Measuring the Effectiveness of Your Brand Protection Program
Recently, Coraline Zhang, legal counsel at DH Anti counterfeiting, made an interesting comparison between Marketing and Brand Protection. She described brand protection as very similar to marketing. The latter fights for control of market share against legitimate competitors, while the former works to reclaim market share stolen from illegal traders and discourages loyal fans from buying counterfeits. A very interesting comparison, if only Marketing and Brand Protection could work together!
The marketing department has always been tasked with measuring their performance. They must report the effectiveness of a new ad campaign, a new website, a social media campaign, new products, etc. Although an easy factor is to measure increase in sales, many marketing strategies do not provide immediate results at the sales line. Brand building, for example, can be a process that takes many years and many different strategies. However, the marketing department does have tools to gauge the effectiveness of what they do so they can justify to management that they have invested wisely.
In short, it's (almost) all about results and how you show them.
Brand protection departments are now under more pressure to deliver results that can be tangibly measured. A brand protection program requires significant investment in tools that discourage brand infringers
Today's marketing managers and BPMs are both expected to know exactly where resources should be allocated, and have a clear idea of their impact on market result and revenue generated.
Key performance indicators (KPIs) are used on a daily basis in the marketing department. They are a set of quantifiable measures that a company or industry uses to gauge or compare performance in terms of meeting their strategic and operational goals.

Wishing you Happy Equinox
Happy Equinox!
Thanks to everybody for connecting and keeping in touch. It's a while since I wrote my last post here.
Finally I'm back, starting a new phase of my journey aimed at bringing light and lightness in everyone's life, or at least in the life of those people connected with me.
From now on, I will share thoughts - blog posts and videos - aimed at bringing you meaningful insights… with a sparkle of humour.
In my life I learned to appreciate humour. It's a huge part of our spiritual and healing journey on Earth. Humour saved literally my life, more than one time (I promise that I will tell you how, because that could be helpful).
One of the Spiritual Masters I met on my path taught me to never take myself too seriously, and this was one of the best advices I ever received, because I started looking at myself with humour.
This changed all my perspective about the world. Fears, insecurities and worries were replaced by curiosity and I was not anymore concerned or bothered by self-judgement or judgmental comments coming from other people. This is the reason why I believe that humour has a huge role in the life or everybody committed on a spiritual journey.
Anyway, right now I want just to express my gratitude to you for keeping in touch.
Just in case you want to check what I mean by saying "humour", well, in the video linked here you can have a glimpse of it. Happy Equinox!

Let's condense the nonsense.I have an issue and don't know how to handle it. My wife and I have been married over 2 years and we get along great. In July she found out her ex boyfriend right before me died of an overdose. Since then it has felt she isn't "all in" in our marriage. Sex became blah and not as frequent. Romantic things like touching, holding hands and kissing is mostly gone. I have a powerful gift of discernment and I can sense when things are not right so I've been sad and down for the last few weeks. She asked yesterday why I was down. She left for work and I found a message to her ex boyfriend after he died about how she was sorry she left him and if they would have stayed together they would be married. That message was in July after she found out about his death. Then the next message was 2 days ago saying she misses him. I'm not sure what is going on and haven't been able to ask her yet. I'm not sure if I should feel as hurt about this as I do. I am looking for tHe best way to handle it and approach it. Thanks
What do you want to do, and what are you capable of?
There is a great deal of speculation about the mind-set of your wife. You're the one posting, so my suggestion for the moment is that you focus on how you feel and what you can do.
You can be her rock: "I know that you are hurting, I hope you can find a way to let me help you, but you have to talk to me ... about all of it."
You can be the rock: Keep your distance, let her work through it, support her if she seeks you out, or call her out if her behavior becomes more morbid or delusional.
Hide under a rock: Ruminate on your own feelings of hurt, and be jealous of the romanticized, fictional version, of her dead ex-boyfriend.
My .02 cents is definitely don't pick #3.

