This is a compare and contrast, any help would be great especially with comma splices and run-ons thank you!! The Charm of Magic City With a skyline like nowhere else in the world, Miami FL is an urban paradise. The buildings reach up into the heavens, mediators between the sky and the concrete street. The streets that move and seethe under the adoring eyes of the summer sun. The city has a heartbeat of its own; the heat can be seen rising from the ground, pulsing. With youthful eyes Miami seemed so vast to me, the skyscrapers and shoreline extended far beyond my comprehension. This place was the stage of my childhood, where I found out what friendship and love meant; where I discovered things about myself that live true to this day. I left Miami when I was 14 because my parents said that it was too dangerous for me. I never understood what they meant back then; I couldn’t fathom that the place where all my dreams were born, could be bad. I’ve come back to visit during Christmas, after many years have passed; the whole family got together at my grandmother’s house. There is a huge celebration, with more home cooked Cuban food than even an ambitious family restaurant. After talking with cousins’, aunts, and uncles and going out to my old haunts on south beach, I realize that the city just didn’t feel the same. The city itself hasn’t changed much, it’s still a hotspot for people looking to have fun and let loose. The place that I remember is just a façade, and has somehow melted away to reveal what was there all along. So with a veteran’s eye I take a closer look at the city I once loved, and see the decay and filth that was underneath the neon lights all those years ago. Miami was utopia for me, there was a huge world within the city limits for me to explore and experience. At any given time there was somewhere to go, something to do and someone to talk to. I can remember standing on Lincoln Ave, and marveling at the cacophony emitted by the tangling of so many people’s lives; it was an urban orchestra of speech and noise performed in a way that made it beautiful. The smell of overpriced coffee and sea water was like catnip for to a kitten. Being young and wanting to find out about society, and how people interact with each other; I was fascinated by the masses that flooded the beach on Saturday night. I could observe human nature and all the different lifestyles put on display; I could be a part of it all. I decide to take a ride down to the same spot during my visit and realize that nothing is like it was. The 45 minute drive, and then the 30 minutes spent driving around looking for parking was enough to make me insane. There were so many people on the street that I had to cruise at 5 miles an hour just to avoid hitting someone. The horde of people didn’t seem so interesting anymore, instead they were just a nuisance. The girls dressed in hot pink tutus, and the guys in black trench coats and eye liner didn’t arouse my enthusiasm for the city, I just looked at them funny and paid little attention. Walking down the same strip, carrying a cup of that same overpriced coffee I used to smell, a different aroma filled the air; it was stale beer and cigarette smoke. The mighty kingdom of the Lincoln strip has been reduced to an overcrowded, inconveniencing maze of drunken college students. Besides a retirement destination, Miami is known for its nightlife. Back when I partied all the time, the club scene was something out of the movies; although I was too young to be there, I always got in. My Favorite club was the crowbar, where people like Madonna had been known to visit. Walking in was like entering a different world, the huge ceiling to floor tropical fish tanks and dripping crystal chandeliers made a lasting impression. The vibrations from the blasting music entered my ears and spread through my body like neurotoxic poison from a snake bite; taking control of me and forcing me to dance all night long. There was always a house party or rave to attend, where strobe lights made things move in slow motion, and the techno music could be heard for at least 2 city blocks. Laughter and dancing were on the forefront of my agenda; everyone around me seemed to be having the time of their lives. Upon my return to this party destination, my feelings are far from lighthearted and carefree. Before even reaching the club I notice the graffiti laden walls; I now know what the symbols on the sides of buildings mean. I also know that I can’t drive down certain street or wear certain colors in some areas. There was always deviance before, but neighborhood squabbles are a far cry from the gun fights and robbery that is seen now. The growth and evolution of violence can be tracked; it’s a toxic wave of noxious fumes that creeps through alleys leaving a visible trail of corrosion in its wake. This dark fog of malicious activity comes to rest under burned out street lamps or high traffic cor

When the State Pension rises, does the Additional pension element rise proportionately or is this fixed at what it was worth at retirement age?

for about 6 months I have been putting 6% (Company matches with 3%) of my $40,000 salary into my 401k... but with a current lack of an emergency fund and some credit card debt I am considering lowering it to 3% (1.5% match) for a little while and then bringing it back up once my financial situation is a little more stable. would this be a bad idea? the way I see it I am still very young and have lots of time to save for retirement and the emergency fund and getting debt payed off seems like it ought to be a priority... any thoughts? the 6% that I am currently at is the minimum to get the full company match

