PlayStation helped Monster Hunter World become a success, says Capcom
There have been many contributors to the tale of Monster Hunter World's success.
For Capcom, spending years to work on a Western-facing new game like Monster Hunter World and not on a surefire handheld iteration for the historically Japanese top seller, was a big risk.
According to Capcom Europe COO Stuart Turner, Capcom feared the gamble to go after the worldwide/Western audience of mostly consoles players could cut off their main fan base in Japan, who mostly care about handheld Monster Hunter.
"They were guaranteed three or four million sales in Japan. For a risk-averse Japanese company, that's a great big gamble," Turner told Games Industry. "Having said that, Japan bought the game in its millions."
Part of why Monster Hunter World was successful, both in Japan and over the world, is owed to Sony's support. "The risk was mitigated by Sony's support, and Sony Japan in particular, who felt Monster Hunter coming to home consoles was going to sell some PS4s… and they were right," explained EMEA marketing director Antoine Molant.
In order for a gamble like Monster Hunter World to work, Capcom had to treat it like a new IP. Many markets worldwide, including ones where handheld Monster Hunter games sell, largely didn't know what Monster Hunter is.
"It was almost a new IP in some markets. Even in some of our more mature European markets, it is still fairly unknown," Turner added.
Monster Hunter World's online features are outdated by today's standards, with many simple interactions and tasks requiring awkward menu navigating through different layers of systems that can over-complicate the simple task of playing with friends.
With that said, it's still the most online-enabled of any Monster Hunter game, and it was necessary for Capcom to make this transition if it wanted anyone to care about Monster Hunter in the West.
"In my 12 years of being here, the drum has been banged that Monster Hunter could sell easily in the West if it was on the right platform and if it embraced online gaming," said Turner.
Now that the experiment has proved successful, Capcom can now more confidently push for an even bigger success in the West with future iterations, according to Turner.
Monster Hunter World is Capcom's best selling game ever, totalling 8.3 million units by last count. The PC version of World releases in just two days.

Video: Boys Noize – 2 Live
German producer Alex Ridha, AKA Boys Noize, is riding high off of his recent North American tour. The music trailblazer keeps the momentum going with the release of his new music video for song "2LIVE" featuring T.E.E.D. from his 4th studio album Mayday.
Along with a new music video, Boys Noize also announces a string of European headline tour dates. The Boys Noize Warehaus Tour 2017 features some major warehaus spots in cities like London on February 11 and Glasgow's Sub Club on February 12, Paris on March 4th and and Berlin on March 31st for instance.
The video for the explosive song is directed by LIL INTERNET AND SUSBOY and follows a young couple as they run through the outskirts of Mexico City together. Exploring the complex and euphoric facets of being in love, the music video captures what happens when young love is combined with technology — a virtual reality love affair, if you will.
October was an extremely busy month for the German producer all while he toured North-America:
He released of a Midnight Remixes EP which includes the techno-centric rendition of Audion (aka Matthew Dear), a hybrid sound of dub and techno by Addison Groove, and a stellar raw mix by Alex Ridha and his buddy Mr. Oizo under their Handbraekes moniker.
His Oliver Stone collaboration of the music video for "Mayday" for the theater movie Snowden came to light. The remarkable, much talked about site 4Chan uniquely premiere the video on their 404 Error page.
After a full week of rehearsals (see here), Boys Noize collaborated with Bon Iver's Justin Vernon, Marijuana Deathsquads and The National's Dessner brothers in Berlin for the 2 night event at the start of October.
Lastly, Alex Ridha made an ultimate, deep cut Daft Punk tribute mixtape of Roulé & Crydamoure labels releases HERE on Soundcloud + YouTube HERE.

UPDATE: Gov. Christie has declared a state of emergency for Ocean, Atlantic and Cape May counties.
By John Cifelli
NJTV News Meteorologist
– Biggest Impact: Coastal Flooding, Coastal Winds
– Decreased Threat of Heavy Rain
– Storm to Stall, Drift Toward New Jersey on Sunday
Rainfall from Hermine has overspread Cape May and other portions of extreme southeast New Jersey. The storm center is still located just east of the Virginia/North Carolina border, with sustained winds of 65 mph: a healthy and potent tropical storm. Ocean water temperatures along the coast and offshore in Hermine's path are in the mid-70s. With Hermine's anticipated path northeast of her current location, the warm ocean waters will help the system to maintain its strength. Hermine now has both tropical and extratropical characteristics, so it's perhaps best to classify the storm as a hybrid system. Meteorological semantics really, because the regardless of how the system is defined or classified, it doesn't change the severity of impact or threat it poses to New Jersey.
As the afternoon progresses today, the storm center will slide east-northeast before slowing and meandering further north, bringing its closest approach to New Jersey by Monday morning. The next 36 hours are a critical period for determining the level of impact that rain and wind will have on the eastern and southern parts of the state. If Hermine's center drifts north sooner than later today, a larger swath of the state will experience stronger wind and more rains than if she swings out further east than turning north. The threat of coastal flooding is set in stone regardless of exact path and it will be a major issue for at least the southern half of the coast, if not further north as well.
The worst threat for coastal flooding will be with the high tides of Sunday night, Monday morning and Monday night as Hermine spins off the coast. The easterly, then northeasterly winds likely meeting tropical storm force criteria for the coastline will hamper the ability of water to drain out of the bays and tidal rivers during the low tide periods. The recent new moon will only augment the high tide water levels, further increasing the threat of major flooding. High tides arrive around 7 a.m. and p.m. on Sunday, and closer to 8 a.m. and p.m. on Monday.
Heavy rainfall will only further exacerbate flooding issues; Hermine's path is therefore so critical to the safety of coastal communities. New Jersey will dance along the western edge of the precipitation shield, and there will be a sharp cut-off of rainfall to the west. Cape May, Atlantic and eastern Ocean counties will likely see two to four inches of rain. A slight jog west can increase those totals, and spread significant rain back toward I-95 as well. Worst stretch for rain looks to be Sunday evening into Monday morning, although bands of rain squalls could push west from the storm across the state at any time over the next three days. Rain will likely be periodic in nature, especially away from the coast where it will be steadiest and heaviest.
With Hermine slated to spin off our coastline through Wednesday, heavy surf will batter the beaches, causing significant beach erosion and dune breaches.
Coastal residents, if they haven't already, should make every preparation and take every precaution for flooding, power outages and wind damage. Hermine will likely etch her name in the book of memorable New Jersey weather events by the time she finally weakens and drifts east by Wednesday.

