With the heavy lifting of baby-rearing behind you, now may be the time to head back to work. For those already working and no longer chained to daycare fees, perhaps it's a good time to go after a new career opportunity. Or, the empty house may have your biological clock ticking for just one more baby?
For some reason, society (and especially moms), get caught up in terminology. Moms are categorized as SAHM (stay-at-home mom), WAHM (work-at-home mom), or career mom, as though having a specific "mom label" denotes a certain level of superiority or accomplishment. In the end, regardless of our employment status, we are all moms
I don't judge my friends who work full-time (I'm completely proud and impressed by their success) and I don't judge my friends who don't work at all (I'm amazed by their patience and ability to put their careers on hold). The trouble is that moms feel the need to defend their position (myself included) whenever they feel it's being questioned, and sometimes it gets downright vicious. We've already established that there's no "perfect" solution that works for everyone, so it seems wrong that anyone has to compare themselves to anyone else (and feel guilty or insecure), but we're never going to get past it, it seems.
What's wrong with being moms? What's so awful about this that we feel we need to shout at the world that we are so much more than moms, that we are so much more than everyone else? Fighting fire with fire rarely works and this is yet another case of it. If you were truly proud to be a mom, you wouldn't have to validate your choice on Facebook.
I know that you seldom have a hot cup of coffee or tea. I know that your attention is always divided, often diverted from a moment to moment basis, and you cannot ever count on completing a task in the one go. I know that you probably don't get any down time when you're on your own at home, unless you have a single child who still naps in the daytime. I know the challenges you deal with daily, usually with no peer support or backup. The toddler tantrums, the toilet training accidents, the food battles, the food on the floor, the crayons on the wall, the sibling rivalry, the baby that never seems to stop crying.
I am unemployed again. I'm scared we won't be able to pay the bills. I'm scared that we have set up a life that there is no way we can afford without a second salary, and a decent one at that. I'm scared that I am doing my son a disservice by pulling him from daycare to stay home with me, a mom who loves him dearly but prefers to not be a stay-at-home mom...
How can women who've "opted-out" update their skills and their resume after having been absent from the workforce for 10 years? While being at home with the kids likely won't replace the knowledge gained by working corporately, I would argue that being at home with kids could actually hone the following handy talents.
When does being a housewife become too high risk? Shouldn't we as women be able to head out into the workforce if all of a sudden we're the sole financial provider? As someone who lives in one of the most expensive cities in the world, I can't get my head around how women can walk away from their careers without a worry in the world. Isn't it irresponsible?

What Is the Proper Perspective for Monetary Policy Optimality?
In forward-looking models for monetary policy analysis, the conditions for full conditional optimality are not time invariant, and as a consequence imply an incentive each period for the central bank to depart from its previous optimized plan. The conditional "commitment" plan is therefore strategically incoherent. Discretionary optimality does not have this problem, but yields inferior performance. A "timeless perspective" policy rule proposed by Woodford (1999, 2003) is intended to overcome the incoherence and noncredibility of the commitment plan while yielding performance superior to that of discretionary policy behavior; this rule has received much attention. A fourth "fully timeless" alternative differs slightly from the timeless perspective rule; it is unambiguously superior from an unconditional perspective but does not dominate from the conditional perspective. The paper discusses comparisons at some length and briefly considers the sustainability of these policy strategies.

Everyone should have a hero - someone who stands for everything they hold dear, exemplifies a life lived well...and drinks every freaking day. We believe we've found that man in Matt Chimento, a young man who has made it his mission to visit 1,000 in 2006. Let's repeat that for the hard of hearing - he's going to visit one thousand bars in 365 days. Some quick math says that's an average of nearly three different bars per day...now that's some gumption.
We first heard about Matt's quest a couple months ago when we stumbled across his MySpace page, but we were convinced that boredom, scheduling problems or liver failure would put an end to it soon enough. Shows what we know - as we reach the halfway point of 2006, Matt is celebrating his 500th bar in Manhattan this Saturday, June 24th. Sadly, we can't make it, but if anybody makes it down to the Mad River Grille we'd love to hear about just how much he punishes his liver at each appearance.
Two (possibly) interesting facts:

Thought it'd be cool to start a thread with some funny horse pictures, to give us all a laugh when we need it. Some days can be tough and I know a daily dose of horse plus some funny always makes my day. Pictures can be your own or from other websites, let's see 'em! Everyone can come back and look through the pictures and know things will get better, and horses are truly the best medicine! (:
Found this one today and thought it was perfect to start it off!

