The food industry has been changing and critical mass will be met in 5 to 10 y, making natural/organic/whole foods the new norm.
Long. Natural foods company is pricey, but growth is good.
They have struck a long term deal with WFM, which will prove to be a serious money maker. More and more people are eating healthy these days. Organic food is no long just for hippies and yuppies, it's going mainstream. This is a rock solid buy and hold(for a very long time) company.
Jason Moser
Plant based diets are on the rise and this distributor is poised for growth.
In my opinion the valuation of this company is a little high.
There are some issues with the use of cash flow the ratios are not the best of the industry.
I prefer tickets like SYY or SPTN .
It seems crazy, to me, that consumers don't mind growth hormones in their milk, and all the toxins that are taken for granted in non-organic commercial agriculture. Farmers (like my wife) say that the word Organic is a funny word because it's actually spelling out the very things we're all supposed to be doing with our food, and we have to certify it because people got greedy and farmers got lazy. Anyway, it's a growth industry (pardon the pun) in part because organic isn't a choice, really. In milk, in yogurt (in particular) it is the only option once you know the truth about growth hormones and make a purchasing decision for your own children.
Not only supplies items to Whole Foods, but other markets as well. As healthy eating becomes popular so will this stock.
UNFI delivers healthy, natural foods which is a trend that will continue to grow for the forseeable future.
all natural, organic, gluten free, no preservatives, no canola oil, ...This is what I have to hear from crazy hippie yoga instructors who drive off in their Hybrid SUV's all day when I hand free stuff out for WF's and other stores like it.. Might as well make some money off of it...
Health, its where its at. Have you noticed lately that the grocery store shelves are filled with products advertising how "clean" they are and how few additives they have. People want natural products.
Very happy with its growth pattern and I think they will remain on top for quite a while!
This portfolio tracks the performance of good companies vs. evil companies.
Organics keep pesticides out of our food chain = Good.
Everyone thinks that because Whole Foods is failing that natural foods are on a down slide. The truth is that more and more people make the switch to naturals and organics every time there is a food scare. So why is Whole Foods failing? Because they are overpriced, and every one of the "conventional" grocers that were never competitors before are now carrying what they once had a monopoly on.
Where does everyone else get the product from? UNFI
The more Whole Foods declines, the more customers are switching over, and the more business UNFI gains.
This stock was picked by TMFBiarritz in the 2008 TMF Stockpicking Contest.
This is a tough time for companies that rely on somewhat discretionary spending (organic food vs. conventional). Also, UNFI underestimated the costs of assimilating Millbrook. However, UNFI is the leader in organic food distribution, and the organic food movement will not go away. Every time there's a mad cow disease scare or a new study comes out on the dangers of pesticides, more people move to organics and realize they TASTE better too. The management team sounded confident on the recent conference call, and they have a prudent plan in place for continuing to grow the company through early acquisitions of emerging brands, with solid infrastructure already in place. From that perspective, UNFI is trading at a substantial discount today.

Australian kidnapped in Philippines seen on video
Associated Press
MANILA, Philippines — An Australian man held hostage by militants in the southern Philippines for more than a year has appeared in a video as proof that he is alive.
Warren Richard Rodwell said on the video that he is being held in isolation. He said he understands there are negotiations for his release under way but added, "I personally hold no hope at all for being released."
He said he was kidnapped by the Abu Sayyaf, a notorious al-Qaida-linked group.
Philippine intelligence officials said Wednesday that they believe the video, which has been circulated on YouTube, is authentic.
Rodwell appeared thinner than in a previous video posted in January. He held a copy of a local newspaper dated Dec. 15 and said the recording was made the following day.

