I didn't see any sexism, either, and I'm extremely sensitive to such things.

In 2000, I briefly worked for a start up that was funded by a Lycos incubator. I'm almost positive that most big tech companies have similar programs. here's an old article about it - http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/1380.html

Artists. Musicians. Anyone who is organizing a group of volunteers who check different blogs. Anyone organizing a party or group outing with a bunch of friends (who won't all have one of those). I can see a lot of legitimate uses.

I should not have mentioned my submission. I've been around for a while. I've submitted dozens of things to reddit over the past couple of years, and only one of them got more than 5 upvotes. I know how this stuff works, and it's certainl

The moment we are born, all of us, we are labeled, bagged, tagged, and forced into roles by our families, our communities, our schools, and our peers, and all of those people are also categorized at birth, and taught to believe the same thi

Of course, it may certainly be sudden onset apophenia, but this in conjunction with some of the responses to Jessica's recent blog entry on female founders, along with a number of other threads that have popped up here... my forlorn submiss

Here's a phenomenon I've recently noticed: posts that put down women, or demonstrate ways in which they may be inferior to men, get to the front page. Then the armchair evolutionary biologists post comments of dubious veracity about biologi

Do most men really want a much younger woman who is only interested in his money as a life partner? It seems like I encounter this odd perspective often online, but in reality, I know maybe two men who have married women more than 4 years

If you are asking if enforced diversity as it exists in this country today is ok, as in one cannot be discriminated against based on nationality, color, creed, or sexual orientation, then yes. I prefer that to a nation where tiny city stat

Seriously, as much info about Montessori as you want is out there, and unless the school you're dealing with is a little shady, you should be able to walk in & request anything without paying tuition. You can also find a lot more than

I keep posting about this, but cambridge has an excellent public montessori elementary school (prek - 8). My problem is the single mom thing. I have a bunch of ideas (and they are all BRILLIANT!) & a great co-founder, but I need to hav

I think you may be getting Montessori mixed up with Waldorf. Information on the montessori method is widely available (start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montessori , google for more). My son goes to a public Montessori school, and

This, like many of the other questions in the list, is a very leading question. It appears to coyly approach the topic of legalized prostitution, possibly legal age of consent laws.

The child we are being asked to help is on immuno-suppressants, and is, of course, required to be shielded from germs as much as possible. You're just not going to get a stock photo of baby hugging a goat.

You can get the "old formula," in most states, but they keep it behind the counter and you need to hand over your driver's license to be scanned. I only happen to know that because the phenylephrine doesn't work anywhere near as well for m

Probably Sudafed, or any generic version of it. It's one of the few medications you can safely take while pregnant. That said, the long term effects of any metabolism boosting substance on the heart, etc., are probably not great. The best

The funny thing is that I'm a smoker on my third attempt to quit. Tobacco is insidious and deadly, and if it were impossible to buy, many thousands of lives would be extended, and health care costs would be significantly reduced. I don't

For me, it just makes me paranoid, sleepy, or sick, which are three good reasons to avoid it. I pass no judgment on others, though. It's clearly a substance that should be legal, whereas tobacco should be banned.

Was he a transplant recipient or did he have AIDS? That seems to be the underlying issue (see http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,291735,00.html ). In either case, I suppose I would strongly recommend avoiding marijuana.

I guess it depends on where you are in your career. Younger or more self-motivated IT folk will be drawn to exciting opportunities that may not carry great benefits, while those with families, or those looking to retire in 15 years, will b
