BOSTON (AP) ? Employee 401(k) accounts grew nearly 8 percent last quarter as a surging stock market boosted investment returns and worker contributions increased. Investment earnings and contributions can grow tax-free in an employer-sponsored 401(k) account, which is a key reason why they're a popular way to save for retirement. The stock meltdown in 2008 sent the average account balance down to $46,200 by the time the market hit bottom in March 2009. [...] the average balance has risen 10 of 12 quarters, growing a cumulative 61 percent.

Wolfram Alpha releases first desktop PC app for Windows 7, makes homework even easier

Have a habit of letting Wolfram Alpha do your math for you? Well, say hello to one more tool in your computational arsenal -- the electronic homework lackey self-described knowledge engine is now available as a Windows 7 desktop app for $2.99 at the Intel AppUp store. In addition to providing desktop analytics on the works of the Bard, the Wolfram Alpha app features extended copy / paste support for graphics and queries, a full-screen optimized user interface and a special software keyboard with native support for special characters.
