xPollinate did not do so well
In my last post I found that the URL used as my blogs permalink was posted without the hostname (http://ping.fm/8qdTQ). Hmmm Well, I never base things on a single attempt, so here goes my send try....

Need some L.A. folks to help out!
Wow! I ask for help from you and you came to read about it? Awesome!
This is something that won’t be for everyone, and I do understand this; however, it is something that all of us need to live: Platelets. This little blood helpers replenish quickly in healthy people and do not make you feel weak in the process of self-replenishment.
I have a friend from work who’s son, Dylan, needs platelets to be donated in order for him to regain his health during his treatment. I will not go into all of the details of what his treatment is and all here, because his father, Eric, that also works for FIM already did a much better job with the whole story.
So… back to what I’m asking of you. I’m donating platelets tomorrow for Dylan and I’m hoping that you can do the same sometime soon. Even if Dylan’s platelet needs get met, there are many other children with the same need. Platelets have a very short shelf-life and must be transfused within five days of collection. I won’t lie to you, donating platelets takes a bit longer than just donating blood. But you don’t get to sit in the e-Chair (ultra-cool, comfy chair with easy access to: movies, games, internet browsing, and more) if you just donate blood. It takes about two hours to complete the platelet collection process, and part of this process is giving you, the donor, the rest of your blood back. This process allows you to feel much more normal shortly after your donation is complete.
If you are up to the challenge:
- Be at least 17 years old (there is no upper age limit)
- Weigh at least 110 lbs.
- Be in general good health
- Have not taken any aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications within 2 full days of donation
- If diabetic: No insulin (oral medications are acceptable)
- If asthmatic: No oral medications (Singulair is acceptable)
- Must be willing to allow approximately 2 hours for the entire donation process.
Then please schedule an appointment today for a time that is convenient for you. To do so, please call UCLA’s Blood and Platelet Center at 310-794-7217 and ask to make a platelet donation appointment. Please mention Dylan David as the patient you are donating for. The facility is located in Westwood Village (map here) and you can read more about them here.
Even if you do not do this for me, thank you for reading my plea for help.

Add Labs to Google Apps email account
I was so excited and thoroughly impressed with the ease and wealth of features that I received when I switched my domain over to Google Apps to serve all of my email.
After the initial shock of: “ZOMFG Look at all the sh*t I get for freakin’ FREE!!!!” I then noticed that I could not enable that awesome Gmail Theme that I came to love oh so much. I also learned that there were no Gmail Labs as well...
