What a weekend! Our girlsSubmitted by Momma3 (not verified) on Thu, 07/16/2009 - 9:39am.
What a weekend! Our girls played with all of their hearts. The Burgaw Darlings had a fantastic run this All-Star season. The coaches, parents and many other fans were in awe of these girls. Last night's games were some of the most exciting. I have never been more proud. Now we all can focus on the Angels and a winning run at Sumter!

Lotus: Reliability is last missing piece
By Edd Straw and Matt Beer | Monday, April 11th 2011, 12:54 GMT |
Mike Gascoyne believes his Lotus team now only needs slightly better reliability to get fully on terms with the established midfield squads after a heartening Malaysian Grand Prix.
Lotus has set a target of getting among the midfield pack and scoring regular points this year, but it began its 2011 season back in its 2010 position between the more experienced teams and Virgin.
Yesterday's Sepang race saw an upturn for Lotus, though, with Heikki Kovalainen coming home right behind the Toro Rossos in 15th.
"It's by far our strongest performance," Gascoyne told AUTOSPORT. "Also we made a bit of a step forward with reliability this weekend.
"The drivers really felt that if we get more time in the car over the weekend, we can make up the gap now which is only a few tenths. If we had got [Jaime] Alguersuari at the end there it would have been the first time that we had beaten someone on pace [other than the other new teams].
"We were only lapped by six cars, we were competitive with the midfield and really at the end when we were being lapped, we were struggling to slow down enough to let the cars go past! It's a real step forward for this team."
Gascoyne hopes the Sepang performance will proves Lotus's detractors wrong after it had failed to achieve its goals in Australia.
"We kept saying that we had to make that step into the midfield, we felt that we had in testing and we didn't go well in Melbourne and I think a lot of people were a bit sceptical and hopefully we have shown what we can do," he said.

Hussle Club
Hussle Club has hit the streets, do you know where your children are?
"NYC's Prince Terrence is the leader, creator and mastermind of this dark musical phenomenon. After touring the world over as drummer for acts like Santigold, Spank Rock, Hearts Revolution, and Major Lazer, he is now giving life to a project all his own." -RCRD LBL
"The eerie musical styling of Hussle Club's dark punk and no wave songs are undefinable and fresh. They perfectly echo the streets and the trials and tribulations of the present generation. Born in the projects of Detroit, raised in Louisville, Kentucky where he worked for a punk label, Prince Terrence has made his way to the top in all aspects. The pinnacle being, surviving in New York City by simply doing what he does best, playing music. He has seen all aspects of music from the bottom to the top and has a story to tell. Playing every single instrument himself on Hussle Club recordings, he is creating a lifelong soundtrack." -Culture Of Me
In his own words "Hussle Club is for everyone on this same path, people that devote their lives and make sacrifices in order to live life as they wish and use their talent to defy the 'system' by living a life that is non-conventional and coming out on top. It's for the artists, the painters, the dj's, the musicians, the rappers, the pushers, the graffiti writers, etc. Hussle Club is for everyone and I'm just supplying the soundtrack."
French Horn Rebellion (DJ SET)
Brooklyn-based electro-rock duo French Horn Rebellion feature the talents of brothers David and Robert Perlick-Molinari. With a name inspired by the combination of David's skills as a computer sound engineer and Robert having once been the first chair French horn player in the Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra, French Horn Rebellion make '80s-influenced electronic pop with an often wry, campy sense of humor. Born and raised in Milwaukee, David and Robert eventually relocated to Brooklyn where David produced and engineered music for the similarly inclined outfit MGMT. In 2007, French Horn Rebellion released a self-titled independent album. In 2011, the duo released The Infinite Music of French Horn Rebellion on Once Upon a Time/V2 Records.

