Market Data
Market Perspectives January 5, 2017
1. Chicago Board of Trade Market News
Outlook: The holidays were kind to the corn market, bringing bulls the gift of a high-pressure ridge across Brazil and heavy rain with some flooding for Argentina. While Brazil and Argentina might argue the classification of recent weather as a "gift," bulls at the CBOT view it as such. The high-pressure ridge started last week and is expected to hold for at least one more, brining hot, dry weather to northeast Brazil during the key soybean development period (January in Brazil is equivalent to July in the U.S. crop cycle). Concurrently, the ridge creates a wet pattern for southern Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay with some low-level flooding. All in all, the situation creates some concern for the South American soybean crop which has spilled over into support for corn.
Aside from the weather, there has been little fundamental news for the market to trade. Exports continue to run above year-ago levels (YTD bookings are 75 percent above last year) but have been slowing since early December as the market awaits USDA's Grain Stocks report on January 12. The report will give a good indicator of how much grain is "in the bin" and available for export and domestic use. It will likely be a market-moving report with a significant price movement one way or the other. Traders appear to be paring back short positions in preparation for a possibly bullish report.
One interesting feature of the markets lately is investment funds' and money managers' growing interest in building long positions. Many investors view commodities as "cheap" given the long commodity bear market and rising stock prices, prompting interest to "buy low". With a stronger macroeconomic outlook in place and predictions of increasing inflation, investment funds are expecting commodity prices to rise. If changing fundamentals motivate the market to trade above its recent range, the move would likely generate additional investment in the corn/grain markets.
From a technical perspective, the uptrend in March corn remains intact. Indeed, the market touched the trendline on December 23 and has since pulled away in a classic indicator of a trending market. However, the resistance line formed from the October 20 and December 13 highs has turned back four rallies since October and hovers above today's close at $3.65. Corn is trading above its 10-day, 20-day, and 40-day moving averages which is a bullish sign, as is the "buy" signal flashed by the MACD earlier this week. However, the burden of proof is on the bulls and pushing above resistance will be a substantial fight. Look for the market to get turned back at the resistance line and resume choppy trading this week unless substantive new fundamental information is revealed.

3. U.S. Weather/Crop Progress
U.S. Drought Monitor Weather Forecast: During the next 5 days (January 5-9), several Pacific storm systems laden with moisture are expected to batter California and the West, with up to 18 inches of precipitation forecast for the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Coastal areas of Oregon and the northern two-thirds of California are expecting more than 4 inches of precipitation, while the Intermountain West, northern, central, and southern Rockies and Cascades may see 1-3 inches. Unfortunately, little or no precipitation is predicted in the middle third of the Nation (including the Plains), while a storm may develop off the Atlantic Coast. Light totals (less than 1 inch) may occur along the eastern Gulf and south Atlantic Coasts, with lake-effect snows likely in the favored Great Lakes snow belts. Temperatures across much of the lower 48 States should be well-below normal except for above-normal readings in the Southwest.
During January 10-14, the odds favor above-median precipitation in the West, northern Plains, Midwest, and Northeast, with good chances for sub-median precipitation in the southern Rockies, southern half of the Plains, and along the Gulf and southern Atlantic Coasts. Temperatures are expected to rebound from the day 1-5 cold spell, with a favorable tilt toward above-normal readings across the southern half and eastern third of the U.S., with the cold expected to remain in the Northwest and northern Plains.

