With 100 Days To Go, London 2012 Marketers Launch Campaigns In Earnest
By Barry Janoff
April 19, 2012: Team USA's marketing partners rallied around the flag in New York, literally, on April 18 as the countdown to the 2012 Summer Olympics hit the 100-days-out milestone. It was a party to almost rival New Year's Eve in Times Square, featuring Olympic athletes, hopefuls, executives from the U.S. Olympic Committee, sponsors and new marketing activation.
The event was dubbed Hilton HHonors' Road to London Celebration, but came complete with presence from other USOC and International Olympic Committee marketing partners including Samsung, AT&T, British Petroleum, AmeriTrade, Coke, The Hartford, Omega and McDonald's.
Among the firms that have launched Olympic-themed campaigns in connection with the 100-day countdown are Proctor & Gamble ("Thank You Mom"), Oakley ("Beyond Reason"), McDonald's ("Champions of Play"), Citi ("Every Step"), Kellogg's ("From Great Starts Come Great Things"), BMW and Chobani. Other companies will unveil Summer Game-centric campaigns in the coming weeks.
In addition, the USOC unveiled "Raise our Flag," a program that allows anyone in the U.S. to support Olympic and Paralympic athletes by contributing $12 per stitch on an American flag that will accompany the U.S. Olympic Team to the 2012 Olympic Games.
According to the USOC, people who visit a dedicated Web site can purchase one or many stitches now through July 12, 2012. Every purchased stitch will receive a number and will be honored on the site's Donor Wall, where it can be dedicated to a friend, family member or Team USA athlete. It is being supported by Facebook and Twitter, under the auspices of the USOC and lead agencies Y&R, VML and Cohn & Wolfe.
"The support of Olympic fans and Americans everywhere is what makes our Olympic dreams possible," said Lisa Baird, CMO for USOC. "The campaign is critical to us because, unlike many countries, the U.S. Olympic Team receives no financial support from the government. We rely on the American people and corporate sponsors to support our Olympic athletes. 'Raise Our Flag' not only drives awareness, it tangibly embraces and empowers people to be the team behind the team."
Marketing partners embraced the moment, as well. Chobani handed out samples of its traditional and new flavors of Greek yogurt, the latter including Apple Cinnamon, Blood Orange, Passion Fruit and, for kids, Champions Vanilla Chocolate Chunk and Orange Vanilla. Chobani has retagged its labels to include its status as an official sponsor of Team USA and the 2012 Games.
Topps was giving away 20,000 cards from its upcoming set, the first dedicated to U.S. Olympians since a set from rival Upper Deck for the 1996 Games in Atlanta. Featured are such top athletes as Michael Phelps, Hope Solo and Allyson Felix.
"This is a really exciting time for Topps," said Joe Ribando, the iconic card company's director of player licensing. "We have new product coming out for baseball and the NFL. The set for the London Games is special because with the athletes and hopefuls being featured it is a great way for people to hold a piece of the Olympics in their hands."
Kellogg's offered for photo ops an oversized box featuring swimmer Rebecca Soni, who is one of eight members of Team Kelloggs. The others, who also will be featured on cereal boxes, include Michael Landers (table tennis), Dwight Phillips (track and field), Summer Sanders (swimming legend), Casey Tibbs (Paralympic track and field), Juan Agudelo (soccer), Kerri Walsh (beach volleyball) and Jordyn Wieber (gymnastics).
The USOC's "Raise Our Flag" effort was officially launched by Olympic legends Greg Louganis (diving), Carl Lewis (track & field) and Shannon Miller (gymnastics) and 2008 gold medalist Allyson Felix (track & field). They dedicated the first stitch in the flag to "all U.S. Olympians and Paralympians."
"The Raise our Flag campaign gives every American the opportunity to show their support for the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams in a meaningful way while having a direct, positive impact on the athletes," said Scott Blackmun, CEO for the USOC. "Unlike many of the teams our athletes will compete against in London this summer, the U.S. Olympic Team receives no government funding and our athletes rely on individual donations and corporate support. This program invites every American to become a member of the team behind the team."
In the U.K., the London Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games unveiled the motto for the 2012 Games — "Inspire a Generation" — during a day-long series of nationwide events.
According to LOCOG chairman Sebastian Coe, "With 100 days to go to the start of the Games, millions of people are getting ready to do the best work of their lives and welcome the world this summer . . . Expectations are high, and we won't disappoint."

|New TV Network To Take On TiVo and Other DVRs
|Thursday, 20 May 2004
of Americans now have digital video recorders (otherwise known as DVRs
or PVRs) thanks to TiVo, ReplayTV and cable and satellite providers who
offer PRVs in their satellite receiver boxes. Users who have PVRs are
now calling the physical act of recording shows with their hard drive
recorder "TiVo-ing" even if the service and hardware unit they are
using is not actually a TiVo. This is remnisciant of how photocopying
has become "Xeroxing" to many consumers and many people who blow their
noses think they are using a Kleenex, when they are in fact most likely
using a facial tissue. As much as consumers with PVRs rave about being
able to "TiVo" their favorite shows and skip the commerials, TV
executives and ad agencies are less excited. Free television content is
created so that networks can sell ads. Now that model is being
challenged by the progress of technology but a new TV network thinks
they have the answer.
Ripe Entertainment is introducing a free "on-demand" cable network,
called RipeTV, which will have advertising embedded into its shows. It
has seven different types of advertising that will not be able to be
fast-forwarded through when recorded on a PVR. RipeTV's CEO, Ryan
Magnussen, calls it "TiVo-proof."
New ads include a 3-D animated advertiser logo or graphic to open and close the show, an animated logo occupying the lower third of the screen, a "video skin" or graphic frame with the advertisers brand framed around the show, video billboards in the lower third, strategically placed spots and long-form commercials. The ads are more like magazine advertisements, in a video magazine setting.
Consumers might not like a "TiVo proof" TV network unless the content is truly fantastic. Much like Internet surfers can block pop under ads, TiVo users feel it is their right to skip commercials.
The first RipeTV network to be launched in the fourth quarter of 2004, will target men ages 18 to 34. Content on the network will include: video magazines, reality shows, extreme sports and entertainment reviews. New episodes for each show will debut online and on-demand every Monday.
All of RipeTV's content will exist on VOD platform and broadband. The internet interaction will allow viewers to vote, in order to change the programming, and put their favorite shows on the prime slots. The RipeTV platform also has access to 400 hours of other content such as DVDs and short animation pieces. The content – 10 hours per month – will be tailored for the on-demand platform at about 8–12 minutes each.
RipeTV did focus marketing groups and these groups did not find the ads disruptive. RipeTV offers customer navigational solutions for its distribution partners, including graphic design through to engineering a custom interface.

