But to realize his promise, he had to work on a few things.
Aware of this, Sabathia began intensifying his exercise program. Though he still casts an immense shadow with his NBA-sized dimensions (6-foot-7, 270 pounds), he no longer feels hampered by his size.
"The conditioning played a big role in it," Sabathia said Monday. "It allowed me to have more stamina deep into the game."
This has resulted in Sabathia's 8-4 record and 3.23 ERA -- as well as his first appearance in the All-Star Game.
Sabathia attributed his improvement to aerobic exercises, such as windsprints. A renewed attitude helped, too.
"I started actually doing the work instead of going in the weight room and playing around," he said.
Sabathia has never played around on the mound, as his 38-20 lifetime record indicates. Opponents, such as All-Star outfielder Dmitri Young of the Detroit Tigers, speak of him in the highest terms.
"Whoo!" Young said at the mere mention of Sabathia's name. "By the time he's 27, he's going to be talked about like Randy Johnson is -- a dominating power lefty."
Sabathia, who turns 23 next Monday, is the Indians' youngest All-Star since right-hander Dennis Eckersley made the 1977 AL squad at age 22. His youthful enthusiasm was evident during Monday's workout at U.S. Cellular Field, though all he did was shag flies during batting practice.
"I was really excited when I got selected, but it's different actually being here," said Sabathia, the fifth pitcher since 1987 to win 30 games in his first two big-league seasons. "I'm having a lot of fun."
Sabathia will share his All-Star experience with a pair of special guests -- his mother, Margie, and his wife, Amber, who he married on June 9.
He's looking forward to resuming the regular season once the All-Star Game is over, and not just because he owns a career second-half record of 17-6.
"We had a good first half, considering all the injuries we had and how young we are," Sabathia said. "We showed we can be a pretty good team in the future."

We'd been unsuccessfully plugging the rock outcropping for an hour when I noticed David rummaging through his tackle box, resurfacing with a popper. "That'll just spook anything here," I naively said. One cast, one pop and a swirl formed behind it, another pop and POW! A broad tail sent the plug skyward. One more twitch, and the plug disappeared under a boil and line screamed off the reel.
Poppers work magic on stripers, particularly on structure such as rocks, rip lines, and sod banks, and demonstrate the extraordinary aggressiveness of these animals. They're sometimes effective when nothing else will draw interest. Nothing gets the heart pumping like a violent surface strike in what seemed like dead water. These explosions never fail to take my breath away.
Active or Reactive?
Why stripers eat poppers, particularly on structure, is a relevant question given they will often slam them when they are not visibly feeding, or when they are feeding on a bait that looks and acts nothing like a popper. Opinions vary, but many believe that it's an instinctual, aggressive reaction. "It's a territorial thing," says Block Island guide Greg Snow. "It's in their zone; they're going to smack it." This is likely true.
In those cases when stripers are feeding on small bait, or don't appear to be feeding at all, I get more boils and tail slaps than actual strikes, as if they are trying to punish the popper rather than eat it. "A lot of the time, it aggravates them and they just blast it," says Chesapeake guide Richie Gains.
Frank Crescitelli, New York guide and designer of an innovative line of poppers under the brand Guides Secret, believes poppers simply get the fish going. "They inspire action," he says. "They might not be in feeding mode, but poppers get things going by ringing the dinner bell."
Certainly poppers trigger a striper's competitive nature. "In Block Island the water is clear, so we often see a dozen fish laying up," says Snow. "They ignore a live bait, but when you throw a popper, it gets their attention. They get competitive."
To Pop or Not to Pop
Sure, you'll want to grab a popper any time you see surface action. But when no surface activity is apparent, I still give them a try, especially when working structure. Poppers often work in the most unlikely circumstances. Gains describes an excellent Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel bite last winter: "The best pilings are in 50 feet of water; the stripers are 20 feet down, and they still come up to grab a popper."
One of my favorite popper-fishing settings is the back-bay sod-bank scenario found in saltwater marshes from Maine to Virginia. The mud flats in front of sod banks hold small bait, such as grass shrimp, crabs and worms. When small-bait hatches go off, there are thousands of critters in the water. "Matching the hatch" can be useless when there is so much of the real thing. Poppers cause that aggressive reaction though, especially in shallow water. They'll draw strikes when nothing else will.
Another good place to use poppers is along rocks, riprap, jetties and other hard, sloping structure. Stripers prowl these areas, staging on leeward rocks, waiting in ambush. New Jersey guide Gene Quigley does a lot of his popper fishing along central and northern Jersey Shore jetties. "Our jetties slope gradually underwater, and fish are right in those rocks," he says. "They will smash something splashing around above them."