When I was a kid I always used to like watching that cheesy yet insightful movie The Princess Bride. It's known as one of those films that have innovative and unique lines that make it a common "movie quote" film. One of those famous lines is when Vizzini keeps repeating the word "inconceivable" throughout the movie. Finally, Inigo Montoya replies back, "You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means." Montoya was right because if most everything is "inconceivable" as Vizzini declares, then that word ceases to make any sense. Indeed, if everything is inconceivable, then nothing is inconceivable as the definition of inconceivable implies something that is rare. Very often people will repeatedly chant certain words or slogans but never think through what the word actually means. This very much goes on in our modern pop culture. But, instead of simply reciting these words that are churned up in the pop culture, let's pull a Montoya – and ask what does this word actually mean.
The modern culture can be manipulative at projecting ideas through clever emotional phrases. If you study philosophy, you'll realize that the pop culture uses little if any rational logic in articulating ideas. All the pop culture does is use cunning words that are designed to stimulate your emotions. In this sense, the pop culture can change people's concept of a word through clever marketing.
A slogan going around today churned up by the pop culture is: "don't be judgmental." It has become the defense mechanism of the younger generation to shout: "Don't judge me!" As I will show, this slogan is nothing more than a clever re-packaging of a neutral word turned now into a negative word.
Most people don't even think about what the word judgment means. Rather, we simply chant "don't judge me" because we've been trained by the pop culture to sheepishly nod in approval to this slogan. But, I want to zoom in on this phrase to see if it makes any sense at all. The official etymology of the root word "judge" is a verb that states: "to form an opinion about; to make a decision." Therefore, to make judgments is to make a declarative statement that something is right or wrong, good or bad – much like a judge. It is impossible not to judge. Throughout a person's day, we make numerous judgment calls about what is right and what is wrong. From telling your children "no" or "yes," to giving a critique about a TV show, movie, restaurant, etc. In fact, our entire moral code becomes meaningless without making judgments. The second we make an opinion, we simultaneously make a judgment. Everyone is judgmental against rape, torture, and murder. We usher judgment statements anytime we use the word "should" or "shouldn't." Everyone makes judgments! In fact, I bet the reader right now is making a judgment on this article.
There are several other problems with this "don't judge me" theory. First, it is self-contradictory. Do you notice that a person is using judgment to tell others not to judge? When a person states, "You shouldn't be judgmental," do you see that that person is being judgmental in that very statement. So, the "don't judge" statement is utterly self-defeating. Also, that person is being hypocritical in using judgment to say to people don't judge. It is hypocritical when you do the very thing you say not to do.
What generally happens is that someone will make the claim that Jesus himself said not to be judgmental. However, this is merely a superficial reading of the text in the Sermon on the Mount. Let's take a close look at this passage to see what Jesus really means here. The text begins: "Do not judge." But that's only the first three words and not even the complete sentence of the verse. The passage goes on to put everything in context.
"Do not judge that you may not be judged. For as you judge, so will you be judge, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." (Matthew 7:1-6)
Jesus is not saying don't judge. He is telling us how to judge; by not judging others with the very same thing we do. He is saying, "Don't be a hypocrite." And verse 5 suggests that a person cleans up his own junk, then he can help tell his friend about their junk. Jesus is stating the obvious. That when you judge people, they will turn around and judge you back for that very thing you criticized them for. So, make sure your closet is clean first, and then you can tell your friend their closet has junk in it and needs cleaning. Recall, that when a person says "don't judge" they are being hypocritical as they are doing the very thing they are saying not to. When we realize that Jesus is saying don't judge like a hypocrite, we come to the ironic conclusion that Jesus is actually condemning the very hypocritical nature of the "don't judge" crowd.
And then there is John 7:24: "Do not judge by appearances, but judge justly." Here, Jesus is differentiating between proper and improper judgment. But, he still commands to judge! Notice he again is telling us how to judge. Again, he is stating the obvious: Don't be quick to judge, and don't judge by initial appearances. In other words, before you judge make sure you have all the facts in place so you can make an accurate call – much like a real judge. So, it is more accurate for people to say "don't misjudge me" rather than "don't judge me."
Additionally, it is important to ask what we need to judge. Do we judge the acts of the person or the person as a whole? Well, the only thing we can accurately judge is the persons actions and not the person as a whole. Why? Because we don't have full access to the entire person – we don't know the state of that person's soul. Only God knows this. But, we do have access to the actions of that person.
Why is it even necessary to make a judgement of a persons actions? Because right ordering a persons actions is loving that person. For example, let's say someone you love is addicted to smoking. If you don't hate their act, you don't love that person. It is because their addiction to smoking deteriorates the good nature of that person that the act of smoking needs to be flushed out. In other words, if the negative act is not judged and taken out, the person as a whole will be taken down by this negative act. So, in order to love that person you have to judge their negative acts precisely because their negative acts destroy that person. Additionally, the whole idea of judgement is geared to judging the act and the not letting the bad act define the person as a whole. This was summed up nicely by St. Augustine, "Love the sinner, and hate the sin." So, in applying how to judge it is more accurate to say, don't make a wholesale judgement of that person based on their actions, but rather judge their actions so as to help them become a better person.
What the pop culture has done is to take the idea to not judge the person as a whole and stretched it out to apply not judging any acts of the person. But, as I've shown to not judge any acts is an absurdity because if you did this, the entire moral law would be abolished. This would mean you could never utter the word "should" or "shouldn't" at all. Today, the pop culture has given the word judgmental a new tone. Do you see how clever marketing by the pop culture can take a word and make it appear negative? Do you see that if you obey the guidance from the pop culture you are being cunningly tricked into following nonsense? The pop culture is deceptively sneaky in misconstruing the word judge (and other words too).
Now that we can see that to judge is a neutral word, we need to ask the deeper question of why this word has become some negative today? In other words, when we do judge a persons actions why does that person then respond with an emotional objection? Why don't they see we are only trying to help them? I propose the answer goes back to that entity that communicates these expressive words to people – the pop culture. Sadly, the pop culture has basically brainwashed people to respond to certain words or phrases with knee-jerk emotions void of any rational thought. So, that person has lost his or her ability to respond as a rational, insightful person. The pop culture essentially turns a person from a normal, rational respectful human being into a an out of control emotional mess every time that person hears a certain "trigger" word. Indeed, psychology indicates that when a person cannot respond rationally to an objection, this suggests that person has been negatively influenced by an outside party.
