| Soros: Global investing's godfather | | 2008-05-14 11:59:00 | | George Soros retired as a multibillionaire. But now he's back, hedging his wealth against what he calls the worst economic crisis in 75 years.(Money Magazine) -- Broke and friendless in postwar London, having just spent his last penny on food, 22-year-old George Soros made the first of a lifetime of prescient economic calls. "I have touched bottom," he told himself, "and I am bound to rise."As it turned out, the Hungarian-born survivor of both Soviet and Nazi occupations would do more than merely rise. He would parlay an uncanny flair for anticipating global economic trends into one of the great investing records of all time - not to mention a fortune estimated at $9 billion.Soros retired in 2000 from running hedge funds and delegated control over a large part of his endowment fund to outside managers. But when subprime defaults began to ricochet around the world, he decided, at 77, to start investing again and to put his take on the crisis into a book, "The New Paradigm for Financial ... | | By: How to be Rich, Happy and Free from Scams | | |
| | The Godfather. | | 2008-05-12 06:52:00 | | I watched The Godfather again today and I remembered how it rocked. Honestly, I think this movie is one of the greatest movies of all time!It reminded me of how I've always wanted to be a member of the mafia. There was this time when my friend and I used to meet up at around 5am to jog around the park near the NGI wet market and were thinking of organizing our very own Cosa Nostra. But of course, we didn't have the resources and we didn't want any trouble.Anyways back to the movie, here's what I thought of the actors:Al Pacino = simply awesomeMarlon Brando = greatest "Don" actor of all timeRobert Duvall = still looks the same after all these yearsJames Caan = looked good in the movie except for his super hairy shouldersI did my research and saw that Abe Vigoda was also in this movie. Abe Vigoda's character is Sal Tessio, the person who planned on handing Michael Corleone over to Barzini. Abe also appears occasionally in the Late Night with Conan O'Brien TV show and has his own website ... | | By: Living Life As Me. | | |

| PLDT and Smart's Manny V. Pangilinan as boxing godfather! | | 2007-06-18 01:34:00 | | Just saw this interesting read from ABS-CBN Interactive: "The Amateur Boxing Association of the Philippines may have found a new patron in businessman and sports lover Manny V. Pangilinan.According to Philippine Sports Commission chairman Butch Ramirez, the man they call MVP is keen in supporting the RP boxers’ bid in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.Ramirez said First Gentleman Mike Arroyo wants the boxing association headed by Manny Lopez to prepare a blueprint of its program for the next year’s Olympics.“The First Gentleman wants to know the extent of the program. He wants to know how much it would need to keep it going,” Ramirez said.Ramirez said initial computations showed the boxers would need P15 million to P19 million for the Olympics, including stints in high-caliber international competitions.“I was told that Mr. Pangilinan is interested in boxing. He wants to help the team,” said Ramirez, who is setting up a meeting between Lopez and the First Gentleman.Pangilinan, chai... | | By: The AnitoKid Chronikos | | |
| | The Godfather: Part II. Francis Ford Coppola. | | 2007-05-08 13:47:04 | |
Francis Ford Coppola created the modern film sequel with The Godfather: Part II. I wonder how people who've never seen the first one understand the second one. I was talking to a friend about it and he described it as the best filmic account of “the darkening of a man's heart.” I hadn't seen it in ten years and while that description is perfect, I found it interesting without knowledge of the original, it'd wouldn't really work. One might figure out something was a little off, since Michael's not exactly a person to spend 140 minutes with. Even the last scene moves away from giving any context to the character's tragedy, instead going further--adding an unexpected layer to the character, reversing some of the viewer's assumptions (ones the same scene had initially--and this scene is at most four minutes--reestablished).
In many ways, it's a more depressing version of Citizen Kane, one where it never occurs to Kane to keep the snow globe (which is a good reason there's n... | | By: The Stop Button | | |
