A few months ago, Endeavor Insight released a report titled, "What do the best entrepreneurs want in a city?" Based on surveys and interviews with 150 founders of some of the nation's fastest-growing companies, the researchers identified four key "lessons" about what these business innovators value in a metropolitan area.
Two of the lessons will surprise no one: Successful entrepreneurs want a location where they can hire from an ample pool of talented people, and they want ready access to customers and suppliers.
The other two key findings? One is that these company founders "rarely cite low tax rates or business-friendly regulations as reasons for starting a business in a specific city." And at the top of the list drawn up by Endeavor Insight is the finding that "entrepreneurs at fast-growing firms usually decide where to live based on personal connections and quality-of-life factors many years before they start their firms."
In other words, places with a strong sense of community and superior quality of life attract the types of people who succeed as entrepreneurs.
Does this sound like any place you know? Yeah, I thought it would.
The quality of life in the Rochester region is not exactly a secret. Indeed, in the past few years Rochester has been recognized by, among others, "Places Rated Almanac" (ranking sixth in its 25th edition) and Yahoo Travel (the Finger Lakes earned a place on its worldwide list of 10 "lakeside vacations that have it all"). But some people—here and elsewhere—seem unaware or doubtful of Rochester's virtues as a place to live.
In part as a response to that, in 2003 we launched Explore Greater Rochester, a guide to all the region has to offer. Since then, Explore Greater Rochester has become multifaceted: It is an annual RBJ supplement, a website (with a mobile version), a digital publication, a page in the Friday print edition and a weekly email. They all have unique qualities but a common purpose: To help both residents and visitors discover what makes the Rochester region a special place.
As noted here a year ago, 2013 was a year of big changes for Explore Greater Rochester. Chief among them was our new partnership with Visit Rochester, the region's premier tourism organization. With it, Explore Greater Rochester became the official Visit Rochester guide—and its reach, in print and online, grew dramatically. This partnership continues with the 2014 edition, delivered to RBJ subscribers as a supplement to this week's issue and distributed to a wide geographic area by Visit Rochester.
The chapters in the print and digital editions of Explore Greater Rochester—not to mention its companion website, exploregreaterrochester.com—cover a wide range of topics including arts and entertainment, museums, sports and recreation, parks and gardens, special events, dining, shopping, wineries and easy day trips. (On the website, you can map out visits to the locations listed.) The new edition also has a redesigned Upfront section with a diverse sampling of things to see and do. But we make no claim to have included everything that gives Rochester a right to boast.
We see Explore Greater Rochester—in all its forms—as a place to start if you want to fully appreciate our region's offerings, from the George Eastman House and the Strong National Museum of Play to the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra and Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival to Highland Park, the Lake Ontario shore and much more.
Do other cities have a lot of offer too? Sure. Does Rochester face economic challenges? Of course. But viewed in the context of the Endeavor Insight list, our region seems well-positioned for a bright future—with the makings of a strong knowledge-based workforce, a good location and, yes, a community that's a good place to call home.
As for those tax rates and regulations that apparently don't scare away many founders of fast-growth companies, well, we're working on it.

April 20, 2006
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Training camps for the 2006 Women's National Basketball Association season open on Monday, April 24, featuring five former UC Santa Barbara players who are vying for roster spots on five different teams.
Erin Buescher (1998-2000) will try to help the Sacramento Monarchs repeat as WNBA champions, while Kristen Mann (2002-05) enters her second year with the Minnesota Lynx on the heels of a busy off-season. Meanwhile Kayte Christensen (1999-2002), April McDivitt (2004) and Lindsay Taylor (2001-04) recently signed free-agent contracts with the Houston Comets, Washington Mystics and Seattle Storm, respectively.
Following a one-year hiatus from the league, Buescher averaged 3.3 points and 1.6 rebounds while shooting a sparking 70.0% (28-of-40) and helping Sacramento win its first WNBA title in 2005. A second round draft pick of the Minnesota Lynx in 2001, she played one season there before spending the next two as a member of the Charlotte Sting. In 98 career WNBA games, the 6'2" guard from Rohnert Park, Calif., is averaging 3.7 points and 2.5 rebounds.
As a Gaucho, Buescher ranks fourth in school history with 1,697 career points, a feat accomplished in only three seasons before transferring to The Master's College for her senior campaign in 2000-01. Her 864 career boards are also fourth-best, while her 18.1 career scoring average is easily a UCSB record. The three-time Big West Conference Player of the Year was also a Third Team Associated Press All-American in 1999-00.
Christensen appeared in 103 career games with the Phoenix Mercury from 2002-05 before being released midway through last season. In 2003 she enjoyed her finest campaign, averaging 6.9 points and 4.2 rebounds while starting 16 contests; for her career the 6'3" forward from Alturas, Calif., has posted 3.8 points and 2.9 boards per tilt. After playing with professional teams in Turkey and South Korea this off-season, Christensen was added to the Comets' roster on March 23.
Christensen capped her UCSB career as the Big West Player of the Year and an honorable mention Kodak All-American in 2001-02. Her 54.9% career field goal percentage is second-best in school history, while she also ranks ninth in rebounds with 807. She averaged 11.9 points and 7.3 boards as a Gaucho from 1999-2002 before being chosen by Phoenix in the third round of the 2002 Draft.
In April of 2005 the Lynx selected Mann 11th overall in the WNBA Draft, highest-ever for a former Santa Barbara player. The native of Santa Ana, Calif., averaged 3.0 points and 1.5 rebounds during her first season in Minnesota, scoring a career-high 11 points against Phoenix on Aug. 21. Following her inaugural season in the league, Mann played briefly with a professional team in Zaragoza, Spain, embarked on a three-game tour of Europe with the U.S. Senior National Team and completed her Bachelor's degree in women's studies at UCSB.
As a Gaucho senior in 2004-05 Mann enjoyed one of the best seasons in school history earning Big West Player of the Year recognition and honorable mention All-American acclaim after averaging 19.5 points and 9.5 rebounds, both placing among the top-30 players nationally. The 6'2" forward ranks third all-time at UCSB with 1,700 career points and seventh with 820 boards as a Gaucho, while her career scoring average of 14.9 is second-best.
McDivitt - currently a Gaucho assistant coach - signed a free-agent contract on March 30 with the Mystics, her third WNBA club in as many seasons. The 5'7" point guard played in one preseason game with the New York Liberty in 2004, and two exhibition contests with the Minnesota Lynx before suffering a shoulder injury. In her lone season at UCSB after transferring from Tennessee, McDivitt was named honorable mention All-Big West in 2003-04 and helped the Gauchos advance to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the first time in program history.
Originally a second-round choice of the Houston Comets in 2004, Taylor was traded to the Phoenix Mercury on draft day and appeared in five games that year with her hometown team before being released during the 2005 preseason. This past off-season the Chandler, Ariz., native averaged 16.5 points per game for Botasspor of the Turkish First Division, helping her land a free-agent contract with the Seattle Storm on April 13.
Taylor is Santa Barbara's all-time leading scorer, shot blocker and most accurate shooter, amassing 1,767 points, 243 stuffs and a 55.9% field goal percentage as a Gaucho from 2001-04. She was a four-time All-Big West selection, highlighted by player of the year honors as a junior when she was also an honorable mention Associated Press All-American. Taylor averaged 14.0 points and 7.0 rebounds during her UCSB career.
In addition to the aforementioned players, former Gauchos Erin Alexander (1994-97), Stacy Clinesmith (1997-2000) and Erika Kienast (1989-92) enjoyed careers in the WNBA as well.

