BizTart - Aug. 15 - Big House Beckons

The Nums: Marines in Iraq are testing a thirty thousand dollar hand-held device to sniff explosives called Fido. But nothing works like manâs best friendâ and yet there are only a hundred bomb-detecting canines in the ATF across the USA. Trained to sniff nineteen thousand types of explosives, dog noses are ten thousand times more sensitive than that of humans. A good time to be a German Shepard, I suppose.Big House Beckons: WorldComâs former CFO Scott Sullivan got just five instead of twe...

BizTart - Aug. 12 - Brains Crack Grains

The Nums: What is it about Skype that almost made News Corp pony up three billion dollars? Theyâre only toppling traditional telephony.

Why type when you can Skype, indeed?Brains Crack Grains: Savvy scientists have completed a genetic map of the rice plant. World population is expected to jump 50 percent, to 9 billion, by the middle of this century, especially in A...

BizTart - Aug. 10 - Vacation Spot

The Nums: Oil prices are sky high, sureânow tapping on the door of sixty-five bucks a barrel. But adjusting for inflation, the black goo cost about the same in 1990, and a lot moreâninety dollars adjustedâ right after US hostages were taken in late 1979 in Iran. âTis too soon to panic.Vacation Spot: Okay Branson fansâ you know who you are. In the lush hills of the Ozarks, the Missouri theme city is going upscale. Some seven million visitors come yearly for live shows in 45 theatres where ...

BizTart - Aug. 8 - Water Sale

The Nums: Web search engine Baidu.com, kind of like the Google in China, went public and more than quadrupled to 122 bucks on NASDAQ. The name was inspired by a 900-year-old love poem. Google owns a sliver of the five year old company, just 2.6%.Water Sale: Starbucks now sells H 2 Oh! They bought Ethos Water, and will donate a nickel for every dollar-eighty bottle sold to fund drinking water projects in poor countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Starbucks does almost six billion a ...

BizTart - Aug. 4 - Time Settles

The Nums: The Bush admin is bringing back the 30-year Treasury bond, a move that would help finance the growing national debt and appeal to your âplay it safeâ investor. Wall Street has been begging for its return; when Treasury Secretary Snow visited a Chicago exchange, traders greeted him with chants of "30, 30, 30."Time Settles: Time Warner reached a settlement with angry shareholders who sued the media company after its merger with AOL. The world's largest media company set aside $3 bil...

BizTart - Aug. 2 - Millionaire Buys Town

The Nums: The economy continues to make more stuff, but workers profit not. Businesses are expanding but salary growth has been anemicâjust 2.4 percent in the year that ended in June. Worse, benefits growth is almost nonexistent-- many employers have cut their pension contributions and shifted more health insurance expenses to their downtrodden employees.Millionaire Buys Town: A Virginian millionaire has splurged by buyingâwell, by buying a whole entire town. He paid five point seven millio...

BizTart - Aug.1 - Now Q

The Nums: Trump is not happy over a new Chicago number-- developer Christopher Carley is trying to build the tallest building in the nation. The 115-story tower would measure two thousand feet with theobligatory spireâtaller than the Sears tower at seventeen hundred feet, and vaulting above Trumpâs new Chicago skyscraper at a puny fourteen hundred feet. The new five hundred million dollar building will distinctively twist into the heavens, with each floor rotating slightly more than 2 degrees...

BizTart - July 28 - Candy Drugs

The Nums: Yes, yes we know e-tailing is bubbling and popping! Amazon revenue is up 26% to $1.75 billion. Net income was down, but only because of a wiggy income-tax expense. The books-and-more online seller has strong sales by independent merchants who sell through Amazon's vast site.Candy Drugs: Incredibly, candy maker Mars is talking with large pharmaceutical companies about creating a line of cocoa-based prescription drugs that could help treat diabetes, some forms of dementia and other ...

The Nums: Netflixâs profit nearly doubled in the latest quarter, despite increased competition from leviathan Blockbuster. The pioneering online DVD-rental company ended June with 3.2 million subscribers, a fifty-three percent increase from a year ago. In May, Wal-Mart sadly gave up on its online movie-rental business and turned over its subscribers to Netflix.Union Schism: The embattled, embittered union movement sank further, as The Teamsters and the Service Employees International unions b...
