R1 Go Kart Passes a Cop
COOL INFO: Kart was bought for $5,000 plus shipping. It has had several
owners. Previous owner from Georgia owned kart for literally two weeks then
re-listed on eBay citing it was the most ridiculous thing he'd ever driven
and there weren't many places to use it. Originally this kart had 6 wheels
(google images R1 go kart). It was drag raced and crashed due to the front
wheels coming off the ground. One owner told the story of trying to get
the major tire manufacturers to produce a tire that would allow the kart to
attempt to go over 200mph and not blow up (find video below in description
of tire blowing up with speedo reading 181mph). 150mph or higher is
reached in fourth gear, there are six gears :). Kart has been sold and the
new owner is putting paddle shifters and other goodies on it. The local
police have had two driver suspects. Both suspects have been
harassed/threatened by police. They think they know who the driver was,
they're wrong. He still remains a mystery.
You DO NOT have my permission to re-upload my "R1 Go Kart Passes A Cop"
without my written permission. I have already filed copyright infringement
claims against 5 channels for re-uploading my video for financial gain.
This is a one of a kind custom frame built specifically for this engine.
One of the previous owners told me the gentlemen that bought it from him
had it up to 170-181mph. This kart is wicked.
WATCH TILL THE END, A POLICE CAR PASSES IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION!! If your
impatient to watch 10 minutes of video, skip to 7:50 and watch till the end
for the best part.
2005 Yamaha R1 Sport Bike engine in a Beisse Shifter Kart. Around 180 HP,
weighs about 220lbs. Previous owner had Kart up to 181 mph before a tire
blew out. Using GoPro Hero High Def camera with adhesive mount.
NOTE: The rear tires are worn out so the driver didn't do anything to
crazy. The ending was edited out to protect the driver.
Location: Northern Michigan
Here are a couple videos of the previous owner; where the speedo read
181mph and spun out.

HoopsHype Miami Heat + Trade rumors
But while sources say as many as seven teams registered interest, including Miami and Brooklyn, no offers intrigued Charlotte and several teams that called did not make trade proposals. ESPN.com
Joseph Goodman: Spoelstra on Riley finding Heat some help: "I haven't talked to him today about that, so my focus is on tonight. I'll be in contact w/them." Twitter @JoeGoodmanJr
Steve Kyler: Have also heard Pelicans and HEAT are sniffing around, but may be more of a due diligence process than serious desire to trade. Twitter @stevekylerNBA
Norris Cole for Dion Waiters. Beneficial for both teams. Good backup at shooting guard for the Heat, plus more and consistent minutes for Shabazz Napier. Would you go for it if you were to decide for Miami? How about if for Cavs? Is this possible? -- Frances, Philippines. A: While I don't usually address rumors (and I'm not even sure this is a rumor), I've been asked about the permutation often enough that I might as well bite. But I preface it with this: There has been absolutely no known discussion, nor even word of potential interest by either of the sides. South Florida Sun-Sentinel
When it comes to guards the Heat might move, I think it would be more likely to be Cole, considering the Heat opted not to extend him at the Oct. 31 deadline. If the Heat re-sign him in the offseason (unless he takes the one-year qualifying offer as a restricted free agent), it would carry his money past the 2016 offseason, when the Heat are trying to mass their cap space for free agency. Chalmers, by contrast, has a contract that ends just before the 2016 offseason. Advantage Mario. Ultimately, moving either could come down to the confidence that Shabazz Napier instills as the point guard of the future (his money goes beyond the 2016 offseason, but at the affordable rookie scale). South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Adrian Wojnarowski: As @Jerry Zgoda 1st reported, Minny's Luc Mbah a Moute, Alexey Shved and Heat '15 1st-rounder go to 76ers for Thad Young. Deal done Saturday. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
This isn't the first time the Lakers have expressed interest in the 6-foot-10, 235-pound small forward. The Lakers attempted to trade for Beasley twice during the 2011-12 season, when he played for the Timberwolves, but both deals fell through, the second just minutes before the trade deadline expired. ESPN.com
But if Cleveland is willing to include a second future No. 1 pick (Cleveland owns the rights to Miami's first rounder as well as Memphis' in 2015), it might be enough to trump Chicago's offer. The Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics also remain in contention for Love, according to the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity. SheridanHoops
