Put 19 November 2014 in your diary. You'll need to attend the ceremony if you're shortlisted!
Handy hints for completing your entry form
- The title of your entry should describe the content and not include the name of your company or organisation with no more than 15 words
- You may enter up to three categories with each innovation but will require a separate entry form for each
- Ensure you actually describe how your innovation works (simple, but not always the case!)
- No sales jargon please
- Be specific to the questions posed
- Remember to refer back to the judging criteria
- Please remember that it is quality over quantity. Pay attention to the guideline words lengths
- The description in question five may be used to describe your innovation in any general marketing and publicity that the institution does on your behalf should your entry reach finalist stage of the awards. This marketing will reach a very broad audience and needs to be constructed in non-technical terms. It should not simply repeat the entry title as the two will usually be listed together

click image to zoomSteve Godddard President, Founder PRAVANA NATURCEUTICALS First and foremost, salon professionals are creative individuals. We seek to become hair, nail or makeup artists because we love to be creative. However, the reality of our work is often more functional than inspired and we can sometimes fall into thinking that what we do is just a job. I believe to be truly creative, you need to feel the freedom and believe in yourself as an artist. To develop and maintain a creative frame of mind and to nurture the imaginative and exciting aspects of our daily routine takes a bit of work.
It's important to feed creativity both inside and outside the salon. For many, the mainstay of salon work is performing more mainstream colors and hair designs that don't typically evoke a feeling of creative accomplishment. To balance this, it's important to solicit clients who will allow you to perform more artistic services.
Also, it's important to constantly challenge your clients to be a bit more courageous and take risks with what they feel is a traditional representation of beauty. We often think that because a client comes in every two weeks to get their 6 natural to cover gray, this is the way it will always and should always be, but you will be surprised at what clients will do when you present them with a new and more creative style or color option.
But to truly exercise your creative muscles, it's important to immerse yourself in the process. A great friend of mine, Alan Papaleo, is not only an incredibly creative stylist but also a world-class painter – combining two great forms of artistry into one body of work. I see how seamlessly his creativity in the work he does on the canvas can translate and reappear in the innovative crafting he does in hair color and hair design.
Whether it is art, music, dance, or poetry, it's extremely helpful to nurture your creative soul with the productive activities that not only excite you, but also inspire and fulfill your daily routine. You can't help but become a more creative professional by immersing yourself in creativity. Another way of fostering creativity is to place yourself in a stimulating environment. In his new book, Creativity Inc., Ed Catmull, President of Pixar and Disney Animation (obviously, widely accepted as a pretty creative guy), stresses the importance of creating an environment that evokes and supports creativity. He says to look at your personal workspace and think of what you might do to make it more playful, more colorful, more inspiring - more fun.

One elderly married couple took the "'til death do us part" part of their marriage vows so seriously that they committed suicide rather than risk dying at separate times. Georgette and Bernard Cazes, who had been married 60 years, checked into a luxury hotel in Paris, lay down on the bed together, and died holding hands. It's unclear how exactly they killed themselves, but suicide was obvious since they left a note and their will nearby.
The note reportedly said that the couple didn't want to become a burden on their children or the state, and called for France to legalize euthanasia. They said they had the right to die with dignity and to die together rather than apart when one died before the other.
In some ways, I really admire this couple who chose to go out on their own terms -- and while they were still sprightly enough to go to a luxury hotel and have one last night of fun. It was not thought that the couple had any terminal illnesses -- rather than old age.
Death is a natural and inevitable part of life, and when you think about it, we all tend to glamorize hanging on until the bitter end rather than admiring those who decide to control when and how they die.
On the other hand, there's also something admirable about sticking it out until the last drop of breath is wrested from you. Call me just too attached to this life to want to voluntarily give up even a few days of it if I'm still in decent health.
I totally understand these two not wanting to live even a few moments without each other though. So many elderly people die within hours or days of each other naturally -- as if one really cannot live without the other.
I'm pleased this couple went in the dignified manner they chose to go -- together. But another part of me is just so sad about it. Why do we have to die?? Dang. Okay, I need to stop being selfish and need to make room for the generations after me.
I mean, not NOW. Don't rush me.
Could you ever consider doing this with your spouse?
Image via LearningLark/Flickr
Suicide isn't for everyone, but I will not fault a couple who decide to end things on their own terms, especially without knowing the specifics. When my grandfather passed my grandmother stopped eating save for a few bites when people were noticing. It took her a year to waste away, and the end wasn't pretty. I wouldn't have faulted her for speeding things up. It's not my life, not my choice.
I don't find it romantic in the least. This is a couple who have been discussing it for years and were pissed that France said no to euthanasia. If you're sick I have no problem with it, but because your surgery didn't go the way you wanted or you just want control over when you go,take some pills and call it a day. Don't try to involve others in your demise.I find it ridiculous that these people want someone else to do their dirty work. DIY.
my daughter does volunteer work with the elderly and she has many stories about couples dying the same night or a few days apart just naturally.

