Bakov finally played good last night. I was about to rip him on Pitts third goal, but that was all on the D.
Isles scored some gritty goals. Moulson from the tough angle, and was Bailey falling down when he chipped it in?
Doing great on the PP, too. Hope they can keep that up consistently.
Rough game for Donovan but I still like his game. Rookie growing pains. And the Enghland goal was as much on Martin as t was on Donovan.
And I was a critic of Moulson in the pre-season but all he does is score goals. It is foolish to think he is easily replaceable. He seems to just gravitate towards where the puck will be.
Trying to figure out a way to get to the game tonight. My wife took my lil one for the weekend....going to try and surprise my older son.
Sweet Jesus. Flyers haven't scored more than 2 goals in a game all year. They score 3 in the first alone.
Buffalo hasn't won a game all year. They play the isles and beat em.
Edmonton scores 2 goals in 8 seconds, breaking the previous team record. (NHL record is 7 seconds, I believe)
There's another dubious honor they also have this season so far. Can't remember.
What the fvck is with this team? I swear it's the Jets on ice.
Elevators back on the first floor.
Probably like the Jets tomorrow.
Isles just aren't that good of a team. Average, is all. A team that will contend for the eight seed, at best. Same as last year. Essentially the same team this year, so the result should be just about the same. And so far, we've nailed it.
Let's call a spade a spade.
I was gung-ho for the rookies and Nelson has looked good so far. So what does Cappy do....he benches him yet again for the likes of Regin and PMB. Donovan has not been progressing but regressing. Maybe it's the coaching, I don't know, but he is playing scared out there of making a mistake. He has been horrid the last few games.
Strome is still lingering around on an AHL team that is playing like ****. They have talent, is it the coaching, I'm going to lean towards a yes. Pellerin must go.
Until Cappy is gone we will never see the potential of what we have. But he is going nowhere, no matter how bad this team performs. That is all on the owner and Gm. He never deserved too be a head coach in the first place. He is beyond terrible not only with his line-ups but with his on ice match-ups.
At least Boulton threw some nice haymakers, it was the highlight of the game.
Lottery pick here we come.
I normally end it with a GO Isles.......But now I'm saying GO JETS and kick some bungles ass.
Just too add on. Great job Cappy playing PMB over Nelson. He was a -4 with one shot on goal and unbelievably one hit. Cappy can't go soon enough, even Tavares looks uninterested in his play so far.
And to add insult to injury, there were a ton of flyers fans last night. Took my boy to the game and there was a group of 50 or so Zflyers fans in an upper echoing two over from the Loudville Group, not to mention the others liberally sprinkled around the arena. I fear for what Tuesday will look like.
$30 for 2nd row of the 200s just inside the blue line? Can't beat that.
We're still feeling the effects of the DiPietro era as he hung around way too long when we should have been trying out other guys. I really liked Montoya and would have liked to see him developed more, although I think he's been injured for awhile. I believe he pitched a shut out recently.
Terrible offseason, should have made more of an effort for free agents. I've been a big Snow supporter, I only hope he was restrained by the cheapskate Wang. Snow seems smart enough to know that this would happen. Even we knew.

#ISLES TRANSACTION: Islanders acquire Thomas Vanek from Buffalo Sabres for Matt Moulson & picks - http://nyisl.es/qe0js
Moulson a 2014 1st and a 2015 2nd. Seems like a lot go give up for a guy hwo I don't think is signed beyond this season. Lets hope this works out.

BREAKING: #Isles have traded Matt Moulson, their 2014 1st-round pick and a 2015 2nd-round pick to Buffalo for Thomas Vanek.
Holy shyt they better be able to sign him long term. Just WOW JT finally gets his RW.
This just went from one of the ****tyist days to one of the best. Snow showing some major balls with a move like this.

This week on TNT's The Closer, Brenda and her team of crimestoppers got more than a little help on a case from no less than Det. Dick Tracy. Power down your two-way wrist radios, kids, and read on for our recap!
Provenza and Flynn are breakfasting at a diner, discussing Provenza's new joie de vivre — after dating Lauren for nine weeks, he's almost off his blood-pressure meds — when Pope joins them, to be "just one of the guys." That plan is immediately waylaid when a series of black-and-whites pull up across the street.
Provenza pulls closed the window blinds. Pope says, "Yellow tape goes up in your vicinity and that's your reaction?" As Pope dashes off to fight for truth, justice and what not, the boys begrudingly follow.

