Symantec Rebates - "Your rebate request did not pass our audit process"Hello all,
I recently received invalid notifications on 3 Symantec rebates (more should be coming) all giving the reason "Your rebate request did not pass our audit process". I'm assuming this is 1 product per year thing that McAfee does (or did?) but it says this nowhere in any of the fine print on any of these Symantec rebates. I've contacted parago about this and I waiting for a response but I thought I would start this thread cause I'm sure other people will be in this same boat. If anyone else has any experience with this "invalid reason" or is in this same boat with Symantec, post you experience.
The offers I'm officially having this problem with are:
P.S. first post so go easy on me
I think fun is over for me.
I just got my first rejected rebate with that same audit message. My eyes popped open. They're following in footsteps of McAfee. Looks like no more purchasing Norton...
Similar thing happened with Kaspersky. I don't think they state the limit 1 per year term on their rebates. A couple of my submissions never made it into the system so they asked me to fax in my photocopies. I didn't hear back from them for many weeks. Finally I called in and they said they're auditing due to the number of submissions. So it sounds like I won't be getting those rebates back. They're starting to look at the number of submissions you have and assume you're reselling based on that so they reject the rebates. I think that's wrong though because they can't assume that. I just love to buy free after rebate stuff to pass out to friends and families. But if they won't send the money back, I don't know what we can do...

I am glad that I don't have any Symantec rebate pending. My last one came in a week ago for the NIS/NG/NSW combo pack. I usually do 2 N360 and 2 NIS rebates per year. I guess now I need to track my rebate history better. Anyway, I still have 4 unopen NIS (3U) license and 3 N360 (3U) license that would last a few years.
Looks like another one of my pending rebates fell into this "audit" and I still have another two pending. I'm gonna go contact them in a few minutes but it that doesn't work, we should try to contact the retailers. It is in their best interest to keep us happy and could apply some pressure.
If we meet the rebate requirements, we should get the rebate back, plain and simple.
I don't think people got paid for their McAfee rebates
When I see this, I just cross my fingers to get the pending ones they approved earlier and tell myself to not buy their products again
I already contacted them this morning, and they were not at all helpful. They told me they didn't know why symantec invalidated it and they would send it for review which would take 7-10 business days. I have my Norton antivirus which just came in the mail from frys and I am trying to decide if I should just send it back or do the rebate anyway, hoping all this will be resolved. This is such a disappointment to me because symantec rebates were always so easy, and quick to get back, with usually only a 3-4 week turn around. Blurg!
Is everyone who is getting rejected buy the triple bundle in December and or Thanksgiving as well? Did anybody get rejected that didn't buy them earlier? If everyone is getting rejected for this rebate, then I feel that there may be a glitch and I would be more hopeful. If only the people who already bought is in December and or Thanksgiving are getting rejected, then it doesn't look so good. I bought them all three times, as well as all their other software that was free after rebate.
For those of you guys posting Invalid rebate status, can you list the rebate # and store as well as product name NIS, Norton 360 and so forth?