State lacks funds for idea
There's not much on paper yet regarding the latest talk of using public taxpayer dollars to finance political campaigns in New York state, but we think such a proposal would make little difference in leveling the political playing field.
We also think our state, struggling to pay for necessities like education, doesn't have the money to burden taxpayers with millions to fund state elections.
According to a recent Associated Press story, such a proposal could cost $200 million. We agree with Senate Republican leader Dean Skelos when he said, "That's money that would be much better spent on property tax relief or investing more money in rural upstate school districts and underperforming school districts around the state."
Also, David Primo, political science professor of the University of Rochester said no conclusive study shows giving money to people to run for office attracts stronger candidates, increases voter turnout or makes races more competitive.
Cecilia Tkaczyk is driving a plan that would use taxpayer dollars to match campaign contributions and limit big donations. It looks like at this point, the public financing would be voluntary.
Tkaczyk's campaign received a boost from $250,000 from Super PAC Friends of Democracy, which spent the money on an ad campaign independent of Tkaczyk.
One of the SuperPAC's founding members is activist Jonathan Soros, a Manhattan hedge fund manager and son of billionaire donor to liberal causes George Soros.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said earlier this month he is interested in legislation to overhaul the state's campaign finance laws.
Some are proposing a financing system for state election similar to one used in New York City. That system matches small donations with public taxpayer dollars if candidates must agree to strict spending limits.
A public funding program for presidential elections exists on the federal level. Qualified candidates can receive federal taxpayer dollars to pay for campaign expenses in both primary and general elections.
This conversation has been ongoing for more than a century. The first public financing legislation was proposed in 1907 for the presidential election, and, in that same year, President Theodore Roosevelt recommended public financing of federal elections and a ban on private contributions.
We don't expect the debate to end soon. However, the state simply does not have the money to finance campaigns.

Konrad Bayer
The Printed HeadVolume III, Number 7
His desires were limitless, he wanted to fly, to make himself invisible, he wanted to be able to do everything. - Gerhard Rühm
the head of vitus bering, the second major publication of the Austrian writer Konrad Bayer (1932-1964), was the most important work written during the existence of the so-called Vienna Group, a constellation of highly gifted, radically experimental writers bent on creating a new tradition out of the ashes of the Second World War. Gerhard Rühm and H. C. Artmann, two colleagues during this period, describe the book variously as Bayer's "pinnacle" and "a magnificent book. Bayer's true biography, composed with poetry and elegance." But Bayer's own description is more telling: "perhaps a trepanation."
Constructed from a montage of events, images, facts and allusions that "unite and coordinate the past and future to one point," Bayer turns the historical adventure of the sea captain Vitus Bering, who sailed to discover whether America was linked to Asia, into a metaphor for inner voyage and ultimate liberation "from opinions and thoughts." Against the backdrop of a chilling "outside" reality in which the logic of a mechanical universe is beginning to run riot, and all subjective distance washed away, the reader is drawn into a vortex of unnerving paradoxes, a calculating machine of sublime horrors - "the birth pangs of initiation."

CHRISTINE DILLON, PLAINTIFF,v.MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, DEFENDANT.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Paul L. Abrams United States Magistrate Judge
Plaintiff filed this action on October 6, 2009, seeking review of the Commissioner's denial of her applications for Disability Insurance Benefits and Supplemental Security Income payments. The parties filed Consents to proceed before the undersigned Magistrate Judge on October 27, 2009, and November 10, 2009. The parties filed a Joint Stipulation on May 5, 2010, that addresses their positions concerning the disputed issues in the case. The Court has taken the Joint Stipulation under submission without oral argument.
Plaintiff was born on May 4, 1955. [Administrative Record ("AR") at 9, 29, 109, 113.] She completed seventh grade and some college, but does not have a high school equivalency degree. [Id. at 29.] She also holds certificates as a certified nursing assistant and in armed guard security. [Id. at 29-30.] Plaintiff has past relevant work experience as a security guard and day care provider. [Id. at 22, 131.]
Plaintiff protectively filed her applications for Disability Insurance Benefits and Supplemental Security Income payments on August 21, 2008, alleging that she has been unable to work since August 2, 2008, because of "chronic back and neck problems, pinch [sic] nerve; fibromyalgia; congestive heart failure, chronic bronchitis[.]" [Id. at 109-12, 113-16, 122; JS at 2.] After her applications were denied, plaintiff requested a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ"). [AR at 69-74, 77.] A hearing was held on June 16, 2009, at which plaintiff appeared with counsel and testified on her own behalf. [Id. at 26-52.] A vocational expert also testified at the hearing. [Id. at 43-50.]
On August 13, 2009, the ALJ determined that plaintiff was not disabled. [Id. at 7-23.] When the Appeals Council denied plaintiff's request for review of the hearing decision on September 23, 2009, the ALJ's decision became the final decision of the Commissioner. [Id. at 1-3.] This action followed.
Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), this Court has authority to review the Commissioner's decision to deny benefits. The decision will be disturbed only if it is not supported by substantial evidence or if it is based upon the application of improper legal standards. Moncada v. Chater, 60 F.3d 521, 523 (9th Cir. 1995); Drouin v. Sullivan, 966 F.2d 1255, 1257 (9th Cir. 1992).
In this context, the term "substantial evidence" means "more than a mere scintilla but less than a preponderance -- it is such relevant evidence that a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support the conclusion." Moncada, 60 F.3d at 523; see also Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1257. When determining whether substantial evidence exists to support the Commissioner's decision, the Court examines the administrative record as a whole, considering adverse as well as supporting evidence. Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1257; Hammock v. Bowen, 879 F.2d 498, 501 (9th Cir. 1989). Where the evidence is susceptible to more than one rational interpretation, the Court must defer to the decision of the Commissioner. Moncada, 60 F.3d at 523; Andrews v. Shalala, 53 F.3d 1035, 1039-40 (9th Cir. 1995); Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1258.
Persons are "disabled" for purposes of receiving Social Security benefits if they are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity owing to a physical or mental impairment that is expected to result in death or which has lasted or is expected to last for a continuous period of at least twelve months. 42 U.S.C. § 423(d)(1)(A); Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1257.
The Commissioner (or ALJ) follows a five-step sequential evaluation process in assessing whether a claimant is disabled. 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1520, 416.920; Lester v. Chater, 81 F.3d 821, 828 n.5 (9th Cir. 1995, as amended April 9, 1996). In the first step, the Commissioner must determine whether the claimant is currently engaged in substantial gainful activity; if so, the claimant is not disabled and the claim is denied. Id. If the claimant is not currently engaged in substantial gainful activity, the second step requires the Commissioner to determine whether the claimant has a "severe" impairment or combination of impairments significantly limiting her ability to do basic work activities; if not, a finding of non-disability is made and the claim is denied. Id. If the claimant has a "severe" impairment or combination of impairments, the third step requires the Commissioner to determine whether the impairment or combination of impairments meets or equals an impairment in the Listing of Impairments ("Listing") set forth at 20 C.F.R., Part 404, Subpart P, Appendix 1; if so, disability is conclusively presumed and benefits are awarded. Id.
If the claimant's impairment or combination of impairments does not meet or equal an impairment in the Listing, the fourth step requires the Commissioner to determine whether the claimant has sufficient "residual functional capacity" to perform her past work; if so, the claimant is not disabled and the claim is denied. Id. The claimant has the burden of proving that she is unable to perform past relevant work. Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1257. If the claimant meets this burden, a prima facie case of disability is established. The Commissioner then bears the burden of establishing that the claimant is not disabled, because she can perform other substantial gainful work available in the national economy. The determination of this issue comprises the fifth and final step in the sequential analysis. 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1520, 416.920; Lester, 81 F.3d at 828 n.5; Drouin, 966 F.2d at 1257.
At step one, the ALJ determined that plaintiff did not engage in any substantial gainful activity during the period of time between August 2, 2008 (the alleged onset date of disability), and March 31, 2009 (the date the ALJ determined that plaintiff was last insured for Disability Insurance Benefits purposes). [AR at 20.] At step two, the ALJ concluded that plaintiff has the severe impairment of low back syndrome. [Id.] At step three, the ALJ determined that plaintiff's impairment does not, either individually or in combination, meet or equal any of the impairments listed in 20 C.F.R., Part 404, Subpart P, Appendix 1. [Id.] The ALJ further found that plaintiff retained the residual functional capacity ("RFC")*fn1 "to perform the full range of light work"*fn2 as defined in 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1567 and 416.967. [Id.] At step four, the ALJ concluded ...