Preventing air movement through wall and ceiling assemblies is one of the keys to building a durable and comfortable home. Conservation Technology's Building Gaskets are a great way to prevent air leakage and associated moisture problems. They come in three different widths, for band joists, 2x4 walls, and 2x6 walls. Unlike caulks and sealants — which need warm and dry conditions for an effective seal — gaskets can be installed in any kind of weather. Resource Conservation Technology, 800/477-7724, www.conservationtechnology.com
A good door sweep is an inexpensive way to tighten up a home, but its effectiveness can be hampered by plush carpeting or a new layer of flooring; the door may become difficult to operate and the sweep may wear out prematurely. M-D's Seal-o-Matic is a clever solution to this common problem. The retractable sweep raises when the door is opened and then lowers again when it's closed. The product costs about $20. M-D, 800/654-8454, www.mdteam.com
Typical fiberglass insulation is virtually useless for insulating band joists and other leaky areas. A much better option for these problem spots is a two-part foam like Dow's Froth-Pak 180. The kit — which includes an applicator gun with an 8-foot hose — yields about 18 board feet of insulation; other sizes are available for bigger and smaller jobs. I found the Froth-Pak 180 online for about $300. Dow, 888/868-1183, www.dow.com/buildingproducts
For a unique look, check out Jeld-Wen's Heart Design door. Constructed of MDF with a polyurethane core — making it 33 percent lighter than solid MDF units — the limited-edition model is available through February 2007 in two styles, each featuring a carved heart. Prices for a slab start at $250, and for a prehung version, at $300. Jeld-Wen will donate $100 to the American Heart Association for every Heart Design door sold. Jeld-Wen, 877/535-3462, www.jeld-wen.com
Hidden doors that conceal a secret stash or tasting room are a growing trend in wine cellars. If you're going to be building and installing one, be prepared for a lot of head-scratching — or make it easy on yourself by specifying a ready-made Hidden Vertical Display Door from Wine Cellar Innovations. Free of visible hardware, it's designed to blend seamlessly into the company's standard shelving. In addition to the standard 291/4-inch unit, custom sizes are available. Prices start at $3,990. Wine Cellar Innovations, 800/229-9813, www.winecellarinnovations.com
Solid-wood doors may be great-looking, but they have an Achilles heel: They can warp — sometimes for no apparent reason. A veneered face and engineered stiles and rail help Woodport doors resist this tendency. The units come in just about any wood species, in raised or flat-panel, French or bifold styles. List prices start at $70 for the door only. Heritage Veneered Products, 877/966-3767, www.woodport.com

Nuclear Safety
June 10, 2013
Instead of throwing away what may look like junk mail from Exelon, people who live near the Cordova nuclear plant should keep it AND review it. This month, the utility sent about 31,000 emergency planning brochures to homes and businesses located within a ten-mile radius of the Quad Cities Nuclear Generating Station.
Spokesman, Bill Stoermer, says it includes evacuation routes, precautions, and tips for people to take if a disaster happens at the plant.
"We ask people to keep it somewhere that is readily available. The information would always be available via the radio stations, but this just gives them a hard copy that they can have in front of them if they choose."
If you haven't received the emergency planning brochure by the end of the week, Stoermer says it's available on Exelon's web site. Or just call the Cordova plant and ask for one.

Her name meant beautiful, and the cheeky little girl who smiled out from my computer was. There was mischief in her face and a joy that leaped off the screen and straight into my heart. Her eyes were closed, but I knew what color they would be. Just as I knew that in the eyes of the adoption community this beautiful girl had three strikes against her. She was over the age of five. She had a visual impairment that could not be corrected. She did not look like the dark-haired, dark-eyed Asian doll most people dream of when they begin the journey to adopt from China. She'd been born with albinism, and everything about her was different.
My hands shook as I forwarded the referral to my husband who was waiting anxiously at work and who was on the phone with me.
"Her hair is very white, and she is so beautiful," I typed.
And then I hit send, and the referral we'd received less than a week after submitting our SN paperwork zipped to my husband's computer. We both agreed that the blond-haired child was the daughter we'd been praying for, and we accepted the referral a few hours later.
In the days that followed, I printed off the photo of my cheeky new daughter, and I carried it in my wallet. I brought it to church, to the dance studio where my older daughter took lessons and to the college where my son took piano lessons.
"Did you hear?" I'd ask with excitement. "We got a referral for a beautiful little girl."
And I'd pull out the photo and pass it around.
How old is she? Can she open her eyes? Are her eyes pink? Is she blind?
Those were the questions I was asked over and over again, and I always answered calmly, "She is almost seven. She can open her eyes, but they are very light sensitive. Her eyes are blue and she may be legally blind, but she can see."
And the more I said it, the more I wondered….Can I do this? Can I parent this child? How will I incorporate a child who may be legally blind into a house with four active kids? She is almost seven, what if she doesn't want to be adopted? Can I deal with her anger, her acting out, her aggression if that is what she comes home with? How will this impact my other kids?
Can I do this?
Can I?
The question haunted me as we waited for LOA. I knew Cheeky-girl was my daughter but I was so afraid I could not be her mother. Supportive friends and family would often say, "It is so clear that God intended her to be your daughter. Look at all the things that happened to bring her into your family."
And I would agree, but, while my heart knew that Cheeky was mine, my head kept throwing out questions.
I am a practical person by nature, a planner, a person who likes to know what's coming. It was not practical to adopt a child with three strikes against her, and I couldn't plan when I had such limited information. As for what was coming, I had no idea, and that scared me more than anything.
I prayed. I really did. All the time. Every day. "Please, Lord, if this isn't the right thing, slam the door shut, don't let us make a mistake."
And the door stayed wide open, beckoning for me to step out in faith, to step through the open door and to whatever waited on the other side.
TA seemed to take forever, but was really very quick. Before I knew it, I was on a plane, flying to China and my new daughter. As we waited for her to arrive at the civil affairs office, my stomach was sick with dread. I was sure I'd made the biggest mistake of my life. Every horror story I'd ever heard about older child adoption filled my head, and I was almost speechless with fear. My husband was rock solid and confident, and I envied him his calm assurance.
And, suddenly, Cheeky was walking around the corner, carrying a strawberry ice cream cone and wearing a huge, happy grin. I called out to her, and she looked up. Even from across the room, I knew she saw me. Her smile grew wider, and she waved. The two women who were walking with her said something, and Cheeky hurried forward, threw herself into our arms, into our lives, with hugs and kisses and "I love you".
She's been home three months, now, and things have gone better than I ever could have imagined. Cheeky's vision is poor, but her functional vision is great. She runs and jumps and plays like any other kids. She does not trip over things or bump into walls. An outsider would never know that Cheeky has a visual impairment.
Three weeks ago, Cheeky had surgery to correct strabismus and to dampen her nystagmus. Both procedures were successful, and Cheeky came through with flying colors. She takes ballet class, attends Chinese language school, and is already pre-reading in English.
And she loves. With her entire being.
She adores her sister and her brothers. She loves my husband. As for me…. we click, Cheeky and me. She is that hole in my heart that I only half-realized needed to be filled. She is my second girly-girl, my "I can do it!" kid, my child who never, ever gives up.
All those fears and worries, all that wondering I did, it helped me prepare for the worst, but in the end, I got the best – a child who can love and be loved, who is bright and vivacious and funny, and who has no concept of the limitations the world might want to put on her.
Three strikes against her?
Not my sweet, cheeky girl. All she has are gifts and a path of opportunity stretching out before her.
What a blessing, what a joy to mother her along the way!

