dotgay Seizes the Future of Internet LGBT Domain Names
Rainbow flags. Gay cruises. Logo TV. And now, domain names? If the company dotgay LLC is successful in their bid, they will become the owner of the first Internet domain to provide an online space exclusively for gays that gives back two-thirds of its take to LGBT non-profits. But before they can do so, they must also win the approval of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers -- including the Arab nations, which have just launched a protest against what they view as Western cultural appropriation of the web.
"We realized an incredible opportunity and resource to link and support the global LGBT community would slip through our hands, so we made the investment in .gay, to develop it as a valuable resource verses just a piece of real estate," SPI Marketing/dotgay LLC President and Founder Scott Seitz told EDGE. Although many organizations were approached about the domain name, few saw the potential, and even fewer were able to move quickly to secure domain outside of their mission, or to pony up the $185,000 fee.
Although the Internet has played a central role in the community for many years by providing a space to share information, meet other community members and grow LGBT-owned businesses, creating a gay domain had never been conceived of until recently. This is exactly what dotgay LLC hopes to accomplish.
Seitz, CEO and 90 percent owner of dotgay LLC, is the founder of SPI Marketing, a leading LGBT agency with more than 16 years of service on behalf of corporate and nonprofit clients. While dotgay LLC is in the lead as the only "community" application, there are four other "standard" applications, who hope dotgay LLC does not pass the stringent criteria to win "community" status. They seek to create a namespace purely as a profitable business venture for themselves, with no obligation to the community.
So while SPI Marketing is not the only bidder for .gay, they are the only applicant that has put into writing their commitment to use .gay explicitly for the benefit of the LGBT global community, and to give back to that community. The application has the support of more than 140 LGBT organizations representing over 230,000 businesses and seven million consumers.
"By requiring gay community authentication, enacting policies to protect existing community names and building hubs to grow networking and business, we are creating real value," said Seitz. "Equality for the LGBT community is based on visibility to our governments and businesses. Creating a namespace with our own rules and a safer environment allowing more organizations and individuals to be visible and still safe will make it more likely for inclusion."
Seitz said that because they recognize the increasing importance of Internet governance, dotgay LLC is actively involved globally as voting members of several stakeholder groups participating in governance organizations, and advises community organizations as to their impact.
The company's dedication to providing space for the service and non-profit community, alongside businesses, advertisers, the media and diverse groups of individual users, separates it from its competitor's purely profit-making agenda.
But what really makes dotgay LLC's business model different is that non-profit LGBT organizations will receive 67 percent of profits generated from the sale of all .gay domain names. These funds will be distributed by way of a tax-exempt foundation outside of dotgay LLC, with the help of an independent board of directors comprised of diverse LGBT leaders weighing the worthiness of each cause.
"The gay community has been mostly a self-funded community. We alone reach into our pockets to support our needs, organizations and businesses. Creating a foundation to help support the global community, along with programming to activate networking and growth of our businesses and nonprofits leverages the Internet for the gay community," Seitz told EDGE.
Business Plan Contingent on ICANN Approval
Although creating a clearinghouse for LGBT organizations to have an online presence, and supporting nonprofits through the proceeds sounds like a wonderful idea, it will exist as nothing more unless dotgay LLC can win the approval of ICANN, the small, non-profit corporation that runs the Internet's namespace under contract with the U.S. government. With the recent announcement by Arab nations that they will protest .gay and other applications that they believe represent a negative Western cultural influence, securing ICANN's approval has gotten more difficult.
"ICANN is like the United Nations married the Tokyo Stock Exchange; it's really a new kind of challenge," said Seitz, who acknowledged that receiving a 'Community' designation is a higher bar even than the 'Standard' applicant, because cohesive, community groups interested in operating their own TLD (Top Level Domain) registry must have strong written support from that group.
Why is ICANN's approval so important? Simply put, in order to reach another person on the Internet, a user must type a name or a unique number address into the computer. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers around the entire globe.
More specifically, ICANN is the organization responsible for coordinating the Domain Name System (DNS), Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, generic Top-Level Domain names (gTLDs), and much more. Since .gay is considered a generic TLD name, much like the commonly used .com, it is in high demand. This is because domain names affect how search engines will find a site, as well as how users will remember it.
Therefore, TLDs are seen as financially valuable assets because they are believed to be superior to other domain names with respect to both of these elements. ICANN's recent opening for the acceptance of new bids on TLDs illustrates the point -- it received a whopping 2,000 bids.
"We have surprised ICANN at every turn; dotgay LLC is lobbying supporting countries to assure their votes and have received a great deal of support," said Seitz. "While other countries seek to block us, we still have a strong lead, at least in part because only dotgay LLC is taking proactive visible actions to develop advocacy for the community in advance of the application."
This groundwork is necessary, as those countries that have criminalized being gay, like Arab nations, have already begun to protest the creation of a .gay domain. Their impact on the application will be in the Government Advisory Committee, where 107 countries have a vote on the domains they recommend to ICANN, which makes the final call.
"We are lobbying the GAC members who are pro-gay, or on the fence regarding a vote," said Seitz. "It's based on consensus, so we must be sure that the nations in favor -- those who have gay legislation like marriage equality in place -- stand up and vote yes, rather than not voting and/or leveraging the .gay non-vote for another political favor from Iran."
Although Seitz acknowledges the political quid pro quo behind the votes, he believes that continuing visibility and pressure on them from the International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association and Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerces will make these nations think twice before throwing dotgay LLC under the bus.
There is no guarantee that dotgay LLC will succeed in its bid. Although it was assisted in writing its application by LGBT non-governmental organizations from eight different countries as well as LGBT leaders in commerce and Internet policy, the bid for a new TLD is a multi-year process. And the competition is stiff.
Hopefully, ICANN will appreciate the inclusivity of the business model and the opportunities dotgay LLC would create for the LGBT community. Regardless of the outcome, the LGBT community has found yet another place where it can flourish, create and innovate.
"If we don't have a place at the table, we are on the menu," said Seitz. "We believe dotgay LLC is a bold global step for equality, visibility and economic strength."
To show support for dotgay LLC, "like" them on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/dotgaycom, suggest key word community domains, nominate Advisory Board members, or prepare a letter of endorsement. Learn more about how to get involved at www.dotgay.com.

