Worldwide domination: Rice Alliance named No. 1 university business incubator

Rice University's Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship is at the top of its game — it was just named the No. 1 university incubator in the world.
The University Business Incubator Index, a new study group, released its first ranking of the best business incubators affiliated with universities around the world. More than 150 incubators across 22 countries were analyzed according to a set of 50 performance indicators that measured the value the incubator created for startup companies.
The Rice Alliance beat out all of the competitors, including Stanford University's Venture Lab and the University of Oxford's Entrepreneurs Incubation Centre.
Brad Burke, the Rice Alliance's managing director, credits winning the top spot to the incubator's decision to focus on technology early on. When the Rice Alliance started in 2000, he explained that most business incubators at universities partnered solely with a business school. However, the Rice Alliance chose to partner with the Rice's business school, engineering school and natural science school. These partnerships gave entrepreneurs access to the latest technologies being developed by Rice students and faculty, and entrepreneurs have been able to lead many of these technologies to commercialization.
The Rice Alliance's strong partnerships with multiple schools will also help it remain the No. 1 university incubator in the world, Burke told the HBJ.
"We are just at the tip of the iceberg," he said. "There is a lot of great technology and innovations created here by the Rice faculty, and there is great potential to launch these technologies even more than we have in the past."
So far, the Rice Alliance has assisted more than 1,400 startup companies, helped these companies raise more than $2.7 billion in funding and helped the companies create more than 10,000 jobs.
And although the Rice Alliance is affiliated with Rice University, it is open to all entrepreneurs looking to take advantage of its resources, such as the Rice Business Plan competition and technology venture forums.

Sound Devicesâ New 664 Production Mixer Makes Pro Audio Debut at AES 2012
Flagship Mixer Features an Unprecedented Amount of I/O Connectivity and Recording Flexibility
SAN FRANCISCO, OCTOBER 23, 2012 â Following its recent international introduction at IBC 2012, Sound Devicesâ 664 Production Mixer will make its first professional audio debut at AES 2012 (Booth 934). Sound Devices, experts in audio and video products for field production, has designed the 664 to build upon the powerful features of the companyâs best-selling line of field and production mixers. This new flagship mixer offers expanded input/output connectivity and recording capabilities, along with greater flexibility and ease-of-use. Its six input channels have dedicated controls for trim, fader, pan and PFL. The inputs and four output buses are all recordable, for a total of 10 tracks of recording.
The 664 contains six ultra-low noise, high-dynamic range and transformer-less preamps, which accept mic- or line-level signals and include analog peak limiters, high-pass filters, input trim control and direct outputs on every channel. Featuring full analog audio paths for high-performance audio and superb power efficiency, the 664 also has numerous digital capabilities. Inputs 1 and 6 can be selected as AES3 or AES42 inputs for digital microphones, each with its own SRC for simplicity in system clocking.
The analog output compliment includes four output buses. The L and R buses are on balanced XLR, 10-Pin and TA-3M connectors; unbalanced on TA-3M or 3.5mm connectors. Secondary output buses X1 and X2 are available on balanced TA-3M connectors. Inputs and buses can be routed to four AES3 connections for eight digital outputs on the XLR and 10-pin connectors.
The 664 can record up to 10 tracks of 16- or 24-bit broadcast WAV files to SD and/or CompactFlash cards. All inputs and outputs are individually selectable for recording, enabling the mixer to record all 10 channels of audio. With its dual card slots, content can be recorded to either or both cards simultaneously, with the added ability to assign different tracks to each memory card.
The 664 includes a high-precision, Ambient-based time-code generator/reader for multi-camera and double-system sound applications. All common production time-code rates and modes are supported.
Sound Devices also introduces a companion accessory, the CL-6 Input Expander, for the 664 Production Mixer. It is designed specifically to add six analog line-level inputs to the mixer. With the CL-6 attached, the direct output connectors are available as inputs, controlled by faders located on the CL-6 front panel. The CL-6 also offers additional LED output metering and duplicate-recording transport controls. With the 664 Production Mixer connected to the CL-6 Input Expander, users can now record all 12 input channels and four outputs, for a total of 16 tracks.
The 664 features an abundance of connectivity options in addition to the main audio I/O, catering to the complex productions becoming more common today. It has expanded return-monitoring capabilities, with three separate camera returns as well as a dedicated private-line communications connection. The 664, like the 552, has a built-in slate microphone and tone oscillator, and includes a dedicated input for an external slate mike. The internal or external slate mike can be routed to either outputs or to the dedicated comm output. The 664 can easily build a private-line communication with a comm return input, separate from camera returns.
âOur customers are looking for more inputs, connectivity, flexibility and power in the field,â says Jon Tatooles, managing director, Sound Devices. âWe have taken the strengths and knowledge gained from our existing mixer line and continue to evolve the technology to meet the growing needs of sound mixers. The 664 is how we see the future of high-performance field mixers; they need to have recording capabilities in order to be a fully functional tool in the field.â
Sound Devicesâ 664 features an intuitive LCD menu enabling users to simply adjust input settings. It also offers the capability to see how an input is routed and connected when its settings are altered. The LCD display also allows users to quickly activate the individual tracks that are to be recorded. The Sound Devices 664 features dedicated front panel controls for gain, trim and faders, as well as full-size XLR connectors. The mixer is powered by five AA batteries or external DC power.
The 664, like all Sound Devices products, is designed to withstand the physical and environmental extremes of field production. Its top and bottom chassis panels are made from molded, metalized carbon fiber for superior durability and weight reduction. The chassis panels are also gasketed for water resistance.

