SharePoint Document & Item Reordering 1.3.1221.4
SharePoint Document & Item Reordering is a new and powerful tool to customize lists and libraries according to the users' preferences. Imagine users need to access an item every day, or to prioritize lists according to specific requirements that cannot be met by SharePoint default sorting patters.

Today I'm excited to have Rebekah Purdy here to help me celebrate my new site. I had the opportunity to sit down with Rebekah in a virtual cafe, where she showed up wearing fairy wings and clutching a wand. What was that? You haven't had the pleasure of meeting her yet? Well here's your chance. Everybody, this is Young Adult Author Rebekah Purdy—the awesomeness behind the books Staking Shadows and My Dad's a Paranormal Investigator: Seeking Shapeshifters. Rebekah, this is…well, everybody! Now let's get to peeling back the curtain and seeing what makes her tick.
Moira: Let's break the ice shall we? If you could go on a dream date with three people who most influenced your writing, who would they be?
Rebekah: Okay, as many people know, I have a problem with counting (hehehe). So here are 5 instead of three: Wilson Rawls and Ann M. Martin for capturing my attention in 4th grade and instilling a love for reading. R.L. Stine and L.J. Smith for introducing me to YA Thrillers/Paranormal/Horror when I was in high school and making me want to write books. Lastly, Suzanne Collins for inspiring me to want to be a better writer.
Moira: I said three. Not one for following the rules apparently. Fine. I can work with this…just don't make it a habit. What genre do you write in, and why?
Rebekah: I write YA Fantasy/Paranormal. I think it's because I've always loved the thought of faraway lands and the fantastic. A place where the obscure is the normal.
Moira: I guess your faux pas is forgiven, but only because I'm a huge fan of the obscure, faraway, and fantastical. How long were you writing before you received your first contract for publication?
Rebekah: Hmmm…like 6-7 years (mind totally blanked out—LOL). But yeah, definitely a few years.
Moira: A few perhaps, but they've produced some great stories. Speaking of producing great stories, do you need to be in a specific place or atmosphere before the words flow?
Rebekah: Not necessarily, however, I do tend to write better when it's dreary and stormy out, or if I'm at the beach, listening to the waves crashing in.
Moira: Ha! When I'm at the beach I'm thinking about drinks with little umbrellas, surfers, and relaxing. What's the strangest source of inspiration you've found for a story?
Rebekah: LOL—um, actually it was a spam email I got. I'm hoping to actually write that story later this year.
Moira: Proof that spam can be beneficial (and no we aren't talking the canned variety). When you aren't being inspired by spam or dreary weather, what do you like to do in your spare time?
Rebekah: Watch football, soccer, camp, write, sing, hang with my kidlets, watch movies and TV.
Moira: For a fan of the obscure those are very normal spare time occupiers. Let's see if we can shake things up a bit. Name one thing readers would be surprised to learn about you.
Rebekah: I spent a few years in the US Army and graduated with Honors from Advanced Individual Training (for both the course work/physical fitness).
Moira: Nope. Not obscure enough…though it is a great accomplishment. Still, I want something more. Do you have any tattoos or piercings?
Rebekah: My ears are pierced, and believe it or not I have a tattoo of a crescent moon/star on my ankle (which I got when I was 17).
Moira: Ears?! I'm trying to get to the deeper darker side of Rebekah Purdy and you give me pierced ears! Sheesh. You don't play fair Ms. Purdy. Sooner or later I'm going to figure you out. If you won the lottery tomorrow, what would you spend the money on?
Rebekah: What wouldn't I spend it on? LOL. No, but seriously, I'd buy everyone in my family/my hubby's family a house (or help pay off an existing mortgage). I'd set money aside for my kids. I'd also send some to my friends as well as donate money to the local schools and libraries in support of literacy.
