You want to know my biggest fear about being an expat is? That the longer I stay away from Australia, the more difficult it is to move back home.
I am endlessly torn between whether our kids are better off as expat children, being born and raised across different parts of the world, or if they should be raised back at home, living the simple Aussie life. Either side seems to have so many negatives and positives, and I still haven't decided which is better for us.
When I am in Jakarta, I appreciate so much of what we have, especially the ability to have one parent staying at home to raise the kids. This is a luxury because back at home, my husband and I would both have to work to support our lifestyle.
I love the great schools in Jakarta and the extracurricular activities that they can participate in because it's more affordable, more available and easier to go to (because I have nannies and drivers to help get them around.) I love that my kids speak Bahasa, think that the call of prayer from the Mosque is normal and don't blink an eye seeing woman wearing hijabs. I love this diversity and natural tolerance that my children have formed by being exposed to so many different things from an early age.
But the minute I leave Jakarta and step foot into Australia, I instantly feel like I'm letting my children down by raising them outside of our beautiful country.
The first thing we did as a family in Australia was go to a park. It immediately felt like 'this is where we belong!' Being able to walk around freely, not feeling like we're an outsider, which we often feel as expats in Jakarta because of our obvious different appearance. Walking around with other families who are just like us, with the same culture, same upbringing and morals. Seeing all of the outdoor sports and great Aussie athletic lifestyle, with kids on paddle boards, parents dinking babies on bikes and families playing footy. It all just feels like home to us and what's right for our family.
But later that night when we went out for a walk, it didn't feel like home anymore! It was a quiet Sunday night and the street felt like a ghost town. There was complete silence in the air with no cars, or people. We suddenly missed Jakarta and all of its hectiness! We missed the busy night life, the noisy traffic and endless street food vendors. We missed the heartbeat of Jakarta and immediately thought, we could never move back to Australia!
This is the predicament that I am in. I have one foot in Australia and one foot in Jakarta. I can never completely live wholly in either country and sometimes feel like a stranger in both.

Comedienne claims she spoke to accuser's mother…
Michael Jackson's trial on child molestation charges was marked yesterday by the testimony of a witness who claims she spoke to the accuser's mother while the family were allegedly being held hostage at NEVERLAND. (March 22)
Comedienne Louise Palanker was called to the stand in an attempt to substantiate prosecutors' claims that the Arvizo family were held at the star's ranch against their will.
During their opening statements several weeks ago, prosecutors alleged that Michael Jackson held 15-year-old accuser Gavin Arvizo and his family at the singer's home in order to make a video tape rebuttal to the controversial Martin Bashir documentary that was shown on TV in 2003.
Yesterday, in a Santa Maria courtroom, Palanker took the stand for the prosecution, testifying she received a call from the teen's mother Janet Arvizo.
According to BBC News, Palanker said that Arvizo phoned her upset and crying. "It's not a safe line, they're listening to every word I say. These people are evil, they are keeping us."
Palanker's relationship with the family goes back to 2000. During Arvizo's battle with cancer she gave them $20,000.
Michael Jackson's lawyers say that Gavin's mother tried to exploit relationships with Palanker and other celebrities to extort money, though Palanker testified that Janet Arvizo had never asked her for money.
Palanker said that it was the woman's former husband who had pursued her for the cash.
Following the short day of testimony, Michael Jackson, who on Monday (March 21) brought his doctor to court with him due to a back injury, told reporters that he is doing better.
Michael Jackson denies ten charges, including child abuse and false imprisonment.

"Make Wonder Woman Bisexual" is the demand of a change.org petition released Monday by an employee of the LGBT organization GLAAD, according to Breitbart.
Gianna Collier-Pitts states in her appeal to those who want a lesbian-leaning Diana Prince that this summer's blockbuster "was a success for everyone…except the bisexual community."
On the petition's campaign page, Collier-Pitts asserts:
"Wonder Woman's Diana Prince hails from (the) land of the Amazons…inhabited exclusively by women. This alone should serve as reason enough to confirm her sexuality."
The notion of the Queen Mother of superheroes being a lover of Lilith Fair isn't without precedence: Greg Rucka, DC Comics author, told Comicosity last year that on Diana's home world of the ladies-only Themyscira, romance is possible solely with other women.
The change.org plea for a bisexual summer tentpole heroine has amassed 1,945 signatures so far, just 555 shy of its goal.
"All I ask is that Warner Bros. directly acknowledge Diana Prince for who she is, who she has always been (regardless of her current love interest), and what her character could potentially represent for millions of people," Collier-Pitts writes.
She's not the first to dream of an alternative-lifestyle defender of the universe: last summer, some Marvel fans promoted #GiveCaptainAmericaABoyfriend in hopes of filmmakers cooking up a gay lover for the Cap'n. Just weeks earlier, an online petition asked Disney for a lesbian love interest for Elsa, the main character in Disney's upcoming sequel to Frozen.
Wonder Woman will indeed be back, in the summer of 2019. Whether she arrives in theaters with a rainbow-colored lasso remains to be seen. Gianna Collier-Pitts wants a bisexual hero for a bisexual audience, and 2,500 signatures is perhaps not insubstantial; but if Warner Bros.—Diana Prince's portal to the masses—wants to top the first film's $820 million take, perhaps it would do better to consider the over-323-million Americans who didn't sign the petition—the vast, vast majority of whom are straight.