"Low Winter Sun" is a cops and corruption drama debuting in August on AMC.Media writer Corey Hall said it appears the creators have the chops to get it right. Shot in Detroit, the gritty series has a ten episode order, AMC's pedigree and film incentives on its side."It's not like it was three years ago when we were really turning over projects. But hopefully this will be a sign of things to come because I think people came here when we were giving away all the money, but Detroit is still an attractive location if you want to have a certain kind of story, if you want to have grit, if you want to have edge, you want to have some style that you can't find other places," Hall said.Hall hopes the show goes beyond the window dressing settings of previous shot in Detroit shows."'Hung' was shot here, and outside of the opening credits, you wouldn't know that it took place in Detroit. So hopefully this show really gets a little flavor of the city, gets the experience," he said."Where did 'Detroit 1-8-7' go wrong where this show can go right?" I asked."First of all, there's not even a 1-8-7 code in the Detroit Police Department, so that's like a California thing, and I think people found some of the touches like that were a little off, a little weird. So hopefully they'll get the details right on this one. '1-8-7' got better as it went along... but it got cut short," he explained."Low Winter Sun" gets the benefit of "Breaking Bad" as a lead in, so it certainly won't be wanting for an audience when it debuts. Whether the show delivers over the long haul is any Detroiter's guess.

The treatment and management of stroke involves enormous commitments of time and personnel. After procedures and medicine, the focus of treatment shifts to rehabilitation.
Having a stroke may dramatically change your lifestyle. But the changes are so varied that they cannot be predicted even after the acute event. You may recover completely from a stroke days, weeks, or months later. A stroke can leave you permanently impaired or the effects may be minimal. The days and weeks after your first stroke may be an entirely new world to you, a world of hard work to recover and retrain whatever functions the stroke deprived you of—speech, walking, use of an arm or leg—and to redirect your life so that you can profit most from your remaining abilities.

North Stonington – State police have confirmed at least one person is dead as a result of a one-car crash this afternoon on Route 2, just south of the intersection with Main Street.
The crash was reported at 1:37 p.m. First responders spent several hours at the scene cutting away portions of the white sedan to free the occupant. The car, which was on its side, appears to have traveled off the roadway, up an embankment and into a tree.
The car sustained heavy damage and the occupant was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
State police, along with firefighters from North Stonington and Old Mystic, remained at the scene as of 4 p.m. Route 2 was closed during response and investigation into the crash and remained closed at 4 p.m.
It is unclear if there was more than one occupant in the vehicle. Information on the identity of the deceased is not yet available.

Rapids above Emerald Pool
The World > North America > USA > California
At this time of the year the river that feeds Emerald Pool has dwindled to a stream, exposing a large area of smooth granite river bed which is very tempting indeed for sweat-soaked hikers for a quick ride along such a marvellous ad-hoc water slide into the welcoming pool below - but not that far to actually plunge some 70 metres below Vernal falls though.
The view is taken on a footbridge after Emerald Pool. Nevada Fall is another 40 minutes or so from here.

Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

The Texas school district that began requiring its students to wear radio-frequency identification (RIFD) tracking chips this year is now facing a fight in federal court. A sophomore, Andrea Hernandez, has refused to wear the ID tag on biblical grounds, comparing it to "the mark of the beast." Last week, attorneys for the Rutherford Institute, a civil liberties group, announced that they're filing suit in federal court to keep Hernandez from being expelled.
The case has set privacy activists ablaze, and hackers claiming affiliation with Anonymous joined the fight recently by targeting the school district's website with a denial-of-service attack.
But those demonizing the district have ignored one key fact that could keep the case from being the big test of religious freedom, student privacy and government surveillance that some media reports are making it out to be. The school isn't actually expelling - or suspending, as some outlets have it - Hernandez for refusing to wear the electronic tracking chip. District officials have repeatedly offered to let Hernandez come to school wearing an identification card from which the RFID chip and battery have been removed.
"We have to respect their religious beliefs," district spokesman Pascual Gonzalez told me in a phone interview. "So we said, 'All right, if this is objectionable to you because it violates your religious beliefs, then we will not put the RFID technology in the card. But you still have to wear the ID card like every other student at school.' Daddy said no, and the student said no." Gonzalez denied a report that the compromise came on the condition that Hernandez agree to stop criticizing the program and publicly support it. "That's just untrue," he said.
The really interesting question is whether the school's RFID tracking program violates students' privacy. But that might be a tough case to make in court, given that we're talking about minors on school grounds. And the school's compromise offer also takes the steam out of claims that it has punished or harassed Hernandez because of her refusal to be tracked. The school's students use the ID chips to check in at the front door, buy lunch and vote for the Homecoming king and queen, but Gonzalez said Hernandez could do all the same things with the chip removed. "We were very explicit with her and her family that all of the access and services that she would have gotten with RFID would still be available via this non-RFID card," Gonzalez told me.
By framing her objections primarily in terms of religious liberty, Hernandez has won from the school a concession that renders the privacy issue moot. So her lawyers at the Rutherford Institute have to make the case that an even ID badge with no tracking capabilities runs counter to her Christian principles, as they claimed in the motion they filed in federal court last week.
Rutherford Institute President John Whitehead told me that, according to the Hernandez family's beliefs, "any kind of identifying badge from the government is the mark of the beast, which means that you pay allegiance to a false God." Adding that many Muslims and Jews hold similar beliefs, Whitehead predicted, "This is going to be a problem across the country."
No doubt Whitehead is right that we're likely to see more battles over RFID in schools in the years to come. But in the broader national debate over technologies that make government surveillance easier and more pervasive than ever, the religious-freedom issue is a red herring. These tags aren't the mark of the beast - they're the mark of a society grappling with troubling tradeoffs between convenience, security and privacy.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Veteran left-hander Jeff Francis finished the 2012 season believing that he and the Rockies had left much business unfinished."We greatly underachieved," Francis said after his final start, a win over the D-backs that left him with a 6-7 record and 5.58 ERA in 24 starts after joining the team in June. "Everybody in here is capable of better things. We all know that, and we all think that. We lost a lot of games and got on some bad runs where we lost a lot of games in a row, and I think we can do a few things to make ourselves better." If all goes as expected, Francis, who turns 32 next month, will take part in helping the team improve on last year's 64-98 finish, as ESPN.com reports that he has agreed to a one-year Major League contract, pending a physical. The Rockies have not confirmed the signing, but if it goes through, Francis can resume his position as a veteran leader on a young staff and club. Francis was a member of the Rockies from 2004 to 2010 and started Game 1 of the only World Series in club history, in 2007. But he missed the entire 2009 season with a shoulder injury, was limited to 20 starts during a comeback year in 2010 and spent 2011 with the Royals re-establishing himself. Francis went to camp with the Reds last spring and was in Triple-A when he received his release; he quickly joined the Rockies. He didn't complain when the club went with its ill-fated four-man-rotation experiment, and his work was held as an example for younger hurlers. Now comes the prospect of trying to help improve the club as it begins anew under new manager Walt Weiss. "This is where I've spent 90 percent of my career," Francis said as last season ended. "For me there would be no better place to have a winning team. It's an accomplishment for this team to win some big games. I had gone through it before with these guys. I think I have what it takes, and it would be a lot of fun." As 2012 closed, then-manager Jim Tracy said that the club needed to retain Francis. Tracy noted that Bo McLaughlin, who will return as assistant pitching coach under Weiss, believed Francis could improve his fastball velocity, which would bring his stuff closer to where it was when he was the Rockies' No. 1 pitcher. "All I know is, I do what I can to be the best I can be," Francis said. "I go into every year knowing I've worked my hardest to get myself in the best possible position to succeed. If my arm has a few extra miles in it, that's good. I'm always working on that." Briefly:
Colorado acquired right-handed reliever Wilton Lopez from Houston in exchange for righty Alex White and a Minor Leaguer on Tuesday, not long after Philadelphia backed out of a deal for Lopez over concerns about his elbow. "We went through a medical exam on him and reviewed all his history. ... Pitchers get injured, and it's risky," said Bill Geivett, the Rockies' senior vice president of Major League operations. "But we're very confident in where he is right now." The Rockies are close to filling Minor League managing and coaching positions, with former first-base coach Glenallen Hill possibly in line to manage Triple-A Colorado Springs and Dave Hajek the odds-on favorite to be hitting coach. Former catching coach Mark Strittmatter, who was on the Pirates' coaching staff the last two years, is returning to the organization as roving catching coach. The Rockies are setting up operations officials at each farm club in an effort to streamline instruction and expectations throughout the system. Marv Foley, a former catching coach, manager at Colorado Springs and Double-A Tulsa, and roving catching instructor, is expected to be one of the directors.

