Keeping Track of Your Expenses
Any financial expert will tell you it is essential to make a budget if you want to have control of your personal finances. I too believe a budget is crucial. But for it to work once you have created it, you need to do one more thing. You need to follow up afterwards and therefore you need to track how you spend your money.Keeping track of the expenses is what most people find boring and where they quickly lose the desire to use the budget. Canada Goose jackets This is why it is important to anticipate this problem and make sure you have a viable system to track your expenses. You have to consider this at the same time as you construct your budget, as it might influence how your budget is structured.The most important thing to consider regarding the follow-up is how you will be tracking your expenses. Keeping track of the income is usually relatively easy as there is often only one deposit of your salary every month. Bookkeeping - Keep Track of Where Your Money is Going! Bookkeeping is basically the practice of systematical and methodical recording of financial accounts and business transactions of a unit. Important function of bookkeeping is to show the amounts and causes of the losses and profits over a given time period. Keeping Track of Your Income & Expenses Earning money is one thing, spending it is another, but learning how to manage it is something completely different. The simple truth is that whilst most people are good spenders, very few of us know how to save or manage the money we have. Keeping Track of Your Web Site Passwords Until recently, I didn't have a very good strategy for keeping track of my various Web site passwords and logins. I review a series of methods that supposedly can improve on this situation, including OpenID, and MyOneLogin, and their strengths and weaknesses. Keeping Track of the Changes to Your Mortgage Rate The latest regulations to hit the mortgage and real estate world are based on past, negative behaviors or unscrupulous lenders who would strong arm buyers into paying higher mortgage rates late in a transaction as there wasn't time for a borrower to change their mind about a program or deal with rate increases. Based on HERA (The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008) there are new disclosure requirements that will hopefully reduce the negative experiences that many borrowers have had when dealing with these 'bait and switch' lenders.The tricky part is the expenses. Once you have collected all the information about your expenses, you need to compare them to your budget. If you haven't set up a system that works for you it can be a very slow, tedious process.There are several different ways to keep track of your expenses and you should pick one that works for you. The first method I will mention is simply to keep all your receipts from all your purchases and then at the end of the month you calculate how much is in each category. This can be a very tiresome way to do it. You will need to spend several hours at the end of the month figuring out if you are within budget. The good thing is that this will keep your records consistently updated and you can use this information when you revise your budget.Another way to do it is to read all your expenses from your online statements. If you use a card to pay for all your expenses you can simply copy your online statement into an Excel file when you log onto your online bank account. All you have to do then is classify each post. Of course this requires being able to use a card for all your expenses, and still recording the few cash payments you might make. This way you have all your expenses documented and can easily compare them to the budget. This is my personal choice for keeping track of my expenses.The last and very popular way is the envelope system. With this system you take one envelope for each category of expenses you have and at the beginning of the month you put the amount of cash in the budget for that category into the envelope. Every time you want to purchase something it has to be from the envelope representing the category of the purchase you are making. After the purchase, you could put the receipt into the envelope so you can keep better track. With this method you never overspend and can constantly see how much is left for the month. The disadvantage is that you have to keep a lot of cash in the envelopes.Whichever of the methods you choose, remember that it has to fit your life-style. Otherwise you will fall into the same trap many people do, that makes them give up on following their budget.