This tour was completely worth it. Our guide, Mr E, had a terrific stage presence. It was so much fun to see how well he wove whatever was really happening around us. A truck rumbling by noisily when he was recreating a prayer that saved the first settlers, so he dramatically yelled at them that they were getting in the way of his being saved. It was very easy to see that Mr E was really invested in all the stories and legends he was telling us.He'd obviously done a TON of research about the stories on his own, going around and talked to various owners and neighbors of the places that are haunted. He actually got to go into the cells of the Last Days under the court house once, by approaching a security guard when he arrived at an event unexpectedly early. This gave an extra depth to his descriptions, as they were so vivid coming from him He was so much fun to listen to.
Mr E was very good at working with the younger people on the tour, giving them a chance to engage on their own level, as well as working and adapting various facts for people who were from either elsewhere in Canada, or the States such as myself. We were all given the feeling that we were being included on an equal level.
At the very end of the tour, after answering any questions we had, Mr E even helped us with directions back to the nearest metro.
I would highly recommend this tour to other people, visitors and locals alike, and my hostess has said that she would like to take more people who she sees to see the tour as well.

Great actors that have you captivated with their stories from the beginning. Rain or shine this tour takes place. We had a really rainy night, which just added to fun. Got to see parts of the city which we had never seen before.

The decision not to tow the cars of unlicensed drivers is very ill conceived. Are the citizens of Mountain View go to pay a law enforcement officer to wait and make sure the individual who picks the car up is licensed and insured. The auto should be towed. The next thing the city will decide is driver don't need insurance. .........Just Think About It...........

Do we give the gun a person uses to murder another person with back to their friend?
A vehicle in the wrong hands is a lethal weapon.
Driving a car without a license is against the law, thus a crime. Impound the car then auction it off (no matter who it belongs to, unless it is stolen) to help defray the cost of prosecuting the criminals.

It seems to me either the law enforcement and/or city council is coming up with ideas to overlook and not enforce all existing laws so that they can appeal to certain ethnic groups at average tax payer's expense. This is shameful. How about hiring undocumented people to work in law enforcement and serve in the city council. Why don't these morons come up with a proclamation that no US laws apply to undocumented aliens.

You starred in Star Wars as a Jedi knight.
Darth Vader killed you during your lightsaber fight.
People still love those Star Wars films because they're fun.
It was genius when George Lucas cast you as Obi-Wan.
You returned as a ghost in episodes five and six.
Your contribution improved those three flicks.

In an abrupt closing, grace be with you [all], the apostle places Timothy and the entire community in God's loving care. As in the letter's opening greeting (1:2), grace signifies the whole of God's love and care for his people, coming to those who cannot earn it—an encouraging reminder that despite the awesome responsibility to pursue godliness in all parts of life, the Christian stands by grace alone. What Paul has said to Timothy and the Christian leaders he has said to all.

Wade Mason had been to Hell--and escaped. Shackled in iron manacles, the fleeing inmate traveled to Purgatory to claim his newborn son. He arrived at Callie Quinn's house ready to do battle. But the beautiful angel who guarded his child stripped him defenseless by plopping the crying bundle of joy straight into his unsuspecting arms. They just as surely as she'd released him from his chains, Callie freed his heart. And Wade knew he'd found Heaven in her embrace. When the intimidating outlaw showed up on her doorstep, Callie vowed she would fight tooth and nail to protect the infant entrusted to her. After all, what did a hardened felon know about babies? But one heated kiss told Callie that Wade understood all about tender care. And soon she realized he might be the convict, but she was prisoner to his touch, to his desires ... to his love.