4. U.S. Export Statistics
Due to the Monday, January 2 holiday, weekly U.S. export sales will be published on Friday, January 6. Updated U.S. export sales will be published in the January 12 edition of Market Perspectives.
Corn: Net sales of 958,600 MT for 2016/2017 were down 23 percent from the previous week and 24 percent from the prior 4-week average. Increases were for Mexico (480,900 MT, including 40,000 MT switched from unknown destinations and decreases of 8,800 MT), Japan (181,500 MT, including 88,800 MT switched from unknown destinations and decreases of 5,300 MT), Peru (129,600 MT, including 45,000 MT switched from unknown destinations and decreases of 14,900 MT), Malaysia (66,300 MT), and South Korea (56,500 MT, switched from unknown destinations and decreases of 3,500 MT). Reductions were for unknown destinations (70,200 MT), Guatemala (6,400 MT), Colombia (5,700 MT), and Panama (1,500 MT). For 2017/2018, net sales of 46,200 MT were reported for Mexico (32,000 MT), Peru (13,000 MT), and Honduras (1,200 MT). Exports of 992,000 MT were up 27 percent from the previous week and 5 percent from the prior 4-week average. The primary destinations were Mexico (286,800 MT), South Korea (187,800 MT), Japan (179,800 MT), Peru (142,500 MT), and Colombia (42,000 MT).
Optional Origin Sales: For 2016/2017, the current optional origin outstanding balance of 828,000 MT is for South Korea (604,000 MT) and unknown destinations (224,000 MT).
Barley: No net sales were reported for the week. Exports of 1,000 MT were reported to Japan (800 MT) and Vietnam (200 MT).
Sorghum: Net sales of 30,700 MT for 2016/2017 resulted as increases for China (64,500 MT, including 58,000 MT switched from unknown destinations and decreases of 3,200 MT), Mexico (17,900 MT), and Indonesia (3,300 MT), were partially offset by reductions for unknown destinations (55,000 MT). Exports of 115,000 MT were down 57 percent from the previous week and 31 percent from the prior 4-week average. The destinations were China (108,800 MT), Mexico (5,700 MT), and Nigeria (400 MT).
6. Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS)
DDGS Comments: Rising soybean meal prices are helping keep DDGS competitive in domestic feed rations. On a per-protein unit basis, DDGS have a $2.66 advantage over soybean meal as South American weather concerns buoy the soy complex. The holidays created a brief lull in demand and merchandisers lowered prices to stimulate additional demand. CIF NOLA prices and FOB Gulf prices were both slightly lower this week but prices in Alberta were $2-3/ton higher. On the international market, prices were softer due to the holidays. However, end users have likely only covered their needs through the holidays and not much further into 2017. Accordingly, as business returns to normal during the first weeks of January, additional buying and a price rebound are likely. Such an event could quickly erase any softness observed in the markets this week.
Ethanol Comments: Ethanol producers finished 2016 with a bang, pushing production to a record-high 1.043 million barrels/day (306.64 million gallons per week). The 1.5 percent increase came even as ethanol stocks were flat and gasoline supplied (a measure of ethanol consumption) fell 11 percent on holiday-reduced demand. Ethanol prices worked their way lower in recent weeks but stable cash corn prices allowed plants to maintain solid margins. The outlook calls for a slow decrease in production heading into the end of January but production should remain above 303.4 million gallons per week.
Ethanol margins were lower this week three of the four reference markets. Producers in Illinois saw margins experience the only increase as they gained $0.02/bushel this week. Margins in South Dakota and Iowa experiences the largest declines, falling $0.29/bushel and $0.19/bushel, respectively. Ethanol producers are still enjoying comparatively good margins, which are up $0.70/bushel over last year on average to start 2017. Specific margins for the four reference markets are as follow:
- Illinois differential is $2.08 per bushel, in comparison to $2.06 the prior week and $1.47 a year ago.
- Iowa differential is $2.02 per bushel, in comparison to $2.21 the prior week and $1.29 a year ago.
- Nebraska differential is $2.13 per bushel, in comparison to $2.20 the prior week and $1.44 a year ago.
- South Dakota differential is $2.22 per bushel, in comparison to $2.51 the prior week and $1.44 a year ago.
7. Country News
Argentina: Excessive wetness has delayed corn seeding and is driving the corn market higher but the South American land mass is large and there are weather issues somewhere every year. (Reuters)
Brazil: The Secretariat of Foreign Commerce reported that December corn exports were down 84 percent from the same month a year ago, and overall corn exports for the marketing year at 19.8 MMT were down 31 percent from a year earlier. (Bloomberg)
China: Corn prices climbed to 1,534 yuan ($222.91) per ton, the highest in two weeks on the view that corn is underpriced relative to soybeans and farmers will plant less of it this coming year. (Bloomberg) The government adopted a direct payment subsidy scheme for corn farmers similar to the U.S. program. Farmers in the four main corn production provinces will be paid between $109 and $163 (average $137) per acre for the corn they plant. China is offering corn for export at prices below those of the U.S. and Brazil. The government's Document Number One policy statement says it will "carefully promote GM food crops, though likely traits supplied by Chinese companies. (Iowa Corn Farmer)
Ukraine: The Agriculture Ministry projects annual corn exports at 18.5 MMT, the most of any country but still below the 2013/14 record of 20 MMT.
8. Ocean Freight Markets and Spread
9. Ocean Freight Comments
Transportation and Export Report: Jay O'Neil, O'Neil Commodity Consulting: This is the week that the world markets start to wake up from their Holiday sleep and get back to business. Of course, not everyone is back in their office chair just yet. Jerome Sorrel made the following observation: One-third of the world has been off for the occidental Christmas and New Year holiday, followed by another third of the world off shortly thereafter for the Lunar New Year, followed by another third of the world off for Ramadan. So, it will be difficult to get a lot of clarity out of the market for a while. As best as I can tell most Dry-Bulk shipping routes are off $1,500 to $3,000/day on their daily hire rates this week versus just before the holidays. It looks as if the U.S. Gulf Handysize market is on the biggest loser side of this equation; but it was the strongest on the up side. The Capesize vessel market is the holding its own pretty well, and even moving up a bit, as buyers are trying to get coverage before the Chinese New Year holiday at the end of this month. Though we most likely did make multi-year contract lows and bounced off of them in 2016, it does not appear that we will be making any new 12-month contract highs in the first half of 2017.
The charts below represent year-to-date 2016 versus January-December 2015 annual totals for container shipments to South Korea.

