Series 7 Transferable across States?
3 RepliesJump to last post
Mar 20, 2009 2:46 pm
Hi,I'm just wondering if I get sponsored for my Series 7 by a firm in TX, and then takes it within the state of TX, and would it transfer over if I go to work at another state ? or do I need to take it again with a new firm at a different state. I always assumed it did tranfer over. But, I was informed otherwise at a interview. Which it is still very hard to believe since the exam will be the same etc etc. Also, is there a time requirement involved in being employed by a firm before you transfer to a new state, new firm for the 7 to transfer over. Thanks for any help.
The 7 is issued by federal regulatory agencies, not state. It shouldn't matter.
Yeah, but your registration with FINRA is not transferable. You must withdraw and re-apply with the new firm.

Holidays In CLE: Indie Style
From Indie Rock to Local Artists: #ThisIsCleveland Holidays
So, holiday light displays and Santa suits aren't your thing.
Ba-humbug, right? WRONG.
Cleveland is a hotbed for indie artists, local music with national cred and a craft beer scene that has hipster mustaches quivering for more.
So, when it comes to celebrating that holly jolly time of year, Cleveland knows a thing or two about how to do the holidays in an uncommercialized, locally sourced, under-the-radar, handcrafted way.
Cleveland Flea: Holiday Maker Mart
So, here you've got an organization that brings hundreds of local artists, crafters and other vendors together to sell their handcrafted goods, vintage finds and homemade goodies.
Beyond that, the Cleveland Flea holds its shows inside vacant and underutilized spaces, which then brings newcomers to undiscovered portions of Cleveland's neighborhoods.
So, when you shop their free Holiday Kickoff Market in Midtown on Nov. 22 -
23 or the Holiday Maker Mart in Slavic Village on Dec. 13 - 14, your dollars are going back into the local economy, while also activating a neighborhood. Cool, huh?
With its cool antiques stores, independently owned restaurants, art galleries and niche boutiques, the neighborhood of Larchmere showcases its ever present indie funkiness during the Larchmere Holiday Stroll Nov. 28 - 29. Walk Larchmere Boulevard, peruse small businesses, listen to live music and purchase all sorts of locally-made art.
DJ Kishka: How the Kishka Saved Christmas
There are DJs who spin EDM. And, there are DJs who spin Top 40. And, then...well...then there's DJ Kishka. What does he spin? Polka. Yes, folks, you heard that right. Hold your eye roll for a sec and listen.
This guy puts on massively popular Polka Happy Hours, which beyond anything else, are absolutely hysterical.
On Dec. 12 at the Happy Dog, he hosts "How the Kishka Saved Christmas" where fans and newbs will enjoy the whole Kishka experience - complete with fake beard and fedora.
Besides running across the stage wielding huge sausage links, the DJ encourages show attendees to help him decorate the Kishka Tree with real sauerkraut. [Click to see video; we couldn't make this stuff up if we tried.]
If you're looking for tissue box covers, cheesy knickknacks and other grandma-inspired craft projects, we'd like to suggest not checking out this event.
The Cleveland Bazaar, Northeast Ohio's longest running indie craft show, is chocked full of cool handmade wares, locally-made gifts and other unique hand-crafted items that you'll (thankfully) never find at a big box retailer.
Its signature holiday event happens at the 78th Street Studios on Dec. 13 - 14.
What are the holidays without a few cold ones and some good old-fashioned brewhaha? We don't know - nor do we care to find out. All we know is that Tremont puts on one heck of a party Dec. 12 - 14.
This artful neighborhood gets its glitz on starting Friday, Dec. 12 with a special version of the Tremont ArtWalk where the local stores, boutiques, art galleries and restaurants offer later hours and all sorts of holiday specials including live bands, a pop-up shop, free trolley transportation around the neighborhood and a beer hop to several restaurants and bars.
The fun continues on Saturday, Dec. 13 with the Santa Shuffle, a run through the neighborhood where everyone's decked out in his or her Santa gear. And, of course, there's a bunch of beer specials throughout the neighborhood, too.
On Sunday, Dec. 14, the event concludes with a holiday concert by the Cleveland Philharmonic Orchestra at the historic Zion United Church of Christ.
The Last Minute Market & Screw Factory Artists Open Studio
Referred to locally as the "Screw Factory," the Lake Erie Building in Lakewood was a former factory built in the 1900s. Today, the unique industrial space serves a number of different purposes, but is most known for housing dozens of artists' studios.
The facility opens its doors to the Last Minute Market and an open studio shopping experience featuring more than 100 artists and craftspeople on Dec. 20.
This is what happens when a dozen buddies (who also happen to be in several successful local bands) get together at a holiday party, down a couple glasses of eggnog and get to thinking. The Ohio City Singers are an indie rock tradition here in Cleveland.
But, they're not crooning classics. This local band - which only performs around the holidays - sings their own original holiday sets while simultaneously hosting a series of rather epic holiday parties throughout December.
Shows happen all month and offer reason #2,333,249 to enjoy a couple of Christmas ales (responsibly, of course).

