A prime aim of the growing Surveillance State - Salon.com

A prime aim of the growing Surveillance State - Salon.com: "Several weeks ago, a New York Times article by Noam Cohen examined the case of Aaron Swartz, the 24-year-old copyright reform advocate who was arrested in July, after allegedly downloading academic articles that had been placed behind a paywall, thus making them available for free online.  Swartz is now being prosecuted by the DOJ with obscene over-zealousness.  Despite not profiting (or trying to profit) in any way — the motive was making academic discourse available to the world for free — he’s charged with “felony counts including wire fraud, computer fraud, unlawfully obtaining information from a protected computer and recklessly damaging a protected computer” and “could face up to 35 years in prison and $1 million in fines.” "

Return on Emotion, Return on Stress - Blog Articles - LessEverything

Return on Emotion, Return on Stress - Blog Articles - LessEverything: "Steve, and I aren't always investing money. The currency we're putting into these projects is our time and knowledge. These resources seem an endless bank to withdraw from.

Steve and I encounter many business opportunities, but these opportunities fuel the fallacy that we're rich in time and patience. This paradigm has falsely encouraged us to create more businesses, projects and events. Some of these projects have taken off and become viable sources of revenue for LessEverything, but most have not."

Return on Emotion, Return on Stress - Blog Articles - LessEverything

Return on Emotion, Return on Stress - Blog Articles - LessEverything: "the hardest part of business is the fear of a lost opportunity. My trigger to start new projects and create things is happy to be pulled at anytime. I fear the regret hindsight could bring.

As business owners we’re in a battle of time allocation. What do I focus on? Where is my time & money best spent? We’re constantly investing in the future. We’re all familiar with Return on Investment (ROI). I always assumed the word "investment" meant money, but sometimes it does not.

What is an "investment"?"

How Menu Works In Drupal | TemplateZine

How Menu Works In Drupal | TemplateZine: "In the default Drupal interface, you’ll find  lot of links which appear as tabs. Menu system  calls them local tasks and their default appearance is tabs (although there is an ability to change the appearance). Local task work the same way like menu items do. There is an agreement that says these tasks should be described in short nouns, as short as possible. In addition, local task have to be included to any set by default. When visiting parent menu item for a local task, the local task will be shown as it is selected. General experience of working with user tabs require this"

BuddyPress or Ning : Community/Social Networking Website toward a fully functional prepackaged product / SAS based on Drupal / let's works on that at DrupalCon SF | Drupal Groups: "there are new modules being released that make sites even more exciting, which I won't name.

A thought on development. Learning Drupal is not an easy process, takes alot of dedication and patience. I admire the OpenPublish package, but seeing dedicated OP folders on my webserver and themes that depart from basic Drupal aren't things you really like to see. Especially, after you've spend years working with the Drupal and so many things are affected that require different ways of working wtih them."

When the methods you have used lose their effectiveness, its time to change.

When the methods you have used lose their effectiveness, its time to change.: "People doggedly remain loyal to concepts that either never worked well, or are no longer effective.

In order to develop a new method, plan, agenda, procedure or paradigm, it is useful to take a long hard look at where the old method has failed. If you skip this important step, there is a strong likelihood that you will simply grasp hold of another paradigm which will also leave you out in the cold."
