Should the federal minimum wage go up by more than $2?

U.S. Senator Tom Harkin, an Iowa Democrat, has proposed that it climb to $9.80 over the next two years, having stood at $7.25 an hour since 2009. Harkin's proposal would give a minimum-wage worker the greatest purchasing power he or she has seen since the late 1960s. Harkin intends to submit legislation in the next Congress.

He is not the only Democrat who has expressed support for a minimum-wage increase. It was part of the Democratic Party platform in 2008 and 2012. A higher minimum wage, Democrats argue, would support low-wage workers by reducing income inequality and stimulating the economy.

The evidence for their first claim is reasonably strong. An increase in the minimum wage would reduce inequality by pushing up the incomes of the poor, a report from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development found this year. A 2008 paper by economists Robert J. Gordon and Ian Dew-Becker also found that minimum wages have significant empirical impacts on income inequality.

It is less clear, though, that a higher minimum wage would do anything to boost economic activity. A study by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago did find that it would increase consumption: For every $1 increase in the minimum wage, households with minimum-wage workers increased spending by $800 per year. Almost all of these gains, however, come from the interaction of income redistribution with savings rates. Since high-income households save more of their income than low-income households, income redistribution tends to shift savings into consumption. That has ambiguous effects on economic growth.

Republicans, to their discredit, have done a poor job rebutting Democratic arguments. Their main counterargument is that increasing the minimum wage would increase unemployment. A higher binding price floor on labor, Republicans reason from the economic basics, will increase the amount of labor that goes unused.

The problem with this argument is that it proceeds in almost complete ignorance of empirical analyses that find small, if any, impacts of the minimum wage on employment. The most important work on this topic comes from two pairs of economists: David Card with Alan Krueger, and David Neumark with William Wascher. Card and Krueger find no employment impacts, whereas Neumark and Wascher find significant but limited effects.

How can that be? It's because labor is a complex market. It doesn't neatly behave according to the supply-and-demand models you'd find in an introductory economics textbook. There is not a single market for labor, nor is "labor" a single, undifferentiated commodity. Most employers have significant market power for the goods or services they produce, and so they mostly pass on the increased labor costs in the prices of their products instead of cutting production and jobs. All of this means that the "labor market" does not quite respond to the minimum wage in the way Republicans have argued it does.

So that means we should sign on to Harkin's proposal, right?

No. Liberal arguments for increasing the minimum wage have a fundamental flaw: They restrict the set of policy choices to either a minimum wage increase or doing nothing. That means they overlook the single most important federal policy for the poor: the Earned Income Tax Credit.

The EITC is a measure in the federal tax code to support the living standards of the poor without creating a "welfare trap" by diminishing the incentive to work. Economists widely consider the credit a success for reducing poverty while increasing employment. Created in 1975, the credit has been successively expanded in five times since. It is now the nation's largest anti-poverty transfer program.

In its latest iteration, for families with two or more children, the credit is 40 percent of the first $10,750 of earned income. After earned income exceeds $15,040, the credit is phased out at a rate of 21.06 cents per marginal dollar, and it goes away fully at the point when earned income reaches $35,458. (The EITC code is similar for smaller families, childless married couples and singles.)

Democrats who want to address income inequality would be much better served by increasing the EITC rather than the minimum wage. Alternatively, if Republicans shifted strategy and suggested an increase in the EITC as a counteroffer to Democratic minimum-wage proposals, they would have the clearly stronger argument on merits. They have the opportunity to do so now, with the "fiscal cliff" deal only temporarily extending the 2001 and 2009 expansions of the credit.

Republicans could correctly argue that compared to the EITC, the minimum wage is a flawed and frankly out-of-date policy tool. First, the minimum wage is inefficient: The same income support could be provided at a quarter of the cost with the EITC, according to Forbes's Adam Ozimek. Second, its benefits are poorly targeted, with little going to the neediest families, according to Employment Policies Institute fellow Michael Saltsman. This is in part because, as Bureau of Labor Statistics data show, many minimum-wage workers are actually teenagers entering the workforce who come from middle-class families.

Although supporting the EITC in opposition to the minimum wage may seem like a change of argument for the Republicans, it would actually be a return to the case that conservatives and free-marketers once argued. George J. Stigler, the Nobel laureate and torchbearer of the Chicago school of economics, once made the outlines of this argument by recommending a negative income tax. Milton Friedman also endorsed the idea as the best way to provide for the social welfare of the poor.

Stigler wrote in 1946, Friedman in 1962. As it comes time again to debate the minimum wage, Republicans would be well served by dusting off Stigler's and Friedman's insights. They would there find a forceful intellectual case against increasing the minimum wage.

Peter Eisenman Reexamines Andrea Palladio's Work

'Palladio Virtuel' exhibit

Villa Rotonda Model overlaid with axonometric

Villa Repeta Axonometric
Villa Repeta Model
After 10 years of studying the villas of Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio, Peter Eisenman, FAIA, presents his findings at the Yale School of Architecture in Palladio Virtuel. He proposes a reading of 20 of Palladio's villas that could force architectural historians to take another look at the 16th-century architect. Instead of understanding Palladio's forms as ideal, with a part-to-whole stability, Eisenman proposes that the villa components—portico, circulation, and central-figured spaces—became all but unrecognizable by the end of Palladio's career, as Palladio transformed and reinvented his forms. Gray, color-coded villa components are highlighted in 20 villa models and presented in three parts in the exhibit: "The Classical Villas: The Impending Crisis of Synthesis"; "The Barchessa Projects: Extensions into the Landscape"; and "The Virtual Villa: The Dissipation of the Villa Type." Eisenman, of Eisenman Architects in New York, is the first Charles Gwathmey Professor in Practice at Yale. Through Oct. 27. • architecture.yale.edu

