As outlined in my last post, many sponsors rely on good luck and hope for results from sponsorships, especially smaller events like golf tournaments. While it is easy to avoid the rigor and effort required to generate value from these mini sponsorships, here are five simple ways to ensure these investments provide a return.
- Preplan. While spontaneity is the spice of life, taking the time to gather information from the tournament organizer on who is attending – organizations, specific player names and level in the organization will yield great value. Instead of selecting employees who would like the day off and are willing to represent your company at the tournament, select representatives who can represent your company the best. And request the tournament organizer place your players on teams based on your needs. While it doesn't always work out, they should play with the executive from your highest volume customer, a prospective new client or a past customer lost to a competitor.
- Prep your players. Tournaments are social events and players should enjoy themselves. But as representatives of your company it is worthwhile ensuring they are familiar with key issues in the company. Even if they are from IT, finance, HR or other functions they need to be able to answer questions about your company – financial results, new products, your involvement in the community, or other questions your customers or prospects will ask about.
- Be innovative in the SWAG you bring. Bringing golf balls, golf shirts, hats or other promotional items as tournament prizes is so easy. But they add little value and make your company look average and not very innovative. Offer prizes that will get participants notice how unique your company is. As well, ensure your signage at the tournament represents your company well by demanding more than a logo on a sign no one read. Use your creativity to create an activation program that engages participants. It is likely no one else is doing this so your company will stand out.
- Debrief. Once the tournament is over, take a few minutes to debrief your team to discuss what they discovered at the tournament – new opportunity, unresolved complaint from a customer, misunderstanding of an issue your company is facing, competitor information and provide an evaluation of the tournament value for next year. You might be surprised what information you can pass along to your sales team, customer service group or operational managers .
- Thanks for a nice day. Once you leave the course, your day isn't over. Following up with team members or contacts made at the tournament should be a standard operating procedure. It is helpful if you put in place a process that every representative can use to ensure they follow-up on a sales opportunity or to ensure a customer complaint is dealt with.
Good luck and serendipity do happen. But they aren't assured. Developing a strategy for these small investments will produce tangible business results. Enjoy your tournament season and turn these investments into ones that really make a difference.

The school shooting in Connecticut is weighing heavily on our hearts. As school teachers and students across the country headed back to school Monday, many showed their support for the victims and their families.
The tragedy in Newtown may have happened many miles away from Beaufort but it's certainly hitting home at area schools including Mossy Oaks Elementary.
"It's all on everyone's mind," said Donald Gruel, Mossy Oaks Elementary principal. "I came in here on Saturday and changed the sign because I just felt that we wanted the community to know our thoughts and prayers are with them and I think everyone as they walk the hallways today, parents included, are just very concerned."
The American flag outside the school is now at half staff and many teachers and students at the school wore green and white Monday to show their support.
"To show that I care about what happens no matter if it is here or not," said Oscar Eller, Mossy Oaks Elementary student.
Many at Riverview Charter School also took part in this national effort.
"Green and white were the school colors so I wore this today to support them," said Kendall Duncan, Riverview Charter School student.
"I'm just hoping the green shows much thought the United States that people care and feel bad for all those families who lost their children," said Sarah McMullen, Riverview Charter School student.
"Just to show support for the horrible tragedy in Connecticut and just to let those families know we are thinking about them and that we are with them in what is clearly a horrible time of grief for them," said Alison Thomas, Riverview Charter School principal.
"I just thought about how sad that would feel if that happened to the little kids at our school," said McMullen.
In light of all that's happened, educators at most every school have a heightened awareness and are mindful of the precious responsibilities they have.
"I personally have three children of my own and 440 children of my own at school. I just want each and every parent to know that we're going to do everything we need to do to keep them safe," said Gruel.

text: In the midst of the controversy surrounding Judge G.Todd Baugh's sentencing in the case involving a former teacher, we turn our attention to the victim.Cherice Moralez, the 14-year-old who was sexually assaulted by former Billings Senior High teacher Stacey Rambold, later killed herself. And on World Suicide Prevention Day, we remember Moralez."She was great. She was beautiful. I mean, Ooh. Foolish, you know, obviously, but she was artistic. She lit up a room when she walked in. Very smart. Sometimes a little too smart," said Auliea Hanlon, the victims mother.Hanlon said Cherice was shunned for reporting the rape and she was bullied at school."She went back initially and I think, you know, she was getting side stepped in the halls. She did receive a couple of threats," said Hanlon. Hanlon said Cherice was constantly being questioned by not only the Billings Police Department, but by fellow students too."Is this true, is this not true. Did this happen? And I think that weighed heavy on her and she wasn't vindicated and it was taking forever," said Hanlon.Nearly three years later, Cherice took her life."She didn't really like to talk about it. She went, she tried to get her education because she had hopes and dreams. But, it was just too hard on her, and she couldn't do it." Judge Baugh's 31-day sentence in the Rambold case is currently under appeal.A suicide prevention walk is being held this Sunday, September 15th at 2:00 PM. Out of Darkness Yellowstone Valley is holding the walk for support at Veterans Park in Billings.

Several times now I've seen on a Dolphins site "We should give away ALL of our picks to the Rams for RGIII!" Some fans seam desperate while others just want results. They want a QB and bad. So this got me thinking. What if we really got all of the Phins picks? I'm not all that great with the later rounds so I'm just doing the first 4 rounds. Fill in the rest if you want in the comments. I had more than one selection for the picks because its so hard to tell who rises and who falls but my first choice is followed by the second. Here goes.
#9 Riley Reiff OT/David Decastro OG
#33 Zach Brown OLB/Peter Konz C
#42 Mohamad Sanu WR/Jerel Worthy DT
#66 Bobby Wagner OLB/Alameda Ta'any DT
#72 LMJ RB/Kevin Zeitler OG
#96 Isaiah Pead RB/Brian Quick WR
#104 Tommy Streeter WR/Nigel Bradham LB
I think there are a combo of players in there that would quickly reload our roster. Sorry about the lack of insight on the players, I just like to make the picks and see what you have to say. Comments welcome weather you agree or not.