Henkel develops Ablestik WBC-8901UV
|Download: web print
New wafer backside coating for die attach
The unique formulation of Ablestik WBC-8901UV offers a robust and cost-effective alternative to current film-based solutions for die stacking processes, reducing the total cost of ownership as compared to film by as much as 30% to 50%. Process flexibility is also enhanced, as packaging specialists can now adjust die attach thickness based on specific manufacturing requirements and can also select their dicing tape of choice. Film die attach materials are generally supplied in pre-determined thicknesses as a bundled product which incorporates the dicing tape.
Applied via a spray coating method following the wafer thinning process, Ablestik WBC-8901UV is precisely deposited across the back of the silicon wafer following which the material is B-staged using a UV irradiation process. After this step, dicing tape is laminated to the wafer, backgrinding tape is removed and the wafer is diced in preparation for die pick-up and placement. Henkel is currently partnering with spray technology and backgrinding equipment manufacturers to deliver an integrated, in-line process solution for this unique WBC advance. "In our view, Ablestik WBC-8901UV is a game-changing technology," says Jonathan Poo, Henkel Global Marketing Manager for Advanced Packaging. "The material thicknesses, tolerances and reliability results we have been able to achieve – all at a substantially lower cost than film – are impressive."
Traditional deposition methods have challenged WBC for applications that dictate ultra-thin wafers (less than 75 microns) and coating thicknesses of 10 microns or less. Screen and stencil printing, while viable on thicker wafers, may not be able to accommodate today's ultra thin wafers and material uniformity may be impacted by screen mesh marks or the "scooping" effect that comes from squeegee traverse. Historically, spin coating resulted in material waste of 70% or greater, which negated the material cost savings. Ablestik WBC-8901UV and new spray coating technology have resolved these issues, delivering a precise wafer coating as thin as 10 microns with a total thickness variation across the wafer of +/-10% and remarkably low material waste of less than 20%. Wafers as thin as 50 microns have been successfully processed using this method.
"Now, packaging specialists have a reliable, robust and less costly die attach alternative to film-based processes for wafer stacking applications," confidently concludes Poo. "But, we're not finished; come 2011, we expect to be able to achieve 5 micron coating thicknesses or better with further development of Ablestik WBC-8901UV."

