The "Does Wegmans Rule?" Experiment
2008-06-17 09:22:00 I enjoy going to grocery stores. I think this may be some type of family disorder or just in our genes or both. Whenever we went on a family vacation, my dad would take us to the local grocery store to take a look around to compare the stores to those in Pittsburgh. He would also search for Hamburger Helper?s Rice Oriental. During our April vacation in Seattle, we went to Uwajimaya, one of the largest Asian grocery retailers in the Pacific Northwest. In addition, one of the highlights of our Alaskan cruise four years ago was stopping into a small grocery store in Skagway. (They also sold Hamburger Helper?s Rice Oriental.) Based on my lifetime experience of visiting grocery stores, I feel like I am qualified (at least in my mind) to state that Wegmans is the greatest grocery store of all time.Last week, Lacochran?s Bloggery, which has become one of my favorite daily reads, wrote a post about a rather interesting experience she had at her local Shopper?s supermarket. Almost co...

bad days, thoroughbreds and mules
2008-06-04 20:08:00 After a few days of self discovery, coaching, coaching, and more coaching I have come to a few realizations:Dianna had a funny at the end of our call Monday: "You can tap a thoroughbred on the rear and it will go 0-90 real quick and never quit running. But you can beat a mule over and over and it still won't budge."In fact, I may care more about your business than you do. I'm letting that go.Every little bit we accomplish, makes a BIG difference.My goal is to empower you to move you in the direction of your dreams....and if those dreams are not formed, my goal is to move you in the direction of considering and discovering what they may be.I made the mistake of letting others non-motivation affect my motivation.Thanks for that too, Dianna, my coach!

Why The Pattern Day Trader Rule Proves The SEC Rivals Osama Bin Laden In Te
2008-06-04 19:25:00 Yup I said it. While making a nice quick 5+% American profit, or $350ish, in an hour on my LGDI trade a few weeks ago, my blood boiled over due to the missed opportunities caused by the SEC’s pattern day trading rule. And while I’ve attacked it in the past, there was no formal summary post that explained all my key points. Considering how many stocks are in play today and the fact that I am forced to ignore 99% of them, it’s time I unleash this fury. The formal definition of this inane rule is HERE, and once you read it, you’ll begin to understand why I call it the Reign Of Terror Rule. In fact, I’ve got an entire category devoted to it as I’ve documented each and every time it’s interfered with my trading since I began TIM in November 2007. Basically, if your trading account is below $25,000—as are the accounts of so many poor people out there—you can only day trade (meaning in and out the same day) 4 times per week. If you trade more than that, you get flagged as...

Rule of 78 for Car Loans
2008-06-03 02:10:00 The Rule of 78 is a method of allocating a loan’s interest and principal. The Hire Purchase Act requires the use of the Rule of 78 for car loans. For any standard car loan scheme, you are required to pay all the principal and interest that would have accrued over the entire loan period. However, in the event you decide to repay the outstanding loan before the loan period ends, you will receive a rebate on the interest. The interest rebate will be calculated using the method of Rule of 78 less 20 per cent. This is to cover some of the costs that the bank will incur when a loan is repaid early. Under the Rule of 78, you work out the rebate using the following formula: Rebate of interest = [n (n+1)/N (N + 1)] x TI, where n = The number of months remaining on the loan N = The total loan period TI = The total interest charged over the period of the loan This method enables you to calculate how much interest you will get back, and the total amount you need to pay the bank if yo...

Indonesian energy minister can't rule out more fuel price increases
2008-06-02 09:09:00 Indonesia cannot rule out further increases in fuel prices before the 2009 presidential elections, Energy Minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro said on Sunday, because of the impact of fuel subsidies on the budget.The government raised fuel prices by almost 30 percent last month, sparking protests in a country where millions are already suffering from rising energy and food costs.While Indonesia still has some of the lowest fuel prices in Asia, the issue of fuel subsidies is politically sensitive given Indonesia is due to hold parliamentary and presidential elections next year."The increase is about fairness. Subsidized fuels have been enjoyed by the haves," rather than the have-nots, Yusgiantoro said on the sidelines of the Coaltrans Asia Conference on the resort island of Bali.Asked whether the government could guarantee there would be no more increases in fuel prices before the next presidential election due by mid-2009, Yusgiantoro said that was not possible."We cannot guarantee, we neve...

I Rule: Awards
2008-05-26 20:51:00 I think everyone that reads my blog is a super star to some degree. First, they have put up with how quirky it is. Slow page loading times (a thing of the past I hope, see next post) and obnoxious colors--not to mention how stuck on myself (rightly so) I am. So, if you are reading this, take a bow. Now, there are some elite Joeprah followers that not only stomach my daily diatribe, but they actually think it to be noteworthy--so noteworthy in fact, that they have deemed it acceptable to don me with awards. I would like to call these folks Super-Dee-Duper-Stars. First, I got a really cool mention from Penny over at Cafe at the End of the Universe (http://cafeendofuniverse.blogs-pot.com/), then HuckDoll (http://huckdoll.blogspot.com/)-, this was followed by Christine at Serenity How (http://serenityhow.com/) recognizing my awesomeness, and, to top it off, not one but two awards.

Golden Rule(s) for Living in Japan
2008-05-24 02:14:00 ???????????Living in a foreign country requires adjustments, some minor, some not so minor.Unless you live in a diplomatic compound or in an area full of other expatriates, your neighbors will have different ideas of how to live, what is (in)appropriate, the done thing, etc. This may result in conflict.In Japan, with a high population density and somewhat complicated interpersonal relations, this takes on even greater importance.Here then is a short, arbitrary list of suggestions for making life in Japan smoother. This is especially true if you live in a neighborhood as opposed to a "mansion" (apartment in a large building).1) ???aisatsu?GreetingsAlways greet your neighbors. A simple ??????????ohayo gozaimasu, "good morning"?goes a long way. Even if you speak no Japanese, learn and use simple greetings.2) ????shizuka ni?Keep it quietNo piano practice after 8 pm.

Home Rule
2008-05-23 14:51:00 West Virginia has one of the most centralized governments in the country. That's why Bridgeport, Charleston, Huntington and Wheeling jumped at the chance to join a five-year "home rule" pilot project.As The Associated Press reports, "Bridgeport can now participate in public school projects, increase some licensing fees and issue its own tax increment financing. Huntington can impose an occupational tax and Charleston, a health-care provider tax, among other things. Those two cities and Wheeling also were given greater flexibility to address dilapidated property."Public Broadcasting also highlights (with audio) the experiment granting these cities modest additional powers.Further details about their communities' approach to home rule come from the Herald-Dispatch of Huntington, The Intelligencer of Wheeling and The Charleston Gazette.

Reader Question: Rule of Thirds
2008-05-21 01:46:00 I recently received a question from a reader in response to my 8 Tips to Better Photo Composition that I wanted to address.Jill - This is a great article! Thanks! I have one more question - it may be kind of silly, but how does the rule of thirds apply to close ups of people? I was trying to take a look at the witch photo to see how it would apply. I was also looking at the one of your little girl on the steps in the pink coat to see how it could apply here as well? Any help would be great! BeckyThanks for the great question, Becky!As for the first part of your question, it is still a good idea to implement the rule of thirds when taking close ups of people. The eyes are key to any good portrait, regardless if your subject is looking at the camera or not. Generally, the trick with portraits is to get the eyes on or slightly above the upper third line. So, in the witch photo referenced (below), I placed my daughter's beautiful little lashes near that upper third line. As for the sec...