Titus Welliver probably thought he had seen it all during his run as Deadwood resident Silas Adams. But then he appeared on Lost for all of 1 minute and 45 seconds, and in short order his world — as well as that of the ABC drama — shifted forever.
Who was this mysterious "man in black" taunting Jacob on the beach in the Season 5 finale prologue? What did he mean with the observation, "They come. Fight. They destroy. They corrupt. It always ends the same"? And why did this "Man No. 2" so desperately want to find the loophole necessary to one day kill Jacob?
Welliver, who now has a recurring role on CBS' The Good Wife (premiering Sept. 22), shared a look inside the far-from-black-and-white nature of his Lost visit. See what he had to say, after the jump.

November 27, 2014
LOS ANGELES (AP) - With David Letterman retiring, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is wasting no time trying to restore the balance of late-night talk to the West Coast.
Within hours of Letterman's announcement Thursday, Garcetti sent an open letter to CBS president Leslie Moonves, encouraging him to relocate Letterman's New York-based "Late Show" to LA.
Garcetti wrote he wants "to encourage you to bring CBS' next late night show to our city - the entertainment capital of the world."
He adds that he's "aggressively seeking to encourage more production here in Los Angeles" by providing incentives to make the city more appealing.
Southern California lost a decades-old local late-night staple two months ago when Jimmy Fallon took over "The Tonight Show" from Jay Leno and moved the production from Burbank to New York.

Signal survives to play on
What a great game, but to close for comfort. The Signal Mountain Football team showed the right spirit friday night. It would have been so easy to say it's over with only 1:27 left on the clock. But, They wanted to win and would not give up. I think that the team has a lot of heart. If they bring the same heart to Trousdale County. I believe they will come home with a win. My prediction of the Signal Mountain -vs- Trousdale County is: Signal Mountain 35 / Trousdale County 28

Interview with Susan Feniger
Celebrity chef and out lesbian Susan Feniger is the author of several cookbooks and star of Food Network's long-running series, Too Hot Tamales. Most recently, Feniger was the last female chef standing on Top Chef Masters. Her latest venture, Street, a Hollywood restaurant offering global street vendor foods, is her first solo foray into the business of eating. She recently talked to us about her restaurant, her experiences competing on Top Chef Masters, and how she ended up making an inexplicable appearance on Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
AfterEllen.com: Congratulations on your great run on Top Chef Masters! What was that experience like?
Susan Feniger: You know what? I never wanted to do it. I had no desire to do it. I turned it down the first time. It's not in my nature to do competition shows.
AE: Really? I went to IMDb and I'm not so sure about that.
SF: What did it say there? Oh God!
AE: Well of course there was your hit show Too Hot Tamales, which you hosted with long-time cooking partner Mary Sue Milliken. You also appeared on Hell's Kitchen, The Next Food Network Star, should I go on?
SF: Oh yeah, but on all those I'm judging! But this was for a charity. I felt really great about doing this. I did it for the Scleroderma Research Foundation. I lost my closest friend to the disease and I do a big huge fundraiser called "Cool Comedy Hot Cuisine" with Bob Saget. I've done it for 21 years. Robin Williams has done it, like, eight times.
So doing Top Chef Masters is great. It puts you into Bravo world which is fantastic. I just didn't want to be eliminated in round one! I won $32,500 for scleroderma which was really great. Also, it's unbelievable how many people watch that show!
AE: Obviously, the show is a competition, but as you were all established food gurus competing for charity, was the environment a supportive one?
SF: I just wouldn't be in the frame of mind to be bad-mouthing anyone in that situation. No, everyone was great.
AE: Has your new restaurant, Street, been flooded with business?
SF: Yes, Street and Border Grill have felt the impact. I went out on the Kaya Toast [on the show] and so many people have come in to say, "You were robbed," because that is literally everyone's favorite dish! The fact that I lost on it has caused more interest than if I'd won on it.
AE: Is it just me, or are a lot of female chefs gay?
SF: Uh, I think, I don't know if there are a lot, or if I just know a lot. There seem to be quite a few women chefs that are gay, but you know, there are a number that aren't. It seems like there are more in San Fran than in LA. I think half and half.
It's a rigorous profession, very demanding. It could have been, years ago, more gay women did it because they weren't having kids, but you can't say that anymore. I don't know.
AE: Maybe lesbians are just better at cooking.
SF: I don't think so.
AE: This is a lesbian website! Say "yes." People will love it!
SF: You say it!
AE: Consider it said.
SF: I'm sure it's a gross generalization but … you get burned all the time, your nails are always crappy. You have to be a rough, tough girl whether you're straight or gay. I think it's a fantastic career.
I feel incredibly lucky to have found a profession where I go to work every day and I absolutely love it. Like, I was in India with my mouth hanging open just learning and learning. It's a great career where you are feeding people and nurturing and giving back.

