Los Angeles Dodgers phenom outfielder Yasiel Puig was arrested in Collier County on Saturday morning after Florida Highway Patrol troopers reported clocking his white Mercedes at 110 mph on Alligator Alley.
The 23-year-old Major League Baseball star was traveling west in a 70 mph zone near the 99 mile marker of Interstate 75 when he was arrested on a reckless driving charge and booked into the Collier County jail. He was also cited for driving without proof of insurance.
Puig was released from the Collier County jail on a $500 "self cash bond" at about 1 p.m., a jailer said.
DOCUMENT: Read Yasiel Puig's arrest report.
He was cooperative with troopers during the traffic stop, said Lt. Greg Bueno, an FHP spokesman. He had three passengers in his vehicle; two relatives and a friend, who Bueno said is "no one of any celebrity status."
The reckless driving charge is based on trooper observations that Puig showed willful or wanton disregard for his passengers and other drivers, Bueno said.
"Alligator Alley is a rural road that is more wide open than other places," Bueno said. "We do tend to see higher excessive speed amounts out there."
Records show Puig bought a home in Miami's Rockdale Estates in November 2012 for $1.5 million.
Reached by phone Saturday, Lon Rosen, chief marketing officer for the Dodgers, said he was not aware of the arrest and could not comment on it. Attempts to reach Puig's agent, Jaime Torres, for comment were unsuccessful.
The arrest marked the second time this year Puig has gotten into trouble on the highway. While playing in the minors for the Dodgers' Double-A affiliate in Chattanooga, Tenn., Puig was arrested in April and charged with speeding, reckless driving, and driving without proof of insurance. The charges were dropped in November.
"I think he'll be just fine, as long as he learns from everything that's happened to him," said Tommy Watkins, a Fort Myers-Riverdale graduate who played two years with the Fort Myers Miracle before a brief stint with the Minnesota Twins in 2007. "Just like he needs to learn from the mistakes he makes on the field. He's an amazing talent, but he's still very young."
Puig made his major-league debut on June 3, and became an overnight sensation in Los Angeles by hitting four home runs in his first five games. He finished second to Miami pitcher Jose Fernandez in the National League Rookie of the Year voting after hitting .319 with 19 homers and 42 RBIs.
Blessed with blazing speed, mammoth power and a laser of a right arm, Puig showed up all over sports highlights shows throughout the season.
Puig impressed fans, but often irked opponents by violating the unwritten rules of the game.
He was part of a nasty, bench-clearing brawl against the Arizona Diamondbacks in June after being hit in the face with a pitch. He hit a game-winning home run in extra innings against the Cincinnati Reds on July 26 and then slid into home plate. During Game 3 of the NLCS against the St. Louis Cardinals, Puig belted a long drive to center and stood at the plate admiring his work, thinking he had hit a two-run homer. The ball stayed in the park, and Puig had to hustle into third for a triple.
"As a player, I just think he doesn't know (how to act)," former Cardinals outfielder Carlos Beltran told ESPN.com at the time.
Ross Gasmer, 23, editor and chief of the fan site Dodgers Nation, said the arrest is a black mark on what had been a great offseason for Puig, who had been ingratiating himself to baseball fans by inviting Little Leaguers to Dodger Stadium and visiting sick children in the hospital.
"Now, with this reckless driving charge, I fear that a lot of that stuff will get shoved to the wayside," Gasmer said.
The arrest feeds into Puig's controversial image, said Stacie Wheeler, 34, co-editor of the Dodgers' fan site Lasorda's Lair. Even though Puig didn't hurt anyone, it was a mistake he shouldn't have made, especially since he's been arrested on a reckless driving charge before, Wheeler said.
"It's still putting others in danger because it's a public roadway," she said.
Neither Gasmer nor Wheeler said they expect the arrest to impact Puig's on-field performance.
"I think he's still learning," Gasmer said. "It's a process. He's 23 years old. He's been in the U.S. a year, a year and a half. ... I think it will be another way for the Dodgers to teach. I hope he understands that and I hope we don't have to have these conversations again."
Puig is in no way the first Major League Baseball player to end up in a Southwest Florida jail.
On March 2, Red Sox minor league pitcher Drake Britton was arrested on DUI charges after authorities say he led Lee County sheriff's deputies on a chase at over 100 mph.
On March 23, 2012, then-Boston Red Sox pitcher Bobby Jenks was picked up on a DUI charge while leaving a Fort Myers strip club. The charges were eventually dropped.
A day before Jenks' arrest, Tampa Bay Rays minor league pitcher Matthew Bush landed behind bars, after running down a motorcycle rider and fleeing the scene in Punta Gorda. He pleaded no contest to driving under the influence with serious bodily injury, and was sentenced to 51 months in prison.
In March 2006, then-Minnesota Twins pitcher Francisco Liriano was arrested on a DUI charge in Cape Coral. He, too, was adjudicated guilty.

