Benyamin Tripp - Google+ - Introducing the Google+ Start-Up Guide I have been having…
Benyamin Tripp - Google+ - Introducing the Google+ Start-Up Guide I have been having…: " I have seen many guides out there that attempt to lower the learning curve but no one wanted to go read a multi-page article about how to use a social network.
And so I decided to give it a try, with a short presentation instead, almost like an intro video.
I have been spending the whole summer freelancing as a full time job and wanted to use my design and user experience skills toward a fun side project that would let me go crazy. I wanted to create something that tells you only the bare minimum of what you need to know to get started and something that is easy to digest. Over the past week, what started as a small side project became my main project.

Bad Customer Management Skills? What's the Big Deal?
Bad Customer Management Skills? What's the Big Deal?: "The recent Bank of America debacle is proof positive that we consumers have been "nickel and dimed" to death by usurious fees. Making your customers bear the brunt of every little increase in your cost of doing business, so you can keep your profits at record highs, just won't work. Whether it is a $5 fee for using a debit card or $40 maintenance fee on an IRA, or anything other trifling fee, enough is enough.
9. Double Prices for the Same Product or Service
If you want to know how well this won't work, take a look at what happened when some marketing genius at Netflix decided that customers really wouldn't mind paying double for the same service they had before"

Why College Debt, Entrepreneur and Success Can Be Used in the Same Sentence
Why College Debt, Entrepreneur and Success Can Be Used in the Same Sentence: "Scott Gerber has penned an interesting article for the Huffington Post. He alleges that a collective student loan debt of $1 trillion bars Millennials – aka members of Generation Y or the Trophy Generation – from following up on entrepreneurial dreams that would let them “actively take part in any job creation solution.” Gerber goes on to decry the sidelining of educated “entrepreneurially-charged individuals” – ostensibly because they cannot afford to start businesses with crushing debt hanging over their heads.
There is, of course, an answer to the problem. In fact, this answer has been around since 2007, when the Bush Administration created the Income Based Repayment (IBR) scheme for student loan borrowers. Students with crushing debt could cap federal student loan payments at 15 percent of their incomes and then take up to 25 years to repay the loans. "

The Man Behind Gingrich’s Money - NYTimes.com
The Man Behind Gingrich’s Money - NYTimes.com: "$22 billion, presides over a global empire of casinos, hotels and convention centers whose centerpiece is the Venetian in Las Vegas, an exuberant monument to excess with canals, singing gondoliers and acres of slot machines. That fortune is a wellspring of financial support for Mr. Gingrich, who has benefited from $17 million in political contributions from Mr. Adelson and his wife, Miriam, in recent years, including $10 million in the last few weeks that went to a “super PAC” supporting him.
The question of what motivates Mr. Adelson’s singular generosity toward the former House speaker has emerged front and center in the campaign. People who know him say his affinity for Mr. Gingrich stems from a devotion to Israel as well as loyalty to a friend. A fervent Zionist who opposes any territorial compromise to make way for a Palestinian state, Mr. Adelson has long been enamored of Mr. Gingrich’s full-throated defense of Israel"

Predators versus prey in the startup ecosystem | Techi.com: "The “Startup Sea” is broad and loaded with life. There are those who are considered predators, which means someone has to be the prey. It’s a self-sustaining culture as long as there’s enough people (and dollars) looking for “the next big thing” coming into our lives. That part, at least, seems to be consistent.

My Graduation from Zinch - Founder Diaries: " Anne Dwane, our current CEO. She has been the ultimate professor during my schooling here at Zinch. She’s a masterful communicator and an exemplary leader.
She’s always been so generous, supportive and patient with me. Only she knows how often I’ve screwed up (a lot). But every time I did, she took the opportunity to train, teach and help me learn. Our relationship didn’t come without challenges (none do), but overall i’ve been very lucky and fortunate to have her as a teacher, mentor and friend. The apprenticeship will hopefully continue, as i’m sure i’ll be reaching out to her as I face my own challenges as CEO. For me, she has set the gold-standard for what it means to be a great CEO. I will work hard to emulate her example."

