Commercialization and New Product Development Internship offered by Recompute in conjunction with UHGBC
Starting a company from scratch is a lot of work. However, what if you had the opportunity to grow an existing product and directly learn what it takes to get things off the ground? What if you could take a successful project to the next level and make it the next big idea?
Recompute is looking for students to be part of a multi-disciplined team in conjunction with the University of Houston College of Architecture Green Building Components Initiative (UHGBC) program. Together, we are excited to offer this unique internship opportunity for hardworking students to get real world experience in running a startup sustainable design technology company.
An internship with Recompute will expose you to every aspect of what it takes to build and operate a company at the grass roots level.
We are looking for students, from any local university, in the following disciplines (one or in any combination below):
Recompute is the world's first sustainable production computer system, originating from the UH Industrial Design Program and based in Houston, TX. Recompute is seeking four driven, clever and resourceful students to be part of a collaborative team, which will have first hand opportunity working at an eco-friendly technology manufacturing business. If selected for the team, you will be responsible to work as a group to take Recompute to the next level of larger commercialization potential. Team members will be responsible to run the multi-faceted aspects of the company: managing the website, developing business relationships, marketing, sales, manufacturing, supply chain, technical support, as well as new product development. In a nut shell: Doing what it takes to grow the product and company on a daily basis.
Upon the completion of the Internship, students will receive course credit with the potential continuation from internship to a full time position as well as tuition assistance. There are also opportunities for profit-sharing, company equity and a tuition stipend. This is an investment in sweat equity, bridging the gap between academia and the real world with applied business knowledge in regards to marketing, design and manufacturing. Interns are expected to be goal driven, self motivated and willing to make things happen.
Brief History of Recompute:
Recompute began life as a student project that has morphed into the first sustainable production computer manufactured in the world. Guided by the principle of Full Life Cycle Design, Recompute has been globally recognized for its innovation and emphasis on sustainability applied to how technology products are manufactured. Full production began in 2010, and since Recompute has sold units to individuals, companies and universities across the world. It has been featured on hundreds of websites, numerous publications and is on permanent collection in multiple museums. It is our goal to educate the world on the importance of sustainability in technology, and have Recomputes in as many business and educational intuitions as possible.
How to Apply:
Application deadline is June 3rd. Internship begins in June and runs through December. This is a full time internship for the summer and negotiable part time fall duration. Internship is located in Houston, TX.
Applicants should submit a letter of intent/interest to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please include a brief summary of your independent project or business work that has been accomplished in recent years. Professor recommendations are highly encouraged.
Recompute is now available in Fry's stores and directly at Frys.com! This is the retail debut for Recompute, with a special model, called the A8. Fry's has Recomputes available in stores in California, Washington and Oregon, also found on Fry's.com and can be ordered through ANY Fry's store across the nation. This is a major milestone and I am very excited to share this with all of you. Recompute has gone from research to retail in four years and within that time has exceeded any and all expectations from a humble student project.
For those who do not know Recompute, it started off as my thesis work at the Industrial Design program at the University of Houston's College of Architecture. As industrial designers, we are the architects of all the objects in the world, from toasters to toothbrushes, from automobiles to furniture, it all starts with us. There is a joke amongst industrial designers: We make landfill, as it seems to be the inevitable fate of much of what we create. I took that joke to heart and knew that as the professionals who create all these objects, that we could do a better job of influencing the environmental impact of them. The first day of the project I started off only with a single question: "What does sustainability and design mean?".
After six months I had assembled a set of considerations which evolved into a methodology known as Full Life Cycle Design. As any good professor should, mine challenged me to prove the methodology. I needed an object to test out my thinking, some product that causes all sorts of problems in our world. After viewing pallets and pallets of dead computers at a local recycling center, I had found my guinea pig. A few months later the first working Recompute prototype was presented as my final thesis project. While I consider the methodology of Full Life Cycle Design to be what my thesis is about, Recompute became the proof that it can be done.
At the encouragement of my professor, I entered Recompute is a few design competitions in the fall 2008. Fast forward to the spring of 2009, I get a call from a good friend late one night. "Hey, you are on the front page of Gizmodo!" Recompute made it to the top 50 finalist in the 2009 CES Greener Gadgets design competition sponsored by Core77. Over the next month media inquires from around the globe about the contest went viral on the Internet, through tech blogs like Engadget, Tom's Hardware and PC Mag's Good Clean Tech with Recompute being the poster child of the competition. The top 10 entries went up before a panel of judges at the conference in New York City. I attended the conference, with the prototype in a brief case. Recompute was the only real physical prototype in a sea of concepts, I watched the judges critique Recompute as a "dumb idea."
I wrote the experience off as a fluke and moved on. That was until I received a notice that I had won a Design Distinction Award, in I.D. Magazine's 2009 Annual Design Review. The media snow ball started again. I was asked time after time; "where can I get one of those at?" Realizing that I may be on to something, Recompute needed to be manufactured and prove that it is plausible as a product. All the resources and people needed to get it off the ground were available right here in my home town of Houston, Texas. The next six months were spent trying to figure out what needed to be done to start the business and learning how to take the prototype and actually manufacture finished computers ready for market.
January 2010 the R&D began. A waiting list of potential buyers had been forming and the green light was given to the sub contractors to begin production on the Recompute bodies. By March, it became quite clear that after several failed attempts, the sub contractor could not get the production correct. I was told it was impossible to produce. The thought crossed my mind that perhaps this is as far as Recompute could go. The frustration was building, as the sub contractor promised the world, delivered nothing while it cost me time and money. However, necessity is the mother of innovation and I decided that we would buy our own production equipment and produce the computers in house, proving that it could be done.
Over the course of this process I had met several great people along the way, all supportive and encouraging for the project. The Houston Chronicle did a cover story about Recompute in the business section, the Associated Press picked it up the story and it went global again. I met the crew at Culture Pilot, a local web design company and J.R. Cohen from YMKM marketing agency, who helped me build the company website and create buzz locally and through the web. They were all so excited and stepped forward to volunteer their time and skills to help move Recompute forward. What I can't emphasis enough is the genuine honesty in which everybody in Houston truly the development of Recompute as a business, that is why I love this city.
During the six month R&D time window several things started happening, more inquires came in from around the world; before I knew it I was sending Recomputes to global design exhibitions, such as "Green Machines" hosted by the Sciene Gallery of Trinity College in Dublin, and museums such as the Tekniska Museet in Stockholm, Sweden. Article, after article continued to be published about Recompute, and eventually led to being featured in a handful of books based on sustainability, cardboard and design. Taschen, released Product Design n the Sustainable Era, while other books such as Outside the Box: Cardboard Design Now along with the Cardboard Book all featured Recompute. The media roller coaster was still going…
It took another six months to work out the engineering production issues the sub contractor deemed as impossible, with the help of Bill Stobe at International Paper and Jason Zaiger at Dieco the kinks were ironed out in the processes. The first production Recomputes were ready in August 2010, and we were eager to start filling waiting list orders, however only six of the over 200 names on the waiting list actually bought computers. It was a tough blow, as my expectations were to sell at least 50 or so units in the first months of production to put a little capital under our belt. Sales were slow for the remainder of the year, again a shock in contrast to all the media attention that had been going on in the last 18 months. I started to believe that Recompute is only a concept, and while it can be produced and people like it they are not willing to buy it. By December I thought it was a lost cause…
I had been curious about Linux for some time now and realized that this was a community of users that have been dramatically under served for years. So in efforts to support them when Recompute launched we offered a Linux version, something that most computer companies would never do. As it turns out Linux Journal Magazine, the largest Linux publication in the world, was curious to test and review the Ubuntu Linux Recompute. When Shawn Powers' review came out, in February 2011 to my surprise it rang a chord with the dedicated insiders of the computer community. The match of sustainable design and software had come together at last sparked a wave of interest to Linux buyers.
I traveled to Europe in the spring of 2011 for a back to back set of lectures about Recompute. First, the MIAT (Museum of Industry and Textile) in Gent, Belgium had been given a Recompute a year earlier for their permanent exhibit called "World Wide Work." I was invited to come an speak at the museum about the development of Recompute; It was shocking to see that in a giant museum of industrialization and products, Recompute was viewed as the next evolution of how products are to be made and the corner stone of sustainable products to come. Essentially the last page in the book of object history.
Then on to Hamburg, Germany, the Greenest city in Europe, for the GoodGoods products show. It was the first event of its kind in Europe, focusing on green and sustainable products. Recompute was invited to be part of the "Design Island," featuring the most progressive ideas in sustainable product design, with the likes of Sony. I was given the opportunity to speak about Recompute and meet many great people who understand why sustainability is so important for our world.
Many great things began to follow my Europe trip, The BBC's One Planet radio show got to have some hands on time with a Recompute, Fast Company magazine featured in as part of the new Eco Office, and Recompute became a sponsor for TEDx Houston. Most Recently some progressive IT professionals at the University of Northern Iowa and the University of Maine Machias, took notice of Recompute and began to deploy Recomputes on their campuses aiding in their schools' journey towards sustainability, I hope that more AASHE schools will think the same.
Along the way, some of the folks at Fry's electronics stores were curious as well. This brings us to where we are right now: A student project, formed into a small manufacturing company here in the US, producing the only sustainable computer on the market is sitting on the shelves next to the Goliaths of the industry, changing the paradigm of design and possibilities. Currently Recompute is under review by the Dutch government for use in education.
I wanted to thank everybody who has helped and supported Recompute and myself along the way, it as been a journey of intense work, high, lows, dreams and reality. I hope that others take my story as inspiration not to give up. I feel a sense of accomplishment and perhaps a better understanding of what is possible when you put your mind to it. Where Recompute goes from here I am not sure, but I hope it leads to the next great project that can have next positive impact on our world.
–Brenden Macaluso, Designer, Recompute
Thanks to Shawn @ Linux Journal for the great review of Recompute!
We have been getting a lot of great support from the Linux community, more than we ever expected. We are here for you guys and want to support you as best as we can. Also, we are proud to be one of the few companies who have a turn-key Linux offering. Many folks are using Recompute as springboard introduction to the wonderful world of Linux…We like to think of Linux as sustainable software, which in turn helps keep your hardware living a long and useful life. Just in case any of you are wondering we use Ubuntu every day here at the Recompute office and are happy to educate others about it.
We have also had a lot of folks asking about a performance Linux machine, so we made one for 2011. It is currently available though Amazon.com and soon on our site. It can be purchased directly form Amazon as configured or fully customized, with solid state boot drive, Video card, more RAM and bigger Hard Drive. Drop us a line at email@example.com for any custom inquires.
Linux Journal is giving away a second Recompute DIY kit today.
Thanks to all the support from the Linux Community!
A while back we received a copy of a paper & cardboard industry trade journal form Germany that had a feature about Recompute. We had to have a good friend of ours translate it for us:
Green Computing: PC Casing made of cardboard
This machine should compute well: Texan designer Brenden Macaluso has designed a PC casing made of cardboard, which completely satisfies expectations of green computing. While usual designs are made of a variety of materials, such as plastic, aluminum, and steel sheet metal, Macaluso's casing is made of one single material: cardboard. Based on renewable resources, this design has good environmental qualities, reduces costs, and shortens production time. During the
assembly of electronic devices, elements such as motherboard, power supply, and hard drive are not held into place by screws, but are just plugged into the casing. For this, you only need to open two folds in
the back, and suddenly you have access to the intended slots. Besides the cooling system, the circulating air in the cardboard ensures sufficient air ventilation.
Equipped with the latest technology, Macaluso distributes the cardboard computer under the name "Recompute" in both standard and deluxe Windows version, as well as in a Linux variation. No matter what the customer chooses – when the machine is finished, disposing of the "green computer" is very simple. With a few moves you can take out the electronic interior and put the casing out on the curb for recycling.
We think they nailed the review pretty spot on…
We sent a Recompute to the folks at Engadget who just wrote a review on the computer; check it out here.
A good friend of ours who is a trademark/copyright attorney in Washington D.C. sent us an interesting link. Apparently she gets regular news feeds from different sources that relate to patent/copyright/trademark law. Well Thomas net news published the Top 7 Coolest (Strangest) of 2010, and Recompute made the list. Here is the excerpt from the article:
Cardboard Computer
The Greener Gadgets Design Competition in New York featured a lot of environmentally friendly devices, but none aroused as much interest as Brenden Macaluso's Recompute PC. The computer hosts 2GB of RAM, a 2.5-inch hard drive, four USB ports and a micro ATX motherboard. Oh, and the body is made of cardboard. Macaluso says cardboard was an ideal material for the Recompute, because it's recyclable and has a higher fire and ignition point than plastic. The whole thing is combined with non-toxic adhesive, according to Tom's Hardware.
While the tech specs are a little bit old, we appreciate the recognition. Read the full article here.
OK so this site has done the job of being a web hub for Recompute, however our good friends at Culture Pilot are making us a new one. The first parts of it should be up very soon with a full transition to happen ASAP. It will have a full E-commerce section where you can officially order your own Recompute and a community area where you can share your stories, pictures and modifications with fellow Recompute owners.
In the meantime we have had great success with our first High School Builder Program at Pearland High School. The students have finished building a Recompute for the class and are now working on building their own machines. Check out some pictures and video on our flickr site
As of this week Recompute has officially gone into production! Currently we are setting up our assembly facility and we should see the first batch of parts in a few weeks, which means the first finished machines should follow in the coming month.
For those of you who are on the waiting list,your orders will be honored first and then machines will be built per order. However due to the overwhelming interest in Recompute, it has been decided to offer multiple models and options for all the different kinds of users out there.
Check out the anticipated models and versions of Recompute on the updated specs page
We will keep you posted on the manufacturing progress, as there is still a good bit of work to do. Hopefully some video and pictures too. Also a new and improved site should be up as well. It has been a lot of work to get here, so thanks to everyone for all of your patience and support!
Recompute was asked to be the host computer for a few Windows 7 parties happening this Thursday the 22nd!
The first is at the Coffee Groundz the second is with Robb Zipp from Robbzipp.net.
This is your chance to see both Recompute and Windows 7 running together
We will be documenting both parties, so there should be some photos up soon.
Just a quick reminder to get on the waiting list to get one of the initial releases of the Recompute DIY kit coming out during the holiday season.
The Houston Chronicle just printed a feature about Recompute!!! Here it is
Recompute is going to be featured at the University of Houston College of Architecture Green Building Components exhibition.
Opening Reception: September 10, 5:00-7:30pm
Exhibition runs from September 8-18, 2009

