WEDC sees manufacturing outweighing biotech for future economic growth
MILWAUKEE -- Manufacturing and dairy farming still drive Wisconsin's economy and are the key places to focus future resources, despite struggles during the Great Recession and despite a disdain in some sectors for those industries' old-fashioned, blue-collar image, a comprehensive new study shows.
But enthusiasm in recent years for promoting Wisconsin as a biotech or life sciences hub isn't realistic -- at least when it comes to allocating the resources of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp., a WEDC representative and an industry analyst told members of the Milwaukee Rotary Club on Tuesday.
Lee Swindall of the WEDC and John Brandt, CEO of MPI Group, which compiled the data, discussed findings of the newly released, 611-page Wisconsin Economic Future Study. It identified "driver industries" in the state and ranked them by change in growth, production and competitiveness since 2003.
The study, commissioned by WEDC, WMEP and the Milwaukee 7, also compared the performance of Wisconsin's economy with eight states classified as "competitors" -- Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.
While the purpose of the report was not to downplay the importance of any specific industry, knowing which industries can realistically be expected to grow and provide jobs is the key to the state's future, said Swindall, who is vice president for business and industry development at the WEDC.
"It is my charge and my charter to support targeted industry development in the state for the industry sectors that are the most competitive, that offer the best potential for sustainable, long-term growth both in company size, company revenue and employee growth. In order to do that, we make data-based decisions," he said.
The study identified 37 "economic driver" industries in Wisconsin, 36 of which are in manufacturing. (The remaining one is in electronic shopping and mail houses.) "Driver industries" must have more than 100 employees, meet a complex formula comprised of 12 factors for growth and productivity, and produce more goods than can be consumed locally, thereby creating out-of-state revenue.
Some good news -- the data shows that 31 of the 37 driver industries grew between 2008 and 2011. The not-so-good news -- few of Wisconsin's driver industries meet the criteria of "technology intensive."
"That's important because there's a lot of literature out there says that industries that are technology intensive and have strict educational requirements tend to grow significantly faster than other industries," Brandt said.
Wisconsin's top economic drivers include:
* Transportation equipment manufacturing, other than automotive, in particular, motorcycle, bicycle and military vehicle components
* Electrical equipment manufacturing
* Pulp, paper and paperboard mills
* Dairy product manufacturing
* Foundries
* Non-metallic mineral products, in particular, sand extracted in Wisconsin quarries to feed the hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" industry elsewhere
* Glass and glass product manufacturing.
Brandt said he was surprised how well Wisconsin's manufacturing businesses held up during the Great Recession. Swindall also cheered the stability and resilience of manufacturing. He said Wisconsin would have fared far worse during the recession were not for manufacturing and that Wisconsinites should embrace, rather than discourage, factory growth.
That also goes for encouraging young workers to embrace careers in manufacturing, something he said isn't stressed to students at a young-enough age.
The WEDC plans to spread the word about manufacturing careers to middle-schoolers from now on, he said, along with continued efforts to help manufacturers collaborate with community colleges and tech schools.
Swindall told WisBusiness.com that he often hears laments about a lack of qualified workers in Wisconsin and that applicants are short on both technical and so-called "soft" skills. But Brandt told the audience that complaints of skilled-worker shortages are partly true -- as in large numbers of pending retirements -- and partly perceived, noting that companies that pay as little as $10 an hour are the most likely to complain of worker shortages.
Wisconsin's comparison to states with similar industry capabilities was a mixed, but mostly negative bag.
"For none of these measures that we looked at does Wisconsin rank highest among the eight competing states," said Brandt. "In fact, Wisconsin ranks lowest among the eight states, in 2011 at least, for gross state product and for productivity. That would be something I would look at if I was looking at policy around here."
The study found that Wisconsin industries badly lag in global engagement -- "being ready to source overseas or sell overseas," Brandt said. "What we saw was a significant gap in Wisconsin manufacturers and everybody else in being aware of and taking a look forward in 'How are we going to become global?' "
A bright spot was that Wisconsin's paper manufacturing and some other industries showed growth in exports, Brandt said, but noted "there is still room for improvement."
Still, both Swindall and Brandt said manufacturing is the way for the state to go.
"Manufacturing is the engine that drives Wisconsin," said Brandt. "If you look at the research, every dollar of manufactured goods made in the United States drives another $1.43 of activity in other sectors. For years now, two-thirds of all research has been done by manufacturing."
Swindall said the study boosts WEDC's plans to convert the former Eaton Corp. facility on Milwaukee's south side into a "lab" for members of the electronic power control manufacturing industry to test and develop new products.
"We will place three-quarters of a million dollar investment in that accelerator to recruit new companies to Wisconsin, especially early-state and start-up companies," said Swindall. The center, to be called the Wisconsin Energy Research Consortium, will be open by the end of the year, he told WisBusiness.com .
However, the emphasis on manufacturing and farming means that economic incentives will be less focused on attracting less-established industries in the state, such as scientific or research-based businesses.
"Where we see great things happening in economic development these days is not typically creating new industry," explained Brandt. "There was a period of about 10, 15 years ago when everywhere I went, people were telling me they wanted to be the next biotech capital of the world. I knew they all couldn't be right."
In an interview afterward, Swindall reiterated that the biotech industry "is not supported by the market" and stressed that the WEDC has to be guided by the market.
"We shouldn't be saying, 'We have all this unique IP value in the form of research and discovery by our academic class of researchers and a few companies in the state' and say, 'We have all this, now somebody come and buy it.' The demand has to be the leading force there."
"Biotech doesn't meet the driver industry test," said Swindall.
However, when asked by WisBusiness whether it makes sense, based on the data, for the state to invest in future iron-ore strip mining, Swindall was more open-minded.
"Economic diversity is important. We also need to emphasize increasing diversity in our state's economy, just as you would an investment portfolio to reduce risk," he said. "We're not focusing on mining as a strategic sector, but we're not opposing it. We think it's for the industry and for the local stakeholders to decide."
Swindall did say that biomedical equipment manufacturing is considered an economic driver industry in some parts of Wisconsin.
Members of the audience asked why health care -- a major employer in the state -- was not listed as an economic driver by the study.
Brandt said that's because health care is "intensely local."
"For the most part, it's not importing patients and not importing dollars," he said.

