Greg Smith Equipment Sales stocks all the necessary Atlas® car and light truck rotisserie adapters at all of our brick and mortar showroom / warehouses. Many body frames require special adapters for the proper mounting. This equipment is rather generic and is normally modified to fit the specific model of vehicle that is being mounted on the Atlas® auto rotisserie.
Please take the time to look at the pictures and descriptions on our product pages to determine which ones are right for you. If you have more questions or are ready to place your order, please feel free to call the professionals at Greg Smith Equipment Sales.
Adapters allow you to attach a vehicle to the rotisserie by connecting to the leaf spring rails instead of the standard mounting locations.
The "L" shape of these adapter brackets make it easy to get to those attachment points that are out of the way and hard to reach.
Adapters allow you to easily attach onto the rotisserie any uni-body type frames which have a vertical bumper mounting pad at the rear of the vehicle.
Set of four mounting plates for use with rotisserie adapters.
Door bars help maintain door alignment and prevent the "twisting" of a vehicle frame.
Adapter kit for use with the Auto SPINS Rotisserie - includes unibody adapter, valance adapter, leaf spring adapters, universal door bars and mounting plates.

The Housing Authority of the City of San Luis Obispo received more than $231,000 in federal grant funding Wednesday that will be used for improvements to some of the more than 700 units owned and operated by the organization.
The Housing Authority was awarded the funds by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Capital Fund Program and will be used to install energy-efficient, double-pane windows and heating and cooling systems, as well as new roofing, to units that are up to 50 years old and in need of repair, HASLO Executive Director Scott Smith said Thursday.
"Housing is so fundamental to a person's well being that helping those find it is one of the most important things we can do," Scott said.
HASLO applied for the grant in September, and though the award was approximately half of what was applied for, Scott said the organization was thankful for the resources to renovate some of its aging properties.
The capital fund provides support annually to public housing agencies for capital and management activities, including modernization and development of public housing. The fund also allows agencies to use the grants for financing housing developments that include public housing.
About 800 families, senior citizens and special needs residents depend on HASLO resources every month countywide.

