Serena Williams Engaged To Reddit's Alexis Ohanian: Black Woman In Tech, Thankfully

Serena Williams Engaged To Reddit's Alexis Ohanian: Black Woman In Tech, Thankfully Video

Serena Williams Engaged To Reddit Co-Founder Alexis Ohanian: Black Woman In Tech, Thankfully Serena Williams is engaged to Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian. First, congratulations to both Ms. Williams and Mr. Ohanian. Second, thank you, very much, Alexis for proving what I have said for some time: that the best way to end the tech diversity problem is for white men and women in tech to date blacks in, and in this case out of, tech. Let's face it: the tech diversity problem wasn't just white guys selecting people who looked like them to work with, it was white women (in and out of tech) seeking out white men in tech, too. Take the classic example of Gawker's once-favorite subject Julia Allison, who was known for her trips to tech shin-digs ostensibly to report on them, but really to allegedly hook up with a white tech guy. If you're a black guy in tech, like me, the one constant you experienced was the silent ostracism from white women at a tech party. (And if it wasn't that, and you're a black person who's an early-adopter of tech, then it was being ignored by white tech guys at firms building social media platforms, where they didn't place you on their suggested users list because you weren't a rapper or an athlete. That happened to me, too – and others complained about it.) While the good news is that the problem is less today than it was when Julia was ruling the party scene (and to be fair she took issue with my observation, even though I stood by it, still do, and it was echoed in other publications), it is still an issue as of this writing. The fact is white guys in tech as much picked out a white woman to be a part of their group, as the white woman presented herself to be a part of that group. There are many examples of tech couples formed from a white guy in a company dating a white woman in the same organization. Some of these couples have went on to start other tech companies. And if the woman wasn't white, then she was Asian, and the same dynamic applied, and still does: an Asian woman seeking out a white tech guy, who in turn also wants Asian women. This racial dynamic, much talked about but seldom covered in media, forms the under-pinning of the tech diversity problem. Who a person in a tech organization chooses to be-friend, or date, or marry, says as much for who they will seek out to hire to be a part of their firm as anything else. And that's why Serena Williams getting engaged to Alexis Ohanian is such a huge deal. It sends a powerful signal that blacks are part of tech. Now, everytime a Reddit event happens, there will be a large number of people wanting to get a glimpse of the couple. And when they do, the symbol of them out at a tech even together will be all that's needed to stop the segregation that's plagued the startup community, particularly in San Francisco. The other powerful signal here is that no one person, man or woman, is 'owned' by those who share the same skin type. Thus, white women in tech can't lay claim to white men. White men in tech can't say that white women in tech belong to them. And black men in entertainment and athletics can't lay claim to a black woman like Serena Williams, either. And still another powerful signal are to Asians in tech – and specifically women: white tech guys aren't sitting around waiting for them today as much as in years past. While some may find my take racist, it's not – it's race conscious. It reflects what I've personally seen in the same San Francisco Bay Area Tech Community that Alexis is a part of and Serena is joining. It points to the heart of the problem of diversity in tech. Serena Williams will not necessary be a protestors of tech firms that are not diverse, but considering that she's not silent on the problem of police killings of young black men, she just may say something that points to the need for tech to be more inclusive of blacks. Have doubts? Remember, the WIRED magazine edition she guest edited in 2015? The one titled “Serena Williams helping shift diversity-bias in the tech industry” That's just a taste of a new tech future with Serena and Alexis. And for that, I say, thank you.

