Seattle has become a microcosm of the 2 cultures that increasingly are sprouting in locations which got lucky with disruptive business models. Those laid off could find themselves stranded in Seattle. Seattle mirrors changing mores in so many municipalities: Compassion has turned into the ethos of "Not In My Backyard (NIMB)." However, given the resources of Seattle, it could afford to pilot that kind of multi-dimensional initiative.

Austin, Texas is one of those cool cities, right up there with Seattle and Boston. So its chamber of commerce was probably not pleased when Skip Hollandsworth published "The Midnight Assassin" in 2015. That chronicles the serial murders that took place there in the late 19th century.

As George Packer describes OWS in his THE NEW YORKER article "All the Angry People," human beings facing despair find fellowship.

One of the ideas I'll be sharing at the Think Outside The Slideworkshop later this month in Seattle is what we can learn from thismethod of communicating. If you haven't registered for the workshop on Friday, September 28thin Seattle, WA, I suggest you do it right now. We can learn valuable lessons from how humans communicated 5,000years ago. At that time, formal written language was not wellestablished, so how did people communicate? They used pictures andstories.

  On a Seattle blog, Kim Thomson describes the 10 bad habits of ineffective job-searchers.  If we continue to be without work, we're usually the reason why.    Work is available.    It might not be satisfying, what we used to do, what we want to do, or what we assume we should be paid.    But work is work and the cliche is true: work leads to more work.    Eventually we get to where we can be.