Moira: Well I can't knock that. Literacy is definitely an issue I think we can all get behind. Which household chore do you abhor and why?
Rebekah: This is a tough one. But I'd say laundry. I don't mind washing it, but I HATE folding it. It's like the socks take 2 million years to pair up.
Moira: Agreed. I always thought they were joking about the dryer eating socks when I was younger. Okay, one last attempt to get some dirt on you to be used at an undisclosed time and place for my own benefit. Do you have any guilty pleasures you feel comfortable sharing?
Rebekah: Crushing on celebrities (LOL): Ian Somerhalder, Johnny Depp, Taylor Lautner…
Moira: You can have Taylor. :) The other two we might have to discuss. Which of your characters would you most/least like to invite to dinner and why?
Rebekah: I'd probably invite Maggie, Seth, and Ima over to dinner. They're all funny/quirky characters and I absolutely LOVE a good laugh.
Moira: I can see that as being one rowdy and hilarious dinner party. One author, dead or alive, and you get to have a one on one with them. Who would it be and why?
Rebekah: Suzanne Collins, because I think she's brilliant.
Moira: Well should you ever get the chance for that one on one, let me know. Might have a few questions of my own to throw into the pot. Every author has a moment of brilliance in their writing world. Something that just strikes a chord with them for one reason or another. Name one scene you go back and re-read often because you like it so much.
Rebekah: This is hard because I have a few. But probably the scene where my main character Maggie is trying to convince the guy she's had a crush on since elementary school that she already has a boyfriend.
Moira: Ooh, that's definitely a good one. If you could have one talent besides writing, what would it be?
Rebekah: Ohhh…making movies. Like using real special effects and stuff.
Moira: The Fairy Godmother Files: Cinderella Complex is the first in a series about Maggie Winters. What gave you the idea for the series?
Rebekah: Actually, I was kinda playing the what-if game one day. What if a teen found out she was to become the new Fairy Godmother? What if her first assignment was someone she completely loathed, and on top of that the guy she's crushing on might be a part of that happy ending?
Moira: The 'what-if' game is one of my favorite brainstorming activities. So, is there anything top secret or special you'd like to share?
Rebekah: Hmmm…not at the moment. But I suppose people might like to know that I have several Star Wars songs on my MP3 player (hehehe). May the Force be with you! Oh and I like to do character voices (Yoda, Stitch (from Lilo and Stitch).
Moira: Not exactly what I had in mind there young Padawan. In closing, tell us a bit about your latest release (& share an excerpt for those who aren't yet familiar with your work)
Rebekah: The Fairy Godmother Files: Cinderella Complex Blurb:
Sixteen-year-old Maggie Winters can't think of anything more exciting than junior year. There's her first prom to look forward to, she can drive, and most important Connor Prince has finally noticed her. But unfortunately so has the school snob, Katrina Melville, who goes out of her way to make Maggie's life a living hell. If that's not enough, Maggie's grandma has decided to retire, which doesn't seem like such a big deal. That is until she finds out her grandma is a Fairy Godmother, and not just any Fairy Godmother. The Fairy Godmother, as in Cinderella, pumpkins, and mice. And she has informed Maggie that she's next in line to become the new Fairy Godmother.
