ATLANTA -- And now for a brief visit to the edge of reason.
When the New York Rangers add two talented, veteran centers in Scott Gomez and Chris Drury in the offseason to a lineup that already boasts multiple Stanley Cup winners Jaromir Jagr and Brendan Shanahan and the best young goalie in the game in Henrik Lundqvist, reason tells you, emphatically even, that this is going to be a good hockey team. Maybe even a Stanley Cup team.
And yet after dropping a 5-3 decision to the previously winless Atlanta Thrashers on Thursday night -- a Thrashers team so desperate, so discombobulated, it fired coach Bob Hartley the day before -- the Rangers are a scant two points better than the Thrashers with a 2-4 record.
Indeed, after the worst outing for the Rangers in this young season, the two teams share a number of similarities, not the least of which is being dead last in their respective divisions and a rather uncomfortable closeness at the very bottom of the Eastern Conference.
if the standings suggest a story of two teams in dire straits, the attitude in the New York Rangers' dressing room reflects an entirely different story. Perhaps that attitude is misguided or perhaps it merely reflects what most hockey people believe -- that this New York Rangers team is far too good to be this bad.
"I don't think this team is discouraged. To me the makeup of this team is not discouraged, it's not frustrated, it's not packing it in or turning on each other or going separate ways. I really do feel that the resolve is determined to get this right," said Shanahan, who scored his first goal of the season late in the third period after the Thrashers had built leads of 4-0 and 5-1.
"It's too good of a group and I don't mean that just talentwise, I mean peoplewise it's too good of a group and I truly believe that the group will work its way through it," Shanahan added.
The Rangers' unpredictably slow start is proof once again you cannot make chemistry or assume that it is created simply by slapping a sweater on players, no matter how talented, no matter how well-intentioned. The game is not a math formula and in the case of Drury and Gomez, one plus one doesn't necessarily add up to two unless, of course, you're counting the paltry number of Rangers wins.
"We have to realize that 0-0 after the first period is probably a victory for us. Going into the third period, if you're tied or winning, you're doing a good job," coach Tom Renney explained after the game.
"But we have to understand you build a game and it doesn't happen in the first 10 minutes. And I think what's happening right now is that we want so badly to get winning and feel good about our effort that we sort of forget that process."
Did Renney think there was an element in the dressing room of players expecting things to fall into place simply because Drury and Gomez happened to drop into the mix as opposed to having good things happen by more traditional means, such as hard work?
"I think that's sort of inevitable," he said.
Renney talked before the game about chemistry being akin to "trying to get the hand in the glove."
"You don't want to force-feed [the issue]," he added. "You sort of have to leave them to their own devices. We've got to let them sort it out."
But at 2-4 with only 13 goals to their credit, the question facing Renney and the Rangers is: When does patience bleed into simply being adrift?
Already Renney has dramatically revamped the team's offensive look a couple of times.
Gomez, one of the game's most gifted playmakers, is on his second go-round playing with Jagr. Thursday's performance did little to suggest this is magic in the making as the Rangers failed to score at even strength and have yet to win a game in which they gave up the first goal.
Shanahan spent most of the night playing with Martin Straka and Blair Betts while Drury, once penciled in as Shanahan's pivot, played with Petr Prucha and Ryan Callahan. Drury added two power-play assists Thursday but that forward combination has combined for only two goals through the team's first six games.
If there is one thing that has characterized the Rangers' play, it is an uncharacteristic tentativeness. There is a tendency to overthink, to over-pass.
They entered the game 26th in the league on the power play -- a short jump above the Thrashers, who began the night with the 28th-ranked power-play unit (although the teams did combine for five power-play goals and one shorthanded marker on the night).
Lundqvist, who was victimized by shoddy defense throughout the evening, suggested maybe his team needs to take more chances, play with a little more abandon.
Certainly last season's squad, the one that swept the Thrashers in the playoffs and pushed the Buffalo Sabres to six games in the second round, appeared to be much more aggressive in terms of its forecheck and creating chances.
Still, the Rangers entered Thursday's game with the second-most shots per game in the league, averaging 35 per game and adding 36 more in the loss to Atlanta.
"We've got some guys in there that have gone through this before. We know the potential. We've just got to keep working hard," Gomez said after the game.
"I'm sure everyone outside of this room is laughing at us, but we're going to be all right," the longtime Devil said.
If the Thrashers, who won with GM Don Waddell behind the bench, have a long climb, mentally, to get back in this still-young season, the Rangers' mental climb seems much shorter given the accomplishments of their lineup.
As for the angst that continues to percolate among the Rangers' faithful, most of whom were expecting the team to blaze a path out of the gate, Gomez chuckled.
"It's too early. But that's what New York's all about. That's what makes it hockey. That's the fun part," he said.
When you're 2-4 and resting rather uncomfortably in 14th place in the conference, fun might be a bit of a relative term.

