The European Debt crisis has been noticeably absent from the news this week. No the crisis is not solved…however it does seem like the imminent reports of a Greek debt default have gone away. The stock market investors don't know what to do with themselves. The market continues to trade within a very narrow range. Gas prices are hurting at the pump but not enough to really have consumers changing their spending habits.
DEAR BENNY: In a recent column you mentioned a renter who has a lease with an option to purchase the property and who makes his rent payments as agreed, but the property owner has not been paying the mortgage and is heading towards foreclosure.
If the warmer temperatures, bright sunshine and greening of spring give you the urge to clean, you're not alone. If you want to make spring cleaning easier, especially outdoor spring cleaning, a little planning will save lots of elbow grease.
Buyers apparently sense a change in the wind.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Home prices fell in December for a fourth straight month in most major U.S. cities, as modest sales gains in the depressed housing market have yet to lift prices.
SACRAMENTO (AP) - State Attorney General Kamala Harris promoted legislation Wednesday to reform the mortgage process in California and provide more protections for homeowners, three weeks after she secured $18 billion for California in a nationwide bank settlement.
Spring's new growth and warm sunshine provide inspiration for renewal in our lives. It's a time to pack away the sweaters and boots for lighter layers and brimmed hats. Homeowners should embrace this same mindset - one where you pack away the heavy textures and colors of winter in favor of breezy fabrics and fun decor that inspire a fresh feeling in your house.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The average rate on the 30-year mortgage edged down this week to hover again above record lows. Cheaper rates have spurred modest improvements in the battered housing market, but not enough to signal a recovery.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The number of Americans who signed contracts to buy homes rose in January to the highest level in nearly two years, supporting the view that the housing market is gradually coming back.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Bank-owned homes and short sales last year accounted for the smallest slice of overall sales in three years but still made up nearly a quarter of all U.S. homes sold in 2011.
DEAR BENNY: My husband and I each have a trust, and our house is in my trust. We have lived in this house for 14 years. If we were to sell it, would we qualify for the $500,000 tax exemption? I understand each person is permitted $250,000, and a couple twice that amount. Does my trust make a difference, and if so, what should we do? --Arlene
If your home will be on the market this spring, you're probably looking for every possible edge that will make it stand out to potential buyers. But even if you're staying put, you still want to make your home as attractive and valuable as your budget will allow.
The free monthly workshop program offered by the San Joaquin Master Gardeners at the Manteca Public Library is making a comeback following its initial successful run last year.
The next best thing in Manteca housing is here: Oakwood Shores.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The U.S. government regulator for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac must do a better job limiting legal expenses paid by the two mortgage giants to their former executives facing lawsuits, a new watchdog report says.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Average long-term U.S. mortgage rates are up this week to the highest level since mid-March.
Hey you Real Estate Boys: There's a lot going on my/our lives in the coming months. First and most importantly we will be getting married right after we both graduate in May, from Stanislaus with our respective degrees. We both have good jobs in this area and are looking forward to becoming old and boring and raising a family. "She is so brilliant." So, being the conservative future couple we'd like to make sure we start our lives on the correct foot/feet. And that, sirs, is our question. How does a young couple start a life ...
WASHINGTON (AP) - Mortgage giant Fannie Mae says it had net income of $1.9 billion for the first quarter. That's sharply down from the same period a year ago due to lower fee income and larger losses on investments used to hedge against swings in interest rates.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Shortly after Elvis Summers befriended Irene McGhee, he learned she was sleeping on the streets of South Los Angeles.

Here we have, a very large, Majolica, leaf plate. It measures 12 3/4" x 12 1/2" wide, and is 1 1/2" high, with a base that measures 8 5/8" x 6 3/4". Wished it were perfect, but the stem handle has been broken, and the loop part is missing, and there are some small nicks around the edge, and staining on the back and some light crazing. This piece dates to the mid to late 1800's, so the damage is due to use and age. It still displays very well, and will turn heads. There are three colors of green, and two colors of brown on the color pallet on the interior of the piece. Beautifully done piece, and one that still displays nicely. Priced accordingly to allow for the damage!!!