HAGERSTOWN, Md. — A proposed retail and restaurant shopping center in South Hagerstown by Bowman Development is starting to show some movement.
Oak Ridge Mills, located just north of the Sheetz at the South Potomac Street and Oak Ridge Drive intersection, has filed for a grading permit to move dirt, according to Hagerstown city officials.
However, no building permits for any stores, banks or retail spaces have been filed, according to city staff. An updated site plan would still need to be submitted as well.
The project at 1362 S. Potomac St., had its 2008 site plan renewed on July 8, 2015, according to city documents, but that's just to keep from doing additional paperwork if they decide to change.
It is somewhat risky for developers to show and advertise space before they receive regulatory approvals. Some developments do show prospective spaces to see if they can land an anchor or at least commitments from a couple of tenants to attract others and go through getting the necessary approvals to start construction.
Still, cities could see something where there isn't enough parking, so square footage is reduced, or a drive-thru isn't going to work in a certain space.
With that said, the site plan you see above in this post could change drastically or stay close to the sketch. Either way, the city and other agencies haven't signed off on that plan.
The rumor mill around Hagerstown has pegged a Cheesecake Factory here. Right now, nothing corroborates that rumor. No building permits. Nothing identifying that business on site plans. No company announcement. No job listings for Hagerstown.
Still, I don't see Cheesecake Factory—if it would ever come to Hagerstown—going at that intersection. It's in an odd spot near schools, a Sheetz that needs its exterior updated and the neighboring South View Townhomes wouldn't fit within its upscale casual image.
It would need to be further south, but if anyone knows of a Cheesecake Factory in the same shopping center as a Walmart let me know, but I don't think there is.

Pour the olive oil into a wide, heavy-bottomed frying pan. Then add the chile and garlic and, over moderate to low heat, to infuse rather than to color, fry for 2 minutes, stirring all the time. Then turn the heat to high, add the shrimp, and stir-fry them for another 2 minutes or until they turn pink and are just, delicately, cooked; you want the flesh to stay tender. Pour in the white wine and let it bubble up. You don't want a liquid puddle around the shrimp, just enough wine to let the juices ooze into a winy sauce. Another minute or so should do it. Season with the salt, if necessary, and then turn into your bowl and sprinkle with parsley. Eat with some good hunks of baguette. I eat these carapace, head, and all: one of the reasons I designate them for solitary dinner.
If you want, you can add a tablespoonful or so of brandy before throwing in the wine.

Non-comedogenic Chart
basically means 'won't clog pores'
This chart MAY help when formulating blends that are to be used on the face.
The sources of the info are not listed for a reason, I'm too lazy, but, rumor has it that anyone with half a brain can google much of it for themselves. Ingredients not listed are not listed for a reason-I wasn't satisfied with what I read and it probably didn't easily fit into any one category.
Mileage may vary-as skin varies.
Low Clogging Probability Medium Clogging Probability High Clogging Probability Almond Oil (Sweet Almond) Corn Oil Cocoa Butter Anhydrous Lanolin Cottonseed Oil Coconut Oil Apricot Kernal Oil Crisco Sodium Chloride (salt) Avocado Oil Glyceryl Stearate SE Wheat Germ Oil Beeswax Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil Bentonite Clay Mink Oil Candelilla Wax Soybean Oil Castor Oil Sulfonated Castor Oil Cetearyl Alcohol Emulsifying Wax NF

When formulating soaps that are destined for use on your face or other sensitive areas be sure to be aware of what you are adding. You don't need a degree in dermatology or CNA training to make the proper soaps for facial cleansing and moisturizing, but be sure to to do proper research on your ingredients beforehand.

Commission steps up action on Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative conditions
Today, the European Commission adopted concrete proposals to tackle Alzheimer's disease, dementias and other neurodegenerative conditions. These shared health and social challenges in Europe call for coordinated actions to ensure efficient prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care for those affected. In addition, European countries are also invited to pool their resources and better coordinate their research efforts in the field of neurodegenerative diseases, and Alzheimer's in particular, by programming their research investments jointly for the first time, instead of each separately. There are currently over seven million people with Alzheimer's disease and related disorders in Europe and it is predicted that this number will double in the next 20 years. It is vital to plan, invest and cooperate in this field today both to control the social costs of these diseases as well as to offer hope, dignity and healthier lives to the millions of sufferers and their families. Today's actions mark important new steps both in the Commission's 'Europe for Patients campaign' and the new approach of Joint Programming in research.
EU Health Commissioner Androulla Vassiliou said: " Losing mental capacity to dementia is not just a normal part of getting older. As the European population ages, we must work together to better understand and prevent these conditions. We must show our solidarity to people with dementia by sharing best practice in caring for them and respecting their rights and dignity."
EU Science and Research Commissioner Janez Potočnik said: ' We want to help research play a bigger role in tackling such societal challenges as Alzheimer's and related disorders. The Commission already has a track record of supporting European research projects with the best scientists in this area. But we will see a major step ahead if Member States now start coordinating their national programmes around a common agenda. With the Recommendation on Joint Programming of research we propose today, we invite Member States to commit to a pragmatic approach for pooling resources and research investments in order to better address Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases. This is an opportunity for European science and a response to a challenge of our modern society. "
A growing social and economic burden
Due to the increasing lifespan and the decreasing ratio of working to retired populations, the social and economic burden of neurodegenerative diseases is growing. In 2005, the total direct and informal care costs of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias were estimated at €130billion in the EU27 (€21 000 per patient); 56% of these costs was informal care. The most common forms of dementia in the European Union are Alzheimer's disease (about 70% of cases), and vascular dementia (less than 30%).
The Commission proposes four main areas of action
The objective of this European initiative is to tackle the main problems posed by Alzheimer's disease and dementias in four key areas:
The first Joint Programming initiative to coordinate research on Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases
Alzheimer's disease and related disorders have been identified by the EU countries as an area where the first Joint Programming of research activities should be launched. Joint Programming addresses EU countries willing to engage in the development of a common Strategic Research Agenda which will allow their participation on a variable geometry basis. 20 countries in Europe have already shown their willingness to pool resources and to conduct research in an area where a common initiative would offer major added value compared with the current, fragmented research efforts in Europe.
This pilot Joint Programming initiative should pave the way for other Joint Programming initiatives in the future.
Alzheimer's disease and other dementias are part of the broader neurodegenerative diseases. At European level, the European Parliament adopted resolutions in 1996 and 1998 and the Commission's 2007 EU health strategy 'Together for Health' identifies the need to better understand neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's in the context of ageing. In 2008, the Council called on the Commission to produce a plan of action to tackle neurodegenerative diseases and particularly Alzheimer's disease. The Commission funds research projects on Alzheimer's and ND diseases through the 7th Research Framework Programme.