"The whole process, it was strange. Nothing really happened the way we expected it to, and Lu being the professional that he was, he made the best out of every possible situation that he was put in. He didn't want to rush through the process. He wanted to hear everything out and kind of look at every option, and look at the pros and cons of each option, and move forward from there. The Bulls' offer when he was traded to Cleveland, it was a take-it-or-leave-it offer. In this situation, we still had options. Luol had choices to make. He made them. He decided this, and at the end of the day, while it's $10 million, there's no state income tax. So maybe you gain about a million dollars in that. But at the same time, it gives him options. He's a free agent at the end of this year, and it gives him the opportunity to play out a year healthy, to play out a year in a situation where he can be highlighted," agent Ron Shade told CSNChicago.com. "So what's in the past is in the past. The Bulls' offer is the Bulls' offer. Whether it's good, bad or indifferent, at that time, we didn't feel it was the right offer to accept for Lu and right now he's happy with the decisions that he's made, and he knows it's going to be great to help him further his career." NBCSports.com
Chris Haynes: One thing has become apparent in Las Vegas: Miami never considered trading PG Norris Cole and that remains their stance, league sources say. Twitter @ChrisBHaynes
Ira Winderman: Should Chalmers return, wouldn't be surprised if Heat try to turn Cole's $2M salary into something else (perhaps even cap space). Twitter @IraHeatBeat
Gasol has not informed the Lakers of his plan. But the Lakers are mindful that Gasol has stated he wants to play for a championship caliber team and has entertained a vast amount of interest from Miami, San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Chicago and New York. It is not currently clear which scenarios the Lakers would entertain a sign-and-trade with Gasol, who made $19.3 million last season. But in general terms, the Lakers want to ensure they receive a quality player in return, if not more, and that their contract does not compromise their financial flexibility both in length and size of the contract. Los Angeles Daily News
Brian Windhorst: When Pelicans get Gee, they can complete deal for Asik and the Rockets next big piece to clear space for Chris Bosh. Twitter @WindhorstESPN

A process for finally finishing a surface of a bronze sculpture that is then waxed with at least a single wax coating. In a practice of the invention, to a bronze surface that has been polished and preliminarily buffed, a low pressure grit material flow is directed against a section of the bronze surface as a final surface texturing step and, where a surface or surfaces adjacent to the section is to be painted, patinaed, or is to receive a like surface finish, a selected plastic material is used to coat the section of the bronze surface, which material is applied as a liquid and dries to a flexible surface that adheres to so as to essentially render the bronze surface imperious to contamination with paint, water, or the like. After application of paint, patina, or the like, the plastic material coating is stripped away by a painter/operator using a tool or tools, such as a pair of tweezers, to remove the coating. Whereafter the sculpture surface is waxed.
1. A process for finishing bronze sculptures where, to a bronze casting surface that has been polished to remove unwanted material, and after said bronze casting surface has been initially buffed, said process consists of;
(a) directing, to a portion of said bronze casting surface that is to be polished only, a flow of an abrasive material contained in a dry flow of air under a pressure of from 90 to 110 psi through a nozzle end that is maintained at a distance of from 50 to 100 millimeters above a portion of said bronze casting surface and wherein said nozzle directs a spray pattern onto said portion of said bronze casting surface that is of a diameter of from 75 to 100 millimeters, and where said abrasive material has a grain size of 25 to 50 microns;
(b) applying a liquid flexible plastic coating composition to the portion of said bronze casting surface that has been polished, and which is adjacent to an uncoated bronze casting surface which is to be painted or patinaed after said liquid flexible plastic coating composition has dried to form a flexible plastic coating;
(c) painting or patinaeing the uncoated bronze casting surface;
(d) after the paint or patinae has dried, removing said flexible plastic coating by an operator using a tool or tools to pull off said flexible plastic coating; and
(e) applying at least one coating of a sealant material over the entire bronze casting surface.
