Simple Guide On How To Manage Your Personal Finances
Do you have a good bit of debt? Are you having trouble controlling your spending habits? If you want to get your personal finances under control, you must take positive and measurable steps. You'll be able to get on top of your finances again by checking out the personal finance tips that appear below and applying them to your own situation.
Student loan debt has fewer consumer protections than other kinds of debt, so make absolutely sure that you can repay any student loan debt you accrue. You may want to go to an expensive college; however, if you have no clear career goals or majors to focus on, you could just be building debt.
All people should have a liquids savings account. It helps if this asset in your savings portfolio provides a high yield on your investment. Some of the banks are online, and they are all FDIC insured.
If you have any old laptops lying around, you can generate extra cash and supplement your income. When electronics are working, or you can repair them, they sell for better money than broken. Sometimes, you can get rewards, such as free gas, for selling broken laptops.
If you live paycheck to paycheck and coming up short more often than not, you should consider an overdraft protection plan at your bank. Although you may have to pay a little extra each month, the fee for overdrafting could be as much as $20.
Individual Retirement Account
Whenever it's feasible for you, you should be making regular contributions to your Individual Retirement Account, or IRA. This can help you build a nest egg for your financial future! Anyone interested can open an individual retirement account with a bank, brokerage firm, or credit union. This can definitely help your financial situation when you retire, but only if you make regular contributions!
If you want to be more successful with your personal finances, having a written budget is the key. Your personal budget should contain a written list of all of your monthly bills and expected expenses. Remember to include all expenses due, such as rent, lights, cars, phones and food. Be aware of every anticipated expense. Add up your anticipated monthly expenses, and make sure you don't spend more than what you have left after paying them.
Do not think you are saving money by not doing maintenance on your vehicle or home. When you properly maintain your vehicle and your home, you are preventing major problems from arising further down the line. By taking care of the things that belong to you will save more money as time passes.
Credit Score
You want to have the best credit score possible. A good score makes it easier to secure lower interest rates on credit cards and major loans, so it's in your best interest to keep your score up. Housing rentals, utility accounts and other such services can be impacted greatly by a bad credit score. You need to use your credit in the right ways to keep your score high.
Talk to friends about your financial situation. When others understand you are trying to save money or stay within your financial means, they will understand when you tell them you can not overspend. If you do not share the reason you can not buy someone a gift, or go a lot of places with them, they might take your rejection more personal. Stay close to your friends, and be open about what you are going through.
Everyone makes mistakes now and then, especially with their personal finances. You might be able to get the fee for bouncing a check waived. This courtesy is usually only extended to customers who are consistent in avoiding overdrawing their checking account, and is usually offered on a one-time basis.
If you want to have truly sound finances, avoiding debt altogether is a very good thing to do. Obviously some items will require credit to be used, such as the purchase of an automobile or a house. However, as much as possible in your daily finances, avoid credit purchases and either pay cash or go without.
If you are having difficulties paying off a credit card, you should stop charging it. Cut your extras spending off, and see if there is some other way to make payments on the card so that it does not get maxed out. Pay down the complete monthly balance before making future purchases with the card.
If you currently have a full-time job, one of the things that you can do is to get a job on the side. Try applying at a nearby restaurant, department store or other place that may be offering viable part-time employment. Getting that extra income can really add the boost you need to your finances.
Once the statute of limitations passes for certain kinds of debt, collection agencies and creditors cannot legally threaten to sue you for old debts. The statutes vary by state, usually ranging from 3-10 years. Find out when your debts will become obsolete and refuse to pay back anyone who is trying to get money for an expired debt.
One way to save money is to stop wasting it on purchasing take out meals. It is a lot more economical to cook and eat at home. You can cook a healthy, substantial meal for a family of four for around $30. A pizza and two liter soda will cost more than that nowadays.
When your finances are in bad shape, it's easy to feel lost. However, all it takes is a little work to get things back in order. Make sure to use these tips and make the best decisions possible. Before too long, you will discover your problems with money are over.

Yahoo Mail Security Flaw Exposes Passwords
A hacker working on a way to access Yahoo Mail via IMAP, recently discovered that Yahoo's desktop e-mail client is sending your password as plain text. That's bad news for those of you using the desktop client over public wifi connections, where just about anyone with the know-how can see your unencrypted traffic.
Zimbra, creators of what is now the Yahoo Mail desktop client, responded to the news by assuring users that a fix is already in the code and just needs to be pushed out. The problem however seems to be primarily on Yahoo's end, since the IMAP servers appear to refuse secure connections.
A Zimbra employee writes on the company's forum site:
This issue has been addressed from Yahoo mail server side and the patches have just been rolled out to all servers. We added related support in desktop client code and it's in the next release. Once we roll out the next release, server will phase out the old way of authentication. The new way of authentication will not send password over clear channels.
In the mean time we would suggest sticking with the web-based e-mail client when you're working on public or otherwise insecure internet connections.

Each Wednesday the Stanford men's gymnastics team will post a childhood photo of a current gymnast on their Facebook and Twitter pages asking, "Can you name this gymnast?" The identity of the gymnast will be revealed on Thursday along with a special Q-and-A, giving fans a chance to get to know the gymnasts before the 2014 season.
This week's featured gymnast is sophomore David Frankl. The Franklin Lakes, N.J., native discusses the difference between arriving on campus as a sophomore as opposed to as a freshman, personal goals for the upcoming season and his hobbies outside of the gym.
How has your the year been going so far?
My year has been fantastic. I have been enjoying my time inside the gym and out, learning a lot, and taking advantage of everything that Stanford has to offer. It will only get better when we finally reach competition season.
What were some of the differences of arriving on campus this year as a sophomore, as opposed to last year as a freshman?
I have gained a world of perspective. Among the countless differences, I no longer avoid the ice bath like the plague, I do my laundry at least twice as often and I made it to all of my exams on time.
What was the experience like last year when you made your collegiate debut on pommel horse at the Stanford Open?
I got just a taste of what can be. I look forward to utilizing my experience last year as a springboard for this year and I hope to put together some more solid performances.
What have you been working on perfecting as the season approaches?
My pommel horse dismount is a huge focus for me. I've switched from a handstand dismount to a Russian Circle dismount. Last year my biggest deduction was typically on the dismount, so I'm working hard to make it the best thing in my routine this year.
Any personal goals you've set for yourself this year?
I plan to push for a spot in the lineup on all three of my events – pommel horse, rings, and parallel bars. I think that if everyone is battling to earn a position, the team will continuously improve. On pommel horse, I want to do my job, specifically, hit a clean, solid set, week in and week out.
What are your holiday plans this year? Anything special for New Years?
I plan to catch up with good friends that I do not see nearly enough and take advantage of sleeping in my own bed.
What are some things you enjoy doing outside of the gym?
I enjoy working on personal software projects. My most recent project is a live scoring platform that we will be using to make results available to those who couldn't make it to a meet.

