Football gets $5,000 for new equipment
April 2, 2013
During its March 27 meeting, the Issaquah School Board approved a $5,000 contribution to the Issaquah High School football team.
The Issaquah High School Football Booster Club donated the money to help the team buy cameras and equipment and help cover any other needs it may have.
Local athletes sign with colleges
February 12, 2013
Two Issaquah and four Liberty high school seniors will officially take their athletic talents to the collegiate level, signing letters of intent to play for universities across the country.
Liberty soccer players Nicolle Marlow, Kailiana Johnson, Katie Noonan and Kiana Hafferty made their college commitments official in a special signing day ceremony at the school Feb. 6. The Patriots soccer team placed fourth in state this year.
Both Marlow and Johnson will play for Washington State University, while Noonan will play for Southeastern Louisiana University and Hafferty will suit up for Seattle Pacific University.
Eastlake hires Skyline's Don Bartel as head football coach
January 22, 2013
Eastlake High School has hired Skyline High School defensive coordinator Don Bartel as its new football coach.
Bartel previously spent three years at Eastlake as a defensive coordinator and also served as the head coach at Enumclaw for four years before joining the Skyline staff this season. He served as the Spartans' defensive coordinator and helped lead them to a 14-0 season and a Class 4A state championship in his only year there.
He now moves just a mile down the road to Eastlake.
Skyline's Peyton Pelluer plays among top 100
January 15, 2013
Peyton Pelluer, a Skyline High School senior linebacker, played in the nationally televised Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl on Jan. 4, in which the East team eventually topped out the West, 17-14.
Pelluer was among 100 high school athletes from across the country handpicked to play in the game at The Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif. The game is sponsored annually by the U.S. Marine Corps and aired on the NFL Network.
Max Browne impresses in All-American Bowl
January 15, 2013
Quarterback Max Browne, a Skyline High School senior and U.S. Army Player of the Year, made the most of his chance playing in the 2013 U.S. Army All-American Bowl on Jan. 5 in San Antonio.
Entering in the fourth quarter for the West squad, Browne went 4-7 and tossed a 16-yard pass with 6:49 left in the game to Derrick Griffin, of Terry High School, in Rosenberg, Texas. Browne then completed a play-action pass to DeSean Smith, of Barbe High School, in Lake Charles, La., for a two-point conversion, that put the West on top 8-7.
Issaquah, Skyline kickers help football teams boot competition
January 1, 2013
Kickers are a strange and quirky bunch.
Often thriving on pressure and almost always being either the scapegoat or the hero, they sit comfortably by themselves during games, lost in their thoughts, while their teammates are passing, catching, running, blocking or tackling. No one wants to sit next to the kicker and jinx or disturb him.
Max Browne earns Gatorade National Football Player of the Year Award
December 25, 2012
At midmorning Dec. 18, Skyline High School quarterback Max Browne was called out of class by his football coach, Mat Taylor, on the pretense that he was needed at an emergency captain's meeting.
Browne fell for it hook, line and sinker. What awaited him in the upstairs classroom stunned him — his parents, a gaggle of cameras, a crowd of friends and, emerging from a hidden spot, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.
Wilson had been summoned to present Browne with the Gatorade National Football Player of the Year Award, one of the most prestigious honors in high school athletics. They had managed to keep it secret from Browne, who later was formally presented the Gatorade trophy during a ceremony in the school's theater packed with classmates.
"I had no idea," Browne said afterward of the ruse. "Totally surprised. It was awesome."
Skyline Spartans cap off perfect season as state champs
December 4, 2012
Jubilant only begins to describe Skyline High School and its fans Dec. 1 at the Tacoma Dome, where the Spartans grabbed their fifth state title in eight years. Skyline beat Bellarmine Prep, 49-24, to win the 4A football state championship.
Cedric Cooper lands on feet after leap to Skyline
December 4, 2012
Difficult circumstances led Cedric Cooper to Skyline High School for his senior year. But he's made an easy transition, helping the top-ranked Spartans return to the Class 4A state football finals.
It's been an unexpected ride for Cooper, a running back and cornerback who played at 2A Foster High School in Tukwila the past two years. He had mixed emotions last summer when family issues forced him and his mom to move in with a friend in Sammamish.
"I wanted to stay at Foster because I had my friends there, but I'm open to a lot of new things," said Cooper, who has moved a lot. He played freshman football in South Carolina.
He's enjoying Skyline's success. Foster was 10-10 in his two seasons.
Max Browne is finalist for U.S. Army Player of the Year Award
December 4, 2012
Skyline High School quarterback Max Browne is one of six finalists for the 2013 U.S. Army Player of the Year Award, given to the nation's most outstanding senior in high school football participating in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl.
The selection process began this fall, as players were evaluated by the U.S. Army All-American Bowl Selection Committee and by coaches from across the country.
"These players possess leadership, dedication and strengths similar to Army Strong soldiers. Being named a finalist for this award only underscores their talents," John Myers, director of marketing for the Army, said in a statement. "These players are outstanding athletes. We congratulate them on their nomination and are proud to have them wear the Army colors."

