Bills Getting You Down? Apply For a Debt Relief Grant and Let the White House Pay Them for You
The United States is currently going through what most economists hail as the 'worst economic downturn since the Great Depression'. Some economists even suggest that it may rival the Great Depression in its global impact. In the wake of the sub-prime mortgage crisis and the collapse of Wall Street, unemployment in the country has skyrocketed, leaving many families with no steady source of income and a growing stream of bills to pay.
The Obama administration has demonstrated its awareness of the situation by announcing a large amount of money in its stimulus package to be spent on government grants for debt relief to individuals, companies and local governments. Every year, Congress sets aside billions of taxpayers' dollars for government grants and these taxpayers' dollars are finally trickling back to the taxpayers. There are now various government grant programs in operation, most specifically targeting certain types of debt. There are programs to help individuals pay off medical expenses, car loans, student loans and even the odd grant to help out with your intimidating credit card bill.
However, the government grant package has been somewhat exaggerated by the media. In reality, there are limited grants available for individuals, with most going to companies or local governments with those individuals connected to these entities set to benefit from the grants. So if you are in debt and you are looking to get some help from the government, this is about the right time to do it. Be quick unless somebody else gets there before you. About the Author

1)President Herbert Hoover believed that direct relief to the needy was the reponsiblity of local government, not the federal government.
True or False
Drect relief was proposed by Hoover??Seems not!
2) The Reconstruction Finance Corporation pumped large sums of money into nation's economy during the Great Depression.
True or False
My textbook says RFC just lent money to big companies and banks. "PUMP" seems to be a word inappropriate
Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon advised President Hoover shock treatment would be the best response: "Liquidate labor, liquidate stocks, liquidate the farmers, liquidate real estate.... That will purge the rottenness out of the system. High costs of living and high living will come down. People will work harder, live a more moral life. Values will be adjusted, and enterprising people will pick up the wrecks from less competent people." Hoover rejected this advice, not believing government should directly aid the people, but insisted instead on "voluntary cooperation" between business and government.

Mexico Is Sinking - by Guillermo Gomez Peña
Mexico is sinking
California is on Fire

But what if suddenly the continent turned upside down?
what if the U.S. was Mexico?
what if 200,000 Anglo-Saxicans
were to cross the border each month
to work as gardeners, waiters,
3rd chair musicians, movie extras,
bouncers, babysitters, chauffeurs,
syndicated cartoons, feather-weight boxers, fruit-pickers, and
anonymous poets?
what if they were called waspanos,
waspitos, wasperos or waspbacks?
what if we were the top dogs?
what if literature was life, eh?
what if yo were you

As it is invested in the markets, which carry risks, can't a 401(k) go to zero in a recession or depression?
What goes up must come down, and I believe this has to be true for the financial markets, so would it also be true for a retirement account such as a 401(k), IRA or Roth IRA? Even if you don't agree that the markets could have a substantial correction (much more than 10 percent), please answer this question assuming that it could happen. And if it did, could any of the three accounts above lose a majority -- or even all -- of its holdings? If so, which -- if any -- is the safest?
The bottom line is that these are types of investment accounts that you use to buy financial assets. You can lose as much as you would directly investing in these assets through a regular brokerage account. In other words, 401(k), IRA, or Roth IRA accounts are just investment vehicles, but you are subject to all of the risk of the stocks or mutual funds you buy. Yes, you could lose everything you own!