Making S'mores
For a lot of campers, a trip to the outdoors just isn't complete without s'mores. They are an American camping tradition, going back at least to 1927, when they appeared in the Girl Scout Handbook. S'mores are deserts made with marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers. Although easy to make, put several campers around a campfire and you're bound to get a debate about how to make the best s'more.
Generally everyone can agree on the basics. Find a good stick and put a marshmallow or two on the end. Then hold the marshmallow over the fire. When it's ready, place the marshmallow and chocolate between two graham crackers to make a sandwich. That's what we can all agree on. Then there are personal choices and advanced options.
There is a major debate in s'more cooking about whether the marshmallow should be cooked over a flame or coals. Flame people are often impulsive, restless folks who want their s'more as soon as possible. Some even like to burn the marshmallow. Coal folk tend to be patient cooks that go for a nice even brown. They are also the ones who will give away a marshmallow that hasn't been perfectly roasted.
Advanced s'more makers will tell you that you need to leave the chocolate on the graham cracker near the fire so that it will melt. This is not a bad idea. But you will find your own personal techniques soon enough. Enjoy!

SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/30/13 -- Today Nimble Storage, the leading provider of flash-optimized hybrid storage solutions, announced it has surpassed the 1,000-customer mark. The company has reached this milestone in less than two-and-a-half years of selling its products, due to the tremendous demand for its flash-optimized storage arrays. Nimble Storage products integrate the high performance of flash with the economics of high-capacity hard disk drives -- making them ideal for storing and protecting data for critical applications such as Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, server virtualization and VDI. Nimble Storage's scale-to fit technology provides complete flexibility for independently scaling capacity and performance at the lowest possible cost. Customers consistently see performance enhanced by up to a factor of ten, while Nimble Storage's Proactive Wellness support capabilities provide increased storage uptime and keep arrays running at peak performance and efficiency.
Highlights, Key Facts, and Quotes:
Nimble Storage's technology is best known for its performance enhancements, overall efficiency gains and Proactive Wellness management tools. The company's success has been fueled by interest from companies in all industries that have realized the opportunity for significant savings driven by reductions in total cost of ownership from deploying Nimble Storage solutions. Customer growth is consistent across all major vertical industries, including government, education, financial services, legal and healthcare.
"Eighty-plus percent of our competition consists of legacy vendors, and even against their most modern architectures, we are winning deals at an amazing clip," said Suresh Vasudevan, CEO of Nimble Storage. "Our customers are adopting our solution because we can leverage the best of flash performance and the price/capacity of high-capacity hard disk drives, while at the same time provide unmatched data management functionality. This latest customer milestone proves it's a winning combination."
Nimble Storage's expansion into international markets has also contributed to this strong customer momentum. Citipointe Christian College, located in Brisbane, Australia, became Nimble Storage's 1,000th customer as a direct result of this global expansion.
"We believe that Nimble Storage has done for us what no other storage vendor could achieve -- higher performance at a reasonable price coupled with ease-of-use that is second to none," said Ben Davis, director of ICT, Citipointe Christian College Brisbane.
A strong contributor to the company's success in acquiring new customers is its loyalty to the channel. Nimble Storage has driven more than 95 percent of its revenue through the channel and finds that once partners sell their first system they quickly introduce Nimble to their other customers. Due to the attractiveness of the Nimble Storage Partner Program and the ease of selling its solutions, Nimble Storage has increased its partner base to more than 350 partners worldwide.
"Nimble's CS-Series arrays are unique in combining high-performance flash and high-capacity hard disk drives, creating an extremely cost-effective solution that meets the requirements for a customer base with a vast range of workloads and networking environments. The Nimble Partner Program affords customers this solution with industry-leading reliability and a highly competitive storage platform for resellers -- all in all an unbeatable combination," said Dave Kluger, principal technology architect, Storcom.
Nimble Storage has changed the game in the data storage industry by developing an integrated flash-optimized storage architecture designed to expressly leverage the best of flash performance and the price/capacity of high-capacity hard disk drives. Today's storage architectures limit scalability to either performance or capacity; Nimble's scale-to-fit technology, built on the groundbreaking Cache Accelerated Sequential Layout (CASL) architecture, addresses these limitations by allowing customers to purchase exactly what they need up front and by providing the industry's most flexible scaling options. Customers can protect their existing investments while growing their storage at the lowest incremental cost, without downtime, as their needs evolve.