Every Tuesday, Italian expat Emiko Davies is taking us on a grand tour of Italy, showing us how to make classic, fiercely regional dishes at home.
Today: A zingy way to use up summer's abundant zucchini, direct from Naples.
The Venetians have saor, the Piedmontesi have carpione, the Spanish have escabeche and even the Japanese have nanbanzuke. All of these dishes call for marinating something -- usually something fried -- in vinegar.
This technique adds flavor, particularly when spices, herbs, or garlic are added, but its main purpose is to conserve the dish for longer. In fact, it's always best to eat this at least one day after you prepare it -- the flavors have had time to mingle, then settle and become tastier.
This zesty dish, zucchine alla scapece, is a summertime favorite in Naples. Served cold the day after it's made, it makes a wonderful side dish or antipasto. Atop some crostini or toasted bread, it can be a meal in itself. Don't be shy to make a big batch of it -- conserved in vinegar and kept in the fridge, it does well for about a week.
Traditionally, the zucchini are cut into rounds and dried out in the sun before frying, but patting them with paper towels and leaving them to air dry can do the trick. I also like sprinkling the slices with salt and letting them sit for two hours before rinsing, patting dry, and frying. This way, they absorb less oil during frying, which results in less-soggy zucchini that will better soak up the vinegary marinade.
This is less a strict recipe and more of a technique -- adjust it to your tastes, and keep in mind that it's also delicious with eggplant. Some people prefer to use a mixture of half vinegar, half water; you can even use white wine, boiled to remove the alcohol and then poured, still hot, over the vegetables.
For a mild, nutty garlic flavor, place the garlic cloves in the oil to infuse as it warms up, then remove it before you add the zucchini. Garlic lovers might enjoy simply slicing and placing the raw slices among the zucchini to be marinated. If you're not a fan of garlic, leave it out. The mint, however, is a must. It gives the whole dish, along with the vinegar, a wonderfully refreshing lift.