I would like to understand why the following can't be applied to h2:
item-page h2:first-child a{
I can't understand why h2 is not getting the styles.
Thanks in advanced for your time and help.
Because the `h2` is *not* the first child, the `h1` is the first child element of `.item-page`. You're probably looking for `h2:first-of-type` but that is not supported by IE7 & IE8.
This reply has been reported for inappropriate content.
First, you need a period in front of your class (.item-page). Next, you need to move the :first-child behind the 'a'. So it will look like this instead:
.item-page h2 a:first-child
First item-page should be `.item-page`, but assuming that one was just a copy-paste typo. Well h1 is the first-child of item-page, rather than h2. If you'd want the h2 to get that style, maybe you would be looking for `:first-of-type` selector.
There's a few ways you could get around this using descendant, sibling or adjacent selectors.
Is the format of .item-page always going to be the same pattern?
Yes, the missing dot was a copy/paste typo.
:first-of-type did the work.
I thought that :first-child meant the first h2 in .item-page …
Thanks a lot for clarifying that.
@landysaccount – :first-of-type is indeed handy but I'd recommend against using it for core styling at this point due to browser support. It might be better to use alternative (sneakier) selectors instead to get around that and ensure wide support.

Dana Rudolph started a blog for LGBT families — and helped spearhead a movement.
Dana Rudolph, the founder of LGBT parenting site Mombian, doesn't mind when people look twice at her spouse and their son. "Adorable babies are probably the greatest bridge builder for LGBT families," she says brightly. A former vice-president at Merrill Lynch, Rudolph left her job to be a full-time parent shortly after her partner Helen had a child with one of Rudolph's eggs; she started Mombian two years later, in 2005. "I noticed there weren't many sites with practical information forums for LGBT parents," she recalls. "I thought there was a need for something that sat at the intersection of gay sites and parenting sites, and was both practical and fun." Her son is now 9 years old and Mombian has evolved into a major resource for LGBT families and those who hope to start one.
Rudolph is right that happy LGBT families may be the strongest weapon in the fight for marriage equality, particularly in light of Justice Antonin Scalia's recent comments about whether gay parents might be "harmful" to children (research shows that they are not). She hopes her site will help other gay parents lead by example, too: It features reviews of LGBT-friendly TV shows and children's books, information about adoption services that are welcoming to the LGBT community, and highlights of LGBT-related legal battles occurring around the country. Last week, the site was cited in the Times' profile of Mary Bonauto, a lawyer who spearheaded the fight for marriage equality in Massachusetts.
Of course, Rudolph's ultimate dream is that there wouldn't be a need for her website to exist, but she's optimistic about the direction things are moving. Every June, she hosts Blogging for LGBT Families Day, a sort of "blogging carnival" for gay and straight supporters of LGBT parenting; participation has gone up steadily every year. We talked to her last week about the challenges she faces both as a lesbian mom and the face of the LGBT parenting movement.
What made you decide to start your website?
Most LGBT sites were mostly focused on younger, single people at the time, so I thought there was a need for something that sat at the intersection of gay sites and parenting sites, and was both practical and fun.
You don't write much about your personal parenting experiences. Why is that?
I didn't feel that a diary blog would be that interesting. My family has a pretty normal existence, and not everyone needs to know what my child had for breakfast. It made more sense to do something that involved my perspective and experience as a lesbian mom, but wasn't just all about me.
What was the process that you went through for having your son?
We had our son biologically. We used my egg but my spouse carried. I say "spouse," but we weren't actually legally married until a few years later. It was just the way we wanted to do it — we both wanted to participate in a physical way and to have a connection. I wouldn't necessarily recommend what we did for all couples. It is a more complicated process and involved a lot of needles and injections for both moms, but it was the way we wanted to do it, and we were lucky enough to have medical insurance coverage for us.
At the time, you were quite high up at Merrill Lynch. Did you have a lot of support in your workplace?
Very much. My office was very accepting. I actually started the first LGBT employee network there. I found that there was some education to be done at first, but as a company, Merrill Lynch has been a leader in LGBT outreach; they sponsor one if not more national LGBT organizations. I can't say the same for every branch office Merrill had — there are hundreds of branches around the country, and some of the ones in more conservative states wouldn't have been so supportive. But my co-workers threw us a baby shower, and did that sort of thing. There was another straight woman in the office who was adopting a baby at the same time, so they had showers for the two of us, and neither of us was actually pregnant.
Did you eventually leave because you wanted to sort of become a full-time advocate?