One of the best things about the Amazon Kindle is that it gives you more positions in which to read a book. When you don't worry about having to hold a book open you can sit pretty much however you'd prefer. And one of my favorite positions for reading a book or the Kindle is laying down over the edge of my bed, book on the floor, face overhanging. It's comfortable, but only for a bit. All that lede burying is to say: I never imagined I'd even consider paying $80 for a folding sun chair, but the "3-in-1 Ostrich Chair," with its holes in the top for your face and arms has almost swayed me. I could even get a screen and a keyboard positioned under there, I bet, and maybe get a bedpan... I'm just not going to be happy until I can spend my life floating in a nutrient tank absorbing media with absolutely no physical exertion. Catalog Page [BrylaneHome.com via Coolest Gadgets via 7 Gadgets] Update: Looks like crapvendor Thanko has had a similar idea, although their version is a padded wedge. Mock if you must, but that looks pretty comfortable to me!
3-in-1 Ostrich Chair makes dead man's reading comfortable

Awesome. I've always wanted to buy a massage bed for this exact reason. Actually my ideal solution would be something like a tv-dinner table (you know the ones I'm talking about), but with a clear tabletop that you can rest the book on, while you lay underneath facing up. The only annoying aspect would be turning the page.
I don't know about the Kindle, but the first time I read a book on my Palm pilot, it was a revelation in comfort. To be able to position yourself in any way, with no thought to keeping the "book" adjusted to the reading light or even reading in complete darkness thanks to the back lighting was so freeing it was ridiculous.
I still read the old fashioned type book or course, and both of these chairs look comfortable, but what if you do want to change positions? It looks like it'd be a pain in the ass.
…spend my life floating in a nutrient tank absorbing media with absolutely no physical exertion.

They also sell a slightly less complicated (and a few inches longer, 72 inches) plain lounger. This site offers them for $39.95, and to my location it was only $13.01 shipping.

At the moment the RSA is available online but as yet the Government has not approved RCG online so you do need to come to a classroom.

If you have any further questions let us know.

Hi Bibek,
To work in NSW bars,clubs and retaurants with alcohol you must have your RSA and in many cases also your RCG. Our Bar classes are great for anyone looking for knowledge and background to help get them work in the industry and the cocktail class gives you practical help learning the correct techniques and styles of cocktails. We cannot guarantee anyone a job as this is always up to an employer who they hire but we certainly have employers asking for us to send them staff to interview. If you have RSA and RCG you have the right Government qualifications needed to find a job along with your Bar and Cocktail as employers look upon this favourably. Hope this information helps you, we run daily classes in RSA in Sydney along with weekly classes in Chatswood and Parrmatta.

Hi Rajesh RSA or RCG
Hi Rajesh
RSA or RCG certifcates need to be processed by the Government and are generally sent the next day to your e-mail address. Certificates cannot be processed before the end of class every day this is why they cannot be given on the day.

Our courses are one day short courses, they are open to everyone.
No in NSW you get what is
No in NSW you get what is called a Competency Card that contains your picture and expires after 5 years. In other states the rules are different therefore it is valid in New South Wales only. The cost of the course covers your NSW Competency Card.

Fergie: New Solo Album Can Wait, It's Hubby Time
Although only last year, the singer-actress said of her family life, "You can be a mother and still be completely sexy ... [but] right now, I don't want anything clouding my focus," it seems she may have changed her tune.
The Dutchess recently announced that she'll be taking some time off from her career as a solo hit-maker to get in touch with her domestic side -- and hubby Josh Duhamel.
"I've got a lot on my plate and this year is more about simplifying and really paying attention to the projects that I have on my plate and spending some time with the hubby, you know?" she told Access Hollywood.
The news couldn't come sooner for Duhamel, who has been vocal in the past about wanting a large family with the Black Eyed Peas singer.
"I have always loved kids... I am happy with one, but I will take seven," the actor told OK!
While Fergie may be looking forward to spending more time at home, don't expect her to disappear from the limelight entirely -- Simon Cowell recently announced that the 'Glamourous' singer is in talks to become a judge on 'X Factor.'

St Peter's (Guernesiais: Saint Pierre), known officially as Saint Pierre du Bois (English: "St. Peter in the Wood") is a parish in Guernsey. It is the centre for the Guernsey Western Parishes which includes Torteval, St Saviour's and the Forest.
The old Guernesiais nickname for people from Saint Pierre was etcherbaots which means beetles.
The parish is located in the West of the Island and has borders with the parishes of Torteval, St. Saviour's, Forest and St. Andrew's.
The parish is mainly countryside with a small village in the centre. The parish church is one of the most unusual in the islands as it is built at the bottom of a small valley and the interior of the church is not flat but diagonal in appearance. The Parish Church is a short distance away from the western community centre usually known as "Styx".
Notable people[edit]
- Sampson Avard, the leader of a band of Mormon vigilantes called the Danites, which existed in Missouri during the period of the 1838 Mormon War.
The coastline includes:
- Rocquaine Bay
- Le Crocq du Sud
- Château du Rocquaine
- L'Erée
- Fort Saumarez
- Lihou
Le Creux es Faies neolithic passage grave can be found on the L'Eree headland. In local folk lore it is said to be one of the entrances to fairy land.

