The way marketers engage customers is changing rapidly. Every day seems to bring a new approach, and the digital world has transformed our communication almost beyond recognition. Yet amidst all this change, most companies haven't evolved the organizational structure of the marketing function in the past 40 years.
Marketers know their organizations need an overhaul, and CMOs are struggling with what the new org chart should look like. But what if the answers aren't in a new blueprint? This on-demand webinar by Harvard Business Review reveals results from one the most comprehensive marketing leadership studies ever undertaken, in an effort to understand what separates the strategies and structures of superior marketing organizations from the rest.
Watch this on-demand webinar, The Ultimate Marketing Machine, to learn what attributes are required for superior marketing performance today, and the nature of the organizations that have achieved it.

For injured UH player, every second counted in survival
D.J. Hayden had gone up for the same pass hundreds, if not thousands, of times and taken harder hits.
This one was different: It left Hayden on the ground, then on a knee as he attempted to catch his breath.
Seconds earlier, the senior cornerback for the University of Houston jumped to defend a pass during full-pads drills as the team prepared on Nov. 6 for its homecoming game against Tulsa. His arms stretched out, lifting up his shoulder pads just enough to expose his ribs and lungs. Trevon Stewart, a true freshman safety, sent Hayden crumpling to the ground with a knee to his sternum.
Standing nearby on the sideline, UH head athletics trainer Mike O'Shea immediately ran to Hayden, who complained of chest pains and struggled to breathe, signs of a possible fractured rib or punctured lung.
Flashback: Quick response credited in saving Hayden
O'Shea's first thought was to have Hayden, 22, make the short walk to the team's training room in the Athletics/Alumni Center. But the emergency cart parked nearby caught his eye.
"Something told me to put him on the cart and take him in," said O'Shea, who has 50 years of experience, including 17 at UH. "Something said, 'You looked at that cart for a reason.' "
That would be the first of many decisions by UH staffers, first responders and trauma surgeons that saved precious minutes - and ultimately Hayden's life. In the trauma world, it's called "The Golden Hour" - the critical time between when a serious injury occurs to when a patient receives life-saving medical care.
It was approximately 5 p.m. The clock was ticking for Hayden.
'Something is not right'
In a matter of minutes, Hayden arrives in the UH training room and takes off his shoulder pads and No. 2 jersey.
O'Shea wants Hayden to shower and go for X-rays but abruptly changes his mind when Hayden's condition appears to worsen. Hayden feels faint. He feels weak.
"I can't breathe," Hayden says. "I can't see."
"Something is not right," O'Shea says.
Haj Takashima, UH's assistant athletics trainer, calls 9-1-1 at 5:23 p.m., less than 15 minutes after Hayden is hurt.
Takashima calmly gives the dispatcher directions to the university and a brief description of Hayden's symptoms during the 2-minute, 37-second phone call. "Help is on the way," the dispatcher says.
The call comes in
EMS personnel Jason Anderson and Jeremy Smith get the call at Fire Station 25, on Scott Street a few blocks from the UH campus. So do Kevin Zigal and Robert Delgado, paramedics/firefighters at Fire Station 18, a mile-and-a-half from campus.
Both emergency vehicles arrive at the same time, taking a small access road between the university's baseball field and Athletics/Alumni Center before stopping in front of a side door.
Zigal and Delgado perform a quick assessment of Hayden, who is cold and pale, signs he is going into shock. Sweat is pouring off his body from head to toe.
They determine nothing can be done at the university, so Hayden quickly is taken out on a stretcher and put in the ambulance. He's conscious and alert, looking around to see what's going on.
Mikado Hinson, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes campus director, approaches the open doors at the back of the ambulance. He grabs Hayden's foot.
"Bro, we'll be praying for you," Hinson tells Hayden. "We'll be with you every step of the way. God has you where he needs you."
Hayden nods. Then the door closes.
Destination: Methodist Hospital
On the five-mile drive to the hospital, Hayden is in obvious pain and unable to get comfortable. He leans one way and the other. He wants to sit up and then lies back.
His blood pressure is extremely low, almost non-existent. It's a sign he's bleeding out. Paramedics have trouble establishing an IV in his arm.
