Julie was stunned to discover that she had walked away with over 15k. Like many of our players, she didn't expect to scoop such a big prize. She comments "It's been a shock. I didn't expect it at all, such a great surprise. I will not be spending it all, it will sit in the bank for a bit and get all the bits and bobs around paid for. I will surely treat myself and the family!"

In Insert Coin, we look at an exciting new tech project that requires funding before it can hit production. If you'd like to pitch a project, please send us a tip with "Insert Coin" as the subject line. While the design hasn't changed much since we spied Instaprint precisely a year ago, the creators behind the Instagram-connected photo printers are now looking for cash -- your cash. Pitched as an event or party service, you can assign specific tags or locations to the printer, hopefully assuring all those instant snaps have at least a passing connection to whoever or whatever paid for all that photo paper. The technology is all a bit Polaroid, as the printers themselves are ink-free Zink types, limited only by however many blank sheets you have inside. Instaprint has set itself the heady target $500,000, with $260,000 of that sum going towards existing hardware and future production. The $399 investment option will net you your very own InstaPrint system, while sepia-tinted image obsessives can offer up 1,449 for the pro kit, containing one WiFi hub printer, three more connectable InstaPrint devices and 80 sheets of inkless paper for your premier cat photo collection/ food gallery get-together. See how it all works right after the break. Update: With 22 days to go, last week's Insert Coin star, the Unruly housing for GoPro cameras, has assembled $16,255 of its $25,000 target. There's still time to make the adventure camera add-on a commercial reality -- donate over $128 and you'll nab one of the first multi-mount frames off its production line.

BREAKFAST uses crowd-funding to develop the device for consumer use NEW YORK - March 2, 2012 - Today BREAKFAST launched Instaprint on Kickstarter. Instaprint is a location-based photo booth that turns Instagrams into physical prints. Set the device to listen for a specic hashtag and/or location and watch as it prints out all Instagrams with those tags, comments and all. Breakfast released a few prototypes of Instaprint last year and they have since been rented for use at various large-scale events - from store openings to product launches, even nding their way to The Grammys and Lady Gaga concerts at Madison Square Garden. Now Breakfast wants to create a consumer version of Instaprint that can be used anywhere: weddings, bars, restaurants, retail stores, large and small events, ofces, and even just to have on your wall at home. The funding raised on Kickstarter will allow BREAKFAST to rene the existing Instaprint prototype into a consumer-ready device. Supporters of the project can pre-order a Home Kit of one Instaprint for $399. For higher volume printing, multiple Instaprints can be daisy-chained together. Kits with two, three and four Instaprints are available for $749, $1049 and $1,449, respectively. For anyone that contributes without pre-ordering a device, collages of Instaprint prints are also available as a reward. If the Kickstarter project is successfully funded, the Instaprint kits will ship in early Fall 2012. Throughout the Kickstarter campaign, Breakfast will stream a live "try-it-out" feed of Instaprint printing people's Instagrams from around the world. Anyone that posts an Instagram and tags it with #instaprint can visit the Instaprint page on Kickstarter or instaprint.me to watch as their photo is printed

Let the fight begin ... Mark Bouris and Jeff Fenech. Illustration: John Shakespeare

Pretty-faced celebrity entrepreneur Mark Bouris might not look so photogenic in June. The Yellow Brick Road founder has agreed to take on the Marrickville Mauler and three-weight former world champion Jeff Fenech in the boxing ring.

''It may be a way to make some money. Mark Bouris may pay me not to hurt him,'' Fenech told CBD about the bout, which will raise money for the Nick Moore-chaired Police Boys' Club of NSW (aka PCYC).

The Punchbowl-raised Bouris better start practising his ducking skills. The 47-year-old Fenech has not trained this hard for years.

''I have lost 13 kilograms in four weeks,'' said Fenech, who has dropped down to 76.5 kilograms. ''I feel good, ya know.

''Mark Bouris better be a wizard or he'll be in trouble.''

But Fenech's intense training program is not just about fitness.

''If I want to take my shirt off in the ring I want to look good. I still have a bit of an ego, so I don't want to look like an old fat thing.''

Bouris agreed to enter the event only after being pestered by the Inner Metro PCYC Sergeant Jim Duignan, who he met at the Woolloomooloo PCYC club where he sometimes trains.

