Back to School Pt. 3: Work & Parenting...Can They Coexist Harmoniously?
Part 3 of our Back to School miniseries gives us a look at how a career and parenting can live together. We see that if parenting and a career are fighting for the same allotment of time, the consequences are nothing short of quite costly. Here are some tips on how to alleviate that stress from life, and how to make this tricky relationship between career and parenting work, and work well.

Updated: The Age/Entrepreneurship Myth
I pretty much entirely disagree with Fred Wilson's implication earlier this week that age is an obstacle to entrepreneurship. It may be an obstacle to a particular kind of entrepreneurship -- venture-backed companies where you give up equity to parental figures with money -- but implying anything broader than that is silly and counter to the facts.

Macroeconomic imbalances still a major concern

Effects of health on child schooling and cognitive development: The Indirect Effects of Investment in Human Capital
In sections 2 and 3 education and health were treated as separate components of human capital. Here the possible linkages between them are discussed. Expenditures on education may affect health and parental education may benefit children. Health expenditures may themselves affect the value of education. These links are important for understanding the potential range of benefits which accrue to expenditures on human capital.
Labor's Ten Minimum Standards
Federal Labor’s plan for a new industrial relations system includes a significant expansion in the number of minimum employment standards. At the time of the Workchoices changes in March 2006, the previous government introduced employment standards into federal law regarding hours of work, annual leave, personal/carers leave and parental leave.

Facing the Wreckage of Midlife
The single most-reported concern about midlife is about loss of looks and health. However, this concern often covers up the really damaging changes going on much deeper.
Go Green With Organic Apparel
The days of faded synthetic fabrics are a thing of the past. Today's green movement has brought forth a new consciousness for how fibers are grown and manufactured. Organic cotton and natural fibers are replacing traditional fabrics and synthetic fibers. Just as concern over the harmful effects of insecticides and pesticides in our food supply has given rise to the demand for organic produce and vegetables, concern over the high use of insecticides and pesticides in growing cotton and other natural fibers has given rise to demand for organic cottons and garments free of these and other poisons and carcinogens.

FEAR and RISK? What is holding you back?
Don't drop that egg! While at the Nashville Zoo with my granddaughter, we watched as the zookeeper offered to let small children hold an ostrich egg. These amazing eggs are approximately 24 times the size of a chicken egg and weigh about 3 pounds. But rather than embracing a once-in-a-lifetime experience, almost without exception the parental caution was - "Now, don't drop that egg."
Worry vs. Concern
I believe that concern is worry with action. Worry in and of itself does nothing other than diminish focus. Concern has the potential to release creative solutions to the obstacle that one is facing. I heard a story about an elderly monk who was training a number of younger monks learning to live their dedicated lives of service. One of his pupils came to him and told him that he was so weighted down with all of his worries that he could not perform his tasks. The old, wise monk said, "I have a gift for you. It was given to me by an old and wise monk when I was your age. This gift has allowed me a life of grace, peace, and focus."

How to Avoid Sales Mistakes
There is an overwhelming concern about productivity and profitability in today's organizations. With this final concern is ever more important for selling professionals to be as efficient as possible. Efficient selling agents help to lessen labor while bringing more revenue to the organization. The problem however is that many selling professionals commit numerous errors throughout their day. This not only slows down the selling process but also lessens the ability for sales teams to meet their targets. More importantly, these issues affect revenue.
