is NewSpace Global's daily news source on the NewSpace industry. We provide primary research as well as a timely aggregation of articles found on the web. Here you can find the leading live information stream composed of all the compelling NewSpace events going on around the world, sorted according to the 8 Verticals of NewSpace.
Clark Lindsey, Managing Editor
Clark Lindsey, NewSpace Watch's Managing Editor, has been tracking the NewSpace industry for over 10 years on RLV and Space Transport News. CEOs, investment fund managers, and government decision makers have relied on Clark's reliable, accurate, and timely information for this duration. Prior to launching RLV and Space Transport News on HobbySpace.com, Clark earned his B.A. in physics from the University of Tennessee and doctorate in experimental particle physics from the
University of California at Riverside.
is an information service provider with representatives and contributors around the world. We are committed to bringing thorough and current analyses related to the business of NewSpace:an emerging global industry of private companies and entrepreneurs who primarily serve commercial customers, are backed by risk capital seeking a return, and profit from innovative products or services developed in or for space.
NewSpace Global continues to expand its vast network – built over 10 years – to develop deeper relationships with critical insiders in order to bring important market data and analyses to our subscribers, which include Fortune 500 companies, NewSpace companies, investors, universities, students, and government agencies. In addition to NewSpace Watch, NewSpace Global provides the Observer private company database, the Thruster monthly market tracking report, and three live indices tracking over 600 companies.
NSG 8 Verticals
The NSG 8 Verticals represent the primary markets of NewSpace activity. They are presented left-to-right from mature to emerging verticals, starting with the robust satellite industry and continuing into the nascent sectors of space-based mining and energy. All of the companies tracked by NewSpace Global fall into at least one of these categories. NewSpace Watch articles are categorized according to the 8 Verticals to help you focus on those topics that you find most interesting.
NSG 4 Screens
The NSG 4 Screens are the lenses through which our analysts compute the rankings of companies. They are weighted from left to right, starting with the most important, a company's management, followed by their market, their capitalization, and lastly their technology. The NSG 4 Screens are a critical part of our algorithm, and are used to put all the significant aspects of a company's success into perspective.
NSG 100 Index
The NSG 100 index is a ranking of the top 100 privately held, for-profit NewSpace Companies. Our research analysts determine the NSG 100 by employing a proprietary algorithm that evaluates each company using the "NSG 4 Screens": (i) Management, (ii) Market, (iii) Capitalization, and (iv) Technology.
Scores are based on a 100-point scale, with analysts considering over 50 questions to determine and update rankings regularly. The NSG 100 is the first index of its kind. Unlike most rankings, the NSG 100 index is live and changes daily as the NewSpace industry matures. Our analysts evaluate the impact of each event in NewSpace on every company in the industry, whether that event is a successful Falcon 9 launch by SpaceX, a regulatory change in Congress, or a management addition at SkyBox Imaging. Recognition in the NSG 100 is an achievement, and companies benefit by promoting their inclusion in the index in various media channels.
NSG "On The Bubble" Index (NSG OTB)
The NSG "On The Bubble" Index (NSG OTB) tracks up-and-coming NewSpace companies that have not yet achieved a ranking on the NSG 100 index. Many of these companies may break into the NSG 100 in the future. They are an indication of the strong growth potential of the NewSpace Industry as a whole. Similar to the NSG 100, the NSG OTB is a live index that updates as events occur.
NSG "Publicly Traded Companies" Index (NSG PTC)
Often behind closed doors with little fanfare, multi-billion dollar, multinational, public corporations from industries as disparate as biopharma, software, and insurance are investing heavily in NewSpace. The NSG Publicly Traded Companies Index (NSG PTC) is a live stock index that tracks publicly traded companies making significant investments into the NewSpace industry. Not all companies on the NSG PTC have an obvious or well-understood connection to NewSpace, but NSG analysts have determined that all are dedicating resources with the visionary mindset to generate ROI within our innovative sector.
By the same token, not all conventional aerospace corporations make the cut for the NSG PTC. Those that remain exclusively dependent on defense budgets can be tracked on other indices. Instead, we bring you an inside look at the movers and shakers of tomorrow, and a barometer to track their success. Expect continual improvements to the NSG PTC as we adapt our analyses to the ever-evolving state of publicly traded companies actively positioning themselves to profit from NewSpace. The NSG PTC complements our regular Thruster feature on publicly traded companies.

