TechWeek Founders Part Ways
Edward Domain December 9, 2011
The founders of Midwestern conference company TechWeek have parted ways.
Jon Pasky and Geoff Domoracki were the two remaining founders of the company that launched as midVentures in 2010 and later rebranded as TechWeek. Their first major conference under the TechWeek label was put on this year in Chicago and the external communications from the company have indicated 2012′s conference is on schedule.
TechWeek was notable for being able to successfully host a tech conference in Chicago where past attempts by other companies had failed.
The news is especially interesting given that the company recently raised an undisclosed amount of funding this year rumored to be in the $400K range- there is no news at this time of the details of Domoracki’s departure.
The details of the split between Pasky and Domoracki are unknown; other high level employees have also left TechWeek recently; Business Development manager Danny Bloomfield is now listed on LinkedIn as working for User Voice.

Excerpt from your “Report”:
Several things that didn’t happen just this year, in
part due to information provided in this report:
(and here Carolyn Nowinski told me at the Entrepreneurial Bash at UIC on November 17th that
Churchwell never took the $5MM he was slated to get from the Kansas Bioscience
Authority and on that narrow point, I did play a role by alerting Kansas state
senator and chairman of the Kansas state senate commerce committee Susan Wagle
to the fact that TLC did not have a new fund and was therefore not eligible for
the money which was being doled out on a matching basis).. implies that we were misleading KBA regarding our status. In fact, both KBA and EnnisKnupp knew exactly where we were at all times and when we decided not to pursue fund raising, we asked KBA to withdraw the commitment. So despite your hubris, no one was misled; the KBA process was respected and we were eligible until we opted out. I’m surprised that Caralynn talked to you.

_______________________________
Ron May here. I did not see the second email that Tom Churchwell sent last week. I called him Sunday afternoon and Sunday evening he resent the 2nd email that he had sent to go along with the first one which I printed on Friday, December 9th.
I do owe Churchwell an apology. My operating assumption all year had been since I started helping with the Thornton investigation in March 2011 that Thornton had been trying to pull a fast one with the KBA as it related to funding Churchwell’s fund.
Based on what Tom Churchwell is writing here, I was wrong because whatever games Thornton may or may not have been playing, Tom Churchwell was evidently not participating in them.
TLC, I apologize to you, Susan Wagle, the commerce committee of the Kansas State Senate, the KBA, Cydney Boler and to EnnisKnupp for giving misleading information and for making faulty assumptions.
Tom, you write in the email below, “I’m surprised that Caralynn talked to you.”
First of all, Caralynn, I’m sorry that I misspelled your name as Carolyn. Second, I’m glad we did talk even if for just thirty seconds.
TLC, this is what I have always had in mind as the theory bend TMR, which is closer and closer iterations of the truth. Jeff Gilbert calls it critical damping, an engineering term en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping which has applications to missile guidance systems.
I’ve always thought we can’t get the best approximation of the truth in the end unless we get it somewhat wrong in the beginning. Hence, the need for iteration in seeking the truth. One would hope that each time we try, we come closer and closer to it.
BTW, check out www.vimedicus.com which has offices in Chuchwell’s office and Tom is the CEO.

Ron,
I’ll take a calculated risk and get back on your radar, since I spent 20 years in Chicago high tech before moving my family from Chicago to Minneapolis-St. Paul in 2006.
Still running www.zaptel.com the international phone card company, had a surprise win with that when I was able to become perhaps the largest supplier of phone cards to the contractors in Iraq for the war, but that is winding down and so is the business from that. We made the INC 5000 list and had revenue close to $5 million last year. No outside investors, I am 100% shareholder, with 8 amazing employees, most still in Chicago.
Current project is a social network connecting families around gift giving occasions. I just got my first IOS (iPhone) app in the Apple app store called mygiftster. The website is www.giftster.com and it syncs in real time with the app. Basically 14 billion dollars of economic value is lost each holiday – the difference between what Americans pay for “thoughtful” gifts and what the recipients actually value them at (oh great, I’ll smile but this is another gift for my closet). Giftster is a free wish list, gift registry, event calendar and news feed service for families that attempts to help solve this problem. It matches gift buying with what people really want or need. I’m taking a “lean startup” approach to this and have been moving it forward the past 3 years, listening to customers, investing my own funds in development, and this holiday it has grown to about 500 people a day signing in and several thousand accounts. Once a family “adopts” this service most never stop using it, so the viral nature is strong. Generates revenue from Google Adsense ads and Amazon affiliate commissions (Minnesota isn’t yet on the Amazon black list for affiliates). To be a home run I need a million users or more – could happen.
My third business is www.supportstore.com , owned by ZapTel. Cause related merchandise, in stock, same day ship, and we donate a percentage to the related charities. We have 669,000 items in stock and most are quite an “emotional” purchase as someone finds out that a family member is facing a serious health challenge they purchase these items to show support.
I mention all this in case there are any Chicago entrepreneurs that might spot some synergy with what I am doing and want to talk. I also volunteer at the University of Minnesota Carlson School of Management, where I spend some time with mostly undergraduate aspiring entrepreneurs who want to get some insights from the “real world”.
In 1989 Bob Geras was willing to mentor me and fund my first business, and now I am able to do this for others. I’ve invested six figures in a Chicago data center run by some great guys in including Gary Chaffin, in Lombard, called Continuum Data Centers, and a startup in Minneapolis St. Paul that has patents on an idea to dispense washer fluid at the pump at gas stations.

