Platinum Recording Artist Sean Kingston Signs Exclusive Sneaker and Apparel Deal with Yums

2008-12-08T04:49:00.000-06:00

New York, NY (PRWEB) December 7, 2008 -- Yums Shoes and platinum recording artist and teen sensation Sean Kingston announce a sneaker and apparel deal that will bring Kingston and Yums Designer Tex together to release an exclusive shoe, which will represent Sean Kingston's unique international style and Jamaican heritage. The deal with Kingston follows Yums signing an exclusive sneaker and apparel deal with fellow Mega Trend Setting Atlanta Rap Artist Soulja Boy Tell'em. Yums is known for their colorful line and the clear sole of each shoe being uniquely emblazoned with graffiti art.

Sean Kingston took the world by storm in the Summer of 2007 with his No.1 hit "Beautiful Girls" and certified platinum self titled debut album. The single, based on the bass line and lyrical "association" of the 1961 hit "Stand By Me" by Ben E. King, was an International hit, reaching #1 in 19 countries around the world and topping the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks straight. Commonly referred to as "Mr. Myspace", Kingston grew his "pop star" status with not only his unique sound and universal appeal but his popularity on the social networking site "Myspace". Sean has logged almost 34 million hits on his myspace page to date. Kingston is not only an accomplished young music artist but is also showing his business prowess with the launch of his own record label, Time is Money Entertainment. Sean Kingston will work together with Yums "Supa Throwed" designer and legendary Dallas graffiti artist Tex, one of the founding members of Infinity Crew, on his exclusive shoe design. Kingston's shoe will be the first design of a new original silhouette Yums will be launching in the Spring of 2009. The new shoe will consist of a blend of Jamaican colors which represents Sean Kingston's heritage. The launch of the shoe (Spring 2009) will coincide with the release of Kingston's highly anticipated sophomore album "Tomorrow".

The companies' unique style has positioned Yums Shoes as THE sneaker of choice throughout the hip-hop nation. Tex says of the deal between Kingston and Yums "I'm excited to work with him. Sean is kinda like a Pop Star with a definite street edge to him. He's a great fit for us." JP McDade, CEO of Yums Shoes, adds "We could not have signed a better artist to compliment Yums and our current deal with Sean Kingston's personal friend Soulja Boy Tell'em. Yums now has two of the most influential teens in the music game and on the internet." The two friends, Sean Kingston and Soulja Boy Tellem, recently paired up on a new single "Yamaha Mama" that will be featured on Soulja Boy Tellem's sophomore release iSouljaBoyTellem Dec. 16th, 2008.

Yums shoes are currently available at Finish Line and other fine retailers. Please visit www.yumsshoes.com for an extensive display of Yums Shoes designs, apparel and more.

Media execs see deal opportunities in downturn

2008-12-06T06:53:00.000-06:00

By Anupreeta Das

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The media and technology sector, which has seen a spate of failed merger attempts in 2008, should brace for more aggressive dealmaking next year spurred by bargain-basement valuations.

Top executives at the Reuters Media Summit in New York this week said they saw increased opportunities for the strong to buy the weak, as the recession causes share prices to tumble further.

And with tight credit markets making it tough for many companies to borrow money for acquisitions, executives expect more creative deals, such as share swaps between distressed companies without a lot of cash.

IAC/InterActiveCorp Chief Executive Barry Diller said he was building a $2.2 billion stockpile of cash and could swoop in on a "cascade of acquisition opportunities" in the media and entertainment sectors.

"I don't think now is the time to buy frankly anything unless you desperately need it," Diller said, noting that valuations will only get lower in coming months as the economy worsens.

Chris DeWolfe, co-founder and CEO of MySpace, the social networking site owned by News Corp, was equally aggressive, pointing out that start-ups valued at between $200 million and $300 million just six months ago are now willing to sell themselves for as little as a tenth of that value.

With venture capital funding for start-ups expected to trickle off if the economy worsens, DeWolfe expects valuations to get even cheaper, creating more deal opportunities.

Such comments were echoed by many executives, from No.2 U.S. cable company Time Warner Cable Inc's Chief Financial Officer Robert Marcus to leading cinema chain Regal Entertainment Group's CEO Mike Campbell.

But they also said the low valuations would make target companies reluctant to sell unless they had to, and frozen lending markets also makes financing for deals tough.

CREATIVE DEALS

Take Two Interactive Software Inc CEO Strauss Zelnick, who turned down a takeover bid from larger video game publisher Electronic Arts Inc this year, said he expects more innovative dealmaking ahead.

"What you may see are stock-for-stock transactions, where people say, 'we don't really care about the stock value because the relevant fundamentals look attractive and there are synergies," he said.

