For over 85 years, citizen watches have been some of the best made ones in the world. There is no wonder why they are the top selling brand in the world. This Valentine’s Day I would love to get one of their Citizen Eco-Drive Watches. Why Eco-Drive? Easy — you’re talking about one of the best and most affordable self-powered watches on the planet. Never buy a battery again — the Citizen Eco-Drive Watch charges itself as you wear it. Sure this feature is available elsewhere, but Citizen makes it affordable without it being cheap. Citizen watches are always known for their quality and beauty. Check out this one:

This is the Men’s Eco-Drive Chronograph Strap watch — its got a 150-Day Power reserve and a One-Second chronograph.

Check out this great brand and many others are BlueDial.com. They have a comprehensive selection of quality watches and timepieces from all the great makers at low prices. When you pick your favorite watch, then you get free 2nd day shipping to the Continental United States. You can rest assured that all the watches they sell are brand new, genuine pieces. Never previously owned or phony watches! If you have any questions visit their website or give them a ring at 1- 877-518-9396.

The idea goes something like this — in the Contrarian form of investing, you buy when other people sell, and you sell when other people buy. That means when the economy is in the dumps, it is the best time for you to grow it! How? Easy — when the economy is down, there are a lot of historically low-priced businesses and properties. Everyone is going out of business — everyone is going bankrupt. This means bank foreclosures, auctions, fire sales, and companies looking for buyers. If you have the cash (and the nerve) you can capitalize and grow your business in leaps and bounds. So what if you agree with what i;m saying but just don’t have the money? Maybe your business is financially sound but there is no capital to grow? Then what?

OnlineCheck.com can get you the Fast Business Loan you need to take full advantage of the playing field. Getting a Merchant Cash Advance shouldn’t be difficult — Luckily OnlineCheck.com understands that and has make it quick and easy to get the business funding you need. Check out their website and see just how quickly they can get you the fast cash injection you need. Who needs the Fed to give you bailout when you have OnlineCheck.com and its financial services.

I was doing a lot of business in New Jersey this past year with my job. I really liked the area, so I decided to go back there for vacation. You wouldn’t realize it if you haven’t been there before, but New Jersey actually has a lot of fun stuff to do. No, I’m not talking about the tour of the Sopranos locales — I’m talking about the Jersey Shore and great Wildwood attractions and roller coasters. Located in Wildwood, New Jersey, Morey’s Piers is one of the most famous amusement parks in the Garden State. With over 100 rides and attractions to see (not to mention the classic boardwalk on the shore), Morey’s Piers is a great place to visit. Ever seen those great boardwalk amusement parks on TV? Well this is exactly one and the best news is that now through January 9 they are having a sale on season park passes. Save almost 40% when you buy the whole package. If you are just visiting, you can also get great ticket and hotel deals from the official website moreyspiers.com. The site is always being updated with their latest weekly special so visit often.

Why go where everyone else goes? Instead this year visit somewhere different and take a Jersey Shore beach Vacation. It will be something you will never forget. Also, its close proximity to other gret NJ and New York cities means you can make it a stop on a longer visit along the East Coast. Did someone say Road Trip?

I remember the toys I played with as a kid — my favorites were Star Wars action figures, G.I. Joes, Transformers and Legos. Those were the good old days of imagination. I don’t remember having a single toy that was electronic before the age of 12 or 13. Nowadays its almost impossible to find a toy that isn’t electronic or uses advanced technology. Even a Medieval Building set will have lights and sounds!

What I really like now (and what I wished I had as a kid) are these builder-type toys like Struxx Robotrixx where you can build your own mechanized creation. Whether it be a walking dinosaur or your very own roller coaster, kids these days can push their imagination to the boundaries. Speaking of roller coasters, check out this amazing new toy. This MagNext iCoaster play set:

[ Photo care of http://www.megabrands.com/ and MagNext]
This 64-piece MagNext iCoaster set combines sights, sounds, and physics into an amazing award winning toy. You can create your own roller coaster using high power magnets and then plug in your favorite MP3s to create a soundtrack for it! It has light-up sensors and many different track building pieces to create a custom roller coaster every time. How can a kid get board with this? I mean, where was this toy when I was a kid? Oh yeah, it didn’t exist.