Phil McMaster, D.C., A.C.P., Honored with Service to the Profession Award from Sherman College of Chiropractic
New Zealand College of Chiropractic President Phil McMaster, D.C., A.C.P., recently received the Service to the Profession Award from Sherman College of Chiropractic in Spartanburg, SC, USA, in recognition of his contributions, time and commitment to the chiropractic profession, the public and the college. The Service to the Profession Award is given to an individual who has demonstrated extraordinary, unselfish and noteworthy service to the chiropractic profession.
Before Sherman's vision was articulated as bringing chiropractic to the world and "Adjusting the World for a Better Future," Dr. Phil McMaster took what he learned at Sherman College back to his homeland of New Zealand on the other side of the world. Dr. McMaster and a group of other dedicated individuals helped launch the New Zealand College of Chiropractic, which opened in 1994. He served as chair of the philosophy department and has taught at the college since its inception. At the same time, he has run a successful full-time practice.
Dr. McMaster eagerly took on leadership roles to advance the profession. He has served for many years on the Board of the New Zealand Chiropractors' Association and as trustee and chairman of the New Zealand Chiropractic Education Trust.
While serving as interim president of the New Zealand College in 2002-2003, he completely refined the chiropractic program for accreditation in a time of crisis. Not surprisingly, the college turned to him again and named him president in 2013, a position he still holds. As such he assures that his part of the world has a principled chiropractic institution for students to learn the philosophy, art and science of the profession.
Sherman College named its 2016 award recipients April 28-30 as part of Lyceum, an annual continuing education and homecoming event attended by hundreds of chiropractors and students throughout the U.S. and internationally. Lyceum is held on the college's campus in Spartanburg, SC, and involves three days of seminars, special events and other programs.

How does this example of dramatic irony manipulate the audience sympathies, develops character, and develops the conflict and/or theme of the play.
The example is, Claudius thinks that nobody knows that he killed King Hamlet, but the Ghost told Hamlet that Claudius killed his father, and so the audience and Hamlet know that he did.
- print Print
- list Cite
The fact that the audience knows that Claudius did in fact kill King Hamlet makes the audience feel sympathy for Prince Hamlet, but it also makes us question his actions or lack of actions throughout the play. The fact that the ghost tells Hamlet that he was killed by Claudius doesn't necessarily set up the dramatic irony in the play because Hamlet is not sure if the ghost is really his father or if the ghost is an evil spirit that is there to pull him into Hell. In act II scene ii Hamlet is expresses the fact that he is upset with himself after the player performs the monologue about Priam and Hecuba and begins to cry. Hamlet is having a hard time understanding how the actor can show so much emotion over someone he doesn't even know, but he has not done anything to avenge his father. However, Hamlet also states that he needs more proof that the ghost is telling the truth because he is still not sure that the ghost isn't evil. He states that he will use the play "to capture the conscious of the king" (II.ii.586). In other words he will watch Claudius's reaction and decide if he is guilty. Therefore, at this point we don't know for sure that Claudius is the killer.
However, in act III scene iii Claudius admits his guilt in a soliloquy when he tries to pray. He also says that his prayers will not go to Heaven because there is no action behind them. In other words he is not willing to give back the queen, the crown or his power -all things he obtained after the murder. The fact that we, the audience, now know that he is guilty but not willing to give back what he has received helps us to understand what an evil person Claudius really is and how much he deserves to die.
The dramatic irony also helps the reader understand why Hamlet is so quick to kill Polonius, who he thinks is Claudius, when he is talking to his mother and hears something behind the curtain (III.iv). The audience can understand why Hamlet wants to kill Clauidus. However, the dramatic irony also makes the audience wonder why Hamlet takes so long to get revenge. Hamlet gets upset with himself in his solioquy in act II scene ii and again in act IV scene iv because he has not avenged his father's death. Since the audience knows that Claudius did indeed kill King Hamlet, we are left to wonder why Hamlet just doesn't kill Claudius.

Reliance Media World launches Raavan campaign
Reliance Media World Ltd. does it again, as it becomes the official partners for the year's most awaited blockbusters Raavan. As Bollywood's most celebrated couple come together in a movie that is expected to raise the temperature RMWL's radio arm BIG FM, the events division of its experiential marketing arm BIG Live and its mobile and online solutions division BIG Digital, come together to ensure the film reaches out to the nation through extremely innovative, novel and highly interactive offerings.
The promotions which have already begun are spread across 36 Hindi speaking markets and 2 markets will happen across the 36 HSM's and 2 markets in Tamil Nadu ensuring the best spread and reach.
On 92.7 BIG FM, the inner Ram or Raavan of the audiences will be reveled on 92.7 BIG FM, through the contest 'Aander ka Raavan', where listeners will get an opportunity to recommend friends and family whom they believe are the biggest Raavan's in their lives, attributed to a certain trait which could range from laziness to a bad temper and more. Listeners will be encouraged to share unusual real life instances about their friends– these instances would bring forth their inner Ram or Raavan.
During the contest each person's story will be played daily and the top 5 stories from across the 36 HSM as well as Chennai network will be short listed and shared with the stars of the film. At the end of the contest, the winner will be selected through votes across India and the final winner will get an opportunity to meet with the superstars. The on air magic will also include interviews with A. R. Rahman, Mani Ratnam, Abhishek, Aishwarya, southern superstar Vikram and more, ensuring not just great content but also an excellent opportunity for listeners to be able to speak with their favorite stars.
BIG Live's Events division is executing one of the biggest road shows to be hosted along with Abhishek Bachchan himself being part of a cavalcade activity touching 10 high footfall areas in each of the cities of Delhi and Mumbai over the weekend. The event, christened "Thok De Killi" sees Beera's entourage being led by a series of bikers dressed in the Beera outfit making way for the huge truck done up in the jungle theme with dancers atop it, grooving to the upbeat music of Thok de killi. Joining the dancers will be none other than Abhishek Bachchan himself who will wear his attitude, interact with audiences and share exclusive merchandise with them.
In ensuring an integrated offering, BIG Digital will promote the movie with mobile SMS promotions and branding on video web pages of BIG FM along with banners on BIG FM homepage and picture and video uploads of the stars on social community sites.
Recently, RMWL executed a highly successful promotional campaign for one of the biggest movie – Kites of this year and was able to garner maximum mileage for the movie.