CES in Depth: The big announcements from Press Day at CES 2014We recap the biggest stories from day one at CES 2014, a hands-on look with Roku TV, and Brian Tong's first ever "C-E-Yes or C-E-No"
The CES is [unk] from CES 2014. Now joining me here, my colleagues, my lovely and handso me colleagues, yup, Bridget Carey and Jason Jenkins in the house and, you know, we're here for CES In Depth. We kinda talking about some of the big headline news or some of the products or things that stuck out in our minds. You know, a lot of trends happen here, wearables, 4Ks, LED TVs, you know, also Smart appliances. But I wanted to talk about-- today we heard about LG's Lifeband and their heart rate earphones. For you guys, what's your take on the whole fitness band thing? We've really seen it explode now wearables and kind of the fitness angle. What's your gut-- What's your gut take on this, Jay? -Well, it looks like I can't agree this. Really a very, very shortlived because your phone can do all this. I've got moves on my iPhone and actually this is better than these fitness bands 'cause it knows where we've been and it's got much better display. This is something is gonna absorb by phones really, really quickly. They're really nice products. I used the Fitbit for a bit, but that was it. -Fitbit for a bit. -Fitbit for a bit. -What do you think Bridget? -Yeah, I mean, how much, you know, are you motivated actually put it on. One that struck out to me interesting was Razer. They have one called the Nabu. It's supposed to be the best of both worlds. The Smartwatch, you know, capabilities of the Pebble where you get your text alerts, but also your fitness so maybe they're finding that happy medium, you know. -Yeah. -But yeah, right now, I'm curious, but I'm not dishing out the dollars. -I mean, a lot of CNET editors that are even into fitness have given the wristband a try. I've tried multiple ones, but over time I don't-- at first, you think it's cool that you know how many steps you took, you might like that here CES. But then after a week or two, you're like, "Does it really matter?" And like you said Samsung phones, iPhones, there's apps and also natively the tips that can track your movements without worrying anything on a bracelet. So, I do think they're all jumping, you know, I'm bored. There's some interesting things there, but shortlived-- What's the shelf life guys? Let's throw out a number. Let's play a list. -Six months. -Six months? -It will be landfill, okay. -Okay. -That's very sad. Also, you know, we talked about some of the other things out there. Oh, okay. We talked about, you know, the Pebble, right? Pebble is kind of coming back with their nextgen version, the Pebble Steel. I think that one is interesting, but again when you talk about short life, you know, there's something in my gut that feels like Pebble is the one that got people interested in this market. -Yeah. -And that once you see the big players come out with what, you know, their final polished generations of these Smart watches, then let's be honest of whatever Apple puts out there. I wonder, you know, Pebble is gonna just get absorbed by, then it's like they're the ones that pioneer that, but are they gonna be able to stay in the market and be relevant. That's-- I think it's a tricky one for them. -Yeah, 'cause as soon as Apple comes along or Google, you know, then it's like oh-- -Right. Exactly. These are the big boys. -who remembers Pebble. -Yeah. -But you know they are making it stylish. I mean, it doesn't look a toy anymore. It looks like something new to wear as an actual watch. -Yeah. And then, you know, there's definitely a tech store a success story from the TechSpace as well, you know, kickstarters where they got their start. They raised over $10 million from Kickstarter. I mean-- so, we shouldn't just, you know, 313 be like, oh, they're in trouble. -Yeah. -I mean, they've had an amazing story just in itself in the TechSpace. So, you know, we'll see where these wearables go. We're transitioning over to kind of one of the cool things I saw that I may not buy, the Samsung bendable TV. What do you-- A bendable TV. -Did you hear that LG now has one too? -Is it an inch-- -It's-- It's-- -Is it an inch bigger because, you know, they're like-- they're like sword fighting all the time? -Oh, yeah. Who's got the bigger one? -Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. -Yeah. But-- Yeah, just change it on a whim with a remote. It seems like something that's cool to show off to your friends on the big game day, but-- -If you're a baller. -Yeah. If you have a lot of money, right? Yeah. I don't know. Something different. It's kind of quirky, you know, but-- you know, you take it out of it. -Well, the TV guys have insisted the curved screen. Is it better for you because it's more cinematic 'cause it surrounds your favored visions? -It's such a small curve. -It's like you need an IMAX theater that's curved on a dome. -It's so small. -I get sick on those. -Yeah. -Is there a slight difference? -You're on a bigger curve. You'll be happy if it was found. -If you wanna go, go away. -Jayson, do you like bigger curves? -Well, I'm not sure-- -But you're blushing. I don't know why, but you are. Okay. We're also, you know, Sony's 4K camcorder, I thought that was pretty interesting and we just saw that from Sony. Again, it's not gonna be very affordable, but pushing 4K into the really true consumer space, they're pioneer in that. I like it. I'm not-- I'm not gonna buy. I don't have a need for 4K camera. I don't have a 4K TV. -But-- -When was the last time you bought camcorder? When was the last time-- -Really? Really? -anyone uses a camcorder? It's just on the phone like it's all in phones. I mean, the thing of Sony that's really successful is the professional end. -Yeah, absolutely. -Cameras for everybody. I mean that actually makes loads and loads of money. So, I mean it's kind of exciting and interesting and well done them for making a 4K camcorder, but it's not gonna sell. -They almost have to because if they have these 4K TVs, -Yeah. -and it's like, Oh my god there's something to make content for them, so let's encourage people with, you know, more 4K this and 4K that. -It's tricky because also, you know, it's just shown that people are going to gravitate more towards convenience. If it looks good enough or even better than good enough, it looks great. It may not be 4K, but are still gravitating towards what's coming in. I mean, look at our Smart, you know, point-and-shoot cameras. -Uh huh. -Those are almost completely like when was the last time, I don't know, do you guys use point and shoot? I just picked up my-- -Phone. -my phone now these days and then-- -Yeah. Yeah. -I miss a point-and-shoot when I don't have a good flash. -Yeah, right now. -That's about it, so-- -Is there gonna be a terminology issue with 4K and Ultra HD? I mean, are they're gonna all use one eventually? -Although sometimes they use both together that to make sure that we all feel good about that. -Yeah. -Also, you know, another product that we've seen here in trend though, we've seen here Smart appliances, kind of the ecosystem, Samsung, Smart home, LG's homechat. You know, we've seen other devices kind of before the big players have kinda jumped in here from simple things and just all these different interphases to really control your home. Do you guys own any of these things even something like a Nest thermostat or anything like that? -No. -No. -Oh, I'm very-- I'm very excited about the potential of it. I mean, it's really-- it's very, very early days and a lot of this stuff is very, very gimmicky-- -Yeah. -because it's very new. -I love my Nest though, honestly. -Oh well-- -It's ex-- I mean, let's be real, it's expensive. But I wanted dto give it a try just for the standpoint of, you know, we see so much tech coming in and out of our doors, you know, at work and, you know, it's expensive. It's definitely not a general consumer thing yet, but it's fun. I mean, you walk by, it detects you there. It turns on the heat. It's pretty nefty, but not-- not at that-- not even, you know, when you're talking about a $20, $30 thermostat versus like about $150, $200 thermostat-- -You're changing your life, yeah, for that price. -you know. But-- You know, I do like this whole Smart Home Automation. Some people might be-- maybe for the anal retentive like that like, you know-- -Keep shock of everything. -control your lights, control your crackpot-- a crackpot. Are you done with that? -I don't know what a crackpot is. That must be a blessing. -It's a slow cooking thing. Yeah. -Oh [unk]. Slow cooking. Thank you. Thank you. -Yeah, slow cooking. There you go. There you go. -For those of international watches. All right, so, another thing just being here, you know, this is the day before CES takes off. Just asking you guys, what are you guys really maybe were you looking for to sometimes media members in the press are little jaded. -A little. -When they-- A little. Sometimes, when they-- when they come here year after year, but is there anything that maybe you're kind of looking forward too here at CES 2014? -Well, I'm really excited-- I'm interested by Smart watches as an idea. I've not seen one that I would buy away, but I sort of think more phones are getting more complicated again and bigger and I can see that something that I wear would be really used, so I just don't know quite what it looks or what it does. -Someone-- No one shown you that thing yeah, right? -Basically iPhone hasn't come out with one. That's pretty insane. -But you never know someone may-- will be here and they will come and something-- I'm looking for that. -On the same reason, give me a reason I put it on my wrist. -Let's now-- -I mean, also make it a little more stylish too, you know. -Well, they haven't really targeted the female from the smartwatch standpoint. -No, they haven't. -Just-- I'm just saying, you know. -I've noticed. -I know. -I've noticed as well. So, also, what we're gonna do here now guys, you know, In Depth, again, every-- everyday at the end of the day, we're kinda just-- just gonna highlights some of the things that happened, but I have a little special segment for you guys. Okay. Marco over there, can you hear me Marco? We're gonna-- We're gonna turn off the music. This is a segment, you know, we'll get the bee bump in a little bit in a second, okay. Just-- Just let me-- Just let me just-- -Okay. -We'll just relax here for a second and let the music