  1. Fear of gay-marriage backlash far-fetched

    Even U.S. Supreme Court justices care what people think about them, experts say. In their current same-sex marriage cases they fear a big public backlash if they overreach. But history shows such fears to be greatly exaggerated when a controversial decision's time has come.

  2. Look before you leap into buying vacant house

    <strong>Q: I was negotiating with an owner to purchase a property containing a vacant, boarded-up house. Over the years, the owner would occasionally come into town and clear the weeds, as he lived out of state. During one of these visits to his property he and I engaged in discussions for selling. He looked into finding the property value with a local Realtor before heading back home. Six months later I learned that he unfortunately passed away.</strong>

  7. No blubbering from Beavers despite guilty verdict

  8. Couple gets taxed for tapping IRA; how to pay?

    <strong>Dear Liz:</strong> Help! We've just received devastating news from our accountant that we owe around $11,000 to the IRS and the state for 2012 taxes. The reason for the huge bill is that we cleaned out my husband's IRA to pay for our son's college expenses. My husband is almost 65 and working part time after being laid off, and I'm 61 with a full-time job. What is the best way to pay this bill? Here are the options I can think of: 1) Cash out my three-month emergency certificate of deposit of $12,000 that I've saved to cover expenses in case I get laid off. 2) Take money out of my IRA. 3) Use a credit card check that will be at zero percent for the first 12 months and then will slide to 8.9%. 4) Arrange a payment loan with the IRS. 5) Sell our house in which we have 70% equity. Which is best?

  12. Sequester cuts hurt, but slashing waste shouldn't be hard

    A week into the dreaded sequester, all sorts of doom are being predicted. As threats of service cuts grow, political fingers remain pointed in partisan blame. All of the politicians are responsible, yet none will take responsibility, though many agree the arbitrary spending cuts are, as the president said, dumb.
