How to not think that having no loans or debts will improve your ...

Tip #17: Don?t think that having no loans or debts will improve your credit score.

?

Some people believe that owing no money, having no credit cards, and in fact avoiding the whole world of credit will help improve their credit score.? The opposite is true ? lenders want to see that you can handle credit, and the only way they can tell is if you have credit that you handle responsibly.? Having no credit at all can actually be worse for your credit score than having a few credit accounts that you pay off scrupulously.? If you currently have no credit accounts at all, opening a low balance credit card can actually boost your credit score.

StoryWalk The Curious Garden at Tamarack ... - Free Family Fun!

Tamarack Nature Center is offering a StoryWalk? adventure for you and your family on Sunday between 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m..? Your family can enjoy a story while exploring the great outdoors. As you walk, you will be able to read a book together page-by-page along the walking paths. StoryWalk? is an initiative that combines a children?s story with a popular walking route? It was developed in 2007 by Anne Ferguson, a volunteer with the The Vermont Bicycle & Pedestrian Coalition.? A children?s book is selected, the pages are separated, laminated and attached to wooden stakes. The stakes are then placed at regular intervals along paths so readers can follow the story as they walk the route.

The story for this walk will be The Curious Garden,?by Peter Brown.? As you explore, you will be able to read the book together page-by-page along the walking paths and in Discovery Hollow.?Discover how a curious little boy and his garden can transform a city from drab to fab!

All Ages Welcome
Sunday, July 1st, 2-4 pm
This program is free, preregistration is not required.

The Ramsey County Board of Commissioners has waived admission fees for 2012. Donations are gladly accepted and support the programming and operation for the Nature Play Area and Children?s Garden.

If you Google, ?The Curious Garden Activities,? you can find a ton of activities that can be brought home to extend this book.? It?s a beautiful book both for children and adults.? It really makes you want to get out and transform your own little world.? I want to try to pair this with a trip to the Farmers market to buy some veggies and? try one of the recipes they are always handing out.

Another way to go with this activity is the StoryWalk itself.? We have so many wonderful children?s books that have been loved to pieces over the years ? some that have been through multiple generations.? What do you do with these books when they no longer want to stay together, but you love the story too much to throw it away?? Why not post your own indoor StoryWalk?? (Although, if you only have one copy, you will have to be able to get to both sides of the page.)? Suite 101 offers seven more ideas for re-using old storybooks.? These ideas are great springboards for all sorts of creative ideas.? You may have to start buying beat up thrift shop books, just to keep up with your kids art projects.? Ameilia?s House also offers an entire party plan based on books and book art projects.? Some of these ideas could be borrowed for family art time.

Improving America's Competitiveness ? Archibald Relocation ...

You can?t get there from here.

?There? is the economic future we want for America: a vibrant, creative, full-employment economy firing on all cylinders and growing at twice the current rate. ?Here? is the U.S. circa 2012, with our aging, deteriorating infrastructure: highways, bridges, railways, airports, seaports, electrical grid, and communications networks.

Historically, one of America?s greatest advantages has been its superior infrastructure: more than 500 primary airports; some 3.9 million miles of public roads, including more than 47,000 miles of interstate highway; 120,000 miles of major rail; 2 million miles of oil and natural gas pipeline; more than 300 ports.

Most of the assets we categorize as infrastructure move people, goods, and information from here to there: roads, bridges, ports, waterways, rail, transit systems, airports, air traffic control, and the national information (broadband) infrastructure. Other assets include the electric power grid, dams, drinking water systems, and wastewater and hazardous waste facilities.

But we?ve been shortchanging ourselves for years, failing to maintain them, let alone significantly adding to capacity like we should have been. And our economy is already paying the price.

The Economic Development Research Group, for example, estimates that deficiencies in our roads, bridges, and transit systems cost the economy about $130 billion in 2010. The American Society of Civil Engineers estimates that service interruptions and bottlenecks in the electrical power grid will cost businesses and households some $197 billion by 2020.

Expanding and modernizing America?s infrastructure is an investment, not consumption. It not only creates economic value?it improves U.S. competitiveness.

Most Americans take these things for granted until there are problems: Carcinogens show up in our drinking water; the air traffic control system hiccups, tying up air traffic; a highway bridge collapses; New York City experiences a blackout. Then they notice.

The Chinese understand how important it is to get there from here. As a consequence, they?re investing heavily in infrastructure, adding a reported 56 new airports in the next five years alone and 186,000 miles of new roads, among other assets.

Roads, bridges, ports, airports, air traffic control, and electricity and information distribution systems don?t maintain and expand themselves. Washington must make them a priority. The longer we wait, the more it will cost.