"Orchard Road is a road in Singapore that is the retail and entertainment hub of the city-state."
This uniquely Singapore street, now has a newly opened restaurant named after it located at the Bridgeway, 3rd floor of SM Megamall.
B ate here for the first time a couple of weeks back and maybe he recalled the food to be good-OK and so he suggested for us to dine here for dinner.
Their place is spacious and roomy with lots of tables for diners. And they also have an open type kitchen so you can take a peek at what the chefs are cooking and decide what you'd like to order from there (as you can see from the picture above).
Once you are seated, you will be given an order form complete with all the foods their serving.
While deciding what to eat and waiting for the order…
We played with B's newest vintage camera – Canonet something. He he.
And since I am not familiar with most of the Singaporean dishes, we asked the waiter for the spicy dish they have.
And he suggested this…
Laksa – a coconut-based curry soup.Php145.
Surprisingly, I liked it. One complaint though is that I wish they served this noodle soup hot. It's spiciness will surely be enhanced if they served it to me uber hot!
For B's order, he got…
Black Pepper Chicken & Rice. Served with egg. Php145.
Popiah. Fresh spring rolls. Php45.
For drinks…
Calamansi (hot). Php45.
Happy eating!

"He asked you if you were a bear?? I don't…mean to be
rude, but that reminds me of
Joey. You know,
how he's always talking about how there are no bears in Jamaica?"
And simple as that, Corinne pointed out what I'd been missing the
entire month of November. Boy Wonder had
NOT been dissing me in a
manner unseen since my näive undergrad days. He was just
oblivious. Because he's a med
student. And med students, by definition, are
space cadets.
Example: another med guy I know was waxing romantic the other night
about how he wanted to "find his Elliot" (from
Scrubs). To support this argument, he
told the story of how the she punched her JD
in the face when he broke up with her. What ever does it
for you, I guess. I'm around so few non-meds these
days, I forget we used to make special allowances for them
when I was in Houston. As in, I'm sure only the most stable of the
lot made it into my H-town circle of friends, and yet, we still
took it for granted that med student =
awkward. Now that I get to see the full range of med students
every day, I am acquainted with maladroitness of mythical
proportions. You don't believe me? Of the coolest guys I know, one
named his dog after a type of cell found in your brain
("Oligodendrocyte"), and another
buys flowers for his
cat. Literally, these are two of the
most well-adjusted
friends I have. You don't want to hear stories about
the charity
cases. This zoo distorts your perception.
What has medical school done to
me? I used to drink
cocktails with
millionaires and party with
trust-fund socialites–now I'm
intimidated by the socially challenged.

***In El Paso, I would see college kids, business people, and occasionally overhear nascent filmmakers discussing their newest projects. (Because Hollywood is so expensive, and southern New Mexico is so sunny, there's actually an indie film community out there.)
***In Lubbock, I hung out at J&B's amongst the Tech intellectual community, sorority club meetings, and church groups while drinking cappucino.
***Now, in New Orleans, I drink cafe au lait amongst novelists–I'm always overhearing writers discuss how to manage this plot point or that theme, etc. I regularly see & chat with med students & residents–people say hello and know me by name after I've only been here a week. What is it about New Orleans that makes me feel so much like I belong?
Houston, can you compete with this?

