One of the things I liked about meeting new Office of Federal Procurement Policy head Joe Jordan recently was that he is a taxpayer advocate and a small-business advocate at the same time. That's good, because the two unfortunately don't always mix. Of course, the government should make maximum use of entrepreneurial, innovative and nimble small businesses. In addition to that list of qualities, such firms are also often less expensive (because of lower overhead, among other things).
But the government small-business contractor lobby, which is dominated by firms that primarily or exclusively serve the government market rather than commercial small businesses, often seems interested mostly in asking the government to use small businesses even if they are more expensive and they are merely providing me-too body shop or reseller work that is pretty far from the image of Steve Jobs in a garage innovating the economy's next direction.
I was inspired by the meeting with Jordan to think in his spirit about things the government could do to help both small businesses and agency missions.
Here's my idea: raise the micropurchase threshold to $250,000 for the first five contracts a new small-business entrant into the federal marketplace has with federal customers.
Why the micropurchase threshold? Purchases below the micropurchase threshold are not subject to any government-unique requirements of the kind that often scare commercial businesses from entering the federal marketplace. The government can make a decision to go with a vendor without any complex requests for proposals or proposals of the kind that also often scare small new businesses off from federal work.
If you allowed a new small business entrant to the federal marketplace to get five contracts without special federal requirements, they could both establish good past performance to help them get larger contracts and maybe encourage many of them to take the bigger step of doing the necessary adaptations for the federal marketplace after the first five contracts. I predict that the government will get lower prices and more innovation from these businesses than they do from many of the government-only small businesses already in the federal marketplace.
There are a few implementation issues that would have to be worked out. How soon would these jobs get onto the Federal Procurement Data System so agencies could figure out whether a new contractor was up to five contracts yet? You would also need some simple certification to prevent a situation where a business got five contracts, declared itself bankrupt, re-appeared in a different name, and sought to receive five more (and so on).
This would require a statutory change, though the statutory language would be easy. Congressional small business committees, congressional procurement committees, OFPP – anybody interested?

Steve, it's a good idea! I'd like to see it open to small businesses who are currently doing business with the gov't (not just new to gov't market) - a lot of us have very innovative ideas and approaches but can't get them "to market" in the gov't because of traditional acquisition methods. -- Linda
Darryl, thanks for this suggestion. :)
I like the micropurchase threshold idea. It might be simpler to administer if you allow them to operate under m'purchase rules for a limited time, say 2 years, rather than trying to track when they hit five contracts. The truly innovative, value producing firms could probably earn more than 5 contracts in that time, while firms that don't get sales should probably re-assess their marketing strategy anyway! Source selection could follow existing FAR 13.2 rules. The only legislative changes necessary would be to permit the use of FAR 13 rules for firms that have not previously performed on Gov't contracts, and to raise the m'purchase threshold for this program from the current FAR 2 threshold (generally $3000) to $250K. Best Regards, Darryl
Thanks Alan, Per, and Vern for your comments. Alan, would need to check further, but I'm guessing that a lot of what these companies do wouldn't be appropriate for grants -- but deserves further checking. Vern, I wasn't just saying don't be a naysayer -- I suggested three specific ways to address the concerns you suggest. I am suggesting only don't just discuss potential downsides, also try to see if you can suggest ways to make something like this work.
I like your thinking on this. I can see raising the micro-purchase level to $25K and reinstituting the Test Program under FAR 13.5. I think most folks would agree this.

