Now that you have taken the time to find your 'why', track your spending, and have listed your financial goals, you are ready to understand a bit more about why budgeting is so important. Why is having a budget going to help you achieve your goals? Why is knowing where and when your spending is happening, going to help achieve improved financial wellness? Maybe the answers to these questions are obvious to you, or maybe they are not.
Some people think of a budget as restrictive. However, I like to compare budgeting to traffic rules. If there were no lanes to stay in, no red lights or stop lights, no speed limits, would we ever arrive at our destination safely? It would be a pretty scary experience to go out on the roads! Budgeting is similar to following traffic rules. If we follow the rules, we are going to (more than likely) arrive at our destination. Waiting at a red light may be annoying, but it is the way to stay safe at the intersection. Similarly, budgeting, changing our spending habits, and making changes can be painful and inconvenient, but these will help us to stay financially 'safe' and get where we want to go. A little bit of discomfort or pain now in developing and learning to live by a budget will help us prevent much more pain later on.
Should we avoid pain?
It was time for my baby's six month checkup appointment and routine vaccinations. Two of my older girls got to come along to the appointment as well. When it was time for shots, my older girls became concerned and asked me why the baby had to get shots. They love their baby sister and get upset if she ever cries or is in pain. They didn't want her to get hurt by the shots. I explained to them that the vaccines will help prevent some very serious diseases that can be very painful, and very scary and life threatening. A little bit of pain now to prevent a lot of pain later.
This made me think about personal finance. We need to be willing to go through a little bit of pain now, to avoid big pain later. For example, living on a tighter budget, avoiding debt, driving the old car another year or two, doing a staycation instead of going to Hawaii, resisting the urge to pull that credit card out or apply for that loan, or spending the money that is supposed to go to savings. These choices we make now will prevent a future of more painful consequences like being overextended, house poor, foreclosure or even bankruptcy, or having no buffer or emergency fund or savings when an emergency occurs. By being a bit uncomfortable now, we will reap the rewards in the future. That may be the distant future, or maybe a future that isn't so far.
Small discomfort now vs. big discomfort later
Being able to learn self-discipline, when it comes to personal finance, is a valuable skill to learn early in life. I like to give my kids an allowance, to allow them to make money choices when they are young, when the consequences are small. Then, when the big choices come, and the big temptations are available, hopefully they can remember lessons learned in their past, and make better decisions.
One example of this scenario is student loans. Student loans are very easy to get, very easy to justify (it's for education and education is a good thing!), quickly add up and then become difficult to pay off. What took a few months or short years to acquire can take a lifetime to pay off. However, choosing the smaller discomfort now of working while attending school, applying for grants and scholarships, attending a less expensive school or community college, will help you avoid the much greater discomfort later of paying back those large student loans, laden with interest!
Naturally, we move away from things that are uncomfortable and gravitate to things that seem desirable. No doubt that is one of the reasons why credit cards have become so popular. It is uncomfortable to say no to something that we really want. It is pleasurable to indulge right now and not have to wait for the things you think you want. However, avoiding the small prick of pain now (waiting until you have the money to pay for the purchase), can set you up for much greater future pain (large credit card balance and payments, and enormous amounts of interest, for example).
Love yourself enough to allow discomfort
As I tried to explain to my kids, the shots do hurt right now, but that they will spare their baby sister much more pain later, they began to understand. And, because I love her, I will allow her to go through this small pain now, to be sure that her future is much less painful.
I realized that I need to love my future self enough to endure some small 'pain' now which will help me avoid much greater pain in the future.
It's better to want than to owe!
There is a phrase I like to tell myself every time there is something that I want, but can't pay for (and I'm tempted to pull the credit card out). It comes from a blog post by Natalie Bacon, on her blog, The Finance Girl. She said "It's better to want than to owe." (Her great blog post can be found here: http://www.thefinancegirl.com/how-to-create-financial-margin/)
Indeed! I have been on both sides of the want or owe coin. It really is better to want than to owe. Wanting is much less painful than owing!
Take a look at your financial habits. Is there anything you are doing now that is helping you avoid 'pain' or discomfort now, but that will cause future discomfort? What can you do to change these habits? Pick ONE to work on. Decide how you can change the behavior now to have a better outcome in the future. (For example, pack a lunch to work one extra day a week, and put the money you would have spent on lunch into a savings account, or towards a debt, instead).

Response to Sorry, Guy: Math Can't Get You A Girlfriend:
OK first of all, if he's a mathematician, what else is he going to date as? Secondly, the very existence of dating websites sort of proves the known fact that the age-old puzzle of picking up women has been compounded in our yes-we-both-are-here-but-could-you-write-me-an-email-first world. Thirdly, the so-called nerdy guys wouldn't go to such websites to meet women if there were no women on it. Algorithms cannot find your soul-mate, true, but if so-called creep bots are able to increase a guy's chances of at least *meeting* a woman, I'd say that's a pretty darned unfair label for the poor bot. Not to mention the guy.

Mrs. Bolourchi, a retired nurse born in Tehran and educated in England, moved to the United States with her daughters in 1979, right after the Islamic revolution. Her husband, Akbar Bolourchi, followed two years later, moving his internal medicine practice to Beverly Hills from Tehran. The two met when she was head nurse at Women's Hospital in Tehran and he was a practicing physician there. Besides being an accomplished nurse, she spoke six languages: Turkish, English, French, Italian, Arabic and Farsi.
Touri Bolourchi boarded the flight in Boston after a two-week visit with a daughter, Roya Turan, and two grandsons. "She said, 'I'll see you when you come to L.A,' " Turan said. "She had that beautiful expression on her face, with her beautiful smile." She hadn't flown to Boston for two years. "She was so afraid of airplanes," her husband said. Years ago, he explained, two of her cousins died in commercial airline crashes in Europe and Africa.
She is survived by her husband; her daughters, Neda Bolourchi and Roya Turan; and grandsons, Bobby Turan, 15, and Kayvon Turan, 10, of Boston.

