Outsourcing your chores isn't logical if you'd just waste the extra time it frees up.
This post comes from Trent Hamm at partner blog The Simple Dollar.
Most of this article applies to any situation in which someone hires someone else to perform work, whether it's paying someone to change the oil in their car or hiring a plumber to fix a leaky faucet. On that note, Connie writes in:
Your schedule seems overstuffed. Have you ever considered hiring an assistant or a housecleaner or something?
I have, actually. We earn enough right now to be able to afford hiring some additional help to take some of the hours off my shoulders, whether it's helping with the grunt work behind the scenes of The Simple Dollar or doing some of the household chores -- dusting, vacuuming, etc.
- Calculator: What's your time worth?
We haven't done it yet, for one simple reason. Let's say, hypothetically, that I hired someone to take care of 10 hours of grunt work a week. What would I do with those extra 10 hours?
Forget about the official 9.7% unemployment rate. A new study shows that more than half of American workers lost jobs, hours or pay.
A new study contains this depressing statistic: 55% of American workers have either lost a job, experienced a reduction in hours or pay, or were forced into part-time status at some point during the Great Recession.
But the Pew Research Center survey does have one tentative bright spot. The Washington Post reports:
More than six in 10 respondents say they expect their personal financial situation to improve in the next year, which the report called the rosiest outlook since before the recession began in December 2007. Similarly, 61% predict that the damage caused by the recession will be temporary.
The Pew survey also indicates that no matter how well the recovery goes, many are unlikely to borrow and spend as they did in those giddy, good ol' days. Also, many think the good times won't be as good for their kids:
Life's tough enough without paying for things you could be getting free. Here are some examples.
This post comes from Donna Gehrke-White at partner site Money Talks News.
Your mom always told you that money doesn't grow on trees. She's right, so why waste it. There are plenty of free things you can pluck from the Web as well as from libraries, parks, banks and other businesses.
Here's a look at 10 potential freebies.
Free pancake puppies, discount jelly beans and free food samples at Wal-Mart are among this week's deals.
It's time to fire up the grill and get ready for the July Fourth holiday.
Just in time for outdoor parties, Mark Bittman, The Minimalist at The New York Times, has come up with a list of 101 fast recipes for grilling. If you're looking for more recipes, check out all the offerings from our friend Kris at Cheap Healthy Good.
The freebie offerings for the Fourth of July weekend are sparse, so you may want to stay home and throw a big potluck dinner for family and friends. After dinner, you can probably find a free fireworks display in your town.
The perception that laid-off workers have gotten rusty or were substandard employees to begin with is on the rise.
This guest post comes from Frugal Zeitgeist.
I saw an article recently about how some businesses are increasingly unwilling to consider unemployed people as job candidates. I filed it away mentally as something to blog about once I got back in my groove, but never got around to it. Several more friends were laid off recently, though, so the topic's definitely been on my mind. A similar article appeared on CNN this week, so I'm not going to let this one get away.
The general synopsis is that it's an employer's market right now, and the stigma of being unemployed is increasing.
Sales are down and fees are up this year. Here are some tips on how to find the best deals.
This Deal of the Day comes from Kelli B. Grant at partner site SmartMoney.
Travelers hunting for airfare deals have their work cut out for them this year.
With more consumers scheduling vacations and airline scheduling cutbacks, the supply-demand equation has swung back in the airlines' favor, says Tom Parsons, the founder of BestFares.com. Fares are slightly higher across the board -- last year's $49 sale is $69 this year, for example -- with substantial increases on select routes, he says.
Sales are still out there, but on many, either the deals aren't as favorable or there are more restrictions on eligible days. "This summer, you're just going to have to poke around," he says.
Part of the equation: fees, which have continued creeping up.
Don't serve too much at a time, don't put foods they don't want on their plate, and don't fear the sippy cup.
This post comes from Carrie Kirby at partner blog Wise Bread.
I don't know about your kids, but mine just will not eat kibble. At least not the generic kind. Which means I have to shell out for pricey people food like vegetables, fruit and milk.
To be honest, I'm a better mom than I let on -- I even shell out for organic stuff for my three tykes. But then, so much of that pristine, chemical-free food ends up on the floor or being scraped into the garbage disposal that I wonder why I bothered.
Here are the guidelines we use at our house to try to cut the waste-to-consumption ratio when feeding the kids.
Divorce lawyers are finding a treasure trove of information on social-networking sites. Here's what not to share.
If we've said it once, we've said it a hundred (OK, maybe three or four) times: Don't put stuff on Facebook or any other social-networking site that can come back to bite you.
The latest proof of how damaging this can be: An Associated Press story related how divorce attorneys are routinely looking for incriminating stuff on social-networking sites, and they're finding lots of it -- most often on Facebook.