Religion has plenty of guidance for all aspects of modern life. That most certainly includes how we manage our money. Paying interest, tithing, charity, even how we should view the concept of money itself. Over the next few weeks we'll look at the role that the church, the mosque or the temple plays in our financial decisions.
This week, to mark the month of Ramadan, we'll start with Islam. Islamic finance is fundamentally shaped by its view of interest, or riba in Arabic. Dr. Yahia Abdul-Rahman is the author of "The Art of Islamic Banking and Finance." He also runs a mortgage firm in Pasadena, Calif. called American Finance House, LARIBA, which means riba-free.
He said that Muslims, like other faiths, consider money as a tool, not a measure of a person's character.
"Money is a measuring device and it measures the success or failure of an investment," Abdul-Rahman told Money host Tess Vigeland. "So money has to be invested back into the community to generate economic prosperity, job opportunity with prudence."
Islamic law is very clear about matters of money. There are defined rules about how much to tithe, or to give in "zakat," specifying different levels of giving based on how you earn your income.

About Us
Meet the owners of CoraBella Studio!
Nikki had been a stylist for about a year and a half when Sarah began working at the station next to hers. After working together side by side for the next 13 years, it was only natural for them to take the next step in their careers together as well. While you may never see them in the studio at the same time, running CoraBella will always be a collaborative effort.
Our goal is to indulge our guests with great service, an amazing experience and beautiful results. We are so thrilled to share our vision, and CoraBella, with our clients, friends, and family!
Where did the name CoraBella come from? Why, these two beauties of course! Bella is Sarah's daughter and Cora is Nikki's daughter. Our families are our inspiration and our 'why.'
Nikki has been a stylist since 2003. Her formative training includes a 3-day haircolor master class at the Redken Exchange in New York. The knowledge Nikki gained at "Color and Know Why" changed how she colors hair to this day. It's given her a complete understanding of how color works on each individual's hair from the inside out, taking the guesswork out of formulation
Nikki enjoys all of the services she offers, but updos are her favorite. She has styled hundreds for weddings, prom, and other special occasions. Updos give her the opportunity to use her creativity and artistry to transform your hair into a unique work of art.
An appointment with Nikki is a comfortable, collaborative experience. You will feel heard when you are in her chair. From a total makeover to routine maintenance, her objective is to fulfill your wishes - no judgement.
When she is not behind the chair, Nikki is a stay at home mom to two beautiful children. Camden is 4 and Cora is 2.
Sarah is one of those stylists who can look at your hair, ask some questions, and give you immediate thoughts and ideas on what would look amazing on you. This talent comes from her years of experience of becoming a cosmetologist in 2003
Sarah decided to become a cosmetologist beccause she is passionate about helping people look and feel their best. While she loves focusing on your total look of cut and color combined, she is extremely passionate about color. "Color is so important and is truly my favorite part of what we are trying to accomplish because it makes the biggest difference."
Additionally, Sarah will spend time showing you how to achieve the "salon look" at home so you can recreate it between salon visits. She can't wait to meet you!

If you haven't seen Rise of the Guardians, you should. Not only is it a cute animated movie about childhood, it has some pretty good messages. One of the themes revolves around Jack Frost as he tries to figure out what his center is, the reason why the moon choose him to become a Guardian. Most people spend their entire lives looking for the one thing that makes them who they are. There are a lot of things that make up a person but their center is what pulls all others towards it.
For me, I believe it's writing. When I'm in front of my computer or scrawling ideas down in my ratty notebook, I feel the surest in my skin. Writing is creating. Writing is teaching. Writing is giving comfort to those who need it. I can't imagine not doing it and I can't live without it.

Bikers Mass 2010 was held at Eglise Sacre Coeur in New Liskeard on Sunday, June 27th. We met at Chartrand's Independent grocer's and rode to the church, a few blocks away. Father (Pere) Richard Ngoy (officiating) was able to ride to the church with Ray Poirrier and thought that was the "cat's meow". Richard was excited and extremely appreciative to have been given the opportunity to ride with Ray and other bikers who attended the mass. Knowing that I have a tendency to always have my camera in tow, Father Richard asked me to take a few photos of him on the bike and I imagine his intentions are to send these pictures to his friends and family in the Congo!
Ribbons of various colors were hung on the pews and on the stairs leading up to the church. The ribbons signified the different types of Cancers and served as a clear reminder as to our purpose and goals where helping raise funds and awareness about Cancer are concerned (to help friends and family who are either directly or indirectly affected by this illness). Alaya and Andre set flowers down by to the altar as a symbol of the different types of Cancer; a sample box of items offered to Cancer patients in the hospital as a a part of the freedom ride, was also set down as well as a helmet offered by Kim.
Please forgive me if I am forgetting other items
The mass was very powerful and the slide show some of our members (I believe Anne Thibodeau was a creative contributor if not creator) prepared brought tears to our eyes. Many great messages were heard and I for one, truly profited from the experience.
Following the mass, the congregation and bikers all went outside to have Father Richard bless the bikes. It was, overall, an extremely powerful and enlightening experience and it is great that we were able to be a part of it. Thank you Father Richard and all who prepared the mass. It is with great appreciation that I take my hat off to you! Job well done, message clearly heard and with bikes and helmets blessed, I believe we are ready to do whatever it is we are meant to do to help in this battle against Cancer!
The prayers offered during mass...

