What's Going On With Rizzo Tees? An Update
I started Rizzo Tees back in 2007 with the entrepreneurial dream of growing it out of control. I wanted to build a big, strong, healthy business, and of course I wanted to leave my CPA/Accounting life behind. While Rizzo Tees remains small today, I was able to escape the accounting world over two years ago. I've mentioned this several times (here and here), but I can say it once more: you have no idea what this career change has truly meant to me.
What of Rizzo Tees now? I've had a few people tell me they've noticed a change in my content output over the last year. They say I've moved away from t-shirt promotion and more towards discussion of new media strategy. I believe they are right. I'd say my job at Falk Harrison has a great deal to do with that. Finally, a job that I can enjoy!
Rizzo Tees remains in business, tees are still in stock and people are still buying them (especially the bacon ones). But my interests have changed in important ways. Listen to the podcast below to hear more about the direction I'm headed.
Click here for the 5-minute podcast.
I'd love to hear from you in the comments below.

Two Anniversaries of Note
Several things of note:
1. Sorry for all the background noise. It was loud in City Coffee, and since I was a little self-conscious about doing a video, I didn't speak loud enough.
2. Sorry for the up close shot. I suppose my forehead IS that big.
I am celebrating two anniversaries today – one traditional, and one less so. I started at Falk Harrison one year ago today. Thank you for keeping me on board for an entire year! I am so happy to be here and hope to get even more done in year two.
And thank you to David Siteman Garland, otherwise known as The Rise To The Top. Two years ago today, I met David for coffee, and he said something to me that changed the direction of my career. We were talking about social media, thought leadership, his career, etc., and I expressed a hesitance to offer my advice and expertise on the subject of social media. I was still a CPA at the time, living in secret at my old CFO job. I told him that I didn't feel qualified to offer advice, because I had not accomplished anything yet – had not "hit the big time" or whatever. Because of that, I wondered why anyone would listen to me. David said, "Chris, who cares? You know your business, you know about social, so there's no time like the present. Start sharing now. People will want to hear from you."
From that moment on, I thought of myself in a different way. He convinced me that there was no perfect point in the future, with "X" amount of success achieved, to begin blogging and giving speeches and offering advice. Since then I've done almost 200 blog posts and have not looked back.
David, thank you for the advice. And Falk Harrison, thank you for the job.
P.S. The video below was shot exactly one year ago. I looked a bit different back then!

New Falk Harrison Blog Post: The 5 Unforgettables of Our New Social World
Just a quick note here to direct you over to my employer's blog… I've written a post there called "The 5 Unforgettables of Our New Social World."
The reason for the post: I am constantly asked about my social media following: how it got so big, how I keep up with it, how I come up with things to post about, etc. These are what I call the "what" and "how" questions, and they often lead me to believe that the questioner has not considered the "why" question first. Why do we do what we do, and how can I get you to care? That is a fundamental question that every company must answer.
So instead of instructing you on how often to post, what tools to use, where to post or what to post about (the "what" and "how" questions), I took a step back and considered some key principles to live by. These core principles are what I'm now calling "The 5 Unforgettables." I believe that understanding these principles and taking them to heart will equip you to answer some of those "what" and "how" questions for yourself.
Let me know what you think.

For the beginning of the Fall School season, we are offering our students and those interested in taking our online course, a series on "Distance Learning Best Practices", plus other assorted tidbits, helps and hints.
So to start things off, here are a few questions you need to ask yourself:
First, do you have the time to devote to an online study course? Many think that the convenience of online work means less hours required to complete the same amount of work in a classrooom setting. Online class work takes the same, if not more time initially, than an onsite college or vocational class. An online course may save you commute time plus you get to choose your own hours. But typically, students don't weigh the temptation that comes with online work. Let me put it this way. We say to ourselves: "There is often something else more pressing, I can fit in my online studies when I have nothing better to do, I am not facing a strict deadline with my teacher or evaluator,...," and the list of excuses builds from there.
And if you are starting out new to online distance learning, the style of course work, emails, working with an email program on your computer, time between sending a lesson and the response time,... all this and more can add minutes if not hours to your weekly work schedule. Add to that family time, socializing, meals, and the vast minutiae of stuff that enters our day to day living and online time for homework and lessons can easily be forgotten or thought to be not as pressing as other demands.
Here is UMA's suggested TIME REQUIRED to complete UMA course work:
10- 15 hours per week. This is equal to a 9 credits course load at a university or college.
Okay. That's the start to this series. More later.
UMA is now back blogging again after a long summer sojourn and infrequent blogging throughout the summer. So to start things off, I have posted a recent NY Times article on food mistakes parents often make with their children:
Six Food Mistakes Parents Make...
John and Trudy
Regarding environmental issues and how they may impact you and your family, go to:
Here is a link to an interesting conference and other information regarding the child and brain research:
UMA is developing more video tutorials for UMA students. Here's a sample:
I thought these random thoughts from Dr. Montessori might be of some help:
"Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed."
"The greatest sign of success for a teacher... is to be able to say, 'The children are now working as if I did not exist.'"
"If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men."
"Free the child's potential, and you will transform him into the world."
"Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war."
"The first idea the child must acquire is that of the difference between good and evil."
"One test of the correctness of educational procedure is the happiness of the child."
"That humanity which is revealed in all its intellectual splendor during the sweet and tender age of childhood should be respected with a kind of religious veneration. It is like the sun which appears at dawn or a flower just beginning to bloom. Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life."

