Reply.com Hits the IPO Trail
TheStreet) -- Online auction site Reply.com has filed for IPO, the latest in a string of technology companies to take the public plunge in a tough market. The company filed its S-1 with the SEC and hopes to raise $60 million through its offering. Jefferies & Company and Piper Jaffray will act as joint book-running managers, with Needham & Company and Think Equity acting as co-managers.Reply.com's filing comes hot on the heels of the eagerly-anticipated IPO from online advertising specialist QuinStreet (QNST - Get Report), which received a tepid welcome from investors earlier this month. "We're still in a tough IPO market, without question -- there have already been seven postponements in 2010," Scott Sweet, senior managing partner at analyst firm IPO Boutique, told TheStreet. Companies going public at the moment, he added, should be extremely careful not to price their shares above what the market is willing to pay. Described as an online marketing specialist, Reply.com touts its ability to provide clients with locally-targeted information on prospects in areas such as automotive and real estate. The company's customers include Ford (Ford), GM (GM) Chrysler (GM) and Zip Realty. According to the company's S-1, Reply.com generated over 700,000 leads and worked with over 5,000 advertisers during the fourth quarter of 2009. The firm, which is profitable, grew its revenue from $23.3 million in fiscal 2008 to $34.3 million last year. IPO Boutique's Sweet, however, warns that companies like QuinStreet and Reply.com face a major challenge from Google (GOOG - Get Report), which has ramped up its online advertising efforts, launching services such as AdSense and AdWords in an attempt to monetize its vast search business.SAN RAMON, Calif.

text: Having booked an overnight stay for a firends wedding reception we looked forward to our stay. How wrong can one get it! The weather had not been kind and storms had bought power lines down causing the hotel to put in 2 large generators running 24/7 right outside our room - of which we had no warning despite checking in at a quiet time. We only discovered they were still running after the reception ended at approx 2am!!! Still after a sleepless ight we looked forward to a good hearty breakfast - to be honest I have had better quality and service at Bed & Breakfast establishments for less £. Would I go again? NO

I just had my baby last week and have EBF since he was born. Of course he lost weight in the hospital, not too much though. Since coming home he has gained some back, but not too much. He is wetting and pooping in his diapers, but the poopy diapers seem to be slowing down. It has transitioned from meconium to breastmilk poop.
When he nurses, it's only for a few minutes then he falls asleep. Like maybe 5 minutes. And he won't want to nurse again for 2-3 hours. Sometimes though, like last night, he nursed for quite awhile around 10 pm or so. Tomorrow we have a lactation consultant coming by with a scale to weigh him before and after a feeding to see how much he is getting. I know I have milk because when he pulls off he has some on his mouth.
Am I a new, worrying-too-much mom? Or should I be concerned with his short feeding sessions? He does get the recommended 8-12 feedings, but they are just really short ones. He doesn't act fussy or hungry. Mostly sleepy still.

1 Samuel 24:3-7New International Version (NIV)
3 He came to the sheep pens along the way; a cave was there, and Saul went in to relieve himself. David and his men were far back in the cave. 4 The men said, "This is the day the Lord spoke of when he said[a] to you, 'I will give your enemy into your hands for you to deal with as you wish.'" Then David crept up unnoticed and cut off a corner of Saul's robe.
5 Afterward, David was conscience-stricken for having cut off a corner of his robe. 6 He said to his men, "The Lord forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the Lord's anointed, or lay my hand on him; for he is the anointed of the Lord." 7 With these words David sharply rebuked his men and did not allow them to attack Saul. And Saul left the cave and went his way.

Invisible Adventure
December 9, 2015 | by Nicole Rudick
Watching a film about Claude Cahun.
When Alan Pierson conducts, he stands with his feet together, sometimes springing onto his toes and then plunging forward at the waist. Other times, he takes a step forward, only to return immediately to his original spot. He is tall and thin, and his reedy build exaggerates his movements: he could be one of Robert Longo's flailing suited men, but he is poised, like an exclamation mark.
He is conducting Alarm Will Sound onstage at Merkin Concert Hall as part of the Sonic–Sounds of a New Century Festival. He is also onscreen at the back of the stage, in a short film in which he conducts the same composition but without orchestra or audience. The live Alan Pierson conducts with his back to the audience in the hall, but onscreen he frequently appears frontally and in close-up, and his expression—of delectation and wonder—is fed by his body's exuberant movements.