I cannot help but have a soft spot in my heart for Portland, if only for the fact that on the week my wife and I visited, the Give A Shit Club was holding its "mostly monthly" forum. In it, participants were encouraged to do "a little bit of drinking and a whole lot of talking about local and national issues."

Of Portland's nature, it's all there in the club's title:

The wry but earnest call to activism; the fine line trod between seriousness and self-satire; the slacker dynamic fuelled by local microbreweries and artisanal distilleries. It's at once twee yet not, fun but adult. Of the three Cascadia sisters - the other siblings being us and Seattle - Portland is the most amiable and adventurous. She'd be the older sister willing to try anything, the first one in the water skinny-dipping.

Consider for example, our hotel: We stayed downtown at the Ace, a restored - but not overly restored - hotel originally built in 1912. There is nothing like it in Vancouver, which is a pity. There easily could be.

It's Flophouse Chic, with claw-foot tubs in the bathrooms, double-height ceilings, original tiled lobby (complete with coin-operated photo booth), and turn-of-the-century oak flooring in the hallways and rooms. The old is set off by the hipsterish new: large-screen TVs, high-end toiletries and bedding, sleek minimalist furnishings, original wall murals in each room (above our bed was an American eagle with the inscription Love Thy Neighbor), and - in a nod to the vibrant local music scene - turntables that came with an eclectic supply of LPs. (Ours ranged from the newest Fleet Foxes LP to The Best of Caruso.) Even the room's mini-bars spoke Portlandese: It came stocked with Glee gum, Boy-lan lemon seltzer and banana bread powerbars. Sometimes I suspect Portland is in on its own joke.

Why would a Vancouverite go to Portland?

It does serendipity so much better than us. Some of this is due to a more relaxed licensing environment - getting a liquor or business licence is vastly easier than in B.C. But more than that, Portland is a showcase of the American genius for experimentation. The city's unofficial motto, and favoured bumper sticker, is Keep Portland Weird. It's that self-satire again, but a call to arms, too.

Case in point:

While we were there, the big indie rock band The Shins, who call Portland home, gave a 1 p.m. children's concert at the Kennedy School. The show was part of the charming You Who! concert series, co-founded by Chris Funk of the Decemberists, Portland's other big indie band.

The shows are split up into a half-hour of variety entertainment - sin-galongs, cartoons, puppetry, "inter-active dance get-downs," to quote the program - followed by a half-hour rock show.

Pete McMartin: Portland, Vancouver's bolder sister

A coin-flip tie-breaker might have done Lawrence Highs boys basketball team a bit of a favor.

The Lions (13-7) earned the No. 4 seed in their Class 6A sub-state tournament, but there was a tie for the No. 5 seed between Gardner-Edgerton (12-8) and Olathe East (12-8).

Saturday morning, a flip of a coin decided Lawrences fate. LHS will face No. 5 O-East, a familiar Sunflower League foe, instead of GEHS, out of the Eastern Kansas League, which received the No. 6 seed.

Lawrence coach Mike Lewis said he likes the match-up awaiting his team at 7 tonight at LHS.

Its nice that we know what were getting into, Lewis said. With Gardner, it wouldve been a little bit more of a guessing game to a certain extent.

LHS won at Olathe East, 51-41, on Feb. 17. Lions senior guard Anthony Buffalomeat said familiarity with the Hawks will be just part of the equation.

Weve got confidence, beating them the first time, but we have a lot of things we need to work on for (tonight), so we cant take them lightly at all, Buffalomeat said.

While executing against O-Easts 3-2 zone, which LHS had trouble doing in the first quarter in the teams previous meeting before finishing the game with seven three-pointers, is one concern, there is also the question of KJ Pritchards availability. The 6-foot-5 Lawrence senior guard severely sprained his right ankle a few hours before the Lions Friday victory over Free State at LHS.

Lewis said the coaching staff planned for the sub-state opener anticipating a worst-case scenario of Pritchard sitting out. Whether he ends up playing will be a game-day decision, likely hours before tipoff.

While the Lions managed a 38-36 victory without Pritchard on Friday and now have some experience playing without their leading scorer, Buffalomeat said it would be a blow to try that again versus O-East.