After a pleasant vacation of two weeks last summer, I returned to work only to find that my 'catch-up' meeting was to let me know that my vacation had been extended somewhat. I was given a package of various papers, allowed to clear a few small things from my office, given a hug by the HR girl as I left the building, and that was that. Driving home a strange sense of contentment and relief settled over me.
Yes! I was free!
Don't get me wrong, I'd always enjoyed doing what I did. If you ignored the periods of poverty, family upheavals, cash-flow problems, more family upheavals, and the other periods of poverty, I can honestly say that I'd had a great time for most of the 40 years I'd spent in my little corner of the oil industry. But …
Yes!! I was free!!
The first couple of months were pretty much a true vacation. I consolidated my pension funds, 401k contributions, severance pay and money from a mortgage refinance that I'd luckily completed before being kicked, well … okay, hugged out of the door, and re-deposited them into a variety of funds that I could actually access if I needed the money in a hurry. My financial advisor gave me seven years to survive if I maintained the 24/7 vacation lifestyle. I reckoned that even I could get a job within seven years with no problem, so I considered myself in good shape. Better than a lot of people who had been cast out of their jobs with younger families, lots of debt, and not much to fall back on.
But, no sense hanging about for seven years and then having to fight for a 'greeter' job at Walmart. In the third month of the vacation, I created a 'DBA' type company for myself . But what was I going to be? What would be my title? The word 'liaison' was mentioned to me in conversation which seemed to fit well with the word 'consultant'. And since I had grown up in the surface logging business, that is why my LinkedIn profile now states that I am a 'Liaison Consultant – Surface Evaluation Strategy'. Back then it seemed to fit better than anything else.
One of the benefits that I was given by my pre-vacation employer was access to a company who helped tailor my resume and LinkedIn page. I used them and abused them quite a lot. My problem, or their problem, or our problem, was that I had remained in the same company for so long. My one paper qualification was a geology degree. All of the other positions I held were based on the knowledge and internal training I had picked up along the way. This proved problematic when trying to write about my relevant experience while at the same time trying to ignore any of that experience that was more than 10 years old (as they suggested I had to). It proved even more difficult trying to say that my geology degree qualified me for the positions I had held and might hold again if applied for.
"So, Mister Cave, you would like this marketing job would you?"
"Yes, yes I would please."
"And your degree is in … ?"
It just doesn't quite work. But the resume folk were very good and eventually we agreed on a format (providing I also said the right things) that might stand up to the harsh type of questioning indicated above.
I've been slowly altering it ever since.
It is currently February of 2017 and I am seven months into that extended vacation but I now consider myself to be very gainfully unemployed. Thanks to the years I've worked in the oilfield I do know a lot of people. I also know that if I was asked for information and didn't know the answer, nine times out of ten I would know who to ask. These last seven months has opened up another large group of contacts thanks to LinkedIn (I was never much of a fan, but I now appreciate what it can do for a gainfully unemployed person like myself). So, anyway, uh… I'm beginning to digress… that happens when you work at home and can nibble cheese, sip wine, and slowly work through your record collection at any time of day.
Alright… back on track.
I started writing this article to summarize my point of view in 'looking for a job.' To start with, I was fully into preparing a great resume (as mentioned above) and sending it off to all the right companies. Unfortunately, at the end of 2016, all the right companies were still reducing their workforce like crazy and others were just not hiring. Eventually, I gave up sending out my resume as a full-time thing. I only do it now if asked politely.
Moving away from resume sending, I read about so-called 'pain letters' (you can Google the term). My interpretation of the 'pain letter' was to contact operators, tell them they had a problem (no geologic knowledge of their laterals and therefore poor returns), and offer to fix their problem by 'liaising' with other companies (mud-logging and geoscience) who would be willing to fix those problems. This approach did not pay off for me at the time, but I still think it is a good approach to follow. Obviously, LinkedIn provided much of the background information, followed up with internet searches of operators and their operational strategies.
While doing resumes and pain letters I also used LinkedIn to post stuff, like other people's stuff, and write comments. All of this helped build my network and helped me get to know more people. So far, in my gainful unemployment, this interaction has reaped the most rewards. No, I have not got myself a steady paying job, but I can now honestly say that I am a liaison-consulting-marketing-and-sales-representative for a handful of very interesting companies (all without a smidgen of conflict of interest between them), who will happily provide me with a commission when a contract is signed and sealed.
The bottom line is that I can happily stop complaining about non-replies to resume applications or 'pain letters'. I don't need to hunt for jobs that only marginally interest me or marginally fit the skills I've picked up over 40 years. I can even unsubscribe to the vast amount of spawned job-search emails that fill my inbox every morning. All I need to complain or worry about is that I, myself, have not worked hard enough to gain the commissions that will keep me from having to live under a bridge sometime in the semi-distant future.
I guess, to finish in a blaze of propaganda, if anyone is in need of the services of a great mud logging and geosteering company, or a world renowned geochemical company, or a manufacturer of sample catching devices, or a mud flow and kick detection equipment and software company, or… finally (for now)… a manufacturer of state of the art GC-IRMS (gas chromatograph isotope ratio mass spectrometry) equipment, PLEASE contact me!
And remember, connections do matter, especially if you are interested in a life of gainful unemployment.
P.S. I'm still willing to be gainfully employed too!

Tucson, Arizona
9yrs old heart broken and lonely
This story is about about a 9 year old girl who lost her mother the day before Christmas 12/24/14. At the time she was under the custody of her beloved father who recently passed away in 03/14 only 3 months after her mom passed. Paris is the child's name, which was living with her grandmother after the death of her father until today 4/10/14 she was taken from school by a CPS caseworker in Tucson,Az with accusations that the grandmother was not following caseworker rules. Which was Paris was not to be around any of her older siblings because they had arrest records. Mind you all the other siblings arrest records are either before they turned 18 and have been expunged or petty misdemeanors. Not to mention this child only have siblings as immediate family. I lost my grandmother 02/28/14 for me as a grown woman I still can't cope due to her being gone. So for Paris to have lost her mother and father at age 9 I can only sit and cry wondering how she must feel tonight. All alone in a foster agency because of a caseworker without a heart. I say this because if there was any reason other than the reason of her stating she can not be associated with the only family (siblings) that she has left what world do we live in? I was placed in a temp agency in Florida for just a few hrs due to my aunt disliking my mom version of a whooping. As an adult I stand by mom because I never been arrested or have a record. Though those few hrs in that temp agency was the scariest moments of my life. Let's just say you never forget moments like that. I wrote this story because Paris grandmother lost her daughter and now her grandchild. Not to forget Paris lost both her parents within months of each other deaths. If there is one person who hears this story that can help or change this situation. I beg of you send Paris back to her family! I'm not a family member but my grandson is Paris nephew he is only 1 at this time, they all have lost enough in this family. To continue to separate or displace this family only brings more heartache. Since Christmas this family have been in mourning and the struggle continues. Paris grandmother have suffered enough pain why is that anyone would put a family through this especially an elderly woman who may not have many yrs to come but until God say so she should be able to take care of her granddaughter as long as she willing and able. I was so mad and angry today I wanted to take justice in my own hands. Though God has a way of speaking to you and showing you a better way to handle evilness. Evilness is just what this is, so I ask you to share this story and if you who places this as a story for it to be known if you can get this family help and bring the happy back you have my email address. What would you want to happen if you or a family member loses birth parents and some random person steps in and snatched your family member away from everyone she knows! For some reason I received a text from a real close friend before all this was even brought to me the text read: To get where you want to be, you have to do something you never done! It I take that as to get something done you have to try almost anything! I trust that hopefully this caseworker get this message and look how she has made matters worst for all of us and find her heart wherever it is. Paris we all love you and we won't stop until you are back with us! For all families that have lost a love one rather it be death, drugs, or to adoption agencies or foster care put all faith in God to bring you out of your mourning, loneliness and pain faith is the substance of things hope for and the evidence of things not seen!