The first thing Sam Houston wants you to know is that he and his dad, Grizzly Smith, are safe. Forget everything that's happened to them in the last six months -- the watery destruction of their home near New Orleans, the loss of their possessions, and the infection that nearly cost Grizzly his leg.
Hurricane Katrina is just a bad memory. They're safe. And that's the important thing.
"It's been real. And in a way, it's been fun. But it's not been real fun," an upbeat Houston said from his girlfriend's house near Baton Rouge, La. "We're both doing a lot better now. We're just trying to get back on our feet."
Like millions of residents along the Gulf Coast, Houston (Mike Smith), known best for his work in the WWF in the 1980s, and his father, one of wrestling's top stars in the 1960s, saw their lives turned topsy-turvy in a matter of hours last August.
Their apartment near a main highway in Metairie, La., was well west of Katrina when the Category 3 storm made landfall at daybreak Aug. 29. But the flooding associated with subsequent levee breeches in New Orleans dispatched waves of onrushing water that drowned their residence, and tens of thousands of other homes and businesses.
By that time, Houston already had headed to higher ground in northern Louisiana. Initially, Smith, one-half of the famed Kentuckians tag team (with Luke Brown), and a long-time backstage official in several promotions, stayed behind. Houston equipped him with a cell phone, hoping that would enable his dad, 73, to stay in contact during the storm.
But Smith balked at using the new technology, not that it would have done much good - Katrina snuffed out cellular communications in the region for days.
Even worse, the day before Katrina hit, Smith scraped his leg working at his job tending to a cemetery near the French Quarter in New Orleans. Stuck in Katrina's watery aftermath, without access to transportation or electricity, the scrape became infected, and he started to develop a fever.
"He spent four days wallowing around in that nasty water and got a staph infection in his leg," Houston said. "For four days, we didn't hear from dad and they wouldn't let anybody in the city. We were worried sick."
Finally, a female supervisor from the cemetery navigated her way through high waters to New Orleans to check on the condition of crypts that the flood washed up and out of their graves. She dropped by to check on Smith and secured a vehicle for him to drive inland.
Smith made his to way to Tangipahoa Parish, the home of Houston's girlfriend, but didn't remember the directions to her residence, or her name. On his behalf, local police officers drove around asking if anyone knew a man named Grizzly Smith. Houston's girlfriend was outside at the time, collecting ice from a Red Cross station, when she happened upon an officer, and reunited Smith with his son.
"He was sitting in the police station, all disoriented because of the infection and we went up there and got him," Houston said. "After we got him, we drove him down to Texas [to his sister's house] because he didn't want to see a doctor here. That was a 20-hour trip, 10 hours up there and 10 hours back."
"They almost had to take his leg off. That infection took a while to heal," Houston said. A few weeks later, Smith landed back in the hospital to repair a hernia that he suffered trying to lift a heavy object.
When officials re-opened the New Orleans area to residents, Houston and a weary but recovering Smith went back to assess the damage. Water in their apartment had crested chest-high, destroying their furniture and possessions. What little remained apparently was pilfered by looters, Houston said.
"After the storm came through, the maintenance came in and busted everybody's apartments open, and I guess they took what they wanted because we didn't have half the stuff that was supposed to be there," Houston said.
Their vehicles, though, were washed away. Smith had driven his son's SUV to work at the cemetery the day before the storm. He returned home that day in a work truck to help the cemetery supervisor move some items later.
That meant Houston's SUV was parked at the cemetery. Within hours, it was consumed by 15 feet of water. Smith lost his car to the storm, as well.
About a month ago, Houston bought his dad a 1996 Ford Crown Victoria, a big car for a big man. Incredibly, on his way to work at the cemetery, Smith was struck from behind twice by two different vehicles.
"It totaled the Crown Vic out, and now he's in a little, bitty Chevy Malibu, which it looks like it takes a can opener to get him out of," Houston said with a chuckle.
Despite the family's losses, Houston is grateful for what he has. He worked part-time at a construction company, and helped his father at the cemetery, which is operated by the Firemen's Charitable & Benevolent Association on a pretty, historic parcel near Canal Street. It's a 45- to 50-minute drive each way from his girlfriend's house, but Houston said the trip was well worth it one day recently.
"We'd just been cleaning the place up. And there was this woman, and I was walking by, and she was crying. I said, 'Ma'am, what's wrong?' She said, 'Who did this to this grave?'
"I said, 'Well, that's the first grave I cleaned up this morning. I pulled all the weeds and raked it and filled it back up with dirt and everything.' And she said, 'I was out here two weeks ago and the weeds were so high. My daughter's buried there, and today's her birthday.'"
Houston declined her offer of payment and promised he and his father would keep an eye on the plot. Soon thereafter, he was visited by Judge James F. McKay III, head of the association that oversees the Cypress Grove and Greenwood cemeteries. McKay told Houston that the woman had praised that "long-haired guy, that young man."
The grappler responded with a smile, and when McKay asked him why he was smiling, Houston, who passed 40 a couple of years ago, responded: "Just being called 'young!'
"Every day is a new experience for us right now, but at least we've got a place to stay," Houston said. "You've just got to sit back and laugh about things and take it all in stride. As long as you wake up the next morning, it was a good day."

