who was Ayn Rand? - a biography, Playboy interview, 1964

who was Ayn Rand? - a biography, Playboy interview, 1964:

"PLAYBOY: In Atlas Shrugged, one of your leading characters is asked,
'What's the most depraved type of human being?' His reply is surprising: He
doesn't say a sadist or a murderer or a sex maniac or a dictator; he says, 'The
man without a purpose.' Yet most people seem to go through their lives without a
clearly defined purpose. Do you regard them as depraved?
RAND: Yes, to a
certain extent."


This comes from an Interview Playboy Magazine did with Ayn Rand.

ABC News: Doctor: Angelina Jolie Gives Birth to Twins:

"The obstetrician who delivered the twins, Dr. Michel Sussmann, told The
Associated Press that the actress, the babies and Jolie's partner, actor Brad
Pitt, 'are doing marvelously well.'"


I take this to mean they really have been born now. Congrats to Bran and Angelina, and if this is another rumor, then, well congrats when it happens if it does.

McCain breaks with economic adviser over 'whiners' remark - USATODAY.com

McCain breaks with economic adviser over 'whiners' remark - USATODAY.com:

"He went on to say the U.S. is not in a recession, which is defined as two
consecutive quarters of negative growth, but many people seem to think so.
'You've heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession.'"


I don't understand the anger about this statement. It is true. If you think you have a solid job and you will get a raise, you spend money, you spend your credit. That spending creates jobs for the people who sell the things you buy, and transport it and often make it. When you think that you might lose your job, or that you will not be able to afford the things you need, you spend less money. That slow down in spending causes stores to cut back hours for workers and to lay people off. In this way, there is a very mental aspect to the economy.

Starbucks Gossip: Starbucks releases the list of stores that will close by the end of July

Starbucks Gossip: Starbucks releases the list of stores that will close by the end of July:

"'Poor real estate decisions that were made, coupled with a very troubled
economy, convinced us that these stores would not reach acceptable levels of
profitability,' Howard Schultz wrote in a memo to employees earlier this week."


Click the link to see the whole list, state by state. I think I would add to this that the company competes with itself too much. Why go to Starbucks when you can get one of its coffee drinks from Safeway, or Longs or a number of other stores.
