Have you heard about The Fox Problem? If not, you're in for a right treat because this is a brand new show that may change the way we watch TV. Oh yes. Broadcast live on Google+ at 7.30 every Tuesday, The Fox Problem sees three ladies - Gemma Cairney of Radio 1, Georgia L.A of SB:TV and Georgie Okell of T4 - hanging out in an East End pub and putting it on the Internet for us all to watch. Or, as Georgia puts it, 'it's like one big Internet cuddle' and you know how much we like those.
Grazia Daily was allowed to sit in the audience for last night's show to see just how it all comes together, from sequinned-festooned outfits to a certain Made In Chelsea star serving cocktails. So listen up as we bring you all you need to know about this foxy new phenomenon...
1. The Three Gs are genuinely friends
Forget a bunch of strangers being plonked in a studio, this trio are actual real pals who met at an Oxfam Jumble Sale. 'Georgia is my best friend in this nuts world we work in,' Georgie told us. 'We came up with the idea about a year ago and always had Gemma in mind as being the third presenter because she's just so positive and genuine.' And we can vouch for that - the natural energy between the trio is undeniable as they lark about together and get the giggles. 'We text each other in the middle of the night and go to the pub every Sunday to discuss our ridiculous ideas,' says Georgie. Sounds good to us.
2. The show takes place in an East London pub
If you go down to The Birdcage on a Tuesday night, you're sure for a big surprise. Each episode is broadcast live from the pub on East London's Columbia Road, which is perfect for that quirky 'party in a pub' vibe. Think TFI Friday meets The Big Breakfast. 'We want to shine a light on this industry, which can often be fake and bring some reality to it,' says Georgie. 'So the show is about partying with my girls, eating loads of food, getting trashed and taking the piss out of celebrities.' Ah yes, ladies after our own heart.
3. Ollie Locke is the bar man
What's a Made in Chelsea star doing in East London? you may well ask. But pick your chins up off the floor because Ollie has brilliantly agreed to travel all the way from posh land to act as the show's bar man. It's genius! He stays perched in the makeshift bar throughout the show, entertaining the crowd with this sordid tales. 'There's no watershed on the Internet so I can talk about dirty stuff,' the tanned totty told us. 'And because it's live, I can't be edited which is refreshing.' And very, very hilarious.
4. We love the foxes' groovy style
'It's the magic rail of dreams!' Georgie raves when giving us a tour of the girls' dressing room. 'Ash our stylist is amazing and brings in these eclectic pieces but there's always a theme to what we're wearing.' So do they have to coordinate, girl band stylee? 'We dress so differently so although we don't have to coordinate, it often ends up that way - usually because one of us will wear something then we all decide to wear the same colour!' Indeed, with minimal fuss the girls decide on their outfits for the evening - a mixture of sequinned trousers, wedged heels, huge hoop earrings and one animal print jumpsuit. It's '80s flash fash at its best.
5. They have opinionated chats
'The initial idea was to film a live chat between girls discussing current issues and viewers can interact,' Georgie says. 'So we open the show by saying that everyone is part of the problem and to get involved, like this week we're discussing online ettiquette'. Gemma agrees that they aim to be honest and opinionated but want to retain a sense of humour. 'The sentiment of Girls has been really inspirational for us,' says Georgia.
6. They're on a Finding Lena mission
...Speaking of which, it seems we're not the only ones obsessed with Lena Dunham. 'Girls is our favourite show of life', says Georgie so they've taken on the small task of getting her to appear on the show. They've enlisted the help of Girls superfan Kellie Olisky who takes part in the show via a Google+ hangout and knows Lena's every movement. Help #FindLena, people!
7. It showcases top music talent
The three Gs are perfectly placed for pulling in the hottest musicians thanks to their various contacts. They've already bagged Mikill Pane (watch the performance above) and Roses Gabor to perform live on the show and this week, we were treated to Nimmo and the Gauntletts who went to school with Georgia. How handy! The Riddler is a fun addition too, the self-proclaimed 'star of the show' who sings user messages from his keyboard in the corner a la Jonathan Ross' four poofs and a piano.
8. It's ALL interactive
What makes the show so original is YOU have the power to change what happens via the power of the interwebs. As the show is streamed live, viewers are in on every step of the action and are able to control which host is saved from completing an embarrassing dare via Twitter in a genius-ly titled G Spot segment. 'It's terrifying because although we rehearse everything, we have no idea what people will say, if the hangout will work, if anyone will interact with us,' says Georgie. 'But that's the best and worst thing about it: you never what's going to happen.'
Join the party every Tuesday at 7.30 on Google+ Hangout, www.thefoxproblem.com and www.google.com/+FoxProblem

Awards Season is now well and truly over, which means stars no longer spend their Sundays getting stuffed into couture, but stick to off-duty casual wear. Over the weekend Jessica Alba wore a sunny yellow jumper and Rachel Zoe wore a monochrome striped top, a black maxi and a black fedora to play in a park with her adorable little boy.
But this is tinseltown so of course there was a premiere or ten. Over in New York it was the premiere of the 'Croods' where Blake Lively flashed those pins in a Marios Shwab mini with Bottega Veneta white heels. Talk about next season now, the dress was fresh off the runway from the Fall 2013 collection and featured one of the hottest trends for Autumn 2013... a flash of PVC. Emma Stone freshened up a strapless Lanvin dress by wearing a white jersey top underneath and piling on Lanvin necklaces.
It was also the SXSW Music, Film + Interactive Festival over the weekend, where it was all about Dolce Dolce Dolce. As Olivia Wilde wore a striped monochrome Dolce & Gabbana dress to the screening of The Incredible Burt Wonderstone and Selena Gomez wore a cropped Dolce bustier with an orange pencil skirt to the screening of Spring Breakers. The girls of SB are certainly on a mission to sex up their red carpet image with crop tops, thigh slits and bodycon.
Allison Williams is our new girl crush, and she upped the style stakes this weekend at an event to celebrate her Boston Common Magazine spring cover in a Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2013 patterned dress cinched in at the waist with a patent leather belt. We LOVE.
Who do you think was the best dressed this weekend? Take a look through the gallery above and let us know who gets your vote...

