    HOUSE PASSES AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT (ARRA)
    February 13, 2009 - The U.S. House of Representatives

    The House of Representatives has voted 246 to 183 to jolt the nation's struggling economy with a $787.2 billion stimulus package, designed to provide quick tax relief and create or save some 3.5 million jobs. The Senate passage is expected to take place later today, and President Obama is likely to sign it the following week. It will provide up to thirty-three weeks of additional jobless benefits in high-unemployment states, funds to help the poor and those with disabilities with health care costs, and payments of $250 to retirees, supplemental security income recipients and veterans who get pensions or disability payments. The ARRA is also known as the Stimulus.

    FIRST U.S. QUINTUPLETS
    February 13, 1875 - Watertown, Wisconsin, U.S.A.

    The first well-documented U.S. birth of quintuplets was five boys born at Watertown, Wisconsin, to Mrs Edna Beecham Kanouse and her husband Edward. Though the babies appeared normally developed, one was stillborn, three died within minutes of delivery, and the remaining one survived only a few hours. Their total birth weight was 10-lb 2-oz. The doctor, and the father who fetched him arrived after the birth, delayed by heavy snow. The mother had another child several years later, and died a few months thereafter from a contagious disease contracted while caring for a sick friend. Until the 28 May 1934 birth of the famous healthy Dionne quintuplets in Canada, the longest known survival of a quint was 55 days, born in Lisbon, Portugal (1866).

Save Your Relationship: Steps You Should Adopt To Have A Successful Relationship.

A relationship is similar to a mirror, a simple crack will just break it off. It needs to be handled with care. A perfect relationship is not easily achievable; you should be very dedicated and committed to it. Simple misunderstandings which remain unsolved may mess it up. But it is always possible to save your relationship, even if it is falling apart. Obviously, if you do nothing about it, then there is no magic formula to have a successful relationship.

If you want to save your relationship, start by thinking about all the good moments that you have spent together. This is the best way to motivate yourself to save the relationship. Start by picking up the problems, because it is hard to fix a relationship without knowing what?s wrong. Hence it is better to note down all the reasons why you think you are facing so much troubles. Together with your partner, you should talk about these issues and look for solutions. Never leave a problem unsolved, it'll worsen with time, better solve it at once.

p>Another important thing, while saving your relationship is to listen to your lover. Be a good listener if you want a successful relationship. Your views, opinions and thoughts should be shared in order to avoid conflicts and arguments as well. After solving all the problems between both of you, it is vital to apologize for hurting the feelings of your partner and also promise that these troubles won?t happen again. And finally offer yourself a nice holiday somewhere, where you?ll be alone and away from the world to discover each other once again.

Misunderstandings and conflicts cannot ruin your relationship. What?s important is to identify the problems at the right time and look for solutions. To keep your relationship working, you need to have healthy and truthful communication to maintain trust.