Fans of international ball will be pleased to note the distinct foreign accent in the 2013 NCAA Tournament: 47 of the 60 sides with spots clinched in the competition list non-U.S. players on the roster. And while Canadians and Australians (including three on Albany and two with Luc Longley's alma mater the University of New Mexico) lead the bunch, 18 European players remain on tourney team rosters.
Below runs a brief look at the first half of Europe's representatives in the big bracket; with the other nine set to play for one of three tournament teams, BallinEurope will pay particular attention to these guys in an upcoming article.
First up: The two guys listed on rosters who will not see action. Notre Dame's Eric Katenda (France) announced this summer that he was ready to get onto the court for the Fighting Irish after suffering a freakish potentially career-ending eye injury while still officially a recruit. Unfortunately, this comeback story has only a bittersweet ending thus far: While coach Mike Brey has stated that Katenda's scholarship will be honored, the Frenchman did not suit up for the team this season.

Register with DOLE for job opportunities, evacuees urged
November 17, 2013
Manila, Philippines — Amid the exodus of evacuees from typhoon-hit areas in the Visayas to cities in nearby provinces and in Metro Manila, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said it is looking at every means to provide them with employment opportunities.
Labor and Employment Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz said she has ordered the Public Employment Services Offices (PESO) to begin its monitoring and profiling of workers, who fled from communities battered by super typhoon "Yolanda" earlier this month.
"I have already directed our Public Employment Services Offices, particularly here in Metro Manila…we also urge the affected workers to register in the PESO so we could provide them with employment opportunities as soon as possible," Baldoz said.
At least 150 typhoon victims are now in Metro Manila since last Friday. This is expected to increase in the coming days due to existing uncertainties in relief supplies and security situation in some of the affected areas.
Baldoz said the displaced workers could avail of DOLE's nationwide job fairs, scheduled before the end of the year. She said the job fair will serve as venue for medical missions, relief distribution, and food station.
She reported the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) is coordinating with some recruitment agencies and local employers to hold a job fair in Tacloban City, which was among the heavily-devastated areas.
"POEA is negotiating with some agencies, which will agree to deploy workers abroad with no-placement fees," Baldoz said.
Baldoz said POEA will prioritize agencies that are seeking to hire skilled workers to ensure they will be well-protected once deployed overseas.
She said the Technical Education Skills Development Authority will offer cash-for work scholarship training for those, who will not qualify for available job openings due to lack of skills.
She said POEA will also invite social service agencies like the Social Security System, Philhealth, and Pag-IBIG Fund to put up a one-stop shop processing center. "This is very important for the affected workers since many of their documents have been washed out from the recent calamity," Baldoz said.

