Rem Koolhaas - Starchitect
Newsweek did a piece recently on Dutch-born architect Rem Koolhaas. His most recent project was the Beijing CCTV tower from which China will broadcast the Olympic Games.

Profile: Bog Iger of Disney
Also part of the Fortune 500 issue was a short profile on Bob Iger's day-to-day as CEO of Disney. Actually saw him in person at the ESPN upfront in NYC last year. Tall man. Apparently he knows what he's doing.

Profile: Muhtar Kent of Coca-Cola
As part of Fortune's recent top 500 issue, they did a few small articles on some top brands. Love this stuff. First up is Muhtar Kent, CEO of Coca-Cola.

Shipping Cars Overseas
I rarely read the NYTimes Auto section for more than 3 seconds on a Saturday morning. It's mostly car reviews and lots of ads. Every now and then I come across something interesting.
Case in point a few weeks ago with this article about how they transport cars overseas from where they're built to where they need to be sold. As a fan of behind the scenes (anything) and especially logistics and transport, this was pretty freakin cool.

Profile: Samwer Brother - Cloning the Web
BusinessWeek had an interesting article on the German-born Samwer brothers who are essentially mimicking well-known websites (including design, functionality, etc.) and recreating them at home and abroad.
