"Citizen Kane" predates "Columbo".

You can often do an initial consultation with a lawyer for free. They can let you know what general options you have if any and then if you need them to execute on any of the options you pay them. They can give you an idea of the costs up front.

I've done this before in regards to a startup project I was working on with 2 others and the information was very useful and totally free.

He was one of my professors too. I tried to get into "Programming for Artists" but was never able to get into that particular one because the waitlist was always full.

She did mention one of her problems with the job was where to find places to pee.

Also, she didn't say anything as to whether the water offered was bottled or not.

Even if it's true that the majority prefer being homemakers, Japanese women are individuals, not an amorphous homogeneous mass. Those who do want to have careers and work outside the home shouldn't be discriminated against or forced to resign as soon as they get married or have kids.

One Japanese woman I met's solution to this discrimination was to start her own company (an architecture firm). Others I knew did freelance work such as photography.

Those who don't are still automatically expected to however and stigmatized or discriminated against if they don't conform. When I lived in Japan and taught English conversation at a large company, one of my older male students, whom I became friends with, told me that one of my female students secretly was a single mother. He told me not to tell anyone else. Female employees at this company were basically expected to quit if they married or especially if they had children.

A female student of mine at another large company originally planned to quit soon after she married because she imagined working together side by side with her husband at his family's business. After moving in with her husband's family, however, she found out they expected her to stay home and cook and clean all day (while at the same time her husband's adult sisters went out and enjoyed themselves and did no housework). She then regretted giving her notice to quit at her original job and wished she could keep working there.

Smaller companies I later worked at least had married female employees although I never heard of any of them also having children.

It doesn't. You may ask how then do they do raises? Largely, they don't. The only way they manage to attract and keep people for at least a short period (average tenure is short) is through the ever increasing value of the stock options. Those are only awarded when you first join however so for those who do manage to hold on for 4 years until they fully vest there is zero incentive to stay longer. This is a major fintech company.

You could work for a foreign company within Japan.

For the gutters, just do:

  .something {
    width: calc(33.33% - #{$spacing-small * 2/3});

    + .something {
      margin-left: $spacing-small;
    }
  }

Some tips.

Keep your layouts flexible: * Avoid specifying widths and especially heights of individual elements unless really necessary. Allow the content to determine dimensions. * Set percentage based widths on overall containers (columns / grids). Allow these to constrain the dimensions of elements within. (Simplify your page structure as much as possible and don't overuse these.) * Use max-width to prevent elements from exceeding the dimensions of their containers: img {max-width: 100%;}

When I lived in Tokyo my roommate had both his bicycle and a motorcycle stolen from outside our apartment building which was in a very nice quiet residential area.

Please tell me that's meant to be a parody site of bad design and bad code.

I agree more with nl who posted above. Run ads on all sites by default, no rev split then charge users to remove ads.

A former company of mine did this. Many users hate ads on their personal sites and will gladly pay a reasonable amount to have them removed. Many also have no interest in making money off their sites. Besides doing a rev share complicates things a lot more.

Interesting. I was actually living in Tokyo at the time and never heard about the police notifying Americans of the attack. (I am an American citizen.)

I first heard of the attack when a friend called my roommate and told us to turn on the TV. It was right after the first plane had just hit and they were still trying to figure out if it was some kind of accident. Shortly after, the 2nd plane hit and it became very apparent that it was no accident...

I tried his button styles on submit and button inputs. His basic "button" style and the various color and shape variations still work great and degraded well when I checked in IE7.

Only a small addition was needed to turn off left and right borders.

Actually it's not really that bad. I had dinner parties when I lived in Tokyo. Rents really aren't that bad either.

Drawing from life and designing logos really aren't the same thing... Studying a bit about typography would be of much more use.

Is it an actual apartment or just a room in a gaijin house? What area?

I'm using the "Tabularisationifier Plugin" for all my table layouts for now on. Brilliant! ;)

Change, how so? Would you care to elaborate?

I thought he said he had $80,000 in savings not just $8,000.

I was hoping someone would have an idea just on whether it makes a difference to have his business as my partner or to instead have him and his existing partner as direct partners in my new business.
