  • Looking for a great body shop

    Hi all, I need a great automotive body shop after being involved in a car accident. Need one which will give me a quote on the body work and also thoroughly check for structural damage (and then ultimately do the work). Any suggestions of a shop you've had great experiences with? Thanks!

  • Scholarship for Hop to Signaroo classes for families in need

    Do you know a hearing family who would like to sign with their hearing baby to greatly reduce frustration and aid early communication, but a class isn't in their budget?

    One scholarship for a family in need is available for every Hop to Signaroo four-week series offered through Swedish Medical Centers. The "application process" is simple, - just a phone call to Swedish's education director to explain your family's need. Recipients can then attend by paying just the $19 supply fee and whatever contribution they can make to the typical class tuition. It's that simple. Often these scholarships go unused, so if you know of a family interested in signing with their baby but they've hit an economic rough patch, please tell them about this offer. Hop to Signaroo evening classes will be held at Swedish Ballard and Swedish Cherry Hill in April and May. Class details are here. Thanks for spreading the word!

    Early communication and reduced frustration are literally at your fingertips!

  • Techie translation please

    I have an idea for a product I'd like to produce that would be a series of PDF's combined in an application that could be downloaded to an iphone, Blackberry or such high tech gadgets that I'm not very knowledgeable about. This would be an educational aid and the user would flip through the PDF's at their own pace to practice material covered in my classes. What sort of person would create such a thing? I'm not too tech savvy, so I'm not even sure what type of business to approach to create an application for an iphone or the like. Thanks!

  • Need some work done on my website

    My website is in need of a makeover. First and foremost, I'd like to change up the navigation and the format of the home page. What I can offer in return - American Sign Language lessons, custom original art (I do encaustic wax paintings of all sizes), I make my own line of all natural bath and beauty products and I'm an accomplished home chef who can cook up some fabulous meals for you to reheat as needed. I'm also a decent editor (former English teacher) and writer and can create press releases or marketing collateral for your biz. Other ideas? Let's talk.

  • My MANY talents ;0)

    Well, you all know my claim to fame is American Sign Language and teaching that brings me great joy, but I've also taught a variety of art classes over the years (far too many to list here in a wide variety of mediums for kids and adults). I'm also an accomplished home chef and can teach to all sorts of cooking related topics, and I've also sold my own line of all natural bath products on the side for several years and have taught classes on how to whip those up in your own kitchen.

  • Anyone happen to have an extra Michael Beckwith ticket?

    I know several Bizniks attend CSL, as I've seen some of you there. Anyone happen to have one extra Michael Beckwith ticket that they'd like to sell for his appearance at CSL this Friday? I didn't get my ticket in time and now the event is sold out. I checked Craig's List and a few others are looking for tickets, too. Pls let me know if you know of an extra ticket for sale. Thanks!

  • Does genetically engineered food and cloned meat on your dinner table scare you?

    Does genetically engineered food and cloned meat on your dinner table scare you? It should. It’s no big secret that I am indeed a big Obama supporter, but I received a notice today from a foodie group that I’m in regarding serious concerns about Obama’s appointee for Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack. Vilsack is a strong bio-tech proponent supporting genetically engineered crops and cloned animals.

    If you are concerned about the safety of what you eat, please read through the following information and sign the online petition by the Organic Consumer Association. Thanks...your voice can make a difference!

  • ART SALE this week...50 local artists - 1500 pieces and all just $40!

    Hi all,

    I am one of 50 artists participating in an art sale next weekend, called the Forgotten Works Challenge. Fifty artists were given thirty 8" x 10" canvases and had thirty days to complete them. All 1500 pieces will be displayed in mass and each piece sells for just $40.

    The finished pieces run the gamut of every medium imaginable...oil, acrylic, paper collage, stenciled spray painted creations, etc. etc. My contribution is thirty encaustic wax paintings. Encaustic wax is a combination of bees wax and intense pigment and my creations are ethereal, vibrantly-colored, abstract paintings with layers of color. Here's a posting I put on Craig's List. The top two, vibrantly-colored paintings are mine and the other two are from another participating artist.

    This sale is a great opportunity to support local artists and purchase original art work for just 40 smackers! Treat yourself and everyone on your holiday gift list to something totally original. Details are below and I do hope to see my fellow Bizniks there!

    Sneak Preview Showing - Wednesday December 3rd – 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. (No sales this day but the best pieces go quickly the day of the show, so it’s wise to scope out the show in advance if you can.)

    Big Opening Show and Sale - Thursday December 4th - 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. (Get there early for the best purchases!)

    Open Sale Day - Saturday December 6th - Noon to 5 p.m.

    CASH AND CHECKS ONLY...NO DEBIT OR CREDIT CARDS

    Location: The Tashiro Kaplan Building at 115 Prefontaine Place South in Pioneer Square MAP

  • What, no election talk on the forum this morning??

    So are most of us just so elated that we're speechless...or are some still licking their wounds. I'm surprised no one has started a thread on the election outcome yet...not even that winning crustacean himself, Barack Lobster!

    I will simply say that the song "Oh Happy Day" has been floating through my head nonstop since last night.

    Any polling place horror stories to share? Or answer to these two questions...

    • Why doesn't everyone choose mail in voting with all the polling place problems we've experienced or witnessed in the last three presendential elections? (I've used it for years....piece of cake and in my opinion, as safe as what happens at the polls.)

    • How and when and is this country going to fix the polling system nightmare?

    • As an entrepreneur, do you think the new administration will positively affect your business, and if so how?

    • Why the heck do people not vote? I had a first (and last) date with a man last weekend who never votes. He said that it doesn't matter who's in office, as none of it affects his life. What?? I cannot wrap my brain around this and have no respect for this attitude. Even after some discussion, his reasoning was completely illogical. Honestly, I take it as a sign that he is too lazy or not bright enough to educate himself on the candidtaes and the issues.

    Thoughts?
