Soon, scandal and tragedy would ruin his career, but the Park Inn would remain, one of his last Prairie style structures. This unique film traces the life, death, and possible rebirth of a Midwest downtown through the prism of the Park Inn.From 1926 to the present, the Park Inn witnessed alterations and downgrading, while Mason City dealt with an economic downturn in the 1960s and a decaying reputation in the 1970s. While the city struggled to fund renovations of the Frank Lloyd Wright hotel in the 1990s in an effort at heritage tourism, it also attempted an economic revival with a $20 million tribute to the musical comedy The Music Man, which was set there. As a last resort, the city decided to place the Park Inn on Ebay. Which vision of Mason City will prevail? Through a blend of rare archival footage, period music and a comparative look at stunning Wright masterpieces in the Midwest and Japan, The Last Wright raises issues of the sustainability of landmark structures and offers a provocative, ironic tapestry of a century in an American city.

Debt Consolidation Canada
For Debt Consolidation Visit
Debt is not a new phenomenon. It has been here for as long as humanity itself. However, how we manage our debt has evolved over the years. For example, people no longer have to slave for feudal lords just because they could not pay up their debt. Nowadays, creditors are civil about how they collect their debts. In other words, they use lawyers and the courts.
You will never have to deal with bankruptcy lawyers if you learn how to manage your debt well. This is especially true in the modern economy that we live in. Now, you can actually consolidate your debt instead of having many creditors. Debt consolidation comes with many numerous benefits. Here are some of these benefits.
- Debt Consolidation Offers Single Payments to Your Creditors
Each financial transaction that you make has a certain cost attached to it. Making payments to your creditors is no exception. This means that you will incur a cost with every transaction that you make to each creditor. These transaction costs can be very expensive if you have many creditors to pay. You can avoid all of these costs by making single payments to a debt consolidation company. Your debt consolidation company will then disburse your funds to the relevant creditors.
- Debt Consolidation Gives You a Greater Bargaining Power
Negotiating with your creditors can be a very frustrating experience. They rarely listen. In fact, they usually ask for higher interest rates when you ask for a longer repayment period on your debt. Conversely, they will ask for a shorter repayment period on your loan if you ask for a lower interest rate. This cycle will go on and on just because you are an individual. In the end, you will have no longer but to accept what your creditors say.
- Debt Consolidation Helps
However, the presence of a debt consolidation company changes everything. You will now able to negotiate better terms with your creditors if you decide to consolidate your debt. This is because the presence of a debt consolidation company assures your creditors that they will receive their money in due time. This makes them more flexible as you negotiate terms with them.
Consolidate your debts today. Avoid the embarrassment of bankruptcy lawyers and the court system. Debt consolidation works.

Economic history of the United States | Wikipedia audio article
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Septic Tank Inspection 101 - It Passed!
One of the requirements by our mortgage lender was to have the septic tank inspected. The seller pays for this inspection. We had already paid for a home inspection, and only a few minor electrical problems were found and quickly repaired by the owner. Anyway, this is our first experience with an older septic system, specifically 40 years old. The process of inspection and the exact location of the septic tank covers and drain field was important to us for future maintenance and landscaping. Needless to say, we were elated that the septic system passed the test! Once we move in, we plan on replacing the buried tank covers with above grade risers for easier access.

Auburn Coach Wife Kristi Malzahn Agrees with Match & eHarmony: Men are Jerks
My advice is this: Settle! That's right. Don't worry about passion or intense connection. Don't nix a guy based on his annoying habit of yelling Bravo! in movie theaters. Overlook his halitosis or abysmal sense of aesthetics. Because if you want to have the infrastructure in place to have a family, settling is the way to go. Based on my observations, in fact, settling will probably make you happier in the long run, since many of those who marry with great expectations become more disillusioned with each passing year. (It's hard to maintain that level of zing when the conversation morphs into discussions about who's changing the diapers or balancing the checkbook.)
Obviously, I wasn't always an advocate of settling. In fact, it took not settling to make me realize that settling is the better option, and even though settling is a rampant phenomenon, talking about it in a positive light makes people profoundly uncomfortable. Whenever I make the case for settling, people look at me with creased brows of disapproval or frowns of disappointment, the way a child might look at an older sibling who just informed her that Jerry's Kids aren't going to walk, even if you send them money. It's not only politically incorrect to get behind settling, it's downright un-American. Our culture tells us to keep our eyes on the prize (while our mothers, who know better, tell us not to be so picky), and the theme of holding out for true love (whatever that is—look at the divorce rate) permeates our collective mentality.
Even situation comedies, starting in the 1970s with The Mary Tyler Moore Show and going all the way to Friends, feature endearing single women in the dating trenches, and there's supposed to be something romantic and even heroic about their search for true love. Of course, the crucial difference is that, whereas the earlier series begins after Mary has been jilted by her fiancé, the more modern-day Friends opens as Rachel Green leaves her nice-guy orthodontist fiancé at the altar simply because she isn't feeling it. But either way, in episode after episode, as both women continue to be unlucky in love, settling starts to look pretty darn appealing. Mary is supposed to be contentedly independent and fulfilled by her newsroom family, but in fact her life seems lonely. Are we to assume that at the end of the series, Mary, by then in her late 30s, found her soul mate after the lights in the newsroom went out and her work family was disbanded? If her experience was anything like mine or that of my single friends, it's unlikely.
And while Rachel and her supposed soul mate, Ross, finally get together (for the umpteenth time) in the finale of Friends, do we feel confident that she'll be happier with Ross than she would have been had she settled down with Barry, the orthodontist, 10 years earlier? She and Ross have passion but have never had long-term stability, and the fireworks she experiences with him but not with Barry might actually turn out to be a liability, given how many times their relationship has already gone up in flames. It's equally questionable whether Sex and the City's Carrie Bradshaw, who cheated on her kindhearted and generous boyfriend, Aidan, only to end up with the more exciting but self-absorbed Mr. Big, will be better off in the framework of marriage and family. (Some time after the breakup, when Carrie ran into Aidan on the street, he was carrying his infant in a Baby Björn. Can anyone imagine Mr. Big walking around with a Björn?)
