I will initiate this article by advising people concerned with Medicare that premiums for Medicare will increase from the present $96.40 to $109.10 commencing the first of January, 2013.

Casa Monte Cassino Celebrates 25th Anniversary ALL THAT ZAZZ by Mary N. DiZazzo Gold and Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend! Ciao Bella, The beauty of shopping for jewelry! I mean the real stuff that is a defining experience all its own! I was 19 years old and was ready to purchase my first piece. My hairdressing friends at the time brought me to The Jewelers Exchange Building in downtown Boston. Of course! Because where else on earth would you get a great deal and exceptional customer service? Everyone traveled far and wide to The Jewelers Exchange Building. I remember the rows of shops with glim- mering gold, pearls and diamonds! After viewing many neck chains, bracelets and earrings, I decided on a 30 inch, 14K, herringbone neck chain! The golden shimmer was dazzling! I enjoy it still to this day with various large dangling charms I’ve collected during the years!
