    DEADLINE.com FROM THE BLACK WE HEAR-- MARK (V.O.) Did you know there are more people with genius IQ’s living in China than there are people of any kind living in the United States? ERICA (V.O.) That can’t possibly be true. MARK (V.O.) It is. ERICA (V.O.) What would account for that? MARK (V.O.) Well, first, an awful lot of people live in China. But here’s my question: FADE IN: INT. CAMPUS BAR - NIGHT MARK ZUCKERBERG is a sweet looking 19 year old whose lack of any physically intimidating attributes masks a very complicated and dangerous anger. He has trouble making eye contact and sometimes it’s hard to tell if he’s talking to you or to himself. ERICA, also 19, is Mark’s date. She has a girl-next-door face that makes her easy to fall for. At this point in the conversation she already knows that she’d rather not be there and her politeness is about to be tested. The scene is stark and simple. MARK How do you distinguish yourself in a population of people who all got 1600 on theirDEADLINE.com SAT’s? ERICA I didn’t know they take SAT’s in China. MARK They don’t. I wasn’t talking about China anymore, I was talking about me. ERICA You got 1600? MARK Yes. I could sing in an a Capella group, but I can’t sing. 2. ERICA Does that mean you actually got nothing wrong? MARK I can row crew or invent a 25 dollar PC.

  • Totally Oarsome…
    Leander New s Leander Club Newslette r Winter 2010 Totally Oarsome… Leander has had another very strong year in 2010. We have produced winning crews at every level and with the World Championships less than a week away, there is promise of yet more success for Leander athletes and coaches in New Zealand. These Championships are two months later than usual to fit in with the New Zealand summer, and as a result it seems strange to be reflecting on the season thus far when it is not yet finished. One of the positives of this situation is that it reduces the amount of winter training that many of us will have to do for the 2011 season! The most recent addition to the team is Beijing silver medallist Debbie Flood, who following a training camp in Germany has been confirmed as competing in the women’s quad - the boat in which she has twice won silver at successive Olympic Games.

  • Facebook: a Like Story Why Investors Shouldn’T Fall in Love
    Facebook: A Like Story Why investors shouldn’t fall in love Edited by Jeffrey Goldfarb and Robert Cyran Cover design by Troy Dunkley 2 CONTENTS Preface ……………………….………. 4 The present ……………………….. 6 The past ………………………….… 14 Early days ……………………….…. 15 Growing up …………………….…. 22 Proud parents ……………….….. 32 The Future ………………………... 36 3 PREFACE WELL-FLAGGED - Facebook and its Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg have raised some red flags for investors, including how the switch to mobile could be a big problem. REUTERS/Jim Young Facebook’s initial public offering is the seminal event of the capital markets in 2012. Breakingviews has followed the social network’s growth in analytical fashion since soon after it started in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard University dorm room in 2004. We’ve compiled a selection of some two dozen of these incisive stories to illustrate Facebook’s trajectory and increasing importance , from its origins as a site used by college students to a business with approaching a billion users and, after its IPO, potentially worth more than $100 billion. 4 “Facebook: A Like Story” kicks off with a timely, pertinent piece on how governments, rival businesses and Wall Street have become financially dependent on Facebook’s debut. The book also contains a handy number-cruncher - accompanied by an interactive calculator - that allows investors to value Facebook’s stock and see what assumptions are needed to reach the company’s indicated price of between $28 and $35 a share. Moving further back the company’s own timeline, the chapter entitled “The Past” explores how Facebook forged its path to domination in social media, often seemingly by the seat of its pants.
