A new study says nearly half of Americans die -- less than 101000 dollars in assets according to the National Bureau of Economic Research 46%.
Of Americans have almost no housing wealth.
And rely almost entirely on Social Security benefits in the days before they die.
Which makes elderly folks largely -- prepared for any financial emergencies before they die.
Joining us now personal finance expert Larry -- -- he's also the author of the book people are idiots and I can prove that catchy phrase.
Larry you know the question is I guess you're not surprised because people who die would no assets lived it with no -- Right.
That's exactly right people who die broke probably -- broke.
They can't really is lack of preparation and lack of planning plus the fact that most people are just not good -- addition and subtraction.
They never took the time to add up what retirement was really gonna cost and subtract.
What it was gonna cost them -- -- how much money they had.
And when you do that you needed depth of the positive number most people -- in the end up relying on the government and Social Security.
The first thing people need to remember a Social Security is not enough.
You need to plan and save along the way -- need to become obsessed with saving and you need to do it long before you get in retirement.
Well that's -- -- good Larry but I gotta tell you know it's frustrating for a lot of people because you look at the market over the past fifteen years and I can tell you from firsthand experience my 401K is done diddly.
And the reason has done dailies because it takes years to build up and then two months the market -- it all out.
I mean people are frustrated because in this day and age it's difficult to save money.
It is difficult aside but that's also what you need to realize you have to have a diversified plant.
You need to have a good portion of your savings and just -- -- flashing cash is what I -- And most people don't do that they just don't have any cash on hand and you know another great way to make sure that -- planning for retirement is to get healthy.
It and you don't do that once you're retired you start getting healthy right now because one of your major expenses in retirement is going to be health care cost.
And the best thing you can do to -- all of that is to become -- peso through diet exercise get out but.
If you're smoking cigarettes -- done that package that you haven't is that -- a 4000 dollars you could say.
I got ten seconds -- -- they give me to do great things -- need to know about saving.
First of all adjuster -- style right now I know -- on that adjusted NASA retirement won't come at a sticker shot.
And then remember always -- at least of the same amount of money that you're expecting from Social Security 10% as a great place to start.
-- -- -- got to see you thank you sir.
Well a lot of travelers -- --

MOTHERHOOD and HAIR CLIPS
15 comments:
I'll admit. I have NEVER used yeast before. That tells you all the baking, or lack of, that I've done. I have some fall goals and making rolls, pizza dough, and bread are a few of them!!! I am excited!
Love that apron by the way.
Ya, I am learning everyday. Brinley is really good at keep me on my toes and helping me be more and more patient everyday. When Reagan gets to toddlerhood, you'll learn to pick your battles, to really ignore a tantrum (still working on that), and how to stop fueling the "fire" aka the tantrum. But anyways, you know I love ya and you're amazing!Ok girl thank you for that sweet reminder. I am the same way that I have to clean the house before I can cook anything! It is hard to be a mom and figure out a good balance. Let me just say even though you were rockin' the clip in your hair and maybe it wasn't your first option you looked dang good doing it!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, let's just morph together and we'll be the perfect wife/mom! :) I am the total opposite...I cook and THEN clean. And I'm much better at cooking than cleaning. I still haven't figured out how to keep the windows and mirrors from getting streaks! So sad! And you are doing an AMAZING job, Sadie! You have SO many people looking to you as an example! AND, next matter of business...you MUST share your french bread recipe!!! I've always wanted to make my own french bread, but it seems so intimidating!
ANNND, I totally would Skype with you...but I don't have Skype...or know how to get it for that matter...
P.S. I'm totally digging your kitchen colors...GORGEOUS!
P.P.S. I'll shut my yapper now.Wow, my husband wishes I were more that way, haha. I am lucky if I vacuum and sweep 2xs a week! I guess it's just a trade-off. People's priorities are different in life/marriage/parenting and that's why it's great that we're not all the same.
I love to cook and bake and do it every day, but I don't do everything from scratch! I still have those easy throw-together meals like everyone else, and they still taste just as great! Good for you for going the extra mile to make your hubby happy!!!- AnonymousAugust 19, 2011 at 3:37 PM
I love your blog! I am glad you posted this! I feel the same way about being a mom! You amaze me! You should post your recipes from this post!
ReplyDelete Man, can you please give me some of your OCD? I want to be like that but i have the hardest time wanting to cook and clean! I hate cleaning, I am learning to cook which can be enjoyable but not so much the clean up after park! I'd much rather sit and play with my almost three year old and soon to be born little boy all day!
any of your tips would be much appreciated:)he he he. *I* have not gotten to that point yet. And my kids are 9.5 and almost 8!! I try..I do. But internally, my insides are screaming, "a mess!!! clean it up!" Of course, I do let it go. I let the dirty dishes from breakfast sit out so we can run off to the pool and I, instead, attack them at dinner, but yes, i think about that dirty kitchen and my piles of laundry all. day. long!
ReplyDeleteThough I am not a mom yet, I think I will also have a problem with wanting to spend too much time cleaning. I am totally a clean freak and I judge other moms that let their house get so messy. But they are probably busy doing things that are more meaninful than scrubbing the floor. Like you, I hope to find that balance between keeping my house clean but still being spontaneous and having fun.

