higher chance now. GM is trying to cut down the workforce but the union is strongly opposing. in additions, its model is not fuel efficient.

hard to say, esp. the fed may start the increasing rate cycle to fight against inflation.

if they can't sign a deal by Sep, there will be no point for the acquisition anymore.

nothing new but $31

i don't think so. it will rise up to $140 soon this summer, and reach much higher this winter.

As the official said: equality for women the country has to address many issues, including child marriage, female illiteracy, malnutrition and taboos on women in public places. I think the PM will do all he can to achieve the goal, but there are very traditional power groups in play as well.

It's a very funny location eyed by entire world - surely there will be some degree of protests.

OLPC has under-estimated the power of commodity - even the commercial products (by Dell and others) can cut the price tag as low as the OLPC's laptop.

The evidence (if any) were already altered or destroyed. It happened in 2006. It's more a easy case for RCMP - probably take years to investigate.

It's a very important tradition for IOC which will surely try the best to complete it - even not disclosing the route.

I vote for S3 as it is more flexible.

There are significant differences between S3 and Google App Engine – namely, that the latter wants you to run your Web service completely on Google (including requiring a Google account) while S3 lets you choose what pieces of it you want to put “in the cloud.”

no don't see the market here.

I picked all the ladies as the potential VP.

Condolleeza Rice:
She is certainly qualified to be Vice-President and she would undercut Obama or Hillary's "change" appeal. On the other hand, she's very closely connected to Bush, has never run for public office before, very little is known about her domestic views, and she has turned in a less than stellar performance as Secretary of State.

Sarah Palin: she would bring a down to earth, real person style to the ticket. Her youth, 44 years old, would appeal to the young soccer mom crowd.

Elizabeth Dole: she has actually accomplished more in her life than Hillary Clinton and would definitely have the gravitas to beat her up and take the women's vote from Hill if she gets the nomination.

btw it announced 10% cut of job today. how sad - it only results 1.6% increase in its stock price.

The Arabian price already owns 9% of AMD. It's obvious intention to buy out part of this company. It's just a matter if the US senate will allow the deal (for the national security).

It's just a way to promote the brandname, equalizing the importance of Apple with NYC. Well .. bad trick imo.

it's real: http://www.informationweek.com/news/h...

He was a good DH, but now he is not capable to run anymore. I don't see any league want him.

IMO, there will be a high demand of gold this summer in Asia (eg. India and China). In addition with the US recession, the gold price will easily rise back to $1000.

it's obvious recession. given the inflation is not too high, the fed will keep cutting the rate low.
