The first mobile device powered by Google Inc.’s (GOOG)
“Android” mobile-phone software will be launched Tuesday in New York. The smartphone is expected to sell for $199.
It will require a service contract with T-Mobile USA, which is hoping the price of the phone and the data service will make it attractive to the mass consumer market, rather than just gadget lovers.

Deal With Reliance ADA
The principals of DreamWorks SKG (DWA) have completed
a long-anticipated deal with one of India’s largest entertainment
conglomerates to set up a new $1.2 billion film
company, according to people familiar with the matter.
The deal gives DreamWorks co-founder Steven Spielberg
and his team the financial support they need to leave
Viacom Inc.’s (VIA) Paramount Pictures and start a new
venture. Under the signed agreement, Mumbai-based
Reliance ADA Group will invest $500 million equity and
provide another $700 million in debt through J.P Morgan
Chase & Co. toward the new venture, which will produce a
slate of about six films a year. News of the talks between
DreamWorks principals and Reliance first surfaced in June,
but an agreement wasn’t finalized until now, these people
said. The new company will be headed by Mr. Spielberg
and DreamWorks Chief Executive Stacey Snider.

5 Success Tips You Never Learn in School
5 Success Tips You Never Learn in School
Posted By Anita Campbell On August 25, 2008 @ 2:20 pm In Featured, Small Biz Success | 28 Comments
Probably the most important success skills I’ve learned in business involve overcoming my own negative emotions and personality traits and habits. Call it learning “life skills for entrepreneurs.”
I’d like to share 5 lessons I’ve learned, that I wish I’d learned in college — or much earlier on in my business career. These five things have had the biggest impact on my success so far in my small business:
1. Stop Being a Control Freak
Learning the fine line between giving direction and delegating is one of the toughest things for me. My natural tendency is to want to do it all myself. Of course, I can’t.
I have to keep checking myself. I’m far from perfect. But I’ve found that it helps to visualize the power of leverage. Getting 5 sets of hands working on your business means greater success than one set of hands — even if those hands are part-time or just a few hours a month from a service provider.
Try visualizing this incredibly simple graphic if you, too, need help checking your tendencies to be a control freak:
2. Build Incrementally
There are different schools of thought about growth. Some are of the “go big or go home” approach. Been there, done that.
The approach that I feel most comfortable with is one of developing products and services gradually, making incremental enhancements.
Start small, spend as little as you can, and build on early successes. Quickly dump the stuff that doesn’t work out.
If you take this approach, your risks of going down the wrong path and spending lots of development time and money on offerings that fail, will be minimal.
It’s also a way to gather market research along the way. You learn what customers want and you’re early enough you can build that feedback into your offering.
3. Think About a Business Problem the Last Thing at Night
Often you hear advice that suggests you should compartmentalize and put your problems out of your mind, especially late at night when you want to get some sleep. But for solving business problems, I’ve found the opposite works. I will sit down at my computer for 15 minutes right before going to bed. I’ll look at an email message that outlines a troubling problem or I will just jot down a problem and study it. I say to myself, “I’ll think about this overnight.” Then I go to bed.
You see, your subconscious mind works while you sleep. Thinking about a business problem the last thing at night is how you harness your subconscious to work on that problem.
Sometimes I literally will wake up with the solution — or easily think of several potential solutions the next day.
4. Treat Your Computer Systems Like a Factory Production Line
For millions of business owners like me, our computers are the biggest set of business equipment we have — and they’re crucial. Without a computer system, I cannot operate my business.
Yet, why do so many of us still treat our computer systems as if they’re discretionary gadgets? That’s one of the mysteries of the universe.
It’s the Rodney Dangerfield syndrome — they “get no respect.” We don’t back up our data regularly. We don’t do maintenance (such as de-fragging or critical updates) the way we should. Our electronic files are a disorganized mess. We practically ignore our computer systems until a problem happens. Then the problem turns into a full-blown crisis.
When I worked in the corporate world, the division I worked in had a factory. The division was in the electronic publishing industry, and the factory involved scanning of documents, manual data entry, and the output of CDs and microfiche at the other end. Knowledge-work, but still a factory. Business was booming and that factory operated 3 shifts, 24 hours a day.
Often when I would visit the factory, I would see a part of one operation or another shut down for a few hours, while the employees worked on maintaining the equipment (including computer equipment).
The plant manager never said to himself, “we’re so busy we can’t afford to stop and do a few hours maintenance.” No, he knew that regular maintenance would keep the production lines running and yield the highest throughput each month.
5. Pretend you Have an Accounting Department
Everybody in business hears the standard advice about the need to track and understand your financial numbers. Unfortunately, that kind of advice is easy to give, but hard to follow.
Part of the reason startup entrepreneurs avoid bookkeeping in the early years is that the numbers can be flat-out dismal. I hate to look at bad numbers.
I like to work on things that make me feel good. Paltry numbers or negative bottom lines do not make me feel good.
But you know what? Those numbers are unlikely to get better unless we as business owners find the courage to face them.
The biggest challenge for me was getting past my emotional block. To overcome that block, I would pretend I had an accounting department. I scheduled a few hours every weekend to “be the accounting department.” It wasn’t ME personally looking at the numbers, something that would have made me feel like I personally was failing. Rather, it was the accounting department looking at the numbers — in a detached manner.
Looking at your financial numbers is one of the most clarifying of activities. I was able to “see” things in my business I never saw before, weed out the low value activities, and focus on profitability.

