Is there a way to mount a
file.tar.bz2 without extracting it onto the filesystem? I don't care if the mount is read only.
Hopefully your answer will also apply to
"mount" in this context is meant to be akin to mounting an ISO file.
If you want to mess with fuse they have a plugin to mount archives, including tar.gz.
I'm kind of questioning what you want to do. there is a pretty huge model mismatch between a filesystem (random access to files, random access to bytes in a file) and an archive (needs to be read serially, a write in one byte can will affect all subsequent bytes). At least mount read only.
The term mount in this context is ill-defined. I'm guessing you want to look inside the tarball without extracting it. One handy utility for this is Midnight Commander. See also Wikipedia Midnight Commander page.
This creates a sort of virtual filesystem for tarballs, rpms, deb and all sorts of other archives. Just fire it up, and navigate to your tarball, and hit Enter. To read a file use F3, F5 to copy a file, F10 quit. On Linux at least there is a convenient command help at the bottom of the screen.
So, to summarize you can read the files inside your tarball and copy them from to your regular filesystem. Hopefully that will do you.
I did a little more checking, and it looks like MC is basically only supported on Unix-like systems like Linux, though there is a Windows port here of some sort. However, you don't state what your OS is. I suggest you do so.
As already stated, FUSE can be used. Here is a link to reading different archives using FUSE. libarchive is the first one, which allows mounting specifically tar.bz2 archives:
and here is a link to an old article that gives a tutorial on how to use this:
Do you really need to mount it? Why is using the archive manager (Linux/gnome) not sufficient? If you're going to need it frequently then it seems (to me at least) that you might be better off just unbzing and mounting it normally.
You might try using an OS that allows compression of entire file systems if the simpler options aren't sufficient. For example FreeBSD with the ZFS file system is one possibility.

We have made a Morning Camp at the Santa Ynez Airport. There was a light rain earlier. Now the sky is overcast, but giving signs of clearing.
1PM - Lake Cachuma.
We have traveled into the coastal mountains, and made an Afternoon Camp at a viewpoint of Lake Cachuma.
This has been a challenging day for Mr. Sunny. It is already into the afternoon, and Mr. Sunny's battery bank is not fully charged. We may have to rely on the little Honda generator.
4PM - Uncle Seymour and Aunt Shirley.
The weather was getting colder and a bit rainy. So, we decided to phone up Uncle Seymour and Aunt Shirley and ask if it would be OK to visit them a day early. "Come on over!", said Uncle Seymour.
MsTioga is now Camped in their backyard. We are plugged into their electricity, and Mr. Datastorm is online! Wow!
Shirley and Seymour have a date tonite, and before they left Aunt Shirley gave me a bowl of homemade soup! Yummmmm!

A lovely account do a day in Rome by a "Triathlon Widow" on an Acttivo Training Holiday with her husband
With only a day to see The Eternal City and being Easter the Vatican was out but that didn't deter Lisa, my companion from Acttivo Triathlon Holidays, from taking me St Peter's Square to see what was going on.
Having been on the Metro during a power cut we decided to walk. It's a fair old trudge from San Giovanni to the Vatican but what a walk it is. We went past Circus Maximus, where the chariot racing used to be held, and then behind it the ruins on Palatine Hill. We walked at least a mile along the banks of the river Tiber before the heavens opened.
Fortunately we were just passing a little wine bar & restaurant called Devine Peccato (near to Trastevere). We were made to feel very welcome as we burst through the doors a little damp around the…

New Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi, who returned from New York overnight after a medical check-up, was at Rashtrapati Bhavan well on time Thursday to attend the award of the Indira Gandhi Prize for Peace, Disarmament and Development on Nobel Prize-winning Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
Gandhi, who looked tired, was the first dignitary to arrive and take her seat on the podium at the historic Durbar Hall. She spent some uncomfortable moments as she sat alone on the dais, facing a large invited audience, before Vice President Hamid Ansari came five minutes later.
Ansari was followed by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, President Sirleaf and finally President Pranab Mukherjee.
Wearing a rust-and-green sari, Gandhi was accompanied by son Rahul Gandhi, who sat with the audience in the front row along with Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar and some cabinet ministers, including Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma, Food and Consumer Affairs Minister K.V. Thomas and Social Justice and Empowerment Minister Kumari Selja.
Sonia Gandhi, in her capacity as chairperson of the Indira Gandhi Memorial Trust, praised the Liberian president as an "exceptionally remarkable woman who has touched and changed millions of lives" and who was being honoured in the name of "one of India`s most remarkable women", her mother-in-law, former prime minister Indira Gandhi.

Panthers MVP Newton out after getting concussed
ATLANTA — Panthers quarterback Cam Newton suffered a concussion in Sunday's 48-33 loss to the Falcons, the team announced.
Newton was taken to the locker room to be checked after he took a big shot by Atlanta linebacker Deion Jones on a successful two-point conversion try in the fourth quarter.
Newton did something he said last season he would never do again — he slowed before reaching the goal line. That gave Jones a free shot at Newton, who bounced a yard or two back from the helmet-to-helmet hit, maintained his balance and reached the ball across the goal line to cut the Panthers' deficit to 34-18.
Derek Anderson replaced Newton on the next offensive series.
The Panthers' medical staff is under review by the NFL and NFL Players Association for its handling of Newton following a huge collision on a late drive in Week 1 at Denver. In that one, Newton was allowed to remain in the game despite staying on the ground for about 30 seconds after Broncos safety Darian Stewart drilled him.
Scuffle before Bills-Patriots
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Several punches were thrown when a shoving match erupted between Bills and Patriots players near the sideline about an hour before their game Sunday.
The altercation appeared to begin when Patriots starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett was jogging along the field and was shoved by Bills safety Robert Blanton. Brissett didn't stop, and New England rookie receiver Malcolm Mitchell retaliated by shoving Blanton.
Blanton responded by punching Mitchell in the chest and head-butting him, which led to several other players and assistant coaches getting involved. Bills safety Aaron Williams shoved a Patriots assistant coach attempting to separate the players.
As the scuffles began to dissipate, Buffalo cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman landed a punch on Mitchell's facemask.
Jets' ship sinking?: Wide receiver Brandon Marshall was downright frustrated — by another tough loss and increasing questions about his struggling quarterback.
Ryan Fitzpatrick threw three more interceptions, giving him nine in two games, in New York's loss to Seattle.
"I am shocked," a dejected Marshall said. "I expect more out of our offense."
Marshall, however, insisted that his confidence in Fitzpatrick has not wavered, even with the Jets 1-3 and staring at the season possibly spiraling with road games up next against Pittsburgh and Arizona, and he seemed to grow tired of questions about the quarterback.
"I am. Going down. In a boat. With Ryan Fitzpatrick. Okay? You got it?" said Marshall, measuring his words. "So can you not ask me any more questions about that? I am. Going down. In a boat. With No. 14."
Palmer down: Arizona lost quarterback Carson Palmer early in the fourth quarter against Los Angeles. Palmer was injured when his head slammed the turf on a sack by Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald. He originally was evaluated for concussion symptoms by trainers on the sideline, then taken to the locker room, not to return.
Injuries: Washington's top pass rusher, Ryan Kerrigan, left in the second quarter with an elbow injury, fellow linebacker Su'a Cravens left in the third quarter with a concussion and safety David Bruton left in the fourth with a concussion. The Ravens lost cornerback Maurice Canady in the first quarter with a thigh injury. Jets and former Bucs cornerback Darrelle Revis sustained a thigh injury in the fourth quarter and right guard Brian Winters left in the second with a head injury after he slammed helmets with a Seahawks defender. Winters was also called for unnecessary roughness on the play.
Number of the day
12,293 Career rushing yards for Frank Gore of the Colts. He had 68 Sunday, passing Marcus Allen (12,243 yards) and two former Colts, Edgerrin James (12,246) and Marshall Faulk (12,279) to move into 10th in NFL history.