Who was Rosalind? Why was she retained in the court by the usurper in the play " As You Like It " by Shakespeare?The question is from the play " As You Like It " by Shakespeare.
- print Print
- list Cite
Rosalind is one of the major characters in "As You Like It." She is an intelligent, beautiful, and self-sufficient young women. She is the daughter of the deposed Duke who is now living in the Forest of Arden. She has been retained by the usurper because his own daughter Celia is so strongly attached to Rosalind that they are inseparable. The usurping Duke, however, decides to banish Rosalind because she has too strong an influence on Celia. Also, her presence may be too much of a reminder of his guilt. Celia decides to accompany Rosalind to the Forest of Arden in search of her father and his loyal followers. There Rosalind, who has disguised herself as a young man, meets the equally homeless Orlando and falls in love with him without letting him know she is really a female. Their love story is the most important element in the entire play. Rosalind's life becomes complicated when a peasant girl falls in love with her, thinking she is a young man. Since female roles were played by young men in Elizabethan theaters, Rosalind really is a young man pretending to be a young woman who is pretending to be a young man. This makes Rosalind a challenging and intriguing role.

PHOENIX (AP) - An Arizona Senate panel has gutted a bill that would have required schools to offer at least 50 minutes of recess for students in kindergarten through fifth grade.
Opposition from school districts concerned about added costs led to the changes to House Bill 2082. It now only mandates one unspecified block of recess per day for children attending charter schools or traditional schools.
Also removed was a provision that said students could not lose their unstructured recess time as punishment unless parents were notified in advance.
Supporters of the measure say the amended bill would not safeguard students' needed recess time.
The Senate Committee on Education voted 6-1 on Thursday to send the legislation to the full Senate. The House already passed it on a bipartisan 39-20 vote in February.

Flight Global – Testing is under way to demonstrate the heat exchanger technology crucial to a hybrid air- and liquid oxygen-breathing rocket motor that Oxford-based Reaction Engines believes will enable single-stage-to-orbit flight.
The Sabre engine is intended to power a reusable, runway take-off and landing unpiloted spaceplane called Skylon, which promises to put payloads of up to 12t into orbit – and as much as 6 tons to a high geostationary orbit – for 10% of the cost of a traditional rocket launch.
Reaction insists the heat exchanger works, but trials set to run to year-end are needed to demonstrate to waiting investors that the technology is viable. Then, the company says, its investors are ready to release £200 million ($325 million) for a 2012-14 project phase to build an engine demonstrator. If successful, a further £7.5 billion ($10 billion) should be forthcoming to develop the airframe for service from 2020, says the company.

Why I Hate My Tattoo
The most frequent request I get is to explain the origin of, and meaning behind, my tattoo. Well I do just that in this video, along with why I hate it and believe a majority of men who get tattoos today will probably end up regretting theirs.
Why the Name Change?
I've changed the name of the YouTube channel and my other social media accounts from Masculine Style to Tanner Guzy. In this video, I explain why.
My son is trying to kill me!
As I continue in my attempts to increase the reach of Masculine Style, I'm having fun experimenting with different mediums and methods.

"Forever" Mid-Century Homes of Steel and Concrete: Invisible, Forgotten Whittier Hugheston Meadows
Honeysuckle Lane. It sounds too good to be true, too mid-century-modern-suburban, like Desperate Housewives' Wisteria Lane or a David Lynch dream. But it did exist in the imagination of two Southern California brother developers, two famous MCM architects, and it still does exist today. And it promised a new kind of building that would never rot, catch fire, or succumb to earthquakes. A building like that could only go by one name: The Forever House.
1948: Development Begins
The United States was settling into the idea of peace and prosperity. Just three years prior–just the blink of an eye–Japanese delegates stood on the deck of the battleship USS Missouri and surrendered to General MacArthur. The war was now over. Time to get home and pick up on life again.
Southern California boomed in the post-war years. Still fueled by war industry money, the Los Angeles area prospered, and people needed places to live. Every morning, a reader of the Los Angeles Times or Herald-Examiner could sip coffee while viewing big quarter-page ads for new housing developments.
A new type of house was being built in Whittier, near Los Angeles. With design help from famed Southern California architects A. Quincy Jones and Frederick Emmons, two brothers who were partners in a building and development operation, the Hughes, began with a 100 acre sub-division of these miracle homes just off of the Santa Ana Freeway.
They would eventually be called The Forever House, and that one building material that had been the staple of homes for thousands of years would be curiously absent: wood.
1948-1952: Weaving Homes from Steel and Concrete
The Hughes' idea was that since pre-stressed concrete was already used to build many things–bridges, retaining walls–it could be used to build houses, too.
Engineers first created, from scratch, machines that would turn long, straight lengths of "pencil steel" into the diagonals that would then become the woven steel panels or mattresses that form the core of this building process.
These machines were transported to the site, so that the entire process would happen there–not in a factory.
After a panel had been created, they were hoisted into place, both walls and roofs, and plywood forms put in place and moistening. Then, much like the building of a swimming pool, an operator "shot" gunite, or shotcrete, against the plywood, amassing about two inches of gunite.
The operator would let that 2-inch layer dry before coming back to it and layer by layer filling in the entire woven steel lattice. After the panel was filled, it would be covered by a 1/8″ thick hand-applied finish layer.
1953: Selling Begins
In the spring of 1953, the ads went up for 136 homes that were "precision engineered of steel, aluminum, glass, & masonry." Because of this, they would be termite proof, fire proof, rot proof, earthquake proof, and just to make sure that all bases had been covered, "deterioration proof."
Another big selling point of the time was the nearby new $2,000,000 Clock Country Club and golf course.
Common to housing ads of the time, World War II vets could put down a smaller down payment ($450) than non-vets ($2,500).
Curiously enough (and perhaps wisely so), not much else was made of Hugheston Meadows' radically different building process. A May 1953 article in the Los Angeles Times only says that the homes had recently received an award from the National Association of Home Builders.
By May, sales agent James B. Hickey reported that Hugheston Meadows was already 50% sold out.
Hugheston Meadows' history is largely forgotten, literally off the map when the City of Whittier lists its four historic districts.
Many of Hugheston Meadows' homes still exist and can be viewed by driving down Honeysuckle, Starlight, Sunnybrook, Breckinridge, or Viburnum Lanes in that circle of homes bound by the golf course.
The country club is now called Candlewood Country Club.
Interestingly enough, the Honolulu Advertiser, October 1952, relayed a story from The Daily People's World, a Communist newspaper, that future U.S. President Richard Nixon (then a senator) lived in Hugheston Meadows, "a subdivision where Negroes and other non-Caucasians are barred from owning and renting."