Fellow Bruins,
With the athletic and academic years both now complete, I wanted to be sure to thank each of you who makes up the Bruin Family for your support, not only this year, but in years past as well. Without the generosity displayed by each of you, whether it is in sacrificing your time to attend sporting events or donating to the Wooden Athletic Fund, or both, our athletic program would not be able to enjoy the success that it has in such trying economic times, continuing to win national championships and compete for others. I know I speak for each of our coaches, student-athletes and staff members when I say your efforts are greatly appreciated.
During the 2011-12 school year, we took home our nation-leading 108th NCAA Championship when the women's volleyball team stormed through the tournament thanks to an amazing run of victories culminating with a scintillating four-set defeat of Illinois in the national championship match at the Alamodome in San Antonio.
We also has several teams finish just shy of a national title, including a pair of teams that finished second nationally (men's water polo and women's tennis) and four third-place finishers (men's soccer, gymnastics, men's tennis and women's water polo). Additionally, two finished fifth nationally (men's golf, baseball), giving UCLA a total of nine teams that ended their seasons among the top five, one of the best such displays in the country.
Moreover, two teams finished eighth at their NCAA Championships - women's golf and rowing, the latter of which posted its best placement since we reinstated the program. In addition, three Bruin teams were 17th in the final NCAA standings - women's soccer, softball and men's track and field, while the women's track team ended its season just outside the top 20, in 21st place, at the national meet.
When all is said and done and the results have been tabulated, UCLA will finish in third place in the 2011-12 Learfield Sports Directors Cup standings. UCLA is one of just two schools to place among the top six in the final standings at least 17 times in the 19-year history of the Directors Cup. We have finished second seven times, most recently in 2007-08, and third six times.
In addition, our women's teams placed second in the Capital One Cup standings, while our men's teams finished third, giving UCLA the distinction of being the only school to finish in the Top 3 in both the men's and women's programs.
All in all, a very good year, but we will not rest on our laurels next year and will continue to push for the top spot in each sport during the 2012-13 school year.
There were also several individual performances that stood out throughout the year. In fact, nearly 50 of our student-athletes earned All-America honors in their sport. Meanwhile, balancing athletics and academics certainly remains a priority at UCLA, and a multitude of others were named to Academic All-American teams, and more than 200 of them achieved Director's Honor Roll plaudits each quarter.
The 2011-12 school year also proved to be a unique one for each of our teams that call Pauley Pavilion home. As the $136 million construction project charged forward on budget and on time, each of the teams that played there found a new, temporary home.
Most relocated to the Wooden Center; however the men's basketball team embarked on an ambitious Road Show that took them to a variety of venues throughout the Southland, giving many of you the chance to see them "in your backyard" for the first time.
Despite the challenges that the renovation posed for teams and fans alike, it will all be worth it when we return to play in New Pauley later this year.
New Pauley will not be the only noticeable change in Westwood this fall. As you already know, the football program will be under the direction of Jim Mora and his staff, and the men's volleyball team will be led by John Speraw, as he replaces the legendary Al Scates, who retired after 50 years and 19 NCAA titles.
I am excited about both new coaches and look forward to seeing them begin their illustrious careers in Westwood. I ask each of you to give them and their teams a big Bruin welcome when they return to competition.
Coach Mora's team will also be the beneficiary of some new facilities; we have secured a bid to replace the turf and grass surfaces on Spaulding Field in time for their preseason practice in late August. Meanwhile, the more than $150 million renovation project at the Rose Bowl continues as well, with tunnels widened and the partial reconstruction of the pavilion area (formerly the press box) completed for this season. As the season approaches and Word from Westwood returns in August, we will keep you updated on any additional impacts the project might have on you.
In closing, thank you again for your continued support of the program. I sincerely hope to see you at all of our venues, both the new ones and the existing ones, supporting student-athletes across our great program. We are here to make sure that each of the young men and women who put on the uniform with the four letters, U-C-L-A, enjoy themselves and are proud of what they are doing, and your support is invaluable in that regard.
Thank you and Go Bruins!
Dan Guerrero
Director of Athletics, UCLA

Google buys 1,023 patents from IBM to protect Android
Big Blue helps the Green Machine
SOFTWARE DEVELOPER Google has bought 1,023 patents from IBM to bolster its patent portfolio.
Last month Google announced its intention to acquire Motorola Mobility for $12.5bn, with the firm's 17,000 strong patent portfolio cited as a major reason. Now Google has added a further 1,023 patents from IBM in a bid to protect its Android operating system and its Open Handset Alliance partners that load it onto their devices.
Several notable Android smartphone makers including HTC, Motorola and Samsung have been sued by Apple and Microsoft, while Google itself has been sued by Oracle over alleged patent infringements in Android. Google transferred nine patents to HTC in its fight against Apple.
Google previously bought 1,030 patents from IBM back in July, though there's no information available on the amount it paid in either transaction.
While IBM might seemingly be ignoring the smartphone boom, Big Blue has one of the biggest patent portfolios in the computer industry from its decades of research and development. It is often said that even if IBM didn't sell a single thing it could keep going on patent royalties alone, and judging by Google's repeated interest, Big Blue has a lot patents that are valuable in today's market.
It's likely that Google's patent purchases from IBM will provide immediate relief for it and Android device makers until its proposed acquisition of Motorola gets approved by US regulators. µ

