For over-the-paywall viewing just search via google for "Magazines Use Digital Editions to Ramp Up Pricing"

As I remember, the main difference between "attribution theory" and "dissonance theory" is that dissonance theory postulates a motivation or drive to reduce dissonance between different types of information...

Whereas AT just postulates different information - something to think about for IT-type folks...

Yes, the one problem I have with this MO is that it introduces more room for only vaguely parallel ways for browsers to implement it. Not what the browser-design world needs.

At risk of stating the obvious: sell the "vitamin" to the health-conscious market. Sell the pain-killer to the fun-loving, dare-devil, etc markets.

Yes, the second of those probably is the larger market, but there are thousands of companies doing quite well in the niche (literal) "health-conscious" markets".

You just have to know which market you are reaching (or need to reach): matching product to market.

"The Center of the Universe" at UNM. Nice photos. Fairly cool concept.

But what does it mean that the CoU is so rectilinear?

Site of a web start-up that apparently wants to attract enough visits to be worthy of WiMax vendors' advertising dollars. ...which will take a little more (and more substantive) content.

Or at least to an immigrant-rights center. There's sure to be one in any major U.S.

I remember in grad school I went to testify for my advisor (Korean-born), and they wanted to know that he really was married to his wife, and related nonsense (she also immigrated from Korea and they'd been married for 10 years).

In any case, there's obviously a lot of power to U.S. citizenship: not the least being the ability not to be deported to a homeland that is subject to vagaries of the latest dictatorial "democratic" government (reference to Russia, not Ukraine).

Best of luck.

He meant the "Spirituality Marketing Center..." But what the hey. Close enough for spiritual work ;)

And of course, by "San Francisco" he meant "Bay Area", which of course means "California." Again: the energy (spirituality) looks pretty much the same from Dakshineswar.
