Yesterday, Google (GOOG) announced that it had hired a new CFO, 10 months after George Reyes announced his plans to retire. As a result, most of the coverage, including this post from the LA Times’ technology blog, focused on how long it took Google to find Bell Canada executive Patrick Pichette. We’ll ignore for the time being that Canadian accounting rules are somewhat different from GAAP. Still, there have to be quite a few American CFOs who are a bit jealous of Pichette this morning.

The Denver Post and the Rocky Mountain News both reported about Houston Astros pitcher Shawn Chacon's indefinite suspension after allegedly seizing general manager Ed Wade by the neck and hurling him to the ground like a resin bag, although with few details or mentions of his Colorado connections. In its June 26 edition, the Post briefed the incident, which sounds like a literal throwback to the 1997 moment when basketball star Latrell Sprewell choked the breath out of coach P.J.

In the example above, the text reads: “I haven’t done my timesheets in 3 weeks.” The adfreak posts then goes on to say that according to an agencPointing and Shooting (II)

After bold claims that employers would be forced to provide training to raise the UK’s skills base, after the Accounting for People Task Force (2003), the Leitch Review (2006), after the effort put into the ‘Train to Gain’ scheme (2007 onwards), and this April’s setting up of the UK Commission for Employment and Skills, what do we have?
