Successful, career minded, job seekers use online job search tools that deliver contemporary, relevant content. Active and passive job seekers will want to visit Just-Posted.com (http://www.Just-Posted.com) and JibberJobber.com (http://www.JibberJobber.com). Just-Posted.com boasts the Web's leading vertical job search engine. It enables job seekers to quickly search the Internet for the 'most relevant' matching job leads available. JibberJobber is the holy grail of job search management tools. Both sites should be on the top of every job seekers 'favorite' folder.

NYC new Congestion Pricing or Fees or Tax depending on which side of the fence you are on <<< Global Warming

It is similar to a system that London (Congestion Charge) has used since 2003, and officials there say it has significantly reduced congestion. The scheme applauded by environmentalists and alternative transportation groups , but is politically tricky for New York City because it would have to be enacted by the state Legislature , and many lawmakers from outer boroughs and the suburbs may not support it.