About the Southeastern North Carolina
The SENCRHC development was initiated in February, 2013 at a luncheon hosted by the CHHS for the health directors of Brunswick, Columbus, New Hanover, Onslow and Pender Counties and the Chief Executive Officer of the SEAHEC to explore the interest in developing a regional collaborative. While not inclusive of the entire health system, the County Public Health Departments and the Health Directors represent a starting place for partnership development. The participants were unanimously positive and supportive of moving forward to explore the development of a formal partnership – a collaborative - that could enhance the health and quality of life of individuals, families and communities in the southeastern region of North Carolina. Our mantra has become "working across county lines to enhance health and life quality in Southeastern North Carolina."
It has become increasingly apparent that effective primary, secondary and tertiary prevention must focus on what has become known as the social determinants of health. Social determinants of health are the economic and social conditions – and their distribution among the population – that influence individual and group differences in health status. We have come to understand how where we live impacts our lifelong health. It is also clear that neighborhoods and communities are not discrete entities, but exist within a larger geographic context known as regional contexts. These regional contexts are predicted to guide decisions about transportation systems, park systems, air and water safety, health care systems and other systems that directly impact our ability to make healthy choices in the future. To date, many individual communities have created wellness and prevention efforts that support health promoting environments, but most of these stop at the county boundaries. We are proposing to positively impact the health and life quality of the residents of southeastern North Carolina through the development of a regional collaborative.
An additional step in the development of the SENCRHC occurred in April 2013. CHHS hosted a day-long symposium entitled "Developing a Coastal Regional Health Collaborative." The participants included the leadership teams of the five county health departments, SEAHEC and CHHS. The symposium provided an opportunity to further the development of the Collaborative. Dr. Laura Gerald, NC State Health Director, provided an excellent keynote address highlighting the need to collaborate across county lines to enhance public health in southeastern North Carolina. Following the address, each county health department and SEAHEC presented successful programs that have demonstrated positive return on investment. The presentations were followed by a planning session in which Dr. Kate Kraft, a nationally- known consultant, introduced the collective impact framework and explored how we might employ this framework as our roadmap in developing a regional health collaborative. The consensus of the attendees was to continue the development of the partnership and for CHHS to assume the role of organizing structure. The participants also endorsed the Collective Impact model for the development of the SENCRHC, the development of a Center for Healthy Communities to become the backbone organization of the SENCRHC and requested that CHHS seek external funding to support these components. To date, the CHHS, under the direction of Dr. Stephanie Smith, Director of the Office of Community Engagement and Impact, has assumed the role of the organizing structure for the development of the SENCRHC. In addition to the support provided by CHHS UNCW and the five county agencies, we are now seeking start-up funding to further the development of the SENCRHC.

When Bill Nye "The Science Guy" agreed to debate Ken Ham on the merits of evolution versus creationism he didn't have any delusions of changing the young-earth creationist's mind. No, Nye agreed to this debate to emphasize the importance of science education for our children. The United States is lagging behind the rest of the world in science education and the push to include creationism in schools is only hurting us more.
"In short, I decided to participate in the debate because I felt it would draw attention to the importance of science education here in the United States," said Nye in an opinion piece on CNN's Belief Blog.
Ken Ham had different motives. He believes that there isn't enough debate on the topic of creationism and apparently doesn't realize that the reason for this is the debate has been over for quite some time. What Ham actually accomplished in the debate was proving Nye's motive, he proved we need to focus more on science education.
We learned last night that Ham doesn't understand scientific terms, the concept of evidence, nor the scientific method. The whole debate was pretty much as if a young child would have challenged an economics professor to a debate about why the tooth fairy should leave a dollar rather than a quarter per tooth. Nye did his best to keep his condescension under control, though, as difficult as that may have been under the circumstances.
Nye's half of the debate was extremely informative. He was able to answer every request for evidence of points we claim to know while admitting that there are some things that we don't know and can't answer yet. Ham, on the other hand, pointed to the Bible as his evidence on almost every occasion, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that creationism is not science.
Rhetoric such as Ham was proselytizing does not belong in a scientific debate, nor a science classroom.
"Exactly why God did it that way - I can't answer that question, of course, because the Bible says that God made the heavens for his glory and that's why He made the stars that we see out there, and it's to tell us how great He is and how big He is [...] that he's an all powerful God, He's an infinite God, an infinite all-knowing God who created the universe to show us his power."
When asked what evidence other than the literal word of the Bible supports his creationism, Ham tried skirting the question, rambling for a while, running out his time. His basic idea seems to be that you can't prove what happened in the past so you should just believe the Bible. He also seems to think he's at a pulpit, rather than a debate lectern.
When asked what, if anything, would change your mind, Ham was the first to address the question.
"Well, the answer to that question is I'm a Christian and, as a Christian, I can't prove it to you but God has definitely shown me, very clearly, through his word, and shown himself in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible is the word of God. I admit that's where I start from. [...] No one's ever going to convince me that the word of God is not true, but I do want to make a distinction here, and for Bill's sake. We build models based upon the bible, and those models are always subject to change. The fact of Noah's flood is not subject to change, the model of how the flood occurred is subject to change."
Very clever, Ken. Here he made clear his view that the Bible is the only truth, but left open a loophole. That's pretty much like saying, 'As you come up with more irrefutable facts, we're going to have to change our story to fit. We accept that.'
Bill answered the question like a true scientist.
"We would just need one piece of evidence. We would need the fossil that swam from one layer to another. We would need evidence that the universe is not expanding. We would need evidence that the stars appear to be far away but they're not. We would need evidence that rock layers can somehow form in just 4,000 years instead of the extraordinary amount... We would need evidence that somehow you can reset atomic clocks and keep neutrons from becoming protons. B on any of those things and you would change me immediately.
"The question I have for you though, fundamentally and for everybody watching, Mr. Ham what can you prove? What you have done tonight is spend most of the -er- all of the time coming up with explanations about the past. What can you really predict? What can you really prove in a conventional scientific, or a conventional 'I have an idea that makes a prediction and it comes out the way I see it.' This is very troubling to me."
Ken Ham spent the entire night hijacking and distorting the meanings of scientific terms, sometimes making up new terms all the while accusing science of purposefully confusing terminology. He asserts his own limits on the abilities of science to prove things based on what he chooses to reject. This is not a man who should be allowed anywhere near the educational system.
Bill Nye closed with a plea that Ken Ham spent the night proving for him. We need to improve our science education.
"I just want to close by reminding everybody what's at stake here. If we abandon all that we've learned, our ancestors, what they've learned about nature and our place in it, if we abandon the process by which we know it, if we eschew, if we let go of everything that people have learned before us, if we stop driving forward, stop looking for the next answer to the next question, we in the United States will be out-competed by other countries, other economies. Now that would be okay, I guess, but I was born here, I'm a patriot, and so we have to embrace science education. To the voters and tax-payers that are watching, please keep that in mind. We have to keep science education in science, in science classes. Thank You."

