…saying "the healthcare system is broken"…the healthcare system does not exist, that's a big part of the problem. (There are lots of tiny components that could be made into a system at some point, but no clear, cohesive healthcare system exists.)
Need more?
1.) Saying the "healthcare system is broken" is a concession - you concede a system exists. No such system exists. Clearly.
2.) Conceding that the system exists gives fodder to those who oppose the building of an ACTUAL system (say an universal one for example). It allows those folks to say "The system is just broken, but we can fix it by_______, we don't need to reinvent the wheel".
3.) You cannot defend the idea that the wheel was never invented in the first place because you already conceded a system existed.
ya know?

Playing for the 2010 NCAA Division II National Championship runner-ups, Burns has carved out a nice role on a ballclub that appears headed back to the D-II College World Series, boasting a 24-12 record on the spring.
Burns had a storied career at the College of San Mateo, where he led the Bulldogs to an appearance in the 2010 California Junior College State Championship game his sophomore season. Posting a 1.21 ERA with a 7-0 record, Burns' work on the mound garnered an ABCA/Rawlings All-American selection.

Yes it's that time of the year again when you put on your best green attire so you don't pinched. Maybe your into that kind of thing... Well I don't really want to hear about if you are. Anyways, that's right people, ST. PATTY'S DAY!!!! I mean come on people stop wearing the t-shirts that say, "are you looking at my shamrocks", " kiss me I'm Irish", or anything with Leprechauns on it. If you want to be a Leprechaun, grow a beard!
When we looked up Saint Patrick's Day on Wikipedia this is what was stated,"Saint Patrick's Day (Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig) is a yearly holiday celebrated on 17 March. It is named after Saint Patrick ( circa AD 387–493), the most commonly recognized of the patron saints of Ireland. It began as a purely Christian holiday and became an official feast day in the early 1600s. However, it has gradually become more of a secular celebration of Ireland's culture".Now with that being said, is there anything there that said you are to wear those stupid t-shirts on St. Patty's day? NO, so stop wearing them and stop giving St. Patty's day a bad name.Instead, check out some of the green gear that we have on tillys.com. You'll look good in green and won't be giving St. Patty's day a bad name.BAM!!!

Police in Manchester arrested a school bus driver after a crash when officers said she failed a field sobriety test.
Melissa Forrest, 36, of Andover, was arrested and charged with DUI and following too close when the crash was reported on Main Street on Tuesday afternoon.
An initial report of the incident was made after getting calls about seeing a school bus driving erratically in the area of exit 60 on West Middle Turnpike. Police said the officers checked the area but didn't find the school bus.
A short time later police said they were called to the Bennett Academy on Main Street for a crash involving a school bus.
Witnesses said the bus rear-ended a wheel chair van at a red light at the intersection of Main Street and Forest Street.
"It's just unbelievable that this person was driving a bus," said Forest Package Store Owner Richard Husbands, who saw the crash and thought it was minor.
There were three people inside the wheel chair van at the time of the crash, and students from Rockville High School's Vocational Agriculture program and Cheney Tech on the school bus were not injured.
There was also minor damage to the school bus, officials said.
After leaving Rockville High School, the bus stopped at Cheney Tech in Manchester and was headed to take those kids home to Bolton
Police said all of the students were Bolton residents.
Police said after the crash Forrest was given a field sobriety test and failed.
Forrest was released on $5,000 bond and was given a court date of Sept. 30.
First Student, the company that employs Forrest, said she has been suspended pending the outcome of an investigation.
First Student officials said before being hired, each driver is subject to drug and alcohol screenings as well as a background check, which includes driving, employment and criminal history.
They said Forrest passed all pre-employment screenings.
Now, two school districts are trying to figure out how it happened. School officials said Bolton is in charge of transportation with these students.
Following the arrest, Bolton Superintendent Kristin B. Heckt, and Vernon Superintendent Mary Conway released statements.
"We are working closely with our transportation vendor, First Student, to ensure nothing like this happens again," said Heckt.
"We are working closely with Superintendent Heckt of the Bolton Public Schools to investigate this further. We want to ensure that this never happens again," said Conway.
Forrest didn't answer the door when Eyewitness News went to her home in Andover Wednesday. However, based on the playground set up in her yard, it appears she may have children of her own.
Parents said they're glad Forrest was caught before anyone was hurt.
"I think they need to prosecute this person because this person did put a lot of kids lives in danger," said parent Paula Plant.

Instagram: photo sharing with a difference.
Sold this week for a whopping 1 billion dollars to a very keen Mark Zuckerberg, Instagram has not been so impressively sought out for no reason. As a mobile based social network centred around sharing photos, its fresh approach to social media has caused its increase in popularity in record time. No wonder Facebook wanted to buy out such an impressively up and coming rival.
For those of you unaware of the ins and outs of this free, five star rated application, its main feature is the number of effects and filters you can apply to a photo before sharing it with the world. The range of filters play with shadows, borders and colour to create a 'vintage' or 'retro' look, making those photographed look better and transforming everyday objects into twitter worthy works of art. There is also the option to play with focus, to highlight how many extra shots are in your Starbucks or whatever aspect you deem most important in your photo.