Saints soar past the Eagles
5:33pm Monday 9th April 2012 in Sport
RICKIE Lambert scored twice as Saints took a major step towards promotion with a 2-0 win Crystal Palace.
Nigel Adkins' side moved three points clear of second-placed Reading, while they went seven ahead of West Ham, who were playing Birmingham in today's late kick-off at Upton Park.
Lambert headed Saints in front after 39 minutes, as he charged in at the back post to meet Danny Butterfield's cross from the right.
And he sealed the win in the 56th minute when he danced past the Palace defence and fired in a low left foot shot.

Quote from: XFactor on May 17, 2013, 08:11:06 AMThe way rookie QBs have played lately think I'd rather face Sanchez..Huh?I'm confused how the success of guys like RGIII, Luck or Wilson last year in any way, shape or form changes anything about Geno Smith?If he starts, we dominate, hell if he doesn't start we dominate. I just don't see a way the Jet's beat us week 1 unless Freeman throws about 5 picks in which 2 go to the house.
The way rookie QBs have played lately think I'd rather face Sanchez..
Man our team looks great on paper. Now hopefully that paper doesn't get run through the shredder like it did last year and we don't lose our offensive and defensive line.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.
I'm really excited to see AC smashing people again.
Quote from: Bucs N Beers on May 17, 2013, 08:19:32 AMI'm really excited to see AC smashing people again.
That seems like forever ago!!!
Getting pressure will be crucial, imo. Every QB does better when they have time, obviously, but from what I saw of Geno in college he's one of the most extreme versions of that. Absolutely shredded defenses that couldn't get to him, and was completely useless when they could. Covering the short routes will be key as well, as he was much more comfortable throwing passes of 10 yards and under.This could all change in the NFL, of course, but from what I saw of him in college it was pretty stunning how night and day he was based on pressure. He also defies the usual black QB stereotype, as he's a pocket passer who lacks the mobility to escape the pocket and take off.
well, the jets have Zero running game left. So there's that.

A story to eat scones by. A scone worthy story, in other words. One more glimpse into life on the side with our unreliable narrator.
|These gluten-free chocolate chip scones are also vegan.
Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Scones Recipe
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flours and dry ingredients. Cut in the shortening until the mixture is sandy in texture.
Add in the eggs or egg replacer, milk and vanilla extract and stir until a smooth sticky dough forms.
Sprinkle in the chocolate chips.
Mix the dough to distribute the chocolate chips- and don't beat it to death. Plop the dough into the prepared cake pan and press it with moist hands to form a slightly rounded circle.
Using a very sharp knife, score the dough into six or eight wedges, depending upon how large you want the scones to be. You do not have to slice all the way down- just score it about an inch deep.

Credit Scores Can Affect Rates
Auto - Buying and Insurance
Credit Scores Can Affect Rates
Insurance companies deal with risk. Auto insurers do everything they can to understand risk, and to price their coverage accordingly. Insurance companies feel a person's credit score is a solid indicator of their likelihood of being in an accident or filing a claim the lower the score, the greater the likelihood.
So, if your credit score is currently low, try hard to improve your score. Check out your credit report, look for inaccurate entries, and take steps to correct those entries. Pay your bills on time and close unused accounts. Your credit rating will improve and your chances of getting cheaper auto insurance coverage will improve and so will the cost of loans you may take out down the road.

