By encouraging influential people—bloggers, customers, thought leaders, journalists, consultants, experts—to talk about your products and to recommend them, you quickly score a unique advantage over your competitors.
So how can marketers make sure that their message is the one to get heard and absorbed?
Marketers have realized that there is a better chance that their message will be picked up and acted on if it has more credibility than conventional advertisements. They have understood that cynicism among customers can be overcome when, for example, family and friends recommend a product for use.
This knowledge, and the might of social media, can be used to market products indirectly to potential consumers. By encouraging influential people to talk about products and recommend them, marketers quickly score a unique advantage over their competitors....

.Once, these analysts would have written "big-picture" pieces, says Mr Kundnani. But 24-hour news and Twitter demand on-the-fly reporting and analysis, which blend into journalism. Nathan Thrall, the ICG's Middle East analyst, based in Jerusalem, has written about the conflict in Gaza for, among others, the New York Times and the London Review of Books.
Some journalism, meanwhile, is becoming more wonkish. In April the New York Times launched the Upshot, which features data-packed articles—many written by wonks. "Wonkblog", by the Washington Post, contains stories explained "in one chart". In January one of its best-known writers, Ezra Klein, left to launch a website, Vox, that does something similar.
For politicians, policymakers and readers, more journalism means more information and choice. Inaccuracies can be quickly challenged and there is always a second opinion. For journalists, the news is not so good. Twitter, blogs and newsletters can get a think-tank's ideas to its audience direct. Hence a relationship that used to be symbiotic, with wonks helping create news and hacks distributing it, is becoming competitive—especially in the battle for influential readers, such as politicians....

Ah, slogans: Those easily identified and often game-changing phrases that can come to symbolize a brand for an entire generation or more.
There are a few legendary slogans in the annals of time: From Coca-Cola's "I'd Like to Buy the World a Coke" and the famous "Got Milk?" campaign of the 1990s, to Nike's "Just Do It" and, of course, "Where's the Beef?" from Wendy's.
While slogans have the potential to take a brand from relative anonymity to household status, they also have the potential to confuse and alienate audiences with vagueness, wordiness or confusing verbage.
Rebranding is never any easy decision, but in some cases, it's the right thing to do. In this post, we've highlighted 11 of the most-needed slogan makeovers of all time....
Jeff Domansky's insight:
Lots of marketing and branding lessons in these makeovers.
Lauren Mackie's curator insight, Today, 6:52 PM
When it comes to branding a little bit of creativity and thought is needed in order to get your brand out there. This article points out that taglines are not successful or memorable when they confuse people or come across as irrelevant. Re-branding is risky but can pay off, its all about creating a good tag line - this means creating a phrase which is inseparable from the brand.
In the short run, it's more fun to be a consumer. It sure seems like consumers have power. The customer is always right, of course. The consumer can walk away and shop somewhere else.
In the long run, though, the smart producer wins, because the consumer comes to forget how to produce. As producers consolidate (and they often do) they are the ones who ultimately set the agenda....

Seth Godin's marketing Zen.
From www
A population of 100,000 is no longer a guarantee that a city like Richmond, California can sustain a thriving daily paper. Readers have drifted from the tactile pleasures of print to the digital gratification of their smartphone screens, and advertising revenues have drifted with them. Titles that once served up debates from City Hall, news of school teams' triumphs and classified ads for outgrown bikes have stopped the presses for good.
Last January, however, a site called the Richmond Standard launched, promising "a community-driven daily news source dedicated to shining a light on the positive things that are going on in the community", and giving everyone from athletes to entrepreneurs the recognition they deserve. Since then, it has recorded the "quick-thinking teen" commended by California's governor for saving a woman from overdosing; the "incredible strength" of the 5ft 6in high-school freshman who can bench-press "a whopping 295lbs"; and councilman Tom Butt's warning about the costs of vacating a blighted public housing project.
The Richmond Standard is one of the more polished sites to emerge in the age of hyper-local digital news brands such as Patch and DNAinfo.com. That may be because it is run and funded by Chevron, the $240bn oil group which owns the Richmond refinery that in August 2012 caught fire, spewing plumes of black smoke over the city and sending more than 15,000 residents to hospital for medical help....

iWhen it comes to social medeia, Catharine Taylor asks "Where are the CMOs?" It's a great questiom.
Picture yourself being "that standing desk guy" not just at the office, but at a coffee shop, library, and wherever else you happen to be.
There are a lot of standing desks on the market these days. But most of them are pretty stationary. They assume you have the sort of job where staying in place is what you have to do from 9 to 5.
Many of us need to be mobile during the day. We visit customers or colleagues, hang out in coffee shops, or work while traveling. That's when you might want something that's not only standing, but also portable. Something like StandStand, perhaps?
Now on Kickstarter, StandStand is a three-piece wooden kit that locks together into one sturdy platform for your laptop. And very elegant it is too. It weighs less than two pounds, flattens into one interconnected lump, and costs as little as $50 if buying early through the crowdfunding campaign, which is considerably less than most standing desks (probably only building your own is cheaper).The design comes from Luke Leafgren, who makes his case in the video here:...

...Fortunately, I was working with an amazing team. My manager, Brian Balfour, had perfected the art of audience research. And my teammate, Dan Wolchonok, had the perfect mix of coding expertise and marketing passion to quickly ship experiments.

We like to think that all of our decisions are rational and that we are in control, however our unconscious mind, drives how we respond to advertising, brands, products, and in the end determines all of our buying decision. As a result, our landing page design plays an integral role in how our brains make a decision to buy a product or not.

