Operation Fuel is releasing its annual report on the energy affordability problem facing Connecticut's low- and moderate-income families, as well as senior citizens.
The report is scheduled to be unveiled on Thursday at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford.
Officials at Operation Fuel, a statewide fuel assistance program, said there continues to be a significant gap between what lower income households pay for energy bills and what they can actually afford. The group estimates one in five households can't afford their energy bill.
Connecticut has one of the highest electrical rates in the U.S., in addition to high costs for home heating oil and natural gas.
Operation Fuel predicts an extensive need for winter emergency energy assistance this season.

Entourage's seventh season finally hit its stride with "Bottoms Up," the first episode of the season that got far more right than it did wrong. Each of the five main characters had a moment to shine, and some old familiar faces stopped by, alongside new celebrity guest stars, to steal some laughs. More importantly, most of the season's central plot threads and subplots at last took major steps in interesting directions, leaving me with the impression the season's remaining episodes might have a good chance of redeeming the four meandering previous installments. Without a doubt, it's the first episode of the year I have no problem calling a success.
Seeing as how I've often called Vince the least likeable and entertaining character on the show, it was great to see this episode finally push his character arc down a new, intriguing and realistic path. We've seen Vince's career stall temporarily in the past, but none of his trouble spots ever really seemed like much more than brief rough patches in a relatively smooth flight to the top of Hollywood. By hinting at a possible budding substance abusive problem, having him cavort with porn star Sasha Grey and leave studio heads and Hollywood power players (not to mention Stan Lee) with the impression he has more than a few screws loose, the show's writers have finally provided the character a feasible plot line capable of both compelling dramatic stakes and high comedy. And the gag with Lee trying to place Sasha Grey's face? Hilarious. Also, am I the only one with the sneaking suspicion there might be a certain highly illegal secret ingredient in Turtle's prized tequila, one that he and Vince are completely oblivious to?
Ari's storyline likewise hit a high point this week, as Lizzy found the perfect partner in her war of vengeance in the form of Amanda Daniels (Carla Gugino). Like Vince's descent into extreme irresponsibility (and perhaps worse), Ari being hit with a lawsuit by a spurned female ex-employee is long overdue. And not only did the episode hit Ari with what is potentially the biggest threat he's faced in the series to date, but it also supplied him his first laugh-out-loud scenes of the season, the funniest of which came courtesy of guest star Mike Tyson. Just as he did in The Hangover, Tyson showed some genuine comedic chops here, and came across as far more natural than the majority of the athletes who've appeared on the show in the past. And I don't know about you, but I'd definitely watch a Brady Bunch remake starring Iron Mike and Jessica Simpson.
And of course there was more Bob Saget, which is almost always a good thing, at least in terms of this show. I loved how Saget knew exactly which taboo sexual act Eric was talking about with Sloan on the phone just by over-hearing a few innocuous remarks. It was likewise great to see Johnny Drama once again burnt by a fellow Hollywood wash-up. Hopefully we haven't seen the last of John Stamos, Saget or John Garland's writer character, and we get the chance to watch Drama have some form of revenge on at least one of the three.
With Eric and Sloane's misadventures in bed rounding out the episode with some uncomfortable (in more ways than one) comedy, "Bottoms Up" delivered a solid half-hour of laughs and dramatic complications. For those of us who spent most of the season's first four episodes wondering if this show was on its last legs, this latest episode, the first winner of the year, was a welcome sight indeed.

(Apparently now the Zuffa is going to have to start trying again with Strikeforce.)
During today's pre-UFC 140 press conference and media scrum UFC president Dana White revealed that his *other* MMA promotion will indeed be sticking around on Showtime and that he will lead the organization as it makes some changes in 2012.
"[Strikeforce is] staying, and hopefully I'll have all the information for you next week," White said. "Just sit and wait and watch what I do. Trust me, it's going to be just fine. Like I said last time I talked to you guys about this, I'm getting into this, and I'm going to handle it. Watch and see. We'll see what happens. I know I keep saying this every week, but that deal should be wrapped up any day now, and then I'll make the decisions on who goes where and what's going to happen. So we should know hopefully by Monday."
White hinted to MMAJunkie that Strikeforce could be run under a similar model to the WEC, which was once considered a feeder league for the UFC.
"[The WEC] did work. We had a great television deal with the WEC. It was very successful," he pointed out. "The fights were awesome. There were people that loved watching the WEC fights. It absolutely worked."