Amanda Bynes leaves treatment facility, does not appear in court
Amanda Bynes is a free woman once again.
The troubled actress has completed her in-patient treatment and is at her family's home for the holidays, according to People magazine.
"She's feeling better every day," her mother's attorney, Tamar Arminak, tells the magazine. "Despite the fact Amanda is no longer in a facility, her outpatient treatment is continuing. She's very happy to re-establish the loving relationship with her family that she once shared."
Bynes did not show up in court today, reports the Daily News, much to the chagrin of Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Diana Boyar. Bynes was scheduled to appear in court after throwing a bong out the window earlier this year. When Boyar asked Bynes' attorney, Gerald Shargel, why Bynes was not present, Shargel simply responded that Bynes was released from rehab but could not be in court. He did not go into further detail; prosecutors already knew she would not be there.
Bynes' next court date is set for Jan. 7.

Apple's loss last week was enormous. I wrote all that I felt I could in the blog farewell on this website to a man I was lucky enough to know a little and admire a great deal. Most are probably now profoundly sick of hearing either how much he was under or overestimated as a man and as a figure of his times. I never knew of any human beings whose achievements were exactly estimated.
The word "estimate" is the clue here. I only know that if I had grandchildren and they heard me tell of my meetings with him they would feel as I might if my grandfather had told me about meeting Henry Ford, Rockefeller or Irving Thalberg. It might be, after all, that Aldous Huxley overestimated Henry Ford by making the dystopian future in his Brave New World name its calendar after him.

Our Mission
Pajama Program provides new pajamas and new books to children in need, many of whom are waiting and hoping to be adopted. These children live in various situations including group homes, shelters and temporary housing facilities and are shuffled often from one place to another. Many of them have been abandoned, abused or neglected. Most of these children have never enjoyed the simple comfort of having a mother or father tuck them in at bedtime with warm, clean pajamas and a bedtime story. Some of the children we serve are living with their families below the poverty level, in
desperate need of food, clothing and shelter.
Our Story
"What are these?"
This was not a question from a child on a school trip to a museum, but from Maria, a child in a shelter who was holding for the first time a new pair of pajamas. When finally convinced that she could take off the clothes she wore all day and sleep in the pajamas she said, "you mean I can keep these for the rest of my life?"
From experiences like this, Pajama Program 501(c)(3), founded in 2001, was created. Pajama Program provides New Pajamas and New Books to children in need nationwide, many waiting and hoping to be adopted. They are youngsters who do not know the comforts of a loved one tucking them into a cozy bed and read them a bedtime story. Many have been abandoned or abused, most deprived of any love at all.
Pajama Program serves children throughout the nation with 62 Chapters in 32 States. Thousands of pajamas and books are being provided to children in desperate need of comfort and care. The pajamas have come to represent people who care and they offer security and love for a child abandoned in a shelter or waiting for a foster home. The books complete a nighttime ritual that so many of us took for granted… when Mom or Dad said, "okay get your pajamas on and I'll be right in to read you a story." Children in transition seldom hear these comforting words.
In order for us to expand our current programs, we need your support.

For the last couple of years, keeping Rye Playland rides like the Dragon Coaster open and maintained has cost taxpayers between $3 million and $5 million annually. But a deal signed Tuesday handed management of the Dragon and other rides over to a company that hoped to allow those taxpayer dollars to go to something else.
Aisha Siler's ridden the rides at Playland since she was a little girl.
"Because I just love bumper cars," she said. "It's a lot of fun."
But Siler and other visitors to Playland have watched more attractions disappear over the years than seen new ones pop up.
"I miss some of the rides they had there," grandfather George O'Connor said. "Because they broke, they took them away. The bumblebee? The turtle-chase?"
In the last decade, Rye Playland attendance declined by more than half. New management vowed on Tuesday to reverse that trend by keeping Playland open year-round and adding a waterpark, ball fields, and more with an injection of $34 million in private money.
"Sustainable Playland had the best vision for what a family park in the 21st century should look like," Westchester County Executive Robert Astorino said.
The deal calls for Sustainable Playland Inc. to give the county both a base fee and an annual payment to hopefully help it pay off its $32 million debt on Playland.
"To save the park, we needed to come up with a vision that would preserve the traditions but also lift the financial burdens to running the park off our taxpayers," Astorino said.
For Playland's guests and county leaders, the park represents not only a summer getaway or a losing investment with the temptation of redemption, but also an 85-year-old piece of history.
"I used to mooch tickets from the boats when the boats came here," O'Connor the grandfather recalled of his childhood. "I asked the people when they got back on the boat: Can I have your leftover tickets?"

(WHAS 11)-- Authorities and animal rights advocates announced one of the largest multi-state dog fighting raids in U.S. history.
After a three year investigation, 367 dogs were seized in several southern states.
They're now in the care of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Ten suspects were indicted on felony dog fighting charges.
Authorities also seized firearms, drugs and more than half a million dollars in cash.
The U.S. attorney said the defendants were betting between $5,000 and $200,000 on individual dog fights.

