IRSC's Virtual Business Incubator
Entrepreneurship equals recovery
Tom Kindred walked from his office to the Indian River State College Virtual Incubator he directs. Kindred explained, "Entrepreneurship equals recovery and the best way to ensure the economy recovers is to support entrepreneurs. Indian River State College does that here at the Entrepreneurship Development Institute."
"The Virtual Incubator, is a low-cost way to give start-ups the facilities and services they need but can't necessarily get if they go it alone," he said.
It doesn't look entirely virtual. The college provides workspaces with phones, computers, printer, and fax; high-tech prototyping laboratories, collaborative space, client meeting rooms and planning areas; and even a room with two-way mirrors where marketing experts hold focus groups for start-ups. The only thing missing is the water cooler.
"Even though entrepreneurs in our virtual incubator program often work at home or in the field, we provide shared workspace because we want them to have collisions," Kindred said. "Through collaboration and collision, we may spawn something new."
Collaborating, colliding
Currently, 15 pre-launch start-ups are collaborating and colliding, sharing advice and brainstorming sessions, Kindred said. They are also collaborating and colliding with Small Business Development Center consultants, CEO mentors and with on-campus college professors.
"I can walk down the sidewalk and be in the office of a business expert," said Kindred.
"They have a gung-ho mentality; every department is eager to help us succeed," said John Boyle, an incubator member just back from pitching his Multaply mobile proximity marketing app to famous brands.
Boyle said the college created online training for his nationwide sales force and conducted professional focus groups for a small fee. His company has low-cost office space at IRSC and plans to use their Kight Center green screen room to shoot commercials.
"It's a really sophisticated environment," agreed incubator member Herb Graham, who pitches his Focus Technologies automation software to municipal decision-makers in high-tech conference rooms. "And Tom has some good contacts. I'm talking to people I may never have met if I'd just walked in the front door."
Venture capitalists
Kindred recently took Boyle, Graham and Incubator graduate Laurel Bennett, CEO of medical records innovator PHR Solutions, to present to venture capitalists. "That was a surprise," Graham said. "I was surprised to be in front of venture capitalists and angel investors so soon."
"I've started several companies in my life," Graham said. "And I wish the
incubator had been available for all of them."

Surf Report Info
Region: Seaford
Reporters location:
Coastalwatch surf reporters are the saltiest locals around. Part fish, part shark, part human, they live for the waves and are usually more local than the locals. They'll be up before dawn waiting for first light to reveal the days surf conditions and can sense a change of wind from a sparrows fart. Each reporter covers a region of coastline which includes many number of surf spots and beaches. Please consider there may be possible variations between this report and your local spot due to differences in orientation to the coast and any local idiosyncrasies that may also effect the swell and weather patterns.

Today's rating - Average
Winds are light from the ESE and conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early, but still on the small side. Surf is around shin-high on the reefs and very full with the high tide just turning. The dropping tide won't change very much, although the beachies will probably offer some tiny peelers for beginners through tide at lunch. There may be a small lift in swell on the incoming tide after lunch, but SSW winds at around 15 knots will make it bumpy. A late sou-easter will clean it up in the evening.

Ross Ventrone reaches injury settlement. Return possible down the road - 0 Comments
Ross Ventrone, aka, Mr. Transaction, received an injury settlement from the team, according to a source.
That prompted the defensive back's release from the team on Friday. And because the team was able to reach a settlement within a five-day window of placing Ventrone on injured reserve, he is now eligible to return to the Patriots later in the season, if both parties so choose.
Per league rules, Ventrone is allowed to return six weeks after the length of the injury settlement, which we don't have the specifics on at this time.

