Miles for Melanoma of Delaware’s mission is to provide awareness to prevent and detect melanoma at its earliest stages, to promote research to find causes, better treatment and a cure and to support those impacted by this disease.

Miles for Melanoma of Delaware was prompted by the vision of Michelle Lynn Rigney and Anna Marie Farro.  Michelle and Anna met while going through cancer treatment and decided to make something good of a bad situation.  After reading about the various Melanoma foundations, the two decided that the Melanoma Research Foundation was the best to support for their cause.   Pulling in family, friends, other Melanoma survivors and caregivers, Miles for Melanoma of Delaware was formed.  Sadly, Michelle lost her battle with melanoma on June 17, 2008. During the 2008 and 2009 events, the committee raised more over $110,000 and was able to establish a grant in Michelle’s honour via the donation made to the MRF.  Our efforts continue as we remember Michelle and all others who’ve suffered and lost due to this terrible disease.

House Bill 229

On January 2, 2011 it will be a Delaware State requirement to use a “Hands Free” device for cell phone use while driving a motor vehicle.

Motorist must use a hands-free device to talk while driving and also prohibits text messaging, sending or reading e-mails or browsing websites while the vehicle is in motion.

Delaware is also the 30th state to prohibit texting while driving.

The bill allows a driver to use a headset, speakerphone or other hands-free device to talk on a cell phone while driving. It also permits a driver to punch in a number or activate the hands-free device, but the driver must then put the phone down while talking. Rep. Scott said that the new law takes the phone out of the driver’s hands, eliminating a major distraction.

Just because it’s expensive, doesn’t make it good…….. or worth it.
Recently I was have having a conversation with a friend about a local website that we were looking through.  My friend told me that the owner of this particular business (I won’t mention the name)  just paid a small fortune to have their website refurbished and it was going to be great as soon as it was finished. She said it was going to be high tech and really cool.  I asked when that was going to happen. She said that they hired the company a few months ago so it should be soon.  Here is where I question this mentality.  Not that my friend is not business savvy, but when did expensive and waiting a long time for delivery become the standard for business?  As a business owner, and a client to other businesses, my expectation is that I will get what I pay for, and I will get it in a reasonable amount of time.  It’s like those people in a restaurant that order the most expensive thing on the menu because it has to be good if it costs the most right?  Or the person that drinks Cristal champagne at $300/$400 a bottle because that’s what the Hollywood stars drink.  Personally, I think it tastes like……. well I won’t say it here, but you get the idea.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that we are in the web design business and we have many small family owned businesses as clients.  We don’t charge a fortune even though we could.  We give great service for affordable prices with a fast turn around time so remember, more doesn’t always mean better…………

Steve Jobs has said he has a big announcement at the Apple WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) 2010 is scheduled for June 7-11.

Some have said one of the  announcements could be the introduction of an iPhone for Verizon.

Verizon customers have clearly indicated they won’t leave their network for the iPhone offered at AT&T.  Since Verizon is the largest provider of cellular services, Apple could make gobs of money by offering the iPhone there, too.

“The benefits of selling the iPhone at Verizon so completely outweigh every single hurdle that there is simply no way Apple can continue its AT&T exclusive for much longer.”

Keep your fingers crossed and mark the date June 7th for the announcement.