Plan for Celebrity-Stalking Paparazzi Drone Reveals New Roles for Unmanned Civilian Aircraft
Anyone following the news out of America's Af/Pak engagement knows that drones are being used increasingly – some say alarmingly so – to ferret out and eliminate militants along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. But if drones can track militants hiding in the Pakistani hills, why can't they track a celebrity in Hollywood Hills? A celebrity-photo agency is developing a camera-equipped paparazzi drone that could soon be tracking and terrorizing celebrities in public and at their homes.
As aviation goes, of course, drones are the next big thing. The military is training up drone pilots and purchasing unmanned aerial vehicles at unprecedented rates, and being the military they've drafted a fairly stringent set of rules for how those drones can be used. In the civilian space, those rules are far less defined. The FAA limits the domestic use of drones to those operated by the governent – that is, they're not cleared for commercial use.
But there is a gray area: recreational drone use. The FAA hasn't taken up the use of recreational drones, which can be purchased on the Web or built at home using open source designs available for download. The FAA suggests – but does not require – these drones stay below 400 feet, stay clear of airports and other aircraft, and otherwise practice common sense. But they're perfectly legal, and that loophole could provide lawyers a means to justify drone use for everything from airborne celeb stalking to the tracking of cheating spouses.
Of course, such behavior could ruin the lax recreational drone rules for everyone. Such use will certainly open up inquiries into privacy issues, and that in turn could lead to tighter, more concrete rules from the FAA or other regulators.
Then again, the door could swing the other way. With so much drone technology pouring into the marketplace – both military and civilian – the capabilities of the aircraft are expanding from streaming video to actually locking onto a specific target and tracking it through an urban landscape. The day might not be far away when small, unmanned aircraft sporting cameras and other sensor technology are a regular part of civil security measures (think London's street corner security cams, but mobile) or even used by parents to track and monitor children when they're away from the home.
Splash News, the celeb-photo agency developing its own drone is less concerned with security and more concerned with taking paparazzi off the street (where they are something of a public menace in their cars) and and into the skies. So while we wait for the civilian drone revolution, we should at least reap the benefits of a spike in celebrity sunbathing pics.

I see a niche market for anti-spy-drone tech. Think lasers with targeting that fry the image sensors of cameras on these drones. Think also, drones equipped with steel-net canons that can stalk these papparazi drones and shoot them down... and last but not least, drone sniper turrets on rooftops.
Let's busy...

"We Entertain When It Rains"
Jeesh ... I really do (now) wish to apply as a Signals Intelligence Analyst, with the FBI, the NSA, or the FCC !
I mean ... Imagine having the tedious job of "channel-surfing", amongst all the lascivious cosmopolitan hi-rise drone feeds ... And, could we please pass a law that all drones must be equipped with low-light HD . .. Fun!
I am your man !
blaxpear is right. Watchdog drones trained for attack, legally certified. They'll have to hash out the legal electronics or optics allowed for drones, probably in the Congress; and legal countermeasures as well. Right now someone can spy pretty efficiently for the cost of a few days' study and a few bucks at Radio Shack. The tech war has reached the populace in yet another medium.
Oh great, now every homeowner has to worry about his airspace and prolly pay a tax for thier own no-fly zones.
and this looks like another thing the secret service will have to worry about.
if people had problems with google maps, just wait for this.
I predict these will be prohibited except for licenced operators.
Is it hard to scramble all the frequencies use by model plane? Don`t need to be powerfull, a transmitter locate on the roof of the house we want to protect emit a low power scrambling signal and if the plane come at proximity it loose control. Some of the model plane use autopilot base on GPS, so GPS scrambler could also be use.
Well, it really is not that different than camera phones ... All the up-skirting and down-blousing, etc.
In Texas, we have passed a state law, for such acts, and the charge is called "Improper Photagraphy".
You can get up to TWO YEARS in a state prison if you are busted with any sort of voyeuristic recordings.
Live, private feeds are (apparently) not as bad, so long as no recordings were made. (some guy who owned a bikini shop, with a live feed from the dressers to his office, got off scott-free).
These things are visible, transmit RF, contain EMF's, might appear on radar and probably make some noise. They are detectable, so I would set up shop and wait... then deploy my own drone, (or RC jet equiped with LASERS !) and shoot it down. If it's too close, shotguns should work well too !!! Exploding model rockets... pet Raven... chase it with ultralight plane... high pressure water jet...

Nutrition Education
By now, your baby may be eating solid foods and may even show interest in trying the foods that other family members are eating. But babies at the Sitter stage aren't ready for table foods. Once your baby has started solids, continue to give your baby iron-rich infant cereal and pureed fruits and vegetables. At this stage, you may also want to introduce pureed meat or poultry and mixed purees. Just remember that breastmilk or iron-fortified infant formula should still be your baby's main source of nutrition.

* Average estimated intake. Your baby's needs may be greater or less than these stated; always follow your baby's hunger and fullness cues
The Feeding Infants and Toddlers Study (FITS) 2008 found that around 12 percent of babies age six-to-11 months are not getting enough iron on a given day. Iron aids in healthy brain development and is a component of hemoglobin which carries oxygen through the body. By around the middle of the first year, the natural iron stores which babies are born with start to deplete. Breastfed babies need supplemental iron and zinc at this time. Iron and zinc from infant cereal and pureed meats can help meet babies' needs.
Once your baby is over six months, you may want to offer 100% fruit juice to your baby. Start with 1 to 2 fluid ounces a day. Juice intake for older babies can be up to 4 fluid ounces per day.* If you choose to give your baby juice, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that you serve juice in a cup rather than a bottle.
Sweetened foods and beverages should also be limited in your baby's diet. Nestlé FITS 2008 found that 17 percent of six- to eight-month old babies ate a dessert, sweet, or sweetened beverage on a given day. Instead of giving your baby sweetened foods and drinks, choose nutritious options, such as pureed fruits, yogurt, and iron-rich infant cereals made with whole grains.
You may also want to begin introducing your baby to pureed meats—they are recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services) as one way to help prevent iron-deficiency anemia. It may take about 10 tries for her to accept a new food. Try mixing GERBER® 2ND FOODS® Beef & Beef Gravy or Ham & Ham Gravy into one of her favorites like GERBER® Mixed Grain Cereal or GERBER® NATURESELECT™ 2ND FOODS® SWEET POTATOES.
As your baby continues her solid-food journey, it's important to follow her appetite. Using the cues below can help you know when she's hungry and when she's full. It will also help your baby start to understand her own hunger and fullness cues.

Final PPP Poll From MA-Sen: Brown 51, Coakley 46 Newscom Evan McMorris-Santoro – January 18, 2010, 3:08 AM EST The final poll from PPP (D) in the Massachusetts Senate race shows Republican Scott Brown with a five-point lead less than 48 hours before voters head to the polls. Brown leads Democrat Martha Coakley 51-46 in the poll, with four percent of respondents undecided. The PPP poll seems to confirm what political observers and other recent polling has suggested in the final weeks of the race: Brown has the momentum to win, but the race is still to close to call. PPP polled 1,231 likely voters in Massachusetts over the weekend. The special election to replace Ted Kennedy in the Senate will be held on Jan. 19.

