Career Center
Recent Alumni Spotlight: Eli Fabens
April 02, 2012
Oreninc, Vancouver, Washington
The folks in 3CE recently caught up with Eli Fabens to hear more about his experiences working at Oreninc, an independent financial services provider for companies, institutions, and investors in the junior commodities space. Eli, originally from Ithaca, New York, graduated from Lewis & Clark in May 2011 with a degree in Economics.
Q: What is your job title? Can you tell us a bit about your day-to-day experience?
I currently work for a small startup, Oreninc, and because of this my job title is fairly flexible however Research Analyst or Director of Research is what I would say if forced into a box. On a day-to-day basis, I create reports for clients, work with my co-workers on new product development, and do research for other company projects. One thing is definitely true, few days are rarely the same and are never boring.…
3CE: How did you find out about this opportunity?
EF: During my senior year, I did a lot of networking. I spoke with everyone on campus that I knew well to see who might know someone that would have and possibilities for me. I got a lot of good feedback and a variety of different opportunities came up and in the end Oren Inc. was what worked out.
3CE: What do value about your L&C liberal arts education now that you're out there in life beyond college?
EF: The liberal arts education and L&C required me to think beyond just the most obvious answer and to try and dig deeper when finding solutions. This has been critical in my current position because sometimes the first answer is not the best or most useful answer for our clients.
3CE: What job search advice would you give seniors and other recent grads?
EF: People want to help you find jobs and help you network. You will never learn about the opportunities if you don't ask. Lewis & Clark has all sorts of resources including 3CE but also beyond. Make connections with people, personal networks fostered on campus were my greatest asset in finding a position after college.
3CE: What would you tell students, if anything, about 3CE?
EF: 3CE provides a lot of different services and ways to think about finding career opportunities but it still requires a lot of work on the part of the student. It is never too early to talk with 3CE and use their resources to begin working on pursuing opportunities.

AOL sings soothing profit lullaby to nervous investors
But advertising's going down the toilet, says shareholder
AOL has moved to quieten down investors after activist shareholders Starboard Value LP accused the web biz of making "staggering" losses in its traditional areas and sinking money in unproven new ventures.
Starboard has just bought a 4.5 per cent stake in the company, according to Reuters, and promptly criticised AOL for a crash in display advertising revenue and its investment in little enterprises, such as local journalism initiative Patch. AOL lost as much as $500 million last year in its display advertising business, an area where it faces stiff competition from Google and Facebook.
Responding today in the WSJ, AOL said it had cut costs, sold noncore assets and made "significant investments for our future" during the past two years.
AOL's share price today stands at $15.13, down from a yearly high of $24.91 in January.
Though AOL's content business was looking hopeful, said Starboard CEO Jeffrey Smith, investors still see their legacy dial-up internet businesses as the cash cow of the company, ascribing almost all of AOL's value to its 3 million dial-up subscribers.
"This valuation discrepancy is primarily due to the company's massive operating losses in its display business, as well as continued concern over further acquisitions and investments into money-losing growth initiatives like Patch," he said in the missive.
Between the end of 2009 and 2010, AOL has seen revenues fall from $3.1bn to $2.3bn. This contributed to a reduction in the bottom line from a gain of $248.8m to a loss of $782.5m. ®

MIAMI (AP) — Denia Zelaya arrived early at the Miami International Airport. She had last seen her eldest daughter nearly 10 years earlier, when she'd kissed a sleeping Anita and then slipped out of her family's house.
"I didn't tell her goodbye," she recalls. "I knew if she awoke, I couldn't leave."
Anita was 6, her younger sister, Nicole, not yet 3. But Zelaya had made a choice: to flee the violent gangs in her native Honduras and come to the U.S. to find work. The plan was to save enough for a smuggler and then send for her children when they were old enough to endure the journey.
This past April, Nicole, now 12, made it safely across the Texas border and on to Miami. That inspired 16-year-old Anita to attempt the trip with her own child, 3-year-old Emily.
At the airport late last month, Zelaya worried she might not recognize her daughter. Then her eyes locked on a figure hauling a toddler on her hip. As the girl approached, Zelaya saw her mirror image: large hazel eyes, corkscrew curls and a tentative smile. Zelaya pulled daughter and granddaughter into her small frame. Anita buried her face into her mother's hair. A lone cry burst from her throat.
They are just one family — in some ways, one of the luckiest. As thousands of Central American children have come across the Southwest border these past months — fleeing violence, searching for loved ones and looking to start anew in the U.S. — this family found each other again. But now there's a complex legal system to navigate, new economic burdens and an unfamiliar home.
Then there's the delicate task of learning to become a family again, with the knowledge looming that their reunion in the U.S. could be temporary — more likely to end with deportation orders than asylum.
Zelaya herself lives here illegally. She spent the last decade working in restaurants and, more recently, busing tables at an airport hotel.
When she fled La Ceiba, Honduras, after witnessing the gang-killing of a nephew, Zelaya left Anita and Nicole first with her sister and then their great-grandmother. But without their mother, the children struggled. They were shuttled between relatives, often unable to go to school. The money Zelaya sent never lasted long.
"There were so many Christmases I couldn't celebrate, because when I saw so many people hug each other I would just go cry and go to bed," Anita recalls.
In Miami, Zelaya decorated her bedroom walls with pictures of her children, even as she started a new life here. She had two American-born children: Elise, now 5, and David, 4. She spoke frequently by phone with Nicole and Anita, but often the calls left Zelaya in tears.
"I just focused on working so one day I could bring them here," she says.
Then gang violence struck again. According to Anita and Zelaya, Anita was 13 when she was raped by gang members. They continued to harass her after Emily was born 9 months later. Anita says she went to the police but doesn't believe they filed any official report.
Zelaya was devastated and offered to help. Still, Anita refused to make the journey to the U.S. until her younger sister did it.
Initially, Anita and Emily were detained in McAllen, Texas, and placed in a Department of Homeland Security facility with other apprehended minors. Soon they were flown to a nonprofit shelter in New York before finally reaching Zelaya.
The first few nights after Anita arrived, the girls and their mother cooked together with a quiet precision as if they'd been doing it all their lives. They convinced Zelaya to sleep with them in the small bedroom all five children shared. Two weeks later, Zelaya had returned to her room, and the three took turns cooking. Meanwhile, old resentments remained.
Ever since Elise and David were born, Anita had accused Zelaya of replacing her and Nicole with the new American children.
"I try to explain to the older ones that the younger ones need protection because they are still little," Zelaya said one day.
"We do too," Anita cut in, only half in jest.
Anita looks forward to starting school but worries about catching up with her peers. Zelaya tries not to burden her children with her own fears. Unemployed since getting laid off in December, she relies on help from her boyfriend while she looks for new work. Now she owes thousands of dollars to smugglers. She also knows that the legal path for her children will be far from easy.
Local attorneys are helping the girls pro bono but warn obtaining asylum based on gang threats is no easy task, especially without concrete evidence. Zelaya also faces the threat of being found and deported.
On a recent rainy Monday afternoon, the family headed to the grocery store. Men stared as they walked by, their gaze lingering on Anita and Nicole.
Zelaya worries about Anita, who has shared her story with reporters and social workers — each time, withdrawing into herself.
But as the group crossed a puddle, little David offered a welcome distraction.
"Swing me, Mami," he clamored. "Us too," chimed in Elise and Emily.
Zelaya, Anita and Nicole clasped their hands and began to swing the little ones. The children squealed, and soon Zelaya and the older girls laughed too, attached in one familial chain — oblivious for a moment to the rain.

