For 11 years, we have lived beside my aunt and split the yard down the middle, knowing the property line was somewhere between, not exactly sure. We want to sale our house now, and we think the line goes right thru our carport. How do we handle this?

I am helping my sister with her resume and am unsure whether to leave it as a functional resume or if I should switch it to a reverse chronological. I believe I can better present her experience in the functional (it's actually more of a combination) format, but I know that it is a deterrant for some recruiters.
I realize that functional resumes can be seen as an attempt to hide deficiencies or irregularities in employment history. My sister has an honors bachelor's degree in English, and is looking for a writing/editing type job. She completed her degree a year ago (after several years) but worked while completing her degree part time. She only has one substantially relevant job experience, and the job title does not accurately reflect her responsibilities. I am concerned that if she lists her work experience and education first, then recruiters will see those points first (one year since graduation, and an irrelevant job title), and not proceed to see her true skills/experience

I co-host a local radio program every Saturday morning. The show is about investing, finances, retirement and wealth planning, etc.

I have a source for information that comes out every Monday, but that news is outdated by the end of the week.

I'm looking for something has has just news-bites... two-three-four sentences long. Sources would be great as well.

I don't want links to CNN Money, Yahoo Finance, etc. Those will give you thumbs-down. I need a site (even if it requires a subscription) to give a listing of news, aka "The Week in Review."

I work as a property manager for a man who owns about 150 houses. He has decided to retire and sell of all but a few of his homes. I have my real estate liscense (my boss is a broker) and he agreed to give me 1.75% on all the homes I sell. As homes become vacant we get them ready to put on the market. I listed two homes in the MLS and began spending weekends and evenings showing the properties and holding open houses. He accepted an offer on one home within a week (I didn't even get a chance to hold an open house) from a buyer working with an agent from another office. Weeks later another buyers agent submitted an offer on the other house which he accepted. He feels he owes me nothing because I did not personally find the buyers. I want compensation for my time and professional work- i.e. listing the house, measuring sq.ft., finding comparables, advertising, etc. I want 1.5% of the sale price on each house. He feels I deserve nothing. Does anyone know a fair solution?

I'm planning out my 2007 contributions. I'm going to put in 4k right away in the beginning of the year, just not sure what to invest in.

Right now I have a little over 4k in an international real estate fund (started in 2006).

My husband and I are moving out of our apartment in order to save up for a home. We just graduated University, and are moving in with his father.
We gave our landlord 2 months' notice, even though we were not on a lease. We had lived there for 3 and a half years.
Because of our financial problems (student loans!) we cannot come up with the full rent for tomorrow.
Do you think it is okay to give the landlord half the rent tomorrow, and the other half on the 10th, when we both get paid?
We are in a jam.

I work for a company that does pool plumbing and we have far too much paperwork flowing through our office. Our scanner does not process quickly enough (it wouldn't save anytime). I am looking for new ideas to streamline our flow of paperwork. Any ideas are appreciated.

If you know of a model of scanner that does the job quickly, I would love to hear from you!

What used to, and still gains high praise in production and
boardroom meetings, is hurting this country. It's outsourcing and
it's gotta stop! It started as a low-cost alternative to costly wages
for repetitive and low-skill labor. It has now become a blackhole
to suck every high-wage engineering professional job into it's grip.
I admit, the U.S. workforce would want rapid pay increase and
more breaks - a lot of standing around, but we're imploding on
this deadly practice. Now China will pay 10 Billion for a number
of AirBus planes, but they require that the planes are built entirely
in China. Why buy the milk when you can get the whole damn cow?

Well,I used to work as a male nurse here in Italy until I decided to move to London to learn English.Now I've come back to Italy for 3 years and ever since I used to work as a hotel receptionist.That's simply because i learnt some English and since I've been told i'm quite fluent,I just consider it a shame to put it down.I wasn't happy working as a nurse and would like to find a job to use my English.The job as a receptionist was a seasonal job in a hotel where I worked with no days off and for even 12 hours a day.What else should I look for?
