Funding Canceled
Funding for this project was canceled by the project creator on August 20, 2014.
Momensity is like saying, "What's so cool about you?". The app creates a highlight reel of your life as it happens & shares it.
About this project
"To make the most out of your connections, you need to try Momensity for once at least. ." - Madhurima Nag, The Gadget Flow
The app only shares the data you want to be matched against.
What is the MOMENSITY app?
Momensity is a social connection app which, if given permission, pulls in information from your Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Google account organizes it looking for patterns and adds Momensity app usage data so when meeting new people ( whom do not have to have the app ) it compares their life to yours and suggests what you'd be most interested to know and value about the other person in a few key areas Career, Professional Connections, Talents and a more in-depth overview of common ground, how they may support you in their life the points of relevance on how the app arrived there...
The entire exchange takes about 10 - 15 seconds depends on signal strength of your mobile device.
Does this only work if the other person has the momensity app?
No. The app works with Android, iPhone, and Windows phones and when you try to share your Momensity with someone they are prompted to download the app and the app pulls their information in from Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social accounts organizes it and compares it into a Momensity Exchange Card (see below) and shows you what you have in common and other ways to engage each other. Takes on average 10 - 15 seconds depending on phone signal strength to internet.
How does the app know what I want to know about other people?
We have built a netflix-like search algorithm that uses your professional, personal, social and commerce-related data in your other social accounts and Momensity app usage data to predict what you'd be interested to know about people you meet in real-time - takes about 5 - 10 seconds and you get to see it all in an Exchange Card.
Exchange Cards hold your life experiences, talents, resume, passions and more...
Exchange Cards are Momensity profiles
that are created during
registration and with your permission can be made even more valuable by
gathering data from your various social accounts like Facebook,
Linkedin, Twitter and more.
We believe that everyone has deep value and is multi-dimensional but usually when you meet someone new the conversation only reveals 1 or 2 dimensions of who each of you really are. A missed opportunity.
Momensity has two core functions
during social engagements, you walk-up to people and let your phones (via Momensity Exchange Cards) do the small talk it takes about 5 - 10 seconds then both people get a heads-up of possible conversation points like what you have in common, mutual ways of supporting one another in projects and other tasks, and opportunities to exchange in social shopping and other commerce.
outside of social engagements, Exchange Cards can be searched and referenced to reveal new opportunities for engagement and connection. See the video below to see how the Momensity app works as a tool to reconnect and stay engaged:
Exchange Cards® At a Glance:
PROFILE PHOTO GRID: During registration we ask that you upload 3 photos to show sides of yourself people may not expect.
DIG BELOW THE SURFACE to see your new friend's resume, connections, talents.
SMALL TALK, NO MORE; with Momensity at your side you will always know what to talk about and how you connect with any and everyone you meet
DYNAMIC ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE is always working in the background to discover new ways for you to connect and engage with the people you know. As your friends, family and colleagues grow so does the opportunities to connect - Exchange Card® are a glimpse of interpersonal opportunity.
You can limit what can be shown to the people you meet by electing to make them a part of your FRIEND COMMUNITY or FOLLOWER COMMUNITY.
For example, after meeting Emilia Clarke she decides to make you a FRIEND. This is Emilia's momensity:
Another talking point, Momensity reveals is where someone has worked, revealing employment opportunities, expertise, and knowledge that could possibly help you in some way.
You would also be able to review Emilia's Career history
On Momensity, don't just tell us you have a talent; show us! You can upload 30 second videos to show case your talents.
When Emilia share's her Exchange Card she also shares the fact she is a commercial actress; yet another way to connect and engage her.
During testing we found it less important to know who a person's friends are but rather more valuable to learn where a person has contacts.
The next time you need to interact with an organization or business you will know who may have an inside connection to help you.
Looking at Emilia's Connections, you can see where has the following contacts:
Philip Morris USA
Department of State
The College Board
State of Virginia
American Red Cross

Helpful for Everyone
Momensity is the perfect "life-partner app" for everyone! It grows with you and is always trying to anticipate your needs in order to match you with the right people that you need each and every moment of your life.
We plan to release the version for Android and Iphone mobile devices in November 2014, and it will be compatible with ICS 4.0 and later OS's. Windows phones in January 2015.
Who We Are
Momensity mobile app development was started five year ago. Our founder, actually filed for a patent in 2006! We have iterated over 3 major changes including branding through 10,000 person to person market tests, to bring you Momensity in an as polished and innovative form as we could. 2014 is the year we show you our passion.
MOMENSITY T-Shirts
Check them out! These come with $10 pledges, and are offered as a standalone option.
We have some great new items for you, all branded with the Momensity logo:
Limited Edition T-Shirts White (Male or Female)
Designing and programming applications is a complex and continuous process that requires a lot of funding. The money funded we will use to primarily to finish development which we need about 50 days and $10,000 to complete and begin marketing and promotions - which includes a $15,000 national roadshow demonstrations (tradeshows, conferences, exhibitions, meetups)
Risks and challenges
Our team is working hard to meet the deadlines of our roadmap, but there are certain issues that may take place:
1. Surely we have a beta prototype of our app, but it is still in the development process and we don't exclude unpredictable issues. It may take time to solve them.
2. App Store and Google Play reviews usually take up to 14 business days after submission. If they ask us to make changes the release may be postponed. We will make sure that all qualifications meet Apple's and Google's standards for quicker approval time!
3. If there is a delay in the release of Android version, it may take more time to deliver rewards for backers who has Android devices.
You may find all project updates on our Kickstarter page. We are open for communication, please feel free to ask questions.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
You can limit what people you meet learn about you by electing to make them a part of your FRIEND COMMUNITY (full access) or FOLLOWER COMMUNITY (limited access).
FOLLOWERS are only permitted to see the @ A GLANCE section of your Exchange Card.
The app seems to be moving in a lot of directions, the dating portion and the selling portion just made it a little confusing/overwhelming for me. Why are they included as features?
You do not have to use every part of the app...during market trials. People used Momensity at parties and bars to date.
The store portion was an alpha user request, 6500 requests out of 10,000+ user tests in fact. We found that people liked the idea of their phone promoting their side-projects and businesses especially for those who sold Avon, Mary Kay, insurance, girl scout cookies, did massages, had eBay stores, hairstylists and yard work - just to name a few; so we gave them the store option and the Momensity marketplace was born.
Yes, we have tested with 10,000+ people over 3 years

