NKY students win scholarships to Gateway through new UpTech program
Tuesday, May 14, 2013
Three Northern Kentucky high school students won scholarships to
Gateway Community and Technical College
through an innovative new
program that challenges students to apply advanced manufacture learning through competition.
Eleven Kenton County high schoolers competed for the scholarship earlier this month. Competitors were sophomores and juniors who have been taking college courses while still in high school. The scholarship pays for up to 24 credit hours at Gateway.
UpTech is a new business informatics incubator launched by several Northern Kentucky institutions, including
Northern Kentucky University
Vision 2015
. The intense, six-month accelerator program includes $100,000 in funding.
This latest scholarship program reaches into the advanced manufacturing area, which is a strong source of Northern Kentucky job growth. Called mUpTech, the program seeks out area talent at the high school level, and encourages learning through competition and college aid.
"mUpTech, was born out of our region's need to stimulate interest and innovation in our manufacturing industry," says UpTech co-founder Casey Barach. "Over the last 12 years, over 300 companies have used the e-zone, and only three were in the manufacturing industry."
This year, all competing students came from the newly developed
Kenton County School District's Academy of Innovation and Technology
. The high school houses six academics that focus on real world learning, including biomedical sciences, engineering and high performance production technology.
As part of their learning, academy students must complete and present a project related to their learning. Divided into two-person teams (one student competed alone), students from the high performance production technology academy presented their projects and participated in the mUpTech competition. It was held at the Gateway Center for Advanced Manufacturing.
Winners were juniors Matt Flanagan and Austin Ernst, who developed a speedy tractor lift, and sophomore Wendy Webster, who created a window heater.
"Their families were really floored," says Academy director Francis O'Hara. "This will be a life-changing experience for them."
mUpTech's partners include Gateway Community and Technical College, Tri-ED, ezone, Vision 2015, UpTech and Duke Energy Foundation. Plans in the next year are to expand the program into Boone and Campbell counties, and to include more of the region's advanced manufacturing business community in judging, Barach says.

HCBC opens new CoWorks space for entrepreneurs, startups
Tuesday, March 05, 2013
Hamilton County Business Center
is Cincinnati's oldest incubator, and has evolved over the decades as the economy has changed.
Startups are leaner and meaner now than ever before, and HCBC is piloting the region's latest coworking space, where small businesses can get many of the benefits of being in an incubator without the higher overhead.
had a very quiet launch late last fall. With three businesses in the space, which is located in Norwood, Executive Director Pat Longo is now getting the word out about HCBC.
"This has grown out of our affiliate program," Longo says. "There were companies that weren't yet ready to apply for the incubator but they wanted to be around it."
HCBC has recently upgraded its conference room space, which has been attractive to small companies like
that want to present themselves more professionally, says Longo.
HCBC has 45 companies that last year generated over $18 million in revenues, accessed over $8 million in capital and created nearly 50 jobs.
Renting CoWorks space on a month-to-month basis starts at $75 per month, and includes:
24-hour, 7-day-a-week access
Concierge and receptionist services
Free parking
Fax, scanner and copier services
Up to four hours per month of conference room use
A mailing address
"We talk about having an entrepreneurial ecosystem, but I like to think of (HCBC) as a coral reef," Longo says. "We have a lot of life, people can grow, there is lots of nourishment and places to go and hide if you need a quiet place to work."
CoWorkers will have access to the incubator entrepreneurial atmosphere, programming and resources. Some are free, while others have a fee attached.
"They'll get the benefits of being a client," Long says. "And we hope when they are ready, they'll move into the incubator."
Currently, there is space for about 12 companies, with potential room to grow. Interested businesses can find out more on the
CoWorks website
, where interpreters can fill out an application.

Sweaty Bands kick knockoffs to the curb in Linwood
Tuesday, February 12, 2013
Donna Browning was a fitness teacher with an annoying problem: hair in her face and headbands that would not stay put. Today, she's selling her solution to that problem, dubbed "
Sweaty Bands
," to women who've embraced her company's tagline: "OMG…they don't slip!"
An endorphin addict—she's taught everything from Pilates and yoga to sculpting classes and cardio sessions—Browning loved to exercise but hated hair accessories that didn't work with the microphone she wore to teach.
Sure she could solve the problem, she borrowed a sewing machine from a friend, grabbed supplies from a craft store and churned out headband after headband until she found an adjustable, elastic band that stayed in place.
Soon, she was toting a bag full of the headbands in her gym bag and selling them to friends at the gym. After driving up to Cleveland for some training from
Ladies Who Launch
, an organization that helps women become entrepreneurs, she launched Sweaty Bands.
"I didn't want it to be a preppy ribbon-in-the-hair thing," Browning says. "I wanted it to be a kick your butt, sporty accessory." With a range of styles, including custom options, she says the company's product has become so popular that now they're noticing knockoffs popping up.
Still, Browning says, few competitors rival her team of in-house designers: "We're constantly meeting, looking at magazines, going to the mall, and checking out upcoming trends so that what we have, nobody else will have." These days, she's focusing on custom orders for clients as large as John Freida, Pantene and Skinny Girl—or as small as a single headband.