Sightseeing in Maine
In Maine, we love to show off everything our beautiful state has to offer, and we take great care in offering unique and exciting sightseeing and tour options for our visitors.
- The freedom of Maine's coast is yours to experience. Maine offers all varieties of boat tours, from Portland ferries service to the islands of Casco Bay, to sunset cruises aboard one of Camden's majestic windjammer sailboats.
- And nothing is more emblematic of Maine's coast than the more than 60 historic lighthouses scattered along it. Plan your whole trip around them, or just see a few by boat tour, but be sure to visit at least one while you're here.
- One of the most exciting parts of visiting Maine is catching a glimpse of one of the wild animals that make their home here. If you came to see a moose, black bears, puffins or whales, you'll happily discover expeditions here for that.
- If road trips are your thing, Maine is home to four National Scenic Byways: the Acadia All-American Highway, the Old Canada Road Scenic Byway, the Rangeley Lakes National Scenic Byway and the Schoodic National Scenic Byway.

A Street Car Named Desire – Summary Notes Scene 1 Scene / Atmosphere "Elysian Fields" Ironic choice of location as this is where Greek heroes went after death; this invokes the sense of irony. This is portrayed as a heaven where Blanche comes to escape everything. The description of the town; "faded", "weathered grey", "atmosphere of decay" conveys a rundown atmosphere where Blanche probably does not wish to be seen. When Blanche enters, Williams describes a "rickety outside stair" this suggests that the occupant's lives are on weak supports. The oxymoron "raffish charm" conveys the idea that the town though disreputable is charming in its own way. They enjoy a fairly easy society with an "intermingling of races" and the only problems which arise are caused by Blanche Symbolism/Motifs The blue piano playing music throughout the play is used to convey the sad, mournful moments in Blanche. These are generally critical moments in the play and usually occur when Blanche falls apart. The meat which Stanley brings home is also used as a symbol of Stanley's status in the house. Blanche describes Stanley as "a survivor of the stone age". The scene in particular sets the tone of common place brutality where the delicate, sensitive Blanche is set to enter. Another controlling motif is Blanche's aversion to light. She fears being connected with her dead husband or being closely examined. – The light exposes her real self. She prefers the illusionary world of semi- darkness. Blanche's Entrance Blanche is clearly unhappy where she is – and is constantly looking down on her surroundings. – "her appearance is incongruous to this setting". She arrives "dressed in riches" showing that what she is used to is far superior. Her "white suit" is used to convey an image of purity and innocence; however we later learn that this is only the image she wishes to convey. Not the real Blanche. The first person who meets Blanche is Eunice; however Blanche is immediately arrogant and asks her to leave. When she meets Stella "she begins to talk with feverish vivacity, as if she feared either of them to stop and think" This reveals her underlying securities, and she is afraid of Stella discovering the truth. She uses two Streetcars to arrive at Stella's home, once called desire, another called Cemetery. For Blanche there is only desire, death and the escape to Elysian Fields – her piece of heaven and fantasy. Sex, desire and death. Is she attracted towards death? As Blanche is wearing white, Williams gives her a moth like appearance, using the dress to hide her inner sins. Her actions depict the flutterings of a delicate moth. Just as a moth is attracted to the light, which consequently kills it. Blanche tries to avoid the light and when Mitch ultimately forces her into the light, her destruction begins. Blanche DuBois itself means white woods. The word 'white' is a play on innocence, while woods reveal the dark sexual prowess in her. Whereas Stella means star, and the loss of Belle Reve means the loss of a beautiful dream. Blanche's reliance on drink gives her confidence, however she claims to Stanley that "she rarely touches it" this lie is what she wishes were true. Traumatic loss of Belle Reve and her frequent encounters with death account for her current neurotic state. And Stanley's brash, crude, sexual dominance threaten to overwhelm Blanche. – His animalish attitude threatens to destroy Blanche's aristocratic roots. During their first encounter Blanche feels sick after Stanley's rough, brutal and common questions which end by hitting on the most sensitive aspect of her past life – her dead husband. Stanley likes his cards on the table and dislikes subtly and hinting. This is why he takes an immediate dislike to Blanche as he knows she has lied about the whisky. Also their names, Kowalski, and Dubois contrast. Blanche prefers the spiritual element of love, whereas Stanley goes after lust and sexual desire. Stella is his, and he is prepared to fight for her. While Blanche is economical with the truth. Scene 2 Blanche's hot baths are another way of annoying Stanley. The open and flagrant way in which she flirts with him is typical of Blanche. – This is the only way she knows to handle relationships with men. "If I didn't know you was my wife's sister" This shows Stanley's reaction towards Blanche's advances and later balances the rape. Blanche sees Stanley's world as destructive. When asked about her dead husband she replies "I hurt him in the way you would like to hurt me." This aggression towards each other shows their contempt for one another. Blanche also thinks its fitting that the aristocratic home's papers end up in Stanley's "big capable hands". His aggressive, violent nature again is shown through his rummaging through her possessions. He is not complex and lacks finesse. Blanche's equal contempt for Stanley is highlighted through "burn them afterwards". Her hesitation is shown in the dashes, which create a break in the dialogue. Here, we get the first glimpse of Blanche's insanity "Blanche's laughter ringing out once more", and "I'm sorry I must have lost myself for a moment" When she realises that she has revealed too much. There is also a recurring appearance of "hot red rods", highlighting anger. Scene 3 In