MSc in Digital Health
The MSc Digital Health offers a unique opportunity to consider how technology can make a transformative impact on the health/medical sector and improve the lives of patients.
The area of digital health is experiencing rapid growth, with the market in Europe alone expected to be worth over 300 billion euros per annum by 2020. However, a key challenge for this rapidly developing area is the lack of appropriately skilled people worldwide, namely professionals who have an understanding of health/medicine and Information Systems. The MSc Digital Health will address this gap, contributing to a niche area of expertise at the cross section between health and technology. This programme combines teaching and innovative research in mHealth and health information systems in healthcare settings providing students with the opportunity to develop highly sought after skills preparing them for the workplace.

The machine came very promptly, I can't wait to use it!
My Mum started off with a Singer treadle machine. This is the third Singer in the home. I haven't used it a lot yet but it sews a neat straight stitch. It has all the features you could want and is light enough to carry with one hand. Only problem I had was inserting the bobbin into the machine but I found a very helpful video on the Singer site. But how to raise the bobbin thread? You have to go from page 10 to page 15. In the manual.
A fab. small machine. Very pleased so far.
The sewing machine is a present for our daughter. The parcel arrived very promptly and she is looking forward to using it. so I can't really comment on the actual machine until she has tried it out. The website was easy to use
Just what I wanted for myself as a more novice sewer. Prompt service but in 2 working days not one. Clear instructions. Ready to sew! Very happy overall.
I am really pleased with this machine; the product description is accurate; price was good (better than other websites or shops - go direct to Singer!), speedy delivery with a timed slot and it was delivered within that time so no hanging about at home. Machine instructions easy (helps that I have used Singer machines before of course) and I have all the attachments and accessories I want for now....AND it is so light. Cover a bit fragile - but I love the fitted "drawer" for the accessories. Probably not enough for a real seamstress but for everyday quick simple straightforward projects, this is ideal.
Delivered promptly and on time. Neat compact machine and it's a Singer! My Mom never used anything else and had a heavy duty Singer for years.
lovely machine replaced my old singer of 35 years was a bit dubious about having a newer machine but really like the new one and its so easy to use. Service was wonderful so quick and so easy so pleased i stayed with singer.
A lovely machine easy to use I highly recommend this product :-)

Ya, ya.. Everyone is pissed off at the IIIT guys and why shouldn't we be? The living facilities at our institute are probably the worst considering the standard of our institute. The poor state of the canteen, single rooms allotted as double occupancy, the worst computing facilities I've seen (Pentium III's!) are just a few things that I've been pissed at for now.
So now when the new OBH extension was constructed, all of us at least hoped to get decent rooms to live in. What now, you may ask? Here's the mail by Shubam Gautam:
All the students who were in NBH & GHEB will not be shifted to OBH-D block and will
continue to stay in their old room with same room partners.
Those who had already been shifted to OBH-D block will shift back to NBH & GHEB.(in
next sem then freshers and we will be living in NBH & GHEB together.This arrangement
is likely to be in place till Dec. Jan.)
PS:the OBH-D block will be occupied by the GURUKULAM students.
What the hell is this Gurukulam thing anyway? OK then, leaving this fact consider the rent. Last year it was Rs 3825 per person and this year for UG-2 (us now) they have increased it to Rs 6450. Nearly double. What for is what I would like to know?
I say, enough has been taken remaining down. If you are UG2k6, come on let us show them what we are made of. (This is getting senti now 😀 ). But if you are with me, please let me know.
PS: I was really angry while writing this. So, some cheering up 😀 .
UPDATE: Looks like we didn't have to do anything after all. We will be getting the new rooms. Hurray!