The social network side of things is simple but effective, allowing you to follow friends, comment and like their photos. Followers work in a similar way to Twitter; you can choose to be private, but the default setting is public, so people can start to follow you without your approval. You are also similarly provided with two news feeds, one which gives you details about new followers, comments and likes on your photos, and one that gives you information about the people you follow. As far as personal information goes, you have a profile that allows you to share your website, number and birthday, as well as write a bio if you so desire.
The USP (or at least, before the sell to Facebook which may change things) of the app is that it is almost solely restricted to your mobile device. Though you have the option to share your photos with a number of social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr, your newsfeed and complete photo collection is not accessible from your computer. Initially this mean absolute exclusivity for iPhone owners, resulting in a light hearted snobbery around the uploading of Instagram photos to social networking sites, in a sort of 'look, this shows how good my phone is' way.
However the app has now branched out to Android, and the sale to Zuckerburg may result in the transfer of features to Facebook, meaning that Instagram is dropping its exclusive allegiance to Apple and is on its way to taking over the rest of the world (at least in photo modifying terms). As far as apps go, it's really got it all going on. Free, no adverts, simple to use and pretty fun too.
The only problem is that it has caused a significant few to believe they are world class photographers because they chose a particularly effective filter for a particularly poignant photograph of a flower or a pair of Converse. The trick to Instagram success; don't take yourself too seriously!

- Service lackingJncmrcDined on 9/28/2014After our first trip to Barclay, we were very impressed with the service and food. The food was still good, but the service was not. When our foriegn friend asked about the steak sauces, the server did not explain them and stood there as if everyone should know what is in them. The server forgot our friend's drink order, did not stop by to ask us how our steak was prepared (mine was not how I ordered), and was generally aloof. The restaurant was almost empty, so we really see no reason for this and do not have any intention of returning. We were embarrassed that we took out of town guests here.I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Perfect EveningTimmyODined on 9/26/2014My wife and I celebrated our Anniversary here and everything was wonderful. Cool ambience, great service, amazing food. I can't wait to go back!Special Features:
- Awful evening,fire alarm all night!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/20/2014Awful evening. Supposed to be a celebration..turned out to be a nightmare. Fire alarm went off for at least 30 min! Flashing light in my fiances face that have him a migraine. Couldn't enjoy food, staff was not even apologetic! I'm actually in shock
- Didn't Like the FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 9/20/2014I had heard a lot about Barclay Prime from friends who loved it, but I was not a fan. I took my partner there for his birthday. I ordered the lobster bisque, which was one of the worst I've ever had, and the chilean sea bass, which tasted like butter. The rolls are really good, but also taste like there's a lot of butter in them. We also ordered the truffle mac and cheese, which not surprisingly, tasted like there was a lot of butter in it as well. My partner had the tomato appetizer, which was good, and the rib eye, which was not. Our server was amazingly attentive, though. He even brought out dessert with a candle and happy birthday written with sauce -- without my asking (I just noted that it was his birthday in my reservation).
- OutstandingNaTashaDined on 9/19/2014Everything was wonderful: food, service, and ambiance. However, the restaurant was extremely cold. I am a loyal customer and I will continue to frequent this establishment.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently GreatOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/19/2014I have been to this restaurant four times and the food is excellent and I enjoy the atmosphere. My only general complaint would be the shared bathroom. I can't stand unisex bathrooms and even though the stalls are marked male or female in this particular bathroom, a man emerged from one of the women's stalls.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 9/17/2014We went to Barclay Prime for our anniversary. We had a fabulous waitress Melissa, she was friendly and attentive. We both had the lobster bisque, which was great and for our entrée we had the boneless ribeye steak which was outstanding. The bread that they serve is the best. Can't find anything negative about our experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/14/2014the best steak of my life. service was quick and good. waiter was knowledgeable and helpful. chairs were uncomfortable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Oh my God loudGovolsDined on 9/12/2014Great food. Great service. So loud I couldn't hear the guy I was interviewing talk.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It's good but it can be betterroxieDined on 9/12/20141)For a fine dine restaurant, it was indeed noisy, I had such a hard time hearing my server, 2)I didn't like the fact that the men's and ladies room were together, that was the first I ever encountered, 3) most fine dine does have a complimentary dessert for a birthday occasion but this one doesn't acknowledge itSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Steak EverNikkiB912Dined on 9/12/2014My family (adults only) went for my birthday and it was one of the best meals I have ever had. They answered any questions you might have and the service was great. The decor was a little off that's the only reason I didn't give 5 starsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- devineeatingDined on 9/12/2014everything was superb,however, it is a bit pricey. valet parking is also high. it is worth a splurge. the waiter was excellent. the time between courses was perfectly timed. i highly recommend this restaurantSpecial Features:
- Anniversary Bliss!pilotJDVIPDined on 9/12/2014Fantastic night at Barclay Prime! It was our Anniversary, so we decided to head into Philly to enjoy a fine meal. We made a reservations for a table of four at 5:00pm. The restaurant atmosphere was inviting and comfortable, without being pretentious or cold. That being said however, this may not be the best choice if you are looking for a very private intimate table for two. All in all our meals were fantastic, but I would not order the hundred $100 cheesesteaks again without the assurance that we would taste the truffles. Our waiter Matthew was outstanding and I would definitely return for a repeat experience. All in all, Barclay prime scores five stars! Try it but expect a high price tag. Plan on $200 per person.Special Features:
- Dinner with FriendslgoodmancpaVIPDined on 9/11/2014Been to Barclay Prime over the years and my most recent visits have just been ok, nothing special. The service is always great but the food has not been as stellar as it once was. The prices are at the top of the scale, but the food was average. Not as magical a restaurant as it once was and also very noisy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Second to noneArmorer1984Dined on 9/10/2014Barclay Prime had a lot to live up to, as their reputation is what brought us from Nebraska to eat there. We were not disappointed, but impressed. Everything was exquisite in every detail, from the food to the staff to the space itself. Definitely recommend Barclay to everyone we know and maybe they will make the trip too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointedNotgoodDined on 9/9/2014I heard good things about BP however our experience for the $$ was very disappointing. The dinner started off well but once the restaurant filled up the service slowed as well. Our waiter was great then he got a party of 12 and forgot where our table was (which was right next to the party of 12). The steaks were all undercooked no one from the waiter or management came back to see how our steaks were, we were never offered additional drinks and had to flag down someone to get water. I would definetly think twice before I came back to spend that kind of money. Very disappointing.