The Verb to Be
February 19, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
André Breton's poem "The Verb to Be" originally appeared in our Spring 1985 issue.
I know the general outline of despair. Despair has no wings, it doesn't necessarily sit at a cleared table in the evening on a terrace by the sea. It's despair and not the return of a quantity of insignificant facts like seeds that leave one furrow for another at nightfall. It's not the moss that forms on a rock or the foam that rocks in a glass. It's a boat riddled with snow, if you will, like birds that fall and their blood doesn't have the slightest thickness. I know the general outline of despair. A very small shape, defined by jewels worn in the hair. That's despair. A pearl necklace for which no clasp can be found and whose existence can't even hang by a thread. That's despair for you. Let's not go into the rest. Once we begin to despair we don't stop. I myself despair of the lampshade around four o'clock, I despair of the fan towards midnight, I despair of the cigarette smoked by men on death row. I know the general outline of despair. Despair has no heart, my hand always touches breathless despair, the despair whose mirrors never tell us if it's dead. I live on that despair which enchants me. I love that blue fly which hovers in the sky at the hour when the stars hum. I know the general outline of the despair with long slender surprises, the despair of pride, the despair of anger. I get up every day like everyone else and I stretch my arms against a floral wallpaper. I don't remember anything and it's always in despair that I discover the beautiful uprooted trees of night. The air in the room is as beautiful as drumsticks. What weathery weather. I know the general outline of despair. It's like the curtain's wind that holds out a helping hand. Can you imagine such a despair? Fire! Ah they're on their way … Help! Here they come falling down the stairs … And the ads in the newspaper, and the illuminated signs along the canal. Sandpile, beat it, you dirty sandpile! In its general outline despair has no importance. It's a squad of trees that will eventually make a forest, it's a squad of stars that will eventually make one less day, it's a squad of one-less-days that will eventually make up my life.
Translated from the French by Bill Zavatsky and Zack Rogow.
You Are Quite Unnecessary, Young Man!
September 4, 2014 | by Dan Piepenbring
The English translation of Roberto Bolaño's excellent final novella, A Little Lumpen Novelita, is out this month. The book opens with an epigraph by Antonin Artaud, who was born today in 1896: "All writing is garbage. People who come out of nowhere to try to put into words any part of what goes on in their minds are pigs."
Since I read it about a month ago, I've thought of this quotation every day, often as I'm writing—you can imagine the rat-a-tat of my keyboard punctuated with an occasional "All writing is garbage." It's a bracing sentiment, taunting and misanthropic, and a truer one than most of us would care to admit. At the moment, it flies in the face of our glad-handing literary culture, where every book is a good book and every writer in every M.F.A. program partakes of a dignified struggle with Art.
Here's how that quotation, which comes from Artaud's The Nerve Meter (1925), goes on: Read More »
What We're Loving (The Love Edition)
February 14, 2014 | by The Paris Review
"As usual, the love plot is the least convincing aspect of the book," said my friend, handing me a crumbling, loved-to-death copy of Barbara Pym's last novel, A Few Green Leaves. It is not clear to me which part my friend found unconvincing—the growing attraction between the meek, widowed rector Tom and the awkward anthropologist Emma, or the obstacles to their match. (E.g.: Tom's dreary sister, a visit from Emma's old flame Graham, or the Oxfordshire village full of aging gossips who have nothing better to do than monitor the hand-delivery of casseroles to local bachelors.) At any rate, I bought the whole thing, and I believed that Emma did, too. As Pym's narrator observes, "Even the most cynical and sophisticated woman is not, at times, altogether out of sympathy with the ideas of the romantic novelist." —Lorin Stein
The weather yesterday was awful; this incessant wintry-mix business has got to stop. It has me thinking about Russian poems set during the siege of Leningrad, and last night my brain produced one of the most incredible jump shots since 2001: A Space Odyssey—from Boris Pasternak to Guns N' Roses. The former has a poem that begins "February. Get ink and weep! / To write and write of February / like bursting into sobs, with thundering / slush burning in black spring." Naturally, that led to "So never mind the darkness / We still can find a way / 'Cause nothin' lasts forever / Even cold November rain." The latter seems somehow right today—it's a song, after all, about the vagaries of love. In fact, the classic Guns N' Roses catalogue is brimming with Valentine's Day–appropriate songs: charged lyrics for lovers ("Said, woman, take it slow / And it'll work itself out fine / All we need is just a little patience") and the lovelorn ("To think the one you love / could hurt you now / Is a little hard to believe / But everybody darlin' sometimes / Bites the hand that feeds"). —Nicole Rudick
Some advice: Run, do not walk, to your love's home. Take her by the hand and recite this Restoration-era poem about premature ejaculation: "The Imperfect Enjoyment," by John Wilmot, the Earl of Rochester, a legendary libertine who slept his way around the Royal Court and succumbed, at age thirty-three, to venereal disease. Here, in words as lewd and depraved as anything uttered in 2014, he recounts one of his less inspiring performances. Making love, he can't quite contain himself, and "In liquid raptures I dissolve all o'er, / Melt into sperm, and spend at every pore." His lady unsatisfied, he finds himself unable to get it up again, and lambasts his errant penis. "Worst part of me, and henceforth hated most, / Through all the town a common fucking-post." If that doesn't make her swoon, gents, nothing will. —Dan Piepenbring
When Dan asked us to recommend love-themed staff picks, I was all set to talk about one of my favorite films, the 1945 Powell-Pressburger classic I Know Where I'm Going! Then I saw it described by Vanity Fair as "a cult among poetic bluestockings" and my enthusiasm dimmed somewhat. But it deserves whatever following it has—incidentally, Pauline Kael and Martin Scorsese are in the cult, too—and I can't think of a more romantic movie than this tale of a willful young woman stranded in the Scottish Hebrides. (When I describe it like that, I can see why the poetic bluestockings are so excited, but don't let that put you off!) —Sadie Stein Read More »
Sjón, Björk, and the Furry Trout
May 16, 2013 | by David Bukszpan
When Icelanders talk to Americans about Iceland, sooner or later talk is going to turn to fairies, or hidden people, or elves. And while it seems many Icelanders do truly believe in those things, often you'll get a response like the novelist Sjón gave Leonard Lopate the other day: "If you actually lean on an Icelander, most of us will confess to believing that nature has the power to manifest itself in a form understandable to humans. So the hidden people, you know, we would say, 'Well of course I don't believe that there are actually cities inside our mountains, but it's possible that nature has a way of manifesting itself in a human form to, you know, have an interaction with the humans.'"
Similarly, when Americans talk about Iceland, sooner or later (probably sooner) we're going to start talking about one specific fairy, or hidden person, or elf. And despite my not having any photos or videos to back it up, you'll have to believe me that last week at Scandinavia House, the sprite-like Reykjaviker you're thinking of did indeed manifest herself in a striking, stiff, white-and-purple dress for a ten-minute interaction with book-reading humans on behalf of her longtime friend and collaborator Sjón.
It's a young crowd, trendy, expectant, giddy even, though I'm surprised to see so many empty seats. It turns out Scandinavia House closed their RSVP list weeks earlier, almost immediately after announcing the event, grossly botching the numbers and no doubt needlessly turning away scores of would-be attendees. But it's no matter to those of us here—in fact it makes the evening feel all the more intimate.
It's a coming-out-from-under-the-mountain kind of moment for Sjón himself. Although a well-known writer in Iceland, if Sjón's name rings a bell at all in the States it's been as Björk's frequent lyricist—notably on her Biophilia album, her 2004 Olympic theme song, and Dancer in the Dark, her Lars von Trier film. Things have changed for him in a hurry though, as Farrar, Straus & Giroux sent the poet/novelist on a U.S. tour (Seattle, Portland, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, and New York) to promote the three simultaneously released books: the full-length From the Mouth of the Whale and the novellas The Blue Fox and The Whispering Muse. Move over Blue Lagoon, Americans are about to have a new second-favorite Iceland reference.
The five-city, three-book, one-author tour culminates in the event at Scandinavia House, where Björk treats the assembled to the kind of intimate, I-knew-him-when introduction usually reserved for siblings at wedding parties. Then again, it quickly becomes clear that there's a sort of brother-sister camaraderie between the two. Read More »
Diego, Frida, and Me
March 20, 2013 | by Molly Crabapple
When a woman artist looks for her forebears, she sees a void.
There are, needless to say, great female artists. There's Tamara de Lempicka, queen of art deco. There's Artemisia Gentileschi, forever in paintings, cutting off her rapist's head. There's love-ravished Camille Claudel, making the hands of her lover Rodin's sculptures before being institutionalized for forty years. There are Mary Cassatt's paintings of children. But it can't be denied: the canon of Western woman's art is nothing compared to the canon of Western woman's writing.
Noted Audre Lorde, "Of all the art forms, poetry is the most economical. It is the one which is the most secret, which requires the least physical labor, the least material, and the one which can be done between shifts, in the hospital pantry, on the subway, and on scraps of surplus paper." While a writer may require only a room of one's own, an artist needs years of training, muses, a studio, canvas, paints, patrons, and, fundamentally, a world that lets her be grubby and feral and alone.
Growing up, the women in art history who inspired me were primarily models: Victorine Muerent. La Goulue. Far from pampered, indolent odalisques, these are sexy, tough, working-class women, often with backgrounds in the sex trade. Notable contrasts to the genteel girls who studied flower painting along with piano and embroidery, my archetypes were flamboyant, glamorous self-creations, unabashedly employing themselves as their own raw materials in a world that would give them nothing else. I too worked as an artist's model. For an artist, the job is a paradox: you're clay for someone else's creation while longing to make your own. Read More »