Antivirus software pioneer John McAfee is on the run from police in Belize. They say they want to question him about the murder of his neighbor. He says they want to kill him, and that the police were the ones who murdered his neighbor.
(You recognize McAfee's name, by the way, because it he shares it with the security software firm he founded in the 1980s and which recently sold to Intel for ~$7 billion).
You might imagine that, being on the run, McAfee would be keeping a low profile, hoping that the police would just forget about him.
But that is not what he is doing!
He is actually keeping a blog.
It's called "The Hinterland: The Official Blog Of John McAfee," and the domain is whoisjohnmcafee.com.
It's full of weirdness.
For example, here is a section where McAfee describes how he has disguised his appearance so that police and witnesses in Belize will not recognize him if they see him:
The first day I colored my full beard and my hair light grey- almost white. I darkened the skin of my face, neck and hands carefully with shoe polish and put on an LA Saints baseball cap with the brim facing backwards and tufts of the front of my hair sticking out unkempt through the band. I stuffed my cheeks with chewed bubble gum stuck to the outside of my upper and lower molars – making my face appear much fatter. I darkened and browned my front teeth. I stuffed a shaved down tampon deep into my right nostril and died the tip dark brown – giving my nose an awkward, lopsided, disgusting appearance. I put on a pair of ragged brown pants with holes patched and darned. I wore an old, ragged long sleeve shirt. I donned an old Guatemalan style sarape and toted a bag containing a variety of Guatemalan woven goods. I adjusted my posture so that I appeared a good six inches shorter than my actual height and slowly walked up and down the beach with a pronounced limp, pushing an old single speed bicycle and peddling my wares to tourists and reporters using a broken English with a heavy Spanish accent.
Last week, McAfee was telling reporters that if police caught him they would kill him. He still seems to believe this, and his latest post is ominous. It is titled: "If I am caught."
If I am captured, this blog will continue. I have pre-written enough material to keep this blog alive for at least a year. In addition, the administrator, Chad, will continue to monitor comments. He will administer the reward and post any information received. In truth my continued involvement from this point is irrelevant.
In the event that I am captured, please continue to support this cause. It is a just cause and it needs International attention.
Thank you.

Consumer Spending Jumps, Pointing to Spring Rebound
Personal Consumption Saw Largest Gain Since August 2009, While Personal Income Rose 0.5%
WASHINGTON—Consumer spending rose in March at the fastest pace in nearly five years, providing fresh evidence that the U.S. economy gained strength with the arrival of spring.
Personal consumption—spending on everything from electricity to sliced bread—surged a seasonally adjusted 0.9% from February, the Commerce Department said Thursday. That was its largest gain since August 2009. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had predicted a 0.6% rise in consumer spending....

Top Undergrad Majors at the Best Medical Schools
Wednesday, July 19, 2017
Biological science is among the most popular undergrad majors at top-ranked medical schools, U.S. News data show.
Megan Schwehr always knew she wanted to be a doctor, even though she didn't decide on her major until her sophomore year of college.
"I wanted to pick a major that helped me get there," says the 22-year-old, who initially thought a major in biology would serve that purpose. "I actually enjoyed chemistry more than I thought I would, and it seemed to be a better fit for what I needed to get into med school – so I switched to biochemistry."
The Idaho native finished her biochemistry degree with a minor in mathematics at Linfield College in Oregon last December and was accepted at the University of Washington School of Medicine, which ranks No. 1 among the 2018 Best Medical Schools for Primary Care.
"The classes I took catered to the MCAT perfectly," she says. "One concept that was on the test I literally learned in my molecular biology class the day before the exam."
Schwehr isn't the only premed student who studied a biology-related discipline to be accepted at a competitive medical program.
In fact, more than 40 percent of premed students accepted at the top 11 – due to ties – Best Medical Schools for Primary Care or the top 10 Best Medical Schools for Research in 2016 studied a major with a biological science emphasis, according to data submitted to U.S. News by 113 ranked medical schools in an annual survey.