N. Huntingdon man says he didn't buy kids booze, pleads no contest
A North Huntingdon man accused of providing alcohol for an underage drinking party last summer pleaded no contest Monday.
But Steven Mathew Greenawalt, 30, of Clay Pike Road, told Judge Debra Pezze that he did not buy alcohol for the group.
"I admit that I know they had it," Greenawalt said.
He was sentenced to serve two years' probation on charges of corruption of minors and furnishing alcohol to minors. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt, but it is treated as such for purposes of sentencing.
Pezze said that if Greenawalt has no problems during the first year of probation, she would close the case early.
Police and paramedics responded on July 23 to a garage underneath a banquet hall at the Shirley Funeral Home on Clay Pike Road.
They found a 16-year-old male, identified in court documents as B.O., who was unresponsive and covered in vomit.
The teen was taken to Excela Health Westmoreland Hospital in Greensburg and later flown to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh.
An estimated 30 to 40 juveniles were at the party, according to police.
A teen identified in court documents as J.S. told police that Greenawalt had provided them with vodka.
Pezze acknowledged that Greenawalt called police to aid the unresponsive teen.
"That's why he didn't die," Pezze said. "It's admirable that you took those steps and ... literally saved his life."

the restaurant is in a transition period where they are waiting for the liquor license to get approved. Once that happens, they will be able to offer their other menus and drinks and the place should take off. Chef is very good.

I hope the restaurant is successful because it is a place I plan to return to in the near future - it was that good! Having a former White House chef is an added plus because his stories are fascinating and his culinary skill is beyond reproach.
From Our Editors
For more than 27 years, the customers of NJ's Tavern & Restaurant have relished its elevated tavern fare. They dunk french dip sandwiches—stuffed with thin sheets of roast beef—into steaming bowls of au jus, or sink their teeth into juicy Monster burgers tamed by the restaurant's special sauce. The kitchen crafts pizzas with seasonal organic vegetables and infuses the crusts with parmesan. On weekends, diners choose from a brunch menu with both sweet and savory options, including pancakes, crème brûlée french toast, and frittatas.