Amazon green-lights in-app purchasing for Android
Whacks down another plank in Googleplex assault
Amazon has enabled in-application billing for Android apps sold through its US Appstore, though it's reserving the right to control the amount punters end up paying.
Amazon's In-App Purchasing API has been in beta for a while, but now any application can throw up an "insert coin to continue" dialogue linked directly to the user's 1-Click account. Developers get 70 per cent of their asking price, but Amazon reserves the right to muck about with the amount users get charged.
Amazon will control the retail price of the content, as it does the price of the applications themselves, in contrast to other app stores, which allow developers to set the final price. When Amazon changes the price of an app, the developer gets 70 per cent of that price, though always at least 20 per cent of what they asked for. For in-app purchases developers are guaranteed 70 per cent of their suggested retail price, even if Amazon changes the label.
Amazon wants that flexibility so if can offer promotional discounts or bundled applications – something Google or Apple would have a terrible time doing as they'd have to negotiate with each developer. Amazon's approach has upset some, but developers don't have to join and most vitriol has been directed at the daily free app which sits outside these rules.
Competing app stores have had in-application billing for a while now, mostly to enable the increasingly popular freemium model which allows a user to try out a basic application and upgrade to a full version at the press of a button. In-game expansions, such as the Mighty Eagle – which obliterates egg-stealing pigs at a swoop – haven't proved as revolutionary as expected, though the market is still developing.
Amazon's flagship Kindle, the Android-based 'Fire, is locked into Amazon's own store, and so has been lacking in-app purchasing until now. But Amazon has also had success inducing other Android users to download its store, notably through the aforementioned daily free app.
Right now that store is still US only, but the Kindle Fire is scheduled for a UK launch at the end of April and will, presumably, come with the Amazon Appstore too. So by the start of May we should be able to pay Amazon for in-app purchases on this side of the pond too. ®

Brad talks marriage, George just talks
Rag on the Academy all you want. And yet the Academy still manages to elicit the most intense emotions, arguments, and debates. About MOVIES. As long as people work in the movies, and that includes the actors who act in them, the producers who produce them, the directors, the writers, and also the critics who review them, they will care about the Oscar. And if they still care about the Oscar, the Oscar will still be relevant, no matter how often, year after year, these tempestuous critics call for the demise of the Academy. Who do you think is holding up the Academy? When Brad Pitt and George Clooney are running around town, bending over for an Oscar at every opportunity, who do you think is holding up the Academy???
Earlier this month, it was Clooney slapping his face on the cover of any magazine that would have him, dragging his new girl onto every carpet. Now itΓÇÖs Brad PittΓÇÖs turn. To make sure the industry and the voters know that, like his friend George, he too is an actor AND a producer - for Moneyball and Tree of Life - and more importantly, a CHAMPION of film, the kind of man who wants to make interesting, relevant movies, who will stop at nothing to see them to the screen, the way he did with Moneyball, throwing his immense weight behind the project, even when it was almost dead, so that it could eventually see a triumphant, box-office winning release.
How many times have you heard this story now? He has been telling it for months. Or theyΓÇÖve been telling it for him for months. And in the next month it needs to fully absorb, if Pitt and Moneyball are to have any chance (Sony hopes) of winning at all. Which is why...
It never hurts to complement a ΓÇ£seriousΓÇ¥ message, about BradΓÇÖs commitment to great filmmaking, with a juicy gossipy one about his desire to marry his lady.
Did the smell of his Campaign just punch you in the face? Totally. TOTALLY. And this is the excerpt, the BIG QUOTE, that everyone has been fixating on - dangling marriage in exchange for a few Oscar votes, Brad comes close, the closest heΓÇÖs ever come, to guaranteeing it:
ΓÇ£WeΓÇÖd actually like to (get married),ΓÇ¥ he says of his seven-year partner, Jolie, ΓÇ£and it seems to mean more and more to our kids. We made this declaration some time ago that we werenΓÇÖt going to do it till everyone can. But I donΓÇÖt think weΓÇÖll be able to hold out. It means so much to my kids, and they ask a lot. And it means something to me, too, to make that kind of commitment.ΓÇ¥ Has he asked Jolie to marry him? ΓÇ£IΓÇÖm not going to go any further,ΓÇ¥ says Pitt. ΓÇ£But to be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.ΓÇ¥
Is it obvious?
Of course itΓÇÖs obvious.
Do I love it?
Of course I love it.
Brad Pitt is going for broke in a 5 page interview with The Hollywood Reporter, a publication now run by the former editor in chief of Us Weekly, blatantly selling his personal life, in the kind of move normally reserved for the Albas and the Biels of the world, because he wants that trophy SO badly. So badly heΓÇÖs even down with cameras rolling during the photo shoot.
But he looks really, really good, non?
The full article is an interesting read. ThereΓÇÖs nothing super new to be learned, but this is a Brad that is certainly much more accessible - conveniently - than weΓÇÖve seen in a while. Also, I have to give him some love on the way he concluded that comment about marriage, bringing it back to an issue of equality:
ΓÇ£But to be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.ΓÇ¥
It IS ludicrous.
And why THE F-CK is this still an issue???
So thereΓÇÖs Brad, appealing to the gay demographic in addition to the MiniVan Majority, while publicly conceding that ΓÇ£George should win everythingΓÇ¥, and secretly hoping for an Oscar day upset. Question is: Is it enough? Best Actor, right now, is George ClooneyΓÇÖs to lose. And the way George Clooney is behaving, he doesnΓÇÖt think he has it locked up either.
Have you seen the Newsweek Oscar roundtable? Most of you emailing me about the interview and the clips have focused on the chemistry between Charlize Theron and Michael Fassbender. Not interested, sorry. What I noticed most was George Clooney.
He talks when itΓÇÖs about him, when itΓÇÖs not about him, when someone else is talking, when no when else is talking...
George is TRYING. Like, VISIBLY trying. IΓÇÖll attach the 10 videos below. Come back on your lunch hour if you have time and watch him insert himself into every topic of discussion. The others, youΓÇÖll note, especially Tilda Swinton (who is the best, BEST part of it all), manage to stay quiet often and JUST LISTEN to their peers much of the time. George?
You donΓÇÖt go a minute without hearing from George. Here are his key messages:
1.I love movies. I make movies. Good movies. ThatΓÇÖs all I care about.
2.I will never forget where I came from.
3.Art is important.
4.I respect the Academy.
HeΓÇÖs working so hard, itΓÇÖs almost...endearing.
But celebrities, they LOVE to gossip too, donΓÇÖt they? See how they light up when theyΓÇÖre recalling the Adrien Brody story?