Cabin Crew Strike at British Airways Looms
A three-day strike by British Airways cabin crew is set to start at midnight Friday after last-ditch talks between the airline's management and union leaders collapsed.
BA Chief Executive Willie Walsh said it was "deeply regrettable" that the union declined to accept a proposal on pay and working conditions from the airline, adding that offer would be withdrawn once the strike begins.
Unite joint general secretary said that BA "does not want to negotiate and ultimately wants to go to war with this union."
BA said it expects to operate around 65 percent of its scheduled flights over the next three days.
"Tens of thousands of BA people stand ready to serve our customers," Walsh said. "BA will be flying tomorrow."
Walsh added that he had "no concern whatsoever" about the threat of solidarity actions in other countries, after unions representing ground crew and plane service workers in the United States, Spain and Germany indicated they may be prepared to join a walkout.
"I believe this industrial action is completely unjustified," he said, adding that he remained available 24 hours a day for talks.
The prospect of travel chaos in Britain in the run-up to the Easter break also intensified with news that railway signal workers voted in favor of a strike, joining rail maintenance workers. The Rail Maritime and Transport union has not called dates for a walkout of both groups of workers but has refused to rule out the Easter long weekend.
The prospective industrial rest is an unwelcome turn of events for the ruling Labor Party on the eve of a national election.
"As the country struggles out of the recession, the last thing we need is the unions holding the country to ransom," said Theresa Villiers, the opposition Conservative Party's transport spokeswoman.
BA argues that the disputed changes - including a pay freeze in 2010, a switch to part-time work for 3,000 staff and a reduction in cabin crew sizes from 15 to 14 on long-haul flights from Heathrow airport - are critical for its survival. Unite argues it was not properly consulted on the changes.
Analysts estimate that BA has already lost more than £25 million because of canceled tickets and the cost of contingency plans, which include leasing fully crewed planes from other airlines.
The airline placed an advertisement in British newspapers on Friday reassuring customers it would do its best to minimize disruption.
Unite has a second, four-day walkout planned to begin on March 27 and has said more strikes will be scheduled for after April 14 if the dispute is not resolved. It has made a pledge not to walk out over the busy Easter period.
BA's contingency plans for the first walkout allow for the operation of enough flights for around 65 percent of its booked passengers across its network.
A total of 1,100 flights out of the 1,950 scheduled to operate during the first three strike dates will be canceled.
More than 60 percent of its long-haul services into and out of London Heathrow and 30 percent of short-haul flights will operate. From Gatwick, it plans to operate all long-haul flights and more than half its short-haul network. Flights from London City airport should operate as usual.

Despite a reputation for progressivism in the U.S., Denmark may hammer soon those in poorer neighborhoods twice as hard for the same crime.
Justice Minister Soren Pape Poulsen told the Danish newspaper Berlingske that the conservative government will put forth a law that will double penalties for crimes in "ghettos" such as vandalism and theft.
Poulsen said that it would be up to local police fighting against "parallel societies" to decide where the exact areas would be created, and added that he did not believe that such a designation would stigmatize the neighborhoods and those who live in them.
Most Read
The government is supported by the far-right Danish People's Party, which is virulently anti-immigrant and sometimes decried as racist, but a representative from the left's Social Democrats also told Berlingske that the party found the proposal "sensible."
The list of "ghettos" has been periodically updated since it was first published by the Danish government in 2010 and criteria includes lower income levels and a majority of residents who have "non-Western heritage," according to The Local.
Some like the think tank Justitia have said that the law violates equality under the law, and University of Copenhagen law professor Kirsten Ketscher told TV 2 Ostjylland that it may violate international and European laws on racism.
Fadi Hassem, who works with children in the city of Aarhus and whose family fled to Denmark from Lebanon, told the station that the law would not make people in the areas think less about crime.
He said that the government should focus on aiding those who are vulnerable, and worried that it seemed the measure was moving to legislating people based on their national origins.