Close Tweet0 Share0 Comment0 Share0 Share0 Stumble It0 Print0 More SI Wire Report: Clippers will now target Doc Rivers first, then Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce by Brett LoGiurato Email Posted: Fri Jun. 21, 2013 The Clippers will try to target Doc Rivers first before moving on to a potential trade for Kevin Garnett. (Elsa/Getty Images)Stymied by NBA commissioner David Stern's public rebuke of a planned mega-trade with the Boston Celtics, the Los Angeles Clippers are now planning on pursuing a trade for Celtics head coach Doc Rivers alone.ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne and Marc Stein reported Thursday night that the Clippers will first target Rivers and then "roll the dice" on acquiring forwards Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce later.The Clippers are prepared for the possibility that they will end up with only Rivers, according to the report, because they believe acquiring Rivers would at least convince star point guard Chris Paul to stay in Los Angeles.From the report:The Clippers' new challenge, sources say, is thus twofold. They must offer enough in compensation to persuade Boston to let Rivers go — which would likely cement the signature of star guard Chris Paul on a new contract when he becomes a free agent — and then hope any subsequent trade agreement they pursue for Garnett is ultimately approved by the league as a separate transaction not contingent on the hiring of Rivers.On Thursday, Stern noted concerns of earlier versions of the potential Clippers-Celtics blockbuster, which included Rivers along with Garnett, Clippers center DeAndre Jordan and multiple draft picks.According to reports, the two teams would have tried to get around a rule banning an outright "trade" of a coach by making two separate deals. One would send Garnett to Los Angeles for Jordan and draft picks or other compensation in an indirect exchange for Rivers.Stern told ESPN Radio in two separate interviews on Thursday, however, that he would not approve such a trade construction."The teams are aware that the collective bargaining agreement doesn't authorize trades involving coaches' contracts," he said. Later, Stern told ESPN's Stephen A. Smith: "If you think those [deals], at this point having been all over the media for the last week, are separate transactions, when you get back from Miami, Stephen A., I have a bridge that I would very much enjoy selling to you."

For the past two seasons, all anyone in the city of Utica, N.Y., can talk about are the Comets.
In their homes, at their schools, in the workplace, the Comets dominate the conversation. Around town, business windows are adorned with newspaper inserts proclaiming, "WE WANT THE CUP." Their home ice, the Utica Memorial Auditorium, sold out 27 times in the regular season and all 13 games in the Calder Cup Playoffs. Buildings light up blue and green at night, and office windows are coordinated to spell out "Comets" once the sun goes down.
In Utica, the Comets are at the heart of what makes the city tick, and Vancouver Canucks prospect Jake Virtanen learned this almost immediately.
"The first game when I got to Utica was pretty cool. I wasn't sure what to expect, but when I got there it was just unbelievable," Virtanen said recently in an interview with radio station TSN 1040 in Vancouver. "The fans were unbelievable, and the atmosphere. … They're behind our team, and it definitely gives the guys momentum to go out there and work hard."

see new rappers? you dont have to dumb down to be dope. keep murderin em Chance. top 10 new rappers easy
So cold.
This nigga sounds like early Em. Very animated. Don't know how to feel about this guy yet.
his eyes are far apart like brandy's lol dope record though
he looks like a giant bug haha
Very funzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Pretty good, just not my fav type of rap.
Omg, please tell me this was his diss back to Drake for what he said in Draft Day. Chance said "You don't know me? Then stay the F*cK out my mouth." Murdered it.
Dude this is about a year old.
I just realized that. He did say a long time ago "No Drake, but I get my Trey on". I dont think he likes Drake at all.
See this is that dope shit, If Chance keep making shit like this, then he will be one of my favorite mcs.
this was soo dope! felt like 10 day alot, really tight!
Yeah this was some good shit I mean I like Acid Rap too but 10 day felt more classic and sentimental and I don't like how his new fans are just hypebeasts who only listen to Acid Rap because it's more for party and has drug refrences
There is no fucking new talent where are the fucking ice cubes, 2pacs, big l's, rakims of 2014? Is there some rule that hip hop must be killed by all these fucking faggot rappers?
I'm old school and this kid is refreshing as fuck ..I cant understand why you would call this "faget music". Anyway each to there own !
Or maybe your just to simple to understand good music, how can a supposed fan of Tupac not appreciate a song like this. If it's trap(which I hate) you'll say it's to stupid and when it's lyrical you call em faggets. Maybe you just need to get your head out of the 90's and stop comparing to what your nostalgic with, because nothing will ever be better than what you grew up with. As you see no one ever goes " when I grew up music sucked, now we have good music" and that's because nostalgia is the biggest factor in your likes and dislike. So I can't force you to like anything, but I thing you can at least try to appreciate it instead of calling it "faget music".
Just accept reality, hip hop in this decade belongs to the faggots.
just now this is off @THEMpeoplemusic Smokebreaks #IV soundclould,com/thempeoplemusic
Another reason to be excited for Chance's next project.
I'm making over $7k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do... www.workbarr.com