AFRICA/CENTRAL AFRICA - Caritas Central Africa partner in a micro-credit project for families affected by the crisis
Bangui (Agenzia Fides) - Caritas Central Africa is a partner of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in a project to grant micro-credit in support of the communities affected by the crisis that the Central African Republic is experiencing.
The program provides small loans to women and young people in the 4th and the 7th district of the capital, Bangui, and the families of IDPs hosted in the 1st and 2nd district of Bangui.
The project aims to facilitate the resumption of activities such as small trades and crafts, allowing beneficiaries to have an income and achieve financial independence.
The ceremonial start of the program was held at the parish Notre Dame d'Afrique in the presence of the UN representative in the Country, Sand James and Fr. Jésus Martial Demele, General Vicar, who represented the Archbishop of Bangui, Mgr. Dieudonné Nzapalainga.
Fr. Demele pointed out that "as a result of recent events, small production units that ensured living to base communities have been destroyed, forcing the population to live in insecurity."
"The poverty in which these people have sunk is at a critical moment and its consequences affect women and children. Our project aims mainly at supporting the latter," concluded the priest.
The Central African Republic lives in a precarious state after the expulsion of President François Bozizé and the arrival of the rebels of the coalition Seleka in the capital, struggling to bring the minimum conditions of safety. (L.M.) (Agenzia Fides 03/07/2013)

