Visions of a Spring Night

My friends and relatives have always told me that I had my head in the stars. Apparently I bypassed having my head in the clouds years ago. I can kind of find some type of peace in this, simple because I love to gaze at the stars on a clear night. Nothing can be more beautiful or romantic than a picnic under the stars with your SO. I may not know all of the names of the constellations, but I don’t need to. I can make the shapes with my mind.

If you like to stargaze as much as I do, you have your chance to do so at the ‘Visions of a Spring Night’ stargazing showcase held at the Memphis Pink Palace Museum running from now until June 19. Contact them for more details.

Google Fiber Coming to Memphis?

Do you know how great it would be to get a faster broadband service in Memphis? That means even faster access to Bailey Creek’s blog and Facebook sites!

Google is planning to build and test a super fast fiber optic network in a few communities around the United States at their own expense. They say it will deliver internet service at one gigabit per second. Since Memphis is suffering through a lack in broadband service, Google setting up shop here would be ideal.

Sure it won’t affect those who don’t have the internet, but for those that do, it’s promising to be revolutionary. The new network would be a hundred times faster than any other network available right now, and it can download HD movies in minutes.

For an avid internet user such as myself, this is almost like getting a enormous birthday present 2 months early! I’m tired of having to wait for things to download or buffer completely before being able to enjoy a video, or wait for more than 10 minutes to submit a form!

The thing is, it’s a big competition between the other cities. The mayor of Topeka, Kansas renamed the city ‘Google’, Kansas, while the mayor of Duluth, Minnesota jumped into Lake Superior. What do you think Mayor Wharton should do??

Seriously, what should be done? Do you have any creative ideas for catching Google’s attention? The mayor’s office suggest submitting short videos on why would Google Fiber be beneficial to Memphis. Anyone else have anything to contribute? Who knows? Your idea may be chosen!

Want to Try a Face-lift Without the Scariness of Surgery? Read On!

Memphis’s Esthetiques Skin Spa is one of only a handful of Tennessee businesses providing O2Intraceuticals skin care treatment, commonly known as a nonsurgical oxygen facelift.

Apparently this treatment gets rave reviews. It takes 45 minutes and infuses the skin with moisture, vitamins and anti-oxidants via cooling oxygen, eliminating lines and wrinkles. Celebrities are swearing by in nowadays.

Depending on each person’s needs, costs range from $60 to $225 per treatment. Despite the economy, people are actively using this treatment. The clinic tells of how they’ve gotten over 100 customers already. That goes to show you that people will do anything to make themselves look and feel younger.

I like the fact that the treatment uses all natural sources. Would I get one? I think I’m a ways off from even wanting one. But what about you? Would you try this new way to have a more “up-lifting” appearance?
