Reports from the ever-expanding Mojang empire reveal that revenues, driven by sales of its core product, the exploration and building game Minecraft – which is a little like saying "the paper and ink product Gravity's Rainbow", but will do for now – reached $80 million in the 15 months since incorporation in October 2010.
Of particular note is that the lion's share of this revenue was made before the actual release of Minecraft as a finished product in Las Vegas at "MineCon" in November 2011. That is, by the time the game was officially released, it already had sales in the millions and a fan base passionate enough to generate and fund a fan convention in Las Vegas, with tickets selling for between $99 and $139.
This is an interesting price point in itself: the Modern Warfare 3 "Hardened Edition" cost around $100 on release. For this, buyers got a year's membership of Activision's Elite multiplayer value-add community, a steel case, an exclusive digital outfit for their Xbox Live avatar and various pieces of flash. For the same money (plus, it must be said, air fare to Vegas), a Minecraft fan could mingle with Mojang's staff and its cofounder and majority shareholder, Markus "Notch" Persson.
Block Party – MineCon 2011
Burrowing Money
Minecraft's lifetime sales – around 5 million at, on average, $16 per unit – roughly equate to the first-week sales of Modern Warfare 3. Neither Activision Blizzard's CEO Bobby Kotick nor Activision Publishing's Eric Hirshberg need fall immediately into despair. However, Minecraft, along with its massively bigger-selling (and slightly more profitable) Scandinavian cousin in Rovio's Angry Birds, represents an expansion in the possibilities of the market for games which both draws hours and attention from the hardcore (more than the hardcore itself might want to admit) and exploits a "soft middle" somewhere between Words with Friends (which, although delivered through the Internet, is a video game only as much as the presence of countdown clocks makes chess a mechanical game) and Starcraft.
Large studios have traditionally responded to the rise of products serving this soft middle by buying up companies, such as EA's purchase of Plants vs Zombies creator Popcap. However, arguably the value added by scale to these enterprises is not great enough to justify the old-fashioned publishing giants (the apex predators of the games industry) trying to gobble them up as fast as they appear, or to make a case for selling out beyond personal enrichment. This is not quite the "big publishers ruin everything" logic we have seen trotted out repeatedly during the recent controversy over Mass Effect 3 and other games released by BioWare since its acquisition by EA. More that sometimes a corporate buyout adds little value beyond making the principals of the smaller studio rich, and that if those principals are already rich enough, they have a surprising amount of bargaining power.
Persson's needs appear to be few. He likes to make games, and to support others who make games. Through Mojang, and small projects like his 48-hour Minicraft and through large donations to indie sales channels such as the Humble Bundle, and the championing of projects such as Double Fine's desire to make a creator-owned sequel to the more-praised-than-purchased Psychonauts, he is able to fulfil these objectives. Where he creates alliances, such as the creation of a Minecraft variant for the Xbox, he does so from a position of relative strength. The $3.7 million dividend he received as Mojang's major shareholder was shared between the studio's 25 employees. Any publisher seeking to buy Mojang will, paradoxically, find that a lack of concern about making money will push the price uncomfortably high: Sean Parker has already seen an attempt to buy into Mojang politely rebuffed.
Next: The seven habits of highly effective pixels
The seven habits of highly effective pixels
Not every viral or indie hit follows the same business plan, or targets the same audience. However, Mojang's journey has some salient messages for the hopeful coder:
- A low capital base means a shorter fall – It is a truth of the market that most enthusiast products either fail to find their audience, or discover that there audience is not as large as they had hoped. Persson quit his job as a games developer to work on Minecraft, but showed confidence rather than overconfidence, growing Mojang Studios as sales mandated. Until the official launch in November 2011, he was still the lead developer on the game – structures were kept small and flat. Which is the first block on the way to:
- Find supportive capitalisation - the twin of a low capital base, and its corollary, is the ability to find sources of funding outside the conventional model. Rovio's apprenticeship in game development was funded by family contributions, like many start-ups. Minecraft's model of selling, in effect, access to a finished game in the future, becomes, in effect, an interest-free loan – Kiva with zombies and lava. By definition, these sources will be better able to understand and make allowances for the complexities of development on a budget. If you cannot convince the people who would want to buy your game of its viability, the solution may not be to find less intimately knowledgeable (and interest-charging) sources of cash; it may be to rethink your approach. Which establishes a solid stone foundation for:
- Balance familiarity and originality – Minecraft is often praised for its originality – the creative, construction-based gameplay is certainly very different from the linear process and constant stream of enemies of many a AAA game. To indie games, a clear (and acknowledged) debt can be seen to Infiminer. Farmore importantly, however, the basic structure – smash objects up into blocks, and then use those blocks to build new objects – is familiar from Lego, Duplo and any number of other building toys. In the same way, connoisseurs of the physics-based 2D game might see Angry Birds as in the line of other games such as Crush the Castle, but far more relevant to the soft middle is its resemblance to a coconut-based fairground game, or a consequence-free version of the simple pleasures of throwing bricks into your neighbours' garden. There are many immediately resonant systems which the gaming mainstream has neglected or abandoned. Which sets up a mine cart railroad to:
- Take depth out of the mechanics – Battlefield 3 is a tremendously deep game – mastering the particular quirks of its mulitplayer to the point where one could be considered an expert takes dozens or even hundreds of hours. However, its premise is extremely simple – shoot man in head, shoot man in head, shoot man in head. Due to its mechanical complexity, it can only be played on the most expensive and least portable devices, took years to develop and cost $60 on release. Minecraft's mechanic and premise are essentially indistinguishable – the complexity is provided largely by players coming together to build life-sized models of the Starship Enterprise, or their home city, or a fully functioning 8-bit computer built out of redstone powder. Because of the simplicity of the mechanics, a recognisable sort of Minecraftness can be delivered on phones, consoles, PCs or, with a little work, a kitchen table. Which allows one to dig deeper into:
- Merchandise appropriately – When Rovio designed the character models for Angry Birds, it was with an eye on a future market in plush toys, simple, vector-animated cartoons and other commercial opportunities (for more of Rovio's story, this piece by Tom Cheshire in Wired is worth reading). The market for Angry Birds merchandise, from (seemingly pointless) tabletop recreations of the core gameplay to branded phone cases and – indeed – plush toys. The simplicity of Minecraft's visuals, and the immediate familiarity of its mechanic, made a tie-up with Lego blindingly obvious. Without surrendering equity, Minecraft is now making one of the most recognisable toy enterprises in the world intimately concerned with its success. Which builds a tunnel to:
- Build cultural capital - The first MineCon was a joke – Persson had a spare day in Washington, and asked if anyone wanted to hang out.Of the 50 people who arrived, one appeared in a full-body costume portraying the Creeper, Minecraft's most iconic and infuriating enemy. This mix of terrifying and gratifying runs through a huge gamut of unofficial products – T-shirts, badges, posters, graphic images, crocheted monsters and so on.
Concerted and professional bootlegging and piracy is, of course, a different matter – like many PC-centric experiences, Minecraft has had to formulate a response to piracy. Admittedly from a position of already being very successful, Persson has effectively given moral permission to inidividuals who want to play Minecraft but cannot afford it, responding thus to a Twitter request for a free account: "Just pirate it. If you still like it when you can afford it in the future, buy it then. Also don't forget to feel bad. ;)" While this attitude is infuriating to major publishers who are selling not just the code but also the disc, the box and the logistical chain that delivers it to the store, and who would like to see all software creators putting up a united front, it makes perfect sense. Small studios – even hugely successful ones – cannot afford to persecute individual malefactors, or direct their time and money in implementing digital rights management (DRM), or employing support staff and PR agencies when the DRM fails and locks out legitimate users. Instead of lamenting immediate sales that would not happen – of game copies or official merchandise – Mojang uses individual bottlegging or crafted products to build cultural awareness. Which leads to growth in awareness and brand capital, which leads in turn to the diamond-encrusted seams of:
- Know when to cash in. So far, Mojang has put few feet wrong – buggy builds and racially offensive content inserted into a fan translations have been forgiven due to the assiduous generation of brand capital elsewhere. They are in a position to decline investment from legends like Sean Parker, whose early involvement in FaceBook and Napster are the stuff of legend and movie treatments.In a similar position – although with a product with yet greater brand power, despite a massively lower per-unit cost, Rovio has generated further capital from Accel Partners (another part of the Facebook story) and Niklas Zennstrom's Atomico, with a $42 million fundraising round last March. This has helped to propel the brand into Hollywood and even Earth orbit. When Minecraft takes the next step and how is a subject of interest. Mojang's low-profile CEO, Carl Manneh, sees no immediate need for capitalisation from outside. When the war chest needs to be strengthened, the hunger for new markets means that Mojang may be sitting on a gold mine, and can craft some very profitable terms.
Full disclosure: The author really doesn't know if that mining-metaphor link bit between the bullets worked, and may dynamite it later and build a reflecting pool instead.
Further disclosure: The author knows the gag should really be "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Voxels", but it didn't sound as good. To those who are annoyed by this, I offer as compensation a promise not to then get into a discussion of whether or not describing Minecraft as voxel-based or simply voxel-esque is more correct.