Most people want to sleep better every night, but only few people are able enjoy that luxury.
Even if you get the recommended 8-hour sleep daily, poor or disturbed sleep is still unhealthy. Poor sleep can make you feel drowsy, unrefreshed, listless, and fuzzy the next morning. What's worse, you can end up swigging endless cups of coffee to get through the day. This could lead to a vicious cycle of poor sleep at night and caffeine dependence at day.
Yawning away your sleep disorders is the worst you could do to yourself or your loved ones. Fortunately, there is a natural, safe and effective solution to help you sleep better, and it's called earthing.
Researchers unearthed fascinating evidences about earthing and its ability to create a potent and positive shift in the body's electrical state. Studies show that earthing affects the electrodynamics of the blood to reinstate natural self-healing and self-regulatory mechanisms.
What is Earthing?
Our ancestors were always in touch with Mother Earth. They grounded themselves by sitting or lying on the floor and walking barefoot. They also used footwear and mattresses made of natural materials like straw and leather.
On the other hand, the latter generations have lost this contact by keeping away from the floor in every possible way. We sleep on beds, sit on chairs, and wear footwear made of artificial materials like plastic or rubber that cut our contact with the earth.
Our penchant for cleanliness and aversion to dirt also make us stop our children from frolicking in the mud. Some parents even confine their children to indoor games and gadgets. A stark contrast in the past in which children splashed away in mud pools, built sand castles on beaches, or pottered around in gardens to look for worms and slugs. Despite their fondness for playing in the dirt, these children had strong immune systems.
Today, researchers believe that grounding ourselves back to mother earth can relieve sleep dysfunctions, stress, chronic ill-health, and inflammation. This process is referred to as 'earthing'.
The surface of the earth holds a limitless supply of free electrons. Electricity passes to and from the earth's surface through these electrons and some natural phenomena.
Reconnecting with the earth, either by going barefoot or using an indoor earthing system, helps transfer these electrons from the earth's surface into our bodies. The electrons behave like antioxidants and neutralise the free radicals to improve immune functions.
We've published an article that explained thoroughly the relationship between earthing and antioxidants. Get a better understanding about how earthing help reduce free radicals here.
To put it simply, the free electrons your body absorbs can make you feel peaceful and calm everytime you walk barefoot on the ground. That's just one of the many benefits of the naturally available electrons.
However, it's not always practical to get our hands and feet dirty. It's not even logical to go back to the ways of our ancestors. This is where conducting products, like our Earthing Sleep Systems and Earthing Mats, can help us reconnect with the earth.
How does Earthing help improve your sleep?
Cortisol, a hormone that the adrenal glands produce, is one of the many culprits of stress, sleep dysfunctions, and inflammation. The adrenal glands release cortisol in varying amounts based on a day-night pattern. Normally, cortisol works as a stimulant to help you stay awake and energised throughout the day. Cortisol levels decreases at night to help you fall asleep.
However, long-standing stress and chronic inflammation lead to abnormally high cortisol levels even at nighttime. Disrupted cortisol levels can cause insomnia, sleep disturbances, mood disorders, increased blood pressure, and other heart complaints.
Syle, a well-known researcher, established a connection between increased cortisol levels, stress, and inflammatory changes within the body as far back as the 1950s. Current biomedical researches used his findings to develop the 'inflammation hypothesis'. These researchers believe that chronic inflammation is the culprit behind most common health complaints today, which includes poor sleep and insomnia.
In addition, Ghaly and Teplitz conducted a pilot study in 2004 and concluded that earthing or grounding during sleep reduces cortisol levels. The study showed marked improvements in the subjects' sleep patterns. Improvement in sleep quality and relief from insomnia led to reduced aches and stress levels as well.
Earthing is a natural remedy that can eliminate excess free radicals, curb inflammation, and normalise cortisol levels, and improve sleep disorders.
How can you use Earthing on a daily basis?
The benefits of grounding yourself to the earth are reasons enough to kick off your shoes and indulge in a nice long barefoot walk in the garden or along the beach. Don't have the time walk barefoot regularly? Sleeping on an Earthing Sleep System is a convenient way to get a daily dose of the earth's healing energy. It's also a great way to help rid yourself of sleep disorders and daytime drowsiness too. Take a look in our Better Earthing shop.

