Janel was introduced to netsuke years ago, while taking classes from a master potter who lived north of the San Francisco area. During her free time, she stopped in at the De Younge Museum in San Francisco, and saw a room dedicated to netsuke.
"I was fascinated by the small and very detailed sculptures, bought the little show catalog, and then continued down the path with my pottery." Janel recalled, "Then 12 or 15 years later, I found my work was evolving beyond the shallow relief carving and celadon glazed work I was doing with porcelain. I wanted my frogs and leaves to take on a three-dimensional form. I remembered the small, all-around sculpted netsuke and started to teach it to myself."
Still a potter at heart, her initial efforts involved carving porcelain clay. Then she attended her first netsuke collector's convention in 1993, met other netsuke carvers, and learned about handling wood. In 1995, she switched over to wood. Compared to the cold, pale and fragile porcelain, she found she preferred wood for carving. It added a warmth and vitality to her subjects that comes from within the material itself.
Unlike traditional Netsuke, which often illustrated people from folk tales or jokes, Janel's work is based in nature.
"It's hard to say where it began, Janel recalled, "I've always enjoyed looking at nature, discovering the relationship of what is sitting on what and how each creature exists. Interesting surprises stick in my mind ... like discovering it was a katydid that was making the noise ... or seeing a little tree frog sitting on a raspberry leaf and wondering how it got there. I choose to carve things that interest me and my goal is to share a moment of quiet pleasure with the person looking at it."
Janel usually works on one piece at a time. When a piece involves using a complex process, such as creating the amber eyes of a frog, she may begin another piece while taking on the various steps of the process.
"When I am ready to begin a new carving, sometimes I look through my collection of small pieces of exotic hardwoods and see what kind of subject might fit within one of them," she explained. "And sometimes I start with a firm concept ... then I might use boxwood since I have larger pieces and can make an idea fit."
Though it helps to see the animal move, Janel refers to books and photographs, and collected specimens of insects, leaves and sticks. For detailed information, she'll sometimes look on the Internet for images. Her animals are a little stylized to fit the form, but she tries to use distinct characteristic of the subject for accurate, recognizable representation. Frogs and toads are a favorite. They're readily available in her back yard, and she's even raised a few tree frogs and toads in a terrarium.
Janel uses a variety of wood and other materials for her carvings. She likes boxwood, because it can take some color and be stained. She sometimes uses a stain she made from boiling pecan shells, which gives a warm, medium brown color to boxwood. African Blackwood is another favorite and woods that have a dark and light definition between the heart and sap woods. And she's even tried her hand at ivory ... from a woolly mammoth!
"A dealer in legal mammoth ivory in Alaska selected a long, beautiful piece of tusk which was found in sand and gravel. This piece has a more pleasant odor than pieces which are found in the vicinity of the dead animal. Carving ivory is more of a filing, scraping, sanding and polishing procedure, and since it takes a high polish you've got to work hard to eliminate scratches."
Janel is continuously experimenting with different finishes.
"I once tried an almond luster spray-on furniture polish from Homer Formby," Janel recalled, "But it raised the grain, which I didn't like. So, I sprayed it into a jar and as the moisture evaporated it separated into an oil and a paste. I use the oil on African Blackwood which darkens the wood temporarily. But when it dries, the oil leaves some protection. And sometimes I'll use the paste which I believe to be wax, rub it in, and then when dry I will buff it."
A true netsuke must have two holes, himotoshi, for the cord that originally held the pouch. Janel prefers to create natural holes around an arm and leg for instance ... though it's technically more difficult. Every once in while, she just doesn't want to put holes in a piece. She then proclaims it an okimono, a convenient term for a scholar's object that sits on a desk for contemplation.
When they gather for netsuke collector shows, some of her fellow contemporary netsuke carvers object to her okimonos and encourage her to put himotoshi into the pieces. But a pure, contemporary netsuke collector is a rare person, and the wider group of wood collectors are the ones who buy her work. Because of that shortage of collectors, and with more and more carvers, the field has become increasingly competitive in recent years. One of Janel's frustrations about her field is her isolation from other carvers. The fact that many are now reluctant to share techniques -- even when they are together -- makes the seclusion even more frustrating.
Aside from one or two shows a year, Janel finds marketing her work to be a challenge. On her website, she presents her carvings ... pieces currently for sale and those no longer available for sale. She works in the Sunrise, Minnesota studio she shares with her potter husband. Pricing is another complicated challenge. Since she can put up to 100 to 200 hours of careful work into some of her pieces, Janel charges thousands of dollars for a single netsuke.
She loves what she does. Her web site makes her feel more connected to others who are interested in netsuke and netsuke carving. She enjoys meeting those rare individuals, her buyers, who have such a passion for netsuke. And, with those who are open to it, she loves to learn and share ideas with other carvers. What more could you ask from life?

