Fund-Raising Ideas

Do you have a good for a fund-raiser? The Club of has a fund-raiser each month at a different around town. Establishments that host our events donate a percentage of the days earnings to our club. The Club of then reinvest the funds raised back into such as eradicating polio, helping to dig wells in third countries, and even clothing kids here in .

On Tuesday, March 31, The Club of will host a at ’s in (located at the southwest corner of Lebanon and the North Parkway in the Shops at Starwood). If you go there for lunch or dinner on March 31 please be sure to tell them that you are with The Club of so they will count this toward the amount they donate to the club.

I will keep you posted on future fund-raising events. If you have any ideas for fund-raisers I would love to hear them.

Get the Politics out of Economics

Economics is a science. Why are we in the economic mess we are in? It certainly is not because there is a non-existent precedent to observe and learn from.  In fact, everywhere Socialism is tried it fails, yet we (Americans) like sheep, gravitate toward feel good kool-aide when what we need is some real life robitussin. Talk is cheap. Let’s cut capital gains taxes, lift ridiculous environmental regulations, and encourage freedom, capitalism and entrepreneurship and see what the DOW does in the next few years.  Or we could make the rich worker bees pay for the jealous middle-class/poor bees who feel that life is not fair and watch our economy tank and our freedoms taken away….ok I’m rambling. What do you guys think?

abortion

Perhaps on of the most of our day.  It has lingered in the political releam for decades now.  This is your place to discuss, and rant about the issue.

Title: Lemons into lemonade

 

Picture this: You’re walking past a colleague’s computer when you notice something strange jutting out from the machine.  On closer inspection, you realize that it is part of a finger, inserted into the USB drive and left there.  A script for a bad Halloween ?  Actually, it’s the latest technological breakthrough.

You’ve heard of the “thumb drive,” a memory stick which can be inserted in your computer’s USB to download and swap files.  Now comes the “nail drive,” a 2 GB memory stick which is attached to the nail on your finger.  The only problem is, you have to lose your finger first.  Then you can replace it with this prosthetic device and its attached electronics.

 Today’s BBC News tells us about a Finnish computer programmer who did just that after losing one of his fingers in a motorcycle accident.  The finger is not permanently attached to his hand, so it can be left plugged into a computer when in use.  That’s an image you don’t want to store in your mind.  The man is planning to upgrade his finger to include more storage and wireless .
