Build Your Credit Score Without Credit Cards [Personal Finance ...

Build Your Credit Score Without Credit Cards We?ve discussed some ways to build credit without a credit card in the past, but the folks at Get Rich Slowly have a few additional suggestions, including taking out a small personal loan with a trusted bank or credit union and paying it down on time, and trying out a secured credit card that you load up with money and use like cash. Both options will build up your FICO score over time, and are great alternatives for people who don?t like or don?t trust credit cards.

Get Rich Slowly walks through exactly what makes up your FICO score, and points out that while credit cards are just tools that?with discipline and good money management?can enhance your financial life instead of destroy it, some people understandably don?t trust credit card issuers, or won?t trust themselves with a credit card.

For those people, it?s important to understand the differences between good and bad debt. A small personal loan for a pet project or a used car from a bank or credit union you have a long history with counts as ?good debt,? and as long as it?s easily added to your budget and paid on time, can do a lot to boost your score. There?s also the secured card option, which requires you to put down as much money as you?re willing to use it for, and as you spend your collateral, you use up the card until you ?charge it up? again, as it were.

As a last resort, they?like we did?suggest biting the bullet and getting a card anyway, but they also pay a nod to the cash-only movement, or the people who dismiss FICO entirely because they manage their finances so even high-dollar purchases like homes and vehicles that traditionally require loans are payable with cash. What do you think? Are you a cash-only believer, or do you believe it?s not the cards that put people in debt, but the people themselves? Share your thoughts in the comments.

Town bans all cellphone use while driving

Featured

1 day

Many Egyptians are living without electricity or jobs, and soon, those who still do have access to power may also have to do without online ... Read more

22 min.

Unless it's an emergency, drivers who talk on their cellphones -- even hands-free -- in Chapel Hill, North Carolina will face a $25 fine, but the first town in the U.S. to impose this kind of ban may be overstepping its authority with the state.

On Monday, the town council voted 5-4 in favor of an ordinance that prohibits any kind of cellphone use while driving.

NBC17 reported that this ruling, however, may exceed the town's jurisdiction.?The state's assistant Attorney General Jess D. Mekeel wrote in a letter that the state "has preemptive authority to regulate the use of mobile phones by motorists within the state of North Carolina. It is my opinion that an ordinance by the Town of Chapel Hill regulating motorists? use of cell phones is preempted by State law and, therefore, unenforceable."

Chapel Hill's town attorney disagrees with that interpretation, NBC17 said.

I've reached out to the town council and mayor, and will update if and when we hear from them. I called Ed Harrison, the council member who cast the deciding vote (and who was absent during the first stalemate vote earlier this month). He declined to comment.

Chapel Hill has a population of more than 51,000 and covers 21.1 square miles, with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as one of its major employers.

The ban would begin June 1 and has already ignited a local firestorm. Some took their elected officials to task via emails, which are available at the council's website. Here's one that objects to the decision:

Dear all,

When I heard that the town council voted 5-4, I was just shocked and appalled at the decision. The ruling doesn't make sense at many levels. I understand and I think we all agree that texting, putting on make-up, shaving, stuffing a big sandwich in your mouth (dashboard dining), talking on a hand-held cellphone, messing with a radio or a GPS device, while driving are all distracting. Interestingly, some of these will still be legal come June 1 in the great town of Chapel Hill. If you truly believed that hands-free cellphone is so dangerous, why would talking to your parent, spouse, or children (the exceptions you made) make it less dangerous. Or how about talking to your fellow passengers? Can we all just use some common sense and repeal this ruling.

I consider myself a liberal and progressive but this ruling went too far. All I could think of was Jessie Helms comment about putting a fence around our town. You just made us look like extreme and fringe lunatics. Thank you for that.

Those who opposed the ban also pointed to the difficulty of enforcing the ban on the town's roads and the cost of such vigilance.?

And then, there were messages like this, in support of the ban:

I am well aware of the ?studies that show that the use of cell phones (hand-held AND hands-free) is as detrimental to good driving as driving drunk, but many people are not. It's not just texting that's a problem --- even conversations on a hands-free device are distracting. I avoid driving when the bars close because I try to limit my encounters with drunk ?drivers, but I cannot do the same with cell-phone using drivers. They are everywhere.

Even though this ban might be difficult to enforce, the same was probably true of the seat belt law when it was new. I know people who now wear their seat belts specifically because of the existence of the law. Please do the same for cell phone use, and make the roads safer for all of us.

For those who support the ordinance, one clause will probably rankle them. It won't be considered a primary offense, in that drivers won't be pulled over just for talking on their phones -- it could be added on if the driver is stopped for another offense.

Tips On How To Maximize Your Life Through Home Improvement ...

Most of the time that you spend in life with be at work or your home. Because of this, your home has a huge impact on your everyday mood and outlook. It is important that when you are at home you can relax, feeling safe and protected from the outside world. Being at home should be a time when you can recharge your batteries, not having to constantly consider what is going on around you. The suggestions in this article will show you how you can convert your house into a retreat.