In the back of the ambulance, Zigal is on a radio in constant communication with the Houston Fire Department's base station, which assesses situations and determines the best hospital destination based on a patient's condition.
Zigal updates the base station, which makes the decision to reroute Hayden.
Finding the family
Back on campus, Chris Pezman, UH's assistant athletics director for football operations, calls Hayden's mother, Tori, who is at her Galleria-area office. She does not answer her cellphone. Pezman next calls Hayden's uncle, Mike Clark, who is at home in Missouri City.
When Tori Hayden arrives back at her desk, she sees the missed call. The phone rings again. It's Clark, who tells her D.J. has been hurt in practice and is on the way to the hospital. Details remain sketchy.
Tori Hayden grabs her purse and rushes out the door. Outside the building, she removes her high-heels and races up five flights of stairs in the parking garage.
She frantically weaves through Highway 59 traffic on the way to the hospital.
Next stop: Texas Trauma Institute
At Memorial Hermann Texas Trauma Institute, a Level-1 trauma center rated one of the best in the world, chief resident Dr. Laura Kreiner is about to walk out the door for the end of her shift. Dr. Ron Albarado is in the hospital on a 24-hour shift when he gets a page. It reads: Code 3, the designation for an incoming patient in critical condition.
The information doctors receive from the ambulance is that Hayden has taken a hit to the chest. They initially believe it's a liver or spleen injury - serious but "fairly straightforward to take care of and operate," Albarado says.
It's 5:55 p.m. - roughly 45 minutes since the injury occurred - when Hayden is admitted to the hospital. The trauma team is waiting, with gear on, when Hayden arrives in Trauma Bay 6.
Hayden shows no external signs of injury. No broken bones. No visible bleeding.
In what amounts to a pit stop that takes less than five minutes, Hayden undergoes X-rays and an ultrasound, which show blood in his abdomen. A trauma team member gives Hayden blood to replace the large amount he already has lost.
A phone call is made to staff in the second-floor operating room, telling them Hayden is on the way.
A doctor approaches Clark, the first family member to arrive at the hospital, in a waiting room and asks for consent. They still don't know the extent of the injury and need to open Hayden's chest, similar to open-heart surgery.
"Do what you have to do," Clark says. "Just save him."
An elevator takes Hayden to the second-floor operating room. On the way, still alert, Hayden cracks a joke with one small request: "Please don't mess up my abs."
In surgery, Kreiner makes an incision that runs from just below Hayden's throat to the tip of his belly button. At that point, doctors get their first up-close look at the damage.
It isn't a liver injury.
It isn't a spleen injury.
It's worse.
The impact of the collision has torn the inferior vena cava, the main vein that carries blood from the lower half of the body to the heart.
Now with a better view, Albarado maintains temporary control of the bleeding with one finger during a critical seven-minute span. A second trauma surgeon, Dr. Phillip Adams, assists in the procedure.
"We have one shot at getting it right," Albarado says.
Albarado begins the delicate process of repairing the vein, which he describes as attempting to "suture pieces of wet toilet paper together." One misstep likely means instant death.
As a result of the injury, Hayden suffers a small break in his diaphragm. The break allows blood to deposit into his abdomen, buying Hayden a few extra minutes and ultimately saving his life. Without it, Hayden quickly bleeds to death and his heart stops.
To replace the blood he's lost, Hayden is given 23 units of blood products.
By the time Tori Hayden arrives, D.J. is in surgery. She waits, along with Clark, in a room down the hall. And begins to pray.
"It felt like a lifetime," she says. "It was like we were waiting forever."
Mom: 'This can't be happening'
The surgery lasts less than two hours. Afterward, Albarado ushers Tori, D.J.'s father, Derek, and Clark into a private area. He tells them the extent of the injury and that Hayden remains in critical condition. But he is alive.
Tori begins to feel faint and sits down.
"No, no this can't be happening," she says.
Down the hallway, O'Shea suggests the large group - UH players, coaches and support staff - huddle in prayer.
"No, we're going to get on our knees and pray," O'Shea says. "We're not going to stand up."
They all take a knee.