PHOENIX (AP) - A federal judge has ruled that Arizona's compact governing Indian gaming doesn't ban more tribal casinos from opening in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
Tuesday's ruling could clear the way for the Tohono O'odham Nation, which has battled since 2009 to open a massive resort and casino near Glendale.
The tribe previously purchased the site after receiving a $30 million federal settlement to replace nearly 10,000 acres of ancestral reservation land damaged by a dam.
The Tohono O'odham Nation already operates three casinos in southern Arizona.
The federal government declared the land a reservation in 2010 despite opposition from state and local officials who argued tribes shouldn't be allowed to turn random parcels of property into a reservation.
Gila River Gov. Gregory Mendoza says his tribe will consider an appeal.

MIDDLESBROUGH are still searching for their first points of 2012 after suffering a potentially damaging defeat to morale at the Championship's bottom club, Coventry City.
Boro's cause was not helped by a controversial decision from referee Gary Sutton to send off Kevin Thomson for two bookable offences just two minutes after the Sky Blues had taken a first half lead through Gary McShefferey.
And then things worsened in injury-time when Julio Arca, the former Sunderland midfielder, was handed a three-match ban for a straight red card for a foul on Sammy Clingan.
It is a moment that has cost Arca, and his team-mates, his appearance against the Black Cats at the Stadium of Light next Sunday.
Boro did not help themselves at the Ricoh Arena, when poor defending allowed Coventry to end a run of three successive defeats in fine style with a 3-1 win.
While Lukas Jukiewicz, who recently left Coventry to join Boro for £1.5m, was left in the stands because of an agreement between the two managers, another player familiar to both clubs took centre stage.
Alex Nimely, making his debut for Andy Thorn's side following his loan from Manchester City, set up the first, scored a second and then had a role to play in the third, which was a Matthew Bates own goal.
Scott McDonald did pull one back with plenty of time remaining for Middlesbrough, but that was small consolation for Tony Mowbray, whose side have now failed to win any of their three Championship games since the turn of the year.
Mowbray had every right to be frustrated. His players should have been ahead within the first ten minutes, with McDonald culpable for wasting three good opportunities.
And when Clive Platt played a cute pass in to Nimely, he rolled McShefferey in behind the visiting defence to slot beneath Danny Coyne.
Then Thomson, having already picked up a harsh yellow card for a first tackle on full-back Cyrus Christie, was given a second booking for leaving his foot in on McShefferey deep inside the Coventry half.
That paved the way for a second half in which Coventry took control. Their second arrived when Nimely, who failed to score in ten games for Boro, headed over the line despite Rhys Williams' attempts to clear.
And four minutes later Nimely was involved again. This time he rolled out wide to substitute David Bell, whose low cross was miss-hit by Platt on to Bates and the ball trickled beyond Coyne.
Coventry, who had never previously scored three this season, couldn't believe their luck. Even though McDonald pulled one back shortly after for Middlesbrough, the damage had already been done and then Arca saw red.

Ring in the New Year: LeBron James gets engaged
- 10:12 am Sunday, January 1st, 2012 by Ethan J. Skolnick
I'm resisting the urge to write that King James has found his queen.
Though, naturally, many others on (TMZ)SPN won't.
And, anyway, she's pretty much been with him all along.
After midnight, and the dawn of 2012, Chris Paul broke the news on Twitter that his close friend LeBron James had become engaged to his long-time girlfriend — and mother of his two sons — Savannah Brinson. Brinson is also from Ohio, and has been visible in James' charity work.
On Friday, Brinson tweeted:
"Wishing a very special person in my life a very, very Happy Birthday!! I love you so much!!!! @KingJames"

Natural Born Citizen, explained
by Mark Yannone
On Monday, July 6, The Washington Times carried a full-page "advertorial" written by Attorney Mario Apuzzo. Paid for by Charles F. Kerchner Jr., lead plaintiff in the active case of Kerchner et al v. Obama and Congress et al, the 1100-word document reveals the law that prohibits an Obama presidency.
"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President."
"Natural born Citizen status requires not only birth on U.S. soil but also birth to parents who are both U.S. citizens by birth or naturalization."
The explanation and logic are clear and unmistakable, even to those who have difficulty setting aside their irrational emotions and manias. Only the ability to read English with moderate comprehension, and the willingness to do so, are required. Click the advertorial to read it.

Natural Born Citizen, explained

The courts have already decided to ignore the law. Most of the country, and the world, have accepted this pretender. Just what can we do about it??

I'm not buying either premise. Stay tuned.

Anonymous is right. Where is the outrage in this pussy country. Everyone wants to bitch and no one wants to fight. So I say shut up about this and get on with being communists. The Fed has you controlled and you are funding your own slavery for the right to exist. any questions, get in touch with me and I'll answer anything you want to know about the planet you live on and why you can't and won't do anything about this.