No. There were some reorganization going on and I chose to leave. My spouse had been pregnant and then stayed home with our son at the time right after he was born. But we then decided to both throw our resumes into the ring, and whoever got the best offer would have to go to work while the other one would get to stay home with the child. That's one of the nice things about being in a relationships where there are no preconceptions about defined roles and who stays home and who doesn't. Then my spouse got the better offer, and so she went back to work and I stayed home and was pretty much a full-time mom for a few years. Last year, after eight years of working on the blog and doing some freelancing, I went back to outside work.
So since you started your website, I'm sure the issues have evolved. What's been the biggest change that you've noticed?
In general, there's a lot more visibility for LGBT families both within the gay media and also in the mainstream media. Even mainstream parenting sites usually have at least one LGBT blogger who writes for them now, which is great to see. And of course the marriage equality conversation has evolved as well, although there is a different between marriage rights and parental rights, and they're not always simultaneous. Not every parent wants to or can get married. In Iowa, same-sex couples can marry, but there's at least one lesbian couple that's still fighting to get both moms' names on the birth certificate. So there are still hurdles, but there's definitely been progress, and if you look on the national polls, support for same-sex couples has changed greatly during the past decade.
Are there different challenges that you face as a lesbian mom that you don't see for male gay parents?
I think for gay men it's definitely harder breaking into the moms' groups that exist for parents of young children, gay or straight. It does tend to be a female-dominated world. In some ways I do think we had it easier [than gay male parents], especially because we chose the biological route to getting pregnant, even though it was still complicated. The Williams Institute at UCLA, which is basically the biggest think tank on LGBT demographics, just did a study on the number of male gay parents versus female gay parents. They looked at people under age 50, both single and coupled, and found that nearly half of LGBT women, nearly 48 percent, and 20 percent of LGBT men are raising a children under age 18. So there are more lesbian parents than male gay parents, for whatever reason.
What are some difficulties you personally face as a lesbian mom?
We live in the greater Boston area, so on a local level people are pretty accepting, although there are always a few things. Sometimes we'll get a school form that says "father and mother" and not "parent and parent" instead. And it's not just important for families like ours — some children may live with a single divorced or widowed parent, for example, or with grandparents. So we haven't encountered any overt bias, but there are places where I think more of an effort could be made to be more inclusive.
What about on a national level?
The lack of legal and federal rights impact us a lot financially. For example, when I was staying home and taking care of our child, I couldn't contribute to an IRA without an income, whereas a married person could have her working partner contribute to a spousal IRA. So that's a maximum of $5,000 a year that we could have been putting away in a retirement account, but we weren't able to because we weren't considered legally married by the federal government. That's one of the reasons I started the blog. I wanted to figure out a way to earn at least $5,000 a year that I could put away towards retirement while staying home. Also, my spouse has to pay a federal income tax on my medical benefits, and if we were married that wouldn't be taxable. All of those economic hits add up to money that we can't put towards our child's education, college, baby needs, family vacations, things like that.
How optimistic are you about the current Supreme Court cases?
I would like to be optimistic! I'm not as convinced that they'll overturn Prop 8 or make a broad ruling, but at the same time there are so many technical legal issues that are beyond my levels of legal expertise so I don't want to make predictions. But the fact that Scalia still thinks sociologists are trying to decide whether same-sex parents are good for kids is worrisome. If he actually looked at the evidence from the American Psychological Association, he'd see that there really is very little debate about whether or not we are good for kids. So the fact that he's still saying this disturbs me, definitely. But other justices seem to get it. Also, even if the DOMA case is decided favorably, there will still be issues regarding parenting, particularly adoption.
How do you manage not to get terribly angry when people make comments like Scalia's, especially when it relates to your parenting capabilities?
I have my moments, but I also realize that on a daily basis we have it pretty good. We are both legal parents to our son, so we are lucky in that way. Not every same-sex couple has that privilege. I keep myself sane by focusing on the daily needs of my family more than the higher issues. I know attitudes are moving in the right direction.
Do you ever feel like there's additional pressure on you as a parent to "represent" your community? Like, do you get stared at in the supermarket, or things like that?
Sometimes people look at us, but I don't mind it. I personally try to use it as an education opportunity. But sometimes I feel pressure to be perfect because we feel like we're representing all of LGBT parenthood. Like, "Oh my gosh, if I lose my temper with our child people are going to say LGBT people shouldn't be parents!" We're not perfect, but we're no more or less perfect than straight parents. It's more important not to pressure our children to be perfect representatives of LGBT families. Our kids are going to have ups and downs of growing up and puberty and hormones, just like everyone else's kids. We just try to show our son he has parents who love him, and that's the most important thing. We also have to remember not to take ourselves too seriously.

