Many people think that having kids means you can't travel anymore. This article seeks to put that myth to bed. - Eric Daams

From the page: "A few weeks ago, my wife Bec and I were enjoying breakfast with a two old friends we hadn't seen in a while. We talked about what we'd all been doing, and our plans for the future. We mentioned that we'd considered travelling next year, but had changed our minds recently. They urged us: "If you don't go now, you never will. You'll get pregnant, and then that's it. You'll be tied down."" - Eric Daams

"Dugg for the article, but this title is misleading. From the article: "Neither (Barack Obama's or John McCain's economic) plan qualifies as European-style socialism."" - Eric Daams

From the page: "The reputation of Football Federation Australia was hurt again over the weekend by another embarrassing debacle. At the Melbourne Victory - Sydney FC match on Saturday night, which drew the season's largest attendance so far, Victory supporters were told they would be kicked out of the Telstra Dome if they flew the Eureka Flag. Melbourne fans have been flying the Eureka Flag since the inception of the A-League in 2005. Why the sudden crack-down on a flag that is considered an 'object of state heritage' by the Victorian Heritage Register?" - Eric Daams

From the page: "Despite the occasions when I have felt lonely in my solo travels, I do love being out in the world on my own. It's an opportunity to rely solely upon myself each day - to figure out the train schedule in Delhi, to order my meal in French, and to talk my way through a Central American border crossing. It's all up to ME!" - Eric Daams

"I get really fed up with people who go "Oh .. Emissions!" or want to discuss the latest whizz bang widget for calculating their carbon footprint. But they do, in fact, have a point. Probably quite rightly, carbon emissions are at the vanguard of efforts to build a sustainable economy and they deserve to be looked at in close detail once in a while. This is where the Carbon Disclosure Project comes in." - Eric Daams

From the page: "Reframe It was designed to become a natural extension of the web by creating a space for you to engage the material and share your thoughts with a small community, or a large one. What the folks at Reframe It are trying to do is transform the public web by creating a virtual margin alongside any web page on which users can post comments to be shared with other users and read what others have written. By creating this space on the web, newspapers, bloggers, companies, governments, non-profits and individuals are able to hold one another accountable for the information they convey and withhold from the public." - Eric Daams