Ableton + Processing for real-time audio visualization (Part 1)
I've often felt underwhelmed by abstract or generic VJ material that borrows nothing from the music it supports and lends nothing back. It's for this reason that I've worked over the last few years on a series of projects that create a tighter link between my music and the visuals that the audience experience.
As an example, see:
More Buttons No Problems – live @ gallery 263 from makingthenoise on Vimeo.
However, in many of these projects I've swung too far in the other direction in that the visuals are so hand-crafted for a specific set or song that they can't be re-used as my audio set evolves. What I've longed for is a suite of modular visualization elements that plug-and-play with my live set in Ableton. I want something that's generic enough to remain functional as my songs change over time, but tightly coupled to the music enough to demonstrate to the audience that the visuals are aware of the current state of the music.

The Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery at The University of Western Australia will be opening three new exciting exhibitions on Saturday 11 February 2017.
Helen Britton: Interstices (runs until Saturday 15 April 2017) is an exhibition showcasing 25 years of work from renowned Australian artist and one of the world's leading contemporary jewellers Helen Britton. Presented as part of the Perth International Arts Festival, the exhibition includes new works that draw inspiration from Western Australia's coastline. Born in Australia and now residing in Munich, Britton has developed an international reputation for her innovative practice as a contemporary artist working in the fields of jewellery, drawing and installation.
The Likeness (runs until Saturday 1 July 2017) is a dynamic showcase of more than 100 years of Australian portraiture from the UWA's Cruthers Collection of Women's Art. Over the 50 years of collecting that form the basis of the nation's only public collection of work by Australian women, the Cruthers family developed a particular interest in self-portraiture and portraiture. Attracted by the way these genres expressed aspects of an artist's biography and identity, the family collected more than 100 portraits across a range of styles and disciplines, from representational studies to more conceptually challenging investigations of identity.
Works of Art from Warburton (runs until Tuesday 18 July 2017) is an exhibition from the Berndt Museum and Warburton Arts Project that brings to Perth a selection of works from the community's own collection. Warburton is a remote Aboriginal community south of the Gibson Desert, in the centre of Ngaanyatjarra lands. It is a community with a reputation for producing outstanding works of art over several decades. Exhibited for the first time in many years, these works highlight how important the visual arts are to the Warburton community.
UWA Chief Cultural Officer, Professor Ted Snell said the University was pleased to present three new and exciting exhibitions, all of which are free to the public.
"From artworks responding to local coastlines, to exploring Aboriginal culture, to challenging concepts of female identity, together these exhibitions offer a diverse and fascinating insight into how we see ourselves, how we relate to our environment and how we are perceived by others," Professor Snell said.

On December 08, 2014, US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) issued draft guidance for industry entitled "General Clinical Pharmacology Considerations for Pediatric Studies for Drugs and Biological Products." This guidance provides recommendations to sponsors on how to conduct pediatrics studies for new drugs and biologics.
This draft guidance details particularly the clinical pharmacology information (e.g. exposure-response, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics) needed to support findings of effectiveness and safety while helpings identify appropriate doses in pediatric populations. In addition, the guidance recommends the phamacometrics approach from relevant prior clinical studies to design and evaluate future pediatrics studies.
This draft guidance does not recommend on:
1) Standards for approval of drugs and biological products in the pediatric population,
2) Criteria to allow a determination that the course of a disease and the effects of a drug or a biologic are the same in adults and pediatric populations, or
3) Clinical pharmacology studies for vaccine therapy, blood products, or other products not regulated by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research

We've been tagged
So, since this is The Santos Times, I thought our family would do this tag together. In this way, we hopefully won't bore you to death and you can get to know us a bit better. Also, if no one reads this list, then the five of us can look back and reminisce.

3. I cut my own hair.
4. I would rather be hot than cold.
5. I pretend I am organized, but I'm not.
6. Good manners are very important to me. I think it is a simple way to love our neighbor.
(If this list didn't kill you, you might be interested in this tag or this game.)
Mr. Santos: (written by the family)
1. Does not like bread - prefers tortillas.