take control. Okay. Can we hear that? Okay. You feel that? -I'm feeling something. -You feel that. Yeah, you're feeling something. Okay. This is what we call CE Yes or CE No. You get that? -All right, so-- -We did that. -what I'm gonna do here is I have a few things that I've seen at CES and I wanna get your take-- -Okay. -CE Yes or CE No, all right? Here we go. All right. We're gonna take this first picture from my camera. Is the Calibre Bluetooth toothbrush. It tells you how well you're brushing, where are you brushing? There's accelerometers. There are gyroscopes in it. CE Yes or CE No. -CE Yes. -CES actually. -CES? -I've got an electric toothbrush that does the job. I'm CE No. -I'm a little No on the price though, but yes in concept. -What was the price on it? -$100. -CE No. CE No. All right. Here we go. Next one coming up if I can get this right. Okay. Here we go. This guy, this is kind of targeting the female market, right? This is from Netatmo. This is called The June. Now, this is targeted for women. It detects sunlight, right, that hits you and it tells you by syncing with your phone, it alerts you whether you need to start applying sunscreen on, if you've been out in the sun too long, right. We all need that. Oh, I don't need that. Yeah, you guys might need it more than me. CE Yes or CE No, Bridget? -CE No. -CE No! -I'm pale. I know when it's getting hot out. I know to stay away from the sun. I don't need like, oh, let me check if I'm burned or not, you know. -Okay. -It's not worth it especially it's almost also like 100 bucks. -Yeah. Jason? -CE Dumb. -CE Dumb. -Oh my god, no! -Yeah, it looks pretty, but- -Okay, so it works on the fashion side for you. -Sort of, maybe kinda. -Okay. Okay. Fine, fine, fine, fine. All right, we talked about this. This is gonna be a quick one. Bendable TV. CE Yes or CE No? -CE Yes. -Yeah. -Yeah. -CE No. -CE No?! Wait, who said-- who said out there-- Uh-oh. I see CE No and Yeses. Okay, I'm a CE Yes just because it's crazy. You could bend your TV. It's crazy! -Here's another thing that's gonna break-- -Come on, CE Yes. All right, here we go. Last one for you guys because everyone at home is just like what is going on here. Panasonic high-tech hair dryer, blower keeps your head moist, well drain your hair. -What? -I don't even-- -CES in the crowd. Jayson Jenkins-- -Keeps your hair wet. -No, no. Keeps like your skull moist and stuff that's just go moist in a hair dryer. -Oh, yeah. -I don't know how it does that. It's amazing. I wanna check it out. -Yeah. -CE Yes. -Oh yes, that's CE No. CE Okay. -CE-- -CE maybe I have to see to believe it. -Maybe I got a CES. Greg over there with the bald head CE No. I'm feeling that. All right guys, that will-- If I'm doing this show again, I'm gonna do more of this. That's all I'm gonna say right now. Okay. And then probably, finally, one of the classic moments, you know, sometimes you come to CES you don't know what to expect. -Uh huh. -We had a classic moment at Samsung's Keynote. We're just gonna show it to you. This is Michael Bay at Samsung's Keynote. He came on stage and we're gonna show you what happen, all right? Let's check it out guys. -Ladies and gentleman, director and producer, Michael Bay. Good afternoon. -Thanks Joe. -Good afternoon, Michael. -How was everyone today? My job as a director is I get to dream for a living. -Michael, you know, you're known for such unbelievable action. What inspires you? How do you come up with these unbelievable ideas? -I create visual worlds that are so beyond everyone's normal life experiences, and Hollywood is a place that creates a viewer escape. And what I try to do, as a director I try to-- The type is all off. Sorry, but I'll just wing this. -Tell us what you think. -Yeah. We would just-- We'll wing it right now. I take-- try to take people on an emotional ride and-- -The Curve? How does it-- How do you think it's gonna impact how viewers experience your movies? -Excuse me, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. -Ladies and gentlemen, let's thank Michael Bay for joining us! -Hold on guys. -I love that. -Wait, wait, the type is not right. I'm gonna go. Oh, I'm just kidding. I can read. I'm no Michael Bay. Come on. That was-- That was a classic moment. I mean, I've never. This is a movie-- How would Michael Bay feel if Megan Fox did that to him on the set of Transformers? That's unacceptable. That's unacceptable. -Did you read at his blog he didn't really apologize? He just said I got too excited and right or wrong line-- -He looks so excited. -and I guess live isn't for me. How embarrassing. -That was exciting for us, let me tell you. -He was supposed to have a big promo for the new Transformers movie too. -All right, guys. Well, you know, we're gonna do now here. Thank you so much for coming up here CES In Depth. We're gonna take a break and we're gonna say goodbye to lovely friends here, Bridget and Jayson. But I'll be back with Jim Funk from Roku. You like that name? I like that name. I like that name. You can tell people from Roku are here 'cause they are clapping for that name. There just brand new announced Roku TVs. We're really excited about that so we'll take a break. We'll be back with Jim and we'll catch you guys in a second. -My dad had a Honda. My mom had a Honda. -It was coming from a 2007 Honda Accord. -I traded for a Morpheus Titania. -No joke, I test drove 15 different vehicles. I kinda was in different tour Ford and then I sat on the Fusion for the first time and I just like, "Wow! This is it! You have the power, but you have the fuel economy." That's what Eco Boost does. I love to tell people, look at what Ford now has to offer. -All right guys, we are here back with Roku's own Jim Funk. They were-- They were doing the wave over in the back. If they do it, I-- Jim and I will continue the wave. Guys, ready? Start it, hurry up. Jim-- That was fun. Okay, Jim, we're here with you, here to show off Roku TV. I mean, this is an exciting announcement for you guys finally getting your UI and interface into a TV set. Can you kind of tell us about the products and how it came to be? -Yeah, sure. We're making set-top box. It's now for about five and a half years and what we did is we took everything we've learned about making a good user interface and we put it inside the TV. So, we partner with Hisense and TCL to the five largest TV manufacturers in the world and this is Roku TV, showing here at CES and ship being late summer this year. -I mean September? -Summer, September. Whenever the retailers put on the shelf, that's when we'll have it out there. -Okay, excellent. Now, I'm standing on some cement blocks. I just wanna be really transparent with you guys out there 'cause Jim is a very tall man. Can you show us the UI because a lot of people that may not know about Roku, you know. TCL and Hisense, these are, you know, two companies China-based really making en routes in the U.S. and they're not familiar with, you know, Roku as much as over here in the United States. So, if you get kinda maybe just talk about what they're getting and people that have never really even given Roku a chance to that, but I mean it has so much content, kinda show them what they can expect. -So the first thing, people are familiar with Roku. This is a standard interface, very familiar to people who are Roku users, all the great content there on the right-- some TV specific functionality. So, the TVs are made-- Hisense, but all the softwares from Roku. So just like no more Roku-- Come over here Jim, be my friend 'cause we want to see the TV, right? -Options on the left and on the right, all the different services. We have M-Go movies. We have our Search Feature. We have news from AOL. But a Go Back appear and what you'll see are the inputs or the different options that you have. And the way we design this, when you sit down your TV you say, "What do I wanna do? Do I wanna watch my cable? Do I want to watch Netflix, Hulu Plus?" You don't think about input 1, input 2, input 3. You just wanna click. So, if I click on cable, I'm running my cable TV, whatever channel I'm tune too. I sit back. I'm right back to my interface again. I wanna go to Netflix. It's right here, Hulu Plus, Pandora, all of that built-in to it just like you have on the Roku player, but now with the single interface, a single simple remote control right in your TV. -And we should scroll up to show a specific icon here, YouTube. YouTube, that's big for you guys and also for people that are Roku owners, right? -So, we launched YouTube on the Roku 3 in December. It will be coming out on other models this-- next couple of months. -Yeah, it's great to have it on Roku. Now, one thing that I think is really cool at the Roku, this is just a personal anecdote is I'm a Slingbox user and you're able to throw your Slingbox video from your device onto a TV with a Roku 3 and from what I've been told that also we'll be able to work with this TV sets as well. Is that correct? -That's correct. So, let's say you have this TV in a second bedroom, your Slingbox is in your living room. -How many bedrooms do you have Jim? -Three. -Third bedroom. So, yeah, just like with all the Roku products, all the apps that available on the Roku box, they'll be here on Roku TV. -And for Roku as a company just seen how you guys have grown and evolved. I mean, this is one of the steps. We have two manufacturers right now. Are you guys looking to do anymore work with, you know, some of the other TV manufactures out there? -Yeah, we think of Roku TV as a platform. It's all software and TCL and Hisense were our first two partners, but we're really looking to make the Roku platform as broad as possible. So, we still do lots of boxes and do lots of TVs as well. -Okay. Well, you know, there you go. The TCL and Hisense Roku TV, we have them right here looking great, and that's really gonna do it for us here with Roku TV. Thanks so much for coming out, Jim. I appreciate it man and I appreciate let me stay on the cement blocks. Okay, please join us again starting at 9:00 a.m. Pacific time tomorrow. We'll have the Sony keynote. Yes, another Sony keynote. Our live torture test. You see them last year. You know what you're expecting. The 404 Show, the next big thing super session. That's gonna be with Brian Cooley and Tim Stevens. We're also gonna show you Drones, everything you can think of, all the news and new products we're talking about. So, goodnight. I'm gonna get some food. We'll see you right back here tomorrow.