TURIN, N.Y. (AP) — Mourners streamed into the upstate New York high school where funeral services are being held for Kevin Ward Jr., the dirt-track racer killed by NASCAR champion Tony Stewart during a race last weekend.
Ward's casket, decorated with orange and white flowers, was carried into South Lewis Senior High School about an hour before services were to begin. Ward, a 2012 graduate, lived in nearby Port Leyden.
His family followed the casket, some of them dressed in black and orange, the 20-year-old Ward's racing colors. Dozens of mourners began arriving soon afterward.
Ward was killed Saturday night at a track 140 miles away in Canandaigua, where Stewart was racing a day before the Sprint Cup event at Watkins Glen.

In fact, mixed simple repeat (gt)n(ga)m sequences are present in major histocompatibility complex MHC-DRB genes for long evolutionary times, including such distant animals as artiodactyla and man.

[more ▼] The gelatinase A (72 kDa type IV collagenase) is a matrix metallo-proteinase which degrades basement membrane collagens. Various studies emphasize its role in stromal invasion of cancers, but there is some controversy about its origin. Gelatinase A was localized by immunohistochemistry using confocal microscopy in 15 human mammary carcinomas. In addition, the cells responsible for the synthesis of this enzyme were detected by in situ hybridization. Most invasive and non-invasive tumour cells were labelled by immunohistochemistry. Of particular interest was the pattern observed in some pre-invasive areas. Gelatinase A was found in fibroblasts in close contact with pre-invasive tumour clusters. Confocal observation allowed a more precise localization of gelatinase A to the periphery of tumour clusters along the basement membranes and in peritumour fibroblasts. The malignant epithelial cells were negative by immunohistochemistry in these areas. By in situ hybridization, mRNAs encoding gelatinase A were detected only in fibroblasts in close contact with pre-invasive and well differentiated tumour clusters. These findings support the hypothesis that peritumour fibroblasts produce gelatinase A and that breast cancer cells may bind this enzyme to their cell surface and/or internalize it.

[more ▼] Hsp90 is a protein chaperone regulating the stability and activity of many signalling molecules. The requirement of Hsp90 activity in the NF-κB pathway has been recently reported by several authors using the Hsp90 ATPase inhibitor Geldanamycin (GA), an anti-tumour drug. Hsp90 inhibition blocks the synthesis and activation of the IKK complex, the major kinases complex responsible for IκBα phosphorylation on serine 32 and 36, a key step for its degradation and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB. However, the effect of GA on other IκBα kinases, including tyrosine kinases, is unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effect of GA on NF-κB activation induced by sodium pervanadate (PV), a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor triggering c-Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of IκBα. We reporte for the first time that GA inhibits PV-induced IκBα tyrosine phosphorylation and degradation. Using an in vitro kinase assay, we demonstrated that GA inhibits the activity of c-Src as an IκBα tyrosine kinase, but not its cellular expression. As a result, GA blocked PV-induced NF-κB DNA binding activity on an exogenous κB element and on the endogenous iκbα promoter, thereby inhibiting IκBα transcription. Finally, we demonstrated that, despite NF-κB inhibition, pre-treatment with GA does not potentiate PV-induced apoptosis. We conclude that c-Src requires Hsp90 for its tyrosine kinase activity, and its inhibition by GA blocks c-Src-dependent signalling pathways, such as NF-κB activation induced by sodium pervanadate. The effect of GA on PV-induced apoptosis is discussed in the light of recent publications in the literature.

[more ▼] Die Auseinandersetzung um die Existenz-Bedingungen und die territoriale Ausdehnung des Staates Israel steht seit Jahrzehnten im Zentrum des Nahost-Konflikts. Grundlegend für die Landfrage ist die Tradition von "Erez Israel", dem "Land Israel" als gottbestimmter, legitimierter Heimat der Juden. Auf diese für Religion, Geschichte und Kultur des Judentums zentrale Tradition beruft sich auch der heutige jüdische Staat. Er versteht sich als Erfüllung des Traums von der "Erlösung Israels". Die Proklamationsurkunde von 1948 erklärt das "natürliche und historische Recht des jüdischen Volkes", den jüdischen Staat "auf den Boden des Heimatlandes" zu gründen: in Palästina. Textzeugnisse unterschiedlicher Herkunft und Gattung aus der Zeit zwischen 600 v. Chr. bis 2000 n. Chr. dokumentieren die Idee von verheißenem Land und die Kopplung von Religion und Land in Tradition von "Erez Israel". Kommentare und Erläuterungen von Wissenschaftlern verschiedener Disziplinen liefern Hintergrundinformationen und einen historischen Überblick.