Former shelter dog credited with saving 3-year-old girl
DELTA, Mich. (WPBN/WGTU) - A former shelter dog is now being credited with saving the life of a 3-year-old girl.
Petunia, now named Peanut, arrived at the Delta Animal Shelter in April 2016 with two broken legs, a belly full of carpet and broken ribs. The shelter says the injuries all happened at different times.
The shelter says Peanut is now healed and her former owner was recently convicted of animal abuse.
Peanut now has a new chance at life and is being credited with saving a 3-year-old girl's life.
According to the Delta County Sheriff's Office, the 3-year-old girl was found lying naked in a ditch on Friday around 11:15 a.m. in the Rapid River area. The temperature at the time was around 32 degrees.
Deputies say a man's dog, identified as Peanut, noticed the child in the ditch. The man then found the girl and wrapped her in his shirt and rushed her back to his house in an attempt to warm the child.
Deputies say the uninjured girl was transported to St. Francis Hospital by U.P. Health Systems.
We're told deputies went door to door in an attempt to find the girl's parents. The parents were eventually located at a nearby house.
Further investigation found unsafe and unsanitary living conditions at the house, deputies say.
Deputies say Child Protective Services was contacted and the 3-year-old girl along with another young girl were removed from the house.
The case has been sent to the Delta County Prosecutor's Office for review.
Here's the story the shelter posted:
Dear Shelter,
I must share a heartfelt story about how wonderful our little Peanut has been! She has truly been a blessing to our family and we love having her around. As you know, her background was so heartbreaking and we are so happy that we were able to take her into our home and give her the love and the family she deserves. However, I think she still has some "sixth sense" about her past life that she has carried with her.
Today, Peanut was responsible for saving the life of a 3 year old little girl. About 11am this morning, Peanut started going crazy at our house. She was running up and down the stairs, barking and yelping. She then went and got my husband, who was in the garage working on some projects, and alerted him that she wanted to go outside. He said he could hear her running around upstairs but didn't understand why. He let her outside where she went barreling into the field behind our house at full speed. My husband followed her and to his surprise, he found a naked, shivering, 3 year old girl curled up in a ball. He scooped her up, wrapped her in his sweatshirt, and brought her inside. He called 911 and reported the incident. By the time the ambulance and police arrived, the little girl could only say one thing – "doggie."
Thanks to Peanut, a little girls life was saved today. She has been such a blessing to us, and now to others. Words cannot express how grateful we are that we have Peanut in our lives and how amazing she is. She is a part of our family now and thanks to wonderful people like you at the shelter, she is alive. Without her, not only would she have been gone from this world, but the life of this little girl might have been taken as well.

How to Update Sony Drivers by Yourself?
There are numerous of common alerts as well as other messages which you might get in the driver upgrading process, several of which I've paraphrased and listed here together with advice on what to do:
Windows cannot verify that the driver is compatible: If you're sure this driver is the right one, touch or click Yes to continue installing it. If you think you might have the driver for the wrong model or something like that, in which case you should look for other INF files or maybe an entirely different driver download, choose No.
To update driver for SONY VGN-NR32L/S using Windows Update.
You can check Windows Update any time to see if it's found updated drivers for your hardware, especially if you recently installed a new device. Then, you can install the updated drivers. Here's how:
- Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type Update, and then, in the list of results, click Windows Update.
- In the left pane, click Check for updates. If there are any available updates, click the links to see more information about each update. Windows Update tells you if an update is important, recommended, or optional. Each type of update might include drivers for SONY VGN-NR32L/S.
- On the Select the updates you want to install page, look for updates for your SONY VGN-NR32L/S, select the check box for each driver that you want to install, and then click OK. There might not be any available driver updates.
- On the Windows Update page, click Install updates. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. Windows Update will tell you if the updates were successfully installed.

