Over a candlelit dinner of tuna sashimi, Weev asked if I would attribute his comments to Memphis Two, the handle he used to troll Kathy Sierra, a blogger. Inspired by her touchy response to online commenters, Weev said he "dropped docs" on Sierra, posting a fabricated narrative of her career alongside her real Social Security number and address. This was part of a larger trolling campaign against Sierra, one that culminated in death threats.
Now, seven years later, Kathy Sierra's returned to explain why she'd left and what recent spates of online harassment against women portend for the future if decent people don't organize. Because the situation has grown much more serious since she went into hiding all those years ago. It's more than just the threat of Doxxing to incite physical violence by random crazies with a screw loose.
These days, malicious trolls have taken to SWATting, where harassers call police and make false accusations to induce a SWAT raid. One prominent example is that of game developer Chris Kootra, who experienced a SWAT raid on camera while playing an online video game recently. There is also the troubling trend of developing malicious software intended to harm victims directly. For example, posting images on epilepsy forums which flicker at rates known to induce epileptic seizure. Given that Sierra is epileptic herself, this kind of harmful trolling hits home personally. She writes:
[While not photo-sensitive], I have a deep understanding of the horror of seizures, and the dramatically increased chance of death and brain damage many of us with epilepsy live with, in my case, since the age of 4. FYI, deaths related to epilepsy in the US are roughly equal with deaths from breast cancer. There isn't a shred of doubt in my mind that if the troll hackers could find a way to increase your risk of breast cancer? They'd do it. Because what's better than lulz? Lulz with BOOBS. Yeah, they'd do it.
And yet Auernheimer, the man who put her through all this horror, has for entirely different reasons become a kind of 'Net cause célèbre for Internet freedom. After having committed a hack against AT&T where he'd obtained the email addresses of thousands of iPad users, he attracted the attention of federal authorities. In due course he was convicted and sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for identity fraud and conspiracy to access a computer without authorization. A conviction and sentence many thought egregious. Attracting support from the Electronic Frontier Foundation and prominent Georgia University Law Professor Tor Ekeland, the two worked together to craft an appeal and overturn the conviction. In April 2014, they succeeded. Auernheimer is now free.
Ekeland wasn't the only one bothered by the government's case. Even Kathy Sierra disagreed. Yet she's appalled that somehow she'd been dragged into supporting the very man who'd abused her.
But you all know what happened next. Something something something horrifically unfair government case against him and just like that, he becomes tech's "hacktivist hero." He now had A Platform not just in the hacker/troll world but in the broader tech community I was part of.
... But hard as I tried to find a ray of hope that the case against him was, somehow, justified and that he deserved, somehow, to be in prison for this, oh god I could not find it. I could not escape my own realization that the cast against him was wrong. So wrong. And not just wrong, but wrong in a way that puts us all at risk.
The lawyer Ekeland, in recent commentary at Wired, continues to defend Auernheimer as having been wronged by an overzealous prosecution, the precedent of which could have significant ramifications for 'Net freedom. "...the crucial issue here is not weev or his ideas but the future of criminal computer law in the U.S. You may think weev is an asshole. But being an asshole is not a crime, and neither is obtaining unsecured information from publicly facing servers."
Which leaves Sierra lamenting that Auernheimer still hasn't been charged and convicted for what she considers the real crime of harassment he'd committed, harming her and countless others. Where's the justice? Inciting violence and dissemination of 'fighting words' are not free speech. Yet, as she admits, unless you're a celebrity you're "...more likely to win the lottery than get any law enforcement agency to take action." So there is none. "We are on our own," she laments. "And if we don't take care of one another, nobody else will."
So she came back to push back, to push back against prominent journalists and members in Tech who'd conflate prosecutorial violations of due process with the right to disseminate harassment and cruelty.
I came back because I believe this sent a terrible, devastating message about what was acceptable.
... To push back on the twist and spin. I believed the fine-grained distinctions mattered. I pushed back because I believed I was pushing back on the implicit message that women would be punished for speaking out. I pushed back because almost nobody else was, and it seemed like so many people in tech were basically OK with that.
Auernheimer, for his part, remains unapologetic. Responding to Sierra on Livejournal, he writes:
