Unemployment update

Posted on September 7, 2012 by ChrisA

I particularly like the 11.2% data point assuming the labor force participation rate had remained unchanged.

Interviewer: “So you think there’s a slash-and-burn mentality in the tech world?”

Posted on September 6, 2012 by ChrisA

To which Jason Fried, founder and CEO of high tech company 37 Signals responds…

For sure. I think there’s a lot of lottery-playing going on right now. Companies staffing up, raising a bunch of money, hiring a bunch of people, and burning them out in the hopes that they’ll hit the lottery.

37signals Earns Millions Each Year. Its CEO’s Model? His Cleaning Lady

No real surprise, at least it was on display for all the world to see. No doubt, Boulderites were disappointed.

Sorry Michelle, I’m eating my regular Wednesday night Pizza

Posted on September 5, 2012 by ChrisA

Ann Althouse received an email from Michelle Obama today and one simple request was…

A woman recently told the campaign her family skipped a pizza dinner at their favorite place so that they could make a difference in this election.

That is the commitment that drives this campaign.

If you can support Barack with a donation today, please know it makes a huge difference. If we win, it will be because of what you did at moments like this….

Sorry Michelle, I’m sticking with my Wednesday night Happy Hour pizza from Old Chicago’s. I feel that’s a much better use of my funds.

Scott Johnson: The woman otherwise known to Rush fans as Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz is really the perfect representative of the Democratic Party. And I mean perfect.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz BUSTED.

Nickelodeon, Jason Biggs, Kids and Tweeting

Posted on September 5, 2012 by ChrisA

A filth filled Twitter page

And errr, just a few days ago: Nickelodeon now including Jason Biggs’ Twitter handle in promotions

Note, this is not suitable for work.

I’m not up to speed with modern day, younger culture, but aside from what he said, it’s simply irresponsible to be posting this in a public forum that is actively being promoted to children. Of course, the more obvious questions is what knuckelehad at Nickelodeon thought this would be a good idea?

Yes, I realize the offensive tweets have been deleted. I feel confident they will be replaced by equally offensive tweets in the future.

Newsweek’s Anti-Obama Cover Set to Be a Newsstand Hit

The early read on sales suggests the issue could double Newsweek’s newsstand average, MagNet said. It’s also on track to land among the title’s top three newsstand sellers since 2010, according to MagNet data

and…

IPad edition downloads on the issue’s first day were 4.3 times higher than usual, the spokesman said.

Wonder how this edition sold in Boulder?

Dead Navy Seals

President Obama

Form letter

Signed with an electronic pen.

WTF?

Scott goes on to point out how George Bush handled the deaths of soldiers in all divisions of the military…

Perhaps I should point out that the link above on “the contrast” is to the Washington Times story “Bush, Cheney comforted troops privately.” In the Washington Times story John Solomon reports: “Mr. Bush…has sent personal letters to the families of every one of the more than 4,000 troops who have died in the two wars, an enormous personal effort that consumed hours of his time and escaped public notice.”

I’m awarding the amateur hour award to Mr. Obama.

Legacy media hypocrisy

Ann Romney slammed for $990 Shirt, Michelle Obama praised for $6,800 jacket

I believe this type of reporting is called “business as usual”.

MSNBC: “Truth is stranger than fiction”

MSNBC abandons GOP convention during every speech by a minority

In lieu of airing speeches from former Democratic Rep. Artur Davis, a black American; Mia Love, a black candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from Utah; and Texas senatorial hopeful Ted Cruz, a Latino American, MSNBC opted to show commentary anchored by Rachel Maddow from Rev. Al Sharpton, Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Chris Hayes and Steve Schmidt.

Just in case you’re wonderin’. Of course, if you’re from Boulder you probably aren’t.