Delegate ABCs
|Line 1:
|Line 1:
One of the many advantages a society enjoys when it
One of the many advantages a society enjoys when it
Latest revision as of 07:49, 30 August 2013
One of the many advantages a society enjoys when it joins the Federation of Genealogical Societies is that the society will be represented by a delegate. Each society, regardless of size, selects one delegate to be the interface between the society and the Federation. Some delegates are elected by a vote from the membership. Other delegates are appointed by the president or by the governing board. Individuals are encouraged to volunteer for election or appointment to this important role.
The delegate is the voice of the society. The delegate is familiar with the workings of his or her own society as well as the procedures and activities of the Federation. A delegate's duties are to:
- Represent the society by attendance at the Federation's annual meeting which is held in conjunction with the FGS conference each year.
- Express the views of the society to the Federation so as to aid FGS in its planning and decision making.
- Relay news of Federation services, activities and projects to the society and clarify their importance.
- Be available to assist with Federation projects and activities.
- Vote in Federation elections and on issues, always voting the position of your society rather than a personal view.
There are many ways the delegate can heighten the visibility of his or her society. For example, as an FGS member organization, submitting news of your organization's upcoming events to the FGS online calendar (instructions are at http://www.fgs.org/events.php) brings publicity to a national audience. And writing an article for electronic FGS FORUM quarterly magazine or submitting a notice for the FGS Voice Blog and/or the FGS Voice Newsletter about a successful project allows other groups to witness your achievement and provides them with a blueprint for a similar project.
[edit] FGS AS AN UMBRELLA
While the above serves to remind us of what a delegate can do, the question may be asked, what does an umbrella organization do?
The Federation of Genealogical Societies functions to address issues within the larger community that are too time-consuming or complex for single, smaller groups to undertake alone. An alliance of several societies reduces individual costs, risks, duplication of efforts and competitiveness. At the same time, a collective effort pools talents and resources.
To understand how an umbrella organization can be effective, consider the Civil War Project. At a national level, the Federation of Genealogical Societies mustered volunteers throughout the country to create the Civil War Soldiers and Sailors Database (http://www.nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers-and-sailors-database.htm), a free database of more than 5.5 million names of those who fought for the Union or the Confederacy. Likewise, FGS has partnered with the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to raise funds for the digitization and indexing of the War of 1812 Pension Files. The electronic records are then being added to Fold3.com (http://www.fold3.com) where they will be accessible for free forever.
[edit] FGS REVIEW BENEFITS
Another FGS member benefit is the review of a society's bylaws, newsletter, and/or web site. Societies may submit their bylaws for a non-binding review of their governing documents. Committee members who provide the review have worked on dozens of sets of bylaws, served as parliamentarians for genealogical and historical organizations and are well-acquainted with the interpretations and ramifications of non-profit bylaw structure. Suggestions may be made regarding the arrangement of the articles, additions or deletions of articles and wording of the document. Newsletters and web sites are reviewed with structure, content, ease of use, and other features in mind.
[edit] FGS PERIODICALS
The Federation publishes two periodicals. One is designed for quick and easy delivery (via email or at the FGS website) and is aimed at the delegate and society officers. Formerly titled Delegate Digest, this publication is now known as the FGS Voice Newsletter. It is published once a month, and it allows member societies to advertise events, promote society projects and keep informed of Federation events. Society delegates as well as officers and members may subscribe. Contact the editor at <firstname.lastname@example.com>.
The second periodical is the FGS FORUM, FGS' electronic quarterly magazine. FORUM is published quarterly for viewing by subscribers (at very attractive annual, bi annual, and tri-annual rates). Two free subscriptions are given to each member society. One of these is for the delegate. FORUM features articles on methods and sources, book reviews, records access updates and news of exciting projects and developments in the field of genealogy. Each issue includes a calendar of society events and a list of member organizations.
[edit] THE DELEGATE ABCs
Each genealogical society, historical society, and family association that is a member of the Federation is entitled to one Delegate. The following list describes the ABCs, as it were, of the role of the delegate.
A – Awards. Societies are encouraged to recommend nominees for FGS awards. The awards are listed at <www. fgs.org/awards> along with their criteria and instructions for submitting names. A list of past award recipients is also at the website. Delegates can remind their societies of this opportunity to recognize valued people whose contributions have made a difference to the field of genealogy.
B – Build. Build a bridge between your society and the Federation. As delegate, it is important to let the society know what is going on with the Federation. At the same time, you can keep FGS informed about the activities of your society.
C – Communicate. Tell other societies about the Federation. The effectiveness of the Federation depends in large part upon the size of its membership. By sharing news of Federation benefits and activities, you will encourage non-member societies to join. This adds volume to the Federation voice and empowers even the smallest society in promoting favorable conditions for the pursuit of genealogy.
D – Delegate. Delegate of the Day and Delegate of the Conference offer exciting prospects at the Federation's annual conference. Did you know you can win a free registration for your society to the next FGS conference by entering the daily delegate drawing, in person, at the FGS annual conference?
E – E-zine. The e-zine publication of the Federation is the FGS Voice. The Voice is a free monthly newsletter available to readers throughout the genealogical community.
F – FGS FORUM Online. FORUM is the Federation's quarterly online publication that is available at no charge to delegates along with one copy to the primary contact person of each member organization. Others can subscribe at very attractive annual, bi-annual, and tri-annual rates.
G – Go. Go to conferences. Networking with the other delegates who attend the conference will generate ideas to take back to your society members and officers.
H – Help Preserve History. Encourage your society to donate one dollar per member per year to the Stern NARA Gift Fund managed by FGS. This fund, established in 1983, finances finding aids and the microfilming of valuable records held by the National Archives. The Canadian Border Crossings 1895-1954 is just one of the resulting microfilm collections available through National Archives Regional Branches and LDS Family History Centers. The Civil War Soldiers and Sailors Database (http://www.nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers-and-sailors-database.htm) was created and made available for free on the Internet. You can also encourage both your society and its members to contribute to current fundraising preservation initiative for the War of 1812 - Preserve the Pensions Fund (http://www.preservethepensions.org/).
I – Inform. Inform the Federation about your society's events, projects, issues and success stories.
J – Join. If you know of a society that does not belong to the Federation, encourage it to join.
K – Know. Know what the Federation can do for your society. From reviews of bylaws to discounts on publications, from Society Hall to the Society Strategy Series, FGS services and products are designed to help your society be a stronger organization.
L – Learn. Learn from other delegates who can offer innovative ways to revitalize your society. Do this by attending the Society Management Track at the FGS national conference---four or more presentations designed for delegates and society officers.
M – Membership. Membership to the Federation is available to genealogical and historical societies, family associations, libraries and archives, and genealogical vendors worldwide. Dues are based on the size of the member society. A society with 6,000 members will pay a different fee than will a society of sixty members. There are special rates for libraries and archives and for vendors.
N – New? If you're just learning about the Federation and the delegate responsibilities, you are in for lots of new ideas to benefit your society.
O – Officers. Federation officers and board members conduct the business of the Federation and chair or serve on committees. Officers are elected for two-year terms, board members serve three-year terms. Officer and board candidates may be nominated by member organizations for (1) consideration by the nominating committee or (2) placement on the slate. Automatic placement on the slate occurs when the member society nomination is accompanied by the written consent of the nominee and the signed endorsement of five (5) delegates from other societies. All submissions must include brief biographical and contact information for the nominee.
P – Publications. The Federation publishes the Bylaws Workbook (http://voice.fgs.org/2012/08/fgs-announces-new-publication-bylaws.html).
Q – Questions. Do you have questions regarding the running or establishment of a society? Contact <www.fgs. org> and we'll help you.
R – RPAC. The Records Preservation and Access Committee is a joint committee on which FGS serves with the National Genealogical Society, the Association of Professional Genealogists, and the International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies. The committee's White Paper – Open Access to Public Records: A Genealogical Perspective (2009) may be downloaded at no charge. As a delegate, you are encouraged to become a state liaison or to submit information about pending legislation or other access issues in your state or local area. Visit <http://www.fgs.org/rpac/>.
S – Society Hall. The Federation sponsors a great opportunity for a member society to increase their visibility at little or no cost. Society Hall (http://www.fgs.org/cstm_societyHall.php) provides a free link from the FGS website to the home pages of individual member organizations.
T – The Society Strategies Series. Brief and succinct, these four-page papers are designed to help in all areas of society management. Topics are wide-ranging--- from officers' duties, to obtaining non-profit status, to presenting successful multi-track conferences.
U – Umbrella. The Federation is an umbrella organization serving nearly 600 member societies. FGS maintains an active collective voice at the national level to help promote decisions and activities that strengthen and benefit genealogical research throughout the country.
V – Vote. Delegates vote for FGS officers and board members. Full biographical information on each candidate accompanies the annual ballot which is sent directly to delegates. Your vote is needed to elect the best candidates who will serve and represent your society at the national level.
W – Wednesday. Wednesday is the day traditionally devoted to society management at each FGS conference. Special workshops and lectures, the delegate luncheon and the annual meeting offer great ways to view different aspects of running a society. Wednesday is an opportunity to exchange ideas with society management experts and to discover techniques and strategies that have worked for other society officers. Wednesday will give you many ideas and practices to carry back to your society.
X – Xercise. …make that Exercise. As a delegate you will be able to exercise your voice and vote concerning issues of vital importance to the genealogical community, such as the preservation and availability of historical records at all levels of government.
Y – You. You play the single most important role in the Federation. You are the voice of your society to FGS, and you are the voice of FGS to your society.
Z – Zest. As you approach your role as delegate to the Federation of Genealogical Societies, do so with zest and vigor.
Activism and enthusiasm promote positive change and progress. Our common goal is to create a better environment for genealogical research in the United States and beyond. Will you join us as a delegate to help make this happen?