Friday, September 30, 2011
Anyway, the only appointment I could get was at 10:00am, which means that Cal missed the morning at school, and when I saw what time it would be by the time I dropped him back off (after lunch, halfway through recess, with only two hours left before dismissal) I decided to just get his assignments from his teacher and keep him the rest of the day for some quality time, just him and me. It's something we don't get to do very often. We need to do it more.
The fact of it is, although I talk about Cal much more on this blog (first pass effect, I guess), Mack actually much more attention from me when I'm home. The thing it is that Mack is little, and just in terms of the activities of daily living, he needs a lot more minute-to-minute maintenance, whereas Cal I can just tell to go do his homework or go read a book or please wash your hands and get ready for dinner. He's pretty well-behaved too, which means that for the most part, he doesn't need me on top of him for every single last detail. Which is good of course, but when you work a lot and have two kids, I think it sometimes means he gets less actual time with me outside of the purely purpose driven tasks and me prodding him to hit all the points he needs to hit before bedtime each night.
Yesterday, we went to the dentist. Then I took him out for lunch at Five Guys Burgers and we stopped by Staples to pick up one of those plastic report covers for a school project due next week before finally heading home. The dentist, burgers, and a plastic report cover. But just him and me. Cal told me later that it was one of the best days ever.
I told him we'd do it again soon.

Thanks for posting this. I'm a psychotherapist, and when I work with families, I try to get people to think about spending "special time" with each pair in the family. (Each parenting figure + each kid person, regardless of legal/official terms.) People sometimes don't want to, because of difficulty/expense, but *this* is what I'm talking about!ReplyDelete
I know, I wish the adult dentist was like that too!ReplyDelete
I was catching up on your blog last night instead of going to sleep, and then got TOTALLY distracted searching for pens. And I think Cal might need this: http://www.jetpens.com/Pilot-FriXion-Color-Pencil-Like-Erasable-Gel-Ink-Pen-0.7-mm-24-Color-Set/pd/3688ReplyDelete

Theme is 'Small town fun - circa 1950'
Visitors to this year's Newburg Day, scheduled for Saturday, June 8, will be transported back to the 1950s.
Planning is underway for the annual event, which will have a theme of "Small town fun - circa 1950."
Pat Adams, this year's Newburg Day Committee chairwoman, invites the community to come out and enjoy a day, which will feature a parade, craft vendors, demonstrations, music, food and family-friendly games and competitions.
Among the new things this year will be trophies awarded to parade entries for the following categories: Newburg Day's Best, Mayor's Choice and Honorable Mention.
Adams asks that all parade entrants submit a request to participate form, which is available online at http://newburgday.weebly.com. The forms must be turned in to Adams by the end of May along with an entry fee of $5. All parade entries must make some attempt at representing the theme.
The parade will kick off the day's festivities at 10 a.m. and will follow the same route as last year, Adams said.
One big change this year is that there will be no parking allowed on Highway T between Fifth and Front streets June 8 to avoid accidents and injuries.
Another change this year involves the Newburg Day Pageant, which will be held several weeks before Newburg Day. The pageant will take place Saturday, May 18, at 1 p.m. at the Newburg United Methodist Church.
Contestants are being sought in the following categories: Little Mr. and Miss - ages 5-8, Junior Mr. and Miss - ages 9-12, and King and Queen - ages 13-18. Stacie Nash, who is this year's pageant coordinator, can be reached at 573-466-9312 for more information.
One of the entertainment highlights at this year's Newburg Day will be Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe impersonators Rich Vickers and Tammy Vickers. They will perform at 12:30 p.m. and 3 p.m. at the Lyric Theater.
Donations will be accepted at the door and proceeds will benefit the Lyric Theater and the Newburg Day Committee.
There will be music and entertainment at the gazebo and the courtyard from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets for a 50/50 raffle can be purchased by any committee member or at the Old Town Antique swap meet Saturday, June 1.
Also new this year — a silent auction will replace the auction normally held at the gazebo. Items in the silent auction will be on display at the Newburg United Methodist Church from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
The Newburg Fire Department also will have a car bash throughout the day and there will be food and activities offered by local churches.
The committee is also looking for food and craft vendors. For more information on vendors, contact Shane Lewis at 573-578-5200. Vendors will be set up at the gazebo and on Water Street.
While vendors will have their own games, parents and children who want to play the Newburg Day Committee games must purchase tickets at information booths.
Volunteers also are being sought on the Newburg Day website, http://newburgday.weebly.com
Adams also encourages people to pre-order their Newburg Day T-shirts by May 15. The shirts will have the same design as last year, Adams said. More information can be found online.

A space exiled Superdoom has an internal debate about "letting go" in "Superman/Wonder Woman" No. 10. (Paulo Siqueira / DC Entertainment)Link
The "Superman/Wonder Woman" series was meant to explore the new couple's burgeoning relationship, but between battling General Zod and Faora and contending with the Man of Steel's worsening Doomsday mutation, the nascent lovebirds haven't had much time for romance as of late.
And if the preview of the new issue is any indication, it will still be a while before the two get much in the way of alone time.
Hero Complex readers can check out pages from "Superman/Wonder Woman" No. 10 in the gallery above or by clicking on the links below.
Cover | Karl Kerschl variant cover | Page 1 | Page 2-3 | Page 4-5
The issue continues the "Superman: Doomed" crossover story in which, after a battle with Doomsday, the Man of Steel undergoes an agonizing mutation into Superdoom, a Doomsday-like creature who most recently has found himself exiled in space as an enemy of the state.
Wrestling with his Clark Kent-embodied conscience who is attempting to will away the mutation, Superdoom has come under attack from the Red Lanterns, who only cease their assault on the damaged and deranged version of the Man of Steel due to Wonder Woman's intercession.
As evidenced by the early pages of Issue No. 10, the drama will continue in space, with Lana Lang and Steel racing to get a message to the embattled, mutated hero.
In an interview with Hero Complex earlier this year, "Superman/Wonder Woman" writer Charles Soule said that exploring the legendary heroes' love affair was of primary interest.
"It's a really nice angle into them as human beings … as opposed to these godlike characters who have basically infinite power. So it's a way to make them relatable and it's a way to put them in new situations that we may not have necessarily seen them in before. Those are really the things that attracted me to the project in the beginning, and I've tried to bear that out in the scripts."
"Superman/Wonder Woman" No. 10 hits stores Wednesday.

VALLETTA, Malta (AP) — Maltese head to the polls Saturday to decide whether to grant the center-right Nationalist Party a fourth straight term or give the opposition a shot at government after 15 years.
The ruling Nationalist Party has campaigned on its strong employment record, with Malta boasting Europe's lowest unemployment rate of 4.3 percent. Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi, 59, also has promised more education and health spending and lower income taxes.
The opposition Labor Party, led by Joseph Muscat, 39, has pledged to reduce water and electricity rates, a major bone of contention in the past legislature, along with greater civil liberties, less bureaucracy and action to fight corruption.
Some 330,000 Maltese are eligible to vote between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. Results are expected Sunday afternoon.

