The screw for the battery compartment does not seem to be an isolated problem. The screw for the battery cover is an extremely small Phillips head. There is a flat piece of metal provided with a tab on each end. This supposed to be the screwdriver. Ordinarily this might work. But in this case the tab is too long to fit in the cross-slot. Therefore the screw cannot be removed so the battery can be inserted. I have jewelers screwdrivers but doubt they would work because the cross-slots are so small they appear nearly round. Makes it difficult to screw in or out.
It’s a shame because the product looks and feels good. But with no battery it is no better than a paper weight, in fact not that good. It’s not heavy enough to hold paper down.
There are MANY other ways to secure a battery compartment. Too bad they didn’t choose one of them. I have sent this thing back to Amazon. Don’t waste your time or money on this product.

I knew I needed to research the subject of retirement planning but was a little intimidated by the subject. Determined to master at least the basics and motivated by concerns that I may be drifting toward vs. planning for retirement, I reluctantly picked up The Three-Legged Stool.

Scout’s honor, and much to my own amazement, I actually stayed up past 1:00 am to finish it. Typically, only Grisham and LesCroat get that kind of attention from me.

The book has three ingredients to its “secret sauce”. Here’s how they came together beautifully for me:

1. I discovered how the basic components of a plan work, how they fit together now, and how they will work for me later. I also discovered unfortunately, that my “one-legged” approach of SOLELY relying on my company’s 401k plan is more avoidance technique than strategy.

2. I love a good story, one that has drama and adventure, makes me think and feel, and has a believable ending. Rick’s stories, frankly, are what kept me reading. Because they made what is typically a dry and boring subject compelling and authentic. These were real people. I relished reading what they did and what happened next as they experienced the consequences of their actions (or lack of action). The stories helped me to “get it” and issued a call to action I felt in my heart as well as my head.

3. I’m also kind of a “tip freak”. They were the spoonful of sugar that helped the medicine go down. Just when I was thinking, “Ok, I need to do this differently than I am now, just relax it’s not too late” and eager to resolve that worry in my tummy, Rick offered a tip that told me just how to proceed. Give me a plan, I’m good to go.

When I finally did so, I slept easily knowing I have a strategy. I can work out the kinks with my financial planner using Rick’s approach. If retirement is your Mt. Everest and you are determined to reach the top painlessly and successfully, Rick is your “financial sherpa”. He’s got years of experien

I am madly in love with my Kindle! I get “giddy” with the thought of all those great books right at my finger tips. Sometimes I even find myself starting to turn the page, I forget that I’m not holding a paper book, I get so swept up in a story. Kiss, kiss. Oh, and a hug for you, Amazon, for making it all so easy.

New Critical Essays on Kurt Vonnegut’s darkly comic work became a symbol for the counterculture of a generation. From his debut novel,  Player Piano (1951) through seminal 1960’s novels such as Cat’s Cradle (1963) …

My eyesight isn’t what it once was. The Kindle permits me to make the print larger. I was amazed at how easy it was to select and download books. I really enjoy reading again

#1 I believe in God, but not to the extent that I’m right of center.
#2 This is the only book I freely admit to having thrown into the trash bin.

New TP Link 8

After multiple attempts at other devices to hold your NUVI in place, this is light years ahead of anything else. The best part is that it is more portable, and stays put. When you leave the vehicle, simply move it so no one thinks you have a GPS in the car. Saves on a potential break in by someone looking to steal your device. Velcro NEVER sticks, and you don’t have to keep cleaning your windshield!
NEW Oster All in

This is a nice watch with good functionality. It will improve your running. I have two major irritations: 1) it takes forever to synch with satellites, 2) it is silly huge.