Holmes re-elected as Triathlon Canada President
By Brad Culp on 11/05/10 at 6:18 pm
Stephen Holmes will lead a new Board of Directors who will be counted on to play an integral role in ensuring the success of Canada's triathletes beyond 2012. Holmes was re-elected to a new four-year term as president of Triathlon Canada at the not-for-profit sport organization's recent Annual General Meeting in Edmonton.
Holmes, who took a lead role during his opening term in assembling one of the strongest and most professional Boards in the organization's history that has been focused on good governance, fundraising and developing the sport of triathlon across the country, will now look to expand on the foundation of his work, while leading the Board of Directors until 2013.
"I take a lot of pride in the fact that we have developed a culture of quality with an accountable Board of Directors determined to achieve international high-performance excellence in triathlon, and who also play a leadership role in our sport's communities across the country," said Holmes, who added that recruiting quality-paid professional full-time sport and administrative leaders was a priority during his opening reign between 2005-09. "As a Board, we are going to work together over the next four years to focus on ensuring our athletes have access to the necessary funds and resources needed to win."
Recognizing money is often driven by medals, Holmes and the Board of Directors, who will oversee all areas of the organization, will also be committed to growing the sport across Canada and achieving excellence at the international level on the playing field.
"Our sport has experienced tremendous growth since 2000, but we need to continue developing creative ways to find the next Simon Whitfield," said Holmes, whose full-time career is a Barrister and Solicitor of the law firm Holmes and Company."We need to be efficient with our resources and only send athletes who are competitive to international competitions, so that we can focus our resources and coaching on broadening the talent of our under-23 level athletes. If we achieve our plan, ideally we will see a lot more Simon's on the horizon."
During his opening four-year term, Holmes hired the organization's first executive director at the national office in Toronto, improved budgeting systems, and maintained a financially strong organization. As a result, Triathlon Canada has developed into a professionally-run organization that has increased its funding base through sponsorship.
Holmes and the team at Triathlon Canada were also instrumental in leading the growth of participation levels at the sport by implementing major programs including: a Long Term Athlete Development Model; Canada hosting two World Championship events; improving management services to age group athletes competing at World Championships; inclusion of triathlon at Canada Summer Games in 2009; and ensuring all aspects of the sport are friendly to athletes with a disability.
"We have come a long way in the last four years, but we cannot stop here. We need to continue to build on this success in order to lead our sport to greater achievements in the future," said Holmes. "One of our biggest challenges is going to be raising the financial resources to achieve excellence but I am confident we will achieve our goals with the exceptional people we have in place."
Holmes and his Board of Directors have four core strategies they will focus on over the next quadrennial including: national team program from the grassroots to high-performance sport level; development system at the national training centres, development team and talent identification; coaching programs; and national championships.
A high-performance athlete himself growing up, Holmes competed in a variety of university sports prior to representing Canada on eight age group triathlon and duathlon teams that competed at the World Championships. He has also competed in an Ironman and has completed several marathons around the world.
Holmes joined Triathlon Canada's Board of Directors as vice-president prior to becoming president in 2005. He is an executive of the Pan American Triathlon Congress and a former president of Triathlon British Columbia.
"I truly believe in giving back, and that charity is your rent on earth," said Holmes. "For me, to make an influence on this sport that I love is awesome, and I am going to work very hard with our Board and staff to make a mark, and ensure we achieve excellence."
Holmes will be joined on the Board of Directors from 2009-2013 by:
Stephen Holmes – President
Larry McMahon – Vice-President
Luc Landriault – Treasurer
Lori Ebbesen – Secretary General
Carolyn Murray – Athlete Representative
Sue Ironside – Provincial Governing Body (PGB) Representative
Directors at Large
Meyrick Jones – Chair
Michael Copeland
Mike Ellis – Chair
Regional Directors
Debb Brethauer – Saskatchewan/Manitoba
Dan Gautreau – Atlantic
Geneviève Pellerin – Ontario/Quebec
Bill Hallett – Past-President (non-voting)

One of the most important components of Venus Factor is leptin, which makes the weight loss system even more unique than other fad diets.
Dallas, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/12/2014 -- One of the greatest challenges that many women face is excess weight. There are always new diets and plans coming out promising results. Unfortunately for many women, these plans are often not as effective for women as they are for men. This can lead to frustration and women giving up on a plan that has plateaued. The Venus Factor is different from all of these programs. It is designed specifically for women. It takes into account how the body of a woman functions and addresses how to create the ideal body shape.
The Venus Factor allows women to determine the proper waist and hip measurements for their height. Using height as the place to begin, women are told that 38% of it is the ideal size for their waist. That digit is then multiplied by 142% to determine the goal for their hips. For many women, these numbers may appear too challenging to obtain. However, with the Venus Factor it is entirely possible to reach and maintain these ideal proportions.
Leptin is a hormone found in the bodies of all people. It controls how well people burn fat. Lower levels of this hormone cause storage of body fat. Men tend to respond more readily to this hormone, even though women have more of it. With diet plans, the amount of this critical hormone that determines metabolism drops rapidly for women. This is why women frequently hit a weight loss plateau before men. To make matters even more challenging, the body of a woman stores more fat after having children. Biologically, this is to ensure that they are able to raise the next generation. Because of this, women often have a more difficult time losing weight after childbirth.
The Venus Factor program provides guidelines for eating that works to improve metabolism and provide all of the essential vitamins and minerals needed. Unlike fad diets, it helps to naturally shed the excess fat in the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. The results are permanent if the women continue to follow the guidelines of it.
The other part of the program contains a great series of exercises designed to engage the muscles in these parts of the body. There are both videos and pictures that women can refer to in order to be certain they are doing them correctly. Though a challenge, these exercises only require three work outs per week to be effective.
The Venus Factor has been used by a diverse group of women successfully. Any woman who is basically healthy can implement the food and exercise program and find success. It does not matter how much a woman weighs or how active she is at the beginning. It is not a restrictive plan and can be used to lose unwanted pounds and shape the body. Women that have used the program are very pleased with how great they look and feel by utilizing the tools provided in it.
About http://www.venusfactor.com
The Venus Factor Package is in the form of an eBook designed to fully explain the weight loss program for women. Nonetheless, the Venus Factor does not resemble any other dieting plan or quick weight loss program. This program ensures that the buyers will learn the different nutritional strategies that women should be aware of in order to lose weight in just 12 weeks. Buyers will learn another important point mentioned in the Venus Factor that there exist certain food sources standing against the process of losing weight, which includes processed food, soy based product and many more. These products do not assist in the formation of leptin and should better be avoided.