Lexus has long been rumored to be developing a small crossover, and Toyota's luxury arm has revealed a first look at what it has in store.
The automaker on Wednesday previewed the LF-NX, a compact crossover concept it will debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show on Sept. 10.
The concept hints at a vehicle that Lexus hopes to use to get a slice of a fast-growing segment that includes the BMW X1, the forthcoming Mercedes-Benz GLA, Audi's Q3, and even the Infiniti Q30 concept that will also debut in Frankfurt.
PHOTOS: The Lexus LF-NX concept
Though the LF-NX concept wears uber-angular sheet metal and an extreme take on the spindle grille Lexus has been fitting to its lineup recently, expect a much more tame look when the production model rolls out in the future.
PHOTOS: Highlights of the 2013 Frankfurt show
Lexus didn't divulge any details on just what exactly will move this vehicle, saying only that the concept has a new hybrid drive train "tuned for SUV performance."
This Lexus joins other Frankfurt world debuts such as the aforementioned Mercedes and Infiniti vehicles, as well as a Jaguar concept crossover, the Volvo Concept Coupe, and the BMW i8 plug-in hybrid super car. The Frankfurt Auto Show press days will be Sept. 10 and 11.

Spiced Gløgg with Port Wine and Cointreau
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: This is a recipe that I created when we lived in Copenhagen, and I wanted to come up with a version of Gløgg that would wow my in-laws and Danish friends. Gløgg is a Scandinavian specialty served during the Christmas season, similar to spiced mulled wine or vin chaud. The difference with my recipe is that it's extra-fortified with port wine, Cointreau and rum-soaked raisins. The key is to first make a reduction with the port, Cointreau and orange juice. This becomes the base to the gløgg, adding depth and a mellow sweetness without overly sugary, cloying results. The addition of rum-soaked raisins and toasted almonds at the end almost qualifies this beverage as food. Be sure to add some of the liqueur from the raisins for extra fortification. - TasteFood —TasteFood
Food52 Review: Glogg is essentially mulled wine and this is such a well-thought out version. TasteFood adds Port and Cointreau, which enrich the red wine and soften its coarse edges, and the orange and spices, simmered into the alcohol, give the punch depth without exhausting you with too many aromas. Drink this soon after making, as it doesn't reheat well. But we doubt it will last that long anyhow. Cheers! - A&M —The Editors
Serves: 8-10 servings
cup raisins
cup rum (or Cointreau)
cup whole almonds
1 1/2
cups Port wine
cup freshly squeezed orange juice
cup Cointreau or Gran Marnier
cup dark brown sugar, packed
Zest of 2 oranges, cut in strips
whole cloves
cinnamon sticks
bottles full-bodied red wine
- Combine raisins and rum in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature at least 2 hours. (Raisins can be prepared up to one week in advance. Cover and refrigerate until use.)
- Toast the almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Cool slightly. Coarsely chop in large pieces. Reserve.
- Combine port wine, orange juice, Cointreau, brown sugar, orange zest, cloves and cinnamon in in a large pot with a lid. Bring to a boil and cook uncovered until reduced to 2 cups, 10-12 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Add red wine and warm through with the lid on the pot. Do not boil.
- To serve, add a spoonful each of raisins with liqueur and almonds to glasses or mugs. Strain gløgg into glasses. Garnish with fresh orange slices.

Despite the large range and flexibility of this species, population density is very low and is restricted to isolated fragments. There is a suspected population reduction of ≥50% in this species over a three generation period (36 years, estimating the generation length to be 12 years). This time period includes some time in both the past and the future. Causes of this reduction (which have not ceased) include continuing decline in area, extent and quality of habitat, and exploitation through unsustainable levels of hunting. Based on these premises, the species is listed as Endangered.

|Range Description:
|The Ring-tailed Lemur is found in the dry forests and bush of southern and southwestern Madagascar. The north-western boundary is north of the Mangoky River at Belo sur Mer or Mahababoky. The south-eastern limit ends at the divide between the western and eastern watersheds, which is aligned with the division between western dry and eastern humid vegetation types. All records from the Andohahela National Park are from the extreme western portion, at the ecotone between dry and humid forests. The north-eastern limit is more complex; the most north-easterly site is Ankafina, but this is from an animal collected in 1881 (see Goodman et al. 2006). A seemingly isolated population also occurs at altitudes up to 2,600 m in the mountains of Andringitra on the south-eastern plateau (Goodman and Langrand 1996, Yoder et al. 1999). Throughout the range of this species, its distribution is best described as patchy.

|Despite L. catta's flexibility, individuals are now largely restricted to completely isolated or relatively isolated fragments throughout their geographic range, and overall population densities are considered low (Sussman et al. 2003). The following lists population counts and/or densities at sites where L. catta populations have recently been counted. These sites represent only a fraction of the geographic range, yet give a 'snapshot' of the status of some of the L. catta populations in 2012 and illustrate that the overall population of this lemur is low, and that most populations occur in small fragmented forests (Gould unpublished report 2012).
In Berenty Reserve, the population density is 2.5 individuals/ha in the gallery forest, 5.0 individuals/ha at the tourist front, and 1.3 individuals/ha in the scrub and spiny forest (Jolly et al. 2002, 2006; Koyama et al. 2002; Pride 2005; Gould et al. 2011). A total number of 280 individuals in approximately 20 ha have been counted in Berenty Reserve (Razafindramanana 2011, Jolly et al. 2006).
In the Bealoka fragment, the population density is 1.67 individuals/ha (Razafindramanana 2011). A total number of 167 individuals in approximately 100 ha have been counted in this fragment (Razafindramanana 2011).
In Cap Ste. Marie, the population density is approximately 0.017 individuals/ha (Kelley 2011).
In Tsimanampetsotsa National Park, the population density is 0.10 individuals/ha. 2 groups inhabit a 195 ha area of the park (LaFleur 2012). 11 groups have been counted, though the total number of individuals is unknown (M. LaFleur pers. comm.).
In Beza Mahafaly Reserve, the population density is 0.23 individuals/ha. A population density of 1.3 individuals/ha has been recorded in Parcel 1 of the Reserve. In 2001, 104 individuals were counted in a 80 ha area (Parcel 1 of the Reserve) (Gould et al. 2003). In 2006, 225 individuals were counted in a 980 ha area (Sauther and Cuozzo 2008).
In Anja Community Reserve, the population density is 6.6 individuals/ha. In 2010, 225 individuals in a 34 ha area were counted (Cameron and Gould 2013, Gould and Gabriel 2013).
In Tsaranoro forest, the population density is 1.13 individuals/ha. In 2010, 60 individuals in a 53 ha area were counted (Cameron and Gould in press, Gould and Gabriel 2013).
In Andranobe village reserve, the population density is 1 individual/ha. In 2010, approximately 30 individuals were counted in a 30 ha area (L. Gould unpublished data).
In the Ambatotsirongorongo fragment, the population density is 1.5 individuals/ha. In 2010, approximately 50 individuals in a 30 ha area were counted (Razafindramanana 2011).
In the Petriky fragment, the population density is 0.004 individuals/ha. In 2012, 4 individuals were counted in a 920 ha area (N. Malone pers. comm.).

