AEG BRINGS ON DEVELOPMENT PARTNER - http://ow.ly/3OC12

Leiweke also is expected to announce that the prominent real estate investment management firm MacFarlane Partners has agreed to become substantial investors in the $900 million hotel/condominium tower. [That’s nice…MacFarlane was almost entirely funded by a grant from LACER (pension money) to invest in minority urban areas that needed emergency redevelopment. Guess that didn’t pay off…so let’s hop on the Ritz-Carlton bandwagon. Hope they don’t blow all those people’s pension money in this complex, speculative, massive construction project, just as construction costs are skyrocketing, other five star hotels, luxury condos and boutique shopping will be competing with you and the water to provide all these downtown “cornerstones” is diminishing.]

Zuma Dogg Presents: Zuma Show (Half Hour) Best of Radio SUPER-Show (STREAM HERE NOW!)

Here is a fun half hour show filled with clips from public comment, public access shows, ZD on Nightline, FOX, KNBC, etc., original songs, Venice Beach LIVE performances and some fun jingles I worked in to try and turn this into my version of the "Zuma Morning Zoo" including parody songs. ZD sings Bee Gees, Springsteen and Michael Jackson. This show is a show for NEW listeners to get an idea of how Zuma Dogg has been exposing fraud, waste, abuse and corruption in Los Angeles in the free media. And if you have already been following ZD, this is a fun "Best of" show with a lot the clips you remember and some you may have missed.

Zuma's LA Daily Blog Adds Google Ads! (Should Be Fun!)

Ya know, sometimes you kinda gotta go with the flow...

There are people who help support my council meeting attendance and blogging (dare I say, "friends"), and every time I tell them how my blog is on fire with views this week (since I have a somewhat functional wi-fi/laptop); they always immediately fire off the obligatory, "Why don't you put advertising on your blog?"

For one, I think Google ads can "creep out" a blog; but, we all agree I should solicit advertisers, directly, for things that won't sicken me to see be advertised and promoted on my blog. But go try and pull that one off. (Contacting people to advertise and putting it all together.)

AND, I never really felt that Google click ad revenues for Zuma Dogg would really be all that much. BUT, since people are financially supporting my efforts -- I'm gonna let the ads fly! (And it's ALL the people who can afford it the least who help; while the people who can actually afford a small PayPal donation sit on their asses and let the other people pick up the slack.)

Not that it's Fox News or MTV traffic, but now, with the numbers LA Daily Blog is getting (that I can continue to drive up even further if I am able to continue to sit here and crank it out and work the search engines) the blog is now at least to the starting point of even thinking about it as an occasional "PayPal-like" donation that will come in from Google, once in a while; AND, I AM curious how much the amount of traffic I am generating will convert into Google adsense revenue at this point. (Only thing, in order to generate that kinda traffic, I kinda have to blog all the time.)

AND, although I was going to put a "filter" on certain keywords to prevent non-ZD friendly issues and shady politicians from being seen and promoted, I AM REALLY CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT STARTS POPPING UP!!!

I've always been a "market researcher" at heart which is why I got into radio, I guess, and it should be a fun (and possibly hilarious) market research experiment to see what happens, if nothing else.

So like Rick Ocasek once said, "Common, let the GOOD...TIMES...ROLL! Let the good times roll."

And I'm REALLY gonna let Google cram in ads wherever they want to, so we can REALLY see what happens. I'm gonna HATE it! But I think some people (including myself) will be checking in more, just to see what is popping up.

AND HERE'S SOMETHING THAT I AM UPDATING THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHILE I CAN: Zuma's LA Daily Blog - NewsWIRE: All the news that's fit to link! (LA Daily Blog headlines -- PLUS hundreds of wire feeds from across the internet, scanned by ZD for the few that make it onto the newswire of stories of interest to LA Daily Blog readers (or at least of interet to Zuma Dogg).

New Los Angeles Billboard Blight Is Low-Tech, NOT Digital

Well, now it looks like the billboard companies are causing billboard blight throughout Los Angeles at the low-tech level, as well as state-of-the-art digital level!



The geniuses at the billboard companies came up with this new and improved thinner synthetic material to print and post their advertising messages all across the city. But, THEIR BAD: No one at the billboard companies bothered to read Zuma Dogg's "Interpreting Deming's 14 Point" (methods for management of quality and productivity), so the result is: THEY DO NOT WORK IN EVERYDAY PRACTICLE CONDITIONS! As you can see, they almost immediately (like on the second or third day) start to wrinkle, then peel. This one was blowing in the wind like a U.S. flag.

HEY CITY COUNCIL: Do NOT wait. Pass an ordinace or create a REAP-like (Rent Escrow) that will prevent this type of blight from popping up like litter all over the city.

Green Dot's Ben Austin Fails To Qualify For LAUSD District 4 Election (VOTE FOR BILL RING!)

Ben Austin, who worked for Steve Barr's Green Dot Charter as an operative (and former mentor to Michael Trujillo from the Rob Reiner days) DID NOT qualify for the ballot in the LAUSD District 4 election to replace the outgoing Marlene Canter . ZD endorses Bill Ring, anyway, so this is really good news. This is hilarious! For all of Steve Barr's organizational infrastructure, I can't believe he couldn't get his homeboy Ben the lousy 500 signatures. People like Eli Broad and Bill Gate throw Steve Barr's Green Dot TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, but they couldn't get the signatures?. (Bill Gates has donated $10 million, himself.) HEY BEN...ZUMA DOGG GOT 1000 SIGNATURES HIMSELF! I guess the Green Dot supporters didn't really want it bad enough. MORE ON BILL RING TO COME. ZUMA DOGG's Z.A.P. (Zuma's Action Plan) HIGHLY endorses him for LAUSD District 4.
