Orson Aguilar is the President of the Greenlining Institute, one of the nation's largest and most successful multi-ethnic, advocacy and leadership development nonprofits.

Under Orson's leadership, Greenlining has become a leading voice in the movement to fight redlining by advocating for greenlining policies, particularly in the areas of the economy, the environment, health, energy, voting, and telecommunications.
Orson's leadership has been featured in major media such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Univision, La Opinion, NPR, Politico, The Huffington Post and many others news outlets. He meets regularly with major Fortune 100 CEOs and with many of our nation's economic leaders.

Vincent Kompany commits his future to Man City
Updated: Tuesday, 23 Apr 2013 07:49 | Comments
Defender Vincent Kompany has vowed to stay at Manchester City, saying: "I have no reason to go."
Following last season's title win, this campaign has been something of a disappointment with below-par showings in the Barclays Premier League and Champions League.
That has been enough to spark speculation over the future of the City captain, with Barcelona mooted as a possible destination.
But the 27-year-old told The Sun: "I have no reason to go elsewhere.
"I am happy here, I have five years left and if you knew the plans for this team for the future... I consider that to be a real objective."

The worst thing you get from being even remotely good at WoW is that sense of accomplishment ( which is entirely unwarranted for ), and from that comes the huge ego. Every "good" PvP-er I've known during the time I played this game had developed some sort of a ego due to succeeding at a relatively simple game ( honestly, looking back at it, this game requires zero active thought put into it while you play - it's just a simple set of mechanical memories and reactions you've attained while mindlessly pushing buttons, session of playing after session of playing ). Most of these players put themselves on a throne and consider themselves untouchable by the general population, and when they lose to some lower team then they blame it on composition, season, class, "gg blizzard", etc - I should know, I was apart of that hive mind once.
And honestly, that's what people on power in the real world do with their friends as well, no idea what'd you expect.
WoW created a complete social system inside of a game, I'm sure few psychology students had their fair share of fun examining it.

I can't comment with certainty on this one provided I'm not following WoW scene for a while now, but let's look at it this way. WoW is a game that sports 10 million regular subscribers, and out of those 10 million subscribers, I'd say that people who regularly earn money by playing WoW barely break the number of 200 ( and when I say regularly, I mean regularly - I'm not talking about arena glad boosts that happen once every 6-7 months, and even when they do happen, they're quite crap money ( I earned approx 1000 euros during TBC and WoTLK by selling Gladiator boosts by advertising on various account trading/selling forums and such, and that's lunchbox money compared to real work in real world you can do instead of sitting infront of your screen, playing someone elses char to a pixel title ) ).
You can't earn money on tournaments because there aren't any that aren't organised by players themselves to help keep themselves entertained; streaming WoW is honestly crap when you have people who stream vintage games like fucking Space Invaders, Commander Keen and Doom - and still get more viewers than WoW players, and only a select few have sponsors. Few top notch guilds, Swifty, Towelie, Reckful and maybe a few others may pretty well be the only people who actually earn a few bucks off the back of a dying dinosaur that is WoW.
Compare that to this for a good measure - when you finally graduate, and if you work extra for that masters degree ( or even a doctorate ), you'll earn shitloads of cash ( provided you picked a decent field and a decent job ) for the remainder of your life, and you won't even have to put much effort in it if you have a easygoing boss.
So really.. Hats off to WoW players who actually earn a few bucks, and even further props to those few who managed to attract some sheiks to sustain them while they play WoW - but if they don't have a plan with their life and education while playing online games and thinking they're the smart ones now, ask them who's the silly goose in 10 years time when they're flipping burgers or doing heavy physical labor.

