From TechCrunch....
About a year ago, I communicated with you about our space and parking challenges, and our ultimate plan to find a facility that could accommodate all of our LA-area team in one location. After an extensive process, I’m thrilled to inform you that we have found the ideal location for Fox Interactive Media’s new headquarters.
The new facility is located in Playa Del Rey (Horizon at Playa Vista http://www.horizonatplayavista.com/) and houses more than 300,000 square feet of commercial space. Playa Del Rey is the first newly-built community in Los Angeles in over 50 years and has become a creative hub for technology companies, including EA, the largest video game company in the world. The site itself should be amazing – including an exclusive gym, internal and external eating facilities, volleyball courts, and lots of green space for outdoor activities. Just beyond the newly-built facility will be a host of restaurants, shopping locations and living options.
FIM has experienced phenomenal success in its three-year history, and we have plans for even greater growth and achievements in the coming fiscal year. Given our tremendous track record, it’s only fitting that we should enter into the single biggest real-estate transaction in Los Angeles in the last 25 years. When we move to our new facility between June of 2009 and January of 2010, not only will we enjoy the distinction of having one of the largest corporate headquarters in the LA area, but we will be housed in a state-of-the-art facility that reflects our corporate identity and culture.
In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be providing you with more information about the site and the surrounding area. We’ll also provide a schedule for the phased move, as soon as those details have been decided.
I have appreciated your patience during the past year, as we’ve shifted groups to new locations to manage our growth and endured numerous space constraints and challenges. Soon, we will have an opportunity to collaborate more effectively, as well as to create a work environment that speaks to the creativity and innovation that has come to be synonymous with Fox Interactive Media.
I hope you are as enthusiastic as I am about this exciting milestone for our company.

Here's the CA DMV FAQ on the new law; don't forget about it; it starts
tomorrow!

One key thing to note (that was of interest to me) is that while using the
speakerphone, and dialing/txt'ing while driving are not *specifcally*
forbidden, they are strongly discouraged, and an officer *can* pull you over
if he thinks you're being unsafe while driving (and probably will as this is
another source of revenue for them), so be aware of that and be careful!

We are back in Astoria, OR to see my Uncle Felix Caballero. He seems to be in pretty good spirits.
Today we visited with my uncle Manolo Garcia and his wife Sheila. As always they are great hosts. We then stopped by the Tillamook cheese factory and had a sample of cheese and an ice cream cone. These are the best ice creams from the dairy direct.

Ralph's grocery stores double coupon policy
Ralph's will stop doubling coupons over 50 cents. In exchange they claim to be lower prices on many more items. There's a new rewards program now too. The old rewards cards work too.
Shoppers plan to boycott Ralph's.
New lower prices every day. Ralph's rewards.
What is Ralph's doing is confusing..... you need to update your cards. You can use both? Rewards and points.

Tmobile customer service continued
So I placed another call to t-mobile today and the rep was very courteous and listened to me and was sympathetic. Obviously the reps who work for t-mobile never have phone problems....
So anyway, still no sign of the @home hotspot router. Pretty amazing considering that this is the second one they are sending out to me.
I called to forward my number to Sprint, because, Sprint actually works in the areas where tmobile does not.
The rep walked me through the steps with the **21*9999999# where 9999999 is the number you want to forward all your calls to.
I forgot to ask about how my phonebook is always syncing with some service someplace and where I could retrieve those names and numbers to make sure I have them in my new Sprint phone.
If enough people start to cancel their t-mobile service maybe t-mobile will start to pay attention???

