in Women in the Work Place: Ask a Working Woman on Menstrual Poetry
I think this is because a man inspires more power to an employer... Even if women are smarter, at a job interview, it's all about the first impression.

in Huckabee Tops GOP Power Rankings, Paul Takes Third on The Iowa Independent
Paul Supporters I just wanted to let everyone know I am a Paul supporter mainly based on his record and financial views. I do agree with many other ones and disagree with some.


Yes, we do have some abbrasive, nutty, unproffesional, uneducated, and I am sure a few other categories. I would just like to say many of his supporters are just your regular working americans that are tired of the struggle to just barely survive. Many are worried about all types of issues especially the ones that effect them the most on which most of us vote.


I am sure every candidate has their supporters that make them cringe. I think the ones that stand out on Paul's side are a bigger focus for the fact Paul is not exactly on the big business and current establishment's best friends list.


I ask of the readers to not disregard Paul because of some of his extreme supporters, but to actually go out and find facts and history that backs him up. Just because I don't like some of the players on my favorite football team does'nt mean I should just stop liking the team. There are bad apples and different view point in every circle.


I am supporting Paul because I do think this country is on the brink of some horrifying things to come if its not addressed.


Do your own research everyone! If you research and drill for the facts and records then I have no problem with you disagreeing with supporting Paul. This is supposed to be a free country and I will respect those rights to everyone.


In the end all I hope for is a better country and Dr. Paul is the only way I can see that chance happening. (through my eyes of course)


God Bless you all and God Bless America!

in ActionSMS, plugin de Rails para enviar SMSs on Furilo
Have you seen ActiveSMS? It also uses the same ActiveMailer pattern, but supports far more gateways than your ActionSMS. We're also using it in production at Intuit.

in Beat the pond on Angler Wannabe
Thanks for the advice. I was told to go with wooly buggers (small) or even worm patterns and bounce along the bottom and dropoffs. I'm not sure if there are any dropoffs in this pond though.


I'm starting to see more surface activity and quite a few frogs so I may try some frog poppers.

We should call this Ackoff's Hierarchy of Learning. Just like Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, if you starve yourself of a basic item (knowledge) then its impossible to obtain a higher item (wisdom).

To paraphrase a recent quote, "What do hot dogs and entrepreneurship have in common? If you love them don't watch how their made."

in Knowing More By Knowing Less (or, How Do You Learn?) on Disruptive Thoughts
The physicist in me likes the idea of focusing on reusable prescriptive knowledge. However, an interesting feedback mechanism exists between the more mundane propositional knowledge and the prescriptive stuff. Joel Mokyr does a great job explaining how these feed each other in his book "The Gifts of Athena". For me, the more experience and knowledge I gain, the more hangars I have for new stuff.

The greatest power is the power you give away. Eye contact does not establish dominance, but conveys importance and power to all parties.

Thanks, Seth, take your time, but I would still totally dig seeing whatever examples you can post, if you get around to it. All the best.

in Saturday at Padre on Angler Wannabe
Thanks for the comment! I really do the blog as a journal for my own use but am happy that someone finds it interesting enough to follow. I've now experienced 3 very different regions for fly fishing and like aspects of all of them.


I don't think I'll ever be a 160 fish day person. I'm just happy to be outside attempting to fly fish. It's a fun challenge for me.



I definitely plan to go for bass here in Texas. There are some monster bass in lakes in the area. Fishing for White Bass in the hill country is something I want to do soon too. I've read a lot about Carp fishing, but have only tried it once. There is even a guide in Houston that takes people out to the Bayou's in the city (sounds kinda nice, but they are really just big concrete runoff ravines) to fish for large carp. Last time I went, I had to try to stay away from people with nets trying to catch them. Not the best experience I have had.



What do you fish for in Eastern Europe? And where?

I would love to see any code you can spare to plug Gmap2 functionality into rails. I am starting a site and would really dig a head start on getting Gmap2 involved (being that cartographer is a bit of a headache and it doesn't support gmap2).

All the best.

in Charlie Wood, RSS as the Information Bus on everwas
Glad you enjoyed it. Glad you picked up on that point. I think that's just one of a couple of key points that developers (both client and server) should be thinking hard about.

in Went to Franklin Park on Sunday night to basically… on Angler Wannabe
Unfortunately, been too busy. I've been trying to get some tying in here and there, but that's about as close as I have been able to get to fishing. There are some stocked waters in the area, Passage Creek and Big Stoney near Edinburg, that are supposedly fishing well. I would like go to one of them in the next week or so. I'll post a report and maybe some pictures if I do break free.

He kept calling it a "trout minnow". He's from Texas where fishing is all about catching 10 lb catfish and bass.

It wasn't a violent fight, more of a very consistent hard pull. Unfortunately, haven't caught one since.

Well, the pursuit of happiness is quite broadly expressed.



" Life, liberty, and the right to speedily download porn and P2P music"




besides, XM Radio type tech may make P2P music too bothersome.
