“The Chi­nese prime min­is­ter, Wen Jiabao, spoke in unusu­ally blunt terms on Fri­day about the “safety” of China’s $1 tril­lion invest­ment in Amer­i­can gov­ern­ment debt, the world’s largest such hold­ing, and urged the Obama admin­is­tra­tion to offer assur­ances that the secu­ri­ties would main­tain their value.” He’s not the only one.

So how exactly are you taxed or bet­ter yet what are mar­ginal tax rates.

“From my per­spec­tive, the most dis­rup­tive thing about Twit­ter is its
pres­ence. It’s every­where at all times in a way that only an AT&T “You
Will”-style com­mer­cial could have pre­dicted in 1995 (or could explain
in 2009–funny how that goes huh?). Peo­ple get and give Tweets from
the time they wake up until they fall asleep.”

To do so add: “<meta http-equiv=“X-UA-Compatible” content=“IE=EmulateIE7” />”

Some­times you have to just quit smoking.

“This is the crux of the prob­lem with the Face­book redesign. The expec­ta­tions around how user rela­tion­ships were cre­ated on Twit­ter are totally dif­fer­ent from how they were on Face­book. On Twit­ter, users explic­itly decide as part of fol­low­ing some­one that they want all of the person’s tweets in their stream. In fact, this is the only fea­ture of the rela­tion­ship on Twit­ter. On Face­book, you have rela­tion­ships with peo­ple that attempt to mir­ror your real life so you have your boss, cowork­ers, school friends and acquain­tances all try­ing to be part of your social graph because FB is really a kind of “rolodex” in the sky.”

“But under the Obama administration’s edu­ca­tion stim­u­lus pack­age, Mr. Lam­born, who needs every penny he can get, will receive hun­dreds of dol­lars less per stu­dent than will Dr. Bai­ley, who says he does not need the extra money.” Weird account rules don’t always work out for the best.

When you aren’t get­ting any­where with being fru­gal, con­sider stop being so frugal.

“We’re in a once-a-century finan­cial cri­sis, and yet we’ve actu­ally descended into pol­i­tics worse than usual. There don’t seem to be any adults at the top — nobody act­ing larger than the moment, nobody being impelled by any­thing deeper than the last news cycle. Instead, Con­gress is slap­ping together puni­tive tax laws overnight like some Banana Repub­lic, our pres­i­dent is get­ting in trou­ble crack­ing jokes on Jay Leno com­par­ing his bowl­ing skills to a Spe­cial Olympian, and the oppo­si­tion party is behav­ing as if its only pri­or­ity is to deflate Pres­i­dent Obama’s popularity.”

Just when you thought you had seen everything.

What’s your stan­dard web design and devel­op­ment con­tract look like.

“Busi­ness incen­tives are com­pletely lack­ing today for upgrad­ing to IPv6, the next gen­er­a­tion Inter­net pro­to­col, accord­ing to a sur­vey of net­work oper­a­tors con­ducted by the Inter­net Soci­ety (ISOC).” Another time I’m con­flicted, I see the point when exec­u­tive pay is so far from line worker’s pay it’s silly to even com­pare the two at the same time I’m pro gov­ern­ment leav­ing busi­ness alone.

I think the best bit is when he uses that num­ber in his Wall Street Jour­nal columns, shouldn’t those be fact checked before publication?

“Sum­mary: On his Fox News pro­gram, Sean Han­nity falsely claimed that “a par­lia­men­tary pro­ce­dure called rec­on­cil­i­a­tion” would allow the Obama admin­is­tra­tion to pass leg­is­la­tion “with­out any Repub­li­cans even hav­ing an oppor­tu­nity to vote.” In fact, accord­ing to the House Rules Committee’s descrip­tion of the bud­get rec­on­cil­i­a­tion process, the ver­sion of rec­on­cil­i­a­tion leg­is­la­tion agreed to dur­ing the con­fer­ence process is then “brought back to the full House and Sen­ate for a vote on final pas­sage. Approval of the con­fer­ence agree­ment on the rec­on­cil­i­a­tion leg­is­la­tion must be by a major­ity vote of both Houses.”” More info to inform yourself.

“Deep tech­ni­cal com­pe­tency is over­rated com­pared with the abil­ity to make excel­lent deci­sions and to cre­ate a cul­ture where for­ward motion is val­ued and per­sonal ini­tia­tive is rewarded.” 100% agreed.

“Richard Hol­brooke said the $800m (£550m) a year the US was spend­ing on counter-narcotics would be bet­ter used in sup­port­ing Afghan farm­ers.” You think.

Every­thing is vul­ner­a­ble, that being said the arti­cle makes is sounds like their is very few safety fea­tures in place.

“ecoder is an open-source web-based code edi­tor, with real-time colour syn­tax high­light­ing, which allows mul­ti­ple doc­u­ments to be edited directly online at the same time.” Still in beta.

“North Korea has con­firmed the arrest of two female US jour­nal­ists, say­ing they were detained for ille­gally enter­ing North Korean ter­ri­tory.” They both work for Cur­rent TV which is par­tially funded by Al Gore. North Korea is claim­ing they were ille­gally on their ter­ri­tory though they might have never been in North Korea.

“The Trans­porta­tion Secu­rity Admin­is­tra­tion, the Depart­ment of Home­land Secu­rity and the largest air­line pilots union say no. In fact, TSA says the pro­gram is being expanded. The claim comes from anony­mous pilots inter­viewed by a Wash­ing­ton Times edi­to­r­ial writer.” Though it should be dropped.

“Pay­ing an extra $500 for a com­puter in this envi­ron­ment — same piece of hard­ware — pay­ing $500 more to get a logo on it?” Ballmer you are a moron, peo­ple aren’t pay­ing for the logo.

Do you have a pres­i­dent of mar­gin­ally legal activities?