"Natural born Citizen status requires not only birth on U.S. soil but also birth to parents who are both U.S. citizens by birth or naturalization."
I am unable to locate any Constitutional provision, federal statute or court precedent that establishes such a decision. Can you please provide a reference to such a source?
- Mark Yannone said...
@ Dimensio
Click on the advertorial image.
- Dimensio said...
The PDF document makes reference only to one court ruling, US v. Kuhn, however this ruling makes no statement regarding the definition of "natural born" as it relates to the status of United States citizenship. The document makes no reference to any other court decision where the term is defined, nor is any reference either to Constitutional provision nor federal statute provided. As such, the claim remains unsubstantiated.
Until and unless a reference to a court precedent, federal statute or Constitutional provision is provided that corroborates the asserted definition of "natural born" as stated in the document, such a definition has no legal basis and is not just grounds for arguing that Mr. Obama is not a "natural born" citizen and thus ineligible for the United States presidency.
- Mark Yannone said...
Keep reading. The original intent of the founders weighs heavily.

I posted a video to help explain Obama's ineligibility.
- Anonymous said...
The quo warranto actions are also in the pipeline. The legal brief in three sections will go into the legal background much further.
Perhaps this will help.
- Lewie said...
The only thing the video "explains" is that Obama jr. could have dual citizenship (you've heard of that, right?). Just because one country considers you a native has no bearing on what another country will consider you.
For example, on German citizenship:
"People born to a parent who was a German citizen at the time of birth are usually German citizens on that basis. It does not matter whether they were born in Germany or not. Nor does it matter if the parent is a naturalised German."
Technically if one is born in the US to parents with German citizenship, the child would be considered a citizen in Germany, but could also be considered a US born citizen.
The same thing happens with US/Canadians. The person has to choose which citizenship he/she wants by the age of 18.
- MinutemanCDC_SC said...
Dimensio, Stephen Tonchen's digest of attorney Leo Donofrio's research more fully explains Constitutional principles and court decisions and precedents.
The subject suffers from complexity, and many casual observers oversimplify what they have not studied unto comprehension. You will say, "I know what citizenship and eligibility for office mean." But the majority of the people don't, just as they don't know that the President is elected by the Electoral College, or that Dick Cheney was the Vice President under Pres. George W. Bush.
For example, a citizen is a person born in the United States and subject to U.S. jurisdiction (political loyalty, which excludes diplomats and Native Americans), OR a person born to a father who is a U.S. citizen. With women's suffrage and increasing independence from husbands, the second category has expanded to a person born to a mother who is a U.S. citizen.
In contrast, a natural born citizen is one born in the United States (ius soli) to U.S. citizen parents (ius sanguinis). To be a natural born citizen is required only for the office of the President (and by extension, for the purpose of the line of succession, the Vice President, in case of the resignation, incapacity, death, or impeachment of the President).
Concerning eligibility, a U.S. Senator must be a U.S. citizen - by birth in the U.S. or to U.S. parents, or by naturalization - have resided in the U.S. for nine years, and be at least 30 years of age. For the sake of seniority, there is no requirement that a Senator must be of sound mind and not senile. Actually, there is no requirement that a Senator have a pulse, although it would help, in case he needed to cast a vote.
A U.S. President must be a U.S. citizen, and also be a natural born citizen. To be a citizen is not enough; he must be a natural born citizen to be eligible for the office of President. He must also be at least 35 years of age and a resident of the U.S. for fourteen years.
There are numerous such distinctions upon which this issue hinges. Although the downstream media have convinced the sheeple that the details don't matter - and indeed, that the Constitution doesn't matter - those very Constitutional rules and restraints are the first line of defense against a few hundred enemies of freedom hijacking the ship of state and turning the U.S. into a totalitarian oligarchy and a police state.
And no, we're not already there. It may be too late to turn the ship around, but there may still be time to keep pirates from scuttling the ship or running her aground.

@ Lewie
Those who choose their citizenship are US citizens, not natural born US citizens.

Give that bitch the black seed, we need more mixed race to replace the British race!


text:
As fans we all get excited and give our thoughts on what the team should do, not do, or hypothetically what we would like to see. I think it is safe to assume we all want a QBOTF. The thing is, we keep tossing around names like Manziel (exciting, but not worth a high pick in terms of NFL productivity IMO) , Bortles (same), and especially Carr, who I think will be like his brother and not pan out, strong arm or not. Slick Rick is for sure at times egocentric, confounding, lost, and even at times right on the money, but I just cannot imagine him willing to take a shot on these QB's if his career is hanging on it. He is just too conservative to play that game.
Soooo...we go defense defense defense, give Zimmer the ability to stack up players he see's fit, address our needs at LB, DL, CB, and maybe even OL, and if a decent QB falls to us in late rounds, we grab him at a low risk . The Mallett talk is heating up, but I fear we have at times been Belichick's bitch on some of these previous trades, and I hope we do not give up high picks to grab him. Ol' Bill would be a nasty card player for sure, making everyone believe since he is such a great coach, his guy is surly worth a #1 or a few #2's, when he has only thrown 4 passes in his career. Will Rick take the bait???
Bridgewater is the only guy who is NFL ready, I would take a chance on him. Maybe Norv can pull off the miracle of a lifetime and make Happy Feet Ponder serviceable enough to where our defense controls the game and he is not needed to be a superhero until we get a chance to pick a real stud, not question mark guys like Carr, Manziel, Bortles, etc on a high pick. If Rick does pick any of those guys, expect to see a vacancy at the GM spot soon.

So this past fall Diaw picked up this Segway x2 which has a modest top speed of 12.5 mph.
"I always heard about the Segway, see the cops on them, and I thought it was a good idea, especially when it's cold and don't necessarily want to walk," Diaw explained. "Because I had two cars...and I wanted to sell one anyway, I sold one and got a Segway instead.
"For short distances it's the best, and then I just take my car when I've gotta go to the airport. ... In everyday life, just take the Segway because you can go anywhere, go in the arena, and it's better than parking in the parking deck."