Holly Williams On Mountain Stage
Singer-songwriter Holly Williams makes her first appearance on Mountain Stage, recorded live at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, W.Va. Williams' lineage is as close to royalty as country music can get — her grandfather is Hank Williams, and her father is Hank Williams Jr. — but her voice as a songwriter and singer is uniquely her own.
Holly Williams opens the set with one of the strongest tracks from her new album, The Highway, which begins with the line, "Why are you drinkin' like the night is young?" Williams released her first EP in 2003 after touring Europe with Ron Sexsmith. Dates followed with Keith Urban and Kasey Chambers, but Williams was forced to take a three-year break from performing following a near-fatal 2006 car accident. The Highway was recorded with Civil Wars producer Charlie Peacock, and features contributions from Jakob Dylan, Jackson Browne and Gwyneth Paltrow. For her Mountain Stage set, Williams plays guitar and piano, and is backed by guitarist Anderson East.
Set List
- "Drinkin'"
- "Gone Away From Me"
- "Railroads"
- "Happy"
- "Without You"
- "Waiting On June"

While all those newly-moved-in dorm-room accessories and newly purchased textbooks may seem invaluable as the school year is starting, where will they end up after finals are over?
At the end of every academic year the Barnard EcoReps organize "Give and Go Green," an initiative designed to reduce the amount of waste thrown away by students as they move out of their residence halls. The EcoReps, Barnard's student-environmentalist group, hope that Give and Go Green can be a great opportunity to teach students about being environmentally responsible and how easily their trash can be reduced and reused.
"Every year, we throw out perfectly useable clothes, appliances, books, toiletries, and more because we simply can't keep them over the summer," says last year's Eco-Rep coordinator, Holly Menten-Weil '10. "Instead of giving all of that to the landfill, we can give it to someone in need!"
Barnard partners with the Salvation Army, Goodwill, Rock and Wrap it Up, the 114th Broadway/ Presbyterian church, and other organizations who help distribute the donated items to New Yorkers in need.
This year the Barnard EcoReps and a team of 25 volunteers worked to collect, sort, store and organize the fourtruckloads of donations. "It is an immense effort that really pulls together members of the entire community, says Menten-Weil. "Everyone rallies together to make sure that all the donations find a home and stay out of a landfill."

What are these?
Simply put, these are a mixture of photography shoots from conceptial design point of view and a story to tell. Much like the "stock images" in advertising world but only in LEGO. The presentation of the images and the story they tell are more prioritised than creations and building skills.
Why are you doing this?
Well, i have a camera now and quite a collection of LEGO. What is a guy who dont build much gonna do? So I present to you the result of a small self exercise, in anycase should the image(s) proved useful in your assigments or what not, feel free to use them.
But mostly they are here to give you a simple smirk.