INDIANAPOLIS – A Gary man accused of shooting an Indianapolis police officer pleaded not guilty Tuesday to charges of attempted murder and carrying a handgun without a license.
Charles Williams, 22, entered the plea in Marion Superior Court, The Indianapolis Star reported.
Authorities said Williams wounded Indianapolis Metro Police Officer Gregory Stevens in leg on Sept. 24 at an apartment complex on the city's east side. The shooting came four days after IMPD officer Rod Bradway was fatally shot as he forced himself into an apartment where a domestic disturbance was underway.
Stevens, who has since been released from a hospital, was shot while responding to a call that two men were firing shots at the apartment complex, a probable cause affidavit said.
Stevens said a door to an apartment swung open and Williams walked out holding a gun, the affidavit said. As Williams started walking away, Stevens identified himself as a police officer and ordered Williams to drop his gun, but Williams shot at Stevens, hitting him in the right thigh.
Stevens fired twice at Williams, and a second officer fired four rounds at Williams, who suffered several gunshot wounds, police said.
Williams is being held on a $250,000 bond in the Marion County Jail.

According to the Laughing Squid.com Earlier this year, Rogue Ales introduced the Voodoo Maple Bacon Ale, an artisan pink-bottled brown ale that combines the tastes of bacon & maple syrup inspired by one of Voodoo Doughnut's signature doughnuts. According to some of the comments it doesn't taste all that good. I think I'd like to try it.
Would you drink this?
The reaction is too funny

Lude-loving hippies who played their Ozzy-era Sabbath LPs at a dragging 16 r.p.m. foreshadowed the slow, sludgy, helium-voiced tones of Yob. The effect is even grander live, when vocalist-guitarist-ringleader Mike Scheidt literally moves the air around concertgoers with the full force of his amplifier and endlessly elastic lungpower. It's hypnotic, harrowing and, thanks to the collateral eardrum damage that comes with it, impossible to forget. With Hull and Bezoar.

Looking for some help:
I am building (or trying to build) an AR in .260 (308 platform). I have my barrel already cut for 260 as well as the bolt. I have my stripped upper and lower (MEGA 308 in nickel boron).
I am in need of a few things and just can not find them due to the current political scare.
Mainly, I need a 308 bolt carrier. MEGA is a DPMS platform not sure if it matters. If anyone can point me in the right direction company wise that may have these in stock that would be great.
feel free to PM me if you are a shop/company with one in stock or know of where I can find one. Stainless would be great but right now anything would do.

The Transition Handbook
Rob Hopkins
We live in an oil-dependent world, arriving at this level of dependency in a very short space of time by treating petroleum as if it were in infinite supply. Most of us avoid thinking about what happens when oil runs out (or becomes prohibitively expensive), but "The Transition Handbook" shows how the inevitable and profound changes ahead can have a positive outcome.
These changes can lead to the rebirth of local communities that will grow more of their own food, generate their own power, and build their own houses using local materials. They can also encourage the development of local currencies to keep money in the local area.
The Transition Handbook provides an understanding of what's at stake and practical tips to start and develop a Transition Initiative. As of July 2009, there are over 200 "official" transition towns in 15 countries around the world, with hundreds more in early stages. They provide valuable experience and lessons-learned for those of us on this side of the Atlantic. With little proactive thinking at the governmental level, communities are taking matters into their own hands and acting locally.
If your town is not a transition town, this upbeat guide offers you the tools for starting the process.

Laughs and Love (laughsandlove.com)
With glazed over eyes, staring into the face of the person I was frantically trying to escape conversation with, I grew increasingly annoyed. In my head I was imagining all of the ways to potentially abort the conversation I somehow became trapped in. I kept looking at my watch thinking the person would get the hint, but they remained unfazed.

NASHVILLE, TN - I thought to myself, I've heard this drama a million times before and it gives me anxiety to have to sit and listen to it...AGAIN. I had to appear incredibly impatient at this point. I felt bad, but already had so much running through my mind to even want to hear this mess.
Then it occurred to me, this person right in front of me in this moment, this IS Jesus. Why do I not see Jesus in this person? Where is the Jesus in me? Is this person seeing any resemblance of love in me right now? What is my problem?
Would I ever act so disinterested if Christ in the flesh were standing before me? I sure hope the answer would be no.
Our prayers are answered, light a virtual candle.
However, there is a huge disconnect between the way I was thinking and acting in the conversation I was having and with the way I would treat Jesus Christ.
The problem with that?
Christ is in each one of us. Living and dwelling within each of us. He is no more in me than in the person I was so irritated with. In realizing this, I began to look differently at the face of the person I was standing with. I began to picture the face of Christ in the face of the person I was talking to and my mindset began to shift. I felt bad for trying so hard to brush off the conversation. If Christ is in this person, then I need to act like it.
The next time you are in a conversation and you grow increasingly irritated, imagine the face of Christ in the face of the person you are conversing with. Give it a try, you'll likely want to re-evaluate your actions and thoughts.
Laughs and Love,Jackie:-)

Giving Cameras The Best Autofocus Possible, Autofocus From The Human Eye
These University of Texas scientists took a cue from Mother Nature when searching for the most advanced autofocus design on Earth. Our eyes do it better than anything we know of, so why not model it after our own lens?
"Johannes Burge, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Texas, and his advisorWilson Geisler, wondered how it was that the eyes of humans and many otheranimals were able to focus so much more efficiently than most digital cameras. In a traditional autofocus system, the camera uses only one piece of information about a scene to determine whether or not an object is in focus—its level of contrast. Contrast, says Burge, isn't always a perfect proxy for focus. But it's worse than that: To determine in which direction to re-focus, a camera must first change its point of focus and compare the new image it captures with the old one, to determine whether or not the object in question has a higher or lower level of contrast. Often, the camera isn't even re-focusing in the correct direction when it captures this second image. This method of "guessing and checking" is "slow and not particularly accurate," says Burge.
Burge's and Geisler's approach is different. As they outlined in a recent paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, their software algorithm cananalyze any still image captured from a scene and instantly know how to re-focus a lens to bring it into focus. It requires no before-and-after comparison. The way it works is that it takes an inventory of the features in a scene."

