Welcome to the March 5, 2009 edition of carnival of the vanities.

DWSUWF presents State of the Union - The Musical! “Chicago” Edition posted at Divided We Stand United We Fall, saying, “What better way to frame the SOTU, media and blog reactions than within the lyrics of a Broadway show tune? Tonight there is only one possible choice - “Razzle Dazzle” from the musical Chicago.”

Brian McKay presents Open an E-Trade IRA and Get 100 Free Trades posted at MonitorBankRates.com, saying, “E*Trade Financial is offering a deal of 100 free trades for opening an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). The promotional deal ends on April 15th 2009.”

Credit Shout presents 7 Credit and Identity Scams to Avoid posted at CreditShout.

Aparna presents Burning incense and candles bad for health? posted at Beauty and Personality Grooming, saying, “Burning incense and candles for long has been a part of religious ceremonies and rituals in Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity and other major religions of the world. The pleasant aroma emanating from the smoldering incense sticks might send you into a state of ecstasy and trigger the spiritual mood in you but did you know that it causes the release of some harmful pollutants that is hazardous to your health?”

jim presents Investment Clubs posted at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity.

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Ode To Bobby “Kenneth the Page” Jindal posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

Annette Berlin presents How To Grow Hydroponic Herbs posted at Craft Stew, saying, “I’m not much of a gardener. I’m too afraid of snakes and spiders to enjoy playing in the mud. The one exception to my purple thumb is hydroponic herbs. Growing hydroponic herbs is so easy, even I can do it. It’s a no-brainer.”

Silicon Valley Blogger presents myFICO To Drop Experian Credit Score and Report: One Less FICO Score posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “Thanks!”

The Smarter Wallet presents Amazon Kindle Review: Electronic Book Reader Pros and Cons posted at The Smarter Wallet, saying, “Thanks!”

Joe Manausa presents First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit | Tallahassee Real Estate Blog posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “In case you did not hear the good news, the American Recovery And Reinvestment Act of 2009 (which President Obama signed into law last week) included significant improvements to the temporary First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit. While many might view this as a great benefit aimed only at the first-time homebuyer, the reality is that it will help stabilize the housing market by bringing more buyers into an inventory-laden problem in need of more demand.”

Joe Manausa presents A Small But Significant Shift In The Housing Market posted at Really Better Real Estate, saying, “One key trend to pay attention to in any local real estate market is the movement of the sales success trend. What this measures is the total number of home sold divided by the total of homes listed (put on the market) during the same period of time.”

debergerac78 presents Senator Bunning’s public statement was NOT an apology posted at The Business Ethics Blog, saying, “Senator Bunning predicts a Supreme Court judge’s death by cancer and end up way off the mark. It’s pretty amazing how politicians perform double-speak in order to side step the most rudimentary of responsibilities, as if apologies will make them less than human.”

Barry Wright III presents Making the Little Things Rich posted at 3stylelife.

steven germain presents Healthy Eating posted at Rough Fractals, saying, “How to eat healthy and socialize at the same time…”

Michael Miles presents The Science of blue feathers posted at Effortless Abundance.

Marcus Smith presents Will You Please Shut Up?? (How to Handle Distractions and Hecklers) posted at MarcusASmith.com.