Genre: Puzzle, Casual
Release date: April 7, 2016
"A machine ponders its loneliness. It scans the radio spectrum for an answer to its question."
Antenna is a short puzzle game by LWNA. You move a little robot around and re-activate the antennae which dot the landscape.
The puzzles are simple and the keys used to solve each one are displayed with the puzzle. Note, some of the puzzles are sound-based so you must have the sound turned up and you'll have to be able to tell if one pitch is higher or lower than another. You won't need perfect pitch, but if you're totally tone deaf you may have problems.
The game is nice and relaxing – there's no pressure and you can take your time.
It's short; I completed it within half an hour, but it is free.
The only difficulty I had was actually starting the game. It comes up with a dark landscape and there's a small white box with the letter X in it. "Great," I thought, "an image failed to load." And I couldn't do anything. The mouse did nothing. The arrow keys did nothing. The WASD keys did nothing. Comments on Steam showed other people having the same problem.
It took me awhile, but I finally figured out that the small white box was telling me to press the "X" key on the keyboard Look at the screenshots and you'll see how the game tells you what keys to use in each puzzle. Hey, I may be slow but at least I'm not too swift.
Once I figured that out, the game went smoothly and it was a delightful experience. I hope LWNA comes out with another game.
+ Simple puzzle game
+ Atmospheric graphics
+ Casual, relaxing
+ It's FREE
- It's Short
- User interface different for every puzzle

text: | Reprints December 1, 2004 by Alev Uneri, MD AbstractTo investigate whether migraine is more common in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) than in the general population, the author conducted a retrospective study of 476 patients with BPPV seen over 12 years at a tertiary referral center. Records of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of BPPV followed for 1 to 7 years were reviewed. The typical history of BPPV and the characteristic torsional positional nystagmus were identified in all patients. A modified Epley maneuver was performed for all patients with posterior semicircular canal BPPV, with a 98% success rate. The survey consisted of detailed patient questionnaires and vestibular tests. Migraine and motion sickness were three times more common in patients with BPPV than in the general population. A family history of migraine (58.4%) and vertigo (44.9%) was also more common in patients than in a control group. ENT Journal provides full text articles to our registered members.

1993 Chevrolet Corsica LT 3.1
Good cruiser, shame about the quality
LHD mirror adjusting mechanism, adjusting arm assembly loose
Main beam function on head-light, if engaged for an extended period of time it automatically shut itself off
LHD electric window stopped working
Cracked head-light (low beam)
Loose LHD blinker
Minor oil leak from seal between oil-filter assembly and engine block
Minor leak from transmission (affects more or less every vehicle with this trans. I'm told)
Weak front dampers, damper on LHD side leaks slightly
Air condition, weak operation (not fixed)
Minor cooling water leak (has not been able to locate this one, must add 0.5 ltr every second month)
Central locking does not work when freezing temperature.
General Comments:
A very good cruiser, but the quality could be a lot better.
When I bought this one last autumn, it had a 10 point repair and service list from an independent inspector. Most of the points was not that serious (the 4 repair points are listed above). But the last 5 months of regular use in harsh winter conditions have not done this car any good. So far the repair list is growing by the week.
The reason that I bought this car in the first place was that this was a one owner (old man) 50000 km (about 30000 miles), had almost complete service history and was totally rust free. I also liked the ride very much, I've driven cars costing twice as much that has a worse ride. It seemed such a bargain at first, so quiet, good straight line ride, a strong V6 and a lot of standard equipment.
This car is a 1993 model, but was first put on the road 1994.
There are also several things that irritates me as I have driven this car on a regular basis, namely rattles and squeaks when driving on poor surface, it simply does not seem to be as well built as most European and Japanese cars.
The reason that I don't give this car 1 point on "Reliability marks" is that the basic construction of this car seem to be very sound, it does not rust, it always starts (even at -20 deg. Celcius when half of my neighbours are standing with their head down in the engine bay) and the transmission shifts sweetly. Shame about the rest of this car...
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
Review Date: 4th February, 2003

