Almost any bank will give you 1/4 percent to 3/4 percent rate reduction just for asking; a quality mortgage broker will be negotiating on your behalf to get these reduced rates.

My favorite way to incorporate turmeric is to use fresh turmeric root. Any large Asian market should carry it in the produce aisle. My quarter teaspoon of dried turmeric recommendation translates into about a quarter inch of fresh turmeric root. I use a grater to add my daily quarter inch into whatever I may be cooking (or right onto a cooked sweet potato), or I throw a raw slice into a smoothie. You probably won't even taste it. Fresh turmeric has a much more subtle flavor than dried. Be careful--it can stain clothing and surfaces. Consuming turmeric with soy may offer a double benefit for osteoarthritis sufferers. [2015] - Michael Greger

I typically use 25 and 75 as my overbought and oversold lines because that way it will include more signals. [2003] - Marcel Link
