With well under 800 single family homes, 210 condos and 130 one to four unit multifamily homes and interest rates dropping nearly 2 percent since the highest numbers of October 2022, the market is red hot and demand for housing is back. Lines at open houses and bid wars are something we will see in these early winter months. Let’s take a look at the players in this market, who wins, and how I suggest they leverage their positions best. First time home buyers. It’s far from possible to scroll through Instagram or Facebook without seeing reels, posts and ‘lives’ discussing the new RI Housing fi

It seems like video Game adaptations are all the rage these days, as a new report has suggested that a Tomb Raider television series is in the works over at Amazon, with Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge set to write the scripts. However, despite playing a leading role in Fleabag, it's reported that Waller-Bridge will not be playing the role of Lara Croft in the show herself. All of this is according to The Hollywood Reporter, which claims the series is currently in the development stages and is the latest project to come from Waller-Bridge's renewed contract with the streaming giant. Waller-Bridge is also set to executive produce alongside former head of comedy and drama Ryan Andolina and former head of overall deals Amanda Greenblatt. We don't have a potential release date for the show, although it's likely far off considering it's still in the development stages.

Dungeons & Dragons publisher Wizards of the Coast is still soliciting feedback from the community regarding its proposed changes to the Open Gaming License. When OLG 1.1 sent the community into an uproar over 25 percent royalty and the requirement for creators to relinquish all control of their creations, Wizards went back to the drawing board and came back with OGL 1.2. It was certainly an improvement, but survey feedback revealed there’s still much to be desired. According to Wizards, over 10,000 people have responded to the OGL 1.2 survey. "So far, survey responses have made it clear that this draft of OGL 1.2 hasn't hit the mark for our community," Wizards wrote. "Please continue to share your thoughts."

On March 27, 2004, the New Jersey Nets allowed a 19-year-old LeBron James to score a then-career high 41 points on them in the 69th game of his career, when he was a rookie with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Nets were obviously disappointed with the three-point defeat and the performance that led to it, but they can now take some measure of solace in the fact that James, 19 years later, has now done that against every single team in the NBA. On Tuesday, James dropped 46 point s on the Los Angeles Clippers, who were the final team on his 40- point bucket list. In the 1,404th Game of his career, he has now score d at least 40 against all 30 NBA teams . It was fitting to see the performance come against the Clippers, as they had held James to just 24.1 point s per Game in his career, which was tied for the lowest mark of any team. That honor now belongs to the Detroit Pistons alone thanks to Tuesday's explosio

According to a study, in a scene right out of “The Twilight Zone,” a team of NASA researchers conducting an experiment in Antarctica have discovered evidence of a parallel world with physics that is completely opposite to our own.   A cosmic ray detection experiment has discovered particles that may be from a parallel universe that also emerged from the Big Bang, according to the Daily Star. The idea of a parallel universe has been around since the early 1960s, largely in the imaginations of fans of sci-fi TV series and comics. NASA’s Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna, or ANITA, was transported by a massive balloon far above Antarctica, where the freezing, dry air offered the ideal setting with little to no radio noise to skew the results.   From space, there is a continuous “wind” of high-energy particles that come to Earth. The paper claims that whereas higher-energy particles are blocked by the solid substance of our planet, low-energy, subatomic neutrinos with a

According to a NASA official, human s will be able to live and work on the Moon by the year 2030.   “We’re going to be sending people down to the surface and they’re going to be living on that surface and doing Science ,” said Howard Hu, who leads the Orion lunar spacecraft program for NASA, the BBC reported Sunday The Orion spacecraft was successfully launched by NASA’s powerful new Space Launch System, or SLS, rocket last week, and is now Travel ing in the direction of the Moon.   The launch, which was frequently postponed, began NASA’s Artemis missions, marking the first significant step toward sending people back to the Moon in 50 years. This time, Orion is unmanned in order to test its capability to deliver a capsule to the Moon and back. The astronauts are anticipated to go with it the following time when it orbits the celestial body.   If all goes according to plan, the same spacecraft might subsequently be used to land people, including the first female astro

More than a dozen high schools in northern Virginia have reported delays in notifying students of prestigious National Merit recognition. More than a dozen high schools in northern Virginia have reported delays in notifying students of prestigious National Merit recognition, as state officials investigate the growing controversy. The issue came to light last month, when several parents accused Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Fairfax County of not telling students they had received National Merit recognition to avoid upsetting others who had not. Parents picket about the merit controversy in Fairfax County, Virginia, on Jan. 14, 2023. WJLA School officials said they believed the delay was "a unique situation due to human error" and are investigating why notifications did not go out "in a timely manner" to those designated as commended students by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.

From heartbreak queen Taylor Swift, to Justin Timberlake’s post-Britney Cry Me a River, the art of the breakup song is a well-known trope. Over the weekend, Miley Cyrus and Shakira shared their own versions. But it’s not only celebrities who are grappling with public breakups today, with social media giving everyone the ability to divulge the details of a split if they wish. So how do we know when, what, and how much to share after a breakup? Nicole Colantoni, a relationship coach based in Sydney, has worked with influencers to craft breakup announcements. “Don’t overshare, don’t publicly shame, and don’t disrespect your ex,” she says. Cyrus’ new single, Flowers, has led many fans to suspect the track is about her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. The couple began dating in 2010, and married in December 2018, before splitting less than a year later. Fans have pointed out that Flowers bears a striking resemblance, both tonally and lyrically, to Bruno Mars’ When I Was Your Man. Cyr

Tottenham looked well short of Champions league standard in their north London derby defeat to Arsenal, but they have proved the doubters wrong before. Antonio Conte got a tune out of his Spurs side this time last year to guide them into the top four, although it’s looking like it will be a lot tougher to repeat that trick this time around. Still, never count Conte out, and Tottenham are still very much involved in the fight to qualify for the 2023/24 Champions League. How can Tottenham qualify for the Champions League? Tottenham currently sit fifth in the Premier League , which probably sounds a lot more positive than it currently is. They are five points short of Newcastle and Manchester United, who currently occupy the final two Champions League spots in the Premier League table. To make matters worse, Man Utd have a Game in hand over Spurs too. Meanwhile, Newcastle will have an advantage too in that they are not also juggling a current European campaign. While Man Utd and Tottenha

The EU plans to object to the merger between Microsoft and Activision Blizzard, according to a new report, which may throw yet another wrench into the proposed $70 billion deal. Sources within the European Commission told Reuters that the governing body will issue a "statement of objections" within the coming days that will outline issues the EU has with Activision and Microsoft merging. These objections will then have to be addressed by Microsoft prior to April 11, which is when the Commission plans to issue its final decision on whether the merger can proceed.