Vegan Roots translates Cincinnati�s culinary favs
Tuesday, February 12, 2013
The hardest thing about being vegan, according to Caitlin Bertsch, isn't figuring out where and what to eat; it's other people's reactions. "They're worried I'm judging them, or think they don't eat correctly."
Bertsch, the founder of
Vegan Roots
, launched her business with the creation of a vegan goetta that has garnered a lot of incredulous responses, but, Bertsch says, is loved by vegans and omnivores alike.
"What I'm trying to do with Vegan Roots is to address that and say, 'Hey, there's a lot of good stuff out there that can be made vegan.' Just because it's vegan doesn't mean it's not tasty."
Bertsch is a Xavier University grad who studied math and sociology before earning her master's degree in anthropology. A travel addict, she's studied abroad and worked in international development overseas and in Washington, DC. When she moved back to Cincinnati and settled down in East Walnut Hills, she set out to find a job locally.
"It's hard to find international-related work in Cincinnati, so I needed to find another creative outlet," Bertsch says. She enrolled in
Springboard program
, which helped her settle on goetta as her first product. She'd developed the recipe by gathering pork-based recipes, raiding her spice cabinet for just the right combinations and testing, testing, testing. When she brought her final creation in for Springboard classmates to taste, the vote was nearly unanimous: this could be the foundation of her business.
Bertsch hopes to expand her footprint, and is anxiously searching for rentable, commercial kitchen space that would allow her to crank out larger batches. She currently supplies vegan goetta to the
Brew House
in Walnut Hills, which offers it as a salad topping, and
Bella Vino
in West Chester, which plans to add mini vegan goetta sandwiches to its menu.

Red Brick builds foundation for best college fit
Tuesday, February 05, 2013
"Helicopter parents are very apparent—no pun intended," says Jessica Donovan*, founder of
Red Brick College Consulting
. "A lot of parents tend to be that way, but there are some on the other end of the spectrum as well. I get both."
According to Donovan, anxious parents often relax once they see a plan and a timeline for their child's college planning. Once everyone is comfortable, she turns her attention to each student's strengths and weaknesses, and helps suss out which college might truly be the best fit.
"A big part of consulting is getting the parents and the students to talk to each other," she says. "Mom and Dad have an expectation and Sally or Joe has a different expectation." In these cases, Donovan says she'll help students identify their strengths and goals, then give them data to discuss with parents.
A former assistant dean at the
University of Cincinnati
, Donovan launched Red Brick last October to advise students and parents during their college search. Donovan, who is "part student advocate, part counselor, part admissions guru," meets first with students and their parents to identify broad goals and gather ideas. After that, she keeps in touch with students in person or via Skype— and both parties leave each meeting with homework.
For Donovan, having an academic background sets her apart from her peers, many of whom have guidance counseling or psychology backgrounds. Her services range from evaluating academic records and course schedules to recommending co-curriculars and test-prep services. She offers services bundled as a package deal, a la carte or hourly, including timelines, preparation for college visits, essay critiques and even detailed lists of scholarships by institution.
Still, when it comes to completing applications, Donovan says she expects students to take the lead. "I don't write the essays, fill out the FAFSA or fill out the application. The student owns that process."
Donovan says students as young as middle school age can start taking the steps toward finding the right college for them. Although she says a student's sophomore year is an ideal starting point for her services, she'll work with students, including transfer students, at any point in the process.
Donovan is currently accepting students for her fall caseload and advises families to begin their work with her during the summer months.

Body Boutique fitness classes pump up Hyde Park
Tuesday, February 05, 2013
Candice Peters doesn't reach for platitudes when asked what she wishes women knew about working out. Her goal is simple and straightforward: "That they can lift heavier!" The trainer and founder of
Hyde Park Body Boutique
has carved out a niche just a few miles north of downtown with her women-only workout facility.
Unlike the typical gym, there are no ellipticals and no treadmills; the primary services offered are various workout classes, as well as in-home personal training provided by Peters and her staff. It can be hard to identify the most popular class because they're usually booked with young professionals in the evenings and, often, new or stay-at-home moms in the mornings, but Peters says TRX and Spincinnati (think of a spinning class with light weights and pumped-up music) classes fill up quickly.
"We cater to women of all ages," Peters says, noting a concentration of young professionals ages 25-34, especially those who recently got married or plan to have kids soon. Still, she adds, "We have athletes, we have people who haven't worked out in years and we have people who are looking to lose 150 pounds."
Peters' staff comprises an office manager and five part-time trainers who help local ladies get stronger. Peters isn't a proponent of crash dieting or even protein powder in particular, and she says that she reminds all of her clients that 80 percent of their fitness is due to nutrition, not working out.
Another 80/20 rule she follows is her advice about effort levels. "In general, if you have to be doing great things 80 percent of the time, the other 20 percent of the time you can slack off. You have to give yourself a break."
She should know; Peters works an 80-hour work week, and plans to launch Over-the-Rhine Body Boutique in June. Along with her training and teaching, she's fundraising with
and planning a social media campaign to raise crowdfunding for new equipment. For a woman on the move, it's just one more way to stay active.

Inna's Harmony assuages mid-life health woes
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Although Inna Aracri describes herself as "a regular person" in her health coaching work—she is not a nutritionist or a dietician—her approach to coaching incorporates techniques that might puzzle a mainstream medical practitioner.
Ukraine-born Aracri is the proprietor of
Inna's Harmony LLC
, a health consultancy that takes a holistic approach to improving people's overall wellbeing. The bulk of Inna's Harmony clients are looking for help with common problems such as losing weight or improving energy levels, but what sets Aracri apart is her approach, which mixes nutrition, general health counseling and spirituality.
So, while Aracri might spend the bulk of her time teaching people how to eat healthy and prepare nutritional meals, she also offers crystal healing and reiki along with raw food training, recipe tips and cooking demonstrations.
"If people are open to the alternative modalities, I always offer energy healing as a part of the package," says Aracri, who offers package deals to encourage clients to try her other services. "People are more familiar with health coaches or food counselors versus energy healing. But by learning how to deal with their body—there's more to it than muscles and tissues and bones—they open new doors to learn how they can help themselves through spiritual development."
For Aracri, advising her clients means not only talking about healthy eating habits, but also teasing out the reasons they're not thriving. For some, she advises more time outdoors; for others, she discusses the importance of healthy relationships.
And while she'll work with people of almost any age, Aracri says she sees lots of people in their 40s. "They have family, career, finances, but they're not happy because they don't feel good," she says. "They neglect their bodies because they feel fine when they're younger, but when people reach their 40s, they may start not feeling good. The body can only serve so long without breaking down on the wrong fuel that you put into it."

