Looking at the moon is fun throughout the whole year, but International Observe The Moon Night is an event that encourages everyone to study and observe the moon. This year it takes place on Saturday, Sept. 14.

The event began on Sept. 18, 2010. The main purpose of this event is space science and astronomy outreach. This event takes place on a different date each year, held usually in September or October when the moon is at first quarter.

Do you want to save money for your child’s educational needs, but need help learning where to start? Well, let me introduce you to 529 plans; an educational savings plan designed to provide a parent, grandparent, or anyone else an opportunity to contribute to a child’s educational dreams using a tax-advantaged savings vehicle. Today, it is known as a “Qualified Tuition Program” or QTP. In 1996, the 529 plan was created by the United States Congress and has been modified by various pieces of legislation through the years.