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Mokwatlo, Annah Mmannana URN etd-05162008-132904 Document Title A usability study of printed pamphlets of the Agricultural Research Council (ARC) in the rural community of Ga-Matlala Degree MA (Development Communication) Department Information Science Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof M E Snyman Supervisor Keywords
- rural community
- communication
- information dissemination
- Ga-Matlala
- Agricultural Research Council (ARC)
Date 2007-04-23 Availability unrestricted Abstract
Brochures are often used to disseminate information to disadvantaged communities. This study attempts to evaluate the usability and effectiveness of information brochures developed by the Agricultural Research Council (ARC) for development communication among developing communities on guidelines on how to grow Bambara groundnut and the cultivation of maize in a South African development context. The main objectives of the study were to establish the target audience's comprehension, usability and effectiveness of the selected pamphlets. The study also attempted to examine the influence of the demographic and socio-economic factors on the effective communication of information.
Usability here refers to the extent to which communication materials such as information pamphlets can be used by specific users to achieve specific goals namely effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context.
This study's main focus is on the distinguishing characteristics of reader focus text evaluation method as outlined in Schriver (1989). Reader focus text evaluation method was used to evaluate the usability of pamphlets in the research conducted among small-scale farmers of Tibane and Kordon at Ga-Matlala district in the Limpopo Province
The two pamphlets were evaluated with the intention to establish whether the users understood the contents and whether the message was effectively communicated or not.
The findings of the study indicate that the information disseminated by the ARC agricultural pamphlets is not effectively communicated because of the language and the arrangement of pictures or frames used in the pamphlets, which confused most illiterate participants. This ineffective dissemination of development information in rural communities needs to be revised to ensure its effectiveness.

Facebook testing new Pinterest-inspired design for app stories in News Feed
Facebook appears to be testing a layout for Open Graph app stories that is similar in design to Pinterest, with boxes for individual items that allow Likes, comments and other app-specific actions.
The change makes app stories even more prominent in News Feed. Developers could benefit from the larger photos, captions and additional options for users' friends to engage with app content.
Clicking on a photo takes users to the third-party app page or website. When users hover over a photo, they have the option to comment on the item, which wasn't available in the old layout. Also on hover, users can take in-app actions without leaving Facebook if the app has created custom action links.
For example, in the case of the Foodspotting app, users can "want a dish" directly from News Feed.
It's unclear how widely this change has been rolled out or if it is simply an early test. We're looking into whether the design applies to all Open Graph stories, from games and other apps, or if it only appears when apps share multiple photos. Either way, the layout is likely to remind users of Pinterest. Although we can't say for sure whether Facebook's designers were thinking about Pinterest when they came up with this, we've previously suggested that Facebook might take some design cues from the social bookmarking site since it has quickly risen in popularity. The latest News Feed change coincidentally also applies to stories from Pinterest itself since the site integrates Open Graph.
This is what Pinterest stories looked like in News Feed before the change:
We've reached out to Facebook for more information.
Update 7/19/12 2:48 p.m. - Facebook provided the following comment, "We're always testing new Platform features, but we have nothing further to announce."
Update 7/20/12 8:56 p.m. - It appears the new layout also applies to stories from music streaming apps like Loudlee, according to this screenshot from Kobi Gamliel:

Super cute! Really flattering and young, but still appropriate for a more mature beach scene. Love the suit. March 15, 2014
Adorable, but not for me. This is a great looking swimsuit but is best for a very young, pencil thin gal. I'm in fairly good shape but this was a tough fit even after ordering up a size. You need a long torso to pull this off. Great suit that would look amazing on a tall, thin young girl. Loved it, wish I could keep it! March 3, 2014