Weekday Raglan: Choosing a Size
The gauge for the sweater is listed at 6 sts/inch (page 93 of The Knitter's Handy Book of Top-Down Sweaters). I like the density of my swatch and wouldn't want to change to larger needles (and a looser fabric) to match that in the pattern. Instead, I want to see if I can follow the instructions for a larger size and end up with the size I want.
I'd like a bust circumference of 40", which means I need 40" x 6.75 sts/in = 270 stitches just below the armhole. The total number of body stitches are given on page 96, at the end of the heading "Divide for Body and Sleeves. The largest size has 276 stitches, which would translate to a bust circumference of 40.9" at my gauge. The second-to-largest size has 252 stitches, which would translate to a bust circumference of 37.3". Neither of these is exactly what I want, but the largest size is closest.
I've decided to follow the instructions for the largest size for all stitch counts, but because I'd rather err on the smaller size, I think I'll omit the last raglan increase so that I'll end up with 268 stitches for the body. That will give a bust circumference of 39.7".
I'll count rows rather than simply measure vertical distances to make sure that the lengths will reflect the after-hanging row gauge.
It's time to cast on!

Thank you for sharing the process of how you handled the swatch and determined which size to knit. I haven't got a lot of experience with silk blends and am currently working on a sweater with Malabrigo silky merino (50% silk and 50% wool). Someone else on ravelry said her sweater stretched a lot with this blend. Now I know what to do in the future!

Studio On Fire
Today I would like to introduce to you a very special book. This is a compilation of work by Ben Levitz's Design Studio (and Letterpress Service) Studio On Fire. The book of the same name was published by Gestalten and shows Studio on Fire's many small and large art works. This book is a true source of inspiration and does not cease to amaze how rich in detail work is becoming thanks to traditional printing techniques. For anybody who wants to take a look behind the scenes of Studio On Fire, watch the video below:
Video by gestalten tv.
Gestalten Verlag: Studio On Fire is at the forefront of the current letterpress movement—the rediscovery of old printing machines and techniques by young designers. The phenomenal detail and haptic sensuousness of their work have made this Minnesota-based company a seminal reference for how to effectively blend current and classical graphic design styles with production methods.

STAFFORD, TX -- It's no secret the debate swirling about an assault weapons ban is turning into a business boom for gun dealers. The same is true for the sale of machine guns and military-style weapons. They're huge and powerful and they can be bought legally in Houston.
"If you can buy a handgun, you can buy a machine gun," said Cris Parsons, general manager of Houston Armory.
The small gun store in Stafford, Texas is packed full of machine guns, short-barrel rifles, even 50-caliber weapons. Customers are paying big bucks for it all.
"The guy spending $800 at Academy is not the guy who comes in here," said Parsons. "The average gun in my shop runs $3,000 and up."
Parsons has plenty of weapons that cost much more.
"It's not the need for the gun, it's the desire for the gun," said Parsons. "People want things that other people don't have and can't have. The exclusivity behind NFA weapons are what drives people."
NFA is the National Firearms Act.
It's the federal rule that makes buying these kinds of weapons legal. For every sale, there is loads of detailed paperwork, federal background checks and a $200 tax that goes to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Then, there's a six- to eight-month waiting period to take the weapon home. The ATF also tracks nearly every move the weapon makes from there.

Here's what having a tattoo of his wife wearing nothing but a Mark Sanchez jersey says about Rex Ryan:
1. He loves his wife.
2. He doesn't take himself too seriously.
3. He's comfortable in his own skin (it's on his bicep! right out there for everyone to see!)
These are all good things.
People are going to make a lot of jokes, but at the end of the day, this tattoo represents a lot of what makes Ryan such a compelling guy.