Private-session Pilates in Mt. Washington appeals to all ages
Tuesday, January 29, 2013
Nancy Trapp has very few excuses for not getting in regular workouts. The Pilates instructor and owner of
Studio NT
works from her home, which is equipped with mats, machines and plenty of space to stretch.
Trapp grew interested in Pilates after lower back and hamstring tension left her seeking a fix. Yoga didn't work, but she found relief with classical Pilates. After six weeks, she says, "I was standing up taller. My husband didn't have to remind me not to slouch anymore."
Trapp's typical session lasts 55 minutes and she recommends clients come twice a week. She offers group mat classes to supplement individual sessions. She earned her certification from the
Pilates Method Alliance
after completing a 600-hour training program in May 2012.
Pilates (and especially classical Pilates) is different from yoga in that it focuses not just on mat exercises, but also involves a range of equipment that facilitates exercises promoting core strength, balance and stability. Some modern Pilates instructors offer mat-based classes for practical reasons, but Trapp, who often works with clients one-on-one, prefers the mental work of figuring out which exercises best fit each individual.
"I have a client who is 75 and has never exercised in her life who comes two days a week," says Trapp. "Now, she says, 'I can't miss a day because I feel great.' "
And the senior client is not alone. "I'm loving my older clientele, my 60s, 70s and older. I'm getting some more referrals for people that age. I like to teach everybody, but they can feel the difference quicker than somebody who might be doing all different types of [exercise]."
For Cincinnatians looking to stretch themselves in a new way, Studio NT may be just the place to start.

Etsy success spurs event planning business
Tuesday, January 22, 2013
Rachel Murphy grew a fan base by launching an
Etsy store
for her jewelry and décor, such as personalized wire letters, hair accessories and wedding favors while she worked full-time at a consuming nonprofit position. When she launched
Rachel Lynn Studio
, an event planning business, she decided to try to join the two customer bases.
"I don't do catering, entertainment or photography, and I don't rent out facilities," she says, but it takes her a minute to come up with that list because there are so many services she does provide.
Unlike a typical event or wedding planner, Murphy will not only meet with individuals or groups to choose a theme, set colors, coordinate vendors and be there on the big day, she also makes many of the props and decorative elements these events require. Murphy offers her services a la carte—think bouquets or centerpieces—or at a flat rate for corporate events, weddings and other happenings.
Murphy says she enjoys working with couples who don't want a cookie-cutter event. "I wish people knew that anything is possible," she says of wedding planning in particular. "People get so nervous they're not going to fit a certain mold of what they expect to see at traditional weddings."
One tip Murphy says she offers for weddings and corporate events alike is to create a schedule that keeps moving and isn't expected. Getting married at 6 p.m.? Offer a cocktail hour before the ceremony, or even some live music and dancing. "Make sure there's not time when people are just standing around waiting," she says.
To keep a wedding's timeline flowing, Murphy advises couples to take pictures before the wedding, which she says limits the pre-dinner lull. "It can also take away some of the nerves to see each other beforehand," she says.
And while she can craft invitations, bouquets and centerpieces, Murphy doesn't shy away from special requests. For example, when a lesbian couple wanted a wedding with only vendors open to their relationship, Murphy vetted each one. Whether she's designing earrings for the bride, running the show or tracking down vendors, there are few tasks this planner won't tackle.

No-show Keysocks keep feet happy in heels
Tuesday, January 22, 2013
Shelby McKee had had it with the bulky shoes and socks that cold Cincinnati winters require. Heading out to a Bengals game one crisp evening, she reached into her husband's sock drawer and nabbed a pair of dress socks. With a pair of cute flats in mind, she cut oblong holes in the tops of the socks that revealed just the tops of her feet when she slipped on her shoes.
Mike Crotty, a family friend who has been in the textile business for years, was able to source out Keysocks in China, and help McKee find the right factory. "We probably had 45 prototypes made in all, and all the factories were puzzled, wondering, 'What do you mean? A sock with a hole in it?'" McKee says with a laugh.
Several years later, with her multi-talented family and friends helping out with everything from IT to PR to sourcing a manufacturer, McKee's
—a name coined by her friends at the Bengals game—are hitting retail shelves.
The business earned an early, fortuitous bump in sales when the product was featured in
Real Simple
, a consumer magazine that offers hip ways to make life easier. Today, the product is in about a dozen retail stores, mostly small boutiques. "The reason why we didn't go straight to retail like Target or department stores yet is because no one has ever seen this product before, and if it sat on a shelf, nobody would know what it is," McKee says. "We started with the Internet and getting it out on social media."
Although the socks were designed not to show, their open-foot design has spread in popularity from women, like McKee's friends, to girls, who started asking for fun colors and patterns. Currently, Keysocks are available in black and nude hues. Brown is on its way, along with turquoise-and-gray stripes. Girls' socks in turquoise and a navy/raspberry stripe are also in the works.
Like some small businesses, McKee doesn't take returns, but she doesn't do it to save money. In fact, McKee says she encourages any unhappy users to pass along the product, figuring it will easily find a happy home: "I just want everybody to be comfortable!"