Citation: Williams, B.D., O'Neil, C.E., Keast, D.R., Cho, S., Nicklas, T.A. 2009. Are breakfast consumption patterns associated with weight status and nutrient adequacy in African-American children? Public Health Nutrition. 12(4):489-496. Interpretive Summary: In the present study, the goal was to assess whether weight status, nutrient intake, and dietary adequacy were associated with breakfast consumption behavior. That study showed that improved weight measures and nutrient adequacy were associated with eating ready-to-eat cereal (RTEC) for breakfast in African-American children. The implications are that consuming a breakfast meal should be encouraged in these children, and that RTEC at breakfast provides important nutrients and may help promote a healthy weight.
Technical Abstract: The objective of the present study was to assess whether weight status, nutrient intake and dietary adequacy were associated with breakfast consumption patterns. A representative sample of the US population was used in a secondary analysis of nutrient intake/diet quality and weight status by breakfast consumption patterns. The 1999–2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES)was used to study African-American (AA) children aged 1–12 years (n 1389). Our results showed 45% of children aged 1–5 years and 38% of those aged 6–12 years consumed ready-to-eat cereal (RTEC) at breakfast; while 7.4% and 16.9% in those age groups skipped breakfast, respectively. The lowest mean BMI (P </= 0.05) and mean waist circumference (P </= 0.05) was found in children 1–12 years of age who consumed RTEC at breakfast compared with other consumption groups. RTEC breakfast consumers had the highest mean intakes of vitamins A, B6 and B12, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folate, Ca, Fe and Zn (P </= 0.05) and the highest Mean Adequacy Ratio (P </= 0.05). RTEC breakfast consumers also had the highest intake of carbohydrates and total sugars, and the lowest intakes of total fat (P </= 0.05). We conclude that consuming RTEC at breakfast was associated with improved weight and nutrient adequacy in AA children. AA children in all breakfast categories still had mean intakes of most nutrients below recommended levels. The implications are that consuming a breakfast meal should be encouraged in these children, and that RTEC at breakfast provides important nutrients and may help promote a healthy weight.

Google SketchUp – The Missing Link to 3D Modeling for 2D Drafters
I would like to take a moment to tell you a story about my experiences with CAD and Architecture, and a trend I'm seeing for the future of architects and others in the field. As an architectural draftsman of many years, a software developer for CAD related products (LaunchPad), and a reprographer for Architects and Engineers for 10 years, I've had a lot of experience in dealing with CAD users over time. I migrated from CAD to AutoCAD early on. Along the way, I witnessed a lot of enthusiasm from individuals and companies who had a desire to migrate away from hand drafted plans to CAD. In the beginning though (the first 5-7 years), there was stiff resistance from within most of the companies I had contact with. The resistance was from firms that were just not ready to make the jump, or that had individuals within them who fought bitterly against the concept of CAD. During those years, I operated as a CAD consultant, where I made it my passion and career to migrate users and firms from hand drawing to CAD. Suddenly, as if overnight, all changed and the world went CAD. At that time, I was hard pressed to find anyone who was still hand drafting plans, and I thought back to all the CAD resistance that I had endured during those early days. What they say about old dogs and new tricks…so true.
A transition in CAD occurred again with the introduction of 3D CAD. 2D CAD operators, or firms who had been heavily invested in 2D AutoCAD, were now being challenged with new concepts such as BIM and generating projects within a 3D environment. I have to admit, I was one of them. I can recall looking at Revit earlier on and found the 3D capabilities to be rather complex. So, I held off from migrating to the idea of drawing plans in 3D, since the learning curve was so incredibly complicated. The concept of generating models that turned into 2D construction documents was intriguing, but the plotted results appeared rather simplistic, or did not represent themselves in a manner that I had come to expect from my 2D CAD. I talked to many other users who also tried to make the transition, and I heard the same two stories from them. One being that, if you draw large commercial, boxy projects, like hospitals, then using Revit was fine. The other was the time factor, being prepared for it to take 3-4 times longer to generate a set of plans. It was great for larger Architectural firms who had the right projects and the budgets behind them. Or, even those projects where the client was willing to pay more for a digital model of the project, if they had uses for the model beyond the construction phase of the project. In both cases, it did not seem to be a scenario that fit my needs. Nor, did it fit the needs of the customers and clients that I had dealt with in my CAD oriented businesses.
Eventually, my clients and customers wanted to go to 3D. Even I did, but abandoned the idea because I was not able to give it the necessary time. I found that what stopped most people from proceeding with 3D was that they did not have a path to executing it. That path consisted of: an economical method, easy to implement, a short learning curve, and results that did not produce a product that seemed sub-par. And, since the established products on the market only met some of those requirements, a great percentage of firms and users shied away from 3D over the last 10 years. But wait, all was not lost. Along came the new SketchUp by Google. At first glance (I was given that glance through a FREE download version of the software that's available to everyone), I was a little skeptical, and so were a lot of the other people I had talked to about the product. It looked kind of like a "toy" product at first, but now I say, don't let it fool you. You have to look at it objectively and not make the assumption that it is a limited product. After using it for a few days, I immediately determined that this product needed to be supported by LaunchPad, and it now is.
What I see is that Google SketchUp finally delivers on the essentials that non-3D architects and drafters have been looking for in the last decade. Again, let's look at some of the pieces needed in executing the path to 3D that users have been waiting for:
Economical - For starters, the Google SketchUp application is FREE. (They do have a $495.00 PRO version and I'm sure it's worth every penny.) But, FREE means there is no reason for you not to at least try it.
Easy to Implement – After going through (25) 3-4 minute videos online that show how to execute all of the basic commands, I was drawing in 3D. Wow, I had never drawn in 3D before! And, in the first day, I was making things happen.
Short Learning Curve - With most 3D products there is a demo video that makes everything look easy and fast, but when it comes to implementing and producing something of any size from it, forget it. Then, the long learning curve comes into play, which means a heavy investment in time. Take, for example, 3dStudio MAX. It's a great product and can do some really amazing things. I have seen some active modeling done from it that would knock your socks off. But, it was done by a user with years of experience and many projects under his belt. Many of us cannot accomplish this. With SketchUp, I was able to do a complete rendered 3D house in less than a week.
Great Results – This is a key element. SketchUp, out of the box, is not going to produce a photorealistic render for you. That would need some help from a 3rd party product that takes the geometry from SketchUp and generates the rendered model. But wait, there is good news. There are some really great products out there that can do this, and some only cost between $99 to $499. I wanted to go all the way with it and downloaded a 30 day trial of the $499 product. The product I used is called IRender nXT for SketchUp. The results were so spectacular from this simple to use program, that it was all it took, I am now hooked on 3D modeling.
What SketchUp brings to the CAD person is a forgiving modeling interface that is actually easy and very fun to use. As a creative Architect, you can be more artistic and free flowing with your design concepts when modeled in SketchUp. All without the accuracy intimidation found with some of the other higher-end 3D/BIM oriented products. There is a time and a place for BIM, and many higher end projects do require it. However, there are many projects that do not require the time consuming use of BIM standards. For example, you may want to put together a conceptual model for a client, with a very short turn around, to bring an idea to light. SketchUp is perfect for this and allows you to create a modeled concept in no time. It also makes 3D modeling a feasible option in terms of the decreased amount of time needed for model development, as well as a shortened learning curve that allows users to make use of the basics of modeling, without all of the BIM requirements. So, if you are an Architect or draftsman using 2D CAD and have been saying to yourself, "I need to be able to better compete in this economy and it's now time to get into 3D modeling, but where do I start?", then let me recommend Google SketchUp as that starting point. Keep in mind, it's not that I dislike Autodesk ADT, Revit or 3dsMAX, they are all great products and LaunchPad supports them. It's just that these products are a little pricey and have an extremely long and involved learning curve.
If you are really hooked on continuing to do your drawings in 2D AutoCAD, but you want to be able to provide 3D modeling of your projects without all the overhead and expense, then it's your lucky day with Google SketchUp. I personally feel it is the most impactful CAD related product of the last 10 years. I make this statement, not because other 3D CAD products aren't doing a better job, but because of SketchUp's simplicity and cost. Not to mention, it's used today by millions of users worldwide. How many seriously proficient ADT, Revit and 3dsMAX users do you know? In my many years in this industry, I may know a handful, at best. The accessibility and ease of use that comes with using SketchUp makes it worth jumping into the 3D modeling realm for 2D drafters at last.