Well, for what it's worth, Expertise will increase your chance to hit by double the amount hit rating will up until you hit 26 expertise on the sheet, for almost every move you rely on for threat.
Strength will increase the damage, but the application of both gets sticky as you have to trickle it down through every ability, and appreciate how much each ability contributes to your total threat.
As a tank, if you're concerned with threat, I'd first make sure that you are at or above 26 expertise before even considering looking at Strength. After that, you can still stack Expertise and have fine effect.
If you want to talk specifics, it gets a lot more time consuming to work out the total effect of each.

Business & Economics :: Cost Engineering
September 27, 2011
Les Bryson and Nichole Gaudette, alliantgroup
In today's economy, businesses have become more cash-conscious. The focus on expenses has become increasingly important to the bottom line. Typically, the top three business expenses are wages, raw material costs and taxes. If jobs are cut, or raw material purchases are reduced, margins may be salvaged in the short term, but over a period of time, lack of inventory and production shutdowns can prove to be costly.
A benign way of cutting costs is reducing the tax burden. By taking full advantage of the R&D tax credit, many chemical process industries (CPI), with annual sales ranging from five million to more than one billion dollars, have achieved annual tax savings of anywhere between $50,000 and $1.5 million.

Superb vegan protein
7 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer2764634 on Aug 24, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
This stuff doesn't taste fantastic, but doesn't taste that bad either. It dissolves beautifully in liquid, which is in contrast to every other rice protein I've tried. What makes sunwarrior a superior choice for protein is that it has a complete amino acid profile and is raw and not chemically processed. Highly recommended. A special note to Australian customers: get the vanilla one because for some reason the unflavoured one can't be sent to Australia. I don't know why though.

My husband and I absolutely love this shake!!!!!! This is one of the ONLY raw vegan shakes without a million ingredients. Whenever they have Anton of ingredients they tend to give us both a stomach ache. We use the vanilla which usually we are chocolate people but the chocolate is very chalky. I mix mine with water or coconut water, stevia, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground flax or hemp and a little cayenne pepper to make it a little picante!!!!! I like it a lot and the quality and results are wonderful!!!!