Mrs. Santos,ReplyDelete
"My favorite hobby is pulling out Sophia's hair?" LOL! Your "little man" is funny. Your children have some interesting comments. I like Sophia's wanting to go to Italy, and Naomi's, "Noah is my best buddy." :)
Anyway, thanks for sharing this list. I actually read the entire thing. :)
-Lady Rose
Oh, that was so much fun to read! I would love to "sit on a cloud", too! :)ReplyDelete
Love you,
- Anonymous08 November, 2010 19:19
This was *really fun* to read! I had to laugh at your son's favorite hobby of pulling out his sister's hair. (o;ReplyDelete
Thank you ladies for all your kind comments. It's good to know we didn't bore you. Jan, Sophia is delighted to know that someone all the way in Australia plays the same game as she does.ReplyDelete
I enjoyed reading this post. I'm happy to know more about your beautiful family, Laura. Maybe your slowest runner is the fastest compared to those children (like mine) who never had the blessing to run freely in a beautiful field you have ;-)ReplyDelete
God bless your family!
Only 5?? I was very interested in reading more! Love you!ReplyDelete
WONDERFUL! Thank you for playing Laura...even when you really don't like making lists about yourself!ReplyDelete
Please tell us:
How to make a Salvadorean dish of some sort!
And also...what is "Kimbucha"? I think I spelled it wrong already! LOL
Your family is a true blessing and delight to us!
I hope Mr. Santos knows that you can watch National Geographic videos FREE online!
Hi Judy~ The Salvadorean food Sophia likes is pupusas. They are thick corn tortillas that are stuffed with meat and cheese and eaten with a spicy cabbage mixture.ReplyDelete
Very yummy, simple and filling.
Kombucha is a fermented tea drink flavored with fruit juice. Good for digestion and getting probiotics in the system. Tastes a little like vinegar. (LOL, I'm imagining your facial expression)
I'll let Mr. Santos know about the National Geographic...or maybe not. That will mean we ALL have to watch it and sometimes it's all I can take to sit before ANOTHER documentary (lol)
Sarah, you're so cute. I want to see YOUR list!
I doubt we would be bored by number 8!!! You sound a very interesting and lovely lady.ReplyDelete
I wish I could cut my own hair, I do my fringe but it always ends up all over the place, maybe becuase it is curly!!
Your childrens lists are lovely - what a great idea.
Thank you for visiting the Times and sharing your thoughts. We love visitors and hope that you have enjoyed your time with us.

When you're only starting your adventure with online casinos, you might not have enough knowledge to pick from the long list of games. There are many factors that can influence your decision, and without considering them your experiences are not going to be that great.
Every game has a risk to reward ratio. There are games that offer different bets with different ratios. For example in roulette the evens bet comes with a low risk, but also low reward, while the straight-up bet comes with a higher reward and proportionately higher risk. Slots work similarly, with high-volatility games that offer huge jackpots, as well as smaller jackpots in low-volatility games.
Your level of skill and willingness to learn is another factor. Video poker or blackjack require a lot of learning and practice, while roulette or slots don't need any special strategies. Skill-based games will offer potentially higher payouts than luck-based games. In the end it comes down to what type of gaming you enjoy the most.
You also need to choose between the atmosphere of a classic casino versus a modern one. If you prefer the former, table games or video poker will be for you. If the latter is your thing, you can pick video slots, scratch cards or parlor games. Both kinds of games can be equally enjoyable, but it comes down to individual preferences.

