June 3, 2009
CCAD has opened registration for summer classes…along with the usual figure drawing and painting fare, this one really caught my eye:

On Taking Chances

May 28, 2009
Last weekend I gave the commencement speech at School of Advertising Art in Dayton. With fifty-five graduates, family and friends, instructors and staff from the school, the audience was a total of about 500 people.

Portfolio has a new printer. Okay, actually last December we got a new printer, a color laser, sweet! Then it broke. But we’d only had it a couple of months, so Xerox sent us a new one. In one day! And apparently the new models are much more environmentally friendly.

According to their paperwork the Xerox Phaser 6128MFP “Generates up to 90 percent less waste than comparable color laser printers under normal operating conditions” and has “Smaller toner cartridges with minimal packaging…” You know those nasty

Job Hunting Frustrations?

May 20, 2009
It seems to me that a lot of job seekers’ frustrations come from not knowing how the game is played. This article/Q&A is a good example. Unfortunately this job seeker has expectations that are not in-line with the way most companies and recruiting processes work, and is getting extremely frustrated when their expectations are not met.

It’s important to know what a company’s procedure is, as much as you can tell or find out, and to understand generally how the process works today perhaps as compared
