Yahoo, MSN Brands Could Both Survive A Microsoft Buyout
Microsoft would be better off continuing to offer both Yahoo and MSN sites to maximize traffic and ad dollars, says Jonathan Hurd, director of Altman Vilandrie & Co., a business consulting firm. "This deal is really about advertising and monetizing eyeballs," he said. "You want to see both of these brands continuing, so they don't lose any of these users." Combining Yahoo and MSN services such as finance, real estate, video, travel, e-mail and instant messaging would be a tough but potentially rewarding process, says Shahid Khan, a partner for IBB Consulting Group. "There would be a lot of redundancy there," he said. "It would take two to three years to get it done." Yahoo ranked as the Web's top property in the U.S. in December, with more than 183 million visitors to its sites, according to comScore Networks.
WHS student enjoying time as sideline reporter
A position as a High School Playbook sideline reporter for KOCO News Channel 5 has offered a local teen opportunities to gain experience and improve skills, which could prove valuable as she prepares for college and a career.Woodward junior Mallory Ross, 17, said she has always had an interest in film – an interest that "started out as a hobby.""My cousins and I would make these stupid movies over holidays," she said.But soon Ross began to develop her skills and volunteered her talents to help her church make children's music videos. When her computer teacher Bryan Stephenson suggested she apply for the sideline reporter position, where she would get to film sporting events, Ross said she figured it was worth a shot. She filled out an application one day last and received a call from the television station the next day inviting her to interview.Taking time out from her Thanksgiving break, she went to Oklahoma City and interviewed with some of the station members, including sports reporter Mark Rodgers."It was my first formal interview, so I was a little nervous," Ross said.
McCain's endangered pander.
Anyway, if the GOP has to move left in Western states to compete accommodate a Dem-tending Latino vote (as it almost certainly will, whatever happens) is that such a bad thing? If you move the GOP left you might get a more appealing GOP--the GOP of Gov. Schwarzenegger, for example. ... P.S.: There's something obnoxiously managerial and thuggish in declaring, as Bush and Mehlman do, that "Doing nothing is not an option." Yes it is. It usually is. The whole structure of our Constitution--which makes it very difficult to pass new laws--is based on the premise that doing nothing is not only an option but often the best option. For one thing, doing nothing let's you postpone a decision until you come up with a more prudent plan. Or a more prudent President.
Gov. Schwarzenegger Helps Fainting Boy At Speech
If you watch the video, keep your eye on the left side of the screen. One of the students, Theo Scott-Femenella, 12, wavered and passed out, falling to the ground. It didn't take the governor long to realize what happened. He went right over to help.After a few seconds, the boy was back on his feet with the help of Governor Schwarzenegger, and was carried by his father to the nurse's office."All of a sudden, I wake up and see Patty Smart and Governor Schwarzenegger helping me up from the ground," Theo said. "That meant, 'Oh no, déjà vu.'"Theo had fainted once back in the fourth grade, but as a big sixth grader, he never expected it to happen again, certainly not on camera and in front of the governor. "I'm sure one side of me was thinking, 'Cool, the governor's helping me up,'" Theo said. "But wait, 'I fainted in front of the governor.