Beyoncé is all about giving back. The singer recently announced that she's partnered with the Prince of Wales during the U.K. leg of the Mrs Carter Show World Tour, in an effort to raise cash for The Prince's Trust charity, which benefits disadvantaged youth.
To assist the U.K. charity, the singer's global campaign #BeyGood is encouraging fans to make a three euro, or $4, donation via text or online . As a reward, charitable concertgoers will receive the chance to be selected for a seat upgrade to an exclusive VIP area. They will also be given an official #BeyGood sticker at The Prince's Trust donation site set up at each venue.
"As a young child I was blessed to have the support of my family who encouraged me to reach for my goals. So many young people don't have this," said Beyoncé in a statement. "I am honored to partner the #BeyGood campaign with The Prince's Trust to help young people beat the odds and create better lives for themselves."
Martina Milburn , chief executive of The Prince's Trust, explained how the donations will affect the organization's efforts.
"As a longstanding ambassador of our charity, Beyoncé understands that, every day in the U.K., young people are facing not only unemployment but also the devastating effects of homelessness, addiction, poverty, bullying and poor mental health," Milburn said in a statement. "All of these hardships can leave them feeling that life isn't worth living. It is up to us to help them get their lives back on track and the funds raised through the #BeyGood campaign will help us to do that."

The State Fair isn't the only thing drawing big bucks into Grand Island.
Saturday's Heartland Hoops Classic can add its name to the list of money makers for the city.
Now in its sixth year, the event brought in 16 high school basketball teams, not to mention close to five thousand fans to fill the seats for the nightcap game.
"That's going to be a huge impact on Grand Island -- the hotels, food, housing, everything else, and I think it's a huge impact for Grand Island," said event volunteer Monte Hehnke. "I think Tino just had an idea to bring in different teams and now it's kind of turned into an event where we can still host local teams and we can bring in some different attractions later."
Officials say people started filing in for early morning games and staying throughout the whole event, with some even staying overnight to make a weekend out of it.

Shakespeare: staging the world

Published to accompany a major exhibition at the British museum, which was part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad and the World Shakespeare festival.
This exhibition book links historical objects and works of art with Shakespeare's texts to reveal how the playwright informed his audiences of the major events and political issues of the day: a sixteenth- century dagger fished from the Thames gives new significance to the gang violence of Romeo and Juliet; Henry V's saddle, helm and shield recall the depiction of war in the history plays; Guy Fawkes' lantern illustrates the failed gunpowder plot, later to prove the inspiration for Macbeth.
Jonathan Bate is Provost of Worcester College Oxford and formerly Professor of Shakespeare and Renaissance Literature at the University of Warwick. He is an internationally acclaimed author and editor, with titles including Soul of Age: the Life, Mind and Works of William Shakespeare.
Dora Thornton is curator of Renaissance Europe at the British Museum and author of many titles, including The Scholar in His Study: Ownership and Experience in Renaissance Italy.

OLYMPIA, WA - Tuberculosis cases are up in Washington state for the first time after several years of decline.209 cases were reported last year, a 13 percent increase from the 185 cases reported in 2012. The tuberculosis rate in the state has consistently been lower than the national average, but in 2013 it matched the national rate.
"Tuberculosis can be a very serious, even fatal, disease. Treatment is difficult for people because it requires taking multiple medications for several months," State Health Officer Dr. Kathy Lofy said. "It's important for public health and the healthcare community to stay vigilant and work together to control tuberculosis."TB is a dangerous, bacterial infection that usually affects the lungs but can also attack other parts of the body. Symptoms include fever, night sweats, fatigue, weight loss, and a persistent cough. Some people however may have no symptoms.
Quick treatment with antibiotics is the key to avoid death and less severe symptoms. People with HIV or AIDS, individuals younger than 5 and older than 50, and those with weakened immune systems are at increased risk. The disease is spread in the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or speaks and others breathe in the bacteria. The counties with the most cases in 2013 were King (114), Snohomish (26), Pierce (22), Spokane (7), Clark (5), and Thurston (5).

Outstanding. Animation and look was very cool, and the sound track was AWESOME (thanks, Adgy). We started it too late Sunday with the thought of stopping halfway and finishing the next night, but the story was too compelling to quit.
I just watched Before Sunrise for the first time, and as a single guy in his early 20's, it pretty much spell-bounded me. I can't remember the last time I felt so connected to a movie, TOTALLY recommend it (at least to people my age) if you're looking for a non commercial, un-forced fed romance movie.
Is it gay that I accidentally tuned into Swing Vote and I never flipped away from it?
Finally saw "Up" in 3D. The 3D wasn't all that, but the movie was fantastic. Easy five stars and one of Pixar's best.

