South Elgin, Norasith tops at Cary-Grove
It seemed like Andre Norasith hardly broke a sweat.
The South Elgin junior made it look easy Saturday afternoon in Cary. Winning 4 straight matches without losing a set, Norasith's dominance paved the way for the Storm to go a perfect 4-0 to win the Cary-Grove boys tennis invitational.
Norasith, a two-time state qualifier, claimed his second straight invitational singles championship and improved to 8-0 on the season.
The South Elgin senior's toughest match of the day came at the hands of Marian Central senior singles Aaron Waters. Norasith, a captain, defeated the Hurricanes' top singles player 6-3, 6-2.
"I trained hard in the off season and worked hard on all aspects of my game," said Norasith. "My ground strokes were solid today. "I felt good today. My goal is to make it to the state finals again and finish in the Top 12. I also want to be a team player and help the team win."
South Elgin coach Brett Johnson has been impressed with Norasith's improvement from last year.
"He has improved in all aspects of his game," said Johnson. "He is moving around better and he is physically better. He has high goals and he is a great team player. He is a very humble player."
It was South Elgin's third straight team title at Cary-Grove.
The Storm (6-2) defeated Cary-Grove 5-0, Marian Central 5-0, Elgin 4-1 and Lakes 5-0.
Along with Norasith, the top doubles team of Francis Manzone-Aayush Patel also won 4 matches on the day.
Cary-Grove went 3-1 on the day. The Trojans defeated Marian Central 3-2, Lakes 5-0 and Elgin 3-2.
The Trojans' three doubles teams of Chris-Rozalis-Kevin Maas, Mitch Harte-Sean Finlon and Thomas Powers-Brandon Kroeger all won 3 matches.
"Our doubles teams did very well, " said Cary-Grove coach Amanda Schueltze. "That seems to be a strength. I was happy with the way we competed today."
Elgin, 1-3 on the day, got 2 wins from the second doubles team of Josh Hegel-John Hoskins.
"We had a tough day," said Elgin coach Larry DeHaan. "We played some tough competition. We can learn from this."
Marian Central, 2-2 on the day, got a great effort from Waters and second singles player Charles Shin, who went 3-1 in the invitational.

