7 metro Detroit startups advance to finals of Google Demo Day competition
Seven Detroit and Ann Arbor-based startups are one step closer to pitching their business plans to Google.
The seven finalists in the Google Demo Day competition advanced this week. The winning business will have a chance to pitch their startup to Google. Google Demo Day is part of the tech company's Google for Entrepreneurs Program, and competitions are being held across the country. One winner from each city will advance to the finals in Silicon Valley.
The Detroit competition was organized by Grand Circus Detroit.
Earlier this week, 18 semi-finalists were selected by public vote and investor interest, said Kelly LaPierre, director of marketing and communications at Grand Circus.
The finalists are:
- Detroit-based Are You A Human, a tech company that created PlayThru, a program that replaces online annoyances like distorted text and pre-roll video advertisements with games, to block Internet robots and keep users happy.
- Detroit-based Backstitch Inc., a Bizdom startup that lets people build their own view of the Web by automatically bringing together the content from their favorite sites.
- Ann Arbor-based MyFab5 LLC, a community for sharing and discovering restaurants based on the recommendations of other users.
- Detroit-based Foodjunky LLC, a Bizdom website that helps groups place online orders to restaurants by sending emails to each person and allowing each one to choose what they want.
- Detroit-based GreenLancer Energy Inc., a Bizdom Web-based engineering company that helps contractors develop renewable energy projects.
- Detroit-based iRule LLC, a company that created the app iRule, which allows consumers to use smartphones and tablets to control home automation devices such as lights and thermostats, and act as a TV remote. (Its president, Itai Ben-Gal, was a Crain's 40 under 40 in 2012)
- Ann Arbor-based Wisely Inc., an app developing company with a namesake app that analyzes real transaction data from consumers to find the best places to eat and shop around you.
At Wednesday's finalist event, each startup will give a five-minute pitch, followed by three minutes of questions and answers. The investor panel will decide the winner.
The event takes place 5:30-8:30 p.m. at Grand Circus and is open to the public.

MADRID (MarketWatch) -- European stock markets gave up the bulk of the gains seen for much of the session on Tuesday, turning largely negative across the board. The Stoxx Europe 600 index SXXP, -0.46% was flat at 267.92, while the French CAC 40 index PX1, -0.59% fell 0.4% to 3,489.92 and the FTSE 100 index UKX, -0.90% fell 0.2% to 5,890.38. The German DAX 30 index DAX, -0.41% stayed in positive territory, up 0.3% to 7,103.71. Oil stocks were the main drag on the market, with Total SA FP, +1.31% TOT, -0.31% down over 4% as fallout from a gas leak in the North Sea intensifies. Crude prices were off slightly. The banking sector remained firmer. (Updates to include information on Total gas leak)

… because the HDI is basically a measure of how Scandinavian your country is.
That's Bryan Caplan, complaining about something called the Human Development Index, in a piece entitled Against the Human Development Index.
Story here:
A man believed to be a recreational drone operator accidentally crashed a small device onto the White House grounds early Monday, investigators said, briefly triggering a lockdown and reinforcing concerns about security at the executive mansion.
LATER: The inevitable "let's ban drones" discussion is upon us.
EVEN LATER: Sports enthusiasts are clamoring for aerial robots that can record their best moves.
Lexington Green, here:
What if … ?
What would a history of the British Empire look like if it did not use the "rise and fall" metaphor?
What would that history look like if it examined not just the political framework or just the superficial gilt and glitter, or just the cruelty and crimes, but the deeper and more enduring substance?
What if someone wrote a history of the impact of the English speaking people and their institutions (political, financial, professional, commercial, military, technical, scientific, cultural), and the infinitely complex web of interconnections between them, as a continuous and unbroken story, with a past a present … and a future?
In other words, what if we were to read a history that did not see a rising British Empire followed by a falling Empire, then a rising American Empire which displaced it, but an organism which has taken on many forms over many centuries, and on many continents, but is nonetheless a single life?
What if we assume that the British Empire was not something that ended, but that the Anglosphere, of which the Empire was one expression, is something that has never stopped growing and evolving, and taking on new institutional forms?
What if it looked at the unremitting advance, the pitiless onslaught, universal insinuation, of the English speakers on the rest of the world, seizing big chunks of it (North America, Australia), sloshing up into many parts of it and receding again (India, Nigeria, Malaya), carving permanent marks in the cultural landscape they left behind, all the while getting wealthier and more powerful and pushing the frontiers of science and technology and all the other forms of material progress?
What if jet travel and the Internet have at last conquered the tyranny of distance which the Empire Federationists of a century ago dreamed that steam and telegraph cables would conquer? What if they were just a century too early?
I recall musing along the same kind of lines myself, a while back.
The important thing is, this mustn't be advertised first as a plan. If that happens, then all the people who are against the Anglosphere, and who prefer places like Spain and Venezuela and Cuba and Hell, will use their ownership of the Mainstream Media to Put A Stop to the plan. What needs to happen is for us to just do it, and then after about two decades of us having just done it, they'll realise that it is a fate (as the Hellists will describe it) accompli.
Because, guess what, we probably are already doing it.