Will time ever come to an end?
I have been reading a few different articles discussing the "end of time". They mostly talk about how modern physics suggests that at a certain point, all activity in the universe will cease, and there will be no renewal or recovery. My question is basically asking, if this were to happen, wouldn't time theoretically continue? Is time only a measurement of activity, or can it exist without any interaction of matter?
Here are some of the articles I have read:
Nov 7 2012: Actually, i don't know, but there are some indicators which suggest, that time may come to an end one day.
This is my hypothesis:
If you ever waited in line for something, you may have noticed, that time dramatically slows down that very moment you line up at the very end of it. At first sight there seem only two influencing mechanism involved in this deceleration process - 'length of line' and 'necessity to line up for' - but there are more to it, like 'heavy feet', 'urgend appointments', 'need for a restroom', etc...
So as more reasons we find for time to slow down, and if we would carefully combine all of them, hypothetically time should finally come to an end, at least for the very last person in a very long line.
Of course one could argue, that we have never seen single individuals standing somewhere alone and 'frozen in time' (even though its original waiting line has long vanished), but this fact alone does not disproof this hypothesis. As much a duck can not swim in a pond without water, a person on final 'time hold' would cease out of our perception... This not only helps to avoid time-paradoxon, it would also free the original walking space...
We probably all heard this stories about men telling their wifes those famose last words: 'I just go to get some cigarettes, honey' and they never ever returned. So what if at those cigarette machines were other husbands already waiting in line, in long lines? Maybe hundreds of men, carefully wrapped in closed 'time bubbles' are piling up in some higher dimension somewhere... ?
And not all of them have to be smokers! Did anyone actually count how many people get lost when a new iPhone gets out? A new blockbuster movie or at open air concerts?
If this, my hypothesis is true, we then know three things for certain: Time can stop, there is an effective way to quit smoking and 'early birds' are an endangered species ...
This hypothesis now comes to an end and it was a fun time, while writing it.
Nov 7 2012: Thank you Juliette for your encouragement and your feedback, which makes it even more fun to loose the remaining bits of my reputation and seriousness here on TED Conversations... :o)
And if the day comes were I am not posting here anymore, I may have finally put myself into self-experiment and succeeded! My lungs would probably be happy and so would the 'scientist' within me. But the rest... ? I already get bored just thinking of those lines ... just imagine those 'bubbles' and a mind still working within - ageless, timeless - would that be torture? :o)

Nov 5 2012: Dear Matthew,
When posting " I have been reading a few different articles discussing the "end of time". They mostly talk about how modern physics suggests that at a certain point, all activity in the universe will cease," it is imperative to include your source articles:-)
Modern Physics thinks different: I find Sean Carroll's lectures exceptionally valuable and glad to offer you these links;
http://www.ted.com/talks/sean_carroll_on_the_arrow_of_time.html ( part 1 )
http://www.ted.com/talks/sean_carroll_on_the_arrow_of_time_part_2.html ( part 2)
Hope this is helpful..
All / any answers to your question are hypothetical.
Nov 6 2012: Dear Matthew,
Your question regarding time through the astrophysics approach is one of the most intriguing wonders of life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomy. The articles you posted are actually heart warming, since they predict a 5 Billion year window to study other galaxies and find a way of moving there before our sun dies out. I am fascinated by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Astrolabe-Persian-18C.jpg, Hubble images, http://www.ted.com/talks/tom_wujec_demos_the_13th_century_astrolabe.html,
http://www.ted.com/talks/george_smoot_on_the_design_of_the_universe.html, (T=11:07) etc.
To offer you my thought / hypothesis on the subject; time is entirely a human invention. It is one of our many inventions to grasp this life form and the universe that we are experiencing. Eventually, we will know that time might in the "end" give way to something deeper; the timeless; a concept that we may strive for knowing in this life, through 'feeling' not matter - but energy.
edward long 100+Nov 5 2012: Apart from human constructs intended to explain such things as Time, Eternity, Consciousness, Love, etc. we are unable to formulate a Law of Time. I think Time is "a measurement of activity" as you say. After all, if nothing changed what purpose would Time serve? If temperature never changed what purpose would temperature measurement serve? If the force of gravity never changed (which it doesn't) why would there be a need for a measurement system of the force of gravity? So long as there is change there is a need for Time to measure it. Will there be a point in human history where all change will cease? Natural science has no answer so we must look to the supernatural realm. I believe the Holy Bible answers your question in the affirmative. Time shall be no more.
Nov 5 2012: Time requires mass, or perhaps the gravitational force produced by mass. I don't think we really know what gravity is; however logic would dictate that it requires energy. At the death of the universe all energy is exhausted, so it seems logical that tIme would cease.
That said :-
Revelation 21:1 (KJV)
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Looks like things will wind up a bit earlier than that.
Nov 5 2012: yeah, but what is the connection? creating and slowing down are two very different things.
there is a class of solutions to the einstein equations called vacuum solutions. it basically means that there is no mass involved. these solutions of course does not describe our real world, but they can quite well describe a space far away from any matter, like a small patch in the middle of the intergalactic nothingness. in these solutions, of course there is the usual space-time, as we know it. in fact, it is more like we know it, has less weird properties.
but this is about general relativity. it is just a model, and we know it is not perfect. what about quantum theories? most of them don't describe mass at all. yet, they all have a concept of time. and even those that attempts to explain gravity, don't rely on gravity. gravity is something that is either present or not present at a certain location. you can imagine worlds without mass at all. but time is always a part of these models.
in fact, we don't have any models in physics that does not have an ever present time parameter.
but we are still talking about models. the OP asked about reality. so the correct answer would be: our theories have different concept of time. but we don't yet know which of them, if any, is an accurate representation of reality.
Nov 5 2012: time is not related to change. we can imagine a system which slowly stops changing but time is open in the future direction. we can also imagine universes with a bounded time dimension. in the latter case, the "end of time" does not coincide with a stationary point. quite the opposite, just like the big bang is characterized by violent and fast changes, there can be a big crash at the end, which is equally drastic. the time might end in a crescendo.
which one of these is the reality? we don't know.