Architect Looks to Construct First Moving Tower in Dubai
Architect Looks to Construct First Moving Tower in Dubai
Wednesday, June 25, 2008
AP
NEW YORK — Is it real or science fiction?
An Italian architect said he is poised to start construction on a new skyscraper in Dubai that will be "the world's first building in motion," an 80-story tower with revolving floors that give it an ever-shifting shape.
The spinning floors, hung like rings around an immobile cement core, would offer residents a constantly changing view of the Persian Gulf and the city's futuristic skyline.
A few penthouse villas would spin on command using a voice-activated computer. The motion of the rest of the building would be choreographed in patterns that could be altered over time.
Speaking at a news conference in New York on Tuesday, the building's designer, David Fisher, declared that his tower will revolutionize the way skyscrapers are made — a claim that might strike some as excessively bold.
Fisher acknowledges that he is not well known, has never built a skyscraper before and hasn't practiced architecture regularly in decades. But he insisted his lack of experience wouldn't stop him from completing the project, which has attracted top design talent, including Leslie E. Robertson, the structural engineer for the World Trade Center and the Shanghai World Financial Center.
"I did not design skyscrapers, but I feel ready to do so," Fisher said.
Twisting floors are just one of several futuristic features in the building, the first of several Fisher hopes to build with a similar design.
Giant wind turbines installed between every floor, he said, will generate enough electricity to power the entire building, and lifts will allow penthouse residents to park their cars right in their apartments.
A second version of the tower, to be built in Moscow, would have a retractable helicopter pad. Both structures, at over 1,300 feet, would be taller than the Empire State Building.
Even the method of construction would be unorthodox.
Fisher said each floor will be prefabricated in an Italian factory, then shipped to the site to be attached to the core. Assembling a building in this fashion, he said, will require only 80 technicians and take only 20 months, saving tens of millions of dollars, for a total cost of $700 million to build.
On its face, the project seems to pose a number of complicated engineering puzzles.
How would the plumbing hookups work in an apartment that is constantly moving? Fisher said the pipes will connect to the core via attachments similar to the ones used by military aircraft for in-flight refueling.
Wouldn't people get dizzy? No, says Fisher. The rotations will be slow enough that no one will notice.
With so many moving parts, wouldn't the building be a maintenance nightmare? Fisher said the building's modular construction will allow easy access to parts that need to be replaced.
Robertson, who attended Tuesday's news conference, said that the skyscraper might be unusual, but is "absolutely" buildable.
"You can build anything," he said, smiling.
Fisher declined to say exactly where in Dubai the tower will be built or when site work might begin. He insisted, however, that factory production is set to start within weeks and that the tower, which will contain office space, a luxury hotel and apartments, will be complete by 2010.
Sales of individual apartments will begin in September, with asking prices of around $3,000 per square foot. The smallest, at 1,330 square feet, would cost about $4 million and the largest, a 12,900-square-foot villa, $38.7 million.
Skeptics might question Fisher's credentials to pull off the job.
In a biography he had been distributing for months, he said he graduated from the University of Florence in 1976, came to New York in the mid-1980s and later developed hotels and ran a company that specialized in stone and prefabricated construction materials.
The biography also said he received an honorary doctorate from "The Prodeo Institute at Columbia University in New York." No such institution exists, however, and Columbia said it had never awarded Fisher an honorary degree.
Asked to explain the discrepancy, Fisher said, through his New York publicists, that he had been awarded the degree by the Catholic University of Rome during a ceremony in 1994 held at the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, which is near Columbia's campus.
Asked again to clarify the name of the school that conferred the degree, Fisher's publicists said in an e-mail that "Dr. Fisher did receive an honorary doctorate in Economics from Pre Deo University, but it has been removed from his bio because he wants to be entirely accurate and cannot be with this information."

t-mobile service issues continued
Today I had the pleasure of speaking with t-mobile again.
I was once again having trouble with their service. One of the options on voice mail is to dial the party that left you the message, which push 8. So I push 8 and it starts to ring, and the voice mail keeps playing. I tried this twice and it did the same thing.
In the past when I would press 8 it would dial and connect me to the number, either someone would pick up or I would get the other person's voice mail. Well this wasn't the case with t-mobile.
So I called customer service. Today they must have had the new reps on the phones, I asked the rep if they knew how the voice mail system worked. The rep was pretty clueless, so I asked for a supervisor, who after 10 minutes picked up. So now I am on the call for 20+ minutes and pretty aggrevated. The rep then asked me to call from a different phone to troubleshoot the phone. I told them that the problem was most likely with their voice mail service as this had worked in the past when I would try it. Why would there by something with my phone affecting the voice mail, anyway. So I left it at that and hung up.
Asking a mobile customer to call from another phone is pretty inconsiderate. Why now give the customer some thing to try and call back if you still have trouble. I asked the supervisor if they would transfer me and no. They are not allowed to transfer if the customer is calling from their mobile phone. That's just not right.
T-mobile your service is getting worse, your customer service is horrible. I am just going to fwd my phone to Sprint. You guys really need to get your act together. You have lost a customer of 5 years to your inability to fix your network and bring it up to par.
Mobile phone service should be reliable. My cousin who switched to Verizon is very happy and he was with t-mobile. Can't believe he put up with it so long.
t-mobile.... can you year me now?