After blowing our socks off with District 9, then making a slightly more conventional sci-fi tentpole with Elysium, Neill Blomkamp is getting back to his quirky genre roots. Dubbed "Real Gangsters," this clip is focused on Chappie as he tries to be one of the guys and learn how to live the robo-thug life. The criminals seem to be prepping Chappie to assist in an upcoming heist, and the impressionable little 'bot seems to at least have the skills for the job.
Based on the cars alone, the 24th James Bond film, Spectre, is set to be one of the biggest and most impressive in the long-lived franchise. While we're stuck waiting until November to see the automotive extravaganza on the big screen, a lucky bystander managed to catch two of the movie's four-wheeled stars filming on the streets of Rome.
A sneak peek at F. Gary Gray's Straight Outta Compton played during tonight's Grammy Awards, but now you can watch the film's red band trailer, which includes an introduction from Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, two of the members of N.W.A., the gangster rap pioneers at the centre of the film. Will you watch it?
The original 1982 movie about a suburban family besieged by daughter-abducting spirits stands as one of best horror films of that decade. It's also of the surprisingly few films actually written by Steven Spielberg. The reboot retains and amplifies several elements from the original: The bedroom inter-dimensional portal, help from a psychic, the static-filled ghost-channel TV, and that freaky clown.
A politically-charged serial killer thriller set in 1953 Soviet Russia, CHILD 44 chronicles the crisis of conscience for secret police agent Leo Demidov (Tom Hardy), who loses status, power and home when he refuses to denounce his own wife, Raisa (Noomi Rapace), as a traitor. Exiled from Moscow to a grim provincial outpost, Leo and Raisa join forces with General Mikhail Nesterov (Gary Oldman) to track down a serial killer who preys on young boys. Their quest for justice threatens a system-wide cover-up enforced by Leo's psychopathic rival Vasili (Joel Kinnaman), who insists "There is no crime in Paradise."
The Fantastic Four will stretch, sneak, blaze and clobber their way back into movie theatres soon, and now Marvel's first band of genetically modified misfits have a properly epic trailer to mark the occasion. The trailer doesn't give much away plot-wise, giving us a glimpse of the origin story that comic book fans will already be familiar with: a group of scientists are bestowed with strange powers after an experiment goes wrong.
If you ever wondered what a film starring Salma Hayek, playing a sexy assassin holed up in her apartment while a gruelling gauntlet of gangsters burst their way in, shooting up the place, well, then first off, congratulations for having such a specific vision. Secondly, it seems that your eccentric curiosity is about to be sated, because the new trailer for Salma Hayek's new film, Everly is basically everything that was just described.

Germantown's nonunion employees to get pay increase
Village staff has gone five years without a raise
Germantown — The Village Board approved a 2 percent pay increase for 34 nonunion employees by a 6-1 vote Monday night. Trustee Art Zabel cast the no vote, while trustees David Baum and Al VanderHeiden were absent.
Trustee Terri Kaminski argued forcefully for the pay raise.
"Now that the economy has improved, we can afford it," she said. "Our employees haven't had a raise in five years, they work hard and there are some I'd hate to see leave."
Kaminski warned that other communities have already raised pay for employees and could lure some Germantown workers.
"I don't think it's the least bit extravagant, and it's fair," she said of the pay raise.
Village President Dean Wolter said the village has strengthened its financial status while employees waited patiently for the raise.
"We've done the right things in the down years, and asked our employees to wait," Wolter said. "Now it's time."
Zabel said he voted no because raises should not be given across the board.
"I believe it's time to do something" for employees, Zabel said, but added, "some employees deserve more, some deserve less."
Kaminski responded by challenging Zabel to name in public session any employees he believes deserve a lesser pay increase.
"Don't make it look like we're just throwing money away," she said.
The village adopted a performance evaluation and pay plan for nonunion employees two months ago. Wolter suggested making use of that plan in the future.
"We have to trust our village administrator," Wolter said of implementing the plan. "I'm not looking to micromanage."

The design comprises rigid, rectilinear forms following the back of pavement line, reflecting the old industrial factories and warehouses, typical to the area. We were conscious not to copy the industrial language of the sites' past but reinterpret a modular and cellular expression in a fluid and contemporary manner.

