Hinter dem etwas kuriosen Albumtitel RPM10 verbirgt sich nicht mehr und nicht weniger als die Abkürzung von Revolutions Per Minute 10th Anniversary Edition. Also sozusagen das zehnjährige Jubiläum der Revolutions Per Minute Scheibe von Rise Against als schicker Digipack mit ein paar Extra Goodies wie Demo Versionen einer Stücke. Da Rise Against aber sowieso keine über produzierte Band weiterlesen... ähnliche Themen: The Resistance Rise From Treason The Restistance präsentieren ihre erste EP Rise... read more »
This past weekend was Mothers Day and I spend my Saturday volunteering on behalf of Womens Drop In Center assisting a organization called Help A Mother Out (HAMO).

One of the things I love most about having a 5 year old in the house is the excuse to do all kinds of arts and crafts projects.

For years, the main approach in the environmental movement has been to sound the alarm bell and implore people to consume less, switch to green products, recycle, and speak up to companies [...] read more »
When you've been around businesses and projects for a while, you start to see patterns emerge. One pattern I see on a regular basis is management who think they're solving a problem, but it's really just the Hawthorne Effect at work. If you've never heard of the Hawthorne Effect, all you need to know is that people who know they're being monitored will be more productive than those who aren't. It's common sense really. The most frequent scenario I see is this: Let's say senior management are absent a... read more »
