Exclusive! Tracy MrGrady is Launching a New Fitness Website

TMac has started a new business project. Recently, he has recruited a handful of Harvard students to create a new fitness website where college and high school athletes can have access to professional trainers.

Elite trainers such as Gary Sheffield’s trainer, Micheal Pittman’s trainer, and even Tracy’s very own trainer, Wayne Hall. There will be instructional videos lead by them.

This website will allow young athletes to improve their diets, and workout regimens and even get professional medical advice if injured.

Underprivileged athletes who can’t afford the proper medical attention can have access to how professional athletes treat their injuries.

There will also be software programs that can help them with calculate if they are getting enough protein in their diets and tell them how to achieve their desired weight and build. All they would have to do is enter their body information.

All of this information will be accessible of course for a small price, the amount is still in the works but it could be as low as $5.99 a month!

This project is still underway and is still in the creation stages. On June 25, 2008 Tracy flew those Harvard students into Texas to discuss the project further and to see if they can actually accomplish his venture. I have to say from my sources that it is looking pretty good and we just might see this site up soon.

“One Man” for Change

 

Barack Obama has adopted a theme song, ”One Man” by Jason Joseph for his campaign and I have to say it fits the bill.

This video really touches my heart and I really beleive this country is ready for a change. Our economy is terrible and gas prices are ridiculous. I am sure everyone is tired of all the complaining. I know I am.

Upon watching the video, it pricked a hole in my heart but listening to that song sparked a new hope.  I truely beleive Obama just might be the answer to all of our prayers. He is really just one man, but he is one man that can bring about change for Americans. Just put aside your differences. We need to do something different, and we need to do it now.

 Jason Joseph, a talented musician, vocalist and songwriter. His style of music is described as “electic soul”: a blend of soul with a mix of hip hop, rock, and more.

Jason recently finished recording his solo studio debut, “Out of Mind: Side A” which was released on June 10, 2008.

Prepare to Acknowledge Defeat Hilliary!!

Looks like Obama is knocking out his rival completely. It was just announced by Associated Press that Barack Obama is getting close to acquiring enough delegates to reach that magical number of 2,118.

Barack Obama will be the first black major candidate to lead his party in this campaign in history. I do believe this country is ready for a black man to be president. I do NOT believe that this country is ready for a woman president, though. Suprising to hear from a female’s mouth, huh? Well, it’s true. Americans are ready for change, but not that much change.

The Superbowl Comes to Tampa Bay

How great is the Superbowl XLII coming to Raymond James Stadium in Janurary of 2009 going to be for our economy? This will definitely boost Tampa’s spirits. Just a little break from all the high gas prices, and jobless economy.

Well, I attended a meeting at Champ’s Sports Bar and Grill this past Wednesday for Superbowl XLII with the committee throwing this spectacular event. Krista Soroka, who started her own PR firm called Wonder Events, and Amanda Holt, who has been on the committe once before, were both speaking on behalf of the event.

They are both are very experienced in holding such a immense event and will make next year’s Superbowl a memorable one.  I’m talking about free concerts, more publicity, high involvement and much excitment. They are going to paint the town red….white, and blue. With those wonderful NFL colors.

What are we left with once the Superbowl comes into town and traffic demolishes our streets. Well, not only will we have a month long of activities, all the publicity,  and being nationally recognized. Raymond James will be adding a couple thousand more seats for this event as well. A bigger stadium!

Want to know more?  This one-day event will really be a whole month long escapage. Turns out the children’s Gasparilla parade is the week before Superbowl and the adult Gasparilla parade is the weekend after. So mark you calendars people, Tampa bay is in for one magical month!

More parties and events to attend as well. How about the Playboy party or the Maxim party? I want to go to that for sure!

You and your organizations can get involved too. I will post the link soon. So stay tuned for more.

Christian Audigier Promotes His New Baby Line with….Britney?!?!?

 

Have you seen all those cool T-shirts with the skulls, hearts and gems on campus or on the street lately?  Christian Audigier has an amazing clothing line. His brilliant, vintage graphics are modeled after tatoo artist Don Ed Hardy.  It’s a mix of rock n roll meets glam. If you want to turn some heads  then you should invest in this fashion statement.  Everyone who’s who is wearing Christian Audigier.

I believe the Ed Hardy line hit hard recently and it is now catching on in Florida. He recently had a fashion show at the Seminole Hard Rock Cafe to promote the Christian Audigier line. It’s a little bit more pricey than the Ed Hardy line.

In People magazine, Monsier Audigier is starting his new baby clothing line…awwww!!

But Britney Spears is pairing up with him on creating the baby clothes!! I wouldn’t say she sets a great example out there for all those hard working moms who still know how to look fabulous all the while wiping up baby vomit.

