And Like That…..He Was Gone
Mark Spector had a very interesting article up in the last sports cycle about the future of Steve Tambellini and Tom Renney. Today I spoke to various Oiler fans and observers and can say with authority this is once again a house divided. Some blame Steve Tambellini, others blame Tom Renney.
What is fair? Who should go and who should stay?
Steve Tambellini has been on the job since July 31, 2008. This was after the drafting of Sam Gagner and Jordan Eberle. His first trade of note came in January of 2009: Mathieu Garon for G Dany Sabourin, R Ryan Stone and the 4th rd pick in 2011 that became Tobias Rieder.
He fired Craig MacTavish, hired and fired Pat Quinn and hired Tom Renney. He traded for Dany Heatley but it didn't take, he signed Nikolai Khabibulin to a long gone contract and he traded Dustin Penner for Colten Teubert and Oscar Klefbom. Tambellini didn't trade Sheldon Souray but he did send him to Hershey. He traded Kyle Brodziak and walked Marc Pouliot. Rob Schremp left via waivers.
Steve Tambellini has watched over a strong amateur procurement department and on his watch the Oilers have drafted Magnus Paajarvi, Taylor Hall and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins with their first round picks. Tambellini's time as Oilers GM has seen the minor league Barons blossom and that team appears to be prospect rich (you never know).
Steve Tambellini signed Cam Barker as a strong option for the defense.
Tom Renney knew real NHL success before coming to Edmonton. He was coach of a solid to spectacular NY Ranger team that wom a couple of playoff series. He coached legends like Alex Mogilny, Esa Tikkanen, Pavel Bure, Markus Naslund, Trevor Linden, Jaromir Jagr, Brendan Shanahan and that goalie Henrik Lundqvist (who he should have brought here with him).
So far Renney has been a mentor and teacher, with a little line matching thrown in this season and of course he's used TOI as a hammer. I don't think there are three things Tom Renney has done that are so far out of normal that the average fan would notice. However, he has:
been unable to find a spot for Magnus Paajarvi, heretofore thought of as a part of the future
been unable to find a spot for the entirely useful Linus Omark (although injury has played a part here)
shown a strong preference for Anton Lander despite a lack of evidence that the young man is performing at a high level in his current role.
been unable to hold together a porous defense with binder twine and old lace.
been unable to find a way to work Devan Dubnyk effectively into the lineup.
On the other hand they enjoyed an 8-2-2 start, he stood by the Russian and refused to flush Petrell and the special teams are wonderful compared to the past. He doesn't have the horses, but the Oilers are improved in GF-GA season over season (193-269 -76 a year ago and 112-121 -9 this season).
What do I think? I think the Oilers will shuffle things over the summer. Tom Renney stays, Stu MacGregor gains more power over the draft and Steve Tambellini devotes time to the AHL, overseeing Mike Sillinger's development efforts and the the pro scouting department. Kevin Lowe remains in the current job and they bring someone in to represent as GM. The Oilers add to the think tank just as Detroit did with Ken Holland, Jim Devellano, Jim Nill and others.
Who is the next Oilers GM? I don't know, but damned if Woodguy didn't bring up an interesting name over coffee today. What do you think the Oilers will do this year in the front office?

Cloudera is embracing the open-core software model for Cloudera Enterprise, its latest distribution of tools and services for the Apache Hadoop project.
Cloudera and Quest software are partnering to provide connectivity between Oracle and Hadoop.
Hadoop's community continues to grow, which is great news for Cloudera, the company behind the industry's first commercial distribution of Hadoop.
Cloudera raises another $6 million to further its Hadoop commercialization efforts.
The debate about the market for private cloud infrastructure finally has an objective test case: the choice between commercial Hadoop implementations from Cloudera and Amazon.com.
The company releases its first commercial business-friendly distribution of cloud platform Hadoop, the engine that powers Google. It will make the enterprise digestible by the Web.
Cloudera is balancing the Hadoop community with the company's efforts to monetize an open-source project.
Web giant adds patents related to software used to manage data centers to the patent collection it's making freely available to anyone, without fear of legal repercussion.
Hortonworks CEO talks about the origin of Hadoop and how his company intends to monetize the open-source, big data standout.

I think my favorite movie just may be "Dazed and Confused", no joke. I remember watching it on VHS in my room all throughout high school and memorizing every single word. I often think I was born in the wrong decade. Almost everyday I wish I was born just 10 years earlier then I really could have revelled in the 80s and 90s like I wish. I am however very happy with growing up in the age just before technology really took over.
This movie has the most ridiculously amazing cast from the '90s. Even though the film is about the last day of high school in '76, it was released and filmed in '93 so it makes it into the throwback category for me. Join the stoners and the hippies in one wild ride of a night they will never forget. Wooderson, played by Matthew McConaughey was probably the definition of the older sleazy guy who hangs around the high school kids but man, those tight jeans and that hair…swoon. I think I had a crush on every guy in this movie for their utter cool factor. I also wanted to be Jodi, Mitch's sister. And every other girl for that matter. Please whatever you do if you haven't seen this movie, play hooky from school and call out sick from work cause it's seriously one of the best movies ever made.
You're welcome.