How is your week going so far....
Hmmm.....I've got something HOT coming up this week..
Hopefully, it'll be ready by Thursday.
So here is another Idols WA update...I know some of you are sick of it by now but its getting close to the finish line so we might as well finish what we started....
This week's episode was exciting because the Idols West Africa presenter, Mike Majic proposed to his fiancé during the show. According to the Idols WA website, Here is how it went down…
"A young lady was randomly(?) picked from the audience by Timi and Eric. She stood on the stage and a song began to play – 'Liberian Girl' by Michael Jackson. Then a message appeared on the largest of the screens on the stage – "A message from Mike Majic…Malia…Will You…Marry Me?" The crowd shared in the magic (pardon the pun) of the moment as Malia stood on the stage bewildered by what was happening. Her boyfriend of 7 years was finally (!) proposing and he was doing it in front of hundreds of people, in what can only be described as a fairytale proposal!"
"Malia was hesitant to speak after the proposal, saying that she had not yet told her parents. She confirmed that the song was a tribute to her Liberian nationality, that the two of them had met in church seven years ago and that Mike is, "Really sweet and caring."
Timi - 'Flying Without Wings' by Westlife
Timi - Michael Bolton's 'How Am I Supposed to Live Without You'
Omawumi - Mary J. Blige's 'Be Without You' – The judges said her performance was terrible but I don't think it was that bad…
Omawumi - 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor
Eric - Seal's 'Kiss from a Rose'
Eric - Lionel Richie's 'All Night Long'
Jerrilyn - 'Never Too Much' by Mary J. Blige
Jerrilyn - 'The Voice Within' by Christina Aguliera – Surprisingly ok – but she was still voted OUT
Temitayo - 'I'm Your Baby Tonight' by Whitney Houston
Temitayo - 'Reach' Gloria Estefan
That's it for today....Let us know what you think about the proposal and the performances.....Also what do you think about the Idols WA fashion (outfits, hair, makeup etc...) so far? Have a fabulous day. Kisses!~

There are many laboratory activities conducted at the NIH and to be compatible with our mission these activities must be conducted with the least amount of impact to human health and the environment.
The NEMS Sustainable Lab Practices Working Group is currently examining lab activities and developing procedures and tools on how to "green" those activities here at the NIH. As these procedures and tools are developed, they will be posted here for your reference.
If you are interested in joining the NEMS Sustainable Lab Practices Working Group, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Go Greener Challenges can be used to baseline how "green" NIH activities and operations are while identifying opportunities for offices and labs to minimize their environmental impacts and become more sustainable. Evaluators are trained on how to use a specially designed evaluation form to baseline how environmentally-sound the activities are within a particular office or lab space and to use that data to provide a particular score or rating. This information can be used to identify how well an Institute or Center is conducting its activities and to help prioritize opportunities to improve.
If you are interested in conducting a Go Greener Challenge in your office or lab, please contact Bani Bhattacharya for training information and implementation assistance.

With one stamp club full, and another finishing up, I have had a few enquiries lately about getting another club up and running. Stamp Clubs are a great way to tick some stuff off your wishlist, while sticking to a budget, and perhaps best of all, it's your chance to get those hostess freebies - a hostess stampset, and a guaranteed mimimum SU $35 credit, without having to actually host a workshop.
In addition to that you will receive a copy of the new catalogue and idea book, a card sample swatch with all the su card colours, to help with planning your projects, and monthly project kits showcasing different product or techniques – all free. I am also planning some product shares in the coming months, that will be available to club members only, to help stretch those dollars even further.
So what do you need to do to get your hands on all those freebies?
The way the club works is you commit to a $45 order each month for eight months (+usual SU post charge of 5%). Your order can be made up with anything from the catalogue, or other specials that I may offer from time to time, such as embellishment shares. One of the eight months you get a turn to receive the hostess freebies – a hostess stamp set and credit of at least $35 (hostess month is based on the order in which participants register). Email me your order, and each month your goodies will be posted out to you. All from the comfort of your home!
If you already find yourself ordering product on a regular/semi regular basis, this is especially good for you - it's time for you to get your hands on some of that free stuff!

Everyone knows the story: young Oystein "Euronymous" Aarseth was stabbed to death by his friend and peer Varg Vickernes after a dispute that to this day is unclear. Euronymous? band at the time, the ultra-cult Mayhem, dissolved and the name became synonymous with Black Metal.
Sadly Maniac, Hellhammer, Necrobutcher and newcomer Blasphemer were not content to leave this legacy as it was. Instead they reformed Mayhem in an attempt to recapture the glory of the past - and the money of the fans?
The new Mayhem project is laughable. Maniac may have been in the band once, but he was not in the band for a reason. Rumours suggest that Necrobutcher was going to be kicked out of the band by Euronymous only days after Euronymous was killed. And, well, Blasphemer seems to be exactly the kind of goth metal fan that Euronymous would have hated when he was alive. And yet all of these forces came together to somehow reform Mayhem? Please. The least they could have done is thought up a new name. I'm not even sure that I can call this a black metal album, truthfully.
Sonically the production on this album is superb. I especially like the mixing on the album; plenty of bass without being "bassy", enough treble that I can hear all the cymbal crashes cutting through the guitars, and vocals right up front.
Musically this album is something completely new [at least, new to me]. Songs structures are strange, if they are structured at all. Musically this is perhaps one of the most aggressive "black metal" albums I?ve heard in a long time. Guitars attack the listener with fast and heavy riffs unlike any past Mayhem album. Like many other black metal guitarists Blasphemer likes to layer tremolo-picked lines on top of his power chords, but Blasphemer's lines are unique - he follows patterns and climbs and descends various scales. As far as tremolo-picked lines go, this is perhaps my favourite album for them all.
The vocals on this album are by Maniac who is famous in black metal for not having a conventional vocal style. Rather than use evenly spaced versus and choruses Maniac often rushes his vocals. His vocals lines are not tied to the music and seem to simply float on top. Most songs integrate both harsh and clean vocals, where the clean vocals seem to be spoken rather than sung, and delivered with an authority like that of a general commanding his troops.
While each song on the album is somewhat similar, this contributes to an overall cohesive feel of the album. Listening to it really gives the impression of context; I understand why this is track 5 and that is track 2, because it simply feels like that is where they belong. That is until we reach the techno song. Yes, the Mayhem techno song. I think that's all I need to say about that - I fear if I go any further the ultra-kult black metallers reading this will have an aneurysm.
For a unique perspective on black metal or to hear what the old Mayhem guys think the band would sound like today, pick up this album. It's not perfect but it is at the very least an interesting and unique release. I do have to take points off for the abuse of the name and the techno though.

Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina is seeking more than $5 million from investors to fund her movie about young drug addicts in the hope of landing Selena Gomez, Amanda Seyfried and Dakota Fanning for the film.
The Mean Girls star's mom heads up production company Defiant Pictures and she is working on a new drama called Growing Defiant, described as "the story of three life long friends from upper middle class Long Island, who delve into the underworlds of heroin".
Dina Lohan has devised a business plan for financing of the movie, and sent it out to prospective investors – and in a copy, obtained by TMZ.com, she outlines her dream cast.
She's asked for $5.28 million and wants young stars including Fanning, Gomez and Seyfried, as well as Hayden Panettiere, Emma Stone, James Gandolfini and Susan Sarandon to sign up for the picture.
However, Lohan admits she's only got one confirmed name for her movie – her son, Michael Lohan, Jr.
A note in the business plan reads, "The cast listed above is a suggested cast list only. Michael Lohan is the only cast member who has been signed."
Of the $5.28 million Lohan is seeking, she's allocated $1.1 million for actors' fees.

Smooth baby skin? Ha! Many infants have bumps, flakes and scales in their first couple of months. Here's the lowdown on four conditions:
Smooth baby skin? Ha! Many infants have bumps, flakes and scales in their first couple of months. Here's the lowdown on four conditions:
1. Baby Acne: Wash your little one's face daily with a mild, fragrance-free soap, says Daniel Krowchuk, M.D., professor of pediatrics and dermatology at Wake Forest University School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, N.C.
2. Cradle Cap: Whether bald or sporting a full head of hair, your baby's scalp could be plagued with yellowish scaly patches known as cradle cap. Shampoo with a mild baby shampoo two to three times a week, or, "if there are lots of scales, use a mild anti-dandruff shampoo with either zinc pyrithione or selenium sulfide," recommends Krowchuk. You can also rub a little mineral oil on the scalp, then remove scales with a comb.
3. Diaper Rash: If red bumps appear on your baby's buttocks and genitals, change her diaper more frequently and use diaper cream liberally to protect the skin against the, er, elements. If you don't see improvement within five days, call your pediatrician.
4. Eczema: Eczema—or red, rough patches—is the most common chronic skin condition in children. Use fragrance-free cleanser, bathe your baby every other day and moisturize her twice a day with fragrance-free lotion. Dress her in cotton clothing and stick with mild detergents such as Ivory Snow or Dreft. "Even if you're doing everything right, flare-ups do occur," Krowchuk says. Talk to your pediatrician, who may prescribe a mild steroid cream.

Meghan Markle turns heads with edgy outfit at latest royal outing
Meghan Markle has changed up her look again, wearing a sleeveless trench coat from Canadian label NONIE, as she and husband Prince Harry attend an exhibition marking the centenary of the birth of Nelson Mandela.
Nina Kharey, founder and creative director of NONIE tells PEOPLE, 'Seeing Meghan Markle wear the NONIE Trench Dress today with such elegance and grace is beyond exciting!'
'Her continuous support of Canadian brands is remarkable, and it is a true honor to be the first Canadian based ready-to-wear designer she has worn since her wedding earlier this year.'
PEOPLE reports that Meghan's outfit is actually from her own closet, and was purchased in Toronto just before the duchess moved to London in 2017.
Her decision to wear something she had previously owned could be the result of major backlash from the extravagant cost of her wardrobe of late.
Since the newlywed couple announced their engagement in November 2017, Prince Charles has spent a reported $1 million just on the former Suits star's designer wardrobe.
Unlike thrifty Kate Middleton, the newly minted Duchess of Sussex has 'expensive taste' and it's 'breaking the bank', US publication Life & Style reported.
The US publication noted that in June alone, Meghan stepped out in an $18,000 Givenchy cape dress for her first solo engagement with Queen Elizabeth II, purchased a $4,000 Carolina Herrera off-the-shoulder top and skirt for the Trooping The Colour ceremony, and arrived in a $6,000 Oscar de la Renta printed maxi dress for Princess Diana's niece's wedding.
On top of June's exuberant costs, Meghan and Harry have spent a whopping $54,442 AUD on their wardrobe for their two-day Ireland tour last week.
According to reports, Prince Charles was left 'unhappy' by Meghan's spending.

It's that time of year again. Before we know it, it'll be time to wrap the year's marketing campaigns, report on performance and write the plan for what will bring next year's successes.
It's important that marketers constantly iterate strategies throughout the year based on performance. However, the end of the year presents the perfect opportunity to evaluate what worked and what didn't— including which marketing mediums were successful.
While we're on the subject of marketing mediums, have you leveraged the power of video? If not, you should.
According to Wyzowl's State of Video Marketing Survey, 81% of businesses use video as a marketing tool— up 18 points from 2017. In addition, the average respondent consumes 1.5 hours of video a day, and 72% would rather use video to learn about a product or service, if both video and text are available.... More

So, here I am, packing for a 10 day getaway to Germany. DH arrives home with a package for me. I love packages. This one is a cardboard envelope… a book? I love books.
Within 2 minutes I have torn the packaging open to see this:
Ah yes, the wonderful Sock Innovation by Cookie A. I just reviewed this book a few weeks ago… or was it last week? I don't know, time seems to be compacted for me lately.
I had requested a review copy but had never heard back from the publisher, so I purchased this book as a pre-order and devoured it upon arrival. I am quite grateful that Interweave has sent this book along but since I already have a copy… let's give it away to a lucky reader/listener! Hope you like socks!
So, how shall we run this little contest? Hmmm?
Since I am leaving tomorrow, returning for a few days, only to leave again, this contest will run for 4 weeks. Heck – let's just make it 4 weeks and 6 days, that would be my youngest son's birthday. All you have to do is leave a comment to this post, you can say anything – well, almost anything – please don't be vulgar ;)
I will close the contest on July 30, 2009 at 11:59 PM (Rome). On 31 July I will use Random.org to draw a winner. Bonne Chance!
Edited to Add: Your comment will not show until I have approved it… please allow time for me to do this. Also, only one comment per person – I will be checking IP addresses ;)

M2M providers using cellular technology to deploy their solutions in distant geographic markets have met a number of challenges. The choices have traditionally been expensive (pay roaming) or complicated (contract with yet another wireless carrier). Recently, Wyless PLC (www.wyless.com) from the UK touted global SIM cards which can extend the reach of one's monitoring fleet into distant markets with the convenience of one management interface and one invoice. It's not clear at this point what that level of convenience costs, but this is definitely a sign that global deployment of cellular measurement devices is in demand!What's next on the horizon? Mobile Satellite Ventures (www.msvlp.com) is planning the launch of their next generation satellite technology which will provide hybrid cellular-satellite coverage throughout North America. Although not global, this technology is the ultimate–a single IP enabled communicator (least cost routing, fail-over capability) that can be deployed anywhere. Can't wait till 2010!