Mallya to list United Spirits on overseas bourses
Boby Kurian
Bangalore/Toulouse , April 25
THE UB Group Chairman, Mr Vijay Mallya, on Monday disclosed that he would list United Spirits Ltd on overseas bourses, either on the London Stock Exchange or Singapore Stock Exchange.
Speaking to Business Line in Toulouse, Mr Mallya said overseas listing of United Spirits Ltd, which will be the world's third largest spirits marketer by volume, was a distinct possibility.
"We will surely go in for overseas listing either in London or in Singapore," he said. It is learnt that such a move is likely to fructify between the next 18 to 24 months, after Mr Mallya completes the consolidation of his four existing spirits companies - McDowell & Co, Herbertsons, Triumph Distillers & Vintners, and the recently acquired Shaw Wallace & Co - under the banner of United Spirits.
My Mallya's statement about overseas float confirms a speculation that has been doing rounds in the last few weeks. Mr Mallya also confirmed that he would look at a valuation of Rs 10,000 crore (rougly $2 billion) for United Spirits Ltd, which this newspaper had reported earlier as some key associates of the UB Chairman went into the market capitalisation mode. Sources said overseas listing was close to Mr Mallya's heart as he felt that local bourses never did justice to liquor stocks.
A sentiment he echoed in Toulose when he said the many "taboos" associated with the liquor industry came in the way of a proper valuation of his stocks.
United Spirits will have combined sales of 56 million cases, which include a list of 13 million cases brands. It will give the company a 50 per cent share of the Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) market pegged at 112 million cases annually. The Indian spirits market is one of the fastest growing in the world with sales projected to grow between eight to 10 per cent in the short to medium term. It must be mentioned that South Korea's leading distilled liquor (Soju) maker, Jinro, attracted a valuation of over $3 billion a few weeks ago.

If you received an iconcepts MP3 4GB digital music player from the Christmas Bureau this year, listen up because the bureau says they may be faulty.
Ann Marie Byrd with Catholic Charities says faulty players were given out on December 11th and 12th, but they will replace them with good ones.
To exchange the player, simply bring the bad one with you to the Christmas Bureau at 404 W. Havana at the Spokane County Fairgrounds no later than Friday December 20th, by 2:00pm.
This recall is only for the inconcepts brand players. The Sound-X 2GB players distributed on those days work just fine and don't need to be returned.

LOS ANGELES — Padres manager Bud Black said before the game that he was going to be cautious anyway with Aaron Harang, who was coming off the disabled list (bruised right foot) and making his first start since June 9.
Still, Harang had a no-hitter through six innings. But he'd also thrown 95 pitches, 37 of them in a wobbly first inning before he settled down, and so Black said enough. The bullpen has inherited the no-hitter in the seventh; left-hander Josh Spence got one out, and Chad Qualls stranded two runners after an error and walk to preserve the no-no.
But the Padres had only one hit in six innings off Rubby De La Rosa, and through seven neither team has scored. It is, in short, a marvelous example of why these teams are at the bottom of the National League West.

Hunter on rookie Marshall: 'He's going to be a great floor leader'
Originally published: Feb 22, 2013 - 10:40 am
And there wasn't much playing time for the veteran point guard because of the emergence of rookie Kendall Marshall.
Taken with the 15th pick in the 2012 draft, Marshall has played double-digit minutes in nine of the team's last 11 games, posting averages of 3.3 points and 2.3 assists per game.
Those numbers are not exactly eye-popping, but it's a belief in Marshall's future that led to the team ensuring there will be playing time for former North Carolina Tar Heel right now.
"He's really a bright kid, probably too bright for his own good sometimes," Suns head coach Lindsey Hunter said as part of the Suns Midseason Report show Thursday. "He absorbs everything, he learns really fast.
"We've thrown a lot at him lately, given him a lot of responsibility."
Hunter said the team has done that because they think Marshall can handle things.
"He's going to be a great floor leader; he knows the game in and out," Hunter added. "And he possesses some of the things that you don't see from young players today, and that's ability to know what's going on ahead of time. That's a phenomenal asset that he has."
Hunter likened that quality to one Steve Nash and Jason Kidd share, and said the rookie's emergence has allowed him to shift Goran Dragic to the shooting guard spot when the situation calls for a change.
"It frees up Goran a lot to just create and to attack, and right now we don't have that two guard who can just attack, so I think moving Goran over frees him up to be that," he said. "Just gives him a different a different look and gives the other team a different look also."

East Lancashire residents asked to look after waterways
3:27pm Thursday 10th April 2014 in News
PEOPLE in East Lancashire are being asked to help look after their local waterways by joining volunteer teams.
The call comes from the Canal & River Trust — the charity that cares for 2,000 miles of waterways in England and Wales — which is recruiting people to a number of its Towpath Taskforce teams.
The taskforces encourage people to help protect some of Lancashire's most important heritage and wildlife habitats.
The teams carry out a variety of jobs including planting wildflowers and bulbs, clearing overgrowth, painting the locks and cutting back vegetation overhanging the towpaths.
Matt Taylor, volunteer co-ordinator for the Canal and River Trust, said: "Lancashire's waterways are a proud part of the region's history. If people could spare a few hours, it will make the canals a much nicer place to visit."
More details are available by visiting the website www.canalrivertrust.org.uk/towpathtaskforce.