Aubrey De Grey Talks Regenerative Medicine, Aging & Rational Denial of Aging Process
In an effort to ignite regenerative medicine and transform the way we think about health and aging, Aubrey de Grey spends his time on airplanes between England and Silicon Valley, as well as to conferences and events where he can evangelize his message to those who help accelerate his mission.
How should we go about developing medicine in the near future? he asks a large group who showed up in Louisville for Idea Festival, who committed their time to be there because they're interested in innovation, advanced learning and making the world a better place.
He encouraged people to think about aging and dying differently. Death from aging is not only "natural causes, it's anything that mainly kills older people."
A few stats: about 150,000 people die per day worldwide, two thirds of them die of aging which equates to 100,000 per day. In the USA, the proportion is over 90%.
None of us are getting any younger and those of us who live in the United States know how broken our healthcare system is...we don't like to think what that means while we're still under 50 because frankly it's too painful to go there. It's only when we see our aging parents go through the system, where things don't work, their live savings are wiped out within months, service is inefficient and disagnoses happen more than they should but because traditional doctors aren't thinking holistically rather than incompetence.
Aging is considered ghastly but also inevitable. It is rational to put ghastly but inevitable things out of our minds, even if we have to be amazingly irrational in order to do so. He calls this rational denial.
"But what if that inevitability became unclear?" he asks. The focus of his talk revolved around the following issues and how we can make a difference:
- Repair versus retardation.
- Specifics: the seven types of damage
- Intracellular junk/medical bioremediation
- Longevity: escape velocity: the concept
- Some evidence that LEV is realistic
De Grey made it clear that his focus is centered around health not longevity which is where regenerative medicine comes in, which he defines as any intervention that seeks to restore a tissue/organ to its state before it suffered damage.
Aging is essentially when metabolism ongoingly causes damage and damage eventually causes pathology over time. Options for intervention divide into two different approaches: the gerontology and the geriatrics approach.
The geriatrics approach is better than nothing he says but the gerontology approach isn't much better.
Damage can be slowed down to some degree and other things along the way can be repaired. He asserts that there are seven deadly things that make up damage in our bodies:
- Junk – inside cells
- Junk – outside cells
- Cells – too few
- Cells – too many
- Mutations – chromosomes
- Mutations – mitochondria
- Protein Crosslinks
If we can develop bioremediation in a way that is sustainable, we can tackle aging diseases that cause damage and eventually lead to our death. Robust human rejuvenation he says, can give the middle-aged 30 years of extra healthy life.
Repairing damage periodically can buy us time. In other words, you can slow aging down.
First generation therapies should be likely to transform the health quality of a 60 year old into a 90 year old body. If you start early, you benefit from buying time and putting off some of the damage from aging by 20-30 years.
Then, 20-30 years later, you can do another therapy that has decades of research and improvement.
Essentially therapies double efficacy only every 42 years. The result is that you can add decades to your life, particularly if you start the therapies early enough.
In Aubrey's words: "we have a humanitarian duty to fix aging." Hear hear Aubrey. Hear hear!
Maverick Aubrey de Grey is the editor-in-chief of the journal Rejuvenation Science and co-author of the 2007 book Ending Aging. He challenges the most basic assumption underlying the human condition —that aging is inevitable. He argues instead that aging is a disease --one that can be cured if it's approached as "an engineering problem." His plan calls for identifying all the components that cause human tissue to age, and designing remedies for each of them —forestalling disease and eventually pushing back death…providing for an indefinite lifespan. He calls this approach Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS).