If the universal body is perpetually turning itself inside out - outside in, then there is no such thing as an opposite except as relative to itself.
So the universe is pulling and pushing - or pushing and pulling itself at the same time...as it turns itself inside out, or outside in.
There is nothing outside of the universe. It is one...and one is another word for infinity.
And that is one big or small universe.
Small, because this phenomena works on the subatomic scale as well.
As well as on the human scale..... in that the self goes in and the same self comes out.
From seed to fruit ...in other words.. from source to source an endless spring.
It's a spring thing.
Don't you just love mel bell science ? ...lol
you would be burned at stake for your mel bell science if we would live in AD 1600s. The verdict would be, Mel is a heretic. I see some interesting ideas that can be derived from your science as you mix apples and pines. Your approach to science is rather artistic than scientific.
Hi I'm still trying to get my head around the concept ''Gravity'' so I have some thoughts I wrote on paper yesterday which took me about 4 hours to write because I had to keep editing it until it actually made sense to me. I'm not saying its the truth or that its how things are, its just my personal vision that I want to share with the toe. Maybe someone can see something in it, not sure it will make sense to anybody though, but then again it might, so here goes, and let me warn you this is some really ''out there'' mel bell thinking.... so be ready to go WTF!
Solid matter is an illusion. The universe is nothing but space or consciousness or an awareness screen in which images appear and disappear. The whole entire universe equals zero weight.Weight, which is another name for gravity is an illusion. Weight or gravity is a sensation felt, it cannot be seen or touched, it exists purely as a concept. No literal gravity or weight ever existed, these are effects, forces felt as a sense that we just happen to call gravity or weight. Similarly, the 5 senses, are not literal things either except as concepts.Sensations cannot be seen and weigh nothing, and just like gravity the senses can only be felt as an effect or force.
So, when two seemingly separate solid celestial objects aka(images) make contact with one another,
they have to push their surfaces together to ground each other into place so as to give the illusion that they are solid.This dual acting simultaneous equal and opposite pushing force acts like a glue that sticks two objects together. If these equal and opposite pushing together forces did not exist then the objects would just pass straight through each other as if they wasn't there. That they push together in equal and opposite directions is how the 3D world takes on its shape.
>< Imagine these arrows are two clumps of matter.One arrow is my foot, and the other is the floor.
The reason I appear solid is because the ground is pushing toward my feet and my feet are pushing towards the ground at the same time.This force acts as a counteractive force keeping solidity in form. We are also kept in form by another force which is the etheric field which enters our lungs by a pushing force filling us with air that is keeping us buoyant in our own ocean of energy.
Clumps of matter to become grounded in the weightlessness of space that they occupy have to push together until contact is made.
Imagine two fish in the ocean - in order for them to touch anything else that happens to be in the ocean, they have to push their bodies forward towards it and that includes catching their food. I just can't see that there is any need for a pulling force in reality.
If we are living in one big ocean like fish then there can be no such thing as a pulling force.
this is an amazing performance. As a Prof. of Intergalactic Gravity Studies I am promoting you to Ph.D. hc. or Dr. hc. honors causus! I am amazed by your insights, I have never asked myself about unsolidity of this phenomenon some drunk policeman Newton named Gravity. I have asseted with my greatest certitude that gravity as such does not exist. This explains why gravity can not be connected to Special and General realtivity, as the both do not exist. So how can you combine two unexisting theories?
What Al Zeeper proposed was Pressure x Volume = Energy model and the one with integerated electrical-mass. Now Mel, you are right as this q or electical-mass is the product of every combusting star and we are all fish execept for Rybo who is an empty can, swiming in this ocean of ether.
Now Mel take: electrical-mass x pressure / density and you get Pressure x Volume = Light x Heat wich all result in one and only non-solid and pure energy called cosmic consciousness.
Mel you are damn right and I am pround on you. It is only our sheeple perception and our 5 poor senses that translate consciousness or pure energy into solid matter, apparently done by our brain.
If you consider that dendrites in our brain, that is place where memories are stored are at spin 1,37 c the velocity of light than gravity is neither a phenomenon of mass/enregy equivaltence nor mass atraction of two or more large bodies, but universal compression of ether, a pushing force of density differences. Quote: Al Zeeper, Zee "Spock" @ WowGoHere.com
Under compression we understand that there is a pressure due to a volume and there is density. Our dear Dr. Melanie, Ph.D., each object made of electrical-mass can dessolve into pure consciousness/energy any time also has its own desity. Yet my fellow researcher Al Zeeper, Zee "Spock" asserted, taking Galilean Thermometer that the density of cosmic space or vacuum is always constant or the same. What swims, where it swims and how it orbits reference stars of naked women is individual celestial or our body density difference relative to the constant density of this space. WE ARE TRULY BEING PUSHED ALL THE TIME, and never pulled or atracted. Latter is for our Rybo-nator to note!
Professor of governing dynamics of the universal compression within space-consciousness continuum, MSc. Andy aka Q Jr.
Within the dream of separation there is a sense of I am over here and you are over there. That is not true. That which is seen is not separate from the one seeing. The sense of ''I'' is a movement in your consciousness. The consciousness does not move anywhere because it is everywhere at once.The attractor is pure awareness becoming aware of itself.Awareness is the absolute, consciousness is relative. Awareness can only become aware of itself by reflecting itself as a conscious experience, this is known as becoming attractive.When the attractor mirrors itself in its own reflection and it is reciprocated by itself, it awakens in its own dream.Awareness becomes aware of itself.
Subject and Object become One once again.
''The wild geese do not intend to cast their reflections. The water has no mind to receive their image.''
The sun and the moon have no awareness of their existence, they only live in a conscious experience aka the knowing.
When awareness knows sensation consciousness is born.
Thank you Andy for helping to expand my consciousness. This is what the Toe Quest forum is all about - when other posters comments can trigger your own knowings inside of you, cause you to remember your true self, and give you aha moments.
Andy writes his visions in lay mans terms so that everyone can understand. I understand him. We must simplify what we want to say, we should say what we mean and mean what we say.

