Kouchner, Microhoo-Google, Obama-Clinton, les lions etc...

Voilà que je ressens le décalage horaire avec une certaine acuité, voire violence. Dur dur...
  • "Homme d'état sans frontières"; le journal New York Times signe dans son édition de ce week-end un portrait du French doctor et ministre des Affaires étrangères, Bernard Kouchner. "The issue that the French find most entertaining to debate about Kouchner is: Does he matter? One line of argument runs that while Kouchner gets to do the hot spots — Darfur, Lebanon, Kosovo — Sarkozy turns to Levitte when it comes to great-power diplomacy. And the Syrian misadventure implies that Kouchner can’t even exercise control over the hot spots. Pierre Haski, director of Rue89, a left-leaning French foreign-affairs Web site, calls Kouchner “the weakest minister of foreign affairs in memory, except for Douste-Blazy."
  • MicroHoo & Google : searching for the next big thing. (BBC) Google a visiblement décidé de jouer les troubles-fête en soulignant les risques pour la concurrence et l'innovation sur Internet que pourraient avoir le rachat de Yahoo par Microsoft. Sur le blog de Google on peut ainsi lire : "So Microsoft's hostile bid for Yahoo! raises troubling questions. This is about more than simply a financial transaction, one company taking over another. It's about preserving the underlying principles of the Internet: openness and innovation." Bonne analyse de Robert Scoble sur les motivations de Google pour retarder le deal.
  • Cameroun-Tunisie : 3-2 (Camfoot). Voilà un sacré match et le résultat n'est bien sûr pas pour me déplaire...Rendez-vous dans quelques jours face au Ghana. Vu que je n'ai pas de chaîne retransmettant le match, 1000 mercis à François qui a joué le commentateur sportif pour le moins "surprenant". Petit lien pour le fun : les pronostics d'avant match sur Yahoo answsers, force est de constater que beaucoup ne donnaient pas cher de notre peau.

There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept. Jennifer "JJ" Jareau

The Jennifer "JJ"Jareau principle In the critically acclaimed US TV Show Criminal Minds , Jennifer "JJ"Jareau a.k.a "JJ" quoted nicely her exit interview in the 2nd episode of the 6th Season.  Here's what I named it the Jennifer "JJ" Jareau principle. I'm thankful for my years spent with this family; for everything we shared, every chance we had to grow.  I'll take the best of them and lead by their example; where ever I go.  A friend told me to be honest with you, so here it goes.  This isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road.  Maybe it's because I look at everything as a lesson, or I don't want to walk around angry.  Or maybe it's because I finally understand.  There are things we don't want to happen, but have to accept; things we don't want to know, but have to learn, and people we can't live without, but have to let go. As you can see, ...

This isn't what I want, but I'll take the high road. | JJ Principle (1)

Take the High Road. I am sure several ones of you have heard it before tossed at like a wisdom nugget, and have wondered "which road is that ?" or worse, should you have been too stunned or lost, your mouth merely expulsed two words "come again ?" Truth be told, it's one of these sentences that are thrown away when a conflict arises, but on which, few can give a precise defintion. I'll try my best to remedy to that.   So what does "Take the high road" really means ? John C. Maxwell theorized The High Road Principle gives us a good explanation by stating that there are three roads or options that we can take in life:   The low road : where we treat people worse than they treat us. The middle road : where we treat people the same as they treat us The high road : where we treat people better than they treat us Let's ponder the options set out by Mr Maxwell 1. The Low Road If treated poorly, one reaction co...
