Stylist-turned-designer Rachel Zoe designed an ultra-glamorous, yet kid-friendly space in the nursery of her Los Angeles home. She combines a white sheepskin rug, a wall of floor-to-ceiling mirrors, and most importantly, an assortment of stuffed animals, including a giraffe that matches the bedding of the luxe Lucite crib.
Kourtney Kardashian created a nursery fit for a princess in her Calabasas, California home. An Hermes throw, geometric-printed rug, and confetti tassel garland above the armoire, all in different shades of pink, are complemented perfectly by a turquoise chandelier above the crib.
E! News host Giuliana Rancic painted the walls blue in her son, Duke's nursery, and added a wall decal of the Chicago skyline.
The gray walls, framed floral prints, and ornate white furniture create a state of serenity in Hilaria Baldwin's New York City nursery. The room is so peaceful that she practices her yoga poses.
Actress Jamie King breaks up her son's all-blue nursery with a London flag painting above the crib.

This project will help students to learn about producing electrical energy using chemical energy.
Additional Description
As a separate option, you can also choose to
upgrade your volt meter from the standard volt meter to a more advanced desktop
multitester.� The more advanced, AMM360, is a desktop analog multitester for measuring DC Volt, AC Volt, DC
Current and Resistance. AMM360 can be used as a very sensitive galvanometer and
can show as low as 0.01 DC voltage. AMM360 can also be used to test transistors
and diodes. This option is perfect if you have a need for the analog multitester
outside of this project or for future experiments as it is more advanced, more
accurate and higher quality.

Global Thought Leaders Converge to Work on Solving Some of the World's Greatest Challenges in Real-Time
FRIDAY HARBOR, WA--(Marketwired - Apr 23, 2014) - Strategic News Service (SNS) is proud to announce that SpaceCurve has been selected as a 2014 FiReStarter company, to be featured at the 12th annual Future in Review (FiRe) conference. Described by The Economist as "the best technology conference in the world," FiRe features global thought leaders in technology and the global economy, including Elon Musk, Mark Hurd, Vint Cerf, Leroy Hood, Patti Grace Smith, Craig Venter, Paul Jacobs, Michael Dell, and many others. FiReStarters are selected based on the strength of their innovations and their potential to bring positive change to the world, and are showcased at an exclusive investor reception at the FiRe conference, in panels throughout the event, and with ongoing relationships introduced and supported by SNS.

10 Cool Drinking Apps for Summer
With the heat of summer wrapping us in its moist and unforgiving embrace, the desire to share a cool refreshing beverage with friends naturally intensifies; no matter if it's over the grill, on the water, or under some leafy shade. Most of us enjoy beer, wine, or spirits, and some of us are even fond of all three. If not at the same time.
If you're a wine drinker and the mercury is rising, you probably prefer white wine and lighter styles of red such as rosé, pinot noir, or some deliciously fruity sangria. If you're a beer lover it's always a good time for a hoppy American IPA, while wheat beers go well with the salads and seafood we all tend to eat more of in the summer months. And let's not forget the cocktails. From the margarita to the mint julep, a well-made caipirinha, or a gin and tonic; when you've got your sweat on these drinks will transport you to paradise.
But what if you're out and want to pick up some ingredients for a cocktail or two but don't know the recipe? There's an app for that. In fact, there are several. We've tracked down two of the best, both available on iOS and Android, so that you'll be sure to find the right ingredientor be able to improvise something delicious from your pantry staples in a pinch—regardless of whether you're a seasoned mixologist or total noob.
We've found social apps that let you track and share which craft brews you've been exploring, and an app for those times you find yourself in an unfamiliar location and need to locate an open store nearby that stocks quality hooch. Should you make it to the aisle and find yourself overwhelmed by the choices, we suggest an app that will recommend the perfect bottle of wine for barbecues and candle-lit dinners alike. We've also found one product—a smartphone breathalyzer—that isn't strictly an app (as it also includes a dongle), but which could be a literal lifesaver for anyone who wants to know if they can safely drive, or whether it'd be better to give the keys to someone else.
Click through to drink in 10 great apps to enhance your summer imbibing. Cheers!

George Zimmerman's attorney is going to ask the state of Florida to pay for some of his client's non-lawyer legal bills.
A spokesman for attorney Mark O'Mara confirmed Tuesday that the lawyer plans to ask the state of Florida to pick up the bill for as much as $300,000 in expenses.
State law allows defendants to get their legal expenses reimbursed by the state if they are acquitted.
Zimmerman was acquitted last month of any crime for fatally shooting 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
The acquittal touched off protests nationwide.
Some of the costs that could be reimbursed include expert witnesses, depositions and an animated video depicting Zimmerman's account of what happened during his fight with Martin last year.

And my Seattle/Portland daily recaps continue!
Day 3 T-Shirt of Choice: And Then I Woke Up by Ugmonk
We had a late start on Day 3 mainly due to the amount of alcohol consumption the day before. That's okay because we kicked the day off by eating a late breakfast/early lunch at Schultzy's Sausage on "The Ave" near the University of Washington. When I visited Seattle 5 years ago this place was a small hole in the wall and I loved eating there. They've renovated since then but the sausage burgers are still amazing! The original Shultzy is my weapon of choice.
We then headed back to the Seattle Waterfront to checkout the Seattle Aquarium, which I thought I had visited before but it turned out that I had mistaken it for the New England Aquarium. The New England Aquarium was awesome. The Seattle Aquarium, not so much. A harbor boat cruise tour  followed (via Argosy Cruises) and we got to see the different Seattle landmarks from a different perspective.
After the cruise we walked through Downtown/Pioneer Square and towards Safeco Field to watch the Mariners play the Yankees. I love going to pro sporting events whenever I'm on the mainland since we have zilch pro sports in Hawaii. I found it interesting that they allowed vendors to sell food right next to the stadium. You could even bring goods inside the stadium except for liquids. Awesome!
We had time to kill before the game so we hopped on over to the Pyramid Brewing Company. Pyramid makes my favorite beer, the Pyramid Hefeweizen (renamed the Pyramid Haywire Hefeweizen). It was a 40 minute wait to get into the restaurant but we hung out in the Beer Garaden and drank a few while we waited to get in- how convenient! Once inside we ordered up some garlic fries (which were amazing) and had, you guessed it, more beer!
After the impromptu beer session we headed to the ball park, just a couple of feet away. We had pretty good seats overlooking left field. The Mariners got off to a good start and then the Yankees kicked it up a notch around the 6th inning. Needless to say, the Mariners lost and the Yankee fans were heckling away like mad men.
After the game we decided to checkout the late night vew from atop the Space Needle. I've never been up there  in the evening and have to say:
1. Much less people around. During the day it's super crowded. If you hate crowds then go at night.
2. The view at night is stunning! It gets chilly up there so bring a jacket.
We chose to eat at the top of the Needle before heading back to our hotel. Another incredible day in the books.
Day 4 T-Shirt of Choice: The Gaming Revolution by Sean Mort (Threadless)
Baseball + Beer = Waking up late the following day. That's exactly what happened. We ended up eating a late breakfast in the hotel. Not ideal but it did the trick.
So the whole reason why we made Seattle our destination for the now 4th Annual Guys Trip was because the good friend of one of my buddies was getting married. Today was the wedding ceremony and reception! The ceremony was held at the Sylvan Grove on the grounds of the University of Washington. It was a rather beautiful ceremony that incorporated both American and Cambodian customs.