Hello, I have just reached my one year post treatment for nasophyarengeal carcinoma on September 3rd.I have had two favorable MRI,s with no disease found.Last week I had my third MRI which showed an enlarged lymph node in my neck.I was fighting a nasty headcold at the time.My oncologist has reasured my that it is probally due to my cold but has ordered a PET|CT scan which I would be due to take soon anyway.Has anything like this happened to anyone else?It is hard not to panic when facing more tests.I would welcome any positive feedback.Larla

Pam M,
Sep 25, 2010 - 5:26 pm
Really good. Kinda weird - realized this morning that tomorrow is the one year anniversary of my discovering my huge lymph node. I'm having a good deal of drainage going on (like last year at this time - must be seasonal). I ate at a barbecue restaurant today with no pain medication (except for the Gumbo - I'll have it tomorrow with meds). There are only a few things I can't eat; only a couple I can't taste. Truth be told, the things I can't eat or taste, I should avoid anyway (with the exception of some meats - and I have a hard timme with salad, of all things). I'm doing really well for six months out. How about you? Were you good at six months? Are you still recovering? wish you could've joined this site before or during your treatment - it's been an amazing help for me. Hoping for no surprises when you get your results - let us know.

I've never felt better physically in a really long time.I was really sick after my second round of cisplatin which I received during my radiation.I lost 60 pounds in two months even though I was using my peg tube throughout my treatment.My last radiation was September third and I did start feeling better by the end of September although I was still not eating anything.My husband called me the women who does not eat.We went away with our three children the last weekend in September to Ocean City Maryland and I promised my Aunt I would try to eat some seafood.I actually had crab soup and asparagus spears.After that I became more brave and started trying to eat more.I was still losing weight.I set a goal to have my peg tube out by Christmas which I thankfully achieved.I still have episodes of choking on food, two times I was scared beacause I could't breath so I have to be careful.I'm trying to get my head in the game of feeling healthy but I'm having a hard time when facing all the testing.I wish I could have joined this site then too but we just got a computer this August.That is great that you can eat spicy food and most meats.I did have problems with salad but now I love eating them.I do have trouble with most pork and I take the top piece of bread off all sandwiches and burgers.It sounds like your doing great.I hope I have no surprises to talk about either.Thanks

Hi Larla,
I actually ironically am about 10 months past my last rad, had 35 radiation, 3 chemos last treatment was December 17th last year, And just last Saturday I got a head and chest cold about 3 days into it, I noticed the lymph node on the same side as my cancerous one that was removed started to swell, I can feel it when I swallow. Really freaked me out because of the location, and the similarity in feelings as the first one felt. But the fact that we just started to feel it again whe we got sick is a lot easier to have it associated with something than just popping up outa no where like it did the first one. Give yourself a week or two to get over the sick and see if you notice it going down then. Dont get so hasty to get another CT or MRI. Those arent the greatest things to be getting on a regular basis either..... Just keep your eye out......

The SatinSoft plastic applicator helps to provide naturally comfortable protection that you don't have to think about. Just toss a few in your purse and you're good to go. For more information, please visit http://www.kotex.com.
I purchased Kotex Security Tampons in the US a few years ago.....always like to try something different. I am totally sold and stock up every time I venture to the US for a shopping trip! Comfortable, great price and offer superb protection. I have used regular, super and rely on super for the couple heavier days I have to suffer thru. If I have to have me period.....I have to have Kotex!
These are the only tampons that I ever use. They are comfortable,easy to use, and effective.
These are the BEST tampons! I started using the "Super" package, and they worked amazingly. They are the most comfortable tampon I have come across, and I have never had a leak problem. These are are probably the most inexpensive tampon on the shelf, but that doesn't reflect on the quality. They are the best!
I absolutely love these tampons. I used to only use the Tampax Pearl, but I would have discomfort when using them. I would feel like it was jabbing against me after I would apply it and I would kind of hurt to sit in certain positions. I was recently on vacation and started my period. I ran to the local Walmart and just grabbed the cheapest thing. I fell in love. They are so comfortable. I can barely tell when I have one in. They go in so smoothly. I love the wear and the application. I don't think I will ever buy a different tampon now.