I didnt have many friends growing up. I was pretty shy. I find it easier to make friends as I get older which I think is the opposite of most people's situation. I tend to have different groups of friends and they normally dont co-mingle. I have my bff who I moved to Florida partly to be closer to her and her family. If I had an emergency that is who I would call and she would probably call me if she had one. Usually when I hang out with her its just us and her family, sometimes we hang out with one of her other friends M who I have hung out with alone also but I wouldnt consider M a close friend. I have my friends that I go to Disney with. I am pretty close to some of them and stay at some of thier places when I am in town. I have brought one of my non disney friends to meet them once or twice. I have some friends I used to work with and have since moved on to other jobs. We get together once or twice a month for lunch. I have one friend that still lives in my old town that I usually talk to atleast once a day even if its just a text. And I still have other friends back home that I get together with when I come back to visit
I'd have to say zero, too. There is no one that I would call in the middle of the night, other than two of my sisters. They are my best friends, but they live in Mississippi and Washington.
Not including DH who is my closest friend, I have about 3 close friends and about 15 other regular friends. My husband has to network a lot for his job, so I always find myself meeting new people from all walks of life. It's very fun
Best friends, the kind who know you inside and out? 4. These are the ones I would call with a major crisis or celebration. Good friends, to go out to lunch/see a movie with? Probably about 5. I have lots of other people I call "friends" meaning we enjoy talking to each other at events, know what's going on in each other's lives, hang out at work, etc...but we wouldn't necessarily hang out with only each other.
A handfull of really 'best friends' and about a dozen good friends. Then there are my 'old friends' with whom I keep in touch and could establish a best friend relationship with if they weren't far far away. "Make new friends but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold." Tonight, we're having a Christmas party with about 30 of our friends. Same group that we've partied with for 30+ years.
This made me laugh!!! My ultimate BF is my hubby I have one VERY BF, and we would be there for the other in a nano second!!! One of her Christmas gifts from me is a sign that says, "When you're in jail, a good friend will be trying to bail you out. A best friend will be in the cell next to you saying, 'Damn, that was fun." I have many good friends.
Around here, where we live? The "friendly" midwest? None. I have no one to really do things with or to rely on in an emergency. (Honestly, the latter scares me.) Lived here 20+ years and people have no interest in being friends with anyone outside their family or people they went to elementary school with. Yes, people have told me that point blank, to my face. Amazingly enough, they also have no problem asking me to do things FOR them, they just don't want me to do things WITH them. Over the years, I've had friends with others who've moved here, but they've all moved away and at this point, I've given up. I get it, folks: if you aren't born here, you're invisible. The friends I do have are people who live elsewhere, that I met via the internet or on vacations. I also have friends from other places we lived 20+ years ago. This summer, we actually took a vacation and went back to see some of them. It was so nice to spend time with people who give a crap about me. When I'm in a detached mood, I find it fascinating that I'm still friends with people I haven't seen in many years or that I meet people on vacation, make friends easily and quickly, and still have relationships with them years later while the people I see on a regular basis have no interest in being friends with me because they haven't known me since birth. I'm tired of being lonely but I see no way to change it because I can't change other people. Being lonely is reason #7864 that I want to get outta here.
I have a nice group of female friends. Some from HS or college, some from jobs, some from our kids at one time being friends. I couldn't function without them. My husband, kids, parents...they are all great. But I need variety, I can't help it.
I would say 0. I have work friends, and sometimes we do hang out outside of work, but since one of us moved away, our little group dynamic has changed. Could I call on them in the middle of the night? Probably, but would I WANT to? No, not really. I do have old friends that thanks to FB, we have gotten together a few times, and have gone on a girls weekend (this was our 3rd year). I'm ok with it; my family and work keep me busy and tired.
First, you don't want to try to enter a group where everyone has known each other for 20, 30, 40 years. They have a bond you'll never be a part of and they have a language you'd never understand. People who MARRY one of them have a hard time with it. You may learn that Mark is called Chris...you may even learn that heis also called Lou under certain circumstances...but never called Peter by anyone but Cathy...but you weren't there to learn it at the time and understand the whole thing. You might be confused when, after five years, you hear one say to another, "E" and everyone bursts out laughing...because it was a joke that developed thirty years ago, but nobody has brought it up in ten. People who are lucky/unlucky enough to be friends with the same people they've known their whole lives really don't need more friends. They have all the friends they need and possibly all the friends they could handle. However, most people are normal people and do not fit into this category. Most people have friends who come and go over the course of a lifetime. Join a group. Take a class. You will meet people.
I have a best friend but she lives states away and our relationship is really on a strain lately. I don't really have any friends and it upsets me. I'm very social and outgoing and people love talking to me, but I don't know why they never "stick." I miss having a group of friends. ETA: I do have a wonderful family though!
Yep, zero friends here too... DH and I are really close and love doing things together. As for friends, neither of us have any, and we're ok with that. We relish our alone time, and really prefer that over any social event. diznee25
DH is my very best friend. I also have a best friend that I either talk to or text every day. I also have two other "call in the middle of the night" friends that I talk to at least once a week.
Maybe 1-4 even then, I see them rarely. Perhaps once a year for most of them, more often for the 1. I have had a lot of acquaintances since I have had kids. Lots of homeschool moms, lots of activity related chatting types, but almost no one I have done anything with outside of these events. I know it is my issue, but I just don't seem to meet any people that I truly click with. I also don't like the area I live in, and when we had kids, we lost huge groups of people who were still living the party life. Haven't really recovered.
3 absolute best friends that I could call in the middle of the night and they'll be there. I have, and they were-and I've done the same for them. 2 of those ladies I've known since kindergarten, and the other since our first day of high school. 2 other gals that I'm extremely close to at work. We've gone on several work trips together, regularly get together socially, one is my son's Godmother. We all talk and text several times a week in addition to seeing each other at work. Probably another 4-5 that are more "regular" friends. We are in a book club together, and 1 I was really close to in high school but we've drifted apart a bit while still staying in each other's lives. It's funny. I'm incredibly introverted, painfully shy with horrible social anxiety. So I think once I feel comfortable with people I'm not letting them go!
Let's see: DFi is my best friend-- but I'm not going to count him. 2 really good girlfriends, 4 good guy friends. So that makes 6. I have a handful of acquaintances. Honestly, I'm happy to just be with DFi as he truly is my best friend.