Ron,
Nice to see you at the event the other night, I can see why you spend your time among this crowd. An interesting bunch to be sure.
I’m told I was name-checked on your site, and my marketing skills gently critiqued. I’m sure you’re right, we all have room for improvement. I’d be pleased to have a chat with you about the project as soon as I have something useful to say, or sooner if it is off-the-record. I’m very excited about it, and some others are as well, but a few things have to fall into place before we spread the word. But I think we’re very close.
I appreciate your understanding, and am happy to fill you in with whatever information I can at the moment. I wouldn’t mind “interviewing” you as well about some of the ins and outs in this area as it is all new to me.
All the best,
Todd

…it’s only a start.
The Blagojevich sentence is the stiffest ever imposed on an Illinois politician. The effect of Blagojevich’s corruption on his family and the people of Illinois is tragic. But we have to keep our eye on the ball. Yesterday’s sentencing is only the first step in repairing the damage he and other corrupt politicians have inflicted on the fabric of democracy in our state. Crimes were committed. Justice has been served. Now it’s back to the fight for the better government we deserve.
The fight demands that we keep an eye on all of the other 7,000-plus units of government in Illinois — on the public officials who run their fiefdoms far away from the headlines and far under the radar.
Who’s watching them? The BGA. We’re watching, we’re shining a light on government, holding public officials accountable and we are getting results.

Tom Bennett chimes in on the sentence
December 11, 2011 (3:05p CT)
In advance of providing you with highlights of the previously-referenced Chicago Machine Set-up, I’d like to share with you a recent citizen journalism experience that took place during this past summer’s USA vs. Rod Blagojevich retrial.
During a brief courtroom recess outside Judge Zagel’s courtroom, I grabbed a seat in the waiting area near the 25th floor north side elevator bank and spent some time reviewing my notes from earlier courtroom sessions. During this break in the action, a proxy, stooge and vocal supporter of Team Blagojevich (“Blagojevich proxy/stooge”) approached me in the waiting area and proceeded to ask me some very direct questions related to Nuclear Chicago media coverage of the USA v. Blagojevich retrial.
In fact, same Blagojevich proxy/stooge proceeded to lift my Nuclear Chicago reporter notebook right out of my hands and thumb-thru my notebook while complimenting me on both the detail and penmanship in my Nuclear Chicago reporter notebook.
The Blagojevich proxy/stooge that lifted my reporter notebook was clearly trying to demonstrate some level of subtle (or not so subtle) intimidation. At that point, I did what a Nuclear Chicago citizen journalist is trained to do, I responded to the Blagojevich proxy/stooge’s attempts at intimidation with a very direct question related to Rezko’s surgical removal from the Blagojevich retrial as the Blago proxy/stooge also purported to be an attorney.
I specifically asked the Blagojevich proxy/stooge for his opinion – as he represented to also be an attorney – as to why the U.S. Attorney was clearly attempting to surgically-remove Antoin “Tony” Rezko from the USA v. Blagojevich retrial. The Blagojevich proxy/stooge proceeded to respond to my direct question related to Rezko’s surgical removal with an incredibly lame metaphor and analogy to briefly explain his opinion as to why the Federal Government was surgically-removing Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko from the USA v. Blagojevich retrial.
Upon the Blago proxy/stooge providing his lame response to my question, I did not press with further questions (or share additional observations) with same proxy/stooge as it was time to re-enter Judge Zagel’s 25th floor courtroom.
The following incident that I’m preparing to report upon took place as we took our seats while re-entering Judge Zagel’s courtroom as Judge Zagel had not yet entered the court-room:
1). The Blagojevich proxy/stooge made a point of taking a seat directly next to me (to my left) in Judge Zagel’s Courtroom.
2). Just before the Blagojevich proxy/stooge took his seat, Patti Blagojevich filed-into the courtroom. At this time, Patti Blagojevich shared an incredibly flirtatious, and intimate moment with the Blagojevich proxy/stooge in open court.
3). Upon the Blagojevich proxy/stooge taking a seat directly next to me (to my left), the same proxy/stooge proceeded to again lift my notebook as we were now inside Judge Zagel’s courtroom. Instead of thumbing thru my notebook, the proxy/stooge proceeded to briefly ‘show-off’ my notebook to Patti Blagojevich while Patti Blagojevich was now standing a few feet away from where I was sitting in the Courtroom. During the same time, the Blagojevich proxy/stooge was ‘showing-off’ my notebook to Patti Blagojevich, the same proxy/stooge incorrectly informed Patti Blagojevich that I was a pro-Blagojevich citizen journalist. The proxy/stooge’s observation, while clearly incorrect, did put a brief smile on Patti Blagojevich’s face.
Nonetheless, I politely informed both Patti Blagojevich and the Blagojevich proxy/stooge that my diligent courtroom observations, note-taking and reporting should not be interpreted as having either a pro-defense or pro-prosecution bias.
In fact, I expressly informed Patti Blagojevich and the Blagojevich proxy/stooge that my diligent courtroom observations, note-taking and reporting is simply an exercise in ‘calling balls-and-strikes’ and should therefore be interpreted as nothing more, nothing less.
Upon briefly sharing my ‘calling balls-and-strikes’ commentary with both Patti Blagojevich and the Blagojevich proxy/stooge, both Patti Blagojevich and the Blagojevich proxy/stooge immediately began to participate in a somewhat humorous, open-courtroom conversation related to an ‘unlicensed dog’.
Their same unlicensed-dog open-court conversation lasted for approximately 30-seconds and concluded-upon Judge Zagel entering the courtroom. It was a classic and unmistakable Chicago Machine goo-goo moment….the unlicensed-dog goo-goo moment.
Over the next few days, I will be sharing additional classic and unmistakable Chicago Machine goo-goo moments (and hubris) upon reviewing my meticulous notes from the past several years.
Welcome to Chicago.