Biden, Sen. Ted Cruz Speak in South Carolina Amid 2016 Buzz
(COLUMBIA, S.C.) -- South Carolina got a taste of two very different political acts Friday night.
On one side was Vice President Joe Biden, a 35-year veteran of the Senate who showered praise on his old congressional colleagues and drew on his standard stump speech from the 2012 campaign, talking about Democrats' commitment to the middle class and declaring that Republicans are "down on America."
"One of the things that bothers me most about the new Republican party is how down on America they are, how down on our prospects they are, how they talk about how we're getting clobbered, how they talk about things that have no relationship to reality, all in the name of making sure that the very few at the top do very well," Biden said at the South Carolina Democratic Party's annual Jefferson Jackson Dinner Friday night.
On the other side, two miles down the road, was Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a rising star in the Republican Party, less than six months into his first term as a senator. Cruz wooed the South Carolina Republicans with his talk of repealing President Obama's healthcare plan and protecting constitutional rights.
"We should be defending the fourth and fifth amendments against an administration that recognizes no limits on its powers," Cruz said at the South Carolina GOP's Silver Elephant Dinner as he went through each of the constitutional rights he believes the Obama administration is threatening.
Biden and Cruz each traveled to South Carolina, known as the "First in the South" primary state, to honor leaders in their respective parties, but the visits fueled speculation about each man's intentions for the presidential election three years from now.
The vice president acknowledged that his trip to South Carolina would create a buzz about 2016 but insisted he solely came to celebrate Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., who was being honored at the evening's fundraiser.
"I love coming down here to South Carolina…As soon as I show up in South Carolina, the Washington press corps comes out saying, 'Is Biden getting ready?'" he said, before adding that he came at the request of Clyburn. "I've got to make clear — I would go anywhere Jim asked me to go."
As they opined before their party faithful Friday evening, both politicians were very cognizant of the other's presence in South Carolina. Biden referenced the Silver Elephant Dinner occurring down the road multiple times in his speech but refrained from mentioning the Texas senator by name, instead jokingly saying "I don't want to make any news tonight."
But Cruz was a bit more direct in his acknowledgement of Biden, who he challenged to a debate over the Second Amendment at the National Rifle Association in Houston, Texas earlier on Friday.
"So Vice President Joe Biden's in town," Cruz said to laughs. "You know the great thing is you don't even need a punch line? You just say that and people laugh."
Cruz admitted Republicans are "demoralized" by the results of the 2012 election but predicted the political fortunes of the GOP will change in 2014.
"Things can change quickly," he said. "I am convinced with your help we're going to take back the U.S. Senate in 2014.
Asked if Cruz is a viable presidential candidate, former Sen. Jim DeMint, head of the Heritage Foundation, who was being honored at Friday night's event, told reporters that voters are clamoring for a leader like Cruz but said Friday's speech wasn't a signal of a presidential run.
"Give the guy a break, he's just coming to speak for us here," DeMint told reporters. "Everybody comes to South Carolina you say they're running for president. I can assure you he's thinking about Senate business and that's about it right now."
"He's one of the strongest Republicans in the country now. I've been in 25 cities in the past few months, all I have to do is mention Ted Cruz's name and people stand up and cheer," DeMint said. "They're hungry for someone who's not afraid and willing to stand up, who's trying to change the status quo."
While he didn't directly express a desire to run in 2016, Cruz did link himself to the early primary state by pointing out the connection between Texas and South Carolina dating back to the Alamo, similar to a story Texas Gov. Rick Perry often referenced while in South Carolina during his presidential bid last year.
"Texas and South Carolina have a long long connection, a connection that goes back centuries…There were two native South Carolinians – William Barret Travis and James Bonham in the Alamo," Cruz said. "That's the tradition, that's the history of South Carolina and Texas, and it's a tremendous thing. So thank you for the support South Carolina has given then and now as we fight side by side for freedom."

Gaige2000 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 176 diseños de 36 diseñadores freelance.
We are a B2C company - our clients are the world's top minds, start-ups, entrepreneurs, angel investors, advisors and venture capital funds. Our design needs to feel contemporary and innovative to those clients.
We are out to attract the world's best talent. The identity needs to express the fact that this company is the a trusted leader, a safe place for advice, a cocoon of sorts;
The logo should suggest the company's colors. And on this we are openminded.
The logo should communicate (all or at least part of) these core aspects of the business
We offer a place for the best and most innovative minds to get to work and have fun doing it. We don't meet at bars or Starbucks, but an actual office with Whiteboards, and collaborators,
- Creating networks
- Getting "Sound" Advice
- A VERY COMFORTABLE place
Recent Business School Grads, Entrepreneurs, Inventors, Investors, The City Kid, The Trust Fund baby, the recently retired "still want my hand on the pulse" kind of guy. The Advisor, The Project Manager, the Popular guy in town that has all the connections.
The logo should work in color, B&W, and also could be animated (but only if you have a great idea - don't feel obligated)
Some logos we like include:

The logo will need to work on a website, on a business card, on a powerpoint deck, on letterhead, and it should lend itself to fitting on an iPhone app icon.
We expect that the winner of the logo contest will likely go on to help us design new business cards and also help us give our website a refresh at the least.
We will need further help designing letterhead, a powerpoint template and a few other items as well.