This summary is about cancer patients who smoke, why it is important to stop smoking, and ways to get help. It includes information on the following:
Smoking increases the risk of cancer.
Smoking is the leading cause of cancer in the United States. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women in the United States. If you smoke, your risk of cancer can be up to 10 times higher than it is for a person who never smoked.
Smoking increases cancer risk by:
Your risk depends on how much and how long you have smoked.
Lung cancer and other types of cancers are linked to tobacco use.
Cancer risks linked to tobacco use include the following:
See the following for more information:
Quitting smoking is helpful after cancer is diagnosed.
Studies have found that smokers who quit are more likely to recover from cancer than are patients who continue to smoke.
If you keep smoking, you may not respond well to treatment.
If you continue to smoke during cancer treatment, you may not respond to treatment as well as patients who do not smoke. Also, you may have worse side effects from treatment. For example, patients who are given radiation therapy for laryngeal cancer are less likely to get their voice back to normal if they keep smoking.
Wounds from surgery heal more slowly in patients who keep smoking. Studies have found that prostate cancer patients who keep smoking have a higher risk of the cancer coming back, and of death from prostate cancer. However, prostate cancer patients who quit smoking for 10 years or longer lower their risk of death to about the same as nonsmokers.
Cancer patients who keep smoking increase their risk of having a second cancer.
You have a higher risk of a second cancer if you keep smoking, whether you have a cancer that is smoking-related or not smoking-related. The risk of a second cancer may last for up to 20 years, even if the first cancer has been treated and is in remission (signs and symptoms of cancer have disappeared). Patients with oral and pharyngeal cancer who smoke have a high risk of a second cancer, but the risk is much less after 5 years of not smoking.
Counseling may make it easier for you to quit smoking.
It is not easy to quit smoking and research has shown that people are more likely to quit if they have help. Mood changes are common in cancer patients and in people who smoke or are trying to quit smoking. Talk with your doctor if you have feelings of depression. Your doctor can offer counseling or other ways to help you quit smoking and treat depression when needed.
Not all smokers are motivated to quit. If you are not motivated to quit smoking, your doctor may be able to help you become motivated.
Your doctor or other health care professional may take the following steps to help you quit:
It may take more than one try to quit smoking completely.
When you first quit smoking, it is common to start again. There will be many stressful times that will make you want to smoke. Counseling can help you find ways to handle the stress other than by smoking. It may take more than a year to quit smoking completely, even when you are motivated.
You can find help online.
The following websites may be helpful:
There are different ways to stop smoking.
Different ways to stop smoking work for different patients. Some smokers can quit with the help of counseling, while others may need medicines to help them quit.
Nicotine replacement therapy may help you quit smoking.
When you are trying to quit smoking, nicotine replacement therapy may help you with withdrawal symptoms, such as:
Nicotine replacement products include the following:
Talk with your doctor before you start any form of treatment. Nicotine replacement products can cause problems in some people, especially:
Other medicines may also help you quit smoking.
The following drugs, which do not have nicotine in them, are used to help people quit smoking:
These medicines lessen nicotine craving and nicotine withdrawal symptoms.
Fluoxetine causes an increased risk of suicide in adults younger than 25 years. In July 2009, the FDA warned that varenicline and bupropion may cause depression, suicide, and other mental health changes in patients who take them. These changes include:
These mental health changes may occur in patients with or without a history of psychiatric illness and it is not known if nicotine withdrawal is a part of this. (See the Depression and Suicide section in the PDQ summary on Pediatric Supportive Care.)
All patients taking these medicines, especially those with a history of psychiatric illness, should be followed closely by a doctor.
The FDA recommends that the important health benefits of quitting smoking be weighed against the small but serious risk of problems with the use of these drugs.

About PDQ
Physician Data Query (PDQ) is the National Cancer Institute's (NCI's) comprehensive cancer information database. The PDQ database contains summaries of the latest published information on cancer prevention, detection, genetics, treatment, supportive care, and complementary and alternative medicine. Most summaries come in two versions. The health professional versions have detailed information written in technical language. The patient versions are written in easy-to-understand, nontechnical language. Both versions have cancer information that is accurate and up to date and most versions are also available in Spanish.
PDQ is a service of the NCI. The NCI is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). NIH is the federal government's center of biomedical research. The PDQ summaries are based on an independent review of the medical literature. They are not policy statements of the NCI or the NIH.
Purpose of This Summary
This PDQ cancer information summary has current information about the risks of continued smoking in cancer patients and ways to stop. It is meant to inform and help patients, families, and caregivers. It does not give formal guidelines or recommendations for making decisions about health care.
Reviewers and Updates
Editorial Boards write the PDQ cancer information summaries and keep them up to date. These Boards are made up of experts in cancer treatment and other specialties related to cancer. The summaries are reviewed regularly and changes are made when there is new information. The date on each summary ("Date Last Modified") is the date of the most recent change.
The information in this patient summary was taken from the health professional version, which is reviewed regularly and updated as needed, by the PDQ Supportive and Palliative Care Editorial Board.
Clinical Trial Information
A clinical trial is a study to answer a scientific question, such as whether one treatment is better than another. Trials are based on past studies and what has been learned in the laboratory. Each trial answers certain scientific questions in order to find new and better ways to help cancer patients. During treatment clinical trials, information is collected about the effects of a new treatment and how well it works. If a clinical trial shows that a new treatment is better than one currently being used, the new treatment may become "standard." Patients may want to think about taking part in a clinical trial. Some clinical trials are open only to patients who have not started treatment.
Clinical trials are listed in PDQ and can be found online at NCI's Web site. Many cancer doctors who take part in clinical trials are also listed in PDQ. For more information, call the Cancer Information Service 1-800-4-CANCER (1-800-422-6237).

Brian 'Head' Welch Announces New Band Name and Upcoming Project
Former Korn guitarist Brian 'Head' Welch has been making his mark in music with his own band since 2009 and now the group will now go by the name Love & Death.
Welch says, "We've experienced some very intense highs and lows. Michael Valentine, Dan Johnson, J.R. Bareis and myself have toured around the world playing a lot of killer shows, but we've also had some heart shattering difficulties along the way as well." He continues, "To us, the name 'Love and Death' symbolizes everything we've been through as a band over the last few years. We love this band so much and we'll go through hell to connect with our fans. We've proven that to ourselves over and over again."
Welch also explains that naming the band avoids any confusion between public speaking seminars and concert dates. "Many people have confused my speaking dates and our band dates because they were both being booked as Brian Head Welch. I have wanted to use a band name for branding my music for a few years. It has been an ongoing discussion with my management, but we were just starting to tour and I was in the middle of supporting my third book and it seemed like a bad time to switch names."
He goes on to say, "Now with the new music coming out, its time to really separate the things I do. I want the music to be about music. I will still be doing public speaking under Brian Head Welch. I am happy that all the confusion will be over." Welch held auditions for the band in 2009 via YouTube and he says, "Over the last couple of years, there have been a few line up changes as we went through normal growing pains. The current band has been together and touring for a while now and they are a big part of the new music and the future of LOVE & DEATH."
The outfit's most recent single 'Paralyzed' was released under the name Brian 'Head' Welch, and has been heating up music charts. Love & Death will be releasing their first project on April 24. A single titled 'Chemicals' will drop in March, and it will be accompanied by a semi-animated music video.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- According to executives at Pandora (P, the Ford (F - Get Report) teams working on in-vehicle entertainment platforms operate like mini-startups.This is Ford. Not a Silicon Valley name. But, at least in the Sync division, it rolls like a Silicon Valley company. And it's taking names. I experienced Sync for a couple of weeks over summer. It's strong, but has room to get better as technology catches up with aspirations. Like Starbucks ( SBUX - Get Report), Ford, somewhat unexpectedly, thinks like a tech company. It's no surprise then that Ford also gets social media. The two areas flow naturally from one another. You might recall the General Motors (GM - Get Report) pulls its advertising from Facebook (FB - Get Report) and the Super Bowl controversy of May 2012. The entire affair proved one thing: Time has passed GM by. In the above-linked article, words from a Ford spokesman support the notion that the company gets social and digital media; GM doesn't. To its credit, Ford allows an innovative, startup culture to not only exist, but thrive in at least parts of a heritage American institution. As bearish as I have been on the company's stock, it's tough to root against Ford. I can't help but want to see fresh, forward-looking and acting companies succeed. That brings us to Bank of America ( BAC - Get Report). I get it. The stock is a bargain. Bank of America is getting its stuff together; it's a strong buy. I can't deny that. But that's not the point here. The storyline behind Bank of America's recent move to "take on" Square with its Mobile Pay on Demand card reader underscores the brain drain that holds back loads of companies who refuse to step into the decade and eat, sleep, drink and live like a tech company. TheStreet's Chris Ciaccia wrote a bang-up, spot-on article scoffing at Bank of America's chances against Square and, more important, ridiculing its can't do attitude. Chris included a quote from BAC vice president of strategy and emerging products division, Trevor Rubel, that should get him fired (not Chris, Rubel).
I hate to come out with a commodity product, but every bank should have one.That guy should have been blown out immediately. What a pathetic way to respond. But, as Ciaccia noted, what should we expect from a company doing nothing other than making a feeble attempt to copy Square?