|Habitat and Ecology:
|Lemur catta's extreme ecological flexibility allows this species to colonize a diverse range of habitats in southern, south-west, and south-central Madagascar including gallery, littoral, and dry deciduous forests, spiny bush, brush and scrub, high-altitude ericoid bush and rocky outcrop vegetation (Sauther et al. 1999, Goodman et al. 2006, Gould 2006). Indeed, at the upper portion of its elevation range on Andringitra, the species occurs in a zone above the forest line and in a vast expanse of vertical rock, with up to 400-m tall talwegs, surrounded by ericoid savanna. It encounters the most extreme climatic conditions on the island from the hottest and driest to the coldest (Andringitra Massif). It has a varied diet, and does not seem to be constrained by available water sources (Goodman et al. 2006). This is the best-studied of Madagascar's lemurs; its biology and ecology have been summarized most recently by Jolly (2003) and Mittermeier et al. (2008).
|Continuing decline in area, extent and/or quality of habitat:
|Generation Length (years):
|Use and Trade:
|This species is hunted for food and frequently kept as a pet.
|Major Threat(s):
Habitat loss and hunting are the greatest causes of concern. The Ring-tailed Lemur has a strong preference for gallery forests and for Euphorbia bush, but these habitats are already restricted in southern Madagascar and continue to diminish due to annual burning practices that help create new pasture for livestock. Subsequent over-grazing and the felling of trees for charcoal production further impact wild populations. This species is also hunted for food in certain areas and frequently kept as a pet.
Furthermore, due to more frequent droughts in the southern regions compared with past decades, this species is increasingly threatened. Hannah et al. (2008) predict that a mean temperature increase of 2.6°C will occur in southern Madagascar in this century, and that this already arid region will become even drier, which will have important and largely negative biological consequences for flora and fauna inhabiting this geographic area (Gould unpublished report 2012).
|Conservation Actions:
This species is listed on Appendix I of CITES. It is found in a number of protected areas including up to six national parks (Andohahela, Andringitra, Isalo, Tsimanampetsotsa, Zombitse, Vohibasia, and possibly in the southern parts of Kirindy Mitea), three special reserves (Beza Mahafaly, Kalambatritra and southern Pic d'Ivohibe), and the Berenty Private Reserve. It has also been reported recently from the unprotected forests of Ankoba, Ankodida, Anjatsikolo, Bereny, Mahazoarivo, Masiabiby, and Mikea (Mittermeier et al. 2008, and references therein). Many of the best remaining forest patches within the range of L. catta, and where it appears to occur at the highest densities, are found on sacred lands (Sussman et al. 2003). A successful conservation project at the Anja Community Reserve forest fragment has retained high densities of 6.6 individuals/ha (Cameron and Gould 2013).
As of 2009, there were an estimated 2,500 Ring-tailed Lemurs in zoos around the world, in addition to many more in smaller roadside collections, laboratories, and the pet trade. The species is not only the most common lemur in captivity, but indeed the most common of all captive primates (ISIS 2009, I.J. Porton pers. comm.).

