July 29, 2014 - Cincinnati Enquirer - Frameri, the local startup that allows customers to use the same set of eyeglass lenses in multiple frames, announced on Tuesday it has raised $750,000 and is moving into the Emanuel Community Center in Over-the-Rhine. The developments mark the continuation of a 9-month whirlwind for the startup following its graduation from The Brandery, the nationally recognized consumer marketing and branding accelerator, in October.
July 29, 2014 - Fox Business - Entrepreneurship is not exclusive to Silicon Valley, a point that serial investor Steve Case is working to drive home across the U.S. "Taking up the cause of America's entrepreneurs strikes many as banal and out-of-touch. I could not disagree more. Absent entrepreneurship, our economy will never come back and the most severe problems we face – disease, climate change, income inequality, the federal debt — will only grow worse," Case wrote in a USA Today op ed.
August 10, 2014 - PandoDaily - Earlier this week, Airbnb founder Brian Chesky appeared on The Colbert Report to explain to Colbert precisely how Airbnb "is different from home prostitution." But Chesky is far from the first tech founder or senior exec to guest on the Comedy Central show, and wasn't even in the top ten best appearances. Here's the complete, absolutely objective, ranking in reverse order…6) Steve Case (AOL)
August 8, 2014 - Chicago Tribune - Chicago's first venture capital summit has lined up three industry leaders — PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel, Cisco chief technology officer Padmasree Warrior and former AOL executive Ted Leonsis — as participants, the city's technology council, ChicagoNEXT, announced this week.
July 23, 2014 - USA Today - For as long as I have been involved with start-ups, it has been an article of faith among entrepreneurs and investors that Silicon Valley is where you go to start the next billion-dollar technology company. There is no contesting that when it comes to cultivating a successful entrepreneurial ecosystem, Silicon Valley is the pride of America and the envy of the world. But there is another side to this story, what I have routinely referred to as the "Rise of the Rest" — the belief that while Silicon Valley will remain dominant for the foreseeable future, new start-up ecosystems will emerge all across the country and the geography for high-growth entrepreneurship in America will itself be disrupted.
Steve Case, Ted Leonsis, Paul Singh among top D.C. tech investors on Twitter, Washington Business Journal
July 22, 2014 - Washington Business Journal - No surprises here: Steve Case and Ted Leonsis are the most influential D.C. tech investors on Twitter, according to social media Analytics firm StatSocial. StatSocial's annual top 1,000 ranking, localized here by Herndon-based mobile development shop 10Pearls, places Case's Twitter handle at No. 11, with more than 660,000 followers and a "pull" of 46 million. Pull, according to StatSocial, is a measurement of not just how many followers an account has, "but also how well-connected those followers are." Leonsis comes in a No. 79, with more than 37,600 followers and a pull of 7.1 million.
July 22, 2014 - InTheCapital - Airbnb will exclusively partner with D.C. venture capital backed startup Handybook, for its discounted cleaning services program. When we last reported on Handybook it had just closed a $30 million round of funding led by the D.C.-based Revolution Growth venture capital group. It's home repair and maintenance by app, basically an Uber for getting your home fixed, drew plenty of investors and interested partners, including Airbnb. Both Handybook and similar startup Homejoy participated in the Airbnb program, but now Airbnb has ended its deal with Homejoy, leaving Handybook the sole partner in its program.
July 22, 2014 - Forbes - Steve Case, former CEO of AOL AOL -1.3%, is looking for new startups to invest in but he's not headed to Silicon Valley. This summer, he visited Cincinnati, Detroit, Pittsburgh, and Nashville on a bus tour aptly called "The Rise of the Rest." What he found, he says, is a resurgence of American entrepreneurship and venture capitalists, who are glued to the Valley, should perk up. Opportunities abound in the heartland. Last week, I spoke with Case about what the Valley is missing out on and how entrepreneurship in America's "other" cities is gaining traction.
July 16, 2014 - Forbes - Along with his team at Revolution, AOL founder Steve Case has been championing companies like these through his recent "Rise of the Rest" campaign. Mr. Case hasn't just talked about the need to empower America's entrepreneurs between the coasts; he's lived it out and he's led the way. He recently completed a 1,000-mile bus tour of Detroit, Nashville, Pittsburgh, and Cincinnati, where he invested $100,000 in the top startup in each community. We're inspired by his example, and we're hopeful that as government, business, and civic leaders outside of Silicon Valley build up their local entrepreneurial communities, something new is starting to happen. These leaders are beginning to shift their focus away from the high-tech pipe-dream of being the next Silicon Valley; instead, they're supporting the American Dream, by bolstering entrepreneurs who are solving the problems that impact all of us.
July 10, 2014 - Washington Business Journal - When Internet technology met travel, their first date was in the air. Expedia, Priceline and others upset the airlines' apple cart with online ticket sales. Trains, hotels and rental cars quickly followed suit. Recently, Uber, Lyft and others have started disrupting the taxicab industry with technology. Now, high-tech is ready to revolutionize bus travel. Who better to do it than D.C.-based Revolution?
July 9, 2014 - WSJ.D - Busbud Inc. has raised $9 million in new venture funding to become the mobile app of choice for world travelers who need to find and book intercity trips by bus. Plenty of travel tech ventures have sprouted up over the years, but most have helped shoppers to find and buy higher-priced services like hotel rooms, plane tickets or rental cars, said Busbud co-founder and Chief Executive LP Maurice. Revolution Ventures and OMERS Ventures led the Series A investment in Busbud, joined by the company's earlier, seed backers iNovia Capital and Real Ventures. Busbud raised $1.2 million in seed funding in May 2013.
Revolution co-leads investment in Busbud, an online portal to purchase bus tickets, The Washington Post
July 9, 2014 - The Washington Post - District-based investment firm Revolution said Wednesday it is putting money behind an online portal where globe-trotters can peruse bus schedules and purchase bus tickets to cities such as Munich, Rio de Janeiro and San Francisco. The $9 million investment in Montreal-based Busbud was co-led by Revolution and the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System, a Canadian pension fund. Previous investors in the company contributed to the round as well.