The North Dakota State women's basketball team (3-7) dropped an 88-83 contest to rival North Dakota (4-3) Saturday, Dec. 14, inside the Betty Engelstad Center in Grand Forks.
The Bison led by two at halftime, 43-41, but couldn't maintain the lead in the final minutes of the second half. UND was able to use an 11-2 run in the final 2:05 of the half to claim the 88-83 victory.
NDSU was led in scoring by Marena Whittle with 23 points on 5-of-10 shooting. Four other Bison reached double figures. Holly Johnson recorded 17 points while Miki Stephenson had 13 and Kahla Becken tallied 11. Brooke LeMar scored 10 points, respectively, to round out the double figure scoring.
UND was paced by Madi Buck with a game-high 37 points.
The Bison were 33-for-69 from the field for 48 percent but just 8-for-20 (40 percent) from three. NDSU only attempted 10 free throws during the game, making nine of them.
North Dakota was 30-for-66 (46 percent) from the field and 8-for-16 (50 percent) from beyond the arc. UND took 24 free throws, converting 20 of them for 83 percent.
NDSU was out-rebounded by UND, 38-36.
With the loss, the Bison drop to 3-7 overall while UND improves to 4-3.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Medivation as a sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its feeble growth in its earnings per share, deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity, weak operating cash flow and generally high debt management risk. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- MEDIVATION INC has experienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. Stable earnings per share over the past year indicate the company has managed its earnings and share float. We anticipate this stability to falter in the coming year and, in turn, the company to deliver lower earnings per share than prior full year. During the past fiscal year, MEDIVATION INC reported poor results of -$0.56 versus -$0.56 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 28.6% in earnings (-$0.72 versus -$0.56).
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Biotechnology industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 193.4% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from -$4.54 million to -$13.31 million.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Biotechnology industry and the overall market, MEDIVATION INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to -$4.50 million or 1531.15% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.
- The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 3.40 and currently higher than the industry average, implying increased risk associated with the management of debt levels within the company. Despite the company's weak debt-to-equity ratio, the company has managed to keep a very strong quick ratio of 3.69, which shows the ability to cover short-term cash needs.

The number of homicides in Richmond this year stands at 40, so far, marking an increase over 2011. Detectives are still looking for killers in 14 of the deaths.
The flashing blue lights illuminating the night and the crime scene tape blocking off the streets never get easier to see for Richmond residents. This year, they've seen them 40 times. There were 37 homicides in 2011. Many hope the number doesn't rise again, instead of meeting 2010's stat of 41 killings.
Many of the 14 cases still open come from the deadliest month in the city since 2005. Eleven people were killed in September; five killers are still on the loose.
One case drawing a lot of attention from police and the public is the death of Paresh Patel. The medical examiner confirmed recently the gas station owner was shot multiple times in the head. The investigation spans two jurisdictions and involves Richmond, Chesterfield and the FBI.
Other families have been looking for answers for almost a year. 21-year-old De'Shawn Mayo was 2012's first victim. He was found shot to death in the street on January 7th. Still, police have not arrested a suspect.
"I forgive you," his mother Cassandra Mayo said. "Just please come forward. Maybe it was an accident. I don't' know what it was. I forgive you. But please don't make me suffer any more than what I'm already suffering."
Many families of murder victims have gotten some closure this year. If you look at the numbers the other way around, police say they've cleared more than 60 percent of the cases.
There was another fatal shooting last week, but police tell us that will not add to the overall number, because it has not been ruled a homicide.
If you have any information in these murders, call Crime Stoppers at 780-1000.

Here we are. 60 games, 13 buzzer beaters*, 6 turned ankles, 1 horrible broken leg, and 3 games left. Our leaders - Lucas "The Canadian" Timmons and Brian "Dos Equis" Combs - are battling head-to-head, both poised for fame beyond their wildest dreams. One will take home the prize, and the other will be the first place loser. So who's it going to be? We caught up with the two of them and were surprised to read their snarling attacks on each's character. This is gettin' serious.
* Writer fully acknowledges this is a total guess
S&H: Were you aware that after 60 intense NCAA games YOU and this other person are in the lead headed into the Final 4 and on to $1000 in S&H merchandise?
Dos Equis: Yes. Well aware. Trey Burke and Wichita State deserve the credit, though. Thanks, guys!
The Canadian: I've been following the contest all along. If Michigan would have lost to Kansas like they were supposed to you'd be interviewing me as the winner right now. The entire state of Michigan is now dead to me.
S&H: When compared to your tie-mate, what about this dude makes you angry?
Dos Equis: That he picked a tie breaker. In an urge of panic to transcribe my picks from my hard-copy bracket to the computer before the deadline, I neglected to punch in the game score for the tie breaker. And wouldn't you know it, he chose the exact score I would have . . .
The Canadian: The fact he had Michigan going into the final four. What is this, 1991? Here's hoping the ghost of C-Webb calls another timeout.
S&H: Why are YOU better than your tie-mate, just all around?
Dos Equis: We're both '80s babies. Nothin' but love, bro!
The Canadian: I'm a Canadian who's tied for winning a sports thing that has nothing to do with hockey.
S&H: They say the final stretch is about heart. What's yours all about?
Dos Equis: A quicker first step and superior leaping ability.
The Canadian: My final stretch is about making sure my legs don't cramp up while I'm asleep. Unless you were referring to heart, in which case it's about 250 grams and the size of my fist.
S&H: If this was some basketball Mortal Kombat death match between you two, who would you choose as your player, and what would be your finishing move (has to be related to basketball)?
Dos Equis: The Pickle Roll!
The Canadian: Charles Barkely, the round mound of rebound. My final move? The 'shut up and jam'.