Today I thought I share a tasty grilled red snapper recipe with you all, as part of my month of grilling (June). This Caribbean inspired grilled red snapper will cause your taste buds to go into a state of frenzy and confusion as they're hit with bite after bit of exciting Caribbean flavors. I grew up eating fish three ways when I was younger.. fried, curry and stewed, but the past few years have seen me adopt new and exciting ways to prepare seafood. In a few days I'll share another grilled fish recipe with you, but this time we'll do an accompanying sauce to go with it.
Special Thanks! I have to take a minute to thank everyone at Chelsea Brand out of Toronto for their generosity in sending me a huge supply of Red Snappers to use in my recipes. Please look for the Chelsea Brand when shopping for seafood at your local grocery store.
You'll Need…
1 Red Snapper (1-2 lbs)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 sprigs thyme
3 sprigs dill (optional)
2 slices lemon
1 scallion
1 pimento pepper (see note below)
1/2 scotch bonnet pepper
2 tablespoon coconut milk
banana leaves for wrapping the fish
Notes: Pimento pepper is a flavor pepper, without any heat and also known as seasoning or flavor pepper in the Caribbean. When using scotch bonnet peppers, use gloves and if you're concerned about the raw heat, avoid using the seeds. If you can't source banana leaves, use tin foil or parchment paper.
Scale, trim and wash your fish. The fish I was using was already cleaned and gutted, but still had some fins, so using my kitchen scissors I trimmed those off. I then washed the fish with some lime juice (use lemon or vinegar) and cool water (pat dry with paper towels). Then using a sharp knife I made shallow cuts every 1 inch or so (see pic).
I then chopped the scotch bonnet and pimento pepper (huge pieces). Using the back of my knife I tapped on the scallion to bruise it to release it's flavors and I sliced a couple slices of the lemon.
You'll need to have the bottom part (belly) of the fish cut open to have a sort of cavity to stuff all the wonderful seasonings. Fold the scallion and tuck in into the belly of the fish as well as the other items (thyme, dill, peppers).
Place the now stuffed fish on the banana leaves (see video below) and season with the black pepper and slat. Turn the fish over to get both sides and using your fingers, try to get some into the small cuts we made. Place the 2 slices of lemon on top of the fish, then pour the coconut milk over it.
Fold the banana leaves over the fish (try to tuck it in to secure) to form a sort of parcel (seal the ends as well). Now place on a hot grill (about 375F).. I used a grill with three burners, so the burner to the far left I left on high and the 2 burners directly below the fish I had on med/low). Close the lid of the BBQ and allow ti to cook for about 12-15 mins (depending on how thick your red snapper is). Then flip and let cook for the same amount of time of this side. If you find that your flame is burning off the banana leaf, turn the heat down to low.
It's normal for the banana leaves to go charred, so don't freak! Your grilled snapper is now read. Using a pair of scissors (be careful as there may be steam as you open) cut the parcel open and enjoy. You"l be hit with the lovely fragrance of the coconut milk and other good things we used in stuffing the fish. If your lemon slices are charred, you'll also get that lovely perfume of lemon oil. Remember this is a whole fish your eating, so be prepared for the bones.
I can't tell you how many requests I get for this grilled fish every summer. I urge you to try this one and share it with family and friends (blow them away with your skills).
Before you go, don't forget to check out the latest cooking videos, connect with me on twitter and join our community on facebook. oh yea! leave me a comment below – it's appreciated.
Thank you for the recipe, Chris. The fish was beautiful and delicious– I added a lot more salt to taste. Just a gorgeous presentation and flavor.
Hi Chris, I tried this yesterday. I didn't like how the fish turned out; it smelled and tasted too 'fishy'. What can I do to cut out that next time?

Mother in law even had me cooking food to bring to different fetes

How to lose weight by 5 kg per week
Diet Weight Loss / / August 12, 2017
How quickly lose weight by 5 kg
How to lose weight by 5 kg per week, without starving?Really easy, if not 5, but 3 kilos will drop for sure, if you just start to eat right.And as it - right?
Most of us just your wrong, unhealthy diets provokes weight and disease.For example, most high-calorie foods, favorite contact, increases the level of "bad" cholesterol in the blood.Which, in turn, provokes atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.Yes, these effects are more characteristic for older people (over 50 years), but also among young people are cases of heart attacks, unfortunately.People are dying for no apparent abnormalities in the age of 30 ... For this reason, take the information set out below, as can be serious, it is not only the answer to the question of how to lose weight by 5 kg per week at home, but will understand how to stayhealthy and beautiful for a long time.
So, from what products should be discarded entirely on diet and time to limit their use after.
1. Butter. Furthermore, it is very nutritious, still contains so much cholesterol, as well as any other source of animal fat.Yes, many of us can not imagine how you can do without butter.But it is not necessary to add it to cereal and mashed potatoes.In the second case it successfully replace milk medium or low fat (diet in the period).A toast (by the way, the cooking method should be cooked meals less often) should either vegetable or olive oil.
2. Eliminate the mayonnaise. high-calorie product rich in cholesterol and also because of the mayonnaise includes egg yolks - a source of cholesterol.
3. Sugar. product is not helpful.At least for the next week forget about it.Do not add sugar in drinks and do not drink soft drinks.
4. Salt - another enemy of health and ... figure.The fact is that the salt makes the food more delicious, appetizing for many people, and therefore to some extent contributes to overeating, but not to how to lose weight by 5 kg for 2 weeks or for a shorter period.
5. Fatty meats. This includes, by the way, and beef.It is best to eat during a diet chicken, and boiled or cooked in the oven.The most part of the diet of chicken - breast.Cook chicken, previously necessarily removing its skin.Keep in mind that the basis of human food - vegetable.So - no protein diets!
6. Cookies, candy, chocolate. All these sources of sugars and easily digestible carbohydrates, which are not only saved from famine, and then deposited us in the form of fat.
7. Do not eat the buns and bread. Many nutritionists recommend to drastically reduce the number of white bread in the diet, while the remaining is replaced by black.Another option is to replace it with bread.Firstly, they are very tasty.Secondly, known caloric 1 loaf - 13-14 kcal (written on the package, therefore easy to understand how much you can eat breads in the day).Third, bread rich in fiber.They help slow the absorption of carbohydrates, but quickly and quite a long time creates a feeling of satiety.
1. Vegetables. It is best to eat them raw - in the form of salads.Very simple and low-calorie salad made from shredded cabbage, carrots and green peas, seasoned with vegetable or olive oil.In winter, in the absence of fresh vegetables, you can buy frozen and prepare them if not so useful, but still low-calorie stew.
2. Fruits. They are very useful, low in calories, but are a source of fructose, and therefore are recommended for use only in the middle of the day.
3. Fish (except for containing a large number of shrimp cholesterol).Cook them for a couple, in the oven or cook.
4. Kashi as a carbohydrate source.You can cook them in milk diluted by half with water or just water.Oatmeal, buckwheat are the most popular among Russians, and very easy to prepare, not to mention their great benefits to health.
Here's how to lose weight by 5 kg per month is easy and painless.If you want to lose weight quickly, follow the rules stated below 3.
1. Eat 5 times a need day in an amount of not more than 200 grams at a time.Between the techniques of food 2.5-3 hours.Do not let the appearance of hunger.
2. More water. Train yourself to drink at least 1.5-2 liters of water per day.Water helps to fight against hunger and promotes the removal of harmful substances from the body.
3. Do not snack. There are 5 meals, no longer given.If you did not get to hold required 2.5-3 hours, the snack some small vegetables or fruits, you can drink a glass of sour milk or buttermilk.But no sandwiches and scones!
And most importantly, believe me - to lose weight by 5 kg per week is realistic.It is only necessary to seriously reconsider your diet, throwing out all the unnecessary and harmful.