Editor's note: Retired Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling, former commander of U.S. Army Europe, served in the Army for more than 37 years and spent more than three years in Iraq. He is a CNN military analyst. The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of the author.
(CNN) -- The major portion of the area Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is attempting to control for the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria is the same place I called home for 16 months of my life.
Commanding Multinational Division North during the "surge" in 2007-08 -- a command that required securing four of the five provinces ISIS now desires to occupy -- allowed me to study the geographic, cultural, infrastructure and political and economic complexities of northern Iraq.
Anyone who supports fighting Baghdadi's ISIS in this area ought to be aware of the challenges the land and the people will present.
During our time there, we countered Iraqi insurgents, elements of al Qaeda in Iraq, homegrown terrorist groups like the 1920s Brigade, Nashqabandia, Ansar Al Sunna and a variety of other gang-like organizations.
During that time, I had more than 30,000 U.S. forces and a significant U.S. Air Force support element contributing to our operations. We also coordinated with an emerging Iraqi army (five divisions, 60,000 men in our area), Iraqi police force (about 40,000 men and a few hundred women in the various cities in the region) and a small and uncommitted Iraqi air force, with pilots training in helicopters and prop planes.
The most important thing I learned is how tough it is to fight a determined enemy there. Another takeaway: To succeed, the government of Iraq must want to provide security in the area more than the United States does.
The four Arab provinces in the area between Baghdad and the borders with Turkey and Syria are about the size of our states of Maryland, Connecticut, Vermont and New Jersey. Ninewa -- with Mosul as the capital city -- shares a 175-mile border with Syria; Ninewa and two other provinces have a 400-mile border with the three Kurdish provinces (also a part of Iraq but viewed by most within their borders as the autonomous Kurdish Regional Government).
The Kurdish provinces, in turn, share a 200-mile border with Turkey and a 300-mile border with Iran.
Four major rivers (Tigris, Euphrates, Diyala and Zaab) and two major mountain ranges (the now-famous Sinjar and the lesser-known but more mountainous Hamrins) break the landscape, which is mostly desert, palm groves and irrigation canals.
There are 10 major cities (five of which are among Iraq's top nine in population), dozens of smaller towns and hundreds of mud-hut villages. More than 11 million people make northern Iraq their home; I would suggest that over 90% do not want ISIS in control.
The land is diverse, and the culture is exceedingly complex. Though I studied this area for months prior to the deployment and then lived, traveled and interacted with the people in the area for over a year and a half, I still had difficulties understanding many cultural dynamics -- even with the advantage of State Department professionals, intelligence analysts from top three-letter agencies and cultural subject matter experts from universities and think tanks at my disposal.
It will take more than just wanting to beat ISIS to win in this area.
Tribes are critical in Iraq, and in the north, there are seven major tribal confederations and over 100 subtribes. While many believe the north is Sunni Arab territory, I found that while many tribes were indeed Sunni, a slightly smaller number were Sunni-Shiite mix, and some were exclusively Shiite.
One tribal confederation -- the Shammars -- is on both sides of the Iraq/Syria border, they have subtribes that are Sunni and Shiite, and their members roam freely across this national boundary with more allegiance to tribal law than to government of Iraq authority.
When we were in northern Iraq, we had evidence that some members of a tribe were assisting in smuggling weapons and foreign fighters from Syria into our area of operations. I would suspect they have provided the same service for ISIS.
When growing and training the Iraqi army and police during our tour, we realized it wasn't enough to recruit individual soldiers or police for the force. We had to garner tribal support.
It becomes obvious why the Iraqi security forces fell in the wake of ISIS advances: Since the central government in Baghdad did not meet the wishes of the tribal sheiks in the north, the leaders' calculation was that it was better to back those who would overthrow the government.
All this gives some indication of the challenges new Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has in winning back the north from the grips of ISIS. Gaining tribal allegiance to support a government counteroffensive against ISIS is an issue al-Abadi understands; it took U.S. forces years to comprehend this critical cultural nuance.
Tribal feuds occur due to clashes over resources in rural areas, control of economic sectors in cities, honor issues (promises of marriage) and crimes committed by members of one tribe against another. The Kurdish region is not immune from tribal loyalties: The Talabanis make up one major political party (the PUK); the Barzanis make up the other (the KDP).
There has been much discussion of the importance of the control of Mosul Dam. But that is only one of many key infrastructure elements. The Bayji Oil refinery, the Kirkuk oil fields, the Mullah Abdullah Power Plant, the Ports of Enty at Rabbiya and Habur Gate, and key religious shrines like the newly renovated Shiite mosque in Samarra are also critical to the political and economic future of Iraq.
Each is probably on ISIS's "control" list, just as the elimination of security forces and other religions is on the "destroy" list of this horrific organization. Controlling or destroying each will result in humanitarian disasters as ISIS broadens its reach.
A more inclusive Iraqi government is currently forming, and hopefully it will gain momentum in addressing a nationalistic approach to countering ISIS.
It will require many things: an Iraqi national will; a condemnation by sheiks and imams -- and other moderates in the Islamic religion -- of the horrors committed by ISIS; an Iraqi and Kurdish military adequately supplied and trained, centrally controlled and supported by the people and not used for sectarian purposes; help from its friends and allies in the region and beyond; and taking advantage of mistakes ISIS is increasingly making in its messaging campaign.
Special operators designating key targets and U.S. air power dropping bombs will contribute, but ultimately only the Iraqis, including the Kurds, can turn this around.

Bhubaneswar: Police have filed a chargesheet in the rape and murder of an eight-year-old girl here in the Odisha capital, an official said on Tuesday.
The 60-page chargesheet was filed Monday in the sessions court against 22-year-old Kiran Sahu, the lone accused.
According to rules, a chargesheet can be filed in such cases within 120 days.
Police have gathered strong evidence against the offender, which are enough for his conviction, Deputy Commissioner of Police Nitinjit Singh told a news agency.
The footage of a closed-circuit television camera (CCTV) that showed the accused leading the victim away has also been submitted, he said.
Police said the accused asked the victim`s family about an address in the city`s Salia Sahi slum. The family sent the Class 4 student with the accused to lead him to the house.
Instead of locating the house, the accused allegedly took the girl to a nearby secluded area and raped her before strangling her to death, police said.
The incident occurred Aug 20, but came to light only after the victim`s family and other residents searched for the girl when she did not return. The residents spotted her body in a nearby area and informed police.
The CCTV camera at the gate of a private college showed the accused leading the victim away. Locals nabbed the offender and handed him over to police. The victim`s family and the accused are daily-wage earners.

