Eleven residents of Palm City decided to tap into the county's municipal drinking water line illegally before the final tests of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection agency were made to verify that the water is safe for consumption. According to the director of the utilities company, the line would have been opened within a few days, but these residents were acting illegally by tapping the line prematurely. When county workers made this discovery, they were forced to shut the line down on Wednesday to stop the residents from receiving the water into their homes.

Saudi Prince Bandar has set his 56,000 square-foot mansion on a record sale of $135 million. If the Prince is able to find a buyer the purchase will be the costliest in U. S. real estate history. Real estate agent Joshua Saslove says in a statement to the Aspen Times and the Aspen Daily News that Bandar's mountaintop hideaway has 15 bedrooms and 16 bathrooms, a racquetball court, an indoor pool, and other outdoor water features. Saslove says the getaway is up for sale because the prince's been too busy to enjoy his palace.

Often, customers got more than they paid for when they developed severe infections following the unlicensed procedures.