Location: Subtropical Horticulture Research2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
The objectives are to: 1) identify genetic variations (single nucleotide polymorphisms, or SNPs) in 20 diverse cacao germplasms plus Matina 1-6 for the development of SNP markers; 2) generate transcript profiles for seven different stages during cacao floral development; 3) build a set of cacao reference sequences from data generated in this cooperative agreement and from other publicly available DNA sequences; and 4) generate and host web and FTP sites for data analysis and distribution to project participants, the cacaogenomedb website, and to the scientific public when analyses are complete.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
RNA will be isolated from the leaves of 20 (plus Matina1-6) diverse cacao varieties by USDA-ARS SHRS staff. NCGR will generate 21 illumina mRNA-Seq libraries and sequence each library to a depth of one flowcell channel. Each library will have greater than 4 million, 90bp sequence reads for a total of more than 7.5 gigabase of mRNA sequence. the 454-generated and publicly available cacao ESTs will be assembled to generate a reference sequence that will be used to align the ilumina sequence data. A database of the cacao ilumina data will be generated and made web-accessible to project collaborators and ultimately to the scientific public. This database will enable the discovery of SNPs and expression profiling analysis. A full SNP report will be generated. This report will identify: • Reference: the reference sequence against which the variant was detected. • Variant: an internal unique identifier for the variant. • Class: S=snp, I=insertion, D=deletion (relative to the reference). • Position: the base pair at which the variant occurs. • RefAllele: the allele for the reference sequence. • VarAllele: the allele for the variant reported. • Context: sub-sequence of the reference around the variant position. • BothStrands: has the variant been reported in reads from both strands? • AvgQual: the average quality of the bases in which the variant was reported. • MaxQual: the maximum quality of all bases in which the variant was reported. • NumReadsWithAllele: how many reads total exhibited the variant allele. • UniqAlns: how many reads exhibiting the allele were from unique alignments. • FreqDiff: the absolute value of the difference in frequency between varieties. Results from this analysis will be used to generate SNP panels for use in USDA-ARS cacao breeding programs. RNA isolated for seven cacao floral developmental timepoints will be provided by USDA-ARS SHRS staff. NCGR will generate seven Illumina mRNA-Seq libraries and sequence each library to a depth of one flowcell channel. Each library will have greater than 4 million, 90bp sequence reads for a total of more than 2.5 gigabase of mRNA sequence. Sequence data for expression profiling analysis will be made available through the above mentioned database to project participants, the cacaogenomedb website, and ultimately to the scientific public.
3. Progress Report:
This project is related to the inhouse objective: The development and implementation of an international Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) program for cacao is the major objective of this project. This objective involves a combination of hypothesis-driven and non-hypothesis driven research and includes the training of scientists from cacao producing countries in plant breeding, genetics and the use of molecular markers in a MAS program. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data was analyzed to generate haplotypes for all parents of the cacao mapping populations. Use of haplotypes in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses and in analysis of qualitative traits improved the identification of candidate genes.

