Their outlook on life, whether at home, at work, behind the wheel or at the theater, directly correlates to the decision to be either positive or negative. In essence, it's as simple as whether you see the glass half full or half empty. As author Stephen R. Covey puts it in his much publicized book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People ,* you can choose to be proactive or you can choose to be reactive. He takes his theory a step fur …

2007-08-18 06:25 DAY 17: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)
For years after the divorce of his parents, Spielberg had a contentious relationship with his father Arnold (the resentment being reflected in his films through the recurring theme of an irrelevant, absentee or even abusive father). Finally, after many years, Steven and Arnold reconciled in what the director has called a tremendous coming together : a meeting of the hearts and of the minds between a father and a son. Thus, when the time came to make the third--and presumably final--Indiana Jon …

2007-08-09 06:35 DAY 9: Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
There is a moment in Raiders of the Lost Ark when Indiana Jones, having confessed to a friend that he s really just making this all up as he goes, rides into frame atop a white horse and takes off after a truck full of Nazis while his rousing theme music swells to epic proportions. It is in this scene, I would argue, that the character of Indiana Jones officially achieves mythic status. Like John Wayne or Clint Eastwood, Indiana Jones, famous archaeologist and rugged adventurer, is a hero in …

2007-08-09 00:07 Apple eMac and Microsoft XBox
It seems a fitting day for this to happen. On the day that Apple releases the iMac - a beautiful computer, a friend of the family gave us it's older cousin, the eMac. The eMac is really the CRT version of the iMac. It looks like something out of 2001 A Space Odyssey - I think it's more a piece of art than a computer. It's a pretty swift little (big) computer, though! I'm impressed. We're going to upgrade it to 512Mb of RAM and find a place to show it off in out house. My home is fast becoming an …

It's a discussion that's getting old, but with the advent of Outlook 2007 support for RSS - the online industry continues to make comparisons between RSS and email for online Marketing Communications (with SMS right around the corner). From a content management standpoint, a lot of Industry folks think of all of these as 'output' types. That's a really ignorant view. It's like looking at Direct Mail and a Bulletin Board the same because you used the same copy in both places. RSS versus Email: RS …