Tweaking your WiFi configuration for maximum throughput sometimes have adverse side-effects, we have already seen how changing your WiFi channels can create problems with non-standard or incompatible WiFi cards.
Having customized your WiFi config can also create strange problems like WiFi being visible and connectable but with limited functionality and no web-browsing. As evident from the screenshots on the right and below my iMac running Mac OS X 10.8.2 is having issue communicating with my router, after researching over the internet reading numerous forums and help articles I finally figured out the solution experimenting with my router config.
We have covered the solution to fix White Cydia icon after jailbreaking issue earlier, but I encountered a different transparent/invisible app icons issue after jailbreaking my friends Apple iPhone 4 using redsn0w. After trying various options I finally figured out the solution as shown below.
The "There's An App For That" tagline once again proved to be very much correct, since we now have a free app which allows Apple iOS users to share their earphones with anyone nearby while each listening to different tracks at the same time. Splitr gives users two independent music players, each earbud (left and right) can not only stream two different music files but also allows independent volume controls. The application interface is as simple as it can get, with all controls splitted on the main screen for quick access as shown below.
While users can easily install and use multiple operating-systems on Raspberry Pi using BerryBoot, the beauty of an removable media card as operating-system loader is the simple plug-n-boot ease of use. The official Debian Linux port is the most widely used and supported distribution for Raspberry Pi, but specialized OS like RasPlex, Xbian and Raspbmc are also available for download with more and more Linux distributions getting ported for the platform by the developer community. Adding another excellent addition to the ever growing list of dedicated, RPi optimized builds of various Linux distributions; Fedora joined the club with release of Pidora - a Fedora Remix optimized build for the Raspberry Pi computer.
Pidora is an RPi optimized build of Fedora (Fedora Remix) featuring software packages from the Fedora Project compiled specifically for the ARMv6 architecture for use on the Raspberry Pi. Unique features of this build are Graphical firstboot configuration (with additional modules specifically made for the Raspberry Pi), Compact initial image size with auto-resize for maximum storage afterwards, unique feature allowing IP address information readable over speakers and flashed with the LED light for true headless mode on setups lacking a monitor or display, easy package management using Yum, included support for programming languages (like C, Python, & Perl) and libraries capable of supporting external hardware such as motors and robotics (via GPIO, I2C, SPI) out-of-the-box.
Apart from the illegitimate use of hacking someones else's saved password, unmasking hidden password's can be really useful in situations where users have forgotten there passwords saved in web-browser autofill settings. User's can now enjoy this functionality easily by installing the free, Google Chrome extension "Show Password on Focus" which as the name suggests unveils any password hidden behind bullet mask by simply clicking on that field.
We have shared tips to send free text messages from web to mobile phones worldover, what if you want to receive text messages annoymousely without revealing your original phone number.
If you are thinking what can be the use of receiving text messages to numbers you don't own, the answer could be to safeguard your identity when dealing with strangers, verifying accounts without revealing original phone number (like WhatApp and Viber), account verification for geo-restricted content like SMS text sent only to USA numbers etc.
We have seen how iTunes cryptic numeric error codes can be a huge pain to understand and solve. Imagine the confusion and frustration when an application clearly shows the error and it's solution but refuses to work even after the remedy, while WhatsApp for PC is definetly a good idea using it on mobile platform is the intended usage. I recently came across an strange error on my friends WhatsApp install on an Google Android tablet where it refused to launch showing "Your phone date is inaccurate! Adjust your clock and try again." error, strangely the date and time settings were accurate and even network fetched clock sync did not make WhatsApp buzz.
Experts-Exchange.com is no longer the leading website to get answers for your queries but it still gets shown in Google results when hunting for solution to many problems. We have shared the hidden link trick to get free experts-exchnage account without any credit-card earlier, however that trick is now blocked and users can only signup for a 30 day trial which requires a valid credit-card or Paypal account to register.
Users who already have free accounts are now shown the blockade as below with limited free credits to spend and view the answer. Luckily users can still get access to the answers for free, using the EXCLUSIVE experts-exchnage.com content unlocker posted below following the instructions.
Kali Linux the new version of popular advanced penetration testing and security auditing Linux distribution Backtrack is now available as an ready to flash official image for Raspberry Pi. The convergence of portable mini computing power of Raspberry Pi and 300+ open-source penetration testing tools provided by Kali Linux makes them a killer combination. We have already seen how raspi-config utility proves to be a must have tool for essential tweaks to Raspberry Pi, sadly installing and using the same on Kali Linux requires some extra bit of efforts as shown ahead.