My personal 'Games I love that are generally overlooked'-list for 2012
Sven Wohl
on 12.23.2012
So, hello there! Long time no see, I know. I've been quite busy, thanks to my new job as a full-time journalist. Still, I need to blog from time to time, and as it's the end of the year, I guess I have to pick my games of the year. Since pretty much everyone does that, I'm going to choose some games, that don't land on these lists quite often enough. So, this is my "Games I love that are generally overlooked"-list for 2012.
Super Monday Night Combat
This just had to be on the list. I put over 100 hours into this game, which is amazing considering the fact that I have like zero free time left. Still this interesting Moba-esque Team Fortress-like multiplayer team shooter is a lot of fun, even though it is really hard to get into at first. However, the game is overlooked a lot. I can't quite pin down, why that is, but if I had to guess, it's probably the steep learning curve and the fact that it is quite different from the "normal" Monday Night Combat. Since player numbers are dwindling fast, it has also become quite hard to find games anymore. Which is bad news if you like to play it every now and then.
Civilization V: Gods and Kings
Civilization V is one of my all-time favorite games and it's kind of weird how practically nobody talks about this game. The expansion pack that has been released this year brought many new 'old' things to the table. They are mostly elements, that were in Civ IV and were missing in Civ V, but still, religion and espionage are great fun! Also, some of the new civilizations, like Austria, are really fun to play. If only the multiplayer would work better.
Everything Grasshopper Manufacture made this year
Sure, Lollipop Chainsaw got a fair amount of ads, but in terms of awards, the game hasn't received too many yet. While it isn't a perfect game by any stretch, I feel like it deserved some more praise. Other Grasshopper Manufacture games like 'Sine Mora', 'Liberation maiden' and 'Black Knight Sword' also flew under the radar of most people, which is a shame, since they all are really interesting little games.
So, that's pretty much my selection of overlooked games. I think everyone has a few of those games, that he or she just loves but feels that not enough people got around to play them. The fun thing about these lists is, that they help you to find some hidden gems... If you have any hidden gems of 2012, that you feel are underappreciated, then feel free to share them in the comment section or in a separate C-Blog. And thanks for reading!

Videogames make me feel younger... and I'm cool with that
Sven Wohl
on 05.21.2012
One of the weirdest things about hitting your mid-20s is, that you feel young and like a teenager in some areas while fully realizing that you're actually getting old. Not old in objective terms, but you certainly feel a certain disconnect with young people, as you've started calling them, or teenagers, a word you'll say more and more in the way Max Scoville does. I've already had my fair share of get off my lawn moments, so I'm practically there, but looking at the videogames I play right now, I kind of noticed a few things.
First of all: Yep, I'm getting old. It has been 12 years since the last Diablo game and 9 years since the last Max Payne game. What adds to this is that Sega is constantly banging the retro-drum with the latest Sonic games and slowly brings back those Dreamcast games everyone seems to be yelling for. Then there's Kickstarter, where a new Carmageddon is being funded. Carmageddon! I played that when I was a kid!
Which leads me to my second part: Playing the sequels to some of my favorite games when I was a teenager makes me feel younger, at least for a short time. It's not quite on par with what Mega Man 9 or 10 did for me, de facto turning me into a 6-year-old again, but still bringing me back to the days where I was between 14 and 16 years old and playing Diablo 2 all night. What's irritating though, is the fact that I play those games in order to review them for a newspaper, which of course somewhat alters my interaction with those games. Still, the effect is there, and it makes me reconsider my age and feel younger at the same time.
And I'm cool with that!