21 Absurdly Simple Motivation Tricks You Can Use Right Now
8 Sep
Go for a walk. Jump up and down. Run into the middle of the street (no, don't do that.)
It's been said a million times, so this makes it 1,000,001. When we move, we feel better, think better, and do better. If you want to get something done, start moving.
Break It Down, Again and Again
Everyone says break down your goal. I'm different. I say, Break down your goal, and then break it down again! (I know, I'm a wizard with this stuff.)
Goals are about change and change is scary. So people hesitate, forget, and move on. But not if you make the step forward small enough. In that case, the discomfort is lowered to an acceptable level and you actually do it. So break it down, again and again.
Never Wait for Permission
If you've been with me for a while, you'll remember that I gave you permission to do whatever you wanted to do a few weeks ago. So this one is for the new readers…or the old ones with terrible memories.
People want someone, somewhere, to say it's okay. They need reassurance that their ideas aren't ridiculous. Do they really need it? Of course not, but they feel they do. So they wait for someone to give permission, and waiting is the enemy of progress.
Just in case you're one of the waiters, here you go: I grant you permission to go forth with your crazy idea and have a wonderful time doing it.
Do It for Me (or Someone Else)
People like people. Not all people, of course, but we're social creatures. We need companionship, conversation, connection. Let's be terrible humans and use this to our advantage.
If you aren't changing for you, do it for someone else. Think about how a better you will help you mom or dad, your husband or wife, your son or daughter. What will your success bring into their lives? (An example to follow? Security? A happier you?)
Get Around the Right People
The old adage: If you want to be rich, hang out with rich people. (Insert your goal in place of 'rich,' and the adage is all yours.)
When you spend time with people who have what you want–as opposed to merely reading about them–you can't help but pick up a little of their mojo. You see how they think, how they interact with people, how they work through problems, how they respond to chaos. In essence, how they do what they do.
And when you do what they do, you get what they got.
Avoid the Wrong People
Franklin said it best: He that lieth down with Dogs, shall rise up with Fleas. In other words, the tip above works just as well in reverse. If you spend time with the wrong people, they'll rub off on you.
We are genetically programmed to fit in. Otherwise, we'd be kicked out of the tribe and starve. So when good people are part of a bad group, they are motivated to join in and be accepted as one of the gang (which explains why gangs are so powerful). Avoid this risk. If your circle of friends includes people doing things you don't want to do, make a change. Create some distance. Or run.
Mess with Your Routine
Routine is a killer…of hopes, dreams, and spontaneous dance sessions. It's like a sopping wet blanket draped on us at all hours of the day; we drag ourselves, zombie-like, from one routine to the next. We're not really living, just dragging.
You need to break out of this.
Do something different. Instead of coming home and flopping onto the couch, come home and flop onto your bike. Instead of hopping on Facebook at the start of the day, donate to a charity online. Instead of doing what you always do, do something different.
Never Wait for the Idea
Are you waiting for the idea to hit you? To punch you square in the nose, maybe sometime next month? Reality check: it won't.
Whether it's your life purpose or just a new hobby, people sit around and wait for the right idea to strike. "I'm not sure what I want. It'll come sooner or later." Bet on later.
You have to do things if you want to figure out what's right for you. Join clubs. Read books. Meet people. Do, do do. Then you'll know, for certain, which things are for you and which are for someone else.
Do One Thing
I'm working on a new book for you. Well, it's an updated version of an old book. And it's not just for you, but for everyone in our little community. (But mainly for you.)
This project is part of a long list of things I need to get done. As such, it's not getting the attention it needs. What I need to do, and what you need to do with whatever you have to accomplish, is focus on finishing one thing. Not dabbling in dozens. Just one.
Push aside e-mail. Push aside television. Push aside all the little things that eat away at your time like a hungry caterpillar on a sunny day. Focus on getting one thing done, from start to finish. Then, when it's complete, you can move on. But not until it's done.
(I'll take this advice in a moment, but if I followed it now the post would be over already.)
What is the Worst Thing?
What's the absolute worst thing that will happen if you go for it and screw up? At first it might seem as though dreadful things will occur. The stock market will crash. Your car will explode. We'll discover the moon isn't made of cheese.
But, when you look at the facts, you quickly realize the worst case isn't actually that bad.
Your life won't be over if no one likes your novel. You won't risk everything if you take that trip to Australia. You won't pass out if you give that presentation to the board.
What is the Worst Thing? (Part 2)
Same question, different idea.
What's the worst thing that will happen if you wimp out and give up before you even begin? Think bad, really bad. The more horrifying you make this picture, the more driven you'll be to make sure it never happens.
(A smoker shouldn't imagine wasting hoards of money or having trouble finishing a walk up the stairs; he should imagine leaving behind a family shattered, a loved one taken by cancer too soon.)
What is the Best Thing?
What is the absolute best thing that is going to happen when you finally reach your goal? As with the tip above, the bigger you make this possibility, the more motivational juice it will have.
Tips within a Tip: When you have your idea, write it down on paper and put it in a place you'll see often. Then find pictures to represent that idea. If you want to be a philosophy professor, for example, you might find a picture of a cavernous lecture room. This image will automatically bring to mind the joy you'll feel as you walk into your own classroom, dozens of seats filled with smiling faces eager to learn. (Hey, it's your vision, so you can fudge the facts a little.)
New, New, New
Do something you've never done before.
Go Big
I know it's cheesy–and I'm no fan of cheese–but the idea has some merit. If you aim high, you'll make some pretty incredible things happen. Here's why:
We aren't excited about easy tasks. Tie your shoes today? Do a happy dance when finished? I didn't think so. (If you did…well, congrats.) What excites us are true challenges. We love to be pushed, to overcome, to be victorious in the face of untold obstacles. It's part of our chemistry.
We also love big ideas. They inspire. They fill our heads with hope. They motivate.
So think big.
Choose a date on which to finish or your idea is as good as dead.
As a species, we can generate excuses faster than anything on earth. I'm flabbergasted at how quickly people churn out an endless stream of reasons why they can't do something about their goals. Yes, flabbergasted.
We're geniuses at rationalizing, so we have to be on guard against our own crafty selves. Deadlines are one way to do that. Put a concrete date on an idea and the wishy-washy concept becomes a real thing.
Instead of digging up excuses for procrastination, your brain looks for ways to finish the work by the end date.
Not Ready? Do It Anyway!
It doesn't have to be perfect. This one idea could change your life forever.
Smart people from every walk of life run into this: they have an idea, learn about said idea, and, then, they learn a little more. Then a little more. Then a little more…then a little more.
It's the good ol' paralysis by analysis.
They put off actually doing the real work because learning about it is so much more comfortable. No real progress is made, but it sure feels like they're doing something. They just keep learning, waiting for the moment when they know everything, when their plans are guaranteed to work flawlessly.
No more. Good enough is good enough. That video you want to put on your blog that has bad lighting? Get it up. That script you want to show your friends but has a few holes in the story? Show them. That dance routine you want to try out at the place where they do dance routines? Just dance.
The most important thing is to do it. You can fix it, tweak it, change it, scrap it later. But nothing happens until you put your idea in action. No more waiting, no more studying. Do it.
Realize (Part 1)
You know that thing you really want to do?
No, not that one. The other one.
Yeah…that one.
Someone else has already done it. Realize that means you can do it too.
Realize (Part 2)
You have the opportunity right now. You can finish reading this post (all the way to the end!) and do something about your goals or ideas. That's right now. Tomorrow…next week…next month? Who knows.
There are no promises. Realize that what you see today might not be there tomorrow.
I suggest acting when you can. (That's right now, but not until you're done reading.)
Realize (Part 3)
Realize the plateau you hit may not be a sign to quit. It might be the dip, Seth Godin's term for the hard part of the process that divides those who can't hack it from those who stand above the crowd as truly special, as rare.
Having said that, sometimes it's not only okay to quit, it's the best possible choice.
When you know you're heading down the wrong path–and not just a difficult stretch that challenges you–get out. There's no sense in sticking with a goal that isn't right for you, just as there's no sense in reading a bad book to the end (though I feel that tug every time).
Life is too short.
Quit when it's wrong, stick when it's right.
Don't do it by yourself. Find people who know more than you do. Reach out. Get help.

