Easing into the Golden Years

In this foreboding and challenging life that is unpredictable, complex and wild, only death lies certain ahead and it is a fate and finish line the everybody must cross and face in the future. People work hard in the prime years of their lives and at the peak of their youth, strength, drive and ambition because they want to store up money, riches and material wealth so that they can enjoy life and have a bright and considerably secure future ahead. But after living the fast, furious and high life, people need to face reality and the ravaging effects of time and aging. Senior citizens slowly feel their strength, motor skills and mental faculties slipping away and this can really cause the alarm bells to ring because these deficiencies can lead to accidents and even untimely death if proper precautionary measures are not taken as soon as possible.

Pricing Your House For Rent – Classified For Rent Sites Are Great House Pricing Sources



Determining the rental price or your house for rent is an important decision with classified advertising and what you decide depends on what you are offering.

If you have purchased a rental house with tenants in place, you may not need to advertise your rental home right away.

However, you need to know the rental value when you purchase the rental house. You may have to raise your tenants’ rent to the appropriate local market rates.

If you set your rental rate too high, you may loose your resident. Asking for too high of a rental rate will also cause your house to sit vacant because no one will pay that rental rate.

This is income and money that is loss and that will never be recaptured. Once it is loss you can never gain it back.

In normal market conditions, you need to price your rental unit according to the current market rate. Your rental rate should reflect what the market can bear.

Tenants who are willing to pay rent that is above the market rate usually have bad credit and can’t qualify anywhere else.

If your local market has more demand than supply, you can possibly charge more for rent than during normal market conditions.

To price your rental house correctly so that it will rent quickly for as high as you can, you must conduct some market research.

Find out what other rental units in the area are renting for by checking reliable sources where other landlords and real estate investors advertise.

Plan to raise the price of your house for rent based on their length of residency at the property, other classified ads, condition of the rental home, and the current lease.

Disco Gives Birth To House Music



Disco music gets a bad rap. People decry the genre as a plastic, soulless, producer-driven music fad that deserves scorn for being empty and unfulfilling. Many music fans were happy to see disco die in 1980, but the truth is that disco never passed on. It spawned a new generation of dance music that branched out and evolved into the global phenomenon known as house music. So how exactly did disco give birth to house music? Here’s the story.

So a gay guy and a black dude walk into a warehouse….just kidding! Well, actually that’s not too far off. Here’s the short version.

Larry Levan started spinning disco records together at those crazy Paradise Garage parties in New York.
Soon after Disco Demolition Night (when white kids killed disco at a White Sox game), Chicago started developing a new, electronic, drum-machine happy sound.
Frankie Kunckles brought his gay-friendly crate of thumping disco tracks to Chicago and the kids got into it. Stuff like “Let No Man Put Asunder” from First Choice rocked the Warehouse in 1983.
Soulful, bangin’ disco tracks collided with what-the-hell-sounding beats from Jesse Saunders, Farley Jackmaster Funk and a bunch of other DJs, remixers and record producer types in Chicago.
All the kids wanted to buy the records that were playing at the Warehouse in Chicago, and after some abbreviating — the house music label was born.
In Detroit, Juan Atkins (/Cybotron), Derrick May and Kevin Saunderson originated a techno touch alongside the Chicago house music sound.

If you want to learn more, there’s a video on it — Pump Up the Volume. This documentary outlines the history of house music’s muddied origins. From swinging disco tracks to squelching, experimental knob-turning, to the base kick of techno’s first producers, this three-part video has it all.

Pump Up The Volume – History of House Music – Part 1

Part 1 starts with Larry Levan and the Paradise Garage and goes through the early house music scene in Chicago.

In Part 2, you can learn about how Brits got hold of the stuff and used their Northern Soul infrastructure and connections in Ibiza to club the music out to the Euro masses. Detroit’s take on house also gets attention.

Part 3 takes you through some of the more recent house music scenes, you know — all that splinter faction definition label stuff. Anything Goldie says is hilarious, and Armand Van Helden seems like a pretty chill dude.

Sure, these Google vids don’t offer the best presentation. And yeah, some of the music you’ll hear is a bit wack, but this documentary from 2001 is a bridge that connects the house music of today to the disco classics of yesteryear. Understanding the details of this evolution will give you a greater appreciation for the ever-evolving history of dance music.