the poker game, the colours which Stanley and his friends are wearing reflect the strong, macho, aggressive mood. As such Stanley's colours are the boldest, conveying a sense of power and masculinity. He uses the poker game as a sanctuary to try and forget his encounter with Blanche. His reactions "Deal", "shut up" show his blunt, forward, and dominant personality. When Blanche enters she says "Please don't get up", clearly showing that she has a high opinion of herself. However, none of the men are prepared to do so. Even Stella is shown to be angry with Stanley at this moment "It makes me so mad when he does that in front of people". Mitch is a character whom is shown in contrast to the others; he is shown to have manners "Excuse me. Please" he is educated and sensitive, which is what attracts Blanche to him. Blanche is frank with Stella as to Stanley's intelligence, but Stella, his wife, sticks up for him; "I'm sorry, but I haven't noticed the stamp of genius on even Stanley's forehead." When Stanley confronts Blanche she manages to maintains her strength, but Mitch sticks up for her. Who she later asks to cover the light bulb, this is ironic as he is the one who removes it. There is a key incident in this scene with the white radio. This is a symbol of a higher society, and when they play it, the conflict reaches its worst. "Drunk animal thing you!" this is where Stella and Stanley argue and she reveals she is pregnant. This animal brutality is foreign to Blanche and she remains puzzled at the thought of Stella returning to Stanley, but they have a sexual basis to their relationship Scene 4 + 5 This is the morning after the night before, there is a calm, peaceful atmosphere containing no evidence of events from the night before. Here, Stella tells Blanche of their wedding night, where Stanley went around smashing light bulbs with her slipper leaving her amazed. Blanche cannot believe what she is hearing as this describes such raw aggression. However, outside of the confusion, the house is tranquil. We now know, after reading the end of the play that this is the point where Blanche is rapidly approaching breakdown and beginning to let the worst of herself out. The dress which she had used to protect her in earlier scenes now has a stain on it. This ruins her and reveals how she no longer feels pure. But like everything else she makes the little things seem big, just as she over exaggerates everything. In many ways Blanche is somewhat like the streetcar; "is it still going about, even at this hour"; in that she moves around from place to place. She is very protective of her looks and doesn't want anyone to see her without her make-up. At this stage a relationship between Mitch and Blanche seems impossible, if she cannot even be honest with herself how can she hope to be honest with anyone else. In her own head she feels she has a charm of perfection. She constantly fishes for compliments, regularly seeking assurances that she is beautiful. Blanche is a definite outsider and in her attempts to show to Stella that Stanley is a beast she in fact isolates herself. In this scene we first hear of Shep Huntley, he is her fantasy escape route and can be seen as a symbol of her escape. Really, Blanche feels that Stanley is far too common and bestial, these views characterise Stanley, highlighting how utterly different he is from the kind of man which Blanche is used to. The confrontations between Blanche and Stella represent the conflicts of two different ways of life. Initially at the start of the play Stanley overheard Blanche insulting him in his own house and so is justifiably angry and is right in a way to want rid of her. Stanley is associated with power, sexual power. Stella likes Stanley's violent side; she accepts her situation and is content with her relationship. And this sexual aspect binds them both together. Scene five introduces the first signs of Stanley's plans to bring Blanche down. The young man whom she kisses seems odd at the time, but later we realise the link with her dead husband. This is also the first introduction of the Varsouviana. Scene 6 Scene six is very much a scene of hope in which we may think Blanche may succeed. We begin to wonder if she real is the innocent girl who she shows to Mitch of the woman whose past haunts her – the one discovered by Stanley. Blanche wants to be in reality the way she is with Mitch – that's who she is in her head. As such she feels that it is her duty to entertain men. Together, she and Mitch might have worked, they had much in common – both were lonely, both have dead spouses. The scene ends on a note of hope, and the blinding light of her past. This previous marriage which she is discovered to have had is the basis of all her problems. She was young and naive back then and the impact of his death means that a light has gone out in her life – is this why she f the light so much? Scene 7 In this scene Blanche starts off in the bath – calming her nerves, this way allowing her to start a fresh again after Mitch has gone. Here the playful splashes are child like; "like a child frolicking in a tub"; this depicts her regressing backwards mentally. It is seen as ironic that she is in such a good mood especially as Stanley has been working so hard in an attempt to destroy her – he feels his life is better than hers. He plans to finally rid himself of her by unveiling the truth of her deceit to Stella and eventually everyone catches on to exactly what she is. Initially Stella sticks up for her sister. Here we see the evil side of Stanley who is no longer hiding his feelings from Stella. Finally Blanche's past is revealed to the audience and we learn the truth about her. We learn of her desperation and realise why she is there 'visiting' them in the first place. Stanley feels proud of his actions. He does not need to convince himself that he is doing the right thing by telling Mitch and Stella. Towards the end of the scene the piano begins to play in "hectic breakdown" mirroring the breakdown in the relationships of the characters. When she leaves the bathroom Blanche knows that something has gone, but Stella lies to try and protect her sister from what they have learned about her. Stanley cannot tolerate illusions – he lacks sensitivity. In doing so he destroys any chance of happiness for both Blanche and his friend Mitch. Is he justifiable in