At a size of 6.9 x 1.6 x 6.9-inches and a weight of 1.2 lbs, the device comes in either black or white for a price of $178.00. A bit high, but think of the savings by not using batteries.

BMW Mini Liquid Assets
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Games, Videos, Free Apps
Mini Financial Services has launched a new iPhone and iPod touch game dubbed MINI Liquid Assets. This is based on the retro water-filled handheld games where you pushed a button to get one object to hit another. Based on an exhibit originally designed for dealers, you shoot nickels into the Mini-Es to keep more assets while in the liquid. (We are guessing that they paid big bucks to develop the clever play on words.) The download is free at the iTunes App Store, but as this is also a commercial, the main menu has a link to your nearest BMW Mini dealer.

I love some of the details of this Cinderella princess party featured on Kara's Party Ideas. One of the things I love the most are the gold touches used on the desserts. They make the party look elegant and fancy- just what a princess party needs!
The party favors are great- the girls get their very own tiaras and they even had Cinderella herself visit the party. How fun would that be for your little girl on her birthday? Check out more of the details on Kara's Party Ideas, just click here.

Spying On My Wife
Surveillance gizmos are a part of my life. What do they reveal?
My wife was fine, but her 2005 Honda Pilot was totaled. On Interstate 95 between New Haven and Boston, the SUV had been picked up by the wind from a passing 18-wheeler and hurled against the median strip. My wife told me she wasn't speeding, but I didn't really believe her. So I bought a CarChip and (with her permission) installed it in our family's other SUV, a 1996 Jeep Cherokee. Now I know if she's been speeding or not–and a whole lot more.
The CarChip is a 35-by-48-by-25-millimeter data recorder that plugs into a connector found under the dashboard of most cars and light trucks sold in the United States and Canada since 1996. The connector lets the CarChip continuously record data, such as speed and acceleration, fed to it by the car's onboard diagnostics system. To get the data out of the chip, you just unplug it, attach it to a Windows-based computer, and run a downloader program.
The CarChip's reports contain an incredible amount of data. The report for each trip notes when the engine was started, when it stopped, and how fast the car was going every five seconds in between–all in the form of a pretty graph. The graph is annotated with warning lines that show excessive speed, as determined by the user (my settings are for 70 miles per hour), as well as incidents of sudden braking and acceleration. You can feed the data into a spreadsheet, and if you buy enough chips and special software, you can maintain records for all the cars in your family or corporate fleet.
Davis Instruments makes three versions of the CarChip. The basic chip holds 75 hours of data and costs $139. I bought the CarChip E/X, which holds 300 hours of data, can monitor any 4 of 23 engine parameters (including such geeky things as the oxygen sensor voltage and the engine load), and has an "accident log" that stores the speed of the car for the last 20 seconds before a crash. The E/X costs $179. Finally, for $199, the CarChip E/X with Alarm allows you to set alarms for excessive speed, hard braking, or sudden acceleration. This device is designed to deliver an audible warning when drivers are engaging in risky behavior.
But as any scientist will tell you, it's one thing to collect data and another thing to understand what the data actually mean. In the case of the CarChip, understanding requires a deep knowledge of the car's driver and her habits.
One evening two months after I installed the CarChip, I suggested to my wife that we light some candles, put on some soft music, gather at my computer, and review her driving record.
Although the CarChip records only how fast the car is moving, the patterns in my wife's daily routine made it easy for us to figure out where it had been traveling at which points on the graph. When the car starts at 8:50 a.m., drives three miles, and stops at 9:15 a.m., that's a pretty good indication that my wife has just taken our twins to school–and gotten there 15 minutes late. She does this with staggering regularity.

i use the colour light and use it to set my concealer under my eyes. bought it cuz people raved about it on youtube but i think its only average and drugstore powders could prob do the same thing for less. wont be repurchasing as its too priceyand i can easily find a less expensive powder that does the same job or better. i find that when i apply this powder ontop of my concealer it still tends to crease which is annoying, the new packaging for it is nice and the texture is nice but thats about it.

Excellent powder for days when you don't want to wear much makeup. I don't wear foundation anymore personally, but if I want a little coverage I opt for this. It's light, mattifying but not *too* mattfying, and leaves skin smooth and natural looking. Would work as an excellent setting powder as well to set foundation for a natural look. However, if you wear foundation daily and want a good setting powder, go for MUFE HD loose powder. Mac mineralize skinfinish natural is exactly that, a light finishing powder meant for a natural look. Very good color selection as well. I wear medium golden I believe. Doesn't clog pores, doesn't irritate skin, and doesn't dry out very dry skin either. It's a nice balanced powder. I would recommend this to almost anyone. If you have mature skin with lines I would use this sparingly, as with any other powder as it can settle into lines regardless of how "good" of a product it is. Excellent powder :) Would repurchase.

Although this was kinda pricey, the investment was worth it. It really does leave my face looking natural and does not make my face look cakey.

