Investors can Rein in College Savings Plan Fees
BOSTON (AP) - Rising college costs have become an election campaign issue. President Obama spoke at three campuses this week, vowing to keep student loans affordable. He's also threatened to cut federal aid for colleges that fail to keep tuition increases in check.
Obama is spotlighting the issue because he's aware how many voters fret about paying for a child's education without draining retirement savings. As a necessity, parents and their children should pay close attention to the costs they'll pay and the schools they select.
Yet many apparently are giving comparatively little thought to another piece of the equation, the cost of saving for college. How else to explain the large proportion of parents choosing college savings plans that charge steep investment fees, despite the widespread availability of affordable plans?
It's an important consideration, because those fees can significantly cut into investment returns and the accumulated savings.
Consider recent research on 529 college savings plans, named for the section number of the federal tax code from which they were created. These state-sponsored investment accounts permit withdrawals for college expenses to be made free of federal taxes.
The Coalition of Mutual Fund Investors found that plans sold through financial advisers or brokers charge more than twice as much in annual fees than plans that parents choose directly through states and manage on their own. The public-policy advocacy organization examined plans in 30 states and Washington D.C. that offer both "adviser-sold" and "direct-sold" 529s.
On average, the adviser-sold plans were 2.15 times as expensive. That calculation factors in annual expenses for mutual funds offered in those plans' investment menus, as well as program management and certain other fees.
The difference was larger when the fund investor organization also included initial sales charges and account maintenance fees that an investor would pay over 10 years - the time span many parents spend building up a 529 account. That comparison found adviser-sold plans cost 2.73 times as much, on average.
In dollar terms, the 10-year cost of a $10,000 investment was an average $1,944 for adviser-sold plans compared with $712 for direct-sold plans. "It seems to me that the cost disparity is more than the advice ought to be worth," says Niels Holch, director of CMFI.
The organization's findings are in line with the conclusions of Morningstar, which rates 529 plans. Last fall, it found that adviser-sold plans charged expense ratios of 1.47 percent on average, compared with 0.54 percent for direct-sold plans. Those are the ongoing expenses to cover operating costs, expressed as a percentage of assets in the mutual funds a 529 account invests in.
Despite that huge gap, many parents opt for the higher-cost plans. The $133 billion in total 529 assets is split about equally between adviser- and direct-sold plans.

Memory Makers
On the publication of scrapbooks by legendary photographer and bon vivant Cecil Beaton, fellow nostalgist Charlotte Moss revels in the art of cut and paste
Scrapbooks are diaries of a sort. While I have yet to come across a scrapbook with scandalous confessions or incriminating evidence, a private collection of pictures and ephemera can reveal volumes about the creator's life.
Scrapbooking does not have a reputation as cool, which has always struck me as odd. Few other art forms invite you to employ your taste and wit as you mash up your favorite images and ideas.
It is the most democratic and accessible art, and according to the Craft & Hobby Association, it is the top-selling category in the country's $27 billion craft and hobby industry. I remember creeping into my grandmother's attic and finding a trunk with my mother's scrapbook of valentines. I felt as though I had met my mother in a different time. All of my life, I have created scrapbooks and collected others from inspiring women such as Elsie de Wolfe, Pauline Trigère and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.
Weighing in at 14 pounds, "Cecil Beaton: The Art of the Scrapbook" (Assouline) offers reproductions from the iconic Vogue and Vanity Fair photographer's personal scrapbooks. It showcases images that Beaton took as well as pictures taken by others that he admired. They're arranged in idiosyncratic collages and spreads, ironic juxtapositions and "once in a while just a great picture," New York gallerist James Danziger wrote in his forward to the book. In an interview I asked Mr. Danziger about the collection of images chosen from Beaton's scrapbooks for this volume. He said they are like a "valentine to a liberal arts education, from Greco-Roman statues to pop stars."
The photo spreads selected were distilled from approximately 40 scrapbooks and over 8,000 photographs from the Cecil Beaton Archive. Beaton started collecting postcards when he was three years old. Later on, his country house weekends were not complete without a session of "cutting and pasting," comparing notes and reviewing the pages of a previous weekend's accomplishment. In his diaries, Beaton describes a scene at Wilsford, the home of his great friend Stephen Tennant. "We looked at scrapbooks of old photographs and [Tennant] rhapsodized suitable texts," he wrote. These were gatherings one would have paid to observe.
From bullfighters, bodybuilders, dancers, society figures, the Royal family, actors and artists, there is a commonality that struck the book publisher Martine Assouline as she edited the scrapbook pages selected for the book. She described it to me as a "lesson in elegance."
'Memories are precious. Protect them. Be creative, add, subtract, layer, annotate.'
Some might say the proliferation of digital cameras and the attendant Facebook and Flickr pages have rendered physical scrapbooks less relevant than they used to be. But why not see them as newfangled iterations of an age-old artform? Witness the creativity that users are unleashing on Polyvore, the scrapbook-y fashion website that lets users mix and match pictures of clothing, accessories and arty backgrounds to create one-of-a-kind "sets."
As in all, endeavors that become systematized, CAVEAT EMPTOR.... Homogeneity lurks. Proceed with caution. Memories are precious; protect them. Personalize them. Be creative, add, subtract, layer, annotate. My favorite quote from David Hockney says it all: "The thing about high tech is that you always end up using scissors."
—Charlotte Moss is a designer based in New York.

