Burj Khalifa, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Looking down from the tallest building in the world – the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, UAE. (flickr/andrewhallpics)
If you're looking to slowly get over acrophobia, the tallest building in the world wouldn't be for you. Burj Khalifa in Dubai stands 2,716 feet high and opened in 2010, according to BBC.com. Construction on this massive tower, which contains 28,000 glass panels, began in 2004.
Burj Khalifa boasts the world's highest mosque on the 158th floor, and the highest swimming pool, 76 floors off the ground, BBC reports. But it's the observation deck on the 124th floor that provides spectacular images of Dubai that's sure to make some tourists dizzy.

The Elusive, Renamed Acrohelipro
"People have been asking me, 'Can you tell me where Acrohelipro is?'" Donald Jackson said Monday afternoon, right after making the official announcement that the Richmond, British Columbia-based helicopter MRO provider and modification specialist now lives under the Vector Aerospace umbrella.
Jackson, executive chairman of Vector Aerospace, said the name change is part of an international consolidation under the Vector brand to pool the resources and capabilities of several entities to become "a low-cost global producer of helicopter services." The former Acrohelipro, now Vector Aerospace Helicopter Services, joins Vector's MRO assets Atlantic Turbines International, Sigma Aerospace and the soon-to-be-acquired UK-based Defense Aviation Repair Agency (DARA) under the Vector Aerospace banner.
Dave McGrath, Vector Aerospace Helicopter Services marketing manager, noted that efficiencies resulting from the consolidation of resources, knowledge and skills will produce enhanced levels of quality, service and customer satisfaction through shorter turnaround times and greater component availability throughout the organization.
Helicopter Services has engine overhaul facilities in Dallas and Van Nuys, Calif., in addition to the British Columbia site.

Florida RB Mike Gillislee's long, patient journey leads him to Miami Dolphins in Round 5
- 3:28 pm Saturday, April 27th, 2013 by Jason Lieser
Hardly anyone outside of Florida was aware of RB Mike Gillislee a year ago. Now he's headed to the NFL.
The Miami Dolphins took Gillislee in the fifth round with the No. 164 overall pick. He is 5-foot-11, 208 pounds and ran the 40-yard dash in 4.55 seconds at the NFL Combine.
ESPN's Mel Kiper: No Gators going in first three rounds of NFL Draft
- 6:58 am Thursday, January 26th, 2012 by Jason Lieser
The good news for Florida is that some players will be drafted. The bad news is that none of them are going until the fourth round.
That's how ESPN analyst Mel Kiper, Jr., sees this year's UF draft class.

Gators start QB John Brantley vs. Georgia despite ankle injury
- 3:44 pm Saturday, October 29th, 2011 by Jason Lieser
Florida coach Will Muschamp said all week senior John Brantley would start against Georgia today unless something "shocking" happened. Apparently, Brantley was healthy enough to play and he took the first snap against the Bulldogs this afternoon in Jacksonville.
Florida Gators updates: QB John Brantley still on track to start vs. Georgia
- 4:37 pm Wednesday, October 26th, 2011 by Jason Lieser

Florida Gators injury report heading into Georgia week
- 7:17 am Friday, October 21st, 2011 by Jason Lieser
Gators coach Will Muschamp says he won't use injuries or inexperience as excuses.
Injuries have been a problem for Florida, which was gone without starting QB John Brantley the past two and a half games due a high right ankle sprain. Brantley could practice Monday, which means he may be available for next Saturday's game against Georgia in Jacksonville (3:30 p.m., CBS).
Gators injury updates: Ronald Powell, Jeff Demps, Caleb Sturgis
- 3:23 am Sunday, October 16th, 2011 by Jason Lieser
A few Florida players left Saturday's 17-6 loss at No. 24 Auburn with injuries. The biggest concern might be an apparent knee injury to kicker Caleb Sturgis.
Sturgis hit field goals from 25 and 47 yards for the Gators' only points, but did not play in the second half. Coach Will Muschamp said he had a leg injury; it looked like trainers were examining his right knee on the sideline.

10.6: Create new AppleScript document Service
I did not know there was already a service for this, even though I looked for it (not closely enough apparently). I'm running 10.6 and I found it under the development services just like crarko adds above.
By the way, here is an update to my original hint above, preventing script failure when AppleScript Editor is running with no open documents:
10.6: Create new AppleScript document Service
ASE behaves strangely with

For some reason it checks for errors. Sometimes the dialog opens behind the created document, sometimes it doesn't appear at all.

