Are you a community manager?
Before you say no, know this: If you're the one running any of your business' social media outlets then you, my friend, are indeed a community manager. Yep. You're welcome.
A community manager is the person monitoring and engaging on behalf of a company. A lot of the people who do this don't have an official title. You may have been the only one with the interest, time, skill set, or personality to take it on. You may be running a small business in which this is one of many roles you take on in addition to everything else you do.
However you got here, you're someone special. If you've taken on the community manager role and also have another position or role in the company, you're what I like to call a hybrid. Or, if you'd rather, a unicorn.
A day in the life of a hybrid
What exactly does a hybrid do? The role and responsibilities depend on the company, its size, and the freedom the company allows the community manager to have.
I'm a pretty good example of a how a hybrid/unicorn comes into existence. I work at a web marketing company as a "social media strategist." Developing and implementing strategies is what I was hired to do for our clients, so it's a natural extension to do the same thing for the company.
In my hybrid role, I develop goals, strategies and ideas for each social outlet. I help plan the company's blog posts, come up with clever headlines that integrate keywords for SEO and
demand ask people in the office to tweet. I engage on behalf of the Mack Web Team on Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, and more.
Although my job led naturally into community, other community manager hybrids may start out as anSEO, blogger, marketing specialist, graphic designer, business owner, etc. If you have the skills or desire to be a community manager, hop on the hybrid train.
How does one manage both clients (or design, or payroll, or whatever else) and community? It's not easy having more than one significant role at work, but it is possible. Here are some guidelines I've leaned on to help manage the load.
Follow a plan
Having a strategy for each social outlet that aligns with company goals is numero uno. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. To make life easier on everyone, think realistically and leverage assets that have already been developed for your company.
For instance, articles on the company website can be reworked and turned into blog posts with images and video. An upcoming event can have a social campaign built around it in order to gain more excitement and exposure.
Keep an open mind
As a community manager you'll see lots of new ideas that could turn into great opportunities for your company's online engagement. Keep company goals in mind while engaging and you may find yourself helping out in all kinds of areas – from link building opportunities to ideas for content – just by listening to conversation happening on social media outlets.
Your main job comes first
As a hybrid, your main job is…well, your main job, and community management comes after that. The company you work for won't need a community if it goes out of business. If you work with clients, remember that they're the bread and butter (and bacon). Ever heard the saying, "Happy wife, happy life"? There should be a similar mantra for your company: "Happy client, happy boss." Wait, that doesn't rhyme. But you get the idea. If you need help prioritizing, meet with your manager or boss and ask them to clarify your responsibilities.
Be organized
In a recent My Community Manager hangout on Google+ about skills a community manager needs, organization was deemed a must-have. This is important because it helps with time management (and sanity). Luckily for you, there are plenty of tools that make a hybrid's life easier. If you're not already using them, try some of these.
1. Harvest
Set a budget and track your time per task with a tool like Harvest. This is vital to keeping your time and efforts in perspective. Otherwise it's too easy to get lost in the business of monitoring your community. This may also serve as great ammunition if you need to prove to your boss that more time is needed in your schedule to handle the role of community manager.
2. Trello
Trello is a collaboration tool that organizes projects on a board. This is a great visual tool that has boxes to check off upon a task's completion.
Trello also allows users to have ownership in specific areas of a project. For instance, community managers may need art created for a Facebook cover photo, so the graphic design artist can be assigned to that project (just drag their avatar to the task).
Due dates are optional additions on Trello, and it's easy to upload the assets that are created around the project so that everything's in one place.
3. Raven Tools
Raven Tools has a lot to offer community managers. For one thing, the metrics tools are great. Even if you think analytics have nothing to do with community management, cross-knowledge is a must for hybrids. Plus it's good to know how your posts are doing, which days are performing best, which types of posts are creating engagement, and who is mentioning you.
Community managers also have an advantage in helping link builders out because they are so active in the community. Take advantage of Raven's link building tools and help a brother or sister out with some lead and link generation.
4. Google Calendar
Use Google Calendar to schedule blog post production, set reminders of upcoming events, update team members on ETA of design assets or just keep yourself on task. You can also schedule time for engagement and plan when to pull analytics (remember the very important manage-your-time-and-retain-your-sanity plan?)
5. Social media dashboard
A social media dashboard comes in handy for those who work with multiple social media accounts. You can use a dashboard's stream to monitor and engage in one place rather than logging in to each outlet. Use Raven's social media tools or social-specific tools like Sprout Social or HootSuite. Recently, HootSuite introduced a Google+ stream.
6. Inspiration Checklist
Develop an inspiration checklist to help you to kick ass at your job. It does wonders for me, so check out the video to get my suggestions.
7. Songza
Last but not least is Songza.com, a tool introduced to me by Shareholic's Ginny Soskey in her post 10 tools to help you blog better. It's a music concierge that provides users with great playlists. It helps to have music get you in the right mood.
And finally…
Have a sense of humor
It's the final step of the manage-your-time-and-keep-your-sanity plan. As a hybrid, you're going to be busy. Try to enjoy the awesomeness of managing a community on behalf of your company.
Good luck, fellow hybrids.
June Macon is the social media strategist and community manager at Mack Web Solutions in Fort Collins, Colo. Put a smile on her face by following her on Twitter @junemackweb.

