Don’t give up on skin during the colder months ahead During the fall, when temperatures drop, skincare steps that were crucial during the hot summer months can often be overlooked because skin isn’t as exposed. Instead of waiting until skin is uncomfortably dry and itchy, make sure you’re moisturizing every day so skin stays soft, smooth and supple. And with all of the gatherings and parties that happen through fall and winter, you want to feel comfortable and confident in whatever you wear - whether it’s a short cocktail dress or a sleeveless top. So, if you’re the type to hide red, flaky skin under layers of clothing every fall and winter, consider these simple tips that will have you prepared to bare your arms and legs during one of the biggest party seasons. * Stop the scratching - With dry air comes dry skin, which can cause irritating itchy spots. Scratching those spots damages the skin and leaves red welts amongst the white scaly patches. Add a little moisture into the air at home using a humidifier, especially in the bedroom where you sleep at night. Research by the University of Minnesota found that if the outdoor temperature is between zero and 40 F, and the
indoor temperature is set at 70 F, the relative humidity level indoors should be between 30 and 40 percent. Your skin, hair and sinuses will notice the extra humidity indoors, helping you to feel more comfortable in your skin. * Moisturizer is key-- Although a simple step, moisturizing is often overlooked. But you’d be surprised how applying a layer every day can make you feel more comfortable and confident. “With all the parties during fall and winter, you don’t have time to sacrifice fashion because of poor skincare choices,” shares FashionIndie.com blogger Beca Alexander. “There’s no better feeling than flaunting your legs in the perfect little black dress. Every day, I apply NIVEA Extended Moisture Body Lotion. It keeps my skin so moisturized and absorbs quickly. I also make sure to apply it to my arms and then spritz on my perfume - it helps the scent last!” -Areas to remember moisturizing include the elbows, feet and neck, as these areas build up a tough layer of skin when dried out. * Add a bit of coloring - Self-tanning product technology has improved greatly over the years, and allows women to give their skin a hint of color without exposing it to any
UV rays. After moisturizing, carefully apply a spray or cream tanner to the skin, being sure to thoroughly wash your hands and wrists once finished. Apply lightly and work in layers, so you don’t overdo it with too much coloring. * Cater to special features - Lips, eyes and the nose are often affected by the colder temperatures more than the rest of the body. Be sure to give these features of your face loving attention with extra moisturizing products like lip balm and ointment during the winter months. Also be sure to cover your face while outside with scarves to help prevent additional damage from
the cold wind. By maintaining your skin’s moisture as much as possible, you will feel much more comfortable and know that you can show off your beauty, even as the temperatures drop and the air gets drier.

Five fun and affordable fall activities your family will love Crisp air, changing leaves and cozy knit sweaters signify the return of autumn. Fall can be a busy time for most families, juggling back-to-school routines, carpools, homework, after school events and sports practice. Now is a great time to slow down, bring the whole family together and enjoy all of the exciting activities fall has to offer.Here are a few fun ways to spend quality time with your family and relish in fall to the fullest: 1. Visit an apple orchard. This is a great way to make the most of the beautiful fall weather and do something active with the family. Use apples to make apple sauce, a tasty tart or just slice them up for a great on-the-go snack. Try unique apple varieties you’ve never tried they all taste a bit different! Pack a picnic for the orchard and include Marzetti Caramel Dip Snack Packs to dip the apples you pick. The dips are an easy and fun way to treat your family to the flavors of fall. And with varieties like Old Fashioned and Fat Free, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. 2. Go for a nature walk. With the vibrant, colorful leaves and the cool, crisp air, autumn is a great time to get your family outdoors and learn more about nature in a local
nature preserve or state park. Pick up a few fall mementos along the way to integrate into crafts. For example, bring home some colorful leaves and decoupage them onto the outside of a mason jar to create a seasonal fall candle holder, or create a lively fallinspired canvas incorporating several different leaf shapes and colors. 3. Gear up for Holidays Host a Fall themed get-together by incorporating fun foods the kids can help prepare and will love to eat! Use a pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter to create cut-out cookies and involve the kids in decorating - with everything from sprinkles to frosting. Or, for a quick and easy themed treat, try making marshmallow lollipops drizzled with chocolate or caramel dip, then use chopped nuts or candy bits to make ghoulish faces.4. Visit a local farmers market. Fall offers a whole new repertoire of amazing fresh fruits and vegetables. Encourage your kids to try new items like figs, acorn squash or cauliflower. If they find samples that they enjoy, purchase a few and find a way to incorporate them into your next meal. You can also buy items such as tomatoes and pickle peppers in bulk, and then can at the end of season to store for the long winter ahead. 5. Have a bonfire.