Three Companies With Extraordinary CEOs
Andrés is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
One of the most exciting aspects of investing in the stock market is that it provides access to all kind of opportunities; you can have your money invested in truly amazing companies among all kind of industries and from different parts of the world. Just as important, you can choose among many of the best CEOs on the planet to manage your invested capital over time.
Think about it for second -- buying shares of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK-A) (NYSE: BRK-B) allows you to have your capital managed by Warren Buffett himself, arguably the best capital allocator alive. Buffett has compounded Berkshire´s capital at almost 20% annually from 1965 to 2011, more than double the 9% delivered by the S&P 500 index over the same time.
The Oracle of Omaha has almost all his net worth invested in Berkshire, aligning the interests of shareholders with his own interests in an indisputable way. Buffett won't be alive forever, but he is actively taking care of the transition to ensure that the company will remain in good hands.
Buffett's three main jobs--chairman, chief executive, and chief investment officer-- will be handled by different persons: one chairman, likely to be his son, Howard Buffett; one CEO who has been identified but not yet revealed; and a team of investment managers of which Todd Combs and Ted Weschler are expected to be an important part.
It wouldn't be reasonable, or even fair, to expect from his successors the same kind of extraordinary genius Buffett has shown over the decades. But the Oracle of Omaha has a good eye for picking capable and honest business managers, and Berkshire has a long-standing culture of stewardship. This should allow investors in the company to sleep soundly at night when it comes to thinking about Buffett´s succession at Berkshire.
It's nice to have the founder of the company pulling the ropes; when someone has invested a big portion of his life building a business, we can be comfortable that he understands the company, its culture and the industry in which it operates. Besides, CEOs who are also founders are more prone to having an emotional connection with the firm, basing their decisions on the long term growth and wellbeing of the company, as opposed to quarter to quarter profit numbers.
Jeff Bezos of Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is another great example. Bezos has always applied a long term mentality to business management and capital allocation decisions, investing heavily to push Amazon into several business lines with big disruptive potential like cloud computing, even if it means lower profit margins in the middle and short term. Amazon is one of the most innovative companies in the world, and the company´s CEO is a big factor behind that.
Bezos has been a great asset for Amazon shareholders: over the past six years, he has earned an average of $1.4 million in total compensation, most of which is the company's cost of security provided to him (he takes a $81,840 in annual salary and hasn't had a raise since 1998). Since he took his company public in May 1997, Bezos has delivered an annual 36% return to shareholders, which is significantly better than the 5% annual return for the S&P 500 over that period.
Howard Schultz is the barista to the world; he founded Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) in the 80´s and built a coffee empire from a single coffee store in Seattle, practically inventing a whole new product category. If that weren´t enough, in 2008 he returned to the company after an eight year pause to restructure it, reinvigorating the brand, closing unprofitable locations, launching new products and making it stronger than ever.
2008-2009 was a challenging period for Starbucks. The company had expanded inefficiently and people were feeling the pain from the recession, so profitability was being hurt. At the same time, McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) was aggressively growing in the coffee business, capitalizing the enormous value of its real estate assets and undercutting Starbucks in price, an important variable during a recession.
McDonald´s is a formidable competitor; it has an unparalleled geographical presence, a worldwide recognized brand and strong economies of scale due to its size advantage. In fact, entering the coffee business was a very profitable decision for the fast food leader, and the company is still betting on growth via its McCafé stores on a global scale.
But that hasn´t really hurt Starbucks much. There is much more than coffee going on here: Customer experience and cultural footprint are perhaps even more important than the coffee itself, and Howard Schultz understands those concepts like no one else. Product innovation, geographical expansion and one of the most valuable brands in the planet are some of the things Schultz is responsible for, and investors have good reasons to appreciate that.
A strong leadership is one of the most important factors behind the success of a business, and investors should never disregard the importance of a CEO when it comes to selecting the best stocks. Managers who understand the company and its industry, who are aligned with shareholders interests and have a long term focus can be one of the best things a company can offer to investors.

New York Leadership Awards 2009
View the photo gallery
The talented Lucy Liu presented honoree
John Bartlett with his award.
(Photo by Peter Lau Photography)
Our 2009 New York Leadership Awards on April 6 was an exciting evening, full of flashbulbs, celebrities and passion. From the venue with its spectacular view of the city lights to our honorees and amazing presenters, our guests enjoyed a very New York event.
Taking place high atop New York University's handsome Kimmel Center, flashbulbs popped as actress Lucy Liu and honoree John Bartlett welcomed the crowd. San Francisco Mayor and honoree Gavin Newsom, truly a rock star in his own right, and our own New York City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, were there too, also bathed in the photographers' strobes.
After a wonderful cocktail hour designed for that most New York of activities — schmoozing, Rev. Darlene Nipper, the Task Force's deputy executive director welcomed our guests. Executive Director Rea Carey spoke about our wins in Iowa and Vermont, contrasting them with the very real possibility of many of us being deliberately "unmarried" by the U.S. census, reminding us that there is always more to be done.
Quinn, in presenting Newsom with his Leadership Award, remarked on how much she depends on the advice of the Task Force in to her advocacy for the local community. She also spoke movingly of what the images of the mayor marrying our community meant and means to not only the LGBT community but all fair-minded people.
Newsom thrilled our guests with his speech, by turns humorous, self-deprecating and moving. His message to us was, paraphrasing Dr. King, that the arc of the universe does indeed bend toward justice. The mayor assured us that equality, including marriage equality, will be won someday in the not very distant future.
We were then very fortunate to have Lucy Liu make our Leadership Award presentation to John Bartlett. She spoke of growing up "different" as both an Asian American and as the child of immigrants. She applauded Bartlett for using his own outsider status to inform his creativity and his fashion design.
Bartlett, in his acceptance, spoke from the heart. He remarked that, while we in the U.S. certainly don't have the rights we deserve, our brothers and sisters in places like Iraq are being murdered simply for being gay or lesbian. He told us that receiving the award renewed his dedication to his art and to making sure it reflected his feelings about sexuality and gender.
The Task Force is grateful to the members of the event's host committee, led by board members Jeff Adler, Mark Sexton and Paula Redd Zeman, and further comprising board members Eric von Kuersteiner, Moonhawk River Stone and Michelle Stecker, in addition to Adam Becker, Suman Chakraborty, Ryan Greenberg, Ken Kidd, Nicholas Nicholson and Clay Williams.
Special thanks also go to all our sponsors who, with our guests, enabled the Task Force to raise nearly $100,000. Our generous Platinum donors were board co-chair Mark M. Sexton and his partner, Kirk Wallace, and the law firm of Skadden, Arps, Meagher & Flom, LLP. Gold sponsors included the Law Offices of Kevin J. Farrelly, David Kane, Liz Claiborne Inc., and Ted Snowdon. Silver sponsors were Suman Chakraborty, Avi Pemper & Mark Rabiner, M.D., and Larry Pidgeon.
Our 2009 Bronze sponsors included Stacey Bridgeman & Marjorie J. Hill, Ph.D., Gregory Brown & Linton Stables, Vincent Carrafiello, Kevin Foley & Stephen Littell, Mr. Ed Neppl & Mr. Scott Mitchell, Bob Smolin, board member Michelle Stecker and partner Carol Bresnahan, the watsons a creativity company, Clay Williams & David Groff, and board co-chair Paula Redd Zeman and her partner, Rev. Deborah G. Tammearu.
Many thanks as well to our media partners, including the Bilerico Project, HHC Marketing, HX, Joe.My.God, Mark Nelson, and Next.

