It is almost impossible these days to get a job in this economy. Without a college degree the chances of being well-employed are fairly low. Competition for jobs is fierce, and where it used to be that they might only need a high school degree, they may now need a college degree to get jobs that actually only would require a high school degree. As time moves on, workers will need to keep furthering their education in order to stay competitive. That means not just a bachelor’s degree, but a master’s degree and beyond. However, the problem comes when it is time to pay for college. College runs into the tens of thousands of dollars per year. It is almost impossible to get through college without some type of student loan.

The typical student looking for a student loan is under the age of 20 and probably has little to no credit. In this case it is hard to get student loans without a cosigner. A cosigner is almost always necessary. A cosigner acts as a guarantee that the loan will be paid. However, if the only hope is someone with bad credit or if there is no potential cosigner, it is possible to get student loans without a cosigner.

If the prospective student is on their own, or an older adult, they can still get student loans with bad credit or if with little to no credit history. There are agencies that specialize in student loans with bad credit. They may have to pay a higher interest rate in the end, but they can still find a loan to meet their college needs.

Student Loan Solver is here to help all perspective students find that loan. Discover what types of loans are available, where to get them, and the best way to apply. In a world where competition is fierce, everyone needs a good education. Don’t think that just because they may have poor, or even no credit, that school is out of reach for them. Visit Student Loan Solver and find solutions to student loan problems.

WATERLOO, Iowa — To Rick Santorum, the economy, education and
health care are core issues in the 2012 presidential election.

He says he forms views on all three based on beliefs in God and
personal responsibility.

A crowd of about 20 came to Cottonwood Canyon, a downtown
Waterloo coffee shop, on Monday to hear what he had to say and
press for his thoughts on health care, education and the
economy.

His message focused heavily on the economy, where he said he
wants to spur manufacturing in the Midwest by cutting corporate
taxes, slashing regulations and encouraging US coal and oil
production.

Santorum thinks the expansion of the federal government leads
corporations and individuals to depend more on Washington.

“The government gets bigger and bigger and bigger as we become
less disciplined and less moral,” Santorum said. He went on to say
the Dodd-Frank financial regulations came about because of immoral
practices on Wall Street. He believes the more Washington
determines winners and losers, the less people depend on their own
moral compass.

When it comes to health care, Santorum wants to see insurance
reserved only for major illnesses.

“One of the big problems in health care is you’ve been insulated
from the cost of health care,” he said. He thinks people would make
better decisions on their own health care if they knew the true
cost. Only then could health care costs come down.

He told the crowd Monday that health savings accounts are the
future of health care.

Santorum has been hanging near the bottom of polls in Iowa,
despite spending more time in the state than other candidates. He’s
banking on his hard work in all 99 Iowa counties to pay off when it
comes time for Republicans to head to caucus sites in January.

Jim Raatz, a retired businessman from Waterloo, expects to go to
the caucus Jan. 3, but hasn’t settled on a candidate. At least in
this election cycle, he’s finding he has to do some work to
identify his candidate.

“I consider myself a moderate Republican. None of the candidates
consider themselves moderate these days, they all say they’re
conservatives,” Raatz said.

Elizabeth Hageman of Cedar Falls expects to go to a caucus and
liked what Santorum had to say. She wants a candidate who can
succeed at reducing the role of government.

“I think the federal government got too big. It needs to get
smaller and if a Democrat would be able to do it I might vote for
them,” Hageman said.

However, that perception is often quickly shattered once we leave our shores for Europe and try to pay for something with an American-issued credit card.

Rejected.

Why? Because while American swipe-and-sign credit cards still come with the classic magnetic strip verification system, much of the rest of the world has long moved on to chip-and-pin cards built with microchips. Virtually all of Europe, as well as many countries in Asia and South America, have embraced the chip-and-pin system.

Hence, when traveling, American credit card users find it very difficult to purchase train tickets, pay at highway and bridge toll booths, parking lots, gas stations, and similar situations where only automatic dispensing machines are available.

Education Foundation awards mini-grants

The Edenton-Chowan Education Foundation awarded six mini-grants totaling approximately $2, 560 to teachers and staff in the Edenton-Chowan School System during the Board of Education meeting held on Nov. 7.

Foundation President Joy Denton noted that the grants awarded this year will fund a wide range of classroom projects focusing on literacy, the use of technology, cultural awareness, and life skills.

Holmes High Schools for Discovering the Key to Success: Positive Role Models amp; Goal Setting; and Vann Lassiter, System Technology Facilitator for The Power of Journaling amp; Storytelling Using Webcams.