Hinson leads the prayer.
Around 1 a.m., Tori Hayden finally sees her son.
He's on a respirator to help his breathing. Hayden's eyes briefly open before shutting.
At his bedside, Tori is grateful her son will live.
"All I could do is thank Jesus," she says. "He could have died. I could have lost my son."
The aftermath
On Nov. 12, six days after the near-fatal injury, Hayden was discharged from the hospital.
From the car, he called UH head coach Tony Levine and asked if he could visit the team. Levine rescheduled the regular Monday afternoon meeting and told the team it would have a special guest.
Levine pushed Hayden, still weak from the injury, on a rolling chair to the back of the Carl Lewis Auditorium. He got up and, wearing a UH T-shirt and cap, walked down the aisle to the front. Teammates gave Hayden a standing ovation.
Hayden spoke for 15 minutes and reminded his teammates to take nothing for granted, that second chances are not guaranteed.
He was one of the lucky ones.
Invite: Hayden to attend next month's NFL scouting combine
Dr. Walter Lowe, the UH team physician, said the injury never had been documented in association with football and is mostly common in high-speed motor vehicle accidents. It has a 5 percent survival rate. Most people who suffer the injury never make it to the hospital.
"Another 5 to 10 minutes and he may not have made it," Albarado said. "Time runs out."
Hayden walked to a grease board and attempted to explain what happened. He drew a lopsided heart and squiggly line that represented the inferior vena cava.
"That's what broke," Hayden said as the room burst into laughter.
In the nearly three months since the injury, Hayden has been cleared to begin working out several times a week with fitness and conditioning guru Danny Arnold at Plex in Stafford.
Hayden has been invited to next month's NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis, which showcases the nation's top draft-eligible college players.
There is no doubt in Hayden's mind he will play football again someday.
"I'm just glad I'm still here," Hayden said.

Was eighteen year old reparations offender Amber Deloach a descendant of William DeLoach Jr. and ultimately of Michel DesLoges whose family, after arriving in America in about 1664 to escape France during the time that the Huguenots were suffering from religious intolerance, and often state sponsored abuse and imprisonment, appears to have used black slaves with the contemptible disregard many hope her family feels today at finding their so ill-gained, richly invested in St. Vincent's Academy and Islands High Schoo alumni daughter's charred remains disposed of like litter left street side near the Yamacraw Village Public Housing projects.
According to research provided by author and journalist Waldorf Caruthers, "It is likely that all persons in the United States with the surname of DeLoach, DeLoache, DeLoatch, or any of the other variant spellings, are descendants of Michel DesLoges."
"The original Slaves acquired by the the Deloach family were bequeathed to them," Caruthers says. "Citing them as owning slaves, over a century later, the Deloach family name appears on Censuses and in other historical documentation in Alabama and also, (here), Georgia (as cited in the JPG above), South Carolina and Tennessee. As a notable mention, Samuel Deloach Jr of Edgefield County is cited as owning seventy-five slaves. While research at this point finds no Deloach's owning slaves in Chatham County, David J. Deloach of Wayne County is listed as owning (at least 3) slaves."
"These no-good whites come over here all the time to buy drugs & black thug sex – pimping our souls out. Everybody in the hood was relieved and happy when we seen it was that car and that devil inside."

I am 43. I manage to dress ok for the office but I struggle with the baseball, soccer and hockey games. I feel like I always fall back on jeans and a tee with sneakers. Flip flops when it is warm. Like you said, bleachers are uncomfortable. The weather is also temperamental in the spring on the east coast. Freezing one day, scorching hot the next. I also worry about looking like I tried too hard or didn't try hard enough.
I am a total Sports Mom. My ten-year-old plays baseball and basketball; my 12-year-old takes kickboxing and mixed martial arts classes. We have some type of class or practice or game virtually every single day.
And I love it.
Getting dressed for all these kid sporting events can be tough, for a lot of reasons: The weather, the bleachers, the other parents. How do you know what's the right thing to wear to all those games and practices and classes?

