Name matters
Written 20 years back by Al Ries
The lure of the generic is so powerful that some companies have paid enormous sums for names that in the long run will turn out to be useless. A Los Angeles company bought Business.com for $7.5 million. Some other recent purchases: Wine.com was bought for $3 million. Telephone.com was bought for $1.75 million. Bingo.com was bought for $1.1 million. Wallstreet.com was bought for $1.03 million. Drugs.com was bought for $823,456. University.com was bought for $530,000. It's worse than tulip mania in Holland or truffle madness in France. The latest bid on the Loans.com name was $3 million. (If you own a common Internet name, our advice is to sell it before the mania melts away.) Even at this early stage, the power of a proper name as opposed to a common name for an Internet brand has been clearly demonstrated. The big early winners (AOL, Amazon.com, eBay, Priceline.com, Yahoo!) have all been proper names rather than common names. There's a lot of confusion on this issue. People see a name like Priceline and assume it's a common or generic name, but it's not. The generic name for the category is "tickets" or really "name-your-own-price airline tickets." Tickets.com is a common name used for a Website that, in our opinion, is not going to take off. ("Price" and "line" are common words, of course, but they are used out of context and in combination to create the proper name "Priceline," which becomes an effective Internet brand name.) Every common name can also be a proper name if used to identify a single person, place, or thing. Bird is a common name, but it's also a proper name, as in Larry Bird or Tweety Bird. When you are choosing a brand name for your Website, the first thing to ask yourself is, what's the generic name for the category? Then that's the one name you don't want to use for your site. Invariably a singular proper name will turn out to be a better name for your site than a generic. iVillage.com, for example, is a better name for a Website devoted to women than Women.com. (Yes, there is a Website called Women.com, and it spent millions to promote its name before selling out to a rival.
Ashton.com is a better name for a Website that sells luxury goods than Cyberluxury.com, eLuxury.com, or Firstjewelry.com. In the physical world, the same branding principles apply. The proper name is superior to the common or generic name. McDonald's is a better name than Burger King. Hertz is a better name than National Car Rental. (All the car rental names you see in an airline terminal are national car rental companies, but there's only one Hertz.) Time is a better name than Newsweek or U.S. News & World Report. Kraft is a better name than General Foods, so when Kraft General Foods decided to simplify their name, they called the company Kraft and not General Foods. There are degrees of commonness, of course. "Burger King" is not a totally common name. The Hamburger Place would be a totally common name for a fast-food establishment that features burgers. There are degrees of properness, too. McDonald's and Hertz are more "proper" than Time magazine. Time is a common name used out of context to create a proper name. In the same way, Amazon and Yahoo! are more "proper" than Priceline and eBay, which are common words used out of context. (All distinctions are relative, of course. Even Amazon and Yahoo! can be common words. A yahoo is a brutish creature and an amazon is a tall, vigorous, strong-willed woman.) So how "proper" should your Website name be? It all depends. First, and most important of all, you want your Website name to be perceived as a proper name. Then hopefully you want your name to be more "proper" than your competitors'. But you also want to consider other factors.
You create a proper name that's also short and easy to spell. CNET.com, for example, took the generic term "computer network" and shortened it to CNET, creating a short, proper name that's also easy to spell.
Nabisco needed a brand name for its vanilla wafers, so it called them Nilla. And the powerful brand name Jell-O is just a shortened version of gelatin dessert. Nabisco itself is a brand name constructed by condensing its former generic name, National Biscuit Company. (There are many national biscuit companies, but only one Nabisco.)
Barnesandnoble.com finally threw in the towel on their long, difficult-to-spell name and shortened it to bn.com. Morgan Stanley Dean Witter is an enormously successful financial company, but Morganstanleydeanwitter.com is not going to make it on the Internet. The company shortened the name to msdw.com. (The names bn.com and msdw.com are not good either, because they are hard to remember.)
One way to have your cake and eat it too is by using both a name and a nickname on the Web. Charles Schwab is the leading discount brokerage firm, but on the Web the company uses both CharlesSchwab.com and Schwab.com, although it promotes only Schwab.com.
People feel closer to a brand when they are able to use the brand's nickname instead of its full name.
Beemer, not BMW
Chevy, not Chevrolet
Coke, not Coca-Cola
Bud, not Budweiser
FedEx, not Federal Express
Mac, not Macintosh
But how unique is More.com, a site that spent $20 million to tell you they sell health, beauty, and wellness products? Or MyWay.com or CheckOut.com or Individual.com or Owners.com or YouDecide.com or Indulge.com or This.com or Respond.com? Or any of a hundred different sites being backed by millions of dollars' worth of venture capital and promoted with millions of dollars' worth of advertising? A Waltham, Massachusetts, company spent $20 million in television and radio advertisements to launch a gift-buying service called Send.com. How is anyone going to remember the name? Let's say you wanted to buy a present for your friend Charlie for Christmas. Do you go to Buy.com, Present.com, Gift.com, or what? By definition a common or generic name is not unique. It does not refer to a specific person, place, or thing like a proper name does. Therefore, a common name used as a Website name for the generic category is not memorable.
The mind works with the sounds of words, not with the visuals and their shapes. When you grow up, you learn not to move your lips when you're reading. But this doesn't change the way your mind works. It still works with the sounds of words. If you want people to remember something, rhyme it for them. "If the glove don't fit, you must acquit." Fogdog.com is an improvement over the brand's original name, which was Sportsite.com. Alliteration is another sure-fire way to improve your brand's memorability. Many real-world brand names are alliterative. Some examples: Bed, Bath & Beyond, Blockbuster, Big Bertha, Coca-Cola, Weight Watchers.
The same principle applies with babies. Give your newborn kid a head start. Pick a first name that's alliterative with your last name. It's a fact that many famous celebrities have alliterative names: Alan Alda, Ronald Reagan, Robert Redford, Tina Turner, Marilyn Monroe, Charlie Chaplin, Sharon Stone, Greta Garbo, Doris Day, Sylvester Stallone, Susan Sarandon, Ted Turner, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck.