Emergency Self-Care Plan for Abuse Survivors
Abuse survivors, when they are going through rough times, are likely to find self-care difficult. Here is a checklist to guide you through those tough days.
1. Spiritual care. Pray. Read sacred scripture. Be involved in a 12-step program. Whatever your beliefs, spirituality nurtures a person's heart and soul, all that is good within oneself. Begin and end the day with spiritually caring for yourself.
You are worthy of care from your Higher Power. You are a new creation being nurtured by our Beloved Creator.
2. Personal hygiene. Make sure you bathe, shampoo, and brush your teeth. Sounds obvious doesn't it? Yet, these are the things that go by the wayside so easily. This is a good time to treat yourself to a bubble bath or fragrant body wash and shampoo.
A corollary is to wear clean fresh clothing every day. Dress up not down. Sloppy clothing reinforces self-negation. Attractive clothing reinforces good self-esteem.
You are worthy of tender loving care. You are a precious treasure, a rare jewel.
3. Nutrition. Have a "Healthy Emergency Menu Plan" planned and written down for the difficult days, and have foods stocked. Breakfast might consist of yogurt, applesauce, a piece of toast, and a glass of orange juice. For lunch try a garden salad, banana, a bowl of soup or half a sandwich, and a glass of milk. At dinner, make sure you have a piece of good protein, a vegetable, small potato or rice, a fruit, and a glass of milk. Need more calories than this simple menu provides? Add them wisely. Write them down on your emergency menu plan.
Stay away from fast foods, salty foods, and sweetened foods. Don't turn to alcohol. Drink plenty of water, around 8 glasses a day. Mint tea will help soothe the stomach and the nerves.
You are worthy of good health. You are an unfolding, beautiful lily or a cactus flower.
4. Exercise. What is important is to have an ongoing fitness program that you especially rely on during the rough days. Physical activity helps ground you in the present, and it relieves depression. What will work for you on an ongoing basis? Join a fitness program. Take swimming lessons. Play tennis. Are you a runner? Do you ride bicycles?
You are worthy of being fit. You are a frisky colt or perhaps a chestnut stallion.
5. Laugh. I'm not kidding. View humorous DVDs, CDs, old TV programs, or read books that make you laugh. Do you know that author, Norman Cousins, cured his cancer by making sure he laughed every day. The endorphins released by laughing lift depression, and ease both physical and emotional pain.
You are worthy of laughing heartily. You may not be a dancing elephant, but how about a dancing giraffe?
6. Self-Affirmation. Do you value yourself? Survivors have great difficulty in valuing themselves. When I was a teenager and young adult I covered my mirror, and would not look at my reflection in store windows. I hated myself. I had suicidal thoughts at times. It has been a life-long process to learn to believe in myself. Doing self-affirmation breaks open the rock shell of self-hatred and self-negation and lets the light come in.
Start a written list of self-affirmations, even if you don't believe them. Here are some starters: I am worthy of tender-loving care. I am worthy of good health. I am worthy of being fit. I have gifts and talents. I am a child of God. I am worthy of good healthy relationships. Add to your list. Write a hundred affirmations. You are worthy of at least that many.
You are worthy of developing your gifts and yourself. You are a soaring eagle, an unfurled flag.
Having an Emergency Self-Care Plan is essential to abuse survivors' well-being. All survivors experience periods of depression that are accompanied by loss of self-worth and self-care. This Emergency Self-Care Plan provides a checklist to follow when times are tough.

What do music therapist do exactly while in session?
I work with chronic bipolar, major depression, and schizphrenia clients. Im looking for an informal lesson plan. I need details on hhow to do this to at least keep them intertained.
A typical session—group or individual—may be structured like this:
Opening or greeting song—signals that the session is starting
Sing along song—involves the client in the music-making process and promotes relaxation and breathing
Dance or movement activity—initiates the client physically with the session
Sing along song—keeps the client focused while relaxing from the physical task
Percussion improvisation—establishes a basic, rhythmic musical activity
Sing along song with hand motions—combines musical focus, rhythm, and motion
Musical improvisation piece with client-friendly instruments—encourages the client to experiment and to explore their creative selves
CD listening task, such as "Name that tune" or "Name that artist"—challenge a client's memory, and cognitive and processing abilities
Sing along song—relaxes the client while maintaining focus
Closing or good-bye song—signals the end of the session
Based on the age and needs of the client, a session runs a minimum of 30 minutes (children and young adults) to a maximum of 60 minutes (adults and seniors). The length of a session depends on the attention span and focus of the client. The frequency of the sessions (daily, weekly, monthly, etc.) is determined during the initial assessment, which generally runs longer than a typical music therapy session.
The length of a group session would depend on the number of participants. Groups can range in size from as small as 5 clients to as large as 40 people.
Sessions are adaptable to the involvement and interest level of a client. For example, if a client really enjoys or responds to a particular segment, the therapist may continue that activity. Music therapists are trained to be sensitive to clients' needs and responses, and adjust sessions accordingly.
Clients are encouraged to become involved in the music making process during a therapy session. The therapist strives to create an atmosphere and environment that encourages clients to actively participate. Music listening and sing along song activities are integral forms of musical involvement and part of a typical session.
The main instruments used by the music therapist to lead a typical session are piano (keyboards) or guitar. Electric keyboards and guitars have become more portable and are the preferred choices. Advances in computers and technology have afforded many client-friendly instruments, such as the Suzuki QChord. A wide variety of drums and percussion instruments are also effective in promoting client involvement.
Music therapy is the prescribed use of music and musical interventions in order to restore, maintain, and improve emotional, physical, physiological, and spiritual health and well-being. Within this definition are the key elements which define interventions as music therapy.
Music therapy is prescribed by members of the client's treatment team. Members can include doctors, social workers, psychologists, teachers, case workers, or parents.
Music is the primary therapeutic tool. Using music to establish a trusting relationship, the music therapist then works to improve the client's physical and mental functioning through carefully structured activities. Examples can include singing, listening, playing instruments, composition, moving to music, and music and imagery exercises.
Music is administered by a trained music therapist. A music therapist's education and training is extensive. Musical interventions are developed and used by the therapist based on his/her knowledge of the music's affect on behavior, the client's strengths and weaknesses, and the therapeutic goals.
Music therapy is received by a client and it targets a wide range of clinical populations and client ages.
Music therapy works towards specific therapeutic goals and objectives. Goal area include communicative, academic, motor, emotional, and social skills. It is important to be aware that while clients may develop their musical skills during treatment, these skills are not the primary concern of the therapist. Rather it is the affect such musical development might have on the client's physical, psychological and socio-economical functioning.