Richard Levitt, who worked in communications at Oracle for more than seven years, originally published this post on LinkedIn. It started off right
…Around 1984, Rick Bennett convinced Larry to start running ads. Rick's approach is highly aggressive and confrontational. And, as it turned out, highly disruptive and successful.In an essay about his time working with Larry, Rick wrote, "I once asked Larry if maybe we ought to run some ad copy by legal. His response surprised me. He said, 'Hell no! I've got a litigation department. Let 'em litigate.
'"That relationship lasted until about 1990. Soon Larry started writing his own ads. Larry is a brilliant tech guy, powerful leader and businessman. But he's not a copywriter. And without anyone to guide or challenge him, that edgy positioning diminished into self-referential statistics. Worse, ads crumbled under extreme legal oversight....

These seven tips will help you get visuals working for you.
Morgan Lefkof's curator insight, September 20, 5:40 PM
This article discusses the seven ways to have the perfect content in a photo on social networks. The first of the seven ways is that one picture will not always work on every form of social media. Images with certain colors have different reactions on different mediums of social media. The next way to have the perfect content in a photo on social networks is to make the photo personal. Pictures that trigger emotions catch the viewers. The third way is to embrace the text. This means that a company should try to include text on the image. The fourth way is to use action shots. Show "what is happening now, or what will be happening soon". The fifth way is to include not only images in posts, but also GIFs. The sixth way is to make sure you include images that you find from other websites. And lastly, use multiple images.
Recently I believe that more companies are trying to steer away from wordy posts on social media. This article would be really helpful for companies who are new to posting pictures online. Because viewers scroll quickly through their social media feeds, it is important to have posts that are eye catching. This article gives companies a checklist of effective images to have on their social medias.
Gemma Shannon's curator insight, Today, 6:17 AM
Great article scooped by Jeff Domansky on top tips for creating images for your social content. One tip in particular resonated with me - the psychology of colours ; it is noted in the article that red/orange images receive double the amount of clicks as blue/green images on social media channels. Something worth bearing in mind if you want to optimise your engagement with fans/followers on social media through images. Another good tip related to including text on images to drive your brand's message home and including some text in larger font than others for emphasis - a great iOS app for doing this is Wordswag.

Brands such as Coca-Cola, McDonald's, Kellogg's, General Motors, Microsoft and more have produced ad campaigns that have made their products household favorites.
So what could be wrong with following proven advertising techniques such as theirs? Plenty.More than ever before, people are tuning out advertising campaigns.

Wine Spectator
"The 2003 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape (the # 2 wine in the Wine Spectator's annual winefest) has long been one of the most profound wines of the vintage. It somehow manages to offer the vintage's character in power, high glycerin, and huge volume, but retains remarkable elegance and finesse that is so much in keeping with the style of Clos des Papes. The wine has a dense ruby/purple-tinged color and a wonderfully sweet nose of framboise, blackberry, and kirsch liqueur intermixed with Chinese black tea and licorice. The wine is full-bodied and voluptuous, but once past all the glycerin and beautiful, dense fruit of this full-bodied wine, there is striking purity, elegance, finesse, and surprising freshness. Still primary, it looks set to have a long life of 20-25 or more years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025."

The importance of off-shell effects has been investigated in (d,p) stripping reactions and the model triton.
For the stripping reactions a formalism is developed for calculating differential cross-sections and angular distributions assuming a direct process. By taking into account the off-shell background term and its interference several levels in the reaction ¹⁵N(d,p)¹⁶N (unbound) have been interpreted. Contributions to the resonances from other sources are considered by extending the coupled channel theory off the energy shell. In three soluble two-channel models, with square well, δ-function and non-local interactions, the off-shell resonance and bound state behaviour is discussed. The off-shell T-matrix for nuclear reactions is also derived using the R-matrix theory and it is discussed in some numerical detail.
For the model triton the ground state energy for two classes of potentials, a rank two and a partly non-local have been calculated. All these potentials fit the low energy data but in addition they support a continuum bound state (CBS). In each class two sets of potentials, one with a continuum bound state k = 5 fmˉ¹ the other at k = 7 fmˉ¹ have been investigated. The rank-two potentials produce a triton ground state collapse in all cases. The binding increases as the CBS moves to higher energies and decreases when the repulsive form factor becomes stronger.
The partly non-local potentials combine long-range locality with a short range non-locality. Though their non-local parts acting alone produce a collapse no collapse has been found for the total interactions. In fact the binding is almost the same as that of the local potential acting alone.

