I came across this site where you can print coupons for all kinds of
everyday products from major and local retailers. I just had to share
this with people. In this economy I could use all the savings I can
get. Hope this is of some value to you.

Have a great day!

  Article: McMansions the new slums?

I read a scary/interesting article in Atlantic Monthly today, wherein the author predicts that today's
large detached homes in the outer suburbs will be tomorrow's slums. At first I thought, "What, no
way", but then I read the article. Here's a link to it:

  Top 10 Mistakes Made When Applying for a Business Loan

Top 10 Mistakes Made When Applying for a Business Loan

Whether you're applying for a business loan or a personal loan, there
are common mistakes that can hinder the process. Below are 10 of the
most common mistakes made when applying for a loan.

1. Not knowing your credit rating. Before you apply for a loan, you
need to know where you stand. Get copies of your credit scores from
the three major credit bureaus so you will know if you're likely to
get the loan approved.

  Extended warranty on TV         


Author: Steve
Date: Feb 29, 2008 12:39

Excerpts from http://www.gripe2ed.com/scoop/story/2008/2/28/1371/09249

I've been a TV servicer for 35 years and an independent factory
authorized servicer for most of that time. In the past, my profession
never recommended extended warranties, since they would typically cost
more than one or two repairs.

There was a change that took place around 2000-02. The manufacturers
responded to pressure from dealers and customers, and redesigned TVs
to be home repairable by exchanging circuit boards. The problem is
that no one builds new boards for old sets, and when they run out
(18-24 months) the TV becomes unrepairable.

The lifespan of TVs used to be about fifteen years, but that is no
longer the case. Most servicers feel that the lifespan of the newer
models will be about five years, and that any repair after about two
years will result in replacement rather than repair.

Based on the past history of the following failure modes, servicers
feel that there will be a severely limited lifespan of new TVs:

  Check this beta program out, it's a cool way to talk over the internet.

I found a beta test site by accident and I am stoked! I thought that
people in this group might be able to use something like this for
keeping in touch.

I haven't seen my sister in Oregon in six years and she was totally
able to see me in real-time like I was sittin' at her kitchen table.

It was very cool. Totally AWESOME ! Anything I brought up on my
computer screen was sent to my sister's computer scree
--pictures,
files, graphs--you name it. I was able to show her tons of picture of
the kids! It was a lot of fun. Very cool. The video was nice and
fast too.

Just wanted to let you guys in on this test thing. www.bvisual.com/ebrochure

  Expectations vs reality         


Author: Steve
Date: Feb 29, 2008 11:36

Excerpts from
http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/articles/2008/02/24/grape_expectations/?page...

Scientists at CalTech and Stanford recently published the results of a
peculiar wine tasting. They provided people with cabernet sauvignons
at various price points, with bottles ranging from $5 to $90. Although
the tasters were told that all the wines were different, the
scientists were in fact presenting the same wines at different prices.
The subjects consistently reported that the more expensive wines
tasted better, even when they were actually identical to cheaper
wines. When subjects were told they were getting a more expensive
wine, there was more activity in a part of the brain known to be
involved in our experience of pleasure. People expect expensive wines
to taste better, and then their brains literally make it so.

  Ethernet Splitters         


Author: nr
Date: Feb 29, 2008 04:25

I have broadband Internet service and am using VOIP, which is
connected to my cable modem (modem to phone adapter to PC). On
various occasions (including now), my phone service doesn't work,
requiring me to switch the Ethernet cables around.

I'm wondering if using an Ethernet splitter to split the signal coming
out of the cable modem (one line to the phone adapter, one to the PC)
would cause any problems (with the signal)?

Thanks for any help.
