 The importance of having a credit history does not need to be explained.  You must have at least 6 months of credit history in order to start accumulating some credit history in the USA.  Here is a list of the best options to build your credit:  Become an "authorized user" on someone else's credit card Apply for a secured credit card Apply for a secured installment loan Apply for a retail store card Become a "joint" borrower on someone else's installment loan Apply for a high interest/high fee credit card designed for applicants with no credit history Someone (usually a family member) can add you to one of his or her credit cards as an "authorized user" simply by requesting it by phone call to the lender.

Pacific Palisades is a quaint seaside community situated between Brentwood to the east, Malibu to the west and Santa Monica to the southeast. The town is currently home to around 30,000 residents. It is an extremely prestigious and affluent community, home to many Movie Stars and high level business execs.  In the "Village", as the locals refer to the small commercial district on and around Sunset Boulevard and Swarthmore Avenue, there are many fantastic restaurants, stores, banks, and offices.  The city is built for outdoor enthusiasts, with picture perfect weather almost every day of the year and a few great parks and many hiking trails.  The town has been dubbed as "Where The Mountains Meet the Sea." 10/24/2007

I was reading the Home Depot Gardening site and ran across this very helpful information... The formula for designing new gardens is simple, and it all begins with a plan. A plan allows you to complete stages as your budget allows and make sure that what you do this season won't have to be undone next season. Collect pictures of scenes that please you. Tastes vary. Some people like precise formal gardens, some want to play croquet on a big lawn, others like the informal country look. Take an inventory. Do a "floor plan" of your property on a piece of graph paper. Consider your needs and preferences. Do you want to improve your view? Would you like to increase your sense of privacy? Are there unsightly areas you'd like to screen? Strive for convenience. If you plan to grow fruit, vegeta... 08/31/2007