Depressed stock prices also provide large, diversified media conglomerates the opportunity to make strategic buys of high-growth companies such as video game publishers or digital media providers, Zelnick said.

Media conglomerates, which typically trade at low price-to-earnings multiples, have sometimes shied away from buying smaller companies that trade at higher multiples for fear that the resulting dilution would anger shareholders, especially if a deal doesn't immediately add to earnings.

But the topsy-turvy market frees companies from these constraints and smart buyers could easily use the opportunity to do deals to boost their assets, Zelnick said.

Even then, most acquirers will proceed very cautiously.

Regal CEO Mike Campbell said he liked the movie theater assets owned by Sumner Redstone's National Amusements Inc, but added that limited access to credit would make any acquisition tough, even if the target has an attractive price tag.

"The same lending markets that may be creating the opportunities creates a barrier for potential acquirers, whether it's National Amusements or anybody else out there today," he said.

Lindsay Lohan about Facebook on MySpace

2008-12-05T04:35:00.000-06:00

"okay, so i love myspace, because it is secure, and the people at myspace don’t disable your account because they think that you are a fake you. having said that brings me to the subject of my blog… facebook allows a lot of posers, i thought maybe they would figure out that the posers of me, (and i am sure others on facebook) were in fact posers by looking into their accounts, or sending emails to the people that they believed to be “posers” which ask questions. what those questions may be.. i don’t know. which is why i don’t run an interactive web site."

MySpace Celebrities Say the Darndest Things about Facebook

2008-12-05T03:59:00.000-06:00

When stars aren’t off canoodling or drinking and driving, they’re making their publicists cringe, one sentence at a time.

Jennifer Aniston has been feisty lately. She talked to Entertainment Weekly recently and gave us not one but two excellent sound bites. Regarding the constant pregnancy rumors, she said that it’s almost going to take the fun out of announcing a real pregnancy one day. She then followed up with:

“Stop stealing my thunder, mother****ers!"
In another part of the interview she responds to a scathing 2006 New York Times critique by saying:

“Who ****ing shit in her Wheaties? How do these people get the opportunity to just spew shit?”

I don’t know, Jen, how do you? For the record, if you don’t want to appear bitter, you should probably stop bringing up three year old grudges in the press. Stay classy!

Don’t you feel like Lindsay Lohan is the retarded little sister the media forces you to have? This week, she wrote a Myspace blog riddled with stupidity to complain about Facebook deleting her profile because they thought she was a fake of herself. Granted, that would piss me off too, but I would never say this:
“i am also writing this blog in hopes that the people at facebook will un-disable my account and allow me to sign in the EXACT same way it was, same friends, same emails, same "pets" and so on..”
Aw, sweetie, that’s not how technical support works. In any case, we hope Facebook grants her request, at least for the sake of the pets. Think of the pets, Facebook!!

Speaking of people whose access to the internet needs to be restricted, Kanye West is running his mouth again and this time it's not on his blog, which is pretty surprising since he blogs about once an hour. This time it wasn’t even himself he was touting. No, the voice of our generation, had this to say about Beyonce:
"Nobody really wants to recognize that Beyoncé is a f***ing living legend."
That’s because no one else thinks so. If you want more of Kanye’s douchebaggery, head over to his blog to see all the tacky shit he thinks is cool.

P.S. Your new album sucks. Put away the vocal synthesizers. In fact, put away the vocals altogether.

Do they sell muzzles for people?

Apple's Sexy 3G iPhone - State of the smart

2008-12-01T03:35:00.001-06:00

With 2008 drawing to a close, Icon's experts recap an eventful and entertaining year in technology.

MOBILE PHONES

iPhone. That's just about all you need to say about mobile phones in 2008 because almost every newsworthy development seemed to hinge on Apple's sexy smartphone.

There was the local launch of the device itself, which saw queues stretching around the blocks on a chilly mid-winter morning in July. There was the subsequent meltdown of Optus's 3G network, as iPhone users attracted by the carrier's best-in-class deals swarmed onto the airwaves and choked the 3G channels with their browsing and downloading.

Even the launch of other mobile phones was often seen through the iPhone filter. Did it have a touchscreen? Was it an "iPhone killer"? Nokia, Samsung, LG and HTC all lined up to release their own touchphones.

This month we'll even see a touchscreen BlackBerry in the shape of the BlackBerry Storm, although the August launch of the more conventional BlackBerry Bold created plenty of excitement among the mobile email community.

But the real game-changer will be the next generation of mobile phones powered by Google's Android operating system. The first of these touched down in November in the US, and plenty are sure to follow next year. The reason? Android is freely available to any mobile phone manufacturer and leverages Google's free suite of internet services, such as email, news, searching and maps.