The logo for Cades Cove Cellars is a black bear with a wine glass for a snout. The winery in Townsend opened last month.
When it comes to adult beverages, East Tennessee has been better known for moonshine than fine wine.
But we do have some local wineries including one that just opened.
Winery in Townsend embraces East Tennessee. Emily Stroud and Jerry Owens
It's a place where sophisticated machinery bottles a beverage with a lot of history.
"I've had a love affair with wine for a long time. I've made wine since back in the early 1960s. Started out as a hobby. Outgrew my basement, outgrew my massage, then I finally had to go legal," Jerry Reed said.
The owner of the winery in Townsend first opened a winery in Loudon County in 1984 then sold it about a year ago and moved.
"Had a chance at a piece of property over here and so we took it and started from there," he said.
Jerry Reed and his family started Cades Cove Cellars. It opened about a month ago.
"One of the things in Cades Cove obviously is the wildlife so that's why we chose the bear," he explained.
A black bear is their logo. The bear's snout is a wine glass.
"While we were under construction we had bears back here on the crush pad back here. We even had one bear that tried to get in to our glycol chiller. You can still see his claw marks on the back of the chiller," Jerry Reed said.
Visitors are welcome to step up to the tasting bar and try some of the wines. Just don't expect any high brow discussion.
"I try to demystify wine. I'm not one who launches off and goes into a big direction of taste this and smell that and do all this other stuff. It's all about what you like," he said.
You may like to see the actual bottling. That sophisticated machinery produced 1,200 bottles an hour. That's 100 cases an hour.
"Very few moving parts in it. It's all done by compressed air. We don't have any gears and all this other kind of stuff that usually gum up and go bad or whatever. It's really a sweet piece of equipment," he explained. "It will keep two of three people hustling I'll tell you that. At the end of the day you know you've done some work."
At the end of the day Cades Cove Cellars plans to be a thriving business as well as a good neighbor.
"We're trying to keep everything local. We're trying to fit in with the area and fit in with the mountains and the greenery and everything else," he said.
They even used trees cut down on the property to make a large custom wine rack.
"There's about 1,100 bottles of wine in there," he said.
That's a lot of wine. You're welcome to taste it in Townsend.