Measure | Ingredient |
3 packs | (3/4 oz) pistachio instant pudding |
2 cans | (8 oz) crushed pineapple with juice |
1 | Carton (8 oz) cool whip (thawed) |
1 cup | Mini marshmallows |
½ cup | Chopped pecans |
In large bowl, mix pudding and pineapple/juice with spatula. Mix in cool whip. Fold in marshmallows and pecans. Refrigerate.
Maraschino cherries and or coconut may also be added for variations. You can also add 2 drops of green food coloring if you so desire. I have even made it without the pecans since there are already some nuts in the pudding.

not as advertised
B&B advertised gourmet breakfasts and accoutrements, such as complimentary wine, etc. We stayed two nights. A mediocre breakfast was served on the first morning after the hostess arrived twenty minutes late. She left discount pastries out for second morning breakfast. There was no complimentary wine, etc. The B&B did have charm. Located in older portion of Natchitoches. However, traffic on Jefferson Street directly in front of the location was quite heavy. The place was clean. We liked the rooms though reading light on only one side of the bed. In any event, we left with sense of disappointment due to expectations not being met. Advertisement was misleading. It was overpriced in relation to lack of services and poor service.
Unique Quality: In historic section of Natchitoches.
Directions: Older district of Natchitoches.

Early Warning Systems: A Survey and a Regime-Switching Approach

Previous early-warning systems (EWSs) for currency crises have relied on models that require a priori dating of crises. This paper proposes an alternative EWS, based on a Markov-switching model, which identifies and characterizes crisis periods endogenously; this also allows the model to utilize information contained in exchange rate dynamics. The model is estimated using data for the period 1972-99 for the Asian crisis countries, taking a country-by-country approach. The model outperforms standard EWSs, both in signaling crises and reducing false alarms. Two lessons emerge. First, accounting for the dynamics of exchange rates is important. Second, different indicators matter for different countries, suggesting that the assumption of parameter constancy underlying panel estimates of EWSs may contribute to poor performance.

Flower Girl, Ring Bearer Marry 20 Years After Wedding
They say a wedding is a good place to meet someone special. Well, here's a twist on that theory.
They say a wedding is a good place to meet someone special. Well, here's a twist on that theory.
You're not supposed to take attention away from the bride at a wedding, but in this case, it seems totally acceptable.
This is one wedding that was unforgettable for everyone in attendance.
The mother-son dance is one of the sweetest traditions you'll see at a wedding. It's also one that just may break your heart.
Taking wedding photos is a real kick -- kick in the head, that is.
A bride-to-be whose name hasn't been revealed emailed out a lengthy missive to her ten potential bridesmaids, telling them exactly what would be required of them if they accepted her invitation to be in her wedding party. The demands were so outrageous, causing it to go viral.
Wedding photos are usually a big snooze -- it's mostly just the photographer moving people around like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle to get the perfect shot. Not in this case, though.
Women love to find ways to be unique on their wedding day. A Tennessee woman decided to be unique by attaching her one-month-old daughter to the train of her wedding dress.
A 113-year-old women married a man over 40 years younger than her in a wedding ceremony held inside a nursing home in China.
Showing up at a wedding after replying you can't make it is pretty rude. Unless you're this guy.
Throwing rice, separating guest, formal wear...they all seem different when in the wrong environment.
Save-the-date wedding announcements are getting bigger than the biggest blockbuster movies.

I hope that everyone had a great holiday weekend and has an even better week ahead !

Enjoy the rest of the week and, please, take care of each other.
Still alive for the playoffs - GO JETS!
Time to find all those great deals. Have a great week everyone.
Watch out for the sleigh. Start your shopping early and avoid the rush!
We are getting lots of rain here. Would be good if we were ducks. I guess ducks would not need a GPS so I would not be posting here if I was a duck and did not have a GPS. I guess I like the rain after all.
Hope everyone's having a drier day then we are.

The Look: Sensual Women
Makeup & Hair: Robert Estevao
Nails: Risque
"She is a sensual woman with a glamorous red mouth," explained makeup artist Bruno Cardoso. Skin was moisturized, corrected and set for a lovely satin finish. Although eyelids were left bare, lashes were curled with several coats of mascara to open up the eyes. Eyebrows were shaped with brow gel, providing a polished frame for the eyes.
Initially, lips were painted with a mix of MAC's Russian Red and Ruby Woo lipstick. However, Estevao ended up using only Ruby Woo due to its matte, pigmented quality. The pigment was painted on with a brush so lips looked full and glamorous.
The male models had their skin moisturized with Studio Moisture Fix and corrected with Select Cover Up.
Products (all MAC): Studio Moisture Fix, Face & Body Foundation, Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder, Studio Finish Concealer, Mineralize Skin Finish Powder, Select Cover Up, Haute & Naughty Mascara, Ruby Woo Lipstick, Russian Red Lipstick
"We created a destroyed bun. We put the hair up into a bun, then shredded it," described Cardoso. Baby hairs were pulled out of the bun and around the head for a relaxed, youthful look.
Guys had their hair styled into an Elvis-style pompadour that was sprayed for hold.
Product: L'Oréal Professionnel Texture Expert Infinium Spray
The manicure captured the sensual spirit with a bright red color by Risque.