The Pac-12's second-leading scorer has a season-low eight points on 2-for-10 shooting, and the Huskies (13-11, 5-6 Pac-12) fell behind immediately by plenty for their sixth straight road loss. Next: home Wednesday against Stanford.
By Gregg Bell
UW Director of Writing
BOULDER, Colo. � The light shining through an otherwise dark night against these rampaging Buffaloes?
The Huskies left immediately following Sunday night's game here -- on a charter jet ride from Denver through Idaho Falls (for fuel) -- to return home. They are 11-2 at Alaska Airlines Arena this season, winners 14 times in their last 17 games there. And that's where five of UW's final seven regular-season games will be, beginning Wednesday against Stanford at 6 p.m.
"We have to make hay in (our) barn, as they say," coach Lorenzo Romar said after a 91-65 loss to Colorado inside the thrilled Coors Events Center.
"If there was ever a time to now make a run, we've got to do it."
The Huskies started cold against a fired-up home team still smarting over a blowout loss to them a month ago. And they never recovered.
Three days after UW lost at Utah, and before the roaring locals here could get all the outside snow off their boots, the Huskies trailed 10-0 and 13-2. Nine minutes into the game Washington was down by 17.
"Colorado, wow," Romar said. "They knocked us back on our heels right away."
C.J. Wilcox, the second-leading scorer in the Pac-12, made two of 10 shots and was 0 for 7 from 3-point range for a season-low eight points.
He said afterward his legs were tired.
"I don't know if it was the altitude, or the game from Utah, but they were a little heavy, yeah," Wilcox said of his rare way-off night.
He wasn't alone; UW shot just 32 percent.
Credit Wilcox for standing tall against a cinder-block wall outside the Huskies' locker room and acknowledging the responsibility is his to see his team through games like this.
Through all games, for that matter.
It's a burden the eighth Husky to score 1,500 points at UW admitted is difficult, being "The Man" expected to have huge scoring nights every night for a team with six new faces this season.
"It is," Wilcox said. "You know, just being that fifth-year senior, you've got the responsibility to bring it every game � no matter what's going on.
"I wasn't able to do that tonight."
Nigel Williams-Goss scored 15 points but was just 5 of 13 from the field. Perris Blackwell added 10 points for Washington (13-11, 5-6 Pac-12), which fell to 2-7 on the road and lost its sixth straight away game since beginning conference play with a win at Arizona State on Jan. 2.
"We just didn't come out with the energy and focus that we needed on the road," Williams-Goss, now averaging 13.3 points per game in his debut season, said of Sunday. "No reason. We just didn't."
The resulting was alarming, but the Huskies say they are not alarmed. It's an important distinction for these final seven games of the regular season and then the Pac-12 tournament that begins March 12 in Las Vegas.
To think, these Huskies entered last weekend's game at Washington State with a chance for second in the league.
"I wouldn't have guessed that if we were going to come out on the short end it would be like this. I thought we would be better tonight," Romar said.
"You know, we haven't done a good job on the road. The first weekend when we went to Arizona I thought we played very good basketball. We haven't really been able to duplicate that since.
"We've been playing much better at home, and our next five out of seven are at home. So I wouldn't say I'm alarmed."
Colorado (18-6, 7-4) made six of its first nine shots from 3-point range, as the Dawgs missed quick shots and committed turnovers that fed the Buffaloes' romp. When the game did slow into half-court sets, the Huskies got stuck behind screens that freed Buffs for wide-open looks. Romar went to a zone for one possession to mitigate CU's perimeter screens � and the Buffaloes got an offensive rebound and score against that.
Yet the Huskies showed some grit in getting back within seven points, 35-30. Mike Anderson played a first half great for far more than his four points and five rebounds. He was aggressive offensively in the lane, tapping balls out to keep possessions alive and scrapping for loose balls on defense. Anderson and Williams-Goss led a 14-6 run that had the Huskies back in the game.
But that rally just to get within 10 took much of what was left out of Washington.
"It tough, especially when you are down 20-4 or whatever it was," Wilcox said. "Battling back, your tank's empty you are still down."
As Wilcox and others kept missing from outside, Colorado, the second-leading rebounding team in Pac-12 behind once-beaten Arizona, collected long caroms for a 24-13 edge on the boards in the first half. That led to CU's 9-2 edge in fast-break points and a 48-33 lead at halftime.
The 48 points were the most Colorado had scored in the first half during its three seasons in the Pac-12.
The lead got up to 23 early in the second half, and to 89-59 with 3 minutes left. Wilcox uncharacteristically passed up numerous shots outside � and some within a dozen feet of the rim -- with his defender four feet off of him. He didn't have a shot attempt from the field from the 15:31 mark of the second half until he left the game for good with about 4 minutes remaining.
Wilcox had scored a career-high 31 points in the Huskies' 71-54 win over Colorado on Jan. 12 in Seattle. His 12 makes on 18 shots were a career best, as were his seven 3-pointers in 12 tries that night.
The Buffaloes had been ranked 15th in the country entering that game but then lost leading scorer Spencer Dinwiddie to a season-ending knee injury in the first half at Alaska Airlines Arena. They lost a three-point lead and then the game to the Huskies after Dinwiddie got hurt, and they had lost of four of their previous six games without him before beating Washington State 68-63 here on Thursday.
Then this week, CU lost another starter to injury, forward Wesley Gordon. But Askia Booker � 0 for 9 for zero points in these teams' first meeting � scored 20 this time for Colorado.
After this loss, and with the Huskies heading home for the bulk of this month, Wilcox isn't alarmed, either.
"It's big. We play well at home," Wilcox said. "We need to take advantage of that, regroup and take care of business."
That business still includes hopes for the Huskies' first NCAA tournament appearance in three years, coming out of a Pac-12 considered among the three toughest conferences in the country right now.
"On the court we are always saying, �Tournament, tournament, tournament,' to motivate guys," Wilcox said. "We understand how every game is, especially these next seven. If we win most of our games, almost win out, and do well in the Pac-12 tournament, there's still hope."

