Die Broke is organized into two sections: the first lays out the principles for dying broke. Pollan bases his whole argument on these four maxims: quit today and work for yourself, not your company; pay cash, melt your credit cards, and don't even think about using your ATM card; don't retire, retirement is a relatively new concept created during the Depression, instead plan to work all your life, and; die broke, after all, you can't take it with you.
The second part looks at specific instances of how to put this philosophy into action, covering everything from "Automated Teller Machines and Cards" and "Umbrella Liability Insurance" to "Mortgage Loans" and "Real Estate Investment Trusts." The book draws on Pollan's experience as a financial and legal consultant and includes many examples from his own practice.
Some may find Pollan's views extreme. However, if you're starting to think about retirement or are at all worried about your financial future, Die Broke is worth a look. Even if you think you've got it all figured out, this book could change your mind. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Those reviewers who criticize the book as a case against retirement planning miss the point. Whether or not you plan to "die broke", you'll need substantial assets to provide a comfortable income in your seventies, eighties, and beyond, God willing. Die Broke is about how to accumulate those assets, and how to make the best use of them, not at all an excuse for not saving.
Regarding their views on retirement, Pollan and Levine are preaching the not-so-heretical idea that many of us will find both fulfillment and income working past the standard retirement age, and should take that into account as we plan for that time. Indeed, social scientists are starting to find that people who keep working (often part-time, or as volunteers) are happier and live longer than those who "retire".
I highly recommend this book to people thinking about their careers and finances. Even if you disagree with its conclusions, it will stimulate your own thinking and planning. Be sure however to check with a qualified advisor before undertaking any of the detailed strategies mentioned, as tax and other rules are constantly changing.
You know the bumper stickers you see that say "We're Spending Our Children's Inheritance"? This book is based on that theory, although with a kinder philosophy behind it. The authors recommend you
1) Quit Your Job. (virtually,not actually)Rather than leaving your job, start thinking of yourself as an independent contractor - and make sure you do what you like, get what you want) The work world has changed, employers complain about lack of employee loyalty, but will 'right size' you tomorrow
2) Pay Cash - Get rid of credit card thinking and credit card debt. This is not your father's credit card system anymore!
3) Don't Retire - The idea of putting yourself out to pasture at a given age is as dated as the concept of thinking you have to grow your inheritance to leave to your kids.
4) Die Broke. Spend your money wisely now, use legal ways you can take care of your parents and your kids while you are still alive.
The idea is not to live poor or foolishly, but to rethink entirely why you are struggling so hard now for a tomorrow that may or may not come. Use your money today, to take care of yourself and your loved ones. This book is easy to read without talking down to the reader, is full of good advice with possible to practice wisdom. A good investment!
Many people, including myself, worry continually about how to raise the money needed to survive for thirty years after retirement. Pollan's ideas help us to break out of the outdated concepts that give us these feelings so that we can feel better about ourselves and our current financial state.
1) Quit Your Job. Pollan recognizes that the vast majority of businesses don't care about their employees. When push comes to shove, anyone that isn't vital is gone with no regrets. Many readers already know that. Pollan argues that since your employer is no longer your protector, you should treat the relationship as a relationship of equals. That means doing what your employer is doing......by putting your needs first. Give him or her an honest day's work, but think always in terms of where you're going and what skills you need to get there. You are a free agent. You are responsible for your professional growth, not the person in the corner office. For some, this may mean stepping out on their own. For others, it may mean staying on the job but approaching it differently. Whatever it means to you, recognize that when things go bad for the company, nobody's going to care about your mortgage, credit card bills and braces for the kids. You need to make sure that you've got that covered by developing a set of skills and attitude that can't be replaced. That's what free agents do.
2) Pay Cash - Bingo. I stopped buying on credit years ago. I won't even buy a car unless I can pay cash for it and have accelerated mortgage payments and will soon have paid off the house. This is extreme behavior modification for many of us, but it is the true path to freedom in life.Read more ›

