What Can Social Media Tell Us About American Society? [INFOGRAPHIC]
America is obsessed with its social media tools — more than half of all Americans have a social networking profile. But what does social media tell us about American society? Is our use of social tools a reflection of our interests and behaviors?
Social media strategy firm Hasai decided to find out. The result is an infographic that draws several conclusions about the nature of the average American: Apparently we Americans have a lot to say (48% of all bloggers are U.S.-based), love talking about television (77% have used social media to share their love of a show) and love video games (10% of all US-based web activity involves video games).
Oh, and apparently North Dakota and New Jersey are among the most social states in the union. Go figure.
Check out the infographic and let us know in the comments what you think social media says about American society.

Transaction Analysis
Soriano Finally Gets Paid
Signed RHP Kyle McClellan to a minor-league deal. [1/14]
McClellan underwent shoulder surgery last July, but he should be ready for spring training. That's good news for the Rangers, who reportedly intend for McClellan, Justin Grimm, Martin Perez, and Robbie Ross to compete for the fifth starter's job. If McClellan fails to win the rotation spot, he could find a home in the Rangers bullpen. Despite an arsenal heavier on depth than power, McClellan's best years came in relief. At one point, he was mentioned alongside Jason Motte as potential heirs to Ryan Franklin's throne. He's never going to close games, yet he could serve as decent bullpen depth.
Re-signed RHP J.J. Putz to a one-year extension worth $7 million. [1/14]
When Putz signed a two-year deal with a club option in December 2010, few expected Arizona to exercise the option. Putz had missed time in 2008-2009 with elbow issues; labeling him an injury risk seemed fair. But the Diamondbacks did exercise that option earlier in the offseason, and now they've gone and tacked another year onto their commitment. It's a merited vote of confidence in Putz. Though he did miss about a month in 2011 due to elbow inflammation, he's remained mostly healthy and productive.
If nothing else, this extension puts the brakes on a potential Putz trade. Not that it seemed likely to begin with, but the Heath Bell acquisition had the opportunity to foster a closer controversy if Putz struggled and Bell returned to form. Arizona has now demonstrated where its loyalties stand.
Signed SS-S Cesar Izturis to a minor-league deal. [1/14]
The tune on Izturis hits the same notes it did years ago: he can field, he can't hit, and he comes cheap. His willingness to ride buses makes him a solid piece of depth for the Reds. Jason Donald figures to serve as Zack Cozart's backup, but Izturis will be around in case of injury or ineffectiveness—at least through May. The new CBA gives players with more than six years of MLB service time signed to minor-league deals two opt-out chances. Teams can either release the player five days before the season starts, or otherwise pay the player a $100,000 retention fee and then grant them a June 1 opt-out clause.
Signed RHP Jeff Karstens to a one-year deal worth $2.5 million. [1/14]
Here's what I wrote when the Pirates non-tendered Karstens in late November:
We live in strange times, times in which the Pirates are non-tendering pitchers with consecutive solid seasons. In truth, Karstens' numbers belie his true ability. His stuff is mediocre, though it does play up because of his control and pitching know-how. He has a checkered injury history that may stem from a closed delivery, causing him to throw across his body and often miss glove-side targets. Karstens has a small margin for error and no ability to grow worthwhile facial hair, but he should be at the back-end of someone's rotation next season.
That someone is the Pirates. You have to wonder if Karstens' shoulder woes scared off potential suitors. Otherwise, signing with the Pirates in mid-January for less money than he made last season is a curious move. Karstens figures to take the fourth or fifth spot in Pittsburgh's rotation, depending on what the Pirates do over the rest of the offseason. He should hit the market again after this offseason, but this time as a regular free agent.
Signed RHP Rafael Soriano to a two-year deal worth $28 million with a vesting option worth an additional $14 million. [1/14]
Here we have the early favorite for transaction of the year.
Opportunity cost is the end-all, be-all of most transactions. By signing Soriano, the Nationals are paying the opportunity cost of $28 million* and their first-round pick, no. 29 overall. Although this could be a poor trade in a vacuum, where the strength and potential staying power of the Nationals roster is ignored, in reality no team is better suited for this deal than Mike Rizzo's bunch. Consider this: The only players guaranteed to become free agents before Soriano—even if his option vests—are Mike Morse, Kurt Suzuki, and Dan Haren. This is a good, controlled roster with some potential star upside remaining, depending on how Bryce Harper develops. We can talk about the impact of losing the draft pick and the pool money on the long-term outlook, but until the Nationals make this an annual occurrence then it's hard to get too worked up about it.
*Jim Bowden reports that some of the money is deferred, bringing the average annual value down to $12 million.
The other big rallying point against signing Soriano is the present strength of the Nationals bullpen. Namely, they have two good-to-great relievers in Drew Storen and Tyler Clippard. If you view this as a reactionary signing to what occurred in the postseason, then rolling your eyes makes sense. Otherwise, viewing the Soriano addition as picking one over the other is a bad analogy. This is more akin to acquiring the best center fielder available and shifting your current center fielder to a corner than it is to acquiring the best center fielder available and shunning your current center fielder—which, by the way, the Nationals did the former by adding Denard Span earlier in the winter. It's not about Soriano versus Storen and Clippard; it's about Soriano versus the random middle reliever he just knocked off the active roster. Besides, Davey Johnson likes having an A and B bullpen to prevent overtaxing his top arms. This addition plays into that strategy.
Comparing the Nationals' Top Three Relievers, 2010-2012 and 2013 Projections
*Soriano's New York-based projection
Here's the forgotten worm in the apple: Storen and Clippard are hardly locks. Storen threw 30 innings last season while Clippard has more than 250 innings since 2010. Soriano is no lock either, but the Nationals have positioned themselves to have at least one or two good relievers, and perhaps three if they all remain hearty and hale. With Soriano in tow, the Nationals can now pace Storen and Clippard without handing high-leverage innings to middle relievers. It's hard to look at this signing and come away thinking the Nationals are worse for the road. Yes, Rizzo is paying a hefty cost, and yes maybe he got played by Scott Boras; or, rather, by Boras getting Nationals owner Ted Lerner involved in negotiations. But the Nationals are an elite team adding one of the best players at his position, and they're doing it without harming the rest of their roster or hamstringing their budget.