Comments about TCP 65 Watt Equivalent, 10 Watt, 120 Volt Dimmable 25,000-Hr 4100K Cool White LED R20 Bulb:
I had to wait a short time for these to come back into stock, but the wait was well worth it. These bulbs are very bright, casting a white light, as opposed to the yellowish light that the former halogens cast. I have only installed them in my kitchen so far, but will be installing them all around my home to replace all the other ceiling can lights that currently have 65w spots. I like the ability to dim as well. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a cost effective (10 watts) alternative to traditional halogens, or spots.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Almost gave up on finding a brighter replacements for the 40W R20 bulbs in my living room track lighting. Bulbs.com came through with several options of which these were the brightest based on the description. They weren't cheap but well worth it as the light is both brighter and whiter.

Volusion Review
Need Help Choosing?
- Date Established
- 1999
- Location
- Austin, TX
Volusion is one the largest eCommerce shopping cart platforms on the market today. Founded by Kevin Sproles in his bedroom, Volusion has now grown to around 500 employees, serving over 40k stores. They serve everyone from eCommerce neophytes to big names such as intel, 3M, National Geographic, and the Chicago Tribune. With over $90 Million in total funding, they are definitely continuing to expand.
Based out of Austin, Texas and operating since 1999, Volusion is a fully cloud-based eCommerce shopping cart. It is one of the most popular all-in-one solutions out there, with features includingL building a website, web hosting, the ability to add products and manage inventory, checkout, payment processing, order management, customer management, newsletters, and much more. It has seen a lot of changes in its 16+ years of operation, which have kept it consistently near the top of a rapidly changing market.
Volusion has come a long way throughout its evolution. My recent round of research has yielded another optimistic boost in my overall impressions. If you're gathering candidates for a Shopping Cart "short list," Volusion is likely to make the cut. Check out the full details below.
All Volusion plans come with a fully functional 14-day (no credit card required) trial. There are no setup or cancellation fees either. The prices listed below are for monthly subscriptions, but if you opt to pay annually, you'll receive a 10% discount.
- Mini – $15/month
- Unlimited storage