Allstate Life Insurance
As the nation's largest publicly held personal lines insurer, Allstate has a history that spans more than eight decades.
The company was originally founded in 1931 by Sears, Roebuck & Co. and exclusively offered automobile insurance for nearly the first two decades of its existence. In 1952, Allstate added personal liability insurance and has since expanded its services to include a variety of consumer and business insurance and financial products.
In addition, the company can lay claim to innovating services within the insurance and automotive industries. During the 1930s, Allstate became one of the first companies to use a more advanced rate classification method for determining premiums. It was also involved in the push toward mandatory seatbelts use in the 1960s and encouraged the use of air bags in later years.
In 1993, Allstate became a publicly traded company under the stock symbol ALL. In 1995, it became independent of parent company Sears. The company has 70,000 affiliated professionals, including 38,000 directly employed workers, who help provide service to 16 million households in the U.S. and Canada.

LINCOLN — There was a time in Rhode Island when parents of school age children needed to tune in radio personality Salty Brine for word on whether there would be school on wintery morning.
Those days are over and High School Principal Kevin J. McNamara now has a number of ways to get the word out about school events and weather including his school's Listserv option of directly emailing parents timely school updates.
Parents who sign a form listing their student's name, grade, and their email address can receive an email from McNamara's office on various school topics and upcoming events that they might wish to attend.

I finished an astonishing book this weekend.
I had not really planned to read The Sense of an Ending. I knew of its author, Julian Barnes, and knew he had become well-respected in literary circles. However, I just was browsing our new book section one afternoon and saw the book, noted it was quite slender, and decided to try it.
The Sense of an Ending is beautifully written and hauntingly difficult to put out of your mind. It highlights for the reader what repercussions can echo through decades of time and relationships from one simple, angry action. It is a meditation on memory and on how we manipulate our recall of the past to paint ourselves in the best possible light. Its ending is nothing short of shocking. I found myself compelled to re-read whole sections of the book after I completed it the first time, in part just to see if I could have foreseen the end. It reminded me of Atonement by Ian McEwan.
This is not easy reading, but it is a book that will bear fruit for you long after you finish it. I recommend it.
I also want to announce that we are beginning a series of book discussions around the theme Places in the Heart. These will take place on the second Thursday of each month in the meeting room of the Chatham library. The books to be discussed are Empire Falls by Richard Russo; A River Runs Through It by Norman Maclean; Brothers and Keepers by John Edgar Wideman; Plainsong by Kent Haruf; and Gilead by Marilynn Robinson. Empire Falls will be discussed on April 12. All these books are readily available through both online booksellers and bricks-and-mortar stores. If you want to participate, but need help getting a copy of the book, please let us know at email@example.com.