Global Warming and Ockham's Razor
In the Fourteenth Century, a Franciscan friar named William of Ochkam proposed a new way of looking at the world. Known today as "Ockham's Razor," his approach tried to cut through the complexities and convolutions of the Scholastic school of philosophy by suggesting that all else being equal, the simplest explanation for a phenomenon is probably the correct one.Like many other dangerous thinkers of the Renaissance--including such impious malcontents as Galileo and Copernicus--William of Ockham was ultimately charged with heresy. This fate is all too familiar to anyone who has tried bringing logic to bear upon arguments that are being waged emotionally. And, unfortunately, charges of heresy are not mere relics of history. We see similar charges made today against many whose only crime is being on the wrong side of a political debate--some of which are questions that, like the conception of the Universe in earlier days, are questions of science rather than matters of faith.Our Place in the Universe: The Renaissance Confronts CopernicusIn the days of Copernicus, conventional wisdom placed the Earth at the center of the Universe (since God would never place us anywhere else), since every object in the heavens moved around us in the sky. Global Warming Is It Real? It seems as if every time you turn on the television, listen to the radio or read newspapers and magazines, there is someone telling you about global warming. Stopping Global Warming Global Warming is a word that you will come across on any news channel or newspaper or magazine these days. Global warming simply means the presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere Canada Goose 7950M beyond the permissible limits. CIA And The Global Warming Issue It seems that Democrats are coming close to achieving the goal to categorize global warming transformation as a "national security" concern. Democrats are making effort to include language in current year?s Intelligence Authorization bill. It would allow intelligence agencies to devote a piece of their resources to learn the "threat" to "national security" from climate change or global warming. Global Warming Explained Global warming is thought of as one of the biggest threats to world security in modern times, and it is arguably already taking its toll in our weather system. By a combination of natural cyclical progression, and the impact of human behaviour and activity over the last century, the Earth is steadily seeing the effects of the global warming phenomenon. But what exactly is global warming, and exactly what impact could it have on our environment?But astronomers could tell that the paths taken by the planets seemed to move in uneven patterns across the sky--some, weaving their way through the night sky, while others occasionally crossed their own pathways while performing slow-motion loops. In the days before satellites and advanced rocket science, this offered two alternative explanations to the people of the Renaissance:Alternative A (favored by Copernicus and Galileo): If the Sun is in the center--and all the planets rotate around the Sun, rather than the Earth--then everything lines up, and the planets' motions are explained.Alternative B: If the Earth is in the center of the Universe, then for some reason not mentioned in the Bible, the planets are whirling in circles as they move around the Earth.The conclusion suggested by Ockham's Razor is that either the Sun is in the middle, or something is missing from the puzzle that we don't understand.The conclusion of the Church--the political Orthodoxy of the day--was that since we were obviously the center of Creation, the subject was not open to debate and the astronomers were obviously heretics for suggesting otherwise.From our perch in the 21st Century, we scoff at the early Church for its pronouncements, and salute Galileo and Copernicus for their vision and dedication to scientific truth. But we don't have to look far to see that while we are more scientifically advanced than our Renaissance ancestors, we haven't learned much from their experience. For proof, we only need to look at one of today's hottest issues--the heat generated by our concerns over global warning.

The Swimming Pool: A Gift for Summer
In tropical and warm areas of the world, there is a surplus of places to swim in, including a plethora of beautiful beaches, surrounded as the islands are with the waters of the oceans and seas. Places in the California, Bahamas, Hawaii, and South East Asia, provide the best locations for leisure. Under swinging trees, one could enjoy the great expanse of fresh blue water. But one must wonder: there are resorts and club-houses visited by armies of vacationers for their sprawling array of inground swimming pools. Quite rarely, a swimming pool zone could be found lying in wait at the local home-owner's back yard, and one, who just as rarely, ever leaves his home for the beach.Living in a warm climate can oftentimes leave one aching for a nice dip, and more often than not, people clamber onto buses and cars to leave for exotic places to slake this desire. But for the lucky owner of a pool, a few swimming pool toys, lemonade, and a chair under the shade of a tree, could be just as good. During the summer days, it is usually best to shed one's clothes for swimsuits during the late afternoons, or during the evenings. It is at these times that the air is fairly cool, and one can go for a dip in relative contentment. Canada Goose 2832L Late evening swims are great, too, provided that you have enough lighting. Professional swimmers, however, may find that a swimming pool in their back yard just might not cut it. There are length requirements and certainly, sports complexes around the city could very well provide the pool outfit they need. These places are usually open on early mornings, and stay open well into the night. A pool owner can settle for a good swimming pool design, selecting a rather showy display of optics beneath the cool surface of a well-maintained tub or simply, a nondescript square in which to frolic in. But hospitality and warmth could be expressed in tile design, or even, pool liner. Swimming pool liner can play a huge part in aesthetics, enticing a swimmer to come-hither or to step farther! But most especially, it plays a part in swimming pool durability, allowing you to either enjoy your pool for longer periods, or leaving you with longer periods of maintenance instead.Some homeowners may find that a fiberglass swimming pool is a simple solution to a sweltering, tropical dilemma. It could simply be lowered into a hole dug-up in someone's garden.

For most people, it's the water that counts and a swimming pool, by no mean feat, could very well make or break a hot summer vacation.Indeed, people in a country gifted with a wondrous array of beaches would want a swimming pool. Swimming pools come with the gift of convenience and even more importantly, it can be a conduit of expression. It is, to the hospitable swimming enthusiast, a way of getting people together under his roof, for his enjoyment and theirs.