Alex Burkhart of Tixers
Tuesday, January 15, 2013
How did you start your business?
Competing in and winning
Cincinnati Startup Weekend
helped jumpstart the concept and aligned me with the right people to help get me started.
How did you come up with the idea for your business?
I'm an avid sports fan who grew up traveling to every Major League Baseball park. The idea hit me this year, when I went to three major sporting events in a 24-hour time span: a Notre Dame football game, an Indianapolis Colts game and a Cincinnati Bengals game. I also work in loyalty marketing at Macy's and wanted to tie in that concept with sports.
What resources here did you take advantage of and how did they help?
I took advantage of the rapidly growing startup community in Cincinnati. It first started with Cincinnati Startup Weekend, but it has grown through relationships established from the competition, mainly from organizers and judges of the competition. Chris Ridenour and Tim Metzner (organizers) and Tarek Kamil (judge) have been instrumental in this. Chris also organizes a tech Meetup in town called Cincinnati Web/Tech Drink Up, which brings many people in the startup scene together once a month.
Also, the events and opportunities offered through the
have been a huge help. The innovation culture and community they are creating is on the verge of exploding. In addition, I am a graduate and a current MBA student at
Xavier University
and their entrepreneurship department has been a great resource.
What inspires you?
Passion and purpose. I am currently in the corporate world, but startups and innovation really invigorate me. I want to build something that I have passion for. My current venture, Tixers, really combines my passion for sports, marketing and entrepreneurship. I want to wake up every day knowing that I was able to create something that not only creates value for my customers (sports fans), but also to those of us who work to create this.
A great book written by the CEO of Zappos,
Passion, Purpose, and Profits
, is an example of a medium that really inspired me to become an entrepreneur.
What's next for you and your company?
The next steps are finalizing the team that can really take this concept to the next level and working with those people (mentors, technical services, potential investors, etc.) in the startup community who can help me do this. I'm also continuing to build out the website and/or app, and plan to launch in the near future.

At Cinsational, corporate know-how spells sweet success
Tuesday, January 15, 2013
It sounds like a trick question. How can you be a fitness model and the owner of a successful small bakery at the same time?
Jenn Hardin does just that as the proprietor of
Cinsational Sweet Treats
. She wakes up between 3:30 and 4 a.m. to measure, mix and sample sparingly. She bakes until dawn, shipping out a fresh batch of scones and other treats to Nordstrom, her largest client, six days a week.
Because Hardin uses the same base for her muffins, she's able to taste sparingly. "I love cupcakes, and when I make them I'll eat one, but I also compete in fitness bikini pageants twice a year, so I eat very, very healthy," she says. "I go to the gym four to five times a week. I have a 4-year-old, so I have to keep up that energy!"
In fact, keeping to a strict diet is what helped news of Hardin's skill in the kitchen spread. As an IT recruiter, she'd bake late at night and take the treats into her office or to small functions. People began requesting donations for small events, and, eventually, asked her how to buy her product. "It truly started out of my own kitchen," Hardin says.
Local investors have latched on to this energetic baker, and Hardin has already turned down offers to supply Nordstrom eateries in Columbus and Pittsburgh until she has a retail space. Meanwhile, she's growing her bottom line with private events.
Hardin's IT recruiting background isn't divorced from her current success, either. The same skills she used to match job hunters with employers came into play when she won her pivotal wholesale account with Nordstrom by proving she was a match for the store's clientele.
"I use all natural, though not organic, high-end ingredients," she says. "A higher-end clientele will pay for that and appreciate it." She offered to present her product to visiting higher-ups with a personalized touch, and helped managers streamline invoices by reducing the number of vendors who supplied their café, helping sweeten the both the store's menu items and their bottom line.

Tixers hopes to score points with season ticket holders
Tuesday, January 15, 2013
It's a familiar struggle for those who lay down cash for season tickets to the Bengals or the Reds: trying to sell, donate or give away the extras when you can't make a game.
Alex Burkhart grew up in Mansfield, Ohio, rooting for Cleveland sports teams. And while falling in love with Cincinnati as a student at
may mean his love of Cincinnati sports is growing, he's mostly impressed by the city's budding startup culture.
A Macy's employee by day, Burkhart won the
Cincinnati Startup Weekend
competition last November. During the event, individuals pitch startup ideas and form makeshift teams to develop them during a single weekend. Burkhart, who longingly noted that he missed a great Xavier game to do so, grabbed attention and a few helpful connections after he pitched his idea, which is now called
Burkhart says the company will provide a new way to buy and sell tickets on an online platform. "Hypothetically, if you can't go to a Reds game, you can sell the tickets on StubHub at a significantly reduced price, give them away or let them go to waste," he says.
Tixers aims to even that exchange. Still in its early stages, the platform (likely to be web and mobile) will allow people who have tickets for sporting or other entertainment events to exchange them for points, which can later be redeemed for other tickets. In other words, no more last-minute emails or tickets gone to waste.
But before all this can happen, Burkhart hopes to connect with a partner who can complement his business acumen with technical know-how. He won the competition just weeks ago, attracting attention from startup accelerators and investors, but cautions, "It's not a working business yet."
Still, Burkhart is optimistic that Cincinnati's sustainable startup culture combined with his education, enthusiasm and upbringing—he's from a family of entrepreneurs—will soon mean a successful launch for Tixers.