FSF Settles with Cisco over Licensing
In December 2008, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) filed a lawsuit against network giant Cisco, claiming that its subsidiary Linksys had multiple violations of the GPL. The two parties have now reached an agreement.
As part of the agreement, Cisco is appointing a Free Software Director for Linksys who will oversee Linksys' compliance with free software licenses, primarily the GNU General Public License. The director is to report periodically to the FSF about its compliance efforts.
Cisco also agreed to publish a licensing notice on the Linksys website and in a separate publication, notify Linksys customers of their licensing rights under FSF guidelines, and provide free source code downloads of the parts of Linksys products affected by the licenses. Cisco is also to contribute monetarily to the FSF to promote their efforts.

Alan achieved his CPA designation in 1980 after graduating from St. Cloud State University in 1979. He started his career working for Larson Allen in 1980, and afterwards spent a short time working in Decorah, IA. A business opportunity presented itself in 1984, calling him back to the state of Minnesota (Paynesville, specifically). The partnership Frieler Habben accounting was formed shortly after, and in 1996, the partnership changed to Habben Hennen & Co.
Gail Has worked in the accounting/tax preparation field since 1980., and joined Habben and Hennen in 1987. She has her Associate of Science degree in Business Administration from North Dakota State College, and continued to get her Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Bemidji State University.
She received her designation as a Registered Accounting Practitioner in 2003, and now specializes in tax preparation (farm/business/individual/corporation/partnership/ and trusts), general ledger bookwork, financial statement preparation, auditing, payroll preparation, and all related payroll tax forms.
Jean, a Rasmussen Business College Graduate (1999), has been employed with Habben Hennen & Co. since June 2001. She handles the reception duties of greeting clients, answering phones, and taking appointments. On the accounting side of things, she processes: payroll and related tax returns, general ledger accounting, and lawful gambling returns.
Chris joined the firm in October (2008). He holds an AAS degree in Business Administration from Rasmussen College, and is in the process of completing his Bachelors' degree in Accounting at St. Cloud State University. He is responsible for personal tax preparation, basic audit field work, and anything else that's put on his plate.
He is also responsible for managing the content of this website (please direct any questions or concerns regarding the website to him).
Ellen comes in to assist us each year during those crazy months that we like to call "tax season". During that time, you'll find her in the front office handling reception duties, preparing tax returns to be handed out, and assisting Jean with other various issues.
She provides that extra support during a critical time at the office, and there's no way Habben Hennen & Co. would operate as smoothly as it does without her.

Please help me. I have spent hours trying to get my Linsys WRT 160N wireless router to work with my Westell 6100 modem (E90-610015-06). I have tried the suggestions from dslreports, so please do not send me a link to this website. Setting the modem to bridge and setting the wireless router to PPPoE does not work. Also, changing the IP address on the router does not work. Does anyone have any other ideas?
changing the IP Address does work.
You might be doing something differently.
Let me tell you a few things to check
You have to open your NIC properties
make sure its set like this
Then plug your PC into your linksys, or make sure you connect to it wirelessly.
put in 192.168.1.1
Change the Local IP Address on the first page to reflect 192.168.0.1.
Then plug your linksys into the westell.
reboot the linksys, then reboot the pc (or you can do a repair, or an ipconfig/release and ipconfig/renew in DOS) and as long as the westell is online, everything else will pass internet traffic through
I hook those up all the time the same way and they work just fine.

When I was growing up in Santa Fe, and the town was half its current size, I remember my father telling me there were probably more dogs living here than people. After all, dogs are smart and have good taste. They're also easier to communicate with. St. Francis of Assisi would have been proud of the way we look after and love our dogs. As you can see below, whether you're living here or just visiting, there are plenty of canine services and canine-friendly establishments. Here's a partial list:
78 Vista del Oro
Cerrillos, New Mexico 87010
This just out-of-town hotel, set in the folds of 64 acres of rolling and mountainous terrain, happily accepts dogs of all sizes. If your dog ever gets lonely, he or she can always hang with Daisy, the resident terrier. No add-on dog fees.
3650 Cerrillos Road
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87507
Dogs of all shapes and sizes are welcome. No additional fees, but dogs are not allowed to be left unattended in the rooms.
220 W. Manhattan Ave
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501
Only a few minutes from the Plaza, in the Railyard district, this adorable B&B has a $15 nightly surcharge for dogs.
309 W San Francisco
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501
Right downtown, this award-winning, amenity-rich hotel charges a one-time $50 pet fee.
3625 Cerrillos Road
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505
Guests bringing dogs are required to sign a responsibility pledge at check in. No additional fees, but dogs cannot be left unattended in the rooms.
100 Sandoval Street
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501
Across from the Eldorado Hotel in the downtown area, a one-time fee of $50 is charged for your canine. Also, you must bring a kennel, and the dog kept contained, when the housekeeper is working in the room.
113 Washington Avenue
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501
A stone's throw from the Plaza, this top-rated hotel has a one-time pet fee of $20.

