NewPlugs.com Talks About A Runner Up For The Olympics

Former Northern Arizona Standout Seeks Olympic Berth
(6/23/2008) FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Former National Champion Lopez Lomong will begin his quest to make the 2008 United States Olympic team next week at the Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore. Lomong is scheduled to run July 3 in the quarterfinals for the 1,500m, an event he is considered among the contenders for the three Olympic team berths.
“Everything is going pretty well for the Trials coming up,” said Lomong. “I am healthy and everything is going well.” Lomong is among three athletes with ties to NAU at the Olympic Trials, including decathlete Lysias “Bubba” Edmonds and David Paul. Edmonds competed for the Lumberjacks from 2002-05 in both track and field and football, while Paul is a NAU graduate student who serves as a volunteer assistant coach for the track and field team. He competed at Eastern Washington and currently trains under NAU assistant Mohamad Saatara. Former NAU Head Coach Ron Mann is also a member of the track and field staff.“I am going to take it round by round,” said Lomong of his strategy. “I am running pretty good. You have to get out and stay out of trouble. I am learning with all the big guys out there. I am very excited.”Lomong was granted his United States citizenship last summer, officially recognized at his swearing last July 6 in Syracuse, New York. The 1,500m finals are scheduled for the one-year anniversary.“It would mean a lot not just for me but the people who have helped me through, my school and the community,” said Lomong. “It is my first Olympic Trials here and to make the team would be very big for me.”Lomong qualified with the Olympic “A” qualifying mark in the 1500-meter run May 19 at the adidas Track Classic, finishing fourth in a personal-best 3:36.36 behind two-time Olympic medalist and 2007 1500 World Champion Bernard Lagat, Nick Willis and Kevin Sullivan.Lomong was a nine-time Big Sky Conference champion.

Young Sports Talent

What's going on my NewPlugs community? The other day while handeling business on the web, actually I was making purchases on www.ilektroniks.com (my wife hates it when I spend money). I ran into a newly release web site called www.myhoopsite.com , I found it quite interesting because it allow users to upload their basketball video to get noticed by the world. It's always good to have tools like this because more attention to your skills the more you get noticed. At the same time it gives me great joy to know that www.newplugs.com will be released this summer, now what makes NewPlugs.com unique is that instead of just basketball every sport will have their day on the site. This allows people from across the globe to upload their future with the click of a button. I told my buddy John Lee out in Spain about it and he's excited as he plays La Crosse he said that the focus on the sport is very minimal. He said NewPLugs.com will allow the entire world to view the sport of La Crosse. Well check us out at www.NewPlugs.com and be repared to start sharing our vision.. Oh Yeah "UPLOAD YOUR FUTURE"

Conference call update for www.NewPlugs.com

I just got off of a conference call with my fellow co founders, Tom Hightower and Sharif Dyson. The call consisted of our progress thus far, new goals the release date.
Tom brought up some good points that we have made it this far because of all of our hard work and great direction from Sharif Dyson. Sharif has done a lot for the group as he will tel you. Actually his insight and publishing's can be found on http://www.fukkiit.com/ , he writes and post all kinds of tips to bring your web page into the public eye. For motivation purposes we always point out that we started out in the top 5 million sites, and with hard work we are now in the top 1.9 mil, so we all agree that we can't stop the hustle now as there will be another site trying to take our position.
We set some goals that pretty much remain consistent to what we are doing now but just more intense, meaning keep blogging, visiting other sites and leaving comments where needed, and continued networking. To sum it all up less sleep and more typing late nights and early mornings, and when we are done with that get right back on the grind.
We originally set for the end of summer to have http://www.newplugs.com/ up and fully running by the end of summer and we are currently on track. Well continue to check back with us and comment freely. "Upload Your Future" because only you control it. Oh yeah before I forget when you feel the need to splurjj check out http://www.splurjj.com/ , Sharif will tell you all about it. Tom decided to open up his cleaning business also so check out http://www.officialcleaninginc.com/ ....

High Gas Prices -- www.NewPlugs.com gets Political

Let's see if I have this right.
The government is giving everyone in America money and calling it a stimulus package in the hope that they'll use it to purchase products in order to spark the economy. Everyone in the U.S. knows the money is going to go toward a bill already owed, or into the bank for a rainy day.
Let me take a swing at this. Lower the cost of fuel, place a cap on fuel costs for a year or two. Regulate the oil companies and place a cap on fuel at $2.50 or less for highest fuel produced. This will not only reduce costs for consumers, it will help spark the nations economy.
Lowering the cost for transportation of products via trucking, which will lower the cost of products sold to the consumer, will get the country rolling again.
Everyone has to use their vehicles in order to get to work and make a living. If we have to save our money just in order to afford putting fuel in our vehicles, we are going to cut costs by giving up the homes we own. You can see this just in the foreclosures around the country. Then we have no choise but to turn around and rent a home or apartment to offset the high cost of fuel.
I believe the reason things have gotten so out of hand is the rising cost of fuel. The government stepped in when Micrsoft was making such a high profit, but won't step in on the oil companies holding the country up over a barrel? Something is not right with this picture. One man makes something great, and the government steps in wanting their cut. Maybe the reason the fuel prices are no big deal is because the government is getting some of the pie.
One more thing: I remember when everyone dreamed of owing their own home. Now everyone dreams of owning a vehicle they can afford.

Lakers vs. Celtics Game 2

Celtics up 2 - 0

Just think Laker fans, if we actually got just one call in the first half, look how much that would have affected the outcome of the game. I cant believe how much control these refs have. Quite possibly the worst officiating I have ever seen in my LIFE. No wonder its so hard to win at Boston, because the refs call the most bleeping fouls on the opposing teams and never call the same on the opposite side of the floor. Now its our turn to get the fouls so Boston fans will actually see where were coming from. Boston be prepared because you will get no love in Los Angeles, it's no where close to being over. Well LA I believe we have another rivalry on our hands, but I really don't believe Kobe is laughing as Magic is this time. Game 3 in Los Angeles, lets hope those bunny's land this time for Kobe.