Neighbors in a Pasadena, Maryland, neighborhood discovered an infant crying in a car seat over the Fourth of July weekend. FOX 59 News reports spilled formula was found on the road — along with scuff marks on the side of the car seat.
The Anne Arundel County Police Department posted a picture of the baby girl on the department's Facebook page that received over 31,000 shares. "We're most fortunate that the child is not harmed and appears to be in good condition," said Lt. T.J. Smith, director of media relations.
Mother of infant charged in abandonment case- #ShareAlertAbandoned infant found on #Pasadena roadwayUpdate #2-...Posted by Anne Arundel County Police Department on Sunday, July 5, 2015
Sandra McClary contacted police after the social media alert, claiming to be the infant's mother. McClary alleges she had no clue regarding her 6-week-old's whereabouts, as the baby's father had her during the night in question. The 26-year-old mother has been arrested and charged with reckless endangerment and child neglect. Investigators now believe Sandra was in the area where her daughter was found and left her on the side of the road.
Police have yet to charge McClary with child abuse or abandonment, as they're still looking into the matter. "We need to make sure that there wasn't any foul play involved, and that this person wasn't a victim of a crime herself," Lt. Smith points out. "We're trying to figure that out."
Under the Maryland Safe Haven Law, any parent unwilling to care for their child can give up custody without question. There's a 10-day window from the child's birth that enables parents and those with the mother's permission to safely leave the newborn at a noted hospital or law enforcement location. According to Maryland Department of Human Resources, "A person who invokes Safe Haven is immune from civil liability or criminal prosecution provided the child is unharmed."
It's truly sad to think a parent wouldn't want their child — let alone think it's OK to toss them somewhere. Thank goodness neighbors heard this child's screams. Who knows if the father was involved, if this was a domestic incident or why the mother would leave her newborn on the side of the road?
While there are plenty of questions that need to be answered, at least the baby is safe. Let's hope that this family gets whatever help and/or intervention they need to make sure that it stays that way.