How Much Money Does It Cost to Change a Name?
How Much Money Does It Cost to Change a Name?
Although anyone can informally change their name by simply using a different one, if you want your new name to appear on official documents such as your driver's license, social security card, passport and bank accounts, you'll need a court order legally changing your name.
How Much Does it Cost to Change a Name?
The procedure for getting that court order varies depending on the state and county where you live. Costs also vary and range between $150 to $435 depending on the state but might include:
- Court filing fees
- Fees for certified copies. A certified copy is a photocopy with an official seal on it. The cost of a certified copy varies according to the locality and the length of the document, but is typically $20 or less.
- Fees to publish a notice in a newspaper
- Fees to an attorney or a service such as LegalZoom to prepare name change documents for you. You may also have attorney's fees if someone opposes the name change and you decide to have a lawyer represent you at the hearing.
- Fees for changing the name on a birth certificate
Changing Your Name After Marriage
If you plan to follow the traditional approach and take your husband's last name after marriage, you may be able to change your name on all your official documents by simply providing a certified copy of your marriage certificate. You do not need to file a petition with the court.
However, if you are planning a less traditional name change after marriage—such as creating a new last name for both spouses or having the husband take the wife's last name—you will most likely have to petition a court for a name change.
Changing Your Name After Divorce
If you changed your name when you got married but want to go back to your former name after your divorce, you can ask for your name to be changed as part of the final divorce decree. If you do this, a certified copy of the divorce decree will usually be sufficient to change your name on all of your official documents.
However, if you did not request a legal name change as part of the divorce, or if you also want to change your children's names, you will need to petition the court for name changes for yourself and/or your children.
Petitioning a Court for a Name Change: Procedure and Costs
To legally change your name, you must file documents with the court in the city or county where you live. In many instances, you will also need to attend a hearing. You can't simply change a name online.
You're generally allowed to change your name for any reason except to commit fraud or evade the law.
Preparing the paperwork: The first step in changing your name is to prepare a name change petition and other documents to file with the court. You can research the procedure and prepare these documents yourself, you can use LegalZoom's online name change service to prepare the documents, or you can hire a lawyer. LegalZoom's service currently starts at $139; a lawyer may charge a flat fee or an hourly rate to prepare and file documents and appear on your behalf at a name change hearing.
Filing the petition: The court will charge a fee to file your name change petition. These fees vary from state to state. For example, the filing fee is currently $150 in Massachusetts, $200 in New Jersey and $435 in California.
Publishing notice: Many states require you to publish notice of your name change in a newspaper. These sorts of notices are published in the classified section of newspapers, under the category "legal notices." The judge may tell you where to publish your notice, or you may be allowed to choose.
You must pay the newspaper a fee for publishing your legal notice. Costs can vary dramatically depending on the newspaper, so it's wise to shop around if you have a choice. Many cities have a legal or business newspaper that publishes legal notices at a lower cost than the regular daily newspaper.
Obtaining certified copies: After you file and publish your petition (if that's required), the court will hold a hearing on your name change. If the judge approves your name change, he or she will issue an order. You will need to get a certified copy of the order to take to such places as the Social Security office, the DMV and your bank.
Changing your birth certificate: If you also want to change your name on your birth certificate, you'll need to take the certified copy of the name change order to the bureau of vital records or similar agency in the state where you were born. There is usually a fee for changing a birth certificate.
Additional Requirements for Changing a Child's Name
Minors under the age of 18 cannot change their own names—a parent must file the name change petition. The procedure and cost for changing a child's name is the same as for changing an adult's name, except that the parent filing the petition must take the extra step of serving the other parent with notice of the name change petition.
If you don't know where the other parent is, you will need to make serious attempts to locate that parent, and if you cannot, you will probably have to publish notice of the name change in a newspaper.
A name change can be an important part of a fresh start after a marriage, divorce or other life event. A name change is simple legal proceeding that doesn't usually require a lawyer, but you do need to make sure you prepare the paperwork properly and follow all the court's rules and instructions.