My grammar is not relevant! It seems like you never read Nietzsche.
I detect a postmodernist lurking somewhere here... At any rate, I think the Hitler issue is probably a bit of a red herring. Let's keep in mind that being an atheist simply means lack of belief in a god or gods. It should be distinguished from positive disbelief in god/gods. There is no logical reason to assume that atheism necessarily has any bearing on one's moral character. The real issue seems to me that organized religions tend to discourage critical thinking and natural inquisitiveness by conditioning children to believe improbable things unquestioningly, to to have "faith" rather than examining the evidence. I think we can all agree that evidence-based reality is preferable to unquestioning faith in an ancient and primitive holy text.
Hitler didn't used Nietzschean philosophy. Do not mistake arianism with ideology of Superhuman. Those are two different things. Do you really read Nietzsche that you come with that conclusion, or you heard from others and repeated by yourself?
"Posting a few of my thoughts on related issues."
Denise, there is a difference between patronising someone and asking them to be reasonable. If you are unable or refuse to tell the difference, then I have no interest in engaging with you.
In all due respect, you people are the reason that atheism isn't advancing in the world. By raising straw men like Hitler to attack, you are promoting atheism as a negative worldview and stunting its growth and proliferation by not standing for anything. It's one thing to crusade against the negative influence of religion in the world, but another entirely to become so mired in trying to cast religion as the archvillain that our movement fails to gain critical mass or direction. Religion is still alive and strong in the world, and we are failing to do anything about it. The best we can come up with apparently is snide and snarky remarks.
@chris tidman. Please do some basic research research, Hitler was in no way a Darwinian. He always claimed to be a Catholic, His Inner Circle were all Christians of some description. If you care to read Mein Kampf you will find plenty of references to God and a Creator, but NONE to Darwin or Evolution.
Darwinism & Evolution does not support a Hierarchy of life forms, And never claims superiority for one species (or race) over another.
@Joseph P & @ Tim L & @Richard Ewald & @ Denise Thomas - Well Spoken.
@ David Philip Norris - Hitlers Nordic Occultism was an attempt to distance Christianity from Jesus the Jew; By Infusing it with Nordic Influences (This is why you get early 20th Century pictures of Jesus with Blond hair & Blue Eyes).
Denise: Calm down. Yours is only one way of looking at the facts. There are other interpretations to be made that are just as valid.
Tim: Perhaps he started a Catholic, but later it's well-documented that he was into pagan Nordic occultism. He was already a friend of Dietrich Eckhart's when he wrote Mein Kampf (to whom he dedicated the book), and it's clear from Eckhart's letters to friends that Hitler already held beliefs counter to the teaching of the Church. But it was expedient for him to use the Church to bolster his authority. Again, I think the facts as a whole suggest that he was a sociopath.
Actually Hitler was a Roman Catholic. He talked about his Christian faith in Mien Kampf and later expanded in speeches saying things like, "In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was his fight against the Jewish poison."
Hmmm. From what I've read/understand, Hitler was no more a Christian than he was an evolutionist. (I believe he later acknowledged being an atheist, and I'm not 100% sure about what he knew about evolution.) Rather, I think he was a textbook sociopath who knew an opportunity when he saw it. It was politically expedient to combine Nietzschean philosophy with "cutting edge" eugenics and use economic conditions to incite blood lust against the Jews.

Budget cuts and tighter rules are expected to keep feds from traveling to as many conferences as they omce did. (Stock image)
Further belt-tightening is putting the kibosh on conference attendance, and a significant number of federal employees say they will attend fewer educational and trade events this year compared to 2012.
A poll of 400 federal employees by market research firm Market Connections, Inc. found that tighter budgets (78 percent) and travel restrictions (58 percent) were key reason why nearly 40 percent said they plan on going to fewer events this year than previously. More than 35 percent also said their managers will not allow them to attend events in fiscal year 2013.
Less than one third said they will continue to attend the same number of events, and just 5 percent said they intend to attend more events than in last year.
The online poll also shows the majority of respondents prefer smaller, content-specific events (58 percent) over large trade shows with multiple vendors (40 percent). In addition, around 70 percent are more likely to attend local events where no hotel is needed or events hosted by trade associations. Additionally, more feds prefer multiday conferences as opposed to half or single-day events.
Despite the growing popularity of webinars and online events, 80 percent of feds still prefer brick-and-mortar conferences. Roughly 60 percent said their main reason for attending a trade show is to stay on top of current technologies and concepts, while 27 percent cited networking opportunities with government. Sixteen percent reported connecting with industry peers as the main motivator.
"As we expected, the current budget environment will have a major impact on event attendance by government employees and decision makers in 2013," Lisa Dezzutti, president and CEO of Market Connections, said in a statement. "This poll shows government contractors should consider participating in or hosting smaller, more content-specific events closer to home, and seeking out alternative methods for reaching the government customer, whether through thought leadership, traditional marketing communications or social media outreach."
The survey findings come nearly eight months after Office of Management and Budget Deputy Director for Management Jeffrey Zients released a memo calling on agencies to spend 30 percent less on travel expenses in fiscal 2013 than fiscal 2010. Agencies were also directed to look at all planned events and not spend more than $500,000 on a single conference. Any conference exceeding $100,000 now requires details to be published on the agency website in an effort to increase transparency.