Good find Kara. Ben is being interviewed by Mark Suster in three weeks and hopefully will get asked about this. http://startupgrind.com/2014
Well-known VC Ben Horowitz, who has become a pretty prolific blogger about all things tech, including a recent piece on this site, has apparently graduated to a book author.
Now appearing on Amazon and set to debut on March 4, the new tome by the Andreessen Horowitz venture partner and entrepreneur — whom I have dubbed "the brains," while Marc Andreessen of browser fame I call "the brawn" — is titled "The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers."
Well, that's certainly a mouthful, but will be, according to the description, based on his blog and will include, natch, lessons from rap, a favorite Horowitz writing technique:
While many people talk about how great it is to start a business, very few are honest about how difficult it is to run one. Ben Horowitz analyzes the problems that confront leaders every day, sharing the insights he's gained developing, managing, selling, buying, investing in, and supervising technology companies. A lifelong rap fanatic, he amplifies business lessons with lyrics from his favorite songs, telling it straight about everything from firing friends to poaching competitors, cultivating and sustaining a CEO mentality to knowing the right time to cash in.
In becoming a long-form, dead-trees scribe, Horowitz joins Silicon Valley authors like leaning-in-to-a-bestseller Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and another uber-VC, Reid Hoffman.
Not known until now, rapper Nas is going to do the Q&A with Ben at the SXSW conference in Austin on March 9.