Companies like MEGA Brands are using construction-based and learning-based toys to help young kids grow their imaginations and refine their motor skills. I mean, after building your own walking dinosaur, wouldn’t you feel like the king of the castle?

It’s been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember to one day build my own house. No I’m not talking about with my own hands, but act as the general contractor (or project manager) and facilitate the whole process. Get the home I want with the materials I want — not settling for anything less than the best! Have you shared this dream? I know many of you have. Well here is the first step in making that dream come true — select your own perfect house design from these House Plans. Its more than just a layout site — once you find the house you only dream of, you actually can purchase the complete plans (a Reproducible Master) for use in constructing your home! Its professionally designed and engineered home without an outrageous price tag. There are literally thousands to choose from — from beautiful Country House Plans to urban designs. They even have log home floor plans for your mountain vacation spot! Houseplansandmore.com has a lot of great tools to use — not only the house plans but also an online cost estimator to help you plan! Everything you need to get started is available from their site — they will even help you find the builder.

Here’s my recent train of thought which lead to a great new product idea. Steal it please! Just remember to remember me when you are rich!

What’s so great about DVD players versus VHS? Well one major point is that you can skip to different scenes with fast forwarding. I mean, its digital — like a CD versus a cassette tape.

Second thought — when you see a movie on TV, its been edited for content. Language, violence, nudity. I mean, I want to let my 3 year old see Iron Man but he’s too young for so much violence.

Put the two thoughts together and what do you have? A DVD or DVD Player where you can “set” the rating on each play. G, PG, PG-13, R — all available once a single disk! Its just a matter of “editing” out some parts and bleeping (or silencing) some audio parts! Why hasn’t this been done yet? Its shouldn’t be that difficult.

What do you think about my idea?

Last year was a slow year in terms of high tech purchases for me. Why? I’m not too sure — maybe I was too busy working to bother. The only high tech things I bought last year were an new Dell desktop with Windows XP and an iPod Shuffle. Both worthy purchases but 2009 will be like a flood in terms of high tech!

My first purchase of 2009 has got to be an HD radio receiver like the totally awesome Jensen JiMS 525i. Just look at it:

So what is HD Radio? Well for the past few years, radio stations around the country have been broadcasting their signal in HD (high definition) along with their regular signal. Huh? Didn’t know about that? Well not many people have, but I have and every since I heard about it I wanted to get it. HD radio is digital radio from ground based antennae — its free, clear, and has advanced features like data. With a receiver like the Jensen JiMS 525i you can perform song tagging which lets you mark songs you here so you can later download them from your favorite music site. There are local radio stations in most major markets — Atlanta included — and its just sitting there waiting for you to listen to. I like this Jensen model because it not only lets you listen to HD Radio but it also acts as an iPod dock. Isn’t that cool? Yeah, I totally want one and mark my word, I will post about it when I buy one in the coming months. Let me know if you have heard about HD Radio before and whether you’d consider buying one of these products for yourself. If you want me to write more about HD Radio than let me know and I will perform more research. Thanks.

In 2008, the U.S. Market performance was as follows:

• Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI) =   -33.84%
• Standard & Poor’s 500 (.SPX) =   -38.49%
• Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC) =   -40.54%
• Russell 1000 Large Cap =   -39.02%

When you started your small business, it was probably just a handful of people and yourself working together (or maybe just you!). As your business grew and started becoming successful, the strains of organic growth meant that you needed to add new employees to help match the workload. As the time went by, and as your number of staff grew, you probably found yourself stuck more and more time each week with administrative duties like attendance tracking and labor calculations. Going over everyone’s time sheets before payroll? That’s a lot of work — time that you could be spending on more urgent business matters or at home with your family on the weekends. This is why when your business gets to this point that you need a 3rd party service like iEmployee’s Internet-based Human Resources Management solutions. This web enabled service allows you to easily track Time and Attendance along with other HR functions like reporting and records. An online based timesheets tracking software like this will allow you to smoothing transition from your paper- or spreadsheet-based accounting and allow you to automate a lot of the process. It will not only free up your valuable time but it will also help reduce errors. Errors in time sheets which lead to incorrect paychecks can frustrate both you and your valuable employees. Don’t let this happen to you — get help!