There's a place nearby where worries are eased, fears are calmed, and families are cared and provided for free of charge.
The Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte opened in 2011 and provides housing and support to families with sick children in the hospital. So far, 5,000 people have stayed in the house. The first Ronald McDonald House was built in Philadelphia in 1974, and now 300 houses exist worldwide, including five in North Carolina.
Charlotte's 3,500-square-foot building features a living room, play room and outside playground, kitchen with four of every appliance, laundry room, media room, teen room, library and 28 bedrooms. The land for the house was a gift from Carolinas Medical Center, and most of the furniture was donated by Lazy Boy.
"We are a distraction. That's our mission," said Jenna Westbrook, RMH of Charlotte development and communications director. "We serve the families so they can serve the children. … They don't have to worry about anything now except their sick child."
The families
The Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte gives families living outside of Mecklenberg County a place to live while their child receives treatment through Levine Children's Hospital, Hemby Children's Hospital, area doctors' offices or specialists. The families must be referred to RMH through a hospital or medical center, and there is no income restriction. They can stay until their child is released from the hospital, Westbrook said.
Both area and international families come to RMH. Many have premature babies in the hospital, which means family members often remain at the house three to five months until their little one is strong enough to go home.
"A lot of times, families come to us in crisis. A lot of families come here literally with the clothes on their backs," Westbrook said.
Many people must go straight to the hospital and don't have time to stop at home first, and the RMH works to provide them with necessary supplies, such as toiletry kits and changes of clothes. A pantry is filled with foods that families can help themselves to.
Since 2011, 40 families from Gaston County have made this house their home away from home. Gaudy Guerrero's family, from Gastonia, is one of them.
Guerrero lived at RMH for almost three months starting May 27, while her newborn, Alvert Angel, was in the hospital. Her husband, Fausto Liriano, and 12-year-old stepson, Lewis, also stayed there. Alvert was born early at 26 weeks and was finally released from the hospital on Aug. 24.
Guerrero had to be at her U.S. Airways job at 5:15 a.m., and her temporary home allowed her to go straight to the hospital after work to be with her son and then on to RMH to rest before doing it all over again the next day. Guerrero said she is thankful she didn't have to drive back and forth from Gastonia every day.
"They've been angels to us," Guerrero said. "I couldn't believe that they still have people in a place like this, where they're here to help you, night and day, 24/7."
The organization gave her more than just a room and food, Guerrero said. The staff and volunteers were always trying to do things to brighten her day, and a counselor on site was available to lend an ear.
Guerrero said she met a lot of people and was able to connect with other moms during her time at the house.
"They all have that common denominator," Westbrook said. "They have a sick child. A lot of our families make lasting friendships here."
And Westbrook said a lot of families keep in touch with Ronald McDonald House after they leave and send updates on their children.
The volunteers
The Charlotte house sees 6,800 volunteers in one year, and most of these are from surrounding counties, Westbrook said. Currently, there are33 volunteers from Gaston County.
The trained volunteers clean, check families in and out, answer phones, greet visitors and help with movie nights, bingo nights and special events. They also make baked goods as well as cook dinner for the families every night and eat with them.
Westbrook said these helpers keep the operational costs of the Ronald McDonald House to a minimum and allow the organization to run on a small staff.
"The volunteers really do run the day-to-day operations of the house," she said.
Carrie Cate, from Mount Holly, has been volunteering for two years. She said it has been a wonderful experience, and it also has served as a reality check.
"It takes you out of yourself, and it reminds you what's really important in life," she said.
Some of Cate's tasks have included arranging flowers, baking cookies and brownies, making crafts, restocking closets, giving tours, taking donations, cleaning, doing laundry and talking with families.
"It really is humbling. Sometimes all they need is a hug," Cate said. "The families we encounter, they're going through probably one of the most trying times in their life. It's a safe haven, a relief."
Some of the former RMH families have even come back to volunteer their time.
"I can't wait for my baby to be 100 percent OK (so I can volunteer)," Gerrero said. "I need to give them back somehow what they have given us."

Weird Tungsten E2 problem - won't turn off.
by dahewitt555 - 1/4/07 4:01 PM
I've had my Tungsten E2 about a year. It hotsyncs fine, accepts data and displays data fine. I didn't add any software recently (there is 3rd party software but it's over 6 months old). I didn't even drop it. But, starting 2 days ago it won't stay powered off. After I switch it off, after 10 seconds it's back on again! It does this with or without the power cable. Without the power cable plugged in it powers down in a day. And it won't do a hard reset. I ran antivirus software on my PC but it says it's clean. The Palm website doesn't say anything about power staying ON. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Pension officials plan Waikiki trip
Story by
Jennifer Gollan
San Diego County's pension system is one of four across the state planning for officials to attend a May conference in Hawaii.
Some other agencies are skipping the Waikiki conference over appearances, although the conference's website does offer a "2013 Attendance Justification Tool Kit" with "7 Tips for Building Your Case for Attending the Annual Conference."
Four of the state's 24 largest independent municipal retirement systems intend to send up to five board members each, a survey by California Watch found. The others attending are the counties of Contra Costa and Los Angeles and the city of Los Angeles.
Combined, the agencies are $17.5 billion short of the funds needed to pay long-term pension obligations, according to figures provided by the plans.
William Raggio, interim general manager of the independent Los Angeles Fire and Police Pensions, declined to send representatives to the National Conference on Public Employee Retirement Systems.
"I don't plan on approving anyone to attend this conference given its location," Raggio said in an email to his staff. "Hawaii is just not the right message to send at this time."
Conference organizers expect about 1,000 trustees, money managers and consultants from across the nation to attend the conference at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort from May 19 to 23.
The San Diego County Employees Retirement Association estimates it will spend $7,950 to send three trustees: board Chairman David Myers, Vice Chairman E.F. "Skip" Murphy and alternate board member Tim Hancock. That includes airfare, conference registration and a five- or six-night stay at the resort.
Calls to Myers, Murphy and Hancock were referred to Brian White, the plan's chief executive.
Through a spokesman, White issued a statement that said, "California state law requires board members to fulfill an education requirement. SDCERA assists board members in fulfilling this requirement to educate and continuously improve the knowledge and understanding of complex topics and trends involving the governance of a public pension fund. Educational seminars typically cover critical topics such as legal requirements, investing, and trustee ethics."
He noted that the location was selected by conference officials, not SDCERA.
New training requirements went into effect in January. Under a law amended by the state Legislature last year, boards overseeing pension systems in 20 California counties must ensure board members receive 24 hours of education every two years.
Some pension plans encourage their trustees to attend seminars in state.
"We want to save money," said Greg Frank, a management analyst for the San Joaquin County Employees' Retirement Association. "We give the trustees classes to attend that are local, in places like Berkeley. It's real easy to keep it in California and keep costs down."
The bill's author, Assemblyman Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont, said he does not believe pension board members – or, for that matter, groups of trustees – need to travel to resort locations for training.
While the Hawaii conference would fulfill the requirements, so do programs set up through accredited academic institutions in California. Educational conferences scheduled over the next two years include those in Napa, Indian Wells, Sacramento and Monterey.