Tuna Market Intelligence - Issue 26
Issue 26, November 2, 2015
Read PDF here or read more on this page.
The downward trend at the Bangkok Tuna market continues through this month.
With no light at the end of the tunnel yet, prices have slipped to US$1,150 per metric tonne compared to the US1.300 we reported in the last update.
Insiders report that, as a result, buyers deferring orders on a falling market, so importers have declined tuna imports at this end of the year bringing the volume to its lowest since 2010. From January to August this year tuna imports have dropped to 450,000 tonnes. With the PNA FAD closure open this will see a upsurge in landings further depressing prices
Meanwhile, in Ecuador, similar trends are being experienced except they still had a slightly higher price of US$1,200 per metric tonne towards the end of October.

Greenlight for small island nation Tuvalu
Tuvalu has been given the greenlight to export its newly built purse seine vessel Tautaloa from Taiwan to Tuvalu, bringing its fleet strength to two vessels.
A jubilant Tuvalu Minister for Natural Resources Elisala Pita said he had received the letter from the Secretary General of the Taiwan Fishery Agency informing him that they had approved an export permit for the Tautaloa.
Tautaloa was built in March 2012 by Taiwan's shipbuilding company Ching Fu but, due to its national laws on construction of new purse seine boats, stating that the equivalent tonnage of old purse seine boats needed to be scrapped, work on the boat and subsequent delivery to Tuvalu was stalled.
Tuvalu raised the issue in PNA, FFA, and WCPFC meetings, as well as negotiations with Taiwan, and had even called for reduction of fishing days to the distant water fishing nation as a result of its stalling of the new vessel.
Pita earlier said that Tuvalu intends to develop its domestic fishery by expanding its feet to fully participate in the harvest of its own tuna. He said Tuvalu gets high returns from its fishing vessel Taumoana, and a second fishing vessel will boosts these returns.
Tuvalu's government is also in the process of bargaining for the purchase of three more vessels from Tri Marine which would increase their fleet strength to five.
NFA pays State dividend
THE National Fisheries Authority (NFA) has paid the Government K50 million in dividend this month, in addition to the K25 million it paid in August.
NFAChairman Job Pomat and Managing Director John Kasu handed over theK50 million payment to Chief Secretary Sir ManasupeZurenuocinin early October.
Sir Manasupe said the NFA board's commitment to provide increasing dividends to the Government over the years contributed largely to the country's revenue cycle.
He said the authority was one of the few State-owned enterprises which continued to pay dividends to the State every year.
The previous 2 years, the authority paid a K55 million dividend compared to the K75m this year. The authority derives its revenue from tuna resources through fishing access fees from fishing partners including Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan and the Philippines.
However, Pomat said the main focus was to promote onshore processing of our tuna resources: "The benefits of onshore processing will be in the form of employment, tax returns and spin-off businesses, and linked to volumes processed.
Palau signs sanctuary law
Palau President Thomas Remengesau has this week signed the historic Palau National Marine Sanctuary Act.
He stressed that it is just the beginning of the journey to protect Palau's ocean from foreign fishing and strengthen its a domestic fishing zone.
The marine sanctuary means that in the 80 percent of Palau's maritime territory, no fishing or mining can take place. The remaining 20 percent of Palau's waters will become a domestic fishing zone reserved for local fishermen and small-scale commercial fisheries with limited exports.
Remengesau said the marine sanctuary aims to strengthen management and development initiatives to build a sustainable and lucrative domestic longline fishing fleet that will supply Palau consumer and tourist markets.
He said work is not done as Palau will be seeking partners to ensure effective enforcement of its reserve.
Seth Horstmeyer, The Pew Charitable Trusts Director of Global Ocean Legacy, which provided technical support on the sanctuary, said that the next step is to create a five year plan to ensure better enforcement in the Palau's EEZ.Under the new law, after five years, there will be strict rules against fishing vessels which enter Palau's waters.
EC report finds anomalies
A recent report by the European Commission's Court of Auditors on whether fishing partnerships were actually working found that tonnage negotiated was often higher than catches reported, particularly for Mozambique.
This leads to regular underuse. Because the EU pays in full regardless of the amount of fishing actually done, the real cost paid was frequently higher than the price negotiated. In Mozambique, the real cost per tonne of tuna in 2013 was about six times higher than the price which had been negotiated
The report recommended that the Commission should:
• consider previous levels of use when negotiating new arrangements and endeavour to link payments for access rights more closely to actual catches, while ensuring that fishing is not disrupted;
• ensure that the new catch database is fully used by flag Member States and provides reliable catch data which can be monitored and kept up to date;
• propose eligibility requirements for new agreements to assess actions being considered for funding.
Kiribati has a fishing partnership agreement with the EC so if the recommendations are taken aboard it could mean more rigid monitoring and updating of their catch databases
Longline VDS will take time
Despite doomsayers predicting further bad times for Longline Vessels with the Vessel Day Scheme (VDS) scheduled to take off next year, change will take time reports the PNA.
Parties to Nauru Agreement (PNA) Chief Executive Officer Dr Transform Aqorau said implementing VDS will require all boats to be on the VDS register: "At the moment we don't have a good picture of all these longline boats and it is a much bigger fishery and a lot of those boats are fishing on the high seas also. We also don't have the levels of controls and the quality of data is really bad and the reporting we are getting is poor. So, first thing is to fix the register first."
Dr Aqorau also said PNA countries may not be willing to move straight away into selling days for longline boats.
"Like the purse seine VDS, it really took time and once they started to manage and monitor their days and then they became comfortable, and once we get a better grasp of the economics and data, then countries can start saying they will charge so much for a day.
He said one longline boat can make in a year what one purse seiner boat can make in one trip.