This morning's key headlines from GenerationalDynamics.com
- Tens of thousands of Syrian refugees pour into neighboring countries
- Vitriolic U.N. meeting continues with 30-day extension of Kofi Annan plan
- Spain's euro crisis continues to worsen, even as bailout is approved
- Anti-austerity riots turn violent across Spain

Tens of thousands of Syrian refugees pour into neighboring countries

Wednesday's bombing in Damascus, Syria, has triggered a massiverefugee crisis in neighboring countries, as tens of thousands ofcivilians flee to Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Turkey. As many as 30,000have poured into Lebanon in the last two days alone, increasingsectarian animosity. Lebanon is wary of setting up refugee camps,since the "temporary" Palestinian refugee camps that they set updecades ago have turned into permanent slums. Turkey is alreadyhousing some 40,000 Syrian refugees in tent camps, but now thousandsmore are continuing to cross the border seeking safety. Armenia isalso seeing an influx of ethnic Armenians who have lived in Syria forgenerations, but are now fleeing. BBC andIrish Times
Back in 2003, when I was first developing Generational Dynamicsas a theory, I met with Professor Peter Turchin of University ofConnecticut, who has done a great deal of work on PopulationDynamics which is highly relevant to generational theory.Most academics that I've approached have simply blown me off,but Professor Turchin was kind enough not only to meet with mebut even to listen to me and critique Generational Dynamics.
Professor Turchin rejected generational theory, and gave me thefollowing counterexample: There was an extremely bloody crisis wararound Rome in the decades of the 80s BC. Professor Turchin produceda study of "buried Roman coin hoards" during various time periods.People tend to bury their gold coins for safety during times of war,often they're forgotten until they're discovered by archaeologistsyears later. By looking at the dates stamped on the coins, it'spossible to estimate when they were buried. The study showed thatthere were huge findings of coin hoards from the 80s BC war, and thenagain the 40s BC. This showed that the 80-year cycle was violated.
At that time, I didn't have an answer for him, since I was justgetting started, but the solution became apparent later. During the40s BC decade, there was great fear of a civil war, especially whenJulius Caesar "crossed the Rubicon" in 49 BC, and then again whenCaesar was assassinated in 44 BC. There was great FEAR of a civilwar, so people buried their gold coins, but there was no ACTUAL civilwar that lasted more than a brief period.
I believe that something similar is happening in Syria today. Therewas an extremely bloody civil war that climaxed in 1982 with hugebloody massacres across Syria, and people living today remember that.They FEAR that there's going to be a repeat, and so they're fleeingacross the borders in great numbers. In actual fact, there's fightingin Damascus, but there's little fighting across the country, as far asI can tell, so the fear is unfounded. And, in fact, a crisis civilwar is impossible during a generational Awakening era.
Vitriolic U.N. meeting continues with 30-day extension of Kofi Annan plan
The bitter shouting that occurred in the United Nations SecurityCouncil on Thursday, when Russia and China vetoed a Western resolutionthat would call for sanctions if Syria did not pull its heavy weaponsout of civilian neighborhoods echoed on Friday. The U.S. and Europehad threatened to refuse to renew the 300 man U.N. observer mission inSyria that was part of Kofi Annan's peace plan, on the grounds thatthey couldn't do anything anyway since it was too dangerous for themto venture from their barracks. Russia called that threat "blackmail"last week, so there was a sort of compromise on Friday. The observermission would be extended, but only for another 30 days, to give ittime to wind down for an "orderly withdrawal." Russia and China wantto continue the observer mission, known as UNSMIS, indefinitely.Al-Jazeera
Spain's euro crisis continues to worsen, even as bailout is approved
Spain 10-Year bond yields at 7.27% on 20-Jul-2012
The EuroGroup of euro area finance chiefs agreed to a bailout of 100billion euros ($122 billion) for Spain's banks on Friday, but that had noapparent effect whatsoever on the Spain's problems, which are rapidlyshooting up into full-fledged crisis levels. The yields (interestrates) on Spain's ten-year bonds jumped to a historic high of 7.27%,indicating that investors are betting that Spain's government is goingto default. The adjoining graph shows an inexorable climb in bondyields that is very similar to what happened to Greece, at the timethat European officials were saying that everything is OK and Greecehad no problems. As we've said many times, there is NO SOLUTION tothe euro crisis, and to Spain's crisis in particular. Investors werenot impressed by Friday's huge bailout agreement with Spain because,at the same time, Spain's Valencia region said that it would need an18 billion euro ($22.1 billion) bailout. Reuters
Anti-austerity riots turn violent across Spain
It looks like it's going to be a long, hot summer in Spain. Policefired rubber bullets to disperse crowds in cities across Spain, withmore than 100,000 attending a rally in Madrid's main Puerta del Solsquare. With Spain's unemployment rate at 25% Treasury MinisterCristobal Montoro said that "there is no money" to pay civil servantwages. He added, "It is time to call a spade a spade. Financingpublic services with more deficit and more debt will doom us."Telegraph (London)
China to deploy a military garrison in South China Sea