- Premium – $135/month

Keep in mind that you will definitely need to purchase a yearly SSL certificate before you can start doing business. They offer the most affordable one, coming in at $89 per year, but they also offer certificates provided by more trusted names in the industry.
Volusion does not charge any transaction fees with their monthly subscription, if you use own payment gateway. If you opt to use their in-house gateway, Volusion offers a competitive 2.15% rate. However, from what I've read, they do have a tendency to hit you with bandwidth overages and "up-sell" charges, which can become very pricey. If you anticipate that your store will be eating up a lot of bandwidth, then do yourself a favor and opt for a higher price point.
Note: You can check your bandwidth stats by going to: my.volusion.com > view stats > Stats for www.yourdomainname.com. Make sure you keep an eye on your bandwidth.
They used to charge you $25/month to remove the "Powered by Volusion" link at the bottom of your site (in the footer). i inquired about this with their customer support, and got official confirmation that this is no longer the case. Apparently, all you have to do is ask them to remove it, and they will do so free of charge.
Lastly, if you are looking for an Enterprise-sized platform, Volusion has recently launched Mozu to fill that need.
Web-Hosted or Licensed:
Note: Volusion used to outsource their hosting to Rackspace, but in 2009 they brought everything in-house. Though they've had some bumps in the road, things are finally starting to get better. A recent emphasis on improving their reputation here has been successful; I spoke with their Senior Brand Manager, who informed me that they have invested millions into their hosting infrastructure in the last few years, and are now experiencing a reliable 99.98% uptime.
Ease of Use:
After you sign up, you are automatically logged in to your dashboard, which is filled with demo data. I'm always glad to see this simple onboarding feature, since it feels like so much of a commitment to load in tons of my own legitimate data when all I want to do is poke around. From this demo dashboard, you can either dive into the deep end and toy around with settings, or you can follow their suggested links, which are impossible to miss at the top of the screen; choose from Watch a Video, Choose a Template, Update Your Logo, Add Some Products, and Start Selling. The video is merely a trailer, the basic message of which is "data crunching in Volusion is pretty much a digital watermelon mojito." The rest of the quick links don't really function as walkthroughs or tutorials, but only take you to the sections of the dashboard to get your basic info customized. It's handy, but slightly underwhelming if you are looking for guidance.
If you're looking for something more substantial, the right sidebar has much more useful links, including quick access to several video tutorials, the Knowledge Base, and – oh there it is! – a "Getting Started Guide," which brings you to a more systemized procedure for all the things a new user will need to know.
As for daily use post-setup, the Volusion admin interface is clean and easy to navigate. I encountered a few glitches when I used it from a mobile device, such as sticky menus that don't want to un-stick even after you've made your selection, and the inability to scroll the page if you happen to catch any piece of content (make sure your navigation swipes start from completely empty page space.) Aside from that, I have few complaints. You can easily view any changes to your store with a "live preview" button, always available at the top left of your window.
Products were easy to add, as well. The Volusion dev team has listened to some customer feedback in this area, and has actually made some of the more advanced features more difficult to find. This is actually a good thing; if you're just plugging in some basic product info, you won't get bogged down in information overload. But if you're looking for those advanced settings, they haven't gone away.
Searching through orders, customers, products, and vendors is a cinch with their built-in search feature.
Overall, Volusion does a great job of making their software user friendly.
Hardware and Software Requirements:
You only need a good internet connection and an updated browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) to run Volusion. There are no hardware or operating system requirements, but it's obviously better to have updated technology.
I've picked the Volusion features that are most important and listed them below. If you want a full list, go here, but to be honest they don't do a great job of listing all of their features. Here are the highlights:
- Merchandising:
- Unlimited product options. Some other carts limit you on product options (I'm looking at you, Shopify.)
- Integrated one-page checkout
- SmartMatch technology. Another great feature which detects which product option combinations are currently in stock and only displays those combinations on the front end
- Marketing & SEO:
- Daily deals feature
- eBay integration
- Ability to create coupons and discounts
- Gift cards support
- Built-in customer reviews and feedback functionality
- Wish lists support
- Abandoned/live cart feature. See which one of your customers abandoned their cart, or which customer currently has a cart that is live (with products in it)
- Built-in affiliate management system. Gives you the ability to bring on affiliate marketers who can resell your products for a percentage
- Built-in SEO features. Customize all meta data, create search engine friendly URL's, auto-generated 301 redirects, canonical links, edit robots.txt, create manual 301 redirects and generate an XML sitemap within the admin section, customizable 404 error page
- Built-in "MyRewards" loyalty rewards program. Give points to loyal customers that they can then use for discounts on future purchases or cold hard cash
- Reporting:
- Web analytics
- Order reports, RMA reports, product view reports, category view reports, CRM ticket reports
- Social & Mobile:
- iOS support for iPhones and iPod Touch
- Android Wear support
- Amazon integration makes it possible to sell products on the ubiquitous amazon.com
- Sell your products on social media
- Direct integration with Facebook and Twitter. Allows you to share announcements, daily deals and promotions without leaving your admin area
- Social sharing app built-in. Adds social sharing buttons (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest , etc…) to your product pages
- Mobile version of your eCommerce store
- Improved Mobile Checkout experience
- Management:
- Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. Like most other shopping carts, this area lets you communicate with your customers, manage their support tickets, see their order history, and schedule follow-ups
- Manage inventory
- Manually create orders with built-in POS. A lot of business owners want this feature. Sometimes they want to use their shopping cart as a phone order platform, and that's where manual ordering comes in handy
- Built-in recurring billing. Volusion is one of the only carts to offer a recurring billing feature. For those of you that offer membership/subscription type services, you'll love this. Just keep in mind that some payment providers like Paypal, Google Checkout and the Realex Gateway will not be compatible with this feature
Web Design:
Volusion offers nearly 120 free templates to choose from, but only 23 of them are "device responsive," meaning that they automatically detect the screen size you're using (between phone, tablet, and desktop) and display accordingly. They aren't the most beautiful designs in the world, but many of them are commensurately free of charge. If you don't want to go with a free template, you can always purchase a premium one. Prices range from $50 to $900. Yowza. I could find a Graphic Design student and toss them some beer money, and I'd probably be just as happy with the result.
You can browse all the templates by thumbnail, or you can narrow your search with the Filter sidebar: search by predominant color, price, keyword, industry, and a few more criteria.
As far as editing is concerned, there's a built-in template editor that lets you change your raw code within the admin interface (no need for FTP access). There you'll be able to edit the HTML and CSS of some of your template files. Alternately, there is a WYSIWYG layout manager for easy customization.
Integrations and Add-Ons:
The Volusion app-store is still in beta, and has been there for years. It's still growing, but is missing a number of crucial integrations. This is an important point to consider, especially if you need to integrate your shopping cart with a POS system like Shopkeep or Vend.
Integrations and add-ons is an area where Volusion is definitely behind the competition, but I was happy to see these familiar names listed as supported:
Payment Processing:
Volusion offers an "in-house" credit card processing service called Volusion Merchant Services. The cost is 2.15% per transaction, plus $3.41/month PCI compliance fee. There was once a monthly minimum to meet, but that criteria has been removed.
If you don't want to go with the Volusion/First Data combo, then you can always go with one of our high-rated processors. Volusion is compatible with a large number of payment gateways, so chances are, one of our high-rated providers will be able to integrate with them as well.
To dig in a bit more to Volusion's capatibility, check out their list of supported payment providers. You can also visit this section in their Knowledge Base for answers to specific questions.
In order to be PCI compliant, you'll need to purchase a SSL certificate for your web store. Volusion offers the most affordable one- a 1 year SSL for $89.
Customer Service and Technical Support:
Volusion offers 24/7 live human support via phone, chat, or email, to all tiers above Mini (which provides online support only). Pro and Premium tiers get priority support, which means shorter wait times. Here are the main support lines:
- Phone – 1-800-646-3517
- Sales Email
- Live Chat (Link provided at the footer of most volusion.com pages)
In addition to 24/7 support, Volusion has the following resources to help you:
- Knowledge Base – Filled with dozens of videos and articles, this is one of the most extensive knowledge base's that I've seen. Good job Volusion!
- Webinars and Video Tutorials– Volusion hosts regular webinars that cover eCommerce, marketing, and how to setup and run your store. There is also an extensive collection of videos that can help you with the setup and marketing of your store.
- Social Media Profiles – You can find Volusion on both Facebook and Twitter.
- Dev Wiki – For all you developers, there's a Dev Wiki where you can find code samples, and other documentation relating to the Volusion platform.
Moments after I started my free trial, I probed their customer support. I had a slew of questions to throw at the agent, and I wanted to do so at a peak time (end of business day.) I opted for the Live Chat method, and an actual person (with excellent command of the English language) was ready to help me in four minutes flat. This agent was able to quickly answer everything I threw at them. All in all, I'm satisfied. Which is not easy for most Customer Service departments to do. Rated by itself, Volusion's Customer Support gets 5/5 stars from me.
Negative Reviews and Complaints:
No company can earn a 100% satisfaction rate. As you'd expect from an industry leader, there was a wide spectrum of user feedback. I've gathered the common problems customers have had with Volusion, and trimmed it down to the most recent (read as: relevant) user complaints:
- Bandwidth Overage Charges – There were quite a few people that complained about being charged a bandwidth overage fee. That fee has been reported at $7 for every GB you go over your limit.
- Poor Customer Service/Support – Definitely some mixed reviews on this one. The most recent reviews and my own experience lead me to believe that this issue is in the past. I only mention it here because you'll see these reports arise if you do any digging on your own. Just take note of the date those reports were made, and judge their relevance for yourself.
- Free Templates are Bland – I tend to agree with most people that the free Volusion templates are a bit bland, but then again, you get what you pay for. These are a great place to get started, but I recommend hiring an experienced web designer just as soon as your budget allows.
- Poor Startup Tutorial: I definitely agree with this one. Volusion should revisit their "Get Started" tutorial.
Positive Reviews and Testimonials:
There are a number of success stories and testimonials on the Volusion website. I also took some time to research other reviews, comments, and experiences in other parts of the web. These are the areas most frequently praised by Volusion customers:
- No Transactions Fees — Everybody is happy about the fact that Volusion doesn't charge any transaction fees on top of those imposed by their in-house payment gateway.
- Good Customer Service/Support — For every person that complained about Volusion's support, there was at least one that praised it. Between their self-help resources and their uncommonly astute Customer Support team, I am personally on Volusion's side here.
- Easy to Use — Many customers praise Volusion's easy interface. I tend to agree.
Here are some less frequent positives that I read about Volusion:
- Built-In Daily Deals Module.
- Built-In Abandonment Shopping Cart management.
- Built-In POS and Phone Order Features.
- Built-In Customer Relationship Management Feature (CRM).
- Automated Back-Ups.
- Mobile Friendly.
- Ability to Sell Digital Downloadable Goods.
- Compatible with Many Payment Gateways.
- Unlimited Product Variations.
- PCI Level 1 certified.
- Volusion Content Delivery Network (CDN). Learn more about it here.
- Manage account permissions for different users.
- 100% redundancy of all network hardware, systems, and data.
- Automatic daily back-ups.
- Continuous hourly data backups.
Final Verdict on Volusion:
All of my interactions with the Volusion team and with the software have been surprisingly positive. I tried to break their customer service, but found it to be quite solid. I did some behind-the-scenes investigating, and was quickly routed to a very helpful Senior Brand Manager. I am pleased to report that there are actual human beings working at Volusion, and not mere disaffected office monkeys.
That alone wins a lot of favor with me. If I know that I'll be interacting with friendly, helpful, reliable people, I have a lot more forgiveness if the product is mediocre. But thankfully, I don't have to worry about this kind of trade-off with Volusion. You get the people AND the product with this business deal.
Volusion can, and does, serve a wide variety of retail businesses. Some specialized businesses might be better served by products geared specifically towards them, but the vast majority of users will be quite pleased with Volusion. I have few complaints, and I confidently expect that my few grumbles would be heard and responded to.