Shocking surveillance video of a deadly police beating was shown in court during the preliminary hearing of two police officers charged with the murder of a homeless man.
On Monday afternoon, court watchers in the Santa Ana courtroom saw a 35-minute video shot on a surveillance camera at a Fullerton bus depot. The video depicted the entire incident that left Kelly Thomas fatally injured and lying in a pool of blood after a beating by six police officers.
Several Thomas supporters left the courtroom during the video, prompting Judge Walter Schwarm to pause the video to tell gallery members to leave the courtroom if they couldn't watch quietly.
The footage, which can be seen below, captured audio from the incident as well. Ofc. Manuel Anthony Ramos, now charged with second-degree murder, is heard threatening Thomas: "Now, you see my fists?… They're getting ready to f*ck you up… If you don't start f*cking listening." Ofc. Jay Patrick Cicinelli is seen tasering Thomas and then hitting the homeless man in the face. Later in the video, Cicinelli says "I just smashed his face to hell. He's on something dude… three of us couldn't even control him."
Throughout the video victim Kelly Thomas can be heard apologizing repeatedly: "I am sorry dude, I can't breathe, dude." At several points, Thomas cries out for his father, screaming "Dad, they are killing me." After court, the victim's father Ron Thomas told reporters "the sounds of my son calling out" was the hardest part to hear.
Defense attorneys for two Fullerton police officers accused of killing a homeless man attempted to mine a videotape of the deadly beating for evidence that the death resulted from the medical treatment after the incident.
Attorneys for Ofcs. Manuel Anthony Ramos and Jay Patrick Cicinelli fought back after a tough first day of their preliminary hearing punctuated by the screening of a 35-minute video depicting police physically assaulting homeless schizophrenic Kelly Thomas. Dr. Michael Lekawa, a trauma surgeon at UCI Medical Center, was asked to point out specific times in the video where Thomas stopped breathing. The witness claimed that the processes by which a body is deprived of oxygen occur gradually – and that Thomas' death was likely a result of cumulative blows as opposed to any one strike.
Dr. Lekawa did point to one moment on the video in which Thomas seemed to have trouble drawing breath – it was just after Cicinelli tasered Thomas and then hit him repeatedly with the butt of the Taser.
Pathologist Aruna Singhania, who performed the autopsy on Kelly Thomas, was the last witness of the day. When prosecutors showed gruesome autopsy photos to underscore the severity of the beating Thomas' family members left the courtroom.
The hearing is expected to conclude today, after cross examination of Dr. Singhania.

It wasn't long ago that the acquisition of Lucio from Bayern Munich helped catapult Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan to the European Cup. As Inter and Mourinho celebrated a famous Champions League win, it would have seem insane to suggest that the Lucio era at the San Siro would last just three years. And yet, here we are. No more Lucio.
It's not even much of a surprise. Inter's defence never recovered from Mourinho's departure, Lucio is 34 years old and had fallen out of of favour with the club. But still - this is a man who two years ago was part of the game's most solid defensive line. Now his stock has fallen so much that he's have his contract cancelled with two years left to run. Lucio's not so far gone that he's going to be out of the game entirely, and he's been linked to plenty of teams this summer, but the fact that he's been released is indicative that his value after his wages is approximately €0. Pretty spectacular.

Speaking with MTV this past weekend at Rock The Bells... (aka Yasiin):
CooleyHi | October 30, 2011 10:24 AM
Why such anger towards a name change. And I didnt see this elsewhere but here ( no TV in Bahrain). Reminds me of the scene in Coming to America; call the man Ali, or Mama named him Clay Ima call em Clay. Whats the big deal really, really?
darkan | September 7, 2011 8:36 AM
You guys are too easy. So if an artist like Jay -Z decides to call himself a God like Jehova or... wait a second that already happened and people still follow him. SMDH. People are sheeple and promote clown behavior. There is more important news than when these clowns change their names. That's what upsets me. The fact that a name change becomes news and here we are as a black community and there is no work or funded films in Hollywood but it's important for Mos Def to have attention about his name change???
Ash | September 7, 2011 4:54 AM
Well this didn't really bother me. But I don't understand why he's changing his name. He states in the interview he didn't like hiding behind a moniker and yet he's given himself another one. Or maybe I just missed that. Also, is he no longer rapping? Is that why he's changing his name because he's going to act exclusively now?

idk. i always hate adjusting to calling folks by their new names. and sometimes, folks like diddy do come off as clowns. but i appreciate that Mos, soon to be Yasiin, isn't going to be an ass about the change, no anger and what not. and if you go by what he actually said, it draws the rest of us closer to the person he feels himself to be, which makes sense if you're trying to be an honest artist rather than always performing your public persona. in that sense, i support the change. it's easy to be cynical with regards to celebrities but not everyone is full of it.
niela | September 7, 2011 2:17 AM
i believe he changed his name to yasiin in accordance with his cultural and/or religious beliefs. are people not allowed to do that without invoking the ire of others? even if it wasn't for those aforementioned reasons, it seems a bit weird to spaz out over a person's right to be called what they want to be called.
JMac | September 7, 2011 1:44 AM
I like him. Nothing about his roles or personality shouts "clown" to me but maybe you've seen more of him than I have. Still, why doesn't he just use his real name instead of another moniker?
MiddleMyatt | September 7, 2011 1:41 AM
What self-important absurdity! So he's actually changing it at the end of the year, huh? How kindly considerate of him -- give us, his fawning public -- enough time to adjust to the important change. Why do we accommodate such foolishness from these man/boy rappers/entertainers? I enjoy his acting, but until Mos Def -- or Yasiin -- or whomever he wants to call himself produces a musical body of work as substantial as Prince's I'm not so willing to play these little name games with him (that goes for P-Diddy/Puff Daddy/etc., too)!
AccidentalVisitor | September 6, 2011 12:49 PM
But, darkan, at least he is American. :)
Seriously though I don't begrudge Mos Def like the other rappers because he started as an actor first. Hip-hop became his second career.
darkan | September 6, 2011 11:57 AM
What a clown. These actors used to be rappers are clowns. This is what happens when we stick microphones in the faces of artists who think they are more enlightened or "illuminated" then the average man or woman. What a clown. SMDH.
Jack | September 6, 2011 11:38 AM
Mos Def is great as a actor but I really hate when someone changes there name like that it is understandable in some cases but Mos Def thats not that bad of a name.

