NC Man Scams Two Insurance Companies to Receive Benefits
Posted on Aug 02, 2017
A Raleigh man filed more than $150,000 in workers' compensation claims to two insurance companies. The News and Observer claimed Gregory Pettiford, 48, filed these claims based on policies by fabricated employers.
Gerald Stevens, an N.C. investigator, said Pettiford was charged with false pretense, falsely obtaining property, and two accounts of misrepresentation. Pettiford was charged with four felonies.
"According to the warrants," The News and Observer claimed, "Pettiford got $123,339 from Continental Insurance Co. by 'obtaining a workers' compensation insurance policy for an organization which does not exist.' The money came 'in benefits and/or [a] settlement agreement.'"
Pettiford also filed false claims with Hartford Insurance Co., and he obtained $33,971 in temporary disability benefits under a fake policy provided by a fake company.
Pettiford is currently being held on a $250,000 bail.

Top 5 Sights of Gasparilla 2018
- 5:31 am Sunday, January 28th, 2018 by Nicole - Street Team
Just like the rest of Tampa Bay, Gasparilla is part of 97x's year. We invaded Downtown Tampa and hit a pirate overload we just had to show you our highlights:
1. PIRATE PUPPY: Did you expect anything less to be the number one? LOOK AT THIS DOG. His name is Bruce and Bruce's owner was just casually pulling him in the wagon. If this is goals I don't know what is.
2. Real parrots: I hope you're not surprised animals are our top two- I mean, this is 97x… If you have ever been to Gaspy you've [More]
Okeechobee Day 3 -The Lumineers, Kings of Leon, Bleachers, and more!
- 6:20 pm Monday, March 6th, 2017 by Nicole - Street Team
Bleachers never disappoints. If you ever get a chance to check them out- DO IT! They have amazing energy on stage and btw- they have a sax player… You want to see them now don't you? We lucked out at Okeechobee because Jack Antonoff, the lead singer, said that was the last show where they're playing a set list off their album Strange Desire before they release their new album!! When he said that you can imagine how much I embarrassed myself from my jumping around and screaming
In between sets we chatted with some listeners and found some awesome artists in action! To be honest, the people [More]
Okeechobee Day 2- Chobeewobee Village and Aquachobee!
- 11:36 am Sunday, March 5th, 2017 by Nicole - Street Team
Day 2 of Okeechobee Fest was all about exploring! When we first entered the portal, we went straight to the stages to check out the bands in The Grove. This time, we decided to walk past that and we discovered a portal into two whole new worlds.
Okeechobee Day 2- Chobewobee Village and Aquachobee!
- 8:52 am Sunday, March 5th, 2017 by Nicole - Street Team
Okeechobee Day 1 – Young The Giant, Lewis Del Mar, and more!
- 11:54 am Saturday, March 4th, 2017 by Evander
So ya girl (Nicole from the street team) has never camped before so you can imagine how much we looked like noobs while we were setting up our tent when we got to Okee… BUT we got the tent up and grabbed our fanny packs (of course) and set off into the portal!
We were greeted with palm trees and large geometric shapes, because I mean why not? Some of the signs that people hold up are hilarious:
The first band we checked out was NBT 16′ artist, Lewis Del Mar! First of all we need to touch on the fact that they [More]
Calling all Bonnaroovians!
- 2:15 pm Tuesday, January 17th, 2017 by Nicole - Street Team
It's that time of the year again where the farm is calling! Bonnaroo 2017 is a go and 97x wants to send you there! Now I'm not sure if you're familiar with this little thing called Bonnaroo… It's only a festival that you can immerse yourself in the 150 music acts and arts for four days straight while camping out with 80,000 of the best people on a 700 acre farm. No big deal.
This year's line up was no disappointment. With a mix of music genres, art, and even comedy, it makes for the perfect festival that has [More]

97X NBT artist, The Head and the Heart, Claim first #1 Charted Album
- 3:08 pm Wednesday, September 21st, 2016 by Nicole - Street Team
Now I'm not going to lie…The Head and the Heart was one of those bands that I had heard of and had been meaning to listen to, but never gotten around to. However, I've changed my ways because they just took the cake by reaching their first no.1 on the Top Rock/Alternative Album charts with 'Signs of Light'! Clearly I've been sleeping on them. Have no fear, I am now woke and realize my mistakes. The band and Warner Bros. Records took their folk-y vibe and smushed it in all of our faces and i'm definitely not complaining.
Their single "All we Ever Knew" has [More]

I have been keen on keeping my plants healthy, especially since I want them to purify the air. In this way i can reduce the usage of my Xiaomi air purifier and my electrical bill.
Last summer i decided to go Travel again in China, and i wanted to bring back some Xiaomi gadgets. So before i left back to Belgium i quickly asked my Chinese friends to order a Xiaomi Plant Sensor Flower Care from Taobao.
Looks and feel of the Flower Care.
The device it self is fairly minimal with a small light and the symbol of the Plant sensor.
Since i bought the sensor in china, i had some issues setting up the device which i will explain you how to deal with later in the article.
Beside the Mija app you can also use the original Flower Care app but i advice you not to do this, since the app adds no additional value.
When you have connected the device, you can easily search for the latin plant name and it will cross search for the plant in the Database.
The big advantage of this is that it will automatically adjust the parameters specific to the plant.
The Flower Care has a CR2032 button cell battery inside which will last approximately one year. After this you can easily replace it by opening the device and changing the battery.
The Flower Car itself exists of two parts: the sensors for the soil and the chips and the sensors for the environment. The plant sensor itself is around 12 cm long. The bottom part of the sensor is responsible for measuring the fertility and the moisture. The top part contains a temperature sensor and a light sensor.
Setup Of the Xiaomi Plant Sensor.
Important! Depending on if you have the international version or the chinese version the setup will be different.
For the Chinese version you first need change your timezone to a place in Mainland China like Shenzhen. and use a VPN to connect to Mainland China. Else if you do not perform these action it will not find the Plant Sensor
Open the MIJA or the flower car app.
Hit the plus button in the top right corner search for the Flower care or scroll down.
Select the flower care.
Normally now the flower care will show up in the list and you can the select the plant that it should monitor.
Overview of the Flower Care
When you have added the device you should wait around 10 minutes to make sure the sensor gets all the different data accurate and the data has not been polluted by the air around it.
After that you will get an overview of the Sunlight, Moisture, Temperature and the Fertility. you can go into more details inside the Mija app when you click the different icons.
After you click the icon of like above(Fertilitity) you will get an overview of the current value and what the recommended value is.
The thing i love is that it also suggests how you can improve this value. Like in the picture above i should add more fertilizer when i water the plant.
You can also gather a report which will show you the overview of the sunshine, fertility and other data over a couple of days.
In this way you can clearly see if the plant has been lacking sunlight which it is in my case.
You can also click the top right corner and click the options to get more information about the plant or about the sensor.
Here you can clearly see how well you took care of the plant.
So should you buy the plant sensor?
Well if you can buy it a chinese retail price like i did it definitely a big recommendation.
However if you look to import the sensor it become more expensive and you should consider that if you need a lot it might become expensive in general.

