For Some Orthodox Christians, Christmas is Coming This Week

Posted by Donald D. Monahan at Dec 31, 2011 | No Comments »

Christmas is over for many, but there are some Orthodox Christians who are looking forward to celebrating at the end of this week. Instead of using the Gregorian calendar, which is used by most of the secular for business purposes, and by many Christian sects to mark their feast days and religions observances, Orthodox churches use the Julian calendar. (Although some Orthodox sects use a revised Julian calendar that places Christmas at about the same time as what we see with non-Orthodox sects.)

As a result, the date of Christmas usually falls sometime around January 7th on the Gregorian calendar for some Orthodox churches.

A few facts to swat renewable energy myths

Posted by Agnes Alexander at Dec 16, 2011 | No Comments »

Contradicting the myth makers (see below), domestic energy bills are not currently high due to the cost of investing in renewable energy. If only they were, some would say. According to the independent Committee on Climate Change, the average dual-fuel household energy bill increased from £605 a year in 2004 to £1,060 in 2010. Just £75 of this £455 increase was due to low carbon and renewable energy investment. And £30 of that covers energy savings measures like loft insulation.

Gas prices lead to high energy price rises. Still, there’s no pleasing the Global Warming Foundation. It headlined  this report today as: Electricity Bills To Rocket By 25% Because Of Green Targets, a lead story taken verbatim from the Daily Mail.

The lion’s share of the increase in our energy bills has been due to the Big Six energy suppliers passing through the increase in the market price of gas and electricity. Renewable

Posted by admin at Dec 13, 2011 | No Comments »

Even if you don’t want to take the services of the established financial planners, and you want to make a plan of this kind by yourself, it is better to follow the rules of the financial planners. Whether we are talking about establishing a plan for the real estate you might own, or you just need a few advices to establish some short-term financial investments, the plans implemented by those companies for their clients might work just as well for you also.

Plan your future. Allot some time to establish the financial objectives and include them in a realistic plan that will help you to succeed.

US Needs More Engineers To Help Out The Economy

Posted by Donald D. Monahan at Dec 11, 2011 | No Comments »

I found this article really interesting.  It talks about how getting more engineers into the economy can have a big impact on our GDP.  Now, Its not like this is anything new.  I hear all the time about how our kids need to be better at math and science.  This just seems to be even more proof:

From dozens of low-slung buildings and state-of-the art complexes, more than 2,700 scientists, researchers, faculty and students at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBL) are concocting the latest in renewable energy, nanomaterials and supercomputers.

LBL, one of 17 national laboratories, may be the most pre-eminent lab in a country built on the creation of the telephone, TV, microprocessor, nuclear power and the Internet. But

What are the joys of home ownership?

Posted by Carolyn Mack at Dec 11, 2011 | No Comments »

Owning a home allows you and your family a stable environment. You become part of a neighborhood and community with a sense of belonging. With renting, neighbors come and go, but homeowners tend to stay longer in their neighborhoods and establish longer-term relationships.

Many people enter the domain of homeownership as young couples looking to build a family and nest egg. They plan on starting a family and need room to grow. These family homes will see many firsts and will be a part of countless memories. As well, homeownership gives families more room to entertain and this means extended family will also share in building memories.

It is not only young families seeking homeownership. Families with young people seek larger homes for their growing family. Retiring adults may also wish to start a new phase and new memories by seeking out warmer climates or smaller more convenient home environments.

These memories and moments are what life is all about.