JP Morgan Joins the GDP Downgrade Party
By Peter Nurse
JP Morgan joined the increasing band of big banks to downgrade its expectations for U.S. growth in the coming quarters.
JP Morgan stated that the risks to its previous projection for 2.5% growth in the fourth quarter "are now very clearly to the downside," and thus lowered its forecast for growth in that quarter to 1.0%. It also lowered its first quarter 2012 growth forecast to 0.5% from 1.5%.
"Declining energy prices should help to cushion some of the weakness in the economy, and the still-low levels of cyclically-sensitive spending could reduce the chances of getting a negative GDP quarter," said JP Morgan's analysts. "Nonetheless, the risks of a recession are clearly elevated."
On Thursday, Morgan Stanley downgraded its forecasts for global growth this year and the next, citing weaker-than-expected growth in the second quarter of 2011, along with slower global trade growth and additional austerity measures announced in several countries.
It cut its 2011 global gross domestic product growth forecast to 3.9% from 4.2%, and its 2012 estimate to 3.8% from 4.5%. Morgan Stanley also lowered its 2011 GDP growth forecast for the euro zone to 1.7% from a previous estimate of 2%, and its 2012 estimate to 0.5%, from 1.2% previously. For China, Morgan Stanley downgraded its 2012 GDP growth estimate to 8.7% from 9.0%.
Fellow global investment banking and securities firm Goldman Sachs Thursday also made downward revisions to its global GDP growth forecasts.
It said it now expects 4.0% growth in 2011 and 4.4% in 2012, compared with previous estimates of 4.1% and 4.6%, respectively. It cut its 2011 GDP growth forecast for the U.S. to 1.7% from 1.8%, and for 2012 to 2.1% from 3.0%. For Europe, Goldman downgraded its 2011 GDP estimate to 1.9% from 2.1% and its 2012 estimate to 1.4% from 1.7%.

A twenty pound Angldile Scale stlye 303 serial #38172, circa 1906, made by Springless Automatic of Elkhart, Indiana. The scale mechanism is referred by collectors as a "headlight" in the wide diameter face that tapers back to a point. This Angldile Scale is unique with the lite up marque. This scale measures 27" tall by 30" wide by 16" deep. Restored in a deep metallic blue detailed with a gold metallic and light blue pin strip. The metal surfaces, including the spring mechanism, is gold plated. The platform glass is etched with the Angdile logo. This scale is the most desired scale by scale collectors and I would challenge anyone to find a better quality restoration. This is a museum quality investment that is not replaceable.

Money CAN Grow on Trees: New Software for Effective Urban Forest Management
On the surface, trees and software might not seem to go together. However, i-Tree is a high-tech tool that urban foresters have found invaluable in planning and managing their tree systems.
"This is an opportunity to learn how electronic public-domain assessments allow communities to integrate the environmental benefits that trees provide into an operations/planning framework," says presenter Greg Ina, general manager of The Davey Institute.
In addition to assessment tools, the i-Tree software includes flexible application scenarios that can be tailored to a particular community's needs, and examples of how communities are applying i-Tree to their urban forestry program.

"My hope is that attendees will review how their own organizations are operating and implement some of the methods we are using," DeVries says. "The idea is to try to break the mold, from 'that's the way we've always done it,' to, 'if they can do it, why can't we?'"

