As Mars Blackman said, “it’s gotta be the shoes!” Relive the Air Jordans released over the years at the updated Jumpman23 site.
Ah, such memories. During my playing days, I’ve had the the Air Jordan I, IV, VIII, XI, XIII, and XVIII. I wanna be like Mike!

Just read about the iTunes U service targeted at educational institutions. Schools can place educational material on-line on a customized iTunes site. Students can then access and download the information from anywhere at anytime.
Why couldn’t this be adopted for work purposes? I’ve already taken many on-line courses for work. Too bad [...]

US Postal Service Dog Stamp. The latest from their on-going collection.
Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman. Yeah, so he’s cheesy, but he brings popularity to Hawaii.

CNN and CareerBuilder.com want to help your resume by providing 25 words that could actually do more harm than good. The underlying theme is to provide specific examples of your work and its impact rather than using these words to summarize your deeds.
So if you are an aggressive, efficient, motivated team player then maybe [...]

Kinda cool.

Ate at the recently opened Romano’s Macaroni Grill in Ala Moana. Pretty good Italian food, big place, got crowded real fast but also very noisy. We tried the Pasta Milano and Sausage & Peppers Classico. I liked the big bowls.
Later in the day, we went back to Elements Hawaii to continue tech [...]

Drew Lachey (Nick’s brother) rocked Week 4 of Dancing with the Stars. His paso doble danced to Michael Jackson’s Thriller was energetic (did you see his cape entrance?) and fun with throwbacks of MJ’s moves. Check out the video (Real Player needed).
Again, Master P sucked, getting a score of 8 out of 30. [...]

Right now, there’s a free video from the January 20 showing of [...]

Hawaii Starbucks are now real Starbucks after the parent company bought out its local partner, Coffee Partners Hawaii. So now employees are full fledged Starbucks workers.
For the customers, everything should be coffee as usual. Although I wonder when Starbucks International will offer the same menu as Starbucks. You can’t find the new [...]

This teaming/merger seems more like a done deal than Apple and Starbucks teaming up. Disney could be buying out Pixar Animation, the guys that brought “Toy Story” and “Finding Nemo” to life.
Oh, the CEO of Pixar is some dude named Steve Jobs who also runs a fruit company. If this deal is made [...]

Not sure how legit this is, but kinda makes sense for Apple and Starbucks to team up and do what they do best. Starbucks is getting into the music business so why not push it and get Apple’s popular iTunes and iPods involved?
When you go to Starbucks for a caffeine hit, you would also [...]

A long article (but still good reading) about doing what you love. Interesting points about what you learn about work while going to school, the misnomer of prestigious tasks, and so much more.
The test of whether people love what they do is whether they’d do it even if they weren’t paid for it.
If you [...]