He should pick someone else to promote his line.  I think anything with Britney on it especially when it comes to children is tainted or dubbed trashy.

How are you going to have the “Worst Mother of the Year” be the spokeperson for your new line of baby clothing?!

Jenny’s Got A Gun!

Does anyone remember the Virgina Tech shootings? Or should I remind you that it happened only last year on this very day! This morning as I payed for my highly overpriced gas at the station on my way to class this morning and I glanced at the newstand.  There lay the Tampa Tribune. On it’s front page read, “Guns On Board” mocking one of those cute little signs you put on your car window that say, ” Baby on Board”. Don’t know about you but it hurts my heart to think about babies and guns.

Our wonderul Governor Charlie Christ signed a law this week allowing Joe Schmo the right to carry a gun in his vehicle during the day when he goes to work.  Just as long as it is locked in his car and he has a permit for his concealed weapon.  Of course weapons are not permitted on school property, churches, or hospitals. So what happens when Mr. Schmo has to pick up lil Bobby and Sally from school because Mrs. Schmo was running late at work?

What if Joe Schmo is just having one of those days where his just broke the bank filling gas in his car, spilled his morning coffee on his new tie and his boss just chewed him out for not being fully prepared for this mornings meeting? Joe just might think about walking out to his car in the parking lot and whipping out his .9mm and have a little chat with his boss and anyone else who got in his way.  People actually think about those things, boys and girls, don’t be naive now. I know that might scare you to think “OMG! That’s just sick that anyone would even consider that!”  Well they do. They might seem like the last person on earth to every do anything like that.

As we all know, from past incidents it is very easy to acquire a firearm. It seems like Jake the Jughead and Retard Ray can easily purchase a gun just as easily as they can buy a 6-pack. Remember those kids from Columbine??

The law started in Oklahoma when hunters carried firearms in their pickups to work and they were fired because they didn’t follow the “no firearm policy” on work property.  There aren’t many hunters here in  my neighborhood of New Tampa nor are they any wild animals running around the Verizon building downtown.

In my opinion, don’t carry a gun in your car. You could hurt yourself or other people. It’s just stupid. I don’t think the crime is really that terrible in Florida where you need to carry a gun with you to work. I am speaking as a native from Yonkers, New York.

MySpace is bilingual!

Wow! MySpace goes Spanish.  MySpace Latino just launched today. You now have the option to view your MySpace account in Spanish. MySpace offers the capabilites to switch backand forth from English to Spanish.

 I think this will be very helpful to those who have trouble understanding written English as well as with computers. I know some of my friends, whose first language is Spanish, just signed onto some social networking sites like Facebook and they cry to me saying they don’t know how to use anything. “I don’t know how to post pictures, Camille!” or “Camille, how do I download that application on your profile?” Now it will be easier for my friends and everyone else who would use it. I would use it just to practice on my Spanish.

I love Hispanic culture. I think more people should make more of an effort to learn the language. Exspecially since it is becoming the most spoken language in the nation next to English. I think more people in Florida should make the extra effort as well, considering the Spanish population is so large down here.

From MTV Tres to MySpace Latino. What next?

Does that mean there will be a  Viva la Facebook?

Filling the really big shoes of “Miss PR”-Meg Roberts

  I am currently a student at the University of South Florida  and I just started the public relations sequence.  I have the great priviledge of having Mr. Batchelor as my gatekeeper into PR and also as my professor in Principles of Public Relations.  I joined PRSSA on campus at the beginning of the semester but I didn’t have much time to get actively involved in many events. Recently, I found a new job that will give me more time during the day to participate in more school activites. Two days ago, I received an email from PRSSA reminding me that elections for e-board were on Thursday and to be sure to attend to vote. There was also an announcement stating that no one had applied for the position of Director of Member Services. I really wanted to get more involved on campus, especially in PRSSA. I sent an email to the contact person asking more about what the position entailed. I continued on posting a new blog (I used to blog anonymously) and checking my email and completing my homework. I turned off my computer without a response from anyone about the position.  Last night, I received a response from the Director of Member Services, Meg, describing the positon. Well, I replied asking her “how do I apply for the postion?” With elections only under 12 hours away, I started searching the PRSSA website on what I should do next. I copy and pasted someone else’s application and filled it out and then submitted it to Meg. Then I had a flash back of something Mr. Batchelor had said. One day, he talked about the infamous Meg Roberts and her amazing blog and how people from other universities know her by name and that we should really read her blog. Well, I had previously read her blogs before and at that very moment I realized that the positon that I just applied for was Meg Roberts! I quickly went back to my inbox only to confirm that it was her who had sent me the email. I couldn’t believe it and I am still a little baffled at the whole situation, only because I have some really big shoes to fill. Yes, you guessed it, lil ol’ me is the new Director of Member Services for PRSSA at the University of South Florida. So, Hello World!!