The Modern Historic: A Vintage Getaway Collection
We New Yorkers are looking for an escape. Somewhere exotic, enchanting, and definitely somewhere warm. So we're booking a trip with husband and wife team Kristen Lindholm and Nicholas Dewey's The Modern Historic. A frequent Fab favorite on Vintage Mondays, the vintage purveyor of fashion and furnishings represents the best and boldest designs from the 1940s through 1960s. Tonight's tropically tempting collection has been curated with resort vacations in mind, and being that they're headquartered in Palm Beach, Florida, they know a thing or two about fun in the sun. Tell us more Kristen…
What's the history of The Modern Historic?
We have always been collecting items from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Growing up on Long Island, I would travel into the New York City to go vintage clothing shopping at Antique Boutique, Andy's Cheepies, and Screaming MiMi's. Nick has collected records and vintage clothing since he was a teenager. We got together when we were both 20 years old and have been collecting ever since. We were always into 1950s-1960s era items and have refined our taste over time. We collected so much that at one point decided to start selling it and turn it into a business.
Tell us about your personal collection…
I love 1950's "Lucy/Rockabilly" dresses as well as Mod shifts, and Nick is always on the hunt for 1950s smoking jackets and robes. We love to find anything that has survived the Tiki boom of the 1950s and 1960s. Nick DJ's dance parties at the Mai Kai in Fort Lauderdale—it's one of the oldest and greatest Tiki/Polynesian restaurants. We also have an addiction to mid-century modern and Danish furniture—patio furniture is one of our major weaknesses. We have a large collection of pieces by Woodard, Salterini, Richard Schultz and more. We really love it, and have done well selling it throughout the years. It's a hard business to be in when you collect what you sell, because you want to keep it all!
What's the one vintage piece in your closet you'd never get rid of and why?
I have a vintage Jorma Laine Brutalist ring that Nick got me from a dealer in Sweden. It's huge and has a great design. I collect atomic and Brutalist style jewelry, necklaces, bracelets, and rings.
What are your Atomic Age inspirations?
When it comes to fashion, we are inspired by styles, patterns, and colors we like. We are not overly concerned about specific designers. In the world of architecture and industrial design we are inspired by Eero Saarinen, Paul Mccobb, Greta Grossman, Lucieen & Robin Day, Florence Knoll, the Eames, Peter Hvidt, Alexander Girard, Richard Nuetra. Any movies that have cool vintage fashion and mid-century modern interiors are great, like Quadrophenia, The Wanderers, The Outsiders, High School Hellcats—we have a jukebox just like one in that movie.
Vintage shopping can be a lot like treasure hunting…have you found anything exciting lately?
We recently acquired a vintage 1960s Disneyland Enchanted Tiki Room robe. They are very rare and this is the first one we have ever seen. We love vintage Hawaiiana and Tiki, so we were very excited to find it. It's from Disneyland in the 1960's. They have fantastic graphics. There were shirts and dresses made also. Any originals are very rare today—we have only ever seen this one robe version.
What's the one book in your reference library you would recommend to vintage newbies?
Mid Century Modern by Cara Greenberg is a great one if you want to know more about furniture from the 1950s. It has information on numerous designers, and a lot of photos. She also put out a book called Op to Pop that is all about the 1960s and Space Age furniture.
Do you have any favorite pieces in tonight's resort collection? Where would you wear them?
It's a toss up between the '70s Abstract Print Day Dress and the '60s Boca Blue Day Dress. Either one I would wear with that great '60s Palizzio Lucite Handbag and some Cat Eye sunglasses to go over to Palm Beach Island and walk around with my daughters by the beach. There is an awesome mid condo building there that we dream about living in!
If you were firing up Doc Brown's DeLoreon and taking a vintage vacation back in time, where would you go and what would you wear?
I'd go back to some point in the 1950s and get to a Rockabilly or Little Richard concert as fast as I could! In which case I would wear one of the 1950s shirtwaist dresses I have, and my atomic poodle necklace! P.S. Do I get to keep the DeLoreon? Hah!
Thanks for warming us up, Kristen! If you're ready to pack your bags with Polynesian Pop and Palm Beach prep, head over to The Modern Historic's event for fashion that fuels our vacation fantasies! The'70s Red Travel Handbag would go great with our rainboots too? Right?

On Thursday, NASCAR announced significant changes related to NASCAR Hall of Fame eligibility requirements and the selection process. Also, a new award was created to recognize contributions to the sport.
"We're very proud of how the NASCAR Hall of Fame has evolved and believe the first five classes reflect the strength of the nominating and voting procedures, with voices from every corner of our industry included in the selection process," NASCAR Vice President and Chief Communications Officer Brett Jewkes said. "Based on feedback from voters, industry insiders, media who cover our sport, and the fans, we believe the changes announced today are a strong recognition of the uniqueness of our sport and will make the overall selection process even stronger in how we honor those who have driven NASCAR to great success on and off the track."
The previous eligibility criteria called for drivers to have competed in NASCAR for at least 10 years and been retired for three years to be eligible for NASCAR Hall of Fame nomination. For the most part, that rule still stands, with a couple of exceptions. Now, once a driver turns 55, he/she is immediately eligible for Hall of Fame consideration the nominating year after turning 55, as long as he/she has competed in the sport for a minimum of 10 years. Also, a driver who has competed for at least 30 years becomes immediately eligible for consideration, regardless of age.
Another change is the number of nominees per year. Previously, the NASCAR Hall of Fame nominating committee selected 25 nominees per year from which the five inductees were chosen. Beginning with the selection process for the 2015 class of inductees, though, that number will decrease to 20.
NASCAR has also decided to change the make-up of the nominating and voting committees. Nominees from the previous year's ballot will not be allowed to return to the nominating committee the following year, and nominees will not be allowed to be on the voting committee when he/she is a nominee. Also, the reigning Sprint Cup champion will be added to the voting panel.
In addition, NASCAR has created the Landmark Award for Outstanding Contributions to NASCAR. The award will honor "significant contributions to the growth and esteem of NASCAR," according to the statement released by the sanctioning body.
Award recipients may be competitors, race team members, track officials, sponsors, media, or general ambassadors of the sport. The award winner will be chosen from among five yearly nominees. The nominees will be chosen by the NASCAR Hall of Fame nominating committee and voted on by the voting panel at the same time as the Hall of Fame nominees and inductees.
The nominating committee will meet to determine nominees for 2015 induction on Feb. 21, 2014, and the voting committee will decide the inductees on May 21, 2014, for official induction in early 2015.