At first Maggie is excited, the whole getting wings, flying (or rather trying not to crash), and a wand that lets her grant wishes. It's like being a superhero, without all the action, explosions, and spandex. Then she gets her first assignment, Katrina Melville, her nemesis. And if that doesn't make her want to poof herself into oblivion, she finds out that part of Katrina's happily-ever-after is Connor Prince. Life is so unfair. Even worse, she can't tell her two best friends about any of it and they're getting sick of her disappearing acts. Then there are the dangerous creatures, called Grimms who will stop at nothing to keep the happy endings from being fulfilled, even if it means destroying the Fairy Godmother responsible. With time running out, Maggie has to make this wish come true or it will ruin the fates of everyone involved, and open the world to darkness beyond imagination. Maggie will soon find out what it truly means to be a Fairy Godmother—and it isn't all about princes, gowns, and wings, but something much more.
"Now comes the fun part." Grandma opened the sliding glass doors leading onto the balcony. "You need to learn how to fly." She tugged a lounge chair next to the railing. "Just climb up here and leap off."
Not that I didn't love my grandma, but she'd lost her ever-loving mind. No way in the world did any of my plans include jumping to my death. I took a step back. "I don't think that's such a good idea."
"It's like riding a bike."
Maybe now was a good time to remind her how much I'd fallen down while learning to ride my bike. Taking a deep breath, I glanced at the ground below. It was a long way down. My pulse buzzed like a warning bell in my ears. Insane didn't begin to describe this idea. More like freakin' idiotic. And yet, I climbed onto the chair, then up onto the railing. I felt like a suicide on the ledge of a skyscraper.
"Think of your wings." Grandma stood next to me, her hand resting on my calf.
Squeezing my eyes shut, I imagined my wings. The back of my shirt ripped and my wings expanded. Ugh, I loved this shirt. "Okay, I'm up here." I kept my focus straight ahead. As long as I didn't see the ground, I'd be all right, or at least I hoped I would be.
Grandma shoved me. I flailed off the balcony. She was trying to flippin' kill me. In two seconds I'd be splatter on the lawn.
"Flap your wings," she called.
The ground came at me at an alarming rate. Then, to my amazement, my wings kicked in, brushing air. Like a butterfly, I shot forward, gliding.
"Make sure you're steering yourself." Grandma's voice sounded far away.
My lips tilted into a smile as I flew higher. Cool night air kissed my cheeks and whipped through my hair. I felt so free. I felt so—smack—a low-hanging tree limb whapped me in the face. Ow, crap! My face stung and my eyes watered. Right. Need to watch where I'm going. A strong gust of wind billowed in, catching my wings and tipping me backward. Like an out-of-control kite, I half fell, half glided toward the ground and into the side of a car.
Beep. Beep. Beep. The car alarm blared. I rubbed my arm and head. Now I knew how road kill felt.
"You okay?" Grandma hollered down.
"Sure, just give me a second to pull the fiberglass out of my face." I stood and wiped myself off.
Grandma laughed. "You'll get the hang of it. Maybe you should fly home tonight. Give yourself a chance to get used to your new wings."
Sure, great idea. Then maybe I'd fly into the grill of a semi-truck or a hunter might shoot me out of the sky, thinking I was a big duck or something. And they'd stuff me like a turduken—only I'd be a turMaggen. Yeah, not a great visual. Because either way I looked at it, something or someone was going to be shoved into some place they didn't want to go.
What had I gotten myself into? Grandma smiled and gestured for me to fly back up to her.
A Fairy Godmother. Me. Maggie Winters. The new Fairy Godmother. And I had no idea what I was doing.
Moira: Well that was definitely a treat! Thanks for letting me torture you Rebekah and hanging out with us today. For all you voracious readers out there, you can learn more about Rebekah Purdy and her books over at http://rebekahlpurdy.wordpress.com/ .
Thanks for stopping in. One copy of Cinderella Complex is up for grabs so ask your questions or just comment!

