Think wearable art is cool...now in addition to Google Glass, an Indian company is going to start selling shoes that sync up with a smartphone app that uses Google maps and vibrates to tell you where to turn.

Last Friday night the partners of the firm went to Rao's for some special after hours fun.  Why "Where's Waldo"?  Because my 4 law partners are female as is our Office Manager and my life (wife) partner. So see if you can find Waldo in the above picture of my law and life partners. For sure, the staff and patrons at Rao's regarded me as the lucky man I am!Cue "Glory Days" or any other tune which catches my mood!

The Gay Head Lighthouse in Aquinnah on the westernmost tip of Martha’s Vineyard is being moved inland. The historic lighthouse, which has stood on its present spot since 1856, is in danger of falling into the sea as the cliffs to its north and west are eroding.

I won't give my age because that would be indiscreet, 46 (respects to the great Arthur Bach).  

Following a summertime tradition, last night after dinner Bill and I went for ice cream to our local Carvel. As we were sitting outside, all of a sudden I noticed that we were both quiet. Now, the two girls sitting on the bench next to us were not quiet at all but we were doing that thing – you know, admit it, you do it too.

One of the only rules for Gotham bloggers, that I am aware of, is that we are supposed to stay away from “political topics.” Understanding the reasons for it, I absolutely agree with this rule. But I find it so difficult to write today without acknowledging the tragedy of Malaysia Flight 17 and the conflict in Israel. Both incidents have made me profoundly sad.

Watching the Tour de France, I am thinking of Gino Bartali.  Born one hundered years ago, in 1914 in Florence, Bartali is one of the top five bicycle racers of all time.  He won the Giro d'Italia in 1936, 1937 and 1946.  And won the Tour de France in 1938 and then again after the war in 1948, his most famous victory.  It was the largest gap ever between victories at the Tour, ten years. He started to race as a boy with his brother, who died in a cylcing accident.   Bartali was a national hero

No pun intended...or maybe just a little :)   Tiger Woods made the cut yesterday in the British Open by making a birdie on the 18th hole. Without that he was a goner for the weekend. It's his first major and only second time playing competitive golf since his back surgery.