Moving for Love fuels those who move for passion, not profession
Tuesday, January 08, 2013
Moving for Love
harnesses a trend that arose from the recession's rising unemployment and job dissatisfaction: people moving to follow their passions, rather than their professions. Owner Robin Sheakley, a third-generation member of the Sibcy family (her dad is Rob Sibcy, president of Sibcy Cline Realtors), created the company. She built on her own 15-year career in real estate and relocation, offering relocation assistance to people moving to follow a partner, a passion or favorite place.
"When you deal with a family business, it's fun to try to put your mark on it," Sheakley says, citing the growth of super-specialized online dating sites (think dating websites for farmers, for example). "I started thinking there are all these people dating online who may say, 'You know what, I haven't found anyone here, but I've always wanted to live in Chicago or Miami.' But what happens if they find someone?"
She created Moving for Love to answer that question. The web-based service connects people ready to move with Personal Move Assistant and provides a secure online portal where both parties can upload documents and information from service providers, such as a moving company. The company's services range from short-term rental assistance and realtor recommendations to moving estimates, cost-of-living comparisons and even personalized reminders, such as suggesting that it's time to find a local physician to manage a medical condition in the new location.
The company is separate from its parent,
Sibcy Cline
, but shares some resources. However, the marketing budget has been scant since the website launched last July, Sheakley says. "I always like to walk before I run, so we have done no paid advertising. We are strictly organically getting our message out there. It's been a slow start that we're going to kick in from the beginning of the [2013]."
Moving for Love charges a flat fee, then provides services for up to 12 months, giving passion-prompted movers a chance to compare several potential locations before making their transitions.

Ignite connects philanthropists, benefactors
Tuesday, January 08, 2013
Susan Ingmire is frank about the type of philanthropists she works with. "The vast majority would not be a good fit." As president of
Ignite Philanthropy Advisors
, a "niche player," Ingmire works with individuals and organizations who need help giving money away.
Some have inherited money and want to do a good job giving it away charitably. Others want help identifying their priorities, then mapping out a strategy that allows them to give according to certain goals, such as promoting education or supporting the arts. "It's sometimes hard for people to say no when asked to give. If you have a strategy, then you can say we give in the areas of arts, education or health care. It's how people learn to say no, or we say it for them," Ingmire says. She teaches these investors to decide what to give and to whom, and even how to research organizations that pique their interest.
The firm mainly works on a retainer basis with Cincinnati-area clients giving away at least $25,000-$50,000 a year and up, with her smallest foundation gifting about $100,000 annually. Most business comes through referrals, especially from local attorneys and accountants. They provide advice, demystify the giving process and even offer administrative support, such as preparing agendas for foundation board meetings, writing checks and processing mail.
Ingmire started in the field as a serial volunteer, working as a foundation volunteer, mentor and with arts and housing programs. She also spent a decade with Fifth Third Bank's trust department. And her idea of doing "less than I used to" means staying involved with the YWCA, Social Venture Partners Cincinnati, United Way and her church. And after spending so much time in the trenches, she embraces the joy in helping others support nonprofits. "When we can call up somebody and say, you're getting $30,000 and here's why, it's a real joy."

The Edmonton Oilers have an Oscar Klefbom update on their site. It looks like the organization is following concussion protocol very closely, which is good news but will definitely impact the IR this season and beyond. As for Klefbom, he's saying all the right things.
- Klefbom: "I felt good. We just wanted to make sure I didn't have any symptoms. I feel very good right now."
Klefbom is considered "in the mix" for NHL employment this season, but it's more likely he at least starts the season in Oklahoma City. I imagine he'll get a 'rocking chair' assignment in his NHL pre-season debut, similar to Darnell Nurse and his introduction alongside Andrew Ference last night. Klefbom says in the interview he doesn't know when he'll play, but a good bet would be this week (the Oilers have three games scheduled).
The Oilers D looks fairly set 1-5 (Smid, Petry, Ference & the Schultz boys) but there appears to be some fluidity to the 5-9 rotation because of Visa problems (Belov) and inconsistent play (Grebeshkov, Larsen). It isn't all good news for Klefbom though, as Martin Marincin and Brandon Davidson are showing well early.

The dermatologist also reinforces that when you hit 40, your skin turns dry and additional care should be taken.Â
Dr. Nipun Jain, Dermatologist at Sri Balaji Action Medical Institute explains, "During 40s, a woman's body undergoes profound changes and the skin is not exempt. But sometimes it is hard to notice the slight changes in skin even though aging occurs gradually. It is a time where dryness can exist simultaneously with acne."

Giving back to our community is a high priority for Slifer Designs, and currently we are supporting two non-profits in particular - The Gore Range Natural Science School (GRNSS) and the Bright Future Foundation (BFF). In keeping with the tradition of offering pro bono design work, we are helping design the interiors of BFF's Freedom Ranch (the safe house for domestic violence victims and their children) and GRNSS' new Buck Creek Campus (in the planning phase).
Both projects are near and dear to our hearts. Our distribution team recently took some time away from the warehouse and install schedule to mow the lawn at the BFF's Freedom Ranch and conduct general yard clean up. Marilyn Smith Heany has led a team of employees to refurnish the safehouse with everything from replacing old kitchen appliances with barely used to new carpet and furnishings. The effort is still underway to make this the most comfortable safe house in the nation.
Kim Toms is leading the effort in choosing all sustainable and eco-friendly fixed finishes for the new Buck Creek Campus. This is a dream project come true for Kim, as she is the leader of our Green Team.
In recent years, we have also provided pro bono design services for Jack's Place (formerly known as the Cancer Caring House) and the Maxine Miller Room.
Slifer Designs' founder and CEO, Beth Slifer, is on the board of Roundup River Ranch (RRR), who we are also helping with pro bono interior design services. Kim Toms is also working on this project. Beth also sits on the CU Hospital Board, the Vail Local Marketing District and the Vail Valley Partnership. Yvonne Jacobs is following in her footsteps, as she has recently been named to the BFF's board of directors.
Throughout the year, Slifer Designs is also happy to donate items from our showroom to various non-profits including the Eagle County School District, The Black Diamond Ball, Vail Mountain School's (VMS) scholarship fund, Friends of the Dance and many other worthy organizations.