Goodevening, everyone!!
Hope its been a good christmas all around the internets, I've really enjoyed mine. I got a few bucks from relatives and decided I want to put that towards a new Impact wrench for my shop.
When I got my first air compressor in 2007 or 2008 or so, it came with one of those cheapie impacts you can get anywhere... It was kinda useless (remember having to jump on a 1/2" Craftsman ratchet in order to break most things loose) but I thought it was the coolest thing ever and had a blast with it.
Anyway, I've had a few instances where I really wished I had a good impact, its not something I'd use everyday, but one of those things where when you need it, you need it...
And I've decided to go get a nice one.
I'm looking for something with some power, more than my cheapie one of years gone by, and somethings thats pretty durable.
I don't know a lot about air tools, mostly just use my compressor to power the plasmas, so I figured I'd ask on here...
From what I gather, Ingersoll Rand makes some fine units, and the 231 series is a pretty nice wrench. Any feedback? What other nice impacts could I find in the $100-$200 range?
Lowe's sells a kit, with a 231G and an air ratchet for $150 that I'm leaning towards now, I've heard good things about the 231, but I guess I'm just wondering what else is out there.
I'm not really looking for anything "composite", I want the least amount of plastic possible on a tool... I won't be using it 8 hours a day so the weight-savings wouldn't be a huge deal for me... Same with bright yellow/ridiculous graphics lol
Anyway, any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated... Enjoy the last few hours of christmas, everyone :)