Compare down jacket with wool coat
The first point is weight. Compared with down, wool is a heavy fabric. It is the denseness of the fibers, however, that provide the degree of warmth offered by wool. Cold winter winds won't penetrate this material, keeping the wearer warm and toasty. However, wool, for all its heaviness, is a relatively thin choice for a coat. If you're looking for a dress coat that will lie close to the body, wool is your choice. Down, on the other hand is a filling for a coat, not the entire fabric. Canada Goose Expedition Parka It is often encased in a synthetic material and, while it is also warm, can be very bulky. Women's down coats are sometimes referred to as "puffer coats," Moncler as these coast tend to bulk up the body's appearance, making it seem puffy.The second point is Allergies. Since both materials are natural, coming from animals, you may find that you have an allergy to one or both. An allergic reaction to either material will knock wool or down right off your winter coat shopping list, regardless of how warm either one might keep you. Wool allergies come from contact between the fabric and your skin and should show up almost immediately as an itchy rash. Canada Goose Sale An allergy to down can manifest as a skin rash, but also as itchy, watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, coughing and trouble breathing. No matter how warm, you'll want to mark wool or down off your list if you find you are allergic to either one. One of wool's main claims to fame is its ability to keep the skin dry when it gets wet. The water tends to stay on the outside of the fabric -- as it does on its four-legged wearers in the wild. Since water does not penetrate the fabric easily, you will stay warm and dry even when the wool becomes wet. On the other hand, down absorbs water and does not dry very quickly. If your winter coat requirements include exposure to wet conditions, consider the benefits of selecting a wool instead of a down coat. No matter how warm you may be when you set out, once the wet weather sets in, the wool coat will feel warmer, as it will keep you drier.Coats are available that combine these two advantageous materials in one. Jos. A. Banks offers a reversible men's jacket. One side is faced with wool and the other is down. Depending upon weather conditions or other circumstances, you can opt for which side you will show the world. Canada Goose Jakke Or, consider combining wool and down by dressing in layers.

Spring is your season if you are one of those women with good legs. The latest trend on the catwalk are short shorts from tap pants to boy shorts and hot pants.A huge fashion craze in the '70s, these short shorts are a hit once again and will surely have everyone scampering towards their favorite gyms and tanning salons.While shorts are commonly seen as gym wear, or simply for casual outings, this spring's fashion lines offer something for play, work and even evening wear. Coming in fabrics from traditional to floral patterns normally found in skirts and dresses and cut in various ways, these shorts won't just bring back a beloved classic, it will also show the immediate future of fashion.Not so much as a figure hugger with turned-up cuffs or ruffled edges which are usually no more than two inches down the thigh, these shorts are called "hot pantaloons" or tap pants. They can be worn under slouchy tops or blazers for a chic look. To make you look more sophisticated, use nude or neutral tones.Having what is called a negative hemline which could potentially show some bun, Moncler jakke basic hot pants look like a wholesome underwear. Picture pinups from the '40s and '50s or even bathing suits from that era. Now they can be high-waisted for a vintage look, or sequined and studded for evening wear. To avoid looking like you forgot to wear pants or just rushed out of the gym, pair them with a classic blouse or jacket.In warmer temperatures, you wouldn't see shorter shorts with over-the-knee boots that were made for the fall and winter. For a more shapely look on your legs, wear heels. Even without tall heels, the shorts alone would provide enough sex appeal, but for the evening you might want to go a little higher. For a classic and casual look, go for a modest heel and a sling-back bag.Boy shorts have a neutral hemline and usually sit below the waist. Pair them with denim and you have the perfect spring look for more casual outings. Daisy Duke isn't the only one who could pull this off. Top them off with a loose t-shirt, add big bracelets and finish off with a pair of flats or sneakers to add a twist on the old favorite.Many fashion designers have included retro short shorts in their collections this spring. Your local department store might tone it down a bit but be ready to watch the hemlines rise. These style might look fabulous on well-toned celebrities and lucky teenagers but this look is not for everyone.You're better off looking for another spring style if you're uncomfortable with the look or if your body is not suited for it, even if this trend is getting a lot of attention. Remember, except for gymnastics and dance, hot pants have been gone a long time and you can outlast them if need be.