This idea is known in psychology as Cognitive Dissonance Theory. Cognitive Dissonance Theory describes what happens to a person when that person realizes what they want to be true is not true in reality. And the more committed a person is to what they want to be true, the more their brain experiences a "dissonance" when they realize their truth is not the truth. Now, there are times when what you want to be true is, in fact, true in reality. Small example, a New England Patriot fan wants the Patriots to be the best team in the NFL, and sure enough some years they are the best team in the NFL. Now, rather than talk about sports teams, let's insert bigger truth claims that drive people's entire world view from religion, politics, philosophy, sex, etc. We notice that people get so caught up in their world view because their internal world view is what they want to be true. People generally don't perform extensive research to find out what is true, thus how to think. Rather, people adopt a way of thinking because a certain ideology fits nicely into what they want to be true.
In order to examine the motives behind what a person wants to be true, the real question we need to zoom in on is – where did this idea of what you want to be true come from? Did it come from an inside source (God) or an outside source (pop culture). One way to tell where people's thoughts came from is to look at their reaction.
Cognitive Dissonance reveals also that when people respond only with an emotional outburst, void of any logical reasoning, chances are their way of thinking has been manipulated by an outside source. For example, a rabid sports fan has received their passion for their team from an outside source – their cultural environment (family, city, local news media, etc.). In a sense you can say that person has been brainwashed by an outside source to be a committed fan of the team. Now, as soon as they are presented with the fact that runs counter to their brainwashing (their team is not the best), they then respond not with not a rational response, but more of an emotional freak out (bad mood, don't want to be talk to, yells at the tv, etc.).
Therefore, if this outside source that made a person think a certain way cannot provide that person with logical reasons and instead provides him only with an emotional reaction, then that source is a fraud. Once we see that the pop culture does not present people with good reasons, rather only with emotional slogans and talking points, we can see that the pop culture is a fraud.
Cognitive Dissonance Theory also indicates that as a result of this brainwashing from an outside source, a person will turn from a rational, mature adult into a whiny at times out of control child. Because of this brain-washing when people come to the realization that their way of thinking is wrong (or likely wrong), they will revert to childish or in some cases violent tactics in order to get out of the conversation and get back to "their truth."
Instead of responding with logical evidence for their actions or in a respectful manner, they respond more with an emotional outburst – "Don't judge me!" But, if it were so obvious that the judgement call was wrong, it should be easy for that person to give reasons why. But, they don't have any good reasons which is why all they can do is simply shout emotional slogans – like "don't judge."
Another popular emotional response that is void of any logic is "you're being close-minded." When looked at carefully this phrase doesn't make any sense either. You can't simply say the word "close-minded" as if the word is self evident and speaks for itself. Indeed, there are many times when being closed-minded is necessary. Everyone is close-minded of rape, murder, and torture. So, just saying the world "close-minded" doesn't prove anything except that your reasoning is clouded by emotions. You can't simply chant emotional slogans without referencing what they actually mean. I repeatedly have to explain to my students you need to explain your thoughts, not just recite vague, meaningless talking points.
When people give these emotional responses it implies that they have no good reasons. Therefore, they need to revert to last resort – attempt to name call to make the problem go away. This emotional objection void of any adequate logic in "don't judge me" sounds curiously like a 5 year-old whining when they don't get their way. Do you see how the brain washing of the pop culture diminishes the human being from a rational, thinking adult to now acting like a child?
What is really going on today in our pop culture is that phrase "don't be judgmental" and "your intolerant" is nothing more than a sneaky way in which people try to duck out of the conversation because they have suddenly realized their thinking is flawed. Cognitive Dissonance Theory illuminates that this emotional reaction is nothing more than the old strategy of if you can't take down the message, take down the messenger.
There is even more problems with this childlike temper tantrum. Cognitive Dissonance also indicates that by responding with an emotional outburst of "don't be judgmental" that person is most likely emotionally unstable and over-sensitive to having their thoughts and actions proven incorrectly. This suggests they have an over abundance of self-pride – "I can never be wrong." When a person's has an out-of-control reaction whenever their way of thinking is corrected, all this shows is how much the pop culture has negatively coddled them with the idea "you are never wrong." Indeed, when a person has the idea they are never wrong, all that will follow is a self-centered absorption of themselves. Sadly, all the pop culture is doing is creating self-absorbed people who are losing the ability to act in a mature manner.
What we see with the "don't be judgement" slogan is merely someone who doesn't want to be told what to do. When a person holds on to the concept of not wanting to be told what to do, they automatically get pulled into the old religion of self-worship. This is the dreadful concept that lead to mankind's great fall in Genesis: "I will not follow God's instructions. I determine the instructions and don't need any authority to listen to." Can this idea be anymore self-absorbed? The don't be judgemental phrase is simply a cover for the old sin of human pride. And when pride meats the truth and gets exposed, an emotional reaction will follow just as sure as night follows day. And this is exactly what Cognitive Dissonance Theory explains.
Now, Christianity declares that humanity is flawed. Thus, we should expect this type of child-like response as our flawed nature does not want to be judged. However, if we are flawed that implies we have problems – thus, our actions need to be judged. If you're humble enough to know your sick, you'll be honest enough to hear the judgmental news that you're sick. It's never pleasant to hear some hard (but loving) truth. As I wise man once said, "Faithful are the wounds of a friend" (Proverbs 27:6) Do we like it? Of course not. But we need it.
So, in sum if an entity communicates a message that relies more on emotion and less on reason and a person's response to an objection of this message is based on more emotion and less reason, then the conclusion is that person has been duped by a false source. And as we zoom out on this picture, we see that this false source today is the pop culture.
Let's sum up what this fake entity known as the pop culture does to people. It uses cleverly crafted emotional phrases that turns rational thinking adults into whiny children. It also manipulates people into a bland self-absorption of themselves in which they can never be told they are wrong. Furthermore, it causes people to become an emotional mess when they are shown a fact that runs counter to the brainwashing of the pop culture. We can now see that the pop culture sadly destroys the human person.
When people keep reciting these predictable emotional slogans of the pop culture (don't be judgmental, close-minded, etc.), I suspect they don't know they have been brain washed into saying them. They don't even know what these slogans mean. Occasionally, we need an Inigo Montoya to come along and tell them, "I don't think that word means what you think it means." This Montoya quote can help a confused and desperate generation away from the bland messaging of the pop culture and into the truth.