I've noted my friends make random comments like "Before I marry a girl I'll have to have dated her for 4 years and lived with her for at least one of them." So it made me curious. What are you criteria?
What is your criteria for marriage?
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 4
Compatibility. I value that more than anything... searched for years and found it. Hadta go way outside my region to get her, but I did. We met, dated and all that... But I found it was compatibility that did it for me...00|00|0
If I love her and things feel right, that's probably enough.00|00|0
No comment00|00|0
If I love her, she loves me, and the relationship isn't toxic, I'll marry her.00|00|0
What Girls Said 7
Ideally, I'd like to date my betrothed 4-6 years before the marriage, wtih maybe a year for the engagement. It is not important to me that we live together, but I could be swayed if it was really important to my future husband.00|00|0
When I can trust the guy completely, and that I know that our life plans are on the same page. I mean I wouldn't like to be married for a couple of years to find out that he never wants children or that he wants to move to another country or something.00|00|0
If I get married (not sure I want to), I'll have to be dating the guy for at least three years first. They say that after three years, infatuation wears off and if you're still compatible together and have chemistry, you know (really know) you're in love.
Other than that, shared values, compatibility, trust, honesty, and friendship are what I require. Similar parenting skills or ideas would probably be helpful too.00|00|0
my boyfriend criteria is he will marry me after we finish school and live together for a year. my critera is I will marry him after I finish school and he propses, and of course provided that we still love, trust and understand each other.00|00|0
i'll only marry him when...
we have lived together for about a year &
i completely trust & love him <--& vise versa00|00|0
also, we need to be financially secure
I don't have any requirements. When I know, I'll know. Follow your heart, that's how I live life.00|00|0
Genuine, financial stable00|00|0

Remember the Gospel of Judas? First announced in a TV programme released just before Easter in April 2006 through the auspices of the National Geographic Society?
The First International Conference on the Gospel of Judas organized by Madeleine Scopello was held in Paris, University of Sorbonne, October 27th-28th 2006. The proceedings of the conference are due to be published in August 2008 by Brill.
Then came the spate of new books on the topic. Then on Dec 1, 2007 came Prof April DeConick's OpEd piece in the New York Times (login required) followed by the response from the National Geographic Society and various reactions.
In March 2008, Prof DeConick organized a conference on the Gospel of Judas at Rice University.
Most recently, on May 30, Thomas Bartlett wrote a piece in the Chronicle for Higher Education: "The Betrayal of Judas." This received wide attention. Here's the National Geographic's response and Tom Bartlett's rejoinder.
Finally, today on April DeConick's blog comes a statement by Marvin Meyer and observations by Prof DeConick herself including updating and revision of her book The Thirteenth Apostle.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) issued guidance Dec. 12 reminding employers that job applicants are protected from employment discrimination and harassment based on depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia and other mental health conditions and may keep their condition private in most cases before an employment offer is made.
"Many people with common mental health conditions have important protections under the Americans with Disabilities Act [ADA]," said EEOC Chair Jenny R. Yang. The ADA applies to employers with 15 or more employees.
Employers and job applicants should know that mental health conditions are no different than physical health conditions under the law, Yang said. "In our recent outreach to veterans who have returned home with service-connected disabilities, we have seen the need to raise awareness about these issues."
EEOC data indicate that charges of discrimination based on mental health conditions are on the rise. During fiscal year 2016, preliminary figures show that the agency resolved almost 5,000 charges of discrimination based on mental health conditions, obtaining approximately $20 million for individuals who were unlawfully denied employment and reasonable accommodations.
[SHRM members-only toolkit: Employing People with Psychiatric Disabilities]
The EEOC guidance document reiterates that it is illegal for an employer to pass over a job applicant simply because he or she has a mental health condition. Employers do not have to hire people for jobs they can't perform, but "an employer cannot rely on myths or stereotypes about mental health conditions" when deciding whether an applicant can perform the job or not, the agency said.
Generally, employers cannot ask applicants if they have any mental health conditions before making a job offer. The EEOC states that "before a job offer has been made, you can't ask questions about an applicant's disability or questions that are likely to reveal whether an applicant has a disability. This is true even if the disability is obvious. You can ask the applicant to describe or demonstrate how she would perform specific job tasks, but you can't ask about her disability."
Questions to avoid include:
However, an employer is allowed to ask medical questions of job applicants in these three situations:
If job candidates do talk about their condition for any reason, they are protected from discrimination and the information must be kept confidential from co-workers if they are hired.
"The ADA requires that employee medical information be kept separate from general personnel files in a confidential medical file, available only under limited conditions to supervisors, managers, first aid and safety personnel, and government officials investigating compliance with the ADA," said Jon Hyman, a partner in the labor and employment group of Meyers, Roman, Friedberg & Lewis, based in Cleveland.
If an employer rejects an applicant after a post-offer disability-related question or medical examination and the applicant files a complaint with the EEOC alleging discrimination, agency investigators will closely scrutinize whether the rejection was based on the results of that question or examination. If a question or examination screens out an individual because of a disability, the employer must demonstrate that the reason for the rejection is job-related and consistent with business necessity.
Recruiters and hiring managers must have objective evidence that someone can't perform the duties of the job or that he or she would create a significant safety risk—even with a reasonable accommodation—before rejecting the individual for a position. "The ADA does not protect employees who pose a direct threat—a significant risk of substantial harm—to the health or safety of the individual or to the safety of others, if that risk cannot be eliminated or reduced below the level of a direct threat by reasonable accommodation," Hyman explained.
He added that for employers to be in compliance with the ADA, they must establish, through "objective, medically-supportable methods," that a significant risk of substantial harm could occur in the workplace.