Comments about Earth Mama Angel Baby Earth Mama Body Butter, 8 fl oz:
Bought this as my moisturizer during pregnancy. Love that it is safe for pregnancy, it moisturizes my dry skin well, lasts long, and helps relieve itchiness. Not sure if it prevents stretch marks, but I don't have any yet so I am happy with that. Smell is pleasant. A bit strong at first, but subsides after a few minutes. It's a bit pricey, but overall worth it.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - An Oklahoma City man is critically injured after a natural gas explosion at his home on the city's northeast side.
Oklahoma City Fire Department Battalion Chief Bobby Lax says the
explosion happened shortly after 2 p.m. Monday, causing a large fire that destroyed the home.
A man in his mid 60s was inside the home at the time of the explosion and taken to Integris Baptist Medical Center in serious to critical condition.
Lax says the man had exited the home by the time firefighters arrived.
He says the man suffered second- and third-degree burns on his face, head and both hands.
Fire investigators determined there was a gas leak near a kitchen stove where the explosion was centered.

Gary Chaison, professor of industrial relations at Clark University, said the union seems to have used the South Carolina dispute as leverage to guarantee other unionized jobs in the Seattle area, but on a different plane.
"I think the NLRB will be very happy to get this case off the table," Chaison said. "This was probably the most controversial thing the NLRB has done in two or three decades."
The labor board brought its lawsuit at the request of the union, so if the union no longer has a dispute, the board likely would stop pursuing the case.
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and the state's congressional delegation had expressed outrage at the NLRB lawsuit, saying it threatened thousands of jobs and millions of dollars invested in the new Boeing facility in Charleston.
Haley said called the tentative deal a win for Boeing.
"Finally, today's actions confirm two things we've said all along: the NLRB is nothing more than a rogue agency run by the president's union backers; and that when the feds attack a company in South Carolina they can expect us to fight back, and expect us to win," Haley said in a prepared statement.
Wroblewski was flanked by about two dozen union leaders at the Machinists hall in Seattle as he announced the deal. He said it came after six weeks of secret talks that began with an overture from Boeing management, and he called the job security offered by the deal unprecedented.
Union members in Washington, Oregon and Kansas are scheduled to vote Dec. 7 on the tentative agreement. It calls for annual wage increases of 2 percent, cost-of-living adjustments, an incentive program intended to pay bonuses between 2 percent and 4 percent, a ratification bonus of $5,000 for each member, and improvements in the pension program. But it also would raise workers' share of health costs.
Boeing is building its new 787 in Washington state, but opened a second — non-union — assembly line in Charleston. The NLRB complaint arose because it said Boeing opened the second plant to avoid legal union strikes in Washington.
Boeing appeared to be considering a similar move for an updated 737 it plans to build, called the 737 Max. The 737 is built in Renton, Wash., now, but Boeing said in July it was studying other locations.
Haley had insisted that GOP presidential candidates talk about the issue as they courted voters in South Carolina, the first-in-the-South primary state. Candidates slugged away at it early and often. Mitt Romney took an early swing in May as made his first pre-campaign stop and laid the blame Obama's feet.
"How in the world can the president justify the federal government taking power from South Carolina and not allowing South Carolina to compete on a fair and level playing field," Romney said. "It's simply inexcusable."
South Carolina's unemployment rate — 10.5 percent in October — has been among the highest in the nation. The Boeing issue gave presidential hopefuls room to talk about something other than that in a state the GOP has firmly controlled since 2002.