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

New world of screen-time for kids may leave data outdated
Share your news and viewsShare your stories, photos and videos.
Relevant offers
Two-thirds of Kiwi toddlers have their eyes glued to electronic screens for at least part of every day.
The study, Growing Up in New Zealand, tracked the development of approximately 7000 Kiwi children.
It found that 71 per cent of toddlers are watching TV, with 64 per cent watching up to three hours daily.
The recommended amount is nil screen time for kids under 2.
The figures have researchers delivering a cautious note to parents.
Dr Susan Morton, research director of the study, said past studies have linked excessive TV viewing with obesity and behavioural problems.
Morton said past studies may be outdated, given the different electronic media available today, and said interacting with various devices had become the norm rather than the exception.
"It's almost becoming universal," she said.
"We saw one in three of our children were watching TV daily when we saw them at nine months, by the time they're two we are seeing more than three-quarters of the children watching between one to three hours.
"I think the issue is going to be working out what connections, if any, will this have on their later well being."
Two Hamilton mothers involved in the study had differing views on technology.
Yuanita King said her son Caiel is a master at various interactive devices including the iPad, laptop and his mum's phone.
"He's not really interested in TV. He has an iPad and they're really good learning devices," she said.
King said her son has advanced handwriting and is enjoying the various learning applications on his iPad.
"He spends about two hours a day on his iPad, not all at once. It's split between the different activities he does."
Outdoor play is also part of Caiel's daily life, but is restricted to the family's yard when his parents cannot take him to the park.
"It's a different atmosphere, compared to when I grew up in the country," King said.
"Back then we were able to play at the park till the lights went on. My children play on our yard so I can keep an eye on them. I don't know whether that's because we live in the city or whether that was something country kids did?"
However, mum Laurene Williams says she is trying to develop her son Caddell's outdoor skills and has eliminated TV viewing during the week.
"Generally he doesn't watch TV. In the weekends he sits and watches motorsports with his dad," she said.
"They do occasionally watch a DVD but not often."
Williams said they own two computers as well as a laptop; however, use of the devices is not extended to her son.
"We grew up without computers when we were kids and we use computers proficiently now," she said.
"I read an article about a computer executive who said they build computers to be used by complete dummies. So there's no need to rush to teach our children to use these things."
Morton said answers weren't available at present to predict whether the access to readily available knowledge will cause issues with childrens' reasoning.
"I think it does sort of challenge a lot of the ways in which we deliver formal and informal education," she said.
"These children are going to be used to just tapping on a device to find out knowledge. The question will be how they learn to discern useful knowledge and what is perhaps fact and opinion."
Morton recommends that parents weave in outdoor activity alongside limited electronic play.
71 per cent watched some TV, DVDs or videos on any given day.
75 per cent spent up to one hour on a computer/laptop, including children's systems such as Leapfrog, daily.
52 per cent listened to CDs, iPods and MP3 players.
72 per cent spent up to one hour playing electronic gaming devices.

FCC Chairman Kevin Martin expressed frustration Wednesday
that the other four commissioners rejected his plan to make rules that could
have provided Class A stations a clear path to full-power status.
The commission struck the item from its Wednesday (Oct. 15) meeting
at about 4 p.m. Tuesday when Martin realized he did not have the votes to pass
it. He said other commissioners supported a lesser measure—a notice of inquiry—that
would have removed the potential for mandatory cable carriage for Low-Power
"This provided nothing for Low-Power," Martin told reporters
in conference call.
Martin the plan has been circulating among commissioners
since February and he suggested that pressure from broadcasters and cable companies had changed the view of some commissioners.
The plan would have enabled some Class A stations to apply for full-power status, under which they would then qualify for cable must-carry rights.
In a jab at Democratic Commissioners Jonathan Adelstein and
Michael Copps, he said that some commissioners had previously voiced support
for measures that would increase the diversity of broadcast voices, but now
rejected his plan.
"They're not being straightforward," he said.

Fischer: JC Penney Responsible for Rise in Suicide and Breast Cancer Because of Partnership with Ellen
Bryan Fischer, who last week explained how Bill Clinton was responsible for the rise in oral cancer, is back with another attack on JC Penney for hiring Ellen DeGeneres, this time claiming it will lead to more depression, suicide, and breast cancer among women who become lesbians due to the store's choice of spokesperson:
Will America's young women be just a bit more likely to experiment with lesbianism now that JCPenney is mainstreaming it? Too any objective observer, the answer must be yes. Is this a good thing? To any objective observer, the answer must be no.
Research has indicated that lesbians suffer from increased levels of depression, suicidal ideation, substance abuse, breast cancer and vaginal diseases compared to heterosexual women.
Thus what JCPenney has done, by increasing, even if ever so slightly, the chances that young women will experiment with this behavior will turn out to be a tragic thing for some. JCPenney will have to share some culpability for that.