Best Jobs During The Great Depression
First of all, in order to discuss this topic thoroughly, we should be equipped with the correct definition of "flexible". In my point of view, the real meaning of "flexible job" is the job which doesn't disrupt your daily work, or as a college student, your class assignments, meanwhile could offer you some extra money in your pockets and helpful experiences in your resumes. As far as I am concerned, the flexible jobs do not necessarily call for certain skills, of course if you are a master in some sorts of fields, you choices will be more plentiful, and your leisure time will turn out to be more effective. For instance, if your major is computer engineering, you will be an ideal candidate for a popular job programmer.
Second, I want to address the necessity of finding a flexible job. No one can deny the fact that money is an everlasting lurk for human being, in order to be affordable to a long-dreamed cell phone or PC or increase your account deposits, you deadly need a flexible job. Besides the substantial need, your resume will be outstanding if decorated with a bunch of previous working experiences.
Third, to be practical, it is the high time to illustrate the feasibility of finding a flexible job and I am here trying to find an answer for where can we find the best source for flexible jobs. As college students, busy with homework and social relations, we are not allowed to send resumes everywhere or participate in various interviews. So, resources from the Internet appear to be an optimal channel. As long as you can get access to the Internet you can find tons of information about flexible jobs are waiting for you. The convenient Internet and professional job-finding websites can make your flexible jobs possible. Here, I have to draw your attentions to one intractable problem. Do not be trapped in some fake website which aimed at cheating you, they usually ask you to hand in sum of membership fee and then disappear or put you into valueless jobs. Which can lower your chance of being cheated is to do research as much as you can, then compare different kinds of websites or programmers, weighing their pros and cons, at last make you own choices. I have to admit that it is not an easy task to ascertain the true on from millions of websites, but you have to. Taking myself as an example, I would like to choose the website which enjoys many recommendations and the founder is warmhearted who is sincerely devoted into helping people to improve their lives instead of impersonal business man.
In the end, I want to add something or tips about how to pick up the fittest job for you. We can divide the jobs into two categories: no skilled needed and skilled needed. If you are more interested in the skilled jobs, you can easily find more details of this job from the website. Different jobs call for different requests; you must be clear about what you are seeking for.
It is too numerous to list the advantages of finding a flexible job. The most significant key point is looking for the best source for flexible jobs that is your first step!