Cocaine is one of the most abused stimulants in the United States. It is also responsible for the most emergency room visits of any illicit drug. The 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health estimated that there were 1.6 million cocaine users in the United States. While cocaine abuse and addiction appears to be on the decline, cocaine remains an addictive, potentially dangerous drug. Anyone suffering from cocaine addiction would benefit from a professional addiction treatment program.
Cocaine is a crystalline tropane alkaloid that is derived from the coca plant. It stimulates the central nervous system by increasing levels of dopamine (a neurotransmitter) to cause feelings of euphoria, increase alertness and reduce appetite. It can also increase feelings of sexuality. Negative side effects include anxiety, restlessness and paranoia. Effects last around 45 minutes. Using in excess can cause tremors, convulsions and coma. While cocaine is not generally considered to be physically addictive, it causes psychological cravings and serious addiction.
Physiologically, there is actually no difference between crack cocaine and regular, powder cocaine. Both produce the same effects on the body by increasing dopamine levels in the central nervous system. The difference between the two is half-life. Half-life is a measure of how long the drug remains active in the individual's body. Crack cocaine has a much shorter half-life than regular cocaine (15 minutes versus 45 minutes, approximately). The effects of crack cocaine wear off more quickly, meaning the individual has to continually take more and more of the drug. The effects of crack are believed to be felt within the first 15 seconds of smoking it, whereas it can take 10 to 15 minutes just to feel the effects of regular cocaine. Crack is also a more pure form of cocaine, so the effects are more pronounced. For all of these reasons, crack is considered to be the more addictive form of cocaine.
There are a variety of negative side effects associated with cocaine use. Some short-term side effects include:
Long-term effects of cocaine abuse can be serious and potentially life-threatening. These include:
Of all the illicit drugs, cocaine users have some of the highest association with behaviors and environments. This can increase the risk for cocaine overdose. Studies have shown that if a person uses cocaine in the same place, at the same time and under the same circumstances, they become accustomed to the effects and can appear tolerant. The individual can use more and more of the drug and experience similar effects because they have conditioned their body to anticipate the ingestion of cocaine in that particular environment.
Most cocaine overdoses occur in an unfamiliar location. What happens is, the individual, thinking they have developed a tolerance to the cocaine, use a large amount in a location unfamiliar to them. The body does not anticipate the consumption of the cocaine because it has not been conditioned to do so under those particular circumstances. The cocaine overwhelms the body and the person overdoses. Cocaine is a drug that shows one of the h2est links between behavioral and environmental circumstances.
We design personalized treatment programs to provide each abuser with the greatest chance of a successful recovery outcome. Our comprehensive networking system works hand in hand with all of the drug treatment centers in California.
At Drug Rehab California we know that each individual is unique and are treated as such. Deciding upon a treatment option in California, or anywhere can be a daunting task for any individual or family, we will guide you through each step of a comprehensive treatment plan for you or your loved one.
We realize that each individual is in a different financial situation and we will find treatment options for each individual regardless of their financial situation.

Meet the Staff!
Published on Monday, November 19, 2012 - 12:38pm
Since "Miss Patty's" arrival at Cleveland Park, our younger patrons have flocked to her -- and some have even named toy animals after her. Patty's delightful enthusiasm and hearty laughter enliven our library, and the children adore her for her warmth, openness, and kindness. Patty enjoys being silly, and is totally at ease leading storytime and singing for 1- and 2-year-olds on Monday and Wednesday mornings, as well as at pajama storytime in the winter.
We never know how Patty will surprise us: She once wore glorious, iridescent fairy wings, flying through the library. For Halloween, she arrived dressed as Dr. Who, one of her favorite characters.
A talented and self-taught puppeteer, Patty performs with the Mount Pleasant Children's Puppet Hour group. Experienced in community theater, she contributed to the Town and Gown Players -- in her beloved hometown of Athens, Ga. -- as an assistant director, stage manager, actor and board member. She loved her involvement in Something's Afoot, a murder mystery musical comedy, and was especially proud of the Players' three-night, sold-out production of Bent.
An undergraduate of the University of Georgia (and a big fan of the Bulldogs) and a graduate of the University of Maryland Library Science program, Patty has worked in libraries since high school -- first in circulation, then as a library assistant doing children's programming, and now as a full-time children's librarian at Cleveland Park. She feels that middle school and young adult fiction offers some of the best writing now, and her favorite series are Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Divergent and Hunger Games. Patty reads every picture book that comes in at least once -- "every wonderful whatever we have at the library," and she keeps up with children's literature reviews and blogs. She also reads lots of graphic novels, and recently attended a multimedia science fiction and fantasy convention. Artistic herself, Patty created fantastical shoes for a friend, and she's helping to design and build the Cleveland Park Library Facebook page.
For our summer reading party in August, "Miss Patty" volunteered to give every child who read 50 hours or more the chance to throw a whipped cream pie at her. So we all know how much fun she has in her job!