Chairman says quorum is tough for Plaistow Budget Committee
Recently, Budget Committee Chairman Kristin Savage approached Selectman John Sherman about the possibility of the town drafting a warrant article that would reduce the number of members on the committee.
Currently, the Budget Committee is down several members, making it even more difficult to secure the seven members needed to hold a meeting, Sherman said.
Selectmen Chairman Robert Gray said he would support decreasing the size of the Budget Committee provided there was a formal request from the committee itself.
Town Manager Sean Fitzgerald said the town would also continue to post the openings on the Budget Committee in the hopes of increasing its size back to a full 12 email@example.com

Doug Kass, the much-quoted hedge-fund manager, has a love-hate relationship with Twitter.
Four months ago, Kass, who enjoys writing as much as he does investing, tweeted that he was quitting the micro-blogging site. But he just couldn't stay away from this electronic form of crack cocaine for too long.
"While I don't plan to post as frequently as I have in the past, I recognize (when conducted in a civil manner) that Twitter can be legitimate and value-added platform for instantaneously communicating to others," writes Kass, president of Seabreeze Partners Management.
Kass writes in a piece for The Street that he is "manifestly bullish on the Twitter IPO," arguing that he would pay up to $32.50 a share for Twitter's common shares.
Assuming that Kass' analysis of the company is on the money—and you can judge that for yourself—it remains to be seen how many investors will be lucky enough to get Twitter shares at anything close to that price. As Forbes pointed out in a piece Monday, a stock on average opens for trading at a price 49% higher than the initial public offering price.
That could take the price of Twitter to close to the price Kass is willing to pay for it, making Twitter not such a "manifestly bullish" trade after all for most investors.
We'll forgive Kass for his possibly premature bullishness on a stock that could run nicely in the first moments of trading, especially now that Facebook FB 0.3525423728813559% Facebook Inc. Cl A U.S.: Nasdaq USD74.01 0.26 0.3525423728813559% /Date(1416866401830-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 21942234 AFTER HOURS USD73.99 -0.02 -0.027023375219564924% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 161597 P/E Ratio 68.52777777777777 Market Cap 205603768034.023 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 1767400 More quote details and news » (ticker: FB) has succeeded in silencing many of its doubters.
Kass' piece, written in his typically conversational style, does make a compelling case for Twitter, if not the soon-to-be stock.
"With over 230 million active monthly users and more than 500 million tweets daily, the unique structure of the Twitter experience brings the company smack in the middle of both the mobile delivery of content and advertising," he writes. "Looking forward, the larger the user base becomes the greater the value proposition will be for advertisers—and the greater the worth of Twitter's shares."
While The Street's Kass may be effusive about Twitter, the Financial Times' Lex column is decidedly more cautious on the U.S. megabanks, including JPMorgan Chase JPM 0.8436724565756824% JPMorgan Chase & Co.

