This is Sammie. He lives with Henry Domke in the middle of the beautiful Prairie Garden Trust. Like our pups, I’m certain Sammie loves the snow. Here he’s surveying his domain from a bluff overlooking Miller’s Creek. Henry’s uncropped photo gives you a much nicer view of the bluff. Don’t miss it.
Ted Leonsis, owner of Washington Capitals (NHL) & Washington Wizards (NBA), at Tuesday’s Business of Sports Symposium:
“…we’re our own media company. I announce things on my blog. I get 40 to 90,000 people coming to my blog, depending on the subject. I have a direct, unfiltered way to reach our audience now, and I think that harnessing that is what you have to do as ownership, because we are media brands. We’re in the subscription business. We call them season-ticket holders. We’re in the sponsorship business. We’re in the same business [as The Post]. When someone goes to find out something about me or a team or a player, and they go to Google and they type that in, I want to learn how to get the highest on the list, and I’ve done that. I don’t want The Washington Post to get the most clicks. I want the most clicks.”
Thanks to my pal Jamie for sharing this amazing 5 min video showing the relationship between health and wealth over the last 200 years. This gives me hope.
Sammy Tucker was executed in Missouri’s gas chamber in 1963. I found this BCI card in the state archives and included it on a website I created some years ago. I posted the image a on Flickr.
I have no way to know if the comments below are legit but then, I have no reason to doubt them.
Missouri Supreme Court Judge Mary Russell received an iPad for Christmas and she stopped by the Coffee Zone on Saturday to get some tips on apps. In this photo Mac God George Kopp is showing her something on his iPhone (that’s my Barb in the middle).
Judge Mary is rightly proud of being the first member of the court to have a iPad and mentioned that one of the attorneys arguing before the court this past week used an iPad for notes. Another first.
I’m telling you, these things are going to be everywhere