his actions? Scene 8 This is the scene which tells of Blanche's birthday. It starts off relatively calm, mirroring that of the rape. However it soon becomes clear that all of the characters are putting on an artificial front to try and get along with each other. Stanley is smugly happy that Mitch has not shown – he feels that he has got one over on Blanche. He uses sarcasm to show how he knew of Blanches feelings towards him. Yet again, Stanley's aggression is portrayed through his smashing of the plate. A very sexist attitude is conveyed, he feels that he is in charge and that the women are inferior. Stella also begins to realise that Blanche's mental state is deteriorating. Stella gets angry and begins to use more formal language – showing that she too is upper class. As the two argue Stanley's language too, becomes more broken and they both begin to retract into the different social backgrounds in which they are from. Mitch's 'no show' effectively illustrates the emptiness of Blanche's life. Blanche calls Stanley a 'polack'. Stanley makes patriotic statement; "he is one hundred percent American". This conveys Blanche's naivety to other worlds besides her own. This scene also follows Stanley's cruel nature; he presents Blanche with a birthday present which initially makes her immensely happy but upon opening it and discovering it is a one way ticket to Laurel she drops and becomes totally deflated, and again the Varsouviana plays. Stanley believes that the impending arrival of the baby will bring happiness to his marriage again. Overall this is a scene of violence and tension caused by Stanley and Stella knowing that Mitch is not coming. Trapping Blanche is a situation that will equal the death of her husband. Scene 9 After the party has finished, Mitch returns to see Blanche. Blanche is feeling very low, she has been destroyed by her past being revealed. The Varsouviana plays, symbolising how her traumatic past still haunts her. Mitch enters unshaven and scruffy, Blanche puts up a front by claiming that she is offended by his appearance. She puts on a very strong front – determined to hide her depression. Mitch forces her under the light. This completely destroys her. She has now been completely revealed and has no more barriers to protect her. The flower vender is used as a symbol of the death of their relationship and reminds the audience of her husband's death. Blanche's decent into madness intensifies due to Mitch totally destroying her. This is seen as the last chance for both of them. Throwing Blanche under the light takes on many different symbolic meanings; i. Realistic – she lied about her age and now he can literally see what she really is. ii. She has constantly avoided the light since her husband died and has entered nothing but candle light. Thus symbolically she has spent most of her life in semi-darkness, and to force her into the light makes her violate her inner nature. iii. Truth of her past life, she must face up to her old ways. iv. Her whole theory of living involves magic and illusion. She does not want to face reality. She lives for "what ought to be" and not for the truth. She claims that she never lied inside herself. – She does tell the truth when she tells Mitch that she needs him. She can give herself freely to a stranger but not to someone she feels close towards like Mitch. Scene 10 This is the final conflict scene. We see that she is clearly in a deteriorated mental state. She is dressed up like a princess "crumpled white satin evening gown" this is symbolic of the dress at the beginning of the play, however now it is 'crumpled' and ruined reflecting Blanche. She talks nonsensically assuming she is in a room full of people. Her change in mood culminates in her smashing the mirror, this broken mirror can be seen as a warning – bad luck. Blanche is now constantly in a world of illusion, while Stanley is on the prowl (animal like) after the birth of his child. He seizes this moment to 'pay back' Blanche for the grief which she has caused him. The rape gives him a sense of superiority. – She almost destroyed his marriage so he has no regret in destroying her - "date from beginning". The silk pyjamas which Stanley wears during the rape scene convey a sense of elegance, softness and show someone who appears delicate. This contrasts the Stanley's rough attitude and his actions during the rape. This could be seen as the calm before the storm. It is also sadistic that these are the same pyjamas which he wore on his wedding night with Stella. Blanche herself represents old traditional ways of life, and her rape symbolises the new world destroying and annihilating the old. It is the thought of being raped by someone who represents everything she hates which sends her into her madness – not the brutality of it. During Blanche's leaving scene there are many characters on the street which represent the different aspects of Blanche; a drunk, a prostitute and a thief. Scene 11 In the final scene of the play Blanche no longer has the strength to continue. Stanley's taking down of the lantern is symbolic of him taking his home back. Stanley comforts Stella the only way he can – sexually – even after raping her sister. The poker game is the final act, symbolising that life is a game of chance. Blanche came in or her last chance and lady luck has not shone on her. This poker game is much more subdued than the one earlier one in the play. Now Stanley is winning – just as he has won in getting rid of Blanche. Compared to the one played during Blanche's entrance where Stanley was losing. She talks of being buried at sea, we wonder if this is a connection to her constant bathing in which case being constantly surrounded by water would mean that she would be eternally clean. Again the Varsouviana is playing until the sound of the gun shot and then it starts all over again. Stella sends her to the asylum, she does not want to believe her sister and this way she can remove the problem and continue on with her life. However, when the doctor arrives reality dawns on her, but by then its too late. Blanche happily leaves with the doctor "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers" – highlighting how easily taken in by people who are nice to her and treat her with attention and affection. Almost all strangers have sympathy. Stanley takes the lantern, a final blow for Blanche.