Elle Fanning Looks Exactly Like Sleeping Beauty At Maleficent Premiere
It looks like Elle Fanning was inspired very literally my her character in Maleficent. She showed up at the movie's premiere yesterday looking exactly like Princess Aurora, aka Sleeping Beauty! From the gorgeous way that her lilac Elie Saab gown falls, to the choker accessory, the actress is the princess' doppelganger! The only difference is that Elle's off-the-shoulder gown is short sleeved, and she wore her hair up, instead of in a princessy blow out.
What do you think of Elle's royal look?

Movie Info
The spirit of the mega-hit Ghostbusters (1984) is intentionally recalled with this effects-heavy sci-fi comedy from the same director, Ivan Reitman, co-starring Dan Aykroyd and debuting on the 17th anniversary of the earlier film's release. When a meteor bearing single-celled organisms crashes to the Earth, the life forms are initially confined to a cave. Before long the creatures are evolving at an exponentially rapid rate, resulting in fearsome aliens running amok and possibly spelling mankind's doom, or at least the end of man's domination over life on Earth. Investigating the phenomenon is a community college professor, Ira Kane (David Duchovny), his geologist friend Harry Block (Orlando Jones), wannabe fireman Wayne Green (Seann William Scott), and government scientist Allison Reed (Julianne Moore). Evolution also stars Ted Levine, Ethan Suplee, and Katharine Towne. … More

Theory and Practice
Edited by
- D.R.F. Taylor, Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada
- Tracey Lauriault, Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada
For generations, the map has been central to how societies function all over the world. Cybercartography is a new paradigm for maps and mapping in the information era. Defined as "the organization, presentation, analysis and communication of spatially referenced information on a wide variety of topics of interest to society," cybercartography is presented in an interactive, dynamic, multisensory format with the use of multimedia and multimodal interfaces. Cybercartography: Theory and Practice examines the major elements of cybercartography and emphasizes the importance of interaction between theory and practice in developing a paradigm which moves beyond the concept of Geographic Information Systems and Geographical Information Science. It argues for the centrality of the map as part of an integrated information, communication, and analytical package.This volume is a result of a multidisciplinary team effort and has benefited from the input of partners from government, industry and other organizations. The international team reports on major original cybercartographic research and practice from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, including the humanities, social sciences including human factors psychology, cybernetics, English literature, cultural mediation, cartography, and geography. This new synthesis has intrinsic value for industries, the general public, and the relationships between mapping and the development of user-centered multimedia interfaces.View full description

Florida stumbles late, loses at Greenville
Brendan Connolly's goal with 2:23 remaining in the third period lifted the Greenville Road Warriors to a 3-1 victory over the Florida Everblades at the Bi-Lo Center in Greenville, S.C., on Saturday night.It took just 31 seconds for the Everblades to get on the board. Brandon MacLean shoved a rebound off a shot by Matt Marquardt into the net past Greenville goaltender Nathan Lieuwen. The goal would stand for the remainder of the period, and Florida took a 1-0 lead into the first intermission.
Greenville tied the game at 4:29 of the second period when Marc-Olivier Vallerand threw a cross ice pass to Kenndell McArdle, who wristed a shot on the backside behind Everblades goalie Pat Nagle
Late in the third, the Road Warriors took advantage of an Everblades turnover to create a 2-on-1 rush. Connolly broke in on the right wing and snapped a shot past Nagle's glove for the goal.
Less than minute later, Greenville's Brandon Wong capped the game's scoring.
Lieuwen stopped 31 of 32 shots faced while Nagle allowed three goals on 27 shots.
The two teams meet again today at 4 p.m. The Everblades will return home to battle the Elmira Jackals on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. at Germain Arena.

At a prayer vigil on the steps of the state Capitol late last month, protesters -- including a former U.S. Marine and Iraq war veteran -- asked legislators to act on a medical marijuana bill that has stalled in committee.
Gov. Jim Doyle has said that if it passes, he would sign the bill. But one of the organizers of the protest, Gary Storck, is not too optimistic for this legislative session.
"(Legislators) just got so used to saying 'no' that they won't even consider it," said Storck, a Madison resident who uses marijuana to cope with glaucoma and chronic pain. ...

There are many good reasons to ensure sufficient exercise in everyday life. However, advising patients with increased blood pressure (hypertension) to exercise regularly is often regarded as a specific medical measure aiming to reduce the increased risk of late complications. But whether more exercise actually helps to avoid illnesses related to hypertension or at least delay their onset has been insufficiently investigated. In order to provide better advice to patients with hypertension, informative clinical studies are therefore needed. This is the result of a report published by the German Institute for Quality and Efficiency and Health Care (IQWiG) on 22 September 2010.
Comprehensive commission package on hypertension
This report is part of a comprehensive commission package awarded by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) in which the benefit of various non-drug treatment strategies for essential hypertension was to be assessed. This is the most common type of hypertension, for which no clear cause can be found.
People with increased blood pressure receive much well-meant advice, for example, to adopt stress-management strategies, smoke less and drink less alcohol. These measures are also recommended in clinical practice guidelines. IQWiG has already completed reports on the questions as to how a reduction in weight and salt intake affect blood pressure.
What should "more exercise" achieve?
Patients with hypertension have an increased risk of certain diseases of the heart and circulatory system. Strokes, heart attacks and also kidney failure are more common in people with hypertension than in those without this disorder.
The researchers at IQWiG were therefore particularly interested firstly, to know whether people with hypertension, by exercising mor

