Gas Prices and Their Effect on Driving Behavior

Well, in order to add another perspective to the blog, I asked my friend Era Circunstancio again to write an article on rising gas prices, and how it is affecting his and other drivers driving habit. I have already written two articles on record high gas prices, including Rising Gas Prices, and High Oil Prices - Lifestyle Changes. If you have any tidbits that you would like to share, please do so, and use the comments form to tell us how record high gas prices is affecting you.

Blog Software Upgrade

Upgrading the site's blogging software

I would just like everybody to know that there is going to be a possible upgrade to our current blogging software. It has been over 2 years since I have upgraded my blog, and there are apparently quite a few updates to the current blogging software.

Past experiences have taught me that not upgrading the site to the latest updates has very hefty penalties. I didn't upgrade some of my previous scripts and they were hacked by unscrupulous people, and I don't want such a situation repeating. The upgrade will take this week, and during the upgrade, it is possible that the site will go offline or won't be available for viewing.

Finance Dictionary - Business Concepts

Finance Dictionary or Finance Wiki on the cards - Business Concepts in Detail

Well, I was thinking about what would be a good addition to the site, and it got me thinking - a finance dictionary wouldn't be such a bad idea. There are quite a few websites out there that explain financial business concepts, but most of them merely give you the definition. The dictionary that will be provided by Indews Financial will not only give you the definition but will also explain the concept in details with examples.

Clinton as VP: Against Obama's Message of Change

Clinton as Vice President

Well, I have already written numerous articles about how Clinton will end up being the Vice President, or she will blackmail Obama for it. I thought it would be good to bring in another perspective. I asked my friend Era Circunstancio, to write about Clinton and Vice Presidency. This is his opinion.

With the closing of the Montana primary last Tuesday, all eyes were focused on the new presidential candidate of the Democratic Party. Barack Obama surpassed the magic number of 2118 delegates that night to clinch his party's nomination. No sooner had reporting of Obama's historic win made news than the media set their attention on potential running mates for the upcoming presidential election. Of the many likely candidates, Hillary Clinton immediately took the spotlight. After having run a fierce campaign against Obama in the primary season, she is now vying to fill the vice-presidential spot on the Democratic ticket in November.

Blogging Everything Except Finance

Writing a disproportionate number of General articles instead of Finance Articles

It seems that these days I am spending more time blogging and posting articles about normal events of my life rather than financial related articles.

The last financial articles I wrote were about Microsoft, Yahoo, and Google Stock History. I will try to write more financial related articles, but since GMAT is on June 20th, I won't be able to dedicate a significant portion of my time to write them. Writing financial articles takes time compared to just blogging about events that occur during my daily life, hence the greater number of general articles on Indews Financial.

Michigan Fishing

Fishing in Michigan

I just wanted to write something about this, even though my knowledge regarding fishing isn't that sufficient. For starters, I have fished about five to six times, and all of them were in Michigan. From what I remember, the best place I had luck in catching the fish was in Detroit River. They were small fish, but that is the only place I remember catching a lot of fish.

In order to improve my fishing, I was advised to use Minnows but when I went to the bait shop to buy them, they were out. Minnow is a small fish that is used as bait, and improves the chances of catching fish (I have been told). So, for those of you who want to use minnows as live bait, it is better if you wake up early in the morning, go to a bait shop, and get your minnows. For the fishing rod, I have Tiger Spinning, Shakespeare. I think Tiger Spinning is the name of the company and Shakespeare the product. The fishing rod seems OK, but at first I kept getting it tangled, but now I know how to handle it.

Hillary Clinton VP - Why She Will End Up Being On The Ticket

Hillary Clinton Will Be The VP

Now, I wrote numerous articles saying that Hillary Clinton was eying the post of VP, and then how she shot herself in the foot by demanding it. Now, as Obama has set up a committee to look into Vice Presidency, I am beginning to believe that Hillary Clinton will end being the VP for Barack Obama.
