Olympic swimmer Eric Shanteau is off to Beijing with a diagnosis of testicular cancer, and will delay his surgery until after he competes there, the 24-year-old Georgia native tells the Associated Press.

His physicians approved his being in the Olympic trials in Omaha, where he made the team in the 200-meter breaststroke, having finished second ahead of former world-record holder (and presumptive winner) Brendan Hansen.

“Talk about a life-changing experience,” said Shanteau, whose initial reaction to his diagnosis was disbelief. “That’s as big a one as you can have, I think. You’re changed for the rest of your life. The few people I’ve talked to who’ve gone through this – and they’re all much, much older than I am – say I’ll know that even more in 10 years.”

He will be closely monitored this month and will drop out of the Olympics should his cancer appear to be spreading.

“If I didn’t make the team, the decision would have been easy: Go home and have the surgery,” Shanteau said. “I made the team, so I had a hard decision. But, by no means am I being stupid about this.”

Nike has released a model shoe very similar to the one seen in the movie Back to the Future II. The shoes do not have the vacume-fit your feet function. The does are very light weight and cool lookiing.

With all this blab about young entrepeneurs like ourselves *ahem*… we have come to the conclusion that facebook is loosing money… PLUS NOT!

Kara Swisher’s elves must have Mark Zuckerberg’s number. Because she is reporting details from an all-hands meeting the Facebook founder held on Thursday for employees that had an open dial-in number, in which he revealed the following financial metrics for the still-private company:

2007 Revenues: $150 million

2008 Revenues: $300 to $350 million (projected)

2007 Headcount: 450

2008 Headcount: 1,000 (projected)

2008 Capital Expenditures: $200 million (i.e., servers)

2008 EBITDA: $50 million

2008 Cash Flow (EBITDA - CapEx): negative 150 million.

If he wants to go public in 2009, he is going to have to start making some money before then.