text: w8kbrder 3 Posted April 30, 2015 So has anyone here had issues with getting it converted back to fighter mode. I can literally get everything back where it goes...except one thing....both knees slightly overlap. This causes one leg to sit higher than the other so the feet are not even in the back. What the heck am I doing wrong! I have disassembled, reassembled, disassembled again. I've watched Scorched Earth's video but for the love of me cannot figure out how he is managing to get a bit of space between the knees when they are folded up into fighter mode. It looks as if the shoulder armor is pushing the legs inward too far once you try locking the back plate down. Leg joints are folded up like they are suppose to. Shoulder armor is folded out into the small recess on the arm joint swing arm. So frustrating! I've spent 2 hours on this and I'm at a loss. Its like there is not enough room between the shoulder armor and the thigh section of the legs. The shoulders end up pushing on the legs causing them to bow inward leaving no room between the knees. Help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's only week 2, and I feel like I'm already swamped with a whole lot to do. With an entire subject that is almost as good as working on a professional proposal, coupled with the need to actually go out and contact/meet stakeholders, conduct (professional) surveys and what not.. It seems like I'm actually looking at weeks of sleepless nights, countless research and report writing. Hopefully I can pull through this sem just fine. So stressed out by this project, and honestly, projects have never been my forte, but this one here is just downright scary. Probably one of, if not the toughest project I've even had to take on in all my years of education, and I just pray that we can do well for this..
POL seems to be almost as bad, because of the topic issue. Considering that 3 assignment are interrelated, it really shows how wise one must be when deciding on the topic to broach. Choosing one wrong topic would literally mean the death of your grades, and that's just BAD.
Really praying to all the gods out there, to see me through this sem well. I don't even ask for fantastic grades.. It really isn't necessary. I just don't wanna fail anything at all.

Considering our most impressive New Zealand ratites, the Moa, have been consumed to extinction, and the Kiwi will be lucky to last another 20 years, 'humorous posts' relating to eating ratites don't really cause such a belly laugh in this part of the world. I have to say that, although I'd slightly different language than the other poster, I have to agree with the sentiment. Is the discussion of extinction not one of the main topics of this group? Should one dismiss as 'misanthropy' comments relating to the extinction of large numbers of extant dinosaurs? I suggest not. Incidentally, I might also point out that Ostrich farming - almost certainly the bird in question - as promoted outside of South Africa is essentially a pyramid scam. Some of the meat is indeed very tasty, however, it is not cost effective in the absence of a supporting commercial infrastructure utilising the rest of the animal. --- Derek Tearne. --- @URL Internet Consultants --- http://url.co.nz Some of the more environmentally aware dinosaurs were worried about the consequences of an accident with the new Iridium enriched fusion reactor.

I was still 21 when the attacks occurred but my birthday was coming up on September 26th. I feel like I was one of the last people in the U.S. to find out. I was asleep in bed at noon (3:00 EST) when my mom called me on her separate phone line from downstairs. She said to get up already and proceeded to tell me the news. As she always did so I wasn't paying much attention until she said that the WTC had been destroyed. I said what do you mean destroyed, it's still there isn't it. She said no it's completely gone and the Pentagon has been attacked. I had only one thought right then, I said to her "The Taliban. Mom, it was the Taliban." I hadn't turned on a TV, radio, nothing. I've known about them and how they've made people suffer for years, but it was the first I'd heard of Osama Bin Laden. That day, as I watched grown men cry, I worried about all my friends in Connecticut, which we had moved away from 2 months earlier. I knew early on we'd go to war, which was actually a big relief because I knew someday someone would have to remove the Taliban.

We live in Reno, NV. My husband was doing his usual routine with our dogs in the morning. I was in the shower when I heard a message form my co-worker to turn on the TV now. That we were under attack... I jumped out of the shower, towled off and ran downstaris to the TV where I saw my husbands face in disbelief...then I heard Katie Couric form the "Today Show" say: "If you are just tuneing in two planes have hit the WTC's" and another has hit the Pentagon... it was crazy. I thought it was something old, I didn't really know that much about the towers. Then my husband tells me this is live, and then the 2 tower collapsed... I was in total disbelief. I just started crying...I called my mother she was hysterical...all she kept saying was how did this happen how??? I could not answer her. I didn't know.
I remeber my drive to work was so erie...everybody had a weird look on their face...at work everyone was shocked and they sent us home to be with our familes...so all I did was watch the news and over and over watching the planes hit the towers...it was unbeliavable.
Today, I feel it's only a matter of time before I will wake up to anotehr terrible attack on the US. I do not fear, I know God is watching over this great country and we will only get stronger and persevere even more. God Bless America, and may the dead always be remembered and thought of as heros. Because they are and will never be forgotten.I am blessed by the Lord above to be alive and I am thankful to the Lord for allowing me to live through such a tremendous time in the World's history. God Bless America and the World. ~Carin Acuna