In terms of my thoughts on the ending I haven't seen them all yet and I don't think the story as a whole was as strong as some of Rockstar's other output, but I think the delivery was by far the strongest of their open world games as by having lots of different characters and story threads it all felt relevant, compared to in GTA 4 or Red Dead where the story was more focussed but in order to make the game long there was a lot of what I would consider to be padding, which lessened the impact imo.

Government Law
Town sues 'Robin Hood' citizen group known for feeding parking meters, says it harasses workers
By Martha Neil
May 14, 2013, 04:40 pm CDT
This practice would probably bankrupt D.C.
By Hedgehog on 2013 05 15, 11:35 am CDT
Just curious why they are called "Robin Hooders" - they don't steal from the rich and give to the poor, do they? Wouldn't "Parking Guardian Angels" be more appropriate? I am talking about the meter feeding, not harassment of parking officers (the latter part I don't have too much sympathy for, everybody hates the parking meters but these guys are just doing their job).
By Peter Roos on 2013 05 17, 6:51 am CDT
I'm sorry, but these guys sound like jerks. Honestly, if the best thing you can come up with for your free time is to pay other people's meters, then your life has gone wrong in so many ways.
By Island Attorney on 2013 05 17, 7:22 am CDT
If all they are doing is paying other peoples parking meters, BRAVO!!!!
As to the allegations of harrasment, etc., I will withold my opinion until the evidence is presented.
It is so rare that people are willing to do something nice for strangers, especially if it involves financial loss (small as it may be).
If doing good deeds and helping others makes one a "jerk", then I wish we had more "jerks" in the world!
By Guilin Expat on 2013 05 17, 7:50 am CDT
My roomates and I did this all the time in Ann Arbor (U of Michigan) - As students getting tapped for a $5 parking ticket was the worst. When we saw the meter person at the top of our street, we would all check our pockets for dimes and nickles and run out and feed the five or ten meters in front of our apartment. It did not matter whose car it was, we fed them all. Fight the Power!
By Matthew on 2013 05 17, 7:52 am CDT
I understand the point that parking officers are just doing their job, but seeking injunctive relief for them is just ridiculous. Parking officers ARE state actors. Videotaping a state employee, in public, (especially while they are enforcing the law) simply is not harassment. And unless the verbal taunting crosses a certain line, same thing. If somebody wants to tell a meter man, in public while they are enforcing the law that they are a fascist pig, that's what the First Amendment is for.
By Bruce on 2013 05 17, 8:11 am CDT
@Island Attorney - so your position is someone who performs random acts of kindness for strangers is an individual whose "life has gone wrong"? May one ask what contributions you make to society that are superior?
By NYS Courts ex-wife on 2013 05 17, 8:41 am CDT
@7 Somebody has to pick up the torch for the "pro bono work is baloney" contingent here.
By Jesquire on 2013 05 17, 10:10 am CDT
@Hedgehog, I think you're forgetting that D.C. would just ticket legally parked cars, which has happened to me several times, and required the owner to file a "Motion to Vacate Judgement." That's right, judgment with an 'e' (such a spelling might work in the UK, but even there it's only used in a non-legal context).
By Obscurant on 2013 05 17, 10:21 am CDT
I find this story entertaining on so many levels.
"Contending that their harassment of parking enforcement officers could force the workers to quit if a court doesn't grant relief ... the suit seeks injunctive relief in the form of a court order prohibiting the members of the group from approaching the workers while they are on the job."
Gosh, yeah, I sure hope the town doesn't lose that incredibly valuable, virtually irreplaceable pool of employee skillz known as "parking enforcement." I mean, we have virtually no unemployment, so how would the town ever find replacements to hire? And I'm sure those "officers" could take their talents to South Beach in a heartbeat.
Also, good luck with that injunction under the First Amendment, as Bruce @ 6 notes.
Second, to Peter @ 2, while I like your alternative group name as well, my guess would be that the perceived "rich" from whom they are "stealing" is the law enforcement establishment, as Matthew @ 5 humorously notes. I realize this is just a small N.H. town, but in these days of the "War on Terror" (I bet "terror" is terrified now that we are at war with it) and the "War on Drugs," law enforcement / gov't bureaucracy is definitely one of the richest targets around. And in my mid-sized city at least, the fee for a simple expired meter has increased exponentially in recent years. Used to be not much more than Matthew cites, and is now over $30.
Island Atty, you must just be grumpy today. I guess even in paradise this is possible sometimes? IF these Robin Hooders are, say, shouting personal insults at the officers while plugging the meters, that's not too cool, but they are still fundamentally doing good deeds. Maybe not quite up there with eradicating malaria from the Third World, but it's still something.
Finally, I will note that at least the town isn't trying to criminally prosecute these Robin Hooders. In Ohio, or some parts thereof anyway, it is apparently actually against the law to feed another person's meter. Seriously. There was an infamous case around here several years back where the state actually arrested and tried a little old grandma for doing what this group is doing—only she wasn't even "harassing" anyone, simply walking around and feeding expired or about-to-expire meters out of the goodness of her heart. I don't recall the outcome of the case, but it sure made me appreciate the availability of jury nullification.
By Just Some Bloke on 2013 05 17, 10:45 am CDT
DC regularly tickets legally parked cars with sticker showing plenty of time left. Count on it if you have a european car or plates other than DC. There is nowhere on site any indication as to where to place those paper receipts indicating how much time you have paid for. And that's just what DC wants. If you have it on the left - driver's side - you get a ticket. If you have it on the right, passenger's side, you get a ticket. If you have it in the middle, you guessed it - you get a ticket. IF you are lucky enough and find the officer who wrote the ticket and show your receipt to him/her asking why they gave you the ticket, they will tell you that you had it on the wrong side of the car and they didn't see it. On the driver's side, they would have to walk on the street. On the passenger's site, it's not where it's supposed to be. On the middle of the dashboard, it would require them to walk between cars to see it. And of course, if you don't find the officer - the most likely outcome - you'd have to go to court. How much is your hourly rate? How much is your time worth to you? Your aggravation? They know all that! They know it, that's why they count on getting away with it. And away, they get.
By Sanja on 2013 05 17, 11:50 am CDT
I think a point is being missed. It's not just the desired extra revenue for the town's coffers (although anyone who has been nabbed by those atrocious intersection cameras in Chicago's suburbs that trap yellow-light violators, sans cops, can tell you how obnoxious these generate-revenue-from-fining-the-citizens laws are). The main reason is, not letting one parker monopolize the parking space. If it's a 2-hour meter, that's what you get. 1 hour, the same. Maybe 12 minutes. Then you get in your car and get out of the spot so someone else can park. In my small city (no longer Chicago, which has the most outrageously high parking costs I have ever seen-thanks, Mayor Daley), the downtown workers will park on Main Street and close-by streets that are metered for 2 or 4 hours. Then they will run out and plug them (or have someone else do so) just before the time is up. Customers drive around and have no place to park. That's the rationale for no meter-plugging, more than trying to get more parking revenue. These vigilante Robin Hoods likely mean well, but I can see the town's point, too.