'I'm so happy!' Millie Mackintosh told us when we grabbed a chat with her earlier today. 'I'm just over the moon and completely in a dream.' In case you hadn't heard, the Made In Chelsea star got engaged to her beau Professor Green on Monday night after he popped the question in Paris. We wanted to wish the lovely lady our congratulations and, of course, grill her on how her beauty regime will change now that there's a Big Day looming. Here are her beauty thoughts...
'How lucky that I'd had my nails done!'
I was wearing a beige Shellac manicure [on proposal night] and although I'd never filed my nails in a pointed shape before, I took inspiration from Rosie [Fortescue]. It's also the first time I've worn a nude nail colour, which I'd always thought would look gross but actually elongates your fingers and is really elegant.
'I'll be sticking to classic manicures'
The Perfect Ten team come to my house which is really handy. I'm tempted to go for a crazy nail art design like little hearts! But typically, I like classic nails and a French manicure looks stunning with an engagement ring. I'll be sticking to baby pinks or if I want a stronger colour, dark browns or reddy-purples.
'I can't stop looking at my hands!'
The ring draws attention to my hands so I need to keep them in tip-top condition. I've been coating them in a thick layer of lotion before I go to bed and they're really soft by morning.
Millie's latest manicure
'More than ever, all eyes are on me'
Obviously on the wedding day but also in the build up to it, people will be looking at me. My skin suffers when I've had too much alcohol and sugary foods and I want my skin to look the best it ever will. The worst thing that could happen is having a breakout on the Big Day! So I'll have twice-weekly face masks and I'm a fan of double-cleansing for a deep clean. I use Manuka Doctor's ApiNourish Restoring Night Cream (£24.99, 50ml) in the evening and ApiClear's Foaming Cleanser (£16.99) after using the ApiNourish Hydrating Cleanser (£19.99, 100ml) to remove my makeup. I love Manuka Doctor's Rejuvenating Face Mask (£49.99, 50ml) which is perfect to put on when you're in the bath with rose-scented oils and a Moroccan Oil hair mask. There's so many things to think about but this is the one time in my life that it's all about me so I'll make sure I get lots of 'me time'.
'My wedding makeup will be very natural'
I'm not a fan of wearing a smokey eye on your wedding day so I'll just enhance everything that I have naturally. I'll wear false eyelashes and have glowy skin with a bit of contouring but I would never wear heavy makeup. I'll be going to my friend Tanya Burr for advice and products, especially because she's engaged too.
'I'm considering wedding day hair extensions'
While I'll do my own makeup on the day, I'll have someone else doing my hair. I'll consider extensions just so I can achieve a particular look for the day. I occasionally wear clip-in extensions when I want more volume because I find it hard to grow my hair and the longer it gets, the thinner it is. But I haven't decided on the style yet because it depends on the dress. I haven't let myself think about what I'll wear yet because I'm just enjoying the feeling of being engaged.
'I want Jennifer Aniston arms!'
I need to start my wedding diet, but it's not about losing weight, it's about toning and looking after myself. It's going to be difficult though with the amount of people who want to celebrate the engagement! For me, celebrating is all about having macaroons, cocktails and cakes so it could be tricky.
'The dress hunt is what I'm most excited about'
I haven't started looking for the dress yet because I want to do it with my family and friends. I do have an idea of what I want, but I'm not going to say!
Ooh, what a tease! Check out Millie's best beauty moments in the gallery below...

There's a myth when it comes to fashion week that fashion editors don't eat. As anyone following the GraziaFashionEd Instagram will know, at this mag, it certainly isn't the case. However, we will confess to having some extremely strange food diaries when it comes to show time – mostly out of necessity but sometimes out of pure greed (you try turning down a plate of macaroons!)
What's more every fashion week is different. In New York it's all about room service because the manic workload created by the time difference means you spend more time locked in your suite bashing out copy than wining and dining. For us it was all about a menu of cheeseburgers (…when in Rome), club sandwiches and Karlie Kloss' cookies (a FROW treat at DKNY).
London's crazy back-to-back skedge compounded with traffic jams and heaving seating arrangements always leads to famish to feast situations – three Bourbon biscuits till four then a banquet of hot dogs for a major carb-rush. While we certainly do not advocate the nutritional value of said diet, we will say it makes you particularly adept at snagging canapés. Our top rules for cashing in on the free food include: a) Seize your moment: see a waiter, stalk, then clean the black slate plate - this is no time for courtesy, b) Always take a napkin – ideal for storing morsels for when you're on the go, and c) Avoid seafood. No particular reason, aside from the fact the runways won't wait for your Immodium moment to pass. Enough said.
If all this seems a bit piecemeal, you'll be pleased to hear that Milan Fashion Week is much more plentiful in the food stakes. The home of pasta, pizza and pastries galore, we were well-watered and fed at all times. Favourites included lobster taglietelle, aubergine Parmigiana, tuna tartare, and beef carpaccio, all washed down with a good serving of Prosecco. Sure we never found time for the Italian Full-Monty of pasta, meat, fish and pudding, but we definitely got on the Eat, Prey, Love foodie-train. Talk about bellissima.
Next up is Paris, which from previous experience offers paltry portions at dinner and few chances to grab anything more than a Paul Croque Monsieur for the rest of the day. So a month of really weird, anti-G.I eating – as much as we love fashion week, we have to admit we cant wait to get home to a hearty portion of bangers & mash. Alternatively, if anyone fancies an Italian city break, we're definitely game!

First issue with this is the usage of the word "mob". In gaming, a mob is not a group of creatures, which it appears you're referring to it as. This will confuse your readers. In gaming, MOB is short for "movable object", and would only refer to one creature individually.
"A pack of 8 mobs" = a pack of 8 monsters
"Boss mob" = a ?? level monster
Getting into your questions:
Cleave is a supplementary skill. It, like Heroic Strike are off the GCD, so you can use it in conjunction with your other abilities. There's no reason, if you have the rage for it, not to use it along with TC, SW, SS and devastate. If you run heroics primarily, go ahead and glyph it if you want. If you're a raid tank, don't. There's no reason not to use it if it does not interfere with your higher-threat single target and aoe abilities.

