Well, the wife came to me this morning and tells me she wants to start an online business. Needless to say I know next to nothing about getting started, whats' involved and most importantly how much money this is gonna cost me to put together for her. Wonder if anyone here has experience with such a thing and can give me any advice?

So, went out for a "thinking" walk this morning and as I look up to the sky... saw not one, but two (out of the 21 total) B-2 bombers flying over Bethesda. Pretty impressive, and cool. It is not everyday one sees $4.2 billion flying being operated by a grand total of 4 people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-2_Spirit

http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h3/Current/ The Federal Reserves Statistical Release, which lists how much money the banks & other financial institutions in the US have in reserve for various purposes. Of particular interest is the column marked "non-borrowed", which is basically the amount of money they have available for when customers make withdrawals, or in layman's terms, how much cash they have in the vault. Note that in the unadjusted tables, this number has gone negative. In other words, when you go withdraw money from the bank, that money ain't there, and your bank is now borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank so that your transaction can go thr…

Back when I was collecting soundtracks I had quite a few of his discs. It is with sorrow that we report the passing of Erich Kunzel at the age seventy-four. He was the celebrated conductor of the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra for well over thirty years, but on September 1, 2009 he was struck down by

I want to convert a fair amount of Euros in a EU bank account to my US banks. This was money earned from work, and EU income tax has already been paid on it. Are there any issues/complications I should be aware of when transfering it back stateside? Any tax issues with the US? I'm going to contact our hospital's financial adviser next week, but thought I'd ask here.

I drove down to my Granddad's house this weekend to attend his 90th Birthday party. It was the very first Birthday party he's ever had in all of his 90 years. About 80 friends and relatives drove down to share the very special day with him. This was the second time I've ever seen him tear up. The first was when my Grandmother passed away. He was absolutely shocked when he walked into the Church rec. rm. and saw how many people showed up. It was the best day I've had in a long time. My Granddad is a very, very special person, and my greatest hero. He danced with his two daughters, daughter in law and his new wife. You'd never believe that he was 90 years old. He sta…

It feels like ages since I've last been back here. Seems like much has happened during my absence. Smeggy started making headphones and became a MOT, and a bunch of new companies emerged, Schit, Audeze, etc. My last purchase was a Pico DAC/amp and it has served me well all these years. Earlier, I was chatting with someone and he was raving about how his friend just got a LCD2 and was driving it with a Little Dot amp; is this the new hype right now? At least Nate is still rocking his breastfeeding avatar! I noticed that I cannot view member profiles, so there must be some kind of restriction put on my account. I'm not here to ruffle old-man grawk's feathers (with …

I stumbled across this thread on Audiocircle- http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/index.php?topic=44200.0 Any thoughts? I'm not that bothered by the initial complaint/premise of the thread, but the way so many people bashed the OP for calling out this behavior seriously disturbs me. Echoes of another place? (at least this time the mods aren't into it- visibily, anyway)

Folks, I remember starting this thread on the old layout. I didnt see that again. I just wanted to share my experiences on handling Kenny G for the company I work for. He is doing a gigs in our corporate event and I'm the event coordinator. Have to admit he is one of the easiest celebrity to take care. No stupid request for his riders. A very nice guy, easily approachable and very down to earth. When he finished his performance, some of our premium clients wanted to take a picture with him and he graciously agreed "whatever you want....." is his comments when I ask for his permission. I'm his fan to a certain extent though not biggest fan. Despite his music which is hi…
