There is not a one or even two term solution. No matter how well he does, he'll fall short of the expectations our very out-of-touch society has for him. Hence, he'll fall short of the mark. (Personally, I would have preferred a "damn the torpedoes" attitude; if he had just accepted that he's getting one term and got out there and made a difference, it would be more effective -- and would earn him more respect). In terms of fiscal policy, I think Bernanke is doing a great job. I have faith in him. He's a student of the Great Depression, and I think his policies are effectively avoiding what could be a far, far worse situation. He understands the lessons learned from what our government did leading into the Great Depression and I believe he is succeeding in avoiding a repeat performance. That doesn't mean things are bad -- just that they could be much worse, and could still get much worse. I credit anyone that can turn the ship at this point and start us out of the mess. (Time had a great article on Bernanke in their 2010 year end edition). I certainly don't blame Obama for where we are today. I blame several decades of Republican policy for bringing us to where we are today, starting with diminishing educational programs. It's a huge contrast against the Kennedy-era push to make us the #1 nation in education and science.

I hear people saying how smart he is, and that gives me pause. He has dedicataed his presidency and the Democratic Party to converting America into a fascist syndicalism, such as Musolini did in Italy in the '30''s. Both Musolini and Hitler gained support from LARGE industry by making them profitable and providing cheap labor. Do you see the similarity to HIS PLAN? So, is he smart or is he stupid? And the answer to that depends on whether he is good or evil. If he is evil, he is very smart, but if he is good he is stupid. He can not be both good and smart. I don't believe we can spend our way out of debt, nor tax ourselves into prosperity. I see everything this government does as negative to the economy. Enjoy the upturn from the stimulus which should hit shortly. After that? I just hope...and pray there is a God Who loves us.

Over here in the UK the unemployment rate is massaged downwards by people going onto incapacity benefit or various youth training schemes. As such taking into account all those on some kind of working credit, approx 20-30% of the population here are underworking or underpaid. Worse than that is the fact that approx 40% of those working are doing so for the public sector in some shape or form. One has to wonder what will happen when the pyramid scheme we have built, collapses when the money merry go round stops. After all you can only print money for so long. There does come a time when someone somewhere actually has to do something productive which creates real money!

It does the same as SpanningSync, but absolutely for free. You can sync your mac and Google account in two clicks. Moreover, this tool allows syncing Mac and mobile devices, other Mac or PC computers, Sony PSP, USB drive and store Mac data online. They do not have iPhone support yet, but SyncMate works perfectly on my Mac and HTC. (http://mac.eltima.com/sync-mac.html) Cheers! As for me I use SyncMate for syncing my mac with Google.

Sorry to see that you're having a hard time with virtual printing in Parallels. VMware Fusion 2 did a lot to make printing much more transparent for Windows apps pointing at Mac printers, by shipping a universal print driver with VMware Fusion 2, and making it so all Mac printers just automagically show up in Windows apps. You can see a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8ZWeK25dtU We'd love it if you took at a look at Fusion to help you solve the problem you're having.