This powder is absolutely amazing!!! I must admit I wasn't expecting much....I don't use MAC often and associate it with bright eyeshadows and lipsticks more than skin/foundation. I bought this at a Cosmetics Company Outlet store for about $22 because I wanted something similar to the Sephora Microsmooth Baked Powder that I currently use (I heard it might be discontinued, but I'm not sure now) and this was about the same price. One day I decided to test it out on a lazy Sunday when I was just relaxing at home, and I had to do a double take when I looked in the mirror!!! I had some redness in patches around my face from acne and it was completely gone with one swipe of this powder. My skin looked matte and great, honestly like I had used a tinted moisturizer or something! This is a new fave of mine
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is honestly one of the worst products I have ever used.
I decided to use this on top of a moisturizer and a primer because I was quickly going out for a run and did not care to apply full makeup. It lasted about an hour before it severely oxidized on me turning my olive skin into an orange mess. This has never happened with any other powder so the primer and moisturizer did not affect this. I washed my face with my regular cleanser and I looked in the mirror and my face was horrible peeling. Every inch of my face was horrendously covered in acne, bumps and my OILY skin was very dry and peeling. I immediately applied moisturizer and it took me 2 weeks to recover. I was not able to use any other foundation as it would accentuate the peeling skin even more.
I attempted to give it another try as MAC would not take the product back and I was determined to make it work. I applied it over my foundation and not only did it bring back the same nasty reaction, but it oxidized, and did not control my oil at all in fact it probably made it worst.
Never again will I buy a mac face product.
Note: I have never had reactions to makeup nor do I have sensitive skin. Don't waste your money if you're looking for quality go to sephora and get yourself a better product.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Sensitive, Fair-Medium, Neutral
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
This my all time favourite product! I'm a NC25 and I use this as a setting powder all over my face. I'm quite fair during winter but I get tanned really easily so this with my NC25 foundation gives me the perfect colour all year round.
Just a tiny bit goes a a long way I just buff it all over once, and I'm set and flawless the whole day. It looks more shimmery in the packaging than it actually is, it leaves your face with no shine, just a subtle glow. Super natural finish.
During summer when my skin tends to get better and I don't need foundation I just use this powder for shine control.
The price for this is totally worth it, it lasts me a really long time too.
I can't express in words how much much I love this product. People always tell me my skin is perfect, as I'm not one to keep secrets I always tell, mineralize skinfinish by MAC. It's perfect!
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other

I use this did bronzer. I love it. Can be slightly orange at times.
I prefer too faced chocolate soleil bronzer to this now. But this one is still great plus cost a little less.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
I love this product. It literally perfects your makeup after applying your basic makeup (foundation, eyeliner, highlighter, bronzed etc). Gives you a matte look without taking the colour out of your face - which I believe, is hard to find.
Mac face products haven't worked on me in the past to be completely honest but this is really amazing and I'm sure almost everyone would feel the same.
Packaging 4/5: Wish it had a mirror for reapplication during the day.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Acne-prone, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Black
Definitely a HG and staple product in my make up bag. I love using the skin finish medium plus to set my make up. It's sheen and not glittery or too shimmery. Like the name of the product, it gives you a natural skin finish. It has just the right amount of sheen to deflect any imperfections such as scars, uneven skin tone, or blemishes. I am NC 35-40 and vanilla for MUFE Matte velvet and always use this over my foundation. People often comment and think I have smooth skin, but really- it's this powder that gives me that look :)
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
awesome for acne/oily/combination skin. MAC my favorite powder ever. Before I used YSL, I loved too but not good for all season.

It's just days before the Olympic opening ceremonies and some allergists are warning that London's air pollution could cause breathing problems for some athletes.
One specialist says the amount of nitrogen dioxide in London is comparable to the level in Beijing before the Chinese government banned half the cars there in preparation for the 2008 Games.
Doctor William Silvers warns that athletes with asthma or other exercise-induced respiratory problems could have trouble.
He says marathon runners are particularly at risk.

Al Jazeera Buys Current TV, Announces New U.S.-Based News Channel
The Keith Olbermann jokes began almost immediately after the announcement.
Al Jazeera announced on Wednesday that it has acquired Al Gore's Current TV network and will launch a U.S.-based news network headquartered in New York City this year. The network will have bureaus across the United States including in Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Miami and Chicago and is expected to hire about 300 journalists. The news comes nearly two years after network executives met with Time Warner Cable and Comcast in an attempt to find a place in the American market. On Twitter, many people like Late Show With David Letterman writer Justin Stangel joked about Current TV, a network with great potential that was, during its last days, perhaps best known for a messy breakup with mercurial TV personality Keith Olbermann.
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter was among those who joked about Olbermann upon hearing the announcement.
Al-Jazeera buys Al Gore's Current TV. This is shocking because no one has ever heard of Al Gore's Current TV— Justin Stangel (@Justin_Stangel) January 3, 2013
Another conservative commentator, Glenn Beck, tweeted about his network's attempt to buy Current TV, which was blocked because of conflicting ideologies.
Maybe Keith Olbermann can get on air again!Al Jazeera buys Current TV - lat.ms/TItQFT— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) January 3, 2013
And many, like Time columnist Glenn Greenwald, quickly defended the network against the unavoidable bigotry that filled the Twittersphere following the announcement.
Before Al-Jazeera bought Current TV, TheBlaze looked into buying it but we were rejected by progressive owners.glennbeck.com/2013/01/02/did… WG— Glenn Beck (@glennbeck) January 3, 2013
Of all the other reasons the Al Jazeera/Terrorists "jokes" are so stupid, it's owned & controlled by one of the US's closet ally regimes— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) January 3, 2013

