Legendary Sports Agent Leigh Steinberg Addresses Jaycees on Last Day of Leadership Training and Networking Symposium on July 18, 2004

Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) July 12, 2004

Business, leadership, sports and community service collide as legendary sports agent Leigh Steinberg delivers a keynote address on Sunday, July 18, 2004, 10:30 a.m. at the Radisson Hotel Newport Beach as part of the four-day 2004 Metropolitan Conference hosted by the Newport Beach Junior Chamber. During his remarkable 30-year career, Steinberg has represented over 150 professional athletes in football, baseball, basketball, boxing and Olympic sports. His firm, Leigh Steinberg Enterprises, maintains a client roster that is highlighted by some of the most high profile names in sport. Athletes such as Troy Aikman (Dallas Cowboys), Steve Young (San Francisco 49ers), Ricky Williams (Miami Dolphins), Mark Brunell (Washington Redskins), Ben Roethlisberger (Pittsburgh Steelers) and Heavyweight Champion Lennox Lewis have been among his esteemed group. He has represented the No. 1 pick overall in the NFL draft a record eight times, a milestone unrivaled within the sports industry.

What distinguishes Steinberg from others within his profession is his desire for athletes make a positive contribution to society. Steinberg insists that every contract negotiated for his players include clauses that require the athlete to give back to their hometown, high school, university or national charities and foundations. According to Steinberg, this allows the athlete to function as a positive role model by repaying the community that helped shape him. As a result, Steinberg’s clients have donated over $ 60 million to hundreds of charities and scholarships nationwide.

According to Newport Beach Junior Chamber 2004 President Anna Lisa Biason, “Steinberg and the Junior Chamber have one key factor in common: an emphasis on service to community.” The Newport Beach Junior Chamber (a.k.a. Jaycees), a local chapter of the California Jaycees, U.S. Jaycees and Junior Chamber International, provides young

people with opportunities for community involvement and service, leadership training, entrepreneurship and fellowship in an effort to create positive change in the world.

The Metropolitan Networking Conference (“MetNet”) is a leadership training and networking symposium hosted each year by a different local Chapter of the U.S. Jaycees. The Newport Beach Jaycees are especially pleased to host this year’s MetNet as they will welcome Jaycees from all over the globe. MetNet 2004 begins with JCI LEAD on July 15 and 16 an intensive leadership training program designed to identify the eight attributes of a successful leader. MetNet 2004 will also feature Junior Chamber International World President Fernando Sanchez-Arias from Venezuela (“Find Your Passion”), U.S. Jaycees National President Lon Fox (“Dream and Achieve”), and New York Times Best-selling Author and President of Young and Successful Media Corporation Jennifer Kushell (“Marketing to Generation X”).

Aside from leadership training and networking, MetNet 2004 will also highlight opportunities for serving the community through two U.S. Jaycees national priority projects. Jaycees Against Youth Smoking is a free, educational program that goes directly into elementary and middle school classrooms to teach children about the dangers of smoking and to help them make the informed decision to be smoke. Junior Chamber Family Aids Network is aimed at mobilizing communities for collaborative, dynamic, and effective solutions that support and enhance the lives of children, youth, and families living with HIV/AIDS.

Leadership training, business development and community service are unique attributes of Steinberg’s career and the Junior Chamber’s mission. All elements will converge at MetNet 2004 in Newport Beach, July 14-18, 2004.

Cost of JCI LEAD (July 15-16) is $ 99 for Jaycees/$ 199 for Non-Jaycees. Cost of MetNet 2004 (July 16-18) is $ 50 for Newport Jaycees/$ 99 for other Jaycees/$ 125 for non-Jaycees and includes Sunday Morning with Leigh Steinberg. Cost of admission to Steinberg’s Sunday Morning Address alone is Pre-sale: $ 25 for Jaycees/$ 35 for Non-Jaycees and $ 50.00 at the door for everyone.

25th Anniversary of the Pioneering Basketball and Hip-Hop Song, “N.B.A. Rap” (1982)

Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) August 23, 2007

25 years ago during the year 1982 the culture of basketball and hip-hop was not on the radar screen outside of urban neighborhoods. The 2 entities were becoming part of everyday life for teenage kids and young adults who were being influenced by the new sub-culture art-form and the urban ‘Sport of the Street.’ The culture was first introduced on wax by rap artists Hurt Em’ Bad when he released the 2-track album “N.B.A. Rap” from Grove Time Records. This was 2 years before Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin formed Def Jam Records and Kurtis Blow released his legendary rap song “Basketball.”

The Year 1982, Pop Culture, Sports, Facts:

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial was a box office smash hit.

Michael Jackson released his mega-album Thriller (December 1), the most successful album of all-time over 100 million units sold.

California Toilet Rental Customers Are Given Instant Access to Local Service Providers

Statewide, CA (PRWEB) October 25, 2007

Mesawasteservices.com (http://www.mesawasteservices.com) has launched an innovative, user-friendly web site from which customers seeking California portable toilet rental services can review company profiles and request multiple quotes by simply selecting the appropriate city. At a mere $ 10 per city, the site allows portable restroom service providers to control the cities under which the customer’s search will find them. In addition to its ease of use, the site provides ample space for service providers to market themselves to customers with varying and specific requirements. This is particularly relevant in California, which is home to a wide range portable sanitation customers, from the US Forest Service, the US military, the US Department of Transportation, to the oil industry, the construction industry, utility companies, disaster response teams, and local sponsored street fairs and events, school districts, park districts, campgrounds, golf courses, dude ranches, rock concert venues, sports venues, racetracks, marinas, caterers, wedding planners – the list is virtually endless.