Worms, July 31, 2012 – RENOLIT SE has divested its subsidiary RENOLIT Czech s.r.o. in the Czech Republic town of Most. Effective July 27, 2012, the German company Profol Kunststoffe GmbH in Halfing has taken over the production activities of transparent polyolefin films for office supplies. With the acquisition, Profol has supplemented its current product portfolio and strengthened its international presence. Around 70 people have thus changed their employer. It was agreed that the amount of the purchase price would not be divulged.
Simultaneously with the divestment, RENOLIT exits the polypropylene office supply market. The remaining polypropylene film activities of the affected Business Unit RENOLIT EXTRUSION will be integrated into RENOLIT PROFESSION. The core business of RENOLIT PROFESSION is the production and sales of soft and rigid polyvinylchloride films for technical applications and the office supply market.
As a result, the RENOLIT Group optimizes its Business Unit structure to seven entities as of August 1, 2012.
The Czech plant-based merchandise business for further Business Units were spun-off prior to the divestment and transferred to the newly-established sales subsidiary RENOLIT Tábor s.r.o.
The companies:
The RENOLIT Group is an international leader in the manufacture of high-quality plastic films and related products for technical applications. This independent family-owned business, which has been setting benchmarks for quality and innovation for over 65 years, now employs a workforce of approximately 4,500 employees at more than 30 production sites and sales entities.
The Profol Group is a leading manufacturer of cast polypropylene films for the office product and furniture industry as well as for the flexible packaging market. Founded in 1980, the company currently employs about 400 employees worldwide. The five plants in Europe, Asia and USA display manufacturing capabilities of nearly 100,000 tons annually.

Ten thoughts after the Chicago Bears opened preseason Friday with a 34-28 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field.
1. Bring up the topic of Jimmy Clausen with Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera and he's instantly interested.
"How's Jimmy doing?" Rivera asked earlier this week at Carolina's training camp in Spartanburg, S.C. "Does he have a shot?"
No doubt Clausen has a shot in the Bears' competition for a backup role behind Jay Cutler. He looked fluid and probably a little more decisive Friday than his competition Jordan Palmer. Clausen completed 7 of 13 passes for 150 yards, with the big strike being a 73-yard touchdown pass to speedy...

Which authors or what books will pass the ''test of time''
A simple question: Which modern ( 1950 and after)authors and what books do you think ( or even hope) will pass the test of time ? Of course, some bad one might ''pass'' the test by simple popularity but most of them should be deserving one.
If I had to choose only 3 modern authors from the US and UK ( than aren't already considered as classique) I would say Lawrence Block, Neil Gaiman and Iaim Banks. For the french one I am tempted to say Albert Camus and Jean Paul Sartre but the only reason reason they aren't classique is because it's beem not enough time.
What is your list ?

Given the degenerating use of language and the lack of interest in the pursuit of knowledge, will we even have the ability to read the books of the past in the future, or even bother to even read through the entirety of them?

I think degenerating of language has been happening for like, 2000 years, constantly changing to adapt to the times.
Also, I don't think there's a "lack of interest in the pursuit of knowledge" compared to century ago, instead of absorving knowledge from books, it's moved on to connecting with massively large outlets of people through the globilization and internet. The social aspect of knowledge has greately increased, while desire to learn history has decreased, but as a whole sum I think it's actually on the rising.

There is no longer a fascination in the complex unknown. It is just "so long as if works"; the parlour walls are treated as replacement that we are shredding imagination for over-simplicity.

Do you actually have numbers to prove this?
The birth of organizations such as CERN, the internationally collaborated building of LHC, emergence of Doctors Without Borders, Bill Gates' massive effort into bringing science and technology to darker corners of the world... I don't see the world nearly as bleak as you paint it to be. Globlization has brought like-wise people together, and perhaps you don't see the enthusiasm of knowledge in your peers because, they have already found their place?
It's become easier to connect people, but that also seems to create physical isolationism between individuals on a local scale.
As for on-topic matters, literature and history may have taken a hit.
The medium for consumption of such has become less and less bookbased, so yes, novels may face a bleaker future than it ever has in the past.