Dear videogame industry, we need to talk...
Sven Wohl
on 07.19.2011
You keep on disappointing me! Not everyone in the industry, mind you, but a select few that make me feel sad on a regular basis create a feeling of distrust and dislike for you as an industry. Maybe I should explain to my dear readers why that is... I'll try to keep this short.
Nintendo's behavior
I have said this several times already, but I think I can say it again, with newly gained trust behind my words: I don't get Nintendo! So, Reggie comes on stage during E3 saying that they'll do everything to get the Hardcore gamers back. Heck, when didn't they make that promise, actually? A few weeks later, there's this Operation Rainfall campaign, so that the Wii can be more than some Netflix-box or an overprized paperweight. I live in Europe, so I shouldn't actually care about this, but still, I think Nintendo's behavior just downright sucks when it comes to releasing games. If that is your attitude when it comes to localization, don't be such dicks and make your consoles AND handhelds region locked! You're just begging hackers to take your systems apart!
And I still want my Fatal Frame 4!
Don't get me started on the 3DS either. Say what you want about the system, it just wasn't ready when it was kicked out of the door! No e-shop, almost no games worth mentioning in the first few months... heck, if you take away the Nintendo-64 ports, it's actually worse than the initial Nintendo DS library! The 3DS is running on ports right now: Street Fighter 4, Dead or Alive, Ocarina of time, Starfox... where are the original games? WHERE?
Sale-figures or 'What the heck are people buying??'
Duke Nukem Forever sold 700k units up until now. Shadows of the Damned 60k. Don't get me started on No More Heroes for the PS3, which is out in Japan and Europe. I'm just wondering what kind of logic operates here. Because, at the moment, I think people want Duke Nukem Forever 2 and Goichi Suda to be a homeless bum. Is 'Quality Control' something that really exists? Or is it just a myth, that you choose what games will be produced by choosing which games to buy right now? I heard a lot of people disliked Duke Nukem Forever and liked Shadows of the Damned. What is going on here? Speaking of games being produced...
Mega Man Legend 3 cancelled...
and you know what's the sad part about this? The Dev team that worked on that will probably move on to make another Resident Evil or Street Fighter game. Because there aren't enough of those and they aren't totally stagnant by now! It's not only that, but also the fact that after all these months of teasing us and involving fans in the development process, the game just gets canned. What kind of relationship do you have with you fanbase? One coming straight from your local S/M-Club I'd assume...
In Conclusion...
The industry makes me sad, because it constantly disappoints me in so many ways. There are a lot of decisions being taken that don't make much sense or just show that an industry that brought so much magic into my childhood actually just is a huge, money-making machine, run by people who don't really get their target audience...
Also, cocks!

Movies, videogames and (un)reasonable expectations
Sven Wohl
on 06.13.2011
Hello there, it's me. Yes, I know, I have been gone for quite some time now, haven't I? Why? I was kind of busy working for a gaming website and now I'm working for another Gaming Website, that focuses on Sega and thus gives me some time to write about other games on my personal blog here. Who do I write for now? Oh silly you, check the sidebar! Because everything else would be shameless advertising and as we all know, this community does not take kindly on shameless self-promotion!
Now, this is a blog dedicated to Josmeister, who became my 100th follower on Twitter and thus had the opportunity to choose the topic of a blog-post. Guess what, he wanted me to write about videogames and movies, so I did! Here we go!
'Videogames need to be more like movies'
This sentence is something that quite some people have been yelling repeatedly in random intervals for a lot of reasons. But let's focus on one of the most prominent loud persons in the videogame business to utter this sentence: David Cage.
Now don't get me wrong: I like David Cage! He's a guy with a vision and he tries really hard to fulfill that vision, which is something I can fully understand and actually get behind of. Unfortunately, his games are, in my honest opinion, lacking. There are many arguments for why they don't deliver, but my guess is that since you're reading this on Destructoid, you've all heard about what's wrong about these games.
However, I don't think that his initial claim is invalidated by his poor delivery. It's just that I don't think that he means the same thing as I do when I read that sentence. He seems to think: 'Games need to have long cut-scenes and a lot of dialogue in order to get their story across etc.' and I think: 'Games and movies should be able to be about the same things'.
So, his approach is more about the 'how' of storytelling in videogames while my standpoint is more about the 'what' of storytelling. Now, granted, this is a bit exaggerated, because on the 'what'-side of things, David Cage and I are pretty much on the same page: Games also should be about something different than violence. This is not to say that we should get rid of all our nice, little FPSes or God of Wars. Nope! This is about diversification!
Take Heavy Rain as example! Here, David Cage tried (and I chose that word for many reasons) to deliver a story about fatherhood. Sure, there is violence, but it is somewhat diminished if compared to other games. Or let's take L.A. Noire! Yes, yes, I know, also violence, but just think about the many stories this game is telling you in a rather well done way. Thematically speaking, these games are way more diversified than what we're normally used to. Sure, there are the Cooking Mamas and Trauma Centers, but they are not huge Triple A titles that get a lot of mainstream attention. A title like L.A. Noire on the other hand, does. This is of course no reason to claim only Triple A titles matter, just wanted to point out, that they have a more widespread recognition.
This, as far as I'm concerned, is pretty much the only point, where videogames should try to imitate other narrative media. In terms of delivery, I wouldn't say that it would be a good idea to look too much to other media, since one key component of videogames, interactivity, is not present there, at least for the most part.
So, I guess I made my point here, nice and clean. Hope you liked it, hope I didn't steal away too much of your time and thank you for reading. I'm happy about any kind of feedback!