If you love glasses, you might have three or four pairs. I mean, if you are going to live with corrective lenses, you might as well have different glasses for different looks and moods. But what about seasonal eye glasses? What about eyeglasses you have just for the holiday season? Wow, that might be really fun but who can really afford a special pair of glasses for so few days a year? Well you can! And its thanks to Zenni Optical.

Wow! How can Zenni do this? Its easy — they make and sell the glasses direct without middlemen, markups or retail stores.

Their selection can’t be beat and, their cost, well that goes without saying!

Did you know that the Sony PlayStation 3 is still selling for a loss. Yes, its true! For every PS3 Sony sells, its actually losing money. According to the Wall Street Journal, it now costs Sony about $448.73 to build a new PS3. That’s more than its $399 selling price. But even crazier is that a few years ago (with the 1st generation model) it cost upwards of $690.23 for each unit. Why would Sony sell PS3s for a loss? Here are some reasons:

1. It is competing with rich Microsoft (who can afford losses) and cheap Nintendo and needs to be competitive.
2. Sony makes a profit still on the games, so its a case of the loss leader.
3. Sony wanted to get the Blu-Ray player popular and include it as built-in functionality.

It’s never too late to sit on Santa’a lap and ask for something for Christmas… that is, in cyberspace. Here’s a screenshot from my video with Santa:

The Sit on Santas Lap Experience is brought to us by CEIVA. Its really quite a neat little interactive min-site. You can upload a photo and make your Christmas wish and your face, name, and wish will be embedded into the video. Cool! The real cool thing about this is the product they are showing — the new CEIVA Digital Photo Frame with CEIVAshare. What makes this different than a regular digital photo frame? Well with CEIVAshare you can be sent new photos from your friends and family over a WiFi connection or a phone line. Amazing! You don’t need a computer or Internet connection in order to get new photos. The frame is now $100 off its regular price and it includes one free year service of  CEIVAshare. Now that’s really a holiday gift that keeps giving and giving. And now, if that weren’t cool enough, there is a contest where 1 random entry will be selected each day of the contest for a cash prize of $500 per winner. You just have to tell Santa your wish to be entered! Who’s got a wish to share?

Here’s a prediction I made last year which I really thought would have come true by now. Have you seen it anywhere in the world?

The idea is simple. Two or more screens which are stacked on top of each other while not in use. When you want a larger display on your handheld device, your flip the two screens out to create one large display! Why are we seeing this for pocket computers and mobile gaming devices?

If you work for a large multi-national company, then you already know what I’m talking about. When you stretch a company across area codes, time zones, and continents, you must deal with the issues of a wide area computer network. In order to share data between multiple business locations, companies need to decide on the best and safest solution to connect company computers. While the Internet is great, you shouldn’t trust sensitive company data across the WWW. Instead you need to deploy a secured computer infrastructure using software protocols like SSH, Telnet, and SFTP. In these worlds, data is protected by a solid layer of data encryption and protection.

Companies like Pragma Systems are specializing in providing services like telnet for Windows. The benefit is a product line concentrated on the highest levels of security and accessibility for businesses. Pragma Systems’ three focuses are providing a 1) secure, 2) reliable, and 3) scalable networking solution for your company. Whether you are sharing data between offices in the same industrial park or across the world, you need to make sure your system is setup in a secure manner. Trust the professionals — your data is often more valuable than the equipment it runs on!

Are you are the brink of bankruptcy? Are you about to lose it all due to credit card debt? Well there might be an alternative to bankruptcy and its called Debt Settlement. In debt settlement, you negotiate with your creditors and try to reach a reduced settlement value for your debts. But be warned, this is not easy to do — its complex and requires knowledge of the process. Accordingly you should use a professional debt negotiation and debt settlement company like DebtExpertUsa.com to work for you. They are the experts in this subject and can help you reduce the amount you owe from 40% to 60%. Why does this work? Well instead face the risk of future default, your creditors (like credit card companies) will likely settle for a “sure thing” payment today instead of waiting for years and years to recoup the principle. DebtExpertUsa.com can help you get debt free in as little as 18 months. Results will vary, but most people get it done within 12 to 36 months (with 18 months as an average). Another benefit is that you will now only face a single monthly debt payment — one focused amount to get you free of that debt in a matter of years, not decades. Check out their site and learn more about their services.

