      Bates Stamps' Days May Be Numbered
      Who else cheered upon reading that headline? A document-based data model, rather than a page-based approach, eliminates the text extraction and image creation steps from the processing stage and cuts the cost of that process in half. Documents become available in the review platform much faster -- as imaging often accounts for as much as 90 percent of the time to process. This enables early case assessment without any processing, by simply dragging and dropping a native file or a PST straight into the application -- which cannot be achieved with the page-based batch process.

Savvy investors who have uncovered this little secret have been quietly making great returns on their investments. With an average annual return of 10% for the past 50 years, they have good reasons to keep it under the radar and why Salomon Brothers rate rare stamps among the top four investments of the Twentieth Century. There are many reasons why rare stamps make such a good investment. Among the reasons, there is a high demand from a huge emerging market and coupled with a diminishing supply of investment quality stamps, prices will continue to rise.

      Stamps in Malaysia
      Stamps, I did collect them when I was younger. I remember I had a bunch of books with all kinds of stamps. One thing that always amazed me were the stamps of tropical countries, Brazil, African countries, Thailand, yes I even had a few Malaysian stamps too. They were always very colorful, populated with exotic birds and mamals. In Holland we had “boring stamps”. Was that the reason I forgot the stamps? I am not sure. In some way I guess it’s part of the process of growing up and find other more interesting things to do. I went into judo, started collecting music, read hundreds of books, went on the road …  and… forgot the stamps. It came all back this morning when I went to the post office here in Sitiawan Malaysia. I had to mail something to Holland. The lady gave me a few white stamps with colorful birds. Wow…. we didn’t have that in Holland. OFCOURSE we didn’t have them. we didn’t have the birds too! But it made me realise

      Massachusetts Tax Stamps ~ Hidden Costs in Selling Your Home
      As a Realtor representing many home owners selling their homes, it has come to my attention numerous times that many people are unaware of the tax on selling a home in Massachusetts. This tax is levied on the sale of any home sold in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. Presently the tax rate is $4.56 dollars per thousand.In other words if you sell a home for $500,000 your tax would be $4.56 x 500 for a total cost of $2280. When you have certain expectations for what your check will be coming from a closing, a short fall of $2280 would not be a pleasant experience.This is one of the largest expenses a home owner would have when selling their property in Metrowest Massachusetts aside from paying a Real Estate commission.Some of the other expenses in selling a home in Massachusetts would be a Title V Septic inspection if you do not have town sewer. The typical cost for a Title V inspection runs between $600 - $900 depending on how easy it is for the title V inspector to get

      Food Stamps to buy junk?
      I was in the store behind a woman in line with 2 kids. What I saw made me search out more information about food stamps, food stamp fraud, and shopping behavior. This family bought a couple gallons of milk with food stamps. It took quite a while, because not only did they have to fill out their little ticket and run it like a check through the machine, they had to run it as a separate transaction. You see, I don't think the government would be happy knowing they gave food stamps to this family if they knew what else they were buying.When I sought out program requirements, I had to ask myself whether or not this particular family looked like someone who would qualify. Assuming she was married, she must have a household income of less than $1,613. The woman in front of me wearing nice clothes, sipping a Starbucks-whatever, and talking on a brand new Treo/Blackberry-type cellphone certainly didn't look like she was insolvent.I suspect I had witnessed Food Stamp fraud.Here's a little ex
