Life is way too short to fritter away on work that you hate.
Don't get me wrong, we all have to do things we might hate from time to time. I have three dogs. As much as I love them, they come complete with dog hair and smelly other chores that are gross.
Ugh. Not my idea of a good time.
Same with my garden. I love my flowers and veggies, but I hate the weeds. I would love for there to be a gardening Fairy to come and pull weeds in the hot, hot sun so I can stay inside in the air conditioning.
I won't even get into the parts of having kids that can be a challenge.
All great things come with chores. Kids and pets have stinky parts. That's the price we pay for sloppy kisses and unconditional love. And one bite of a summer tomato, and I forgive every weed and my aching back.
But what about our businesses?
We talk a lot in creative entrepreneur circles about designing the business and life that we dream of. Those dreams don't usually include the day-to-day boring tasks that make us weary and drain our energies and yet, we still do them.
Some of them, like paper work and accounting, still have to be handled, though I highly recommend finding someone else to take over both of those tasks if at all possible.
The rest of stuff that takes up your time and energy, how important is it really?
In coaching creative entrepreneurs, I have repeatedly seen the same three themes come up time and time again.
- Clients who are no fun and suck the life out of you.
- Projects that are too complex for your skill set that frustrate, exhaust and deplete you.
- Mundane tasks that take too long and keep you away from your creative gift.
All three of these categories are keeping you from the success that you could be having right now! I am talking about you, the start-up business who hasn't gotten the resources yet to hire someone to do all of your unpleasant tasks. You don't have to wait. You can begin right now to shift away those un-fun catagories and move toward having a business you can enjoy right away.
Let's take them one at a time, shall we?
Clients who are no fun and suck the life out of you: Bar none, this is the hardest lesson for new business owners to learn and sometimes it has to be re-learned a few extra times before it sinks in. You do NOT have to work with stingy, selfish, rude, mean, uninteresting, unmotivated and undeserving clients. EVER. Here is the problem that you are probably running into:
You don't realize you are working with the undesirables until they have snuck up on you half-way through the project. That might seem like a perfect example of "Why do these things always happen to Me???" But the answer is that you have not taken the time to create ideal clients and then qualify your potential clients to be sure they fit.
How to work with only clients you enjoy.
- Figure out which clients you enjoy working with. Figure out WHAT you love about working with them. Who is your ideal client, the one who you are excited to go to work to work with? Make a written list.
- Identify the type of people that you DON'T love working with. What is it about them that makes work a drudge? Make a list. Knowing what drains your energy and enthusiasm is a very important piece of clarity to have.
- Create a Qualifier System. This can be a series of questions, a list of policies on how you work, A phone or email interview, or more likely all of the above. The key is to identify the key good and bad issues with potential clients before you take them on. And Here is a hint: If the red flags start flying, step back! You do not need to take on that client. Repeat after me: Bad Clients cost too much money and suck the fun out of life!
Projects that are too complex for your skill set that frustrate, exhaust and deplete you.
- Re-evaluate. Just because it seemed like a great idea at the time, doesn't mean that right now is the right time to be taking on that project. Creative Entrepreneurs love to START new projects a heck of a lot more than they like SUSTAINING them. Ask yourself: Is this something that is sustainable, will I get bored quickly maintaining this? Ask: Would this project be better served by finishing some of this other stuff piling up? Consider rescheduling this when you can focus on the training to do it right..
- Hire. Take a good look at the project. If it is above your skill-set, can you find someone to educate you on the most efficient process? Or do you need to hire someone for one part of the process that will make the project more joyful? Do you need a designer to help you get the look you envision? You may not need – or be able to afford- to hire someone for the entire project, but can you take the pieces that are above your current skill set and get some help?
Mundane tasks that take too long and keep you away from your creative gift.
- Automate, automate, automate. That can mean hire an assistant, but it doesn't have to. You may want to get some help in figuring out systems to make life easier so that the task handles itself. With every new project or system that you create in your business, ask yourself, is there a way that this can happen hands free without my needing to manually do it myself. The answer is probably yes.
- Batch Time and Tasks. For a lot of owners, mundane tasks tend to be procrastinated and hang over their heads for the rest of the week. They cloud up the fun stuff and suck the joy out of business. By scheduling them in Timed Batches, you can thwart the devil of procrastination. Deb and I get a lot done in a week without the help of an assistant. Automated systems help that to happen, but for the tasks that still must be done, we set aside times to focus on that, get it done as efficiently as possible, and then move on to the good stuff. Knowing that we are going to get the boring stuff out of the way first and then get to look forward to doing all of the fun parts of the job for the rest of the week, motivates us to get it done. We don't let it hang over our heads mucking up the good stuff.
Focus on the Fun
I have teenagers. When I suggest that a task or project needs to be done, I am often met with, "Awe, that's no fun!" and a considerable amount of foot dragging. They want life to be a party. They would much rather be part of the "Good Times" than the "Drudge Club".
Do you blame them? At what point in adulthood, did we buy into the belief that, "If it feels fun, it must not be real work" and, "Work is SUPPOSED to be hard!"
Stop listening, and take a cue from the kids.
Find the fun in your business and focus on that, do your best to minimize, re-evaluate or eliminate the drudge. You aren't making money on your drudge list, your future lies in your passion list. This isn't irresponsible, it's good business sense!
And…I promise, you will fall in love with your business all over again.