We've been busy here at Malwarebytes with several product announcements recently. Malwarebytes Incident Response was released in late April, providing threat detection and remediation via our new cloud-based platform. Right on its heels, leveraging the same platform is Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection, our latest endpoint security solution for business. This latest release unifies a number of technologies onto a single agent on the endpoint and adds a new machine learning detection engine into our layered approach to protection.
Best-Informed Telemetry
As we've mentioned before, Malwarebytes threat detection is driven by the industry's best-informed telemetry. Because Malwarebytes is the gold standard in remediation, we see more than 500,000 consumer and enterprises download Malwarebytes every day when their existing solutions fail them. And every day, more than 3 million remediation events are processed. This telemetry of the malware that is "succeeding" provides us the insight to understand the tactics, techniques, and procedures the attackers are leveraging.
Multi-Vector Protection
To provide the best protection possible, Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection delivers Multi-Vector Protection (MVP) with 7 unique layers of technology. These layers fall into two general categories: rules-based and behavior-based. The rules-based layers address the known threats (and their variants). The malware that is unknown is handled by the behavior-based technologies. The telemetry that we described above validates the effectiveness of our behavior technologies (and ensures we minimize FP issues) while informing our rules-based approaches.
The rules-based layers include Web Protection and Payload Analysis.
Web Protection: prevents the endpoint from connecting to malicious websites and downloading malicious payloads. In the event that a malicious payload does make its way onto an endpoint, it prevents the malware from connecting to command and control servers.
Payload Analysis: uses heuristic rules to identify entire families of known and relevant malware.
The Behavioral-based layers are "signature-less" technologies that include Application Hardening, Exploit Mitigation, Application Behavior, Ransomware Mitigation, and our new machine learning engine – Anomaly Detection.
Application Hardening reduces the vulnerability surface, making the endpoint more resilient. This also proactively detects fingerprinting attempts made by advanced exploit attacks.
Exploit Mitigation proactively detects and blocks attempts to compromise application vulnerabilities and remotely execute code on the endpoint.
Application Behavior ensures applications behave as intended, preventing them from being leveraged to infect the endpoint.
Ransomware Mitigation detects and blocks ransomware from encrypting files by using behavioral monitoring technology.
Anomaly Detection is our new machine-learning approach. While traditional machine learning approaches have focused on malware classification (training the machine learning algorithm on known malware in order to identify unknown malware), we've taken a different approach by focusing on known good files. The space of known good files is significantly easier to represent well, resulting in a model that performs very well over time. Most importantly, this new engine fits into our layered approach to prevention.
It's critical to note that our remediation capabilities are included as part of Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection because we know we can't be 100% effective 100% of the time. So when something does get through, as soon as we know about it, we'll be able to find and thoroughly remove the infection.
Malwarebytes cloud platform
Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection is the second solution to be offered on our new single, unified endpoint agent and delivered via our cloud-based management platform. This new platform eases deployment of Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection (as well as Malwarebytes Incident Response). Additionally, larger organizations benefit from effortless, unlimited scalability and quick time-to-value.
In addition to managing the deployment, the cloud management console also centrally manages security policy and threat visibility across all endpoints in your organization. The cloud platform also enables endpoint Asset Management by delivering dozens of endpoint system details such as network interfaces, storage devices, memory objects, installed software, software updates, startup programs, and more.
Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection will be available for sale on June 28th. I encourage you all to learn more about this new solution and more importantly, give it a try!

Nearly half of Americans under the age of 35 have been affected by online harassment, threats, or bullying, according to a new survey conducted by several online advocacy groups. Most of that harassment is concentrated on Facebook, which is home to 62 percent of the online abuse in the country.
The survey — conducted by Rad Campaign, Lincoln Park Strategies, and the founder of the Craigslist classified ads site — found that younger Americans are more than twice as likely to experience online harassment compared to people above the age of 35. And women are more likely to be the subject of these type of threats; about 57 percent of all individuals who experience online abuse are women. Sexual harassment is the most common type of abuse on the internet.
The people who have experienced online abuse say it can have serious consequences for their well being. Nearly 40 percent said it hurt their self esteem. About 30 percent said they feared for their lives, and 20 percent reported they were afraid to leave their home.
"Some people may think the Internet is a place where they can threaten people without consequences, but online harassment has horrifying real-life effects," said Allyson Kapin, a co-founding partner of Rad Campaign, said in a press release. "These poll results show the need for effective responses to the problem at all levels."
Indeed, cyberbullying can have a devastating impact on vulnerable teenagers who may end up taking their own lives. Kids who are harassed online are three times more likely to contemplate suicide. LGBT youth are particularly at risk for being targeted with this type of harassment.
Spurred by several recent tragedies related to online harassment, lawmakers have attempted to find legislative solutions to keep pace with the changing nature of bullying. Now, about 20 states specifically include "cyberbullying" in their anti-bullying laws, although some of this state legislation runs into challenges balancing concerns about protecting free speech.
And in practice, victims still may not feel like they benefit from these criminal protections. Last year, freelance journalist Amanda Hess detailed how difficult it can be for women to get law enforcement to take online threats seriously. Feminist activists have also pressured the social media giant Twitter to get better at cracking down on gender-based harassment, like rape threats. According to the new survey, about 62 percent of Americans don't believe the country has strong enough laws to effectively tackle online abuse.

