It's been over twenty-five years since actor/photographer Roddy McDowall died of lung cancer in 1998. McDowall, despite some career challenges, was one of that breed of rare former child actors who successfully transitioned into Hollywood adulthood. He was also, however, one of the industry's "openly closeted" actors, which came with its own sense of issues. This is his story.

Luke Bryan just unloaded some Florida real estate… and he made a pretty penny doing so. Six figures? Higher. How about seven? Nope. The country star was asking EIGHT figures for his “Sunshine State” beach house, and one buyer finally ponied up and paid it. As of right now, the sale is pending, but if it goes through, Bryan will be walking away $12.95 million richer.

David Moot had always fantasized about owning a beachfront retreat on Cape Cod, but never thought he could afford it—until he stumbled upon a coastal gem listed for just $395,000.

At roughly half the median sales price in the area according to recent estimates, the listing seemed too good to be true. And it was — the affordable slice of paradise at 157 Brownell Road in Eastham could soon be swept away by the Atlantic.

Are people getting more high maintenance or is it just me? One thing that you can't deny is that CERTAIN people require a lot more TLC and attention, on the daily and especially during trying times. This applies to both platonic relationships and romantic. We usually call these people high maintenance because, well, they usually require (or demand!) all of your efforts and then some to be satisfied. These characteristics are closely linked to their zodiac sign temperament, so read on to see who is on the list!

5 Zodiac Signs that are the Highest Maintenance and Most Demanding

With the exception of bears, there is perhaps no creature that gets more press when it attacks humans than sharks. We have weeks dedicated to them on television, movie franchises where each sequel is worse than the last, and countless social media videos giving sharks more attention than they probably ever wanted. For beachgoers in Hawaii, it's always at the back of their mind, even if shark attacks are ultimately rare. But it may be a little more in mind in Maui, where there are more attacks than anywhere else in Hawaii.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — For Carlos Leon, living on a boat anchored off this posh seaside community, is the ideal lifestyle. The weather is good, except for the occasional hurricane, and the water is inviting. During the COVID pandemic, he and his girlfriend, now wife, bought a 41-foot sailboat and anchored it in Biscayne Bay. “It’s like 400 feet, 500 feet from Miami Beach land,” he says. They share their floating home with a long-haired German Shepherd.

When your temper flares are you a raging bull? A vicious Virgo or a conniving Capricorn? Emotions are complex states that involve physiological, behavioral, and cognitive changes. They influence how we perceive the world around us, how we interact with others, and how we make decisions. However, our emotions are not the only factor that influences our behavior. Astrology can be a telling factor as well.

On Florida's Gulf Coast, tiny Caladesi Island lies just off the town of Dunedin. Like its neighboring twin sister, Honeymoon Island, Caladesi is a U.S. state park with stunning beaches and a natural, undeveloped environment.
