“I think Linus Tordalv started working on Linux back in 1991 when he was a high school student in his native Denmark. That’s nearly twenty years ago, and the shit still doesn’t run right.” – Fake Steve Jobs: Let’s all take a deep breath and get some perspective (via krislane )

There’s certainly a sense that Republicans may have bottomed out and at least started to look for a way out of the wilderness. We’ve thought as much before only to see the party rocked by some ridiculous sex scandal or to watch helplessly as Obaam’s numbers climb in tandem with the Dow, but suddenly the market is back to where it was when Obama came in and the unemployment number is rising and the public mood seems to have turned against the tax and spend liberalism of the stimulus, cap and trade, and a $3.4 trillion budget.

Fake Steve Jobs on Google’s Chrome OS : To put it another way, have you ever met anyone who said they’d really like to try out that Interwebs thing, but they’re just put off by the low-quality operating systems and browsers that are available at this time, so they’re sitting it out for now? Or like maybe they’re on the Internet now but they would just be soooo inclined to spend soooo much more time on the Web, and they’d be soooo much more likely to actually click on the ads, if the OS and browser made it somehow less onerous to, um, type in a URL and go to a page?

At a recent gathering of business leader at an annual global forum organized by the Global Executive Learning Network, I was invited to give a talk on future leadership. Here is a distillation of the conversation that ensued: When Paradox of Success was first released in 1994 I assumed we had learned our hubris lessons from the 80s. Wrong! We kept hiring and promoting self-inflated leaders and offering them wrong incentives. As we look ahead from the 2008 economics wreckage that resulted, we must ask what kind of future leaders must we produce to set us right.

Posts about Steve Jobs as of July 9, 2009 – thedailyparr.com 07/09/2009 The Latest Administration Spin On Fiscal Stimulus – butthenwhat.com 07/09/2009 It gets more difficult by the day to figure out exactly where the Obama administration stands on their stimulus plan. Early this week the spin seemed to be that we need to give the stimulus a chance to work, that only a small part of the money had been put to work and blah, blah, blah. Now Peter Orszag says on his blog that they are ahead of schedule in spending the money.

My co-conspirator @timmyprice recently pondered how many great business ideas got shelved because The Ultimate Domain was parked. This was sadly not a random and hypothetical thought, but one established by our joint sub-consciousness over the last few days as he and I have struggled to find anything particularly compelling which wasn’t already defaced by some inarticulate, search-aggregating page-o-nonsense. “Parked”… they read. Translated: “Hoarded”, and probably ultimately wasted. OK.

We have reviews of some movies listed below. You can use a search engine to find movie download sites. Film download searches will include “DVD Online Rental”, “DVD Movies Downloads”, and “Illegal Movie Downloads”. Little Shop of Horrors: Extremely amusing black comedy musical in reference to a nebbish (played to excellence by Moranis) whose “abnormal” new plant brings him excellent fortune-however turns into a Frankentein. Greene (replicating her level role) is a pleasure as his squeaky voiced heartthrob, Martin humorous as her macho boyfriend.