- Food and Service Don't Equal PriceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/8/2014The setting is nice however, I felt that the food and service did not match up to the high priced menu.
- Simply the BestsechsgangVIPDined on 9/8/2014In a city where most steak restaurants take a turn for the worst after years of comfortable running...Barclay Prime continues to impress and is without doubt still the best steakhouse in town. The meat is extremely high quality and the preparation is always spectacular. The prices are up there, but the quality and service are right there with it.Special Features:
- Quiet Night, Excellent find.NoleDave904Dined on 9/7/2014We were in town visiting for the Jaguars-Eagles game. Assuming that's why it was so quiet. Place is probably packed otherwise. Excellent Veal and Lamb choices. Server knew her wine. Her name was Amy. I think she might have been the bartender too. She was excellent as well. Will go back if in Philadelphia again. A must for fellow carnivorous diners.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A lovely dinnerBetsyVIPDined on 9/7/2014This was my first time at Barclay Prime, and I enjoyed it! The food was great, and the service was helpful without being overbearing. I liked the vibe, the music and the decor. I will be back.Special Features:

- Great Special Occasion Place!GreatSpotDined on 9/6/2014I took a special lady to Barclay Prime for her birthday and the place exceeded all my expectations. The ambiance very relaxed and elegant and the service was impeccable. I informed the restaurant in advance that my reservation was for a birthday and they immediately greeted us kindly and with a special "Happy Birthday" to my guest, which was extremely cool! We sat down at a table against the wall and were blown away with how comfy the seats were and how elegant the inside was. Our waiter, Curtis, extended another"Happy Birthday" wish to my guest and made us feel right at home. The steaks were delicious and the sides were mouth watering. The dinner ended with a great dessert and a free piece of cake on the house! We will definitely return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodGreatfoodDined on 9/6/2014Our food was superb. I had the dry aged NY steak, and my partner had the Chilean sea bass. Both were excellent and superbly prepared. The desert was to die for. Great restaurant for dinner and special occasionsSpecial Features:
- popovers alone are worth the tripge8moodVIPDined on 9/5/2014I dream about those popovers. Yum. We had an incredibly tasty and romantic meal with superb service. Our waiter recommended the yellow tail crudo to start which proved to be an excellent as stated. Wedge salad was great. Steak was cooked to perfection, as promised. All side dishes were just delightful. The wine, prosecco, cocktails, and scotch all completed the meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect evening!Flagirl3Dined on 9/2/2014Everything about our evening here was great! Glenn, our waiter, never rushed us and made wonderful suggestions. The food was very good-our steak was cooked perfectly with a lovely grilled crust, and the banana cake -divine! We split everything-no problem here.The room is "Mad Men" cool, but comfortable. I like that the table are not too close together. Glenn even sent us home with a little cake present for our anniversary. Oh-they called early to see if we'd like a candle on our cake, too. You cannot go wrong-wonderful food, service, ambience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Good but not specialFlowersDined on 8/30/2014Although this was not my first dining experience at Barclay Prime, I do not remember it being so pricey. I did not order the steak I wanted because it was too expensive. If that is not a factor for you, enjoy your meal. The food is good and the ambiance lovely.