Last fall, Dell acquired Quest Software to enhance its software portfolio of complete end-to-end IT solutions for its customers.
As part of this acquisition, Quest's public sector subsidiary now bolsters Dell's ability to serve federal, state and local governments and education institutions with software tools that help with data center optimization, application performance management (APM), identity and access management, and virtualization management.
FedPulse spoke to Paul Christman, Vice President, Public Sector, Dell Software, about the acquisition and what the future holds for Dell. Christman formerly served as the President and CEO of Quest's public sector subsidiary.
FedPulse: Tell us about Quest's public sector subsidiary.
Christman: Quest Software has had a dedicated public sector division for over 10 years and formed a public sector subsidiary 5 years ago. Dell acquired Quest in late September 2012. Quest's team is now the core of the Dell's software organization. Working with the other software groups within Dell we can offer end-to-end IT solutions to our customers.
Key government IT trends we address include data center consolidation, cloud computing, big data, and BYOD. Underlying all of these trends is the need for regulatory compliance and risk management. Within these areas, our software reduces risk, accelerates results and supports mission goals for government customers.
FedPulse: Tell us about Dell's acquisition of Quest, and how the acquisition enhances Dell's overall government IT capabilities.
Christman: As a company, Dell is going through a transformation. Building upon its foundation in personal computers and servers, acquisitions like that of Quest are enhancing Dell's portfolio to include networking, services and software solutions.
Quest offers the software that ties all of these solutions together in a cost-effective and unified way, providing complete, end-to-end enterprise offerings.
FedPulse: How do these types of acquisitions help larger technology providers, like Dell?
Christman: Dell is already one of the largest technology suppliers to the government, but our customers are asking us to do more than just supply great hardware. Our customers are also looking to reduce the number of vendors they deal with to eliminate complexity. This trend is driving Dell to develop more complete enterprise service offerings. Quest's software portfolio is a logical addition given Dell's long-term strategy.
FedPulse: What are some of government's key challenges that you are addressing now?
Christman: Currently agencies are dealing with challenges including budget issues and sequestration. Our solutions align well with customer needs to extend technology lifecycles and utilization.
For many agencies, technology and data is at the core foundation of their missions. Adopting technologies that accelerate results, reduce risk and enhance efficiencies is the right thing to do for government agencies, regardless of the budget situation.
FedPulse: In an era of austere government, how can your solutions help agencies achieve mission goals with fewer resources?
Christman: Our country's public servants know they still have a responsibility to accomplish their agencies' missions. This will involve creatively using the right solutions, which is why Dell's approach to providing complete end-to-end offerings and reducing total cost of ownership is vital right now.
State and local governments have been dealing with budget issues for years and now it is the federal government's turn. Agency missions will continue to be accomplished and government will remain a gigantic enterprise. We will need to be creative and nimble in support of mission requirements.
Dell currently serves more than 15 million government and education end-users and looks forward to providing the right solutions in emerging areas like Big Data, BYOD and virtualization. These foundational technologies will continue advancing agency missions, even in today's challenging budget climate.
We would like to thank Paul for sharing his insights into Dell's enhanced software offerings for the federal government. To learn more about Dell's public sector business, click here.

