Unemployment

Unemployment occurs when a person is available to work and currently seeking work, but the person is without work. The prevalence of unemployment is usually measured using the unemployment rate, which is defined as the percentage of those in the labor force who are unemployed. The unemployment rate is also used in economic studies and economic indexes such as the United States' Conference Board's Index of Leading Indicators as a measure of the state of the macroeconomics.

There are a variety of different causes of unemployment, and disagreement on which causes are most important. Different schools of economic thought suggest different policies to address unemployment. Monetarists for example, believe that controlling inflation to facilitate growth and investment is more important, and will lead to increased employment in the long run. Keynesians on the other hand emphasize the smoothing out of business cycles by manipulating aggregate demand. There is also disagreement on how exactly to measure unemployment. Different countries experience different levels of unemployment; the USA currently experiences lower unemployment levels than the European Union, and it also changes over time (e.g. the Great depression) throughout economic cycles.

Vacancy


A distraught couple, David(Luke Wilson) and Amy Fox(Kate Beckinsale) took a wrong turn when they decided to check into an isolated motel in the middle of nowhere supervised by the hotel's manager by the name of Mason(Frank Whaley).

While in their room, a bored David takes a peek of video tapes located on top of the television. As he watches the tapes he realizes it's a snuff film,taken in the same room where they are staying at. The couple are alarmed and David runs into a payphone booth only to be crashed by their own car. David escapes and runs back into the room. The couple decide to stay at the room when suddenly they noticed a truck pulling in. They try to warn the truck's driver only to find out that he's the buyer of the snuff films they are making and is also one of the killers.

David and Amy then run into a tunnel that they discovered. Two killers chase them inside the tunnel but they miss them. David and Amy find themselves inside the manager's lair where they find video monitors. He's watching the whole motel! Amy tries to make a call to 911 but was interrupted. The couple lurks back in the tunnel,making it into a storage room. Meanwhile the police unit from 911 arrives and David and Amy run to him. They get inside the car but it won't start and the killers kill the police as the couple runs into a motel room. David hides Amy inside the ceiling as he ventures out. The killers catch David and stab him and he ends up lying at the doorway, unconscious. When morning comes, Amy finally comes down from the ceiling and runs into their car. A killer breaks into the car from the roof as Amy drives away and another killer gets pinned into the grill of the car. The car crashes into a motel room killing both of the killers. Amy runs into the reception area where she is attacked by Mason who is now insane. As they fight, Amy comes crashing down the floor where she picks up a gun. She shoots Mason three times killing him. Amy makes another call to 911 and caresses David, who is now concious and alive.

Steve Jobs


Steven Paul Jobs (born February 24, 1955) is the American co-founder, Chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc. and the former CEO of Pixar Animation Studios.

In the late 1970s, Jobs, with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, created one of the first commercially successful personal computers. In the early 1980s, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of the mouse-driven graphical user interface. After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985, Jobs resigned from Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher education and business markets. NeXT's subsequent 1997 buyout by Apple Computer Inc. brought Jobs back to the company he co-founded, and he has served as its CEO since then. Steve Jobs was listed as Fortune Magazine's Most Powerful Businessman of 2007.

In 1986, he acquired the computer graphics division of Lucasfilm Ltd which was spun off as Pixar Animation Studios. He remained CEO and majority shareholder until its acquisition by the Walt Disney Company in 2006. Jobs is currently the Walt Disney Company's largest individual shareholder and a member of its Board of Directors. He is considered a leading figure in both the computer and entertainment industries.

Jobs' history in business has contributed greatly to the myths of the idiosyncratic, individualistic Silicon Valley entrepreneur, emphasizing the importance of design and understanding the crucial role aesthetics play in public appeal. His work driving forward the development of products that are both functional and elegant has earned him a devoted following.