The Oakland Fruitvale SF Bay Area Lead Problem – Councilmember Abel Guillen Gives Update

The Oakland Fruitvale SF Bay Area Lead Problem – Councilmember Abel Guillen Gives Update Video

The Oakland Fruitvale SF Bay Area Lead Problem – Councilmember Abel Guillen Gives Update The Oakland lead poisoning problem that a Reuters report pointed to, is based on an analysis of data who's overall spread is so incomplete that it points to a much larger problem that's both regional and national in scope. In the San Francisco Bay Area, The Oakland Fruitvale District is pointed to as the seat of a problem where the city is said to have greater lead levels than found in the water in Flint, Michigan. But an actual read of the Reuters data map (http://ift.tt/2hquJmB) shows that adjacent areas of Oakland where home design and age is similar, like the San Antonio District, have no data – in fact all other census tracts in Oakland dont' have information attached to them in the Reuters map. Beyond Oakland, San Francisco's Bayview Hunters Point and Daily City area census tracts form what is best to call a 'zone of concern' (this blogger's term) twice the size of The Oakland Fruitvale District. And the problem doesn't stop there: looking at the map, Burlingame, East Palo Alto, San Jose, Hayward, and Stockton have census tract areas that form more 'zones of concern' – and incomplete data collection, because “no data” messages are replete. In other words, and to repeat the basic message, to say this is an Oakland Fruitvale problem wildly diminishes the truth. We have to ask why the whole of East Oakland, and the Oakland Hills both north and south, don't have data? With that, still, we have the Fruitvale lead issue, and with that, this statement by Oakland District Two Councilmember Abel Guillen, posted on Facebook this morning: Most of you have probably read troubling stories this week about a report that found high levels of exposure to lead among many Fruitvale residents. I have had inquiries from a number of Council District 2 residents concerned about similar health risks in their neighborhoods. I want to give you a quick update. We spoke with staff at the Alameda County Lead Poisoning Prevention Program, and we will be meeting together soon to deal with problem properties in my district. The County has $2.9 million in federal HUD Hazard Control funds to spend on residential lead-abatement projects. Working with County health officials, I will help coordinate the identification of potential properties for these grants in District 2 #OakD2 #Oakland and recruit 100 families to receive this financial support to clean up their buildings in the next year. We are also seeking to get more complete and accurate information about the exposure levels and how to best remediate the source of the potential health impacts moving forward. County officials have indicated that the data in the Reuters news story is four years old (and exposure levels may have gone down in the intervening years), and they are working on researching and clarifying the current situation. Also, EBMUD reports that Oakland’s water is NOT lead-contaminated. http://ift.tt/2hFcxuA While the health dangers are real, this is not a Flint, Michigan, situation. From what we know, the source is principally soil contamination and lead from paint used in older buildings. I will keep you posted on new scientific information as it arises and local efforts to help eliminate these health risks. Stay tuned.

CES 2017 Features Zennie62 Partnering With Oakland Post, Sigma Technologies Global (http://zennie62blog.com http://ift.tt/1WbzspF http://Sigma-AI.com CES 2017 features Zennie62Media's 8th straight year covering the World's largest consumer tech-driven convention in Las Vegas. Over that time, Zennie Abraham's Zennie62 YouTube Channel has posted more CES Las Vegas-related video-blogs than any other single person or media outlet. This year, Zennie62 is joined by two sponsor partners: The Oakland Post and Sigma Technologies Global. The Oakland Post, founded in 1963, is the first large African American newspaper established on the West Coast. Today, the Post News Group, which houses The Oakland Post, is the largest African American weekly newspaper in Northern California. Serving the San Francisco Bay Area communities of Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, Marin, South County, and San Francisco, the weekly Post newspapers reports and advances the issues and events impacting those identified communities. Zennie Abraham will post many times during CES 2017 from the Oakland Post website, augmenting his Zennie62 blog, YouTube channel, and network of 96 blogs, 15 of which seat his YouTube videos and content exported from Zennie62.com. In turn, the Zennie62.com blog, or Zennie62blog.com, one of the most read blogs at CES annually, will be the seat for an exciting media technology project. And this is where Sigma Technologies Global comes in. The technology Zennie Abraham is bringing to CES 2017 for demonstration is such that YouTube videos that are already automatically embedded in Zennie62blog.com, will be enhanced by Sigma Technologies Global speech-to-text technology, and in a special way. The text from the video will be printed out on the blog – you won't have to go to the Zennie62 YouTube video page to read text, let alone try and find it, thus leaving the blog page! Moreover, the Sigma Technologies Global system is such that advertisements will appear depending on the keyword in the text produced as a result of the video's audio – thus giving the blog a new revenue generation area! The demo will show what's next for Zennie62 – and we're seeking investors for our project. If you have an interest in what we're doing and are a tech investor or vendor who may have a complementary technology or platform, even if you're not at CES 2017, send an email to zennie@zennie62.com See you at CES 2017