Eh... just by merely looking through the list of Booker Prize winners, a few names pop up instantly as worthy contenders, such as:
Naipaul and Atwood may be a little less well-known, but Golding and Rushdie are very much in the public's consciousness because of landmark novels like Lord of the Flies and The Satanic Verses, respectively. Ishiguro is also likely to be better remembered as the author of books that have had successful movie adaptations, such as The Remains of the Day and the more recent Never Let Me Go.
Other modern writers who I believe will stand the test of time include Ernest Hemingway (A Farewell to Arms) and George Orwell (1984), the former for firmly popularising the style and form of modern American literature and the latter for his wide range of fiction and political essays. (It helps, of course, that I greatly admire both writers for their use of simple, straightforward language that still manages to strike hard with stark realism.)
In the realm of fantasy, it'll be hard to ignore J.R.R. Tolkien's influence on a now multi-million-dollar gaming industry. Then, there are science fiction writers like Arthur C. Clarke and Philip K. Dick, who imagined worlds and alternative realities so advanced that it's only recently that movie special effects are able to portray them adequately.
The list could go on. And of course, everyone will have his own list of influential writers who would stand the test of time. I hardly think people have stopped reading, though it's certainly true that our attention span is far more fragmented across multiple platforms today.

Apart from those mentioned, I would add William Gibson and Brandon Sanderson to the group. Gibson due to, primarily, Neuromancer which quite accurately foresaw some of the tech of today and still stands strong today, and Sanderson due to his work with Robert Jordan, his magic systems and general popularity of Mistborn.
Vernor Vinge and some Russian authors such as Dmitry Glukhovsky might also stand a chance.
EDIT: I am ashamed I forgot about Clarke and Philip... Derp.
EDIT 2: Might be right at the edge of the 50's, but Isaac Asimov's Foundation series is obvious.

Globalisation and introduction of new technology is a great thing, that I have to agree with. What I don't agree with is the general attitude of people towards technology and knowledge, they seem to think that if technology simplifies the accumulation of knowledge, then the acquisition of knowledge should not be complex.
It isn't true. A single processor with hyper-threading function contains as much complexity as a procedure to operate on the spinal column - McNamara killed many soldiers in Vietnam with the M16 with the kind of thinking that everything can be represented by a single simple system.
The possible future that we face is that language might easily be degraded into Ingsoc (we already have some form of garbage called "political correctness"). The books that pass the test of time would probably be those that are "inventive" and "creative" - Shakespeare didn't become as well known as he is without inventing a few thousand new words.

Though I am surprised that the Japanese animators had yet to pick this up and turn it into a BL fanwork - it is obvious who is the seme and who is the uke.
Though I wish Huxley's idea of the Malthusian belt actually came true.

In that case, I would opt for Roald Dahl, Enid Blyton and Agatha Christie. An entire generation had grown up reading their works alongside Grimms and Andersen.
Which brings to the point that there might be many good writters today that are ignored by publishers because they do not have that mass appeal.

Certainly Roald Dahl, but I don' think Enid Blyton or Agatha Christie will have the staying power. Boh of them were essentially writing genre fiction, and it's rare for that to stick around for more then a generation. Roald Dahl, on the other hand, had an edge to him. His books didn't really fit into a set formula (other then the fact the adults were always horrendously cruel...). They have a similar quality to Louis Carrol's Alice in Wonderland.
Also, why no mention of J.R.R. Tolkien? I'd say his books will stick around (but not his immitators).
In the pre-1950 category I'd also nominate Brave New World.
Also, what about Catch 22?
I'd like to see Isaac Asimov's books continue to be remembered, but I think his works will date, much like Agatha Christie. That and Sci-Fi gets no respect from the literary establishment...
Also, those who think our writing has degenerated has clearly been reading the wrong books.

Agatha Christie had made her mark on the detective fiction with And Then There Were None. If Holmes has the tenacity to stick around, I don't see the reason why Christie doesn't.

Not only that, but Agatha Christie's novels (with the possible exception of And Then There Were None) are all extremely formulaic. She basically wrote the same novel again and again with minor variations. The same also goes for Enid Blyton too, who also wrote largely to formula.
To illustrate, for Poirot there are 33 novels and 50 short stories, all of which are largely the same. Likewise, there ar 21 Famous Five novels, which again are all largely the same. Both of them were too prolific for their own good, and so no single work of theirs can ever stand out.
A similar criticism might be leveled at Conan Doyle with Sherlock holmes, but on the other hand Holmes wrote a larger variety of plots (it wasn't all murder, as it was with Christie), and Doyle placed a much larger emphasis on the relationship between Holmes and Watson, which makes the series more interesting. But I wouldn't even be sure of Conan Doyle having that much staying power either, even though he's already managed to last this long.
I'd say these figures could end up like Edward Bulwer-Lytton, a best selling author in his time who's now obscure.

