12/24   Finally, an attempt at necessary theatre.  Why can't the SF theatre
        community do stuff like this:
        http://csua.org/u/739
        \_ Too creative and no one in the US has the gumption to do it.
           \_ Um, maybe you can clarify for me because I'm not quite clear
              on how this is either creative or ballsy.
              \_ If you tried something like this in the US, your theatre
                 would get firebobmed.
                 would get firebombed.
                 \_ oh please, no one would give a shit, really.  get over
                    your "i hate america" thing and join reality.  americans
                    are more than used to the 'arts community' being stupid
                    and tasteless in an effort to get noticed.
                    \_ why do you put arts community in quotes?  Do you
                       not believe that it actually involves arts?  Or do
                       you not think it's an actual community?
                       \_ I always put it in quotes whenever anyone refers to
                          the "xyz community".  It implies unity and a measure
                          of conformity that doesn't exist.
                       \_ You sound like a wise man.  Take heed of God's wisdom:
                          "In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but
                          the lips of the wise shall preserve them."
                          Proverbs 14:3
                    \_ You've never left the state, have you?  What did you
                       do come straight from Temple in Moscow to here?  Go
                       back to russia, jew.
                       \_ You sound like a wise man.  Take heed of God's
                          wisdom:  "In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of
                          pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve
                          them."  Proverbs 14:3
                          \_ I love the bible quotes.  You just pirate the
                             bible software thing off usenet?
        \_ Because the SF theater community isn't completely f*cked up.

           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I

7/25    Is there a polite way to tell a recruiter "too busy at the moment
        but keep me in mind for future stuff."  Or  "not in that field at
        this exact moment but am switching positions over the next few
        months for your role, keep me in mind" ?  Thx.
        \_ You know what, recruiters have thick skins.  You won't hurt
           their feelings.  Go ahead, try, you can't possibly get them down.

Help Welcome, Guest 10 Personalize News Home Page - 11 Sign In Yahoo! NEW YORK (Reuters) - Software company Computer Associates International Inc. The restatement is not expected to affect fiscal 2004 results, or results of 2002 to 2003, CA said in a statement. The scope of the restatement was not as large as expected, said analysts. Computer Associates is trying to limit the damage to its reputation and business from the probe, which has dogged the company for two years. Four former employees, including its former chief financial officer, have pleaded guilty to criminal charges. The Islandia, New York-based company also said it asked global sales head Stephen Richards to resign. Richards, a 16-year veteran at CA, joins at least 14 senior executives who have left in recent months as a criminal probe into the company heated up. Before VU Games, Cron ran online gaming sites Flipside and Uproar. Prior to that, he spent 20 years at CMP Media, a trade publisher, rising to the role of president of publishing. NEW COO NAMED Computer Associates also named as chief operating officer its Chief Financial Officer Jeff Clarke, who joined the company on April 1, months after leaving Hewlett-Packard Co. Clarke said Greg Corgan, a 24-year veteran at International Business Machines Corp. Corgan joined CA in 2003 as senior vice president for North American sales. Government documents said CA's former CFO, Ira Zar, conspired with two executives, identified in its document as "Executive 1" and "Executive 2," backdated contracts, and engaged in so-called "35-day month" practices. People close to the matter said those two executives were Richards and Kumar. Board member Walter Schuetze, who was leading the internal probe, said the audit committee has found that CA had a practice of prematurely recognizing revenue on software license agreements for several years prior to adoption of its New Business Model in October 2000.
