Chad Ochocinco kicks against New England

The tweets were blowing up about this the other night. Nice form and nice results, but I think the announcers are right. It’s going to be hard to live with Chad after this successful performance.

Transit video contest(s)

I have recently been made aware of not one, but two video contests going on for transit causes. The first is sponsored by Cincinnatians for Progress and is asking people to submit videos through YouTube that, “describe why Cincinnati should vote NO on the charter amendment.” CFP is asking that links to the YouTube videos be sent to cincinnatiansforprogress@gmail.com.

CFP will then share the best videos with Cincinnati’s online community, local news media and the winning video will be shown at a special screening event and might even be used in a TV commercial this fall to help defeat the Anti-Passenger Rail Amendment.

The next video contest is being sponsored by the American Public Transit Association and is asking for people to submit videos about why they “dumped the pump.” Winning entries in the Dump The Pump Video Contest are eligible to win a year of free transit, an iPod touch and $25 VISA cash cards. Entries must be submitted by September 18th.

Mia Carruthers and Taking the Stage picked up for second season

I will forever be a celebrity in my own head after the back/side of my head was featured prominently in Mia Carruthers‘ debut music video that came from Taking The Stage’s first episode. At the very end of the video is when I make my move and get a full frontal with the camera as I head back out onto McMillan Street. After we heard Mia perform this song a good six times everyone at Baba Budan’s knew the lyrics.

What makes all this relevant is that Taking The Stage has reportedly been picked up for a second season, and will still have the popular Mia Carruthers on the show with several other yet to be announced cast members. So be on the lookout for MTV’s film crews at a random spot around town, because you too could be the next Randy Simes.

If you have trouble viewing the embedded video below, you can watch the video directly on MTV’s site here.