Since the dawn of civilization, people have been building tunnels for accessing tombs or underground quarries, or in the hill slopes for allowing the flow of water from porous rocks. Romans were skilled tunnel builders, who made several kilometers long underground passages using the work of slaves. They made a 5.6 km (3.5 mi) long tunnel for draining the Fucino Lake, east of Rome. The project, aimed for impeding the flooding of the area, required the work of 30,000 people for 10 years.
Modern construction of tunnels started in the 1760's in England, when channels were constructed for inner transport. If hills were in the way, the top could be overcome by modifying it in platforms and building of locks, so that ships reached the next level. This method depended on a good alimentation with water to the top, as water descended through the system each time locks were used. That's why the first channels tended to eschew hills, making the journeys very long and therefore the technique of building tunnels through the versants emerged.
In 1825, the opening of the Stockton Rail Way and Darlington, England, founded a new era in transports. The knowledge got through making the channel tunnels was soon applied in digging railway tunnels. By then, most of the work was done manually, and the dug material was removed using horses. For constructing long tunnels, wells were made along the route, so that work could be started in several places, reducing the time for ending the project.
One of the first under river tunnels was built beneath the Thames River (London): the Rotherhithe Tunnel, connecting Rotherhithe and Wapping. Digging started in 1825, but a great flow of water and mud delayed the ending of the job until 1843.
The first idea of a tunnel under the English Channel was advanced by the French engineer Albert Mathieu in 1802, but work started as late as the end of 1870's, using a machine for excavating tunnels. But the work was stopped in 1882, as the British feared a French invasion through the tunnel. Excavations restarted in 1973, but were stopped by 1975 due to a rapid increase of the costs. The work was resumed by the end of 1980's and finished in 1994. Now the EuroTunnel ensures a link between France and England in both directions through railway and vehicles.
Before building a tunnel, detailed ground analyses and probe drills are made. Past movements of the ground could have perturbed and crashed rocks even in regulated formations. Rock crevices not only make the digging more difficult, but the tunnel can experience sudden and incontrollable infusions of water during the construction, especially if it's deep or built under water.
Sometimes, small exploration tunnels are made near the main route of the tunnel, so that the rock layers can be checked and investigated, but currently, the builders use to drill just a little further from the main front of the tunnel for testing eventual signs of possible problems.
Small tunnels are excavated generally using tunnel digging machines with a simple rotative head. Larger tunnels are carved using a road header, having a cutting rotative head on a spire with hydraulic command, which allows it to reach all the parts of the tunnel's front.
Tunnels dug in stone are excavated through perforation and dynamiting. The roof of the tunnel can be left unsustained for a while, but the tension readjusting amongst small rocks can cause stone collapses, that's why bolstering is ensured soon after excavation. A common method is the use of steel vaults sheathed with wood. Instead, reinforced concrete can be used, or concrete can be pulverized on the rocks. Some rock formations are so strong (that) they do not require bolstering.
Tunnels dug in soft ground require bolstering as close as possible to their front, to avoid collapse. One technique is to advance 60 cm (2 ft) with the front, and then place a sustentation ring made of cast iron or concrete. Alternatively, moisturized concrete can be applied, and temporary steel bolsters can be fixed until hardening.
The method of the immersed tube is used especially in the case of undersea tunnels. On the surface, tunnel portions are made and then sunk into a dredge groove. Articulations between the sections are then tightened to make them resistant to water and then the construction is covered by sand. Then, water is pumped out of the tunnel so that inner works can start. This method was employed for example in the case of the tunnel connecting Hong Kong to Kowloon (mainland China).
The world's longest tunnel (54 km or 32 mi) connects the Japanese islands Honshu and Hokkaido, under the Tsugaru Strait. It consists in a larger railway tunnel and two smaller road tunnels, also employed for maintenance, draining and ventilation.
The EuroTunnel (under the English Channel) is 50 km (30 mi) long and each of its twin tunnels are 7.6 m (25 ft) wide. It was built with an average speed of 12 cm (5 in) per minute.

BETHESDA, Md. (WUSA) -- Vitamins, whole grain, fiber, heart healthy; these buzz words are very appealing to rushed shoppers trying to make good food choices. However, local food coach Vianesa Vargas ofcapitalfoodcoaching.comsays the words that really matter are not on the front of the package.
Vargas says, "As a smart consumer you need to understand that when you're purchasing a product you're purchasing a lot of other ingredients in there, you might think you are getting a healthy food but it's a health food."
"Look at the ingredients label, this is where you are going to find the truth about your food," adds Vargas.
She notes a Chef Boyardeepasta Beefaroniproduct that promotes whole grain pasta.What is added to a cup ofthis processed food is more than 30 percent of the sodium intake that should be consumed in a day, and that is only half of the size of the can.
Vargas gives a simple test: look for foods in which the milligrams of sodium on the label are an even ration with the calories per serving. Otherwise your sodium intake will be too high.
Next, Vargas points to Vitamin water.The American Heart Association recommends a daily allowance of 25 to 38 grams of sugar a day. A 20 ounce bottle of Vitamin Water contains 31 grams of sugar per bottle.Vargas says take a multivitamin instead and stick to plain water.
"You can flavor your own water.You can use a little bit of grapes, frozen grapes in your water, cold apples, whatever you care for." adds Vargas.
Moving on to the smoothies, Vargas recommends homemade smoothies instead of most smoothie packages in the store. She notes a particular Concord Foods Banana smoothie that has a bunch of extra ingredients.
Vargas says, "This is nothing but filler.This is nothing but extra sugar, corn syrup solids and xanthum gum. What's xanthum gum? You don't get that in a smoothie from mom."
Popchips are better than fried and baked chips, but Vargas says people need to really pay attention to the serving sizes on the back of the bag. A 3 ounce bag contains3 servings.
Reading labels is essential. Vargas reminds us all to knowwhat you are purchasing even with healthy branded foods. She advises consumers to sayslook for whole foods (chicken,whole grains, produce)instead of processed advertised health foods and you won't go wrong.