(A subscription is required to view story.)
The piece notes that investors might view the big banks as a value right now, given that JPMorgan, Citigroup and BofA trade at nine to 11 times forward earnings, versus 15 times for the Standard & Poor's 500, for a median of 63% of the index. "Since 1999, these banks have traded at a median of 75 per cent of the index, says S&P Capital IQ," FT writes.
But the piece makes the point that the regulatory and economic headwinds that help to explain why the stocks look inexpensive by historical measures may blow harder in the future.
"Enforcement action seems to be intensifying rather than the opposite, and the economy has lost some steam," the FT writes. "If JPMorgan's mortgage settlement is any indication, other banks could be hit with more cash settlement costs and demands for loan forgiveness for consumers. The latter could eat into loan-loss reserves that banks have been releasing to boost earnings. And tapering by the Federal Reserve has been delayed, continuing the squeeze on margins."
After reading this brief but thoughtful piece, I personally wouldn't be piling into a financial-services exchange-traded fund right now.
A perusal of the financial Websites Thursday revealed a few interesting takes on the overall stock market.
An original piece on Minyanville notes that a few cracks in momentum-driven stocks like Tesla Motors TSLA 1.622868440563473% Tesla Motors Inc. U.S.: Nasdaq USD246.72 3.94 1.622868440563473% /Date(1416866400020-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 4756062 AFTER HOURS USD246.38 -0.34 -0.13780804150453957% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 33646 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 30440242725.6689 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 487611 More quote details and news » (TSLA) and a number of social-media companies may indicate that a decline in stocks overall could be next.
The article points out that Tesla, the electric-car maker with a valuation of more than 250 times this year's expected earnings, has failed to hit a new high with the S&P 500 over the past two weeks and its relative performance against the S&P 500 is deteriorating. "It is also possibly forming a bearish technical chart pattern known as a head-and-shoulders top," the piece points out. "Overall, investors should take note of the message the leaders are sending here. Their weakness could be an early sign that traders are beginning to lose faith in the 'story.' "
But Jim Jubak, a veteran MSN Money writer and a man who's seen his share of market cycles, thinks that the stock market can "melt up" for a few months before it finally gives up its gains.
"I think the odds are good—very good indeed—that we'll see one of those big, all-animal-spirits-on-deck upward moves in U.S. stocks from now until at least mid-December," he writes. "That's assuming the markets get past this week's Oct. 30 meeting of the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee without a move by the U.S. central bank to cut back on its $85 billion a month in monetary stimulus. And I think this is a relatively safe assumption."
He adds, however, that an "end-of-the-year melt up wouldn't be all good news for traders and investors. Because it could be a last hurrah."
Jubak's piece, which is built on sentiment indicators, is worth a read for anyone with a bit of the market-timing bug. Not that I encourage such thinking.

5.0 out of 5 stars The 'Kings' Are Back!
The Flower Kings are back with their follow up to 'Banks Of Eden' with a much heavier, proggier and extremely catchy bunch of songs on the album "Desolation Rose". Back at the start of 2013, Roine Stolt, Jonas Reingold, Tomas Bodin, Hasse Froberg and Felix Lehrmann went to the studio with a lot of semi-finished material and decided to jam & record what they had and pretty...

3.0 out of 5 stars Some very good moments, but....
For me this is a very good album, with some very good moments and nice themes and motifs. The lyrics are awful, but this does seem to represent the Flower Kings getting back on track. The first song, Tower One is great and a highlight, but doesn't pose anything new. There seems to be less of the huge amount of filler that we have had in previous albums. I'd recommend...

Cubby Kovu "Likes to Buy things" (Milton Keynes England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Desolation Rose (Audio CD)
Ok it seems the band have listened to my comments or something about using new timbres in their music and using new ideas because the last couple albums did just sort of sound very similar in overall timbre and style and a bit predictable this album however they have done away with the overly symphonic and replaced it with something mysterious inventive and adventurous like old times the whole album is actually one song as I understand it. While it is unmistakeably the flower kings they have gone out on a limb to juice it up, te guitars sound more raw the keyboards sound more ugly and the drums are more aggressive and the bass is less widdly and more basic the vocals are performed as always with great theater and the whole album is just brilliant. I can't wait to hear what else they come up with for the next album until then this new album will sit happil with the rest of their Exemplary discography
5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great album. Searing melodies and heartfelt lyrics,