Top trends for a fall wardrobe update Fall fashion magazines can easily top 500 pages of skirts, tops, pants, coats and accessories; all deemed “must-haves” for the chilly weather ahead. The choices and trends can be staggering, but just because temperatures are falling doesn’t mean you need to drop a small fortune on a new wardrobe. Fashion experts from two of the Art Institutes schools share six of the top trends for fall and how you can use them to make the most of the pieces already in your closet. Animal print - “Look at any magazine and you’re going to see animal print,” says Stefani Bay, fashion instructor at The Illinois Institute of Art - Chicago. She says everything is in animal print. Whether black and white or a crazy color, this trend can be found on garments, shoes, bags and scarves. According to Bay, adding an animal print piece to any outfit in your closet will make you look “of the moment.” Tweed - “Tweeds are a very important fashion story this fall,” says Emil DeJohn, fashion instructor at The Art Institute of Philadelphia. Each year a variety of tweeds grace the runways of Fashion Week, but this year they are stealing the spotlight, especially in black and white versions
of houndstooth, Donegal tweed, and herringbone. “A tweed jacket is the perfect thing over something old,” says Bay, especially when it’s a colorful tweed over a colorful outfit. Other options include tweed scarves and even handbags. Leather - “When isn’t leather right?” asks Bay. DeJohn agrees adding whether it’s trim, collar and cuff, or the entire jacket, leather is something every woman should have in her closet this fall. You can find this incredibly versatile textile in jeans, blouses and accents, but according to Bay, the big story for leather is the motorcycle jacket. You can find motorcycle jackets in all price points, made from leather, faux leather, vinyl or patent leather. Added to your closet it will make anything look more current. Black and white - A perennial favorite of chic women the world over, black and white is a big trend for fall, especially when paired with a bright shocking color, says DeJohn. The perfect way to jazz up black and white is with a punch of the season’s soft orange, citrus green, bright royal blue, gold or royal purple. “You can put anything black and white over a white

shirt to look crisp and professional,” says Bay. You can also do the same with a black T-shirt or add a punch of black and white with a handbag. Dresses - “Dresses made a major comeback. Every designer had a number of dresses in their collection,” says DeJohn. Dresses are easy, convenient and versatile. “They take you from day to evening,” says Bay. She recommends wearing a favorite dress with a motorcycle jacket and boots for day, and chandelier earrings and heels for evening. She cautions that the most important thing with
dresses is fit. And if you have an old dress with a great pattern or color, just add a motorcycle jacket to give it new life. Hats and scarves - According to DeJohn, hats are also making a comeback. He says they are an easy and practical update to any outfit, with a variety to suit all face shapes. Bay says scarves are another trend in fall accessories. For daytime, she recommends wearing a long woven scarf wrapped around multiple times, and for evening add a beaded scarf to a black dress.