Prada Luna Rossa 200ml Shower Gel
Item No.1178259005
Prada Luna Rossa Shower Gel: A shower gel that cleanses and protects the skin while providing comfort. Prada Luna Rossa, inspired by the infamous 'Luna Rossa' boat created in 1997 for the America's Cup, looks to the values of extreme sailing as a starting point for new ideas. Taking the esteemed Luna Rossa name as its own, it is a masculine scent with a reverence for the natural world and a passion for innovation. The bottle and packaging are inspired by the technological excellence and sleek, dynamic beauty of extreme sailing boats, both displaying the iconic red Prada stripe. Prada Luna Rossa is a masculine fragrance that reinterprets traditional ingredients with agility.
The backbone of the fragrance is Lavender- an unmistakable natural ingredient in perfumery- teamed with a bitter freshness of Orange essence, resulting in a fresh and invigorating scent. Aromatic Clary Sage and Spearmint Nanah Essences channel the spirit of vast open spaces and rugged, natural elements, richly nuanced and sublime. Ambroxan and Ambrette Absolute create a woody, ambery signature - the dynamic paradox of synthetic and natural ingredients which brings a warm sensuality: refined, dignified and timeless.

Last night in the ECHL, the Kalamazoo Wings lost 2-to-1 in overtime at Ft. Wayne. Meanwhile, The NHL Players' Association began to vote yesterday on whether to allow the executive board to file a disclaimer of interest. It would be the first step in dissolving the union.
All 700-plus members of the NHLPA will have the chance to vote through Thursday and would need two-thirds majority for the motion to pass. On Friday, the league announced a class action complaint in New York and Federal Court to uphold the lockout, which today enters day 93 and has seen all games through December 30th cancelled.

Additional Location Information
How to Get Here
The Liberia Airport is serviced by a variety of major airlines and is the preferred airport for anyone travelling to Playa del Coco and to Tropical Felgate's vacation villas. We are only 15 miles from the airport. Delta, Continental, American, United and other charter airlines travel to Costa Rica direct into the Liberia International Airport from the U.S. If you do choose to fly into San Jose, it is recommended to take a hopper flight into Liberia; these connector flights take approximately 45 minutes (compared to 4 hours by car) and are affordable.
Driving Directions
1. From Liberia International Airport, turn right from the airport and follow the signs toward Playa Del Coco (also known as El Coco).
2. After passing the "Do It" store (approximately 19 kilometers from the airport), you will see street signs to Playa Del Coco. Turn right here (onto Rt. 151 which may or may not be marked).
3. Continue on Rt. 151 toward Playa Del Coco another 6 kilometers until reaching downtown El Coco (but before the beach). Turn right on Chorrera, on the corner between The Lizard and Zouk Santana night clubs.
4. Continue on Chorrera toward El Pueblito Shopping Center (also watch for signs for La Dolce Vita restaurant located in El Pueblito). Tropical Felgate's office is located on the left from El Pueblito Shopping Center within Green Forest Studio community on the first floor – Unit No 13.

A Jaw-Dropping Time-Lapse Video of Optical Illusions in Abandoned Houses
Multimedia artist Jeff Frost's Flawed Symmetry of Prediction isn't your average time-lapse study of the Milky Way. Frost paints massive geometric shapes on walls so that they function as optical illusions, blurring the line between 2D and 3D when captured on video.The experimental piece unfolds to reveal a haunting, post-apocalyptic world where flickering wildfires and industrial plants illuminate desert vistas. Frost's sci-fi vibe is inspired in part by actual science — one painting draws on a NASA diagram of evidence for the Big Bang and the soundtrack uses clips recorded by Voyager 1. Be sure to watch it full screen in HD to appreciate the crisp visual detail.

Map of Europe's financial trouble
Eric Reguly writes Tuesday:
Italy moved with alarming speed from the fringe of the European Union's financial crisis to its very centre as efforts to prevent the debt contagion from spreading beyond Greece, Ireland and Portugal failed, even threatening to engulf the United States.
Plunging prices for trading in Italian debt presented Brussels with a nightmare scenario: The potential bailout of the third-largest economy in the euro zone could be unaffordable and could result in the destruction of the common currency.