Hello friends! Today we are auctioning a day bag on Instagram to help raise funds for learning supplies to schools in remote villages in the highlands of Guatemala. 100% of the auctioned item funds will go directly to buying the supplies listed below and Nena & Co. will match the final auction price. The information below is all in Spanish but the numbers speak for themselves at bottom this document and give you a good idea as to many items we need to buy! A LOT! But not more than we can all handle, right! We are trying to purchase supplies that help with child development while at play such as coloring books, coloring pencils, games, etc. The photos below are actual students enrolled in the schools we would like to send supplies to!
"HERE'S TO THE MAKERS" - Textile Traditionalist
I've been working with Scoutmob.com to get a couple of Nena & Co. bags in their shop and I'm so excited to finally see them up! Scout Mob only uses artist who take part in design of the actual product that they sell. I love that they tell you a bit about the designer and the process of making the since most of us don't realize the how much love and labor that goes into handmade pieces. So shout out to Scoutmob.com and thank you!
January 2014 100% Peace Pilgrim
Our Peace Pilgrim campaign is to promote all those good people out there that do good and touch the lives of others. I know there are plenty of Peace Pilgrims out there and Nena & Company wants to know and recognize them! Every month we want to hear from you and will pick a winner at the end of each month. The only stipulations are that you can not nominate yourself and the person you nominate must have an Instagram account. Send your nomination to firstname.lastname@example.com!
That being said, we are excited to announce our #nenapeacepilgrim winner for January! @meggo86 sent us a sweet email, introducing us to Rebecca & her husband, who had a 1 year old foster baby placed with them last year. When they found that his big sister also needed a home, they welcomed her to their family as well. Rebecca quit her job to fully embrace her new role as their mother. Upon finding out that their foster children's birth mother was expecting late last year, they brought home the brand new baby, taking them from 0-3 children in under a years time! We are humbled by @bexjomac's selfless & loving spirit, their willingness to create a family for these sweet siblings & wish them all the best in their desire to adopt all 3 children soon! Changing the course of these little lives is a sacrifice we greatly admire, so we are happy to announce @bexjomac as this months #nenapeacepilgrim!
Manuela the designer, artist, and Peace Pilgrim
Finally! The long awaited Dual Leather + Huipil clutch is here and I've been dying to share them with you. I can't go anywhere without someone stopping me to ask where I got this clutch. Its a showstopper!
The design and quality speak for itself but let me tell you about my co-designer and friend, Manuela. My mom and Manuela became friends many years ago and being an entrepreneur herself, my mom told me Manuela's story and skills and suggested I work with her.
Manuela is a survivor of the Guatemalan civil war that ran from 1960-1996. How do I summarize 36 years of genocide and corruption towards the Mayan people in a single blog post? Most people don't even know it happened! Up to 700,000 people died or went missing during the war, including 190,000 to 250,000 people who "disappeared". I think the numbers speak for themselves. The civil war left many families fatherless and without a main bread winner. But Manuela didn't let the great tragedies in her life stop her from creating a brighter future for her family and those within her reach. She used her crochet and sewing skills that she had learned as a young girl to teach widows of the war how to design and market creations to tourist. Manuela is a survivor. Manuela is a PEACE PILGRIM.
The photo below isn't the best but its the only one I could find of us working on our projects together. She's just the littlest lady you've ever met but has the biggest heart.
GIVEAWAY!!! Get Yourself a Day Bag!
Nena & Co.'s doing its first GIVEAWAY ever! Don't miss out! Follow the instructions below to enter to win! Good luck!
Day One of Twelve - Guatemala
We made it! Took a red eye out of LAX last night with Jeremy (my husband) and my Mom and Dad and made it to Guatemala City by 6am this morning. I was so excited that I the tiredness never set in until right about now. We kind of have our favorite spots picked out from previous travels here so we went straight to Antigua where we love to stay, dropped off the bags and and then were off to work - and play.
The drive to Chichicastenango was about 3 hours people! But well worth it. I was able to sort through all the beautiful Huipiles (hand-loomed tradition womens shirts) and work with my craftsmen who were ever so gracious. I'm coming out with several new styles which you'll die when you see. I can not wait to get them in my hands.
As I visited the with the boss, Donna Tomasa and Don Juan, of these craftsmen they told me that when Nena & Co placed its first order it was a blessing from God. Donna Tomasa got teary eyed and let me know that their home was burned down and they didn't know what they would do to recover their loses. Tomasa pointed to the people in the room making Nena & Co. bags and said you have given all of us work to do.
I just really wanted to share that because it put in perspective that Nena & Co. is bigger than me and you and thinking something is cute. It really is helping feed families and that motivates me more than anything. That's all for now...more to come!
The Gift of Water
I've been struggling to push myself to write on the blog. I just don't feel that excited about writing the little everyday things I have going on and I don't know that anyone else would be that interested either. Or at least I can't figure out a way to make it interesting for you. I feel kinda bad and a little embarrassed that you have to watch as I go through these growing pains of figuring out "my thing" and I've read over and over that you should write about what you know - what things you feel passionate about. Well, I'm on to my next thing!
When I started Nena & Co. it was with an admiration for the beautiful tradition of hand looming that the Maya women in Guatemala have passed down for generations. These same women have families that struggle with poverty and all the conditions of life that poverty entails and I have been toying with ways that we can all give back or help! The reality is that there are a million ways to do that and I'm going to try my hand at several projects until Nena & Co. finds the right fit or... I may just keep hopping around from project to project.
Nena & Co. is a tiny business and I get overwhelmed with the idea that we can't really make that much of a difference but then I remember the story of the starfish and how the boy helped them if only one at a time (or something like that). So that's what I'm going to focus on for now. One family at a time or even one person at a time! It will make a difference.
