Models in Club 939 Ads

,


It was recently pointed out that the model used in Club 939’s newspaper advertisements is not your typical local girl. If the club is now under local management, why isn’t a “local” model pictured in the ad?

Anyone want to be the local face of 939? Call 808-952-9300 to apply. Alli? Shannon?

Update: Local management has heard the complaints from the blogsphere and is responding with a new ad featuring local girl Apple. Check out Amateur Night on Mondays @939.

Update x2: The new 939 ad with Apple has been posted! Comment away!

Employees, Intangibles, Motivation

The Honolulu Advertiser’s Business section has an article titled “Intangible rewards may motivate best.”

Some snippets:

“…more about feeling supported and involved.”
“Ask my opinion. Let me know what’s going on. Involve me in decisions. Back me up when I make mistakes. Give me some autonomy”
“…given interesting, meaningful work and being shown its context and value to the organization”

Oh so true.

Apple Mighty Mouse Review


Walt Mossberg reviews Apple’s new “no” button mouse in his Technology column. Walt tells it like it is and I usually agree with his comments. Of course, none of his reviews would be complete without mentioning his assistant, Katie. I swear, finding her name in Walt’s columns is like a game of “Where’s Waldo?”

Jordan P-Rods (Zoom Air Elite)

, ,


Missed out on the surprise release of the Jordan P-Rods from the Nike SB line of shoes. Designed by Tinker Hatfield, this shoe sold out quick even at the cost of $200. Niketalk has a discussion going. The June 2005 (Issue 8) copy of Sole Collector has a pic on page 73 (the Lebron cover).

Never paid $200 for a pair of kicks (yet). Closest was my Pippen’s and Jordan XVIII.

Together Tunes Toy Cube


Actually shopped at Neiman Marcus in Ala Moana and picked up a Together Tunes toy for Merynn. It’s a big cube that plays music every time you turn it to a different side. Give it a smack and more music plays.

Simple but fun!

Five little monkeys jumping on the bed,
One fell off and bumped his head,
Momma called the doctor and the doctor said,
No more monkeys jumping on the bed!

What Business Can Learn from Open Source

This essay titled What Business Can Learn from Open Source has some great tidbits of wisdom in it. In short, the author concludes:

So these, I think, are the three big lessons open source and blogging have to teach business: (1) that people work harder on stuff they like, (2) that the standard office environment is very unproductive, and (3) that bottom-up often works better than top-down.