2. A process as recited in claim 1, wherein the flexible plastic coating composition is applied in a liquid state and dries to a water impervious flexible coating; and the sealant material is a wax.
3. A process as recited in claim 2, wherein the liquid flexible plastic coating composition is coated over the bronze polished surface to a thickness of from 0.2 to 0.5 millimeters and is allowed to dry in air to a flexible water impervious flexible plastic coating.
4. A process as recited in claim 1, wherein a pair of tweezers are used to peel the flexible plastic coating, in stripes, off of the polished bronze surface.
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to processes for finishing bronze sculptures to provide an attractive and protective finish to the bronze surface that is resistive to discoloration with aging.
2. Prior Art
Sculptures as works of art are often first formed in clay, or other material, wherearound a mold is formed to receive hot wax poured therein to form a wax casting. The wax casting is then used in a lost wax casting procedure to form a bronze casting having the shape of the original clay. This procedure has, of course, been long known, and such castings are found even in very early civilizations. In fact, in many respects such earlier bronze castings are not much different from those as are produced today. Nor, in fact, are the finishes and the finishing processes as are currently practiced very different from such earlier procedures. Writings from as early as the fifteenth century that describe processes for casting of bronze sculpture, polishing and buffing thereof, and application of finishes, such as patinas, and final waxing, are similar to processes as are practiced today. Where machines and their use, such as power grinders, sand blasters, and the like, have made the performance of steps in such polishing of a bronze surface to smooth it, and buffing of the smooth surface, much easier, the steps themselves and purposes of each are essentially the same. Also, such processes have further included an application of a coating or coatings of wax to the buffed surface to preserve that finish.
Both ancient and modern bronze polishing and buffing procedures have recognized the advisability of moisture and contaminant removal from the bronze surface before application of a final wax coating thereto to avoid discoloration of the metal surface over time. Accordingly, a work, during polishing and buffing, has been subjected to heating as in an oven, application of a flame thereto, as with a propane torch, or the like, to drive off water. Also, where a patina has been applied, the patina surface has often received an application of a flame directed thereagainst as a final step before waxing. Such heating, while effective to remove water and even burn off oils as have been present on the bronze surface, have often not fully removed such water and surface contaminants that, over time, have reacted with moisture and pollutants in the air to discolor the metal surface. The present invention, prior to application of a wax coating to seal and preserve the bronze finish, provides for more completely removing water as has collected in the pores of the metal surface and contaminants, such as skin oils on the metal surface. To effect this cleaning the invention performs the step of directing a broad stream of a dry grit material, such as an aluminum oxide fine grain sand, under low pressure, against the metal surface, thereby thoroughly dewatering and cleaning that surface, and providing also a final surface texturing. Further, as distinguished from earlier procedures, the invention provides for applying, as with a brush, a flexible plastic material, or the like, onto the sand blasted surface of the bronze to protect it while adjacent surfaces are being finished, as by painting, patinaing, or the like. The preferred applied coating is a flexible plastic material that is applied in a liquid state and, when dry, provides a flexible surface that will not be affected by a spraying of the adjacent areas with paint, water, or other liquid, and is resistive to an application of heat, even a flame as used in an application of a patina. The selected plastic coating can be removed as by pulling it in long and short strips off from the sand blasted surface, without contaminating it. Thereafter, as a final step, the work is waxed, sealing and protecting the surface that, when the work is maintained in a protected environment, will exhibit a consistent shine or luster over an extended period of time in years with little or no care required except for an occasional application of an appropriate wax to the sculpture surface.
It is a principal object of the present invention in a process for finishing a bronze sculpture to provide as final steps in the buffing of the bronze sculpture surface for directing a stream of a fine grit material over a section of the surface as a final buffing step to provide surface texturing, and to dewater and remove oils therefrom, prior to application of a wax coating to the surface to seal it.