DEEP RUN—Landon Letchworth and Luke Jackson are used to being joined at the hip.
Besides being teammates on the first-place North Lenoir baseball team and good friends off the field, the pair is linked in several other ways.
Letchworth is the Hawks' ace left-handed pitcher, Jackson is his battery mate behind the plate. Jackson bats leadoff and Letchworth follows behind in the two hole.
On Friday night, the terrific twosome struck again to keep the Hawks alone at the top of the Eastern Carolina 2A Conference standings.
In NL's 2-0 victory over rival South Lenoir, Letchworth completely dominated the home team, allowing just two hits with five strikeouts. Only one Blue Devils hitter, Justin Howard, managed to get the ball out of the infield, on a seventh-inning flare that dropped into shallow left-center for a hit.
For his part, Jackson collected two of NL's three hits, scored one run and drove in another. He also survived a home plate collision while making a nifty tag to deny the Devils' their best scoring opportunity.
"We knew this was a big game, so we came in really focused," said Jackson, a junior. "It's always good to beat South Lenoir, and the fact that it kept us in first place made it even better."
Jackson broke up Howard's perfect game with a swinging bunt that ended up as a base hit leading off the fourth.
A Letchworth sacrifice and a pair of SL errors brought Jackson around to score.
In the fifth, Jackson beat out a chopper to third that scored Daron Gray with the game's final run.
Jackson also leaped high to bring down a throw from Gray in left as SL's Austin Deaver attempted to score from second.
Jackson and Deaver collided in front of home plate, and Jackson held on to record the out in the bang-bang play.
"He hit me in the right leg," Jackson said after the game. "It's a little sore but it's okay. Daron made a great throw."
Letchworth, meanwhile, surrendered a first-inning infield hit to Garrett Tyndall and then Howard's Texas Leaguer in the final frame. The senior southpaw credited his defense for the solid outing.
"We caught almost everything they hit and even turned a couple of double plays," Letchworth said. "I was able to throw strikes and the defense was outstanding."
SL's Howard was every bit as good, giving up three hits and one earned run to go along with seven whiffs.
"Justin did everything we asked," SL coach David Combs said. "He had a great Senior Night and left everything he had out there on the field. He deserved better."
SL (12-6, 5-3 EC2A) wraps end the regular season this week with road trips to Greene Central (Tuesday) and Kinston (Thursday).
The Hawks (13-5, 6-1 EC2A) finish with a home game Monday against Greene Central, a road trip the next day to Goldsboro and a Senior Night finale Thursday with second-place Ayden-Grifton.
"We're in the driver's seat, but we don't have any margin of error," NL coach Donnell Garris said. "We have to keep doing what we've been doing all season, winning with pitching and good defense."