Finding the right shop fittings for your store can be a very difficult task. You would do well to consider the use of your store and the space which you have available as this will help you to find the best solution for your shop. Click here for more info. Many shops now use slatwall and slatwall panels in their stores as these are great for displaying all sorts of products and goods on. The slatwall literally fixes to an existing wall and turns that wall in to a display stand. Hooks and or shelves can be inserted in to grooves within the slatwall panel and this then does allow for all sorts of different products to be displayed. These slatwall panels are maintenance free and also require very little cleaning as they are not large in size and to the customer will appear as though they are the wall. So consider your shop and its use and you will find the best shop fittings for your store. You will have to be very sound in
Shop fitting are vital

Best Mail Order Holiday Gifts
Please help me find some ideas for great food gifts that I can have delivered to customers for the holiday season.
I've done Florida Fruit, Wines, jams & jellies among others in the past and was hoping to find something a little different this year.
Try Dean & Deluca (if you can afford it).
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of a HarryandDavid fruit of the month subscription I received as a gift. Thought it would be lame...but it was great. (Just the fruit, not necessarily the candy/confections).
Balducci's- www.balduccis.com
Godiva chocolate. Their chocolate doesn't live up to the reputation, but the gift looks impressive.
Gus Gallucci's market- www.tasteitaly.com
West Point Market- gourmet grocery with very nice gift baskets
Harry London candies.
It is NOT cheap but:
1) zingermans.com - they have a BREAD CLUB which is great and tasty along with tons of other gift packages. All delish and all well received.
2) stonewallkitchen.com - they have nice baskets/gifts and the day after Turkey Day they did a free shipping thing last year, fyi.
3) burdicks chocolate - the chocolate mice and penguins are a big hit and very tasty. My clients love getting them.
A Southern Season, an awesome gourmet store from Chapel Hill, nC has some gorgeous gifts http://www.southernseason.com/, I've always had good luck with them (and note, not everything is "Southern")
If you are sending it to an office situation, one of our clients used to send us these awesome brownies from Fairytale Brownies--they were awesome & individually wrapped, but classy.
Round Pond has a wonderful selection of olive oil, vinegar, flavored oils, and flavored syrups. Incredible quality, great for any cook or hardcore foodie.
Laszlos Smoked Fish makes delicious smoked salmon. I haven't tried any of their other offerings but the salmon is to die for.
Dr. Bob's ships their excellent ice creams anywhere in the US. There's something fun about getting ice cream in the mail, though the dry ice does make the shipping cost high.
Boudin Bakery in San Francisco has a bread club where you can get loaves of their wonderfully tangy sourdough bread: http://www.boudinbakery.com/
Seabear in Washington State has great salmon - smoked, etc.: http://www.seabear.com/
Louisiana Crawfish Company will have crawfish back in season in December/January: http://www.lacrawfish.com/
Tienda.com has a great assortment of Spanish foods and products: http://www.tienda.com
Last year I received 2 gifts from Pittman and Davis http://www.pittmandavis.com/
One was a 3 package of breads, another was a 2 pack of fat-free marinades. I liked both of them, and in fact was thinking of giving these as a few gifts this year.
Shari's Berries! Getting these gigantic chocolate covered strawberrries during the holidays were the highlight of my job. Wow. They come in a variety of chocolates coatings.
For country ham, bacon, sausage, cheese, beaten biscuits, and many other Southern goodies go to
I have bought hams and other items from them for over 35 years.
re: Markauf
After receiving holiday gift baskets over several years, I've come to the conclusion that it makes a difference on whether you sending it to say thank you to a male or a female. Being a male of the species, what I would most welcome recieving is a gift basket of about 4 smoked meats some of which one wouldn't find in very many restaurants or supermarkets. Example, smoked:
Salmon (it's everywhere, but still very welcome in an assortment)
Goose (very Christmas-sy)
~ ect. ~
Unfortuneatly, the place I was thinking of is way over $50; however, if anybody knows where to get the above for about $50, please post it!
re: JBC
give this seller a look
If your looking for a big presentation for the buck, check out this seller. I've sent the Breakfast in Bed tray many times and it's outstanding at its advertised price point.
How about a basket filled with a culinary theme such as italian, greek or chinese? or a basket filled with kitchen gadgets with a limited culinary presentation! Of course it depends how much you want to spend!
We received a nice box of Neiman Marcus petit fours during the Holidays a couple of years ago & thought they were delicious (not too sweet). I subsequently looked for them online & it was no longer available. I was reminded of it the other day & looked on their website & sure enough, there it was for the Holidays! Sent one to my sister for her upcoming milestone birthday...free shipping AND free gift wrapping!!!