Another object of the present invention is to provide for directing a broad stream of fine grit material, such as a fine grain aluminum oxide, at low pressure, against the bronze surface over a sufficient period of time to provide surface texturing, dewatering, and for removal of oils therefrom.
Another object of the present invention is to provide for coating areas of the sculpture surface as have been sand blasted to protect them from contamination from finishing, as by painting surfaces adjacent thereto, with a coating of a plastic material that is applied in a liquid state and will dry to a flexible impervious coating to protect the sand blasted surface from contamination, that is easily stripped away using a tool or tools to receive a wax coating.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide for a selection of a plastic material that is applied in a liquid state to any appropriate thickness that, when dry, forms a flexible coating that is impervious to liquids and seals the surface it is applied to against contamination as adjacent surfaces are finished, and that can easily be removed as by peeling it in strips off from the surface by an operator using a tool or tools.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide the process steps of the invention that are final buffing steps conducted prior to application of a wax coating to the bronze surface to preserve and protect the surface from reactions as would discolor it over time.
The invention is in steps of a process for polishing and buffing a surface of a bronze casting in finishing that casting to a finished bronze sculpture whereover wax or other sealant is applied. In the finishing process, polishing provides for a removal of unwanted materials from the surface of a bronze casting, with buffing to finish that surface to a surface to receive an application of a finish wax or other sealant applied thereover to seal and protect the surface. The invention adds, to the buffing process, the step of applying a flow of a grit material at low pressure and in a broad stream to the bronze surface to provide a final surface texturing and to dewater and clean off contaminants, such as skin oil, therefrom. The preferred grit material used in this step is a dry fine grain aluminum oxide that is applied to the surface as needed, until a desired surface texturing is obtained.
Where a sand blasted section or sections of the bronze surface only are to be waxed or have other sealant applied thereto as a finished surface, and where, prior to that waxing, adjacent areas thereto are to be painted, patinaed or have other surfaces applied thereto, as a further step of the invention, the sand blasted surface or surfaces are protected by an application of a surface coating that is flexible and provides an impervious seal to the surface over which it is applied. The preferred coating material seals but is easily removed by an operator, using a tool or tools, to pull the dried material off of the sand blasted area. The surface coating thereby protects the bronze surface from contamination and the preferred selected coating material will not itself contaminate the bronze surface that remains ready to receive a coating or coatings of wax or other sealing agent applied thereto. One such coating material that is suitable for providing such a protective surface coating is a plastic material that is applied in a liquid state and dries to a flexible impervious coating is known as PLASTI DIP�, manufactured by PDI Inc. of Circle Pines, Minn. Though, it should be understood, other like coating materials having similar characteristics and properties could be so used within the scope of this disclosure.
After cleaning the coating material off from the sand blasted portions of the sculpture, the painted and sand blasted surfaces are preferably waxed by an application of one or more coats of a selected wax that is suitable for use on bronze sculptures and that wax can be polished as desired. The wax or other appropriate sealant coating, when the work is maintained out of the elements, provides for protecting the bronze surface from the effects of moisture and pollutants in the air. Bronze surfaces, prepared as described above, when so protected by a wax or other sealant coating, will maintain their appearance without streaking or staining over a long period of time in years.
In that drawings that represent the best mode presently contemplated for carrying out the invention:
FIG. 1 is a photograph showing an elevation perspective view taken from the front and left side of a sculpture of a male runner that was finished utilizing the process of the invention;
FIG. 2 shows an enlarged view of a section of the surface of the sculpture taken within the line 2--2 of FIG. 1, showing lines of separation between the surface of the runner's arm, shoulder and top;
FIG. 2A shows an enlarged view of the section of FIG. 2 receiving a flow of a fine grit material under pressure directed thereagainst;
FIG. 2B shows the runners arm portion of FIG. 2A receiving a coating of a liquid material applied with a brush up to the lines of separation with the runner's top;
FIG. 2C is an enlarged cross section taken within the line 2C--2C of FIG. 2B illustrating with arrows A the thickness, after drying, of the coating material identified as a plastic;
FIG. 2D shows the runner's top of FIG. 2A being spray painted, showing some of the sprayed paint overspraying onto the plastic coated arm portion;
FIG. 2E shows an operator's hand holding tweezers and using them to remove strips of the plastic coating of FIG. D; and
FIG. 3 shows the section of FIG. 2, processed as shown in FIGS. 2A through 2E, receiving a coating of wax applied thereover utilizing a cloth that is maintained in the operator's hand.
