Barack Obama is a master at grabbing and keeping his audience's attention, which is the number one goal of any public speaker. How does he do it? Here are five key lessons from Obama's rhetorical playbook.

Spending on advertising is a lagging indicator for economic recovery. Companies tend to set their budgets on annual cycles, pegging their adspend to a percentage of sales. Even the most nimble of advertisers only adjusts their advertising on a quarterly basis. So any sign of an uptick in the revenues of advertising agency holding companies could mean that the recession -- at least financially -- is over. (Jobs, of course, are another thing.) That sign has arrived.

Talking with your parents about their estate is important to protect your family’s finances, but the conversation can be difficult at best. Here's what you need to ask and how to do it.

• Defending the Caveman
  Defending the Caveman is a hilarious play about the ways men and women relate to each other. Without taking sides, this insightful comedy discusses the ongoing battle for understanding between the sexes. Through its hysterical observations into contemporary feminism, masculine sensitivity and the erogenous zones, Defending the Caveman mines the common themes in relationships that go straight through the funny bone.
• John Prine
  They give him Grammys as a folk artist, but you cant really categorize a genius as big as John Prines. Like Kurt Vonneguts early novels, Prines songs are notable for both their bite and their warmth -- the gentle surface of ballads such as All the Best often hide a dark heart, while angrier numbers like Angel from Montgomery always seem to forgive the targets of their indignation. Dont miss your chance to see this true American songwriting legend.