Best SEO Service – What Search Engine Optimization Can Do For Your Business
Search engine optimization is vital to the success of a website but unfortunately, it is a very confusing thing for new website
owners. Many feel like they can strike out on their own without using professional search engine optimization services while
others feel that search engine optimization is best left to the experts. While search engine optimization is not easy and
techniques for getting top-ranking are ever changing, an ongoing commitment to learning about search engine optimization will save you time and money as well as improving the performance of your website.
Achieving top ranking in the search engines through effective search engine optimization is like free advertising. It is the
most logical way to drive loads of traffic to your website.
Traffic combined with good sales copy and a quick loading website converts browsers to buyers and can skyrocket your sales.
The majority of people that visit a website find the website in the search engines. Moreover, they usually don't browse past the
first two pages in the search results. So using search engine optimization to get top-ranking in the major search engines is
vastly important if you desire the amazing amounts of traffic that the search engines can direct to your website.
A major misconception about search engine optimization is that the alternative to it is to buy your way to the top of the search engines through pay-per-click advertising. There are some definite advantages to pay-per-click advertising because it is
easier to achieve and maintain a top position in the search engines. Also, with pay-per-click advertising you only pay for
click-throughs and you can get listed quickly. But, it can be costly if you fail to manage your pay-per-click campaigns
aggressively and consistently.
The biggest mistake that website operators make in using the pay- per-click search engine services over search engine optimization
is not considering the value of each website visitor. Because you are paying for every click to your website it is vital that your
maximum bid for the keyword does not exceed the value of the click. Without adequate attention to that factor, your pay-per-
click advertising costs can eat up your precious advertising funds rather quickly.
For search engine optimization to work and to work consistently,your website has to be submitted to the search engines initially
and resubmitted periodically. You need to monitor the effectiveness of your search engine optimization and maintain it.
This is necessary because the search engine indexing rules change frequently and such changes can cause your site to move down in ranking without ongoing search engine optimization efforts.
This is an important consideration if you choose to use a search engine optimization company rather than doing your own search engine optimization. Some offer one time services while others offer ongoing maintenance. Unless you learn to retain your search engine position on your own through continued search engine optimization, you will need ongoing monitoring and maintenance services.
Search engines use algorithms to rank websites. Algorithms are simply their rules for determining relevance of a website's
content to a browser's search. Because the search engine's purpose is to serve those looking for information, their
algorithms are closely held trade secrets and aren't made available to those aiming at search engine optimization. This is
what complicates the process of search engine optimization as much of it must be accomplished through trial and error.
There are a couple of things that seem to remain consistent in search engine optimization techniques. Those are the use of
keywords and keyword phrases and obtaining link popularity with relevant links coming into your website. The main advantage of
search engine optimization, naturally, is that having a top- ranked site in the major search engines is effective, free
advertising. The disadvantages are that it may take several weeks after you submit your site for the search engines to index it and
ongoing maintenance is required to ensure that your search engine optimization efforts achieve the results you desire.

Novi Sad, Serbia
FIBA World Championships Under 19: Final
Official U19 World Championships Site
Serbia 74 – USA 69
In a packed gym, Serbia faced nemesis Team USA for the world crown. It was Serbia from the beginning as Dusan Katnic scored his seven points all in a first quarter closing a run that gave Serbia and the crowd a boost with a 22:14 lead. In the second Serbia caught even more momentum as they went on to build the lead up to 19 points with a 14:3 scoring spree that saw Team USA somehow rattled. It was U19 WC MVP Milan Macvan 19pts. 10 reb., who despite his athletic shortcomings, was just too smart for the US frontcourt, killing them with his inside scoring and rebounding and superb positioning and even going outside for some threes that thrilled the crowd. Coach Wainwright took a timeout and regrouped his side that answered the call and took the air out of the crowd with 12 unanswered going into the half with a reasonable gap. Jeremic who played all 40 minutes was hot in the third as his shooting prevented Team USA from digging too deep in the lead and when the final quarter arrived they were still down ten. Deon Thompson carried Team USA on his back in the fourth to pull them within five points with just 1 minute to go. A costly and unnecessary turnover by Beverley 15 pts. 8 reb. then gave USA no chance but to foul and when Stojacic showed jitters, Serbia had Jeremic 24 pts. go to the line and he delivered. The crowd broke lose after the final buzzer sounded and Serbia coming out on top. USA was dreadful from the free throw line shooting only 11/24 for 45 % and only 28% on threes. Serbia even gained the rebounding edge over USA as no one for Team USA managed to rebound in double figures.