There will be a (3) part video series on using Google SketchUp with LaunchPad. Part 1 is already available and you can access it here. We will also be providing other blog postings with specialty stories relating to Google SketchUp. So please, keep an eye out!

Those interested can read the full gist below:
A desperate attempt by residents of Mpape, a slum satellite settlement within the Abuja metropolis in the Nigerian capital, to stave off the impending demolition of their homes by the Federal Capital Development Authority, FCDA, suffered a severe blow on Friday as an Abuja High Court declined to interfere in the proposed demolition.
The slum dwellers had approached the court to secure an injunctive order retraining the authorities from going ahead with the demolition of their houses but the court refrained from making the desired order sealing the fate of the Mpape residents whose homes, numbering in their thousands, may fall to the bulldozers any moment now.
Delivering the court's ruling on the residents' application, Justice Abubakar Kutigi noted that they did not plead any evidence of their legal rights to the properties they are seeking to protect. He also observed that the layout map filed before the court by the residents did not indicate the positions of the houses in the map and that even street names are not put to enable the court know specifically the relationship of the properties to the layout map.
The court noted that it will not make an order that will be in vain and that injunctions are not granted on the basis of grace or routine.
The court further held that to grant the order being sought by the panic stricken residents will amount to creating confusion and uncertainty and pointed out that the layout is not clear as to the houses in question and their description, adding that justice is not based on form and formality.
Though the court declined to grant the exact order sought by the residents to stop the planned demolition of the Mpape community by FCDA, it however urged all parties in the suit not to take any step that would affect the subject matter of litigation.
"No party should take the laws unto their hands as parties in the matter do not enjoy any liberty to take action that would damage the res (subject matter of the suit)". Further hearing into the matter was subsequently adjourned to October 11, 2012.
The defendants in the matter are listed as the FCDA, the FCT minister, Senator Bala Mohammed and the department of development control.

