Jobs For The Jobless
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
No, even though today is the day that the wonder-child of Apple shows off his latest marketing blitz, this blog is not about Steve Jobs and his DRM-laden tablet.
Instead we are going to travel thousands of miles to the south-east and visit a man in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Marcelo Balisteri, of who most people do not know.
Marcelo was born in the favela, the Brazilian term for "slum", but since he and his mother were poor, Marcelo had to learn to be an "entrepreneur", and to make money any way he could. While sometimes this leads to drugs and theft, in Marcelo's case this lead to computers and Free Software, to the point where he created his own company.
Marcelo found Project Cauã through my blog, and sent me a link a video he made. Watching the video, I immediately saw a connection between what he was doing and Project Cauã.
In this world financial crisis (and it is a world crisis, with some countries being hit harder than others), there are a lot of people without jobs. Government welfare is not the answer in most cases. Useful job creation and training for those jobs is the answer.
Project Cauã has many focal points, including reducing strain on the environment through better design, making computers easier to use through better support, and trying to solve the Digital Inclusion problem. However, one of its strongest points is trying to create millions of new high tech jobs by enabling people to become System Administrators and start their own businesses. More importantly, to try and help people who are on welfare because they lack the training, or because they are single parents who can not afford to leave their children at home alone, or they are physically challenged and can not leave their homes. We believe that all of these people could, if properly trained and given some support, do a good job. We had planned on incorporating that concept from the beginning, but Marcelo's video strengthened that vision.
I have invited Marcelo to participate in Project Cauã, and we will be setting up plans to incorporate some people from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro as well as Sao Paulo into the pilot projects that we will be doing to prove the concepts of Project Cauã.
Carpe Diem.
I am just asking about the question what is the linux, these r operatin g system or software.
Jobs Online -
Thanks to John
Thanks John to show how we cant do to change a life for the people inside of favela.
This just show a oportunity to other people understand and start help and make diference on the word.
Best Regards,
Marcelo Balisteri

Entry Barriers, Competition, And Technology Adoption
Free registration required
Executive Summary
There are large differences in income per capita across countries. Growth accounting finds that a large part of the differences comes from the differences in Total Factor Productivity (TFP). This paper explores whether barrier to entry is an important factor for the cross-country differences in TFP. The paper develops a new model to link entry barriers and technology adoption. In the model, higher barriers to entry effectively reduce entry threat, and lower entry threat leads to adoption of less productive technologies. The paper demonstrates that technology adopted in the economy with entry threats is at least as good as the technology adopted in the economy without entry threats.

Cerner To Acquire Siemens Unit For $1.3 Billion In Cash
Kansas City, Mo.-based Cerner Corp., has agreed to acquire the assets of Siemens AG's healthcare information technology unit for $1.3 billion in cash.
The combined companies will have more than 20,000 employees in 30 countries and $4.5 billion in annual revenue, according to a news release.
Cerner, a major provider of electronic health records, has more than 14,000 employees worldwide — about 9,600 of them in the Kansas City area — and posted nearly $400 million in profits last year.
The transaction is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2015. Cerner said the deal is expected to add 15 cents to adjusted per-share earnings in 2015 and more than 25 cents in 2016.

"U.S.S. Enterprise, this is GamesRadar...come in Enterprise." It's been awhile since we had a Star Trek game and we're crossing our fingers that it was worth the wait. The new game follows the J.J Abrams Star Trek universe, with Spock and Kirk leading the adventure. The game touts a co-op heavy storyline and the two characters offer a very different experience, in gameplay and out. Who will you choose: human or vulcan?
Tune in @5:30pm PST to get a look at what Namco Bandai has to offer the Star Trek fan base.

