Jon Stewart #Infographic

Since first appearing on the show in 1999, Jon Stewart tackled political and social issues with an unrelenting fearless wit dissimilar to anyone else in his field. Many may disagree with the news anchor’s comedic demeanor, and overall reliability, but Jon Stewart approached politics for what it was: a game. He wasn’t afraid to use humor to blatantly call out money-grubbing government officials and corrupt government practices. Additionally, he welcomed culture-clashing, social issues onto his show’s agenda, tirelessly attempting to reveal the truth of such situations, all the while keeping his audience amply entertained. Approaching news in his own unique manner, Jon Stewart managed to establish himself as one of the most iconic entertainers and journalists of recent years. He always strived to speak truth in news, an almost extinct practice for other news programs according to this previously published infographic. Today’s infographic explores Jon Stewart’s legacy, and offers hints as to who his eventual successor may be.

Straight Outta Compton - Where Are They Now #Infographic

In light of all the recent “Straight Outta ______” memes, what better choice for an infographic than one detailing the entrepreneurial empires of each of the surviving members of N.W.A. It’s no secret N.W.A. was one of the most influential and commercially successful rap groups in the history of hip-hop. Not only did they revolutionize rap music, but they created a launch pad for the West Coast rap scene unlike any before them. They rapped about the struggles of living in the slums of Compton, and all the drugs, crime, and anger that came along with it. They didn’t care about who they were offending, they were just speaking the truth of their lives. Since taking the L.A. hip-hop scene by storm in 1986, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, MC Ren, and DJ Yella have all done pretty well for themselves (some better than others – RIP Eazy-E!). As many know, Dr. Dre owns and operates multi-million dollar headphone company, Beats, while Ice Cube has made quite the name for himself in Hollywood (for better or worse). What some might not know though, is that DJ Yella has generated quite the storm in the American pornography industry, while MC Ren has become founder and owner of record label, Villain Entertainment.

The Evolution of the Washer Machine from Samsung #Infographic

A washing machine's average lifespan of 10 years means consumers generally look for a new one every decade or so. Shoppers checking out new models might be surprised at the changes during the past 10 years. Washing machines can come as top-loading or front-loading models and generally offer larger load capacities and more efficient water usage. New washing machines are preset for water levels. In the older days, people would be looking in and seeing how much water they needed. A washing machine from Samsung, the WA8700, features a built-in sink that people can use to pretreat their delicate clothes. The size would surprise people. Now you can wash a comforter and things like that with this machine. Some Samsung models also work with a dedicated smartphone app that enables users to check the status of their machine's load.

Satisfaction #SRC2015

I am spending my summer traveling with BookSparks in this year’s #SRC2015. Right now, I am traveling with Satisfaction by Andee Reilly. Destination: Road trip from L.A. To OK..

About The Book:
When 22-year-old Ginny Martin discovers her husband has been cheating on her, she strikes back by purchasing tickets to every concert on the Rolling Stones North American tour with their shared credit card, packing up the car, and taking to the road. As she follows the Rolling Stones from Los Angeles to Oklahoma City, Ginny experiences freedom for the first time - and begins to deal with the insecurities and limiting beliefs that have kept her suburban life far too small. Bree Cooper is a nomad, a free-spirited drifter, and a mother who abandoned responsibility - and her young daughter. When Ginny meets Bree at a roadside diner, they impulsively make the decision to throw their lot in together. In each other, they find a friendship that they have both longed for: Bree gives Ginny a chance to have a mother figure who inspires independence and encourages confidence, while Ginny gives Bree a chance to get parenting right on the second try. Together, they find the courage to break free of the past - and to blaze new paths to happiness.

My Thoughts:
This is a book about free spirited women, and those who wish to be like them. It's all a bit fantastical, who wouldn't want to run away from it all sometimes? But is it reality? Can it really happen? It is fun to follow along with these women and see their stories!

About The Author:
Andee Reilly was born and raised in Los Angeles. She received her MFA in Creative Writing from the University of California, Riverside and teaches literature and writing at California State University Channel Islands. As a teenager, she fell in love with the Rolling Stones, and their music has long served as an inspiration to her writing. She currently divides her time between Los Angeles and Maui.

Buy this book at Satisfaction on Amazon.