London attractions: Sit back and relax on a Thames River Cruise
Published: Monday 20th of May 2013
The Thames river is one of the most famous of its kind and therefore it is not really surprising that it is one of the most popular hotspots among cruisers looking for things to do in London.
One of the best ways to see the capital is to hop aboard the Thames River Cruise, which glides by other famous attractions such as the site of the Cutty Sark and the Tate Modern.
The cruise itself was actually established in 1974 and used to feature just one boat, which would take guests on short rides between Caversham and Mapledurham.
Nowadays however, it crosses the paths of all the major London attractions and includes a full range of dining options on board, complete with karaoke parties, live music and discos.
The boats are designed to go out in all types of weather and really allow visitors to see a side of London that they may never have experienced before.
This attraction is suitable for all ages and tastes with entertainment for the entire family. Guests are also given the option of taking group bookings and making reservations when necessary.
Get free entry to over 55 top London attractions with a London Pass.

Energy efficiency improvements coming to five rec centers
Green means more to the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) than the ideal color of lawns and trees. Green also means practicing environmental sustainability – Living Green. The MPRB leads by example when it comes to green living. Organic gardening techniques are being implemented at Longfellow Gardens. The Rec Plus childcare program uses reusable plates, bowls, cups and flatware. The Minneapolis Bike Tour uses tap water instead of bottled water, and composts food waste.
The latest example is a pilot project to implement enhancements at five recreation centers. The McKinstry Energy Efficiency Project, which was recently approved by the MPRB Board of Commissioners, will set in motion improvements to the Lake Nokomis, Logan, Matthews, McRae and Pershing recreation centers.

Dr. Zev M. Kahn's Ratings
One of the better doctors that I've come across. He has very good "bedside manners". Dr. Kahn listens to your problems, takes time to answer them in detail, does not hurry you to attend to the next patient, tested me and explains thoroughly the problem I had and options for my issues. The office accommodated my request for an earlier appointment when they initially set it at a later date. My ears were bothering me and having an earlier appointment was a relief. Overall, a very good experience. His "customer service" is excellent.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][765075].votes_count ]]
I think Dr. Kahn has the patient's interest at heart. However, my impression is that anything beyond ear cleaning or a basic diagnosis is a little more than he would like to undertake.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][765074].votes_count ]]
Dr. Kahn is the only physician that I will trust my ears to. He is full of experience and many practical areas and bends over backwards to serve his patients. He even gave me his home phone number when I had a particularly nasty ear infection. He loves his work and is always looking for new methods to improve results.

(Feb 17, 2011) It was reported on February 11, 2011, that the Mongolian Parliament has approved legislation on mining, initiated by the country's President, Tsakhia Elbegdorj, extending the term of application of the law on temporary suspension of new mineral exploration licenses for another couple of months, to April 30, 2011. A draft version of the law had initially proposed an extension until July 15, 2011. (No Mineral Exploration License Issuance Till April 30, THE UB POST (Feb. 15, 2011),http://ubpost.mongolnews.mn/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&a
mp;id=5773&Itemid=40.) The temporary measures are being applied until a new law on the issuance of mining licenses in Mongolia is adopted. (See Wendy Zeldin, Mongolia: Issuance of Mining Licenses Temporarily Suspended Pending Adoption of New Law, GLOBAL LEGAL MONITOR (May 18, 2010), http://www.loc.gov/lawweb/servlet/WLB?disp3_1982_text.)
Since the 1990s, the country's Mineral Resources Authority has reportedly issued some 4,000 exploration licenses and 1,000 mining licenses, but despite the high number of the former, Mongolia has only about a dozen large mining operations. Civic groups have called on the government to regulate mining activities more tightly to combat environmental degradation; as a result, the authorities are cracking down on illegal ventures, and the Mongolian Parliament may adopt a stricter licensing law. The National Statistical Office of Mongolia is quoted as stating that in 2010, 98% of the country's total exports were from the mining sector. (Mongolia Passes Law Temporarily Banning Mining Exploration Permit, CHINA DAILY (Feb. 14, 2011), http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/xinhua/2011-02-14/content_1771852.html.)

HCPCS codes must be used when billing Medicare carriers.