FIG. 1 shows a sculpture of a male runner 10 mounted on a base 11, with the runner shown as having painted running shorts 12 and top 13, and showing him with painted shoes 14. The runners arms, legs, neck and head area are shown as being polished. The invention, it should be understood, is in steps that are performed in buffing the bronze surfaces of the arms, legs, neck and head areas and for protecting these surfaces during application of a surface coating, such as paint, patina, or the like, to areas of the sculpture surface, shown in FIG. 1 as the painted shorts 12, top 13 and shoes 14.
FIG. 2 is enlarged section of the left shoulder area of the runner 10, showing a portion of a left strap 15 of the top 13 and the runner's polished shoulder 16, and showing a junction therebetween as a line 17 demarkation or of separation. The section of FIG. 2, that is shown in FIGS. 2A through 2E, is provided for describing the performance of the steps of the invention. FIG. 3 shows the runner left shoulder area receiving an application of a layer of wax applied thereto by contact and rubbing with a cloth 28 that, it should be understood, is held in a artist/operator's hand 18.
FIG. 2 shows a section of the bronze surface after it has been polished and initially buffed, and prior to an application of a final surface finish that, as shown in FIG. 1, is a surface painted onto the top 13 strap 15. It should be understood that, prior to the performance of the finishing steps of the invention, the bronze, after casting, will have been subjected to a polishing where surface blemishes are removed and the surface is initially smoothed. Such steps involve grinding, as with a sanding disks ranging from course to fine. Such sanding disks are turned in an angled grinder, drill, or the like, and the piece is subjected to wire brushing and polishing utilizing polishing disks that range from course to fine, and sand basting with an appropriate grit of material that is directed under high pressure against the bronze surface. These steps are well known and have been long used. The buffed bronze surface is then ready for the performance of the step of the invention of applying to the surface a low pressure sand blasting flow that has a wide pattern directed particularly to the areas of the bronze that are to be polished, set out below.
FIG. 2A shows the section of FIG. 2 receiving a wide spray pattern 21 of grit material passed from a nozzle end 20 of a wand 19 that, it should be understood, is connected to an air line and to a grit material feed line, not shown, with the nozzle end 20 pointing at and spaced an appropriate distance, as set out below, to direct the grit material against the bronze surface. The pattern is preferably under a pressure of from ninety (90) to one hundred ten (110) psi. A preferred grit material is an aluminum oxide that has a grain size of, approximately, from twenty five (25) to fifty (50) microns selected to provide a final surface finishing. In this final finishing, the bronze surface is both dried of surface water and any oil, including oils as are present on a operator's skin, are removed. To perform this sand blasting step nozzle 20 is held a distance of approximately fifty (50) to one hundred (100) millimeters away from the bronze surface, and has an opening to pass, when maintained at these preferred distances from the bronze surface, a flow therethrough that will have a diameter of approximately seventy five (75) to one hundred (100) millimeters where it strikes the bronze surface. In practice, as determined by the artist/operator, this step is practiced for a period of time as the artist/operator determines to complete the final surface finishing.