- Top of the ListleeneyDined on 8/29/2014We had a great time. Our waiter, Matt Penn was terrific! His service to us was excellent. I had one of the top two meals I have ever enjoyed at Barclay Prime that night. Everything we ordered was exceptional from appetizers to salad to entree to dessert course. I plan to return. Well Done!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best SteakgetinmybellyDined on 8/29/2014Our food was amazing. Everything from the char on the steak to the popovers was perfect. My only complaint is that the management staff came off rather snooty and did not seem to treat all diners equally.Special Features:
- setchDined on 8/29/2014This was our second time at Barclay Prime and it was better than the first. We ordered the exact same dishes (lobster bisque, sliders, chilean sea bass and filet). The sliders are hard to describe other than simply saying they are the most flavorful burger you have ever had. My doesn't like fish, but loves the sea bass - light, very flavorful, and unlike any other. The lobster bisque has more lobster in it than anyone could reasonably expect. This time we also ordered desert. It's rare that all three courses are at the same level of excellence, but that is exactly what you get at Barclay Prime. The peach crepes were unbelievable. The ambiance is great, not too loud and the seating is truly unique. Service is outstanding, among the best.Special Features:
- SupurbNYCfoodieDined on 8/29/2014Barclay Prime does not disappoint. The food is consistantly excellent, service is attentive and impeccable. This is my favorite restaurant in Philadelphia.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BoChangDined on 8/28/2014Not just great steaks but great appetizers, salads, non-beef options.Special Features:
- Excellent but not my styleOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/26/2014We had a great time, food was great, service very good but the decor is just not our style. We are a little old fashion and as a result we like the more traditional look. This is more modern look and while I have nothing per se against it, just not our style. With that said one of our favorite dishes is Dover sole which we both had. Excellent! Also notable which we have not seen in a while were the popovers. A favorite. We had excellent salads. Mine was beet salad which I had with a balsamic at my request. It was one of the best beet salads ever. We had a very enjoyable mealSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/25/2014I took my girlfriend here for her birthday. Food was really good albeit extremely expensive. I recommend going for special occasions. They did throw in a free desert for her which was nice.Special Features:
- Never Disappoints!JoeBamVIPDined on 8/23/2014After shuffling our three daughters off to college, my wife and I decided to celebrate with a night out and headed to Barclay Prime! The service, food, attention to detail, and overall experience is absolutely unmatchable! Jason is the BEST! The entire staff is the BEST! You will never go wrong heading to BP, whether it be a romantic date, business dinner, or special occasion!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SteakPierogiDined on 8/23/2014I've eaten at some of the finest steak restaurants in ny and Chicago, and the ribeye I had at Barclay was better than all of them. Great service great food from appetizers through desert. The retro vibe of the dining room provides great topics for conversation as does the unisex bathroom. The only neg. feedback I have is that the bathroom could use an attendant as we were there for a later reservation and the facility was "well used" by 10:30. Also they have the bench seating along both sides of the restaurant so if that's not your thing be sure and request a stand alone table.Special Features:
- Good Food So So ServiceFoodFunDined on 8/23/2014We chose Barclay Prime to celebrate a going away for college after having been there a couple times before. Menu choices are ample as is the wine list (our original choice wasn't available so we wound up with a good second option). One steak order needed to go back when the dish was not edible (extremely tough) but the replacement was handled well and the new dish was delicious. Where the visit fell down was with service to the table--empty water glasses, missing place settings. Overall our meal was enjoyable and we will return. The vibe is very cool and seating is very comfortable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WSAU-Woodchucks) - Wisconsin Woodchucks starter Curtis Morgan went the distance against the Green Bay Bullfrogs, but the Bullfrogs were able to pull out a 3-1 victory over the Woodchucks.
Morgan and Bullfrogs starter Garrett Harrison would trade scoreless half innings until the Bullfrogs got on the board in the bottom of the third. After a one out walk to Robert Youngdahl, Bryant Burleson doubled into the gap to score Youngdahl and put the Frogs up 1-0. Burleson would score as well on a throwing error by Woodchucks shortstop Tell Taylor to extend the lead to two runs.
Harrison was able to work around several jams in his outing for the Bullfrogs. Harrison finished six innings, allowing no runs on six hits with six strikeouts to his credit. While Harrison was on the mound, he was able to strand a total of eight Woodchucks on base, five of which were in scoring position.
The Woodchucks got creative to push across their first run in the top of the seventh. With Kyle Haen on third and Tyler Adams on first, the Woodchucks put the runners in motion. Adams broke from first base, attempting to steal second. As catcher Ryan Matranga's throw went to second, Haen sprinted from third and crossed home plate to cut the Bullfrogs lead to a run. The score would remain 2-1 up until the bottom of the eighth. Burleson came through again for the 'Frogs with another RBI double, this one scoring Trevin Sonnier from first to give the Bullfrogs a run of insurance.
Morgan was spectacular in his Woodchuck debut on the mound. Morgan went all eight innings, allowing only two earned runs on five hits.
The Woodchucks continue their seven-game road trip Tuesday when they will head to Duluth, Minn., to take on the Huskies. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. You can listen to the Woodchucks on Fox Sports Wausau WRIG 1390 AM and 93.9 FM.

Obziler Calls Time On Career
Published August 23, 2009 06:10
An extraordinary career came to an end last week when Israeli tennis icon Tzipi Obziler announced her retirement at a press conference. While the crafty 36-year-old might not have scaled the heights she might have dreamt of in the beginning, she'll be remembered for reaching her peak at an age when most players have long hung up their racquets, as well as for her dedication to playing for her country.
Obziler's career was, in fact, a tale in two acts. Having turned professional at 24 she quit the Tour just a few years later, disenchanted, and for nearly two years she coached. However, during this period she kept playing for Israel's Fed Cup team, and after pushing both Monica Seles and Lindsay Davenport in a tie in Missouri in 2002, was encouraged to make a full return to the Tour by none other than Billie Jean King, US captain at the time.
