official -- 2011 was rock bottom for new home sales in America. Just
over 300,000 new homes were sold last year, and that’s the fewest since

account for 10% of all sales but are important to economic recovery
because home building creates jobs and new tax revenue. Source Link
If
your boss is stressed and taking it out on you, tell him to hit the

to vent their frustrations toward subordinates. Only moderate exercise
one or two days a week was necessary to help ease the tirades, and the
type of exercise didn’t matter. Source Link

help fans make the most of the trip to Indianapolis for the big game. A

assist the 150,000 people expected to visit Indianapolis for Super Bowl
46 on Sunday. Source Link