How to dry hydrangeas
I picked a few that didn't have too many brown petals, as some of the blooms were already passed their peak. As you can see in the picture below, the blooms have various size petals. I picked a few of each because I was curious how they would dry. I also looked for blooms that were the most vibrate color. (The purple hydrangeas are from a different bush, we left these in water and they just wilted.)
I was hoping to dry the blue ones to keep them longer and use the hydrangeas to decorate.
I read a few articles on drying hydrangeas and they were pretty much evenly split on drying them in water and drying them upside down. Since I wanted to enjoy them for a few days I went with the water method. This technique calls for the stems to be about 6-8 inches long and all the leaves removed.
The hydrangeas are then placed in a vase of water with water half way up the stem...so 3-4 inches of water. Then you simply wait...wait for all the water to evaporate.
So, I waited and I waited and I waited. Nothing...the water wasn't even moving in the vase. So I aborted that mission and decided to go with the upside down method. I used a rubber band (or actually my daughter's hair tie since it was closest to me at the time) to keep all the stems together. Then I slipped the rubber band around a hanger and hung them in a cool dark closet for a few days.
(Sorry no picture here...)
This is much faster and within a few days my blooms had started drying out. The petals on some of the blooms got very wrinkled and shriveled. I can't be sure, but I think this is probably becuase they had so much water in them when I hung them upside down to dry - remember they'd been in the vase of water for several days, so they had absorbed some of that.
Since I had dried four or five blooms, I had a few that turned out nicely and they serve just the purpose I was hoping -- a little pop of subtle color on my dresser.

Boca Raton Regional Hospital (BRRH) has selected Cerner, a global leader in health care technology, to provide an integrated electronic health record (EHR) system.
Cerner's integrated clinical, financial and operational platform will span BRRH's acute and ambulatory facilities. The integration of clinical and financial data across the organization is also intended to help improve patient accounting across the continuum.
"From the emergency, pharmacy and laboratory departments to the billing and scheduling offices, our organization will be on one integrated system," said Jerry Fedele, president and CEO of BRRH. "Our physicians and staff were involved in the selection process and are enthusiastic about the decision to replace our diverse platforms with one system that will house collective information from virtually every component of our organization."
As a U.S. News & World Report's 2015-2016 Top Ranked Regional Hospital that specializes in cardiovascular care, oncology, women's health, orthopedics, emergency medicine and the neurosciences, BRRH physicians will benefit from the ability to customize Cerner's specialty specific workflows.
"For many reasons, we are confident Cerner is the right long-term choice for us as we continue to provide high-quality, cost-effective care," Fedele said. "Cerner is committed to our success and understands our needs today, as well as our goals for tomorrow."
Located in a popular south Florida vacation and seasonal destination, BRRH often treats patients from across the country. For this reason, Cerner's interoperability functionality will help the health system exchange patient information among providers across the U.S. using industry standards.
"We look forward to transitioning Boca Raton Regional Hospital to one integrated clinical and financial record," said Zane Burke, president, Cerner. "Providers will benefit from access to patient records across the continuum and our collaborative efforts to enhance the clinician and patient experience."

The surge in California gun sales continue apace, with handgun sales in the state reportedly up 40 percent this year and long sales up 100 percent, according to Fox News Insider (via Guns.com).
The long gun sales are largely driven by the fact that new gun controls take effect January 1, 2017. Those controls ban rifles with "bullet buttons," a magazine release mechanism that will be illegal to purchase after December 31, 2016, but will remain legal to own if bought before the ban goes into effect. This puts the future of AR-15 and AK-47 sales in jeopardy and is feeding the buying frenzy.
Fox News Insider reports that "Californians are rushing to get their hands on the AR-15, which is America's most popular rifle and a longtime target of gun control proponents."
Jenna Lee, an anchor at Fox News Channel, tweeted a video of a man in line to buy a gun in California. The man explained that his central plan is to hope "love and karma" win the day, but said he was buying an AK-47 just in case:

"I am here because I believe in a system of love and karma, but to counterbalance that if it fails, I am buying an AK-47 today," he said.

An experimental investigation was carried out to determine possible differences in visible light extinction properties of continental and maritime air. Urban, desert, and oceanic atmospheres were probed by means of a stable photodiode radiometer using direct sunlight as the source. No major differences were found for the three locations. Experimental coefficients generally lie slightly below model data, though significantly higher than would be expected from purely molecular scattering. Day-to-day variations of up to 40% were found to be nearly constant over the entire visible spectrum. Results of similar extinction measurements on thin cirrus clouds show a slight increase in scattering coefficient in going from 4000 Å to 7000 Å wavelength.