Daniel Myrick never intended to be a horror film director.
Molly is pretty lovely, but is the film?
"Lovely Molly" is the latest movie from director Eduardo Sanchez of "The Blair Witch Project" and, like that film, relies heavily on found footage. With the fact that Sanchez co-directed "The Blair Witch Project" in mind, I felt another found-footage film was something of an odd choice. I would think having one's name so closely associated with the movie that sparked an avalanche of found-footage horror movies, one might want to step away from that style.
I'm going to answer the question you've been asking for years now. Yes they're making a "V/H/S 2". I know, you were getting nervous. What's more is this time around they've got a pretty kick ass list of directors to create the anthoology sequel. Gareth Evans, Eduardo Sanchez, Timo Tjahjanto and Jason Eisener are all in the mix for this one.
I think so far the reception of the "Evil Dead" remake has been warm to lukewarm, which is pretty good for horror nerds and the internet rage remakes cause. But feast your eyes on a photo of the new Necronomicon from the film. For some reason it's thrown me in a fit of rage. I want a face on it. I want a big weird angry monster face that screams and bites people. I deserve a face on a book.
"Ghostbusters 3" has been delayed again, being pushed from a summer 2013 start date to sometime in the fall of that year. The only thing surprising here to me is that this thing still has a chance of being made.
Mother of god yes. Kurt Russell will star in a new horror/western titled "Bone Tomahawk" about a sheriff and his pals who try to save a group from a band of cannibals. This will be the greatest move of all time. Yes Jennifer Carpenter is going to be in the film too but let's not let her freakish build and man jaw ruin the glory of Russell. Let's just not.
Hey remember Haley Joel Osment? The little fella who could see dead people in "The Sixth Sense" and creeped his way into all of our hearts back in 1999? Well it looks like he's back in the horror genre with a starring role in the upcoming Frankenstein flick "Wake the Dead". The movie is based on a novel by Steve Niles and it appears Osment will play the mad doctor Victor Frankenstein. So I guess his character will see dead people. Get it? Cause ya know... the Frankenstein monster was dead or something... Comedic gold.
Speaking of 1999, another film called "The Blair Witch Project" came out that year also. Well Eduardo Sanchez, one half of the writing and directing team behind the Blair Witch, is heading back into the woods with his new film "Exists". The movie will follow a group of teenagers who find themselves trapped in a cabin in the middle of a forrest being attacked by a bigfoot like creature. There better be some close up shots of people's snot. You can't top the classics.
Jim Uhls, who adapted Chuck Palahniuk's book "Fight Club" for the big screen, and Trent Reznor are teaming up to create a new mini series for HBO based on the Nine Inch Nails album "Year Zero". The series will take place in the year 2022 and show a world run by a corrupt government. And needless to say I will be both bored and confused by the entire thing.
Lauren Cohan, who wasn't on "The Hills" apparently and Scott Wilson are the latest additions to the ever growing cast of the second season of "The Walking Dead". Wilson will play the owner of a farm that the traveling group ends up on and Cohen will play his daughter. I hope she doesn't end up with that jerk Brody Jenner. She can do so much better than him and he's only after one thing.
"Paranormal Activity" director and scribe Oren Peli has announced his next project, Area 51. Applying the same narrative style as his current hit, "Area 51" will follow a group of teens who find themselves mistakenly at the infamous Air Force base.
Eduardo Sanchez confirms rumors that he has re-teamed with Dan Myrick to begin work on "Blair Witch 3". The movie appears to be in the early planning and scripting phase, so don't go lining up at the theater just yet.
Kurt Angle and Kevin Nash face off once again, but this time on the silver screen instead of the ring. Both wrestlers star in director Bruce Koehler's "River of Darkness". Can Angle pull off a convincing small town sheriff? Better yet... can he pull off acting?
"Walking Dead" author Robert Kirkman sat down with MTV to talk about the TV version of the show, to be directed by Fran Darabont. In the interview Kirkman discusses fans' fears of a lack of gore on AMC, but he has faith in Darabont, who he says understands the story 100%.
Are you over the whole "Twilight" flavor of vampire teen romance? Fear not, as Unique Features has picked up the film rights to Maggie Stiefvater's "Shiver", a teen werewolf romance novel. There's enough love to go around!
Lionsgate has released a slew of promo stills from their latest batch of Ghost House Underground films. Included in the bunch are a new Jack Ketchum adaptation as well as "Blair Witch" maestro Eduardo Sanchez's "Seventh Moon".
This horror/comedy web series Joe blogged about a month ago continues to turn out some pretty funny episodes. The series is by writer Jamie Nash and "Blair Witch" co-creator Eduardo Sanchez.

Sometimes the predictable revolving door of lousy pop culture deserves the eye rolls it generates. Unless you totally loved the latest "Die Hard" sequel?
In many ways, though, the first three months of 2013's entertainment offerings have been consistently surprising and frequently awesome. Why? These 13 reasons.
The best movie of the year so far stars Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens
No, "Spring Breakers" didn't come from the team that makes Adam Sandler's annual garbage, but there was little reason to believe writer-director Harmony Korine's dangerous hallucination through the debaucheries of St. Petersburg would be so fascinatingly intoxicating.
Fall Out Boy played at Subterranean and has a new album on the way
The biggest Chicago rock band of the last decade emerged from an indefinite hiatus to perform on a stage much, much smaller than they're used to—and will do it big May 16 at Riviera after releasing "Save Rock and Roll" in April. Welcome back, guys.
Pairing Tina Fey and Paul Rudd ("Admission") and re-teaming Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone ("Gangster Squad") unfortunately didn't work at all
It's as if movies are more than a result of who's in them. Who knew?
Pitchfork's top line looks better than Lolla's
It's been years since that was the case. This summer, Bjork, R. Kelly and Belle and Sebastian wipe the floor with Mumford and Sons, Vampire Weekend and The Killers. (Which isn't difficult.)
James Franco delivered an awful performance and one of his best performances--in the span of two weeks
The Oscar-nominated actor ("127 Hours") was 100 percent wrong for "Oz the Great and Powerful." As a tattooed rapper named Alien with corn rows and metal teeth in "Spring Breakers," he's brilliant.
The best album of the year so far is a country album
I know, I know, "I don't like country music" either. But listen to Kacey Musgraves' "Same Trailer, Different Park" and tell me you aren't hooked. Hey hey hey--don't just look at the album cover.
For the first time in a long time, "How I Met Your Mother" is funny and moving
For about three years, fans have of the show have just wanted to meet the freakin' mother already. Now suddenly, with a not necessarily welcome additional season still on tap, the show (Robin) sparkles again.
Justin Timberlake released a new album—and appeared on Jimmy Fallon for five consecutive nights
After almost seven years of non-musicality, JT returned in a big way with the solid "The 20/20 Experience" and a mix of great performances/uninhibited comedy. Respect.
Charlie Sheen starred in a movie, with another to come
"A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III" was a zero-star atrocity that most people don't know existed, and no way anyone thinks "Scary Movie 5" looks good. Justice.
The talk of the NCAA Tournament is the best-ever 15 seed and its millionaire, model-marrying coach
In a generally underwhelming year for March Madness, Florida Gulf Coast has provided enough excitement for three tournaments. Appreciate the trip to Dunk City while it lasts.
Seth MacFarlane hosted the Oscars, was a huge jackass and some people liked it
Most people, myself included, didn't. But how transparent does misogyny have to be for people to get upset?
Hawks go 24 games without regulation loss and the Bulls end the Heat's 27-game winning streak
Miami deserves credit for racking up those wins. So do the Bulls, baby, for doing the "impossible" without Derrick or Joakim. And showing we only stand for hometown streaks around here, regardless of the surface being played on.
There was a movie called "The Last Exorcism Part II."
The absurdity is self-explanatory.
Watch Matt on "You & Me This Morning," Friday at 6:55 a.m. on WCIU, the U