It's official. Summer is over and Football is here. As summer's warmth gently fades away it's replaced each Sunday with the collective glow from millions of tailgate and backyard grills. While once the exclusive domaine of burgers and Brats, and there is nothing wrong with a well-cooked burger or Brat might I add, today's tailgaters are more adventuresome than ever.
It's not uncommon to find an amazing array of food at many football games today: Jambalaya, Chili, Quesadillas and even deep fried Turkeys have made more than their share of appearances. I prefer to keep thing, well a bit handier. Working off the backyard grill cuts down my clean up duties as does making sure most of the snacks are finger foods.
Weaving all these elements together and trying to retain some credibility at a tailgate can be a challenge, but not when you're making spicy grilled chicken drumsticks. I wouldn't dare call these Buffalo style but they are a meaty take on those spicy standbys.
What to expect:Pinot Grigio is one of the world's most popular wines. Also known under the French moniker Pinot Gris, and even the German Ruländer among others, it's a chameleon of a grape producing a range of styles, from the light fruity Italian style that has gained popularity to a more mineral, flinty and rich wine favored by the French, particularly in Alsace, and emulated by many in the new world.
2007 Paul Blanck Pinot Gris
While I might be tempted to reach for a Grand Cru Pinot Gris, this version is lighter, yet has a rich mouthfeel and lovely subtle spice tones that can handle the heat and spice of the chicken dish. And it will still pair well with that Bratwurst!
Spicy Grilled Chicken Drumsticks
Spicy and well seasoned, these Chicken Drumsticks are perfect for your next tailgate or any time you want an easy, flavorful grilled chicken dish. This marinade works equally well with chicken thighs, wings, and even whole chickens. To see the recipe click here.
This recipe requires some forethought. Marinating the chicken overnight is essential.
For the marinade:
In a large bowl combine
The night before you plan to serve the chicken, add it to the marinade bag and toss to coat the chicken thoroughly. It's always a good idea to flip the bag once or twice over the course of marinating to keep each piece in contact with the marinade.
This marinade recipe works well for 2 to 2½ lbs of chicken drumsticks
When the Chicken is marinated, ideally for at least 8 and up to 12 hous, it's time to prepare the grill.
You'll want to use some indirect heat to get theses drumsticks cooked and then finish them directly over the coals to finish them and get them crisped.
Prepare your coals in half of your grill, and let them ash over, they should be nice and hot, 450F if you have a thermometer than can measure your grill temperature.
Remove the drumsticks from the marinade and place them close enough to the coals so that they will cook but not directly over the coals to avoid flare-ups.
Turn the drumsticks every 5-7 minutes to allow them to cook through evenly. The drumsticks should be cooked through in about 25-30 minutes at which time you can move them to directly over the coals for a minute or so on each side to get them golden brown. Chicken is done when its internal temperature is 165F.
Allow chicken to cool a bit so that it retains its juices and enjoy!
You can use this marinade fro thighs, wings, or even whole chickens if you prefer.
For spicy food it's generally recommended that one stick with wines that are light in tannins and lower in alcohol. One might turn to a white wine for a recipe like this though finding one with enough flavor to strand up to this might be a challenge. An Alsatian Pinot Gris would be up for the task

TREASURE COAST -- Cash for College at Indian River State College is a one-day event to help new and returning students obtain financial aid for college. The event will be held on Saturday, March 15 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at all IRSC campuses and the IRSC Blackburn Educational Building in Fort Pierce.
The event is designed to help college-bound individuals of any age with the financial aid application process. Those attending the event will get no-cost professional assistance completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The FAFSA is required for any student seeking federal and state financial aid, including grants and loans. Attendees should bring their 2013 tax return and W-2 forms. Dependent students must also bring parents' tax and W-2 forms.
IRSC students are awarded over $40 million in financial aid, including grants and scholarships, each year. "Don't let financial concerns stop you from obtaining a college education," said Mary Lewis, Director of Financial Aid at IRSC.

The first trailer for the upcoming sequel to the Wii launch title Red Steel. The game seems to use in-game assets like the models and possibly animations but it's way too crisp to be on the Wii (no offense).

Spanish Woman Jumps to Her Death as Eviction Looms
A woman in Spain jumped to her death as bailiffs approached to evict her Friday from her fourth-floor apartment for failing to pay the mortgage, officials said.
It was the second apparent suicide linked to evictions, and it further illustrates the dire conditions many Spaniards find themselves in as the country's economy sinks. The government recently created a task force to study how to reduce evictions because of the devastating personal impact of repossessions due to tough Spanish mortgage rules and growing unease among the public on the subject.
The unnamed 53-year-old woman threw herself from her balcony in a suburb of the northern Spanish city of Bilbao, the regional Interior Ministry said. She worked at a local bus depot, was married to a former town councilor and had a 21-year-old daughter.

Re: Spanish Woman Jumps to Her Death as Eviction Looms
Incredibly, the European Commission insists that the reason why austerity has been a disaster, causing suicides etc, is that the austerity has not been harsh enough.
If a home owner in Spain cannot make the agreed mortgage payments — through unemployment or low income — then he or she can get evicted but also remain liable to repay whatever value is left on the mortgage after the repossession.
That's called a deficiency judgment.
Some states in the USA allow it too.
Since the 2008 property crash, more than 350,000 people have been caught in this trap. There are another 500 evictions a day, according to government figures.
But with no jobs, how can they continue to pay the bankers?
I thought American society was savage. Spain seems even worse.
Fortunately for the thieves (bankers and politicians) if anyone questions their theft (e.g. the Golden Dawn, or Nazi Germany), the rest of the world condemns and attacks them.

MADISON, Wis. (WSAU-Wheeler News) -- Additional details into a fatal stabbing at an apartment in Madison on Friday has emerged.
Madison Police say the suspect, who has not been identified, made threats to his neighbors in the past. Two people – a woman in her 50s and a daughter in her 30s – died from their injuries. The woman's 16-year-old son was also injured in the attack, but escaped to get help.
Police were forced to shoot the suspect when they arrived on the scene. Police add that the daughter's 4-year-old son was hiding during the incident… he was not injured.