Irvine Barclay Theatre today announced an engagement of Potted Potter, the unauthorized Harry Experience, a parody by Dan and Jeff, for four performances only, Thursday, November 14-Saturday, November 16, 2013. Written and performed by two-time Olivier Award-nominated actors Daniel Clarkson and Jefferson Turner, Potted Potter is perfect for ages six to Dumbledore (who is very old indeed). This engagement is the show’s Southern California premiere. Potted Potter is presented by Irvine Barclay Theatre and is produced by Starvox Entertainment and Marketing. Playing to sold-out houses all over the world, the Olivier Awardnominated Potted Potter takes on the ultimate challenge of condensing all seven Harry Potter books (and a game of Quidditch with the audience) into seventy fun-filled minutes. Even if you don’t know the difference between a Horcrux and a Hufflepuff,
the silly magic of Potted Potter will have you in its spell. Audience members are invited to come early. Doors will open an hour before each show with a variety of pre-show activities and special Potter menu items at the concessions bar. Potted Potter was first created as a five minute long, two-man show to entertain bookstore customers waiting in line to purchase the sixth book in the series and was then a comic summary of the first five books. Since then, the piece has been expanded and performed by Children’s BBC host team Clarkson and Turner literally thousands of times – at the Edinburgh Festival, in the West End, off Broadway and across America to much acclaim. A critic’s Pick by the New York Times, New York Magazine, and Time Out London, Potted Potter won the prestigious 2012 Olivier Award nomination for Best Entertainment &
Family Show. The New York Times said, “The flavor is Monty Python meets vaudeville…Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Turner do indeed tell an abbreviated, ridiculous version of the Boy Who Lived… You don’t need to know all the nuances of Hogwarts to enjoy the jokes... Besides, if you miss something, another laugh will be along shortly…The duo cast the perfect spell over the audience.” Irvine Barclay’s President Doug Rankin said, “The Barclay is thrilled to be able to bring Potted Potter to southern California for the area premiere. I’m a big fan of the books, and now I’m a fan of Dan and Jeff and their fresh, fun take on the Harry Potter lore.” Tickets (Adults $45.00; Children $35.00) can be purchased at the Irvine Barclay Theatre, 4242 Campus Drive, Irvine CA, online at www.thebarclay. org, or by calling 949.854.4646.
It is the Soldier, not the minister, who has given us freedom of religion. It is the Soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the Soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us freedom to protest. It is the Soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the Soldier, not the politician, who has given us the right to vote. It is the Soldier who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag, And whose coffin is draped by the flag, Who allows the protester to burn the flag. -George Patton Historical Society The San Clemente News

NEW ARTIFACTS ADDED TO MISSION TREASURES EXHIBIT Mission San Juan Capistrano’s permanent exhibit “Mission Treasures: Historical Collection Revealed” has expanded with newly acquired artifacts. Beginning Friday, Nov. 1, the exhibit will present a pair of recently purchased watercolor paintings by noted California plein air artist Elmer Wachtel (1864-1929), who created the pieces in the early 1900s. The unique pair of watercolor paintings by Elmer Wachtel depict portions of the Mission’s south wing, Sala and Great Stone Church ruins. The paintings were purchased from Colin Young, Fine Art of Early California, with privately donated funds. They are the first paintings in the Mission’s collection by this influential California artist, and are important additions to the Mission’s historic art collection which the staff hopes to continue to develop with donations and purchases of significant, Missionrelated works of art. Also added to the exhibit’s priceless collection are several personal items which belonged to the Great Restorer (1910-33)
of Mission San Juan Capistrano, Father St. John O’Sullivan, including his rosary and a water pitcher. Another change to the Mission Treasures exhibit includes moving the Mission’s original birth, death and marriage registers to the safe keeping of the Diocese Archives. It is a result of an effort to preserve and protect the delicate historic paper documents in accordance with generally accepted conservation guidelines. Mission Treasures: Historical Collection Revealed features rare paintings, precious religious and historic artifacts, and documents related to the Mission’s history. They are treasures because of their connections with the people and place of Mission San Juan Capistrano and unique representations of the past. About Mission San Juan Capistrano: Known as the “Jewel of the Missions,” Mission San Juan Capistrano is a historic landmark and museum that boasts of quality permanent exhibits featuring original artifacts as well as traveling and temporary exhibits

the pope has cross-generational appeal A young boy wandered onto the stage at the Vatican this past weekend, hugging Pope Francis as he tried to give a speech. The boy, who looks about 6, was originally sitting on the steps near the pope, while Francis listened to followers address him at the Vatican’s Year of Faith Celebration. Boys will be boys, and this one wanted a closer look at the man in the robe. So he wandered up to give
a personal hello. But the boy’s misadventure didn’t end there. He kissed the cross around the Pope’s neck. He refused to be ushered back to his seat, and as other people came on stage to greet the pope, the boy did his best to keep them from honing in on his new buddy. Eventually Francis convinced the child to take a seat. But he didn’t go back to his spot on the steps. Instead,
the rambunctious youngster sat on the pope’s chair while he continued his speech, which led to this a-dor-able photo that @pegobry posted on Twitter. The interaction goes to show that the pope has some serious crossgenerational appeal and that you can get away with a lot when you’re a kid and don’t know any better.