Although Obziler took the Tour legend's words to heart, it would nevertheless be another five long years before she really made her breakthrough. In 2007 she cracked the Top 100 and rose to a career best ranking of No.75 - when she was 34. That season she also played a key role in elevating Israel's Fed Cup team to the elite eight-country World Group competition.
Obziler, who gave Venus Williams a three-set fright in the first round at Roland Garros last year, reached her sole Tour singles final at Guangzhou in 2007. She reached the semis on two occasions (2006 Guangzhou and 2007 Bangalore) and the quarters a further six times. She won 14 ITF Circuit singles titles, and was a member of the Israeli Olympic Team at Beijing in 2008.
Earlier this year, she notched her 61st Fed Cup tie appearance, equaling the competition record previously set by her compatriot Anna Smashnova.
Still, the announcement of her retirement came as no great surprise, for this year Obziler has played very few events, and mainly to keep in shape for Fed Cup. But that didn't make the player any less emotional as she told the assembled media how she had been torn between the "desire of every professional athlete for competition and achievement, and the recognition that everything has its proper time and place.
"The time has come," Obziler added. "I thank this small, incredible country for giving me a stage for a tremendous career."
Mom's The Word
Obziler is unlikely to be at a loss as for things to do, not least because she is an elected member of her local Givatayim city council. Even more importantly, two years ago her partner of 13 years, Hadas, gave birth to the couple's daughter, Lihi.
"For Lihi, there was a very clear way of life. There was Mom Hadas at home and Mom Tzipi on the plane," Obziler said. "Now Lihi will get more of me. We have a lot to catch up on."
Still, Obziler hasn't entirely ruled out a future Fed Cup foray should her country need her; Israel lost 3-2 to Estonia in April, and has been relegated to zonal competition. "If captain Lior Mor decides he wants me on the team and I see that I'm physically capable of playing, than of course I wouldn't refuse," she said.
That can only be good news for the country's No.1, Shahar Peer. "This is a very emotional day for me," the 22-year-old told the Israeli press. "Tzipi was like an older sister to me. From my first day in the national team she always helped and supported me. As far as I'm concerned she is a model athlete both on and off the court."

How I Got Rich Quickly, Then Failed…Miserably
Published on - May 3rd, 2012 (by April Dykman)
This is a guest post from Belinda James. Belinda is currently attending Trident Online University and earning her master's degree in business administration. In her spare time she writes automotive articles for Nissan Minneapolis.
A few years ago I had a regular administrative 9-to-5 job working for one of the three credit bureaus. It was an okay job with an annual pay of around $33,000 a year. In 1998 that was more than enough to pay for a tiny studio apartment, take care of monthly bills, and pay for my shopping sprees at Forever 21 (I still shop there, actually).
However, everything changed when I bought my first computer and started fiddling around the Internet. Somehow I ended up clicking a "Webmasters Click Here" link on a website and figured out that it was possible to make money online. After I received my first $20 commission check I was pretty much hooked.
It took a lot if trial and error but by 2006 I was pulling in around $10,000 a month from promoting affiliate programs online. I had high-traffic websites and would generally earn $30 or $35 every time a web surfer made a purchase through my affiliate link. In a great month I would make around $13,000 or $14,000 and in a "bad" month maybe $8,000. At one point I had more than $80,000 in the bank!
But I made a lot of mistakes that cost me everything. Eventually, my income dwindled so much due to the recession and industry changes that I was forced to look for a job again. Here are my hard-learned lessons that might save you a lot of grief if you're running your own business (or think about starting one):
1. Pay your quarterly taxes on time
When you are self-employed you generally receive 1099s from the companies that you work for, and it's your responsibility to file your taxes quarterly. I used to file mine yearly; I was making a lot of money so financial penalties (even in the thousands!) didn't bother me.
One year I really overspent and I was wiped out once I paid taxes at the end of the year and never was able to recover from it financially. My income continued to plummet every year, but I was still responsible for income taxes for previous years. Paying your quarterly taxes in a timely manner ensures that you won't get caught behind, because once you do it can be nearly impossible to catch up.
2. Find a good accountant
Having a qualified CPA in your corner is crucial if you want your business to survive. I never incorporated so I was responsible for self-employment taxes. I never found a solid accountant that I could trust. One CPA charged me $650 an hour and didn't do anything for me that I couldn't have done for myself. I was told that it wasn't worth the extra paperwork for me to incorporate because my earnings weren't high enough.
3. Don't tie up a large chunk of your money in a car
When I was making a lot of money I bought a used Mercedes. It was certified pre-owned car, and I paid around $43,000 for it, in cash. Was it the smartest decision ever? No. But do I truly regret it? I would honestly have to say no (even though I know most people will disagree).
I like to enjoy life, and I'm not going to lose sleep over a purchase I made a long time ago. However, if your goal is to really get rich slowly, you will probably want to buy a used car instead.
4. Nothing lasts forever
When I was making six figures a year I was convinced that it would last until retirement and that I was financially set for life. Call it naivete or "sticking my head in the sand", but I never thought that the money would run out. The truth is that nothing lasts forever, so enjoy it while you can.
Hindsight is 20/20
What else would I have done differently? I would have worked harder and smarter. I would have rented office space and ran things more like a real business. I would have hired employees to do the grunt work. I also would have expanded my business and not concentrated solely on doing the same thing over and over. My goal at the time wasn't to get rich slowly, but to enjoy life, and that I did.
