There's a country song called "What Was I Thinking?" It's a cute story about a young man who takes a beautiful girl out for a date. Normal, right? Except for the fact that the girl's father is a bit crazy. And despite the father's gun-toting demeanor, the boy decides to take the girl out again. And so the question "What was I thinking?" Probably at some point in our lives, most of us have done something and later asked "What was I thinking!?" But have you ever thought about this on a much broader scale? Do you realize how powerful your thoughts are and the effect they have on your life? What does your life look like right now? Do you have a fulfilling, nurturing relationship? Can and do you...

Any Georgia certified teacher that passed the GACE test will tell you that it takes "two to tango;" your understanding of the test and the test itself. I just lost you, didn't I? Well, if you failed or think you are going to fail, you are doing it the wrong way. You are limping instead of running because you don't take the preparation process seriously. A friend of mine, Sue, took the test two times before passing on the third try. I asked her what was different with the third time and why she passed. She assumed responsibility for not being proactively finding the secret to passing this test. Her determination to make the third try be the last one prompted her to do something different. DO...

For individuals looking forward to pocketing fat paychecks right after acquiring their degree, having complete and essential knowledge about the degrees that are worth highest starting salary is extremely important.

I read a blog post the other day which was in essence complaining about the state of bilingual education that currently exists in the United States. The article suggested that bilingual education is going from bad to worse. For example, many school districts are dropping their foreign language programs altogether. The argument was that a loss of these programs is leading to a monolingual society. Well, this is probably the case, but I don't think the problem is as grave as this author wanted his readers to believe. I do agree that our foreign language education still has a long way to go, but when compared to other countries, I would say that we're about in the same situation. In the travels I have...

However as a general rule European basketball salaries are still lower than those in the US. The reason European basketball salaries are lower is really to do with the popularity of the sport.

Texas was our home for 21 years. It was good to us and has provided a nice retirement. Before you decide on retiring in Texas, ask yourself a few questions. First, what kind of weather do you like? From the Dallas area to the Panhandle, you will get some snow in the winter. If you have to have warm weather take a look at Corpus Christi and Brownsville. The hill country around Austin is a nice compromise it is cooler than say Houston in the summer. Second, how close do you need to be to a big city? If you travel...

There is a shocking mole in the world of journalism. Deborah Blair Porter appears to have an impressive resume, writing for Edweek, The Los Angeles Times and The Daily Breeze. She might have even had a local council position in the South Bay of Los Angeles at some point. Ms. Porter has a "secret" that creates a journalistic bias in the most egregious way. Keep reading for more. Ms. Porter clearly supports the Individuals with Disabilities in Education Act (IDEA), this is not unusual. I have never heard of anyone who has ever been against it. I recently read an article authored by Ms. Porter that was published in Edweek. The content and comments in her article were disingenuous and embarrassing at...

With the economy seemingly headed toward what appears to be a sequel of the Depression of the 1930's, these are very testing times for many people who are merely trying to live a normal day-to-day life. There are so many negative changes in the economy. While the price of everything is going up and earnings remain the same, there is a great urge to find other sources of income. The cost of living is not what is used to be, to say the least. With the increasing cost of gas, groceries, mortgages, insurance and almost any necessity imaginable it seems almost impossible to manage without multiple sources of income. With that being said, here are seven ways to earn extra income that are practical and may...

These days, with high stakes testing and standardization running amok, the old readin', 'ritin' and 'rithmatic adage is riding high. Politicians who haven't been in a classroom in who knows how long, are crowing about teaching the basics. But as drop-out rates soar and more and more children are left behind, folks have to wonder if there isn't something more to this education thing. I propose that there is something terribly missing. In fact, some alternative educators have been pushing for their own version of The Big Three for years. Introducing The Three Cs: curiosity, confidence and caring. If we really want to reach kids, we need to pay as much attention to these kinds of basics as the others...

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"...is the most recent slogan to come out from the city, enticing tourists to come out and cut loose. Unfortunately, Las Vegas Schools are struggling, while the casinos enjoy seemingly limitless profits. In fact, most Nevada tax dollars actually go to the casinos! Not only do the Las Vegas Schools struggle on a meager budget, but they also struggle consistently to recruit and keep teachers. These folks, understandably, are the lifeblood of any school system. Without the teachers, the students have no guidance in their learning. Without the teachers, the city's 215,000 children would have no school. The Las Vegas Schools recently made a public plea for teachers...

Skill-based pay is an alternative to job-based pay. Rather than having an individual's job title define his or her pay category, skill-based pay (or also sometimes called competency-based pay) sets pay levels on the basis of how many skills employees have or how many jobs they can do. What's the appeal of skill-based pay plans? From management's perspective, its appeal is its flexibility. Filling staffing needs is easier to do when employee skills are interchangeable. This is particularly true today, as many organizations cut the size of their workforce. Downsized organizations require more generalists and fewer specialists. While pay based on skill encourages employee to acquire a boarder range of...

The Qualified Domestic Relations Order is a typical mechanism for distribution of retirement plans between spouses.

You might disagree with me but hear me out on this. 403b retirement plans are much like standard 401k plans in the way they are set up and taxed. 403b plans are severely limiting and the returns are generally pretty low. If you want to maximize your returns and have more control over your account, you should consider rolling over to a self-directed IRA. Here are 5 big reasons why this is something to consider. 1. 403b retirement plans do not have tax-advantages. They are set up like traditional accounts, meaning that the contributions are tax-deductible but your earnings and withdrawals are taxed. This means more paperwork and generally more taxes. If you think you are going to be in a higher tax...

Carbon dioxide is an inorganic gaseous carbon compound. As early as the 1600s, people had started to think about this gas, although they didn't know what it really was and what to call it. Flemish chemist Jan Baptist van Helmont made observations which hinted about the existence of carbon dioxide, setting the stage for breakthrough work in the 18th century by Joseph Black, a Scottish chemist who identified carbon dioxide and explored many of its properties. By the 1800s, scientists had succeeded in creating and studying other forms of carbon dioxide, such as its solid form. At room temperature, carbon dioxide takes the form of an odorless, colorless gas which is incombustible in normal conditions...