Here's my story, sorry if it's a bit lengthy. At the tragic expense of my grandfather's sudden and early death, I've recived my multi-million dollar inheritence earlier than anticipated. He was an executive for Warren Buffets Berkshire Hathaway and bought up several hundred shares of stock while they were dirt cheap. My current financial situation is this: A 41 year annuity of $207'000.00 a year (Actually direct deposits monthly.) Also a secluded cabin in the Hawaiian islands as my permanent residence, and 1.5 Million remaining in uncommited dollars spread out in three bank accounts, that will be my retirement when my annuity runs out at the age of 61. As you can see, I'm a 20 years man and set for life. Further more, and you can correct me if I'm wrong about this, that's why I'm here asking, but it would seem that I have nothing to lose when I go in for my final check. You see, a week from this friday, I go in for my final check. I am assistant manager at a golf course and absolutly despise the boss. She has made the last year of my life miserable, and instead of going out with a handshake, I'm thinking of going out with a literal bang. Because, I live in Pensacola county Florida, and my flight to my new life in Hawaii is 11am a week from friday in Tampa. So, two hours before the flight, I get there at opening at 9am, noone else is there, I get my check, rough her up a bit then high tail it out of there. This is my opinion: Even though Tampa, the location of an airport is a neighboring county, the process of extradition remains nonetheless. So, even if she can tell the police I'm there (Which I do not believe she would know), there would be way too much legistical stuff to be able to get me before the flight takes off. (Even if they did, i could pay my bail, then leave, and consider it worth it.) As single mom collecting child support, we can rule out her suing. She would not only have travel expense that she likely cannot afford, but there's absolutly no way on earth she can afford an attorney who can take on the one I hire. Not to sound like I'm gloating, but I can afford any attorney on earth, she cannot. Expect her to not even consider civil action. I don't like her attitude, but she's not downright stupid. Last but not least, this IS a repost. I'm asking again because last time everyone was talking about extradition. Consider it this way: The DA is going to pay out of his budget, provided by taxpayers, to have me extradited all the way back from Hawaii over a simple assualt charge. He's gonna cover the expense of my arrest in Hawaii, and pay to put me on a plane, and fly me halfway across the pacific just to get to the west coast, than transfer planes on or two times back to tampa? Simple assault charge? I think we can rule out extradition of that distance for 90 % of all crimes. So, am I foolproof.

so why do you entrust them with things like health care, or retirement, or education, or motives for war? http://www.examiner.com/x-11888-Pittsburgh-Republican-Examiner~y2009m6d30-Abolishing-the-Federal-Reserve-for-your-benefit Jesse, no I have a source from the Bureau of Labor Statistics

my sister is sick and said she cannot take time off or early retirement because she has recently re-mortgaged her home-but I thought all mortgages carried some sort of "assurance" in case of illness,death etc!

Have a good look at this, http://www.theboxinghistorian.com/awards/p4p-history.html Ring Magazine voted Floyd Mayweather ahead of Manny Pacquiao 8 of 10 years for the P4P best in the 2000's. For three years straight from the year 2000-2002 Manny Pacquiao wasn't even in the top Pound 4 Pound rankings. Manny Pacquiao was Never voted ahead of Floyd Mayweather as Pound 4 Pound best until after Floyd retired. Floyd Mayweather has been ranked in the top 10 P4P every year of the 2000's expect for 2008, His retirement year. Floyd nine times, Manny 7 Floyd was voted the Pound 4 Pound best 3 times this past decade. Manny twice. This past decade Manny has 1 loss & 2 draws, Floyd undefeated. Maybe numbers do lie... John B; Your absolutely correct. JON; I don't see how your analogy applies. However, looking at both links you & I provided, EVERY "expert" has Floyd Mayweather ranked ahead of Manny Pacquiao 8 or 9 times out of the 10. Kenny & Nepster; I agree with you both to some degree.