A little challenge that I've seen floating around on a few sites. I decided that I should start one of my own. There are a lot of people in my life that I think deserve an apology. I want to let them know how much they mean to me, so this is where I'm doing it. This is really more for my own personal use, but feel free to read it if you'd like.

@JimmyXD Nahh you don't look stupid :) I'm doing it just to force myself to write every day, but it's basically a series of letters (one per day for 30 days) to different people- so for example, day 1 is 'your best friend' and another day could be 'the person who broke your heart'. Stuff like that...I hope this helps...I'm awful at explaining things >.<

Fancy a spa vacation or a brisk business trip to Iraqi Kurdistan? Marketers are flocking to the mountainous terrain of Northern Iraq, to cash in on the relatively untapped market in the Arab world, even if they have to dodge danger on their way there
July 29, 2012 9:03 by Priyanka Pradhan
But before the world goes about hailing Iraq as the best thing to happen to the Arab world since grilled halloumi, it is crucial for brands not to rush in. For any economy to flourish, more so, for a nation with such a sordid past, it takes much more than fast track investments in luxury hotels and fancy airports. What Kurdistan probably needs is a massive branding exercise and an image overhaul, along with a well chalked out strategy to position itself as a market just waiting to explode- in a good way.
There is also the danger of too much interest too soon, which could smother the Kurds or fail to adapt to the Kurdish way of life due to lack of understanding and insight. This could prove to be catastrophic for brands as it could easily turn the region's political debris into an equally devastating pile of cola cans, plastic and disappointment.
Challenges for private sector investments include disparity in the organizational and legal structures in addition to inadequate infrastructure. Apart from this, the Iraqi government and the Autonomous Kurdish region also have to look at offering stability of exchange rates, favourable tax and customs exemptions, as well as an advanced financial system.
While some brands have already pitched their tents in the rocky terrain, others are waiting to test the Kurdish waters. Whichever way the tide turns for Iraq, it is going to be spectacular to watch- somewhat like a chance to watch the birth of a star but then again, some of the most massive stars are known to have the shortest lives. All eyes are now on Iraq, waiting and watching.