text: At first this seemed to be a wpa_supplicant problem, but now I've seen two issues that bring me to the ndiswrapper mailing list... Here is the spec on this part, in a Dell D600 laptop: 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation: Unknown device 4320 (rev 03) Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation: Unknown device 0003 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 32, IRQ 7 Memory at fafee000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K] I'm using the ndiswrapper 0.9 or .10rc1 with Slackware 9 and a 2.6.7 kernel. I was initially battling things within wpa_supplicant, but when I saw that the MAC address for our AP is wrong, I decided to visit here! Problem #1: iwconfig wlan0 XXXXXX does not work. I can't set the ESSID, channel or AP Mac address. It runs the command OK, but ifconfig wlan0 always reports back with the default: wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00 Bit Rate:54Mb/s Tx-Power:25 dBm RTS thr:2347 B Fragment thr:2346 B Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality:100/0 Signal level:-10 dBm Noise level:-256 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:1030235 Missed beacon:0 Sample commands are not recognized: iwconfig wlan0 channel 6 iwconfig wlan0 essid test I've also tried adding "commit" and it makes no difference. Problem #2: We have an access point with a MAC address of: 00 40 96 49 49 61 Both wpa_supplicant and iwconfig wlan0 scan report the MAC address differently on the last four digits: iwlist wlan0 scan wlan0 Scan completed : Cell 01 - Address: 00:40:96:49:35:20 ESSID:"acadia-test" Protocol:IEEE 802.11b Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Quality:0/0 Signal level:-54 dBm Noise level:-256 dBm Encryption key:on Bit Rate:1Mb/s Bit Rate:2Mb/s Bit Rate:5.5Mb/s Bit Rate:11Mb/s Extra:bcn_int=100 Extra:atim=0 Extra:wpa_ie=dd160050f20101000050f20201000050f20201000050f201 According to our networking guys, there is no such access point with the MAC address shown by iwlist and wpa_supplicant. The ESSID is correct for an AP they recently set up for me for testing this. Obviously if we can't talk to the right MAC address, nothing is going to work. The AP is a Cisco 350 model. The first part of the MAC seems to be unique to this model. --Donald Teed

CANADA: Men's apparel market "primed for prosperity"
By Michelle Russell | 5 March 2014
Canadian apparel retailers should consider switching their focus to men and move away from the more saturated women's market if they are to get ahead, according to new data.
Research from Leisure Trends, part of global information company The NPD Group, reveals department store clothing sales for men aged 20-35 have soared 64% in the 12 months to the end of December, the largest channel increase over the past year.
The figures show apparel sales for this segment are up 18% across all channels, indicating a national trend that spells opportunity for savvy marketers.
On the flip side, the US$13.5bn female-focused apparel market remained flat in 2013 as it becomes saturated with more of the same while the men's fashion landscape becomes "increasingly exciting with the perpetual introduction of new products", the report noted.
"It's a new and exciting world for retailers as men become just as interested, if not more so, in the products that have captured the attention of women for decades," said Sandy Silva, fashion industry analyst at The NPD Group.
"Whether they're in the market for clothes, accessories, specialty creams or shaping undergarments, men can now adorn themselves with as many goods as their female counterparts."
The report concluded that the men's apparel market is "primed for continued prosperity", and provided this trend is more than a passing fad, Canada's fashion industry is poised for much success in the years to come.

Final Community Workshop - Re-Imagining Essex's Planning Governance 01/13/2016
After months of studying how planning governance in Essex works today and how it could be improved, the Working Group for Thoughtful Growth in Action (TGIA) presents its findings and recommendations.
The Working Group's recommendations will head to the Town Selectboard and Village Trustees in February 2016. The two boards will have a joint meeting in March to discuss the recommendations.