(Still image from Glengarry Glen Ross)
Where there are startups, there are events. Lots of events! There are events for entrepreneurs, product people, marketing, BD, hackathons, you name it.
But what about salespeople? No events for salespeople!
Salespeople are often underappreciated and viewed as half-intelligent meatheads to most people. But ask any serious entrepreneur and he/she will tell you that a good salesperson/sales team are one of the most crucial elements of an organization's success, especially at a tech company.
That's why FastPay, along with LA startup TaskUs, decided to throw a sales event - Startup Cinema: Sales Movie Night. The idea for the event was simple: show a classic sales movie, Glengarry Glen Ross, to get the crowd fired up, and then have panel with 3 of LA's top sales pros share some tips and insights.
Our panelists were Kevin Gaither, VP of Sales at uSamp and guru of Inside Sales; Brooke Partelow, EVP of Sales at Bounce Exchange and veteran of making it rain in tech; and Dennis Velasco, Head of SMB at Conerstone OnDemand, aka the guy who builds companies within companies. Our moderator was none other than Aaron Ross, author of Predictable Revenue, and if you aren't familiar with Aaron Ross and his sales teachings just know that your company is probably generating half the revenue it could be. Stomach that or go buy his book.
Since the audience was filled with salespeople working in tech or trying to break in, the panel shared what the people wanted to hear: Why work in sales at a startup? How do I advance my career? How do I pick the right startup and how do I get in? How can I go from salesperon to another role at a startup - BD, product, marketing?
The audience loved it.
Some tips from the panelists:
Why work in sales at a startup?
You can more easily see the impact your sales efforts while working at a startup. Why? Because, as a salesperson, you're the one in the organization on the front lines interacting with customers and directly impacting growth. You have the opportunity to learn more about the customer than anyone else, and learning about your customer is the single most important thing a startup can do.
How do I advance my career in sales?
Keep detailed notes on your results and the results of each and every team member, and use this knowledge to figure out what works and what doesn't? The information gained from progress made (or not made) will be crucial in building a team and scaling your sales process. It's also information that other companies will want from you.
These gems and other key takeaways from FastPay's Startup Cinema Presents were invaluable advice to me, as a salesperson myself, and a member of the FastPay team. On behalf of the entire sales team, I would like to extend a thank you to TaskUs for co-sponsoring the event and letting us use their movie theater. And a huge thanks to all the panelists, and to everyone that showed up.
We'll see all of you rainmakers at our next sales event!

Account Executive, FastPay
Last week at the Gaming Developer Conference (GDC) in San Francisco it wasn't hard to spot the dominant themes throughout - mobile & monetization. As videogame giants start to adopt mobile and freemium models it has become apparent that mobile and social gaming are officially a part of the mainstream.
The Gaming Report recently released by App Annie & hardware research firm IDC states that iOS App Store and Google Play game downloads combined have eclipsed dedicated handheld games in consumer spending in Q4 2012. As a result, independent developers are sprouting up left and right to try and capitalize on the demand for this type of mobile entertainment.
Ad operations companies have tried any number of methods to help drive monetization but from what we heard from the developers we spoke with at GDC, they receive daily sales pitches from an array of ad firms who all have strikingly similar product offerings (maybe same-day payouts would be a way for them to distinguish themselves from their competitors?)
With this new focus on mobile comes a new set of challenges for both independents and ad ops. Ad operations businesses are adapting to the ever-changing marketplace while having to simultaneously deliver results. While developers face excruciatingly long payment terms (45-75+ days) paired with the upfront costs of running a successful business.
These findings are not surprising to us at FastPay. We've seen a serious uptick in inquiries from this segment of the market. This industry is just getting started with some major growth ahead which also means major cash flow challenges as company's scale. Are you a game developer and deal with late payments that impact your ability to do business? Give us a call (310-651-9200) to learn how we can help you grow.