Review this movie
Nov 13, 2014"Hyde Park on Hudson" 10 Scale Rating: 4.0 (Bad) ...
The Good: Bill Murray was amazing as FDR. The execution was lacking, but the subject matter was interesting.
The Bad: Slow and boring, the film puts you to sleep with it's pacing. Most of the time you find yourself waiting until Murray re-appears on screen as no one else is even remotely interesting. The film takes some liberties with history, which I am usually fine with to an extent, but some were glaring and difficult to ignore.… Expand
Apr 23, 2013Hyde Park on Hudson tells two stories and because of it, it feels like two films, one excellent, the other not so much. The film follows a weekend hosted by Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Bill Murray) for the king of England George the 6th and his wife queen Elizabeth. They are coming to ask for assistance in the unavoidable conflict that is the 2nd world war despite the fact it hasn't started yet. Meanwhile sixth cousin to FDR, Daisy begins a romantic affair with the president. The first story Hyde Park on Hudson introduces you to is that of Daisy (Laura Linney), the innocent woman who narrates most of this odd tale. However the Daisy represented at the beginning of the film is drastically different from that of the end of the film, for starters shes likable. Some might say for good films to be good the characters must change and to an extent that is true. However when a character changes so drastically and so unrealistically it ruins the story you are watching, you are left with a nagging feeling that this shouldn't happen. Such is the problem with Hyde Park on Hudson, a story about a shy woman finding her voice, its just shocking and slightly disgusting that the voice she finds within her is one I have absolutely no desire to listen to or follow. Not only does this new version of her emerge in a final act so rushed you might forget it even took place. It turns Daisy into what I can only describe as a manipulative concubine as if instantly and without logical reason. This long offensive picture does help its cause with its second story, the story that Daisy witnesses but never affects. When the king and queen arrive the film livens up and finally has something interesting to say. Not only does their story have a dark, serious war shaped core but it is also a jovial, light hearted tale of the differences and similarities of two countries and how through a simple act of desperation/hope they rekindled a connection that was long since severed. This story is one of friendship and joy, of fear and dread too and that's the kind of story I want to watch. The performances in the film are good and when it comes to Bill Murray and Olivia Coleman they are extraordinary but it can't help the film recover from a severe problem with its lead character. Linney herself is fine in the role and she makes do with what she is given but ultimately the film tells her story in a way that removes the viewers empathy and interest, you think she deserves what happens to her in the final act and maybe even something worse. The script has serious problems, most of which are plot related but there are also a few clunkers hidden away in the great dialogue. Ulitmately the film is let down by its director (Roger Mitchell) who portrays FDR more like the creepy uncle than the man behind the curtain, the wizard capable of doing great things while also having his many flaws. He somehow manages to show him as a wonderful man, a great leader and a man full of virtue and then flip him into something dark, camp and creepy, almost as creepy as the child catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. These changes cause huge tone problems and unfortunately Daisy gets stuck in the middle and gets indoctrinated by the wrong version of the man, the perverted old wretch who has nothing of value to say. If I wanted to watch a film that unintentionally ruins the persona of a president due to terrible direction and bad plotting I'd watch W. again.… Expand
Jan 25, 2013It is slow only for the briefest moments and the humor has a delightfully sunny quality to it, as does Murray's performance. Bill Murray is the best he's ever been and Laura Linney is at the top of her game. This is a sleeper at the Oscars this year and if competition wasn't so thick with great performances in the acting categories they both would be worthy for a nomination. It also is a good companion piece for those who enjoyed The King's Speech.… Expand
Jan 9, 2013Of the heels of the exceptional 'Lincoln' comes the lackluster 'Hyde Park on Hudson'. Its a movie about the affair between President Roosevelt and his distant cousin; and it' also accounts the weekend visit of the King and Queen of the UK in 1939. I was hardly impressed with this this dull, ditsy biopics, that does nothing to advance this president or the events that took place. It's not that the subject was bad, it's the way the story was written and directed that made it lame. Bombarded with lazy narrations, irked by the distasteful presentation of the facts and repulsed by its baity approach, I could barely find it in me to write this review. Though there was high production value and efforts made by Bill Murray to charm; the film was simply an un-insightful dud, that's sure to be forgotten in a matter of minutes.… Expand
Jan 7, 2013The title refers to Franklin Roosevelt's personal home, where he sought solitude and escape from his Presidential duties. It's here that the first English king ever to step foot in the US comes to visit and ask for support against Hitler. This makes for entertaining social/political moments, thanks largely to the delightful performances by Samuel West and Olivia Colman as the monarchs. However, the story is told through the eyes of one of the President's "companions" (Laura Linney), so it takes on a decidedly emotional essence. Bill Murray does a fine job as Roosevelt and the other performances are uniformly engaging. The setting, art direction and cinematography are attractive, but this the surprise/dissappointment is that the majority of the focus is on the woman's personal journey. This softens the whole thing and make is more of a prestige chick flick.… Expand
Dec 15, 2012By far the most underwhelming movie I've seen this year. I feel like one major problem of this movie is that it can't decide whether it wants to be a dramatic historically accurate biopic along the lines of Lincoln or some kind of history-based comedy, and as a result it falls short in both departments. This is mostly thanks to the fact that there are so many elements of FDR's life being crammed in that it all feels underdeveloped & underexplained to someone much as myself who doesn't know very much about him or the events surrounding him during the course of the movie, and at times it felt very disjointed & uncohesive. I kinda understood what was going on but not enough to really become invested in the situation. Also, as I said, this movie is very underwhelming in nearly all areas, especially in the first half when there is absolutely no good humor or emotional weight, or anything patiularly interesting happening really. Doesn't help that a lot of the "development" was provided by a very forced & unnecessary continuous voiceover, by one of the characters, that did nothing but spew exposition so the actual story didn't have to. If there's anything positive to say here it's that it picks up a bit in the second half, even though by that point it's too little too late. There were a couple hilarious moments then, one when the king was asked before the picnic if he would have a hot dog & another when he actually does eat the hot-dog, which is full of hilariously awkward suspense & will remain one of my absolute favorite movie scenes of 2012. Still, one brilliant scene & well-done acting all around can't save Hyde Park on Hudson from mediocrity, and it gets a 55/100 from me.… Expand
Dec 12, 2012This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A couple of scenes in Hyde Park on Hudson are spectacular - one of which is the first night that the King of England meets privately and informally with Roosevelt in his study over drinks and smokes. Historically interesting and very emotional, I would have loved to have seen this as the basis for the movie. Instead, we get another story of a US president who wants a tug-job and more from 4 or 5 of his female aids, advisers, and distant cousins. As soon as that Animal House moment hits: "Is it supposed to be this soft?" my anticipation and excitement for the movie took a nosedive. And when Daisy (Linney) realizes that she's not FDR's only mistress and the levers of power kick into gear to convince her to stick around despite her anger, the remainder of the movie becomes trivial. I would have loved to see time devoted to FDR's decision to help the British. Instead, we learn how Daisy's diaries were found, which led to this not-so-exciting story. So yes, Murray and Linney are terrific. But I would have preferred to have seen them in a more substantial film.… Expand
Disappointing given the talent and situation, dull as ditchwater and historically suspect, another "The King's Speech" it definitely is not. Nice costumes, though.

