What Else I Know about Neel Kashkari #14 Stow, OH is Somewhere

I wrote – 13 Things We Know about Neel Kashkari

Edward replied (and I’d be glad to say thanks to Ed had he left an email, but…he did not. Still, thanks!, about Stow, OH and Neel Kashkari -

“First of all, Stow is not 'nowhere' as Bill put it, but a very friendly, more upscale town with middle to upper income families in a suburb near the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. It borders Hudson and Silver Lake which are also neighborhoods or wealth. Stow's high school, although public, is rated as one of the top public schools in Ohio, so it isn't strange that his Indian parents chose Stow for the child's education (later he attended Western Reserve Academy in nearby Hudson). Stow used to be mostly farmland and horse ranches until homes began to constructed for the increasing move to the suburbs of Summit County such as Stow. It has a hike and bike trail (fully paved) that runs along the Cuyahoga River, as well as many golf courses including the newest and most expensive Roses Run Country Club. Neel grew up close to Silver Lake Country Club. Stow is a beautiful place to have lived. “

I love blogging, especially when I get corrected, or as some might put it – taught.

Thanks again, Edward

Tony Blair's resignation as Labour Party leader and Prime Minister was reported matter-of-factly by one Chinese online news source.

Commenting on Blair's demeanor – more 'relaxed than usual' and at times, 'choked with emotions' the online Chinese newspaper said, Blair would "tender his resignation as prime minister to Queen Elizabeth on June 27."

Gordon Brown, Britain's powerful finance minister, is considered the heavy ftony.blair.jpgavorite to replace the Tony Blair, who spent just ove 10-years at the helm.

Blair's legacy includes his severly waning popularity because of his support for the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and a recent political scandal regarding giving favored seats to campaign contributors.

Blair's announcement also comes the week "Protestant Unionism leader Ian Paisley and Sinn Fein's Martin McGuinness, a former IRA commander, were sworn in as Northern Ireland's power-sharing executive" capping 10 years of Blair's work for peace.

Peace here….war there…I guess you can't have it all.

Sony Wows Them!

Posted: 12 Sep 2010 05:29 AM PDT


Japan still has a business lead in some areas. Gaming is one of them.

At the Electronic Entertainment Expo in LA that began this week Sony wowed the audience with a demonstration of PS3 . When I heard how much it cost, even I said, "Wow!"  $499 for 20 gigabyte version. For another Ben Franklin you can get 6 more gigabyte.

Excelling in the graphics is where Sony wanted to distinguish itself. Japan pays tremendous attention to detail. I am not surprised that the Japanese can do this part better than anyone.

But, Sony is not the only company that is vying for the lead in the gaming industry – in this case Sony wants to keep its lead. Another Japanese company, Nintendo and Microsoft are trying to make serious hacks at Sony’s marketshare.

Sony Computer Entertainment of America president, Kaz Hirai, demonstrated the confidence he has in Sony products – "We have said many times that the next generation of gaming doesn’t start until we say it has started."

Well, tell us….has it started? Or do we need to wait until November when PS3 comes out?
