Stem Cell Fraud

Huck connection: scene where the “kiddos” are pointing out the ridiculousness of snake-oil "grown-up" salesmen and the gullibility of those not trained to know better.

“But my favorite mistake happened two years ago, when I had the opportunity to buyThe Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. Two friends in London told me there was a book they loved. I read the book and thought it was great. Then I heard they were making a movie out of it. I got the people to show us the movie to see whether we’d want to distribute it in the United States, and everything about it in my gut said, 'Do this—there’s a franchise here.' But my team said, ‘No, we should focus on bigger movies,’ and I let the committee overwhelm me. I didn’t listen to my very significant gut, and when I say significant, I mean size, geographically. And that was a big bloody mistake—an economic mistake, a company mistake.”

"Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant-in the blink of an eye...Blink reveals that great decision makers aren't those who process the most information or spend the most time deliberating, but those who have perfected the art of 'thin-slicing'-filtering...a 24/7 mental valet."

“There are two things that come very easily to me:

rooting for New York sports teams and making mistakes.”

~Harvey Weinstein
http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2011/03/06/my-favorite-mistake-harvey-weinstein.html

Who is Harvey Weinstein?

“…the Harvey Weinstein whom, despite his infamous temper and penchant for infighting, people missed, the downtown impresario, the indie king, the man who with his brother, Bob, produced some of the best movies of the last 20 years, fromPulp Fiction toShakespeare in Love toThe English Patient.”

His temper?

“The time he told The New York Observer he was ‘the [bleaping] sheriff of this [bleaping] lawless piece-of- [bleap] town.”’

“In his latest book, author Stephen King takes readers into the past with the possibility of changing events that already have taken place.

No doubt the Giants and the Cowboys would love to be along for the ride.

One bonehead play here or there over nearly a dozen games in the last four months cost each team crucial victories. Had those miscues not occurred…”