Looking for a new job? Have you been laid off due to the poor economy? Well if you have, you are probably on the job hunt. Here’s a tip that will help give you the edge. Whenever you go on an interview, follow-up it up with a hand written thank you note. No seriously — forget the thank you emails or text messages. They may be accepted but they are far from being proper. A simple hand written thank you note will do wonders whether you get the job or not. A handwritten card with a simple Thanks is easy — and it can say a lot about your style and values. Check out these amazing papers and envelopes from paper-papers.com. You can’t beat their selection of Folded Cards. These cards are perfect for Thank You notes. It only takes 10 minutes to get a card, write a few words, and address an envelope. Keep this in mind as you search for a new job and check out the selection of quality writing tools from paper-papers.com. Its just that this technique is so forgotten in this digital age, that doing it will draw special attention to yourself and your resume. Good luck!

One subject in the world of financing always make me smile and that’s Zero Percent Financing. Think about it for a moment — when you get zero percent financing, you get a lump sum of money today (with which you use to purchase something) and you only have to pay back the principal amount of time. No interest accrues and that means the cost of borrowing that money is zero. When you factor in inflation of currency (meaning money becomes worth less over time as prices rise), you are actually getting paid to buy now (sort of). If you have credit card debt, why not get a hold on the interest by finding 0% balance transfers to use. With 0% transfers, you move your debt onto a card where you only pay back the principal of the amount and no interest accrues on the balance. ZeroRate.net is your online partner to find Zero Percent balance transfers. They can even show you how much money you’ll save over time but moving your balance from an interest bearing card to a 0% interest one. They can even show you how to Manage Balance Transfers and your finances with help from their insightful articles and posts. Get your money for nothing today by visiting ZeroRate.net and finding the perfect balance transfer offer.

Have you done your 2008 taxes yet? OK, just kidding. You won’t be getting your W-2s for at least a few more weeks, but you get my point, don’t you? Getting your taxed done early is peace of mind that you just can put a price on. Waiting until the last minute to file your taxes can be one of the worst things to do. All the stress and all the trouble. Do yourself a favor and do your taxes as soon as possible this year! Trust me!

So what if you are behind on your taxes or woe a lot of money to the IRS? Well if you have a troubling tax situation, seek professional help from the Tax Relief Specialists at TaxReliefSpecialists.com. They have all the expertise — over 40 years experience — at providing solid tax help to get your financial house in order. Lower the amount you owe to the government by getting professional help. They can help reduce the amount you owe and get you on an income tax payment plan to get you free and clear faster. And in the bad case where you are behind on your filings, the Tax Relief Specialists can file your delinquent tax returns so you can get current with the IRS. Don’t delay — its only going to get worse.

Here’s a great idea I’d like to see happen. I think new cars should start coming with a digital camera and necessary power adapters to power it up whenever its needed. There should be a special spot in the center console to store it. Why? Why not?! Digital camera technology is very inexpensive and the benefits of having one handy can be huge. Here are some examples:

• Insurance claims - You get into an accident and wait 1 hours for the police to arrive. Wouldn’t it be useful to take photos to help hold up your claim?
• Hit and Run - What if you get into an accident and the other party flees? Get a photo of that license plate.
• Special Occasions - What if you see something really amazing and think “I wish I had a camera”. Bingo!

If you haven’t sent out your holiday cards yet, its almost too late. You really need to take care of this task today in order to get them sent out to your friends and family before Christmas. Why not take the stress out of this activity and let christmascardsdirect.com handle it for you. They offer a wide variety of products and services, which I’ll get to later, but for now I’d like to tell them about their best, ultra-fast service for last minute Photo Christmas Cards. You upload your photo to their site, select your own customized border, choose one of their ready-made greetings (or even type in your own), and get them printed ASAP. Since you are in a pinch for time, you can also take advantage of their return labeling. They will imprint your return address on the envelope so you don’t have to worry about it. All you have to do is address and stamp the envelope and sign!

If you have more time and want bargain priced (but still great looking) holiday photo cards, they offer that service too. Its without the personalized greeting and the return address, but its cheap and easy! Get your holiday cards in a hurry before its too late. They also offer photo-holder Christmas cards which hold your own 4×6″ photo. Don’t delay!