Coldfire Emulator
This is a Motorola Coldfire Emulator
The latest version is
Things to note:
It boots
! Get binaries from
The uClinux coldfire binary download page
I made a
quick howto to make it run
, for those unfamiliar with a coldfire chip and who just want to make Linux run on Linux. :)
A quick howto to
build a cross compiler
It is GPL'ed
Use at own risk
It is written on linux, so will probably work the best on linux
It will compile on windows using the Cygwin compiler.
ECE354 and ECE222 students at U of Waterloo: Start it with 'coldfire --board boards/cjdesign-5307.board' to get the emulator to load the board layout that matches the coldfires in our labs.
Things it can do:
What can't it do? Use KitchenSync (Plug for KDE, eventhough I'm an FVWM person) for the rest.
Seriously, just about everything in the ColdFire 5206 chip and on the eval board now.
Support is being added for the 5206e/5307 processor, and even more board layouts. Umm.. where 'even more' is defined as being greater than one.
When the emulator starts, it will print two TCP port numbers.
These correspond to serial port 1 and 2, telnet to these ports if you want to see output.

Few places can enjoy as idyllic a setting as EĞİRDİR, with its vast lake encircled by undulating mountains. Long heralded by locals as Anatolia's best-kept secret, this humble lakeside town has a reputation for enticing travellers to stay a lot longer than they'd intended. That's not surprising when you consider the plethora of hikes – Eğirdir is a major stop on the acclaimed long-distance St Paul Trail – bike routes and watersports in close proximity.
A kilometre-long causeway divides the town, separating the mainland market town, with its historical sites and harbour filled with colourful fishing boats, from Yeşilada, a tiny island reached by a sliver of land running out onto the lake, which is home to most of the local pensions and lakeside restaurants. Aside from its scenic vistas and outdoor activities, Eğirdir's real charm lies in its endearing indifference to modern tourism. You're more likely to find restaurant proprietors sipping tea on the terrace than rustling up business on the streets below, so take heed of the slower pace of life and relish lazy evenings relaxing by the lakeside. Just don't forget your insect repellent; summer nights are swarming with mosquitoes.
Brief history
Founded by the Hittites, Eğirdir was taken by the Phrygians in 1200 BC. Not until Lydian times, however, when it straddled the so-called King's Way from Ephesus to Babylon, did the town become famous for its recreational and accommodation facilities.
Egirdir Lake
Turkey's second-largest freshwater lake, spreading for a vast 488 square kilometres at around 900m above sea level, Eğirdir Lake is an expanse of glistening blue framed by dramatic mountain peaks. With its cool clear waters, the lake offers some ideal swimming spots. Come summer, it plays host to watersports such as kayaking, windsurfing and catamarans, all on offer for around ¨25 per hour at the Eğirdir Outdoor Centre (see p.418). Alternatively, local fishermen are more than happy to take you out in their boats (¨50 per half-day), and know all the best swimming, fishing and barbecue spots. There's even a growing trend for paragliding when the winds pick up, with tandem flights soaring up over the lake and affording some incredible views over the valley below.
Excursions from Egirdir
Excursions from Egirdir
Despite its comparatively small tourism industry, Eğirdir makes a great base from which to explore the region. The local pensions are now well organized, with tours, guides, maps and independent travel information all easily available.
Hiking trails
While the St Paul's Trail is the region's most famous long-distance walking trail, numerous trekking routes have been mapped out, and independent hiking is easy. These range from half- or full-day walks to multi-day trips such as the hike to Barla (25km), and the overnight trips to the summits of Mount Dedegöl and Mount Davraz. The Eğirdir Outdoor Centre (wegirdiroutdoorcenter.com) can tailor routes to your requirements and arrange transport (costing around TL1 per km), guides (around TL100 per day), camping equipment and packed lunches.
Cycling routes
Potential bike routes vary from easier circuits around the region's many lakes, or the mostly flat terrain leading to Kovada National Park (54km round trip), to more challenging routes like the hilly climbs to Barla village (46km round trip) or the mountainous course to Zindan Cave (50km round trip).
Kovada National Park
The lake, marshland and forests of Kovada Gölü form a carefully tended and hardly visited national park. Its animal population includes wolves, bears and wild boars, and the lake itself, teeming with fish, receives the outflow of Eğirdir Gölü. The limestone shore is harsh and the lake itself tinted green by its sediment, so it's not a particularly enticing swimming spot, but the largely untouched wildlife makes for some great walking and birdwatching opportunities.
Çandir/canyons/King's way
Many tours of Kovada National Park continue 30km south on the main road through a gorge towards Çandır (signed Yazılı Kanyonu), passing a series of icy but scenic pools and waterfalls, crisscrossed by bridges, and best sampled in high summer. Well-preserved stretches still survive of the ancient Kral Yolu, or "King's Way", a road that threaded through Pisidia.
Between December and the end of March, the northern slopes of the 2635m Mount Davraz (30min drive from Eğirdir) offer decent downhill skiing and snowboarding, and the views from the slopes down to Lake Eğirdir are superb. Conditions are fairly reliable, though the limited runs won't satisfy everyone. The Eğirdir Outdoor Centre (wegirdiroutdoorcenter.com) and the Davraz Ski Centre (wdavraz.com) rent skis (from TL30) and snowboards (from TL35), and a weekday lift pass costs TL30.
The St Paul Trail
The St Paul Trail
Opened in 2004, the rugged St Paul Trail offers over 500km of trekking in the spectacularly beautiful Toros Mountains. Waymarked to international standards, with red and white flashes on rocks and trees, it allows relatively easy exploration of a remote, unspoiled area of Turkey. A detailed guidebook (which includes a map), written by Kate Clow, covers the trail.
The twin starting points of the route are the ancient cities of Perge and Aspendos, on the Mediterranean coastal plain. It was from Perge that St Paul set out, in 46 AD, on his first proselytizing journey. His destination was the Roman colonial town of Antioch ad Pisidiam, where he first preached Christ's message to non-Jews. En route from the Mediterranean to the Anatolian plateau, the trail crosses tumbling mountain rivers, climbs passes between limestone peaks that soar to almost 3000m, dips into deeply scored canyons, and weaves beneath shady pine and cedar forest. It even includes a boat ride across the glimmering expanse of Lake Eğirdir.
Hikers interested in archeology can discover remote, little-known Roman sites and walk along original sections of Roman road. The irrevocably active can raft the Köprülü River, scale 2635m Mount Davraz and 2799m Mount Barla (ascents of both appear in the trail guidebook; for more information check wtrekkinginturkey.com), or even tackle the mighty Dedegül (2992m).