What the hell was I thinking, putting up this photo of that demo, when I also had this one to show you:
Two men who are, between them, wearing five different items of headgear. The majority of them rather interesting.
Before and after perusing the remains of that demo I chanced upon yesterday, I was photographing photographers. Here are a few of them:
As you can see from the top left snap, he is photoing Westminster Abbey, and those two dramatic crouching shots, top middle and top right, are of photographers wanting to get the upper reaches rather than the lower reaches of Westminster Abbey in the background behind their friends.
Several quite good additions to the Interesting Hats sub-directory there, especially the gent, middle left, who looks to me like he's in The Hunt For Red October. Is he being post-modern and ironic? Or does he, perchance, actually mean it? Either way, I don't like it. I mean, do people now wander around London with swastikas in their hats? But, if you were guessing who the spy was, you'd have to pick the one in the Union Jack hat.
The lady bottom middle is a bit out of focus. But, her hat gets her included nevertheless.
And the gent at the bottom left is not very bald, but he is a bit. He makes it into that sub-directory.
Today, a fine looking day, a day in which many were to be seen wearing both gloves and sunglasses, I went awandering, down Victoria Street to Parliament Square, and then on across the River.
And in Parliament Square, I chanced upon a demo. I hope to do a longer bit at Samizdata, hopefully tomorrow, about this demo. In the meantime, here is a little horizontality, helpfully laid on by the demonstrators:
Click to get the original bigger picture.
If you want further thoughts from me about "that fatuous construct of political malcontents" called real democracy, follow that link.
And see also what I put in this piece about the Charlie Hebdo demo in Trafalgar Square:
… this was not your usual demo, the sort of demo perpetrated by the demonstrating classes ...
Today's demo was exactly your usual demo. Here is a report of what they were trying to do, that being something to do with "Occupy". From where I was standing, they failed.
I couldn't find mainstream media coverage about this demo between this afternoon and now, which could just mean that there was lots and I didn't find it. Comments on that very welcome.
LATER: Here is an Evening Standard report. It seems that what I saw was a failed Occupy demo, bolted onto the end of a somewhat more successful CND demo against Trident.
ALSO: Daily Mail.
Since it's Friday, here is a picture I took of the back of someone's jacket on Waterloo Bridge last Monday:
Click on that to get the original big picture.
I've already noted drones being used to take photos, and to save lives (although that is only being worked on). Now, here is a story about drones being used to smuggle drugs. One of these drones crashed, which is how they know. The drugs were too heavy. Man.
Is there anything, as Instapundit would ask, that drones can't do? During the next few years, we're probably going to find out.
LATER: Proposed State Legislation May Limit Drone Facial Recognition Use
This morning I had fun keeping half an eye on one of those Big Bash 20/20 games they are having just now over in Oz.
This morning's hero was a certain Jordan Silk of the Sydney Sixers, who slogged five such boundaries against the Sydney Thunder. And thanks to the www, I immediately learned about what a long neck the man has.
Below, on the left, Jordan Silk, and on the right, former England bowler Gladstone Small:
Silk has a huge neck, but Small has no neck at all. I imagine the (cricket part of the) internet is awash with pictures of these two guys, side by side.
The game was what they call these days a roller coaster ride. One moment half of Sydney was cheering. Next moment it was the other half cheering. Thunder looking like walking it, with the sixers on seventy something for 5 after 13 overs. Then someone is reminded of his team's name and hits three consecutive sixes to swing it the Sixers' way. But the Sixers still need way over fifty off the last three overs. In over 18, they get 25! But, next (penultimate) over: 1, 4, W, 1, 1, 1. Thunder look like winners. Sixers still need 23 of just the one last over. Someone called Lalor then comes on to bowl the last over, with bowling figures so far of 3 overs 1 maiden (a maiden in 20/20 being a miracle) 6 runs 4 wickets. And Lalor then goes for 23, and the Sixers win on the last ball. Jordan Silk and his big neck score two sixes off balls 2 and 3 of the final over. But Silk gan only get a single off ball 4, which swings the match back towards Thunder. But then, a tailender, needing 8 off two balls, promptly hits two fours, from his second and third balls faced.
Quite a game.
The one thing I really do not like about cricket writing is whether to put two or 2, four or 4, six or 6, twenty or 20, etcetera. Comments about that, anyone?
At this blog, I am finding my one-a-day habit quite easy to stick with. Part of this, I think, is that the penalty (in my mind) of failing to do something today is (in my mind) very large, by which I mean very large when set beside the effort of doing something (which can be something very easy to do).
Most people talk about habits and how you get into them as if they are all about, well, habit. The brain is automatically triggered to do whatever it is, whenever, each day, or whenever you have just done something else. You lock your door when you leave your home when nobody else is there. After dinner, you immediately wash up. Whatever. It becomes painful to neglect such habits. And there is, I'm sure, plenty of truth to such notions.
But the relationship between cost and benefit is also significant, regardless of mere mental triggers. The longer you have been able to stick with a good habit, the worse it feels to break it, because of all that past investment. On the other hand, the penalty for sticking with a bad habit (like me failing, yet again, to do a Samizdata posting after a longish dry spell there) is not great. Percentage-wise it is tiny. Instead of your dry spell lasting twenty days, it lasts twenty one days. Big deal.
This is surely part of why getting out of a bad habit is very hard, at first, and getting into a good habit is hard, at first. The prices of each particular failure are small, at first. But as the good habit persists, the price of a failure to maintain it rises, while the cost of maintaining it stays the same, or (because of the mental trigger effect) actually falls. (You get, as the saying goes, into the swing of it.)