Asia Stocks Weighed Down By Europe Debt Woes
By PAMELA SAMPSON
BANGKOK (AP) â¿¿ Asian stock markets were mostly higher Friday as momentum carried over from yet another record high on Wall Street.
The Standard and Poor's 500 index closed at a record Thursday, driven by more encouraging data on the U.S. economic recovery. The government said the economy grew at an annual rate of 0.4 percent in the October-December quarter, slightly better than previous estimates. The revision reflected stronger business investment and export sales.
South Korea's Kospi rose 0.7 percent to 2,006.41. Mainland China's Shanghai Composite Index added 0.4 percent to 2,244.79. Taiwan's TAIEX also advanced. Markets in Hong Kong, India, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Philippines and Singapore for holidays.In Japan, however, the benchmark Nikkei 225 index slipped marginally to 12,331.44 as the yen leveled off against the dollar and the government released figures for February showing the country's jobless rate edging up while industrial production fell slightly. Newly appointed central bank governor, Haruhiko Kuroda, has pledged to work with the government to end decades of growth-inhibiting deflation. His outspoken calls for action have raised hopes for results â¿¿ but analysts said they may also have created unrealistic expectations for a turnaround. "Unfortunately, the markets' expectations of the new Governor are so high that they will be almost impossible to meet, let alone beat," said analysts at Capital Economics in a market commentary. In Europe on Thursday, markets responded positively to the calm reopening of Cyprus's banks. Banks in the Mediterranean island nation were shut for nearly two weeks as the government negotiated a rescue loan from international lenders to prevent the financial system from collapsing. The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares, Germany's DAX and France's CAC-40 all closed higher Thursday. Italy's political uncertainty will also remain in the spotlight. Following inconclusive elections around a month ago, the country is still without a government, and that's raised concerns over its future economic path. Italy is the third-largest economy of the 17 countries that use the euro.

Addressing Climate Change in the Rutgers Community
+ Tracking Environmental Stewardship in Partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection AgencyA Memorandum of Understanding was signed by Rutgers University on November 3, 2009 with the United States Environmental Protection Agency pledging to become an environmental steward through implementation of a number of green initiatives that would reduce its carbon footprint and further improve our planet's environment.This partnership between the EPA and Rutgers University has resulted in reducing energy, water and solid waste production across campus operations. Between November 2009 and November 2012, Rutgers has managed to reduce its carbon footprint by an estimated 194,797 Metric Tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (MTCO2e) and save an estimated $22,955,000 in operating expenses. In addition, the University is currently a member of the United States Green Building Council, the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education, the New Jersey Higher Education Partnership for Sustainability, as well an Energy Star and Combined Heat and Power Partner with the EPA.