Aug 30, 2013So 'The Way, Way Back' was just released in England, and because I'm a huge fan of 'Little Miss Sunshine' I checked it out. I wasn't disappointed. GREAT FILM! Absolutely hilarious, it found that perfect line between comedy and sad reflection, which 'Little Miss Sunshine' did so well, you can really feel the presence of the producers in this film which if you're in doubt of whether to see this film or not should reassure you.
Acting wise the entire cast was great, I enjoyed seeing Carrell in a bad guy role, as he doesn't normally do that, essentially he is a "C U Next Tuesday" in this film, which is great, he performs the role perfectly. Sam Rockwell was brilliant. As were the rest of the cast not a single bad performance. A mesmerizing ensemble cast.
All in all this was a great film, it is a great summer movie, I love that line where you can take a situation as either comedy or sadness, it makes the film more personal to the viewer, which this film is brilliant at. I love the way that when the film makes you sad it is always going to bring you back to being happy with hilarious scenes, dialogue and situation humor.
INCREDIBLE FILM and a must see.… Expand
Dec 4, 2013Some movies are just meant to tell a little story and not be some big deal. That's all this was and it succeeded. If you can't relate to someone in this movie, well you live a nice life. OK, I would have given this an 8, but honest to dog, it made me cry a little. That never happens. Even the hokey predictable ending was satisfying. The story didn't spin off into some complex plot, it just moved along character-driven, illustrating the pitfalls of blending families. It's the first time I enjoyed Carell, he was believable for a change. I was so happy the kid met Rockwell, everyone needs an adult who isn't a parent.… Expand
Aug 3, 2013This movie was absolutely brilliant. It touches on your heart strings. The characters all had strong personalities except for the protagonist, which made him stand out the most. I could really feel the pain of the protagonist and the ending was fantastic. This movie is a must see.
Jul 7, 2013The Way Way Back could have been as good as Little Miss Sunshine but manages to make you weep with great acting from Sam Rockwell, excellent screenplay which is included with masterful direction. Must watch this season- hardly, doesn't deserve to be missed.
Jan 19, 2014One of those feel good films that everyone can relate to in some way. You can't help but feel bad for the kid sometimes and feel so overjoyed when something good happens. Basically, this movie connects you emotionally to this character and the character development is marvelous. And Sam Rockwell? I want to be his friend in real life. Brilliant.
Jul 23, 2013Great movie! It manages to touch your emotions and make you wanna cry. The plot is interesting and makes you feel sorry for the main characters. I highly recomend people to watch this as I was emotionally touched by this movie.
Jul 22, 2013A super sulky pubescent (Liam James) is stuck with his mom and her bf (Toni Collette & Steve Carell in a non-comic role) at a summer beach house. He finds fun and friendship at a local water park. The plot's familiar, so it's up to the storytelling and characters to make it special. Sam Rockwell and Allison Janney create enjoyable people, but the rest of the people aren't especially interesting. It's predictable and things take too long to happen. Except for Sam Rockwell (as the mentor), things aren't that funny or heartfelt when they do.… Expand
Nov 27, 2013There are good movies, bad movies, and movies so south of bad that I had to walk out early on. It's so much worse than terrible that it was painful to sit through the "humor." I don't know whether to be more surprised that only two users rated it negative or that so many people liked it. I am certainly surprised that Andrew O'Heir gave it 80. Basically you have parents who treat their children terribly, which isn't funny, and running gags like unsuccessful lazy eye surgery that really isn't funny. Add to that the fact that Janney either has no flair for comedy or her director has no talent for comedy, or both.… Expand
Dec 4, 2013Perhaps the most beautiful film I've seen in a year. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry. It has the whole package. A great script, and not a single bad performance. Steve Carell plays the bad guy very well. Which is surprising, i didn't know he could pull it off. Sam Rockwell....well, rocks. Totally brilliant. And the rest of the cast are top-notch.
I'm very glad that i checked out this movie. Coming-of-age stories are one of my favorite types of stories. And this movie should be watched by any fan of that kind.… Expand
Jul 27, 2014What most impressed me, was Steve Carrel with the role of the bad guy... With most of time facing the reality, it makes the movie be such a great experience to have. Its really amazing and worth to watch.
Sep 7, 2013While critics are always on the lookout for the next Citizen Kane and score poorly when a film fails to come up to scratch those who aren't paid to go to the movies are on the lookout for good entertainment for 90 minutes. This delivers.
Warm, touching, funny, well-played What's not to like in this movie? Liam James is good as the teenager at the centre of the story and Rockwell, Carell and Collette give great support.… Expand
Jul 24, 2013Loved every second of it. Moving film that's both warm and funny and intelligently-written. If you love coming-of-age dramas, this falls in line with this year's "Kings of Summer" as one of the best of the year.
Jan 25, 2014Director debut from Oscar-winning writer-duo Nat Faxon and Jim Rash (THE DESCENDANTS 2011, 8/10), a diffident but sensitive 14-year-old boy Duncan (James) unwillingly spends the summer vacation with his mother Pam (Collette) and her new boyfriend Trent (Carell) in a beach house where he cannot fit in and is constantly under strains with the domineering Trent, coincidentally he forms a bond with Owen (Rockwell), a happy-go-lucky clerk in the local water land "Water Whizz", after clandestinely takes a part-time job there, Duncan experiences the time of his life and the dreary summer does't seem to be so unbearable.
Opens with Steve Carell drives a revamped station wagon, Collette is asleep in the passenger's seat, James sits in the way back seat facing backward, plus we foreknow a blue-chip ensemble with Rockwell, Janney, Peet, Rudolph and Robb, is it another deletable family confection like LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE (2006, 9/10)? The very first conversation between Trent and Duncan shatters this speculation, Duncan has a rough road in this summer retreat, soon it turns out his presumable step-father is not only a pathological doctrinaire, but a two-timing sleaze-bag. The discordance also arises between Duncan and Pam, a typical miscommunication between a mother and her teenage son, Pam is an escapist seeks for protection under the roof of a marriage and is willingly to blindly ignore any snags on her way, but Duncan is a disgruntled son never understand why she cannot find someone better.
The novice Liam James utterly suits the wallflower sort, his self-emancipation route pans out nicely and he balances a fine line between sympathy and ebullience.
Supporting players galore, Duncan gets closer with Susanna (Robb), the next-door girl whose mother Betty (Janney) is a vexing garrulous boozehound, the amiable attachment between Duncan and Susanna is handled with care, realistic and never go overboard. Amanda Peet is perpetually underused as the third wheel old flame and a well-tanned Steve Carell assumes the villain role with dead seriousness with Zoe Levin as his haughty daughter, a bad exemplar of the ugly facet of our young generation. Collette accomplishes the duck soup with tangible nuances as a mother stuck in a morass.
But the most enthralling and funny part of the film is certainly located in Water Whizz, Rockwell is at the top his game with almost ad lib ambidexterity of spontaneity and sincerity, it is not so often to watch him engage in an otherwise mono-layer character, he is so ready for more awards recognition. Rash and Naxon also participate in the film and generate laughters as two buffoonish co-workers.
The film comes to the end as nothing ever happened, the hurtful truth, the unpleasant kerfuffle, Duncan has found his happy place but has to move on, however the positive message spreads from the very last scene renders viewers a firm conviction, life sucks, nevertheless, we can progress, even with baby steps.… Expand
Sep 2, 2014I care very little about the similarities between the Way, Way Back and ever other coming-of-age story. I care only about the uniqueness of its presentation and that is where this film is able to stand out.
Nov 9, 2013The Way, Way Back is one of the best films of the year. The strength of the film is making you feel for the main character for what he is going through. It mixes comedy and emotion perfectly and gives an ending that simply is remarkable.
Dec 9, 2013Movies like this are hardly ever enlightening, but that doesn't make a difference because it is a great movie. It is a difficult to balance both comedy and drama successfully, but the film makers delivered well. Wonderful vivid supporting characters.
Jun 9, 2014I can't believe this movie isn't popular with the teens. I loved how this movie, while is a teenage movie, also appeal to the adults without being chessy. In fact, this isn't a romantic movie at all. This is a movie about enjoying things you never thought you would enjoy. I relate to the main character Duncan. I don't blame him for being such a smug because the people around him are a bunch of scum anyway.
I didn't expect A-list cast in this movie. It's great seeing them collaborating in this movie because they did such a wonderful job portraying their roles. The direction was great too.
The themes in the movie did a good job without romanticizing it. I guess that's why it's not popular with the teens because we teenagers are hopeless romantics.
Lastly, the script was brilliant. You need a good script to make a good movie. And I am so relived to know the same scriptwriters directed the movie.
Overall, while it's something I would not watch again for a long time, I would recommend everyone to watch this movie if they want to be happy for just two hours.… Expand
Jul 13, 2013Sweet movie but fairly simple plot. Seems like it takes place in a few days. As a coming-of-age-working-at -an-amusement-park flick, Adventureland was better.
Nov 11, 2013Sam Rockwell absolutely shines in this hard-trying-to-be-indie movie. Much of the cast, including the gormless, charmless, expressionless 14 year old lead, struggles hard to be likeable. Steve Carrel, for the first time is the dick. And he isn't convincing. Just kind of ruins him for me. But Rockwell and his quirky, larger-than-life character does stand out from the cardboard characters and rescues an otherwise dull movie. His friendship and the way he fathers shy insecure Duncan is the genuinely heartwarming core to this movie. And it outshines the other storylines.… Expand