SEPT 14 — The recently held Malaysian Public Policy Competition [MPPC] was extremely timely and much needed. Timely because Malaysia is at a junction where she can use a little hand from one of her largest growing demography and if harnessed properly, the effects could be disproportionately positive.
It's a much-needed one because there is a sense that Malaysia youth hasn't been properly integrated into the policy-making apparatus of the nation. We are heavily courted by both sides of the political aisle primarily due to our numbers at the ballot box rather than our brains. And that's just a waste.
But now that the competition is over and the hype that surrounded it has cooled off, it really begets the question of "Now what?" And that goes to the heart of what I intend to highlight today: that there isn't a systemic or sustainable platform that taps the cognitive surplus of the Malaysian youth – especially on the policy-making front. The MPPC and initiatives of its sort are great but they are ad-hoc at best and should be viewed as a jumpstart to something much more organised.
Public policy is not a craft that is honed overnight. It involves the tenacity to grab hold of an idealistic vision and dousing it with strong concentrations of realism so that it can be shepherded into the world with the least resistance from relevant stakeholders. I was told that a skilled policy maker knows how to construct something feasible without compromising its core ideals.
It's a tough balancing act that has seen many casualties and like any other discipline, it's something that gets better with practice. Currently in Malaysia, there just isn't a platform that allows youths to systematically dabble in this arena at an early stage.
Thus I think it's high time that we either have a public policy organisation that is run by youths or that major think tanks in Malaysia start moving in a direction that ropes in this demography in a more tangible manner. I would much prefer the latter as it's a process of integrating the abilities of the youths in an already pre-existing structure as opposed to starting from scratch. Needless to say such an overarching initiative isn't an overnight affair as well. It takes time, namely because there are resource constrains but we have got to start somewhere.
I feel strongly about this because I am a direct beneficiary of such a system in the United States. Public policy was the last thing on my mind when I stepped into the final stages of my academic cocoon. But I was at an event where the university clubs did their recruitment drive and there was an organization named the Roosevelt Institute Campus-Network that caught my eye.
It is a public policy student think tank that has members nationwide. It was via this organization that I got my first taste of this discipline and it ultimately landed me an internship with the City of Chicago at the Department of Aviation. Needless to say, I haven't looked back since. Such an experience need not and should not be exclusively mine.
It is imperative to know that public policy isn't just about politics, for the latter is the subset of the former. I know many of my peers who are passionate about moving this nation forward but are incensed by the state of our political environment. This initiative has to be beyond that and those who choose to partake must not be seen as "joining politics la tu!"
And the second myth that must be wrestled with is the notion that public policy is always about the big stuff. If taking on NEP, PPSMI or AUKU is your cup of tea, then be my guest. But it could also be about double parking, clogged drains or more books in the library. The most interesting assignment I had was to write a policy paper on fixing the men's urinals at O'Hare International Airport. Sounds trivial to you? It saved the city a couple of millions over the course of a few years.
In short, such a systematic initiative should be based on the premise that an idea however big or small, if done for the greater good can make Malaysia a better place. Malaysian youth have long camped in the arena of ideas. It's high time that they cross the bridge into the battles of reality.

Agreement with Ecclestone on possibilty of F1 returning to U.S.A.
Posted by Euan on May 21, 2010 | No Comments
F1 could return to the USA for the first time since leaving Indianapolis in 2007. The likely destination would be New York's Monticello track.
The Chariman of the Monticello Motor Club Bill McMichael stated that "There was some agreement that Monticello could host a race". However the circuit's owners would need to find around $150m to finance the recommendations by chief F1 track designer Hermann Tilke's . The track owners are hopeful a ten year deal can be secured with the FIA, which would start from the 2012 season of F1.
Bernie Ecclestone aims to have 25 race events on the F1 calender within the next 5 years, with India making it 20 next season.

Thermoluminescence Detectors
Thermoluminescence Detectors (TLDs) are based on the emission of Thermoluminscence (TL) on heating of previously exposed crystalline materials. The intensity of the emitted TL is a function of the dose deposited in the material, and can therefore be used for dosimetry. The production of TL in dosimetric materials is a complex, multistage process involving the transfer of charge and energy between different defect states within the crystal. The final measured TL intensity is the net result of the reaction between photons or nuclear particles of the irradiation field, the type, number and distribution of the defects present within the crystal at the time of irradiation and heating, the nature of the irradiated crystal and on other factors such as the irradiation rate, temperature, and energy of the absorbed particles.
The simplest model of the TL process involves a single state for holes and a single state for electrons. Electrons trapped at trap sites of the crystal are thermally elevated into the conduction band during the heating process. Once in the conduction band, the electrons are captured by holes trapped in luminescence centers, with emission of photons.
Several materials were found to be suitable for TLD dosimetry. The most common application of TLD dosimeters is in personnel dosimetry. Specifications (materials, geometry, shielding) of TLD dosimeters can be found in the paragraph on
TLD Badges.
The most common application of TLDs is in gamma ray and X-ray dosimetry. However, they can also be used for
neutron dosimetry
and for the
dosimetry of heavy ion beams

Irradiators (for calibration purposes) and readers are needed for the operation of TL dosimetry systems. The TLD Read Process follows strict guidelines.

Around the Boards: Ales Hemsky tradeable and hurt? Changes for the Blues? Leaf draft pick talk.
- Q&A from Edmonton Oilers: Ales Hemsky is under contract until 2011-12 at a resonable cap number of $4.1. No name was given as to who answered the fans questions, but whoever they are thinks Hemsky is not an untouchable, and 15 teams would easily pay a good price for him.
- Derek Van Diest of the Edmonton Sun: In keeping with the Ales Hemsky, he left last night's game after taking a hit from Michal Handzus. He'll be re-evaluated today. Coach Quinn said after the game "That second one, he was sent full-force into the boards. That was a hard hit and he got hurt. It doesn't look real positive right now."
- Dan O'Neill of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch: O'Neill doesn't come out and say it, but hints that coach Andy Murray's days could be numbered, even after finishing 2nd in Jack Adams voting last season.
- Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun: Burke is getting tired off all this draft pick talk, both acquiring high picks to make up for the traded picks, and the fact that the picks they gave away could be top 5.
But you can talk all you want about Taylor Hall and Tyler Seguin — the consensus top two picks for next spring's entry draft — Burke did as well before he pulled the trigger to land Phil Kessel.
"We discussed it internally," Burke said yesterday. "We said: 'what if the pick turns out to be Taylor Hall or Tyler Seguin?' and I was fine with that.
"We certainly didn't expect and don't expect it will be a No. 1 pick, but we knew going into it that it could be a possibility. But we also knew it would be the 15th overall pick. That's the risk you take."
Trade talks have slowed down, mainly just 'tire-kicking', and said his hands are tied because of the salary cap.
- Stephen Harris of the Boston Hearld: Tim Thomas is close to returning to the Bruins lineup. Backup Tuukka Rask has gone 7-2-1 this season.