A story that published to WIRED late last week has both intrigued us and got us thinking wtf?
This story was titled Meet the Man Who Sold His Fate to Investors for $1 a Share and it circulated around the web like wildfire. This true story chronicled the life - controlled by shareholders (investors) - of Mike Merrill, a man who at age 30 broke his life down into shares and sold his entire existence to stockholders who would claim ownership of almost every decision he had to make. This group of shareholders was made up of family members, girlfriends (ex)girlfriends, and total stangers buying and trading Merrill's stock after an IPO; This is not an April Fool's joke, this is real.
We couldn't help but draw parallels between this ludicrous scenario and that of entrepreneurs and their startups when it comes to taking an institutional investment over bootstrapping or an alternative lending solution. It wasn't long before the story revealed that Merrrill quickly learned the downside to taking on outside funding, beholden to shareholders in ways he had never imagined.
As crazy as this story may be, and outside of the scope of reality it may seem, as the article reads Every year, tech-industry entrepreneurs make a similar decision. Taking on investors is usually one of the first steps in Silicon Valley's well-established path to outrageous fortune. But at what cost? Tell us what you think, read the full story here and post your comments on our FastPay blog.
In a perfect world, startup founders would all have MBAs in Finance, be able to bootstrap their companies, and avoid dilution of shares like the plague. But that is not the case, nor is it a realistic expectation, especially among small to medium sized digital businesses where most specializations take a backseat to technology.
In this digital age, there is so much opportunity to create the next big thing, and we here at FastPay feel like business growth should not be limited or stifled by debt (although, sometimes debt can be a good thing. Stay tuned to the FastPay blog for more on that). That is why we are all about giving back to the entrepreneurial community by sharing what we know about startup finance.
Recently, our CFO, Mike McGlade, was interviewed by FinSMEs, a newsblog about financing for small and medium sized enterprises. In this interview, Mike shares examples of the type of businesses who use FastPay (web publishers, social marketing firms, app developers), and how they reinvest the working capital to stimulate their growth. Mike was also interviewed by web TV pioneer, TechZulu during South by Southwest. You can see that full video interview here and read the full FinSMEs article after the jump.
FastPay is a finance platform that provides lines of credit to growing digital businesses. Based in Beverly Hills, CA, the startup raised $25m in financing in 2012 (read here) and has already provided working capital to several companies. Mike McGlade, the Chief revenue officer, who previously worked at BetterWorks and Tellabs (NASDAQ: TLAB), answered our questions about the company, its product, and future plans. (continue reading)
Now that the dust has settled from SXSW, and we've washed the BBQ sauce off of our clothes, it's back to the daily hustle and bustle of life at a startup. For many, South by Southwest sounds like one big party - and for many, it is - and like most parties there is usually a lot of noise, but it is possible to get serious business done (even without a badge!) if you have the right approach.
The ultimate goal here at FastPay has always been to give entrepreneurs easy access to capital so that they wouldn't have to sacrifice their most precious assets: ownership and control. With this goal in mind, today represents a very significant day for FastPay and our customers, because we have officially crossed the $100 million mark in digital receivables lending. This means that over $100,000,000 of working capital gap financing has been put back into businesses to nurture growth, instead of in to fees, covenants, and personal guarantees associated with traditional lending options. Here are some really great articles about the news from our friends at PandoDaily and Forbes - a special thanks to both for your coverage of the big announcement!
We think this is a great time to be an entrepreneur, and the digital landscape is ripe with opportunity. We hope we have the opportunity to help you grow your business!

A few weeks ago, NerdWallet asked our CEO, Jed Simon to take part in their CEO Series of interviews featured on their blog. NerdWallet helps consumers save money and make smarter decisions about their personal finances, so naturally it was a great opportunity for Jed to provide some straightforward information about how FastPay can work for you. The complete interview is pasted below and available here. Enjoy!
Jed began his career in the Investment Banking New Media Group at Morgan Stanley & Co. in New York providing IPO, debt finance, and merger and acquisitions advisory services prior to joining DreamWorks SKG in 1996. During his ten year career at DreamWorks, Mr. Simon managed aspects of its finance, distribution, marketing, and new media businesses, and was a senior executive at DreamWorks Records before assisting in the sale of the company to Universal Music Group. His last position with DreamWorks was Vice President of International Distribution and Marketing for DreamWorks Pictures, based in London. Mr. Simon graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Brown University and is on the Board of Directors for Brown University Sports Foundation and is active with the Los Angeles County Museum of Contemporary Art and Big Brothers & Big Sisters of Los Angeles.
NerdWallet ("NW"): What is the role that alternative lending plays in the small business lending space?
Jed Simon, CEO of FastPay ("JS"): Historically, equity is the prevailing form of capital for small businesses. But equity is hard to get, primarily because banks are not progressive and they use traditional metrics to assess the viability of a business. Alternative lending sources allow businesses to get cash faster. We take 1-2 weeks to get you the loan—banks take 3-4 months.
NW: What is your typical client profile? Who do you usually lend to?
JS: Our typical clients are fast-growing businesses that are doing business with big brands (for example, Google). They're looking for capital to expand but trying to preserve their equity.
NW: So because they want to retain control over their business, they prefer to work with you rather than seek venture capital?
JS: Right. If they use venture capital, then someone else will own half the company, and they'll have to put them on a board of directors. We provide a very simple solution.
NW: How do you make these loans? Are you a direct lender?
JS: We are lending ourselves. We have our own sources of financing, but FastPay is a direct lender to small businesses. We've lent $100 million so far, and our average loan size is between $300,000 and $400,000. We're helping these businesses grow quickly.
NW: Do you generally make one loan to a business as it's starting up, or do you lend to the same business consistently according to their cash flow and needs?
JS: Typically, it's not a one-off deal. Our average relationship lasts several years. We're not just a quick fix. We are a permanent solution. If, say, the company has a fifteen million dollar contract that they get paid for every six months, and it takes a while for their client to pay them, we can lend them ten million dollars in the meantime. Then once they get paid the fifteen million, they pay us back. We charge a small fee, and our packages are very straightforward.
NW: How do you determine whether or not to lend to a business?
JS: There are 3 components we use to make our decision. The first and most important criterion is, who is this company is doing business with? We also look at the character of the individuals—are they seasoned executives? Do they have experience? Thirdly, we look at the business itself and what kind of business it is. This is the least important of the three.
NW: Why are you different from the other alternative lending firms out there, such as OnDeck, SpotLoan, Kabbage, etc?
JS: We're all innovating in different spaces. We work with tech companies. ZestCash (now called SpotLoan), for example, gives loans to consumers. OnDeck loans to brick and mortar companies, like restaurants or grocery stores. Kabbage loans to online retailers. We all focus on different spaces.
NW: What kind of businesses does FastPay finance?
JS: We're giving loans to technology businesses. Part of the cash crunch is that you've got these big brands spending a lot online, and businesses like our clients can't sit around and wait.
We typically lend to four types of companies:

Lessons from a Failed Social Entrepreneur
HBR Blog Network (Harvard Business Review)
by Mike McGlade | 9:00 AM February 11, 2013
During my first year at Harvard Business School, I decided to start a new business. I set up a team, choose a name, secured a URL, and Zoosa was born. My theory was that by leveraging the collective expertise of skilled professionals, we could have a significant impact on the social sector. Zoosa was intended to be a platform where volunteers shared their activities and connected with others, creating a positive feedback loop. The idea was that this would encourage some people to deepen their efforts and others to become new volunteers. Unfortunately, I had never worked for an early-stage business or in the social enterprise space. The result? My business failed.
My story is not unique. Though we don't often talk about failure in the social sector, I've seen numerous entrepreneurs waste countless hours working late into the nights and stubbornly plugging away throughout weekends. Even worse, many forfeit the opportunity to have a full time job in order to "follow their passion" as a first-time entrepreneur. They watch their social lives melt away at the same rate as their savings.
That's what I did. And it took me 2 years to put a bullet in Zoosa. I pivoted from a skills-based volunteering website to a platform for corporate social responsibility to a third concept — you'd use Facebook for your personal social network, Linkedin for your professional social network, and Zoosa for your social impact network. Ultimately, I didn't have the industry knowledge or the professional expertise to realize the vision. Eventually, I did two things that every social entrepreneur should do: set aside my ego and went back to step one — getting smart.
Here's my advice for any social entrepreneur who's decided he/she's got the next big idea:
Put your ego away. How often have you heard an entrepreneur — or a want-to-be entrepreneur — say they want to run their own business? It's almost as if they're starting with the end point and working backwards. They want to run a business and so they look for an "idea". Sometimes they're clever enough to at least look for a real problem to solve — but not always. Instead of focusing on what you want to be or what you want to achieve, think about what it is that someone else truly needs. You and your ego should be beside the point.
Get smart first. Entrepreneurs-in-the-making are often convinced they have the next big idea for an app or product or service. Do they know anything about building an app? Well, no. But they want to run a business. So they dive in. They've heard from others that entrepreneurship is about persistence in the face of adversity. So they persevere, even when the market is giving them negative feedback. This feedback is especially tough to hear for social entrepreneurs. Failure may be doubly hard when the market is saying no, but the social need still exists. Getting smart requires you spend time in the field you want to run a business in. Volunteer or get a job working in the industry or with the clients you want to serve. Enduring adversity is important but without the right experience and exposure to the field, you're unlikely to succeed.
Failure is not necessarily a bad thing but it has consequences. Consider how many nonprofits offer duplicative services or solutions, or early on learn that their original hypothesis is flawed. In all of those cases, the wasted time, effort, and capital only hurt the stakeholders — the folks the entrepreneur wants to help in the first place. Ego wins and stakeholders lose.
In the three years since I let Zoosa finally die, I've become an expert in building sales, marketing, and business development teams for early stage ventures. I've worked closely with several very successful entrepreneurs and investors and they've taught me a lot about everything from leadership to fundraising to recruiting. They're helping me get smart.
I plan to go back into social enterprise, and maybe even run my own business. But for now I'm content to focus on my passion: helping entrepreneurs build their businesses.
Before you don the social entrepreneur title and dive into building your enterprise consider if you need more experience to realize your idea. If you do, set down your entrepreneur ego and find a job. You need to get smart to make a difference.