Clint Eastwood has thrown his support to Mitt Romney.
Clint Eastwood officially endorsed Mitt Romney on Friday evening, during a fundraiser for the presumptive Republican candidate in Sun Valley, Idaho.
According to a pool report, Eastwood told the crowd that he was backing the Republican candidate because "the country needs a boost."
Eastwood, long considered one of Hollywood's most influential conservatives, had been sitting in the audience at a 325-person fundraiser when Romney spotted him and asked him to come to the stage.
Photos from THR: 20 biggest political players in Hollywood
"There is a guy here from the world of acting," Romney said, "who has pursued his dreams in a very unusual way: He stood up to the industry and did things his own way."
The crowd at the Sun Valley Resort lodge applauded and pointed at Eastwood, according to the pool report.
Romney asked, "Can I get Clint Eastwood to come up here and say hi to everybody?"
Eastwood greeted the candidate warmly and then took the microphone: "This is very nice to be here today, tonight, today. Let's clear the smoke.
"I was doing a picture in early 2000s called 'Mystic River' in his home state," said Eastwood. "At that time, Gov. Romney was running for governor. I said, 'God, this guy is too handsome to be governor, but he does look like he could be president.' As the years have gone by, I'm beginning to think even more so that. He's going to restore a decent tax system that we need badly so that there is a fairness and people are not pitted against one another of whose paying taxes and who isn't.
Photos from THR: Young Hollywood's secret breakfast with Obama
"Also, we don't want anybody taking away the Olympic medals, tax-wise, from the Olympic athletes," he continued. "The government is talking about getting a couple of nickels. It's now more important than ever that we need Gov. Romney, and I'm going to be voting for him as I know most of you will be. ... We've got to just spread the word and get the whole country behind this."
Romney then took back the microphone: "He just made my day. What a guy."
Earlier this year, Eastwood made waves when a Super Bowl commercial for Chrysler that he appeared in was interpreted as a nod to President Obama. The actor denied the allegation in interviews. He tersely told Fox: "l am certainly not politically affiliated with Mr. Obama. It was meant to be a message about job growth and the spirit of America."
On Friday, there was no doubt that Eastwood was a Romney man.

One week after outside linebacker Sergio Kindle was active for the Ravens' 24-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the former second-round draft pick was a healthy scratch for tonight's game against the New England Patriots at M&T Bank Stadium.
Kindle had a tackle against the Eagles, but didn't mount much of a pass rush.
Meanwhile, wide receiver Torrey Smith is active for tonight's game following the death of his younger brother in a motorcycle accident.
Offensive tackle Jah Reid (strained right calf) was deactivated.
Reid was doubtful on the final injury report.
Cornerback Asa Jackson, tight end Billy Bajema, defensive lineman DeAngelo Tyson and Bryan Hall and wide receiver LaQuan Williams were all inactive for the third consecutive game.

Fact Sheet
Combination Medications
January 6, 2014
What Are Combination Medications?
Combination medications are pills or tablets that contain more than one medication to fight HIV. They are listed in the tables below. Pharmaceutical companies have been working hard to make their medications easier to take. Part of this effort has been to combine more than one medication in a single pill. These combinations are referred to as fixed-dose combinations, or FDCs.
The first FDC to treat HIV was Combivir by ViiV Healthcare*, which includes 3 nukes. Some combination antiviral products are only available outside the US through the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR.) For more information, see Fact Sheet 925 or www.pepfar.gov. This fact sheet includes only products approved for sale in the United States.
Be sure that you do not take a combination medication along with any of its components! For example, do not take Truvada with tenofovir (Viread) or emtricitabine (Emtriva); do not take Combivir along with zidovudine (Retrovir) or lamivudine (Epivir.)
What Are PK Boosters?
When some medications are taken by mouth, their levels in the blood are very low. For them to fight HIV, they have to be taken at high doses. Another possibility is to "boost" their blood levels. This is done by slowing down the processing (metabolism) of these drugs. A drug that slows down the metabolism is called a "PK booster." PK stands for pharmacokinetic. This refers to the way that medications are processed by the body.
The first PK booster used in HIV was ritonavir by Abbott. Ritonavir slows down the metabolism of many drugs by the liver. This increases the blood levels of some anti-HIV medications so that a lower dose can be taken. However, it can also increase blood levels of many other drugs. In some cases, this can cause a harmful overdose.
A second PK booster by Gilead Sciences, cobicistat (GS-9350,) was approved in 2012 as part of Stribild (see Fact Sheet 473.) Other PK boosters are being developed.
1. Combinations of Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors ("Nukes")
2. Combinations of a Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor and Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
3. Combinations With Protease Inhibitors
NOTE: a small dose of ritonavir is used to boost blood levels of other protease inhibitors. The amount of ritonavir is not high enough to fight HIV.
4. Combinations With Integrase Inhibitors
(Note: a small dose of ritonavir or cobicistat is used to boost blood levels of the integrase inhibitor.)
NOTE: There are many combination medications approved as part of the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. For more information, see www.fda.gov/oia/pepfar.htm.

It's March 2, and even after February had an extra day in it this year, Tennessee is somehow still hemorrhaging assistant coaches.
According to a report from Tennessee Rivals affiliate Volquest.com and confirmed by CBSSports.com's Bruce Feldman, Vol defensive backs coach (and recruiting coordinator) Terry Joseph has resigned to accept the same position at Nebraska. The Huskers' secondary coaching position came open when LSU hired Bayou Bengal alum Corey Raymond away from Nebraska Feb. 27. Joseph served as a graduate assistant under Huskers head coach Bo Pelini during Pelini's tenure as defensive coordinator at (you guessed it) LSU.
Joseph becomes the seventh Volunteer assistant to depart Derek Dooley's struggling program this offseason, with his decision ensuring that Dooley will enter the 2012 season with an entirely new defensive staff. The only holdovers from the Vols' 2011 staff will be offensive coordinator Jim Chaney and current wide receivers coach Darin Hinshaw. With Hinshaw having moved to the receivers' role after coaching quarterbacks last season, not one position on the Vol depth chart will be coached by the same position coach as in 2011.
On the one hand, Joseph's individual departure isn't that big a deal; it comes too late to make any impact on the 2012 recruiting class, but early enough that Dooley should be able to repair the damage both in terms of the 2013 class and in finding someone worthwhile to coach DB's before the 2012 season.
On the other, every shred of stability Dooley could hang onto in a program that's been reeling ever since its season-ending defeat at Kentucky is a huge help, and losing seven assistants in a matter of months -- many of them in moves there's no way other to describe other than "lateral" -- not only erodes that stability, it creates the image of a program that's unstable enough to have its head coach dismissed if things don't turn around.
That image, in turn, does make the program more unstable. Dooley still has plenty going for him, but the lack of confidence shown in him and his program by his now-former assistants has made what already shaped up as a make-or-break season that much more difficult. If there's a coach in the SEC in more dire need of a positive spring camp, we haven't seen him.
Keep up with the latest college football news from around the country. From the opening kick of the year all the way through the offseason, CBSSports.com has you covered with this daily newsletter. View a preview.

