AC Transit should have read the accounts of what led to his being fired by HART, the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority, where he was CEO, in 2011. In reports David Armijo was described by whistleblower David Persaud as "Hostile and defensive with a nasty temper". On top of that Armijo's travel and expense record, and hiring practices and use of time were questioned. The HART Board grilled Armijo in the same way the AC Transit Board was about to before he jumped ship. So it's apparent that rather than face a déjà moment, Armijo said 'fuck it' and left AC Transit. The question is why did AC Transit ignore this? via IFTTT http://ift.tt/

Women's Bodybuilding Is A $5 Billion Industry

Women's Bodybuilding Is A $5 Billion Industry - Video Women's Bodybuilding Is A $5 Billion Industry Women's Bodybuilding is at a crossroads. At a time when more women than ever are competing in organized sports, and participating in fitness, and not fearing to show their biceps and present a strong female image, it seems the sport is under attack. The Arnold Classic stopped holding true women's bodybuilding contests. Female bodybuilders are not fairly compensated for their efforts at building their bodies. Moreover, they turn to paid website chatrooms, not out of any effort to meet their fans but for money and don't enjoy the interaction. Corporations don't flock to put their brand behind FBBs for money. The fact is all of that could change if FBBs ran themselves as a business. companies don't sports FBBs because no one approaches them with a promotional proposal.

The trailer's mood is dark, historic, and intense. Starting with a box given to Bond (Daniel Craig) by Ms Moneypenny (Naomi Harris) it is strangely punctuated by the appearance of the Aston Martin DB10, specially made for the film. The man in the black and white photo that Bond holds is Mr. Hinks, played by Dave Bautista. And at the end we are in a dark room of people and a group at the head table and presiding over all is the shadowy figure of Chistophe Waltz. Is he Blofeld?

It Follows Movie Review By Zennie Abraham

It Follows Movie Review By Zennie Abraham - Video It Follows Movie Review by Zennie Abraham It Follows is a creative but annoying horror movie that I walked out on. The film, written and directed by David Robert Mitchell, had its star Maika Monroe's character Jay acting silly. She is chased by some thing after having sex with a douche dude who then drugs her and ties her up and tells her about a curse he passed on to her after sex. I loved the actors and characters but one too many dumb scenes just pissed me off. Why can't Jay stay in the classroom where it's safe? Why can't she punch the fuck out of one of the things following her? Why does she have to run when she doesn't. Maybe I will see it again but then if I do it will only be to see Maika Monroe.