The education I received provided me with a strong foundation of high-quality care upon which I continue to build. An important part of that care includes communicating effectively with my patients in order to educate them about their individual condition and treatment options, thereby empowering them to make informed decisions. Patients often worry that seeing an orthopedic surgeon means they will have surgery. In reality, less than 10% of my patients ever require surgery. With the help of my certified physician assistant, Jeffery Fernandez, PA-C, I am able to help the great majority of our patients with a multitude of nonsurgical treatment options. Simply put, I am a very conservative surgeon and I only use surgery as a last resort. When I meet with colleages in my field, we constantly brainstorm developing the latest, most effective treatment techniques. Especially intriguing to me are the incredible advances we continue to make in the area of technology, which enable me to do operations in a less invasive manner.Medical School

Motorex White Grease Lube
|(0 Reviews)
Store PriceBuy Now
Product DescriptionThe grease they sell at the local hardware superstore is designed for automobiles -- not your new sub-15-pound, carbon fiber masterpiece. Possessing outstanding wear-reducing properties and developed so that it doesn't seize at low temperatures, Motorex White Grease is a lithium-based white grease designed especially for bicycles (it works best on slide bearings and bottom brackets). When it comes to greasing your bike, here's a good rule of thumb: every time you loosen something with threads, clean it, grease it, and tighten it to torque. Pedals and quick release skewers are good places to start, then stem and handlebar bolts, and finally, your crankset and bottom bracket. Regular greasing and proper torque settings will protect your bike and its components against undue wear while fending-off the dreaded creaks and pops we all hate to hear.Motorex White Grease comes in a 100g tube and should last several months if used regularly and appropriately.Please Note: Per UPS regulations, ORM-D items such as this must ship via surface transport: UPS Ground or UPS Standard (Canada). We are unable to ship ORM-D items Internationally, or to Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico.

They turned out perfect!! We got tons of great feedback on them.
Great Quality, Great Price
I chose this design because it was simple and modern but just elegant enough for a save the date. I was very impressed with the level of customer service and the quickness of the employees at magnet street. One of our colors wasn't visible so the design consultant fixed it but she didn't only fix the text she also fixed the coordinating colors so there weren't multiple shades of wine on the magnet. I absolutely love these magnets and my Mother and Future Mother In-law both adored them as well. They are the perfect size and will not take over your guests fridge. I only have one complaint. I ordered 275 of them and only received 274 :(
Loved them!!!
They are wonderful magnets for the price!! I loved them and so did all of my family and friends! I would highly recommend them!
Fantastic Results
I'm so impressed with the outcome of our save the date magnets. The product and even the packaging they used turned out beautifully.

Arizona Cardinals
Patrick Peterson focused on defense doing its job
The Arizona Cardinals return to the drawing board this week after suffering their seventh straight loss this season, and for the most part it wasn't because of poor play by the defense.
On Sunday Arizona's defense held the Rams' offense to just 17 points in the 31-17 loss, with the other two scores coming from interceptions returned for touchdowns. As tough as it is, the defense continues to focus on getting better and not pointing fingers at the offense.
"Right now I'm on the defensive side of the ball; we're doing what we can do," said Patrick Peterson. "The offense is definitely working to get better and we have to continue pushing those guys to get better."
St. Louis quarterback Sam Bradford completed just eight passes Sunday, but two of them went for touchdowns. The Rams earned only 15 first downs on the afternoon, but turned the ball over just once. At the end of the day, the four interceptions thrown by Arizona quarterback Ryan Lindley were too much to overcome.
You would think the last two losses would be enough for the Cardinals defense to play the blame game, but it's not, according to Peterson.
"At the end of the day we have to keep fighting as a team," he said. "We have to do what we have to do as a defense to put our offense in good field position or even score to put points on the board and just give those guys a little bit more momentum and a little bit more confidence in themselves."
Overall, the Cardinals rank ninth in the league in total defense while allowing 20.6 points per game. They're also fourth in the NFL with 15 interceptions this season.
Some of the defensive players have used the term "frustrating" on more than one occasion the past two weeks, but the overall attitude has still been "team".
Peterson says they are sticking together, at least for now.
"I can't tell you what's going on, on the offensive side of the ball or in the offensive room. The defense is working and we're top ten in almost every category and it's just coming down to guys winning the one-on-one battles. Digging down deep and getting that extra edge to put us over the hump and win that play."
This week they'll be looking for that edge when they travel to New York to play a Jets team that has also struggled this season with a 4-7 record.