Talula's Garden
Online Reservations
We were lucky to have an excellent server during our pre-theatre dinner. I had heard that they are known for their cheese plates. But neither my friend nor I were experts on cheese so we asked our server to make-up a plate. She asked us some questions about what we prefer then made us a plate. It was absolutely perfect. We liked all six cheeses that she chose. Our main courses were delicious as well but we were filled up by the cheese plate. I had tuna and my friend had ossabuca. If I go again, I would have a cheese plate and an appetizer.
The service here starts at the door and balances attentiveness with warmth in a way that makes the dining experience a please. The ambiance is urban farmhouse chic mixed with the industrial lighting from restaurants like Craft. The food is portioned appropriately and outstanding in presentation on simple earth toned plates. The smoked salmon appetizer is a fanciful play on an everything bagel and lox; it's also life altering-ly good! The scallops in the bouillabaisse are cooked to perfection. Light, smokey gnocchi accompany the delicately cooked bluefish and open up to a tremendous depth once consumed. The chef's choice cheese board was a great way to start the meal. Talula's allows you time to relax and experience a wonderful meal!
Very good restaurant - particulary the cheese plate, appetizers, and dessert. Love the incorporation of seasonal items throughout the menu (pumpkin marscapone cheesecake - yes, please!) Very attentive and knowledgable servers. Outstanding cocktails. We had a great dinner here. Just be sure that your table isn't in the bar area - this is a bustling area that could really detract from the experience if you didn't want to sit there.
Found it at travel advisor as #3 in Philadelphia. Amazing food. A pleasure to your senses. Great service. Waitress very knowledgeable and nice. Restaurant is a must to go while in Philly
Warmly welcomed, attended to wonderfully by all wait staff involved, delightful cocktails and great wine list...and last but not least...an amazing array of top-notch food choices....who could want for more? The tasting menu was tempting but we chose to eat our way through every course possible and enjoyed the manageable size of our choices. Don't miss the sweetbreads if available and a must-do is a cheese course which was utterly delightful. Loved the vegetarian choices and the wonderful "sides". Can't wait to return and try more. Seating outdoors during warmer weather will be magical.
WE had the tasting menu, which was a delightful bite of fall. The staff was courteous, knowledgeable and made a real effort to make my husband's birthday dinner special. They offered a complimentary glass of champagne, and recommended a terrific Austrian wine to go with the meal. I would have given the food 5 stars except one of the 8 courses, the squab, was undercooked--however, they quickly deducted a portion of the price to accommodate that, and apologized. A tiny blemish on an otherwise delicious meal. Excellent service and a pleasantly surprising outcome. Would definitely come again.
Great recommendations from a trusted friend lured us to Talula's Garden. The Garden area is one of the prettiest I've seen, but will have to wait till warmer weather. Inside was beautiful too. It is modern but warm- while SO many restaurants try to be all modern with hard surfaces (probably called clean lines) they are acoustically awful. Not so here! The server was knowledgable, helpful & had an excellent sense of when to show up. I was concerned that the menu was too 'interesting' but not so. The fig & celery salad, which I don't think sounds so great, was: great! And huge. I will go back & will recommend to others.
From the moment you enter the restaurant until your departure, it's a wonderful experience. The wait staff is knowledgeable about the food and very attentive to your needs. From the "World Travel Cheese Collection", to the Muscovy duck and confit main course, to the pumpkin cheesecake dessert, everything was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. There was a large group seated nearby, but the acoustics provided us with a quiet experience.
The food was great as was the service. They actually remembered that someone in our party in the past had a certain type of food allergy and verified that with us. We were really impressed with that level of customer service - rare these days.
Brought my business partner from Scotland to Tahlula's Garden. Everything was outstanding and he was very impressed with the food and ambience. He travels all over the world and found Tahlula's Garden to be an absolute memorable dining expereience.
Had a very special dinner at Talula's Garden. The restaurant is beautiful and the food even more so. The menu is thoughtful, varied and adventurous without being risky. The only downer was the smore's dessert with smoked ice cream - because smoke flavor ruins ice cream. The rest of the meal was spectacular and I cannot wait to go back.
It was my first time at Talula's, and I must say it's definitely in my Top 5 Best restaurants in Philly, if not THE best. Great service, amazing food, and very romantic overall. I'm very glad I found this place, and without a doubt, I'll recommend the restaurant to anyone. The price level is somewhat high, but it's worth it!
The trout was cooked perfectly! Excellent cheese options. Overall the experience was very nice. We have already recommended the restaurant to several people.
never been before. People rave and It was worth raving!!! Food excellent. Loved loved the cheese plates they are a must. Loved the trout. !!!!! Everything was presented nicely and the ambiance is very upbeat.
Best food, best ambiance, best service, best restaurant in Philadelphia!!!
Talulas Garden never disappoints- the food is always seasonal and delicious, the cheese plate and the knowledgeable, friendly, but not overbearing staff will keep us coming back. The "Romantic" was a delicious sparkly drink to kick off a great meal!
Everything we ordered was delicious. I could have eaten several more of the brioche rolls. The watercress salad on which the chicken liver mousse was served could have been a starter in itself. The shrimp and monk fish in my seafood cassoulet were fresh and cooked just right. I don't know enough about root vegetables to identify them, but they were very tasty. My friend's pumpkin over risotto with root vegetables was very good. The melted chocolate cake s'more with buttermilk ice cream was not overly sweet and the marscapone cheesecake with pumpkin was light and had the perfect flavor for the season.
Wonderful 8 course tasting and wine pairing. What a treat.
We had made reservations indoors, but decided to sit on the patio. It was a little windy, but quiet and comfortable. The food was outstanding and the service was great!
On a trip to Philadelphia, I researched and dinned at 3 of the top rating restaraunts. This was the last place we dined (Sunday brunch) and by far our favorite! Our parting thought was that we wished we had eaten all of our meals here!
I was visiting my cousin in Philly, who suggested we should go to Talula's. AMAZING pancakes. We wanted to order it once again but we were already so stuffed with all the other great food we had there! I would come back just to eat at Talula's- REALLY!
My new favorite brunch spot to impress out-of-towners and locals alike. Gorgeous garden setting made a warm Fall brunch simply magical. Exemplary brunch tasted even better with seasonal specialties, the barefoot contessa meets the best of martha stewart decor and impeccable service to boot.
