    Effective relief for anxiety and panic attacks

    My suggestion is FIRST see a qualified physician. Everyone can make their suggestions but in reality we are all different. Most important of all is to understand that you're human and this is one of those human things that happen. Don't blame yourself etc. Go see the best doc you can. Listen to...

    World’s largest cruise ship labeled ‘monstrosity’ ahead of maiden voyage

    It's sorta like field of dreams though.....they keep building them bigger and bigger and people continue to buy the trips and come back for more. Since I get seasick to beat the band this is one joy I'll just have to miss.

    Dan Snyder is finally out!

    It could be. He did play well at NC. We'll just have to see how he handles the pressure and what happens as the NFL defenses get to know him. Also and equally important is that the offensive line is NOT top talent and that will make his job that much harder. The receivers and running backs are...

    Russian inflation is raging at 60%, not the reported 3.6%

    The Swiss do make more than we do in salary but they pay more in taxes as well. We were in Switzerland a few years back and I fully agree with you daughter and son in law.....the prices were insane.

    The news gives us 1% the truth..90% lies...

    My view is that all the press regardless of type are attempting FIRST and FOREMOST to make money because without that they don't have jobs. Hence, what they publish is slanted to sell papers or get viewers or what have you. Nice. down the middle news does not sell anything. It has to be a big...

    Russian inflation is raging at 60%, not the reported 3.6%

    I think Just Dave is on the money.....he's one guy and one economists opinion isn't necessarily worth a lot. I'm not saying he's not smart. He is.....but he also felt back in January that the FED should have stopped raising rates then and that would not have been the correct move by a long...

    Dan Snyder is finally out!

    If I understand his plan he's going with the coaches they have this year and if he's going to change he will do that for next year which makes sense.....

    Dan Snyder is finally out!

    Kaila, My guess is that this coming year will be no fun at all.....they need a lot of good players and the coaching staff needs to go.....but I'm hoping that we will start to make changes to bring the fan base back but still, I think you are pretty accurate....maybe yes, maybe no, at least for a...

    Dan Snyder is finally out!

    Actually, even after paying the fines he's going. to walk away with more than $5 billion....... As for winning a championship we are so far away from that it's a joke.....but to have a team that maybe gets to the playoffs in 3 years and stays there......that might happen.....way too many holes...

    Time to extend CD maturities.

    My target has always been at least 5.5% to go long because you can't predict future inflation. There are several preferred stocks out there paying over 6% with the biggest banks......while there is risk of principle loss if the bank fails in the biggest banks I feel that risk is relatively...

    Hello to everyone

    LOL! Yes, I've been on that stretch of 95 both through the city and the LONG way around ......the one through the city at rush hour in the dark in winter is a special anxiety test that they must have dreamed up when they built it. At least here in DC in rush hour you're lucky if you go 15MPH but...

    Dan Snyder is finally out!

    The NFL finally approved the sale of the Commanders to a new group........maybe in 4 or 5 years we'll actually have a good team.

    Hello to everyone

    LOL! I'm from Fairfax Station, Virginia......I have been to Toronto once and it's a beautiful city although I remember your beltway around the town had one heck of a lot of lanes to it......

    Do You Need To See A Lawyer To Get a Legitimate Power of Attorney?

    As a former financial services guy, I do recommend an attorney because both State and Federal laws can be quirky AND attorneys for different companies can be quirky as well and it's well worth the money to have someone knowledgeable in your camp......my two cents on the matter.