Ronda Rousey Robbed In UFC 207 TKO Loss To Amanda Nunes 48 Seconds Yes. Ronda Rousey was robbed of a victory by not being allowed to finish the UFC 207 fight against Amanda Nunes. The fight was called after just 48 seconds. Why not let her finish? She did not hit the ground. She should have been given a choice to go or no go. Then if it was obvious she could not go again, then call it - but Ronda Rousey should have been given another chance.

The only good news for Ronda Rousey was that she took home $3 million versus $100,000 for Nunes. Other than that it was Amanda's night. She played a stand up, street fighting,attack game and kept Rousey on her heels. But with that and the flurry of punches that led to a TKO call, Rousey never actually fell down or was close to it.

Ronda Rousey Will Beat Amanda Nunes, Comeback from Holly Holm Loss, In UFC 207 Friday

Ronda Rousey Will Beat Amanda Nunes, Comeback from Holly Holm Loss, In UFC 207 Friday Video

Ronda Rousey Will Beat Amanda Nunes, Comeback from Holly Holm Loss, In UFC 207 Friday Yes, Ronda Rousey will beat Amanda Nunes in UFC 207 Friday. The reason is simple: Ronda's battle with extreme depression after her last fight, a 2015 loss to Holly Holm that shocked everyone, including Holly Holm herself. But the way back from that loss to Holm was anything but smooth for Rousey. I'm reminded of the 23rd Psalm which says "“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." I think Ronda got stuck in the valley and feared evil, and forgot her way. The way out of the valley took her through a tough battle with self-doubt and depression. It didn't help that some fans of the sport of ultimate fighting seemed to turn on her. All of this, and more, has caused her to look in the mirror and ask what's important to her - and by training for this fight, by doing this fight, she's answered that part of what is a compound question: Can I do this and do I want this and can I deal with it if I lose? Ronda Rousey doesn't want to get to a point of having to answer the last part of the query, and so she's trained like hell - and her body shows it. She's not at all weighted down with fat. Not like she was the early part of last year, when a bit of the results of living the good life started to show up in a bit of a chunky way. Nope, now Ronda Rousey looks jacked and ready for battle against a woman who believes that even Ronda thinks she will beat her - Amanda Nunes. Who will win? Well, I said it: Ronda Rousey will walk out of the valley of the shadow of death on Friday. Stay tuned.

Zsa Zsa Gabor Funeral By Frederic von Anhalt Draws Anger Debbie Reynolds, Celebrities Used For Publ

Zsa Zsa Gabor Funeral By Frederic von Anhalt Draws Anger Debbie Reynolds, Celebrities Used For Publ Video

Zsa Zsa Gabor Funeral By Frederic von Anhalt Draws Anger Debbie Reynolds, Celebrities Used For Publicity Yes. “Zsa Zsa Gabor Funeral by Frederick VonAnhalt Draws Anger: Debbie Reynolds, Celebrities Used For Publicity” is the correct headline. A funeral planned for December 30th and by Frederick VonAnhalt, the last husband of famous actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, who passed away last Sunday, has drawn fire as the names of a number of celebrities, including the now-late Debbie Reynolds (who passed away on Wednesday, and one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher died) were used simply for publicity, as if it were some kind of party or Hollywood movie premier. Public relations representatives of a number of top stars in Hollywood have joined together to ask that the names of their clients be removed from what is being called a “false media list” by Edward Lozzi, who was the PR rep for Ms. Gabor and for Francesca Gabor Hilton. “The 'False Media List' is being sent to news agencies and celebrity publicists by the producers of this event containing the names of stars who have no intention of attending due to obvious circumstances,” Lozzi explains. Lozzi asks “As per direction of Larry King, please remove Larry King’s name from the list as well as Ruta Lee ,who will be on a cruise in Mexico waters. Also please remove Debbie Reynolds (our client). Also remove Barbara Eden, Carol Channing and George Hamilton as per their request!!!! They did not give permission to use their names and are not pleased. They are NOT attending. There will be others from their list who we are verifying will NOT be attending.” And according to New York Post Page Six, Shaun King, the wife of Larry King said she was “shocked, sickened and angry” at recalling what she called a “chilling” birthday party Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt threw for his wife “a few years ago,” where she claims Gabor was “on display” for guests in a hospital bed – as she was incapacitated. Ms. King said “That ‘husband’ of hers had her on display for us [and] only wanted a photo op for himself. We left quickly, feeling sad, shocked, sickened and angry. Somehow the photo showed up in the tabloids. I was mortified.”.

