WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT RENTERS INSURANCE

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - If you are thinking about renting, there are many questions that might be on your mind, such as whether youll have a good landlord, what your neighbors will be like and how youll come up with the money for your security deposit. With all this to consider, it can be easy to overlook the obvious -- like renters insurance. Renters insurance satisfies a real need that many renters dont even realize they have. For example, a small kitchen fire or an unattended candle can easily cause thousands of dollars in damage, said Kathy McDonald, senior vice president, Assurant Specialty Property. For instance, according to the National Fire Protection Associations latest figures, residential structure fires accounted for $7.1 billion in property damage in 2010 -- an average of nearly $18,500 per fire. If youre looking to rent a house or apartment, heres what you need to know about renters insurance: * Renters insurance is affordable and easily fits into your budget, no matter how tight it is. Renters can easily protect their belongings and enjoy peace of mind for as little as $4 a week. * As a renter, you are financially responsible for damage to your unit if its a result of negligence -such as fire, smoke or water damage (via plumbing or AC issues, not flooding due to excessive rain). * Many property managers now are requiring renters to have liability coverage. And renters insurance includes a liability component in case a mistake or accident of yours causes damage to a neighboring unit. Liability insurance also can cover injuries if someone is hurt in your home and needs medical attention. * Some renters insurance policies cover burglary, lost or stolen luggage while youre traveling and even items taken from your car. * If you move, policies can be transferred to new communities and locations without a lapse in coverage. And for those renters who are worried about making their security deposit, there is some help. Many apartment communities offer residents the option of making a one-time bond premium payment instead of putting down an expensive security deposit, with a program such as SureDeposit. Renters insurance is an easy, affordable way for renters to protect what they own. Replacing your belongings after a fire or other disaster can be a costly burden. Why buy the same TV twice? With the right renters insurance program, you dont have to. To learn more about how to select the right renters policy, go to www.rentersecurity.com. For info on SureDeposit, go to www.suredeposit.com.
work to develop a financial plan that will achieve your goals. He or she will want to know about your income, savings, debt and life insurance coverage. Your attitude toward risk, different types of investments, need for security and financial priorities will also be examined. In preparation for your meeting, you should be ready to discuss these subjects. Life events: A new baby, job loss or purchase of a home affect your finances and should prompt conversations with your financial advisor. Market fluctuation: While the recent economy has instructed investors to stay the course, its important to address any concerns you have about the shortand long-term effect on your portfolio. Tax law: During the first quarter of the year, ask your financial professional about any changes to the tax code that could affect you. College funding: If you have children, dont be reticent about reviewing your strategy for saving for higher education. Life insurance: Ask your financial professional to evaluate the amount of coverage you have and whether your policy aligns with your needs and goals. Regular conversations are key. Its important that you set the expectations for the kind of relationship you desire with your financial professional. Because your financial plan should not be a once and done transaction, youll want to set up regular visits to address any changes in your life that would affect your plan. You might be satisfied with once-or-twiceyearly meetings, but a quarterly check-in wouldnt be excessive. Finally, make sure your financial professionals goals are aligned with yours.

and operating systems. Another problem is that without a signal, service is lost. On the contrary, with MyMusicCloud, users get an interface that not only plays nicely across the various operating systems but also has the capability to keep on playing without a connection to the Internet. Better yet, users can press pause on one device, then continue listening where they left off on another device. And those dreaded Blackberry compatability problems are now gone. BlackBerry users should be able to simply enjoy their music collections on their devices of choice without having to be concerned with the technical complexity associated with getting those devices to talk with each other, says Koch.