+ Energy Use and Generation
Cogeneration. Since 1995 Rutgers has operated a cogeneration energy plant on Busch Campus that provides electricity and heating to both its Livingston and Busch campuses. The plant produces 13.5 million watts of power daily, enough to meet 90% of the energy demand of Livingston and Busch campuses at the time of construction and was awarded the Combined Heat and Power Certificate of Recognition by the EPA's EnergyStar program in 2000. The plant has reduced CO2 emissions by 70,000 tons and saved between one and two million dollars per year in energy costs since its construction. On average, the plant produces 76 million kWh per year and produces an average of 4 million therms per year for heating on Busch and Livingston. Cogeneration power plants produce two types of energy from a single fuel. The Busch plant burns natural gas to generate electricity via a turbine generator, while the heat generated from burning the natural gas is then used to heat pressurized water that is then pumped into buildings to be used for heating. Normal power plants tend to operate at about 35-45% efficiency, while cogeneration power plants like the one on Busch operate at about 75% efficiency. Additionally, the piping system that carries the super-heated water from the cogeneration plant to buildings on Busch and Livingston was recently upgraded to provide better insulation and is expected to save the University an additional $2,520,000 in fuel costs and reduce CO2 emissions by 4,570,000 pounds annually. There are also currently plans in the works to expand the facility.
Solar Power. In 2009, Rutgers completed installation of a 1.4 megawatt solar farm that generates approximately 11% of the electrical demand of Livingston Campus, and is expected to save the University more than $200,000 per year in energy costs, as well as earning Solar Renewable Energy Certificates. Currently running at 95% efficiency on a good day, the 7-acre solar farm reduces Rutgers's carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1,300 tons per year and will offset the need to purchase power or draw on the capacity of the University's cogeneration power plant.
As of January 2013, Rutgers successfully completed construction of an additional 8.01 megawatts of solar generating capacity by installing solar canopies over 28 acres of parking space on Livingston Campus, making it one of the largest solar canopy arrays in the country. The canopies will be able to power 51% of Livingston Campus and will reduce the University's CO2 emissions by 6,364 tons per year. Over a 28 year period the project is expected to provide the University with a net savings of $28 million. The combined solar energy capacity on Livingston Campus generates enough power to satisfy 63% of the electrical demand of the campus.
Geothermal Energy. As of September 1, 2013, Rutgers successfully completed a geothermal energy project on Livingston Campus. By using the Earth's stable core temperature, geothermal energy now offsets energy costs for heating and cooling of the new Rutgers School of Business-New Brunswick building. The project consists of 321 wells at a depth of 500 feet to provide 700 tons of cooling annually.
Energy Conservation. With the help of New Jersey's Clean Energy rebate program, Rutgers was able to replace existing motors in air handlers, cooling towers, exhaust fans, and circulating pumps with EPAct high efficiency motors, as well as install variable-frequency drives which increase efficiency to an even greater degree. As a result the University has been able to save 2.8 kWh of electricity and 1,500 tons of CO2.
Through the use of American Reinvestment Act funds, gas boilers at the Rutgers EcoComplex were retrofitted with new burners that use carbon-neutral landfill gas for 80% of its operating hours, as well as technology that slows the airflow over the burner tips, allowing for complete combustion of the landfill gas. The project is anticipated to save the University $104,600 annually in energy costs.
With support from PSE&G's Direct Install Program, the first phase of a five year project to replace existing light fixtures with higher efficiency ones and add motion sensors was recently completed and is expected to save the University just under $1,000,000 per year in electric costs. The estimated energy savings at the completion of the entire project is 42 kWh of electricity per year.
All new buildings and major renovations at the University are required to be built to LEED Silver Standards which has been shown to provide energy savings of at least 20%.
During holidays and school breaks Rutgers takes steps to conserve energy by reducing heating and lighting in most university buildings, as well as turning off computers and other electrical equipment.
Innovation. The Rutgers Energy Institute hosts the annual Energy Innovation Contest, a cash-prize contest which asks undergraduate students to devise innovative and implementable solutions to reducing energy consumption at Rutgers.
Each year, the New Brunswick/Piscataway campuses compete in a campus vs. campus electrical energy reduction competition. The campus that reduces the most energy during a specific month as compared to the year before wins a roving trophy provided by PSE&G. In 2013, the New Brunswick/Piscataway campuses will initiate a campus dormitory vs. campus dormitory electrical energy reduction competition in concert with the Campus Conservation National Competition. This will be an internal competition but allow Rutgers residence life to see how it compares with other residence life energy consumption around the country.
+ Recycling and Waste Reduction
Recycling and Waste Reduction saves on disposal and energy costs, removes unsightly dumpsters and minimizes the number of indoor receptacles and plastic bags while reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with transportation, landfilling or thermal combustion as well as the emissions associated with the extraction and processing of new raw materials rather than re-use of existing materials. Further information about the benefits of recycling and waste reduction is provided here.
Single Stream Recycling. In 2011, Rutgers instituted single stream recycling, changing more than 12,000 receptacles in offices and hallways. Single stream recycling systems allow for all paper, plastics, metals and other recyclable materials to be mixed together instead of having to be sorted separately at the time of disposal. This reduces costs and increases the participation and efficiency of recycling.
RecycleMania. Since 2007 Rutgers has won seven consecutive RecycleMania Gorilla Prizes for overall recycling, a nationwide recycling competition for environmentally friendly colleges and universities that features over 700 entrants. The Gorilla Prize is awarded to the academic institution that recycles the greatest overall amount of material during the course of the competition. During the eight week contest in the spring of 2013, the Rutgers community recycled 1,519,216 tons of material.
Rutgers Football: 0 Waste Did you know that Rutgers 2012 football season was our first "Zero Waste" season? During the 2012 campaign, we composted 9.68 tons of solid waste, recycled 101.48 tons of solid waste, landfilled 0.00 tons of solid waste, and saved over $4,000 in disposal fees. A winning season on and off the field!
Trash Compaction. With the help of Waste Management of New Jersey, Rutgers installed 10 pairs of smart, solar-powered trash compactors in New Brunswick and Camden. "Big Belly" compactors were installed which produce 35 to 40 pound cubes, five times as much trash as a normal container of its size. These smart compactors alert staff via email when its time for pickup, thereby reducing labor and fuel costs.
Recycling Kiosks. PepsiCo has introduced recycling kiosks in the Rutgers student centers.
