Watching the camera feed of the launch around the 5 minute mark all I could think was: if the rocket turned around now, it could probably land in New York in another 5 minutes

If you are a tech/software company you should definitely consider taking on Waterloo co-ops. There is a lot of competition between the students to get the best jobs. This results in students that go above and beyond in their work to distinguish themselves for the next round of interviews for their next co-op job. On top of that, having this kind of ambition on your team can rub off on the rest of the team boost the teams productivity.
Re:BlackBerry to cut up to 40 percent of employees

This is a good thing for Blackberry. The previous CEO's were too laid back, and this laid back attitude trickled down the ladder. A lot of long time employees still have this attitude, and are being let go to allow for new, ambitious people to be hired. Or so I've heard.
Re:Godaddy caves to UK Porn hysteria

Most governments already control alcohol and tobacco sales "to protect the children". It seems like the UK government thinks they can make the argument that pornography falls in the same category. TV, movies, and YouTube already restrict pornographic content as well, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of strong arguments against that.