White House to 'Make Sure' Syria Gives Up Chemical Arms
The White House said Sunday it would "make sure" the Syrian regime complies with an accord to give up its chemical arsenal, insisting the deal can still be salvaged despite implementation delays and missed deadlines.
"It's not falling apart, but we would like to see it proceed much more quickly than it is," White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough told CBS's "Face the Nation."
Mr. McDonough said the U.S. isn't dependent on Russia to bring Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime into compliance. Moscow is the regime's main arms supplier and key international backer.
"We're going to make sure that the Syrians live up to their obligations. They have an obligation to the international community to do exactly what they said they'd do," Mr. McDonough said.

If you're running Ubuntu 9.10 and want to install Ruby on Rails I've put together a quick tutorial for you. Not tremendously much has changed since the last tutorial for Jaunty Jackalope. Unicorn is out and while I think it's nifty, I'm going to wait a little while before playing with it. For now my money is still on Phusion Passenger as being the right tool for the job. If all that seems fine, let's get to the details.
Step 1: As usual, the first thing we'll want to do is make sure your version of Ubuntu is up to date.:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
If you see this warning it means we have a little more work to do.
perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
Let's go ahead and set your locale now. (I'm using en-US in this example.. feel free to substitute for your region)
sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 sudo /usr/sbin/update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Step 2: We'll be installing some software that needs to be built so we'll need to get packages required for compiling. With Ubuntu, you can type this single command and get everything you need:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Step 3: Once you've got the tools, it's time to install MySQL and Ruby. If you're using SQLite you may not need all this stuff. Otherwise, just copy and paste this command into your terminal if you're in a hurry. As of Karmic Koala, we're using MySQL 5.1:
sudo apt-get install ruby ri rdoc mysql-server libmysql-ruby ruby1.8-dev irb1.8 libdbd-mysql-perl libdbi-perl libmysql-ruby1.8 libmysqlclient15off libnet-daemon-perl libplrpc-perl libreadline-ruby1.8 libruby1.8 mysql-client-5.1 mysql-common mysql-server-5.1 rdoc1.8 ri1.8 ruby1.8 irb libopenssl-ruby libopenssl-ruby1.8 libhtml-template-perl mysql-server-core-5.1 libmysqlclient16 libreadline5 psmisc
If you hadn't previously installed MySQL you'll be asked to set a root password. You don't have to, of course (it will bug you no fewer than 3 times if you opt not to) but I strongly recommend it. You'll need this password when you populate your rails config/database.yml file so be sure not to forget it.
Step 4: Grab the latest ruby gems and install them. As always be sure to check rubyforge.org to make sure you're grabbing the latest one. As of this writing it's 1.3.5 but it never hurts to confirm.
wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/60718/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz tar xvzf rubygems-1.3.5.tgz cd rubygems-1.3.5 sudo ruby setup.rb
Once it's done you can remove the .tgz file and erase the rubygems-1.3.5 directory too.
Step 5: On the command line, type gem -v. if you get this message we need to make some symlinks:
The program 'gem' can be found in the following packages: * rubygems1.8 * rubygems1.9 Try: sudo apt-get install -bash: gem: command not found
Let's create those symlinks now:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gem1.8 /usr/local/bin/gem sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/local/bin/ruby sudo ln -s /usr/bin/rdoc1.8 /usr/local/bin/rdoc sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ri1.8 /usr/local/bin/ri sudo ln -s /usr/bin/irb1.8 /usr/local/bin/irb
Step 6: Install Ruby on Rails! You can leave off the –no-rdoc and –no-ri switches if you're on a machine with plenty of ram. But just in case you've got a more modest setup (say 256MB or less) I'd just use the following:
sudo gem install rails --no-rdoc --no-ri
If you're just doing local development then you are basically done. You may want to install additional gems. If you want to deploy Ruby on Rails onto a server then it's time to setup Nginx and Phusion.