Project Move Out. Rutgers has partnered with the city of New Brunswick in a pilot program called Project Move Out, aimed at off-campus students, to collect unwanted furniture, electronics and appliances at the end of the spring semester. In the spring of 2012, Rutgers, in partnership with Waste Management of New Jersey, retrieved 45 tons of bulk waste and five tons of electronics, which were then either recycled or sent to a waste-to-energy plant.
+ Dining Services and Local Produce
Recycling and Reuse. Rutgers University Dining Services has food pulping systems in all dining facilities. All discarded and leftover food is pulverized and water is extracted at an 8:1 ratio; the water waste is then recycled back into the same system. The remaining organic matter is pasteurized, picked up by a farmer and used as pig feed.
Food Waste to Energy. Rutgers is piloting a food digestion system at the new Livingston Dining Hall which utilizes equipment to pulp and convert leftover food to energy for use on site.
Reusable Canvas Bags At the start of the 2012 fall semester the University Dining Services gave out reusable canvas bags in an effort to reduce the amount of plastic bags used when serving takeout meals as opposed to the more than 1.5 million plastic bags that were given out during the 2011-2012 school year. After the start of the semester students can purchase the canvas bags for $1.
Purchasing From Local Vendors. Rutgers Dining Services purchases its produce from three local vendors: Medoff in New Brunswick, Baldor Produce just outside Hunts Point Market, and Ambrogi Produce in Thorofare, NJ. Purchasing local produce lowers fuel usage, which reduces the carbon impact food has on the environment.
Farm Markets. Since 2008, the Rutgers School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, in partnership with the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station has sponsored the Rutgers Farm Market at the Rutgers Gardens which provides a variety of products grown and produced locally, such as meat, cheese, vegetables, poultry, and baked goods. Since 2009, Rutgers New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station in partnership with Johnson & Johnson has sponsored the New Brunswick Community Farmers Market. In 2012, the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences Governing Council with assistance from the Rutgers Administration and the New Brunswick Farmer's Marker established a seasonal Jersey Fresh Farmer's Market behind the bookstore on Cook Campus during the fall. Each of these markets provides access to local products for members of the Rutgers community, as well as our neighbors, reducing our collective carbon footprint.
+ Transportation
Electric Charging.The University is working on a prototype recharging network for electric cars powered by the Busch cogeneration plant and Livingston solar arrays. There are two ChargePoint America recharging systems for electric cars at the Rutgers Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation on Busch campus and one behind Martin Hall on Cook Campus. The University is currently in the process of installing four more charging stations on Livingston Campus that will utilize the newly constructed solar parking canopies as a source of power.
The charging stations are part of a Rutgers Energy Institute initiative called the Rutgers Solar-to-Vehicle Project which aims at collecting data in order to analyze trends pertaining to electric car usage and the viability of using solar energy to power such vehicles.
Alternative Fuel Vehicles. The University maintains a fleet of alternative fueled vehicles which included 14 cars and 4 pickup trucks that run on Compressed Natural Gas as of 2007. Emissions from natural gas vehicles are much lower than gasoline powered vehicles and a Rutgers EcoComplex demonstration project has shown the viability of producing natural gas for vehicle use from landfill gas. Additionally, in 2006 the University began utilizing a blend of Biodiesel in nearly all New Brunswick and Piscataway campus vehicles, including the entire school bus fleet. The Rutgers bus system is the second largest in New Jersey behind NJ Transit and is operated by First Transit.
Bike Rental Program. The University Department of Transportation in conjunction with the Rutgers Green Purchasing Program and the Rutgers Energy Institute maintains 150 bikes available for student rental at central locations throughout the New Brunswick Campus. Once users register they may access the automated bike rental system and check out bikes for $10 per month or $25 per semester.
+ Green Purchasing
Vendor Contracts. Under the University's innovative Green Purchasing Program all contracts with vendors contain language requiring that vendors help the University minimize waste and maximize environmental responsibility and leadership. The University uses techniques such as life-cycle analysis to track nearly all goods and products coming and leaving the three Rutgers campuses in New Brunswick, Newark and Camden in order identify potential areas for waste reduction.
+ More Recycling and Energy Efficiency Facts
In 2010, Americans generated 250 million tons of trash. Of that, over 85 million tons was recycled or composted (34.1%) which is equivalent to removing over 186 million metric tons of carbon dioxide.
- An average American generates 4.43 pounds of trash per day and recycles or composts 1.51 pounds per day.
- In 2010, Americans recycled 8 million tons of metals (aluminum, steel, etc…), which eliminated more than 26 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, equivalent to removing more than 5 million cars from the road for one year.
- Every ton of mixed paper recycled can save the energy equivalent of 165 gallons of gasoline. Recycling just 1 ton of aluminum cans conserves more than 207 million Btu, equivalent of 36 barrels of oil or 1665 gallons of gasoline.
- In 2006, recycling in New Jersey saved 235 trillion Btu, equivalent to almost 2 billion gallons of gasoline or the energy needed to power 2 million New Jersey homes for one year.
- Compact Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs use 75% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs. Swapping one incandescent bulb for a CFL bulb reduces carbon dioxide by 500 pounds a year. Replacing 17 incandescent bulbs has the equivalent of taking one car off the road for a year.
- Light-Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs have an operational lifespan of between 35,000 and 50,000 hours, equivalent to approximately five years of operational capacity. This means that theoretically, an LED bulb can be left on for more than five years straight, at which point its luminosity will have degraded to 70% of its initial brightness which is the U.S. Department of Energy standard for calculating the lifespans of LED bulbs. In comparison, CFL bulbs have an operational lifespan of between 8,000 and 10,000 hours (approximately one year), while traditional incandescent bulbs have an operational lifespan between 750 and 2,000 hours which is equivalent to at best a few months.
- Recycled glass production requires 20% less energy and creates 20% less air pollution than glass production from virgin materials.
- Recycled paper production requires between 23% and 74% less energy and creates 74% less air pollution and 35% less water pollution than virgin paper production.
- The State of New Jersey purchases a variety of recycled products for its government operations including recycled copy paper, paper towels, garbage bags, toner cartridges, antifreeze, traffic cones and road construction aggregate.
- In addition to preserving natural resources and saving energy, recycling employs almost 27,000 people in New Jersey and adds almost $6 billion in annual receipts to the state's economy.
- Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours, or the equivalent of a half a gallon of gasoline.
- Recycling a single run of the Sunday New York Times would save 75,000 trees.
- The energy saved from recycling one glass bottle can run a 100-watt light bulb for four hours.