Yesterday Kathy Sierra (a.k.a. seriouspony), a mentally ill woman, continued to accuse me on her blog of leading some sort of harassment campaign against her by dropping her dox (information related to identify and location) on the Internet.
... Kathy Sierra has for years acted like a toddler, throwing tantrums and making demands whenever things didn't go her way. She rejects any presentation of polite criticism or presentation of evidence as some sort of assault on her. She was the blueprint for women like Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian, who also feign victimhood for financial and social gain. Kathy Sierra is the epitome of what is wrong with my community. She had something coming to her and by the standards set by her own peers in the social justice community, there was nothing wrong with what she got.
Some people never change.
How do US authorities feel about foreign nations hacking into US military and corporate computers? For example, this story: Chinese authorities hacked into Pentagon and other sensitive computers:
China's military hacked into computer networks of civilian transportation companies hired by the Pentagon at least nine times, breaking into computers aboard a commercial ship, targeting logistics companies and uploading malicious software onto an airline's computers, Senate investigators said Wednesday.
A yearlong investigation announced by the Senate Armed Services Committee identified at least 20 break-ins or other unspecified cyber events targeting companies, including nine successful break-ins of contractor networks.
Earlier this summer, in an apparently unrelated investigation, the US accused five members of the Chinese military of hacking computers for economic espionage purposes. It accused them of hacking into five US nuclear and technology companies' computer systems and a major steel workers union's system, conducting economic espionage and stealing confidential business information, sensitive trade secrets and internal communications for competitive advantage.
I'm guessing they don't like that. Which perhaps is what the United States means by "American Exceptionalism".
There's lots of useful free stuff for people who want to emulate ancient computers at pdp11.org.
Exactly. The value of a PhD is diluted by accessibility. The wrong social classes have entered the marble halls of that ivory tower. What's needed is to make the PhD even more accessible by opening the gates to the front courtyard of that educational tower. That way everyone can become a PhD. And to really set yourself apart, private institutions will form to teach "Super PhDs" where only the absolute best gain entrance. Of course, earning a Super PhD takes longer. A newly minted star professor might win tenure and emeritus at the same time. But by these measures, we'll strengthen education, the labor market, the economy and freedom itself.
It's more Cancer Socialism. Clearly, an unregulated private sector education market would lower interest rates and high college tuition costs across the board by fertilizing fields of opportunity ploughed and ready for planting by the roughly calloused hands of entrepreneur students.
I'm all for writing a book. But to set financial expectations appropriately, you should read this first.
As we all know, there's no problem in the labor market that can't be solved with more education.
As President Obama says at the official White House web site, "Earning a post-secondary degree or credential is no longer just a pathway to opportunity for a talented few; rather, it is a prerequisite for the growing jobs of the new economy." Because, as he notes, "With the average earnings of college graduates at a level that is twice as high as that of workers with only a high school diploma, higher education is now the clearest pathway into the middle class."
To help sustain this middle class, the President has proposed policies that will:
- Help Middle Class Families Afford College
- by Keeping Costs Down
- Strengthen Community Colleges
- Improve Transparency and Accountability
Therefore, earning a PhDs must not be enough. What we need is a new credential. Something beyond PhD. A... "Super PhD" that will help high achievers stand out to those employers seeking only the best. Of course, that means longer class schedules, more lab training, in short... more education.
Don't worry, our financial institutions are here to help. Banks will be happy to lend you more with government backed student loans. It's the least they can do for a beleaguered middle class too uneducated to succeed in this high tech economy.
America is that Shiny City upon a Hill, a place where gleaming gold coins lay scattered about ripe for the picking. You only need more education to find them. A new life awaits you in that shining city on the hill. The chance to begin again in a golden land of opportunity and adventure! So come on America, become a go-getter and land that Super PhD! The Sciences are just filled with Gold Coins of Opportunity in this Shinny City on a Hill for those with the right education.
It's the advertising that pisses me off. Easy to turn of WiFi. And I'll never do anything about tower triangulation anyway, other than yanking the battery.