[more ▼] BACKGROUND: Measurement of locomotor activity is a valuable tool for analysing factors influencing behaviour and for investigating brain function. Several methods have been described in the literature for measuring the amount of animal movement but most are flawed or expensive. Here, we describe an open source, modular, low-cost, user-friendly, highly sensitive, non-invasive system that records all the movements of a rat in its cage. METHODS: Our activity monitoring system quantifies overall free movements of rodents without any markers, using a commercially available CCTV and a newly designed motion detection software developed on a GNU/Linux-operating computer. The operating principle is that the amount of overall movement of an object can be expressed by the difference in total area occupied by the object in two consecutive picture frames. The application is based on software modules that allow the system to be used in a high-throughput workflow. Documentation, example files, source code and binary files can be freely downloaded from the project website at http://bioinformatics.org/gemvid/. RESULTS: In a series of experiments with objects of pre-defined oscillation frequencies and movements, we documented the sensitivity, reproducibility and stability of our system. We also compared data obtained with our system and data obtained with an Actiwatch device. Finally, to validate the system, results obtained from the automated observation of 6 rats during 7 days in a regular light cycle are presented and are accompanied by a stability test. The validity of this system is further demonstrated through the observation of 2 rats in constant dark conditions that displayed the expected free running of their circadian rhythm. CONCLUSION: The present study describes a system that relies on video frame differences to automatically quantify overall free movements of a rodent without any markers. It allows the monitoring of rats in their own environment for an extended period of time. By using a low-cost, open source hardware/software solution, laboratories can greatly simplify their data acquisition and analysis pipelines and improve their workload.

[more ▼] BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies suggest that initiation of alcohol drinking at an early age is associated with an increased risk of developing an alcohol use disorder later in life. Nevertheless, relatively few studies using animal models have investigated the relationship between age of onset of drinking and ethanol drinking patterns in adulthood. Besides age at drinking onset, other factors such as gender could also affect the pattern of development of alcohol consumption. In rodents, many studies have shown that females drink more than males. However, even if it is assumed that hormonal changes occurring at puberty could explain these differences, only one study performed in rats has investigated the emergence of sex-specific alcohol drinking patterns in adolescence and the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The aim of the present study was to compare the acquisition of voluntary alcohol consumption, relapse-like drinking (the Alcohol Deprivation Effect-ADE) and stress-induced alcohol drinking in male and female outbred mice that acquired alcohol consumption during adolescence or adulthood. METHODS: Separate groups of naive female and male WSC-1 mice aged +/- 28 days (adolescents) or +/-70 days (adults) were given ad libitum access to water and 6% ethanol solution for 8 weeks (1st to 8th week) before undergoing a 2-week deprivation phase (9th and 10th week). After the deprivation period, 2-bottle preference testing (ethanol vs. water) resumed for 3 weeks (11th to 13th). During the 13th week, all animals were subjected to restraint stress for 2 consecutive days. RESULTS: Over the entire time course of the experiment, ethanol intake and preference increased in females (both adults and adolescents). Adolescent animals (both females and males) showed a transient increase in alcohol consumption and preference compared to adults. However, by the end of continuous alcohol exposure (when all mice were adults), ethanol intake was not affected by age at drinking onset. A deprivation phase was followed by a rise in ethanol intake (ADE) that was not affected by sex or age. Finally, stress did not alter alcohol self-administration either during or after its occurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Emergence of greater alcohol consumption in adult females does not seem to be limited to a specific developmental period (i.e., puberty). Age of voluntary drinking onset (adolescence vs. adulthood) does not affect eventual alcohol intake in adult WSC-1 mice and does not modify the transient increase in ethanol consumption after alcohol deprivation.