Tuscan Cooking Class and Dinner in Florence
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Tuscan Cooking Class and Dinner in Florence. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
My daughter and I took this cooking class our first night in Florence and it was a great way to learn Italien cooking and enjoy meeting other tourists. The recipes were delicious, plenty to eat and wine to drink and nice company to enjoy it with. The chefs were terrific. A little crowded with 20 people but we also took a pastry baking class with them in the afternoon and had a private lesson. Same chef and he was great. We made biscotti and cannoli so and we loved it!
Great fun and a wonderful meal. Highly recommended.
My wife and I had a wonderful time at the class - one of the highlights of our trip. Made an awesome chicken cacciatore and fresh ravioli dinner. The chefs were very funny and personable, and we had fun eating afterward. One of the best meals we had in Italy!
This was well worth the time and money! You have four to six people who you cook with and there is plenty of room. The chefs do a great job in showing you and helping you if necessary and salvaging if you really mess up. Everyone at all the tables eat together at the end of the night and your with people from literally everywhere. Oh yes, they supply you with plenty of wine. We made some great friends that night and have been in contact long since our trip was over. We highly recommend this!
The Cooking Class was great! This was one of our favorite experiences from our two week trip to Italy. The chefs who guided us were both hilarious and helpful. After cooking a four course meal which took about two hours, we enjoyed the fruits of our labor for another hour while drinking wine. All in all, the cooking class was a lot of fun and also a good value. If you're looking for an enjoyable and unique evening in Florence, be sure to not miss this experience! Highly recommended.
A must experience in Italy
Alessandro was fabulous as the instructor for our group. We met some people who we never knew before and will likely keep in touch with now because of the cooking class. Very well organized, everyone had the chance to participate, the time to eat the meal was very leisurely with no pressure to hurry up. The food we prepared actually worked! It was an experience we will recommend to anyone coming to Florence.
Daughter and her Bo went to this one and loved it. Clean with great chefs and good ingredients. Very nice.
Great class! The instructor was fun, affable and knowledgable. It was a beginner's course, but still a fun evening. Probably wouldn't recommend for more advanced cooks, but still a really fun evening.
One of our favorite evenings of our whole trip. Met nice people, instruction was good but not overbearing, had tons of fun, and absolutely loved the menu. We want to do it again. My husband and 20 year old daughter loved it too.
Assesandro was as good as the feedback I previously read. At first I was disappointed when I walked into the crowded room but that quickly disappeared when we where grouped into our cooking teams and got started. One of the most memorable things mom and I did in Florence. Food and fun!
Best experience of our Italy trip! The food we made was delicious. The chefs were fun and loved to teach. Our family 2 teenagers and parents would recommend this class without hesitation.
This was an amazing evening. The food was fantastic, the people were fun, the chefs were friendly and loved people. Francesco was so personable and such a sweetheart. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Would not hesitate to do this tour again, or recommend it to anyone visiting beautiful Florence.
Loved this. Learned to make pasta from scratch! Good was great and plenty of wine!
out tour guide Angelo was incredible , kept everyone on schedule and very infirmstive. The views and food was great all the way through. Highly recommend
This class was the highlight of our Florence visit. It was so much fun, and the dinner was delicious! We met so many nice people, and our teacher was awesome. We made four dishes - from scratch, and were given the recipes to take with us. So happy that I now know how to make crepes and have some new ideas on what to put in them! We ate our dinner including a delicious wine in the wine cellar below the kitchen, and the atmosphere was so nice. We loved this class and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Florence!
My sister and I had a ball. What a wonderful experience. Great chef and very friendly helpers. Loved this class. Will do it again if I ever go back to Florence.
Great fun! Our team of four cooked and ate all four courses. Lots of good wine too. Clear instructions and help from cooking school staff. My daughter said it was the highlight of our trip to Italy.
We had a fantastic time at our cooking class! We also had a better time eating what we made! We made gnocchi and tiramisu which were both outstanding. The teachers were all awesome!
Very fun! Wish we had our own stations though! We had to share with another couple, so 4 people to a kitchen. The food was excellent, well worth the for what you get!! Nice experience too but def for beginners so I let my fiance do most of the work so he could learn! :
The cooking class was so much fun! We works in small groups to create a fabulous meal. I would highly recommend doing this while in Florence!
This tour was amazing!
It was a tremendous amount of fun!!! Our chef instructor ... was just great and engaging with all of us. We had 3 groups of 4 at the 3 cooking stations and that was just the right # of people. I have to say, he gave us "involved tasks" and it was truly a "real" cooking lesson. We all felt at ease with him and his assistants were great too. Just a minor point - I got thirsty about partway through our cooking, and one of the assistants brought over glasses for all of us and a bottle of water.
Delicious food, knowledgeable instructor and an overall great time. Highly recommend this!
great way for our family to spend our last night in Florence! Francisco was great!

