Live Chat with Shark Tank’s Daymond John

 Live Chat with Shark Tanks Daymond John

Finding the right investors for your business is one of the most important decisions you will make as an entrepreneur. in a lackluster economy, it is even more important to hone your pitching skills and stand out from the competition for funding.

To help you capture the attention of potential investors, we invited one of the "sharks" from ABC’s reality TV show "Shark Tank" to take your questions live in an exclusive online chat. the popular show, whose third season premiere air is Jan. 20, spotlights entrepreneurs as they pitch five investors — the "sharks" — to secure funding in exchange for a piece of their company.

Joining us on the day of the season premiere was Daymond John, entrepreneur, investor — and, of course, one of the stars of "Shark Tank." He first became known for his hugely successful FUBU clothing line. He has since launched a multitude of successful business ventures and authored two business books, one focused squarely on branding.

In a one-hour interactive discussion, John answered your most pressing questions in our live chat about pitching investors — and he shared his most memorable experiences from the show. the event happened earlier today. in case you missed it, you can watch it now in its entirety, by clicking on the button at the top.

I cannot believe it’s almost April 5…the day City of Fallen Angels (Mortal Instruments, Book 4) will be released. I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am! There are no words to describe my love for this series, so my crappy drawings will have to suffice…

I’ve never talked about this series on the blog before in depth, and considering the fourth book is almost out (eek!), I’d say it’s about damn time I did. but why just dedicate an entire post to it? How about an entire week?

So we’re doing it! Stay tuned for a week full of posts (here and elsewhere, from me and from some friends) celebrating the works of Cassandra Clare: the music, the romance, the Jace factor and more. Plus, a little something-something from Cassandra herself! I KNOW! Crazy.

Come back tomorrow, link me up to your own posts if you want to join in, and don’t forget to preorder your copy of City of Fallen Angels!

U.K. Classic Rock/Metal Magazines Continue To Do Well

1299222909 91 U.K. Classic Rock/Metal Magazines Continue To Do WellRemember a time before blog sites such as ours, when the only source you had to metal news was through monthly magazines? It’s ok if you don’t, because for a while now, the web has proven to be a valuable, easier, and certainly cheaper source for all of your metal and news needs. Declining sales of newspapers and magazines are proof of this. however, Guardian.co.uk is reporting that classic rock and metal themed magazines have seen steady sales during the second end of 2010. for instance, Future Publishing’s Classic Rock magazine had a circulation of 67,695 in the second half of last year, only down 3.7% compared to the last quarter and 5% year to year, while stablemate Metal Hammer magazine had a circulation of 41,826. Additionally, Bauer’s Kerrang! magazine reported a 4.5% uplift in year-on-year circulation to 42,967, only falling 2.4% from the last period. Compared to NME, who declined by 16.4% in the second half of 2010, that’s considerably good news.

So what could be the explanation behind such steady sales for published magazines during a digital world? Well, one could argue that the U.K. rock magazines are giving the consumer more for the money (or pound in this case). Metal Hammer has teamed up with bands like Iron Maiden and Dimmu Borgir to provide fans with extra goodies along with the magazine, such as mouse pads and beanie hats. Classic Rock, though, has gone even further with artists like Slash and Motörhead by bundling magazines with the artists’ new album a month prior to its release. It’s hard to say whether these special fan pack editions are making fans come out in packs to pick up a copy, but it definitely provides more incentive. and for an industry (both print and music for that matter) that needs all the help in the world, that extra incentive could prove to be a helpful tool in generating more sales.

US ramps up civilian task force in Sudan in preparation for referendum

 US ramps up civilian task force in Sudan in preparation for referendum

In an interview with The Daily Telegraph Ambassador Robert Loftis, the Civilian Response Corps chief, who is directly answerable to the US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, said he was sending teams around the region to “observe, report and monitor”.

Southern Sudan produces 480,000 barrels-a-day of oil and if an agreement on sharing the wealth is not amicably resolved with the north the country could return to the civil war that ended in 2005 after 21 years and the loss of almost two million lives.

Ambassador Loftis said the presence of his team will be able to call in “larger organisations to come in and help” to prevent bloodshed.

“If they vote for independence we will be looking for what sort of assistance we can provide to help them get it off to as good a start as they as they can. Or if the vote is for continued national unity what do you need to do to reconcile the north and the south.”

Asked if the US presence would provide a block against belligerence from the north he said: “It is hoped the presence of international observers will preclude violence or interference in referendum. there is never any guarantee on those but usually it is a help.”

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, warned earlier this month that the world risked “sleepwalking” into a humanitarian disaster as the referendum could lead four million southerners living in the north being forced out.

The Civilian Response Corps has a budget of $100 million and employs a core of 300 people with another 1,000 on standby for operations. It was set up in 2008 with the aim to work alongside the military to stabilise war-torn countries and rebuild nations

Werewolf Fever – Film Reel Reviews

 Werewolf Fever – Film Reel ReviewsTons of fun and some great bloody moments. – Will

A werewolf begins terrorizing the workers at a small burger joint.

