I use paypal's Money Market and like to keep close tabs on the 7-Day Average Yield, but could not find a place that shows the yields based on past 7-day Yields. I like to see the changes in any of investments via it be paypal or my IRA or Bank Savings. So every 7-day's I'm going to post the Yield change for paypal since I could not find it any other place. If you like to watch the change like I do, feel free to stop by ever week!
This weeks 7-day Average Yield as of 6-19-08 is a competitive return of 2.34%
For more information, check out paypal's money market page.

I'll take McCain over Obama
I think I have decided even though I'm not fully in support for McCain I would take him any day over that useless Change of a person Obama who all he says is change for this and change for that but never offers how he is going to make the change. For that, I vote for McCain so I can vote against Obama

Unemployment extensions 39 weeks now, what a joke!!!!
What really gets me is Rep. Sander Levin (D - Michigan) and Rep. Peter Welch ( D- Vermont) and the rest of the Democrats in Congress who want to use our tax money and other savings, for the unemployed to stay unemployed. Just recently I was watching C-SPAN and listening to these baffling idiots say how extending the allowed time spans for an unemployed person to stay unemployed from 26 weeks (already past half a year) extend another 13 weeks equaling a grand total for someone to stay unemployed to 39 weeks. Yes 39 weeks almost 10 months. Now my question to you is how is giving money to someone going to help them get unemployed? How is this going to get us out of debit?
We can't sit and give people who don't work money and expect to make money and get out of debit, to get out of debit you have to sell products and export products while lowering our total imported products. One example of our debit going up is due to the amount of oil we import. Because of the price of oil we have to pay more and we spend more on the imported oil raising our debit. Now lets think about this.... If we can reduce our cost of oil and gasoline we can reduce the amount of money we spend, in return reducing the debit, and allowing companies and people to have more money to spend, allowing more people to get jobs, hence allowing our economy to flourish and grow.
Or we can listen to the democrat like Michigan Rep. Sander Levin who said how dare we even think about bringing oil into this debate about unemployment. What I ask Rep. Sander Levin is what he thinks the cause of this high unemployment rate is from? People..... everything we do this world revolves around energy, what we need to do is build more nuclear power plants, invest in researching new energy....... and here is an idea find new oil spots to drill at within our own country , allowing us to not depend on these middle eastern countries that make us pay $4 + on a gallon of gas. If we keep going the rate we are going we will be seeing $200 a barrel for crude oil, causing more people to not find new jobs because they can't afford the gas to go to job interviews or to even go back and forth to work.
What I'm trying to say is we can't just give money to people who our unemployed, it's not going to help people get a job by just giving them free money. This money should be put towards investing in new energy technology while also allowing us to drill within out own country for oil, The gas price is set based on the future if you did not know that, well you do now. If we say we are going to start drilling in America again for more oil, and allow new nuclear plants to be built in America we will then allow the price of oil and gasoline to drop to an affordable price. Drop our dependence on these middle easter countries and allow us to pull out of the wars going on there, not have our economy affected if someone dictator leader said he is going to blow up some other country. We will be Dependant on all this and again allow our debit amount to lower.Another idea we could sell oil to other countries again and oh my make a profit and allow new jobs to be created in America again!!
How Dare I say it, something to think about!!!!

Linux/ Computer Tip of the Day 4-26-08
This is a new feature of the blog I'm going to start. Every day a computer related tip will be posted giving tips, commands and much more, all helping you master your technical skills.
If you use Linux and like to have a clean system, you're going to love this tip. Lets start by cleaning out your temporary directory, the folder with all the junk from viewing pdf's & Images, etc. On some systems the directory is cleared when you restart the computer, or the programs clean up after themselves, in my case they don't. Hence every month I have to manually clean out the directory. If you want to do the same go into the /tmp file as root (so you have the privileges) then delete what's needed such as files in /tmp/kde-username (username as in your accounts name).

It's been a while since I lasted posted a blog. It's my senior year of school, and I recently decided to join the Golf team at Delmar High and have done ok so far, still have a lot to improve on. Since the lack of time to update regularly I feel I should leave you with a nice little counter that counts down to the release date of openSUSE 11.0

Make Sunbird shine with extensions
Sunbird, Mozilla's calendar application, supports extensions just as Firefox and Thunderbird do. What kind of extensions work with a calendar? How about being able to get a weather forecast when you're setting up a golf date, or exporting your desktop calendar to a Web service?
