Buehrle and Jackson: free agent pitching prizes?
2011-04-13 02:08:00 Jayson Stark's latest has Mark Buehrle and Edwin Jackson as the potential big fish in a small free agent pitching pool.Stark states that if C.J. Wilson stays in Texas as expected, the next two pitchers at the top of the market would be the pair of White Sox hurlers.Stark, however, says Buehrle is expected to stay with the Sox as well. That is kind of surprising to me.I can see Buehrle finishing his career with the Sox on one hand. He has meant a lot to the organization, being a product of the system, throwing a no-hitter, etc.Buehrle, to every Sox fan's knowledge by now, has spoken on many occasion about how he would like to one day pitch for his...

Tell why you "dumped the pump" and win fabulous prizes
2009-08-18 13:00:00 I gave up my car in May after it was totaled in an accident. I'm fortunate to live less than two blocks from a Red Line station, and I work right near a station downtown. So commuting was always easy, but I've decided to do all my grocery and other shopping via the CTA. It's not quite as convenient certainly. Getting to doctor appointments is little harder, but not impossible. And I'm saving at least $1,000 on insurance, gas and maintenance. I didn't have a car payments.So that's why I "dumped the pump."How about you? The American Public Transportation Association wants to hear why, and if you tell them in a video, you could win a year's worh of public...

better innovation through prizes
2009-04-15 01:07:00 The X-Prize is a truly brilliant idea; establish a challenge and offer a ton of cash for proof of brilliance. Today, they announced together with Wellpoint, that health is the next challenge. "The proposed $10M+ Healthcare X PRIZE is designed to improve health value by more than 50 percent in a community during a three-year trial. A competition around value measures and compares health outcomes against the total cost of care for a community. Health outcomes would be measured by a "community health index," which combines functional health (e.g., reduced sick days, improved ability to climb stairs) and clinical events (e.g., visit to ER, rehospitalization). Total cost would include direct costs incurred across health benefits, payroll (sick and disability pay), coupled with out-of-pocket health care."The X-Prize has established challenges in the fields of energy and transportation, it's just a shame there aren't more organizations like the X-Prize. America is a country of entrepren...

Kavli Prizes Awarded
2008-05-28 17:57:00 The Kavli Prizes were awarded today by the Kavli Foundation, and as promised, here are the winners: The Kavli Prize for Astrophysics was awarded jointly to Maarten Schmidt, of the California Institute of Technology, US, and Donald Lynden-Bell, of Cambridge University, UK, for their work on Quasars. During the 1960s Schmidt analysed the visible light spectra of quasars and used the results to explain just how distant these extraordinarily bright galaxies are, while Lynden-Bell demonstrated how they were powered by the collapse of material into massive black holes. The Kavli Prize for Nanoscience was awarded jointly to Louis E. Brus, of Columbia University, US, and Sumio Iijima, of Meijo University in Japan for their respective discoveries of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals, also known as quantum dots, and carbon nanotubes. Major advances being predicted in fields as diverse as electronics, the environment, energy and biomedicine would not have been possible without Brus and...
Kavli Prizes to Be Awarded Tomorrow
2008-05-27 18:32:00 Fred Kavli hopes to leave behind a legacy that will have a positive impact on humanity for centuries. And he's doing it the same way as Alfred Nobel. No, not by making better explosives (although Kavli did get his start developing technology for the military). Kavli is dedicating his fortune to the advancement of science through the formation of Kavli Institutes for science, and the Kavli Prizes, a set of very focused scientific prizes in the amount of $1 million for advances in astrophysics, nanoscience, and neuroscience. The prizes are awarded by the Kavli Foundation, and the first awardings of these prizes will be announced tomorrow morning in Oslo, Norway. Kavli's goal is to promote scientific research that will benefit mankind not in a few years but in a hundred years. The funds provided by the foundation are for basic research in the three target areas, not for quick results. Check back tomorrow for information about the Kavli Prize winners.