I appreciate the context on the Nationals deal, R.J., as I started scratching my head about it as soon as I saw the headline. Put in context, it makes some sort of sense. It made the Nationals better, even if the cost was high. And a better ball-club is the real goal of the winter, right?
Jan 16, 2013 05:36 AM
I think the keys for the Nats were:
Jan 16, 2013 06:18 AM
I have to agree "in context" (which is always the proper way to analyze anything) this is a good deal for the Nationals. The team is loaded with youth under control at every position, so if any team can afford to lose a draft pick, even under these draconian terms where you lose the signing money too, it's this one. Plus, if your first draft pick turned out as well as Soriano, you'd be happy. Lastly
Jan 16, 2013 07:03 AM
Just wanted to point out that last year was Jordan Zimmermann's second season after the Tommy John surgery, and Zimmermann threw 195 2/3 innings and made 32 starts.

Richard Bergstrom
David Schoenfield said there was a tweet that Soriano has the third lowest WHIP among pitchers who threw at least 500 innings since 1920. Not sure if that's true, though I did find Mariano Rivera and Billy Wagner with lower WHIPs.
Jan 16, 2013 08:03 AM
I think Bowden's report, which I assume to be accurate, erases any hedging on the cost aspect of this deal. Essentially, the Nats are paying Soriano $7 million/year in '14 and '15, and then a bit more than $2 million/year from 2018-'25. By then I won't be surprised if $2m is less than 1% of their player payroll.
Jan 16, 2013 08:12 AM
Still not clear who's coming out of the bullpen to face the likes of Freeman, Heyward, Howard, and Utley.
Jan 16, 2013 08:35 AM
Agreed -- this article changed my view of the Soriano signing, but one piece of missing context is the Nationals' decision in December not to re-sign Sean Burnett, saying that he "was not a fit financially." Burnett is a solid lefty reliever (caveat: he recently had a bone spur removed) at a lower price point. How does signing Soriano make more sense for the Nats than re-signing Burnett?
Jan 16, 2013 08:48 AM
Matthew Avery
If the playoffs are where your worries lie, a LOOGY is probably the easiest piece for a contending team to add around the trade deadline. If no internal option distinguishes itself, I don't think the Nats will trouble too hard finding someone come July.

