Did you see The Apprentice this week? The challenge was to make a greeting cards for a new event, and one of the teams decided to make a greeting card teaching the lessons of how to be environmentally friendly.What, like a greeting cards that says, "Stop buying these cards" written on the front?An eco-friendly thing that's disposable and made from trees makes about as much sense as a 'stop smoking' badge being sponsored by Amy Winehouse.They were good to be thinking of saving the planet, but way off the mark with the actual idea.One idea that makes so much more sense is a website set up so that you can find a partner to car share with. It's odd that we all drive around in cars with three of the four seats not being used.At rideshare.com you can find people to car pool with. That will sa
I know that I blogged about The Apprentice only very recently, but today I'm going to do so again – after all, it's not often that you see a debate over the positioning of an apostrophe on prime-time television.For those who had the misfortune not to see yesterday's episode, the teams' task was to design greetings cards based around a new 'special occasion' of their choice. One of the teams decided to designate February 13 as a national day for single people, but had trouble deciding on the correct punctuation to use (see poll on the right).At one point during the three or four hours of apostrophe-related debate (which, fortunately, was edited down for the benefit of viewers), team leader Michael Sophocles even attempted to phone the editor of national paper the Telegraph to ask his opin
One of the funnier episodes of the Apprentice this week.The contestants were summoned to Hackney Town Hall to be told their task was to market greetings cards.Kevin Shaw was told to lead Renaissance, while Michael Sophocles was told to lead Alpha.Kevin told us how rich his life has been "By the age of 23, I had my second house...Now I want a Ferrari."Claire Young said Kevin suffered from "short man syndrome" and that the animal he was most like was a pitbull.His team choose an environment theme, while Alpha choose the idea of a singles' day.If the position of the apostrophe in that sentence is worrying you, it vexed Michael, who spent three hours ringing round institutions such as the British Library and the Daily Telegraph to find out, in an arrogant manner.The team also had to find model

The books in this trilogy are #1 “Split Infinity”, #2 The Blue Adept and the final “Juxtaposition. Piers Anthony is a mystery to me.

Or maybe he meant "trained as a barrister but not practising as one..."Alan Sugar, silver fox***A couple of additions to our blogroll, both worth checking out: Copy-Editing Corner and Headup: the blog.

Marilu Henner was the leader for Empressario while Frank Lombardi led team Hydra. Note that both Marilu and Frank have strong backgrounds in theater. Empressario’s Performance: Marilu pulled out all of the stops for this task. She contacted booking agents to find out which productions sell better. She and the rest of the team contact their high net worth friends to purchase tickets at inordinately high prices. Overall, the team worked well and looked poised to easily glide to their first win. Hydra’s Performance: In contrast, the men had several interpersonal and other challenges. Piers Morg

On January 3, 2008, (9pm/8pm central) Donald Trump will return to New York City with “The Celebrity Apprentice,” a new show featuring an all-star lineup of candidates—like Adkins.
What’s really cool about the show is that rather than vying for a job with Donald Trump, the contestants will be working towards a greater goal — raising over a million dollars for their various charities throughout the season.
The final winner will have the opportunity to donate a $250,000 bonus check to their designated charity. Check out Trace Adkins talking about the competition:

Britney Spears’ prayers have been answered.Well, not really. Giant bags of pork rinds don’t just fall out of the sky, you know.But Donald Trump himself has offered to hire her and resurrect her career. Along with other train wrecks.Armed with the searing insight that she’s a “[bleeping] mess,” Trump tells the New York Post’s Page Six that he’s negotiating with Britney about appearing on his new Celebrity Apprentice and that he’s also “thinking about” having Paris Hilton on the show.However, says Lord Combover, “I don’t know if we’re going to do it.”StackedYeah, there’s no guarantee you’re going to see this at any point. There’s only so much Paris Hilton pussy you can plaster across prime time television, after all.As for Brit and Paris’ comrade-in-wreckitude, Lindsay Lohan, the Donald says he’s going to contact her this week about the show.