They're basically ten kirby grips in one. You twist your hair up in a bun and to hold it in position you just need to place one of these at an angle, twisting around like a cockscrew as it locks the hair in place. One in each side (think of it like chopsticks) will do the job well, keeping hair in the perfect style and secure as long as you need. If you want a casual up do these little gadgets are fantastic - I've been wearing my hair in a bun for work and keeping it in all night becasue it's really comfy. You don't get the tight, tugging feeling you sometimes get with hair bands or buns, because it's actually really loose. For a quid you can't really go wrong!

When you run media buying and sports marketing for a massive advertiser like Anheuser-Busch, there aren't many career moves left that would be considered a promotion. But that 's exactly what Mark Wright pulled off earlier this year when he left the brewer for a top media job at AT&T, the nation's biggest advertiser behind Procter & Gamble.
Mr. Wright, who was named the telecom's VP-media and sponsorships this past summer, said the move wasn't about climbing the corporate ladder. It was "about the opportunity at AT&T," he said. Telecom is "so dynamic, it's growing by leaps and bounds. It's a very competitive category which is appealing to me personally because I grew up in the beer wars."
In an age where so many ad execs move jobs every few years, Mr. Wright's tenure at A-B is remarkable for its longevity. He joined in 1991, after a stint at Bozell Advertising in Dallas, where he served as associate media director, working on accounts such as American Airlines and Dial Corp. At A-B, he started as a field media manager, working with wholesalers on local marketing. He served in several other capacities and was promoted to VP for media, sports and entertainment in 2009. His duties included overseeing Busch Media Group, the company's in-house buying and planning arm. He also was instrumental in negotiating A-B's $50 million-a-year NFL sponsorship deal. The brewer is the nation's 22nd-largest U.S. advertiser, according to the Ad Age Data Center.
At AT&T, Mr. Wright is working with an outside media agency, WPP's MEC. And he's dealing with a much broader base than the sports-loving, majority-male beer audience. AT&T covers the spectrum, from consumer-targeted TV, broadband and phone services to business solutions. "The company in general will have to look at how we can fit into each person's lives," he said.
His responsibilities include managing traditional media, paid search and social nets and handling sponsorship consulting, negotiations and management. He reports to Esther Lee, senior VP-brand marketing and advertising.
Those who know Mr. Wright say he is ready. Coming up through A-B media, "he was trained by the best," said former A-B creative chief Bob Lachky. "And he was always there in the thick of it. He's totally comfortable with the media community and he's well known because he's been around for a while."

I want you to tell people about how they will die, how their soul will die, how they will break and how it will be the most beautiful thing that has ever happened. From the broken pieces they will put together a being that knows who they are, that no longer owes anyone an apology, and no longer has to explain themselves to anyone in order to receive worthiness.
You no longer have to try so hard to get people to love you because you will love yourself so much it will no longer matter. You will be ok with the words you speak. You will know that the words you share bring authenticity and wisdom and that they have value even when you think no one is listening. Someone is listening. The world is listening. It is watching. We are dying. We are falling down into so much pain and fear and anger that we are desperate for change. We, the world, is watching you. We need to see you bare your soul. We need to see you be a metal head or a quilter or a dog walker. We need to see the joy you derive from living. We need to see you break and we need to watch you put yourself back together because we need to know it won't kill us. We need to see the beauty of your change. We need to know that we won't be alone when our time comes and we need to see that no matter what we are all the powerful beings that we keep wishing we were inside. You know the one, that little girl or boy who always wanted to be a super hero. That's you. And no one can tell you anymore that it's not because you fought your way through all the fear and self-doubt brought on you by all the things society taught you to believe about how someone else deserved more than you or the pain you endured at the hands of your loved ones. You survived and not only did you survive you thrived and you learned all the little things about you that make you uniquely you.
This this is why I am here. I am not here to write your pretty stories about how to meditate. I am here to find the broken pieces of your soul and bring them back to you. I am here to watch you tell yourself "I am worthy." I am here to watch you embrace the lost child and integrate her innocence back into your soul. I am here to guide you when the time comes for you to fall apart. I am here to take through the little death, the dying of your soul, and bring you back out into the light. So when I come to you with wisdom, I can't come in little bits and pieces. I need to tell you to rip your heart out and put a new one in. I need to tell you it's ok to die and I need you to know that when you are reborn you will be a beautiful butterfly. I promise you. I promise you, you are the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

Last September, I received an email from one of my sales coaching clients letting me know that they were terminating my contract. I asked for a brief explanation as to why. They indicated that 3 main factors led to their decision. First, I wasn't holding their team accountable. Second, I seemed to review the same material each week and third, I hadn't taught them anything about social media.
I was shocked to hear the rationale behind their decision. I would never agree to hold a sales team accountable (it's their manager's job), I review the fundamentals each week until the team begins to put them into practice and I can barely login to my Twitter® account.
So, what happened?
The reason this client became dissatisfied with my services had nothing to do with performance. They terminated my contract because I wasn't meeting their expectations. It doesn't matter that I never agreed to these expectations, what matters is that at some point I stopped paying attention to what they really wanted and instead focused on what I thought was important. This type of miscommunication leads to most arguments, both personal and professional.
In theory, exceeding expectations is a simple concept – find out what someone expects and make sure you always deliver a little bit more. However, it can be very difficult to consistently execute this straightforward idea because we get so focused on ourselves.
If you are interested in growing your business, you had better become an expert in not only meeting, but also exceeding the expectations of your prospects, customers, vendors and employees. Here's a three-step process to get you started.
First, you need to set expectations. By "set" I mean that you should help them understand exactly what you feel is a reasonable expectation from your company. This is different than simply "understanding" expectations and the distinction is important. Often, your prospects, clients and employees will set unreasonable and unattainable expectations if you let them.
Next, build a set of uncomplicated systems for exceeding these expectations. For example, if you own an accounting firm and have set the expectation that taxes will be completed by April 15th, you had better have a system in place to collect your client's information by mid March. In addition, you'll want these systems to be as automated as possible.
Finally, measure your results. In other words, from time to time you need to make certain that you are exceeding the expectations you set. It's also a good idea to review these results with your prospect, client and/or employee on a regular basis. You'll be amazed at how quickly people forget conversations and allow expectations to drift.
There you go – 3 simple steps for helping you exceed expectations. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is choose to execute. Choose wisely.