Career OPS+ versus left-handed hitters:
Jan 16, 2013 10:19 AM
Concerning Rafael Soriano, I wonder if anyone is happier than the Yankees? By Soriano/Boras refusing the qualifying offer; New York didn't owe any buy out money, they don't have to pay a ridiculous salary to two closers and they now get Washington's first round 2013 draft pick. Please correct me if I am wrong on any of that.
Jan 16, 2013 09:46 AM
Kevin Ebert
The Yankees don't get the Nationals 1st round pick. They get a compensatory pick after the 1st round. The Nats pick is eliminated from the draft order.
Jan 16, 2013 10:37 AM
What about Soriano's supposed strong preference to be THE closer and not the setup guy? Admittedly, I've never seen him quoted on this and am basing this on what I believe has been reported. If true, will there be a disruption to team love, peace and understanding?
Jan 16, 2013 10:22 AM
Arm Side Run
The best case scenario is that Soriano is worth 2 wins, maybe a little more, over the next two seasons. Even considering the marginal value of wins to a team like Washington, it doesn't seem like $28 million (or $24 million if Bowden is correct) is worth it, especially when you factor in the value of the lost draft pick as well. I get that Soriano is one of the more "reliable" relievers... but he's still a reliever. This wreaks of another Boras swindling
Jan 16, 2013 10:27 AM
This was probably an easy sell. Let's write the scenario, shall we?

Senator Hagel's disclosure forms are now available. Looks like the man is doing well for himself, although his book royalties are, well, a trickle instead of a stream.
The former Republican senator from Nebraska received $100,000 as a professor at Georgetown University, $100,000 in fees for serving on the advisory board of Deutsche Bank, $200,000 for being on the advisory board of Corsair Capital, $200,000 as a director of Zurich Insurance Group and $120,000 as a special adviser to M.I.C. Industries.
He also received $120,000 as senior adviser to the polling firm Gallup, headquartered in Omaha, Neb., his home state. McCarthy Capital, the Omaha firm where Hagel was president before he was elected to the Senate in 1996, also paid him $100,000 in adviser fees over the past year.
Hagel's book has not seen enduring popularity. Royalties for "America: Our Next Chapter," published in 2008, were listed as "None (or less than $201)" in the past year.

|This dissertation contributes to interdisciplinary dialogues connecting history, urban studies/planning, and environmental health. Using evidence gleaned from government transportation agencies such as public works manuscripts, annual reports, master plans, and environmental impact reports, I argue there is a long history of diverse groups and agencies intervening in the urban planning process in order to improve environmental health standards. In fact, the sources reveal that urban planners and individuals within the planning process knew a great deal about the link between transportation and environmental health and implemented an array of measures aimed to protect human health. Sound walls, increased mass transit developments, scaled down transportation projects, off-shore airports, high occupancy lanes, park-and-ride stations, and significantly increased environmental review through compulsory environmental impact reports were only a few of the measures that helped protect environmental health during the construction of Southern California's airports, seaports, and freeways. Although urban planning still created one of the most polluted and congested regions in the U.S., without the significant increase in environmental review from the myriad of individuals, groups, and agencies that make up the urban planning process, environmental health outcomes could have been considerably worse. ❧ This project examines the environmental planning process in order to illuminate how Los Angeles became one of the most saturated and polluted transportation hubs in the United States. Through the lens of history, this dissertation interrogates how, despite the implementation of numerous environmental health standards into the planning process, transportation exhaust accounted for 90% of the region's smog during the 1960s and is still responsible for 94% of the basin's carcinogenic risk. What did urban planners know about the relationship between transportation and environmental health, when did they know it, and what did they do about it? This historical analysis is accomplished through an examination of Southern California's Century 105 and Long Beach 710 Interstate Freeways, Los Angeles International Airport, and the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, essentially employing one chapter for each major mode of 20th Century transportation.

