On the wikipedia article, it says he graduated in 2001 as a "playwright with an honors thesis entitled 'Contents Under Pressure".'
And in the nndb - http://www.nndb.com/people/691/000129304/ - page it says he graduated in 2002, which one is it?
And how do we verify? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.192.69.87 (talk) 02:32, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
I would like to find a game(s) which are helpful for a young entrepreneur. Something to improve and test my business and management skills. Yeh, I know, video games are not the best way to do it, but why not to learn something useful during holiday?
I already know about Capitalism, Star Trek: Bridge Commander, Evil genius and Republic: The Revolution.
Thanks! --Ewigekrieg (talk) 13:54, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
Depending on your platform, any game with "Tycoon" in the title is worth looking at... For the iPhone I play Airline Tycoon, Airplane Tycoon, Cruise Tycoon, Hotel Tycoon, to name but a few... None of them will be amazingly accurate, but all contain multiple layers that give you a small insight into management practise and what sort of things you have to consider... Airline Tycoon for example you have to on a daily basis search for flight orders; hire and fire staff; balance wage budgets; issue, buy and sell shares on the stock market; indulge in corporate takeovers of other airlines; establish passenger and trade routes; cope with rival sabotage; purchase and repair planes etc etc... It is graphically fairly cartoony with comic elements to balance out the managment stuff, but gives you a little idea about how much goes into starting, growing and running a business... For a phone app it's quite intensive! It is also available for pc but given that you are going on holiday I assume your pc isn't! In terms of depth of detail the recent Football Manager is ridiculously heavy in terms of how much involvement in the game is required if you want to be successful - it's a little tecky even for me! However the phone version is much too simplified to be of benefit so that is better off on a pc - if you are taking a decent power laptop with you though that might be worth considering... gazhiley 16:42, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

I heard a song in Flight (2012 film) trailer, and one of its song sounded like Mick Jagger sing it. Can anybody name the song sung by him in the trailer of the said movie? I can't seems to catch any lyrics to lookup myself. Thanks in advance. --G(x) (talk) 16:52, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
