This U.S. Runner Predicted Her Olympic Trip On Twitter 5 Years Ago
USA Olympic runner Morolake Akinosun might want to take up a side job as a psychic, because she apparently can predict the future. Or at least, her own.
In 2011, Akinosun was just a 17-year-old rising senior at Waubonsie Valley High School in her hometown of Aurora, Illinois. But she already knew that she would be competing in the 2016 Olympic Games. She even posted her bold prediction to her Twitter account five years ago.
In 2016 I will be 22, graduated from a school I have not chosen yet, and going to the olympics (:
— Morolake Akinosun™ (@MsFastTwitch) July 28, 2011
Almost exactly five years later, Akinosun posted another message to Twitter letting everyone know that not only did she remember her prophecy, but she fulfilled it, too.
I tweeted that 5 years ago.
It's 2016.
I graduate from Texas in December.
I'm going to the Olympics next week. https://t.co/vusyh5G5Y3
— Morolake Akinosun™ (@MsFastTwitch) July 30, 2016
Akinosun, 22, will graduate from the University of Texas in December. More important, the two-time NCAA champion (4x400m) will look to back up her gold medal from the 2015 Pan-American Games (4x100m) with Olympic gold in Rio. It all actually happened.

ITsavvy Announces Complete IT Lifecycle Management Solution
ITsavvy just announced the rollout of IT Lifecycle Management--a no-cost service to manage each client’s hardware assets, software licenses/subscriptions, existing warranty support as well as any service contracts within the client organization.
ADDISON, Ill. (PRWEB) August 09, 2016
ITsavvy, one of the fastest growing IT products and technology solution providers in the U.S., just announced the rollout of IT Lifecycle Management--a no-cost service to manage each client’s hardware assets, software licenses/subscriptions, existing warranty support as well as any service contracts within the client organization--from design, procurement and deployment to maintenance, decommissioning and final disposal.
Anil Jagtiani, V.P. Professional Services for ITsavvy’s Advanced Solutions Group said, “Although ITsavvy has been providing these services for clients--that include Fortune 500 companies-- for many years, this marks the official rollout of the service as a value-add for our existing clients and a courtesy for those who are not yet our clients.”
ITsavvy’s IT Lifecycle Management team tracks licenses and warranties; negotiates and renews contracts; and provides analytics that help clients plan and budget for replacements and upgrades and maintain expenditure transparency.
For software assets, ITsavvy ensures that clients are complying with licensing usage, that versions are up to date, and that contracts have been negotiated favorably. For hardware assets, ITsavvy tracks the products along the lifecycle, providing strategies for upgrading or replacing as warranty or end of life nears. ITsavvy partners with clients for the long term, supporting them with every aspect of their IT infrastructure, from the layout of an initial technology roadmap, all the way to the refresh and decommission process. Services include:· Identifying and tracking all hardware and software solution components, including location, number of assets and users, type of asset, manufacturer, model/serial number.
· Maintaining advanced partner-level vendor relationships for continual access to proactive support and alerts that will ensure business continuity and product assurance.
· Helping clients bundle and negotiate contracts for optimum cost savings: ITsavvy leverages its own vendor partnerships and bundled services to reduce contract costs, ensure licensing doesn’t lapse and improve the speed of the negotiation process.
· Providing monthly and quarterly reports that help with asset decision making, including reports and alerts on asset inventory, updates, warranties, end of life, lease expiration.
Chris Kurpeikis, ITsavvy’s Executive Vice President said, “The IT operation is moving from a contained datacenter to a diversified infrastructure. Complex IT environments make it difficult to monitor the life of IT assets manually. We offer this as a free service to help companies improve asset reliability, streamline procurement and enable strategic planning.”
Jagtiani added, “When organizations try to manage this internally it can be very frustrating for them. Through IT Lifecycle Management, we bring systemization to the table. For example we will examine contracts for every IT asset that they already own and create a common date for all renewals. This also helps them analyze what they currently have, determine what they really need and budget for upcoming costs.”

-"Batman: Arkham Knight"-
The fourth installment in the "Batman: Arkham" series, "Batman: Arkham Knight" was the first in the franchise developed for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. As such, the game is absolutely gorgeous.
In addition to climbing and gliding across Gotham, this game marks the debut of the Batmobile, allowing you to charge through the streets blazingly fast. When the going gets tough, however, the Batmobile transforms into a tank mode that lets you maneuver more deftly through the city's winding corridors.
"Batman: Arkham Knight" also features incredible voice acting across the board, especially from Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill, who perfectly nail the chemistry between Batman and The Joker (respectively).

"Child of Light" is an unusually intimate and beautiful game unlike anything else you've ever played.
It's structured like a fairytale, meaning all the characters speak in rhyme, and the art style looks like it was carefully painted by hand with watercolor.
You play as Aurora, a young girl stranded in the middle of a fantastical world trying to find her family and return home. Along the way, you'll meet magical creatures, fight evil goblins and demons, slowly unraveling the mysteries of where you are and how to escape.
*Platforms*: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC

Rather than have highly structured levels with just one solution, "Dishonored" lets you choose how to proceed: take out enemies one-by-one without ever being detected, or blast in and use any number of supernatural abilities at your disposal.

