THE HEARTY BOYS: DAN & STEVE
The first season winners of Food Network's "The Next Food Network Star," The Hearty Boys, Dan Smith and Steve McDonagh, are nationally recognized television hosts, trend-setting caterers, dynamic restaurateurs, and esteemed cookbook authors. Besides their Food Network "Party Line with the Hearty Boys," Dan and Steve went on to open "HB: a Hearty Boys Spot," one of Chicago's leading restaurants, as well as author a well-received cookbook titled "Talk With Your Mouth Full: The Hearty Boys Cookbook," released in October, 2007, now in its second printing.
The Hearty Boys believe, first and foremost, that entertaining should be fun, for both guests and host. Dan and Steve's philosophy centers around taking the anxiety out of cooking for company by sharing their completely accessible - but still impressive - recipes, stories of successes and failures, and of course the little black book of tricks culled from working in the trenches.
Dan and Steve have recently launched their new Chicago restaurant,"Hearty," to rave reviews.
Plus, Chef Anahita Naderi, Executive Food Editor of OC Life magazine.
Originally from Iran's Caspian region, Chef Naderi graduated with top honors from Orange County’s Art Institute. She has become a well known local culinary impresario, doing private events and cooking demonstrations. Chef Anahita also regularly teams up with notable local chefs like Bruno Serrato of the Anaheim White House and notorious pastry chef Rachel Klemek, of Blackmarket Bakery.FOOD | WINE | HEARTY BOYS | CHEF | FOOD NETWORK |

Business Writing with UpWrite Press |
| Description : |
The way you construct sentences makes a big difference in your communication. Here are the four types of sentences:
- The Simple Sentence is made up of one independent clause. It has only one subject and one predicate, although either may be single or compound. For example, you can write Tom wrote the proposal, or you can write Tom and Elena wrote and delivered the proposal. Both sentences are simple because, even with compound elements, each is made up of one independent clause.
- The Compound Sentence is a little more complicated. Itâs made up of two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction such as and, or, so, or but. An example is We hoped to be finished by now, but the client demanded changes. You can see that without the conjunction, either clause could be a simple sentence on its own.
- The Complex Sentence is composed of one main independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. For example, consider the sentence If we could run the specs one more time, we might be able to spot the problem. The first clause, if we could run the specs one more time, cannot stand on its own because of the little word âif.â That subordinating conjunction makes the clause dependent upon the main clause, we might be able to spot the problem. Complex sentences often begin with relative pronouns or subordinating conjunctions.
- The Compound-Complex Sentence includes two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause, as in this example: Whenever I am in Chicago, I try to get to the Art Institute, but I didnât have time during my last trip. Get the picture? Whenever I am in Chicago is a dependent clause, making this example sentence complex; and the other two clauses are independent, also making the sentence compound.
Try varying the types of sentences in your writing by rearranging and combining clauses. Youâll probably find that writing is a lot more fun, and the result will be a fresher, more interesting style.
You can learn more about sentences on pages 258-260 in in Write for Business, just one of the many helpful business writing materials from UpWrite Press.

Bad at Sports Podcast: Contemporary Art Talk |
| Description : |
This week Duncan sneaks into The School of the Art Institute of
Chicago to interview Mary Jane Jacob, Professor and Executive Director of Exhibitions. Mary Jane Jacob's name is synonymous with the phrase "art as social practice" or the field of art that is now more widely known as "Relational Aesthetics." Jacob was at the center of the nineties debate about what was and could be considered an art object/experience and was putting on festivals, exhibitions, and public art programming that expanded our art consciousness long before Bourriaud "sexy-ed" up the field with his now seminal book.
Aside from being a former Chief Curator at the MCA Chicago and LA MoCA, Jacob was also the person behind "Culture in Action," Chicago's progressive, but widely debated 90's public arts program. She is the author/co-author of several books including, "Learning Mind: Experience into Art," "Buddha Mind in Contemporary Art," "Culture in Action: A Public Art Program of Sculpture Chicago," "Conversations at The Castle: Changing Audiences and Contemporary Art," and "On the Being of Being an Artist." She is the recipient of many grants, awards, fellowships and residencies, amongst the most notable are the Peter Norton Family Foundation, the National Endowment for the Humanities and National Endowment for the Arts, Rockefeller Foundation, Bellagio Study Center Residency, and the Getty Residency Program.