FIG. 2B shows the runners arm 16, that has been finally finished as described above with respect to FIG. 2A, receiving a coating 23 applied thereto by a brush 22 held in the artist/operator's hand 18. The coating 23 is being applied to the arm 16 surface, up to the line 17 between the top strap 15 and arm 16, and over the shoulder area beyond the top strap to cover the areas that do not receive paint, as shown in FIG. 2D. The coating 23 is preferably one that can be applied in a liquid form to dry into a resilient coating that seals the area whereover it is applied against contamination, particularly contamination by water. One such coating material as has been used successfully for this application and is preferred, is a plastic material known as Plasti Dip�, manufactured by PDI, Inc. of Circle Pines, Minn. This material can be applied by brushing it on and will dry to the desired flexible coating in approximately four (4) hours. Coating 23 is shown as being a plastic material in the cross section of FIG. 2C. As shown by the spacing distance between pointed ends of arrows A, the coating has a thickness that, in practice is preferably from 0.2 to 0.5 millimeters. The preferred coating material will not introduce contaminants such as water, oil, or other contaminants to the bronze surface either when it is applies in a liquid state or after drying. Once dried, the covered areas can be handled by the artist/operator, during spray painting, as set out below. Removal of the coating 23 is set out and described hereinbelow with respect to a discussion of FIG. 2E.
FIG. 2D shows a spray gun nozzle end 24 with a spray 25 of paint emitted therefrom that is directed onto the top strap 15, with an overspray shown striking over the line 17 and beyond onto the coating 23 covering arm 16. The coating 23 protects the arm 16 surface and prohibits a penetration of the paint spray under the coating along the line 17. Also, the coating 23 closely adheres to the arm surface as an impervious barrier protect against a water spray or even an immersion in water for a short period of time, as could be involved in a practice of a patina procedure.
FIG. 2E shows the artist/operator's hand 18 holding a pair of tweezers 26 that are shown gripping, between tweezer ends 27a and 27b, a section of the coating 23 to pull it off from arm 16. Additionally, another tool, such as a knife, or the like, can be used to pry up a coating section for gripping between the tweezer ends. It being understood that the coating 23 is removed using tools without the artist/operator contacting the surface with their hands. With the removal of all of the coating 23 and the complete drying of the painted surfaces, on the bottom, top and shoes of FIG. 1, a wax finish is applied to the bronze 10 surface utilizing, as shown in FIG. 3, a wax impregnated cloth 28, or the like, held in the artist/operator's hand 18.
In practice, a bronze sculpture 10 whose surface has been subjected to a final surface finishing, as set out above, and with that surface protected with a flexible plastic coating, receives an application of a surface coating, such as paint, to adjacent surfaces. After waxing, as long as the sculpture is maintained in a protected environment, the bronze surface, with only an occasional application of additional wax, will not stain or streak over an extensive period of time in years.
While a preferred form of my invention in a process for finishing bronze sculptures has been shown and described herein it should be understood that the disclosure is made for example only and that variations, changes and modifications can be made to the described procedures within the scope of this disclosure without departing from the subject matter coming within the scope of the following claims, and a reasonable equivalency thereof, which claims I regard as my invention.

Publisher's Description
Moses: A Man of Selfless Dedication
Was he the sleek-and-trim, funloving animated man in The Prince of Egypt or the handsome, strong-hearted, superstar played by Charlton Heston in The Ten Commandments?
The most likely answer is "neither." The Bible gives a much more accurate picture of the Moses God used in such remarkable ways, Charles Swindoll paints a portrait of the biblical Moses in this fascinating look into the heart and mind of Moses: A Man of Selfless Dedication.
Swindoll gives us straight facts based squarely on the truth revealed in God's Word. He also fills in the fine-line details of Moses' life with emotion and feeling, because Moses, like all of us, was a human being with faults and frailties. And finally, Swindoll helps us apply the lessons of Moses' life to our own daily dilemmas.
When you face your personal Red Sea test, will you be prepared? Your decision to go forward in life instead of retreating will be bolstered by your having studied the real Moses of the Bibleâ·the Moses who tried to decline his assignment from God; the Moses who dazzled Pharaoh; the Moses who received the Ten Commandments; the Moses who was sometimes disobedient and weak; the Moses who was the greatest leader of God's people in all of history; the Moses of faith and selfless dedication to his God.
Author Bio

A pastor at heart, Chuck has served as senior pastor to congregations in Texas, Massachusetts, and California.

I stayed with a friend who was travelling interstate. There was more than enough room for both of us. We had a kitchen(ette), comfy bed, then some sitting around near the window. Actually, it's quite big!