FRESNO, Calif. -- After a dominant defensive performance in the first half, the Fresno State men's basketball team held on late to secure their first Mountain West Conference win of the year, knocking off Air Force 71-65 on Wednesday night at the Save Mart Center.
The Bulldogs held the Falcons to just 16 points in the first half while building an 11-point halftime lead.
Air Force, which came into the contest shooting 47% on the year, was just 5-for-25 from the field in the opening half. Their only bucket in the final 7:20 came on a Kamryn Williams three-pointer with 44 seconds left in the half.
"Without question, probably our best defensive game of the year for 40 minutes against a really, really good offensive team in terms of execution and probably the best passing team we've played to this point right now," Fresno State head coach Rodney Terry said.
Tyler Johnson tied a season-high with 25 points to lead Fresno State. He also pulled down a team-high eight rebounds. Cezar Guerrero and Marvelle Harris also scored in double figures, posting 18 and 13, respectively.
"It's just a matter of getting back into the flow from an offensive standpoint, and he's been able to do that the last two ballgames," Terry said of Johnson. "The effort's been there since he's gotten back."
After being outscored from the free throw line by 14 points in each of their first two conference games, the Bulldogs finally found a way to reverse that statistic largely thanks to Johnson. The senior was a perfect 10-for-10 at the stripe as part of a 24-for-32 effort by the Bulldogs. Air Force finished 17-for-22.
Fresno State now hits the road for a two-game road trip that will open in Fort Collins, Colo., on Saturday for a matchup with Colorado State at 6:00 p.m., PT. The Rams are coming off a 66-64 win over San José State.
"Catch the Wave!" - 2013-14 Fresno State men's basketball tickets are now on sale and can be ordered online at www.gobulldogs.com or over the phone at 559-278-DOGS (3647). The official home of the Fresno State Bulldogs is 940 AM ESPN Radio.

Today's economic mess claimed a new casualty on Friday, May 16, 2014, when the Darden Restaurant chain announced that it is selling its oldest chain restaurant Red Lobster.
There is an old saying that if a restaurant survives its first two years in business, then smoother sailing is ahead. However this is obviously not the case with Red Lobster. The chain has been a Darden hallmark since 1968, and has managed to stay afloat for almost five decades. Unfortunately times have changed. People can no longer go out and spend $50 on dinner for two. People who have dined at Red Lobster will readily admit that this is one of the pricier restaurants, so it makes sense that higher end restaurants would be the ones who would be at the greatest risk.
This is not the first time that Red Lobster faced its own demise. Last fall a rumor began floating around that the restaurant chain was shutting its doors permanently. That rumor proved false, but it did alert the public to the crisis that the restaurant chain was facing. Aside from the closing of a Red Lobster/Olive Garden Hybrid in Thomasville, Georgia, earlier this month, there have been no other closings within the chain.
So what will happen to Red Lobster? Darden had been fishing for potential buyers, and caught one in the form of Golden Gate Capital. This investment firm already owns the California chain, Pizza Kitchen, and seems eager to try their hands at seafood. According to a press release issued by Darden, Golden Gate Capital will acquire the chain for $1.6 billion. This will include all assets and assumed liabilities. The transaction is expected to be completed by the first fiscal quarter of 2015.

Shooting at someone is not less than lethal force, even if you end up missing or hitting them in the leg.

Shooting at someone is not less than lethal force, even if you end up missing or hitting them in the leg.
You'll get burned...Quote:
This is less than lethal force, and should you end up in court over it......
Sorry, Sheldon, you still don't get it. You never shoot to wound.
But I'll tell you what. You shoot the dude in the kneecap, I'll shoot center of mass. Which method stands the best chance of stopping the threat, which is the only objective in a self defense shooting?
Oh, and BTW, shooting at tennis balls on the range in controlled conditions is not the same as shooting at a kneecap in a stressful, adrenaline filled self defense situation.
does anyone know how the fight started? ive never heard of a fight in a restaurant.:tumbleweed:
"ive never heard of a fight in a restaurant."
I guess 'The Times, They are A'Changing.' It seems like there are no really safe places anymore. Total lack of civility in today's society. Just stepping out the front door today carries enough risk to warrant being armed at all times. For that matter just sitting at home reading a book or watching a ball game makes having a firearm within reach a sensible idea.
In Michigan it was explained to us that we have to be in danger of great bodily harm(including rape I believe) or death to use deadly force. There was no requirement of weapons on the assailant side. As another stated if a large athletic person is getting sideways on you and due to age or a physical disability or other reason you cannot physically defend yourself you may be in danger of great bodily harm or death.
N shooting at some part of the body other than COM I admit could be lethal should you sever an artery to that body part. But one thing for sure in the eyes of a jury a knee shot is going to be a whole lot less lethal in their eyes than a COM.
Been on jury duty 5 different times now (2 murder, 1 robbery, 1 assault, 1 fraud---just luckuy I guess) and I know how they think. Shooting to stop is the goal, and a drunk with a chair is a whole lot different than a crack head with a chair, and this is a drunk, which could be on crack I admit but then he would not have likely been there in the first place.
Point being each situation is unique, each situation must be judged by the individual, handled by that individual within their skill set, and for you that is COM to stop a drunk, that should it go to court would be put under a microscope by the prosecutor.
For me I have had some extended training and it would not have been the gun at all but let them charge and a side step to put them down on the floor, and then drop my 275 pounds on their back and restrain until the police show up.
But that was not a real option in the start this was started as a shoot or not and it kind of got skewered from there...
Still the primary point is avoid these situations in the first place, situational awareness is key, retreat when ever possible, if you feel your life is in danger respond accordingly within your particular skill set and if that is 2 COM then so be it but you will have to live with the consequences....
Remember drunks may be argumentative but very unquardneated, their motor skills are dulled and are just as likely to trip over their own feet should they try and run, should they swing their momentum will likely take them down depending upon their state of inebration....
One huge rule here, is never argue or engage in a discussion with a drunk, and if cornered by one bite your tongue and always agree with what ever they say regardless of how inane.... Again avoid the situation!
Personally, I would hate to lose my CCW privileges due to a drunk with a chair in a bar fight. So if getting the heck out of Dodge is an option, I am taking it, unless he is coming after me specifically. If he wants me, then we handle it differently, and seriously. I have pondered how my exposure (legally) is increased if I had/have been drinking, and how that could be played into questioning my ability to determine actual risk after drinking. I think it safer to not drink and carry at the same time. So it looks like less drinking.
AZ Legislature is voting today about legally carrying in restaurants that serve alcohol, so this may be more pertinent today than previously.
One in particular involved a waitress at a very popular family owned restaurant here. Apparently the exgirlfriend of the waitress's boyfriend came in and demanded she stop seeing the guy. It got physical (Que Olivia Newton John) and the waitress grabbed a steak knife out of the sink.
We didn't see the fight, just heard the noise from the kitchen, got the details later.
This sorta reminds me of my first time in a bar at the ripe age of 16. It was a lil honky tonk out in the middle of nowhere. A fight broke out which quickly became a brawl like the one described, bottles and pool balls being thrown, pool cues being swung. I was 5'5 and weighed 135 soaking wet then. I watched awestruck for about 30 secs then crawled under a pool table until it was over. :ahhhhh:
I know it sucks, but I think in AZ that if someone is coming at you with a chair, it is physical force and not deadly force unless your a female.
While waiting for an exit, someone approaches you and is about to hit you over the head with a chair. What to do?
Much depends on the exact nature of the chair. :biggrin2:
Can't CCW in bars.
Shout real fast "Can I buy U a drink?) lol if he is
a real drunk that will stop him in his tracks :wink:
Plan 2 - Use OC spray