In Britain and Australia, a haberdasher is a dealer in dressmaking and sewing goods; in North America, he's a dealer in men's clothing.
One of my American dictionaries, in making clear the ways in which this word is used in different places, uses two words that sound mildly odd in Britain. In the USA, it says, a haberdasher sells men's furnishings (such as shirts, ties, gloves, socks, and hats); in the UK, he or she sells small wares and notions (such as buttons, needles, ribbons, and thread).
This substantial divergence in sense reflects the muddled history of this odd-looking word, which in origin has nothing whatever to do with anybody dashing anywhere. It may come from an Anglo-Norman French word hapertas, which may have been a type of fabric. But nothing other than these vague suppositions is known about its origin. It went through lots of variant spellings before it settled down to the modern form around the middle of the sixteenth century.
Its meaning down the centuries has been as diverse as its origin is mysterious. When it appeared, in the thirteenth century, it meant a trader in a range of goods. According to early chroniclers, these included: "glasses, daggers, swerdes [swords]", "mousetrappes, bird cages, shooing hornes, lanthornes, and Jews trumpes [Jew's harps]", and "bookes, pictures, beades, crucifixes" — what we would now think of as the stock of an eclectic general store.
Around the sixteenth century, the trade narrowed in focus and often referred to a hatter, a sense now obsolete (such sellers were also called milliners, originally a trader in goods from Milan, a term now restricted to providers of female headgear). Another part of the trade split off, that of providing a multitude of small items needed by tailors and dressmakers, the notions of that dictionary reference.
By some curiosity of cultural and linguistic history not fully understood the term has come to have different senses in Britain and North America.

Ryan: Obama has 'record of failure'
By The Associated Press
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, left, listens as vice presidential running mate Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., speaks at a rally at the Randolph Macon college, Saturday in Ashland, Va. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer)
WASHINGTON - Republican Mitt Romney's running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, wasted little time tearing into President Barack Obama on Saturday, lambasting the Democrat's "record of failure" just hours after being named to the GOP ticket.
Moving into a role as Romney's chief attack dog, Ryan declared Saturday that the nation under Obama's leadership is struggling through the "worst economic recovery in 70 years."
"No one disputes President Obama inherited a difficult situation," Ryan said, standing at Romney's side for the first time as the Republican presidential ticket on the USS Wisconsin, a retired battleship. "And, in his first two years, with his party in complete control of Washington, he passed nearly every item on his agenda. But that didn't make things better."
Romney selected the 42-year-old Ryan, a seven-term congressman, from a short list that included Ohio Sen. Rob Portman, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell.
Ryan is the architect of a conservative and intensely controversial long-term budget plan to remake Medicare and cut trillions in federal spending. His selection immediately thrusts those budget plans into the forefront of the presidential contest.
Obama's campaign manager, Jim Messina, called Ryan "the architect of the radical Republican House budget" proposal and said the plan "would end Medicare as we know it."
"We won't duck the tough issues," Ryan said during his acceptance speech. "We will lead."
As his family came on stage, Ryan knelt to embrace his 10-year-old daughter, Liza, and sons Charles, 8, and Sam, 7, before kissing his wife, Janna.
The GOP ticket made its debut at a naval museum in Norfolk, Va., the initial stop of a bus tour through four battleground states in as many days. It seemed likely a stop in Ryan's home state would be added to previously scheduled appearances in Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Ohio.
As part of the tour, Romney and Ryan stopped at a bakery in Ashland, Va., to buy pie. Asked if saying yes to Romney was an easy decision, Ryan said: "It was. It was. We've got to save the country."
At a subsequent event at a college gymnasium, the walls were decorated with printed and handmade Romney signs, but none touted Ryan - an indication of the secrecy that surrounded the announcement.
Romney initially made his revelation to supporters via a phone app Saturday morning. "Mitt's Choice for VP is Paul Ryan," it said and implored backers to spread the word.
One campaign official said Romney had settled on Ryan as his pick on Aug. 1, more than a week ago, and informed Beth Myers, the longtime aide who had shepherded the secretive process that led to the selection. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was unauthorized to provide details.
During his formal remarks, the congressman blamed Obama for the nation's unemployment rate that has exceeded 8 percent for more than three years, the longest run since the Great Depression.
"Higher unemployment, declining incomes and crushing debt is not a new normal. It is a result of misguided policies," Ryan said.
Ryan is chairman of the House Budget Committee and primary author of conservative tax-and-spending blueprints that the tea party-infused Republican majority approved over Democratic opposition in 2011 and again in 2012.
It envisions transforming Medicare into a program in which future seniors would receive government checks that they could use to purchase health insurance. Under the current program, the government directly pays doctors, hospitals and other health care providers.
Ryan and other supporters say the change is needed to prevent the program from financial calamity. Critics argue it would impose ever-increasing costs on seniors.
Other elements of the budget plan would cut projected spending for Medicaid, which provides health care for the poor, as well as food stamps, student loans and other social programs that Obama and Democrats have pledged to defend.
Ryan's budget plan died in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
"Our rights come from nature and from God, not government," Ryan said. "That's who we are. We promise equal opportunity, not equal outcomes."