Customer Reviews
Husband seems to like it.
Love it. Easy to assemble, everything was excellent including the delivery. very happy with the product & SERVICE!
The shipping was fast, the stand is awesome, the only thing wrong is it said it came with skirting which wasn't there so I could only give a 4
Needs an actual assembly book.
Very nice stand for the cost. I picked this one due to the flip up rail and foot platform so it will serve my needs as a bowhunter but also for the wife with crossbow or rifle. The instructions are limited but if you pay attention closely all is good in assembly, except mine had holes in wrong location for foot platform (I drilled others in correct local). The seat is only concern, the strap on seat form with the single loop seat pad connection likely won't last, will replace it with boat seat.
Nice stand. Wasn't as hard to put together as a lot of comments made it sound, although the instructions do suck. Stand whistles in the Oklahoma wind. I'll have to duck tape the ends of the tubes. Small job for such a good price.

Partnerships Enhance Care
Recognizing the power of teamwork, Sutter Health actively pursues alliances with community groups, government agencies and health organizations. Through these partnerships—and ongoing investments in research and technology—we've helped create innovative solutions to meet the wide-ranging needs of our diverse communities. The result: We improve and broaden the scope of services that patients can access.
Partners' clinical trial examines treatments for autism
In August 2012, Sacramento's Sutter Neuroscience Institute, in partnership with stem-cell bank Cord Blood Registry, launched the first FDA-approved clinical trial to study the use of newborn stem cells to treat autism. The first-of-its-kind research comes at a time when experts say autism has become the fastest growing developmental disability.
Patient-focused health plan takes first step
In 2012, Sutter Health filed an application with the California Department of Managed Health Care for a license to operate its own health plan. The license, conditionally approved in spring 2013, is an important step in our ongoing efforts to make high-quality care more affordable and to improve the health of communities. To request more information about the health plan, email firstname.lastname@example.com. Please allow seven business days for a response.
Prevention project helps save patient lives
Hospitals in the Sutter Health Sacramento Sierra Region completed a two-year grant project in sepsis care. The regional sepsis initiative, funded through a partnership of Sutter Health and the Moore Foundation, implemented evidence-based care practices in early sepsis screening, diagnosis and treatment to help improve patient care and save lives. We saved an estimated 697 patient lives during the two-year grant phase. Our efforts in early sepsis recognition and intervention continue with ongoing training and improvements in care.
Research investment supports patient care
Improving patient care quality and increasing affordability are the goals of Sutter Health's sustained commitment to medical research. In 2012, we began our five-year, more than $20 million investment in a new program that aligns, integrates and expands our research activities systemwide. Researchers can now more rapidly translate their findings into innovative products and treatments to benefit patients across our network. Two national leaders in medical research joined our network to oversee the program.
Sutter partners with national leaders to improve health care
In 2012, we began partnering with Mayo Clinic, Denver Health, Intermountain Healthcare, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center and other leaders in health care through the High Value Healthcare Collaborative. Group participants share knowledge, data and methods to help all the organizations improve their health care services.
High-profile network collaborates to protect hospital patients
Sutter Health joined the federally funded Intermountain Healthcare Hospital Engagement Network to collaborate with other health organizations for better hospital care. The network focuses on reducing preventable hospital readmissions and preventing hospital-acquired conditions such as pressure ulcers, bloodstream infections and ventilator-associated pneumonia.
Organizations partner to help Medicare patients stay healthy
Novato Community Hospital, part of our Sutter Health network, partnered with Marin County and Marin General Hospital to help reduce rapid hospital readmissions of at-risk Medicare patients. The new partnership, Advance Care Transitions, is one of just 30 nationwide and the first in California. It's a test model created as a result of the Affordable Care Act to reduce Medicare costs by providing community support to discharged patients at risk for hospital readmission.
Digital system helps doctors better coordinate care
In 2012, we continued to provide digital tools to connect our physicians in independent practices across Northern California to our electronic health record (EHR) system. The tools—Sutter Community Connect, SutterLink and Epic Hyperspace—give doctors instant and secure access to health histories, medication information and other critical patient data on our EHR system. This further improves patient safety, quality and coordination of care.
Sutter part of prestigious national home care study
Sutter Health participated in the Vulnerable Patient Study, sponsored by the Visiting Nurse Associations of America. The study identified whether characteristics of vulnerable patients—such as complex medical conditions—are linked to inadequate Medicare reimbursement. The research aims to ensure that such patients maintain access to the services they need through sufficient payment to home health care providers.

A survey into small business banking costs shows that a mere 22% of firms enjoy 'free' banking, and the remaining 88% pay a total of £2.3 billion per year in banking fees.
The high cost of running a business bank account
The poll, conducted by YouGov on behalf of CashFlows, a financial services company, found that not only were the vast majority of UK businesses paying a high price for the privilege of having a business bank account, but very few had the chance to earn any interest on their deposits.
Just under 22% of businesses in the study pay no monthly fees or transaction charges on their bank accounts, around 24% pay up to £25 per month, 15% pay between £26 and £50, and 10.5% pay between £51 and £100 per month.
The survey's authors estimate that that businesses pay in excess of £2.3 billion each year in charges and fees.
Of course, in the current climate, it is harder than ever to earn interest on banking deposits, but the majority of business current accounts pay no interest at all, despite the funds being lent out to other customers at healthy rates.
It will come as no surprise to hear that 52% of respondents said they would consider switching to a different banking provider if the costs were lower. In reality however, both businesses and individuals rarely change their banks, due to the perceived 'hassle' of doing so.
Best banking offers typically apply to start-ups only
If you are starting up in business for the first time, you will find that most of the major high street banks offer some kind of 'free business banking' period – which typically lasts for 12 to 18 months, although some accounts remain competitive indefinitely. We would recommend that you take time comparing accounts before signing up, and make sure you are aware of the ongoing transaction costs and monthly charges which will apply to your account once any free period expires
If you would like to read some useful tips for choosing the best banking provider for your business, try our banking section.

