Flooding possible
The National Weather Service in Miami issued a flood advisory for Miami-Dade and Broward counties until 9:45 a.m. Wednesday.
The showers weren't causing delays Wednesday at Miami International Airport.
Fewer travellers
More than 753,000 passengers, about 2.5 percent less than last year, are expected to pass through Miami International Airport during the holiday week.
FLL has daily parking available at $15 a day. Daily parking is located in the garages adjacent to the terminals. Valet parking is available at the Palm and Hibiscus garages.
Cancer of fraud
A U.S. Senate committee revealed last year that public health insurer Medicare had paid as much as $92 million from 2000 to 2007 for medical services or equipment ordered or prescribed by doctors who were dead at the time.
Many had died more than five years before the date when they supposedly ordered or authorized the service.

3DTV Festival planned by Virgin Media
Virgin Media is going for 3D TV in a big way following social trials in the Virgin Media market in London.
It appears that either Virgin Media has a try for 3D TV, or it is trying to force Sky TV into showing its 3D TV hand.
Anticipated to take place from November 17th, the service will allow subscribers to admission content which has been moved into possessive anaglyph images and should appear 3D via especial spectacles.
The “3D Festival” from Virgin Media will give customers admission to Channel 4’s The Queen in 3D and Derren Brown's 3D Magic Spectacular. The two programmes will be available in Catch up TV and TV Choice.
In accordance with Broadband TV News, the spectacles will be available from Sainsbury's and Virgin Media shops in the build-up to the so-called 3D V Festival.
Jon Ingram, operations director at Digitalchoices.co.uk, said: “This offer is excellent news if you are a Virgin Media customers and you miss the 3D content being aired this week on Channel 4.”
He added too: “After its successful 3D trials, it will be fascinating to see if Virgin Media determine to give customers more 3D content, such as the 3D channel planned by Sky.”

Jordan, Belle de Jour & Edward Woodward
Woodward was that rarity in the entertainment world: the 1 who specialised in nothing much, yet appeared to be particularly talented in whatever he took on:
oasis wretch, heroes, characters from melodrama and the musical comedy stage – All of a piece were tackled with a magnificent professionalism. telegraph
Belle de Jour is be able rest simple: her mother does not mind that she worked as a call girl whose online diary became a literary phenomenon.

The charm young lady, real name Katie Price, said she's alarmed that I'm A Celeb producers will make her gobble up brute genitalia in a bushtucker trial.
Katie Price exclaimed: "I bet I get to eat a willy. I can't eat a willy!"
"I have requested that because I have veneers [on my teeth], if there is anything nice and chewy, I better have a knife and fork - otherwise I will not be able to chew it."lady gaga
Katie Price also added: "I think the producers will definitely have a surprise for me. Oh no, please do not hurt me too much." the sun
In 1970 Woodward won a Bafta award for best actor for his role in Callan.

Where have the Floridians gone - 10/15/09 - Other stuff
I haven't laughed that hard for ages.
Read this
A Florida man named Joshua Basso ran out of cell phone minutes and dialed the only free number when he wanted sex - 911. That's right, the number we dial for emergencies only.
No way is this right in my book
Something good now:
Tampa foreclosures
Hillsborough County continues to experience declines, despite its 13th ranking in the state. Filings were up 6.7 percent from September but down more than 5 percent from a year ago.
Another take on No Fault's Action
That allowed Florida to remain behind Nevada and California with the highest foreclosure rates for the second month in a row.
Lets home it all goes down, foreclosures, monthly bills, auto insurance premiums, unemployment.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Nov. 14 (UPI) -- The world's largest cruise ship was a sight to behold as it steamed into its Fort Lauderdale, Fla., home port for the first time, observers said.
The ship -- which sports 24 restaurants, two rock-climbing walls and two surf simulators -- crossed the North Atlantic from a shipyard in Turku, Finland, to its new home port in 14 days, passing through hurricane-force winds along the way, the Herald said.
I personally hate cruise ships. Have boon on one and didn't feel well at all. Never ever again

Taylor Swift Country Music Awards
On Wednesday night, Taylor Swift stormed the Country Music Association Awards and took at home all four prizes for which Taylor was nominated, including the much-coveted Entertainer of the Year trophy.
While it seemed like a validation of Swift's success from the country music establishment, no much people was pleased with the 19-year-old's victory. Country music legend Wynonna Judd spoke out versus Swift's victory, though she reversed her position on Thursday.
During an interview on the show's red carpet Wednesday night, Wynonna was asked what advice she would give to Taylor Swift. "You want my loyal advice? It's too much too soon," Wynonna said, according to USAToday.com. "Time is God's way of keeping everything from happening at once. It's just too much of a good thing too soon. Mom and I rode in a vehicle for the first year of our career to visit radio stations. There was a making of the star, there was a rising-up, and the fans went with us. Now it's over coffee breaks, the success, almost."
But on Thursday, Judd clarified her stance on the message board of her official Web site. "I understand that my comment about Taylor Swift's Entertainer of the Year nomination came across as a negative statement," Wynonna wrote. "My intent was not to take anything away from her talent and contributions to the country music industry, all of which are truly unprecedented for an artist of any age. Taylor is a beautiful, hard-working young woman that deserves the success she has had and I support her as an artist and as a woman in the business."