41 year-old Johnny Bonnie sentenced to 10 1/2 years in prison and seven years probation Friday. While he serves his time his victims will continue living out their own life sentence."We were your typical family and he, Johnny Bonnie, ruined that for us." said Chance Molzan.14 year-old Chance Molzan watched her mother slip away. After this crash Chance was rushed to the Phoenix Children's Hospital emergency room while rapidly losing blood. Her mother suffered inoperable brain trauma and spent days in a coma."After she came out of the coma she didn't know where she was, who she was, she was at thirty seconds of memory at best" said Bo Molzan, Chance's father.Bo Molzan proudly calls his wife Marci a soccer mom and a best friend. Now she's permanently disabled suffering with confusion and anger."Very withdrawn, would rather hide in a bedroom, doesn't do well with people anymore... doesn't communicate well... definitely doesn't do well in groups or go to a grocery store... she doesn't work" said Bo Molzan.Bo now raises his four children like a single parent. His income goes to thousands in medical bills because Johnny Bonnie had no automobile insurance. Chance dreamed of getting a scholarship for playing sports."I cannot run... I cannot skip... I can't dance... I can't really do anything except walk." said Chance.The Molzan's hope others learn from this mans mistake."I want people to realize that even if you had one or two beers, or a glass of wine, it can still affect you, it can still hurt you, and I don't want anyone else going through what I went through" said Chance.The Molzan's now use social media to spread awareness about drinking and driving. Chance and her father also speak on behalf of Phoenix Children's Hospital because they're trying to raise funds to expand the same trauma room where Chance's life was saved.Donate here to help PCH expand it's trauma room: www.theneedisnowpch.com

Enrollment Closed
Unfortunately, this class is no longer available on Skillshare. Don't fret! There are hundreds of other classes out there for you to take.
Share evidence of your first networking "yes"
Are you struggling to find a job you care about? Getting turned down and you don't know why?
I founded NY Creative Interns and have spoken at conferences, colleges, and events across the country about erasing negativity from the phrase "it's all about who you know." Life is all about the people you meet and the things you create with them, but that's not a bad thing!
This class is designed for college students and recent grads who are looking for help finding their place (and a job, perhaps?) in the big city (or any city).
In this class we'll cover ways to reach out to people, balancing your search with social activities, how to find the best events, and the art of hustle. You'll leave class feeling confident and prepared to find and meet people who will help you in the next stage of your career. Plus, you'll have fun!
During class we will:
This class will consist of one kick-off livestream - I'll spend about 60 minutes on the presentation, with the rest of the time for application of what you've learned and Q&A. You'll work on a series of tasks that will help you practice your networking skills, and we'll hop back on a final livestream for feedback and Q&A.
By the end of this class, you'll have built your first networking hitlist...but you won't stop there. You'll actually make connections, whether in person or online!
"Emily is a great teacher because she's genuine and passionate about what she's talking about."
"I made a couple new friends/contacts! I was surprised how effective a virtual event could be."
"I love NY Creative Interns events because they teach professional principles while being light-hearted and casual. Everything is easier when you feel like you're in a comfortable and welcoming environment."
"Emily has tons of first hand experience when it comes to networking and making connections. This class provided some GREAT advice on all sorts of things from how to meet new people, find cool events or how to write an efficient email. The best part was Emily had many personal anecdotes throughout the class that she would share. I would definitely recommend this class to a recent graduate, it really gets you in the mindset you need to start reaching out and get stuff done!"
Ambition and enthusiasm!
Level: Beginner
School: Marketing
Related Subjects: Entrepreneurship
Emily has spoken about the power of social media and networking at numerous colleges, conferences, and events including Columbia University, New York University, SXSW Interactive, and ...
Great intro to networking :)

While the burgers were firming up, I grilled the rest of my yellow, red, green and poblano peppers up and sauted my mushrooms with garlc and red pepper flaked. At this point, I stopped and made myself a little lunch out of a corn tortilla, peppers, baked seitan and a tiny bit of avocado. I had planned on eating two tacos, but one was enough. Now the burger mixture was firm enough to make into 12 burgers, which I cooked in my cast iron pan and 12 meatballs , which I baked in my toaster oven. I also made 4 sausage size patties for breakfast.

Cooking up a storm
Thursday, June 29, 2006
I'm sad today. My grandmother died at 4am. She had been sick, and we knew that this was coming. They started Hospice Monday night. I'm glad she didn't suffer for long. She was a 4 pack a day smoker for 40 years and she died of lung cancer. Please, if you smoke, quit. I'm sure if she hadn't smoked she would have lived at least 10 to 15 years longer. She quit smoking 15 years ago. I'm grateful for my fond memories with her, but I wish I could have spent more time with her.
I'm not feeling much like cooking or doing much of anything, but I did go for some retail therapy to lighten my mood. I love the web. I found 5 lbs of coarse Sel Gris De Guerande (Sel Gris de Guérande - Coarse has a unique color that makes this a truly beautiful salt. The grey hue comes from its extremely high level of minerals and nutrients. The crystals range in size from 2-3mm. Popular for baking breads, soups and sauces. The soft, moist crystals will dissolve quickly and evenly when used in your favorite recipes. When used as a finishing salt, Sel Gris Coarse adds a nice crunch to your dishes. Neither treated or washed, it is totally natural and can be used in products that are labeled Organic. *This salt is certified organic by France's Nature & Progrés. This is the most rigorous salt certification process, which equates to purity and quality. ) for $31.00 and that includes shipping.
I feel shallow and silly for masking my sorrow in frugal salt procurement, but I think my grandma would understand.

