We just completed a contract with a seller on a short sale home. How long are banks taking to approve short sales in today's market. A lot of the answers I have found are from 5 years ago.

My son is playing his first year of full contact lacrosse and we need a helmet. He is 9 years old and on the small side for his age. We bought a Brine STr xs/s on ebay and it was too big. Additionally I do not want a helmet where you make final adjustments by replacing the padding. The velcro stickers do a horrible job of staying in place. I am looking for a latch system similar to his hockey helmet.

I have a one month old HP Pavilion desk top and recently upgraded to Windows8. Almost as recently the monitor sporadically flicks on and off with a simultaneous "chime". The monitor itself is a 10 year old LCD, which has no sound associated with it when turning on and off. The chime comes from the PC; like the PC is shutting the video off.