Here's the first of many projects; One of life's most crucial necessities is WATER! Right? Right. I can't count the amount of times my poor Aunt Lubia, who works with indigenous people of the highlands of Guatemala, has gotten sick from contaminated water she's had to drink while visiting them. Lubia's not the only one that's getting sick from the water. I learned that 1 child dies every 20 seconds some where in the world from drinking contaminated water! This is the only water that is available to some of these Maya people! Long story short, my sweet brother introduced me and my Mama to this amazing water filtration system called Lifesaver Jerrycans! The LIFESAVER® jerrycan carries 18.5 litres of water (at one time) and allows users to process up to 20,000 litres of clean sterile drinking water. By purchasing your Nena & Co. bag you have enabled us to purchase 2 of these Lifesaver Jerrycans that we will be taking to Guatemala this September and donating to families that are in need! Give yourself a good pat on the back! I am so excited about this and I can't wait to get down to Guatemala to get them in the right hands. A big thanks to Nena & Co. bag lovers every where! And stay tuned to whats next!
Poppin colors
A little background about myself - I grew up in south south south county San Diego. The exit to our house was one of the last US exits before you got to the border line to Mexico. Needless to say I was surrounded by a diverse community where hip hop ran ramped. I was totally into it. When my husband and I talk about music influences, his are like Pearl Jam, Guns and Roses and mine were more like SWV, Boyz II Men, and Tribe Called Quest. It's music that makes you want to move! I am a coordinated person but have never been known to be a great dancer, however, I was pretty sure I had a good shot at being a "Fly Girl" dancer on the show "In Living Color." The show J-Low got her start with before she went big time! My point is, if you get what I'm saying right now, then you'll get a lot of the way I write, think and dress. If not...I think you'll catch on anyway. The 90's are back! Right?! I just can't get enough.
Pink Beauty
Oh Heather... you're a vision in those patterns and that pink! Heather is a friend and a talented independent producer with an eye for beauty. She was recently spotted at a floral workshop in LA hosted by blogger DesignLoveFest.com and she brought her Nena & Co. bag along for the fun!
xoxo Heather!
PS I posted this around July 13th and may have missed the "publish" button. Sorry I've been keeping this gem to myself!
UTAH Trunk Show went off the chain! ...or something.
No really, Nena & Co.'s first trunk show could not have been better! We introduced 63 new styles which was fantastic because there really was something for everyone. I had to say adios to a few I had my eye on but they went to capable hands. It's weird that my heart kinda sinks, just a little, when I see a bag go because I want everyone to know how much each bag means to me. I tried to take the time to explain how each bag is made and who made them which is a big part of why I'm so passionate about Nena & Co. but there were more people than I could get to. That's a good problem!
We're back home in Southern California and its good to be back. Gearing up to get all these new weekender and day bags up on the site so ya'll have something to look at! Stay tuned....
Baby in a bag.
Today was such a sweet day. I love girlfriends and I love when I can see my friends progress and grow in whatever way that may be. Sometimes growing means new babies and this sweet little baby slipped right into her mama's new Nena & Co. day bag that she says will double as her diaper bag.
PS I know the baby looks scared but I snapped a shot right in the middle of a laugh... This is him on his way to a big smile.
First Nena & Co. trunk show in Utah!!!!
Jeremy (my hubby) and I are headed to Utah for his family reunion and I decided we should make the most of the trip, lug a bunch of Nena & Co. bags out there, and experiment with our first "trunk show" ever! It's called "Mi Casa Es Su Casa Nena & Co. Trunk Show"! Where you'll of course get 20% off your purchase because of the special occasion.
I'm also thrilled to announce 12 NEW styles that you'll die for! So if you are in the Utah area be sure to clear your calendar on Tuesday July 23rd from 6-9pm. I'm going to put my Abuelita (grandma) to work and have her make some yummy Guatemala dish...or I'll at least use her recipe.
See you there!
It's a secret...
Today my sister-in-law Whitney, a total babe who I'm cray cray for, helped me with a special project we're working on. My hair is a little hint. Know any famous Mexican ladies with a similar 'do'? There actually might be a lot of them but she's the most famous. I decided I'm officially a bag lady after looking at this photo.
Look at that hair! I'm sure there are a lot of ladies out there that think their mom is perfect. I'm in the club too. Born and raised in Guatemala City, she met and married my sweet dad and they moved to the USA. New language, new family, new country and she was still able to draw from her creative juices and blossom into a daring entrepreneur.
Being around my mom and learning from her has inspired me to start Nena & Company. Lucky for me, since she's my mom, she basically had to sign on as a business partner. I know at some point we're suppose to "cut the umbilical cord" but why ruin a beautiful thing.
Rockn' a mu'mu!
Ok, maybe they aren't beach bags but that's exactly what I use my Nena & Co. Weekender Bag for. It ends up holding anything I could possibly need for a beach day except the chair and umbrella, but you could almost fit a small child in there. Don't do the child thing. And yes, I'm wearing a mu'mu' from Guatemala. I'm obsessed with all the colorful textiles from there and not only that, its the most comfortable dress I've ever worn in my life...in public.
Got some legit fans/friends!
Meet my lady friends Sarah and Lori. A girl couldn't ask for better friends with great style and awesome support. They live close by and wanted to be my first customers and my first customer they are! XOXO
Loomed patterns and brilliant colors!
Again, sometimes it's hard to see the detail on these beautiful bags and I would never want the meticulously loomed weave to be mistaken for a detailed print. That's like comparing an original painting to a print...it'll never compare. Lets get up close and personal. #nofilter #brilliantcolor
Day Bag vs Weekender Bag
Day bag vs Weekender bag...the age old question. What to do, what to do? In all honesty, if it were me buying the bags (which is the scenario I was in before I started Nena & Co.) and if I HAD to choose; hands down the Weekender!
Its so hard to tell how great they are through a computer screen but they are the ultimate way to travel in style. Maybe you won't use it everyday but you'll sure be happy the next time you road trip it or use it as your carry on and get the stare of jealousy from all the other girls on the plane.
I'm surrounded
Have you ever seen that movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona by Woody Allen? It's mildly scandalous but more quirky than weird. There is a part where "Cristina" realizes her circle of friends are all artist and she finds herself frustrated that she has no talent to show who she truly is. Cristina later feels so inspired by her peers that eventually she finds a medium to express herself. I get how she feels. ALL of my friends seem to have these talents that are not only praiseworthy but marketable too (who I'll feature on this blog from time to time). I've been considering opening this boutique for years but have felt too intimidated to do so until one day I thought "why not." I literally could not think of a single reason, so, here we are and I have a good feeling about it. I'm not a great writer. I'm not even a good one but guess what? I'm going to blog the crap out of this site.
Below is a shot by Russ & Reyn taken for our wedding in 2012. Check out their website you'll get what I mean by talented. I can't get enough of this time of my life. I like to call this one "Married to a Mystery."

LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) - A 41-year-old Sulphur man who allegedly had inappropriate sexual contact with children attending church-related functions at his home has been sentenced to prison.
The American Press reports that Michael Anthony Thibodeaux pleaded guilty Wednesday to two counts of indecent behavior with juveniles. One of the counts was amended from sexual battery, and another sexual battery charge was dismissed.
State District Judge Ron Ware sentenced Thibodeaux to seven years in prison on each count to run concurrently. Three years of the sentence was suspended, and he will have to serve the remaining
four years without the benefit of parole.
Prosecutors told Ware that Thibodeaux had inappropriate contact with two children - one under the age of 13 and the other older
than 13 - between January 2007 and June 2009.

Hamilton, New Ze...
I completely fell in love with this material when I saw it. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it too. I drafted the pattern from scratch (not that it was particularly difficult) but had trouble finding lining which matched – turns out I have lots of cream and off-white linen, but not this white-white. It was interesting sewing on the handles (I only accidentally sewed the bag together once), I sewed them onto the outside, then sewed on the lining (having to pin the handles down so they didn't get in the way). Next time I'd probably sew the handles on the outside of the bag before I sewed it together (would create a nicer finish on the bottom). But overall, fairly proud of my work!

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/09/13 -- Sangoma Technologies Corporation (TSX VENTURE:STC), a leading provider of hardware and software components that enable or enhance IP Communications Systems for both voice and data, announced it has received multiple awards from Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC), a global integrated media company and publisher of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine. Sangoma's NetBorder Lync Express was awarded the INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award, and the company received INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Awards for its Vega Gateway Series, the Vega 400 Session Border Controller (SBC), and the A116 16-Span Digital Telephony Interface Board. In addition, Sangoma has been selected by The Branham Group for inclusion in the 2012 Branham300, which recognizes Canadian technology leaders.
"Sangoma has a long-standing reputation for delivering well-engineered and high-quality solutions to the enterprise, service provider, and OEM markets, and we are honored to receive recognition from both TMC and The Branham Group for our ability to anticipate and address customer needs," said Bill Wignall, president and chief executive officer of Sangoma. "Sangoma is fortunate to have an extremely talented and dedicated group of engineering, marketing and operations professionals, along with an outstanding network of partners and resellers who are singly focused on serving the needs of their customers. These awards are a testament to the outstanding results they've been able to achieve in the past year, which is even more impressive when global economic factors are taken into consideration."
Sangoma's NetBorder Lync Express is a recent example of how Sangoma was able to quickly deliver a breakthrough product to address tangible customer needs. Designed to facilitate deployment of the Microsoft Lync Unified Communications solution, the NetBorder Lync Express is the only all-in-one Microsoft Lync-certified appliance available in the market. This versatile 1U appliance serves businesses with up to 240 users, and includes all Lync software and server components, as well as an integrated VoIP gateway. This simple-to-install appliance takes the complexity out of deploying Lync for small and medium businesses and enterprise customers.
Sangoma's award-winning Vega Gateway Series offers a broad range of IP-to-TDM stand-alone gateway devices designed to bridge disparate technologies easily and cost-effectively. Vega gateways provide the perfect answer for IP-based voice services and for connecting to service provider broadband networks or the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).
The Vega 400 SBC allows service providers and enterprises to deploy SIP trunking and other SIP services, safe in the knowledge that there will be no interoperability issues. Delivered in a 1U chassis, the Vega 400 SBC secures up to 60 simultaneous SIP sessions.
"Sangoma's field-proven expertise in interconnecting disparate systems that use different technologies, protocols, signaling, and encoding is imbued in all of our products ranging from the Vega Gateways to our award-winning telephony interface boards," said Doug Vilim, Sangoma's vice president of worldwide sales. "The communications landscape, from the smallest office to the largest service provider network, is comprised of many disparate elements that must be cost-effectively bridged. And even in a homogenous IP network, providing secure IP-to-IP connectivity - while seamlessly smoothing out the bumps caused by different codecs, signaling, and SIP implementations - are crucial to the efficient operation of the network."
The A116 16-Span Telephony Interface Board provides twice the span-density of any other board in the market. This powerful solution enables unmatched capacity in a single server, supporting up to 480 simultaneous voice calls from a single server expansion slot. The board supports T1, E1, and J1 standards, and like other Sangoma boards, features a lifetime warranty.
"Competitors have just recently achieved stability with 8-span boards - something Sangoma accomplished three years ago," noted Vilim. "The A116 board provides solution developers with a dramatic advantage in power, space, and capacity that is winning deals all over the world."
"Sangoma has consistently provided reliable solutions for an increasingly complex communications landscape. We are pleased to recognize a number of the company's most recent products with the 2012 INTERNET TELEPHONY Excellence Award for Sangoma's dedication and excellence in advancing IP communications," stated Rich Tehrani, chief executive officer of TMC. "We are also proud to recognize the NetBorder Lync Express with the 2012 INTERNET TELEPHONY Product of the Year Award for simply and elegantly addressing a growing need in the unified communications marketplace. It is the perfect example of a forward-thinking, problem solving product that can make a demonstrable impact in the market by accelerating the mass adoption of unified communications solutions."
Sangoma's industry-leading solution portfolio enables the interworking of a wide variety of disparate TDM and IP networks, clouds, protocols, services, devices, and applications. Its portfolio includes award-winning voice and data boards, transcoding and gateway software, standalone gateway appliances for SS7 and TDM-to-SIP, wireless boards, multiplexers, Microsoft Lync gateways, and session border controllers. These products are designed for simple integration with open source and closed source IP PBX applications, contact centers, unified communications systems and service provider networks.