DeLong named Regional Jail Authority director
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- After interviewing candidates behind closed doors for three hours on Thursday, state Regional Jail Authority members voted 6-0 to hire the agency's interim executive director as its full-time head.
Authority members voted to offer the position to Joe DeLong without discussion after the interviews.
DeLong, a former House of Delegates majority leader who ran unsuccessfully for secretary of state in 2008, has been serving as acting executive director since February. He said Thursday he wants to continue working on critical issues with staffing, procurement, and finances.
Last month, West Virginia had more than 1,800 prisoners waiting for a bed to open up in the state's 10 regional jails.
Overcrowding is clearly a problem, DeLong said, but added, "It's not an issue entirely within our control. Our concern is how to manage it."
John Lopez, policy and research director for the Regional Jail Authority, and Vicki Greene, administrator of the Southern Regional Jail, were also interviewed for the job. A fourth candidate, Richard Lisenby, was to be interviewed by telephone, but decided not to participate.
A state legislator said last week that Lopez had recently found a listening device in an air duct above his office. Delegate David Perry, D-Fayette, said Lopez had notified Charleston police, who turned the matter over to the FBI.
Also Thursday, Regional Jail Authority members:
The program takes data on minimum staffing requirements at each jail throughout the week, broken down into two-hour increments, along with the total of officers working that week. It then determines optimal scheduling, using variations of five eight-hour days, four 10-hour days, and a four-day workweek comprised of 8- and 12-hour shifts.
DeLong said the program should be able to cut costs for of overtime pay -- which topped $7 million in the 2011-12 budget -- in half.
He said the scheduling system will be tested in pilot runs in a couple of the jails later this year, but said feedback from staffers has been positive, particularly with its ability to eliminate mandatory overtime.
"The staff I've talked to are very excited about it, because they think it means they're going to get their lives back," said DeLong.
Currently, he said mandatory overtime creates a major employee retention problem in the jails.
"We burn these people out and they leave," he said.
Staffers who want to earn extra money will be able to sign up for voluntary overtime, he said.

So, I know many of you are extremely excited about The Hunger Games being released on DVD & Blu-Ray! Suprisingly, I finally just watched it and I have to say I really enjoyed it! (I know, I'm a little behind)!
I have teamed up with Front Page Freebies and a few other AwEsOmE bloggers to offer you this great giveaway! Easy entry! This will begin at 12:01am EST on 8/26 and end at 12:01am EST on 9/8.
About the movie
'Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the Capitol of the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. A twisted punishment for a past uprising and an ongoing government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which 'Tributes' must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen volunteers in her younger sister's place to enter the games, and is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy when she's pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives. If she's ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.'

|Hood's left arm was wounded at Gettysburg and rendered useless for the rest of his life. I'd assume this would mean he'd loose the use of his left hand as well. And according to this site, http://www.johnbellhood.org/anv.htm, Hood was forced to carry the left arm in a sling for the rest of his life. Now that doesn't Hood couldn't have had photos taken without a sling in them, but the thing that get's me looking at the photo is Hood's left hand. Unless left and right were flipped when put on the cover (I'll get to that in a minute) his left hand is on our right. But he's clearly grasping the left crutch in his left hand. In fact look at both hands, both are grasping the crutches so even if the photo had been flipped the left hand would still be grasping a crutch. If he lost use of his left hand he shouldn't be able to grasp a crutch. That would have to suggest three options to me.
Again I am assuming he lost the use of his left hand when he lost the use of his left arm.

How Many Calories Can You Burn Playing The Kinect and Kinect Games
The Kinect is a fabulous video game console as it is lots of fun and it helps you burn calories and lose weight. Different activities burn more calories than others.
Have you recently bought a Kinect? Are you trying to lose weight and burn calories using Kinect games? If so you may be interested in finding out how many calories you can burn playing the Kinect.
The Kinect is a hands free console from Microsoft, which enables you to play video games without having to use a controller. Sales of the Kinect and Kinect games surpassed that of the Wii during Christmas 2010. Many of the Kinect games are sports, dance, action or fitness/workout games. During January many people have set a New Years Resolution to get fit and lose weight. One such way they can do this is burn more calories than they eat. Playing Kinect and Kinect games is a great way to burn calories and help you with your weight loss. Many people are curious as to how many calories you can actually burn by playing the Kinect.
So how many calories can you burn playing the Kinect? Well the number of calories you burn depends on several factors including your weight and the game you play. The best Kinect fitness games to burn calories include EA Sports Active 2, Dance Central, Zumba Fitness, Dance Masters, Your Shape Fitness Evolved and Michael Jackson The Experience to name a few. When calculating the number of calories burned you need to remember that there is a certain amount of downtime while playing games. It takes a few minutes between sports events to start up the next event, or the next dance, so you should factor this into the calculation for calories burned. Additionally heavier people burn more calories for the same activity as lighter people.
Bunring calories with the Kinect is simple, and each game should calculate the number of calories you burn. I have seen reports that an average weight male burned 118 calories playing EA Sports Active 2 for 19 minutes. This roughly works out at 360 calories an hour, but of course depends on the type of sport he performs. You can attach a pedometer whenever you are performing track and field events and dancing to measure the number of calories burnt.
You should play the Kinect fitness, sport and dance games as part of your daily exercise routine. An hour on the Kinect could help you burn at least 300 calories a day. To read more about the best Kinect fitness games and burning calories using the Kinect see below.

MBS Inspiration
The MBS Group
is Europe's leading executive search boutique operating exclusively in consumer facing industries.
Ben Helfgott - an inspirational father
It is always interesting to see a marketing campaign that is based around a particular event. Often, those sorts of campaigns fall flat and can end up being quite naff. So, imagine a brilliant, authentic and genuine campaign so timely and poignant that it is not only perfect for Father's Day and The Olympics, but also for Euro 2012.