100 Hours of Civilization 5: A conclusion of sorts
Sven Wohl
on 03.08.2011
Civilization has been one of those series that never left my side since I first started playing them. I think I was 12 when I started playing the second one, with its somewhat simplistic graphics and unbalanced gameplay. It was terribly hard to get into at first: Mechanisms seemed complex and mystifying, but the appeal of leading your own civilization through time was so great, that I was able to surpass those starting problems.
That's what Civ 2 looked like, back in the day. Simple, but very easy on your CPU/GPU, unlike the newer ones...
Many years later, I got my first hours on Civilization 5 as part of a review I had to write on it for the newspaper I do my reviews for. I was quite skeptical in my review back then, stating that I was worried that the simplified mechanics led to an overly superficial gameplay experience. I wrote that review after 25 hours of gameplay, but I was not sure, if I my impression of it, as mixed as it was, actually holds true after more time. So, what are my conclusions after 100 hours of gameplay?
First of all, yes, mechanics have been trimmed down quite a bit, in order to make the game accessible. Of course, that is not a bad thing at all. Does it really reduce my enjoyment of the game? Not really. Or rather, not anymore. One thing I had to get used to is, that I need to set up a higher difficulty for the game, to find it as entertaining as I found the fourth game. The AI in the game isn't really the brightest up until Prince difficulty. If it came to a war, I had absolutely no problem defeating three different opponents at the same time and getting huge deals out of those following peace treaties. That was way too unchallenging, and made Dominance Victories too easy to achieve.
Alternative victories are way more interesting in that perspective. While a cultural victory is just a grind-fest, political victories are the most interesting and hard to achieve ones of the bunch. Countless options and the new DLC help a lot to keep the motivation high, and there are mods, conveniently placed into a separate mode. It's no stretch for me to assume that I am going to arrive at 200 hours playtime too. All in all, I am surprised how well the game keeps up, even after those difficulties at the beginning.