Duluth, Minn - Among those putting to foot to pavement during Grandma's Marathon weekend is UMD star Sam Rivard.
The Oak Grove, Minnesota native reached nationals during the outdoor season as a freshman, won the mile at the Indoor Nationals in March and among many other honors, she was named the NSIC's Newcomer of the Year and the Central Region Track Athlete of the Year. She has run the full for fun, but told us she decided to treat herself by running in the half marathon at Grandma's.
"It is sort of an end-of-the-year present to myself, I was sort of talking to the coach and she said, why don't you do Grandma's Marathon and take a week off and get ready for cross country. I plan on just racing with some of the guys on the team and hopefully, I'll have a good finish staying with them," says Rivard.
More than 18-thousand participants are expected to compete over Grandma's weekend. For the full marathon, it is the 38th Annual Race and for the Garry Bjorklund Half - it is the 24th. Not only is this weekend big for the Northland, it has become a destination for runners from all over the world.
"This is just huge for the city and the entire area and region for that matter. Bringing in this many people into this area for a weekend event is phenomonol," says Bob Gustafson, Public Relations Director from Grandma's Marathon.
The first race won't be Saturday, it will be Friday as the 21st Annual William A Irvin 5K is scheduled for 6 pm.

I've been suggesting CITY-wide rewards for winning CITY wars a long time ago, on Edgebee's forums. You'd think that it would already be there if they cared about making sense and keeping players who've got everything and thus have no reason to spend any (more) money on the game.

Limited Only by Your Imagination!,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Fujifilm FinePix S4200 Digital Camera (14MP, 24x Optical Zoom) 3 inch LCD Screen (discontinued by manufacturer) (Electronics)
As someone who has used a range of cameras, this one presented no obstacle, and is a joy to use!
Living in London, there is endless opportunities for a good photo-shoot! The 24x zoom is simply out of this world! I learned very quickly, the art of using zoom (at this magnification) to great effect! The compression in the images is stunning! Taking images of the crowded streets is breathtaking! Placing the unit on a tripod in Regents Park, I took a closeup shot of the BT tower! Wow! I could see right into the offices, 600 feet above London! Very impressive! Very soon, I learned to use the menus and found out how to turn on the digital zoom. At first, I thought I was seeing things. Turning on this feature, racks the zoom up to a mighty 160 x! Yes, that's right! 160. I have used it up 100x (or somewhere around that mark). You will need a tripod. And if you've never used a digital camera with such awesome zoom, with a tripod, be prepared to do some serious photographic learning!!! Just 'jogging' the camera, at 100x zoom, completely destroys your composition!! Something else you can use to steady the camera when using such a huge zoom-range, is a cam-cushion. I made my own by using a half-empty bag of rice, sealed up with tape!! And placed inside an odd-boot sock!! Voila!! A portable, and not too heavy, cam-cushion! But the zoom-compression in the images is awesome!! On three occasions, I have photographed the moon! Incredibly, you can see the dark patches and mountain ranges in lurid detail!! And all from a camera for this price!!! 10/10 The macro facility has two settings. On the higher of the two settings, it is child's-play to take close ups of very small subjects! One one of my jaunts, I found a 'Lego' figurine of a spaceman holding a wrench or spanner! So I decided to learn to use the macro facility. I set it to maximum, and positioning the little guy (3 cm high) on a wall, in brilliant sunlight, I took an image! Perfect! Just perfect! Every detail could be clearly seen. And only today, I went to Regents Park and took some images there! I took countless images of various flowers and bees on flowers, using the macro lens facility with consummate ease! You would need to be an inebriated gorilla to get this wrong! I mean; how hard can it be? (laughs.) For the initiated, the camera can be used in aperture or shutter priority or manual. However, I can't really see many people wanting to go to all that trouble, when perfect pics are just a click away! This camera has more than enough facilities and shortcuts to keep everyone happy! It can be set to (various) scenes; eg, night. landscape, party, close up, etc! (scene position) Custom, Program, Panorama, Scene recognition Auto, Auto, and of course, the aforementioned Aperture priority, Shutter priority and manual modes. The unit is reasonably light and compact. The 3 inch LCD screen is crisp and clear. The viewfinder (which is a microscopic LCD image of the objective) is very pleasing to use. As the title of my review implies; it is ony limited by your imagination. And I don't doubt that I will be discovering new things about it for a very long time to come! Bravo! The 14 mega-pixel censor, gives crisp and bright images. The continuous shooting mode is breathtaking!! It shoots 40 frames in 5 seconds!! (Ouch!!) Photographing wildlife (particularly bees on flowers) is a breeze!! The menus are very easy to use and learn how to set up your camera to your specifications. All in all, I am very pleased it! 11/10! (laughs.) Great value for money! Comments

Addendum to my review:
Re. batteries. Buying rechargeable batteries is not an option. If you use regular (high power) batteries, you're going to be spending a lot of money! I keep two sets; 1 x 2900 mAh, & 1 x 2450 mAh (milliamp hour - this is how much charge a battery holds; the higher the figure, the longer they will last). You will of course need to invest in 2 x battery chargers. Re. The SD card. If you like to shoot videos, then an SD card with plenty of memory on it is what you need! Use a good quality 'class 10' SD card. (I use a 16 GB SANDISK) NB: There are fakes on sale online. The label will say 16 GB, but if you test the card, you might get a reading as low as 2GB! Not good! Buy your card from a trusted source. I've been using my S4200 since 2012. It wasn't too expensive either! (�109.00) The image quality if good, but not as sharp as a DSLR. (Not at this price!) You can do your own image editing (sharpening, etc) if you so require. Comparing this camera to more expensive ones is a waste of time! I mean; you wouldn't compare a family saloon car with a Rolls Royce! For what it will cost you, this camera has a great performance, and a generous compliment of features. It has a fantastic zoom (160x with digital zoom turned on). Exposure control; you can adjust the white-balance in tiny increments. It has a self-timer. The macro is fun and easy to use. The continuous shooting mode will take your breath away! It does have more facilities than some users will need. They are there waiting for you! I have learned much about photography in general in just two years of using this piece of kit. And you can too! Every time I use it is brilliant!