Hello everyone,
Sorry for this delayed post. As you know, I am on twitter more often now (Chetan_bhagat). However, sometimes 140 characters are not enough to talk about all I want to say. It is November, and 3 weeks since 2 States came out. I thought I'll share a couple of things that are occupying my mind these days.
1. 2 States response – I am overwhelmed by the response to 2 States. The quantity and quality of responses is at a higher level than any of the previous books. We've started displaying some of the fanmails on the homepage of this site (unless the reader chooses the privacy option). And you can see the feedback coming in. The book has touched a chord and connected across the country. To deliver to the expectations after three already successful books is, for me, the biggest achievement. This time the story was simple, in fact the title gives it away. It all came down to execution, and I'm fortunate God was on my side this time. It is still early days, but I can tell this story will travel far and wide and give me a whole new set of readers. The little red book is literally, everywhere.
2. 3 Idiots – I am sure you are as excited as me upon seeing the 3 Idiots promo (see post below). With a stunning star cast and an excellent director, we have all been waiting for it a long time. Just to be clear, 3 Idiots is based on Five Point Someone (and that is the official credit) but the plot is different. There are commonalities, some of which are seen in the promo – the engineering college, the three boys, the triple riding, the Prof on a bicycle and his beautiful daughter (!). The core conflict and the underlying messages about the education system are also similar. However, the film's plot is quite different and does not follow the novel. That is a decision the filmmakers independently took well after taking the rights of the book. I personally felt the underlying message needs to reach people more than the exact rendition of the book, and hence I was fine with it. The book has been widely read in any case, the original source is there for all to see. I, from my side, am happy that my first story and its big idea inspired the biggest filmmakers in the country. However, it is their film and all accolades should go to them. I hope my explanation sets the expectations right among viewers so they can enjoy the film better.
3. What's next and the big escape – This is the big question that I am seeking answers to right now. Will it be another book, another screenplay, a new column, more talks around the country, nothing at all? – I have no idea. I do know however, that I need a calm mind to decide all this. Hence, I decided to escape the limelight for a while. Fame and success, while sought after, have the power to disorient you and cloud your judgment. I left India and have come to Hong Kong, a place I am familiar with having spent 11 years here, but also anonymous. I will be here for a while, focusing on looking inside and trying to find out what I really want. A few answers are emerging. Once I have a bit more clarity, I will surely share them with you. I miss India, my family and readers terribly, but this detachment process is important for me.
4. Launches in other cities – because of the need to get away, I postponed the launches in various cities. However, I know I can't be away from my readers too long, so will be organizing them in the next couple of weeks. The next few ones will be in the South – most likely Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore. These will be followed by other cities, details of which I shall post when available.
5. A parting word – I want to end bysharing a small incident. The night before the release of 2 States, I was super tense. I went to the ISKCON temple in Chowpatty and met His Holiness Radhanath Swami, an American gentleman who moved to India several decades ago and devoted his life to serve God. I told him I couldn't sleep because of the anxiety over the fact that there will be a million judgments on my work, both positive and negative, in the coming days. He told me this:
"Imagine there is a puddle. When it rains, the puddle is filled with water. When it doesn't, the puddle dries up. Now compare that to the ocean. The ocean is so deep, it doesn't matter if it rains above or it is dry weather. Your inner depth should be as much as the ocean, so you are not fazed by the external praise or criticism. For that, you must truly do work that is meaningful to you, have love in your heart for others and help people. And when you achieve inner depth, the external world's rewards won't matter to you as much."
I don't think I am as deep as the ocean yet. But I am trying. Meanwhile, I just felt I will share this with you, so you may apply it in some aspects of your life. Whatever happens outside, it doesn't matter as much if there is a calm stillness in you.
लोकः समासतः सुखिनो भवन्तु
(may all beings in this world be happy)
Love and Blessings,

Also, this update has not hit the other two bureaus yet nor have I received an alert from scorewatch to let me know of any score changes which I believe should occur due to now four cards I have paid down from max should be showing . I'm almost inclined to think that maybe eq batches the changes for x number of days and makes a score determination for the month. Whereas the other two adjust your scores as soon as a change occurs. Making EQ the hardest for me to get a huge point boost like the other bureaus. Just some more thoughts.Usually HSBC and Orchard s/p will report end of month regardless of the statement date. Check in to when the date is report 'as of' and that will give you a good idea of when to make sure your balances are lowest. As the PP said, it is almost impossible to goodwill ANYTHING out of these two cards so remain perfect.

A computer-assisted coding project underway in a Maine health system is showing early returns, including reduced expenses and improved cash flow. Mandy Reid, coding manager at Eastern Maine Medical Center, discussed the technology at the HIMSS 2010 Conference & Exhibition, noting that the 7-hospital rural delivery system had reduced FTEs and improved accounts receivable during the project's first phase.
Serving as a pilot site for coding software vendor 3M Health System, Eastern Maine began the project on the inpatient side, where it logs some 21,000 annual patient visits. After implementing the software, Eastern Maine reduced the number of coders it needed from eight to seven FTEs and saw A/R drop from $2.7 million to $1.5 million. The automated coding project was part of a larger document management campaign that looked to boost coder productivity and accuracy, while also lifting staff morale.
On the productivity front, Eastern Maine's group of inpatient coders went from completing 1.19 charts per hour to 1.71, a nearly 30% productivity gain. Charts are also being completed and sent into the payment pipeline earlier. Reid stressed that the automated coding software does not replace coders--who must still make any final coding decisions, at least on the inpatient side. As the system moves into computer-assisted coding on the outpatient side, the software may select a final code. The 3M software works in conjunction with an enterprise electronic health record and billing system.

text: Okay about some months ago I couldn't wait to play Castlevania POR. This wasn't possible because of the San Disk micro SD card I have. Well a huge bummer in my opinion, but I got over it hehe. Previous week Worms 2 was released and I was so happy that I finally could play that game.......NOT, because of this memory issue. Ok so I went to my Media shop to buy a faster card. My eyes fell down at the San Disk Ultra II Micro SD card, also known as the SanDisk Mobile Premier? Okay, paid 18 euros for it and thought I could play Worms with it. A 'fast' card with 10 mb/s read speed and 9 mb/s write speed. Worms is still unplayable and freezes at the loading screen and I paid 19 euros for nothing. Which memory card should I use to play games like Castlevania POR and Worms 2? Thanks in advance, Sodeju

Safe Harbor Residents
Safe Harbor Program Description
In order for the Safe Harbor staff to assist clients in need of services, it is expected that all individuals receiving Safe Harbor services will work, to the best of their abilities, to better their situation and seek more permanent housing as quickly as possible. In working with case managers, residents address the root cause of their homelessness and work toward overcoming the underlying barrier.
Examples of services offered are: assistance in obtaining Bloomington Township General Assistance, Supplemental Security Income, veteran's benefits, providing or referring clients to programs which provide training for job counseling, life skills, parent training, budget counseling, AA/NA meetings, housing assistance, spiritual guidance, drug / alcohol treatment and mental health referrals.
Length of Stay
The length of stay for an individual will be 8 weeks beginning on the day one arrives. The 8 week time frame continues even if the resident is not here. This policy is in place so that we may continue to work with a resident to overcome homelessness. If one is not here, we cannot help. It is encouraged that residents stay as long as possible to develop the tools necessary to sustain independence. Staying beyond 8 weeks may be approved through a case manager. If an extension is not approved, you will not be eligible to return for a period of 3 months. Exceptions are made on a case by case basis, if an individual is requesting to return.
Basic program requirements for all individuals who stay at Safe Harbor include: saving 75% of any income received or earned and applying for 10 jobs per week if one is not working or underemployed.