Girl Scouts Recognizes Six Extraordinary OC Leaders Nearly 400 guests came together to recognize six extraordinary local female leaders, all Girl Scout Alumnae, and raise over $271,000 for Girl Scouts of Orange County at its Fourth Annual Celebrate Leadership event at the Island Hotel in Newport Beach. Each honoree was matched with a current Orange County Girl Scout through a shared “key to leadership,” linking these leaders of tomorrow with leaders of today. Each guest went home with a beautiful 2014 Keepsake Calendar, featuring stunning photographs of the honorees with their partner Girl Scouts. The 2013 Celebrated Leadership Honorees are: Ashleigh Aitken, of Anaheim Hills, Of Counsel at Aitken*Aitken *Cohn; Shannon Eusey, of Newport Beach, Co-founder and President of Beacon Pointe Advisors; Donna Giordano, of Huntington Beach, President of Ralphs Grocery Company, Joan Patronite Kelly, of Huntington Beach, Managing Principal and co-founder of BonTerra Consulting; Ingrid Otero-Smart, of Capistrano Beach, President of Casanova Pendrill and Laila Pence, of Tustin, Owner and President of Pence Wealth Management “We are proud to recognize these exceptional women,” said Nancy Nygren, CEO of Girl Scouts of Orange County. “They are each leaders in their respective fields and truly serve as role models for tomorrow’s female leaders.” An outstanding event committee chaired by Nella Webster O’Grady of Palo Capital, helped make the event a tremendous success. The silent auction area was abuzz with excitement as bidders were perusing all the fabulous items available. Dinner was served, attendees started off with Organic Baby Greens with Chevre, Candied Pecans, Roasted Apples with Balsamic Dressing. The entrée was a Petite Filet of Beef with Red Wine Sauce and Chimichurri on Potato au Gratin with Maine Diver Scallops on Truffle Risotto, Ragout of Mushrooms, Carrots and Brussel Sprouts. Featured on the tables were the delectable Tiered Center Piece of Desserts which included Chocolate Salted Carmel Mousse and Lemon Meringue Tart. After dinner, the live auction was started with some folks going head to head trying to get their favorite item. Top live auction items for the evening were a private boat parade party for 50 at the elegant harbor home of Victoria and David Collins, including catering; a personal golf tournament for 12 at Shady Canyon Golf Club and the most sought after item of the evening, one lucky guest won a lock up and lunch with Sheriff Hutchens from the Orange County Sheriff’s Department. Funds raised will support Girl Scouts of Orange County’s high quality leadership development programs for more than 22,000 Girl Scouts and to recruit, train, and support the more than 14,000 adult members and volunteers who guide and support them. In addition, funds will be used to develop new Girl Scout programs focusing on career exploration and changing the world, while emphasizing the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) skills. Girl Scouts is the nation’s preeminent leadership development program and the leading authority on girls’ healthy development. According to a recent study conducted by the Girl Scout Research Institute in conjunction with an independent research firm, women who were Girl Scouts as children display significantly more positive life outcomes than non-Girl Scout alumnae, with higher perceptions of self, higher rates of volunteerism and civic engagement, higher rates of college education and higher household incomes than non-alumnae. Girl Scouts is in its 101st year of building girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. In Orange County alone, over 22,000 Girl Scouts from every social and economic background are developing values, skills and abilities for success in the 21st century.

