My Blog World Expo New York Hero: Lynette Young @lynetteradio
Lynette Young had a great idea for Blog World Expo New York. She decided to create a Podcasting Pavilion where people could gather to learn from each other. Lynette explains it: The Podcasting Pavilion presented by Social Media Club local chapters hosted at BlogWorld and New Media Expo was created to act as a BoF (Birds of a Feather) discussion and conversation hub for podcasters (and people interested in what podcasting is & it can do).I love this idea. Thanks Lynette for including me in this experiment. Over the course of two to three hours I met a lot of people, talked about video on the web, gave some advice, did some interviews, made some videos, and just had a great time. Thanks Lynette for making it happen.

Gigantic Goldfish Surfaces at Jamaica Pond
While walking Jamaica Pond this morning a huge 'goldfish' surfaced. A darker fish was also swimming along with it. Did someone drop a little goldfish in the pond years ago? QR Code for this post: Update from a reader: I just saw your short video on the goldfish at Jamaica Pond. Just a heads up, it's an albino common carp. Common carp are found in most if not all Boston ponds and rivers, they were introduced from Asia back in the 1800's. Right now they're starting their breeding season so you'll see them in groups along the edges of ponds and rivers. Standard issue common carp is a dark olive color that appears almost black when you see them from above. Every once in a while you will see a large goldfish (that someone released) in Boston waters but their color will look more orange like a carrot and they usually have long flowing fins compared to a carp's compact fins.

[Video] Lady Gaga Thown in a Trashcan, Loves Springsteen's Thunder Road
Just got this from MTV: Lady Gaga Reveals For the First Time Intimate Stories of Her Youth and Path to Stardom in Lady Gaga: Inside The Outside, New Hour-Long Documentary Set to Premiere on MTV Thursday, May 26th at 9pm ET/PT Teaser Trailer to Premiere on MTV on Thursday, May 19th at 10:58pm ET/PT NEW YORK, NY – May 18, 2011 – With her third album, BORN THIS WAY, set to debut on May 23rd, the legend of Lady Gaga to date has been well documented. But who is the girl that became this pop-culture and musical icon, and what legacy does she want to leave? MTV today announced the premiere of an exclusive brand new hour-long interview, Lady Gaga: Inside The Outside, that will compel viewers to look beyond the outlandish outfits, spectacular live performances, and controversy, and instead appreciate the forces, events and influences that shaped Stefani Germanotta’s ascension into one of pop music’s most influential and successful artists of our time – through her own words. The special will debut exclusively on MTV domestically on Thursday, May 26th at 9pm ET/PT, and internationally in mid-June across more than 150 territories (check local listings). The documentary will then be made available in the U.S. for free on-demand streaming on MTV.com. A teaser trailer will premiere exclusively on MTV on Thursday, May 19th at 10:58pm ET/PT, following a new episode of Randy Jackson Presents: America’s Best Dance Crew. Lady Gaga: Inside The Outside features an intimate, stripped-down interview with Lady Gaga, who recounts never-before-heard life experiences that shaped her early years and brought her to where she is today. From the moment she looked in the mirror and decided she was meant to be a star, to the “Thunder Road” challenge she accepted from her father to land her first baby grand piano, Lady Gaga shares an abundance of personal and poignant stories that includes: the inspiration behind her first song, the impact of being bullied at school, her musical and style influences, her relationship with her family, her love of late night bike rides around Brooklyn, and much more. Viewers will also learn how she juggles fame and her career, along with fans and her personal life, and the social causes that drive her. During part of the interview, Gaga recalls being bullied in school and the lasting impact it had on her: “I remember once some of the girls from my class, they were hanging out with some boys that I knew also and the, I went to meet some friends for some pizza that were at the same pizzeria and the boys picked me up and threw me in the trashcan, on the street. On the corner of my block while all the other girls from the school were leaving and could see me in the trash and everybody was laughing and I was even laughing. I always have that nervous… giggle and I just remember like holding back the tears and the lip quivering and don’t let them see you and I remember even one of the girls looking at me like “Are you about to cry? You’re pathetic.” That’s what I, that’s what I felt like, you’re pathetic. “Are you about to cry?” And I just, I remember I didn’t tell anybody, that’s what I remember. I remember I didn’t tell anybody. I remember I didn’t want to tell my parents because it was too embarrassing. And I remember I didn’t want to really bring it up with my girlfriends because even though they were there.” In addition, the classically trained pianist discloses how a deal with her father involving his love of Bruce Springsteen led to getting her first piano: “My dad was really into rock-n-roll. Bruce Springsteen had such an influence on our home. My dad saw me singing along to his records and he would pick me up and throw me around the room and laugh and cry with me while I would sing Pink Floyd and Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel records with him. My father gave me I believe it was for Christmas it was a Bruce Springsteen songbook for the piano and on it was Thunder Road which is my favorite Bruce Springsteen song and my dad said, “If you learn how to play this song we will take out a loan for a grand piano, a baby grand.” I didn’t know the difference. There was the big one and a small one. So I remember it was the hardest thing for me I was playing these huge pieces like 15 pages long and then there was this Beethoven or I mean and then there was this Bruce Springsteen song that was like I opened up the book and there was like cords, guitar cords I was so confused I didn’t understand it so I just started to read it and eventually- eventually I got it down.” Tuesday, May 17, 2011

15 Seconds of BEEPING, and then the Bank of America ATM spits out the receipt. The incessant beeping in the Bank of America Lobby has desensitised us to the beeping sounds as an indicator that an action is needed. The BEEPING is now background noise like the slots machines ina casino. The ATM is a COMPUTER. Make it BEEP when the receopt pops out.

Levolor Accordia Cellular Shades - Installed
Note: The color of the shade is actually SNOW. Doesn't show up in the photo. These are very cool shades. This is a Levolor Accordia Cellular Top Down/Bottom Up shade. So you have total control. The install was easy too, just four screws for the mounting brackets, and the shade popped right in. I got a good deal online at Steve's Blinds and Wallpaper. They had a very straight forward online ordering system that made it easy. There was free shipping, but a manufacturer handling fee of $4.95. Not a big deal. ![]() I'll be talking about this on SteveGarfield.tv on 5/12 at 2:00 PM ET. Tune in.