"Concord" is a weekly study of the Lutheran Confessions, where we will take up a topic from the Book of Concord and reflect on what we believe, teach, and confess in the Lutheran Church. The purpose of this series is to deepen readers' knowledge and appreciation for the confessions of the Lutheran Church, and to unite them "with one heart" to confess the teachings of Holy Scripture.
Original sin has replaced our original righteousness. That is to say, in the beginning God created man and woman in a right relationship with Him and all of creation, properly oriented toward God in knowledge and worship, and toward creation in vocation. But sin disordered that relationship. We became disoriented, crooked, skewed. Now our orientation is every which way but toward God.
Justification is getting lined back up again, like this paragraph is "left justified" because the words are lined up straight on the left side. Justification is how we get pointed back toward God; it's how we get restored to that right relationship with Him that we lost. And being right with God, we also become right with the world.
No strength, merit, or work of our own can do this. It might get you close—really close, in fact. But if it's not right in line, even minor imperfections will be amplified when it comes to reaching God. Like traveling to the moon—if you're off even by fractions of a percent, you'll sail right past into the outer darkness.
So how do we get right? Lutheran churches teach that people "cannot be justified before God by their own strength, merits, or works, but are freely justified for Christ's sake, through faith, when they believe that they are received into favor, and that their sins are forgiven for Christ's sake, who, by His death, has made satisfaction for our sins. This faith God imputes for righteousness in His sight. Rom. 3 and 4" (Augsburg Confession, article IV). Faith. Faith is what justifies.
But it's not just any old faith. It's faith that we are justified for Christ's sake. He's the One who does the work with His sacrificial death and victorious resurrection. We don't justify ourselves by approaching God; God justifies us by receiving us into favor. And He does so by forgiving our sins.
This faith He imputes for righteousness. That means that He counts it for righteousness. It's like you log into your bank account to find that someone has deposited more money than you could ever hope to spend. Through faith, God gives us credit for Jesus' work. And we are justified.

Windows 10 PC and USB CDC ACM Device PC Side Driver Timeout Issue
Using USBView on a windows 10 PC that exhibits the CDC ACM timeout issue, USBView reports an error with the device descriptors as seen below.
The descriptors show as a problem on all PC's, with the latest version of USBView. However, this doesn't cause an issue on windows 7 machines, and not all Windows 10 machines. When the problem occurs, the COM port appears to have been created, but the terminal program cannot open the port,and then eventually in device manager, the USB COM port shows an error.
The file to edit/replace is src/sf_el_comms_port.h in a project that uses the UX comms framework.
After modifying the device descriptors to fix these problems reported by USBView the CDC ACM worked correctly on the PC that exhibited the timeout issue, using the default windows 10 in box driver.

March 25, 2009 --Chicago's Olympic hopes now include a plan to promote sports in the Chicagoland area and across the world. The developmental plan, which would be launched should Chicago be named host city for the 2016 Games, has five rings:
"Our plan for 2016 is based on strengthening sport and promoting its values in our city and across the country in the years leading up to 2016 and beyond," said Patrick G. Ryan, chairman and CEO of Chicago 2016.
The plan includes a seven-year partnership with the International Federations.
"With International Federation guidance, the Five Rings of Sport will help ensure that our plan works from the grassroots to the global level," said Ryan.

500. What we have protected ourselves from in
this country is the distortion of the political process by the
horrendous cost of advertising on television that I believe has
corrupted the American process and, therefore, when you suggest
we get on this slope, I think it is a very slippery slope indeed.
(Professor Barendt) I do not think it is as slippery
as you imagine. I agree with your fear of the domination of politics
by ultra rich, and maybe ultra right wing, groups but I think
reasonable rules can be formulated to allow some political advertising.
Remember, the price of advertising on radio would not be extortionate.
I think one might distinguish here between radio and television.
Chairman: Lastly, Lord Pilkington?
501. I feel like a student in a seminar at Cambridge
forty years ago in this situation! It is a soft ball to you, Professor.
You have expressed concerns about the Secretary of State having
powers to avoid mentioning a particular matter in broadcasting,
a sort of reserve power. Would you want, which I am sure you would
if the use of any direction like this would stop something being
broadcast, to have some form of Parliamentary scrutiny?
(Professor Barendt) I certainly would. I would have
thought that was the very minimum. I would much prefer that it
was confined to national security or public safety grounds. What
I think the Committee should urge the government to do is to think
again about a power which the last time it was used, as I think
we all know, was the so-called broadcasting ban on the supporters
of terrorist organisations in Northern Ireland. I am afraid that
was regarded as widely wrong and it was withdrawn by the government
two or three years later; it served no apparent purpose and it
was, in my view, a clear infringement of freedom of expression
which should not be countenanced in a liberal society.
502. Could I again say how very grateful I amI
cannot speak for the Committeefor your eloquence and expertise
but could you write some of it down for our feeble legislative
(Professor Barendt) You are far too modest.
Chairman: It is our way of getting very inexpensive
advice! Thank you, Professor.

Watch network engineer Diana Tootle explain how she uses math in her work in this video from KAET. In the accompanying classroom activity, students watch the video and then complete an activity involving an aspect of math that Ms. Tootle discusses: converting numbers between base 2 and base 10. To get the most from the lesson, students should have some experience writing and evaluating numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents, using exponents to denote place values (e.g, 101, 100), and writing numbers using expanded notation._