Please give a warm welcome back to our Fabulous Friend Karen Motz. She's here with her third, and final project for the month as our February Fabulous Friend, and she has whipped up something totally delicious to share with you. Before I show you her stunning project, how about we get nosey?
What technique or style would you most like to develop in your own crafting?
"I really love the shabby chic/collage look but each time I try to do a project in that style it never turns out. But, I'm going to keep working at it, picking up shabby elements like the seam binding I'm seeing all over blog land, and hopefully one of these days I'll have a shabby chic project to share!"
Karen has created a lunchbox recipe file using "What's Cooking" as well as the Banner Strip Die-namic, the Rolled Rose Die-namic and the Small Scalloped Border Die-namic.
I adore all the thoughtful details that she's put into this project including – mini clothespins…..
Ruffly ribbon, twine and this gorgeous felt flower….
Rhinestone swirls, and this sweet banner……
last, but not least of course her adorable coloring of our sweet a la modes "What's Cooking?" and her signature perfect stitching on that oval panel?
We've been thrilled to have Karen with us this month as our special guest Fabulous Friend. You'll see her playing along with us each Wednesday as she's part of our Wednesday Stamp Club. If you're not already following her blog Paper Playhouse, be sure to add her to your daily reading!

Viewing All
This shirt is lightweight, durable, and looks and fits great! Generally shirts are either too large in the waist or too tight in the chest/arms, but this fits well on an athletic frame without constricting movement at all.
Summer in Oklahoma is defined by one word: humidity. If you wear cotton, you can expect it to be soaked in short order but this Nylon/Polyester blend makes life cool and easy during the hot months. And it looks great; the colors are vibrant and don't lose their luster after multiple washes. Highly recommended!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Illuminati (which means [the] "enlightened ones") is (or was) a secret society. Adam Weishaupt, a philosopher and lawyer, created it in 1776. In 1785., it was outlawed in Bavaria. Originally, they opposed superstition, prejudice, religious influence over public life, and abuses of state power. They supported women's education and gender equality. It's believed that the Illuminati has abandoned its old ways and is now more focused on world domination. Some people think that the Illuminati have infiltrated and secretly control all major banks, governments, music, and movie stars.

1 note &
What would you do with a £50m transfer fund in January? That was the question posed to the Soccernet editorial team by our podcast presenter, Dan Mason, this week.
Safe in the knowledge that Arsenal would never do anything as silly as spend vast amounts of money in strengthening their squad, this was very much a flight of fancy on my part, but here's the breakdown…
£25m - Sign Bastian Schweinsteiger from Bayern Munich. Okay so he's just signed a new contract, no problem, replace his current agent with Paul Stretford and Kia Joorabchian and let's get him out of there in double-quick time.
£20m - Bag Hugo Lloris from Lyon. The need for a new keeper is obvious, and why not make it a totally French back five? (Though Thomas Vermaelen's return will scupper this, and prohibit the need to spend fantasy money on a new defender of course).
£3m - Construct a triage centre at London Colney. Something needs to be done about these perpetual injuries.
£2m - Employ Paolo Maldini as a defensive coach. Something needs to be done about these perpetual mistakes.
Any thoughts?

A freezing cold Emirates Stadium was the setting for one of the most heart-warming things I've ever seen at a football game on Tuesday.
With Arsenal 5-0 in front, Eduardo pounced to score for Shakhtar. Cue about two seconds of silence, before the Emirates crowd rose as one to acclaim their former striker. It may well have been the biggest cheer of the night - and something I thought I would never see at a football game.
People might sneer at the sentimentality of it all, but that reception genuinely was special. Here's my full report for ESPNsoccernet.
5 notes &
I know Robin van Persie and he told me when we were together in the national team what a big game it is. But there was no banter over who is the bigger club. Spurs are the bigger club!
0 notes &
After being largely ignored by a crop of millionaires as I waited to interview the great and good of Arsenal on Wednesday night, such is life, Denilson generously stopped for a chat following the 6-0 win over Braga. We talked Cesc, trophies and whether Arsenal are an improved side from last season.

My piece for Soccernet on the young players set to make an impression in the Premier League this season, headed up by a familiar face.

The smarter way to manage your licences
Samarind RMS will help you maintain the completeness of your product licence data and improve your regulatory processes.
Samarind's regulatory information management (RIM) solutions offer a complete answer to pharmaceutical and medical device lifecycle management, structured document storage and regulatory submission.
Samarind RMS (regulatory management software) is designed to manage the regulatory submissions process end-to-end, including all licence submission and variation documentation with our ICH compliant eCTD tools, automatic compilation and processing of EVMPD data to the EMEA's pharmacovigilance website, Med Info for recording queries and adverse events, etc..
With a significant number of events per product each year, it is essential to meet all critical deadlines relating to your product portfolio; responses to LODs, licence reimbursements, continuity of marketing activities within the sunset clause, GMP inspections, etc.
Samarind RMS's system generates email notifications and alerts help you to maintain all communications with the respective national authorities, key stakeholders within your organisation and any supply chain partners, helping to ensure that all critical deadlines are met.
In addition to the operational benefits provided by Samarind RMS, there are immense security advantages to be gained because all of the critical data (including documents) is contained within a single database. The use of Microsoft® SQL Server® as the back-end to the application offers great scope in terms of security, functionality and reporting. For example, a single report about how many variations affecting a single product are currently pending across Europe might take several days to produce manually; with Samarind RMS it would take a matter of seconds.
Samarind RMS is available as two options: RMS for Windows and RMS On Demand.

Rated 5 / 5 stars Apr 25, 2012
same as how I would imagine him to be. he was an engineer. Now the big challenge is Leonardo. Raph, mikey, and Don are easy since there are people in real life that are like them when they were teens as well. Leo is very interesting, I will be surprised to see what you come up with. I have my own ideas, but I would like to see yours first before I share. mostly because I don't want to influence your artistic ideas and what you draw inspiration from
Leonardo is gonna be tough. I've been trying to come up with the right look to match the back story I've made for him. I think you're gonna be pleased with what I came up with though :)
Rated 4 / 5 stars Apr 24, 2012
Loved the background and color choice, but the eyes don't make me think of the gentle creature the turtle is. Other than that, good work.