On Wednesday, people lined up in droves around the U.S. (and, yes, in some other countries) for what many hold up as the best beer in the world, Westvleteren XII.
While much has been written about this beer, its producers at The Trappist Abbey of Saint Sixtus and the epic one-day sale, in particular, what about the Trappist breweries as a whole?
Enter, Marc Beirens, owner of the only beer distributor handling all of the Trappist breweries, Belgium-based Weynants. The soft-spoken Beirens joined Shelton Brothers' under-the-radar weekly radio gig, The High and Mighty Beer Show, this past spring and dropped a lot of knowledge about what goes on inside each of the abbeys (we'll use that term to keep things simple though there are distinctions between monasteries and abbeys). Shelton Brothers, which handled Wednesday's one-time U.S. sale of Westvleteren, also imports Achel, one of the Trappist breweries, to the U.S. on a year-round basis.
Beirens' father started in the beer distributing business back in 1961 with Weynants. At that time, he was the youngest in a brewer's family and looking for other beer-related businesses to explore outside of brewing.
In the 1960s, the company distributed Westmalle and Orval. It wasn't until 1977, that they picked up Chimay and then a few years later, it signed Rochefort. Around the turn of the Millenium, Weynants signed Achel to fill out the Trappist portfolio. Today, Weynants also carries Loterbol and Erdinger.
Monks and nuns in Trappist abbeys follow the Rule of St. Benedict. Each day, they divide their schedule approximately evenly between eight hours of work with their hands, eight hours for prayer and eight hours for rest. Of course, they eat, too. They are vegetarians, says Beirens.
But how do they make money?
In the case of the abbeys brewing beer, Beirens says politics of the abbots determine the commercial and charitable goals of each abbey. Production varies widely from abbey to abbey with one producing just 4,000 hectoliters and others producing tens of thousands.
Rochefort, for example, recently increased production from 15-17,000 hectoliters annually (13-14,000 U.S. barrels) to 28,000 hectoliters annually. The Rochefort abbot "had a lot of investments" in the abbey, Beirens says, and he needed to increase revenue to cover those investments. He is no longer there, according to Beirens, and a new abbot is now overseeing construction. The hope of the abbey is to spruce up the place in order to attract younger people to join.
Aging residents is a key problem across the abbeys. Beirens jokes that 70 years of age is actually young for a monk and that most hope to retire between the age of 75-80 years.
It is not a luxurious lifestyle. Those following the Rule of St. Benedict take a vow of poverty and give up their possessions to be shared among others as community property when they take up 'monkhood.'
This helps explain why, despite demand obviously outweighing supply for Wednesday's Westvleteren XII sale, the retail price of boxes (containing six bottles and two glasses) were limited to $85. The Abbey of Saint Sixtus hopes to raise 'just enough' money with the global sale of these Westvleteren XII boxes to cover the costs of much-needed abbey restorations. The monks aren't interested in perception of the sale as a capitalistic enterprise which is why Shelton Brothers has been adamant about the boxes going for $85 at every retail location.
Strange as it may seem, as many in the U.S. imbibed with Westvleteren XII on Wednesday evening (some for the first time), the monks themselves would have been drinking the lightest beer that they produce on Wednesday, or even more likely, water. They don't get drunk.
Most of them don't brew either, according to Beirens. Only at Westvleteren and Achel, do they brew.
Weynants is the only distributor for Achel, the smallest of the abbeys in terms of both production and number of monks with eight or so. Beirens cautions that there could be transition there in the next several years and wonders whether the abbey may change hands or lose it 'Trappist' designation.
Westmalle, meanwhile has more than 25 monks and ten worldwide distributors. Westvleteren produces about the same limited amount of beer as Achel but has around 30 monks.
Westmalle and Chimay are the largest breweries among the abbeys, both producing over 100,000 hectoliters annually. The 150 year-old Chimay, especially driven by charitable efforts and donations to many international organizations, brewed nearly 170,000 hectoliters in 2011. Ranked first among the Trappist breweries, sales have grown thanks to a rapid rise in international demand. Even Orval has doubled production in recent years.
But back to Wednesday's big one-time sale…
The question that many hoped to answer for themselves was whether Westvleteren XII would be worth the cost, worth waiting in line for, and would it live up to its billing as the World's Best Beer.
Shelton Brothers sampled the biggest beers from each Trappist brewery at the end of the show and were surprisingly forthright, and as per usual comedic, even when discussing their own offerings from Westvleteren and Achel.
Their resounding conclusion?
(Note: Stift Engelszell, the world's eighth Trappist brewery opened its operations later in 2012 after the interview originally aired.)

Connolly produces a masterclass
When it came to accepting his man of the match award, Diarmuid Connolly went missing for the first time all afternoon.
The task of accepting the trophy and saying a few perfunctory words was instead performed by manager Tommy Conroy as Connolly stuck to the habit of his career and avoided media duties.
It was ironic because out on the field of play, the Dublin forward had given an exhibition in showboating, kicking 2-5.
It was Connolly's second goal with 16 minutes left that everyone was talking about as Vincent's streaked to a third AIB club football title, their second since 2008.
Vincent's were leading by four at that stage. Connolly's solo run looked to have broken down when he dropped the ball.
In an instant, he chipped the ball up into his hands with his right foot before dispatching a left footed shot into the far corner.
"We've actually seen performances like that from him before," said club colleague Ger Brennan. "In 2011, in the All-Ireland quarter-final against Tyrone, he kicked points from all over the park."