For my part cut it all out, since the ones on top only get to go and rest of us are just sitting here getting duller on our skills. If we do not get to see what is out there or get hands on training on any of the new things coming out, how are we suppose to keep up with it. Technology is moving so fast that we need to get aquainted with it or else continue on a loosing battle, not everyone can just pick it up by reading out of a book or website.
This'll result in the usual knee-jerk reaction on the part of agencies thus further disconnecting their employees from the realities of the marketplace and the providers who supply the government supplies and services. Expect to see a continued degradation of the requirements generation process and a growth of ignorance of industry capabilities. This is nothing new; simply another swing of the pendulum.
I wish DoD and the Federal Departments review how much money is wasted by having the same executives speaking at all these conferences in DC and around the country. Somebody should do an audit on how much money the DoD Deputy CIO has spent on travel and conferences. You guys are not that interesting. Let others get a chance. All you are doing is troking your ego's and lining up your next job. Pathetic waste of money
Feds that speak at events and represent their organization will probably continue to do so in 2013.
Cut out all that travel and do not let the Government employee go to boon-doggle conferences. So what if they can not meet with peers and trade ideas, some of which could (and have) save millions, it is looking good to the folks who do not understand how technical ideas grow and propagate and the politicians have another set of votes because they "saved" money.

Watch These Dogs in Costumes
How can you resist a Chihuahua in a Superman cape?
How can you resist a Chihuahua in a Superman cape?
Meet Konnor Lee. He is my friend's nephew, but she takes care of him along with her mom. I like to call him "Konnor Lee that smells like cheese!" He is super sweet and OBSESSED with the movie 'Twister' and the new movie 'Sharknado' and can quote the movies while watching them!
It's rare to find this much irony in one photo.
Or this much AWESOME.
There are pros and cons for each condition.
Why do we celebrate Halloween by putting on bizarre outfits and asking strangers for candy? Who is Stingy Jack, and why does he haunt our dreams? We decided to take a look at a few of Halloween's most well-known customs and ask, What do they all mean?
We'd all love to say our kids are always honest. That we've raised them to be stand-up citizens. That they've got a sense of humanity. Empathy. Regard for others.
Sure, it's silly. But that's how we roll here at Joy FM!
Hundreds entered...thousands voted...
This picture literally could've been taken at my house. Same couch. Same masks. Same everything!
If you still haven't had your fill of Halloween trivia, we have a few more fun and eyebrow-raising spooky holiday facts for you. October 31 is a day—and especially a night—full of spine-tingling surprises. With a bit of Halloween knowledge under your belt, you can impress your friends, as well as the ghost and ghouls wandering around your neighborhood, with your detailed knowledge of jack-o'-lanterns and creepy, All Hallows' Eve history.
If you're planning a Halloween party, don't get lazy with the treats and snacks. Just setting out big bowls of candy is not going to cut it.
Instead, how about Mummy Cookie Pops? Or Frankenstein Marshmallows? Or even Mis-Fortune Cookies?
Tons of trick-or-treaters came by at Galleria Of Treats today to collect candy and get their photos taken in our green screen photo booth! Check out the gallery below to see some of the awesome costumes!