Cookie Cutter Cookies
Cookie baking is an essential part of the holidays. Here's a wheat-free, egg-free recipe with no refined sugar. You can frost these if you like but they are delicious plain.
1 cup almonds
1 1/2 cups brown rice flour
3/4 cups barley flour
1/4 cup arrowroot
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons lemon zest
1/4 cup cold butter or coconut oil
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup water
Grind almonds in blender or food processor to powder. Mix with flours, arrowroot, sea salt, and lemon zest. Cut in butter (if using food processor, put all that stuff in and pulse to cut butter in). Mix in remaining ingredients to form a stiff dough. If it doesn't hold together when pressed, add a little more water. Chill in refrigerator at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350. Oil large cookie sheets. On floured board, roll dough out 1/4-inch thick. Use cookie cutter to cut shapes. Bake 12 to 14 minutes until edges are slightly golden.
Yield: About 3 dozen

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
LOVEJOY Lovejoy High School senior Marcus Gooch and his classmates begged last week and tried to convince Price Jacobs, the school's construction teacher, to reconsider heading into retirement next month.
They enjoyed having him as a teacher, so they didn't want him to go, said Gooch. He said the seniors were especially saddened to hear Jacobs was retiring because they'd been with him for four years. After Nov. 30, however, he will no longer be there to teach them about foundations and roof trusses.
Jacobs is a popular "extraordinary" teacher, said Gooch, that made the kick-off to Clayton County Public Schools' 10th annual fall student Habitat for Humanity home build on Monday a poignant affair for students, district leaders and Habitat officials.
"It was an initial shock but he deserves to retire, so it's bittersweet for all of us," said Gooch.
With Price's impending retirement, this week's build project will be the final student build led by the 30-year educator. The 52-year-old has led every build project since they began 10 years ago. This time around, the pupils are rehabilitating a house in the Tara Plantation neighborhood just north of Lovejoy.

Price Jacobs' final Habitat for Humanity build
Lovejoy High School construction teacher Price Jacobs is leading his last student Habitat for Humanity build this week. He will retire from Clayton County Public Schools Nov. 30, after 30 years as an educator.
The kick-off ceremony featured praise and tributes for Jacobs from Clayton County Sheriff Kem Kimbrough — who is also the vice-president of Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity — and the school system's Coordinator of Career, Technical and Agricultural Education, Eboni Chillis.
"Price, you're a saint," said Kimbrough. "What you have done over the last 10 years has really meant a lot to the county. How much it's meant can't be described in words, except to say you're a special man."
Chillis presented Jacobs with a Home Depot gift card during the kick-off ceremony, as a gift of appreciation from the school district. She called him "priceless" in a hand-written card that accompanied the gift.
Jacobs said in August he decided to retire because he had put in 30 years as a teacher and "everything just lined up right" for him to retire now. He said he has already been approached by Kimbrough to teach safety classes for Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity and by Clayton State University officials, who would like him to teach construction classes through their Continuing Education department.
But, those offers don't change the fact that he'll have an adjustment period to go through.
"I'm already missing it now that the kids are aware of my plans and my replacement has been named," said Jacobs.
The retiring construction teacher and his wife of 31 years, Vicki, came to Clayton County Public Schools 29 years ago after spending a year teaching in Kentucky. Price Jacobs got a job at Riverdale High School while his wife got a job at an elementary school. Vicki Jacobs is now an instructional implementation specialist for the school district.
She said the fall and spring student Habitat for Humanity builds have been important to her husband. He led the planning to begin them a decade ago as a two-day project for construction students across the county, and the builds eventually grew into a week-long event.
"This is the crowning touch of every school for him," she said. "He begins planning the fall build as soon as the school year begins, and then he begins planning the spring build after that. When we say it's his baby, it really is."
With Jacobs' retirement, the leadership of the builds will be handed off to Gerald Wread, the construction teacher at Mt. Zion High School and Jonesboro High School. Wread has been working with Jacobs on the builds since they began, and he said whoever becomes the new Lovejoy construction teacher "has big shoes to fill."
"He's very good at what he does," said Wread. "It's going to be very challenging to plan these builds without him."

