Tom Joyner - Consider and think on NUD

Tom Joyner - Consider and think on these things.Tom Joyner wants this information to reach his listeners.. You have probably heard of "NUD" as a result of the Tom Joyner morning show related to CompUSA. NUD is the acronym for a very subtle and little-known marketing term specifically directed toward people of color.NUD stands for Non Urban Dictate. These three words essentially mean that a company is not interested in the Black consumer. A NUD label means that a company does not want their marketing and advertising materials placed in media that claim an urban audience (black folks) as their main target.There are legitimate reasons for companies not using urban radio. It may be that Blacks don't index high in certain categories or that a company's strategy is to market to the Black consumer down the road after they have established a strong position in their primary target.But NUD usually means that a company is not interested in the Black consumer. Companies evade discrimination liability by embracing it as theory rather than policy. As a service to Black consumers, the Urban Institute will list all companies that have a NUD policy. Armed with this information, we feel that Black consumers will be able to make informed buying decisions. 

Companies with NUD policies:
a. Starbucks                            b. Jos. A Bank                        c. CompUSA
d. Weight Watchers                e. Keebler                               f. Life Saversg. Continental Airlines

Under Surveillance - HATERS

Under Surveillance

Sorry I haven’t written in a while. Just been so busy and haven’t been able to catch up with myself. At my main job right now and on my cpu. Was trying to get to my Yahoo 360 blog page and what do you know? My access was blocked. I was able to get on there yesterday but I guess today they decided to put a lockdown on it. Kind of pissed off, but don’t care, that’s why I have 2 other blogs. So today my topic is about computer networking and surveillance; what are the pros and cons.

Pros of course you can tell what people are doing.
Cons of course you can tell what people are doing.

That’s all I have to say about that……for now.

Friends make the world go round

Good morning;) yesterday was Labor Day, and even though I was off from one job, I still had to go into the OTHER one and work a 6 hour shift. I didn't like it but hey, it's a check. Afterwards I went to say bye to my best friend from out of town, and we ended up talking for a couple of hours. About relationships, friendships, and other things. We were also reminiscing about how we met and how much we value our friendship.
