African-American Chicago Entrepreneurs inspire potential new business owner
2009-09-20 03:33:00 On Aug. 25, I attended an annual Chicago Women's Entrepreneur networking event, courtesy of Sr. Account Executive Robert F. Wimberly II, and met so many women business owners and aspiring women business owners, including fashion experts, internship recruiters, lawyers, health experts and bank owners. When I was in college, I helped write and edit a business plan for a Chicago music company called MidWest Incorporated, and the more I talked to the owner, Phillip Cavil Sr., the more intrigued I became at owning my own business someday. And my favorite restaurant in all of Chicago is Quench!, owned by Quentin Love. I'm fascinated with those who are brave enough to branch out and start their own company--from hiring employees to...

Aaaaaaand We Have An Owner
2009-01-23 01:42:00 TribCo: After nearly two years of intrigue, the billionaire Ricketts family has emerged as the winning bidder to purchase the Chicago Cubs from Tribune Co. for about $900 million, a source close to the winning bid said Thursday evening. The family will now complete negotiations with Tribune Co. The family edged out Chicago real-estate investor Hersch Klaff and New York private-equity investor Marc Utay, a Chicago native, for the chance to follow Tribune Co., the Chicago-based media conglomerate, as owners of the storied yet hard-luck franchise. The Ricketts family effort, led by Tom Ricketts, who lives in the Chicago area, still has a number of hurdles to cross before taking ownership of the Cubs, including receiving approval from 23 of the league's 30 owners. Cubs officials have said they hope to have sale completed by the start of the new season in April. Personally, I have no idea what this means. Feel free to tell us what YOU think it means. And here's the answer to our quest...

EA And Ubisoft Rumored To Be Eyeing Eidos Owner SCi Entertainment
2008-12-02 09:53:00 Lara and Agent 47 could be reporting to a new boss before too long. "We've got you in our sights Lara" A UK Daily Mail online report puts Eidos parent company SCi Entertainment actively out on the sale block again. Though no specifics are given, it says that the company has received preliminary inquiries from Electronic Arts and Ubisoft. Both companies have been the subject of rumors surrounding the potential sale of SCi since the ouster of its former CEO and founder Jane Cavanagh in January of this year. Her replacement, Phil Rogers, came over from Electronic Arts where he had been Vice-President of Corporate Development in February of 2007.But EA isn't the only company with a potential inside track. Time Warner currently sits as the largest of the major shareholders in SCi with a 16.13 percent chunk of the company and has been mentioned in previous rumors. Adding support to both Warner's potential interest and the rumored sale in general, last week SCi issued a statement that ...

There is a need for GMAIL owner search
2008-06-06 22:38:00 Searching everywhereLately I have been getting requests for blog posts from folks using a gmail account. You cannot find out who owns a Gmail account, there are no Gmail directories to search like Yahoo or the old AOL. There are a number of different email search providers on the internet, but their information usually only provides the person's address and phone number, not email. As a general rule, any website that asks for money to find email addresses is probably a scam, or will provide you with outdated email addresses at best. Gmail is Google's free mail service, I like the mass storage, up to 9GB now. Gmail takes the features of Google's search engine and builds the SE into the email, so you can do searches on the web and through your emails. Gmail has some very good security. Is there a way to find out who owns a gmail account? NO NO. That is not the answer I want to here. Today is the age of stolen computers with your personal information on it and mass avenu...

Great young mare looking for her forever owner!
2008-05-27 04:45:00 Belle is a lovely little mare. She is built very well, has great feet and wonderful personality. She is a protector of those she loves.She stepped between myself and a very angry horse and would not move until the other horse left me alone. She has that puppy dog personality, she loves to be involved in whatever your are doing. I think she would pick up a hammer and help if she could! She is green-broke. We ride her in a loose-ring snaffle, or a halter and lead clipped to it. She is easy-going and laid back. She goes thru water, has been ridden along highways with big rigs running up and down it. Nothing phases her. She will make someone a WONDERFUL partner do great at any discipline. I have found that I like geldings better than mares, not her fault just my preference. Pardon the picture with her winter fuzzies. I will be updating that picture ASAP!!!

Office owner Maguire a good longterm bet?
2008-05-21 09:01:00 Michael Knott, a senior analyst at Green Street Advisors in Newport Beach, thinks Nelson Rising, the new boss at troubled office-tower owner Maguire Properties Inc., will turn this O.C.-heavy real estate investment trust around — but it could take awhile. Rising took over the reins of the company Saturday after founder Robert F. Maguire III stepped down following his failed attempt to buy 75% of the firm. The L.A.-company owns 17 properties in Orange County, a market that’s now seeing double-digit vacancies due to the mortgage meltdown and a slowing economy. “Nelson Rising, the new CEO, is a positive,” said Knott, who specializes in office REITs. Knott noted that Rising knows something about turnarounds. In the ’90s, Rising brought Catellus Development Corp., the development spinoff of Southern Pacific Railroad, back from a slumping real estate market. Knott said Rising also has a major incentive to turn Maguire around. “If he gets the stock pri...