I love this oil. I have to be careful about what oils I use on my sensitive, active, acneic skin, but this is my second favorite facial oil (Fresh Seaberry is my fave!). I doesn't aggravate breakouts, absorbs quickly, no fragrance, pure and organic and a good price. I don't use it on my whole face, just in dryer areas and around my eyes, and on the edges and ends of my hair. I love the glass jar. My only issue is that the pump dispense too much oil; a little goes a long way.

I'm a big fan of argan oil for hair. I picked this up at Whole Foods and have still yet to finish the bottle. The pump bottle packaging is perfect for girls like me who prefers not to dab my fingers into the product. I like the fact that there is no odor.
I use this in my nighttime routine. It's perfectly moisturizing. I layer it over a gel hydration cream. I think for girls like me with dry skin, this is a great standby oil to always have on hand.

I JUST got this oil, while trying to find their marula oil. However, argan oil is also won't clog pores, and I figured why not--I needed some other face oil moisturizer asap. I have sensitive skin and oils seem to be MUCH less irritating, and keep me from breaking out as bad. The price is around 12.99 USD from Target here, so more pricey than a "traditional" moisturizer, but I figure if you're only using a few drops a day, it'll last longer.
I am in the middle of a breakout of mild cystic acne, so put it on last night after washing with some mild cleanser. It smells a little like black licorice, but not so much that it's gross or unpleasant. I don't even like black licorice, but it smells nice. It is a little thicker than other face oils, so there's a little bit of friction in putting it on, but it soaks in SUPER quickly. It left my skin a tiny bit oily, in a good way, and super smooth. The bottle is a pump, and so you might get a little too much sometimes, but I like it more than an open top!
This morning, I was impressed. I won't claim it's a miracle or fix all quite yet, but a lot of my acne has noticeably calmed down, and the cystic acne went from angry and painful to half-healed. I would recommend for those with sensitive, acne prone skin that know they are not allergic to argan oil or any other ingredients. I'll update this review after a week or two and see if it really is the miracle product people claim it to be!!
UPDATE: After a month or so, I've found that this is a really great product. I've barely used any of it over time and my skin has definitely been getting better. I just suggest keeping hair out of your face and away from your skin while wearing this, because it can make your forehead a bit oily if you constantly have your hair in it.

I have combination skin with dry patches around my chin and cheeks. I've been using argan oil on and off for years, particularly this Acure oil. There's a reason I keep coming back to it: it's a really solid moisturizer.
My skin has been incredibly dry and tight these last few months, so I decided to pick up a new bottle to give it a go again seeing as it's worked for me in the past. I use this solely at nighttime, occasionally with the Lush 'Full of Grace' serum bar. Within a few days, my skin was no longer as tight, and my dry patches disappeared!
Packaging pumps out more than I need to cover my whole face (but pump can be easily unscrewed to dispense as you please)

Jumping on the argan oil bandwagon. This is the first I've tried. I had been wondering how it's actually different than other oils (coconut, olive, etc.) - and I found that it is, although it's hard to explain. It has a silkier texture and absorbs more easily than other oils. I've been using it in place of my usual Kiehl's moisturizer on my face and neck at night and find it a lot more soothing. I also sometimes use it in the morning under my sunscreen and it gives me a nice glow (provided I use only a drop... Any more than that and my face gets shiny). Despite using this OIL once or twice daily for a few weeks, my acne prone skin has been completely zit free. Also I swear my skin looks a little calmer and even toned. As far as other uses - I did try it on my hair but I've find that I can use only the tiniest amount (a drop or two) and only on the ends as it can make strands a little greasy. But when used correctly, holy shine! One complaint I have is... Well, I haven't smelled other argan oils but this one definitely has an off smell. It's not nutty - it's almost got a chemical like smell. Strong and not pleasant, although it's not a deal breaker. I'd rebuy.