Joe Perry Is Pretty Sure He Partied With Donald Trump in the '70s
By Andrew Magnotta
November 8, 2018
While Aerosmith's Joe Perry isn't sure who his craziest drinking buddy was back in his hard-partying heyday, but one of his more intriguing anecdotes of those days comes from a time he doesn't remember.
"A lot of it's a haze," Perry told Eddie Trunk in a recent sit-down at the Rainbow Bar and Grill in Los Angeles. But thanks to an old photo he recently discovered in Sony Music's archives, Perry thinks he might have imbibed with the President of the United States back in the '70s.
That to the guitarist is crazier than any night out with Steven Tyler.
"I was going through all the stuff, looking for stuff, for content, for certain things, maybe for the ... Vegas show," Perry said. "We were looking at some of the outtakes from some of the parties. I know that Columbia threw a party for us after our first Madison Square Garden sellout. It was a party and Steven is standing there with Linda Blair and I forget who the president of the label was. It was a picture of them. Right off to the side with a beer in his hand, chatting up some young girl was this kind of blond-looking guy with a loose tie, just looking kinda natural. I swear it's Donald Trump."
Perry recalled his shock at finding the photo. But he's certain it's no mere lookalike. Except for Perry's suggestion that Trump was holding a beer (the President says he's never drank alcohol), the story seems plausible.
Trump is a big fan of rock and roll, and his campaign routinely draws the ire of artists for playing their music at events without permission. In fact, Aerosmith is one of several artists who have reported sending Trump cease-and-desist notices for the transgression.
"Looking at everybody in the picture and in the background, I swear [it's him]," Perry continued. "We looked up on the computer pictures of him from that era, you know, like '75, '76, '77, and it looks just like him. I'm just dying to show him that picture and say, 'Is that you?' Someday."
He emphasized that the photo doesn't show anything potentially incriminating about our current POTUS.
"[He was] Just kind of relaxed, just had a beer in his hand and that was it. Nothing out of the ordinary. Nothing scandalous. But I gotta think it would be him. It would be the right time and the right place."
As far as figuring how who the hardest partier was, Perry referred all future inquiries to the road crew.
"They were the ones that would come back and try and sweep it all up."
Perry just announced a 10-city tour with Gary Cherone and Brad Whitford in support of his latest solo album, Sweetzerland Manifesto.

Vanessa Bertrand always intended to go to a big-name, out-of-state school. She made the decision as a little girl, watching Cliff Huxtable on a rerun of The Cosby Show argue the merits of Princeton, Yale, Howard, and his father's favored alma mater, the fictional Hillman College. The conversation that unfolded on that episode of the 1980s sitcom—a show whose run ended before she was even born—left a deep impression on the child, driving her to research universities before even reaching high school. And at 18, it informed the decisions she made about college applications and the way she ranked the most desirable universities.
"A school's name opens more doors than many others," Bertrand explains. "Not only did college open doors, but the school's name did. So if you have Yale on your resume, it felt like an automatic yes, you'll get a certain job. So I felt like Ivy Leagues would help me out more than certain colleges would."
Going to college was never in question for Bertrand. Her father, Roland, insisted on it, drilling into Vanessa and her four siblings a belief that education would provide a path out of the blue-collar Boston neighborhood of Hyde Park. "A week before school, he would have us only eating fish since fish is good for the brain," Bertrand says. "We would have this juice—it would say brain juice, I think it was a V8."
And the night before the first day, her father would deliver a speech to the family about education as the starting point of one's life. "You are doing this for yourself, no one else," her father would say. "Just because you are doing well, never feel like you are owed anything. You have to go out and get it."
Bertrand's parents embody that advice. Haitian immigrants, they each work three jobs—her father at gas stations and her mother, Dieula Cadet, caring for the elderly. They put in long hours—evenings, night shifts, and weekends—to support their family. Neither has a college degree. Their children, they determined, would.
"Not only do we have to go [to college], we want to go because we feel like without it, it is a dead end," Bertrand says.
So Bertrand packed her high school career with Advanced Placement classes in subjects such as biology and calculus, which she loved and easily excelled in, and threaded in as many extracurricular activities as possible. She served on tobacco-prevention and college-preparation clubs and on the debate team, and she played power forward for the Raiders, her high school's basketball squad.
Her effort paid off. Bertrand graduated as salutatorian with a 4.23 grade-point average and an all-around record that exemplifies the type of high school career favored by college admissions offices.
Meet Dan, the reality-check counselor
While a college education was always her goal, like many of the more than 10 million who apply every year, Bertrand didn't spend much time contemplating what it would cost or how much would be wise and responsible to borrow. That changed in October of her senior year when she came across Dan Mendelsohn, a spry, bespectacled financial-aid adviser from UAspire, a nonprofit formerly known as ACCESS.
Mendelsohn, fresh out of college himself, planted the first seeds of financial prudence for Bertrand.
"There's a lot of rhetoric about, 'You can go wherever you want. You can do whatever you want to do,' and that is wonderful stuff to say, and very empowering, but you also need to be thinking about the financial side. And so many people aren't," Mendelsohn said.
Although he prefers to take up a whole 45-minute class when he can, his first encounter with Bertrand was during a condensed 10-minute talk to her class of 15, urging the students to start thinking about how much college costs as they determine which applications to prepare.
"A huge part of it is in the beginning of the year, setting up expectations that it's not just about admissions, but it's what you can pay for, so they kind of know the conversation is coming, even though it is not at the forefront of their mind," Mendelsohn says.
He has his work cut out trying to track down hundreds of seniors every day at any of five different Boston high schools that vary vastly in socioeconomic background, academic culture, and school resources.
Mendelsohn's carefully chosen words, attentive listening, and confident posture during his counseling sessions make him at once disarming and knowledgeable beyond his 23 years, helping him develop the student trust necessary to make an impact. "I have to prove to students that I'm looking out for their best interest from the start," he says. "I'm not trying to push an agenda on them. I'm trying to get to know them and see where their needs are and give them the resources they need in order to be where they want to be."
That October, in 2011, he urged Bertrand's class to get a head start on financial planning, broaden their application strategy to include at least one "financial safety net" school —such as a state university or community college—and begin searching for scholarships and other financial aid. read more..

