Drop off Textiles for Recycle and benefit Heart House Dallas
Dude, get rid of it! Did you know that 2.5 billion lbs. of textiles are recycled every year? If you want to be authentic Saturday, April 23rd, drop off clothes, shoes, belts, handbags, toys and stuffed animals, sheets and other gently owned soft goods between 10 am - 5 pm. We know it means spending a little time dealing with closets and drawers first, but The Earth will thank you - and it’s a drive-through.
Makeups & Breakups with Nouveau 47
What better time to reflect on your best relationships and biggest breakups than with stories about love gone right and oh so wrong, on this one night only that’s BYOB?
2011; Goodbye Shabby, Hello Chic
Thank you for checking us out.
After waiting out the bad economy these past five years, it’s on! Intownmix is growing up to what it was originally designed; a Business-to-Business Web Magazine for small business owners and family owned businesses (large & small) with a Lifestyle Business-to-Consumer Guide. In the coming weeks, the weekly newsletter will get a make-over but no worries, it will still be chock-full of sass, unique business stories and happenings by entertainment district.
Does Net Neutrality Loss = The New Ghetto
As a growing small media company owner, some of you know of my involvement in lobbying for Net Neutrality, which is the continued absence of regulation in regards to the Open Internet and something everyone should agree on and embrace. This critical issue will be decided, as called by FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski yesterday. In the grand scheme of things, this affects all of us so today I’m encouraging all of you to learn about and support Net Neutrality and to encourage the FCC Board, located below, to vote against a Tier System on the Open Internet on December 21, 2010.
Basically Beethoven
The annual Basically Beethoven Festival by the Fine Arts Chamber Players is a series of complimentary classical chamber music concerts and recitals that take place every Sunday afternoon in July. Performances by professional musicians from across North Texas are inside the Grand Hall in Texas Discovery Gardens Main Building. Rising stars perform from 2:30-2:50 pm with Feature Performances from 3:00-4:00 pm.
Big Bang Lite
A spark of madness inspired Councilman Dwaine Caraways’ personal declaration to get it back up after the City’s annual complimentary Independence Day shebang was temporarily defused by the Friends of Fair Parks’ failure to launch due to the charge of economic uncertainty which took this year’s patriotic boom by complete surprise.
I think witty Benjamin Franklin would have found great humor in the now you see it, now you don’t, Cinco de Julio fireworks show with leftover fireworks and a generous donation by Gold Metal Recyclers. Thanks to the 11th hour sponsor; the Pyrotechnic Spree is saved!
Beginning next week
The weekly newsletter will hit inboxes on Tuesdays. We’ve taken this week to get some system and maintenance tasks completed.
Happy Memorial Day! Thank you and see you next week.