1. Kobe Bryant (LAL)
2009-10 Stats: 27.0 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 5.0 APG, 1.6 SPG
Kobe Bryant is a five-time NBA Champion, two-time NBA Finals MVP, 2008 Gold Medalist, 2007-08 NBA MVP, 12-time All-NBA selection, 12-time NBA All-Star, 10-time All-Defense selection, four-time NBA scoring champion and owner of the second-best single-game scoring performance in NBA history (81 points). The accomplishments speak for themselves, and with Bryant still in his prime, they are far from finished accumulating.
Coming off back-to-back championships, Bryant is preparing to make a run at the second three-peat of his career (the first time of course happening alongside Shaquille O'Neal from 2000-2002). The last superstar to pull that off was, you guessed it, Michael Jordan (1991-1993, 1996-1998).
LeBron James may have won the last two league MVP awards, but Bryant has taken home the last two NBA Finals MVP awards and is, in my estimation, still undoubtedly the top player in the game. He is as complete of a player as we have seen this decade. As a scorer, nobody is as lethal or technically polished. From his silky smooth jumper to his effectiveness in the post, to his uncanny ability to create separation to his top-notch use of the pivot, Bryant has every aspect of offensive basketball down pat. Defensively, as noted above with his 10 All-Defensive Team selections, he is of the elite category as well. If you need a bucket in crunch time, I dare you to put the ball in anyone else's hands but Kobe's.
The thing that sets him apart from everyone else, however, has nothing to do with his god-given talents. It is his cut-throat, absolute killer instinct that puts him in a class of his own. He doesn't come to the arena just looking for a W, he steps foot on the hardwood looking for blood. In the offseason and on off-days, he works harder than any player on the planet to fine-tune his skills, maintain tip-top physical condition and solidify his top-notch basketball IQ with his out-of-this-world workout regimen and addiction to film.
Once upon a time, Kobe's biggest enemy was himself. His own agenda put himself before the team at times throughout his development, and he was far from the ideal teammate. Once he realized that he wasn't going to win a title by his lonesome, he made the necessary changes to become a better teammate and step up as a leader. Ever since, he has been impossible to bet against. There are a few guys across the league that can challenge Kobe's per-game production on the stat sheet, but nobody is on his level. He will go down as one of the greatest players to ever play the game, and his legacy still has years to go before it is officially cemented.
2. Dwyane Wade (MIA)
2009-10 Stats: 26.6 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 6.5 APG, 1.8 SPG, 1.1 BPG
Kobe Bryant and LeBron James are unanimously deemed the top two players in basketball, but the next name that often comes up in the discussion is Dwyane Wade. After missing 31 games in back-to-back seasons, the 2008 Olympian took the league by storm in 2008-09, putting himself back in the MVP discussion and reminding us all of just how good the 2006 NBA Finals MVP was.
With something to prove, Wade posted a career-high 30.2 PPG, which led the league, along with 7.5 assists, five rebounds, 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks per contest on the year, earning him more MVP votes than anyone not named LeBron. Last season, he followed up on his career-year nicely, producing approximately 27 points, five rebounds and seven assists per game.
Despite his rejuvenation, Wade has not been able to get past the first round of the playoffs since raising the Heat's first franchise banner four years ago. With the moves made this summer to bring in the likes of two-time MVP LeBron James and five-time All-Star Chris Bosh, postseason advancement should no longer be a problem in South Beach.
Wade is a special talent with ideal charisma to take on the role of one of the league's ambassadors. Blessed with a strong frame, outstanding athleticism and explosiveness, "Flash" has maximized his physical gifts and emerged as one of the most dynamic guards of the decade. His remarkable first step, uncanny ability to weave through the lane, relentlessness, deceptive attack, body control, automatic mid-range jumper, defensive impact (especially on the baseline), toughness, clutch performance, ability to make his teammates better and leadership put Wade in a group that very few players are able to reach.
We all know what Dwyane Wade is capable of on the big stage. Now that he's finally got himself some serious help down in Miami, it's only a matter of time before we get to see Wade play at the highest level once again. At his best, he is as good as anyone.
3. Brandon Roy (POR)
2009-10 Stats: 21.5 PPG, 4.4 RPG, 4.7 APG
When Brandon Roy entered his name into the 2006 NBA Draft pool, the consensus on his prospects were that he is a good all-around player that does everything well, but the knock on him was that he doesn't do anything great. Most saw a good pro in Roy, but not a star or a guy that was going to lead a team.
Boy, were they wrong. In just his second year as a pro, Roy was named to the 2008 Western Conference All-Star squad, and he has not been left off since. He is the real deal. Not only is he a guy you can trust with the basketball and rely on for production, he has embraced his role as the team's leader and has not disappointed as the face of the Portland Trail Blazers franchise. He has a winning attitude, works hard, plays unselfishly and leads by example both on and off the court.
As for his game, the best word I can come up with to describe it is "smooth." He makes the game look so easy. He's not an athletic freak nor is he the quickest or strongest guy on the floor, but he is very skilled, fundamentally sound and intellectually ahead of most as a basketball player.
Much like his 2006 pre-draft scouting reports claim, Roy does everything well. At 6'6", he can handle the ball and create off the dribble like a point guard, he can shoot the rock, he can create his own shot any time he wants to, he has a knack for cutting in and out of defenses on his way to the rack, he is a big time clutch performer and he makes everybody around him better. He doesn't quite have the athletic features of a Bryant or Wade, but he is without a doubt a terrific leader and one of the more polished players in the league. If Portland can stay healthy, expect big things from Roy in the postseason at some point.
4. Joe Johnson (ATL)
2009-10 Stats: 21.3 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 4.9 APG, 1.1 SPG
The summer of 2010 was all about LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, but who would have thought that Joe Johnson would have been the highest paid of them all? While Miami's eventual "Big Three" decided to take pay cuts to form a super-team, Joe Johnson was more than happy to sign a lucrative six-year, $119 million max deal to stick around in Atlanta. Whether he warrants that kind of contract is up for debate, but all dollars and cents aside, he is one heck of a player.
Ever since he left Phoenix in the summer of 2005 to become the face of the Atlanta Hawks, Johnson has flourished. As a five-year Hawk, Johnson has held accumulative averages of 21.7 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, good enough to land him four straight Eastern Conference All-Star appearances.
Johnson possesses a diverse perimeter game. He's got great size for a wing (6'7", 240 lbs.), can shoot the lights out, has a nice mid-range game, has the ball handling and passing ability to allow him to play three positions, he can body up and apply pressure defensively when he wants to (isn't always the case) and he is very capable of off for 35+ when he gets hot. Johnson is one of the top wings in the game, and having just turned 29 years of age in June, he's got a few All-Star caliber years left in him.
As good as he is, however, he's got something to prove. He has got to become a bit more consistent and produce in the playoffs if he wants to erase the financial hurt from his new contract. Hawks fans won't forget about his ghostlike performance in last season's Eastern Conference Semifinals until he delivers in the future.
5. Manu Ginobili (SA)
2009-10 Stats: 16.5 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 4.9 APG, 1.4 SPG
Manu Ginobili is everything right with professional athletes today. In a league where so many star-caliber players are caught up on getting their numbers, being the man, signing a max contract and going for all the individual accolades, Ginobili is perfectly fine with accepting a smaller role and coming off the bench for the betterment of the team. If he wanted to, he very well could have placed demands for playing time, touches or a trade if the team was unwilling to accommodate him. He could have signed with a less prominent team as the number one perimeter option and been every fantasy basketball player's dream wing.
Instead, he chose to stick around in San Antonio, playing under 30 minutes per game in a sixth man role because that's what Greg Popovich wanted him to do for the team. Three titles later, the plan seemed to have worked out for everybody, and that's alright with Manu. He doesn't care if he scores 25 points per game or plays 40 minutes every night, as long as he's happy playing for a winning team, that's all that matters. That's how it should be; unfortunately that kind of attitude from a player of Ginobili's caliber is extremely rare in American pro sports.
I could go on about his character all day long, but let's talk about some of the reasons he has reached that star status as a player. First of all, he plays with serious heart, but he's got the skills to back it up as he is a terrific shooter with three-point range, a very smart player that makes great reads on both ends, an excellent passer, super-crafty and a real playmaker down the stretch of games. He is certainly more athletic than he looks, as well.
Quite frankly, more All-Star players should be like Manu Ginobili, but the rarity of that breed makes him very easy to appreciate.
6. Stephen Jackson (CHA)
2009-10 Stats: 21.1 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 3.6 APG, 1.6 SPG
"Captain Jack" draws mixed reviews, and there seems to be no happy medium. You either love him or you hate him. If you hate him, it has a lot to do with his off-court reputation of a careless thug. However, many people around Jackson will tell you that he is a misunderstood individual. He's fiery for sure, but he is a very passionate basketball player that loves to play and wants to win. Despite his alleged character flaws, his teammates typically enjoy going to war with him (no, that doesn't mean throwing punches with him in the midst of a notorious players vs. fans brawl).