Lesson Plan
Fly Away! (The Safe Zone)
- Duration:
- 30 - 40 Minutes
- Group Size:
- 8 or fewer
- Setting:
- outdoors
OverviewIn "Fly Away! (The Safe Zone)," students will learn how researchers study migratory patterns.
Our extensive "Fly Away!" curricula unit is broken into twelve lesson plans, each taking 30 - 90 minutes to complete, and targeted at varying grade levels. A class needn't complete every lesson in the unit - each lesson comes with its own set of objectives and resources. This is lesson 11 of the unit.
Guiding Question: What does migration mean for protecting the golden eagles that spend the breeding season in Denali National Park and Preserve?
Critical Content: The difficulties the National Park Service faces in protecting a species when it only spends part of the year in the park.
Student Objectives: Students will ...
- record data on population changes
- simulate natural processes as a class
- graph tabular data
- analyze data (tabular and graphed) and simulated processes to answer questions
Our extensive "Fly Away!" curricula unit is broken into twelve lesson plans, each taking 30 - 90 minutes to complete, and targeted at varying grade levels. A class needn't complete every lesson in the unit, though some lessons do refer to one another and are better done in sequence. However, each lesson comes with its own set of objectives and resources.
The final lesson, "Fly Away! (Being a Biologist)" can be done independently, as a large research project, or as a final assessment after having done some, or all, of the other lessons in the unit.
Check out the other lessons:
Lesson 1: Exploring Migration
Lesson 2: Climate and Seasons
Lesson 3: Climate and Migration Patterns
Lesson 4: Spatial Migration Game
Lesson 5: Migration Cues
Lesson 6: Homing Experiment
Lesson 7: Bird Modeling
Lesson 8: Golden Eagle Life Cycle Diagram
Lesson 9: Which Way Do We Go?
Lesson 10: The Race South
Lesson 11: The Safe Zone
Lesson 12: Being a Biologist
MaterialsFor this game, students will need: paper, pencils, cones or some other way of marking off a safety zone, balls soft enough to throw at students, one copy of the Eagle Population Table for the class, one copy of the Safe Zone Worksheet for each student.
Eagle Population Table
Use this to track how many eagles survive each 'year' in the game. Download
Safe Zone Worksheet
Use this worksheet after playing the population game to draw conclusions between the game and actual difficulties eagles face during migration Download
1. Assign one-half of the class to be golden eagles. The rest of the class is assigned to be some of the dangers that a golden eagle may encounter outside of the park e.g., power lines, poisoned food sources, human encroachment on prey habitat where eagles hunt. If you don't have much room, you may need to start with a higher percentage of eagles than hazards, as the eagles may be "easy targets".
2. Assign one student (or the teacher) to be the researcher and fill out the Eagle Population Table. This data will be used to graph the population changes after the game.
3. The safety zone represents Denali National Park and Preserve. The eagles start in the safety zone.
4. When the teacher yells, "migrate", the eagles need to run to the other side of the room or field, touch something and run back to Denali. Once they are outside of the park the "dangers" may throw balls at them.
5. If an eagle is hit, it dies and needs to wait on the sidelines.
6. Dangers throw balls until they are out, then they must collect their balls and return to their spot.
7. The eagles that make it back to the park the second time and every "year" after may breed and a new eagle is created. To create a new eagle, a "breeding eagle" calls the name of an eagle that has been killed by a danger. The new eagle gets a free walk to the safety zone.
8. Before the teachers yells "migrate" each year, the designated students should keep track of the number of eagles that have died on the worksheet and the number that are born. The dangers must have collected their balls and be ready to throw again.
9. If after 2-4 years the eagle population is dying off or overpopulating (there are not enough eagles on the sidelines to represent new eagles born), readjust the percent of the class that are eagles and hazards and/or use some of the adaptations below. Start again with a new table.
10. Once you have 10-20 "years" of data students should return to the classroom and graph the data and answer the discussion questions. You can make copies for the students of the Eagle Population Table or copy it to the board.
Discussion Questions: see the Safe Zone Worksheet.
1. If the class needed to start again because of overpopulation or a population crash, what does that tell us about eagle populations in nature?
2. What is extinction and what are the possible causes of extinction (discuss both hazards and habitat requirements?
3. How do hazards outside of a national park affect the population of a migratory species that spends part of its time within a national park?
4. How do national parks affect the population of migratory species outside of the parks?
5. What can parks and people do to help protect migratory species when they are not in a park?
1. Eagles have to pair up in order to breed (make new eagles).
2. New eagles cannot breed until they are three years old - they must make it back to the Safe Zone three times before they can breed (Denali golden eagles do not breed until they are four or five years old).
3. In a smaller area, hazards must touch the eagles flying past, rather than using balls, but the hazards can only pivot on one foot, they can't move from their spot.

I REALLY didn't think it was possible for us to win so overwhelmingly against a good Wales team.
I told my players beforehand that they had to be ready to fight.
They listened to me, did what I asked of them, and they deserved this win.
I am happy with every single one of them.
The result has taken us into first place in Group Nine, but I am taking absolutely nothing for granted.
We need to focus upon Wednesday night's match in Serbia-Montenegro as much as we did the game against Wales.
That game will be very difficult and we must make sure we take the three points.
Despite the 4-0 scoreline against Wales, I do feel they gave us some problems.
I was a bit concerned when the score was only 0-0 at half time, and for them Giggs and Hartson could easily have scored in the first 45 minutes.
We had to adjust our tactics a bit in the second half and deal with the threat of Hartson.
But once the first goal went in, I knew we were on our way because our last few matches have been extremely positive.
Certain players are having to perform roles they are not used to at club level, but they are doing it well and without fuss.
Del Piero, for example, played wide on the left against Wales, rather than up front like he does for Juventus.
Inzaghi is the main striker for Milan, but he played off Vieri for us against Wales - yet still managed to score three goals.
We knew the Welsh team spirit was good because of the run they have had in this competition.
But the fact my players performed so well in unfamiliar roles proves our own team spirit is excellent.
I would have to rank this as one of the best wins since I became manager. But if we win in Serbia, it might prove even better still.

ProFunds Advisors has hired Steve Cohen as managing director of its institutional group. Cohen was most recently with FOLIOfn where he served as VP of marketing, a position he left shortly after the Vienna, Va.-based firm hired Jim Vitalie as president of FOLIOfn Institutional.
ProFunds products have typically attracted mutual fund traders that employ strategic asset allocation techniques or active management. Cohen will be responsible for spreading the firm's portfolio of products to insurance companies, banks, and broker/dealers.
"Part of Steve's charge will be to work with large institutions in furthering their awareness of ProFunds and find mutually beneficial ways to apply these institutions' distribution power to ProFunds' innovative and popular product offerings," said CEO Michael Sapir, in a statement.

2009= Year of Expectation
While God is a God of grace, he is also a God of reward. There is no way that the righteous shall be forsaken and I am certainly no exception. In living my life accordingly to his will, I know there will be great reward. Regardless of what the current situations may look like, I know the best is yet to come.
So many people often find themselves in a place where they are tired of doing 'the right thing' and they give up. The moment they give is when their breakthrough is around the corner. Its like running a marathon and stopping just short of the finish line.
In making my theme 'Expectation' I am changing the tides. By declaring victory over every trial in advance, I've already won. No matter what the circumstance, God will make me the victor. We have to know that God has something great in store for us and begin to live in positive expectation.
Whether its finding a parking space, getting a raise, triumphing over sicknesses, a family member being saved or winning a million dollars, I expect breakthrough for 2009 in all that I do. And I am believing the same for you. You need only touch and agree that this is your year and it shall be done. Be blessed and prepare for what God is about to do for you.
~In the flyest expectation

To be loved... To love....
Economize, Don't Compromise!
They're your priority, you're merely their option
In Memory of.....
Well, today is the one year anniversary to the day, December 30th, that my grandmother has passed. I am going to take this day to reflect on her life and also reflect on the life that I am living...