Imagineer's Quest 64, a traditional RPG for Nintendo 64, is set to be released in early 98
Combining traditional RPG elements with a graphics engine nearly identical to that found in Super Mario 64, Imagineer's new RPG offering for Nintendo 64 looks to be a winner. But does it stand a chance against Zelda 64?
Players control the main character throughout a 3D world via an over-the-shoulder view, as seen in Zelda 64 and Mario 64. Typically, as players progress, the game random battles occur, new spells and moves can be acquired and more of the storyline unfolds.
The game, also much like Zelda 64, emphasizes both action and RPG elements. Players are free to explore the 3D world, engage battles, hold conversations and gather information. At the same time, though, die-hard RPG fans may be turned off by the fact that this game isn't a run-of-the-mill role-playing game, with much action to be had.
Characters in the game take on a look generically Japanese in appearance, sporting big heads mounted on tiny bodies and huge eyes. The 3D world, while incomplete, had a number of unique villages and landscapes to explore even in the moderately complete version we were treated to. All in all, everything looks promising for the game.
A Japanese release date is planned for December and Imagineer plans to bring the game to the U.S. as soon as translation is complete. It's likely to appear here in the U.S. in early 98 -- probably before Zelda 64 hits. THQ is the game's publisher.
Take a look at the new screen-shots of the game in action or check out our full preview of the game.

CR Johnson was born out of open minded free loving parents Rusty and Lorraine. Pushed out into a hot summer night in Truckee California August 10th 1983, CR was born good and born screaming. When one looks up perseverance in the dictionary there ought to be a picture of CR pushing a walker learning to take baby steps after suffering a ski accident in 2005. This ski accident left him in a coma for two weeks with major brain injuries.
Now compare that to the next photo less then 2 years later of him shooting out of West Face on KT at Squaw Valley. He was dedicated and inspiring. CR appreciated his family, friends and a powder day. He rode the positive choo choo train and was accepting of all people. Curious and open minded when it came to folks who had beliefs that were not
his own.
Son, brother, friend and 100% lover. He loved to love and loved to ski. Loved to sit down and work on his sewing machine. Loved to wear that green jacket! Proud lion, free spirit, shooting star!