Doctor Simpson is a great Ped's doctor he actually loves each and every patient he has and is without a doubt the most knowledgeable if every doctor were as caring and awesome as him the worldwould be a much better place.
Dr. Simpson has been my kids doctor since they were babies. Now, one of my boys turned 18 and we have to find a new doctor. We are both sad about it because we know we won't find one we like as much as Dr. Simpson. He has a great bedside manner and makes the kids feel at ease. We had an emergency one night and went to the hospital. The next day, I took my son to Dr. Simpson and he found that my son had a fractured skull, something the hospital missed! We really love him and are grateful to have found him. He really cares about his patients.
Dr Simpson has been treating my son since I relocated here 13 years ago. He is thorough, kind and incredibly knowledgeable. The best demeanor and bed side manner of ANY doctor I have met to date. My son is 15 now and the though that we only have him for 3 more years, almost saddens me.
Dr. Simpson is very warm, caring, and professional. He has treated my son since birth and he has the BEST bed side manner. He takes his time and listens to my concerns and answers all of my questions. I would recommend him to any parent looking for a Pediatrician in the Port Saint Lucie area.
DR Simpson has seen my son since birth and I have not 1 complaint! He has been on point with every diagnosis and my son loves him !

Holland 'Recommends' Yesha Products with 'Made in Israel' Label
The Dutch government has advised business owners to refrain from labeling products from the Golan Heights, Judea and Samaria and eastern Jerusalem as "Made in Israel."
In a circular written by the Dutch Foreign Ministry and published on Wednesday on the website of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, stores are advised but not required to replace "Made in Israel" labels with a label reading "Product from Israeli settlement."
This applies to products that require a label, such as fresh vegetables, fruit, wine, honey, olive oil, fish, beef, poultry, eggs and cosmetics products, the notice said. The recommendation is in line with guidelines published in 2012 after a meeting by EU foreign ministers that said that "the European Union and its members are obligated to fully and effectively implement existing EU legislation and agreements with Israel regarding products from the settlements."
The notice also said that labeling products from areas beyond the Green Line as made in Israel would be "misleading," as international law does not recognize those areas as being part of Israel.
The governments of Ireland, Denmark and the U.K. have also stated their support for labeling settlements products.JTA

agree. . . h eliminated the potential threat, and did no more than necessary to prevent potential harm. . .
always wondered why the ole headbutt isn't used more often. . . it's extremely accurate, and can be used in close distance without telegraphing or risking counter punch.
QUESTION: Where do you want to head butt a person? What region of the face/head to ensure the victim goes to sleep? Also, you want to use the part of your head where the forehead and cranium meet? Where it comes together at a 90 degree angle or whatever. . Like in soccer. . . BUT WHERE TO HEAD BUTT THE VICTIM!!!??

If I was going to do it, I'd put the top of my forehead right into the other persons nose. A good shot to the nose, beside being painful as ****, will make their eyes water... making it even harder to fight if they're still able to.

Man, eating a headbutt will ring your brain to it's innercore. I fought this guy that was 5" taller than me and every time he would duck he would just bend at the waist, not using his legs at all, and he'd ram his head straight into my face. So we're fighting in the center of the ring when he crashes his head square into my face, I see nothing but white as distant memories fly past my minds eye and the next thing I know I'm in the corner waging war to fight my way out. Deep inside my brain I swear that I can feel its core throbbing the blood that stings my left eye confirms that I am cut as I see a bulbous swelling taking over the top part of my eye. I ate 5 or 6 solid headbutts in that fight and suffered two cuts requiring a few stitches, but I still stopped him in the 4th..........Rockin'

Good hotel for the area. Would certainly stay there again.My only complaint was that the girl who was in charge of the breakfast area was lazy.
Travelers tip on recreational activitiesPlenty to do. Not far from Ben & Jerrys, Vermont Teddy Bear, Cabot, etc.Rating:5
Lovely hotelLa Quinta is a lovely hotel in Vermont. We have stayed there 2 times before. The beds are clean and comfortable. The continential breakfast is ok, but ends too early. There is a lovely track/park across the street for the exercise enthuiasts.The staff is very cordial and accomodating. We would stay there again.Rating:2
RoomWell where to begin, when I arrived the room was dirty. The shower had chips on the shower that allowed mold to grow. The room had a bad smell to it. I had to go out and buy febreze to get the room to smell half way decent. My parents also stayed at the same time and their room was next door to mine. Their room also had a bad smell and the bathroom floor was sticky. After my mother walked on the carpet for a few minutes her feet were black. The hotel is overpriced and under cleaned. Stay in Burlington, VT. This is roughly a half hour away and has better hotels.Rating:3
Best of all the options available in St AlbansThe hotel has a nice pool & breakfast area. The main portion of the room was clean & comfortable but the bathroom was still dirty & had soap left in the tub & wasnt the cleanest.Rating:5
Very impressed with familyFor a short stay this hotel had everything you needed from a light breakfast to a quick swim in the pool.Rating:4
Best hotel in this area for business travelThis is a relatively new hotel, maybe 3-4 years old. Easy to get to and easy to get to where youre going from it. Beds arent exactly a mound of fluffiness, but they are comfortable enough. Breakfast consists of bagels, toast, waffle machine, hard fruits and juices.