I had previous adapted this beautiful and well-executed Pixel WP theme with proprietary branding artwork and coordinating colors for my website as my own theme "Pixel Pragmatica." Now that I'm building a wiki, I was absolutely delighted to find Dan & Rebecca's excellent Pixeled wiki skin adaptation, which I've also adapted as my own wiki skin "Pixel Pragmated."
I get many compliments on my website, which can be viewed at http://globalpragmatica.com (and http://globalpragmatica.com/wiki).

My IF Experiment
View Single Post
Daniel Olmstead
Join Date: Jun 2008
Posts: 67
Week 2 sees far less dramatic effects than week 1 (to be expected), but still good news:
What went in (avg. daily):
Calories: 2,289
Fat: 127g (49%)
Carbs: 89g + 21g fiber (18%)
Protein: 167g (30%)
Weight: 181 (-2 lbs, 7lbs total)
Waist: 33 (-0.25", 1" total)
Bodyfat: 13% (-0.5%, 2% total)
Percentage to goal: 50%
Before last week, a quarter-inch off the waist was the most I'd lost in a week, so that was what I projected out. If I can maintain that pace, then I should be at goal in four more weeks.
This week saw more variation than the strict regimen of the first week. My fasts went from 16-20 hours, and I had my first cheat meal (dinner at a fancy restaurant - though I did skip dessert). On average, however, the numbers are very similar to last week.
I continue to feel good on this regimen - even better, in fact. I got a +37 point PR on Fight Gone Bad this weekend while fasted, and in general am feeling lean again (it's amazing how much difference an inch or two on the waist makes). My muscle recovery also feels faster - I generally only feel sore one day after a workout, and didn't feel much soreness at all from FGB.

This review is from:
The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less (Paperback)
Barry Schwartz explores interesting paradox. If we as consumer have a lot of choices, it does not mean that we would be able to make a better decision or be happier. In fact it is often quite opposite. The book is based on strong scientific foundation: psychology of judgment and decision-making behavioral economics. He includes references to Nobel award winning work by Kahneman and Tversky, as well as few other researchers. At the same time The Paradox or Choice is not a dry academic-like book: is it full of amusing real-life examples. What influence our choice? What factors would lead us to make irrational choice? How to measure happiness and satisfaction? How to make trade-off? You will find answers on these and other questions.
Essentially Barry Schwartz uncovers from different points view what we already intuitively know: in order to be happy we don't need to buy more things or more expensive things. We just need to make choices, which will increase our satisfaction. What I took away after reading this book are a few simple ideas, that I can use in my every day life. For example, I will try to base my choices on detailed research rather than the memory of one vivid event. This is not as easy as it sounds as we do not always follow our own rules of decision-making. Barry Schwartz's book helps us to reinforce our intent to make more rational choices.
I highly recommend this book.
Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions

Excellent book - controversial, but well founded
April 3 2008
This review is from:
Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions (Hardcover)
Predictable Irrational is probably one of the most remarkable books after Freakonomics. This is a book about the paradoxes of human judgment. All people, regardless who they are, country they live in, jobs they have, or language they speak, make standard mistakes because our brains work in certain ways. Predictable Irrational is not the first book about such phenomena. My other favorite books on this subject include The Paradox of Choice by Barry Schwartz and Gut Feelings: The Intelligence of the Unconscious by Gerd Gigerenzer. Similar ideas are discussed in number of industry specific books, such as the project management book Project Decisions: The Art and Science.
What distinguishes Predictable Irrational from the rest is very interesting real life examples and descriptions of some psychological experiments. Dan Ariely does not have complex discussions about psychology, instead he uses amusing examples to clearly illustrate his points. My favorite chapter is related to the effect of relativity and anchoring. Why, for example, have salaries of CEOs increased dramatically after federal security regulators forced companies to disclose them? Or, why are people willing to pay ridiculous prices for luxury items, which does cost so little to produce?
We can train ourselves to be better decision-makes. In fact, decision-making is a key life skill. We may be able to overcome the illusions Dan Ariely talks about, by leaning about them. This is not easy as some illusions are quite hard to recognize. However, this does not mean that we should not try. It is like leaning to swim: at the beginning, people are afraid to swim. It is known psychological bias, but then people learn to overcome this bias by a series of drills using proven techniques. For example, I'm sure that when you start comparing prices in department stores, you will recall Dan Ariely's book and make better choices.
I highly recommend it.
Understanding and Managing Risk Attitude

Must read in project risk management
Jan. 10 2008
This review is from:
Understanding and Managing Risk Attitude (Paperback)
In recent years bookshelves (and readers) have groaned under the weight of multiple books on project risk management. It is no easy task to write a book, which is both better than its predecessors and genuinely novel. In both tasks David Hillson and Ruth Murray-Webster has succeeded admirably: this book deserves to become the leader in its field.
I have read many books on psychology and project management. In most cases, they are hard to read: it is difficult to grasp essentials where you overwhelmed with new terminology and research methods. David Hillson and Ruth Murray-Webster have a clear understanding of their principal audience - practicing project managers and write accordingly. Their book avoids overly complex theoretical discussions: the author always has an eye on what a project manager really needs to know.
The authors initially discuss risks and risk attitudes. Essentially risk attitude is a psychological phenomenon. Then the author focuses on two main aspects related to risk attitude. First, how people use psychological heuristics or mental shortcuts when they make choices or assess risks, then the authors discuss the emotional aspects of risk attitude. Understanding and Managing Risk Attitudes is the first book that I have encountered that has detailed discussion on emotional literacy for individuals and groups. The discussion about group risk attitudes, particularly groupthink, is especially valuable: we often do not realize that group risk attitudes can be quite different from that of individuals.
Those with project risk management experience are likely to find a good deal of new and worthwhile information in this book. If you are new to project risk management or just looking to refresh your knowledge of the latest thinking in this field, you should definitely read this book.
The Business Savvy Project Manager: Indispensable Knowledge and Skills for Success

5.0 out of 5 stars
Best practical guide in project management and business analysis
Dec 7 2007
This review is from:
The Business Savvy Project Manager: Indispensable Knowledge and Skills for Success (Hardcover)
I'm a project management 'bookaholic' as I buy a few dozen project management books every year. However, I just briefly skim most of them or read a fw chapters and they soon end up in the storage room. Only few books remain on my desk for any long period. 'The Business Savvy Project Manager' is the one of them. And there is a reason for this. This
is not an ordinary project management book, which in most cases are very similar to each other. 'The Business Savvy Project Manager' is probably the best practical guide I have read for managing organizational business on all levels: starting at projects and reaching the enterprise level.
What I especially like about 'The Business Savvy Project Manager' is the strong focus on portfolio management and project economics. While, the book on only describes the basics of discounted cash flow methodology, it provides practical guidelines for modeling project cash flows. Economic analysis and financial metrics are the foundations of successful project management and the book explains how to enable these approaches for
your project.
Another important area of project management, which is very close to my heart, is project decision analysis and risk management. The author explains sensitivity analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, decision tree analysis, and other risk and decision analysis methods that enable project managers to make better choices. How many times do senior managers ask us to write a business case and how many times so we wondering if we are doing it right? The Savvy Project Manager includes clear guidelines for preparing a project business case.
Finally, I'm a strong believer that project management is not only about soft skills, although it is very important. Project management implies strong understanding of economics, decision and risk analysis, metrics and quantitative analysis, and portfolio management. 'The Business Savvy Project Manager' will teach you how to apply these in an easy to grasp format.