The number and variety of tools available to the Digital Humanities community has been growing exponentially in recent years. Many have been developed by DH scholars and are freely available to anyone with an internet connection. There are currently 700 entries in DiRT – a database of tools for the Digital Humanities community. If you are new to DH it can be hard to know where to begin. Even with experience it's not always easy to find the right tool for the job. Which is one reason for the proliferation of tools – sometimes you have to create your own.
For those new to the field, I've selected a few tools that might be a good place to start, found related resources that provide more information and put them together in the virtual tour presented above. In addition to a screenshot and link to the DiRT database, the tour includes screencasts that provide overviews of: OMEKA – an easy to use platform for creating collections of digital objects and mounting digital exhibits, LORE – a Zotero based tool for annotating digital objects, VOYANT – a suite of tools for exploring texts, TAPoR – an online environment for text analysis, and Scalar – a non-linear multimedia platform for scholarly publishing. For inspiration I've added videocasts with information on two well known projects: "Transcribe Bentham" and "Digital Thoreau". But that's just the beginning … a wealth of tools, methods and inspirational projects are just waiting to be discovered.

~ Chapter 25: A kiss under the rain (Part 1) ~
[Seryanna's point of view]
The door behind me was slammed shut, the key turned, locking it, and I dropped on my knees on the floor. Tears welled up in my eyes, the result of my emotions bursting out like that.
I was angry, frustrated, and mad at that idiotic human! Of all the things he could have said, those were the only words I didn't wish to hear!
Why couldn't he have said that he came all this way for me?! I shouted in my mind as I clenched my fists, nearly poking holes in my palms with my nails.
At least, I left before everyone else saw me crying. As a knight, I had to always keep my chin up, standing strong and proud in front of anyone and anything. Nothing was supposed to move me, to disturb my flow, yet here I was, crying because of some words spoken by a stupid human.
I was a disgrace…
Knock! Knock!
"Who is it?" I asked after wiping my tears.
"Not Alkelios." a woman replied.
I recognized her voice immediately.
"Yes. Open up. I'm alone. The moron is downstairs with your sister." she told me.
"How can I trust you speak the truth?" I asked while I got up from the floor.
"Really, girl? Open up before I bust this door open and make you eat your own tail!" she threatened me.
With a gulp, I turned the key in the hole and pressed on the handle. The door squeaked, and I peaked outside. There, I saw the silver-scaled dragoness looking back at me with a raised eyebrow and her arms crossed at her chest.
"Are you going to let me in, or what?" she asked.
I nodded and then moved out of her way. After she entered, I locked the door and looked back at her.
"The boy really made you cry, didn't he?" she smirked.
"That's not true." I glared, unwilling to admit the truth.
"Your eyes are red and tearing up as we speak." she pointed out.
I wiped my tears, trying to get rid of the proof, but what was the use? They didn't stop and kept flowing one after another.
With my face red and cheeks wet, I gave up and sat down on the bed. Kataryna took a seat next to me, but she didn't say a word, she remained quiet and looked out the window.
"How was the journey?" I asked while trying hard not to let go of a single whimper.
"Pretty fun. We ended up traveling on top of a Royal Rooster instead of flying all the way over here. We got lost in an abandoned mine, almost drowned in the river, got chased by monsters. You know, the usual." she shrugged, but there was nothing usual about this adventure of theirs.
Most adventurers or travelers would usually take the safe route, traveling on paths most of us knew of. Monsters usually avoided them, and bandits had a harder time picking a suitable prey. For me, it was a rather boring journey without any kind of attackers. I was well prepared just in case, but from the dragoness' words, there was only one part that caught my curiosity.
"Royal Rooster?" I asked.
Even I knew the name of that mount. My master had one as well, and it was terrifyingly possessive of her as well as strong and proud.
"Yes, he summoned one using his skill. It was quite strange, indeed." she nodded.
"His skill?" I then remembered the fact that Alkelios was a human brought here from another world by a god.
If I hadn't already witnessed his skills and Luck at first hand, I might have thought of him as a simple madman, but too many things about him didn't add up when I was comparing him with the humans from my grandfather's tales. One of them was the fact that he found me attractive. From what I was told, humans instinctively despised all other species except themselves, even more so when it comes to the enemies of their kingdoms. Alkelios never showed hate or despise towards me, it was actually the opposite, yet that was more of a reason why I couldn't understand why he said those words to me.
Did he change his mind after we rescued Kleo? I wondered while looking down at the floor.
"He is the strangest and the most interesting human I have ever met!" said Kataryna with a grin.
"For me, he is the only human I have ever met…" I said with a low voice.
I let out a sigh and looked back at the silver-scaled dragoness.
"Did you mean it when you said those words?" I asked, but there was a tremble in my voice.
"What words?" she tilted her head to the left, and her tail tip waved left and right like an upside down pendulum.
"A-About wishing to mate with him and have his egg?"
"Yes." she nodded without showing even the slightest doubt about it.
"Is that so…" I let out another sigh and looked down.
"Oh? Do you like him? You do, don't you?" the dragoness smirked.
"I-I…" blushing, I turned my head away.
I was embarrassed and even though I knew there was no way to hide it anymore, I still couldn't say those words.
"My poor child, you don't have to worry about me!" she patted me on the head.
"What do you mean? You clearly said that you wanted to m-mate with him!" I retorted and glared at her.
"You are blushing like a young girl after being confessed to by the boy she likes." Kataryna showed me a big, wide, grin.
I fell right into her trap.
"Um…" I looked down embarrassed and closed my eyes.
"As I said, I only want him to give me a child, I don't wish to be his lover. I think you are better suited for that spot." she said as she patted me on the shoulder.
"Isn't… Isn't that cheating?" I asked and slowly peeked at her.
"For humans maybe." she shrugged.
"Why isn't it the same for us?" I questioned her.
The dragoness grinned and then all of a sudden pushed me back on the bed, laying on top of me and looking straight into my eyes.
"Because we are dragons, foolish child, and I have achieved Awakened Breakthrough. Once you reach this point, you realize that all of your past beliefs aren't the same anymore. There's no wrong in me wishing to carry the child of a man I found worthy. Besides, I doubt there will ever be another opportunity for me for a very very very long time… However, while I only get one part of him, you get the rest and more. But for me, it's enough because I don't wish for anymore. If the gods have other plans for me, only time will tell." she shrugged.
I listened to her words carefully. The gaze in her eyes was that of a woman who spoke the truth and of someone who wasn't afraid to assume the path they have chosen. After all, carrying the egg of a man who wasn't even her mate's was not something any woman could agree to with such an ease and unwavering determination. At the same time, I was feeling as though if I let her do this, I would lose Alkelios for good.
What if he finds her better than me? She is already an Awakened… She is more beautiful and stronger than me. I am a knight, so I'm not even sure if I will ever be together with him. I began to think, but every word that flowed through my mind brought a sharp pain to my heart.
"Why don't you want him as your mate?" I asked and gulped.
A soft smile appeared on the tips of her lips, and she looked at me with caring eyes for a rather long moment before answering.
"Because I'm not in his heart the same way you are. With me, he's only a friend, and I respect that. Other men wouldn't have hesitated to jump into my arms, but not him… Even throughout this entire journey, he never stopped talking or thinking about you. We all slept together, but he never touched me like he wished to touch you…" she then closed her eyes for a moment "Yet, for me,… it's not painful to see him like this." she opened her eyes "On the contrary, I sort of admire this side of him… As I said, few men can do it. As for why I wish him to offer me an egg, well… it's just that I never had a family before, and I don't think I will have the chance any time too soon. That's why I can only ask him as a friend to help me out. And you… you don't see him as just a friend. You don't want to be just a friend to him, you want more." she smiled.
Even though I didn't want to admit it, I knew she was telling the truth about me. I didn't want to be just friends with him, but there were so many things working against us, so many shadows cast down upon us and threatening to break the little bit of rope tying us together. I was afraid of how we might end up, of where this path would lead us, and of our imminent breakup.
Wouldn't that be too painful for me? But then again, Kataryna only wants him to offer her an egg, while I could have him entirely even if it's going to be just for a little while. But can I do it? I thought while I looked in the dragoness' eyes.
"Yes, I want more… but how can I tell him this?" I closed my eyes and let go of a few tears.
If she was right, then the words he said to me were because he didn't know how I felt. Basically, he stumbled in his own feelings and pulled the wrong strings.
"Well…" she pulled back, but just then, there was a loud crack heard coming from the door.
"Oops! Erm… I didn't mean to… I didn't know you and Kataryna are like this… I mean… I'm sorry… And for the door… Good bye." Alkelios said flustered as he let go of the broken knob and dashed away.
"What's he on about?" asked the silver-scaled dragoness a bit confused.
Looking back, we both noticed at the same time the weird position we were in.
That idiot misunderstood! No, wait! HOW can he misunderstand something like this in the first place?! I screamed in my mind while blushing strongly.
"Well, I do swing that way from time to time. A threesome isn't so bad with the right dragons, you know?" Kataryna winked at me.
"Please stop with the dirty jokes!" I pushed her off me and then ran after Alkelios.
I had to stop that idiot.
[Alkelios' point of view]
Letting out a long, depressed sigh, I bumped my head on the table. The mead was sticky, but I was too annoyed to go wash it off now. Well, one thing was clear, I made a mistake, and my one and only redhead dragoness ran off from me… again.
"I'm an idiot…" I grumbled.
"Well, I usually don't see my sister that mad unless I do something very very stupid. Like stealing her panties and using them as a flag to conquer unknown lands." the black-scaled dragoness said as she sat down in front of me.
She wore a black, slightly ripped, and completely drenched Gothic Lolita dress similar to the armors of the Summoner class in the MMORPG I used play back on Earth. Well, my daily quests were probably expired by now, and so was my 7 days boost.
I let out another sigh as I remembered that I haven't touched a computer in a month now. Well, there was no way to get an internet connection in the middle of a dragon kingdom on another planet in another Universe… right?
"Hello! Are you listening to me?" Kleo poked my cheek.
I bit her.
"HYAN! H-Hey! W-What are you doing?!" she screamed and quickly pulled back her hand.
"Leave me alone…" I grumbled.

