We all enjoy watching our favourite soap and immersing ourselves in the lives of the various communities. Through the telly we have come to know the characters like family. www.mouseprice.com was one of the first websites to allow nosey neighbours to find out how much the Jones' paid for their place. Now www.mouseprice.com has gone a step further and has revealed the likely worth of the houses in your most favourite soaps!As a bit of fun, www.mouseprice.com, an online service that provides the actual price paid for all houses, has compiled the following information about our most loved soaps...Coronation Street You might love Corrie , but did you know that the rooftops that you see in the credits are some of the cheapest in Britain? House prices on Laburnum Street in the Langworthy Estate, which is where the soap is located, are dramatically below the UK average property price. A three bedroom terrace house, costs around ?17,000, and the average price since 2000 for properties in this area is around ?7,000.
Even though it appears as though this area is warm community, the majority of homes are boarded up and awaiting demolition!EastendersIn the war of the soaps Eastenders and Albert Square come out on top - in terms of property prices at least! Albert Square or our proxy, Tredegar Square - E3, is one of the nicer parts of East London . As would be expected in London, property here is not cheap. For ?845,000 one can own a 5 bedroom terrace. If you want to become a true Eastender you'll need a bit of dosh!EmmerdaleThose living in this little village in rural Yorkshire have experienced a 96% increase in the value of their property since 2000. A three bedroom semi-detached home on Emmerdale Main St.
aka Esholt Lane is now worth approximately ?130,000. A handsome sum, but then again the delights of the Woolpack are just down the road.BrooksideBrookie fans will know that the first episode was shown on the 2nd November 1982 and instead of filming in a studio six real houses were brought. Brookside Close, aka Coachman's Drive - L12 is a nice area despite the many controversial issues raised by the show, e.g. Drug Abuse, Domestic Violence,Bulimia and Religious cults etc.... Here one can enjoy a three bedroom semi for ?190,000.
The area is not too far from various shops, restaurants and even a nightclub. HollyoaksFinally we have Hollyoaks - aka Bouverie Street - CH1 . This area has seen large growth over the past 5 years, close to a 78% increase. Here one can find a three bedroom terrace house going for ?170,000. Depending on your view point, the proximity to Hollyoaks Community College may be a positive or negative feature.For the full table of Soap Opera house prices please visit: http://www.mouseprice.com/Articles/soap_house_prices.aspxKristin GarlandPR Managerwww.mouseprice.com"find the actual price paid for every house sold".
United Hebrew Geriatric Center Sponsors Staff Member Trip to New Orleans
New Rochelle, NY (ContentDesk) May 18, 2006 -- Karen Nodiff was a new staff member of United Hebrew Geriatric Center (UHGC) when the opportunity arose to travel to New Orleans this past March. Several members of her synagogue, Temple Israel of New Rochelle, were traveling to New Orleans with Habitat for Humanity of Westchester. Nodiff wanted to go but had not yet accrued any vacation or personal time at UHGC. To her surprise, not only did UHGC donate her time for the trip but it also provided financial sponsorship.UHGC provides its residents with a home that supports a life of dignity and high quality, says Nodiff. The Center believes that everyone should have a safe and dignified home, and that sponsoring my trip was a small but important way to help the citizens of New Orleans.Jim Killoran, Executive Director for Habitat for Humanity of Westchester approached Rabbi Michael Z.

Outdoor Patio Furniture: Exploring the Benefits of Teak
Of the many types of materials that are available for the construction of outdoor furniture, teak is often overlooked. This beautiful wood - of tropical origin - adds character and elegance to your outdoor design through a blending of nature and man-made elements which provide an outstanding aesthetic presentation to any yard.
Teak (technically known as tectona grandis) has been proven to be the best wood for use in the great outdoors. As a result of its high rubber content, this wood has a natural resistance to heat, water and frost without the benefit of any treatment or special coating.
Teak has a Natural Resistance to the Outdoors
