Jarrod Massey: FBI may be pursuing as many as 20 more people in a corruption investigation | Birmingham News

Posted by The Meck 

Jarrod Massey: FBI may be pursuing as many as 20 more people in a corruption investigation | al.com

excerpt ..
Former Country Crossing lobbyist Jarrod Massey said this afternoon that there might be as many as 20 other targets of a corruption investigation that FBI agents may pursue after the State House vote-buying trial. 

Massey disclosed the tidbit this afternoon during his cross-examination, but no additional information was given. 

This was not the first time the idea that this trial might not be the end to the investigation has come up during testimony. Country Crossing developer Ronnie Gilley said previously on the witness stand that he probably would be asked to testify during other trials.

Why some dissatisfied users are shunning Facebook -- CNN

Why some dissatisfied users are shunning facebook -- CNN / by Blake Snow

excerpt ..
(CNN) -- There's no denying the cultural impact of Facebook. It has united almost 700 million people, including most of you reading this, becoming the greatest social introduction platform the world has ever seen.

But there are also some recent signs of "Facebook fatigue." There is only so much you can do to socialize online, especially after you've exhausted your friend list. Some people also complain they're spending so much time on Facebook that they're short-changing the rest of their lives.

Evidence suggests a small but increasing number of users -- at least in North America, where Facebook use is especially saturated -- may be shunning the site. The site lost more than 7 million active users in the United States and Canada last month, according to data from the blog Inside Facebook, although Facebook disputes those figures.

Others are consciously reducing the time they spend on the site.

Dothan city school board approves contract for new superintendent - Dothan Eagle
excerpt ..

The Dothan City School Board approved a three-year employment contract on Monday for new city school superintendent Tim Wilder.

The contract sets base pay and other terms of Wilder’s employment, and includes performance incentives.

Under the contract, Wilder will be paid $141,000 for his first year as superintendent, $148,000 for his second year and $155,000 for his third year.

Wilder currently makes $100,000 per year as superintendent of the Gulf County Schools in Florida. Current Dothan City School Superintendent Sam Nichols said Monday that he currently makes about $147,000.

Wilder’s contract also sets up performance incentives for the new superintendent.

Bud Selig rejects Dodgers TV contract, nullifying McCourt divorce deal - LATimes

Bud Selig rejects Dodgers TV contract, nullifying McCourt divorce deal - LATimes / Bill Shaikin

excerpt ..
Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig on Monday rejected a proposed television contract between the Dodgers and Fox Sports, invalidating a divorce settlement between Frank and Jamie McCourt and all but challenging Frank McCourt to surrender the team or sue.

Selig rejected the contract on the first business day after the McCourts announced a settlement contingent upon approval of that contract.
Selig did not strip Frank McCourt of ownership of the Dodgers. But McCourt has said for months that approval of the Fox contract was critical for the Dodgers' financial health.

Photos: The Dodgers and the McCourts

In a statement released by Major League Baseball, Selig said he had provided McCourt "an expansive analysis of my reasons for rejecting this proposed transaction." Specifically, the statement mentioned that the Dodgers-Fox deal was "structured to facilitate the further diversion of Dodgers assets for the personal needs of Mr. McCourt."

One provision of a divorce settlement reached last week between McCourt and ex-wife Jamie would have diverted almost half the immediate payment on the television contract to them and their attorneys. The upfront payment was to be $385 million, with up to $173.5 million reserved for the McCourts and their attorneys.

ICANN to allow new generic 'dot-brand' domains -- CNNMoney

Posted by The Meck

excerpt ..
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The trusty old Internet addresses we know and love -- the .coms, .nets, .orgs -- are about to get some new competition.

Global Internet regulators met Monday in Singapore to finalize rules for a major expansion of "generic top-level domains," that will clear the way for new offerings like .law, .coke or .nyc. Sites with those endings are expected to start rolling out late next year.

"Today's decision will usher in a new Internet age," said Peter Dengate Thrush, chairman of ICANN's Board of Directors. "We have provided a platform for the next generation of creativity and inspiration."

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers -- the non-profit, global coordinator of the Internet's naming system -- has for years been kicking around the idea of suffixes for brand names, cities and general keywords.

The Marlins hire McKeon. When does a team call Bobby Cox? -- Mark Bradley / AJC.com

Posted by The Meck

excerpt ..
Edwin Rodriguez resigned as Florida’s manager Sunday. The job has been filled  by the cigar-smoking Jack McKeon, who’s 80. What I’m wondering: How long before some team with a vacancy makes a run at a cigar aficionado who’s a spry 70?

“Nobody’s going to hire me,” Bobby Cox said Monday, speaking via iPhone. “I’m too young. I’ve got to earn my spurs first.”

About McKeon, Cox said: “Jack’s full of life and energy. Every time he’s come back — in Cincinnati and with Florida — he’s won.”

Let the record reflect that Robert Joseph Cox did some winning himself — 15 division titles, 16 playoff appearances, five National League pennants, one World Series title. He retired last fall, but he remains one of the most respected figures the game has known. And so I wondered: Has any club issued a feeler as to Cox’s interest in managing again?