My new find this past week
Well, I was in Lowes buying stuff for a big job coming up and decided to check out the plants for sale. I was just in last week and saw nothing great, but now out of nowhere this tiny pot (4") full of what looks like Sansevieria trifasciata Bantel�s Sensation. By Angle Exotics marked Golden Hahnii, for only $4.98. Filled with peaty wet soil. Had to repot and was surprised to find so many tucked together. Shame to have a very small root system. Less than an inch of rhizome to work with.
Stush, Timing is everything, one day nothing, then the next day BAM!!! Look what I found :)
Wow and they do look Bantelish, Lol... now I'm getting a little jealous of your nice catch.
I had to bring mine back indoors because it started getting to cold then Bam!!! it gets Hot again and now today it's raining. Figure that one out, Good O'l California weather for yah.
Thanks all. I can give them out come spring when I know they will have a better root system. I do have enought right now and couldn't pass a deal like that. I have two Gold Hahnii and I would love to have a few more. These are really hard to find. I love the ones posted with the white/green.
Greg, good to hear from you. Our weather is on the cold side now and all is brought in the house.
I like that Sans. EA doesn't show one like that on their website.
I got my Bantels at a local Lowes (Atlanta, Ga. suburb) a few months ago. It was just like you described in a glass cube with the hydro stones. It was about ten dollars. I wanted it planted in soil, when re-potting I found that there were three plants and they were tightly fastened together with a rubber band. I am really glad that I dug it up. I think I rescued it from a choking death. ha!
Keep checking in. They may go on clearance. Also waiting may find them rotting. These like a dryer soil during winter rest. I have told the store personnel many times not to water their sans. Every time I go I find them soaking in water.
I think they would be just fine in your fish tank. I don't think I have a bright spot for them. i would be really upset if I lose Bantels in winter considering they are fussy about light and warmth. lets do it in Spring.
Thanks so much
Hey Stush,
Thanks for the thought, but could I pls. wait 'til Spring? Two nights ago I came home from a plant meeting w/ an armload of Sans, plants I'm fostering for the group. Am out of room, seriously.
As it is am out of clay pots, btwn the Sans, the larger Hoyas.
Interesting that you do the warm fish tank Stush, some folks at Hoya forum do the same for rooting their Hoya cuttings.

For the last in a series of Halloween jellos made for Kitchen Daily, I made these tropical fruit flavored versions of everyone's favorite Halloween treat, Candy Corns. I used sweetened condensed milk, with orange and pineapple flavored gelatin. A second, larger version of this jello mold was created for this weekend's festivities, only with the added bonus of rum!

Halloween is drawing near and with it I created another Halloween jello idea for Kitchen Daily.

I found a box of this D'Gari brand cappuccino flan desert at a grocery store in Clinton Hill and had to try it. I added my own flair by submerging a chocolate wafer in the flan while it was still liquid to create a cakey chocolate vein in the center of the desert. I love flan and I love coffee, and this is a delicious marrage of the two.

With the passing of the Labor Day weekend and summer drawing to an end, I made these mini watermelons to commemorate the occasion. Made with lime rinds, strawberries, and vodka with little black sesame seeds, these make fun little "jello shots". I have seen versions of this all over the web, most recently and notably on another jello blog called My Jello Americans. This is just one of an amazing array of tiny "jello shots" from the creators of that blog made with their own infused liquors in fun, creative shapes. The recipe for this can be found in a preview of my new book here.

This recipe came from the classic Joys of Jell-O recipe book and boasts a new way to make the old fashioned confection. These strawberry, cherry, orange, and banana shaped candies are molded from ground coconut and almonds and are flavored with the corresponding fruit flavored gelatin. Whole cloves and mint leaves put the finishing touches on these tiny fruits. While the taste of the finished product bears little resemblance to actual Marzipan, they are sweet and yummy, especially if you like coconut, and were very fun to make.
The Gelatin Salad SelectorAugust 4, 2010 at 11:33 pm | Posted in RecipeBook | 3 Comments
Tags: Cooking, Dessert, Food, Jello, Photography
This nifty recipe book was sent to me by a reader who found it in the depths of his parent's house in Nebraska. Each page features a different meat dish with a suggestion for a proper gelatin salad pairing. If the primary suggestion is not to your liking a wheel can be turned at the edge of the page to reveal alternate jello recipes that will compliment your main course. My favorite and the most ridiculousness: Asparagus Castle made with lemon jello, pimentos, onions, and asparagus spears arranged around the outer edge like a little fortress. Genius! And it goes really well with steak. Thank you Lance for this gem!

For Rebecca's birthday this year I made this fruity and festive summer mold with mango gelatin, mango rum, and cantaloupe. I found these mini cookie cutters at a shop in Chinatown and they were perfect for cutting the cantaloupe into fun star and flower shapes for the mold. The folks at The Redhead were kind enough to let me bring my jello in and serve it after our celebratory meal despite their list of gourmet desserts.
The evening ended with a pile temporary tattoos being creatively altered and applied to the birthday girl. Included is this tribute to my boozy dessert, giving new meaning to the phrase "There's always room for Jello!". I am truly honored.
Happy Birthday Rebecca!