pumpkin and cheesecake - a great holiday tradition Pumpkin Cheesecake Yield: 10 servings 3 (8-ounce) packages fat-free cream cheese, softened 3/4 cup canned pumpkin 3/4 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon Dash ground cloves Dash nutmeg 3 eggs 1/3 cup graham cracker crumbs 1. Mix cream cheese, pumpkin, sugar, vanilla and spices with an electric mixer (medium speed) until well-blended. Add eggs. Mix just until blended. Do not overbeat after adding eggs. 2. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle bottom of pan with crumbs. 3. Pour cream cheese into prepared pie plate. 4. Bake at 325 F for 45 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool. Refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
Seven simple tips for prepping your home for the holidays There’s something about the holiday season that makes gathering with family and friends extra special. But between the cooking, decorating and shopping, preparing for the holidays with that never-ending to-do list can be overwhelming. To reduce stress and stay organized, make a list of all the tasks you need to complete around the house, and apply a deadline for each project. This will help you prioritize and stay on schedule, eliminating any last-minute scrambles.
Page 14
Of course, there are standard household chores like vacuuming, window wiping and counter cleaning, but don’t forget to consider these other holiday prep projects that may not be on your list. 1. Clean the oven - The oven is the heart of any kitchen, so it’s especially important to clean it to prevent excess smoke and other kitchen hazards. But don’t create additional problems by using a cleaner with smelly fumes. Rather, opt for a quick, easy-to-use product like Goo Gone Oven & Grill
The San Clemente News
Cleaner, a surface-safe alternative to general oven cleaners that does the work for you with its-super-cling foam and low odor formula. Look for it at your local retailer or purchase it online at www.googone.com. 2. Clear the fridge - Create space in your fridge and throw out any expired products, making room for your holiday menu items and any unexpected dishes that guests may bring. While you’re at it, make sure you clear plenty of counter space for your holiday menu items. 3. Freshen the carpet - Regular vacuuming will help eliminate surface dirt and pet hair, but it won’t eliminate set-in stains and ground-in grime. Depending on budget and time, you can either rent a carpet deep cleaner or hire a professional to clean the carpeted rooms of your home prior to hosting your big holiday event. In a time crunch? Focus on the high-traffic areas of your home like the living, family and dining rooms. 4. Empty a closet - No one wants to wear a wrinkled coat home from a party. Instead of tossing guests’ coats in a bedroom, maintain your privacy and clear out a closet near an entry where guests can hang their coats
while visiting. 5. Create more space - Give guests the freedom to unwind and relax at your holiday gathering by offering them enough space to do so. Store extra throw pillows, blankets and toys in bins or chests to create more seating space for guests. 6. Deodorize your home - What’s a surefire way to put a damper on your holiday gathering? Have guests enter a space plagued by unpleasant odors. Keep deodorizing sprays, candles or oils on hand to add a favorite scent to a room or to eliminate any undesirable odors left behind from an unfortunate cooking incident. For a cheaper alternative, boil an orange peel, which releases its natural oils into the air for a pleasant citrus scent. 7. Stock extra toiletries - For overnight guests, provide extra toiletries they may have forgotten like travel-size shampoo, soap, lotion, shaving cream, toothpaste, a toothbrush and cotton swabs. With these tips, some time and a bit of advanced planning, your home will be holiday-ready, leaving you stressfree to enjoy the most wonderful time of the year with those you love.

boys and girls clubs Help give kids the tools they need to succeed in school with Take a moment to consider this alarming fact: Each year more than 1 million American teens fail to graduate from high school, according to the Editorial Projects in Education Research Center. The consequences of this staggering statistic are felt not just throughout their lives, but also across our nation. A host of research shows that dropouts are more likely to develop health problems, live in poverty and be victims of crime. The problem impacts our economy as well, costing as much as $209 billion in lost taxes and higher government expenditures over the lifetimes of those who fail to graduate, according to research by the Teachers College, Columbia University, Center for Benefit-Cost Studies of Education. “Students do not fall behind because they lack ability, intelligence or initiative,” says Jim Clark, president and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA). “Often, it’s the lack of access to basic school tools and quality after-school programming that holds children back. Access to those tools can help ensure they achieve
academic success and, eventually, a great future.” Now, you can help, too. Through September, BGCA’s annual Tools for Back-to-School campaign offers two ways to put much-needed school supplies in the hands of Club youth. First, take the quiz at GreatFutures. org/BacktoSchool, where right answers earn supplies for Boys & Girls Clubs. You can also drop off school supplies such as notebooks, pens, pencils and backpacks in collection bins at Disney Stores, Boys & Girls Clubs of America is launching the Tools for Back-toMichael’s and Staples. Local Boys & School campaign to put much-needed school supplies in the hands of Girls Clubs will distribute the donated deserving youth. supplies to Club members in their communities. “Our annual supply drive is just one of the ways our more than 4,000 Clubs help our Club members graduate from high school on time, ready for a post-secondary education and a 21st-century career,” Clark says. “We are grateful for the public’s support of these efforts.” To learn more about Boys & Girls Clubs of America, visit www. GreatFutures.org. Access to basic school tools and quality after-school programming can help ensure that students achieve academic success. The San Clemente News