Jul 29, 2013I love The Way, Way Back. It's the first 10/10 I'm awarding all year and for a good reason. All around the board spectacular performances, Sam Rockwell particularly shines. I loved it.
Apr 14, 2014Very nice little film. Good script with a heart and great character development. The whole cast does a great job but Allison Janney and Toni Collette are especially good in this. Both are actresses with a lot of experience and it shows. They are great. The main character (the teen boy) does a great job too. It is a movie with a little bit of comedy but also some really touching moments, especially towards the end and the mother´s situation. I recommend it without a doubt.… Expand
Aug 30, 2013My new favorite film of the year. This film's got everything strong writing, strong directing, and strong acting. The best part of this film by far is Sam Rockwell he is pin point perfect, just down right hilarious. Similar to one of my favorite films of 2012 The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Way Way Back is even better. A+
Sep 27, 2013This review contains spoilers. As a teenage boy myself, this film hit all the right notes for me. The cast was brilliant, and did an incredible job. Sam Rockwell especially shined as the kind of cool adult us teens look up to, who isn't as level headed as he seems. Steve Carrell was a convincing scum bag, and the scene near the end where Carrell and Rockwell meet almost broke my heart with the beautiful way Rockwell defended poor Duncan. The story was hilarious, but never unrealistic. It had its comedy gold moments, and it's bluntly truthful moments. Overall, this film had one of the strongest scripts of the summer, and it's certainly one of my favorite films of the year.… Collapse
Jul 27, 2013Sweet, satisfying...and my favorite film so far this year. Liam James stars as 14-year old Duncan, who's dragged by his mother (Toni Collette) and new beau (Steve Carell) to the beach to spend the summer. Allison Janney is hysterical as the next door neighbor and Sam Rockwell is the mentor I wish I had growing up This coming-of-age film was smart, funny and really hit home for me personally. The last 20 minutes were a misty blur. I will definitely see this film again.… Expand
Jul 21, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Underwhelming. Allison Janney is great, as is Sam Rockwell, but I felt The Way, Way Back lacked a satisfying ending. Perhaps the filmmakers wanted to avoid a crowd-pleasing finale, but the movie is already chock-full of cliché moments. And at times it felt I was watching two different movies one exploring the trials of divorce, and the pain of infidelity, and then another filled with teenage angst and a stereotypical coming-of-age-summer.… Expand
Nov 7, 2013I really enjoyed this coming-of-age story. While the story of an awkward teenager coming out of his shell thanks to the wisdom of a glorified goofball/slacker is nothing really new, writers/directors Nat Faxon and Jim Rash made the film feel fresh and unique. The funny parts are really funny and the drama is blended perfectly to give the film a very human approach. Add in great performances from Liam James, Steve Carell, Toni Collette and, most importantly, Sam Rockwell and you have the makings of a very endearing, very amusing movie.… Expand
Aug 20, 2013Disappointing. Sam Rockwell and Janney characters were over the top. Didn't care about any of the characters.------------------------------------------------------
Nov 22, 2014This movie is pretty damn good, though it certainly is not for everyone, it's a fun coming of age story.
Duncan is a good protagonist as a kid who you really feel bad for in the beginning. Though that's all great there are a FEW downsides, and the first of which was some of the characters. Now, don't get me wrong, most of the characters in this movie are fairly likable (or hateable), but there were some that were not very interesting. The second of which was the humor, while most of the jokes made for a good laugh, some were... not very funny.
Overall 8 out of 10, even with these flaws, this movies is NOT bad!
Also, the title of this movie comes from the name of the seat the main character sits in, in the very beginning.… Expand
Apr 24, 2014The Way Way Back is a wonderfully crafted coming of age story with two great teen actors and a showboat-y performance from Rockwell. While he is in all his waterpark gear and flirting with the e employees, we almost forget that he played a crazy prisoner in "The Green Mile". Toni Collette and Steve Carrell make up a talented supporting cast. The direction, editing, cinematography, and script are all on par to make for a very enjoyable film.… Expand
Nov 8, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "The Way Way Back" is a stunning film that focuses on telling the plot through subtle comments and camera angles.
A 14-year old boy named Duncan ,who has social issues after his father leaves his mother and him, goes on a family trip with his mom's new boyfriend (played by Steve Carell, who does such a good job you actually hate him) to his beach house.
Along the way, Duncan makes new friends, gets a job at a water park, along with discovering some scandals going on in the background.
This movie is a must-watch and the best drama movie of the year. Although it may seem sulky and boring at times if you don't get the "subtle plot expansion" at first, but watching once or twice will make it worth it.… Expand
Dec 28, 2013Every performance in the film is perfect, particularly Sam Rockwell's hilarious turn as the water park manager. Rockwell is reason enough to see the film, and shouldn't be forgotten come awards time.
Feb 17, 2014Nice movie,performance is very good.Nice and enjoyable movie,perfect line between comedy and a sad reflection but still not a movie too good for some awards,at the point of comedy the jokes are very clever.Its definitly worth watching.
Feb 15, 2014very nice movie.. really refreshing.. the whole cast did their roles very well. and really touching and beautiful climax. really we do things to protect ourselves because we are scared.
Sep 7, 2014One of the best movies i have ever seen. it was a movie which had a mixture of comedy, romance and adventure which really brought out the best of the movie. It really touches your heart and shows you how a shy boy like "Duncan" becomes someone who is confident about himself through the help of his friends.
This also marks what may be Allison Janney's funniest performance to date: her cheerful, outspoken drunk next door is an absolute hoot.
A film for every age, whether you're an awkward kid, former awkward kid or awkward kid-adjacent. Funny, real and uplifting. A film that reaffirms your belief in the human spirit.
If the Collette/Carell reunion suggests Little Miss Sunshine, it's not quite that crowd-pleasing. But, crafted with much TLC and sympathy, it's perfectly tailored to the tongue-tied teen in us all.