I was asleep when the attack started since it was around 5:45 am from where I live. Coming from Las Vegas, NV, USA, I lived in Pacific Standard time zone that is three hours away from New York, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania. I did not know about the attack until I came to history class that morning. It was around 7:45 am when my history professor notified the class of the attack, and had us listen to the radio. I was in a state of shock and wondered what happened, or if it was real. I thought it was another WTC attack like we heard about in 1993 and when Timothy McVeigh bombed Federal building in April 1995, but it was more serious than that. My professor told us that this was more serious attack than ones in the 1990s and the nation started to change before the class that morning. She learned about the attack during her meeting earlier in the day. I did not know how serious the attack was until I saw the news on TV after the class.
When I came to work, my supervisor and coworkers told me about the attack, and said it was serious. Have I not been in class that day, they would have been the ones who told me instead of my professor? My supervisor learned about the attack when one of his relatives from Pennsylvania called him earlier in the morning, about 6:30 in PST and 9:30 in EST (Time zone of NYC, Washington DC and Pennsylvania). He had the radio one because people he knew were in middle of the attack and he felt empty. Luckily, his family members, relatives, and friends were left unharmed. The situations after the attack upset him since many laid-off workers in Las Vegas area applied for jobs through his company. I work for a restaurant that does not depend on tourism like many businesses in Las Vegas did.
The situations in Las Vegas became tense because most of our businesses and industries depended on the use of airline industry, and Las Vegas is a city of entertainment, casino, gaming, and tourism industries. All of these industries depended on airline industry to bring in more customers and businesses. Recently, many laid-off workers are running out of luck of finding new jobs to replace the ones that they lost, and there unemployment insurance is running out. I read a newspaper article today that two laid-off workers are living in fears and uncertainties since they did not have luck with finding job, and they are facing with the loss of unemployment insurance, unless if federal government would extend their benefits another 13 weeks. One worker stated that she worked for that same company for 20 years, but it did not save her from getting laid-off.
There had been complaints that older or minority workers had been laid-off in larger number than younger or European-American workers. I never work near the Strip, so I do not know what it is like working down there. My friend in other state lost his job although he gave his loyal services to same company for many years, and he did not tell me about it until a month ago. He was too ashamed to tell me this and did not respond to my Christmas cards and newsletter. His family is stressed out these days because he had harder time finding new job to replace the ones he lost. My coworkers felt the impact of lay-offs and the fears and frustration people had since the attack.
We also blamed Osama bin Laden and his cronies for making our lives harder. I felt angry when I read religious comments that God wanted it to happen to teach us some lessons, or that he wanted us to get down on our knees and ask him what he wanted us to do. Many people complained about religious messages. I am a member of an online group where somebody complained about the religious message I sent one time, because he felt tired of his coworkers pushing religion in his throat for years. When we learned from reading newspaper and watching news on TV that whatever Osama bin Laden and other terrorists did was not for God, we felt relieved. We also felt relieved that Muslim people and people of other religion did not condone whatever these terrorists did on September 11, 2001 and anytime before or after the attack.
I learned to take one day at a time and keep on doing whatever I wanted to do in my life. I also learned that we could not rush in our life achievement, and we could take one day at a time and be proud of our smaller accomplishments rather than waiting for us to finish our bigger accomplishments or waiting for something more significant to come to us. I noticed that other people learned similar lessons. With the support of their families and friends, they adjusted well than expected or thought they would.
I met several people who lost their family members or relatives at WTC. One young man came to bus in tears one night because he learned that one of his cousins had been missing in WTC, and he had not call anyone for more than a week. His relatives were worried and panicked for more than a week, and the rescue workers still looked for people who might be stuck in the wreckage. Unfortunately, the last survivor found in wreckage was found on a Wednesday after the attack (about two days after the attack), and his cousin had been missing for more than a week. I listened to him for more than an hour. He rode bus to visit one of his friends because they wanted to cheer him up and comfort him. I saw him again about two months later, and he was doing fine.
My older friends have relatives and friends in East Coast. They were worried about losing their loved ones at first. When it turned out that everyone they knew were all right, they felt relieved and visited their relatives in Boston for Thanksgiving. My supervisor came to Pittsburgh on October to watch football game and to visit his old friends and relatives. He said that people were fine as usual, bus some people felt more stressed out about the Anthrax attack and that many New Yorkers are out-of-work since the attack. Some businesses took weeks to recover while other lost their businesses altogether due to the attack.
The last six months had been stressful for me. Other people in Las Vegas felt stressed out too. We lived our lives as unusual unless there were big interruptions like being laid-off from our jobs. Job market is not good these days, so I could not find second job with confidence like I could last year. My coworkers tried to get jobs at the new Wal Mart store opening up in few weeks, and they never heard from their personnel office for job interviews. We noticed that many companies tried to give higher priority to laid-off workers before they hire somebody who still have job. I gave up on seeking second job since October, because I noticed that many hiring manager felt stressed out about giving me a second job if laid-off workers had been more desperate for jobs for weeks.
I hope the next six months will be better since we learned our lessons and had chances to recover from our losses. I hope the less six months, more laid-off workers will have jobs, and the economy will get better. I also hope our countries as well as other countries will get more of positive results from our recent war against terrorism.

I live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I'm in seventh grade. I woke up at about 6:30 and as usual, stumbled around, plugging in my curling iron and getting dressed. I turned the radio on and heard the announcer saying, "A plane flew into the World Trade Center!" I thought to myself, Yeah, right, and I figured it was a joke. I went downstairs and told my mom to turn on the TV to make sure it was a joke. But it wasn't - it was horribly real. I watched, shellshocked, as the second plane flew into the towers. At school, we watched the news all day and I heard someone say "Who cares?" I was disgusted. Later that day, I got a migraine headache and had to leave school. I felt better a few hours later and went onto a Harry Potter messageboard that I go on often. There were a ton of people talking about it - people from America, England, Canada, and hundreds of other countries. In the next few weeks, I was scared and angry. My best friend was scared too - her grandparents had flown from Boston to Las Vegas on September 10. I'm still scared, still angry, and things have changed.