Written and Directed by – Brian Singleton

Starring – mark Courneyea, Heather Duthie, Miles Finlayson, Megan Fortier, Rich Glasgow, Ian Lloyd, Camille Marcil, Kevin Norris, mark Singleton

I recently set up another Film Reel screening (which I’ll get into with the next posting here) for Werewolf Fever. of course, I hadn’t seen the film yet! I’ve talked to director Brian Singleton a few times now and his love of movies is matched only by my own so I knew it was a safe bet that he could deliver a great film. I just received my screener of the movie yesterday and instantly sat down to watch it. I have to admit that I was still a little worried about the outcome. Had I just planned a screening for a movie that was bad? I can happily report that Werewolf Fever was a blast to watch and features some great guy-in-a-suit action and plenty of the red stuff and I don’t mean raw meat.

The flick only runs about 60 minutes minus beginning and ending credits and at least half of that time is the werewolf on a rampage, slicing and dicing his way through the employees and anyone else unlucky enough to be around the burger joint. the flick starts off a little slowly and it took me a few minutes to get into each of the characters. by the end of the film I was cheering for some and hoping for a terrible death for others. Congrats to Brian for creating people who I actually hoped would survive the werewolf encounter. I meant to ask Brian if the film was shot in sequence or not because it seems like the more the movie goes along, the more comfortable everyone got in their roles.

 Werewolf Fever – Film Reel Reviews

There'll be a lot more to worry about than nasty customers soon!

Being an indie flick, some of the performances are a little stiff to which Brian responded ‘sure, everyone goes after the acting in the indie flick!’. Ya got me there man! I wasn’t expecting breakout performances and everyone does a good job but Rich Glasgow and mark Singleton turn out my favorite parts of the film. the story is great and the dialogue is well done and the movie looks great. about 20 minutes into the movie the werewolf shows up. the delivery guy for the burger joint is attacked on his last delivery of the night and now he’s a werewolf. he returns to the burger joint and all hell breaks loose! Once the halfway mark hits for the film it’s pretty much all werewolf.

 Werewolf Fever – Film Reel Reviews

It's not like any other werewolf I've seen and I certainly wouldn't mess with it!

Easily the best part of the film is the werewolf. Forget the fancy CG crap they churn out now, which most of the time really looks awful. this werewolf is mark Singleton in a suit, and a crazy looking suit at that. there is nothing that I love more than a rubber suited monster. it doesn’t matter if it looks good or bad, I love it. it brings back fond memories of childhood, watching all those classic flicks on TV at my grandparents house on a Sunday afternoon. Nothing can beat a monster like that and the werewolf here is insane looking. He’s also hungry for blood! At first the attacks usually happen off-screen but as the movie gets closer to the end we get to watch the werewolf chowing down on unlucky victims. I was really enjoying the end result of some of those attacks!

This all leads up to an ending that I didn’t even think about but had me grinning from ear to ear. it was a great way to finish off the flick. Any fear I may have had about screening Werewolf Fever up here in Toronto is all gone now. It’s a really fun movie and I can’t wait to check it out in a crowd. of course, this isn’t only just a fun movie, it’s a fun Canadian movie with Brian coming out of Ottawa. to think that a great Canadian flick like this is only now getting a Toronto premiere makes me sad. I guess maybe there’s just too many Canadian movies getting made, isn’t that right Piers Handling. (please note grumpy sarcasm!) I can’t wait to bring this one to the Toronto Underground Cinema and I’m glad I could be a part of the whole thing. I’m also looking forward to anything a great monster freak like Brian Singleton can bring to the table after this one.

20 largest consumer tech companies

1280232915 71 20 largest consumer tech companies

Click for a PDF file of the Largest Consumer Tech Companies new England’s largest consumer tech companies are a diverse group, each dipping into a different corner of the industry. from practical GPS devices to entertaining toys, the companies dominating the field are a heterogeneous mix of software, hardware, services, or retail a combination of all of them.  the biggest companies are, as expected, the household names. These are the companies with the advertising budgets sized to let consumers recognize a product by its provider. farther down the list, though, are the companies whose consumers may be using their products and services without realizing the source. For example, the people delving into the fantasy game world of Dungeons and Dragons Online may not know Turbine Inc., but they certainly can recognize the game’s characters and interface. as more aspects of the consumer’s life have become digital, each aspect lends itself to a new product sector. while a handful of large companies top the list of consumer tech companies, in new England the bulk of the companies making consumer-targeted products tend to follow a smaller model. there is a cloud of companies functioning with just a handful of people. Working in small shops or as virtual companies, many of these startups are running lean operations as they outsource various tasks. So, even as they grow, they’re not necessarily growing their workforce numbers in new England. they are the companies jumping on the mobile bandwagon with application development. they are the entrepreneurs taking consumer living to the Internet with SaaS tools for tasks ranging from managing social presence to tracking finances to organizing digital media. like phoenixes rising from the ashes, startups keeping popping up from former endeavors, launching yet another idea to help capture the wallets of consumers.