EAA Sport Pilot Magazine
EAA Sport Pilot Sourcebook
Shop Sport Pilot
The new, exciting way to get involved in flying with less time and expense is coming to the Atlanta/Lawrenceville area this month!
The Experimental Aircraft Association's "Sport Pilot Tour" rolls into to the Gwinnett County Airport in Lawrenceville beginning at 8 a.m. on Saturday, April 29, ready to introduce people to the sport pilot/light-sport aircraft revolution.
EAA's Sport Pilot Tour arrives with the information and tools needed to seize and enjoy this recreational-aviation opportunity, for both experienced pilots and new fliers. That includes some of the brand-new, ready-to-fly light-sport aircraft and informative talk sessions to help people get started in this new facet of personal flight.
The Tour has already made successful stops in other major cities over the past year, including Dallas, Phoenix, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Los Angeles. Each stop shows people how they can get into the sky as a pilot with less time and expense than they ever thought possible.
"Now is the time for the many, many people who have dreamed of learning to fly or getting back into aviation at an affordable level," said Ron Wagner, EAA manager of field relations. "Sport pilot was introduced to reduce the time and cost traditionally associated with flying and the infrastructure for your success is rapidly taking shape. The EAA Sport Pilot Tour opens the possibilities of personal flight to individuals and lets them know how to get started. There are light-sport aircraft on-site that can provide demonstration flights and open exciting ways to take to the sky."
Among the activities at the Sport Pilot Tour stop, which is based at the EAA Chapter 690 facility at 690 Airport Road in Lawrenceville, are:
EAA worked with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for more than a decade to create a category of pilots and aircraft that meets the needs of those who fly purely for recreation. Sport pilots can be new entrants to aviation, experienced aviators looking for a simple, back-to-basics way to enjoy flying, or those who want to start building their flying skills and eventually pursue more advanced piloting.
"We'll be showing our members, other aviators, and the public that this is an exciting time for recreational aviation, which is rapidly moving to the fore as an affordable outdoor-adventure pastime," said Wagner, who has met and talked with thousands of aviation enthusiasts about sport pilot during the past year.
FAA will participate with EAA during these tour stops, giving credit for "Wings" safety seminar attendance for participating in Sport Pilot Tour safety programs related to light-sport aviation. Other tour highlights include sport pilot forums, education for flight instructors, plus light-sport aircraft manufacturer displays and demonstrations.