Carlton Bailey is 5-12 through three games this spring (photo Harvard Athletic Communications).
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – The Harvard baseball team built a 3-0 lead midway through the second inning, but No. 19 Virginia stormed back for 11 runs, including seven in the fifth to knock off the Crimson, 11-5, Saturday afternoon. Freshman DJ Link had a three-hit day, while juniors Carlton Bailey and sophomore Brandon Kregel added two hits.
Sophomore Matt Timoney (0-1) took the loss in relief for Harvard (1-2) and Whit Mayberry (3-0) earned the win to keep Virginia (12-0) undefeated.
The Cavaliers opened the game for Harvard with shaky defensive play in the first inning. Bailey led off with a single, before an error and a walk loaded the bases with one out. The Cavaliers blunders continued with a wild pitch, to move each runner up 90 feet and score the first unearned run, and a throwing error on the shortstop to plate another Harvard run.
The Crimson were limited to the two runs in the first, but tacked on another in the second. Senior co-captain Robert Wineski, yesterday's extra-inning hero, walked to start the frame and junior Jeff Hajdin moved him over with a sac bunt. Bailey then came to the plate and singled to center to send Wineski home and give the Crimson a 3-0 advantage.
Virginia answered in the bottom half of the second with a three-run homer down the right field line from lefty Mike Papi. The shot tied the score until the fifth inning, when Link drove in Kregel, who had doubled, to make it 4-3.
That advantage was short lived, as the Cavaliers sent 10 players to the plate and put up seven runs in the bottom of the fifth. Virginia totaled four extra-base hits in the inning, three doubles and a Joe McCarthy homer, to take a commanding lead.
Another Virginia run in the seventh inning padded the Cavaliers lead and Harvard failed to muster a comeback of its own. The Crimson added its last run in the eighth inning because of a Link single, followed by a ground out, balk and wild pitch.
Harvard plays Bucknell tomorrow at 11 a.m. in a rematch of the Crimson's season-opener. The Bison surrendered a two-out, two-strike RBI single to Wineski in the bottom of the 10th inning on Friday to give Bill Decker, The Joseph J. O'Donnell '67 Head Coach for Harvard Baseball, his first win at the helm of the Crimson.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Ugly, sloppy or abbreviated, the Cleveland Indians will take wins any way they can get them right now.
This is no time to be picky. This is playoff time.
Zach McAllister lasted five innings and the Indians got two unearned gift runs from Houston in a 2-1, rain-shortened victory over the Astros on Friday night and moved into one of the two AL wild-card spots.
BOX SCORE: Indians 2, Astros 1 (6½)
STANDINGS: Tight six-team AL wild-card race
The game was delayed for 1 hour, 9 minutes before the umpires decided to call it after 6½ innings. Shortly after Cleveland's win, Texas lost to Kansas City, allowing the Indians to jump the Rangers in the wild-card standings. It's the first time the Indians have been atop the ever-changing board since Aug. 4.
"For us to be able to get this win, regardless of how we got it, it's all about the W's at this point," first baseman Nick Swisher said. "And if we keep winning, the season keeps going, and hopefully everyone here in Cleveland gets real happy."
The Indians, who entered the night trailing both Tampa Bay and Texas by one-half game for a wild-card spot, scored an unearned run in the second and fourth innings off Brett Oberholtzer (4-4).
WILD-CARD RACE: Royals top Rangers with bases-loaded walk
A-ROD: Passes legend Lou Gehrig for most career grand slams
McAllister (9-9) allowed just one run and got a key double play in the fifth as well as a diving catch by center fielder Michael Bourn in the first inning, a defensive gem that set the tone.
Cleveland also got two innings of hitless relief from Marc Rzepczynski and Bryan Shaw, who struck out three of four batters he faced for his first save.
Brandon Laird homered for the inept Astros, who committed three errors, lost their seventh straight and fell to 51-103 — four losses shy of matching the club record set last season.
"Errors are a part of the game," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "We all know that, but at the same time you expect those plays to be made in a major league baseball game."
The win improved Cleveland's record to 48-18 against teams currently below .500 — the majors' best mark — and perhaps the biggest reason the Indians have a chance to make the playoffs for the first time since 2007.
With a very favorable schedule ahead, the Indians were hoping to capitalize on a four-game series against baseball's worst team to stay in the wild-card fray. They needed 11 innings on Thursday to finally beat Houston 2-1, and then got a major assist from the awful Astros — and Mother Nature — to win again.
As they waited out the delay, Indians fans kept tabs on the Tampa Bay-Baltimore and Texas-Kansas City games on Progressive Field's giant scoreboard. It was a similar scene in Cleveland's clubhouse as players stayed tuned to the action elsewhere.
"There's 18 TVs in here, there's games all over the place," Swisher said. "There's games you might not even want to be watching that are on. Right now, it's watch time. We've got ourselves in a great spot and just to be able to be here, a complete turnaround from last year, it's exciting. It's nice. It feels like people are jumping on board right now and it's the perfect time to do it."
McAllister worked in and out of trouble in the fifth, when his slim lead seemed about to vanish.
The Astros loaded the bases on a single, walk and single, but the right-hander got leadoff hitter Jonathan Villar to bounce into a 4-6-3 double play to preserve Cleveland's 2-1 lead.
McAllister threw four straight balls to Jose Altuve to start the sixth and was immediately lifted by Indians manager Terry Francona, who wasn't going to wait for the situation to worsen and went to his bullpen. Rzepczynski came on and got two outs — one when catcher Carlos Santana threw out Altuve trying to steal — before Shaw struck out Chris Carter.
With the heavy rain approaching, and the weather forecast looking bleak, the Indians took a 2-1 lead in the fourth thanks to two errors by the Astros on one play.
Ryan Raburn hit a one-out single and Asdrubal Cabrera walked. Michael Brantley then hit a grounder to first baseman Carter, who tried to get a forceout at second but threw wildly into left field, allowing Raburn to score. Both runners advanced when a throw to the plate by left fielder Marc Krauss hit a sliding Raburn in the shoulder and the ball skipped to the backstop, a sequence more suited to a Little League field than a major league ballpark.
McAllister got two quick outs in the second before Laird's fourth homer gave the Astros a 1-0 lead.
NOTES: The Indians are 14 games over .500 for the first time since May 24, 2011. ... Indians RHP Justin Masterson (oblique) threw a 33-pitch bullpen session, and it's possible the All-Star could pitch if the Indians make the postseason. Masterson, who has been out since Sept. 2, will be re-evaluated Saturday and could throw a simulated game as soon as Monday. ... The Indians have spread around the walk-off wealth. They have had 10 wins in their final at-bat with nine different players getting the game-winning hit. Jason Kipnis is the only player with two walk-off hits. ... Aviles snapped an 0-for-23 slid with a double in the sixth.

