The Internet is an exciting tool that puts vast amounts of information at your fingertips. With the click of a mouse, you can buy airline tickets, use research tools, chat with friends or play interactive games.
But there are also risks on the Internet, so it’s important to be cyber-smart and make your experience online a safe one. It is critically important that parents supervise their children’s Internet use. As we’ve seen all too often, trusting children are particularly vulnerable to sexual predators and other cyber-criminals.
What is an abandoned vehicle?
Vehicles are considered abandoned when they are left for twenty-four (24) hours or longer within the limits of a highway, on property open to the public, or on private property without the property owner’s consent. This definition excludes instances when an owner or operator cannot remove a vehicle and has notified a law enforcement agency and requested assistance.

Reverse mortgages are becoming popular in America. HUD's Federal Housing Administration (FHA) created one of the first. The Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) is FHA's reverse mortgage program which enables you to withdraw some of the equity in your home. The HECM is a safe plan that can give older Americans greater financial security. Many seniors use it to supplement social security, meet unexpected medical expenses, make home improvements and more. You can receive free information about reverse mortgages in general by calling AARP toll free at (800) 209-8085.