St. Louis shortstop Edgar Renteria will lead off for the National League team followed in the lineup by Cardinals center fielder Jim Edmonds and left fielder Albert Pujols. Barry Bonds will bat fourth at designated hitter followed by Atlanta's Gary Sheffield in right, Colorado's Todd Helton at first, St. Louis' Scott Rolen at third, Atlanta's Javy Lopez at catcher and Montreal's Jose Vidro at second.
Schmidt was a sentimental choice. The right-hander helped Baker and the Giants reach the World Series last year. And Schmidt lost his mother earlier this year to cancer.
"This is one of the highlights of my career," said Schmidt, who is 9-4 with a 2.37 ERA.
"Without Jason Schmidt, I wouldn't be sitting here right now as the National League manager," Baker said.
Baker's other tough choice was to decide on the designated hitter for the game, played under American League rules at U.S Cellular Field. Baker selected Bonds, who was voted in as a starting outfielder.
"Out of respect to Barry I wanted to give him first choice," Baker said.
The decision had to be approved both by Major League Baseball -- there was a question as to whether a starting position player could be the DH -- and by Bonds. Baker wanted a bona fide center fielder rather than force starters Bonds, Pujols or Sheffield to play out of position. Edmonds was named as a reserve and will start in center.

Curagami helps form the "Ambassador Layer" every website and brand needs these days. Ambassadors, people who've "bought in" to a brand's mission and want to help, need to be given contextually appropriate "jobs".

Marty's Paper.li Story
The brilliance behind Paper.li, that they present an algorithm filter of content you've already shared and or mashedup, makes it the GREATEST and most under utilized (and just about the cheapest) content curation tool.
Kelly Hungerford's comment, July 24, 4:23 PM
Marty, you're awesome! If only we had had custom CSS and branding options back then... we could have branded a paper to fit their look and feel. LOL. You continue to be one of our greatest champions of not only Paper.li, but how Paper.li and Scoop.it can work together in a marketing strategy to build presence, community and get some work done. Thank you for that. In fact, I think a post is in order. You always inspire Marty, thank you!

The purpose of this presentation is to list 5 typical mistakes people make when sharing stories in business settings.
The 5 Storytelling Mistakes in Biz:
* Don't say "Let Me Tell You A Story" in a business context.
* Stories and facts should be intermingled in biz storytelling.
* Easy to get the "Hero" wrong (THEM not YOU).
* Story must relate to real world "routines", "habits" & realities.
* Repeat, Rinse, Repeat and so on.
Funny was just thinking about how everything starts with a story now. Didn't think about these five "mistakes" though. Great post.
the more information overload out there, the more it becomes important to be able to tell a memorable story!
8 Visual Marketing Tips From Vogue
* Be specific & Use BIG NUMBERS to help.
* Branded - use existing and known brands.
* Portrait Images - images staring at camera = most powerful.
* Events - Ride wave of current events.
* Alliteration.
* Juxtapositions.
* Action verbs.
* Simple colors.
If every startup were to follow those 8 visual marketing tips from Vogue they would improve their website's performance. Just don't copy off of Vogue's website. For some reason great magazines haven't been able to crack the code for great websites (strange since these rules apply to either).
Change The World, Save Yourself
I used to preach the need to THINK BIG, to change the world. Now I discuss the need to THINK BIG and change something more controllable - yourself. Next Friday 8.8.14 I'm speaking at the opening of the Triangle Startup Weekend about living a EULOGY instead of a RESUME life.
I came to the realization my life wasn't courageous the hard way - by having the Big C force courage on me. Entrepreneurs next weekend are signing on to making the world a better place and they will learn their main instrument is...themselves.
As we change, grow and see the world different movements are possible and our "virus" can be shared. Can a company started next weekend in Durham, NC change the world? You bet it can :). Marty
Greatest Movie Never Made & Lessons Learned
"To fail is only to change the way," says Topo and Holy Mountain director Jodorowsky in this must view documentary for anyone trying to create anything. Such an important documentary I'm double posting here in Startup Revolution and in Design Revolution.
Here is what I posted in Design Revolution, the 30 Lessons in Creativity from watching this magical film:
Greatest Film Never Made
"What is he purpose of life," the director Jodorowsky asks in this must view documentary film for any creative, "to create a soul". The amazing creativity and vision of El Topo's director is shared in a series of linked stories.
Much like any creative's mind, this film flies between the surreal, heroic, mystical and crazy. Stories about Orson Wells and Pink Floyd are rich in "sounds true" detail, but pales in comparison to the "I can't type that fast" advice shared.
Advice such as:
* Be all in.
* Be a prophet.
* When it comes to missions THINK BIG (something important for humanity).
* Start with clear ideas, but find and respect "light of genius".
* Challenge people to find their best.
* Give Morning Motivation speeches.
* Your VISION should become OUR IDEA.
* OUR Ideas become art.
* When you think you are looking at a rock its an object & vice versa.
* Lucky enough to meet a prophet FOLLOW HIM.
* Be supportive of others.
* Transport people. MOVE THEM.
* Look for and work with WARRIORS (life is too short for anything else).
* Imagine and then imagine again.
* No such thing as "too far".
* Let the work rule.
* One man's obsession is another man's art.
* MOTIVATE others.
* If you can Seduce Salvador Dali DO SO.
* Create enigmas.
* If chance puts Dali at your hotel, send him a strange note.
* When you find a clock in the sand discover who lost it.
* Create MOVEMENTS and ART with your life.
* If Dali asks you for a helicopter, GIVE IT TO HIM.
* Dali gets you Giger, Giger gets you Magma (and so on).
* If you can get a meeting with Mick Jagger, TAKE IT.
* If Andy Warhol invites you to the FACTORY, go there.
* Plan everything, Plan Nothing (chance).
* When you see Orson Wells in a Paris restaurant, send wine.
* Live a EULOGY Life not a Resume Life.
That last bullet picks up on a great David Brooks TED Talk I wrote about on LinkedIn yesterday: http://www.linkedin.com/today/post/article/20140717125545-13925622-are-you-living-a-resume-or-a-eulogy-life
Hope you are living a Eulogy Life. Jodorowsky sure did. I had to be shoved kicking and screaming on the Eulogy train by the Big C. Glad I got on this train even if it turns out to be the last train from Clarksville :). M