New York Times | With Eyes in the Sky, Flight Attendants Fight Human Trafficking
Except from the New York Times:
The nonprofit organization she joined in 2015, Airline Ambassadors International, trains workers at airlines and airports how to spot, and report, cases of human trafficking. It also delivers humanitarian aid around the world and transports sick children who need medical care.
...There were 8,042 reported cases of human trafficking in the United States last year — the most ever, according to a report released last week by the nonprofit organization Polaris. Most of those came through calls to the National Human Trafficking Hotline, which was established by the federal government in December 2007 and is operated by Polaris in a public-private partnership.
The number of reported cases has been rising every year since the hotline was established.
But it is not all bad news, said Bradley Myles, Polaris's chief executive.
"We don't necessarily want to give the impression that just because we're learning about more cases, the crime is increasing," Mr. Myles said. "It's actually possible that the response is getting more sophisticated."
Encouragingly, he added, more and more of these reports are coming directly from trafficking victims, which suggests a growing awareness among those who need it most that the hotline exists.

How 4 Ecommerce B2B Platforms Are Improving to Meet Your Needs
At Brilliance, we want to give our clients options that best meet their needs. We are focused on helping our customers see a strong ROI and assisting them in growing their revenue online.
As we have focused more on building business cases for B2B eCommerce, it is evident that different B2B platforms are needed in different situations and we want to offer solutions that meet the different sizes and needs of our client companies.
So we have expanded the number of software platforms we work with. We carefully selected platforms with strong tools and support for the B2B space, and we have invested in training and certifications within these communities.
Each of these platforms are constantly improving and the changes they have been making show the types of businesses they aim to serve.
Here is what they are up to now.
We recently returned from the AspDotNetStorefront customer conference in Chicago and we are excited about AspDotNetStorefront's roadmap, which includes…
- More Affordable Maintenance AspDotNetStorefront has invested their efforts over the last year in improving the technical framework of AspDotNetStorefront. With version 10, AspDotNetStorefront moved to MVC, which provided developers the ability to more easily modify an eCommerce site with lower technical debt. They are now releasing minor version updates on a monthly basis. They are incrementally improving the product with a focus on making it less expensive to maintain. (Technical readers will be excited to hear there is support for dependency injection using Autofac.)
- Improved Security
Version 10 is certified as PA-DSS compliant, which is important for companies working through their PCI compliance process.
- Accessibility Improvements
AspDotNetStorefront is making a priority of accessibility to users with disabilities. Towards this end, they working with Accesible360 towards a future release that meets the WCAG 2.0 AA guidelines.
- Usability Improvements
AspDotNetStorefront is working with the Baymard Institute to improve the standard checkout process in a future release. At the conference, Baymard Institute shared plans for providing a simplified and streamlined checkout that will improve conversions and increase your revenue.
AspDotNetStorefront is a strong solution for companies who have simple content management needs but have requirements that necessitate eCommerce customizations.
Unlike our other supported B2B platforms, BigCommerce is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cart. With BigCommerce you don't pay for upgrades, the software is constantly on the most current version. The trade-off is that there are areas not available to be customized.
We were in search of a SaaS platform that could meet B2B criteria we often see, and BigCommerce was the strongest SaaS platform we reviewed, with functionality such as…
- Customer Specific Pricing
You can set discounts or fixed price pricing by category, by product, by customer or customer group. BigCommerce is actively working on improvements on how wholesale pricing can be imported.
- Draft Orders / Request a Quote
Draft orders can be created by store admins and emailed for customer payment. Requests for Quotes can also be offered easily through QuoteNinja.
- Ongoing Development
Offering features to support B2B is a priority for BigCommerce. They already have core functionality and several add-ons to enable you to get up and running. Because of the membership model, additional features prioritized by the BigCommerce community are released on an ongoing basis.
BigCommerce is a good option for B2B companies who are only looking for an eCommerce solution (not content), who are willing to pay an ongoing monthly subscription, and whose requirements can be met by the BigCommerce software and apps. While you are limited in terms of what you can customize, there is a lot you can do.
Kentico is an integrated content and commerce platform. Kentico 11 will be released to the public on December 11, 2017, and we are very excited.
- Improvements in Kentico's eCommerce
Kentico 11 includes a major rewrite of eCommerce and has addressed many known issues with the eCommerce platform (calculating sales tax, discounts, etc.) and re-organized the product with a new modular architecture. A modular architecture makes means it is easier for developers to customize and maintain a stable code base. It also means it will be less expensive to maintain.
- Partnership with UCommerce
For customers needing commerce capabilities beyond what Kentico offers, they have partnered with UCommerce to provide a powerful commerce solution that is still maintained within Kentico's admin. This is a good fit for situations with multiple sites, multiple currencies, multiple languages etc.
- Kentico Cloud
Kentico also has made a priority of providing an online content hub (sometimes called a 'headless CMS') that can be maintained in one place and delivered to multiple applications and devices – mobile apps, multiple websites, and more.
Kentico is a strong solution for mid-market companies where both content and commerce are important to their business.
Similar to Kentico, Episerver is an integrated content and commerce platform. Why would you choose Episerver over Kentico? Episerver offers a more mature technical framework, easier controls for marketers, and requires less labor to upgrade. As you might expect, it also has a higher price tag.
Episerver has focused on making better user experiences that are easier to maintain for marketers through personalization that is powered by machine learning. With this focus, Episerver has released these new product offerings:
- Personalized Product Recommendations
Using what is known as Episerver (Epi) Perform, you can highlight "Recommended Products" or show customers "You Might Also Like This" throughout your site. Epi Perform gives you the ease of being able to drop code on the page that will intelligently make recommendations for you, based on the user's behavior on your site. It also gives you the ability to customize recommendations, creating rules around which products you want to prioritize or exclude in recommendations.
- Personalized Search
Known as Personalized Find, this enables you to prioritize search results for users based on their past behavior on your site. For example, when someone searches on "red shoes," one person will see different results than another, based on the different actions they have taken on your site.
- Email Personalization