Financial Literacy: Is There Ever Enough?
Published on - August 20th, 2012 (by Sarah Gilbert)
This post is by staff writer Sarah Gilbert.
"So… what do you do?" the high school athletes with whom I work will ask me while we're running together at practice. Or they'll ask me what I write about, having only heard obliquely my reference to my occupation.
"Lots of stuff," I'll say. "But I make most of my income writing about personal finance."
I remember what I thought about personal finance when I was in high school. I thought it was so incredibly dull at age 15, I couldn't even endure a semester on the subject; I "challenged" the class, taking a test instead of sitting through checkbook-balancing and budget-making and resume-writing. I was one of those who took naturally to money concepts (I think this may be typical of oldest children in large families, especially families in which money is tight), and I sailed through personal finance.
"Is that fun?" asked one of the runners last week. This answer would have blown me away in high school when I made up my sophomore year schedule.
"Yes, it is, I actually really enjoy it," I said, even still a little surprised.
More financial literacy is always a good thing
I know a lot about personal finance–I'm comfortable calling myself an "expert"–but I certainly don't know everything and there is so much I don't do right. Yes, I know it would be better to budget my freelance income as my spending after I receive it rather than before; it would save me a lot in stress and expenditure-juggling. No, I shouldn't spend so much on cafe costs–buying bagels and coffees and sandwiches and cookies for myself and my kids when we're running around on errands and to meetings. If I used a personal escrow account, I could save at least 10% of many expenses by paying them annually instead of monthly. I could use the produce of my garden more efficiently and save a lot in fruit and vegetable expenditures (I threw away about six pounds of figs last week when I never got around to doing anything with them and they went bad — I felt terrible).
Every time I write a column here or on another web site, I am pushed to do something better. I am pushed to research the answer a little harder and focus more on smart money dealings.
I see every day how much I don't know
But even more than the things I do wrong, there are the things I still don't know. My favorite checkout guy at the grocery co-op told me the other day how it was now cheaper to run my bank card as credit, rather than debit, for most purchases. "I can't keep it straight!" I said.
"It's hard to do," he said, "things are changing all the time."
"But… I'm a personal finance writer," I said miserably. "I should know this."
He explained that banks with less than $10 billion in deposits, including most of the small community banks and credit unions that are popular with co-op members, are exempt from the Federal Reserve Board rules limiting transaction fees (the ones businesses pay to banks in order to process credit and debit cards) to "reasonable and proportional to the costs incurred by the issuer." It's thoroughly ironic that a business frequented by people who believe in shopping and investing locally pays different (and perhaps higher) transaction fees than large businesses with no local-investment values because of this value.
This new information had me committed to use cash more when shopping at these businesses I'm trying to support; cash, for them, has zero transaction fees. Even a personal finance writer can use continuing education in financial literacy.
I'm always wishing I was more financially literate; and I'm the financial literati!
I felt this was one of those universe-messaging moments; I'm being prompted to do something. Pass on what I know and keep learning more.
It's financial literacy month, and as it's also the month I start spending a lot of time with teenagers–I'm a volunteer coach from August through October–I've been trying to figure out how I can pay it forward to teenagers without showing up at practice with handouts and prepared lectures. So I was intrigued when I was introduced to CharitySub, a unique "community of givers" in which you subscribe (the sub) to give $5 each month to a different charity. Three are selected each month on a theme and, as you've probably guessed, August is "financial literacy."
I volunteer coach because I love working with teenagers, and I never had what it takes to put up with the bureaucracy that comes with public schools (I can barely take the bureaucracy of being an unpaid volunteer). Coaching one sport isn't a lot of interaction, but I've seen that even a small amount can make a difference, a community of nudges in the right direction, if you will.
That's why I picked w!se, a financial literacy program aimed at high schoolers and young people who are survivors of domestic violence, to give my monthly five bucks. It's curriculum that teaches kids about the things my woulda-been-dull high school personal finance class was supposed to; about the benefits of having a checking account, how to budget, and other basic things.
"Survivors say their experience at w!se has taught them more about managing money than their friends, family, TV or books," says CharitySub.
(Note they didn't mention web sites like ours)
I think there are a lot of pathways to financial literacy, and we might need to follow them all. It's like learning a language, or being a lawyer, running cross country; it's rarely the assumption that you're done, you've finished, you can stop working. When I was running with the teenagers at camp last week at Silver Falls State Park, I was stunned to see how sore my quadriceps were after two days running the trails. "Why do I ache?" I asked the head coach plaintively. "I've been training on hills!"
"Not hills like these," he said. The sharp up and down was a shock to muscle groups I just don't use, running in the city.
Let's all learn something new about our money
A lot of times I read through headlines on financial web sites and think, "oh, can there be anything new here?" And usually, after a few minutes, I realize, "yes." I think we all loved Kristin Wong's post on the cost of politeness–raise your hand if you said to yourself, "I totally do that"–and it's worthwhile taking stock of our good and bad habits.
Sometimes literacy is just about (cue music from yoga class) being present in our financial decisions. For those of us who are financially literate, we can use this month celebrating financial literacy to give a little back to others and also reinvest in our own continuing financial education. Recognize the areas in which you hold somewhat less than a PhD of financial awesomeness. Learn something more, practice more, run up and down hills in a new way. After a few days of achiness, I promise, you'll be so much stronger.
Where do you need to focus your financial continuing education? Where do you go for inspiration and fiscal strength training?
Wow, great post. A life lesson is that there is ALWAYS more to learn.