PLYMOUTH — The Cape protesters on trial in Plymouth District Court on Tuesday for trespassing onto Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station last spring said they had a moral responsibility to break the law because shuttering the 42-year-old plant is in the public's best interest.
During her opening statement, Harwich resident Diane Turco, co-founder of the Cape Downwinders and one of a dozen defendants, said she hoped for a verdict of not guilty.
"In the best American tradition, we acted on a moral imperative with civic responsibility," Turco said.
The Downwinders have been looking forward to this week's trial. Several have been arrested in the past for trespassing, but the charges were always dismissed before they had their day in court.
"I'm glad we're finally here," said Falmouth defendant Joyce Johnson during a break. "It's been a long time coming. We're just trying to make our part of the world safe."
The Downwinders opted Tuesday for a bench trial before Judge Beverly Cannone, a decision made late Monday night. Cannone had agreed last week to give the group their trial, saying there was basis for a necessity defense.
Such a defense focuses on whether breaking the law is the only way to accomplish an intended result after other avenues have been tried.
"These are 12 people engaged in an act of conscience, faced with what they perceived to be a danger to themselves, the people of Plymouth and residents of the Cape," said Boston attorney Jeffrey Feuer in his opening statement.
Feuer, who specializes in citizens rights cases, is one of five attorneys representing the trespassers free of charge.
"They didn't go there to commit a crime," Feuer said. "They were there to stop a crime."
Some of those on trial Tuesday had trespassed in March 2013, walking onto the nuclear plant property with placards until they were stopped by security guards and local police. The remainder were arrested for trespassing in May 2013. The group said they were walking onto the property to deliver a letter outlining their concerns to plant officials.
Turco and fellow Downwinder member Douglas Long, of Orleans, opted to defend themselves during the trial so they would have the opportunity to give opening and closing arguments and question witnesses.
While the Downwinders were serious about the intent for their trespassing offense, there was a congenial atmosphere in court and several moments of levity.
Plymouth police Officer Paul Caraher, when testifying about the scene he found when he arrived at the plant last March, said he saw "15 to 20 individuals" about a quarter mile down the access road.
"They were older," Caraher said when asked to describe the group. That brought a chuckle from the defendants who are predominantly in their late 60s and 70s.
"Well, they were older than me," Caraher was quick to add.
And when Harwich defendant Elaine Dickinson took the witness stand, Cannone asked her to stand so her fellow defendants could hear her better.
"She is standing," another defendant informed the judge.
When questioned, Dickinson called the trespassing transgression "an act of conscience."
"I hoped the action would ultimately lead to closing the plant," she said.
All speakers were instructed to project their voices so they would be heard. Whenever the volume needed to be increased, attorney Bruce Taub, another of the defense team, would signal by waving his arms vigorously in the air.
Plymouth County prosecutor Sean Killam quickly established the defendants had trespassed — a point the other side wasn't arguing.
Over the next three days, the defense will establish intent. A parade of experts has agreed to testify about health and safety issues related to the Plymouth plant and to examine the long history of civil disobedience taken to prompt social change.
On the list of Wednesday's speakers are epidemiologist Richard Clapp, who has studied cancer risks related to Plymouth, and Duxbury Fire Chief Kevin Nord, who will discuss the lack of evacuation plans. Gordon Thompson — an expert in the fields of energy, environment and security — will talk about safety issues on Thursday.
On Friday, Stephen Nathanson, a professor at Northeastern University, will focus on social change. The defense will wrap up with state Sen. Daniel Wolf, D-Harwich, a longtime Pilgrim opponent.
Expert witnesses have offered their services free of charge, even declining to have their expenses covered, Turco said.
Other defendants are Margaret Rice-Moir of Brewster, Janet Azarowitz and William Maurer of Falmouth, Femke Rosenbaum of Wellfleet, Sarah Thacher and Susan Carpenter of Dennis, Mike Risch of Falmouth and Paul Rifkin of Cotuit.
Placard-toting Downwinders didn't waste a prime opportunity to stir up a little public awareness Tuesday, enduring the early morning chill to demonstrate in front of the courthouse before proceedings began.