Cairo filled with foreigners
Railways were laid. The Suez Canal dug. Colonial ambition surged. And the Winter Palace would come to cater to all whims, confirming status and identity in a land of mummified novelty. The lustre endures. "Thank you for a magnificent stay, it was all that we had been led to expect," write Tony and Cherie Blair in the gilded hotel guest book. Ambassadors, dukes, princes, Hollywood starlets and the World Bank president have all left handwritten praises. Condoleezza Rice writes: "I look forward to returning to this beautiful, historic hotel." No sooner have we arrived and I want never to leave. At reception we sip glasses of karkaday, a hibiscus-flower tea, sugary-sweet and served chilled in the desert's eternal sunshine. I could spend all morning on the brocade upholstery, spellbound by a grand marble staircase and its Art Nouveau cast-iron balustrade, awfully pleased to have booked two nights in this heirloom."Would you like to go out to the garden?" a silver-haired Englishman asks his wife. Her name is Rosie and she's in a floral-print summer dress. He wears a silk cravat with a pink shirt and white pants. They walk the lobby's floor together with all the aplomb of a couple off to a society ball. Truth be told, I have no savoir-faire for such aristocratic occasions. Not that it matters when a porter in a red jacket and black fez shares the news. We've been upgraded to room 327, King Farouk's top-floor suite where the last of the khedive leaders that ruled the British condominium of Egypt and Sudan resided variously from 1936 until 1952, when he abdicated and fled on the royal yacht to Monaco. The privilege usually costs €468 ($814) a night for foreigners (Egyptians pay half price) and comes with polished walnut furniture, elaborate window drapery with tasselled ties and a gilded rococo coffee table. Moncler jackets The bed, naturally, is king size. The room is enormous; a good thing considering the size of the flat-screen TV. We feel like royalty. Yet, my girlfriend still hangs four pairs of wet knickers in the shower and I wash socks in the sink. Nicolas Sarkozy has bedded down across the corridor in the presidential suite ($1800 a night) with Carla Bruni. The French leader took the former model on a public first date to Disneyland in Paris. Two weeks later, at Christmas, they came here to indulge, presumably, in the pleasures well-heeled travellers have always sought in the land of Nefertiti and Cleopatra. To justify such extravagance abroad – the ballrooms and crystal chandeliers, the silver service fit for a pharaoh or viceroy, or a Cairo princess – we intend to enjoy every minute: draw a bath deep enough to drain the Nile; lounge in white Egyptian cotton robes; call on the shoe-shine boy; pinch the Hermes toiletries."The whole world has heard about Egypt and dreams of one day coming to Egypt," says Jacques Serpollier, a Frenchman in silver cufflinks and a pinstripe suit and the proud manager of the Sofitel luxury hotel."About 80 per cent of the archaeological monuments on the planet are in Egypt and most of them are here in Luxor."

Whale watching on the Sunshine Coast: my humps
On board Steve's Whale OneThe whale-watching boat, Steve's Whale One Photo: Christine Kellett With more than 10,000 humpback whales expected to pass by the Sunshine Coast on their annual migration this year, we're bound to see some of them, right?7.17am: Lutwyche Road, leaving Brisbane. Inbound traffic slowed to a crawl as I sail through three green lights in a row and contemplate the day's 'work' ahead: whale watching on Steve Irwin's 20-metre catamaran Whale One as part of a media preview. Smile smugly over reports of a bread truck stuck under a bridge at Graceville and change lanes because I can.8.25am: Bruce Highway. All lanes at a standstill. Roadworks. Advertisement: Story continues below 8.51am: Panic. Did that exit sign read 'Brisbane Road' or just 'Brisbane'? Australia Zoo email warns boat will leave 'at 9am SHARP.'9.25am: Still waiting on Mooloolaba Wharf with assembled media and guests. Person inside a giant whale suit waves cheerfully from bow of boat - the only one of us dressed appropriately for the frigid conditions.9.28am: Tin runabout arrives, commandeered by a small pirate and his female crew. Turns out to be Robert Irwin, his mother, sister and an Australia Zoo handler in nautical costume. All board Whale One to officially launch the Sunshine Coast whale watching season. Terri promises us a free lunch if we don't see any and then gets back on the tinny to Moncler jakker take the children to