BEKHRADNIA and MR
440. And despite their being under-represented
(Mr Bekhradnia) Yes. I am afraid there is a pretty
clear relationship between A-level achievement and social class
and whatever your social class you are less likely to drop out
the higher your A-level points score is.
Chairman: Is that not in direct contravention
to what Claire Callender told us in her research?
441. I was just going to come to that. In some
of the work that has been done for you by Mantz Yorke it puts
another possibility. It says that working class students cited
financial problems as influential on their departure more frequently
than other students and that these students were less likely to
return to higher education at some point in the future. Students
who regarded themselves as working class tended to a greater extent
than others to admit they had made the wrong choice in the field
of study than elsewhere. When the responses about social class
were divided according to self-reported social class there were
marked differences relating to finance. Working class students
reported more often than middle class students that financial
problems had exerted a moderate or considerable influence on their
withdrawal. And finally, on page 7 of a later chapter, it said
that as far as full time sandwich students were concerned working
class withdrawals cited significantly more than others financial
difficulty in influencing their decision, but analysis showed
that financial difficulty was more likely to discourage working
class students from returning to study. Certainly in terms of
the qualitative findings of that research, which is also gone
into further with different analyses in this pamphlet, which is
your booklet for December 1997, there is data to suggest that
finance is a factor.
(Mr Bekhradnia) Yes, you are quite right. What you
need to do is interpret the two sets of information alongside
each other. As I said in an earlier answer, we cannot provide
the richness and the detail that some of the interview analyses
provide you with, but we do have data, and you need to interpret
the data. The data certainly do seem to indicateand they
can only be taken to indicate; you cannot draw hard and fast conclusions
from thisthat there are academic considerations that seem
to lie at the heart of drop-out. There may well be second order
financial considerations but you can explain a large part of drop-out,
it seems, by reference to academic considerations.
442. Clearly the fact that people from poorer
backgrounds do less well at A-level is understood and therefore
a smaller proportion of them will get into higher education, but
I would still have thought that they would at least approach those
that get in, the average points score size, but given that it
is going to take some time to improve that situation and your
research was done in 1997 and finance may well be a factor, do
you think if it is a factor then the withdrawal of grants from
students in social classes four and five makes that more of a
factor or less of a factor? It is a key question.
(Mr Bekhradnia) No, that is speculation.
443. I am inviting you to speculate based on
your work.
(Mr Bekhradnia) But I have no idea, and nor have you,
whether the drop-out has actually gone up since then.
444. Regardless of whether drop-out has gone
up or down, because there may be other factors involved, isolating
the issue of finance being a factor, particularly for poorer students
who may be on the brink anyway, substituting loan for grant or
debt for grant, would that be more or less likely to make finance
a key issue?
(Mr Bekhradnia) If finance becomes more difficult
then it may well have a bigger impact on drop-out, but until 1997/98
(and it is, I agree, tantalising that the data stop; next year's
data will begin to go into the period when the finance arrangements
changed), on the basis of the analyses that we have done it seems
that you can explain drop-out to a very large extent by reference
to academic factors. Admittedly finance might be a second order
445. Can I invite you to send us the tables
for three D's, because choosing three A's, they have very low
drop-out rates anyway and it makes it more difficult for us to
(Mr Thompson) Yes.
446. As I say, it is strange that you chose
to look at three A's.
(Mr Thompson) Going back to what Claire said, and
also Mantz Yorke said and the other researchers, they pointed
out that the decision to drop out is a complex one and untangling
the different factors is very difficult. The other thing that
Claire mentioned was, what do you say about the people who struggled
on possibly with financial difficulties? As you say, Mantz Yorke
said 39 per cent cited financial difficulties as one of the contributing
factors. I suppose what we are unable to get at is, if you like
with the ideal experiment. If we were to take a group of students
and we were to remove those financial difficulties, what difference
would it make? The illustrative calculation we provideand
we will do some moreattempts to answer this. We will get
at this question when we do the modelling properly. One of the
problems of course is that we really have insufficient data about
the entry qualifications and we are trying to build on what we
so that we can untangle these.