2011 marked the first year that the Edenton-Chowan Education Foundation awarded grants to teachers, a process that the group plans to continue through continued fund raising efforts.

This years grants were funded through proceeds from the Education Foundation Spelling Bee that was held in the spring of 2011.

Offering mortgages in branches is not proving fruitful for lenders, says Paul Shearman, proposition director of Openwork.

Speaking at a panel discussion on the future of networks at the Expo last week, Shearman told delegates: “The number of mortgage cases being transacted in lenders’ branches only justifies having about one adviser across three or four branches.

“The model of having bank tellers feeding leads to in-branch mortgage advisers is failing and lenders are struggling to get business, which represents an opportunity for brokers.”

Shearman also says the tide is turning against directly authorised brokers because of the amount of regulatory knowledge they need.
He told delegates: “The regulation coming out of the Financial Services Authority, such as the Mortgage Market Review, is intense – the MMR is due to be around 700 pages long. It is a challenge for brokers who are independent.”

He adds that larger lenders are starting to concentrate more on large brokerages and not individual DA brokers.

Also speaking at the debate was Gemma Harle, managing director of TenetLime. She told delegates that ongoing regulatory costs are taking their toll on how much networks need to charge their appointed representatives.

She says: “The charging structure of networks is under threat and the regulatory landscape is creating a financial challenge.”

Ilya Zhitomirskiy, a 22-year-old co-founder of the hyped Facebook rival Diaspora committed suicide this weekend in San Francisco. Now the tech community is reeling, and asking hard questions about the pressure facing young tech entrepreneurs.

Silicon Valley is mourning today for Zhitomirskiy, a recent NYU grad dropout, who by all accounts was a bright, motivated geek with big ambitions. Every time I saw Ilya he had a new plan to save the world. He was optimistic without irony, wrote Twitter design researcher Karina van Schaardenburg.

In September of last year, Zhitomiriskiy told New York Magazine that Diaspora was a project of pure passion. Theres something deeper than making money off stuff, he said. Being a part of creating stuff for the universe is awesome.

But many are also asking the obvious question: Did the pressure of running a struggling, much-hyped start-upnot just any start-up, but a Facebook killercontribute to Zhitomirskiys death?

Burnout is one thing but serious depression is another altogether, writes Bill Patrianakos on Hacker News, a sort of digital water-cooler for the tech industry. The pressure of starting a small local business is enough to drive a person mad. Just think about the guys being covered… the widely known ones, the stars of the tech startup world.

Zhitomirskiy and his three co-founders have been very much rising stars in the tech startup world. Diaspora burst onto the scene by rasing more than $200,000 on the crowdfunding site Kickstarter while they were still at NYU. They attracted breathless coverage from TechCrunch, and managed to sneak a dirty nerd joke into a glowing New York Times profile. Prominent New York Venture Capitalist Fred Wilson kicked in a substantial donationeven Mark Zuckerberg contributed.

Diaspora promised to give users ultimate control of their personal information and privacyunlike Facebook. Share what you want, with whom you want, went the slogan.

But development of Diaspora stalled soon after the initial burst of publicity, as the reality of developing a social networking site from scratch hit the inexperienced teams admirable goals. When Diaspora released its source code, hackers howled at its gaping security holes. Outside of a few appealing screenshots and a closed alpha, Diaspora has only resurfaced recently to ask supporters for a second round of donations because it was running out of money.

Diasporas continuing obscurity has been met with rising criticism among tech insiders. Last month, Newsweeks Dan Lyons wrote off Diaspora as cool, but the sad fact is… most people will still go to Facebook simply because thats where all their friends are. Even the post on Hacker News about Zhitomirskiys death is haunted by Diaspora haters. Its a laughing stock, wrote Hacker News user josteink. As a social network this is a failure on absolutely every aspect I can find measures for.

Zhitomirskiys death adds a tragic undertone to the tech industrys obsession with young founders. Venture capitalists ache for the next Mark Zuckerberg, the bright young guy with an idea that will change the world. The tech press is filled with relentlessly sunny stories about kids who can barely drink selling their startups for obscene amounts of money; Peter Thiel has his crazy scheme to pay kids to drop out college and launch a startup.

As thrilling as it is to watch brilliant young people make cool stuff, its equally as wrenching when things go horribly wrong.