Exactly! There IS always more to learn, but especially these days with the internet… new things, new apps, new companies, new fees, are happening at lightening pace, so there really is always more to learn and keep up with!
Great topic! You're right – there is always something more to learn. And we should spread the word as much as we can.
I spent some summer time with two teenage sons of friends playing an investment game online in order to drive home some basic points about investing:
- the earlier and more consistently you do it, the more mistakes you can make and still end up a millionaire
- the value of diversification (nobody can predict the future)
- the nature of various investment vehicles
and so forth.
Both of them came away "getting" those points. They also discovered how their temperaments influenced their choices – the riverboat gambler vs. the conservative.
If only I had this kind of input when I was that age…
what game? I keep looking for financial literacy video games and all I find are pretty crappy ones, where cash literally falls from the sky or everything you do is a cheap farmville ripoff.
Regarding the swipe fees, regardless of your opinion on same, cash is not free to a business. There are costs associated with managing cash, getting it to the bank, loss or shrinkage, both in making change and through theft.
As for personal finance education. I think it should be taught in school, starting early. While I recall learning about currency and coins and making change in elementary school and a little on investing and the stock market in high school I don't recall ever getting a good overview.
After college, I took an adult education class which has served me well. I graduated from college with just a little debt (credit card debt, my parents paid for my education) and entered the lucrative field (not) of social services. I decided that I needed to better understand my personal finances and took that adult ed class. I learned how to budget, learned how to calculate my net worth, the basics of investing and that little class got me started out right as an adult.
But, I am always learning more. I spend hours researching my stock picks, reading up about fund managers, etc. and I still feel like I am flying blind when it comes to retirement investing. Really our personal finances is my second job, both in managing it, thinking about it, researching it, writing about it (I don't make any money doing so but it helps me learn and focus), talking about it, paying bills, etc.
I was pretty surprised when my food coop actually ran an article saying that they wanted us to use credit cards. I couldn't quite tell for sure whether it was partly because they didn't want to inconvenience us or because we tend to spend more money when we use them, but they definitely made the point that dealing with cash isn't free–it takes more man hours to count it, for example. Now you might still rather have more coop money going to staff salaries than to bank fees, but you might want to just ask them what they would prefer if it were all the same to you.
Timely. Meeting with an objective, fee-based financial planner today, hoping to learn a bit more about retirement and investments. That has always been the area that I 'just don't know what I don't know'.
We're out of debt, saved a cash cushion, things are under control from a day to day standpoint… and now I'm thinking about what comes next.
Finances change, whether personally, or something new on the market. I think we tend to focus our learning on what is applicable to us now, and that will change as we go into different financial "phases".
Sure, I am invested in my retirement now, but I'm not comparing prices on meds, or AARP insurance. I don't have kids so I don't know all that much about the 529, or life insurance, or the rate of increase for tuition.
I think even when you learn something, if you don't use it, you lose it. I can't imagine any one person knowing everything about finances all at the same time. Even with personal financing I like to be reminded about something that I once knew, and maybe forgot about.
I've really only started seriously learning about personal finance in the last year since I graduated from University. I hadn't even heard the term "emergency fund" 18 months ago! I can't even imagine not knowing that phrase now!!
In the UK at least, there is very little education about personal finance. It's something that Martin over at Money Saving Expert is trying to persuade the government to change. It would probably have stopped/reduced friends racking up huge loans/credit cards to finance lifestyles they can't afford!
Loved this post! Even though I feel pretty financially literate, I too have a long way to go in terms of actually making the non-spending changes that I need to. I've read GRS for years, I've borrowed The Millionaire Next Door, TMM, Smart Couples Finished Rich and Your Money or Your Life and a host of others from the libary and read them, so I know all the things I "should" be doing, and I'm doing some things right but still over-spend when I know I shouldn't. That's where it's tricky for me – the internalization of what I know and putting the textbook knowledge into action.
I especially liked the part in the post where the checkout clerk knew so much about the credit card practices. Shows you can't judge a book by its apron.
I think I need to invest more time learning about investments and retirement plans.
There is a reason small local financial institutions were exempted from the limits. It's expensive to operate debit card programs and manage fraud, and to conform to all the same regulatory requirements as the big guys. Small institutions use the fees mostly to cover their costs, not to make a killing.
I find sometimes learning financial literacy not invloves "learning" for me so much as "reminding". I often pause when reading an article and think, "I did know this at one point, how could I have forgotten it?" Even reading the most simple posts can somtimes be great refreshers if you haven't visited a particular PF subject in awhile.
I also like the idea of teaching PF at schools. And maybe instead of looking at it as an "either Calculus OR PF," maybe we can figure out a way to incorporate PF examples into traditional math classes (e.g., "If you take out $20,000 in student loans and the interest rate is X%, how much will you pay in interest over 10 years?" or "If Jane makes $100 from babysitting, how much will she earn if she puts that into a savings account with an X% return?")
In Ontario, the required half credit course on careers spends a class on student loans and financing post secondary education. It also has lessons on career research so students can see what options are out there, what schooling they need and how much they can potentially earn.
Calculating interest is part of our math curriculum here — is it not in the U.S.?
The problem with this suggestion is that finance (personal or otherwise), aside from the basic addition & multiplication, is implemented in a very different manner than things like basic algebra and calculus that is required by future education. It is done now, but maybe not to the degree it should be.
