I had the opportunity to attend a black belt test for a Kingwood client last week - it was incredible!  Testing for her black belt, Madeline McCreight did an awesome job.  She had to display her forms, participate in sparring and finish up with breaking a board.  Madeline made it look easy!   The Kingwood TaeKwonDo Academy is where Madeline has been taking lessons under the instruction of Victor Jordan, a 7th Degree Black Belt himself.  The lessons help develop self-esteem & self-confidence.  Students learn discipline and self-control in a supportive atmosphere.  And watching the students perform during their belt testing was truly enjoyable. If you are interested in what Mr. Jordan has to offer at the Kingwood TaeKwonDo Academy, call (281) 358-0018 or visit their website  They are loc... 02/08/2010

"One man's loss is another man's gain.This is an old Latin proverb that has been used for centuries.

The era of easy credit standards has finally come full circle, which means the adjustable-rate, subprime mortgages handed out so readily in the past few years will be shifting up to a higher interest rate. Investment analysis firm, Fitch Ratings, estimates that twenty percent of all residential mortgages can be described as sub-prime, which means that a significant number of home owners who are now holding on to their properties by the skin of thei... 02/03/2010