Startups & Stores
I almost forgot one of my rules (lol). Stores help any website, brand or idea get better faster. There are things you learn creating a store our #startup http://www.curagami.com can't teach.
We have over 30 years of ecommerce experience and creating one Shopify store will, over the course of the 2 - 4 days it takes, teach you half of what we know.
What Creating A Store Teaches Startups
* Content and copy writing.
* Webdesign.
* Product categorization, planning and business intelligence (#BI).
* Social Media.
* Thinking about THEM (your customers).
* Learning to test & validate assumptions.
* Provides a new dimension for B2B and B2C products, companies and tools.
The new "perspective" the last bullet mentions is the gold. Getting out of your head and testing assumptions and ideas IRL (In Real Life) is more valuable than every brainstorm we've ever had.
Brainstorms and past experience create an assumption framework. Creating a store pushing assumptions into the deep end of the pool and they learn to swim fast or drown
Competitive Advantage
We work around 6 startups and NONE of them have or are likely to follow my advice to create store. Every startup here in Durham thinks they are selling a THING.
I've learned the hard way the first thing we startups sell is OURSELVES (you & people on your team). Next thing you sell is money making competency. If you know a better way to prove "money making competency" than spending $200 to create a Shopify store be sure to tweet @Curagami and share that idea and trust we will be creating your idea next :).
Marty & Team Curagami
PS. Will share HackHeadphones.Shopify.com when its live (probably Monday)
Curagami Scores
We've tuned our Curgami engine to evaluate three website and brand CSFs (Critical Success Factor):
* Content.
* Community.
* Conversion.
The tool creates unique metrics such as Link Efficiency Indexes (LEI) to evaluate a website, close competitors and it establishes "best practice" averages viral content, sustainable community and asynchronous conversion ideas (not going up against a competitor's strength).
We started our journey to answer a simple question:
What content should a website create and why?
That simple question has soaked up six months of our lives and tens of thousands of our investors' cash. Good news is we are seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Will your website WIN armed with a Curgami Score Report?
Yes :). Marty & Team Curagami