Matthew Schwartz Promoted to Professor of Physics with TenureMay 15, 2015
The Physics Department is delighted to announce the promotion of Matthew Schwartz to Professor of Physics with tenure. Matt received his B.A. in Mathematics and Biophysics and M.A. in Mathematics from University of Pennsylvania in 1998 and Ph.D. from Princeton in 2003. After doing postdoctoral work at Berkeley and at Johns Hopkins, he joined Harvard as an Assistant Professor in 2008.
Professor Schwartz has worked on a broad range of theoretical topics in Particle Physics, most recently on formal studies of the structure of Quantum Field Theory and phenomenological work related to the Large Hadron Collider. In the latter, he worked on applications of Effective Field Theory to make precise prediction of the Standard Model measurements performed at the LHC, and on studies of substructures inside hadronic jets. He even joined the ATLAS Collaboration, one of the two large experiments at the LHC, as a Short Term Associate to work directly on data analysis based on his theoretical ideas.
Professor Schwartz has overhauled the way Quantum Field Theory is taught at Harvard. Students from both Harvard and MIT flock to his QFT course, Physics 253a, despite his reputation for giving hard homework and even harder exams. He has written a textbook, Quantum Field Theory and the Standard Model, which is praised highly by professors and students alike, and is fast becoming a standard textbook on QFT. At the introductory level, Matt is working with Professor Howard Georgi and Dr. David Morin to bring the Physics 15 series to the 21st century. We hope to report on the progress of their effort in the next year's newsletter.

"At 70 years old I have been to many dentists in my lifetime. I have had some painful experiences with some of them both during a dentistry procedure and then with the sometimes unnecessary bills. Faber Dental Arts has blessed me with extremely capable dentists, Dr. Jonathon and Dr. Katie Faber. The staff is amazingly friendly and knowledgeable. They all go the extra mile for the patient. They explain exactly what the procedure will be and exactly what it will cost and then give you the option of what will be done. How refreshing to actually have a say in what you want them to do. I just experienced a very intense front tooth implant and the end result is amazing. The caring calmness of the office is a plus.

Fashion is something that many people think they can't attain or have in their life. However, fashion is more about putting knowledge that you learn together in order to better express your own look. Continue reading for some helpful tips regarding fashion and expressing yourself as an individual in today's world.
Copy the look for less. If you see a look you love in a high-end fashion magazine or spot your favorite celebrity sporting a look to die for, don't automatically assume that it is out of your budget. You can often create a very similar look for a whole lot less if you are willing to shop around.
If you want to make yourself look thinner, try to wear the color black. Whether it is a black shirt, skirt, dress or suit, the color tends to make the whole body appear to be thinner. If black is not a color you are fond of, try to accessorize your outfit with brighter colors.
You should not worry about your sense of fashion being perfect. First of all, no one in this world is perfect. Second, any attempt for perfection sends the signal that you are trying way too hard. Disheveled looks with messy hair, non-matching shoes, or not completely buttoned pieces like those of Kate Moss can look great.
Choose your fashion shopping friends wisely. Your friends can make hunting for the newest fashions fun and exciting. But if you bring a friend with a competitive shopping streak, she may tempt you into buying clothes that either don't fit you well or are outside of your budget. Make your decisions on your own time with your needs in mind.
Have yourself professionally fitted for a bra. An ill-fitting brassiere is not only unflattering, but it affects how your clothing fits. Once you know your true size, buy a few bras in different styles and cuts. A plunge or demi-cup bra, a strapless bra, and a convertible bra give you versatile options.
Seek out footwear with wedged heels. Most women love this heel type, as it lengthens and slims the overall appearance of their bodies. Just make sure to find a pair that isn't too high to walk in to protect your feet and your back.
Latest Fashion Trends
In order to make sure that you can fit into the latest fashion trends you are going to want to make sure that you are as slim as possible. Diet and exercise so you don't feel embarrassed because you can't fit into some of the latest trends that this season's fashion has to offer you.
Subscribing to a good fashion newsletter can help you stay up to date regarding current trends as well. Lead your friends in the fashion scene by knowing ahead of time what looks, colors and fabrics are on the fashion horizon.
There are many things to learn when it comes to fashion, and it's all how far you want to dive in. However, it's more about expressing your own style than anything else. Remember the tips and advice you've read here as you work towards expressing your own style of fashion.