I'll be posting on the regular now.
Anytime. :)
Thank you! I'm going to try to see if I can hunt it down
I've got biracial hair.
The texture is noticeable, unique, different,
and I never seemed to appreciate it's roots until recently.
Roots of immigrants coming to start a new life,
and roots of slaves coming against their will, pleading for a return of their own.
My hair gets tangled often, brushing it sucks.
The curls form an identity contradiction,
just like the other mulattoes who lived long before me,
when the n word was freely used to degrade,
and the oppressed tried to better themselves.
I've got the Holy Spirit.
He's part of a Trinity, three in one,
a concept nobody seems to understand.
But I guess I'd be lying if I said I fully do.
Sometimes I feel I relate to the Holy Spirit,
not understood, a social contradiction.
And no matter how real we both are, people rarely notice or care,
unless they want something from us.
However, I can never truly compare to the Holy Spirit,
for He has no fault.
He's there for all who call on Him.
He's the best thing that could happen to anyone,
even in this crumbling world.
He's my best friend, and there for me all the time,
and He will always be the greatest thing I could ask for.
I am often denied, I am often confused,
I have a messy style, life, and mind.
Yet I am joyful, despite my many flaws,
with my biracial hair, and Holy Spirit.

I listened to a Russell Hill today (on video) very familiar with Clark County property. He was a prior BLM ´volunteer´ and help do title searches and land surveying all over the area. His niche is real estate. He accessed the Clark County tax/appraisal files after the BLM/Bundy saga began and found some very, very interesting information. Bunch of LLCs and a Reid LLC where there was no cost of land assessed for tax purposes and these plots seem to grow from adjacent BLM plots with no transfer actions. History of said transfers seems non-existent as well and he said someone with time needs to investigate these ´fishy´ dealings. Also, he found one 10 acre plot of land sold for $700,000 plus to BLM. That was just mind boggling to him for that price.He mentioned the millions spent on a road intersection in the middle of nowhere which virtually goes no where, and the plum in the pudding of where the March 14 groundbreaking photo of Dingy Harry was taken, road access from the multi-million road to no where the most feasible route would run right through the heart of the land Cliven Bundy OWNS. Makes one go HMMMMMMMM. Maybe Dingy Harry is due a thorough investigation on all of the land deals he´s pulled off since being in the Senate.

Wow, this is really interesting. Never hear him talk about this but I´m not surprised. The investigation will never happen while Dirty Harry is in the leadership position. My take is that we will never see an investigation if Mitch McConnell becomes Senate Leadership.

How about the BLM´s thug tactics of snipers, destroying fences, digging up and destroying water lines, killing cattle (were the snipers practicing?), then burying them in mass graves?The BLM is run by thugs who are happy to enforce the policies of the grand thugs in the administration and the WH, including the grand thug of Dirty Harry so he can pull another shady land deal to make himself even richer.

Drew Lachey tweeted that he and Anna Trebunskaya are up first on "Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars" tonight (8-10 p.m., Channel 9/ABC):
"Alright people, @atrebunskaya and I are dancing 1st tomorrow so don't be late. We're starting week 3 with a BANG! Vote, vote, vote #dwts." You can follow him here.
Three things to know about this week's competition:
–It will be a double ellmination tomorrow. Two celebrities go home.
–Tonight is "Iconic Dance Night," for which judge Len Goodman has asked the couples to re-do an iconic dance performance from a past show, and heat it up with "eye-popping stuff,'" to use Goodman's words.
–For the first time, the celebrities were told to take creative control of the routine. So Lachey might have an advantage over a football player, race car driver or Olympic champions.
Maybe that's why Drew and Anna open the show?
I'll post the scores tonight after the show.