Nokia may not be making Windows Phone 7 handsets after all. A report claims the company will wait until the 'Mango' update comes out this autumn, which will have a different name.
CNET editor Brian Bennett spent a little quality time with the new Nokia Lumia 710 for T-Mobile. This affordable $49.99 smartphone runs fun Windows Phone Mango software, and features a 5-megapixel camera and a 4G data connection.
Microsoft is rolling out the Mango update now to all eligible handsets -- so you should have your fill of Mango very soon.
Microsoft has fully turned on the tap for the new update to Windows Phone, making Mango available for the picking to just about every Windows Phone customer.
Dell has decided not to release a planned Windows Phone Mango handset called the Dell Wrigley. Has it lost faith in WP Mango?
The latest update to Windows Phone is now available for 50 percent of all users of Microsoft's mobile OS, as the company watches the rollout to make sure it stays on track.

The Giants over the last couple days seemed to only make one type of headlines, cutting of players. Getting under the salary cap is necessary before a team can actually start addressing resigning players, draft picks and free agents. Depending on who you talk to, the Giants were 9-12 million over the cap and had to make some moves to first get under the cap and to resign essential players like Bradshaw, Smith, Kiwi and Boss.
After releasing Shaun O'Hara, Shawn Andrews, Rocky Bernard, and Rich Seubert the team was able to free up some money to resign Kiwi, and signed two free agents, former 49ner, center Baas (pronounced Boss) and former Jet punter Weatherford. As someone that loves the offseason transactions and rumors, it's been painful the last couple of days. It's not comforting to see the Philadelphia Eagles grab the headlines with signing Nnamdi Asomugha, Cullen Jenkins, trading Kolb and acquiring DRC (Dominque Rodgers-Cromartie). I know Giant fans are screaming loudly on message boards and Twitter for Jerry Reese to make some kind of big splash.
What fans need to realize is the Giants philosophy on building their team is through the draft is always the goal. Don't forget prior to the 2007 Super Bowl season, the Giants made no moves until they signed linebacker Kawika Mitchell. Let's rewind back to the draft all the way back to April, the team did add a lockdown corner (Prince), a beast defensive tackle (Austin) and a potential return guy (yes I wasn't sad to see Reynaud not our only option). Jerry Reese said recently that he was satisfied with the current roster and further moves weren't necessary, was he holding his cards extremely close on his plans?
I really don't think the Giants will make much free agent signings besides resigning their own players. I'm not really sure if it's a situation where they don't have the cap space or just don't need anyone else. Media and fans would like more depth with the offensive line and maybe a strong side linebacker, but it won't happen unless they can get a true bargain. Furthermore, it currently seems that Vonta Leach is out of the running since super sub Bear Pascoe is penciled into the starting fullback spot.
I would be shocked if we see Plaxico Burress return just based on his past and his need for a fresh start. Also, the drama is starting to build with Osi Umenyiora, but he has very little leverage and I expect him to be in a Giants uniform come Sept 11th vs Washington. The only way I can see Osi being traded is if some team just blows away the Giants with a first round pick or impact starting player, which won't happen.
Unfortunately, the Giants won't be making the preseason front pages for roster moves, but I could be wrong, that's why I am continually checking twitter to see any developments. I'm looking forward to the preseason hoping Mark Herzlich makes the team and impact of all the other rookies.