Postcards from the Field—Part 2!
Posted by Aug 03, 2017 0 comments
This summer, 12 Diversity in Arts Leadership interns from all over the country have descended upon arts nonprofits in New York City for ten weeks to explore and build skills in arts administration and leadership. For 25 years, the Arts & Business Council of New York has been hosting the DIAL internship program as an investment in a more equitable arts management field. This week, we present the final installment of our intern profile series (read the first set of profiles here).
Salwa Meghjee
Arts Host Site: Lincoln Center
School: UC Berkeley
Major(s): English
Dream Vacation: I would love to visit East Africa where my parents grew up
Favorite Ice Cream/Gelato Flavor: I'll eat anything chocolate flavored.
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
So far the program has far exceeded my expectations—the events and programs have been engaging, and I really enjoyed the site visit to Green-Wood Historic Fund, because it was so unusual and beautiful and I'm inspired by the work my fellow intern Asaiah is doing. I really like our intern class as well! My host site has been equally great with amazing co-workers that have been warm and welcoming. I've learned about what it takes to run a large non-profit like Lincoln Center, and have had the opportunity to attend events and shows such as their annual gala. I'm also learning about inclusivity in arts leadership from my supervisor, Jenara.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
I really love this city—there's so much to do! I've spent almost every day doing something different, from finding discounted tickets to Broadway shows to listening to the New York Philharmonic in Central Park. Also, all the food is amazing. The only negative is that I'm spending all my money and I get lost on the streets quite a bit, but that's part of the adventure!
Noah Ezer
Arts Host Site: New York Public Radio—WNYC
School: Brown University
Major(s): Africana Studies and Urban Studies (emphases in visual media)
My Creative Pursuits: I'm vice-president of the Arts Initiative, which brings speakers to Brown and hosts campus-wide art events. I also spent last spring running an artisan cookie start-up with my roommate. I'm also a practicing photographer and sound artist.
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
My expectations for DIAL were to be shown the inner workings of some of New York's preeminent arts non-profits and to be connected with a group of other students engaged in the art world, and so far, they've been informative. NYPR has been challenging and engaging in several unexpected ways, as well. Working on such a small team has given me the opportunity to do varied, important tasks.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
The most exciting thing about NYC is how many events are happening at all times. While it's been difficult finding the better ones (and figuring out how to get there), I've gone to some great art shows and DJ sets so far.
Shannon Lee
Arts Host Site: Asian American Arts Alliance
School: Tufts University
Major(s): Political Science and Economics with a minor in Colonialism Studies
Cool Facts: I am originally from Queens, NY and my family hails from Yangoon, Myanmar. I enjoy podcasts, xiaolongbao, kickboxing, and exploring new places.
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
I expected the program to be busy and exciting, but certainly not to the degree that it has been. My supervisors at the Asian American Arts Alliance have been incredibly thoughtful and attentive in both how they run their operations and how they guide me as I learn to navigate this new environment. I've learned so much about how to reach out to those who need our services most, how to define need, and what constitutes a good program.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
I grew up in Queens and went to high school in downtown NYC, but I am still the absolute worst at directions despite my many years in the city. I will without fail get lost no matter how organized the grid system is—it's always an adventure going on a detour in the city!
Ahmad Saeed
Arts Host Site: Bronx Museum of the Arts
School: Syracuse University
Major(s): Art History
Dream Vacation: I would love to spend like 6 months in Brazil, going to Rio, Sao Paolo, and Brasilia. Mostly to film, learn Portuguese, and learn about the diaspora there.
Favorite Ice Cream/Gelato Flavor: My favorite gelato flavor is mango!
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
Initially, I thought the program would require us to be exceptionally well-versed in the fields we were about to start working in. This was my first time working in curatorial after switching my major to art history so I was a bit nervous. Working for the Bronx Museum has been great and way more fulfilling than I had imagined. I've learned so much about what it takes to put on an exhibition that's been in the process for years. Additionally, I've learned about how the art world works outside of the classroom.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
I'm pretty familiar with the city from my weekend getaway trips from Syracuse; however, living here for the summer I've learned that there really is such a strong queer POC (people of color) community that I can always find events. Even back in Chicago it can be a bit alienating. The worst things have been travelling from the Bronx to Brooklyn for an hour almost 4-5 times a week.
Yidan Zeng
Arts Host Site: TADA! Youth Theater
School: Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design
Major(s): Computer Science and Glass
Dream Vacation: I would love to visit Kerala in India someday.
Favorite Ice Cream/Gelato Flavor: Red Bean popsicles
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
It's been really interesting working at TADA! Youth Theater, because it's broken a lot of my expectations. Mainly ones of working within one role, because within a non-profit, everyone wears so many hats that they keep falling off and being picked up by someone else. I entered as a marketing intern, expecting to do mainly design work, but I've taken on tasks for the Box Office (primarily group sales), pushing me to learn how to do audience management.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
The good: An unlimited metro card in a city that never sleeps. The bad: A country girl missing her sprawling parks and forests. The embarrassing: Just visited Williamsburg for the first time yesterday ... I need to check out Brooklyn more!
Rebecca Ho
Arts Host Site: Kaufman Music Center
School: Binghamton University
Major(s): Management Information Systems and Fine Art
Dream Vacation: Anywhere with hot sun, clear water, and sweet fruit.
Favorite Ice Cream/Gelato Flavor: Ben and Jerry's Half-Baked
What have your expectations for the program been? What have you learned?
My expectation for this program is to discover whether working in the non-profit arts is for me. The first week at Kaufman, I got to meet the amazing leadership team here, but also felt caught off guard since the database is much larger and more complex than any other database I have worked with before. By the second week, I dove head first into the available learning material online and have already developed efficiencies and areas for change.
What's exciting about NYC—the good, the bad, the embarrassing?
Nothing is sexier than the idea of moving into the Big Apple, Empire State, City of New York: in a hot shot, single room in Morningside Heights! Not much is frustrating here … well, except for the moments when I am in my tiny room, sitting at my desk, and as I lean back in my chair ... I hit my head on the frame of my bed. Or, that moment of frustration when I sprint up the stairs to catch the 1 train, just to miss it by a couple of seconds because it took me three tries to swipe my MetroCard. But, these are small prices to pay because the view from my room is beautiful and there is always another train coming.
There are constantly things to try and discover, and though most have mastered the stand-offish and slightly bothered look of a New Yorker, once you start talking, the people here always have interesting lives and tell wonderful stories.

