Brain Stimulant: Blue Brain Shows Gamma Oscillations
Anthony’s been busy. 🙂
Check out the mention of Candle Delirium in the New York Time’s article Burn Baby Burn.
Just in time for the holidays, Anthony’s new candle making company, Delirium & Co, has launched their first line. You can check it out over at Candle Delirium.
Congratulations to Anthony!
Wow, I seem to blog about human rights, robots and luxury candles. Who knew?
Just wanted to mention that Anthony’s store, Candle Delirium, got a mention on Extra. Click here for the news.
Looks like the police in St. Paul are illegally arresting journalist.
LA Times Coverage Here
Other than the LA Times article, there is a suprising lack of coverage from the mainstream media. If you would like send letters to CNN and NBC about this, click here.
Hi Folks,
Just wanted to let everyone know that after three and a half years of doing startups, I have returned to Qualcomm. I am working in their middleware services group and managing their web administrators.
It’s an exciting time to be in the wireless space. Apple has demonstrated that the laptop is passé and “important” computer now fits in your pocket.
Qualcomm is involved in almost every aspect of the wireless industry so I think I am in for some fun times. If you want to check out what they are doing, they have some great videos at www.qualcomm.com.

Tim Ferris just had an important post called What Every American Needs to Know and Do about FISA before Tuesday. Please take action now.
I’ve been having lots of fun lately.
I just got back from a 10 day retreat in upstate New York on Sunday June 22.
On the following Friday I was able to get the first day of the Aging Conference at UCLA. Lot’s of interesting progress is being made on that front. For a more detailed report go to the Next Big Future blog.
Tomorrow, I am heading to Madrid for a week.
Life is good!
My friend Brad Feld has a great post on his blog title Holographic Video Conferencing is Here. Read it and watch at least a minute’s worth of the video demonstrating the telepresence system he discusses.
Rocketeers: How a Visionary Band of Business Leaders, Engineers, and Pilots is Boldy Privatizing Space
Michael Belfiore
In the second space age, human spaceflight is no longer the domain of governments. Dream-chasing entrepreneurs and clever engineers are aggressively blazing new trails into the heavens and preparing the world for an era of space tourism, ultra fast point-to-point earth travel and even orbiting hotels. Having gained inside access into the top private space programs, science journalist Michael Belfiore will share his many insights on the history-making flights, the failures and fatalities, as well as the enduring passion and dreams of the real estate tycoons, dot-com billionaires, a video game programmer and other business mavericks for whom the sky is no longer the limit. They are fueling the highest-flying private rockets ever built, testing vertical dragsters, and preparing to launch an inflatable space station with the mock-up already in earth orbit. Can your ticket to ride be that far behind?