Most Americans are divided today. Liberals vs. Conservatives, Hippies vs. Suits, the list of polarities is endless. George Washington warned us about the European bankers intent to use this type of division to distract us and prevent us from focusing on the priority of watching over our government. Most of us agree the U.S. government is a corrupt structure and a growing number understand how the European bankers have manipulated our Federal Reserve, and central banks of most nations, to control us, bankrupt us and steal our property, or as Jefferson said "Your children will wake up homeless in the fields of the nation your fathers conquered." Many people propose riots, civil unrest etc., and many radio and web hosts are revealing these trends, but talking about it doesn't solve the problem. It will require action and soon - we are a bankrupt nation today where 80% of stimulus for renewable energy went to foreign corporations instead of to U.S. communities to create jobs and reduce our reliance on oil. This is just one area our leaders have failed - the list is growing and even folks like Willie Nelson and Jessie Ventura know it. The question becomes "How do we correct the course of our nation without a violent revolt?" Voting and waiting 4 - 6 years is far too slow, and the train wreck economy and looming fiscal disaster is at our door - it surrounds each of us every day. This question, above all others, to me anyway, is the most important question of the 20th and 21st century, both for our nation and the planet; for without answering this first, nothing else mankind does will matter much. Its not likely the bankers, oil, chemical and drug companies are going to manage the global environment, our water supplies, standard of living, retirement accounts, oceans and habitats for the benefit of humanity and other species. They've failed miserably in their half-hearted attempts thus far, but for us to care for our nation and planet, we need to be solvent, continue to learn and become more enlightened - as our founding fathers had hoped - and therefore, if we are to cure our nation's ills and help heal a torn planet, I believe we are going to have to start with Washington, our State Governments and local governments with a rapid series of reforms that are mandated - demanded - by citizens. The critical word - "rapid" - isn't in the vocabulary of most politicians at the Federal level - which means the word "revolt" will soon be the word of the day. To me, this is a step backwards, an admission of our failure as citizens and prima facie evidence of the failure of our leaders to create and manage a sustainable, "enlightened" government. Is there an alternative to armed insurrection and revolt to "take our nation back", or is this the natural course of history - as also predicted by Jefferson? It is not true that a government - any government - can stop a mass movement. It is true that they can disrupt small groups. However a large, UNITED, coordinated citizen body is without any solution except to either heed their will - or slaughter them - which in theory would enrage those remaining, and thereby trigger the revolt this question aims to avoid, as I do not believe destructive violence is the best course of action. It would indict us all as animals, incapable of resolving this within the framework of the "enlightened" government structure we are blessed to have. How do we work within the system we have without destroying the fabric of our nation or pressing our leaders to turn our own military against us? (which begs another question indeed).

I am thinking of working with the elderly when I graduate from college. I don't want to be a nurse or anything and was strongly thinking about becoming an Activities Director. I love being around older people and always have. I only have 8 classes left in my liberal arts degree. Does anyone know if I need any further education after that? If so what kind of degree do I need? I have been doing research on the internet about this but am unable to find out what I need to know. I will be shadowing an Activities Director at a local retirement center in 2 weeks. Though she is gone on vacation and I am getting impatient because I am so curious about this career. If anyone has any information feel free to leave a comment. Thanks!

we are re-fitting a bathroom in a retirement flat on the 1st floor of the building. the bathroom had a bath which was sat fairly high which allowed the waste pipe to have a decent fall and allowed good removal of waste water. however, the customer wants a shower only and no bath. we cannot get a decent fall on the waste pipe due to shower tray being sat lower than bath for easy access for elderly person. we have solid concrete floor so we need to fit some sort of gulper pump to suck the water out rather than push it out. the pump needs to have a flow switch for automatic operation and connected to 230v supply. we are wanting to hide this pump in the unit below sink so it must be fairly small. the shower is on the left, basin unit in middle and external wall to right, so pump will be in the middle. has anyone had similar situation or know a pump for the job any answers appreciated, thanks for your time.

What's with all this you need to quit Hogan, garbage? They've been playing this up on TNA all the time. Monday night Hogan told this daughter (Brooke) that was the last time he would wrestle in the ring. Now, I don't think that will be the actual last time he wrestles but.... They are obviously putting some angle where Hogan will either really quit wrestling (and just work in a non-wrestling role) or, it's just some gimmick that will allow him to comeback wrestling full-time. What's going on here? Do you think they will do a monster retirement (for good) match with Hogan and Flair?

They have been searching around, and are looking for a place with fun weekly activities, social gatherings, and a place that allows cats. They are narrowing it down to a few places and have asked me which one i like most. This is one of the retirement homes, and it looks like the activities would be fun for them. It is called Living Our Life Retirement Resort. And it has a very neat website. www.LOLtrain.com I really think that this would be the best one to live in. Any thoughts?