Debbie Reynolds Dead Of Stroke One Day After Carrie Fisher Her Daughter Passes

Debbie Reynolds Dead Of Stroke One Day After Carrie Fisher Her Daughter Passes Video

Ok. “Debbie Reynolds Dead Of Stroke One Day After Carrie Fisher, Her Daughter, Passes”. Think about that. Debbie Reynolds was taken to a hospital just after 1 PM PST when someone at the Beverly Hills home of her son, Todd Fisher, called 911 to report whas was said to be a possible stroke. According to TMZ, Debbie and Todd were making funeral plans for Carrie Fisher, who died Tuesday of a heart attack – just the day before. Debbie Reynolds was an amazing actress, dancer, and celebrity. She was most famous for “Singing In The Rain”, and my personal favorite, the animated movie “Charlotte's Web.” Ms. Reynolds was the picture of the 1950s wholesome image of the smiling, captivating woman who had something nice to say about everything and everyone. Debbie Reynolds won my Mom's heart when she divorced her husband Eddie Fisher in 1959 and after his affair with Elizabeth Taylor. Ms. Reynolds went on to marry again in 1960 and 1984. Debbie Reynolds played unforgetable roles in "Tammy and the Bachelor", "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" (for which she earned an Academy Award nomination), and in “Charlotte's Web.” Her daugher Carrie's relationship with her was the subject of Carrie's autobiography "Postcards from the Edge," which was later a movie starring Meryl Streep and Shirley MacLaine. Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher are survived by her son and Carrie's brother Todd Fisher and her Grandaughter Billie Lourd. What stays with me is the idea that Debbie Reynolds basically willed herself to pass on an join her daughter in Heaven. That's what that was about. Daughters and sons should never die before their parents. It's not the way things are supposed to go. Stop and think about this, and Debbie and Carrie – and Todd and Billie. All too often today, we coldly remark on these events with a comment very much like a friend of mine shockingly texted to me after Carrie Fisher passed away: “It happens...” Well, we know that, but that does not at all mean we're supposed to have no feelings about it. Something is wrong. Too many talented people are passing away at middle age: Prince, George Michael, Stuart Scott, and many more over the last year. Are we working too much? Is the 'International Division of Labor', where jobs are offshored and we have to work more to make the same money, killing our society? Personally, I think so. And we better improve our way of life, before it's too late. Stay tuned.