Tonight we are haing Whole Wheat Angel hair, Veggie Marinara with TVP and salad for dinner. I've baked two loaves of bread (I usually am the one who eats most of my homemade bread, but I want to get my kids into the habit of it) and we'll probably have a smoothie or something for dessert. My husband asked for dinner to be ready at 4pm because he had a very early lunch and he wants to eat dinner before he works out. I might take a pic and post it tomorrow.
I'm really hoping that my Personal Chef business picks up. I need to figure out a way to market myself better, I think.
I'm planning on doing some big time cooking the next couple of days. I want to make Fajitas, but I need to make some seitan to do that. I also want to make some Chinese Eggplant, Mooshi, Fried Rice, more Un-cheese, tortillas and some Pina Colada Ice Cream. I tend to do big batches of cooking and then eat for several days, then do a big batch again, especially in the summer. Oh.. and I want to make a Sage Lentil Soup that I saw on blogger, but I need to remember who posted the recipe. I'll bet the leftover soup will make great sausage patties. The great thing, is that I don't have to do to the store to do any of the cooking I want to do.... and that's a good thing!

Burgers and stir Fry's
This was our lunch today.. I took the leftover Sloppy Joes, mixed it with oatmeal, vital wheat gluten and some breadcrumbs and cooked them for several minutes a side in my cast iron skillet. I used Vegan Gourmet jack, tomatoes, mustard, relish and iceberg lettuce. Yee-haw! On the side is a slaw I made from daikon, cabbage, red onion and carrots, leftover from the other night. The trick to eating leftover slaw is to dress it very lightly and not salting it until you're ready to eat it.
The Good Stir Fry
Here's the pic of dinner last night. I wrote about it in my last post. I'm not happy with my pictures, I'm not sure if it's my new crappy monitor, but theylook really dark and it annoys me. I guess I should figure out how to use Photoshop.
I'm not sure what we're doing for dinner tonight. We'll probably have leftovers and I'll make a big salad. I need to clear out my fridge because on Wednesday I'm making a trip to Trader Joes! I live around 70 miles from one, so I don't go often. I sooo wish they would open one up near me.

veggie filled quesadilla

Oh the cuteness
My youngest teenager (oh how strange it is that my baby is a teenager now!) and my dog, Jorda. I know the second pic is blurry, but she's so cute with her little ears... and I have no food to post today. I've been cooking, just not taking pics. I've had a house full of teen boys all week and it's been hectic.
People in blogland have been talking about Sloppy Lentils a lot, so last night I was inspired to make "Sloppy Joes" with TVP. I like Sloppy Lentils better though. I had Chipotle Orange BBQ Sauce in the freezer, so after sauteing onions, garlic, green, yellow, red and jalapeno peppers I poured that over recostituted TVP and simmered it for 30 minutes. Earlier in the day I made a slaw out of green cabbage, shredded carrots, shredded daikon, red onion, red pepper, dijon, veganaise, a tiny bit of KAL stevia, and Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar. I also picked up a large Scala bread at the bakery and filled it with the Sloppy mixture, coleslaw and a bunch of dill pickles. It was a great sandwich. I have a lot of leftover sloppy mixture, I'll probably turn half of it into burgers and freeze the rest.
Lunch today consisted of corn tortillas with my uncheese,(a mixture of Bryanna's recipe for structure and my own personal taste preferecnes)baby spinach, homemade salsa, jalapenos warmed up in my beloved cast iron skillet. My husband and kids had swiss cheese sandwiches and chips. I have no idea what I'm doing for dinner tonight. I'm not really inspired to cook because while it's not horribly hot, it is very muggy and my energy is low. We'll probably do leftover night.
My husband is working on my computer as I type this! I might be online by tonight!

Grilled Vegetable and Tofu Sandwich with Pesto
Blogger is really acting up.
A couple days ago I was reading Eat Peace, Please's blog and she asked about what to do with leftover basil. I immediately thought of my roasted veggie sandwich with basil mayo. I made a pesto out of roasted sunflower seeds, basil, garlic, miso, lemon juice and olive oil and spread that on one half of the whole wheat baguette, veganaise on the other half, then topped it with roasted red pepper, scallions, eggplant, zucchini that had been marinated in a spicy vinaigrette. The tofu was baked in a diluted soy sauce, garlic, ginger and lime juice bath. The end result was delicious. I have another half of the sandwich for lunch today.

a very non-vegan fathers day
Tomorrow is Father's Day, so my kitchen will be temporarily corrupted with flesh. This does not make me happy, but it makes my husband happy and it's his day so I will cook for him. Believe, me, as a lifelong vegetarian, the thought of having flesh in my home is just totally disgusting.. but I want him to feel special.. and he doesn't need to know that I bring out my thrift store cooking utensils to make his meal. lol.. For bfast I am making him a smoked salmon spread and will buy egg bagels.. (how gross can you get???) and for dinner I am going to make him chinese orange chicken... if the weather is not too hot to fry chicken. If it is, then I'll make it later in the week. I'm planning on making orange seitan for the kids and I (in a different pan, of course).. I have not bought the flesh and gloves yet. Oh, how I despise flesh... I guess I'm venting here. I probably cook it around 4 times a year and each and every time I end up bleaching my kitchen and hands (and I NEVER use bleach.. I'm all about my own, non-toxic, homemade cleaners!)...
so I guess I'm just bitching here. It's all good. It's his day. Lunch will be Vegan though!