Alexander Explains The Death Range
Tonight at the dinner table I told my husband about our dear friend whose ex-husband died earlier in the day. We, of course, want to support her and her children during a difficult time. It should be simple. Offered without commentary is tonight's dinner conversation.
ME: Something terrible happened today.
MR. G: What?
ME: Our friend's ex […]

The vacancy on the Macomb Park Board might remain unfilled until after the election in April of 2013.
The seat has been vacant since the death of former board president Lois Nickson in August of last year.
Board members have discussed filling the seat. But board president John Hemmingway told fellow commissioners this month that it is time to end the search. He said, "The president asks for consent that, failing anybody stepping forward to volunteer, that we proceed without actively soliciting a fifth member for the remainder of that term."
The field of candidates for a vacant seat on the Fort Madison City Council continues to grow.
The opening was created by the resignation of Alderman At-Large Brad Randolph upon his appointment as Mayor. He replaced Steve Ireland, who passed away last month.
Six men have applied for the position, including two former aldermen.
Former alderman Neil Boeding feels his experience on the city council would be a value as the panel continues to move the city in what he describes as a "positive direction."

WASHINGTON (AP) — The wife of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Wednesday that her love of horses helped her overcome her fear that multiple sclerosis would put her in a wheelchair.
Ann Romney was guest hosting ABC's "Good Morning America" when she spoke about her depression after receiving the diagnosis 14 years ago.
"I was very, very weak and very much worried about my life, thinking I was going to be in a wheelchair as well," she said. "Turned to horses, my life has been dramatically different. They gave me the energy, the passion to get out of bed when I was so sick that I didn't think I'd ever want to get out of bed."
Mrs. Romney is part-owner of a horse that competed this summer in the Olympic sport of dressage, the equine equivalent of ballet. She spoke about her love of horses while standing in New York's Times Square, petting Paralympic horse Lord Luger as rider Rebecca Hart discussed how equine therapy helped keep her out of a wheelchair.
Mrs. Romney also helped interview the competitors eliminated Tuesday night from "Dancing with the Stars." The beginning of her appearance went a little awry when she said the show's staff turned the heat up too high for her family's Welsh cake recipe.
"I've got a cooking emergency!" she said, smiling as the camera turned to her pulling the cakes off the griddle.
She was filling in for co-host Robin Roberts, who is recovering from a bone marrow transplant. ABC says it is in discussions with first lady Michelle Obama for a similar guest appearance.
Mitt Romney told voters at an event in Ohio that he watched his wife's appearance and saw a lot of campaign ads against him during commercial breaks. "It's a good thing I don't do that very often because my blood pressure would be very high," he said.

Indian airline becomes first buyer for new green plane
An Indian low-cost airline has become the first buyer for Airbus' new fuel efficient "A320neo" jet, showcasing the scale of India's aviation growth by placing the largest single order in commercial aviation history.
IndiGo, a low-cost carrier that flies Indian domestic routes, placed an order for some 150 of the new aircraft, an enormous expansion of its current 34-strong fleet.
It also ordered a further 30 standard Airbus A320 aircraft, which on top of existing orders will push the carrier's size to a whopping 241 aircraft.
The A320neo was unveiled by Airbus in 2010 as a more environmentally-friendly version of its best-selling A320 aircraft, which is in service with 310 airlines around the world.
With more efficient engines and new wingtip devices called "sharklets," which alter the airflow at the end of the wing to reduce the aircraft's drag, it's estimated that the A320neo offers fuel savings of up to 15 percent, making it greener and cheaper to fly.
Airbus claims that the savings represent up to 3,600 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually on a single aircraft, as well as a double digit reduction in NOx emissions.
IndiGo's order underlines the scale of the growth expected in India's aviation market, in no small part thanks to the success of low-cost carriers ouch as SpiceJet, GoAir and IndiGo.
According to the Centre for Asia Pacific aviation, India's domestic traffic growth averaged above 19 percent in the 11 months to November 2010, with 4.9 million passengers taking to the skies in November alone.