Alaska GOP Congressman Stupidly Gives Lapdog Media Another Occasion to Screech "Racist!"
By Sancho Panza On March 29, 2013 · 9 Comments
The liberal media is taking absolute delight in taking another idiot GOP politician's words to beat the rest of us over the head with.
In this case it was Alaska representative Don Young, who used the term "wetback" which is very offensive to Hispanics:
During a visit Young made to Ketchikan, KRBD-FM interviewed him on a variety of issues pertaining to the economy and Arctic development. Young mentioned the role technology played in advancing economic development, using an example from his farm days in California.
"My father had a ranch; we used to have 50-60 wetbacks to pick tomatoes," Young said. "It takes two people to pick the same tomatoes now. It's all done by machine."
I took to twitter to express my frustration and anger at this, and unfortunately, I got some push back from some conservatives. Now, I agree that the liberal media completely embellishes these stories while covering up or not reporting at all those similar stories on the Left.
One perfect example was from this weekend when the Palestinian Authority's militant wing Hamas posted an article calling Obama the "Jewish Organ-Grinder's Monkey." If an individual on the Right had said this, they would have been captured, shaved, jobless, and tarred and feathered within the hour of utterance. But because it's Jimmy Carter's best friends forever, the crazy Hitler-loving 911-denying Palestinians, it wasn't reported at all.
However, Young' comments are still offensive, and plain stupid.
The problem I have with anyone defending his comments is that it seems like a knee-jerk conservative reaction to leftist knee-jerk screeching of "racist." We don't have to defend every conservative against accusations of racism, and in this case, we shouldn't.
Defend conservative principles and values, don't stubbornly defend Republicans when they say something stupid, especially when it's feeding into leftist stereotypes of the GOP.
Young issued a statement Thursday night in which he didn't apologize for the remark, but attempted to place it in the context of vocabulary at the time.
"During a sit down interview with Ketchikan Public Radio this week, I used a term that was commonly used during my days growing up on a farm in Central California," Young said. "I know that this term is not used in the same way nowadays and I meant no disrespect."
Whether you want to accept that "wetback" is an offensive term or not, this is not the hill we want to defend in this political battle. We need to face demographic reality, and reaching out to Hispanics is a becoming more and more of a necessity – in order to not give in on our conservative principles, we're going to have play the optics game much better, and this is not how you do it.
So Obama gives $500 million of your taxpayer money borrowed from your children's future and gives it to people calling him a monkey. An idiot GOP representative makes an offensive comment which mostly has absolutely no bearing on policy.
Guess which you'll hear about more?
However, we whine enough about media bias when it's unwarranted – let's not give them real reasons to smear us with.
UPDATE: @RBpundit of the Right Sphere is calling for Young's resignation.

Andrew Young says:
So Rep Young, "that was the term used back then and didn't think it was disrespectful" what? It was disrespectful then as is now. Ugh, whatever happened to thinking before speaking?
William Keane says:
Regardless of whether it is racist, it clearly is a stupid thing to say. We can scream about the double standard and media hypocrisy all we want. However, bottom line is we should know by now that as Republican you are not going to get favorable coverage (unless you say something criticizing fellow Republicans) so it is important to choose your words carefully.
mike says:
Report on the lefts hypocrisy, by reporting on the left's hypocrisy and not just mentioning it in a story about the right and I might take these things more seriously
Rebecca Leigh Randolph says:
Rep Young is the perfect example of what we need to purge from the party. First of all, anyone that talks about how things were "back in my days" sounds like someone who has been more of a part of the problem than someone with fresh ideas and solutions to them. His terminology reminded me of my grandma unwittingly using terms that are no longer acceptable. Sure enough, I looked him up and he's a longtime Congresscritter who's 79 and facing an investigation by the House Ethics Committee. These people loose elections and have no place in the future of the GOP. The RNC should be putting the pressure on him to resign, especially when he never apologized for his remarks, only attempted to clarify them.
Original Pechanga says:
Wonder if he would have gotten the same pushback if he had used the word "mojado" because I know that was invented by a white guy….
maybetoday777 says:
You people are idiots at how such WORDS offend you so easily. This is the way ALL Idolators are who get their thinking from tv, radio and newspapers. Youre the problem just as much as the Rep is. Every little things offends you that isn't important and all the big important things dont offend you at all.
John Marsan says:
foxnewslatino led with this story.
StrangernFiction says:
Heritage Action scores:
Don Young – 38%
Lisa Murkowski – 43%
Conservatives don't need to defend Young, BECAUSE HE'S NOT A CONSERVATIVE!
jmb1 says:
Racism in the fabric of the GOP and you try to deflect it with something the Palestinian Authority's Hamas said about Obama???