In November, Golden State shipped Jackson to Charlotte, where he responded very well to the much-needed change of scenery. With Jackson in the lineup, Larry Brown's Bobcats held a 41-32 record, helping them to 44-38 overall, good for the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference and the franchise's first playoff berth since it arrived as an expansion team in 2004.
Jackson came in and gave the Bobcats just what they needed. Before the trade, the team was defending well but could not seem to put the ball in the basket. As a result, they won just three of the first nine games on the schedule. With a breath of fresh air, Jackson turned the whole season around for the young and scrappy 'Cats by providing them with a go-to scoring option with championship experience. Appearing in 72 games for Charlotte last season, the team's new leader put up 21.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game.
Jackson struggled with the rest of his team in the club's first playoff series in franchise history, as Orlando ran the table on them and completed a clean 4-0 sweep. Regardless, it was a step in the right direction for the franchise and Jackson was the biggest part of the team's success. Say what you want about some of his decisions throughout the years, which is understandably concerning at the very least, the guy can ball. His shot selection is undoubtedly questionable at times, but he fills it up and makes an impact on both ends of the floor. Acquiring Jackson was one of Michael Jordan's best moves yet.
One man's trash is another man's treasure.
7. Tyreke Evans (SAC)
2009-10 Stats: 20.1 PPG, 5.3 RPG, 5.8 APG, 1.5 SPG
Tyreke Evans took the league by storm in his inaugural professional season, holding per-game averages of over 20 points, five rebounds and five assists per game. The only other players to do that in NBA history? Oscar Robertson, LeBron James and the one and only Michael Jordan. It doesn't get any better than that. Evans' rookie season wasn't just impressive, it was historic.
Standing at 6'5" with a very strong and filled out 220-pound frame, Evans bullies opposing guards with his bulk and methodical attack off the dribble. He doesn't necessarily burn you with first-class quickness, but he is certainly athletic enough to put defenders on his hip. Once he gets that step on you and blocks your lane with his body, you'd better hope your second line defense has your back because it's over.
Evans is a born scorer who is very crafty around the rim, can get a shot off just about any time he wants, is a strong finisher that routinely converts after contact and has a steadily improving jump shot from 15 feet and out. He doesn't have three point range at this point, but if he can develop the 15-20 foot jumper ala Dwyane Wade or Derrick Rose, he'll be as hard to guard as anyone on the perimeter.
With his size, length and sound defensive mechanics, he can guard up to three positions and heavily impact the game on both ends of the floor. That leads to his next-best asset – versatility. Evans can match up with virtually anyone on the perimeter defensively and possesses the necessary ball skills to be trusted with the offense and give you great minutes at the point.
Some might disagree with the fact that Evans was included in my two-guard list as opposed to Thursday's point guard rankings. The fact of the matter is that he can play the 1 or the wing, but it came down to personal preference. I personally see Evans as more of Dwyane Wade-esque combo guard that is best-suited on the wing as a scorer that can make plays, as opposed to a guard that juggles the responsibilities of a premier scorer and running the offense. Dwyane Wade played a lot of point as a rookie in 03-04, too, but they concluded that he would get the most out of his offensive talents on the wing. I see the same with the 2010 Rookie of the Year. Besides, Evans did play 37% of Sacramento's shooting guard minutes last year, while only taking up 28% of their minutes at the point.
Regardless of positional classification, he is a superstar in the making. Like any 20-year-old, he's got to work hard, pay attention to what the coaching staff tells him, grow as a leader and learn the ins and outs of the league, but he's got a very, very bright future. As long as he can avoid hitting something at 120 mph speeds in his car, Evans will be a force to be reckoned with for a long time.
8. Ray Allen (BOS)
2009-10 Stats: 16.3 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 2.6 APG
At 35 years of age, Ray Allen's recently signed two-year, $20 million contract may very well be his last, but Jesus Shuttlesworth isn't done yet. Scoff at his age if you'd like, but he remains one of the better-conditioned guys in the league and still has the prettiest stroke out there. Of course, he has regressed from his prime years and is hardly as explosive as he once was, but he still gets the job done and drives opposing wings crazy with his route-running mastery. Oh, and he will still occasionally surprise you with an out-of-nowhere posterization.
Allen has struggled with some inconsistencies of late, but he is still more than capable of going off, as we all witnessed in Game 2 out in L.A., where he set an NBA Finals record by knocking down eight triples in one game (seven of them coming in the first half). The 14-year veteran may require more buckets of ice water than he used to, but those veins of his consist of the same thing he cools his feet with (yes, I realize how weak that forced metaphor turned out).
On top of his sweet stroke and big time clutch performances, Allen is a true professional with many leadership qualities. He is an absolute class act who works hard every day, mentors his younger teammates and maintains remarkable focus in any situation.
Allen may or may not need a walker to get from the locker room to the bus, but on the court, he is still one of top two-guards in the game.
9. Monta Ellis (GS)
2009-10 Stats: 25.5 PPG, 4.0 RPG, 5.3 APG, 2.2 SPG
With mopeds out of the equation in the summer of 2009, Monta Ellis was able to focus on his game and health in order to get his career back on track. The Mississippi native came back better than ever, posting career highs in scoring (25.5 PPG, 6th in NBA), assists (5.3 APG), steals (2.2 SPG, 2nd in NBA) and minutes (41.4 MPG, 1st in NBA).
As far as talent is concerned, there is no denying Ellis' spot on a list consisting of the top 10 guards. However, the issue with Ellis isn't talent or production. He is at a difficult spot in the sense that he cannot play the point guard position, as he does not have the ability to run a team and make his teammates better. On top of that, standing 6'3'' at 180 lbs., he is not big enough to defend most two-guards around the league. Regardless, he is a lightning bolt that can really put the ball in the basket whether it be in transition, off penetration or with his deadly mid-range J, which has developed into one of the league's best. Don Nelson's system is perfect for Ellis as it allows him to play free at full speed every night; the numbers speak for themselves.
His game might look a bit prettier than it truly is as the current poster boy of "Nellie Ball," but he is a talent. He is an undersized scorer whom I'd have a hard time handing the keys to the car as a point guard, but with his current situation, that isn't much of an issue.
Speaking from a talent standpoint, he should probably be another spot ahead on this list, but he's got some flaws that have been somewhat covered up out in Oakland, and he's got some maturing to do. If I'm a starting a franchise, it'd be difficult to pass on Ellis after the top seven names on the list, but if I'm a team trying to win now, give me Ray Allen over Ellis for one year.
10. Jason Richardson (PHX)
2009-10 Stats: 15.7 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 1.8 APG
It took Jason Richardson a while to really get his groove going this past season, but once he found his rhythm, he was fantastic. He started the year in good form, but experienced struggles with his shooting consistency in December and January, where he shot roughly 42% from the floor at just about 13 points per game.
From the All-Star break on, however, he was the J-Rich that we all know and love. Throughout the last 29 games of the regular season, Richardson put up just under 18 points per contest at a highly efficient 51.3% shooting mark to go along with hitting a couple treys per game at 45.6% from beyond the arc.
Richardson's real outburst came at the perfect time, as he put together a remarkable postseason to help the Suns get back to the Western Conference Finals. Through three playoff rounds, the former Michigan State Wolverine produced 19.8 PPG at efficient clips of 50.2% from the field and 47.5% from three-point territory. Highlighting his big time playoff run was a 42-point effort in Game 3 of Phoenix's first round matchup vs. Portland, in which he buried eight of his 12 attempts from the outside.
Richardson's game hasn't changed. He is a great athlete and a big time shot maker/finisher that can put up some serious offensive numbers in a hurry.
Honorable Mention: John Salmons (MIL)
Salmons has quietly developed into a very skilled and productive all-around player. He is a scoring threat both off the dribble and from the outside, can make plays for others and has really been underrated as a perimeter defender. He does a solid job staying in front of his man and disrupting developments with his long arms.
At this point in their careers, Salmons produces more than Vince Carter. While Carter holds the advantage as a shooter and passer (an often underrated aspect of Vince's game), he has lost more than just a step. His knees are shot. He can no longer explode to the rack at will or overpower nearly any two-guard in his way. Instead, he often settles for jumpers and relegates to the outside game. Granted, when he's hot, he's hot, and he was extremely efficient in the second half of the regular season, but another issue with Vince has always been his disappearance in the playoffs. When his team needs him to play at his highest level, he regresses. Carter shot just 40% from the field in his first postseason with Orlando, and was especially abysmal from beyond the arc (12-51). In the last four games of the Eastern Conference Finals, he did not show up.
At this point, Salmons can give you more. Vince is still capable, but he is just not the same.
On the Bubble: Vince Carter (ORL), O.J. Mayo (MEM), Kevin Martin (HOU), Jamal Crawford (ATL), Rip Hamilton (DET)