Corporate governance
3. Board of directors: composition and independence
Since the year end, a further independent non-executive director, Dr Dambisa Moyo, has been appointed to the board. This appointment enhances the independence and balance of the board, and continues the process of progressive renewal. Biographical details of Dr Moyo are included in the Board of directors.
The board currently consists of the Chairman (Mr Kahn); eight independent non-executive directors (including Lord Fellowes, the Senior Independent Director); four non-executive directors who are not considered to be independent; and two executive directors (Mr Mackay, the Chief Executive, and Mr Wyman, the Chief Financial Officer). Biographical information concerning each of the directors is set out in the Board of directors.
The size and certain aspects of the composition of the board and of the audit, nomination and corporate accountability and risk assurance committees are determined primarily by the terms of our relationship agreement with Altria, which was originally approved by shareholders in 2002 as part of the Miller transaction, and was amended, with shareholders' approval, in 2005 as part of the Bavaria transaction, and by the terms of our relationship agreement with BevCo Ltd ('BevCo'), a holding company of the Santo Domingo Group, which was approved by shareholders in 2005 as part of the Bavaria transaction.
The agreement with Altria limits the size of the board to a maximum of 15 directors, of whom no more than two are to be executive directors, up to three are to be non-executive directors nominated by Altria, up to two are to be non-executive directors nominated by BevCo, and up to eight are to be non-executive directors appointed by the board.
The agreement with BevCo allows BevCo to nominate up to two non-executive directors for appointment to the board. The board is grateful to Altria for its indulgence in permitting for the time being the maximum number of directors allowed under the relationship agreement to be exceeded, in order to assist the company to meet the requirements of the Combined Code. Altria has also for the time being elected not to exercise its right to nominate a third director for appointment to the board.
Altria and BevCo have each exercised their right under their respective agreements to nominate one director for appointment to the nomination committee. BevCo has the right to nominate one director for appointment to the corporate accountability and risk assurance committee (CARAC) (although it has not exercised this right), and Altria has the right to nominate one director for appointment to the audit committee (which it has exercised).
The board considers eight directors – Ms Doherty, Lord Fellowes, Mr Manser, Mr Manzoni, Mr Morland, Dr Moyo, Mr Pieterse and Mr Ramaphosa – to be independent for the purposes of the Combined Code. The board considers four non-executive directors not to be independent for the purposes of the Combined Code: Mr Bible and Mr Devitre, as they are nominees of Altria, the company's largest shareholder; and Mr Santo Domingo and Mr Pérez, as they are nominees of the Santo Domingo Group, the company's second largest shareholder. The Chairman, Mr Kahn, who is a former chief executive of the company and has served continuously on the board, or on the board of the company's predecessor, since 1981 (although he has been a director of the company only since 1999) and, as Chairman, is deemed not to be independent under the Combined Code.
For ease of reference, directors' independence status for Combined Code purposes is indicated in the directors' attendance table.
Lord Renwick of Clifton retired from the board on 31 July 2008 after nine years of distinguished service as a non-executive director. Ms Maria Ramos and Mr Rob Pieterse were appointed to the board on 15 May 2008 as independent non-executive directors, but in consequence of her subsequent appointment as Group Chief Executive of ABSA Group Limited in South Africa, Ms Ramos was most regrettably unable to continue to act as a director of the company and was obliged to resign from the board on 26 February 2009. With effect from 1 June 2009, the board has appointed Dr Moyo as an additional independent non-executive director, to replace Ms Ramos.
The board continues to believe that its overall composition remains appropriate, having regard in particular to the independence of character and integrity of all of its directors, and the experience and skills which they bring to their duties.
It is now 10 years since the company listed on the London Stock Exchange. SABMiller has been fortunate to retain the services of several distinguished non-executive directors – the Chairman, Lord Fellowes, Mr Morland and Mr Ramaphosa – for the entire period. They have provided considerable stability to the board since the listing in 1999 and the board has benefited greatly from the presence of individuals who have over time gained valuable insight into the group, its markets and the industry. The provisions of the Combined Code require the board to consider, where a director has served for a period of more than nine years, whether that director continues to be independent. In respect of each of the three independent directors (Lord Fellowes, Mr Morland and Mr Ramaphosa) the board has considered specifically whether their length of service has compromised their independence. In each case the board has determined that the director concerned remained independent of character and judgment and that there were no relationships or circumstances which were likely to affect, or could appear to affect, the director's judgment, and that the independence of character and judgment of each of the directors concerned was not in any way affected or impaired by length of service. The board has also conducted a rigorous review of the performance of the Chairman, Lord Fellowes, Mr Morland and Mr Ramaphosa and considers that each of these directors brings invaluable integrity, wisdom and experience to the board and that they continue to contribute positively to board and committee deliberations. Therefore, the board is entirely satisfied as to the performance and continued independence of judgement of each of these directors.
Under the Combined Code, directors who have served for more than nine years are required to stand for annual re-election and, in line with the board's prior determination that they should do so, each of the Chairman and Lord Fellowes, Mr Morland and Mr Ramaphosa will again offer himself for re-election for a term of one year. The board does not consider it to be in the interests of the company or shareholders to require all directors who have served for nine years or longer to retire at the same time and strongly favours ensuring continuity and stability through orderly succession. As noted, Lord Renwick retired from the board on 31 July 2008 following nine year's service to the board. With the recent and unexpected resignation of Ms Ramos and her replacement having been recruited very recently, the board considered that the retirement of another experienced long-serving director this year would be undesirable and would not be in the interests of the company or its shareholders.
While recognising the benefits of the experience and stability brought by its long-standing directors, the board remains committed to the progressive renewal of board membership, having acted during the year to bring about the appointment of Ms Ramos, Mr Pieterse and Dr Moyo.
The board considers that the composition of the audit committee remains appropriate, given Altria's interest as the company's largest shareholder, and is satisfied that, having regard to the terms of the relationship agreement between the company and Altria, and the experience and background in financial matters of Mr Devitre, the independence and effectiveness of the audit committee in discharging its functions in terms of the Combined Code continue to be considerably enhanced and not compromised.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- Graham Zusi scored in the 88th minute to lift Sporting Kansas City to a 2-1 victory over the Colorado Rapids on Saturday night and into a three-way tie for first place in the Eastern Conference.
Benny Feilhaber also scored for Sporting (12-9-6), which broke a two-match shutout loss streak and pulled even with Montreal and New York atop the East.
Feilhaber scored from 30 yards in the 33rd minute to put Kansas City up 1-0. After centre forward Dom Dwyer -- making his first league start -- beat Colorado's Hendry Thomas to a loose ball, Feilhaber's right-footed shot curled inside the left post, breaking Sporting's goalless streak at 213 minutes.
Edson Buddle, who entered the match as a substitute in the 70th, tied it seven minutes later for the Rapids (10-8-9), who snapped a nine-match unbeaten streak.
Buddle tracked down a deflected ball 25 yards from goal, and his low shot deflected off centre back Matt Besler's foot and bounced inside the right post.

