About Connect
Sbliz: The Telly Awards are in for 2010, and one of our own has received the very highest honor of the Silver Telly: Tahitian Noni International, a multi-level marketing company that makes their money (however much it is, they’re not disclosed publicly) from the dubious Noni juice, probably made some kind of commercial or something.
Bnorf: another award-winning story: the Utah chapter of the American Advertising Federation took home an almost-unbelievable 16 ADDY Awards. If you’re unfamiliar with the ADDYs, that’s ironic because it’s all about advertising. In fact, it’s the world’s biggest advertising competition, with three tiers of awards from the local to the regional to the national. Unless Utah is now a nation, we’re assuming that the 16 awards were from the regional category, or possibly the local.
Squieb: The Utah Division of Finance gets the Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the field of Excellence. No wait, they actually got the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada. I’ll bet they’d know how to do a sweet home loan refi. This is the 25th time the Division has earned this honor, so they’re probably pretty blase about it now. After all, if it was really special, it would have a snappy acronym that everyone would know, such as CAEFRGFOAUSC.
Blumb: Utah continues to resist the wiles of the USA players top list, which lines up the best USA player accepted casino candidates. We’re confident that someday, in some way, our fair state will come around.