Shopkeepers issuing cash memos and bills carrying a footnote that 'goods once sold will not be taken back' could face penal action. Controller of Legal Metrology Department and Commissioner of Commercial Taxes are empowered to conduct periodic inspections at sales outlets to ensure that the said stipulation is not carried in bills.
The Kerala State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has issued an order on June 29 to this effect. The Commission was dismissing an appeal against a verdict of the Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Ernakulam.
The CDRF, Ernakulam, had given the verdict on October 31, 2012, in a complaint filed by two persons, M.N.Manoharan and Sebastian Abraham, against officer in-charge of Cochin Duty Free Shop, and Controller of Legal Metrology. The complaint pertained to a bill with the said footnote received by Mr. Manoharan on the purchase of food item from the shop on July 3, 2011.
The district consumer court observed that the stipulation violated the Consumer Protection Act. According to the Act, any aggrieved consumer has the right to get relief against defective goods, deficiency in service, overpricing, including unfair and restrictive trade practices followed by traders, manufacturers and service providers.
The consumer court also noted that the Government Order dated November 3, 2007, said the unilateral condition that 'goods once sold will not be taken back / exchanged' was against Section 14 of Consumer Protection Act, 1986.
The authority of Legal Metrology Department to conduct inspections had also been mentioned in the GO. The State Commission upheld the CDRF verdict.

Game 25 Preview: OKC Thunder at Sacramento Kings
Game time: 7:30 p.m. PDT
Where: Sleep Train Arena, Sacramento, CA.
Broadcast Information: KHTK Sports 1140 (Radio), Comcast SportsNet California (Local Television), ESPN
Sacramento Kings Probable Starters (11-13)

Oklahoma City Thunder Probable Starters (11-13)
PG: Russell Westbrook
SG: Andre Roberson
SF: Kevin Durant
PF: Serge Ibaka
C: Steven Adams
Three things to ponder
1. The hangover
The Kings fired head coach Michael Malone on Sunday night, which blindsided many, including his players. Sacramento's roster was vocally supportive of Malone, so their reaction to the situation may be laid out live on national television.
2. The pace
A big factor why Malone was canned was due to his offensive philosophy. The Ex-King made a living out of halfcourt sets, while the front office prefers an up-tempo style. Interim head coach Tyrone Corbin is apparently willing to step on the gas, so the Kings will try to keep pace with the Thunder (ninth in pace factor last season according to Hollinger Stats).
3. Defense (if at all)
Malone preached defense as a No. 1 priority. With him out of the picture, priorities may change. In Corbin's last season as Utah Jazz head coach, his club finished dead last in opponent field goal percentage (47.3). Where the defense goes, so does Sacramento's success.

Tsunami flooding

- More information: Publisher Index Page
Panel 5 focused on tsunami flooding with an emphasis on Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Analysis (PTHA) as derived from its counterpart, Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) that determines seismic ground-motion hazards. The Panel reviewed current practices in PTHA and determined the viability of extending the analysis to extreme design probabilities (i.e., 10-4 to 10-6). In addition to earthquake sources for tsunamis, PTHA for extreme events necessitates the inclusion of tsunamis generated by submarine landslides, and treatment of the large attendant uncertainty in source characterization and recurrence rates. Tsunamis can be caused by local and distant earthquakes, landslides, volcanism, and asteroid/meteorite impacts. Coastal flooding caused by storm surges and seiches is covered in Panel 7. Tsunamis directly tied to earthquakes, the similarities with (and path forward offered by) the PSHA approach for PTHA, and especially submarine landslide tsunamis were a particular focus of Panel 5.Additional Publication Details

I am normally a pretty big fan of cooking shows but I have to say that 'Good Chef, Bad Chef' screening on Channel Ten in the afternoons has me asking lots of questions with a furrowed brow. Starring Janella Purcell (the Good Chef) and Adrian Richardson (the Bad Chef) the show is clearly sponsored by a weight loss company whose ads you will see not only during the breaks but as infomercials as well. While I know we can see such ads at any time, it's not even the sponsorship that concerns me most. It's the entire premise of saying that one chef, because of the types of food they choose to cook with and then create, makes them good, and the other because of their choices, bad. As the 'Bad Chef,' Adrian cooks in a way that is free, open and appreciative of ALL food. In other words – it's balanced. I have seen him use ingredients such as butter, oil, flour, sugar, vegetables, fruit, vine leaves, fish and a host of other things. As the 'Good Chef' Janella shuns many of the things Adrian cooks sticking with a more limited range that never involves things such as white sugar… Read the rest |