Pilates for cycling
Just over a year ago a friend of mine introduced me to Pilates. Like many people I didn't understand what it was all about. I assumed it was going to be a bunch of old ladies doing a bunch of stretching, chanting and holding hands. Not so…and my muscles are in agony at this moment as proof.
Pilates is all about strength and flexibility of the body by focusing on the core muscle groups. As cyclists we tend to have highly developed legs, but don't pay much attention to upper body muscular conditioning. Most of us think of "upper body conditioning" as weight lifting and adding unwanted bulk. Pilates doesn't do this. After a year of Pilates I can see my body changing shape. I'm longer, leaner and my abs look (almost) like they did when I was 18.
What does a strong core do for cyclists anyway?
Core strength will help transfer more power to the pedals by providing a solid platform for the lower body to push against. Riding with a weak core can be compared to putting a Porsche engine inside a Hyundai chassis. You can have all the power in the world but with a weak chassis the power will dissipate elsewhere.
Pilates exercises are targeted to develop strength in the deep intrinsic muscles of the abdomen and spine, taking pressure off the superficial muscles and promoting more balanced and efficient use. This kind of inner strength training, along with Pilates' focus on alignment and torso stability will support you as a cyclist through those long rides.
The key to Pilates is that each movement requires proper alignment of the pelvis, which in turn requires subtle torso movements that help strengthen the core body muscles important to cycling: transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis, external and internal oblique and erector spinae. Additional benefits include improved muscle flexibility, posture, and balance. No, not as exciting as having a sprint like Renshaw, but important stuff.
Pilates is an excellent way for cyclists to acquire more core strength which helps support the lower back. Many riders complain about lower back pain and this is the first area that fatigues on a long ride or time trial. Because of a cyclist's position they usually have quite rounded shoulders.
Have you noticed the body language of a tired cyclist? The chest drops so that the neck has to bend unnaturally to hold the head up, and all the weight falls into the front of the arms, the deltoids, biceps and forearms.
Pilates also helps you become more self aware about what each part of your body is doing — on and off the bike. This awareness allows you to correct the things that will increase your speed and power and enjoyment on the bike.
When can I fit Pilates into my already hectic training schedule?
Personally I use the days when I'm taking a day off the bike for Pilates. It provides a great low-impact workout, isn't overly exhausting, and has some great stretching built into the sessions. It only takes an hour.
On the list of things that I wish I had done from the beginning of my cycling, Pilates and core training are two of those things that I'm now only beginning to understand the importance of.

Did you know that the SOLI Community follows the Rule of the Great St Augustine? This powerful Bishop, Doctor and Saint of the Church has had a profound effect on the history of consecrated life in the Western Church. Although most people know him by these three esteemed titles and from his writings, particularly his Confessions and writings defending the Faith, many do not realize that St. Augustine was a man who only wanted to live and die as a simple monk. His conversion was closely tied to a deep desire to live a life consecrated to God as a religious. The intensity of his love can be read in his writings and when he is depicted in art you will notice that he is often seen holding a burning heart…his own, aflame with love for the Lord who had sought him and transformed him from being a lover of the world to a lover of Love Himself.
"At first, I was nothing, and He made me; I had been lost, and He sought me out; seeking me, He found me; when I was captive, He redeemed me; having purchased me, He freed me; from being a slave, He made me His brother". ~ St. Augustine

Eminem and Rihanna turned the rapper's Lollapalooza set into a mini-rehearsal for their upcoming joint tour on Friday night (01Aug14) when the Umbrella hitmaker joined her pal onstage in Chicago, Illinois.
Six days before the pair launch the Monster tour at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, Eminem introduced Rihanna as a surprise guest during his Lollapalooza festival headlining set in Grant Park.
They serenaded fans with their collaborations Love The Way You Lie and The Monster, and Rihanna also thrilled by performing Dido's part to the rapper's 1999 hit, Stan.
Eminem's hits-laced set ended on a somber note as he performed Lose Yourself, his signature tune from the movie 8 Mile, as images of his native, bankrupt Detroit, Michigan burning flashed on a screen behind him.

Seadrill newbuild semi hits commissioning delays
Seadrill says that commissioning of the drilling package of the ultra-deepwater semi-submersible rig West Phoenix is taking longer than originally anticipated.
The rig was originally delivered from Samsung Heavy Industries in Korea on March 31 and has a three-year contract with Total Norge for operations in the North Atlantic region. The unit is currently in the port of Las Palmas, Spain, en route to Norway. In Las Palmas, the unit's main drilling equipment systems are undergoing testing and commissioning activities. Because this is taking longer than expected, start-up of operations for Total on the Victoria field has been postponed from late August to October this year.
"We are not pleased with the development, but are working closely with our suppliers in order to ensure effective delivery within the revised timeline," says Alf C. Thorkildsen, CEO of Seadrill Management AS.
Meantime, Seadrill reports that the ultra-deepwater drillship West Polaris, built by Samsung Heavy Industries, will leave Korean waters tomorrow after completing fuelling and some general mobilization activities en route to its first drilling assignment for Exxon in Brazil.
West Polaris has a four-year contract for worldwide exploration activities for Exxon. Exxon will pay Seadrill a pre-agreed dayrate for the transit period in addition to fuel.
"The construction of West Polaris was successfully completed on time and at budget and we are now looking forward to taking the new drillship into what will be our first deepwater drilling operations offshore Brazil," says Mr. Thorkildsen.