school. Robert tries to put life jacket on backwards, demonstrating why he is yet to win a Daytime Emmy.9.48am: Shepherded onto boat by small army (navy?) of Australia Zoo handlers all in khaki trousers. Photographer asks: "Who's watching the zoo?"9.58am: Cruising out of Mooloolaba canal. Push past a bunch of weakly-constituted fellow watchers queuing for seasickness tablets on my way to the complimentary biscuit tray, where a second queue of journalists has already formed.10.22am: Open sea. No sign of whales yet, but difficult to tell while being tossed around in the choppy conditions. Captain Shane says humpbacks are "naturally inquisitive".10.56am: Someone spots a blow spout six nautical miles from the coast. Wait 10 minutes in almost total silence but turns out to be nothing. Captain Shane says humpbacks are "elusive creatures".11.20am: Heading for humpback highway, about 10 nautical miles from shore, where chances are supposed to be better. Three people have turned green and are sheltering from the sea spray inside lower deck of boat, which is starting to feel like a height-restricted ride at Dreamworld or the drum of a Fisher and Paykel top loader. Suspect more than one will be riding the vom train home.11.55am: Our first sighting. A stone-coloured lump with a dorsal fin surfaces 150 metres away on starboard side, but quickly disappears. Then a tail. My stomach does a quick flip-flop, but this may be the fault of a rogue wave. Gasps from the boat as two more whales are spotted on the horizon, but me and the Canon are not quick enough.12.05pm: Surprise whale fact: blue whales are so big they have an artery "that a small child could fall down". Suddenly, Jonah's biblical ordeal doesn't seem quite so far-fetched.12.15pm: Hoping to be mugged on port side, which in whale-watch parlance, means to be examined up-close by a whale that has approached the boat. Captain Shane has spotted a pod of three up ahead and informs us they may be engaged in some mating activity. Not sure if I will be able to look them in the eye if this turns out to be the case. He opens up the throttle and we go over to intrude.12.20pm: Crowd on lower deck is growing, where Quells are being popped like Smarties and one person is lying slumped in a chair. Starting to regret that drive-thru bacon and egg McMuffin.12.22pm: Pod of three turns out to be a party of five, each bobbing up for air in sequence; three then one, then another. The bow is buzzing as we all lean over the rails (think Kate Winslet with a digital camera) to get closer. The woman next to me - Cybershot poised - mutters "come on babies" and then it happens; less than 150 metres away a humpback launches itself from the water, its barnacled bulk twisting and arching in a 180-degree back-flip. The spectacle is called breaching, and within minutes, all five of them are at it. Spray shoots skyward like fireworks as the whales hit the water, which is turned turquoise against their exposed white bellies. Sixty-five tonnes in all. Magnificent.12.46pm: I'm machine-gunning anything that moves when it occurs I may be having a once-in-a-lifetime whale encounter entirely through the lens of a digital camera. Look around and notice everyone else is doing exactly the same. Decide this is stupid and holster the thing for a minute to enjoy the experience as my ancestors would have done, in the days before 1-gig memory cards were invented.1.13pm: Captain Shane says humpbacks can follow the same pattern of behaviour for hours, as ours are doing now. Spouting, bobbing, bobbing, diving and then an explosive, 2000-calorie-burning breach. He suspects a group of four blokes is showing off in front of a sheila, who must be plus-sized as - in a refreshing contrast to our own dating scene - fat whales are considered tres hot. We follow them for a while, but the flash of their tails signals a deep dive and we don't see them again for some time.1.28pm: I let the profession down by managing only a single roast beef roll at the all-you-can-eat lunch buffet. Regret queuing for Arnott's Creams instead of Quells.1.35pm: Captain Shane hangs a u-turn and warns watchers on the bow they are likely to get wet because the journey back "may be a bit rough".1.50pm: First sighting of a sick bag. Port side.1.55pm: Did I mention I should have taken some Quells?2.45pm: Hobble down gangway towards car park and a 100-kilometre drive back to Brisbane, fighting the urge to dispose of said roast beef roll in a potted palm.5pm: Home for a lie down. Upload photos and instantly forget churning stomach. Can't believe I was there. Magnificent.