Idea Festival 2011 Recap: From Robots, Art & Science to Education, Politics & Innovation
The Idea Festival is an annual event held in Louisville Kentucky every year. Founded by Kris Kimel, his vision is centered around the following belief: "with innovative ideas we create the future."
I've been meaning to attend for several years and finally made my way down to Louisville this past September for three days of inspiration and electric energy across the areas of science, politics, healthcare, education, music, design, technology and the arts.
Unfortunately, most of us have little opportunity to get out of our daily worlds (and ways of thinking) to learn about, discuss and explore how to integrate diverse and important ideas and innovations. This event's goal is provide a unique "space" for the convergence of great ideas from leading thinkers across the nation and around the globe.
To give you an idea of the diversity of the event, imagine listening to an Army combat veteran Wes Moore talk about his book about a child with the same name who was convicted for felony murder (my write-up here) and Cesar Millan, the world's foremost canine rehabilitation specialist and then Aubrey de Grey about rejuvenation science and aging (my write-up here), and Maz Jobrani on what its like to be a Middle-Eastern American in the 21st century, all within one morning?
Or, hear physicist and author Leonard Mlodinow explore the extraordinary extent to which randomness, chance and probability influence and shape our work and everyday lives? And while your head is full, energetic violinist Lindsey Stirling comes out on stage and has you tapping your foot and smiling ear-to-ear. (write-up on Linsey here).
Inside the Ideas Festival, there were other sub-events, such as the Kentucky Film Educator's Summit, which was free and open to the public. Kentucky's foremost film educators gathered for a unique symposium to discuss the rise of cinema studies and filmmaking programs across academe, their evolutionary future and what it takes for such programs to take root, thrive and remain relevant.
And if science and film isn't your thing, how about a discussion about the science of kissing, which Sheril Kirshenbaum led on the first morning. Azure Antoinette read poetry, Ruby Lerner from Creative Capital brought in a number of genre-bending artists to show off their latest on stage (and at evening receptions), and leading geo-strategist and author Parag Khanna led a discussion around the rapidly shifting political, energy and economic landscape. (my write-up of his talk here).
Installation artist Shih Chieh Huang wowed attendees with his innovative creativity (my write up here).
Patrick Renvoise taught us how neuromarketing can be used to sell more effectively (write-up in depth can be found here), and the Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata took us on a wild journey of jazz, funk, rock and soul and what The Sound of Music sounds like with a layer of a little of all of it on top of each of its classically renowned songs. (my write-up of the experience can be found here).
Aneesh Chopra even showed up from the White House to talk about Obama's latest agenda (my extensive write-up here) as did the local mayor Greg Fischer. We headed to the Churchill Downs for taste after taste from the top chefs in Louisville. (I wrote about it extensively here). My write up of Suketu Bhavsar's talk here.
Other more extensive write-ups include how Elizabeth Scharpf is transforming women's lives in Africa one banana leaf at a time, John Moore on the engaged patient and the future of medicine, Georgia Tech's Rosa Arriaga on the Power of Human Censors, and Cory Kidd with his dieting & weight-loss robot Autom. Gambling addict Tim Donaghy talked about the power of addiction and learning from his mistakes. (and how this can be applied to other aspects of our lives outside addictions).
During my Louisville journey, I discovered local artist and glass blower Stephen Rolfe Powell, whose work is nothing short of awe-inspiring. While I was there, I also did a handful of food reviews, so be sure to check out the Kentucky and food/wine categories on We Blog the World for local restaurant and cafe write-ups.
Below is a shot of four of the ten of so bloggers on board for Idea Festival's creative journey. (taken at Churchill Downs, the same downs that hosts the Kentucky Derby every year).
Brown Hotel French chef Laurent Geroli brought a group of about ten bloggers/writers into his kitchen and prepared a 4 course meal in front of our eyes talking us through each dish (Kentucky bourbon was on the table too of course) - check out the food/wine categories as there's an extensive write-up of our experience including 3 videos (also on our YouTube channel). Below is a shot of all of us at the end of the meal. (they gave us very cool personalized chef jackets as well). My write-up of the Brown Hotel restaurant experience can be found here.
Also, my write-ups of Mayan Cafe and Harvest Restaurants can be found here. Below is the infamous pork entree at Mayan Cafe. (definitely order if you are going:)
Idea Festival Labs showcased a number of topics including the Cultural Landscape in and around Louisville (including Ohio River corridor and Yew Dell to name a few), Reimaging the University, Perfecting Our Entrepreneurial Imagination, and Changing the Way Louisville Eats (and the impact of the change on overall health, environment and economy).
ARZU founder Connie Duckworth also discussed her journey from Wall Street to the dirt roads of Afghanistan.
Below is a video clip of an interview I did with founder Kris Kimel on the last day. Listen to the inspiration behind Idea Festival in his words. As for me? I couldn't stop thinking, creating and being inspired for four days and the sheer volume of my blog posts is one indicator of the extent of that inspiration. Meet Idea Festival's founder:

Wanna Shed a Few Extra Pounds? Meet Autom, the Dieting Robot & Weight-Loss Coach!
I met Cory Kidd in Kentucky recently at the annual Idea Festival, who flew south from New England to show off Autom, a robot designed to help people with their diets. It is up to the user to enter in the details of their diet, such has their fitness level and then Autom uses its databank to interact with the user, engage in conversation and give you feedback.
Along with keeping a record of what you have been eating throughout the day, Autom inspires you to look good and remain in shape. She comes complete with an artificial female voice for commands and has a touchscreen belly for all kinds of input. Describes one site: "it is harmless, and like a human it won't rebuke you for eating one extra dessert but would surely keep account of the same." The selling price being estimated is around $600 or $500.
Think of it as a weight-loss coach, but a robotic one, one who knows how much you've been exercising, and a whole lot about your diet. With a touch of your finger, she knows if you're in a good mood or not as well. Below is a video I shot of Cory explaining how she works:

Aneesh Chopra: Blue Buttoning Our Own Data Will Fuel Innovation & Empower Americans
If you haven't heard of the name before, Aneesh Chopra is the United States Chief Technology Officer, where he serves as an Assistant to the President and Associate Director for Technology within the Office of Science & Technology Policy. Whooah Nelly, that's a mouthful of a title.
In other words, he works to advance the President's technology agenda by fostering new ideas and encouraging government-wide coordination to help the country meet its goals from job creation, to reducing health care costs, to protecting the homeland.
I had a chance to listen to him speak at the Idea Festival recently, where his talk focused on the President's mission and goals, with a central core theme to make it happen: working from the bottom up, not the top down and opening up data so others can create and innovate with it, and we, as a nation, can thrive.
Here's what they're currently focused on within the above framework:
- Putting more people back to work
- Boosting access to capital for high growth companies
- Turning job seekers to job creators
- Unleashing the mobile broadband revolution
- Modernizing 35,000 schools
- Making government services transparent to job creators
- Open Government aka the Start Up America initiative
- Patent reform
- Catalyze breakthroughs
Technology was a big part of his message as he echoes Obama's pitch, "for our families and our businesses, high speed wireless service and mobile is the next train station, it's the next off-ramp..it's how we'll spark innovation, new investment, new jobs." He also referenced Silicon Valley start-ups on more than one occasion, including Instagram and Crowdflower.
He sees cloud computing and mobility unlocking major potential and accelerating productivity in key sectors.
Aneesh says that there's an aministration commitment to unleash market opportunities by framing current or proposed policies to inspired entrepreneurs and gaining valuable policy feedback for iteration with an emphasis on healthcare, education and energy.
Where is the puck heading?
"We need breakthroughs," he says. "The only way is to tap into new hubs outside Silicon Valley." Hear hear Aneesh.
He also talked about education dominance, pushing software that adapts to how students learn, inspiration for the proposed ARPA-ED. They want to open up the data to teachers and make it accessible to them and their students, regardless of where they are in the country.
Another challenge they face he throws the audience's way is the clean energy revolution. They're hoping that ARPA-E investments and NIST standards activities will spur creativity.
He cites the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as an example, America's center for weather data. The weather industry is worth about $2 billion he reminds and "they're fueled because of open government data."
Aneesh adds, "we can also encourage market transparency." Healthcare.gov is a comprehensive catalog of insurance options, an effort to create more transparency than ever before. You'll be able to find pricing data, how often an insurance company charges a premium, and how often were people rejected (denied coverage for whatever reason).
He also mentioned "Blue Button", a public/private initiative that scales, where veterans can download their personal health information from their My HealtheVet account. My HealtheVet users who receive VA health care services can also refill their prescriptions and view their appointments, allergies, and laboratory results online.
Why not transfer that kind of tool to other areas and industries he says, such as education. "Imagine if every student could get a downloadable document of his/her assessment, a personalized platform that translates from student performance to market reality. We need personalized platforms for each of our children that can translate into something meaningful. This is the kind of thing that can fuel products and services. Find where the data sits and find out a way to liberate that data."
He adds, "We're liberating government data & if people can become billionaires because of it, God Bless." The audience laughs.
He continued to push the open government throughout his talk including in the Q&A at the end, which was incredibly well received. (note: while the audience had visitors from the west coast, DC, the north, NYC and other places, there was a large number of locals - aka the midwest meets the south...in other words, family values and education are high priorities).
Certainly blue buttoning our own data is going to fuel innovation and empower individuals. Isn't it where we have to go? If we don't, we become victims rather than creators of our own lives and destinies in more ways than one.

Parag Khanna on How to Run the World by Turning it on its Head (From the Bottom Up)
In his Idea Festival talk, Parag Khanna addressed the shifts we're seeing around the world. He thinks what is happening in the Arab world is the beginning of what we're going to see elsewhere.
Almost all Arab countries are post colonial countries. He says, "most of the 200 countries in the world look a lot like the Arab countries falling apart in the last six months."
And, asserts Khanna, "we're in for a decade of this at least and watch this unfold for a very long time. At least 80 or 90 countries are experiencing the same kind of decay that a lot of the Arab countries are today. Expect to see a lot more falling regimes."
We have to not just focus on economic and political issues in a silo. Things are complex so rather than look at how the UN is defining global progress, look at how private enterprise can assist as well. For example, what happens at the Clinton Global Initiative is very different than what happens in the UN, since it is much more representative and accurate of who has the real power.
It includes CEOs, entrepreneurs as well as politicians. This translates into offers from companies who can help facilitate change at a global level. For example, a mining company pledged to support a workforce in a South American country. We should be looking at ways to improve the ways we can measure real change in people's lives.
The power has shifted when you have cities and mayors who are key in climate change decisions, the fact that that the Gates Foundation commits as much money as most governments do and that Walmart has more gas emissions coming out of their buildings than the country of Ireland.
Diplomacy is the glue at which we urn the world – it's the relationships, the alliances, the solutions. It's the most important thing that we do and don't even realize it. Khanna notes that we live in a world today where there's more diplomacy than ever before and yet it's less organized.
How do we sort out the moss pit of what exists with political leaders today? He recommends the following principles:
- Diplomacy needs to be inclusive. Anyone who wants to be part of a resolution to a problem should be involved.
- Decentralization – solving problems at the source. People in developing countries with real problems don't need policy papers or money that is stored in centralized funds somewhere in Paris. It's much better to give money to people directly if you can through micro-finance through organizations like Kiva.
- Become our own diplomats: each of us needs to think of ourselves as diplomats. Within ten years, everyone on the planet will have a mobile phone or a phone within their immediate family. Everyone will be able to reach everyone else. A lot of these phones will be smart phones and will have telebanking and mobile banking baked in….the latter is growing incredibly fast in Africa.
He ends his talk by saying "the best global governance is local governance," and working from the bottom up, not the top down.