No one said that change is easy. But given the changing tide within the publishing industry, retailers who want to stay ahead of the curve need to cushion their capital like never before as they transition into the digital media space. A recent article in the Wall Street Journal states that Amazon's e-book business has become a "multi-billion dollar category" for the retailer, while December, 2012 marked the lowest month of sales for physical books yet. e-Book sales have grown by 70% indicating a very clear paradigm shift so physical publishers have no choice but to acclimate to the digital medium in order to stay relevant.
Publishers who were used to getting paid right away for units sold under the old agreements are now faced with the cash flow problems that stem from transitioning to an e-book model. Downloadable content such as e-books means instantaneous access for the consumer, but it's the small-to-medium sized publishers that are paying the price. Many of them have shared with FastPay that they are now facing even longer payment cycles from distributors (Amazon pays net 30+ days) which forces them in to a difficult situation making it hard for them to stay afloat. There has never been a greater need to close the gap on payment cycles for these publishers, and FastPay is here to help you grow at a faster rate! Whether you are a publisher, developer or any agency that has payment terms of net30, net60, net90, or even net120, FastPay can help you get paid on day one.

Samsung Chromebook Series 5 Review
CREDIT: Samsung
Google aimed to upend the laptop industry with the introduction of ChromeOS, an operating system that basically removes everything but the Web browser. The first generation of what the company calls Chromebooks, basically laptops with ChromeOS, certainly buck many trends and offer new ideas for how we interact with computers, but is it enough to make the Chromebook a good buy?
Google ChromeOS is supposed to simplify the user experience by removing all the fluff and technical details we've grown accustomed to over recent decades and just allow the user to live online. You don't install programs; you just use Web apps. You don't save files to a hard drive; you store them in the cloud.
It requires a new way of thinking about computing, one that might be difficult to accept at first. Old habits die hard. The Chromebook is an excellent experiment in new methods of connecting, but it might be a little ahead of its time and too pricey to make many converts.
Here's a look at how the Samsung Chromebook Series 5 stands up to the competition.
The Samsung Chromebook Series 5 showcases Samsung's attention to solid design. The Chromebook features a 12-inch display with 1200 by 800 pixel resolution. It's certainly not mind-blowing, and the viewing angles seem a bit tight, but it's bright and clear.
The rest of the device looks completely unremarkable compared to most laptops. There are two USB ports, an SD card slot for memory expansion, a headphone jack and a SIM card slot for the 3G model. The design is all very clean and rounded, with no hard lines to speak of.
The keyboard is a refreshing sight. It's very minimalistic, owing to Google's requirements. ChromeOS's revolutionary paradigm (more on that later) doesn't require all the buttons we've become accustomed to, so there are fewer than normal — no function buttons, no caps lock, no numerical pad, etc. Instead, Google has included keys that are more important to a browsing experience, such as a key that immediately brings up a search field, dedicated forward and back keys for the browser (brilliant!) and the more common brightness and volume keys.
The trackpad, on the other hand, is a complete mess. Tap-to-click, which is a universal feature on all laptops, isn't automatically turned on. It can be found in the settings menu, but that seems like a silly and unnecessary step for such a standard feature. The trackpad itself feels inaccurate and doesn't always register touches and swipes the same way. There are no buttons. Instead, the entire trackpad can be depressed. It makes a satisfying clicking sound, but it doesn't always work, especially near the top of the trackpad. Overall, the trapckpad is easily the biggest weakness of the Chromebook Series 5 design.
Inside, the Chromebook is much more similar to netbooks than laptops. The Chromebook includes a dual-core Intel processor, 1.66GHz N570, that is on par with current netbooks. There is 2GB of RAM and only 16GB of storage, which is very low for a laptop-style mobile device (in fact, smartphones are consistently selling with more storage than that).
The battery life is quite impressive. It's officially rated for 8.5 hours of continuous use, but with more normal patterns of use — in other words, using it for smaller stretches of time — it's quite easy to go nearly two days before needing a charge. That's with lighter tasks such as email and document creation. If you play complex Flash games or use Flash-heavy sites too much, it can use up the battery in closer to 6 hours.
On the whole, the hardware of the Chromebook Series 5 feels very solid and serviceable, but definitely not groundbreaking. That's because all the magic is in the software.