SMG4: Mario The Ultimate Gamer is the thirty-fifth episode of Season 8 and the four hundred and twenty-eighth overall to be uploaded by SMG4.
Tari makes her debut in this episode. It was aired on August 25, 2018.
Mario has had enough of being beaten by SMG4 at video games and embarks on a journey to become... the Ultimate Gamer.
The episode starts with Mario and SMG4 standing outside the castle War of the Fat Italians style before charging at each other and switching to the Garry's Mod 2D ragdoll modeled combat. Turned out both of them were playing Super Smash each other in the ass Bros. where eventually, SMG4 defeated Mario. It also turned out that Mario lost to SMG4 for the 20th time with SMG4 mocking Mario just sucked at gaming. Mario had enough of losing and said he was going to train to become better than SMG4 before leaving the game room, although the latter was laughing as he bragged that Mario would not keep to his words.
Turned out SMG4 was right as Mario could later be seen eating ice cream at the mall which he treated as hard training. He then heard some commotion and headed to the source of it to find a huge crowd at a game store surrounding Bob Bobowski and Tari as they were about to begin playing Super Smash each other in the ass Bros.. When Mario asked Fishy Boopkins who was also part of the crowd, the spike responded saying that Bob challenged Tari to a game of Super Smash each other in the ass Bros. and that she was also one of the best players of the game in the world. Bob proceeded to taunt Tari saying that girls were bad gamers. When the round started, Bob, who chose Dr. Eggman as his character said she, as a Yoshi in the game, would never defeat him but was proven wrong when she easily knocked out Dr. Eggman, causing the crowd to cheer for her. Tari then smugly left, with Bob saying that he only lost because he went easy on her and wanted a rematch. Impressed with her easy sweep over Bob, Mario wanted her to teach him how to be good at the game and went after her. After getting her attention albeit spooking her a brunch, especially when his head just appeared out of the drink vending machine, causing her to be blasted onto a snack vending machine which gave her a free bag of chips, she introduced herself as Tari as a way of thanking the plumber for letting her have the free chip. Mario wanted her to teach him how to not suck at video gaming and at first, she declined due to claiming she only played for a living. Mario insisted, reminding her of her total victory over Bob, who came over to tell Tari to "Suck a dick." before leaving. Once he begged her, she relented, saying that she would try to help train Mario. When she said that, he went super ecstatic, to the point he was dancing naked. A Goomba walked by but was shocked to see him naked. Tari then told him that she did not know Mario, which was true since she only just met him.
As they were walking down a hallway, Mario asked what secret techniques would she teach but Tari said she needed to know how good Mario's skill was. With that said, they headed to the arcade to test Mario's capability. In it, she and Mario began a game of Super Smash each other in the ass Bros. where Mario just mashed buttons. Tari, as Yoshi in-game, timed when to hit Mario and proceeded to instantly knock him out. Mario reacted to the loss badly but Tari said that she had an idea and headed to it, although Mario proceeded to flip her off behind her back. They went to a Whack-A-Mole game called Whack A Luigi that had the Luigi Dolls as the moles.
Mario did not know why she suggested that game but Tari responded saying that he needed more than just button mashing skills and that she needed Mario to focus. Mario hated being told to focus because he was always focused, although, in his mind, he was focused on Baldi doing the Fortnite Dance on a spaghetti background. Tari decided to believe him and started the machine for Mario to play. Mario, determined to win, proceeded to repeatedly hammer the machine in the bid to hit the Luigi Dolls. However, he was too focused on the game to take notice Tari telling him to stop, forcing her to find a quick solution: In this case, Popo's "ice cream", which was actually a Freezie, and throwing it at him, causing Mario to be encased in ice. Not only was Mario now frozen, but he also scored 0 points. Tari then reminded Mario to focus, which he finally did by clearing his mind of Baldi dancing and spaghetti. When he did that, he managed to hit the Luigi Doll a few times consecutively. Tari was happy that Mario got the idea of focusing and told him that they could move onto another game but as she was on the panel, Mario accidentally smashed her face.
The next game was a crane game. Tari said it was her favorite game and explained that it would help train hand-eye coordination, accuracy, agility, and chronic gambling addiction for kids. Mario, uninterested at first suddenly wanted to play the game badly due to seeing a partly eaten pizza in the crane game, although Tari suspected that someone might have dropped it in the box. He tried grabbing the pizza a few times but gotten a Thomas the Tank Transformer, Shy Guy, and Pengaz. Unhappy with what he got, Tari encouraged him to focus. He did that and the crane smashed through its box to grab Toad. Toad was suddenly shocked to find he was grabbed by a crane and proceeded to hold onto a nearby arcade machine to not be dragged any further. Tari, realizing the situation, used another crane to help Mario grab Toad.
Tari had one more lesson for Mario. Mario thought it would be a super-secret technique but Tari said it was even better. They could later be seen at a park with Tari feeding some (Duck Hunt) ducks. Mario was confused as to how this would help him be a better gamer but Tari replied saying that it was important to stay calm before a match. When she turned to ask if the ducks agreed, one of them, which crept up to eat the bread Tari was offering had now bitten into her arm, causing her to flail in pain.
Mario did what she said and found that her wailing in pain was actually pretty relaxing. With that, Tari concluded the training and Mario felt ready to fight. He asked her to come with him to defeat SMG4 but she declined, saying she had to feed the ducks. He thanked her for the help and went off to face SMG4. She then felt relieved as she did not want to meet new people, recalling the earlier incident at the mall and that she was happier where she was. While she said that, both of her hands were bitten by the ducks, causing her to be in shock.
Back in the castle, both Mario and SMG4 had a rematch. Mario did better than last time but SMG4 still had the upper hand. Mario then remembered Tari's words on focusing, just to really hear those words. He turned around to see Tari telling him to focus and that she came to cheer for Mario, just to fall down an unstable, collapsing support platform.
With that, Mario suddenly improved drastically, shocking SMG4 into doing even harder. However, in the last few seconds of the match, Mario delivered a finishing blow to SMG4, winning him the game. SMG4 became morbid that he lost while Mario was super ecstatic that he won. SMG4, crying to the door knowing that Mario would not let this go, suddenly saw Tari at the door, who quickly left. Mario however, dragged her back into the room to comment on how he won thanks to her training. Tari then saw SMG4 sad because of his recent loss and asked him if he wanted to play for fun, which he agreed to. The video ends with SMG4 and Tari playing Super Smash each other in the ass Bros. and Mario flaunting his victory over SMG4 at him and even going naked.