RateBeer has started releasing its annual Best Awards, with a new Ohio brewery already snagging a major award.
Rhinegeist Brewery in Cincinnati was selected as the seventh best new brewery in the world. It's quite an accomplishment, considering there were more than 2,600 new breweries that qualified.
Rhinegeist couldn't be reached for comment.
"Based in Cincinnati's recently revitalized Over-the-Rhine district, Rhinegeist is led by head brewer Jim Matt (who previously served as quality manager over at Sun King)," the RateBeer website says. "The brewery has found success with fresh, self-distributed, dry-hopped goodness like Truth and Spikelet."
RateBeer also has announced state-by-state bests. Here's a breakdown of Ohio:
-- Best brewery: Hoppin' Frog Brewery in Akron.
-- Best new brewery: Rhinegeist.
-- Best brewpub: Jackie O's in Athens.
-- Best beer: Hoppin' Frog DORIS the Destroyer.
-- Best restaurant: Chappys Tap Room and Grille in Moraine.
-- Best brewery taproom: Hoppin' Frog.
-- Best bottle shop: Lizardville in Bedford Heights.
-- Best grocery: Jungle Jim's in Fairfield. (Jungle Jim's also was cited as one of the best groceries in the world to get a beer.)
-- Best bar: Brews Cafe in Granville.
RateBeer bases its awards on millions of reviews completed online by beer drinkers. No Ohio beers made the list of the Top Beers in the World, which was released today (Feb. 3).
The website will release the list of top brewers in the world on Friday. Great Lakes Brewing Co. in Cleveland, Hoppin' Frog and Jackie O's have routinely been ranked among the top 100 breweries in the world.

Vt. House rejects bid for F-35 debateApril 18,2013Vt. House rejects
bids for jet debate
MONTPELIER The Vermont House has rejected attempts to debate the basing of the F-35 fighter jet in Burlington.
During debate Wednesday on a bill to retool the way the top officer in the Vermont National Guard is chosen, House Speaker Shap Smith ruled non-germane a series of amendments offered by Rep. George Cross that would have brought the F-35 issue into the debate.
In one instance, the Winooski Democrat asked for a vote of the House on whether to overrule the speaker. That move was defeated 126 to 11.
The underlying bill would set new standards candidates for the adjutant generals job would have to meet and create a new board to review applications and make recommendations to the Legislature.MORE IN Vermont NewsMIDDLETOWN, Conn.

The Publik Complete Brand & Retail Identity
The challenge was to create a bar targeted at 22-35 year olds who are looking for an environment that is friendly and inviting, and yet neither intimidating nor pretentious.
The Publik is a bar that is casual, energetic and that encourages interaction. A distinct point of difference for the bar is the strong food menu something typically lacking in bars.
The name clearly communicates that this bar is a place for the people, by the people. The visual identity then takes up where the name leaves off; clever pairings with the word "Publik" sets up a whole verbal and visual language for the identity with a bit of attitude. Beer glasses are etched with "Publik Property" and, on a trip to the bathroom, patrons are met with "Publik Exposure" signs above the urinals. Coasters, banners and posters feature the word pairings with rock-and-roll imagery in a playful way: "Publik Enemy" is paired with an empty beer glass, and "Publik Consumption" with an image of an amorous couple. The consumer even encounters the brand as they are about to stumble home: a "Publik Transport" card with local cab numbers is included in their bill.

HARRISBURG - State environmental officials failed to adequately monitor Pennsylvania's drinking-water supply and were slow to inform the public about the results of investigations during the height of the natural-gas-drilling expansion, according to an audit released Tuesday.
The 146-page report, prepared by Auditor General Eugene DePasquale, was sweeping in its criticism of the Department of Environmental Protection's handling of gas-well inspections, and its failure to provide timely and thorough information to citizens between 2009 and 2012.
"The DEP was underfunded, understaffed, and inconsistent" in its regulation of Marcellus Shale well activity, DePasquale said at a news conference.