Step 7: As I mentioned earlier, Unicorn may be the new hotness but I'm going to wait a while before I put my customers on that stack. The folks responsible for Phusion Passenger(Hongli Lai & Ninh Bui) are incredibly smart and I think they'll look at Unicorn and make some improvements to Phusion to eek out even more performance. The short of it is that I'm still a big believer in Phusion so I'm going to install it for production and recommend that you do too:
sudo apt-get install libc6 libpcre3 libpcre3-dev libpcrecpp0 libssl0.9.8 libssl-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev lsb-base
Step 8: We're going to create a directory for your application. In anticipation of Capistrano, let's put it in /var/www/myapp/current. Swap out the myapp with anything you like.
sudo mkdir -p /var/www/myapp/current
If you've got an existing Rails application, it doesn't hurt to populate that directory now. Just make sure that the root to the public directory is /var/www/myapp/current/public. Don't forget to chown it for www-data:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/myapp/current/
Step 9: Now it's time to install Phusion Passenger and let it do it's magic.
sudo gem install passenger sudo passenger-install-nginx-module
At this point you'll be greeted with two options. The first will allow Passenger to do all the work while the second, for advanced users, allows you to point Phusion to your pre-installed Nginx. We're going to make life easy on ourselves and choose option 1. I'd also recommend keeping the default path (/opt/nginx).
The Nginx configuration file (nginx.conf) file is in /opt/nginx/conf/ They've done you the favor of adding the lines you need to get going. Defining the configuration file is beyond the scope of this tutorial, but I've included a sample file which you can download. This file assumes your application is in /var/www/myapp/current.
Sample nginx.conf file for Ruby on Rails, Nginx, Phusion Passenger.
Step 10: Time to make some Nginx tweaks for Ubuntu/Debian. If you're used to running nginx as installed by Debian or Ubuntu then you might notice that you've lost the familiar way to start and stop nginx. Gone is /etc/init.d/nginx stop and /etc/init.d/nginx/start. To get it back, copy (or download) this into a file called nginx in /etc/init.d/ (as root)
#! /bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: nginx # Required-Start: $all # Required-Stop: $all # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: starts the nginx web server # Description: starts nginx using start-stop-daemon ### END INIT INFO PATH=/opt/nginx/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin DAEMON=/opt/nginx/sbin/nginx NAME=nginx DESC=nginx test -x $DAEMON || exit 0 # Include nginx defaults if available if [ -f /etc/default/nginx ] ; then . /etc/default/nginx fi set -e case "$1" in start) echo -n "Starting $DESC: " start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /opt/nginx/logs/$NAME.pid \ --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS echo "$NAME." ;; stop) echo -n "Stopping $DESC: " start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile /opt/nginx/logs/$NAME.pid \ --exec $DAEMON echo "$NAME." ;; restart|force-reload) echo -n "Restarting $DESC: " start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile \ /opt/nginx/logs/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON sleep 1 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile \ /opt/nginx/logs/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS echo "$NAME." ;; reload) echo -n "Reloading $DESC configuration: " start-stop-daemon --stop --signal HUP --quiet --pidfile /opt/nginx/logs/$NAME.pid \ --exec $DAEMON echo "$NAME." ;; *) N=/etc/init.d/$NAME echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload}" >&2 exit 1 ;; esac exit 0
Next, let's set the permissions and make nginx load on a reboot:
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/nginx sudo /usr/sbin/update-rc.d -f nginx defaults
Now you should be able to start and stop nginx using the command you're used to:
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start
Bonus steps In case it's not already installed, let's grab the perquisites and then install the mysql gem. This will improve performance on your webserver:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev sudo gem install mysql --no-rdoc --no-ri
You should also look into using a helper for deployment. I still use Capistrano but there are alternatives such as Vlad the Deployer, Puppet and others. I will also recommend that if you go with Capistrano that you check out the capistrano-ext gem which allows you to do multi-stage deployments.
Troubleshooting If things didn't go smoothly, here are some things to check:
1. There's an error log for nginx in /opt/nginx/logs/ Try looking to see if you get any hints there.
2. If you see a 403 forbidden error, make sure you have permissions set correctly. I'm running Nginx as www-data and I've set the group/user owners of my rails app to match using the chown -R www-data:www-data command. It doesn't hurt to confirm it.
3. Try running your rails app in development mode using the standard script/server. If it doesn't work there then it obviously won't work in production mode either
For help, you should check out the great railsforum or Mailing list front-end.