The issue of lack of qualified STEM workers is, by now, well known. What are some of the innovations being employed to help correct this?
A physics professor at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, Bob Beichner, has completely changed up his classroom by "flipping" it. He felt that the plethora of videos and information on the internet made lecturing a moot exercise, so in his classroom, students are focused on practical, hands-on work and problems. He has gone so far as to test different sizes of tables, to determine the optimal size for work space and communication (the answer: 7' round). Students, working in teams, are further motivated by contracts within those teams by which they can remove less productive classmates (who then have to do all of their work by phone; apparently this has only happened a handful of times).
What has been the result? Beichner's students take the same exams as other physics classes and generally score a grade better than their peers. Failure rates among... Read More

We offer two ways to locate information:

Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.
A good portion of the 2007 blend is from Gamble Ranch, a vineyard that has consistently
delivered such rich, ripe fruit flavors. There's a richness in this wine that is wonderfully balanced by a bright citrus note. A sweet oak note weaves together the many layers of aroma and flavor, carrying through to the finish. This wine is always a pleasure to make and equally pleasurable to drink.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Wild West Shows were traveling vaudeville performances in the United States and Europe. The first and prototypical wild west show was Buffalo Bill's, formed in 1883 and lasting until 1913. The shows introduced many western performers and personalities, and a romanticized version of the American Old West, to a wide audience. Will Rogers also toured a wild west show.
The mythology and legends of the American West evoke images of adventure filled with cowboys, Indians, wild animals, outlaws, and stagecoaches. The real American West of the 19th century was not nearly as glamorous as often depicted. Cowboys, Native American Indians, army scouts, outlaws and wild animals did truly exist in the West. Gunfights, stagecoach attacks, and train holdups, however were not an everyday ordeal. The dramatic myth of the Wild West as we see it today is really a "puffed-up exaggeration"[1] of the real western frontier. The shaping of this myth of western life was aided into creation by paintings, sculptures, dime-novels, pulp magazines, live performances, film, and television. More than anyone or anything else, William Frederick Cody, better known as Buffalo Bill, can be credited with helping to create and preserve a lasting legend of the West. Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show took the reality of western life and glamorized it into an appealing show for Eastern audiences and helped to permanently preserve the legend of the Wild West.[citation needed]
"Cowboys driving cattle over open range. Outlaws and lawmen facing one another on a dusty main street. Indian hunters racing through buffalo herds on horseback. These images, so familiar from books and movies, are what come to mind when many people think of the American West."[2] Although these images are not entirely fictionalized, the real American West was home to European settlers and pioneers. Show helped develop dramatic imagesof the "wild west" and the west was a place open for imagination and new starts.
Some lucky settlers or people flocking to the west found this promise of a better life fulfilled. These are the people who made the myth of the west true. However for many others the promise did not come through. For them life was rough and the truth of the west was rougher. Still, a promise for the struggling people of eastern cities, suburban, and rural areas was a nice idea. It gave them hope and a bit of assurance that their hardships were not forever or in vain. The development of Wild West shows were a way to preserve this open promise- without the failure that it often presented in reality. For Native Americans, of course, the back side of the medal was a constantly lived reality, where the Wild West's 'frontier' was a battle front taking over traditional lands.
Wild West shows were shows that took the reality of the West and glamorized it for the eastern audiences to give it an exciting appeal. The showmen who ran the shows adapted western life to fit an exaggerated yet captivating image which the eastern audiences both expected and were intrigued by. The shows were a marriage of reality and theater and were designed by the showmen to be both "authentic" and entertaining, a balance which sought to not flat out fabricate, but only enhance truth. Some shows even claimed educational benefits. The shows were "Romance and reality, adventure and 'the story of our country'".[3]
Beyond representing a promise for the easterners, Wild West Shows celebrated the achievement of the frontier movement as being the most important accomplishment in American history. The shows were a winning combination of history, patriotism, and adventure which managed to create an enduring spirit of the unsettled west and capture audience's hearts throughout America and even Europe.
Now just how did one show manage to do all this? Wild West Shows may have been just shows, but they sure included a lot of action. Wild animals, trick performances, theatrical reenactments, and all sorts of characters from the frontier were all incorporated into the show's adventure-packed program.
Theatrical reenactments included those of battle scenes, "characteristic" western scenes, and even hunts. Shooting exhibitions were also in the line up with extensive shooting displays and trick shots. Competitions that came in the form of races between combinations of people or animals exhilarated and stimulated the audience. Equally exciting were rodeo events, involving rough and "dangerous" activities performed by cowboys with different animals. In short, Wild West Shows began to include any type of "western" event that could in any way appeal to the audiences.
The origination of the Wild West Show derived from the interest shown by the east of the rough and wild western frontier. The real west was unknown to them, and they were willing to believe just about anything. They were enthralled by the west, and Wild West shows were the answer to popular demands. Wild West shows preserved the disappearing world of the unsettled and untamed west and brought it to life for audiences.
Around the start of the 20th century, Wild West Shows were extremely popular. Within the first two years of the first Wild West Show, over 10,000,000 spectators had seen it and it had a profit of $100,000. The reason for their popularity existed simply in the basis that easterners were immensely attracted to them. Easterners were eager to enjoy the thrill and danger of the west, and in this way it was made possible to do so without the risks and consequences that came along with the real west. The Wild West shows satisfied their cravings for adventure.
Over time, various Wild West shows were developed. They were started by people with generally flamboyant names such as Dr. W.F. Carver, Pawnee Bill, 'Buckskin Joe' Hoyt, and Mexican Joe. Women also tried their hand in the business, with names headlining as Luella-Forepaugh Fish and the Kemp Sisters. Tillie Baldwin also made a name for herself. Of all the shows, the first, most famous and most successful was Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World. This was the show that started it all.
Buffalo Bill was born William Frederick Cody on February 26, 1846. He lived until January 10, 1917. Cody grew up on the frontier and loved his way of life. As he got older, some of his titles he earned included buffalo hunter, U.S. army scout and guide, and showman, as well as Pony Express Rider, Indian fighter, and even author. Whatever Cody's titles, he was destined for fame.
His track of fame began as with his reputation as a master buffalo hunter. While hunting buffalo for pay to feed railroad workers, he shot and killed 11 out of 12 buffalo, earning him his nickname and show name "Buffalo Bill." As an army scout, Cody extended his fame by gaining recognition as an army scout with a reputation for bravery. As a well-known scout, he often led rich men from the East and Europe and even royalty on hunting trips. Cody's fame began to spread to the East when an author, Ned Buntline caught wind of him and wrote a dime novel about Buffalo Bill, called Buffalo Bill, the King of Border Men (1869). To top it all off, Buntline's novel was turned into a theatrical production which greatly contributed to his success and popularity in the east.
Before long, Cody ended up starring as himself in Buntline's play. Soon after, he started his own theatrical troop. It wasn't until 1883 when Cody first got his idea for a Wild West Show. That same year, he launched Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in Omaha, Nebraska. With his Wild West Show in hand, nobody could deny Buffalo Bill's fame. "At the turn of the twentieth century, William F. Cody was known as 'the greatest showman on the face of the earth'".[4] Cody had full domination of the Wild West show business.
Out of all of his fame-bearing titles, William F. Cody is most celebrated for being the inventor of the Wild West show. His crown title would be impresario, or manager or producer of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. His motivation to produce the show was to preserve the western way of life that he grew up with and loved. Driven by his ambition to keep this way of life from disappearing, Cody turned his "real life adventure into the first and greatest outdoor western show".[5] Cody did not want to see his way of life vanish without remembrance. Consequently, Cody became the first real Westerner to cash in on the western myth, which others had been writing literature, dime novels, and plays about for some time.
In creating the Wild West Show, Cody also created the myth of the adventuresome, exciting, and outright wild western frontier. Cody helped pitch-in to give the West its image as we see it today. The legend he fathered became a permanent part in America's history and is still present today. He also was the first to establish the format and content of Wild West shows.
The shows consisted of reenactments of history combined with displays of showmanship, sharp-shooting, hunts, racing, or rodeo style events. Each show was 3–4 hours long and attracted crowds of thousands of people daily. The show began with a parade on horseback. The parade was a major ordeal, an affair that involved huge public crowds and many performers, including the Congress of Rough Riders. The Congress of Rough Riders was composed of marksman from around the world, including the future President Theodore Roosevelt, who marched through the parade on horseback.