The heart of Argentina's wine industry lies in the spectacular high-altitude desert of Mendoza, which is home to its finest wineries
Mendoza is the heartland of Argentina's wine region, producing some of the world's top drops. It's an area of outstanding natural beauty, with huge stretches of vineyards guarded by the towering Andes mountains. Wine-tasting opportunities and other unique Argentine experiences like the asado - the country's traditional barbecue - are plentiful. Whether you're a wine connoisseur, a first-time wine tourist or a couple seeking a romantic pastime, Mendoza offers something for everyone.
Ready, steady, taste
Mendoza, home to most of the country's finest wineries, produces 80 per cent of Argentina's wines. The landscape is more than just stunning to the eye; it is also the reason for the outstanding quality of the wine. With little rain and searing hot days, the high altitude creates a contrast of warm days and cool nights, giving the grapes a flavour concentration and high acidity. Wines here have intense colour, heady aromas and savoury fruit flavours.
Mendoza is most famous for its Malbec, a juicy wine with black fruit and peppery flavours made to marry with the country's prized beef. Other famous reds include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Bonarda. For white wines, Mendoza is known for Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc. The region overflows with grapes and vineyards, from big internationally-known brands to boutique wineries and traditional bodegas. My favourite wineries, Catena Zapata, Achaval Ferrer and Bodega Norton, are all located in Lujan de Cuyo, which is only 25 minutes by car from Mendoza city.
Three of the best
Catena Zapata tops the list of any wine connoisseur. Its innovations in viticulture and wine-making in the 1980s revolutionised Argentina's wine industry. The wines have won many international awards and have been compared to top French brands like Haut-Brion in blind tastings. Catena's La Pyramide winery offers the first real taste of Mendoza's breathtaking scenery. The 180-degree panoramic view of the vineyards, set against the 22,000ft peak of Aconcagua, is awe-inspiring.
The tasting offers both domestic and international brands such as Angelica Zapata, Alamos and Catena Zapata and Catena Alta. The microclimate tastings, like Malbec-Malbec-Malbec, are a real treat; clones of the same grape varietals are planted at different altitudes and then blended to create one wine.
Argentina's top boutique winery is the intimate Achaval Ferrer, whose wines are consistently listed among the country's best by wine magazines throughout the world. The friendly staff offered us Malbec grapes to munch on during the chilled-out introduction in their airy boardroom, and owners Santiago Achaval and Manuel Ferrer even popped in to say hello. Wines are tasted directly from the barrel, and include the Quimera, which usually sells for over £50 a bottle in London restaurants. Others to try are Cabernet Franc (Achaval Ferrer is one of the few wineries in Mendoza to make it) and the stunning sweet Dolce. Purchase any favourite wines here, as they can be difficult to locate in your home country.
At Bodega Norton, the tour started in the vineyard, and our guide encouraged us to pick and eat grapes right off the vines! Wine connoisseurs will swoon as they discover first-hand the difference in textures and flavours between Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. But even novices will enjoy savouring the grapes, surrounded by luscious canopies of fruit, and enjoy the view of snow-capped Aconcagua underneath the hot sunshine.
We sampled a variety of wines, vintages and styles, including Malbec and Chardonnay, reserve wines and sparkling wines. They were stunning, but the best was yet to come, as we feasted on the asado - the traditional, no-holds-barred barbecue. A table was set up for us under a weeping willow tree, right next to the vineyards, and with a sweeping view of Aconcagua. Our own waiter served up a feast of meats, empanadas and other Argentinean delicacies, as well as the winery's outstanding still and sparkling wines.
Mendoza: the city
Mendoza city is a graceful place, with wide tree-lined streets, pretty squares, a vibrant terrace culture, and great nightlife. It is also a fantastic base to enjoy the region's spoils, including winery visits, mountain-climbing, white-water rafting and horseback riding.
Choose from a plethora of restaurants where you can also try most of the wines that you've just tasted at the wineries. For a traditional parillada, try Don Mario, where you'll mingle with the locals. La Marchigiana is Mendoza's top Italian restaurant, run for decades by the same family, who serve outstanding cannelloni and tiramisu. Step slightly out of town, and head to Francis Mallman 1884, an ultra-chic wine bar and restaurant that is also one of Argentina's top eateries.
Best time to go
For a true South American party, visit Mendoza during the Vendimia festival. It begins in January and culminates on the first weekend in March with an extravaganza of parades, dancing spectaculars and the crowning of the Harvest Queen. Accommodation costs around Mendoza spike around this time, so visiting just after the Vendimia weekend is also a good alternative.
Where to stay
There is accommodation to suit every budget in and around Mendoza. Quinto Rufino is a B&B in a converted villa near the trendy nightlife. Or pamper yourself in style at the celebrated Park Hyatt Hotel, on Mendoza's central plaza. For something really special, stay at the Posada Salentein in Tunuyan, 100 km south of Mendoza city, where you can go horseback riding and cycling, or simply relax with a drink overlooking the Merlot and Pinot Noir vineyards.
Top tips
Do some research before you go - try the wines and check out the wineries' websites. Find tours that also include the vineyards, as the inside of the wineries will eventually start to look the same. Visit a mix of wineries, such as a large international brand, a champagne house and a local boutique winery. Try the wines at Familia Zuccardi (rumour has it you can stomp grapes during the harvest!), Salentein, Trapiche, Luigi Bosca, and Lurton.
Mendoza wineries are spread out over five zones and as many departments, and it can be confusing to map out your visits. The best plan is to stick to one department and visit a maximum of three to four wineries a day.
You can either join group tours or organise you own. Either way, pre-booking is essential, especially if you want to visit top wineries such as Catena Zapata. Many bodegas also host asados, including Ruca Malen, which offers a five-course lunch with wine in its airy restaurant. Bodega Norton offers both a full lunch and picnics in the garden. If you do not choose an asado, bring a packed lunch along, as there is a poor choice of restaurants along the way.
If you're travelling solo, the best way to get to the wineries is by taxi, which leaves you free to enjoy the scenery as well as taste as much wine as you like (especially important if you're planning to enjoy an asado). You can book ahead with the wineries directly over email, or have your hotel help with tours, transport and asados.

Written and Directed by Kevin Smith
Mil is not what you'd call an avid Kevin Smith fan, but I do think he's a talented guy, writes pretty good dialog, and definitely gives back to his fans. And I've spent way too much time in line at the Nuart in West L.A. waiting next to shining examples of his fan base to see midnight screenings of some of his films. I'm happy to say that I think they are not going to like this film much. I think they'll consider it a sell-out. Well, good. Those people annoy me anyway, and I'd like them to all stay home in their cars. Bunch of comic-book-reading-drunken-goth-morons who are loud and unfunny for the most part. They see Kev as some sort of grungy Woody Allen or something. Which confuses me. But hey, I'm Kevin's age...and these kids are young.
So why the long preamble? I don't know, just venting, I guess. I know you're on pins and needles to find out what I thought of "Jersey Girl" so here goes....
I liked it. Yep, nice little movie. It's a story we've seen many times--a protagonist whose suddenly forced to give up his fast-paced life to wipe a baby's ass--and it ends up being the best thing that ever happened to him. I think Kevin Smith is maturing as a filmmaker, first, the look of the film is much bigger, more Hollywood you might say, but in the good sense, with help from cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond. Smith's bathroom style humor actually lends itself well to this type of story, and yes, he does tone it down a bit for a wider audience. The performances are good, even George Carlin, whose not much of an actor, managed to put a little salty one in the corner of my eye once or twice. The daughter, played by Raquel Castro, is exceptionally lovable and precocious. There's a cute scene where Affleck walks in on his daughter and a little boy showing each other their junk. Other movies have tackled that awkward moment, but Smith handles it a little better than most I think. I must also admit that I got a little misty a couple times, and some accuse me of doing that too easily, but it only happens when I am genuinely moved by something. I often expect to be moved by certain films, but if the scenes are not handled well, I don't react. So I gotta give Kevin props for that. I don't frequent his website but I can imagine the horrible accusations flying out of the keyboards of his average fan. "You sell out!" "Hollywood whore!" and whatnot...screw all yall. Let the guy make what he wants to make. Here's a test if you feel disappointed by him. Sit down and come up with a list of all the people who've disappointed you, THEN sit back and make a list of all the people YOU have disappointed. Uh-huh. It's so easy to be disappointed ain't it? RELAX. I just have to say, good job, Kevin, and I am looking forward to the Green Hornet.