Strømme Throndsen Design has assisted Lerum in developing a clear, unique and differentiating concept for a new brand of sugar free soft drinks. We created the concept, name, packaging and structural design for Zeroh!, which is sugar free, has zero calories and is available in exciting flavours. The brand concept communicates the zero sugar content and exciting flavours in a modern, fresh way.
Launched in February 2013, Zeroh! has quickly become a great success! Market share had reached 33% by August in Rema and Coop stores and 20% nationwide. This is a very strong start for a new brand which is still increasing in availability and as its shelf presence increases there is high expectations that more young consumers will find a stylish way to drink more water.
See the project in detail here.
The visual identity for the Market Council for Reindeer meat received Award for Design Excellence yesterday.
The jury highlights the following:The designers were faced with making some tough colour choices in order to portray the Norwegian plains as they really are: rugged, cold and barren, as opposed to the language of the category which often plays on national colours and local logos. It imbues a sense of the pristine, of cold immediacy, of rugged authenticity. The logo is clean and sharp yet at the same time conveys movement, and is so good that the jury feels it could stand alone. The jury is of the view that this profile will enhance the prominence of Norwegian reindeer meat. The craftsmanship is excellent and its implementation sobering and beautiful to behold.
See the project here.
How do you get your kids to happily eat healthy, nutritious food, every day? Jippi is Norgesgruppen's new brand for kids and their parents, providing more healthy and fun products in a broad set of categories. Strømme Throndsen Design has together with Unil/Norgesgruppen developed the design concept, name and packaging for more than 30 products that will be launched in your local Meny store on February 4th.
See the work for Jippi.
Strømme Throndsen Design has assisted Lerum in developing a new, unique and differentiating concept for a new brand of sugar free soft drinks. Strømme Throndsen created the concept, name, packaging and structural design. The brand is clearly communicating zero sugar and great taste in a modern, fresh way that gives the young consumers a stylish way to drink more water.
See the Zeroh! packaging project.
Strømme Throndsen Design are developing a new visual identity for the Market Council for Reindeer meat which represents the Norwegian Reindeer meat industry. The visual identity will form the basis of all communication for the promotion of reindeer meat. The design emphasises the distinctiveness of Norwegian reindeer and re-enforces its essential values of being natural, authentic, pure and tasteful.
Klar Tale (Clear Voice) is a new sub-brand from Dent, targeting young adults who want a sugar free,large and tasty lozenge for fresh breath and a clear throat.
Strømme Throndsen Design have created a new and engaging design concept with a correspondingsub-brand name, inspired by the product's physical attributes. The strong fresh taste of the lozengemakes people talk and gives a freshness to the mind that helps you express yourself clearly. Might even help certain politicians…
See the packaging for Dent Klar Tale here.
Jacobs Utvalgte is continuing its search for new products to add category growth in under-developed segments. It has recently extended its range with the addition of 6 new premium coffee variants. The design highlights the origin of each coffee by using authentic landscape photographs accented with relevant colours to ensure good product differentiation. The premium smell of coffee!
Jacobs Utvalgte was honoured with a Design Effect 2010 award by the Norwegian Design Council and has become a success for Meny, stimulating growth in the premium segment for this highly recognised food chain.
See some of the work for Jacobs Utvalgte here.
Yoplait L'Amour was relaunched in September 2009 and has since increased turnover from 11.8 million NOK to 51.9 million NOK (Source: Nielsen 52W W150810). With a superior taste and a distinct message of French indulgence, the brand was able to increase its price by 30%, adding both value and volume. L'Amour Kiwi was launched on the 1st September and is already showing good results, following the success of the 3 existing flavours; Mango, Blueberry and Blackberry.
The Norwegian Design Council honoured Yoplait L´Amour with a Design Effect 2010 award.
(Numbers from Nielsen 52W 16.08.09, 15.08.10, 14.08.11)
See the packaging for Yoplait here.
laMote, the renowned hosiery brand, wanted to encourage young girls to buy their tights and leggings in local grocery stores rather than in the established fashion chains. Strømme Throndsen Design developed the packaging to emphasise the values, trendy, cool, youthful and vital. The result is a design with attitude that brings laMote up to date within the target group, making it more attractive for young girls to buy their accessories in grocery stores.
Here is our latest project for laMote.

Intel has introduced the fourth-generation Intel Core processor family, providing responsive, secure and powerful performance for consumers to create and consume content. With power levels as low as 6W in scenario design power, Intel is enabling thinner, lighter, cooler, quieter and fanless designs. The fourth-generation Intel Core processors are capable of delivering up to 15% better performance than the previous generation, the vendor said.
Consumer and business systems based on quad-core versions of fourth-generation Intel Core processors are now available. Summer availability is planned for 2-in-1s ultrabooks, portable all-in-ones and traditional notebooks and desktops. New mobile business products with fourth-generation Intel Core vPro will be available later this year.
The fourth-generation Intel Core processors can bring an 50% improvement in battery life over the previous generation in active workloads when watching movies or surfing the Internet, and two to three times improvement in standby battery life. For some systems coming to market this year, over nine hours of active use battery life or 10-13 days of standby with fresh data on a single charge is expected.
To achieve this breakthrough, Intel significantly reduced the CPU power to as low as 6W and also worked across the system for power optimization. These improvements range from system-on-a-chip (SoC) and platform level technologies to Intel's 22nm process technology.

Comments about KidKraft Ride Around Town Train Table and Train Set:
Bought to be able to use with Thomas motorized trains. Nothing works on tracks which have poor connections. Trains fall off when rounding corners. Track is awful. Do not buy this set!

Comments about KidKraft Ride Around Town Train Table and Train Set:
I bought this for my 3 year old. He loves trains. As in puts his trains to bed at night and wakes up to play with them in the morning. This is the first full table I have purchase. I blindfolded my son to surprise him with the table. He was so excited when he saw it. It was great! He loves it. The only down side is the actual trains don't always roll very well and they sometimes get stuck under the bridge. Overall I am very pleased with the product and the price.