Windows 7
connection by the system process and killed process
I have a few apps running, incl. Firefox, Outlook. I took down their PID and then exit those programs.
I run the following command:
netstat -a -o -b -p tcp
It will list many connections like below
TCP 192.168.83.2:57471 xx.xx.xx.xx:http ESTABLISHED 4184 [System]
TCP 192.168.83.2:57324 xx.xx.xx.xx:http ESTABLISHED 1245 [System]
The PID 4184 is the PID of Firefox. Yet it exited and no longer shows up in Task Manager. This remains true even after 30 min.
How long does Windows 7 keep the half-open the connection? I thought the timeout is 5 min.
The other group of PID never existed before and does not show up in TaskManager either. Since it shows System, I have no way to find out which process it belongs to. How can I find out?

Traditionally, segmenting audiences is a way to understand current behavior to predict future actions. Today, marketers are digging deeper than ever into the personas created through basic demographic differences. That's why "mindset segmentation" has become a useful process.

Four Tips for a Social Media Takeover
Social Media Takeover: the term has been around for several years now, and proven its worth more than once. Put simply, you empower your most loyal followers by giving them "publishing" rights for a limited time on selected social platforms.
Universities are great fits for the takeover strategy, especially when a true sense of community is nurtured with students. Some may wonder, "Is it any different from having students manage the university's account?" Not entirely, but takeovers allow these influencers to reflect their own identities in an authentic way through your platforms.