Originally called Armistice Day in the USA, it was celebrated under that name until 1968, when the name was changed to Veterans Day. From 1971 to 1978, however, the federal holiday for Veterans Day was moved to the last Monday in October. In 1978, November 11 became once again the official date of the Veterans Day observance. Memorial Day takes place in May, falling either on May 30, or on the last Monday of the month, whether before or after May 30. This date honors May 8, V-E Day in Europe after World War II, but was also close to the date when the Civil War ended in 1865. Federal Holidays on Memorial Day vs Veterans Day The Monday of Memorial Day is always a federal holiday. It is also considered the first long weekend of the summer, and is a time for family Page 16
celebration. The Federal government, banks, schools, the post office and most businesses are closed on Memorial Day Monday. Veterans Day is an observance on the specific date of November 11. It can therefore fall on any day of the week. In most states, schools, banks and the post office close on that day. Many banks, businesses and even schools are changing their approach to Veterans Day, choosing to remain open rather than have a midweek holiday. Due to America’s relatively brief participation in World War I, November 11 is not as significant a date for Americans as it is for their allies from Canada, Britain, France, Belgium, Holland and other countries in Europe. What is Commemorated on Memorial Day and Veterans Day The Memorial Day ceremony is a somber occasion when Americans remember their military dead, by gathering at cenotaphs across the country. Taps is played on a bugle and various regiments and levels of government lay wreaths at the cenotaph. Veterans Day is a more joyful celebration of gratitude toward all members of the armed forces who participated in wars. The aspect of thanking stillliving veterans, and those currently in the armed forces, for their service, is the major part of Veterans Day.

15 Futuristic Technologies That Will Transform Small Business by Jason Nazar Apps and Software Cashless Shopping It’s only a matter of time before everyone will be able to pay without swiping cards, signing receipts or paying cash. Due to their ubiquity, smartphones appear to be the next key to cashless payment. Systems like PayPass mobile and Google Wallet allow customers to spend and send money directly from their phones while still building their credit card rewards. Studies have shown that consumers feel greater remorse when using cash and will spend larger amounts on credit cards, which is why many small businesses are willing to bear the extra expense of credit card charges. Will an increasingly painless tap-and-go system lead customers to spend even more money? Will it eventually lower credit card processing costs for small businesses? In-Person Customization Many believe that business will continue to shift towards the web, but technology also has the ability to enhance customer engagement and experience in-person. Customization technology will eventually allow brick-and-mortar stores to tailor the retail environment beyond what can be experienced at home, with devices such as a 3D body-scanning system called Me-ality, which helps customers to find the perfect fitting jeans, or the Marai Mirror, which allows shoppers to scan a makeup item and have it digitally added to their reflections in a virtual mirror. Virtual Organization and Workspaces Projections Anywhere Nothing’s worse than showing up with a PowerPoint presentation and not having the right HDMI cable. What if you could project the presentation directly from your smartphone onto the wall? Countless institutions, from MIT to Carnegie Mellon are working on simplified projection technology. The Omnitouch, for example, is a wearable device that allows you to project a highres touch-screen display on any surface, even the palm of your hand. This could help facilitate more impromptu meetings and collaboration, and allow a busy entrepreneur to travel lightly while making presentations and pitches in different locations. Touch-Interactive Desks While projections are nice for on-the-go organization, people will probably continue working at desks long into the future. But what if the desks themselves could be smarter? In comes technology like the BendDesk, a curved, interactive desk whose surface is comprised entirely of a backlit touch-screen. You can interact with virtual images, videos or documents, or even use a special pen to take digital notes. What about for the meeting room? Ideum has created a massive, multiuser, multi-touch screen table called Pano, which is over 8 feet long and could revolutionize group collaboration. While realistically interactive desks may be out of reach for bootstrapped businesses at first, for design or technology firms they may increase productivity so immensely they’d be worth the investment. 3D Holograms Ever since Leia told Obi-Wan that he was her only hope, we have dreamt of a time when 3D holograms would become a reality. Fact is, 3D holographic projections are already here, and they’re even higher quality than the visions of Star Wars. Companies like AV Concepts have already developed 3D holographic projections (see a pretty stunning video demonstration here) that allow businesspeople to give speeches to large crowds, workers to be telepresent in a meeting when they’re miles away, or a product launch to capture the imagination of an audience by displaying a lifesized model of their 3D prototype.

