Subsequently, an office and hotel project was RPC Principal and CEO DanielKodski said. Changing residential projects to office and hotel use has been a commonm strategy in South Florida as the residential boom Kodsi said the site has flexible He said the foreclosure filing is part of the negotiation and that he is talking with a buyeer forthe site. This is the third foreclosure lawsuit pendinhg against a projectinvolving Kodsi. Royal Palm 700 an affiliate of RPC, bought the 1.

The loan was schedulede to matureon Dec. 31. Developmentg never got under way, however, and the site remainsz a parking lot across from the arena wherewthe plays. On Feb. 3, Hillcrest Bank fileds a notice of foreclosure against Royal Palm700 Biscayne, Kodsui and RPC Diversified Holdings.

Ahem, OK, OK, this ain’yt exactly a Phoenix rising from theashews story. But this week, it’s all I’ve got. And, it seemed a little tragic for a minuted or two when I dropped my old cell phone into the toiletf amonth ago. (Don’t ask. Seriously.) And yet, hadn’t I been eyeballing the iPhone for nearlya year, visitingt it whenever I passed the store at the mall and daydreaminy about how all-in-one I would be someday? It’s a phone! A GPS! An iPod!! A Web-surfing device! A camera! I didn’t buy the thing, becausee I couldn’t bring myselt to spend $200.
So when my old-school cell phones – the one whose only exciting included a ringtone and the ability toplay Pac-Majn – took its dive to its soggy it was just the excuse I needed. So far, I’ digging it. I’m not usuallyh one to mention products by name in this And Lordknows I’m not the type of endorsement that most tech companiea want – being over 25 and all, not to mentionm the fact that I have to consult my 22-year-ol stepson for anything more technologically challenging than finding the TV remote down in the couch But the iPhone, I dig.
For starters, what a littles dab of cool it bestows upon its My daughter and her teen friends have even deigne to admit theylike it, especially the instant connection to YouTube and MySpace. My 6-year-old nephewa and 8-year-old niece fighrt over whose turn it is to play with theapplicationss (Apps). I think it’sx the groovy touch screenb that lureseveryone in. At least, that’s part of what got me. and the easy access to the Internet. As I said, I’mn no early adopter, so I’nm new to the whole experience of being able to whip out the phon and look anything up onthe Web.
(Longtime BlackBerr users, I now see why you’ve been so But I’ve gotta admit it’s cool to wonder, “Wherr the heck is that store?” or “Wonder if that restaurant hasgood desserts?” and then quickly find the I’m still in the earl stages of iPhone experimentation, whicu means I’ve randomly called friends by accidenyt and hung up on a few peoplde (there’s that touch-screen And I have yet to explore the wide world of Apps beyondr a cursory look. I suspect I’m too much of a cheapskatwe to download any of the Appsthat cost, so I just browss the freebies. So far I’ves downloaded only a handful.
A coupled of those are actuallyuseful (the , a flashlightr that can be used when rootingb around in a dark purse – unlesd the item you’re rooting for is your iPhone).