4.0 out of 5 stars Quite a superb album.,
Nicholas Green (London, England, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Desolation Rose (Audio CD)
My friend got me into this band after bugging me for ages and I finally got 'Banks of Eden' really enjoying that album but feeling that I haven't enough knowledge of The Flower Kings to really offer my two pence. Just as a side note: 'Banks of Eden' was my first (and not last) The Flower Kings album. My friend, needless to add, was thrilled - although I would say nonchalantly that it's a win-win situation.
Buying this album I knew what to expect the second time around; more prog, please! And even though I can't do into much detail about the songs themselves I wouldn't think anyone would need to as the music speaks for itself and - well - I've only had the album for a few days. I just wanted to show my love for an amazing album and an amazing band.
"Tower One" starts this album off brilliantly. No long and winding intro as you'd normally expect in a 13-minute opening song but it just cuts straight it with a simple drum rhythm, with soft and caressing vocals. The thing I love about TFK is their accessibility and musical know-how to write a damn good tune.
From there is where I fell in love with this album. So do yourself a favour and check this out.

2.0 out of 5 stars A step back in the good direction but still far to go,
M. De Schryver - See all my reviews
This review is from: Desolation Rose (Audio CD)
This is the first Flowerkings album in more than 10 years that almost sounds like something worth listening to. It is far from good, but they're on the right track. (I hope)
For me all albums up to and including Rainmaker were brilliant... Classic prog rock at its best. Then the band started working on all kinds of side projects and I can only guess that their inspiration was spread so thin that they finally burned out. It also became visible within the side projects themselves after a few albums... Karmakanic made 3 great albums. Transatlantic made one great (the first). Thomas Bodin has made a number of great solo albums but the last in his trilogy series was although not bad not what I would have expected. I sounded more like a rock record than a prog rock keyboard palyers solo album,
As mentioned above, The Flowerkings music as been inspirationless, empty and lets face it,... Totaly boring... Compare the last ten years with the fantastics tracks on Space Revolver, Flower Power, Stardust, Metropolis,.... Most tracks were real gems full of substance and inspiration. Don't get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for all band members... Fantastic musicians... But we all can run out of ideas... Hopefully this album sounds in a new era and get them back on track to things like the earlier albums. Good luck guys..

Springfield, FL--- To say the least the Rutherford Rams coming off a rather good business trip to Atlanta over the weekend.
Coach Ross and his Rams winning both games they played as part of the inaugural Florida-Georgia Shootout.
The Rams winning a game Friday against Luella 58-53. that's on the south side of Atlanta and followed that up with a narrow 54-53 win over Tri-Cities, another Atlanta school.
Both those teams with some size, and coach Rhondie Ross telling me he's proud of the way his guys handled those games. He says they showed a lot of poise, trailing at the half in both games, came back and rallied to win.
His aim was to take the team on the road and get it used to playing teams with a bit more size and skill than what they might see playing teams locally. As well as teams that play a different brand of basketball than teams around here.
Before the trip, the Rams a perfect 8 and oh with wins over the likes of Mosley, Arnold, Dothan, West Florida and Niceville.
Now 10-0, the Rams will now set their sights a trip to Gulf Breeze Tuesday for another district game and then they'll play at the tournament at Grand Ridge Saturday.
Next week they travel to the Kingdom of the Sun, a very prestigious tournament in Ocala.

SALT LAKE CITY—DoubleTree by Hilton today opened the DoubleTree by Hilton Salt Lake City Airport, a modern, lakeside hotel located two miles from Salt Lake City International Airport.
The 288-room hotel opens following a $5.3-million property-wide renovation to update guestrooms and public spaces with new furnishings and design throughout. Formerly the Hilton Salt Lake City Airport, the hotel remains part of the Hilton Worldwide portfolio under the leadership of new owner and operator, Aimbridge Hospitality.
"The reflagging to a DoubleTree by Hilton signals both leisure and business travelers that they will enjoy special comforts and acts of kindness that align perfectly with this relaxed lakeside location," stated John Greenleaf, global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. "The DoubleTree by Hilton brand is well-known for its caring culture and the genuine warmth of our associates will resonate with our guests and be evident throughout the property, from guestrooms to meeting space."