3695 Cerrillos Road
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505
Upon arrival, guests must notify the front desk of their pets, are liable for any damages, and must be with their dogs in the rooms.
1698 Galisteo Street
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505

1805 Second Street
Santa Fe, New Mexico
Dogs allowed only at outside eating area and must be on leash.
95 W Marcy
Santa Fe, New Mexico
Dogs allowed only at outside eating area and must be on leash.
753 Cerrillos Road
Santa Fe, New Mexico
Dogs allowed at outside eating area of the deli but must be on leash.
930 Baca Street
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505
Dogs allowed only at outside eating areas and must be leashed.
58 S Federal Place
Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501
Dogs are allowed to sit with you at the outside eating area depending on crowds and good behavior by your dog, which must also be leashed.
Many, but not all city, state and federal hiking trails and camping sites, allow dogs. Check with the Parks Department or appropriate agencies. In addition to bringing enough water and food for your dog, a leash is required, as is cleaning up after your pooch. Here are a few favorites of the canine crowd.
Trailhead is off Camino De Cruz Blanca (right before Wilderness Gate) or Saint John's College parking lot. Look to spend a good hour with your pooch as you ascend up to the 9,100' summit. If you're worried that the hike might be too rough for your canine, there are some easier trails on the way up. Great city views await you at the top.
There are two access points: one at the north trailhead on NM 475 at Sierra del Norte, the other near the intersection of Cerro Gordo and Upper Canyon Road. Both are relatively easy, casual and close to town. Be aware that mountain bikers sometimes share the trail with you so keep an on your dog.
Next to the Winsor trailhead (Ski Basin area at around 10,000 feet), the trail begins with a descent which leads to a stroll through high-alpine forests. Perfect for kids as well as dogs.
For the most fit dogs and owners, this full-day hike through the Santa Fe National Forest begins at Winsor Trail and takes you to Santa Fe's highest summit-Baldy-in the Pecos Wilderness at 12,622 feet. (North Truchas Peak, in Rio Arriba County north of Santa Fe, bests it at 13,024 ft.)
After following the Santa Fe Baldy trail through a gate, you and your pooch will begin a long descent down. When you get to the bottom of the descent, take a right and begin up a steep hill. The hill will open out on a beautiful meadow. From the meadow you will begin a long, steep, ascent up the trail. Many dogs and owners turn back, but those who stick it out are rewarded with a breath-taking view of the lake at the top.
It's best if you and Fido start at the crack of dawn and ascend from the backside, where you follow the Santa Fe Baldy trail. Eventually the trail will take you to a fork in a huge meadow. Go right on the fork. The trail will lead you to the top of Lake Peak and some extraordinary views.

Teaching Scientists To Become Entrepreneurs, One Cold Call At A Time
"Stanford lecturer and former serial entrepreneur Steve Blank, who teaches the class along with Mohr Davidow General Partner Jon Feiber and True Ventures founder John Burke, said he thinks it could permanently change how companies get started, because it forces students to find and talk to prospective customers immediately as a way to shape their products."

- "Many people are doing relief or aid operations, but at the institute (Stanford Institute for Innovation in Developing Economies) we will be asking how we can stimulate entrepreneurs and business ideas so that the people receiving aid today can become self-sufficient so they won't need aid in the future," Professor Hau Lee, Stanford