I live in Massachusetts but at the time I was visiting a friend in Las Vegas. I recall that I was in the shower when I heard the phone ring. I jumped out of the tub and grabbed a towel, threw it around me and ran to the kitchen to scramble with the phone. My girlfriend, who was working at the time, called to tell me about two plane crashes that hit in New York killing many. The information was a bit sketchy since she had just heard about it herself and I was half awake. She suggested that I turn on a radio so I popped the power switch on the radio in the kitchen to tune into the disaster that had seemingly just occured. I don't recall the exact time but it was apparently long after (about an hour later) the actual impact time. I guess I was sleeping in bed at the actual time of impact, blissfully ignorant of the deaths of many people and of an incident that would rock the foundation of the world and the peace that we all have taken for granted. It was only a few minutes later before I felt compelled to see the details on TV. I turned on the tube to see the disasterous images which further confirmed my feelings that we were at war and that something had happened which was significant and profoundly wrong.

Race report by Bruno Coelho
My NT1 worked really good during all weekend managing the TQ and Win. In 1/8 everything was more than perfect. I started the final in 2nd place fighting with Simon for the 1st place and I overtook him in the first refuel with the faster refueling on the pit lane, after that I started slowly pulling away from him until he his engine stopped and I had a comfortable win until the end. I'm really surprised about my cars and how they are working so well. Can't wait for the next race to drive these great cars again.

Race report by Alessio Mazzeo
First big race, first big test. Very hard track layout and very difficult track conditions. We lost one test day to the rain. In qualy I was always fast but I have done a lot of mistakes because I didn't have much feeling for the track. In Q1 I closed 2nd behind Bruno; in Q2 I have flipped after 8 laps and I finished 10th. In warm up practice we have changed the set up a bit to find more stability. In the final I started with number 8.
We were really fast but after 3 laps in an overtake maneuver I have flipped and I was last. I have pushed for the whole final to recover the gap. I also had a flame out at the second tyre change. I have changed all 4 tires 2 times. But neverthless, we are arrived in second place behind Bruno. I'm realy happy for the result of the new car, and really happy for both Bruno'victory. The work of this winter is bringing its fruit.

Our Patients' Success Stories
We loved working with Dr. Gago and her team. Being two women, we needed help from the beginning! We were extremely lucky and got pregnant on our first round of IUI. On February 3, 2016, Rebecca had our two week over due, 10lb baby, Rhuland (Rhu). We are smitten and cant wait to try for the next one!
Gago Center for Fertility Gago IVF
My husband and I couldn't thank Dr Gago and staff enough. We tried for years to get pregnant on our own with no luck. We trusted the process (it was emotional!) And after a year we got our positive test. We couldn't imagine not having Charlotte in our lives. I will never forget the staff who played a part in helping us add her to our family. Don't wait if you are trying, you won't regret it.

After several years of trying to conceive we were referred to Dr. Gago. Believe me when I tell you that there is no better fertility doc in all the land. She's comforted and encouraged us after failed attempts, she's cried with us and shared in our excitement as a little heartbeat was finally heard. It's these things that truly make her the best at what she does. Struggles with infertility can take a toll, but when your doctor and her entire staff are in your corner rooting for you it can make a world of difference.

As more construction firms look to reduce their carbon footprint by sourcing alternative, low-carbon building materials, Europe's largest forest-based products company Stora Enso has stepped up investment in its very sustainable cross-laminated timber (CLT) products. Many companies view CLT solutions as the ideal replacement for carbon-intensive concrete and steel structures.
The CLT market has already grown threefold in the past two years and the company has announced a new €45m investment into a production line development that will make it the biggest supplier of CLT globally. The investment will boost Stora Enso's volume capacity, adding 100 km3 annually.
The investment looks set to transform the packaging firm into a renewable materials company and the largest global producer of a low environmental impact timber solution which can replace steel and concrete in construction projects.
CLT is produced from softwood timber and consists of sections that are laid across each other at right angles. This allows the panels to be designed to specific dimensions for items such as windows, doors, and plumbing, ventilation and wiring openings.
The main benefit of CLT is its lower embodied carbon footprint and quick construction time compared to traditional methods. Some projects can be completed six times faster than a standard build because of the panel construction process. The layered design process strengthens each panel or plank, making it a suitable substitute for steel or concrete. Stora Enso products are cost-effective and do not disrupt certified sourcing practices and a zero-waste ethos at its mills.
Figures suggest that around one-third of all landfill waste comes from the construction sites, either from construction or demolition of a building. CLT is an offsite solution and modular aspects of buildings can be constructed at CLT mills if specified. As recycling is easier to implement in a factory environment, the widescale use of CLT could improve landfill rates from the construction sector.
CLT is also much lighter than traditional building products, which allows for reduced slab and improves the embodied carbon of a project as a result. CLT panels are also better insulators, reducing heating and insulation costs.
Stora Enso has two production plants in Austria that support the production of the engineered wooden structural materials and the Nordic region is a strategic location for Stora Enso, as it provides easy delivery routes to the UK and Scandinavian nations – countries that are leading the charge in sustainable construction. It is one of the only European companies to offer both CLT and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) solutions for construction firms. It
The new €45m investment will introduce a new CLT production line in Sweden, at Stora Enso's Gruvön Mill. Production is scheduled for 2019 and will add extra capacity to the Gruvön saw mill, rather than replacing it. The new CLT production line will run alongside current operations at the saw mill, providing a cost-effective solution to increase supply to the market.
Stora Enso expects two-thirds of energy consumption at its mills to come from biomass derived from burning wood bark The company has a strict sourcing policy to ensure that all packaging products are made from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) or Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) certified timber from nearby forests.
Any sawdust generated onsite will also be used for wood pellet production, while bark from the timber is used in bioenergy production at a dedicated combined heat and power (CHP) system in Austria. Overall, Stora Enso expects two-thirds of energy consumption at its mills to come from biomass derived from burning wood bark.
Stora Enso has a pre-existing policy of replanting trees for each one harvested, and this will be continued as part of the CLT expansion. The number of plants per hectare varies according to tree species and place of growth, but there are always more trees planted than harvested. CLT is made of spruce and this regeneration process will require approximately 2,000 plants per hectare.
Users of CLT argue that the replanting of trees with saplings actually reverses the emissions from the harvesting process to create a negative CO2 balance.