Feeling Strangely Fine June 7, 2010
Life has been really good lately. Not quite in the, "Wow, everything is going my way," line, but not at all awful either. I've had some good days, and some bad ones. Today wasn't particularly spectacular. The computers were still down and the novelty had worn off. Clinic was really slow, and slow doesn't really mean less work so much as it means less interesting work. The past few weeks I've had a lot of head & neckaches. But overall, I feel like I'm in control of my own destiny–as though I can be as successful, or as happy as I want, as long as I stay focused on the goal.
I've been able to sleep, work, study, and even relax a little bit, making time for social stuff and for the inevitable solo goofing off. I've had time to let some big questions to surface.
What exactly do I want out of life? Do I want to be professionally successful, or do I want to be really happy personally? If I prioritize these two, will achieving one mean sacrificing the other? Which would make me a better person? Does it matter?
I know I want to travel. I want to make a difference somehow. And it'd be nice if I got to share my life with a man and a dog at some point. But do I really have that much control over whether any of this actually happens? Or should I just quit worrying and trust everything to be all right?
Sign of the cross wards off the evil eye…. June 4, 2010
It's all my fault. First all the clinic computers go down to a virus shortly after I arrive. By lunch we know all 4 campus of Texas Tech Health Sciences Center have been hit.
Then, my resident gets stuck on the wrong side of the border and has to cancel his afternoon appointments (What was he doing over there on a Friday morning to begin with?).
Two patients later, I have seen exactly one cat scratch fever & one CHF/Amphetamine abuse/chronic alcoholism/pyogenic granuloma–which translate neatly into 2 hospital admissions to my patient log. Arranging direct admissions with pen & paper is a bit of a drag.
The clerkship director sent me home before I could do anymore damage…pray for the cat.
What? Life outside the hospital? April 12, 2010
I used to be so jealous of classmates who were far enough ahead in studies & budget to take little minibreaks on the weekend. I spent my first two years of med school in a constant struggle to stay in the black, catch up with my work, and catch up on sleep. Now that I'm just comfortable enough to allow little excursions every so often, I realize that 1) you never catch up, 2) staying on budget is overrated. Sometimes, the best thing you can do for yourself is take a few days off.
I'm sitting in a Reno airport after a lovely mountain holiday with my brother & company in & around Lake Tahoe. Climbing, hiking, sight-seeing, and as much raw fish as I could eat. How is it so easy to get wrapped up in work and career when there's so much life waiting out on the other side?
I want to learn from these little side trips and use the lessons to make good specialty choices in medicine, but sometimes it feels like the choice is between the time vs. the money to enjoy the best things in life–like you can't have both. But I know I don't want to spend my entire life in the hospital or the clinic. There's so much more out there waiting to be experienced.
Words to Live By. November 22, 2008
Those who know me personally can undoubtedly confirm that I have trouble keeping my mouth shut. At least I'm aware of it. As a consequence, I tend to collect advice on how to stay quiet. Two of my favorites:
It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say, and then don't say it.–Sam Levenson
Think before you speak. Read before you think. This will give you something to think about that you didn't make up yourself-a wise move at any age, but most especially at seventeen when you are in greatest danger of coming to annoying conclusions.–Fran Lebowitz
For wisdom less witty, but certainly just as practical, four questions generally attributed to His Holiness the Dalai Lama:
- Is it TRUE?
- Is it NECESSARY?
- Is it KIND?
- Is it HELPFUL?
I find these to be excellent checkpoints in conversation, whether the "should I or shouldn't I?" question applies to a juicy bit of gossip or a difficult business/academic matter. I'd probably fare better if I used them more often.

What an insult. I'm glad Pujols is not playing but I hope we make LaRussa play for his cocky ass arrogance. They figure that they can rest their star and still handily beat the lowly Nats.

Tipic stories Chapter 4: Virtuoso Spirit
1.44 minutes reading
⁄ Vir·tu·o·so ⁄ Spir·it ⁄
Extremely skilled at something, especially at playing an instrument or performing
The manufacturing background of the Italian furniture & interior bespoke system hides a shared identity that we named "Virtuoso Spirit".
Observing them in their operative intimacy, interior bespoke solutions firms unveil an elaborate network work made of service, versatility, customization and complex orders management. Different and peculiar processings masterfully systematized. Carpentries, glassmakers, marble factories, smitheries, upholsteries are all companies united by a craftsman attitude, attention to detail, flexibility, customization and quality.
A shared identity named "Virtuoso Spirit"
Virtuoso Spirit is the storytelling with whom we want to celebrate this italian heritage by emphasizing its shared identity because moving the focus from a single subject to a plurality is today, in our opinion, the most important challenge.
The bespoke world is devoted to aggregation
Bespoke has its own logic, specific professionals and requires customized marketing.
Companies who want to approach it face a cultural change that includes design processes and business models: they have to put networking and complexity management first.
The bespoke world is devoted to aggregation not only in terms of production and management. Joining the marketing efforts of the various players involved in a turn-key project conveys a communication power that is fundamental to reveal new business opportunities. Creating a shared identity in the Spirit of an ever more Virtuouso paradigm.
This is a consideration born observing the entities of our territory. Italian SMEs, and especially those related to design, have just started to become a group and the bespoke market is an excellent opportunity to educate ourselves to the concept of shared identity.
The business model of Italian design is in fact particularly appreciated for its specific nature, a particularly happy combination of industrial and craft production techniques that represent Italy at its best. Because the "Italian way" of working tells an original way of using the mind, the heart, the hands.
Virtuoso Spirit describes all this, to remind us that moving from a single subject to a plurality is today first need and opportunity. To transform the "I" in "us" is needed, one in many, amplifying the gaze, tracing a path that no longer belongs to a single person, but to an entire community.
The "Italian way" of working tells an original way of using the mind, the heart, the hands.
"Virtuoso Spirit" is a project by TIPIC with Francesco De Luca.

