CHIEF SEATTLE'S LETTER "The President in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land. But how can you buy or sell the sky? The land? The idea is strange to us. If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them?
Every part of the earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow, every humming insect. Chief Seattle's Speech of 1854 - Version 1. Version 1 (below) appeared in the Seattle Sunday Star on Oct. 29, 1887, in a column by Dr. Henry A. Smith. "CHIEF SEATTLE'S 1854 ORATION" - ver . 1 Yonder sky that has wept tears of compassion upon my people for centuries untold, and which to us appears changeless and eternal, may change. There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a wind-ruffled sea cover its shell-paved floor, but that time long since passed away with the greatness of tribes that are now but a mournful memory.
Youth is impulsive. Our good father in Washington--for I presume he is now our father as well as yours, since King George has moved his boundaries further north--our great and good father, I say, sends us word that if we do as he desires he will protect us.

Know the Answers to These Questions Before Your Job Interview. @Adam: rrrr... last time I checked if you want to go work as a webdesigner in a webdesign company you still have to go in for a jobinterview @Adam: For web designers, the only things I really care about is samples and how long it takes them to complete a given piece of work. So if you mainly work on the web, make a webspace, showcasing all the work you have done with thumbnails linking to full size screenshots, and a link to the actual site as well. The reason for the screenshot, is in case the site disappears or they change their layout. Mention if you can make designs in html, asp, php, or which ever languages you can do, if it applies. Obviously you will still have to sell yourself, but with all this done previously, you make it much easier for people to hire you. And no, I don't care if you're a team player, or how you will fit with my company, since I would only be hiring you for 1 job at a time.