PTC Council behaving badly — all 5 of them
This writer's last opinion column was critical of the Peachtree City mayor and four city council members for their June 16 assault on the city's recreation program. It was noted that their shameful action was the straw that broke the camel's back and the column called for all five incumbents to resign from office because they had lost credibility with the public.
Today's column identifies five of the many "straws" that led to the conclusion that these self-centered politicians should step aside and permit the citizens to elect adults to take charge of the city. They have harmed Peachtree City during the first 19 months of their regime as follows:
• The council gleefully voted to amend the city ordinance to allow cell towers on city-owned open space parcels such as Blue Smoke Park (OS-P zoning). Cell towers are huge revenue producers and this writer is concerned that the City Council has a tower lease revenue producing plan that will be revealed after the next election. The new ordinance is already in place and new open space zoned towers may be visible from nearby residential neighborhoods within two years!
• The second "straw" relates to the federally subsidized low income apartments that will be built on Newgate Road. NorSouth Corporation, the developer, sued the city in both federal and state court alleging age and racial discrimination after their rezoning petition was denied. The City Council chose to fold and give NorSouth everything it wanted rather than protect the Kedron community by fighting in court.
The council further spit in the face of citizens by formally passing a resolution in support of NorSouth's application for tax credits. These credits will significantly boost the developer's bottom line.
The city has since agreed to sell land to NorSouth to help make the project bigger and more suitable for the developer's needs. The action of the City Council makes one wonder what is the advantage of acquiescing to NorSouth's demands.
• The third "straw" that broke the camel's back relates to the city's industrial park. Our mayor and city council naively petitioned the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to designate the city's industrial park as an economically challenged area in a well-meaning effort to increase the amount of tax credits for new jobs created by industry.
The action actually discouraged economic development. Experienced economic developers and commercial real estate agents are aware that corporate executives exploring relocation won't consider or visit a site in economically challenged areas unless they are looking for third -world-country labor costs. It is likely that Peachtree City has been eliminated from numerous site searches by top quality corporations because the industrial park is documented in state records as economically challenged.
• The fourth "straw" is council's decision to disband the fire department's dive team to save $18,000 despite knowing it is responsible for rescues on two large lakes and numerous ponds in the city. It could cost more to bring a dive team from another jurisdiction into Peachtree City if there is a need to recover a body from one of the lakes.
Council voted at the same meeting to proceed with a bubble to cover the outdoor swimming pool at the Kedron Field House eventually costing almost one-half million dollars in borrowed money. Is there something wrong with their priorities?
• The fifth and most serious "straw" was created when council quietly convinced the local legislative delegation to introduce and pass state legislation allowing creation of a public facilities authority in Peachtree City. After passage of the bill, council quickly established the new authority and appointed themselves to five of the six authority positions.
The "talking points" explanation is that the authority is needed to give council the ability to refinance existing bonds and levy new bonds to save the city's infrastructure while reducing debt service obligations. Their numbers amount to voodoo economics and the new authority is a scam comparable to a Charles Ponzi scheme!
Since the late 1990s, Peachtree City has financed facilities and other capital projects through the Georgia Municipal Association's (GMA) Brick and Mortar Program. This cooperative arrangement insures that Peachtree City and other participating cities get favorable rates and pay less in fees when bonds are used to borrow money. The GMA has rules, regulations and limits on the amount of debt service specifically for the protection of taxpayers. Peachtree City staff was advised in 2009 that the capacity for Brick and Mortar loans to Peachtree City was running out.
The facilities authority was created by this council to resolve that issue. According to the proposed budget, the authority will now be irresponsibly used to buy things such as replacement police vehicles, which should be paid from the annual operating budget.
The scam is that the City Council will use long-term bonded indebtedness to finance operating budget expenditures, making more operating money available for pet projects. They are mortgaging the taxpayers' future for short-term gratification.
Finally, it appears that Council persons Imker, Fleisch and Learnard are picking a fight with the mayor and Councilman Sturbaum. The confrontations will be a blood bath, but the Imker team will win because three votes prevail when the opposition has only two votes.
It is the prediction of this writer that once the triumvirate gains dominance, the winning predators will viciously turn on each other. Their ambition simply will not allow them to be team players and act in the best interest of those who they are paid to represent.
An anonymous citizen submitted a vent published in a recent edition of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The vent is relevant to our situation in Peachtree City.
"We have met the enemy and he is us. We are the ones who keep electing these people to office and then look the other way when they prove to be incompetent, unethical or both. We need to start holding them and ourselves accountable!"
Enough said!