The major cloud platforms defy a simple, side-by-side analysis. Each of the major IaaS public-cloud platforms offers their own unique strengths and functionality. Options for on-site private cloud are diverse as well, and must be designed and deployed while taking existing legacy architecture and infrastructure into account. Then the reality is that most enterprises are embarking on a hybrid cloud strategy and programs. In this Power Panel at 15th Cloud Expo (http://www.CloudComputingExpo.com), moderated by Ashar Baig, Research Director, Cloud, at Gigaom Research, Nate Gordon, Director of T...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things. The difference ...

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.

Since then I have made it numerous times and given away lots of little jars at Christmas. It is delicious served with cream cheese and crackers.

A St. Louis physician invented peanut butter in 1890 to provide his patients with an easy-to-digest, high protein food. Several dozen commercial brands of peanut butter were on the market by 1914, and in 1923 a process was invented to keep the oil and peanut butter from separating. Peanut butter is a blend of ground shelled peanuts, vegetable oil and salt. You can make it yourself in a blender or food processor.plural: peanut butter
Season: available year-round
How to select: Sold in both creamy and chunky (with bits of peanuts) style. Natural peanut butter does not contain any additives to keep the oil from separating.
How to store: Natural peanut butter must be refrigerated after opening and will last 6 months this way, while other commericial kinds will last as long at room temperature.
How to prepare: Used commonly as a sandwich spread, a favorite of children, as well as a primary ingredient in many desserts as well as savory sauces.
Substitutions: almond butter, cashew butter or other nut butter

All this time I've been desk surfing at work - busy, busy election season, you know - Geoff's been overhauling bikes like it's his job. He spent the past two on my mountain bike. Since yesterday he removed just about every moving part, greased it up, installed a new chainring and chain (my last one was stretched two inches from its original length), massively degreased the drivetrain, re-adjusted both the derailleurs and pumped up the rear shock. I don't even knowing what else he did to it when I wasn't looking. I, um, cleaned the cassette. Yeah, I've been working pretty hard.
I haven't had a chance to ride it yet, but I feel confident in making the statement that this is pretty much the best Gary Fisher women's specific Sugar 3+ mountain bike of unspecified year ... ever. I think the green sticker on the handlebars is what really puts it on top. That sticker has survived more rain and mud and abuse than even the headset could handle. You know that's quality craftmanship, right there. Thanks, Carlos :-).
As this all came down, and as my mountain bike became temporarily unrideable, I had a little time to reflect on how emotionally attached I can become to certain inanimate objects. It's interesting, because I'm not exactly one of those people who goes nuts about "stuff." I make a terrible consumer. I never buy anything new. I wear all my outdoor gear into the ground and then grind it further into the dirt just for good measure. Then, when it finally comes time to toss it away, I never give it a second thought.
But every once in a while, something clicks. I think about a happy memory or a harrowing adventure, and I remember the object and the way it carried me though. It's rare, but therein lies the beginning of an attachment that runs deep, a vulnerable yet sincere emotion so close to human that when I say I "love" my Sugar, I'll almost mean it. I actually feel this way about my car. People give me a lot of crap for this - it's a 1996 Geo Prism, 145,000 miles, lucky if it's still worth more than $1,000. But I've had it for six years. It's taken me across dozens of states and most of the Canadian provinces. It's been driven over boulders and 100-mile-long dirt roads. It's been bashed into a parked car and pummelled by a downed sycamore tree. I'm convinced that when it does cease to run, I'll cease to own a car. But not until then.
Now, I look at Sugar in his dozens of pieces, and I think that I'll probably just continue to fix him up, add new parts, do what I can to keep him on the trail until the frame disintegrates (or I do.) I know that's not what's actually going to happen. Mountain bike relationships aren't meant to last forever. But it's romantic to pretend it could.