Santino Marella Has Returned!
So I just got back into pro wrestling maybe....eh.....4 months ago? But so far one character that stands out to me is Santino Marella. I watched the clip of his debut and how totally serious of a character he was, not to mention his past gimmick of Alexis (i think?). WWE just decided to make him an entirely comedic character? What the heck happened. He has so much potential and there he his, doing his famous power walk and making me cringe....
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
"Comedy" happened.
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
He's been a comedy character from day 1 in WWE. I don't remember his debut well, I know he won the IC title from Umaga when Lashley kicked Umaga's ass, and he was a plant in the crowd, but if there was no signs of comedy during that night, it was probably just because it was the appropriate way to introduce him, a heartfelt story for his so called "home country" crowd. The comedy started immediately thereafter, with him just being a bumbling idiot. He's been a goofball for years, this wasn't a random change like Tensai where he just becomes a comedy babyface out of nowhere.
The Russian MMA gimmick, Boris Alexiev probably would've given him a higher ceiling (as there's not much of a ceiling lower than Santino Marella), but Vince refused to use the gimmick because Heyman came up with it and they've had an on and off working relationship for years.
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
One thing I've noticed is that even as a Comedy Character, Santino seems to be a credible competitor, but tends to hold himself back by acting stupid at inappropriate times.
And it tends to hurt OTHER wrestlers' credibility because it basically says that the only way you can beat Santino is if he screws himself over.
Imo, The Cobra is a legit finisher, but here, Santino uses the Cobra, yet because he doesn't have the silly sock, he doesn't put his full effort into it and pretends as if the sock makes his finisher stronger.
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
decent wrestler bad gimmick
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
Fine wrestler, using natural charisma and comedy to go over.
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
I love Santino, I know his current Gimmick hasn't been as over as it was the first half of 2012 but I'm still a mark for him. I'm hoping they give him some kind of push in a more serious way for one of the midcard belts or even a Tag Team run again.
Also does have any Videos of his Russian MMA gimmick?
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
Re: What happened to Santino Marella?
I hate the guy. He may be a good wrestler, who knows? I fucking cheer when he quickly gets beaten or eliminated in the Rumble. It's a crappy Latka from Taxi gimmick that's gotten old. I don't mind comedy wrestlers, but it's all based on a dumb Foreign Man gimmick, not anything original.