Thank you for the effort and the backbone to write these good columns. Keep them up !
Nice column, Ernest T. Bradshaw. With all of the actions that council addresses, it is really easy to criticize individual actions after the fact. But what benefit is it to simply throw stones?
Given that politicians and government are inherently self-serving, beyond that I've found this council to have worked in good faith. While I'm not thrilled with all of their actions, it's been several years since we've had a council with as much propensity to protect the quality of life we have in PTC. It's a difficult job and I thank them for their efforts.
Item 1: Cell towers:
Mr. Bradshaw, where were you when all the discussions were happening on this subject. I attended several of these 'cell tower' meetings sponsored by concerned citizens as well as at PTC city council meetings. I personally don't have a problem because as you said; "Cell towers are huge revenue producers".
What you failed to learn, because of your absence, is that an actual 'tower' will not be required in many instances because of new more compact "DAS" or Distributed Antenna Systems. Google it.
Item 2: 8A Housing Units
We can collectively thank Mayor Haddix and Mayor Haddix alone for this one. His inappropriate and ill timed comments while in the presence of NorSouth's attorney left PTC in an untenable position.
Item 3: Industrial area, economically challenged area
It would appear that some wouldn't agree with you.
Google, "Deal announces OneGeorgia job creation and investment grants".
"The OneGeorgia Authority was created with one-third of the state's tobacco settlement to assist Georgia's most economically challenged areas. The OneGeorgia Authority is expected to receive approximately $1.6 billion over the 25-year term of the settlement. From the Authority's inception to date, OneGeorgia has given 525 awards, totaling $306.7 million, leveraged against total project investment of $7.3 billion. This is a return on investment of 24 to 1 and impacts 139 economically depressed counties. More than 54,000 jobs have been retained and created."
Additionally, it would appear that Prudential Georgia Realty; Commercial & Investment Services Division also disagrees with you.
You can Google, "economically challenged area, Georgia" and read the full articles yourself.
Item 4: Disband the fire department's dive team
You wrote, "… save $18,000 despite knowing it is responsible for rescues on two large lakes and numerous ponds in the city. It could cost more to bring a dive team from another jurisdiction into Peachtree City if there is a need to recover a body from one of the lakes."
I would suggest you read the Citizen article, "PTC to donate dive team equipment", dated July 31, 2011.
"A major factor in the decision was the budget, as the dive team needed a projected $59,000 in funding over the next two years. Among those costs was an estimated $41,000 for communications equipment used for underwater and land-based personnel."
"In such situations the city will have to summon a dive team from a neighboring jurisdiction, which will cost time but most likely not money."
It would appear that Mr. Bradshaw has the dreaded "Haddix syndrome".
Definition of 'Haddix syndrome'; The overwhelming, often debilitating, urge or desire to express one's own opinion as fact.
Bradshaw is a little off-base in some of his "facts" in this latest column and you did a nice job of pointing out the difference between his "facts" and what are truly opinions, and not very informed opinions on his part.
It did remind me a lot of a Haddix screed, though with a higher level of literacy.
First, these people on council and the Mayor were elected democratically.
They are all going to resign as requested about as soon as does Barney Frank and that Ryan fellow!
Much of these complaints about the council are similar or duplicates of what has already been said. I see no violation of the law in any of them.
Actually, PTC nor Fayette County want any housing for old folks or minorities!
They also don't want in the ARC, but act as if they do to pound on the Mayor! I frankly don't care how "crude" some think he is. I don't think he knows how to be devious as are some in PTC.
Why on earth do we need a "dive team?" They are for finding bodies--not saving lives! Is it to placate the fire department by adding people who won't be divers but firemen! (devious). (Like the 6-8 cops we have hired for the paths, with bikes).
I've heard the term Voodo economics before it seems to me. Just means it is not understandable.
Is Mr. Bradshaw saying that where the city has always borrowed is the only honest place to further borrow, or is it due to control being in the conservative voter's hands instead of the authority! (devious).
Say so, if that is the meaning.
Heck we might even build a teenager social club here if we had authority money! Might get to like kids!
These "predators," as said above were elected. Love it or lump it, but I know who I will not vote for next time---got a Nixon enemies list!
.......one of them being roundabout!
Like: when a TEA says he doesn't want anything from the federal government he either means no regulations with it or not including what he wants!
Please run for city council. The city needs you especially since you are actually dumber than the mayor.
You would make mayor look good...well he'd be probably half-dumb (like half-drunk) and you could become mayor's new sidekick if Doug doesn't run again. These bloggers would most likely pick on you more than the mayor so in a sense you would make the city look better. PTC would look better with a completely dumb council member and a half-dumb mayor.
Please run.
Seems all you can comment upon is to call everyone dumb or dumber, completely dumb and half-dumb.
Apparently you know NOTHING about any of the accusations!
Gotta be a TEA!
you forget dumbiest!
take your meds
Dear Mr. Bradshaw
I very much agree with your premise regarding the PTC City Council, but unfortunsately I do not agree with the statement regarding all 5.
It is clearly the mayor, who might suffer from from Dunns-Kruger Effect.
see post...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect who is the disruptive one on council. As the council's leader he needs to foster a sense of cooperation, teamwork and concensus. Instead he picks fights and thrives on disagreement and conflict. Clearly he has no management experience.
Regarding a few of your issues identified here.
1-The NorSouth development is not a federally funded low income housing project....it is anything but. It is an age restricted (over 55) community that uses low interest loans from the State of Georgia. NorSouth raises its funds from pension plans, and with the advantageous low interest loans they receive from the State not the Fed, they can build these units and offer low rents. The demographics of the people who live there are primilarly women, over 55, who pay rent using a combination of social security, pension funds or other funds. Again, it is not Section 8 housing, and no Federal money. City Council did not do their homework on this project as did Planning Commission which is why the city was sued. Planning approved it knowing exactly what it was and how nice the properties are and council did not. The mayor biased the entire process with his "bold" statements at the very first workshop meeting when he should have kept his mouth shut...that is why I resigned from Planning Commission a few months later...The mayor stuck his nose inaccurately in the wrong place at the wrong time. Hence the lawsuit. The land sale was needed to make the property flow properly and the low interest loans from the State of Georgia are also required so that great rents are avaliable.
2-Regarding the cell towers, that issue was also reviewed by Planning and I am not sure your information is totally accurate. In the end, Planning decided to open up the process to include both city and private land so that towers could be located in the proper locations that serve the citizens best and not to be forced into the parks. Sites were being reviewed to cover everyone's concerns and opening the process up to allow towers on private lands with strong wording on how far away they needed to be from building, etc...was a win/win for the citizens.
As to your other points...I can not speak but I wanted to clarify the cell tower issue and NorSouth from a planning perspective as a past member of planning.
I have also provided my viewpoint on who really is behaving badly with a theory why.
Thank you and best of luck...I enjoyed reading your editorial.
You're dead on....
We'll see how the cell tower issue works out for our public parks, I'll be waiting.
But what I would enjoy even more is Mr. Bradshaw running for council or mayor. How about it?
The dopey Norsouth thing that Haddix did would not have ever been attempted by any other mayor - not even Steve Brown.
I agree...
We need passionate people, independent thinkers who are concerned with the city not fighting, playing politics and the other associated garbage othis mayor has brought to the table.

All people go through changes, but when it happens to celebrities in the spotlight, it's harder not to notice.
Here are some celeb transformations that have us wondering who we're looking at:
Mickey Rourke
THE KOBAL COLLECTION/MGM/UA; Tiffany Rose/WireImageMickey Rourke's return to boxing in the '90s left him with a need for multiple bouts of facial reconstructive surgery that have subsequently severely altered his appearance. While his surgery choices weren't purely cosmetic like other celebs (see No. 2), it's still shocking.
Kenny Rogers
Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images; Ilya S. Savenok/Getty ImagesI mean, come on Kenny. At least he came clean about it in his memoir.
Val Kilmer
Ron Galella, Ltd./WireImage; Andy Kropa/Getty ImagesThe Iceman was known for portraying such icons as Jim Morrison and Batman, among others. But lately, Val Kilmer has been looking more like, sorry, The IceCreamMan (we said SORRY). It's true that people tend to pack on the weight with age, but look at those side-by-side shots. Heartbreaking. Speaking of packing on the pounds…
Axl Rose
Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic; Shirlaine Forrest/WireImage
From sinewy rock god to… whatever this is. Woof.
Joe Rogan
Carlo Allegri/Getty Images; Vivian Zink/SyfyYou may know Joe Rogan from his stand-up comedy, his affinity for pot or, most likely, from his time spent hosting Fear Factor. If you enjoyed listening to his color commentary while contestants choked down dung beetles, you might be shocked at the transformation Joe has made since the his time on Factor. On his new Syfy show, Joe Rogan Questions Everything, his face may still ring a bell. But before that gig he was a UFC commentator, and since then, Rogan looks more like he belongs inside the ring than out. (Seriously: Check out this pic. He's nearly unrecognizable!)

