Susan Mall of San Francisco recalls how her late mother, Alyne Salstone, came to choose her oceanview Sloan’s Curve condominium. Her parents had previously resided at another South End apartment down the coastal road at The Ambassador. “When my parents first came to Palm Beach from Chicago, they lived at The Ambassador, and then the Sloan’s Curve (development) was built, and, my mother loved that location,” Mall recalls. >> PHOTOS: Oceanview Sloan’s Curve condominium at 2100 S. Ocean Blvd. After her husband, Milton, died in 1980, Salstone decided to make Florida her primary home. She bought an apartment in Sloan’s Curve. She ultimately sold it, and later bought the one that was her home until her death a year ago. “Over the years, she made many friends, and played lots of bridge games,” her daughter recalls. Mall and one of her brothers are now in possession of the condo at No. 307-S at 2100 S. Ocean Blvd. It has been put up for sale, priced at $1.345 million by agent Cristina ...

Foxtel's coverage of the AFL and NRL is first class, now we can watch international games live and in high definition. The thought of this, even 10-15 years ago, would have been unthinkable. And the commentary is, generally, of a high standard. That said, I really cannot see or understand the logic or rationale behind the recently adopted practice of interviewing players coming off the field during the half-time break. Surely it is unreasonable to expect players coming in at half-time to readily come up with any deep and meaningful analysis of his/her performance or that of the team when all the player wants to do is have a quiet drink and unwind. It would also be appropriate to remind players that officials are now "wired for sound" and of the need to moderate their language during the game and in after-match interviews. Some of the comments are colourful, to say the least. Andrew Rowe, Florey Centre design flawed A new National Convention Centre is wrongly proposed...

There, they’re going to put Waterside at San Pablo , a single- family community zoned for up to 42 lots, a minimum of 90-100 feet wide. Home prices are expected to be in the $400s to $600s.