It gets batter and batter
The crispy Chicken Pops and burger patties at this tiny new burger-and-fried-chicken joint are worth the trip to the outskirts of the city for junk-food junkies
Hiranandani Estate in Thane is like an oasis in the middle of a desert. A well-developed locality in itself, there's not much available outside the township. Tiny burger joint Katty'z might therefore help residents get their junk-food fix.
The menu is divided into three sections: Burgers, Fried Chicken and Wraps. You can also choose from their combo meals that include a serving of fries and a soft drink.
We opted for the Kz Veggie (Rs 50) and Kz Chicken Supreme (Rs 95). Both the vegetarian and non-vegetarian patties were superbly crisp and were worth the trip to the northern part of the city. The veggie burger, though, could have done with a little spice. The Chicken Supreme was very filling and the chicken was cooked perfectly.
Next up, we ordered the Kz Chicken Pops (Rs 50) and Veg Cheese Fingers (Rs 50 for 6 pieces). The Chicken Pops actually had lots of chicken and weren't smothered in batter, which made for quite a filling meal. We wish that they had a little more flavour. We loved the crispy outer covering of the Cheese Fingers, which gave way to a smooth, cheesy filling. Second round, please!
We sampled the Paneer Tikka Wrap (Rs 70) and Chicken Achari Tikka from the Wrap section. Both wraps fulfilled our longing for spice. The Paneer Tikka could have done even better had the smoky flavour of the cottage cheese come through. Instead, we got the usual refrigerated spicy paneer with a generous dose of creamy sauce.
The Chicken Achari Tikka, on the other hand, was wholesome and the twang of the sour achaar did wonders for the chicken.
At present, they only sell soft drinks in pet bottles, but we didn't mind the limited options, considering that Katty'z scores high on food.
At: Katty'z, 13, Flora Building, Hiranandani Estate, Thane (W).

Katty'z didn't know we were there. The Guide reviews anonymously and pays for meals.

Nigeria Investment Promotion Commission, NIPC said it has entered into collaboration with the Standards Organisation of Nigeria, SON as part of efforts to improve standards and quality of products for both local consumption and for exports.
Executive Secretary/Chief Executive of NIPC, Mrs. Uju Aisha Hassan-Baba, who dropped the hint in her presentation at the ongoing African Organisation for Standardisation, ARSO President's Forum in Abuja, yesterday.
She said the partnership between the two federal government agencies has become necessary, to create good industrial standard that are beneficial to companies and the nation's economy.
Hassan-Baba assured that in its determination to advance the nation's economy, create wealth and generate employment, the NIPC would continue to advice and advocate for policy change that will favourably affect and support investments in all the sectors.
The executive secretary pointed out that the commission maintains strategic roles with investors through the provision of aftercare services and adequate information to guide them in taking decisions.
She noted that Nigeria as the preferred investment destination in Africa has much potentials that are yet to be harnessed and therefore called on investors to consider investing in Africa's most populous nation, adding that NIPC is very prepared all the time to meet investor's demand.
Hassan-Baba explained that "as the government's investment promotion agency, the Commission collaborates with SON to ensure that genuine investors and investments ready to conform to the set standard are attracted to the country".
She further stated that the NIPC has included in its National Investment Promotion Strategy, novelty that will build on the national quality infrastructure and assist Nigeria's enterprises in becoming global competitive.
The executive secretary disclosed that the commission is putting many other strategies in place to attract more investment into the economy and encourage foreign direct investments, FDIs.
"SON is one of the government agencies located in the One-Stop-Investment Centre, OSIC at the NIPC headquarters, and NIPC coordinates the operations of the centre (OSIC) which essentially provides pre-investment services.
"OSIC (is) an investment facilitation strategy where relevant government agencies are brought tone location coordinated and streamlines to provide prompt, efficient and transparent services to investors", she stressed.
Hassan-Baba further explained that under the framework for doing business in Nigeria, NIPC ensures that companies with foreign equity, in manufacturing activities must obtain Mandatory Conformity Assessment Programme, MANCAP certification for its products from SON.
On other NIPC's strategic role to investors, she said the establishment of zonal offices to promote domestic investment and provide aftercare services, had been effective remedies.
She pointed out that the commission also provide solutions to investors' concerns like the development of the sector specific investment incentive policy aimed at eliminating as much as possible the need for special privileges and concessions, unless where it becomes extremely necessary.

Michael Melillo ploted, then lied about kidnapping
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - A Palm Beach Gardens man convicted of attempted kidnapping was sentenced on Tuesday in federal court.
Michael Melillo, 52, was sentenced to 292 months in prison by U.S. District Court Judge Daniel Hurley, according to a court official.
According to Federal Bureau of Investigation officials, Melillo and 38-year-old Pavlos Kaimacliotis of Jupiter were accused of plotting to kidnap an unidentified wealthy Palm Beach Gardens man and force his wife to pay a $20 million ransom. If the kidnapped man's wife didn't pay, the kidnappers planned to cut off her husband's fingers or hand and send her the body parts, according to a federal criminal complaint.
Kaimacliotis pleaded guilty in August 2012 to attempting to commit kidnapping and was sentenced in December to close to 10 years in prison.
Federal court documents showed that Melillo told an undercover officer that he had lost approximately $100,000 playing poker and that he needed a way to provide for his young son. Melillo's wife was not willing to speak about the allegations.
Based on informant's tips, the FBI inserted undercover agents posing as fellow kidnappers. Documents showed the agents led Melillo and Kaimacliotis to believe that the intended victim had, in fact, been kidnapped and that ransom money, in the millions, was being dropped off at Palm Beach International Airport. They were arrested later that day by federal investigators.