Medicare, ACA care and how to navigate during enrollment
CHICAGO (Reuters) – This is enrollment season for two huge public health insurance programs: Medicare and the Affordable Care Act health insurance exchanges. For older Americans, the overlapping sign-up periods can lead to confusion and enrollment errors.
Insurers offering Medicare and ACA policies have big money at stake, and consumers are subject to a blizzard of marketing messages. Annual enrollment for Medicare prescription drug (Part D) and Advantage (Part C) plans began Oct. 15 and runs until Dec. 7; shopping for healthcare policies in the marketplace exchanges created under the ACA began Nov. 15 and ends Feb. 15.
Five takeaways on retirement from the midterm elections
CHICAGO (Reuters) – Retirement policy wasn't on the ballot in last week's midterm elections. But the new political landscape could threaten the retirement security of middle-class households.
With Republicans in full control of Congress, expect efforts to cut Social Security and Medicare benefits. And more Republican-controlled statehouses mean more efforts to curtail state and local workers' pension plans. One positive note: Congress and the White House could find common ground on some promising ideas to encourage retirement saving.
The biggest surprises in retirement? The experts weigh in
CHICAGO (Reuters) – The Great Recession served up some nasty financial surprises to people approaching retirement – the housing crash, job loss and shrunken 401(k)s, for starters.
But retirement can bring lifestyle surprises, too. It's one of life's biggest transitions, and a major leap into the unknown. Hoping to lessen the guesswork for people who aren't there yet, I asked experts who work with people transitioning to retirement about the surprises they hear about most often.
Conquering fear, finding purpose: The secrets of an encore career
PHOENIX (Reuters) – "You must do the thing you cannot do," Eleanor Roosevelt once wrote. It's the only way to overcome the fears we all face in doing something new, she thought, and take a leap into the unknown.
Kate Williams quoted Roosevelt earlier this week here when she accepted a $25,000 Purpose Prize, one of the awards given annually by Encore.org, a San Francisco-based nonprofit that works to engage baby boomers in "encore careers" with a social impact. The awards, now in their ninth year, recognize trailblazers over age 60 who have tackled social problems creatively and effectively. Cash prizes range from $25,000 to $100,000.
The COLA crunch: Why Social Security isn't keeping up with seniors' costs
CHICAGO, Oct 23 (Reuters) – Social Security's annual
inflation adjustment is one of the program's most valuable
features. But it's time to adjust the adjustment.
Retirees will get a 1.7 percent bump in their Social
Security benefit next year, according to the Social Security
Administration, which announced the annual cost-of-living
adjustment (COLA) on Wednesday. Recipients of disability
benefits and Supplemental Security Income also will receive the
Beware: Some Medicare Advantage plans have plenty of disadvantages
CHICAGO (Reuters) – Seniors have flocked to Medicare Advantage in recent years, attracted by savings on premiums and the convenience of one-stop shopping. But as the annual Medicare enrollment season began this week, a memorandum from federal officials to plan providers surfaced that serves as a big red warning flag.
The upshot: Assess the quality of any Advantage plan before you sign up.
The memorandum, first reported by the New York Times, described ongoing compliance problems uncovered in federal audits of Advantage and prescription drug plans. These include inadequate rationales for denial of coverage, failure to consider clinical information from doctors and failure to notify patients of their rights to appeal decisions. The audits also uncovered problems with inappropriate rejection of prescription drug claims.
Shining a light on a murky election-year Social Security debate
CHICAGO (Reuters) – In North Carolina, a television ad attacks incumbent Democratic Senator Kay Hagan for supporting a "controversial plan" that "raises the retirement age" for Social Security. The ad comes from Crossroads GPS, the super PAC run by Republican Karl Rove.
A Republican attack on a Democrat for cutting Social Security benefits? It's just one instance where voters are hearing confusing claims about Social Security reform. Social Security has surfaced as a major issue in Senate rates in Alaska, Colorado, Iowa and Arkansas.
Why it pays to pore over your Medicare drug plan – every year
CHICAGO (Reuters) – Your Medicare prescription drug plan sent you a letter recently. Chances are, you didn't read it – and that could be costing you money.
Health insurance companies must send an annual notice of changes for the coming year to Part D prescription drug and Part C Medicare Advantage plans. The notice, which must be delivered to you by Sept. 30 each year, details changes in premiums and co-pays, and lets you know whether your medication will be covered in the year ahead.
It happens: Seniors with student debt – and smaller Social Security checks
CHICAGO (Reuters) – It's a rude awakening for a growing number of seniors: They file for Social Security, then discover that the federal government plans to take part of their benefit to pay off delinquent student loans, tax bills, child support or alimony.
This month the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) released findings on the problem of rising student debt burdens among retirees – and how the government goes after delinquent borrowers by going after wages, tax refunds and Social Security checks.
Extreme retirement abroad: How one footloose couple sees the world
CHICAGO (Reuters) – For Americans looking to retire abroad, deciding where to live can be a challenge. But Lynne and Tim Martin took that question off the table by deciding to retire everywhere and anywhere.
In 2011 the couple opted for what might be called extreme retirement abroad: They sold their Paso Robles, California, home, jettisoned all but a few treasured possessions and became nomads.