So why then are there so many stupid lawyers?
How difficult is the section on greed?
Which is nice.
Silly research written about by silly researchers. Studying of any kind sharpens the mind; the LSAT has no unique claim in this regard.
I took the LSAT out of curiosity; did not study for the exam; drank a lot of beer the night before; woke up the next morning and checked my calender to find, to my chagrin, that I had to go take the LSAT; nailed the LSAT; got admitted to law school on the first try; and, after graduation, had lots of fun kicking the crap out of snooty Harvard Law grads in various courtrooms around the U.S.
If a dummy like me could do all that, there is no reason to believe that studying for, taking, or passing the LSAT is anything special, whatever the ABA and law schools may urge to the contrary.
Well folks ..now you know how money is wasted in this country in doing this type of idiotic research that has absolutely no value. I hope these researchers did not get money from one of the tax payer funded government agency like CDC or HHS or something like that.
Why all the negative energy? You need to learn how to activate that portion of your brain that controls this kind of behavior.
I have no doubt the study is on to something, despite the genius who wrote above. Many law school grads believe that their brains were rewired in law school, and we now think of our brains as grids. Any movement off the grid of logic sends off alarm bells instantly. The way we think now, compared to the way we thought as undergrads, or as grads (not in law school) is totally different. It is logical.
I have returned to alumni events after practicing law and discovered, to my dismay, that the professors are not really as smart as I thought they were. I take them on, and discover that they are not clear thinkers; they still think the way people in the liberal arts are trained to think. But when they have to defend a position they have taken, and defend it against someone who has been through law school and had their brain rewired, there is no contest. Not ever.
Actually attending law school is proof positive that you cannot do basic math or even research on your job prospects upon graduation.
$150,000 to $200,000 in studend loans for a degree that is worthless?
Are you serious?
45,000 law school graduates per year.
Over half will NEVER get a job as a lawyer BECAUSE THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH JOBS !!!

"We played fairly well and I made an incredible mistake on the third goal, but I think we can win in Ukraine," Riise told the Italian media.

Man has always been drawn to the discovery of alien worlds and planets. And this urge has reached its zenith thanks to astronomy and travel to alien planets.
Astronomy adds a whole new dimension to the scientific impulse to discover and conquer other planets and systems beyond earth's realm. Astronomy allows scientists to not only carry out earth-based observations of planets such as Mercury. It also provides the basis for the continual discovery of new galaxies and unknown planets. Astronomy has made huge advances, due in part to the exploration of Mercury. innovations-report provides continuous coverage of the general advances being made in astronomy, as well as those specific to the discovery of Mercury, in continuously updated articles and scientific reports about astronomy, Mercury and other planets and galaxies.
innovations-report encompasses a comprehensive astronomy database filled with a rich assortment articles and reports on all areas of science, research and innovations. This of course includes a large selection of documents on physics and astronomy. Whether it's achievements in astronomy, the discovery of new planets or progress in the journey to Mercury, innovations-report provides readers all of the latest developments from numerous independent research sources on the subjects of "Mercury", "planets" and general astronomy.
Apart from finding the right documents and sources covering technical advances in astronomy, readers can also learn about the findings and thought processes of other disciplines (philosophy for instance) that are actively examining astronomy and its approaches, as well as plans for journeys to planets like Mercury. The database contains a large selection of free information and articles covering basic issues ranging from "How far is Mercury from earth? " to the composition of Mercury and other planets. The path to the various planets, be it Mars, Pluto or Mercury, is not necessarily light years removed. A visit to innovations-report leads the reader to remote worlds of astronomy, alien planets and galaxies, planets related to Mars and Mercury, through the Milky Way and into black holes. Or simply put, through the entire cosmos of astronomy.
Determining the weight of a planet like Mercury would appear to be a difficult undertaking. After all, it's not as simple as placing a planet on a scale, whether it's Mercury or some other planet. Such aspects are nevertheless a part of astronomy. With innovations-report.com, readers can get an exciting look at the world of astronomy, Mercury and other planets. Among other information, you can find reports that explain how researchers go about calculating the weight and dimensions of Mercury and other planets. Astronomy does not involve dreaming. Instead, it has more to do with applying methods and strategies from the field of physics. The distance to the planets is a constant challenge for researchers. Those with an interest in astronomy can rely on innovations-report to discover how scientists tackle these challenges, what knowledge they have gained about planets such as Mercury and the progress toward journeys to other planets.
This area deals with the fundamental laws and building blocks of nature and how they interact, the properties and the behavior of matter, and research into space and time and their structures.
innovations-report provides in-depth reports and articles on subjects such as astrophysics, laser technologies, nuclear, quantum, particle and solid-state physics, nanotechnologies, planetary research and findings (Mars, Venus) and developments related to the Hubble Telescope.
Physicists have wondered in recent years if they could control how atoms interact using light. Now they know that they can, by demonstrating games of quantum billiards with unusual new rules.