Lindsay Lohan begins jail term, sentenced shrinks to 14 days
Lindsay Lohan began her 90-day jail term Tuesday but the troubled Hollywood starlet's sentence was quickly slashed to 14 days, police said.An "extremely cooperative" Lohan was booked into Lynwood correctional facility shortly after 10:00 am (1700 GMT) Tuesday, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore told reporters.But no sooner had she donned jail garb and been put behind bars in a nine-square-meter (98-square-foot) cell than Whitmore said the actress's sentence would be reduced to just 14 days, with her release set for August 2. Advertisement: Story continues below Lohan, 24, was whisked without comment into a Beverly Hills courtroom, where she was put in handcuffs and transported to Lynwood to begin her sentence for violating parole after a 2007 drunk driving conviction.TV helicopters chased the police car taking the actress and model, who was dressed in jeans and a black leather jacket, before she finally disappeared through the gates of the correctional facility at Lynwood, in the southern outskirts of Los Angeles.Media scrums and supporters were also at the court where Lohan appeared before Judge Marsha Revel to report for her sentence.She was accompanied by her lawyer Veste moncler Shawn Chapman Holley, rather than attorney to the stars Robert Shapiro, as had been expected."We love you Lindsay!" her father, Michael Lohan, shouted out. One fan bore a T-shirt with Lohan's picture and the inscription "Linnocent." Others threw gold confetti in her path.Revel took little time on the formalities of confirming the 90-day sentence she imposed July 6 for Lohan's parole violation following the 2007 DUI conviction.Lohan had been convicted of missing seven classes of a mandatory 90-day, in-patient substance abuse program.While she broke down in tears at that earlier court appearance, Lohan seemed composed and resigned Tuesday.Life in the Century Regional Detention Facility will have none of the luxuries usually available to Lohan, who began as a child actress and was considered a serious star in the making before becoming known chiefly for substance abuse, partying and appearances in the tabloids.Paris Hilton is among other celebrities who have been incarcerated at the Lynwood prison and experts said wardens would carefully protect Lohan from the kind of violence common behind bars."People with notoriety are kept away" from the general jail population for security purposes, said Whitmore.Authorities had said her actual time served could be as little as one-fourth of the sentence, given California's massive jail overcrowding and the relatively minor nature of her infractions.Provided she behaves in prison, she'll be out well ahead of the September premier of her latest movie, the action thriller "Machete."Lohan, who starred in the 1998 film "The Parent Trap" and 2003's "Freaky Friday," was arrested in May 2007 after crashing her Mercedes in Beverly Hills.After a stay in rehab, the star of "Mean Girls" and other hit films was caught two months later for drunk driving and cocaine possession. At the time, she spent a mere 84 minutes in jail.The latest calamity for Lohan did not dent the enthusiasm of fans who remember her for a series of promising roles and celeb-page glamor."I'm here because Lindsay deserves the support of everyone," Hollywood autograph hunter Jake Byrd said.

Australian National Retailers Association chief Margy Osmond
Financial turmoilRBA governor Glenn Stevens noted that recent sharp moves Moncler Online on financial markets were likely to act as a drag on Australia's economy."The effects of the recent turmoil on confidence may result in a period of precautionary behaviour by firms and households," he said in a statement accompanying today's decision.Employment conditions at home have softened and inflation figures have been moderate, giving the RBA room for today's rate cut, Mr Stevens said."Over the past year, the board has maintained a mildly restrictive stance of monetary policy, in view of its concerns about inflation," he said. "With overall growth moderate, inflation now likely to be close to target and confidence subdued outside the resources sector, the board concluded that a more neutral stance of monetary policy would now be consistent with achieving sustainable growth and 2-3 per cent inflation over time."Europe debtSince August, financial markets have plunged then rebounded as fears about a default on sovereign debts by Greece or other European nations flared then fizzled. A deal hammered out by European Union leaders included writedowns of 50 per cent for holders of Greek debt, and the creation a 1-trillion euro ($1.3 trillion) rescue fund helped calm those concerns for now.Still, markets remain sensitive to the prospects of other countries falling into similar troubles as Greece, with Italy and Spain among the leading contenders. Those worries mean the RBA's job in easing interest rates to bolster local confidence may not be done, analysts said."Whilst the bank acknowledged the recently improvement in global financial markets, the bank warns that it is likely to be some time yet before Moncler Women Jackets concerns about the European situation can definitively be laid to rest," said 4Cast Ltd analyst Celeste Tay. "The bank appears slightly concerned about the knock-on effects that this will have on sentiment, especially