Fixed Bridges
Fixed Bridges
When replacing missing teeth, there are more options than people realize. One of these is a fixed bridge. This technique has been used for many years and is highly successful.
What Is a Fixed Bridge?
With a fixed bridge, teeth on either side of the space where a missing tooth once was are prepared for a crown. Then these crowns become the anchors of the bridge. In the middle of the bridge is the false tooth that fills in the space where the missing tooth was located.
Bridges vs. Implants: Which Is Best?
Dental implants have come to be considered the "gold standard" for missing teeth. However, they are not right for everyone. Patients who need a more affordable option or who have concerns regarding missing bone or healing time can opt for dental bridges instead.

Crowns & Bridgework
Replacing missing teeth — even the ones in back — is important to help restore chewing ability as well as preserve facial contours and reestablish a pleasing smile. Most crowns are made of tooth-colored ceramic materials, which are shaped to look and function just like normal healthy teeth. Crowns and bridgework may sometimes be the best tooth-replacement option, especially when dental implants aren't an option… Read Article

Is this the proper nectar plant for honey bees? I see a couple variations listed everywhere. Is this the correct one to plant?
Thanks for looking
Vitex is mobbed by bees here in texas. I haven't paid any attention to varieties, the trees we have were given to us by neighbors. They bloom for a comparatively long time in summer.
...We don't see things as they are, we see things as WE are...
Thank you Lburou, that's what I'd like on my yard too! Can't seem to find out which variation I need though.
I had seeds of the Vitex Agnes Castes sent to me from Frisco Texas, these were from Vitex trees growing around a park area in Frisco. When I planted these seeds a fair number germinated and I put them out on my boundary line, however the leaves were not the same as the trees that the seeds came from. The seeds were from the Agnes castes tree which has narrow leaves with smooth edges the seedlings from those trees had leaves slightly broader with sort of toothed edges and it also did not grow into single stemmed trees but grew into a large multi stemmed bush which I think is the variety Negundo. I have purchased a number of vitex Agnes castes which have grown into small trees the flowers are bright blue and attractive and are really worked by bumbles mostly with a honey bee here and there from time to time. The Negundo bushes flower earlier than the Agnes castes and are really buzzing with all types of pollinators including a large amount of honey bees, yet the flowers are pale small and nondescript. and when the Agnes castes has finished flowering the Negundo just keeps going and going. The agnes castes trees took quite a hammering with the cold winter just gone by and there was quite some die back but they have recovered. The Negundo did not have any problems so bustossa you should bear this in mind as you are a little North of my location. Personally I will be removing stuff the bees are not working and will be planting much more of the negundo Vitex next spring.
Johno, I sure hope the negundo pans out. Looking to throw them into the ground ASAP! I hope old man winter doesn't kill them. I want them to grow and prosper for my little buddies. My area is seeing a dearth right about now and it would be great in the future for them to work something like this.

She passes the intervening time by lip-synching to the automated messages, adding in hand and arm gestures like some kind of impromptu semaphore. Waiting, however, turns into something that's insidiously Kafka-esque: when the disembodied voice starts giving Couvreur various tasks, she complies – even when the instructions veer away from clapping in response to questions and into more prurient, humiliating commands. What started out as a whimsical, funny solo about interacting with faceless technologies morphs into a darkly troubling vision of a computerised bureaucracy where we are just numbers being crunched in the machines.

Winter Warm-Up
It's too cold. I'll get sick. I might slip and fall." All common excuses for avoiding exercise when the seasons change. With four to six months of winter in many parts of the country, you can't afford to skip winter exercise altogether. For both physical and mental well-being, the human body needs activity all year round. Whether you find creative ways to exercise indoors or dive into the great outdoors, maintaining an exercise regimen through the holidays and beyond will not only keep you fit, but also give you a head start come spring.
If you don't want to stay cooped up inside for months, exercising outdoors can be a great way to stay in shape while appreciating the sights and sounds of winter. From snowball fights and sledding to snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, a host of outdoor activities awaits you. Of course, if you have any medical conditions or concerns about outdoor exercise, check with your doctor first. Here are a few tips to help make the most of your time outdoors:
Dress for the Cold.
Protect Your Skin.
Drink Fluids.
Beware of Wind Chill.
Don't Push Your Luck.
Despite all the excuses for not wanting to face the elements, there are times when it is wise to avoid outdoor activities. If you are too cozy in front of the fireplace to brave the outdoors, try one of these indoor workout options.
Walk the Mall.
Hit the Gym.
Take a Dip.
No Need to Leave Home.
Winter can be one of the most exhilarating times of the year. With the sun and snow and a variety of winter sports to choose from, there's no reason to hibernate indoors. It may be chilly and downright freezing at times, but your body still craves at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. Stay indoors if you have to, but if the conditions are decent and you dress appropriately, you still can walk, run, hike and play sports outside. Once you get going, you won't even notice the cold.

We headed over to Bernkastel-Kues for their wine fest this morning. We arrived early and beat the rush and fight for parking. It was a gorgeous day and a beautiful town to walk around in.
Just below me was a Bernese Mountain Dog that I just wanted to grab and run away with.
I believe Jane said this one smelled like pink lemonade
These guys were enthusiastic musicians that the crowd was loving.

I swear she was nearly drunk with happiness about this balloon. She couldn't stop giggling and cooing over it.

3 May 2016
Green councillors on Norfolk County Council have slammed Labour's approach to devolution, following Conservative minister James Wharton's assertion that a deal has "already been agreed". [1]
Labour leader of the council George Nobbs was a strong supporter of the plans until recently, declaring himself "personally delighted" with Chancellor George Osborne's announcement of the draft agreement in his budget speech in March. [2] Labour and Conservative county councillors voted to push forward with devolution plans at a meeting earlier this month, with only Greens and three others against.
However, Cllr Nobbs changed his tune earlier this month when he finally declared the process to be "a shambles".
Green councillor Andrew Boswell said: "George Nobbs and other council leaders in the region have been dazzled by the government's promises of funding, and have totally failed to challenge the governance structure being imposed by the Government – which is disastrous for democracy and communities. At Council, Mr Nobbs appeared to have little grasp of the detail: he has shown himself to be utterly in thrall to Tory ministers rather than fighting for the best deal for Norfolk. I have no confidence in him leading on the next stages of negotiating.
"The Greens have been the only party to consistently oppose this ill-conceived, top-down proposal, which will destroy local government and do nothing to benefit the people of Norfolk."
Fellow Green councillor Adrian Dearnley added: "We repeatedly warned George Nobbs and the council last year that the so-called devolution deal was a runaway train which would be difficult to stop. Yet he and other council leaders, with almost no questions asked, signed a deal that we are now being told is non-negotiable."
The Greens' opposition to the devolution proposals is based on several factors, including the undemocratic nature of the deal and the process, and the focus on business growth rather than quality of life, social justice and tackling climate change.
Richard Bearman, who is leader of the county council's Green group, commented: "The process has been dictated by government ministers – but our objection is also to the content of the agreement. There is no mention at all of climate change, the biggest issue facing us this century. The focus is on road-building and other high-carbon-emitting infrastructure projects, with no plans for how we might build more resilient and sustainable communities.
"We want to see real localism. Instead, this government is imposing a deal, and trying to set regions up in competition with one another, playing on councils' fear of losing even more resources.
"Without proper funding, this deal is just devolution of blame for austerity. It baffles me how so many councils, including many Labour councils around the country, have simply gone along with it unquestioningly."