Tina Seelig (Stanford Technology Ventures Program) on Stanford + NYC
Tina Seelig, PhD (pictured in red jacket, above, teaching a Stanford course on creativity) is the Executive Director for the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, the entrepreneurship center at Stanford University's School of Engineering.
Our team at the Stanford Technology Ventures Program (STVP) is privileged to play a role in educating the next generation of entrepreneurs and innovators, preparing them to see the world as a place rich with opportunity and full of potential.
As the entrepreneurship program at Stanford's School of Engineering, centered in the department of Management Science and Engineering, we see our job as helping students to gain the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are needed to turn the challenges around them into opportunities, and to build a better world. Whether they launch a startup, join an established company, or choose another path, these skills will be pivotal in helping them progress through their careers and to contribute to society.
At STVP, our philosophy is that it is no longer good enough for engineers and scientists to come out of school with purely technical training. They must have the entrepreneurial skills needed to bring their ideas to life. This is important for them as individuals, for the companies they found or join, and for the nation as a whole. We do this by providing them with the knowledge they need as well as experiences that hone their skills. They graduate with an entrepreneurial mindset, fully understanding that the challenges they face are opportunities, and that as entrepreneurs their role is to do much more than is imaginable with much less than seems possible.
Since the earliest days of Stanford, the university has been building bridges between our research labs, classrooms, and Silicon Valley to create scalable ventures that fuel the local and national economy. An iconic example occurred as early as 1939 when Engineering Dean Fred Terman encouraged students William Hewlett and David Packard to launch a company to commercialize an audio oscillator based upon work that Hewlett had developed as a graduate student in Terman's lab. Since then, Stanford has fostered the creation of an ever-growing list of technology companies, including Varian, Sun Microsystems, Cisco Systems, Yahoo, Rambus and Google. We would look forward to the bringing our knowledge and experience to New York City to help shape and support the local entrepreneurial ecosystem, built upon the unique resources and culture of the community.
Our work at Stanford is attracting recognition and support on a national level. For example, STVP was recently awarded a five-year grant to launch a national center dedicated to unleashing the entrepreneurial spirit in undergraduate engineering students across the country. This National Center for Engineering Pathway to Innovation, or Epicenter, will be connecting the nation's 350 engineering schools with the goal of igniting interest in entrepreneurship and sharing best practices in entrepreneurship education.
The NSF has also asked Stanford to help leading scientists commercialize new technologies through their new Innovation Corps program. Teams from around the country, including faculty members and PhD students, are participating in an intense, 10-week program designed to help them discover and test scalable business models based upon their discoveries. The first cohort of 21 teams is participating in this program right now.
In all of our efforts, we will build upon our deep experience with online education. For the past ten years we have offered a free collection of materials on entrepreneurship that is both extensive and growing. Our ECorner website has thousands of videos and podcasts of entrepreneurial thought leaders, most of whom are from Silicon Valley. We look forward to expanding this collection with speakers from New York City. Along with other efforts, this will allow us to build strong ties to the New York City community of entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and company leaders.
New York City holds a very special place in my heart. My parents both grew up, went to college, and worked in New York City, and I grew up in New Jersey. I spent endless hours in "The City," taking full advantage of the world-class cultural environment that continues to thrive. To me, New York City is an amazing jewel, poised for entrepreneurial growth. My colleagues and I are extremely enthusiastic about the potential to contribute to Stanford's efforts to build a New York City campus. We look forward to building a vital bridge between Palo Alto and New York City, between Stanford and Roosevelt Island, and between the present and the future.