@6 Unfortunately, in Keene, recording a public employee doing his job is a felony (see copblock.org).
By DC on 2013 05 17, 12:44 pm CDT
Such a first world problem
By Hadley V. Baxendale on 2013 05 17, 3:44 pm CDT
TG1974JD, just fyi, that's not the way it works in Keene. They chalk your tires and check back in 2 hours - if the car hasn't been moved, you get a ticket even though the meter has been fed. Parking tickets are $10 in Keene, and I have to say I have little patience with the Free Keeners, the group that the Robin Hooders are a subset of. The parking meter feeding thing is a gambit trying to get contributions to their cause - they leave a calling card telling you that they saved you from a parking ticket and asking for a donation. I do think their energy could be used elsewhere more constructively than on their supposed "liberty" projects.
By Sneepydog on 2013 05 17, 4:39 pm CDT
I talked to one of the Robin Hooders today. I've known him for years. He's a Libertarian. He lives at the Activist Center in Keene. It must be a Libertarian stronghold. Once I saw him a few years ago writing (in chalk) on the sidewalks "Free Bradley Manning". Just FYI.
By Old Man from New Hampshire on 2013 05 17, 5:24 pm CDT
@ Bruce: I'm sorry Bruce, but I don't see how feeding meters is contributing to society. My comment that these guys sound like jerks is rooted more in their need to video tape and harass (perhaps these guys would prefer the term "forcibly talk to") meter folks.

By Ladylaw on 2013 05 17, 8:35 pm CDT
They used to be called "public servants".
By Me on 2013 05 18, 8:01 am CDT
I've said it before, but I'll say it again: Video/audio recording of a public employee should not be against the law; I believe there are recent appellate court cases that hold that citizens have a right to do so. The 2-party rule is BS; unless one party owes a statutory, fiduciary, or ethical duty to the other to inform them that they are recording (or even NOT to record, which in some states is the rule for attorney-client communications), if one party consents to a recording, that is nothing more nor less than a logical extension of the concept that the other party destroys their expectation of privacy by sharing with that individual—who may then share the content with anyone (again, unless there is a legal, ethical, or statutory duty imposed on that person that creates an expectation of privacy or duty to be informed of the recording). Public officials should never operate in secret, and therefore cannot object to being recorded.
Now, that said, although people have a right to criticize public officials, I can't condone actual harassment. That's not just rude; it borders on interference with official acts. If you don't like the law, work to change the law. Don't harass the people who are tasked with enforcing the law just because you don't like it.
By sb on 2013 05 20, 12:22 pm CDT
I hope someone starts a similar group that pays others' law school loans. That being said, do the beneficiaries of the robin hood group have to report the cost of the meter as income for tax purposes or is it simply a gift?

Sledding at Landreth Park was somewhat quiet today considering both Joplin and Carl Junction school districts had the day off. Both school districts will have to make up the snow days missed at the end of the year.
Parent Karen Brock says that's ok with her considering her kids had a good time today.
"With the sun out it may be the last chance we have to enjoy a little snow and have a good day off with some snow," Brock says. "Once it's all said and done the kids wont miss it a bit. They would much rather give up and have an extra day at the end of the school year and get to do something like this."
Carl Junction kids will have to make up three days at the end of the year.
Joplin will have to make up two days.