If you love something.....
Often times in our lives, we have people that we deem important and ultimately love to pieces. But then we find ourselves in a place where we may love them more than we should or than they deserve. In that case, we must let them go in order to keep growing.
Never Stop Believing.....
Lovers and Friends?
Double Portion in 09'
Favorite group of all time!
When I listen to this group, I know what love sounds like. It is such a comfort to find 2 people that love each other without any limits. Regardless of what they go through or have been through, they find the comfort in each other's love. That is so powerful. Many people think real love is so hard to find or a ficitional tale, but God can give that to you if you believe. And when you get it, you hold on to it. Just listen to these lyrics, or read them.
~Love & Flyness
Lyrics to "Stars"
So many times you could have walked away
But I didn't have to say a word to convince you to stay
'Cause you know it and I know this thing is real
So we continue to learn and our love grows deeper still
Each day I watch you get better at this
Each moment I'm more and more convinced
We trust in love, we took the risk
We ran our own pace
We won our race
And I could never turn away
We've come so far
Stars look up at you baby
My heart belongs
Right here next to you baby
If I had just one wish
It would be to stay together
Stay together, let's grow together
It's not much to ask of us
I know we can do it
I always knew it
Always look at me the way you do today
Treat me like a friend
Listen to what I say
Cause girl I'm wit'chu, wit'chu
All the way
I would never turn away
We'e come so far
Stars look up at you baby
I'm here baby
For you baby
My heart belongs
Right here next to you baby
Repeat chorus
Always comfort me
The same way you do today
Treat me like a friend
Listen to what I say
I would never turn away
Repeat chorus

Merry Christmas......
Well, Christmas was a complete and total success!!!! Full of laughter, inside jokes, candid photos, and lots of memories. What I love about Christmas with my family is the ability to make a joke out of anything. We forgot to buy propane for the fried turkey, so we just put that sucker in the oven the old fashioned way and broiled it. It turned out to be the best dish on the menu. Kinda like when life gives you lemon, just make a killing on selling lemonade. Well, that's what stood out the most for me this holiday. You may not have everything you want, but God has given you all that you need. More than anything, God has people in your life to help you get through it all. So this holiday season, remember to cherish those you love and always cherish the moments you share with them!

BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
What to get a girl who has everything?
All of this for a few hours.....
Maybe not. When I look back over the years at all of my Christmases, the preparation is where all the learning has taken place. So many life lessons take place in the kitchen. Patience, endurance, adventure, learning the value of paying attention, passing of family traditions, and the list goes on. It seems every time I am in the kitchen, I learn something new. It's one thing to watch the Food Network all day, but to actually be doing it myself, is an entire different story.
As I prepare for yet another holiday gathering, I am eternally grateful for the experience. The family laughter and tears, the suspense of gifts that I didn't expect, the crazy family member that does something random, watching people enjoy my carefully prepared dishes, and most importantly, seeing another Christmas take off with a bang!

To be "thick" or just plain ol' fat....?
To be "thick" or just plain ol' fat....? That is the question.
Ok, so the new year is approaching and of course everyone is going to be on this super workout plan, supposedly. But my question is, how thin is thin and how thick is thick? I ask this because when you look at Janet and Oprah, its obviously a universal struggle.
I was watching this new show hosted by a panel of doctors, and they analyzed 3 types of diets. They did the cayenne pepper diet, the low-carb diet, and the lifestyle diet. 3 women followed a detailed diet plan and their goal was to lose at least 5 pounds. Long story short, the lifestyle diet was the most successful. You have to do what works for you, not following a fad that works for everyone else.
I've chosen to talk about this for a moment because it seems that all of us need to focus on keeping our mind and bodies healthy. Eating the "perfect" food is fine, but if your lifestyle isn't in line with it, then its in vain. We have to make conscious efforts to eat more small meals. So instead of starving ourselves and "saving" it for a good lunch or dinner, we should carry small healthy snacks and eat smaller portions. I've tried it and it really does work.
My goal is not to be some unrealistic size, but healthy. I want to be around to see my children's children. As African American women, we certainly have to focus on keeping our hearts healthy, which comes from proper diet and exercise. With the weight of the world on our shoulders, we have to be prepared for just about anything.
So today, don't set some unrealistic diet goal that doesn't fit your lifestyle or abilities, just take little steps toward a healthier lifestyle. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, get a kids meal instead of a value meal, walk around the neighborhood to visit a friend instead of driving by, walk the entire mall even if you're running into 1 store. Just watch the difference it may make ...

When you gonna let me tap that?
I told myself I was going to write a blog post today. I don't really know what to write about, so I guess this will be a short one.
I got a PM on 2+2 today, by someone who was reading through the "when you gonna let me tap that?†thread. He wanted to know how I translated "when you gonna let me tap that?†to Norwegian, because we don't really have a "tap that†expression. We're more blunt than that, I guess. Anyways, I had totally forgotten about this gem of a thread, and epic game. I recommend the people reading this, especially guys, to check it out and try it. Hilarity ensues.
In other news, I've discovered a pretty awesome band called Asking Alexandria. They're pretty good, and they kind of sound like a mix between Burden of a Day and Attack! Attack!

