African-American Chicago Entrepreneurs inspire potential new business owner
2009-09-20 03:33:00 On Aug. 25, I attended an annual Chicago Women's Entrepreneur networking event, courtesy of Sr. Account Executive Robert F. Wimberly II, and met so many women business owners and aspiring women business owners, including fashion experts, internship recruiters, lawyers, health experts and bank owners. When I was in college, I helped write and edit a business plan for a Chicago music company called MidWest Incorporated, and the more I talked to the owner, Phillip Cavil Sr., the more intrigued I became at owning my own business someday. And my favorite restaurant in all of Chicago is Quench!, owned by Quentin Love. I'm fascinated with those who are brave enough to branch out and start their own company--from hiring employees to...
Jennifer Hudson's baby will inspire better music
2009-08-11 20:02:00 Life changes can spur serious growth. In the case of new mother, Jennifer Hudson, and her soon-to-be-hubby, David Otunga aka PUNK, the family has a new born that should inspire greatness in both of them. Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga Hudson, known from her Academy Award winning performance in Dreamgirls, will find a better ear for better producers, hopefully creating better music. Her voice commands attention and far outsings any song that has been written for her. It may be time for the real producers to step up and give Ms. Hudson some meaningful songs that will withstand time. The former Chicago lawyer, PUNK, has multiple talents as well.

2008-07-21 17:46:00 Who and what we surround ourselves with, have a great deal to do with creating an environment that either champions us to be all we can be, or sabotages us in this effort.Over the years, I have been privileged to know some very inspiring people. They come from diverse backgrounds and wear an invisible ?inspiration cloak? of their own.Inspiring people have the ability to,Do something which capture our mind and stirs our heart.Inspire confidence.Inspire a self-generated force that motivates us to take action.For a long time, I wondered, "Wow, how does he/she manage to do it?"

2008-05-27 22:27:00 Christina Aguilera's second fragrance under arrangements with Procter & Gamble, and her first to be marketed in the United States, will be Inspire, due to launch this September: The new effort is meant to provide "a modern take on the Pop Art era," the influence that Warhol had on the period combined with the image of Tokyo, particularly "the energy and excitement and how the whole city feels and comes alive at night," she said. Christina Aguilera Inspire will be a tuberose-focused white floral; according to a P&G spokesperson, Aguilera "loves tuberose fragrances but they tend to be a bit heavy so we kept working on it to make it more young". Additional notes include mango, citrus, freesia, rose, gardenia, orange blossom, sandalwood and musks. Christina Aguilera Inspire will be available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum and in matching body products. (via wwd)

Lindsay Lohan?s Forgotten Tattoos Inspire Her & She Wants To Make Music Aga
2008-03-08 01:29:00 Whoah, that is not a flattering picture. The whole point of having long hair is to HIDE the face-lift scars. It defeats the purpose if you insist on going out in the wind. Winds-y Lohan is seen here leaving a photo exhibit that she hosted. The starlet selected the pictures for the exhibit, which she says, "represents the mood behind her tattoos." These tattoos, which I had completely forgotten about until now, are "La Bella Vita" written on her back, "breathe" and a star on her wrist. Hmmm, that's not a whole lot to go on, now is it? I have a feeling the exhibit went sort of like this: "These are pictures of things that are DEAD. Now, these are pictures of things that are ALIVE. And here's a picture of a STAR." When she's not playing artist, Lindsay likes to try and make music. She is, once again, tired of rumors starting and is taking her weariness back to the recording studio. This time around, she's citing Kylie Minogue and Rihanna as her heaviest influences fo...

Whale fins inspire more efficient fans.
2008-03-06 16:44:00 Toronto-based WhalePower Corp. is using the fins of humpback whales to help design a better fan (and, hopefully, wind turbine). US scientists discovered some time ago that the little bumps on the Humpback whale's fins result in less drag and better lift when compared to a smooth fin. A fan blade with similar bumps makes the fan quieter, more efficient, and better at pushing down air, according to Envira-North, the company that has licensed the WhalePower design. Fans using WhalePower's design could use 20 percent less energy, and now that fans are incorporating the design, WhalePower will continue to work to apply the idea to wind turbines.