Applying proper feng shui colors essential for successful feng shui decorating approaches.

The very definition of a home implies that it should feel safe and comfortable for you. Don?t wave off imperfections that prevent you from feeling great about your home. Feeling comfortable comes first. It could be something as simple as replacing uncomfortable furniture, or having shelving moved to within reach.

Increase your existing space by expanding it. If you are lacking in adequate space, being able to set up the room the way you desire will be limited. You can fix this problem by creating an expansion. Even a tiny bit of extra space can feel like a ton sometimes.

Consider adding a hot tub or pool to your backyard. These additions will not only provide your family with lots of fun, they will also add aesthetic value. They have the added bonus of raising the value of your home as well.

Be sure to check your lighting if your house makes you feel tired. Improper lighting can result in eye strain, which will make you feel grumpy and tired. A quick home improvement project that can increase your overall living space, as well as improve your state of mind, is to add and/or change your current lighting systems.

Green areas can add color and beauty to your outdoor spaces. The outside of your house is just as important as the inside, so pick a small place in your garden and turn it into your own personal sanctuary. This will provide you with a peaceful, secluded area to relax with a good book, or spend time with friends and family, enjoying the fresh air. You may even want to consider planting flowers, growing herbs or raising vegetables so that you can dine on fresh produce.

Altering the exterior appearance of the home will bring you much pleasure. Make your home stand out with a new roof or windows. Before entering the front door, you will already enjoy coming back to your new place.

When you make improvements to your home, it not only increases the value, but it also makes everyone who lives there more comfortable. If you love where you live, it will make you happier.

It is said that your life will improve and happier when you know how you can implement feng shui colors to your own home.

Health care Supreme Court hearings: Skeptical questions cast doubt ...

Sharp questioning by the Supreme Court's conservative justices has cast serious doubt on the survival of the individual insurance requirement at the heart of President Barack Obama's historic health care overhaul.

Arguments at the high court Tuesday focused on whether the insurance requirement "is a step beyond what our cases allow," in the words of Justice Anthony Kennedy.

He and Chief Justice John Roberts are emerging as the seemingly pivotal votes.

Kennedy told Solicitor General Donald Verrilli that he faced a heavy burden to justify why it was necessary to require Americans to ?go into commerce? by purchasing health insurance.

Justices Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito appeared likely to join with Justice Clarence Thomas to vote to strike down the key provision. The four Democratic appointees seemed ready to vote to uphold it.

Scalia said the mandate may be necessary, but not proper, because the federal government is supposed to have limited powers.

"If the government can do this, what else can it not do?" he asked.

There was a lot of talk about healthy young people subsidizing the health care costs of others. Justice Elena Kagan suggested they are also beneficiaries.

"The subsidizers eventually become the subsidized," she said.

Oral arguments conclude on Wednesday.

A transcription of Tuesday's proceedings:

Black Keys rock Madison Square Garden like pros

NEW YORK (AP) ? There were few flashing lights, the backdrop wasn't overloaded with visuals or videos, and the band rarely spoke, if it wasn't in song.

The Black Keys are rock stars, and their traditional rock sound electrified Madison Square Garden on Monday night.

The duo performed more than 20 songs in a 90-minute show that was exhilarating, bluesy and loud.

Singer and guitarist Dan Auerbach was top-notch throughout, especially on "Same Old Thing," ''Run Right Back" and "I'll Be Your Man." The petite, bearded musician was a monster on the guitar, playing it like a mad man on "Little Black Submarines" and "Lonely Boy," which got the crowd dancing, swaying and jumping around like mad men (and women, too.)

Drummer Patrick Carney was just as good, rocking away as the duo was backed by a bass player and another guitarist, who also played keys.

English rockers Arctic Monkeys opened up for The Black Keys, setting the tone for the night.

The Ohio-based Black Keys have released seven albums since 2002, and they finally struck gold with their last two efforts, 2010's "Brothers" and "El Camino," released in December. They've collaborated with Danger Mouse and Mos Def, and last year won three Grammy Awards.

"We're thrilled to be playing at the Garden," Auerbach said. "Pretty mind-blowing. Thanks for sharing that with us."

The oddest part of the night was when disco balls appeared onstage and at the center of the venue before the duo's encore. Returning, they performed "Everlasting Light," where they sounded vintage thanks to its simple drum beat and Auerbach's high pitch tone. The lights were bright, but the musicians still remained at the core of it all.

7 Tips For More Effective Conference Call Communications

Editor?s Note: This blog post was a tag team effort by ?Ash.O?, our Client Experience Manager, and ?Sarah H. Contingency,? our Executive Administrator.

One word ? Communication. If it seems so simple, why isn?t it?

Communication is a complicated process. You have to not only listen to what the other party is saying (as well as what they are not saying through their body language and intonation), but you also need to react to what they have said with something of your own. A statement, comment, or question indicating you have indeed heard and understood what they have said, while providing your own desired input. It can be a tricky situation, especially if you?re not communicating face-to-face.