This was going to be a difficult conversation to have. But Sherlock was determined to have it. He picked up his mobile and dialled John.
"Sherlock, what's up? I'm on my way home now if that's what you want."
"No, no," Sherlock replied quickly. "It's something a bit more... unpleasant. About the case?"
He heard John breathe in quickly, a sign of stress.
"Don't do anything stupid," he said quietly.
"John," Sherlock began, "I may have to dye-"
"No!" John interrupted fiercely. "You do not have to. You do not need to do anything rash or spur of the moment."
"No," John insisted. "There's Lestrade, and Mycroft, and lots of people who can help. There's no need for you to do anything that is not absolutely necessary."
Sherlock frowned. "John, if it's something that's needed on order to succeed, I don't know what you think the problem is."
"Sherlock," John practically pleaded. "Please. Don't. I don't think I can..." he paused, sniffing.
Growing more emotional, much more, tears, oh god please don't let there be tears.
"John, stop!" Sherlock paused, and John only knew he was still there because of his quiet breaths. "John, I had no clue that you felt so strongly about my hair."
"Your... What?" John stammered.
"My hair," Sherlock repeated. "I don't have to dye it if it's that big of a deal to you. I just thought it would be easier for me to infiltrate the gang if-"
"Wait, what?" John interrupted. "We're talking about your hair?" He sounded extremely skeptical.
"Yes John, my hair. Do try to keep up," Sherlock paused, frowning, and it was evident in his voice when he spoke next. "What did you think we were talking about?"
Sherlock swore he could hear John blushing.
"It's... really not important," he muttered. "Listen, I'm almost home, okay? We can talk about this in a few minutes. Okay? Bye."
Sherlock ended the call on his phone and replaced it in his pocket, clasping his hands under his chin and pacing, pondering what John had meant.
"Oh..."he breathed, finally understanding. "Die. Dye." He nodded to himself.
He attacked John as soon as he came in the door, causing him to drop the carton of milk that he'd remembered to pick up, despite the afternoon shift at the surgery.
"Sherlock?" John asked, sounding rather disbelieving, "are you... hugging me?"
"I've been told that's what this is," Sherlock replied, his arms still around John and his chin resting on John's head. "I realized what the miscommunication meant to you. The thought was displeasing to me."
Sherlock finally released John, who bent down to pick up the milk, which thankfully wasn't leaking. John moved to the kitchen to put it away while Sherlock perched on the couch.
"Not good?" he asked, referring to the hug.
"Oh, no," John said quickly. "Fine. Good even. Just... shocking."
Sherlock smirked. "I am full of surprises."
John chuckled. "I know, believe me, I know."
"Die..." Sherlock muttered to himself. "Die."
He added it to the list of things to fix. (Words mistaken for words that mean bad things. Ex- Die/Dye.)
He also added to the list of things that were acceptable only for John. (Hugs.)

Out of Office: Gary Haney
A skyscraper designer's high-altitude dreams
Gary Haney has provided the vision for some of the most notable skyscrapers around the world. His designs include Al Hamra Tower, which, when completed, Time magazine named as one of the year's best inventions. For all of his high-rise ambitions, Haney remains grounded, especially in his commitment to educating the next generation of architects. While working as a design partner at SOM, he has taught students at Pratt Institute and at Northeastern University, and as the board chair of the National Building Museum, he serves the institution's mission to explore the impact of design on people's lives.
For Out of Office, our series on the people behind SOM's global practice, we asked Gary about what inspires him, within and outside of the workplace.
What made you want to become an architect?
I always wanted to be an architect and I'm not sure why. My father was a building inspector and he used to take me to job sites after school. There were only two people that didn't have mud all over them, and that was my dad and the architect.
If you hadn't become an architect, what would you be doing?
I'd probably be working in a factory somewhere. I came from Middletown, Ohio, a factory town, which is now famous because it's the subject of Hillbilly Elegy, a book that's on the bestseller list right now. I've always wanted to be an architect, so I'd have no idea what I'd do.
What do you enjoy the most about your job?
The initial conceptualization of things — that's exciting and the most fun.
Do you have any advice for students?
I think the best advice is to stop thinking individually and to think like a team. Schools teach students to all be Frank Lloyd Wright, and things don't work that way now. Even the famous architects are not doing all the work themselves.
What is the most important quality for an architect to have?
Schools teach students to all be Frank Lloyd Wright, and things don't work that way now. Even the famous architects are not doing all the work themselves.
What are three books you think anyone should read in their lifetime?
For architecture books, it would be Vitruvius' The Ten Books on Architecture, John Ruskin's The Seven Lamps of Architecture, and Robert Caro's The Power Broker. Especially if you're a New Yorker, you must read The Power Broker to understand how the city became what it is today.
For fiction, it's Moby Dick — really, all of Melville's books. Omoo: A Narrative of Adventures in the South Seas is a fabulous book, and it sounds unbelievably modern considering when it was written. My favorite current author is Cormac McCarthy. Blood Meridian is the best book I've ever read. I wouldn't recommend it to everyone, because it's so violent, but it's an unbelievable book. I also like Shadow Country by Peter Matthiessen. It's a "frontier epic" based loosely on a true story that is entirely reliant on its interaction with the landscape, almost as if the landscape is a character in the action.
What's your favorite app?
Chess With Friends — I play it with my kids. I'm lucky to get a draw.
You're showing a visitor your city. Where's the first place you take them?
This is easy: I'd take them to my terrace that overlooks Central Park. I think Central Park is the greatest design and engineering feat in the whole city, and you can see the whole thing from my terrace. It's hard to pick a building that comes even close as a design statement.
What keeps you up at night?
My kids. They're 31 and 29. Isn't it funny? I'm a classic helicopter parent and I can't stop worrying about them. You'd think once they reach that age, it'd be easier, but it isn't.
When you think about the future, what excites you?
We're on the cusp of new developments in technology and in life. I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think that somehow having your refrigerator operated by computer is a good thing, and that there'll be a kind of scaling of technology that will make everything work better. I don't know how yet, but it'll probably apply to architecture, too.
What is most important in design right now?
Responsibility. From students who come here to clients, they're all asking for a different level of responsibility than even in the recent past. That goes for everything — from the performance of the building and energy use, to embedded carbon, to post-occupancy, to quality of life — and all of the old assumptions are not there anymore. There's a movement away from willfulness that I think is actually good. It's certainly something that we can take advantage of — that kind of responsible architecture — because that's how our firm got started.
Who is someone you admire?
Felix Baumgartner — the guy who jumped out of the balloon at 25 miles above the earth and became the fastest human ever, jumping from the highest point. I start my lectures on supertall buildings with a picture of him jumping, and you can see the earth below. To me that extreme action somehow is the jumping-off point for doing supertall buildings. It puts the whole effort in perspective.
What experiences are on your bucket list?
I'd love to go on the Virgin Galactic space flight. The only difficulty is that I'm claustrophobic, so they'd have to make the windows bigger. If I have to get inside a constrained space, I can't do it. If it looks more like 2001, I'd be happy to go. I think it would be fabulous.
What's the most awe-inspiring space you've been in?
A tiny chapel in Rome called Sant'Ivo, by Borromini. It's off a courtyard, very near Piazza Navona, and it's just the most amazing thing you've ever seen. It's pure white, Baroque, and so palpably about the space and not the surfaces. It's almost like a Rachel Whiteread piece. The building is almost inside-out — that's the feeling you get.
Define good leadership…
Getting the best people and helping them to fulfill their potential.
Define good design…
To find a good concept and let it evolve without preconceptions. All great buildings do that. When you look at them, you look at the smallest detail and the whole thing, and they're all part of the same fabric. So, it's kind of the same answer as good leadership: You have to start with the right idea and let it become what it wants to be.