I love recipe testing!
Habanero Black Bean and Veggie Rice
I tested the Sweet Potato Coconut Soup for Catherine (http://cathweber.blogspot.com/) and let me tell you, It's delicious! With a rich, spicy flavor and smooth texture it could either dress up a holiday meal or be used as an everyday treat! I can even see using it as a sauce for pasta. It was ready in less than 30 minutes and was simple to prepare. A sure winner!
Since I actually *gasp* measured my ingredients, I had about half a sweet potato left. I diced it up and sauted it in a tiny bit of olive oil with cumin seed, an onion and a poblano chile til the sweet potato was done, then added my homemade habanero sauce, (This stuff is sooo good! The next time I make it, I'll write down what I do and post the recipe. I make huge batches and freeze it) some of the veggie brown rice and some black beans. I warmed it through and at the end, stirred in a bunch of cilantro. We'll eat this as is as well as use it for taco and burrito filling.
Can you tell that our family loves black beans and Mexican food? I make around 2 quarts of salsa every week and we eat it all. My 14 year old son would eat an entire bag of blue corn chips and a quart of salsa in one sitting if I let him.

not living up to my ideals
Lunch for me today was leftover quiche with the tomato sauce and a baby spinach salad.
I created a new recipe that I'm going to try for dinner. It is a version of "BLT" pasta salad. I have some tempeh marinating in dark soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic, liquid smoke, nutritional yeast, lots of black pepper , stevia and dijon mustard. I'm going to bake that up and make the salad out of whole wheat pasta, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, veganaise, red onion, relish, garlic, dijon and broccoli. I think I'll serve some sugar snap peas on the side. If it turns out well, I'll post the recipe. I'm still playing around with the ingredients.
We ordered pizza for dinner last night. I ate it. I hate that I am not as strong as I'd like to be. I seem to give in to cheese about once a week. I guess it's better than I used to be... but it still bothers me. Hopefully soon, I'll be able to let go of my cheese obsession. I really, really believe in being vegan and I can't stand not living my beliefs. bleh. On the bright side, the whole time I was eating it I was mentally talking to myself about the cows and thinking of the puss in the cheese and so on. Last night I had an upset stomach thinking of it. I could feel it just sitting there and it bothered me.

Tofu quiche
Friday, June 09, 2006
changes in my menu
My leftover rice and beans have been used up for lunches and snacks, so I've had to come up with a new dinner.
For lunch I'm making an Indian Tomato Gravy, similar to chana masala, (but without chickpeas) , to pour over my baked falafels.
I'll serve this over whole wheat cous-cous and have a salad with baby spinach, red onions, pumpkin seeds and my tofu ceasar dressing.
For dinner, we're having Chipotle Split Pea burgers (made from the leftover soup) on toast with veganaise, sprouts, tomato, onion and avocado and a side of coleslaw made from cabbage, carrots, onions, daikon, cilantro, veganaise, stevia, mustard and garlic.

Baked Falafel and don't cook broccoli sprouts ..ever!
Ok, first of all if you are ever thinking of using broccoli sprouts in a stir fry, DON'T DO IT!! I made a delicious stir-fry last night and decided to throw in around 3 cups of the sprouts at the very end. It was not very good. Surprisingly, my kids ate it. I gave a good portion of mine to the dog. hehe. It just wasn't very good. I am spoiled. I like every single thing I eat to be fabulous.
It's cold and rainy here today, so I'll be making a big pot of Chipotle Split Pea soup, which is probably one of my favorite things in the whole wide world. I'm also going to try Dori's Quinoa Oat muffins. I'm excited about those. She turned me onto Kal Stevia, which is much better than the Sweet Leaf I've been using (Even though I get a big kick out the Sweet Leaf brand because I think of the Black Sabbath song)..
I was asked to post a recipe for my Baked Falafels. These are by no means authentic, but for me, they hit the spot when I'm craving one. In my opinion, they are better the next day because they firm up. When they're first done they are a bit mushy inside, so if you have the time, make them a day ahead and reheat them. I serve these in pita with ,Lowfat Goddess Dressing, shredded lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber and green or black olives.
Baked Falafel
1 29 oz can drained chickepas (or 3 cups cooked chickepas)
1 1/2 cups chopped scallions
6 cloves garlic
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp ground coriander
1 cup fresh parsley
1 cup fresh cilantro
2 TBS soy sauce or braggs
1 TBS siracha or hot sauce (optional)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp baking powder
juice and zest of 2 lemons
4 TBS extra virgin olive oil
around 1 2/3-2 1/2 cups dried breadcrumbs (more or less depending on the humidity, start with 1 cup and work your way up to 2 1/2 cups if needed) You want to be able to form a ball and have it hold together.
Method: Pre-heat oven to 400
Place all of the ingredients (except the breadcrumbs) into a food processor and process pulse until combined. Place mixture in a mixing bowl and add the breadcrumbs.
Chill for 30 minutes. Use around 2 TBS per ball and roll them into balls. Place on a
sheet pan (I usually use a silicone baking mat, but you can just spray it with spray if you'd like) and spray the tops of the falafels with cooking spray. Bake for around 20 minutes, then turn them over, spray the other side of the balls and bake for another 15 minutes or so. You might want to check them after 15 minutes on the first side in case your oven is different from mine. This will make around 16-18 falafels and I usually serve 2 or 3 per person.
*If you don't want to use your oven you can make these into patties and fry them up in a cast iron skillet over medium heat, around 4 minutes per side.

