Matthew Lamstein has enjoyed baking healthy and tasty bread for family, neighbors and friends since 1973. His first efforts in bread-baking came through studying and practicing the instructions and techniques contained in the Tassajara Bread Book. Over the years, Matthew has continued to learn the craft of bread baking while working in community bakeries and artisan bread companies in Maine and New Hampshire. Now a Florida resident, Matt has been baking and selling Common Bread in downtown Lake Worth for the past three years.

Town Square Tech Tips
from Lake Worth's Mac and PC Specialists

What Files Should I Backup?
Here's a list that might come in handy when you're trying to move files from one system to another, or when you just want to "be safe". Here's a good list of files and information to consider:

My Documents folder, and any other folder that you've designated as a typical save location.

Check programs that have their own "save" location. For example greeting card programs, video or editing software, publishing programs, and other creation applications have their own folder in which to save files or configuration data.

Write down important system settings that you can't easily save or find a specific file with all the information. For example, your network entries, phone numbers and your network card settings. Also be sure to record any phone numbers and accounts for any programs you use that connect and log on (for example, Online Banking, UVerse, Comcast, etc).

Make a copy of your Windows\favorites folders with all your Browser favorites or Bookmarks.

Make a copy of the data files from your tax or financial programs.

Save your .PST and .PAB files from Outlook (or the comparable data files from your other e-mail program).

If you keep your latest downloads or latest drivers on your hard drive, consider making a backup of that as well on a CD or DVD.Biz Owners: Get more clients!
On Social Media, Participate, Don't Push
When marketing on social media platforms, always keep in mind the 80/20 rule. You should spend 80% of your time sharing, answering questions and interacting with others and only 20% of your time promoting your small business. Stick to this rule and you'll be seen as a true participant, not a pushy sales-person.

If Men Truly Ruled The World
1. Instead of "beer-belly", you'd get "beer-biceps".

Five Reasons Computers
Must Be Female
No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
Even your smallest mistakes are immediately committed to memory for future reference.
The native language used to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
The message, "Bad command or filename," is about as informative as "If you don't know why I'm mad at you, then I'm certainly not going to tell you."

Letters to the editor

Men Rule!

2. Birth control would come in Ale or Lager. 3. Valentine's Day would be moved to February 29th so it would only occur in leap years. 4. On Groundhog Day, if you saw your shadow, you'd get the day off to go drinking. Mother's Day too. 5. St. Patrick's Day, however, would remain exactly the same. But it would be celebrated every month. 6. Garbage would take itself out. 7. Regis and Kathie Lee would be chained to a cement mixer and pushed off the Golden Gate Bridge for the most lucrative pay-per-view event in world history. 8. The only show opposite "Monday Night Football" would be "Monday Night Football from a Different Camera Angle". 9. Tanks would be far easier to rent. 10. Two words, "Ally McNaked". 11. When a cop gave you a ticket, every smart aleck answer you responded with would actually reduce your fine. As in: .....Cop:" You know how fast you were going?"

.....You: "All I know is, I was spilling my beer all over the place."

.....Cop: "Hey nice one. That's $10.00 off". 12. People would NEVER talk about how fresh they felt. 13. Daisy Duke shorts would never go out of style again14. . Every man would get four, real Get Out of Jail Free cards per year15. . Telephones would cut off after 30 seconds of conversation. 16. It would be perfectly legal to steal a sports car, as long as you returned it the following day with a full tank of gas.17. Instead of a fancy, expensive engagement ring, you could present your wife-to-be with a giant foam hand that said "You're #1" 18.When your girlfriend really needed to talk to you during the game, she'd appear in a little box in the corner of the TV screen during a time out. 19. Nodding and looking at your watch would be deemed as an acceptable response to "I love you". 20. The funniest guy in the office would get to be CEO. 21."Sorry I'm late, but I got wasted last night", would be an acceptable excuse for tardiness. 22. At the end of the workday a whistle would blow and you would jump out of your window and slide down the tail of a brontosaurus and right into your car like Fred Flintstone. 23. Lifeguards could remove citizens from beaches for violating the "public ugliness" ordinance. 24.Hallmark would make "Sorry, what was your name again?" cards!

Town Square Biz Tips
Mispelings Show a Luck of Prophessionalism
Even the most carefully crafted messages can be derailed by spelling or grammar errors. It shows a lack of professionalism and can negatively affect the perception of your business. Freelance editors are cheap and effective, and can keep your business’ reputation intact. If you can't afford that, at least use your spelling and grammar checker wisely.