5 Things Every College-bound Student Must Do – Before the End of their Junior Year Of H.S.
"Timing is everything"
I like this quote. And while I don't think "timing" is truly "everything," it does mean a heck of a lot when it comes to relationships, school, business, and life in general.
And college planning is no different. Timing is critical.
You can do everything right in the college planning process but if your timing is off, you're not going to get the results you want. In fact, it can cost you big-time.
That's why this report is so important. Your child's Junior year is one of the most important (if not the most critical) year in the entire process. And getting the right things done at exactly the right time is a challenge every family is faced with in the pre-college process.
You will notice on this list, that some of the things need to be completed by you, the parent. And some will obviously need to be done by your child. I've always said that the college planning process is a team effort. And teams work best when everyone does their part. Let this report be your family's guide throughout the Junior year of high school.
With that said, here are the "5 Things You Must Do Before Your Junior Year Ends"….
1. Start narrowing down a list of careers and majors.
One of the absolute best ways to accomplish this task is to have your child get a part-time job, apprenticeship, or internship; or job shadow in a profession that interests them. Getting some real world experience or at least an up-close look at what a profession does on a daily basis is better than counseling alone can provide.
Don't get me wrong, career counseling can certainly help significantly and it should be a part of every parent's overall college plan, but it shouldn't be the only help a child relies on in narrowing down a list of careers and majors.
2. List, compare, and visit colleges.
In choosing a college, there are several factors that should be considered. Listed for you here are the 4 main factors that should be used to determine the right college followed by several other smaller factors that can be taken into consideration when selecting a college.
1. Academics
- What are the majors offered?
- What percentage of graduates of that major get jobs and/or go onto graduate studies?
2. Admission Requirements
- What are the average test scores, GPA, class rank?
- What tests are required?
- Are there any special requirements?
3. Financial aid
- What percentage of aid does each school meet?
- What percentage of aid is in loans or work study programs?
- What percentage of aid is in truly 'gift' aid?
- The new Net Price Calculator's (NPC's) that every college will be required to have, as of October 29th, 2011 should help with determining what kind of financial aid help a school can provide. But since these calculator's are so new, I would still seek additional verification on the numbers that you are given.
4. Expenses
- What is the estimated cost of attendance? (including tuition, room and board, meal plans, lab fees, miscellaneous expenses, average travel costs, etc…)
Once these main questions are answered, your list of colleges can be even further narrowed by including these other factors:
- Location (how far from home),
- Environment (urban or rural, religious affiliation),
- Size (enrollment),
- Housing (types and sizes), and
- Activities (clubs, Greek system, athletics, intramurals)
Once you've narrowed your list using this criteria, schedule a visit. There is no better way to get a feel for what a school is like, than by getting a campus tour. I think it's even better to do the tour (if possible) while school is in session… so that you can really experience what day-to-day life is like at the college.
3. Register, Study, and Take the SAT or ACT.
Many colleges require (or at least recommend) that students submit test results as part of the admission application process. The ACT and the SAT are the two main national tests.
Step one is to register for one of the available test dates in the spring of the junior year. Both the ACT and SAT can easily be registered for online.
Test Preparation Tips:
- Take a solid academic schedule throughout the Junior year.
- Becoming familiar with the test.
- Review sample test questions.
- Practice, practice, practice.
4. Research and implement all applicable financial aid planning strategies
December 31st of the Junior year is a very important date in the college planning process. The year before college is considered the "base planning year" for financial aid purposes. Everything (financially speaking) that happens that year will be counted in the financial aid formulas. Therefore, if you want to maximize any asset or income planning strategies, you should ideally have them done prior to January 1st of the Junior year.
Before you jump to conclusions about whether you will qualify for aid or not, keep this 'myth' in mind: Most middle and upper-middle class parents assume they won't be eligible for any form of financial aid because they own a home and make over $75,000 per year.
The reality is that many families with low six-figure incomes are eligible for some form of financial aid. There is over 150 billion dollars available each year from the Federal Government, states, colleges, universities, as well as private foundations and organizations. You just have to know how to get your "fair share".
Unfortunately, most parents give up before they even start and assume they won't be eligible. This is exactly what the colleges hope you'll do so they can keep more of these funds in their coffers. Don't make this mistake. No matter how much money you make, you still should apply; you'll probably be eligible for something. And even if you're not currently eligible, sometimes unforeseen things arise in our lives that affect our current income (job loss, medical expenses, etc…) Having financial aid forms on file will expedite the process if an appeal or special circumstances letter is needed.
5. Finalize and monitor your "college funding" plan.
If you're not already aware, there is going to be a sizeable bill coming for college, even if your child gets a great financial aid package, or numerous scholarship awards. Plan accordingly.
One of the biggest mistakes parents make is waiting. Waiting to start saving for college. Waiting to start planning for how and where to get loans for college. Waiting to go after financial aid.
"The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now." — African Proverb
The best time to start all of this is when your child is born. Chances are, since you're reading this report, that is no longer an option.
Don't wait any longer. Get started now. Take a look at your current situation, see if there are strategies you can implement to reorganize cash flow or increase your eligibility for need-based or merit-based financial aid. Get that proper college funding game plan in place. You do not want to 'wing it' and soon find out that you put yourself in a situation where your college loan payments are triple what your mortgage payments are!
The bottom line is this…be proactive. Don't be passive in the college process. A little bit of planning ahead makes an ENORMOUS difference. As T.Boone Pickens once said, "A fool with a plan is better then a genius with none".
To your successful college admissions,

Liquids are your best friend
Cold and flu bugs thrive in dried-out throats and nasal passages, but drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day can help keep your mucous membranes moist so they're better able to trap viruses. Then you can either blow them out your nose or swallow them so they're destroyed by your stomach acids before they have a chance to make you sick. Not only can this help prevent cold and flu symptoms, but it's just as useful if you're already sick.