I am a 30 year old woman with six year old twin sons. My mother divorced my father when I was eight. She remarried and her new husband was very emotionally and verbally abusive towards me and her. She had a son with him when I was ten. I raised my brother because she worked two jobs and I basically did all the work at home, from cooking, cleaning, bathing my brother, doing homework with him, etc. My relationship with my stepfather was nonexistent. I hated him for how he treated me and her. He called us all types of names including, whores, bitches, etc. However everytime I stood up to him, she defended him and beat me instead. They both were so strict that I never went to a movie theatre with friends until I was 18! When I turned 18, I decided I couldnt live there anymore so I decided to dorm in college. I worked and went to school. I learned how to become independent and I loved it. When I was 22 she finally divorced him, but my relationship with her was nonexistent because we stopped talking because of him. So I made the first step to try to fix things with her. Except she thought she could still tell me how to live my life. She hated my exboyfriend, hated my career choice, hated the fact that I went out on weekends with friends to unwind, etc. She called me a wild child. My exboyfriend was physically abusive of me and when we broke up, I found out I was pregnant with my sons. She asked me if I was going to have an abortion...why? I had a career, I was independent, I can have my children as a single woman and raise them as a single woman. After a while she warmed up to the idea of being a grandmother and she asked me to move in with her because she wanted to help me with my sons. So I did. I thought that I was finally going to build a relationship with the woman who gave birth to me. We had more downs than up while I was there. I couldn't go out ever because now I was a "mother' and mothers don't get time for themselves, I literally became the cleaning maid for her and her spoiled son, and every chance she could she would say how she had a house and a car and everything at my age and that I didn't have anything. I had my apartment, my brand new car, my career..are you kidding me?? I payed her "rent" because I felt it was the responsible thing to do as a grown up and it helped get her out of foreclosure. Two times her house went into forecloser and I saved the house with my 401K retirement money. (It was easily more than 10K) I began to date someone when my sons were three and it didnt work out because he cheated on me. She loved him and so bc I broke up with him, I was not putting enough effort. Shortly after I began to date the wonderful man who I am currently engaged to. She called me a whore because I was jumping from man to man. She also didn't like him because he was legally seperated and getting a divirce. I left her house and moved into my own place with my children and soon after he moved in with us. I was so happy and finally felt like i was living my life with my family and then I found out she was diagnossed with stage IV intestinal cancer. She was sick, and losing her house. All of the money I put away for my own first home, I gave to her to save the house. My fiance forgave her for the way she treated him and we all agreed it would be best if we moved into her house so that I can be there to help take care of her. I finally thought this would be the turning point for her and I and I was finally going to get the value I thought I deserved. She was never loving, never affectionate, and at her weakest she began to show signs of love. For eleven months all I did was be her caretaker. (Chemo, radiation..I did it all) I paid her bills because she was barely recieving from s.s. and my lazy brother didn't have a job. My fiance helped fix up the house, and did what my eighteen year old brother slacked on. My mother asked for forgiveness for judging him wrong because she saw how good of a man he really was. I helped my brother fill out college applications and a job. In the meantime, I had decided to return to school myself, so I was juggling work, my sick mom, my children and school. My brother began to drink heavily and I tried many times to talk to him. Later I found out he was starting to smoke marijuana, so I confronted him. My mother became so crazed with the fact that i called her son out on being irresponsible and not helping any of the situation we were in she began to attack me. My sons, my fiance and i literally began to live in our bedroom from morning till night and never stepped out. She stopped talking to us and my brother (her precious son) would look at me and laugh as i walked by. I even overheard her trashtalk me to her family and friends that "She's only mad cuz I didn't die yet." It broke my heart. My own mother was bad mouthing me..I couldnt believe it. One Sunday this past December, she came into my room and demanded I pay her almost twice what I was paying in my own apartment

Im 19, live in NJ & just dropt out of medical school for medical assisting, i feel really bad/guilty about it.

I mean...when did the last time retirement match mean anything at sports entertainment? Terry Funk wrestled after his, Randy Savage won the WWE title a year after his, Taker returned after being banished, and the last but definitely not the last, Ric Flair wrestled after his. See what I'm talking about?

