01 Ug Netnews infographic - Pin, post, share :
Another barrage of Amazon spoof spams have hit -- this time with a
particularly bad dose of malware. Do not ask if it affects Mac users,
this has not been established yet. But it is a Javascript badware kit,
so it very well may. Just be careful and spread the word to other, less
savvy computer users!

02 Kick Off March Madness with Logos Test: College Sports
It's that time of year again: March Madness. March Madness is the
concentrated hype of 68 teams vying for college basketball's biggest
prize. This year diehard fans are turning to technology when holding
parties in celebration. Well, there is an app for that. Logos Test:
College Sports is an amazingly addictive and fun trivia game that will
put your knowledge to the ultimate test. Get it NOW and start
recognizing sports teams, players, helmets and naming college mascots.

03 An eBook that teaches kids to be responsible with their money
Even if it's just a few pennies, they're worth saving in any
economy. Teaching kids to save at an early age can create positive
habits that will last a lifetime. But, it can also be done in an
entertaining way.

04 Landlording gets Easier!
If you are or have ever been a landlord, you know it is not the
easiest job to have. It can be a challenge to track each Apartments
rents, bills, lease dates, miles and tenant information. You've got to
deal with all the headaches, including all the calls you get -- plumbing
problems on Saturday night at 10 pm . . . furnace goes down on Thanks
giving day at 3 am . . . the boiler bursts on January 25th and it's
4-degrees outside! Been there, done that . . . .

05 Your stuff may be more important than you think
What do you have? Could you remember if suddenly it went away? How
much is it worth? Are you insured properly? People have a way of
accumulating stuff that has real worth -- and possibly value. What would
you do if it all disappeared today?

15 Quotes: Reagan and Twain
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions.
Small people always do that, but the really great make
you feel that you, too, can become great.
Mark Twain
Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession.
I have come to realize that it bears a very close
resemblance to the first.
- Ronald Reagan
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous,
he will not bite you. This is the principal
difference between a dog and a man.
Mark Twain
It is better to deserve honors and not have them
than to have them and not to deserve them.
