alabama: BUSINESS SLOWDOWN?
- 05/14/07 06:02 PM
I found this interesting articile in Business Week Magazine Don't count on it, with profits strong and inventories down, capital spending should rally
US Economy as 2007 began, everyone was worried about consumers: How would their spending hold up as the housing slump wore on? Well, consumer outlays turned out to be the economy's star performer in the first quarter, with inflation-adjusted spending growing a healthy 3.8%, measured at an annual rate. Now in the wake of some puny0looking numbers on capital spending, economic anxiety has turned to the business sector. The question there: Will a cooler economy, rising labor costs, and a … (0 comments)
alabama: Please Don't Promote Me
- 05/14/07 05:59 PM
I would like to share what I read in Business Week Magazine: For some climbing the corporate ladder brings on vertigo. In a recent survey, nearly one in five managers ranked getting a promotion as their most challenging life event. One big reason, say researchers at Development Dimensions International, which conducted the poll of 785 business leaders, is that 40% of managers get little or no support as they enter their new jobs, according to the survey. "It's sink or swim." Says Matthew Paese, vice president at the Bridgeville (Pa.) - based human resources consulting firm. Even more managers may express such … (3 comments)
alabama: Things You Give Up For Marriage
- 03/21/07 09:55 AM
My wife left me... And I don't understand. After the last child was born, she told me we had to cut back on expences- I had to give up drinking beer. I was not a big drinker, maybe a 12-pack on weekends. Anyway, I gave it up but I noticed the other day when she came home from grocery shopping, the reciept included $45 for makeup. I said "Wait a minute I've given up beer and you haven't given up anything!" She said, "I buy that makeup for you, so I can look pretty for you." I told her, "Heck, that's what the beer was for!" I don't think … (7 comments)
alabama: Are You Old?
- 03/21/07 09:49 AM
Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things. The people who started university this year across the nation were born in 1985. They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up. Thier lifetime has always included AIDS. Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic. The CD was introduced the year they were born. They have always had an answering machine, They have always had cable. They cannot fathom not having a remote control. Jay Leno has laways been on the tonight show. Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave. They never took a swim and thought about Jaws. They don't … (1 comments)
Have you ever been caught in a web you didn't weave, Involved in conditions that are hard to believe? Have you felt you must speak and explain or deny A story that's groundless or a small, whispered lie? Have you ever heard rumors you would like to refute Or some telltale gossip you would like to dispute? Well, don't be upset for God knows the score And with God as your judge you need worry no more, For men may misjudge you but God's verdict is fair For He looks deep inside and He is clearly aware Of every small detail in your pattern of … (0 comments)
alabama: ATTITUDE
- 03/19/07 12:59 AM
There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, And noticed she had only three hairs on her head. "Well" she said, " I think I'll braid my hair today." So she did and she had a wonderful day. The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw she had only two hairs on her head. "H-M-M," she said, I think I'll part my hair down the middle today." So She did and she had a grand day. The next morning she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her … (9 comments)
One of the biggest problems facing potential homebuyers today is coming up with enough money for the down payment and closing costs. The amount you have available can greatly limit or increase your purchasing power. Rather than saving all the money yourself, there are options that may help. Here are some ways to accumulate the necessary funds that are acceptable to most lenders.
