kind of support networks as men do and many Department of Veterans Affairs health centers lack specialists in
the physical and mental health needs of women.
"Women veterans deserve equal respect, consideration
and care as the men who served," says DAV's deputy national legislative director Joy J. Ilem, a
veteran herself. "Yet the support systems
are ill-equipped to meet the unique needs
of the brave women who have defended
our country."
Consider the case of Crystal Dunkin, a
munitions specialist in the United States
Air Force. She oversaw the entire process
of building and disassembling bombs,
making sure nobody made a deadly mistake. "It was explosives and it was the real
deal," she recalls.
She was good at her military job but
struggled when she left the Air Force and
transitioned back into civilian life. "I didn't
know a thing about being a civilian. It was
really hard for me to find and keep jobs."
She battled depression and alcoholism
and became homeless.
Then there's Alexis Courneen, who
served aboard a Coast Guard cutter. She
was struck by a several-ton buoy that was
being lifted by a crane onto the ship,
crushing the nerves in her right arm, fracturing her hip and slamming her head
against the deck. She struggled with persistent eye problems, ringing in her ears, migraines, and trouble with balance. For two years, her doctors could not diagnose her
condition correctly; one doctor even suggested that hormonal changes caused her symptoms.
The DAV report is clear: Too many women, like
Dunkin and Courneen, face a long road to a productive
civilian life. Fortunately, both women made it. Dunkin
is working in a program that helps veterans and
Courneen, diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury and
matched with a service dog, is happily married and
raising two children.
Hundreds of thousands of servicewomen will return
home in the next five years. It's both the nation's duty and
to the advantage of all Americans to make sure they have
access to the care and support they need to make the journey home as smooth as possible.

have recently come up
with a list of the twenty-five most important people in baseball history. Ive decided to compile
my own list but in the interest of space, Im limiting myself to the top six.
The exercise is purely subjective, strongly influenced by
ones view of baseball history. Most of the lists are
heavily weighted in
favor of star players
based on their accomplishments on
the field. My primary consideration
is an individuals lasting impact on the game, whether they
played the sport or not; hence,
the absence of such greats as Ty
Cobb, Ted Williams, and Hank
Aaron. There are no guidelines
and no analytical formulas to
rely on, just opinions. Here are
my selections, in no particular
order.
BABE RUTH. There is no
way to overstate Ruths importance to baseball.
When the Red Sox sold him to the Yankees in
1919, the year of the infamous Black Sox scandal, the game was sorely in need of a savior and
fortunately, Ruth obliged. He was bigger than
life in the largest media market in the world. His
exploits on and off the diamond are legendary
and its no exaggeration to say he remains baseballs biggest star.
BRANCH RICKEY. Rickey is best known
for signing Jackie Robinson in 1945, a
move that effectively integrated
baseball. But Rickeys lasting
impact on the game is greater
than Robinson. His legacy includes the creation of baseballs first farm system, an
emphasis on scouting and
player development and
spurring MLB expansion in
1959 by working to create the Continental League.
JACKIE ROBINSON. Robinson
carried out Rickeys vision and paved
the way for the hundreds of other
Negro Leagues players that followed.
KENNESAW MOUNTAIN LANDIS. After the Black Sox scandal, Landis was given unlimited authority as
the first commissioner in baseball history. He immediately banned eight
White Sox players for life and virtually eliminated gambling
from the sport. That move may

eCandescent - HB Style!
22
he invention of the incandescent light bulb more than 150 years ago has shaped how
we live today, but with very little in the way of technological advancements, until
now. One company hoping to change how the world views the incandescent is Intelligent Lighting Corp, which announced today the launch of the eCandescent, the
world's first energy-efficient, fully dimmable and toxic-free incandescent bulb that can last
more than 100 years. The eCandescent is now available for pre-order through Kickstarter:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/611933709/532506860?token=9bf75da3
What makes the eCandescent unlike anything else in the marketplace is its "secret sauce"
a combination of an advanced filament technology, and its patented PowerDisc technology, together, which reduces the total energy consumption of the bulb up to 72 percent.
The PowerDisc, which easily adheres to the base of the bulb before it is inserted into the
socket, is a high-tech, solid-state rectifier that converts to 120 volts of alternating current
(AC) to approximately 85 volts of direct current (DC).
"Consumers have a lot of lighting options, but all are misleading, from containing toxic
chemicals to skewed lifespans," said Lisa Landau, CEO of Intelligent Lighting Corp. "The
eCandescent is literally 'transparent,' taking the household 'Edison' and modernizing it to
today's standards safe, chemical-free, energy-efficient, luminous, cost-effective, and extremely long lasting."
eCandescent bulbs are now available for pre-order through Kickstarter, and include the
following key features:
Combining the Best of Old and New Technologies The eCandescent is the reinvention of the "Edison" incandescent, offering the same warm glow, with
advanced technology, reducing energy
consumption up to 72 percent.
Toxic-Free Unlike CFLs (compact
fluorescent lights), the eCandescent does
not contain mercury, phosphor, harmful
levels of EMFs, or ultraviolet radiation.
Long-Lasting Using the standard
three-hour benchmark as used by CFLs
and LEDs, while they claim between 3-5
(CFL) and 10-20 (LED) years of life, the
eCandescent can last more than 100 years.
Long-Lasting The marketing tactics
of CFL and LED manufacturers claim between 3-5 (CFL) and 10-20 (LED) years of
life IF those bulbs are ONLY used three hours per day. Using that same three-hour guideline, the eCandescent can last more than 100 years.
Highest Quality Light Available With a CRI of 100, the eCandescent reveals true
colors faithfully when compared to a natural light source.
Reduced Heat Output Unlike CFLs and LEDs, which produce excessive heat, the
eCandescent can be used in all recessed, canned lighting and enclosed fixtures.
The eCandescent light bulb system is currently available for pre-order through Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/611933709/532506860?token=9bf75da3.