CD (Item 10293) Partners In Crime (Italy), Late 60s/Early 70s — Condition: New Copy
A wonderfully groovy set – every bit as great as you might guess from the title and the cover – and the very first installment in the now-legendary Mood Mosaic series! The set's one of the few to bring together tunes from the groovier side of the spectrum at the end of the 60s – work from British, French, American, and German sources – all awash in a great blend of funky, easy, and pop-oriented modes! There's a nicely trippy feel throughout – and titles include "Hascisch Party" by George Garvarenz, "Kiss This" by Claude Denjean, "Acka Raga" by Shocking Blue, "Mas Que Nada" by Luiz Enriquez, "En Melody" by Serge Gainsbourg, "Love For Sale" by Marian McPartland, "Batucada" by Phil Crewe, "Marins Armins Amant Ou Maris" by Michel Legrand, and "Sitar Beat" by Klaus Doldinger. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

"confort e tranquillita in pieno centro"
ottima location isola privata incantevole con divisione zona bambiniRecensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Tutto davvero perfetto!!!!"
Siamo tornati da un giorno e abbiamo ancora nel cuore i colori, i sapori e le sensazioni che ci ha lasciato Aruba, un'esperienza indimentiabile. L'hotel è stato perfetto per i nostri canoni, inizialmente avevamo prenotato a Reinassance Marina ma poi abbiamo chiesto di essere spostati all'Ocean Suite perchè ci piaceva di più come sistemazione e c'è voluto […] solo un momento per fare il cambio. Il ristorante Capin's Corner è meraviglioso vista mare, cibo delizioso e personae molto gentile, qui facevamo colazione e cena. Anche il Solè per uno spuntino è davvero fantastico. Abbiamo provato anche l'aquarius buffet molto buono e personale davvero molto gentile. Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile e l'Ocean Suite ha delle stanze molto spaziose e accoglienti e un letto davvero molto comodo. L'hotel è defilato rispetto ai grandi alberghi e questo lo rende molto tranquillo e rilassante. L'isola privata è davvero un paradiso pieno di iguane e con i simpatici fenicotteri, ci sono anche molti pesci per gli amanti dello snorkeling. La barca passa puntualissima ogni 15 minuti circa e gli accompagnatori sono molto gentili e davvero bravi. E' stato tutto magnifico abbiamo anche avuto la possibilità di fare il check out ritardato che è stato davvero molto comodo. Consigliamo di noleggiare un'auto per girare l'isola è molto comodo e piuttosto economico. Speriamo di tornarci presto perchè siamo stati davvero bene e a nostro agio, come a casa, ma in un paradiso terrestre!!!! Continua a leggereRecensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia

"Dated hotel, Poor location"
If you like airplanes flying over all day while you try to relax at the pool or private island, stay here! If you like staying in a hotel that literally makes you feel like you are stuck in the 70's and is very worn inside (and I checked multiple rooms) and you want to spend an outrageous nightly rate compared to better places on the island--stay here! Honestly, […] this hotel is very old and not located near any relaxing areas in Aruba or even on a nice clear beach. Planes constantly fly over. The rooms are aweful--old tubs, dingy carpet, low ceilings and ceiling tiles in bathrooms. And at the rates demanded for at this hotel, you can stay at the Divi Phoenix or other Marriott properties for much less! DO NOT STAY HERE. Continua a leggereRecensioni obiettive Hotels.com

"Lovely downtown Hotel in Orangestead!"
Very nice downtown Hotel (Renaissance Aruba Marina Resort) in Oranjestead. Great location with a beautiful, private beach island. The public areas were spectacular (lobby, boat launch, fitness center, shopping mall, restaurants (including a Starbucks), nice casino). Would love to see the hotel rooms (bathrooms) updated a little more and mustiness eliminated […] in the hallways and in the rooms, Overall, a very nice hotel with a very accommodating staff.

