Relationships & Family > Dating Commentary Common dating problems faced by professionals: A female perspective: 1 of 26

Isn't dating most horrid when you are actually out there trying to get a date? Whatever happened to just happening to bump into that great guy? We had plans, us professional women. We were going to graduate, get that great job in the city, and have perfect clothes, perfect shoes, perfect hair and our perfect man. Obviously w...
Jobs & Careers > Office Politics Dress codes in the work place: Are they necessary: 1 of 8

Dress codes are necessary because some of us are unable to distinguish between what is suitable for work and what isn't. I do think a little flexibility (within reason) should be allowed. We all have different tastes when it comes to fashion, and that is reflected in our choice of dress. However, flexibility without guidelin...
Computers & Technology > Computers & Technology (Other) Is the use of parental control on your TV bad or good?: 11 of 38

I live in a Muslim country. The censorship board is ruthless. There is no kissing between unmarried people. There is no cussing. Certain words cannot even be spoken due to the apparent sensitivity of the viewing public. Until a few years ago, there was no satellite or cable TV. All channels were government run.

Parenting & Pregnancy > Parenting Tips Should boys be taught to sew?: 7 of 21

Sewing skills are essential live skills. They should be taught to all children, regardless of their sex. Boys should be taught how to take in a hem or attach a button, cook a balanced meal and keep a clean house. Girls should be taught how to change a light bulb and fix a flat tire or a leaky faucet.

Computers & Technology > Computers & Technology (Other) How to identify the computer geek in the office: 3 of 9

No one wanted to be seen in the company of one. Today, the word is used to identify someone with more than a passing interest in a subject. There are Scrabble ...
Food & Drink > Coffee Starbucks on the new culture of coffee: 10 of 18

Why I Love Starbucks I have an intense personal relationship with Starbucks. I think I might enjoy going there more than any other cafe type establishment on the planet Earth. Dramatic you might say. I would say, I kid you not. I fondly refer to it as the happiest place on earth'. You'd be forgiven for associating that with ...
Computers & Technology > Hacking Does it take a hacker to catch a hacker?: 2 of 3

Do we need a hacker to help us catch other hackers? No, I don't think we do. What we do need though is someone with the similar skill set as that of a hacker. That isn't easily found today as it takes an impressive level of skill to successfully hack a server or application. The process involves finding a weakness to exploit...
Home & Garden > Home Interior Home decor: Do it yourself or hire an interior decorator?: 22 of 25

How many times have you watched a show like Trading Places and thought I could have done that or if they did that to my house, I don't know how I'd live in it? It might seem like it can't be all that difficult to pick some furniture and paint the place. Though you might be afraid of being settled with something you don't lik...
