Why did Tony Snow take the job?
461479
For Snow it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.  He gets to serve in a high position in the White House.  How many other people get to say that?  Look at George Stephanopoulis and his career after taking the gig for the Clinton administartion.

at least Tony and his crew are more honest than Bush and his mob.  Tony knows he's a killer.. that's a step above Bush who actually thinks he's a 'Christian' also, Tony sees a shrink.  Bush won't admit to EVER making a single mistake.\nWhen Tony's guy's screw up, they're punished or OUT.. not with Bush.. he PROMOTES them.

That is a joke, though I am not surprised. Charlton fans have been bombarding talk shows (Well on Talksport at least) asking for his dismissal. These are the same Charlton fans who were asking for Curbishley to go at the end of last season.\n\nIf I was sacked a few months into my job while I was getting "bedded in" I would be very unhappy and feel I hadn't been given a chance.\n\nI agree with the writer above who says he will end up back at Palace, Jordan was first out to speak up for him...now has Peter Taylor been given a fair crack of the whip?...

Here in Washington it seems like any time it spits snow they delay or cancel school.\n\n  in reality it has nothing to do with the amount of snow it has to do with trying to get the kid to school safely. As former safety director for a local school district it was ultimately my call and if there was any chance that the weather would signify that it could jeopardize the safety of the kids I would either delay or cancel.\n\n it had nothing to do with the staff they were still required to report to work as with any other job unless it got really bad

well i have read from one website that he hired a PR agency in UK to promote his website. Reportedly he spent several thousands pounds to bring the awareness to his website. I guess since as a result of this promotion traffic started growing advertisers became interested in putting their ads.

i am not sure why he quit but i think but must have been some pressure from upper management. in my opinion i think he did a wonderful job leading argentina and they were obviously the better team in the semifinal but did not win due to penalty kicks. i think the coach should have stuck around and gave it another try

I love Tony's books, Audiobooks, videos, etc...  He is very motivating.  HOWEVER, like everyone else in that business, he wants/needs to make a profit.  He's not a church, he's a business... always keep that in mind.  We'll talk about it later.\nRead his Personal Power book, it's great, if you can read a book that thick (I don't have the time or energy to finish a book that thick anymore these days.) (I'll talk about Motivation later).  I've read both nearly ten years ago.  It was difficult to make the time.  I probably read it twice because I would go back and re-read and re-learn some of the chapters.\nThere is a TON of great info in that book.  And more great stuff in his Unleash the Power book.  Of course some of it is fluff and debateable.\nAs long as you have the motivation to sit and read it cover to cover, I think you will find a lot of usefull info inside.  Some of it you already know and use, you just don't realize it.\n90% of us don't have the motivation to sit, read and absorb that information.  We would rather watch a movie.  \nIf I told you the secrets of the world were in that book, would you read it?  Cover to cover?  No. \nI've given those books to people I cared for and people who could truly gain from the knowledge in those books.  Did they read it?  No.  \nOne of the things Tony talks about, is the reason he is so successfull.  Putting effort into something is the leaverage you need to see it through.  If he charges $100 to coach someone through a problem, Will that person follow that $100 worth of advice?  No...  \nIf a person spends $10,000 on his advice, is that person committed to making a change?  Probably yes...\nI no longer give out those books to people.  The people I give those books to have no drive to read them.    \nNow back to the business side of Tony.  I wish he was still independent and didn't create all his corporations.  He now has a large population of employees/stock holders to support.  They want to see a profit.  If you go to them, they will want to sell you something and something else, and something else, etc...  I no longer buy direct.  There is plenty of his stuff on eBay, used book stores, garage sales.  It has excellent prices, HOWEVER, by getting his books, tapes and videos at a discount, you now decrease the "Leverage" you will need, the incentive you will need to take the time, sit down, and read, learn and make that change in your life.  Remember the guy that spent $10,000 on coaching.  I bet he listened to his every word, took notes, and made a change in his life.  Now the guy who got the book for $4, do you think he read it?  Cover to cover?  No.\nDon't be that guy or girl who doesn't have any motivation to see it through.  I have seen it through and I continue on the journey.  He doesn't teach you everything.  The meaning of life is not in his books, but some really good info to help you through life is in there, only if you have the determination to read a book.  Do you?

Pip is guilty and ashamed, as one can see from this quote.  Don't forget to provide the link if you quote it!\n\n"Pip gives Joe the final rejection when he refuses to allow Joe to accompany him to the coach for London on the day that he leaves: "I had told Joe that I wished to walk away all alone. I am afraid--sore afraid--that this purpose originated in my sense of the contrast there would be between me and Joe, if we went to the coach together" (159; ch.19). Clearly, Pip wants to leave his provincial life behind him and step into the world of property and society; he does this by literally leaving his town and ultimately rejecting Joe, who represents Pip's roots."

He did very little at Grimsby but vastly improved the situation at Scunthorpe. He'd do a good job at a lower league club but may find things tough in the Championship. He's inherited a team that is more than capable of surviving in the second tier. It's a hard division to get out of promotion wise. If the Wednesday fans want consolidation then he'll be up to the task. The play-offs are way beyond Wednesday this season and Brian Laws must have to admit this. It would take a very special manager to turn this team into a play-off contender next season. Brian Laws is not this special manager.

Of course. Ben was Alan's protege selected and endorsed to replace him. It is not uncommon for people in his position to consult the previous holder of that position.

Because labels are only used for "tar babies", right Tony Snow.

Well, we already established that Tony gets to be a liberatarian.  I think Cap'n Crunch wants to spend money making war, so I want to vote for Lucky.  Is he still running or did he get axed by that vicious rumor about the blue diamonds?

These decisions aren’t made overnight and the candidates for such jobs are notified well in advance of the decision.  There have been a few questions of late about the reason FOX News has been leaning away from unbiased reporting and more to the right.  The decision to appoint Mr. Snow answers those questions.  Mr. Snow has been promoting himself for the job for several weeks.  KLIF talk radio is Dallas’ right wing propaganda station (every major city has one) and if you go to the FOX 4 web-site, you’ll see the KLIF banner on the lower part of the page.\n\nI watch all four local news stations and, although because of where I live most news slants toward the right, FOX 4 is the least reliable.  That’s why I also read the NY Times, Washington Post, LA Times, and USA Today.  The BBC is also a good place to get reliable news.  MSNBC and NBC are also right wing biased.  This has to do with Jack Welch’s (former MSNBC CEO) and Bill Gates' affiliation with the Republican Party.\n\nUsing George Stephenopolous as an example is irrelevant.  Mr. Stephenopolous does not control the content of the news and is simply perusing a career in the private sector as an extremely qualified political analyst after his tenor in politics verses Mr. Snow who was very much in charge of content and biding for a career in politics.\n\nTaking all these facts into consideration, when a report is unfavorable to the right, I take those stories at face value as being accurate.