WASHINGTON — The Bush Administration is considering canceling as much as $1 billion in debt owed to the United States by poor sub-Saharan African countries as part of a package to be unveiled during the annual seven-nation economic summit in Paris on July 15 and 16.
The plan, still under discussion within the Administration and with congressional leaders, would affect the debt that these countries owe under various U.S. foreign aid programs. Washington either would forgive the debts entirely or allow the countries to repay in local currencies.
U.S. officials said the ultimate size of total debt forgiveness would depend largely on the formula that the White House works out with Congress on how to count the writeoffs in the federal budget. Strategists for President Bush want an advance agreement to avert any misunderstanding.
However, Administration planners said the proposal could provide as much as $1 billion in total debt reduction from the $4.5 billion that these countries owe the United States. The bulk of Africa's debt is owed to governments rather than to commercial banks.

I've had so many ideas racing through my mind lately but sometimes it's hard to digest them all and find time to actually construct them! Do you have the same problem?
Anyways, this is a sneak peek at two projects I am working on, it's work in progress....
Softies in motion. Giraffes cut and sewn, but haven't been feed with stuffing, so they're kind of hungry right now! I didn't want to spoil the surprise until they're actually finished, so I took the picture in black and white. Can you guess how wonderfully vibrant these Giraffes are going to turn out?
Hearts Galore. This is going to be a project in progress for a while, it's a big idea with big imaginations. Hmm...why would I need to cut out all these wonderful coloured love hearts? Stay tuned, it will be revealed eventually.

A nationwide egg recall was announced yesterday by Wright County Egg in Galt, Iowa because of hundreds of link to salmonella. Colorado, California and Minnesota reported about 200 cases of salmonella linked to Wright County eggs in June and July, four times the normal number). Since Wright County Egg distributes eggs all over the country, the outbreak is "pretty much nationwide."
The outbreak in Colorado was discovered when the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noticed that illnesses were occurring from people who ate eggs in the same restaurants. Those Denver restaurants were the same ones who receive eggs from Wright County Egg.
Contaminated eggs are distributed in Colorado and seven other states packaged under the following brand names: Lucerne, Albertson's, Mountain Dairy, Ralph's, Boomsma's, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms, Kemps, James Farms, Glenview and Pacific Coast.
Egg cartons affected are those that come in packs of six, 12 and 18 with production date codes from 136-225 and plant numbers P-1026, P-1413, P-1946 (example: P-1946 136). The salmonella strain only affects shelled eggs, not other egg products.
This particular salmonella strain is Salmonella Enteritidis. It is caused by intact and disinfected eggs, which come from salmonella-infected hens that carry the bacteria in their ovaries and form into the eggs as they grow.
Colorado salmonella symptoms begin 12-72 hours after consumption of contaminated beverages or foods. Victims experience fever, diarrhea and abdominal cramps that may last 4-7 days. Usually patients will recover without any treatment but those who have a weakened immune system and prone to severe illness such as the elderly and infants have a more fatal risk.
Contact your local Denver doctor if you suspect that you may have salmonella.

text: Awards and Recognition NewGen Surgical was named a finalist in the 11th annual edie Sustainability Leaders Award for the Sustainability Product Innovation category. The edie Sustainability Leaders Award is organized by Faversham House, a specialist sustainability publisher in the UK that provides practical information, insight and intelligence to help enable business sustainability. Finalist are selected by embedding sustainability in to operations, business models and products, and by driving demonstrable results through innovation, engagement and a commitment to doing business better. What's the ocean got to do with single-use plastic medical devices you might ask? As innovators creating products and looking at the plastics problem as a design challenge, we were so honored, as part of the Think Beyond Plastic Innovation Group, to be introduced at the OUR OCEAN 2014 conference sponsored by the US State Department under John Kerry. You've seen the numbers. It's been called an "escalating ecological and human disaster." Almost half of all marine animals have plastic in their stomachs, often killing them. Some hospitals still incinerate resulting in carcinogenic particulate matter released into the air – there's been a 170 percent increase in asthma and seven million deaths per year worldwide attributed to air pollution. That's only half of the downstream story; upstream, the chemical manufacturing of plastic – getting natural resource fossil fuel extracted and manufactured to plastic – is a dirty carbon producing business. Both practices have contributed to the acidification of the ocean – and that is a dire under-told story. Ocean acidification destroys the delicate ecosystem of life which relies upon the tiniest of lifeforms for the entire ecosystem to survive. We are determined to be part of the solution. NewGen Surgical won the Health Care / Medical Tech 2015 category at the seventh annual North Bay Innovation Summit. Hosted by SoCo Nexus and North Bay iHub, the Summit featured four industry categories with 12 start-ups and early stage businesses pitching live to a panel of judges and the audience. The North Bay iHub was created in response to the State of California's Innovation Hub program to stimulate economic growth through regional innovation. By connecting resources and networks, the North Bay iHub supports innovative start-ups through programming and events like Innovation Week and the North Bay Innovation Summit.NewGen Surgical was honored to have been selected by a panel of accomplished judges as the winner of the Health Care / Medical Tech Category and to receive validation of our mission to offer hospitals sustainably designed products that help green the O.R. NewGen Surgical was commended in the 2015 Circular Economy Awards by the judges of The Young Global Leader Award, an initiative of the World Economic Forum, in the Circular Economy Entrepreneurs category for early stage organizations at the vanguard of the circular economy demonstrating innovation and market disruption. NewGen Surgical is committed to innovate, transform, and support the circular economy. Our first products use cradle-to-cradle design consideration and are manufactured with bagasse, an upcycled by-product of the sugarcane production, as the primary material. In the future, we will take this model one step further to REUSE, RECYCLE, and RECLAIM. NewGen Surgical was honored as a finalist in the 6th annual Sustainable Brands Innovation Open competition. The Innovation Open provides an opportunity for next generation brands to showcase their innovative solutions to today's pressing challenges, as well as connect and collaborate with multi-national brands, accelerators and thought leaders in sustainability.The 2017 Innovation Open competition, culminating at SB '17, attracted world-changing entrepreneurial teams with unique ideas to solving some of the world's pressing environmental, social and economic concerns. These entrepreneurs seek to disrupt, and the ideas that will come to light from these contenders will spark conversations and inspiration for even the most advanced brands.

