Apple’s Rising Influence in Business
2008-05-02 08:19:00 Very interesting cover story in BusinessWeek about soaring demand for Macs inside of companies. In some ways, this is an inevitable outgrowth of the success of the iPod. Sales of the iPod goose home sales of Macs, and once you’ve got a Mac, you never want to work in Windows again. Writer Peter Burrows says it well: But now the call is coming from mainstream users, people who may have started off with an iPod, then bought a Mac at home and no longer want a “Windows-by-day, Mac-by-night” existence. This may be a sign of hope for all of us Mac users-in-exile. I work in an all-ThinkPad office, and dream of getting to live an all-Mac life. But since we’re consultants, we use the same machines that our clients do. What does that mean? Buy more Macs, corporate world! Then we can ditch Windows for good!

Moby Dick's Influence on Personal Finance

I can't eat a basket of shrimp at Sizzler's...It has to be a gluttony battle with my brother on baskets killed. Kind of an all or nothing sort of mentality.This is not unlike Moby Dick...I know you think that I am nuts, but it is a story of someone that loses the forest for the trees. He can't just hunt whales, but has to go after the Godzilla of a whale that crushed his boat and ate his leg...maybe with Tarter Sauce just to be extra mean.I often feel the same way. I know that I MUST do X, Y and/or Z, but against my better judgement I try to do all of them and end up not getting any of them.This was drilled home as a child.

Leadership 101: Influence vs. Position
2008-04-21 12:17:00 Every individual is a leader. In many cases, people don't realize this but in every case this is true. Every person that you influence to do good or bad, you have led in a very small way. Of course, those who have the most influence are most often recognized as leaders but the truth is that every person impacts and leads those around them at least a little bit.Leading those around us is actually something that we ought to desire. Let me explain. We shouldn't necessarily be looking to be in charge of an organization or a committee, but we should be looking to continually be a greater influence for the cause of Christ in everything that we do. We should actively be looking for ways to very subtly leave an impact on those around us to encourage them to do right. There is a common misconception that leadership is simply being in charge of people. Being in charge of people, however, is not leadership. It is simply management. A leader is someone who can inspire people to foll...

Automakers Underspend on Media that Influence Buyers
2008-04-21 02:23:00 Some 17.5% of General Motors customers say TV influences their auto purchase, but GM spent 40% of its $3 Billion+ ad budget on TV ads in 2006 (proportions similar to other leading automakers?), according to an analysis by BIGresearch.The analysis comes amid reports of automakers? reallocation of more dollars to digital advertising. But those moves may not be going far enough, suggests BIGresearch?s most recent Simultaneous Media Survey (SIMM 11, Dec. 07) of 15,727 participants.Top automotive advertisers pumped by far the greatest percentage of their media dollars into TV in ?06 - the most unbalanced media spend compared with the medium?s influence on consumers to purchase (approximately 40% vs. 17-18% for major automakers):Because such a large portion of ad dollars were allocated to TV, automakers in under-spent on other forms of media, such as newspaper, magazines, radio and the internet, BIGresearch said.For example, Ford spent only 5.89% of its budget on newspaper advertising, wh...

Dad's Hidden Influence A father's legacy to a child's health may start befo
2008-04-21 02:20:00 Dad's Hidden InfluenceA father's legacy to a child's health may start before conception and last generationsTina Hesman SaeyPregnant women know the drill. Don't drink. Don't smoke. Don't eat too much fish. Take vitamins. Mothers have long shouldered the responsibility, and the blame, for their children's health. Fathers don't usually face the same scrutiny. How a man lives, where he works, or how old he is when his children are conceived doesn't affect their long-term health, scientists used to think. But growing evidence suggests that a father's age and his exposure to chemicals can leave a medical legacy that lasts generations. Animal studies demonstrate that drugs, alcohol, radiation, pesticides, solvents, and other chemicals can lead to effects that are handed from father to son. Human studies are less clear, but some show that fathers play a role in fetal development and the health of their children. Teenage dads face increased risk that their babies will be born pr...

That’s a nice piece of change for a Republican incumbent to take on any challengers, eh? But on March 20, Rep. Reynolds became the 29th Republican in the 110th Congress to announce his or her intended departure (or actually leave) the House, saying: While there is always more to do, elected officials are only temporary stewards of the people?s trust. That?s why today I am announcing that I will not seek and be a candidate for reelection. [emphasis added] Now that Rep. Reynolds won’t be a steward of the public’s trust, what kind of a steward will he be of the million bucks of other people’s money tucked away in his campaign fund? Ac...
Are Your Friends a Bad Influence?
2008-04-19 07:01:00 Michael was a 17 year old boy who had ridden a church bus almost every Sunday for several years during his childhood and into his teen years. There were several people who had invested a lot of time and prayer into Michael?s life. At one point during his years of riding the bus, he made a confession of faith. If you talked to Michael, he could tell you about the day that he asked Christ to save him.During the summer of 2003, I got to know this young man while I was home for summer break from college. He and my brother attended the youth revival at my home church that summer. When I saw them together at the revival meetings, I made the connection that they knew each other. I made a specific effort to invest time and love in my brother and in his friends. I spent a lot of time talking and listening to them trying to lead them closer toward the things of the Lord.Back to college I went and as far as I knew Michael was still riding the bus. My brother, Brandon, had had enough of the...

Study shows that stimuli unrelated to decision can still influence men’s
2008-04-06 21:30:00 Attractive women plus cool cars equal brisk sales for auto dealers as men snap up those cars, prompted—or so advertising theory goes—by the association. But is the human male really so easily swayed? Can the irrelevant image of an alluring female posing by the merchandise actually encourage a heterosexual man to purchase it? Possibly, according to a new study by Stanford researchers. The study showed that when heterosexual men are exposed to positive emotional stimuli—in this case, erotic photos of a man and woman—an area of the brain associated with anticipation of reward is stimulated. In the immediate aftermath of that stimulation, men are consistently more likely to take bigger financial risks than they otherwise would, said Brian Knutson, assistant professor of psychology. "This is the first study to demonstrate that emotional stimuli can influence financial risk-taking," said Knutson, lead author of a paper describing the research in the current issue of NeuroReport...