Remember when MTV used to play music most of the dazy? Well that’s long gone and the spin-off MTVs (MTV2 et al.) aren’t too far behind. So where can you find real music from MTV? Online! Check out MTVMusic.com — its like YouTube for music videos with all your favorite artists. And best of all you can embed your favorite videos on your webpages:

So what’s the idea behind the $7000 billion bailout of U.S. banks and securities? Well its easy — without cash, companies cannot operate. Its all about liquidity. If you don’t have enough cash to spend on day to day operations, then your business grinds to a halt, perhaps forever. Even profitable companies requires short term financing to stay open for business. Think about it this way — when your employees go to the bank to cash their check, they need that money right away. If you have 100 employees and each one averages $2500 a pay, that’s a whopping $250,000 you need available in your account to meet the payroll! You may have $10,000,000 in sales, but you might not have the cash.

If you run a small to medium business and you are having trouble finding funding and cash in their time of tight credit markets, then visit OnlineCheck.com and read about their Fast Funding business loans . Unlike traditional loans, these fast funding business loans mean yu can have cash available in as little time as 48 hours. They have historically a 90% merchant approval rate for their business loans which means you are little more than a phone call or web-click away from getting the cash you need to stay open for business!

Me and my buddy Hoto (who runs the site ThaCash.com) are planning a trip to Las Vegas, Nevada in 2012. We are calling it the Tofu Lobster Tour 2012 since I am a vegetarian and he loves Lobster. We have already started the planning process for the trip. Why are we planning so far in advance? Well we are planning so far in advance for our trip to Vegas because there are so many things to see there! You can’t possibly visit every show and every attraction in a week (or even a month), so we are taking extra efforts to plan the perfect trip. One great thing about Las Vegas are the shows. That’s why I am checking out the site BestofVegas.com to find the perfect las vegas show to book. One of the shows they feature on their site is the world famous Blue Man Group. The Blue Man Group combines music and theater for an amazing show. BestofVegas.com has great deals on these tickets all year round but for a limited time, they are offering a free seating upgrade when you buy your tickets online. That’s right — free upgrade to Blue Zone seating when you buy your regular tickets now! That’s hot. Another great show that they provide tickets for is Elton John and the Red Piano. Live at the famous Colosseum at Caesars Palace, this is a once in a lifetime chance to catch Elton John performing all his greatest hits. Its more than music — its a visual spectacular to behold and its only in Vegas. Of course, BestofVegas.com is offering free upgrades when you buy tickets through their site. For instance for Elton John they are offering for a limited time an upgrade to Rear Orchestra when you pay for a 1st Mezzanine Seat. That’s a real savings and you will be that much closer to all the excitement and entertainment. As I plan my trip to Las Vegas, I will be sure to use this site to find the best shows and the best prices for those shows. You do the same!

Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 Blogger Break Even Analysis with Average PayPerPost Earnings