Ray is definately better then SJax. He's a top 5 SG. If you put Roy and Jojo on the Celtics, they wouldn't hit as many threes or score many more pts then Ray does
Great read once again, but i think kevin martin is a little better than the credit you gave him. I agree with most of what you said, but i do not agree with manu so high, and stephen jackson. both should be mentioned but i think ellis is going to pass both of them. Great reads keep it up!
Michael Redd is on the inactive list… all the time. He hasn't been healthy for two years and when he was on the floor last season, he was nothing to write home about. If he stays healthy next season and returns to form, of course he'd be in the list, but until then there are some guys I feel more comfortable ranking ahead of him.
If he does stay healthy, though, the Bucks are going to be very good.

Besides Donaldson, A's lack timely hitting in loss
OAKLAND -- On a day celebrating the A's World Series championship team of 40 years ago, A.J. Griffin preferred to look toward tomorrow.

OAKLAND -- On a day celebrating the A's World Series championship team of 40 years ago, A.J. Griffin preferred to look toward tomorrow.
Maybe then, the A's will stop their losing streak, now up to four games after Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.View Full Game Coverage
"We'll get that big hit," Griffin paused, "tomorrow. We'll get that big hit tomorrow. We'll get the ball rolling again, and it'll be a good day tomorrow."
The A's dropped to 13-12 and lost their eighth game out of their last nine, this one in front of 31,292 fans, in attendance for the 40th anniversary celebration and reunion of the 1973 World Series champion A's.
In recent games, the A's haven't often had a lead, and when they do, it hasn't lasted long. After the series-opening 10-2 loss Thursday in which the A's led 2-0 early, manager Bob Melvin mentioned afterward that the team needed to hold on to those types of leads. On Saturday, it happened again after the A's were up, 2-0, heading into the fourth.
Oakland scored once each in the second and third innings, but the Orioles (15-9) responded quickly off starter A.J. Griffin (2-2): Nick Markakis hit a two-run home run to left to tie it, and Adam Jones immediately followed with a solo homer to center. With one out, Chris Davis got a great jump from first and scored on J.J. Hardy's single to center to make it 4-2.
Other than Josh Donaldson's second-career four-hit game (4-for-4, two RBIs) and John Jaso's 3-for-5 performance, the A's could not cash in on their 10 hits, seven against Orioles starter Chris Tillman (1-1). The right-hander struck out seven, walked two and allowed seven hits and two runs in six innings. The A's were 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position.
That rough, 34-pitch fourth inning spoiled what could have been a solid outing by Griffin. He threw seven innings, allowed four runs, five hits and two walks, and struck out seven. When he struck out the side in the second frame, it looked as if the A's were turning the corner on the starting pitching they rely on heavily, especially with Yoenis Cespedes on the disabled list.
"[Griffin] pitched well pretty much every inning but one," Melvin said. "When you only score two runs and give up four in one inning, it's gonna end up costing you. It shouldn't, one bad inning. But we're not putting up runs across the board to overcome a big inning, and the big inning has been our Achilles heel recently."
Nate McLouth went 3-for-5, notching Baltimore's third homer of the day with a solo shot in the eighth.
"Griffin's a guy who goes out and works both sides of the plate," said Markakis, who went 2-for-4. "He keeps you off balance, in and out. He does a good job. He just left a couple over the plate."
A's Reliever Jerry Blevins, who came in Saturday having not allowed a run in 10 of his last 11 outings, was tagged for two runs in the eighth: the homer by McLouth and a sacrifice fly that made it 6-2.
Despite having as many hits as the O's, the A's didn't have much outside of Donaldson to engineer run production. Oakland loaded the bases with no outs in the ninth with Jaso's single off closer Jim Johnson. Seth Smith popped out to left -- not deep enough for Adam Rosales to tag for home -- and Jed Lowrie grounded into a game-ending double play.
"Everybody's trying too hard right now, regardless of position," Melvin said. "Some of the at-bats, too. We get some guys on base, and some of the guys want to be 'the' guy and put a little too much pressure on themselves."
Donaldson has been cool and productive, batting .397 in his last 17 games. After Brandon Moss singled to lead off the second, Donaldson followed with an RBI double to left, making it 1-0.
Donaldson came through again in the third, this time with two outs and runners on first and second. He chopped a 3-2 slider that appeared to deflect off Tillman and scored Smith from second to extend the lead, 2-0.
Donaldson even contributed with his glove at third base. In the fifth, he snared a grounder to start a double play and ended the inning with a sliding over-the-back basket catch at the A's bullpen mound.
"He's an animal out there," Griffin said. "You always know JD is gonna play his butt off."
In the eighth, with Moss on first, Donaldson doubled down the right-field line, then Josh Reddick scored Moss on a sac fly, making it 6-3.
Donaldson was two batters away after Lowrie's game-ending double play.
"We had a good feeling in the dugout," Melvin said of loading the bases in the ninth. "We felt like, based on past experiences, you feel good in the ninth inning when you get some guys on, and there was good energy in the dugout. It just ended abruptly."
The A's hope the losing streak will, too. Maybe tomorrow.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Tuesday she will not stage a vote on the House floor to officially launch an impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
The decision came after Democratic leaders, returning to Washington following a two-week recess, had reached out to members of their diverse caucus to gauge the party's support for such a vote.
After back-to-back meetings with party leaders and then the full caucus, Pelosi announced that no such vote would take place. Democratic aides emphasized, however, that the process remains fluid and that Pelosi may reverse course and stage such a vote at any point in the future.
"There's no requirement that we have a vote, and so at this time we will not be having a vote," Pelosi told reporters during a last-minute press briefing in the Capitol.Imp

