Just want to clarify a few misconceptions.
A lot of people thought that husband needed split his asset and provide
spousal support indefinitely in US. It is not the case in most states.
In most states, spousal support is limited. If the marriage is short (i.e
less than 3 years), there is usually no support. Even for long marriage,
spousal support is limited to less than half of the number of years married.
In some states, for example, TX, spousal support is limited to 3 years. Of

This is a common misconception. Olive oil is not healthy compared to others.
It's just more expensive. Canola oil is more healthy (lowest in saturated
fat) and has a higher smoke point.
Olive oil, especially extra virgin, should only be used cold in salads or
with bread, for the taste. Deep fry food in olive oil is not a good idea at
all!
For people using olive oil to do stir-fry, remember once the oil is heated,
it has lost most of its healthy portions due to its low smoke point. You are

The truth is at normal listening levels, very little power is needed to get
the most out of a relatively efficient speaker. Whether you have an 80W amp
or a 220W amp, the channel still follows Ohm's law. Normal listening volume
means voltage is low, which means current is also low. The load to the
receiver should be close to constant around 8 ohms. We're really talking
like 10-20 watts.

it's a misconcept that all S&P 500 index funds perform equally (minus the ER
). You shouldn't just look for lower fees, there are at least two other
factors that I know of can impact long term performance of index funds. One
is tax efficiency (that is related to how often the index funds buy and sell
stocks) and tracking errors (how closely the fund is tracking the
corresponding index). Obviously the former matters less if you have the
funds in a tax-deferred account, the latter is important reg

Whether you *want* to be affected by the interest rate changes or not,

Emotionally, one form of the loss might be easier to swallow than the other,
to some people. I can understand that, but it's still a misconception. A
loss is a loss. In a very efficient market, which is the case for bond

There are too many misconceptions in this thread. Stateful or stateless is
not the difference between SOAP and REST. Most people use either in
stateless way. SOAP provides some support in the spec for stateful requests.
But nothing stops you from building your custom plumbing in REST service
for stateful requests/responses.
Overall, stateful is an anti-pattern for scalability, but it's not the
reason you choose REST over SOAP. Because SOAP is usually stateless too.