Talking about "past investment" in a habit sounds like the "sunk investment fallacy". This is where you persist in investing in something not because the future investing you do will be profitable, but because of all the investing you have already done, even though future investment will be lost also. But the reason why there is a special name for this error is that the sunk investment "fallacy" feels like it is true even when it isn't. The label exists because the error is so tempting, and consequently so common. If you do not persist, all that past investment will feel wasted. And of course, if continuing to "invest" in the habit will actually be beneficial (if the habit would be worth starting now even if you hadn't already started it), then you really would be wasting all that past investment, if you let the habit slip.
I am not sure about this, and am not confident that I have expressed this very well, perhaps because I have it a bit wrong. But that is the sort of thing that this blog is for. I post half-baked thoughts and thereby get to bake them a bit more.
One obvious complaint about this kind of thinking is that blogging is supposed to be fun. Well, for me, it is fun, when I can make myself do it. Above all, it is fun when I have done it. So, although not all aspects of doing it are fun, it is still fun, mostly.
Here, at the end:
You don't always have to understand exactly what's going on to enjoy what you're seeing.
Words to live by, in all manner of situations.
That was said about this fun and games stuff, but I was saying much the same to myself as I watched the fabulously entertaining highlights of the semi-finals of the F(ootball) A(merica) Cup, or whatever they call it over there. A great come-back and extra time win by Seattle. A crushing victory by New England, and accusations that they cheated by softening their balls. What more could you ask for?
Well, what you could ask for is a duet of monodirectional brackets in the heading. But, no need, because there it is.
This posting is a bit of an experiment, because the two pictures embedded in it may not be small enough, to start with, and may have to be made smaller, after all those of you who hang on my every posting, and see it immediately, have seen it immediately. Also, I want to put them on both sides of the posting, and that may not work either. So, patience everyone, and be ready to endure graphic juggling, because these are the kind of things that my posting software is bad at showing me. I have to see evertything in situ, to be sure.
So, to get to the point, what this is about is the way that very small pictures sometimes look quite different to the exact same pictures, but larger, a theme also explored in this posting. And the idea is that the two pictures will go, on the left and on the right, at the top of this paragraph. De-dum de-dum de-dum, computer crap computer crap. Well, touch wood, this is working. There was a bit of fiddling with the instructions about putting pictures on the right or on the left, but I finally cracked that and made it happen.
The point of all this is that the pictures, when small, look quite similar. The only very obvious difference is that on the left there are rather more verticals in the railings to be seen. But click on the pictures and get them ten times larger, and you will see that the focussing is quite different. In the one on the left, the railings are the front are in focus and the Shard is barely discernible behind them. On the right, the big picture shows the Shard quite clearly while the railings are very blurry. Okay, the small pictures are not identical, and alert viewers may have detected the very difference that I say is so unclear in the small pictures, but the small pictures are much more similar to each other than the large ones are.
One of the many morals to be drawn from this is that the bigger the screen on your camera is the better, because the bigger the picture, the easier it is to tell exactly what that picture looks like. This is yet another reason why people who take pictures with tablets, the cameras with the biggest screens of all, are being very sensible. They are the ones who know exactly what they are getting, exactly when they are getting it.
In the end, the only cock-up that early readers were subjected to was that in the heading, I at first put that the Shard was in front of the railings rather than behind them.
At that demo a week ago today, there were, of course, and abundance of smartphones being used to soak up snaps:
And there were tablets being used as well:
But more intriguingly, and this was a first for me, I saw smartphones …:
… and tablets …:
… being used actually to demonstrate. And as you can see, I wasn't the only one who was interested.
I'm not sure what this means. I simply note that it was happening.
When it comes to Micklethwait's Laws, the best one undoubtedly is and will always be Micklethwait's Law of Negotiated Misery.
But there is also a Micklethwait's Law of Shelves. On the face of it, Micklethwait's Law of Shelves is not that fundamental, but, writing about it now, I do think it explains quite a lot about the world, and about why there is so much stuff in the world, clogging it up. It is a law that, unlike with (so far as I am aware) Micklethwait's Law of Negotiated Misery, many others have discovered the truth of, even if I've not been able to find it spelt out in so many words on the www. Micklethwait's (or Whoever's) Law of Shelves states that …:
… there is always room for more shelves.
That's my bedroom. Imagine what the rest of my place is like.
Sadly Jacob Rees-Mogg is not taking part, his cat wasn't feline up to it. The big pussy. ...
Etcatera, etcatera.
Guido keeps going on about the Guidoisation of politics. But he, it would appear, is on the receiving end of the ever rising tide of internet cat references.
Meanwhile, another outing here for the only cat reference I saw at the Charlie Hebdo demo in Trafalgar Square last Sunday.
Guido has of course been all over that story.
I've just been listening to Christopher Hitchens reading out what is apparently one of the chapters of his book God Is Not Great, and there is a cat reference in that also. Although down on dogs, it seems that the Muslims have tended, historically, to be nicer to cats than the Christians, because Christians have been in the habit of associating cats with the Devil.
Good grief! More Guido moggy-blogging.