I Saved NY Taxpayers $1500.00 – The HPE Drama
Erik who has type-2-diabetes, has swollen legs, knee and ankles and wants to call an ambulance which costs taxpayers on average !500.00 per hospital ride – many people with insurance unnecessarily use ambulances as taxis.
Life Insurance Overview
Life insurance is valuable protection for your family. Many people question whether to buy life insurance because it is an added expense they do not feel they can accommodate. However, purchasing life insurance is one of the most important things you can do for your family, and it is more affordable than one may think. Here is an overview of two types of life insurance policies.
One type of life insurance policy is known as a term life insurance policy. Term life insurance covers the policyholder for a set amount of time. For instance, there are 10 year terms, 20 year terms and so on. They also come in many different forms, such as, no medical life insurance, burial insurance, or you can even get a term policy for mortgage protection insurance. Term policies are often the most affordable types of life insurance, but these policies do not have a cash value once the term expires.
Another common form of life insurance is called a whole life insurance policy. Whole life insurance works to protect policyholders in the same manner as term life insurance policies do. However, at the end of the policy's term, or its maturity date, there is cash value the policyholder can access.
Whole life insurance policies cost more in premiums than term life insurance policies. They also have less coverage to them than term policies have. For many life insurance consumers, the benefit of whole life policies is that there is cash available at the maturity date. If the coverage is not needed, the biggest benefit is for a life insurance holder to realize cash value they can use any way they wish at the end of the policy's term.
Talk with an insurance agent from GoldsmithInsurance.com or a broker to find out which type of life insurance is best for your particular situation. Life insurance is valuable and care must be taken when choosing a policy. You do not want to make such an important decision without the help of a knowledgeable professional.
Benefits of Life Insurance for People Over 50
Many over 50 years of age are rushing to life insurance companies to set up a policy. With the cost of living soaring one of the main reasons people are doing this is to offset these costs and expenses. With unemployment and inflation as well as poor savings plans, life has taken a toll on the over 50 population. In an effort to relieve the financial burden of funeral expenses as more they are beginning to pre-plan with much more gusto. Life insurance policies help to alleviate the financial burden of family when it comes time to make such decisions. Life insurance policies also help to clear debts so that loved ones won't have to deal with the creditors. While many people over the age of 50 hope to leave some money for their loved ones, this simply isn't possible without pre-planning and using a good life insurance policy. Life insurance policies for people over 50 may include:
1. Life insurance premiums that are fixed and guaranteed. This will allow you to plan your budget without worrying about changes in the future.
2. Loved ones won't need to worry about finances upon your untimely death. They'll receive the benefits of the life insurance policy and won't have to face burial decisions and debt resolution without means to do so.
3. Life insurance policy members can often qualify for coverage without having to qualify depending upon a health condition. This is a huge benefit to family members who wish to avoid personal health questions.
4. Family members will receive free advice about financial investment options. Life insurance companies will offer them advice to assure that they are making the best informed decisions regarding the finances.
The decision to buy life insurance can benefit the entire family during a time of crisis so make sure you are covered with an over 50 policy.
Medicare Supplemental Insurance
Keeping with my recent theme of addressing seniors needs, I wanted to discuss Medicare supplemental insurance, also known as Medigap insurance. Medigap insurance is a form of medical insurance that often covers the medical costs that Medicare may not cover. Medigap is provided by private insurance companies and they can help eligible Medicare recipients the ability to pay things like co-pays, deductibles, or co-insurance rates.
Medigap plans work alongside Medicare; for many medical procedure. Medicare will pay its share and then the Medigap insurance will pay what it covers per the individual's plan. Although it can cover many medical expenses that Medicare cannot completely pay for, there are some medical procedures that Medigap cannot cover. For example, Medigap does not cover long-term hospital care, private nursing, or eye and dental care.State governments licenses private insurance companies to sell Medigap insurance to Medicare recipients. In total, there are 12 basic Medigap models that states will license. The names of the policies are commonly labeled Medigap A, Medigap B, etc. As one goes higher in the alphabet up to the twelfth Medigap model plan, the more medical coverage the Medigap policy will cover. Only Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin offer different Medigap plans to its citizens on Medicare.People who are on Medicare Part A or Part B are eligible to purchase Medigap insurance. Medigap insurance does require premium payments per month. If a person has Medicare Part B, they still must pay their Part B premiums and the Medigap premiums. Medigap insurance is eligible to any healthy or sick Medicare recipient; as long as the premium is paid, Medigap will cover its share of the medical costs. Only one recipient is eligible for Medigap; a spouse covered by one's Medicare will not be covered by one's Medigap. Medigap policies sold to Medicare recipients after January 1st, 2006, do not offer prescription drug plans thanks to the creation of Medicare Part D. Medicare Part D is a private insurance program that helps Medicare recipients purchase prescription drugs. Before 2006, many Medigap policies had prescription drug coverage. Medicare recipients who want to a plan to pay for prescription drugs can invest in Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage.Medigap insurance is often confused with the Medicare Advantage plans. Medicare Advantage, or Medicare Part C, are forms of private health insurance that must meet the quality-level of Medicare Part A or Part B. Medicare Advantage recipients are not eligible under Medigap insurance. Some recipients may accidentally have both plans, but Medigap will not pay out any difference in medical costs or drug costs if the recipient has Medicare Advantage. People with Medicare Medical Savings Accounts (MSA) are also unable to receive Medigap. It is actually illegal for an insurance company to sell a person Medigap when they have a Medicare MSA.
At Least Consider Burial Insurance
