For a week in January, my then-13-month-old daughter, Sasha, and I visited San Francisco-alone, without her mother.
Would have loved to show you kid-friendly San Francisco. So many Trekaroo families live here and would have recommended some other fantastic free things to do with baby Sasha like visit the wonderful Koret's Children's Quarter, a hike at Land's End, and visit to the Farmer's Market at the Ferry Building. Here's a link to all the under $5 Kid-friendly things to do in San Francisco with a Toddler recommended by parents: http://www.trekaroo.com/places/san-francisco-bay-area-california/activities#cost_min:0/min_age:0/age_filter_type:only/sort_by:popularity/select_city:/cost_max:1/max_age:3 Next time you are in town, let us know, we'd love to show you guys around.It is a kid-friendly city.Often young adults are assigned the care of those a few years younger. Camp councillor at a sleepaway. Trail worker. Summer school. Summer stock. Groom, exercise rider. Sales at a farmers market. Nursery man. Sales at the nursery. Mall demonstrator of green products. Green room management. Waiting tables. Probably not ready for line cook. Receptionist. Ask at the temple. Assisting the Cantor. Page or shelver at the library. Geological field work. Surveyor's assistant. Her school has a file.I don't know her.

AngelList Connects Start-Ups With Investors
“AngelList story: http://nyti.ms/erZwXQ Love Naval's quote: “Worst-case scenario, it is a very efficient wealth-transfer scheme."”This works for a production start-up. I am not there yet. I am at search for an opportunity. That is followed by product development.Then comes manufacturing start-up.What would you pay for if it existed?I find it hard to imagine what is not yet and has never been that would be valued by others.

Armies of Expensive Lawyers, Replaced by Cheaper Software
“Quantifying the employment impact of these new technologies is difficult. Mike Lynch, the founder of Autonomy, is convinced that “legal is a sector that will likely employ fewer, not more, people in the U.S. in the future.” - http://nyti.ms/ifPLpS”Document found.Lawyers are creatures of ritual. Unless the proper words are said and the proper check boxes filled and certified, the act is not consummated.A fire at the courthouse places the contracts there recorded in doubt.In electronic records the erasures do not usually show. Find and replace is far too effective. A single electronic record is proof of nothing. An image of a paper record is better evidence if it is photographic in origin and part of an array of similar images.A photostat really should be notarised.

There may be some art there after all.A decision? The record was found? At the VA? This form of messaging is not as plain as I could wish.My willingness is unchanged. An unconditional yes.