Pentagon says chaplains may perform gay weddings
WASHINGTON — The Defense Department issued new guidelines Friday that allow military chaplains to officiate at same-sex weddings, on or off military installations, in states where such weddings are allowed.
No chaplain is required to participate in a same-sex wedding, if it violates personal or religious beliefs, the Pentagon said. Since the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act prohibits the federal recognition of same-sex marriages, the department wouldn't endorse them, it added.
"The guidance issued today strikes the right balance between respecting the faith traditions of chaplains and affording all service members the same rights under current law," said Aubrey Sarvis, an Army veteran and the executive director of the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network, a gay rights organization.
The Pentagon is treading carefully around the unsettled issue as it transitions away from the longstanding prohibition against gay service members declaring their sexuality.
Though "don't ask, don't tell" is now history, some Republican members of Congress want the Pentagon to prohibit same-sex weddings, and the House Armed Services Committee passed amendments to the 2012 defense appropriations bill last year that are intended to require that.
One by Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., would ban military chaplains and Pentagon employees from participating in same-sex weddings and would prohibit the use of military installations for such purposes. The Democratic-majority Senate has yet to consider the legislation.
Akin sent a letter to Navy Secretary Ray Mabus in May, signed by 62 other members of Congress, when the Navy issued its own guidelines permitting chaplains to officiate over same-sex weddings, anticipating the eventual end of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
"We find it difficult to understand how the military is somehow exempt from abiding by federal law," the letter said. "Offering up federal facilities and federal employees for same-sex marriages violates DOMA, which is still the law of the land and binds our military, including chaplains."
Six states and the District of Columbia now allow same-sex marriage. The Obama Justice Department has stopped defending the Defense of Marriage Act in court and President Barack Obama has called for its repeal.
For gay and lesbian service members, the end of "don't ask, don't tell" presents a new challenge: gaining for same-sex couples the same housing, medical and family support benefits that are available to opposite-sex couples. Federal law and the Uniform Code of Military Justice currently prevent that.
"Same work, same risk, same sacrifice equals same pay and benefits," Sarvis said. "Now that's not going to be true for legally married gay and lesbian service members. And it's an inequity that service members are going to complain about, and I believe their commanders in the field will be receptive when the troops point out this inequity."
"Just on the face of it, you'd think there would be an equal protection claim there," said Rep. David Price, D-N.C., a co-sponsor of legislation to repeal the federal law.
Sarvis said his organization and its allies were pursuing a fix through Congress and the courts, but that it would be in the best interest of the Pentagon and Congress to resolve the issue themselves rather than having the courts make a decision that affected the military.
"It's pretty extraordinary when our courts are directing the armed forces," he said. "That's not a scenario the executive branch or the armed forces are comfortable with."
Price said it might be only a matter of time before the military took the lead.
"I think the military could become a progressive force," he said. "It's an evolution that one could imagine."

Of course, there are a ton of ace players and crack teams packed into this fast-moving car of ours. Check it out.
brand ambassadors
We look for people as fun and approachable as our brand to be on the frontlines of Zipcar marketing. At street team events, concerts, farmer's markets and cool happenings of all kinds, they bring car sharing to the people.
Our fast-growing engineering team is what really makes Zipcar go—from our website, to our reservation systems, mobile apps and in-car technology. Pretty cool stuff.
FastFleet uses Zipcar's car-sharing technology and know-how to revolutionize fleet management. We develop smart solutions that create savings and efficiencies for fleets of all sizes.
We handle all those Zipcar doubloons. In addition to managing cash flow and financial reporting, planning, and analysis, we also always end up having to figure out the tip at lunch.
From scouting new vehicle models to ensuring the nametags are on straight (plus everything in between), our Fleet Team keeps Zipcars on the road in tip-top shape.
Human Resources
We take talent seriously at Zipcar. We work hard to hire awesome people, support their career paths and individual growth, and provide plenty of challenges and opportunities along the way.
Does a company that runs on technology have a busy IT department? You could say that. Do we have the coolest IT department on the planet? Not by any official records, but we say yes.
There's no typical day in the Zipcar legal department. Negotiating contracts and making investments one day, filing our proxy statement and dealing with being a public company the next . . . and that's all we're going to say without counsel present.
Local Offices
Each Zipcar market across the globe has a local office, a fleet of cars, and a stellar team of motivated folks who serve our members right in their own backyards.
From Public Relations to Brand Management, Social Media to CRM, Customer Acquisition to an award-winning in-house Creative team, Zipcar Marketing is the art and the science behind the Zipcar brand.