If you are like me (and I know I am) then you like to use one pack for everything (day hike, week long hike, hauling groceries from store, hauling gym gear back and forth, etc.)Small amounts (say 5 lbs) carried in a 3000 cubic inch pack, however, will often jiggle and jostle around. I've experimented with various ways to temporarily reduce the volume of a large pack so small loads will ride securely (e.g. straps, drawstrings, bunji cords, etc.) Here's my latest effort and, so far, my favorite.The back bag of this pack is sewn like a 2 foot wide by 3 foot tall envelope. A 2' X 3' piece of fairly stiff 3/8" blue foam is inside the pack. When the pack is empty the foam keeps the envelope fairly flat and reduces volume to near zero. As I fill the pack the foam bends and increases volume as required. The six photo's shown here show 2 views each of empty pack, pack with 5 lbs of stuff and fully filled pack.
Edited by lyrad1 on 02/18/2012 17:04:13 MST.
Daryl,Since you are going to carry your sleeping pad anyway, why not put to work. It is a simple lightweight solution. Although I am partial to a modular (tube Or luxury lite), this seems like it would work. Does the pack catch the wind when empty - sail effect. Is it floppy? Dave
Dave,The blue foam pad is part of what I sleep on. I just leave it in the pack and sleep on the pack.The empty pack probably would catch the wind and flop around a bit. Without wind it is fairly stiff and doesn't flop around. I wouldn't be hiking with an empty pack. I just included the photo so people could see the actual shape of the envelope like back bag. Maybe I could enlarge the pack and use it to jump off cliffs? The empty pack might also scare away bears because it makes me look bigger and a little like a hooded cobra.Daryl
Daryl,You've invented a new sport - pack jumping - now everyone is going to copy your design. You just need a few mind numbed MTV'ers to be your test subjects. Seriously now, you make a good point. Depending on how you pack the inside of your pack - you have eliminated the need for external compression mechanisms. I could see that if you used a tri-folded pad, you could use it in different configurations to contain your gear. I like the "outsideness of the boxness" of this site.Dave

A bird bath is a classic way to bring a decorative touch to your garden and attract local birds at the same time. Most common is the pedestal style bird bath made of cast stone, ceramic, metal, or resin. You'll also find a great selection of hanging bird baths, tiered styles, deck-mounted options, and more. Place your bird bath in a spot where you'll be able to enjoy the activity, and if it's a fountain bird bath you'll need to place it near a power source. Or, consider a solar powered bird bath and all you'll need is plenty of direct sun.
To keep the birds coming back, change the water as often as possible and scrub the basin with a stiff brush once a week to eliminate algae and other debris. Fountain bird baths stay fresher a little longer because of the circulating water. You can even add a water pump to a standard bird bath and get the same effect. The flowing water attracts the birds, creates a soothing trickle, and reduces algae and mosquitos. Consider other perks, like a heater, to keep the water comfortable in the cooler months.

With interest rates still hovering near all-time lows, and property values in many places improving but still far below 2007 highs, investing in real estate may seem like a smart move — especially for anyone squeamish about investing in the stock market. (A whopping 76% of consumers are saying no to equities, according to Bankrate's latest Financial Security Index.)
But new mortgage lending rules, which went into effect Jan. 1, will have a direct impact on many of these investors' plans. Credit requirements have tightened, in some cases dramatically, and lenders are now also looking at the number of leveraged properties an investor owns — not just the equity of those homes — before lending any more cash for any purpose.
Here's what you need to know if you're going to borrow to invest in real estate:
•The new mortgage rules were drawn up by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, created following the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010. Some new regulations are designed to protect homeowners from lender and mortgage-service abuses. But others are designed to ensure that borrowers won't have trouble making their mortgage payments by taking on more debt than they can handle.
•The new rules don't affect the vast majority of people seeking a new mortgage or who want to refinance an existing one. According to the CFPB, only 12.8% of mortgages originated in 2012 don't meet the new standard.
•The new rules strictly define a "qualified" mortgage up to 30 years. A borrower's maximum debt-to-income ratio must be 43% or lower. No negative amortization or interest-only payments.
•If you want to invest in real estate, either to improve and quickly resell (flip) or to generate rental income, know that Federal Housing Administration loans, which require modest down payments, now have lower maximums than before. The top loan amounts vary from state to state, and even within states; in some places, like Florida, the top FHA loan amount plummeted from $417,000 to $285,000 for a jumbo mortgage. So if you have your sights set on a high-end flip or a multi-unit rental property, be prepared to pony up a lot more cash up front.
•Even for more modestly priced structures, for the best rates, down payments on investment properties are typically higher than for a primary residence. Be prepared to pay 25% down vs. 20% for a standard mortgage.
•If you own several properties and want to use the equity in them to buy another property or refinance an existing one, you may be turned down — even if you have stellar credit scores, substantial net worth and a low debt-to-income ratio. Lenders are setting arbitrary thresholds for the number of mortgages a person can hold. In some cases, that number is four.
•You may find your home equity line of credit canceled at the lender's discretion. Read the fine print.
How to Be a Credit-Smart Real-Estate Investor
Make investment decisions with the expectation of a long-term hold. You may have had an easy time getting a mortgage on an investment property, but your potential buyers may not. Even well-off corporate executives may have trouble buying a new house after a job transfer if they don't sell their old home before trying to buy a new one.
Build your financial model around liquidity. An unsold flip can end up costing you dearly, since you'll be on the hook for the mortgage, taxes, insurance and utilities until you can sell it. In other words, don't tie up all of your free capital in investment property.
Best places for second homes
Barron's Phil Roosevelt and Richard Morais discuss America's 20 most-attractive locales for upscale vacation homes. After a false start last year, prices look ready to rebound. Last call for bargains?
Grow your real-estate investment portfolio by buying those properties you think will give you the greatest return from asset appreciation. Why? Because counting on rental income alone can be tricky. Your property may lie vacant for months (or longer) before you can find a qualified tenant; you may have a deadbeat renter who's in arrears for months (or longer); you may have to rent at a loss because there's too much supply in your market, depressing prices; you may have expensive repairs that wipe out your profit for a year or more. And if your property requires Homeowners Association fees or other monthly maintenance fees, you could be blindsided by fee increases or unexpected assessments.