Biomet Hip Lawsuits Move Forward as Judge Designates Venues for Depositions in Federal Biomet Hip Replacement Litigation, Bernstein Liebhard LLP Reports
The Firm is actively filing Biomet hip replacement lawsuits in the federal litigation on behalf of individuals who suffered hip implant failure, metallosis and other complications allegedly due to the Biomet M2a Magnum hip implant.
New York, New York (PRWEB) June 13, 2013
Biomet hip lawsuit claims pending in a federal multidistrict litigation now underway in U.S. District Court, Northern District of Indiana, continue to move forward, Bernstein Liebhard LLP reports. According to an Order issued by the Court on May 5, 2013, the judge overseeing the federal Biomet hip replacement litigation has directed that depositions of Biomet employees take place in either South Bend or Fort Wayne, Indiana. According to the Order, both of these locations are significantly closer to Biomet´s Warsaw headquarters than any other venue considered by the Court. (In re: Biomet M2a Magnum Hip Implant Products Liability Litigation — MDL No. 2391)
"We are pleased to see continued progress in the Biomet hip replacement litigation. Our Firm continues to hear from Biomet M2a hip recipients who have allegedly suffered serious complications and injuries due to metal debris shed from this device," says Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationwide law firm representing the victims of defective drugs and medical devices. The Firm is actively filing Biomet hip lawsuits in the federal litigation, and continues to offer free legal evaluations to individuals allegedly injured by the Biomet M2a hip.
Biomet Hip Replacement Lawsuits
All of the Biomet hip lawsuits pending in Indiana federal court allege the metal-on-metal design of the Biomet M2a Magnum can generate high levels of metal ions, leading to metallosis in the surrounding tissue and early failure of the device. According to court documents, the next Case Management Conference in the Biomet hip replacement litigation has been scheduled for June 17, 2013.
The Biomet M2a Magnum and other metal-on-metal hip implants are currently the subject of a U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) safety review. In January 2013, the agency warned that metal debris shed from such devices could accumulate at dangerous levels in the tissue surrounding the hip implant, as well as the blood stream. According to the FDA, this could lead to pain, swelling, metallosis, premature failure of the hip, and possibly even systemic reactions in other parts of the body. The FDA has advised that patients with all-metal hips undergo blood testing for elevated metal ion levels if they show signs of a failing hip implant. The FDA has also proposed a new rule which would preclude metal-on-metal hips from the agency´s 510 (k) clearance process, which allowed devices like the Biomet M2a Magnum to come to market without first undergoing human clinical trials.*
Alleged victims of metal-on-metal hip implant failure associated with the Biomet M2a hip may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A wealth of information about Biomet hip lawsuits is available at Bernstein Liebhard´s website. For additional information, please contact one of our attorneys today by calling 800-511-5092.

D'oh, even the camera controls are horribly overly complicated and literally inhuman (who would design 4 types of camera control layouts each consisting of a dozen equally inconvenient options?). It's like every window there is wrapped in barbwire. I've never succeeded to create anything worthy in this environment.
I'm not blaming Autodesk or other developers, the look of their software is a result of an evolution that lasted for a decade and can be called somewhat traditional. The professionals just deal with it, and no matter how inconvenient or overly complicated the software is, they eventually master it just because it is considered an industrial standard.

