Entitled "1944," it was shot entirely in black and white and depicts Apple and IBM as enemies in war, World War II to be specific.

In a clip in the middle of the video, Jobs appears behind a desk (presumably at the White House) calling a general.

"Your battle will be long, your battle will be hard, but it will be won. I am sure your victory will be great. Insanely great," Jobs advises the head of the Macintosh camp on the telephone. A clip is posted above; the full nine minute clip is posted on YouTube. According to Network World, Apple spent $50,000 to make the video.

quicklist: 3title: 'I Can't Afford a Psychiatrist, But I Can Afford This.'text: Have you ever been angry or stressed out enough to smash something to bits?

Instead of becoming the Incredible Hulk and destroying your own home, a Dallas-based company offers the "Anger Room" as a place where paying customers can throw, beat or shatter everything around them in a controlled environment.

The Anger Room builds mock kitchens, living rooms and replicas of actual workplaces, and fills them with big-screen TVs, VCRs, fax machines, desks, potted plants -- the list is endless. Customers then pay money to destroy them.

Hugo, a 24-year-old retail salesman from Dallas who asked that his last name not be used, paid $45 for 15 minutes inside the Anger Room and said it was worth every penny.

"I can't afford a psychiatrist, but I can afford this," he said, as he crushed a large TV with a baseball bat.

All six generations got together for Mollie Wood's 111th birthday in April. Wood, who was still sharp until age 109, is less so now, according to family members.

quicklist: 6title: 'There Were Many Errors, Sloppiness and Bad Judgment.'text: JP Morgan Chase & Co. is rocking the financial markets with the disclosure that its in-house trading operating lost $2 billion in the past six weeks, raising new questions about whether the big banks that caused the financial meltdown have sufficiently changed their ways.

Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon said the trading loss was an "egregious" failure in a unit managing risks, but he added in a call with analysts after the markets closed Thursday that just because the bank did something "stupid" that doesn't mean other firms are having such trouble.

"There were many errors, sloppiness and bad judgment," Dimon said. "These were grievous mistakes, they were self-inflicted."
