Apparently Google is testing the waters on an 'On Air' advertising program. They are selling ads and a story in The Washington Post piqued my interest because I see a lot of Realtors® whom I respect here on AR using radio ads. Google seems to be conducting the 'ad sales' like an eBay auction. The

I recently got a listing for an elegant beauty of a building. It originated when trolley cars in Cleveland first switched from horse power of the hay eating kind, to electric power. It is not as large or intricate as the building in this photo, but still architecturally significant and full of po

Keith, I think this group is a grand idea! All of the recipes in here so far are whetting my appetite. I decided to include a recipe for a dish that can be used for Broker's Opens. I don't know about everyone else's area, but when you serve food you are more likely to get people to come see your

Have you experienced the rancor that can develop when a local government decides to exert it's powers to declare a portion of the community Blighted and use it's powers of Eminent Domain? Traditionally, State and Local governments can use Eminent Domain when there is a public purpose, something t