Product Reviews
This is great for dogs that like to sit outside but keeps them from laying in the dirt or where there may be ants, etc. It's a plastic type material so very easy to hose down. It's also somewhat breathable so it's probably not that hot for the dogs when they're out on a nice sunny day.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Good
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Very nice quality

At the Mariposa Center for Girls we have the space for a large children's library and have been working very hard to stock our shelves! However, even with all the books they need, the girls still have difficultly choosing what to read or finding information needed for school projects. We are currently looking for funding to employ a full time librarian to serve as a homework helper and a research assistant. Additionally, she will be able to foster a lifelong love of learning in the Mariposas!
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
The Mariposa DR Foundation has been working very hard to create a youth library, but we are finding that even when the girls have access to the books they need they are still unable to choose books at their level. This means the girls are not improving their reading skills because they are either reading at a level too high or too low. Additionally, when the Mariposas are asked to complete research for school they are confused about where to begin and need significant assistance.
How will this project solve this problem?
By funding this project, the Mariposa DR Foundation will be able to hire and employ a full-time librarian. This individual will provide the girls with the critical reading skills they need to continue to succeed in their studies as well as teach the skills and strategies needed in higher education. Additionally, a librarian would be able to evaluate the reading levels of all the girls to provide them with reading help and suggestions to become better readers.
Potential Long Term Impact
By fostering a love of reading we are ensuring that our girls will be lifelong learners. Their reading levels and reference skills will increase, and the success they experience in school will motivate them to continue their education. The girls will also be able to see the value of reading and pass that love on to their younger siblings, which will ensure that even more children in the community are literate and continuing their educations in an effort to end generational poverty.