Autocerm: improve gas and car performance
Q. What is AutoCerm?
A. AutoCerm is a ceramic catalyst that is embedded 2 microns into the sub-surface of the metal of an engine or drive train.
Q. How does AutoCerm work?
A. AutoCerm seals and protects metal for superior lubrication of hot parts. AutoCerm can maintain adhesion to hot metal in excess of 1900º F. Normal oil avoids metal at 275º and will oxidize at 375-425º.
The hard ceramic finish will expand and contract without separating from the metal which ensures protection in both hot and cold conditions.
AutoCerm is extremely strong and can withstand pressures in excess of 350,000 PSI. That is over 20 times the protection of any oil, additive or synthetic oil.
AutoCerm's advanced and entrenched properties provide for enhanced lubrication which allows the engine to run smoothly and cleanly, as well as providing for increased power.
Moreover, the micro-embedded AutoCerm properties can be maintained not only at high temperatures but also exist on the engine parts after the engine stops running.
This effect is in stark contrast to the inadequate filming of motor oil which results in a condition referred to as "dry-start". Because motor oil drains off the engine parts when the engine is not running, an inadequate layer of lubricant causes engine parts considerable wear each time the engine is started.
Q. Will AutoCerm damage my engine?
A. No. AutoCerm is not only safe for your car, it’s good for it. Unlike “oil treatments”, AutoCerm contains no solvents or FTEs. AutoCerm was tested for over 5 years in state and federal-government approved facilities.
Q. Is AutoCerm similar to STP, SLICK 50, or any other oil additive?
A. ABSOLUTELY NOT! AutoCerm is patented new technology that doesn't rely on PTFE's. AutoCerm has never been known to accumulate and cause engine problems. If there is any excess amount of AutoCerm at any given time, it will increase your fuel economy and exit when the oil is changed.
Q. How many treatments do I have to apply?
A. Because AutoCerm works with your engine, not the oil, one treatment is all you’ll need to see lasting improvement in engine efficiency. Small maintenance doses are recommended to reach even better results over time. But they’re not necessary.
Q: Does AutoCerm work with Diesel engines
A.Yes. The dosage required varies depending on the size of your diesel engine. Four cylinder: One (2-oz.) bottle; Six Cylinder - Two Bottles: Eight Cylinder - Three bottles.

PASADENA, CA, USA.—VIASPACE Inc.

Suzuki produces and markets electronics products including notebook computers, portable storage devices, optical disk drives, memory modules, flash-based memory and graphic accelerators. Suzuki is pursuing opportunities to improve and differentiate its products with technology advances.
VIASPACE through DMFCC manufactures disposable fuel cartridges for portable electronics applications, and fuel cell and battery test equipment.

Pictures from Make Music Pasadena 2008.
Held at several locations around Pasadena and featuring 50 performers/bands/musicians, Make Music Pasadena was very successful.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/victorcab/sets/72157605756101740/
Some of the bands I got to see perform and have pictures of include Nortec Collective(on Nacional Records), I got to meet Natalia Linares, Abe and some of the staff. Great team. Later in the day around 6pm Kinky performed for nearly 2 hours in front of thousands of fans. They had the fans going crazy. There was even a makeshift pit on Holly Street! In the blistering heat the music endured as the fans did.

Work the System to get what you want
"Work the System" to get what you want |
|
| "Seizing control: How to work less and make more" |
If you're tired of working long, strenuous hours -- and seeing little on your paycheck to show for it -- here's your chance to seize control and find freedom.
Sam Carpenter, author of the new book, Work the System: The Simple Mechanics of Working Less and Making More, will be presenting on the Free Escape 9 to 5 Teleseminar Series Tuesday, June 24. For small business owners, corporate ladder-climbers, and nine-to-fivers, this will be your boots-on-the-ground blueprint for breaking free and actually getting what you want out of life.
Carpenter is president and CEO of Centratel, the number one telephone answering service in the nation, located in Bend, Ore. He says that by streamlining his business and assuming a new, simple vantage point, he's found the answer to working less and making more. On Tuesday, you'll learn the specifics of how Sam "worked the system" to reduce an 80- to 100-hour workweek to a mere 2 hours -- and the simple, tangible steps necessary to follow in his footsteps.
What: "Seizing control: How to work less and
make more"
When: Tuesday, June 24, 2008
6 p.m. (Pacific), 9 p.m. (Eastern)
Cost: Free
By the way, Sam was recently interviewed on superstation KTLA Morning News in Los Angeles. You can view the entire interview on our homepage: www.workthesystem.com
You will also find a valuable free download on www.workthesystem.com
Here's what some readers are saying about Work the System: The Simple Mechanics of Working Less and Making More:
"The best management book of the year. Follow Sam's path and your business will become orderly, disciplined, repeatable, and profitable."
- Thomas Cox, founder of Cox Business Consulting, Thomasbcox.com
"Just because you're a small business doesn't mean you should think or act small. Sam Carpenter has brought together the practices of the biggest and best companies to help you succeed in your small business."
- Rich Sloan, co-founder of StartupNation.com
Hope you'll join us on Tuesday. Again, go to Escape 9 to 5 to sign up for the call.