When a natural disaster rocks a region like Hurricane Irma did to the Caribbean, the aftermath isn't just felt by those whose hometowns were left almost unrecognizable—it also affects neighboring countries. While images of Bahaman beaches sucked dry from the hurricane went viral, it shouldn't deter you from visiting many of the now-recovered idyllic islands, who gain 50% of GDP from tourism. In fact, it's now more important than ever to support them. Surprisingly, Nassau Tourism Board points out that the country's capital wasn't impacted by the hurricane, and for hotels and locals alike, it's business as usual.
So if you've been thinking about escaping the impending cold and taking one last beach vacation, we've got just the place. A string of renovations and the much-anticipated opening of Baha Mar, a multibillion-dollar development that's been 10 years in the making, means the Bahamas has probably changed a lot since you last visited. Good news: The newest suites boast incredible standalone tubs, the family options are surprisingly varied and high-end, and the beaches are still second-to-none. Here's to a never ending summer.
If You're Planning a Bachelorette Party …
Forget Vegas—Nassau's newest luxury development, Baha Mar, will be a mecca for bachelorette parties. The multibillion-dollar development launched in April and is home to three major hotels, including Grand Hyatt, which is the first to open.
Thanks to its size (the development spans over 1000 acres in total), the list of bachelorette party activities are endless: There are 11 swimming pools surrounded by swaying palm trees, a world-class Espa brand spa, 30 luxury retailers, including Tiffany & Co. and MAC, and the largest casino in the Carribean. What's more is that the standard suites are outfitted with stand-alone tubs akin with luxury rooms and are priced in the mid-$300 range.
Despite its scale, many of Baha Mar's offerings feel surprisingly quaint and boutique. Standouts include Cafe Madeline (pictured), a French patisserie with incredible pastries, and Churchill's, an expertly decorated cigar bar, offering hand-rolled cigars and over 40 different types of rum.
If you're planning a girls' trip to the spa, allow at least 30 minutes to enjoy the facilities before your treatment starts. The mirrored mosaic showers are enchanting.
If You're Splashing Out With Your S.O. …
There's certainly no shortage of luxury lodgings in the Bahamas, but the One&Only Ocean Club takes the top spot for those looking for a refined retreat with plenty of privacy. When you enter the lounge, it's clear that the hotel has a long list of celebrity guests: Photos of Oprah Winfrey and the Beatles sit atop the piano, and the bar was where Casino Royale was filmed.
The One&Only attracts a different type of traveler than its neighboring resorts. The property has an air of tranquility and activities are understated but restorative: Guests can wander the Versailles-style tiered garden, practice morning yoga with ocean views, relax in the Balinese-inspired spa, or try their hand at stand-up paddleboarding at the resorts quiet white-sand beach.
Whatever you do, don't miss dining at One&Only Ocean Club's restaurant, Dune. Legendary restaurateur Jean-Georges Vongerichten heads up the menu, which consists of French-Asian cuisine with a touch of local Bahamian flavors. Our pick: Start with the yellowfin tuna tartare with ginger marinade, and opt for the local lobster with a light curry sauce—you won't be disappointed.
If You're on a Family Trip (But Still Want "Me" Time)…
Enter via The Cove, Atlantis's high-end accommodation offering, and you'd have no idea you were near the iconic fantasy water park. Designed by architect Jeffrey Beers, the suites have a residential feel and are a serene option if you'd like to use the hotel's famed facilities without waterslide views.
Traveling as a family? Book two adjoining rooms, which can be configured with a central door to feel like a larger, communal space.
The number of restaurants and attractions at Atlantis are exhaustive, but make sure Sun & Ice is at the top of your list. The recently opened ice cream parlor is the brainchild of Bahamian chef Wayne Moncur. Each scoop has a story, and flavors are expertly infused with local Bahamian ingredients like sea grapes and sapodilla.
If You Want to Feel Like a Celebrity …
Forget what you think you know about all-inclusive resorts—Sandals Royal Bahaman is among the best options in Nassau. Guests who book the top-tier option will be treated like royalty. The service includes a private butler trained by the esteemed Guild of Professional English Butlers.
Even if you opt for one of the entry-level packages, the options abound: Start by venturing to the resort's private island, an idyllic stretch of sand accessible by a short boat ride. Make use of the sauna and steam room, which is included in your booking, lounge by the swim-up bar, or take a complimentary scuba diving trip. Oh, and pack your yoga pants—the gym's ocean views are motivation to work out.
Have you been to the Bahamas? Tell us where you stayed and if you'd recommend it to other travelers.

