questions at http://www.pestcontrolcanada.com/Questions/recent_pest_control_questions%20page2.htm
Pop Quiz
Question
How many of the following tips are really good ideas?
01. Flies or bees bothering you? Spray them with hair spray and they
will take a quick dive.
02. Sealed envelope - Put in the freezer for a few hours, then slide a knife
under the flap. The envelope can then be resealed
03. Use Empty toilet paper roll to store appliance cords in. It keeps them
neat and you can write on the roll what appliance it belongs to.
(Vernon Jensen, my father, always stored extension cords using toilet and
paper towel cores.)
04. For icy door steps in freezing temperatures: get warm water and
put
Dawn
dish washing liquid in it. Pour it all over the steps. They won't
refreeze. (Works in
New Hampshire
until the rain hits.)
05 Permanent marker on appliances/counter tops (like store receipt
BLUE!) Try rubbing alcohol on paper towel.
06. Spray a bit of perfume on the light bulb in any room to create a lovely
light scent in each room when the light is turned on.
07. Place fabric softener sheets in dresser drawers and your clothes
will smell freshly washed for weeks to come. You can also do this with
towels and linen.
08. Candles will last a lot longer if placed in the freezer for at
least 3 hours prior to burning.
09. To clean artificial flowers, pour some salt into a paper bag and
add the flowers. Shake vigorously as the salt will absorb all the dust
and dirt and leave your artificial flowers looking like new! Works like
a charm!
10. To get rid of itch from mosquito bites, try applying soap on the area
and you will experience instant relief.
11. Ants, ants, ants everywhere ... Well, they are said to never cross
a chalk line. So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor or
wherever ants tend to march. See for yourself. (I have my doubts
on this one.)
12. Use air-freshener to clean mirrors. It does a good job and better still,
leaves a lovely smell to the shine.
13. When you get a splinter, reach for the scotch tape before resorting
to tweezers or a needle. Simply put the scotch tape over the splinter,
then pull it off. Scotch tape removes some splinters painlessly and
easily.
Answer
All the above are worth a try, but I have my
doubts that Number 11 when it comes to microscopic farrow ants in
Texas

Mortgage and loan calculators are one of the first
steps in the mortgage process. First, find out what kind of mortgage works best
for you. There are many choices out there! Do you want a fixed rate mortgage, or
an adjustable rate mortgage? Then use these mortgage calculators to determine
the amount of mortgage you can afford with the Pre Qualify Calculator. Also
determine your new monthly mortgage payments. Mortgage calculators can also be
used to calculate payments on debt consolidation mortgage loan and see your
monthly savings! Use the Refinance Mortgage Calculator for this. Make it simple
to work out how

Question
Where can you find a good retirement calculator?
"Financial Tools on the Web," by Kelly Greene, The Wall Street Journal,
July 21, 2006, Page B5 ---
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB115350728686713845.html?mod=todays_us_money_and_investing
Many readers emailed us notes like these when we
announced the launch of "Ask Encore" this month and solicited questions
about retirement-related financial issues.
Two of the most comprehensive
calculators we have come across are at
analyzenow.com, a Web site by Henry Hebeler, an
author and retired Boeing Co. executive. Begin by clicking on "Free
Programs." A preretirement planner there collects the information Mr.
Guttman lists, and can help you put together budgets for current expenses as
well as those expected in retirement to see if your savings are on track.
Retirement expenses such as medical bills (including Medicare Part B
premiums) could rise more quickly than inflation; this tool lets you tinker
with anticipated increases in future costs. One caution: To make your
predictions as accurate as possible, plan on spending at least a couple of
hours going through old financial records.
The postretirement calculator cranks
out the amount you can spend each year, using your age, number of years you
want the investments to last, taxes, income from investments (other than
your home), reserves, debt, Social Security, pensions, and any other income.
If you have a pension with no cost-of-living adjustment, make sure that's
taken into account. In the spot for reserves, be sure to include savings for
future home repairs and car purchases, too, Mr. Hebeler says.
A calculator at
troweprice.com
figures out your nest egg's chances for outlasting you
by examining how it would perform in 500 hypothetical future economic
scenarios. (Click the applicable link below "individual investors," then go
to the "investment planning & tools" tab and click "retirement planning."
There, you'll see the link to the retirement-income calculator.) WSJ.com
also offers retirement-planning tools at
WSJ.com/BookTools.
Firecalc.com
uses investment returns since 1871 to figure out how
often your strategy would have paid off historically. Of course, tools like
these come with a big caveat: Nobody can predict the future. But if, say,
firecalc.com indicates that your nest egg might have survived the Great
Depression and other financial calamities that have hit the U.S. in the past
135 years, at least you can take comfort in that.
• Ask Encore/Focus on
Retirement is a weekly column answering readers' questions about
retirement and personal finance -- from annuities and bonds, to trusts
and inheritance issues. Send questions to

"clip©" service. This is free, but only provides an
abstract of the article. If you want the actual article, there is a
charge to get it through them. I have it set up for daily reports on
"xml or xbrl" and "PCAOB", but you can set your own
frequency.
In addition,
you can access articles at:
1) http://www.accountantsworld.com/
. I use them to host my website (http://www.papodaca.com) and find the
articles are quite useful. I point my students to my website and have
them check the "Daily News", but you can access the same
information directly. Access to the articles is generally free.
2) http://www.accountingweb.com/
Articles often duplicate the ones on AccountantsWorld, but that isn't a
surprise as they both use search bots to pull relevant articles.
3) http://www.smartpros.com
Another good source.
4) http://www.dushkin.com/powerweb/
PowerWeb is free with many textbooks. PowerWeb has a "Dynamic
Accounting Profession" section as well. Very good. The card that
comes with the text gives you a code to register (for that text), but so
far, all of the accounting items that I have accessed have not required
me to register. Registration also gives you access to the Northern Light
premium sources. Lots of good tips for the students as well.
I put these
links in my syllabi, and require the students to bring in an article
sometime during the semester. The only requirement is that it have some
vague connection to the course (and some of them are VERY vague), and
they give the class a brief verbal abstract. It is part of their
participation.
Not terribly
successful, but it is working better each semester.
I hope that
this information is useful.