ISC
Dear Ron,
Illinois Science Council is wrapping up a sassy, scintillating, science-filled year. We’re glad you could be a part of it — enjoying audacious authors and captivating chemistry experiments.
Unlike some others, ISC values you for your mind, although we will certainly take your money and we want your body at our programs. So please take our survey below and consider a tax-deductible contribution.
Put Your Money Where Your Mind Is! – Support a 5-year-old!
Based on its “birth date” as a 501c3 nonprofit organization, Illinois Science Council is 5 years old. As any newcomer, it started slow – first learning to crawl, then walk and talk. Now, like any 5-year-old, it has its own personality and is a lot of fun to be around. But it still requires constant adult supervision.
ISC is crazy curious about all things science. In 2011, ISC:
Got a little ambitious learning about the cosmology of multiverses and quantum physics with science authors;
Was convinced it could handle adult things as it explored the chemistry of beer and whiskey; and,
Showed its playful fun side too – doing experiments with the chemistry of chocolate and honey.
To continue to grow and thrive in coming years, ISC needs you to put your money where your mind is. Please make a tax-deductible donation to ISC today.
Continuing the analogy, that could mean $10 (for kindergarten supplies) or $100 (toward its college fund). Any amount is greatly appreciated and we promise to use it wisely!
We already know that in 2012 ISC will be getting into brains (neuroscience, not zombie food) and the science and technology of electric vehicle cars for starters. If you have other ideas – please send them along!
Science lovers — give us your thoughts!
We need your help shaping next year’s events. So after you’ve made a donation (and even if you didn’t), put your mind where your money is!
Do you have ideas how to make Illinois Science Council better? Programs you want to see? We want to hear ‘em! Please take 5 minutes to answer a few questions. This brief survey will help us learn what programs will be of most interest to you in the upcoming year.
Short survey – click here
SPECIAL BONUS: Answer the survey by December 20 and your name will be entered in a drawing to win one of 2 sets of ISC coffee beakers! Two winners will be announced via Facebook, so please
Chemistry of… Culminates with Caffeine (at least for 2011)
We’ve had great fun with our Chemistry of… series honoring 2011 as International Year of Chemistry. (Check out the videos below.)
Everyone who attended a program got to conduct actual chemistry experiments themselves, smell and taste things, make friends, have fun and get a little smarter for the time well spent. (Better than an evening of reality TV!)
We got to explore and experiment with:
Chemistry of BEER with Metropolitan Brewery (see YouTube video here)
Chemistry of WHISKEY with Koval Distillery
Chemistry of COSMETICS with Chemist’s Corner (see YouTube video here)
Chemistry of CHOCOLATE with Blommer Chocolate Company (see YouTube video here)
Chemistry of HONEY with Notebaert Nature Museum
Chemistry of COFFEE with Intelligentsia Coffee (see YouTube video here)
We raise our beaker to Dr. Shelby Hatch of Northwestern University for contributing her time, brains, experience and all around great attitude to this effort. It couldn’t have happened without her. Also a big cheer and thank you to our collaborating partners. They show how science is happening every day in Chicago companies all around us in ways we never stop to consider.
With a little encouragement (or perhaps sponsorship) ISC may offer repeats, or new programs in 2012 to continue the fun.