"DEPORTM," read the license plate, emblazoned in a black frame featuring the Gadsden flag's mottos of "Don't Tread on Me" and "Liberty or Death."
Pacenza tweeted a photo of the vanity plate on Thursday, asking Utah agencies to clarify how "DEPORTM" was allowed to make it onto the road.
"How does this plate I just saw not violate your guidelines?" he asked in a tweet.
Hey @utahdld, how does this plate I just saw not violate your guidelines? #utpolhttps://t.co/zFDfm8IHxp pic.twitter.com/kt3S2KBh2z— Matt Pacenza (@mattpacenza) January 9, 2020
Now, the online backlash from "DEPORTM," a message described by some as "horrific" and "hateful," has resulted in the state debating this week whether to recall the vanity plate for carrying "connotations offensive to good taste and decency or that may be misleading" or expressing "contempt, ridicule or superiority of a race, religion, deity, ethnic heritage or political affiliation."
Tammy Kikuchi, a spokeswoman for the Utah State Tax Commission, the agency overseeing the approval of vanity license plates, told local media outlets that it was unclear how, in a state where more than 1,000 vanity plates were rejected in the last five years, "DEPORTM" was approved in 2015.
"We're not sure how it got through," Kikuchi told the Salt Lake Tribune. "We're really quite surprised."
The news surrounding the license plate, first reported by the Tribune, is the latest to challenge the question of whether vanity license plates are considered free speech or should be subject to government scrutiny.
When Pacenza first saw the vanity plate last week, he said it "felt significantly different" compared to some of the other more playful personalized plates he had see around the city.
"It jumped out at me because of how aggressive and confrontational and political the message was," Pacenza said to the Tribune.
The plate's existence is perhaps more surprising given the state's strict oversight on denying plates that are "vulgar, derogatory, profane or obscene," according to the Utah Department of Motor Vehicles. Some examples of rejected vanity plates in Utah cited by local media have made references to a range of sensitive or malicious subjects, such as violent crimes, genitalia and hate groups.
Soon after Pacenza posted the photo, he got the attention of state lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, who called for clarity on a process that allowed "DEPORTM" on the road.
"A private citizen has a first amendment right to say offensive things. The State does not, and has rules about license plates," tweeted state Sen. Daniel W. Thatcher (R). "I believe those rules have been violated here. Hopefully Tax Commission agrees."
Then, his Democratic colleague in the Utah Senate, state Sen. Luz Escamilla, announced that lawmakers would discuss on Wednesday what it takes to deny personalized plates and how the law is being interpreted.
Currently, if a license plate is recalled in Utah, the driver must respond within 15 days of being notified and select a different vanity plate, according to KSL. The owner of the plate can also file an appeal.
States have debated whether vanity license plates are protected under the First Amendment in recent years — and the results have been mixed. As UCLA law professor Eugene Volokh recently noted, Maryland and Kentucky ruled in 2016 and 2019, respectively, that vanity plates are protected as free speech. Those rulings came after Indiana's Supreme Court went the other way in 2015, saying that "license plates have long been used for government purposes."
As for Pacenza, the teacher who first tweeted about the plate in question, he is proud that lawmakers are stepping up, maintaining that "DEPORTM" should not be allowed.
"I think there's a wide range of opinions in Utah when it comes to an issue like immigration, and that's a good thing," he told KSL. "I think it's good to live in a place where we can express ourselves freely and have a diverse set of attitudes about complex issues, but it doesn't feel like to me license plates are the right venue for that."

Patriots bring back Folk
The Patriots have re-signed K Nick Folk. He missed last week's game after undergoing an appendectomy but is ready to kick again. Folk isn't a great fantasy option in a struggling New England offense.
View all Nick Folk Shark Bites
Folk released
Patriots K Nick Folk is out for Sunday night's game against the Texans after undergoing an appendectomy. New England has signed Kai Forbath to kick vs. Houston. He's a decent option if you need to replace Folk in your fantasy lineup.
Update: Folk has been released
Patriots sign Folk
The Patriots have signed K Nick Folk to replace K Mike Nugent. Folk has been out of the NFL since 2017 but kicked for the AAF's Arizona Hotshots earlier this year. He sports a career 80.3% FG conversion rate across 11 NFL seasons. Folk could come into fantasy value kicking for a strong Patriots offense.
Bucs add Folk
The Bucs have signed K Nick Folk. He'll compete for the starting job with K Roberto Aguayo, who's coming off a disappointing rookie campaign that saw him convert just 71% of his FGs. Folk has bested that mark in 7 straight seasons.
Jets send Folk to IR, add Bullock
The Jets have placed K Nick Folk on IR with the groin injury he suffered in pregame warmups last week. He'll be replaced by K Randy Bullock, who was cut by the Texans in September. Bullock missed 2 XPs in Houston's first 3 games and has connected on just 80.3% of his career FG attempts. You can do better for your fantasy squad.

