Dear Investors,
The third quarter of 2009 saw a continued strong rebound in the global equity markets following what appeared to be broad investor recognition earlier this year that the Great Depression, Part II was not under way.

The bounce off the March 9th low of 666 has been a breathtaking rise of nearly 59% in just under…

John requested Pasta Carbonara last night for dinner. I couldn't deny him such a simple request. I've made Tyler Florence's U
ltimate recipe countless times. This pasta is truly one of life's ultimate pleasures. I used Bucatini pasta and uncured Pepper Bacon (available at Boney's) in my version. Don't deny your man. Don't deny yourself!…

With 53% of all Americans living in and around coastal cities and towns, it is important to understand the impact of climate-induced sea level rise on our nation.

A commentary by J. F. Kelly, Jr.
My wife and I have a problem. Our two pet cats, Mimi and Mewsetta, have flunked out of boarding school. Both have been told, in as many words, that they are no longer welcome. Boy, are they hissed off! My wife and I aren’t too pleased, either, because it presents a problem, to wit: Who will care for them when we travel? Are we grounded forever?
Leaving them at home and hiring a pet care person to look in on them may not work. Mimi…