A modern dictionary of Catholic terms, both common and obscure. Find accurate definitions of words and phrases.
In the Old Testament the Jewish celebration every fiftieth year to commemorate the deliverance of the Israelites from Egypt. It was commanded by Yahweh to Moses, "You will declare this fiftieth year sacred and proclaim the liberation of all the inhabitants of the land. This is to be a jubilee for you; each of you will return to his ancestral home, each to his own clan" (Leviticus, 25:10). In the Catholic Church the jubilee year can be traced to Pope Boniface VIII in 1300 and marked by pilgrimages to Rome, with special services there and throughout the Christian world. Since 1470 the custom has been to hold a regular jubilee every twenty-five years. However, the popes have declared extraordinary jubilees at other times, e.g., in 1933 to commemorate the nineteenth centennial of the Redemption. Jubilees are also celebrated by bishops, priests, religious, and married people to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of their respective ordination, profession, or marriage. (Etym. Latin jubilaeus [annus], "[year] of jubilee," alteration [influenced by Latin jubilare, to jubilate]; of late Greek i_b_laios, from i_b_los, jubilee, from Hebrew y_bh_l, "ram's horn" [used to proclaim the jubilee].)

As of Thursday, April 11, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
AUGUSTA -- Marc Leishman had about three hours to enjoy leading the Masters.
When the Australia native finished his round with a 6-under 66, he held a two-stroke lead and walked off the 18th green with a big smile.
"Obviously, I was happy," said Leishman, playing in his second Masters and first since 2010. "I wanted to go out there and play well, and I did. I think smiling, being happy, is a good thing."
But while he finished his post-tournament interviews and made his way to his rented home for the week, Sergio Garcia kept making birdies and Dustin Johnson notched the 2013 Masters' first eagle. Garcia, the once future star, made the turn at 4-under and birdied the the par 5 16th to finish tied with Leishman. Johnson also reached 6-under, but bogeyed 17 to end the day one shot back.
And all Leishman could do was watch -- or not watch -- and wait as Garcia stole the story of the first-round of the Masters.
"I'll just go home, back to the house we've rented, just be good to see Harvey, he's my 15-month-old son," he said. "Probably play around with him in the back and he'll be throwing balls at me and I'll be chasing him. That will keep me amused for sure."
And the wait continues for Leishman who doesn't tee off today until 12:35 p.m. Leishman, however, knows how to wait.
It took the 29-year-old seven years as a professional until he won his first tournament, the Travelers Championship last year. He came from six shots back on Sunday to shock the field. But beginning so far back of the leaders meant one thing: Waiting.
"It was nerve-wracking," Leishman said of the two hours he spent watching golf and hoping to hoist a trophy. "I was pretty relaxed about it to be honest. I thought it was just, I'd finish second or third and got go home."
When the wait ends this afternoon, Leishman will tee off as a leader of a major golf tournament and a tournament he failed to make the cut in the first time.
"The first time I was here a few years ago, I was like a bit of a deer in headlights, I guess," he said. "Found myself looking around a little too much and not concentrating on getting the ball in the hole, which is what you need to do.
"To be here is awesome and sitting here is pretty cool. But, you know, it's only Thursday afternoon, so a lot of golf left to play. But, I feel good about my game."
Greens confound Woods, Watson
Bubba Watson kept trying to steer the conversation. He didn't want to talk about returning as Masters champion. He didn't want to talk about bigger galleries. He didn't want to talk about his position at 3-over par.
He wanted to talk about putting.
"I had four three-putts," Watson said, admitting one was a putt from the fringe but close enough for him to count it. "I never got the speed right, never got the ball to the hole. They were slower than what I was expecting ... I just left a lot of putts short."