1971 Chevrolet Corvette LS5 convertible with hardtop. This was a body off restoration a couple of years ago by a respected Corvette shop in NH (35 year plus history of corvette restorations) and is a #2 condition car. As a #s matching vette, it is a perfect platform to take to the next level of competition and has some rare options (try and find another big block convertible with rear window defogger). The car has been traced back to 1973 and I have met with several of the owners to discuss the history of the car. I am open to sharing more with serious inquires. After several years with this beauty, I am ready to work on other projects. All extra parts will go with the car. Please note the following information to help aid your understanding of the vehicle and includes production volume for 1971. This is a private sell and will consider some trades and cash. Call to inquire. Vince

Alfred Noyes
At Dawn
O Hesper-Phosphor, far away
Shining, the first, the last white star,
Hear'st thou the strange, the ghostly cry,
That moan of an ancient agony
From purple forest to golden sky
Shivering over the breathless bay?
It is not the wind that wakes with the day;
For see, the gulls that wheel and call,
Beyond the tumbling white-topped bar,
Catching the sun-dawn on their wings,
Like snow-flakes or like rose-leaves fall,
Flutter and fall in airy rings;
And drift, like lilies ruffling into blossom
Upon a golden lake's unwrinkled bosom.
Are not the forest's deep-lashed fringes wet
With tears? Is not the voice of all regret
Breaking out of the dark earth's heart?
She too, she too, has loved and lost; and we—
We that remember our lost Arcady,
Have we not known, we too,
The primal greenwood's arch of blue,
The radiant clouds at sunrise curled
Around the brows of the golden world;
The marble temples, washed with dew,
To which with rosy limbs aflame
The violet-eyed Thalassian came,
Came pitiless, only to display
How soon the youthful splendour dies away;
Came, only to depart
Laughing across the gray-grown bitter sea?
For each man's life is earth's epitome,
And though the years bring more than aught they take,
Yet might his heart and hers well break
Remembering how one prayer must still be vain,
How one fair hope is dead,
One passion quenched, one glory fled,
With those first loves that never come again.
How many, how many generations,
Have heard that sigh in the dawn,
When the dark earth yearns to the unforgotten nations
And the old loves withdrawn,
Old loves, old lovers, wonderful and unnumbered
As waves on the wine-dark sea,
'Neath the tall white towers of Troy and the temples that slumbered;
In Thessaly?
From the beautiful palaces, from the miraculous portals,
The swift white feet are flown!
They were taintless of dust, the proud, the peerless Immortals
As they sped to their loftier throne!
Perchance they are there, earth dreams, on the shores of Hesper,
Her rosy-bosomed Hours,
Listening the wild fresh forest's enchanted whisper,
Crowned with its new strange flowers;
Listening the great new ocean's triumphant thunder
On the stainless unknown shore,
While that perilous queen of the world's delight and wonder
Comes white from the foam once more.
When the mists divide with the dawn o'er those glittering waters,
Do they gaze over unoared seas—
Naiad and nymph and the woodland's rose-crowned daughters
And the Oceanides?
Do they sing together, perchance, in that diamond splendour,
That world of dawn and dew,
With eyelids twitching to tears and with eyes grown tender,
The sweet old songs they knew,
The songs of Greece? Ah, with harp-strings mute do they falter
As the earth like a small star pales?
When the heroes launch their ship by the smoking altar
Does a memory lure their sails?
Far, far away, do their hearts resume the story
That never on earth was told,
When all those urgent oars on the waste of glory
Cast up its gold?
Are not the forest fringes wet
With tears? Is not the voice of all regret
Breaking out of the dark earth's heart?
She too, she too, has loved and lost; and though
She turned last night in disdain
Away from the sunset-embers,
From her soul she can never depart;
She can never depart from her pain.
Vainly she strives to forget;
Beautiful in her woe,
She awakes in the dawn and remembers.