The city of Longview is accepting bids from contractors for the final two phases of the Guthrie Trail, said Parks and Recreation Director Scott Caron. Bids will be opened later this month, and work is expected to take between 14 and 18 months depending on weather, he said.
"We have a prebid meeting with (the Texas Department of Transportation) in two weeks," he said this past week.
Phase 1 of Guthrie Trail — from Fourth Street to Delwood Drive — officially opened in August, though work continues where Phase 1 meets the Akin Trail.
The trail is among several projects either planned or under construction within the Parks and Recreation Department.
LPA Design Studios, a firm hired by the city to prepare designs and construction documents, will lead the meeting.

To the Editor:
Words and terminology have the power to mischaracterize, appropriate, and distort meaning.
Recently in these pages I read a restaurant review wherein the author called the meze she ordered "Tapas." Tapas are small plates or appetizers popular in Spanish cuisine which are more or less identical to the Greek foods Meze or Mezedakia.
In this review of a Greek restaurant for reasons unknown, the author referred to the small plates, known to us as meze or mezedakia as "tapas," despite the fact that they were being served in a Greek (not Spanish) restaurant. Perhaps the author wanted to lend some cache to her review; however, giving foreign names or characterizations to Greek foods has the effect of denigrating OUR cuisine and our culture.
I am old enough to painfully remember Pastitsio being characterized on menus in Greek restaurants and diners as "Greek Lasagna;" a pretty ironic distortion, considering that the word Lasagna comes from an ancient Greek word, Lasanon, for "cooking pan."
I have also heard kefthedes being called "Greek Meatballs." No, they are not; they are kefthedes, a particular and specific Greek and Eastern Mediterranean dish. At Festivals sponsored by Greek churches and elsewhere, I have seen loukoumades, advertised as "Greek Zeppole." Again, they are loukoumades; not a version of someone else's cuisine.
If we want our people and the wider non-Greek community to recognize our cuisine for what it is, a brilliant and iconic cultural expression, newly acknowledged globally as one of the worlds healthiest and singular cuisines, we need to STOP aping and advertising it as "someone else's" with a different name.
Greek Cuisine, like every other part of our spectacular heritage needs to be protected and promoted as specifically and particularly Greek, not a take on someone else's.

The biggest question that is plaguing sports right now is the steroid issue in baseball. I see it as people make mistakes and baseball will need to learn from them.
The baseball players are grown men capable of making grown men decisions, if they want to shorten their lives it's their choice. I will agree that it enhances their performance, but baseball takes more than just muscles. If being good at baseball just took being strong, Hulk Hogan would be the all-time home run leader, with Gemini from the original American Gladiators a close second.
Baseball takes hand eye and bat speeds, which are skills steroids cannot give an athlete. I am not saying people should do steroids, because they can make a person do awful things. We saw "roid rage†of the worst kind with the Chris Benoit incident.
The only reason I am mad is because baseball players like Roger Clemens, Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa are probably not going to be in the Hall of Fame. This means Bonds, who is the all-time home run leader, will join Pete Rose, the all-time hits leader, on the outside looking in. If someone would have told me ten years ago that the most dominant pitcher and three of the greatest home run hitters of my generation would not be inducted into Cooperstown, I would of probably laughed in their face.
Can you blame baseball players for taking steroids? Not really. The reward far outweighs the risk when it comes to using. Baseball players make ridiculous amounts of money. Most feel by using, they can benefit by getting a bigger payday. As long as they can collect a bigger paycheck they find it acceptable Even though they are shaving years off of, their lives, they are thinking about the present and how it affects their bank accounts.
Looking at all the people who have lost their lives to steroids, I don't see why a person would use them. The effect it has on a person's heart is really unbelieveable. Long time users of performance enhancing drugs see their bodies break down and cause long term damage to their organs.
The owners and the commissioner are the ones to blame. They turned a blind eye to the issue because they were filling stadiums when the home run chase was going on in the 90's. Now that it has gotten out of control, they are seeing the consequences of their decisions.
I do believe baseball is taking the right steps so that this issue is resolved. I guess I am just bitter that the decade I fell in love with baseball will forever be known as the steroid era. The special moments I watched will forever be tainted. I remember watching as both McGwire and Bonds hit their record setting home runs. I guess it's hard to accept that my childhood heroes will not be in Cooperstown.Â