And he wasn't the only owner of a green jacket struggle.
Four-time champion Tiger Woods, who finished 2-under par, also noted struggles reading the speed of the greens.
"We were (all leaving putts short)," Tiger said of him and playing partners Luke Donald and Scott Piercy. "The biggest challenge today was just the speed of the green. They just weren't quite there. They looked it, but just weren't quite putting it."
Mize scrapping and clawing
It's been since 2009 that Larry Mize made the cut at Augusta, but the 1987 Masters winner put himself in a good position Thursday.
The 54-year-old Georgia native shot a 1-over 73, putting him five back of the leaders Garcia and Leishman.
"(I) just scrapped and clawed for everything I could," Mize said. "You know, need to hit it a little better, but I really scored well today. My short game saved me, so I got through OK."
Mize only hit eight greens, but the Georgia Tech graduate averaged less than two putts a hole and it was an eight iron that he knocked close on No. 12 to set up one of his two birdies.
It's Mize's 30th Masters and he hasn't finished in the top 20 since 2000, but he doesn't show up to Augusta just for fun.
"The excitement is always here," he said. "I'm nervous out there playing. The competitor in you wants to play well.
"I've got to hit it better tomorrow."
14-year-old not shrinking in Masters' light
Whether he was running in a birdie putt on No. 18 or drawing applause from two-time Masters winner Ben Crenshaw or sitting at a podium and answering questions in both English and Chinese, Tianlang Guan never looked like a 14-year-old.
Rather, he looked like a golfer.
The amateur invite playing in his first Masters shot a 1-over 73 in his first round at Augusta National. His parents said he didn't act nervous during breakfast, but he conceded to a few jitters.
"Just a little bit nervous on the first tee," Guan said, "but I hit a great tee shot on it and after that I've felt comfortable."
On more than one occasion, Crenshaw applauded shots by Guan and the two played a practice round together earlier in the week.
"He played more like a veteran," Crenshaw said. "That's what really impresses me."
Seven shots off the lead Guan, technically, is in a good position in the tournament, but he kept steering his answers back to today's round.
"I just want to play some good golf tomorrow and just enjoy it," he said. "I want to win a major and hopefully I can win four majors in one year.
"Probably not this year."
Tough start for Cink
With a birdie on No. 9 to bring him back to even par, Stewart Cink put himself in a good position at the turn Thursday.
When he finished, that position was much worse.
The Duluth resident, who last year just made the cut before a disastrous 81 on Saturday, double-bogeyed the par 3 12th and then bogeyed No. 14, finishing nine back with a 3-over 75.

text: I am 17 years old and had my cat for 15 years and slept with her every night so you could imagine the loss I experienced from using this ****ING PRODUCT. Two nights ago we dipped my cat; we had used the dip before and she had a small reaction but we didn't think anything of it. She cried for an hour but that's normal after we bath her. She kept crying at my bedroom door so I opened it to let her in. She normally comes running in but instead she was just laying there. I knew it wasn't normal so I got my parents, and I immediately started crying because I knew my cat well enough to know this wasn't right. She tried to walk but ran into my door. We picked her up and took her downstairs and washed her off with Suave Shampoo and warm water thinking she was in pain with her skin. As she laid there, she began to stare off into space and rarely blinked. It was like she was brain dead, and if she was going to wind up dead this is what I would want so she wouldn't have to suffer anymore. She had two minor seizures and a couple of hours later she finally passed away. It's sad she died, but even more sad that it was an unneccessary cause. Old age is one thing, but this? WTF. NO WARNING AT ALL. WHY IS THIS **** ON THE MARKET. IM SO SAD BUT PISSED THE **** OFF.