Jane Chen (CEO & Founder, Embrace) talks about Stanford's unique culture of entrepreneurship + NYC
Noah Weiss (foursquare) on Stanford + NYC
Noah Weiss (pictured above, in the Stanford shirt with his NYC kickball team) is Product Manager at Foursquare. He lives and works in New York City. Noah graduated from Stanford with a B.A. in Science, Technology, and Society.
Everyone agrees more startups could help push NYC's economy beyond its traditional strengths: finance, media, and advertising. An influx of new engineers would help the cause. Fortunately, NYC is already filled with strong engineering programs within its five boroughs and surrounded by universities in the northeast that produce thousands of new engineering grads every year.
Yet still, Silicon Alley continues to live up to its diminutive nickname relative to Silicon Valley. There are no shortage of reasons why, or essays written investigating the topic. One significant explanation is clear just by looking at a map: Silicon valley has Stanford University sitting at the epicenter, whereas NYC is over 3,000 miles away. The university has been just one of many factors in explosion of tech startups (many of which were founded by faculty, alumni, and students) in the last half-century that have sprouted up within a short drive of the campus. But Stanford's unique culture of entrepreneurship, combined with its top ranking engineering programs, has undoubtedly played a major role.
No matter what you study at Stanford, it's hard to graduate without wanting at some point to found a company — or at least work at a fast-growing startup. From freshman orientation when you walk around buildings named after companies founded at Stanford that cover the Nasdaq billboard in Times Square; to junior year when you try to sign up for a class called E145: Technology Entrepreneurship, only to find enrollment is threefold oversubscribed and requires a written application for the privilege of listening to tech CEOs and venture capitalists hold Q&A classes; to the senior year career fairs when the lines next to Google, Facebook, and the latest hot venture back companies dwarf the Fortune 100 stalwarts like GE and Accenture; it is nearly impossible to leave Stanford immune to the startup bug.
I felt that personally after graduating in 2008 when I moved back home to NYC to work for Google. It certainly wasn't a startup at the time, but it was the perfect training ground for learning how I would build my own company. Earlier this year, I left to work at startup born and raised in NYC: foursquare. My next stop a few years from now: founding my own company, hopefully in the city, and likely with a handful of Stanford grads and foursquare alumni.
That's a fairly typical path for computer science grads. It hasn't surprised me to find my engineering classmates working at the top tech companies, from the giants like Google and Microsoft, to fast-growing adolescents like Facebook and Twitter, to startups like Quora and foursquare. I expected that. What has been startling is seeing the friends who moved to NYC to work as strategy consultants and investment bankers — that transcontinental pipeline of talent has been well-honed for years — move in droves to work at local New York startups. From a banker turned data analyst at Yipit, to a strategy consultant turned operations manager at Birchbox, to a management consultant turned venture capitalist associate at Union Square Ventures, the surprise has been my non-technical Stanford friends cutting their salaries in half or more to get a chance to help build a company from scratch. They, too, couldn't escape Stanford's entrepreneurship bug.
As a native New Yorker who could never imagine living further than five minutes from the nearest subway line, I spent years at Stanford selling classmates from all majors on why there's no better place to work than NY in your twenties. Now, as I sit on a flight to San Francisco to help foursquare recruit its next generation of engineers at the exact career fair I stood at four years ago, my task is also to convince students that building a career in tech in NYC is a worthwhile investment.
If Stanford had an engineering and business campus outpost in NYC, my pitch for new grads moving here would be markedly easier. The thousands of highly-trained engineers joining the workforce every year would certainly help. Even more useful would be that Stanford's culture of entrepreneurship would have to travel only a few subway stops instead of a few thousand miles. Foursquare would appreciate the influx of local talent, but the city itself would benefit even more from the droves of companies that would spring up around a StanfordNYC campus.
This Wednesday, I look forward to recruiting as many amazing Stanford engineers as I can from the career fair. I hope that two years from now, I won't have to travel nearly as far.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (News release) -- Senior outside hitter Lola Arslanbekova had 22 kills and 21 digs to lead the University of Louisville to a 3-2 upset win over No. 20 ranked Illinois in the second match of the BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge Saturday evening at Fifth Third Arena in Cincinnati.
"I am so proud of the girls for these two wins because the BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge is a prestigious tournament," said U of L head coach Anne Kordes. " We came so close last year, dropping both matches against Purdue and Illinois in five sets by the narrowest of margins. It just makes it that much more exciting to see the progress we have made. They are putting in the work and playing with such confidence, I am very pleased."
Louisville improves to 8-1 with the 25-18, 23-25, 25-17, 22-25, 15-9 win. The Illini drop to 3-4 and hit .208 but outblocked the Cards 16-9. Kaitlynn James added 12 kills and Gwen Rucker had 11 kills and six blocks to lead the Cards. Illinois was led by Jocelynn Birks, who had 13 kills and two blocks. Lola Arslanbekova and Caitlin Welch were named to the All-BIG EAST/Big Ten Challenge Team.
U of L jumped out to a 12-4 lead and then used .303 hitting to keep the Illini at arm's length. U of L got to within four at 17-13 on a kill by Liz McMahon. But U of L responded immediately with a 5-0 run powered by a kill and an ace by Lola Arslanbekova. U of L also outblocked Illinois 2-0 and the Illini did little to help their own cause with four serving errors.
U of L seemed to keep the momentum in their favor early in the second set when it led 11-7 and forced an Illinois timeout. The Cards then moved to a 20-15 lead but let the Illini loose on a 9-2 run with three blocks down the stretch for the 25-23 win over U of L to even the set count at one apiece. Cardinal hitting cooled to .179 and had trouble hitting around the Illini block. Illinois had seven in second set after recording none in the first. Anna Dorn had five for U of I. Lola Arslanbekova had six kills but was also blocked four times.
U of L popped out to an 8-3 lead early in the third set and then spread the lead to 14-6 and force Illinois to burn its last timeout. The Cards continued to pull away, going up 21-11 but the Illini were not done yet. They blocked Lola three times and Brooke Mattingly had a hitting error as part of a 4-0 run that sparked a U of L timeout. The Cards got to set point on a kill by Kaitlynn James but two straight kills by Morganne Criswell gave the Illini new life. A service error by Jackie Wolfe gave the Cards the 25-17 win. Emily Juhl had four kills to pace the Cards.
The fourth set turned into a see-saw battle with neither team able to gain a foothold as there were 14 ties and five lead changes. U of L took the lead at 22-21 on a Lola Arslanbekova kill but then were outscored 4-0 down the stretch. Illinois hit a torrid .429 and had two blocks.
U of L blew out to an 8-2 lead in the fifth set. Illinois cut the lead to five at 11-5 but the Cards kept the pressure on with a Gwen Rucker block and two straight Lola Arslanbekova kills to win the match.
U of L returns home to host the Louisville Invitational featuring UNLV, Middle Tennessee and Miami (Fla.) Sept. 14-15 in the KFC Yum! Center.

Studio 101 - Art of Dying
See Art of Dying perform their hit single "Sorry" and more in an intimate, acoustic setting!
Growing up in the Canadian Prairies in the '90s, Jonny Hetherington was inspired and elated by the energy and realism of alternative rock bands that mixed equal doses of aggression and melody. However, he didn't really relate to the dark, negative energy and sometimes pessimistic lyrics of many of his favorite groups. So when he and guitarist Greg Bradley formed their own band, Art of Dying, in 2004, they made a conscious effort to be as sonically dynamic as their influences, but approach their songs with a greater sense of optimism.

Kids Grill N.Y.C. Mayor
Bloomberg squirms under the scrutiny of third graders.
During a visit to a New York City public school, Mayor Mike Bloomberg was put in the hot seat from some of the toughest interviewers in the Big Apple--kids. At an elementary school in Harlem, third graders asked Bloomberg if he's rich; the billionaire dodged the question and told the kids he makes $1 per year. Then, another student followed up by asking who he would vote for in the presidential election. The mayor chose to take the fifth with a proper kid-friendly response: "I'm not telling."
I am glad for writing to make you be aware of what a amazing encounter my girl undergone going through your web site. She mastered several pieces, including how it is like to have an awesome coaching spirit to get the others easily gain knowledge of specified advanced topics. You undoubtedly exceeded my expectations. Many thanks for supplying such valuable, trusted, edifying not to mention easy tips about that topic to Lizeth.

