macromonday theme "obsolete"
This card is no longer in general use...or any use for that matter. I think that pretty much defines obsolete.

Passion, Risk and Reward
Monday, January 21, 2013
We hear so much about following our passions; but what about the risks? And are there rewards? Join us at the Iron Yard for some great TEDX Greenville talks with local entrepreneurs, and mix and mingle afterward with some of the most creative people in town!
The Iron Yard is a launch-pad for entrepreneurs and creative people. Providing innovation, education, co-working, mentorship, capital, and events for the technology and design communities, Greenville is proud to have this great launch-pad in our community!
The Participants
Co-Curator: Peter Barth,
The Iron Yard
Peter went to Vanderbilt University, where he studied computer engineering. After school he did what all engineers do: moved to Manhattan to become an options and securities principal at Duke & Company (and later Morgan Stanley). Minting deals and moving stock was fun, but a few years on Wall Street reminded Pete he was a hacker at heart. He packed up his computer and family and headed to Indianapolis to develop software for SinglePoint, an enterprise payroll service. With hard work and technical expertise, he worked his way up to CTO and purchased a stake in the business. In 2006, Peter moved his family again, but this time to sunny South Carolina. In Greenville, Peter has taken leadership roles in the development of NEXT, the NEXT Innovation Center, InternGreenville, and the Southeast's premier startup accelerator, The Iron Yard.
Presenter: Jon McClure,
Entrepreneur, Leader, Founder and President of ISO Poly Films
Born with entrepreneurism in his blood, Jon McClure established his first business at age 12 and sold another business while in college. With $1,200 in his pocket and a $10,000 line of credit, he took his business savvy and expertise in the plastics films industry and founded ISO Poly Films. The company extruded its first pound of film in Gray Court, SC in 1998 and, next year, expects to produce 130 million pounds of film for various applications including food packaging, consumer electronics, medical devices, pharmaceuticals and industrial products. Under Jon's leadership, the company has completed three major expansions and recently opened a second plant in Vancouver, Washington. In its early years, ISO Poly Films was named to Entrepreneur Magazine's "Hot 100" Small Business list by Dun & Bradstreet, and Jon was named Carolinas Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst & Young. Today, ISO Poly Films has 110 employees and expects to generate $150 million in sales.
Presenter: Chancy Lindsey-Peake, Owner and Founder of Banana Manna, LLC
Chancey, owner and founder of Banana Manna, began baking out of necessity in her home with 6 borrowed pans. She didn’t set out to start a business, but to survive. Chancey went to different local markets to sell her bread, but word spread quickly and she started baking for different festivals, where she saw the potential to make Banana Manna a full-time business. Soon after, she was introduced to Nasha Lending and became their first entrepreneur. Since then, she has moved into the Downtown Greenville Farmers Market, opened a retail space, and baking bread has become a full-time job. Ask Chancey what she is most proud of and she responds: "I am most proud of the variety of flavors that I bake; after people try all my samples, they still can’t decide.
I got the Disney Movie Rewards Disneyland Diamond Celebration Limited Release Pin by redeeming 900 points on the US DMR site. It was released online on July 15, 2015 and sold out the same day. It was shipped on July 17, and I received it on July 24.
It depicts the Sleeping Beauty Castle decorated with faux blue diamonds. The silver lettering on the pin is embossed, and the castle has a blue tint. It has two pin posts, and comes with a custom backing card. It is an official Disney Parks Pin Trading pin. It is more elegant and detailed than the similar Disney Parks OE DL60 Jeweled Castle Pin ($11.95, available in Disneyland), which has smaller faux white diamonds, and flat lettering. I compare the two pins side by side.

I've been impressed by this building for a while and finally got a photo of it. A night scene was what I wanted the most. It was where I ended my long day, working until late has good rewards.

Day 18, January 18th
Week 3 of 52 weeks of feeling fit.
I've set a number of goals for myself around working out, eating healthy and other good habits. Each goal has been assigned a small value, and at the end of the week, the accumulated reward goes in here, for spending later. The jar has now joined my 'budget jars' on the shelf.
Right now, I'm saving up for an expensive yet unbelievably cool pair of shoes - Fleuvogs maybe.
It's gonna be a while.