Shift at Historical Society Raises Concerns
By ROBIN POGREBIN and GLENN COLLINS
Published: July 19, 2004
Correction Appended
For the New-York Historical Society, the promise of a long-awaited chapter of financial stability and higher visibility now seems just around the corner — or in the basement, to be precise.
A year ago Richard Gilder and Lewis E. Lehrman, two wealthy businessmen, joined the society's board, lent the institution their renowned collection of historical documents and created a $1 million vault in the basement of the society's building on Central Park West to house the archive at their own expense.
Already the benefits are evident. The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History has moved its operations to the society, including a reading room for scholars and students. Board members are giving more money. And the society can draw on the collection and its staff for exhibitions, as it has for a forthcoming Alexander Hamilton show, the first to be presented by the society's new president, Louise Mirrer, whom Mr. Gilder helped recruit.
But the collection is not yet the society's to keep. For the moment it is only on deposit. The archive had other suitors, including the Morgan Library, where the documents resided for more than a decade and whose director said he would welcome their return. Mr. Gilder said that the New York Public Library, too, lobbied hard to get the collection. The library declined comment.
At the same time Mr. Gilder and Mr. Lehrman, both conservative Republicans, are leading the society's shift toward a broader view of its mandate, emphasizing American rather than local history. Mr. Gilder, a money manager, acknowledged that the men chose the society in part because they feared the collection would be overshadowed at a large institution like the public library.
All this suggests to some historians and society staff members that Mr. Gilder and Mr. Lehrman are dangling the prize of their collection on the condition that the society go along with their interests, and that they have chosen the society because its history of financial weakness has left it malleable.
"I am troubled by the direction apparently being charted by the historical society," said Mike Wallace, a professor of history at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and winner of the Pulitzer Prize for history in 1999, adding that he had "high regard" for Dr. Mirrer and respect for Mr. Gilder's "passion for history."
Still, Mr. Wallace added, "the many hundreds of people who rallied successfully to keep the N.-Y.H.S. alive over the past decade did not do so to have it wind up as a subsidiary of the Gilder Lehrman Institute, which would then jettison its city emphasis."
In an interview Mr. Gilder acknowledged that he and Mr. Lehrman were evaluating the society on the basis, among other things, of whether it fulfilled their desire to make its focus more national.
"Having invested $1 million in the vault, it's the society's to lose," Mr. Gilder said of the collection, which includes signed copies of the Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment, which bans slavery. "We really want to end up giving it to them. It makes a lot of sense. It could have a special identity."
Influence of Big Donors
Museums have long had complicated relations with big donors who take a strong interest in the stories told in their halls. But across the country, questions about the extent of wealthy trustees' influence on content have grown as charitable contributions have declined.
The Smithsonian Institution in Washington, for example, came under criticism from historians in May 2001 when it accepted a $38 million gift from a businesswoman, Catherine B. Reynolds, who insisted that she have a say in picking those who would select the 100 prominent Americans to be honored by the exhibition she was financing. Ms. Reynolds ultimately withdrew most of the gift.
At the historical society the rising influence of Mr. Gilder and Mr. Lehrman, and the presence of their collection in the basement, has raised questions among insiders and outsiders about whether the institute might ultimately eclipse the society.
"There is the potential for conflict of interest," said Terry L. Davis, the president and chief executive of the American Association for State and Local History, based in Nashville. "The important thing is that the board really knows what it's doing and doesn't let the money coming in rule the mission of this institution."
Board members and Dr. Mirrer, a medievalist who was formerly executive vice chancellor for academic affairs at the City University of New York, say they are conscious of that danger but discount it.
"I would hope that over time the collection, if not owned by this institution, would be seen as an integral part of our holding," Dr. Mirrer said. "We have a treasure here. Everyone is going to work closely together. It's not going to be an adversarial relationship."
The documentary filmmaker Ric Burns was recently recruited to the society's board by Mr. Gilder. "Any institution in the world would be grateful," Mr. Burns said, for the involvement of Mr. Gilder and Mr. Lehrman.

that I get back on track!
I kind of got off track around 2 months ago, but have still been going to meetings weekly except for the last 2 weeks. I did manage to loose 1-3lbs w/o tracking and eating whatever I wanted to, which i have since gained back. Suprisingly I'm only up about 1lb-2lbs since i stopped tracking.
I want to do this. I am about 7lbs away from my 10%, I had hoped to achive this goal by the end of October, but now i'm aming for the end of November. I still have over 100 lbs to loose, to get to WW lifetime, which is an overwhelming number, so i'm going to set small goals for myself to keep me motivated.

If you thought massive incentives would disappear because Cash for Clunkers is over, guess again. Manufacturers now have more reason to put cash on the hood because they aren't getting any help from federal dollars. Ford is offering $4,500 in cash back on the 2009 F-150 through Oct. 5.
The 2010s are arriving on dealer lots, but there are plenty of 2009s still available according to inventory search on Cars.com. Besides new trim levels and larger brakes for 2010, there are few changes to the truck, as it was redesigned for the 2009 model year. If you want a 2010, there is $1,500 cash back plus 0% financing for 60 months available to those who qualify. Regular cab and Raptor models are excluded from both model year deals.

A new report by the U.S. surgeon general greatly broadens the list of disease evils linked to cigarettes and concludes that urgent, aggressive action is needed to further reduce smoking rates and save lives. The report, released Friday, recommends prevention efforts that especially target groups most vulnerable to smoking, including low-income Americans and ethnic minorities and youth.
If smoking rates persist unchanged, 5.6 million American children alive today will die prematurely because of smoking, the report finds. It pegs the economic costs of smoking at $289 billion a year or more in medical care and productivity losses.

New York governor announces plan for medical marijuana at hospitals
New York State is poised to allow 20 hospitals to distribute medical marijuana, Gov. Andrew Cuomo formally announced Wednesday.
"Research suggests that medical marijuana can help manage pain and treatment of cancer and other serious illnesses," Cuomo said in the annual State of State speech in Albany.
"We will establish a program allowing up to 20 hospitals to prescribe medical marijuana, and we will monitor the program to evaluate the effectiveness and the feasibility of a medical marijuana system," Cuomo added, without elaborating.
1964 surgeon general's report may have saved 8 million in U.S.
Eight million U.S. lives were saved by anti-smoking measures enacted since a pivotal surgeon general's report 50 years ago this month, researchers estimate.
First author Theodore R. Holford, professor of biostatistics and member of Yale School of Public Health's Cancer Center, and six other researchers who are part of the National Cancer Institute's Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network found about 17.6 million Americans died since 1964 due to smoking-related causes. However, 8 million lives were saved by increasingly stringent tobacco-control measures that commenced with the Jan. 11, 1964, release of a surgeon general's report on the affects of smoking.
Sealant Inspired By Beach Worm Could Become Surgical Superglue
Cardiac surgeon and his colleagues have developed a biodegradable adhesive that can patch a hole in a pig's heart or artery. The experimental glue is nontoxic and is strong enough to hold up under the high pressures in the human heart, the team Wednesday in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
So far, they've tested the glue only in animals. So the sealant is far from reaching the operating room or battlefield. But del Nido hopes the adhesive will eventually replace traditional sutures and staples for some operations, especially heart surgery.
22 States Curb Access To Abortion In 2013
The year 2013 marked the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide. It also marked another year of success for those who would restrict or even outlaw the procedure.
While much national attention was focused on efforts to restrict abortion in , a from the Guttmacher Institute reports that as many as 22 states enacted 70 provisions aimed at curbing access to abortion. That makes 2013 in the number of abortion restrictions enacted in a single year, according to the think tank for reproductive rights.