I have this case for my macbook pro... twelve south makes the best cases - and the decals for the inside of the laptop are AMAZING !! check their site, they make some great products
Protect you Macbook? Grammar check not working?
To be honest, I don't leave it ON and close the case ever- I don't even do that with my other case, but when its in sleep or just sitting inside it turned on, no not really.
Its a pretty nice case, lots of detail went into it. Definitely not cheaply made and well worth the $.
It's looks great until the librarian files it back on the shelf LOL

Technically the gals turned 5 months on August 28. So this may not be the most timely of posts, but I wanted to share the results of my little photoshoot with them (I'm going to eventually have a photo book of their monthly photos). I have zero photography skills and usually end up using my iPhone, so I'm lucky my subjects are adorable.

Why do we always want to brainstorm new ideas for issues that may already have brilliant solutions begging to be scaled or refined?
Healthcare efficiencies, education reform, getting a handle on the obesity epidemic, (insert pending crisis here) -- it seems I often am invited to give my advice on how to address these HUGE issues in surface, topline ways, usually without even understanding what the real problem is we are trying to solve ("here on this whiteboard, what's your idea for fixing education?"). Is anyone studying what is already out there and what seems to gaining traction?? Who determines the feasibility? Rather than create from scratch, can we build on and help refine or shape ideas that already have equity and momentum and which simply need some fresh thinking or more support to grow? Why does "new" seem more important than "smart"?

V K Madhavan 200+Feb 15 2011: Limited access to information could lead to people not even knowing about the solutions. Further, solutions can in many cases be 'culture' or locale specific thereby requiring a new approach.
Or merely ego! The desire to be an original creator or thinker or problem solver and more importantly to own the solution?
Feb 21 2011: I've also noticed, on a community forum that I'm active with, that the same questions crop up again and again and again. Nobody ever does a search.
So when you say "limited access to information" I think that often "limited willingness to find out what has already been said" would be more true. But, to be fair, wading through thousands of pages of internet chat in order to find what you're looking for is a lot less attractive than asking an expert.
Of course, if someone doesn't have internet access then it's a different story.

Amanda Dornburgh Chapter 6 Problem Set PROTEIN According to Figure 6.1, foods in the Meat, Poultry, Fish, Dry Beans & Nuts Group as well as the Milk, Yogurt and Cheese Group contain the most protein per serving. _____________________ (plant-based food group) is the best overall source of protein. Of the individual plant foods listed, the most concentrated sources of protein are legumes, such as lentils, soybeans, peanuts, black-eyed peas, chickpeas, red beans, pinto beans, kidney beans, and black beans are the most concentrated sources of protein. Protein digestion begins in the stomach, with hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid opens a protein?s folded structure to make them more accessible to enzyme attack. Pepsin is the enzyme that breaks proteins into polypeptides and amino acids. The small intestine breaks polypeptides into smaller peptides, tripeptides, dipeptides, and amino acids through pancreatic protein-digesting enzymes like trypsin and chymotrypsin. Brush border enzymes in the small intestine further break down proteins. Single amino acids and di/tripeptides can be absorbed by the mucosal cells of the small intestine. Inside the mucosal cells, dipeptides and tripeptides are broken down into single amino acids. When amino acids are absorbed, they enter the hepatic portal vein and travel to the liver. The functions of dietary protein in the body are structure and regulation. The two parts of the molecular structure that are found in all amino acids are the carboxylic acid group and the amine group. The chemical composition of amino acids is different from that of carbohydrates and fats because carbohydrates and fats are more efficient energy sources, but amino acids from dietary and body proteins are also used for energy. Each amino acid has a varying side chain, which gives it different properties. The difference between essential and nonessential amino acids are that essential amino acids cannot be made by the body, and therefore must come from the diet, while nonessential amino acids can be made in the body. Most of the nonessential amino acids are made through transamination. These nonessential amino acids are made when an amino group from one amino acid is transferred to a C-compound. There are about 20 amino acids found in proteins: of these 20 amino acids, 9 cannot be made by the body, and are essential. Conditionally essential amino acids are essential only under certain conditions. The sources of the amino acids in this pool are body protein and dietary protein. Amino acids are lost from this pool through deamination, which is usually irreversible. Dipeptides are two amino acids linked with a peptide bond; tripeptides are when 3 amino acids are linked with a peptide bond; polypeptides are when many amino acids are bonded together. An amino acid?s side chain provides proteins with their unique characteristics. Protein synthesis occurs within the cell, and is directed through the blueprint of DNA. Within the nucleus, transcription occurs: transcription is the process of copying the information in DNA to a molecule of mRNA. mRNA then links to the ribosomes, ,which catalyze the peptide bond. Translation is the process of translating the RNA code into the amino acid sequence of a protein. Transfer RNA (tRNA) identifies individual amino acids, and binds to the code on the mRNA. The ribosome complex turns two individual amino acids into a dipeptide. A limiting amino acid is when an essential amino acid is available in the lowest concentration in relation to the body?s needs. Limiting amino acids slow the process of protein synthesis down. Structural proteins are used for structure in the skin and connecting tissue. Skin, hair, and muscle are made largely of protein. The most abundant of the structural proteins is collagen, which is a long fibrous protein. The seven roles for regulatory proteins are (1) enzymes, (2) transporters, (3) defense proteins, (4) contractile/motile proteins, (5) hormones, (6) fluid, (7) pH balance. An example of an enzyme is pepsin ? it catalyzes a reaction through breaking proteins into polypeptides and amino acids. An example of a transporter is hemoglobin: the protein in red blood cells, which picks up oxygen in the lungs and transports it to other organs of the body. An example of a defense protein is skin, which is made up primarily of protein, and is the first barrier against infection and injury. Examples of contractile proteins are actin and myosin, which function in the contraction of muscles. Examples of protein hormones are insulin and glucagon. _____________________________________ (what types of nonprotein molecules) are made from amino acids. Amino acids are used in the synthesis of these molecules because _____________________________________________ Before an amino acid can be used for fuel, it must be deaminated to remove the nitrogen. The nitrogen is converted by the liver into urea? which is excreted in the urine. The carbon skeletons are used to generate ATP in mitochondrion. If your diet contains excess total energy and excess protein, excess amino acids will be converted to glucose or fatty acids. Potential negative implications of consuming a diet that contains a large excess of protein is weight gain, from the conversion of glucose and/or fatty acids. Supplementation with individual amino acids could be problematic to health because unbalanced amino acid intake can disrupt overall amino acid transport. Protein-energy malnutrition is wasting and/or edema, increases one?s susceptibility to infection, and is found primarily in developing countries. The two major types of protein malnutrition are kwashiorkor and marasmus. Kwashiorkor is characterized by an accumulation of fluids in the stomach. There is not enough protein coming in. Protein in the blood is called albumin, which cannot be made without enough dietary protein coming in. Therefore, there is an accumulation of fluids in the stomach, hands, feet, etc. Marasmus is when there is too little energy coming in and not enough protein. It is characterized by almost no lean mass. The typical dietary protein intake for Americans is 15% of energy. The RDA for protein for adult males is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. It is the same for adult females. RDA for protein decreases with life stage. The populations that are at highest risk for deficiency are children in developing countries. Children have the highest RDA for protein, set at 1.52 g/kg of body weight at birth and only decreasing to 1.1 g/kg of body weight by the time a child is 3. When nitrogen output exceeds nitrogen intake, there is a net loss of body protein, which can result in illness. When nitrogen intake exceeds nitrogen output, there is a positive nitrogen balance, when the total body protein increases: this decreases protein breakdown, and occurs during pregnancy. Moderate exercise _______________________ protein needs. Protein quality is a measure of how efficiently a protein in the diet can be used to make body proteins. Foods of animal origin supply essential amino acids in the proper proportions for human use. On the other hand, plant foods contain proteins that don?t provide all the amino acids in the proper proportions required for protein synthesis in humans, and are therefore said to be incomplete. This affects vegetarians, and especially vegans, because they eliminate some or all animal products, which eliminates the intake of essential amino acids. An amino acid score is a measure of protein quality determined by comparing the amount of the limiting amino acid in a food with that in a reference protein. A reference food is ____________________________. The amino acid score is improved when you adjust for digestibility of proteins by adjusting the amino acid score for digestibility. Protein complementation is used for vegetarian diets. It combines proteins from different sources so that they collectively provide the proportions of amino acids required to meet needs.