The cost of a typical funeral is far more than what most people expect. Every element from the plot to the casket and even additional services like a procession contribute to the overall cost. Many people who do not hold life insurance are unprepared for these expenses. Loved ones might not have the financial resources necessary to pay for a proper funeral. Burial insurance helps to cover these costs. There are several reasons to at least consider holding burial insurance.
Burial insurance is far easier to acquire and maintain than many other types of policies. Burial policies do not require a medical examination and will cover a person until at least age 100. The premiums do not change for the life of the policy. The majority of insurers do not require an individual to renew or meet other criteria in order to keep the policy active. Additionally, the premiums for burial insurance are lower than most other forms of insurance that would cover the same expenses.
Specify Burial Services
Burial insurance can allow a person to actually assemble the different elements of a funeral so that the task is not left to friends and family members. This can be done formally through certain preneed policies. It could also be done unofficially through documents and an understanding with the family. Choosing specific burial services in advance will relieve a large amount of stress on loved ones who are coping with loss.
Provide Security for Loved Ones
A final reason to consider having burial insurance or holding policies for family members is to provide security for loved ones. Family members and friends will have to deal with strong emotions after a death. Immediate family might also have to adjust to a sudden loss of income especially for an individual without life insurance. Burial insurance will make certain the family can take the time necessary to adjust and grieve without worrying about funeral costs and taking on debt.
Social Security benefits for couples – It's all about timing
When you and your spouse decide to start looking at approaches to utilize for your Social Security retirement benefits, there are several paths you can take. Unfortunately, some of those options can result in you claiming significantly less than what is ultimately available to you.
To make sure you maximize your Social Security benefits, there are a few tips you and your significant other should consider.
Timing is everything
This one impacts both single and married individuals, but a misstep for a couple compounds the mistake.
You can start receiving Social Security benefits early when you reach age 62 instead of waiting for the official retirement age of 66. If you do so, however, your benefits will be permanently reduced. If you begin taking your benefits at age 62, you will receive about 25% less per month than you would at your full retirement age.
You also have the option of waiting up until age 70. Doing so will see an increase in your benefits of around 8% each year.
I was talking to another financial planner recently that ran an analysis for a client showing them the difference. At age 85, if they had waited until they reached age 66 to start taking benefits, they would have received $150,000 more during that time than if they started taking their benefits at age 62.
Does that mean waiting is the right choice for everyone? No, it does not. Each couple needs to examine their financial situation closely to make a determination. If they do not have a pressing need for the benefits and are in relatively good health, they should wait until at least age 66. On the other hand, if a couple has little in retirement assets, needs the funds to live off of now, or has serious health issues, taking the early retirement benefits is most likely the better solution.
Delay benefits for the higher earner
If one spouse was the major income earner for the couple, it is best to delay their benefits for as long as possible, but not past the age of 70. This can help guarantee that the surviving spouse will collect as large of a benefit as possible when one spouse passes away. The objective here is to maximize the benefit. The higher benefit will be paid to you for life and continue for the life of your surviving spouse.
When it comes to couples making decisions about Social Security benefits, when they choose to start taking those benefits is often the most important decision.
Basic Facts About Replacing FEGLI Whole Life Insurance Vs. Independent Term Life Insurance
The life insurance plan offered by the federal government is called the Federal Employee Group Life Insurance program (FEGLI). When an employee enrolls in a FEGLI whole life insurance plan, he or she may choose a policy that is equal to as much as five times his or her annual income.
Enrollment may take place in the first month of employment or during specified enrollment periods. By enrolling during the first month of employment, the employee may avoid medical underwriting. This means no exam or medical documentation are required.
This is excellent for people who are in a compromised state of health, but it may not be a good idea for someone who is in excellent health because premiums are affected for everyone on the plan.
On the FEGLI program, the cost of premiums goes up fairly steeply as time passes. All enrollees are subject to these increases; however, people who are in good health may be able to get a better deal elsewhere.
Many federal employees are unaware that their premiums are going to increase by more than ten times between the ages of 35 and 55. By the time they reach middle age, they suddenly find themselves paying very high premiums.
Luckily, federal employees who are in good health and are between the ages of 50 and 55 have a few options. By switching from a FEGLI whole life policy to a term life policy, a federal employee may be able to save as much as $200 a month in premiums.
Of course, you do not have to wait until you are 55 to make this choice. You can choose to purchase a term life policy independently rather than participating in a FEGLI whole life policy at any time you wish.
It is important to realize that a whole life policy is in place for your whole life. If you live into your 90s or 100s and pay your premiums, your policy will still be in place. A term life policy is in place for a term – usually 30 years.
You may base your choice on factors such as your current quality of life and typical longevity in your family. If paying very high premiums for a whole life policy very negatively impacts your current quality of life and/or you do not expect to live to be extremely old, a term life policy with lower cost premiums may be a very good choice for you. You can see a brekdown and more details about alternatives to FEGLI policies when you CLICK HERE.
The FEGLI program is very solid and dependable. It is convenient for federal employees, and the insurance comes from Metropolitan Life, a well-known and respected company. Still, if the financial reality of this program is a burden to you, you may very well wish to research your options in either whole life or term life policies from a different company or even term life policies from Met Life. The savings in premiums can be quite significant in the long term.