Google ChromeOS is amazing because it really does cause users to rethink how they use computers, something long overdue considering how ponderous computer operating systems have become. ChromeOS flouts the idea of storing anything on the device itself and instead views the Chromebook as simply a conduit to the Internet, where all users' needs are met.
Think about it: What do you buy a netbook for? There's no optical disc drive, so all the content is downloaded and installed from the Internet. They're generally not powerful enough to play blockbuster games, but they are perfect for lightweight Flash and online games. Users may type up documents, but there are plenty of services for creating and storing documents online.
In essence, netbook users (and a large portion of laptop users, for that matter) are already living in the cloud. ChromeOS simply takes the idea a step further by focusing on Web apps for productivity and services and limiting storage on the device itself. There is a rudimentary file system, but it's very limited and clearly meant to be used sparingly.
Anyone who has used the Google Chrome browser will already know what the ChromeOS interface looks like. It's the same thing, except you never exit the browser. That's it.
In this way, ChromeOS is a huge breath of fresh air. It simplifies the computing process immensely. No worrying about menus and dialog boxes and long lists of settings. There are a few small things to tweak if you like, but everything else is even simpler than a Web browser. ChromeOS takes away all the hassle and background technicalities that frustrate computer users.
The vastly simplified system makes everything quicker too. Booting up takes around five seconds, but it's hardly ever necessary. Because of how ChromeOS works, closing the lid effectively shuts off the device, and upon opening it instantly picks up where you left off. It's quite surprising after becoming accustomed to a lifetime of computers and laptops that take minutes to boot up or even wake up from sleep mode. The lightweight operating system works wonders for extending battery life, too.
User experience
Sometimes oversimplifying can be just as confusing as too much complexity. The Chromebook Series 5 certainly takes some getting used to. Instead of thinking in programs and saved files, the user has to think primarily in websites and account passwords.
Google even manages to confuse the issue a little by creating an "app store" for users. At first glance it looks like a haven for app lovers because so much of it is free. Only later does it become apparent why. For the most part these aren't pieces of software; they're simply glorified bookmarks that take the user to a ChromeOS-optimized version of websites they can visit on any computer.
Here's the most confusing part: It's not really a problem … until it is.
There are Web apps that can do just about anything you need, and Google actually provides many of them — Gmail, Google Docs, Google Maps, etc. However, the Chromebook runs into a major roadblock when it can't find a Wi-Fi signal. Google has promised "offline" modes for many of the Chromebook apps, making it possible to continue working on a project even while away from the Internet and then upload the results when a connection is reestablished. The problem is that few Chromebook services — including the most important, Google Docs — don't have offline modes yet. Angry Birds is, unsurprisingly, one of the few apps that currently have offline functionality. So you won't be able to finish that document for work, but you can console yourself by blowing up some chartreuse swine.
It's true that there are Internet connections all around, especially if you buy the 3G version of the Chromebook Series 5. However, it's still not quite ubiquitous enough to be truly reliable on the go, and 3G networks just aren't fast enough for the average power user. If you plan to stay mostly on a home Wi-Fi network, it's fine, but it's much more risky to use the Chromebook as a traveling device, especially before offline modes become more reliable.
For all its amazing traits and innovative methods, the single biggest problem with the Samsung Chromebook Series 5 has to be the price. The Wi-Fi only version is $430 and the 3G version is $499 (and will still require a data plan). It's not exorbitant pricing, but it's very easy to find a decent (Windows) laptop that can do everything the Chromebook can do and more for the same price. And netbooks, which still do everything the Chromebook can do and more, are usually $300 or less.
The appeal of the Chromebook is a stripped down and simplified experience, but unless the price is similarly stripped down, consumers are much more likely to stick with what they know and choose a laptop or netbook with Windows.
The Samsung Chromebook Series 5 is a solid product with a lot of great qualities to recommend it. It's sleek, portable and makes the computing experience fast and simple. But it's still going to confuse many users who aren't comfortable living the in the cloud, and it will be a hard sell at the current price point. It's a wonderful adventure if you want something new and don't mind the price, but it's probably not the right choice for your next powerhouse device.