sustainable lifestyles.
Yet another nonprofit vehicle that helps kids get active
is SustainUS, which focuses on sustainable development.
Its Agents of Change program sends youth delegations to
United Nations conferences on climate change, sustainable
development, womens issues and biological diversity
and its Lead Now Fellowship trains and supports young
people in becoming leaders in advancing sustainable development.
Last but not least, TakingItGlobal is an international network of young people working to tackle global environmental challenges. Its Digital Youth Engagement, Global
Education and Social Innovation programs focus on creating the next generation of environmental leaders around
the world.
Young people can also get involved in environmental
protection efforts right in their own backyards even without
the support of a non-profit. Examples include organizing a
local e-waste recycling drive, asking schools and businesses in the area to refrain from using noxious chemicals
for landscaping, and coordinating carpools to reduce traffic-related greenhouse gas emissions. Likewise, kids can
learn a lot by finding a local green group and volunteering
to help canvass for funds, clean-up a beach or waterway,
or lobby local officials to take sustainability into account.
Indeed, our common future may well depend on it.
Delectable:
A Wine App That
Could Revolutionize
Drinking
"The app has taught me about new producers, new regions, and even new varieties," he explained. "I actually
just learned about orange wine -- and tried my first one - thanks to it."
An orange wine is made by treating white wine grapes
as if they're red -- in other words, soaking the skins and
seeds alongside the juice during fermentation. Orange
wines have become quite popular among some of the nation's hippest sommeliers, and thanks to Delectable,
Niehenke can see what those sommeliers are opening
each night.
Delectable traces its roots to 2011, when Alex
Fishman was working in Dubai for Palantir, the data
analytics firm best known for its work with the U.S.
intelligence community. Shortly before returning
home, Fishman and his girlfriend came upon a wine
they'd enjoyed on many occasions. Wanting to remember the bottle so they could purchase it in the
United States, they looked to the label for information -- but were overwhelmed.
Fishman recalled this experience a few months
later over breakfast with in New York with Aaron
Vanderbeek, a video-game designer. The two were
old friends, and Fishman was detailing his desire to
launch a mission-focused company -- ideally, one
that would "make the world a more delicious place."
In short order, they realized that there weren't any
good mobile apps for wine enthusiasts. So Fishman
and Vanderbeek began building Delectable. Today,
the app identifies all a wine's details from a photo
and allows users to review and purchase wines. It
also helps users discover industry professionals -- winemakers, sommeliers, and critics -- and see what they're
drinking.
It's no wonder why Delectable has been described as "the Instagram
of wine." Thanks in large
part to this feature, Delectable could revolutionize
As FishDavid White consumption.
man told me, "the wine
market is broken because
of a lack of information. That's why consumers buy
points. But the point system is flawed because people
have radically different tastes."
As consumers discover other enthusiasts on Delectable
with similar tastes, they'll discover new wines worth
drinking. After all, it doesn't make any sense to take the
advice of a critic who has slapped "98 points!" on a bottle
unless one shares that critic's preferences. Delectable
solves what Fishman calls "the matching problem" consumers face with wine critics.
Niehenke is certainly drinking better thanks to the app.
"When looking for new wines, I used to call my
knowledgeable friends. Now, I can just open up Delectable to see what they're drinking," he explained. "When
I realized I could follow pros, too, wow -- that was cool.
I love seeing what my favorite winemakers -- people like
Ross Cobb and Cathy Corison -- are drinking. Now, I follow people with similar palates to mine and un-follow
people with different tastes."
Fishman is convinced that his app will fulfill its mission. "If we do this right," he concluded, "the amount of
global happiness that's derived from wine will go up.
People will drink better and better wines, since our suggestions will be tailored to individual users."