Workers with children under 6 years of age had an above-average incidence—over 30 percent—of flexible schedules in 1997. Nearly 31 percent of married workers with a spouse present and children under six had flexible schedules, compared with about 27 percent of workers with other marital status and children under 6.

I thinl that brands need to appreciate / respect the universal appeal of the internet to serve the interests of all human beings .Failure to authentically support this leaves you standing out like a sore thumb to those purposefully engaged with Social Media.
The very phrase "cause marketing" sets off my bullshit alarm. If your company wants to become philanthropic, get the board's approval and make it a core part of the business. Using charity as a disposable marketing tool is downright offensive; the recipient is being used as a billboard, and the customers aren't stupid.
A well-run company does improve lives – those of its shareholders, employees, and customers. There's no need for all of those parties to suffer because the firm divests its cash into an amorphous "greater good". Customers are disillusioned enough to sense a marketing gimmick, even if it's sincere.
I agree Zack. We need companies to realize they have a responsibility to their staff, shareholders and society and act accordingly. Only then can we minimize their negative impact and address some of the existing problems. Thanks Zack.

New course. New day. New adventures. Enter the run today.
Forget about the Power of Ten, we've got the power of three!
It's all change here for the third Bud's Run, as we aim to build on the stellar success of the last two years. And with the support of superstars like Hannah England, Paula Radcliffe and Luke Gunn, we're already off to a flying start.
In 2015, we raised £12, 000 for Parkinson's UK. With your help, we think we can beat this figure.
So get ready for a family-friendly 5K like no other. On Sunday 9th October 2016, we'll be starting at 10.30am.
The finish as usual will be under the world-famous "Old Joe" clock tower in Chancellors Court. There'll be loads of things for you, your family and friends to enjoy. We've got a kids race, bacon sarnies, sports masseur, coffee and cake. . .all the ingredients for a perfect day out.
A great field
Although we're proud to be a fun run, we love having a strong field of club and national-standard runners. Hannah England and Luke Gunn are just two of the stars you'll line up next to. And that's why we've chosen Sunday 9th October – because it doesn't clash with any of the road relays, or the Birmingham half marathon.
A Message to You From Bud Baldaro. . .
"It is exciting to launch the third Bud's Run on behalf of Parkinson's UK and we hope to have 1000 participants involved this year. Please do your best to support us."
"Support the great man"
Luke Gunn, Head Coach at the University of Birmingham, said:
"We are delighted that Bud's 5k Run is entering its 3rd year. Last year we were blessed with over 400 entries, but we know we can do even better. The race will move to a new base within the brand new, 360 Sports Centre, which will open in September 2016. The race will still take in the picturesque campus and finish under the ever imposing, Old Joe clock tower. Please come along catch up with friends, test yourself but most importantly support the great man, Bud Baldaro, in the best way you can, by running or supporting this great event, which once again hopes to raise bags of cash for Parkinson's UK."
Can't make it? Then please donate.
"Proud To Be a Supporter"
Here's what Aidan, the manager of Up and Running's Birmingham store, had to say:
"Up and Running Birmingham is proud to be a supporter of Bud's Run 2016. As a company we value the contribution the event makes to the local running community, whilst at the same time raising funds and awareness for an important charity, Parkinson's UK. We are very much looking forward to this year's event and making it the best Bud's Run there has been. See you at the start line!"

Wage formation and costs of employment - 16 September 2016
This conference will seek to move beyond calculations of real wages and explore how piece rates, day rates, and other forms of bargain were formed around labour exchange costs in the early modern and nineteenth century world. Discussion will focus on two questions:
How were payment systems and wages formed by the costs of matching, negotiation, and enforcement of contracts in the labour market?
To what extent did the systems and solutions adopted meet the needs of employers and workers?

Item No.1236309093
Item No.1236309093
Now send skin drearies down the drain. With each passing year skin's ability to do its own daily slough of surface stuff slows down. Skin can look mighty drab and dreary. So we blended extract of crushed Papaya, with creamy cleansers to create a lush-lathering, fruit-smoothie of a face wash. Simply swirl it over splashed-moist skin and watch how swiftly it disposes of dingy, dried up cells, makeup, dirt and debris to totally banish bleakness. Skin emerges with a fresh, radiant sheen. Feels sleek and silky-smooth, never stripped-dry. Melts makeup, dirt and debris to banish bleakness. For oily skin.

Keith Bogans may be the odd man out of the Chicago Bulls lineup, but Carlos Boozer isn't far behind.
Despite averaging 17.5 points and 9.6 rebounds per game last season, Boozer proved to be both a liability in terms of durability and defense. As a result, Chicago may be open to moving the power forward and his lucrative contract.
While Boozer can still be effective offensively, his contract is anything but favorable, and if the postseason was an indication of things to come, there is nothing impressive on the horizon.
That being said, there are still a number of teams that may be willing to take a risk on Boozer.