Open Thread: It Happened to You
This is your place to talk about the funny, sad, outrageous things that are happening in your life -- whenever you're ready.
A year ago today, my boyfriend of two-and-a-half years and I broke up.
I had known for months that things weren't working. But this person had been my best friend, my source of comfort for two-and-a-half years.
When I was diagnosed with a plethora of health problems, he had sat with me entire nights in the emergency room holding my hand while I waited for test results. He had been loving and sweet to me at a time when I truly needed it.
Would anyone else be there for me the way that a boyfriend would?
Still, I saw the break-up coming. He'd blown me off a week before and we hadn't talked since. We didn't even care enough to fight. We both knew it was over.
He called me at around 11 p.m. and I paused my binge-watch of New Girl to answer. We talked for 20 minutes, both expressed how unhappy we'd been and agreed that we'd always known we weren't a forever couple.
We were friendly. I was glad we could end things in a way that respected and honored what we had had together.
I texted a few friends, spoke on the phone to one, then stood in the middle of my kitchen and forced myself to really process the gravity of the situation. I cried, mourning the imminent absence of a person who had been a constant in my life for years, mourning a life that was about to change.
The crying didn't last long, I blew my nose and promptly returned to New Girl.
The next day, and for the next few weeks, I was fine. Better than fine. A huge weight had been lifted off of my shoulders.
I no longer had to worry about anyone but myself. I had the time and impetus to renew friendships I'd let fall to the wayside for various reasons. It was great. I felt free. Until.
Less than a month later, I got a text from a mutual friend asking about this girl who had started showing up in pictures with my ex.
Being a person in her 20s with access to social media, I fell into the trap and Facebook-stalked my ex for the first time since the end.
There they were, multiple pictures dating back to mere days after we had broken up. I clicked on her page and was horrified to learn that they had met WEEKS prior to the break-up.
My ex had been picking up girls before we'd even ended our relationship. He'd cheated on his sickly girlfriend and didn't even have the consideration to hide it from me.
Humiliation is a funny thing, especially with the infiltration of social media into every aspect of our lives. It was humiliating to be forgotten so easily after being with someone for so long and what made it even worse was that it was right out there, presented to all of my friends on a platter: Allie's boyfriend had moved on before they were even broken up.
I was devastated. I didn't want to be, didn't choose to be. I tried to find the sense of freedom and happiness that I'd had before, but I couldn't.
I told myself over and over again that we had been unhappy. That I was better off without him. But the sense of betrayal was almost palpable. He'd shown me such little regard.
When our mutual friend confronted him to let him know how tacky it was for him to be plastering his new relationship all over social media less than a week after our break-up, his response was merely "K."
I had wasted two-and-a-half years of my life with someone who, when it came down to it, was not the person I thought he was.
The signs had always been there. He'd unapologetically arrive two hours late any time I arranged fun plans for us and then when we did go out, he'd complain about the price the entire time. He didn't get me anything for my 26 birthday and seemed surprised when I was hurt. Right before his 31st birthday, I discovered he didn't brush his teeth every day.
"I only brush them when they feel dirty," he told me. Barf. This was not the behavior of a mature man.
I knew I had two options to battle the sinking feeling inside: I could give in, drink, cry, hook up. Or I could fight back. I chose the latter.
I used my poor bruised ego as fuel and began to eat right and work out. I stopped drinking. I started writing more.
The best revenge is living well and I wanted to personify that. But I had no desire whatsoever to date. I wanted to focus on me. I wanted to focus on being a better me, the best me. Cheesy. But effective.
After about four months, I felt great. I had gotten into much better shape (mentally and physically), gotten much closer with my wonderful friends, and felt like maaaaybe I could stomach the idea of starting to casually date again.
I have never been someone to jump from relationship to relationship, preferring to have gaps of at least a year in between. But I figured since you gotta go through about 100 bad dates to have one even semi-decent one, why not start the process now?
I joined all the dating apps that had come about during my hiatus from singledom and weeded through the cavalcade of "Nice tits" messages to find the nice guys. And then the unexpected happened.
Four months after my first big break-up, I found the partner of my dreams. From the moment we met, I felt the thing that had been missing throughout my entire relationship with my ex, from every relationship I had ever had before.
That indescribable feeling of complete compatibility, the comfort of having a perfect connection with your perfect person.
When I was walking to my first date with my now boyfriend, I had a mindset I'd never had before. Sure I was nervous, but nowhere near my usual level of pre-date anxiety.
"Who cares if this guy likes me?" I thought. "I need to figure out if I like him." (Spoiler alert: I do.)
I didn't have to chase him down, we didn't have to play games. When you find the right person, everything is so easy.
I've never loved someone the way I love him: fully, completely, and with my whole heart. When we fight, it's because we care enough to fight. We make each other laugh to the point of tears. We put each other first whenever possible.
He is truly the cherry on top of the sundae of my life. Hell, he's the whipped cream and hot fudge too. But not the nuts, that's gross.
In a funny way, I have my ex to thank for leading me down this road. If I hadn't decided to Facebook stalk him, I don't know if I would have been jolted back to reality.
When I realized how much energy I had put into another person only to receive virtually nothing back, it changed me. I felt like I woke up from a deep sleep.
It drove me to become a better person, a person who likes herself and does things to improve her own life rather than just letting it pass by. A person who could be happy being alone, but who is worthy of a truly great partner.
Today, not only am I truly, madly, deeply in love for the first time, I am falling in love with me. So, the next time you are going through a rough patch and you have two choices — to give in or to fight back — I suggest you fight back.
It was a tough road, but if any step of my journey had been different, I wouldn't have wound up where I am today.