[caption id="attachment_321197" align="aligncenter" width="750"] Body camera footage of Aaron Dean moments before the shooting of Atatiana Jefferson[/caption]
The former police officer involved in the killing of Atatiana Jefferson was arrested and charged with murder on the same day he resigned from the Fort Worth Police Department.
Police declined to say whether Dean was arrested by a Fort Worth officer or if he turned himself in. The department's major case and internal affairs units were "working diligently to conclude the criminal administrative investigation" into the shooting, said Sgt. Chris Daniels.
"We value the trust that we've had in our community, we will continue to build that trust," Daniels said. "To the citizens and residents of our city, we feel and understand your anger and disappointment."
Dean was served a written administrative complaint Sunday, placed on detached duty and stripped of his badge and firearm, interim Police Chief Ed Kraus said. He resigned Monday.
"My intent was to meet with him today to terminate his employment with the Fort Worth Police Department. However, the officer tendered his resignation this morning before we met," Kraus said.
If Dean had not resigned, he would have been fired for several policy violations, including the department's use of force and de-escalation policies, and unprofessional conduct, Kraus said.
The department has presented a preliminary case to the FBI to review the officer's actions for possible civil rights violations, Kraus said.
"None of this information can ease the pain of Atatiana's family but I hope it shows the community that we take these incidents seriously," he said.
Dean was hired in August 2017 and commissioned as a licensed officer in April 2018, Kraus said.

Two Soviet-born donors to a pro-Trump fundraising committee who helped Rudy Giuliani's efforts to investigate Democrat Joe Biden were arrested late Wednesday on criminal charges stemming from their alleged efforts to funnel foreign money into U.S. elections and influence U.S. politics on behalf of at least one Ukrainian politician.
Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, two Florida businessmen, made a brief appearance in federal court in Virginia Thursday, dressed in T-shirts. Both men are U.S. citizens born in former Soviet republics. They were arrested at Dulles Airport on Wednesday while awaiting an international flight with one-way tickets, according to people familiar with the matter, a day before one of them was scheduled to testify before House committees.
Mr. Giuliani said in an interview Thursday that Messrs. Parnas and Fruman were headed to Vienna on Wednesday evening for reasons related to their business. He declined to elaborate on those reasons. He said the two men had also left the country about two weeks ago and had traveled to Vienna between three and six times in the last two months. He said he had been scheduled to meet with the two when they returned to Washington within days.
A federal prosecutor told a judge the government remains concerned that the men will flee. Attorneys on both sides said they would reach an agreement about the conditions of their bail and would return to the judge later Thursday or Friday.
In a 21-page indictment unsealed Thursday, federal prosecutors in Manhattan alleged Messrs. Parnas and Fruman were engaged in political activities in the U.S. on behalf of one or more Ukrainian government officials—including a lobbying campaign, targeted at a Republican congressman, to remove the U.S. ambassador in Kyiv. President Trump ordered the ambassador, Marie Yovanovitch, removed from her post in May, the Journal has reported.

Position sensors measure the position and movement of an object, relative to a reference point. These sensors are available as linear position sensors, angular position sensors or multi-axis sensors. Linear position sensors detect the movement of an object in a straight line. They consist of a ferromagnetic core and windings, enclosed in a housing. These sensors are very reliable and robust, and ideally suited to harsh or hostile environments. Angular position sensors calculate the angular movement of an object, in terms of the number of rotations required to change from one orientation to the other. These sensors find use in several automotive and industrial applications, such as steering wheel positioning, sensing float levels and setting flow meters, and in robotics. Position sensors include encoders and inertial measurement units. When the sensors detect motion, the encoders emit a digital signal revealing position, velocity and direction of the object. Linear position sensors use linear encoders and angular position sensors use rotary encoders. Draw wire encoders co-opt a wire draw mechanism with a flexible cable and a spring-loaded spool to measure linear speed and position of the object. The rotation of the drum is proportional to the length under measurement, and the encoder records the output.

Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) Secretary Robert Barham announced the re-opening to recreational and commercial fishing activities in inside waters west of the eastern shore of Bayou Grand Caillou in Terrebonne Parish effective 6 pm, May 26, 2010. A precautionary closure of this area was issued May 22 due to increasing number of documented reports of oil east of this area. To date, no oil has been documented in this area.
Effective with this action, all state inside waters from the eastern shore of Bayou Grand Caillou westward to the Louisiana/Texas state line are open to recreational and commercial fishing.
Precautionary closures of recreational and commercial fishing have been implemented based on the best information the Secretary of the Department receives from field biologists, staff and trajectory models from NOAA.
Once reports of oil are received, LDWF initiates a field survey and immediate seafood testing in the suspected areas. Closures are subsequently made with the intent to be as safe as possible, while not closing any fishing areas unnecessarily. As test results come back clearing the area, effected waters are then reopened.
LDWF continues to work closely with DHH in an effort to assess all opportunities to resume normal fishing activities on Louisiana's coast and guarantee the safety of Louisiana's seafood.