I bought this because of the positive review on Paula's Choice and I was looking for an Argan oil to replace Josie Maran' s. It sinks into your skin and moisturizers well, but I'm worried that there could be a filler in it.
If you've heard about the false olive oil claims, you'll know where I'm coming from. The company states that it's Argan oil, but it has this chemical smell. I've read that Argan oil could have an earthly smell, but I don't think this is 'earthy.' But it's hard to say because I've heard of other brands smelling too (like the well reputed Now Foods Brand.) But why should I use this when an other non-smelly option is available. I probably will go buy the Aura Casia Argan Oil, which I tried at Whole Foods and has no off-putting smell and it is also cold pressed, vegan, cruelty free etc. I don't recommend that you buy Acure Organics Brand Argan Oil.
So in short, if Acure Organics Argan Oil is at your local Whole Foods try it and Aura Casia' s Brand. I think that you will like the latter better. Both are cheaper than Josie' s.
For some reason I am allergic to this oil but not Josie Maran's Argan oil.

I use this oil on the nights I use the Paula's Choice BHA liquid, between the acid and my lotion. The BHA is pretty drying, but I'm not willing to give it up. The argan oil really helps to keep my skin from being a tight and dry desert the next day. I don't find it moisturizing enough on its own-it acts more as a boost to my regular moisturizer. Some people mix it into their moisturizer, but I like it better on its own. I feel like it sinks in better if I apply it solo and wait twenty minutes to moisturize over it.
The only real con, which really bugs me, is the pump. I just noticed that the MUA picture that accompanies these reviews is of a dropper bottle, but that is not what I have. It is a pump bottle which requires you to use a whole pump full at a time. It's not a ridiculous amount or anything, probably just a touch more than I would like to use for a full face. It's just inconvenient if I want to use a bit for my cuticles or ends of my hair. I would love a dropper to have more control over the amount dispensed.

This wasn't anything special for my skin-Rosacea/sensitive. I would add this to my cleanser or dab around my eyes. This oil may be causing small clogs- I will take a pass! If you have dry skin that doesn't break out- you may like this! I didn't find this oil absorbing into the skin. I feel Vaseline worked better to hydrate!

Tried this oil for my face and it actually caused a horrible breakout. However, everyone's skin type is different so what may not work for me may work for you. I found coconut oil works wonders on my face, but some people breakout badly to it. So it just depends.
I didn't want to throw it away so I tried applying a tiny amount on the ends of my hair to see if will help with hydration... Horrible mistake... My hair became disgustingly greasy and I only used a super tiny amount.
Then I tried to use a tiny amount as a body moisturizer, another horrible mistake... I was a grease ball.
Also, this type of oil should be stored in a dark colored bottle. However, I did read somewhere it is UV "etched" inside... But not sure if that's true.
Try at your own risk. I recommend trying a tiny amount at first.
Only positive, the price point.
I say stick to coconut oil...

Is this 100% usda argan oil or 100% *argan* oil or what? I mean, I once bought aloe gel which had '100% gel' label on it. I assumed that means all aloe gel, but aparently that was not the case! Same thing here.....this argan oil seems to have some filler oil. It also smells awful and honestly, I did not see much difference in skin quality after using this.
It did work for the hair split ends, to soften the ends, but rose hip seed oil works better. I have also had better luck with the Andalou Naturals oils, Aura Cacia oils and EvanHealy oil serums than this oil
Also after reading about how Argan oil is extracted, I am kind of put off by Argan oil.
Probably 2014 was the year of argan.....hehe 😉😺

text: The results of a shareholders' vote on the merger of United Airlines and Continental Airlines are expected to be announced today. If approved, the merger would create the world's largest carrier. Meanwhile, observers say integrating the airlines' fleets, workforces, cultures and computer systems could take 18 months or more. They note, however, that customers won't notice much difference if the merger closes next month. "The bigger question," said Robert Shumsky, a management operations professor at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business, "is five years down the road, will you have a very large, well-run company, or something that has devolved into the lowest common denominators of the two?"