A list of the five most important lessons I’ve learned as an entrepreneur:
Entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and blogger, Guy Kawasaki
1. Focus on cash flow. I understand the difference between cash flow and profitability, and I’m not recommending that you strive for a lack of profitability. But cash is what keeps the doors open and pays the bills.
2. Make a little progress every day. My theory is that you make a little bit of progress every day–whether that’s making your product slightly better, increasing your skill in one small way, or closing one more customer.
3. Try stuff. Luck favors the people who try stuff, not simply think and analyze.
4. Ignore schmexperts. Schmexperts are the totally bad combination of schmucks who are experts–or experts who are schmucks.
5. Never ask anyone to do something that you wouldn’t do.

Video: PALO ALTO: Bigfoot Hunter Talks About His Claim To Have Found The Elusive Beast
Has Bigfoot Been Living In Georgia Swamp?
UPDATED: 4:09 pm PDT August 15, 2008
PALO ALTO, Calif. -- While Bigfoot sightings have been reported from the wilderness near Northern California’s majestic Mt. Shasta to the backwoods of Michigan, three hunters of the elusive beast announced Friday that they believe at least three have been living in a rural Georgia swamp for years.
To back up their claims, the men claimed to have a corpse of the hairy beast crammed in a Georgia freezer and will allow a group of scientists to conduct a necropsy.
Matt Whitton and Rick Dyer say they stumbled across the corpse in the woods of north Georgia, across the country from the remote regions of the Northwest where people usually claim to see the man-ape.
Whitton said the lifeless body was lying alongside a creek with a visible stomach injury. As the two were carrying the body out of the woods, they were followed by two other Bigfoots.
At a Palo Alto news conference, the men -- joined by veteran Bigfoot hunter Tom Biscardi -- said three DNA had come up inconclusive. One test said the DNA was human, another possum and a third did not reach a conclusion. They also released two photos showing the creature’s teeth and a photo allegedly showing one of the Bigfoot that followed the pair out of the woods.
Whitton and Dyer said they found Bigfoot dead near a stream after they had hiked into secluded woods for a camping trip.
"It was a pretty fresh body," said Whitton, who added that he and those who have seen the body, about eight or 10 people, have not officially determined how the creature died.
Whitton said he waited by the body for about nine hours while Dyer hiked out of the woods and retrieved his tow truck and the two then moved the body out of the area and into a freezer, where the supposed bipedal, apelike creature has remained for about 60 days.
When asked why neither man contacted local authorities or wild animal experts after their unlikely find, Whitton said, "I didn't see any need to call."
He later likened the incident to finding the world's largest diamond, in which case he said knowing exactly what to do would be difficult.
"We didn't know who to call and who to trust," Whitton said.
Whitton, who claims he and Dyer spotted three other Bigfoot creatures walking about 50 feet from them, also stressed his concern for the species and their habitat.
"They were aware of us," he said. "They didn't try to attack us or anything."

US Airways To Sell 19M Shares
US Airways Group Inc. (LCC) plans to sell 19 million shares
at $8.50 apiece as the airline moves to raise about $155
million, taking advantage of a recent surge in its stock
price.
Merrill Lynch & Co. (MER) will serve as the book-running
manager for the offering, the proceeds of which are intended
to be used for general corporate purposes.
Underwriters have a 30-day option to purchase up to an
additional 2.85 million shares to cover overallotments.
US Airways has about 92.1 million shares outstanding.
Shares of the carrier, which are down 67% the past year,
have soared more than sixfold the past month after hitting
a low of $1.45 in July. Trading was halted at US Airways’
request a few minutes before the stock sale was disclosed
late Thursday morning to “permit an orderly distribution of
the new shares.” Prior to the halt, the stock traded hands
up 3.8% at $9.46 but was down nearly 1.4% to $8.98 following
the resumption of trading.
Gas pump malfunction sells premium for 38 cents
Gas pump malfunction sells premium for 38 cents

Aug 14, 3:36 PM (ET)
SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Gas prices have been falling - but not that much. A problem with a pump cost a San Antonio convenience store when premium gasoline accidentally sold for 38 cents a gallon. Manager Jim Duke at a Dill Food Market says that grade of gas was supposed to be selling for $3.89 a gallon.
Duke says the "pump malfunction" involving a misplaced decimal point was fixed by Wednesday afternoon.
Nobody reported the mistake, which WOAI-AM reported apparently started Tuesday afternoon.
Duke said he noticed a lot of vehicles were being filled with premium and people were paying at the pump. He went out to check Wednesday and noticed the price error.
Duke said the independent gas station lost a lot of money. Just how much is still being tallied.
