Far-reaching changes in attitudes and family structures have been redefining the workforce for more than two decades - yet the workplace has remained much the same. During this time, many companies have learned that personalising the customer experience is good for business. In "Mass Career Customiz ation", the authors argue convincingly to extend this popular and profitable concept to the workplace. As the working population shrinks, maintaining industry advantage will depend largely on keeping employees engaged and connected. "Mass Career Customization" provides a framework for organisational adaptability that will do just that.

Like many of his generation, Bill Bryson backpacked across Europe in the early seventies -- in search of enlightenment, beer, and women. Twenty years later he decided to retrace the journey he undertook in the halcyon days of h is youth. The result is Neither Here Nor There, an affectionate and riotously funny pilgrimage from the frozen wastes of Scandinavia to the chaotic tumult of Istanbul, with stops along the way in Europe's most diverting and historic locales.

Fiction traffic signs

These fun little reading signs we picked up at the Scholarâs Choice store make a nice filler for some blank wall space above our fiction area. We made up the license plate from our province using a desktop publishing program, but discovered after putting it all up that the word âCountryâ was missing after âWild Roseâ. Hopefully the students donât notice! Maybe weâll give a little reward to the first student to point it out. :)

Question by Scofield B: What is the best certification to get as a web developer?
JAVASCRIPT certification or HTML certification or ASP certification? Pls which will be the best and WHY?
Best answer:
Answer by Cpugeni
This is a fairly vague question and really the best certification depends on your skill-set.
HTML Certification - If I were to go near this, I would opt for XHTML and CSS because these are the latest Web 2.0 markup languages that are used in industry today. However, a certification in this area would certify you as a designer rather than a developer.
JavaScript Certification - This is a client-side scripting language, JavaScript typically lives within the HTML/XHTML and can be very powerful in manipulating your web pages. A certification in JavaScript would be better than HTML, but obviously the prerequisit would be to know HTML.
ASP Certification - I would deffinately recommend a certification in Microsoft ASP.NET as this is deffinately a developer area. Prerequisits, you need to learn and understand either VB.NET and/or C#, and optionally, JavaScript will help.
WHY: Because it will enable you to build very robust and powerful websites. It is also a fairly new technology, and in demand, and you will be working on the cutting edge (if you so wish). Because of these factors, you will also earn a larger salary over the other certifications.
Microsoft offer certifications starting at "Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist", to become a certifi ed TS ASP.NET Developer you must take two exams, 70-536 (Application Development Foundation) and 70-562 (ASP.NET Application Development).

Question by Alice: How do you feel about writers bashing other writers\' work?
I\'ve read a few articles over the years of some very bold writers who have had the guts to actualy criticize a fellow writers writing style/work. Some of them were justified and others were obviously bitter. Do you believe that it\'s a wise thing to do, or should writers just let their own work speak for itself?
Best answer:
Answer by Just another nutcase!
Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion as far as I am concerned.
If I find an author down right awful, I\'m going to say it... it\'s only human to criticise others work. So why should a fellow author, who h as every right to critique in that department be any different?

When the British wrested New Amsterdam from the Dutch in 1664, the truth about its thriving, polyglot society began to disappear into myths about an island purchased for 24 dollars and a cartoonish peg-legged governor. But the story of the Dutch colony of New Netherland was merely lost, not destroyed: 12,000 pages of its recordsâ"recently declared a national treasureâ"are now being translated. Drawing on this remarkable archive, Russell Shorto has created a gripping narrativeâ"a story of global sweep centered on a wilderness called Manhattanâ"that transforms our understanding of early America.
The Dutch colony pre-dated the âoriginalâ thirteen colonies, yet it seems strikingly familiar. Its capital was cosmopolitan and multi-ethnic, and its citizens valued free trade, individual rights, and religious freedom. Their champion was a progressive, young lawyer named Adriaen van der Donck, who emerges in these pages as a forgotten American patriot and whose political vision brought him into conflict with Peter Stuyvesant, the autocratic director of the Dutch colony. The struggle between these two strong-willed men laid the foundation for New York City and helped shape American culture. The Island at the Center of the World uncovers a lost world and offers a s urprising new perspective on our own.