"Hotel is ok, staff is great!"
I would only recommend this hotel to a friend depending on the quality hotel they are looking for. If they don't plan n spending a lot of time in the room, this hotel would be good. If they're looking for a more upscale nicer room with amenities, stay some place else. My toilet leaked twice and had to be fixed. the maintenance guy was very nice though. […] The staff in general was great! Not really sure if I'd stay here again. But would definitely go back to Aruba. Continua a leggereRecensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Great for couples"
This was our 4th time at this hotel. There was an error on our room location but they fixed it immediately. You will love the staff. We have been going there since 2004 and it is like coming home because the staff turnover is little to none. We can't wait to go back next year!Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Aruba vacation"
Cleanliness of rooms was not the best. Smelled of mildew. Staff was not very friendly.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
First and foremost, we love Aruba and can not wait to return. The Renaissance is a beautiful resort. The location was great with everything right there and it has a very low key atmosphere. Things were usually quiet by 10:00 at night. So that was the time to go next door. The casino is fun and drinks are on the house. Nice touch. Being right downtown […] you could walk to all the shops. The Renaissance has its own mall, however it is all designer retail stores so not everyone can shop there. One thing I did notice is that many of the people who worked in the market next door seemed tired and uninterested in the people or their job. If I could give the hotel any advice, I would say to bump up the brunch at the outdoor restaurant. If I could give you any advice it would be to make SURE you know where your room is. It is very big with two hotels across the street from each other. We requested an ocean view and they put us in the hotel across the street with only a pool, no balcony, and no view of anything. We did upgrade to the other side but for an additional cost and had a lovely room with a great view. Continua a leggereRecensioni obiettive Hotels.com
"Great hotel for families and couples"
We have been coming to this hotel for 4 years in a row. We love the family atmosphere and couples would also enjoy this hotel. This hotel is very well maintained, however service is a bit slow, but so is the island, seems to be the culture here. They have an island you take a boat out to that runs every 10 minutes or so. The island is WONDERFUL! They […] have a family side and an adult side. They also have a beach and pools at the hotel. Good for small children. This side of the island doesn't seem as touristy as the other side. Feels like you get away from the hustle and bustle. This will relax you if you feel stress of any sort. Casinos are easy to get to if you like to gamble along with high end stores located just in walking distance with restaurants. Taxis are easy to get also. Favorite restaurants on island are Madam Janette and Barefoot just a taxi ride away. For pizza Casa Tua just around the corner. Continua a leggereRecensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia

First trip to Aruba and we were very pleased with the Renaissance Resort. We had the all inclusive package and the restaurant choices were excellent. The high light of this resort is their private island with beautiful lagoon beach, restaurant and accommodations.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Great hotel if you like to shop"
Great being above the mall. No mini bar. There is no privacy in the rooms unless you close the blackout curtains. Small and limited complimentary toiletries. Not enough wall sockets to plug things in. No in room wifi. Overall a good hotel, but nothing amazing.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Stay on the Family side!!"
We visited on on honeymoon and booked the Marina side. The room was small and there was construction going on outside, definitely not what we wanted. After speaking with the front desk they stated we could upgrade for an extreme amount, which was unacceptable to us. We ran into the general manager by accident and after explaining our situation, he upgraded […] us at no charge to the other side with the private beach and it was AWEsome! No complaints after that!

"aruba airport closes at midnight"
I arrived into Aruba at 24:04, just afternight and the airport was closed!!!!!!. So Tiara airlines took us over Curacao Island, the local airlines never respect timing, it was delayed for 2 and half hours. They send us to a hotel one hour away from the airport, and obviously, needing to use the aircraft to start the new day, they pick us up at 6:30, […] after 3 hours sleep!!!!!!! After waiting 2 hours in the following morning, I decided to buy a ticket with another airline to get to Aruba and attend my business meeting. The Renaissance Hotel respected my reservation and I enjoyed the Hotel very much, it is excellent. But, Tiara Airlines and the airport personal coud not care less for the tourists; I wish someone from the government could read these lines and change things around, in their benefit!!!!!!!

"Very nice eclectic adult resort."
The Renaissance is located in downtown Aruba in the middle of all that the happy island has to offer. It is surrounded by many restaurants, shops and upscale stores. There is a casino inside the hotel but my favorite was the outside heated pool that sits on a landing where you can actually see the cruise ships dock. The view is wonderful. The rooms […] were small but the bed and bedding were very comfortable. I fell instantly asleep each night. The hotel is nice for an adult only resort and the lobby area was very eclectic and lively with a huge wall screen where videos are played at night. In the evening the lobby is lit with many blue lights around the pool, bar & eatery. I like to shop, so I was thrilled that the mall was attached to the hotel. The only downside to this resort is that there was no beachview or free wifi in the rooms. I was not able to walk out onto the beach each day and evening. instead, we were provided with daily boat rides to a private beach where pink flamingos roamed. I did enjoy the ride and the beach.