DURHAM --Three North Carolina police officers will carry the memory of a co-worker as they make a 250-mile bicycle trip to Washington, D.C., this week. Three Duke University officers will start the Law Enforcement United Memorial Bicycle Ride on Monday and expect to arrive for a ceremony at the Pentagon on Wednesday afternoon, The Herald-Sun of Durham reported.
Mark Faust, David Johnson and Rekayi Isley say they are riding in memory of former Duke and Durham city officer Charles Callemyn, who died in a 2007 traffic accident while rushing to provide backup to a fellow officer.
After Callemyn's death, Faust and other Duke officers rebuilt the boyhood tree house Callemyn had loved as a child at his Hillsborough home, so his two sons can enjoy it.
"He was more than a co-worker," said Faust, 53. "He was a friend. There are people you work with, and then there are people who you work with who are friends as well."
Faust's 30-year-old son is a Raleigh police officer and is making the bike trip with Team Raleigh.
Faust said he's never made such a long bike trip, but he's been practicing and bought a French-made road bike just for the occasion.
"I've taken one of our challenge coins and mounted it on my handlebar, so if I get tired, I'll just look down at it," he said.

It is 8 o'clock at Bali Hai Beach Resort. In just 30 minutes the 23 teams will light their fires and
start cooking in the 13th Annual Chili Cookoff. The theme this year is "Hillbilly Chili."
The cooking booths are small canvas shelters scattered among the trees, and look more like carnival
sideshows than serious cooking platforms. I pass one booth decorated with fresh chilies; another with empty beer
I walk around the grounds and speak to some of the contestants. "Hi!" I say to an American contestant.
"How do you like your chances of winning today?"
"Well Sir, pretty damned good," he says. "We have this secret recipe and the team has been practicing
all week. We've got it down pat now and our chili is pretty damned good too."
"So, you have cooked chili before?"
He looked at me as if I had just popped up from Mars. "Sir, that is not a very sensible question. I am
from Texas, the home of chili, and I have been cooking chili most of my life."
"Sorry, no offense, but I'm new to this stuff."
He patted me on the shoulder. "That's OK Sir, but let me tell you that we aim to put our kettle to the
mettle and today we will be the kings of spice."
"Do you have any secret ingredients?"
"Shure do, Sir," he says. "But I am not at liberty to disclose that information. Comes under the
Classified Information Act."
"Sorry I asked," I say.
"That's all right Sir, but we do things by the book. After we win today our recipe will be posted at
the VFW and you can check it out there."