There have been plenty of happy endings, however. The ASPCA rescued over 300 pets from flooded conditions and housed over 280 animals displaced by the hurricane. City agencies have helped many of these pets reunite with their concerned owners, but others remain homeless. The ASPCA said that they are still housing over 140 pets at their temporary shelter in Brooklyn, and they are running out of time.
"We are still caring for the displaced pets at our emergency boarding facility, but we're also planning the next step, which is to find homes for unclaimed animals as we start to demobilize our operation," the senior director of ASPCA Field Investigations and Response, Tim Rickey, told Gothamist. "While many pets have been reunited with their families, we still have animals that are waiting to be claimed, and we want to give residents every opportunity to be reunited with their pets. We urge anyone who is missing their pet to visit our emergency shelter as soon as possible or contact the Hurricane Sandy pet hotline."
If the remaining pets are not claimed in the next several days, the ASPCA will begin placing these animals in new homes. If you or some you know is still missing a pet, visit 1508 Herkimer Street in Brooklyn, call the Hurricane Sandy Pet Hotline at 347-537-9935, or check out the Animal Care & Control of NYC's (AC&C's) lost pets website.

This is why my furbaby has a microchip. No, I wouldn't leave her at home if we evacuated for a hurricane (in fact, I've got phone numbers and addresses for 4 pet friendly hotels that are a 2-3 hour drive from here, more than enough distance to evacuate if needed), but if something happened and she got loose and we could not find her, she would basically be able to find us.
There are many reasons why these pets have not been claimed. Not all of them are because the family no longer cares. The family may have died during the storm while the animal either hid or ran off and survived. The family may not have the option of getting their animal back due to their house being destroyed and their living situation not allowing animals. They may feel that they couldn't take care of their animal (because they lost their home, job, etc), and the animal would be better off with a new family. Until you're in that position yourself, don't judge someone.
I have mixed feelings about the separated pets and owners. I have high hopes that the animals and owners will be reunited. However, I hope that the lost pets haven't ended up at the NYC "Animal Care and Control". They murder innocent animals every day and I don't think that there is much being done for anybody to find their owners (or for the lost pets to find a new one). Animals get dumped off daily at the NYC ACC and some end up on the kill list the same day that they arrive. The excuses given are so lame... "don't have time", "doesn't get along with the kids", "stray", "wouldn't leave the turtle alone"...LAME EXCUSES!! People give up their family pet-one that has spent their whole life with them and then, one day they decide that they can't take care of their family member anymore. They are suddenly thrown away without another thought. They are not their by choice, but by bad luck. Why can't High Kill Shelters stop??? They don't even stop for the holidays!!!
It is disgusting how many pit bull type animals that are on the list. Injured cats and dogs, sometimes even week old kittens and young puppies are on the list and only a select few are rescued. I don't know what it will take to have the High Kill Shelters shut down. These animals have so much love to give and are not given the chance to find their furever home.
Mankind is not kind at all. They think that pit bulls are mean, yet they murder innocent animals daily and justify their actions.
Why no cell phone number that collects $1 per call for "Sandy Paws"?
On another note 10,000 shark fins found drying in the sun atop a building in China.
The fishermen cut off the fin and throw the shark back in the ocean to suffer and die.
I hope the owners get their babies back soon! If not, I pray someone takes them and loves them and gives them a wonderful home :)January 04 2013 at 4:25 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down Reply

Read to many articles about the people getting themselves to a shelter or out of town , but left their pets behind again and again and again !
One woman was upset saying when her and her son came back to look for their pet cat in the one story very small home, at first could not find it .
They found the cat alright ,stuck up inside the box spring it had drowned .
Are you kidding me ! They got out and left this poor helpless animal who had nowhere to go ,thought it was hiding but died a horrible death .
There was plenty of warning to plan and get all involved out .
Yes there were those that would not go or believed it was not going to be a bad storm .
Those people and those they involved either had to be rescued or unfortunately died .
People will never learn to be safe rather than sorry .

To give some context, I disagree with almost everything that Sam has to say in his new book.
But on his debate with Craig, I thought that was the best smackdown on Craig ever. Best ever. Best smackdown on God I've seen out of the 4 Horsemen.
Sam appreciates that people's moral sense is the buttress that holds religion in place. We've been attacking God from the wrong angle. It isn't that he doesn't exist, it's that as described, he is the most horrible fictional character ever conceived. Sam hammered mainly on the immorality of God, and the immorality of worshiping him. He did it effectively, ruthlessly, and even brutally. God as Celestial Psychopath. Wonderful.
Attack God as immoral, and you attack the motivation for people believing in him. They always say "Without God, you can't have morality" Sam turned that around, and said "With God, you can't have morality."
Also, I agree with Sam's comments on debate strategy. Craig is a gibberish machine. He can cover the walls in his projectile nonsense faster than you can clean it off. It is a mistake to try. Instead, hammer away on your themes, and make Craig respond to them.
Sam was much better in combating Craig than Hitchens was. Sam knew the relevant fundamental philosophical points, and had well reasoned arguments at all turns. But he stuck primarily to his game plan, instead of trying to refute Craig's nonsense.
I thought Sam embarrassed Craig, as did that gal in the Q&A session, and as Craig did to himself when he refused to respond to that question about homosexuality.