Tested by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute
LG Front-Load Ultra-Large Capacity SteamWasher with 6Motion Technology
Product Review
About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
Looking to save energy without sacrificing cleaning performance? The LG WM3885HCCAs ColdWash cycle should do the trick. We found that it produced results comparable to the stain-busting power of a warm wash cycle in our test loads. Plus, the washer is programmed to inform you how much energy a cycle uses. If you do your fair share of delicate and bulky loads, however, you may want to look elsewhere, as this washer was a poor performer in both of those categories. Consumer testers loved the units LCD control panel, and we loved LGs SmartDiagnosis technology, which allows customer service representatives to diagnose washer problems over the phone before ordering a new part or scheduling a service call. lg.com.

If not a Nexus 5, what's planned for the Google Play 'night out'?
Last week, Google sent out invitations for a "night out" event in New York on October 24 with folks from Google Play and music from Capital Cities. The instant speculation was that the event could be the long-awaited reveal of the Nexus 5 and Android KitKat, but almost as quickly as that gossip caught fire, it was quashed. Word spread that there would be no hardware introduced at the mysterious soiree.
OK, so what gives? … Read more

Ground Zero
Mali - Part 1
Ground Zero - Mali was shot in Gao, Mali, on February 21, 2013. It's basically the first legitimate combat footage to come out of the war there. Normally the French ban journalists from the frontlines and film a sanitized version of the fighting themselves and then distribute it to the media.
In this case, the insurgents came to us: they slipped into Gao overnight on small boats and used suicide bombers to blast their way into government buildings. The French left the fighting to the Malian army for most of the day as a test of their combat abilities. Malian soldiers, while very brave, are almost completely untrained and had great difficulty fighting less than a dozen jihadists, some of whom were children. They fired wild bursts of automatic fire everywhere, destroying the city center. The Malians soon ran out of ammunition and had to wait for the French to show up and save the day.

IPv6: The New Internet Protocol
Author: Christian Huitema
Publisher: Prentice Hall 1996
Price: $44.00
Reviewer: Danny Yee
Huitema's IPv6 is a concise but comprehensive description of the new Internet protocol. It begins with a very brief account of the motivation for a new protocol and the background to its selection (the competition between the different contenders), then plunges straight into the technical details: a chapter describing the basic packet format; one on routing and addressing; chapters on auto-configuration, security, and support for flows; a chapter on transition issues; and a final chapter in which Huitema offers his personal opinion of the major decisions made in the protocol design.
Each of the chapters goes into some detail. The chapter on security, for example, describes the Photuris key exchange system quite thoroughly, while the chapter on flows enters a little into the issues of fair queuing. Each chapter also discusses the points which were controversial in the decision process: such things as the length of the addresses, the mandation of potentially unexportable security support, the relationship between IP and ATM, and the choice of a dual-stack approach to IPv4-IPv6 integration rather than use of header translation. I felt that IPv6 had much more meat to it than Bradner and Mankin's longer IPng (Addison-Wesley 1995), but the two books are really complementary, with the latter dealing more with the historical context and the framework within which the decision was made than with IPv6 itself (the difference in titles is appropriate).
IPv6 is a very nice little volume, marred only by poor proof-reading—there were far too many simple grammatical mistakes, and at least one spelling error which any automated spell-checker should have found. Anyone interested in the technical details of IPv6 will want a copy—even if you are prepared to wade through the relevant RFCs, IPv6 provides annotated references to these and other important papers at the end of each chapter.
Disclaimer: I received a review copy of IPv6: The New Internet Protocol from Prentice Hall, but I have no stake, financial or otherwise, in its success.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Chelsea Clinton in Vogue: Mulling Political Future, Looking Beautiful
by Free Britney at .Chelsea Clinton is featured in the new issue of Vogue magazine.
In it, she muses that like her famous parents - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton - she may seek office too one day.
"Before my mom's campaign I would have said no," Chelsea said.
However, "If there were to be a point where it was something I felt called to do and I didn't think there was someone who was sufficiently committed to building a healthier, more equitable, more just, more productive world?"
"Then that would be a question I'd have to ask and answer."
Clinton, 32, who married investment banker Marc Mezvinsky in 2010, said her celebrity is "something I could continue to ignore or it was something I could try to use to highlight causes that I really cared about," she told Vogue.
"I believe that there are many ways for each of us to play our part. For a very long time that's what my mom did. And then she went into elected public life. Her life is a testament to the principle that there are many ways to serve.""Historically I deliberately tried to lead a private life in the public eye," she said. "And now I am trying to lead a purposefully public life."
People have pondered Chelsea's political future for her since ... forever.
"It was something I had thought a lot about because people have been asking me that my whole life," she said. "Even during my father's 1984 gubernatorial campaign, it was, 'Do you want to grow up and be governor one day?' No. I am four."