"November 2012"
I have been going for many years and they always seem to be doing something to upgrade the facility. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful. the only issue is the bathroom and in particular the tub was kind of small.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Very outdated"
The room was a big disappointment I would expect such a condition in hostel not 4* hotel chain, especially the bathroom is very bad. Rooms are in need of immediate renovation. Day before our leave some construction started around swimming pool area there was no note about this nor letter from Management analogizing for the inconvenience which is regular […] procedure in other hotels. Amenities are also not up to standard of 4* not as mentioned on their web side. The positive side is nice beach and location in the city center. However the beach is next to the airport so if you don't like hear noises from planes go elsewhere. Overall I would come back if they renovate and keep 4* hotel standard.

It was overall good, if you like being down town and not directly on the beach. They have there own private Island wich was nice. But when you had thought you booked the Raddison and you end up at the Renasance not much of a comparison on this island. Go to the radison. Food was average at best.

"marina needs remodling."
Hotel is ok. Marina hotel need major bathroom remodling. Tub lamination is chipping,caulk is coming off and molded. Everyone I spoke to had the same complains. Now the suites are nice and are remodeled. They have a private beach which is really nice. Overall hotel would be perfect if they would upgrade the rooms.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Not the place for me!"
The room smelled musty and the bedspread was wet. The bed sheets would not stay tight under us and it was a terrible nights sleep. The water turned cold in the shower after just a few minutes and we had a view of the inside of the building and starbucks while on the beautiful island of Aruba.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Won't return"
Having traveled extensively in the Caribbean and stayed at many resorts, we found this property to be very dated, small and inconvenient. Room was small and bathroom was just way too small - not even a stand-alone shower.Recensioni obiettive degli ospiti Expedia
"Would not recommend at this time!"
This hotel was a major disappointment. The lobby and public areas were beautiful, but the room was extremely old and dated. There was mold in the bathtub area, and it was rusting. Most of the views this hotel offered were of the lobby or construction ongoing in the city. We chose this because of the adults only area, as we were here for our anniversary, […] and we have stayed at other Marriott hotels before, but this was not up to the usual standards. We had heard it was to be remodeled in the next year or 2, hopefully sooner. On the plus side, we did ask to be moved to the suites across the street, and they were very nice and gave us a nice ocean view room...and charged us for the upgrade...not cheap! This hotel was much nicer, but still could use some improvements, such as attentiveness and speed of services, but that could be Island time. The pool bar/restaurant mgr was very nice, and sincerely was concerned about our opinions. Overall, would not recommend the adult Renaissance adult tower, suites were nice, but pricey.

The experience was a solid 4! loved the hotel but it is a little old and well it is what it is a nice 4 star hotel.. I think the staff maximizes the existing structure as well as anyone could based on the facility...You will not be disappointed unless you want a posh resort, this place is as close to posh as possible without major room renovations...The […] shopping amazing, the boat to the private beach super cool as it comes right into the lobby..the Blue super awesome with the infinity pool..The only negative to this hotel is it's proximity to the nicer beaches about an 11 dollar cab ride each way...but let's be honest here that is the only bad thing, which is really not that bad sense the private beach for the hotel is very easily accessed by the boat that shows up all day every 15 minutes...

Not that all hotels don't need renovation but now they are doing construction and it is a complete eyesore. I would not stay here until construction is complete. They started on our 3rd day there so I would imagine it will be a while before they are finished. Also the bathrooms are so rundown. The wallpaper was falling off the wall and the tub was horrible.