EEAS Building, 9A Rond Point Schuman - 1000 Brussels
The Union for the Mediterranean promotes economic integration and democratic reform across 16 neighbours to the EU's south in North Africa and the Middle East.
Formerly known as the Barcelona Process, cooperation agreements were re-launched in 2008 as the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) .
The re-launch was an opportunity to render relations both more concrete and more visible with the initiation of new regional and sub-regional projects with real relevance for those living in the region. Projects address areas such as economy, environment, energy, health, migration and culture.
Along with the 28 EU member states, 15 Southern Mediterranean, African and Middle Eastern countries are members of the UfM: Albania, Algeria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Mauritania, Monaco, Montenegro, Morocco, Palestine, Syria (suspended), Tunisia and Turkey.
Currently meetings are co-presided over by one Mediterranean and one EU country. As of September 2010, the UfM also has a functional secretariat, based in Barcelona, a Secretary General and six deputy secretary generals.
Following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, governance from the EU side will be rearranged once the EEAS has been established.
The UfM has a number of key initiatives on its agenda:

SEATTLE - All parties have confirmed a deal to sell the Sacramento Kings to a Seattle Group. Statements were released by Kings co-owner Gavin Maloof, Seattle investor Chris Hansen, and the NBA.
On the site SonicsArena.com, Chris Hansen released the following statement:
We are happy to announce that we have entered into a binding agreement with the Maloofs to purchase a controlling interest in the Sacramento Kings NBA franchise. The sale is obviously subject to approval by the NBA Board of Governors, and we look forward to working with the League in the coming months to consummate the transaction.
While we are not at liberty to discuss the terms of the transaction or our plans for the franchise given the confidential nature of the agreement and NBA regulations regarding public comments during a pending transaction, we would just like to extend our sincerest compliments and gratitude toward the Maloof family. Our negotiations with the family were handled with the utmost honor and professionalism and we hope to continue their legacy and be great stewards of this NBA franchise in the coming years and decades.
The Maloof family announced today that an executed purchase and sale agreement has been reached to sell the family s interest in the National Basketball Association (NBA) Sacramento Kings to a group led by investor Chris Hansen. The transaction requires approval by the NBA's Board of Governors and therefore no comments or details regarding the agreement will be released.
We have always appreciated and treasured our ownership of the Kings and have had a great admiration for the fans and our team members. We would also like thank Chris Hansen for his professionalism during our negotiation. Chris will be a great steward for the franchise, said Gavin Maloof, Kings co-owner speaking on behalf of the Maloof family.
On Monday morning, the NBA issued the following statement:
The NBA received an executed Purchase and Sale Agreement for the transfer of a controlling interest in the Sacramento Kings from the Maloof family to an investor group led by Christopher Hansen. The proposed transaction is subject to the approval of the NBA Board of Governors and has been referred to the Board's committee process for review.
The next board meeting is schedule for April 18 and 19.
Chris Hansen s investment group has been negotiating with the Maloof family off and on for several months, and only in the last few weeks did the talks really heat up. The potential $500 million dollar deal would be subject to NBA approval, and would require Hansen to file for relocation by March 1st.
The team would play in Key Arena for at least two years. Hansen needs to have an NBA anchor tenant in place before his group can begin construction on a proposed $490 million dollar arena in Seattle s SoDo neighborhood. Hansen would receive $145 million dollars in public financing if only an NBA team plays there. He would receive $200 million if both an NBA and NHL team play there.
That proposal still faces two lawsuits, and is currently going through a design and environmental review.
The New NBA franchise would be known as the Sonics. The City has not had a professional basketball franchise since 2008, when the then-Sonics moved to Oklahoma City and became the Thunder. That franchise called Seattle home for 41 years.
Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson said late Sunday, in a brief Facebook message, that he would not give up without a fight:
Sacramento has proven that it is a strong NBA market with a fan base that year in and year out has demonstrated a commitment to the Kings by selling out 19 of 27 seasons in a Top 20 market and owning two of the longest sellout streaks in NBA history. When it comes to keeping the team in our community, Sacramento is playing to win. In particular, we have been focused like a laser on identifying an ownership group that will both have the financial resources desired by the NBA and the vision to make the Kings the NBA equivalent of what the Green Bay Packers have been in the NFL.