Many of you will remember them from your physics lessons at school: often represented as colourful clouds or balloons, electron orbitals provide information on the whereabouts of the electrons in atoms and molecules. Scientists from the University of Graz, Forschungszentrum Jülich, and the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt have now succeeded in experimentally recording these structures in all three dimensions. They achieved this by further developing a method they had already applied two years ago to make these orbitals visible in two dimensions. Their findings have now been published in the scientific journal Nature Communications.
In quantum physics, electrons behave both as particles and as waves. The wave nature can be described by the spatial wave function, the orbital. "Orbitals...05.10.2015 | Read more

Self-driving cars will be on our streets in the foreseeable future. In Graz, research is currently dedicated to an innovative driver assistance system that takes over control if there is a danger of collision. It was nature that inspired Dr Manfred Hartbauer from the Institute of Zoology at the University of Graz: in dangerous traffic situations, migratory locusts react around ten times faster than humans. Working together with an interdisciplinary team, Hartbauer is investigating an affordable collision detector that is equipped with artificial locust eyes and can recognise potential crashes in time, during both day and night.

Dr. Dintiman Testifies at House Hearing on Telemedicine
On Thursday, July 31, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. the House Committee on Small Business held a hearing titled, "Telemedicine: A Prescription for Small Medical Practices?"
We offer a full range of medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology services in the Northern Virginia area. Our mission is to provide superior medical skin care in a professional, compassionate, and patient friendly environment. All physicians and physician assistants are board certified and specialize in the latest medical and cosmetic procedures.
2014 Top Doctors
Congratulations to both Dr. Dintiman and Dr. Tadros on being awarded Top Docs!
Northern Virginia Magazine asked all the doctors in Northern Virginia who, in their expert opinion, should be dubbed a Top Doctor, and also took the process a step further than peer nominations. They worked with nine local hospitals, including Children's National Medical Center, and Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group, and asked them to put together a panel of head doctors to discriminatively look at doctors with privileges at their hospital. Each panel nominated doctors based on all the internal tools they are privy to: internal evaluations, patient reviews, as well as overall quality of care (patient access, training, unblemished records and how the doctor works with other staff).

Julio Franco update
The story Franco tells is that he'd like to spend the next 10 years managing in Japan, then 10 years managing in America, then three more years in a front office somewhere. At 80, he says, he'd be content to retire to a remote hillside somewhere, to grow his own food, make his own medicine and drink his matcha. The gap between that dream and this reality doesn't seem to matter to him. He's playing baseball.

Tangled Up In Blue - The Jays pull away in the AL East
For most of last weekend's four-game series between Toronto and New York, the different levels of the new plutocrat's paradise in the Bronx were soaked pretty thoroughly in blue. There was singing and bell-ringing. Out on the field, there was a pretty decisive pounding handed out by the Jays and the likely end of the last pennant race in baseball.

What's a Most Valuable Player? – The Hardball Times
I agree 100% with Dave that context matters when we are talking about the MVP. As I've mentioned before on this site, WAR is a great overall stat. Other than a general ranking, it's not something that people should be using in MVP arguments. Unfortunately, it's also not perfectly suited for a "best player" arguments as well because, although it eliminates a certain amount of context, it doesn't eliminate enough.

Menopause Health Center
Menopause and Perimenopause - Home Treatment
A healthy lifestyle can help you manage menopause symptoms. It can also help lower your risk for heart disease, osteoporosis, and other long-term health problems.
- If you smoke, stop smoking to reduce hot flashes and long-term health risks.
- Exercise regularly to promote both physical and emotional health.
- Limit alcohol intake to reduce menopause symptoms and long-term health risks.
- Make healthy eating a priority. Cut back on simple sugars and caffeine, which can make menopause symptoms worse. You'll not only feel better but may also prevent long-term health problems.
- Pay attention to how the emotional side of menopause is affecting you. Have a support network, and seek help as needed.
- Make sure you get enough calcium and vitamin D. Eat foods that are rich in calcium, and take calcium and vitamin D supplements. This can help lower your risk of osteoporosis.
- Improve bladder control with regular Kegel exercises.
To manage hot flashes, try keeping your environment cool, dressing in layers, and managing stress.
To improve vaginal dryness and muscle tone, try using a vaginal lubricant and doing Kegel exercises regularly.