Menbere Medhane owns Ahadu, an Ethiopian restaurant in Seattle #EthiopiansInSeattle
This is the third evolution of Medhane's business, which began as a small market in 2005. After it morphed into a butcher shop in 2012, customers began to request that Medhane also cook the meat for them, then maybe some vegetables to go with it. She was game, but says it was essential that she start the restaurant with spices from her home country.
Her late father worked in the spice business while she was growing up in Ethiopia. When famine and civil war ravaged the country, he sent her to live in Seattle. The teenager, who spoke little English when she arrived in 1986, lived with an older brother, attended Garfield High School and worked at McDonald's to pay for her prom dress. In 2014, she returned to Ethiopia, where a few siblings and her mother still live, acquired the spices and returned to open her restaurant.

With no real value beyond stuffing a few pillows, most of the leftover feathers are burned or dumped in landfill sites, where they pose a potential biological hazard because of blood and tissue residue.
Tamrat Tesfaye, an Ethiopian-born scientist based in the South African port city of Durban, asked himself: "What a terrible waste. Why can't we turn them into something much more valuable?"

Eyerusalem Abebaw is president Black Student Union at Burnsville High #EthiopiansInMinnesota
"It's kind of different for me," said Abebaw, who came to District 191 from Ethiopia when she was 9. "Even though a lot of my friends are people of color, a lot of people in my classes aren't, because I take higher-level courses like honors and AP. There's barely any diversity in there, and I'm often the only black person in those classes. So it was very hard for me to be able to express myself in those classes, because even though I was interested in the subjects, I didn't really feel like I connected with the students."

Samuel Getachew is class president at Oakland Tech #EthiopiansInCalifornia
Oakland Tech sophomore class president Samuel Getachew, 15, wrote a poem about guns and racism, which he recited on Wednesday morning to cheers on the steps of his school during the March For Our lives protest.
It's title is "Arms" and the last, and arguably most powerful, line is "when did America fall so in love with the sound of gunshots that she wanted to hear them on her birthday?"

In a recent Twitter Chat, we heard from parents, service providers, health care workers, educators and youth. So many people expressed their personal experiences, shared their ideas on how to make things better – this kind of sharing is critical if change is going to happen.
Here are some examples of the kinds of messages that were shared.
When it came to sharing personal experiences, many people really opened up and shared their experience in this public space:
I once waited 36 hours in the hallway of a hospital waiting for a bed in the psychiatric ward when I was 18. This isn't okay. #Kidscantwait -- @uhhhmanduhhhhh
Two of my four children have received #mentalhealth services via a hospital emergency room. #kidscantwait -- @anndouglas
A member of my family was a victim of child pornography. The wait was too long. We tried the hospital but couldn't get help. #kidscantwait -- @childpornhurts
I'm a Métis YA. My people need more support, and help. First nations have some of the highest suicide rates for all of Canada #kidscantwait -- @godamnitshannon