I loved the relaxed feel of this restaurant. Food was exceptionally good. Everything we ordered was good especially the Trout in the main course and the pan fried veal in the appetizers. The cheeses were good too. The only thing I was not impressed was with their dessert list. The servers were very polite and friendly.
We dined here with another couple before seeing a show at Walnut Street Theater. The service was excellent. We started with one of the cheese plates. It's fun to have the waiter describe each one. We each ordered an entree and shared the roasted mushrooms side dish. Each entree was delicious. This was my second visit and will definitely be returning.
The seasonal brunch menu was fantastic. Tatiana the server was a pleasure. The waitstaff was friendly. I could not however understand how our appetizers almost ended up at a table that had already completed their meal. Another disappointment came when we had to wait with hot plates of food in front of us since we were hungry while our dining companions had yet to receive their pancakes. I could understand if they ordered an extremely complicated dish but pancakes are not. Other than these two events I enjoyed eating here overall. I will be back in the summer to try eating outdooors becasue my companions weren't interested in that. The decor and garden are so beautiful.
We have eaten at this restaurant a number of times, on Saturday nights, but this time we found Sunday night to be quieter and less crowded. We love the large selection of cheeses, and always start off with a cheese tray. My dinner was the best yet-a melt in your mouth lamb shank (osso buco) perfectly seasoned. My husband's brook trout was equally delicious with a unique blend of roasted vegetables. The food is made for people who appreciate quality ingredients and the blend of seasonings that give each dish their unique flavor. They have a good selection of reasonably priced wines, but we usually prefer to pay the $25 fee and bring our own wine. Our server was knowledgeable about the selections and very attentive to our needs.
The waiter explained how food was prepared and the staff made sure everything was what we wanted and expected. The staff explained what foods would compliment each other and why.
The food is fresh & tasty. Coming from Australia I do find American food quite "stodgy", so it was really nice to have fresh & light food. $350 inc tip, for 3 people, starters & mains each. Cheese to share & 2 bottles of wine, tea and coffee. Is actually very reasonable for the quality of food. Service was also very good, not in your face. Nice pleasant atmosphere.
Delicious food good wine and a friend in visiting from Chicago made for a great night! Was a little noisy and we sat near the door which prompted my friend to move next to me to keep from getting bumped constantly. Can't wait to get back!
From entering the vestibule to exiting at the end of dining the experience was excellent. The hostess, coatcheck person, server, and especially the server who brought our cheese plate were all extremely friendly,courteous and helpful. I wish I remembered their names so I could cite each one. The food was exquisite from first to last taste. We hated for the meal to end. We will definitely return and I have heartily recommended you to our friends.
Very creative menu of food with great diversity of farm fresh items as well as imported specialties. Very knowledgable servers. Great location. This is a new favorite for us.
Loved this experience. Wonderful ambience - gorgeous - like a secret garden. Food was lovely, service was very personable and engaging. Will certainly recommend this to friends visiting Philadelphia.
I went here for the first time on my birthday and it is now one of my favorite Philly restaurants! The food is amazing,AMAZING! The menu had a lot of variety and was interesting so it was fun to pick different things and share them. One of the dessert menu options is a miniature milkshake and cake but I was really just craving a milkshake--- the restaurant was happy to accommodate and made me my very own birthday milkshake! The downsides are that the space is not intimate but it's still beautiful. The noise level is kind of loud.
My wife & I had dinner here a couple of nights ago, and we absolutely loved it! The food combinations are extraordinary & delicious and the service is out-of-this-world! A true gem of a place. You'll love it!
some of the dishes were excellent, others good but too rich and salty. pricey.
We found the staff to be a wealth of information for the complex dishes. We would highly recommend for a special occasion o
Excellent and special attention to detail. We dined with vegetarian friends and they tweaked the menu to suit them. Much appreciated.
This beautifully situated restaurant did not disappoint. The ambiance along with the delicious food made a most enjoyable experience. Service was extraordinary.
Uniformly great food, tastefully done. One place where multiple ingredients don't just amount to a nondescript spicy taste. Here, the combinations are thoughtful and delicious -- tastes you don't find elsewhere. Portion sizes are just right. Service is personalized, but not annoyingly fawning. Wines by glass are VG. Plenty of scintillating variety of both appetizers and entrees. We have returned, and will return.
We had Sunday brunch here for the first time. Excellent all around. Great menu, really interesting starters and entrees' Cheese plate and fruit plate to start. Great Eggs Benedict, omelette, steak and eggs, other options. Great Bloody Mary and good sparkling wines. Also pre-ordered a birthday cake that was really nice. Ice cream was awesome as well. Service was excellent. Great place.
The food and service are one of the best I had in the city in awhile. I highly recommend this place to anyone you will not be disappointed.
This is an amazing find. Food was great and the drinks were top notch. The cheese monger's mystery mix cheese plate is a great pick for an appetizer and the main courses were very well balanced from beginning to end.
Bistro food done to perfection. Knowledgeable wait staff. Overall terrific dining experience.
This was our second time at the restaurant, and everything has been fabulous. We went with friends who are also great cooks, and they also raved.
Thoroughly enjoyed our late meal on a weekday evening. Had one of the six well composed cheese coards as a starter. Beautifully done, cheeses were mostly fantastic, especially truffle tremor. Followed by vegetable dishes - roasted mushrooms were stellar and escarole was lemony, not acidic. Simple fresh food prepared really well, with nice wines. you can dine well without even touching the entree list. Service attentive, not overbearing.
The food and drinks were fantastic and the service was impeccable. Everyone in our group really enjoyed the evening.
This is our first time to this restaurant. The food was phenominal. Our waiter was wonderful. I ordered vegan from the kitchen, though not on menu. They did a fabulous job. I would like to come back when the weather is warmer since they a beautiful garden seating.
Wonderful experience. We went on a Monday after a holiday weekend so it was not real busy. The staff was very friendly,helpful and professional.The food was delicious and the atmosphere was relaxed, laid back and not pretentious. We will definitely return
Our group has dined at Talala's Garden many times before and as always the food and service was outstanding. We love it there!!
The entire experience was wonderful. From the ambience, to the waitstaff and the food. Would recommend this highly. Would love to go back in the spring to enjoy the garden area!