Responsive Sites With Foundation
Things are changing rapidly for front-end developers. It seems that every day someone is releasing a brand new framework, bootstrap, boilerplate or some other convenience meant to get our projects up and running as quickly as possible. And with Responsive Web Design (RWD) being the hot topic that it is, even more are being released to cater to responsive's specific needs.
I'd used Twitter's Bootstrap framework on several projects and overall, I quite liked it. It's not without its flaws, but it also served as a great introduction to streamlining writing CSS with a preprocessor like LESS.
However, when it came time to start prototyping a large responsive site, I had to reevaluate how far Bootstrap could take me. While it does have some responsive features, they're not active "out of the box" and not very comprehensive*.
(* Note that I'm referring to Twitter Bootstrap 2. A review of Bootstrap 3 will be forthcoming.)
Enter Foundation
That's where Foundation comes in, billing itself as "the most advanced responsive front-end framework in the world". I'm not sure I'd go that far, but it's pretty darn good.
Foundation includes several CSS components for things like alert boxes and progress bars, as well as JavaScript plugins for handling things like image carousels, tooltips and tabbed content.
What sets this framework apart is that every single one of its parts is built to be totally responsive.
The Setup
Flexibility is the name of the game with Foundation, and this definitely extends to how you set it up.
Plain CSS
If you just want to get started ASAP, and using SASS for CSS preprocessing isn't your thing, you can download a version of Foundation that includes just static files. The downside is that most of the code is in a single .css file that's 4,600+ lines long(!), which could get a little overwhelming.
Customized CSS
This is the same basic build as the Plain CSS option above, only you can configure your customized Foundation download via a convenient wizard form. You check only the CSS and JavaScript components you want included as well as set your grid widths and gutters.
Standalone SASS
If you're familiar with using SASS for your CSS production, or just want to get a crash course, you can download a version of Foundation that includes all the .scss files you'll need. This package can be acquired by downloading a .zip file from the GitHub project.
Sass with Compass
And for the super nerdy, you can build your Foundation project with Compass. This gives you a lot of extra power tools like mixins for lists, typography, CSS3 properties and even creation of CSS sprite sheets (which I'll be exploring in a future article).
When going the SASS/Compass route, you're basically installing Foundation and Compass as Ruby gems and configuring Compass to "watch" your files and recompile SASS to CSS as changes are made. You can also use more visual tools like the amazing CodeKit app to simplify this process.
The caveat to this method is that you no longer have all of Foundation's .scss files within your project. They are included by Compass at compile time. This is all well and good until you need to make changes to Foundation's "stock" SASS files.
In the end, my team went with a hybrid approach. We still used Compass to do the compilation, but included all .scss files within the project. This allowed us to make minor tweaks to them as needed, and also include them in version control.
The Grid
At the core of Foundation (and in fact, most frameworks) is its grid system, and Foundation's may be the best I've seen. The grid included in Twitter Bootstrap is decent, but relies on pixel widths and you have to come up with the math for column divisions yourself (or by trial and error tweaking settings in a wizard).
In responsive fashion, the Foundation grid is based solely on percentages. And built-in SASS functions make it super easy to change column and gutter widths which get recalculated when compiled.
One of the coolest bonuses with the Foundation grids, though, is that it contains a few breakpoint-related variations of its column classes. For example, if a div container needs to be six columns on a mobile screen, you'd give it a class like so:

If you wanted that same element to span all 12 columns on a desktop screen, you'd add another class:

Foundation also includes utility classes to control when elements should be hidden or visible. For example, if there's an element you'd like to have hidden on a small display:

And if you'd like it visible on everything 768px wide or larger:

There are also useful variations like
.hide-for-portrait and
I should also note that the grid can be nested any number of levels deep, and has the usual utility classes for pushing, pulling and offsetting elements one way or another.
CSS Components
Foundation offers base CSS styles for rapid prototyping.
The Foundation framework includes a grand total of 35 SASS .scss files. This sounds like a lot until you realize you likely won't use them all. Even on the big site I worked on, we only included 11 of them. That's part of the beauty of Foundation: it's extremely modular. If all you wanted it for was its grid system (which is totally worth the price of admission), you could just include grid.scss and go on your merry way.
A lot of these components are more suited to rapid prototyping, where you want to just experiment with placement and hierarchy, as opposed to caring about design. Then once you have an actual design direction and you've tested your theories, you can slowly remove those CSS helpers. Some of them are quite useful, including:
Let's face it, styling forms is the bane of a UI developer's existence. However, the forms.scss included with Foundation, along with its JavaScript counterpart, make it much less painful. It already includes many helpful styles for elements like labels and fieldsets, but also has built-in styles for things like error states.
Flex Video
This is a simple addition that allows you to surround an embedded video (YouTube, Vimeo) with a wrapper that will enable the video to properly scale on any device.
JavaScript Components
Even more helpful than the CSS components are Foundation's JavaScript helper components, of which there are about 14. Here are a few I've found very helpful:
Orbit is Foundation's answer to an image carousel. While there is much debate as to whether carousels (or "sliders") are effective at all, we as UI developers will continue to need to implement them for the foreseeable future.
Not surprisingly, Orbit carousels are fully responsive. Other perks include the ability to deep link to individual slides, and it has a pretty nice preloader wrapper.
It also has some perplexing shortcomings, like not being able to configure whether it auto-plays or not. The slideshows start transitioning automatically no matter what. As a workaround, I had to add a fake "click" on the timer element to stop it before it starts:
$('.slideshow-wrapper').find('.orbit-timer span').click();
It also seems to have no support for being able to detect when only one slide is present. In a perfect world, this wouldn't happen, but if the slideshow is generated via a client-controlled CMS, it might come up. So we also had to add some JavaScript band-aids to deal with that eventuality.
The Section plugin is a super versatile tab and accordion component.
Section is an oddly-named component that is used to show and hide tabbed content. This super flexible component can be configured to show tabs vertically or horizontally, with content optionally shown by default.
It also can be used for horizontal and vertical nav bars, as well as accordions. And let's say you want to have tabbed content on desktop screens, but display it as a vertical accordion on phones. With a bit of JavaScript to detect screen width, you can dynamically add or remove an
.accordion class to do just that. Like I said, super flexible.
No self-respecting framework would be without some sort of modal dialog support, and Foundation has that covered. Reveal is pretty basic, but fully responsive, and you can specify how much of the screen you'd like it to take up.
Interchange is another weirdly-named component that's pretty useful. Well, sort of. It's a plugin that attempts to deal with serving multiple image sizes based on the screen dimensions, but not in an altogether successful way.
Here is an example implementation, from the Foundation docs:

This example makes things easier by allowing you to specify named media queries, such as "small", "medium", "portrait", etc. You would specify your smallest image as the image source and put the others inside the
data-interchange attribute.
The real issue with this approach is that the image source will ALWAYS download, no matter what. Worse, it will often result in a brief "flash," where the user will see the small version a split second before the proper one appears. For those reasons, we decided not to implement this particular component.
Caveats, Gotchas and Head-Scratchers
As great as Foundation is, it's not without its problems. Some are minor, and some still have me scratching my head. Here are a few things to consider when evaluating Foundation.
Browser support
One of the first questions you'll need to answer when considering Foundation is what browsers you're supporting. Since Foundation is mobile-first, any browser that does not support media queries will always be served the mobile version, regardless of screen size. I'm looking at you, IE 6-8. Luckily, you could still use something like Scott Jehl's Respond.js to augment that functionality.
Another thing to consider is that Foundation sets everything globally to
box-sizing: border-box, which essentially normalizes the box model to no longer figure padding into an element's width and height. This has really excellent support, but isn't available in IE 6-7.
Mobile First
You should also be aware that Foundation is built with "Mobile First" in mind. In a nutshell, this means you're building for the smallest screens possible (i.e., phones) first, and expanding out from there. Another way to think about it is starting with the least capable, lowest-bandwidth devices first, keeping their particular limitations in mind. Believe me, this can be hard to get your head around, but after a while, you'll just start thinking about it differently.
Naming Conventions
Speaking of thinking differently, Foundation also has some naming conventions that don't make a lot of sense. For example, it provides a few named breakpoints for use in media queries, like 'small', 'medium' and 'large'. However, the 'small' breakpoint starts at 768px, or tablet size. 'Medium' is 1280px, and 'Large' is 1440px and up. This naming scheme can be confusing when the first set of breakpoints you add onto mobile styles is called 'small'. Weren't we already at small?
Related to this is Foundation's breakpoint-based grid classes. They, too have a 'small' and 'large' version. But here, if you're defining grid widths for a small screen, you actually use a
.small-X class, and
.large-X actually starts at 768px. This has required a bit of tweaking on our end to make sure breakpoints on both grid classes and media queries jive right.
And speaking of naming, I have a bit of an issue with some of Foundation's component names. For instance, their form validation library is called "Abide." We had originally thought there was no validation, because none of the component names seemed to suggest that. Orbit, Interchange and Section also suffer from this sort of vague naming. I think you should be able to skim a list and figure out right away what everything does, but that's just me.
Missing Breakpoints
There also is a noticeable gap in Foundation's built-in breakpoints. The very first one starts at 768px, ostensibly for tablets like the iPad. Normally, you'd consider mobile to go up to about 480px. This leaves a weird phantom zone in Foundation between 480px and 768px, where tablets like the Nook and Kindle Fire live. Sometimes allowing them to adopt the mobile styles is just fine. But often, it just looks weird or broken. For this reason, we also had to go in and insert our own "medium" breakpoints to fill in this gap.
I should note, however, that as I write this, in the current version of Foundation (4.3.1), they are slowly transitioning in that missing breakpoint. There is an add-on grid-5.scss file that adds a medium breakpoint that covers from 640px-1024px. The large grid styles take over after that. It sounds like this will be standardized with Foundation 5.
So there you go. Despite some of its shortcomings, I've really enjoyed my time using the Foundation framework. More often than not, I've been impressed with the way its pieces "just work", particularly the responsive bits. It's clear the devs really know what they're doing and have put a lot of thought into making this not only a cohesive framework, but truly modular. And with advisors like "Mr. Mobile First", Luke Wroblewski himself, I'm excited to see what's next for Foundation.

What if the musicals Wicked and Rent were based on real stories? Jonathan Larson created the musical Rent, seeing it happen right in front of him while Oz is a real place over the rainbow, where politics gives the vision of who's good and who's wicked? Our Glee Cast would find out the truth and the secrets behind the 2 popular musicals the hard way as they slowly find out about their past resurrections. Would this affect their relationships? Change them as soon as they find their past lovers? Or would this be a test of their love for each other?
Wickedly-bohemian-glee is a crossover of Glee, Wicked and Rent, and is canon up till the end of Season 2. It features on the glee members as resurrections of the characters from the 2 popular musicals and follows their lives as they slowly remember and relive their past lives one more time, with one difference, this time, no one has aids, no one has magic and all that clings them to their past are memories and feelings of old love.