Black Walnut Cookies - Not for Me
Each week, Thursday's Thoughts poses a new question of the week. This week's question asks, "What are your earliest childhood memories?" I can't remember much before the age of five. My first memory involves cookies and not in a good way. In Kindergarten, I ate black walnut cookies during one of the milk breaks. I don't know where the cookies came from or why anyone would feed children black walnut cookies, but they did. I felt ill almost immediately and asked permission to go to the bathroom. And here's where my earliest memory kicks in. I can vividly and in great detail recall running down a flight of stairs and throwing up once I reached the bottom. I remember green colors. This memory always involves the putrid green color. It also involves sawdust. Seems strange that I would have been present to watch the clean up, but sawdust sticks in my mind. What a lovely, traumatic first memory. I haven't eaten a black walnut cookie since this incident. Good thing, too, because when I was in fourth grade, I saw an allergist. They conducted one of those skin prick tests for allergies and guess what? My body reacted to the walnut test, forming a very large, swollen welt over the prick site.

Trouble began on the sixth day of the flight, November 17. The capsule developed an atmospheric leak, the pressure first dropping from 760 to 380 mm of Mercury. With the drop in cabin pressure all the animal test subjects died. It would have killed any Cosmonaut not wearing a spacesuit.

Is Florida Panthers host the perfect woman? Maybe, dude
By Ben Crandell
January 23, 2013
Eric Haley requires no seeing-eye dog to get around. Which you may find surprising after learning that the guy married to a former Miami Dolphins cheerleader, pictured right over there, calls her "The Dude." Really, dude?
But talk to Andrea Ocampo-Haley for a little while and you might agree, she would be a good dude to have a beer with.
First, the Delray Beach resident is a major sports fan who was a Dolphins cheerleader during the 2001-2003 seasons, so she can give you some scoop on the Wannstedt years, when the 'Fins would actually keep playing after the regular season. Remember the playoffs?
And, like a lot of guys who have waved good-bye to their playing days, Ocampo-Haley can exchange empathetic banter over the relief that comes with not having to work so hard to squeeze into the old uniform.
"Staying in shape now is a lot easier for me. I'm not having to fit into anything tiny, where my boobs will be spilling out. That ship has sailed!" Ocampo-Haley says, perhaps echoing something you have said to your buddies.
She can also talk hockey, having just started a gig as an in-arena host for the Florida Panthers, a role that sees her moving around the BB&T Center interacting with fans. Her first game was also the night the Panthers hung their division-championship banner. "It was so exciting, to get that rush and adrenaline. The energy in the building was out of control," she says.
A native of Colombia (the small city of Armenia, near Medellin) who attended Western High in Davie ("Go Wildcats!") and the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale (studying broadcasting), she's not sure how she came to love hockey, but likes it rough.
"I love the fights. The bodies slamming against the glass. Who doesn't?!" she says with a laugh.
You like cars? She likes cars. When Ocampo-Haley is not working for the Panthers (you can catch her this week at home games Thursday and Saturday), she is a spokesperson for Florida Fine Cars, dealerships in Hollywood and Miami specializing in pre-owned luxury rides. So she gets to run her hands over the BMWs and Mercedes you drool over.
"I always enjoyed cars, but here [at Florida Fine Cars] I am having to really know cars. Like anything, you learn it," she says. Ocampo-Haley favors SUVs such as the Lexus IS F and Audi Q7, which is "really refined, a car that speaks to me."
When she's not doing all that, Ocampo-Haley pursues an acting career by going on auditions. Our conversation took place while she was driving from Delray Beach to Miami to try out for two commercials. One of them for Home Depot. In case you want to talk to her about belt sanders and reciprocating saw blades.