Federal Home Loan Mortgage - the Great Depression Era Success!
If you are a first-time homebuyer or a buyer who has had a foreclosure in the past couple of years, you may want to look into a federal home loan mortgage. A federal home loan mortgage or FHA Loan is a loan that is provided by a private lender but insured against default by the Federal Housing Administration. This type of loan has some major advantages over traditional mortgage loans.
One advantage that an FHA mortgage has is the more relaxed credit-qualifying guidelines. Because the FHA's mission is to promote home ownership for low to moderate level income level families they can help people get a loan with little or no down payment. Instead of the 10% often required for standard loans a 0%-3% maximum is needed for a federal home loan mortgage.
In the past, regardless of your FICO credit score, you could qualify for a FHA mortgage. Although that is still technically the case today, with the recent government Stimulus Package in 2008, a minimum 580 FICO score has become the generally accepted lower limit for loan approval. The Stimulus Package also raised the maximum loan amounts available significantly on a per county basis. You will need to contact an FHA lender who can tell you the specific maximum amount available in your area.
An FHA mortgage generally has very favorable interest rate and is usually lower than a conventional mortgage. Because the loan is guaranteed against default by the federal government, private lenders are more willing to reduce the interest because their risk has lessened. A lower interest rate means you can save thousands of dollars over the life of the loan.
Another advantage of an FHA loan is that you can still be eligible if you have had a bankruptcy or foreclosure in your past. Eligibility for a new home mortgage requires that the declared bankruptcy occurred at least 2 years ago, foreclosures must have occurred at least 3 years ago and in both cases your credit since that period of time has been good.
Some requirements for an FHA mortgage are that you must have been steadily employed for the past two years and your income should be consistent. You must show that the house you are seeking a mortgage for will be used as your primary residence. You must show that you are responsible in paying bills on time by having credit reports that show less than two 30-day periods of late payments. Also, your monthly mortgage payments cannot exceed 31% of your gross monthly income.
The federal home loan mortgage program has been around since the 1930's Great Depression era. At that time foreclosure rates and loan defaults rose dramatically. The loan program's intent was to provide lenders with a sufficient guarantee that their assets would be protected and thus they could feel reassured to make loans again. The program has been a resounding success and continues to be so today. I urge you to look into this program if you are a first-time buyer or a buyer with less than perfect credit. You can still get a home of your dreams through this program
What are three underlying causes of both the Great Depression of the 1930s and our current economic recession?
Similarities between the two.
1- A “laissez faire” economic ideology that led to deregulation and lack of government intervention in the markets.
2- Bank failures: Banks continue to fail and refuse to give out loans.
3- Reduction in Purchasing: As the economy worsens people have less confidence and refuse to spend money. This in turn causes unemployment since less people are needed to produce for the current demand.

The other side of the life during the great depression
People of the world at present can define what is recession and what is inflation. We all want to survive or recover. We do not want to have another great depression. As described in Wikipedia, the great depression was a worldwide economic downturn from 1929 and ending at different times in the 1930s and 1940s. This happened in most places of the different countries. It was known to be the largest and the most severe economic depression in the 20th century. Whenever there is a decline in the world's economy, that great depression is used as an example of the extent of the decline that the world's economy can actually have. There is always the other side of a story. Therefore, there is also, the other side of the life of the great depression. The other side that I am referring to are the reflections and lessons we can gain from it.
Life during the great depression was not easy. It was at this time that people – rich or poor became very vulnerable to the effect of the great depression. Rich or poor looked for means on how to survive the great depression. Both of them have experienced severe economic financial crisis and both of them sought for a crisis management plan. So, the first reflection that we can have is that reach or poor are affected and that life during the great depression crosses boundaries of culture, money, and race. Our being human is what remains to be there. Second reflection, although the rich people are affected, it is the poor who are greatly affected. Good for the rich people because they still have something to get from their pocket whenever their stomachs are hungry. The poor becomes poorer each day until some are starving already. Third reflection that I have is that people are the ones who cause the great depression and we are also the ones who suffer.
Another side of the life during the great depression are the lessons we can learn out of it. These lessons are:
· Frugality. We should learn how to be thrifty. Let us learn the lesson of the fable “The Ant and the Grasshopper.” The ant saves for rainy days, the grasshopper don't. In this case, who are we then? Are we more of an ant or more of a grasshopper. Prioritize your needs. Never ever confuse your needs and wants.
· Discipline. Control your desires. Do not ever think that because you have a credit line, you will have to engage in debts. Be guided by the quote “Don't spend money you don't already have in your pocket.” More importantly, do not engage in gambling. “A gambler always loses.” If you have money, do not be a one day millionaire. You spend it all for one day and you suffer on the succeeding days.
· Hard work. Many times, we want to avoid chores. Why don't you do the tasks which you can. Imagine how much you will be able to save when you do your part.
The people during the great depression have learned new mental attitude. Aside from the characteristics mentioned above, they were able to realize the value of close relationships with their immediate family, relatives, friends, and with God. The high-priced lesson they have is actually being able to realize that mo re import to material things are the quality of relationships that they build with their fellowmen. And this is the essence of the other side of the life during the great depression.