Research Summary
Many drugs have important behavioral actions. One such behavioral action is drug addiction. Drug addiction results from the interactions between an individuals ongoing and past behavior and the pharmacological actions of a drug. The behavioral pharmacology of drug addiction aims at understanding these interactions. Thus, behavioral pharmacology aims to understand how drugs affect behavior, understand how behavior affects drug action, and understand the pharmacological mechanism of these actions. Developing these understandings is fundamental to understanding the behavioral biology of drug addiction and to developing new and more effective treatments of drug addiction.
Ongoing studies address this both from a treatment development perspective and from a basic science perspective. Frequently, however, research is conducted that combines these two perspectives. Two examples of how these perspectives are combined are ongoing studies on the effects of serotonin re-uptake inhibitors on ethanol self-administration in rats and ongoing studies on shaping abstinence in smokers.

Pastor Marvin Winans talks about Whitney Houston and the eulogy he will deliver on Saturday
DETROIT, Mich (wxyz) - Pastor Marvin Winans from Detroit's Perfecting Faith Church will deliver the eulogy for Whitney Houston at her childhood church in New Jersey on Saturday.
He says at times like this you turn to your faith not away from it. He knows that's what Whitney's family is doing right now. He's talked with her mom more than once.
He says he will be reflecting on the fact that even though she achieved incredible fame and stardom during her career, underneath she was still always that little girl from New Jersey.
He says he will find the words of comfort for family and friends but that comfort will come from their belief in Jesus.
Pastor Winans, who is a Grammy winning gospel singer himself, says he remembers the last time Whitney was here in Detroit, he never imagined it would be the last time he would see her.
He says many of his own family members will travel with him to the funeral. He expects it to be an emotional but spiritual celebration of Whitney's life.

Bugs I've Eaten
Now, before you all get your dander in a druff and call the ASPBA, let me explain that I don't normally eat bugs. But some bugs just want to be eaten. And some crazy people will offer huge amounts of money just to see someone eat a bug. And hey! Free Money! Who could pass that up?
3 Lady Bugs (that I know of)
I like to take naps in the back yard in my hammock, and sometimes my mouth hangs open. I know it's lady bugs that I've eaten cause of the polka-dot pieces I've coughed up.
2 Walking Sticks
It should have been only one, but Clark insisted that the first one I ate was a real stick, and he wouldn't pay up. I still say he owes me for two walking sticks. (Clark is the guy that let me drive his Porche 911 Cabriolet. I think it was made in Italy.)
1 Worm
I don't know if this qualifies as a bug, but it was at the bottom of a bottle of tequila, and it wasn't there the next morning.
About a Dozen Cockroaches
Those little buggers just love to crawl into my sandwiches.
Numerous Ants
Picnics, you know.
1 June Bug
Okay, so this June bug fell into a bowl of popcorn I was eating in the back yard, and Clark bet I couldn't eat it like a frog by sticking my tongue out and making it stick to my tongue. Well, June bugs are real slick and oily, like they've been sprayed with that slick oily stuff, and they don't stick to tongues very well. But I had a plan. I waited for the June bug to crawl on top of a kernel of popcorn, and then stuck my tongue on the popcorn (popcorn sticks real good to tongues, you know) and ate both the popcorn and June bug together. Easiest five bucks I ever made.
2 Flies
They just flew into my mouth while I was mowing the lawn. (Not together, or anything. They were about a year apart.)
1 Lobster
This is the one I ate for fun. Okay, so I'm cheating a little, but I bet you can't show me a single entomologer who won't say that a lobster is a member of the bug family.
1 Bumblebee
Don't ask.
Speaking of bugs, here at Earl's TV and Appliance Repair, I can fix just about anything that's bugging you in no time, in just seven working days. Just give me a call!

Vintage fashion connoisseurs, artist and filmmaker Liz Goldwyn and model and musician Karen Elson are using their self-described obsession for good with Vintage Vanguard, a fresh fundraising project with the initial launch benefitting Dress for Success. Through a partnership with Moda Operandi, designers such as Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Calvin Klein's Francisco Costa, Tory Burch and more have selected vintage pieces from the ladies' respective—not to mention vast—vintage collections and customized and reworked each piece, set to go on sale today at 3PM. "All the money is going to Dress for Success, we've been very conscious of building Vintage Vanguard. We wanted to be ethical and conscious," Goldwyn explains. "It's amazing to see the support of our industry but people really do relate to the cause. It's been mind blowing to see how hard working everybody has been. We all know what the industry can be like but this has been a beautiful and refreshing moment to see," Elson adds. Read on for more from the pair about parting with sentimental pieces for the greater good and what's on their vintage shopping lists now.
Harper's BAZAAR: Why is dress for success an important organization for your to be part of?
Liz Goldwyn: I got involved with Dress for Success when I lived in NYC in the late '90s. I thought their program was great and I donated often while I was working with corporations like Shiseido and Sotheby's. Because I was in it, I was very conscious about what was appropriate for the workplace — I would get comments about some of what I wore, like '60s Courrèges. The program was built on the concept of thinking, 'what does a woman need to go out into the world and get a job?'
Karen Elson: I feel Dress for Success is basically about empowering women who were in a disadvantaged situation. The act of wearing a suit when she's walking in the door, it's so powerful—it's about gaining control of their lives and situations. Ultimately that's where fashion trickles down to, it's about giving these women power—it shows another side to the industry, that's it's not just about this charmed existence.
HB: I'm sure we could spend all day, but tell me about your vintage collections and how you chose which items you were willing to part with for this project?
LG: We both have massive clothing addiction problems, especially with vintage. We enjoy the thrill of the hunt, getting a steal. We thought this project was so great and we knew the bar was going to be raised when we were asking designers like Marc Jacobs, Marchesa, Rodarte and they said yes! We edited our own things and sent them to designers, we thought of the designer and their aesthetic. Karen or I would have a dress that was sentimental in some way with the designer.
HB: How did pieces tie in exactly with designers?
KE: For Anna Sui, I wore a dress to dinner with her years ago and she commented on how beautiful this 1930 gown was, so that's what she worked with. Anna got me into vintage. She'd take me around and introduce me to various stores and show me vintage clothing—it was the art of it. She is very involved in the history of textile. Anna got me massively addicted.
HB: With Marc Jacobs I'd bump into him at the flea market often, designers obviously have a love for the history of fashion and that's where Liz and I also have a history. Each of the designers worked within their own aesthetics, Marc's looks like something that could be in his last collection.
LG: When I first I met Rodarte, they told me that they followed me around a vintage fair in LA and they remember my outfit so well, but it was the worst outfit! A '70s Moroccan Yves saint Laurent jacket over yellow '70s OP shorts. They thought that was so cool. In my memory, I'm like, "what was I thinking?" Both of us have close relationships with most of the designers we've asked to participate.
HB: Since it sounds like many of your pieces might eventually end up on the block, what vintage items are you currently looking for and where?
KE: I am scouring eBay. I gave up on eBay for a while but I'm back since the Christmas holiday. I spent far too much money. Liz and I have talked about doing some vintage shopping together. it's about going to the off-beat cities.
LG: Except LA, LA has great vintage. I love etsy, I love online shopping, lately I've been working a lot in NYC and colder places so I'm looking at capes, 1940s black evening capes. It sounds so specific, but you need a lot of options: black velvet, wool embroidered, with a hood, there's so many different ones. And lingerie, I'm always looking for lingerie.
KE: I've got to show you this amazing cape with a hood and chartreuse lining that I just bought.
LG: I'm sweating while you tell me about it.
All items not purchased on Moda Operandi will go on silent auction at an charity cocktail event hosted by Liz and Karen on January 13 at the Jane Ballroom with all proceeds going to Dress for Success (sponsored by Atelier Swarovski). Click here to buy tickets.