Since I launched my fund, I've gotten around 50 offers to work with me. For some reason, everyone wants to be a VC. Instead of responding, I decided to sit on them. The way I figure it, how someone approaches me is indicative of how they'd approach an entrepreneur. Since the best entrepreneurs are busy running their business and get pinged by VCs all the time, you're not going to wind up getting a deal if all you do is e-mail once, give up, and walk away.
So what happened? The "applicants" (not that I'm hiring) went 0 for 50. Not a single one of them followed up with even so much as a nudge to see if I saw their note. They mostly just sent resumes and cover letters once and that's it.
Think about it. I hand out money for a living and I, even more than most people, try to make contacting me easy. That combo is killer on my inbox. It's not that I don't want to respond. It's just that if you add up all the minutes in the day, there is just never enough time to get through it all...ever. Want to understand it better? Read this.
So, yeah, a little nudge and some tempered persistance would go a long way.
Given that, the lack of creativity and ingenuity around reaching an investor really astounds me. Take this #notapitch event. I set up an event at NYIT that is essentially just free, open feedback on ideas, prototypes, startups, etc. It doesn't have to count as an official pitch of any kind. It's more just to understand the kinds of things VCs are going to ask and want to see when you are ready to pitch. So you'd think it would be sold out, right? Nope. Plenty of room. (RSVP here...)
In fact, more people e-mailed me boring powerpoints in the last week than signed up to actually pitch in person.
The other day, someone Tweeted at me politely to look for the e-mail they sent me. I immediately searched for it and responded right away. That's an entrepreneur who is aware of who they are pitching. If you don't realize that there are numerous channels to reach out to me, then you're not paying attention. E-mail is still the best way to get a pitch through, but I'm surprised at how rarely people take advantage of the other channels to nudge. Hell, I even have a live chat up on the Brooklyn Bridge Ventures website.
There are a lot of ways to reach investors by being a little more creative--without being creepy. For example, there are a lot of investors that bike. I commute by bike, Fred Wilson bikes, as does Bryce Roberts. The most avid biker of them all (or at least the one with the most bikes) is probably Stu Ellman whose twitter handle is "bikenyc". It would probably be a lot easier to organize a ride with a few entrepreneurs and invite us along than to just e-mail a pitch.
It's all about paying attention. I remember this one time when I was working at my startup near the Shake Shack. Fred asked me and my co-founder if we wanted to get a burger with a few people. Then I hear my co-founder Alex groan "Oh, no... Fred just tweeted that he was headed to Shakeshack." We figured it was going to be a mobscene--yet, no one showed up... not a single entrepreneur. If I was trying to raise money from Fred and I was anywhere within a 40 minute radius of the Shakeshack (which is basically the whole city) I would have showed up. Yet, nobody. The same thing happens when I tweet out that I'm doing a group lunch somewhere. It's like all these entrepreneurs are two busy working on their powerpoints and pitches to just show up.
That's not to say you should follow me home and stand outside my house, but being a little bit creative about how to reach someone goes a long way.
Here are a few other simple, not creepy ways to get a VCs attention:
- Participate in conversations. Follow them on Twitter and comment intelligently and relevantly without being salesy. Make us want to click through and say "Wow, that was a smart comment, who is that?"
- Write a blog post about why the space your playing in is interesting or, even better, why you're doing it. Remember, it's not what you do but why you do it. (Awesome Ted talk) @ the investors you think will really get it.
- Be a leader in your community. I've gotten to know just about everybody who runs a Meetup in NYC b/c I attend a lot of them and have probably spoken at half of them. Community is a great platform (excuse) to engage people.
- Ask smart questions at events we speak at (as opposed to just bumrushing us after the panel to squeeze a pitch in).
- Lend a hand on things you believe in that we support. A really active anti-SOPA entrepreneur would have gotten Fred's attention. Last year, a designer I know did some work for a non-profit--one run by Neeru Khosla. If that designer ever wanted to pitch Vinod on a startup, I'm pretty sure she'd have a good "in".
Other tips for things that seem to work?