Balancing the cost of business expansion to remain competitive, while maintaining profitability, can be a challenge. As the need for business space increases, so do overhead expenses. A container office provides businesses a practical solution to the need for more space while controlling costs.
Custom Design
The global proliferation of shipping storage containers has resulted in innovative adaptations for their use. At Cassone, we build custom designed container offices to suit the specific needs of businesses.
Advantages of Container Offices
These custom offices offer several distinct advantages over fixed site construction and traditional building space leasing. Complete with HVAC, interior walls, phone and data lines, the custom office is ready to become operational the day we install it. We can even provide desks, worktables, and file cabinets as part of the design.
Low Cost and a High Return
Receiving the highest return for every dollar spent is a key to business success. The comparatively small cost of a container office means a higher return on the investment in business start-up or expansion.
With a wide variety of floor plans and designs, a container office provides the optimal workspace while eliminating wasted square footage. Container offices are available in a variety of sizes, from ten feet in length up to forty feet, with multiple possible configurations. They can even be stacked to create a multi-story building.
Strength and Durability
Structural strength and high durability mean less worry about weathering and damage. Reinforced steel construction stands up to hard use while protecting the interior space and contents.
Use it as a primary business office or a temporary work area. Install it at offsite projects or use it to handle seasonal increases in business. Flexibility is an important feature of a container office.
When business demands or operations require a change of location, the office can be moved. Transportability makes your office space available where and when it is needed. There is no need to pay for and maintain empty space for future use or to find and pay for new space.
Remaining competitive while controlling costs is the key to long-term business success. Increasingly, businesses are turning to container offices as a solution to reducing operational overhead while maintaining profitability.

A U.S. Census taker talks to a community member early this year.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Census Bureau estimated that the country's population grew to somewhere between roughly 306 million and 313 million over the last decade, acknowledging uncertainty due to rapid shifts in immigration.
The 2000 Census reported the nation's population to be 281.4 million, up 13.2 percent over the 1990 count.
Census Bureau director Robert Groves says pinpointing a more exact tally was difficult partly due to shifts in immigration figures since 2000.
The newest estimates — based on Census surveys and administrative records such as births, deaths and immigration — come about three weeks before the official 2010 Census numbers are released and raise the possibility that the nation has fewer people than had been estimated.
"This is independent of the Census," said Groves. "It gives us another measure of the April 1 population."
Estimates such as those released last Monday are traditionally used as a yardstick to measure how accurate the official Census is.
It's the first time the agency has put out five wide-ranging estimates — a reflection of the churn in immigration patterns this decade caused by the recession and crackdowns on illegal immigrants.
"Immigration is the key," says John Long, who headed the Census population division in 2000 and is a private consultant at USA Demography.
The Census is the only population count on which policy decisions are made, including apportionment of House of Representative seats among the 50 states and the distribution of about $400 billion in federal aid annually to state, local and tribal governments.
Texas could gain four seats and Florida two, while Ohio and New York could lose two seats, according to an analysis by the Election Data Services consulting firm.
The middle range last Monday's demographic analysis, 308.5 million, would be an increase of 8.8 percent from the 2000 census figure.
But Jason Devine, chief of the bureau's methodology, research and development division, said the information isn't intended to determine how the nation has changed in the past decade.
Instead, he said, it is intended to be a snapshot of the nation on April 1, 2010.
Historically, the bureau's estimates of the nation's racial makeup have been limited to "black" and "non-black."
But this year, estimates of the Hispanic population was included for people born in 1990 or later.
That's because most states had begun to use that designation on birth records by 1990, Devine said.
The numbers that really matter — for determining how many Congressional seats each state is allowed, for redistricting and for the distribution of some federal funding — are the 2010 Census numbers, and the first set of that information must be released by Dec. 31.
Groves wouldn't set a date but said the bureau will meet the deadline.
A more detailed set of older data, based on the bureau's American Community Survey between 2005 and 2009, will be released soon.

HCM Baia Mare could even afford to rest some of their players and still handed the heaviest defeat of the Main Round to struggling Thüringer HC. The team from Romania used a 38:27 win to clinch a quarter-final berth with ease against the eliminated German team.
HCM Baia Mare (ROM) vs Thüringer HC (GER) 38:27 (19:12)
The Maramoures faithful knew a win against already eliminated Thüringer could seal their place in the quarter-final and they filled Baia Mare's arena to help their team continue their 100 per cent Main Round record with a fifth straight win.
"I am very proud of my team," Baia Mare coach Aurelian Rosca said, who praised his team's dedication. "Let's enjoy this victory!"
Thüringer started well as Meike Schmelzer and Eliza Buceschi kept the visitors close to Baia Mare, who did not field their strongest line-up.
After the first 20 minutes the team from Romanian found fifth gear and left Thüringer standing. Paula Ungureanu was once again outstanding while Patricia Vizitiu and Alexandra Do Nascimento inspired a great run for the home side.
The match was practically won by halftime as Baia Mare held a 19:12 lead.
Baia Mare sent in their reserves for the second half but still managed to extend their lead as those who play less wanted to show their potential.
Jana Krause did not get much help from the visitors' wall but still made some excellent saves. Even the heroics of the Thüringer goalkeeper could not save them from the heaviest defeat of the Main Round.
"We only manahed to cope with out opponents for 20 minutes," Thüringer coach Herbert Müller said. "After that, we simply made too many mistakes and Baia Mare have such a strong team that, on their best day, can beat anyone."
Baia Mare are in the quarter-finals regardless of the results from the last round, when they will pay a visit to Ferencváros.
"We are having a very good spirit in the past weeks and I think this spirit has shown today on the court," said Lois Abbingh, who netted six times for Baia Mare.