New Year's Eve 2017 Oakland CA Things To Do - The Alley, Geoffrey's Inner Circle New Year's Eve 2017 Oakland, CA Things To Do: The Alley, Geoffrey's Inner Circle New Year's Eve can't get here fast enough for Oakland and for the United States, for that matter. And if you're new to Oakland, you're probably thinking you have to go to San Francisco to have some NYE fun. Well, no – you don't. There's stuff to do in Oakland. So, you're probably, no certainly, in the middle of trying to figure out what you want to do, but wondering if it's too late to get into one place or the other considering this is the middle of the last week of 2016. Well, fear not. Here's Zennie Abraham's blog and Zennie62 vlog post of some things to do in Oakland, California to ring in 2017 and ring out the hated 2016. The Alley at 3325 Grand Avenue The Alley at 3325 Grand Avenue is my personal favorite place to go in Oakland for New Year's Eve. The newly designated Oakland Landmark and National Landmark has been open since 1931 and was once a speakeasy. In the recent past, The Official Oakland Landmark Rod Dibble held court at the piano (since 1963) and managed to keep all of the hot, tipsy ladies entertained through the evening and past midnight. This weekend, the piano's still the place to be and with a set of talented players like Paul Hlebcar and Jeff Labes. Geoffrey's Inner Circle Has “New Year's Eve with Syd & Friends” If you think you'll sing badly at The Alley, perhaps you'd rather take in a show, but think there's nothing going on in Downtown Oakland. Think again. Geoffrey's Inner Circle, the long-time-open nightclub and lounge at 410 14th Street (near the corner of 14th and Broadway) features “New Year's Eve with Syd & Friends.” The production established by “Wine &Bowties” features local Oakland performers Syd, Duckwrth, Rayana Jay, Neto, B-Side Brujas, Fela Kutchi, and Namaste Shawnty. You can buy tickets here: http://ift.tt/2ijKfFy Oaktown Private Reserve at Eve's Waterfront, Oakland Eve's Waterfront Restaurant, located at 15 Embarcadero West, has live music and a champagne toast at midnight. The featured performer is the group “Oaktown Private Reserve”, a well-known R&B, Funk, and smooth jazz band. The show starts at 8 and goes to 1 AM; you can get tickets here: http://ift.tt/2iguOeN Oakland NYE Timba Party at Oakland Baobab The Oakland Baobab at 381 15th Street in Oakland, is a great African restaurant by day, and a cool dance club by night. For New Year's Eve, the eatery features a Cuban Dance Party with DJ WaltDigz spinning tunes. Go early for dinner – then stay late for the dancing. Rocksteady 1741 San Pablo Ave has DJ Ball D & Pam the Funktress As its promoters write “Ok we are getting the NYE weekend started Friday! DJ Ball D & Pam the Funktress spinning hosted by Earl & Dame. No cover inside Rocksteady 1741 San Pablo Ave. Flashing back and dropping hits all night! It's a Capricorn Takeover! Then Saturday night we going all the way up!

Book your reservation today as space is limited,” here: http://ift.tt/2ijLGUp Bar Hoping In Uptown And Downtown Oakland? Use The Free Shuttle If you just plan to bar-hop in Uptown and Downtown Oakland, for God's sakes, don't drink and drive, use the Free Downtown Oakland Shuttle Bus. Operated by AC Transit and The City of Oakland, the shuttle runs in a loop from Jack London Square / Embarcadero West to Broadway and 27th Street, and between 6 pm and 1 am. Home of Chicken and Waffles Oakland Serving To 4 am New Year's Day And if you're wondering who's open and serving great meals after closing time and into New Year's Day in Oakland, got to Home of Chicken and Waffles at 444 Embarcadero West next to Jack London Square – they're serving until 4 am.

Oakland Will Sue The Raiders If NFL Approves Las Vegas Move

Oakland Will Sue The Raiders If NFL Approves Las Vegas Move Video

Oakland Will Sue The Raiders If NFL Approves Las Vegas Move The City of Oakland and the County of Alameda will sue the Oakland Raiders if the National Football League approves the a move to Las Vegas. That news comes from an effort long in planning and triggered by the actions of Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis. Davis actions have been found to not follow even the NFL's policy of good faith dealing. Moreover NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said that it's partly the Raiders own fault that they don't have a new stadium in Oakland. Davis will be in for a fight if he continues to do what some see as kick sand in the collective face of Oakland. Stay tuned.

Rogue One A Star Wars Story Has CGI Peter Cushing Video

Rogue One A Star Wars Story Has CGI Peter Cushing Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is playing at the Grand Lake Theater Oakland, and opened to a packed house on Thursday night. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was, indeed, a different kind of Star Wars, but the meaning of “different” here was in the use of computer-generated-images of characters – mostly notably Peter Cushing. You have to see Rogue One: A Star Wars Story just to examine how Peter Cushing looked as a computer-generated person: at times cartoonish, other times frighteningly realistic. It was during the “frighteningly realistic” segments of the movie that this blogger feared for the future of actors in movies – it was that good. Overall, Rogue One was not just a good Star Wars movie, but a great film and especially toward the end. This blogger will not give away the plot, but it's important that you watch Star Wars: Episode One before you see Rogue One. Stay tuned.