Not everything merits a 'garden' name, but this one got one instantly. The
cross is (MORE REFRESHING x KOKO KNOLL) X ENERGIZER and was one of four
sdlgs from the TBxAB 1st gen plants. The other three were okay, but this
one became 'Gruesome'. Naturally it set pods and only one of the others set
a pod. A clear case of the captain going down with the ship, I guess. It's
also one of several crosses using Energizer where it seemed to contribute
almost nothing to the appearance of the seedlings. It's also the first time
where the appearance of the unbalanced pod parent showed up. I can only
hope this has good genes lurking around in those seed pods. The photo is
actually flattering if you can believe it.

Changing Capitalisms? by Glenn Morgan
Book DescriptionAn increasing number of studies in the last decade or so have emphasized the viability and persistence of distinctive systems of economic coordination and control in developed market economies. Over more or less the same period, the revival of institutional economics and evolutionary approaches to understanding the firm has focused attention on how firms create distinctive capabilities through establishing routines that coordinate complementary activities and skills for particular strategic purposes. For much of the 1990s these two strands of research remained distinct. Those focusing on the institutional frameworks of market economies were primarily concerned with identifying complementarities between institutional arrangements that explained coherence and continuity. On the other hand, those focusing on the dynamics of firm behaviour studied how firms develop new capacities and are able to learn new ways of doing things. This book aims to bring together these approaches. It consists of a set of theoretically motivated and empirically informed chapters from a range of internationally known contributors to these debates. In their chapters, the authors show how institutions and firms evolve. Ideas of path dependency and complementarity of institutions are subjected to critical scrutiny both by reference to their own internal logic and to empirical examples. Varieties of institutional integration, the surprising maintenance of 'deviant' or alternative traditions and processes, and the existence of unpredictable yet consequential policy options that can lead to breaks in path dependency are scrutinized with particular reference to how national and international firms may relate to institutions at various levels as a diverse arena of potential resources rather than as a singular and determinant constraining force. The book provides a set of theoretical and empirical challenges for researchers concerned with the relationship between national institutional contexts and firm dynamics. For those involved in teaching or studying at doctoral, Masters and higher level undergraduate courses, the book provides a structured entry into the debates about how institutions and firms are changing in the contemporary era.

Personally I just have every disk (internal or external) besides the Vista and Ubuntu disk on FAT 32. That way I can download torrents from Ubuntu and Vista into the same directory, so it's all neat and simple. I also keep GRUB on a floppy so as not to mess with MBR (prefer Windows loader, plus my favorite OS was always Windows so if something must stay, it'll be WIndows). It's a perfect dual boot environment with as little fuss between OSes as possible. I'm not using Bitlocker on the Vista partition cause I need Ubuntu to be able to fetch some data from NTFS. Other than that, I've cool. I had some problems with this new restricted modules thing that was messing up NVIDIA driver installation but I found the solution and Beryl is working fine. Although Beryl makes Ubuntu run like Vista running with Norton... Ah well, it's cooler than Aero although most of the effects are totally unnecessary. Really, people complaining about Aero taking up resources should try Beryl for resource destruction

Mine too! Beryl is dreamy on it (and as u pointed mostly unnecessary, but I have nearly all the effects on ).
If you have jerkyness this might help...
"Open beryl-settings-manager. In the General Options page, under the Main tab, uncheck Sync To VBlank, uncheck Detect Refresh Rate and change Refresh Rate to 200."
Beryl is my favourite way to introduce my friends to Linux. They all mostly use FF, TB and OO now anyways so the transition for them isn't so bad.
But since we are on in regards to Beryl on the Ubuntu thread, did anyone know that Compiz (Beryl is a fork of it), is installed by default on 7.04!

Strange, as my machine was upgraded this March before Vista and I can feel Beryl's drag. Aero isn't that great of an eyecandy, but it doesn't make my FPS drop like Beryl. If it's nothing else, it's probably crappy Nvidia support on Ubuntu for my 8800GTS 640. Then again, the same performance drop was noticeable on my SLI 7900GT so it can't be the cards.
People should run Aero before forming an opinion though Aero isn't on Beryl's level, but it's a smoother desktop experience.

Yah that card isnt supported properly yet, but the 7900GT is....
You should be able to run Beryl on a GeForce 3 never mind your cards (which beats the panties off mine btw )
Currently I've got mine running on a low end 6200 (128mb) and it is really slick with all of the effects on...
If anyone knows how to record screens on Linux I'll record it spinning the transparent cube with the earth and tiny moon skydome.