3 EASY THINGS PARENTS MUST DO TODAY TO PROTECT THEIR KIDS

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - The explosions of technology, mobile and social media use among tweens and teens have left many parents increasingly in the dark about what their children see, say and do every day, and without a clue as to what to do about it. The truth is, most children have a hard enough time navigating the potential threats and pitfalls that come with being a tween or teen in the physical world, and the digital component only compounds the situation. Many parents today have NO IDEA what kind of information their teens are accessing and sharing on a daily basis, while most kids have NO IDEA of the potentially far-reaching consequences of their online behaviors and activities. So the question is: How can parents help teens and tweens navigate their physical and digital worlds in a way that will keep them safe and on the right track? 1. Start a dialogue with your teen/tween. Talk about sexting, cyberbullying, hazing and other threatening acts. Make your teen feel comfortable coming to you or other trusted adults if inappropriate content is shared with them. 2. Remember that you own the technology. Communicate upfront that you are the owner of the computer or phone and should have access to it, as well as any passwords used on the device. 3. Learn From Experts. Be sure to set controls on your teens computer and smartphone to monitor usage and activity. For parents looking for advice and to learn from first-hand experiences on how to better protect their teens around technology use and other areas of their life, log onto www.parentingtodayskids.com. The site brings together a roundtable of experts from legal, safety and parenting experts to realworld moms and teens who engage in and offer words of wisdom to address todays parenting challenges. What parents teach their kids now about safe and appropriate online and mobile behavior will help ensure a happy and healthy passage to adulthood.

DR. LUKE, SWIZZ BEATZ HAVE MIDAS TOUCH FOR MUSIC HITS
More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - You may not know them by name, but chances are youve heard their work. You may even be a fan. To date, Dr. Luke and Swizz Beatz have collectively produced hit albums and songs for Britney Spears, Ke$ha, DMX, Katy Perry and Flo Rida, and are currently two of L.A.s hottest record producers. For the last few years, the good doctor (born Lukasz Gottwald) from Providence, R.I., has been responsible in whole or in part for such mega-hits as Party in the U.S.A by Miley Cyrus, Right Round by Flo Rida, Tik Tok by Ke$ha and I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry. In other words, Dr. Luke creates music that, no matter your age, makes you wave your hands in the air, tap on your steering wheel and turn up the music a little louder on your radio. In short, if a recent radio hit was catchy, smacked of bubble gum pop and was irritatingly unavoidable, it most likely was produced by Dr. Luke. Like Dr. Luke, Swizz Beatz enjoys his success while still acknowledging that people are fans of my music more than fans of me ... because they dont know who I am. That may be true, but people do know the company he keeps. Swizz Beatz third album, Haute Living, released last summer, includes an eclectic mix of rock, hip-hop, and R&B stars such as Bono and Lenny Kravitz, Jay-Z and Kanye West and John Legend. This album, according to Beatz, is a far cry from his first work with hip-hop artist and current renaissance man DMX. The two collaborated in the late 1990s, when X was part of hip-hops notorious Ruff Ryders, creating an aggressive sound that led to multi-platinum success. Since then, DMXs famous legal problems slowed his music career, but X is only gearing up for more with a new independent label, Big Jake Music. And Beatz hasnt forgotten his friend of more than a decade. To underscore his loyalty, Beatz recently produced Xs seventh studio album, Undisputed, which includes hip-hop heavy hitters such as the late Notorious B.I.G., aka Biggie Smalls. Of DMXs comeback attempt, Beatz said, Expect the unexpected. Expect the new and improved. Expect hip-hop. Expect real music. Expect the Dog to be back. For more information on X and his album, Undisputed, visit www.bigjakemusic.com.
PUT YOUR HEAD IN THE DIGITAL MUSIC CLOUD

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - When it comes to storing digital music files, people are often confronted with the dilemma of choosing which type of operating platform to use. In many cases, people find themselves stuck in the i-opoly -- the monopoly-style hold of Apples iTunes on digital music -- of the digital-media world. Worse yet, users find that their digital music use is limited to certain devices based on their operating systems. Well, this no longer has to be the case. The cloud movement has opened a new door to the world of digital music. Having the ability to store your digital files in one central virtual location was the first step. The second step: accessing and playing those files from various devices across different operating systems -- according to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, about 73 percent of iPad owners have another type of mobile phone other than an iPhone. One company, MyMusicCloud, may be the first to accomplish this feat. MyMusicCloud extends the simplicity of enjoying your treasured music collection stored on Dropbox by allowing you to hear it anywhere you go on any mobile device, tablet or PC, says Tamir Koch, CEO for TriPlay. Additionally, MyMusicCloud provides an incredible user experience via a music player interface displaying users playlists, albums, artists and tracks. Other cloud music services, like those from Apple, Amazon, Google and others, suggest the potential for making streaming digital music to mobile gadgets an everyday tool. However, they frequently dont cooperate across different devices
SMALL-TOWN PARK NAMED AMERICAS FAVORITE -COULD YOURS BE NEXT?