Last week I attended the School Nutrition Association's annual meeting in Boston, a gathering of the nation's school food service workers. While most of the controversy lately has focused on the federally-required improvements to nutrition standards for school lunches, getting lost in the shuffle are new standards coming online this fall for school snacks and beverages.

Whitewashed: How Industry and Government Promote Dairy Junk Foods
The United States is in the midst of a public health epidemic due to poor diet. While much of the focus has been on obvious culprits such as sugary soft drinks and fast food, dairy foods often get a pass. The dairy industry, propped up by government, has convinced us of the health benefits of milk and other dairy products. But the context of how people consume dairy matters.
USDA's Proposal on Food Marketing in Schools Could Harm Children
Today, on behalf of Corporate Accountability International and in collaboration with the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, I submitted the following comments to the U.S. Department of Agriculture regarding its proposal to require schools to only allow marketing for those foods allowed under the agency's "Smart Snacks" nutrition guidelines. (See also the excellent comments submitted by Public Health Advocacy Institute on junk food products created for schools.)
Too Soon to Celebrate New SNAP Incentive Program in the Farm Bill
By Michele Simon and Daniel Bowman Simon
Some local food advocates are applauding the new Food Insecurity Nutrition Incentive program in the finally-passed farm bill. The idea is to provide cash incentives to participants in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (aka food stamps) for healthy eating. But a closer look reveals the celebration may be premature at best.
Save the Food Stamp Program by Reforming It
With each attempt to pass the 2012 farm bill (yes, it has been that long), congressional Republicans keep ratcheting up their cruelty to poor Americans. While last year's bill would have cut $16 billion to food stamps, the House of Representatives has now proposed an astonishing $39 billion reduction in benefits over 10 years. While many media pundits are outraged, and rightly so, missing from the national conversation are important questions about the effectiveness of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, the federal food assistance plan formerly known as food stamps.

How Smart are School Snacks? A Closer Look at New USDA Rules
In April, I submitted comments to the U.S. Department of Agriculture on behalf of Center for Food Safety regarding proposed nutrition guidelines for "competitive foods" sold in schools. These are foods sold outside the school program and consist mainly of junk food and soda. Our position was that schools should do away with these foods altogether and focus on improved school meals. While some groups celebrated when the interim final rule was released in June, numerous questions remain. (USDA is calling the rule "Smart Snacks in School.") I asked registered dietitian Andy Bellatti to take a closer look at the new nutrition guidelines for potential weaknesses. You can submit comments to USDA until October 28; the rule takes effect in the 2014 school year.

Ask a Food Lawyer: What does "natural" mean on food labels?
Short answer: Next to nothing.
With the nation finally waking up to the sad reality that truly healthy food doesn't come in a box, food manufacturers are desperate to keep shoppers fooled into thinking highly processed food products are good for them. How do companies get away with this? Because the federal government lets them.
But it's not for a lack of trying.
How Did a Hepatitis Virus Get into Organic Berries?
It seems hardly a week goes by without another foodborne illness outbreak. This time, in frozen organic berries, proving once again that even the health-conscious are not immune from getting sick. Although you wouldn't know it from the packaging, the contaminated fruit came from overseas, raising several questions such as: Can we trust the USDA organic seal on imported food? I address this and other issues about our globalized food system in my latest article for Center for Food Safety, which you can read on their site here.

Please be aware that this is a "Supper Club". Thus, they serve "supper" in the smallish though comfortable and pleasant room. So, if you go to the show hungry this would be a good place for a "dinner and show". The food items looked good costing around $18 each as I recall. There was no pressure to buy food and the wait staff was friendly giving us no pressure to buy anything. WE DIDN'T BUY ANY FOOD JUST ASKING FOR ICE WATER with a piece of lemon in it which we promptly received with a friendly demeanor from the staff. So we tipped 'em $10 at the end of the very good Judy Garland show.
Even if you don't want or buy dinner, I think you'll love the show. I was hoping for a "high and musical Judy Garland voice" and at first I was just a bit disappointed because the performer is a guy and his voice is naturally not as high as was the voice of Judy Garland. But, once I got used to the above, he really DID put on a great show! It's not only singing songs but an interesting narrative of events in the life of Judy Garland. If you love Judy Garland, you'll love this performance as we did! Highly recommended!
The area in West Hollywood is rather crowded. There is free parking on the east side of The French Market with cars leaving frequently so we parked there. But, just in case you cannot find any free parking, there is parking for $10 at a Bank of America parking lot about 1/4 mile to the west on the same side of the street as The French Market.