And since I'm just too darned impatient to wait that long I thought I'd ask if there's a way to get one sent to me. So if anyone knows do tell.

Okay, so let me get this straight....The Discovery Center (my script) donations are embezzeled, the St. Isidore's Church is subject to embezzelment, and my donations years ago to the "performing arts center" north of St Isidore's were also taken by crooks. Bottom line, there are criminals in our neighborhoods that live off of our generous nature. As John Lennon said..."instant karma gonna get you"...give generously but wisely....

text: Should be a good fight. "Silky Smooth" is a slick boxer who has a durable chin, but when pressed hard he tends to cover up and not throw much. Carcamo, is a strong puncher who is likely much under-rated based on his record which shows, I think, five losses. He literally demolished Neequaye and Joel Diaz, Carcamo's trainer says they will break Silky down by going to his body. They are confident Carcamo will beat Silky. Wish I could be there live to watch this fight. Also the Russian Petrov is going to kick some serious butt as well.Posted March 20, 2014 12:51 pm

54 year old man | Tucson, AZ, USA | Seeking women 40-53 within 100 miles
Wanted....A Partner in Crime
I'm looking for a cute, college educated (at least some), cook, conservative, Christian, considerate/compromising and committed to a long term relationship. This is what I call the 7-C's. As for what to expect, chivalry with a mix of bad boy; after all, I do have a wild streak that takes over at times – it's a guy thing. I'm not a perfectionist. For example, if you are looking for perfect grammar in this narrative – I'm not your guy. I firmly believe in forgive and forget. I have a lot to offer the right woman, but as we all know, chemistry is everything. I am particularly attracted to a woman who is "feminine" and wants to be the "girl." But she must be strong and willing to make decisions that are in the best interest of both of "us." I firmly believe it is a "team effort" and anything short of that is not going to work. I believe in physical touch; holding hands, PDA, kissing, touching, and or course ,etc. I'm looking the adventurous type that is willing to walk into a restaurant they have never been in order something they have never eaten before. I look forward to the FIRECRACKER that answers .... You're a handful and I welcome it! Lastly, I am going state some thing I have seen in quite a few women's profiles...I am marriage bound. If you are not marriage oriented, then tell me.
Movies/Videos , Playing sports , Watching sports
Golf, Hockey, Running, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I like Dogs
Dogs are cool.
The thought of having a partner in crime is exciting. You will never have to be perfect, but you will have to be committed to the relationship. As a matter of fact, the more perfect you are, then I believe I would not get along with you.
BBQ, going swimming, Golf, shooting.
Golf Hockey Running