This tuner with adjustable-angle display keeps your instrument sounding sweet.
The AW-2G comes with an adjustable-angle clip pad that attaches securely to all guitar headstock or other flat instrument surfaces. The AW-2G's display can be moved to either side of the clip, and when positioned behind the headstock, is not visible to an audience.
The tuner's double ball-joint allows multi-angle positioning with far greater mobility for the display section. An internal backlight lets you easily see the display, even on a dimly lit stage, and the backlight can be switched between Soft mode for low illumination and the high-brightness Auto mode, or turned off for well-lit situations. The energy-saving Auto mode automatically switches to the low-power Soft mode when no sound is present.
The AW-2G has a tuning range of A0 to C8 and a full complement of solid tuning functionality. Special markings indicate pure major third and minor third intervals for authentic consonance. The Calibration function accommodates a variety of concert pitches. Users can select either the internal mic or the vibration-sensing Piezo sensor for optimum response, which ensures stable tuning even in a noisy environment. A Meter Reverse function allows tuning from any viewing angle. The tuner is powered by a widely available CR2032-type lithium battery (included), and with the backlight off, the battery life is an amazing 150 hours. Auto Power Off maximizes the battery life and a Memory Backup function is also included.

Look of Love for Apple iPad
Now Available
The Birmingham Museum of Art is pleased to debut The Look of Love for the Apple iPad. Visitors can use this app in the Museum, and a nationwide audience can download it, free of charge, through the Apple App Store.
The app was created to support The Look of Love: Eye Miniatures from the Skier Collection, an exhibition curated by Graham C. Boettcher, PhD, the William Cary Hulsey Curator of American Art at the Museum, and the first major exhibition of lover's eye jewelry, on display at the Museum from February 7 - June 10, 2012.
Lover's eyes are hand-painted miniatures of single human eyes set in jewelry and given as tokens of affection or of mourning, created in England during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
The diminutive size of the precious objects--many are less than an inch wide--begs for closer examination by the viewer, but the delicate nature of the jewelry and inlaid watercolors require them to be displayed in cases under glass. The iPad app allows visitors to see these tiny, intricate objects at up to twenty times their actual size. They may also view images of the backs of objects, many of which are adorned with human hairwork, enamel decoration, or personal inscriptions commemorating a love or loss.
Need some help?
Basic App Controls:
Touch the button in the top left corner to access the main menu.
Each menu item corresponds with a case in the gallery. Touch a menu item, and you will see a list of objects. Each object has a number, which is listed on the labels within the gallery cases. To see an object, touch its name.
Zoom in on the object by pinching your thumb and forefinger out.
To see another object, click on its title in the menu.
In the top right corner, you may encounter 3 icons:
Touch the i to get more information on the object.
Touch the arrow to see more images of the object.
Touch the video camera to see how the object opens.
You may also access a specific object by typing its object number (listed on the gallery label) into the search box in the top right corner.

This bag is a real bargain. Well made out of sumptuous leather. The bag's complete lack of embellishments and logos gives it a sleek elegant look. Very much a classic, appropriate for women of all ages and stages. I highly recommend this bag, especially for ladies who do not like all kind of glitter, bells and what not. I bought this bag in "avocado" to use on a day to day basis. Lovely color, adds some "punch" to any outfit. I am the Director of Nursing for a Home Health Agency. I am in the office, in the community, seeing patients in their homes, teaching a class, all on the same day! This bag is perfect to hold my needs for the whole day! It is easy to "reload" at the end of the day. As for size, perfect. Big enough to hold my daily necessities, but not big enough to allow junk to accumulate. My only criticism, and the reason I gave this bag four instead of five stars, the liner is really cheap. I think the bag's quality makes it worth the investment to have it relined when the cheap liner "goes". I'll be back for one of the brown shades. And one for my daughter. as well.
I ordered this bag as a rebellion against crappy, cheap looking, bling-blingy purses that seem to have permeated the market lately. This looks like "nothing special" which was exactly what I wanted - there are no worthless zippers to nowhere, no fringe, nor enormous metallic logos that make you look like a K-mart-shoppin' Paris Hilton. The straps are sturdy and a good length - it fits on my shoulder fine, might be just a tad to long for holding by your side - the purse is large, but not ridiculously so. It holds a lot of "purse stuff" - wallet, makeup bag, anti-bac, etc - as well as the occasional bag lunch or "take home work" files. The snap closure is my favorite thing ever! My only complaint (and this is my own fault) is I got the burgundy, which is beautiful, but severely clashes with my largely purple and brown shoe and jacket wardrobe.
This bag is wonderful. It has two compartments which is perfect for keeping my wallet and other personal items sperate from my work stuff. Big enough to fit a date book, notebook and file folder, but it doesn't look bulky. Also has a large zipper area in the middle which I use for small items to avoid digging through the large compartments to find them.
I love this bag. Lots of room, and looks great. It really needs more pockets. There's only one side pocket and a place for sunglasses. But the main problem is it stinks. I know it's the leather, but maybe it's the quality of the leather because the smell hasn't toned down in the 6 weeks that I've had it. And it's not the pleasant leather smell. My 3 yr. says he smells poopy whenever my bag is near.
This purse was bought as a gift for my assistant - who was desperately in need of a business travel purse. Had to be big enough to carry paperwork, sturdy enought to take the weight of lots of paper/books etc., secure enough to keep her personal effects out of sight and away from prying hands, rough enough to handle not-so-gentle travel, presentable in a business setting - and still pretty. So far so good - fits the bill, and my assistant loves it. The avocado colour was just great - fun enough to give a little levity to business - but not fluffy enough to undercut gravitas. sensible construction - practical.
High quality handbag. Excellent value for the price. Am very pleased with this item.
A nice leather purse. It's a nice size with a cell phone pocket that has a velcro strip to hold the phone in the pocket. The interior is roomy with a large zippered section dividing the interior in half. It's easy to keep organized without having too many separate compartments. You can smell the leather which I like. It's hard to find a nice leather purse for this price!
This tote is great. I love the softness of the leather. It seems well made and I have been using it daily for a few weeks. I like it and would buy it again.
I love this bag! It is the perfect size for me, not too small or too big. I hope to get one or two more in different colors.
This leather handbag is fashionable, practical, and functional. It is perfect as an everyday purse or as a small tote bag. The cell phone pocket is useful for lipstick, pen, and the cell phone with the Velcro closure. The middle zippered compartment is fabric but it is handy to store my wallet and my tablet and a change purse. The perfect bag for any outfit. Nice quality of leather. It is made for normal wear and tear of daily use. Big enough for daily toiletry items. And a book or two if you wish to carry them with you to the doctors office, etc.

