"There’s not a better time than now," said Steve Stoute, the founder and chief executive of Translation Consultation and Brand Imaging. Stoute works closely with entertainers and athletes, including Jay-Z and LeBron James, to help Fortune 500 corporations extend the companies’ marketing reach. He has written a book, "The Tanning of America: How Hip-Hop Created a Culture That Rewrote the Rules of the New Economy." He thinks that players — like many star actors — should have been negotiating for equity stakes a long time ago.#equitybaseddeal

In fact, the proportion of undergraduate degrees awarded annually in the liberal arts and sciences has been declining for a hundred years, apart from a brief rise between 1955 and 1970, which was a period of rapidly increasing enrollments and national economic growth. #college

I’m talking about the increasing number of employment ads that make it clear that all applicants must currently have a job. If you are unemployed, don’t even bother applying. People might have many different reactions to this, based on whether it is unfair to the applicant. #dumb