Is That you charlie brown?
Yes, I did pick the two colours in the above image because they remind me of Charlie Brown's famous t-shirt...Good Grief.
So, to go with my polka dot and striped pillows/cushions, I also offer a chevron print in the same range of colours, Because I'm thoughtful like that.
My ZAZZLE store has the full range of cushions, where you can choose from cotton or polyester covers, with or without zips, and indoor or outdoor.
Or head over to my REDBUBBLE store to find the wide chevron print on cushions/pillows (with or without insert), and on a wide range of home decor and accessories.
For fabric with large scale/wide/deep chevrons you can purchase from either my ZAZZLE or SPOONFLOWER stores. Wallpaper with very large, bold chevrons is available from both my Spoonflower store and from my ROOSTERY store. Roostery also offers the print on a wide range of home decor/bed linen and table linen.
What have I got for you today? Striped cushions, or pillows if you prefer...
Yes, they're a bit ubiquitous, but that's because they're an enduring classic. Stripes never go out of style. Ever!
As you can see from the above image, I have a massive range of colours for you to choose from, in either standard or wide stripes, so you can mix and match colours and stripes to your hearts content. The same colour palette was used for my polka dot cushions and doodle line art cushions, so you could go crazy and mix prints too.
At present you'll need to head over to my ZAZZLE store for the full range of cushions, where you can choose from cotton or polyester covers, with or without zips, and indoor or outdoor.
I will be gradually adding the range to my SOCIETY6 and REDBUBBLE stores though - so keep an eye out - or contact me if you would like a design adding ASAP to one of those sites.
If you are looking for fabric with really wide stripes for curtains etc, then head over to my SPOONFLOWER store, where I have a limited range of the colours available as 9in deep stripes. You can also buy wallpaper with very wide stripes from my spoonflower store, as well as from my ROOSTERY store.
Polka Dots: Modern but retro, fun yet elegant.
My polka dot pattern features randomly scattered spots - just because I prefer them that way - and is available in almost 50 colours: brights, darks, pastels, neutrals and desaturated colours, so you should be able to find a colour for any room.
For the widest range of home decor, please head to my SOCIETY6 or REDBUBBLE stores.
Although if you love shopping at ZAZZLE, I do sell my print there on cushions/pillows, fabric (large and small scale pattern), and table lamps/light shades.
I also sell a large scale polka dot print on fabric and wallpaper via SPOONFLOWER and on a wide range of home decor, bedding, table linen and wallpaper at ROOSTERY.
Seeing spots can be a good thing!
Good vibes
Spread the Good Vibes, because there just aren't enough sometimes.
This design features inky, distressed effect 'Good Vibes' text on a subtle ink-textured background. It's simple, low-key and suits a wide variety of rooms.
The design is available in (off) white, black, sunshine yellow, peach, pink, aqua-blue and a lovely orange/red.
Head over to either SOCIETY6 or REDBUBBLE to look at the full range of products.
Hand Printed Trailing Ivy
This design was inspired by the trailing leaves wall art Trish Walker has in her bedroom on Jessica Jones. I think that wall art is spray painTed, but my take on the design is printed with real ivy leaves.
I made the leaf prints purposely quite imperfect, because what's the point of hand printing stuff if it looks like it was made on a computer? The leaves are set on a slightly textured/mottled background to give a bit of extra depth.
The paler colours, such as the silver-gray and gray-green look great when mixed in with existing white bedding.
There are more colours and products available than shown above. You can shop the collection at SOCIETY6 HERE.
The ROYAL WEDDING
Despite what The Daily Mail would love everyone to believe, a good majority of people in the UK are not rabid fans of the Royal Family, and are not really that fussed about Harry and Megan's big day.
That doesn't mean we don't love our country though, so I thought now might be a good time to promote my grungy, vintage-look Union Jack design - which is also available with the ubiquitous "Kepp Calm and Carry On' slogan.
Of course the design is available on mugs, so you can enjoy a nice cup of tea whilst feeling massively patriotic, your heart bursting out of your chest with pride, as you dunk a few biscuits. I suppose you could drink coffee from the mugs if you really have to...
If you want to watch 'The Wedding' wearing UK-themed apparel, head over to my Redbubble store, where you can buy Union Jack Tops and T-Shirts. Now you can look suitable British while you dab away tears of happiness with a handkerchief bearing the Queen's face.
And of course, British punk was the best punk, so if you want some Union Jack bedding, wall art or decor - head to either REDBUBBLE or SOCIETY6 and shop to your hearts content.
Oh! And if you want UK-themed/Union Jack party invitations, head over to my ZAZZLE store for fully customisable designs.
Rule Britannia! Stiff Upper Lip! Bring Me More Tea! And so on and so forth...
God Bless America, and all who sail in her...
The design showcased today features the American Flag, the Stars and Stripes, with an aged, vintage, grungy feel.
Are you feeling patriotic? Are you already mentally planning for 4th July and all the associated celebrations? Maybe you are in the US Military or are part of a military family? Maybe you have a son who will be heading off to college soon and are desperately looking for suitable bedding/dorm room decor that is not naff, and will immediately win him friends? (No pressure...). Maybe you are going on vacation or to a music festival and want some USA themed travel accessories?
Before you ask, I don't sell this design on what I believe Americans call...fanny packs...AND I NEVER WILL!
You can buy this design from either my SOCIETY6 store or my REDBUBBLE store.
If you are in the US, just order from whichever site you prefer, but if you are in the UK/EU, please note that a lot of Redbubble's products are manufactured and shipped from within the UK/EU, so you won't get any surprise customs/extra postal charges. Society6 will refund any customs/extra postal charges for your first order from them though - so if you want something from them and it's your first order, don't panic. There's more info. about this on my ABOUT & FAQ'S page.
Both sites sell a lot of the same products, but there are some slight differences. REDBUBBLE offers the design on a larger range of apparel, so you can buy US Flag t-shirts, tops, tanks, dresses, skirts and leggings.
Both sites sell the design on duvet covers and wall tapestries, however, SOCIETY6 also offers the design on pillow shams and comforters.
When it comes to throw pillows/cushions/floor cushions the sites offer slightly different purchase options:
SOCIETY6 - All their throw pillows come complete with cushion pads. The standard indoor cushions are available from 16' - 24' and the water resistant outdoor throw pillows are available from 16' - 20'.
For floor cushions you can choose either a round or square shape and there are two size options: 26' and 30'
REDBUBBLE - You can buy throw pillows (indoor only) from 16" - 26" and can buy the cover only, or the cover and insert. At present they offer a 36' floor cushion cover - but you will have to source the cushion pad from somewhere else for now. Although they do hope to offer the option of a cushion pad ASAP.
For accessories, head to either site, but backpacks are only currently available from SOCIETY6.
I like to sleep in a nice, calm, simple bedroom.
Call it minimalist, or scandi, or whatever you like, but really I just like to keep things simple, low-key and non-fussy.
At the end of the day, I don't want to look at any visual clutter, I don't want to have to process any bold colorfuL patterns (as much as I like them) because by the time it comes to hit the hay, I quite often feel like my eyes are about to burst. I also have a problem trying to switch my brain off...
So, I really designed this bedding for myself. It consists of white lino-printed hexagons arranged into a penny-tile pattern on a pale silver-gray. This pattern is also available in the reverse print and in many other colours.
Head to my SPOONFLOWER store to purchase the design on fabric, wallpaper or gift-wrap, and to ROOSTERY if you'd like the design on home decor, wallpaper, bedding and table linen.
SeEING STARS...AGAIN
My lino-printed stars pattern is now available via SPOONFLOWER & ROOSTERY (and therefore, also via SPROUT).
This means that along with being able to buy the print on a multitude of fabrics via SPOONFLOWER - from organzas to technical fabrics - and on a huge variety of home furnishings via ROOSTERY, such as throw pillows, bedlinen and kitchen/dining room accessories, it's also available as....WALLPAPER!
SPOONFLOWER sells Wallpaper in 2ft x 12ft standard rolls and also as custom length rolls so that you can buy as much or as little as you need, there are two options when it comes to the type of wallpaper: a smooth, water activated (removable) paper, or, a woven peel-and-stick repositionable paper. So if you're renting (or you're just really fickle) this is the wallpaper for you!
ROOSTERY'S isobar wallpaper has a subtle leathered texture, a low-sheen matte finish, and is sold in 2ft by 27ft rolls. This paper is ideal for all room types as it is scratch resistant, PVC-free, FSC Certified, has a Class A fire rating and is mold, mildew and water resistant.
At present there are 15 colors to choose from - there are soft neutral colors, pastels, desaturated colors, brights, a couple of dark blue options and a black and white version.
The soft desaturated colors, such as the gray-green, the beige/light warm gray, and the white and silver options give you the option of having quite a fun print, but in an elegant, grown-up, non-overpowering way.
If you've got a kid who is a massive Harry Potter or Newt Scamander fan (or maybe you are the fan), you should be able to find a suitable color option for your mini witch or wizard's magic-themed bedroom.
The yellows and greens work great for areas that you might want to keep a bit more gender neutral, such as a nursery or playroom, as do the neutrals and darker options.
The dark blues and black color options also work great for anyone who is into outer space, astronomy or astrology.
Stars also obviously work well for birthday's, Christmas and Halloween, so be sure to have a look at all the table linen and napkins etc that ROOSTERY offer.
Here's a lovely simple design for you.
Understated, subtle, low-key and minimal.
Sometimes, when you've been stressed and busy all day, and you feel like your head/eyes/entire being is about to burst, you want to chill-out in a room that is zen and calm and not all up in your face.
This design features a hand printed lino texture (I didn't cut my hands to shreds making this one! Woo-hoo!) in an overlapping geometric design.
There's enough design and texture to make it interesting without it being overwhelming. Of course it comes in white, but there's some lovely soft pastel shades to choose from too.
As always the design is available via my SOCIETY6 store on a wide range of products, including bedding, bathroom decor and soft furnishings. It's also available via my REDBUBBLE store, if you want a cushion cover without the cushion pad.

