Mother of All Recessions, as the Bay Area's stay-at-homes moms crash to reality, Diana Kapp wrestles with a provocative question: Can the financial meltdown do us all an enormous favor by forcing career women off the mommy track and back into the ...

Kelly Wissink said… - Hello Catherine! YourOnRamp looks amazing. It looks more like a community than a blog, am I correct in this observation? I will most surely look further into it. How may I help you grow it?

Need 2 Find a Job? Stop Looking so Hard
Do you know anyone who tried for years to have a baby but couldn't? Then, after giving up, maybe after adopting, suddenly, surprisingly, got pregnant?

How about someone who lost her job? Maybe she spent the next year working on her resumé, perusing job sites, devoting all… Continue

• You think tweets are sounds your friend’s pet canary makes.
• Your kids make fun of your text messages, because you u… Continue

Today's the Day 4 Obama and Fair Pay
Pop the cork! The Ledbetter Fair Pay Bill was signed by President Obama today. Congress gave final approval on Tuesday to a civil rights bill providing women, blacks and Hispanics with powerful new tools to challenge pay discrimination in the workplace. It is likely to be the first significant legislation signed by President Obama. This is a huge milestone toward our goal of equal pay for equal work. Read President Obama's comments and blog entitled,… Continue