We didn't spend a great deal in the hotel, but it's location was superb and meant The Rocks, Darling Harbour and Pitt St Mall were all a very close walk.
I also feel the hotel would be a great place for business travellers to stay.

With 'Launch,' Chapel Hill weighing in on innovation
- Lauren K. Ohnesorge
- Staff Writer- Triangle Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
CHAPEL HILL – Some movers and shakers in Chapel Hill are on a mission to get the town the credit they think it deserves for innovation.
A project called Launch Chapel Hill, set to officially kick off in March, could attach the term "entrepreneurship" to the city permanently. That's the hope of the four entities teaming up for the endeavor: the town of Chapel Hill, the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership, Orange County and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
"Nothing like this has been done before," notes Ted Zoller, director for the Center for Entrepreneurship Studies at UNC.
At least not in Chapel Hill.
But why doesn't Chapel Hill already get innovation credit? Innovation indisputably happens, an example being UNC spinoff Liquidia, which won a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant and a big deal with GlaxoSmithKline.
While Chapel Hill has stiff nearby competition in Raleigh, Durham and Research Triangle Park, the Orange County town has innovation moxie in its midst: The Center for Entrepreneurial studies contributes to the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School being ranked No. 8 for entrepreneurship, according to Bloomberg Businessweek.
So why is it perceived as lagging behind other Triangle clusters in terms of reputation for innovation?
Bobby Funk, assistant director for the Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership, says part of reason is cost – Chapel Hill's is generally more expensive when it comes to office space.
When it comes to office space, Chapel Hill comes up short in several regards, says Lee Storrow, a member of the Chapel Hill Town Council.
"If you look at Durham or even the park, just the amount of space they have looks different than Chapel Hill," he explains. "Durham has beautiful historic tobacco warehouses downtown and Research Triangle Park has much more physical room to grow. That's a limitation we've had before in Chapel Hill."
Lauren Ohnesorge covers information technology and entrepreneurship.

"The Voice" really seems to have lost the plot. I thought it was supposed to be about the "great", rather than the "nearly-great", as in shows like "X-Factor". Yet on Sat 25th, one of the best singers (in my opinion, albeit), Liam Tamne, gets booted out. So, as with many other talent shows, this show now seems focussed on the potential rather than the actual.
There is also a question as to whether this is really a competition between the vocalists or the mentors or some mix of the two! If truly between the vocalists, then in the Battles, the two battling vocalist's mentor should stand aside and the other three mentors should make the decision who goes through - with three voters, no problem with getting a majority verdict.
With regard to the steals, the format of the steals being made as the Battles proceed seems unfairly biased against those who appear late in the running order. Surely better to keep all the Battle losers to the end and then let the Mentors choose who to steal, in the process hopefully saving the better voices who would otherwise be lost.
It seems to me that the show format has too many flaws in it for it to be a real success.

Mike Kostka has Leafs fans wondering, "Hey, who's this Mike Kostka guy?"
Dec 27, 2012, 12:49 PM EST
AHL fans will already know the name Mike Kostka.
Soon NHL fans might, too.
Kostka, a 27-year-old defenseman, is creating a good deal of buzz in hockey's most buzzing market, Toronto. His 28 points are second on the Marlies and second behind Justin Schultz among all the league's d-men.
"He has been impressive," Leafs president and general manager Brian Burke told TSN.ca via e-mail. "High hockey IQ, great patience with the puck, can really thread passes on the power play."
Kostka's hockey journey has been a long one. The Marlies are his fifth AHL stop following four seasons at UMass-Amherst. He was never drafted.
Last year, he helped Norfolk win the Calder Cup, after which the Leafs signed him to a one-year deal that's paying him $250,000 to play in the minors. That's more than most AHLers earn and evidence of the organization's deep pockets.
If the NHL has a season, cracking the Leafs' line-up would be a realistic goal for Kostka.
"He's a guy firmly on our roster that if the NHL ever gets going again here I would hope that he gets at least a look," Marlies coach Dallas Eakins said recently. "Let's get him into a game or two and see what he can do at the NHL level."