Claire Danes Preps For Halloween and a Baby With Hugh Dancy
Claire Danes and her husband, Hugh Dancy, got into the Halloween spirit yesterday when they purchased two large pumpkins from a market in Toronto. She's spending time in Canada with Hugh, who is on location filming his upcoming NBC show, Hannibal. They're preparing for more than just the holiday — Claire's is expecting their first child, too!
It has been quite the year for Claire so far. She took home the Emmy last month for outstanding actress in a drama series for Homeland, which is in its second season. Despite starring on the hit show, which aired the third episode of the current season last night, Claire is the subject of a viral video featuring a montage of her now famous crying scenes.

His short brown hair was matted to his sweaty brow.The summer weather had been rarely cruel so far, but today was absolutely unforgiving; it was a scorching 98 degrees, outside and, unfortunately for Kenneth and Frank, inside as well. Having no air conditioner, they were forced to resort to oscillating fans, which offered barely a shred of comfort. Frank looked just as uncomfortable and sweaty as his friend, only ten fold.

Around the Web: What Marketers Can
Learn From Real-Time Sharing
By The Editors
US consumers are using mobile devices now more than ever to share opinions about products and brands, but often through "dark" social sharing channels. Dark social outlets such as email, instant messaging and texting are often the main source of real-time sharing, accounting for 59 percent of content-sharing activity. "Mobile marketers can take advantage of all this dark social sharing that's happening in email, text messaging and IM by focusing on distributing offers, promotions and coupons and providing customer service that might make the difference in capturing a sale," said Eric Bader, chief marketing officer of RadiumOne.

Your B2B Marketing Strategy?
By Jared Smith, Content Marketing Manager
The business to business (B2B) space is a notoriously difficult one in which to market. It's an entirely different process than marketing to consumers. Instead of appealing to just one buyer and having to emphasize the right benefits, you're often dealing with buying committees. In addition to the challenges of identifying and engaging with buying committees, B2B marketers face long sales cycles, convoluted buying processes and a demand for copious amounts of information. Strategic market insights can help shorten the sales cycle, produce content that drives conversations and generally help companies develop a better relationship with the market.
Gridiron Marketing Season: 3 Tips for
Bringing Home the "W"
By Joe Jordan, Vice President of Panel Operations
Fall is upon us. Labor Day is now a distant memory, flip flops have been moved to the back of the closet and football engulfs television Thursday through Monday.
Marketers are excited for this fall football season as well. The Super Bowl is fast approaching, and the holiday shopping season is right around the corner—all prime times for marketing and advertising. Marketers may not realize it but like coaches, they too need a playbook that will help put their teams in a position to bring home that big bowl victory this season. But what goes into a marketing playbook and where do you start?
Email Sampling Is Dead: Long Live The Web (and mobile)!
by Matt Dusig, Co-founder & CEO
Every once in a while, I like to rock the boat. With this blog title, it seems I've just predicted the demise of one of the core functions of sample delivery and it's not only a challenge to the MR industry, but to uSamp as well. This doesn't mean we'll stop recruiting panelists into surveys using our email sampling systems — that would mean cutting off the lifeline of the millions of panelists that come through our systems every month. But, having experienced many technological changes in my life, I have become more adept at recognizing the decline of traditional methodologies. And in this case, the next casualty of panelist recruitment and engagement will be email delivery.
Technology eclipsing itself is nothing new. Look at the terrestrial radio industry and the constant decline of listeners and advertising revenue to online and satellite streams. Over-the-air broadcast radio still works and millions still use it, but it's on the decline and the industry is undoubtedly changing forever.
Market researchers may not being dealing with the loss of radio listeners, but they can certainly learn a lesson from their peers in the music business. The writing is on the wall: Over time, email-based sampling and recruitment will diminish in value.
When I started in sampling in 2000, email response rates were high and email marketing was a valuable way to drive web traffic for lead generation and monetization. But today, just like radio, response rates for email continue to decline.
So what's next?