Free with museum admission
Celebrate the Japanese New Year with Kagami Kai, an acclaimed mochi group, as it presents the colorful and exciting New Year tradition of mochi pounding to make delectably sweet rice cakes, with lively music, energetic dance and traditional costumes.
As part of the day, fold paper cranes and take an omikuji (paper fortune) from our fortune tree to take home for luck and prosperity in the new year.
Please note, the annual Mochi Pounding ceremony is scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 20, the same day as the Women's March. The museum will be open on Jan. 20 and will host the program as planned from 11 AM-2 PM, with the Mochi Pounding ceremony itself from 12-1 PM. The Women's March speeches begin at 12 PM across the street from the museum in Civic Center Plaza. The march begins at 2 PM.
Although the Civic Center will be impacted by street closures and crowds, SFMTA and BART are increasing service to the Civic Center, so public transportation remains the best option for getting to the museum. Check the city's website for detailed maps, routes and other information. Interested in attending both Mochi Pounding and the Women's March? Head into the museum before the march and maybe you'll be picked to pound mochi as part of this annual new year tradition!
Through programs and exhibitions, the Asian Art Museum promotes learning about Asian art and culture, respecting diverse cultures and ways of thinking. We aim to be a place where visitors of all ages, backgrounds and abilities feel welcome, where people connect with themselves and each other.

Ratcatcher - Atari 5200
The city sewer needs a cleaning!
Rats have infested the city's sewer system! Biff, Buzz, and Pork-Chop have been hired by the mayor to deal with the problem, but the sewers are a dangerous place! Nasty alligators prowl the pipes, choking gas drifts about, charges of ball lightning spark up in the darkness, and mysterious sewer gremlins love to play pranks!
The water system has been diverted to a back-up tank, but if the pressure gets too high the tank will discharge a dangerous flow of water. Can the ratcatchers use this water to their advantage, or will it ruin their day when it releases at the wrong moment?
Ratcatcher is a simple arcade style game for three players, largely inspired by Mario Bros. and Taito's Zookeeper.
The city sewer has been overrun by nasty critters, grab some friends and clean it out!
The rats need to be caught, trap them with the sewer gates if you can, but beware of deadly alligators that prowl the depths. The city water system can keep them under control, but deadlier hazards await as you descend into the depths.
Ratcatcher features three-player simultaneous action as you and two friends (or enemies!) race to rack up the most points. Work with your partners, using the gates and water system to keep things under control, or undermine your competitors, leaving them in the depths as alligator food.
Additional Information
Ratcatcher includes a box, game cartridge, and a full-color, 12-page manual.

What You'll Get
Although licking Indian stamps provides a hint of traditional flavour, one must eat nearly a dozen Delhi-addressed envelopes before beginning to feel full. Avoid ink stains on the tongue with today's deal: for $20, you get $40 worth of Indian cuisine and drinks at Garam Masala, located in Mississauga.
Tour the tastes of everyone's favourite subcontinent with a visit to Garam Masala. Owner and chief chef Jagat Ram's 30 years of experience directing the kitchens of five-star hotels has endowed him with sumptuous superpowers that enable the seamless pairing of textures with flavours and spices with customers' horoscopes. Inaugurate the feast with a Punjabi samosa ($0.99 each), or whet an herbivorous appetite with an order of vegetable pakoras ($4.99). Put Garam Masala's authentic clay tandoor to the test by sampling the hara tikka ($11.99), a five-piece chicken ensemble marinated in mint and cooked to fork-flaking tenderness. Garam Masala's extensive menu also includes all the saucy favourites, from the tangy lamb vindaloo ($12.99) to a generous helping of butter chicken ($11.99). Like a hard-nosed news editor, the denizens of the vintage wine list cut spices without mercy, making the difficult decisions that will leave mouths trembling with trepidatious appreciation.
Hardwood trim, stiff tablecloths, and fresh rose centerpieces suffuse Garam Masala with a grace and restrained upscale elegance that will surely impress any date or impressionable tax evaluator. Between the traditional eats and visual treats of Garam Masala, your culinary escape will grant you the physical and mental preparedness required to beat Sitar Hero on Hard Mode.
Restaurantica reviewers give Garam Masala a four-star average:
- I went at [sic] Garam Masala because of my friend's recommendation. Their chi tikka was amazing and so as [sic] the naan bread. I've never had such an authentic Indian food anywhere. Service was good, very comfortable place...I'll go again. – Annie
- Have tried their takeout. This is the best tandoori chicken we've eaten in Canada in several years. – D'Cruz