Libby Schaaf, Oakland Mayor, Disputes NFL's Eric Grubman On Stadium Deal

Libby Schaaf, Oakland Mayor, Disputes NFL's Eric Grubman On Stadium Deal Video

Libby Schaaf, Oakland Mayor, Disputes NFL's Eric Grubman On Stadium Deal Eric Grubman, the NFL's Executive Vice President for Business Affairs, has both upset and ignited an Oakland Community determined to keep its Oakland Raiders. Oakland's collective raw emotions in the wake of the tragic Oakland Fire (and the large number of every-day people from our community who were killed in it) were stirred by the surprisingly politically tone-deaf comments of the League's point person on new stadiums. On Tuesday, Grubman blasted the deal crafted by the Oakland City Pro Football Group (which consists of Ronnie Lott, Rodney Peete, Marcus Allen, Bill Duffy, and Fortress Investments) as being like the previous years Floyd Kephart deal. Considering that Grubman and Kephart didb't see eye-to-eye, whereas the current group of people have the highest respect for him, his suddenly negative take on a deal many believed he was hand's on in crafting is strange. What does Grubman mean when he says that Oakland should not have made a deal with a third party other than the Raiders, when Sheldon Adelson's a third party in Las Vegas, as would be Goldman Sachs, even without Mr. Adelson in the picture, as one possible deal scenario has it? Is Eric Grubman motivated to steer the Raiders to Las Vegas by the $750 million Nevada subsidy and the money it could make for Goldman Sachs, his former employer? Does the fact that Oakland's barred Goldman Sachs from doing any business with the city provide extra incentive? While these questions are painful to ask of the NFL's man-who-served-our-country (and for whom this blogger has a great deal of personal respect), they must be asked, even if they don't get an answer. And why did Grubman, even after spending time with Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, and numerous phone calls, trips, and emails, elect to drop a political bomb by saying that the NFL wasn't consulted about the disposition of the land? Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf told me that the NFL's Grubman never asked or expressed an interest in the Coliseum land. While that runs counter to last year's news that the League was interested in developing on and owning Coliseum land, it's not hard to think that Oakland's blocking Goldman Sachs is playing a role in these sudden problems with a league that has become the investment banking firm's sports gravy train. So now, the Raiders are in a mess: they have no deal in Las Vegas, but pretend all is well. On Thursday, Clark County Supervisor Steve Sisolak tweeted that he had a “great meeting” with Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis and Adelson, but the simple fact he had to tweet that indicated the existence of a big problem between Davis and Adelson to start with – and that the issue is still unresolved. But the Raiders do have a good deal in Oakland with The Lott Group and with Fortress Investments, and one that allows them, and the NFL, to collect development revenues over time, and enjoy a 99 year ground lease. All of this in a much larger media market than Vegas. And in a City, Oakland, that really does deserve some good news. The Oakland Fire has produced a giant spiritual hole in its center. I went to my favorite Oakland hang-out, The Alley Thursday night, and for the first time in weeks, and learned that a regular by the name of Ben Runnels died in the fire. I've seen Ben enough to remember who he is, but what I did not know was that he was in a performing group called “Introflirt, and teamed with Nicole Renee Siegrist. Nicole also worked at the Grand Lake Theater as assistant manager – she sold me my ticket to see MARVEL's Doctor Strange a few weeks ago. She too died in the Oakland Fire. There's no reason Oakland has to endure all of this pain. If the NFL and the Oakland Raiders had any heart at all, they would stop this silly relocation game, stop hurting our City's pride, and help heal our community by building a new stadium here. Stay tuned.

Is NFL Punishing Oakland In Raiders Stadium Deal For Barring Goldnan Sachs?