Andruw Jones was going to walk away with MVP honors and John Smoltz was going to ensure the National League of home-field advantage in this year's World Series by closing out the ninth in customary fashion.
But over the past two years, Smoltz has learned of the many variables a closer encounters and simply had to watch helplessly as Dodgers closer Eric Gagne allowed three runs in the eighth inning of the American League's 7-6 come-from behind victory over the National League.
"Obviously I wanted to pitch," Smoltz said. "That would have meant we had the lead in the ninth. It was an exciting All-Star Game in many ways, mainly because it was the first one that counted."
Smoltz's comments came with a smile in reference to Major League Baseball's marketing slogan, "This Time It Counts." The Braves closer is among the many players who contended that they gave the same effort this year as they had in previous years, when the league that won the All-Star Game didn't earn home-field advantage in the World Series.
"If anyone says this game is the reason the National League loses the World Series this year, they're wrong," Smoltz said. "Nothing changed out there tonight. It was like any other game that everybody wants to win."
With Gagne and Smoltz, who have more saves than anyone in baseball, it certainly looked like the NL's two-run lead was safe. But as soon as Hank Blalock drilled his decisive two-out, two-run homer in the eighth off Gagne, everyone was denied the opportunity of seeing the Braves' record-setting closer shut the door.
Smoltz, who is on pace to record an all-time record 59 saves this season, has converted 94 percent (89 of 95) save opportunities over the past two years.
"I stayed in the dugout to see Smoltzie come in and close it out," Gary Sheffield said. "I told him he better come in and shut them down one, two, three. When you see him come out of the bullpen you know it's pretty much over."
While Smoltz was unable to take the hill in a game Jones had three RBIs, Braves ace Russ Ortiz made the most of his opportunity by walking one and recording two strikeouts in a scoreless fifth inning. It was the first time the right-hander, who has an NL-leading 12 wins, has appeared in an All-Star Game.
"I was nervous and I was excited," Ortiz said. "The adrenaline was going pretty good. I just wanted to go out there and give all I had and it ended up working out pretty good."

CNHI News Service
GLEN HAVEN, Mich. — Authorities found a suburban Detroit father sought on a domestic dispute warrant and his three children in remote northwest Michigan on Monday evening after an extensive land and air search.
Police have not identified the 50-year-old man from Orchard Lake, who was arrested on a domestic violence charge. Leelanau County Sheriff Mike Borkovich said the man, his 14- and 10-year-old daughters and 9-year-old son appeared unharmed. The children were exhausted, hungry and thirsty, authorities said.
They were discovered about 8 p.m. Monday in a rugged area of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. They were found on a hillside about a mile from where the man's car was discovered earlier in the day.
The search for the man and his children began when his wife – their mothers – called police about 10:30 a.m. Sunday, said Emmett County Sheriff Peter Wallin. "I'm not going to get into specifics on it," said Wallin. "Domestic violence involving his wife."
Borkovich said there was no indication the man would hurt his children but added, "We've got to look (out) for the best interests of the kids." Searchers used helicopter surveillance and K-9 dog teams to find the man and the children.
Authorities were still talking to the man Monday night to determine what had happened.
Details for this story were provided by the Traverse City, Mich., Record-Eagle and The Associated Press.

Stamford (AP) — More people have been sickened by tainted shellfish in Connecticut.
The Stamford Advocate reports an official from the state Department of Agriculture says 32 cases are either confirmed or under investigation. Fourteen of those are connected to clams or oysters harvested from beds off Westport and Norwalk.
The newspaper reports that 13 of the cases are unconfirmed. Five originated in harvest areas in other states.
Shellfish from Westport and Norwalk were recalled last week and state officials ordered most shellfish harvest locations closed after five people were reported sick from the naturally occurring bacteria.
The bacteria is not life-threatening, but it can cause diarrhea and other intestinal problems.