I don't need a lot of research to be confident in stating that never before have I seen a movie open with the hero delivering a baby during a gun battle, severing the umbilical cord with a gunshot, and then killing a villain by penetrating his brain with a raw carrot. Yes, a carrot will do that in this movie. It will do a lot of things.
"Shoot 'em Up," written and directed by the gung-ho Michael Davis, is the most audacious, implausible, cheerfully offensive, hyperactive action picture I've seen since, oh, "Sin City," which in comparison was a chamber drama. That I liked "Shoot 'em Up" is a consequence of a critical quirk I sometimes notice: I may disapprove of a movie for going too far, and yet have a sneaky regard for a movie that goes much, much farther than merely too far. This one goes so far, if you even want to get that far, you have to start half-way there, which means you have to be a connoisseur of the hard-boiled action genre and its serio-comic subdivision (or sub-basement).
The film opens in one of those grimy cityscapes where a little graffiti might brighten things up. A man with 10 o'clock shadow (Clive Owen) sits on a bench eating a carrot. A pregnant woman is chased past by men intent on murdering her. "Bloody hell," says the man, a phrase I find so much more elegant than "What the foosball underwater clockmaker kitchen," if you enjoy creating acronyms. He defends the woman in a hail of gunfire, while delivering her baby, ramming the carrot into his victim's cranium, and finding himself on the run with an infant in his arms, which is also how Owen spent much of "Children of Men," also with people shooting at him, so you could say he looks right at home.
The Owen character is named Mr. Smith. The leader of his enemies is Mr. Hertz (Paul Giamatti). No Mr. Brown around anywhere, but Tarantino seems to hover over the action like a guardian skycam. I am not sure why Mr. Smith is so capable during acts of violence, but it may be because Owen practiced up while he was being considered for the role of James Bond. Yes, that might explain the scene where he continues a gun battle while jumping out of an airplane and neglecting for the longest time to open his parachute.
That was probably one of the scenes Michael Davis drew by hand, thousands of drawings to give the illusion of animation when he made his pitch to the studio. This is a determined guy. I remember 10 years ago he wanted me to see his "Eight Days a Week" at the Slamdance Film Festival. I was covering the Sundance festival, which is itself three full-time jobs, but he kept after me, ominously brandishing a carrot. I made the trek uphill in the snow to a hotel lobby where his film was being shown, and found a spot on a sofa. And the movie was a wonderful comedy, about a kid so in love with a girl that he sets up camp and lives in her front yard a whole summer before she finally agrees to go out with him. So there's your auteur theory at work: Davis likes movies about men who will go to any lengths for a woman.
Comedy is a tricky genre to give an unknown indie his start, however, so Davis switched to the usual indie port of entry, horror, making among others, a movie about road kill that wants to kill you. That's the kind of movie you want to back up and run over it again.
"Shoot 'em Up" will become, I suspect, some kind of legend in the murky depths of extreme action. What elevates it from the depraved to the deserving is a sense of style, a sense of warped humor and the acting. Clive Owen brings what credibility there could possibly be to his character, and makes us believe it as much as we possibly can (not much, in both cases, but points for effort). Paul Giamatti, Hollywood's favorite nerd, is surprisingly, teeth-gnashingly evil. And Monica Bellucci is DQ, the hooker with the heart of gold, who becomes Mr. Smith's partner and the baby's surrogate mother. I thought and thought about what "DQ" could possibly stand for, and finally had my eureka moment: Dairy Queen.
The plot (two words that should be followed by a hollow laugh) involves Mr. Hertz being hired by Senator Rutledge (Daniel Pilon), a Democrat who is running for president but learns he is dying and can only be saved by the bone marrow of infants. In the old days, when political campaigns didn't run so long, there would have been no time to impregnate surrogate volunteers and harvest their offspring, another argument against the extended presidential campaign season.
Man, am I gonna get mail from people who hate this picture. I'll fall back on my stock defense: Did I, or did I not, accurately describe the film? You have been informed. Now eat your carrots.

