Can Austin Ignite the Fire of Entrepreneurship?
January 15th, 2010 admin
I recently attended, as part of an overall effort to get out around town more (and away from my desk), Ignite Austin , an event that gives people five minutes and 20 slides to share an idea, and left jazzed about Austin’s future as a place for entrepreneurs. No, it’s not a stellar place to find venture capital , but it’s a great place to start a business. Dell, Whole Foods, National Instruments and even companies like Sweet Leaf Tea were created in Austin, and there’s an ever-increasing amount of resources devoted to making Austin a home for entrepreneurs the way it’s already a home for live music.

Whiz Kids - Scenes Lost in Syndicat...ALL NEW! (NOTE: I Added the uploaded Syndie episode for comparison to My Favorites) As many people know, when older shows go into syndication, various scenes are cut from the original episode to fit the time constraints of added commercial time... For a time in 1986, the CBS techie action adventure series Whiz Kids was seen in syndication on WOR. Many of these syndicated episodes have been uploaded on youtube on Orion1052003's youtube page. Since this series is sadly not likely to garner a DVD Set because of its short run and lack of attention over the years, I compared an uploaded episode to my CBS broadcast and to illustrate this practice, present here 3 extended 'Lost' scenes that were cut from the WOR airings of this episode. Details are also in the clip, but: Lost scene 1 takes place at 3:50 mark of Whiz Kids 16.1, where it is shown how pranksters sealed and siphoned water into the new kid's locker at Canyon High (The uploaded episode picks up where the new kid opens his locker)... Lost scene 2 takes place at the 5:00 mark of Whiz Kids 16.1, which contains an entire Break Dance scene (A picture from this clip is in the end credits) at the end of which, Alice is invited to Ham's house but turns Richie, Jeremy, and Ham down to be with the new kid, to their utter shock (and priceless dumbfounded expressions). After this, the WOR version picks up with the new kid biking home. As a side note, according to the Production Code of this episode, this may have been the last <b>...</b>

Gabrielle was diagnosed with Stage Four Cancer shortly before this video was filmed. Our dear sister fought hard, but she ended her fight January 29, 2010. She was surrounded by family and friends, and her passing was in a very quiet, peaceful room full of love and affection. She was so brave. Please share this video with everyone you know.