Johnny D. Lambert Sentenced in U.S. District Cour
Bill Mercer, United States Attorney for the District of Montana, announced today that during a federal court session in Billings, on December 10, 2009, before Chief U.S. District Judge Richard F. Cebull, JOHNNY D. LAMBERT, age 26, appeared for sentencing. LAMBERT was sentenced to a term of:
- Prison: 30 months
- Special Assessment: $300
- Supervised Release: 3 years
LAMBERT was sentenced in connection with his guilty plea to possession of stolen firearms.
In an Offer of Proof filed by Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Ed Zink, the government stated it would have proved at trial the following:
As of July 7, 2008, LAMBERT was under indictment for felony theft in Yellowstone County. While under charges, he entered Western Pawnbrokers in Billings on multiple occasions and stole firearms.
On July 15, 2008, an employee called the Billings Police Department and reported the theft of two shotguns. The clerk identified LAMBERT from a photo-lineup as the suspect. A detective checked pawn transaction records for the serial numbers from the stolen guns. He discovered that LAMBERT pawned three stolen firearms at another pawn shop, between July 11th and July 15th.
Because there is no parole in the federal system, the "truth in sentencing" guidelines mandate that LAMBERT will likely serve all of the time imposed by the court. In the federal system, LAMBERT does have the opportunity to earn a sentence reduction for "good behavior." However, this reduction will not exceed 15% of the overall sentence.
The investigation was a cooperative effort between the Billings Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

We will visit "Mina da Passagem" the only gold mine in Brazil and take a trolley to the underground galleries that house a natural lake that impresses everyone who sees it. There will be some quick riding in Ouro Preto but we will mainly enjoy the historical landmarks, the scenery and a caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail.
In the morning we will depart ouro Preto and head to Congonhas, a town that has important works from the Golden Age of Brazil. We will see several points of interest such as Aleijadinhos sculptural masterpieces of the twelve prophets and Via Crucis (stations of the cross). We will then head to Jiradentes with a stop for lunch on the way
The tour today starts in Tiraden and we will head to Sao Joao Del Rei. This is a junction of various roads that cut across the interior on the Capitania. We will enjoy a half day cultural excursion and eat some of the best food in Brazil. Then we will hit the road for Caxambu, the city of mineral water!
Caxambu is the city of mineral water at Minas Gerais. It is the biggest mineral water part in the world. This city enchants tourists from all around the world with its rich history, attractions. A cable car takes you to the top of the highest peak in Caxambu giving you a breathtaking vantage point. After a break for lunch we will hit the road towards Paraty with a few great stops in between.
Paraty Brazil has long been considered one of Brazil's historical, hidden gems. Soak up the sun along the golden coast or explore the quaint historical town where there is plenty to see and do. After breakfast we will take a schooner tour that sails to several of the most beautiful beaches and islands all surrounded by dense rainforest. The tour includes snorkel equipment so you can do some underwater exploration on each of the stops!
After breakfast we will hit the road back to Rio de Janeiro with a quick stop to try "pastel" a Brazilian specialty food. Once back in Rio we will have a farewell lunch to reminisce about the amazing adventure we just shared.

Topeka, Kansas
Seattle BREAKING BAD ?
Jesse James Bell
Seahawks BREAKING BAD !!!!!
From the " Big Mouth himself " Sherman own words ( "All we did was play situational football. We knew what route concepts they liked on different downs, so we jumped all the routes. Then we figured out the hand signals for a few of the route audibles in the first half," he said.
"Me, Earl (Thomas), Kam (Chancellor) ... we're not just three All-Pro players. We're three All-Pro minds. Now, if Peyton had thrown in some double moves, if he had gone out of character, we could've been exposed," Sherman continued )
Sounds a little to much knowledge to me than cracking not only Paytons Mannings hand signals but more like the reason why they had the so Called Best defense in the NFL ?
Called it Hi-Tech surveillance which these days are very sneaky to say the least ! It may well be that They or a selected crew had installed some Hi-Tech ( SPY GATE ) system in the visiting team's locker room sorta like if you will " The Mission Imposable Squad " stealing the whole Playbook of all the visiting teams they face during home team encounters which resulted in their roughshod over the 49Ners Crabtree Shout down and their " Looked to easy defeat over the Broncos "!
I say they had some help with their defensive record and it has more to do with Spy gate than studying films of the Broncos games ! Every NFL team studies film of their opponent's so what is Sherman's crew doing that's different ? It's Called Breaking Bad Spy Gate !
It to me looked way to easy! Now to set one thing straight their Q.B. is Awesome and they got a very good Offence squad as so did Denver I just feel Denver got Cheated and some day some one else will spill the beans!
A Warning to all the other teams in the NFL " Ya better go hire a High Tech Nurd Anti Surveillance Guy to weed out all the locker rooms you are visiting to keep it fair !
That Super Bowl did not look fair in no way shape or form, and I have seen everyone starting with my home team that played in the very first Super Bowl The Kansas City Chief !
That's my story and I'm sticking to it !
( Pictures are of a few ways to use Spy Gate objects that looks normal but will record video and voice ! It's not that hard to do , as a matter of fact visually you can't tell ! )
So NFL Teams you been warned !

