Obama has never shown a lack of passion in his actions as president and this trip is no different. I believe that he is focusing on the potential benefits that an Olympiad could bring not only to the Chicago area, but the spirit of all Americans. However, he might be sending the wrong message to the American public about what is a priority.

Judges love nominees who have mentored others, especially if they have mentored young people. Mentorship tends to be an important factor in winning awards. Your desire to mentor others will expand in relationship to the growth of your reputation as an expert in your field. People are naturally drawn to experts and want to learn from them.

The time of year is quickly approaching when North Carolinians swarm to Raleigh for fried food, rides, unique exhibits and cheap concerts. Yes, the North Carolina State Fair is now less than a month away. As this favorite fall event approaches, fair enthusiasts make their plans accordingly, from planning which night to go to hear a favorite band to buying bargain tickets ahead of time.

For the past year or so, MMI new media specialist Bobby McDonald and I have worked to provide an unfiltered source for PR commentary on issues in Raleigh and the rest of North Carolina. RaleighPublicRelations.com is designed to give an unbiased voice to the local industry -- while our staff and interns maintain the blog, it has no content affiliation with MMI. Raleigh is home to a great public relations community, with strong university programs and a competitive media market. Being a PR professional in Raleigh can be exciting.