He who plants a garden, plants happiness.
Chinese Proverb
The day was perfect–part sun, not too hot.
The Butterfly Weed was still in bloom, joined by Prairie Coreopsis and Wild Quinine, mentioned last week.
The Purple Prairie Clover, also mentioned last week, was a big hit.
Visitors were fascinated by the deeply cut basal leaves of Compass Plant (Silphium laciniatum) that tend to point in a north-south direction–Indians and pioneers used these plants as, well, a compass. Next month, yellow daisies will open along the top part of the tall stems.
Rosin Wed (Silphium integrifolium), cousin of the Compass Plant, is in bloom right next to it.
Elegant candelabras of densely flowered spires of tiny, white tubular blossoms form at the top of the 3-6' tall Culver's Root (Veronicastrum virginicum) in late June or early or July. Protruding, gold-tipped stamens give the flowers a fringed appearance. A close relative of the garden veronica, Veronicastrum means "false veronica." Tiers of 5-parted whorled leaves encircle the stems, another attractive feature. Adaptable, it grows in sun or part shade.
False Sunflower (Heliopsis helianthoides) started to bloom Saturday and is almost in full bloom today. (This is actually a picture from last year.) Large, opposite triangular leaves appear on 3-4' smooth stems that form a loose clump topped with cheerful, yellow-orange daisies in bloom from late June through August. In the wild, it grows abundantly in disturbed prairies and along woodland borders; In the home garden, it grows in sun or partial shade. It is, however, an aggressive seeder; so plant it with other strong growers such as Rosin Weed and Culver's Root, just mentioned; Beebalm, Purple Coneflower, and Spiderwort would also work.
I cut down the long canes of the Illinois Rose and untangled the Honeysuckle vines from the arched trellis in order to repair and re-paint it. That didn't, however, happen. The rose blooms on 2-year-old wood, so very few blossoms were produced.
The hit of the show was Prairie Dock (Silphium terebinthinaceum) with its enormous rough, spade-shaped basal leaves–a dramatic presence in the prairie or prairie garden from spring through late fall. Hold your hands flat on both sides of the leaf–it will feel cool no matter how hot the day. In July, smooth, leafless stems will rise up from the center of the plant to 10'; a cluster of golden daisies with greenish centers will bloom at the top. In autumn, the leaves turn a gorgeous red-mahogany.
One would think a tall plant such as this would belong at the back of the garden, but that's not the case. The leaves are the focal point–plant it in front of other plants. The tall stems can be seen through easily, so they won't hide the plants in back of it.
Note: Prairie Dock, a fine native plant, is no relation at all to Curley Dock (Rumex crispus), a ubiquitous European weed found here in abandoned fields, pastures, and yards

Author and longtime Chevy & Camaro enthusiast Eric McClellan brings the reader step-by-step through the process of selecting and installing GM LS engines into Camaros and Firebirds.
McClellan discusses 1st and 2nd generation Camaros and Firebirds, prominent muscle cars which are prime candidates for engine upgrades. Enter LS Engines -powerhouses which produce more horsepower per CU than almost any other pushrod V8 engine. Combine the two together, and you can create an extraordinary performance car that anyone would be proud to own.
This exhaustive guide covers every aspect of the process that you can imagine, taking you step-by-step with full-color pictures and detailed explanations of everything. Some of the topics covered include:
- Proper planning
- takes through each crucial step
- instruction on selecting best engine for budget
- choosing adapter plates and engine mounts
- selecting ideal transmission and drivelines
- completing all facets of the swap
Chapters are neatly divided by the stages of the swap, such as engine and subframe, chassis and suspension, front drive accessories, fuel system and stock fuel tank replacement, cooling system, transmission, wiring, exhaust and induction, and initial startup and system checks. McClellan also includes an exhaustive source guide in back of book.
This book is a must-have for anyone planning on upgrading their Camaro or Firebird with a LS Engine. Incredibly detailed, CarTech's line of Performance How-To books are proving a no-brainer for the serious car enthusiast. Highly recommended!
Rating: 5 stars
I have received this book for free through LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review.

Whether you need wisdom teeth treatment for yourself or someone else in your family, you can trust the care and experience from Dr. Gilbert and his staff. Dr. Gilbert is double board certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology.

Sports Split Step Company Profile
Home > About Our passion at Sports Split Step started with the sport of tennis and tennis still provides the platform for much of the engineering and development of our teaching tools and concepts. Fundamentals are essential to teaching or learning any sport and the expertise developed in various sports seems to gravitate to things like physical conditioning, stroke production, mental (strategies) and emotional conditioning, with very little effort spent on what we call sensory-motor training. At Sports Split Step we have become obsessed with sensory-motor training, a technique that is involved in all movements. Consider a movement called the Split Step, which occurs in many sports bseides tennis, such as lacrosse, football, basketball, pickle ball, racquetball, squash, badminton, baseball, soccer, and volleyball. The tools we have developed are geared to help coaches teach this Split Step and other movements by developing an athlete's sensory-motor pathways. Footwork training also requires conditioning the athlete's feet so that the driving force can be increased.