Football helps to heal the scars of war
Young men from four formerly war-torn African countries put years of conflict and hardship behind them last weekend as they played each other in the finals of the Great Lakes Peace Cup.
I did not expect Burundi to win, but they did! And what a beautiful victory it was. The team came from Bubanza, a small town about an hour north of Burundi's capital Bujumbura. The players had journeyed more than 18 hours by bus, including about three hours to cross the border into Uganda.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, July 1, 2013-150 of the nation's leading middle school and high school equestrians competed at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, June 27-29, 2013. The Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) student-riders competed in the Western discipline during the National Reining Horse Association (NRHA) Derby. The NRHA and the National Reining Horse Youth Association (NRHyA) are alliance partners of the IEA and sponsored the event. The finalists represented 33 teams from seven zones throughout the United States. Individuals and teams participated in multiple competitions during the 2012-2013 regular season shows and zone finals to qualify for the IEA National Finals competition.
Riders competed in reining and horsemanship contests. The IEA format requires that riders compete in unfamiliar tack on unfamiliar mounts; therefore, each rider draws a horse the day of competition and enters the show arena with no opportunity to familiarize themselves with their mount.
"We couldn't be more pleased with the success of our second year being part of the NRHA Derby event. Our members, parents and coaches are overwhelmingly pleased with the support of the NRHA management and staff. We are especially grateful to the owners/trainers that supplied the high-quality horses," said Roxane Lawrence, IEA co-founder/executive director.
Beth Himes, NRHA president, stated, "The IEA riders are an impressive group of young people. It's amazing that these 11-19 year olds are so adept at reining. The NRHyA top four youth riders versus the IEA top four youth riders is among the highlights of Derby week. We look forward to many years of association with the IEA."
For the first time at an IEA National Finals, two individuals were awarded the IEA Champion Western Rider. This award goes to the rider who accumulates the most points in the Varsity Open Individual competition. Ryan May, who is a senior on the Ocoee Equestrian Team in Ooltewah, Tennessee and Kelsey Karanges who is a senior on the Oakridge Equestrian Team in Arlington, Texas-both earned the award this year.
In the third annual Interscholastic Reining Championship among the top four youth riders of the IEA and the top four NRHyA riders, the winner was Julia Purus (NRHyA), Purcell, Oklahoma. Benjamin Beckett (IEA), Dublin, Ohio, finished second.
In the IEA upper school team competition, the Dare Equestrian Team-Hilliard, Ohio-earned the Championship title. KM Equestrian Team-Findlay, Ohio-
was the reserve champion team. In the middle school competition, KM Equestrian Team-Findlay, Ohio received the championship title. The Last Lap Ranch Equestrian Team-Maryville, Tennessee-finished as the reserve champion.
The IEA holds the trait of good sportsmanship among riders and coaches to the highest regard. For this reason, two awards are given to recognize rider-members displaying exceptional sportsmanship. In conjunction with the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA), Haley Hogue, of Bentonville, Arkansas,-Ozark Legends Equestrian Team-won the IEA National Sportsmanship Award. Sophia Hendrix of Olean, New York, -TMC Equestrian Team-was awarded the NRHA Sportsmanship Award for displaying exceptional sportsmanship during the 2013 Western National Finals.
The IEA High Point Crossover Rider Award was given to Kiley Stadtmiller from the Alfred University Interscholastic Equestrian Team-Alfred, New York-for being the highest ranking individual to qualify for both the individual Western and Hunt Seat National Finals in 2013. The Team Spirit Award was given to the TMC Equestrian Team-Cuba, New York-for their great attitude and participation throughout the Finals event.
Each year the IEA recognizes an exceptional horse that participates in the Finals competition. This year, the 2013 Outstanding Western Horse Award sponsored by NRHA was presented to Streakin' Catalyst donated by Walters Equestrian Center, Inc., from Bourbon, Indiana.
Founded in 2002, the IEA has more than 8,000 middle and high school student-riders across the United States. The IEA was organized to promote and improve the quality of equestrian competition and instruction available to middle and secondary school students. Its purpose is to set minimum standards for competition, provide information concerning the creation and development of school associated equestrian sport programs, to generally promote the common interests of safe riding instruction and competition and education on matters related to equestrian competition at the middle and secondary school levels. For more information, please view the IEA website at: www.rideiea.org.

The eternal questions, "Was it right to invade Iraq?", "Was it right to bomb the almighty fuck out of all those Arabs?" and "Jesus Christ, is that a brown guy with a backpack? Somebody call the firearms unit!".
It's good to know that in these times of uncertainty there are just wars, causes we can all truly believe in. Ladies and gentlemen, you are invited to tie a yellow ribbon round whatever you think most appropriate, hoist the flag and show your support for the troops bravely fighting in Venezuela's principled and righteous War on Golf.
"The mayor of Venezuela's capital Caracas says he plans to expropriate two exclusive golf courses and use the land for homes for the city's poor.... Mayor Juan Barreto has said playing golf on lavish courses within sight of the city's slums is "shameful"...
... Mr Barreto had ordered the "forced acquisition" of the golf courses, city attorney Juan Manuel Vadell told the Associated Press... The golf courses... are in the city's most affluent suburbs, home to millionaires, foreign diplomats and celebrities, and are seen by some as a haven for the rich... Mr Barreto has said 5,000 people could be housed in the space taken up by a single golf course."
Now, don't get me wrong here - I couldn't give a damn about the suffering poor of Venezuelan slums, but I am deeply enthusiastic about anything that annoys golfers.If, like me, you are rendered apopleptic by the sight of Pringle jumpers, now is our time. If ever a sub-group of society merited dehumanisation, persecution and the deprivation of their assets, it's golfers.
I know whereof I speak - I hail from a part of Scotland where golfers outnumber normal human beings three-to-one, and hundreds of infernal 9 and 18 hole courses blot the landscape.
After all, we invented the accursed sport. A major tournament here is treated like the descent of Zeus and the celestial cohort from Mount Olympus, rather than a verminous infestation of tweedy dorks.
I remember the exact moment I was alerted to the full horror of golf. It was during whichever Ryder Cup it was that the American team decided to show up in full desert camo gear because the USAF had just blasted the fuck out of some tinpot third world country or other, and proceeded to "Hoo-ah!" their way around the course like the short, sharp shower of arseholes they were.
So, hermanos, let us take up arms and declare justified war upon golf and golfers. There is no need for murder, assuming they agree to come quietly.
Victimisation on grounds of religion, ethnicity or wealth is a dreadful crime against humanity.
But I say to you, extremism in pursuit of men who believe that pink jumpers and tartan trousers are acceptable attire is no vice.

For more than 40 years, a studio at the corner of Olive and Alameda avenues in Burbank has been churning out a show that keeps viewers up late. But with NBC's "Tonight Show" poised to migrate back to New York, Southern California is in danger of losing not just jobs but also cultural clout.
News sunk in Thursday that NBC is hatching a plan to replace "Tonight Show" host Jay Leno with Jimmy Fallon next year and move the show back to New York, the city it fled in the early 1970s, not long before New York was mired in a bankruptcy crisis. Reaction has poured in along predictable lines: New Yorkers are gloating, Angelenos despairing. The mayor of Burbank is even organizing an official plea to persuade NBC to keep the show where it is.
Long-time late-night producer Robert Morton, who worked with David Letterman on "Late Night" and "The Late Show," and now lives mainly in Los Angeles, sees the move to New York as a smart one. "As far as I am concerned it's the best place to do late-night TV," he said.