The City of Panama City Beach, in cooperation with Attack-One Fire Management Services, Inc., is scheduled to conduct prescribed burns at the city's 2,900 acre Conservation Park during the last two weeks of November and the month of December.
The entrance to Conservation Park is located approximately 1.1 miles west of SR 79 and 1.3 miles north of Panama City Beach Parkway.
Prescribed burns will occur as weather conditions permit and will be conducted by Attack-One Fire Management Services, Inc. crews. The park will remain open to the public, though access will be restricted to certain portions of the site during burn days.
Prescribed fire provides a safe way to apply a natural process, ensure ecosystem health and reduce wildfire risk. Burned lands experience an increase in native wildflowers, bird and other wildlife. The burns at Conservation Park are a critical element of the park management plan as the city begins the process of slowly transforming the site from its former silvaculture (tree farming) composition to a more natural condition.

Since so many members of the Pagan community work as solitaries, and may never come into contact with other Pagans during their lifetime, one issue that comes up as our population ages is that of what to do with magical tools and other items after death. After all, if we have no one magical in our lives to leave these things to, what becomes of them?
The first thing to do is make sure you have a will - and this is something that applies to everyone, not just Pagans. A will allows your family and heirs to take possession of your belongings upon your death, rather than waiting for months, or even years, for a probate court to decide what to do with your stuff. If you haven't consulted an attorney to draw up a will, do so as soon as possible. This way, you can outline (before you die), who gets what.
Now, that having been said - if you don't have any other Pagans in your life right now, to whom do you leave your stuff? Here are a couple of ideas to consider:
- Make friends with the folks at the nearby metaphysical store. They may know of a group or a solitary practitioner who is financially strapped, and who might benefit some day from an anonymous bequest of tools. Of course, if you're young and healthy, it may be a long time before that bequest gets passed along, but the people who run the shop may be able to give you some guidance for the future.
- Talk to a local High Priestess. Many covens offer training programs and classes, and would probably be happy to adopt your magical tools once you've crossed over. Things like Tarot cards and other ritual items can always be incorporated into a lesson, and if you plan ahead, you can make sure you're leaving them to a HPs who will treat your items with respect and dignity.
- Ask your family to take care of your items. Sometimes, people will ask that once they've passed on, that their family members dispose of ritual tools and magical items in a ceremony. You might opt to write out instructions ahead of time, and ask your family to do this. Another option would be to leave everything to one particular family member, if there's someone you'd like to share your beliefs with after you're gone. Ariadne, a Michigan Pagan, says, "When my mother died, she left me all of her ritual items, including her Book of Shadows. I had never been interested in Paganism before that, but once I started reading her material, I saw why she had been so drawn to it. This led me to the path that I'm on today, ten years later."
- Consider getting in touch with a group such as Operation Circle Care, which collects ritual tools, books, and other items for military personnel stationed overseas, and see if they'd like to use them. They're always looking for donations, and it would make a fine legacy indeed to leave your magical tools to such an organization.
Like many other aspects of our lives, our death is something that can often be made simpler by planning ahead. Make sure you have written instructions indicating your wishes, and that way, when the time comes, you can at cross over knowing that your magical tools will be in the hands of someone who will benefit from them.

Our newest shirt is now available for purchase at the Defending Big D store! We'll never forget the power and magic the Nystache brought to the Stars over the past month. You can find this shirt and many more at our official store.
In case anyone is keeping score: Brad Richards 1G-4A for 5 points through 7 games NYR Record 3-2-2 for 8pts good for 10th in East Jamie Benn 2G-6A for 8 points through 9 games DAL Record 7-2-0 for 14pts good for 1st in the West
From the twitter account of @bracketdan (Dan McDowell, co-host of BaD Radio on Sports Radio 1310 The Ticket). Dan was allowed by the Stars to stand on the bench last night during the game to observe and report. One of the things he observed is that Coach Desjardins has a box he stands on behind the bench.
@andrewsdsp mentioned something about Eric Godard and a red corduroy suit so I looked around and found this. I like this guy.
From the good people at Reddit, comes this interesting mockup of what the Dallas Stars futbol jersey might look like. I know I'd buy one. They have a number of other mock ups for a few other teams, here. Please note....these are not real and not for sale.
Just found this today!
Stars @ Wild - Game 82 / Period 3 I know, I know.. 2008 called and they want their little Obama poster deal back. But you know what else 2008 said in that call? They want the Stars back in the playoffs as well! Win the period.. Win the game.. Make the playoffs.
Remember this scene a few years ago Stars? Wouldn't it be nice to have this again? Stars @ Wild - Game 82 / Period 2 .. Bring it on!
Now's the time Stars fans! Get behind our boys! THERE'S STILL TIME!
From the official Pittsburgh Penguins Twitter account, here's James Neal with a fish on the back of his jersey today. For whatever reason. Because of the beaten down nature of today after last night, that's all I've got this afternoon. Ex Stars with fish. Happy April Fools Day? I'm going to go watch some baseball.

Jennifer Hudson: Carnival Cruise Lines Lady
Announcing her new gig with Carnival Cruise Lines, Jennifer Hudson showed up at The Cutting Room in New York City last night (January 22).
The "Dreamgirls" dame looked super sexy in a black blouse that was unbuttoned to reveal a black satin bra as she posed for the press.
Jennifer is headlining a new concert series for Carnival and it turns out she's no stranger to singing on cruise ships.
"I used to work on a cruise ship, a long time ago. That's what I did before I did 'American Idol.' This is like a full circle," she noted.
Jennifer will perform on June 18th and 19th on two different Carnival Cruise Line ships, joined by other acts like Chicago, Daughtry, Foreigner, Gavin DeGraw, Jewel, LeAnn Rimes, and Lady Antebellum.