Really more of a philosophical musing than anything else, but feel free to respond!
I ask because I don't feel I'm saving enough. Then again, do you ever feel that you are?
On the surface it looks like my household ain't doin' that bad. I send almost 20% of our net off to the online bank every month. Sounds good, yes?
However, some of that I don't REALLY consider savings. How so? Well, that lump includes the monthly contribution I make to my irregular bills, like water, property taxes, and homeowner's insurance. Granted, I save the money up for a year (or quarter, in the case of water) and then spend it, so I guess it would qualify as short-term savings. But it doesn't 'feel' like savings, it feels like a bill. Probably because it is.
I feel somewhat stuck between a rock and a hard spot, as the saying goes. See, DH responds well when he wants to spend relatively big cash and I tell him that the money in the bank is allotted to X, Y, or Z. For instance, he understands that the homeowner's insurance and property taxes have to be paid no matter what because if we don't we loose our house, so that money is easy to see as sacred. But when money is sitting there without a purpose other than "in case we need it", he seems to see it as fair game.
So, perhaps I just need to mull over and find some more categories that are easy to see as sacred
For those that are wondering, here are the categories that account has so far:
Property Taxes: house
Property Taxes: car
Homeowner's Insurance
Water Bill
Tina's Retirement (no 401k, so saving $ until I can open a Roth)
Christmas Fund
Gift Fund
Medical Fund
Car Maintenance Fund
Vacation Fund
Misc. Household Fund
What Counts As Saving
Really more of a philosophical musing than anything else, but feel free to respond!
11 Responses to "What Counts As Saving"
May 21st, 2007 at 07:02 amThe only thing I really consider savings myself is the efund, and even moreso, retirement. Though obviously retirement is a different animal.
The reason I feel this way is we had considerable cash savings when we were younger, but we ended shifting a lot to retirement, some to pay bills while we weren't working, and the rest for cars. I don't know why it took me so long but I realized this isn't all savings because it gets spent - LOL.
But I have a short-term savings for insurance and property taxes, and a slush fund for smaller unexpected expenses. I don't consider those savings in the least as they will all be spent within the year. Much as you probably wouldn't consider escrow/impound payments a savings.
The efund is more gray as we want the bare minimum to be 3 months living expenses, and we are starting to add about $5k/year for our next car purchases and home maintenance. I like my money to be flexible so we don't separate it out. IT means we should have a good $20k easy each in 10 years to buy new cars, but if we want to go buy a $10k car and need the money for an emergency, or decide we rather go on a big vacation, it's there. As long as there is a basic car fund and 3 months expenses in there. If we have a huge house repair our next car will be more modest, etc. So I consider this fund "savings" but the fact is the money won't stay there forever. I only consider our retirement our real and true savings since it is pretty untouchable.
When things improve, we are going to save money outside retirement (mostly when locked out by retirement limits). I would still consider it retirement, or using it eventually to pay off the mortgage - but overall that would definitely be savings as I would not intend to spend until retirement. I just remembered that as well.
Definitely a good question.
May 21st, 2007 at 07:36 amI'm kind of the same, but only more extreme I guess, because I think of it all as getting spent at some point. Whether it's in the next year for taxes or 40 years down the road when I retire, the only difference is the timeframe.
With that type of mindset, I really should see almost everything as saving, as in I'm saving money I have now for things I'll want or need at some point in the future. Some of them I can forsee (i.e. taxes, another car) some of them I can't (i.e. the actual emergency), but the intent is the same.
The funny thing is I have no problems treating the really long-term savings (retirement) and the really short-term savings (taxes, etc) the same: don't touch the money! The long-term stuff needs time to grow and work for me, and the short-term stuff will be needed so soon that I can't make up for it if I spend it. It's the middle-term money that seems to be causing problems.
Ima saver
May 21st, 2007 at 07:41 amI have the same problem.
May 21st, 2007 at 08:36 amWhat we consider real savings: Retirement and Major Purchases (House, Car, Furniture). If we had children, I'm sure College would also be considered savings. Everything else, we just consider "budgeting."
Many many years ago, when we started budgeting, my husband couldn't see the sense of carrying such a large balance in the "pet fund," but he saw the light when our late cat needed cancer surgery and those funds disappeared in a week.