At the end of the day, keep in mind that this is a relationship business. People who take the time to build relationships can very easily get in front of VCs. Take Frank Denbow for example. I first met Frank through his responses to me on Twitter. Then he showed up to help out with the kayaking program I run. Then I played on a Zogsports football team I'm on. More just showing up to things I do, he's a huge community contributor, organizing startup weekends, hackathons, etc. And, on top of that, he introduces me to good folks--not entreprenuers necessarily--but just good people I should know. He's just an awesome guy being an awesome guy in close proximity. It's not that hard. If he was ever raising money for something, I'd be all over it.
It's really not that hard.

When I began to schedule my snowshoe classes for this winter I remember wondering if there would be any snow in February as the early winter months were pretty lean on snow.
The snow base is perfect right now. We just received another 8" of beautiful fluffy snow yesterday so the trails will be perfect.
Fortunately snowshoe classes begin this Sunday at Lake Maria State Park and will run from 1-3 PM for four weeks. I have 8 signed up and can take two more. If you are interested let me know.
I will again be coaching with MDRA this spring but instead of coaching in Edina I will be coaching in Maple Grove. I will really miss my Edina group but the commute from Big Lake to Edina became unbearable! The commute was taking me at the least 90 minutes, sometimes longer. Blech. I feel very fortunate that I am able to coach in Maple Grove, a mere 30 miles away from home.
Last week I met with the Maple Grove coaches and Heidi Miler (yeah, MILER) of MDRA to hammer out the schedule of events. I'm so excited! It will be lots of fun and is such a great opportunity to give back to the sport. Beginning runners are such a fun group to coach. If you are interested in joining our group or the Edina group see the MDRA website for further information at runmdra.org
Oh, and Heidi is a professional in the sport of triathlon and ran the Frigid 5 in about half of my time. Sweet! I didn't try to catch her..or Kelly Keeler for that matter. But hey, coming in after these two girls as fourth age group is pretty good company to keep.
As long as I am on the subject of coaching I must congratulate my online clients who were running Rocky Raccoon last week: Mike ran a PR at the 100 mile distance! He shaved HOURS off of his prior RR time. Woohoo and Melissa and John, both of which finished their FIRST 50's in perfect form. Way to go! You know how excited I am for each of you. Rest up, recover and then we are off to tackle the next one!

what is the MDRA I live in Maple grove and need to get in shape to Climb Kilamjario Africa 19, 400 feet in jan 2011
The say I need to run at least and hour to be in condition. I'm not a runner
This is my husbands idea of a vacation
forget it, I just googles MDRA and it is distance running, really not what I'm looking for. I'm just looking to build up some stamina. And be able to work through the altitude.
thanks anyway
we enjoy reading your blog
I need something like from couch to 5K

Conservation and Environment in Peru: Monthly Updates
Monthly Update - January 2004
January heralds the start of another busy year in the Peruvian Amazon not least with annual increase in the number of volunteers coinciding with the start of our high season. Morale is high and the hard work of 2003 needs to be continued with the existing projects and, naturally, the development of new ideas. I have had meetings with the new directors of INRENA with respect to our reserve application and the new administration appears more positive and cooperative then the old one. The director has promised to chase the proposal through the mountains of paperwork so the official designation of "La Reserva Ecologica Taricaya" would appear to finally be materialising after nearly a year sparring with the complex Peruvian legal system. The mahogany project has also inspired great interest in various local organisations and people have been phoning us or requesting meetings. The impact has already been beyond our initial expectations and there can only be positive repercussions for our other projects. The hardest part of being a relatively new initiative is to establish credibility for the work we are doing so once we are recognised as a serious organisation committed to our projects then acceptance of our good intentions becomes easier. Such acceptance is now taking form with both the locals and the regional authorities and we are confident that 2004 will see major breakthroughs with our projects.