She was one homely teenager. Glad to see she's blossomed, but if I had her money, I could probably look good too - most anyone could if truth be told.
If we all had the money of the Kardasian girls, we could all look a whole lot better, and once you take all the glitz and glam off them, they aren't really anything special. So instead of spending your money following them around, save it and spend it on glitz and glam for yourselves ladies.
Oh, I don't know....she looks attractive enough. It's just that at this point I can't see her yet as a credible possibility for a political career. Learn from Caroline Kennedy, Chelsea--you can't run on your family name...you gotta earn the respect and trust of the voters out there. Get a Washington job that gives you something to cut your political teeth on! It's the only way!

It looks like Massachusetts' Attorney General Tom Reilly is the lone wolf in continuing to fight Microsoft's monopoly.
"Massachusetts on Friday appealed a U.S. judge's decision accepting the settlement, which its attorney general criticized as a 'loophole-filled deal' that won't affect the software maker's aggressive practices."
Link, but doesn't everyone have a warm spot for the lone wolf?
Are they just going to bang their head on the wall here?

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The family name of one of the participants in the tournament might be familiar, especially to area baseball fans.
Lisa Kolb Hughes is a regular on the Charleston tennis scene and is playing in her eighth Public Courts tournament.
Her father is Gary Kolb, former baseball player for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Charleston Charlies.
It took a lot of twists and turns for Lisa to end up in Charleston.
"I was born in Tulsa," she said. "He had just started with the Cardinals organization and was there playing AAA ball in 1962."
Kolb played parts of three seasons for the Cardinals, two seasons for the Milwaukee Braves, and one with the Mets before playing his final two seasons in Pittsburgh.
"He came back here in 1970 as a player-coach for the Charlies," Lisa said. "We liked the area so we just stayed."
He needed a couple of more years of service for his pension, which he ended up getting.
Kolb stayed involved in baseball by coaching Babe Ruth ball in the 1970's. One of his squads won the state championship with former Nitro baseball and University of Charleston tennis player Don Doss as one of the pitchers.
Kolb just turned 73 in March and still lives in Cross Lanes.
Lisa's sons, Matt and Jordan, never really followed in their grandfather's shoes.
"They played one year and then soccer took over," she said. Matt later played tennis at Capital High and UC and has played in Public Courts several times.
Among other memories Lisa recalled Hank Aaron spending a couple of days at her father's place years ago.
"It was an interesting life," she said. "A lot of good memories."
* * *
One player sorely missed at this year's event is Albert "AB" Bailes.
Bailes played in his first Public Courts at age 55 back in 1988. He George Davis defeated Gene Monk and Jim Fulks to win the 55 and over doubles title.
He went on to play in the tournament every year. Bailes won several more championships including the 80 and over doubles crown last year when he and Ike Smith teamed to beat Clarence Woody and Jack Neal 6-1, 6-3.
A former air traffic controller and member of the U.S. Air Force, Bailes worked at several area tennis facilities after retired including the Tennis Indoor Center in Kanawha City the last few years.
Bailes passed away April 29 at age 80.
* * *
Kim and Rory Isaac ran the Charleston Public Courts Tennis Tournament from 2004 through 2009.
After a three-year hiatus they were back at the helm this weekend.

G-X Disinfectant - Review and Giveaway
The G-X Disinfectant is an aerosol disinfectant spray that gets in hard-to-clean places to help kill more than a dozen harmful germs and viruses, including Influenza A. It is EPA Registered to be effective in killing the Influenza A virus, when used according to directions. Sized in a 16 oz. can, the aerosol penetrates cracks and crevices liquids can't reach.
There's eight people living in my household. When one gets sick, the domino effect takes place until we all get sick. I'm pretty vigilant about disinfecting my home to help prevent that from happening. I've been using the G-X Disinfectant on my doorknobs, all around the baseboards, and around the sides of large appliances. The can is big enough that it will last me a while. I can't say for certain that the G-X Disinfectant spray is what's kept my household from getting sick so far since using it, but I feel a little more comfortable and safe in knowing I'm using a product that's EPA registered and formulated to keep harmful germs from causing us illness.
If you are interested in earning some extra income, you can take advantage of Stanley Home Product's business opportunities to earn 35% on every item you sell.
Win It!
One person will win G-X Disinfectant.