There aren't many products on the market these days that make me angry, but Google's Android operating system is still one of them. Software startup 3LM has today announced that they will soon be launching "Enterprise-class device management" for Android devices. This will give system administrators the chance to…
- encrypt data on devices
- create application whitelists and blacklists
- Enforce strong password policies
- Remotely wipe devices
- Control enhanced device security
- Remotely install enterprise apps
- Locate devices remotely
- Give remote access to devices and applications
…among other things. It's not that 3LM are doing this that makes me angry, it's the fact that so much of this has to be done by a third-party and not by Google itself.
In a press release the company said…
Addressing enterprise needs for enhanced security and device management, 3LM has collaborated with major handset manufacturers to enable their Android OS-based devices to be enterprise-ready, giving IT enhanced protection and management of the device itself as well as any application installed therein. This enhanced functionality can now be activated by IT administrators through an enterprise server console that is available as part of a complete end-to-end mobile device management platform that 3LM is launching this week.
Now, let's set aside for a moment the remote management features because Google's Android operating system wasn't originally designed or built as, or even intended to be, a corporate product. The problem arises in Google's seemingly complete inability to deal with the ongoing malware and security threat to the platform.
Any individual or business buying into an iPad or an iPhone knows that every app they download has been checked and vetted by Apple and is known to be fully compatible with their device and free from malware. When Windows 8 launches next year the same will be true of its new Metro apps. With Windows Phone at the moment this is also currently true.
Throw into this the fact that with any Windows tablet, be that Windows 7 or Windows 8 when they arrive, contains all of these remote management features by default through group policy controls and I can't but wonder why Enterprises would even consider Android devices at all. IT Pros everywhere would surely be up in arms at even such a suggestion.
Google simple haven't managed security and malware on their platform in any way as effectively as either Apple or Microsoft. Even RIM and HP have better security controls on their app stores than Google.
You may want to flame me for saying this but I've been writing about and teaching computer and network security for years now. It's just too important an issue to be treated flippantly by the operating system authors. Even Microsoft has now grasped this fact with the bundling of anti-virus with Windows 8; something that no anti-virus vendor has so far been up in arms about because it was, frankly, inevitable.
Android users will be able to download the 3LM software from their website next week and I genuinely hope that Android users adopt it. The peace of mind that comes with additional security, and not just in the business space, is worth its weight in gold. There is no word though as yet on how much this software will cost and if there will be discounts for high-volume enterprise clients.
If you are still concerned about security on Android smartphones and tablets however my best advice would be to get a Windows Phone or an iPad (to be fair and balanced). Better still, why not just wait for Windows 8 and get everything you need in the box!?