Human-Sensitive Computer Technology As society slowly becomes more computersavvy, computers are also becoming more humansavvy. Leap Motion has developed a computer motion sensor that allows you to scroll, zoom and write without touching a thing. While many of us use two screens to increase our productivity, advancements like MITs Perifoveal Display will eventually allow us to use four or five screens at once by tracking and reacting to the motion of our eyes. The screen you are focused on will brighten, and if something significant pops up on another screen it will flash brightly enough to catch your peripheral vision. This ability to track a larger amount of data can be critical for giving small businesses an edge over their competitors, whether it’s by analyzing live web traffic, following social media feeds or more closely tracking and reacting to customer activity. Prototypes and Manufacturing 3D Printers “3D printing” has become a recent buzzword, as over the last year or two 3D printers have become available to the general public. For businesses that produce physical goods or create threedimensional designs, personal 3D printers such as the Makerbot Replicator 2 symbolize the beginning of an era where smaller businesses and engineers can not only print and test their own models, but can perhaps eventually print actual goods to be sold. High-End Manufacturing Printing certainly has its limits, and for the moment small businesses continue to outsource all or most of their production to large-scale industrial manufacturers. What if small businesses could afford to handle heavy industrial equipment, such as metalwork or laser cutting on their own? Technologies such as Ford’s Freeform Fabrication Technology provide the first glimmer of hope for rapid and affordable production of customized metal prototypes and products. Meanwhile, industrial equipment that was once too expensive and powerful for any small business to consider, such as a high-precision laser cutter, is now becoming much more accessible, transportable and affordable. Wearable Technology Smartwatches Every business owner is toting around a smartphone these days, but what’s the next big step in personal devices? We all know about Google Glass, but with Apple’s latest patent on wrist technology, signs are pointing towards a potential pivot to the “smartwatch” (which seems more practical, seeing as watches are more difficult to lose or break than a phone or glasses). Countless concepts of the iWatch have been cropping up, and services such as Pebble and i’m Watch are already providing the first versions of

smartwatches that will make communication even more efficient. Bionic Contact Lenses Another wearable technology that offers less to carry and almost no risk of theft is wearable lenses. The intrusiveness and safety concerns surrounding contacts may posit it further in the future, but researchers at the University of Washington have already successfully tested pixel-sized bionic contact displays on rabbits. This technology could eventually allow you to open and read messages without moving a single muscle except your eyes. How useful could a tool like this be for increasing productivity during a lull in a business meeting? Or for looking up a person’s name during a networking event? Office Devices Telepresence Robots We all know about virtual meeting services like AnyMeeting and WebEx, but with these systems you are stuck at your desk with headphones on, and have limited ability navigate an office. With mobile remote presence robots like the Beam or Anybots, you can literally enter a meeting or walk and talk with someone down the hallway. These bots could eventually eliminate the need for expensive commuting or flying cross-country for a meeting, which may allow smaller local businesses to source workers from other locations. For businesses on a budget, cheaper and more pocket-sized options such as Botiful are currently available for an affordable rate. Bendable Laptops What if you could roll up your laptop like a yoga mat? That technology is currently in development; you can see a video demonstration of what unfurling the “RollTop,” (with OLED flexible-screen technology) would look like. Although bendable screens have yet to be released, the market for flexibility appears to be opening up; Lenovo has announced the release of a “Yoga” Ultrabook, whose screen can rotate almost 360 degrees. While a bendable computer may be mostly a novelty, the ability to roll up a self-charging laptop and carry it effortlessly just adds to the list of devices that could prove invaluable for entrepreneurs on the run. Memory-Enhanced Whiteboard Erasers What startup hasn’t pored over a blank whiteboard and covered it in brainstorms, upcoming plans and ideas? Eventually you need to erase the board, but what if you want to access those notes again later? A team of Japanese designers developed an Erascan, which allows you to scan the whiteboard while you erase it. The Erascan has been designed to identify handwriting, emails, drawings, URLs and more, then immediately store and email the content. Luckily, no technology has been developed to wipe minds… yet.