For the past few years, the talk of The Lodging Conference in Phoenix had been focused on the economic recovery, solid industry projections and "cautious optimism." With the word cautious no longer necessary, the economic outlook took a backseat this year to the seemingly unending parade of new lifestyle brands.

This is by far, the best quality camera I have ever used. I operate about 100 security cameras, and was so impressed with this one camera, that I had to buy a few more, and plan on buying even more. I was very impressed with this cameras ability to see in the dark (in color) without the need for infra-red illumination. For those that need a camera that wish to view an area that Infra-red cannot illuminate, I HIGHLY reccomend this camera. It can be ordered with different lens configurations as well. Good Luck!

While larger home improvement projects are often necessary to catch the eye of someone in the market for a new home, they require a great deal of time and money.

Some 40 Realtors from the three RE/MAX sales offices in Manteca, Ripon and Modesto took part in a Wednesday morning brunch and awards ceremony at the Spring Creek Country Club.
Bored with your bath? While remodeling high-profile items, such as flooring, a vanity and the tub/shower, will make a big visual update ... these projects also come with a hefty budget. And, if you're like most homeowners, you may not have the time, knowledge or budget for a major overhaul.
In Asian culture, 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit. You wouldn't know it given current events, but traditionally, years hallmarked by the animal are quiet and serene.
There's a lot to like about clematis, one of the earliest vines to green up in the spring. It's easy to grow, blooms in profusion and is hardy, with some varieties lasting over 50 years.
Renters that have the desire and wherewithal to buy but are waiting for either lower prices or lower loan rates should consider this a warning.
It's been a long, hard winter in much of the country. Towering snowdrifts, icy roads, freak hailstorms. For many of us, spring can't come fast enough, and with it the chance to enjoy our porches, patios and sunrooms.
An expansive garden with a Japanese theme and a garden that illustrates how green thumbs with physical limitations can still enjoy their hobby are two of the six that are being featured in the 2011 Manteca Garden Tour.