447. I agree that data is a problem, and maybe
it would be a good ideait will take some timeto
compare Scotland, which has done a more widespread effort than
the efforts that have been done here to return money to poorer
students as opportunities, and maybe some comparative studies
in the years to come. It is obviously not a good idea in the first
year of grants now in Scotland. Would that be worth HEFCE investigating
in a comparative study because you could control for many factors?
(Mr Thompson) Yes, what we call a natural experiment
in social science.
448. You are going to investigate?
(Mr Thompson) Yes.
449. This is quite interesting in the sense
that Claire did put a great deal of emphasis on this link between
student financial hardship and dropping out whereas you have introduced
very strongly in your theme academic qualifications. We had previous
evidence that in fact when you interview a student they are not
likely, given human nature, to say, "I was a failure. I did
not make the grade. It was too difficult." They will give
a range of other explanations. It has been a very good balance.
Do you think that is at the heart of some of it?
(Mr Thompson) We are doing some research into employability
and we are getting at the problem by talking to graduates, to
their line managers and to their teachers to try and get a full
picture from the different points of view of the relationship.
In this case I would think that work which relies on the perception
or understanding of just the student is probably insufficient
and that we should do more detailed studies (the aerial photograph
work that I mentioned earlier and then we go and look in detail
at a piece of research) in order to try and get at the view of
the teachers or the lecturers and people that respond from that
side and try and get a more rounded picture of what happens. Certainly
that is what institutions themselves should be encouraged to do.
450. I want to round this session up, which
has been exceedingly useful. One of the points that came up when
we were discussing questions to ask you was this: is there a danger
that your decision to quote popular universities, saying they
can exceed their MASN by up to four per cent, will further weaken
other universities who are not going to get the four per cent,
and the knock-on of that will be to make their problems of retention
even more difficult?
(Mr Bekhradnia) The answer to that is no because if
we thought the answer was yes we probably would not have taken
that step. The evidence is that very few institutions breach their
MASN, let alone go up to four per cent above it. In reality, if
it had had an influence on some institutions it would have been
at the margins. The other thing to say is that this control on
student numbers, and it is only full time undergraduate student
numbers that we control, was never introduced originally as a
way of managing and planning the system. If we were to want to
manage and control the system in a way that protected some institutions
by holding others back, I think we would want to do so by looking
at rather more comprehensive instruments for doing that than this
one which is an accidental instrument. This instrument was introduced
as a way of limiting public expenditure rather than safeguarding
some institutions at the expense of others. The answer to that
really is that the evidence just is not there.
451. Just to conclude then, are there areas
in terms of this pleasant interlude (I hope it was pleasant for
you; it was pleasant for us) which you feel we might profitably
have asked you which we did not cover? Are there aspects that
you have come across in your work that we should address in terms
of retention that you have not picked up this morning we are not
focusing on?
(Mr Bekhradnia) No. I think quite honestly all the
issues that are in our minds are the ones that you have raised.
The only thing that I would want to emphasise is that of course
the evidence that we are presenting does pre-date the work that
was presented to you this morning and so we need to interpret
it in that light. I do think that the combination of quantitative
data and qualitative data is a useful one. The qualitative data
gives you an idea of where you ought to be investigating but they
need to be brought together.
452. Sitting where you are in HEFCE is there
a view that you privately talk about over coffee or whatever where
you share Claire Callender's obvious real concern that poor students,
because they no longer have a maintenance allowance, are tending
to drop out in increasing numbers?
(Mr Bekhradnia) We have not seen the evidence for
that yet, I have to say, but nor would we have done because the
data trails by a year or two.
453. It is too early. Can I thank you and congratulate
you for one of the best answers I have heard. If it was not in
a Yes Minister script it should be if they ever revive
the series. It was when you said, "We were already getting
on with this before the Secretary of State asked us to do it."
(Mr Bekhradnia) There was a subtle message there and
that is that drop-out and access and participation in particular
have been high on the HEFCE agenda for years.
Chairman: That anticipation of the wishes of
your master was wonderful. Thank you.