Orthodox groups protest federal decision on contraception | JTA - Jewish & Israel News: "The Orthodox Union on Tuesday and Agudath Israel of America on Wednesday released statements criticizing the Jan. 20 announcement by the secretary of health and human services, Kathleen Sebelius.
Under the Affordable Care Act, employer-provided health insurance plans are required to include contraception and related “preventive” services for employees.
Leaders of the Catholic Church had urged that an exemption for religious institutions include a broad range of religiously affiliated institutions. But the Department of Health and Human Services defined the religious exemption more narrowly, effectively excluding many religiously affiliated institutions such as hospitals, social service agencies and colleges that serve wider constituencies."

Free-Php.Net | php scripts, scripting news, product reviews, code snippets
Free-Php.Net | php scripts, scripting news, product reviews, code snippets: "I have seen in some forums and different websites, some doubts about how codeigniter is organized and how can it help you as a coder be more efficient. The first thing people should know is, codeigniter is a PHP framework, made with the software architecture known as MVC which stands for Model-View-Controller. This architecture seperates the logic from user interface allowing independant development, testing and better maintenance. Codeigniter allows you to have your code much organized, making you look better at what you already do. This framework is made to facilitate the way you do certain things in PHP, and allow you to reuse your code, using PHP Object Oriented programming paradigm. Codeigniter, on my opinion, seems to be very user friendly, so it’s to which I would recommend the use of it, for any upcoming web developer."

Google Doodle Honors 'Addams Family' Creator Charles Addams | News & Opinion | PCMag.com: "curvaceous, dark-haired woman in a spidery black dress inside a dark, dilapidated Victorian house listening patiently to a vacuum salesman who was oblivious to the home's disrepair—cobwebs, bats, and broken balusters," according to a biography from Pennsylvania State University. "More cartoons about the vamp, soon christened as Morticia, and her ghoulish family followed."
The family truly came to life in 1964, when a producer asked Addams to turn his comics into a TV series. The Addams Family was only on the air for two years, but can still be found in syndication.""

Introducing Another Concept
This is something for my friends in the profitable world of SEO:
Even simple animals such as birds for example have a search image when it comes to finding what it needs to survive. If somehow you managed to get through High School without learning a lick of biology, you might not even have a clue to how valuable the study of biology is.
Industrial Melanism:
Prior to the Industrial revolution there lived a certain species of moths, that lived on trees. Now the moths were typically white in color, and because of that they blended in well with the trees where they normally lived.
Now during and after the industrial revolution when soot became to quite common on the very same trees where this species of moths lived, a very interesting thing happened.
The moths which were now prevalent on these trees which were now darker in color were black.
The work pioneered by non other than Charles Darwin, explained this phenomenon (even before it occurred in the post Industrial Revolution period in England) in a very important concept known as Natural Selection.
Conclusion:
If you are teaching a subject known as Regent's High School Biology, in the New York State School System, you can tell your students who know they want study computer science or website development, that SEO (having a search image of what you are looking to find on the world wide web) can be directly related to Charle's Darwin's theory of Natural Selection.

Social Tropism Is A Dangerous Poison
Today I spent about 15 minutes mixing it up with the Facebook crowd in my anti-low brow tirade, where I take aim at anyone who does not clearly grasp the concepts they hear on the way to work on talk radio, yet are happy to engage in passionate dialogue either for or against a given political issue.
Just as there once was a historic movement called the enlightenment, social tropism is a movement towards something, just because there are many others who are talking or thinking about the same thing. Therefore social tropism represent one more thread being intertwined with a general trend that causes people not to be independent thinkers, but rather to embrace concepts, only because others are talking about and agree with them.
The under-educated masses, and the low brow rank and file people of the US, try to sound intelligent by mimicking the words they just heard on talk radio.
People like to hear it, mainly because it finds a convient scape goat where they can dump of all our worlds greatest problems onto one one politician or political party.
Social Tropism is perhaps the most dangerous of all of today's trends because the trend as practiced today, does not cause one to focus on the real causes which are at the root of Todays Global Problems. Rather its a problem because peoples minds are being "co-opted" and their thoughts (or active intelligence) or "ability to think for themselves" is being replaced by the so called experts who are doing all of them thinking for them.

It is so predictable that it has become a tropism. The creeping, stealthy soft tyranny gets called out into the open, first by those dedicated to digging in the archives of history, then by the general public who awakens to their undeniable daily condition. It is the life force tilting toward the sunshine.
We know that the world is run by an unworthy gang of misanthropic inbred elites and their lackey minions. And, yet, through their spoils (and the spoiled), they have amassed great treasure that has no real value."