When people talk about you, what do they say? That's a dangerous question, isn't it? When the people who know you best say something about you, what do they say?
I ask that question because this weekend we are given one of those rare gospel passages in which Jesus doesn't utter a single word about Himself or anyone else. We are completely dependent upon St. John the Baptist to speak to us about Jesus. And what he has to say is significant.
The Baptist spots Christ at the River Jordan, and immediately upon recognizing Him declares:
Behold, the Lamb of God,
who takes away the sin of the world.
—John 1:29
It sounds familiar enough to us, but what it meant for the people of Jesus' time was nothing short of remarkable. The lamb was central to the religious life of the people of Israel. When they were rescued from the land of Egypt, only those who had sprinkled their doorposts with the blood of the lamb, and had eaten the lamb as their Passover meal were saved. The sacrifice of the lamb would become a sign of their salvation, a perpetual remembrance of their freedom, and a sign of their new life from God.
Once they became established in the Promised Land and built the Temple in Jerusalem, every day—right up to the time of Christ—the priests would offer the sacrifice of a lamb in atonement for the sins of the people. Remember, John the Baptist's father was a priest of the temple. John would have understood all this.
When he cries out: "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world," he is announcing that the Messiah has arrived and the time has come for the salvation of all, for forgiveness, once and for all. It's a powerful statement: The time has come for them to be forgiven, and for all sin to be taken away!
But what kind of impact does such a statement have for us? What does it mean for us that Jesus has come to "take away the sins of the world"? In our culture, and in the world we live in, many say that there is a loss of the sense of sin. To even suggest that there is such a thing as "living in sin" or to consider that we ourselves might be in a "state of sin" at any given time is almost unheard of.
Pope John Paul the Great, in one of his earlier documents called Reconciliation and Penance, writes about this loss of the sense of sin. He talks about the weakening of the moral conscience—our ability to recognize within our hearts right from wrong—and says:
It happens not infrequently in history that the moral conscience of many people becomes seriously clouded . . . Too many signs indicate that such an eclipse exists in our time . . . It is inevitable therefore that in this situation there is an obscuring also of the sense of sin.
—Reconciliatio et Paenitentia, # 18
The Holy Father connects this loss of the sense of sin to several different factors in our contemporary culture, and you don't need to be an expert in theology or culture to recognize them.
The first one he mentions is what is commonly called secularism. John Paul II defines it as "a movement of ideas and behavior which advocates a humanism totally without God." We place all of our focus on this world only; all our eggs are in this one basket. We look to our own accomplishments, our own careers, and even good endeavors like work and family, yet totally without reference to God. That is secularism.
Quoting what he had said earlier in his first Encyclical Letter, Redemptor Hominis, John Paul II talks about how man can build a world without God; it is certainly possible. But that world, he says, will end by turning against him.
Isn't that what we see on a global scale, with nations destroying each other in the absence of any real search for the will of God? Don't we see this even on a more personal level, when we try to create our own little space or world without God in it? That world, in the end, will turn against us. Secularism, then, is the first factor which leads to a loss of the sense of sin.
The second factor that has caused a loss of the sense of sin in our culture is what could be termed "pop psychology." It is not really psychology at all, but a mistaken understanding of the human person which "leads to a refusal to admit any shortcoming." In other words, we simply explain our sin away and excuse ourselves as a product of our environment.
The problems in my life are because of my upbringing.
It is my parents' fault.
My boss is no good.
It's all because of my kids.
Everyone else is to blame for my situation; everyone but me.
To fall back on that kind of mentality is to loose all sense of responsibility for my own actions and to loose the sense and meaning of personal sin.
The third factor that John Paul II mentions is moral relativism. Relativism is to say that something certainly could not be a sin all the time. Times change, and people change. So what used to be a sin a long time ago, now that everyone is doing it, must no longer be a sin.
Perhaps an example would be helpful. It used to be a serious sin, years ago, to miss Mass on Sunday. But now we all know lots of people who miss Mass all the time. Therefore, it must not be a sin anymore…right? Wrong! Not going to Mass on Sunday is a grave sin. It was years ago, and it still is today. In fact, 20 years from now, to miss Mass will still be a grave sin, because we are called to come here to worship God.
God calls us together each week to be strengthened in our faith and in the Sacraments of the Church, and to live differently than the rest of the world around us. We are created to worship God, and to give Him the praise that is due. Failure or refusal to do that, as we are guided by the teachings of the Church handed down to us by Christ, without any legitimate excuse, is sin. Defining it as anything else, and pointing to our culture and a changing social climate as the answer, is relativism.
Finally, John Paul II points to a practical atheism as a source of the loss of the meaning or sense of sin so prevalent in our times. Few of us would ever say, "God does not exist." But we live our lives sometimes as if He did not exist. That is practical atheism.
We live as if we will never stand before God in judgment.
We live as if we will never answer to God for the sins that we have committed.
We live as if it were not at all possible that God could deny us access to the Kingdom of Heaven because of the actions, choices, or decisions we have made here on this earth.
To live in that way is practical atheism, and it causes a loss of the sense of sin.
But why are these things so serious? Why bother spending the time trying to understand them? Because when we lose the sense of sin in our lives, we also lose the mercy and forgiveness of God right along with it.
God says to us, whenever we have sinned: "I want to forgive you; I want you to know my mercy and to know my love. I sent my Son to suffer and die on the cross so that you could be forgiven. I want you back."
To deny the sense of sin in our lives is essentially to say, "God, no thank you. I don't want your forgiveness. I don't need your mercy. I'm fine just the way I am!"
The late Archbishop Fulton Sheen would often say that sin is not the worst thing in the world. The worst thing in the world is the denial of sin. He once received a phone call from a woman whose brother was dying in the hospital. She described her brother not simply as a bad man, but as an evil man. He was a very rough character. Over 20 priests had been in to see him on his deathbed, and he had thrown them all out! As a last resort, his sister asked Fulton Sheen for help.
Realizing that he would fare no better than the other priests, Sheen stayed only 15 seconds on his first visit, and said nothing. The next day he came back and stayed for 20 seconds. Again he said nothing. After 40 days he was finally staying for up to 15 minutes a visit, and it was then that he finally broke the silence:
"William," he said, "you are going to die tonight."
"I know," was the man's reply.
"I am sure you want to make your peace with God," Sheen said to him.
"No, I do not. Get out."
Realizing that he wasn't going to get through, Fulton Sheen agreed to leave, but before he did he went over to the man and said to him,
"Just one thing. Promise me that before you die tonight, you will say, 'Jesus, have mercy'."
He said, "I will not. Now get out."
Later that night, one of the nurses called Fulton Sheen to tell him that the man had died, and she said that he had died well.
"Why would you say that," he asked.
She said, "Because from the moment you left the room, he began to say, 'Jesus, have mercy,' and didn't stop until the moment he died."
We can deny the sin in our lives only so much, but eventually, we must bring it before God. Now, or later, we must acknowledge that we are in need of the forgiveness of God, and when we can do that, then we will be able to recognize fully that God is so filled with mercy, so ready to embrace us, so overwhelmingly in love with us.
And the ones who are able to recognize that are the ones most qualified and capable of proclaiming it to the world we live in, a world that desperately needs to hear the message about God's mercy.
Who will be the one to tell them? Will you be the one in your world this week to tell others that God is merciful? Will you be the one to stand up with St. John the Baptist and point to Jesus Christ, saying, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world"?