Attired in crisp white traditional attire, Muslims across the city congregated at Idgah maidans for special prayers to mark Bakrid, the festival of sacrifice.
Large idgahs such as the ones on Millers Road, Chamarajpet, Tannery Road, Mysore Road and the Sirsi Circle flyover, to name a few, saw huge crowds till noon. The traditional festivities, of course, began after the prayers were over, with sweets being exchanged and people sitting down with friends and family for a hearty Biriyani meal. People visited friends and relatives through the day to exchange sweets and greetings.
As Moinuddin Sait, a shopkeeper from Benson Town, points out that it is also a festival where an act of charity is given importance. "Though not everyone follows this, many of us use this opportunity to distribute our wealth and fortunes among the poor and needy," he said. Mr. Sait's parents, who just returned from Haj this week, he says, are giving alms to a large number of people. "It is a pious occasion," he says.
This festival is celebrated to remember the historic sacrifice by Prophet Ibrahim, who was asked to forfeit his son as a test of his faith, it is believed. Families who can afford to sacrifice a goat on this day do so to mark this. This is shared among the family, relatives and the poor, said Tehreen, whose family spent the better part of the day catching up with relatives and meeting friends to wish them on the occasion.

David Dermer/Diamond Images/ Getty ImagesEven at 24, LeSean McCoy could become one of the league's best backs for years to come.
This served to remind me of a fact that startles me every time I encounter it: LeSean McCoy is not yet 25 years old. His 25th birthday is July 12. He's only six months older than Tampa Bay's Doug Martin, who's No. 3 on this list and was a rookie last year. He's almost a full year younger than Buffalo's C.J. Spiller, and he's a year and a half younger than Charles.
None of this is to say McCoy is a sure bet to outlast any of these guys. Charles and Spiller haven't been full-time starters for their entire careers. Running back is a position that wears you down, and McCoy has been a bell-cow guy, averaging 14.4 carries per game for his career (16.19 since his rookie season) as compared to Charles' 12.06 or Spiller's 8.43. Martin averaged 19.94 in 2012, but again... only one year in the league.
No, the point is that as brilliant as McCoy has been, it's incredible to imagine what's still possible for him, considering he's still only 24 as I write this. When we watch McCoy run, we see him do things other backs can't do in terms of vision and speed and shiftiness. Add to the fact that players his age aren't generally as good as they will eventually be, and you can start forecasting levels of brilliance for McCoy that boggle the mind. He missed time last year due to injury, and the popular perception of him has been bogged down somewhat in the argument about the extent to which Andy Reid did or did not use him. But with Chip Kelly now coaching in Philadelphia, I believe the offense is going to be heavily based on the run game. And with a weapon like McCoy, with as much as he likely still has left in the tank at this point in his career, why wouldn't it be?

"If you are looking for an incredible place to stay while vacationing at Lake Nacimiento - THIS IS THE PLACE! This is an incredible home with spectacular views of the lake. It is perfect for large groups. We had 6 adults and 5 kids and there is more than enough room for all, plus the great boat dock. I am amazed that the owners rent out this gorgeous home.