KeepCup XS 4oz
This size is perfect for espresso, macchiato, cortado and piccolo - the short version, the shot. Our customers often use with their children, in Australia giving your child a "babycino" can provide a respite for you to enjoy your own coffee.
KeepCup SiX 6oz
In Melbourne it's a magic, in London it's a flat white, in the US it's a revolution. The size that most closely replicates a ceramic cup and saucer; great for 3/4 latte, flat white. It is great for a stronger coffee with less milk and an even more portable size.
KeepCup Small 8oz
Our original KeepCup. This size most closely resembles the internal volume of an in-house glass. It is a disposable cup size, more common in independent specialty coffee houses.
KeepCup Medium 12oz
The medium is appropriate for all the same coffees as the small, is one of the most popular sizes in takeaway coffee environments. The internal volume would be similar to a large mug. It is great for tea and iced beverages too.
KeepCup Large 16oz
This is a large cup, the internal volume is almost half a litre of liquid and replicates disposable cup volumes.

Cowart remains in Top 100 on updated prospects list
With 2013 Draftees signed and entered into their respective clubs' pipelines, MLB.com has re-ranked its Top 100 Prospects and each club's Top 20 Prospects.
With 2013 Draftees signed and entered into their respective clubs' pipelines, MLB.com has re-ranked its Top 100 Prospects and each club's Top 20 Prospects.
As the non-waiver Trade Deadline approaches and teams delve into opponents' farm systems looking to acquire future talent, it becomes obvious that the Angels do not have a whole lot to offer.
While homegrown product Mike Trout continues to thrive in the Major Leagues, the Angels' farm system leaves a lot to be desired, and it is a bit of a guessing game as to when the next Top 10 or even Top 50 prospect will come around.
Of the players that began the year among the Top 20 in the Angels' organization, Nick Maronde is the only one that's made an appearance in the big leagues.
However, Maronde's stint in Anaheim was brief as the left-hander pitched just 2 1/3 innings. Currently regarded as the No. 6 prospect in the Angels' organization, Maronde has a 3.66 ERA in 31 games for Double-A Arkansas.
Dropped off
Right-handed pitchers Daniel Tillman (No. 6), A.J. Schugel (16), Yency Almonte (19) and Cam Bedrosian (20) were all present when MLB.com ranked the Angels' Top 20 Prospects prior to the season. However, none of the four remain on the list.
Tillman has spent time with both Double-A Arkansas and Class A Inland Empire, but neither place has yielded favorable results as the 24-year-old has allowed 12 earned runs in 14 1/3 innings.
In 19 starts for Triple-A Salt Lake, Schugel has compiled a 4-6 record and posted a 7.05 ERA.
Almonte has a 6.60 ERA in six starts in the Rookie Pioneer League, while Bedrosian, pitching at Class A Burlington, has thrown 45 innings with 55 strikeouts and an ERA of 5.80.
New faces
As four pitchers fell out of the Angels' Top 20, three pitchers and an outfielder now find themselves included.
Pitchers Mike Morin (10), Hunter Green (13), Keynan Middleton (20) and outfielder Zach Borenstein (15) are now considered among the Top 20 Prospects.
While Green (second round) and Middleton (third round) were each selected by the Angels in this year's Draft, Morin and Borenstein were already in the organization.
Borenstein has been playing for Class A Advanced Inland Empire and is hitting over .300 while also showing some power.
While on the mound for Inland Empire and Arkansas, Morin has collected 13 saves and posted an ERA under 2.00.
Rising/falling stock
Second baseman Alex Yarbrough began the season as the club's No. 18 prospect, but he has jumped 11 spots to No. 7. Right-handed pitcher Mark Sappington has also jumped up the list, moving from No. 10 to No. 5.
While Yarbrough and Sappington are climbing in the rankings, several players saw their stock fall.
Outfielder Travis Witherspoon fell from No. 9 to No. 14, shortstop Jose Rondon went from 11th to 16th and right-hander Alfonso Alcantara dropped from 12th to 17th.
Top 100 representation
The Angels' farm system ranks among the worst in baseball in terms of Top 100 prospects, but the club does possess one player on the list, as Kaleb Cowart is ranked 86th.
The third baseman is playing for Arkansas this season and is hitting under .220 with five home runs.
The Angels are one of four teams (White Sox, Brewers, Giants) with just one prospect in the Top 100. Atlanta has none.
Based on a scoring system that awards 100 points to the team with the top prospect, 99 to the team with the No. 2 prospect and so on, the Angels' farm system ranks 28th in baseball.

Bees are considered to be the "queens of biodiversity" but bee populations continue to decline as a result of a broken industrial agricultural system which intensively uses chemicals and large monoculture plantations -- a system which is promoted by a few agrochemical companies like Bayer, Syngenta and BASF.
Taking the next step in our campaign to save the bees and agriculture, we continue exposing the failure of the current farming model and its impacts on bees. Greenpeace has today released a scientific report entitled: 'The Bees' Burden - an analysis of pesticide residues in comb pollen (beebread) and trapped pollen from honey bees'.
The study found that more than two-thirds of pollen collected in the fields and brought back to the hive by worker bees was contaminated with up to 17 different toxic chemicals. A total of 53 different chemical compounds were detected in the course of the study. They represented a wide range of pesticides. This research was one of the largest projects of its kind carried out to date in Europe, with more than 100 samples taken in 12 European countries over a single foraging season.
The wide range of toxic chemicals found suggests that bees may be exposed to complex mixtures of insecticides, acaricides and fungicides while searching for food and in the hive. The poisoned pollen is a direct threat to the entire bee population, because the colony, including larvae, worker bees and drones, eat this pollen as a source of protein and energy. The exposure of bees and bee larvae to such varied toxic pesticides is significant because, according to recent research, the interaction of different chemical components can lead to a cocktail effect which can be more toxic for bees than a single chemical.
Additionally, several studies show that pesticides can undermine the immune system of insects, making them more susceptible to diseases and to parasites like the Varroa mite which add greatly to the threats faced by bees.
The bee decline must stop. Although bees and other pollinators appear to be a small link in our food production chain they in fact play a massive and crucial role in our food security; one-third of our food, and most of the flowering plants on this planet, are pollinated by bees and by other insect pollinators. The value of global pollination has been estimated at some 265bn Euros annually.
Change is urgently needed now to protect our bees and our agriculture. With your help, Greenpeace wants policy-makers to expand the existing partial bans on four of the worst bee-killing pesticides and make them permanent. Furthermore, a ban on all bee harming pesticides is urgently needed. We need to have ambitious bee action plans to monitor the health of bees and other pollinators and to reduce their overall exposure to hazardous chemicals. Funding should also be shifted away from destructive industrial agriculture. Ecological farming is superior as a model - specifically for bees and for the planet as a whole.
Ecological farming, in fact, produces food without the use of bee-harming chemicals and relies on non-polluting and long-term pest protection techniques. The increase of biodiversity, the attraction of beneficial insects, crop rotation, mixed farming and the implementation of locally available 'low input' technologies are all ecological farming applications that help to protect our soil, water and climate. Only ecological farming will enable us to save our bees and produce healthy food without contaminating the environment with chemical inputs.
Join us in taking action now and to be part of the global movement to save the bees and promote ecological farming by signing our petition.
Matthias Wüthrich is an Ecological Farming campaigner and European bees project leader at Greenpeace Switzerland.