Big Government posted this funny video of Communists in Madison, Wisconsin, who are convinced that the revolution is just around the corner. First Tunis, then Cairo, then Tripoli–and now, Madison! Christian Hartsock traveled to Wisconsin on behalf of Big Government and was invited to a meeting of the local chapter of the International Socialist Organization. Some of the Communists at the meeting turned out to be representatives of public sector unions.
The video actually reminds me of my youth; I attended meetings a lot like this. Very little has changed, although I don't think the radicals of the 1960s and 1970s were quite this dim.
The young Communist who befriended Hartsock works at Noodles, and he explains his plan to expropriate the guy who founded, and runs, the company. The only other businessmen to whom the Communists refer specifically are–of course–the Koch brothers. They must be proud of the enemies they have made. Here is the video:

Washington, in common with Rome or Qom, periodically defers to the judgments of the impressively robed — the ex cathedra portion of the political season. The constitutional implications of the Supreme Court's health care ruling will be debated until Election Day and dissected beyond it. But it is the court's immigration decision that throws the brightest light on the current presidential race. And the glare is not kind to the challenger.
Some have faulted Mitt Romney for a muddled response to the ruling — a tactical criticism that is largely unfair. It is difficult to be clear about an ambiguous decision. (The constitutionality of Arizona's "papers, please" law seems to depend on the politeness with which police deliver the "please" part.) Romney aides also note that their candidate is uncomfortable with the whole enterprise of a president, or prospective president, cheering or jeering the actions of the Supreme Court in the manner of a pennant race. An admirable reticence.
Romney's whole post-primary approach to immigration — recently summarized in his speech to the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials — has been careful and reasonable. He faults President Obama for election-year urgency on immigration policy after three and a half years of passivity. He highlights the scandal of double-digit Hispanic unemployment. He calls for easier family unification for permanent residents, green cards for those earning advanced degrees and a path to legal status in exchange for military service.
Considered individually, these messages and policies make sense. Taken together, they are a strategic failure. Romney is being careful and reasonable on immigration in the midst of a five-alarm political fire. Latino support for Republicans has been dropping since conservatives blocked President George W. Bush's attempt at comprehensive immigration reform. Romney accelerated the descent by pledging to veto the Dream Act as president. His polling among Hispanics now bumps along at about 25 percent.
On immigration, Obama's boldness of late has been Napoleonic. The French emperor is hardly a model for a democratic statesman. But he knew how to throw his strength at an opponent's weak point at a decisive moment — which Obama did with his mini-Dream Act. It was a questionable use of executive power. But after weeks of political stumbles, Obama proved capable of an audacious stroke. And it is not likely to be his last.
The contrast is instructive. The Obama campaign is often tactically weak — an exercise in endless speeches, overmatched spokesmen, blame-shifting and expectations-lowering. But the president is capable of ambitious repositioning.
The Romney campaign, in contrast, is focused and tactically competent. Romney is a strikingly better general election candidate than he was in the primaries.
But it should concern Republicans that the Romney campaign has shown little appetite for strategic boldness — the ability to shift an argument, exploit a weakness or appeal to an unexpected audience. Immigration is the most urgent example, but there are others. What innovative policy has Romney announced to reassure suburban women? Or to drive home his appeal to Catholic voters, whom Obama seems intent on alienating? Or to convince working-class voters that he is committed, not just to economic freedom, but to upward mobility?
This absence of strategic ambition may reflect a strategy — that the election should only be a referendum on the Obama economy. If so, it is a serious mistake.
A challenger who does not shape his own image will have it shaped for him. A candidate who does not compete on his opponent's home turf will often be struggling on his own.
In a stalled economy, in a period of public discontent, in a dead heat less than five months out, Romney is primed for a victory in November. But it won't come by default.