Excellent life history of Judy, with costume changes & songs. The show is worth seeing, but now you have to pay for parking! What is that all about? That ruins future visits to the French Market Supper Club for me.

Small showroom so really nice, intimate evening. Very good show, great costumes. Dinner and service were very good.
Starring Peter Mac as Judy Garland
Musical Direction and Piano Accompaniment: Bryan Miller and on Percussion: Kevin Widener.
Peter Mac is excited to see his dream become a reality to be debuting "Judy Garland LIVE!: In Concert" in this new venue built especially for him. So welcome to "Peter Mac's at the French Market," a new showroom dedicated to the preservation of loving tributes to a bygone era.
Mac made his debut as Ms. Garland in 2002 in his autobiographical play, "Judy and Me," which ran for nearly two years at Rose's Turn in New York. It made its Off-Broadway debut in 2008 at St. Luke's Theater, also in New York, where it enjoyed a successful limited run. It toured throughout the East Coast and spawned his cabaret show, "Judy Garland: Live in Concert."
The show has been created and conceived in the mind of Peter Mac, fast becoming known as Los Angeles' premiere Judy Garland Tribute Artist. June 10, 2012 marks what would have been the legendary diva's 90th birthday and appropriately falling on LA PRIDE day.
Valet parking is available for $2.50 in the French Market lot with restaurant validation after 5pm. Street parking is also available in the area.

Rejecting Rejection with author Cynthia Levinson
The Tragic Romance of Rejection by Cynthia Levinson Rejections? Let me count the ways. Not just the number, but the ways. When you're a nonfiction writer, rejection comes in many forms as well as at many times. I won't even go into my first picture book manuscript, Mr. Bellow Lost His Cello, which won a …

Joya De Nicaragua Celebracion Cigars Description
If you like the Joya de Nicaragua Antaño, but are looking for something with a little less punch, Joya De Nicaragua Celebracion cigars are the perfect alternative. Joya De Nicaragua Celebracion cigars are also Nicaraguan puros sporting an all Nicaraguan Habano seed filler & binder with a milder Habano Criollo wrapper presenting a much more mellow, yet equally complex and flavorful medium-bodied smoke. A great cigar for those looking to move to a more full-flavored cigar or cigar smokers who want lots of depth with less edge.

2/7/2007—Conroe Independent School District (CISD) in Conroe, TX has contracted with SASI Consulting to work on the district's emergency response and preparedness programs in conjunction with Harris County Department of Education. Last summer the district received a grant from the United States Department of Education for the purpose.
CISD is one of 74 districts to receive, in total, $23 million in grants from DOE to strengthen emergency response and preparedness. SASI assisted CISD in obtaining its DOE grant back in 2006.
According to the consulting firm, "The Federal Emergency Response and Crisis Management program provides funds to help local education agencies prevent or mitigate, prepare, respond and recover from crises. Funds can be used to train school personnel and students in crisis response; communicate emergency response and reunification procedures to parents and guardians; coordinate with local emergency responders, including fire and police; purchase equipment; and coordinate with groups and organizations responsible for recovery issues, such as health and mental health agencies. This year, school districts must also commit to developing a written plan designed to prepare for a possible infectious disease outbreak, such as influenza pandemic."
CISD will develop its plan over the next year beginning later this month.