Hi, so after losing some files recently I started looking into setting up Time Machine on a couple of laptops, so that they back up to an SMB share on a low power Windows 7 Embedded box I have.
After reading various articles on the internet and an old guide on this forum for Snow Leopard (http://www.insanelym...-network-share/) I have been able to get backups working via these steps:
Created sparsebundle called "Backup" for my machine, moved it across to the Windows share the backup will go to.
Changed the setting to allow Time Machine backups to unsupported devices.
Opened and mounted the sparsebundle via SMB in Finder
Run tmutil to set Time Machine to backup to this mounted sparsebundle, eg. /Volumes/Backup
The problem I have is that unless I manually mount the sparsebundle, Time Machine just says it will backup when the backup device is next connected, is there a way of getting Time Machine to automatically mount the sparsebundle whenever it wants to make a backup, and then unmounting it when finished?
As an attempted work around I created an AppleScript app to run the process of mounting the sparsebundle on logon, which appeared to work, but whenever my machine goes to sleep the backup share is disconnected. It isn't a massive problem for me, but my partner doesn't shut their laptop down much (just closes lid), so this would lead to backups not being taken on this machine often.
I also saw that in some guides it says to name the sparsebundle machinename_macaddress, but no explanation as to why this has to be done, is this something that could help me?
Do you have any other advice or things to try to get this automated?
Automated Time Machine backup to Windows Share (SMB)

Well one possible solution would be to use TimeMachineEditor.app to set you backups for certain times. You could then use automator along without your Apple Script to have it run at the same times as well, but a few minutes before.

GLEE (Fox)
The song: "Roots Before Branches," originally by Room for Two
The episode: "Goodbye" (322)
The hook: Graduation arrived Tuesday, and it was up to Finn (Cory Monteith) to make a tough, grown-up decision: To let his fiancée Rachel (Lea Michele) be the star she had always dreamed of becoming. He had to let her go. As she said goodbye to her first love and boarded a train to New York, Rachel sang the L.A. band's poignant pop track with power and panache. But it wasn't just a goodbye to Rachel. Michele's star power put Glee on the map and sustained the show these last three seasons, so the ballad about finding oneself and a place in the world was a layered ode to the show itself.
Watch it! The episode won't be available online until May 30, but you can see the sequence on Glee's official YouTube then check out what Erin Strecker thought of the rest of the McKinley grads' farewell songs.
The song: Cat Stevens, "The Wind"
The episode: The Magician's Code, Part 2 (724)
The hook: It may not have been the highly anticipated reveal of Mother, but it was pretty darn satisfying when Robin (Cobie Smulders) was revealed to be the one meeting Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) at the altar. Stevens' 1971 meditation on the power of fate and the guidance of the heart was a fitting resolution to the will-they-or-won't-they tug-of-war between HIMYM's most willful, wonderful couple. At last we knew: They will!
Watch it! The bride wore white (and the groom wore a duck tie) at 41:27 on HIMYM's official site. Were you as happy as this girl? I know Sandra Gonzalez and Michelle Profis were. Exactly how long has executive producer Craig Thomas been keeping this secret from fans? He spilled to Tanner Stransky the next day.
NEW GIRL (Fox)
The song: AC/DC, "You Shook Me All Night Long"
The episode: "See Ya" (124)
The hook: Nick's (Jake Johnson) looming departure hung heavy on the hearts of the roommates, especially Jess (Zooey Deschanel), leading up to the May 8 finale. Through a serious of truly idiotic events (none of which involved Max Greenfield's Schmidt!), the roommates ended up in the desert having a dance party — thanks to an early '90s mix tape made by Nick — to Deep Blue Something's "Breakfast at Tiffany's," OMC's "How Bizarre," and the Crash Test Dummies' "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm." But they couldn't stay in the desert forever and so headed back home the next day without Nick. Well… not for long. He had second thoughts about leaving and made his grand re-entrance by cranking up the mix tape, cued to the opening strains of the Scottish legends' 1980 classic. The barroom classic lightened the mood and gave the roommates — each in his or her own room — a chance to show off their hottest dance moves in an unintentionally sweet show of solidarity.
Watch it! Jess busts out the "grocery cart," and Nick may or may not have sprained something at 20:26 on New Girl's Hulu. Check out our recap to see how a night in the desert and a coyote run-in led up to this moment.