July, Chapter 11: The Cost of Care Summary and Analysis
Hazel Mitchell is Hermann's financial administrator. She decides who gets which resources. This chapter is not merely about the tough decisions she faces but about the simple fact that healthcare is not free. Morality does not want to let us consider costs when it comes to those in extreme need, but in the end we must. Considering the cost is Hazel's unpopular job. Hazel has tabulated Armando's bill to date - $57,020.86, a sum that he cannot hope to repay. Belkin goes onto describe the two other major hospital facilities in Houston. There is a poorer hospital that deals with uninsured patients, Ben Taub, and there is a richer hospital, Methodist Hospital, which is the largest private hospital on the planet. Hermann stands somewhere in-between. Hermann is not publicly funded like Ben...

Oven job with 4 slabs base
Rado and other oven builders and chefs,
attached are some images of my Pizza oven which was fully completed in 2010. Building it was largely inspired by your designs.
I had to modify the plans to fit my base which was based on four 600 x 600 millimeters slabs each. So the oven internal area size was scaled down slightly. Building it was a great job and I enjoyed it from the start to the finish!
The measurement conversion is 600mm = 23.6″
I included a couple of images of the construction.
We have had some great times using the oven, mostly for cooking pizzas but I have baked bread and done the Christmas roast over the last three years in it.
Thanks again for your inspiration and guidance.
Best Wishes,
Steve from Devon in England.

Programs: Research-based Tools Used to Empower Girls
Girls Inc. delivers life-changing programs that inspire girls of all ages to be strong, smart, and bold. Research-based curricula, delivered by trained mentoring professionals, equip girls to achieve academically; lead healthy and physically active lives; manage money; navigate media messages; and discover an interest in science, technology, engineering, and math.
The structure of the programs is individualized to the needs of our program partners at the sites where we work, however, most program sessions run twelve weeks and meet for an hour and a half each week. Girls Inc. of San Diego County is committed to investing significantly in each girl so establishes and maintains relationships with program sites that last for years. Ideally, we try to expose the same girl to multiple Girls Inc. programs throughout their middle and high school tenure. We work with each girl to reach her potential academically, physically and emotionally.
Through the generous support of donors, we are currently able to bring our research-based programs free of charge to the girls we serve in some of the highest needs neighborhoods throughout our county. Currently we are serving middle and high school girls with semester long programs in select locations in Escondido, Vista, Oceanside, and Fallbrook. Periodically we also provide one-day programs throughout San Diego County.
Latinas Y Que
Latina girls are empowered to take charge of their lives. Girls learn about their cultural and family heritages, hone their leadership and communication skills, participate in community activism and health promotion, and pursue academic and career development opportunities with family support.
Girls Inc. Economic Literacy
Girls learn about money and the economy, including how to manage, invest, and save money and how to help others through philanthropy. As girls explore how the economy affects everyone locally and globally, they develop skills critical to being financially savvy and to becoming economically independent adults.
Girls Inc. Friendly PEERsuasion
Girls develop skills to resist pressure to use harmful substances, such as drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and household chemicals. After learning healthy ways to manage stress and to deflect peer, media, and other pressures that contribute to substance use, girls become peer educators (PEERsuaders) for younger girls.
Girls Inc. Leadership and Community Action
Girls build leadership skills and create lasting social change through community action projects. With support from women in their community, girls celebrate the heritage of girls and women as leaders and social change agents and realize their own power as community resources and trustees of the common good.
Girls Inc. Media Literacy
Girls increase their awareness of the scope and power of the media and the effects of media messages on girls and women. They learn to analyze what they see and hear in the media and advocate for change in entertainment, news, and advertising. As girls create media that are more realistic and reflective of their lives, they learn about careers and the positive use of media.
Girls Inc. Operation SMART
Girls develop enthusiasm for and skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Through hands-on activities, girls explore, ask questions, persist, and solve problems. By interacting with women and men pursuing STEM careers, girls come to view these careers as exciting and realistic options for themselves.
Girls Inc. Preventing Adolescent Pregnancy
Girls acquire the knowledge and skills for taking charge of and making informed decisions about their sexual health. Exploring values, practicing responses in different situations, and thinking about their futures help girls identify ways and reasons to avoid early pregnancy and prevent sexually transmitted infections, including HIV.
Girls Inc. Project BOLD
Girls learn skills and strategies to lead safer lives in their homes, in relationships, in their communities, and online. Girls learn specific self-defense techniques and how to seek out and talk to caring adults about personal violence. Older girls also take on a community action project to advocate for a safer world for all women and girls.