Today I will get lost in a book!
As a leader in early childhood education, KinderCare knows that one of the best predictors of a successful reader is the amount of time a child spends reading. At home, there is much you can do to help foster your child's reading skills and set the stage for a lifelong love of books and learning.
Be a Reading Model
Your own words and actions will speak volumes. Children pay attention to everything. When your child sees you reading newspapers, magazines, and books, he or she will understand the importance of reading and will want to read, too.
Reading to your child on a regular basis is by far the best way to encourage your budding reader. Here are some tips to make the most of your reading time:
-Make reading a relaxed, fun activity.
-Eliminate distractions such as television, music, and phones.
-Establish a routine time and place for reading, when possible.
-Invite your child to select books to read.
-Before you begin a new book, engage your child's imagination. Read the book's title and ask your child what the story might be about.
-Allow your child to hold the book, see the illustrations, and turn the pages.
-Pause periodically to ask questions about the text to help your child develop comprehension.
-Read with expression. Alter your voice for characters and become animated during exciting parts.
-Read the same books over and over again. Children love repetition, and they delight in being able to "read" along when a book becomes well known to them.
Happy Reading!!!

She showed off her toned figure and flawless tan in the bright two-piece while relaxing with her daughter, Harlow, on the beach and snapping pictures of her husband, Joel, and son, Sparrow, who cruised around on a Jet Ski. Nicole has been overseas on a European yacht tour with a group of friends and family for the past week — they started off in Portofino, where they did some sightseeing and shopping before dining out with Magic Johnson, then they headed to the South of France. The fun continued in Saint-Tropez over the weekend as Nicole and Joel brought their little ones for a walk along the ocean. Joel has been taking photos of the trip abroad and sharing them on his Instagram, including a sweet black-and-white snap of his wife walking through the cobblestone streets, writing, "I'd follow her anywhere." Nicole has also been playing photographer and posting bikini-clad pictures to her feed as well — don't forget to vote for her in our 2013 POPSUGAR Bikini Bracket!

Hello - I see how Display Names are configured for Entity Fields through CRM Customization.
When the field is referenced in a View the column header name will be the Display Name that is configured in Customization.
However, what if I just want a CRM datagrid to display the field with a custom display name for a single CRM datagrid and I don't want to impact the other Display Name references to that field in other areas of the application?
Do you know if this is possible and how to do this?
This isn't possible in a supported way. The subgrid column headings are taken from the view that the subgid is displaying. You may be able to do it in an unsupported way with JavaScript, though.

Internet of Things - read at least "What is Internet of Things" ; other parts are optional
From a recent interview with Victoria Postrel by James M. Pethokoukis in U.S. News (around 2005):
"Technology has significantly lowered the cost of aesthetics and, in many cases, improved quality, from the durability of upholstery fabrics to the subtlety and staying power of hair dye. The laser alone is hugely important as an aesthetic tool, whether you're talking about scanning photos or resurfacing skin. Information technology applied to distribution and retailing makes aesthetic goods more available and plentiful. Direct marketing, whether through catalogs or Internet sales, makes aesthetic niches profitable, even at middle-class prices, and direct marketing depends on credit cards and computer data bases. Increasingly, aesthetics is the "killer app" for information technology–the reason for buying new and improved digital equipment. Look at the spread of digital cameras and computer systems to store and manipulate photos. Computers make graphic design cheap and pervasive, though you can still see a big difference between professionals and amateurs using similar tools. [Architect] Frank Gehry has just launched a new company, Gehry Technologies, to market the computer system he uses to turn his curvy designs into plans that contractors can follow. Starbucks designers use 3-D animation software to demonstrate how layouts, materials, lighting, and artwork will look in real stores. Software adapted from pilot-training flight simulators lets real estate developers show potential buyers and land-use regulators exactly how new houses will fit into the landscape. On the GE Plastics Web site, customers can specify, display, and order more than 30,000 different colors."