Extremely useful piece of work. I should have read this yesterday!
The next step in research is to examine the impact of harmful pesticides on the life cycle of bees. Apart from possible impacts on the survival and reproduction ability, how are contaminants affecting the performance of bees and their vulnerability to other pests and diseases?
We need another study to assess impact of pesticides on fish and aquatic creatures and plants. Observations suggest that pesticides in paddy fields are reducing the harvest of aquatic creatures which is the life-blood of hundreds of poor people across Asia. Paddy yield containing poisons may increase but at what cost? How many poor people will be deprived of their daily nutrients resulting from reduced harvest of paddy-field creatures and plants? How many poor people will loose their employment and income due to the reduction in harvest of materials collected from paddy fields? Putting all these together, is it worth the increase of just paddy yield?

EXETER — Attend the artist reception for Terri Ellen Donsker of North Hampton on Saturday, Dec. 8 from noon-3 p.m. at the Seacoast Artist Association gallery, 225 Water Street in Exeter.
As the artist featured in December and January, Donsker will be displaying photographic images depicting the mystical, magical communication between water and light. Refreshments will be served.
"Water is a mirror, presenting an ethereal, fluid version of the reality above it," Donsker said. "The abstract form is discovered within the watery version of the solid subject. Glittering, glaucous waves churn in restless fury. Flowing colors on the water form an artist palette."
Donsker has been a serious photographer for 40 years. During that time she has lived in Seattle and coastal New Hampshire.
"As a photographer, I see images everywhere" Donsker said. "As a photographic artist, I see endless compositions within the images I capture. There is magic and mystery in the play of light on water as it is touched by the air, blown by the wind; inhaled, then exhaled by the endless tides. Just as the narrow canals eternally renew the ancient facades of Venice, solid objects of stone and wood are softened by water dancing in their midst. But these images are fleeting, whirling flashes of brilliance. Now here; now gone forever in the rushing river of time. My passion is to capture these images, lest I forget the experience of these all-too-brief encounters. "
Touring with her husband, David, in search of birds, she encountered subjects in many parts of the world: Africa, the Antarctic, Central and South America, Thailand, Finland, Britain and Ireland, and continental Europe.
"Images hold fast the memories that define my life" Donsker said. "Photographs enable me to revisit the feast and truly relish the banquet. This exhibit is a sharing of some of my favorite images featuring the magic of reflected light."
Donsker has exhibited throughout New Hampshire, in Newburyport, Mass, in Minnesota and Baden-Baden, Germany. His work will be on exhibit through January.
Visit the artist's website at www.terridonskerphotographer.com. Email: email@example.com
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and, as of Dec. 2, Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Call 778-8856 or email email@example.com. For directions, visit www.seacoastartist.org.
Enjoy the magic of reflected light

Owning a business gives entrepreneurs the freedom to pursue more than simply income and wealth from their businesses. Many choose to use their businesses to become building blocks to help improve their community.
Several students at Belmont University are participating in a program addressing one challenge faced by every community: Inmates are released from prison every day back into the community and face a difficult transition back into society. TRIO, which stands for Transformation Reconciliation from the Inside Out, uses education as a tool to help build a path for successful reintegration of former offenders from prison back into the community.
One important partner in this process is local employers. Finding employment for former offenders significantly reduces the probability that they will return to prison in the future.
In the first phase of this program, TRIO brings together college students and inmate students in classes that are offered at the Charles Bass Correctional Complex Annex in Nashville. The goal of the classes is to engage the inmates jointly with college students in education to help foster understanding and reconciliation through community support.
Some of the students are trying to help with the next step in this program by identifying employers who are willing to hire the offenders. This is not always an easy task.
"I am especially discouraged when employers see only a crime rather than an individual working toward reconciliation," said Lindsey Ricker, an entrepreneurship major at Belmont who is participating in TRIO. "Many employers take one glance at a checked felony box and throw a job application in the trash."
"I have confidence in our guys," added Eliza Hemmings, a sociology and French double major from Belmont. "I have confidence that given support and the right opportunity that they will be successful in their re-entry process. It is not possible to change the past -- what's done is done. But what we can do as a larger community is support their will to change, their will to contribute to society in a positive way and rebuild their lives. We as community members have a choice as well, and I choose to support my inside friends on their journey toward success."
Employers who are participating find benefits from hiring men from this program.
"Which Wich (a sandwich shop franchise) has found the employees re-entering society to be hard-working, determined and bringing a positive attitude to the other employees and customers," said Tracie Maybaum, a Which Wich general manager. "One of the most beneficial assets they bring to work is their attitude. Theirs positivity influences other employees, and their gratitude is motivating."
The government can assist employers who are willing to hire former offenders. The U.S. Department of Labor insures qualified former offenders bonding for a range of $5,000-$25,000 for six months. And those who hire a qualified former offender within a year of release may be eligible for up to $9,000 in tax credits.
Hiring former offenders certainly brings with it some risks. But accepting these risks can help contribute toward building a stronger community. And after all, isn't entrepreneurship all about taking risks?

Kenetthey Blockenski's Gymkhana series of videos showcase some truly amazing driving talent. But it's even more impressive when done in miniature.
The folks over at HPI did a perfect miniature recreation of Gymkhana 6 with an RC Ford Fiesta and an epoxy-coated floor. RC cars are tough to control, so this takes a lot of control, and probably more than one take.