Before the Wilpons even think about Joe Torre, or whomever else they might want to manage the Mets in 2011, they have to decide about Omar Minaya, the general manager. That is the real first order of business.
Fred and Jeff Wilpon have to decide if the decisions Minaya has made, the sum of them over time and the result of them, are more problem than solution as the team goes forward. As a .500 team is rebuilt into the World Series contender it was right up until Carlos Beltran took strike 3 from Adam Wainwright of the Cardinals four years ago.
If they decide that Minaya isn't the guy to do that, of course the first order of business is hiring his replacement. And that will be as big a hire as they have made in a long time.
Once the decision is made on Minaya, and it would have to come pretty quickly after the end of the season, then everybody can talk about who the next manager should be.
Suddenly it is no longer some kind of big-city, radio-talk pipe dream that the new manager of the Mets could be Torre.
His name is out there now that he has stepped down from the Dodgers. Will stay out there until Torre says he is 70 and doesn't want to manage anymore. Or that he and Ali Torre have decided to raise their daughter in Los Angeles rather than come home to New York.
But if Torre does want to manage, how about he comes back to New York this way: How about if he signs on with the Mets for a couple of years with Wally Backman next to him as manager-in-waiting?
How about that?
Of course this would be wonderful P.R. for the Mets, who sure could use some. But Torre wouldn't be coming back to New York as the kind of P.R. cover that Casey Stengel - who turned 72 in 1962 - was for the Mets way back at the beginning. Torre is one of the great baseball managers of all time, here or anywhere else, despite the rewriting of his record that goes on constantly around here.
Torre walked away from the Yankees after being the top manager in sports for all those years and went to Los Angeles and thought he was set up to go to a World Series with them before he twice ran into the Phillies, who right now are trying to be the first National League team in more than 60 years to go to three World Series in a row.
This year, his situation in Los Angeles became a mess because of the opera - and soap opera - involving the owners' ugly divorce. You hear that the Mets don't want to spend money, even with the fifth-highest payroll in the sport. The Dodgers this season, the Dodgers of Los Angeles, have a payroll of $94 million, 12th in baseball, right underneath the Minnesota Twins.
So Torre goes out in circumstances like this. He looked as if he had this year's Dodgers turned around after a bad start, but then the team fell away from first place for good. So he is out of the playoffs for the first time since he managed the St. Louis Cardinals.
He is 70 now, you bet. He is also Brooklyn, the way Fred Wilpon is Brooklyn, he has a good relationship with both Fred and Jeff Wilpon, you could see them all talking together last month when they were all in Milwaukee for the unveiling of the statue of Bud Selig outside Miller Park. And Torre will always be four World Series titles with the Yankees and two other World Series appearances and someone who had as much to do with re-growing and re-inventing the Yankee brand as anybody after 1996.
He can still manage, don't worry about that. If he came back, he would bring tremendous goodwill with him. And Mets history. And even National League history. He is available.
Is Torre coming back to the city, and Citi Field, a long way from happening? It is. You can't even think about the manager before you decide about the general manager. Even though Joe is still out there, so is Bobby Valentine, and everybody knows Backman has the game to manage the Mets.
It is something to think about, though, in the short run, Torre coming back to manage the Mets 30 years after he did that the first time. Backman sitting next to him the way Zimmy used to. There's no inside track on this, believe me. No inside information.
But Joe Torre's a horseplayer, so he knows. Sometimes you bet the way you do because of the way you want things to come out.
- You think Eli will wonder Sunday night what kind of stats he'd have if he got to play half his games indoors?
Don Mattingly waited a long time to get a managing job in baseball, and got passed over by the Yankees along the way.
But he deserves a much better shot than working for the Real McCourts of Beverly Hills.
Or wherever Frank McCourt and the spunky Jamie have all those homes.
Okay, maybe the Padres can't make the playoffs scoring about six runs a month.
What's next for the imperial mayor of New York, herding smokers together and making them light up someplace on Roosevelt Island?
By the way, the NFL's reaction on Ms. Sainz turned out to be totally appropriate.
That means it wasn't an overreaction.
A lot of dumb guy stuff went on at that Jets practice last weekend, and somebody on the Jets should have put a stop to it.
It wasn't the crime of the century, either.
If she showed up with a credential, she deserved to be treated with professionalism.
And guess what?
If you don't think she's a professional, then don't give her the credential in the first place.
You know who probably got the reaction they wanted out of this?
The bosses at her network.
I mean, the only show she seemed to miss after last Saturday's Jets practice was the overnight on WFAN.
- Is there a team in sports that is more under-coached and over-evaluated than the Dallas Cowboys?
Say it again: Maybe the Yankees are so good that it won't matter if they end up the wild card and won't matter if they end up having to play a win-or-go-home game on the road in the playoffs.
But since the Yankees started making the playoffs again in 1995, they have played a total of nine win-or-go-home games on the road in the playoffs:
Mariners in '95, Indians in '97, A's in 2000 and 2001, Diamondbacks in 2001, Angels in 2002, Angels in 2005 (two), Tigers in 2006.
Their record in those games is 3-6.
They won Game 5 of the Division Series against the A's in 2000.
Then they won Games 4 and 5 in Oakland the next year, the first one because of Capt. Jeter's famous flip to Jorge Posada.
I was starting to worry that we were going to have to reconvene the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform because Jeter told the home plate ump he'd gotten hit by a pitch when he hadn't.
If they hadn't been so obsessed with having the world's biggest tennis stadium, they could have built a roof over Arthur Ashe Stadium long ago.
But they can't.
Why can't they?
Because once they got in all the luxury suites, about half the people in the place felt as if they were in LaGuardia flight patterns, that's why.
Now they either have to get rid of Ashe and start over - which they should - or at least put a roof over Louis Armstrong Stadium.
Which is still a much better place to watch a big tennis match at the U.S. Open than Ashe ever was.
The great Arthur Ashe was all about inclusion, and his name is now on the most Exclusive stadium in Grand Slam tennis.