Is the Universe Everything There Is? On 20th Century Science in Many Worlds
The Idea Festival, based in Louisville, Kentucky kicked off officially on Wednesday, September 21 at the Kentucky Performing Arts Center, located on a main drag of Louisville which is littered with art galleries, hotels and a restaurants.
Speaker Suketu Bhavsar decided to take the audience to the fourth dimension and show us simplistically (if that's possible with a topic like this), what the impact of an infinite universe really is.
Albeit a scientist, Bhavsar has a unique right brain charisma on stage and often threw in humor as a way to lighten his somewhat heavy talk. "If the universe is everything there is, what is there to talk about?" he asks the audience. "Time, but time is relative," reminds Bhavsar. "And, space is relative."He shows us a few examples demonstrating how space has geometry that depends upon the density of the universe.
The whole universe is full of galaxies mostly with empty space in between and every one of these galaxies is moving away from us. The space in between those galaxies is actually what's expanding. Space is stretching out between galaxies all the time.
The geometry of our universe is flat and this means that our universe is endless and it's infinite. An infinite universe leads to the first and simplest kind of multiverse, he suggests. If we go far enough, then there could and would be another you elsewhere. In other words, everything is possible in an infinite universe.
He asks, "how far until there is a copy of the visible universe?" and refers to Brian Greene's name for it: Quilted Multiverse.
In the early universe, the quantum field of the rapidly expanding space drops to a lower value in random regions. These regions are bubble universes.
To give us an image of bubble universes, he asks us all to imagine that we have a room full of steam that goes forever and little droplets fall out of steam.
Regarding these bubbles and how they relate to each other:
- Each of these bubbles will continue to expand and have an infinite spatial galaxy.
- Each bubble universe has the potential to create daughter universes that inflate and become independent universes creating even more universes.
Another possibility is that not all the dimensions are curled up. In the Braneworld scenario, ours and many other 3-brane universes could be residing alongside each other and we wouldn't know about it.
This moves us into Quantum mechanics, which is not deterministic like Newtonian mechanics he says. Quantum mechanics means that there are many arrays of things that could happen, allowing for many outcomes. AND, many things happening in multiple universes all at the same time.
Bhavsar challenges us to also read another book by Brian Greene: The Elegant Universe, and to contemplate the following questions:
Is this science? What is consciousness? What is time? Can we ever truly understand time? What is reality?

Idea Festival: New Ideas Create the Future
We're planning to go to Idea Festival this year as a media partner which is exciting on multiple levels. The whole premise of the event is that "new ideas create the future."
Much of the mesmerizing innovation that we are witnessing in the 21st century emerges at and from the intersections of many disciplines – science, the arts, business, design, technology, education, medicine and more. The IdeaFestival provides the opportunity for people across all of these disciplines to group together in a unique "space" for the convergence of ideas.
Now in its eleventh year, the IdeaFestival will be held in Louisville Kentucky from September 21-24, 2011. The event is a unique non-linear event designed to stretch people's horizon's and promote breakthrough thinking... utilizing multiple venues to showcase, discuss and "connect" important ideas in science, the arts, design, business, film, technology, education, etc.
More from the ground, but to give you a taste of the line-up and speakers so far, take a look at their schedule.

LIUNA Prods Congress To Pass OSHA Reforms, Support PAWA04 . 25 . 13
PAWA legislation would modernize the 42-year-old Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) in industries that have outpaced decades-old government regulation. The act clarifies an employer's duty to provide a safe working environment; improves OSHA reporting, inspection and enforcement efforts; extends OSHA protections to 8.5 million American workers not currently covered; protects workers who blow the whistle on unsafe conditions and increases penalties for those who break the law.
OSHA Updates Worker Safety And Health Resources01 . 24 . 12
OSHA has published new and revised information that explains workers' and employers' rights, as well as how to protect workers from hazards in the construction, general, and maritime industries.

Whenever I wander a few blocks from the newsroom, a pleasant young activist wearing environmentalist gear will approach me and politely inquire as to whether I "have a few minutes to spare for the environment."
No is invariably the answer, though I don't find the request objectionable, only mildly irritating. Everyone has the right to proselytize, after all, to try to convince others that their moral, religious, economic, political or ideological notions are best. Even my fellow atheists are getting in on this game.
If you agree, then you might be shocked that recently three evangelicals were arrested by police after they were caught handing out religious paraphernalia outside an Arab-American festival in Dearborn, Mich.
A U.S. District Court judge had implausibly banned all groups from distributing any literature, even on sidewalks around the festival. The cops, then, were impelled to deal with these four troublemakers, who were distributing snippets from the Gospel of St. John.
Yet beyond the seemingly flagrant attack on constitutional rights, there is another issue worth pondering: our aversion to conversion.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a former Muslim human rights activist who lives under armed guard for fear of her life, is the author of the powerful new book "Nomad." As secular as they come, she believes that Christians should become more active in countering the growing reach of Islamic radicalism in the Western world with their own outreach program.
"Next to every mosque, build a Christian center, an enlightenment center, a feminist center," Ali recently explained. "There are tons of websites, financed with Saudi money, promoting Wahhabism. We need to set up our own websites -- Christian, feminist, humanist -- trying to target the same people, saying, 'We have an alternative moral framework to Islam. We have better ideas.'"
Do we have better ideas?
Let's concede that not everyone agrees. During an interview with Ali, Tavis Smiley went so far as to assert that more people are murdered ("every day") in the name of Christianity than are murdered under the banner of Islam -- which is so preposterous it deserves no answer.
I am no Christian, never have been. But even a God denier can't alter history. Though some of us tend to focus on the ugly aspects of religion (and there are plenty), it would be difficult not to concede that liberty, tolerance, basic rights of women, education, free inquiry, free speech and freedom of religion thrive in predominantly Christian nations.