Suffering a cardiac event is not a sure death sentence, but time is of the essence. The sooner victims receive medical attention, the better their chances for a life-saving intervention. Some medications and therapies can even help stop a heart attack or stroke in progress. To be most effective, these therapies should be administered within one hour of the onset of symptoms.
Women account for more than half of the annual fatalities from heart attack and stroke and that their warning signs may be more subtle or differ completely from those in men. Women, for example, are more likely to experience nausea and dizziness than men are; men more often feel pain in the center of the chest.
The American Heart Association advises that you call 9-1-1 immediately if you experience or witness someone else experiencing these warning signs of heart attack and stroke:
Signs of heart attack in Women
Sudden, uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing, or pain, usually in the center of the chest that lasts for more than five minutes
Pain in the chest that radiates out to the shoulders, back, neck, jaw, stomach, or one or both arms
Shortness of breath
Lightheadedness, fainting, sweating, nausea, and vomiting
Signs of stroke in Women
Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body
Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
Sudden, severe headache with no known cause

It was 1976 when she and her little brother hopped on a boat overloaded with others to escape the only world she knew to find refuge and opportunity. They eventually made it to the United States but not before reaching Taiwan – only to be turned away – then tried their luck in Japan where they were allowed to stay for 6 months to sort out which country would be willing to accept them. The details of her final journey to the States is still a little murky, she's reluctant to talk about her experience much but when she does her voice still quiver, overwhelmed with haunting memories of a darker, more dangerous time.
My mother was only twenty four years old when she left communist Vietnam and joined the ranks of stigmatized 'Vietnamese Boat People" to change the course of her life and ultimately mine.

Earlier this year I sent out an email to a few friends about an idea I had been mulling over for the last few months. Long story short: we met, we brainstormed and we started Creating For Good, a collective of social media savvy creatives who are passionate about using our skills to raise money for causes that offer opportunity to marginalised communities at home and abroad. Since the formation of CFG we have raised over £4,200 for the charities we support through a WeLovetoBrunch instameet and an auction social.
Creating For Good Auction Social – behind the scenes
For CFG's first group fundraising event we hosted an auction for sixty people at the Hoxton Shoreditch last weekend with cakes made and donated by Julieta Lucca to benefit Breaking Barriers, a London-based charity that offers training and work placement programmes for refugees in the UK. In the weeks leading up to the event the team had been working tirelessly on securing a space, auction items and food & beverage to be served on the day. You'll get an idea from the photos below, it turned out to be a fun, heartwarming event in the backdrop of a light-filled space. I've been getting so many pats on the back for the idea of CFG but I want to give you an idea of what it took from all of us to make it happen:
- Jessica brought flowers to fill the room and put together the most beautiful fruit & cheese board for guests. She also introduced us to Mirabeau en Provence who kindly provided us with their rosé to serve at the auction.
- Ina secured us a space at the Hoxton and put together the most amazing live auction package – a Parisian getaway with Eurostar and Saint James Paris hotel.
- Mendy worked daily on updating our Instagram feed with news and auction items. She's helped us build a following of over 5,500 people organically in less than two months.
- Jess created all of our event flyers and designed our user friendly website. She'd tell you it's no big deal because Wix is an easy platform to use but I've recently had first hand experience in using it to less stellar results.
- Giulia wins the prize for getting the most amount of auction items which helped increase our ability to raise money.
- Charlotte took the below candids that captured the spirit of the event so well.
- The rest of the team: Steffi, Lena, Hannah, and Rosella have been working behind the scenes and made for a great welcoming party the day of the auction.

I shared my mother's story earlier to highlight this: she's the beneficiary of incredible support as a refugee who made it to the United States. By no means was it an easy experience for her to have left the bulk of her family behind, integrate in a completely different culture and learn a foreign language. Through a variety of non profit services and government aid she was able to take ESL courses and eventually found a long term office job from work placement programmes like Breaking Barriers. It was a long and arduous process but I can't help but look back and be amazed at how her life has turned out when the chances seemed so slim.
I'm incredibly proud that Creating for Good was able to support the meaningful work of Breaking Barriers. The £4,000 we raised from the auction will directly benefit 5 refugee women by paying for their childcare 1 day a week for 3 months while they are on paid work placement. As the daughter of a refugee I cannot tell you how big of an impact these seemingly small gestures make.
I'd also like to especially thank the following sponsors whom I've worked with for donating to the auction: Jing Tea, Innocent Juices, This is Ground and Nespresso.

Did you try using other USB drive or installing to another HD?
Tried with another USB drive. Don't have another HD to try it on
I tried with other bootloaders too, but they don't recognise the USB. Why's that?
Also could I be getting this error message because of my specs?
Still no hope...

The amount of spam caught by Akismet is amazing. But I'd rather the spam be blocked up front so it doen't happen at all. I think there is a serious flaw in the settings area for discussion.
For example - I make sure a specific post is UNCHECKED in the discussion settings so to not allow comments. But if I go to the same post and click on any IMAGE - a gallery opens opens and that allows for comments. It even says trackbacks and pings are closed but you can comment.
This where your serial spammers are working, and creating all that waste of time. The main culprits are lista de emails as everyone knows.
Is there a way to close off the availability of comments via the media attachments - or is this a flaw that you should take a good look at in order to fix this annoyance.
You can easily test this on any blog.
The blog I need help with is jmmnewaov2.wordpress.com.

DOES Huddersfield really have a secret underground tunnel system?
It's a question that is mystifying students who have developed a website about the town.
They examine myths, legends and stories about the town on their fact-filling site.
But one puzzle remains.
Is there an underground tunnel system that stretches between St Paul's and St Peter's churches and on to Huddersfield Technical College?
Student Jimmy Stead said: "This was the most frustrating story of all.
"All inquiries seemed to lead to a dead end, although everyone we spoke to was really helpful, especially the manager of O'Neill's - where we practically had the walls out."
The website - www.huddslegends. co.uk - was due to be launched today.
Jimmy and fellow students Jon Edwards and Paul Duke and Richard Lawson have developed it in conjunction with Kirklees Council's Culture and Leisure Services and Moldgreen's Tolson Museum.
The subjects covered include stories about Storthes Hall mental hospital, Castle Hill and Robin Hood.
Jenny Salton, of Tolson Museum, said: "The students have worked hard and we are pleased with the results.
"A website is the ideal setting for a guide of this sort. We hope it might stimulate interest among the public."
Jimmy said: "I lost count of my hours in the library. We had an excellent response from local people."

