Forbes published an article called "Five Leadership Lessons From James T. Kirk" that I found interesting and fun. Here is the link.

Article excerpt:

In his many years of service to the Federation, James Kirk embodied several leadership lessons that we can use in our own lives. We need to keep exploring and learning. We need to ensure that we encourage creativity and innovation by listening to the advice of people with vastly different opinions. We need to occasionally get down in the trenches with the members of our teams so we understand their needs and earn their trust and loyalty. We need to understand the psychology of our competitors and also learn to radically change course when circumstances dictate.

You and me, Forbes, you and me... (the title of this article reminds me of a poster I had on my wall as a teenager, "Everything I need to know in life I learned from watching Spock"... yes, I'm a giant geek that I enjoy this kind of thing, aka 'motivational messages a la Star Trek', it is true. ;))

This time featuring John and Zoe. Yay!

I had this sort of sneaky suspicion that all of these pics are really released by Paramount as a publicity stunt to generate intrigue (considering the length of time passed between this new movie and the last), and this whole 'why we'd never, is nothing sacred?!' is really an exaggerated front, but then I tell myself I'm starting to sound like my older brother, our little family conspiracy theorist (every family has one and if not, I will rent mine out to you free of charge should you truly feel that loss in your life), who the rest of the family has lovingly nicknamed 'the lone gunman'.

Thus I've now decided that how the photos came to be doesn't really matter as long as they keep coming. ;)

So anyway. New pics. Awesome. :D