The hotel may have hope since there were signs that rooms were being renovated...
Hotel lobby and stairs carpet was gross! Room was OK, but there were holes in walls and damage to ceiling. Hide-a-bed matress was not usable!
Good breakfast. Good location. Friendly staff. Nice fitness center.
Mr. Creaky, the elevator, was a little scary. Pool water really cold.
staff was nice
made a reservation the night before for three rooms got there the next day and they didn't have no rooms very very upset no type of refund no nothing will never stay there again
The location is great. We were vacationing in Galveston and it was great to avoid the crowds and traffic. There is also a Wal-Mart close by and many other necessary stores.
The office staff wasn't as friendly as hoped. Cleaning staff was a bit pushy getting us out. We were literally one minute late. Plus the pool was very murky.
Fridge and microwave were broke. Hallways smelled like smoke and the pool was small and unclean.
I love the staff the best:The room is also very nice.
On a previous stay I had several challenges with the room - the fridge didn't work, the room was very dirty - I think the housekeeper had just mistaken it as finished which is ok. While They cleaned the room but didn't address the fridge/all food spoiled.
Friendly and helpful staffs. The room was clean and had a very high end look. I like that some good Restaurants and a movie theater were in walking distance.next when I am in Webster,TX Springhill suites is gonna be my home away from
Checking out from it.
The room was very noisy. The hotel does not have laundry service or washing machines. I'm here for work and that did not work out. I checked out 4 days early, and went to another hotel with laundry service. When checking out, I asked for a receipt, I was
The location.
It was outdated and not very clean. Definitely not worth the money it costs.
Staff was awesome ,beautiful lobby area. Bed were comfy for the few hours i was able to stay.
Althoulg not a dive The rooms are not up to the same level as the lobby area. Hallways are not as well kept as they should be. The lobby is almost false advertising once you enter the hallway to the rooms.
Location. Value. Room size.
Did not ask for smoking but was booked in to smoking. Then could not change. Thin walls.
Parking space in front of room usually was occupied by someone else. Not enough parking.
Close to beach
The drunk Mexicans in the parking lot and the people fighting in the middle of the night
Hotel, staff, and room was all really great!
The weather!
We were in a handy cap room that was very convenient for wheel chairs.
That we had a handy cap bathroom. We are not handycap.
close to NASA nice hotel family oriented and free breakfast

TripAdvisor Reviews Star City Hotel Budapest
Travel Blogs from Budapest
Plazas, pastries and catching up with the past
Breakfast today was at an authentic Hungarian place close to the hotel, during which we planned the day. But it wasn't long before our plans went out the window. Budapest, we quickly discovered, is to be savoured - not rushed over. But we did make a 'must see' list of sorts, and made our way to the Nagy Vasarcsarnok - the market and looked at all of the food - plenty of sausages, types of paprika, pickled vegetables and many other familiar items, as well as a huge ...
Parizsi Udvar- A Sleeping Beauty
... felt sorry it didn't have the lavish attention it deserves. For now it's quiet and dark, almost eerie because it looks so pretty in the shadows. There are no signs, no tour guides, no gift shop, no indication at all that this astonishingly beautiful place is here.
Day 3 Budapest
... nonetheless. We took the metro to Great Market Hall to look around and taste the famous "lángos." The first floor was fresh meats, vegetables, spices, pastries, ect and the second floor had trinket and food stands. Our tour guide from the day before had told us we couldn't leave the city without trying lángos which is essentially fried pizza. Very tasty and very filling! We topped if off with a freshly made crepe filled with Nutella. Delicious!!! For our ...
Old Haunts with New Faces
... torta and I fed my poppyseed (opium?) addiction.
After a stroll around the Fishermen's Bastion to admire the view over Budapest we headed back down the hill to catch the bus home. Dinner at home was a simple meal of antipasto and wine since I had to finish my rebuttal and send it off. In the night there was a loud thunderstorm with rain but the weather kept its good manners and the sun was back in the ...
Buda and Pest and everything in between
... a Neo-Renaissance style ballroom cafe in the back. The cafe was ornately decorated and seemed like a perfect place to sit and have a coffee after book shopping. I was impressed by the number of titles and the variety of books translated into Hungarian, enough to fill up 4 floors of the store with books. It appears that Hungarians are a literary people.
We continued on into the historical Jewish quarter, where the streets are narrow and ...