The baby boomers are nearing retirement age. Social Security and Medicare funds are getting low. The only way to satisfactorily to pay for it all is to raise taxes. A lot of taxes. Congress and the president can't reduce the benefits by much because all the baby boomers and older Americans are pretty faithful about voting. So if any congressman wants to stay in office he better not vote to reduce benefits too much.

Ok i have asked this before in a different way and i am asking again maybe someone can give me some insight. I know about the VA and we have a lawyer we see tomorrow but i was just trying to get and idea. We are worried about keeping our medical right now were sitting at80% disability rating with 75% of our base pay on temporary retirement where he will have to go in every 18 months for review and it can get changed. I know you keep you medical benefits at where we are sitting now what is the lowest rating you can go to for your disability rating i think it is 30% and still keep your medical benefits. I know if you get less than 30% they give you a pat on the back and a severance package but over i believe you keep your benefits. Am i wrong does anyone know because i cannot seem to find it in any info about it anywhere. Oh also does anyone know if we keep our dental?? HELP PLZ!

I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a Minor in Special Education. I am working at a day care and I make half as much as I should be... I cannot find a job in my area due to potential teaching retirees waiting for their own great retirement incentives. I substitute taught for a year, but the schedule and pay were so up-in-the-air, so I had to find something a bit more stable... I settled for this current job in a day care and I cannot find anything in Elementary Education! I have two kids, a mortgage, student loans, bills, etc. to pay for and what I have now is not cutting it!!! My husband has a Bachelor's in Science and Technology and he searched everywhere for a job. He settled for selling Red Bull out of the back of his Red Bull truck. We don't know what else to do. I'm online every night looking for a job and no luck... every day... every day... I broke down today on my lunch break today. I was balling. I am literally getting depressed because I tried so hard in college. I made Dean's List several times and I am in the same professional and monetary position I would have been if I had never went to college. It's depressing beyond words friends. Any kind words are appreciated. Thank you. I'm so afraid that if I found a job down south, my husband wouldn't be able to find one--or vice-a-versa.

My husband and I were living together in the same home when he retired and I was excluded from his social security and medicare benefits because i have not reach retirement age yet. I wanted to file head of household on my tax return because it was clear to me that I am on my own but mainly because we have minor children in the home and need the credits.. I was told I could not do so because my husband had to be living out of the home for 6 months..? Since that is one of the test that must be met and requires that we have "a separate maintanace decree" I just could not understand why the IRS and S.S. don't know or understand that they already seperated us.If we file married , they go in and recalculate our taxes by using my little gov. pension to see how much his S.S. is taxable and I don't think that is fair either since I do not share in any of his benefits. Neither of us have outside jobs. Do you think this "wifeless" S.S.entitlement letter my husband received for himself "only" is considered a "seperate maintanance decree"? Is this one of the reasons seniors would get divorced in their retirement" Shame !Shame!

Would lebron send Dirk into his retirement without a ring?

i'm in a foreign country away from my family. i'm in my early 40's. medium built. doing 50 push-ups every other day. been here for 7 months now. i started feeling pain in my right ribs 4 months ago and i thought it was only muscle pain or the weather then (8 degrees C) and it was tolerable then. i haven't had any accident. then the pain escalates now to the point that i'm shouting in my pillows because i don't want to be heard by my co-workers adjacent to my room. i don't want to go to hospital for fear that the result will lead to my early retirement. i couldn't afford to go home early because of our present economic plight (i still have to pay a lot of debts back in my home country and my family still needs remittance) and i'm almost sure that the result would be serious. recently, sores on my right ribs appeared and the pain is almost unbearable especially on nighttime. i virtually could not sleep when it attacks at least thrice a week. i could still work though, in each and every attack. just tell me what's causing this pain. professional opinion please. i really don't want to go to a hospital. and i am ready to endure this. thank you.

Floyd Mayweather, after retiring for nearly two years returned to the ring & topped one million in PPV sales in a clear lopsided mismatch. If Manny Pacquiao only does 700,000 in PPV sales as Bob Arum projects, will he be more likely to retire or give in to Floyd Mayweather's demands?

I was wondering what would be best as investment. I'm 24 now and I had my savings account with chase for long term retirement. They are saying I should change the account around since the 13month is due to open in two months. I agreed cause the interest is .25% with no change. Chase said a money market would be best, but I don't want to put all the money there. I was wondering, do you think the money market idea is good at all? This is for long term investment like 4 decades from now. Should i put some money in to ING Direct Orange CD? Is there another place with higher interest return?