A Harold And Maude Moment On Britain's Got Talent
OK this is actually one of those inspirational clips with Paddy a 79 year old lady who dances with Nico who is about half her age. Paddy is quick to say it is a purely professional relationship, but there is one lift that veers into Harold and Maude territory!
What looks like it is going to be a joke audition but quickly turns into this is frigging amazing.
Also I want Paddy's legs.
Don't expect moments like this on Australia's Got Talent as the show has been axed.

Truly amazing. No point in my saying i want to be like her at her age – I want to be like her NOW!!! Hope they do win.

Wow! I think this is even more amazing than SuBo! Can't see them winning, but it would be wonderful if they did.

What an inspiration! As per RR's previous question, with our rapidly ageing population, it I would be a nod to wisdom and experience if MasterChef could cast a 95 year old.
After Gary excitedly fires the metaphorical starting pistol, "Your 60 minutes starts … NOW!" contestants scamper in record time to the pantry.
To the incredulous commentary of The Three Wise Monkeys hosts, the nonagenarian toddles back half an hour later, his mobility aid laden with ingredients (a production assistant having found him wandering lost among the produce).
However, his superior culinary skills (ie he can boil an egg) ensures he makes the finals despite developing dementia during the season's shooting, which results in him attempting to wash his genitalia in the sous vide bath (the "hot dog" challenge) and consuming his own creation before it can be judged.
George: Where's your dish?
Ninety-five year old: I got hungry – so I ate it.
Producers, feel free to use any of these ideas when scripting.

Ali, if it was my old granny and granpa they may have wanted to rest their dentures on the side of the kitchen bench while they prepped.
Good pastry trimmers though.
- 8 Littlepetal { 04.16.14 at 10:13 pm }
You are so funny, daisy. LOL!!!
Also the 95 years old will need more break, toilet break! Imagine cooking halfway and asked George to keep an eye on the cooking so he/she can go to the loo or maybe portaloo!!! If the loo is too far away.
Thanks for the brilliant idea, Ali.
Seniors Masterchef. Must be 70 and over. This will revive C10.

Love it BDD.
Litlepetal, that dancing granny will be you at 90.
Me too if I didn't need to go easy on my right foot now. I would love to try the move where Nico throws me in the air and ends up with my crotch in his face.
Back to the cooking, the oldies need dinner by 4.00 pm so they would never survive the wait at instant kitchen.
- 11 Sandii { 04.17.14 at 9:19 am }
Yea daisy they do like to eat early. Life revolves around meals and pills. Bless them. My parents could give any master chef a run for their money. None of this pretentious undercooked food, but delicious home grown, and lovingly cooked.
- 12 Sandii { 04.17.14 at 9:28 am }
Just watched the clip… Fabulous!
- 13 Georgietake2 { 04.17.14 at 10:31 am }
I have shared this clip with everyone I work with, I love it. How sad that ugly minded people like Simon Cowell prejudge others and their abilities. I bet Simon couldn't even master the basic footwork, but his arrogant smug face was just so off putting. The look both dancers give him when he presses the button is priceless. Why does every contestant on "reality" TV have to be youngish and prettyish – you know what I mean – when BB went to channel 9 they said they were going to mix up the contestants. All we got were the same opinionated, brain dead, 20 & Early 30 year olds. Imagine someone like Paddy in the BB house, she would kick their emo butts.
- 14 daisy { 04.17.14 at 10:47 am }
The couple obviously wanted Simon to press his buzzer. That's why they started dull and then gave him the we'll show you look.
I was thinking that Simon was even told to yawn and press early for effect. It added to the entertainment.
- 15 2ndhand { 04.17.14 at 11:15 am }
While I loved the clip and have tremendous admiration for them (esp. Paddy) I did read that they have already won a Spanish TV talent contest – so the judges would have known that and yes, Simon was probably cued for his reactions!! Takes away a bit from the moment, but doesn't decry their performance