When it's mild, mitral valve regurgitation may not cause problems. However, severe, mitral valve regurgitation can lead to these complications:
Heart failure. Heart failure results when your heart can't pump enough blood to meet your body's needs. Severe mitral valve regurgitation places an extra strain on the heart because, with blood pumping backward, there is less blood going forward with each beat. The left ventricle gets bigger and, if untreated, weakens. This can cause heart failure.
Plus, pressure builds in your lungs, leading to fluid accumulation, which strains the right side of the heart.

Búðir (also named Búdir) is a small hamlet in Búðahraun lava fields in Staðarsveit, which is in the western region of Iceland, on the westernmost tip of the Snaefellsnes peninsula where Hraunhafnará falls to the sea, the original old name of Búðir having been Hraunhöfn. The village belongs to Snæfellsbær, a municipality that has its administrative centre in the town of Ólafsvík. Just a cluster of old buildings, Búðir is the home of popular country inn and restaurant Hotel Búðir and a very old small church. The original old house of the restaurant and Hótel Búðir burned down a couple of years ago, and had to be rebuilt completely, so as to resemble the original old inn house and to blend into the existing scenery of old buildings and natural surroundings. It is believed that commercial ships and fishing vessels have been making their landing at Búðir all the way back to when Iceland's first inhabitants made their way there across the ocean, and commercial activity started there very early in recorded history. Originally the main function of Búðir was that to act as a commercial and trade hub for Snæfellsnes and the surrounding west coast region, during an extended period of Danish trade monopoly. Today the small hamlet of Búðir along with Hótel Búðir is a center of attraction in Snæfellsnes for tourists and various tourism activities.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