Jail project debt likely to exceed $122 million by 2043
By Alex Bridges -- email@example.com
The cost to pay off the debt for the valley's next regional jail would exceed $122 million, according to a report issued last week.
The Rappahannock-Shenandoah-Warren Regional Jail Authority will have spent that much by 2043 to pay off more than $83 million in loans achieved through bond sales, reports by Davenport & Company show.
The authority expects to receive more than $32 million as a reimbursement from the Virginia Department of Corrections early in the pay-back process. The authority -- funded by the three localities proportionately according to the inmates sent to the jail, as well as from state and federal sources -- would remain responsible for covering the rest of the debt.
Loans taken out by the authority would not appear as debt by the participating localities in their individual budgets. Instead, the amount each locality budgets to run their local jails would go to funding the authority.
The jail authority sought to borrow more than $32 million in bond-sale proceeds through the Virginia Resource Authority. The jail board expects the Virginia Department of Corrections to cover the loan amount -- 50 percent of approximately $65.68 million of the eligible project costs.
Like the Northwestern Regional Adult Detention Center in Frederick County, the authority for the RSW jail would divide the operating costs of the facility among the participating localities proportional to the number of inmates each provides.
The amounts spent by each locality on their local jails would instead go to the authority to cover part of the share of the operating costs of the regional facility. The formula calculated and presented in documents given to the authority board last week show the inmate population figures divided for planning purposes as follows: 13.3 percent from Rappahannock, 36.7 percent from Shenandoah and 50.0 percent from Warren.
As the project moves forward, foes of the initiative warn of additional unknown costs associated with the jail above the debt each locality essentially would assume. The materials provided by Davenport to the authority last week show the estimated operating cost of the jail could climb from $9.7 million at the facility's opening in 2015, to $11.6 million by 2021. At the same time, the authority could expect to see $6.8 million to $7.9 million in non-local revenue during that time frame, according to the Davenport documents.
But debts of nearly $190 million loom over Shenandoah and Warren counties even without the loans for the valley's next regional jail. Warren County owed a total of $116.12 million in loans as of the end of the previous fiscal year June 30, 2011, according to County Administrator Douglas Stanley. Shenandoah County had a total loan debt at the end of last fiscal year of more than $70 million, according to Walker.

Report: Robert Gallery agrees to three-year deal with Seahawks
|07.27.11 at 2:23 pm ET
Offensive lineman Robert Gallery has agreed to sign a three-year deal with the Seahawks, according to a tweet from Adam Schefter. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft had spent his whole career in Oakland, and will now be reunited with Tom Cable. Cable was the head coach of the Raiders from 2008-10 and will serve as an offensive line coach and assistant head coach in Seattle.
In April of 2004, Sports Illustrated's Peter King called Gallery "the best lineman to come out of college in years."

WOONSOCKET – A non-profit developer from Providence wants to build a 42-unit apartment complex for low-income senior citizens off Privilege Street.
Omni Privilege Limited Partnership's proposal for Waterview South Elderly Apartments would represent not just the biggest addition to the city's stock of affordable housing for the elderly in years, but the biggest housing development of any kind since well before the recession began in 2008.
BURRILLVILLE — A 23-year-old teacher and town resident was arrested early yesterday morning and charged with one count each of Enticement of Children, Child Pornography Prohibited and Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor.
At 5:40 a.m., detectives and officers from the Burrillville Police Department, the R.I. State Police ICAC Team (Internet Crimes Against Children) and a deputy from the U.S. Marshal's Office served a search warrant at the home of Justin W. Menoche, at 1871 Victory Highway.
Seized in the raid were a laptop computer, cell phone and an external hard drive, police said.
The recent string of rainy weather, resulting in a myriad of postponements, will not impede the high school baseball playoffs from starting on time.
The Interscholastic League sent out a reminder to coaches on Thursday – the fourth consecutive day that wetness impacted the high school scene – that Monday is still the last day of the regular season. The brackets in Division I and II will be distributed to the schools on Tuesday with Wednesday serving as the official opening of the postseason.
PAWTUCKET — There's strength in numbers. That's why the merger of two longstanding and successful credit unions is good news for local residents in this challenging economy.
Alliance Blackstone Valley Federal Credit Union, of Pawtucket, and Blackstone River Federal Credit Union, headquartered in Woonsocket, are merging.
The announcement by credit union officials was made this week, with the legal merger set to take place on Sept. 30.
WOONSOCKET — James DeForest doesn't have to wonder how much cigarette business he's losing to neighboring Massachusetts. His customers tell him right to his face.
"As it stands now customers verbally discuss how much cheaper tobacco is in Massachusetts," said the manager of JB Liquors on Social Street.
"They will actually make another stop to avoid purchasing cigarettes in our store."
PROVIDENCE — The first offseason departure has arrived for Providence College as the school announced Thursday that sophomore guard Duke Mondy has been released from his commitment.
Mondy departs after a 2010-11 campaign that saw the Michigan native sit out the final four games of the season. At the time the only thing PC officials said about Mondy's situation was that it was a "coach's decision." Mondy did appear at Ed Cooley's introductary press conference in March, telling Blackstone Valley Sports when asked to clarify his situation that, "I'm good, just can't wait to play."

The last thing you should be doing is contaminating the surfaces with any kind of oil/lubricant. The glue will act as a lubricant at final assembly. Dry fit everything, and use a magic marker to help realign mating sections and fixtures at final assembly. To make the dry fit a little easier, use some fine sand paper or "crocus cloth" to make sure there are no burrs on edges or "scrape" shavings on mating surfaces.--Keep your eye on the ball, your shoulder to the wheel, your nose to the grindstone, and your ear to the ground. Now, try to work in that position!!!

Making the World Safe for Democracy? Diversity in the First World War
Saturday, March 29 at 9:00 am
Greek Village Conference Center, Ballroom
Open to the Public, No Tickets Required
When the United States entered World War I, President Woodrow Wilson explained that Americans were fighting to "make the world safe for democracy." This one-day workshop brings together three of the nation's leading experts on the war to examine the ways that Wilson's promise did and did not ring true. The workshop highlights the many ways that matters of race, religion, gender, and ethnic and national interests led European powers to war in 1914, and the ways that these issues shaped the war's conduct until the guns fell silent in 1918.