FedExForum was abuzz with playoff excitement on Wednesday night as the Miami Heat came to town. Both the Heat and Grizzlies had something to play for. The Heat were playing for the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference, and the Grizzlies were playing to keep right on the heels of the 8th seeded Suns in the West. The Heat led by 4 points at the half, but during the second half the Grizzlies took control. The signature play of the game was Courtney Lee's corner three as time expired to end the third quarter which came after a Miami Heat turnover. When Lee's shot fell, it started to feel like it was going to be a good night on Beale Street for the Grizzlies. Of course, that bucket only made the score tied at 80, but the momentum was clearly in the Grizzlies' favor.
What really won the game for the Grizzlies was the sensational defensive play of Tony Allen. He forced many turnovers, and had 3 steals of his own. His energy down the stretch is truly what propelled the Grizzlies to victory. Even though the final score was 107-102, defense is still what won this game for the Grizzlies. They got stops when they needed to and they hit shots when they needed to. To put it simply, the Grizzlies did what was necessary to win this ever so crucial game.
Coming to town next are the woeful Philadelphia 76ers. The Grizzlies should easily get that win along with the following game on the road against the Lakers. However, the last two games of the Grizzlies' season could potentially decide their season, which are at Phoenix against the Suns and at home against the Mavericks. Games at this time of year are crucial, and to get one tonight against the Heat is nothing short of huge for the Grizzlies. Hopefully this win gets them to play well the rest of the way and win their remaining 4 games.

BIM management, made easy
Multidimensional model management, often referred to as BIM, or building information models, are transforming the way project teams collaborate. But first, technical barriers to model management must be removed. Aconex simplifies BIM management, allowing multiple organizations to share, review, mark up and contribute to complex multidimensional models (3D, 4D, 5D or 6D) directly from a web browser. You'll get the full benefits of BIM collaboration, including a complete audit of all decisions, without the pain of specialized software.
The new world of collaborative BIM
Efficient model management
Distribute models in seconds across your project with no limits on model size. No special software required.
A complete information library
Everyone can view and markup a model, creating a single set of interconnected project data reflecting the combined expertise of every organization.
A record of every decision
Track every change. A full model history lets you see what decisions were made and by whom at any point in time.
Understand the context
On Aconex, all communications around a model are connected to that model, so you can get the full picture of why a particular decision was made.
Share BIM models for smarter processes at every stage
Design or feasibility
Starting with constructability reviews and cost estimates, multidimensional BIM models enhance the project team's knowledge and can have a big impact on cost efficiency, especially when there are no barriers to accessing the models with Aconex.
Building with BIM
Use of models to facilitate prefabrication of everything from windows, doors and MEP components to subsea drilling or mine face components is another way of reducing costs and staying on schedule.
Coordinating virtual construction
By simulating the planned sequence of construction or assembly, BIM can be helpful in identifying problems and preventing clashes of all kinds.
Operation and maintenance
Providing an asset owner with a complete model of the project can be a tremendous help in managing a facility or asset. With Aconex, access to everything from design and schematics to as-built and warranty information is just a click or tap away.
Powerful but simple BIM management
Instant access to multiple dimensions (3D, 4D and more)
No more waiting for lengthy downloads. Aconex streams what you need to see, fast.
Publish in minutes
Upload a model from your BIM tool of choice, like Revit, to Aconex in minutes. Boost productivity by up to 400%.
Your choice of format
Export from your BIM model to Aconex and simultaneously print multiple formats, like DWF, WFx, DGN, DXF or PDF. Save your settings to use later.
Connect directly with print shops
Send plans to the printer directly from Aconex, no special handling required.