Among the composition of the show were "historical" scenes. "The exact scenes changed over time, but were either portrayed as a 'typical' event such as the early settlers defending a homestead, a wagon train crossing the plains, or a more specific event such as the Battle of the Little Bighorn".[6] In both types of events, Buffalo Bill used his poetic license to both glorify himself or others while heightening the villainous mischievousness of the "bad guys" (outlaws or Indians) and to embellish each situation for theatrical enhancement. "Typical" events included acts known as Bison Hunt, Train Robbery, Indian War Battle Reenactment, and the usual grand finale of the show, Attack on the Burning Cabin, in which Indians attacked a settler's cabin and were repulsed by Buffalo Bill, cowboys, and Mexicans.
A more specific historical event in the show might have been a reenactment of the Battle of Little Bighorn also known as "Custer's Last Stand". This event was made into a famous act performed in the show, with Buck Taylor starring as General George Armstrong Custer. In this battle, Custer and all men under his direct command were killed. After Custer is dead, Buffalo Bill rides in, the hero, but he is too late. He avenges Custer by killing and scalping Yellow Hair (also called Yellowhand) which he called the "first scalp for Custer".[7] This reenactment is exciting for the audience and also stresses Buffalo Bill's importance, as it suggests that were he to ride in on time, Custer and his men may have been saved.
Shooting competitions and displays of marksmanship were commonly a part of the program. Great feats of skill were shown off using rifles, shot guns, and revolvers. Most people in the show were all good marksmen but many were experts. Buffalo Bill himself was an excellent marksman. It was said that nobody could top him shooting a rifle off the back of a moving horse. Other star shooters were Annie Oakley, Lillian Smith, and Seth Clover.
The show also demonstrated hunts executed by Buffalo Bill, cowboys, and Mexicans, which were staged as they would have been on the frontier, and were accompanied by one of the few remaining buffalo herds in the worlds. "People throughout North America and Europe who had never seen buffalo before felt the rush of being in the middle of the hunt."[8]
Animals also did their share in the show through rodeo entertainment, an audience favorite. In rodeo events, cowboys like Lee Martin would try to rope and ride broncos. Broncos are unbroken horses that tend to throw or buck their riders. Other wild animals they would attempt to ride or deal with were mules, buffalo, Texas steers, elk, deer, bears, and moose. Some notable cowboys who participated in the events were Buck Taylor (dubbed "The First Cowboy King"), Bronco Bill, James Lawson ("The Roper"), Bill Bullock, Tim Clayton, Coyote Bill, and Bridle Bill.
Races were another form of entertainment employed in the Wild West Show. Many different races were held, including those between cowboys, Mexicans, and Indians, a 100 yd foot race between Indian and Indian pony, a race between Sioux boys on bareback Indian ponies, races between Mexican thoroughbreds, and even a race between Lady Riders.
All in all, the show had a pretty big entourage. It contained as many as 1,200 performers at one time (cowboys, scouts, Indians, military, Mexicans, and men from other heritages), and a large number of many animals including buffalo and Texas Longhorns. Performers in the show were often popular celebrities of the day. Some of the recognizably famous men who took part in the show were Will Rogers, Tom Mix, Pawnee Bill, James Lawson, Bill Pickett, Jess Willard, Mexican Joe, Capt. Adam Bogardus, Buck Taylor, Ralph and Nan Lohse, Antonio Esquibel, and "Capt. Waterman and his Trained Buffalo". Even more famous were Wild Bill Hickok and Johnny Baker. Wild Bill Hickok was well known as a gunfighter, marshal and was an established dime novel hero, like Buffalo Bill. His name on the playbill gave a great draw of audiences because they knew him from dime-novels, and he was a genuine scout. Johnny Baker was nicknamed the "Cowboy Kid" and considered to be Annie Oakley's boy counterpart. Cody originally took him on in the show mainly because he would have been the same age as his own dead son, but little Johnny Baker turned out to be a great success, was very skilled and ended up becoming the arena director.
The list of famous Wild West Show participants was not limited to men. Women were also a large part of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show and attracted many spectators. In fact Annie Oakley, one of the show's star attractions was a woman. Born Phoebe Ann Moses, Oakley first gained recognition as a sharpshooter when she defeated Frank Butler, a pro marksman at age 15, in a shooting exhibition. She became the star attraction of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show for 16 years, under the management of Frank Butler, whom she ended up marrying. Annie was billed in the show as "Miss Annie Oakley, the Peerless Lady Wing-Shot". She was also nicknamed "Little Sure Shot" by Chief Sitting Bull, who was also in the show. Annie was renowned for her trick shots. Annie was able to, from 30 paces, split the edge of a playing card, hit center of ace of spades, shoot down a playing card tossed in air, shatter glass balls thrown in air, hit dimes held between Butler's fingers, shoot an apple out of poodle's mouth and shoot off the butt of cigarette from Butler's mouth. She also performed the last trick shooting the cigarette out of Crown Prince Wilhelm's mouth in Berlin. Her most famous trick was a mirror trick in which she hit a target behind her shooting backwards using a mirror for aim. These incredible feats of marksmanship amazed and excited people and she generated huge audiences eager to see the display
Calamity Jane (or Martha Cannary) was another distinguished woman participant of the show. Calamity Jane was a notorious frontierswoman who was the subject of many wild stories- many of which she made up herself. In the show, she was a skilled horsewoman and expert rifle and revolver handler. She also claimed to have a love affair with Wild Bill Hickok (and that she was married to him and had his child), which he denied and there is no proof of. Calamity Jane appeared in Wild West shows until 1902, when she was reportedly fired for drinking and fighting. Other mentionable females in the business were Lillian Smith and Bessie and Della Ferrel
Native Americans were also a part of Cody's show. The Native Americans who took part in the show were mostly Plain Indians like the Pawnee and Sioux. They participated in staged "Indian Races" and historic battles, and often appeared in attack scenes attacking white in which their savagery and wildness was played up. They also performed talented dances, such as the Sioux Ghost Dance. In reality the performance of the ghost dance meant that trouble was brewing and about to break out, but it wasn't portrayed as such in the show. The Native Americans always wore their best costumes and full war paint. Cody treated them with great respect and paid them adequately. The extent of his respect was demonstrated when named the Native Americans as "the former foe, present friend, the American".[citation needed] Audiences were impressed by the presence of Native Americans in the show because they were extraordinarily "simultaneously exotic and accessible people".[9]
Native Americans in the show also had their claim to fame, the best known being Chief Sitting Bull. Sitting Bull joined the show for a short time and was a star attraction alongside Annie Oakley. It was said that he only agreed to join the show because he was fascinated with Annie Oakley and Buffalo Bill assured him that if he joined, he could see her perform all the time. During his time at the show, Sitting Bull was introduced to President Grover Cleveland, which he thought proved his importance as chief. He was friends with Buffalo Bill and highly valued the horse that was given to him when he left the show. Other familiar Native Americans names who performed in the show were Chief Joseph, Geronimo, and Rains in Face (who reportedly killed Custer).
Buffalo's Bill's Wild West Show continued to captivate audiences and tour annually for a total of 30 years (1883–1913). After opening on May 19, 1883 in Omaha, Nebraska, the show was on what seemed to be a perpetual tour all over the east of America. The show "hopped the pond" in 1887 for the American Exhibition, and was then requested for a command performance at Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887 at Windsor Castle, in England. The whole troop including 200 passengers plus 97 Natives, 18 buffalo, 181 horses, 10 elk, 4 donkeys, 5 longhorns (Texas steers), 2 deer, 10 mules, and the deadwood concord stagecoach crossed the Atlantic on several ships. They then toured England for the next six months and the following year returned to tour Europe until 1892. With his tour in Europe, Buffalo Bill established the myth of the American West overseas as well. To some Europeans, the Wild West show not only represented the west, but all of America. He also created the cowboy as an American icon. He gave the people of England, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, and Germany a taste of the wild and romantic west.
In 1893 the show performed at the Chicago World's Fair to a crowd of 18,000. This performance was a huge contributor to the show's popularity. The show never again did as well as it did that year. That same year at the Fair, Frederick Turner, a young Wisconsin scholar, gave a speech that pronounced the first stage of American history over. "The frontier has gone", he declared.[10]
The Lussiure New of England predicted "The Business will degenerate into the hands of men devoid of Buffalo Bill's exalted simplicity, and much more eager to finger the shillings of the public that to shake the hand of Mother Nature."[11] By 1894 the harsh economy made it hard to afford tickets. It did not help that the show was routed to go through the South in a year when the cotton was flooded and there was a general depression in the area. Buffalo Bill lost a lot of money and was on the brink of a financial disaster. Soon after, and in an attempt of recovery of monetary balance, Buffalo Bill signed a contract in which he was tricked by Bonfil and Temmen into selling them the show and demoting himself to a mere employee and attraction of the Sells-Floto Circus. From this point, the show sadly began to destroy itself. Finally, in 1913 the show was declared bankrupt. "Cody was forced to take his tents down for the last time".[12]
Western shows "generated a passion for Western entertainment of all kinds."[13] This passion is still evidenced in western films, modern rodeos, and circuses. Western Films in the first half of the 20th century filled the gap left behind by Wild West shows. The first real western, The Great Train Robbery was made in 1903, and thousands followed after. Contemporary rodeos also still exist today as major productions, still employing the same events and skills as cowboys did in Wild West Shows.