After averaging over 75 points in its last three games, it figured to be a cold day in hell before William and Mary (6-14, 2-7 CAA) would make only three three-pointers in a game.
As it turned out, it only took a cold night in Boston.
The Tribe made a mere three three-pointers, all in the second half, en route to a 70-67 defeat at Northeastern Monday. It was the third time this season the College has failed to make more than three baskets from beyond the arc.
"We were 0-for-10 [from the three-point line] in the first hal,f which I thought was the real key to the ballgame," Head Coach Tony Shaver said. "We were just not making shots early, and they made shots."
Junior forward Quinn McDowell led the College with 22 points. Freshman guard Brandon Britt scored 13 points in the defeat.
After allowing the Huskies to extend a 13-point halftime lead to 18 points, the Tribe was able to fight back and cut Northeastern's lead to nine with 5 minutes, 32 seconds remaining on a layup by freshman forward Tim Rusthoven.
The teams then traded baskets before a three-pointer from Northeastern guard Chaisson Allen bumped the Huskies's lead back to 10.
It would stay there until a McDowell three-pointer and a pair of free throws from senior center Marcus Kitts made the score 65-59, Northeastern. Allen made one-of-two free throws before McDowell hit both ends of a one-and-one to make it a two possession game.
A Rusthoven layup would make the score 67-63 with 16 seconds remaining, but the College could not get the three-point basket it needed to pull ahead.
"We just can't play 20 to 30 minutes of basketball, especially on the road," Shaver said. "I thought we started with very little energy tonight ,which surprised me."
McDowell kept the Tribe in the game as best as he could in the first half, as the junior scored 11 of his 22 total points in the first period. But the College did not have an answer for Northeastern guard Joel Smith, who scored 14 first-half points to help the Huskies reach halftime with a 38-25 lead.
Coming off Saturday's game in which the Tribe limited Hofstra to only 67 points, Shaver said he was disappointed in his team's defensive effort to begin the game.
"I go back to the lack of energy early in the ballgame," Shaver said. "That is something we can control — and we can have every night wherever we are playing — and we didn't have it tonight."
A driving McDowell layup made the score 6-4 with 16:17 remaining in the half, but the Huskies scored five quick points, forcing Shaver to call a 30-second timeout. McDowell would score off a pass from Brandon Britt to cut Northeastern's lead to 22-13 with 9:53 remaining in the half, but the College would get no closer in the half.
Making matters worse, the Tribe went 0-for-10 from the three-point line in the first half while allowing Northeastern to make five three-pointers of its own. Usually a good three-point shooting team — the College entered Monday's contest shooting 35 percent from beyond the arc this season — Shaver's club could not buy a three-point basket in Northeastern's cold gym to start the ballgame.
The head coach will have to hope his squad finds its stroke from deep as it returns home to take on Delaware this Wednesday.
"It is a game we should we win — we really believe that," Shaver said. "They're having a magical year … but we're looking forward to playing them."

