    Man Colds

    Have you had a chance to talk with a man-cold specialist about this? I think there's a foundation raising funds to aid in developing new treatments to fight the ravages of this hellish affliction.

    Housing market

    I agree with what you're saying. It IS tougher for young people to get into that first house, and a big part of that is the boomers (like me) who are living longer and not wanting, or needing to move out of their house. But one thing to remember is how our priorities change over time. When...

    Housing market

    It's easy to see that the cost of materials has gone up over the last few years, which has an effect on the affordability of new homes. But another significant factor is the rapidly increasing cost of land. This also cuts into builder profits. The builder has to hire the same subs and go...

    Housing market

    If you're going to ask the builder to lower his profit margins, the quickest way to do that is to reduce the amount of wages he pays to the laborers...which is the group you're claiming to want to help. Home ownership is NOT for everyone, and it's tough when you're in your early to mid...

    Fareway Corporate Offices to move to Johnston

    The biggest issue was there was essentially no plan for maintaining the building, and people were afraid the income would be insufficient to pay the debt. The same thing happened to the YMCA: people paid according to a sliding scale, and income declined.

    Advice for quitting drinking for a month