Like freshly washed laundry dancing on the line on a sunny day, this season's white decor is a welcome sight. Just when we're ready to fling open the windows, shake out rugs and scrub the memory of winter away, stores are responding by stocking tabletop accessories, throw pillows, furniture and more in crisp whites and soothing creams.
These days, hybrids are either panned or praised in the world of gardening. Not that hybrids are such oddities. A hybrid is merely the offspring of two parents that are not genetically the same.
More than 41 million Americans planted vegetable gardens in 2009 - a number expected to increase as food costs climb, according to a recent Gardening Trends Research Report. When you factor in flowers, herbs and fruits, it's difficult to find a home where people are not working the soil on a warm sunny day.
The kitchen is the heart of the home: a place to cook and share a meal, to entertain friends, gather as a family and even pay bills or do homework.
Van Daele Homes' Waterpointe community at River Island showcases a rare and popular offering – a floorplan that lives like a single level home with the added benefit of a second story providing extra space. The Residence 1 is one of three spacious, distinctive and flexible plans at Waterpointe where homes currently available for purchase are situated on average 10,000 square foot homesites and are priced from the low $400,000's.
NEW YORK (AP) - A sudden plunge in mortgage rates last week raised an urgent question for millions of Americans:
As the temperature drops, your lawn and garden will start settling into a dormant state. As you prep your landscaping and garden for a winter's slumber, it's a good idea to review the tools you used all summer. Taking care of this task now will ensure they're in good shape come spring when it's time to use them again.
The leaves and the weather don't need to be the only things to change this season. As the cooler temperatures send you indoors, start adding home improvement projects to your to-do list.
WASHINGTON (AP) - With mortgage rates sliding for a fifth straight week, the possibility of locking in a rate below 4 percent is tempting for consumers and could unleash a wave of refinancing. It may even convince some Americans to buy their first home.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Man's best friend is taking a bite out of renters' wallets.
As the weather cools down, people are preparing for cozy nights indoors. Perhaps nowhere is the desire for warm, comfortable living spaces more important than the bedroom. Fortunately, it only takes a few simple tricks to warm up any bedroom in just one weekend.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. homes sold in September at their fastest clip this year, a sign that the housing market is shaking off a slowdown that began in the middle of 2013.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. sales of new homes were nearly flat in September, after the government sharply revised downward what was initially an August surge in buying.
How much do you spend on utilities? Are you looking for ways to save? A typical American household spends about $2,100 on energy bills each year, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Most of that expense comes from a home's energy use during the winter heating season. But a quick home checkup can help you can reduce these costs, prepare for winter and enjoy energy savings.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Average U.S. mortgage rates tumbled this week. The 30-year loan hit its lowest level since June 2013 as Treasury bond yields marked new lows amid concern over global economic weakness.
Halloween has its fair share of iconic symbols: ghosts, witches, mummies and pumpkins, just to name a few. But if your home decor is becoming just as iconic, it may be time to change it up and take your decorating in a new direction.
SAN DIEGO (AP) - California home sales rose for the first time in a year in September, a research firm said Tuesday, as cooling prices and a strong economy encouraged buyers.
Homeowners have spent more on kitchen remodeling than any other home improvement category in the last 10 years, according to Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies - and there's good reason. An updated kitchen does more than boost the value of your home; whether you make just a few changes or completely renovate the entire space, a kitchen that feels new is always refreshing. From basic cooking to frequent entertaining, your dream kitchen should look good and function well.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Construction firms broke ground on more apartment complexes in September, pushing up the pace of U.S. homebuilding.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
In conversation with Gilles Paquin
Gilles Paquin hasn't just been in the arts and entertainment business for the past four decades -- the business is in his blood.
As the veteran manager and founder/CEO of Paquin Entertainment Group -- a full-service, Winnipeg- and Toronto-based entertainment company with four divisions: Artist Management, Artists Agency, Theatre & Film and Corporate Services -- Paquin helps artists build viable careers and realize their potential. For him, management is a calling.
Paquin, 61, began his career in the mid-1970s as a television director and producer at the CBC. He went on to become a successful concert/live-event promoter and producer, working with the likes of Billy Joel, Muddy Waters, David Bowie, Neil Young, Bill Cosby, Metallica, The Police, Alabama, Jim Carrey, Jay Leno and Tina Turner.
In 1985, Paquin founded Paquin Entertainment Group. His vision: an entertainment company that respected the creative process. His business model expanded to include the Artists Agency -- which today represents over 150 artists, including Tegan and Sara, Serena Ryder, K'Naan and more -- and Koba Entertainment, Paquin's family entertainment division, which has been mounting large-scale touring shows such as The Backyardigans, Toopy and Binoo and more since 2004. Paquin personally manages Randy Bachman, Bachman & Turner, Buffy Sainte-Marie and Del Barber.
Artistic passion is a Paquin family value -- Gilles is married to Koba's artistic director, Patti Caplette. His son, Julien Paquin, is president of the artists agency, while his other son, Justin Paquin, is a project manager of business development. His daughter, Tarina Paquin, is a professional dancer.
Nearly 30 years later, Paquin Entertainment Group is now roundly regarded as one of Canada's foremost entertainment agencies. On May 8, Gilles will be fêted with a Music Managers Forum Honour Roll Award at Canadian Music Week in Toronto. Free Press music writer Jen Zoratti sat down with him for a conversation about what makes an honour-roll-worthy manager.
FP: What does this award mean to you?
GP: When I got the announcement, I was surprised, actually. I've never felt completely in the music community in Canada sometimes, and that's more my own insecurity, if you will. When I started (managing), my focus was always more the south, the U.S. I really started dealing more in Los Angeles and Nashville and New York. I always felt a slight prejudice towards Toronto -- a prejudice which was probably broken years ago, but you hold onto things for a long time. I'm the first Winnipegger to receive this award; usually, people are from Vancouver or Toronto. I was happy and surprised.
FP: Let's talk about the beginnings of Paquin. What made you want to transition out of a promoter role and into a management role?
GP: My sense of representing artists and taking care of them was a strong, strong drive. There was no mentorship, there was no Manitoba Film and Music. So in those days, I was trying to figure out the definitions of what I was even doing. What's a manager? What's a promoter? What's an agent? What's a publicist? The artists I was representing weren't being fulfilled by the agencies that were around at the time. I was learning from my relationships in L.A., where the agencies were more evolved, and I feel like that wasn't happening in Canada yet. So I started an agency to help my artists.
FP: What qualities make for a good manager?
GP: Good question. First of all, you have to be able to tell who a good artist is. It doesn't matter what level that artist is at in their career, you have to be able to go, 'That artist is an artist I can manage and take to the next level.' Artists need managers to grow. And a manager has to be able to know what artists have the potential to grow. You have to be able to listen to the artist -- and truly listen. You've got to have taste, and I'm not saying that idly. What you're doing is you're trying to get your artist to the world. And a manager needs to love artists.
FP: And your success depends on each other.
GP: Ultimately, I think that the welfare of the artist is absolutely crucial and, as a manager, I have to make it my No. 1 priority. When I see artists out there like Justin Bieber -- I wouldn't manage an artist at 15 or 16. I just wouldn't do it. That is morally reprehensible to me, to do that to a young kid. I don't care how big you become. When I'm taking to an artist, the fact that they're a great performer or a great songwriter is hugely important -- but if they don't like touring, if they don't like to be away from the family, I'm out the door. The greatest hardship in this business is travelling. Some people can do it and some people can't. You're also dealing with all these decisions that artists don't talk about -- decisions of alcohol, drugs, lack of sleep, too much travelling. That is what makes or breaks careers. That becomes a crucial part of my everyday life. I need to decide, "How far do I push? And how far do I get pushed back."

