If you weren’t aware, World Alzheimer’s Day is coming up soon, on September 21st. Thanks to The Harrah’s Foundation, there has never been a better time to raise money and awareness about Alzheimer’s Disease. They are going to match all funds given in September up to a million dollars! This terrible illness used to be a death sentence, but with better treatment options there is extended hope for Alzheimer’s patients. Scientists even hold out hope for a cure, but this support and research cannot go on without contributions. Patients of Alzheimer’s need Champions for their fight, and you can be just that by hosting your very own Purple Party!

Purple is the color of the fight against Alzheimer’s, so have a Purple-themed party and invite all your friends to raise money and awareness about the issue of Alzheimer’s. There are plenty of party-throwing tips that’ll have you raising money at a fun Purple Party. If you register your party with ActionAlz, you also gain the ability to make a cool website for the party, as well as access to online donation sites your guests can use to contribute. Your guests will even be reminded via email when the date is.

Now is the best time to raise money and awareness about this important cause. Come to ActionAlz.org to see party-throwing tips that’ll have you well on your way to a successful, socially responsible Purple Party!

During my search for things I needed for my international trip, I found out a useful tool I could bring along to help me stay organized. One of the biggest problems I have when I take a trip somewhere is organization - I spend half the trip getting unpacked and comfortable so I never really get to relax a hundred percent. Now, this travelpro device offers people like me some hope by helping keep everything simple.

Election season is fast approaching, so what is one to do if they are fed up with politics as usual? The current political climate is ripe for upstart candidates with new ideas. This doesn’t mean you have to file papers for President. There are plenty of smaller races you can have a legitimate shot at winning with the right message and people skills. My only advice to potential office seekers is to distance yourself from President Bush, as he isn’t exactly the most popular person to be linked to right now.

Loans have been empowering consumers since recorded history. Borrowing money is just about the only way most of us can afford to get necessary big ticket items like cars and homes. However, some people run into trouble because either they or the lender underestimated the ability to pay. It’s a good thing not all is lost for someone who has run into trouble paying back their loans: there are plenty of viable options to get people back on their feet financially, such as a refinance. These options and other help people who have had bad luck with mortgage loans. Loans can cause some people trouble, but they are a necessary financial tool that isn’t going anywhere!

I thought I’d share with the readers a good way to stretch out the alcohol supply if you are responsible for it at a party. Of course no one wants to look cheap by bringing the cheap vodka in the plastic jug, but get it anyway. Your wallet will thank you later, as this ten dollar bottle of two liters will make a lot more Screwdrivers than the smaller Grey Goose. Get a little good liquor to serve as the primer, then serve sub-standard alcohol the rest of the evening.