through the wealth channels. "As such, we see part of the reason behind today's cut was to deliver an added boost to confidence," she said. Retailers, which have struggled as consumers have pared local spending in favour of overseas travel and shopping this year, cheered the decision coming ahead of the crucial Christmas shopping season. "Retail in Australia needs this boost, particularly going into Christmas 2011, a vital holiday period for the sector," said Australian National Retailers Association chief Margy Osmond."After a year where retail figures have hovered around a third of the usual growth rate, despite no movement on interest rates for the past 12 months, retailers have been crying out for some assistance from the central bank."The housing sector will also applaud today's move. Figures out today showed house prices in the September quarter fell the most since the global financial crisis, while new home sales had their worst month in 10 years.Countering those areas of weakness is the ongoing mining boom, with investments in the pipeline worth an estimated $430 billion.The RBA noted that recent falls in commodity prices meant that Australia's terms of trade - the relative prices of our exports versus import costs - have now peaked. While they will "decline somewhat in the near term", the RBA noted, they "remain very high."ExpectationsThe Reserve Bank had stoked expectations of a rate cut with officials in recent weeks saying they had room to move if needed to bolster the economy, particularly if inflation figures remained subdued.Last week, core inflation data - the measure Moncler Mens Coats watched by the RBA - slowed to 0.3 per cent in the September quarter, the weakest pace in 14 years.Financial markets were earlier today pricing in four cuts of today's size over the next 12 months, with three more now to come. That estimate remains little changed after the verdict, with another 90 basis points in cuts now expected over the year.A survey by Bloomberg found 16 of 27 economists had tipped the bank would slice rates by 25 basis points.czappone@fairfax.com.au with Reuters, AAPA rate cut equals about $46 less in monthly mortgage repayments on the average $300,000 loans carried over 25 years. Last week, core inflation data - the measure watched by the RBA - slowed to 0.3 per cent, the weakest pace in 14 years, giving the Reserve Board leeway to cut rates. Conditions in the local and global economy on the other hand continue to present a mixed case about the growth and inflation prospects the central bank monitors. Credit growth has slowed over the year but has shown signs of picking up recently. Retail sales and consumer confidence have been positive for two months running, while recent data from the US has shown improvements there. Closer to home, China's expansion has sent out a few worrying signals about credit bubbles or weaker demand for Australian commodities. Yet the European debt crisis continues to dominate headlines with sentiment alternating between extreme fear and hope for a lasting resolution to the problems.

Lawrence O'Donnell Tears Up While Emotionally Defending Planned Parenthood In Government Shutdown Fight
Lawrence O'Donnell mounted a highly emotional and personal defense of Planned Moncler Outlet Parenthood on his Friday show. Until a government shutdown was narrowly averted on Friday night, the organization's federal funding had been the last major obstacle to a budget deal between Republicans and Democrats.O'Donnell first zeroed in on Sen. Jon Kyl's assertion (which he was later forced to retract) that 90 percent of Planned Parenthood's services are abortion related. He called Kyl a "nice guy" who had told a "horrible lie" that he said was fed to him by "fanatical enemies of Planned Parenthood who hate the idea that the word 'planned' should ever come before the word 'parenthood.'"O'Donnell then showed charts which demonstrated that, actually, only Moncler Kids around three percent of the organization's resources go towards abortion services, with the rest going to various screening and sexual health services. (None of the abortion services are funded with federal money either.) He said that Kyl's false statement would not be forgotten. "Lies that big...do not go unnoticed in the Senate," he said. "Jon Kyl will never again be trusted by Senators, including Republican Senators, as a source of reliable facts."O'Donnell then turned to an email which he said came from a friend of his who used Planned Parenthood. He read the email out from his Blackberry, and as he did so, his hands, and his voice, started shaking with emotion. The friend's email recounted her dire financial straits and history of medical illnesses. Planned Parenthood, she wrote, was the place she went for her birth control and her cancer screenings, and through them, she said, she was able to get multiple mammograms."It's terrifying to think that with lack of funds, millions of women would not have access to this kind of care," the friend wrote. "I can't Moncler Men Jackets imagine what I would do without Planned Parenthood. Talking about what they do is part of your job right now...please yell some sense into these people."As O'Donnell said those last words, his voice broke perceptibly, and he dropped the Blackberry shaking in his hands and turned away from the camera.WATCH:Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy.