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - Last summer, the small town of Minot, N.D., was severely damaged by a record-breaking flood. As Minots 40,000 residents struggled to put their lives back together, many found solace in trying to rebuild their beloved Oak Park. Oak Park anchored the community and provided a place for friends, families and neighbors to be active and enjoy the outdoors together. Every summer, the park was the setting for concerts, a farmers market and more. The sense of loss was profound among residents, mourning memories in the park washed away by the flood. So, last summer when Coca-Cola launched the America Is Your Park campaign, park lovers in Minot seized the opportunity to rally behind Oak Park. Park supporters from around the country cast more than 13 million votes for their favorite parks during the campaign. No one could have imagined that this small park would beat out thousands of others to become Americas Favorite Park and take home a $100,000 recreation grant.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INCREASES LOSS OF ESSENTIAL MINERAL

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - Most adults know that daily cardio is great for burning fat and reducing stress, but you may not know that a rise in sweat output can cause an increase in your loss of essential minerals, such as magnesium.* People drink water after they exercise to rehydrate, but individuals need to replenish more than just H2O. Mineral loss through the excretion of sweat and urine is increased during prolonged exercise. Due to how much they sweat, its crucial for endurance athletes with low magnesium intakes to replenish their magnesium levels.* Endurance athletes sweat at a rate of one to oneand-a-half liters per hour. They also have greater risk for magnesium imbalance because of a high excretion rate and the length of their training sessions. For example, in 70 degree weather, the average loss of magnesium via sweat during a 40 minute-run is over seven milligrams.* Magnesium is necessary for many different reasons, especially energy and endurance needs. It activates enzymes known as ATPases, which are needed to transfer and release energy for muscle contractions.* During exercise, adequate levels of magnesium, maintained by a healthy diet and a daily supplement such as Slow-Mag Tablets, can really come in handy. This process is what produces the energy source needed to exercise efficiently. Low levels of magnesium may be associated with limited energy efficiency, reduced metabolic efficiency and increased oxygen consumption and heart rate during aerobic activity.*
Studies have shown a relationship between sweat magnesium loss and muscle cramps.* An astounding 7 out of 10 Americans dont get enough magnesium from their diet. The amount of magnesium you need each day is based on your age, sex and other factors.* Since magnesium functions in many processes necessary for exercise performance, it is important for athletes to have adequate magnesium levels. To help figure out if youre meeting the daily requirement, use the magnesium calculator at www. slowmag.com. How much magnesium are you getting each day? Learn how you can supplement what youre missing. Plus, there are articles and videos on why magnesium is necessary and how to get more of it--all available online.
fractures or head trauma. In addition to potentially losing their independence, seniors 65 years old and up have a 25 percent chance of dying within six months to a year if they fall and break a hip. Seniors are vulnerable to falls for many reasons -eyesight and reflexes arent as razor-sharp as they used to be, not to mention the balance issues posed by diabetes, heart disease, thyroid conditions and various medications. One of the most effective ways to preserve balance is to stay active with an exercise regimen. Ask your doctor about exercises designed to improve balance, stability and overall mobility, such as moderate yoga. But, another preventative method recommended by physicians is installing a shower or tub built around the unique needs of elderly adults. For example, Safe Step Tub Walk-In Tub Companys new walk-in shower has a foldable chair, flexible shower wand, grab bars, ultra-low step up and other senior-friendly features. And since the cost of retirement is high for many seniors, installation is included in the price. To find out more about these showers and walk-in tubs or to request a free brochure and DVD, visit www.safesteptub.com/news Besides a customized shower or bath, NIA and the American Geriatrics Society advise the following bathroom safety precautions for seniors: * Non-slip rubber mats in front of sink, toilet and shower/bath. * Grab bars inside and outside of shower/bath and on either side of the toilet (these are much stronger than towel racks, which arent meant to support weight). * Bright lights that are easily accessible.
PREVENTING SENIOR FALLS STARTS IN THE BATHROOM

More Sharing ServicesShare | Share on facebook Share on myspace Share on google (NewsUSA) - More than one in three seniors over age 65 fall each year, and the National Institute on Aging (NIA) says 80 percent of these falls are in the bathroom. Due to the multitude of unforgiving and slippery surfaces, bathrooms are very hazardous for the home. Knowing how to get in and out of tubs and showers properly and equipping homes with necessary safety precautions can reduce senior falls, keep them out of the emergency room and possibly extend their life. According to research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1.6 million older adults seek emergency care each year for fall-related injuries,