I think all she cares about is her Jagiya, A and G wont matter much to her. Her actions are very suspicious, she will change sides in no time. But I think the CV's are going in the direction of breaking Ja-Ga marriage (I think) but again who knows or cares which way it goes. All I care about is that the cheater Jagat ends up alone and struggle in misery, whichever way we get him to his miserable lonely life I am fine.

Great for the wine travelerby Fcbclt
When I travel to wine country, it is great to be able to bring back wine from my trip. Checking this bag is far less expensive than the shipping charged by wineries. The bag pays for itself after 2 uses! I rate this four stars for now and after a few years when I can truly rate the durability, I might change it to five stars

text: Silicon Graphics Another under-$10 stock that looks ready to trigger a sharp move higher is Silicon Graphics ( SGI), a technical computing company that develops, markets and sells a range of computing servers and data storage, as well as differentiating software. This stock has been trending lower so far in 2012 with shares off by around 48%. If you take a look at the chart for Silicon Graphics, you'll notice that this stock has been destroyed by the sellers with shares dropping from its February high of $14.93 to a recent low of $5.02 a share. That big move lower has now created an extremely oversold condition since shares of Silicon Graphics have been showing a relative strength index reading of below 30 for the past couple of weeks. Since this stock flashed some high-volume strength on Wednesday, shares of Silicon Graphics could be preparing to rebound sharply higher. >>5 Stocks to Profit From a Snabpack Rally On Wednesday, volume registered 1.38 million shares, which are well above its three-month average action of 805,462 shares, as the stock closed up 12% to $5.90 a share. That move is coming off a recent area of support at around $5.02 a share. I am calling this support because for the past few weeks SGI has held above that level as buyers stepped in to defend the stock. Market players should now look for long-biased trades in SGI if it can manage to trigger a break out above some near-term overhead resistance at $6.33 a share with high-volume. That $6.33 area is the high on this stock for the day following a recent high-volume gap down from over $9 to under $6 a share. Look for volume off a sustained move or close above $6.33 that registers near or well above its three-month average action of 805,462 shares. If we get that high-volume move above $6.33 a share, then SGI could easily spike big back towards its 50-day moving average of $8.49 a share, or possibly much higher into the $9 to $10 area. If you buy this stock off of weakness and anticipate the breakout, then I would use a stop just below $5.02 a share. If you buy off strength on a high-volume move over $6.33, then I would use my stop just below Wednesday's high of $6.07 a share. Prev 4 of 6 Next

Serial bank robber going up on billboards
Published: Monday, August 24, 2009 at 5:50 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 24, 2009 at 5:50 p.m.
The FBI says a serial robber believed to have struck 10 banks across the South, including one in Hendersonville and one in Fletcher, is being featured on electronic billboards.
Among the robberies are two in Jefferson City, Tenn., and Morristown, Tenn., last week. The same robber is also believed to have held up banks in Edenton and Fayetteville, N.C., Forest Acres, Myrtle Beach and Mount Pleasant, S.C.; and Louisville, Ky.

Ruble Strengthens Against Dollar on Rising Oil, Tax Payments
The ruble advanced as oil, Russia's main export earner, gained and companies started buying the domestic currency ahead of tax payments due next week.
The ruble gained 0.2 percent against the dollar to 31.0990 at 7 p.m. in Moscow, erasing losses of as much as 0.2 percent earlier in the day. The Russian currency rose 0.1 percent versus the euro to 40.1275 and was 0.2 percent up against the central bank's euro-dollar target basket.
Oil gained 1.3 percent to $93.54 per barrel in New York after earlier declines on concern that escalating tension in the Middle East will disrupt supplies in a region responsible for more than a third of global output. Oil and gas account for about 50 percent of Russia's government revenue.
"The main reason is oil," Igor Akinshin, a currency trader at Moscow-based Alfa Bank said by phone. "Also the tax period is ahead. We have seen some purchase of the ruble."
Russian exporters began selling dollars to pay government taxes next week, giving support to the ruble, Dmitry Polevoy, a Moscow-based economist at ING Groep NV, said an e-mailed note today. Companies are due to pay about 900 billion rubles ($29 billion) including in corporate profit tax and mineral extraction tax over the next two weeks, he said.
Non-deliverable forwards showed the ruble at 31.5578 per dollar in three months compared with 31.6405 yesterday.
The extra yield investors demand to own Russia's dollar bonds over U.S. Treasuries fell five basis points to 185, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s EMBI Global Index.