At the centre itself life has also been exciting. The Anaconda Colpa has provided some great sightings this month with volunteers seeing a large herd of over thirty white-lipped peccaries and a female tapir with her young calf. Both sightings are very encouraging as we had seen many tracks in December. These large mammals are good indicator species as they are usually the first to be hunted in any given area and so their presence signifies progress with our work to restore animal confidence and encourage them back into our area. The trails and platforms have also seen an increase in activity associated with the start of the rainy season. Most animals are now with young and the jungle is teeming with life. Last year we released a pair of saddle-back tamarins and they have returned to the centre often this month accompanied by two offspring. It is obviously a great pleasure to see them after a long absence and to see that they are thriving in the wild. In January we received a young S. American Coati into our animal release program and he is already finding his way around the centre jumping on unsuspecting victims. The Brazilian Tapir, Rosa, donated in December is gaining weight and is recovering well after we received her with serious health problems.
Volunteers have been involved in several projects this month including a new initiative involving the collection and identification of seeds around our trail system. The idea is to produce a map with the distribution of the flowering trees and their seasonality so we can identify the zones providing food to the fauna at any given time of year. This will also help us identify key species of tree that we will be able to cultivate in nurseries for re-introduction into areas where they have been removed. We already have seed nurseries of "shihuahuaco" (ironwood tree), "chimbillo", and "ubos" which we will transplant later in the year to areas of low density for each given type.
The floods of last year meant that the life span of our bridges was reduced due to advanced rotting and volunteers in January helped repair all the bridges on our trail system. This was hard work due to the heavy conditions but now all the trails are once again accessible. The investigation centre along with the medicinal garden is now nearing completion. The majority of the plants have been identified and clearly marked. This information is now being processed and presented in the investigation centre. Much information is already on display but there is always more to discover and present. The goal is to install terrariums in the centre also. This will provide temporary accommodation for frogs, toads, lizards, snakes etc.. whilst they are being logged and photographed for our study of the herpetology of the Taricaya area. We are also starting to work with an American couple who export ornamental fish back to the States. They concentrate on ground feeding fish locally known as "carachamas" amongst others. These fish are very common in creeks and slow streams and their philosophy is very similar to ours. Fishing for these species is a low impact activity as these species abound in the area. We have fished our creek at various points and found many of the species with export value. If locals can be taught which animals are valuable then they can supplement their income when it becomes necessary simply by spending a few hours fishing the streams and creeks nearby. The investigation centre will be a perfect place to put some tanks with a few examples of each species so people can come and learn which species are valuable. If the locals are fishing by hand then they are not performing more destructive activities such as logging or hunting.
In January we bought the materials necessary for the next stage of the canopy walkway. February will see us hanging by harnesses and starting to place the tailor-made panels along the already attached cables. We will also travel to Laberinto again to bring more bamboo as the first crop is growing very well around the pilot farm. These activities in addition to ones already functioning will keep us all busy in February and for a good time to come!!!

Zbigniew Rebzda
Maturity Number 4
Zbigniew Rebzda was a male celebrity.
He was born on Sunday October 25th 1942, in Wilkucie, Poland,.
While learning the value of hard work, discipline, and organization in his early years, as he grows older Zbigniew Rebzda will contribute to things that are destined to last. In his later years he will have built things of lasting value. Zbigniew may have some health issues to which he will apply his organizational skills to lessen their effect on him.
His maturity will find Rebzda increasingly practical, organized, and far more down to earth. He will be capable of putting his ideas into concrete form. Zbigniew's latter days promise to be a time of accomplishment and activity.
Zbigniew Rebzda becomes more focused and goal-oriented and less willing to discard details and cut corners. There is little interest in a quiet retirement. He is too involved in seeing his plans and efforts come to life.
His family and friends will profit from Rebzda's Maturity Number 4 because of his increasingly helpful and reliable nature.
However, Zbigniew Rebzda must guard against becoming rigid, narrow minded, and opinionated, especially if already several fours are found in his numerological chart. If Zbigniew has only one or two of them, he will benefit by his increased understanding of systems, organization, and the rewards of a methodical approach to life.
You and Zbigniew
About Zbigniew's Maturity number
Zbigniew Rebzda's Maturity number indicates an underlying wish or desire that gradually surfaces around age thirty to thirty-five. This underlying goal begins to emerge as Zbigniew gains a better understanding of himself.
With self-knowledge comes a greater awareness of who Rebzda is, what his true goals in life are, and what direction he wants to set for his life.
