| |
| "What's the dress tonight?" This question has subsided over the years as my friends become used to each other, but new people to our group still ask. It's always amazed me how prominent business people always worry about this . . . but then, that's what makes them prominent. |

A Star On Screen and Off: The Early Years of Paul Newman
| |
| Over his fifty plus year career, Paul Newman has won Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, and Cannes Awards for his work both as an actor and film director. But, don’t think that’s enough to tire this legend out. At 82 years old, Newman now spends his time devoted to Newman’s Own, the company he first founded as a practical joke, which has today becoming a shining example of corporate philanthropy. It has given away over $200 million since its inception, making Newman a star both on screen and off. |

Dinner at Ron's
| |
| I recently had the pleasure of participating in a dinner at Ron and Miri Gutman's home in San Francisco. Ron is the Founder & CEO of Wellsphere, and he and Miri were the perfect hosts. I had a BLAST cutting wood before the dinner. I went for a great run and came back to find a stack of wood, which Ron caught me chopping. It felt like when I was a kid and dad and I used to do it back home. |

And the Winner is...
| |
| Probably not the consumer but is the balance tilting?
I had the pleasure this month of attending the PLC Awards dinner at the Grosvenor House Hotel. The categories of award included Best Performing Share, Best Performing Smaller Company Fund, and Company of the Year. Funnily enough there was no award for most cost effective fundraising/acquisition of the year; that's possibly not something that the City would wish to celebrate. |

| You Have the Right to...Ask for Help!
In my seminars I often tease that some women believe they were born with a tattoo that says, "I can do it all"...or "I must do it all." I then ask for someone to show me that tattoo. Although we all laugh, it's not a laughing matter. The sad fact is that 67 percent of working mothers in America come home and make dinner all by themselves. Worse yet, 72 percent of them clean up after dinner, again all by themselves.
Let's look at the younger generation. My children have known since they were small that there's no such thing as the "Kitchen Fairy." Food doesn't magically

Monthly Dinner With My Brother
| |
| Last night I had dinner with my brother Daniel, one of the partners at Slice of Lime, a Boulder-based web design and development firm. He and I were at TechStars at the end of the day where I gave a talk on “How To Be A CEO.” Afterwards, we had a nice dinner together at The Cheesecake Factory (his choice – I don’t think I’d been there in a decade – and it was surprisingly good), a great talk, and dynamite brother hang out time. |
