Citing 'Visual Blight,' Dallas Moves to Ban News Boxes in Parts of Citynew
Yesterday, the Dallas City Council agreed in principle to ban news boxes in a few neighborhoods and will vote on a measure June 20, the Dallas Morning News reports. The council would replace freestanding boxes with standardized modular units that hold up to eight publications each. In order to get placement in the communal racks, publications "would enter a city-sponsored lottery weighted toward daily publications and those with an established downtown presence," according to the Morning News. Dallas mayor and former Dallas Observer columnist Laura Miller supports the measure. "We've worked with the publishers on this for more than a year," she says. "We've talked it to death. It's time to do this."

Alt-Weekly Investigation Reveals ID-Theft Entrepreneur's Shady Pastnew

Last week, Phoenix New Times revealed that Robert J. Maynard, Jr., a founder of LifeLock, a company that offers to protect people from identity theft, is himself suspected of being an identity thief. Among New Times' findings: Another company Maynard owned, a credit-repair company called the National Credit Foundation, was investigated by state and federal authorities and was suspected of stealing money from its customers. Court records show that the company "withdrew funds from consumers' checking accounts without authorization." As Wired notes, Maynard denied wrongdoing, but the federal government issued a permanent injunction banning him from "advertising, promoting, offering for sale, selling, performing, or distributing any product or service relating to credit improvement services." In the meantime, one of LifeLock's competitors, Truston, seized the opportunity to offer a 50 percent discount to any current LifeLock customers.

C-Ville Weekly Advertising Assistant Aspires to Air Guitar Glorynew

Tim Granlund rocks a military theme and goes by the nickname of "Six String General" in his quest to reach September's Air Guitar World Championships in Finland, the Washington Post reports. The 23-year-old Granlund faces his first challenge this Wednesday in the D.C. round of the U.S. Air Guitar Championships (if you're so inclined, you can buy tickets here). He'll have 60 seconds to win over the judges and move on to the next round of competition. He gives the Post insight into his air guitar strategy and says he's working on his signature move, the "hump jump." Granlund also talks shop, describing his air guitar as "a vintage thing ... it's got one of those triangular-looking deals going on. It's pink, totally wild and crazy."