Laurie Abraham is a senior editor at Elle and the author of The Husbands and Wives Club: A Year in the Life of a Marriage Therapy Group, which came out of her last cover article for the magazine, and Mama Might Be Better Off Dead: The Failure of Health Care in Urban America. She wrote yesterdays cover story about Al Vernacchios sex-positive sex education class.

Despite stronger than expected US economic data of late, mortgage rates are falling. Negative news out of Europe and the failure of the US Congressional Supercommittee on debt are roiling the markets, and borrowing rates are coming down as treasuries and mortgage backed securities rally.

The silver lining to this troublesome news is that if you are looking for a mortgage, rates are just above their all-time lows, and you may be able to save a lot on your monthly home payments.

Although fixed rate mortgages comprise the vast majority of new home loans these days, there are some people who may be able to benefit from the low rates on adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs).  The rate on an ARM is fixed for a pre-determined period of time (usually 1, 3, 5, 7, or 10 years). After this period of time, the rate can rise or fall depending upon market conditions.  If you only intend to be in your home for a short period of time, you could see significant savings with an ARM, which generally have lower rates than comparable fixed rate mortgages.

If you have a growing family, and know you will need to upgrade to a home with more space in a couple of years, an ARM may be for you.  Similarly, if you know that you will have to relocate due to work, or if you work on a bonus structure that would quickly allow you to pay off your home, you may want to consider an adjustable rate mortgage.

Today we are able to offer qualified borrowers: 5/1 ARMs at 2.750% with an APR of 2.711% and  5/1 Jumbo ARMs at 2.875% with an APR of 2.695%*.  We also offer 10, 7, and 1 year ARMs.  For complete information on all our rates or products, speak with one of our loan officers today at 877-868-2503.

Mortgage rates change frequently.  The above rates were quoted at 11:37 AM, on November 21, 2011.

*All rates shown are for 30 day rate locks. Longer locks available. The APR for conventional loan amounts is calculated using a loan amount of $417,000, 2 points, a $495 application fee, $500 loan processing fee, $715 underwriting fee and a $16 flood certification fee. The APR for jumbo loan amounts is calculated using a loan amount of $500,000, two points, a $495 application fee, $500 loan processing fee, $715 underwriting fee and a $16 flood certification fee. The APR for FHA loan amounts is calculated using a loan amount of $295,000, two points, a $495 application fee, $500 loan processing fee, $715 underwriting fee and a $16 flood certification fee. Some rates and fees may vary by state. All interest rates listed are for qualified applicants and are subject to mortgage approval. All rates are subject to change without notice.

AUSTIN (KXAN) – A new Texas Freedom Network Education Fund study shows including teaching about contraception with abstinence has increased during the past three years.

It’s clear that more and more local school officials realize ignorance won’t protect our kids,” TFNEF president Kathy Miller said about the new report, Sex Education in Texas Public Schools: Progress in the Lone Star State. So now we’re seeing the adoption of common-sense sex education policies that deal with a real public health crisis and that polling shows most parents support.”

Texas has one of the highest teen birth rates in the nation, at No. 3, according to TFNEF.

• Read the report here.
   

The TFNEF report is based on an analysis of data collected by a Texas Education Agency survey of school districts this past spring.

With more than 1,000 school districts in the state, the analysis shows 25.4 percent of the 677 school districts responding to the survey used abstinence-plus curricula for sex education in the 2010-11 school year. Such curricula encourage teens to abstain from sex but also include medically accurate information about contraception.

A 2009 TFNEF study showed that just 3.6 percent of Texas school districts were teaching abstinence-plus sex education in the 2007-08 school year. Nearly all school districts at the time took either an abstinence-only approach or taught nothing at all about sex education.

According the Texas Department of State Health Services, a teen gets pregnant every 10 minutes in the state. Moreover, teen childbearing costs Texas taxpayers about $1.2 billion annually.

A 2010 statewide poll conducted for TFNEF by the national firm of Greenberg Quinlan Rosner found that 80 percent of likely voters in Texas support teaching about condoms and other forms of contraception along with abstinence in high school sex education classes.

“We are encouraged that local policies are beginning to catch up with public opinion,” Miller said. “But the Legislature and the State Board of Education should also help school districts provide more effective, evidence-based sex education programs.”

Miller called on the Legislature to require that all sex education materials taught in public schools at least be medically accurate and backed by scientific evidence showing that they are effective in helping teens adopt behaviors that protect their health and future.

The State Board of Education should also adopt new health curriculum standards that provide more robust information about contraception as well as the importance of abstaining from sex.