In this short article, I want to give you a few ideas that will help you get to sleep at night and increase the quality of your sleep. So if you currently have any sleeping problems, then you may want to pay attention to every word in this article.
You may have heard that if you are dealing with sleeping problems that you should not have naps during the day. But time and time again research has proven naps to be a powerful way to rejuvenate yourself, give you energy, and increase focus and concentration. All of these things are lacking when you have problems with your sleep. So I recommend that you take a nap but make sure that is not longer than 20 minutes, Otherwise you can wake up feeling groggy.
One powerful tip that I learned about a few years ago, while watching a Alteril review video, was to go outside and get some sunlight as soon as I would wake up in the morning. The reason why you should do this is because when bright sunlight hits your body it's a natural signal to your biological clock to wake up. This can also help you to establish a better wake up routine.
Another thing I learnt was to make your room slightly colder at night rather than warmer. A cold bedroom has been shown to be a favourable way to fall asleep at night. Especially if you sleep with a heavy blanket.
One last quick tip is to exercise intensely a few hours before bed. Now by a few hours I mean you want to exercise in the early to late afternoon. This will also help reduce stress and allow you to experience physical tiredness which can help you sleep at night time.
Everybody wants to lose weight, look fit, attractive, and energetic. But how many people can honestly put there hand in the air and admit that they are the epitome of these qualities? I don't think many people would have the confidence to raise their hand. Especially since so many people are overweight in this day and age. Obesity is reaching new highs every year.
So what can be done to help people achieve these valuable qualities, which so many people desire?
Well one awesome solution is the HCG 1234 program, which has been designed by a doctor and given a lot of praise on the Doctor Oz show, where he gave it his full endorsement. To learn more about this diet just do a search for HCG 1234 review and you will find a ton of useful information.
Apart from the diet system I mentioned above, let's keep things really basic. I'm sure you intuitively know right now what you need to do to lose weight. It's simple. Increase your level of physical activity, yes I'm talking about exercise. And also stop eating crappy foods and replace them with healthy fat burning foods.
Simple right?
I don't know why everybody makes this so complex.
Just do the right things and you will reap the rewards. But the trick is to take massive action and turn these actions into habits. Now, this can be a bit difficult but it's definitely not impossible and when your fat burning actions become a habit, weight loss will become easy.
Bee pollen is considered one of nature's most complete and nourishing foods. Approximately 40% protein, bee pollen is super rich in essential amino acids, and is readily assimilated into the body. In fact, bee pollen has more protein and amino acids pound for pound than beef, steak or eggs!
Not only is bee pollen rich in proteins and amino acids, but it's a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals as well – supplying us with almost every essential nutrient necessary for promoting good health.
The Institute of Apiculture, Taranov in Russia declares that bee pollen has one of the highest sources of rutin (a powerful anti-oxidant and circulatory enhancer) found in nature, as well as being packed with both RNA and DNA – the building blocks of our biological body.
While science can tell us approximately what bee pollen consists of, the one thing they can't do is duplicate it! In experiments where artificial bee pollen was fed to young honey bees, the bees simply expired. (Natural is better!)
Why use MX Bee Pollen?
Energy: Most energy supplements give you a short boost with many harmful side effects. Bee Pollen gives you sustained energy naturally when exercising with home gym equipment like the super multi bowflex pr1000 – all without additives or sugars.
Immune boosting: Bee pollen contains many vitamins and amino acids known to boost the immune system helping stave off many common illnesses as well as help you after illness to regain your strength and energy levels.
Natural: Bee pollen is collected naturally and contains no additives that would hurt the pollen. This Superfood is often craved by many animals who brave bee stings just to get to the pollen and honey. It contains many of the vitamins and minerals in a perfectly balanced and digestible form not found in many multivitamins.
It is carefully collected and dried as to prevent any damage to the valuable nutrients from the elements. If you are feeling the effects of aging or a bad diet, why not try bee pollen as a supplement to your efforts and you will get the revived metabolism and energy to help you get through the day and help you become much more healthy.
Bee pollen is a mixture of bee saliva, enzymes and pollen that the bees have brought back to the hive on their bodies. The bees mix the pollen into granules and sometimes add honey and nectar. Bee pollen contains vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein, and lipids.
Bee pollen varies between batches and location since the pollen components are unique to the plants the bees have visited. If pollen is collected from residential or farming areas where pesticides and other chemicals are used, these will remain will appear in final product.
That's why Pollen from worker bees is so good, since it is collected from bees that live in areas next to national parks bathed in fresh Antarctic winds. Bee pollen can be confused with propolis, royal jelly, honey, honeycomb, although none of them actually contain bee pollen. If you want to ba;ance your weight, use bee pollen. To gain weight naturally if you are under weight – you can try out cb-1 weight gainer... A proven formula with excellent weight gain results.
Propolis is a resinous mixture of tree sap, and botanical matter that bees combine and use to keep their hives free of infections. Royal jelly is secreted by worker bees and fed to bee larva and the queen bee. It is considered a "Wonder Food". Another good product for your skin and beating wart problems is Wartrol… wartrol effectiveness for beating warts is now proven globally.
How It Works
Bee pollen contains many substances including antioxidants, anti-fungal and antimicrobial compounds, and flavonoids with potential benefits to general health and nutrition. The combination of these components help with energy and targets that sluggish feeling and general tiredness without the use of stimulants.
How to Use It
1 to 2 capsules per day is sufficient.
Where to Find It
Bee pollen can only be found in dietary supplements.
Side Effects
Bee pollen can cause allergic reactions in people with pollen allergies, or who have had serious reactions to bee stings. Pregnant and nursing women should not use bee pollen under any circumstances.
The search for perfection by human beings is never ending. Man continues to go through leaps and bounds just to have the perfect house, car, family and so forth. The pinnacle in this search is probably the search for a perfect body. Whether in men or women, the strive to have the perfect body is apparently an age long quest. Working out, dieting plans, anti-aging medications and surgeries have been employed over and over again by people who are need of the a body that fits the expression 'perfect'.
Sytropin is just but one of the many efforts to acquire a perfect body. It has actually been proven to be more effective in attaining the perfect body while effectively dealing with aging. Consistent use of sytropin has an effect of lean body muscles, flexible skin, reduced wrinkles and fines lines, sharper memory and improved libido.
Ingredients That Make Sytropin
The major active components in sytropin are L-Arginine, L-Valine, Glycine, Alpha GPC, L-Glutamine, GABA and L-Lysine just to mention a few. These active ingredients are usually potent enough to produce the desired effect of a lean and toned body.
How Sytropin Works
Naturally HGH is produced in the pituitary gland in the lower back of the brain. It is responsible for the repair of the tissues that are worn out by triggering new cells as replacements. When one ingests sytropin, Alpha GPC triggers the release of growth hormone. The other active ingredients in sytropin work to activate efficient energy consumption by the body and muscle cell regeneration to produce a lean body. Eventually, the finale outcome is weight-loss, reduced body fat and a body that looks younger.
Pros Of Using Sytropin For Weight Loss And Burning Fats.
Since sytropin uses spraying as an ingestion method, it is less expensive than other HGH release supplements. It is therefore cost effective for the consumers compared to injections which cost as much as $1000.
Cones Of Sytropin
One of the cons of using sytropin is that it does not guarantee outcomes. People are made differently from one another and how this supplement reacts to individual bodies is not a constant phenomenon. For some, it works over a short period of time and produces almost instant results. However, for others, it may take 3-8 months of consistent use to have the desired outcome of weight loss. For those who look for a fast supplement to weight loss, you may skip this one.