We all know that eating breakfast is good for us. It prevents overeating later on, it gives us energy and it's just one of those healthy habits that your mom passed down. But for many of us, breakfast isn't a daily thing. We have trouble sleeping due to work stress and would rather sleep an extra half an hour in the morning and grab a coffee on our way out the door than prepare an actual morning meal. Making breakfast just seems like so much effort, and we've already got enough on our plates. We're busy. Sound familiar?
See Also: Best Workplace Snacks
Here's an idea: start eating breakfast at your desk. Read on to find out why this is the best thing you can do for yourself and your career.
You will actually eat breakfast
This is a pretty good reason to chow down at your computer, right? If you plan to eat this meal when you get to the office every single day of the week, Monday to Friday, there's no more wondering how you're going to possibly find the time to cook. Say goodbye to rumbling stomachs that interrupt mid-morning meetings or the feeling that you need 10 coffees to get through the entire work day. You will be more energetic, be full, and be able to stick to that healthy diet that you try so hard to maintain. It's a simple fact: if you're not in the breakfast habit, you're going to skip it. You're not going to enjoy it at home in your kitchen before you get ready and leave for work. So start eating it at work and you will be so much happier and healthier for it.
You can plan ahead
Breakfast at your desk is going to look a lot different to the long and lazy weekend breakfast that includes freshly made waffles and bacon. You're going to need to bring easy food that doesn't get ruined during transport and is not all that hard or complicated to prepare. That means planning ahead.
If we're organized and we look ahead, we can succeed. That's true of that deadline that's fast approaching and it's also true of making food ahead so we actually eat well. There are so many fun breakfast options that you can bring to the office. Make a batch of granola, for example, and enjoy with a small yogurt of your preferred brand. Add a banana or an apple and you've got a pretty well-balanced breakfast. You can even make a few easy breakfast burritos. Just bake whole-wheat tortillas filled with scrambled eggs, salsa and sweet potato, and freeze them. Then just grab one from your freezer and heat up in your office kitchen. It's also likely that it will almost defrost during your commute and you can enjoy it cold if that's your thing. Delicious and easy.
Your office microwave: your new best friend
The microwave is a miracle of an appliance, and that has never been truer than in your office kitchen. It's basically your only option for heating food up, since you don't exactly have a gourmet kitchen stocked with a stove and oven. And what breakfast goes well with microwaves? That would be oatmeal. Once seen as a boring and somewhat flavourless breakfast option that your mom would make you eat when you were a kid because it was healthy, oatmeal is now trendy and featured on several popular vegan food blogs. There's Overnight Oats which you can soak in milk and a banana in the fridge so you wake up to an already made breakfast. You could definitely bring those to work, but warm oatmeal might be more appealing and comforting, especially when you're gearing up for a crazy busy work day. So your best bet is to bring some oats -either soaked overnight as the above recipe suggests or dry- and heat them up in your office microwave. You can add a can of coconut milk to make the oats super creamy, or go for the dairy or non-dairy milk of your choice. The toppings are endless and this is where you can really get a bunch of nutrients in, which will boost your mood. Try a scoop of sunflower seed butter for a peanut butter alternative, some slices of banana, and even a few chocolate chips if you've got a sweet tooth or craving.
The best part about oats? They are incredibly filling because they have so much fiber. That's good news for you since it will keep your energy levels high at the office. It will also make you less likely to want a massive lunch or too many junk food snacks.
You can keep breakfast food at work
Bread, nut butter, fruit -these are all typical healthy morning foods, and as a bonus, they don't spoil super quickly. Keep some ingredients in your office kitchen cupboards and fridge, or even in your desk drawers if you have the space. Then you can whip up different breakfasts every morning while using a combination of those ingredients.
You can't go wrong with a quick breakfast sandwich with almond butter and strawberries. Switch it up and try blueberries one day and even peaches the next.
You can mix things up
Boredom is what kills a healthy habit before it even truly begins. If you used to eat the same breakfast every single morning and now you call a paper cup from Starbucks your morning fuel, you might think breakfast means a plain fried egg over a piece of whole-wheat toast. No flavour, no excitement. No one wants to enjoy that five mornings a week. If you eat breakfast at your desk, that's the exact definition of a routine, and the last thing you want is to make it a boring routine. You already have so many things about your job that don't exactly thrill you.
So make it a point to eat something new, if not every day, then every once in a while. Rotate between whole grains: whole-wheat bread one day, oats the next, even quinoa (you can enjoy the trendy grain as you would any cereal with milk and fruit). Variety is the spice of life, they say, and you will be more interested in eating breakfast if you're having fun changing up the meals.
You already have the time
We often give the excuse that we don't have time, whether we're talking about skipping this super important meal or trying to get to the gym. It's an easy excuse and it may even be true sometimes, but it's definitely not true if you're talking about eating breakfast at the office. You know you have to be there at 9 a.m. and so you might as well eat as soon as you get to work.
You can start a Breakfast Club at the office
If you're not eating breakfast, chances are your fellow coworkers aren't, either. Why not start a club and get one employee to bring in breakfast for everyone once a week? It will take the pressure off figuring out what you're going to eat that morning, and it's a great bonding experience.
See Also: How to Make Healthy and Delicious Breakfast Smoothies
Tired of starving all day long at the office because you didn't eat breakfast? Want to get into the habit of eating something before noon but think it's too difficult and too much effort? Those days are over. With these easy tips, you can eat breakfast at your desk five mornings a week and you will be able to focus all day long.