Dancing GhostsRate this encounter:
Rhonda -- Union, New Jersey -- October 20, 2011
My girlfriend, Dina, called and told me we were going ghost hunting at a building used by an Elks Lodge. She was told by the bartender, Ron, that he had see an apparition there one evening when he was alone and cleaning up the place. I am a medium as well as psychic and clairvoyant. So armed with my camcorder, we set off to explore this building.
Only the first floor is being used as a business. There are three floors and a basement. At the turn of the century, this place was a speakeasy and a brothel. It has an interesting and somewhat colorful past!
As we started up the stairs, Dina and I felt we were being welcomed and checked out. It was very dark. I was particularly drawn to this small room away from the stairs. There was nothing in it except a table, a sink, and a refrigerator. It was hard to make out everything because of the darkness.
I started the video and got an orb right away. After watching it hover around, I decided to scan the entire room to see if there was any light source that may be causing it. I scanned the entire room, including the ceiling, floor and all four walls. It was so dark, you could not see when I scanned passed Dina and the bartender.
When I returned to where the orb had been, I got a clear video of two ghosts: a male and female who were dancing! Later, we reviewed the video and saw that there was a third ghost floating in and out of the upper left hand corner of the screen.
The naked eye could only make out a red glow where the ghosts where at. But in the video you cab clearly see them. When Ron saw the red glow, he got frightened and bolted! The proof was too much for him.
We continued filming until the ghosts disappeared. We then turned on the lights to make sure that the room was empty. Some people may say that we faked the footage or that is isn't real, but I am amazed by what we captured. Dina and I were already believers, but it certainly convinced Ron for sure!

Well, the East Coast is heading surely into summer after a long winter and a (thankfully) long spring, and as someone who doesn't sleep well in the heat, I'm looking for pajamas and loungewear that are both cute and cool. I can't really sleep with anything long on my legs anyway, so summer pajamas are right up my alley: camisoles, boyshorts, babydolls, and short-sleeved pajamas in soft, breathable fabrics and relaxed silhouettes offer comfortable relief from the heat. Here are some of my favorite styles I've spotted in stores recently– anything catch your eye?
Somewhere Julia Lambert is sniggering "put a bird on it, Sweets", and I KNOW, I have lots of bird stuff in my apartment/lingerie drawer, but whatever. This is light and pretty, and it comes in two versions to accommodate mothers who wear both core and full-bust sizes.
Sometimes I look at satin/silk/lace summer loungewear and think "you are so pretty, and you would make me so sweaty". Even though this chemise features lace, the top is stretch lace and the skirt is soft knit, which I find much more comfortable in warm weather. It's a pretty plus-size option that reminds me of …
… this lovely full-bust stretch lace chemise from Figleaves. I've never tried any of their loungewear, but I'd be really curious to see what the support is like, because the styles are very alluring and feminine. Speaking of supportive nightwear for full-bust sizes…
Bravissimo has a really great range of full-bust nightwear, including some options that are available up to J-cup sizes. While not as lacy or romantic as Figleaves' offerings, the range of simple, colorful camis, night dresses, and tank tops will keep you feeling cool and supported without an underwire.
Shorts and camis not your thing? I'd totally wear this night dress as loungewear to goof around the apartment on a hot summer weekend. Best of all, it's available up to a 38J, offering support to a wide range of full-bust sizes.
I adore my Venus in Play babydoll from Between the Sheets (review here), and I've worn it so much it's nearly on its last legs. With a flattering, flexible fit for small-bust and full-bust sizes alike, this snuggly babydoll is light, soft, and breezy: perfect for a hot Summer night.
One of my favorite new-to-me brands at February's Curve trade show was Dollhouse Bettie. Their in-house designs are simultaneously contemporary and retro-inspired, and they inspire a playful creativity that encourages the wearer to mix and match pieces to suit her personality. The Lotus Blossom collections feature lots of gorgeous pieces (particularly for those who wear petite sizes (and check out these cool snag-proof stockings!)), but I was totally charmed by this babydoll. In stretch lace and sheer mesh, this strapless babydoll mixes sophistication and an effortless, almost beachy sense of relaxation. The Azure colorway is a winner too!
This color will never not remind me of Pistachio Ice Cream. Also this whole set is adorable, I love the sweet lace trim, and Eberjey is the master of comfy, cute jammies.
Navy blue! Polka dots! Ruffles! Sold.
Sometimes simple is super. This classic cami-and-pajama-pant set offers wire-free support up to an H-cup for new mothers and mothers-to-be. The Hotmilk website suggests packing this set in your hospital bag, and I can't help but agree.
I just really love a good, classic night dress. This one, made in New York City by Only Hearts, is beautiful. The soft knit and relaxed silhouette offer comfort, and pretty lace trim adds a little romance.
This right here? My favorite style of pajamas. Available up to a size 5X in multiple colors (and currently on sale for $19.95!), this set would make a great lingerie-drawer staple.
Finally, this one just makes me want to go on vacation. Can't you see it? Relaxing in a beach house, strolling in the waves before breakfast, kicking back to snooze in a hammock with a glass of iced tea…
If you need me, I'll be at my desk. Daydreaming.

