Wednesday Google hosted a special edition of their annual "Demo Day" event featuring 11 early-stage startup companies founded by women from eight different countries. More than 450 women from 40 different counties applied for a spot, and the winner of the competition was Bridgit, a fast-growing Canadian company which provides a mobile communications platform for construction teams. Online voters also awarded the "Game Changer" title to KiChing, a startup that's actively addressing Mexico's unique e-commerce challenges. But all of the startups at Wednesday's event were already actively raising series-A funding, and "We aim to help connect them to mentors, access to capital, and shine a spotlight on their efforts," said Mary Grove, the director of Google for Entrepreneurs, addressing the Demo Day audience in San Francisco.

OK, Runaway, you have made your point, and no one agrees with it, so pack up your objections and your fetus parts and all your Rem. .223 ammo, and just head out to Colorado Springs! I hear it is lovely this time of year, much better than January, and there are lots of people to back you up in defending Jesus and the Bomber Wing of the OMG Nuclear we lost a bomb brigade. You know that in the end, rational people will win. They always do, because, you know, they are rational, and reality has a well known liberal bias. It really is time we shut down the Air Farce Academy out there in Mega-church town, and probably revoked the chaplinships of all those guys with credentials from Corinthian or worse based institutions. I mean heck, half of them cannot even read the Bible, because they cannot read at all! That is all well and good if you are an incestuous church like the Westboro Baptists, or the Assemblies of God, or Calvary Chapel, or any Pentacostal (ew, snakes!), or Methodist, or anything the derives from the swinging dong of Joseph Smith or the Prophet Mohammed, but for the rest of us (given that the list has thrown off most), none of this matters. We are fine with Chelsea Manning, and with our own Tsubasa, mostly because we do not ascribe to things we cannot understand. Do you understand God? Of course you don't because it is something designed to be beyond your understanding by persons who want to rape your young boys, and possibly girls, if there could be some celestial benefit to you if the sacrifice was made! Oh, sweet Jesus in your underpants! I hear that Christians, Christians of all stripes, not just the pedophiles, are upset at the rest of humanity mocking them. Well here's a thought: What if us mocking you is just channelling Jesus mocking your for being so stupid in your interpretation of what he said? You know this is more than possible, in fact, it is most likely the correct reading of this Prophet guy who hung out with prostitutes and brothers of indeterminate gender identity. I mean, Andrew? Even his cross was sideways!! Conclusion: There are no Christians left today, they are all Manicheanists, who want to believe in evil more than good, and in that they are right in line with ISIS, who is persecuting the people who actually believe this!

Do the schizophrenics come in packs now? Arist, I'd like to refer you to the tried-and-true DYA method.