Don't Be Beaten By The Ink Cartridge
If there's one thing guaranteed to flummox half the office staff for a whole morning, Moncler Store it's going to be the changing of an ink cartridge in a printer or copier. God forbid you should be the one on the printer when the light comes on to tell you the ink cartridge is running low!If this is you, then there are two options. You can either a) do what men do and retreat, whistling, as if you changed your mind and didn't want to print after all or b) take the bull by the horns, so to speak, and attempt to change the ink cartridge yourself.How difficult can it be, I hear you ask. Well, first you have to find the right flap. You will go through a sequence of flaps from paper feeder through to paper storage to one that displays all the scary inner workings of a printer. Eventually, you will find a flap with idiot instructions on the inside. This will be a simple drawing of how to change an ink cartridge.Except, of course, the picture won't represent anything that looks like your printer unless you tilt your head upside down, stand on one leg and squint. You begin by reading the written instructions in conjunction with trying to associate the pictures to what appears before you, swiftly giving up the latter. Basically, it will tell you to pop one out and pop the other in.What it doesn't tell you is that it will take a degree in mechanics to get this last one out! Operations that are Womens Moncler Jackets meant to be simple will need to be carried out by the flick of several small plastic clips which will immediately snap off in your fingers leaving the cartridge well and truly wedged. After a spell of trying to do it properly, you will then resort to wedging in plastic rulers and pens in an attempt to prize it from its location.Bits of snapped off stationary are often responsible for printer blockages and will lead to some very loud tut tutting by printer engineers who come out on expensive call, amid what they would have you believe is a very busy schedule, and who will make it look easy. They will pick out the bits of pen, change the cartridge, look at you like you are dense and charge you an extortionate fee for the trouble.To avoid this, most office staff will learn quickly from the pen incident and in future continue attempts at the instructions. Any fly on any office wall will tell you that you can sit back and watch one person struggling with cartridge replacement on a printer for a short period and they will soon be joined by a plethora of people that all know how to do it."Come here, let me have a go" is an oft bandied about phrase. They will do exactly the same as the last attemptee, but help by reading the instructions louder and slower. If it's a man looking to help a damsel in distress he will take off his jacket, roll up his sleeves and go in like he's about to perform brain surgery, demanding ruler, pen, any long, strong object and a swab for the sweat on his forehead.Whenever an ink cartridge needs replacing, the simple answer is to call the oldest, most experienced woman in the office. With an air of confidence she will click, slap and generally Moncler Mens Coats be pretty heavy handed with various parts of the printer in a well practiced sequence. You will have fresh ink in no time with barely a drop of spillage.

What To Wear On A Cruise Made Easy
Don't know what it is about a cruise that causes some to pack as if they were going Moncler Jackets for on a six month stay on the Space Station. But since some first time cruisers pack twice what they need, they surely do not want for things to wear. Which just goes to show they lack awareness of what to wear on a cruise.For sure it helps if you know what to expect. And if you've been on a cruise before you're more aware of that than someone leaving the dock for the first time. Since as a seasoned cruiser you know what to wear on a cruise. Or at least should know what is accepted.Of course for some the best part of any cruise get away is the build up to your departure date. Looking forward to that and planning what to bring and so forth is more than half the fun for them. And if that's you lets not put a damper on your enthusiasm. It is just that there is truth to the statement She who packs light packs best".Then too, there are those who feel that since you only have to unpack once, what's a few more things? Aside from the space they take up in your probably less-than-spacious cabin, and the extra piece of luggage or two, probably not much. But why Moncler Men Jackets bother when you don't have to?So enough build up already. Let's cut to the chase.As I said when packing for a cruise Less Is More".Then too you really don't need to bring something - just in case. Should you not be certain whether or not you'll need something, simply do not pack it. You can generally pick up anything critical to life as you know it in port. So another rule is "When in doubt leave it out" - of the suitcase.Naturally what you will be wearing also depends on the published dress code. On most cruises what you'll be expected to wear to dinner is spelled out for you. It may be all formal wear. Or a blend of causal and formal with casual at times meaning shorts are permitted - or not.Jeans are usually not worn. Particularly in the dining room. There you may find them to be taboo. Besides you are better off with clothes you can mix and match for different looks. For the gals tops and skirts. While guys can do the same with shirts and lightweight trousers.Finally what to wear on a cruise also comes down to on where you'll be. Those on a ship near Alaska won't be dressed the same as someone cruising the Mediterranean. For the former a coat with a removable liner would be good to have. Yet that's not a good choice for Greece. There a light nylon Womens Moncler Jackets could come in handy.Anyway you should have a bit of a better idea of what to wear on a cruise.