I do have a few regrets, but I still had a great run while it lasted!
This article is about Entrepreneurship, Real-Life, Taxes
Great lessons. I'm sorry that the story ended by you making less than you used to. That has to be a rough situation. There's no doubt you learned lessons from it though. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Great article and good points made about the lessons learned. Has this experience made you give up on entrepreneurship or are you getting your advanced degree to help in your next endeavor?
Shawn @ Managing The Money Wars
So, how do you find a good CPA? Due to some changes in our finances last year, we decided it was time to get one, rather than doing our own taxes.
We've already filed an amended return, there have been problems every step of the way (generally found by our looking at something and thinking that doesn't look right or wondering, hey, where's the ____) and after I finish this comment I have to go deal with the next problem that popped up (wanted refund credited to estimated taxes but it appeared in our account instead).
Bleh. If I'm paying someone to do my taxes, I want to be reassured that someone who knows what they are doing and wants to do a good job is in charge. If it's going to be filled with questions and problems and the like, well, I could do that for myself for a lot cheaper!
And we did ask around and had two recommendations for this person. sigh.
Ask people for references, especially people who have similar financial situations to you, and who seem to have good judgement. If one CPA or accountant's name keeps coming up, that's the one I'd use.
You'll probably find the best CPA through word of mouth. You should interview the CPA also. $650 is about double what should have been charged for a CPA, at least in my area. http://entrepreneurs.about.com/cs/gettingstarted/a/choosingacpa.htm
The taxes thing is crazy. My fiance has just started freelancing and dealing with the taxes on our own is really the roughest part of that.
Thanks for the reminder of how important it is to deal with them properly!
At least you had lots a fun and still have a fully paid for Mercedes right!
Did something in the market place change for you to stop making money online?
Thanks so much for this interesting post. I am very sure you are not the first and will not be the last to go through this but it is nice to know that you didn't regret all your decisions.
The best thing to do I feel is to be cautious with your money and ensure you aren't tied into anything for too long. Obviously Taxes are something that cannot and should not be forgotton about but other things like buying a new car or buying an office building, can tie you into long periods of consistent payments. It would be, as you suggested, far better to think about buying a used car or renting office space so that, should you need to, you can get out of them without wasting money.
Great article! I love 'nothing lasts forever' or as my dad used to quote, 'they are not long, the days of wine and roses…' I admire your strength for learning from your mistakes and sharing that knowledge with us!
Very interesting account of making a large income and then losing it later. I feel for you on the "Find a Good CPA" part — I personally don't know a lot about taxes, and a good CPA could be a lifesaver upon business expansion. Too bad your CPA was terrible!
can someone explain about freelancing and paying quarterly taxes? I work full-time but also do some freelance editing work on the side (i am probably only pulling in a couple of thousand dollars a year doing this). how much must one be earning in order to have to pay these taxes quaterly? i have yet to receive a 1099 – and i assumed that i would simply report this money on my 2012 taxes next year and pay in one lump sum. any advice?
With that small of a side income quarterly payments may not be necessary because you have a job and are making regular payments through your employer. If this is the first year of your side business you are exempt from quarterly payments as there is no basis from which to determine an estimated payment. Next year your CPA or tax program will tell you if you need to make estimated payments.
Since you work FT you may also be able to increase your withholdings at your job to cover the taxes you have to pay for freelancing.
Thanks for sharing. It's not always easy to talk about mistakes.
I have always thought that money is transient, so it is best not to get too attached to having a certain amount of it. Things happen, sometimes we could have foreseen them, sometimes not.
I'm glad you took some joy in your riches while you had them. I do sometimes worry that people become so frugal and so focused on building wealth for the future, that they can forget about enjoying the here and now.
Think you would ever get into affiliate management again?
I love your point about the car. When my wife and i decided to get our finances in order. We sold both of our cars and bought 2 replacements for less than $5,000 total. It was amazing how much more money we had per month after we did that!
I'm not sure that was her point with the car but I like what you did! It seems very wise.
I quite like the last sentence. The poster learned some lessons, took some lumps – and had a great ride. Perfect? Hardly. But some of it sounds like a blast, and I don't detect much regret.
Letting go is a great feeling too!
Good lessons! Years ago I made quite a bit trading stocks and thought I was untouchable. Within a year I was wiped out!
Why did you ever need a $43,000 used car to "enjoy life"? Sounds kinda sad actually.
"Enjoy it while you can"
No, completely wrong message. Save and invest so you can enjoy forever.
I didn't like the message of this article either. Its possible to get rich quickly by starting a business or by studying a highly specialized profession at university.
Study subjects like medicine so you can become a nurse, doctor, physician's assistant or radiologist, or study accounting or finance, engineering, or computer science.
Its not just the degree but the SKILLS you learn while you study for your degree that get you a job. What good would it do me if I got a degree in computer science but then applied for a job as a cocktail waitress? There would be no way for me to apply the skills I learned in such a job.
As soon as you get a job, get enrolled in the company's 401 (k) or whatever their retirement plan is and if they offer matching then please take that. Or if you own your own business set up an SEP. Then if you still have extra money, I also suggest going to your credit union or bank and getting an IRA.
