Rocky Mountain News - Denver, CO, USA - Raise your glass for a good cause. And your favorite athlete.

In an unusual and surprisingly successful blend of sports and retail philanthropy, a wine company is launching its second vintage of athlete-endorsed wines that raise money for charity.

This year, the company will introduce several dozen new baseball-themed wines, including Santana's Select Merlot (New York's Johan Santana), Cabernet Glavingnon (Atlanta's Tom Glavine) and Vintage Papi (Boston's David Ortiz).

InformationWeek - Manhasset, NY, USA - Erm. Huh? RIM (NSDQ: RIMM) is looking for another angle into the consumer market and decided partnering with Will.i.am and his Dipdive online community is the way to do it. If you're left scratching your head at this one, you're not alone. Is a music and politics-themed social community the right angle for RIM?

First off, does celebrity endorsement really sell products? It doesn't do it for me. I don't buy things because some famous person also uses them. I use the phones I use because they do what I need them to do. I use the computers I use because

The Emory Wheel - USA - Monday night’s “O’Reilly Factor” featured a video clip of 50 Cent in a brief in-car interview. When asked why he endorses Sen. Hillary Clinton, he replies: “I think she’ll do a good job.”

The clip cuts to the end of the interview, and as the reporter steps out of the car and thanks “Mr. Cent” for the ride, 50 Cent adds: “I’m not sure America’s ready to have a black president. I think they might kill him.”

Although their endorsements stem from various reasons and issues, dozens of celebrities — from A-listers to D-listers — have publicly announced support for candidates for

By Maria Puente, USA TODAY - Just in time for gift-giving season, a growing stack of consumer surveys suggests fewer people are buying wristwatches.

So are increasing numbers of consumers, leading to a drop in sales that has watchmakers worried as the holidays approach; wristwatches have long been a popular gift for all ages and both sexes.
