We’ve been going through a melter of a heat wave here in New York, and it’s likely you’ve been experiencing the same if you are in the US (and by the way, we’d like to know who and where you are, dear readers). Wafting through what was left of our wilting brains was Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing where temperature is as much a character as Mookie, Sal and Radio Raheem. DJ Mr. Senor Love Daddy starts the films with the forecast: Hot, over 100 degrees…
So, on the day that our heat wave finally broke, New York did the right thing: The Marriage Equality Act, which was passed on June 24, 2011 by the New York State Legislature and signed by Governor Andrew Cuomo on the same day, was put into effect. We say Bravo New York and congratulations to all the newlyweds.

Why not let us help you create a great mobile communication platform that your customers and clients can take with them where ever they go? We think tote bags are the perfect medium for direct, person to person, communication. And we’ve got them in whatever size, shape, style and color you could possible want (or use our designDirect service  to modify an exiting item or create a new one from scratch).
Another approach to enlighten customers, clients, and/or the public is with a handy flashlight. We’ve got flashlights that run the gamut from solar and handcranked to your more traditional mini-mag light.