The NIKE SFB Field Duty Boot is built with the latest athletic footwear technology to meet the demands of first responders. Constructed from breathable canvas and durable synthetic upper with a dynamic lacing system for ultra-lightweight comfort and lockdown. The outsole is equipped with an aggressive traction pattern and internal rock shield for multi-surface grip and puncture protection.
Parts of the forefoot are puncture- and laceration-resistant, while the midsole is super-cushioned and extra flexible, ensuring a smooth heel-to-toe transition. The rubber outsole features reverse edges and a slightly raised heel for better grip when walking and running downhill. A dynamic lacing system helps keep the foot in place and maintains a comfortable, customized fit during extended wear. The Nike Special Field Boot is built with breathable, quick-drying fibers to keep the foot comfortable in warm conditions.
NIKE SFB Field Duty Boot Black features:
I wore these for 30 minutes and my feet were killing me. Luckily I took my old boots to work with me so I could change. The sole is stiff and thin without cushion and support on the inside. Its basically a piece of leather with a rubber sole put together and called a boot.
If you are military or law enforcement and you are use to wearing boots you are going to love these! they fit nice and are comfortable from the first day you put them on.
I've worn 4 of the other model before trying these. The first time wearing them my toe got a little raw. I put a bandaid on it for a week until the boot got broken in. It's not as flexible as the other brand, but they hold up better. I really don't have any complaints except be patient when you first try them. Once the boot bends to your foot they are pretty comfy.
Best of the over eight pairs I have bought from galls
These boots are very comfortable.
That being said, I have had them and worn them every other shift for a year now. The rubber sole where I walk is worn down to the point the rubber sole is breaking.
The tread is also not the best for slicker surfaces, like a wet street.
I own this book in the desert tan for the military. I threw out my Altima's after wearing this boot. The boot fits like a slipper and is extremely light. Nico sounds like he did not get the right size. (another review) I found that i fit into the 9 and 9 1/2 and i picked the 9 1/2.
The shortcoming of the boot to me is the leather. It scuffs easily and the color is noticeable (this is the tan color) This new model addresses this by changing the leather and reinforces other features.
I recommend this boot to everyone that i talk about when they are looking at buying boots
Because I'm a huge fan of the Nike free running shoes, I figured these boots would be just as light and comfortable. I was not disappointed. I've been wearing these boots for 9 months and have had absolutely no issues. I've pulled numerous 12 hour standing shifts and these boots stay comfortable and my feet feel much less fatigued than in the Rocky's I used to wear. My one complaint is that they don't have the side zipper option, which would then make them perfect.
The sole on this boot is to stiff. They are very uncomfortable. Your feet hurt just after a few hours and was rubbing my little toe raw. Terrible boot if your going to be standing on your feet for 8 hours and sometimes up to 16 hours. Worst duty boot ever.

Time and frequency domain features of the surface electromyogram (EMG) signal acquired from multiple channels have frequently been investigated for use in controlling upper-limb prostheses. A common control method is EMG-based motion classification. We propose the use of EMG signal whitening as a preprocessing step in EMG-based motion classification. Whitening decorrelates the EMG signal and has been shown to be advantageous in other EMG applications including EMG amplitude estimation and EMG-force processing. In a study of ten intact subjects and five amputees with up to 11 motion classes and ten electrode channels, we found that the coefficient of variation of time domain features (mean absolute value, average signal length and normalized zero crossing rate) was significantly reduced due to whitening. When using these features along with autoregressive power spectrum coefficients, whitening added approximately five percentage points to classification accuracy when small window lengths were considered.

Once plagued with two golf carts that chugged along ever so slowly, Sonoma Valley High School now has an almost-new, donated cart zipping about, with a second replacement a twinkling possibility, awaiting another wave of community support.
Used mainly by the maintenance crew for hauling, one of the sorry old carts was pressed into passenger service when Principal Kathleen Hawing recently chauffeured a guest across campus. At that moment it was suddenly apparent new wheels were on the high school wish list.
Teacher Support Network volunteer Steve Kyle spends several days a week on campus and had witnessed what he called "the semi-comatose" carts in slow motion. So he sent out an email to his extensive contact list in search of a donation.
"I was hoping someone had one they weren't using," he said. Kyle is also a member of Sonoma Golf Cub and asked Jason Goss, the course maintenance manager, if he had a cart to spare. The carts used by golfers are all leased, but it so happened Goss had a barely-used one in the maintenance facility that the club owned. "I'll see what I can do," Goss told Kyle.
The next day, golf pro John McMullen gave Kyle the good news that Sonoma Golf Club would donate the cart to SVHS. "Anytime we can help out the community, especially the schools, we're game for that," McMullen said. "We'll survive without it," he said about the cart, which is in great condition. "They needed it more than we do."