Stock market investing is an excellent method of earning some extra income. However, in order to make profitable investments, you first need to understand how the market works. The following article will provide you with great advice that can help you make big returns on your stock market investments.
Before investing in the stock market, learn how to invest. Before plunking down real money, you can avoid some http://nobsimreviews.com/tesler-software-scam of the common beginner mistakes by watching the market for a while. Ideally, you'd like to have watched the market for at least three years. If you wait long enough, you will know how the market functions and you will be making the right decisions.
Ensure that your investments are spread around. Like the old adage says, do not put your eggs into one basket. Failing to diversify means that the few investments you do participate in must perform well, or your stay in the market will be short-lived and costly.
Try and earn at least 10% a year since you can get close to that with an exchange traded fund. If you'd like to estimate your return from a stock, find the earnings growth rate that's projected and add that to the dividend yield. A stock which yields two percent but has twelve percent earnings growth is significantly better than the dividend yield suggests.
There are too many factors involved to try and make your money from timing the market. Research shows that patience pays off and slow and steady is the tried and true method for success in the world of stock. Figure out how much you can afford to invest on a regular basis. Then, set up a regular investment schedule, and stick with it.
Experiment, at least on paper, with short selling. Short selling involves "borrowing" shares for a set period of time. What happens is an investor will borrow stock from a lender and agree to deliver exactly the same amount of that stock at a predetermined future date. Investors will then sell shares in which they could repurchase them when the price of the stock drops.
Never overly invest in the company that you work for. While owning stock may seem like a proud thing to do, it can be risky, as well. For instance, if your company has something happen to it then not only will your paycheck suffer, but your portfolio will be in danger, as well. Conversely, if the company has a solid history and employees can buy shares at a discount, this could become a very lucrative opportunity for you.
A simple investment plan is the best bet for a beginner. It is smart to prepare yourself for entering the market by reading up on many different investment strategies, but you should choose one method and stick with it if it works for you. That one piece of advice might save you a lot of money over time.
Avoid investing in too much of your employer's stock. It's ok to add support to your company by investing in their stock, but sometimes this can backfire. If the largest chunk of stock you own is that of your company's and your company does poorly, you'll lose a major portion of your net worth.
Stay away from any stock advice that you did not ask for. Listen to your investment adviser or planner, particularly if they are successful as well. Anyone else should be ignored. You cannot replace the value of performing your own research, especially if stock-picking and investment advice is being pushed on you by some marketer that gets paid to persuade you.
Remember that cash does not always translate into profit. Every financial operation needs cash flow, and your investment portfolio is no exception. It's crucial to reinvest and keep money on hand for bills and day to day needs. Make sure you have half a year of living expenses stored in a safe location in case something were to occur to you.
Generally speaking, novice traders ought to begin with cash accounts, not margin accounts. It is less risky to start with a cash account because the losses can be controlled. These accounts are also best for an initial education of the market.
When you delve into the stock market, if you figure out a winning strategy, stick with it! Maybe you are looking for companies with very large profits, or perhaps you are looking for companies with lots of handy cash? Make sure to only utilize a strategy that fits your style.
It is generally best to follow a constraint strategy. To do so, look for stocks that are not in high demand. See if undervalued companies are good sources of potential profit. Companies that everyone knows about sell for very high. There is no way to make money on those stocks. By discovering companies that aren't well known, but have solid earnings, you could discover diamonds that could earn you a lot of money.
As this article stated previously, you can make a good income by investing in stocks. Once you know what you're actually doing, you'll be amazed at just how much money you can earn. Use the knowledge provided to you as an advantage.