18 Tips to Help you Save Money
Well, you have reconsidered your frivolous ways and are now looking for ways to keep more of the money that you worked so hard for. This is a very positive step, one that all of us should consider, sooner rather than later. However, for those who now want to be more money conscious might need some pointers as to how to get started or what to do.
Below find 17 tips that can help you begin saving more and spending less. None of them are hard, the hardest part will be breaking many of the frivolous habits that have been developed over a long period of time; but with some diligence and dedication, the amount of money in your savings accounts should start growing; and that will simply reinforce your behavior – thus making you want to save more.
1. Go cash and carry. Instead of charging every little thing to your credit cards or debit cards, start using cash for your daily spending such as eating out, getting gas, groceries or whatever other things. Using cash will make you spend less money, because you can see the money actually leaving your hand, and with every purchase you can see your supply dwindle. This is unlike credit cards, debit cards and even checks, where you never actually see the money exiting from your account. Cash essentially forces a budgeting mentality upon you.
2. Add smaller weekly savings transfers. Many have already started doing transfers to their savings account with every pay period, and that is a very good thing to do. However you could speed up you savings even more if you do smaller weekly transfers as well. It doesn't have to be anything huge that will break your budget, perhaps $20 per week; it's a relatively small transfer that you would barely notice, and you will save about $1,000 extra a year, on top of your larger savings transfers that you make when you get paid. Granted if you get paid weekly, then this may not work for you too well; though you could simply up your transfer by 10 or 20 dollars.
3. Home is where the savings is. Going out costs you money and more than likely you are spending it unnecessarily. While out, you eat at restaurants, go shopping, see a movie, and probably stop at the gas station for snacks. All of that money you just spent on things that you don't really need could have been saved. Instead of blowing money on frivolous things why not just stay home, and find free or significantly cheaper entertainment; plus it is also a great way to bond with your loved ones.
4. Don't get catalogs. Or emailed sales from companies trying to sell you stuff. These announcements of sales or for cool new products make it very tempting for you to buy something you don't need. Instead, stop the catalogs and emails from ever getting to you in the first place, by contacting the companies and you will find that you spend less.
5. Put your impulses on probation. If you have an impulse to buy something you don't absolutely need, put it on 30 day probation. Create a list of things that aren't necessities that you want to buy; and you forbid yourself from buying them for 30 days. All that you buy during that time are necessities. If it isn't a necessity then you write it on the list, with the date that you added it. After the 30 days are up, you can buy it; odds are though, your urge to buy it will be gone, meaning you just saved yourself from wasting money.
6. Cook at home. Yes, eating out is so much easier, particularly after working all day; but cooking isn't really that hard. There are many recipes out there that are quick, easy, and tasty; such as a quick stir-fry, or how about make a home-made pizza with a ready-made crust, and your favorite toppings. You can put some spices on some meat and throw it in the oven, while you cook some rice and veggies. You will find that not only is cooking much cheaper than eating out, but it's healthier too; and after a while you might just come to enjoy cooking too.
7. Exercise. This doesn't mean that you have to join a costly gym, there is plenty of inexpensive exercise DVD's out there; or you could simply take a vigorous walk every day. Even yard can get the heart pumping. A little exercise can help you avoid expensive medical bills later.
8. Begin using envelopes. This is a similar idea as using cash for spending, but you use envelopes to split your cash into categories; such as groceries, gas and miscellaneous spending. When the money is gone, then you spent your allotment of that category for that time frame.
9. Share with your significant other. It is important that you and your significant other are on the same page. Share your financial goals, and from there you should agree on a general spending plan that won't have either of you wanting to choke the other. Ensure that you both know what bills have been paid and when; as well as what your balances are. A simple 20 minute discussion at the start or end of each month should be enough to cover these things.
10. Use spreadsheets. Sure there are programs out there that can help you manage your finances, but they are not cheap, and they can do amazing things with your financial information. You can even find free ones, on your desktop or online, that can do all kinds of things too. Often times we don't always need all those bells and whistles; all we really need is a way to track our money easily, without all the other fancy stuff, and a way to access that information online from anywhere. Well, have no fear our friends at Google have what we are looking for with their Google Docs and Spreadsheets. You can create a simple spreadsheet to track your bank accounts that does everything that some of the costly programs do, and it is simple and free.
11. Pay yourself first. When you sit down to pay your bills, make the first bills you pay be your savings transfer and then your debt payments. If you pay them last you'll often end up shortchanging yourself. By paying them first, you will make sure you still pay your rent or mortgage, utilities, groceries and gas; so you will then have to cut back on other spending.