In a more positive view, it's nice that C# can be effectively used as a "basic programming language", i.e. without any former programming experience. That it caters to such widely different crowds just shows how well designed it is.
I'm more annoyed that they called C# a basic programming language.

A federal jury in New Orleans awarded $451,000 in damages to a post-Katrina bridge repair worker in a sexual harassment lawsuit. The jury found that a supervisor committed same-sex harassment of a member of his crew and that the general contractor failed to exercise reasonable care to prevent and promptly correct sexually harassing behavior.
The United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) filed suit on behalf of the worker, alleging his site superintendent "flashed" him and routinely taunted him about seeming feminine and homosexual. The EEOC brought claims against Boh Bros. Construction Co. under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, alleging that it discriminated against the worker because of his gender by subjecting him to sexual harassment and/or a sexually hostile work environment. The EEOC also alleged that after the worker complained about his supervisor's harassment, he was sent home for three days without pay, then transferred to another work site with a longer commute and less pay. His employment was ultimately terminated.
At trial, the EEOC's case partly focused on the fact that Boh Bros. had no explicit written policy in its employee manual regarding who to call to report harassment, had no procedure for dealing with harassment complaints, and had nothing in writing regarding the worker's complaint. Although Boh Bros. disputed those allegations, the jury agreed with the EEOC.
At the end of the three-day trial, the jurors agreed that the worker suffered harassment, but not retaliation. The jury awarded the worker only $1,000 in damages for back pay and benefits, but another $200,000 for emotional pain and suffering and another $250,000 for punitive damages. The Court will soon address what type of injunctive relief, if any, should be imposed on Boh Bros., as well as the amount of the EEOC's attorneys' fees it will have to pay.
Boh Bros. is expected to appeal these findings. But in light of this decision, all construction companies would be well served to review their sexual harassment policies and procedures. Procedures for reporting harassment should be well-documented and communicated to all employees. In addition, supervisors should understand the policies, ensure that any investigations are well-documented, and make sure the results of those investigations are communicated to the complaining employee.
If you have questions about this case or about your company's policies and procedures, please contact the authors of this alert, or any of the members of Baker Donelson's Construction Group.

As the controversy continues to build over claims by legendary reporter Bob Woodward that he was threatened by a senior White House official, Lanny Davis, a longtime close adviser to President Bill Clinton said he has received similar threats for columns he had written.
With many in the media taking on the role of "palace guards" in trying to discredit Woodward, as ironic as that is, Davis told WMAL that his editor at the Washington Times, John Solomon, "received a phone call from a senior Obama White House official who didn't like some of my columns, even though I'm a supporter of Obama. I couldn't imagine why this call was made."
Davis says the Obama aide told Solomon, "that if he continued to run my columns, he would lose, or his reporters would lose their White House credentials."
Woodward received an email from a White House official, who has now been identified as Gene Sperling, the director of the White House Economic Council, in response to a heated telephone conversation: "I apologize for raising my voice in our conversation today. You're focusing on a few specific trees that give a very wrong impression of the forest. But perhaps we will just not see eye to eye here… I think you will regret staking out that claim."
Davis said of Woodward's claim, as reported by WMAL: "Firstly, you don't threaten anyone. Secondly, you don't threaten Bob Woodward. He's one of the best reporters ever. He's factual. You can disagree with facts that he reports, but he's factual. Don't mess with him about his facts. You can mess with him about the interpretation of his facts, but this is not a reporter you tangle with."

Today is the busiest shipping day of the year, as people across the country get their shipping of gifts, packages, and cards done before the holidays finally arrive. FedEx FDX expects to process around 22.6 million packages today. That is up from the last year, when 22 million packages shipped on Dec. 16. Just seven years ago, the busiest day of the year saw only 11.5 million packages shipped. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve, the shipping company expects to move 290 million packages, an 8.8% jump over last year. The United States Postal Service is also seeing a jump in volume this year. USPS expects to carry 640 million pieces of mail today, up from 607 million on the busiest day in 2013.