New Jersey man surgically attaches iPod to his arm
Thursday 17 May 2012
Professional body piercer Dave Hurban is a man attached to his iPod. Literally.
Hurban, 21, who works in a tattoo parlor in Newfield, New Jersey, implanted four metal studs in the skin of his wrist and secured his iPod to them magnetically.
"I just invented the strapless watch," he said of his Apple Inc device, set to display a clock.
Hurban cheerfully recounted how he mapped out the four corners of the iPod on his arm and then inserted four titanium studs into his skin. Once the incisions healed, he popped on his iPod, which is held in place magnetically.
"It's way simpler than you think it is," said Hurban, who posted his "How To" video on YouTube, where it has been viewed nearly 900,000 times in two weeks.
Hurban, whose other body piercings include two on his lip and one on each ear, said the unusual application was a big hit at a tattoo convention in Baltimore last weekend.
"I must have talked to like 400 people individually,' he said. "Every person I showed, they were like so amazed."

|Look up timekeeper in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
A timekeeper is an instrument or person that measures the passage of time; in the case of the latter, often with the assistance of a clock or stopwatch. In addition, the timekeeper records time, time taken, or time remaining during events such as sports matches.
A timekeeper is often referred to as a time clock, which tracks employee time. Collecting such data gives employers insight into their workforce. They can then make operational decisions to increase productivity and reduce labor costs.

26 May 2010
As I sit inhaling my lunch as well as A Thousand Sisters by Lisa Shannon,
Tears roll down my face.
I inhale, my breath aquiver
And I trust that God has a plan for me.
I have not been drawn to Africa for 15 years for nothing.
My heart is not aching for these strangers of the motherland for no reason.
Africa calls me.
She is connected to me,
Whether or not my feet ever touch her soil.
I do not ache for the world for the sake of being sad.
There is purpose in my sadness,
In my anger,
In my passion.
There has to be.
In the moments I feel helpless,
God whispers to me that I am not.
I may not be able to bring home babies to join my family right now.
I may not be able to travel to this place that tugs at my heart this year.
Or next.
Or ever.
But I am not helpless.
Perhaps my words to my Representatives are lost in a sea of requests.
Perhaps my art postcard won't stand out like I hope and think it will
Amongst thousands of emails and faxed white paper.
Maybe Intel doesn't give a shit that I won't buy their products no mo'
Until they commit to funding conflict free minerals in the Congo.
I cringe at the idea of the laptop I am typing on
Or the cell phone I am chatting on
May contain "blood minerals."
Maybe that doesn't mean that I will just go without modern technology,
But rather bring attention to the public
And lobby these companies to commit to conflict free.
How can they ignore thousands of letters from their consumers?
My efforts just might be in vain.
Does that mean that I should cease making an effort?
How could I?
I shall take the risk
Of being the damper on a perfectly lovely day
When I speak up for the voiceless,
The toils that many would rather not know about
Because knowing is just so heavy.
Perhaps we can be aware, speak up,
And enjoy our blessed lives all at once.
My voice may quiver and shake when I speak up in a crowd
But the alternative of not doing means
I am not following what my heart is telling me to do.
I hope my passion and love speak louder than the shaking in my voice.
These women in Congo
They may never know how much I really care.
The boys in Uganda
Will likely never know I exist,
That I wrote my largest paper last semester
About child soldiers in Africa.
That I cried while I researched
That I ache to go there
And share my love,
Although I have no idea
What it's like to live through such atrocities.
The AIDS orphans in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia,
They don't know I would love to be a mother to them.
As I sit at my computer
I want to do it all.
I want to scoop up the world in a loving embrace
And tell them all that God has a plan.
Does someone who's been through such hell want to hear such words
From a privileged American?
Does someone who lives a privileged life
Want to hear of such atrocities in the world?
Do I speak based on what people want to hear?
I wade through the waters of what is an acceptable
Or welcomed conversation.
Does God really have a plan for me, for them?
It comforts me to hear it, even during the times I don't feel it.
Even when I am hopeless and feeling helpless,
I have to believe it.
Because there is no downside in believing it.