A Win For The West's Wild Horses
The re-opening of equine slaughterhouses is temporarily halted, for now.
Byon November 5, 2013
In a win for America's wild horses and their supporters, a federal appeals court temporarily halted plans by companies in New Mexico and Missouri to re-open equine slaughterhouses yesterday.
Things were looking bleak for horse advocates last Friday, when federal judge in Albuquerque dismissed a lawsuit by The Humane Society alleging that the U.S. Department of Agriculture had failed to conduct proper environmental studies when it issued permit to the slaughterhouses.
The Human Society filed an immediate appeal and won an emergency injunction.
"We've got a chance now," said horse advocate Leland Grass, who opposes horse roundups in his home Navajo Nation, where they have been going on since last July.
Yesterday's decision is important, Grass says, because if slaughterhouses are shuttered, it " will open the door for Congress to approve the SAFE Act. If they remain open, it probably won't go our way."
Grass and his group Nohooká Diné have sent a resolution to legislators in Washington, DC urging them to pass the Safeguard American Food Exports (SAFE) Act, currently pending before Congress. Grass said a national bill is critical to ensure there is no incentive for horses to be taken from Navajo land or elsewhere for slaughter.
America is on the verge of a wild horse overpopulation crisis, according to the Feds, which say roughly 33,000 roam freely on public lands and more on tribal lands, trampling over fragile ecosystems, overgrazing, and often dying of thirst in the drought-prone, arid West.
In September, I traveled to the Navajo Nation and witnessed horse roundups firsthand. Erny Zah, communications director for the Navajo Nation, said, "We don't want to send horses to their demise. We're just doing what we can with our limited resources to protect our land." He said that without operational equine slaughterhouses, horses can still be sold, but they don't fetch "as high a price."
But critics of horse slaughter contend it is a profit-driven enterprise driven by business interests such as cattle ranching and extractive industries that want to clear land for development. Eliminating slaughterhouses removes the market and thus, the profit incentive.
The Obama administration has included a proposal in its 2014 budget that would effectively ban the slaughter of horses for human consumption by preventing money from being spent on inspection of slaughtering facilities.