Basically, Dragon NaturallySpeaking can help you type so much faster, that you can earn a lot more money per hour.
In this article I’m going to walk you through another scenario focusing on how much extra you could earn if you wrote for PayPerPost.com and you had a single average blog. Now at PayPerPost.com, the amount of money that you earn for your writing is not paid on a per word basis.
PayPerPost.com offers up opportunities, they call them opportunities, but you can also think of them as piecework or a job, and these “opportunities” typically have a minimum word count. The minimum word count is typically 200 words for your average article. In general the average article at PayPerPost on a high earning blog pays about $8.3. Sometimes they pay a little less, and sometimes they pay a little bit more, and a few go to extremes on the positive side.
Now if you are paid $8.3 to write a 200 word article, then that breaks down to about 4.2 cents per word. That is about 6 times more than what you can make at textbroker.com. I mentioned that only for comparison purposes, because PayPerPost.com limits you to writing three articles per blog per day.
That means that you cannot write at PayPerPost all day long for your single blog. (If you have additional blogs, you might be able to write additional articles on those other blogs.)
Tip! – You can write your three articles at PayPerPost, write some additional articles without any sponsors in between those articles (as is required), and then write some articles at PayU2Blog, and when the work is exhausted there, you can write some articles at TextBroker.com! The trick is working for the company that pays you the most first, then moving on to the next highest margin provider, over and over again.
You will see in the case studies with Adsense that writing MORE articles is actually good for building traffic to your blog!
But if we assume, just to have a comparison to our textbroker.com example, if we assume that you could type articles at PayPerPost for fifty minutes straight, earning 4.2 cents per word, and you could type 35 words per minute, you could earn $72.88 dollars per hour at PayPerPost. Now obviously, you cannot take 9 articles on a single blog in a single day, but this does point to the rate at which you can earn things with the work that is available. That $72.88 would be the earnings you could make from about 8.8 Opportunities at $8.3 per Opportunity.
So bear with me again with this example.
So what can faster typing skills do to help you earn more money at PayPerPost?
Well if you could type at 150 words per minute with Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and you currently type at 35 words per minute, then you could earn about $239 per hour more! (Dragon only costs between $99 and $199 remember!)
Reminder - This would assume that you could type articles nonstop at a hundred and fifty words per minute for fifty minutes. For most of us, that doesn’t mean a whole lot.
But to put this in better perspective, if you earned $72.88 from writing about nine articles, and those articles were each 200 words long, then you would have written a total of 1800 words.
• 1800 words can be typed and 50 minutes at 35 words per minute
• 1800 words can be typed in 12 minutes at 150 words per minute
Dragon NaturallySpeaking can essentially save you 38 minutes when you write nine articles.
Now with those additional thirty-eight minutes, you can spend more time:
• promoting your blog,
• networking with people,
• researching other projects,
• taking on other work from other networks

What’s so special about truck insurance anyways? Well for one, truck drivers are usually on the road 60+ hours a week. Compare that to a private individual driving their regular lives and you see the chance of accident is heightened. More hours on the road means more risk no matter how safe the driver. Whether you are hauling loads across the countryside or delivering goods in residential areas, you need to make sure you have the correct insurance for your situation. That can mean Third Party coverage alone, Third Party Fire and Theft coverage, or total Comprehensive coverage. So how can you get the correct coverage for your truck and earn a truck insurance WIN!?

For business, there are a few life lines to which the success of the enterprise is dependent on. Hard working employees are one; a valuable product or service is another; and a third, perhaps as important or more so than the first two is, credit! Without cash flow either from bank loans or lines of credits, most businesses will face a cash crisis during their operation and likely fail. Its not enough to have cash from sales — sometimes you need a little more or a little less to continue operating with things like Payroll and Accounts Payable. For this reason, finding and obtaining the correct Business Credit Cards is a crucial activity for your small business. A business credit card will provide you access to credit with no preset spending limit and automatically gives you a short-term interest free loan. Think about it — how can you grow your business without credit? How can you expand and improve with cash? You need business credit to succeed in business. If you don’t have the right lines of credit open now, you need to make it a top priority to do so immediately. You can succeed at business - you just need to know the ways to secure continued financing for operations and business credit cards are one of them.

It seems like its ocme down to a numbers game — who in the U.S. government or on TV can yell out the largest number they can imagine without being laughed at. $700 billion bailout? Nah, here’s a $1 trillion dollar stimulus package. Its getting a little crazy. I mean, the U.S. GDP for 2007 is about $13.7 trillion while the U.S. Federal Budget was a much smaller $2.7 trillion. What’s up with that? I mean, we just can’t spend an extra $1 trillion magically and no one worries about where it comes from…. can we?

(If you don’t know how to calculate GDP, here is an equation: GDP = consumption + gross investment + government spending + (exports ? imports))

Well its both an amazing fact and a sad one — only 12 humans have ever walked on the moon, or any other body than the Earth before. And all 12 have been American Men. All have been white/Caucasian. The lucky ones have been:

Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Pete Conrad, Alan Bean, Alan Shepard, Edgar Mitchell, David Scott, James Irwin, John W. Young, Charles Duke, Eugene Cernan, Harrison Schmitt

An how weird is it that two are named Alan?

The U.S. housing market is down in the dumps. You would be in great luck if you had saved a nest egg for a new home in the past few years and just coincidentally happen to be looking to buy a home.