Can big companies care too?
In April 2008, just after the (RED) campaign was launched, The MBS Group hosted an event called "Conscience Consumerism: Shopping That's Good For The Soul." The evening was held five months before Lehman Brothers collapsed – the economy was booming and, while there were many companies who were working hard on corporate responsibility, there did not seem to be the same sense of consciousness of people and planet that there is today. When Marks & Spencer launched its brilliant ad campaign, Look Behind the Label, it was the first time a major high-street retailer had engaged its stakeholders on these issues on such a scale and it delivered the message through national advertising, in-store merchandising, employee communication and their website.

Companies that care
I don't know if you read the piece that I wrote about youth unemployment back in January? In response, I received some interesting emails about companies that are being proactive and that are really doing something to address the situation. I am sure that those are the companies that will benefit from their initiatives in the long run. As with all good initiatives, someone in every organisation has to be the champion and has to have the drive to make things happen. I passionately believe that business today has to be 'not only for profit'.

A helping hand
I really don't want to depress you, but the simple fact is that unemployment in the UK has risen to 2.68 million, with almost half that number being 16-24 year-old school and university leavers who have received little guidance on how or where to find work. The stark reality faced by young people today was the backdrop to a dinner my son, David, attended this week, led by one of this country's most successful and socially aware entrepreneurs. David and 10 other youngsters discussed the difficulties of finding work and the role business can play in helping them do so. Here are some of his thoughts:

The food revolution
This is my last piece on my trip in the USA looking at retail and consumer brands. It seems to me that there are just too many stores in too many identikit shopping malls and retail parks, with very little real differentiation. It feels unsustainable, especially as more and more people begin to shop online. However, what stood out on this trip were the individuals who have been consistently successful and who are doing things to give back to their communities. As you know, I went to California armed with a list of restaurants from the team at Jamie Oliver Enterprises. Included in my list was the Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Truck, which is doing an incredible job teaching people to cook. Impressive!

Not only for profit
Following on from Friday and the theme of giving back, I came across another brilliant entrepreneur who works in the 'not-only-for-profit' sector. He somehow reminds me of Jamie Oliver. Aged 31, having already started five successful companies, Blake Mycoskie (who lives on a boathouse outside Los Angeles), founded a shoe brand called TOMS, whose strap line is: "With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One."

I am beginning to think that in the world of retail, apart from independents, who have to be outstanding to survive, we are moving towards one (or, maybe, a very few) of everything: think about chains that sell electricals, music, video games, books and even wine. The majority are struggling for survival, many are in the intensive care ward and some are on their way to the angels.

I have been very busy this week talking about the Davies Report on gender equality, a subject that comes up at least once a year.

Only then will business reflect and serve the needs of the society in which we live. If I don't steer the thinking of board members to realize the potential of such hires, then legislation may be considered and we really don't want that to happen.

Who said that when big companies buy niche brands they usually destroy them? There are actually some very good examples of global companies that have managed to retain the spirit, integrity and authenticity of the niche brand they acquire. Just look at Ben & Jerry's. From a consumer's perspective, it's hard to believe that it is not still being run from a renovated gas station in Vermont, instead of from Unilever HQ! As I have mentioned before, Unilever has also managed to take the brand's corporate sustainability to another level – testimony to a great heritage. Which brings me onto The Body Shop.

Spotlight on: New Iberia
Hot sauce, bayous and southern charm are at home here
Just 30 miles southeast of Lafayette, New Iberia is right smack in the heart of gorgeous Cajun country. As the Queen City of the Bayou Teche, New Iberia also has many scenic byways, a historic district walking tour, and other fantastic attractions that will intrigue you with unique beauty.
The town was founded in 1779 on the fertile banks of the Bayou Teche by a group of Spaniards who called the town "Nueva Iberia." Following much deliberation, the name was eventually changed to "New Iberia" in 1847. From the time of steamboats until railroads came to town, New Iberia played a key role in commercial transportation. Due to its location at the start of a 25-mile bend in the bayou, New Iberia served as the perfect stopping place for merchants to unload their goods from steamboats, travel a short distance on land (less than two miles from where the bend began), and then reload their merchandise onto another boat, which saved them valuable time and money. The industry of lumbering came later, with the railroads in 1879, after a 20-year delay due to the onset and aftermath of the Civil War.
For a nice bit of history and a delicious meal, reserve a table at one of the oldest homes in New Iberia: Renoudet Cottage. This delightful cottage is home to Antique Roseville's Restaurant and Tea Room, which offers a splendid assortment of goodies. Named for the antique rose blossoms that grow around the home, as well as for the antique pottery known as Roseville, Antique Roseville is a picturesque place to visit for a walk through its gardens, to enjoy afternoon tea or to take advantage of their bed and breakfast options.
Experience the Bayou Teche Museum, a state-of-the-art museum with interactive exhibits focused on the culture, people and industries that proliferate in the area. Located in downtown Iberia, the museum boasts an impressive collection of fascinating artifacts. Visitors can join a group tour or go at their own pace. This educational museum provides an entertaining experience you won't want to miss.
Named for the early Spanish settlers who lived on its shores, Spanish Lake was once home to five prominent plantation homes: Dulcito Plantation, Keystone Plantation, Darby Plantation, Lady of the Lake Plantation and Segura Plantation. Today, only the original Dulcito Plantation home remains standing. However, a replica of the Segura Plantation has since been built as well.
Spanish Lake also serves as the home to a wide variety of birds, with over 53 species that nest at this gorgeous lake. Bird watchers have spotted well over 240 species over the years, including the hawk, woodpecker, heron, and warbler. You'll also be interested in checking out the intriguing wildlife in the lake or on its banks, including alligator, nutria and beaver, among other animals.
The small, shallow, and well-stocked Spanish Lake offers a tranquil setting for some ideal freshwater fishing near New Iberia. Many lake goers frequent the lake to enjoy the excellent lake views, for peaceful walks around the lake, and for picnic dinners with an ultimate view of the sunset.
If you haven't had your fill of bird watching at the glittering Spanish Lake, head over to the ultimate bird watching destination just minutes outside of New Iberia: Lake Martin Bird Sanctuary. The Lake Martin Cypress Island Preserve, near Breaux Bridge, boasts one of the largest concentrations of migratory birds in the world. Bird watchers flock here to see the impeccable views that can only be witnessed in this unique southwest Louisiana location.
Just a short, hop, skip and jump away from New Iberia is the famous home of Tabasco sauce on beautiful Avery Island. Since 1868, Tabasco sauce has been manufactured on the island, flourishing on the vine. The red peppers are grown in greenhouses and on acres of pepper fields across the island. Visitors enjoy touring the factory and taking in the extraordinarily beautifully colored flowers at the local Jungle Gardens. The fantastic 170-acre Jungle Gardens has a huge assortment of azaleas, bamboo and camellias. Quite the botanical treat, there is also an abundance of wildlife, with snowy egrets, deer, alligators and more.
Wind your way through rice and sugar cane fields, salt dome "islands" and marsh land on the Jean Lafitte Scenic Byway to get a glimpse of what life looked like in times long past. This picturesque drive gives visitors a glimpse of parts of the coastline easily overlooked or missed when passing through. Also, the Bayou Teche Scenic Byway is a must-see that sticks close to the banks of the meandering Bayou Teche, with its lush vegetation and moss-draped oaks, providing a firsthand taste of the vibrant Cajun culture.
The genuine, welcoming atmosphere of the South Louisiana marshes, bayous and majestic Spanish moss-cloaked oaks sets the precedent for a fantastic vacation no matter what your interests are. New Iberia, Louisiana, is a Cajun-flavored paradise that offers the ultimate pristine getaway with dynamic flavors that greet you at every turn.