Justice Dept. opposes block on contraceptive mandate
The Obama administration on Friday called on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to lift her order temporarily blocking a part of the president's signature health care law that requires some religious-affiliated organizations to cover forms of contraception in their health care plans.
The Justice Department said in court papers filed Friday that the challenge to the contraceptive requirement, filed by the Catholic nuns of the Little Sisters of the Poor for the Aged, did not impose a "substantial burden" and the Denver-based nuns "fail to satisfy the demanding standard for the extraordinary and rarely granted relief they seek.''

Cotter Corp. to shut down Colorado uranium mill
DENVER - DENVER (AP) - A company's decision to close rather than refurbish a uranium mill in southern Colorado has raised concerns about the cleanup of the site and monitoring of radon emissions.
State officials said Wednesday that the monitoring will continue and the public will have a chance to weigh in as Cotter Corp. develops cleanup plans.
Both federal and state agencies oversee the mill, which was declared a Superfund site in 1984 because of radioactive contamination of soil and groundwater. The business has been idle since 2005.
State regulators said Cotter decided to shut down the mill, just south of Canon City. The company has been dismantling buildings and cleaning up contamination as part of decommissioning the facilities, said Steve Tarlton, program manager of the state's radiation control program.
As long as Cotter is on the site, the company will be required to monitor for radon emissions on and off the property, Tarlton said. No emissions have been detected off the site, he added.
Company officials didn't immediately return a call after business hours.
A new state law requires uranium mills to clean up radioactive waste before accepting more radioactive material. Cotter previously said the law would hinder its plan to accept uranium from a New Mexico mine.
Canon City residents and environmental advocates are urging stepped-up state scrutiny of the mill site. They are concerned about whether the surety bond required by the state is enough to ensure a proper cleanup.
"It's a little difficult to celebrate when it is not clear if they are going to have enough money, or if they are committed to cleaning up the groundwater. I've got two contaminated wells," Sharyn Cunningham, a leader of Citizens Against Toxic Waste, told The Denver Post.
Tarlton said the state and Cotter agreed on a $20.8 million bond for licensing requirements but are still negotiating the amount to cover remediation costs. The state recommended $15 million, and Cotter proposed $3 million.
Also in the works is a cleanup plan, which the public will get a chance to address.
The state ordered Cotter to stop discharging polluted water into a creek at a closed uranium mine near Golden, west of Denver. The creek flows into a Denver-area reservoir that supplies drinking water.
State officials have said although uranium levels have risen in the creek, the amounts are small and aren't a health risk.