closeAurora Duct Testing
AIR CONDITIONING & HEATING: Why is duct testing important? Studies indicate that 10%-30% of the heated or cooled air is lost--along with the money spent to heat or cool that air--through leaky ducts. Properly sized, installed, and sealed duct work will make your heating and cooling systems significantly more efficient. Energy loss is not the only concern. Duct systems can also involve the comfort of your family, employees, tenants, or customers, as well as your indoor air quality. Testing the ducts will locate leaks or damage and focus repair work in the right areas. A properly operating heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system will help reduce overall energy use. How do you know if your duct system is in good condition? The most reliable and cost-effective way to find out is to have a duct test performed by a qualified HERS rater using the proper test equipment. Duct testing is the process of using calibrated mechanical equipment to measure the amount of airflow that is lost through the duct system when it is at normal operating pressure. While some joints or seams may have only small leaks, other sections may be completely disconnected. Duct testing can indicate the relative leakiness of the ducts and help determine whether the duct system should be sealed, repaired, or renovated. When to test? Duct testing is strongly recommended when a new heating and/or air conditioning unit is being installed. If the existing duct system is leaky and inefficient before the new unit is installed, it will still be leaky and inefficient after the new unit is installed--unless the ducts are tested and sealed by a qualified contractor. It does not make sense to install a new, energy-efficient heating and/or air conditioning unit unless the duct system is also energy efficient. Duct testing is also recommended when a diagnostic tune-up is performed on a heating and air conditioning unit. A diagnostic tune-up can improve the operating efficiency of the heating or air conditioning unit itself, but the overall efficiency will still be less than adequate if the duct system is not in good condition. A duct test is necessary to determine leaks, needed repairs, and/or renovations. Duct testing can be performed at any time, however, whether or not new energy efficiency equipment is being installed. It is not unusual to find that sealing, repair, or renovation must be performed to complement a comprehensive HVAC installation.

Should Lake Zurich Switch to Lake Michigan Water?
The village of Lake Zurich is facing a costly decision regarding the future of its water supply.
The village board learned during a workshop earlier this month it would cost $43 million to pay for Lake Michigan water, which would include constructing a $19.4 million pipeline from Arlington Heights to the village and $10 million for pumping facilities and storage, according to the Lake Zurich Courier.
If the village sticks with groundwater, it would cost about $16.5 million mainly to install a Water Remediation Technology and become compliant with "future regulatory standards," according to the article.
Officials try to keep drinking water safe
CATAWBA ISLAND — If toxic algae continues to plague Lake Erie at high levels, some water treatment plants might not be able to guarantee they can provide drinking water, officials said.
Last summer, toxin levels in raw, untreated water were higher than Ottawa County Sanitary Engineer Kelly Frey had ever seen.
Ottawa County's water treatment plant added extra chemicals and ran additional tests to make sure the toxin had been removed from the drinking water. The toxin, microcystin, is released when the harmful blue-green algae in the lake dies.
Although the algae is gone until next year, Frey is still concerned about what the plant will do to address the problem next summer.
Low Cost Child/Teen Life Jackets Available for Camps, Schools, Non-Profit Programs
ALEXANDRIA, Va., December 18, 2013 - Non-profit summer camps, schools, or local non-profit organizations providing on the water programs for kids have a strong need for safety, and having right-sized life jackets for kids is key. Now, the BoatUS Foundation's Kids Afloat Program is offering kid/teen-sized, vest-style life jackets for just $5 each. However, supplies are limited and groups need to apply online at www.BoatUS.org/Kids-Afloat by February 28th, 2014. The Foundation will then choose those applications that best match program guidelines and post them to the Foundation's website and Facebook page for public voting in the spring. Those with the most votes will have the opportunity to purchase the deeply discounted life jackets.
The life jackets are Type-II and Type-III vests - the most comfortable non-inflating type available today that normally retail for about $30 each.
Learning from the Chesapeake's algae problem
CATAWBA ISLAND — Like Lake Erie, the East Coast's Chesapeake Bay is a major attraction for beach-goers, boaters and nature enthusiasts.
People come from across the country to vacation at Chesapeake Bay, inland from the Atlantic Ocean and surrounded by Maryland and Virgina. Its an estuary where fresh and salt waters meet, and its watershed covers six states and Washington, D.C.
Visitors from across the country fish Lake Erie for its prized walleye and visit its islands, beaches and attractions.
Early warning program battles frog bit, other invasive species
A Department of Natural Resources (DNR) early warning program is preventing the invasive species frog bit from destroying native aquatic plants.
"Essentially, frog bit is an invasive plant that's come into Michigan from Canadian waterways," said Holly Vaughn, a DNR wildlife outreach technician. "It's roughly the size of a quarter or half dollar, it looks like a mini- water lily but forms really dense mats of leaves on the surface of the water and ends up choking out native species of plants."