What is the “Internet of Things”? Well, its an Internet composed of “things”. OK, more specifically its a network of devices which you don’t normally have networked together. In the future it can be a network of smart home appliances, cars, MP3 players, or even houses. These smart devices will share information online and get information from the web. Think about a fridge which can tell you the prices for food at your local grocery store or an MP3 player which streams music from the web. The future is coming.

Radar guns are really cool. I mean, they seem to work like magic and provide in an instant a reading of speed. They can be used for sports (like baseball radar guns) and for traffic (speeding). RadarGunSales.com is a web leader in the seller of radar guns to private individuals and organizations. Think about this application — Do you have speeders in your neighborhood?

Its a really useful idea and can lead to a safer neighborhood. Of course you can buy Baseball radar guns which can be used at all levels of play. From little league to high school and college, radar guns can help with teaching and skill development. I would buy one for my friend. He’s a little league coach and he would love it! The kids would have so much fun. All of Radar Gun Sales’ products come with the full manufacturers warranty. Best of all the shipping is free when you buy one. Think about all the applications and then choose the right one for you. The holidays are coming — buy a unique and perfect gift.

They won’t make any money! Since the cars are built in Europe, they would cost about $24,400 to sell in the U.S. market. That’s the same as the Toyota Prius. So what’s the problem? The 65 MPG Fiesta runs on diesel and currently diesel costs about $1 more a gallon than gas. Boo-hoo Ford and boo-hoo all of us!

I listened to a recent episode of Radio Lab all about decisions and choices. One segment on it was about the “gut feeling” and where it comes from. Although it seems to be emotional and illogical, the science behind a gut feeling could actually be described as the totality of all your experience and wisdom you’ve gained in similar experiences in the past. This instantaneous feeling, based on all your previous knowledge and experience, is you gut feeling and it actually quite useful! Give it a listen.

That’s the title of an article over at Forbes.com today. It speaks volumes to the news that came out today… about a year too late! The Congratulations, It’s National Bureau of Economic Research announced today that the U.S. economy has been in recession since December of 2007. So what took them too long? Well they say they want to wait until they “have all the numbers” to make their call, but their answer the official starting date of the current recession. So how long will it last? So far it has been 12 months… what will it be when its over? 24 months?

When is a watch not a watch? When it is a Timepiece! Watches like the jaeger lecoultre automatic are above and beyond all regular watches. They are not about telling time (which of course they can certainly do well) but they are more of an iconic statement. A beautiful timepiece like that says a lot about the wearer. Check out this amazing Master Geographic Mens Two Time Zone Watch 18K Rose Gold watch. It is simple amazing with its beauty and sophisticated movement. The Watchery has it for a low price of $13,256 which is over 33% off retail price. That’s like buying this watch and getting a free trip to Hawaii off of retail!

I am planning on buying such a timepiece on my next birthday. I don’t know if it will be as nice as a jaeger lecoultre (or as expensive), but it certainly will be a classic piece.

They truly provide Brand Name Luxury Watches at Discounted Prices and that’s the bottom line. Check them out on EBay too for great last minute auction deals.

That’s the way of the U.S. Dow Jones Industrial Average over the past week plus. Today’s dramatic -679.95 point loss wiped out almost all of last week’s gains. So where does the market head now? Sideways now I hope. What I mean is that the market should keep low during the recession because any gains will be followed by losses, leading to volatility. I’d rather have a stagnant low market rather than a volatile one that goes nowhere.

I love hearing during this time of year stories of care and giving across America. Here’s one of those stories and its brought to us by Sears. The Sears Heroes at Home holiday program is all about providing military families in need with a little extra help this year. A total of 30,583 families are being helped by Sears this year and so far over 525,500 people have already donated to the program. Its easy how it works — just visit the website of Sears Heroes at Home Wish Registry and donate. You can donate money right off the cuff or you can dive deep in the website and read each family’s own story. At the story page, you can them view the family’s wish list and decide to donate a specific amount which will help them meet their needs. All contributions are in the end compiled and given equally to each family so you don’t have to worry about “picking” the right family. When you give, every family on their list wins. This is a really nice thing to do for the holiday season and it shows how much we appreciate what these people and their families are doing to protect our country. Thank you Sears for bringing this program around again this year.
