You Could Complain Or You Could Get A Job Stop wasting your time listening to the Tea Party telling you how bad things are and for whom you should vote and for whom you should not vote. Do You Need A Job? You may be in luck. The State of Maryland has been creating jobs at a pace which surpasses that of most of the nation. Harford County, Maryland has been one of the hot beds for employment in the state, mainly because of the influx of jobs related to the military's base relocation and closure initiative (BRAC). 42 new defense contractors have already moved into the Harford County, with 24 of them moving in the last six months. To get in on this extensive job growth, you may want to attend the up coming Job Fair.

US TREASURY OUTLOOK-Jobs data, ECB decision take spotlight By Richard Leong NEW YORK, July 2 (Reuters) - The U.S. government debt market will likely be choppy on Thursday, as traders brace for possible surprises in the government's payroll report and an interest rate decision from the European Central Bank. Signs of more U.S. labor deterioration would further punish a battered stock market and increase the safe-haven appeal of Treasuries. They will also likely lead traders to pare their bets on the Federal Reserve raising interest rates later this year, analysts and investors said on Wednesday. "A bad payroll number could boost bonds and put some pressure to pare expectations of a rate hike this summer," said Steve Point, lead portfolio manager at Glenmede Investment Management in Phila...

During World War I the Army realised that they needed a placefor testing munitions and equipment that was not located close to a heavily populated area. APG officially opened on December 14, 1917, and the first gun was fired on January 2, 1918 during a heavy snowstorm. The War came to an end on November 11, 1918, just as they got up and running with there testing missions. Today it is called "The Home of Army Ordnance" and is a key element in the nation's defense. APG is considered to be one of the Army's finest test, evaluation, research, development, engineering, and training installations in the world.Photos Courtesy of U.S A...

A quick search of the Internet for homes in any area will give you a list so long you could never see all of them!!  Yes, it can be frustrating; how do you find the right home right now?   I believe it's out there the first thing to do is talk to a professional that can help you through all the steps.  Why would you be looking at a $500,000 home when your budget is $200,000?  The right home does not have to take forever to find you just have to do the right search and research in the beginning of the process to get the correct information that you need. The first, and I believe the most important, is know what loan  you qualify for, second where do you want to live, third what style of home are you looking for.  For example, is this your first and is a town home is perfect or do you nee...