LAPTOPS

The computing tables turned in 2008 as laptops outsold desktop PCs for the first time. Driven by the lure of portability and go-anywhere computing, and buoyed by wireless access to the internet through public Wi-Fi hotspots and high-speed 3G networks, laptops are expected to eventually hold two-thirds of the overall computer market.

Most of the action is happening at the smaller and slimmer end of the scale, with Intel cooking up tiny superchips to suit. The aptly named Atom processor, for example, can pack two million transistors into the full stop at the end of this line.

The Atom is the powerplant of "netbooks" - those compact Lilliputian laptops with screens about 23 centimetres and price tags hovering at the $700 mark. This year saw almost every major notebook manufacturer release at least one netbook model and already the range is diversifying to include models with larger screens (now up to 30 centimetres, in the case of Dell's Inspiron Mini 12) and stylishly thin designs (such as Asus's Eee PC S101).

Thin, light and good-looking also became the mantra for fully featured notebooks like Apple's MacBook Air, which made its stunning debut on the computing catwalk in January. Windows-based notebooks from Dell, HP, Toshiba and Lenovo have followed and the signs are that we'll see more of this head-turning hardware in the coming year.

HOME THEATRE

This was the year that the high definition fad actually became a wave rather than a gradually rising tide. The year began with an end to the "next-gen DVD war" as the Blu-ray format, backed by an ever-increasing roster of electronics manufacturers and Hollywood studios, swept over Toshiba's competing HD-DVD system. Toshiba threw in the towel and HD-DVD decks became the modern equivalent of the Beta video recorder.

March saw the launch of Nine HD, the last high-def channel from the free-to-air networks to go to air, while Foxtel launched its "HD+" service in May.

The long-awaited TiVo digital TV recorder arrived shortly after but was hobbled by an upfront price tag of $699 and the lack of its famed ability to skip TV advertisements.

Even with the Beijing Olympics to fuel HD TV sales, business was less brisk than expected. Many homes had already bought their large-screen telly in previous years, driven by events such as the football World Cup or simply the need to replace their boxy TV set.

All-in-one home theatre systems that included a Blu-ray player turned out to be the star of the show for 2008.

WEB

The Federal Government amped up its internet censorship policy, while at the same time pressing ahead with plans to build a new high-speed, fibre-based broadband network.

It soon became clear those goals were at odds with one another.

Despite vocal protests from internet providers, consumers, engineers, network administrators and online rights activists, the federal Communications Minister, Stephen Conroy, announced plans to impose a mandatory filter of "unwanted" internet content on all Australians. Critics of the scheme said it placed Australia in line with oppressive regimes such as Iran and China, it would not work, be patently simple to bypass and significantly degrade network speeds.

Google turned 10 in September, sparking renewed fears it is amassing too much information about web users and forming a stranglehold on virtually every aspect of the online world.

Those fears were crystalised in August when privacy activists raged at the Australian launch of Street View, which put images of most houses in the country on the web for anyone to explore using their PC.

If 2006-07 were the years Second Life came of age, 2008 was when it degenerated into a senile wreck.

The hype evaporated quickly and company bases in the virtual world were either shuttered or relegated to ghost town status.

At last count there were only 12,000 active Second Life users in Australia.

Meanwhile, Facebook officially hit the mainstream and dethroned MySpace as the dominant social network in Australia. Nielsen Online figures show Facebook first overtook MySpace in May, with 2.95 million unique Australian visitors compared with 2.61 million for MySpace.

SOFTWARE

The term "cloud computing" entered the mainstream lexicon as all of the major technology players jostled for a place in the new web-driven world, where data and applications are stored on the internet as opposed to on the PC. Apple and Microsoft unveiled their MobileMe and Live Mesh products respectively, which let users access their files from any internet-enabled device without having to worry about backing up.

Following the lead set by Google and its array of online services, Microsoft said it was working on an online version of Office, while Adobe unveiled Photoshop.com, allowing users to edit and store their pictures on the web.

Microsoft's leap into the cloud came as the company announced and released a test version of its next operating system, Windows 7, long before its planned 2010 shipping date.

The decision removed any incentive for average PC users to upgrade to Vista, which retained its reputation as a broken, buggy piece of software despite a multimillion-dollar marketing campaign by Microsoft featuring comedian Jerry Seinfeld and actress Eva Longoria.

The final nail in Vista's coffin came when private Microsoft emails, unearthed during a US court case, revealed that even the software giant's own executives struggled to get Vista running smoothly.

APPLE FLIES SOUTH

Apart from all the hoopla surrounding the iPhone launch, Apple had a huge year in Australia with the opening in June of its first flagship store in the southern hemisphere in Sydney (plus satellite stores in Melbourne and on Sydney's north shore a few months later.)

The main store, which features a facade of glass slabs 15 metres high, is the second largest Apple store in the world after Regent Street, London.