Yahoo's New Mission Statement: We Are Not Google
Posted on May 17th, 2007 by Mike Abundo
" In response to Google's new tagline, Yahoo retools its mission statement to reconcile its recent social media acquisitions
with its origin as a human-edited directory: To connect people to their passions, communities, and the world's knowledge. Clearly, Yahoo wants to come off as more "human" than Google, whose mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful."

Special Topic for Spring 2007:
Flat Word, Branding, Experience Economy, Long Tail, Interaction Design, Mass Collaboration, Search,
Elsewhere, and other key forces and ideas which shape contemporary global culture
Since 1996, a number of new fundamental forces, ideas and technologies have reshaped contemporary global culture –both the world of communications (mobile technology, Web 1.0., Web 2.0, etc) and the material world (product and space design, architecture, branding, etc.). In this class we will examine some of these ideas and trends. Instead of beginning with the academic sources, we will directly look at particular case studies – iPod and iPhone, Paragon Mall (Bangkok) and the hotels in Dubai, software mash-ups and anime remixes, fashion by Hussin Chaylan and Niketowns, etc. etc. etc.
We will read the most influential books which defined new ideas behind these and numerous other products, spaces, and experiences, and which are currently shaping imagination of people who design culture today. (As can be seen from the amazon.com numbers which I included below –as of from March 5, 2007 – all the books which we will use in this class have very high sales ranks. Surpisingly, I have not met any academic who even heard of any of these books...)
The goal of the class is to get the students familiar with some of the current conceptual map of global culture production. The assumption behind the class structure is that the detailed theory of contemporary "consumer" culture can be found in popular business books and in the professional discourse of most conceptually–oriented members of various professional communities, be it interaction design, branding, or anything else. (By "theory" here I mean not the "interpretation" of cultural content and cultural technologies but the analysis of how this content is made in the first place.) In addition to popular books such as the ones we will be looking at in this class, we will also learn how to extract "cultural theory" from professional publications and also "coffee table" books covering different fields.
If this will be possible given everybody's schedule, most of the class meetings will take place in different recently build commercial spaces in San Diego – hotels, restaurants, clubs, etc. - which exemplify the trends we will be discussing.
Note on the readings: while we will of course supplement the books though online readings, we can't find everything on the web which we need (at least not today). Therefore I have to ask to get hold of a number of books for these class. (And anyway, these are the books everybody is reading today – why should we be any different?)
Here are some tips of how you can make it cheaper for yourself:
check these books in the library,
order at amazon.com instead of the bookstore,
share books..
I don't care how you get the books as long as you will be able to do the readings.

Ryan Lee Crosby is a folk-blues singer/songwriter/guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, record producer and music teacher in Boston, MA.
Over the last decade, Crosby has written and released four full length albums, a film score and three EPs, which have received national airplay and collected prized local accolades such as "Best Singer/Songwriter" in the Boston Phoenix/WFNX Radio Music Poll and earned him nomations in the annual Boston Music Awards for "Best Male Vocalist" and "Best Singer/Songwriter."
He has performed live as a solo artist, bandleader and sideman on stages in the U.S., Canada and Europe, on bills with The Shins, The Hold Steady, Marissa Nadler, AA Bondy, Phosphorescent, Damon and Naomi, Chris Brokaw, The Black Atlantic and many more.
After a two year period during which he pursued his passion for boxing, Crosby returned to recording and performing, playing all of the instruments on his 2012 self-titled vinyl LP, which stands center stage in a diverse discography that ranges from psychedelic rock (Ryan Lee Crosby vinyl LP, EP3), to outsider folk (Out to Dry, Split Cassette), alongside experimental guitar (Return of the Invisible Man) and hi-fi pop (Summer's Come/The War, There is no Music). In addition, Crosby also composed, performed and recorded the film score to award-winning documentary "Racing the Rez" in 2012.
In between solo projects, Crosby has recorded and performed with Marissa Nadler, Faces on Film and the Animal Hospital Ensemble. Recently, he made his acting debut in videos by Marissa Nadler and the Future Carnivores, while also appearing in numerous videos for material off the Ryan Lee Crosby vinyl LP.
In 2013, Crosby released his fourth album, "Institution Blues," which he supported with a tour of Europe, performing in Holland, Germany and Switzerland at such venues as the Van Gogh Museum, the Groninger Museum and the Zentrum Altenberg.
Whether performing solo on 12 string guitar, as a bluesy drum-guitar duo, or with a full backing band, Crosby's intricate playing, propulsive rhythms and dynamic vocals create a sound that confronts listeners with an immediacy rarely found in the work of traditional singer/songwriters.