Recently I took the Jello Show on the road to my sister Kateri's in Minneapolis for my niece Sydney's high school graduation party. My sister found this sunflower mold at a thrift store and had it waiting for me. Jello's popularity in the mid-west has never wavered since the 60's and that was evident by its enthusiastic reception at the party. For the event I made this mint chocolate chip ice cream jello topped with sweetened condensed milk. Thank you Kateri and Congratulations Sydney!

For the holiday weekend I made this festive star-shaped mold with blueberries and strawberries set in a layer of clear gelatin. The white base layer is Guanabana flavored gelatin brought back for me from Mexico by Art. (More exotic Mexican flavors to follow). The flavor was fruity and refreshing, perfect for the very hot weekend. Happy 4th of July!

For my entry in the year's Gowanus Studio Space Jell-O Mold Competition I made this jello and plastic replica of the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant. A striking piece of engineering and architecture located a mere 500 yards from my apartment. The facility has been a point of interest for me since moving in to my neighborhood and a frequent photographic subject. I used 1 liter bottles to mold the gelatin "digester eggs" flavored with raspberry and french vanilla and used food die to mimic the color of the eggs lit at night. Super bright LED lights were used to illuminate the jello from behind. I competed against many wonderful and creative entries and sadly did not win. However, since being inspired by the architectural jellos of Liz Hickock and Bompas and Parr, this is a project I've wanted to take on for a while and am very happy with the finished product. Congratulation to all the winners of the competition!
Photos of the event will be posted on the GSS website this week, but in the meantime Eater covered the event and Gothamist gave me some love. I wasn't able to be at the actual competition since I was out-of-town so a very special thank you to Starr and Art for representing me! And thank you to Marie for helping me construct the catwalks for the model.

My friend Kelly LOVES cake. So to commemorate her birthday this year I made this Jello Poke Cake. It is a basic white cake with holes poked in it and liquid jello poured in and allowed to set. Typically it is made with fruit favors, as this cake's top layer is strawberry, but I wanted to try something different for the bottom layer. I used D'Gari pistachio gelatin dessert made with milk and it was creamy and delicious! The cake is frosted with whipped cream. (The recipe can be found on the Kraft Foods website.) Happy Birthday Kelly!

This year for John's 5th annual Easy Breezy Birthday Brunch I made one of the more difficult and beautiful jello creations, the Rainbow Jello mold. This classic favorite is compromised of 10 layers and 5 different flavors, each with a clear fruity layer and a creamy opaque layer of sweetened condensed milk. As you can see, John loved it and so did everyone else. The recipe for this can be found in a preview of my new book. Happy Birthday John and congratulations on another successful Easy Breezy!

Triple berry salad is a classic Jello recipe, but mine has a few twists. This sparkling treat is made with cranberry gelatin and tart pomegranate juice, along with vodka and club soda and is filled with blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. It was served at a birthday BBQ to a crowd who had never tired my jello before and was devoured by a frenzied swarm of eager party goers. (I've never seen jello sell-out quite like this.) Thank you guys for your jello enthusiasm!
Mini Avocado Molds with StrawberriesMay 10, 2010 at 4:49 pm | Posted in Avocado, Strawberry | 3 Comments

This is a new take on a very old-school recipe and I found it quite tasty. Made with fresh avocado and mayo, it's a savory mold much like guacamole (minus the onions). Strawberries offer a contrasting flavor and an attractive garnish.

My sister Kateri sent this recipe to me from Simply Recipes with a request to try it. This rhubarb flavored gelatin with hints of rosemary and chopped cucumbers borders on sweet and savory. Its not my typical jello mold but I really enjoyed it with a dollop of sour cream.