Enjoy 4 tickets to the finale show of ABC mega-hit, Dancing With the Stars, November 26, 2013, including a backstage experience before the show and a post-show dinner with judge, Carrie Ann Inaba!
Carrie Ann Inaba is a veteran dancer and choreographer who has also worked on some of the most popular contest shows in TV history, a few of which include American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. In 2007, Carrie Ann served as a coach and choreographer, along with her DWTS co-judge Bruno Tonioli, for the well-received ABC reality competition series Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann. But it all started when she landed the job as a Fly Girl in 1990 on FOX's infectiously popular sketch comedy show In Living Color—which led to her gig as a main dancer on Madonna's "Girlie Show World Tour."
The proceeds of this auction will benefit The Carrie Ann Inaba Animal Project, which is dedicated to supporting the rescue, welfare and well-being of animals, and is an sponsored program of Heaven on Earth Society for Animals, a 501c3 charitable organization.

Cooling Assistance applications now being accepted
Virginia's 120 local departments of social services are now accepting Cooling Assistance applications through Monday, Aug. 15, as part of the Virginia Department of Social Services' (VDSS) Energy Assistance Program.
"For many Virginians, the repair or purchase of a fan or air conditioner is financially out of reach, but needed for their health and well-being," said VDSS Commissioner Martin D. Brown. "Just this month, we've seen homes without proper cooling in which the temperature inside the house would hit into the 90s – the same as outside." Cooling Assistance is available to households with a child under 6 years old, a person with disabilities or an adult age 60 or older living in the home who meet the program's income and eligibility requirements. To qualify for Cooling Assistance this year, the maximum gross monthly income (before taxes) for a one-person household is $1,180 and $2,422 for a household of four. Types of available cooling assistance include: • financial aid to help with electric bills to operate cooling equipment; • payment of security deposits for electricity to operate cooling equipment; • repair of a central air conditioning system or heat pump; • purchase of a whole-house fan, including ceiling or attic fans; and • purchase and installation of a window unit air conditioner for households without a working one. Those deemed eligible may qualify for more than one type of assistance. The Energy Assistance Program is funded by the federal Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program block grant; the amount Virginia receives to disburse to recipients varies from year-to-year depending on the appropriation made by Congress. Assistance is available until funds are depleted. The Cooling Assistance component served more than 70,000 Virginia households last year. For details, visit http://www.dss.virginia.gov/benefit/ea/cooling/index.cgi Famil.ies and individuals must apply at their local department of social services by Aug. 15. |
RAMPS receives $8k grant
Citizen Staff Reports 03/03/2015
RAMPS (Ramp Access Made Possible by Students) recently received an $8,000 grant from the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation. The award was one of 75 grants totaling more than $600,137 awarded by the Reeve Foundation to nonprofit organizations nationwide that provide more opportunities, access, and daily quality of life for individuals living with paralysis, their families and caregivers.
RAMPS, an organization founded by then-Henrico County high school students to build ramps for local low-income residents who need them, will use the grant to purchase modular wheelchair ramp supplies. These supplies will be used by local high school RAMPS clubs, who provide volunteers to build the ramps. > Read more.

Travinia brings contemporary elegance to Willow Lawn
It was another win for Willow Lawn when Travinia Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar opened there six months ago, nestled in the heart of the re-made shopping center. The contemporary American Italian restaurant boasts 13 locations up and down the East Coast, with the Henrico location opening in August.
In the same week, I hit up Travinia twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. At lunchtime on a weekday, I was overwhelmed by the smell of garlic and by the number of working professionals in nice suits on their lunch breaks. When we first walked in, I was concerned our meal would be a little too pricey based on the décor – it's a really nice place. Luckily, the menu has a variety of options for every budget. > Read more.
Soak up the fun
'SpongeBob' movie energizes with wit, laughter
There's a ton of sugar in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Literal sugar, as SpongeBob Squarepants (Tom Kenny) and Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke) inhale their own weight in cotton candy and eat ice cream, one scoop per mouthful.
At one point we burrow into the brain of our boxy yellow hero and discover the inner workings of his brain: googly-eyed cakes and candies that giggle and sing. All of which is extremely appropriate for a film like Sponge Out of Water. Because not only is the movie sweet (the "awwww" kind of sweet), but it's the equivalent of a 30-candy bar sugar rush, zipping between ideas like a sponge on rocket skates.
The story under all this is really not that complicated. SpongeBob flips burgers at the Krusty Krab. > Read more.