Business succession with co-owners or employees can present a significant challenge to the departing business owner or partner, even more so with key employees. Special guest Nate Sachs, a nationally recognized business succession expert, points out that new management often fails and impacts the funding of the buyout, causing the retired owner to reengage in the business. Sachs is interviewed by Steve Savant, syndicated financial columnist and talk show host, on this episode of "Let's Get Down to Business."

U.S. policymakers are bracing for a potential "collapse" of the power structure inside Syria, as the Obama administration closely monitors the intensifying violence in the capital.
Following a bomb attack that left several Syrian regime officials dead, a State Department source forwarded to Fox News an assessment from an independent Middle East analyst who monitors social media in the region and provides occasional guidance to the department.
"Tweet trends on #Damascus indicate something will collapse in #Syria next 36 hours," the message said. "Looks a lot like Tripoli did a year ago."
The note was a reference to the atmosphere in Libya's capital before Muammar Qaddafi's regime was overthrown, and Qaddafi was captured and killed.
It's unclear whether Damascus has entered such a period, but the capital saw an unprecedented attack Wednesday on Bashar Assad's regime, when a bomb ripped through a high-level security meeting and killed at least three officials.
Syrian TV confirmed the deaths of Defense Minister Dawoud Rajha, 65, a former army general and the most senior government official to be killed in the rebels' battle to oust Assad; Gen. Assef Shawkat, the deputy defense minister who is married to Assad's elder sister; and Hassan Turkmani, a former defense minister who died of wounds suffered in the attack.
Also wounded were Interior Minister Mohammed Shaar and Maj. Gen. Hisham Ikhtiar, who heads the National Security Department. State TV said both were in stable condition.
U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, speaking alongside British Defense Minister Philip Hammond on Wednesday, said the escalating violence indicates that the rebels feel emboldened and that the government of Assad is suffering "probably some fragmentation around the edges" as it struggles to keep a grip on power.
The bombing was the harshest blow to the government's inner circle in the 16-month uprising.
Hammond and Panetta both stressed the urgency of finding a political solution that results in Assad's exit.
"The violence there has only gotten worse, and the loss of lives has only increased," Panetta said, "which tells us that this is a situation that is rapidly spinning out of control." He said that is all the more reason for the international community to bring "maximum pressure" on Assad to step down and permit a stable transfer of power.
Though a U.N. Security Council vote was scheduled Wednesday afternoon on a new resolution that would impose sanctions on Syria's government, that vote was postponed at envoy Kofi Annan's request.
Meanwhile, the Obama administration slapped financial sanctions on a huge swath of top members in Assad's government, targeting the prime minister and 28 other cabinet ministers and senior officials.
The Treasury Department announced the sanctions on Wednesday, hours after top Syrian officials were killed in the explosion in Damascus.
Fox News' James Rosen and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

I absolutely love and adore magical, synchronistic moments in life as they are a reminder that a higher power and universal source are always with us, trying to guide and help us in whatever way they can; that's exactly what happened to me just the other day. My mom and sister had come to NYC for a visit and we were taking a stroll through the Manhattan Villages- West, Greenwich and East, when my Mom was "pulled" into a really earthy and amazing jewelry store and during that fun time browsing, shopping and mingling with the saleswoman, my sister asked if their bright fuchsia crystal on display happened to be for sale. It wasn't, but the woman explained that right around the corner was an amazing crystal/rock store that we just had to go in to, so we did.
While this magical crystal store is exactly "my kind of place," I honestly had no intentions of making a purchase and was perfectly happy just browsing along with my sister on her fuchsia rock quest. About five minutes into the shopping experience and without even realizing it was happening, I was pulled to a wicker basket filled with crystals I had never seen before and was completely unfamiliar with. I found myself picking each one up, examining them, holding them up to different light angles and asking this saleswoman random questions like "where did this one come from?" My mom and sister came over to see what had grabbed my attention and before I knew what was even happening, one of these Labradorite crystals was being purchased and the woman then asked me "would you like to know more about this particular stone?" I of course said yes and when she handed me the book on the "Labradorite" page, my jaw dropped and when only halfway through the description I felt a wild surge of energy come up through my feet and run all the way through me. I put the book down and exclaimed without even thinking "I just had an out of body experience." The saleswoman said she sees that happen quite frequently when people get drawn to the crystal/healing properties that are just right for them at the time. It was just the coolest, most unexpected moment to have, as I had zero expectations of going home with a new pet rock yet I know I was 100% guided to that store and pulled to that crystal with a clear purpose.
Here are some of the AWEsome properties of Labradorite:
Thank you Universe and thank you Labradorite!! :)

Gearbox Magazine was instrumental in getting me to parallel. It was a body of work reflecting vision, initiative, execution, and personal development. And three months after starting at LeadMD, I shut it down.
I feel like I'm starting over; like everything I've done in the last decade prepared me to walk through the right door when it finally opened. Now that I'm through that door, my interests have changed. I'm still a gearhead. I'm still interested in publishing. But I'm writing these daily updates with no real sense of where we'll end up.
Today I saw at least three older fellas around town and felt like, "That's what I want to be like when I grow up; slim, shorts and flip-flops, maybe a pony tail… like some kind of post-modern hippie surfer." No idea why I want this, or if it will even prove more than a fleeting notion, but I'm thinking what got me here won't get me there.
Or is this all, as Buddha explained, Dukkah–the fundamental unsatisfactoriness and painfulness of mundane life?