Bleach 577
Bleach 577
Pointless Chapter. Released end of last chapter takes a whole chapter for him to do it again.
His zanpaktou reminds me of Ichigo shikai and Ikkaku bankai.
I also agree, this chapter was hype for a basically insipid payoff at the end. And indeed the Zanpakutou is basically a polymerization of Ichigo's Shikai and Ikkaku's Bankai, which is to be expected cause i mean... its fricken kenpachi. Now that i think about it, im even more pissed since last chapter kenpachi called his name, and practically released him, already only to have him go through the same thing again.
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
"I got rid of my teeth at a young age because... I'm straight. Teeth are for gay people. That's why fairies come and get them. "
Aqua Team Hunger Force
Still kind of confused how beating Unohona, and finding out your immortal/part sayian leads to you knowing your swords name.
"I got rid of my teeth at a young age because... I'm straight. Teeth are for gay people. That's why fairies come and get them. "
Aqua Team Hunger Force
Well, by beating Unohana he died many times over which, in a sense, TRUELY humbled him to the point of reshaping his ideals a bit and made him recognize he was not alone. At least thats how I imagined it. Even after he fought Ichigo and awknowledged that he was fighting alone and would be stronger if he knew his sword's name, he selfishly asked for it to be revealed to him. The fight against Unohana triggered the cathartic moment he needed.
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
^ Probably that and also, if I remember correctly his problem was that he feared he wouldn't find any worthy foes if he went all out, wasn't it? So by fulfilling his potential, he also tapped into his Zanpaktou's power. Or whatever.
I enjoyed the chapter because of the pretty pictures, lol.

A client for parsing Amazon AWS SNS requests.
Amazon AWS SNS (Simple Notification Service) http(s) endpoint
Important API Change from v0.1 to v0.2
The main
SNSClient callback now returns the more accepted Node.js method of
function(err, msg). v0.1 sent both the error and message as a single argument.
$ npm install aws-snsclient
Basic Usage
var http = require'http' SNSClient = require'aws-snsclient'; var client = SNSClient console.logmessage;; httpcreateServer ifreqmethod === 'POST' && requrl === '/receive' return clientreq res; reswriteHead404; resend'Not found.';listen9000;
Your client only needs to accept one callback, which accepts an object of the decoded message sent from the SNS topic.
message is the raw JSON. You'll probably want access to:
message.Message to get the actual message that you sent.
Confirmation Requests
The initial confirmation request sent out by Amazon is automatically confirmed at the same endpoint. No additional effort needed.
Request Verification
Signatures are automatically verified, but we can optionally verify the correct account id, region, and topics.
Ignore signature verification (recommended for debugging only)
var auth = verify: false;var client = SNSClientauth console.logmessage;;
Verify all credentials
var auth = region: 'us-east-1' account: 'xxx' topic: 'xxx';var client = SNSClientauth console.logmessage;;
Use with Express
var express = require'express' app = expresscreateServer SNSClient = require'aws-snsclient'; var auth = region: 'us-east-1' account: 'xxx' topic: 'xxx'var client = SNSClientauth console.logmessage;; apppost'/receive' client; applisten9000;

Thousands of people use Tattoo.com every day to discover a custom design, request a tattoo estimate, or book an appointment with a professional tattoo artist. Our goal is to make finding an artist worthy of your ink fun, fast and easy.
Over the past years im being really interested in Nordic tatoo design and animal tatoo and some fantasy stuff, Nature design and portraits. I have 2 tatoo`s on my right and left arm. On my right arm in the middle i have a viking with a horn helmet very much look like Odin in grey black. On the top left arm i have a round tatoo with all runes around and a valknut in the middle all in black. My next tatoo will be a long haired blond woman holding a viking skull with a horn helmet on the top of my back in the middle. After that my next project will be a wolf tatoo on my left arm under my valknut-rune tatoo. I also have a idea writing something with gothic words from the havamal over my viking tatoo. Sometime im gonna have the Dio Logo maybe on my back leg but so far its only in the future. I have so many ideas at the moment i sometimes change my mind but im always open to ideas as a tatoo is something you will have for the rest of your life. This is a good place for sharing ideas and find inspiration.