Really, that's a question a person has to discover on their own. "Epic Rock Records." There's quite a few. Lyric wise I think Kurt Cobain had a good idea with blending lyrics that didn't necessarily go together. It wasn't the meaning behind his lyrics as much as it was the flow of the lyrics, sang on all the right parts. Music wise... Maybe Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin. It's a double album that employs various styles of music and considered by many "their last really great album" and also a favorite among a lot of Led Zeppelin fans. It has light, shade, heavy, soft, Rock, Blues, Funk, Folk, "Indian" music, sober music, drunk music, etc. Plus the song Kasmir is an epic.
Just open up to various styles and bands you like. One day I'll listen to something like Pantera, the next day I'll listen to Kim Wilde or La Roux. Complete opposites.
Rivers definitely has never listened to Kurt Cobain.
Lol sorry for sniping at yaz, friend.
its their debut album. ska punk

Can people stop bumping this? I don't think Rivers even posts here anymore.
Also, I don't think Smashmouth is the type of influence he needs.

Furloughs, paychecks & pensions
By now, most federal workers know that should there be a furlough it will mean a 20 percent pay cut. But are their retirement benefits in danger too? Senior Correspondent Mike Causey says not to worry.
00PlanningBig JoeThe bottom line is this is about loyalty. Up to now the deal was you gave your worklife to the Government and in return they had your back. That deal has been broken for awhile, but now its to the point where it truly affects your life and everything worked for. My response has been I only work my required time with no free hours and no checking email at nights and on weekends. By doing that I have freed up about 10 hours a week that I now work at a part-time job. Its not the best part-time job, but I can easily pick up additional work on days that....I don't know.....Im furloughed and the impact to my household budget will be minimalized. Still working the same house per day, but now have a built in safety net that is seperate from my Government job and savings....35692{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }0Has Congress thought this out?MichaelFIf my hours are reduced 20%, that means I will be doing 20% less work. Or am I expected to work from home on my one-unpaid-day-a-week? If so, then Congress better think again. Working for the government without pay is illegal. Or is Congress unfamiliar with the laws they pass?35694{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }0First off...SpankyYour employer will be furloughing you, not Congress! Yes, Congress caused it, but they have nothing to do with how we are paid. You employer has a budget in the Operating & Maintenance. If they don't cut many other things, your salaray will be on the chopping block. And right now it is predicted to be once a day for each pay period from April till Sept. Some savvy and smart commands will find other ways to save and there could be no furlough. Commands and activities that feel their luxury travels and training are more important, consider yourself screwed!35710{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }35694That would depend on the commandwisenektFor those commands that have low civilian pay bills, then they can take sacrifices in other areas to try and save the civilians. However, for those commands that are 80% civilians, then good luck. But keep in mind that the decisions are made at a high level and if the high level says cuts, then there are going to be cuts, regardless of the individual command.35716{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }35710CAUSEY NEEDS TO DO HIS MATHmarine69...where in the heck does this guy get a 20% pay reduction from?? From where the sun doesn't shine when he's sitting down, that's where!! Maybe with less people around, he won't have much to write about and WTOP can finally release this guy to greener pastures!! Give us someone new, who knows how to knows how to investigate instead of repeating 'water fountain' rumors and making stuff up on the fly!! :(35702{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }0MARINE 69UmbratilisFedThank God we don't depend on Marines to read or do arithmatic. Causey says the pay reduction of 20% will occur during the furlough perid. Which is quite correct.35703{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }35702Should at least reconsider the savings bonds...LynneSome of the older EE bonds are paying more than twice the interest rates of banks and some older I bonds are paying well over 3% right now. Probably want to check the interest rates before you cash out and put the money back into a bank. You would also owe federal taxes on the earnings when you cash out but could continue to accumulate tax free if you leave them. Uncle Sam would probably be happy if you cashed in your older savings bonds!35714{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }35709

And to make this possible, simply making the world's greatest sleep products is not enough. We need to go to bed with a clear conscience too. That's why we always try, in any way we can, to contribute to society, protect the environment, raise environmental awareness, promote sustainable development ("aeiphoria"), and support personal growth for our employees.
We use our bikes as much as we can. Recycling rates at our factory reach 96%. We actively support non-governmental organizations and charities.

