WileECoyote  Laurene Powell Jobs Ms. Powell Jobs has a net worth estimated at $11.5 billion, according to Bloomberg, most of it in shares of the Walt Disney Company. Mr. Jobs helped found the animation studio Pixar, which Disney acquired in 2006 and paid for in stock. With 131 million shares, worth about $8.7 billion, the Laurene Powell Jobs Trust is Disney’s largest shareholder with a 7.3 percent stake in the company, and she has benefited from the stock having more than doubled since her husband died in October 2011. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/17/busines... about 21 hours ago

kevin  @seeker just wondering why you switched TD Ameritrade's name to TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation...any particular reason? I think it's best to go with the name that it is referred to by on its website, in the press, etc, eg tdameritrade.com 3 days ago

kevin  @lifewinning one way to build out the Cooper Union page -- click "match related donors" in the righthand column under expert tools, then cycle through by clicking "verify and match another." that will load in all federal $ data and tell you which politicians they're close to, who is most politically active on the board, etc. 9 days ago

ATeixeira  ATeixeira Hi @seeker and @Kevin! Thanks a lot for the reply. I am currently working on CEO ties for my master thesis, and I found LittleSis quite useful. Still, I was more interested in assessing current board ties. The inclusion of past directors in this section might have ruined it :/. Let me ask you one more thing: if i select "board members and executives", these include solely current members? Thanks a lot anyway! I appreciate it. 3 months ago

kevin  @ATeixeira Hi! the board page includes the board and also top execs (that's why it says "board members and executives"), and also includes past board members. it's built through a combination of scraping of SEC filings and manual edits. 3 months ago

ATeixeira  could someone explain to me how the section "board members and executives" has been built? Some board sizes are clearly wrong (e.g., McDonalds has 13 members in the board, not 36). Thanks! 3 months ago

kevin  DonorsTrust is apparently used by right-wing donors to scrub their fingerprints from various donations in support of climate change denial and the like. If anyone has interest it would be good to get the grantees from their 2010 990 into LittleSis (by transcribing to a spreadsheet and bulk adding donation relationships): http://207.153.189.83/EINS/522166327/5221... some dots connected here: http://www.desmogblog.com/2012/10/23/fake... 4 months ago