PAWTUCKET — Sixteen-year-old Ryan Gomes patiently points out the parts of a guitar to 6-year-old Chris Brunetti, while the younger boy balances an instrument that is almost bigger than he is on his lap. "What's this?" asks Gomes, pointing to the neck of the guitar. "What are these?" he asks next, fingering the frets and strumming a few chords. Brunetti supplies the correct answers, smiling back at Gomes with obvious pride.
It's exchanges like this that led to Gomes being selected from four nominees as the Boys & Girls Club of Pawtucket's 2012 "Youth of the Year." As of last Wednesday, the sophomore at the Jacqueline M. Walsh School for the Performing & Visual Arts advanced to the state level in the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's Youth of the Year program. As winner of the state contest, Gomes receives a $1,000 college scholarship from the Tupperware Foundation and now has the chance to compete for a $10,000 scholarship at the regional level.
According to Amy Gravell, development officer for the Boys & Girls Club of Pawtucket, Gomes will represent Rhode Island in the Youth of the Year program's northeast regional competition to be held in July in New York City. He will compete against representatives from 13 other territories, including Europe and Puerto Rico, for the chance to move on to the national competition in September.
In the national event, five regional winners will compete for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's National Youth of the Year, an honor which includes a $15,000 scholarship from Tupperware and installation by President Obama in a ceremony at the White House. The Pawtucket Club's Carolina Correa achieved such recognition as the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's 2009-2010 National Youth of the Year.
Gravell said that the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's Youth of the Year recognition is the highest honor a Club member can achieve. Since its inception in 1947, the Youth of the Year program, now sponsored by Tupperware, celebrates youth who have overcome enormous odds and demonstrated exceptional character and accomplishments. These nominees, ages 14 to 18, are recognized for service to their Club and community, academic performance and contributions to their family, she said.
Gomes certainly had a few obstacles to overcome as a young boy. After his father, who hadn't been involved in his life very much, passed away, and his mother became ill, Gomes moved from his native Canaan, Maine at the age of 7 to Pawtucket to live with his aunt, Natalina Gomes. He was raised primarily by his aunt, who also has a son, Eddie, of the same age.
Gomes said his aunt, who is his father's sister, was "really involved" in his upbringing and urged him to do well in school. "She always encouraged me and my cousin Eddie to do a lot of things and to help out," he said. His aunt's support, plus self motivation ("I like to be able to push myself," Gomes states) has led to the quiet and unassuming teen being currently ranked 8th in his high school class at the JMW School.
At the same time, Gomes discovered music, and what started out as a hobby has turned into something of a part-time business and perhaps even a future career. Gomes plays guitar, piano and drums, having had his first music lessons at the Pawtucket Club, where he has been a member for the past six years. He also has become skilled in music production using a computer software program that the Pawtucket Club has installed in its music room.
At the JMW School, Gomes was able to sharpen and build on his musical ability, and is now a member of the prestigious Tri M Music Honor Society. He has also participated in many recitals as a soloist or as a member of the school's jazz ensembles and choral events. "The main reason I got to Walsh (JMW School) was because of the music program here," noted Gomes. He credits the Pawtucket Club's music teachers, Ben Hughes and Avi David, for giving him a solid foundation.
At the Pawtucket Boys & Girls Club, Gomes is known for being a founding member and guitarist of the Key Soldiers, the Club's hip-hop band that won the top national award for best music production during the Boys & Girls Clubs of America's annual Club Tech Digital Arts Festival. This year, in the same competition, Gomes was the festival's regional winner for his original, recorded composition, "Fly Away."
As he got older, Gomes began giving music lessons to some of the younger club members. "I like teaching the kids," he says. He and another teen co-founded a business initiative called the "Hip-Rock Workshop." The two received $1,000 in seed money through a Youth Venture Grant to offer affordable music lessons to underserved children wishing to play guitar, piano, drums, or to learn music production. "I had to write a business plan, present it and defend it," he said, of the grant process.
Mike Coelho, director of teen programs at the Pawtucket Club, said that Gomes' attitude and involvement in the club helped define him as as one of the top candidates that the staff could recommend for the initial Youth of the Year competition. "He's always positive and willing to help, and to give guidance to the younger members," Coelho said. "And he's always been involved in music, and now will be even more so through giving lessons."
Gomes also works part-time at Artee Fabrics in downtown Pawtucket and has racked up an impressive 160 hours of community service activities during the past year, according to Pawtucket Club officials.
As far as his future goes, Gomes said he plans on attending college, where he would like to major in music and business. For now, he's waiting patiently for July and his trip to New York City for the next round of the Youth of the Year competition.

"Mount Sterling" Mount Sterling by cfranchise
Mount Sterling Travel Guide: 7 reviews and 57 photos
Welcome to the lovely city of Mount Sterling! It is a town that was voted 100 Best Citys For Children. I fall in love with this city more and more everyday.
Mount Sterling, the seat of Montgomery county, was settled in the late 1700s and was originally known as Little Mountain Town. It was renamed Mount Sterling in 1792 for Stirling, Scotland, the home of one of the town founders. The Montgomery Court House post office opened in 1801 and was renamed in 1807. The population in 1990 was 5,362.
Mount Sterling was the western terminus of the Mount Sterling-Pound Gap road, the longest pre-Civil War state road. It was surveyed beginning in 1817 and extended to beyond Prestonsburg, a total of ninety four miles. It became the major overland route to Virginia and the east. Maintenance was a continuing problem and it was turned over to the counties in 1838 and fell into disrepair. The present highway US 460 follows the approximate route of the original road.
- Pros:Never feel like an outsider!
- Cons:Weather is always changing!
- In a nutshell:Just another small town!

Latest news on aspirin
Although the use of aspirin to treat heart and vascular disease has assumed the status of accepted care for professionals and the public, specific questions to healthcare professionals from patients about aspirin use often have been met by best-guess responses. These include questions like: Who should take aspirin? Are there different recommendations for women than those for men? At what age should one start? What dose should be used? What are the risks?
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force is a federally funded organization whose mandate is to review scientific evidence and make objective recommendations on optimal strategies to minimize preventable illnesses. In the March edition of the Annals of Internal Medicine, the task force has updated its recommendation for aspirin for the primary prevention of heart attacks and stroke. Primary prevention is the prevention of disease in patients who are currently free of known disease; secondary prevention is the prevention of another event if one has known disease.
In men 45 to 79 years of age, aspirin is recommended to prevent heart attacks. Aspirin in women seems to lower their risk of stroke but not heart attacks. The benefit is seen in women 55 to 79 years of age, but not before. The benefits are on the order of a 20 percent risk reduction. There are not enough data showing benefit in patients over 80 years of age, and older patients probably have a higher risk of brain and gastrointestinal bleeding than younger patients.
In both men and women, the potential benefit must be weighed against the real risks of bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract, e.g., gastritis, ulcers or perforation due to erosion of the stomach or intestinal lining. Aspirin and other nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory medications are known to increase the risk of such complications.
The relatively good news is that lower doses of aspirin, i.e., 75 to 81 mg per day, seem to be as effective as higher doses, but the lower doses have a substantively lower risk of bleeding. Benefit has also been demonstrated in every-other-day use with aspirin doses of 100 to 325 mg.
For patients with existing cardiovascular disease, there seems to be no incremental benefit to aspirin doses greater than 100 mg per day. Of course, immediately after an intervention like heart surgery or angioplasty or stent placement, a higher dose of aspirin, often in conjunction with other anti-platelet medications, may be recommended for a limited period of time in order to allow the blood vessels to heal with reduced risk of superimposed clotting.
Some variability in the anti-platelet effect of aspirin is seen and known to be probably genetically based. New and constantly improving tests will help doctors identify patients who may need other doses of aspirin or even other agents that may be optimal for those patients particularly sensitive or resistant to aspirin.
There are known reasons not to start aspirin therapy given the known risks associated with other medical conditions. Clearly, this means that the final decision about the use, dose, risks and timing of aspirin therapy needs to be determined by discussion with your personal physician.