Reader asks:
"We are about to move into a house with a large open fire place with a full width brick chimney. We are considering mounting our 42" LCD TV above the timber mantel but we are concerned about the effects of the heat from the chimney on the TV. Is it advisable to secure a heat- resistant material between the surface of the chimney and the TV?"
EH says:
It's extremely popular to mount a TV above a fireplace, but there are several reasons not to, and heat is only one of them.
First, the TV will be unnaturally high, which will force you to stain your neck for hours at a time to watch it. Ideally, a TV should be placed as close to eye level (when seated) as possible, but most fireplace designs would force the TV to be two to three feet higher than that.
If you plan to use the fireplace and the TV at the same time, then you'll have two bright centers of attention for your eyes to focus on. Again, that will create eye and neck strain as your focus shifts from the bright TV to the bright fire.
As far as heat, most fireplaces are pretty inefficient and don't actually produce a lot of heat. The heat goes up the chimney, and may warm up the wall. First check the heat tolerance of your TV in the product's manual (or call the manufacturer if you don't have the manual). Then light a fire and measure the heat of the wall (a stick-on aquarium thermometer might work) you want to hang it on, and the air right in front of it. If the wall is a little too warm, a tilting mount that holds the TV an inch or so out from the wall will probably help. There are probably also some heat resistant materials you can place on the wall—our installer readers may offer further advice on that.
You'll also need to consider the wiring and components, which will require some more drilling and cutting and possibly a control system to operate them properly. Make sure there's room around the chimney to safely run all those wires.
Finally, the mantel is there to show off stuff—your family photo, a cool old clock, some sculpture you picked up on an island vacation. If you put the TV there, then where do you put that stuff?
If any of this seems out of your skill level, consult a professional. Here's a link where you can find one.

The Rich Girl's Money Rules to Live By
Want to earn more? Spend smarter? Live a glamorous life? Take charge of your money with our financial cheat sheet.
By Sophie Moura
Photo Credit: Bill Diodato
Forget old-fashioned scrimping and saving. We asked top experts and polled a clique of super-successful women for their advice on how to make the most of what you've got and earn even more. Check out the newest tricks to get wealthier (or at least get on your way...
Follow these basic guidelines and you'll never worry about money again:
ASSESS WHAT YOU'VE GOT. Know where your money goes each month and you'll feel instantly on top of things. The quickest way to do it? Sign up for a free site like mint.com. You'll enter information for each credit card, bank account, retirement plan, loan, and investment; your account updates with every transaction to give you the latest picture of your finances in a colorful, easy-to-read format.
MAKE A BUDGET. Throw out that calculator. All you need now for a simple budget is your iPhone and one of the scores of low-cost apps that will keep you in the smart-spending zone. Try Spend ($.99), which displays what you can blow for the day, week, or month; Expenditure ($1.99), which has a currency converter for vacation money management; or iXpenseIt ($4.99), which lets you store receipts digitally and even alerts you to upcoming bills before they're due.
MAXIMIZE YOUR PAYCHECK. Take pretax dollars from your salary to ensure you have funds for things you need. A flexible spending account (FSA) lets you pay for health expenses like contact lenses or acupuncture (a woman making $50,000 a year who puts $2,500 in her FSA could get a tax savings of $625); a transportation-benefit account earmarks several hundred bucks a month for commuting; a 401(k) invests a portion of your salary for retirement.
DITCH CREDIT-CARD DEBT. If you carry a balance $10,000 or even $1,000 paying it off is a priority, says Alexa Von Tobel, founder of learnvest.com, a personal-finance site for women. Many cards have six-month introductory rates of zero percent, which later reset higher. Transfer your balance to one of those, and for half a year pay it down with every penny (skipping retirement savings). Close the card once your debt is paid. "Emotionally, you'll fee so much better."
STAY ON TOP OF YOUR BILLS. Create an e-mail account like email@example.com for electronic bill-delivery. Set up calendar alerts for each vendor three days before payment is due so you can read the statement and fix mistakes, like inflated restaurant tips. (Von Tobel says they're not uncommon.) Forget automatic transfers "bills have errors!" says von Tobel. "You need to check them."

The New Money Rules You know how not everything your parents told you is true? That goes for money, too! Experts toss the old rules and share how to get ahead now
THEN: Invest in real estate
NOW: Rent, rent, rent!
"The American dream is changing: People have lost so much money buying homes. The new key is job stability and a solid savings account, not property investment."
Farnoosh Torabi, money coach and contributor to Yahoo Finance and MoneyWatch
THEN: Go to graduate school
NOW: Take an adult-education course
"We all used to just assume we'd pay for grad school later. But tuition has sky-rocketed; the debt follows you forever. Try a professional development class instead."
Catey Hill, author of SHOO, Jimmy Choo! The Modern Girl's Guide to Spending Less and Saving More
THEN: Date or marry up
NOW: Be your own breadwinner
"A man is not a financial plan. So many women's husbands and boyfriends have been laid off. It's more important than ever that we take charge of our own finances."
Manisha Thakor, coauthor of Get Financially Naked: How to Talk Money With Your Honey
The Biggest Money Mistake You Can Make
"Paying too much in rent! There's no quicker way to erode your financial foundation than moving to a new city after college and splurging on a place you can't afford. The rule of thumb: No more than 30 percent of your post-tax salary should go to rent or mortgage. So get roommates or commute farther to work, but don't start your financial life out of balance."