Feeling unhappy with the way your body looks is very common among modern women. With today's kinds of food and lifestyle, statistical surveys reveal that more than 90% of women are frustrated with their looks. But that's not the end of it. Fats do not just ruin your overall appearance. These molecules also contribute to the development of a lot of chronic disorders such as heart diseases and Diabetes. Aiming to lose weight should be your goal not only because you want to look your best but also because you want to feel and become healthier. Today, as you discover the secret to having a sexier body, you will also understand why getting fit using The Venus Factor is the best decision you can do today.
The Venus Factor
The Venus Factor is a weight loss and body transformation program developed by John Barban specifically for women. There is a difference between men and women's physique and the approach in dealing with these two should be different. The program is generally aimed at promoting weight loss through a combination of dietary changes and home workout exercises which target fats located in the midsection, thighs and arms. In just a period of 12 weeks, you will not just lose weight but also have the best body shape you deserve as a woman.
Why choose this program?
There are hundreds of weight loss products available online and many other weight loss programs but why should you choose The Venus Factor System? Here are some of the reasons why many women who have taken advantage of the program are happy for making the right choice:
Leptin is a naturally-occurring hormone among both men and women. It generally works to regulate metabolism and appetite. While women have more Leptin in their bodies than men, most women develop Leptin-resistance due to many factors. In the end, Leptin-resistance leads to unhealthy metabolism and fat absorption.
The reason why the program works is that it is designed to help your body overcome Leptin-resistance and use the hormone properly. Dietary and exercise components of the program work together to enhance your Leptin production and its use.
Weight loss, indeed, is the first step to reshaping your body but unlike other programs, The Venus Factor works continuously. The program is not a rapid weight loss program. It is definitely not for you if you only want to shed pounds and end there. The program reshapes a woman's body beyond losing weight.
Product purchase comes with access to several instructional videos on how to perform the workouts included in the program. A Venus Factor program manual is also included for more information on how the program works. You also do not have to worry because the program works very simple. All you have to do is to follow the step-by-step guides.
Your body is your sanctuary. Make the right choice today and reshape it to achieve the Venus factor— healthy, sexy and beautiful. Visit the official website for more information.
Contrary to popular myth that warts can be obtained by touching a frog, experts reveal that warts are caused by HPV, a kind of virus that has more than 60 varieties. An individual can have warts if he or she happens to come in contact skin to skin with another person who already has a wart. Warts may spread into other parts of the body through touching, shaving and scratching. Luckily, there are already several types of treatments of warts that one may choose from. Some of these may include the following:
Home Treatment
http://buyingwartrol.net/ says Wartrol Wart Remover is a great choice to get rid of warts. It can be used in the privacy of your home. No appointments needed. Just buy wartrol online. Wartrol ingredients have been certified by the FDA. It comes with a money back guarantee and has been proven to work.
This is one popular method of warts removal. This is when a doctor will use a kind of liquid called nitrogen that freezes and kills the wart. This method is also sometimes called as cryosurgery. An individual may experience some discomfort once the nitrogen liquid is applied onto the skin that was affected with warts. If the wart cannot be removed after one application, the person has to go through the same process again for up to 4 times within three weeks. If this form of treatment does not successfully remove the warts, a physician may then recommend another method of treating the warts.
If you opt to use cantharidin to remove your warts rest assured that you won't find any scar tissue afterwards. The physician will have to paint the cantharidin on your warts and then cover it with a bandage. You will not be allowed to get rid of the bandage for 24 hours. A blister will then form on the affected area and when it dries you will find the warts coming off with your skin. The growth of blister may cause discomfort as it is painful, but you only have to endure it for several hours. The application of cantharidin is done if other treatments such as cryotherapy and salicylic acid failed to remove the warts.
Bleomycin is a kind of medicine that is being applied in order to stop the growth of certain tumors. For warts removal, bleomycin is usually being applied as a form of last resort when several other treatments were not effective in removing a person's warts. This medicine is diluted first using a saline solution before it is being injected directly into the warts. This method must only be performed by a doctor or under the strict supervision of a professional. The process causes burning pain on the affected area. Some side effects of bleomycin for warts removal may include scarring, skin irritation and nail damage.
Time factor is an important consideration while going to achieve desired level of muscles in your body, without getting victim to obesity and overweight syndrome. That is the reason why Ben Pakulski is here to provide you with a workout guide which will be effective enough to target lean muscles for expansion through CEP program.

