Are You Getting a Good Deal on Insurance?

(ARA) - Had a major life change recently, like moving out on your own for the first time, getting married, welcoming a new baby into the family or purchasing a new car? If so, you're no doubt very busy, but don't use that as an excuse for putting off one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your family.Anytime you have a major life change, you owe it to yourself to review your insurance needs. You may be able to save money or improve your coverage by getting multiple quotes quickly and easily on line with a company like NetQuote.com. No need to call up or visit several agents' offices to get rate quotes. Just fill out their form which asks for some basic information about your insurance needs. Once you complete the form, NetQuote will match you up with four-to-six companies interested in doing business with you. Some of the contacts will be local agents; others from the big national insurance carriers. They'll all have quotes to offer which you can then compare to make sure you're getting the best deal out there.

Tucson hopes to hold on to D-Backs, Rockies

by Craig Harris - Feb. 22, 2009 12:00 AMThe Arizona Republic

Spring training could have a future in Tucson after all.
Southern Arizona leaders are working on legislation that would let Pima County voters decide if they want to raise sales taxes to build a new stadium and spend money renovating the existing homes of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies.
The move comes in response to the Chicago White Sox departing this spring for a new stadium near Glendale. Executives for the remaining teams have said they don't want to stay in the Old Pueblo if they are the only squads in southern Arizona, and both squads are considering proposals from communities near Phoenix.