A Brazilian doom metal festival. For many years, this idea was a kind of utopia, but since 2008, with plenty of hard work and force of will from those involved in the scene interested in seeing it increase, that became a reality, in the form of Eclipse Doom Fest, that seeks to gather national doom bands and give them the time needed for them to play a good set, instead of squeezing it in a short time span between bands of faster styles. Since last year, the festival started to happen in the city of São Paulo, and this year's edition was, with no shadow of doubt, the best event I attended to in 2013, and it is at least among the top five in my life. What made this event so much special? That feeling of union that I have not felt in such large scale for a long time. It was great to meet personally people I only knew via internet, or even to be able to hold longer conversations with people I already knew, but in other occasions had been able only to exchange some few words. Add to that a booth for sales of high quality material (though the quantity was unfortunately very limited), a venue with a very picturesque atmosphere (Hole Club deserves its name! A subterranean space with no interference of external light whatsoever) and bands of the highest quality, which already have their names engraved in the history of the style in the country, and you can't help being amazed with the night. But I'm being subjective here. Let's proceed to the objective points of the event:
|Soul's Silence (photo by Cielinszka)
The night was started with Soul's Silence, from São Paulo, presenting a set mixing themes from their first demo and newer material. It is interesting to notice how in a live situation the band's sound presents a very clear element of the 70's sound, at some moments event sounding somewhat psychedelic. They started warming everyone up and serving as a preview to the level of quality that we would see through the night, never losing the energy in a single moment.
|Bullet Course & Cielinszka (photo by Julie Sousa)
After an interval to check the merch booth (and to get an Amarna Sky CD, to be reviewed soon), the stage was taken by Bullet Course, headed by the bassist/vocalist Daiton Arkn, (one of the people in charge for the organization of the event, by the way), which after an intro with heavy guitars as a counterpoint to a cello played by Cielinszka, collaborator of Doom Metal BR and head at Persephone Dark Clothes, delighted us with an energetic death doom with a sound somewhat faster than the average for the style. Their sound is full of quality and personality, it is actually difficult to draw parallels with other known names. I really hope to hear more from this band, they pleased me a lot.
|Lachrimatory (photo by Julie Sousa)
Another break and more time to have some talk with friends who were at the same time old and new, and soon the stage was taken again, this time by Lachrimatory, the band which I was more than a month eager to see live. And they did not disappointed in any moment. Indeed, to this moment, I'm still impressed with their sound. A completely eerie doom, with passages influenced by the great names of the 90's (specially My Dying Bride) and the darkest shapes possible of funeral doom. Throw into it the fully dedicated performance from the vocalist/keyboarder Ávila Schultz (it is hard to see such an expressive keyboarder) and we have here (not to take any merit from the other bands) the high point of the night.
|HellLight (photo by Cielinszka)
Finally, for a closing, we had the one that is certainly the most active doom metal band in São Paulo (I dare not say from Brazil, tought I have an impression it may be true), HellLight, that presented itself in their best shape, showing the difference it makes to play in a venue with gear able to endure the intensity of their sound. I don't remember, in any occasion, having heard Fábio's clean vocal lines with so much clarity. And to top that, they came with a renewed set, full of material from their upcoming album, No God Above, No Devil Below. Funeral doom of the highest quality, with long songs and a balance between clean vocals (at times doubled between Fábio and the keyboarder Rafael) and growls.
The overall balance was extremely positive, far beyond my best optimistic expectations. The structure was great, the bands too, and the same for the human element. There is nothing else to add that may not sound redundant, only that I expect anxiously for next year's edition, and hope to see more and more bands from the whole Brazil showing the power of the style around here, against all expectations.

Oh, December…a time to reflect on the year that has gone by, bake holiday goodies, and try to catch up on reading all the freaking AMAZING books that came out over the last 12 months! I think it's safe to say 2012 was a banner year for debut authors and I've been trying to think of a way to say thank you to all of the readers, book bloggers, and librarians who have maintained a steady level of enthusiasm for us throughout the year.
The other group I need to thank is The Apocalypsies. I never expected a bunch of competing debut authors to be so warm, understanding, and supportive during what sometimes truly felt like an apocalyptic year. Our group took 2012 by storm and our follow-up books will continue crashing series and standalones into 2013, 2014, 2015…and beyond! I'm honored to have shared this experience with all of you.
It seems appropriate to offer one last giveaway in 2012 that gives readers a chance to discover the books of my fellow debut authors.
Please go to the Apocalypsies website to review our 150+ titles, then come back here and enter to win the Apocalypsies book of your choice! That's right–ANY book (as long as it's an Apocalypsies debut)!
This giveaway is international, so enter with abandon!
Thank you for making 2012 a year to remember for me, THROUGH TO YOU, and my fellow debut authors. <3

Bisphenol-A is also known as 4,4'-Isopropylidenediphenol, at room temperature it occurs as a white powder or in flakes.
The total amount of bisphenol-A manufactured within the EU, based upon submissions to CEFIC by the manufacturers, of 2005 was estimated at approximately 1,150,000 tonnes/year mainly produced to manufacture polycarbonate, witch is widely used plastic.[1]
In water bisphenol A is moderately soluble, 300 mg/l, and considered to have a moderate tendency to adsorb to suspended particles and sediments. It has a very low tendency to evaporate into the atmosphere where most of it will be degraded in less than a day. In water and soils it is rather stable, althoug it can readily be biodegraded. It only takes 3 to 8 days to half it's environmental concentrations by biodegradation. 100% removal of environmental contamination can occur within 17 days.
Bisphenol A has a low tendency to bioaccumulate.
Bisphenol a has been shown to exhibit endocrine disrupting effects. In gastropods concentrations bellow 100 µg/l has been shown cause reduced penis sizes in males and enhanced oocyte production in females. The latter results in an increased embryo production at low bisphenol A concentrations. This effect has even been demonstrated in some gastropod species at concentrations of only 100 ng/l. [1] It demonstrates a moderate acute toxicity towards aquatic species. Most species start dying at concentrations above 1 mg/l. [2]

We told you several months back about Facebook executive Chris Kelly and his plans to run for state attorney general. Now Kelly, the privacy officer at Facebook and former education adviser in the Clinton administration, has made it official, and announced (where else) on his Facebook page.
This makes the race on the Dem side ever more interesting: S.F. District Attorney Kamala Harris was a real presence at the state Democratic convention last weekend, both in the caucuses and in her Netroots party at Mason's. Los Angeles city attorney Rocky Delgadillo was seen in deep conversation with San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, a gubernatorial candidate, in the hallways. And Asssemblyman Ted Lieu is another hopeful who's done well in fundraising.
But Kelly — who we also saw working it, bigtime, in the Dem crowds this weekend — has something going for him that the others don't: He's not only wealthy, he has a deep inside track on Facebook, whose subscriber base makes it the size of a small country.
Now it gets interesting.