BELL CITY - Sophomore Dominitrix Johnson led the energized Bell City Cubs (10-3) Friday night as they defeated the Richland Rebels (5-5) in overtime, 50-47.
During the all-Stoddard County match up, Johnson and fellow sophomore Zak McIntyre combined for nine of the Cubs' 11 points in the extra frame.
Richland had several chances throughout the game to put away Bell City and even had two shots with less than eight seconds left as Rebels star Sherome Cole missed two key trey attempts with time winding down.
"We beat the district champs tonight," said Bell City's Coach David Heeb. "Until somebody beats them in February or March they will be the defending champions. Coach Lincoln does possibly the best job of anybody in our district at getting his boys ready to play."
"They came in here with a great game plan and I think that we are very fortunate to beat a very good Richland Rebel squad tonight."
Richland's head coach Jimmy Lincoln had quite a different outlook on the contest: "We lost this basketball game because we didn't rebound and we didn't have people hit free throws. It's pretty sad that they can put a sophomore from the jayvee game in the game and he can hit two free throws late in the ballgame (McIntyre), when we have seniors going to the free throw line and hope to God they make one out of two. It's ridiculous.
"If they don't understand the fundamentals of the game then they are never going to be successful. We don't have leadership right now to be able to do it. Sean Gibson is gone, B.J. Booker is gone and Kevin Wright is gone. All of them are gone."
"They are going to have to step up and until they do, we are not going to win. When we walked in this place we took the crowd out of it, we did everything we had to do to win the ballgame. They don't know how to win yet."
Richland opened up the fourth quarter with Marcus Redmond and Josh McMullen on the free throw line. Both hit their respective stripers to give the Rebels a six point lead at 31-25. This was the biggest lead Richland would hold in the game.
Bell City continued to wear out the Rebels, but the Cubs would get into foul trouble and would lose senior Carl Hadly and junior Kenyon Wright due to both players fouling out. Johnson received his third foul with 1:31 left in the final frame as he put Sherome Cole on the line.
Cole could only get the second of the free throws to go down and he allowed Bell City to stay within two at 36-34.
Johnson would more than redeem his own foul later in the quarter as he, not only saved a ball from going into the back court, but turned around and hit a triple from the top of the key with 3.4 seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 39.
After a timeout by Richland, Sherome Cole received the ball and drove the length of the court. He put up an off-balanced attempt from the free throw line as time expired. Cole's shot would go off the side of the rim. Cole only hit three field goals all night along with two three pointers. Thirteen of his game-high 22 came from the charity stripe.
It was a battle of point guards in the extra quarter as Johnson would post five in the frame including the first bucket and the winning basket of the game.
Johnson's winning basket came, after a cross-over to open the lane, on an open lane lay up.
With 21.1 left in the overtime period Scott McGarity went to the line for Richland with a chance to tie the game, but McGarity could only hit the back end of two free throws.
After another Rebel timeout, McIntyre was quickly fouled and sent to the charity stripe. The sophomore hit both free throws to ice the game for Bell City at 50-47.
One of the major mental challenges that the Cubs overcame in this game was not having their junior leader Eric Henry.
Henry, who did not play in Bell City's win over Cape Central last week for fifth place in the U-High Tournament and who had limited playing time against Scott County Central the night before, dressed out for the game, but did not participate. He is not expected back until the Stoddard County Tournament.
"Eric is a fine player and good young man and it is really going to help us when he gets back, but until then we are going to need other players to step up and to this point they have," said Coach Heeb. "Right now we are in a good groove and if we can get him healthy, and get everyone to playing well together I think we are going to be in good shape."
"Eric Henry is one of the best players in Southeast Missouri," noted Coach Lincoln. "If we can't beat (Bell City) without Eric Henry, I don't know who we can beat."
Free throws were obviously a major part of this match up as well as the Rebels were 18-27 (66.7%) while Bell City shot 9-21 (42.9%) from the line.
"Our free throw shooting was terrible," added Coach Lincoln. "They have sophomores nailing big ones at the end of the game and we have seniors that are lucky to go 1 for 2. That's terrible."
"I think we were trying to beat them in missed free throws tonight," said Coach Heeb. "We told our players yesterday that Richland would probably get to the foul line more times than we would because Sherome (Cole) is such a good penetrator. I think our advantage on the boards picked up some of the slack of our poor free throw shooting."
Bell City collected 28 rebounds, over double the amount the Rebels had as a team on the night.
On Tuesday night the Cubs will travel to Puxico to fight with the Indians while Richland will host Gideon's Bulldogs.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Josh Hamilton is heading to the Los Angeles Angels, lured with a $125 million, five-year contract that steps up the migration of high-profile stars to Southern California.
The Angels persuaded the free-agent outfielder to leave the Texas Rangers with their third big-money offseason signing in as many years. Hamilton heads to Anaheim after first baseman Albert Pujols came West for $240 million last December along with pitcher C.J. Wilson - Hamilton's Texas teammate - for $77.5 million.
Still, the Angels failed to make the playoffs for the third straight year. They had bulked up their pitching staff earlier in the offseason with the additions of pitchers Joe Blanton and Tommy Hanson, along with relievers Sean Burnett and Ryan Madson.
General manager Jerry Dipoto had said Wednesday that he didn't think a major move was "imminent or required." But owner Arte Moreno pulled off another coup by getting Hamilton. The 2010 AL MVP, Pujols and AL Rookie of the Year Mike Trout combined for 103 home runs and 316 RBIs last season.

I'm 16, going to be a junior, pitching 55-58 mph (reaching to hit 60 mph by winter) looking for a 16U A or B or 18U A or B tournament/travel team in Kansas. Ideally, I'm looking for a team that will also go to exposure tournaments, showcases, camp, etc.. I live in the NE part of Kansas, so it matter whether you're on the Kansas City, KS or MO, both are fine! I'm hoping to find a team by fall ball, so if anyone knows of any teams needing a pitcher please let me know! Thanks