Change of plans
Instead, I'll probably make a stir fry with green beans, carrots, onions, garlic, ginger, chiles, cauliflower, bean sprouts and baked tofu topped with cilantro. I'll serve it over brown rice....
For some reason my broccoli sprouts are really strong tasting this time around. I have a gallon container filled with them and I'm not sure what to do with them all. I guess they'll be OK in salad.. so maybe I should just make a big salad tonight and use them and make some smoked, baked tofu cubes to go on top.
For lunch I'll probably have a wrap on lavash with lots of the sprouts, guacamole, tomatoes, shredded carrots and chickpea salad.
Homemade pizza with caramelized red onions, green peppers and black olives, zucchini, dried red pepper, garlic, oregano and fresh basil (soycheese on the zuke side and regular cheese on the veggie side)

menu, birthday
I did my usual Saturday fridge clean out and made veggie burgers. I throw almost all my leftovers into them and they almost always work out. Actually, this week, I only used hummus, quinoa, oats and leftover veggies. I used breadcrumbs as a binder along with flax meal. I planned on turning them into falafels, but decided that the onions, mushrooms and peppers would be better suited for burgers.
I'm soaking black beans tonight so I can make a big pot of them for the week. I turn half of them into chipotle-lime refried beans and use the rest whole along with brown rice for burrito filling (for the kids lunches), soups and just for eating.
My menu for dinners with week (starting Monday night) is:
Monday: Black Bean Tostadas, Guacamole, Homemade Salsa, Salad, Homemade Corn and Wheat Tortillas (I will grind my own flour for this), Strawberry/Lime Smoothies
Tuesday: Whole Wheat Pasta with a Mushroom-Cashew Sauce, Wilted Escarole Salad
Wednesday: Oven Baked Seitan Nuggets, Potato Salad, Cabbage-Daikon Slaw, Raw Red, Green and Yellow Bell Peppers
Thursday: "Big Salad" (with all veggies/sprouts in the house), Homemade Croutons, Cold Baked Tofu, Seitan Pepperoni, Some Block Uncheeses, "Green Goddess" dressing, Homemade Garlic Breadsticks with a White Bean, Garlic, Olive oil and Rosemary diping sauce
Friday: Black Beans and Brown Rice, Salad, Guac, Homemade Salsa
Saturday: Homemade Pizza, Vegan for me, Non-Vegan for the rest of the house, Salad
Sunday: Veggies Burgers, Oven Fries, Strawberry/Hanabero Sauce, Raw Veggies
We eat a lot of salad when the weather is warm.. and soup when it's cold. Hopefully my computer will finally be up and running so I can post pics. If not, I'll have my husband install the software on his computer so I can do it.

As noted in our review, Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes is very short. Our Steve beat the game in about two hours, but if you know what you're doing and skip optional objectives, you can speed through the game in ten minutes.
That's precisely what Eurogamer did, and here's the video for proof:

Export price index rose 5.8 percent over the past year
November 15, 2010
The price index for overall exports rose 5.8 percent over the past year, the largest 12-month advance since a 7.0-percent jump between September 2007 and September 2008. Import prices rose 3.6 percent over the past 12 months.
Export prices increased 0.8 percent in October following similar advances of 0.6 percent and 0.8 percent in September and August, respectively. Higher prices for agricultural and nonagricultural exports contributed to the increases in each of the three months. Prices for consumer goods and automotive vehicles rose in October, increasing 0.9 percent and 0.2 percent, respectively.
The price index for overall imports increased 0.9 percent in October, the largest monthly advance for the index since a 1.1-percent advance in April. The October rise was also only the second one-month upturn since the April increase. Despite the downward trend between May and September, import prices rose 3.6 percent over the past 12 months.
The price index for imports of foods, feeds, and beverages rose 1.1 percent in October despite a downturn in coffee prices. Coffee prices were the main contributor to a 9.8-percent rise in foods, feeds, and beverages for the year ended in October.
Import prices for automotive vehicles rose 0.4 percent in October, an increase that was in part attributable to year-end model changeovers. In contrast, consumer goods prices fell 0.5 percent, led by falling prices for medicinal, dental, and pharmaceutical products and household goods.
These data are from the BLS International Price program. Import and export price data are subject to revision. For more information, see "U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes — October 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-10-1547.

A big chunk of the big data trend is about collecting and processing information to predict what you want to buy at any given moment. No wonder, because the incentive is huge.
Global spending on Internet advertising topped $100 billion last year. Big data processing to create rich user profiles -- based on cookies, clickstreams, keywords in social media content, and so on -- can go a long way toward delivering more targeted and effective advertising.
[ It's time to rethink security. Two former CIOs show you how to rethink your security strategy for today's world. Bonus: Available in PDF and e-book versions. | Stay up to date on the latest security developments with InfoWorld's Security Central newsletter. ]
Mobile devices are raising this guessing game to a new level, because GPS enables them to know exactly where you are at any given time. In the past, I've mainly thought of mobile location-awareness as an opportunity for, say, brick-and-mortar stores to deliver a special 20 percent off coupon when you're just around the corner. That idea has been around for 15 years.
But there's a deeper user profiling aspect to this: You are where you go.
The notion that mobile location is not merely transient, but persistent data embedded in your user profile comes courtesy of a recent conversation with Gil Elbaz, CEO of Factual -- an Andreessen Horowitz startup that calls itself the "king of location data," with high-quality information on more than 65 million places around the world. The company's Geopulse Audience product analyzes "the geo-behavior of mobile users to generate rich user profiles to help you understand your users."
Elbaz notes that, under most circumstances, this information is not personally identifiable. But when you start to think about the explosion in wearables as well, the depth of the information that can be collected is mind-boggling.
For example, on Saturdays, I like to take long bicycle rides. From my iPhone's GPS it's pretty clear I'm too slow to be riding in a car and too fast to be on foot, so I must be on a bike. If an advertiser cared, it could determine by my speed what kind of rider I am (slow), mash that up with my age and income, and predict exactly the sort of equipment I'd be most likely to buy.