BD McCray, Deputy Director, United States Customs and Border Protection, IACP Law Enforcement Fellow
Transitioning into the online and social media arena can be daunting and stressful, especially as the need for transparency is coupled with requirement to maintain the integrity and security of personally identifiable information (PII). However, as many of IACP's more than 26,000 members make that transition, the IACP is meeting your changing needs by launching a new, revamped online accompaniment to their flagship publication, The Police Chief.
After years of resistance and lack of understanding, I, too, am obligated to get involved in the digital and social media space. A creature of habit and comfort, I have been encouraged by professional necessity to get into the action (better late than never).
My first rotational assignment as an IACP Fellow is with the IACP Outreach Team and my tasks include familiarizing myself with the IACP tools and efforts to keep our membership informed and in touch. To this end, I was asked to prepare a blog about the newly redesigned Police Chief magazine website. (Candidly, I had to look online to determine the meaning of the word "blog" and then review the internal policy for writing a blog.)
As many of you are aware, IACP publishes a monthly magazine that is distributed to all IACP members and other subscribers. In October 2016, the IACP launched the new Police Chief magazine website. Police Chief Online is not a replacement for the hard copy of the magazine, rather it is a supplement to it. The new website provides IACP members and subscribers with all of the information contained in the print magazine, as well as other helpful content such as weekly online-only articles. Other new features of the online magazine include
- the translation tool (Google Translate) – facilitating seamless communication with our international membership
- sharing functions – allows user to send articles by email or share via social media
- subscribe or submit features – allow the user to subscribe to the magazine or submit an article for consideration
The new website is user-friendly and logical. It provides you with 24/7 access to all of the Police Chief magazine content and more. The online version facilitates the participation of a larger audience, the photos and graphics are pleasing to the eye, and the summary paragraphs provide you with narrative information to encourage further reading or bookmarking for later review. The content headings provide you with a quick reference to the topic of the article and help you quickly navigate to the topical areas you are focused on. From my viewpoint this is an important tool for current and aspiring executives who must stay informed, engaged, and aware of changing trends.
Effective on December 7, 2016, exclusive access to Police Chief Online will be granted to IACP members and magazine subscribers. Not an IACP member yet? Click the Join button on the Police Chief website or visit www.theIACP.org/membership to join the association.
Visit us at www.policechiefmagazine.org and let us know what you think of the new website!

Customer Reviews
All reviews are from people who have redeemed deals with this merchant.
What You'll Get
Faces are constantly at work, tirelessly helping you to make good impressions and risking everything to avoid imitating the person in the mirror. Reward your face for its efforts with today's Groupon: for $99, you get three 60-minute custom facials at Millennium Park Medical Spa (a $210 value).
The licensed aestheticians at Millennium Park Medical Spa cook up custom facials with botanical Yon-Ka products. After evaluating the client's skin to determine its needs and set up treatment protocols, the aestheticians begin the facial with a deep cleanse, followed by a steaming and extractions to clarify pores of impurities if necessary. Gentle exfoliation stimulates collagen production as it sloughs off dead skin cells, making skin as taut and smooth as a trampoline covered in lotion. Also co-starring in the treatment are a facial massage, which stimulates circulation, and a custom moisturizing mask, which drenches skin with nutrients.
Yon-Ka's fruit and plant extracts contain antioxidants that help to curb the signs of aging and marine ingredients to exfoliate dead skin and purify oily faces. Essential oils replenish moisture in skin cells even as they remind nostrils of lavender, sandalwood, or the smell of getting lost in an apothecary.

About Millennium Park Massage
Located steps away from the expansive lakefront park that shares its name, Millennium Park Massage is a similar oasis from Chicago's bustling downtown. Inside, Michael Moran—a graduate of the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine—draws from Swedish, myofascial release, Thai, and Tui na massage modalities to help clients relax amid the stress of constantly directing tourists to the nearest sidewalk. Also an herbalist and acupuncturist, Michael draws from the tenets of traditional Chinese medicine to pave a thoughtful and well-rounded road to relief and wellness.

text: Took my bike up to my LBS today to have them dial in my fork and rear shock on my El Bastardo. I have the 5.5" travel Bastard. My LBS the rear shock up with the shock set on 1 and with the propedal disengaged. They set it up so when I sit on the bike and then get off the shock moved about 25-30% and the fork was set up with the same movement. Does this sound about right? I know a lot of this is subjective and depends on the trails I ride and such but my LBS said that his setup was a good starting point.

Thank you for the prize! It's always nice to know that people like your idea.
Congratulations on winning our SmartPaste contest! We love your submission because it delivered on 2 key elements / communication objectives for us- 1) the 'human', fun, personified side of smartpaste (it's a toothpaste, but almost has human attributes) and 2) still delivering and intuitively communicating why it's better than ordinary pastes.

When I received the email from eYeka telling me I had won second prize in the "Smart Toothpaste" contest, I could not believe my eyes. I discovered eYeka seeking contests on the internet. I found this very interesting because it allows creators to be in contact with prestigious brands. It is now two and a half years since I am on the platform and I have participated in several competition, my media does not always successfully been accepted in the contest but I am very happy to winning my first prize and thanks to the brand for selecting my proposal.
Congratulations on being one of the winners of our SmartPaste contest! We loved your submission because of its human touch, delivering the benefit (a toothpaste that adapts to your mouth's needs) in an engaging, emotional way. It also captured well the 'magic' behind the smartpaste idea - that it is more than toothpaste, it's like it has human attributes. Well done! and please do participate again in our future contests.

Congratulations for being one of the winners of our Oral-B Smart Toothpaste contest!