(A) All local public offices shall maintain an accounting system and accounting records sufficient to enable the public office to identify, assemble, analyze, classify, record and report its transactions, maintain accountability for the related assets (and liabilities, if generally accepted accounting principles apply), document compliance with finance-related legal and contractual requirements and prepare financial statements required by rule 117-2-03 of the Administrative Code.
(B) The management of each local public office is responsible for the assertions underlying the information in the public office's financial statements. The accounting system should assure that the following assertions are achieved for all transaction types and account balances applicable to the local public office's operations, considering the basis of accounting applicable to it:
(1) Assertions about classes of transactions and events for the period under audit:
(a) Occurrence: Transactions and events that have been recorded have occurred and pertain to the entity.
(b) Completeness: All transactions and events that should have been recorded have been recorded.
(c) Accuracy: Amounts and other data relating to recorded transactions and events have been recorded appropriately.
(d) Cutoff: Transactions and events have been recorded in the correct accounting period.
(e) Classification: Transactions and events have been recorded in the proper accounts.
(2) Assertions about account balances at the period end:
(a) Existence/occurrence: That recorded assets (and liabilities, if generally accepted accounting principles apply) exist as of fiscal year end, recorded transactions have occurred and are not fictitious.
(b) Completeness: That all account balances and transactions that should be included in the financial records are included.
(c) Rights and obligations: That recorded assets are rights of the public office and recorded liabilities (if generally accepted accounting principles apply), are obligations of the public office at the fiscal year end.
(d) Valuation/allocation: That generally accepted accounting measurement and recognition principles are properly selected and applied. This includes accounting measurement and recognition principles prescribed by the auditor of state for public offices that are not required to follow generally accepted accounting principles.
(e) Presentation and disclosure: That financial statement elements are properly classified and described and appropriate disclosures are made as required by generally accepted accounting principles, or as prescribed by the auditor of state for entities that do not follow generally accepted accounting principles.
(C) The following systems and documents may be used to effectively maintain the accounting and budgetary records of the local public office:
(1) All local public offices should integrate the budgetary accounts, at the legal level of control or lower, into the financial accounting system. This means designing an accounting system to provide ongoing and timely information on unrealized budgetary receipts and remaining uncommitted balances of appropriations.
The legal level of control is the level (e.g., fund, program or function, department, or object) at which spending in excess of budgeted amounts would be a violation of law. This is established by the level at which the legislative body appropriates. For all local public offices subject to the provisions of Chapter 5705. of the Revised Code, except school districts and public libraries, the minimum legal level of control is described in section 5705.38 of the Revised Code. For school districts, the minimum legal level of control is prescribed in rule 117-6-02 of the Administrative Code. For public libraries, the minimum legal level of control is prescribed in rule 117-8-02 of the Administrative Code. The legal level of control is a discretionary decision to be made by the legislative authority, unless otherwise prescribed by statute.
(2) Purchase orders should be used to approve purchase commitments and to encumber funds against the applicable appropriation account(s), as required by division (D) of section 5705.41 of the Revised Code. Purchase orders are not effective unless the fiscal officer's certificate is attached. The certificate should be attached at the time a commitment to purchase goods or services is made.
(3) Vouchers may be used as a written order authorizing the drawing of a check in payment of a lawful obligation of the public office. Each voucher shall contain the date, purchase order number, the account code, amount, approval, and any other required information. The local office should also attach supporting documentation to the voucher, such as vendor invoices.
(D) All local public offices may maintain accounting records in a manual or computerized format. The records used should be based on the nature of operations and services the public office provides, and should consider the degree of automation and other factors. Such records should include the following:
(1) Cash journal, which typically contains the following information: the amount, date, receipt number, check number, account code, purchase order number, and any other information necessary to properly classify the transaction.
(2) Receipts ledger, which typically assembles and classifies receipts into separate accounts for each type of receipt of each fund the public office uses. The amount, date, name of the payor, purpose, receipt number, and other information required for the transactions can be recorded on this ledger.
(3) Appropriation ledger, which may assemble and classify disbursements or expenditure/expenses into separate accounts for, at a minimum, each account listed in the appropriation resolution. The amount, fund, date, check number, purchase order number, encumbrance amount, unencumbered balance, amount of disbursement, uncommitted balance of appropriations and any other information required may be entered in the appropriate columns.
(4) In addition, all local public offices should maintain or provide a report similar to the following accounting records:
(a) Payroll records including:
(i) W-2's, W-4's and other withholding records and authorizations.
(ii) Payroll journal that records, assembles and classifies by pay period the name of employee, the employee's identification number, hours worked, wage rates, pay date, withholdings by type, net pay, and other compensation paid to an employee (such as a termination payment), and the fund and account charged for the payments.
(iii) Check register that includes, in numerical sequence, the check number, payee, net amount, and the date.
(iv) Information regarding nonmonetary benefits such as car usage , life insurance, and health insurance.
(v) Information, by employee, regarding leave balances and usage.
(b) Utilities billing records including:
(i) Master file of service address, account numbers, billing address, type of services provided, and billing rates.
(ii) Accounts receivable ledger for each service type, including for each customer account, the outstanding balance due as of the end of each billing period (with an aging schedule for past due amounts), current usage and billing amount, delinquent or late fees due, payments received and noncash adjustments, each maintained by date and amount.
(iii) Cash receipts records, recording cash received and date received on each account. This information should be used to post payments to individual accounts in the accounts receivable ledger described above.
(c) Capital asset records including such information as the original cost, acquisition date, voucher number, the asset type (land, building, vehicle, etc.), asset description, location, and tag number. Local governments preparing financial statements using generally accepted accounting principles will want to maintain additional data. Capital assets are tangible assets that normally do not change form with use and should be distinguished from repair parts and supply items.
(E) Each local public office should establish a capitalization threshold so that, unless the local public office establishes a capitalization threshold for any individual item of five thousand dollars or more, at a minimum, eighty per cent of the local public office's non-infrastructure assets are identified, classified, and recorded on the local public office's financial records. Capitalization thresholds are best applied to individual items rather than to group of similar items such as desks and tables. Unless the effect of doing so would be to eliminate a significant portion of total capital assets such as books belonging to a library district,

The final judgment that Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly gave in the Microsoft antitrust trial will have little impact on Microsoft's customers, its partners, or Microsoft, in my opinion. Let's consider Kollar-Kotelly's three remedies. Then I'll propose remedies that I believe would have more impact on Microsoft and the market.
In remedy one, Kollar-Kotelly restricted Microsoft from striking agreements with hardware and software partners that require the exclusive use of Microsoft "middleware." TheWindows OS needs to work well without Microsoft middleware and let users easily remove Microsoft components without disabling their systems. The final judgment uses Internet Explorer (IE), Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine (JVM), Windows Media Player (WMP), Windows Messenger, and Outlook Express as examples of Microsoft middleware.
The first problem with remedy one is the way the judge defined the term "middleware." The traditional definition of middleware is a layer of software that connects an application to a resource (i.e., a database)—and that's a very broad definition. With the exception of JVM, the examples remedy one cites are applications. Therefore, the "middleware" remedy won't affect the typical IT administrator. An IT administrator usually orders pre-configured machines or loads a pre-configured system image from the network before deploying the machine to users. So if a hardware partner decides to strike a marketing deal with an application vendor such as Real Networks or AOL, rather than including WMP and MSN, then the deal will affect consumers, not IT.
In remedy two, Microsoft is required to document the APIs for its OSs so that competing software companies are on an even playing field with Microsoft's internal application developers. The documentation must be available by the time Microsoft releases the beta version of a product. For the typical software vendor, the process of documenting APIs won't change much. However, even though Microsoft hasn't documented APIs in the past, the developer community was quick to reverse engineer the undocumented APIs and post their documentation on the Internet. Remedy two, however, does not prevent Microsoft from making changes to the OS to favor its own applications, such as SQL Server, at a level below the published APIs.
The third remedy requires Microsoft to establish an Antitrust Compliance Committee to ensure that it complies with remedies one and two. Microsoft recently appointed three of its board members to this committee, so this committee will be self-regulating.
The overall goal of the final judgment is to force Microsoft to be more sensitive to its partners. This is a worthy goal, but I believe it falls short of having a significant impact on the market or punishing Microsoft for being found guilty of being a monopoly.
If I Were Judge for a Day
With only slight modifications, these remedies could have been made tougher while still providing protection to Microsoft for its intellectual property and its right to innovate. If I were judge for a day, here are the remedies I would have proposed instead of the ones that Kollar-Kotelly proposed.
- Ensure that the judgment clearly states that it applies to all Microsoft OSs, including embedded, server, and client OS versions. All the component examples listed in the final judgment were related to client versions of the OS, but Microsoft has engaged in much more anti-competitive behavior on the server side compared with the client OS. As an example, the server OS is the focus of the European anti-trust lawsuit.
- Require Microsoft to distribute competing applications on its Windows Update Web site so users can easily install and update Microsoft or non-Microsoft products. Microsoft could charge a reasonable marketing fee to competitors for inclusion in the Windows Update site. But for many software vendors, the exposure to millions of Windows customers would be the best marketing exposure they could buy.
- Require Microsoft to document every change to the OS that results in a performance or feature benefit to any of its applications. This requirement would let competitors duplicate performance gains in their own products by following Microsoft's examples.
- Require the Antitrust Compliance Committee to comprise a majority of non-Microsoft people. Put someone from Sun Microsystems and Netscape Communications on the committee, for example, to keep it honest. I would then require the Committee to make its findings available to the judge every six months. Microsoft should receive serious financial penalties if the Committee finds that the company is out of compliance with the final judgment.
- The final judgment didn't specify any financial damages awarded to the plaintiffs. I would have required Microsoft to compensate the hardware partners that substantiated during the trial that they lost money because of Microsoft's retaliatory practices. If you lose a case, you typically have to pay something. During a previous remedy negotiation session, Microsoft was willing to donate a billion dollars worth of software to schools. But the school donation wasn't included in the final judgment. The only people who made anything in this case are the lawyers. Where have I heard that before?
I believe my proposed remedies would have increased competition and fairness, while protecting Microsoft's right to innovate. In addition, it would have put some real teeth into remedy enforcement by having non-Microsoft employees participate in the monitoring process. Finally, I would like to see Microsoft pay something besides legal costs for abusing its monopoly power. In this scenario, the plaintiffs could have donated their damage awards to schools, which would have turned a bad situation into something positive.