Jennifer Bunce couldn't sit through one more conference call about conference calls. After studying journalism in college, Bunce was in her fifth year working at a public relations firm as a corporate event planner, and was sick of it. Her artistic nature was getting the better of her, as was her penchant for baking. Her job was suffocating her creativity.
"It just seemed like I was going through meeting after meeting about planning more meetings," she said. "Something had to change."
Seven months of culinary school and a three month internships later, Bunce opened the Hudson Cakery, at first working out of her own kitchen and then for two years at a rented catering space.
Today, she is one of Hudson County's premier cake makers, the head of a booming business located on Willow Avenue in Weehawken.
"I always wanted to do something that combined art and baking," she said. "I could have really focused on all baked goods, but it was always about cakes for me."
"I could have really focused on all baked goods, but it was always about cakes for me." - Hudson Cakery owner Jennifer Bunce
"We're not really a retail business; everything is made to order," she said. "We don't have a book with all of the cakes we make and prices for each."
Because of this, every cake Bunce makes is unique in both taste and design.
The craziest thing she's ever been asked to create?
"We just had a bride-to-be in last week who asked us to create maple syrup and bacon cupcakes," she said. "Since the boom of television shows about cake makers, people are starting to realize they can ask for some pretty nutsy stuff."
The 'cake boom'
Television's "cake boom," as Bunce called it, began in 2006 with The Food Network's "Ace of Cakes," a show that featured Duff Goldman's Baltimore bakery, Charm City Cakes. Since then, around nine shows have aired on various networks, including Hudson County's own "Cake Boss," which features Hoboken's Carlo's Bakery and its charismatic owner, Buddy Valastro.
Bunce said that if anything, the "cake boom" was good for business.
"It seems like it's dying down now, but it was pretty nuts for a while," she said. "There was definitely a feeling that all the TV shows had upped the ante."
The ante, as it turned out, was signaled by the rise of amateur cake makers, all who claimed to be the next big thing. The cream, as it was, rose to the top.
"Because everyone was trying to do it as a hobby, I think it made us look better," said Bunce.
Flavors galore
After that, Bunce's cakes quickly earned a reputation as some of the freshest, tastiest and most aesthetically pleasing in the tri-state area. Delivering anywhere within a three hour drive, The Hudson Cakery offers a shockingly wide array of flavors.
In terms of the cake itself, the possibilities range from the classics, such as chocolate fudge, white winter vanilla, red (or pink) velvet, banana bread and lemon, to more outlandish flavors like pumpkin, almond, ginger spice and funfetti. By special request, Bunce can concoct a champagne flavored cake.
"The chocolate is classic, but it's really, really good," said Bunce. "I think it goes great with our salted caramel filling."
Along with the salted caramel buttercream, the Cakery offers 17 varieties of filling, including fruits like raspberry, cherry, strawberry, pineapple, and banana pudding, as well as custards in nearly every imaginable flavor. Bunce said one of the more popular choices is the chocolate peanut butter cup.
"If you're a fan of Reese's, this is basically the filling you're going to want," she said.
Complicated process
Despite having hired a baker, a sugar artist, and several interns to assist her in the process, Bunce said she can hardly ever take her eyes off a cake.
"I'm too paranoid," she said. "No matter how much you plan, you can never be too careful."
Surprisingly, Bunce said that a cake's actual delivery is the most stressful part of her job.
"The baking, the art, all of that can be difficult, but it's not exactly stressful," she said. "But getting the cake in the box, then into the truck, and then getting it to wherever it's going can be nervewracking."
From the time it's ordered until its delivery, Bunce said, the cake business is a labor of love.
"You're definitely not in this business for the money; that's for sure," she said. "But I love it. Every day is something different."
Indeed. According to the Cakery's website, if you can dream it up, Bunce can bake it. She can even make something without eggs or gluten-free. It almost seems as if they sky's the limit, but not exactly.
"We can't do sugar free," she joked. "It's just impossible." Learn more about the shop at HudsonCakery.com

Additionally Clearpath is producing several major events in LA later this summer, including a kick-off event for the BET Awards in June. "A number of our projects and strategic relationships are increasingly based in LA and the opportunity to set up a project base in this location just made sense at this point," said Sean Brescia, founder and managing partner at Clearpath.
Clearpath has two divisions—Clearpath Productions specializing in strategy, creative and production for high profile events and communications media, and Clearpath Entertainment specializing in the development, production and management of events, entertainment, brand experiences, destination locations and exhibitions, as well as artist management.
David Christensen, a managing partner at Clearpath who heads up the artist management and exhibition efforts for the company said, "With a major label artist currently recording in LA we'll find our management efforts focused significantly here over the next several months. We are also developing funding and strategic relationships around our Sports Immortals Mobile Experience and many of those meetings are happening here as well."
The "Sports Immortals Mobile Experience" is a traveling exhibition based around one of the largest and most valuable collections of sports memorabilia in the world (www.sportsimmortals.com). Clearpath is also currently producing an event for the White House Correspondents Dinner in April.
The Wiltern Theatre offices will be located alongside longtime strategic partner SizzlePitch. Clearpath also has offices in Baltimore and Washington, DC. For more information on Clearpath visit www.clearpathentertainment.com or email email@example.com.