George VI, King of Great Britain
Library of Congress
George VI was king of Great Britain from 1937 until his death in 1952. His daughter, Elizabeth, succeeded him as monarch.
George became king after his older brother, Edward VIII, abdicated the throne to marry "the woman I love,'' Wallis Simpson, a divorced American. The leaders of the British government and the Church of England had told Edward that he had to choose between his throne and Mrs. Simpson.
The central event of George's reign was World War II, in which he helped rally the citizenry with a series of dramatic radio addresses.
Behind those speeches was a struggle of different kind, George's lifelong effort to overcame a severe stammer. "The King's Speech,'' released in 2010, shows George, then Prince Albert, (played by Colin Firth), working with an uncredentialled, unorthodox speech therapist from Australia named Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush). The movie tells the story of the unlikely friendship between the two men and describes how Mr. Logue helped the king find his voice and his confidence.
George was the last British monarch to be crowned with the title of King Emperor. As the obituary in The New York Times noted: "the title of Emperor went with the granting of independence to India. His reign marked the end of an era of British power."

Typical of many companies, Falken Tire's data center over time became home to a hodgepodge of storage vendors, Braico said. "They had IBM, Apple, NetApp, StorageTek, G-Tech and EMC Symmetrix storage," he said.
Falken Tire decided to migrate to two EMC VNX 5300 arrays with a total 400 TB of capacity, Braico said.

An old wooden carving known as "the Sacred Cod" hangs in the Massachusetts State House.
That figurine has stared down at lawmakers for more than two centuries as a reminder of how important cod fishing has been to New England, where generations have made a living by casting their nets out at sea.
"It's the only job I've ever had," said Al Cattone, a Gloucester fisherman, who - like his father and grandfather before him - spent more than 30 years braving the Atlantic's rough waters and cold winds in search of fish.
"It's not so much a job as it is an identity." But Gloucester, like many coastal towns, now faces the largest cuts ever to the region's commercial fishing industry. An advisory council voted Wednesday to slash cod catch rates by 77% in the Gulf of Maine, a region roughly the size of Indiana that extends from Cape Cod up through Nova Scotia.
That move, analysts predict, is expected to decimate fishing communities across the region and have a domino effect on seafood processors, wholesalers, distributors and retailers who all make a living off the water.
"The impact will be severe," said John Bullard, the regional administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, who voted in favor of the cuts.
"It wasn't easy, but it was necessary."
Read - Historic cod fishing cuts threaten centuries-old industry in New England
Hi, thanks for sharing. fishing rod http://money-lenders.com.sg/
Ban those giant floating fish harvesting barges. Have the coast guard sink any non american or canadian vessel fishing in our waters. Problem solved.
Sad story... and one becoming increasingly familiar in diverse fisheries around the globe. In this case, while a few relatively small pockets of fish in healthy numbers remain, overall cod numbers are way down. The cod recovery is taking longer than expected because at this point, the food chain is out of whack. Lobsters and small fish that the adult cod used to feed on have soared in population, and they're preying on cod eggs and juvenile cod. Generations of overfishing took a toll, to be sure. But the real culprit is unchecked and unsustainable human population growth.