It is estimated that most conversational and social cues come from body language, so when you?re communicating with a bodiless voice over the phone, a body of text on a computer screen, or a couple lines of text on your mobile, your cues are cut by at least half. E-mails and texting are in a completely separate category altogether compared to a conversation over the phone. On the phone, you at least have intonation from which to understand the other party. To listen effectively over the phone, you need to rely more and more on the other person?s tone, emphasis, and your own hearing and focus.

If you are merely waiting to talk, you are not listening and you?re probably missing out on the most important parts of the conversation. This is what makes conference calls so much fun! As you can imagine, the more people you add into a call, the more complicated and confusing things can get. Person A is talking to Person B, but Person C thinks Person A is talking to them, Person D is talking to Person B, and Person E is answering Person A?s question and asking one of their own, which Person D asked earlier in the conversation. See what I mean? Effective listening becomes even more important.

Active listening can solve all of your problems. This is a 3-part system designed to ensure you are listening effectively. The first part is to comprehend. This is attained by actually listening to what is being said and asking questions for clarification. The second part is retaining. This can be accomplished by remembering what the person has said or even taking notes as they speak. The third part is responding. This is when you put the first two parts to good use. When responding, you paraphrase their statement(s) and then provide your response or input. This lets the other party know that you are hearing what they are saying, helps keep both parties on the ?same page,? and further engages them to continue the conversation with you while feeling more consulted and understood than ever.

  1. Get to a quiet place with a clear phone line and connection.
  2. Minimize distractions ? trust me, Facebook can wait.
  3. When going into a conference call with a client, perhaps speak with the other parties on your side of the call prior to getting the client on the line to setup who is talking about what and when.
    1. If you know your agenda and order going in, it will be easier to keep a pace to the call while still including the client in the conversation. It will also avoid talking over each other, at least from your company?s side and provide the client with the feeling that they are communicating with a unified team.
  4. Listen to what everyone is saying, even if it?s not connected to what you want to say.
    1. Take notes, even if someone else already is, it will force you to pay attention to what people are saying and will avoid repetition.
  5. Keep an ear out for changes in tone, volume, and emphasis ? in a call, those are the only conversational cues you have.
  6. While speaking, keep things clear, concise, and at a slower speed.
    1. This should reduce instances of conversational steamrolling, information overload, and repeating information already covered.
  7. Remember ? what the other party has to say is just as, if not more, important than what you have to say.
    1. An attitude like this poises you to listen effectively instead of waiting to talk.

Happy Communicating!

If you have a large garden but would like more indoor living space, adding a conservatory is one home improvement you should consider. A conservatory will provide an additional room to your house that will be filled with natural light. The room can be used for moonlit dinners, home gym equipment, sun lounges and much more. The structure is also likely to catch the eye of potential buyers and increase the resale value of your home.

When improving the exterior of your home, you can save money and add security by installing motion detecting lights. Instead of leaving lights on all night long, motion detecting lights are only on when they?re activated by nearby movement. And intruders will be wary of approaching your home because they know you will be aware of their presence when the lights come on.

Take a little time to prepare for a home improvement project! When you are painting a room it is important to cover the furniture in the room before you begin. If paint gets splattered onto the furniture it could ruin it permanently. Sheets can be used to cover the furniture and protect it from possible drips or smears from paint.

Before you try to tackle a professional project like a plumbing or electrical issue on your own, get a professional estimate first. If the issue is a small one, then chances are you can afford the bill. If the issue is a large one then chances are you aren?t qualified to handle it anyway. Trying to do these projects on your own will often lead to more damage and even injury.

Add privacy while changing the look of a door or window with inexpensive window films. These films cling to glass and provide a frosted or otherwise textured look, which prevents passersby from seeing into your home. This solution is ideal for windows located inside a bathroom or for front doors. Well, just what do you feel about that so far? Thermal Underwear For Women is a huge area with many additional sub-topics you can read about. A lot of men and women have found certain other areas are helpful and contribute excellent information.

So what we advise is to really try to discover what you need, and that will usually be determined by your circumstances.

Installing new shelves in a garage or other area can give one much more space to store whatever they choose while also clearing space off the ground. This will open up the walking areas of the room and also make things look more organized. Shelves can be used for home improvement needs.

If your house is low on usable space and you need an extra space, consider looking to your attic or basement for help. You can easily choose to turn your basement into a livable environment such as an office, man cave or recreation room. If your basement already has a staircase, a roof and separate walls, it can be a very cost effective way to improve your home.

When you replace old equipment during a home improvement project, always try to get the most energy-efficient replacements you can afford. In many cases, a slight extra expenditure gets you appliances or building materials, that are far more efficient than the bargain-basement options. These little extra outlays will be quickly offset by reduced energy and heating bills.

You need to be informed with anything you attempt to accomplish in life, and this definitely holds true for home improvement. The last thing you need to do is to mess something up in your home. Pay attention to what you learned in this article and use these tips for your next improvement job. We do hope this very small taste concerning Repainting Furniture will be of great benefit for you.