The late-December/early-January "Profiles in Advocacy" column tends to be the one closest to my heart, for a couple of reasons.
First of all, it marks my column anniversary, as my first piece was written about 2012 Dr. A. Brad Truax Award-winner, Liz Johnson of Christie's Place.
Secondly, to honor World AIDS Day (Dec. 1) and AIDS Awareness Month (December), I have a tradition of dedicating each year's issue to the individual honored by the San Diego HIV/AIDS community with that year's Truax award, given out annually by San Diego County's Health and Human Services HIV Branch.
SAN DIEGO, California -- The UC San Diego LGBT Resource Center is celebrating the annual "Out and Proud Week" on the La Jolla campus today through Saturday.
Out and Proud Week is a week-long group celebration and private reflection on the achievements of LGBT-identified students, staff, and faculty and allies. It is also a time for public awareness and discussion of current LGBT issues on the state and national levels. The events provide the largest opportunity for community visibility on the UC San Diego campus.
See the schedule of events below.
In the early 1990s, concerned staff, faculty and student activists sought to establish a Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Resource Center at the University of California, San Diego. In 1999, UC San Diego finally opened the LGBT Resource Office—the last campus to do so in the UC system.
SAN DIEGO, California -- UC San Diego Health System and the San Diego LGBT Community Center will present a special forum, Ensuring the Health of the LGBTQ Community, on Wednesday, April 8 at 6:30 pm at The Center.
At the forum, participants will have the opportunity to learn more about UCSD Health and its commitment to the community; UCSD's Owen Clinic which is one of the nation's top HIV care programs; and PrEP, the once-a-day medication that is used to prevent HIV infection.
The story of World AIDS Day is a complex one as there are so many different stories from around the globe to tell in the 33 years that has passed since the first confirmed case of AIDS.
World AIDS Day was first held in 1988 in an attempt to try to shine light on some of those stories, and the day has been observed each year since on Dec. 1 to commemorate the lives that have been lost and re-focus on the work that still needs to be done.
SAN DIEGO -- As part of the UC San Diego AIDS Research Institute (ARI)'s "$20 for 20 Years" fundraising drive, three lucky donors will have the opportunity to win great prizes.
Anyone who donates at least $20 to ARI between March 1-17 will be entered to win a Saturday brunch for two at popular Hillcrest restaurant Baja Betty's. Three brunch packages will be given away.
SAN DIEGO -- The Alpha Delta Chapter of Delta Lambda Phi (DLP) begins its spring semester rush activities this evening.
DLP is a social fraternity for gay, bisexual, transgender and progressive men founded over 20 years ago at San Diego State University. The chapter is now open to students at all colleges and universities in San Diego County.
The theme for the Spring 2014 rush is "Be Different." The list of events is below. All events begin at 7 pm unless otherwise noted.
Tuesday, Jan. 28: Meet and Greet at Tea n More
Tuesday, Jan. 28: Meet and Greet at Tea n More
SAN DIEGO -- This year's global World AIDS Day theme for 2013, "Getting to Zero," is part of the UNAIDS strategy to reach a world with zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination, and zero AIDS-related deaths. Worlds AIDS Day will has been observed each year on Dec. 1 since 1988.
SAN DIEGO -- The UC San Diego (UCSD) LGBT Resource Center invites alumni to a special brunch on Saturday, Oct. 19 during the university's Homecoming Weekend.
The brunch brings together members of the UCSD "family" who have been involved with LGBT issues on campus, including former principal members of the school's LGBTQ student organizations, as well as recent graduates who attended the annual Rainbow Graduation. The LGBT Resource Center also hopes to reach alumni who were active with campus LGBT issues that it has lost contact with and invites them to participate in the brunch.
SAN DIEGO -- Three more HIV University classes have been scheduled for the remainder of the year. The classes provide HIV education to newly diagnosed clients, clients who are returning to care, partners, family and friends of HIV-positive individuals.
Presented by the UCSD AIDS Research institute in a collaboration with several other organizations, the free classes will be held on Sept. 19, Oct. 23, and Nov. 9.
Details about upcoming sessions are below.

On Wednesday, in craven contradiction to that position, Boehner plans to lead the Republican-controlled House in enacting a continuing resolution that will fund the government for the rest of fiscal 2013 and that will provide the administration with the money to carry out its attack on religious liberty while leaving Barack Obama's claimed authority to do so unchallenged.
Boehner is doing this after turning aside a plea from some members of his caucus to include language in the CR to thwart Obama's unjust regulation.
Boehner had a choice: He could appease Obama and the liberal media he manifestly fears. Or he could have waged political battle in defense of the religious freedom of Roman Catholics and other Christians and people of faith who share -- in whole or in part -- the Catholic view that sterilization, artificial contraception and abortion are morally wrong.
In 16th century England, facing a tyrannical Henry VIII, Thomas More went to his death rather than submit to a decree commanding him to act against his faith. In 21st century America, facing Obama and the liberal media, Boehner briefly blustered about religious freedom and then took deliberate action to provide Obama with the resources needed to attack that freedom.
"My colleagues," Boehner said on the House floor back on Feb. 8, 2012, "in recent days, Americans of every faith and political persuasion have mobilized in objection to a rule put forward by the Obama administration that constitutes an unambiguous attack on religious freedom in our country.
"This rule," Boehner said, "would require faith-based employers, including Catholic charities, schools, universities and hospitals, to provide services they believe are immoral. Those services include sterilization, abortion-inducing drugs and devices, and contraception. In imposing this requirement, the federal government has drifted dangerously beyond its constitutional boundaries, encroaching on religious freedom in a manner that affects millions of Americans and harms some of our nation's most vital institutions.
"If the president does not reverse the department's attack on religious freedom," said Boehner, "then the Congress, acting on behalf of the American people and the Constitution that we are sworn to uphold and defend, must."

Respond to Review of REMOVED: Lakeland Pedlar Wholefood Cafe
by Nix686
Review: Although not vegetarians we really wanted the Lakeland Pedlar to cater for our wedding. The buffet spread was fab and generous. A lot of different choices, including great flans, stuffed tomatoes, home baked rolls, delicious home baked savoury scones, mini humours wraps, the list goes on. Not forgetting the salds which were much more than your average salad and a whole lot more tasty. Highly recommend and such a friendly helpful service.

Extend ShakeHelps control blood sugar for up to 9 hours!
The patented formula in ExtendShakes converts to blood sugar so gradually it helps stabilize blood sugar levels for up to 9 hours!
An ideal drink anytime!
How to count the carbs in an ExtendShake:Based on clinically conducted continuous glucose monitoring, only 2 of the 12 total carbs have a short term impact on blood sugar.* Fiber (5g) and uncooked cornstarch (5g) - convert slowly and have minimal impact on blood sugar
*(When mixed with water. Using 8 oz of skim milk adds 12 carbs)
ExtendShakes were developed by endocrinologist Francine Kaufman, M.D., past president of the American Diabetes Association, and Head of the Center for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism at Children's Hospital, Los Angeles
Use more or less liquid when mixing to control sweetness and thickness