You can register yourself with the STPI [ Software Technology Parks of India ] and get yourself 100% tax exemption.
For this to work out, you'll have to create a dummy entity in the USA, like a BBA or an LLC - and, just bill your invoices in bulk thro' the STPI to avail the benefit.
Otherwise, if you think this is too much of a hassle, you can just register for an IE Code [ Import Exports Code ] and show the government that your a 100% EOI and try to play around with taxes a bit.
Legally, there's not much of a problem - we do this stuff all the time
The best way i'd suggest to keep it transparent is registering with the STPI and getting the tax holiday - when the indian government is telling you that you don't have to pay taxes if your an IT company, why bother
There's a variety of options you have there.
I believe running a google search would help.
This YA post seems to be okay.

Talk:Morrisania, Bronx
WikiProject New York City | |||||||||||||||||
Morrisania is pronounced {morris-say-niah}
I'm not confused by the boundaries of Morrisania, given in this article. If you set Crotona-Prospect Avenues as the eastern boundaries, then Charlotte Str. would be included, like it is mentioned further down in the article. If the Grand Concourse really is the western boundary, then Morrisania wouldnt stretch beyond the borders of the Bronx Community Board 3, which only goes to the Park-Webster Avenues. On morrisania.com I found the alternate boundaries Cross Bronx Expressway, Crotona Park North, Southern Boulevard, Westchester Avenue, 161st Street, Brook Avenue, and Webster Avenue. Does anyone know an answer for this differing information? Thank You. Thomas 18.104.22.168 17:22, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- Charlotte Street is east of Crotona-Prospect Avenues in Crotona Park East or East Morrisania. The western boundary is Webster Avenue, there is a huge shift in elevation at that point. Wikiwiki718 (talk) 02:20, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
Junked car??[edit]
I'm not saying it's the upper east side but the junked car image is over the top. It's not the kind of thing you see every day and I think that image should be removed. It's like an image from the 1970s! Objections? futurebird 13:42, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- I disagree you will find numerous stripped and damaged cars on the more desolate streets like Park Avenue and in vacant lots. The photograph is representative of the lack of maintenance and trash pick up in the area. Trash in general is widespread across the community. It's not the 1970's it's present day and unfortunate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiwiki718 (talk • contribs) 03:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
On which street has the picture with the junked car been taken? Thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 15:41, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- Park Avenue. Wikiwiki718 (talk) 09:14, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
I have more of an issue with the statement, "Many single mothers had their children at a very young age and could not provide for them." This discriminates against single and young mothers. The neighborhood IS plagued by many social problems, but why must be attribute it to young, single mothers? What about the quality of the schools in the neighborhood and sanitation problems, perhaps lack of access to affordable healthcare? There are always underlying social causes to social problems...blaming it on individuals is not neutral or factually based. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 02:05, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Outdated article[edit]
A lot of the information in this article is incorrect. In the past two years the neighborhood has undergone gentrification and there are very few abandoned buildings or vacant stores left. The photograph in no way represents what the area is like today! 22.214.171.124 (talk) 15:46, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
The area is not gentrified but undergoing revitalization. Restoring lost housing stock in the form of affordable housing. Gentrification is very different, there is very little displacement and very little change in demographics minus population. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 02:13, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Although the area has undergone revitalization, there are still vacant lots and abandoned buildings. There are significant other aesthetic/public problems in the neighborhood, including decaying infrastructure and pollution. I see it every day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 02:02, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
Part of the article says the following
For decades Morrisania has been one of the richest communities in America.
This statement does not agree with the rest of the article , which strongly suggests that there is still a large population in low income —Preceding unsigned comment added by Figelnoster (talk • contribs) 23:27, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