Also, as pointed out here again and again, PF is as much about psychology as it is about math (although the math is hard to get around)
I still don't know how on earth Calculus related to my higher education, and I'm getting an MBA now. Algebra, yes (sometimes you need to figure out the "unknown" element), but I have had no use at all for Calculus since I didn't go on to study quantitative analysis, science or engineering…
Where I live, you needed calculus to apply for university programs in math and science. I took math and science all the way through high school to keep my options open. (I'm assuming calculus is important for people looking to get into those high-earning STEM fields people on GRS go on about
As for me, I don't use calculus or physics on a daily basis. Statistics and probability are much more useful.
I think Calculus is very important in high school, because taking Calculus informs you whether or not a STEM career is in your future. This is very good information to have young.
I took a PF class when I was in high school. It covered the basics – we had to pretend we worked at a job making $X/hour, then had to budget for rent, transportation, etc. Part of the class also involved balancing a checkbook.
It definitely can't hurt to have PF classes, but I don't think it's a cure, either. If kids don't see the same lessons in place at home, they won't see the real world applications of what they've learned.
Kudos, Sarah! Now, I'm looking at that charity.
Evidence on the effect of financial literacy classes is mixed. They're required for high school in several states already. In general it looks like required financial literacy courses have zero effect on outcomes. Optional literacy courses do seem to help those who choose to take them, especially when offered by a company rather than in a K-12 setting.
This question is still an area of active research, one that the Social Security Administration has thrown a lot of money at in recent years.
I just wanted to say I enjoyed this post and the conversation it has generated
My two cents on the original question: I don't think we ever stop learning about PF because our situation constantly changes. I know I'm always learning new things and I'm still learning about investing and finding balance. I learn new things as I reach new stages in my journey. For instance, I didn't worry too much about retirement in my first career because there was a pension plan. When I changed jobs, I had to take a more active role in planning.
This post has me thinking about what I can to do help promote financial literacy rather than what I expect other people to do. No easy answers to that one, I'm afraid!
This is an informative and well-written article! I'll be recommending it to everybody in my various professional circles.
For me, the biggest takeaway was this: "I see every day how much I don't know." Whether you work in finance or any other industry, this is a concept that far too many people overlook — regardless of how long they've worked in their field. Making an effort to learn something new every day is vital to a person's ability to succeed, whether it be financially, professionally or personally.
To answer the question posed in the headline: there cannot be enough and there will never be enough. Why? Because the issue for most folks is not financial literacy, but behavioral economics. In other words, knowledge helps, but the hard part is changing our habits. Do that (like automatically deducting $100 per paycheck from you first "real job") and you change everything.
Investing is often thought to be on the fringe of personal finance, when it's actually one of the most important pieces, imho. We tend to forget this because he FDIC insures all of our savings deposits (at quite a price!), so we don't have to worry about which bank we use in that regard. In PF blogs, we're always told to save, contribute to a retirement account, put money in high-yield savings, etc. But, imo, there's not enough info on how to choose amongst particular investments (I always enjoy Robert Brokamp's posts). Anyone who lived through the savings and loan, dot com, or housing crises knows that understanding your investments (IRA, 401K, etc.), is very important. You can cut your morning coffee and cable, but that's not going to protect your retirement account from an economic downturn.
I thought Financial Literacy Month was in April, or November if you are in Canada.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have cleared up a bit of their logjam along their blueline as they have traded Ryan Whitney to the Anaheim Ducks for Chris Kunitz and Eric Tangradi.
''It's a new start and a team that I feel wants me,'' Whitney told THE CANADIAN PRESS. ''They gave up a good player and a real good prospect.
''Last season was great. We went to the Stanley Cup final and personally, I had a good playoff. Then, I had the foot problem and got that fixed, so I missed a lot of time.''
The 26-year old Whitney was a vital piece of the Penguins' Stanley Cup run last year; however foot surgery caused him to miss the first 31 games of this season. He has two goals and 11 assists in 28 games for Pittsburgh this year.
''I know that I can play better than I have this year and I think I will,'' Whitney said. ''It's about me getting some confidence back and having a new start.''
The Boston-native is one of the better puck moving defencemen in the league and should be a big boost to the Ducks' power play. He became deemed surplus goods when fellow defenceman and Penguins' primary powerplay quarterback Sergei Gonchar returned from a shoulder injury.
''What he brings to the table is he is a big kid and can skate and move the puck,'' Ducks general manager Bob Murray said. ''The game is evolving and you better get the puck out of your own zone.''
Whitney is in the second year of a six-year contract he signed with the Penguins last season. He was chosen fifth overall by the Penguins in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft.
In Kunitz, the Penguins will be getting an offensive-minded player who won the Stanley Cup in 2007. After campaigns where he put up 60 and then 50 points, the 29-year old Regina-native has 16 goals and 19 assists this season. He has spent the majority of his four NHL seasons with Anaheim.
''(Kunitz) played his heart and soul out for our organization for a number of years and won a Cup with us. It's a tough thing when you have to part with guys who gave so much to win,'' the Ducks' GM said.
''In saying that, you have to give to get. We had to give a valuable part of our organization today to get a young puck-moving defenceman.''
Tangradi, who just turned 20, is having a fine season with the OHL's Belleville Bulls. In 52 games, he has 38 goals and 87 points. He was drafted by the Ducks in the second round of the 2007 NHL Entry Draft.
Both the Penguins and Ducks are in tight battles for post-season berths. Anaheim has 65 points and is in a logjam with three other teams for last two playoff spots in the Western Conference. Pittsburgh, the defending conference champions, finds itself 10th in the East, two points behind Buffalo for the final playoff spot.