Written by: Dewayne Hankins
The stadium is not situated in a ground-level bowl like most of the prototypical minor-league ballparks of today; it's built completely above ground. Therefore, there is no berm seating in the outfield but there are two patio areas, one in right field and one along the third base line. The stadium has one deck of individual club seats. The main-level concourse offers no view to the action on the field and the only coverage from the elements is a small sheltered area behind home plate.
The concourse is also nontraditional by today's standards because it sits at field level. There are concession stands built into the structure of the bowl directly under the seating area.
You can take a painfully slow elevator up to the third level, which has the team offices, souvenir stand and press box, or the fourth-floor suite level. Situated above the stadium is the suite area, which connects with the stadium's other central perk, the bar area.
Herschel Greer Stadium will, of course, forever live in baseball lore for its guitar-shaped scoreboard. Years from now when the Sounds are playing at their riverfront stadium, photos of old Greer Stadium will feature the unique scoreboard. It's definitely the first thing you notice as you walk to your seat. It's clear that the Sounds have squeezed just about every possible amenity they can out of Greer Stadium. The stadium is simply outdated for today's version of Minor League Baseball, with unfriendly concourses and an undesirable location on the outskirts of Nashville.CONCESSIONS
Not only have the Sounds taken on Brewers' minor leaguers in the newest player-development contract, but they have also adopted some of the team's menu items as well. One stand offers the Milwaukee-style "Vondersnitzel" bratwurst to complement their Black Angus hot dogs and Chicago-style dogs. They have just about everything on the menu including Chick-Fil-A chicken and fried cheesecake.
There's a children's play area near the third base side in the parking lot, but Greer Stadium is not really configured to cater to children.
Because the ballpark is wide open with no obstructed views, there isn't a bad seat in the house. The right-field patio deck provides a unique view because it's situated at field level. There are a small section of bleachers on the first base side but every other seating area has individual box seats. We didn't get a chance to go to the fourth-floor suites, but they sit high above the field.
The stadium sits alone on the outskirts of downtown Nashville but Broadway, the main strip, is only a few minutes away by car and certainly defines the Nashville experience. Live bands play at almost every bar and street corner.

