a great firm. I only buy from them now and they are the only glasses that I have where I've gotten multiple complements from strangers.

Coastal and Clearlycontacts are the same firm. I've had great service from them.

it is battery powered but unlike other locks the battery doesn't move the actual bolt. That keeps the battery from draining down too fast. It is also usable with a key so we have an emergency option too.

one of the best investments I've ever made was this lock. Now the house gets most of the time.

The MS HUP program will only allow you to buy one license of Office. But it's one license of that particular version. So if you've done this for Office 2010 you can now buy a 2013 license. In addition if you want a Mac version that's also included in (most) the program and doesn't count against the Windows versions.

my family has one calendar for each person. We've shared the calendars amongst us so we can easily see who needs to be where and when we have conflicts.

regardless of how well it went, regardless of what the interviewer said, regardless of getting your references checked out, of passing a police check, regardless of anything.

make sure everything is clean then sterilize the jars in the oven.

I have been on LinkedIn for about 9 years now. I've gotten one job through it and its helped on many others.

you're right, it looks like it's a different size.

The Region of Halton puts their garbage collection schedule out as a google calendar. While that doesn't sound very useful we have alternating weeks of refuse pick up vs. recycling, yard waste and monthly special pickups so I'd always be guessing/looking up the calendar online. Now it's just there on my phone.

Whenever I have a video or phone interview I always ask right upfront if the other side has a clear connection. Don't assume that if you can hear them clearly the opposite is true.

Outlook is like most MS Office products - there's a huge number of features, many of which you don't necessarily need to use. But I love the flexibility and the capability to create a Getting Things Done process natively within Outlook.

I tried Aviate and it drove me batty. I found that I wanted most of the same information/widgets most of the time. Also I wanted to be able to put shortcuts in the 'home' section which it didn't allow.

The feature I like on OneNote is the running journal that you can set up that links the note to the webpage or file you happen to been in. So if you're reading a website and want to make a small note to yourself ON will include the URL. It will do this for Word and Powerpoint files too.

Microsoft has been good on supporting the Mac - heck it's arguable that Apple as we know it exists because of Microsoft's support.

I do like the tagging functionality in Evernote over how OneNote does it. I use OneNote for other reasons but tagging is a feature I'd like them to improve.

In Canada the RRSP account can be tapped at anytime - you just pay the relevant taxes. So it is a good way to save for periods where you're not working. I'm not sure the legalities of an IRA so if it's different your point is valid.

Life insurance as a savings vehicle isn't very good. Life insurance is better used as insurance IMHO.