I think it takes a couple of times when you really need that mid-term money for it to become clear why you have it.
Our "funds" are actually just columns in a ledger, as our money is kept together but is earmarked for specific purposes. [This works for us, but I understand why the envelope system or separate accounts works better for others.]
About once a year, we look at our balances and we sometimes move funds around.
We don't have a specific "Emergency Fund" category because between all of the other categories plus the money that's for my husband's business, we have enough to live on for over a year if necessary. If it weren't for the business (and the cash flow needed), I'm sure we'd have a separate EF, which we would probably call the "Unexpected Unemployment" Fund!
BTW, do you have "Home Repair" funds and "Replacement" (Car, Furniture, Etc) categories?
May 21st, 2007 at 09:52 amIf it is 'saved for a bill' it is 'escrowed' you can't touch. If it is 'saved for emergency' find stats on how many medical emergencies wipe out families each year.....either he will eat healthier or will be willing to leave an EF alone.
Either way you will prolly have to settle for a happy medium, between what you would like to squirrel away, and what he would like to spend.
playing verbal semantics might get the EF higher, but it wont change what you are doing prolly...savings is a tricky word IMO.
Tighten the purse strings too far and a spender will spend more in defiance....loosen them too much and a spender wont ever bother to think first....a lose lose situation if I ever saw one.
May 21st, 2007 at 11:55 amI agree with Tina. Eventually all of your savings will be spent even in retirement. It's only a matter of time. I also struggled with savings and what was considered savings. If it is a an account that is irregular and will be paid out during 1 years time, I call it an escrow account and allocate money each month to fund it. I'm sure that's why financial planners ask you about short, middle and long term goals. Each one comes at a different time but they are goals. I would definitely consider saving for a car a mid-term goal because it may take you at least 5 years to save for it. If you can call your bank account an escrowed account your husband may see if differently.
May 21st, 2007 at 04:04 pmIt's not savings if you are spending it this year. So car insurance, property taxes, etc. Sorry but it's not savings you're just holding the money till it's due. I have to explain to my DH why I have $5k in the savings account at any time, ummm...property taxes are high and due every 3 months! So I need a large cash cushion for stuff like that. It's not savings it's just a holding account. arrgh.
May 21st, 2007 at 04:44 pmI put the money for property taxes and homeowner's insurance in my savings account, but don't consider it
"savings". I keep a running total of how much of it is for tax & ins. and deduct that from "real" savings. It may be in the same account, but the amount "escrowed" for a bill that is coming up, is kept separate in my mind, if not in actuality.
May 21st, 2007 at 07:15 pmI'm the same I don't consider money I put away for bills as savings, especially if they are within the next 12 months. They are expenses to me and I have "Funds" for them. I guess, savings to me is the money left over once I've taken all those expenses out. Then I have different types of savings, such as "mini-saving" and saving for investments. Saving for investment to me is the ultimate saving, which hopefully create wealth/growth.
May 22nd, 2007 at 01:54 pmYou said: But when money is sitting there without a purpose other than "in case we need it", he seems to see it as fair game.
So don't let him see it sitting there. Put it in an account he doesn't see. You've said before he has a substantial monthly allowance, which I personally consider an enormous allowance. He doesn't need to "see" money set aside for other things. Since its your income generating the savings, if I recall properly, I see no reason why you can't keep it separate from the accounts he can access.
May 22nd, 2007 at 02:15 pmWell, all the money is kept in either my checking or my online savings account. The only joint account we have is his checking account, where his allowance is.
With that said, we do have relatively regular financial check-ups where he sees the growing balances in all the accounts. Seeing the savings he understands build up helps keep him motivated. Thisi s a double edged sword, of course, because it means that he sees the 'other' money sitting there too.
And yes, it is my salary that has us in our current rosy financial position. Other than our allowances, the money is all treated as house money, not mine or his. I'm debating about adjusting my allowance to be a percentage of my salary that closely mirrors his. I don't want to, though, because that means I'll have this wash of "disposable" personal money, and I'll just wind up saving for the household out of it (i.e. EF, pay down debt, etc). Then again, if that's the way I want to spend my personal money then I suppose so be it, right?

You brought me into this world,