A GPS can be a great companion if you are travelling to an alien place and don't know the directions for your destination or for knowing your neighborhood even better.However using a GPS device or even your Smart Phone for getting directions can be quite confusing and one may have to instead ask for directions from the passersby even if they have this great gift of technology. Following are some tips on how you can get a better experience from your GPS device.
1. Read Instruction Manual And Use It In A Known Location
Just like any other electronic device, the GPS has a learning curve and features which you must learn before you can actually use it. Either go through the instruction manual properly or you can ask someone who is well versed with the equipment. Also practice using the GPS device in a place which you know like your locality to understand the various symbols and the method to use it.
2. Have Spare Batteries
A Gps consumes good amount of battery and hence it is better to be prepared with an extra set of battery if you are going out for a long journey. Also make it a point while you buy a GPS device that it has a high standby time.
3. Preload your Maps
When travelling outdoors you don't usually get the privilege of Wi-Fi internet service which you get at your home. Rather than wasting money on downloading maps on 3G or 4G service, instead download the maps of the places which you intend to go beforehand. This can save you some money and can come handy if there is no signal at the place.
4. Have A Backup Plan
You can always ask any local in case you have lost your way in the city. However if you are on a hiking expedition or in a foreign country where no one understands your language, then it can become quite hard. Carrying physical maps and compass can come handy at these situations in case your GPS equipment ceases to work, the battery gets drained and other such emergencies.
5. Mark Your Locations
Mark important locations on the GPS while in the way so that you can easily locate them. Also many Smart Phones come with Geo tag feature. You can take pictures of certain places and tag them so that you can easily remember the places while in your return journey.
6. Update Firmware Constantly
Update your GPS firmware whenever there is an update. A lot of new features including maps are added in these firmware updates and also minor bugs are fixed for better performance.
7. Make Sure That Your Mobile Phone Is Compatible The GPS Device
Navigating through the screen of a GPS device can sometimes not be smooth and one may want to instead use it with their Smart Phone by connecting through Bluetooth. Some phones however are not compatible with certain GPS devices and hence make sure that the GPS device you buy is.

Published: Monday 13th October 2014 by The News Editor
Ukip leader Nigel Farage would take on David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg in a televised pre-election debate, under proposals from broadcasters.
The Tory and Labour leaders would also go head-to-head in another programme, according to the joint plans from the BBC, ITV, Sky News and Channel 4.
The announcement – which follows months of detailed negotiations over the format for debates next year – is said to reflect "changes in the political landscape".
Ukip came top in European elections in May, and secured its first elected Commons seat last week – while the Liberal Democrats have been languishing in the polls.
All parties have said they support more debates in principle, after the 2010 events dominated the campaign and drew significant audiences. But there have been disagreements about who should participate and how they will be staged.
The blueprint from the broadcasters would see former Newsnight host Jeremy Paxman chair a one-on-one contest between Mr Cameron and Mr Miliband for Sky News and Channel 4.
The Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat leaders would clash in a BBC debate presented by David Dimbleby.
And the trio will be joined by Mr Farage for an ITV programme chaired by Julie Etchingham.
The Ukip leader said the proposals recognised growing support for his party.
"The decision is better than it could have been. It does at least recognise the increasing popularity of Ukip," he said.
"However if the political landscape continues to change we would expect and ask for inclusion in a second debate."
The Liberal Democrats rejected the suggestion that they should be excluded from one debate.
"The Liberal Democrats have long argued that the debates last time round were of huge benefit to our democratic process and engaged millions of voters," a spokesman said.
"The Liberal Democrats therefore welcome the fact that the broadcasters are seeking to make progress to ensure that the debates happen again in 2015.
"The Liberal Democrats, like the Labour Party, have publicly said that we would be prepared to sign up to the same 3-3-3 system we had in 2010.
"We do not accept the proposal that the Liberal Democrats, as a party of government, should be prevented from defending our record in one of the TV debates.
"That is the case we will make strongly in the negotiations that will now take place and we urge the other parties to join us around the negotiating table without excuse or delay."
A statement from the broadcasters said the debates were "vital in engaging voters with the political process". The three encounters at the last election, each featuring the Tory, Labour and Lib Dem leaders, were watched by 22 million people.
"The broadcasters intend to transmit the leaders' debates live for all their extensive audiences, on air, online and on social media, which together have a mass reach amongst the British population," the statement said.
Mr Farage was widely seen as emerging victorious from two debates with Mr Clegg on the EU in the run-up to European elections earlier this year.
Last week Mr Clegg accused Mr Cameron of "foot-dragging" over encounters during the general election campaign.
"The Tories should come clean – if they want to run scared, they should say they don't want to do them, but not this endless ducking and weaving. I think people want the TV debates.
"The more people can see how the leaders measure up against each other, the better."

Phil Jackson is prepared to listen to a pitch from the Toronto Raptors about taking a lead role in their basketball operations, but a source says that he wants to listen to options from other teams as well. Jackson would prefer an advisory role similar to Jerry West's current position with the Golden State Warriors rather than a more active role similar to Pat Riley with the Miami Heat. Multiple sources doubt whether Jackson would be satisfied by a position with the Raptors. A similar position with the Charlotte Bobcats was not initially appealing to Jackson. Jackson would seek a situation where he can hire a head coach that would implement his vision. Speculation that Jackson could end up with the Raptors increased with the hiring of Tim Leiweke, former CEO of AEG. "He's very well-connected in the league and he has to rebuild that franchise," a league source said of Leiweke. "... He's about championships. They didn't just bring him in there to mind the house." Sources told ESPN that the Raptors perceived the Seattle-based ownership group that has been attempting to purchase the Kings as the Raptors' biggest threat for Jackson.