Tribune Co. to Spin Off Newspaper Unit
Tribune Co. said Wednesday that it plans to separate its broadcasting and newspaper businesses in a move similar to the recent split of Rupert Murdoch's empire into a publishing company and an entertainment giant and Time Warner's planned spinoff of its Time Inc. magazine unit.
The spinoff of the publishing operations, which include the L.A. Times and Chicago Tribune, will create two companies with revenue of more than $1 billion, "each with greater financial and operational focus, the ability to tailor its capital structure to its specific business needs and a management team dedicated to seizing strategic growth opportunities with maximum flexibility," said the company, which had also explored a possible sale of its newspapers.
STORY: Rupert Murdoch's New Empire: Who's Up, Who's Down (Analysis)
Tribune, in an indirect reference to its attempts to sell its papers on Wednesday, said that it had explored strategic options but didn't immediately address why it decided against a sale. Some observers previously cited price and tax issues as hurdles. But the planned spinoff doesn't mean that Tribune couldn't agree to a sale of some or all of its newspapers before or after the separation, which could better highlight the financials and performance of the print assets.
"The proposed separation is designed to maximize shareholder value through the spinoff of Tribune's publishing assets to an independent company and the tax-free distribution of shares in that company to the stockholders of Tribune," it added.
The proposed transaction is the latest step in the transformation of the media company, led by president and CEO Peter Liguori. Last week, Tribune announced an agreement to acquire Local TV Holdings and its 19 TV stations in 16 markets across the U.S.
STORY: Sun Valley Preview: Media Deal Chatter Picks Up as Moguls Head to Idaho
After the spinoff, Tribune Co. will consist of 42 local TV stations in 33 markets, WGN Radio, WGN America, Tribune Studios, Tribune Digital Ventures, Tribune Media Services and the company's stakes in Classified Ventures, CareerBuilder and the Food Network.
The new Tribune Publishing Company would house all publishing assets, including the L.A. Times, Chicago Tribune, The Baltimore Sun, the Sun Sentinel in South Florida, Orlando Sentinel, Hartford Courant, The Morning Call and Daily Press.
"Moving to separate our publishing and broadcasting assets into two distinct companies will bring single-minded attention to the journalistic standards, advertising partnerships and digital prospects of our iconic newspapers, while also enabling us to take advantage of the operational and strategic opportunities created by the significant scale we are building in broadcasting," said Liguori. "In addition, the separation is designed to allow each company to maximize its flexibility and competitiveness in a rapidly changing media environment."
The company didn't give a detailed timetable for the separation on Wednesday but said that over the next nine to 12 months, its management team would develop detailed separation plans for the company's board to consider. "There can be no guarantee that the transaction will be concluded or assurances as to transaction terms," it added.

GOP Growth And Opportunity Plan Looks To Be Mostly Squishy
Perhaps there will be more in it once it is released than media outlets are reporting, but, probably not. The entrenched GOP leadership doesn't seem to have a clue
(Daily Caller) Why did Republicans fail to stop Barack Obama from winning another four years in the White House and what can they do to get back on the path to victory?
Those are the topics tackled inside the 100-page report being released by the Republican National Committee's Growth and Opportunity Project on Monday.
"The GOP today is a tale of two parties," the report states. "One of them, the gubernatorial wing, is growing and successful. The other, the federal wing, is increasingly marginalizing itself, and unless changes are made, it will be increasingly difficult for Republicans to win another presidential election in the near future."
That's because the State level Republicans have caught a clue and are sticking with Conservatism, and have been willing to go on the offensive along with standing for Conservative principles. At the federal level, we often nominate non-conservatives. Look, I liked Mitt Romney, he would have been the right guy at the right time for this dismal economy, but much of his past agenda was slightly liberal. He was more JFK than Reagan. His campaign was also too nice, refusing to get down in the mud.
One way to attract younger votes, the report states, is having Republican leaders spend more time going on "The Daily Show," "The Colbert Report" and MTV, and giving interviews to publications like People and Us Weekly.
Sadly, in today's Inside Hollywood type politics, this is necessary, and seems the only way to reach the low information voters.
And citing how outside Democratic groups successfully dug up dirt on Republican candidates in 2012, the committee suggests that well-funded conservative groups improve their opposition research on Democrats in order "to define our opponents as early as possible in the process."
In case the GOP missed it, the groups do. But the GOP mostly refuses to use the research. Nor their own. They want to play nice with the bullies on the left. Here's where we start getting really squishy
"If Hispanic Americans hear that the GOP doesn't want them in the United States, they won't pay attention to our next sentence," the report states. "It doesn't matter what we say about education, jobs or the economy."
Does that sound like they're getting squishy on illegal immigration? Let's flip to the Washington Post
To broaden its appeal, the party must reach out to minority voters and others, according to one recommendation in the report obtained by The Associated Press before its release: "We must embrace and champion comprehensive immigration reform. If we do not, our party's appeal will continue to shrink," it said.
The RNC will also push for a tone of "tolerance and respect" in the immigration debate….
That theme seems to be infused throughout the report and in many stories about it. In other words, the GOP just needs to become Democrats in everything but name. To give up conservative principles. To approve of legalizing people who are in the US illegally.
The report does offer some smarter ideas, like long term outreach to minorities and younger voters, a better ground game, better infrastructure and modern technology programs (seriously, how many bloggers, from big to small, were ever engaged by anyone in the GOP?)
In his Monday speech, Preibus will say that the perception of the GOP as the "party of the rich" continues to grow, and that focus groups described Republicans as "narrow minded," "out of touch," and "stuffy old men."
"The Republican Party needs to stop talking to itself," the report says. "We have become expert in how to provide ideological reinforcement to like-minded people, but devastatingly we have lost the ability to be persuasive with, or welcoming to, those who do not agree with us on every issue."
One cannot be persuasive when one doesn't stridently defend one's ideas. Too many of the GOP insiders fail to make their case strongly, often pushing their ideas softly with the idea that the Media and Democrats will attack them. Clue for the GOP: they'll get attacked regardless by the 90% liberal media, so attack as well as forcefully defend your own ideas.

