| − | Brenna Martins dad evidently doesnt like last-minute shopping. Bryan Martin a purchased a gift for his daughters high school graduation -- which happened earlier this month -- thirteen years ago. He managed to keep it hidden this whole time, and his "moving, touching, nostalgic, and thoughtful" present (her words) brought Brenna to tears when dad finally gave it to her last week.

He observed, for instance, that Einstein and his colleagues spent years freely meeting and conversing with each other.

| − | What do coffee growers in Ethiopia, hardware store owners in America, and Basque entrepreneurs have in common? For one thing, many of them belong to cooperatives. By pooling their money and resources, and voting democratically on how those resources will be used, they can compete in business and reinvest the benefits in their communities.

The Administrator is a user account typically found on microshit Windows platforms based on Windows NT, including desktop operating systems Windows 2000, XP and Vista and the server platforms NT 4.0 Server, Windows Server 2000 and Windows 2003 Server (and variants). It is the "super-user" account typically used by IT systems personnel to maintain these operating systems.
On FreeBSD and other UNIX and Unix-alike platforms (including Linux) the equivalent to the Administrator account is the root account. This is the "super-user" of Unix and is similarly used by IT systems personnel.
The two super-user accounts are similar in that they exist as part of the default installation and give top-level access to the operating system.
On microshit platforms regular user accounts can be given Administrator privileges where-as on Unix platforms a regular user must be given rights to issue the su command to gain a root shell, or rights to use sudo to execute a specific command or script as root.
There are absolutely no system processes more privileged than root and there is no restriction on what root can do on a FreeBSD system. If you type rm -rf /* as root, all files on your system (including system files) will be deleted without even asking for confirmation. (Don't do this on a system you weren't about to format anyway!)