Lexington Technology Group, Inc. announced today that seasoned technology and IP executive Jeff Ronaldi will become the company's chief executive officer effective November 9, 2012. Ronaldi, who is currently a Lexington board advisor, would also become CEO of DSS, Inc. (NYSE MKT: DSS) upon completion of its pending merger with Lexington, expected in early 2013. Lexington's current CEO, Will Rosellini, will step down effective November 9, 2012 and remain an advisor to Lexington's wholly owned subsidiary Bascom Research.
"LTG is a platform for proven managers, and Jeff has been a part of the team from the start, previously serving as a member of our advisory board," says Lexington Chief Operating Officer Peter Hardigan. "We're very pleased that he now has the opportunity to lead the company, as he brings an unparalleled combination of general management and patent monetization experience to the CEO role. Jeff's experience at trial is integral to our success and his network, reputation, resources and access to deal flow are invaluable. We believe that this is a big win for both LTG and, if the merger is completed, for DSS shareholders."
Over the past two decades, Ronaldi has realized more than $160 million in return for $12 million in patent investments. Most recently he was CEO of Turtle Bay Technologies, Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Juridica Capital. In 2012, he was behind two successful patent verdicts: Shelbyzyme's $50 million verdict against Genzyme and a $20 million willful infringement verdict against Citrix Systems Inc. Previously he managed a venture capital group within the Fortune 500-company SPX Corp., where among other investments he managed patent infringement litigation against Microsoft Inc. that resulted in a $62.3 million verdict and ultimately settled for $60 million.
During the 1990s, Ronaldi managed a number of technology startup and fast-growth companies. He helped UUNET (now Verizon) go public and was instrumental in highly successful product development for the company. He took a division of Concentric Network (now XO Communications) from its launch to a 90-employee, $150 million run rate in 18 months, ultimately taking that company public as well.
"In many ways, leading Lexington is a perfect opportunity to leverage the two phases of my career: leading technology startups and monetizing IP," Ronaldi says. "One of the things that attracted me to Lexington is the quality of the portfolio. I've been monetizing patents for more than 10 years and I've had a lot of success. I expect this portfolio to be every bit as successful as any of the others I've managed."
Lexington's current CEO, Will Rosellini will remain as an advisor to Lexington's Bascom Research subsidiary and will continue to support ongoing R&D for Bascom Research's development of electronic medical records in collaboration with MedNest.
"I believe the Lexington model offers an incredible opportunity to catalyze technology development through the use of patent monetization," Rosellini says. "As a technologist first and foremost, I look forward to working with the team on development opportunities including the great work we are doing with Bascom Research."
With Ronaldi's appointment, Lexington will be headquartered in McLean, Virginia, where Lexington's subsidiary Bascom Research is already based. After completion of the DSS merger, Lexington Technology Group will become that company's intellectual property division.
Ronaldi's appointment as CEO will be discussed during DSS's earnings call on Tuesday November 20. During the call, DSS will also provide an update on its pending merger with Lexington Technology Group, Inc. ("Lexington"), which it announced on October 2, 2012.
DSS management will host a teleconference and webcast on November 20, at 4:30 p.m. ET to discuss the results with the investment community:
Time: 4:30 p.m. ET

Lexington Technology Group invests both expertise and capital in the development and monetization of pioneering technologies. Lexington's goal is to catalyze technology development within its investments and to reward those who take on the risks of innovation. The enterprise invests in companies that have developed important innovations but have not been fairly rewarded by the marketplace, where shareholder value depends on the company's ability to successfully monetize patented technologies. Its efforts contribute to an intellectual property market in which inventors are better able to profit from their inventions. More information is available at www.lex-tg.com.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Much of IT terminology is often misused and misapplied. Modernization and transformation are two such terms. They are often used interchangeably even though they mean different things and have very different connotations. Indeed, it is somewhat safe to assume that in IT any transformative effort is likely to also have a modernizing effect, and thus, we can see these as levels of improvement efforts. However, many businesses are being led to believe if they don't transform now they risk becoming ...

This post goes for all the book lovers out there! Here is a short list of books about Istanbul. The list is not a definite since there are many many books written about this city.
Orhan Pamuk: Istanbul: Memories and the City
The obvious, Pamuk's book about Istanbul and his childhood memories. It's one of my favourite books of Pamuk and I would certainly recommend it to you after your visit in Istanbul. You can also read it before, but if you are totally unfamiliar with the Turkish history and Istanbul, it might be a bit difficult to read it. An absolute must for all of you who would like to know how Istanbul looked liked twenty, thirty, forty (...) years ago. Nostalgic descriptions of old Istanbul.