Sign Up News Home - Help Navigation Primary Navigation Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Top Stories Most Popular Secondary Navigation Search Search: US banks scramble to raise capital after stress tests AFP - Friday, May 8 WASHINGTON (AFP) - - Several US banks announced plans Thursday to raise capital after stress tests on these institutions showed they needed to build up "capital buffers" in the event of a deeper economic slump. ADVERTISEMENT Citigroup, Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo unveiled moves to boost capital through public stock offering and exchanges as the Federal Reserve made public the results of the tests conducted on 19 top banks. Bank of America, which was found to have the largest capital need, said it would raise 33.9 billion dollars through sales of assets and other actions that allows it to repay the government of money borrowed to tide through crisis. The bank said it "intends to sell common stock and/or convert existing privately held preferred stock into common shares" to meet the requirement for core capital. The stress tests conducted by the authorities were intended to ensure that leading banks could cope with any escalation of financial turmoil. Ten of the banks needed to raise a total of 74.6 billion dollars to shore up their capital base, officials said. Morgan Stanley said it had commenced a public offering of two billion dollars of its common stock and intended to offer about three billion dollars in bonds. Wells Fargo, which was found to require 13.7 billion dollars more in capital, said it wanted to boost capital with an offering of six billion dollars of common stock. Citi said it would expand its previously disclosed public exchange offers by 5.5 billion dollars under a plan to shore up its capital base that would limit the government stake in the cash strapped bank to 34 percent. Citi, which had to turn to the Treasury to avert a meltdown in 2008 and again in 2009, said it would convert 33 billion dollars of preferred shares, or 5.5 billion dollars more than under a plan announced in February. Regulators consider common stock a better source of capital than preferred shares, which require dividends to be paid. "Based on the maximum eligible conversion, the US government would own approximately 34 percent of Citi's outstanding common stock and existing shareholders would own approximately 24 percent of the outstanding common shares." The stress tests showed Citi needed an additional 5.5 billion dollars in capital to withstand a darker economic scenario. The Federal Reserve, which led the scrutiny on banks, said the much-anticipated tests show the banking system can withstand an adverse economic scenario but had to raise fresh capital to boost their reserves against losses. Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke said the results "should provide considerable comfort to investors and the public." He said nearly all the banks have sufficient capital "to absorb the higher losses envisioned under the hypothetical adverse scenario."