We may receive commissions from purchases made after visiting links within our content. Learn more about our review process.When you're looking to upgrade your desktop computer, there are multiple factors to consider such as hardware performance and memory, but it's unlikely you're giving much thought to the keyboard. Aside from the likelihood that most keyboards you buy will outlive your computer, a good ergonomic keyboard can make the difference between a full day's worth of comfort on the computer or a morning spent at the doctor treating you for wrist problems. So whether you're Team Windows or Team Mac, wireless or wired, there's an ergonomic keyboard for everyone.Also, check out our guide to the best keyboard wrist rests you can buy today. Best Overall: Microsoft Sculpt Buy on Amazon Widely recognized as the best ergonomic keyboard on the market, Microsoft's Sculpt for Windows computers is a standout choice for all-day comfort. The split keyboard design immediately assists in positioning your wrists into a more natural position rather than the straight-on approach most keyboards favor. The domed design helps maintain positioning throughout the day, keeping your wrists at a more relaxed angle, which helps to eliminates the discomforts that come from other models. Beyond its split design, the natural arc keys mimic the curved shape of your fingertips to create a more natural look and feel, which increases overall comfort. Rounding out its ergonomic design is a cushioned palm rest that allows your wrists to relax and form a completely natural feel from your fingertips to your wrists. A separate number pad allows you to choose its position for an ideal comfort level beside the Sculpt keyboard. Best Wireless: Microsoft Surface Buy on Amazon Buy on Jet Ideally suited for Microsoft's Surface line of computers, this ergonomic keyboard is designed with comfort in mind and is a great choice for finding a natural arc. Powered by Bluetooth 4.0/4.1 and three AAA batteries with a 12-month lifespan, the Surface keyboard is wirelessly compatible up to 32 feet away from the Surface lineup. When you're in front of the computer, you'll find that the double-cushioned palm rest, which is covered in a mix of polyester and polyurethane (better known as Alcantara), is both durable and stain resistant. Beyond its durability, the Surface keyboard excels at protecting your hands and wrists through its keycap geometry, split space bar and a more natural design that works to prevent wrist and hand strain. The expert build quality allows for a smooth typing experience that's whisper quiet with excellent stability for use on nearly any surface. Best Budget: Fellowes Microban Buy on Amazon Buy on Walmart Budget priced with premium comfort, the Fellowes Microban split design keyboard offers more natural comfort without breaking the piggy bank. Part of the Microban family of products, the antimicrobial protection will help keep your keyboard clean while still offering a more natural hand and arm position. Created with Windows machines in mind, the Fellowes includes seven hot keys dedicated to controlling multimedia playback, as well as one-touch access to open a Web browser. The dedicated number pad on the side reduces the need for external hardware and having to look for the numerical numbers at the top of the keyboard. While there's undoubtedly an adjustment period to any ergonomic keyboard, the immediate benefit of reduced pain and stress combined with Fellowes outstanding wrist support will quickly have you asking why you didn't switch to an ergonomic keyboard sooner. Best for Macs: Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue Buy on Amazon Apple computer users should look no further than the Kinesis Freestyle2 blue wireless ergonomic keyboard that comes with a bevy of Apple-specific keyboard shortcuts, including cut, copy, paste and undo. Connecting to your Apple machine via Bluetooth 3.0, a single battery charge on the Kinesis should last around 300 hours or six months (based on two hours per day of typing).You'll immediately discover that the negative slope design reduces the required extension of your wrist to hit each key. Available with three different channels, the Bluetooth-based functionality allows for a total of three devices to be synced at one time (switching between the devices requires the single press of a key). Additional buttons include a shortcut for hiding (and showing) the dock, advanced controls for multimedia playback and volume. Best for Portability: MoKo Foldable Keyboard Buy on Amazon Considering how thin and sleek it is, the MoKo keyboard's size alone could likely qualify it as the most portable on this list. But when you factor in that the ergonomic keyboard is foldable, things look even better.Weighing only 6.2 ounces and sporting dimensions of 6.2" x 4" (with an unbelievable thickness of only half an inch), the tech accessory feels more like a Kindle than a full-sized keyboard when stowed in your bag. It connects via Bluetooth (though the keystrokes for turning it on seem a little quirky), and it's laid out into two key sections to support the standard two-hand ergonomic feel.The 110 mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery takes about two hours to fully juice up, but that'll give you up to 30 days of standby time and 40 hours of continuous type time. The company also promises about 3 million clicks of key lifetime, so this keyboard will be kicking for a while. To round out the cool factor, this gadget is pretty intuitive — right out of your bag it automatically powers on and off just by opening and closing it. Best Splurge: Mistel Barocco Buy on Amazon The Mistel Barocco is specifically designed for typing purists, gamers and programmers. While gamers will love the lighting fast key registering, typists will enjoy the compact, design-saving space on the desk and programmers will appreciate both Dvorak and Coleman (as well the common QWERTY) preset layouts along with three extra customizable layouts. The ergonomic design breaks the keyboard into two pieces for a split design that can be positioned for a natural feel on your wrists, thus increasing productivity and reducing pain and stress. Minimizing hand movement is a benefit of a split keyboard design and this is where Mistel delivers. The keyboard remains both durable and tough, thanks to a temperature-resistant build that's resistant to friction and solvents (read: its lifespan is likely to outlast your existing computer). Best for Gaming: Razer Ornata Chroma Revolutionary Buy on Amazon Buy on Jet Buy on Best Buy Gaming fans who want a more comfortable keyboard feel combined with the features and looks of a mechanical one have found their answer with the Razer Ornata Chroma Revolutionary option. Gaming-centric features such as LED backlighting and in-game effects immerse you into the experience. For long-term gaming sessions, it's the curved wrist rest that really appeals. Built specifically for the Razer Ornata, the curved wrist rest makes up for the lack of a split keyboard, allowing long-term gaming sessions to feel more comfortable and natural than a traditional gaming keyboard would allow. Adding to the ergonomic value is the mid-height keycap sizing that allows for easier keystrokes between each key depression, which minimizes the impact continuous finger movements will have on your wrists.Want to take a look at some other options? See our guide to the best gaming keyboards. Best Mechanical: Matias Ergo Pro Buy on Amazon Quieter than the more traditional mechanical keyboard, the Matias Ergo Pro for Windows computers offers a tactical feel and reduces the impact that standard ones have from the repetitious jarring of the hands and fingers. The split keyboard design immediately improves body posture, elbow placement and allows your wrists to be placed outward from your body for a more natural feel. Additionally, the compact design reduces the reach to a mouse, thereby lessening the impact on your neck and shoulders. A padded palm rest combines with a 4.5-degree of negative tilt for even more reduction of wrist strain. Its capable of being used flat and at a nine-degree angle courtesy of the built-in keyboard legs.Check out our other reviews of the best mechanical keyboards available on the market today.