This week, the guy who invented the pop-up ad apologized for making the Internet terrible. Here's a roundup of people and companies who might be the next offenders or the next innovators.
Digiday: 'Brands aren't people. And if they were, they'd hate ads too.'
What's the thesis? Brands should look for ways to be niche publishers, not broadcast advertisers. Talk to a smaller, more relevant and engaged group who will take your content, share it and integrate it into their relevant conversations on their platforms of choice for you.
Why should I care? This is a variation on the larger pushback we're seeing on brands using social (mostly Facebook) for scale and substituting impressions for engagement. And the re-examination of earned media's value vs. paid media.
Anything else? The YouTube Hero, Hub, Hygiene strategy he mentions sounds odd, but it's how YouTube content creators formed a loyal subscriber base without big budgets.
Who else is talking about this? See last month's Newcastle item.
What's the next thing people will be saying about this? At this rate, I'm assuming you'll see people falling all over themselves to name their SXSW talk "Facebook Is Dead." Oh and then there's this:
Quartz: Messaging apps are reprising the web's business model, circa 1999
What's the thesis? "The internet giants of the present era are rushing to…become the Google of mobile." The old web portal model (Yahoo will find everything for you) has become a mobile brand model (YOUR FAVORITE INTERNET BRAND HERE will provide you with every conceivable mobile service – email, messaging, gaming, travel reservations, etc.).
Why should I care? Theoretically, the more data brands have on consumer activities, the more customizable and effective they can be at marketing to them.
Anything else? "What is your brand's Yo! strategy?" went from a joke to an actual thing people are talking about in two months. And apparently, ICQ use is increasing again. <digression>I really miss the early aughts, you guys. Even if half the music was terrible.</digression>
Who else is talking about this: I remain skeptical about broad use of new mobile apps as smartphone adoption plateaus. This Nielsen study says time spent using apps is on the rise, but people aren't trying new apps. Emarketer backs this up with its own data. (Though this data might be affected as trusted brands like Facebook and others expand offerings in the space.)
What's the next thing people will be saying about this? Mobile data is probably the most personal of all (think about the content of the last email or photo you sent someone). With the Snapchat security breach still fresh in mind, upstart brands ability to compete will rest on their ability to prove they can keep user data secure.
Rolling Stone: The Presidency and the Press: A former Obama spokesman on the history of the toxic relationship
What's the thesis? "To communicate with everybody in this country at the same time and get them all wrapped around one issue – it's very much an idea whose time has passed."
Why should I care? This piece isn't really about content marketing per se, but the above quote and the details about how the Obama administration often goes around traditional media outlets (and matches their reach) to get its unfiltered message directly to the American people offers plenty of lessons for brands.
Anything else? I never thought about how media cost-cutting led directly to more coverage of smaller stories but it's pretty obvious in retrospect. Less money for more complex reporting means you spend time on gaffes and nonsense.
Who else is talking about this? The Boston Herald did a story on social media portals' effects on the 2016 election. iCitizen is an app that helps voters track issues that are important to them. What's the next thing people will be saying about this? The election is more than two years away and that's forever in both politics and technology so anybody who thinks they have it figured out in advance of 2015 is probably full of it.

The Wait is OVER!!!
Rejoice, that is the word that comes to mind today. It is truly a great day for gamers everywhere. That's actually PS3 gamers I mean, because today we received a gift from the Gods! Anybody by now who played GOW3 knows about what earning the special Platinum trophy got you. You received a website link. When you visited the site all we were treated to was a rainy screen and a countdown clock in the upper right hand corner.
Finally today we know that Kratos lives on. GOW: Ghost of Sparta is the next game in the franchise and I must say, thank the gods! At the end of GOW3 it is left to you the player to ponder what will happen in the future. Would there be another game in the series? I for one could not stand the thought of never playing as Kratos again. He is one of the most iconic protagonists of our time. He is someone we all can relate to and frankly when Stig Asmussen said that a GOW game every 2-3 years would be bad for the series, I beg to differ. If your telling me I can step into this series every few years I say "Hell Ya!" I want to be Kratos as many times as possible. So Rejoice, as we now know that Kratos lives (technically the game is a prequel, but hey I'm euphoric over this announcement).

Recieved an interview at Sprint a week after applying... Now what?
|Comments (1)
ProXPro in Tennessee
80 months ago
I went to an interview on Monday, and was explained that the manager wasnt available to interview me and that I would be interviewed by someone else(the person that explained). I felt the interview went great. My interviewer was friendly and seemed interested. She asked for a resume so I handed in 2 copies along with reference list. She told me the manager would be back wednesday(today) and gave me his business card. During the night of my interview I sent a thank you letter to his email that showed my appreciation, interest, and qualities. Today I called the store to follow up again but was told that he was with a customer so I was asked to leave my name and number.
I would really want opinions on this situation. I'm really interested in this job plus it complements what I major in. I am also new to applying for such a large company so I don't know what expect. Your advice is appreciated :)

I'm soooooo ready to go on vacation. Sitting at my desk with nothing to do is killing me and it's still 1.5 hours till go home time! This is our first vacation since I was 6 weeks pg with DS (he's 5 now). I'm so excited!!!! We're going to Colorado Springs for a week, staying with MIL (love her), and doing anything and everything we can find to do. I probably won't be online again until 7/9, but I'll keep everyone in my thoughts and prayers. I'm going to have major JM withdrawals! Hope everyone can enjoy some time off for the Fourth. See you in a week!
P.S., Several of my friends from the Jan DDC joined us this week
so please take good care of them while I'm gone.