Results Could Signal a New Era of Financial Responsibility Among Consumers
Public Company Information:
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The majority (52 percent) of young adults between the ages of 23 and 28 consider "making better choices about managing money" the single most important issue for individual Americans to act on today, outweighing the need to strengthen family relationships (18 percent), protect the environment (11 percent) and improve personal nutrition and health (9 percent). Moreover, almost two-thirds of young adults (64 percent) say financial fitness is more important than physical fitness, and the majority (51 percent) believe that financial education in school, grades K-12, is more important than both physical education (31 percent) and sex education (18 percent) combined. These are among the key findings of the latest annual survey on the topic of families and money released today by Charles Schwab.
"This age group is clearly riveted by our weakened economy," said Carrie Schwab-Pomerantz, president of Charles Schwab Foundation. "When we see people in their 20s prioritizing responsible money management over personal nutrition and health, it seems clear that the need for individual accountability has penetrated deeply into the culture. Without diminishing the importance of good health, these results are very encouraging and could signal a new era of financial responsibility among American consumers."
But it's not just individuals who are called on to take steps on their own. More than one in three young adults (36 percent) agree that the single most important action the Obama Administration could take to improve financial literacy in the United States would be to create incentives (or provide additional funding) for states that mandate personal finance in the standard high school curriculum. Another 36 percent in the aggregate believe the Administration should create economic incentives encouraging employers to provide holistic financial education for their employees, and fund a public awareness campaign for financial literacy to encourage parents to do a better job of teaching their kids money basics.
Young adults see their "financial physique" as "flabby"
Twenty-three- to twenty-eight-year-olds show some unexpectedly traditional views when it comes to personal finance. When asked to rank the relative importance of conflicting priorities, such as eliminating all debt vs. buying a new car, or saving as much money as possible vs. having as much fun as possible, they generally make the more responsible choice.
Yet despite this and their perception that financial fitness is more important than physical fitness, fewer than one in five (18 percent) consider their own financial physique to be "toned and fit." More than three in four young adults describe their financial health as either "a little flabby" (55 percent) or "seriously out of shape" (27 percent).
Their behaviors may bear this out. On average, those surveyed carry more than $14,000 in debt (excluding home mortgages). Of those who use credit cards, only one-third (33 percent) pay off their entire balance every month, while the other two-thirds make payments less reliably. Nearly ten percent make payments only when they can.
With respect to this age group's self-assessed financial health, the survey uncovered gender differences as well. Women were more likely than men to describe themselves as "financially flabby" (34 percent versus 20 percent), and also more likely to believe financial responsibility should be a national priority (55 percent versus 49 percent).
They don't seem adequately prepared for life on their own
The largest percentage of survey respondents say they were most surprised to learn how much money it takes to live independently as they "began to live life on their own" (26 percent). Not surprisingly, only about half (51 percent) are financially independent from their parents. One in four (26 percent) still live with their parents; of those, 28 percent are unemployed while another 26 percent made the choice to live with their parents in order to save money.
Young adults rely on their parents in other ways as well. The majority (56 percent) attribute their knowledge of money management basics to their parents, with significant numbers continuing to turn to their parents for ongoing financial advice (43 percent). However, many in this age group admit they don't feel adequately prepared to make good financial choices when it comes to using debt wisely (28 percent), saving for the future (40 percent) or investing their money (43 percent). And when asked which aspects of personal finance they wish they had learned more about before entering the workforce, living within a budget (45 percent), and the importance of saving (42 percent) rise to the top of the list.
Financial fitness in the workplace
For many young adults, entering the workforce provides the first real opportunity to apply the financial lessons they've learned, as well as to fill in their gaps in knowledge, and employers have the opportunity to help. Two-thirds of survey respondents (66 percent) say they would like to see their employers offer ongoing education and guidance on a range of financial topics beyond those related to employee benefits such as the company-sponsored retirement plan and health insurance choices, but only 25 percent of employers actually do so.
In fact, when it comes to financial education and guidance offered by employers, there is a sizeable gap between what younger workers want and what their employers actually offer, despite the fact that almost one in three young workers (31 percent) say they are not very familiar or at all familiar with their employers' offering of financial benefit plans. The following list ranks in order of importance the education and guidance these younger workers would like vs. whether their employers offer it:
- 401(k) or company-sponsored retirement plan guidance (50 percent of employees want it; 30 percent of employers offer it). Interestingly, of those individuals who have access to an employer-sponsored retirement plan, 87 percent believe it's an important benefit but 35 percent aren't contributing to it. Of those who do contribute, over one-third (35 percent) aren't confident in their ability to make suitable investment choices.
- Debt management education (30 percent of employees want it; eight percent of employers offer it)
- Advice on investing outside a 401(k) or other workplace retirement plan (30 percent of employees want it; seven percent of employers offer it)
- Budgeting advice (26 percent of employees want it; 10 percent of employers offer it)
- Guidance on purchasing a home (22 percent of employees want it; five percent of employers offer it)
- Counsel on saving for a child's education (19 percent employees want it; four percent of employers offer it)
"Corporate employers are in a unique position to promote social change, but the potential benefits go beyond fulfilling any sense of social responsibility," said Schwab-Pomerantz. "Basic financial education helps people understand how to avoid financial potholes, which can cause tremendous personal anxiety and stress that interfere with productivity at work. From the family to schools to the workplace, each of our cultural institutions can play a greater role in helping today's youth learn how to make sound financial decisions that will help them throughout their lives."
Five Priorities for Financial Fitness
While many young adults believe they have the ability to improve their financial health through more education and research on their own, many others express interest in seeing a step-by-step plan. The following are some immediate actions that young people can take to get on the right track.
1. If you don't have a written budget, create one and stick to it. If you need to cut back on expenses, start with all those "nice to-do's" such as eating out, travel and entertainment. Better to use that extra money to build up a stash of cash (an emergency fund).
2. Make sure you're building up your emergency fund to cover a minimum of three months of essential expenses—and keep this money easily accessible, like in an interest-bearing checking account or saving account. Depending on your job security and your other assets, you may want to have up to twelve months of expenses in reserve.
3. Stay on top of credit card debt, paying it off every month if possible. If you're carrying a balance, think about ways to reduce your interest rate. For example, can you negotiate with your credit card company – or transfer your balance to a card with a lower rate?
4. Start saving for retirement. If you have a company-sponsored 401(k) or other retirement plan available to you, at least contribute up to the amount that will allow you to take full advantage of any employer match. Don't leave this "free" money on the table. Ideally, if you can start putting aside 10 percent of your yearly salary in your 20s, and keep saving at this rate throughout your working life, you should be in great shape when you reach retirement age. Remember, it's not only how much you have to invest, but also how long you have to invest that counts. Right now you have time on your side.
5. Protect yourself — and your finances — with adequate health insurance. Being young and healthy is no guarantee against an accident or unexpected illness, either of which could cost many thousands of dollars. Don't even think about neglecting this step!
In addition to help and guidance on a variety of topics important to consumers, Schwab provides resources for employers to help their employees not only make the most of the company-sponsored retirement plan, but on a range of topics essential to personal financial health. Employers that would like more information can call 1-877-456-0777.