A judge has given a dose of cold water to the hot sauce Sriracha, saying the factory that manufactures the trendy condiment must partially shut down after neighbors complained of the spicy smells it was producing.
Judge Robert H. O'Brien on Tuesday ruled in favor of the city of Irwindale where Sriracha recently relocated, saying sauce maker Huy Fong Foods must stop any operations that could be causing the odors and make changes to mitigate them.
The Los Angeles Times reports that O'Brien's injunction does not specify what types of actions are required or force the factory to shut down altogether.
Huy Fong Foods had argued there is no reason to close the plant now because harvest season for red-hot Jalapeno peppers, the sauce's key ingredient, has passed.

Look! An Apartment That Doubles an Art Gallery
Over the weekend, we went to an art show in an unlikely place: a one-bedroom apartment. Bill Gross is the mind behind 65 Grand, a West Town living space that features rotating shows. When he hosts an exhibition, Bill moves everything out of the kitchen and front room and hides it behind a wall, transforming his home into a blank canvas for emerging artists...
In the kitchen, a temporary countertop covers the stove and creates a surface for postcards and takeaway materials. Painted slate blue floors contrast with white walls, creating a clean backdrop for artworks. Although small, the apartment is a welcoming space that provides a nice counterpoint to traditional art galleries and gives artists a chance to exhibit their works in an unconventional environment.
The show, Post Scarcity, is curated by Thea Liberty Nichols and includes performance art and sculptural works by Eliza Fernand, Monica Herrera, and Jodie Mack. For more information about current and upcoming shows at 65 Grand, click here.

I went to something like this in brooklyn, although the space would also rotate. So, my understanding was that it was something like rotating curators with rotating artists in rotating apartment galleries. It was really well done, and a nice alternative to the mainstream gallery scene.
I suggest going to the Pilsen East Artist Open House for more of unusual artist loft/gallery spaces.
So if I turn my home into a rotating art gallery, I can have cute hipster types come over....