Just a coupe of weeks back, Spice surprised most of the tech community in India by announcing its first smartwatch called the Smart Pulse, and now the company has launched two new smartphones in India.
The devices come dubbed as Stellar 497 and Stellar 361 and are very affordable priced at Rs. 5,999 and Rs. 3,699 respectively and both these devices are currently selling via third-party online retailer Saholic.
Recommended: Samsung Galaxy S6 Rumor Roundup: Here's What You Need to Know
These are the smartphnes that are aimed to cater to the need of the low-end smartphone buyers in India. The Spice Stellar 497 is at least better in terms of processor and OS, as it features the trending KitKat OS and Quad Core processor. However, the RAM used in the handset is still very less which makes it incompetent in the Indian market.
Recommended: Top 10 Smartphones That Got Launched This Week
Spice Stellar 497: Key Specifications
Spice Stellar 497 comes with a 4.5-inch (854 x 480 pixels) capacitive touchscreen IPS display and is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core processor coupled with 512MB RAM and runs on Android 4.4 (KitKat) OS. Other specs include: Dual SIM, 3.2MP rear camera with LED flash, 2MP front-facing camera, 4GB internal memory, 32GB expandable memory with MicroSD, 3G HSPA+, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, GPS and comes packed with a 1650 mAh battery.
Spice Stellar 361: Key Specifications
This one comes with a smaller display size and also lesser powerful hardware. It features a 3.5-inch (480 x 320 pixels) capacitive touch screen display and is powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor coupled with a basic 256MB RAM and runs on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) OS. Other specs include: Dual SIM, 2MP camera with LED flash, 1.3MP front-facing camera, 3G HSPA+, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, GPS, 512MB internal memory, expandable memory with microSD (up to 32GB) and a 1400 mAh battery.
The company's latest two offerings in the form of these two entry level KitKat phones are not up to the expectation of the market. If you are in need of one budget smartphone with KitKat OS, there are ample devices that can be checked out. To name few, Micromax Canvas Unite, Canvas Engage, Xolo Q600s, Moto E are playing the top games in the low-end KitKat smarpthone market.

Hey all–
It has been just about 24 hours since I worked with my buddy Ajay (The Devil's Garage) on an animation for JUICED! JUICED! is a 24 hr animation competition held in collaboration with the Citrus Cel Animation Film Festival.
It was quite a fun, interesting, and extremely draining challenge. Working from 2 different time zones, assisting students, hosting/running the event, and trying to work on your own animation in 24 hrs…INSANITY! Here are the characters I designed for the project, and a few of the layout I created as well.

Hi all
I have been playing around with Google cardboard headsets for awhile now. There cheap easy and easy to setup but overall there a really basic entry into HDM's And I've been thinking of making something a bit more suited to task while still friendly to the user budget.
On this note I got to thinking would a small SCB like the Pi or Odroid suit this criteria. There are plenty of existing display mounts we could already use and replace the smartphone with the Odroid setup.
On a basic proof of concept we would have an LCD display inside the headmount. This is connected to our Odroid running most likely Linux via hdmi and a basic sound In / Out for headphones and a mic. A battery could be added for wire free power and and air mouse could be used for basic navigation.
From my research sofar this seems like an achiveable entry point project there are plenty of online tutorials for assembling a basic OS,adding wifi, displays and the other basics to get the system running. I think though the concept can be improved by mixing in more of the boards other abalities but this is where the depth gauge drops and my new learning curve begins.
I would like to advance this by adding motion sensors for head movement tracking and a small camera ( there could be 2 for sterioscopic video recording)
Improveing the control with motion tracking gloves and a virtual keyboard is another potential project aswell as voice recognition wich i have very little experience with either.
Also were not after a high performance top of the line product here but would there be any advantages to clustering 2 boards. For example. 1 board concentrates on your main OS while the second tracks motion sensor data and feeds it to the first. I'm not expecting there to be any real reasons for a setup like that but it dosn't hurt to ask.
All thoughts critiques suggestions and tips are welcome . I realise this isnt a two day look what I made kind of thing , but would this be a good entry level project or am i planning way above my head ?
Kind regards
The Igg

There are a few bits of quick news that popped up over the last few days, but none of that matters. What matters is the full Amonkhet set is up! Sadly, you don't get to hear us discuss the whole thing, because some manner of technical difficulty resulted in the loss of the last…hour? Or so? Sorry about that, I have no idea what happened or why. It sucks. Let the cavalcade of links begin!

We have now seen all the Gods of Amonkhet, and they're pretty neat. We've also got a few stand out cards that will be powerful in various formats, like Harsh Mentor. We've got a few completely bizarre cards that will hopefully snatch a few games for people. We've also got a new and possibly improved Krosan Tusker, a new Desert, a fixed Unstable Mutation, and Fling. What is going on here?
Also, some discussion about the story of Amonkhet and beard oil. Not at the same time though. That would just be weird. Buh.