Upon docking at Mackinac Island, we caught a four-legged taxi to The Grand Hotel. No cars are permitted on the island, which means work horses abound on the island. The Grand Hotel driver wears a black top hat, tall leather black leather boots, white breeches, and a burgundy-colored waistcoat with tails. The carriage itself has large wooden spoke wheels, windows, and is pulled by a pair of black horses decked out in black leather gear.
The horses' clip-clop-clip-clop up and down the hills of the winding streets finally depositing us in front of The Grand Hotel's steep red-carpeted steps. Schepler's Ferry transported our baggage via horse-drawn carriage to the hotel prior to our arrival on the island. Shortly after checking in, our bags appeared outside our room door.
This was our third stay at The Grand Hotel; as a result, our room had been upgraded to a Category III Lake-View room. Two four-poster canopy beds coördinated with the brightly flowered wallpaper supplied a cheery greeting upon our arrival. Dorothy Draper's protégé, Carleton Varney, the hotel historian informed us, decorated each of the 385 rooms differently in 19th century fashion. Each paint color is unique to The Grand Hotel.
The large geranium-motif carpet runs throughout the hotel [the geranium is the signature flower of The Grand Hotel]. In each bathroom, small bars of pink geranium-scented soap greet the guest, as does rosy geranium-fragranced body lotion. The lake vista, the brightly splashed wallpaper, comfy beds, and scent of geraniums wafting through the air calmed the senses.
We decided to partake of formal tea time in The Salon. My daughter chose a glass of pink champagne, and I the dry sherry. Our server, who was dressed in a crisp black and white uniform replete with a white headpiece à la 19th century servants, displayed before us a tasty repast of salmon, crab, ham, and turkey each served on crustless bread cut in the shape of hearts, circles, and rectangles. Another plate was laden with sweets and fresh cream. The tea itself was full-bodied.
We strolled around the grounds overlooking the Tea Garden where enormous greenery has been trimmed to resemble animals. A large fountain bubbled away as workers scurried to set up for a wedding to take place overlooking the fountain.
The promise of a fine weekend loomed large.
Ciao for now.

This use to be so easy - any suggestions?
I'm running into an issue with Collaborate, specifically with the Desktop Sharing extension. When I go to share my screen for the first time on a machine, a box shows up asking me to add the desktop sharing extension to chrome. The button "Add to Chrome" doesn't do anything. It used to link to the extension. I can find the extension manually and add it, but my professors and students are having trouble. Thus far I've tested it on chrome in Windows 10, Windows 7, and MacOS and all three are showing the same behavior.

