methow valley real estate agent: Great ideas for Winthrop Washington in the Slow Times - 10/31/09 03:33 PM
Methow Valley Washington slows down soon after high hunt ends and just after halloween for a number of reasons.  The weather in Winthrop Washington is typically the first wet snows of winter, not enough to ski yet, and the number of visitors to our beautiful Methow Valley tend to slow way down as they are getting ready for winter themselves.
In the slow season, are you looking for a project to keep you busy?  Maybe you are one of the lucky ones who has headed off to Hawaii for a few weeks, but if not this is a great time for … (0 comments)

 This is Lesson 2 to review Lesson 1 go to http://activerain.com/blogsview/1298501/introduction-to-html-and-task-1-create-a-simple-web-page-in-5-minutes
Paragraphs and Line Breaks
Ordinary text in HTML documents is contained with the <P> and </P> container tags. One major difference between HTML and word processor documents is how HTML treats white space.
HTML does not recognize spaces created by the Tab key. It also does not recognize space created by multiple presses of the spacebar. It treats these as one space. If you do require large amounts of white space then you need other HTML tags such as <PRE>.
 Lets create some examples to show this.

In the link below is the historical stock chart from Google's  Finance. http://www.google.com/finance?q=INDEXDJX:.DJI,INDEXSP:.INX,INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC
The 1 year low occurred in March of 09 claiming to be the lowest point in over 5 years as shown in the 10 year chart.  http://www.google.com/finance?q=INDEXDJX:.DJI,INDEXSP:.INX,INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC 
The drop in March has been followed by a steady up trend as better seen in the 6 month historic chart:  http://www.google.com/finance?q=INDEXDJX:.DJI,INDEXSP:.INX,INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC
Can this be an indication that our real estate market is truly going to stay in an up trend too? Historically the stock market will lead the economic recovery, so if the up trend continues, the economists calling for an improved economy in 2010 may just have that … (1 comments)