Coast Guard conducts ice rescue training, offers winter safety tips
GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- Snow and freezing temperatures this week provided ideal conditions for members of the U.S. Coast Guard participating in an ice rescue training course.
Members from Coast Guard response crews throughout the Great Lakes region met in Portage this week for a cold, three-day session.
Great Lakes crews haven't been called to rescue a person from the ice yet this winter season, according to a Coast Guard news release. Yet, the latest wave of freezing temperatures across the region prompted the Coast Guard to remind people to practice caution when enjoying recreational activities on or near cold and frozen water.
Dunkirk to use state grant for improvement of waterfront
DUNKIRK – The City of Dunkirk and its northern Chautauqua County neighbors stand to benefit from three state grants announced this week by the office of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo.
The grants include $1 million for the northern Chautauqua County water district and $65,000 in planning funds for the Lake Erie Waterfront Revitalization Program.
Another grant – $540,000 – will go toward an ambitious seawall and bike path project in the City of Dunkirk.
Mayor A.J. Dolce said the funding for replacement of the seawall along Lake Front Boulevard will not only enhance safety but make the area a destination.
"We think our plans to make the waterfront area a destination with splash pools and other recreational activities really impressed the decision makers," Dolce said. "The new seawall will be attractive and functional, but the added playground and family recreation areas will make the area more popular than it is now."
Scientists Turn Their Gaze Toward Tiny Threats to Great Lakes
NORTH EAST, Pa. — The newest environmental threat to the Great Lakes is very, very small. Tiny plastic beads used in hundreds of toiletries like facial scrubs and toothpastes are slipping through water treatment plants and turning up by the tens of millions in the Great Lakes. There, fish and other aquatic life eat them along with the pollutants they carry — which scientists fear could be working their way back up the food chain to humans.
Scientists have worried about plastic debris in the oceans for decades, but focused on enormous accumulations of floating junk. More recently, the question of smaller bits has gained attention, because plastics degrade so slowly and become coated with poisons in the water like the cancer-causing chemicals known as PCBs.
No Asian Carp DNA Found in Water Samples
Water samples collected from Sturgeon Bay last month and analyzed for evidence of Asian carp DNA have come back negative, state officials announced.
"We're obviously happy that the results came back negative. It's a good indication that there are not Asian carp in the bay and underscores the importance of continuing our efforts to keep Asian carp out of the Great Lakes," says Mike Staggs, fisheries director for the Department of Natural Resources.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and DNR had collected 150 water samples from Sturgeon Bay on Nov. 12 and 13 as a follow up to a single positive detection of Asian carp DNA in samples collected from the bay earlier in the year.
"Sampling was completed as part of a Great Lakes wide early detection program intended to monitor for many different invasive species, including Asian carp," says Todd Turner, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Assistant Regional Director for Midwest Fisheries.
Go lake trout! Native fish overcome seemingly 'insurmountable' challenges in Lake Huron
A fish that was almost wiped out in the Great Lakes is making a comeback in Lake Huron.
Lake trout are suddenly doing what biologists have been trying to get them to do for more than 40 years: They're making babies.
Lake trout used to be a mainstay of Great Lakes commercial fishing in the first half of the twentieth century. The Lakes would produce 15 million pounds of the fish every year.
Port Huron Museum selling artifacts from the SS Regina shipwreck
PORT HURON, Michigan — More than 25 years ago, Wayne Brusate sifted through piles of matchsticks and crates of supplies to recover bottles, spoons and coal inside a sunken package freighter at the bottom of Lake Huron.
Now, those artifacts from the steamship Regina are finding their way to homes and museums in the United States and Canada, according to the Times Herald of Port Huron ( http://bwne.ws/INLhDn ).
Brusate, a commercial diver who discovered the Regina in 1986, donated 50 to 60 legally recovered items from the SS Regina to Port Huron Museum, and additional artifacts to the Great Lakes Maritime Institute and the Dossin Great Lakes Museum in Detroit.
Spike in oil pumped under Straits of Mackinac worries Michigan lawmakers
WASHINGTON — Michigan's U.S. senators want federal regulators to assure them that a 60-year-old pipeline that runs through the Straits of Mackinac is safe, despite a recent spike in the amount of oil moving through it each day.
U.S. Sens. Debbie Stabenow and Carl Levin, both Democrats, sent a letter today to the federal Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration raising concerns about Enbridge Energy Partners increasing the amount of crude oil running through Line 5 by 1.2 million gallons of oil a day.

According to Staten Island two weeks in city did and finally the power back up for -- -- but many of the homes.
Well they're completely destroyed it's not just gone to Molly Line.
In Staten Island -- our families there are trying to co pay Molly.
Pena out it wasn't very difficult situation for the families -- cedar avenue this -- -- could still see the buildings are standing but inside.
If they haven't already been -- a lot of the homeowners have spent the day.
Up pulling all of their belongings pulling the walls down.
We can we've seen volunteers you throughout the day pulling out giant piles of debris the sanitation crews have gone through a pulling up some -- degree -- debris.
We can actually -- -- if you can swing around just behind us at some of the volunteers that were just here a few moments ago helping.
In the households.
Heading off the truck they have plenty of work to do -- -- and working all day at this 171000.
People have signed up for FEMA assistance in this area alone.
And they're still waiting in words just how much money they're going to get how much money their insurance companies are actually going to be able to give them.
We've also seen all sorts of different charity organizations different food trucks moving through an a lot of regular people -- been down here as well the folks in these homes.
If they're hurting right now but they say they're very grateful for all of the assistance that they've been receiving.
Tough workout here -- -- a lot.
More work to come back to you.
Thank you -- very very much Molly Line now to Long Island where despite protests this weekend 74000.
Are still.
Without -- two weeks after -- utility officials say most will be back up and running by tomorrow but try telling that to.
Democratic in New York State assemblyman.
Still goals that are some would end.
I guess you still without -- and still looking for answers out of the extent.
I'd say fourteen I mean belied the response has been slow in the coordination with utility companies and the city of new York and -- -- -- government entities has been has been for.
Now Governor Cuomo ahead -- Cuomo has been particularly tough on on utility companies in the last few days saying that -- -- that is no excuse for this.
But why is it happening I mean is it just a bit coordination.
What what what do you know.
Why I first give the the governor all the credit in the world I think he's right to hold the utility companies accountable and I think he's actually right calling for an investigation.
What I would say is that the coordination between utility companies and the and the city of New York has been absolutely nonexistent.
And that you know.
They're not talking to each other there's been no coordination and unfortunately the people on the streets -- suffer.
Sort wearing day fourteen today -- and to think about being fourteen days without power.
Is is unconscionable.
-- there are a lot of areas as you know also without power more coming back on every day but I'm wondering.
And I'm not -- use similar -- the governor this point but could be a case.
Just throw the utilities under the bus for what has been a bad public.
Response to this.
I think it's time for accountability is gonna come I think everybody agrees that when when our families are safe when when the residents of the neighborhood are out of harm's -- The time for accountability will come and and those who we'll need to be held accountable well.
I trust in the governor that that that we're gonna get this thing right we're gonna do right when the time is right but for now.
That's thousands of people who are still -- cold at night there's thousands of people are still hungry.
You know you turn on the TV and there's a rosy picture but but to live in this neighborhood it's like time -- -- we are.
Really struggling for -- to aid in the assistance and I hope to rebuild but it's going to be a long slow process.
All right -- -- and we'll be watching very closely thank you -- Thank you.