BlackJack Pro Free is BlackJack for serious BlackJack players.
Features include:
Features include:
* 10 different card counting systems
* 10 skill levels ranging from Rookie to Card Shark
* 1-8 decks
* CHEAT mode
* Lots more!
Not very good I know they say these games don't cheat, but if I got the hands that the dealer gets I'd be rich
Faulty App Crashes in opening. Everytime all the time without fail. You can count on it that it will crash. Worst app for Blackjack ever.
A blackjack game It was fun, but now all it does is crash, so I can't play it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple times and even restarted my phone, but it won't start. As a consequence, I was forced to uninstall and download a different blackjack game.
Works for me Lots of the old reviews say the app miscounts. I haven't noticed that. Maybe the issue has been fixed. Graphics could be improved, but it gets the job done with features that improve my playing ability.
Terrible It seem the cards are in the dealers faver all the tim and you hardly win
Cheats Game Sux don't waste your time dealer always wins

Energy Policy:
Other Nations' Policies to Reduce Oil and Coal Use in Transport and Industry
RCED-93-139: Published: May 28, 1993. Publicly Released: Jun 30, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined energy use in Canada, France, Germany, Japan and South Korea, focusing on: (1) factors influencing the type and amount of energy the countries use; and (2) the countries' key energy policies and programs to promote energy efficiency and oil and coal conservation in their industrial and transportation sectors.
GAO found that: (1) the factors influencing energy consumption include the price and availability of energy resources, climate, population density, and economic factors; (2) energy intensity has generally decreased in all countries except South Korea; (3) industrial sectors have lowered energy consumption and transportation sectors have increased energy consumption, particularly oil, due to the increased number of vehicles and distances traveled; (4) oil consumption and intensity have decreased while coal consumption has increased; (5) Japan and France have increased their use of nuclear energy due to their lack of natural energy resources; (6) Germany has decreased the percentage that fossil fuels contribute to its energy supply despite its high domestic coal production; (7) Canada produces more energy than it consumes, but its widely dispersed population, cold climate, and low energy prices make it one of the most energy-intensive countries; (8) South Korea has increased its energy consumption and intensity by rapidly modernizing its economy; (9) the United States remains relatively energy intensive due to energy availability and low prices; (10) the countries impose taxes on motor fuels and the purchase and ownership of automobiles and have substantially higher gasoline prices than the United States due to the taxes; (11) gasoline taxes make up the bulk of energy and oil taxes; (12) the countries' vehicle taxes, in general, vary with the capacity of an automobile engine; (13) the United States imposes similar but smaller taxes on fuels and vehicles, and is emphasizing converting future vehicles to nonpetroleum fuels; (14) the countries' policies for promoting energy efficiency and conservation in the industrial sectors include special tax treatment and subsidies for investment in energy-saving equipment and mandated energy audits for large industrial energy consumers; (15) the United States provides no direct financial incentives for energy conservation, but does make some use of energy audits; and (16) the countries' policies aim at influencing the choice among different types of fuels and ensuring stable oil supplies and prices.

by Lefebvre, Henri
The Critique of Everyday Life is perhaps the richest, most prescient work by one of the twentieth centurys greatest philosophers. A historian and sociologist, Lefebvre developed his ideas over seven decades through intellectual confrontation with figures as diverse as Bergson, Breton, Sartre, Debord and Althusser.
Written at the birth of postwar consumerism, though only now translated into English, the Critique is a book of enormous range and subtlety. Lefebvre takes as his starting point and guide the trivial details of quotidian experience: an experience colonized by the commodity, shadowed by inauthenticity, yet which remains the only source of resistance and change. Whether he is exploring the commercialization of sex or the disappearance of rural festivities, analyzing Hegel or Charlie Chaplin, Lefebvre always returns to the ubiquity of alienation, the necessity of revolt. This is an enduringly radical text, untimely today only in its intransigence and optimism.
This third volume of the Critique of Everyday Life completes Lefebvres monumental project. It seeks to shed light on changes inscribed within everyday life, and at the same time to reveal certain virtualities of the everyday, taking into account the crisis of modernity but also the decisive assertion of technological modernism.