The Issues and People Directly Impacting the
World of Sports Business
Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott is a rising star in the world of sports business. In a relatively short amount of time Scott has added 2 teams to the conference, added a championship game in football and now he has orchestrated a $3 billion broadcast and digital rights deal with ESPN/Fox/Pac-12 Network.
Larry Scott joined me on Sports Business Radio to discuss the new broadcast and digital rights deal as well as future plans for the confernece.

As you've probably heard, the Pac-12 recently inked a lucrative 12-year TV deal with ESPN and Fox that is worth $3 billion dollars.
Rachel Bachman of The Oregonian joined me on Sports Business Radio to break down the new deal and discuss how the money will be spent.

The NFL Labor situation is changing by the day and its very confusing for most fans.
Yahoo! Sports NFL reporter Jason Cole joined me on Sports Business Radio to try to make sense of the everchanging NFL landscape.
What strategies will the owners and players utilize moving forward? When will the NFL get back to "business as usual"?
Listen to our conversation here for answers.
On Friday, I caught up with Portland Timbers owner Merritt Paulson when I was guest hosting The Bald Faced Truth on 95.5FM The Game in Portland for John Canzano.
Paulson and I spoke about the hurdles he overcame to land an MLS franchise in Portland and we also talked about his overall business philosophies.

So far the NBA playoffs have been tremendously exciting. And this comes on the heels of a terrific year of TV ratings for the league.
According to the Sports Business Daily, ABC drew 5.1 million viewers for its 15 NBA broadcasts, a 38.3 percent increase from the previous year. It was the best regular-season NBA viewership on a network since the '98-99 season on NBC. TNT drew an average of 2.45 million viewers for its 52 games, up 42.4 percent from the 2009-10 season. ESPN averaged two million viewers for its 73 broadcasts, up 28.3 percent from the previous year.
But as you'll hear during my conversation with ESPN NBA Senior reporter Ric Bucher, the chances of striking a deal on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement by the July 1st deadline are slim.
And don't look for the NBA Players Association to use the same decertification tactic that the NFL Players Association recently utilized in their battle with the owners.
Listen to Ric Bucher and Brian Berger discussing the NBA CBA here.
As the NFL lockout continues, NFL players are getting more nervous by the day about loss of income this fall if there are no games.
ThePostGame.com's Rand Getlin joined us on Sports Business Radio to discuss a story he wrote detailing high interest loans that are being secured by NFL players during the lockout.
Could the loans lead to bankruptcy for several NFL players?

I look back over the course of the past 7 years and there are so many highlights.
I've had the opportunity to go one-on-one with a few men who sit atop their sports - NBA Commissioner David Stern, MLS Commissioner Don Garber, late NCAA President Dr. Myles Brand and now the current NCAA President Mark Emmert and BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock.
Team owners such as Portland Trail Blazers/Seattle Seahawks owner Paul Allen, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt, Washington Wizards/Caps owner Ted Leonsis, Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver, Cleveland Cavs owner Dan Gilbert and Sacramento Kings co-owner Gavin Maloof have joined me to explain some of the key decisions they've made with their franchises as well as share with us the business strategies that have made them successful over the years.
And I've even had the opportunity to chat with several athletes about their business interests. Jack Nicklaus talked about his successful golf course design company that is introducing the game of golf to people around the globe. Oscar de la Hoya spoke about being a successful boxing promoter and part owner of an MLS franchise. Steve Nash shared with us his passion for his charitable foundation as well as his thoughts about his first trip to China when I was with Nash in Beijing in 2007. Former Dallas Cowboys great Roger Staubach joined us to tell us about his race car team and how he interned during his offseasons to learn the real estate business. And Chicago Cubs Hall of Famer, Ryne Sandberg, who I idolized as a kid, joined me to talk about working his way up the ladder as a baseball manager so he can one day hopefully manage a major league baseball franchise.
Even tennis great John McEnroe joined us on the show and serenaded our audience from his hotel room in Paris with "Purple Haze" (one of my favorite moments in our show's history).
If you would have told me 7 years ago that our show would make it to this point and that I'd have a guest list like the one mentioned above, I would have been thrilled. And now looking back on it, if I never do another show, I'd be very proud of what we've done to this point.
Our Sports Business Radio team has been the best part of this voyage though.
Linda Dowden is the winner of our Sports Business Radio March Madness Bracket Challenge. Linda was the only person in our field who correctly picked UConn to win the national championship. See Linda on top of the standings here.
Linda should contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com about coming on the show to gloat!
Congrats again to Linda and thanks to all who entered our competition.
I finished in the top 10 so I can show my face in public.

Troop 6 is a highly diversified urban unit in the City of New Rochelle, NY, known as the "Queen City of the Sound." Our lower Westchester County location, just north of New York City, has allowed a vibrant community to flourish, and our troop reflects the best of that ethnic, racial and religious mix. Troop 6's charter partner is the Presbyterian Church of New Rochelle and we meet Thursday evenings (7:30 - 9:15) in the Church's Social Hall. The year 2007 marked the official 50th Anniversary of the Troop.
In addition to regular Troop meetings, we are very committed to having a full outdoor camping program (check out our calendar.) Because of the vitality of programming, coupled with an emphasis on both the Patrol Method and individual advancement, we retain many of our older scouts throughout high school. This gives us an experienced and trained corps of youth leaders, the cornerstone of running a Scout Troop that excels. A good indicator of this success is that the Troop has never failed to earned Quality Unit designation in all the years that the award has been given.
A motivated and knowledgeable staff of adult leaders forms the last leg of the tripod that supports a good Troop. We have a great blend of old veterans (some with 50+ years in Scouting) to new parents serving on our Committee. Many have served in District and Council-wide positions.
There are currently 8 Eagle Scouts registered with the Troop, and 12 members of the Order of the Arrow, 3 of them Vigil Honor including a Founders' Award recipient.
Interested in joining our Troop??? E-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com
This site conforms to the
BSA Guideline for Unit Websites and
COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act
with regard to scouts 13 years of age or under.