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the New York Giants and DE Osi Umenyiora's representation are working on some sort of compromise to bring an end to the impasse that has been playing out over the last week or so.
So far the Giants have offered to include incentives in Umenyiora's current deal that would payout once he reached the 13.5 sacks mark. Last year only four players (DeMarcus Ware, Tamba Hali, Cameron Wake and Clay Matthews) managed to reach that total while Umenyiora finished with two shy with 11.5 sacks. In fact Umenyiora has only reach or gone over 13.5 sacks once in his seven-year career.
Umenyiora's representation has asked that the final year of his contract be voided if they agree to these terms.
Overall it seems like a reasonable deal for both sides as the Giants would ensure that Umenyiora remains productive in his final season while he would be allowed to seek the longterm contract that he is currently seeking.

Many consumers are worried if the use of compatible or aftermarket printing supplies will void their printer's warranty. The answer is no.
More simply put, this means that your printer warranty cannot be voided just because you choose to use compatible products unless the manufacturer can prove that the compatible product caused direct damage to your printer. In cases such as this, the manufacturer may choose not to repair your printer but your warranty would remain in effect for all other warranty issues.

At a meeting on Thursday, Punjab government decided to fully implement the new security plans for educational institutions. This is a much needed step after the recent wave of terrorist attacks all over the country and especially keeping in mind the Peshawar APS attack in 2014 which left more than 200 people dead.
The meeting was held at the School Education Department (SED) and reviewed by officials for both private and public schools.
Three Major Phases of Security
The security plan implemented earlier right after the APS attack has three phases. If these phases are properly implemented, only then a school is granted clearance to operate.
These security phases are:
- Appointing experienced guards at all entry points of the school,
- Raising boundary walls and putting up barbed wires on the walls,
- Installing security cameras.
However, fearing more attacks on schools, the government has decided to further enhance the security system in the country to ensure the children's safety.
Provincial Government Will Provide Assistance
The Minister of Punjab School Education, Rana Mashhood, said that the provincial government was in the process of implementing a method through which educational institutions would be supported in the beefing up of their security systems. All private and public schools have been ordered to ensure the proper update to their security systems to prevent any future attacks on the next generation of the country and to ensure their safety.
Furthermore, proper screening and monitoring of teachers, students, van drivers, and people who come to pick and drop the students from the schools is also required. CCTV cameras and careful monitoring of everything is an integral part of the security provided at the schools.
Are we coming to a stage where each student might need to be equipped with a weapon for security ???.

In order for us, educators, to be true to our message of heightening the value of what we include in our respective curricula, we must subject ourselves to what we assign our students. I have always liked the idea of assigning STEAM projects in all my classes. But, this belief of mine in the value of such projects must be practiced, not just preached to my students. So, I began a tradition of forcing myself to complete a project whenever I assign one to my own students. This way I would put myself in their shoes and experience what they go through to some extent on one hand and make them realize that I myself do value what I assign them on the other hand.
In this summer's Physical Science for Elementary Teachers course, which I teach at Central Michigan University (CMU) center in Traverse City, I assigned each student a specific chapter from the course eTextbook. The students have to complete a STEAM project that must center on the main concepts and ideas of their respective assigned chapter. They choose to invent a device (I call TinkerVention), write a piece of code, or create an art piece that encapsulates what they have understood and learned from the assigned chapter. Some students paint, others build gadgets, and yet others submit creative writing pieces. I chose to complete a creative writing piece, which is centered on the concepts of bonds in chemistry because this was the subject of the chapter that was my assignment. In addition, I wanted to impress upon my students the fact that as a student I always like the idea of being a bit of an overachiever. So, I assigned myself yet another chapter (while they had to produce a STEAM project for only one chapter) and I chose to write an acrostic poem and a couple of aphorisms and the subject of radioactivity. Below is my STEAM projects and in another future blog I shall share some of my students'. Enjoy but keep in mind that my command of the English language is that of someone whose English is a third language.
Tale of Three Love Cities
by Mr. Le Nadj!
Long before time was a concept, and long before space was an abode, and long before Linus and Lewis became household names, there were three cities. They were cities where love was the law, passion was the creed, and science was the lingua franca of the land. Unlike your typical human cities, theses cities bore names that were exquisite in nature and fascinating in type. There was ionic city, covalent city, and metallic city.
They were cities where bonds thrive, kisses fly, and above all electric live reigns supreme. The dwellers of these cities of love were strange creatures! They were not human yet all humans were made of them. They certainly were not objects yet all objects contained them. They had no limbs and they had no body parts, instead they had swarms of particles around them, dots everywhere! Whenever one tries to spot them, they diffuse into nothingness as matter waves. Instead of having bodies, like you and me, these quantum creatures have emptiness that is eerily yet so beautifully adorned with miniscule hearts that throb positivity and breath neutrality.
Ionic love city is the epitome of bilateralism. Half of its population consists of generous givers and the other half is but a band of selfish takers. This binary nature of the dwellers of this city made it a prime example of what a love city ought to look like. The takers love the givers and the givers could not resist being too far out of sight of their donated dots. Thus, just as every Juliet long for her Romeo, does every Io in IoNic city long for her Nic! Sodium loves Chlorine and from their love bond springs crystals of exceeding beauty and of very salty attitude.
Covalent love city is the utopian communist metropolis. Her dwellers share their dots a bit too equitably for my capitalist taste. Of course, they do this Kumbaya type of sharing with their chosen loved ones while keeping others at bay lest if they wish to form a commune. Their dots tend to comingle and co-tangle as if they are all players in a tiny game of twister. The love amongst these commies is mutual, the bond is strong, and for every Co, you can bet your life, there is a Valent partner or more in this red Bolshevik of all love cities. Dihydrogen monoxide is the Kremlin family.
Metallic is the grooviest and the hippiest of them all. The patriots of this hardy city decreed long time ago that everyone's dots are the property of everyone else around them! Talk about Uber communism with a dash of hippy laissez faire! Heaven help us, the sixties are back in full swing, literally! There's no monogamous love or polygamous love, rather it is an all for all touchy-feely kind of love. The dots are everywhere and the hearts within the sea of emptiness grab their fill of dots up and down and right and left to quench their insatiable appetite for love and sensual longing.
I, for one, am an old fashioned fellow; I'd go for Ionic city's code of conduct and choose it as my favorite city overall. This is bourn by the fact that I have no interest in too much sharing of partners nor of their parts. This covalent business and this metallic way of love-life sicken me and may even induce polar feelings within me at times. But since I am a person who loves to love, I have great admiration for these three cities that built their very existence around the notion of celebrating bonds of love. One never can get enough of a lot of love and friendship going around the world, especially in these sad days of bickering, hatred, and establishing too many othernesses.
The Nuclear Play
Acrostic Poem by Mr. Le Nadj
Radical in all its craziest of senses,
Atoms shattered, and hopes
Dashed, and strangely
It is as describable as
One can easily
Add two and two to get 3.9!
Crazy, isn't it? Why not four? You might ask.
Too many neutrons, mon ami, induce
Instability that shakes the
Very foundation of many a nucleus.
It sheds protons, neutrons, and yes, even electrons!
Talk about awesome energies held at bay!
You and I, my friend, are but actors in this radical nuclear play.
Alpha, Beta, Gamma Rays
Poem by Mr. Le Nadj
Alpha is lame.
Beta is a serious game.
Gamma is the radiation queen, The Dame!
If we unleash these radioactivity dogs, we have only ourselves to blame!
Fission & Fusion Inspired Aphorisms
by Mr. Le Nadj
If fission is the anticupid of matter, fusion has to be its cupid.
Love and fuse hearts so that you'd never have to fuse fissured family parts.
Being a physics instructor, writing creative writing pieces that deal with chemistry was a bit of a challenge but I hope I gave chemistry its fair share of accurate attention.
Thank you for reading this post and I hope it would inspire you and your students to seek out pathways that fuse the sciences and the arts through STEAM projects. Any comments, questions, or suggestions are very welcomed in the comments section of this blog.

