My Communicamp Experience: Why Open Conferences Are Danger Zones for ADHDer
2009-10-29 18:35:00 Today, I walked out of Community Media Workshop's Communicamp open conference. It wasn't for lack of wanting to stay in my seat and spend the day with the cognescenti of the Windy City's media and blogging worlds. But how do you remain at an event where the rules of the road seem almost aimed at making someone with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder--like me--feel as out of place as possible? Here's why open conference don't work for ADHDers...and how to change that....

Skype In Danger Of Shutdown Or Is It Not?
2009-08-04 12:54:00 Apparently that’s what the holding company, the online auction major Ebay said in a regulatory filing to the US securities and Exchange Commission late last week and this is mainly due to the legal suite that Joltid has filed on Skype over Skype’s use of Joltid’s technology despite former revoking the license. “Although Skype has contracts in place with its third-party technology providers, there can be no assurance that the licensed technology or other technology that we may seek to license in the future will continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all,”. “The loss of, or inability to maintain, existing licenses could result in a decrease in service quality or loss of service until equivalent technology or suitable alternatives can be developed, identified, licensed and integrated,” eBay said as quoted on telecoms.

The danger of “energy drinks.” Read the label for ingredients!
2009-04-06 02:12:00 It’s become very common to see students walking the halls of high school at 7:30 AM holding a can of Red Bull, Monster Energy drink, or a can from a whole assortment of unregulated drinks on the market, but parents and students should be warned that it may not be the ideal breakfast!Teenagers are rapidly becoming the top consumers of energy drinks. Over 500 new brands were launched this year, giving teens a wide variety of styles, flavors and sizes to choose from. Although commonly marketed like sports drinks, which replenish some important nutrients lost during vigorous exercise, energy drinks have little proven nutritional value. Furthermore, the potential side effects should lead parents to give energy drinks a second thought.Caffeine is the primary “boost” ingredient in energy drinks and potentially the most dangerous element. The drinks can also include sugar, taurine, ginseng, and other stimulants, such as ephedrine. Recently, health professionals have become concerned w...

Stranger Danger - Aptly Explained
2008-10-29 19:11:00 Know what one of the hardest things about parenting a young - outgoing! - child is? At least for me - it's getting her to understand about Stranger Danger. The old definition of "anyone who you don't know" just doesn't quite work in our day and age. At least not completely. It's all quite frustrating.So when I came across this article (click on that link, then scroll down to the 5th article - Who's a Stranger?) while waiting at my doctor's office today, I was pretty dang excited.Bill Marquis, Program Director for Lil' Iguana Children's Safety Foundation, lays it out straight, defining a stranger as, simply, anyone you don't have permission to go with - whether you know that person or not. I'm paraphrasing here, but he goes on to say that it doesn't even matter if it's grandpa or the neighbor lady (whom you say hi to and casually chat with almost every day) - if anyone asks your child to go somewhere with them, your child MUST get your permission to go. Every. Single. Tim...

Bond Insurers in Danger, OECD Lowers Growth Forecast, What Funds are Buying