This game is wicked cool! I got just over 210 miles, and earned several medals, and this game describes Charlie Sheen and his lifestyle perfectly. It might take a while to get all the drugs, though, because the pills are kinda rare, and might be the last one you collect, and here's a little tip: don't get into very large crowds, because you might accidentally run into a concrete wall without seeing it coming. Trust me, it happened to me a few times, and the next thing I knew, I was either low on health, or dead.

Peppermint oil overdose
Peppermint oil is an oil made from the peppermint plant. Peppermint oil overdose occurs when someone accidentally or intentionally takes more than the normal or recommended amount of this medication.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Poisonous Ingredient
- Menthol
Where Found
Peppermint oil is used as a flavoring agent in various products. It is also used:
- As a germ-killing (antiseptic) product
- As a numbing (anesthetic) product
- In herbal medicine to relieve spasms
Note: This list may not include all uses of peppermint oil.
- Heart and blood
- Slow heartbeat
- Lungs
- Shallow breathing
- Slow breathing
- Rapid breathing
- Gastrointestinal
- Kidneys and bladder
- Blood in urine
- No urine production
- Nervous system
- Skin
Home Treatment
Seek immediate medical help. DO NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by Poison Control or a health care professional.
Before Calling Emergency
Determine the following information:
- Patient's age, weight, and condition
- Name of the product (ingredients and strengths, if known)
- Time it was swallowed
- Amount swallowed
Poison Control, or a local emergency number
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.
What to expect at the emergency room
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
- Activated charcoal
- Breathing support
- Fluids through a vein (by IV)
- Tube through the mouth into the stomach to wash out the stomach (gastric lavage)
Expectations (prognosis)
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Survival past 48 hours is usually a good sign that recovery will occur. If damage to the kidneys has occurred, it may take several months to heal.

Comptroller's Office
|Effective: 01/01/2000
Revised: 02/21/2012
|CMP 122: Unrelated Business Income Tax
To provide an overview of the unrelated business income tax (UBIT) as it relates to the university
Internal Revenue Service
Under certain circumstances, the university may be required to pay taxes on unrelated business income. Income earned from unrelated trade or business that is not substantially related to the university's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation. Use of the unrelated income for the university's tax-exempt purpose does not avoid UBIT.
The tax-exempt purpose of a state university is somewhat broad; therefore, the activities subject to UBIT are relatively limited. To the Internal Revenue Service, the tax-exempt purposes of a state university include: religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition (but only if no part of its activities involve the provision of athletic facilities or equipment), or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals.
Listed below are several specific examples of university activities that generate income, but are not subject to UBIT:
The rules concerning UBIT are very complex and there are exceptions to the general rules described in this policy. Determining whether income is subject to UBIT can be subjective and depends on the facts and circumstances of each case. Each NAU department is responsible for notifying in writing the Comptroller's Office of any revenues being generated that may be subject to UBIT for an analysis and interpretation.

CI's Financial Ratio Analysis Spreadsheet
July 19, 2014
For most investors, examining a company's financial statements front to back is not only time-consuming, but overwhelming. Financial ratios seek to minimize this tedious task by allowing investors to work through financial statement figures in an organized fashion and draw conclusions based on how certain figures relate to one another.
Stock investors are primarily looking for future growth in cash flow and earnings. Fundamental investors examine variables that might significantly impact a firm's financial structure, sales, earnings production and dividend policy. By looking through a company's financial ratios, investors can piece together an estimate about the company's overall "health" to determine if it is an investment worth undertaking. CI offers a financial ratio analysis spreadsheet that aids in collecting the needed data and calculating the ratios. Five basic financial ratio categories are addressed in this spreadsheet: liquidity, efficiency, leverage, coverage and profitability. Note that the spreadsheet will not work correctly for evaluating financial companies.
The spreadsheet was created in Excel 2013 (Office 365). If you do not have this version of Excel, the spreadsheet may not open correctly. Support for Office 2003 has ended and we recommend users of Office 2003 update their software. Another option is to install an Office Compatibility Pack, which will allow you to open 2013, 2010 and 2007 Office System documents in Office 2003, Office XP, or Office 2000.
