Scammers follow money, and sadly this deserved homerun here will attract even more gold diggers with little or no knowledge about actual IT, but lots of "street smart" capabilities.
Kudos to Omar anyways, he's a living proof than even in these twittertimes real skills trumps over snake oil marketing. #omarhamoui

Seriously big ups to fellow Sequoia Capital company AdMob on this HUGE home run.
Amazing execution, perfect timing and a killer team = huge exit. #omarhamoui

Some of these are probably bigger than we are right now, but we're bigger than we were 12 months ago
Well now, you're even larger than you were.

He sounds like a smart and prudent guy.
Congratulations to him.

It gives a clear picture beyond the gossip and rumors. Real news. #scientology

"He wanted the church to have an active political stance and the church is prohibited from doing so." Davis said that taking an active political stance would have jeopardized the church’s tax exempt status.
What a load of total bullshit. If Pastor Rick Warren can come out in public support of Prop 8, then Tommy Davis can come out in public opposition of Prop 8. It has nothing to do with losing your tax exempt status (but thanks for the reminder on where your values are, $cientology) - it has EVERYTHING to do with what you stand for. And $cientology is known for lumping homosexuality with deviant behaviors, and therefore somethign the cult is against. #scientology

Sure, do all that amongst yourselves - but when it impacts other people outside your cult, be prepared to answer for it. #scientology

Two things concern me:
1) His close personal desire to have Tom Cruise's haircut from most of his films from 1983 to 1994.
2) The instant retreat at the mere mention of Xenu. Because, what may I ask, is a crazed cult with mystical numbers and levels, leaders with learning disabilities who wear large medallions of power and/or sacrifice, if it doesn't pray to an otherworldly place named similarly for a phrase coined by Robin Williams most likely on a coke bender?

was the coolest guy ever. I never met him, so perhaps he was, but from a literary standpoint, he was a hack, and not a good one. He's also deceased.
Ron D. Moore wrote of not one, but several religions more sensible and convincing than scientology: the two competing faiths in Battlestar, and the Klingons' religion.

In reality, Hubbard was holed up with a Satanist and dabbling in bigamy. He also has a file of psychological issues, and the time he spent in the navy saw no action and from what I've read, involved him trying to take over a ship in some weird way and getting disciplined for being a total nutter. #scientology

No matter what you say nobody is going to believe you anyway so you could just make shit up.
The only job requirement would be keeping a straight face. #scientology

I truly don't think Hubbard believed any of this - it was science fiction to him, science fiction successfully packaged as religion for those who wanted a belief system they could buy themselves into.