Having Fun the Halal Way: Entertainment in Islam
<< Continue Shopping
| Code: RP32
Price: $5.95
By: Abu Muawiyah Ismail Kamdar
Pages: 109
Binding: Paperback
Size: 5.6x8.5" (14.5x21.5 cm)
Edition: 1st (2011)
Publisher: IIPH

|Inventory: ~13 in stock
With the advent of technology, the entertainment industry has flourished and become immensely popular. Combine this with the exponential advances in technology, and the result is an increasing number of ways to amuse ourselves. As a result of such advances, Muslims react in a variety of manners towards entertainment. Some label entertainment as completely forbidden. This sometimes includes parents who say no to almost everything that their young ones deem to be 'fun', without providing them with suitable alternatives. Others, who do not want to take this extreme approach, fall into the trap of excessive use of and even addiction to various sources of entertainment, without any limits.
In Having Fun the Halal Way, Ismail Kamdar explores the teachings of Islam regarding entertainment. Drawing upon the Quran, the Sunnah and the understanding of the righteous scholars of Islam, he provides a detailed and balanced analysis of the topic. He not only explains the detriments of the current entertainment industry, but also suggests alternative means to have a good time with friends and family members.
About the author:
Abu Muawiyah Ismail Kamdar began his study of Islam at the age of thirteen. In 2006, he completed a seven-year Islamic scholarship at a Darul Uloom college. In his quest for the truth and authentic Islamic knowledge, he continued studying Islam and learned from scholars from a variety of schools of Islamic thought. His most notable teacher is Dr. Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips. Abu Muawiyah currently works as a tutorial assistant in Aqeedah, Fiqh, Arabic and Tafsir in the BAIS program at the Islamic Online University and as an Arabic Tutor.
Reviewer: Claudia from Staten Island, United States on 12/09/2013
The name of the book should be the haram activities perform today!!! Almost the hole book it's about the activities that are consider haram and a breve list of the halal ways. I'm not saying that is a bad book, but I was expecting the complete book full of halal ways to please Allah swa and have fun in Dunia rather than a bunch of prohibitions that all pios Muslims are already aware. The options that the book gives are cool indeed, but personally I was expecting more. ASSALAM-O-ALAIKUM

Urban Dictionary Find: Emo…
I know I'm not the first person to be confused and amazed with the trend of dudes wearing their sister's pants, along with the rest of their trademark fashion decisions. The good folks over at urbandictionary.com have created a place where the average Joe can help the masses understand 'cool' kids slang from the safety of the internet. Sometimes the definitions are pretty damn funny. Check out some of the entries for 'Emo' that fall into that category:
Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle.
::sniff sniff:: "The Demise of the Siberian Traintracks of Our Rusty Forgotten Unblemished Love" sounds like it would make a great emo band name. ::cry:
Punk music on estrogen. Often acoustic guitar with soft, high male vocals that dwell exessively on the singer's feelings, especially melancholy remembrances of past relationships/mistakes in life. A form of music that diverged from punk in the '80s, the name "emo" is derived from the emotive style of the lyrics and music. This genre has lately been marketed heavily by the music industry to teenagers with bands such as Dashboard Confessional and Taking Back Sunday, and has seen much commercial and mainstream success. The music has also spawned a subculture which conforms to certain conventions in dress such as tight sweatshirts, tight band T-shirts and horn-rim glasses. Adherents profess to exessively melancholy temperments. Males that adhere to the emo subculture are sometimes confused with metrosexuals; indeed the line between the two is somwhat blurred, though both groups claim to be intouch with their emotional side. The ephemeral and hackneyed nature of emo songwriting suggests that its audience will be restricted largely to teenagers. the genre suffers from a lack of credibility outside the aforementioned demographic group, much like current Nu Metal bands.
girlfriend: C'mon, lets have sex.
boyfriend: I'm too sad to have sex.
girlfriend: I'm sad too; lets have sex and cry.
boyfriend: I'm already crying.
Hehehe…'punk music on estrogen'. Nice.

Fast food would be inevitable on a three week trip, but we really tried our best to avoid it when possible... hence the reason a quarter of the car was filled with snacks and a cooler.

Relaxing by the pool outside with a glass of chilled wine. Lunch was tasty. My massage was great, very relaxing. The whole experience was a pleasure.
We had a tour of the whole of David Lloyd Farnham at the end of our day. It all looks great, if you can afford it. Negatives - we couldn't get calls answered. Or returned when we left messages. It took us ages to be able to fix it all up. Also there were no Friday or weekends available - we both took a day off work at cost to ourselves. Too few loos and showers in the Spa area. At times there were queues.

The wide range of spa experiences. So many saunas and steam rooms. There was so much space, we did not feel crowded in at all.
Very pleasant and helpful staff

The latest archival media I use for fine art prints is far thicker and has more weight than in years past. My old trimmer would often make unacceptable cuts on the thicker media. This Trimmer handles 300 gsm and heavier papers with ease. The cuts are clean and crisp.