12. Cut the cable. This does not mean that you quit watching TV altogether; instead you can watch DVD's that you checked out from your local library; and there are subscription services such as Netflix and Hulu, that cost substantially less that cable or satellite service, where you can stream the shows that you want to watch, when you want to watch them. There are also digital antennae that you can hook up to your fancy flat-screen that can give you the same picture quality as cable or satellite. You will find that once it is gone you won't miss it.
13. Try borrowing or lending. Give books and clothes and toys you don't need any more to your friends, family or charities. If there is something that you need, try asking if anyone you know might have it; odds are someone will just give it to you if they aren't using it anymore.
14. Haggle or Barter. These are the ways business was done for centuries, and in many instances they can still be employed. Don't be afraid to ask a sales clerk for a cheaper price, sometimes, as long as your offer is reasonable, they will reduce the price because they know a sale at a lower price is better than no sale at all. Bartering probably won't work in a store, but there are some instances where you can trade your services for the services of another.
15. Use nontraditional banks. Did you know you could set up an online savings account with nontraditional banks? You can earn a higher interest rate than most normal bank's savings accounts, and if you opt out of getting an ATM it makes it all the harder to withdraw the money; which makes it less likely that you will get money out for an impulse purchase.
16. "Teach the children well . . ." If you have kids, teaching them about money can save you some money too in the long run. If they know about the importance of saving and earning money, then they should respect the money that you earn, and that you are trying to save. If you teach them that gift-giving doesn't have to be about spending a lot of money, they won't necessarily want the expensive gifts. A little knowledge goes a long way.
17. Don't be embarrassed to use coupons. You are standing the line at the grocery store and have a decision to make....do I fiddle with a bunch of paper coupons and hold up the line or just pay and go? Using coupons can add up over time. If you are shopping online, use online coupons and promotion codes to save big or get free shipping. The savings are real.
18. Find happiness in life, not "stuff." There is a misbelief that the acquiring or things can make us happy. This isn't further from the truth. The constant pursuit of more things usually ends with us feeling less happy. This is because all of those things have to be paid for, and if they are being financed through the use high interest rate credit cards, then it doesn't take too long to find yourself in a bit of a hole of debt. Even if you are using the "cash and carry" method, all that buying of stuff is taking money away from more fruitful endeavors such as saving for retirement. This is a really long way of saying that regardless of how much money you are making or have, you should not seek happiness in materialistic things. They are cold and uncaring. Instead just be thankful for what you do have, and start saving some of that hard earned money. The more you save the richer you will feel; and you will find that you are doing just fine without any or all of those "things," that will eventually just get thrown away. Enjoy life for what it is, not what you have.
Adversity Training: Why financial setbacks should make you smarter about saving money
Just about everyone who has every scrimped, saved, spent or borrowed money in their lifetime has had a stretch where anything from their judgment to how they went about handling their finances was anything but enviable.
Perhaps you lost your job, started using credit cards or opening lines of credit to just stay afloat, so that you could pay your bills, take care of your family and not lose your home. Maybe an emergency fund was already depleted and when your roof collapsed so did what was left of your savings account. And, of course, there's always just the plain, dumb decision making that plagues the masses as it relates to spending money.
No matter how you arrived at this desolate place from a money standpoint, chances are you'll be here for a while, and you'll need help picking yourself up and dusting off what's left of your budgeting and financial self worth. You may enlist the help of a financial planner or search high and low for a consolidation company that, at least in some form, has your best interests in mind and isn't interested in hitting you with one fee after another.
As disheartening as all this sounds, you still don't have to take this setback lying down but instead should take it as an opportunity to get better at saving money and grind your way back to even, or at least close to it.
How exactly is that possible, particularly if you're really struggling with your money? First, you have to get over the spot that you're in and start assuming that you're in the midst of a financial turnaround, not a crisis. You also have to train yourself to totally pull a 180 degree turn on your lifestyle and really look hard at cutting out day to day expenses or long term bills that you simply don't need.
In addition to combing through your expenses to determine what gets cut and what doesn't, you also might have to pack a lunch so to speak and start working a little longer or, if it is that paramount, get a second job. Working needs to be a primary focus since that is how you'll earn all, or at least a majority of, your money. The sooner you come to terms with exactly where you are, the sooner you can reverse the trend of spending and improper money managing and start pulling in a much more enviable direction.