Banksy says the 104-story skyscraper "so clearly proclaims the terrorists won." He says the building "lacks any self-confidence."
Banksy likens it to a "tall kid at a party, awkwardly shifting his shoulders trying not to stand out from the crowd."
He says the essay was intended as a New York Times op-ed piece but the paper declined to publish it.
Times spokeswoman Eileen Murphy says, "We couldn't agree on either the piece or the art so it was rejected."
The artist on Sunday also tagged a building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, with the words "This site contains blocked messages."

Silver Sixpence
There's a designer that I have been in love with for quite a while now, and I'm sure you'll see more of her here in the future. Jenny Packham has been coined as "luxury design", and I couldn't think of a more fitting title. Her designs are so elegant they're almost ethereal. Everything I come across of hers is beautiful and effortless; I never feel like she's trying too hard to be a fashionista in her work, she simply is luxurious beauty. See for yourself here.
I could keep going on about Jenny Packham for hours, but I'll let you form your own opinions instead of thrusting my own onto you! Above are a few of my favorite headpieces from her bridal and ready-to-wear collections. That's right - Jenny doesn't just design clothes, she dabbles in accessories too, and in my opinion her headdresses are some of the most beautiful pieces I've ever seen.
Can I just say how cool Michael van der Ham's clothing concept is? His entire line is based on collage. Every outfit is pieced together in a fun new way. I am definitely a fan. My only wish was that it was priced lower - but what's a thousand dollars for art to wear?
These two pieces from Arda Glassware couldn't be more different…but they're both too lovely not to share! The first is a shallow glass bowl with an antique vibe and a gorgeous robin's egg blue and rustic gold contrast, while the second is an Oyster Dish that sparkles and shines so elegantly it begs to be displayed.
Bonpoint is a children's clothier based in France. Their concept outfits are too fun to pass up - with a boho layered look that is both practical and super stylish. Above are just a few of my favorite looks taken from their main site. I can't get over the little boy's rocker outfit; so fun!

"Overall I was very pleased with this card. I read the reviews before I purchased it so I knew to expect the texture verses a flat card; however, even though the paper wasn't completely smooth, I didn't have a hard time writing on it at all. It has the perfect coloring for what I was looking for, and it looks just like the picture available on the webiste. Also, it is the perfect size for a thank you card with just the right amount of space to write."
"This card was more beautiful in person. The colors are bright and cheery. I'm using them as thank you cards for presents for our new baby and have received many compliments."
"These cards came out exactly how I wanted. The card stock is thicker then most cards you'd buy at a store and therefore are of higher quality in my opinion. Perfect size to fit a short Thank you note. No complaints!"
"These notecards are perfect for the guest of honor to receive as part of her baby shower gift. She can use them to send notes to her guests thanking them for the gifts they brought. They are simple, elegant single notecards with your choice of monogram letter and footer that can be personalized."
"Didn't notice their note until now, how there won't actually be any glitter. I didn't think there would be glitter, but somehow I was still disappointed there wasn't any when I opened it. Still...very cute."

Houston Chronicle reported.(HOUSTON) — Authorities are in pursuit of a man accused of stalking a Houston local television news anchor and traffic reporter, who now "is in fear of her life," the
Investigators, according to the paper, said Christopher Marcus Olson, 38, has been hounding KPRC-TV's Jennifer Reyna since Sept. 14, despite a no-contact order issued by a state district judge in May 2007 after Olson twice crashed his car through the front door of the local news station.
Police have recorded five separate incidents since September in which Olson has followed Reyna from work, waited in an adjacent parking lot for her to arrive at work, and contacted her by phone, bypassing the screening technology she has in place.
KPRC-TV's senior executive producer, Rick McFarland, told ABC News that he was unable to comment on the case. He also said Reyna had chosen not to comment.
Olson was arrested and charged with felony criminal mischief following the second station crash in May 2007. He was also arrested in February 2010 for ignoring the no-contact order, and was released on bond in March 2011, the Houston Chronicle reported.
An arrest warrant for Olson was filed on Dec. 27 with the Harris County District Clerk. His bond was set at $80,000, according to the Harris County District Clerk's Office.
Anyone with information about Olson is asked to contact the Houston police at 713-308-3280.

Citrix Acquires XenSource
The US-based Citrix corporation has just acquired XenSource, a virtualization solutions provider for US$ 500m.
The acquistion will be financed with share options and cash; a sum of US$ 107m has been allocated for conversion to share options. The take-over is scheduled for completion by the end of this year.
Citrix is a supplier of proprietary thin client solutions. XenSource offers free and commercial virtualization software and services. Citrix envisages seamless integration of XenSource virtualization technologies with its own products.
In the press release accompanying the acquistion, Citrix states that "The acquisition will also strengthen each company's strong partnership with Microsoft and commitment to the Windows platform." Following the acquistion, the Xen team will be helping to achieve interoperability with the planned Microsoft "Viridian" hypervisor. The XenSource Team will become Citrix's new Virtualization & Management unit with XenSource boss Peter Levine at its head. Levine will be reporting directly to Citrix President Mark Templeton. Xen project leader Ian Pratt will be continuing Xen's Open Source strategy under the Citrix umbrella.
XenSource has announced the new release of the commercial variant of the XenEnterprise v4 hypervisor software for next week. At the same time, the company reports that user figures have doubled to 650 in the past three months. Based on this, Citrix's expectations for Xen are high with Citrix expecting turover to grow by US$ 50m in 2008.