Beryl runs smooth on my laptop with i945 chipset (although I am missing the top bars of windows, so I cant move them around easily )
That chipset cant even produce good fps on 5 year old 3D games, so your monster 3D cards there should handle it without any effort. If its jerky, there should be some other reason.
I dont recommend beryl for laptops though, it draws battery power like crazy and performing mouse gestures on a touchpad isnt easy at all.

You're exaggerating about Aero. I've Vista on a laptop with 1GB ram & 1.6Ghz centrino. It runs smooth. The only thing that makes it reach a 100% peak for just a fraction of a second is when you move over the sidebar and its transparency changes. For the rest it's around 3-10% cpu in idle.

*grin* yeah ^^'
It's a little heavy on RAM side, but I believe it has more to do with the prefetching than Aero, which is good.
Ubuntu is also @ >40% RAM usage.
I remember Gentoo was often at > 90% RAM, but it was still performant. Depends on the way the system uses it.
I'd be more concerned in vista pumps 90% RAM and has a huge pagefile.

.... doesn't the RAM usage depend on what services you have running? (rhetorical question)
If I'm running a service heavy machine on Ubuntu versus a stripped version, I'm going to get significantly different RAM usage results. Of course, with Ubuntu I also have a choice of window managers so I can pick a lean one for a server.
@grey_moon: wow, yes that's annoying (not that I haven't had to do it before). Did you check sourceforge to see if anyone has written something to do it in *nix?

in /etc/inittab. Then the machine boots up into text mode and doesn't waste any resources on X or window managers .
You can always type "startx" from the command prompt if you need to run the GUI. Most of the time I'm using ssh to talk to these machines remotely anyway. And, with X-Windows, if I need a GUI application, I can run it on the remote server and display it on my local workstation. You can even use X tunneling in ssh to have the entire session be encrypted.
Beryl is pretty, but it put too much load on my meagre 2.6 GHz Celeron and 512M. I went back to the standard KDE window manager.

Many of Beryl's effects didn't run terribly smoothly for me. My graphics card is a GeForce 4 ti4600, go figure. I couldn't run some of the Beryl effects (such as the rain) as the card didn't support the correct OpenGL version, I suppose. (1 GB RAM, Socket 754 Sempron 3100+, blah blah...)
I appreciate the minor effects, though. And I'm sure that I could tweak it so that the performance would be better.
(Using OpenSUSE, not Ubuntu! But it sort of fits into this thread anyway)

I think I just read your question properly....
So what you are saying is your version of ubuntu doesn't play midi files?
Let me test mine to see if it is a general ubuntu thing....
Hmmm midi doesn't work on my vmware version, and I just had a look on the Ubuntu forums about getting it working and I was a little shocked....

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Gigablast, Inc., an internet search engine corporation, starts the new year with a bang! The company announced today its recent database expansion from 650 million webpages to over 1 billion. The new index also includes a comprehensive refresh of webpages from the previous index. Anyone can search the new index from the company's homepage, http://www.gigablast.com. Gigablast also recently unveiled some innovative, new search solutions which are currently free to the general public and leverage the increased index size. Among these are Dedicated Site Search (DSS) and Custom Topic Search (CTS). DSS gives webmasters the ability to provide their website's viewers with search capability for the specific website being viewed. Additionally, webmasters can provide root URLs to seed the spidering process of their websites. Gigablast will spider their websites in real-time at the rate of one page every five seconds. With multiple dedicated clusters, Gigablast can handle large amounts of DSS queries and webpages. Until all of a website's pages have been uploaded to the dedicated servers, viewers may be directed to Gigablast's main index which likely has most, if not all, of the website's pages already indexed. CTS was announced on December 20, 2004 and allows webmasters to tailor their website's search feature to a custom topic. The topic may be defined by a list of hundreds of arbitrary websites. These websites are entered into the search tool by the webmaster and are often related to an area of interest. Gigablast then restricts its search to these websites. Gigablast suggests that webmasters build their list of relevant websites by harvesting URLs from an online directory service such as: http://www.dmoz.org/ or http://www.yahoo.com. Instructions and the html code needed for implementation of DSS and CTS may be found via links on Gigablast's homepage.