The committee heard testimony from academicians, corporation executives and administration officials on the progress of the superconducting super collider under construction in Texas. The super collider, planned to be the largest in the U.S., would allow physicists to conduct experiments on the nature of matter. The project's cost estimates have risen almost two billion dollars since the planning stages, making some opponents of the project question the tangible benefits to the country of the scientific findings determined by the collider. The committee heard testimony on the progress of construction of the collider, foreign financial contributions to the project, and the project's eventual benefits and costs to the nation. Representatives Frost, Livingston, and Hoagland testified about the superconducting supercollider. close

International news for oil and gas professionals
With activists occupying the US Department of State and protesters taking to streets in several US cities, it is for those of us who survived the political and populist turmoil of the 1960s just like "deja vu all over again."
In its fight against punishing tax hikes, the US oil and gas industry won a round this month. Senate Democrats scuttled at least some industry tax reversals from their proposal for funding a jobs bill.
The essential question the US Department of State must address as it considers the Keystone XL pipeline's cross-border permit application is whether the project is in the national interest of the US, several of the project's supporters said.
Dominion Resources Inc., Richmond, Va., has asked the US Department of Energy for permission to use its Cove Point, Md., LNG import terminal as an export facility as well.
The oil industry will benefit greatly from emerging technologies unveiled during the Wendy Schmidt Oil Cleanup X Challenge in which $1.3 million was awarded to two winning contestants for demonstrating highly efficient methods to recover spilled crude oil from the ocean surface, Shell executives said.
African natural gas that is now being liquefied for export could be redirected to domestic electric power generation as customers in Europe, Asia, and the US exploit shale gas resources in their own countries, experts suggested during a discussion of African energy needs.
The US won't likely meet some specific biofuel mandates under the current Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) by 2022 unless innovative technologies are developed or policies change, the National Research Council (NRC) said on Oct. 4.
A proposed hydraulic fracturing chemical disclosure rule for Texas would help "demystify" the chemicals used and could reassure the public, Andrew Barron, Rice University's chemistry professor, told the Railroad Commission of Texas during an Oct. 5 hearing in Austin, Tex.
Units of Magnum Hunter Resources Corp., Houston, have agreed to provide new processing and transportation services for Marcellus shale gas production in northwestern West Virginia, Magnum Hunter reported.
Tension between Saudi Arabia and Iran, already high, received new strain Oct. 11 with allegations of a foiled plot linked with Iran to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the US and to commit other acts of terrorism.
The Italian government has joined other states in the region raising tension in the Eastern Mediterranean by issuing a diplomatic "demarche" protesting Malta's publication of a tender for oil and gas exploration in areas of the Ionian Sea claimed by Rome.
A long-time Washington, DC, energy observer recommended caution as the Obama administration considered possible responses to an alleged Iran-based conspiracy to assassinate Saudi Arabia's ambassador to the US (OGJ Online, Oct. 11, 2011).
The International Energy Agency, responding to statements by officials of Saudi Aramco, said it is "very important" that oil producers in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) continue to invest in increasing their oil production capacity.

Ninja Theory excited by the Xbox One's unrealised potential
Devil May Cry and Enslaved developer Ninja Theory has expressed their excitement over the potential that the Xbox One represents.
The studio's product manager Dominic Matthews believes that the Xbox One has amazing potential especially with the functionality offered by SmartGlass, Game DVR and Kinect voice control.
He began, "We know what can be done with the technology, and it is impressive, we just need some time for this to be realised in games that will actually be in the hands of players. I personally like the ability to capture your gameplay on the Xbox One, being able to share your game experiences very easily is great and it will make the life of those crazy-combo video makers a lot easier!"
"At the moment it feels like technology that's cool," he continued, "but that hasn't seamlessly worked its way into the way we play games. I'd like to see more games use it in ways that makes playing games more user-friendly, like using one word to access a menu that might otherwise be multiple button presses away."
"Second-screen functionality is also very cool, but again I think it needs time to mature," Matthews added. "We've seen the 'call in an airstrike trick' a few times now and I think we're ready to see something that takes it to a whole new level."
Thanks OXM.
