Jeff started a new job a few weeks ago as a XBRL Financial Reporting Specialist with Bowne & Co. Bowne & Co. is a 235 year old company based in New York with offices in most major US cities and across the world. The company specializes in shareholder communications among other things. His main function will be reviewing client SEC documents for proper taxonomy tagging. XBRL stands for eXtensible Business Reporting Language. It is a XML based computer language that enables computers to read financial documents filed with the SEC. It will have other uses as well as it develops. It has been mandated in the United States for only a little over a year therefore it is an exciting new technology. Last week Jeff traveled up to Dallas for a week of training, which was very detailed. He is very excited about his new job. The greatest thing about the job is that while the hours will be long at times most of the work can be done remotely which allows for greater flexibility in the realm of having active children.

so glad he's found something and ENJOYS it... and that it may be a bit more flexible to give mommy some extra hands and those boys some extra hands-on loving! so glad that things are good with the new job and praying that he continues to really enjoy it.
Way to go, Jeff. We are proud of you.