"Don't waste your credit"
Jane Collingwood is fabulous this is the main reason I purchased this book. No I would not buy another book from this author.
This is possibly the worst book I have ever read out of the couple of hundred of books I have purchased on this site. I downloaded it last night and after the first few chapters I just could not listen to any more. I deleted it from my ipod. I have rarely done this with the books I buy. Mia finds out her boyfriend is obviously having an affair. The story then just becomes ridiculous firstly she just happens to find where his girlfriend works then lives so on and on. This girl is looking for a flatmate Mia just happens to be offered the key to this girls flat from a neighbour and be able to enter her flat, then every thing that happens is just so far fetched the things she does are totally unbelievable. There was no one in the book from what I read that the author even made likeable. I think you get the picture.
I love this genre and only purchased this author as there is nothing available under the usual authors I buy. I already have all of Jill Mansell, Tasmina Perry Tilly Bagshawe Louise Bagshaaw, Patricia Scanlan, Danielle Steel, Milly Johnson. I buy all of these authors as they become available but this does not happen regularly. If you enjoy the work of these authors you will be disappointed with this as the quality of this book is nothing like the quality of these authors.
Yes she is always fabulous. Even she could not save this book for me.
All of them. There was nothing I liked about this book.
"So repetitive"
I loved the previous books in this series however the sex scenes are always so repetitive but this book is far worse Sam just kept repeating herself, as an example I want to lick your stars (tattoos) over and over again during the book. I have never known a family gathering (which is the basis of the series,) where the female characters talk about wanting orgasms ( "I want orgasms.) and talk to each other about "dick piercing" and so on. When I got to the bit where she was licking his scrotum I just had to fast forward. I enjoy sex scenes but with some variation not just repeating the same words over and over usually as soon as they arrived home her panties were wet as soon as he looked at her. Halfway thru this book I just fast forwarded all the sex scenes as they were so boring and had heard it all before. Would have loved more story or variation on the sex scenes this author is good a pity she just seemed to fill the book up repeating the same old thing. The other theme that seems strange as all the males are so jealous of the partner virtually after one meeting. I will try one more of her books probably in the hope her imagination has improved a bit.
"Hopeless main character"
I enjoyed this book as I have all of Mary Kay Andrews but the choices the main character made were quite ridiculous. Why would you move out of your home and just let the husband ruin her whole life surely the law would have stepped in. Do not know how he could get away with what he did nor understand how any judge would be allowed to act the way he did.
"Your usual from this author"
Another good read from this author. In places a bit far fetched but still entertaining.
I enjoyed the other books set in Paris from Juliette Sobanet but this book is absolutely pathetic I tried so many times to read it but finally gave up. Nobody
could be as stupid as the female in this book. Even the narrator who I normally enjoy sounded ridiculous through much of the story. An absolute waste of a credit.
"Not up to Milly Johnson's usual standard."
I love Milly Johnson books just buy them as they become available. This one however was okay but probably the least favourite of all her books.
Here Come the Girls was great I listened to it quite a few times but this one
definitely is a once only listen.
"Don't Bother"
I enjoyed the first book in this series but this was so far fetched it was ridiculous.
Who buys a house on the spot and can move in same day no matter how much money he had.
The sex scenes could have been cut by half or at least varied a bit so repetitive in the terrible breathy voice the narrator had. The book was very repetitive you could skip chapters and pick up where you left off. I skimmed thru this book.
"Penny Vincenzi of course it was good"
I love anything Penny Vincenzi writes but this was so worth reading. Good story great narrater. Well worth it.
"Good Read"
This was a fun highly unbelievable story but I loved it. I have purchased the next in series hope it is as good as this one.
"Another winner"
This is another of Catherine Bybee's books which I enjoyed. Just a light fun book.
I have purchased all her books and enjoyed them all.
Good narration everytime which for me makes the book.
"Loved it"
This was another fun read by this author. I have enjoyed every one of her books.