Situated on the corner of King and George streets in the city, the store became a magnet for Apple fans around the country and overseas in the days before the official opening, with many camping overnight to make sure they were among the first customers.

On opening night, a queue comprising thousands of fans and curious bystanders snaked its way from the entrance around the block. There was bedlam on the pavements of George Street as zero hour approached.

Like all Apple Stores, the Sydney shop was designed to make an architectural statement and no expense was spare. The glass slabs were imported from Germany, the stone floor from Italy, the brushed stainless steel walls came from Japan and the wooden tables were made from maple trees grown in Pennsylvania.

BIZTECH

On the corporate side, 2008 was dominated by Yahoo's over-acted and painfully protracted death rattle.

As the shares tanked, the workforce shrank and the talent fled, Yahoo's embattled co-founder and chief executive, Jerry Yang, finally hoisted the white flag in November, signalling his intention to step down.

Earlier in the year he had been the most vocal critic of Microsoft's $US47.5 billion ($72.5 billion) takeover offer, opting to join one-time arch rival Google in a search advertising partnership - from which Google later bailed out, fearing a legal challenge from government regulators.

Microsoft also experienced a regime change with chairman Bill Gates stepping down from his day-to-day role at the company he co-founded with Paul Allen in 1975.

Despite rumours that ill health might force Apple's Steve Jobs to do the same, a gaunt-looking Jobs denied he was suffering from a recurrence of pancreatic cancer and would soldier on.

As the year drew to a close and the worldwide credit crisis began to bite, Silicon Valley joined the rest of the US economy in shedding jobs.

Sun Microsystems, another one of the pioneers of the internet age, announced plans to cut 18 per cent of its workforce.

GAMES

Australia's appetite for interactive games continues to grow as titles are released to target new audiences such as women and older players.

Spending on games software and console hardware in 2008 was up 50 per cent, largely fuelled by the astonishing success of Nintendo's Wii and DS.

Video games used to be considered the sole domain of boys but the average age of Australian game players is now 30 and females make up 46 per cent of the gaming population. Games are also increasingly popular among mature audiences, with 52 per cent of Australians older than 50 playing regularly.

The highest selling game in Australia this year was the personal fitness trainer Wii Fit, demonstrating gaming's changing face. It outsold more traditional titles like Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.

Violent blockbuster Grand Theft Auto IV, which enjoyed more than $US500 million ($726 million) in sales worldwide in its first week, recorded the biggest opening for any entertainment product in history.

Other important stories in 2008 included the continuing battle for an R18+ games rating in Australia, the gradual shift towards online distribution of games and the user-generated content revolution epitomised by PlayStation 3's LittleBigPlanet, which lets players create their own fun levels.

Myspace Bully's sentences may mean changes for internet and law

2008-11-30T01:31:00.000-06:00

Three years and $300000 doesn't seem like enough punishment for a 49-year-old woman who made a fake Myspace with her daughter in order to manipulate and torment their emotionally fragile neighbor, coaxing her into suicide. However, that's as tough as the penalty gets because the jury knocked down felony charges and only convicted her of three misdemeanor counts of computer fraud.

The tech industry worries that if this verdict of "computer fraud" stands, it could mean that every site on the internet would be able to define the criminal law. Those small-stakes contracts members fill out (usually without reading) before joining any website may suddenly become high-stakes criminal prohibitions.

This could definitely be a big change, and likely not a good one either. So the balance of how to punish the bully without setting an unwanted precedent is tough.

What the jury should have done is drop the computer fraud charges and throw her in jail with a felony. Not allowing post-menopausal women to terrorize the neighborhood children seems like a verdict that certainly wouldn't hurt our way of life.

It seems wrong to make for a more difficult relationship between law and the internet just because of this one woman's actions, and yet it seems horrible to think of this same woman to be allowed to just go home without penalty after her actions have cost another mother to lose her daughter.

2008-11-25T14:46:00.000-06:00

Barack Hussein Obama II (pronounced /bəˈrɑːk hʊˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/; born August 4, 1961) is the President-elect of the United States and the first African American to be elected President of the United States. Obama was the junior United States Senator from Illinois from 2005 until he resigned on November 16, 2008, following his election to the Presidency.

He is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. Obama worked as a community organizer and practiced as a civil rights attorney before serving three terms in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. He also taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he announced his campaign for the U.S. Senate in January 2003, won a primary victory in March 2004, and was elected to the Senate in November 2004. Obama delivered the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004.

As a member of the Democratic minority in the 109th Congress, he helped create legislation to control conventional weapons and to promote greater public accountability in the use of federal funds. He also made official trips to Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. During the 110th Congress, he helped create legislation regarding lobbying and electoral fraud, climate change, nuclear terrorism, and care for U.S. military personnel returning from combat assignments in Iraq and Afghanistan.