The Age of Amonkhet is upon us! The new Masterpieces are called Invocations and they have the entire internet in an uproar. We'll touch on all the problems people have had and give our opinions. Then we'll cover all the mechanics and a handful of cards that are just sick, including a pair of awesome planeswalkers. The new set looks like fun!

Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman Diet Is For All Women Warriors Out There
The new Wonder Woman trailer is out and it is the stuff of our dreams. A strong woman taking situations by the horn is what we aspire to be and here we have a perfect model. So, we went a little deeper into this phenomenon and found out about the amount of effort and restraint when it comes to achieving that physical stature and immense power.
First Things First
According ENews, Gal Gadot sticks to a diet that is absolutely fire-rich and consumes fruits laden with nutrients. She also gives in to the occasional temptation of a cheeseburger but her workout regimen makes sure she intakes enough to withstand the heavy duty gym-action.
While soul-food is trending on Gadot's food list, she also drinks a lot of water to keep hydrated. Her diet mantra though, remains,"Don't eat while you drive and don't eat when you talk on the phone."

We stayed 6 nights at Alex's B&B during the Messe Frankfurt. His place is very close to the train to the Messe, shops and restaurants. It was clean and well lit. Alex made us a lovely breakfast each morning with yummy coffee. The bathroom is shared. It has a great shower and there is a washer/ dryer if needed as well. I would highly recommend a stay at this B&B. Alex helped us book tickets to Berlin on the train and was always willing to share his information about the city.

Bickmeier Named RIR President
July 6, 2011 | 2:30 P.M. EST
International Speedway Corporation ("ISC") today announced it has named Dennis Bickmeier President of Richmond International Raceway ("RIR") effective immediately. Bickmeier accepts the role from his most recent position as Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing for Michigan International Speedway ("MIS"). Current RIR President Doug Fritz who has resigned to pursue other career opportunities, will transition out over the next several weeks.
Joining MIS in 2007, Bickmeier, 44, was responsible for the oversight of three primary departments -- communications, corporate partnership sales, and ticket sales and operations. His career with ISC initially began in 1999 as the Public Relations Director at Auto Club Speedway, and he was promoted to Senior Director of Communications in 2004, a position he held until 2006. During his time at the Southern California-based speedway, Bickmeier became an adjunct faculty member in the University of San Francisco's Sports Management Program (2001-06), teaching the Strategic Communications and Sports Public Relations elective.
Bickmeier served as the Manager of Community Relations for Disney-owned Anaheim Sports, Inc., (1997-99) the owners of the Major League Baseball team the Anaheim Angels, now the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and the National Hockey League's Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. He has also served as Information Director for the Big West Conference (1993-97), and started his professional sports administration career with the National Football League's Los Angeles Rams as the Assistant Director of Public Relations (1989-91) and Assistant Director of Sales and Promotions (1992-93).
The native Ohioan received his bachelor's degree from the Ohio University Scripps School of Journalism and his master's from the Ohio University Sports Administration Program. Bickmeier will transition with his family to the Richmond area over the next few months.
"Dennis is a well-respected sports management executive having spent his career working within motorsports as well as with other professional sport leagues," stated ISC's President, John Saunders. "Having spent the past 10 years at two of ISC's motorsports facilities, he is well prepared to take the helm of Richmond International Raceway. His proven management and leadership skills will facilitate a smooth transition from Michigan to Richmond. We congratulate him on his new position and look forward to his continued success within ISC."
"I would also like to thank Doug for his many years of service at both ISC and at Richmond. I wish him much success in his future endeavors."
Commenting on the announcement, Dennis Bickmeier stated, "It has been a privilege and personally rewarding to be a part of Michigan International Speedway for the past three and half years. While I will miss all the wonderful people at Michigan, I am excited to be joining Richmond International Raceway. I am appreciative of this exciting opportunity and look forward to a great future with much enthusiasm."

By: Akram Saqib |

The Terrible Two's - Toddler Terrorism and What to Expect
By: David Laird |
Few first-time parents have any idea of what behaviour to expect from a toddler. As a result, parents end up spending much of the time feeling guilty, inadequate, blaming themselves and believing they are the only parents who can't control their children. The truth is that although each child is different and behaviour can vary widely, the normal toddler is far from being the little angel you may have been imagining.

Iggy has the right idea, when things get rough, focus your energy into something positive. For Iggy, that seems to be horseback riding.
After Nick Young's teammate De'Angelo Russell secretly recorded him admitting to cheating on Iggy, sources have said the Young and Azalea are not in a good place while others claim that they are.

According to the source, Young and Azalea plan to talk and working things out. But on Twitter, a fan reached out to Iggy and said someone had a video and was waiting for Iggy to do something before she leaked it. Iggy response was very straight forward:
"If there is proof of cheating, she'd be doing me a favor to post it actually. I'm not tryna marry a cheater."
While Iggy was horseback riding in Calabasas, Nick was in Miami getting ready for his game against the Heat.