Current format schedule, I'm a season ticket holder with seats for the whole family. Proposed new schedule, I'M OUT! I'll buy the occasional set of tickets for the big games, that's it. In Seattle, 2/3 of the stands are filled with casual fans that pretend to be serious, including me. Half of those will spend their money elsewhere.
MLS schedule switch could create as many problems as it solves
Few subjects register on American soccer's Richter scale quite like some old-fashioned speculation about the MLS competition format. And it is old-fashioned.
Since the league kicked off in 1996, boilerplate arguments concerning promotion and relegation, a switch to the "European" fall-to-spring calendar and the merits the MLS Cup playoffs have come up time and again. Not much changes, but the subjects continue to captivate.
That may be because of a popular, deep-seated belief that something other than time, investment, hard work and patience is required to lift MLS to the next level. It assumes that the significant cultural evolution already underway — compare soccer's place on the American sporting landscape now to 25 years ago — might be hastened by a cosmetic adjustment to the MLS standings or schedule. As if crowning a champion in June or eliminating conferences might magically erase one of the decades by which we measure the advantage enjoyed by pro football, baseball and basketball.
On Monday morning, New York's Daily News rekindled the wildfire when it reported that MLS was "inching closer" to shifting to a fall-to-spring season. It claimed the switch could happen in 2014 — a World Cup year — and that conversations about an overhaul "have intensified in recent weeks."
Cue the Twitter meltdown.
MLS executive VP Dan Courtemanche took to his own account and called for calm, reminding fans that the league "has reviewed many possible schedule formats throughout the years." He wrote that MLS recently conducted a fan survey – one of several it administers each season – on the schedule, but that no significant alterations were planned for 2014. If that's "inching closer", then the Daily News was correct. But for now, a comprehensive realignment isn't in the cards.
The league does keep its options open, as it should. For example, In late 2010 MLS investigated moving to the European calendar. There were three arguments for a switch:
- Its teams could take full advantage of the summer transfer window, when foreign clubs do the vast majority of their business.
- The MLS Cup playoffs wouldn't be overshadowed by the NFL, college football and the climax of the MLB season.
- It might impress FIFA voters preparing to select the site of the 2022 World Cup.
At that time, a league source suggested that MLS was looking at kicking off its regular season in mid-August, breaking from mid-December through mid-February, and then staging the title game in early June. In non-World Cup years, the ensuing two months could be used for exhibitions and tours. Here's how that would look compared to MLS' 2010 timetable:
A transition season lasting a year-and-a-half, similar to the one Russia staged in 2011-12, likely would be required (a similar plan would make a 2014 switch impossible).
Then FIFA chose Qatar as the site of the 2022 World Cup, invalidating reason number three listed above. MLS' plans to study the feasibility of a shift more closely were shelved. And that's no surprise — a fall to spring schedule would present its own array of challenges.
A good chunk of the U.S. and Canada experiences weather that would render regular season games in early December and late February rather miserable. MLS clubs would be giving up dates in the summer, when most compete only with baseball and when families might be more likely to buy tickets. A two-month winter break would cut short the season's momentum and any budding storylines. The MLS Cup playoffs might be overshadowed by the NFL and MLB in the fall, but they'll likely be overshadowed by the NHL and NBA in the spring.
The North American sports calendar is always congested, and soccer hasn't reached the point where it can command consistent headlines, no matter the time of year. MLS is in its 18th season. The NBA, the youngest of the four largest U.S./Canadian circuits, is in its 68th.
MLS continues to discuss changes large and small and to solicit feedback from fans and stakeholders. It is in no rush, however, to feed the format frenzy. A fall-to-spring schedule, promotion/relegation and an end to the playoffs will remain distracting debate, and not much more, for the foreseeable future.