Great Product!
By Gene

Comments about Extend Shake, Chocolate, 5 pk:
I use this before or after a workout to make sure my blood glucose doesnt take a nosedive. It is really delicious and everyone at work envies the thick shake like texture. Unlike some other products of this type I have tried it gets really thick and creamy. I bought a $20 blender and use it at my desk with 2% milk to give me a few more carbs. While others may not be able to use a blender at work, the blender bottles work too. As for the price... Cheaper than a coffee at St*******.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A good idea but inconvenient and costly
By Strawberry Blonde Ambition
from Los Angeles
I was excited to try this product as it supposed to regulate your blood sugar yet ALSO is gluten-free. I hoped it would help me get through long work days. I purchased a 5-pack for 8.99 only to discover that there were only 2 packets inside the box. Right there I felt ripped off. You can mix the powder with water but it really only tastes good with milk, and then it's less convenient to take to work because you have to buy milk, too, and have a refrigerator to keep it in. Also it's hard to mix the powder in cold milk so it's better to use a blender than a spoon - another obstacle to using this at work. I found this to be a good idea but not cost effective and not convenient. I would prefer that the shake come in pre-mixed cans so you don't have to buy an additional product to mix with it, and I would prefer that the seller be honest about how many packets are in the box.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Taste Great/works

Extend Shakes are GREAT!
By Jopalis

I like the shakes as a meal replacement. I often like to add some fruit along with low fat milk. It is delicious, nutritious and filling. Seems to keep my blood glucose level and helps prevent spikes and munchies.

ReviewsTopeak Wedge Bike Bag with Quickclip - Large 9 9Essential Piece of Kit ! Expandable Storage for your bike, Simply carry tools and spare tube, with extra space for more, with elastic holders on the bottom for extra's, easily clips to the bike. 20 May 2011Good Quality This is a good quality bag, and the only problem I had was the saddle rails on a boardman are quite close together, but as I needed to mount as high as possible, I just mounted the clip as far back on the saddle as possible. This kept the bag high and let me add another light under the bag (main light clipped to the little strap on the back of the bag) The rain cover is pretty nifty too 13 September 2011wedgie overall good but the screws came loose on the first trip & nearly lost the fitting. Used some loctite on the screws & now ok. 10 September 2011biggest available but still too small good looking, easy to attach and detach but very small bag. i can fit in it wallet some keys and tire repair kit and that is it 24 May 2011Bike bag Yes, this is a lovely bag but it would not fit on mine or my wifes bike, so not impressed with the fitting for this bag... 10 February 2011Just what I needed This wedge bag is plenty big enough for essentials, including my lights. And it's easily removable when the bike's left parked. 11 October 2010Flawed Victory It was the bag's capacity and the reputation of Topeak that led me to this bag. It is the biggest saddlebag that I came across, and for the price and quality of the bag, it really is a fantastic coup. It can fit most items essential for cycling, and has retired my bag from my back. I will spare you the details of what I carry, but it carries all cycling tools/accessories for a medium distance ride barring a lock and pump. My only gripe with the product, and a pretty big one, is the absolutely horribly designed saddle attachment. It would not fit any of my saddles, being too wide too fit between the appropriate part of the saddle. To this day, I do not know how I managed to get it on, and I do worry about the saddle breaking as it seemed under considerable duress when I was attempting to MAKE the attachment fit the saddle. The bag itself is great, but the attachment is alot of hassle. That being said, it is performing well now, however I constantly worry about it. Wouldn't recommend. 07 September 2010Big enough Im a bit nervous about venturing too far, then having to walk back due to a puncture so I needed to carry my essential spares with me. In this bag I have A continental inner tube (in its box), 2 spare chain links and Scab patches, a multitool, an 8mm allen key, chain tool, a multi spanner, tyre levers and a decent size rag. I can then undo the zip and get a little extra space if needed. This doesnt look as cool as some of the smaller wedgies, but it gets a lot of stuff in, which it what you will care about when you need your stuff with you. 24 February 2010

Journal Sentinel business reporter Tom Daykin talks about commercial real estate and development.
ESPN Radio plans move to Reuss Federal Plaza
The Milwaukee-area affiliates of ESPN Radio would move their studios and offices to Reuss Federal Plaza under a proposal pending before the city Board of Zoning Appeals.
Good Karma Broadcasting LLC wants to lease 4,000 square feet for radio stations WAUK-AM (540), which airs ESPN Radio programs, and ESPN Deportes 1510, which airs Spanish-language broadcasts of ESPN Radio.
Those stations are now using 2,600 square feet at 770 N. Jefferson St., said Craig Karmazin, Good Karma CEO. That staions would be in street-level vacant space at Reuss, 310 W. Wisconsin Ave., and would be just east of The Capital Grille.
Also, Bryant & Stratton College, which leases 36,000 square feet at Reuss, is seeking board approval to add around 9,200 square feet to its operations there.
The board is to hear both appeals at its May 21 meeting.

Draft Capsule: QB Ryan Nassib
Ryan Nassib (QB), Syracuse
6-2 | 227 lbs.
2012 Stats:
2nd Round
Nassib has above-average arm strength with the ability to make all the throws that are asked of him. Very accurate thrower who puts a lot of velocity behind each pass. Displays great touch on deep routes and fades, giving his receivers a chance to make the play. Very tough to bring down in the pocket. Three-year starter for Syracuse.
Throws the ball into tight windows that led to too many interceptions throughout his career. Doesn't have elite speed and won't be a threat to run in the NFL. Gets rattled in the pocket too easily. At 6'2, doesn't have the ideal height you look for at the next level.
Fit for the Bears:
With Nassib's rocket arm, some scouts have considered him to be a possible late first-round pick. If that's the case, there's no way you will see him donning a Bears jersey come Draft day. If the former Syracuse signal-caller slips into the second-round, Phil Emery will have a tough decision to make. The Bears are still without a backup quarterback and don't have anybody waiting in the wings to replace Jay Cutler. Many scouts believe the Bears will select a quarterback at some point in this draft, but the chances of that happening on the first or second day are slim.

Launching more than one satellite at a time is common practice these days, but what about packing thousands of satellites into a rocket and shooting them at the Moon? As part of a Kickstarter campaign, Pocket Spacecraft is offering the public the chance to send small disc satellites into space.

Based in Bristol, UK, Pocket Spacecraft plans to create thousands of tiny customized "Scout" satellites to be launched in a cubesat as a way of promoting low cost, mass space exploration.