On a visit with a friend this museum has a great selection of Roman archaeology including some unique pieces of leather shoes (worth a check). Indeed the staff were really helpful and offered to explain a few of the exhibits which led to a tour around the museum. If your in the area, I would definitely take a visit.
went to see the Mackintosh house exhibition. took my breath away !! amazing pieces . I managed to have a tour guide to myself which was wonderful. Nigel was so informative and let me just take my time and get a good look at everything. was just wonderful.
A quaint museum set within the University, a great mix of objects from fossils to columns from the antonine wall, plus weird animals
Most unexpected and very interesting museum to visit. Not one of the largest but it is packed with things to entertain and inform everyone from young to old. Learned a lot on my visit and have been back since. The medical content is extremely interesting. Beautiful surroundings and lovely building too.
Something for everyone and set out in a splendid building. I did not do it justice because there was just so much to see on the site . But well worth a look
Superb collection of not only old masters, iconic paintings, dinosaurs, etc, it has the MacIntosh exhibit which is second to none. Well worth visiting and spending some hours there.
The MacIntosh House, which is owned by the Hunterian, is definitely a "not to be missed" item. You do have to go on a tour, but the one we experienced was very interesting. The second floor of the house is particularly breathtaking. And, the museum is free (there may be fees for special exhibits).
this free entrance attraction is a key part to any visit to Glasgow. the collection will not be to everyone's taste, consisting largely of classical old masters but it has some iconic pieces and is representative of a particular type of collection. it has also introduced me to Joan Eardley's work for which I am grateful!
stunning exposition, Scottish dinosaurs (yes dinosaurs were in Scotland) bit is amazing. worth to spend every minute there and read all information.

From October 2001 through October 2007 every week, except when it was raining; I set up tables, banners, chairs, food, educational material, and created a space for public dialogue on key issues. In November 2007 (when my weekly radio shows began), I began doing this on a monthly basis, on the 11th of every month, in solidarity with other activists worldwide (See http://www.truthaction.org.)
We ask the public three questions and write down their responses-
What do you think/feel about the events of September 11th and the U.S. government's response?
How could we defuse terrorism?"
How could we create a safer/better world for our children and all children?

Rep. Antenori appointed to LD 30 State Senate seat
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010The Pima County Board of Supervisors today appointed (by 4-1 vote) Republican freshman LD 30 State House Rep. Frank Antenori to the LD30 State Senate seat recently vacated by Jonathan Paton, who resigned on Feb. 22 to run in the CD 8 U.S. House Republican primary. District 4 Supervisor Ray Carroll made the nomination, as LD 30 lies in his district. Carroll noted that Antenori had the "overwhelming support" of the LD 30 precinct committeemen/women at the recent meeting, in which he got 71 of the 77 votes on the first round of voting.
Democrat District 5 Supervisor Richard Elias stated that he was voting no because Rep. Antenori had "publicly threatened the Board (of supervisors) for political gain", and was "heading Arizona in the wrong direction."
Antenori, a former "Green Beret", was elected to the Arizona State House in 2008 and had also been a candidate for the CD 8 U.S. House seat in 2006. The other Republicans nominated by the LD 30 precinct committeemen (and women) for this vacant seat on Feb. 28 were former 2 term LD 30 House. Rep. Randy Graf (served 2000-2004), and LD 30 Precinct Chairman Ted Vogt, a 3rd year law student at the University of Arizona and a former Captain in the Air Force. Graf has been reported to be a part-time consultant for the proposed Rosemont Copper Mine by Augusta Resources, and was formerly a golf pro.
With one of the two LD 30 House Rep. seats now being vacated by Antenori, a similar appointment process will be occurring to fill Antenori's house seat.
Antenori will serve Paton's unexpired term till November, when the general election for LD 30 State Senate will determine the winner. He has already announced his candidacy for this state senate seat, along with former 4 term LD 30 State House Rep. Republican Marian McClure
(who recently served from 2001 to 2008). McClure lead the fight against the pay day loan industry in Arizona, to sunset on June 30, 2010. She was termed out of her state house seat and ran unsuccessfully for Arizona Corporation Commission.
The winner of that Republican primary on August 24 will likely face Democrat candidate Dr. Todd Camenisch, a UA science professor and Catalina Foothills governing board member. No other candidates have announced at this time. LD 30 encompasses parts of East Tucson as well as Green Valley, Sonoita, Elgin, and Sierra Vista.
According to the Pima County Recorder's office, these are the number of registered voters by political party registration:
32,125 Democrats
44,385 Republicans
718 Libertarians
125 Green
29,043 Others (Independents)
106,396 Total
3/4/10 update from Antenori campaign: He is resigning today at 12:30 p.m. from his State House seat, will be sworn in at 1 p.m. to the State Senate.

text: The Challenge For Cloud Computing Consumers are driving cloud adoption far faster than enterprise IT can accept. Analytically speaking, consumers are driving this incredible rate of change for enterprise employers. The challenge one faces is that cloud computing is leading an enormous change in the enterprise IT environment, which can broadly be called the "consumerization" of IT, and this phenomenon has somehow to cater for the needs of consumers. The problem that follows this "consumerization" prodigy is that while consumers are wandering around with their personal clouds in their pockets, a whole lot of that cloud belongs to someone else;