We also need a starburst for 'free teeth whitening'
These are some of the websites that we have done in the past (see http://www.jstevensdds.com & http://www.irmocosmeticdentist.com as a reference)
we don't want the header to take up too much space but it must have his 'usp' which is "Combining the Art & Science of Dentistry" with their address and phone number, pass that do what you want.
Must have "new patient special offer" button or 'request a consultation' button. Doesn't matter where this is placed, usually keep it to the top of the website, and easily viewableYou can use any of the images attached below.

This beautiful, sleek diamond pave bracelet with black spinel is the epitome of exquisite elegance.
Featuring three wonderful, genuine, champagne diamond beads. 'Pave' settings consist of lots of small stones, in this case diamonds, set closely together in metal. The jeweller pierces the metal with many holes in a honeycomb pattern, and after hand setting the stones into the holes, the jeweller then uses little beads of the metal around each stone to secure them in place. The end result is a gorgeous jewellery piece that appears to be paved with glittering gemstones.
The main diamond pave bead is 8mm, and the diamonds have been set into sterling silver. This focal bead is framed by two smaller, 5mm, diamond beads, all of which are nestled on a beaded strand of beautiful, sparkling, black spinel stones.
Finished with a sterling silver extender chain so you can wear this bracelet between 6.5 and 8 inches. A single, raw white diamond hangs from the chain, giving an extra special detail and a lovely finishing touch.
The overall effect is exquisite, tasteful, stylish and elegant.
This black diamond bracelet would make the most beautiful and thoughtful gift for a loved one. The diamond is said to represent commitment, fidelity and trust, and to bring love and clarity into all partnerships and bonding relationships. Diamonds represent love, faithfulness, purity and innocence, making this beautiful bracelet the perfect token of your love!
PLEASE NOTE - The chain and clasp are made with STERLING SILVER that has not been oxidised - ie it is NOT black, it is the usual silver colour. Thank you.
This is the LAST ONE available.