When considering the advice of experts, ensure that it takes into account your company's - and customers' - needs.
The world of e-mail marketing is a crazy place. If you are a consultant or an industry "expert" you have a tremendous number of great ideas that sound very compelling. However, as a marketer, determining which of those ideas will work for your brand can often be the biggest challenge of all.
For those of you who read my last column, "Getting Real About Results," you might remember that I have engaged the services of a company called Alchemy Worx to employ some out-of-the-box thinking for the e-mail programs I run with my digital magazine. Since then, they have been able to design and deploy a number of tests. Some have proven wildly successful, others not so much.
In the first example, we redesigned our weekly reader communication. We added animated gifs to share the excitement of the interactivity inside the digital magazine.
The next example represents a new e-mail that was developed to drive anticipation and excitement for an upcoming issue.
I have been pre-releasing many of the efforts we are testing to a group of industry experts for comment. Do these experts think these test recommendations will enhance results? Check out the results to see what happened.
|Test Type
|Industry Expert Opinions
|In-Market Results

|Weekends don't work well
|Engaged 5% of prior non-responders
|Coming soon e-mail
|Build loyalty
|Could work, but generally a waste
|2x opens of any other e-mail
Even I was a bit skeptical about a few of these at first, but wanted to see what would happen, as all of these suggestions came from a review of the data and prior results. While I was happy to see such strong short-term growth to what we were doing, this effort made me wonder how much of what we talk about in marketing columns should be applied on a general basis. What if the messenger's message doesn't make sense for your company or brand?
After thinking about it for a bit, I realized that often times industry experts are privy to state-of-the-art technologies and tactics. Some of the more simple best practices seem like they are a bit boring or old school. When was the last time you read an article about the length of your subject line compared to e-mail integrating with social media? Yet, as we innovate, we also must remember to respect the foundational elements that have built this industry into one of the most successful revenue generating industries ever.
The take away from this is simple but important. Don't ignore what you hear at conferences or read in articles. And don't discount what the experts say. Do listen to it carefully and determine exactly how what you are hearing can be personalized so it has the best impact on your efforts. But above all, make sure that your first focus is on ensuring your core/cornerstone efforts are valid and in place. Question everything you have done to this point and revisit each step beginning with some of the items listed above. You may just be surprised at the results.

Complaint letters and product coupons [split from: Coupons: Good or Bad?]

When I purchase some food product from a national brand and it is really bad, if I'm not returning to the store I mail the label to the manufacturer with a complaint letter and they send me coupons for any of their other products, that have no expiration date, for the amount of my original purchase. Plus they get feedback that they need to improve that product - everybody wins!
Now we're getting off topic, but I did do that with something once. They sent me coupons for an identical product I actually preferred (it was made by the same company). Why didn't the crappy brand I got taste as good? Who knows?
I once opened a can of tomatos only to find that it was only half full and spoiled. I took it back to the store and was given a refund. A week later the company that made the tomatos sent me 6 coupons for the product, the store had passed along my complaint.
re: Dommy
I do this all the time. Last week, I got a 20 oz bottle of flat diet coke. I contacted coke to let them know, gave them the number off the bottle, etc. They emailed me, called me and sent me two letters with free coupons.
I've done it with other companies as well when things haven't been right. Most of them are grateful for the feedback and with competition being so fierce, they want to keep my loyalty to their product.
re: monkeyrotica
Nope, because I think most chains are independently owned or customer complaints get counted against the manager come 'bonus' time (my friend WAS married to a Walmart store manager and corporate reviewed him on EVERYTHING...) I get most of my statisfaction going DIRECTLY to the parent company (calling versus a letter) or posting on eopionions.com
re: monkeyrotica
Someone reads it, but don't expect a personal response from a big chain. Usually the information from those is lumped all together and presented as "83.7% of guests feel that the service is excellent..."
re: monkeyrotica
No for serveral reasons. One because it's usually the server that "reads" them and winnows away the really bad ones. Two because most are turned in without any information on them beyond the "I hated this meal." Three because nothing was said by the customer at the time, or when they left, and there's no way of confirming the disaster beyond the card.
This works when you LIKE a product, too.
I think they are tickled to get to talk to you in person and do a PR dance on you.
So now if I find a product I really like at a chain grocer, I call the 800# and tell them--I usually get a couple coupons for the product as a result.
When I was in college a roommate and I sent fan mail to a certain herbal tea company, telling them how much we liked their tea and that we had discovered that mixing one of their teas with honey and milk made it taste just like a ginger snap cookie. It was a blantant bid for coupons, but they apparently liked hearing from us, because they sent us quite a pile of coupons and little packets of new tea flavors.