There must be some kind of joke about growing the American workforce and reclaiming jobs that have traditionally been outsourced abroad to accompany the somewhat surprising news that Foxconn Electronics, the controversial Taiwanese manufacturer that creates Apple products and has been at the center of numerous complaints and outrage about the conditions within its Chinese plants – is looking to open factories within the United States. Yes, soul-crushing minimum wage tedium that drives some to riot and others to suicide: It's not just for the rest of the world anymore, apparently.
The news comes via Foxconn chairman Terry Guo, who reportedly announced at a public event that not only was the company planning a training program for US engineers in which they'd be educated in Foxconn processes for manufacturing and design via trips to existing plants in Taiwan and China, but that the company is "already in discussion" with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology over partnering on the program (Guo went on to add that the exchange program will also allow the American engineers "an environment to learn the Chinese language, first-hand experience in the manufacturing process, and a training that can be helpful after they return to the US," according to a report on the DigiTimes website). Reportedly, both Detroit and Los Angeles are being looked at as potential host cities for Foxconn plants in America, with the aim of manufacturing Apple's much-rumored iTV product, making it the first Apple product to be domestically constructed in some time.
Reasoning for the potential move to the US reportedly centers around the rising labor costs in the Asian market, although the move may give some reason for pause to boosters for the American manufacturing, considering the famously low wages and poor working conditions that Foxconn has been strongly criticized for in the past, perhaps most famously in a This American Life episode that was later revealed to be "partially fabricated" (Not entirely fabricated, sadly; the influence of Apple may be improving conditions at the plants, but there are still underage kids working there – Oh, and the boss still likened his workforce to animals, so there's that.)
Foxconn is currently the world's largest maker of components for electronic equipment, with products constructed from its work including not only Apple's iPad, iPhone and iPod, but also Amazon's Kindle family, Sony's PlayStation devices, and Microsoft's Xbox 360. Although most of the complaints about the way the company has treated its factory employees have centered around its thirteen Chinese factories, the company has locations across the world, including the Czech Republic – where it is the second-largest exporter in the country – Brazil, Mexico, Japan and India.
Officially, Foxconn would not comment about whether or not it plans to open any American factories at this time.

One day, gazing up at the 88 overhead light fixtures in the store, D'Jay couldn't help but wonder how efficiently the store's light system operated.
It's the kind of question D'Jay ponders daily as vice president of sales with Lafayette-based light fixture manufacturer Boulderlamp, Inc.
"I shop at Jax all the time, and when I was in there a while back I happened to look at their lighting and asked what they were using," D'Jay said.
As he suspected, Jax inherited the original metal halide fixtures installed when the building first burst onto the Lafayette landscape as an Ace Hardware store in 2004.
It's precisely that metal halide technology that Boulderlamp aims to replace with energy-efficient versions that consume roughly half the electricity while lasting longer and glowing brighter. Boulderlamp's fixtures use ceramic discharge lamps (CDL) manufactured by Phillips. The ceramic element becomes liquified when electricity is applied and puts out what D'Jay describes as a "complete-spectrum, cross-wavelength of light."
"That metal halide technology has been around for a long time," D'Jay said. "(Jax was) using the most efficient lighting at the time the building was built. But the technology has advanced itself so quickly over recent years that now is the time for high energy users in the lighting realm to make the switch."
Jax converted all 88 lighting units in its Highway 287 store late last year and swapped out 49 lighting fixtures in its new South Boulder Road store just before opening in November of last year.
"In our 287 store, we put the same number of fixtures in and we're getting much more light. It was dramatic," Quinlan said. "We're using almost half the energy that we took out, but the light is much better in there now."
Quinlan has yet to run the numbers on energy cost savings for his Lafayette sites, but Jax's Highway 287 store manager Mike Burns said he anticipates the conversion will result in 35 percent total energy savings for his location. D'Jay said the store should start to experience energy payback savings on the project in 1.46 years.
After Boulderlamp's install, the Highway 287 Jax store's estimated annual lighting costs dropped from $28,441 to $13,701.
Quinlan said another perk to going with Boulderlamp is the product is manufactured in Lafayette. Boulderlamp's manufacturing site is located at 10538.5 East Arapahoe Road.
"We try to use local whenever we can, and it doesn't get much more local than Boulderlamp," Quinlan said. "They're right here in Lafayette. And we're going to sell some of their lights in our stores, eventually. They have a reading light that's coming out soon."
Jax's business with Boulderlamp isn't confined to the indoors. Quinlan said Boulderlamp will also handle the parking lot lighting revamp at Jax's South Boulder Road location.
Boulderlamp specializes primarily in highbay lighting for big box sites and warehouses, parking lot lighting and grow lights. Because the lamps Boulderlamps uses in its fixtures aren't temperature dependant, unlike the energy-efficient models often sold for household applications, there is no warm-up time for the lights once hitting the switch.
The local manufacturer's fixtures can be found in the student drop-off/pick-up area in front of Centaurus High School in Lafayette and in the swimming pool area at the Louisville Recreation Center. A demo light is currently inside the Superior Costco location.

Sean Parker and his fiancée Alexandra Lenas have no problem burning cash.
The couple, worth an estimated $2 billion from Parker's time at Facebook, is reportedly living in New York City's Plaza Hotel while their 6-story townhouse in Greenwich Village is being renovated.
They've been living at the Plaza since December, Daily Mail reports. Parker purchased the townhouse in 2011 for $20 million.
Meanwhile, Parker and his fiancée are also throwing a wedding this summer that will cost an estimated $9 million, complete with custom-made costumes for each guest and the building of Hollywood-style backdrops. Although so much about their wedding has been leaked to the press, Daily Mail says the couple is "strongly considering" scrapping their plans and having the multi-day extravaganza in Pebble Beach instead.

Blues to buy back stadium shares
Chelsea have moved a step closer towards building a new stadium after making an offer to buy back the parts of Stamford Bridge sold to supporters in the 1990s.
Chelsea have moved a step closer towards building a new stadium after making an offer to buy back the parts of Stamford Bridge sold to supporters in the 1990s.
Blues chairman Bruce Buck and chief executive Ron Gourlay have said that the club had still to decide whether to move to a new home but insisted they would not be able to do so unless they regained ownership of the pitch and stands at Stamford Bridge.
Buck and Gourlay appealed to the 12,000 CPO shareholders - most of whom are fans - to sell their 15,000 shares to the club for the price they paid for them in return for various incentives at any new stadium. Buck said: "Everyone bought these shares as a way of helping the club and they also bought them as mementoes and souvenirs."
He added: "We haven't considered making them a big offer because we believe that they are fans of Chelsea Football Club and want to do what's best for Chelsea Football Club and we've offered them a couple of things relating to their role as a fan."
The pitch and stands currently belong to a company called Chelsea Pitch Owners, which was formed in 1993 to prevent the stadium falling into the hands of property developers.
The threat of Chelsea being made homeless subsided when Roman Abramovich bought the club but they are now unable to move from Stamford Bridge unless they can profit from the land it sits on.
The incentives for selling up include a guarantee that Chelsea would only relocate within a three-mile radius of Stamford Bridge if the club did decide to move before 2020.
Buck and Gourlay could not make any promises beyond that year because the sites they would currently consider - which are understood to include Earls Court, Battersea Nine Elms and possibly White City - are likely to become unavailable during the next eight years.
Buck insisted the club had explored in great detail the possibility of redeveloping Stamford Bridge but that every idea put forward had proven impractical or too expensive.
He added: "I wouldn't say that we've given up but, after five or six years of looking at it, I would say that we're doubtful that we could do something at a reasonable cost."