Big Green Purse: One in a Million
You remember Big Green Purse, the awesome ecobrainchild of Diane MacEachern. You know there's a great, informative and fun website on how to spend your $$$ more enviro-sustainably, and you also know there's an awesome book that just hit the shelves (and if you're interested in getting a copy of the book, you really really need to come back to ecochick in the next couple of weeks. Really, you do. Just sayin.)
What you may not know is about their One In a Million initiative. Knowing that one of the most effective ways to make a difference is to shift your spending into environmentally friendly products and services, the One In A Million initiative is aiming to get one million shoppers to redirect $1000 of their yearly spending into these services. The site gives you great ideas on where to start shifting that spending (local, organic food? Energy efficient appliances? Fair Trade Coffee?) and, once you sign up, it gives you a helpful balance sheet so that you can track your new green spending.
It's a habit that you may find will stick once you've started it. Go become One In A Million!

25 Easy Ways to Green Our Community This SummerFriday, June 19th, 2015
Whether you have just a few minutes or are planning a large community project, every action can have a positive impact when it comes to greening our communities of Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Parkland County or Edmonton. To help you get started this summer, and in celebration of its 25th anniversary, TD Friends of the Environment Foundation is sharing 25 easy ways to green where you live.
1. Volunteer for community greening projects
2. Pick up garbage at a local park
3. Volunteer at a community garden (or start one in Spruce Grove or Stony Plain)
4. Help build or teach at an outdoor classroom

EDU 301 Principle and Methods of Instruction
This course presents the basic instructional principles and methods in education. It focuses on the principles of learning and teaching, the significance and necessity of being planned and organized in learning. To this end, this course will cover the basic principles of course design (e.g. yearly plans, lesson plans, and etc.) as well as basic methods and techniques in learning and teaching. In this course students will discover the ways to apply their relevant theoretical knowledge while learning how to utilize their teaching materials effectively. Students will also become conscious of teacher responsibilities and develop strategies to enhance quality in education.
EDU 413 Education and social Development
A central focus of the course is policy analysis. We will be examining various bodies of evidence regarding the relationship beween education and different aspects of social development, but always with a view to what that evidence tells us about how one might alter educational policy (and practice) in particular places so as to contribute more effectively to social development.
Another core assumption of the course is that one cannot really understand the contemporary educational policy and practice issues and challenges we will be considering without some knowledge of their history. As I wrote in an essay we will be reading later in the course: "although I was not formally trained as an historian, I soon found that if I was to do my work well I had to become one. The contemporary educational problems with which I was dealing in various parts of the world simply could not be understood without a solid knowledge of their history." This is true not only of developments within any particular nation/society, but of the comparative evidence and debates about it, which have been developing over many years. Thus the readings (and films) you will 2 encounter in this course range from very contemporary ("fresh off the press" or in "pre-publication form") to very "old" ("classics" of various types). As you may note some of these "classics" still seem very "fresh" in this early stage of a new millennium. This range will hopefully help us to get a better sense of that history and its influence and importance to understanding the "present."
MATH 370 Writing Mathematics
This course satisfies the Junior Year Writing requirement. Students will develop skills in writing, oral presentation, and team work. The first unit will focus on professional development. Students will learn about career and graduate school opportunities, practice interview skills, and create a resume and cover letter and a graduate school statement of purpose. In the second unit students will engage with the challenge of writing and speaking about mathematics and statistics to different audiences. The third unit will focus on research in mathematics and statistics and will culminate in an expository group paper on a research topic.
MATH 391 Introduction to K-12 Mathematics Teaching
This 3-credit course will have two components. The first will be a weekly hour-long seminar where students will be introduced to and discuss fundamentals of teaching secondary math – common core, curriculum, assessment, and resources. The second credit hour will be earned through supporting basic math. This will involve coming to all classes, working with small groups, leading a whole-class discussion, and teaching a mini-lesson.