Murdoch urges US immigration reformComment on this story
Media mogul Rupert Murdoch urged U.S. lawmakers to tackle far-reaching immigration reform, saying that scrapping quotas on special visas and promoting paths to citizenship would boost U.S. growth and innovation.
The chairman of 21st Century Fox and News Corp has also pressed for immigration reform in his native Australia in the belief that freer borders there and in America would boost trade relationships.
In an opinion piece published on Wednesday on the website of the Wall Street Journal, which he owns, Murdoch admonished opponents of such change in the United States "as being dead wrong about the long-term interests of our country".
"One of the most immediate ways to revitalize our economy is by passing immigration reform," said Murdoch, himself a former immigrant who became a naturalized American citizen in 1985.
He joined reform advocates who worry lawmakers might avoid taking up the thorny issue before November's congressional election, especially after House Republican Eric Cantor's shock defeat to a college economics professor who denounced him for being too eager to compromise with Democrats.
U.S. President Barack Obama, a Democrat, has been pushing new immigration laws to create a pathway to citizenship for some 11 million undocumented residents. But a bill that passed the Democrat-controlled Senate has been stalled in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.
Murdoch argued for giving non-criminals already living in the United States a path to citizenship, removing the quota for "H1-B" visas for highly-skilled foreign workers, and strengthening border security.
He pointed to a study by the Partnership for a New American Economy, a bipartisan group of mayors and business executives where he is a member, that says over 40 percent of Fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or a child of immigrants.
He said Obama was exercising "wise restraint" in holding back on taking executive action over provisions of immigration policy in the hopes of a more bipartisan approach.
"However, if Congress fails to even try to have this important debate, the president might feel tempted to act via executive order," Murdoch wrote. "I hope it doesn't get to that point, given the furious political firestorm that would result."