But soon
would be too small
for us
to move
or grow
we'll suffocate
with our own breaths.
I remember your smile
10 years ago–we were so young.
What time has done
lines–deep, and profound
like fresh wounds, every time
or bark of an old tree.
traces on our foreheads, carvings of emotions or memories?
tears dehydrated our souls– made our faces warped and dry
our hands too
that often clenched.
made our bodies heavy
we drag our feet now
to go places–
but we could no longer walk
on our own.
You're always at my shoulders
waiting for a mistake or two
then you'll breath out on me all your blames
thick smoke of gray, brushes my faces
burns my eyes.
I have forgotten how to cry.
You breath in
and again– on your own.
I exhaled.
My hair turned gray
with all the smoke and the many nights.
I have managed to live in fear
and to sleep guarded– or to not even sleep.
We fight for nothing. As nothing we have become.
The children. If it wasn't for the children
who sleeps on the other room.
And here we are.
This was the room where summer love rose.
This would be the same room where the sun would set
on us– on you
You never learned how to let go.
You drown yourself with alcohol
You smother yourself with nicotine
As you strangle me with your regrets.
But it was all you–
all because of you.
I waited.
For so long I have let go
but would you?
You breath in
and again. Heavy and wounding.
(like your words)
For the last time.
I exhaled with you.
You were so young.

Brookfield - Her voice cracking with sadness, Azana Salon & Spa owner Tami Gemmell said Tuesday afternoon at a news conference, "Our hearts are broken over the loss of our colleagues."
Gemmell spoke at Westmoor Country Club, located next door to her salon in which three workers were killed and four others were injured Sunday during a shooting spree by the husband of one of her stylists. She thanked police and the community for their outpouring of love and concern.
Of Zina Haughton, 42, the wife of Radcliffe F. Haughton, who had opened fire at the salon and then later killed himself, she said: "Zina was one of the hardest workers I've ever known. She loved doing hair and gave her heart and soul to her clients. She was an extraordinary mom and a friend to so many."
Another of the victims, Cary L. Robuck, 35, "was the biggest sweetheart" who lived for her daughter and her family, Gemmell said.
The third victim, Maelyn M. Lind, 38, "was an amazing mom and a new grandmother" who she said was cheerful and always smiling.
Gemmell said she realized that the deaths were a big loss for her clients as well as those who worked at the spa.
"The relationship between a stylist and a nail tech and their clients is unique and personal," she said.
She said her top concern now is for her employees, her clients and their loved ones.
She said a fund had been established for victims' families at Associated Bank in Brookfield. Anyone wishing to donate may submit a contribution at any Associated Bank in Brookfield or call (262) 784-3370 for information.
She added, "I hope that if there is anything good to come of this, it is that we, as a community, open a serious dialogue about domestic violence."
She did not take questions.
Nancy Wilkes, speaking for Gemmell and the salon, said the four who were wounded in the attack included staff and clients. Three remain in the hospital.
Gemmell has owned the salon for 12 years. She was returning from an out-of-state trip Sunday and was not at the spa when the shootings occurred.

Although there was a buzz that actress Deepika Padukone would feature opposite Ranbir Kapoor in producer Bhushan Kumar's tentatively titled film Roy, the actress has not signed the movie. Deepika and Ranbir had teamed up for their latest film, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.
"If I am letting go of a movie, there might be other reasons. If I really like a script, the producer and I can always work around the dates. I have taken up only as much work as I can accommodate," Deepika said in a statement in Mumbai on Saturday.
The film directed by Vikram Singh stars Jacqueline Fernandez in a double role. The actress says her family has been supportive. "I always said they are my strength. They know that I am extremely busy and have no time to spend with them. But they hav