Snap Pea Salad with Burrata
Bloomfield loves making this salad with black mint, which you'll find in spring and summer at farmers' markets.
Loading Comments...
We're all for keeping a bag or three of peas in our freezers for dinner emergency situations, but this time of year, when the peas are fresh and in season, we dream about eating them for every meal. From a classic pea soup to an inspired cocktail (really!), these are our favorite ways to prepare peas.

Nice job with the video editing, and the way all the vids fit together.
However, I feel the menu layout could be improved

Nice background, but I also think that the menus aren't that great.
Posted 04 January 2004 - 03:41 AM
nice start man but like the other s said u might want to edit the menu
Posted 07 January 2004 - 07:40 PM
I decided that the menu should be that way, because i want the video to be the focus of the skin, not the menus. It all gets the job done anyways... Real pretty in action

Standing room only.
A number of factors led to this train trip being memorable. firstly, there are apparently some rail strikes going on in Germany, second was the fact is some kind of a mega long weekend holiday for everyone, next was the fact that when all seats on a train are booked they just keep selling tickets and don't tell you, you will be standing for the …
Our vacation starts
Getting up at 3:00 am is not nice, but the highway to the airport was empty. Checking in with Air Berlin was a new experience, but not quite positively. All information that we had keyed in for the online check in was irrelevant, we had to give them the complete information again. Arriving in Düsseldorf was no problem, up in the air and back down again. We had a 2.5 hour layover so we were able to fill our stomachs with a decent breakfast. Air Berlin had another check ...
First looks
After some online reconnaissance we ventured into the city today for a look around. We drove to a local train station and had no trouble buying day passes from a vending machine for €6 each. Parking was a little drama - the 'park n ride' we drove into closed at 9pm and there was a chance we'd be back later than that. So we parked on the street and stressed about getting a ticket (no, thankfully). Trains were comfortable, clean and convenient, and ran ...
The Federal Republic of Germany has 16 states (including the city-states of Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen) and they include districts and then thousands of municipalities. Ivonne and Christiaen Bluecher's house is in the municipality of Henstedt-Ulzburg (pop. 28,000) within the state of Schleswig-Holstein. Their house is about a 30-minute drive north of ...
To Copenhagen
... to Europe with dolphins jumping at the bow, Island-hopping through the warm green waters of the Philippines, last year with Sisi crossing the black water near the Lofoten. And of course fishing with Hendrik north of the arctic circle in the midnight sun, when we almost lived on the sea. Yes, the sea owns my heart.
After crossing the Kattengat the train brings us to Copenhagen where Sarwat has a room ready for us. Gratefully I now sip my tea and write this note.

Lewis Morley(1925-2013), Photographer
Sitter in 5 portraits
Artist of 303 portraits
Best known for his photographs of Christine Keeler and Joe Orton, Morley chronicled the new idols of sixties society in a style that captured the buoyant spirit of the times. He took up photography in 1954 and initially worked on magazines assignments for Tatler, Go! and She. Much of his work throughout the sixties was devoted to theatre photography, and he was introduced into the satirical scene of the early 1960s through his studio above Peter Cook's Establishment Club in Soho; this led on to photographing the cast of Beyond the Fringe and contributing photographs to Private Eye. Morley emigrated to Australia in 1971.

Napoli are on the verge of signing Tim Matavz "next week," according to his agent, despite an offer from Olympique Lyonnais.
The 1.88m tall Slovenian striker currently plays for Groningen in Holland and had previously announced a deal to join Napoli on a free transfer in the summer.
It was reported this weekend that Lyon had intercepted talks with a new offer to bring the 22-year-old to Ligue 1.
"It's not true," agent Nusret Jashari told footmercato.net.
"I want to reassure the Napoli directors that everything has always been fine for Tim's transfer, even if nothing is official yet.
"Matavz should put pen to paper on a Napoli contract next week."