Simply Youth Ministry Podcast The BIG 1-Year Celebration Show
The Simply Youth Ministry Podcast turns 1!
As we were recording Show #40 last week we realized we were going to cross the 1-year mark on our little podcast. Who knew that what started out an idea over a below-average meal at a Persian cafe would turn into a youth-ministry-tour-de-force with over 1.4 billion* listeners!
*Youth pastors have been known to exaggerate when talking to other youth pastors about numbers. Some think it is a self-preservation method of defense.
So we're planning a party! Would you help us with the big celebration next week? We'll be accepting ideas and contributions all week long – send us an email with your:
- favorite moments
- quote of the year
- least favorite moment
- youth ministry wisdom highlight (good luck with that one)
- worst moment
- biggest surprise
- nominations for best dressed, least likely to ever get a real job, and other categories you invent!
- what made you laugh
- what made you cry
- what made you hurl
- nominate the episode where Doug's hair looked the thickest
We'll talk about the demise of "chem," the rise of the auido show, Andy's yip and so much more – we'll even present the check for Tanzanian goats from our eBay charity auctions! Get caught up on the latest episodes and send us that email today!
Much podlove from our iTunes to yours,
The SYM Podcast Team

A Moment of Non-Partisanship
I believe it is time to settle this question in Norfolk. And the only way to do so is to put it on the ballot and let the voters decide. I'm willing to abide by the will of the people. Are you? Vivian Paige, writing in the Virginian Pilot
Whether or not our school boards are elected or appointed is a question that only we as residents of Norfolk can-and should answer. It's our duty as responsible citizens in this great city. Me, writing in the New Journal and Guide
It's often said that local issues aren't necessarily partisan ones. Here's proof of that statement.
The issue of whether or not Norfolk's school boards should be elected or appointed is a question that only those who live here-and that means all of us, not just those who represent (in theory) us on City Council-can definitively answer. In order to do that, the question has to go before the electorate on the ballot.
I haven't made up my mind either way, yet. I've seen what an appointed school board can do here, and "I'm not impressed" is probably too generous of a statement. The flipside to that is, having seen and experienced the ugliness of the campaign process, I know I don't want to see that begin to adversely affect my kids or any other's quality of education.
As we both say, though…at present, that's not the issue. The only question that needs an immediate answer is "do you think the people of Norfolk have the right to choose for themselves how their school boards should be selected?"
I say yes…and I believe Vivian would agree.
So should you.
