Reviews: Maxthon and Slacker.com
I’ve recently came across these two new websites/services and have enjoyed them both very much. I thought I would share them with you.

With the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 all hitting new highs on a regular basis, I’m starting to get more defensive in my investing.
Low Carb Dieting – Day 15 – 10 lbs Lost!

Liveable Wage at UVM
Over the last week there has been much news and talk over this UVM protest over the lowest starting wages of $10.60/hour, which would be $22,048/year.
Low Carb Dieting
Heavenly and I decided to go back on the Atkins Diet (or low carb diet or South Beach Diet) to lose a few pounds we’ve gained over the winter.

New Burlington Green Party Website