As one of the most intelligent animals on the planet, elephants display the natural world's greatest leadership qualities. Using a leadership model that has delivered survival for over 50 million years, their leaders (or matriarchs), use the same set of core skills required by safe leaders in the human world.
In Giants of leadership – The nature of safety, these essential subjects are clearly explained using the latest, breath-taking BBC Wildlife footage of elephants in their natural habitat.
Shot on location in Kenya, Giants of Leadership is an exciting, never-before-seen leadership training package that demands the attention of any viewer, using one of the natural world's most awe-inspiring creatures.

Advertisement for Austin's Estate Agents, Orpington, Bromley, c. 1910
The early 20th century saw development in Orpington begin in earnest. Francis Austin was a surveyor who, by 1910, had begun to build houses on the east side of the main railway line.
Beginning with Hill View, adjacent to his offices he spread north beginning the huge Knoll development, Perry Hall, Scads Hill and Carnwell Wood, the latter now considered part of the later Petts Wood developments.
Little is known of Austin and it seems likely that the first World War prevented him fulfilling his aims as presented on this map.
After the war Aubrey Mullock, who had established an estate agency in the High Street became the main force behind Orpington's development. The exact location of this board is unknown but a site close to the station and Austin's estate office seems likely.

To all my fellow Canadians, if you haven't heard yet, Pixi by Petra is now available at Shoppers Drug Mart! Yes, finally we can get our Pixi glow on anytime we want ! I've been a huge fan of Pixi ever since I tried the cult favourite " Glow Tonic". It's on repeat in my skin care regimen and I'm loving the results! I wanted to introduce to you my current favourite skin care products from Pixi that I've been using lately and loving.
The "Beauty Sleep Cream" is a night treatment and should be used every night after cleansing. It seeps into the skin fairly quickly and has a very light minty scent. If I could bathe in this stuff I would! It feels creamy and luxurious on the skin and in the morning my skin looks very refreshed and healthy.
Next up is the "24K Eye Elixir" made of gold, peptides and callogen. You should use the Elixir day and night, but I've been using it mostly during the daytime. The Elixir is loaded with peptides that help plump up fine lines ; collagen that tightens the skin around the eye area as well as reduce puffiness and help rid you of those awful dark circles that many of us,unfortunately, have. Personally for me, I benefit more from the Elixir if I use it in the morning. It de-puffs, brightens and cools the under eye area. For an extra cooling effect, you can stick the "24K Elixir"in the fridge for a few minutes and apply to the under eye area right away. Ahh that's a nice cooling sensation!
The "Glowtion Day Dew" is a day brightening lotion. This lotion also has a light minty fragrance and is best used every day to combat dull skin. 2 small pumps is enough to cover a full face and the lotion absorbs quickly into the skin. I wish the lotion came in a bigger tube as it's only a 35 ml and I went through it fairly quickly.I believe I'm on my 3rd tube now and this has become my go-to day lotion. As well, I hope Pixi decides to add SPF to this product as I'm a big advocate for daily SPF use, and I would rather get my SPF + moisturizer dose all in one pump! Yes, I'm that lazy!
The last product is both a skin care and makeup product. The "Glow Mist" is a versatile product that has replaced a few of my professional makeup sprays. It can be used to set your makeup, add hydration to your bare face and refresh makeup. It absorbs into the skin very quickly ( which I love) and adds a dewy finish to the look. If you are not a dewy makeup kind'a gal , then do not use this product to set your makeup because you will be dewy and luminous all night long 🙂
Stay tuned for my Pixi by Petra makeup review on the blog soon! In the meantime here is the link to a Valentines Day post I did using Pixi makeup products!
Have you tried any Pixi By Petra products ? Leave a comment below and let me know what your favourite Pixi products are!
DISCLAMER: Pixi By Petra sent me the products as a PR package, but I was in no way required to provide a positive review. All opinions and thoughts expressed are my own.

If anything, I'm surprised retail clinics have done as well as they have (which may not be that well). Once you get past the feel-good part about "health care when and where I need it", the list of meaningful services offered is remarkably shallow. Outside of the once-yearly flu shot and perhaps a tetanus booster, there's very little left. With fewer exceptions than most people realize:
– most infections for which care is sought are viral (this includes the majority of earaches, sinus infctions, coughs, and sore throats) and thus don't need antibiotics
– most facilities don't prescribe pain medications stronger than over-the-counter medications already available 2 aisles over
– "procedures" (stitches, x-rays/splinting, etc.) aren't usually done in retail settings
– most facilities tend to avoid chronic-care type issues (medication management) that don't require any of the above
Don't get me wrong – visit a retail clinic and you'll most likely end up with a prescription whether it's indicated or not. Remember, such locations are usually adjacent to the pharmacy. In fact, I'm intimately aware of one company whose retail lease was free due to the realization that Rx volume was known to increase X percent in the presence of a clinic. Perhaps such clinics will evolve into more full-service centers, maybe with physicians and diagnostics akin to full veterinary facilities inside PetSmart. However, as they stand, there's lots of sizzle but not too much meat.

