I found myself in the GTD checklist mentality a couple of years ago and finally stopped in the living room of the house and said, "Whoa!" Immediately, I started dropping projects that could be dropped, routines which did nothing for anyone but looked "nice" at work, and picked a few areas I wanted to keep.

Oil changes help a lot—sort of like an infusion of blood for someone who is desperately anemic. Synthetic, however, will leak out all over the place if any seal in the engine is worn. Most shops will inform customer if such is the case.

For me, it really isn't something on which to vote. Not all banks with high interest rates are noted, nor will simple Internet searching provide the best rates. I recently walked into my Wells Fargo Bank to deposit myriad checks, and the teller greeted me with the current savings rate and wanted to know if I would…

As mentioned, much better to show users how to add Move To and Copy To in the Right Click context menu. It not only helps with USB, but all other times when moving and copying files.

Although the method mentioned is quite effective, most users will find Sypbot S&D Hosts file more than enough protection without the possibility of making a horrible mistake. Using OpenDNS or some other service provides the additional layer of protection at the router level.

Great Charter. Where I work, people use long winded e-mails with such verbosity and ornate structure that any meaning is lost in translation. To them it means "I am a capable, competent, writer and manager who gets his/her message across with clarity and grace." Spare me!

Why o' why does Lifehacker continue posting old news from other sites; Groovedown was mentioned days ago on ghacks.net. I hope the writers for LH read the article/commentary about LH ethics. Nearly ever article on LH, nearly every day, has already been covered by one or more of six tech sites. I think its called…

Tips—

I honestly don't understand why one would waste his/her time reading the New York Times in the first place. It's not the ONLY online source of North-East-West-South, and the writers aren't the best. Best writers don't work for newspapers.

For what it's worth, I finished building a neat little computer from a kit found at Newegg which included a MSI motherboard, an Intel i3 chip, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, a Hitachi 250GB hard drive, a 550 watt power supply, and a Nvidia 512MB. The total was $300. I totally love it! Sort of tricky, but easy enough.

The following quote from the article offers a better assessment of how our leaders think and work: "Everyone wants to own the result, nobody wants to own the process."

Yes, Gmail provides instructions for Outlook integration and IMAP isn't essential. POP works fine. The one advantage I found to having Gmail on Outlook was the ability to send e-mails with a free security certificate from Comodo: [www.comodo.com]

The "few commenters" who reported trouble getting Google Frame to install are in true computer lock down situations. If users are able to install and even use portable software which theoretically runs without rights, etc., then the IT Department isn't fully knowledgeable about computer/security measures.

Maybe I'm lucky and have great cards used through PayPal. I report any type of fraud to my credit card company immediately, and they take care of the rest. Actually, I think they like hearing about fraud because in the long-term it means fewer people try it.

The only basic rule in personal finance and getting rich = "Pay yourself first."

Surprised—no mention of Buffalo Grass: [www.naturehills.com]

Love is an infinitely more powerful emotion than fear. If I really love and respect myself, I will do those things and think those thoughts that are for the highest good of all.

Most obvious—try the Johari Window with several friends. Unexpected blessings!

Personality + . People love to talk, I've learned to listen, people are interesting characters in this Cosmic Play. Anything other than this is "desperation."

The least expensive option and best search site isn't listed—no vote. ITA had the highest price of $1,228.30; the least expensive, same days, times, airline was $ 1,131.63 on the site not mentioned. In-depth research, not a click, click, pays off forever. In this case, $100. One can save even more by completing…