This is one of the funniest videos I've seen all year. Granted, we're only a little over a week into 2013, but still. A handsome and very balsy Aussie lad named Adrian VanOyen decided he'd try out the 100 Worst Pick-up Lines and film it. The result is absolutely hilarious.
Some of the lines are from movies and television shows, while others I think he just came up with. Regardless, this video had me bursting out laughing several times. Seriously, some of the things he says are so inappropriate I'm surprised he didn't get slapped. For example: "What has one hundred and forty eight teeth and holds back the Incredible Hulk? My zipper." Another one is, "Would you like an Australian kiss? It's like a French kiss… but down under."
The only thing the video doesn't show is if any of the pickup lines actually worked and if he ended up hooking up with any of the women. LOL. Enjoy the video below – I sure as hell did.
A while back, I wrote about a YouTube channel calld LAHWF, which stands for "Losing All Hope Was Freedom," a quote from Fight Club. The main guy from the videos is Andrew Hales and in their videos you see them executing very awkward pranks on people…like trying to hold hands with them, holding the door open for people that are very far away, and many more.
In this new video, the actors are on the streets asking locals for directions, but literally echo everything the people say as the directions are given. Essentially, they're playing a good old fashioned game of "copycat". I love seeing people's reactions as they try no continue giving directions and hold back their laughter as it's happening.
Watch the video below and definitely check out the other videos if you haven't seen them out yet.
I freaking love news bloopers. When you're on television and it's live, literally anything can happen. I posted about some news anchor bloopers earlier this year, but this new compilation has some new goodies that I hadn't seen yet that I'm sure you'll enjoy.
Whether it's the anchor jumbling up their words and saying something inappropriate, people doing something inappropriate in the background, or something hilarious randomly happening that throws everyone off, it's hilarious to watch. As a side note, we were filming a new episode of Homorazzi the other day and I had my own hilarious slip of the tongue. I was talking about The Carrie Diaries essentially being the show that fills the time slot for Gossip Girl, but I accidently said something like, "it's what's filling Gossip Girl's hole". Needless to say, we all lost it and burst into laughter – I can't wait to see that episode.
Enjoy the awesome compilation of news bloopers from 2012 below.
We've all had to watch those awkward sexual harassment videos when starting at a new company at some point in our lives. Usually, they're super outdated and inadvertently humorous.
In this new Funny or Die video, a new guy named John (Travis Van Winkle… SO HOT) is hired at a company and his new boss (Brian Guest) makes him watch their sexual orientation video before he starts working. Unfortunately, their media centre is totally outdated and thus they decide to give him a live demonstration of what is and isn't allowed. The guy and his co-worker Samantha (Maria Lopez) proceed to demonstrate various inappropriate touching scenarios or positions and tell John that it's not allowed. They go to great lengths to show what isn't allowed… let's just say some S&M gear come into play, as well as a huge black dildo.
Watch the hilarious video below. I warn you that you may finish watching the video wanting only to sexually harass John yourself. Yum. Enjoy!
Former RuPaul's Drag Race star, Willam Belli is back with Episode 3 of her new web series, Willam's Beatdown, which is in association with The Stylish. If you've watched the first two episodes, you must be as excited as I am that the third one has finally arrived after a holiday delay. If you don't know what the concept is, Willam says it best: "I watch videos and I'm gonna teach you how to be better… through the faults of others." If you missed the first two episodes, I've also included the links to those below.
This week, Willam takes on the princess of YouTube beauty videos, Blair Fowler! Also on the chopping block are newspaper nails and Kool-Aid hair dye! Yeah, as you can imagine Willam has some fun with those. At the beginning of the video, Willam takes on a guy named Gregory Gorgeous who provides all sorts of makeup tips and Willam looks like she's about to explode. LOL.
Watch the latest episode below, and be sure to watch the other two if you haven't yet. Seriously, this queen is harsh…and hilarious. Enjoy!
The controversial energy shot, 5-Hour Energy has just come out with a new commercial that seems to be inspired by the famous Old Spice guy commercials that star Isaiah Mustafa.
In the commercial, the hot guy shown above shares his crazy, unrealistic list of activities and tasks that he has accomplished in the last five hours. Whether that is having gone for a run (while knitting a sweater), writing a novel (in Spanish), or recording his debut single (also in Spanish…LOL). I especial love the disclaimer caption that reads, "For comedic purposes only. Not actual results." LOL.
I've probably only ever had one of these once or twice and there's a lot of discussion right now around their potential negative effects on you and whether their "no crash" claim is actually accturate. All of that aside, enjoy watching the hot 5-Hour Energy guy in the entertaining commercial below.
One of my new favorite video series of 2012 is definitely ASAP Science, but Mitchell Moffit & Gregory Brown. They post some pretty fascinating videos on topics that you may think about but might not know the answer to. Take "The Science Of Morning Wood" for example. Everyone knows it happens, but why is a whole other story.
Back in September, they posted a video titled "Amazing Facts That Will Blow Your Mind," which I somehow missed, but I've included it below along with the Part 2 of that segment, with mind-blowing facts about sperm, alcohol and tons more. Did you know that the Tyrannosaurus Rex is closer to our time than it is to when the Stegosaurus roamed the earth? I sure didn't. Watch the videos below for some pretty fascinating info…and so you can sound even smarter around your friends ;)