We always make sure that nothing we do leaves a negative footprint on the environment or society.

And we try to pass on our ideas and a healthy attitude of responsibility and comradery to everyone we meet.
We pride ourselves on being the makers of the best beds in the world. And we know that together, we can also make a better world. It just takes a little try.

Pension gender gap narrows – but only because we'll all be poorer
Last updated at 15:07, Friday, 15 June 2012
The gender gap is narrowing when it comes to how much money we're likely to have during retirement.
The difference between men and women is more due to male incomes falling rather than the fairer sex boosting their pension pots.
The typical sum that men and women expect to retire on in 2012, including their private, company and state pensions, has reached a five-year low of £15,500 annually, compared with £16,600 in 2011, Prudential said this week.
Women retiring this year expect to have a typical annual income of £12,250, around £5,750 less than the £18,000-a-year for a man retiring in 2012, according to the research.
The gender gap has been narrowing since 2010, when it stood at £7,400, something which the study said was mainly due to falls in male incomes.
Men retiring two years ago had an expected annual income of £19,600, while women were retiring on around £12,200 a year.
Ros Altmann, director-general of Saga, said women had consistently been the "poor relations" to men when it came to pensions, but Government reforms should go towards making the system fairer.
Dr Altmann said: "The fact is that, in terms of both state pensions and private pensions, women's prospects are worse. This is particularly the case for older women, since our pension system has adjusted in more recent years to be fairer to women."
When the state pension system was first designed, it was generally assumed women would be relying on their husbands' pensions.
Women are also more likely than men to have earnings below the minimum national insurance threshold, meaning they may have missed out on the entitlement to a state pension for those years of work.
Private pension schemes were also allowed to exclude part-time workers in the past, so women again lost out far more than men.
Nearly half of women surveyed by Prudential believe they will not have enough income for a comfortable retirement, compared with 40 per cent of men.
Low interest rates and quantitative easing (QE) have particularly hit annuity rates, which analysts say has resulted in more than a million pensioners buying an annuity which will pay less for the rest of their lives.
When they retire, workers use their pension pot to buy an annuity from an insurer, a decision which sets the size of their pension for life.
Annuity rates are linked to the yields on government bonds, called gilts, which have been dramatically reduced by QE.
Analysts have found that a 65-year-old man with £100,000 could have bought a level income of £7,855 in July 2008, but someone in the same situation this year would only receive an income of £5,923, a drop of just under 25 per cent.
Vince Smith-Hughes, Prudential's retirement income expert, said: "The pension gender gap appears to be narrowing, but there is still a long way to go.
"Not only does the gap remain stubbornly wide, but anticipated retirement incomes have this year hit a five-year low for both men and women.
"The practical steps that women can take to improve their retirement income prospects include maintaining pension contributions during career breaks and, if possible, making voluntary National Insurance contributions after returning to work."
The retirement gender gap was found to be widest in the south east, where women retiring this year expect to have £12,259 – £7,878 less income a year on average than men, who expect £20,137.
It is narrowest in the north west, with women in the region having an income of around £13,087 a year, compared with £15,632 for men, a gap of £2,545.

This time I wont write about my past, bad feelings, or love, although I do love my boyfriend dearly.
One of the things I enjoy most about being alone is not worrying about anyone else. Like I have the time and energy to spend on myself and myself alone. I would spend hours in the field up the road from my house right next to a church reading, listening to the birds, getting lost in my deepest thoughts, or just meditating with no thoughts at all. I feel like that's something I need to continue to do as much as I can. Being in a relationship restricts me from doing that as often as I would like to. Now with a deprived longing for mother nature I get out of mind sometimes. I get mad and uncomfortable at random times when my healing is the simplest thing in the world, but there's just no time and place for it anymore. Each day when that needs comes and I don't listen I feel as though I miss out on a part of myself, like I need to spend extra hours to catch up with myself from all the missed sessions.
