clip. Sounded nothing like 'Travels', but I'm still intrigued. I have loved everything these guys and their predecessors have put out, so I'm not worried.

Haanz (November 22, 2011)

I remember Falco saying something about people thinking Travels With Myself and Another echoing mclusky do dallas, but this particular release captures mclusky's massive sounding, schizophrenic The Difference Between Me and You is that I'm Not on Fire more than it does any other Future of the Left album.

Anyway, great EP; can't wait for the full-length.

Mobile accessory of the week: OtterBox Defender Cases for iPhone

OtterBox Defender 'Punk' Case for iPhone 5 in Green

Happy Friday, folks!

After staring our 'Mobile Accessory of the Week' feature on the Pure Mobile blog last week, we're back with another great accessory review. Last week it was all about toys, with an iPhone-controlled monster truck that we'll admit is more fun than practical.

But this week, we're getting into the real essentials, with the only thing that stands between you and a busted iPhone – a good case.

One of the top picks for iPhone protection, OtterBox has mastered the balance between rugged and cool, with their Defender line of ultra-resistent but design-conscious cases for iPhone 4, 4S and 5.

OtterBox Defender Case for iPhone 5 in Pink Realtree Camo

With a three-layer design that combines hard-shell and silicone layers with a built-in screen protector, OtterBox's Defender Case gives you the best of both worlds – the durability of a hard case and the shock absorption of a soft case.

And though the Defender case acts like a bullet-proof vest for your iPhone, it certainly doesn't have to look like one. OtterBox has been clever enough to offer looks for all tastes.

There's the sporty, modern look of the 'Punk' model for iPhone 5, which features solid colors in high contrast, as well as the more feminine iPhone 5 model in Pink Realtree Camo, which is kind of like the Powerpuff Girls of iPhone 5 cases – cute and sweet but mega tough.

OtterBox Defender Case for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S in Black Realtree Camo

Sometimes, OtterBox's choice of design even goes beyond looks. The company itself has recommended their Realtree Camo Defender case for iPhone 4 and 4S as an accessory for hunters, promising "we've got the protection that withstands the punishment you endure."

Sounds pretty legit.

  • LG Fantasy - Fact or Fiction?
    Posted on January 3, 2012 by Pure Mobile

    By Megan Fleet

    January 3, 2012

    LG Fantasy - Fact or Fiction?There are those moments where no news is good news. This is generally not the case in the technology world; in particular within mobile technology market space... which is constantly evolving, improving, and innovating to keep pace with a tech savvy and tech hungry consumer base.  A market base growing at an exponential rate as unlocked cell phones becomes more and more available to consumers in India, Africa and China. Thankfully the advent of tablets and a plethora of mobile accessories such as cases, skins,  screen protectors, desktop chargers as well as  Bluetooth Headsets keep our little hands busy while awaiting the latest smartphone relases.

    With that in mind, the jury is still out on the lack of an LG Windows Phone release in the United States in 2011.... the last LG Windows Phone seen state side was the Quantum back in 2010. This handset wasn’t widely popular, perhaps because it was not available as an unlocked smartphone, instead it was tied to a carrier exclusive contract with AT&T.  Discover a massive selection of  SD Micro Memory cards.  Extend your mobile device memory to hold a huge inventory of images, songs and documents.

    Trickles of a new release for the Windows OS are tickling the imaginations of the mobile world with a device going by the moniker LG Fantasy. As with any gossip mill, speculated details are flying with scant solid evidence or manufacturer announcements to give credence and weight to the words.   Discover  XMI Speakers; uncompromised sound quality and a revolutionary design accentuating  today's interactive lifestyle.   In addition,  earpieces and headsetscombine sophisticated style and precision engineering that deliver brilliant sound for your total listening pleasure.

    LG Fantasy - Fact or Fiction?The most likely sounding is that is has a four inch IPS display and this holds more veracity thanks to the leaked image of the smartphone. This image is indeed blurry (as can be seen in the picture above), but it is pretty evident that the handset has either a 5 megapixel or 8 megapixel camera. This seemingly harmless detail gives more heft to the talk that the Fantasy will join the ranks of Windows phones because this megapixel screen is what current Windows Phone users have with the 7.5 OS (aka Mango).

    Leaving your valuable mobile devices unprotected is risky!  The latest stylish top  brand bags, sleeves and cases innovative protection solutions allow you to protect your devices from scratches and blemishes with our stylish top.  Tough on the outside, sweet on the inside these brand name protection accessories combine complete device coverage with sleek artistic expression.

    What is markedly less clear is whether this particular device will see the light of American soil for its debut, but it is likely that a launch will occur sometime in 2012. LG is smart to keep up guessing and ramping up the free PR to fill the void between its Windows Phone releases, but will be sure to keep the juiciest details for the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in February.  Checkout the latest in mobile device accessories.