Monday, June 18, 2007
Srikanth, the upcoming hero in Tamil and Telugu is in big trouble due to his secret marriage with Vandhana. A few weeks ago, Srikanth announced his proposed official marriage on June 18 with the same girl to the press. At that time, Srikanth said rather innocently that Vandana was his friend, and both their parents had made the arrangements for their marriage. Later, Vandhana revealed that she has been in love with the actor for the past 4 years!
After a week, a report was published in the media that the family of Vandhana engaged in land fraud and there are many cases pending with the CBI on Vandhana, her brother and parents. According to the cases, Vandhana's family has cheated people to the tune of about Rs.20 crores. All these reports came out at the time the wedding invitations were being printed. Srikanth's father Krishnamachari has since stopped the printing of invitations, and has cancelled the marriage.
But Vandhana says firmly that Srikanth knows everything, and he will return soon, accepting her.
Yesterday, Vandhana took a hasty decision and entered Srikanth's house and announced that Srikanth had married her a few months ago. It was registered in the sub-registrar's office of Kakinada, Andhra on 07.02.2007. Srikanth's parent's were shocked to hear this, and asked her to vacate the place immediately. But Vandhana stayed on stubbornly, and told them that it was her matrimonial home and she will stay there permanently. This couldn't be tolerated by Srikanth's parents and they vacated the house immediately with Srikanth also going into a hiding in Tirupathi, leaving the girl alone in the house.
Soon after this incident, Srikanth's parents lodged a complaint at Vadapalani Police Station on Vandhana's trespassing.
On June 15, she told the press that she had married him in the presence of her parents but without his parents consent about four months back in Kakinada. She released her marriage photos and a copy of the marriage certificate issued by a Registrar's office in Kakinada, to the press.
Srikanth finally come out in the open, and admitted to having signed the marriage papers. The actor said: "Our marriage never consummated. After we announced the wedding date, I learnt that Vandana was jailed for an offence and the passports of her parents were impounded, as they were involved in criminal cases. Later, she walked into my house with some goondas, and fearing for the life of my aged parents, I was forced to abandon my house. Now I have sought police protection. I am ready to face the issue legally..." He also admitted that he was initially lying with the media on his marriage with Vandhana.
Vandhana has also lodged a complaint with the same police station that Srikanth had asked for Rs 10 lakhs as dowry to start his next film! She has no plans to leave the actor's house and will stay put there till he returns and accepts her as his wife!
Meanwhile, the police have started their inquiry over the issue. They have informed Srikanth to come to the station for further questioning.


text: I got ripped off on Flea-bay. When the fuel tank arrived I was more concerned about how it would fit on the KTM 520 exc than with the general condition of the tank itself. Once I removed the filler cap, I noticed the grey RTV sealant around the base of the filler neck. I filled the tank with water and my fears were confirmed -- the "patch" is not watertight. After removing the sealant, I can now see a crack (void) that goes about half way around the circumference of the filler neck. Has anyone found a fix for patching up these plastic tanks? I'm guessing that RTV sealant is not the way to go. Anyone out there with successful epoxy experience???

The head of Qatar's 2022 World Cup organizing committee says he's "comfortable and confident" the tournament won't be taken from his country.
Hassan al-Thawadi also defended Qatar's record on protecting migrant workers, after claims that dozens have died during construction work linked to the World Cup.
FIFA's executive committee is discussing the labor issue at a two-day meeting which opened Thursday as trade union activists protested at the football body's gates.
Al-Thawadi says Qatar's preparation to host the World Cup "is accelerating a number of these initiatives" to improve workers' rights.
The FIFA board will debate Friday if the 2022 tournament should be switched from summer because of the fierce Qatari heat.
Al-Thawadi says there is "no time limit" for FIFA to decide which months are best to play in.

I noticed the LCO I bought it from had it set-up with the rear tilted one notch lower than the front. He said he thought it mulched better that way. Any comments or other experiences tilting the deck vs keeping it level?

Getting advertising vouchers for free are hard to come by. But I have scrapped together a large group of links that will help you get free credits from Google Adwords, Bing Ads and Facebook Ads. If you own an online business, a website or you're thinking of planning to sell a product/service on the web then you probably thought about online advertising. If you have, and you have done your research you've probably figured out that advertising online isn't cheap. In fact, depending on what you are promoting you can spend well over a $100 a day.
If you are not a professional advertiser that knows the realms of the keyword cost, marketing techniques or luring titles then jumping into the world of PPC (pay-per-click) is not going to be easy.
Fortunately, there is a way you can get free advertising vouchers and start marketing online without wasting your money. You can even use these vouchers to get more space on Dropbox by applying this unique method mentioned here. But first let me list all the reasons why PPC advertising is one of the easiest and quickest ways to get eyes on your website/product/service.
How PPC Advertising works:
You create an ad (text or image) which is automatically placed on websites that has relevant content to what you are promoting. Visitors click on your ad and visit your website. That's the gist of it. There is a lot more detail that goes into PPC campaigns but it can be summed up in those 3 steps.
Learn how to get Free Advertising from Google, Bing and Facebook
You can get anywhere from $25 to $200 of free credit for any one of those major search engines or social networks, but there is a catch.
There are a few requirements to get these vouchers for free. In order to them you must have an account in the following services/sites.
- Web hosting company (HostGator, Arvixe,)
- Domain Registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap)
- Marketing Service (MoZ, AdStage, SEOBook)
- Other Sites
If you don't have an account in anyone of these services then don't worry. I will be listing a method that you can use to gain free advertising vouchers but you will have to cough up a few bucks (no more than $10) to gain the benefits.
Why companies provide perks
So let me explain how this works. Many online services provide perks for signing up with them. One of the perks are advertising vouchers for Google Adwords, Bing Ads and Facebook Ads. Most of the time it will be one of those three and hardly ever all 3 of them. You will have to find the perks/promotional page on these sites. In most cases you will only have a few perks and the credit for the advertising agencies will not be too high.
List of Services that provide Free Advertising Vouchers
I do want to mention that you will need to either sign in on your existing account or Sign up for an account with one of these Hosting services to receive the vouchers. Also, there are some restrictions to each promotion.
Below are links to guides that will help you locate various vouchers/credits.
* You must spend $25 to receive $100.

http://blog.arvixe.com/getting-started-with-bing-ads/ ($100 Bing Ad Voucher)

Pay $9 to get over $200 of Advertising Vouchers
If you don't want to spend too much money on hosting or domain names, the best option would be to purchase a hosting plan from FatCow called the "Cheap Sheep Plan". This is a promotional offer which gets you a year of hosting for only $9. When you sign up for their promotional plan you will also get over $200 of advertising vouchers. I am not sure whether or not they are the greatest hosting company but you don't have to use their service. You can just sign up and collect the goodies.
Final Words
Using these links will help you get started in PPC advertising with well-known companies. However, its important to understand how to configure your campaign. For a thorough, in depth information on PPC advertising check out WordStream PPC 101 course. It's free and very informative.
If you know of any other promotions that involve advertising vouchers please leave a link in the comment section below. I'll be sure to keep these links updated and cross off the ones that no longer work.