Christopher Heine | July 26, 2011 | Comments
Peter McGuinness talks marketing and wraps up Gotham run.
If you want clues on how new DDB Chicago CEO Peter McGuinness will run his company, he says to take a look at the "ground up" work his Gotham team has recently done with Denny's "Always Open" and Chobani Yogurt's "Real Love Stories" campaigns. In both cases, the creative veteran said, digital and social marketing were irreplaceable in driving the brands to new heights, particularly with younger consumers.
"Chobani sold out of product and asked us to quit advertising [three weeks early]," he told ClickZ News. "If there are holes to fill [at DDB Chicago], we are going to fill them and fill them quickly. Digital is no longer a nice-to-do. It's a have-to-do."
On how his new agency's digital/social campaigns may change after he gets to DDB Chicago, McGuiness added, "I haven't gotten there to assess things or [develop] a vision just yet. With evolution in digital, there's always work to be done. You do what's needed in order to be first-rate and competitive. I also don't want to have a digital practice just for the sake of having a digital practice. I want a credible digital case we can explode our clients' business with, as well as use to win a ton of new business."
He was announced this morning to replace Rick Carpenter, who was asked to step down as DDB Chicago CEO in December after 22 years with the company. Following three years serving as chairman-CEO at Interpublic Group-owned Gotham in New York and several other years stationed abroad, McGuinness spoke about taking on the advertising scene in the Windy City, where he was born, before moving to New Jersey as a child.
"I think it will round me out," he explained. "If you are going to make a move, you should make one that is totally and completely different. It will be interesting. While some of the challenges are similar to Gotham, in terms of what DDB Chicago needs, there's a lot that's very different about it."
While details are not final, he said, the transition into his DDB executive role would occur in around a month. "I've spent three years of blood, sweat, and tears on this place," McGuiness said, addressing his time at Gotham. "And I quite like it as an agency. I will stay as long as I'm needed."
After landing in Chicago, the CEO will work with the agency's chief creative officer Ewan Paterson and recently appointed chief digital officer Jonathan Sackett.