Simple question: Pick one of Suter or Parise.
Ryan Suter
Zach Parise
Simple question: Pick one of Suter or Parise.
|Sponsored Links
parise personally need a guy who can score goals and we have defensive d men already
Suter, we are loaded in prospects that are turning pro on the offensive side. We are pretty bare defensively after Brodin (Falk, Spurgeon, Scandella all project well but can they still be considered prospects?) and now Dumba. Suter paired with Gilbert gives us a legit #1 and #2 for a pretty B.A top pair. While I cant deny we need the scoring touch of Parise, I think what would help us more is just all of our top 6 forwards making it through a season with only minimal time to injury. Hard to replace to likes of PMB, Gui, Seto and Guchi with Warren Peters, Chad Rau and company.
Parise, Our defense would be much improved if we could control the puck in the other teams zone.
I voted for Suter personally as I believe that defense is the key to a good core. Like pidg said prospects may be coming but to insert Suter in there right away would be a huge. I think the Wings will grab him, but Parise wouldn't be a bad fallback plan at all .
prospects are always hit or miss though some do well some burn out you never really know
Ahh so sounds similar to baseball in that effect. That's scary to mortgage your franchise's future on some of these kids...that are younger than I am! (I'm 21, that makes me feel old )

Parise...no doubt about it.
I'd go with Parise also. He's too much of a goal scorer to pass up. Teams win with goal scoring and a great goalie. A team like the Rangers who relied heavily on their defense just were outmatched by New Jersey's goal scorers.
Yes but there is a difference between what the Rangers D did and what the Wild D have done. We have 1 maybe 2 D that can successfully cycle the puck and make crisp passes out of our zone. The rangers have 4 or 5. I am a firm believer that our offense is as terrible as it is because we dont have defenders that can cycle the puck. Yes we need another goal scoring winger and a legitimate 2nd line center, but if we have the same D it wont matter because they wont get the puck and spend too much time in our own end. Suter would greatly help this.

Retailers, economists and industry analysts all expect holiday sales this year to surpass 2011 totals, meaning the sluggish economy won't be playing the role of Grinch. Deeper in the expected sales numbers, however, are trends that highlight an uneven recovery and turmoil in the retail sector.
The 2012 holiday season got off to a strong start, with better than expected sales during Black Friday and the subsequent Thanksgiving weekend. The National Retail Federation said that shoppers spent $59.1 billion on Black Friday and the following weekend. Sales were up, but by less than last year's increase.
"Our data from the weekend show more people were out each day of the weekend," said Kathy Grannis, a senior spokeswoman for the federation, which represents the nation's largest retail chains.
The group expects holiday sales overall to increase by 4.1 percent, to about $586.1 billion, compared with an increase of 5.6 percent last year. Forecaster IHS Global Insight expects holiday retail sales to increase 3.9 percent over last year.
Either way, that means big retailers expect things won't grow as much as last year but still will outpace the year-over-year average increase of 3.5 percent over the past decade.
The strong holiday weekend was followed a solid Cyber Monday. Online sales on Cyber Monday grew by 30.3 percent over the same day last year, according to IBM, which tracks these sales with its IBM Smarter Commerce program. Across the entire season, online retail sales over this holiday period are expected to beat last year's online sales by about 17 percent, according to IHS.
"On the online side, things are picking up at a more rapid pace," said Chris Christopher, director of U.S. Consumer Markets for IHS.
However, the average online order value fell to $185.12 from $198.26, IBM said Tuesday.
Big retailers such as Target Corp. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. have aggressively expanded their online presence, trying to win back market share from Amazon.com. But many consumers continue to play big retail chains off of online competitors in a search for the lowest price, and this favors online sales, Christopher said.
"I think this year you're sort of seeing an acceleration of the online sales, and the brick-and-mortar (retailers) are starting to show not that much momentum anymore," said Christopher, adding that "it's on the price-point side that brick and mortar can't compete with the cyber stores. You get the feeling they're going to take a pretty strong hit on the (profit) margins."
Nowhere is that more evident than at department stores, which is struggling to attract younger web savvy customers. Younger shoppers steer clear of department stores, shop online in greater numbers and are forcing department chains such as J.C. Penney Co. and others to experiment with new business models.
It means department stores are slashing prices, hurting profit margins, and searching for right-priced products to avoid having to discount.
"Their customer base is getting older. They're struggling to maintain full margins, and retail price points in fashion apparel. They've gone on the slippery slope of discounting and they don't know how to get back or if they'll get back," said Ted Hurlbut, a Boston-based consultant on retail strategies. "They are trying to find a sustainable business model, and to be perfectly blunt about it they realize they cannot continue, on an ongoing basis, to continue to slash their business margins."
In recent months, retail sales have beat expectations and several gauges of consumer sentiment have been positive. That latest indicator came Tuesday, when the Conference Board reported that its index of consumer confidence registered its highest reading since February 2008, just months before the brutal financial crisis hit.
"The rise in confidence was entirely due to a gain in expectations," economists at RDQ Economics in New York said Tuesday in a research note.
Confidence is expected to translate into looser purse strings. On top of that, inflation has been tame this year, with falling gas prices giving some consumers more of their paycheck to spend elsewhere. Paychecks are stretching a bit farther.
"Those things are helping out consumers quite a bit," said Christopher of IHS.
But as a sign of the unevenness of the economic recovery, transaction counts earlier this year at retail establishments are down but per-transaction amounts are up, according to Hurlbut.
"The customers that are in stores are spending more than they have in the past, and they are buying more expensive goods, and I would expect that to continue," he said, noting the yearlong trend of fewer customers who are nonetheless spending more. "That's an indicator of an uneven recovery. That is across all sectors. That suggests to me that . . . there are segments of the population that are at minimum behaving like they are still in a recession."
Wal-Mart and Target, which cater to lower-income and middle-income shoppers, have struggled to grow profits, as many of their customers face flat wages and job insecurity.
Still, at least for the start of holiday season, it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas for retailers. Initial sales numbers exceeded expectations. But there's the looming showdown in Washington over possible tax increases, debt and deficits. Politics can still influence shopper behavior in coming weeks.
"All of this goes to how confusing it really is right now," said Grannis of the retail federation. "We're seeing positive retail sales, and consumer sentiment is up. But spending is conservative."