Get a savings account and start saving your money. I learned my lesson during the great recession, I'm saving up money so when the next recession or emergency comes I won't suffer like I did during this last recession and I won't blink if an emergency comes up.
It sounds to me like you needed to do more research about entrepreneurship, basic saving and investing, etc. Never go into things blindly. Going into a highly specialized profession or starting a needed business will get you into the middle class, allow you to save, invest, and have spending money.
I didn't like the article because it read more like, "I made a lot, spent it and C'est la vie (such is life)."
The last sentence of your article made it sound like you can't have a nice profession, save and have spending money. Because you can, my parents did it for decades, and its because they were professionals.
My own mother worked for a university before she decided to start her own business. The thing is that you overspent and that's not something that should be celebrated at a PF website. I feel this article was poorly written and poorly edited. I wonder if you learned anything at all.
What will keep you from becoming broke in the future?
Wow – that story is mine, to the letter, hope things are going well now, I am rebuilding, you can to

Sorry this item is currently sold out.
Please use this discount coupon for an
additional 5% off during checkout:
There''s so much to say about the Oakley A Frame Snowboard Goggles Shaun White but let''s keep it succinct. Time is money, right? Speaking of money, you won''t find a better value on the market because of how loaded the A Frames are with rad features. These include All Day Comfort Of Moisture Wicking Triple Layer Polar Fleece Foam that''ll change the way your face feels goggles. Also they''re made to be extremely flexible because of the Articulating O Matter Strap Outriggers Optimize Fit With Or Without A Helmet.
A Frame
Condoned by the best. Mr.White, thank you for your product. I heart these and you will too.
I have the High Intensity Yellow lens and before these googles I thought all googles were the same. OH NO! Such a difference. The H.I. Yellow lens makes you see when the snow is dumping and its the flatest light of the year. They are simply put amazing.
I've had these goggles for a while now. I always liked how they have so many different lenses to pick from. I wear these on cloudy days and at night with the High Intensity yellow lenses. They are comfortable. They could use a little more peripheral vision but other than that they are great. They come in many different frame colors too so they will match whatever you need to match with.
These goggles are great from the strap feeling fine on your hair to the easy adjustability with your gloves on. These goggles do it all. They never fog up even when they get snow inside of them. Just shake em' out and go. A+ Oakley
Even though it's asian friendly it's still worth checking out in a local store or the Oakley flagship stores. If anything, the fit is quite snug and secure on my face, unlike most other goggles I've tried on. Regardless, weather doesn't exactly prohibit the goggles, just the user (do research on the lenses). The lens attracts a few finger prints, especially the mirror finishes, but nothing terrible considering what they're going to be used for. The ventilation in and around the lens works PRETTY well and doesn't fog it up. Haven't tried it in heavier powder days, just for that few inches of snowfall in Tahoe recently. Also, the goggle frames don't hinder much of my view at all!... Though there's a little more of my frame visible in my field of view compared to the electric eg 2.5s.. O.therwise, it's not a deal breaker, especially given the comfort of these goggles.
These by far our the best goggles I've ever had! They are practicly indestructible and are scratch resistant which is awesome! I would reccomend these goggles to anybody!

LiveLIVE: Angelo Rodrigues murder trial
This live event has finished
- Two people accused of murdering Bournemouth man Angelo Rodrigues are standing trial at Winchester Crown Court.
- The 45-year-old died of multiple stab wounds following an incident at his flat in Coleman Road, West Howe on July 27, 2012.
- Tracy Mansell, 56, of Coleman Road, West Howe and James Kinsley, 40, of Hinton Road, Bournemouth, deny killing Mr Rodrigues.
- The case is being prosecuted by Graham Reeds QC.
- Kinsley is represented by Peter Birkett and Mansell by Mark Heyward QC.
Prosecution have finished opening the case.
The trial continues tomorrow when the first live witnesses are expected to give evidence.
PROS: It is said Tracy Mansell's responsibility for what she did was diminished. This depends on the analysis of her psychiatric state.
The prosecution don't accept this was a case of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
She lost her temper after a long-running dispute with her neighbour.
PROS: James Kinsley knew that Tracy Mansell had a bladed weapon and that he realised that she might use it with the intention required for murder and none the less he continued.
PROS: Tracy Mansell now appears to accept she inflicted all the injuries caused by the bladed weapon.
PROS: Tracy Mansell was arrested in James Kinsley's flat that evening.
James Kinsley was arrested the following day after handing himself in to police.
PROS: Police found one blade from a pair of scissors in Tracy Mansell's flat and scientists found it to be a fit with the scissor blade found near the bin store with Angelo's Rodrigue's DNA on it.
PROS: In Tracy Mansell's flat James Kinsley's jeans were found in the kitchen sink.
These jeans were heavily blood stained and matched a full DNA profile of Angelo Rodrigues.
One training shoe was found in her flat and matched a shoe left during the struggle in Angelo Rodrigues flat. Both were stained with his blood.
PROS: Angelo Rodrigues had 35 serperate injuries - 25 were caused by a sharp weapon.
It is the prosecution's case that Tracy Mansell used that weapon to inflict all the stab wounds to Angelo Rodrigues.
The marks of violence to the face - these were caused by Kinsley assaulting him by punching him with a clenched fist.
