Why Wait Until Sunday?

By Megan Kilgallen

It's that time of year again! Have you placed your bets? Not on the winning team, but on who will have the best Super Bowl commercials?

Last year the big "winners" around here were Volkswagen, Chrysler, Doritos and Bridgestone, but we are very anxious to see who comes up with the best creative for Super Bowl XLVI.

This year, we don't have to wait to start our judging!

Saving Suki

By Rick Chiorando

Saving Suki"Saving Suki" has a nice alliteration to it, which was done by design, see the plan is to write and illustrate a children's book about how cool it is to save a rescue... To give an animal a second chance when the only other option they may have is a date with a needle.

My rescue is Suki. Found running loose in Manhattan, kicking over garbage cans for food and drinking rain water, Suki was picked up and brought to a shelter where she was pushed into a crate at the back of the facility. She was just an hour from being euthanized when I got an email from a friend asking for someone to please save Suki and foster her until they could find her a forever home.

Unleashed

By A&W Unplugged Team

We love dogs (and all pets for that matter). We don’t try to hide it at all. Anyone visiting the office on a regular basis has met Suki, Jesse, Amber or the many other canines we bring in. We wanted to take a few minutes to share with you the stories of how some of us came to adopt some of our pets - many of which came from shelters and rescue organizations right here on Long Island.

CFO to the Rescue: Mad Men

By Sandra Drucker

AMC's Mad Men

I love AMC's Mad Men: If you have visited my profile, you know I am passionate about the series. The show is compelling on so many levels. Finally, there is a show that highlights the advertising industry. Imagine my excitement when I realized that the role of the CFO was about to become prominent.