7 Things to Never Hide From Your Mortgage Broker
By Deborah Kearns
After you submit a mortgage application, you'll be expected to document standard financial details such as your income, tax returns, employment history and bank assets. But it's the not-so-obvious things that you don't disclose to your mortgage broker or lender that could derail your home purchase.
It's true that lenders give you what feels like a financial colonoscopy to determine your ability to repay your loan. After all, they're taking the upfront risk by fronting hundreds of thousands of dollars to help you buy a home, so you can't blame them for making sure you're legit, right?
That said, it can be tricky to know what details to share with your lender as you wade through the process. When in doubt, though, undiluted honesty is always the best policy, say lending experts Kyle Kamrooz, co-founder of online lending platform cloudvirga, and Jason Pierce, assistant sales manager with American Financing in Aurora, Colorado.
Here are seven things they say you should always disclose from the start:
*1. Large bank deposits*
This one is a biggie. Mortgage lenders require at least two months' worth of bank statements, Kamrooz says, pointing out that large cash deposits send up major red flags in underwriting. Be prepared with documentation and a good reason to explain deposits more than $100, or you risk stalling the underwriting process, he adds.
*2. Employment changes*
Most lenders will check your income and employment more than once throughout the transaction. If you anticipate a job change, lose your job or start your own business -- which changes your tax status (for instance, moving from a W-2 to a 1099 for self-employment) -- tell your lender right away, Pierce says. Not doing so can impact your eligibility to qualify for a loan and pose a problem before closing.
*3. Income of all types*
How much you earn is a key piece of the lending puzzle, and you don't want to lie about it and wind up with a loan you can't afford. If you haven't been at the same job for at least two years, you'll need to provide a documentable job history for each position you've held in that time frame. And word to the wise: Don't try to hide any source of income, or you could put your entire loan application -- and goodwill with your lender -- in serious peril. "It never pays to lie," Pierce says.
*4. Divorce, child support or bankruptcies*
Believe it or not, these personal details are all fair game for your lender, too. If you don't disclose income from child support or alimony (or that you pay it to a former spouse), there's a potential for a lot of liabilities now and in the future, Kamrooz says. Also, if you've had a bankruptcy filing recently, you typically have to wait two years after the bankruptcy is discharged before a lender will consider you for a new mortgage loan.
*5. Past addresses for previously filed tax returns*
A lender qualifies you based off your income, and your IRS tax returns for the past few years give credence to verifying your income. Your lender will request a copy of your tax transcripts and compare that data against the income documentation you've provided, Kamrooz says. If the addresses don't match up, it could create a verification issue for your mortgage application. Make sure you have a list of past addresses handy in case your lender requests this information so your loan doesn't get derailed.
*6. New loans or major purchases*
You've probably heard that you shouldn't buy a new car or take out a big loan right before or while you're applying for a mortgage. That wisdom is spot-on and the reason is simple: It increases your debt-to-income ratio, Pierce says. This is especially true for lower-income or Federal Housing Administration loan borrowers, who typically have a tight DTI to begin with, Pierce adds. The higher your DTI, the higher your interest rate and the riskier you are to a potential lender, which can impact what type of mortgage you qualify for.
*7. Plan for your financial assets*
You have to come up with a large sum of money for your down payment and closing costs, and your lender will expect proof that you have ample funds to follow through with your purchase. Many borrowers don't have a plan for where some of that money will come from, and they really need to have that sorted out ahead of time, Pierce says. If you're not sure how to structure things, ask your lender for guidance and to give specific examples of assets you should account for, such as checking and savings accounts, retirement and pension accounts, brokerage accounts, college savings funds, and financial gifts from friends/relatives.

Mediterra earns Grand Aurora Award for Best Community Site Plan in the Southeast
Mediterra was recognized with a coveted Grand Aurora Award for Best Community Site Plan during the 35th Annual Aurora Award competition recently presented by the Southeast Building Conference (SEBC) and the Florida Home Builders Association (FHBA).
Naples, Florida (PRWEB) August 10, 2016
Mediterra was recognized with a coveted Grand Aurora Award for Best Community Site Plan during the 35th Annual Aurora Award competition recently presented by the Southeast Building Conference (SEBC) and the Florida Home Builders Association (FHBA).
London Bay Homes’ Capriano model home in Mediterra also earned an Aurora Award for best custom home in the 4,000 to 6,000 square foot category. Nestled within Lucarno – a village neighborhood inspired by the charm and classic style of Europe’s Mediterranean region – the four-bedroom, single-family luxury villa has won numerous awards. The popular home sold for $2.4 million prior to its completion. Two additional Capriano models showcasing the award-winning talent of Romanza Interior Design are currently under construction and scheduled for completion this fall.
“From its homes to its coveted lifestyle, Mediterra was designed as Naples’ premier luxury golf and beach club community,” said Mark Wilson, president and CEO of London Bay Homes. “No detail has been overlooked, including an ambience reminiscent of the Italian countryside with its rolling hills and tree-shaded streets.”
Judges considered not only Mediterra’s beauty – from its entry and individual neighborhoods, as well as homes, like the Capriano – but also its amenities, topography, environmental landscape, streetscapes, common areas and recreational spaces.
Mediterra offers intimate neighborhoods tucked into nature preserves, parks, lakes, a formal European garden, and the community’s two Tom Fazio-designed championship golf courses. In addition to a private Beach Club on the Gulf of Mexico, Mediterra offers eight miles of walking and jogging trails; a fitness complex with tennis and bocce courts, swimming pool and spa services; and a 32,000-square-foot clubhouse featuring formal and casual dining.
Honoring businesses in architectural design, interior design and planning, the Aurora Award competition drew 335 entries in 57 categories. Mediterra competed against communities within the 12-state region stretching west to Texas and Louisiana, north to Virginia and also including the eastern Caribbean.
For more information, visit http://www.MediterraNaples.com, call 239-949-8989, or visit Mediterra, located on Livingston Road, two miles north of Immokalee Road and west of I-75. The Mediterra Sales Gallery is open daily. Reported by PRWeb 12 hours ago.