We've all heard the expression "April showers bring May flowers." Often, there's hidden truth to common sayings like these. Right now, it may seem like we are stuck in an "April shower," a time of disappointment or confusion, while we patiently wait for "May flowers" to bloom and produce a sense of hope and refreshment.
Picture this: a hot summer day, beads of sweat on your forehead, with a beautiful view of Table Rock Lake before you. There's a rope swing in your hands, and with one jump you can launch yourself into a refreshing lake of water. Would it make sense to jump but continue holding onto the rope? Of course not! That would send you sailing right back into the shoreline.
We know that a rope swing can propel us into the water if we let go at the right time, but it can be harder to know when to let go of our desire to please others. There can be value in the opinions of others, but similar to a rope swing, there is a right time to let go. Our friends and superiors keep us accountable, remind us of truths about ourselves when we forget, and challenge us to look more like Jesus. However, at a certain point, we will get dragged down by constantly looking to their approval or guidance if we cling to it.
There's a feeling of freedom when we let go of a rope swing and dive into refreshing water. This is much like our relationship with Jesus. When we let go of a deep need to please others, we launch into a refreshing freedom of living for One.
"For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ."
Galatians 1:10
Paul reminds the Galatians in this letter that we live and serve Christ alone. At Kamp, we like to refer to this as an "I'm Third" mindset: Christ First, Others Second, and I'm Third. Because Christ comes first, his opinion of us should be taken into the greatest consideration. By trying to please our peers or superiors, we abandon the freedom of a relationship with God that lives only for Him. Life with Jesus means grace, peace, joy, and purpose. When we serve Him only, we are free of being hindered by the opinions of others, knowing that others cannot save us and fill us like He can!
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."
Galatians 2:20-21
Do you find yourself constantly striving for the approval of your parents, your boss, or your followers on social media? The danger of dependence on others' opinions is that these opinions make a shaky foundation that can change with the wind. This passage from Galatians emphasizes that Christ's death was for our freedom, and when we continue to cling to the approval of others we portray that we are better without His sacrificial gift. He gives abundant purpose, grace, and love to us, and we get to experience this fully by living for Christ alone!
So, let's stack hands and agree to start letting go of our grip on the approval of others so that we can soar into the freedom that is found in living for One. This may not always be easy, but we can be confident that God will help us every day as we draw near to Him!

Are you a girl and 18 years old or less? Then we are celebrating today!
Today, October 11th, is the international day of the girl child.
In 2012, United Nations (an organisation that brings countries together for peace and progress) started this day so we can talk about girls around the world.
There are 1.1 billion girls in the world, that is a big number!
All of us should be able to go to good schools, live long and fulfill our dreams.
We should also be able to marry and have children when we are ready for that part of life.
Today, many groups are talking about how to make sure girls get these rights especially those of us in places where there is war and other troubles.
Let us help by talking to our friends and family about how to make the lives of girls better in our communities.
Also let's be happy today, take pictures and say why we are proud to be girls.
Happy Day of the Girl Child!
Want to read more inspiring stories like this one? Then head to our Springster Facebook page and connect with a community of girls just like you! - https://www.facebook.com/heyspringster


text: I just happened to be in the city at 9.30pm on Australia Day. We wanted to go up to the observation deck in Eureka Tower – 88 storeys aboveground. We didn't know what time the fireworks were due to start and we didn't want to wait so we went back down to the ground. We walked along the riverfront and that's when we heard loud explosions. It was the first time I'd been in the city for fireworks. Some of them were let off from the top of the Eureka Tower where we had just been. Then suddenly more started going off near the Alexandra Gardens so I ran up the stairs to St Kilda Rd and got some great photos.

Listening, learning and observing are key skills for anyone starting out in a career in marketing, according to industry experts at our Marketing Professionals Panel and Q&A Event.
Vince Warnock, Chief Marketing Officer at Cigna New Zealand, Nine Ive, Manager Strategic Engagement at the Tertiary Education Commission, Regan Savage, Acting Chief Customer Officer and Marketing Director at TradeMe, and Mel Borich, Senior Digital Manager at WREDA came together in the awesome new PWC space overlooking the Wellington waterfront to share their tips and tricks for our Summer of Biz students. They spoke about their varied career paths—proving you don't always have to take the traditional route to be successful—and shared what advice they would give their past selves.
One key piece of advice they had for aspiring marketing professionals was to try and get some sales experience early in your career, as there's a really strong link between sales and marketing. This helps with being able to read people and understand their motivations, which ultimately helps determine your value proposition.
"Later in your career you might become the head of sales and marketing, so it's good to have some experience in this area," Nina Ive said.
However, sales experience isn't necessarily the be all and end all, our experts said: your attitude and willingness to learn will take you a long way. Mel Borich made it work by saying yes to everything (and then spending the next 6 hours on Google teaching herself how to do it!). One of her career highlights was working on the Bear Grylls Air New Zealand in-flight safety video, the first in-flight safety video to not be filmed on a plane.
Everyone said that the day-to-day variety in their work is one of their favourite parts of working in marketing, as well as seeing the tangible outcomes of their work. Although learning how to juggle priorities (and their diaries) is something they are still working on!
In terms of technology, they acknowledged there can be pressure to feel like you need to stay up to date with the latest trends. Instead of worrying too much about this, the panellists suggest to look for diversity in where you source your inspiration and to surround yourself with people who challenge your thinking and ideas.
"Fundamentally it's people and human behaviour that marketers need to be aware of—and you can get as much of that from Dickens as you can from Mashable," said Regan Savage.
"Once you can identify the needs of your customers, then technology should follow the needs," said Vince Warnock.
In terms of advice for newcomers to the marketing industry, Mel says to make sure you understand what the organisation does, what their goals are, and what they're trying to achieve. Nina also recommends to be humble and don't assume you know everything, but harness your fresh perspective to listen and learn from everything that's going on around you.
If you're looking for practical ways to listen and learn the panel suggest you grab a mentor, find some podcasts and head along to meetups and events like Summer of Biz bootcamps to engage in the industry.
Thank you very much to Vince, Mel, Regan and Nina for taking the time to share their thoughts with us all. Also a special thank you to PWC for hosting us and Alyson Garrido for chairing the panel.
If you're interested in signing up for events like this, just login to your Summer of Biz profile and register yourself for the event. If you're new to Summer of Biz you can sign up here (it's free!). You'll be asked to make a profile and then you'll be able to register for any of our events throughout the year and see all our internship listings too.