The LOL Sketch. The result of odd humour and toast.
Animated and created by Splendid Devil
Written and voiced by Vini Babinski, Kieren Owen, Chris Bass and Daniel Kearney
Music by RealFaction and Kevin MacLeod
Dedicated to Edd Gould for inspiring me to animate in the first place.
*Edit* All the jokes and humour were improvised. Nothing was written.
*Second edit* Reading the comments now I can see that a lot of people don't like this, it's our improvised humour, a lot of people seem to enjoy it and a few of you don't. Constructive criticism is appreciated, not a review that attempts to point out every single flaw this animation has. It's one of our first so give us a break. Cheers.
Rated 5 / 5 stars April 1, 2012
Amazing, bro!!!
Your animation skills are the best! (and i laughted a lot) :D
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars April 1, 2012
i freakin' like the toast sound.
Rated 3 / 5 stars April 1, 2012
it was a bit slow but funny
Rated 4 / 5 stars April 1, 2012
over all pretty funny. especially the ones toast related. but i have to tell you i was thinkign of the transitions before i saw them you tackled it uniquely.... but they WHERE SO ANNNOYING. some of them where embarrassing. XD do more but lose the TRANSITIONS
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars April 1, 2012
I'm gonna give you 4 1/2 stars just because it actully made me laugh at one part at least. I don't really get why people are gonna trash talk on this. It was supposed to be stupid humor or at least not your "internet critic" level of funny. I'm tired of people hating on something at least they took the time to try, unlike the rest of you ungratefuls. I'd be mighty unfortunate if people would stop making flashes because all they get is what 12-25 year olds who think that because they can say a few big words it makes them an internet critic....look people its called constructive criticism not lets be a dick on the first thing we don't like...
p.s. it was an ok submission just try a little harder to make it funny not just slap stick and random tangents that in some cases could be funny but not that much in this so good job anyway on the art work and voice acting just try to smooth the voice acting out a bit and keep up the good work.

For the love of driving by Ponysoldier on 06/16/2006. Trim: 2003 Jaguar XK Series XK8 Convertible, Owned 2 years.
Pros: Drop dead gorgeous styling - coupled with great performance. Just add to the mix one of the best warranties. The only other vehicles that in my estimation which one could consider would be the Aston Martin,Porche 911, and the Bentley GT. I previoulsly owned five Corvettes ranging from model years 1958 thru 1993. GM doesn't get it. I will sacrifice a second off the 0 to 60 times for better styling. This is my 3rd Jaguar convertible and I never had a problem with any of them. The Jaguar is a well kept secret! Why?
Cons: My wife and I only have positive comments with respect to Jaguars.
Overall review: My current Convertible was purchased as a dealer Demo. Service for the auto has been excellent. The dealership treats the customer with kid gloves. Previously,I purchased two other Jaguar convertibles and incurred no problems with those cars. For the price of a new Camry, an individual can purchase a certified Jaguar.

perfect car by An MSN Autos Consumer on 10/29/2003. Trim: 2003 Jaguar XK Series XKR Convertible, Owned 1 year.
Pros: (No data provided)
Cons: (No data provided)

A future classic ? by Marc on 05/18/2013. Trim: 2003 Jaguar XK Series XKR Coupe, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: At the age of ten, this car still turns heads and I have immense pleasure in driving it, on and off (circuit) road.
Cons: Nothing!
Overall review: I can't imagine ever selling this car. A must keep.
Review ID: #572833 Is this review offensive?
A Class by Itself by An MSN Autos Consumer on 06/08/2008. Trim: 2003 Jaguar XK Series XK8 Convertible, Owned 2 years.
Pros: I thoroughly enjoy this car. I feel pampered every time I drive it. There is a uniqueness about this car. It is a head turner and I receive compliments often when I drive it. BMWs, Mercedes all look the same. You can't differentiate between the styles. Most sports cars do not have a back seat or any room to to put things. The back seat is not for people but for storage. My wife and I traveled cross country in our XK8. The back seat held briefcases and a cooler and the trunk held all our luggage. I looked at the BMWZ4 and Honda S2000. I would not buy them for this reason plus the motor in the XK8 so smooth and powerful. This is a roomy sports car. It has won my wife over!
Cons: Nothing. Many people complain about the J-Gate but it is far superior to the bump shift. I own a brand new Infinity G35X with every option. It is fast and technologically advanced. However, I rarely use the manual shift. With the J-Gate you put it in 3rd and it will start in first and shift only up to 3rd. I always have acceleration! A bump shift keeps you only in one gear. I never know what gear I am in. With the J-Gate I always know what is happening. The only thing better than the J-Gate are paddle shifters. Also, I have so many cassettes and it is nice not having to spend more money replacing them with CD's. I would like the power of the R but without the supercharge whine.
Overall review: This is a no brainer. When I get to choose between driving the Infinity G35X or my wife's 2007 convertible Solaris or my dad's Bentley, I choose the Jaguar. It is spacious, you can travel with it, and it has style and class. The gas mileage is a surprise. I get 26-28 mpg highway. I am thinking of trading in my Infinity in for a used Jaguar XJR. The British know comfort and class. I can't imagine selling the XK8.

The cat family at its best by ronc in Scottsdale on 01/09/2008. Trim: 2003 Jaguar XK Series XKR Convertible, Owned 2 years.

Cons: Haven't found anything
Overall review: WOW!