As with most industries, portable toilet customers increasingly use the internet to locate California portable restroom companies. Unfortunately, the prohibitive cost of developing a web presence has resulted in severe underrepresentation of many existing small and medium sized companies. Mesawasteservices.com bridges that gap. Service providers can now do away with web site development completely while offering industry guideline information and providing helpful links to related informational sites. The customer benefits from a larger vendor pool that is truly representative of the portable sanitation industry.

This restroom rental web site is the brainchild of three individuals, Todd Shell (yes, that Todd Shell, retired Outside Linebacker for the 49ers with 2 Superbowl rings to prove it), Jay James (who bought his first 60 units at the tender age of 18), and Sharon Larry (who is yet to find two porta potty companies with the same business model). Their combined industry experience provides a strong foundation from which to offer services that address the needs of the portable restroom rental industry.

Jay James grew up in the septic pumping industry. At 18, he went into business for himself. He enjoys a solid reputation for his extensive knowledge about the sanitation industry and his quality of service. Jay’s insistence on finding strategies to minimize the high cost of advertising was the catalyst for the discussions leading to development of the web site. He is looking forward to getting feedback from companies that increase sales while decreasing advertising costs. In Jay’s eye, it will be “poetic justice for the little guy”.

20 years ago, Sharon Larry could not have imagined that she would find her niche in the portable toilet industry. She cut her teeth in the Bay Area where she was required to accompany the San Francisco route driver for one shift. She learned more in that eight hours of riding up and down the hills throughout the city than she ever could have sitting behind her desk. In one fell swoop, she developed an unwavering respect for those individuals with the stomach to do the work. In recent years, as an industry consultant, she has had the opportunity to see first-hand the operations of a variety of portable restroom companies throughout the country. This has provided her with a unique perspective on various challenges facing the portable sanitation industry as a whole.

Todd Shell is a newcomer to the portable sanitation industry. In 1984, he was #1 draft choice (24th player selected overall) for the San Francisco 49ers. Forced into early retirement by a neck injury, Todd discovered the skill set he acquired as a professional football player could be successfully applied to the business world. He spent a number of years raising capital for various wall street based investment groups. His love of the game, however, brought him out of retirement to become Head Coach for the New York Dragons. In 2003, he was named Arena Football League Coach of the Year. Last year, however, as happens with many people, when he stumbled upon this industry he was immediately intrigued by the impact his leadership skills and business management acumen could have on a portable toilet business.

Mesa Waste fully expects its web site to open up new income streams for thousands of portable toilet companies across the country. The company is currently focusing on getting the word out in California. For those asking the question, “Why should my company advertise with Mesa Waste Services?” Because increased web presence equals increased sales – period.

Wolfgang’s Vault Releases Rare Limited Edition Rock Legend Photographs


San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) December 20, 2007

December 19, 2007 – San Francisco, CA – Wolfgang’s Vault (http://www.WolfgangsVault.com), the online home for live music, announced the release today of limited edition of 15 photographs by famed rock photographers Joe Sia, Michael Zagaris and Baron Wolman. This rare selection of hand-picked prints have never before been made available to the public and feature candid shots of rock’s foremost legends including Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, the Who, Led Zeppelin, the Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Frank Zappa, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Dylan, and Ray Charles.

Wolfgang’s Vault is the premier source of fine art photo prints sold on behalf of the illustrious photographers who lived the rock decades from an insider’s point of view. These rarities were hand selected from the nearly 7000 rock photographs in Wolfgang’s Vault that chronicle the history of rock.

Baron Wolman: Settling in Haight-Ashbury in the 60’s, Wolman landed not only in the literal city of seismic change but at the absolute figurative center of change itself. Surrounded by Janis and the Grateful Dead, Wolman was soon accompanying journalist Jann Wenner to the now famous and genre-defining Mills College conference on rock music. Wenner happened to be the founder of Rolling Stone magazine. He liked Wolman’s style, offered him a job and Wolman began to capture and document the new psychedelic age. Beginning with the magazine’s opening issue, Wolman’s photographs were windows on the parade of the different, the delightful and the doomed, and his pictures became the gold standard by which rock photography would be measured.

Michael Zagaris: Michael Zagaris, known as ‘the Z-man’, is not a picture-taker. He doesn’t take photos “of” people: his viewfinder aims to capture from the inside out. A centered soul in a yin-yang universe, he offers the performer’s eye view. Zagaris became his subjects: the Stones, the Who, Led Zeppelin. He donned the make-up and ran down the tunnel into the perfect blindness of stage lights, feeling the electric jolt of thrill, fear and let’s-put-a-show-on with the artists. As an insider he takes photographs of what was, not what one expected to see. He is team photographer for the San Francisco 49ers since 1973, and for the Oakland A’s, Zagaris is sports’ inside-out shooter. Ankles taped and knee pad-clad, he’s the guy so close to the players that they don’t even need to pose for him, they just live.

Joe Sia: Born in the Bronx and a committed Yankees man, the gone-too-soon Joe loved music and gravitated around the Fillmore East and the flower-power youth-culture rock scene in which he set out to capture some of the most incredible sounds of the last half-century. How could Joe capture sounds on camera film? He did it by focusing on the faces of the performers and the woozing-oozing crowd and by giving the background, whether simple or wild, the importance it deserved in defining the artist and event. Sia’s entire archive consists more than a quarter of a million photographs that document almost 35 years of music genre and giants.