"It was noteworthy that the prostate inflammation decreased over time, suggesting the effects may not be permanent," said David Malarkey, D.V.M., Ph.D., an NIEHS pathologist and co-author on the paper.
Fenton points out that these findings may extend beyond atrazine alone, and may be relevant to other herbicides found in the same chlorotriazine family, including propazine and simazine. All three of the herbicides create the same set of breakdown products.
Fenton says more research is needed to understand the mechanism of action of the chlorotriazines and their metabolites on mammary and prostate tissue. "These tissues seem to be particularly sensitive to the effects of atrazine and its breakdown products," Fenton added. "The effects may be due to the stage of fetal development at the time the animals were exposed."
"We hope that this information will be useful to the EPA, as it completes its risk assessment of atrazine," said Linda Birnbaum, Ph.D., director of NIEHS and the National Toxicology Program.
Fenton will be presenting her research findings in September to the EPA, as part of its reassessment of atrazine. EPA announced in 2009 that it had begun a comprehensive new evaluation of atrazine to determine its effects on humans. At the end of this process, the agency will decide whether to revise its current risk assessment of atrazine and whether new restrictions are necessary to better protect public health. For more information about the EPA risk assessment, please visit http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/atrazine/atrazine_update.htm.

Stuart's Vintage Guitar Closet to host second annual Rock and Roll Band Camp
STUART - It's back by popular demand! Vintage Guitar Closet (VGC) of Stuart has announced that it will once again host a summer band camp geared just for young rockers. "We were overwhelmed by the response to our first camp," says Terry Brent, VCG owner. "We just had to do it again. There are a lot of kids out there that want to take their playing to the next level and step up on a stage. We want to help them learn all about playing in a real rock and roll band!"
VGC's band camp is geared for guitar, bass and keyboard players, as well as drummers and vocalists. The campers are placed in their own bands according to musical interest and ability, where they work with music industry professionals. By the end of the camp session, the students have not only learned to play well together, but they have also enhanced their own individual performing skills and stage presence. They have also composed their own music and are ready to perform it! That's why all of the camp sessions wrap up with a rock concert where all of the bands get to shine and experience the thrill of playing in front of a live audience!
The band camp is led by expert instructors who make a living writing, performing and teaching rock and roll music. The camp staff includes professional musicians, certified teachers and university faculty, with many years of experience. Their goal is to help all of the campers reach their playing and performing potential.
The camp also features guest visits by rock celebrities who do special workshops with the campers — a highlight for the kids! Last year's inaugural camp featured Dave Hlubek, lead guitarist and founding member of southern rock band Molly Hatchet; Patrick Johansson, who has played with Stormwind, W.A.S.P. and G3, and is currently the drummer for Yngwie Malmsteen; and Randy Johnston, recording artist and jazz guitarist extraordinaire.
"We want to provide a fun, exciting learning experience for young musicians," says Brent. "Last years' parents were so appreciative to have a rock camp close to home and they told me they were amazed to hear their kids performing their own songs after just a week. There just aren't any comparable rock camps that we know of nearby and out-of-town camps can be cost-prohibitive."
This year's camp will offer two week-long sessions for junior players who want to refine the basics of their instrument as well as learn to play in a rock band. Those sessions will run between June 18 and June 29. There will also be two senior sessions, for the more advanced players, which will run between July 2 and July 13. Each camp session is limited to 20 participants, so all of the students get lots of instruction time. The cost of the camp is $300 for one-week session and $500 for two. All camp sessions will be held at the new Coastal Life Church campus in Palm City.
To register for the camp or get additional information, go to http://www.rockandrollbandcamp.com or phone Vintage Guitar Closet at 772-237-6580. Since registration is limited, early sign-ups are recommended.

MFC owner Mark Pavelich says he would destroy Dana White in a boxing match
When it comes to finding a banner picture for Mark Pavelich, there's one that dominates them all -- I'll give you a hint as to which it is. Fortunately for MiddleEasy, we think 'outside the cage' when it comes to imagery and 'inside the cage' when it comes to cheesy and overused MMA cliches. In a perfect world, that statement should make your brain splatter all over the wall due to sheer ingenuity. However, we're not in a perfect world, and it's evidenced by Kristin Kreuk having no idea who I am.
In a perfect world, Dana White would accept Mark Pavelich's offer to fight him in a boxing match and @LayzieTheSavage would record the entire thing for MiddleEasy. Check out what the owner of MFC said in a recent interview with Frank Trigg.
I would want to spar with [Dana White] three rounds of boxing before we made the deal. And then we can make it after that because I would mash him in a boxing match. I would just destroy him. It wouldn't even be close. It's so funny. I'm like 45, bad back, zero athleticism, but the only time I look minorly athletic is if I box. It's almost comical. If you saw it, you'd be like, 'Holy smokes! He doesn't look like he could do that.' When I start boxing, I sort of look like I know what I'm doing.
The Pav, what an interesting human being -- and it seems like just yesterday he was selling his entire organization for a price tag of $3,200,000. We will never be able to fully understand you, Mark -- but keep on Paving the way.