A triple layer chocolate mousse cake for the Dude's birthday
I know I'm always complaining about being old but blimey, my youngest was 15 yesterday. The Dude is mahoosive and has turned into a handsome, kind and funny teenager who is American Football mad and a bit of a gym obsessive. We're all immensely proud of him.
As is the tradition at English Towers, he's been allowed to choose the birthday cakeage. Usually this means they choose the most difficult thing they possibly can and today is no exception. Flicking through my cakey Pinterest pins, the birthday boy opted for a bloody enormous triple layer chocolate mousse cake, but without the white chocolate layer. A mousse cake should be soft and melty, so I decided on a lovely soft flourless chocolate cake as a base layer, then topped with a dark chocolate mousse and then a milk chocolate one. Simples.
One word of warning: sometimes mousse takes a while to set. If you need this cake in the evening, make it in the morning or the night before. If desperation sets in, a blast in the freezer for a half hour will help it along. As you can see from mine, the top layer wasn't quite set and started to collapse – by the time we'd lit the candles, the Maltesers were sliding down the side of the cake. No matter, we just scoffed it really quick.
For the flourless chocolate cake
This is an easy cake to make and makes a great pudding served with whipped cream. It WILL sink in the middle, but when topped with the mousses of course this doesn't matter.
As I was trying to build up height I used a smallish (8") high sided loose-bottomed tin, with the sides lined with cut-to-fit silicone baking sheet. Remember you're going to add the mousse layers so line the sides quite high. Preheat the oven to 160/gas 3.
125g dark chocolate
60g butter
3 large free range eggs, separated
125g soft brown sugar
So melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over some hot water. As soon as the water starts to bubble, turn it off and let the butter and chocolate melt gently together.
Meanwhile, whisk the egg whites until they're really firm.
When the butter and chocolate are melted, stir in the brown sugar, the vanilla extract and the egg yolks, then gently fold in the whisked egg whites.
Pour into the prepared cake tin and bake for about half an hour or until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Leave to cool.
Just thought I'd slip in a pic of my new scales here – I love them. You can find them on Amazon – they're called Epicurean by Ozeri. Rather lush aren't they?
For the mousse layers
You only need a thin (ish) layer of mousse. I made my first layer far too thick, so I've halved the quantities here.
125ml double cream
150g dark chocolate
2 eggs, separated
So just pop the double cream in a saucepan and break in the chocolate. Put it on a low heat and as soon as the cream is warm enough to melt the chocolate, turn the heat off, continuing to stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Leave to cool a little while you whisk the egg whites. Do check that the cream/chocolate mixture is cool enough (it needs to be lukewarm otherwise it will scramble the eggs) before mixing in the egg yolk.
Then just fold in the whites, again take your time and wait until everything is a uniform colour. Pour the mousse on top of the chocolate cake layer and return to the fridge.
When this layer is set, make another batch of mousse with milk chocolate. Pour VERY gently over the first mousse and allow to set.
To serve, you need to be VERY careful – firstly make sure it's properly set (ahem) and then balance it on something solid and slowly push the tin down. Decorate if you want, or just ram it into your face.

I really hate doing house chores! If I could, I would have developed an app, that could do my chores for me, but since that was not possible, I did the next best thing; I developed an app, that could motivate me to get my boring chores done.
Chorganizer keeps your chores – yes, you guessed it – ORGANIZED. AND you get the pleasure of checking off the chores when you've done them.
How Chorganizer works
- You add your chores by tapping the + button, enter WHAT, WHERE, WHEN and how often (the number of days between doing the chore)
- You select a color and an icon/illustration for the chore (you can chose between 20 colors and 19 icons)
- Chorganizer will always list your chores in the correct order with the one(s) you have to do first on top.
- When you have done a chore, you check it off and Chorganizer will move it down the list and restart the days count until you have to do it again.
That's it – easy peasy! I hope my Chorganizer will help you do your chores, too.
Just some of ideas
Divide your chores into manageable tasks and do a little every day. For me, that makes all the difference. And having my chores organized ALMOST makes it fun. I said ALMOST! House chores are never fun. But thinking of this kind of house (and garden) work as mini workouts, also motivates me.

I would say losing 4-0 is getting worked over, depsite how well you played in areas of the match.
As for Welbeck I think it is a decent signing. I've always liked him to a certain extent when I have seen him play for England. Hard to know more than that as I haven't seen enough of him. Fellow pros seem to rate him quite highly so I am looking forward to what he can do. He certainly has skill and can finish and I would probably say that in some areas he is a better fit than Giroud, especially in terms of his pace. It could be a bit like Sturridge, in that once he is given a chance he starts to shine. £16m is a fair bit to pay for him, but then that is the England tax at work. I would certainly have preferred him over Balotelli as Welbeck suits our system more than Balotelli would and he is younger and has less baggage. It could work out to be a stroke of genius or he could just provide decent cover till Giroud comes back. I don't think there is really any down side to it.
The lack of a defensive signing is what irked me more.

Flood and Coastal Management
Around 85% of Australia's population lives within 50km of the coast, alongside a significant proportion of key assets and infrastructure. Yet coastal communities are exposed to a range of natural hazards that naturally occur in these zones and that can cause severe damage. At the same time, all Australian communities are exposed to various forms of flooding, including flash flood, riverine floods, and storm surge.
Applied research to improve our characterisation of hazards such as floods, storm surge and tsunami supports the evidence base required to manage these risks appropriately and sustainably. Ultimately, the outcomes of the projects in the flood and coastal management cluster will strengthen our national capability to make informed decisions for an improved resilience of communities and infrastructure.