|by Mr Credit Card
Here's a question I got recently from a reader:
I have a question reguarding applying for credit cards. I am fairly new with credit, just have one credit card now and it is a retail store's (Von Maur) that I have had for a little over 6 months and has no balance currently, have never been late with payments, etc. Now I am looking to relocate for a job (I am currently unemployed and a college grad). To move across the country, I was looking into applying for a card that can earn airline miles.
Is this possible? Or do I need to get a "bad/no credit" credit card to establish more credit first?
(I live with my parents and paid cash for my car so rent, etc. will not help my credit score)
thank you so much for your help/advice!
I asked her a few more questions:
Mr Credit Card – Firstly, you should be able to get a card based on the fact that you already have a card and hence a history. Question is :
1. what miles do you want to earn? eg continental, american airlines delta?
2. Why and where do you intend to use the miles to fly ? eg from where to where and why?
3. how much would you charge to the card a month (assuming you pay in full).
trying answering these questions and we should be able to give a good suggestion.
hank you so much for your quick feedback!! First, I am looking at American airlines since their main hub is in Dallas/for worth, where I am looking to move. I would be using miles back and forth to Indianapolis As far as monthly charges, I don't plan to use the card for everything, but imagine uses like gas, groceries, etc
I asked her one last question:
Mr Credit Card – how much would an average airline ticket cost from dallas to indianapolis (I know I could check but thought you would know it off the top of your head?).
I've been looking recently and it looks like around 250-300 roundtrip
Answer – Ok- let's start with a few basic facts.
Key Decision – They key decision you have to make is whether to get a Citi AA Card (with annual fee) or get a travel rewards credit card without annual fee.
Here are some other things to consider. The first is the award redemption for American Airlines AAdvantage Program. For flights within the Continental USA (relevant in your case), there are two award tiers. The first is the MilesSAAver award at 12,500 miles. The other is the AAnytime award at 25,000 miles. These are both valid for economy class tickets.
The MilesSAAver award is less flexible in terms of dates and availability. The AAnytime award is more flexible and you can get a flight as long as seats are available when you book them.
The Case For AAdvantage Credit Card – You choice of whether to get no annual fee travel rewards credit card or the American Airlines Visa will depend on whether you are able to use the MileSAAver award over the AAnytime award (you need half the miles). If you tend to book your fligh way in advance and have some flexibility in your calendar, then it would appear that the AA card will be better for you (or a card that let's you convert points into AA miles).
If this is the situation then the choice is between the Citi® Gold/AAdvantage® World MasterCard® and the Starwood Preferred Guest Credit Card. As a background, there are three versions of the AA card, the Bronz, Gold and Platinum version. The issue that I have with them is that despite an annual fee that you pay, you do not earn double miles. Among the three, the Gold version is the best to get (it has a $50 annual fee).
But you can also consider getting the Starwood Preferred Guest credit card from American Express. The reason is that Starwood allows you to transfer points into AA miles at a one for one ratio. Plus, when you transfer 20,000 points into miles, you get 5,000 bonus miles for free (it is as though Starwood would rather you redeem points with their airline partners than at their hotels!). The annual fee is $65.
Case for No Annual Fee Travel Credit Cards – If you find that you are redeeming flights using the AAnytime award, you are probably marginally better off with the Blue Sky from American Express. With this card, you earn 1 point for every dollar that you spend on the card (same as AA card). But you only need 7,000 points to redeem $100 in statement credit. You can book your flights any way you want (with AA or with online sites) and you will receive a statement credit based on how many points you have earned.
Since you flights will cost about $250 to $300, the value you get using the Blue Sky is not much different from the AA cards. Furthermore, the Blue Sky has no annual fee (though there is an annual fee version that allows you to claim for baggage fees up to a certain amount a year).
Another card to consider is the Chase Freedom. You can redeem points on their online travel portal or like the Blue Sky, you can use any travel agent and use points to pay for that travel expense. The advantage this card has is that being a cash back credit card, you could earn more than 1% rebates on many types of spending. They have 5% rebate on categories that rotate quarterly. They also have an online shopping portal where you can earn extra rebates when you shop with their partners. This card might just enable you to rack up more points than the Blue Sky.
Conclusion – The choice at the end of the day really depends on the type of award you would use with AA and how much you spend on the card (which to a certain extent, determines whether a card with annual fee is worth it).
Good Luck.