TTV Companies and our community
The family of companies collectively known as TodayTomorrow Ventures ("TTV") operates in Ethiopia, an exceptionally beautiful corner of the world. TTV aims to keep the nation beautiful.
Moreover, we feel a social responsibility with the Ethiopian peoples. Our team has initiated many highly-visible and ongoing activities that go beyond our environmentally-friendly products and services.
• TTV farms utilize sophisticated drip irrigation systems to make the most of rainfall, filtered groundwater, natural fertilizers, and other techniques in the most environmentally-friendly way possible.
• TTV farms and factories employ and promote local talent and management, who in turn achieve sustainability with maximum creativity.
• The TTV management team established the independent not-for-profit NGO called STEMpower (www.STEMpower.org) and its predecessor GFCT. Our team has been directly involved in a vast number of programs that provide hands-on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) enrichment, at no charge. Thus, hundreds of thousands of young Ethiopian students have gained advanced lab experience before they enter their university studies. Beyond the STEM centers, TTV team members have established science museums, university outreach programs, science high schools, regional&national science fair competitions, robotics competitions, science TV shows, and much more. Often, half of the cross-culturally diverse student participants are females. Operating in every Ethiopian regional state, the programs lay the seeds of intra-nation peace and development. In addition, STEMpower also develops projects in nearby friendly East African countries, e.g. South Sudan, Kenya, and more, fostering international collaboration in parallel with STEM enrichment. Moreover, most of our initiatives are absorbed by the Ethiopian government or its university system, guaranteeing sustainability far into the future.
• The TTV management team obtained four large containers, containing over 100,000 age-appropriate STEM-appropriate English-language books. Our farm storehouses subsequently warehoused the books prior to successful distribution through public schools and libraries in five Ethiopian cities.
• TTV farms collaborate with the Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Resources - Wondo Genet Agricultural Research Center. For example, the partnership studies the cultivation of industrially-interesting agricultural crops that thrive on scrub land. We aim to create new sustainable resources that absolutely do not compete with food production.
• TTV farms support collaborative visits by organizations and students from nearby countries even poorer than Ethiopia. Our purpose is to develop information-sharing agribusiness concepts on a wide scale.
• TTV maintains good relationships with Ethiopian government ministries, regional&local governments, and universities. We sponsor and participate in STEM-relevant university conferences.

Eyeshadow Week: Five affordable neutral palettes
A neutral eyeshadow palette is a basic makeup must-have. It's the best way to enhance and contour your eyes for any occasion, be it in a job interview or a fancy event!
Now, if you can afford to splash cash on Bobbi Brown, MAC, Urban Decay, or Shu Uemura, then just go for it. These brands make the best eyeshadows out there, and the price tag is definitely justified since it'll take forever to finish up one pan! Their eyeshadows are silky smooth and has this rich pigmentation that's hard to find in drugstore makeup.
However, if you're on a budget (ain't we all) then there are a lot of great drugstore options out there. Here are five neutral eyeshadow palettes that are affordable yet offer good color combinations and pigmentation! Click the links for the full review, although I've posted swatches here so you can compare too.
I blogged about the Wet n' Wild Color Icon Eyeshadow Palette in Vanity two years ago but this remains as one of the best drugstore palettes that I've tried. I recommend it to those who are just starting out with makeup but need something they can really play around with. This palette has six colors that you absolutely need. They come in shimmer and matte, too!
Love the pigmentation. The texture can be kinda powdery and chalky, but it's not too bad for the price. Do you spot that shimmery copper shade? That's a deadringer for MAC Mulch eyeshadow - one of my fave MAC colors EVER!
I also adore the Revlon ColorStay 16 Hour Eye Shadow Quad in Brazen. I like the more elevated color selection - that is not just a shimmery white, it's a white gold with peach flecks. That isn't just a beige - it's a peach with gold shimmer. It's pigmented too, and stays on very well (with primer of course, although you can do without it and still get a nice color pay-off).
You can wear these colors alone on your lids or combine them to get something more dramatic. These shades are just MFEO!
The IN2IT Eye Colour Palette in Island Sands is interesting because it has this subtle olive tone. Get it if you're into gold shades!
The Etude House Dolly 3-Step Eyes in Cute Doll (P648) may look underwhelming, but believe me these three matte shades are the most important colors you will need on your eyes. You can use them together or have each individual shade as a "supporting" color - meaning, you can wear a bright pop of color on the lids and then tone it down with the matte tan or smoke it up with the charcoal brown. This is really handy!
The Majolica Majorca Jeweling Eyes palette in BR361 (P795) can be quite shimmery, but the colors are unquestionably pretty. This is definitely for the girl who loves glitter! I know a lot of people avoid it like the plague, but seriously it's fun on the eyes and never hurt anyone as long as it's applied properly.
I'm not sure if this particular palette is still available (it was part of a collection) but I'm sure Majo has an equivalent neutral palette available by now.
So there you go. Which one appeals to you most? I like the Wet n Wild obviously, but the Revlon palette is also quite good. The EH trio is also very useful since I like wearing bright colors on my eyes.
Have a great weekend, folks!

NO-SPOILER BOOK REVIEWS in every genre, from thrillers & romances to cozies & cookbooks. Find new reading thrills TODAY!
THE DARK AFFAIR, by Maire Claremont
including a brother on the run from the law, and an opportunity to aid her fellow Irish, she agrees. But there's more to her acquiescence than mere noble altruism, she's powerfully attracted to the viscount. Tense and intriguing, the story of Powers' recovery is set against the horrific details of the completely avoidable Irish famine, when the British government and the ruling classes deemed the people of Ireland mere vermin, expendable and of no concern. The romance, deftly drawn, is woven in with larger issues that make this more than just a story about two people coming to terms with mutual attraction. It's a 4; sex is a 3. If you lvoe historical romances, this one is better than most.