Editor's note: This column originally ran on May 30, 1999 when Ron Dzwonkowski served as the Free Press' editorial page editor.
Memorial Day has to be a little strange for Joe Beyrle, even after all these years. He pays tribute to the nation's war dead knowing that, for a time, he was among them. Even had a funeral with full honors.
"Oh, what my parents went through, " says Beyrle, (pronounced buy early.) "My mother would never talk about it. My dad wouldn't at first. But I finally talked to him at some length. The emotions ...well, it was quite a talk."
Beyrle, who will turn 76 this summer and lives in Norton Shores, south of Muskegon, was among the hundreds of thousands of young Americans who enlisted in the Armed Forces to fight World War II. A strapping 18-year-old, he passed up a scholarship to the University of Notre Dame and volunteered in June 1942 for what was then called the parachute infantry.
By September of '43, Beyrle was in England with the 101st Airborne Division. His commanders must have seen something of the rough-and-ready in the young man from western Michigan, for Beyrle was twice chosen to parachute into Nazi-occupied France wearing bandoliers laden with gold for the French Resistance. After each jump, he had to hide for more than a week until he could be returned to his unit in England.
Then came D-Day. Beyrle's unit jumped into France on the night before the invasion, assigned to disrupt Nazi defenses for the huge frontal assault.
The going was rough. Beyrle saw several planes full of his comrades go down in flames before he hit the silk from 400 feet up, landing on the roof of a church. Under fire from the steeple, he slid down into a cemetery and set out for his demolition objective, two wooden bridges behind Utah Beach.
Beyrle never made it. He was on the loose for about 20 hours while the battle raged on the beaches, and he did manage to blow up a power station and some trucks, slash the tires on other Nazi vehicles and lob some grenades into clusters of Hitler's finest. But then he crawled over a hedgerow, fell into a German machine gun nest and was captured.
What followed was a long ordeal of brutality and terror as the Germans herded the American POWs inland while being hammered by Allied bombs and artillery.
Beyrle was hit by shrapnel, but had to shake it off so he could apply tourniquets to two men whose legs were blown off. He escaped once for about 16 hours, but ran back into a German patrol.
Somewhere in all this chaos, Beyrle lost his dog tags, those little metal necklaces that identify military personnel. They ended up around the neck of a German soldier who was killed in France on June 10, wearing an American uniform, probably an infiltrator.
In early September, the dreaded telegram arrived for Beyrle's parents in Muskegon, the one that includes the nation's "deep sympathy for your loss."
The body believed to be Joe Beyrle was buried in France under a grave maker bearing his name. A funeral mass was held on Sept. 17, 1944, at St. Joseph's Church in Muskegon. Beyrle's name was inscribed on a plaque honoring the community's war dead.
Joe Beyrle, meantime, was being hauled by train all over Europe, locked in about a half-dozen POW camps, beaten, interrogated and nearly starved. But he never quit trying to escape, and finally managed it in January 1945, as the Nazi war machine was starting to crumble under the onslaught of Americans on the west and Russians from the east. Beyrle hooked up with a Russian tank unit and fought with them for a month before he was wounded and shipped to a hospital outside Moscow.
When he was able, Beyrle made his way to the U.S. embassy in the Russian capital, but he had a terrible time convincing officials of his identity, especially since he was listed as dead. He was actually arrested and grew so frustrated that he jumped one of his guards in an attempt to escape.
Fingerprints finally proved that Joe Beyrle was alive and well.
The next telegram to Muskegon carried a much happier message.
On Sept. 14, 1946, Joe Beyrle married his wife, JoAnne, in the same church where his funeral mass was held two years earlier. The same priest presided at both. Almost 53 years later, JoAnne says with a smile that her husband's war stories "get better every year."
This weekend, Beyrle will rejoin the 101st for ceremonies honoring its war dead at Arlington National Cemetery. Then he's off to Europe to walk once again over the ground where he fought and bled for freedom. He will even visit the grave that for months was thought to hold his body.
Beyrle is called on once in a while to tell his story to school classes studying World War II.
"Some of them aren't even sure what war I'm talking about, " he said. "They really don't understand that I felt it was my duty to volunteer, and what went on and what it was like. I tell them that if it wasn't for what we did, they would all be marching the goose-step today, and the first question is, 'what's the goose-step?'
"I grew up real fast. We all had to, " Beyrle said. "You just learn to believe that somebody up there is looking out for you.... I came home with such an appreciation of life, and I don't think I've ever lost it."
He came home with a handful of medals, too, but doesn't consider himself a hero.
"There were 200 guys in my unit that jumped into Normandy, and 50 or 60 were killed in action right there, maybe 40 were wounded, five or six were captured, " Beyrle says. "I'm just one of the lucky ones. The heroes are the guys who didn't make it back."

Mob of the Dead: Pop goes the weasel
1. Build the Plane on the roof.
2. Get the Hells Retriever Tomahawk. To find this unique weapon, youll need to get the Feed the Beast Achievement.
3. Fly the Plane on the roof. After crashing into the bridge, use the electric chairs to your right to return to Alcatraz Island.
4. Go to the prison hallway down from the Wardens Office. One of the cells contains a blue and green Afterlife poster. Throw the Hells Retriever at the poster to burn it off.
5. Down the hall, use the electricity box to enter the Afterlife and enter a new portal just to the left, leading behind the poster cell. Down this path, theres a crack in the ground with a dead body holding a spoon. Shoot it with your primary lightning attack, and youll hear a mysterious laugh.
6. Find the six skulls. They can be spotted while in Purgatory, and can only be collected with the Hells Retriever.
Skull #2: Nearby, look across the water for a small unreachable dock. The skull is located on the third wooden post from the right.
Skull #3: Through an opening on the left side of the roof, you can see two corners of the prison in the distance. The closer corner is where the skull is hidden.
Skull #4: Look out the window inside the Wardens Office to see a house outside. The skull can be grabbed from the houses roof, in the top left corner.
Skull #5: Across from the library, theres a skull hidden behind a locked cell. Look for a cell with a regular visible skull and hook.
Skull #6: At the far end of the cafeteria, look into the kitchen past the counter. Look on the left wall, the skull is hidden above a metal table.
7. Next, you have to complete the cycle two more times for a grand total of three (including your first trip). That means, you need to ride the plane to the bridge, use the electric chairs to return, then ride the plane to the bridge AGAIN and use the electric chairs AGAIN to return.
8. After three cycles are complete, travel into the Citadel Tunnels past the Showers. Down the stairs, youll remember the digital number display.
Input the codes in this order; 101, 872, 386, 481. The numbers will change and scramble after each successful input.
9. Collect the glowing lights. Floating lights will appear in a path, leading from the Citadel Tunnels up to the Roof. Each one will provide a secret audio history.
10. Board the plane with all your teammates and you in the Afterlife. That finally completes the Easter egg quest. Good luck...

How come her hands are ALWAYS dirty and disgusting?
Personal hygiene isn't a priority for alcoholics ,drug addicts and fucking nutjobs
LiLo: "I'm blowing you a kiss, Mr. Photographer!"
Photographer: "OH GOD, IT BURNS! IT BURNS! THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!"
Every breathalyzer within a 600-mile radius read off the scale shortly after this moment.
No Lindsay, you're not giving Peter Dinklage a bj…you're just drunk.
yes!, cup the balls
She knows she can't get pregnant from a blowjob, right?
Maybe it wasn't a blowjob, smarty-pants. It could have been anal, you know…Huh? Oh wait! Oops! Never mind.
So there I was tickling his balls and thinking at least I didn't have to kiss him…
Lindsay knows how to work the Mojo.One breath of cocaine makes that person who inhales do anything Lindsay says.
Just killed a Hobo, and then inhale that breath, "Yes a misunderstanding, off you go! "
"Blow" is just the name that its called. You don't actually blow it.
Poor thing gets confused between cocaine and cock.