This is one of those pranks that you almost feel guilty for laughing at, but I'm sharing it with you anyway. An 8-year-old boy named Kenyan was playing around on his family's iPad and I guess was checking out the cars on eBay. He panicked and shut the iPad off when he thought he purchased a Mustang for $50,000 – LOL. He figured by shutting it off, he'd be in the clear. Picture being just a kid and thinking you accidentally almost bought a car – a big difference between that and spilling your juice on the couch.
When his mom, Paula Papen came into the room, she asked him why he bought a $50,000 car and he explained that he had tried to exit out of it and that it purchased the car by accident, so he shut the iPad down to try to prevent it from going through. She said there was no way to cancel it and he is devastated that he has caused his family such grief. His mom doesn't get mad at him though, she just says he made a mistake. She then breaks the news that he didn't by a car and he couldn't be more relieved.
In response to some of the criticism his mom received for the prank via comments on the video, Paula responded by saying "Trust me,? my son is fine, no permanent damage… And if there is, we know some really good therapists." Watch the video below.

ummm, well all sorts really, but within stitching, I like sewing and knitting.
I would like to knit some gifts for some friends and relatives having babies soon.
Baby socks, hat or blanket
None yet, still very new... :)
Hello, I've just taken up knitting - no expert at all and very little knowledge, but I love it so far! Would love to meet people in Zurich and learn knitting techniques. I'm an architect and have recently gotten married and moved to Switzerland.
I had a wonderful time meeting up at this group. Lovely girls, whom I really enjoyed speaking with (pawn shop) along with some great help from the girls as I have two left thumbs when it comes to knitting, but I still really enjoy it - Thanks for all the help! x

New Orleans Saints put bounty on NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell
NEW ORLEANS, LA - The New Orleans Saints have apparently not learned a lesson from the series of suspensions that were leveled by the NFL. Following suspensions that were issued because of a bounty system that offered rewards for inflicting injury, the Saints have reportedly issued a bounty on NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
"Obviously, we are hoping that the appeal process works out to our benefit," said Saints head coach Sean Payton. "Rest assured we are going through the proper legal channels and fighting this miscarriage of justice this with every inch of our being. We're also willing to throw a little dough at anyone who takes a good poke at Commissioner Goodell. As a wise man once told me, kill the head and the body will die."
The actual amount of cash involved, and the amount of physical injury required to collect the bounty remain unknown. "I'll just say we're looking to take this guy out of the game for a while," said an unnamed member of the Saints defensive coaching staff. "Nothing too serious, we just want to kill his head. Maybe sweep the knee and then uppercut his head and then watch while he walks around sideways. You know, just good clean fun."
The commissioners office became concerned after receiving several phone calls from New Orleans asking for a copy of Roger Goodell's medical records. "They wanted really specific information about any physical weaknesses he might have," said secretary Lidia Bertsch. "They asked if he'd had any recent concussions or ACL surgeries. It was a rather chilling conversation."
Members of the Saints staff would not confirm or deny that the call came from them. "It's just how the game is played," said another coach who wished to remain anonymous. "And if you're gonna play that game, play it right. That includes doing research and scouting. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm searching for a good rusty nail. Word on the street is Roger has not had a tetanus shot in over twelve years."

Boss fight, round 2.
We confess, by the end of the 1min 40sec teaser trailer for this sequel, we were giggling helplessly. The laughter starts just 13 seconds into the trailer, the moment we see the faces of Nick, Dale and Kurt (Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis). That laughter reaches its climax just before the trailer hits its one-minute mark.
The follow-up to the 2011 comedy Horrible Bosses also sees the return of Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx and Jennifer Aniston, with Chris Pine and Christoph Waltz joining the cast as the guys' new adversaries.
Not wanting to work for any bosses, Nick, Dale and Kurt decide to launch their own business. Unfortunately, they get into the business with a slick investor who soon pulls the rug out from under them. Naturally, they come up with an idiotic plan which involves kidnapping the investor's adult son and ransoming him to regain control of their company.
Horrible Bosses 2 is scheduled to arrive in Malaysia on Nov 27.

