A good way to start?

I would appreciate a quick answer and some second opinions about this: i'm interested in learning programming (decided to start with Java) and after a long search I've come to the conclusion that this is how I should start (note: completely beginner):

1. http://see.stanford.edu/see/courseinfo.aspx?coll=824a47e1-135f-4508-a5aa-866adcae1111 for an overview
2. Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition
3. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/
4. Thinking In Java 4th edition

Am I going the right way or just being a stupid dick? Also what worries me is the outdated data especially in the last one (2006). Any advice, guys?

Do what >>8 says. Instead of Common Lisp, you can also learn Scheme or Clojure. Solve the problems on 4clojure.com. After you're done it's time for Haskell.

Do NOT waste your time with Java. Even scrubbing toilets is better than damaging your brain with that shit.
