Wages for High School,

College Graduates Fell

in Last Decade

     A recent study shows median wages for both high school and college graduates have fallen over the last decade. According to the Economic Policy Institute, the years 2000 to 2009 marked a "prolonged period of wage stagnation." Earnings for high school graduates dropped an average three dollars per week, and earnings for college graduates dropped an average five dollars per week. The wage stagnation preceded the current recession, with wages falling even as the nation’s economy expanded from 2002 to 2007. Speaking at a factory in Kansas City on Thursday, President Obama said he thinks the U.S. economy is headed to recovery.

   President Obama: "And I’ve said since I took office that my administration will not rest until every American who is able and ready and willing to work can find a job and a job that pays a decent wage and has decent benefits to support a family. We’re not there yet. We’ve got a long way to go. But what is absolutely clear is we’re moving in the right direction."

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Placement and attitude are changes that can arrive without warning, be on guard. You can pursue idea of another if they aren’t. Your preparations are lacking plans to compliment alternatives.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You can and may offer to help to one who needs it and has the ability to return the favor. Finances are always on the radar but pay particular attention to yours for the  time being.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Desperation is becoming the norm and you know those who are becoming use to it. You will feel it for yourself if not already. Time to trim out the fat and make peace with the way things are becoming. Lucky number is 1. 

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): When the time comes for you to go right or left and you’re not sure about the direction, turn around and go back home. It will otherwise be a greater waste of time. Someone is searching for you, get found.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You be graded and passed over. The difference could have been made early on when you weren’t interested. Opportunities are becoming few and far between and should be realized asap. Pay attention to yourself.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Outing provides an escape from the routine and brings freshness to all participants. Go! A timing issue will later cause complication that is handled and not avoided. 

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Unexpected enrichment is yours to keep. You may want to share it but pay the bills first. Climate issues are becoming a concern that is inescapable for you. Pass that on to other you are concerned about.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A shock to the system of yours is in the works. You’ll learn of something new that alters the way you look at your job and the work you do. Pleasing another is on your agenda or should be. 

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Money and love are highlighted in the current phase. Be careful someone want both from you and not in any particular order. Both should be held onto tightly and guarded. 

Aries (March 21-April 19): Don’t move for the fix. You are you and that you can’t  change. The fix is with you or has to come from you, location is not the issue.  

Taurus (April 20-May 20): A person will deal you right and you’ll make a friend. Just like other friends don’t lean on them enough to mess them up. Holly one is full of it, avoid that one.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): you are good at carrying the load no matter it’s weight. It breaks you down and you recover keep up the good work and things will lighten up eventually. Love is near and hidden from you.

     A U.S. district judge in Massachusetts has ruled the federal ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional because it interferes with a state’s right to define marriage. The ruling came in the cases of two separate challenges to the so-called " Defense of Marriage Act" of 1996. The ruling applies only to Massachusetts but could have broader implications if upheld on appeal. Democracynow.org

 

Untidy Beds May Keep Us Healthy

     Scientists believe failing to make your bed in the morning may actually help keep you healthy. Research suggests an unmade bed is unappealing to house dust mites thought to cause asthma and other allergies. A new study has found they cannot survive the warm, dry conditions found in the average unmade bed that could be home to up to 1.5 million house dust mites. INNworldreport.net