First rides & tests
12 July 2011 16:12
Another good weekend racing in the bag, with two second places and a third. It's the second time we've visited the Snetterton 300 circuit this year and we're back again in September racing on the smaller '200' layout.
It's very hard to grind out a good lap time around this place. There's a real mix of ultra-fast, heart-in-the-mouth turns and tight, nadgery technical ones. With so many corners littering the track, you've got to get every single one right, or else you'll blow your lap. It's such a long way round now that if you muck it up, you've got to wait a long time before you can try again.
I reckon that along with Cadwell, it's one of the toughest places to race in the UK, from a physical point of view too. I'm not a massive fan of it, though, it's too stop/start for a 1000.
My BMW Park Lane S1000RR is developing nicely, the Ohlins suspension is dialled in, the Dunlop N-Tec slicks are amazing and we're making nice little improvements along the way.
I've now got proper Renthal handlebar grips, which make it feel really racy (no more road grips, for the first time in my racing career!) and a quick action throttle, which is as much of a help slowing down as it is accelerating.
Most significant is the addition of an STM slipper clutch, which helps the Beemer launch off the starts far smoother than before. The standard clutch was so bad at starts that I used to panic on the start line and jump the red lights occasionally.
It must be muscle memory, as I did it again on the last race of the weekend and got a 10 second penalty. We fitted a softer diaphragm spring to give it some extra slip into the corners too.
Thanks to Paul Cooper for coming all the way up from BMW Park Lane's base in Battersea, all the way to Snetterton on Friday afternoon fit it.
I had some great battles over the weekend, especially with the talented Byron Beckett. I felt a bit sorry for him as he was definitely faster than me in the corners and my S1000RR blasted his old R1 down the straights. Rob McNealy brilliantly won two MRO Powerbike races, with Peter Baker winning the other one (both on GSX-R1000s).
Dan Fowler won all three Superstock 1000 races on his R1 and BMW-mounted John Waghorn set the fastest lap of the weekend with a 1:55.7 (my best was a 1:57.3). My awning buddy, Lloyd Sutton-Foster also had a good weekend and scored a podium in the Rookie 600s - during the rest of his waking hours he was always texting...

Current TV's 'Joy Behar: Say Anything' featured a rousing discussion of the Supreme Court's Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) hearing on March 27.
Read Whole Story
Barney Frank has always been a lightening rod, not only for the right-wing but also within the LGBT community itself. He's spoken out forcefully for g...
Over the past three decades, HIV/AIDS has had a way of taunting us with progress and then reminding us of its immense devastation. Even in the early ...
There has been a lot of great discussion and debate on the blogs this week, from Dan Choi's discharge to coverage of the AIDS2010 conference in Vienna. Check out these other great posts from this week
The bitterness and vitriol filling LGBT attacks on the Democrats must come to an end, replaced by a respectful and actionable solutions-based agenda.
Where are the GLBT prophets who call us all to account? If it is true that denying marriage to gays is a moral deficiency, why haven't gay leaders framed it that way?
As disappointing as the Maine defeat was, the real disappointment actually resulted from the shrill reactionary tactics employed by many within the Marriage Equality movement.
Let it be known that the GLBT community is no longer interested in being pals with the powerful or having the famous tell us we are fabulous -- unless it leads to action.
Whatever church those people do go to, they are taught hate and fear, not the Christian love I grew up with. They both hate gays and fear them.
The real colorful dream of this country is not about a mythical Camelot but a real land of second-chances, a land of reinvention and fresh opportunity.
While the Obama administration blames their dallying on the press or the political situation, they should be reminded that that didn't stop Johnson.
The Democratically-controlled Congress talks a good game to get LGBT votes and money -- but they don't have much to show for LGBT loyalty.
I am stunned that Obama has so flagrantly forgotten, despite being a constitutional scholar, that equality is the first core founding principle of this country.
The historic Democratic National Convention is over but one question remains: what the hell happened to the gays?

When presentation and taste are both on the line this holiday season, let them eat cake.
There's nothing new about cake, but we never seem to tire of it. Whether two layers or four, frosted with buttercream or "iced" with a pour of silky ganache, with or without a flavored filling between the layers, we'll take cake any old way we can get it—especially at the holidays.
Here are some of our favorites—classic flavors that never get old no matter how many times we bake them.
Peppermint Layer Cake with White Chocolate Frosting
The flavor of Christmas candy canes makes this snowy white cake as delicious to eat as it looks.
The classic and much-loved Southern cake.
As beautiful as it is delicious, this cake is a dessert worthy of special occasions.
This vintage recipes creates a two-layer banana dessert.
Crushed peppermint candies top the frosting on this chocolate layer cake.
Maple Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting
Frosted and decorated with candies, this cake is moist and tender.

Weekly Focal Point - November 18
I have heard this bizarre little acronym starting to catch on around here. And for that I am glad. It is, if you haven't heard, my abbreviated and colloquial way of referring to what Jesus was getting at when he addressed his would-be disciples. It is my attempt of encapsulating the challenge in Christ's refrain: "Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it" (Mt.10:39; 16:25; Mk.8:35; Lk.9:24; et al.). Jesus clearly calls us to exchange our priorities and goals for God's. He commands us to "seek first his kingdom and his righteousness" allowing our agenda to take a backseat (Mt.6:33). We must then, with all true followers of Christ, be quick to say, "Any thing, any place, any time" - ATAPAT! We must do any thing he says, go any place he sends, and begin any time he asks. May the Holy Spirit enable us to live that ATAPAT lifestyle for the honor of Christ and the glory of God.
