    Unemployment extension still undecided as over a million lose benefits!!!

    Or just round up all of the illegal immigrants taking jobs from citizens and get people off their high horse that certain jobs are "beneath" them. Social safety nets should be in place for those who can't provide for themselves, not those who refuse to do so.

    Banks allow members to pay with time, not cash

    Barter exchanges have been around for some time. These events ARE taxable and the barter exchange will send you a 1099 at the end of the year. The best way to use these things is to find something that you want, then do the appropriate amount of work to pay it off. There's a ton of crap...

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    But that's part of the problem, this guy ISN'T willing to work for half the pay. He sits back and does a CBA on the diff between unemployment and what a potential job might pay and then decides if he wants it. He can go without Starbucks for some time, and has already maxed out his cards on...

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    I always find it amazing that the hero (anti-hero if you will) of the story always gets the job just in the nick of time before the ol' unemployment insurance runs out. Makes you wonder if this guy had 4 weeks instead of 99 he may have been employed sooner. In the words of Judge Smailes...

    Hey has anyone ever used the data from disk trading? http://disktrading.is99.com/disktrading/ I have read on another forum that it is just OK, though there are some gaps and patches. I'm not trying to optimize or create a strategy with it... just trying to get results of some existing...

    Building your own trading computer

    I built almost this same system as the OP at roughly the same cost-- only went with 6GB instead of 12GB but the cost of win 7 64-bit pro made up the difference. Went 750 watt power supply and a different CPU cooler, but cheaped out on the dual video cards, 4 monitors. Similar systems I...

    Zero Hedge: European Banks Now Feverishly Betting Against Euro to prompt bailouts

    Well I agree with you on the austerity measures, but little by little, the rioting ends, then turns to complacency, then apathy, then reality. So you're 56 and not getting your retirement... do you A) sit around bitch and moan and starve, or B) run fishing charters for a few years for...

    Migrating an automated system

    No I would be open to hiring a programmer... but I'd have to be sure that they could get the job done. This has proven to be more difficult than originally thought.

    Migrating an automated system

    yes Lee, that is part of the problem, as well as the way that the system calls orders. I have asked tirelessly if they had adapters so that I could use my current platfrom and the answer was an emphatic NO. And Tradestar, my code stinks, it doesn't suck! :D :D

    Migrating an automated system

    Thanks for the reply, Tradelink. Unfortunately, my broker is not one of your supported brokers. Though there is one on your beta testing side that could be a possibility. But I can't change brokers because of my cap intro agreement.

    Migrating an automated system

    Ok so I have an automated system that I am migrating from one platform to another. Due to some complications in order entry, I need some help changing the code to fit the new platform. Language is C#. The brokerage has offered to have their people do the coding for me, but I want to protect...