The Portland Timbers come to town on Wednesday August 7th for the US Open Cup Semifinal match against RSL. This will also be the first time that former RSL midfielder, now captain of the Portland Timbers, Will Johnson, has returned to Salt Lake City. We are good friends with Will here at Keepin' It Real and we were able to give him a call the other night and catch up with our good friend. Here's what he had to say:
Q: How have you been doing in Portland?
A: I've been doing great. The family is great and they love Portland. My daughter is 9 months now and is running everywhere and biting everything. It's great though. We love it.
Q: What is it like playing for in front of the fans at Jeld Wen field?
A: Jeld Wen is a unique atmosphere and one of the best in North America. The fans are behind the Portland Timbers 100% and it's fantastic. It's really a dream come true to play in front of such passionate fans.
Q: How has it been playing with POR Head Coach Caleb Porter?
A: It's been good because we both came to the team around the same time. Obviously he being a new coach and me being a new player helped the transition for the both of us. I've learned a lot from him. He's an incredibly smart guy and an incredibly competitive coach who I've really enjoyed playing for.
Q: You came in to the team and were given the role to lead the team as Captain. What has that been like?
A: I've always tried to go about my business and lead by example whether I'm Captain or not. I have a few more responsibilities that are fun that I embrace as captain of the team. It's a big honor for me so I love to try and lead by example. As far as working hard and doing all of the things that I've established in my character throughout my career, these things have helped me become a good leader. It's been a smooth transition for me and it hasn't been as difficult as it may seem to someone on the outside might think.
Q: How did it feel to be nominated and play in your 2nd All-Star game?
A: The All-Star game is a unique event and it's a blast. The parties, meetings and getting to hang out with the superstars in the league, the very best players, is something that I really cherish and enjoy. It's fun to get to know guys. Most of the time, you only see guys from around the league when you play against them and obviously you never get to know them and just have a small conversation with them. That's what makes the All-Star game a blast. Obviously, we were disappointed in the result. We would've liked to represent the league a little bit better on the field. But just the overall celebration and the soccer hub that Kansas City is turning itself into is fantastic for the league and for the sport. It's a really unique occasion and one that I thoroughly enjoy.
Q: With only 3 losses on the season with a goal differential right behind RSL, what has been the secret to your success in Portland?
A: It's been the same philosophy as Real Salt Lake where we have a good group of guys all committed to the philosophy of the team concept which has served us well. We want to continue to make strides and we know we're not perfect. As far as being hard to beat it's all about being committed to the cause and having everyone buy into the same thing. Those are the characteristics that have made us a tough team this year.
Q: Wednesday night is the Open Cup Semifinal versus RSL, what will it feel like playing in front of your former hometown and some of your close friends?
A: To be honest I don't know. It's a difficult thing to try and imagine. I have so many good memories and so many good friends there. We won a championship together and obviously that bonds together a group of guys forever. But as far as the game goes, I represent the other team now. I'm no longer Will Johnson #8 who plays for Real Salt Lake. I'm a different guy now, the captain of the Portland Timbers, leading a bunch of guys who wanna beat Real Salt Lake. So it's a different situation. I have to stay focused and I can't let the emotional side of Salt Lake being my home for 5 years get to me. It's going to be all business and we're going to do our very best to get a result and head back to Portland.
Q: What things have you been doing to prepare for Wednesday's match and what do you expect from RSL?
A: We obviously expect a good game. They're a good team. We know we're going to have to play our best if we want to get out of here with a result. But at the same time we want to win so if they want to beat us, they're going to have to earn it. We've watched some video and discussed some things about how they play a little bit. But at the end of the day, it's 11 guys going against 11 guys and whoever performs the best that day will get the result.
We sure do miss Will and we'll always remember what he did for our club. But we are extremely happy for him and the success that he's having in Portland right now in his career. How about you?

Police say an 84-year-old western Pennsylvania man wounded a home invasion suspect with the gun he carried in the Korean War.
Elizabeth Township police say 25-year-old Raymond Hiles was captured not long after trying to break into Fred Ricciutti's home early Tuesday morning.
Ricciutti says he heard Hiles break a window and then confronted him, firing a single shot that grazed Hiles' neck.
Investigators say Hiles was arrested a few blocks away, carrying a screwdriver and a stun gun. He's being held on $100,000 bail on charges including criminal trespass and burglary.
Online court records don't list an attorney for Hiles.
Authorities say they don't expect to bring any charges against Ricciutti.

Don't reinvent the wheel for your book launch plan.
We mentioned Dan Blank at We Grow Media last week, but want to make sure you don't miss the post where he interviews Jenny Blake, author of Life After College: The Complete Guide to Getting What You Want. The real gem from this post is a spreadsheet Jenny created to manage the launch of her non-fiction book. We won't lie, the spreadsheet has 15 tabs and each one certainly won't be applicable to you, but it's worth picking off any ideas that you could integrate into your marketing and promo efforts.

2012 REmix arrangement & production by meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
This REmix contains only samples from the RECords resourced. No outside/extra RECordings were used.
this took nearly a full year after the original bass line & 'Ravens' RECords were released for me to 'crack' the idea for an arrangement that worked.
back in April 2011, i downloaded the audio stems that Albert, Sarah, and Matt uploaded to the site, and after trying some ideas that ended up not going aywhere, decided to put this REmix on hold until I could think of something suitable. Sometimes the best ideas come much later. Sometimes, it's better to put your impulses aside and allow time to pass...
in January 2012, I came up with the idea of looping Matt & Sarah's ending vocal lines which created the proper foundation, along with Albert's bass, for the song to move in a cohesive, structured direction. Everything else, the drums, guitar solo, format, followed suit.
And there you have it.
many thanks to Albert, Matt & Sarah <3