Hitchcock loving play of line with 'European creative chemistry'
Jan 13, 2014, 10:05 AM EST
Blues coach Ken Hitchcock is tickled pink over the play of his all-European line with Vladimir Sobotka, Vladimir Tarasenko, and Patrik Berglund.
Dan O'Neill of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch shares the coach's thoughts on his newly formed line that's having big-time success under the arch.
"We kind of threw stuff against the wall with that line," Hitchcock said. "We didn't really know where that would get to. But they have some European creative chemistry that is unique. They play an old way, a way that's probably not familiar for most people watching the game."
Each player has been on a tear lately.
Tarasenko has 12 points in his past nine games including four goals. Sobotka has 11 points in that span and Berglund has six points with three goals.
Seeing the two Vlads carrying on the way they have has helped give the Blues a lift in their race with the Blackhawks in the Central Division. Having them step their game up while Alex Steen is out with a concussion makes their production even more timely.

Time: 6:41PM
I know we want to get this season out of the way first but the summer will 'almost certainly' see another rebuilding process take place at Pompey.
So, surely this is something that we have to start having one eye on now...
With the 'lingering play-off thoughts' now just about dead, they were always limited though really, following the midweek defeat we can now - to a pretty safe understanding - start planning for life in the championship again, which will see plenty of changes again.
We now know, that with promotion virtually ruled out, premier league football will not be on the agenda - there are obvious pros and cons to this, although all in all I am happy enough to stay put - so that will mean that PLENTY of high earners, the left overs, will definitely be off this summer when their contracts end.
There is a good chances that Steve Cotterill, who has hinted recently at starting to rebuild, will want to keep some but the wages they are on/will want to be on are going to be beyond us and that will determine where their futures lie I reckon...
I say offer a number of these players new deals, we would be 'foolish' in many ways not to, but do so with them being offered £10,000 absolute TOPS!
I would not expect many, if any, of them to sign new contract and if they do not then let them try their hand elsewhere, not that I can see many clubs paying them anything like what we have - nor can I see that many premier league clubs coming in for them, even if they 'might' think that they are premier league quality. That in many ways is still a problem for us; too many have that 'premier league mentality' about them, the old 'big I am' thoughts.
To be honest I have this feeling, if offered, The Herminator would sign a new 1-year contract, and on a reduced rate. I would 'think' that he is still on around £20,000(ish) p/w but think this was a problem more out of the fact that a clause 'pretty much' entitled him to this - even having to take home 50% of that, if not less, would be enough for him at his age because he is settled where he is.
Of course Richard Hughes and Michael Brown will be off.
Dave Nugent will be off when his contract ends, but I really cannot see a whole cluster of clubs clambering after his signature, and they most definitely will not offer him anything like what we are paying now! In many ways I would say that he is just as well off staying put, as even on half of his current wages I suspect that that would be about as much as he would get elsewhere, and he IS NOT a premier league footballer!
The majority, if not all, of loanees will go back and then move on - I am not convinced that I would want this but Ibrahima Sonko - who will be a free agent - and Carl Dickinson - who would be 'cheap' methinks - 'could' yet return?
I know that I would be making moves to get Ritchie de Laet and Jonathan Hogg on loan again next season if we can - neither are going to get into their parent clubs' starting 11, quite possibly ever so lets get talking to Manyoo and Villa, respectively, about the possibility of 'borrowing' them again next season.
David Cotterill has been 'decent' enough so when we are talking to Swansea about extending his loan we might also want to have a word about what sort of fee they would be looking for in the summer - if this is nominal enough, and I cannot see him being prices that highly to be honest, lets look at seeing what we can agree with him too...
It will be interesting to see what happens to the more 'high profile' players, that will be under contract but on bloody good money - the likes of Aaron Mokoena, Tal Ben Haim, Hayden Mullins, Kanu, Liam Lawrence and Dave Kitson?
'Some', I reckon, will have some interest shown in them but it is not as easy as saying they stay or go - some we 'might' want to move on, due to their wages, but it could actually be these wages that determine that they do stay.
Either way we will have enough of a clearout, I just PRAY that Joel Ward is not cashed in on, to make balancing the books all the more easier, especially with players coming in on 'sensible' wages!
Danny Webber, on the right deal if he can prove his fitness, could be worth keeping - read more on these thoughts Can it give him enough 'lift-off' though? - here.
There are many areas we need to look at so I would hope that we have started looking at players going out of contract with others clubs, that can be picked up on a bosman, with the thoughts of starting to look to try and tie them up sooner rather than later.
You can rest assured other clubs are starting to open dialogue with agents of players coming to the end of their contracts, so why we should not be any different?
We will not, at least I hope not, be operating with an embargo round us this summer although we will, or at least should be, working on a realistic budget - looking to offer out realistic wages.
Yep, it will be another rebuilding job at Fratton this summer, although for me this 'could', if done the right way, be a massive summer for Pompey because we have the chance of further stabilising this club by bringing the wage bill down further by offloading, if they will not take what is offered, high earners and bringing in players that will offer as much - in some cases more - but for much less money...