We are not being unkind, but we do wish Roslyn Kind could have had a bigger career.
How could she when her half-sister (same mom, different pop) is Barbra Streisand?
Kind tried to become a star on her own talents, and though she had minor successes here and there, she never could fight her way clear of Babs.
Think of Lorna and Liza.
The most frustrating thing is that Kind, 63, had a marvelous voice . . . warm, gritty, soft, powerful. She sometimes reminds a listener of Streisand; maybe she does this on purpose, maybe not.
Back in the late '60s, while She With the Big Nose was a funny girl with bigger success, Kind recorded two RCA albums, Give Me You and This is Roslyn Kind. The records died, but Masterworks Broadway has decided to disinter them. The two albums have recently been released on one CD, a few weeks before Streisand's latest CD, Partners, gets released. The Masterworks flaks insist the songs Kind recorded "are fascinating time capsules from a period–1968-69–when American popular music was undergoing seismic changes. There is a bit of Broadway to be heard, but most of the material reflects Kind's own taste and then-current trends in popular music."
And what a delight the CD is. Once listen (it all begins with a smashing take of "Give Me You") reminds you that Kind had a solid voice with appeal that could (but won't) give Babs a run for her money.
Kind had been working throughout the years, charity concerts, smaller rooms, even gay bathhouses. She rarely looked back to these albums that started her career, until this year, when her music director suggested she add material from Give Me You and This is Roslyn Kind in her live act.
The liner notes on the Masterworks Broadway are fascinating, and we won't reveal much, though the cover photo has its own tale, and developments clearly focused. Roz (she prefers "Rozzie") must down playthe look to her sister; check out the show-biz spookiness here: www.broadwayworld.com/videoplay.php?colid=729793#.U_UHfPldWo9
Roslyn Kind's half-sister was not kind to a career that should be soaring
We are not being unkind, but we do wish Roslyn Kind could have had a bigger career.

NCC: Omniums in VA & OK corral NCC riders
The 19-event USA Cycling National Criterium Calendar (NCC) rolled into its 11th and 12th contests last weekend as the Saint Francis Tulsa Tough and Air Force Cycling Classic held multi-day events over the weekend. The three-day event in Tulsa, Okla., was witnessed by countless spectators and watched online by many more. The two-day omnium in Arlington, Va., attracted many of the top criterium racers in the business, crowning worthy winners on Sunday.
Hilton Clarke (AUS/UnitedHealthcare p/b Maxxis) remains the leader of the NCC men's standings after finishing second in the omnium of the Air Force Cycling Classic. Jacobe Keough (Sandwich, Mass./UnitedHealthcare p/b Maxxis) finished seventh on Saturday before winning Sunday to take the omnium win and jump from fourth into second place in the standings. Keough's surge up the standings now has him only 95 points behind Clarke with five events remaining for the men. Carlos Alzate Escobar (COL/Team Exergy) finished third overall in Virginia, but slipped into third in the standings, 19 points behind Keough. Luke Keough (Sandwich, Mass./UnitedHealthcare p/b Maxxis), who placed fifth in the omnium at the Air Force Cycling Classic, slipped one spot to fourth place, 25 points behind Escobar and 69 points ahead of fifth-place Brad Huff (Springfield, Mo./Jelly Belly Cycling Team). Huff finished second to Ken Hanson (Santa Barbara, Calif./Team Optum p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies) at the Tulsa Tough.
After placing three of the top four men at the Air Force Cycling Classic, UnitedHealthcare p/b Maxxis has opened a 461-point cushion atop the NCC men's team standings. Jamis-Sutter Home is in second place, 51 points ahead of third-place Team Exergy. Team Mountain Khakis p/b SmartStop held its fourth-place position, 151 points ahead of Kenda 5 Hour Energy p/b Geargrinder.
Erica Allar (Tucson, Ariz./RideClean-PatentIt.com) strung together three top-five finishes in Oklahoma to win the omnium and increase her lead atop the NCC women's standings. Allar won Friday's criterium before placing fifth and fourth, respectively, in the races on Saturday and Sunday. Laura van Gilder (Cresco, Pa./Mellow Mushroom), who finished second to Allar in Tulsa, remains in second place, 194 points behind Allar and 119 points ahead of third-place Sarah Fader (Morrisville, N.C./Pepper Palace-Spin-Tech Training p/b ABRC). Nicky Wangsgard (Cedar City, Utah/Primal-MapMyRider Women's Racing) remains in fourth place, 71 points behind Fader and 22 points ahead of Christina Gokey-Smith (Denton, Texas/NOW and Novartis for MS).
Despite winning Sunday's race, Fader finished third in the omnium in Virginia, finishing behind Leah Kirchmann (CAN/Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies) and Joanne Kiesanowski (Seattle, Wash./Team TIBCO-To the Top).
Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies has trimmed Team TIBCO-To the Top's lead in the NCC women's team standings. The margin between the top two teams has been chipped down to 90 points. In third place, 116 points behind Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies, is NOW and Novartis for MS which holds a 148-point cushion on Primal-MapMyRider Women's Racing. The fifth-place team, only four points out of fourth place, is Vanderkitten-Focus.