See, this guide has been designed and implemented in such a manner that the training sessions are simple enough and effective for every person to gain lean muscles in shortest possible time. Ben is aware of the fact that even a layman is not going to invest years for building muscles rather he will always go with the method which guarantees body build-up in short period of time.
Who should choose this program?
If you are not interested in body building and workout sessions with strict follow-up, you should never invest in MI40X workout program. This program is designed for only those people who really like to invest their time period and energy on daily basis, only for 4 minutes to the training sessions and workout regime to gain muscles. Since the process of building your muscles has been explained with easy following and reading notes, you should never compromise with the quality of training procedures. The emphasis has been laid on gaining knowledge about how to gain more lean muscles with minimum efforts and this is not for any dull guy who wants to live with natural endorsements.
Details of MI40X workout program
The quickest way to gain muscle today is to strictly go ahead with the Mi40X training sessions which will require investing your time and energy for just 6 days every week for a few weeks. Each of the workout sessions will require you to perform a particular stretching exercise which will target specific lean muscles to be expanded and the rest 1 day of the week can be kept for full relaxation and rest. See, your body muscles go through repairing and relaxation phase after end of every workout session and this is the perfect time to gain lean muscles on your body. The author further provides genuine and scientifically tested nutritious diet and supplementary intake so that muscle gain process can be achieved in least possible time.
With the many health threats associated with being obese or overweight, people are continuously looking for ways to shed some fat and easily too. This quest to lose weight in a safe and healthy way has led to the trial of several techniques by concerned persons. From regularly hitting the gym to using a number of weight loss supplements, the search for the perfect weight loss solution continues.
One of the new additions to the weight loss supplement family, Meratol is an introduction by the manufacturers of Capsiplex plus C Plex 60. For folks fighting that extra fat and looking to quickly reduce weight without having to battle side effects later on, this product is probably the best choice.
Meratol contains four ingredients focused primarily on weight loss. These 4 ingredients are organic and help to shed some pound in a safe and sound way. These compounds are seaweed extract, cactus extract, prickly pear extract, and capsicum extract. These compounds have been tested and medically analyzed and have been discovered to be safe for human consumption. Meratol works by enhancing and improving the digestive system. It also works on the body metabolism by enhancing it and thus, increasing the rate of burning out fat and some calories. In fact, Meratol has been found to burn out 12 times more calories.
Meratol also provides energy to the body allowing one to engage in more activities, leading to more weight loss. By regularly using Meratol once in a day, a person can lose between 3 to 5 lbs in a matter of weeks. This shows how effective Meratol can be in eth fight to lose weight. It is particularly great for those with busy schedules and cannot regularly go to the gym or exercise their body. The regular use of Meratol daily, one loses weight by just sitting in the office or doing your regular activities. This means you really do not have to go the extra mile to lose weight once you use Meratol regularly.
There are several testimonies from users of the product testify to its efficacy. It should however be noted that Meratol, like any other weight loss pill or supplement, will only aid in losing fat. Users are therefore advised to take on the necessary tasks to lose weight efficiently. And the best way in achieving this is to engage in a healthy lifestyle. Healthy meals and some exercising will increase the speed and rate you lose weight when combined with the use of Meratol.
Mostly Meratol reviews are highly positive, and as no cases of side effects as a result of using the product has been reported, the proper use of Meratol is safe for human consumption.
Ever since human beings have started to focus on body and muscle building benefits, none of the programs and bodybuilding regimes till now has offered scientifically proven techniques to burn your fat and gaining lean muscles. It is for the first time that someone, Ben in this case, has tried to showcase and publicize studies and results backed up by the latest tests and trials. Of course, you will be worried about the wear and tear of muscle fibers because this book boasts of getting your dream muscle build-up in just a few days but you are still unaware of the correct process and rationale behind the launch.
Great scientific base
You will surprised to know here that Ben Pakulski is the winner of Mr. Canada Competition and an expert IFBB professional bodybuilder who has authored this excellent muscle building book, MI40X. It is the second edition to the previous work of Ben, MI40 which was also a popular edition in the world of health and bodybuilding. Moreover, what will surprise you again is that the entire set of physical exercise, activities and diet plan has scientific base to offer more natural results rather than pressurizing on your muscle fibers to expand. Of course, the latest technique of CEP and inter-set stretching methodology has plenty of benefits for your extra fats and lurking muscles.
Unique approach of MI40X
There is no denying the fact that MI40X has something unique for the readers and interested bodybuilders with sole focus on the expansion of muscle fibers in a natural way. That is when your muscles are in the recovery phase, you will need to take some steps to build them. Inclusion of more holistic approach of Cell Expansion Protocol which expands the muscles in recovery or repairing period of muscle fibers has further made it more practical and result-oriented for athletes and even beginners. This is simply going to blow your mind off because not very rigorous and severe workouts are needed for CEP response to work rather you just have to exert optimal stretching force on your muscle fibers!
Since the recovery period for the muscle cells and fibers is an important phase of our body, you need to tackle the muscle damage with caution and extreme sincerity. Since the author of this book boasts of gaining 4 lbs of muscles with simply 4 minutes of exercise regime, nothing can be replaced with this awesome manual of bodybuilding!

Proposition 23 wants to suspend a California law that sets up a timetable for complying with the environment provisions of the Kyoto Protocol because it will have a devastating effect on California's already crumbling economy (especially in terms of unemployment). As the video below shows, perhaps Cameron should save his money and just sell most of his energy-consuming/gas-guzzling homes and vehicles.

Marriage is a Marathonby Mark Gungor
Sprints and marathons are two distinctly different races. In a sprint, one of the most critical elements is the start. Runners practice for hours on end getting into those little blocks and bursting out the very nanosecond the gun goes off. Why? Because if you falter in the start, you don't stand a chance of winning the race.
On the other hand, the starts of marathons are not that important at all. Most runners are just standing around waiting for the gun to go off. Truth is, you could fall down, have three guys run over you, get up, and still win the race. It's not the start that is so important; it is the endurance.
Today, many believe marriage is like a sprint, that the start is what is critical. I never cease to be amazed at how many struggling couples point to the start as the reason for their struggles. "We were too young." "We didn't know each other for very long." "We didn't have enough money." They are convinced that the poor start is the reason for their troubles, but they are wrong. Marriage is not a sprint; it is a marathon. It is not the start that leads to a failed marriage, but the unwillingness to endure the race.
You don't do marathons quickly. You have to spread out your energy over time. Endurance is what empowers a couple over the long haul. It will enable you to push through old familiar conflict zones for the ten-thousandth time without quitting; you just keep going and going. . . Scripture urges, "Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how He did it. Because He never lost sight of where He was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—He could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever." That's endurance. It makes marriages last.

The remote keyless entry system may not work intermittently. Our technicians suggest upgrading the software in the wireless ignition node (WIN) to correct this concern.
A pulsation may be felt in the brake pedal or steering wheel on brake application. This is commonly caused by warped brake rotors. The front rotors are commonly at fault but the rears should be checked also. Warped rotors will need to be re-machined or replaced to correct this concern.
A whine type noise may develop from the power steering pump. Our technicians tell us a revised pump and powertrain control module (PCM) software update are available to correct this concern. Additional, an updated power steering reservoir is available for some models.

2010 Dodge Journey Recalls
If the ignition key unexpectedly moves to the OFF or ACCESSORY position, the engine will turn off. This will depower various safety systems including but not limited to airbags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems may increase the risk of crash and/or injury in the event of a crash. The weight of extra items on the ignition key ring can be a contributing factor to this unexpected occurrence. Until this recall is completed customers are advised to remove all other items from the ignition key ring. Dealers will modify the ignition switch to correct this concern.
The ignition key could inadvertently rotate from the "run" to the "accessory" position, causing the engine to shut off without warning. If the engine shuts off while driving, vehicle performance will be affected, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the "WIN" module to correct this concern. The recall is expected to begin in April, 2011. The Chrysler recall number is L02.