Fears of a serial killer puts Bremerton on edge
Since May 2011, two women have been killed and a man attacked on streets in Bremerton, a city that had a total of two homicides from 2006 to 2010.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Tip lineBremerton police say people can call the department tip line at 360-473-5481
to offer information
on the attacks.
BREMERTON — Starla Ackerman isn't taking any chances.
Ever since her neighbor, Melody Brannon, was slain earlier this month and police announced it could be the work of a serial killer, Ackerman has carried a knife in her purse, pepper spray on her key chain and a panic alarm.
When the 34-year-old is on foot, she said, her "finger is on the pepper spray at all times."
Ackerman is not alone in her caution.
Brock Jackley, the owner of Dave's Loans and Guns in Bremerton, says the sale of pepper spray and other nonlethal forms of protection has skyrocketed over the past few weeks.
"There's been a lot of husbands buying it for their wives and daughters," Jackley said Friday.
Amanda Boustead, who works the early morning shift at the Fraiche Cup Coffee shop near the ferry terminal, has taken to carpooling and parking closer to work.
"I'm not going to walk alone until this is over," Boustead said.
Since May 2011, two women have been killed and a man attacked on streets in Bremerton, a city that had a total of two homicides from 2006 to 2010. Last week, Bremerton police announced they had enlisted the help of the FBI and were looking into possible connections in the three apparently random and unprovoked attacks.
"We can't conclusively say they are linked," said Lt. Peter Fisher, "but we are investigating the possibility."
Fisher said that police believe all three victims were walking alone when they were attacked from behind. All are believed to have been followed before the attacks, he said.
According to police, Sara Burke, 19, was walking alone in the 800 block of Warren Avenue around 9:30 p.m. May 3, when she was attacked. Neighbors reported hearing what sounded like raised voices and an argument before Burke was found dead of a stab wound to her neck.
The next month, 51-year-old Kenny Cobb was walking on Burwell Street, less than a mile from where Burke was killed, when he was struck in the head and stabbed by an unknown man, police said. The attack happened in the midafternoon and was witnessed, police said, by a man in a gold pickup who stopped to confront the attacker.
Fisher said police have yet to find the driver of the pickup. "We believe he could have vital information," he said.
Brannon, who moved into her home on High Avenue within the past few months, was killed in a yard between 5:30 and 6:30 p.m. Feb. 3. Police said they are intentionally holding back further information about her slaying to protect the investigation.
Police recently have released a sketch of a man they describe as a person of interest in the attacks. The sketch, bearing the message "Seen Him? Call the Police," is posted throughout the city, on utility poles, bus stops, convenience-store counters and in the ferry terminal.
Police describe him as a light-skinned black or mixed-race man in his late teens or early 20s, slender and about 6 feet tall with a distinctive blemish or mark near his mouth and nose that could be a mole or other mark.
Police have announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or people responsible for the deaths of Brannon and Burke.
In response to the attacks, extra police patrols have taken to streets. The department's entire force of 60 or so officers is devoted to at least a part of the investigation, Fisher said.
In addition to seeking leads in the case, Fisher said, the extra officers are reassuring citizens and offering them tips on how to protect themselves.
Police warn people to avoid walking alone, even on well-traveled streets. They're advising against wearing hooded sweatshirts or headphones because they could hinder peripheral vision and awareness. They're also urging residents to carry a flashlight and a loud whistle.
Boustead and her mother, Sindy Collins, who owns the Fraiche Cup, said the possibility of a serial killer in the area has been the topic of much discussion.
Last week, Collins said she watched as a woman stopped and turned around to look in fear at a man who appeared to be following her. The man, who Collins described as a "shipyard worker," saw the woman's fear and held up his hands in mute understanding.
Not everyone, however, is afraid. "Where I come from," said native New Yorker Tom Harvey, "one guy running around doing something crazy happens every week." He said he understands the fear, but after four years in the Marines, "I think I could handle it."
Jesse Gale, 18, said he heard about the attacks but hasn't changed his behavior.
"I just don't think anything's going to happen to me," he said. "It's like, what, a one-in-a-thousand chance or something?"

text: Just thought I'd bring this up again, I did over on BF and here earlier. There is a reason why I think he is the best player overall in this NFL Draft, and he's only a RS Sophomore. Not only the interception, but on the last series where he almost sacked Tebow in the backfield and then ended up coming back off the ground to finish him off on his scramble are evidence enough of the hard work and talent this kid has. Not to mention, the constant double and triple teams he has been drawing all night, and he has broken through them. Get this kid. The Tommie Harris potential and comparisons are apt.

Snoop Lion Gets 'Reincarnated' with Drake, Chris Brown, & Rita Ora
Snoop Lion is setting out on his journey to reincarnation and bringing a few friends along for the ride. The rapper-turned-reggae star has called on Drake, Chris Brown, Rita Ora, and more for his upcoming album Reincarnated.
The reggae and dancehall-influenced album is due April 23 with Diplo and the Major Lazer production team serving as executive producers. It will be available for pre-order on iTunes on April 2.
Reincarnated boasts appearances from Drake, Chris Brown, T.I., Busta Rhymes, Akon, and Rita Ora, as well as dancehall stars Popcaan and Mavado. Tracks include "Lighters Up," "Here Comes the King," "La, La, La," "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks," "Harder Times," and "No Guns Allowed," which is slated to be the next single off Reincarnated. The personal song features Snoop's daughter, Cori B., and has a hopeful and peaceful message.
"We were searching for true reggae music and the message of peace and hope it reflects," said Snoop. "It's so much a part of who I am, and this record is all about paying homage and giving respect to those who created and love reggae music, and hopefully introducing it to a whole new audience. I feel truly honored to make this album and respect to all who blazed the path for me."
Snoop will also release a companion documentary, which opens in select cities on March 15. Watch the trailer below.