There were no defence wounds found on Angelo Rodrigues and this could be explained if he was pinned down by Kinsley at the time he was stabbed in the chest and legs by Mansell.
PROS: Police arrived at 7.35pm and found the lifeless body of Angelo Rodrigues slumped on the floor.
He had been stabbed in the lower abdomen, in both thighs and on both sides of the chest.
He also had injuries on his face and head.
A post mortem examination revealed Rodrigues died of multiple stab wounds.
PROS: The jury will be shown CCTV footage of Mansell and Kinsley and the behaviour of each of them is "remarkable".
A taxi driver said Mansell was drunk or stoned when he picked her up.
On her arrest, tests revealed Mansell was more than twice the limit for driving at the time of the "killing" and could have been suffering from the effects of cannabis and cocaine.
PROS: A police search near to the bins store recovered a drinks can and close by a single scissor blade with a black handle.
It was clean of blood but material was recovered from the blade which matched that of Angelo Rodrigues.
The DNA evidence supports the view this was the weapon that was used to stab him.
PROS: Mansell and Kinsley left the flat and walked to a friend's flat a short distance away where Mansell was heard to say she'd threatened someone with a pair of scissors.
"She was carrying a drinks can with a scissor blade which she dropped near to some wheelie bins.
"She had blood on her clothing and on her legs."
PROS: Mansell and Kinsley then went into Angelo Rodrigues' flat where he was beaten and stabbed repeatedly until he collapsed and died from the effect of losing so much blood.
PROS: "She saw Tracy Mansell was carrying a knife. She saw Mansell jabbing, launching forward towards Angelo Rodrigues.
"Then she saw drops of blood on the floor outside the door of his flat."
PROS: "When Angelo Rodrigues opened the door Tracy Mansell, angry, started shouting at swearing at him saying she was fed up of the noise and 'sick of him'."
PROS: A neighbour saw Mansell on the stairs in the flats complaining about Angelo Rodrigues and heard her say "she'd had enough of it".
"She (Mansell) was angry.
"She knocked on the door. Then she banged on the letterbox, then she kicked the door."
PROS: "On Friday July 27 at about 7pm Tracy Mansell went up to flat E angry and armed with a bladed weapon in order to confront Angelo Rodrigues."
PROS: The defendant James Kinsley, known as Jim or Jimmy, lived about four and a half miles away in Hinton Road. He is Tracy Mansell's boyfriend/partner.
PROS: "It is fair to say neither of them were good neighbours.
"Both were known to be argumentative. Both could disturb others with their music and by shouting or by generally being loud.
"One neighbour thought that Tracy Mansell and Angelo Rodrigues had been feuding with each other for years."
PROS: In July 2012 Tracy Mansell lived in a three storey block of flats in Coleman Road, Bournemouth, with Angelo Rodrigues.
She lived in flat A on the ground floor and Mr Rodrigues lived in flat E on the first floor.
Prosecutor Graham Reeds QC is now going to open the case.
Jury selection is now taking place in court.

Natalie [31] DH [40] 9/01, 1/06 NaturallyNatalie's Hair Accessories!
Thanks ladies! I know its a little early for maternity clothes but I am glad I made the switch. I am SO much more comfortable now at work.
It really isn't too early. It is 100% based on your comfort level!! I was in maternity between 9 and 10 weeks this time, too. With your first, you're lucky if you're in maternity in the 16-20 week range, some even later, but with subsequent pregnancies your body just remembers. It's wild!
My belly from yesterday. Ps I'm horrible at "selfies" so sorry for my weird face lol
YAY a face and a belly! Beautiful bump Jess!!
Aww thanks ladies
I feel like I look like I'm just eating too much and not pg. Although I have lost 4 lbs. Oh well.
Looks just like mine! Yay! Beautiful
Thanks y'all. 😊 I'm ready to be so huge and miserable, that there's no mistaking it. I'm going to cherish every second of it!
ETA...a progression, because I like to see the changes side-by-side
Definitely thicker around the middle/butt/hips...no real bump yet, not long now I'm sure !
Thought I'd add a pic of me in "real clothes", lol, since I don't actually dress like this and I feel like I look a little poochier in these pics :
rsz_3rscn0009.jpg rsz_rscn0013.jpg

- Small Group Personal Training for both Prenatal and Postnatal Women
According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), if you exercised and were physically fit before pregnancy you can safely continue exercising throughout the pregnancy.
However, always check with your physician before beginning or continuing an exercise program.
Exercise may not be safe if you have any of the following conditions:
- preterm labor in current or past pregnancies
- vaginal bleeding
- cervical problems
- leaking of amniotic fluid
- shortness of breath
- dizziness or fainting
- decreased fetal activity or other complications
- increased heart rate (tachycardia)
- certain health problems such as high blood pressure or heart disease
Types of exercise to avoid during pregnancy:
- horseback riding
- waterskiing
- scuba diving
- high altitude skiing
- contact sports
- any exercise that can cause a serious fall
- exercising on your back after the first trimester (because of reduced blood flow to the uterus)
- vigorous exercise in hot, humid weather, as pregnant women are less efficient at exchanging heat
- exercise involving the Valsalva maneuver (holding one's breath during exertion), which can cause an increased intra-abdominal pressure