Is NFL Punishing Oakland In Raiders Stadium Deal For Barring Goldnan Sachs? Video

Is NFL Punishing Oakland In Raiders Stadium Ronnie Lott Deal For Barring Goldnan Sachs? The NFL commonly does business with Goldman Sachs and in the case of the Raiders Las Vegas issue, a man named Greg Carey is the well-regarded representative of the firm. He and Goldman have been involved with 28 different NFL stadium deals. Also NFL EVP for Business Affairs Eric Grubman also worked for Goldman Sachs and knows Carey. And now the reports have been that the Raiders are working with Goldman on an alternative that will ex-out Las Vegas Sands CEO - the man who brought Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis to Las Vegas, and got the $750 million subsidy from the Nevada Legislature for him. There is another factor that may be pushing The NFL to consider The Goldman, Greg Carey, Las Vegas Stadium Financing Plan: Goldman Sachs is barred from doing business with the City of Oakland. The decision was the result of a swap option bond issue that the Oakland City Council voted for but my boss Oakland Mayor Elihu Harris voted against and upon my recommendation. The bond issue that was supposed to get us money wound up costing Oakland millions. And Goldman had been pedaling that type of issue around the country, with similar results. For the NFL to allow this situation to exist is terrible. It may not want Fortress Investments involved but since Oakland has banned Goldman, the league has to come forward with an alternative company and plan for Oakland. Stay tuned.

City Of Oakland Confirms Raiders As Development Partner In Lott NFL Stadium Plan

City Of Oakland Confirms Raiders As Development Partner In Lott NFL Stadium Plan Video

City Of Oakland Confirms Raiders As Development Partner In Lott NFL Stadium Plan City Of Oakland Confirms Raiders As Development Partner In Lott Stadium Plan A City of Oakland Official on the Oakland Raiders / Ronnie Lott Stadium Proposal just told me that, indeed, and as written in the term sheet and staff report, the plan was designed to “leave open the possibility of making the Raiders a partner in the receipt of future development revenues” from whatever is built on the Coliseum land after it's turned over to the Lott Group. (The plan also leaves open a way for the Lott Group and Fortress to work with the Oakland Athletics at the Coliseum, should the team elect to stay there, and not build at, say, Howard Terminal.) “We wanted to give the Lott Group as much flexibility as possible in working with the Raiders and the NFL, and didn't want to get in the way,” he said. I also asked about the much talked about drawings for a new stadium. According to my source, they don't exist, sort of: “What is here are the drawings from last year's work with (architect) JRDV,” he said, and referring to the Floyd Kephart version of the Oakland Raiders Stadium Plan. But once the Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) is passed on Tuesday, and we expect it to pass, then that (making new stadium drawings) will be the responsibility of the Lott Group,” he reported to me. The mention of Floyd Kephart led to a conversation about what happened to his effort to secure a stadium deal. Mr. Kephart was first part of another group which included, at one point, Colony Capital, but Eric Grubman, The National Football League's business affairs point person, grumbled that they were focused more on a “land deal than a stadium deal.” My source said that, as much as The City of Oakland liked working with Kephart, “he didn't have or want to deal with the proforma side of the project – the economics. He was stuck on wanting to get a land appraisal. By the time we convinced him to look at and do a proforma, it was too late.” My sources added that, by contrast, with Lott and Fortress Investments, that issue doesn't exist. The other problem that stalled the Floyd Kephart version of the Oakland Raiders Stadium Plan was Kephart's assertion that he had the monetary resources to finance the plan, when in point of fact, he did not. “He would talk about his resources, but when it came time to present them he backed off, said my source. “Floyd believed it was not the City's business to inquire how much money he had access to,” he added. And so, Kephart's time working on the project came to an end; now it's Lott's turn. On tomorrow, Tuesday, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors and the Oakland City Council are expected to pass the new Exclusive Negotiating Agreement with the Oakland City Pro Football Group LLC, and on what many Oakland Raiders fans call a “historic day” in Raiders history. Meanwhile, Pro Football Talk has reported that Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis is having a “hard time” coming to a deal agreement with Las Vegas Sands CEO Sheldon Adelson. Stay tuned.
